i ! WAKE UP JIM- SOMEBODY'S AT THE_FRONT DOOR - SET HARD TASK FOR ARTIST Chin¢se Demand Absolutely Perfect Work From Man Entrusted With the Carving of Jade. The high standing of jade is no mod- ern thing. The primitive weights and measures of the Chinese world were couiputed from jade tubes, and the ear- liest bars or intervals of music known to that nation were determined by hol- low bamboo canes of accurate length, afierward made In jade tubes having stops within to be pulled out at the will of the player. The Spaniards and "the Mexicans have as great respect for the stone as the Chinese, and they make great use of It. The Chinese value their jade carvings so highly that they cannot often be prevailed upon to part with |¢ them. “When an unusually large piece of Jode is found In China, there is called 2 councll of artists fo determine into what shape it had best Le carved, as, owing to its extreme hardness, the form selected must follow somewhat the outline indicated by the natural formation of the specimen. The artist chosen to perform the delicate task is not altogether to be envied. It is true that if he succeeds he will be highly honored and re- warded, but success depends upon his work being approved after it has.been subjected to public criticism for a whole year. If, at the end of that time, his work should be condemned, his reputation as an artist is ir- retrievably lost. The task itself is no light one. With a thin piece of finely tempered brass wire, the artist may work for a week without having anything to show. Twenty years have not been considered too long for a single piece of carving. MENUS OF TOWN AND FARM Statistics Supplied by Department of Agriculture Reveal Rural Con. ditions Notably Satisfactory. ““How are the folks on the farm faring?” Is a question that is answered with a “Very well, thank you,” by the Department of Agriculture at Wash- ington. Looking into the average American farm method of living, the department finds that the farmers are as generously supplied with meat as wny other class of people, observes Gus Karger in the Cincinnati Times- Star. Strangely enough, they dowt use eggs as abundantly as the folks else- where, but they use more milk, even where there are fewer than the aver- age number of children. Except in Southern states, where “quick” breads ‘are often preferred, wheat bread is the staple. A relative- 1y large proportion of starchy vegeta- bles Is consumed and a relatively small quantity of the green and suc- culent kinds, In spite of the fact that farm families have the best opportun- itles for growing vegetables at home. The studies of the home economics division of the Department of Agricul- ture “bear out the general impres. sion,” the report states, that on the average the farmers’ families have an abundant dlet, with enough different kinde¢ of food to insure good health. Whether the food is well cooked and attractively served the studies do not show. The fact that almost twice as much cooking fat was used by the farm families as by the general aver- age indicates that farm housewives are inclined to cook too many foods by frying. The only recommendation is that it would be well for the farmers to use more eggs, more coarse cereals, and a greater iety of vegetables and fruits, especially more green vegetables, Parents’ Problems. Parents, as intended by nature, are the ultimate judges of their own sons, declares Good Housekeeping. They are the courts of last resort. They are the guardians, with the double re- spousibility of protection and guid- ance. They must not fail in the di- rection of growth. In order that per- eonal prejudice and constant contact may not warp their attitudes, the boy | must become to them a lahoratory problem. He must be analy: cover his hereditary, ph: tal and environmental constituents. His composition and the materials that enter into it, his actions and reac- tions. the thought-processes that go into the creation of his mental be- havior, the crystallization of habits of doing, feeling, and acting—all must be considered objectively, and controlled | during the devious process of boy- il DONT OPEN THE / % l | MAYBE ITS BURGLARS- DOOR- A MAN WAS KILLED THE OTHER CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT e “ THE BEMIDJI DATLY PIOREER 1 WANT TO GET SOME DIRECTIONS - . . i SORRY TO BOTHER YOu BUT WE'RE LOST—WHICH ONE OF THESE LEADS TO EUREHA -7 ROADS ps THOSE —!!

You will hear some tones that boom in the bass and some soft mellow tones that seem to curl around you or wander gently out into the air. You won't know where they come from, but the organist will tell you that they ire “wood tones” and he will explain that certain pipes of his Instrument are made of wood. The Amerlean Forestry Magazine tells us that the credit for finding the possibili- ties of wood for producing tones he- longs to a Philadelphian. When the roofs of the city were covered with shingles, Goftlleb Hittleberger lay awake one night and listened to the patter of the rain upon them. He noted a good many different sounds and from his study of them he worked out the wood pipes of the organ, Strained Music. The organist at Gloucester eathedrai declares that the present vogue of wenring hair over the enrs is responsi- ble for a lot of poor singing. IHis opinion is open to criticism, but it is generally admitted that it would be better If some singers wore the hair over thelr mouths Instead.—Eve {Lendon). | HUFFMAN & O'LEARY FURNITURE AND UNDERTAKING H.
