THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 27. 1913.
It has often occurred to us
that children would pret on so ]
much better at school if parents ,
would only cultivate thft friend- j I
ship of the teacher more, and 1
win her confidence. We are <
quite sure that if mothers would 1
let the teachers see that they J j
have an interest in them and j J
the children too, it would stimu-;,
late the teachers and their1 j
pupils. It stands to reason that j
if the teacher knows that the 1
parents are co-operating with i
ber, the efforts which she puts I
forth are more likely to result 3
j in greater progress being made ^
- by the children. There is no J
need whatever to make a great (
friend of the teacher, but it <
would certainly help matters a (
great deal if, say, the teachers "]

a definite time or spend a! >
certain evening with the chil- <
dren and parents. Such little t
matters are worth thinking "
about and we feel convinced that 1
mothers who try what we have
suggested will be pleased with :
the results. This was not written
at the suggestion of any j
teacher, either. s
i
No man who makes a practice
of being dishonest and re- s
pudiating his just accounts ever
amounts to a hjll of beans. In
the commercial world they never 1
get to the quarter pole. The '
successful busine.-s man thinks
more of his credit than he does j'
of his wife, lor he knows if his!,

show of getting another, hut if
his credit forsakes him he is up
agninst it. He can have but one <
credit. It seems strange with I
all this in mind that young men
will start out with healing little
bills at the restaurants and ai
the store. They will even borrow
fiity cents of a liiend and
refuse to pay it back. That class
of lellows always wear a banner ,
that can be seen all over town
and everybody is onto them, i
When it comes to paying your
debts, "honesty is the best
policy."

When you go into the postn
i I 1 n m i ma f m r\t im I /J r* m ' 4
vinv;c anu iii\{uiic iui mail, uuu t
try to fill up the delivery hole i
"with the north end of vour body.
If you merely stand ofF and fire
your request through those whom
you address will respond promptly.
After you receive your mail, '
* don't stand monopolizing the
delivery while you look to see the
post mark and guess who the
letters are from. Let those behind
you have a chance, for life
is short and time is fleeting.
Please remember this and you
will confer a favor on those in
the rear.
The true thrift of the people
of a town may be judged by the
dooryards they keep. Beauty i
contributes to the happiness of
all, and only selfish hearts can
see no good in nicely arranged
premises. The public spirited >
citizen, the truly benevolent
soul, the heart of good morals,
and the thoroughly religious!
mind will never permit thorns j
or thistles, brush and briars, and
all manner of unsightly things

Using Much Fertilizer.
In spite of the fact that the
season has been unusually late j
ia getting under way present
indications are that this year's
fertilizer will not only exceed
those of last year by a consider*
able amount, but will equal the
shipments of 1911, which was
one of the best years on record
in the history of the industry.
i
xucic arc several reasons assigned
for the success of the
industry this year, and one of
the best indications of it is the
fact that while the season was
just about as late last year as
this year in commencing, the
shipments to date are much
larger than those received last
year for the same period. The
railroads have about completed
their arrangements for handling
this season's movement and are
counting on a big business.
The President's I.nrkv Thirteen
? / ??
Let the superstitious cultivate
number 13 if they want luck.
\t least, President-elect Wilson
!inds it so, and any combination
which by addition, subtraction
ir multiplication will produce
die lucky number, gives him the
greatest delight. "Thirteen,"
ne says, "have always been running
through my life in connecion
with some good fortune."
Sis name?Wood row Wilson?has
iust thirteen letters. It is said
ne dropped Thomas, his first
lame, in order to get down to
ucky thirteen. For thirteen
fears he was a professor in
Princeton university, and then
was elected its thirteenth presiient.
He was nominated and
dected president of the United
States in 1912, which by the adlition
of its digit makes 13.
The electoral college met on the
hirteenth of January, and he
vill be the "28th president," a
:omhination of figures totaling
.hirteen.
