The cotton planters are getting
down to business. The New Orleans
convention has worked out plans for
organizing a $1OO,OOO,OOO cotton ex-
port financing corporation, and if the
plans 60 through the south will in
a measure be able to control its great
est money crop. Five or ten years ago
the organization of such gigantic
corporation would have been an i'm
possible task The money could not
have been raised. But there is a vast
difference in the financial condition
of the south todav and five o: ten
years ago. The south is out oi debt.
Millions of dollars worth of mort
cages held by money lenders in the
north have been lifted. and the an
nual interest the south has been pay
ing on these loans will more than Off
Sc. the aggregate amount that must
be raised to finance the cotton cor
poration. AS Senator Smith well said
at the New Orleans convention 'for
so years we have lived under a cloud.
We were robbed Of capital and credit
after the war between the states. But
they could not rob us of the spirit
that has always characterized the
white man of the south. Let us say
this is the army of emancipation.
Give the farmer a chance so that he
can finance his own crop. When you
have done that you will have eman-
cipated the south" If the cotton ex-
port financing corporation is conduct
ed along the right lines it will eman-
cipate the south. Not only will it
help the farmer to market his crop
gradually but it will enable him to
hold it until he can get legitimate
profit above the cost of production.

In spite of the tax trouble in which
many cities are wallowing. there are
some notable exceptions. One of these
is Akron, o. While large number
of the cities of Ohio are wondering
where to get the money to make up
for the loss of liquor license revenue

Nothing on earth did it except good
financial management. No city need
be hard up if politicians are not per-

LANDING STA ZION

Last Satulda! Ernest Hightowsr
the orlnglnator OF the North Ameri.
ca Air association, and Lieutenant
A. z. Sager, appeared before the Glen.
wood Chamber of Commerce and for A
second time presented their plan for
the establishment of the first through
trans continental air line from New
York to San Francisco.
This association is incorporated IN.
der the laws of the state of Missouri.
and Mr.. Hightower contends that it is
the pioneer booster organization, a
good roads organization, operating IN
the air. They are asking the citizens
of all the towns benefited to bs.,,,e
members of the association to che
minimum extent of 20 members and the
maximum extent of 100 members. at
$40 per share or membership.
The plan 10 to establish and def N.
itely locate and map the first trans.
continental route, with landing fields
at convenient intervals, which route
will be used by tras continental pilots,
and that, too, in the very near future,
according to the prediction of these
gentlemen.
Mr.. Lucas. has signed lease for th,
polo grounds, which all pronoun,. an
ideal landing field, and this is =. be
known as Colorado station No. l3,
After the Chamber Of Commerce paye
its approval to the proposition, the
$3.50 required was easily raised and
Glenwood is now ON the official trans
continental route of tho association
and will 50 appear on all their maps
and other literature.
1t must be patent to every reader
and student that aerial navigation is
to become . practical reality in the

HOT SOUP WITH
SCHOOL LUNoHss

The school board for school district
No. 1, acting in harmony with the Red
Cross community health nurse, has
made provision whereby all children
coming from the country to our schools
may be provided At MONDAY with hot
soup which may be eaten with the
otherwise cold luncheon.
The Post. asked Mss Simmons, the
public health nurse, to make some
statement of the new plan which has
been inaugurated, and this is her ex-
PLANTATION of the movement:
Hot soup is being served at noon
at the grade school for the benefit Of
the children who cannot get home for
their dinner, those coming from the
country or q distance too great to Al
low them time to eat a proper lunch
after reaching home, especially in bad
weather.
The soup which will be varied from
day to day, thruout the winter, is
made by Mrs. Leah Allen, from the
choicest soup bones and contains a
quantity of nourishing vegetables
each pupil coming in for his share OF
soup meat, vegetables and barley, ma
caroni, etc., with crackers in addition.
1t is our purpose to charge each child
ten cents each day, which will be no
more than sufficient to cover the cost
of the materials which 60 to make up
the soup. Also he is requested to pro-
vide himself with his own soup bowl.
1t might be well to remind the parents
that we expect the children to bring
their own lunch to eat, something in
addition to the soup.
The pupils are served and supervised
by Mrs. Allen during the noon hour
and it is the intention that things
shall be as cheerful and comfor table
as possible for them. Her services are
being paid for by the school board.
The Red Cross is furnishing certain
necessary equipment.
It is highly important that growing
children receive the proper amount of
nourishment and that the noon mesl,
thruout the cold winter months be ser
we'd hot and palatable as well Is noar-
ishing. Too much stress cannot be laid
upon this fact.
The aim of the Red Cross thruout
the entire country is to promote
health and make stronger boys and
girls. If we would prevent disease, the
resistance of the individual must be
kept up to the standard. That cannot
be done without the proper amount
Of the right kind Of nourishment.
The kind Of food child has today,
determines to q considerable extent,
the fitness Of the future citizen. Those
who direct the feeding of the child
have responsibility which cannot be
overlooked.
A child should not be allowed to
make his entire meal from one or two
articles. He needs variety of foods
to supply all kinds Of growing mater
ials He cannot develop normally un-
less he has this variety.
"Food Habits" Should start TODAY.

GOODS CRITICISM OF
OHRISIIAG SCIENCE

OERIsTIAM SCIENCE
Dear Editor Of the Glenwood Post:
We have read in your issue Of Nov
ember l. The article by Stuart Booth
who comes as q savior to his "vtraw
man., Cook G. g. B. And as the cham
pion Of Eddy-truth, he certainly Is q
very appropriate representative, for
the readers will observe that the very
first statement Of his article 10 false,
for my article set nothing up bus the
true sayings of Cook who with his
other false statements declared that
Mrs. Eddy had more than faith, which
II true would make her something
more than Christ, who through faith
framed the worlds of the universe,
70 that things which arc seen wers
mot made Of things which do appear
tHeb. 11:8) The sayings Of Cook are
Christian Science and I quoted them
as such, without any qualification,
meeting the issue square; SO If Cook is
go straw man.. He like Booth 10 the
product Of Christian Science.
First show yourself Mr.. Booth,
lover of the whole gospel Of Jesus
Christ, show US perfect honesty IL
your writing, before you pose - .
spiritual teacher. I havs found Chris
tian Science writers very skillful in
the art of evasion. Mr.. Booth quotes
from Genesis as though he respects
the authority viz: "And God saw ev-
erything that he had made and behold
it was very good". But Mr.. Booth has
omitted telling us that the very good
people were before the temptation
and sin of Eden. Very good man had
not yet been tempted BY the devil
and had not sinned as recorded in
Genesis 8. Man was made very good
and left free to obey God or disobey
Is he might choose to do. And being
tempted of the old serpent, the Devil
he sinned and became subject to sick
ness and death. Christ in this parable
admits the son Of man sowed good
seed in his field (the world), but
says, can enemy came and sowed tares
and went his way. Thus we learn
that the Devil is the author and father
of those who will not accept the Lords
truth. The deception Of the Devil
caused change not only of the hu-
man race but the whole kingdom of
the world as first given to Adam.
Jesus tells us "While men slept his
enemy came and sowed tares among
the wheat and went his way" Adam
and Eve were as yet asleep to the
knowledge of good and evil (before
the transgression) and the whole ha-
man race were asleep in Adam aud
Eve when the serpent whispered his
Christian Science lie to the woman,
"Ye shall not surely die: For Gpd
doth know that in the day ye eat
thereof then your eyes shall be opened
and ye shall be as Gods knowing goo
and evil.'' r
And after the tranagression the Lord
said to us all in Aoam, because thou
has hearkened unto the voice of thy
wife-Cursed is the ground for thy
sake; lido you see the changeN in sor-
row shalt thou eat of it all the days
of thy life." And the Spirit Of Satan
also entered into every living thing Of
the kingdom given to Adam, even the
little birds devour and rob one another.
Our Lord says, "The tares are the
CHI 'dren of the wiched one.';. Matt.

church answer.
Yours for the whole truth,
