Around China there is a great wal built to protect her weak and 1 cower ing subjects and which . stands today the representative of the "effectua harries against the benign influences of the civilizations around them. Thus the girl of iChina is hound by super­ stition, ignorance, and idolatry.

BENDURE, SPRINGFIELD'S DAYLIGHT ancestors; During a ll, the years • o f man's existence lie .has. changed little in his structure and manner o f thought. -His general knowledge and intelligence through all these, years have gradually increased and its dif­ fusion is broader among the masses, The mental powers of the human family have, been developed a t differ­ ent rates and in different directions. The brains of some have been so de­ veloped that they are a.source of ele­ vation and intelligence, while others' are a source of evil and degradation. This is not because the mental capac­ ities of the one are greater than the other* I t is the result of a different mental training. Every man and woman should favor hia age. with new ideas and new thoughts, with thoughts that shall live though empires fall and language dies. Thoughts which are ever more repeated and reflected along the ages. Such persons live not for the little span of time allotted them in this world, bu t for eternity, Such persons raise the world to higher degree of civilization and intelligence. Such lives are virtuous, noble and ijotHike.” ................... Wastes of Society” by Miss Fanny Iliff, Was divided into three divisions. Waste of time, talents and opportun­ ities* “ We may not rise so high, bu t we can step higher than our present; position, Ho t until we recognize :h.ese Wastes and resolve to use all we possess and can attain to for the good o f fellow man cah we hope to take the place in human life to which we may aspire, and then will we have fulfilled in ourselves Shakespear’a es­ timate of life; The most lives who think most; feels the noblest; acts the b e st” Miss Iliff conveyed sortie im­ portant thoughts in her oration, which was clothed in tho simplest language. Mr. Ralph LeValley dealt with ‘Tackle tho Possible.” A synopsis gives the following: “ We should make use of tho chance that presents itself today, lotting tho impossible of tomorrow remain in tho distant fu­ ture, History, the romance of the ages, presents on its blood-stained pages, the rise and fall of men who ie entered the Russian Domain ne'er returned. ■Its whitening bones mark­ ed hiB retreat on Russia’s frozen ilains, Waterloo was his downfall and Elba the limits of his once vast domains. Hannibal was a general of a type the world has few to boast. Ie crossed the Alps into Italy, crushed two Roman armies and by so doing won everlasting fame. But he failed to follow the advantages of these victories.. Men of today show the same spirit, though in different ways, and in all we find success liesin the amount o f discretion used in tack­ ing the possible.” The patriotic oration of the even­ ing was given by Roy McFarland in American Supremacy,” He dealt with the life of the American boy as to opportunities and the use made o f them. America will be a .dominant factor id the Universal affairs a state­ ment not a mere assertion of national egotism and fully demostrated by the fact that each trucly American citi­ zen firmly and honestly believes in its realization. Today we are the most tnfluencial nation of the globe. Although a t present, our navy rank! third with the world, we are able to Command the respect and recognition of every other power and the day is approaching, when, beneath our glor­ ious constitution, shall **»t the con­ dition of universal brotherhood, and all nations alike shall bow in humble­ ness at the feet of the Goddess of Lib­ erty, to the glory of the Stars and Stripes. Then shall come to pass Burkes eloquent prophecy of Amer­ ica and we shall enter upon the tran­ quil calm of “ American ■'Supremacy,” The simple language and beautiful thoughts of Miss Clara Mitchell, in treating “ The Land of Dreams,” made an 0 atiori worthy of comment, She emphasized the fact that not only are there dreams in youth but all through life. The young man dreariis of success rind his triumphal return to the nftsene of hia boyhood, much to tho chagrin of his enemies.

The article read as fob lows; Many a' beautiful cow hns been granted with the title of Lady. The history of the English show yard and breed herd record more than one Lady of fame, among which might be mentioned Lady Fragrant, Lady in Waiting, Grand Lady, Lady Sarah and Red L ad y ,’ while in America Lady Charming,. Lady Blushcoat, Lady Superior and yet others are among the elect. On this side of the Atlantic, however, no individual o f the bovine race is better entitled to this name than the Aberdaen-Atigus cow, Lady of Meadowbrook 21466. " Lady of Meadowbrook 21466 was bred by D. Bradfute & Son, Meadow­ brook farm, Cedarville, Greene Co., Ohio, and was calved on Dec. 9,1904. Her sire was Zaire 2th 13067, a son of the well-known Black Abbot 10423, Zaire 5th for some ten years Was a prominent prize winner a t the great shows in the United States and has repeatedly been referred to as one of the greatest of the modern Bhdw and breeding Angits.hulls, for he has sired many most excellent animals. He was abort o f leg; broad of back, square and full both in front and behind, and was heavily fleshed when in g^od condition. A t th;s writing, early in 1904, Zaire 5th is still in act- tive service in an Ohio herd a t the age of 16 years. The dam of Lady was Lavender- of Meadowbrook 16697, a cow of much merit that won many prizes, includ­ ing first in aged class at the Ohio and Illinois state fairs in 1898, As a 5-year-old she weighed 1900 pounds and possessed a beautiful front, unusually fine top and bottom lines, with a wealth of flesh smoothly laid on* She was know on the circuit as an extra fine cow.
