Get IL bv Winning

Father, I want new baseball
mitt."
He got it.
Later we talked with the father,
and in the course of the conversation
remarked that his boy seemed to have
just about everything he happened to
want.
Eyes, give him anything he wants
if it is within my power to get it for
him." replied the boys father.
But aren't you afraid of over-in-
dulging him." we asked.
''No, sir" emphatically. Il be-
lieve it the thing to do"
He paused until the remark had
time to sink in and asimilate, then he
continued
Il believe a child should be given
everything he wants, if within reason.
Let him get the habit of getting what
he wants in his budding years, and
when he reaches seniority, that habit
will abide with him and put him on
easy street"
This was new angle, ana there
was no further argument.
But. on sober second thought, we
are inclined TO believe that this theory
is wrong.
The habit of getting what one
wants is an admirable one indeed-if
one WINS it.
But, when one has had every de-
sire gratifed, without effort, he may
get the idea that they will come in the
same manner TO the end of the game
but they won't.
When we get into the honest-to-
goodness battle of life, when the
other fellow wants the same thing we
want, when he feels he just must
have 1t, there will be a struggle-and
the best man wins.
If we want that boy TO get what ne
wants. Il is well, but let him earn 1t.
Then he will appreciate it after 1t is
wen.
Abraham Lincoln got the habit OF
getting what ne wanted, to great
degree, but he struggled aainst over
whelmiag odds for years before things
began coming his way. No fond
parent stood at his beck and call,
ready and able to crafty his every
within. Lincoln struggled to acquire

Lawrence, April 27.-What is to
be the first entirely inter-denomina-
tional school Of religion in the United
States took definite form with the
recent election of a board OF trustees
for the new school of religion at the
University Of Kansas. This school
was organized by the council of re
igious workers representing all the
churches o. Lawrence, and the move
ment was started over year ago. The
new school is to he formally opened
next fall and a full course Of re,ig
ious instruction will be offered.
''Frcm the beginning the standards
both as TO faculty members and
courses Of the new school will be the
highest possible" said the Rev Frank
Jennings of the Baptist church of
Lawrence and president of the board

Public Health

The Public Health Car, Warren
which stood on our tracks last week
has sped onward. While here it was
visited by all the pupils of the public
and parochial schools. The children
from the outside districts were also
brought in to absorb its lessons.
Will the seed sown in these younc
minds bear fruit so that future legis-
lation will be more generous in ap-
propriating funds for public health ?
At present, the Appropriation for
the care Of live stock ana agriculture
IS twenty cents per capita, while for
public health it is two cents per can
lta. Are horses and cattle and hog
more valuable than little children?
The appalling death rate among in
fants in this country proves to US that
mothers need to be guided in the ser
lous questions appertaining to the
health of their children. No calling
on earth is higher or more important
than the profession of motherhood.
The public health nurse advise
mothers about the care of their chill
dren and also gives assistance in fam
lies where her aid is needed. She
makes school inspection visits and
helps meet any local health condition
which need her attention.
Due TO the shortage of nurses
throughout the United States It is
difficult TO secure nurses Of proper
training for the public health service.
Twenty-Five additional nurses win be
added to the staff Of this. the South
western Division, in the immediate
future. Of this number, seven will
be placed n Oklahoma, five in Ms
souri,, five in Teaxs, five in Kansas
and three in Arkansas.
The question at present confront
ing US is the support Ct this public
health nurse service. The value of i
has been proved beyond doubt during
the past year. Can we afford to dc
without it?

WHATS THE MATTER WITH

Craving for Excitement Due to
Boredom

Boredom
Participation in moonlight automo-
bile rides, "close" dancing, a craving
for excitement do not by any means
indicate that our young folks are de-
liberately going to the bad. Often,
particularly in small towns, it is all
due TO just plain lack Of something
better TO do.
So says the latest Y. w. c. a.
movie, The High Road" based on
the experience Of the Y. w. c. A.
with girls in towns large and small.

girl who has right ideas can influence
the whole community away from the
wrong kind of-amusements," saws DR..

town something better. Preaching,

COUNTY FARM BUREAU NOTES

COUNTY FARM BUREAU NOTES
Ellis County Farmers should take
advantage of the Round Up program.
Some Of the best men of the state
will be here to speak. The expert
ments this year will be of interest to
all the men who have cattle. What
value has straw in the ration? Can
1t be used to good advantage or not?
These are some of the questions that
will be answered. We hope to see q
number of men here for this big
event.
Walter Riedel, Len Kraus, Ed
Kraus, VIM. Philip, Carl BENDER, Fill
fred Crissman, VIM. Gosser, Merrill
Moore are the boys from this county
who will take part in the stock judg-
ing contest on Friday of this week, at
the Experiment Station.
Fifteen other teams will probably
enter the contest from the adjoining
counties. This is the first event of
this kind and we hope to make it q
permanent affair.
The boys will judge a class of
horses, class of bulls, class of dairy
cows, class of hogs, a class of sheep,
and four lots of cattle. None of this
is fat stuff and will give the boys ad-
vantage of judging cattle that will
usually be found on the various
farms.
Although only two teams are enter
ing this contest, we hope to continue
the work in this county during the
summer. We are planning on enter
ing a team at Topeka or Hutchinson
Fair this year. If any boys are want
ing to take this work this summer,
please let the County Agent know
soon so he may make the arrange
ments that will be necessary to meet
with the various groups.
Boys and girls are enrolling every
day in the sorghum club work, a few
in the calf clubs, few in the poultry
Later on we want to organize canning
clubs, sewing clubs, etc. If you are
interested in any of the various clubs
please let the County Agent or Coun-
| " Superintendent know.
Mr.. Pearson, Mr.. Christensen and
the County Agent will spend Monday
and Tuesday on club work. Ten or
twelve meetings are planned for these
| two days. We cannot see all the boys
and girls at this time but if we miss
you, please let US know what club you
| are interested in.
Can cane seed be used successfully
in fattening hogs? Is yellow or white
corn more useful in fattening hogs?
What use can be made of grain sor-
ghums in fattening hogs? How TO
winter sheep, some good rations in
fattening steers, are some of the
things that will be given out at the
Feeders Day at Manhattan, May 7th.
Mr.. Gustafson, president of the
Nebraska Farmers Union, also the
chairman of the committee of H.
which has worked out a marketing
system, will discuss this plan at the
Feeders Day at Manhattan. If any
one from here can attend it viii be
/ worth your while.
Mr.. Gustafson will speak at Larned
May 9th, at 1880 p m. He will ex-
plain the marketing plan. We hope
that the farmers of this county vii
take advantage of this opportunity to
hear him on marketing. Even though
you do not agree with the plan, be

LOVELY RECITAL
SUNDAY EVENING.

Despite the electrical storm when
interfered with the lighting of the
church. large audience attended the
splendid organ recital Sunday evening
in the First Baptist church given by
Miss Pauline Schaadt, who is spend
ing the summer in Americas.
SO perfectly familiar with the Sc
lections which were given, and with
the keyboard which she manipulated
50 skilfully, was Miss Schaadt that
the sudden extinguishing Of the
lights, placing in total darkness the
building, had no effect on the con
tinuance of the performance. The
electrical display only lent an added
magnificence to the splendid notes
as they poured in immense volume
from beneath her trained fingers and
filled the auditorium with the per
lection of tone.
Five selections were given, follow
ed by the evening sermon and song
service.
Because of the inclemency of the
weather, Miss Schaadt will be invited
to repeat the recital so that larger
number of music lovers may be per.
mltted the opportunity of hearing
