In looking at q picture we should
try to discover what the artist means.
What he Is trying to say to u.s.
Sometimes, as in q landscape, he Is
trying TO reveal q beauty which
might otherwise have escaped our
eyes
"We are so made that we love
First, when we see them, painted
things,
We have passed
Perhaps q hundred times, nor cared
to see,
SO they are better painted, better to
Which is the same thing"
The artist, too, shows us the
beauty Of the commonplace. Not
alone Is youth beautiful, but old age
has its peculiar charm as Rembrandt,
Millet, and others have shown US.
What q charm these artists have
thrown around the aged, wrinkled
face; the coarse brawny peasant 1t
% no small gift to interpret to the
world the beauty Of the common
place.
But the artist can do still more;
he can. create beauty; he can express
by means Of line and color the noble
conceptions Of his mind. As we
come to know the best pictures bet.
ter they are constantly revealing new
truths to us-they become like old
friends, not only q source Of delight,
but Of inspiration and uplift.
After the selection Of the pictures
we would like to live with, the mat
ter Of framing them is Of great i'm
portance. The frame is for the pur-
pose Of giving the picture as much
prominence as possible. II is abb
surd. therefore. to have the frame
so conspicuous that ones attention
is drawn to 1t rather than TO the
picture. In general gilt frames
should be used for colored pictures.
while photographs and prints should
be framed to harmonic in color with
the middle tone Of the pictures. A
brown toned picture should have n
brown frame. a gray toned picture
should have gray or black frame.
Simple inexpensive frames of oak or
some other wood with no ornate pro-
jections to catch the dust are most
satisfactory.
The hanging Of the pictures as
well As the background on which
they are hung makes a great differ
ence. A plain wall pspe-. is best as
far As pictures are concerned. Care
should be taken not to hang the pic.
lures too high, and not to have too
many on the same wall space. They
should be, as q usual thing, on a
level with the eye when standing,
and the bottoms Of the pictures
should be on the same level.
These are just q few suggestions,
given with the hope that Il may In.
spire you to begin at once an sc-
quaintance with pictures that will
enrich your lives and will help ito
make your heart sing as your hands
work"

PICTURES IN THE HOME
A Talk Given 10 the Girls Of the
Foudation Country Home

You all have dreams, I suppose, Of
home Of your own. some day, in
which you will be able to express
your own individual taste, TO work
out some Of the principles which
you are learning here. II Is about
this future home and how you may
be getting ready for IL now that !
wish to talk to you this morning.
As you already know. there is q
great difference between q house and
a home. To man belongs the priv.
lege Of providing the house, to wo-
man the mission Of Transforming II
into a home. You will not be able,
perhaps. to control the house, its To-
cation, style Of architecture, ETC., but
you can control It's decoration. No
matter II you have but little to spend,
you can spend that little we'll.
To make q home beautiful we do
not require rich furnishings, but we
do need taste In selecting what little
We have. II is not about the fur
nishings, however. that I wish to
speak, nor about the books which
every good home must have, but
want to say few words about the
pictures for the home. I do not be-
Eax,a x.,a can avar aat,,,. "a tha v.1,,a
Of good pictures.
Browning has said that
"If you get simple beauty and
naught else,
You get about the best thing God
invents."
And so about the best thing you can
do TO make your home attractive.
after you have made il clean and
wholesome. Is to hang on its walls
q few well-chosen pictures.
Psychologists tell us that the eye
is the first avenue to the soul. That
child learns eighty percent more
thru the sense Of sight than thru
any other sense. How important,
then, that the child should see in
the home only things that are well
selected. The young are very sensi-
tive TO external impressions, and a
home where good taste prevails will
do much to keep the boys and girls
on the street Such home will
have its influence on the whole COM
munity. for good taste Is quick to
spread.
The influence Of q good picture IL
as great as that Of a good book and
much more easily and unconsciously
felt. Picture study should be taken
as seriously as the study Of the mas
ter-pieces Of literature. As among
books, so among pictures, there are
many good but few best.
We should be getting acquainted
with some Of the best pictures Of the
world. We should study them as we
study great books, to enjoy them and
to appropriate what they have to
give us. We can all know the best
pictures, even II we cannot go to the
great art galleries. For we can buy
copies Of all the best pictures Of the
world for a few cents. Nobody then,
ought to be without some good pic
lures. Now is the time to begin
your collection Of pictures as we'll as
Of books. For a few cents you can
hang a Raphael on your wall and
feast your soul.
"A room hung with beautiful pic
lures Is a room hung with beautiful
thoughts" Some one has said that
pictures are windows for the soul"
We come to enjoy pictures just as
we come TO enjoy our friends by
being with them, by coming to know
them better. Many friend who at
first seemed unattractive, on closer
acquaintance becomes beautiful. So

THE FARMERS FIELD DAY


The farmers field meet Of the Be-
rea Soil Experimental Field was a
great success. The attendance was
not 30 large as expected. but the in
terest was much more than even the
near neighbors thought it would be-
Professor Roberts and Mr.. Jones con-
Quoted the field meeting bv visiting
each plot and explaining to the
farmers the treatment Of the soil and
its effect in increased production
One striking experiment was that Of
the yield Of 10 bushels Of corn per
acre on an untreated plot against "a
bushels with lime phosphate and
manure. After inspecting the field
the crowd moved to the schoolhouse,
where the discussion continued until
dinner was served by Mrs. Lewis,
Mrs. Abney, and Mrs. Chestnut.
Everybody had plenty and food re-
NAMED to be carried back home.
These ladies deserve much credit for
their dinner and service. Professor
Good and Mr.. Herndon were the
speakers in the afternoon.
This is the third field meeting on
this field. We hope with this begin
ming that we will have an annual
field meeting for the benefit Of our
farmers. This field belongs to the
farmers and one day should be de-
voted to this work.

BANK STATEMENTS
zens Not Shaken By Recent
Failure

The statement of the condition of
the banks of the country on June 30,
has been called by the government,
aad that of the First National Bank
is published in another column. Al
this season of the year the banks in
the farming sections usually show a
less as it is the last statement previous
to the influx Of money from the sale
Of the crops. The statements of the
local banks are especially significant
because it is the first since the recent
bank failure and would naturally re-
fleet any panicky feeling that might
exist on the part of the people as q
result Of that failure On the contrary,
however, the statements show that the
Lamar people are not alarmed but are
going about their business with full
confidence that the other banks are
omply able to handle the situation.
All the statements show increases in
deposits, end that the bank reserves
are growing instecd of being depleted
by the withdrawal of deposits as
might have been expected. The show
ing is one that means that bank
officers have faced the situation in n
manner both conservative and bene-
fetal 10 the public.

Latest Innovation

There is nothing new under the sun
but the variations on the old things
are sometimes almost AS startling az
IL they we're new. Bootleggers are
such an old institution that even the
oldest excavations of past civilizations
show evidence of their work, but no.
body ever thought there was posi-
bility of bootlegging newspapers until
the Illinois mine war. All Herrin news
sgencies were warned by union walk
ing delegates not to sell any papers
with an account Of the murders there
SO they closed up. The bootlegeers
then took hold and got a supply Of
St. Louis and Chicago papers and did
q land office business at fancy figures.
The public paid dear for the papers
they got, but many Of the strikers
were liberal patrons Of the bootleggers.

RAILROAD STRIKE
With the Union Leaders Openly Defy.
ing the Government. the Issue
l. Made Simple

The action of the government rail
WY labor board in cutting the wages
of the employees about one-third as
mush as the other laborers and pro-
ducers of the country have been cut
has been ne: in the spifit of open
defiance by the leaders of unions
President Harding has stated empha-
tically that the board represents the
government in its action and will have
the entire force Of the administration
behind it, This means that the unions
ere forcing the issue direct against
the government in hopes OF forcing
the latter to take over the roads and
thus get them into politics. Ir this
they are sure to meet with disappoint-
ment. The government took over the
roads once, and the experience was
such that the people will not stand
for any more experimenting in that
line. When any cause or any organ
ization takes up arms against the
American government that cause or
that organization will be destroyed and
the labor union leaders who are advis-
ing their members to go against the
railway labor board are riding to a
hard fall and doing incalculable injury
to the laboring men who have been
duped into trusting leadership to them
This strike is bound to lose and so
far has made no impression whatever.
II it spreads to the other unions they
also will meet the same fate. The
strike is one of the colossal mistakes
Of union leaders. The wages even
after the cut are nearly 40 per cent
higher than in 1917 while most other
laborers are getting little more than
AZ that time and some even less. No
class can expect TO be specially favored
for long in this country. The greatest
need Of the country now Is for reduced
freight rates and the only way to
secure this is to bring labor prices
or the roads somewhere near down to
the level of other wages in similar
lines.

COLORADO REMAINS QUIET
Prompt Action by Governor Shoup and
-Adiutant General Hamrock Prevents
Trouble at Mines

Influenced by the apparent success
of anarchists At Herrin, Illinois, the
striking miners in the various camps
in Colorado prepared to celebrate the
Fourth with few demonstrations in
Colorado that they believed would have
the effect of stopping work at the
mines, most of which are running with
a good force Of men, and Getting out
u supply of coal that will :idet this
section over the strike period. Gov
crnor Shoup issued immediate orders
turning the question Of maintaining
order in the camps over to Adiutant
General Pat Hamrock, and that gentle
man acted with such promptness that
all attempts on the part of the strik-
ers to commit crimes were squelched.
The only thing left to them in the line
Of creating a disturbance was the
privilege Of callngi Shoup and Hamrock
names and this they are exercising
in the EXTREMIST degree. The air is
filled with expletives but they are not
50 destructive Of life and property as
the explosives that filled the sir ut
Hcrrin. The history OF the past teach
-. us that the strikers at Frcdericks
and the southern coal fields are Just
as capable Of pulling off such crimes
IS those at Herrin, but here as there
Esy fear the strong arm of the law
because they are towards at heart.
There they conrolled the government
but our people can be thankful that
in Colorado the government conrols
them. In Illinois S. and H. stood for
Governor Small and Colonel Hunter:
in Colorado they stand for Governor
Shoup and Colonel Hamrock-and
there's world of difference in what
the same letters stand for. Colorado
is to be congratulated.

LAMAR NEEDS HANGAR
Aviation Field Should Be Equipped to

Fliers

Lieutenant Peck Of Fort Sill stopped

Fort and spent the night here leaving
for home post early Sunday morning.
In conversation, the Lieutenant stated
that as far as the Fort Sill aviation
corps is concerned ii makes no differ
cnce. All like Lamar and will stop
here every time they can, but the many
private fliers who are now making
trips across the country will only stop
where they know there are housing
accommodation. He says an ample
hanger can be constructed for abou.
4 thousand dollars ard that otherwise
the landing field here is fine. If this
was provided the Lieutenant would
see that the Lamar field is advertised
in all aviation journals throughout the
country without cost and this would
insure large part of the cross country
fliers stopping here as this place is
well located for a stopping point for
supplies. The building would soon
pay for itself in this way.

LAMAR LOSES TWO
Baseball Team Has Bad Week, But
Sunday Game Was Real Thriller

The Lamar team lost both ito Sun
day and Fourth of July games this
week, but had he satisfaction of know
ing that they helped stage one Of the
greatest games ever played in the
valley on last Sunday at Fort Lyon
and were only defeated after playing
five extra innings. A bunch of fans
accompanied the team to the Fort on
Sunday afternoon and were repaid by
witnessing real thriller. The Lamar
boys took the lead at the start and
were still leading to / when tho
last half of the ninth inning opened
For Lyon staged rally then and put
two runs across assisted by an error.
In the twelfth inning Hoover made
base and was sent back by the umpire.
As this was followed by : hit that
would have scored him, the decision
OF the umpire, who admitted he did
not see whether the runner touched
the base on not, was the cause of
Lamar losing the game. Fort Lyon
made one run in the fourteenth inning
rlTkiag the score TO 8.
The game at Queen Beach OH the
Fourth with Elkhart WAS as ane fan
states crime instead OF a game. 1t
was loosely played by both teams as
the rough ground made the Judging
of direction and bounding OF balls i'm
possible. The fielding was SO ragged
that the scorers out Of pity refused
TO chalk up the errors. The following
score by innings tells the horrible
tale:

The game was tied twice and for
q breathing spell of one inning Lamar
WAS in the lead but that was the best
they could do. The Elkhart boys had
more experience chasing jackrabbits
than our boys and were therefore more
expert on fielding those prairie jump
ers.
