Carcassers Spread Infection. •
Carcasses of animals which die on the
farm should be destroyed or buried so
deep that other animals cannot get to
them. Failure, to dp this has often been
the, cause of much infection among stock.
The government recently made an
gation with tile view of deterlnjning
whether or not infection can be spread
in this manner. A farmer lost from 80
to 100'chickens which he-threw into his
hog pen. He also hauled the cleanings

Would Make This Nation Truly Great
Our national experience during the war
illustrated bow a gt’eat common purpose
released national ehergy. inspired forget
lulnes-s of persunal interests, and caused
iqeii to sacrifice inrljiyidual ambition and
to work withoiit limit for the achievement
of a common oblective. We are the same
people that we-were during the war. We
are. however, no longer working together
with the eagerness for national service
that marked our wgr-tiuie activities. The
reason for this is pint.that we have chang
ed as a people, nor because we have lost
our national spirit.'but rather because we
arc not apar of. a clearly defined single 1
objective whici inspires ail to co-ordinated
action and team p)ny for the common wel

The most comidete and dynamic state
lncnt of the ideals and objectives to which
this Nation is dedicated is found in the
preamble to the I'ftnstitution :

discovered that a Community Scire Card,
tad been found very effective in several
States, not only n stimulating local ini

communities for excellence in the c*sen

ing a truly American community spirit,
ami in improving conditions of re,■■•cation,
health, homes, schools, churches, business,
cud farms. The council, therefore, de
veloped a Community Score Card de
signed to serve as a reliable means of stim
ulating communities to evaluate their'
own successes and failures and thus to
discover bus themselves what they could
do to realize more fully the national ideals
and thus become better place* in which
to live. ’

President Cooliilge invited the govern
or* of the several States to take the ini
tiative in o.'gtt'mz’ng intercommunity com

to define the rule* of the game. As a
result of tin* oppeal, co-operating com

Inti rest In O n n,unity life Is K.cn
There is everywhere a profound devo
tion to American ideals and a deep la
tent in the relative standing among
i States and communities with regard to
American citizenship. This latent in
terest may be made netiri? through proper
■ leadership and through the wise use of
funds with which to stage intercommu
nity contests on such a scale as til com
mand general interest. 'Herein lives a
unique opportunity for great public serv
■ ice in this most fundamental matter of
• developing a citizenry hale ami eager to
carry on successfully thi# greatest of ex
periments in self-government
. But Leadership is Needed
• The Federal Council add the State com
anittees are without tuijdS'for the accom
-1 plishment of this purpose, but they be-
I Sieve that there are in every State many
citizens who are looking for an opportu
nity to contribute of their means for the
promotion of public welfare. They fur
ther believe that the score-card method of
building better citizenship in each parti
■ cujag. State, and therefore in the Nation,
is an. enterprise from wlich greater re
sults can be secured for less expenditure'
of time and money than in any other way.
By suitable prizes and effective publicity,
the energy of the. people can be released
in the direction of working spontaneously
1 together, to express the ideals of America
n better citizenship as defined in the Oom
• munity Score Cagd.

ray'near Morehead City. N. C. The fish,
which weighed J. 20 pounds, was presented

NOT GUILTY—A PACK OF CARDS
A Soldier Proves That It Contains a Bi
ble, an Almanac and a Common Pray
er Beall.
A private soldier by the name of Rich
ard I*‘e was taken before the magistrate
of Glasgow, Scotland, for playing cards
during divine services.
A sergeant commanded the soldiers at
the church, and when the' person had
read the prayers he 'took the text. Those
■ who had Bibles took them out, but this
■ soldier had neither Bible • nor common
prayer bool;, and pulling out a pack of
1 cards, he spread them out before him. He
first locked at one card and then another.
The sergeant of one company saw him.
and said;
; “Richard, put up the cards. This is
• no place for them,”
“Never mind that.” said Richurdll
When the services were over a <: pasta- /
hie took Richard prisoner and brought
him before the magistrate.
“Well,” r said the magistrate, "what
have brought the. sokliet for?” ....
“For playing cards in church.”
“Well, soldier, what have you to say
: for yourself?”
1 “Much, sir, I hope.”
“Very good. If not I will punish
: you severely.”
"I have been," said the soldier, “al
, most six weeks on the march. I have
neither Bible nor common prayer book. I
1 have nothing but a pack of cards, and I
hope to satisfy your worship of the pur
ity of my intention.” ' :
1 Then, spreading the cards before the
began with the ace:
“When I fee the aee. it reminds me that
' there is butjene God.
“When I see the deuce, it reminds mei
of the Father and Son.
' “When I see the trey, it reminds me of
the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
“When I sec the four, it reminds me of
I the four evangelists that preached—Mat
thew. Mark, Luke and John.
. “When I see the rive, it reminds me of
■ the wise virgins that trimmed their
: lamps; there were ten. but five were wise
and live were foolish, and were shut out.
“\Vhen I see the six, it reminds me.
that in six days the Lord made heaven
and earth.
“When I see the seven, it reminds me
that on tlie seventh day God rested from
the great work He had made and hallow
ed it,
“When I see the eighth, it reminds mei
of the eight righteous persons, who were
sayed when God destroyed the world, viz.:
Noah and his wife, his three sons and
their wives, -s
“When I see tire nine, it reminds me of
the nine lepers that , were cleansed by our
Saviour: there were nine of them that nc
turned thanks.
“When I see the leu, it reminds me of
the Ten Commandments which God hand
ed down to Moses on the tables of stone.
“When I see the king, it reminds me of
the great King of heaven. God Almighty
“When I see the queen it reminds me
of the Queen of Sheba, who visited Sol
omon, for she was as wise a woman as' he
was a man. She brought with her fifty
boys and girls, all dressede in boys’ ap
parel, for King Solomon to tell which 1
were boys and which weVe girls. The
King sent for water for them to wash. <
The girls washed to the elboys, the boys !
to tbe wrists. So King Solomon told by (
that.”
“Well,” said tbe magistrate “you have i
described every card in tbe pack except (
one.” \
“What is that?” i
“The knave,” said the magistrate. ]
“I will give your honor a description ]
of that too, if you will not be angry.” t
“I will not,” said the magistrate, “if j
. you do not term me to be tbe knave.”
“The greatest knave I know is the con
stable who has brought roe here.”
"I do not know,” said the magistrate, *
"if he is the greatest knave, but I know ]
be is the greatest fool.” j
“When I count how many spots there j
are in a pack of cards, I find 365, as I
many as thei-e days iu the year. When I J
count the number of cards in a pack I !
tied 52—the number of weeks in u year. <

. Tlie Dollar Bill 'Popular' Currency
The ever growing popularity of, the
dollar bill has become a prob'em to
treasury officials. The government at
Washington is faced with the necessi
ty -of-either greatly expanding the ca
pacity of its printing plant to meet the
public demand for circulation of the
lihit of paper currency or inducing the
public to be more economical in its use.
Just why there is such a demand
for the dollar bill that its circu’ation
has increased more than seven times
since 1909 a,nd exactly three times since
1910, is a puzzle which Assistant Secre
tary Dewey has started out to solve.
He hopes by the study to find means
of obtaining a more sparhug usp of it.
The big' plant bureau of engraving
'bud printing, built in 1914 with, the ex
pectation that it would meet the na
tion's demand, was forced in March to,
deliver to the United States (ji-easiupn
87,824.000 one dollar bills to keep
with the pub’re demand for them. To
visualize : the bulk of thi« job the bills
weigh approximately 113,472 pounds.
One of the chief diffieuties' is that
the capacity' of rIW plnnt Is so pressed
by' tbe demand that the bills have to
be 'put in ctvcklation as “green" money
fresh from the press and with out op
portunity to “cure" so they will stand
the rough usage they g?\ Just’now . the
average life ■of the bills being put in
circulation is only about four months,
although treasury officials have been en
deavoring to increase that span over
since the war.
The treasury has tried to meet the
problem and give the big engraving bu
reau time to catch its breath and store
up. a few million hills for the “curing”
process by restoring the silver dollar to
popularity, but thus far the public have
frowned on tbe "Veart. whell.” Efforts
to •, restore it to oirch’ntion in tiny, sub
stantial volume have been fruitless. It.
is ostpuated that if. 40.000,000 silver
dollars could be placed in circulation
the money asviug in paper money would
run into thousands of dollars annually.
“Eunice says she is the uni pokiest
girl in the world.” ' " 1
“What’s the matter now?”
“She was just about to marry a
traveling man when jie was admitted to
the firm, and now be at home
all the time.”
