DONATION DAY
AT THE HOSPITAL

Thursday, May IL, will be Nation
al Hospital Day, when donations are
made to hospitals by anyone inter
ested in the institutions.
Last year Milford Emergency Hos
pital received many donations from
people in Milford and a goodly
amount from people in Frederica
Houston, Lincoln, and other nearby
towns. Many quarts of canned foods,
canned fruits, jams, jellies, MARINA
ladies', etc, helped to stock the pantry
shelves. Bed linen, towels, wash
cloths, bureau scarfs, and flower
vases and baskets were very CRATE
fully received. Last but not least,
there were money contributions.
Many people prefer to give money
to be used where it is most needed.
Let's start planning now for Om
gift to the hospital on May -. No
matter how small it may seem tc
you, the hospital is glad to receive
it, and you'll know that at least you
have done your part.

REPORT OF FARM
EGG RECORD CLUB
TCOntinued from First Page1

J
ism to which young chicks are often
subject when they are confined to
the house or small yards. Opinions
differ as to the cause of this trouble
among chicks, as some think it is
due to a deficient ration, while
others believe that it is caused by
the chicks being crowded in brooder
houses with nothing to keep them
busy.
Since this trouble usually starts
when the chicks are from two to
four weeks old, they should be
watched very carefully during this
period, and all injured chicks re-
moved and the affected parts treated
with some preparation that has a
disagreeable taste and odor. A very
satisfactory mixture for this pur-
pose may be prepared by using one
half teacup of lard, one tablespoon
full of BLACK Leaf 40," four table
spoonfuls of creolin, two tablespoon
fuls of bitter alos, and enough red
paint to turn the mixture a bright
red in color.
Keeping the brOOder house well
ventilated and dark will also help
to remedy this situation, in addition
to feed ing small quantities of finely
chopped green food five or six times
a day, and allowing the chicks plen-
ty of range.

SLEDGE HAMMER

Here is a valuable idea to ap-
ply in much of your own busi-
ness. 1t happened to a business
man and could happen to you.
A man with big sledge ham

and said, "Will it disturb you if

building and the radiators had
to be moved.)
with a sledge hammer" l
asked, wondering why he did
not bring a pipe wrench.
Sure" was the answer, and
before l had recovered from my
surprise, he tapped the elbow
joint deftly two or three times
and it broke. Pushing the pieces
with his toe, he said, "That piece
cost about 6 cents. To discon-
meet your radiators my way
takes about one minute per
radiator. Which is best?"
And with a smile he repeated
his operation on the other radia-
tor and was gone.
! wonder if a lot of us are not
pussy-footing around trying to
do things quietly with pipe
wrenches, where we ought to
use the good old sledge and get
quick results.

FARMINGTON

The Methodist Episcopal parson-
age was u center of local interest last
Friday evening. A number of folks
from Pennington and the vicinity
called on the minister and his grand
mother, bringing with them most
generous donation of groceries, farm
products, hOme-canned frlits,-yesi
and even money. AS a result of this
visit the parsonage pantry has taken
on the appearance of well-stOcked
grocery store. In spite of the fact
that the ladies out numbered the men
II to l, everyone present seemed to
have an enjoyable time. Perhaps we
can excuse the absence of the men,
on the ground that they were busy
or bashful Tor bOth). At any rate,
the ladies spent a pleasant evening
chatting together, as ladies will, and
becoming better acquainted with the
new mistress of the parsonage. AT
ter awhile the minister managed to
make a few remarks that were more
or less appropriate to the occasion.
Immediately after his speech, the
visitors took their departure.
Your pastor and his grandmother
desire to express publicly to the
folks in Pennington and the sur
rounding countryside, their sincere
appreciation for the splendid dOna-
ton which they received last Friday
evening. And in thanking those who
visited the parsonage, we would not
forget the others who were unable
to be present but who sent in such
generous contributions - nor would
we forget to thank you who with
your gift offered little prayer for
the cause of Gods kingdom in this
community. We are grateful, too,
to you who offered the prayer with
out the gift. So our gratitude goes
out to everyone, and especially to
Him who giveth us all things richly
to enjoy.

With the Legion itself loyalty
standing by the President and the
country it is hard to see how mem
bers of Congress can find an excuse
for pushing a bonus bill which would
debase our currency, if paid as one
of its sponsors demands that it shall
he by fiat money, or which would
hOpelessly unbalance the budget il
paid by the issuance and sale o.
bonds as some others insist
1t is to the unreasonable credit OF
the veterans enrolled in the Legion
that they place the good of the coun-
try before their personal advantage.

to expect from the men who risked
their lives in its defense. The Le-
gionnaires are demonstrating that
