SURGERY NEEDED FOR TREES
Most Persons With Little Practice Can
Undertake Ordinary Repair
Work Necessary.

The best, safest and most economi-
cal plan TO prevent future extensive
injury and decay, or to prevent the
early Disagreement or death of the
tree, is to attend to all injuries as
0 o as they occur, say specialists Of
the United States Department of Az.
rjculture. This kind of work is com
paratively simple and inexpensive.
Tree surgery has become an estab-
lished industry in all cities, and it Is
often profitable to employ the services
OF those trained in this work. but most
persons can, with a little preliminary
practice on the simpler types of work,
undertake ordinary tree repair pro-
yided they are familiar with the use
of the gouge and mallet, a saw. and
a paintbrush. A steady head and
ability to climb will be necessary for
work in the top of a tree.

FIRST HOUSE PILGRIMS BUILT
Plymouth Venerates Site of Structure
Where Settlers Modelled Civil
Form of Government.

Until they have gazed upon the
Rock, visitors to Plymouth town de-
cline, as a rule, to see anything else.
Having performed that duty, they
usually stroll or spin up Leyden street,
which extends from a point con-
veniently near the Rock, to the foot
Of Burial hill, where the Pilgrim fort
and watch tower used to frown down
upon the Indians. Leyden street is
New England's Oldest tlforoughfare.
Once it was called, quite aptly, First
street.
On ones way up Leyden street one
musk stop to look at the site Of the
first house which the Mayfower pas.
sengers erected in the wilderness. In
this structure the settlers had their
fling at the purest form Of democracy.
Here, modelling their civil govern
ment upon the compact which had
beer drawn up in the cabin of the
Mayf1ower while she was anchored
in the harbor Of Cape Cod, they dis.
cussed laws for their guidance, and
elected Myles Standish, by majority
vote, captain of the Plymouth home
guard.

This is the type of schooroom that is rapidly making n English speaking
nation u of the 1o,5ooOo0 inhabitants of the Philippines.

If a teacher in a public school in
the Philippines desires to punish a
child, she doesn't have to apply the
ruler. She simply sentences the Offend
ing pupil to remain away from school
a few days!
This is the most severe punishment
she a inflict, for Filipino children
take an almost abnormal pleasure in
going to school and acquiring an edu-
cation. The all-I'ilipino legislature, in
response to the popular demand for
schools, and still more schools" is
constantly increasing Its a%ppropria-
' tons for education, but the schools can
scarcely be constructed fast enough to
care for the ever-increasing enrolment.
The school enrolment is now $4,000
without any compulsory attendance
laws. When Dewey sailed into Manila
Bay there were 2,100 private schools
in the islands. Today there are $500
schools and colleges, with 1900 Fill
pino teachers and about 1000 other
teachers, 341 Of whom are Americans.
The University of the Philippines Is
the center of learning of the entire
Orient, and is the pride Of the Fill
pino people. 1t has an enrolment Of
$500 students. Santo Tomas univer-
sity of Manila, older than Harvard, is
another famous seat Of learning.
The school system includes normal
schools, agricultural colleges, twenty
seven farm schools, q nautical school
and a school for the deaf and blind.
The Filipino pupil, in addition to
learning English and in addition to his
regular studies, learns basket making,
embroidery and hat weaving, the
trades peculiar to the islands, as well
as the domestic sciences and pedagogy.
There are more positions than can be
filed by the trade school and COM
mercial college graduates. The trade
and agricultural schools produced ST.
176,850 worth Of goods in 1919,

people take more pride In and that

A True PHILOSOPHER.

A retired sea captain, who lived in
Orland, Me-, was inordinately fond of
his garden and very proud of its neat
and w%ell-kept appearance. One Sun
day he returned from church and
found five hogs busily engaged in
wrecking his garden-the finest in all
Orland.
Leaning On the fence, he looked long
and earnestly at the result of their
depredations, and his wife shed a few
tears. The passing neighbors paused
to look, and many a furtive glance
went to the face Of the captain to
set how he was taking it. At last
he heaved a deep sign and put his
hand on his wife's arm.
Never mind, Polly" he said. "You
never a lay dirt to suit a hog

Coal Bad Cargo for Ships.

Coal is a bad cargo for ships, for
soft coal heats if stacked deep, and
frequently is fired by spontaneous
combustion. In the open you can
stack coal 20 feet deep without fear
Of its firing, but under cover not more
than Is or 16 feet.
The proof of this statement is
shown by the fact that fires in .argoes
Of 5O0-1,000 tons of coal are oriv / per

Oats are a better grain feed than

WANG.
Let's talk some Wang!

Peter Danielson discovered this
locality about forty years ago. At
the same time Jens Knutson and B.
Dalhvang also cleared a home place
and were soon snugly nestled in the
bush that fringes the %Sydenham river
and valley to a distance of several
miles south and west into the prairie
A few years later old Peterson, A..
Johnston, M. Olson, John Stone and
others settled here. 1t was only a
short time until the whole district
was fast assuming the appearance Of
a prosperous farm home life.
In 1895 John Dahlvang allowed
the government the use of part of his
name for a post office stamp and
Yang was then put on the map. To.
day we have three stores, one black
smith shop, a fine school. with about
Fifty scholars in attendance, under the
guidance of two efficient teachers, a
Baptist church and parsonage and
two Luthern churches and parsonages

that mean you are sure of fair

reappointed manager and the "Hello

satisfy the wants of the most fastid-

A rural mail service from Walhalla
supplies the wants of the south and
east neighborhood, while the star
