"King Tut' Luncheon HonorS Student
 Of Judson

What would be jollier than a bunch of college girls having a re- union? There's so much to talk over all sorts of camp1s memories come running up and everybody, girl-fash- ion, wants to talk at once. There's the senior reception to talk over, the sclass fight the last Latin exam"
 (although examinations have a very small share in the conversation), and most important of all, a general dis -cussion of students and faculty. ss And the luncheon given by Miss aeRuth Dewberry on Friday was no ex- ~ception to the rule of college re- unions. IL was given in compliment to Miss Foy Glen Gilmore of Brun- didge. whog has been attending sum mer school at Howard college.
 King Tut" himself would have felt entirely at ease in the surroundings, although he might not have been so familiaf with the modern interpreta- ton of his ideas, as carried out in the unique luncheon. All the decorations were Egyptian in design, which plan added greatly to the originality of the party.
 The guests consisted chiefly of Judson college classmates of the . hcnoree. They were as follows: Misses Lillian Fenn, Wnella Gholston of Union Springs, Annie Lou Black of ] Fort Deposit Allen Slade, Lula Gaines of Dothan. Addfe Lee Maddi- son of Plantersville, Eloise Floyd Of Fort Payne, Annie Lee Mason and her guest. Ellen Shelburne, Misses Cora Moss and Eugene Etter of warrior

Lawn Festiuals Bring Cheer On Summer
 EUenings

To cool one's self off, after days work in the torrid heat, nothing quite reaches the spot like ice cream. If big, generous, slice of home made cake goes with it, 1t soothes the tired feeling and reduces the temperature at the same time. And then, if there's home made candy extra, a smile just has to be forthcoming, for the big gest old grouch in the world couldn't stay in a bad humor with those three irresistibles set before him.
 Now, for the tired busl mess man or woman, for the school girl or boy, and for the children of all ages and sizes, tired out with their play. the women of the Parish Improvement association of Our Lady of Sorrows church are already at work, baking cakes and making candy, and Wed nesday will find them with their sleeves rolled up. ready to make ice cream, for the lawn festival to be held that evening.
 The women of the association want the public to come out and take part in the festival They want each one who can to have share in the fun and genuine wholesomeness of it, and to feel that he helped make it a success.
 Games, contests. and other forms of amusement will be provided in ad- dition to the refreshments.

Little to Be Gained by
Cultivation of Alfalfa

So long as the stand is satisfactory
and the plants are making good
growth there Is little to be gained by
cultivating alfalfa, says the United
States Department of Agriculture. A
slight increase in yield is sometimes
obtained by such treatment, but ex-
periments have shown that 1t Is not
ordinarily enough to pay the addition
al cost, and the life of the stand Is
prolonged but little, If any.
Under certain conditions, however,
cultivation of this crop may be worth
while. Where irrigation waters leave
a crust of silt on the fields the use
of the harrow to break it up seems
advisable. Also where irrigated al
falfa Is pastured it is sometimes a
good practice to use harrow to
loosen up the soil, especially If 1t is
heavy-textured. When weeds and
grass threaten to choke out the al
falfa the life Of the stand may BE
proftably prolonged for year or two
by narrowing,
The best implement for this purpose
is the alfalfa harrow, which is a modi-
fication of the spring-to harrow.
The spike-tooth harrow may be used
on the lighter soils, but is Of little use
on the heavy soils. The disk harrow
is very liable to prove injurious.

Uncommon
Sense . .

way to turn, vacillating between the
two courses, the chances are greater
that you will take the wrong road-the
road of the lie.
Your first impulse will be to take the
course of truth. You will know 1t is
the right road. Don't stand at the
cross roads. Go full speed down the
route you know is the right one. Next
time you come to a cross roads with
the same signs displayed, 1t will be
easier to keep right on going.
And If you select the road of truth
you will come to fewer puzzling corners
than you will on the road to lies 1t
will be much easier to stay on the
right road than to get back to it.
Sometimes 1t is impossible to get back.
The same thing will be true of every
road parting which you encounter. To
linger there will be dangerous. To
wabble back and forth between the
two routes will mean that you are
liable to be engulfed in disastrous
chain Of circumstances before you have
made your move. It is just like the
soldier who stands at the cross roads
until she'll searches him out and it's
explosion destroys him.
The armies shelled all cross roads
at frequent intervals because they
knew that somebody was likely to be
there, either because of congested
traffic or because Of indecision as to
which way to go.
Chief among your enemies are your
own weaknesses and habits. They will
deliberately attack you while you are
at the parting Of the ways.

Unforgotten
By GRACE E. HALL

no YOU think of me sometimes,
you who went
On an alien path ere our love grew
cold?
Out in the spaces where you have won
To the heights that you dreamed Of,
have you done
Such deeds as have made you more
content
Than you were in our love of old?
DO you think of me sometimes, where
You are,
And wish you had held to the other
way?
Those high-fung trails-are they all
you crave?
Do they yield the sweetness our young
love gave?
You fastened your wagon to star
Does 1t brighten your every day7
Oil / warm my heart by that youth
time fire
When the breath of the years grows
chill;
And always wonder If you recall
That white-hot fame, when the shad-
ows fall
Do the heights suffice for your souls
desire?
Do they warm like our first loves
thrill?
Do you think Of me sometimes, dear,
out, there,
Where the trails lead high and you
longed to go?
l could not forget If tried / keep
My faith with you ever, awake, asleep /;
And sometimes l call, and it is a
prayer
Do you hear my voice on the warm
night air
Ever, when soft winds blow?

Eradicate Weed Plants
by Preventing Growth

There is only one way to eradicate
noxious perennial plants such as wild
morning glories or pea vine growths,
or whatever kind they may be; and
that Is to prevent them from making
any leaf growth during the last half
Of summer, or after about July 1.
Whatever method you find most con-
venient for doing this will be the most
practical method for you to apply.
Some such plants can be eradicated
by pasturing the last half of summer;
other methods are to keep the land
cultivated the last half of summer, or
to keep them cut down with hoe
when in some cultivated crop, such as
corn; another method is to smother
with straw or by growing some rank
growing crop; another Is to keep the
land moved close to the ground fire.

Discomfort

THERE are those who are contin-
= ually complaining about some mys-
ferrous power which is holding them
back. They begin to grumble at the
breakfast table and keep airing their
discomfort until night, when their
mood changes and they don their best
clothes and hurry away for their Gus
tomary frolic
These are the individuals who pile
upon the backs Of humanity its heavi-
est burdens of unhappiness. They are
always out of step, tagging behind,
contentious, gruff-voiced and ill-hu-
mored.
They would like to sit in the high
places, give orders, read the law of
department to subordinates, but they
lack the spirit to make themselves
capable, so they keep scufling along
their gloomy way and acquiring bear
isha dispositions.
1t involves too much work, too many
depriyations of things which they con
