Human GOODWILL.

With all your exuberant goodwill
yOu haven't altogether got beyond the
theory that the first cave-dweller be-
slowed on his nelghbor the bone he
himself didn't need, and established
the pleasant relation of benefactor
and beneficiary. 1t gave him such
warm feeling in his heart that he nat
urally wanted to make the relation
permanent First cave-dweller felt a
little disappointed next day when
second cavedweller. instead of COM
ing to him for another bone. preferred
to take his pointed stick and go hunt
ing on his own account. 1t seemed
little ungratefu in him, and first
cave-dweler felt that It would be no
more than right to arrange legislation
In the cave so that it should not hap
pen again. Christian charity is beau
tiful thing, but sometimes it gets mixed
up with these ideas of the cave-dwell-
ers.-Samuel NJ Crothers.

The music lovers of Grangevile and
vicinity We're privileged to enjoy q
highly artistic program last Tuesday
evening when the popular contralto
Miss Marie MOrnsey, of New York
city, assisted by Harold Lyman, futist
entertained their audience with a
choice selection of musical numbers
Miss Morrisev made a charming pie
lure, attired i'm a pink evening gown OF
chiffon and lace. and hc~ inqrutiating
manner at once placed her audience
/ en- rapport with her
Her opening group of numbers, given
/ with The New Edison, demonstrated
( now perfectly this wonderful instru-
ment has recorded her beautiful voice.
For several phrases she would sing i'm
unison with the photograph. then for
% period fcuain silent, but even
though her lips We're motionless, her
dice sang out just as clearly in
aii as strength and beauty.
In two numbers she sang an obhgato
with her own re-creatcd voice and
the effect was delightful To hear one
Marie Morrisey is a treat, but to hear
the same time another voice cor
responding with her in richness and
depth, perfectly matching her own,
end blending with it in wealth of
harmony, produced an indescriba0le eff
feet upon. her listeners.
In 'FIow Comfy Sweet Alton, -
the phonogiaph carried the air and
Miss Morrisey sang the obligato, but
the best trained musician in the audi
ence would have thought that she, her
self, was singing the air
In the midst of one selection, the
lights were turned of for a few NOM
ents to give the audience an oppor-
tunity TO see if they could tell when
she ceased singing. When the lights
came on again her listeners laughed
in chaerin when they found that she
had disappeared, but the rich full
voice was still singing on from the
Edison.
Mr. Lyman $ demonstrations with the
flute and piceolo were just as repark
able, and re-creations of other musical
instruments showed the versatility of
this marvellous sound reproducing in
strument.
The recreation of Anna Case s
Thou Brilliant Bird, with flute OBJ
ligato by Mr. Lyman, was one of the
most enjoyed selections on the pro
gram.
Miss Morrisey's final group, CON
sisting of can Fashioned Town, "
The STAR and "For All Eterni-
ty' was fitting climax to a superb
and evoked storms of APP
plause. Miss Miss Morrisey was given /
splendid support in these numbers
through the accompaniment played
most aristically by Mrs P. M. Clan
Vile.

Stranger Than Fiction.

Among the advertisements on the
first page of an Austrian rural news
paper appears one bridesmaids praise
of the beautiful fresh bread" he dis
tributes, and another BRIDESMAIDS ac-
claim of the beautiful Cavendish ba-
nanas" he has for sale. After reading
further and finding with relief that at
least one individual deals in "beauti-
full art" in this day of post-postism,
one is naturally led to wonder just
when Lewis Carroll was exercising his
Imagination and when he was merely
setting down faithfully what he had
heard when he penned such poems OF
praise as that Alice in Wonderland
lyric which concludes:

u. S. GRAIN GRADING
CIRCUS" is COMING

Federal grain supervision grain
grading circus of the bureau of mar
kets, U. S. department of agriculture,
is spending the month of June i'll
northern Idaho, says County Agricul-
tural Agent r. NJ. Pavey, and will
make several one-day stays in Idaho
county. Right now, before the 1920
harvest season begins, a fine OppOr-
tunity is offered Mr.. Pavey says, to
learn about the fedreal grain stand
ards and their correct applications.
Federal grades for wheat, shelled
corn, and oats are still effective.
Grades for wheat were established be-
fore the grain corporation began its
control of wheat marketing and
whether or not there is a fixed price
established for Grain of the coming
crop, the federal grades VIII continue
to be in force.
With the cooperation of the county
agent, a series of grading demonstra-
tions has been scheduled to show the
actual grading of grain under federal
standards, and especially emphasize
those factors which affect the grade
of the grain growers in this section.
Everyone interested in the grain bust
ness, which includes the grower, it is
said should know the correct method
of making the few demonstrations
which enter into the grades as assign
ed by the licensed inspectors, particu-
larly the dockage and test weight per
bushel determination.
Two representatives Of the federal
grain supervision office Of this district
will be in charge of these onc-day
meetings, bringing standardized equip
ment with them. The county agent
