Opportunity

Hume, big and bOyish, looked just a
little more boyish than usual, Joyce
Allerton thought, as he flung open the
gate and hurried up the gravel walk.
He fairly radiated optimism. The
very gesture with which he waved
his hat with one hand, while the other
busted itself with the gate latch, was
significant Of spirit of triumph. His
smile was sunburst.
Joyce could not help thinking that
there was that about Hume, some
times, which suggested a prep school
boy lost In the sanguine excitement
OF the days football match, rather
than veteran of hundred CHASTITY
days In -the forest" and a man with
his face set to the serious business
OF making way and place for him
self-and for woman. But Hume's
infectious smile was reflected i'm the
serious gray eyes of the girl as she
greeted him.
Somebody leave you million.

he reached the veranda steps; cor

PRESIDENT NICOL
AT BYRON MAY IL

The Farm Bureau Local were for
tunate in securing Pres. Nicol as
the principal speaker at a meeting
held at Byron Thursday evening,
May 18th. This meeting was called
by the Secretary as voted by the
members at previous meeting. to
consider marketing problems, and to
elect president to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Mr.
Eddy who moved away from the To-
cality. Myron Redmond was elected
president of the Byron Farm Bureau
Local to fill the vacancy.
After a short talk by J. v. Sheap,
County Agricultural Agent, explain
ing the work being done in other
parts of the County, James Nicol
President Of the State Farm Bureau
was introduced. He gave very in
teresting address on Marketing
and on the work being done by the
Michigan State Farm Bureau.
After Mr.. Nichols talk committee
was appointed to investigate the Mar
keting Situation at Byron, also to re-
port on the possibilities of organiz-
ing a COOPERATIVE Marketing Asso-
citation at that point. We believe
that is move in the right direction.
The only way each locality can ex-
pect to receive the full benefits of
Cooperative marketing, and com
bined purchasing is by running their
own business through a cooperative
marketing association. All of these
associations now being organized plan
to have all their members sign a
contract and to use the Elevator Ex-
change as their Marketing Agency.

HOW Can YOU TELL your
FAv0RITE, TOBACCO? =.
As Plain as the Nose on Your
Face-Just Smell II d.

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
flavoring "to improve the favour and
burning qualities of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ.
ence in the kind of fiavorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious Of all
flavorings-chocolate And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Carefully aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus a dash Of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance
your nose can quickly distinguish from
any other tobacco. Try it and see.

ALL GOOD FOR IRRIGATION
Lands in the Big Horn Basin
Yield. Valuable Crops.

Climb to the headwaters Of Ten
Sleep creek, or Paint Rock creek, on
the west slope Of Cloud peak, the
highest point in the Big Horn noun
tains, and one will find small glaciers
kept alive by the huge snow accu-
mutations of winter.
Farther up the Big Horn at Their
mopolis is hot mineral spring fiow-
ing over a terrace into the river. At
the upper end of Black canon there
is another hot spring pouring into the
Big Horn. Or start with the ShOshone
river in the everlasting snowfields of
the Absaroka mountains on the east
ern edge Of Yellowstone park. Just
after coming out of the canon above
Cody one will notice the De Maris hot
springs pouring into the Shoshone.
In other words, they don't take
their irrigation water straight in the
Big Horn basin. A little hot sulphur
water Is mixed with the Ice and snow
water to irrigate the land along the
Big Horn river from Thermopolis to
Coburn, and along the Shoshone from
Cody to Ionia. where 1t joins the Big
Horn. Melted snow and Ice Is, of
course, just plain water. But the
water of the hot springs contains
lime. sulphur, gypsum and muriate of
potash. The potash Is generally use
full. Sulphur is good for alfalfa, and
the gypsum keeps the soil porous and
transfers black into white alkali.

did you win set Of tennis? Some
things happened, know, you're bub-
bling like a geyser."
Hume threw himself down on the
top step, tossed his hat down beside
him. leaned his back against the
wooden column that fianked the steps
and clasped both hands around
knee.
"Nobody's left me nickel
don't want anybody to; l don't need
that kind of softy luck. And Tn
through with tennis-and all the rest
of the foolishness, Joy. But some
thing has happened.
"JOyce'-the young mans face
took on suddenly an expression Of
great earnestness, an earneStness in
which there was just suggestion of
awe-"Joyce, 1 fancy there's some
thing to that saying about oppOrtun-
ity coming once to every man. Mine
is here. 1t has come"
An observer less influenced by the
equation of personal interest than
Garrett Hume might have read more
than he did in the abrupt fash Of
concern thatscame into the gray eyes.
All that she said, however, was, "Tell
me, Garry"
"You've heard me talk about Ne
vile. our major, Joy-'Mad Hal they
called him--the chap who took our
battalion a mile farther than his
orders - and pried a Hun division

gratis, Of course, for he knows

three times as much as I've ever had,
to say nothing about the ultimate
profit and the getting in with men
Of big business affairs"
There was eager expectancy In
Hume's manner of looking at the girl
as he told his big news. But Joyce
had drawn spray of the honeysuckle
to her and her head was bent over 1t.
So he hurried OH, getting upon his
feet and coming close to her as ne
spoke.
"Joyce. dear" he said, "this means
success-it is success. You know i

suit against Oliver Ditson Com
pany, music publishers of this city
which had been before the federal
court here for 10 years Court Off

to obtain an accounting from the
local publishers who had taken over
the rights of a Chicago house with
whom Webster had a contract The
settlement, attorneys say, involved a
payment of $4,000.
Mrs. Webster and many of the &C
attorneys who at one time or an
other were connected with the case
have died since the suit was insti-

therefore. the only party in Ulster

IN COMING YEARS
HARD|NG'S Wish
In Memorial Day Mes
sage to American
Legion
No Nations Day of Mourning
More Lofty and Ennobling
Then Our Own National Me-
mortal Day-Peace Near He
Declares

Washington, May 26-President
Harding in a Memorial Day message
to the American Legion made public
tonight expressed hope that the flu
ture years would bring less need for
further national sacrifices.
The message follows:
Americans have never been much
given to the establishment of holi-
days and fete days. Perhaps our ma
tional life has been so short and en-
tirely within so matter Of fact and
practical a period of the worlds his
tory that we have been little moved
by the sentiments that such occasions
inspire. Yet, I think no nation has
ever established national day of
| conservation that represented a more
lofty and ennobling sentiment than
does our national Memorial Day. To
full measure of sincere reverence and
gratitude that a great public is ever
to entertain for those who have made
the great sacrifice in its behalf.
Memorial Day marks our recogni-
ton of those who, from our national
beginnings have deserved the most
that the nation could give of graft
tude and appreciation. 1t reminds us
that in every generation. from Lex
ington to the Argonne our valorous
sons have well deserved the highest
tribute that a nation fortified. de-
Tended, preserved, could give to them.
Whenever the demand has come and
wherever it may have called the sons
of our proud land, it has always been
answered. Though we have never
been a militant or war loving people,
there has been no time when Ameri-
cans did not rise to the full measure
of the requirement which national
honor and national safety imposed
upon them. When national safety was
the cause, the response was always
insistent and decisive. When civili-
Zation summoned and our sons were
soils, we saw the same promptness,
the same zeal, the same devotion.
"On this Memorial Day of 1921, we
stand, I trust, very close to peace
achieved, to safety insured May it
be our common aim and purpose that,
in the coming years, our nations aim
and policy shall be directed to make
certain that there shall be least need
for further sacrifices, greatest guar
antees of the stability. the per-
manence and inspiring character of
those institutions of Liberty to which
our nation has been dedicated"
