HONORS DEAD WIFE

W. S. c. Man. Left WidoWer,
EnIists for PeriIOus Re-

Consecrating to the memory Of his
deceased bride of less than a year, a
perilous service to humanity in
the cholera-infected famine zone OF
Armenia, Alfred D. Merritt, a young
Washington State College man, former
ly of Montana, but lately of Tacoma
has entered the overseas service of the
Near East Relief.
Nearly all 1890 students OF the w.
s. C. in Pullman remember the pretty
campus romance of Merritt and Miss
Miriam Edey, also of Tacoma, which
eliminated in their marriage at Mos
COW, Idaho. In November, 1920.
Merritt is the son of G.. M. Merritt,

Real college pep" and ingenuity are
being injected in characteristic Mon

To a sympathetic young army OF
Montana Agricultural College boys AT

Director Alexander Pringle of the Near

out into an early lead with gifts OF
wheat and cash thai will result in saw
ing the lives of hundreds of famished
children in the cropless Near East.
After carrying the appeal of the
Near East to practically every school
in the Gallatin valley, with short talks
to the teachers and pupils, and distri-
buting cards for pledges of aid, this
group Of Montana college boys. enthusi-
astic in the new realization of what
their service may mean to humanity,

Fifth, Bozeman is secretary-treasurer.
Montana's campaign for gifts OF
wheat for Near East Relief is headed
by Chester Davis. state secretary OF
agriculture, and nearly every Montana
county that raised any wheat this year
is rallying to the relief of Armenia
and her stricken neighbor countries.
In the Near East crops were a COM
plete failure. Now, great masses have
been cut off by winter snow from their
only food supply of withered grass and
roots, upon which they fed like cattle
during the summer, and more than
three hundred thousand orphan chill
dren are struggling gamely against
starvation. Their only hope is in
speedy American aid.
Even in Montana counties, where
crops were a practical failure.
hundreds of people, who are facing a
serious problem of their own, are
sharing what little they have, through
state headquarters of the Near East
Relief, at 5 Montana building, Helena,
with those vastly poorer sufferers in
the Near East, who have absolutely
nothing.

What va Mean,
This Monotony?

Well meaning, but densely ignor-
ant editorial writers ever now and
again bemoan the routine, unexciting
and UNMARRIED life the farmer leads,
and wisely opine that what the rural
world needs is more excitement,
more hazard, mayhap, more varied
interest.
The wise writer's should accom-
plish a mess of farm chores before
breakfast and after supper for a
few weeks; they would discover that
the rural vocations contain all the
hazard and risk and excitement that
is left in business today.
In town the days are about the
same; You catch the same car, or
crank the same flivver, morning and
evening; you dodge just so many
taxis and milk trucks, or miss just
so many hesitating matrons with
baby buggies.
But in the country it's different
If you milk a string Of eight cows,
the farm average, it is gold letter
day in the year that at least one
bovine monster doesn't swat you in
the eye with her tail, or joggle the
pail from between your legs. or bowl
you over without warning.
When you feed the fool calves it is
another rare day when one calf
doesn't suddenly buck up and butt
you half across the shed, while it's
brother hunts the pail from your
hands, and its half sister steps on
your good foot; the other one being
out OF commission because the axe
slipped yesterday.
If you curry and feed the horses,
or wind up the tractor and you es-
cape without at least back fire,
or a back kick, or nip from the mare
who always has a crouch until noon,
you are again unusually blessed.
And through the long hours until
bed time nature offers her various
moods, many of them contrary. The
sharp Skinned hawk swoops down
and with swirl of feathers finishes

the last broiler the owls had left.
The digger squirrel, the mole, the
field mouse and the shrew-omniver-
Gus hog of them all-clean out your
sweet corn and excavate your po-
tato patch and NOW down your
early peas and then sit around and
sheer at the castor beans you had
planted to keep them out Of the
garden.
If you pillow you will doubtless
discover a wasp's nest-too late.
If you spray an apple tree, a pro-
testing bee or two or twain or twen-
ty will light on you and warm the
corner where they are.
Hazard, interest, danger, the un-
timely arrival of the unexpected,
thrills; do you desire these things in
abundancef Then, get you to the
farm-any farm, anywhere.
