a guaranty that it was the ~blamedest,
coolest lemonade ever sold.
Under the shadiest trees a few in
corrigible Marthas were spreading the
snowy table-cloths on which would
soon be placed the bountiful repasts
stored in ponderOus wicker baskets
and hampers. 1t was a lovely day, in
a lovely spot-a good example of the
miniature forests which grew natural

locations on the Iowa prairies-half a

1t was rather obvious to Mrs. Bonner
that Jennie was throwing herself at
Jim's head, but that was an article of
the Bonner family creed since the de-

CHAPTER XIV
The Glorious Fourth.

A good deal of water ran under the
Woodruff district bridges in the weeks
between the school election and the
Fourth of July picnic at Eight-Mile
grove. But few surface indications
there were of any change in the little
community in this annual gathering of
friends and n%eighbOrs. Wilbur Smythe
made the annual address, and was in
rather finer fettle than usual as he

most favored spot in the best coun-
ty of the greatest state in the most
powerful, Intellectual, freest and most
progressive nation in the best possible
of worlds.
Jim Irwin read the Declaration
rather well, Jennie Woodruff thought,
as she sat on the platform between
Deacon Avery, the oldest settler in the
district, and Mrs. Columbus Brown,
the sole local representative of the
Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion. Colonel Woodruff presided in his
Grand Army of the Republic uniform.

MAKE THIS THE GOLDEN RULE YEAR
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Inquirier)

prominent resident of Delaware has sent letter
to the Governor the States in the Union in
which he urges the adoption of the Golden Rule by the
American people to help stem the chaos to-
ward which world is drifting His purpose in address,
ing the Executives to induce them to speak to the peo
pie in their official messages.
The author of the suggestion-Mr. T. T. Cloward-
says his thought to temper practcay with humanity
as this great practical age not altogether and
needs softenng by the human heart This is so true that
it is a wonder why it is not more generally recognized
The most efficient business in the world cannot on in
definitely if it does not have in other touch
humanity The is true of governments Men in pub
lie life most successful those who know and
recognize the weaknesses of human nature, and who try
to improve it in kindly well statesmanlike way
President Harding possesses this humanizing touch in
pre-eminent degree Governor Smith, of New York, has
wide popularity because he realizes that that great
State he apty puts it, is not composed solely OF
rivers business establishments but of men and
women as we'll.
1t would be wonderful thing if the vast majority OF
the people this country really to live according to
Golden Rule for the next twelve months They might
stumble and hesitate at times but in the end the results
would so gratifying that most of them would want to
make experiment permanent feature of their lives
