q u looks a great deal like all
farmers; if you saw him coming
to town Saturday afternoon to
do the trading" you wouldn't
know he has done something no
other farmer has ever done; or.
for that matter, what no other
person in the world has ever
done. His name is A. Harry Orr.
and he is sixty-five years old.

first time Lots of laughter and good fun then to the
serious business of the evening One judge recommended
this girl another that boy Notes compared and cider
went around The winners chosen but there wasn't
a peep.
December marched in The week of the annual banquet
of the Farm Bureau the biggest social event OF the year.
New dresses, speeches. then came the breath taking
moment The winners of the Courtesy Contest for
ward and gold pieces into their hands, Then they had
to make speeches. Everybody had good time.
Billy Sprigg of Marshall, Missouri won for the boys.
Here's letter from Billy Il invested my prize money in
a SOW and she has seven pigs which weigh about
seventyfve pounds each They all look fine and going
to help educate me-" From Marguerite Fisher, Miami,
Missouri I'm saving my prize money toward my educa-
ton when finish high school, The cold weather is be-
ginning to break up know everyone is glad of that
HE contest has been successful that Mr. Orr has
written into his will enough money keep going Other
localities in the Middle West have picked up the idea and
contests for rural boys and girls are being started
all inspired by the farmer who act OF lmpoteness
and thought he would if something couldn't be done
about it.
What fine thing this Courtesy Club" idea isl And
what fine thing just plain courtesy is And how much
needed it is. In this connection think of William H.
Meadowcroft, whom l went to interview. He was
secretary Thomas Edison for twentyone years. their
desks were next to each other in Mr. Edisons huge book
filled library in Meno Park. And here he MIR. Edison
night and day you will recall Thomas A. Edisons un-
usual working hours And here people came to run him
to EARTH canks and crackpots from all over the world
And in all that time Mr. MeadowCroft told me- he had
never once seen Thomas A. Edison dscourteous to a
single SOUL
have seen other places this pleasing act of courtesy
think of the time in Beverly Hills when took wrong
turn and came abruptly to a gate. There | was and
there no longer way saw it was private, but
instead of the stern Keep Off, mo Trespassing as
one usually finds there pleasing little sign that said
This is the End of the Road Sorry 1t was so unusual
so wam personal that asked whose house it sheltered
Then was told.
The house was Pickfair. and Mary Pckford had put
the sign there.
Yesterday when this little article running through
my head took walk in Fort Tryon Park, in the city of
New York 1t is lovely spot the highest on the island OF
Manhattan it looks peacefully down on the Hudson and
the Hudson smiles up at it. Flowers from all over the
world are there picnic parties must catch their breath
And there kneedeep in flowers found this handlettered
Let no say, and say it to your shame,
All ,pas beauty here till you came
What heart-warmng thing courtesy is! Not the cour-
tesy of Raleigh spreading his mantle puddle for
queen walk on but just everyday neghborly courtesy
the courtesy that is made up of little kindly acts that
bring happiness Others and make you happy, too.

One day in 1887 he drove in to and started park
between the white parallel lines As he getting his
adjusted to the space, from another state drew in
alongside him. The stranger evidently had been in
the town before for he got out and looked around bit
puzzled He called to two boys who passing and asked
them question. The boys made fippant answer and
moseyed down the street. The man looked taken aback
then to Mr. Orr and asked him the question Mr. Orr
gave him the information he wanted the thanked
him, and went on his way.
There was livestock sale at the pavilion MIR. Orr
attended that There he the man, and he felt ashamed
of the way he had been treated by the boys When he
had made his purchases and everything attended to-
Mr. Orr got into his and started to drive home The
rudeness of the boys drove along with him. Mr. Or fell
to wondering if something could not be done to make the
boys and girls of his town courteous BY the time he
arrived home he had idea. An idea one had ever
heard before He would Courtesy Contest for rural
boys and girls He didn't know how he would do it, but
certainly there place for it: he would try.
He went to the Home Demonstration Agent and talked
it with her She had never heard of such an idea
poteness contest but willing to work with him.
1t be contest for all boys and girls in the county
between the ages of ten and eighteen 1t had unique
features. No could enter; could keep out If
you we're between the ages of and eighteen you
in the contest and that all you could do about
the matter.
The prizes go for just outstanding act of
courtesy but for whole year supply The winner couldn't
help old lady the street and get first
prize he had to be courteous little affairs and big in the
schoolroom the playground, on the street at the
movies Yes three hundred and sixty five days of it.
1--WE chosen judges And now another
unique feature the five known only to Mr.. Orr.
Then Mr. Orr announced he would give $40 to the potest
boy and $40 to the politest girl in Saline County the
idea was launched the first day of January, 1898.
Would it amount to anything? Would the boys and
girls respond? Only $40 Not much money.
There a noticeable pickup in politeness. More
poeness the sidewalks, in schooyards poiteness
the partyne telephones. began to filter from the
boys and girls Older people began to take pride in being
nice to each other. Not overdone poiteness; just or
dinary, everyday thoughtful courtesy
November came and evening five drew up before
Farmer Ors home; the judges met each other for the

CONFIDENCE. Some of us may be worrying
about the future, but not Meyer Davis, pop
ular society orchestra leader in New York.
To the parents of newly arrived daughters he
sends this message: MAY we reserve an eve
ming in 1856 or 1857 to play at the debut of
your daughter?"
ShOW-OFF H. B. Harte of the Field Mu-
scum of Natural History in Chicago tells
about the peculiar courtship of the Prince
Rudolph's bird of paradise, found most CON-
monty in New Guinea. During courtship the
male clings to the branch of tree with its
feet and swings head down, quivering its
plumage. 1t is gorgeous sight to see the sun
shining on ruffied feathers of pastel shades of
blue, mauve, lilac and maroon. We have
similar set of actions in our own world. Did
you ever see small boy standing on his head
to attract the attention of little girl?
GOING UP! The other night the Circum-
navigators Club was having dinner at the
Ford Exposition at the New York Worlds
Fair. As the members we're globe-trotters and
explorers little color was added by borrow
ing Frank Bucks 45O-pound baby elephant,
named Susie" When Susie arrived, it was

found necessary to bring her in by the second
floor ramp and then down one flight by ele-
vator 1t was ticklish situation, as this was
Susie's maiden ride She finally got in and
seemed to enjoy the experience.
During the evening, Susie was stationed in
an artificial Jungle" just outside the elevator
door. At one time her exploring trunk hap
pened to press the button of the elevator
"a self-operating one) and when the door
opened, in walked the elephant. She would not
come out until she had been given ride up
one flight and down again. 1t would have
been worth much to have heard the tales she
told the other elephants back in Frank Buck S
Jungleland that night.

REPORT. Storker Storkerson was an explor-
er's explorer He never made spectacular
headlines yet his advice was often sought by
men going into the Arctic. He never Colored
a report - in fact, he usually understated.
The classic example is his report of leading an
exploration party over some very bad ter
ritory in October, 1918 - October is usually
considered the worst possible month for
Arctic travel His report is only twenty-five
words long: I'VE started from point little
over two hundred miles from shore on October
