THE PASSING OF CYRIL

As / was walking to the subway

ing a man turned a corner sharply
and bumped into me.
Hello, Toni he exclaimed as we
both recioled from the collision.
For a moment | did not know him
he was so changed-the next in
slant | tried to make up for this by
the warmth of my greeting. He was
Cyril Sutherland, an old-time beau
Of Dots.
But it was a different Cyril, no
longer the dapper young chap who
kept about six months ahead of the
fashions, well groomed, happy-go-
lucky, debonair. There was hang
dog expression about his face;
| could not help noticing that his ell
bows were shiny and his cuffs were
ragged.
Poor Cyril! / had always except
for one spell of jealousy-liked him;
his good nature in fact, had made
him a favorite everywhere Perhaps
as the saying is, he had been his own
worst enemy. He was easy-going, af-
fable-a little lazy, too.
/ knew that for the past few years
he had drifted from job to job with
out staying very long in any one po-
sition. Now, he told me, he was a
book agent.
1t was late and I had to hurry
into the subway, but | urged him to
come to see us. and he promised to
do so. Yet / realized he would never
come.

Not far from where | live stands

grade crossing and prevent people
from getting run over by the trains.
| | stopped one day and talked with
him and he told me his was not a
care-free life.
He said he had to keep alert all
the time because people took chances
which they had no business to take.
He said that people who came up in
their automobiles expecting to get
across the track sometimes cursed
him for shutting down the gates
when they thought they had plenty
of time.
He said he once shut down the
gates in front of a fOot-passenger,
a man of fifty-five or sixty, and that
the man stopped down and crept
under the gate so as to gain five
seconds of time, and was standing
on one track watching the train 60
ing east upon another track, and that
he would have been killed by train
coming in the other direction had
not the crossing tender, in peril of
his own life, left the gate, and rush
ed in and jerked him off the track.
he said the man whose life he saw
ed abused him soundly for what he
had done.
l am sure he told me the truth,
He who stands between people and
danger every day has no friends in
the community which he serves. Few
people know him we'll enough to nod
to him. Not once in six months does
any one thank him.
There are several people whose
munity whose experience is similar.

teacher receive in proportion to tx

WOOL GROWERS TO
POOL INTERESTS

The meeting of the Barnes County
Wool Growers association held at Leal
Saturday was attended by about 45
wool growers from over the county.
Methods of handling wool, relations
OF the county wool pool and state
wool pool, ordering of sacks, twine
blankets and other subjects were dis
cussed.
The meeting was called to order by
H. W. Green, president of the Barnes
County Wool Growers association and
director of the State Wool Growers
association. Mr.. Green took up
briefly questions to be discussed at the
meeting. Members of the association
voted to pool their wool this year al
lowing four days for the delivery of
the wool at Leal June q, %, 20, and
80. The wool will be stored in the
warehouse at Leal and on the last day
cars will be loaded and shipped to the
state wool pool warehouse. It was
voted that no insurance should be
carried. The date of the annual meet
ing of the Wool Growers association
was changed from June 4th to May
18th.
Sam Crabbe of Fargo, director of
the state Livestock association, dis
cussed the present situation in regard
to the marketing of wool. He stated
that $1,000 pounds of wool was in
storage in the wool pool at Fargo.
About 1O0, 900 pounds Of this wool has
been sold including the low grades.
Three car loads from the state pool is
; at Philadelphia at present so that it

wool market. Mr.. Crabbe stated that
the wool had all been graded under the
4 wool pool system and it will be posi-
BILE for any buyer to get the quality
or grade which he desires.
! T. x. Calnan discussed the benefits
that may be derived from the pooling
of wool and stated every state in the
union this year that is raising sheep
has a state pool. These state pools
will be federated into national wool
pools and a selling agency organized by
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton will assist in the selling of the
wool. After the discussion by the
county agent the wool growers pres
ent expressed their belief in coopera-
tive commodity marketing.

cure orders for sacks, Irvine and blan-
kets. Nearly so wool blankets made
from North Dakota wool were ordered
at the meeting. The following d.

TELLS If STUDENTS OF
new EXPERIENCES

On Thursday during the chapel per-
iod the students had the pleasure of
renewing their acquaintance with the
head of the Art Department, Miss
Mary G. Deem. Miss Deem has been
in Western New York state on leave
of absence owing to Ill health.
For the first time since she was nine
wears old, Miss Deem was out of
school. However, she told US that
there are certain educational advan-
tages in being out of school. Miss
Deem spent most OF her time in
Springwater, N. Y. She spoke of the
beauty of the region, of Bald Hill
which is almost mountain for it is
145O feet high, Of the forests and
fruit and nut trees. She spoke of the
great waste of fruit owing to the
abundance of it in all localities. Great
quantities of apples, grapes, and pears
are wasted annually.
Miss Deem said the weather is very
damp and foggy and that for a per-
iod of five weeks she never saw the
sun. ~. s .,,.--=.
The people of Western New York,
too, are different from those of the
West. They have their own peculiar
manners Of speech and dress. Most
of them have always lived in New
York and so have their ancestors for
generations back many of whom have
lived on the same farm from genera
ton to generation.

talk very much and were especially
glad to know that she will be able to
resume her duties next fall when the
