DR.. PATTERSON HOME.
Prominent West Side Physician and.
Business Man Returns to the
States Erom Franco


States From France.
Captain c. l.. Patterson, of West
Side, who has been serving in France
since last April has returned to the
states and was at home during the
past week, although he expected to
return to New York or Washington
for his final discharge. Speaking of
Captain Patterson, The West Side
Journal says: &I
Hes not quite as fleshy as he used
to be, but looks absolutely fit. His
hair has few more silver threads,
but its wonder it didn't turn white
entirely, because he went through
some real hell at st. Mihiel, Chateau
Thierry and finally the Argonne for
est. With the exception of a very
few days, he was with his regiment
at the front, under constant fire, from
the early part of September until the
armistice was signed on the 18th day
+of November, and to get through that
terrible slaughter safe and sound is
indeed very fortunate. While he looks
we'll and strong, it can be readily no.
ticed that the awful strain has left it's
mark. He has not been discharged
from the service, and will probably
have to return to New York or Wash
ington for short time.

DIRT ROADS

The highway running east and west
Is but sad and sorry jest.
In droughty seasons it will do;
Then motor cars along it choo,
And loaded teams climb up it's hills,
And dislocate no poles or thills.
This is why l sometimes say
The government should do away . -.
With rain and moisture of that stamp,
So that the road may not get damp
For when the water drips and pelts -t 2
That doggone highways simply melts &@g
Like sugar in cup of tea, e t.,
And there's no thoroughfare to see -
Some drowning mules we may behold @ 55 !
And autos from the culverts rolled Wy
And swearing men who ply the Jaw @4ss &1
And say there ought to be a-law pJ@
We've blown in millions, more or less, "
To make the road a big success
We've graded and we've powed and dragged
We've engineered and cussed and Dragged
We've foundered horses by the herd
To make the highway less absurd.
And when the weather's good and dry
1t pleases the esthetic eye;-
It's scraped and mancured so nice
We think it's surely worth the price;
We bowl along it's dusty miles,
Our faces wreathed in beaming Smiles
Then Pluvius uncorks his trough
1t rains, and all the stuff is Off
wonder if We'll ever rise
Unswerving purpose in our eyes,
And build the kind Of roads that last
Through vernal rain and wintry blast?

why Do We r.asssk when Glad.

We laugh when elad because the
things which make ~ laugh combine
tokether to rouse those parts Of the
BODY which are involved IN I. good
laugh TO act Ia q certain harmony, and
when this combination ID arranged In
certain way Il produces a laugh.
Certain things In the world, whether
they are funny. ludicrous, or other
things that produce the laughing ef-
feet. cause the brain to work certain
muscles and nerves in combination
that produces a laugh. The impress
sion which reaches the brain causes
these muscles and nerves to act In
voluntarily and the laugh comes. II
works just like the keys OF the piano.
Some combinations Of notes produces
sad sounds and other combinations
produce glad sounds. but the combi-
nation when once touched will al
ways produce the same sound. II Ia
the impression made on the brain
which start the proper combination.
and 1t does this instantly just q pin
prick in the arm will at once sen /
hurt message to the brain and
cause the brain to jerk the arm away
SO laugh producing combination Of
sounds. or things we see. or feel,
sends an impression to the brain.
which at once sends out the laugh
order. Some things make some peo-
pie laugh, while they do not affect
others at all. That Is because our
brains are not always the same In re-
gard to recording Impressions. Some
things impress some brains one way
and others entirely In a different war

GARDENS OF MINING
PLANT WORTH 100000

The gardens of the employees of
the coal operators OF West Virginia
are object lessons In succession and
inter-cropping of vegetables, says
Roy E. Marshall. horticulturist OF the
extension division, who acted as one
of the committee of judges in award
ing the prizes for the best and most
productive gardens in each of the
twelve plants of the United States
Coal and Coke copany, of Gary.
OF the 1000 families living in
houses of this company. fully $4,000
had vegetable gardens that are much
better than that of the average home
gardener. The value of the products
of these gardens is conservatively es-
timated at 100000. saving TO the
company that was gratifying to the
officials who have labored consist emily
to encourage the miners to grow suf
ficient vegetables to eliminate ship
ments of such products into the plant.
The employees have made the best
possible use of all available yard
space. in front OF the houses, as we'll
as in the rear. When one vegetable
kind was planted in the space occu-
pied by the earlier crop. Thus no
vacant spaces were found in these
'gardens, even in August. The gar
dens were mostly filled with vegeta-
oles of high food value and those per-
hitting of more intensive culture.
Corn. when found, was growing along
the fence about the outsides Of the
gardens, an excellent arrangement to
conserve space. An average OF about
fifteen kinds of vegetables was found
I.in the gardens the first week in Au-
gust.
The different nationalities follow
styles of gardening peculiar to their
nationalities and after the Judging
had progressed a short time 1t was
comparatively easy to differentiate
between them. The first second and
third prizes of the twelve plants were
distributed as follows: Hungarian
3 prizes; American. prizes: Polish
6prizes; negro, prizes Italian, 3
prizes: Slavish, prizes; Austrian
Roumanian and Russian, ! prize each.

We are living in new world. We are
confronted with unprecedented OPP
portunities and responsibilities.
AS we go forward into the new
conditions, we realize afresh our de-
rcndence upon religion. II Is religion
alone that can guide US. Democracy
is safe for itself. and for the world,
only If 1t is developed in 1.-THE fellow
ship OF Jesus Christ. Men are feeling
this as they have not before felt It.
Religion has an opportunity such a.
1t has never had on this earth. The
barriers are down. Mems hearts are
open. They feel the need for Divine
Guidance. They want the church to
lead and inspire. But when they turn
to religion. they are beset with dim
oulties.
Christianity stands before them
divided and disunited When there is
great work to he done they are de-
barred from calling upon the church
because Of her own divisions and OF
the Jealousies which they fear may be
aroused They feel compelled to
create other organizations in order to
keep clear OF sectarian differences.

What Youth Needs.
On the question OF Christian educa-
ton, William e. Gardner, general SEC
rotary OF the board OF religious edu-
cation. has this to say:
The problem of reconstruction IL
dependent upon religious forces. 1t is
the Christian church in the large that
will determine whether there shall be
g Democracy or whether materialism
shall have a temporary triumph. and
kind OF paganism rule In the minds
of men.
ut is the need of the nation for
spiritual ideals which gives to edu :
cational leaders in every Christian
communion new impetus. Whatever
other reasons may exist for organized
Christian educa ton. these three are
pertinent today:
Il. a socialism devoid of Chris
tian principles is making its way in
the life of the world and the nation
20. The youth OF the nation must
be helped to see thse moral issues
of the war which disclose clearly the
results of evil thoughts and acts. and
the rewards OF loyalty to righteous.
ness and justice.
20. All schools and colleges should

Students should be aroused to under
stand Gods righteousness and truth as
the basis OF successful national life.
IF the church people OF Michigan
can help the general convention to
face these three conditions and realize
that what the church puts into its
children will determine it's future. the
convention at Detroit can become a
memorable event"
