OUR NATIONS BIRTHDAY
July 4, 1916

Our second president. John Ad-
ans. poured out his very soul in
support Of the Declaration of indie
pendence before the document was
signed. We quote herewith:
But whatever may be our fate,
be assured that this Declaration
will stand. It may cost treasure. and
it may cost blood. but it will stand,
and it will richly compensate for
both. Through the thick gloom Of
the present, I see the brightness of
the future. as the sun in heaven.
We shall make this a glorious. an
immortal day. When we are in our
graves, our children will honor it.
THEY will celebrate 1t with thanks
giving. with festivity. with bontires
and Examinations. On its annual re-
turn, they will shed tears. copious,
gushing tears, not of subsection and
slavery. not of agony and distress.
but of exultation. of gratitude and
Joy. Sir, before God. l believe the
hour is come. My judgment approx
es this measure, and my whole
heart is in It. All that l have, and
all that 7 am, and all that l hope,
in this life, I am now ready here
to stake upon it. And l leave off as
l began, that, live or die, survive or
perish. I am for the Declaration. 1t
is my living sentiment. and by the
blessing Of God it shall be my dy-
ing sentiment.
Independence now. and Indepen-
dence forever!"
There is not real American who
does not thrill at the story of how
colonial leaders affixed their sigma
lures to the Declaration of indie
pendence-the document which gave
birth to our mighty nation. Let us
stimulate a greater spirit of patri-
atism, and thereby deal telling
blows to those in America who seek
10 undermine our constitution.

Mary had been accustomed to go
alone in the dark to her little bed

When the new timidity appeared

WITHOUT FAREWELL

Not knowing It's the hour.
without the tale they longed to tell.
Without one fading fiow'r.
And some will grieve, who parted so.
Some secret in the breast
They never told and never know
How greatly they are blessed.
They never met for some last time,
The last hour was as sweet
AS all the hours hope makes sublime
When mOrtals part to meet.
There is no memory of tears,
No shadow on the past;
The lovely record of the years
Is lovely to the last
They parted smiling. with the smile
That those who part must wear
For others in the afterwhile.
However much they care.
No hour of anguish memory knows.
No sad. funeral knell-
Oh. heaven has been kind to those
Who part without farewell.

WORMS IN POULTRY
Nv H. d. Munroe

Next fall we will have the usual
complaints about worm infested pull
let's. Most poultry raisers will want
a remedy to take care of all the bad
effects of worm infestation. 1t is a
large order. In all animals and
birds the damage done by worms is
done during the growing period. It
is possible to eliminate most of the
worms in a pullet when she is eight
or ten months of age but Il is i'm
possible to correct the damage done
by these worms.
Prevention of worm infestations
by clean range and keeping the
young stock away from the hens is
very important. In most flocks it
will be impossible to completely
prevent infestation. On farms where
poultry has been raised for years
or where there is a known worm
infestation the pullet fnock should
be given at least two worm treat
ments during the growing period.
Worming a pullet flock at ten
weeks and again at the time they
start to lay is good poultry manage
ment under average conditions.
With the intensified conditions in
poultry raising now practiced 1t is
advisable to worm every flock OF
pullets raised this year at least
once before they are put in winter
quarters.

IT'S ONLY YOU, MOTHER OF NINE
By Carl N. Rrostrom


Oh. mother of mine, it's only you,
That knows the word called care;
Oh! mother of mine, It's only you
l bring heartaches, home to bear.
Up through this world you've brought
me.
Teaching me wrong from right;
'Tis only you who brings my name
Into Gods prayers at night.
'Tis only you. oh mother of mine!
Who comforts me when things go
wrong;
'Tis only you. oh mother of mine!
Who cheers me with song.
And when all friends forsake me.
The skies are gray above,
It's you who forever shows me
A real unselfish love.
Oh! mother of mine, thousand years
'Twould take to half repay
The joy and happiness you've taught
me,
Bit by bit through every day.
Forgive me for the wrongs I've done,
And the heartaches that I've
brought;
For It's only now that I realize
Yes, realize all you've taught.

REPUBLICANS TO
MAKE new DEAL.
TSSUEOF ELECTION .
tCOafinued from First Paee1

the regulatory schemes of the gov
eminent bureaucracy"
Referring briefly to the Presi-
dents comparison between the ad-
ministration program and the re-
modelling of the executive Offices
along present architectural lines,
Fletcher replied:
But IL is not the outside of a
public building which controls the
thoughts and theories of those who
work behind beautiful facades. A
famous mosque in Constantinople
was once a Christian Church"
Fletcher said the fall elections
would bring to a close zone of the
most important political campaigns
waged in this country since the
foundation of our government"
"As Lincoln said at Gettysburg in
the midst of the Civil War" he add
ed. I'VE are engaged in a contest to
see whether Democratic govern
ment can survive here"
Recalling that the Independence
resolution was adopted in Philadel-
phia. July 2. 1875. the Republican
chairman said:
The New Deal is government
from above. II is based on the pro-
position that the people cannot man
age their own affairs and that gov
eminent bureaucracy must manage
for them. That proposition, after
centuries of trial in Europe and its
attempted transference to America,
was repudiated and overthrown 1853
years ago today"
Fletcher conceded the Republi-
cans we're entering the campaign
under a handicap. Pointing to the
broad power and the immense funds
available to the administration. he
said I'VE can appreciate what they
are doing to sell the New Deal to
the American people or impose it
upon them"
ANY government which gets into
its hands the accumulated savings
of its. people," he added. can by
their expenditure create the Illusion
of prosperity. and provide temper
airy jobs for the unemployed. But
this is entirely artificial. II does
not and cannot form solid foun-
dation on which to rebuild our eco
nomic structure"
Indicating some of the points
which the Republicans will stress
in the campaign, Fletcher cited the
failure to settle the war debt prob
lem, what he called "a miserable
fiasco" at the London economic
conference, and the absence of in
creased trade with Russia despite
the recognition of the Soviet gov
eminent.
THE New Deal is now generously
heaping invective upon everything
which went before the advent of
the new dispensation on March 4.
1888" he said. land we are all told.
now. that the principles of govern
ment. which made our great prog
ress and prosperity possible. are no
longer worth while.
I'VE believe that those principles
are worth while and that the in
justices aad the inequalities which
have developed can be cured and
corrected without twisting and de-
forming our American institutions.
We do not want to see these alpha
betical bureaucratic agencies be-
come permanent fixtures in our ma
tional political life.
"If the next Congress is not more
self-respecting and conscious of its
duties than the last they may cas-
lily become permanent. The Repub-
lican party accepts the issue of the
New Deal. It will seek to return to
Congress enough members to OPP
pose effectively these innovations.
We believe we will be successful in
this"

The lightweight championship will
not be involved, as Petrolle will be per-
mitted to weigh in at 142 pounds.
Ross, in training, appears to have
recovered from the effects Of an in
jury which twice forced postponement
Of the contest. He appears just as
good as ever in the gymnasium and
seems to have regained the form which
enabled him to beat Tony Canzonen
for the 135-pound title.
Against any other opponent Ross
would have the edge. but when pitted
against an old campaigner like Petrolle
it is a different matter. Billy has

Two More Accept Terms

1.-TWO more Nationals are in line for

contracts tucked away in the
safe at the clubs Georgia avenue head
quarters. The latest to accept terms
are the young pitchers, Ray Prim and
Ed Linke.
Little more than a week ago Prim
became the first to register a complaint
about the salary offered. One peep at
the figures on his paper and he fired
1t back to Griffith But a soothing let
ter forwarded by Griffith to the left
handler was all needed to make every
thing right And Griffith declares the
figures in the contract were not

now are signed which looks respect
able figure when it is considered that

Crossed by Indians.

r Asst Spring, when the American
League barriers to intra League
exhibition competition we're let
down, Griffith scheduled four games
With the Indians who train at New
Orleans about 80 miles west of Biloxi.
Unfortunately for the Golfers of both
clubs, rain held the series to two
:ussles
Griffith decided to take the Ma
tionalS back to Biloxi this year mainly
because he believed a more extensive
exhibition slate with the Cleveland club
could be arranged. Such competition
would be just the thing to put his club
on edge for shot at another Ameri-
ran League championship. he felt
BUT the lndlan business management
crossed him by listing a long series
with the world champion Giants which
left only a few scattered minor league
clubs to provide much needed practice
for the Nationals. And Griffith says
non" of the minor outfits that are to
train in the vicinity of Biloxi other
than the New Orleans club seems eager
to lend a helping hand
Grlfhth still has hopes of arrang-
ing few tits between Nationals and
indians, but not strong hope. The
Few ne may manage to book with the
Cleveland crew would leave his club
far short Of the number of tussles with
big leaguers really needed before stakes
are pulled up at camp.
It's no wonder the boss of the WASH
hgtOn club has ideas Of looking else
where for a training site Too bad for
Biloxi, but Griffith feels his Nationals
must have their big league foes at
camp.
