.lust from the Mountains.
Tile rain descended and the
floods come ami the sail on our
till] sides is now at the mouth ol
1 lie rivers. Ditches and terraces
broke over and went the near way.
Some used to lie afraid of Bermu¬
da grass, but it is about tlie only
thing that will keep the land from
washing away. The rain was al¬
most equal to the days of Loah. It
looketi like nobody would be safe
but Mr Tom Davidson, for his ark
was resting on the top of Yonah
mountain. (hi the next day the
cooing of a dove was heard over on
Pink, for she had found some dry¬
land to rest on. It was only win¬
ter shedding crocodile tears because
he feels spring ii near,
Easter does not consist in eating
drinking and climbing mountains,
but should be kept as a sacred day.
Some people talk and fuss at each
other, hut on Easter they get
friendiv anil kill the old setting
hen and have a family reunion.
'Hie boys used to hide, out eggs
several days, then on Easter Day
they would aU get together and go
away oil on some hranct|. Each
hoy had ten eggs in his pockets
and an oyster can and some salt.
But in these days they haven’t the
lime to boil them but prefer them
scrambled and nearly raw. If
some of the eggs are had scramb¬
ling them is the best way to cook
I Item.
YVhen spring opens up don’t go
to the city and set you up a filling
station, but get out in the country
in the free sunshine and air and
taken few deep breaths and a
good sweat and you will get 1441 ol
ti e Monday blues. L fe is action
and when we quit moving and
take no exercise we are not living
in a true sense. Form a companion¬
ship with the growing.plants, the
budding flowers, the singing birds,
the babbling brooks and ihe do¬
mestic and wild animals. \\ hat is
more beautiful than the golden
sunset, the t winklingling stars and
the rainbow with all the color-,
and is al-o a token that the earth
will not he drowned any more.
"Where thy treasure is thy heart
will be also.” You sometimes
hear people say that our young
people are going to the bow wows.
The young people of tlie present
age are just like you were when
you were when you were young.
The only difference fcis that you
traveled 5 miles per hour and the
youth of the present age are going
from 60 to 80 miles. It now looks
like they all will have wings atui
fie flying in a few more years. It
you would stay on|ihe bright side
of life live with young people as
much as possible. Drink from the
flowing fountain and not the stag¬
nant pool. The young are evei
growing and have new ideas, but
the old sometimes grow stupid and
sour, and therefore people shun
them as much as possible. Fill
confidence in the young and they
will trust von

Dr. L. G. Neal is performing
constructive and patriotic service
10 the nation in lreely giving his
-ervice in making physical examin¬
ation of local boys seeking admis
-ion to the C. M. T. Camps, an¬
nounces )as. P. Davidsou, county
chairman of the C. M. T. C. asso¬
ciation’s enrollment committee.
"Dr. Neal’s voluntary action is
gratefully acknowledged by a'l in¬
terested in the C. M. T. C. cam
paign.and is especially appreciated
by their parents and friends.”
Pointing out facts derived from
he last complete survey of the
physical fitness ot American youth,
made during the World war,which
allowed nearly half ol the nation’s
manhood suffering from bodily de¬
fects, Mr. Davidson says:
"1 must urge the advantages of
enrolling for C. M. T. Camps, if
for no other reason t|utn to dis
over actual conditions of health.
'Hie majority of physical defect
iiscovered by war-time exaniina
. tons could have been corrected by
imely treatment,” lie declared."It
.vould seem from this experience,
1 lint the best gift a father can give
ms son is an annual visit to the
doctor. If this was done, much
suffering in later life might he
1 voided.
"Parents can obtain this free
.ervice and advice lor the correc¬
tion of defects for four years, if
heir sons attend the C. M. T.
Camps. In addition, the hoys get.
without charge, thirty days’ train¬
ing under expert instructors, all
