( A MONSTER TO DEVOUR US Under the above frightful head the Augusta Chronicle makes this ref- 1 cicme ttnu comment upon Senator E. ' D. Smith, of South Carolina, quoting him as follows: "I was one of the legislators that helped to frame the Federal Reserve legislation. It was our intention to provide for social needs of the farmers by a more elastic currency system. But if you fail him now in the hour of his extremity when the export markets of the world are closed and the home demand fails, then it will look more as if we had created a Frankenstein monster to devour us. "With prices falling and staple crops selling for half the cost of producing them, the farmer must have help or go under. For several years the manufacturers of goods have been able to name their own prices and regulate their markets, but in times of toppling prices the farmer has no relief unless you grant it. It is absurd to call a farmer a profiteer when he can control neither the price of the goods he buys nor the crop he sells." The South is fortunate in having a man to put matters up so forcefully and so truthfully to the Federal Reserve Board and we cannot doubt that the most powerful agitation that has been going on for several weeks is going to result in great good. It appears that we have an academic secretary of the treasury, a former college professor from Missouri, who coldly turns the farming interests down when they make their appeal for aid, while the Southern banker from Birmingham, Ala., who heads the Federal Reserve Svsteni. has at one time flambouyantly stated that the Reserve Board would not help the farmers to hold for higher prices and at other times he says there is plenty of money to be had for the orderly marketing of the crop. The truth ubout it is that neither the secretary of the treasury nor the Federal Reserve Board has any idea of helping the farmers unless they are compelled to do so. A Philadelphia preacher, of the Methodist persuasion, led Federal agents to a saloon where they found and consficated whiskey to the value of $100,000. You have heard the expression, "As smart as a Philadelphia lawyer," but this Philadelphia preacher was some smart also. The Federal Reserve Board has given out the statement that in the distribution of money in the whole country the amount per capital is $51.06. Most of us who have the six cents must hustle and get the $51. It is up to us. You must revise the old saying about women always being late. In Cincinnati the female jurors were ahead of time and had to wait for the men before court could proceed. Squelched The handsome young woman, having reached the street corner, seemed not quite sure which direction to take. A masher who had been following her, seized his opportunity, approached her and said. "Er-beg pardon, but i you seem in doubt where you want to go." She gave him a crushing glance. "Indeed?" she said, "Well, I'm not in doubt where I want you to go." He left suddenly.?Boston Transcript. PUT FIGHTING QUALITIES IN YOUR BI.OOD IF YOU ARE PALE AND WEAK, WITHOUT AMBITION.

Such a big business is not the concern of pupils and teachers alone; it is for every man and woman in the country, lawyer and seamstress, grocer and housewife, it is yours and % mine. Coming down to concrete facts, j what can the average farmer's wife do to make the school better? She can call a meeting of the woman's club to consider school needs. This can appoint committees and individuals to do what is necessary. Some of the work that will be found necessary in many schools is: (1) To repair cold, drafty, poor t'oois so ns to prevent life leet from suffering. (2) Ventilate so that hot, draftless upper air will not stunt brains and devitalize the blood. (3) Rooms that are dark should be yiven more windows. (4) Windows wrongly placed require proper shades to prevent glare. (5) Encourage beauty. (6) Music of all kinds should be encouraged. (7) Provide for hot lunches. (8) Boarding places for teachers thauld be arranged in advance. Do you realize that teachers require rest and quiet to do their studying for the next day's work? They need good food, for indigestion and headache in the teacher take from the child that something imparted only when cheeriness and spontaneity are present. If the women of the neighborhood cannot take the teacher to board easily, then they should start a movement to build a teacher's home or a dormitory. Many neighborhoods make i teachers comfortable and they are the ones that justly get the best.?The Progressive Farmer. $100 Reward, $100 The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages'and that is catarrh.
