Let Thankssavinw FIN the Air

When bluebirds Titled graceful heads
Above the graceful violet beds;
When robins hid their turquoise gems,
And berries hung from silken stems;
When doves were cooling on the caves.
And pearls were set in iris leaves;
When DER the nests the thrushes sang,
And curfew harebells lightly rang,
You saw. in all, Gods loving care.
Then let Thanksgiving fill the air!
And unto Him your love declare.
When hills turned golden in night,
And flelds showed colors warm and
bright:
When perfumes met in wayside streets
To tell Of cherished autumn sweets;
When memories came thick and fast
To bring the harvest CT the past.
The fruited joys Of all the years
To cover griefs and sigs and tears.
You saw and felt Gods love and care.
Then let Thanksgiving fin the air!
And unto Him your love declare.

TULSA MAN THINKS
TANLAC KEPT HIM
RIGHT ON THE JOB

1T was certainly money well spent
when l bought Tanlac, for l doubt
if I would be able to be on the job
today if il hadn't been for this medi-
cine" said J. f. Chandler, Of 80 Olym
pia St, Tulsa, Okla.
For q long time before l got Tan.
lac l was troubled with what l be-
lieved was rheumatism, l had awful
pains and soreness in my shoulders,
and many times my arms were so
stiff and ached so bad l could hardly
raise my hands to my head I don I
believe l could have been in more
misery had some one been sticking
me with knives, and it was just all
could do to stay on the JOB
couldn't find anything 70 help me. ana
was certainly in bad shape.
Il have taken six bottles of Tan
lac and it has relieved me of rheuma-
tism so completely that l never have
an ache or pain and have re-
gained my full strength and energy.
My wife was not well and had no
appetite to speak Of She took Tanlac
at the same time I did, and it has
given her such a splendid appetite that
she said to me the other day it
looked like she would eat us out of
house and home. l believe Tanlac Is
all that kept me on the job, and there
are SO many others in i'll health that
feel like it is my duty to tell ev-
erybody l can about it."-Adv.

FEDERATED W0NlEN'S
CLUBS FAVOR THE
COMMUNITY BUILDING

Salt Lake City, Utah, June IL
County conferences Of women in ev-
cry county, in every state, at which
community needs may be discussed
are being urged by the department of
applied education of the general fed
GRAFTON of womens clubs. Mrs. John
Dickinson Sherman, Chicago, chairman
OF the department, declared in an ad-
dress here at the Great Salt Lake
council of the federation.
Conferences will help women TO see
for themselves their own home and
community needs and show them how
these may be developed, Mrs. Sher-
man said. Our program is based upon
action, rather than theory and actually
functions in the lives of women of the
communities
one aim Of the department, Mrs.
Sherman added, is to so arouse public
opinion to the need of education that
q substantial public sentiment will b..
created for better schools and that
the standard of rural schools will be
raised 50 country children may have
educational opportunities equivalent te
those in the cities
Statewide campaigns for kindergar-
ten education are urged, she said The
Kindergarten is the place Of pieces
where = n icaniza "a :; ould be- u.
and yet only twelve er ce7t of al lbs
children Of kindersnt2n age in 't
country begin their school life in the
kndergar;en.
In short it is the aim of this de-.
partment to build up in every COM
nunity constructive influences to
counteract the effect OF destructive
influences now abroad in the land"
Ms Sherman said. 1T is essential
that tho yight mental attitude sur
roa.d lie Child. outside cf the school
room, as well as within, in order that
he may develop into q rational, loyal
American citizen.
Each phase Of the subject of food,
in study outline, has been given the
club women and every club in the
country is being urged to take a defi-
mite stand on the subject of clothing.
We expect the club women to con-
vince manufacturers that there is a
demand for a standardized grade of
certain fabrics that have predominant
ing use, and also a demand for simple
conservative garments as well as those
which follow the trend Of swiftly pass
ing fashions"

CLEAN THEM ALL.

Commenting editorially upon a news
story which appeared in The Daily
Ardmoreite, and which was sent out
over the Associated Press wires, the
Sherman. Texas, Democrat urges a
crusade be started all over the coun-
try to clean up conditions as they
are alleged to be found in most Of
the hotels, large and small, Of the
different cities in every state in the
union.
The story upon which the DEM
ocrat writer based his editorial, told Of
negro porter employed by an Ard
more hotel, who had been fined in the
municipal court and turned over to
the county authorities for prosecu-
tion after It had been established
that he had approached a 12 year-old
white girl in an undesirable manner,
the girl being a registered guest OF
the hotel
The editorial writer Of the Demo
crat in plain language and the most
positive terms urges the necessity
OF cleaning up the hotels and putting
a stop TO this most reprehensible prac-
tice. And in his editorial he dwells
upon the fact that conditions have be-
come such that it IS almost impossible
for a woman TO travel alone and es-
cape insult offered by some pandering
brute who would add TO his income
as a hotel porter through pandering
to those Of the male guests whose in
clinations are depraved.
Very Justly the Democrat editor
singles out no particular class OF hos
telries but seeks to show that the
rule applies to all kinds Of public
houses, to those located in the larger
cities and in the smaller towns.
He does not say that the nefarious
and immoral practice is carried on
with the knowledge and consent Of
the arrangements OF the hotels, but
he does say that the thing could and
should be stopped.
The view taken by the Texas writ
er is absolutely correct. The com.
mon decency Of the general public
demands that immoral solicitations Of
porters, or others, be stopped by the
hotel owners and intimates quite
strongly that long rope and short
shrift for the porter who persists in
the practice, win be the quickest So
luton Of the problem.
There IS no reason why hotels, Of
any class, Of high standing or second
or even third class, should not be run
strictly along legitimate lines. There
is no reason why panderings to de-

FEDERAL VOCATIONAL
TRAINING BOARD is
RESPONSIBLE FOR A
MODERN DAY WONDER
(By The Associated Press)

Chicago, June l7.-When Clay Hart,
a Chicago baritone singer, emerged
from a five months siege in an army
hospital in France, he found his voice
gone and the prospect Of never being
able to sing again staring him in the
face. That was in June, 1919. Today
Mr.. Hart is a promising tenor on
the faculty Of one OF the city's leading
conservatories and an operatic com
pany which he has recently organized
has already had several successful en-
gagements,
The rehabilitation of the artillery
man choir singer was accomplished
through a course OF training given
Hart by the federal board for voca-
tional education. Although an accom-.
plished musician before he entered the
army, Hart found il necessary TO be-
gin at the bottom and learn to trill
and run the scale all over again.
Prior to entering the service, Hart
was a member of the Paulist Choir OF
Chicago and accompanied the choir as
soloist in a trans-continental tour just
before he enlisted. Then he went over
seas with the 3l6th Field Artillery, S1st
division, as a buck private and saw
years service in France, much of
the time on the firing line.
In the fall of 1918 he contracted in
fiuenza which later developed into
pleurisy and pneumonia and in Janu-
airy, 1919 he went to a hospital where
he was finally operated on for en-
pyema. At that time 1t was thought
that his singing voice would entirely
disappear and that his career as a
singer was over.
But in June. 1920, under the federal
boards supervision, Hart began a
course Of voice culture treatment by
physicians and vocal instructors. His
progress was rapid and within a year
Hart has learned to sing again, with
a tenor voice, which his associates,
say, is of better quality and clearer
than his baritone ever was before his
illness.

PRAYED men and immoral women by
hotel employees should be tolerated
There is no reason why the young

Sodom and Gomorrah.
