GIVES FARMERS HOPE
Helped by Extension Work of Department of Agriculture.
Normal, Interesting Rural communi. ties Are Hope of Preserving Sat
 isfied Rural Population.

Washington.-Scarcely anything In the everyday run of human affairs is much more interesting than hobby, particularly if it chance to have in 1t something of advantage to those whose lives, it may be, are filled with stern duties.
 The President of the United States has a hobby.
 If 1 can do anything to change dis appointment into new hope," said Mir. Harding, speaking one afternoon to the Washington correspondents, Il shall have satisfied the best hobby man can have in this world.''
 Men and women employed in the ex- tension work of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, some for the children of the farms some for the grown-ups, are doing just this kind of thing without, perhaps, realizing that it has become a hobby.
 Vera McCrea, president of the New York State Federation of Home NNreau Managers, cites a case to illustrate the point.
 
 farm woman:
 "As you know, should have left the farm and country life, perhaps and gone with thousands of others to the city if 1 could have done so. 1 have looked forward to the time when might go.
 "But now the home bureau work among us has changed things. 1 am so absorbed in the work I am learning to do that I wouldn't leave the c0un- try for all the allurements of the city.
 "You know we all have visions, but now mine are the same as yours
 "Some figures attempt a financial measure of home bureau york;" says member of the extension staff em- ployed in the North and West. Even if accurate figures could be gathered about the most important crop-the children-the crop with which the home bureaus are primarily concerned, would they tell one-half the storyf Children, well and happy are worth whatever they cost. Normal, interest ing rural communities are the hope of creating and preserving a satisfied rural population. Community enter prises help to make the farming re- gions what they should be if that life is to compete successfully with the at- fractions of the cities"

THE PASSENGER PIGEONS.

XXyHERE roam ye now, ye nomads w of the air? The old-time heralds of our old time Springs? Once when we heard the thunder of your wings, We looked upon the world-and Spring was there. One time your armies swept across the sky, Your feathered millions in mighty march Filling with life and music all the arch Where now a lonely swallow fiutters by. Where roam ye now, ye nomads of the air? In what far land? What undiscov- cred place? Ye may have found the refuge of the race That mortals visit but in dream and prayer. Perhaps in some blest land ye wing your flight, Now undisturbed by murder and by greed, And there await the coming of the freed Who shall emerge like ye, from earth and night.

THE WANDERERS.
co, 1921, Western Newspaper Union

A LITTLE church through dusty A trees
 Raised up it's wooden spire, One of religions purities Amid our mortal mire, And one there came to open door Made timid by his sin, Made timid by the mark he wore, And dared not enter in The while he paused he heard a
 Whir-
 Beside him trembled down Another outcast wanderer, The swallow of the town. It fluttered through the open place, It mounted to the choir, Within the simple house of grace Poured forth it's notes of fire. And he who lonely fingered heard And something fell away; He followed after singing bird Where sinners kneel to pray. Yea. there the old remembrance died And there the new began; For soon they worshiped side by
 side
 The swallow and the man.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"MACARONI."

NN ACARONI, as we know it at 4v1 present, was first made in Sicily and tradition has it that it was invented by a chef in the establishment maintained by wealthy resident of Palermo. Despite the genius of his cook, the n0bleman grew weary of the same round of high-havored, hignly-SeaSOned dishes and sent word to the kitchen that he de sired something less pungent- a dish which savored of plain cooking and which was not as trying to the digestive appa- ratus.
 At first incensed. the chef de termined to try his hand at a mixture of wheat flour and wa ter, rolling the paste into tubes and serving them with grated parmesan cheese which his cul- mary instinct told him was the proper accompaniment for a dish , of this nature. Hardly had he tasted the new delicacy than the nobleman exclaimed "Cari !" the usual Italian ejaculation signifying delight, which may be freely translated as meaning 1.-The darlings p Ma Cari !''- What darlings !''-he repeated moment later and followed this with Ma Caroni DOT, lit orally, What dearest darlingsr p The chef, who was lurking in the background anxiously await ing the verdict upon his new dish, then came forward and ex- plained how he had made it. adding "Since you have named it, master, so shall it be-mac- aroni."

RUBBING THE LAMP
By r. 4. WALKER

0F ALL the stories that out of O far-distant past have come down to entertain and teach us none Is more compelling in it's interest than that of Aladdin and his wonderful lamp.
 There are several versions of the fact, but one feature remains the same ln all the variations-in order to get the benefits which the lamp had pow CT to confer the possessor had to rub 1t.
 In other words, it took WORK to get the desired results and to enjoy the benefits.
 The greatest disgrace in this life Is to be idle To produce nothing, to feed upon the mental or physical Iabors of others, reduces man to rank lower than the animals, for they strive at least for their food.
 "He is not only idle who does nothing" says Seneca, but he is idle who might be better employed"
 The thing to do is to find that task for which you are best fitted, which you can do with the greatest efficiency and the greatest pleasure, and do that task with all your might.
 Count your efforts by results.
 The punch that does not land never overcomes your opponent.
 The bullet that spends it's energy In the air never helped to win battle. Production, RESULTS, is what truly measures endeavor and fixes it's value. likeness Is emptiness. Emptiness as to the present, emptiness as to the future.
 One of the most indefatigable work CTS In America, a man whose accom- plishments are known the world over and whose name is a synonym for ac complishment in his profession said ln lecture to group of young men recently: "The man who works only with the purpose of self preservation whose only object in life is to satisfy his hunger, cover his nakedness and provide himself shelter, may be good but he won't be good for much"
 A man WITH A BRAIN ought to have something that the machine can not have. He ought to have aspiration and ambition and vision of better future.
 If he has not how is he better than the combination of belts and gears beside which he works?
 could po1yar c,,i+a 1an, was very severely punished when as . result of his infraction of the rules of Eden he was told, Tn the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread" I cannot believe that the Creator looked upon work as curse, a punishment. Work has brought more joy into the world, cured more sorrows, mended more broken hearts and built more happiness than any other function of mankind.
 Carlyle paid splendid tribute to work when he wrote, "There is noble ness and even sacredness in work. There is always hope in a man who actually and earnestly works. The latest gospel in the world is, know thy work and do it."
 Work will make us love life.
 It is the one means of satisfying ambition.
 It is the one way to turn dreams into realities.
 It is the ONLY way by which a man can prove his right to existence and establish the wisdom of the Gre ator in having made him.
 The best part of the story of Alad- din and his lamp was that he had to rub the lamp to get results. He had to work to accomplish what he sought And that was much more satisfying than ever marrying the Sultan's daugh- ter and living happily ever after.

THE WOMAN DOCTOR

TT WAS not so long ago that the ! woman doctor was held more or less in contempt. She was supposed to be a freak, to put it clearly, and it was only freaks who would go to her for treatment
 It is still surprise when you hear q college girl say that she is studying medicine. It will become less and less so as prejudice fades and as more and more women enter the field There are nowhere near enough good doctors and in the constantly extend ing work of preventive medicine wom- en will find the fullest opportunity. It is there, more even than with chil- dren and with women, that woman will do her greatest medical labor. Pre- ventive medicine is only in it's infancy. Those who know say that it will soon see an immense extension. The les sons of the war have been of tremen- dous value in teaching what may be expected, and even these are but fore shadowings.
 The woman who has taste for medicine and who can give the neces- sary time to its study is preparing a fine future for herself. The day is over when the intellectual woman went into teaching as the one most interesting profession open to her. The woman doctor is already on her way. In a few years she will be known as commonly as her brother. and as favorably. No woman who feels drawn to the work should hesi- tate to follow it. if she can by any means accomplish the training re- quired.

BARON GETS EVEN ON NAME
British Authorities Refuse First One He Takes "Ystwyth of
 Tan-y- Bwich"

London.-Mr. Vaughan-Davies, mem- Der of parliament for Cardiganshire, one of the five recently created peers, has discovered that mere baron can not select any title he may desire
 He wanted to call himself baron of Cardiganshire, which he has represent ed in parliament for many years, and so notified the authorities that have charge on such matters.
 He was told that he couldn't have it. Nobody under the rank of earl could choose the name of county or a coun- try town for his title. So he has elect ed to be known as Baron Ystwyth of Tan-y -Bwich. which nobody but a Welshman knows how to pronounce.

YANKEE SAILORS
 EXPERT AT, SEA
U. s. Merchant Marine Blessed With Officers and Men
 Quick to learn.
CREWS ARE NOT MUTlNOUS
Accidents to Ships Growing Fewer Because of Increased Experience ~ Make Good When Emergen-
 cies Arise at Sea.

Rotterdam.-What may be the ultimate fate of the American mer- chant marine, the American Jack Tar has come back to his own. This is the verdict of constant observers Tn the shipping department of the Uni ted States consulate general at Rotter- dam, one of the biggest ports for American ships in Europe, to which come monthly thousands of American merchantmen.
 These Yankee ships officers and sailors, for the most part products of only two or three years of training, have learned to handle their big freighters with all of the skill of the windjammer crews of the old Yankee clipper days. They do not, for the most part, know how to reef a top sail or do any of the hundreds of nau- tical things for which there were rich sounding terms in the days of the sail ing ships.
 There in an Emergency.
 But when 1t comes to piloting a big steamer through heavy gale, stoking the fires of the coal burners emergency tasks that may develop at sea, the American born, American trained ships officer or "A. B." Cable bodied seaman) in the language of the seamen's resorts on the Schiedamasche dyke here, wont take nuthin' from nobody
 The big books of the consulate gen eral, in which are recorded the his- tories of the voyages of these Amer. can ships and the complaints of the crews, bear out Jacks contention that he is as able a seaman as any who sails the seven seas.
 ''These records show" said one of the consular officials, that American ships officers are as efficient as Brit fish. Dutch or Scandinavians trained long to the sea. They show that the young American sailor can learn his work quickly, that boy whose nauti- cal experience three years ago was confined to pumping water for the cows on the farm, or bathing in the old swimmin hole, can adapt himself to his ship as well as a Norwegian lad who has been trawling for fish since he first wore trousers.
 Different Now
 "For short time, because of lack of proper charts and much experi- ence, accidents to American ships seemed much more frequent than to those of other nationalities Now, this is changing.
 "American-born, newly-tralned cap tains have no more trouble with their crews than the masters of ships flying other flags, or masters who have be- come naturalized Americans in order to get an American ship Tn fact, in many cases they have less.
 Not long ago, an American cap. tain who was only 27 years old. brought his tramp freighter all around the world, making money on the voy age, and his crew had not a single complaint to record against him."

Peace Brings Woe to Alley Dwellers

p ATIFICATION of the treaty of
N peace with Germany will be a
source of relief to the national
government, but it will automatically
bring before the District commission
ers the problem of providing for the
$500 persons living in alleys in the
city.
One year after peace is proclaimed
by the President all structures in
alleys must be abandoned for dwelling
purposes under law enacted by con-
gress back in 1914. The law was
slated to go into. effect July /, 1918,
but because of the housing congestion
which existed here at that time con-
gress continued the date to one year
after peace.
The treaty has been signed by Ger
many and may be ratified and pro-
claimed before the end of this year.
In that event the district would have
only L months in which to prepare for
enforcement of this legislation.
While Washington's war population
has been reduced considerably, it is
apparent to district officials that resi-
Dental property is still too scarce to

Women Scrub the Statue of Suffragists

KT EMBERS of the National Wom-
IV ans party, arising with the
birds. visited the capitol at six
o'clock and interviewed the charwom-
en- detailed to clean the capitol, in an
effort to interest the charwomen in
keeping clean the statue of the three
pioneer woman suffragists, Susan B.
Anthony, Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, which was presented to
congress last year.
This was follow-up of a scrub
bling which the Woman's party mem
hers gave the statue themselves the
day before, when they armed them
selves with scrubbing brushes, soap
and wafer and invaded the capitol
Those who appealed to the char
women were Mrs. G. L. Robey, chair
man of the Eighth congressional dis
trfct of Virginia of the National Wom-
ans party. who led the scrubbing expe-
,iition. and Miss Levinia Eagan of LOU
isiana, a member of the party council.
The charwomen expressed interest in
the matter, they reported.
Besides keeping the statue of three
pioneer suffragists clean, the women
