(1903 p. 402; Ann. 10952; Comp. 4J74.) 35-41 An eminent clerico-journalist re marks that two words democracy and science are characteristic of the Twentieth century. He has forgotten for the moment, "jazz." Scientists have reproduced human heartbeats on a wire, but that is safer and less costly than a letter in a breach of promise court. With polished shoes and boiled shirts returning in Russia, civilization seems to be breathing its last in that coun try. Are the scientists sure it was a germ that the microscope revealed up on a germ, and not a Russian ruble? The old saying that you will always find trouble if you look for it doesn't apply to automobile breakdowns. Liberty bonds are at it again mov ing up in a way that makes you wish you hadn't spent your money for some thing else. TUESDAY, MARCH 23, 1922 LAKESIDE Frank Cody nnd son.

The; ten acres of potatoes which the Mars land Methodists propose to raise for the good of the order ought to be known and talked about wherever j congregations congregate. There are great possibilities in it 'Ihe people of Marsland, it I safe to sav, have had their shnre of the lost-war deflation. It haa doubtles been hard work this year to finance churches up that way. It is seldom ensy to finance hurche anywhere or at nny time. This chuirh will help itself this year by growing on its ten acres not less, we shall hope, than a thousand bushels of the potatoes for which western Nebraska is famous. These w ill bring, we shall for their sake hope, notwithstanding we are at the paying end of the potato trans action, not less than a thousand dol lars. A thousand dollars is a lot of money to a country church. In addition, we can predict, thero will be other profits. Most especially should there be gains on the social side of the account. The potatoes will have to be plowed. There is no reason why a plowing party should be a less happy event than were the barn raising par ties of obi in more easterly longitudes There will perhaps be bugs to fight. A church standing shoulder to shoulder fighting bug will be getting in excel lent muscle for a shoulder to shoulder onslaught on sin. And then the great social event of the year, the gathering on some crisp Septemher or October day to harvest the spuds. We sup pose the men and children will work at that while the women do the harder work of getting up a banquet to crown the day. Not intending nny invidious comparisons, we shouldn't wonder if the event should beat a card party all hollow, A summer's fun and a thou sand bushels of potatoes in the church treasury to boot; that's going some Next year, perhaps, the Marsland Methodists , and any other church which may care to take example of them, will think of interesting varia tions on the plan. With the seeping back of better times, and the ability to support the church by cash contri butions, they may decide to raise a patch of potatoes for the benefit, not of their church at home, but of potato less people somewhere else.
