LESSON FOR GANG
To Take Care of Job and Quit
Spilling Over.
Conversation Fest Shows Great Advantages
of a Little Hardship That
Man'c Annreciation
of His Privileges.
"Don't hurry away. Bud; sit down I
and talk; that's the popular recreation
nowadays," said Leonard V. Whenne,
the village philosopher, to the inter- i
ested listener, Glenn M. Farley writes J
in the Seattle Post-Intelligeneei. "We j
have progressed so fast and so far in
the last two or three decades, and arrived
at such a complicated and finely
organized system of civilization, that
we are practically tied up in a web j
-M tlia WOP h!lSJ I

thrown us into confusion, so the world !
has called a square man's meeting, and |
we are trying to talk ourselves out of
it. Everybody has a remedy for repairing
the system, and we are all
standing around giving our views, and
the resultant chorus is something to j
make angels weep."
"Three-a-day, a place to sleep and, a
little amusement is all I want of it," ?
said the Interested Listener. "What |
are they arguing about? My idea (would
be for the whole gang to stop !
talking and go to work." ,
*
"Ulci you reaa auout uuu smptucw
ed sailor they took off a Pacific island !
the other t day?" said Whenne. "He I
was washed ashore, with a barrel of j
port wine, & phonograph and a box of l
soda crackers, and, by gum, he fought j
the rescuing party. They had to hand- j
cuff him and carry him aboard ship, j
He was in favor of the simple life, but
they brought him back home and dumped
him into a longshoremen's strike.
Jkian wants but little here below, but j
he makes an awful fuss about getting ;
it."
"I know," said the Listener. "Our j
landlady gave usjten thousand enraged j
words at the breakfast table because
the phone was out of order, the butcher's
boy was late with the meat and i
the electric lights were short circuited."
"The more people get," said Whenne, !
"the more they want, and the harder 1
.. i
th^v nre to ulease. Things have come
? ^ w
so easy they have lost their appetite. '
A little hardship is a good thing once <
fn a while, if for nothing more than i
to increase a man's appreciation of his j
privileges. Everything is relative; sun- J
shine and fresh air, without any trim- !
mings at all, are heaven enough to the j
guy who gets up from a sick J ?d, and j
even a ham sandwich is a blessed priv- ;
ilege to a hungry man. Here is Ainer- j
ica, full of food and comfort to the j
neck, standing around and wondering |
whnt is the matter, and listening to

Aren Fiber.
It seems probable, says the Board
of Trade Journal, that a considerable
trade may develop in the Netherlands
East Indies in the preparation and
export of aren liber, which is obtained
from the fibrous mass found on
the leaf sheaths of the aren palm
(Arenga saceharifera Labill) after the
fall of the old leaf stem. The material

and is used uy tlie natives for thatching,
ropes and small, stiff brooms, and
also as a binding material in native
house construction and canoes. There
is also a European demand for aren
fiber, arising from its great resistance
to water, which makes the fiber markedly
suitable for covering submarine
cables. Aren fiber does not appear to
be utilizable in the paper industry.
A Lost Opportunity.
Mrs. O'gar (a typical product of the
Kentucky mountains) came to a small
Missouri town to live. One of the j
many new diversions she found was
the picture show. Recently she attended
a "movie," and during the interval
between parts, a picture for the
tourtii iiDerty loan was uirown uu
the screen. It portrayed the kaiser in
dire distress on his knees to Uncle
Sam, while Our Uncle wrathfuUy
shook his fist at the despised creature.
After the show Mrs. O'gar was heard
to say disgustedly to her ''better half':
"Mike, I can't see why in the world

Americanization Influence.
An unforeseen by-product of homedemonstration
work, especially in
cities, has been its influence as an aid
in the Americanization of people of
foreign birth or extraction. In many
instances it was the home-demonstration
agent in her food-conservation
work who gave the foreign woman the
first understanding of the war and her
duty as an American citizen.

| Ed Houston, a farmer living north of
j Junction City, Ivan., who followed all
accounts of battles in the big war j
very closely.
Mr. Houston says thnt the Indian
was an adept at crying "Kamerad,"
[ In his own tongue, of course, long before
the German empire was formed,
and cites an experience of his own
tn r\rnvu it
Mr. Houston was a member of !
Troup G. Seventh cavalry, the regi* j
meut commanded l?y the gallant Col. j
George Custer, for eight years. Un- I
der Captain Edgerly he went to the
scene of the fine Bidge troubles. The
troops lined up to disarm a hand of
i Indians that had given themselves up.
j They included the chief. Big Foot, and
j a large number of braves, as well as j
: women and children.
j The captives were herded together |
j anil soldiers formed a hollow square
! around them. Each Indian wore his
blanket draped over his shoulders,
I
and, with arms folded across the chest
(d the customary Indian position,
maintained a stoical silence. It was
known that a number of the Indians i
carried guns, but no treachery was !
suspected.
Suddenly, apparently without a j
given signal, one Indian opened fire j
on the surprised troopers. Instantly j
all of the other braves followed suit, |
and even the squaws and older chil- j
dren joined in the attack upon the
! soldiers.
! Little Indian boys with sawed-off
[ shotguns fought until killed and the
| battle was a bloody affair. It ended .
when there were no more Indians, be- ;
I cause the soldiers, angered at the
j trickery that had been shown, gave
j no quarter and the Indians asked for
i none.
j The following day the Seventh went
i to Drexel Mission, where another bat- j
j tie took place. After the Pine Ridge j
I trouble had been stamped out, the
regiment returned to its station at
i Fort Riley, where Mr. Houston con* '
