looking for them, and is receptive

progress is made, whether by in

"You can talk about the fasci-
nation of digging hundreds of feet
into the ground for wealth that
may not be there. But this country
is covered a foot deep, on top OF
the ground, with mines Of wealth
waiting to be put to better uses
than anybody has yet thought of
for them. There are simply ire
mendous opportunities in every
industry. All it needs is men with
the fresh vision, and the friendli-

THE TWO SPOONS

Ever hear the story OF The Two
Spoons? Perhaps it's an old, old
story, but / had never heard IL
until recently-so maybe you have
not either.
1t seems that somebody had CIV
en- the bride two fine silver
spoons. Since, as usual on such
occasions, there was a plentitude
of such gifts, only one Of the
spoons was put into actual SER
vice. The other was carefully
wrapped in it's red plush contain
er and stored away in drawer.
Just before put away, the one
spoon said to the other: I'm
sorry for you, conrad. You'll be
used every day and all that nice
gloss will wear off, and you'll be
an awful looking thing pretty soon.
I'm lucky, / am. I'm going to be
put away, and a year from now,
when you're about worn out, I
shall be as spick and span and
bright as ever. I'm sorry for YOU

WOMEN LESS EASILY FOOL.
ED WITH WORDS

do not deny that there is some
thing to be said from the male
point of view. The average woman
has been less educated, less Access
sible to broad common sense than
the average man. But she is com.
ing along fast. She listens, she
cogitates, she turns the whole
strength or her piercing II not
broad vision on the subject in hand.
Women are, in my experience, far
less easily fooled with words than
men are. They agree with famous
general Of my acquaintance who
told me that when being talked to
and overpersuaded by politicians,
he used to put glass in front Of
him.
This is q glass, say to my
self. They will prove to me that it
is mirror, q jug. basin, any
thing you like. But in the middle
Of the whirling argument | keep
my mind fixed on the fact know.

Listen to almost any politicians
speech nowadays. 1t is composed
of hopes, fears, beliefs, appeals.

speakers facts and figures, and

GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY

The present conception OF liv-
ing and being useful is reversal
OF many OF the traditions OF the
past. Age is no longer an accum-
ulation OF years. 1t is q state Of
mind and the heart. The man CT
woman of 20, or so, or 80 is no
longer looked upon as freak.
Francis Wilson, the eminent ac-
tor, himself man OF 81 years and
still active on the stage, recently
was called before the curtain by
one Of his enthusiastic audiences.
He said: Il haven't been able to
keep the gray out OF my hair, but
! have kept it out Of my heart
and my legs."
But everybody knows some
young fellow OF 20 years who
spends hours daily upon the golf
links. Gone are the days when
skull caps and canes were the
companions of three score and
ten. The zest OF life has not all
departed when the clock times
the half century. - Rock Island

Gust Born, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Born, was born Jan. j,
1874, and on Oct. q, 1924, met with
a. most sorrowfu1 accident which
resulted in death instantly while
on his way home for dinner. Mr..
Born lad previously spoken to a

ties quickly after dinner. He had
frequently crossed the tracks at

beneath their power seems almost

really"
"Oh, that's all right" said the
other spoon. Il guess I'll have
enough to do to keep me from
worrying about appearances
And so the one spoon was put
TO work and the other to rest.
A year later, the spoon that had
been carefully put away was dug
out of its hiding place with the
idea of being put to work. And. oh.
what a sorry-looking spoon it was !!
It's once shiny surface had turn,
ed to = greenish yellow, 1t was,
indeed, a far different spoon from
its former self.
Hello" said a friendly voice,
as the sorry-looking spoon was
placed on q table IN the kitch gu.
AMI there was inc ether spoon
the che sat had ben working
every day during that year. Its
surface wasn't quite so shiny as it
had been, but then it had a
healthy color, and it was wearing
most contented smile. Pityingly
it looked at it's companion. well,
your rest doesn't seem to have
done you much good" it said sim
ply.
NO." replied the other spoon
sadly. 81 suppose | would have
been better off if | had been put
to work like you were"
Isn't the moral plain? We must
work in this life, we must serve,
we must be useful, if we would
succeed. Stop using either arm for
month and its muscles will be-
come flabby. Stop using your influ-
ence for good in the world, and it,
too, will atrophy. FAN to renew
from day to day your desire to
prove helpful, and soon you will be
unable to help. Hard work is a
panacea for a lot OF ills Jerome

were also at the home.
The commfttal at the Williams
Porter lot in Walnut Hill GENE
tery was read by Rev. Laurenson,
after which the guard of honor
o. Doppler, George Indermauer,
Charles Rote, w. H. Hamilton,
Albert Roser, and Riel Plummer-
stepped forward and fred farewell
shots over the casket as it lay
amidst flowers ready to be lower
ed into its last resting place. Just
before leaving Mr.. Dubois picked
up several of the empty cartridges
and threw them into the grave, in
dicative that the deceased had de-
Tended the flag in the time of war.
The bearers were T. r. Will
Jams, A. P. Cheek, w. L. Berkeley,
George Hammermeister, Ed.
Bump and H. J. Bohn. Both the
guard of honor and bearers were
from the Sons of Veterans camp.
Among those from out of town
were Mr.. and Mrs. A. H. Williams,
Chicago, and Mrs. B. N. Webster,
Rice Lake. Mrs. r. B. Griggs, who
is a patient in st. Mary's-Ringling
hospital as the result of broken
arm from a fall, was not able to
be present at the services.
The passing of Walworth Del
avian Porter removes another link
between territorial Wisconsin and
the present, between early Bara-
boo and the Gem City Of today.
The words Walworth and Delavan,
a county and city in Southeastern
Wisconsin bearing those names,
go back to the formative time in
the states history. Only three
years after Wisconsin was set off
from Michigan, carved into a new
territory, 1886, Mr.. Porter was
born in Walworth county, near
Delavan, in this state.
Mr.. Porter was fortunate in being
able to journey so far with the
history of the commonwealth. He
came into new west, busy estab-
fishing a new civilization. In his
youth he lived through the excit-
ing times leading up to the Civil
War, then fought to save the
union, enjoyed many a campfire
with the surviving members of his
cavalry company, and in later
years lived happily in his garden
and amidst his flowers.
His memory extended back to
the days of the tallow candle, fail
homespun, stage coach and tavern.
He was able to see greater strid-
es in science than most people,
able to seeN the development of
most Of our modern conveniences.
What a wonderful age it was in
which he lived.
A venerable citizen, kind
neighbor, faithful soldier, he
has gone out to his long bivouac.
