COMING TO THE POINT

As though he were afraid that I
would think he had'a kindly thought
in his brain, Mr.. Hathaway drew his
brOws into a frOwning straight line
over his nose. | knew he was think
ing about his son and how the young
er generation had some strange ideas
IN regard to what they called their
independence.
l went steadily on with my story.
He did not again interrupt until /
said had gone the first night TO his
restaurant. j
"Why did you pick on the Bcaux
Arts?' he asked suspiciously. Ibid
you not know it was the most cxpcn.
sive eating place in all the town? It
certainly was not "A place where q
girl who had to work for her living
would eat unless someone else paid
for her meal" s
Il didn't know anything about it,
sir, except that it looked like one Of
those stylish restaurants | had read
about and determined that for once
in my life | would sec what was in
side. would taste what kind Of food
they served and look upon the bcau-
tiful ladies had heard so much

She should cndcavor to eat only
those foods which agree with her
and she should be careful not to eat
green fruit and other food which
may set up digestive disturbances.
A nursing mother should never
take any drug without the advice Of
q physician. Alcohol in any form
should never be taken by the nurs-
ing mother. It used t6 be . common
practice for mothers to take malt
liquors to stimulate the flow Of milk.
Malt Drinks
While under. proper medical SUI
pervision the use Of malt drinks
might have some slight value as a
temporary measure, the safest rule
has always been to avoid all arco-
holic beverages. Good results may
sometimes be secured by taking an
increased amount Of fluids in the
form of cocoa. beef tea, buttcrmilk
or pure cows milk.
The mother should avoid all UNI
usual excitement or those things
which tend to an unusual outburst
of the emotions. Life should be SO
regulated rs to protect mothers from

CROP REPORT

The weather in general throughout
the northwest has been favorable for
field work during the past week, and
splendid progress is being made with
seeding In all sections. says the week
ly crop report Of the Van Dusen Har-
rington company of Minneapolis. The
ground is still freezing at night in
nothcrn districts, but this has not to
any great extent delayed operations.
Our reports indicating lack Of mois-
turc, however. are increasing. There
have been a few local showers
throughout the territory. but the
usual spring rains have not yet put
in an appearance. In view Of the
general lack of subsoil moisture,
ample precipitation is necessary for
proper development Of the crops, and
this factor will be Of tremendous inn
portancc during the next few weeks.
In southern Minnesota and South
Dakota wheat seeding is practically
completed, and in some districts
farmers are we'll along with the seed
ing Of coarse grains. Due to the small
amount Of moisture, spotted and un-
even conditions are developing. Some
Of the carly sown fields are already
showing green in the low spots, while
in the higher portions of the same
fields the seed has not yet sproutcd.
Our reports indicate that in the
Red River valley district of Mime.
sofa and North Dakota, and in SOUTH
crn districts Of North Dakota, wheat
seeding is about seventy per cent
completed, while in sections to the
north it varies from 10 to 40 per cent
of completion. In Montana our cor
respondents advise us that about 35
per cent Of wheat seeding has been
finished.
Winter rye is beginning to show an
uneven condition and in general the
prospects for this crop could hardly
be called favorable at this time.
From Montana reports indicate that
up to the present winter wheat is
making q good showing. No serious
winter killing is in evidence. and
moisture conditions in the winter
wheat district are fairly satisfactory.
Our information, points to small
decrease in the contemplated broad
wheat acreage Of the northwest as
compared with last season, and a cor
responding increase in durum.
As stated last week, some areas,
particularly in Minnesota and South
Dakota, are extremely dry. The Red
River valley and the northern coun-
ties Of North Dakota and eastern
Montana report sufficient moisture
for q Satisfactory termination Of seed
and to carry the crop for short
time. Central areas generally should
have rains very soon for seed to de-
velop properly. Several localities
advise that high winds arc drying the
top soil. 1t is very apparent that the
most important factor in our crop
situation at present is the question
Of moisture, and general rains are
essential.

Science? Or What?

;. The Presbyterian denomination now has 1000
churches without pastors, according to statistics
that will be offered May by the churchs board
ut education to all the churches. The situation for
the future is really serious, according Rev Lewis
/ Is. Hills, secretary of student aid
Previous to 1920 the report states ministers were
ordained in sufficient numbers to replace the gaps
: caused by the death of aged preachers During the
last five years the situation has been becoming more
. acute.
The Presbyterian church is not alone in its need.
!. From almost every other great church comes the
same call to youth. Is this shortage Of pastors a
result of the marked trend toward science?

GazoOkumscs arc something like

thrces.
Besides their eyes arc pink and
their ears are sharper. And have
heard it said that their little toes
are made Of solid silver. But Of
course ono can't be sure as they
never take their shoes off.
There sat three of them, now, in
the crows nest in the old dead tree,
stuffing themselves with Jolly pops
and chocolate-buds and bon bons and
throwing the papers and sticks over
board, you might say.
That was the way Mister Iingaling
and the Twins found out that they
were there.
"We'n get you" shouted the. fat
little fairyman. Give back the rent
money you stole from the owl. Give
it back or we'll conc up and get

The three little gazoOkumscs looked
over the edge Of the nest, their sharp
noses sticking out like bird bills.

Mister Tingaling was getting pretty
mad about everything by THIS time,
so he shouted, Look out then. We're
coming up this very minute" And
calling to Nancy and Nick to follow
him. he started to climb up the tree
as fast as he could go.
He didn't take the podxct- book
along BECAUSE he couldn't 20 so fast
with it. And the Twins didn't take
the rent-book and pencil along be-
cause they couldn't go quite so fast,
either. All three Of those precious
things lay on the ground at the foot
of the tree.
Up and up and up went the Twins
in their magic shoes.
At last they reached the big bare
branch that held up the crows nest.
And along it they all ran to catch
the Gazookumses.
But the three noses were no longer
to be seen. And upon reaching the
nest and pcering over the edge, no
GazOokumses were to be- seen. either.
Thy had disappeared, pink eyes, Sill
yer toes and all.
"Oh, SUGAR." cried poor Mister
Tingaling, stamping his foot so hard
he almost snapped off the old dead
branch.
"Where did they go?' I'd like to
know" said Nancy.
s'Don't ask me-" said Mister Tinga-
ling. "They. must have wings AZ we'll

down, I'm sure"
Suddenly they heard someone say,

the basis Of it is that men have come

Some time ago, in a study made Of
the causes of death in a group of

age, it was found that more than
onc.half Of the deaths that occurred
in this particular group were due to
disorders of nutrition. Such = study
shows the great Importance Of nursing
the baby il possible during the first
year Of life.
1t is well worth while for the moth
er to make energetic efforts to con-
tinuc giving her baby the food which
nature intended for it to receive.
A mother should not willingly sur.
render this duty at the first oppor.
tunity offered by some slight diff
ficulty.
Mothers Health
In order properly to nurse tho
baby II is necessary that the mother
keep herself in good health. This
means that she must take sufficient
sleep and eat good food. including
plenty of milk, meat once day.

ATLANTA Ca, July 2.-When
George Virgil McLendon, jr., leaves
his home in Gordon, Ala, next
September, to enter Emory Uni
versity here, he will bring with
him the courageous initiative. of a
mother who has been his classmate
for three years in high school.
The mother, Mrs. Virgil McLen.
don, and her son, George, received
diplomas from Houston County
High School at Columbia, Ala, at
the same time. Mrs. McLendon.
under the name of Lynda Ttlley
McLendon, was vice president OF
the senior class.
During the three years they at.
tended the Houston school the
mother and son were absent only
once. This was because a storm
swept away a bridge between their
home and the school.
They were never late either,
despite the fact that there was ten
miles to travel each morning after
Mrs. McLendon prepared two
younger children for school.

Joseph Conrad is one of the few
authors of sea stories who has

The dweller on the plains may

The sailor reads of cowboy life
