Editor aml Publisher Office Phone 4 — Home Phone 994 THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 1935 r MAIN STREET WHITT LINGS What to do about the dust storms which are destroying farm land and crops seems to be a matter of speculation with not many agreeing as to what really should be done to stop them. Some claim that the tree belt which has been started will prevent dust storms, others that intensive cultivation and grazing of the land > will have to be prohibited as these two things are destroying the grass, and others say that the land will have to be terraced and wind breaks developed before dust storms will cease. But will any of these bring rain and stop the wind from blowing? Scientists claim that this is not the first time that the wind has blown the top soil off the western states. They point to the loess deposits or soil deposited by wind in Illinois and Missouri and say that was caused by wind carrying soil from the western states and depositing it, If their theory is true, intense cultivation and grazing had nothing to do with dust storms* for when these loess deposits were formed there was no grazing or cultivation in America, or for that matter, in the world. Probably the stopping of grazing and cultivation and the planting of trees and grass will diminish the effects of the storm and should be done for that reason, but how they will cause rain, or abate the wind is not proven—and extreme dryness and wind, everyone admits, is really the contributing cause of a dust 'storm. e Weather experts say that there are so many factors that cause changes in weather that weather forecasting is still a guess, and they have been collecting data for years on every conceivable factor that cause rain, wind, snow, sleet, fog, storms, cyclones, and clouds. Sun spots, thepolar front, seven year cycles, fourteen year cycles, the mountains, the inclination of the earth, and the distance of the earth to the Sun have all been studied by hard headed men, and they admit that they don’t even knew for sure how lightning, rain, or thunder are formed or brought about. So it seems rather preposterous to state that by doing sqch and such a thing dust storms will cease. At a dinnner in Washington given by newspaper men many personages of distinction were introduced and given a welcome. But the biggest ovation was given to the minister of Finland. In fact he was the lion of the day. His country had paid its debt and he was his country’s representative. Who says that honest and square dealing is not apprecited oven between nations. What holiday are we celebrating —Easter or Christmas, with this wintery weather? q JOINES RIFLE CLUB. SPRINGFIELD, 0.,— Wm. Osborn, South Huntington street, Syracuse, is a Charter member of the Wittenberg College Rifle Club which was organised here last week. = Approximately 100 men and 26 women students became members of the club at its initial meeting March 26.

; | LITERARY LORE By Bessie Witherel Ballard , I : —I Good Afternoon! j “I see the battle-fields of earth, ■ Grass grows green upon them.” —Walt Whitman “The Grass Grows Green,” by Hortense Lion, published April 2nd, Houghton Mifflin Company, $2.50, is sure to become one of this Spring’s I outstanding books. It is a protest against War; and paints a drastic • picture of the hope of all intelligent ; people, that the time will come when | “upon the battle-fields of earth,” ! the grass will grow green, forever; thus, conforming to the sentiments iof this Easter season: “Peace on • Earth; good will toward men.” ! “The Grass Grows Green” tells the story of a Bavarian family who left ; the “blood-soaked soil” of Europe in the middle of the last century to seek peace and happiness in the New World. Berthold Willmarck, his wife, Hannna, their sons and daughter, Frieda, the heroines of the story, are well-drawn characters not likely to be forgotten. The enforced j eight years of military training and service in the Bavarian army descended upon the Willmarck family; taking their sons as soon as they reached their twenty-first birthdays; and killing the next to the youngest boy, together with Erick Bauer, Frieda’s fiance. As they completed their army service, the older Willmarck sons returned home; some to marry and settle down in Bavaria, others leaving to try their fortune in America. When Siegfried was twenty years old, his parents sent him to his brother in New York; thereby hoping to save him from the horrors of war. Frieda, who had never ceased to mourn Erick’s death, accompanied her brother. A graphic account of the perilous seventydays wind-jammer voyage across the Atlantic is given. Then follows a powerful description of their lives throughout the years between 18501917; stories of the Civil War; the Spanish War, and the entrance into the Great War. I Throughout the story runs an interesting account of Frieda’s life; in the declining years of which we find her widowed and living in the home of her daugther. But the grass is not yet growing green on the battlefields. At the close of the book, Frieda’s youngest and favorite grand son is celebrating his twenty-first birthday. It is the month of April in the year 1917; the United States has entered the World War; and Alan, the beloved grandson, has enlisted! thus recalling the old proverb, “That which I most feared has come upon me.” There seems to be a distinctly up- ; ward trend in the new books of today. Many of them deserve to be

“SELF MEDICATION WITH DRUG LAXATIVES HARMFUL TO US” — - Say Scientistt The habitual use erf habit-forming drugs is deplored by medical men in all parts erf the country. It bus been pointed out that such drugs can be safely taken only upon the advice of a physician and as prescribed fyt definite cases. Selffrequently does more harm than good.
