Olson, and Mrs A Adamek or of a self evident truth, or a human endeavor, human love question the answer to which may be true, false, or at least debatable. The If for todays meditation is found in the book of Job and reads as follows; If a man die, shall he live again? The man who delivered the funeral oration of the late Senator Ingalls used the following heart rending statement. "Every death is a tragedy, wc stand by the open grave, mutter a few prayers and rush back to the struggles and meannesses of life. Perhaps, a few hearts are made to mourn; but time soon heals the wound, and erelong the cold and pulsless marble lone keeps its silent watch over the dead. Every death is a tragedy because it marks the end of and human Somewhat less dismal discourse a little later was delivered by the great but mislead Bob Ingersoll in which he said at the funeral of his brother "We do not know, we can not tell whether death is a wall or a doori the beginning or the end of a day; the rising or the setting of a sun; but we do know that on the nearer or farther shore, or in mid ocean, every boat must meet with disaster." The only authoritative answer to the age old question of if a man die shall he live again, is given by Jesus Christ, whom the Gospel writer St, John says in Chapter 1 that in the beginning was with God and was God.

All things were made by Him and without Him, was not made anything that was made. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. Jesus Christ said of death and life: that belleveth on me, though he were dead, yet shall he live A full and direct answer to the question of Job and complete details of how' we obtain the blessings of living ni gain the new life after the death of this earthly existence, The results are entirely with ourselves, we may reject the invitation of Jesus Christ and pay the penalty for so doing; or we may accept it and be assured of a happy life here on this earth and eternal joy and perfect bliss in the home prepared for us by the Saviour of the w'orld.

S. SPENCER COMPANY 301 W. 2nd Phone 6 THE GREEN YEARS You have read the story of the long green years, when there was plenty in the land. Those days arc long past, and we must not let the land that we love die through neglect. More and more we hear of Soil Conservation.

Let's conserve our soil for future generations. The trouble is that too often we think about doing something to better our land, but never seem to get around to putting anything into actual use. We know of one man in this big State of Texas who "took the bull by the horns" and decided to DO SOMETHING ABOUT HIS LAND. Not only has he had the satisfaction of knowing that he is improving land for future generations, but he has put cold, hard cash in his own pocket, through vastly increased yields. Clinton Harbers is the man, a big man, because he has foresight that too many of us have lost in this modern age.

Without the aid of expensive equipment irrigation or outside capital, Mr. Harbers has developed a land conditioning system that has paid off in handsome profits. Read this and you will see how he has improved his land. With normal rainfall he makes from a bale and a half to two bales to the acre and get this in this dry year he made 416 pounds of lint per acre, 50 bushels of corn to the acre. Does he have a magic formula? No, and you can hear him 1 el I all about his methods to make these high yields.
