We are all more or less familiar
with the 'old red barn" which until
recently was as well known along the
country side as the little red school
house. But with the march of prog
ress the little red school house soon
lost its prestige and is now replaced
by the more modern and efficient con-
sOlidated or district school 1t was
inevitable that the antiquated barn
should follow down the road to OBJ

sponsible factors in driving the boy

Here is a singular incident showing
how easy it is TO mistranslate an over
heard remark. Said Mrs. A, one of the
overhearers: "They must have been to
the zoo because / heard her mention

Said Mr.. B: mo, no. They were
talking about going away ana she said
to him, Find out about the train,

Said Mrs. c.: 81 think you are both
wrong. 1t seemed to me they were dis
cussing music, for she sais.: "A trained

Monarch Endured Long.

The most curious contract ever en-
tered into by an operate star was
surely that of Farinelli, who, about
the year 1884, was deriving an income
of 5000 per annum. The singer az
forwards visited Spain, where the
king, Philip V, was suffering from
mental depression, from which moth
ing aroused him until the advent OF
Farinelli. The queen was so delight
ed to see her royal spouse once more
interested in anything, that she en-
gagged Farinelli at salary Of f2,OOO tc
remain in Madrid. This he did, sing
ing the same four songs to the king
every night for ten years. Eventually
Phillip succumbed, but he must have
been a patient monarch.

little recompense. 1t involved
haphazard methods, fnsanitary con-
ditions and poor stock.
Better farm buildings have been the
natural outgrowth of the present cen
fury of efficiency and sanitation. The
old barn could not survive. Better
buildings meant healthier, more con-
tented stock and increased produc-
ton. Increased production is the fore
runner of greater profits and greater
profits mean more comforts of life for
the farmer and his family.
That is why barns such as that
shown are being built on farms
whether they are large or small. If
large enough a barn is built for the
dairy herd alone. And it is well worth
the outlay. But if the farm is not
large enough or does not have large
enough herd to require a special barn
a combination barn is often built to
house cattle and horses. Such build
Ing is this. 1t is a beautiful struc-
ture and one that should inspire any
farmer. 1t does not require vivid
Imagination to see the sturdy sleek
animals housed in this building.
This is called combination horse

made for the housing of horses and
cows. 1t is long building, 124

At this end of the building the
horse stalls are located. There are
stalls for ten horses with a harness
room at one side. These stalls face

Condensation by
Prof. William Fenwick Harris

1t is the charm of the stories of
the Had and the Odyssey that has
aIIured readers In all ages. As the
Had is the first great romance of high
adventure, of deeds of perfect chfvalry
and wild fighting, of brave men and
noble women, so the Odyssey Is the
first great novel of adventure In
strange parts, of miscreants thwarted
and brought to Justice by the hero who

cues the true wife who bides at home
and waits the triumphant return of
him who shall free her from the trials
that beset her.
The Greeks started the modern
world going. As with Icarus they
thought of the fying-man, with Aga
memnon of wireless telegraphy I'm the
message he sent Ieaping across the sea
from Troy to Argos In the flames upon
the hill-tOps, and with Odysseus of
the mOtiOn-picture I'm the vision of all
past men and women who fitted be-
fore his eyes ON his trip to the lower
world, so, too, they introduced us to
practically every form of human ex-
preston. The prose-romance came late
I'm their development. The novel and
the short story as they knew them for
centuries were embodied I'm the Had
and Odyssey.
Whether one poet wrote the Had and
the Odyssey has been question that
has busted many thousands of minds.
The perfect form I'm which they have
come down to us proves clearly that
many centuries contributed to the per-
feetfng of the literary style I'm which
they are written. The discussions over
the "Homeric Problem" have laid the
basis for literary and biblical criticism
In modern scholarship.
