CANNING Factory at Aekisy.

\Ackley. Jan. ga bit OF stir has
been created locally by what appears
to be a proposition from Dyersvilie,
looking to the establishments OF a corn
packing plant in Ackley. 1t is claimed
for the gentlemen that they have tho
money to establish such an industry
and all that is desired here is that the
people induce tho farmers to agree to
plant 1000 acres to sweetcorn. THIS
requirement canSbe met easily. Ackley
people will readily embrace such an
opportunity.

The Life Of Abraham Lincoln.
By Anice Eriksen. Age 10. Boelus. Neb.
In q log cabin in the backwoods
of Kentucky, Abraham Lincoln was
born on February IL, 1909.
He spent the earlier part OF his
life in Kentucky. At the age Of
7 the family moved to Indiana.
The rest OF his boyhood days were
spent here in poverty and hard
labor. He left the farm later and
moved to Illinois where he became a
student OF law.
In later years he became a mem
Der OF the legislatu of Illinois and
afterwards a member Of congress.
He gained his first national repu-
tation in 1858 in the Lincoln-Doug-
lass debate.
At the beginning of the Civil war
(l861-l865), he was elected presi-
dent, where he served through the
war until his death in 1865. Lincoln
is one of Americas greatest men
in literature. His Gettysburg ad-
dress is one of his famous writings.
President Lincoln was a man who
will not be forgotten.

The Flowers Thanks.

By Loretta May Fox. Age u. Gretna. Seb.
Dear Busy Bees: This is the first
time / have written to you. l am 60
ing to write story about "The
Flowers Thanks"
A little flower lay dropping on the
ground under an August sun. For
days there had been no rain. The
earth was dry and hard. The little
flower had Held up its open mouth
for rain, but no rain had come.
And now it was dying of thirst.
As it lay dying a shadow passed
over the sun. The air became dark.
Heavy thunder rolled. Flashes Of
lightning chased each other across
the sky. The birds hushed their
singing. The very leaves Of the
trees stood still.
At last two big drops fell at the
root of the flower. A moment, and
then the air was full of'rain drops.
They lifted the dying flower. They
washed it, fed it. and brought it back
to life. When the sun broke through
the clouds, two great tears glistened
on the flowers little cheeks. They
were tears Of thankfulness.
Then the flower lifted up its voice
and said: Thank you. raindrops,
good raindrops, you have saved my
life"
But the raindrops answered:
Thank not us; thank the clouds
they sent us"
Then the flower lifted up its voice
and said: Thank you. clouds, good
clouds. You have saved my life"
But the clouds answered. Thank
not us, thank the sun. 1t saw you
dying and called us from the ocean
. The winds heard you signing and
brought US here to help YOU"
Then the little flower turned to
the wind and the sun. The wind bent
down to the earth and stopped for a
moment to hear its words. The sun
sent down Its beams to receive the
flowers message.
Thank you. wind, good wind"
said the little flower. Thank you,
sun, good sun, you have saved my
life"
Thank not us" said the sun and
the wind; thank the good God. He
saw you dying. He took pity on
you. We, sun, winds. clouds, falling
raindrops, are only the givers Of His
bounty"
And the flower breathed 4 prayer
of thanks to the great and good God.
Well, I must close, for this time.
Yours truly, A FRIEND.
