GLASSES WILL IMPROVE APPEAR
ANCE,
By F. S. Rodgers, Opt. D.

By F. S. Rodgers, Opt. D.
Some people, usually ladies', but
not always, who need to wear
glasses, go without them because
they are afraid that glasses will
make them look older. If these cor
rections Of the eyes are needed, the
effect upon apparent age should have
no inlience But, as a matter of
fact, the effect of glasses, is often,
liz not usually, to make the wearer
appear Younger.
The strain upon the eyes that I'M
corrected optical defects produce is
the most general cause for wrinkles
about the eyes and in the forehead
between the eyes. If these wrinkles
make person lock younger, then
their effect Is different than it mas
always been supposed to be. The
relief of eye strain by glasses smooth
es out the wrinkles more effectively
Itnan hours a day of massage ever
can But aside from the wrinkles
OF aforesaid idea that glasses add to
apparent age, they undoubtedly often
improve the appearance and make
the wealer look younger.
We are speaking of course of Sc
lecred styles of glasses and mount
ings. A pair Of the old spectacles
are hideous on anybody, hut We have
passed the period of Disagreement

SERMONS.

There can be no doubt but that
the congregations OF our churches
are increasing both in material,
prosperity and In the ability to see
worth in sermons which really con-
tain il.
II is good that this is so for IL
gives TO the minister a real chance
for leadership along constructive
lines. And be II said in that regard
that, that minister whose leadership
rs not constructive will be soon
found out and pronounced undesire-
able.
Sermons pave the way for prac-
tical striving along correct lines.
They should furnish food for thought
10 all who hear them. They should
contain that which each member OF
the pew can take with him to apply
In the doing OF the daily task and
In the casual relations with his fell
bowman.
Most human beings in our land
now realize that the highway to our
Everlasting Reward must be built by

men can demonstrate Christianity
only upon their fellows
Pastors who think IN terms of
thinking congregations are making
their sermons more practical. They
deal more with consideration OF APP
plying the rules OF Holy Writ to this
life rather than a return to tn
graveyard in the hope Of extract
b. a few excavations from the more
emotional among them.

LEADING BANKERS ENDORSE AND
HEAD UNITED CAMPAIGN FOR
BETTER AGRICULTURE.

Dallas, Texas, Oct 13.-Nathan
Adams, Chairman of the Campaign
Committee and Vice President of the
American Exchange National Bank of
Dallas states: 1T is time for the
business interests of Texas, in CO.
operation with the farmers of Texas,
to get fair return for the products
of this country, and it can only be
done through the active cooperation
OF both. Farmers should not be
tempted by the present prices of
cotton to increase the acreage. Di-
versified and intensified farming
means more prosperous communities /;
therefore the sensible thing for farm
ers to do is to diversity their crops
to the extent that they can feed
themselves and livestock from their
own farms, making cotton a surplus
crop.
Warren P. Andrews of Fort Worth,
President of the Texas Bankers
Association, states that every good
banker Of the South who passed
through the ordeals of 1920 in the
huge carry-over of cotton and in the
general shortage of food and feed
stuffs, could not fail to accept his
responsibility with the farmers of
this country"It would be wrong at
this time not to come forth and make
permanent the progress and prosper
ity in diversified farming that has
been gained this year. We should
not consider along the price of cot
ton. but should maintain an indie
pendent living at home, in so far as
soil and climate will permit"
From these statements it is evil
dent that not only the farmers are
interested in the general prosperity
of agriculture and better farming
conditions" stated e. F. Shropshire
Secretary of the campaign.
These gentlemen frankly state that
they are not farmers, but are much
interested in farming conditions and

Fair In Upper Marlboro.

The coming Fair in Upper Marlboro,
on September 18th, lasting until the
17th, will be IN many ways the no>t
interesting and instructive Fair that
has ever been held in Prince Georges S
county. The exhibit from the Univer
sity of Maryland in itself is well worth
the trip to the Fair Grounds. This ex-
hibit is being brought from the Educa
tional Exhibit of the University Of
MARYLAND at the Timonium Fair. 1t
will consist of many things helpful and
useful to know. How to know what
calf to keep. and what one to send to
market how to Gull out the chicks that
will not thrive, and how to tell what
crops will grow better than others in
any particular field on your farm. MANY
other things and this one in especi |
hough it will not be included in the
Educational Ephibit, a practical talk
on whole wheat bread, and whole wheat
cooked in other ways, and the good
value of the entire wheat as contrasted
with the white -four thai is usually used
for The making of bread.
This is Southern Maryland Fair. 1t
is for everyone in the lower counties,
an opportunity to profit by these ex-
hiblts, and it is an opportunity also, for
the many ladies who embroider, and
those handy with the needle, and paint
brush, to enter their work, for there
never before was as many or such gen
erous premiums offered by this OF any
other Fair in Maryland.
