Farm Bureau Notes WHY BOYS LEAVE THE FARM "Why did you leavo the farm my lad? Why did you bolt and leave your dad? Why did you beat it off to town And turn your poor old father down ? Thinkers of platform, pulpit and press Arc wollowing in deep distress They seek tb know the hidden cause Why farmer boys desert their pas." "Well, stranger, since you've been so frank, I'll roll aside the hazy bank; I left my clad, his farm, his plow, Because my calf became his cow. I left my dad to sow and reap Because my lamb became his sheep, I dropped the hoe and stuck the fork Because my pig became his pork. The gaule:i tiuck that I made grow Was his to sell, hut mine to hoe." "It's not the smoke in tho atmosphere, Nor the taste for life that bi ought me here, Please tell tho platform, pulpit and prens No fear of toil nor love of dress Is driving off the farmer's lads; It's just tho methods of their dads." "Now dads had better change their ways, They'll surely find it always pays To give the boys a little share It really isn't more than fair. They'll stay at home and be content And dad will say, 'twas coin well spent For after all don't BOYS count more Than all the MONEY one can store?" HENRY R.

Tracy Qelseli Inger, rfd S, Keaeeaw, Nebr. A Letter From Verne Bailey Cpl. V. D. Bailey, Adv. Orel. Depot No. 1, A. P. O. 812, A. E .F. May 20, 1919 Dear Sisters and All: I wrote Father about my trip to Paris. To-day I am going to write you about my leave to Nice on the Mediterranean. Within thirty miles along the coast we have Cames, Nice, Monte Carlo and Mcnton. All of these places are great rcsoits. We left Is-sur-Tillo in the evening by way of Lyon. In the early morn ing Marseilles was reached. From here on, the ride is along the sea, with the Alps Mountains on the othei side; sometimes coming clear up to the water. The most wonderful ride. Put our Rocky mountains right at the coast, and you have a good idea of conditions there. At Cannes tho first city in the leave area is found many winter homes of English people. Near hero is Grasso where most perfumes of high quality are made. Nice is the largest city of this re gion. At the expense of Uncle Sam I was housed and fed in a fine hotel of Nice. A balcony at the window where one could stand ami look out at the sea, Blue sea, beautiful parks, high mountains, palm trees, all kinds of flowers. A flower market where one can buy an arm full of roses for twenty-five cents. The flower market is worth a trip down there. Many Americans in civilian clothes, which is a sight for us. Next comes Monte Carlo. Of course you know Monte Carlo is no ted for its gambling Casino. Wo were allowed to go through this place but not during gambling hours. The gambling halls arc rich, the building itself being a marvel. Besides public and private gambling halls it contains a great room used for entertainments, and bath room that you never saw equaled for fine furnishings. Across the street is a Park containing one speciman of every tree that will grow in this climate. You can sit at the front of the park and study the faces as they leave the Casino after play. Women arc poorer losers than men, often coming out showing only too plainly their feelings. On another corner is the hotel said to have the most expensive service in the world. The Prince of Monoco (a province of only .'JG1 acres) is in direct charge of thi. He gives the world tho gambling hall at Monte Carlo, but at the same time he has given it the greatest museum and acqunrium of deep sea specimens. I am sure tho live fiph of every description make a study that all of you would thorough ly enjoy for hours at a time. From here, a land of rain, snow and mud, in a twenty hour ridel was in another world. One, that with its sunshine and flowers, makes mc un derstand what is meant by "Sunny France." Even the women seem to live up to the high standard in looks. For there arc many beautiful women. Unless something happens to change our plans I will be on tho way home in a few days. This no doubt will be my last letter from Franco, but will drop cards wherever I get a chance on tho way to the States. I was over in Italy one day; just far enough to say I had been there. Last night about four a. in. one of the magazines containing the highest explosives b'ew up. The Ordnance buildings with the exception of sleep ing quarters arc tho nearest. The fiamo buildings including our offices arc a total wreck and great steel girders in buildings of iron were bent to a bow shape. Had it happened in working hours there would have been a great loss of life. Largo trees were broken off. Wo arc destroying re maining material of this nature to day. I think if you have written recently I will receive the letters before leav ing this country. With love to all of you, and tho folks at Cowles. From you brother, VERNE For many years those in charge of the management of tho State Fair full well realized tho inadequate ac commodations for the women and children of tho state. But we aro pleased to say that for this year this condition will be entirely overcome by the erection of a building devoted en tirely to tho comfort of tho ladies. In this building will bo housed the "Better Babies'" department, with all the up-to-date arrangements for tho examining of the babies, in a glass enclosed room back of which will be an auditorium and gallery where those who desire to watch this interesting work may do so. Largo rest rooms will bo provided as well as a day nursery, and if time permits, it is the intention to hnve connected with this building an up-to-date play ground for the "Kiddies," where will bo found all the modern playground apparatus. ( Dally Thouoht. Nothing Is Impossible to Jndustrjy Pcrlander of i;is!fc iE. Chautauqua Dates July 25-31 Local Manager Attorney Howard S. Foe, announces the Chuutauqua dates, for this season as being July 25th to 31st inclusive, and furni.Oics us with the following information concerning this year's session: The Chautauqua program this year, as in the past will be built for a pur pose and as the keynote of the pro gram lust .vear was the "Winning ol tho War" this year it will be "Recon struction." There will be plenty of music and plenty of entertainment but this thought will undeilie the program. Probably the most unusual feature on the prpgmm this year will be Lieut. A. D. "Andy" Nielson, "The Flying Parson" in his lecture, "Prob lems of the Air." Lieut. Nielsen pre vious to the war was a Methodist minister who says that just becauj-c ho happened to be a minister he did not sea any real reason why he should let some one else do all the fighting so ho enlisted in the nviation branch of tho sen-ice. Ho proved to be an apt pupil and was soon placed in tho instruction division and spent almost one year in that department. He will make the circuit in his plane and if the weather conditions arc favorable will probably make an ex hibition flight just before his lecture on the program. His machine will then be placed on exhibition at the tent where it may be examined at the clo:c of the lecture. Among the other lecture on tho program will be Dr. Lyman Powell, former president of the llobart Col lege, and one of the bet known writers and educators of the cast. He was the first man chosen by the gov ernment to go abroad and study the effects of the war on education. Dr. D. D. Vaughn, a man who has seen life from all angles will be another interesting character. Solely by his own efforts he ros-c from a newsboy on the streets of Chicago to a min ister, occupying the pulpit of one of the most aristocratic and influential churches of his denomination in Chi cago., Ho is a clear thinker, eloquent speaker and has been constantly in demand for some years. Dr. Jas. T. Nichols, world traveler will likewise appear. When .Dr. Nichols approaches any problem he views it very much from the same angle as a small boy a watch. He has to gel on the inside and sec how it is made. Consequently, when the United States entered tho war, not withstanding the fact that ho had visited Europe many times, he im mediately secured passpoits and dis regarding the submarine menace made a trip to Europe. Not satis fied with this, ho made a second trip in tho spring of 1918. Then when the armistice was declared, lie wanted to get a close-up view of the after war conditions and made the third trip since we entered the war, and just iccently returned home. On the last trip he had the good fortune of at tending the Peace Conference and hearing President Wilson, Premier CIcmcnceau Lloyd George and many others of like note speak. There will be several other speakers of prom inence on the program besides a head line politician yet to be added but space will not permit us to mention them at this time. The musical program will be head ed by Ewlngs Overseas Military Band,, a band of war veterans, not from any one regiment but chosen for their musical ability from all branches of the overseas service. The Amphion Four, a fiist class male quartet head ed by R. H. Richards, Welsh tenor, tho Liberty Bells, a singing orches tra composed of seven vivacious American young ladies, Mathisens Concert party headed by Christian Mathisens, Norwegian tenor, and Ig natius Tello, Brazillian violinist and the Royal Welsh Lady Singers, Madam Hughes Thomas, one of the foremost musicians of Wales leader and conductor. The purely entertainment numbers will include The Henrys, Magicians with a program chuck full of tho lat est in magic and mytsery, and just for variety, chalk talk, sand pictures and tho like. Then there will bo Chas. R. Taggart, better known as the Old County Fiddler, or The Man from Vermont. Mr. Taggart is a genuine Vcrmontcr and brings his fiddle with him and plays as he sings and talks as he plays. Mr. Taggart is a well known Victor artist, having made a number of records. Tho above is only a partial list of the attractions offered. The program booklet showing the complete pro gram with descriptive literature will be out soon. Delivers Impressive Sermon "The Loid Opened His Eyes that He Might See" was the text selected by Rev. Ihunmel for the Baccalaur eate sermon at the Methodist church Sunday evening. The thought to be derived from this text was that the Class of 1919, just entering onto tho more serious paths of life, must open their minds and see the many oppor tunities which life presents to them Never was there more opportunities offered to the educated and intellec tual young man or young woman than is within the reach of our rising gen eration. Many of our young people do not grasp the opportunity to se cure a good education, not realizing, until it is too late, what a good edu cation means to them. Hard, honest toil is sometimes necessary to secure the s-amc, but most of our great men of today came from the toiler's class. He ciied, for example, his own career,, having woiked his way thru school and college, theicby appreciating all tho more his education after he had received it. He advircd them that while in the pursuit of learning not to forget to devote some of their time to the study of the bible that is the foundation of all law and know ledge. His closing remaiks wore that tho members of the class must strive to fulfill tho class motto: Pep, Pur pose and Perseverance. The church was beautifully decora ted for the occasion and the unusually large class made a very impressive appearance. It is rumored that F. L. Browne has leased the Rivcrton Review and taken possession of the same the first of the week.

South Bends are backed by the maker and dealer. They're sold to you on guarantee of "Satisfaction or Your Money Back" Realizing that tastes differ in the selection of ranges as well as in dry goods, wearing apparel, etc., we have in addition to our South Bends another Range. Knowing that we must secure a range that would satisfy we entered upon the task of looking into the qualities of the many other ranges on the market and after months of careful inveftigation have decided to accept the Copper-Clad. They are now on our floor ready for your inspection. COME IN. G. W.
