Home Town of "Shepherd of the Hills
Bought by Missouri Business Woman

WHEN Harold Bell Wright wove
" a romance of the Ozarks
around the peaceful village of
CARRIER, Mo-, he provided the
means for a true romance" as
picturesque as the one which in
THE Shepherd of the Hills"
stirred thousands.
For CARRIER, home of Uncle
Matt" and Aunt Mollie," famous
characters of '"The Shepherd of
the Hills" has become the prop
erty of Mrs. Ada B. Clodfelter, a
Springfield, Mo-, business woman,
who purchased the village "hook,
line and sinker" with the inten-
ton of making it a resort for low
ers of Wright's novel.
Population, Fifty
In addition to owning the gen.
erai store, the postofice, five
homes, a railroad depot and a can

try for its so population, Mrs.
Clodfelter Is postmistress and gen.
eral manager of everything that
goes on in town." She became
interested in the little, tucked
away Ozarkian village because it
was the home of Uncle Matt"
and Aunt Mollie," whose real
names were Mr.. and Mrs. j. X.
Ross. Their cabin still is a pic
turesque landmark in CARRIER.
Uncle Matt" was for years the
postmaster at CARRIER and owned
the general store-the only one in
town. His other duties, as read
ers OF Wright's novel know, con-
sisted OF being chief advisor to all
the Inhabitants of the countryside
who were in trouble.

branch railroad into the town and

A continuance of this energetic
program for a few more years
will give Montana one of the best
highway systems in the Union.
The people of the state recogniz-
ed several years ago that smooth
and well kept surfaces on all the
main highways would attract
thousands of auto tourists to the
National parks. Alberta is in a
position in regard to
mountain scenery and national
parks. 1t will profit similarly

TRIBUTE TO COUNTRY PRESS

TRIBUTE TO COUNTRY PRESS
THE smaller newspapers of the
country are the most important
newspapers. and incidentally, in
proportion to their circulation,
their advertising results are the
biggest, and their advertising
rates are the smallest in the
country. They are read through
from end to end. Every copy of
circulation means an entire family,
not a family that lives in one room
with a can opener, but a family
that owns it's own house and land
around it, at least ninety times
out of a hundred; a family that
buys everything from the roof on
the house to the cement on the
cellar floor; from the hat on
mothers head to the shoes on the
boys feet. The service that their
publishers render to the public is,
in my opinion, the most important
service rendered by any class of
citizens in the United States. The
country editors are distributors
Of information; they reach the
minds of the boys that leave the
farms, and they are the nations
mental police force" says Arthur
Brisbane.
After half a century in the pub
location of newspapers, daily and
weekly, the writer can indorse the
opinion Of Arthur Brisbane that
the country paper is read from
end to end, and the advertise
ments are of special interest.
Where a hundred read all that is
in the home weekly, only one in
that hundred peruses all that is in
the big city daily paper that comes
to them. Large foreign advertis-
ers are also becoming cognizant of
the fact that space in country
weekly and smaller daily papers
is of real value to them; that they
can gain more at less cost, at the
same time securing as much COM
bined circulation with a certainty
that their advertisements will be
read by all.-Woodburn, Ore.

MONTANA AND GOOD ROADS

(From The Calgary Alberton)
The neighboring state of Mon
tana embarked on a vigorous good
roads policy a few years age and
it has found it a paying one Last
year the Montana Automobile as
ISOLATION reported that $4,000
cars from other states and Cana
da had toured the state, and an in
crease of 25 per cent over this
total is predicted for 1928. More
over the improvement in the
roads promoted local traffic and
exercised a stimulating effect on
domestic trade.
The State Highway commission
which is in charge of highway
construction and maintenance,
built 2S7 miles Of new roads in
1927, and so far this year con
tracts have been let for an equal
mileage. The program for the
current season calls for an expen-
Iiture of over s9,500,000. This

The Troubles That Never Come

The Troubles That Never Come
have seen a lot of trouble in my day,
It's enough to make a person old and gray,
But, I've noticed from the first
That the troubles that are worst
Are the things that never happen anyway.
When think of all the money that is lost.
What a lot of care and sorrow life has cost,
When think of all the grief
remember with relief
That it's mostly been a bridge I've never crossed.
So you think you've lots of trouble, little by.
That from the world some ones picked all the ioy,
There is one thing that you'll find
If to reason you're inclined
It's the pains that never come that most annoy
When it seems that all life's chances you have missed,
You've encountered every drawback on the list.
You should just remember then
You're as lucky as most men,
You've been worried over things that don't exist.

She began by pulling all the old
nails out of the wall. Then she tore
off loose paper and pasted strips of
cheesecloth over some of the cracks in
the wall to keep the paper from break
ing. One of the most unpleasant Jobs
was to clean some old paint from
around the edge of the floor with I've.
With the extension agents help she
selected a cream paper for the walls
and a white ceiling, with a three-inch

for the floor, mahogany-colO for the

Ruth did all the papering and paint
ing herself, and also papered some

money to pay for the materials-S5.5 so
by making and selling two braided
rugs and picking berries. This
money enabled her to buy cretunne
for the window box, glass handles for
the dresser, candles and candIesticks,
curtain rods and a peanut can to make
into waste basket, besides the paint
and wall paper. Ruth says that after
the papering was done she moved all

children, but it is one of the trag-
edieS of life that many well-tO-dO,
even wealthy homes, contain sickly,
badly fed children, whose care is
often left to unintelligent servants
who do not care in the least about
the child'S welfare or development.
The giving of sweets TO a child TO
keep him quiet is common practice.
Sweets will often make child fat.
but all fat is not healthy.
1t is not a tremendously expensive
proceeding to feed a child properly
and scientifically; it does not cost
money, but it does cost time for
thought and careful buying and pre-
pairing of simple wholesome foods
that a child needs for growth and
health. The ordinary amount spent
for food will not be increased by in
telligent buying.
Those who are able to take their
children to the greatest child special
list in the country today will be adj
vised as follows as to the kind of a
diet:
Give him milk, the best grade you
can affo: d and at least one whole
quart each day. When the child re-
fuses milk, give it to him in cream
soups, sauce. on vegetables, custards,
junkets and in cottage cheese and
drinks, such as cocoa. Use diplomacy
and finesse, but get him to swallow it
in some way.
Meat and eggs are TO be served sew
eral times a week. Milk supplies all
the protein needed for the child with
Il occasional meal of eggs and meat.
The meats TO serve for child are
well-cooked beef, chicken, lamb, NUT
ton. Fish and soft cooked eggs are
also good.
Such desserts as custards, sponge
cake, bread buildings, figs, dates, and
fruits are the best of desserts for
the growing child.
