NO. 9-THE LAST WEEK

This is my last week at the thea ter. l am not sorry. although I am glad of the experience it has been. l came straight from country town to the most sophisticated spot on earth. The cCrncr e. BroadN ay and Forty-secCnd-st, New York-and from high school work and waiting on d shop, my occupation changed to the exhibition of myself behind the foot flights.
 i Well-it has not hurt me. It has not helped me greatly either except that everything we can learn about the world We live in helps us Sometimes it helps us to know what we do not want to do. l realize that thousands of girls would give their very souls for the Opportunity I've had. 1 suppose al- most every girl in the world has long ed to go on the stage. I do not wish to discourage such girls. That is not altogether But stagework, like any other. is suited to some tempera. ments and not to others. Back Stage Views
 It is not so much the work on tue stage that affected me one way or the other. It is the atmosphere back stage tho ways and the habits Of thought and tho unwhole5omo ambi- tions that the nice girl shrinkS to fall into.

 won't say all, Of course. But am convinced not many girls can hang onto their pure ideals of life if they stay in the environment of "thc show shop"
 The greatest thrill I have had out of it is the experience of sending home some money to mother. I shall never forget the joy 1 had standing in the postoffice buying that money order No banker turning a deal in the high finance ever got d deeper thrill than l did out of that, or q greater sense of triumph. l was not sorry l hadn't bought clothes with the money, as one of the girls urged me.

Worth lD@iTa@
BY OR. JAMES |. VANCE

It is bad to forget what God has done for us. To save his country from such ingratitude. Kipling wrote his "Recessionai."
 Is it not also bad to forget what our soldiers and sailors have done for us? It is in order for some Am erican p1et to write a recessionaI to save Americans from that kind of ingratitude.
 Are we forgetting the sacrifices made by the men who fought the war. Have We gone back to our money-grubbing with such absorp- ticn that the story of trr heroism of the trenches and No Mans Land no longer StirS us?
 The other day I buried soldier. His breast was covered with medals he had won for distinguished serv. ice. The flag of. his country drapsd the coffin as we moved through the streets of the city to the cemetery. But less than a score of people gath e9ed about the grave as wo laid 2 here's body to it's final rest
 We must not forget go s0on We must never forget Ii will De a gloomy day for our country when we cease 10 honor the memory of those who have topardized fortune and risl1cd life for the flag
 The war drums gre silent and the battle flags are furled, but the valor of a soldier is not less glorious be. cause the field on which hg fought has Zen won.

A WORD TO THE FARM
ERS ABOUT BEAUTI-
Full HARDIN HEIGHTS

1t is duty of every farmer to give
his children the best possible educa-
ton. Mr.. Farmer, in the near fu-
ture, you will want to move to Mexico
for that purpose. You will want the
advantages of her good schools,
churches, and so forth, and to live
among her cultured, hospitable people.
Therefore it is highly important that
you attend the auction sale of Hardin
Heights at P. NJ, next Thursday
Home sites, convenient to all these
advantages will be sold at public auc-
ton and you will be able to buy them
on that date cheaper than they will
ever again be sold. Besides being able
to avail yourself of this opportunity,
it will be big day in Mexico, for we
will entertain the crowd in a unique
manner and everyone is assured
good time. This important sale starts
at P. NJ. Every lot will be sold to

GENERAL CROP
OUTLOOK GOOD
Harvesting of Small Grain
Completed; Yields in Ad-
vance of Estimates.

The general crop situation has
improved steadily emo is very en-
couraging. The harvest OF small
grain is compteted in Texas and Ok
Iahoma and well advanced in Kan
gas. swith results considerably above
the carly estimates. The winter
wheat crop promises tc be above
soc. 000, 900 bushels. and spring wheat
in Montana, the Dakotas and Minne-
sofa is doing well. The acreage OF
both classes oe wheat is Is or 20 per
cent below that of last year, but IL
disaster does not happen TO the crop
IN harvest there is likely to be asi
much grain. including the carry
over, as there was last year. The
lost acreage in wheat is largely in
corn. which has good stand, plenty
of moisture at this time and is we'll
advanced. There Is more than tho
usual amount of old grair in farm
crs hands 80 much in fact that tho
problem of where to put the new
crop is troubling the rural communt-'
ties out West. The advice Of au-
thorities is to stack the small grain
and postpone threshing until the
grararies are cleared. Threshing
has begun in the Southwest and thu
first reports are of fine quality and
good yield.
