Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

Out on Lifes ocean we are sailing to-
day,
Our hearts are happy and free;
The tempest may sweep and the bill
lows may roll,
But Jesus is sailing with me.
The night may be dark, the lightning
may flash,
And thunder roll loud Ger lifes sea,
But nothing can harm US as homeward
we glide,
For Jesus is sailing with me.
Tossed on the pillows when they were
afraid
In the storm on lake Galilee,
1t was Jesus came walking across on
the waves;
Fear not. tits your Master said He.
Jesus, our captain, pilot and guide,
Knows every step of the way,
And He will sail with us till Life's
journey ends,
We anchor in Heavens broad bay.
All safe in the harbor. no more We
will roam,
Over Life's stormy ocean and sea;
At Home in His Kingdom, with loved
ones again.
Forever with Jesus to be,

Editorial

A greatly needed improvement
that the school wants Is walk be-
tween the two school buildings.
During the past two weeks students
have had very pleasant time walk
ing in the mud and water up to the
school building, 1t is particularly
bad at this time of year when the
snow is melting and we have SO
much rain. 1t can also prove dan
gerous to the students to have to
walk in the road where the cars are
passing. Having no walk is not
only unhandy for students but for
citizens of the town. Many enter
tainments are given in the school
building and many people walk to
these. If it is a rainy night it
makes it very unpleasant for those
walking. Since a walk would bene-
fit the citizens of the town as we'll as
school children why not have one.

w. G. L. U. Seeks New Members
Largest Organization OF Women
In World

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union is the largest organization OF
women in the world. Its aim is to rid
our country of demon drink, knowing
that alcohol is a racial poison which
INDUCED in as beverage, destroys our
citizens.
our motto is For God and Home
and Every Land" Our purpose to
ducate the youth the truth about alco-
hol when used as beverage. When
the youth understands why coaches
forbid its use if they wish to become
Worthwhile athlets, they will leave it
alone.
We believe the Bible when 1T states:
mo drunkard can enter Heaven.
Woe unto the man who putteth drink
to the lips of his brother" and many
other such truths. Therefore, we are
concerned and determined to do our
part to safeguard the youth of our
land and to remove temptation from
those who are unable to resist 1T. We
know that no amount of revenue can
repay for broken bones, lost souls and
little children unable to get proper
food and clothing because the salary
has been spent for THAT which salts
feth not but on the other hand de-
strroys those who indulge in its use.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
| Union makes an intensive drive year
| ly, for additional members; we are
| now conducting that drive in Cecil
| County. This is an appeal to you,
Christian brother and sister, to unite
with us in this organization, to fight
the liquor traffic. You know In
Union There is Strength" and numbers
can do what individuals are unable to
do Every Christian man and woman;
every parent or boys and girls, should
ally themselves with our organization.
This does not mean that our organiza-
ton has lost members, except in cases
of death, for we added more than TO-
900 last year during our drive, but it
means that YOU and YOU are here and
now urged to give us your membership.
Membership consists of signing the
pledge and paying yearly dues of
S1.00. We have many lines of work
and you can find a place for your ac-
| tivities where they will tell for some
thing worth while. You ARE your
brothers keeper
The law was repealed, but the effects
of alcohol cannot be repealed, don't
overlook that fact. Every driver of
car on our highways since repeal,
reiterates that fact; the numbers of
accidents mounting higher and higher
as the days go by.
Write me your desire to join, send

Girls Industrial Arts Club

The Girls Industrial Art Club is
progressing very well. The girls
were divided into two classes; one
class to work on wood, another to
work on metal. Most of the girls
working in wood have completed
their first problem, corner shelf,
and are now working on another.
Several are working on magazine
racks, some on lamps and other
similar projects. The class work
ing in metal first made ash trays
and are now making bracelets. They
hope to finish these by the time the
athletic season begins.
This club is very practical as it
teaches the girls a few of the prin-
ciples of manual training which they
should know.

SELECTION OF SEED CORN M
PORTANT AT THIS TIME

In making plans for the coming
corn crop too much emphasis cannot
be placed ON the importance of Sc
lecting healthy, disease resistant
seed corn for planting purposes, &C
cording to F. w. Oldenburg, agrono-
mist for the University of Maryland
Extension Service. He says that a
little extra time spent in the careful
selection of seed at this time may
mean the difference between poor
and profitable crop of corn. Good
seed corn, in addition to aiding in
the production of higher yields, also
produces more vigorous seedlings,
which are better able to Withstand
unfavorable weather conditions that
may arise at planting time.
There are four important steps in
the selection of seed corn, according
to Mr.. Oldenburg,- inspection of the
termination.
For those who must obtain their
seed corn from the crib at this sea-
son of the year it is important to
select ears which are heavy for their
size, typical of the variety, and
which are free from mold or discol-
grafton. The ears should be bright
and glossy in appearance and have
butts which have broken off clean
without shreds or stringiness.
The grains should be plump, hard,
well shaped, smooth and glistening.
At least two grains from each ear
should be opened with sharp point
ed knife to ascertain the condition
of the germ. A healthy germ is
plump, creamy white, waxy in
texture and cuts firmly.
Cobs should also be inspected and
no ear Of corn having a badly dis
colored cob should be used. Cobs
showing discoloration, especially
around the pith, indicate disease.
A final step to learn how good a
selection of corn has been made is
to make termination test. II
more the 95 per cent of the seed pro-
duces vigorous sprouts the seed is
safe for planting.

During hot weather or severe
drouth. cows should be given a gallon
of bulky-las night and morning, in ad-
dition to their grain ration" He says
soaking it increases its succulence and
advises the adding of l gallon of water
to each gallon of bulky-las.
"In looking forward to the pasture
SON." Arends says, "Dairymen
should keep in mind that pasture is
either grass plus balanced grain feed
or grass plus cow flesh. It's far
cheaper and safer to give cows grain
ration on grass right from the start
than try to make up for the mistake
later on when the rows become run
down in condition"

MARYLAND SOCIETY TO CELE.
BRATE MARYLAND DAY

Marylanders are oud of their
State, and they are always ready to
celebrate Maryland Day., the 25th
of March, which was the date in 1884
when the first colonists under Leon
ard Calvert, the first governor of the
Province of Maryland, landed on st.
Clements Island in the Potomac
River. Two days later they sailed
back down the Potomac to the mouth
of the St. Mary's River, and up the
latter about six miles, and there es-
tablished the first settlement which
was called st. Mary's City. The To-
cation of this settlement, which was
naturally a very beautiful one, was
purchased from the Indians by Coy
ernor Calvert for few trinkets and
garden tools. The Province OF Mary
and was granted to Cecil Calvert,
Second Baron of Baltimore, by Char
les 1, King of England, by charter
dated June 20, 1882. The charter,
said to have been written by George
Calvert, First Baron of Baltimore,
and which is a most interesting and
remarkable legal document, was to
nave been granted to the First
Baron, but unfortunately he died on
April is, 1882, after the charter had
been submitted for the signature of
the King and the afixing of the Great
Seal of England, but before it was
actually signed and sealed.
The Maryland Society of Washing
ton will celebrate Maryland Day.

NEVER OVERFLOW
Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland

When thou passeth through the
waters
They will never overflow.
Gods presence will be with thee,
Everywhere He leads for you to go.
When thou passeth through the
waters,
And the angry pillows roll,
You are safe forever In God S
keeping,
They will never overflow.
When thou passeth through the
waters,
And the night is dark and long,
With the dawning of the morning,
You will sing the victory song.
When thou passeth through the

Faith will see the light ahead.
Gods grace will be sufficient,
Safely through you will be led.

Principal Outlines Code OF conduc,

Principal Outlines Code OF Conduct
During Wednesday assembly Mr..
Zimmerman outlined code of con-
duct in which he told habits which
help the school run smoothly. He
mentioned our relations with each
other before school, during the noon
hour, between classes, etc. The
principal idea is to develop response
bility in pupils and to teach them to
be considerable of other people and of
property belonging to others. Unless
a boy or girl learns these things he
or she cannot be successful at school
or elsewhere. Mr.. Zimmerman also
made it clear that those who violate
their privileges should have them
taken away. This is not to "get
back" at the pupil, but to protect
those who respect the rights of
others.
The following Wednesday teach
ers' meeting was held to check re-
ports. At this time the code Of con-
duct was discussed, and the rules
approved by the teachers.
The Civic club is working on these
rules, and will organize them into
some form to be presented next
year.

GRASS IS NATURES
MILK-MAKING GIFT

"Milk-maKing pasture is natures
gift to the dairymen," says W. r.
Arends, well-known Purina dairy au
thority. Dairymen are always anxious
to see spring grass, for they know they
will see its effect in fuller milk pail.
''Freuuently, though, pasture gets
dairymen into trouble" Arends points
out. "They expect too much of 1t. As
a matter of fact they depend on grass
to do the entire job of feeding cows.
For while, they get plenty of milk.
but as the pasture season goes on the
cows gradually become run down in
condition. The result is that when fall
rolls around the cows are not only
down in flesh but off in milk prOduc-
ton. 1t usually requires double the
amount of grain to get them built up
again.
''There is, however, a right way to
take advantage of Natures gift. First
of all, cows should not be turned out
on the young grass too soon. Give
the grass a fair chance to get well
rooted to withstand the trampling Of
the cows and furnish an abundance
of nutrients for a longer stretch of
time.
Keep UP Body Weight
Another thing" says Arends. with
his cows on pasture the wise dairy
man feeds just enough of a balanced
grain ration to keep up the body
weight of his cows. Usually the
amount is only one-half the amount
fed in winter with dry roughage.
Handling cows this way keeps them
up in body weight and assures good
milk production in the fall when prices
are highest"
In talking about actual tests of feed
ing cows on pastures, Arends cites re-
search work done at the Purina Ex-
detrimental Farm in Gray Summit, Mo.
He tells of cows eating 40 to so lbs. OF
green grass daily, but getting no grain.
losing 200 lbs. of body weight in 3
months time. On the other hand,
cows given a balanced grain ration to
supplement TIL cir pasture actually
gained in weight and held up in milk
production"
While on pasture, light breeds such
as the Jersey and Guernsey, should
get ! Id. of grain for each 6 lbs. OF
milk and the larger breeds should get
a pound of the grain ration for each
I to 8 lbs. of milk, according to Arends.
He points out that as the pasture gets
shorter the grain ration should be
stepped up.
