The scores of boys who, are being brought before the courts for burglaries all come from the city. Speaking of the fact that many young men leave the farm, he said that this was probably due to the feeling that they could make more money in the city. This, he said, lies with the individual.

He referred to two young farmers of his acquaintance, who started out with equal opportunities. One has made a success of the business and is making $2,500 a year, while the other failed and has been sold out by the sheriff. It all depends upon the man and the energy and intelligent effort he puts into his work. He commen'ded the grange for what it is doing in the way of educating the young people to remain on the farm and in a general way promoting the interests of farming. Miss Bess Craine, of Antis township, entertained the assemblage with a recitation entitled "Miss Edith Entertains." It was well rendered and thoroughly enjoyed by all present.

Superintendent Davis was then introduced and delivered a very able address on "The Grange in Its Relation to the Public Schools." Mr. Davis began by referring to the great good that is being accomplished for rural education by Dr. P. P. Claxton, national commissioner of education, by bringing about the co-operation of the good forces of the various communities.

He then told of the work of Holbrook among the people of the Ozark mountain regions, and of James Friday, November 19, will be a day tbat will not soon be forgotten by the -women of the Missionary Union of this city.

The president, Mrs. H. H.

Stiles, called the meeting to order and stated the purpose, that of interdenominational prayer for foreign missions, and opened the meeting by readiug a beautiful poem on 'Prayer." The hist subject was "'Thanksgiving," this ing in charge of Mrs. W. W. Blake. After a most delightful service of praise and thanksgiving, the different denominations were called to tell in a few minutes the reasons they have for thanksgiving.

There can be no better advertisement for the farmers. They must advertise their products!
