It's called the Northside Ladies club
IT'S the only place to 60.
I've heard of social parties,
I've heard of the old wash tub,
But the best place to spend your time
Is at the Northside Ladies club.
That's where you have a good time,
Coffee, cake and good things rare.
When I an old enough to go,
L insure you'll find me there.
Leave your troubles behind you
For they are not welcome here.
This is a place to talk and laugh,
And always be in good cheer.
All ladies they are welcome,
But the men must stay at home,
For if you let them in on this
I'm sure things would go wrong.

Something to

THE QUEST
By r. II. WALKER

~ moe the Punishment of Adam and
- Eve from the garden Of Eden,
there has been a quest among
their kind which has continued with
out intermission.
In this question there is at every
turn of our hands and every shift OF
our eyes, signs Of fear, doubt ana
greed. Time lightens not the labor Of
It. but the chase continues. All hui
mans are in the struggle, seeking
something-a cherished ideal or some
tangible substance which they would
gladly clasp to their bosoms and call
their own But the reward is for the
faithful.
The faithful and those who heed the
teachings of the Golden Rule plod
along ncomplainingly, steadily and 81
lently like the tides. They accept
conditions and do their best.
They know not the petrifying fear
that makes moral towards of the lag
CARDS. who shirk duty and are
ashamed to soil their hands with the
Crime of honest toll.
The commandment which says, six
DAVIS shalt hot labor" has no terrors
for them, so they shoulder their bur-
dens and march on to the end with
clean souls and smiling faces.
These are the real workers, the salt
of the earth. the faithful and the
trusting. the builders of nations.
Life to them is endurable. 1t is
sweet in the morning when the sun
eilds the east, seductive at night when
they are tired and sleep comes unbid-
den and carries them to the land OF
dreams.
They make agreeable friendships
among their co-workers, and always
have friends at home who are glad to
welcome them.
Their quest resolves itself into one
of love. and in holding fast to divine
precepts. it soon becomes their absorb
ing ambition. Their hearts are attuned
to heavens music.
They have no wish to pile up gold

Raising the standard of farm an
imals and poultry and bringing out
certain desirable characteristics by
s~lective breeding is receiving more
attention as methods of farming for
profit become intensified.
The breeding of domestic animals
dates back to remote antiquity, when
the most advanced races of the old
world were still on the border line
between savagery and barbarism. 1t
far %antedates any but the simplest
mechanical arts. Yet while u
knowledge of the laws of nature as
they apply to mechanics has reached
very great magnitude and completely,
it is comparatively only a few
years since the principles of breeding
have been more than a collection of
unrelated traditional beliefs.
The same supersitions on which the
shepherds of Asia based their prac-
tees at least 80 centuries ago are still
widely current, while the one sound
principle known to the ancients-se-
lection of the best for breeding stock
lis still largely neglected.
The principles of successful animal
breeding, as they have been learned
by practical experience in the United
States and other older countries, and
by careful scientific study along def
nito linac orc o,,+Iinad in Danartmapt
Bulletin 905, recently issued by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture.
This bulletin goes into the first prin-
ciples of reproduction and follows the
means by which certain characters
tics of n or the other parent are
transmitted to the offspring, the meth
DDS of selection best suited to inten-
sify the desirable characteristics and
weed out the undesirable, the char
acteristics which can with certainty
be expected to continue from one gen.
to another, those which are
uncertain, those which will blend, and
those which canno be inherited.
Aside from mere increase in num-
bers the purposes which the breeder
is likely to have in mind fall under
two more or less distinct heads, name
ly, production of a uniform product,
and Improvement. A uniform prod
uct depends on such control over the
.eredity of the stock that matings
can be made with the assurance that
the offspring will be of a certain
definite type for which there is a

demand. Improvement is, of course,
closely related to control over hered-
ity, but the methods which give the
greatest control are not necessarily
those which lead to the most rapid
Improvement.
In a broad sense the whole subject
of practical breeding comes under the
head of selection. The most obvious
basis for such selection is the per-
Torrance of the animals themselves.
Unfortunately, the merit of most
kinds of live stock cannot be meas
ured directly. The study of conforma-
ton as an index of useful qualities
has accordingly held a high place
as a basis for selection of breeding
stock. Live stock judging has this
for it's. purpose. An animal of good
breeding is a better one to breed than
one of equal individual merit but of
mixed or common breeding. Pedi-
gree, though often misused, is a val
liable aid to selection, apart from fol-
lowing a general policy of mating.
The soundest basis of all for selec-
ton of breeding stock is the record
of past performapce as a breeder, pro-
vided the record is sufficiently extern
sive to give a fair test.

The tr~avelogue on Our National
Parks given by Scott Leavitt last
Wednesday evening in the high
school assembly was enjoyed by all
who saw it.
Mr.. Leavitt, who is president of
our National Park ia Park Highway
made the trip of 5000 miles through
the nine great National Parks,
which are all in the western part of
the United States.
For an hour he held the attention
of the audience as he took them with
him through the scenic Wonderland
of America.
The pictures first showed "Mon-
tana's Masterpiece" Glacier Park.
The next stop was made at Mt. Rainier
in Washington, "The Mountain that
was God" A few slides showed
"The Mystery of the Mountains
Crater Lake, in Oregon. Many beau
tiful pictures were shown of the Gro
nance of the S~ierras," Yosemite, in
California.
The great trees in California were
shown. AS Mr.. Leavitt said, these

NAME OMITTED FROM
HONOR LIST LAST WEEK

In last weeks issue the name of
Evelyn Nahum of Waska, was in
advertently omitted from the list of
those who received honorable men
ton for the fine list of P-words sent
in. Miss Nahum stood near the top
of those who received honorable men
ton and it is only fair that she be
given credit.
In this connection it is interesting
to note the results reported by some
of the other papers which put on
the same puzzle contest that The
Herald did. In our contest the
scores of the prize winners ranged
from 141 to 1913. In the contest put
on by the Munising (Mich.) News,
the scores of the prize winners rang
ed from 141 to 1872. The Park Re
gion Echo of Alexandria, Mimi, re-
ports a range of scores from 142 to
119 for the successful candidates.
Also in both cases it was not the
longest so much as the most careful
ly compiled lists that won the prizes.
The Munising News says: "None of
the lists were perfect and it was
evident that the contestants in the
did not give proper heed to the
rule which provides a penalty for in
correct words listed in excess of Is.
AS a result of incorrect words many
lists were subject to the penalty and

These comments were received in
one day recently by the United States
Department of Agriculture from per-
sons enrolled in the better Sires-
better stock movement. In addition,
many others stated that, although
they did not own purebred sires. their
female stock was bred to such ami
mails, thus complying with the essen
tial requirements of the better-sires
campaign.

The Hesa Verde, "Mute Home of

Colorado, was one of the most in

supplied by Mr.. Leavitt took us back
to the time when these people lived.
Imprints Of their struggles for a liv-

of pictures which followed were of

If every American could take this

would say "See America First"

The reason is self-evident." This
paper also reports one contest
ant who wrote down all the p-nouns
in the dictionary. In the Michigan
contest, as was the case here, the
majority of the prize winners did

in the Minnesota contest the win
ners of the first three prizes had all
qualified in class five.

AS YOU THINK, SO YOU ARE

If you think you're beaten, you are,
If you think that you dare not, you don't,
If you'd like to win, but you think you can't
It's almost a "cinch" that you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost,
For out in the yorld you find
Success begins with a fellows will:
It's all in the state of mind.
Full many a race is lost
Ere even a step is run,
And many a coward falls
Ere even his works begun.
Think big, and your deeds will grow;
Think small and you'll fall behind;
Think that you can and you will:
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you're outclassed, you are;
You've got to think high to rise;
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the fellow who thinks he can.
