SAYS MODERN YOUNG.
 FOLKS STEP ON IT.
Dr. Ahlqulst Says Appetite for
 Pleasure Should Be Curbed

Next to the church, the Chamber of Commerce and the civic clubs oi the city have the greatest duty to per- form towards the citizenship of the eemmunity, according to Rev, Dr. Abel A. Ahlquist, pastor Of the First Lutheran church, in an address at a meeting of the Chamber Of com- msree and combined civic clubs al the Burritt hotel last evening,
 Talking about the trend of modern times the pastor of the First Lutheran church, quoted school boy, who, when asked by his teacher what Fir Walter Raleigh said 10 Queen Eliza beth when he spread his cloak on the ground. replied, "stsn on it, kid, step on it," ...
 "It seems 10 me that the younger generation is stepping on it altogether too much and we who have more ex. perienee in life much curb their anpe- lite for pleasure and enjoyment"
 Many men are so busy making money they won't stop until a nhysi- cal breakdown comes, Then they go to Florida. that modern paradise, al the end Of the season when every hody else has gone home and sit all day on a lonely hotel porch listening 10 the sound Of their own arteries hardening. because they had not looked out on the world with the eyes of one who wants 10 do things for others.
 "T' Is time for ur 10 take our first aid kits 10 help cure the ills Of so- ciety. Many who need the education that school teachers cannot give them, need some man 10 give them word of encouragement. Many boy has been put on the right path by word of encoura cement from some one in the community whom he reveres."
 There were 1b5 people present at the gathering including number of women. The meeting was opened by Hartwell Taylor president of the Ro- tary club. which acted as host. and later was turned over to Joseph R. Andrews. president of the Chamber of Commerce.
 Several songs were rendered by the Clef Male quartet
 George P. Hart. former chairman of the board of directors of the Stan ley works, gave an interesting lecture on his trip around the world. telling of various points of interest at which he stopped en route and of interesting things he saw. The lecture was illus trated by stereopticon views. Mfr. Hart's journey was covered in full by the Herald" upon his return a little over two months ago.

tion per head, found by adding interest
and rent, actually paid to the operat-
ing cost was $50. Some well n,znag-
ed ranches, however achieved results
in calf crops in utilization of labor and
by keeping down costs, that were con-
siderably better than the average.
The showing of these exceptional
exceptional ranches, nevertheless, Is
not considered hopeIessly beyond the
reach Of the others.
Ranchers. says the department,
should lay more emphasis on the pro-
duction of standardized products.
Feeders recognize the superiority of
uniform stockers and feeders. Cow
herds should therefore be chilled with
care and each replacement should be
superior in quality to the last one.
Bulls Of uniform blood lines that would
quickly impart to and fix in their of
spring desired characteristics, should
be purchased. The tendancy in mod
crate cattle is toward early maturity
and higher dressing percentage. The
chief factor in bringing about .
change in type has been change in
retail demand. The public. while more
fastidious, does not buy as large
cuts of meat as formerly. Modifica-
tious in market standards are based
on these fundamental facts.
