field an ideal location. Second modern
churches have slate roofs and no
shutters and they should not be close

Every one tina. has an interest in
Wesley church should think seriously
and pray over IL and decide what
their contribution will be for the new
church, as the building company will
have to know in the near future. a
new church will cost between $4,000

The Osel, Early Occupants Of Il;

The osei, Early Occupants Of italy.
The Osci. or Oscans. were an Ital-
ian people who appear to have been
the original occupants. at the earliest
known period. of Central Italy from
Campania and the borders Of Latium
to the Adriatic. The Oscans were SUBJ
dued by the Sabines, a people from
the Apennines on the north. Of whose
previous history little in known, and
who probably adopted the language
and customs Of the conquered, with
what notifications cannot be ascer-
tanned. The Oscar language was
closely allied to the Latin, Of which 1t
was probably parent stock. 1t ap-
pears to have been spoken In the
provinces long after Latin became the
official language. and 1t was used Of
dcially long after the Roman conquest.

Birds "Diseovered" Baldwin Apples.

Birds discovered" Baldwin Apples.
The famous Baldwin apple was dis
covered by Col. Loammi Baldwin. a
distinguished resident Of Woburn.
Mass, during the latter half Of the
Eighteenth century. While surveying
land in Wilmington, Mass, Colonel
Baldwin observed a tree on the land
OF James Buffers, which appeared to
be much frequented by woodpeckers
Curiosity led him to examine the tree,
and he found that it bore apples Of
an excellent flavor
The next spring he took cuttings
from the tree to graft into trees Of
his OWN, and the experiment WAS so
successful that 1t was not long be-
fore the apple was extensively Gull
tivated In many sections of the state.

Texas Has Changed

Edward M Dealey. in the Dallas
 News.
 Who cannot remember the time when as child he sat behind a bale of hay in fathers barn and clandes- timely read with wildly beating heart and bulging eyes the thriller about how Cimarron Bill, the bad man of the COW camps, became lost on the Staked Plains of Texas--how he stumbled forward under the heat of the blistering sun, falling now and then to the surface of the treeless plain to dig frantically with his bleeding fingers for water; how his tongue. parched and swollen, hung from his cracked lips because there was no longer any room inside his mouth to contain it; how he espied now and then on tho horizon, in the very midst of the idly shifting strata of heat waves, a beautiful lake, sur rounded by green trees and grass; of how he cried aloud with fierce joy at the sight and feebly plunged forward once more to dip his lips into the cooling fluid. only to have the blue water, as he approached nearer. vanish as suddenly as 1t had ap- peared; of how, at length. he fell fainting by the wayside and recov- cred consciousness only to find that he had been picked np by the beau- tiful daughter of passing emigrant who now held to his mouth damp, cool gourdful of that precious liquid water. And of how he travelled on into Santa Fe with this emigrant and his daughter, fell in love, got mar ried and had eight children m every thing like that. Everybody does. of course.
 Well, gentle reader, those old days have passed for ever. Today Cimar- ron Bill couldn't walk very far with out pumping his head into wind mill. The great Llano Estacado has petered out as . logical place ts 1 transport man into fiction If you want to get him Into an awful mess from which Providence or facile pen can extract him. Where oncs barren wastes extended for miles. to- day wavering blankets of echelonet
 wheat sields greet the eye of thu wandersr. And where once the snail like prairie schooner wended iti weary way to the Golden West, to day motor cars scurry about with , roar and . snort and take prospsrou' looking businsss men wherever the, \ want to go before they quite realiz' that they have started.
