The warm summer sun has more power than the north wind. Everybody likes to be treated kindly and in almost every case w ill respond to kindness when tkey w ill not to harshness. And we never know how much good we do when we do a kind act toward some of the people who have not had a lot of happiness and kindness in their Lives. A lot of suffering would be save# to humanity if people would only practice kindness, and not only the one receiving the kind act is Mo hurrying out of bed had they helped, but the one doing kind deeds l*h bolting breakfast down, is made happier and better by his Mo hasty walk to shop la tear acts.

Every season for con siderably more than 50 years we have read accounts of these hunting ac cidents. and the warnings against carelessness in the handling of fire arms and yet It seems that „these hunting accidents occur with the same old-time regularity and fre quency. from which one is led to infer that it is time wasted, to warn hunters against carelessness. How ever, we will tell the hunters a story and maybe they can find a moral to About 1,800 miles from Newberg, in a quiet country graveyard, a plain marble slab chronicles the result of a hunting trip in a few plain words which tell the sad story: Beneath this stone Lies W illie Pence, Who pulLed a shot Gun through the fence.

SETS H E W RECORD Word comes from Henry Ford's tractor plant near Detroit, that Ford- son production figures are jumping monthly, and that nearly half of the tractors now being manufactured in this country are Fordsons. When the motor-wizard began ex perimenting with tractors some twelve years ago. he is credited with having promised farmers a machine that would make farming “ what ^t ought to be— the most pleasant and profitable profession in the world." Deviating from old tractor beliefs and manufacturing customs, he set about building a light, mobile tract or,— a tractor not especially, for use on the big farms and ranches, but so constructed that it would handle the work on the smaller farms. The principles of manufacturing and sell ing which had brought the Ford car to success are now applied to the tractor. As a result nearly 150,000 Fordsons have gone into service; ap proximately one-third of the tractors In use In the United States are Ford sons— this, In spite of the fact that the Fordson has been on the market only a little over two years.
