THE BEAUTY OS THE MOCKING
BIRD S SONG
A mocking bird has graciously se
lected the trees around our house
and garden for his 1924 series of
summer outdoor concerts, and we
feel highly honored by his choice.
Therggjnny be considerable question
ns to now much of the so-called mu
sic of to-day is really music, but no
body enn doubt that the jubilant
singer-artist w!*o conducts our out
door concerts has melodies unrivaled
by Caruso’s. And as he day after day
pours forth his happy songs out of
the sheer gladness ol kis heart, caiv
less alike of applause or reward, one
cannot but recall Kinling’s lines n
bout the Paradise in which it. w 11
also hi true of human beings that —
“No one shall work for money, and
no one shall work for fame,
But each for the joy of the work
ing . ...”

THE EASTER SEASON
1 .
Easter is at hand, with its spirit
ol' growth and rejuvenation. It
brings to our mind the awakening
of hie, the zcst and joy of living.
It is a reminder that youth must te
served. That service is essential,
for our boys and girls aie the be t
security for the nation’s future,
'i hoy are the torchbearers of to
morrow, our country’s prop and
mainstay, its huil.ieis and deienders.
ln( this nation youth has unob
structed opportunities; every voca
tion is open to its enterprise and a
bility. Our educational system gives
free access to learning. Our publ c
schools not only equip our boys and
girls for citizenship, by training
their minds and bodies, but incul
cate by precept and example the
principles of democracy.
How our citizenry has respond, and
to its opportunities is shown by u, -
ures denoting the progress of edu
cation. In 1880 one out oil ovc y
six was without schooling; iiLl92o.
forty years later, only one in™even
teen. Had our population increased
ns rapidly in ratio as our high school
enrollment, since 1800, it would
number today nearly seven humir and
million. The increase in enrollment
of air common schools during the
ten year period ending 1920 was
more- than twenty per cent.
It is gratifying to note from the
foregoing that wg are regarding ed
ucation a.' a vital factor. Th sis
the day of educated boys and grD.
More and more Will they on maturi
ty be drawn into the ranks of busi
ness. Commercial and mercant.le
life is fast f<llowing the professions
in its call for organized knowledge.
That we are appreciative of the won
derful part our educational system
plays in the progress of the country
the growing attendance in all our
institutions attests; a growth stimu
lated not merely by increased popu
lation but a growth indicating a rec
ognition of the value of schooling.
With the progress of the n tion
the schools, too, have advanced.
Their scope has been enlarged, the
technique impioved, their physical
plants standardized, and the quality
of equipment bettered. The cost of
| education is a relative term and will
admit of comparison only in terms
of service rendered.
The rapid strides of our educat'on
are comparable only to the advance
in our inventions, and this is an
inventive age in which America r'n s
in prominence. During t’-e last fifty
years there have been fifty outstand
ing inventions. These represent the
greater factors in our present-day
civilization. Education* has been
keening step with this progress.
It has seen the induction or spread
of the Junior High and Consolidated
Schools; the Industrial and Voca
tional Schools; the Continuation and
Americanization Schools; the devel
opment of such departments a*
Health, Art and Music; higher teach
er requirements and teaching stan
dards; increased civic pride and a
higher conception of what an effi
cient school system means. Tts re
flection in the industrial l’fe of the
nation may h e seen in the instsnee
of a large industrial concern with
71 nor cent foreign born on its pay
roll twelve years ago today revers
ing the figures wdth 60 per cent na
tive born. It is needless to s-iy
that these altered figures relate the
new attitude of industry toward ed
ucational standards.
Our young people are the.nation’s
crusaders and their armor is educa
tion.

BLONDE BESS OPINES
"The lip# that touch liquor #hall
never touch mine because I’ve got
the ccellar locked up."
Frequent
Bilious Attacks
"I suffered with severe bili
ous attacks that came on two
or three times each month,”
says Mr. J. P. Nevins, of
Lawrenceburg, Ky. “I would
get nauseated. I would have
dizziness and couldn’t work.
I would take pills until I was
worn-out with them. I didn't
seem to get relief.
“A neighbor told me of
BLACK-DRAUGHT
Liver Medicine
and I began its use. I never
have found so much relief
as it gave me. I would not
be without it for anything. It
seemed to cleanse my whole
system and made me feel like
new. I would take a few
doses —get rid of the bile and
have my usual clear head,
feel full of pep, and could do
twice the work.”
Bilious attacks are '‘sea
sonal" with many people.
Millions have taken Thed
ford’s Black-Draught to ward
off such attacks, and the good
results they have reported
should induce you to try it.

For Cold on uie
Chest
Don't Fa** with Mustard Plasters!
Musterole works Easier, Quicker
Ycur doctor advises a mustard appli
cation to-break a cold that has gone
down into the chest. The modem mus
tard treatment is Musterole, which
stirs circulation and loosens congestion.
Musterole is a dean, white ointment,
made with oil of mustard, menthol,
camphor and other simples. Just rub it
on with the fingers. A warm tingle fol
lows —then the welcome relief. There’s
no danger of grip, “flu,” or pneumonia,
if you apply it soon enough. Comes in
jars or tubes, 35 or 65 cents. If for in
fants or small children, ask for the mild
form, “Children's Musterole.”
