NATIONAL EGG
DAY ON MAY |

In conjunction with poultry raisers
throughout both the United States and
Arizona, the Sulphur Springs valley
poultrymen will observe May 1 as
National Egg Day" with the aim of
interesting everyone in this vicinity
in the remarkable progress and tre-
mendous possibilities which lie in that
field of endeayor right here neac
Douglas.
The chief emphasis on the day in
this section will be placed on window
displays in probably a half dozen OF
the leading stores in the city. 1t is
hoped to make these displays both at
tractive and at the same time indica-
tive of the great work being done in
the poultry field in the valley A
county committee consisting of Earl
Salms, president of the Cochise County
Poultry association; H. K. Deeds of
Douglas and c.. Smith of Wilcox will
have charge of the observation of the
day in this county and are already at
work to arrange for the window dis
plays on May 1. Bisbee and other cit
along the same lines as Douglas in
this matter.
Deeds is very enthusiastic about the
poultry achievements to date in the
valley and believes that if good win
dow displays are offered here on ma
tional Egg Day" that great many
Douglasites who are not familiar with
the possibilities in the field of poul-
try will be awakened to them.
The following proclamation has been
issued by the National Poultry coun-
Gil of the United States in regard to
the egg day:
WHEREAS, The egg occupies a po-
sition of great distinction and one of
peculiar merit and usefulness in the
diet of our people, being extremely
rich and we'll balanced in digestible
food nutrients, and being of great
value as a protective food through the
high vitamine content which it car
ries; and
Whereas, More people are directly
interested in the production and con-
sumption of eggs than any other sin
gle food commodity; and
Whereas, The poultry industry of the
United States has reached position
of great magnitude, being one of our
leading agricultural pursuits; and
Whereas, The value of the products
produced by the American hen for the
current year is estimated to be ap-
proximatelW a billion anl quarter
dollars;
Therefore: The National Poultry
council of the United States, repre-
senting every phase of egg and poultry
production, including the allied
branches, does hereby set aside and
proclaim Saturday, May 1, 1926, as
National Egg Day." The National
Poultry council further asks all inter
ested citizens, companies, corpora
tions, associations and organizations to
fully in the celebration of
National Egg, Day.
The National Poultry council asks
the fullest cooperation and support
from every Interested agency with the
national and state committees which
are being organized to develop and
promote appropriate observance of
National Egg Day."

These Girls.

TheSe Girls
They steal our fashions,
They steal our hair cuts,
They mootch our hootch,
And smoke our cigarettes,
They wear our knickers
And they wear our slipover sweaters.
A few of EN- have even gone so far
As to raise boards,
And they, too, have made a go of it.
But so far we've never seen one
That would let her manly nature
Assert itself far enough TO make her
Let her socks hang down.

search of his son. On arriving at
IIoxie he was informed that the signal
gang was at O'Kean. Mr.. Thompson
hired service car to drive him to
O'Kean: but on his arrival there was
informed that the gang was in the
neighborhood of Knobel. Fearing that
he might miss the wOrRmen if he drove
the dirt road to KnObel, Thompson set
out on foot for Knobel, distance of
some 20 miles. So eager was he that
he might again see his son he. forgot
his II years and walked the distance.
Arriving there he learned the gang was
at Tuckerman. He boarded thain No,
80 at Knobel for Hoxie. This train
stops at HOxie and he could go no
further that night. He was informed
at Hoxie that at the yard Office in
that city he could probably find out
where his son was. He went down TO
that Office and learned from second
trick operator Hatley Ring, that there
were a number of these signal gangs
and that he had no way Of finding out
just which one was wanted. Ring
called the operator at Newport and
asked him to go to the railroad hotel
in that city and learn If Young ThOmp-
Ison was registered there. The operator
soon reported that he was, but that
he was out to some kind of social func-
ton, but that as soon as he returned
to the hotel the operator would have
him call Hoxie. He soon called and
Mr.. Ring connected the elder Thomp-
son onto the Newport line and allowed
him to speak to his son. The old
gentleman broke down when he heard
the voice of his son, but operator Ring
informed the boy that il was his
father speaking and asked him to
come to Hoxie on No. 1S which was
due at Newport within few minutes
The boy caught the train as agreed
and according to Mr. Ring ii was n
grand and glorious meeting when the
two met at the HOxie station. Trains
ran too slow for the boy to wait to see
his mother, and securing service
car the united father and son set out
for Williford, distance of some 40
miles.
The boy stated that he had been as
jealous in trying to find his parents
as his parents had been in trying to
find him, but because of the fact that
the family had been moving from place
to place he could not find them.-Wal-
nut Ridge Blade.

MAN BELIEVED DEAD
is FOUND BY FATHER

When the United States declared
war on Germany i'm 1917, Wesley
Thompson, Il lad in his teens, volun-
teefed his services in the army to
fight for his country. At that time
his parents were living at Peach Or
chard.
During hOstilitles his name was in
cluded among those who had fallen in
France and his parents accepted the
report as true and mourned him dead.
In the meantime the ThompsOns NOV
ed from Peach Orchard and their ad-
dress was unknown to the postmaster
at that place. In 1920 w. II. Thomp-
son, father of the boy, heard that Wes-
ley had not been killed in battle, but
that he was in Philadelphia, Pa. Eff
forts to locate the lad proved unavail-
ing. and though elated over the fact
that his son was still alive and had
not been killed as he thought, the elder
Thompson was grieved because he
could not locate his son.
Last week Mr.. Thompson was In
formed that his son was employed with
a railroad signal gang which has been
working in this locality. The Thomp-
sons are now living at Willif0rd, in
Sharp county. Mr.. Thompson immedi-
ately boarded the train for Hoxie in

Following the reelection Of DR..
George W. Mcdaniel, Richmond, Va,
as president, he sounded in his inau-
gural address a conviction on the
theory Of evolution that was prompt
ly and unanimously adopted by the
Convention as It's own sentiment.
DR.. Mcdaniel said:
Il am happy to believe that this
Convention accepts Genesis as teach
ing that man was the special crea-
tion of God and rejects every theory,
evolution or other, which teaches
that man originated in, or came by
way of, a lower animal ancestry"
With the evolution question dis
posed of, the Convention was able
to proceed with a consideration Of
its great missionary and benevolent
enterprises.
Here are some of the outstanding
developments of the Convention:
GOAL OF 100000 SET UP
1. In the hope Of enabling the
mission boards and other agencies
Of the Convention to take care OF
their Indebtedness gradually without
having to too greatly curtail their
present work, an objective Of $9,O0O,-
900 for missions, education and be-
nevolences was set up for 1927, on
recommendation of the Cooperative
Program Commission. This money
will be applied to foreign, home and
state missions, Baptist schools,
orphanages and hospitals and minis
terial relief, thus taking care OF
both the state and Southwide Bap-
list work. It Is hoped the South
wide portion Of the budget will
amount to at least 100000.
2. An effort will be made to en-
list 100000 tithers during the next
year.
3. The Foreign Mission Board
reported 1920 baptisms on Its fields
during the year, gain Of about
1000 over the previous year. The
board has 1915 churches on the for
eign fields with 140,4s8 members,
9.247 out-stations where preaching
services are held from time 10 time,
and b2S missionaries and 2,644 ma
tive Christian workers employed In
II countries.
4. Among the results for the year
reported by the Home Mission Board
were s33 missionaries employed,
1874 baptisms, 35,226 additions to
the churches, 100 new churches and
45s Sunday schools organized, and
4O2 church houses built or improved.
DENOMINATION GREW DURING
YEAR
s. The Sunday School Board re-
ported total business receipts for the
year Of s1,710,A71. OF this amount
SSs0,344 was put back into the gem
eral work Of the denomination. A to-
tai Of 89,O38 awards In teacher
training were made, 4o3 churches
were aided by the Architectural De-
partment in drawing plans for new
houses of worship, the number OF
standard Sunday schools reached b48.
With the gains for the past year
the main figures of the denomina-
ton are now given by the statistical
secretary Of the Convention as fol-
lows: 26,467 churches, 1s,o0S or
dained ministers, 3,649, $3.50 church
members, 21 ,76O Sunday schools with
1881, 1928 pupils, 2O,965 church

property ,574 contributed to
local church objects, $8,255, ,S35 to
missions and benevolences and $780,

past year.
The time is now ripe for dis
tinct Baptist advance all along the
line and especially in a support Of
the great missionary and benevolent
enterprises fostered by the Co
