the presence of mind to protect his

EVERYBODY ORGANIZES

Business men have strong organ
izations and combinations. Labor
has its unions. Even bod carriers
and other unskilled labOrers realize
they must get together if they are
to get a fair deal and q living
wage.
The farmer still tries TO stand a.
lone. Just why he does and will not
organize for his own protection and
his own advancement is one of the
big problems which remains unsolv-
ed. If the farmers of neighbOrhoods
would organize and then stay organ
lied the country would be remade
in very short order.

An officer home on leave took his wife
to the seaside. When his leave was UT
he left her there and came up to his
home for the night to sleep, leaving his
house early the next day to return to the
front.
The postgirl brought 4 letter a few
minutes after he had gone. marked ''ur-
gent" and addressed to him. A neighboT
told the postgirl that he had departed
and readdressed 1t to him.
The mail boat was lost in the channel
but the mails were saved and the letter
came back, was again taken over by the
same neighbor and again posted to the
front.
one morning the officer was in the
dread act OF going over the top when the
letter was handed to him and this Is what
it said; Dear George-Be sure TO tell

New York.-America as a land of
opportunity even for street waits,
orphans and foundlings was recalled
by the recent death in Sitka, Alaska,
of John G. Brady, former governor
of that territory, and the fact that
when a child young Brady had been
taken from an almshouse and placed
in the custody of the Children's Aid
society of New York, which edu-
Gated him and placed him on the
road to fame and fortune.
Hundreds of other cases similar
to Ex-Governor Brady's it is said,
could be cited by the organization
which for more than half century
has been taking homeless boys and
girls off city streets and sending
them to farms in the west where
they grew up to be self-reliant,
trustworthy and honored citizens,
A certain delicacy surrounds the
publication of the names of the
more noted of these former waits
but the report of the Children's Aid
society for 1918 shows the following
