Single Copies MORROW COUNTY'S OFFICIAL PAPER Foreign Advertising Representative THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION Thinking. PROFESSOR JAMES KEN NELL, Dean of New York Uni versity, savs scientists take too much for granted that strange sub stance, water, which we under stand "as little as we understood oxygen 150 years ago." He tells you: "If the active constituent of air were hydrogen instead of oxy gen, fires would be extinguished by sprinkling gasoline on them in stead of water and fireproof build ings would be built of solid paraf fine." A drop of water IS a mys terious thing. Magnify its diame ter from an eighth of an inch to 100,000,000 miles in diameter, and the molecules of water would be come visible, each made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen, each atom a little solar system in itself, forever indestruc tible and existing from all time, as far as we know. Because of vast distances in side that drop, you would need a telescope. With it you could see inside of the atom electrons re volving around a nucleus at the centre of each atom TRILLIONS OF TIMES A SECOND. Water is mysterious, and so is everything matter, force and consciousness. Things we do not know are more numerous than those we do know. It is not certain that we actually know anything. We are here and don't know how we got here must leave and don't know where we are going. We harness and use the elec tric, but don't know what electric ity is, while we create it artificial ly with falling water or burning coal. We use a mind or soul and don't know what that is. We hope for immortality, but are not sure about it. We talk of solid matter, and know that it is made up of in finitesimal aggregations of elec tric particles. - Nevertheless, we get along fair ly well. A little knowledge is enough. Shocking the Soil. DONALD WOODWARD, at Le roy, N. Y., is experimenting with a plow that enriches the earth by plowing into it a high electrical voltage as the plow moves through the field. Hamilton L. Roe, of Pittsburg, who invented the plow, says the 103,000 volts of electricity that it carries destroys weeds and harmful bacteria, while renewing the fertility of depleted farm land and producing crops in record time. The tractor that pulls the plow generates electricity sent through steel cables into the earth. Many a farmer will be inter- Songs of Plain Folks HieCalloftheb Give me a pulling team And a sharp share throwing Black soil up from the beam When a brisk wind's blowing, That the good plow lays oiraigni; ana i win rejoice In the sun-glad days. Give me the sweet, gold wheat aiiu a sicKie singing, A flashing reel, and the beat Of a knotter flinging Bundles, solid and long; Venturing full-sailed ships, l in trie blue, bright sky. Give me the lark's song, now, And the deep night after, Feel of hoe and the plow, And the free farm laughter! jive me a love that s true, And a home made bright With courage to dream and do And to live life right! i Ml III In ui-' ta,t 1 III I V 1 A I I 11 II , I II lllMl t Wriu're Ntwissper Union. 11127 VA MM XfcFraitk Grans Says THINGS WILL TAKE A TURN "I would rather be dead than a failure," said Belle Anderson, a thirty-year-old post graduate student at the University of Cali fornia Hospital the other day. So she mixed herself a death potion which her own knowl edge as a chemist had taught her to make and committed suicide out on a lonely roadside where her body was found an hour later by a lone teamster. Another one of those "rashly importunate." Why hurry? Why not see what time will do? Time solves more problems than all our wit. Most of us who have reached riper years can look back over our lives and see that the best things that ever happened to us were the frustrations of our desires oftentimes. We wanted something badly. We wept for it and strove for it, but another got the coveted prize. Then the world all went dark and we were ready to give up. But something else came along after awhile and further ex perience and wisdom showed us that it would have been Very bad for us to have succeeded in getting the thing we wanted. When we get to Heaven, if we ever do, I think that in look ing back over our earthly career we will value our kicks more than our kisses. We will be able to truly say that, "with our stripes we were healed." Because things do not come your way do not lose heart. Wait. Something better is probably just around the corner. It is this attitude of constant hope that keeps the soul lighted up. It does not do to act rashly. No one can tell what tomorrow may bring forth. Tomorrow is the great adventure. About all that keeps life worth living is the element of adventure in it. When you have committed suicide you have taken the step which precludes all further adventure and you have extinguished the lamp of the soul and the light of life. What may happen in the next world we do not know, but we know that in this world something is bound to happen tomor row. Why not stay alive and see it? If you are feeling pretty bad, perhaps it may comfort you to think that whatever happens it cannot be worse than what has already happened, therefore it will probably be better. Keep trudging along and surely some opportunity will come to you to get away from the hated routine. ested in the statement that the use of this plow in a buckwheat field freed the land of quack-grass and weeds, the buckwheat seed ger minated in eighty hours and buck wheat plants grew twice as high as those in one half the field that was plowed without electricity, and fertilized with "200 pounds of fertilizer to the acre." When time and money are applied to agricul ture as they are now applied to in dustry some of the farmers' trou bles will vanish. Now We Ask You ! TOO many noisy marriages, too many quiet divorces, says the Rev. Dr. Stetson, rector of New York's Trinity Church, that looks from Broadway down on Wall Street to a convenient dock on the East River. Dr. Stetson fears that we may imitate Soviet Russia "where divorce is granted without question," and that our Govern ment will some day make poly gamy legal. He also deplores the power of sex appeal. Scientists, on the other hand, say the one danger threatening the human race is the possible dy ing out of that same sex appeal, in which case there would be no more children, and the race would fade away. What power was it, or what appeal, that, in Dr. Stetson's opinion, brought about the mar riage of Adam and Eve long ago?

An INSURANCE COMPANY tells us that baseball, hunting and golf in the order named are the three most dangerous sporst. We always thought there was some thing the matter with golf being as how the Scotch gave it to us. Advertising. ADVERTISING and not com petition is now the life of trade, according to the advertising experts who met in Denver to at tend the International Advertising association convention. The dele gates at this meeting heard a num ber of interesting things. Among these was the statement by Chas Stelzle, New York expert, to the effect that if churches do not ad vertise their "ware" spiritual up building and moral betterment for both the individual and humanity they cannot hope to arouse in terest among the masses and ful fill the obligations placed upon them as parties to the general spiritual movement, Another speaker declared that "advertising is greater than any single moral force we know of to day. Advertising brings about changes for the betterment of life itself, changes which fuse into the social and political life of the na tion. It is now generally admitted by economic forces everywhere that advertising is the most important development of modern business And it is also coming to be real ized that newspaper advertising is the best kind of paid publicity. In the convention just mentioned the delegates, who were advertising experts, agreed that newspaper advertising affords the best pub licity medium for the churches and all church activities. Advertising is no longer a the ory. It is a science. And it pays. Glands will not bring back youth, declares a world-famous American surgeon. Neither will toupees, hair dye, bobbed hair anJ rouge. Some pepole are like water melons. Thev mav be preen on the outside but are the real thing underneath Laugh and the world laughs with you. Smile and you're call ed a rlirt. People like the man with cour age enough to stand up and say what he thinks providing he thinks their way. It is reported that Reeeie Van- derbilt has spent thirty million dol lars in twenty years and yet we nave never heard that he ran a newspaper or backed a show troupe.
