Stories: Much Ccm The Miller Cereal Mills, which i3 purchasing much corn through their representative here, Simon Rehmeier, have completely filled one large crib, containing more than 25,000 bushels, and now have workmen constructing another crib of like dimensions, that they expect to fill later. AH are Working Now The people of Alvo who are need ing and desiring work are all at work nor: as a result of the campaign be ing conducted by the government to provide employment through the use of CWA funds. A considerable force of men, under the able direction of J. M. Armstrong, has been busily en gaged in making the town cf Alvo a better place in which to live, and are doing a fine job of it. As a result of this employment program, work men will be able to earn sufficient ;noney to meet their living expenses and none should be the objects of charity. The average man is anxious and willing to work, as proven by the manner in which they are tackling the jobs assigned to them. Now and then, there is ore who thinks the world owes him a living. All such minded persons should be weeded out and employment given to those who cro willing to do a day's work for the money allotted them. The rate of pay, of 40 cents per hour, is as much or more than common labor ha3 earn ed, even in prosperous times, but of course the limited number of hours cut3 down the weekly pay to where it is only about enough to take care of livirg expenses, thus keeping all the rnoney in circulation. This also pro vides work for more people than if a few were permitted to work longer hour3 and hold others out of a job. DE M0TTE LAYING OUT A LAEGE DISTHLEBY Frank B.

Thi3 year, the event v as held at the home of Mrs. R. B. Hayes. Mrs. Harry White, the childrens leader, was in charge of the program. . In the early part of the afternoon, the members had a short business session. The lesson for the day told oi health conditions in several foreign countries, where the Christian mis sionaries are slowly leading the peo ple to a cleaner, more wholesome life. The work, of course, is slow, because of the hundreds of thousands to be reached by perhaps two or three in dividuals. Mrs. Davoe gave the lesson in a very pleasing way. The program following was a very interesting pageant, showing how the W. F. M. S. with the help of her children, and thru her teaching of them, aid3 other little ones in less fortunate lands. It is a wonderful lesson for our boys and girls to learn. Very few in our country ever have such hard lives as the little Indian girl3 or small Chinese. Mrs. W. G.
