MEYERSDALE COMMERCIAL, THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1929 | | MOTHER-MY-LOVE, if you'll give me your hand, | ti And go where I ask you to wander, I will lead you away to a beautiful land— to The Dreamland that’s waiting out yonder. We'll walk in a sweet-posie garden out there Where moonlight and starlight are streaming, And the flowers and birds are filling the air i | With fragrance and music of dreaming. There'll be no little tired-out boy to undress, No questians or cares to perplex you; | There'll be no little bruises or bumps to caress, | Nor patching of stockings to vex you. For I'll rock you away on a silver-dew stream, And sing you asleep when you're weary, | 1 And no one shall know of our beautiful dream, | But you and your own little dearie. [ 1 And when I am tired I'll nestle my head Jn the bosom that’s soothed me so often, A song which our dreaming shall soften, | an And away through the starlight we’ll wander— \, Grand Jury Makes S Li other-My- love - | Report to bee | leave to submit the following report: | all the grounds and buildings in connec- the management and is realized.

About 30,000 Ringneck Eggs It is the hope of Superintendent Sines of the Jordan State Game Farm in Lawrehce County to secure a hatch of about 30,000 Ringneck Pheasant eggs this season. Of this number 12,000 will be allotted to the ‘various game refuges throughout the state; 3,000 will be shipped to the Fisher Game Farm in Montgomery County; 4,500 will be retained by Mr. Sines at the Jordan Farm, and the remainder will be distributed to sportsmen’s as- sociations , and others interested in rearing the birds.

The greatest trust that God has committed to His children ‘is that which is given to the mother of the household. She, more than all others, determines the moral worth and strength of our domestic and so- cial life. To her hands is given the incomparable privilege of shaping the characters of her children. The moral and spiritual ideals of the nation, as a whole, are largely determined by its mothers. The Savior’s Mother. Little as we know of that simple home in which the child Jesus was reared, sufficient is told us to indicate His mother’s influence as well as her understanding sympathy. She, above all others, discerned the high and holy purpose of His ministry. With pro- phetic instinct she saw from His earli- est days what no other eye could dis- cern.

There are 48 milch cows of the Holstein strain in the dairy barn, besides numerous other livestock. One cow produces 90 pounds of milk per day. Everything is perfectly sanitary in the dairy barn. The livestock and poultry exhibit would do credit to a se- lected county fair. The poultry farming is especially com- mendable. All hens are trap nested and there are more than 1000 hens. The eggs of about 200 hens being the best producers are used for hatching. Eventually through this culture the far- mers of the county will be enabled to buy surplus hens of the highest grade.

No—I think he would have been shooting the lights out of a sa- loon or rescuing a leather-skirted girl from the hands of the villainous fore- man of a rival ranch. It's too bad there isn’t a motion picture house up here.” He went his way, walking leisurely as a man with plenty of time. “He's angry because I didn’t thank him for his flower,” Caroline decided. “Well, as soon as he understands I do not wish biological surveyors bring- ing me posies, I will be better satis- fied. I can see plenty of men like him at home.” And when she returned to the cabin she said nothing to the Pot- ters of the man who had no place in her picture or scheme.
