mons will be delivered in all American pulpitS on the relation of economic life to religious we'll being, and on the need for saving. This week is designed to emphasize human and social sides of national thrift as we'll as the financial phase of invest ment and saving and national conservation.
 The American Bankers Asso- citation, the Investment Bankers Association and the American Institute of Bankers have all pledged co operetion in the Ma tional Thrift Week program. Pledges of cooperation also in- clude the voluntary offer of busi- ness houses to give a share of their advertising space to spread the propaganda of conservation, and the Red Cross idea to em- phasize it's salvage work. Ma tional Thrift Week is largely a plan of the Saving Division, Treasury Department, Washing ton, D. c.

A NEW BORDER RULING.

Douglas,~Jan.1 12.-The immi. grafton restrictions or at least those of the immigration depart. ment having to do with the in tercourse between border com munities and contiguous points, may be made much less severe in the immediate future. This was the statement made in a letter from Secretary of State Robert Lansing to Congressman Carl Hayden and sent by MT. Hayden as an enclosure in a letter written about other mat terS
 Secretary Lansing said that he had representative at that time in the border district, visit ing Tia Juana, Douglas and many other points for the pur- pose of ascertaining conditions and making recommendation as to possible notifications of pres ent rulings.
 Douglas business men have been making an effort to obtain some ruling of this sort for a cousidera ble period, the present restrictions making transaction of business along the border a difficult matter.
 Who the representative was or when he visited Douglas, was not stated in his letter which in timated however, that be was expecting the return of his mes Senger at any time.

NATIONAL THRIFT WEEK.

The Bureau of Salvage and Shop in the Pacific Division of the American Red Cross has called upon the local Chapter to conduct an active campaign to collect salvage during National Thrift Week, Januory 1725.
 Word has come from Miss Kathleen Booth, Associate Di rector of the Division Bureau at Headquarters in San Francisco, that Salvage and Shop commit tees throughout the Division will celebrate Thrift Week.
 Complete organization for. .sys- tematic saving Chapters in Cali fornia, Nevada and Arizona which put one and one half mil lion dollars into Red Cross treas uries during the war period and up to the present time, is an achievement known throughout the United States. Arthur H. Chamberlain, Educational Direc- tor in the society for Thrift and Chairman of the Committee on Thrift Education in the National Educational Association, called upon the Pacific Division for it's co operation in the National Thrift Week through these local committees.

is made. Three dollars per an nun does not appear exorbitant when compared with 50 cents per month actually paid for the use of the North half of the Baca Float Grant, or the 25 per acre per annum rental asked for the lease of the South half. Approximately 50 per cent of the total receipts are returned to the. State and County for road and school purposes in lieu of taxes.
 It is interesting to note that of the, four alleged shippers. only three hold forest permits and in each of these three cases, no reductions have been made in the number of cattle permitted in past years. If the figures as to the alleged numbers shipped are correct, it is interesting to pote that according to the County Assessors records, taxes are not assessed against any of the parties to the extent of the number shipped. In fact, one of the parties mentioned who is in the city today from his ranch in the San Rafael Valley, denies that he has shipped any cattle recently, nor that he owns the number alleged to have been shipped"

WHY THEY LEAVE THE FARM

Why did you leave the farm, my Lad?
Why did you bolt and leave your dad
Why did you beat it off to town
And turn your poor old father down?
Thinkers of platform, pulpit and
Are wallowing in deep distress.
They seek to know the hidden cause
Why farmer boys desert their Pas.
Well stranger, since you've been 50
frank,
I'll roll aside the hay bank,
I left my dad, his farm, his pillow,
Because my calf became his cow.
left my dad, twas wrong of course,
Because my colt became his horse
I left my dad to sow and reap
Because my lambs became his sheep.
I dropped the hoe and stuck the fork,
Because my pig became his pork,
The garden truck that made grow
Was his to sell. but mine to hoe
It's not the smoke in the atmosphere,
Nor the taste for life that brought
.s.s. one. here, ~
Please tell the platform, pulpit, press,
No fear of toll or love Of dress
Is driving OF the farmer lads,
It's just the methods Of their dads.

Hashish may be reckoned che OF

Herodotus the 'Father of History"
speaks of its use among the ancient
Scythians. and it was doubtless the
drug referred to by Homer as 1.-The

Menelaus. Bayard Tayfor's account
of his sensations on first taking it at
Damascus is memorable. 1t put him
in q state of mental exaltation where
in all sensations as they arose Sug-
gested more or less coherent images
in double form, one physical, the
other spiritual. and the latter reveal

mid was not built Of stone. but OF GIL
gantic blocks OF plug tobaccof For
a moment he writhed In a perfect par
oxysm of laughter at this ludicrous
discovery. Then his senses were raw
ished with delicious perfumes. and
there came to his ears divine melodies
and harmonies such as Beethoven
might have dreamed. Time and space
seemed vastly extended SO that q min
ute seemed an hour and hour a
year, while his friends in the same
room with him seemed miles away. as
though he were viewing them through

Here are two pretty wall pockets to
hang beside or on the dressing table.
ready to hold whatever their owners
choose to put In them. Disks of card
board covered with gayly printed rib
bon make the frivolous and dainty
pocket at the left, and it is suspended
by plain satin ribbon that ends In
small bows at the sides. At the right
two heart-shaped pieces of cardboard
are covered smoothly with red satin
and fastened together. The edges are
finished with narrow putting OF ribbon.
and the same ribbon serves to Sus-
pend the pocket. This smooth and
matter-of-fact affair is evidently in
tended as q gift for a man. Two
hearts with but a single pocket are
quite meaningful. But one might use
a diamond. a spade or even club to
make a similar pocket, and anyone OF
them Will hold q deck OF cards, score
cards, pencils and such things, or pins,
needles, thinble and thread for a
bachelor.
