Conference on Rural School Consolidation The national conference on rural school consolidation to be held at the Iowa State Teachers College next month will be one of the most im

portant educational gatherings in the history of

the country. The rural school problem has been an acute one for many years. Many methods have been suggested to overcome the handicaps

of a one-teacher school, the most popular being

a consolidation of isolated schools into one building.

Experts who have had successful experience

in consolidated rural schools and in one-teacher

schools will diagnose the case and discuss it be

fore the educators. Leaders in rural education and country life work have promised to attend. The number of one-room rural schools is

about 210,000, two-thirds of which, according to experts, could be consolidated. About 70,000 cannot be consolidated, but it is asserted that

about 20,000 of the weaker ones could be consolidated into stronger one-teacher schools. The conference will assume the following attitude, which is set out in the program, toward the one-teacher rural schools : "There schools must not be neglected. They must not be boycotted. They must not be starved. But they must be made the best schools that it is possible for money and qualified teachers to

the whole public school system in these schools if you are going to place the best qualified teachers anywhere; for, here is where the herculean task is. It is not the place for amateur adventurers or juvenile pretenders. Wherever the nation

and the state permit a man to go with his fam-j

ily in an honest effort to earn an honest living, it is the duty of the nation and the state to follow that family and to provide the children thereof with adequate school privileges. This is not done now in at least one hundred thousand rural schools of the United States."

Tree Conservation The value of our forests is increasing in public esteem. Slowly but surely we are learning that logging off our timber lands and permitting the land to grow up with underbrush is not only wasteful but also detrimental. The federal government is conserving forests by planting millions of new trees and encouraging state governments to adopt policies of conservation. Water and coal companies are beginning to co-operate with the government. In 1919 two

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK LIVING IN THE LIGHT I confess a kind of child terror at great storms tho I love them! But I would never choose to live in a country where storms never came. None of the great forces of Nature is more uplifting than that of the sun. He is a pretty poor sport who would not face his days courageously after having been touched by a billion sun rays on awakening in the morning. And yet it is only on the bright days that grekt shadows are possible. ' It's that way with the most helpful characters those who have become greatest. Their paths have been strewn with shadows. Because, you see, it is the shadows which force out the man as he stands boldly against a background of tests. It takes all kinds of people to make a world, they say, but it takes more kinds of experiences to make a man. By living in the light, we learn to go thru the darkness. The sun I like to think of as God's breath breathing health and newness into the world. It is a scientific fact that the rays of the sun are able to kill the most virulent germen somehow nothing of evil lasts long under its purifying power. On the other hand, there is no other power so great in creative force as the sun. It makes all Nature glow radiant! And we are all happiest on the sunny days. Let us live in the light. And strive to bring others into it.

At a dinner given by the prime minister of a little kingdom, which shall be nameless, a distinguished diplomat complained to his host that the minister of justice, who had been sitting on his left, had stolen his watch. "Ah, he shouldn't have done that," said the prime minister, in .tones of

annoyance; "I will get it back for

you." Sure enough, toward the end of the evening the watch was returned to its owner.

"And what did he say?" asked the

diplomat.

Sh-h," cautioned the host, glancing anxiously about him. "He doesn't

know that I've got it back."

"Even Elinor Glynn," repeated the Widow, "starts right off with the old, old banal statement, that "man Is a natural-born Hunter!'" "Well, Isn't he?" demanded the Bachelor innocently. "Of course!" The Widow waved her teaspoon with a gesture of scorn, "And woman is a natural-born Fisher!" "What!" The Bachelor almost tipped over his tea. "You overlooked that, didn't you?" laughed the Widow, "That's what they all overlook, or forget of ignore. They always assume that a Woman's one wild desire Is to be the auarry in the love-chase, and that herne consuming passion Is to land a hukband.

"For the pleasure of fishing, Mr. Weather by! For glory for vanity for excitement! What does a man fish for? He doesn't catch a fish, because he Wants it, does he but Just because he wants to see if he Can catch it. Yet, every time a lrl casts

"Simply because 'smiling' is a habit with me," explained the Widow. "That's Just what I'm trying to prove. From the time a woman is old enough to climb up and look Into a mirror, she learns .that a smile Is more becoming and more useful to her than a frown. It becomes second nature to her to pat her hair and glance in the mirror, and assume her most attractive expression, at the sound of a masculine footstep. To charm just for the sake of being charming is not only a primeval instinct with her, it's a feminine fetich handed down to her by hundreds of ancestors. And the fact that she tries to be attractive to a man doesn't mean that she wants to marry him, or to 'vamp', him, or to break his heart or deceive him it doesn't mean a thing in the world " "Except an acute and irresistible desire to see if she Can attract him!" put in the Bachelor.

WEBSTER GAINS TWENTY POUNDS TAKING TANLAC

"Thanks to Tanlac I am not only starting this New Year in better physical condition than I have in years, but I have gained twenty pounds in weight since I started taking it," said J. D. Webster, 1646, Summit Street, Kansas City, Mo., recently. Mr. Web

ster is a valued employee of the F. W. Woolworth five and ten-cent store.

Continuing, he said: "For the past four years I have suf

fered with stomach trouble and nerv

ous indigestion. My appetite has been

exceedingly poor, and the little I did manage to eat would cause me intense misery, as gas would form and press against my heart so it would palpitate something awful, and I had great difficulty in getting my breath. My nerves were in such bad condition the least little noise out of the ordinary would completely upset me. I had a bad headache nearly all the time and at times became so dizzy it was all I could do to keep from falling. I had lost so much weight and was in such a badly run-down condition I had to lay off from work for two or three days at a time quite often, and just before I started taking. Tanlac I had

come to the conclusion I would have to quit work entirely as I could hardly get about at all I was so weak. "I had spent hundreds of dollars for different treatments and medicines, but ione of them did me any good, and I had just about lost faith in all medicines, but as I had seen so much praise of Tanlac by people who had

been benefited by it I decided to give it a trial. Well, you can imagine my surprise when I began to get better while taking the first bottle. I continued taking it, until today I am a well man and all ray troubles are gone. My appetite is good and I can eat anything I want without any bad after effects, and my nerves are in perfect condition. I have recommended Tanlac to any number of friends and acquaintances and they all praise it as much as I do, and that is saying a great deal, for I think it Is the grandest medicine on earth." Tanlac is sold in Richmond by Clem Thlstlethwaite, in Greensfork by C. D. Corine, in Cambridge City by Mr. Dean House, in Pershing by Sourb'eer & Rodenberg, in Centerville by Centerville.

i i Woman Is As Old As She Looks

No woman wants to look old. Many in their effort to look youthful resort to the "beauty doctor." Their mistake is that they visit the wrong department in the drug store. Beauty depends upon health. Worry, sleepless nights, headaches, pains, disorders, irregularities and weakness of a distinctly feminine character jn a short time bring the dull eye, - the "crow's feet," the haggard look, drooping shoulders, and the

faltenngstep. To retain the appearance of youth you must retain health. Instead of lotions, powders and paints, ask your druggist for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. This famous medicine strikes at the very root of these enemies of your youthful appearance. It makes you not only look young but feel young. It overcomes the weakness and builds you up. Your druggist can supply you with liquid or tablets; or send ten one-cent stamps to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., and a trial pkg. of the tablets will be mailed to you. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has been in use 50 years. If you wish to know all about yourself, drop a line to Dr. Pierce for free pamphlet on Diseases of Women. Should you desire to consult his medical staff of physicians or ask for information, the same will be cheerfully furnished you wholly without cost and your letter will be treated as sacredly confidential.
