IMPROVEMENTS
Silo Becoming Popular

Building operations in the county are
practically at q standstill, largely due
to the high cost OF building materials
and shortage Of labor. Consequently
but little assistance could be given
along lines Of farm improvements.
Only d very few asked for suggestions
on building plans and these have been
given material aid .s
One circular letter was gotten out
with reference to silos and that was
during early spring. It urges most en-
phatically the planting Of corn for for
age and especially for silage purposes.
It emphasized that silos could be built
at any time during the year, but now
was the time to plant the corn with
which to fill them. I carried one table
to show capacities Of silos one table
showing number Of head that could be
fed from different capa city silos for six
or eight month periods, and a third
table showing number Of acres of corn,

dren who had been too recently OPP
Grated upon or who could not leave
their beds sat up as best they could
to hear Of the news of the outside
world.
Little white-ciad figures listened to
the glowing accounts brought to them
Of the great life which went on beyond
the ward.
And for every little child who had
to stay In the hospital, Gertrude Hard
ing had brought small present, only
q trifing one, but a remembrance from
the great world.
Then the hospital rules which had
been lifted for a few minutes after
the ones who had been out so late had
come back, were In order again. and
there was silence in the ward, and
soon there would come sleep.
When she got home that evening,
tired but very. very happy, she said
to herself:
"There are born mothers, yesi And
there are born children, tool Chill
dren who need to be loved as much as
women who need children to love. And
though there is a difference between
those Of ones very own, and those
who are not, 1t seems as though no
one who is "born mother" should go
through life, walking blindly by the
many lnotherless children.
"For every childless mother there Is
a motherless child to whom one can
give some Of the love and interest and
the pride which would otherwise 60 to

In her sleep she seemed to hear the
Christmas carol which the hospital lad
had sung and she knew what had been
revealed to her

And then the clown beat upon his
drum and the children all marched
stiffly behind.
When magnificent Santa Claus
asked the children to sing with him
and the voices Of the hospital children
sang out with the rest Gertrude Hard
ing felt herself swelling with pride.
Later when Santa Claus perceived
that one of the hospital children had
an unusually lovely voice he asked
him to sing alone.
And there in the shop he sang, sang |
with the thrill Of happiness that a
bird sings with when first he feels the |
warmth and sweet fragrance Of the
spring.
He had never been asked to sing be- |
fore like this-in big shop where |
people were and where people listened
to him, not because he was being Wis., |
tied in hospital and must do his part |
to entertain the visitors, but because
somehow or other they liked his voice. |
1t rang out true and strong. He |
shifted the crutch which he had never |
been without and which he would nev-
er be without to the end of his days,
and then he was asked to sing an en-
core.
His face was flushed with the pleas
ure Of doing something which was
liked in this big outside world.
He looked at Santa Claus and
beamed.
He had already sung popular song
which he had learned from the squeak
ing talking machine which someone
had given the hospital when it was no
longer fit for the home. and now he
thought he would sing something bet
ter. Somehow he felt it would be
proper, and vaguely perhaps he felt 1t
would show gratitude for Christmas
that went deeper. Dimly he thought
these things.
Someone had taught them a hymn
in the hospital, hymn which he had
always loved. 1t made one feel bet
ter, stronger, happier somehow. It
was very glorious hymn he had al
ways thought.
And he sang:
"It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song Of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harpS Of gold;
Peace on the earth, good will to men,
From heavens all-gracious king;
The world in solemn stiffness lay
To hear the angels sing"
Right to the end Of the hymn he
sang and the people thanked him and
Santa Claus told him it had been love-
ly and gave him a man-like clap on
the back.
Gertrude Harding had felt lump
in her throat and had smiled with
eyes that were misty.
So the angels did bend near the
earth-even In these days-and even
over hospitals where crippled and i'll
children were. 1t was the humans,
not the angels, who forgot and who
went through life not thinkingl
Back to the hospital she took the
children late, late that afternoon. The

THE BIRTH OF
AMERICANISM

The Sulgrave institution, which
maintains Sulgrave Manor, the ances-
trail English home of the Washington
family, as a place of pilgrimage for
Americans, has suggested series of
celebrations this year of historic
events connected with the beginnings
of free institutions in this country.
The three hundredth anniversary of
the departure of the Pilgrims from
Holland, of their sailing for America,
of the signing of the Mayflower COM
pact, and of the landing on the New
England coast, falls within 1920.
More than forty other societies and
national organizations have joined in
this appeal, which deserves the atten-
ton of all those who value American
institutions and the basic principles of
American development.
These principles are being rudely
challenged by alien ideas and propa-
ganda. Liberty and the free associa-
ton of men to protect their essential

! Schools to educate mothers for
their profession have been establish
ed by the travelling instructors IN
home hygiene, who circuit throughout
the division organizing classes upon
demand.
Motherhood is an unstandardized
vocation. Mother does not have to
pass examinations on her fitness to
keep her family healthy and comfort
able. If she is lucky, her children
thrive and her sick folk recover in
spite of her work. She realized her
lack of knowledge. She seeks expert
advice on baby dietetics. She trusts
the family physician in illness. But
in towns and rural communities, far
from outside help, she is forced to find
her own salvation. She is makeshift
nurse and amateur doctor because she
is forced to be.
Her Red Cross school is not forced
on her but classes are organized at her
request. When she has the Is lessons
comprising the course, she will know
about the causes and prevention of
sickness, bateriology, ventilation and
cleanliness. baby care, methods Of TAX

the revolutionary desires of unruly aaa
aggressive minorities. The ideal OF
the social and political Jewelers. of the

lutism, set up and maintained by sheer
force.
Our orderly progress for 800 years
has been based on gradual broaden
ing of the principle that the majori-
ty shall rule, with due regard to the
primary rights of individuals. This Is
still the American faith. It is on trial
today. But the more it is tested the
more strikingly will its fundamental
soundness be brought home to Ameri~
cans. 1t is good time to recall AM
erican history and ideals and to evoke
the incidents which figured in the
birth of our new matured American
spirit and conference.-the York

The knowledge of the proper nutri-
ton, of sanitation and hygiene and of
elementary nursing procedure is now
recognized for the maintenance of
high health standards. To protect
their homes, hundreds of women thru
out the Northern Division have en-
rolled in the Red Cross classes in
Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick.
Through such training they have
learned to shield their households
from preventable disease and by in
telligent .sickroom methods to hasten
the recovery of their sick.
Americanization through the agency
of these home courses is practicable
for every community, where foreign
women and native born meet with the
common bond of home and children.
The need of this work, shown by the
findings of the draft boards which dis
covered so many young men hamper
ed by faulty health upbringing, re-
ports concerning children in schools
which have medical inspection, have
forced the knowledge that American
sanitary standards, universal in the
DRY are not so in fact, so the Red
Cross classes, touching the foreign
mother so vitality, not only bring her
in touch with our language and Gus
toms, but build sturdy Americans for
the next generation.

classes may be referred to your local

dule courses in this center if there is
