And she said, Let thine hand

the wonan went her way. and did

And when she had weaned him,
she took him up with her, with

brought him unto the house o.
the Lord in Shiloh: and the child

And they slew a bullock, and

A%AN EACo@NNAAI VI OA-G " LIE GEaA-
known Of American colleges not
long ago emphasized the difficulty
OF certain problems Of discipline
in connection with student life be-
cause Of the influence OF the ideas
and habits prevalent in the homes
from which these students came.
Whether, because there is laxity
on the part Of students IN certain
directions. re-enforced by laxity on
the part Of their parents, the tunda-
mental law Of the land affecting
certain matters should be changed,
may be seriously open 10 question::
but the president OF this university
was on safe enough ground in in
dicating that where there is no
proper discipline or encouragement
from the home, the problem OF
those who are seeking to educate
and guide youth IS greatly intensi-
fled. The quality Of a people and
Of a country ultimately depends
upon the quality Of its homes and
It's home life.
Better influences outside OF the
home have occasionally operated 70
produce some noble type Of man
whose energy and ambition have
enabled him to create for himself q
newer and better environment. but
1t Is doubtful whether there i one
case in ten where a man OF noble
and useful character comes out OF
q home environment that Is low
and sordid. Even where the out
ward environment OF the home
seems 10 suggest advantage or lux
ury. OF the moral atmosphere be
corrupt the influence will destroy
the foundation OF true character.
The Parents Responsibility
AL this would seem to be so true
as 10 be self-evident, yet it is mar
velous how home influences are
neglected. II is appalling TO think
OF the number OF parents who do
not take the responsibility Of par
entaEe with any seriousness. or who
start SO late. or who show them
selves 50 ineffective in the train
ing Of their children. that the
children may be said TO grow up
with no real guidance at al.
From this condition OF neglect
and ineffic.ency in the training Of
the young. it is q pleasure TO con-
template the achievements OF good
homes and good parentage in the
production OF good lives. Here in
our lesson We have the portrait OF
a godly mother-a mother IN in
stinct and purpose before a child
had actually come into her life.
seeking earnestly the fulfillment
Of her hopes. and in the time Of
fullfillment remembering TO the
letter her vows and her prayers.
Hannah. devoted 70 her young
son, Samuel, gives him none the
less TO the service Of religion as
she had vowed. She brings him,
after she had weaned him. to the

Text: I Sam. 1918, 2I-2s; 2:l9.
So Hannah rose UP after they
had eaten in Shiloh, and after
they had drunk. Now Eli the priest
sat upon o seat by a post OF the
temple OF the Lord.
And she was in bitterness OF
soul, and prayed unto the Lord,
and wept sore.
And she vowed, and said, o. Lord
Of hosts, IL thou wilt indeed look
on the affliction OF thine hand
maid, and remember me, and not
forget thine handmade, but wilt
give unto thine handmade a man
child. then I will give him unto
the Lord all the days OF his life,
and there shall no razor come
upon his head.
And 10 came to pass, as she
continued praying before the Lord
that Eli marked her mouth.
Now Hannah. she spake in her
heart; only her lips moved, but
her voice was not heard: there
fore Eli thought she had drunken.
And Eli said unto her. How Ions
wilt thou be drunken? put away
thy wine from thee.
And HanEh answered and said
No, my lord, I am a woman Of q

PUBLIC TAKING TO
BUS TRANSPORTATION
Is Becoming More Safe: New BuSseS
Being Added With I'M
prOyementS.

The Northland- Greyhound Lines are
now putting into service 80 modern
motor busses. This addition to the
ing with the general policy to main
tain fleet of motor coaches equal to
that operated in any section of the
United States.
Since the organization of the North
land Transportation Co. five years ago
and of the other units which now
constitute the Northland- Greyhound
Lines a fundamental policy has been
to provide the best equipment which
modern manufacturing methods will
create.
The new Northland-G Greyhound bus
ses vary little in general appearance
from the other vehicles which are
now in service. They possess some
advantages in greater power and flex-
Utility with less weight. The reclin-
ing seat is new development in mo-
tor bus transportation and there have
also been important improvements
in riding qualities. Insulation against
heat and cold has also added to quiet
ness of operation.
The new buses will be gradually
placed into service over the various
lines in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Hi
nois within the next 80 and 60 days.
The modern motor bus is visual evil
dence of the increased stability of mo-
tor coach transportation: Large or
CARNATIONS providing ample capital
and experience now give motor coach
transportation which is completely de-
pendable. The Northland- Greyhound
busses now operate approximately 3d.
600 bus miles each day and the rec
ords of the company show that the
Northland-G Greyhound busses operate
a distance equal to around the world
without a road failure or any incon-
venience to passengers caused by me-
chanical defect or maintenance.
Dependability in motor bus trans
poration has also added greatly to the
safety to this form of travel. 1t is be-
lieved that the safety record of the
Northland- Greyhound Lines has estab-
lished a standard for motor bus oper-
ations over - million people were
carried on the Northland system with
out a loss of life or serious injury to
IA passenger. The safety record of the
company since the first of January
has exceeded all past records. This
condition, due to a combination or
stable equipment and experienced per-
sonnet, has been an important contri-
button to the motor bus industry OF
the Northwest.

IN NORTH STAR STATE
President Of Ten Thousand Lakes
Greater Minnesota Association Spoke
Over Radio I'm National HOOk-up.

Reused to the necessity for placing
Minnesota squarely in the spotlight
of the Nation, the appeal of the Ten
| Thousand Lakes-Greater Minnesota
Association for increased financial
support in 1880 will receive a hearty
| response. according to H. c. Hotaling,
secretary of the association, who de-
| clares- that the whole state is alive
to the benefits to be derived from i'll
creased activities on the part of the
association.
Typical of newspaper comment over
ston Daily Times last week in which
ID. A. Mckenzie urges residents OF
Polk county to rally to the support of
the association.
The Ten Thousand Lakes Greater
Minnesota Association is doing mil
lion dollar job on a 1880 dollar APP
propriation,'' the editorial states.
And what is MORE" the editorial con-
tinues, the Association is showing
results running into millions. 1t is
proper and fitting that this Organiza-
ton should receive full and complete
support from Polk county.
During a period of thirteen years
we have received thousands of dollars
in income as the result of the activ-
tiles of this greatest of all Minnesota
boosters. 1t is just about time that
we pay off that Indebtedness by TAX
ing out memberships in the organiza-
ton and using our influence to Sc
cure a larger state appropriation to
finance its ever increasing activities.
practically the full burden OF at
tracing tourists, settlers and new in
dustries rests with this association
and the results its activities are acc
complishing are amazing This year,
in addition to a Jealous endeavOr TO
increase the number of tourists-by
100 900 the association will wage a
strong campaign to bring new manu-
featuring plants and. business institu-
lions, as well as new farmers into
the state. Such a campaign costs
thousands of dollars, but the results
VIII run INTO millions, the eulloiidi
concludes.

AN UNNEEDED RECIPE
FOR MOTORISTS AID

A recent highway bulletin presents
a recipe for cleaning oil and tar from
an automobile, which of course should
not be necessary if the motorist will
use precautiOn while driving over a
freshly coated strip of this type of
road. 1t may be worth clipping for
future reference.
Mix one quart lubricating oil
with one gallon gasoline. Apply
and allow about five minutes for
this solution to dissolve the BIZ
luminous material Then wash
with mild soap and water. This
must be done before oil or tar
has hardened.
Prevention, however, is better than
washing the car, says the bulletin
SCATTERING cars with bituminous road
material can be avoided if all drivers
will slow down to a moderate pace
when going over roads where treat
ment is in progress.
Bituminous treatment planned for
about 300 miles of the trunk high
ways, and retreatment of 500 miles
previously treated, will start as soon
as there is settled warm and dry
weather, possibly in the latter part
of this month The general practice
is TO apply the material to only one
side of the road and only short
stretch at time. Gravel, which has
previously been windrowed on the side
of the roadway, is then bladed over
the fresh material, giving finished
road in few hours.
Warning is given to motorists
through signs posted some distance in
advance of the work, and wherever
possible through the weekly road con-
ditiOn bulletins. 1t is a good rule to
obey these warning signs.
Besides the damage to the car,
there is the danger of skidding if
drivers go through fresh oil without
slowing down. But if they will drop

LEGION COMMANDER
PRAISES AUXILIARY

When the $4,000 Legion Auxiliary
members of 400 Minnesota units, pub
lished "a special edition of THE Min
nesota Legionnaire" recently to honor
the states Gold Star Mothers and OBJ,
serve the tenth anniversary of the
Legion Auxiliary's organization. the
message for that issue from the Lee
gions national commander, o. l.. Bo-
denhamer, said in part: The current
administration of the Department oil
Minnesota American Legion Auxiliary
is outstanding and impressive and
there can be no doubt that its record
of accomplishments is proving to be
a source of genuine inspiration to the
members of the American Legion who
are privileged to observe and enjoy
such a splendid measure of co-opera-
ton.
I'm the advancement of the national
detectives of the American Legion this
year the Auxiliary has constantly
shown a desire to lend every possible
measure of helpful assistance. In the
passage of the hospital bill last De-
cember and in the current fights for
the Universal Draft resolution and
the Omnibus Bill, the American Lee
gion Auxiliary has proved to be an
ally of tireless energy and tremen-
dOus influence.
I'm fact, in all American Legion en-
deavors, particularly in rehabilitation,
child welfare, Americanism and ma
tional defense, the American Legion
Auxiliary has theoretically and effici-
emily done its utmost to assist the Lee
gion in its efforts to attain a worthy
goal.-
The Department Of Minnesota mer-
its general and appreciative recogni-
tion for the important part its mem
bers have played. / look forward with
pleasurable anticipation to many years
of continued co-ordinated efforts as
we march together down the center
of the road toward the goal of bet
ter America"
