to undertake the delivery Of telephone
books. I'VE used to go out into the
streets and get the first kids we saw
who weren't busy, to do the Job" says
the manager Of the local telephone
company. "As q result we frequently
found number Of books that had
been thrown away. and their loss was
costly. So now we have the scouts
deliver the books because we can
trust them" Worth while praise that
and worth deserving.

FAILURE OF ORGANIZATIONS
Unless Farmers Remain steadfastIy
Loyal Downfall Can Be Brought
About Quickly.

An association Of men opposed to
farmers cooperative enterprise can
bring about Its downfall very quickly
unless the farmers remain steadfastly
loyal. Many cooperative organIza-
tons have failed through the weak
ness of members who could not resist
the temptation offered Of fraction Of
q cent. When the opposition organiza-
tion puts out bait to catch you, try to
remember 1t is only lure to draw you
from your own friends. Once you
have deserted, the bait Is withdrawn.
Stick to your friends. II you expect
them to stick to you.

MsROONED FOR THREE YEARS
Sailors Long Period on Loneliness on
Small island Located In the
South Seas.

Narrowing occasionally brings about
modern Crusoe; just as 1t did with
Alexander Selkirk, who was put ashore
at Juan Fernandez, and whose adven-
lures gave Defoe the foundation for
"Roblnson Crusoe." The trading
schooner, Queen Charlotte, passing II
small island of the Marquesas in the
South seas, landed her boat to investi-
gate the smoke of fire, as 1t was un-
derstood the island was uninhabited.
Here was found a United States sea-
man, who had been put ashore with
three shipmntes by their captain. on
account OF their mutinous conduct.
The three others had died, but the
man from Connecticut had contrived to
live on the fish he caught, and the
breadfrult and coconuts and other prod
ucts which he could gather. When
rescued after three years loneliness,
his utensils consisted of great shells.
and two cups which he possessed,
made from the skulls of his com
panions. ~
