isn’t as spry as any youth of twenty
Take, for instance, Colonel
Jack Hale, who, at the age of 74, says
he will walk from his home in Ada,
Oklahoma, to the Confederate reunion
in Atlanta, a distance of nearly 500
miles.
Did you read the children’s col¬
umn in our paper last week? If
there is any demand for it we can
make this feature permanent. We
would rather work for one child than
for a hundred grown-ups. But there
are 50-year-old children who could
read thisstoiy about the birds to
helpful advantage.
We are glad that the people of
Hamilton had such a pleasant occa¬
sion yesterday afternoon. We had
the pleasure of being in a Saturday
evening club recently and wish that
the people here would meet at least
once a mouth for two or three hours
socially. It would help the peopleen

Speech of Hon. L. C.
Dyer, of Missouri,
In the House of Representatives,
Monday, July 21, 1919.
Congressional Record.
[The House.. . had under consideration
the bill to prohibit Intoxicating beverages,
and to regulate the manufacture, produc¬
tion, use, and sale of high-proof spirits for
other than beverage purposes, and to in¬
sure an ample supply of alcohol and pro¬
mote its use in scientific research and in
the development, of fuel, dye, and other
lawful industries.]
Mr. DYER. Mr. Chairman, I
desire to spenk in favor of the reten¬
tion of this section. It is very impor¬
tant if we enact a law to enact one
that will ho effective. We are going
to have our greatest dufHeulty when
national prohibition becomes a law to
prevent the commission of offenses un¬
der it. One of these crimes that we
want to stop, if we are truly ami siu.
eerely in favor of making it effective,
is bootlegging.
Mr. RAKER, Will the gentleman
yield?
Mr. DYER. Oo; I will not. This
section has for its purpose, and itsjonly
purpose, the punishment of thos who
violate the law in selling and manu¬
facturing intoxicating liquors. That
is bootleggining: that is what is going
on uow in many of the soealled pro¬
hibition dry Statos. We do not want
that in the States now which are in
favor of liberalizing with reference to
intoxicating driuks.
We in our State nnd in our
city are going out of the wet business
in good faith. [Applause.] We
piopose to see that the law is
not violated in our State and in our
city as it has been all th ro’ the dry
States for years. It is not light,
drinks, it is not beer, it is not wine
that is doing the harm; the harm in
dry States is the manufacture nud re¬
tail of moonshine and the like and
selling it illegally. Those engaged
in it deserve to be punished. If peo¬
ple want prohibition as strongly as
claimed, let us have it iu good faith
and in spirit and in letter.
Personally 1 do not believe
they want prohibition, but we have
voted for it in legal manner. Under
the Constitution we are to have pro¬
hibition, and whether right ot wrong,
Mr. Chairman, it is the law ot the
land, and we intend if we can in this
Congress and in this country to see
that laws arc enacted that will pre
vent its violation.
Now in the Dodo Class.
Of the beasts familiar to us in our
youth two, at least, have become ex¬
tinct. One was the “consecrated cross¬

Sunday school; the other that crea¬

ance, the “equator,” or “menagerie lion

“Yes, slit* has," chimed In Nick, “and

“Nancy, she is the lady,” suid Nick,

“Well,” said Nancy, "do you remem¬

“Yes," said Daddy, “and I’ve another

"Oh, let's hear about the other story
first,” said Nancy.
“No, you were to speak first,” said
Daddy.
“Please, the story," said Nancy.
“Yes, please the story," said Niek.
“Well, two against one, so I’ll tell
It," said Daddy. “It’s a very short

“The other day Mrs. Heron was talk¬

“‘All,’ Mrs. Heron was saying. ‘It
does seem too bad that Just when our
little ones are born, Just then, they
shoot us, and leave our little ones to
starve.
“ ‘And all for fashions, too, friend!
Think of mothers—wearing mothers on
their bats whose little ones have been
left behind to die. It's something I
cannot, cannot understand.’
“ ‘All wo can hope for,’ said Mrs.

that they will hear from the keeper

dise.
“ ’I hope,' said Mrs. Heron, ‘that chil¬
dren will remember when they grow
up themselves not to wear feathers
which destroy the lives of birds who
want to live and care for their little
ones.’
“ ‘They strike us down when we're
dancing and happy ami have chosen
our little mates,’ the Bird of Paradise
said sadly.
“ ‘And mothers wear us their
on
bats,’ said Mrs. Heron. ‘They wear oth¬
er mothers whose babies have died of
starvation because of a cruel, cruel
fashion.’
“ ’Let's hope for better times ahead
for our families,’ Mrs. Bird of Para¬
dise ended.
“ ’Let's hope so,’ said Mrs. Heron.
"That is the end of the story,” said
Daddy. “That was their little talk.”
“Oh, Daddy," said Nancy, "I've made
up my mind, of course, never, never,
never in the world to wear feathers of
birds where we’re doing cruel, cruel
harm. I know and I could never for¬
get. But I’ve made up my mind to
start ii club of little girls who’ll all
promise to never wear the feathers of
birds such as the herons or the birds
of paradise or any other feathers where
the birds have to l>e killed. We'll wear
ostrich feathers and plumes which
come out naturally.
“And I'm going to get any number of
my friends together and we’ll have
meetings and at each meeting every
member will tell an interesting story
of some bird she has seen. Once a
month we'll have refreshments.
"But most of all,” said Nancy, for
she could sec Nick smiling over the
refreshments, “we’ll never lie cruel to
birds bemuse of our refreshments."
"That’s light," said Niek. "the idea
of big creatures (ike us being cruel to
little creatures like birds, and I'm go¬
ing to start a boys’ club where we'll
study birds and take their pictures, but
we'll never steal their eggs-"

quarters. For example, a farmer In
Virginia reported 2fi turkeys killed by,
these pests In a night. Another, In
Kansas, lost between 200 and 300
chickens and many eggs by rats dur¬
ing the course of one summer. Hts
neighbors had similar experiences.
From New Jersey has come a report of
rats killing young ducks. An Ohioan
has complained that the animals bur¬
row beneath his coops nnd take
clucks from under the hen. In cer¬
tain neighborhoods of Massachusetts
half a season’s hatch of chickens and
ducklings have been killed by rats.
Rats multiply rapidly when left un¬
disturbed, where there Is plenty to
eat. One pair may Increase to more
than 2,000 in a single year. Whoever
allows his property to become over¬
run by them invites vexation and loss.
MIXTURE FOR LITTLE CHICKS
Give Equal Parts of Hard-Boiled Egg*
and Rolled Oats or Stale Bread
Soaked in Milk.
(Prepared by the United States Depart¬
ment of Agriculture.)
For the first three days chicks may
be fed a mixture of equal parts of
l hard-boiled eggs and rolled oats or
stale bread, or stale bread soaked in
milk. When bread and milk are used
care should be taken to squeeze all the
milk out of the bread. From the
third or fourth day commercial chick
feed may be fed until the chicks are
old enough to eat wheat screenings or
cracked corn.
PLAN FOR MARKETING EGGS
Brown and White Shells Should Be
Placed in Separate Package*—
Keep All Culie.
j (Prepared by the United States Depart¬
ment of Agriculture.)
Market white-shelled and brows
j shelled eggs lu separate packages.
Eggs irregular in shape, those which
j are unusually long or thin-shelled, or
j which have shells otherwise defective,
should be kept by the producer for
| fiome use, so that breakage In transit
mn.v be reduced ns much ns possible.

Ail males except those needed for
breeding purposes, should be got rid
of as soon as possible.

One of the best Inside linings for
poultry houses is tar paper, tacked on
smoothly. Mites do not bother it.

Jt Is said that farmers lose millions
of dollars annually on account of poor
methods of producing and handling
, eggs.

Be a crank about cleanliness, mites
'ice and disease in your poultry yard
and see if it doesn’t pay a big dlvl
! dond.
* * *
Diseases of poultry ore frequently
‘ transmitted through the driuking
wa¬
ter; tire drinking fountain should b«
cleaned daily.
* * *
Chicks on good range get practically
all they need in the way of mineral
: salts through the fresh vegetables, but
ranges are often overrated.
* * *
Help save eggs by keeping the nests
clean ant} free from lice. Gather eggs
twice daily, keep them in a cool, dry
room or cellar, and market twice a
j week.
* * •
Little chickens are often bothered
j j with the hirj# gray-head lice. These
may be destroyed by greasing the
head and throat with lard or sweet o!
and Using a louse powder elsewhere.

down as a part of Holy Scripture.
And Barabbus is the name by which
every rejector of Christ is known, for
It means “son of his father." Son of
his father! Born but once. Twice
dead, therefore, in trespasses and sins.
Barabbas is the name of every man
who has not been born again, proclaim¬
ing what he Is as u sinner lost and un¬
done. “Ye must be born again.” But
Barabbas escapes the cross that has
been prepared for him nnd another
Barabbas, Son of his Father, Only Be¬
gotten and well-beloved, goes to that
cross in his stead, and In yours and
mine. And a legend has it that, as the
darkness gathered round, Barabbas ran
to the foot of it and, smiting his
breast, cried, “Oh, thou Jesus of Naz¬
areth, I know not who thou art, but
one thing I do know; tlwu art hanging
there in my place
Oh, soul, have you said that to Him?
That is the faith (hat saves! That is
tvhat is means to “believe on His name."
It is but saying again with the apostle,
“The Son of God loved me and gave
himself for me.”
But see the other two crosses. Hang¬
ing there arc two men sunk far down
in sin. Not only condemned by the
Homan government to die an igno¬
minious death because of their crimes,
but while standing at death’s door they
revile and blaspheme the Lord of life
and glory: the thieves also which
were crucified with hiiy cast the same
In his teeth."
But a ray of divine light enters the
soul of one, and by it he is led to see
the glory of that Person hanging at
his side. From the depths of his sin¬
ful heart there rises n cry, “Lord, re¬
member me when thou comest in thy
kingdom.’!. He has seen all the truth t
Has seen that this is the long-promised
Messiah. Sees that though he is dying
a shameful death, he must come back
again In his kingdom, according to ail
the prophets and make good the title
nailed above his head: “The King of
the Jews." But the Lord Jesus, with¬
out an upbraiding word, with no sylla¬
ble of reproach, without a question or
condition of any kind, goes far beyond
his request, ns He always dobs, and
says: “You do not have to wait until
I oome in my kingdom; I will do bettor
for you.” “Verily, I say unto thee, to¬
day shalt thou be with me in paradise.”
Saved! in the twinkling of an eye I
Saved! Snatched from the very jaws
of death! A man who is not fit to live
on earth made fit to be with Christ in
paradise! What a miracle! And he Is
the same wonder-working Savior to¬
day. It has been said, “There was one
such case that none might despair, but
only one that none might presume.”
Let us rather say that here is a pat¬
tern case of salvation, clearly and ful¬
ly revealed, so that wherever the story
of the cross should bo told, this story
of the saved thief must be told in con¬
nection with it.
Look now at those three crosses. On
the right hangs the saved slnupr; on
the left the lost one; in the middle the
Savior. This man on the right has
Bin in him still, and so has every saved
man. But there Is no sin on him. Un¬
seen hands have lifted the sin that was
on him and have laid it upon the One
who hangs at his side, and he dies
ocneath the awful lead. This Man on
the middle cross has no sin in him:
‘holy, harmless, undefiled and separate
from sinners” must He be to die in
four place and mine. The sin-offering
n Israel must be without blemish.
This man on the left has sin in him,
nit alas! it is still on him, and he
lies and goes to bell.
Look again! This man on the right
s dying to sin, in the death of his
Substitute on the middle cross. That
s what the Lord meant by losing
>ne’s life In order to find It. I must,
it the cross, lose the life wiih which
[ was born, to find there a new life in
he Crucified. This Man on the middle
:ross Is dying “for” sin. The man on
he left is dying “in” sin.
Oh, soul, these three little preposi
lons tell all the story that our God
s so eager to tell, and that men are
to slow to hear. Do not die In sin, die
o It by receiving as your personal
Savior that Blessed One who died for
t In your place once for all, and phys
cal death shall then, at the very worst
>f its doing, but tape you to be with
ilm.
The Book.
The word “bible” means “the book."
"Here is but one book."—Scott. j
the Son of God,
to the one on
either side a thief.
Thus It must lie,
for Scripture can¬
not be broken and
it is written, “He
was numbered
with the trans¬
gressors.”
But that middle
cross was not
made for Jesus of
Nazareth. It was
made for a mur¬
derer and sedi¬
tion i s t whose
name, Barabbas.,
has been written
