From small beginnings and by care
full steps the cause of unionism fought
its yzfy up out of nothing to be a
power for good in the world. 1t filled

thecause OF that freedom guaranteed
by the Constitution.
Its best friends believe it has gone
too far; that it has so far overstepp-
ed its original purposes, SO far en-
couraged, even if secretly, violence,
and bloodshed, with no care whether
or not the innocent suffer with the

of its musused power by the only

THE FAITHFUL EARTH.
New York Herald.)

Men sneered at the July weather
but mems friend, the good old brown
earth, smiled over it. The reason is
made plain in the United States cror
forecasts.
Three billion bushels of corn-the
fourth largest in the farming history
of the United States.
An increase of 100000 bushels
of spring wheat.
A record crop of hays, OOO, OOC
tons.
The second largest crop of white
potatoes ever grown.
Two bushels of apples for every
person in the country.
The fourth largest tobacco crop.
Up in Canada the crop estimator
say that the production of grains Of
all kinds will far exceed last wears
harvest.
Even in Russia, where everything
else has gone to smash, Nature re.
fuses to turn bolshevik. The when,
harvest, says Moscow, is more than
enough to feed the entire Russian
population TO-. n year.
1t is mary elous the way that this
planet, plauged by wars, strikes
grafters, tax eaters and common o.,
garden fools, manages to sprout
enough food for the Two Billion.

PREPARING A PLACE.

A certain minister who had been
asked by his congregation to turn
in his resignation selected as his
text for his farewell sermon, the fol-
lowing:
II go to prepare place for you,
that where I am there ye may be
also.p
A stranger, noting the disapprov-
al with which the text was received
by members of the congregation,
turned an inquiring eye on the man
sitting beside him. He received back
this answer, delivered in hoarsc
whisper:
"He's going to be the chaplain at

marriage I began to have singing

The bootlegger who operates by the
aid of the sea is more desperate than
the land bootlegger. for he usually
has more at stake. That is, he deals
