time and again, to soil their dainty hands witt

Then consider another class of polished Euro
peans-those who foremost in the field of the
intellect the great scientists, novelists poets and
musicians. Do thely think it vulgar to chase "the
almighty dollar?" Cast you eye over a list of the
lecturers who have been touring the country during
the last year and note the number of European
savants among them.
1t appears that almost the first think that comes
into their minds after they have acquired fame is to
visit the United States and gather in some of our
vulgar dollars by exhibiting themselves for gem
erous price of admission, Their there are those who
would starve by the thousands were it not for the
generosity of American wealth
There nothing essentially vulgar in a desire to
make money. The only true test of whether a peo-
pie is vulgar is to be found in manners. And it is
confidently submitted that Americans are inferior
to none in this respect
We may uack. perhaps, some of that courtliness
and superficial elegance for which certain European
nations noted but we do not lack the qualities
that are really of consequence in a gentleman or
lady
No country excels this in the considerable regard
that is shown for the rights and feelings of others
in the treatment that is accorded wom-
en- children, old persons and those who through no
fault of their own are more less defenseless
against abuse and injustice

THE GREATEST BOOK.

Even those who do not accept the Bible as the
word of God cannot fail to be impressed by the
enormous demand for it from all parts of the
world that is disclosed by the of the
rotary of the American Bible Society to the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church that 10000 900
copies of the Good Book were produced last year.
One would imagine that by this time nearly every
person who wanted a Bible would have been sup
piled with one, and that the new copies issued
would be called for principally replace others
which had been worn out or lost. 1t is inferred
however, from the Bible Society officials remarks
that large number of the new Bibles 80 to people
lacking previous acquaintance with the book
1t is announced, for example, that the transla-
ton of Holy Writ into the Mandarin language of
China-a work which has been under way for 25
years-has just been completed This opens a new
market-or new field, if prefers not to look
upon it commercial undertaking-for the dis
trbution of many millions of Bibles Viewed simply
as business however. the publication of Bibles is
impressive. Sales in 1918, the last year for which
fairly accurate figures available, passed the
$4,000, 900 mark
a society of travelling statesmen known as the
Gideons has placed half million Bibles in hotel
rooms that were not as yet supplied One million
Bibles were distributed among the soldiers of the
American expeditonary forces. With the Scriptures
issued ii such quantities as these it is no wonder
that Prof William Lyon Phelps Of Yale University
finds that the young men with whom he comes in
contact are much better acquainted with the book
than were the youth of a quarter of a century ago
That the world should be familiar with the Bible
is desirable for reasons apart from religious con-
sideratons. Treated simply a code of ethics
Christianity promotes the advance of civilization
while the Bible literature is worthy the study of
all. Its wide and increasing circulation is gratifying

NEW CROP OF ALFALFA
NOW BEING MARKETED

Artesia, n. NJ. May 26.-The
first carload of tho new crop of
alfalfa has been shipped from this
station, and the crop is now being
rapily marketed. The dry weather
has prevented stains and every load
brought in has graded No. /. The
crop got a late start, owing to the
uncommonly cool weather OF early
spring, but 1t is growing rapidly
with the advent of warm weather,
and sufficiently irrigated meadows
will produce the customary yield
and quality. The present price paid
TO growers is $3.50 per ton.
Wool enough to load a car has
also been received and it is
claimed to be the first car of wool
marketed in the Pecos valley this
season. 1t is the beginning of an
estimated clip of a half million
pounds that will be shipped from
this station. The price paid was so

My Dear Sir:-I was very much

greatest respect for both Mr. Ran
kins ability and integrity. In my
judgment Mr.. Rankin will be a
great asset in the preparation of n

done. However, | deplorc the idea
that the first question for Mr.. Ran
kin to answer is one regarding the
expenditure of the river improve
ment funds for the past ten years.
For heavens sake don't let us have
another investigation. If mistakes
have been made during the past
ten years, they have been mis-
takes of judgment, mistakes which
we the people were responsible
for in electing the men to office
who made them. If they were not
mistakes of judgment, then let "A
court of competent jurisdiction
make the Investigation. What we
want now is an intelligent pro-
gram for the future. Let us quit
holding postmortems. Let us have
a diagonis of the patient as it is
today and plan a treatment for its
recovery. For the past twenty
years to my personal knowledge a
great deal of energy has been ex-
pended in criticiZing what had
been done in the past. Let us now
turn over a now leaf and begin
making a definite plan toward
which all departments of county
government may work. The peo-
pie have confidence in Edmund
Ross, county engineer: Captain
Gladding, city manager. and Don
Rankin. All three are competent
engineers. II they are given a free

And, only that there was hollow

been made soaking wet. But they
took shelter in the tree until the
rain was over.
But when they started to leave
the island, to wade to shore, they
could not. The brook had been
made so high and deep by the sud
den shower that it could not be
waded.

stepped out of the bark canoe.
And never again tell me your
