In those days there stood on the

TIMELY HINTS BY sETLIFFE
Illinois State AdJutant Offers Eleven
Commandments Which He Has
Found Useful.

Eleven commandments In reverse
English" have been found useful by
William Q. Setllffe. state adjutant OF
the American Legion in Illinois. In
building up the Legion's program for
that state. They are as follows:
1. Don't attend meetings If 1t rains.
You might get your feet wet, and you
are moi In the physical condition you
were at the ~cantOnments, or at Brest.
2. Don't think Of going II 1t is a

Of other things you could do that sort
of a night. FIR instance-Oh, roll
your W idea.
8. If you should attend a meeting,
find fault with everything that's go
ing on. IL your officers are showing
pep, demand to know In open meeting
what political offices they intend run.
ming for.
4. Never accept an office in the post.
Most Offices have duties connected
with them. and It is much easier to
criticize the way the other fellow Is
trying to handle the job.
s.. Get sore at the organization If you
are not appointed on a committee.
9, If you are appointed, don't both
er about attending the committee
meetings. They often are a bore.
Z. During discussion of a motion
keep still. After 1t has passed, tell
some one why they should have voted
Ii down.
8. Forget to pay your dues. The
post can get along awhile longer with
out your contribution.
0. Don't try to get new members.
George will do II.
10. Don't do any work on post ar
fairs. or any more than is absolutely
necessary. When other members roll
up their sleeves and give unselfshly
of their time and ability to help things
along, get up on your hind legs and
howl that the post Is being run by a
clique.
IL. Remember. you " no duty or

there will be a tendency to raise more
animals and stock. Naturally the
dairy herd will get first attention be-
cause Of Its all-year producing feA'
ture. A good herd of dairy cows is
the barrier between the farmer and
disaster If crops fail. That Is why
more farmers are establishing a herd
instead Of relying entirely on the yield
OF a single product such as wheat.
To successfully keep a herd the
barn must be built according to the
most modern standards. The building
itself should be designed efficiently
and the equipment which Is Installed
in It should bear the test Of a thor.
ough trial.

When some people talk OF building

iy the farm building. While most

phase of the work, 1t nevertheless
