In the home the duty of a trvtf citizen Is to see that the -premises nt? kept entirely clean, yard grass pla^fc ed, and flower garden* (d arranged tm l>eaatify the home.

And fi nally yon see from the food example of on* man there originate* thousands and thousand* of true citizens and .a stronger desire for beauty. The spirit of beautifying1 does not only apply to community life; but from the community the antbltlous spirits of cltisens more on into a town and spreads from there through tho whole universe. By passing a block In town and Just by the appearance of the houses, streets, and surroundings you quickly tell whether or not they who dwells there are good cltisens or not. Another thing that the citizen must avoid Is the destroying of nature. Na ture can create a lots more attractive place than man so why does man want to do away with nature t.nd put some of his own constructions In .-is place. Of course some cases are unavold. able, and yet ? there are lots and lots of cases where the destruction of n.other nature can be avoided, and It Is our duty, as citizens to see that It Is avoided. A citizen must also bolp his coun try by being a law abldmg citizen and helping to prosecute those who are not law abiding. He of course must ktow fully the laws and amendment] of his country In order to abide by and crrry them out. It Is his duty to pic ture to each person the nead of hav ing a clean country since we are a free nation. The citizen must also look after avoiding waste. This also must start in the household. Some people do not-Beem to realize that the great clouds of smoke which rises up from great factories dally can be averted Into energy. It can be and it is our duty to help to do It. I believe there is more .waste in public money in the United States than Is necessary. We too can prevent this to a certain ex tent. We, as citizens must rove s.nd honor cur native land. We must help to better it: stand up for It, and never allow bad things to be sala about it. We should strive to carry out our parts and doing our duties just as uear as its possible for us to. Lavoisier Chemical Society Making Vinegar in the Home (By Boone Sy*es> The process by which Vinegar ' 1s made in the home should be under stood by every member of the family. 01 course Vinegar has ?>een known from the earliest historical period. And the Romans gave it the name "tplrltus veneris" but they did not un. derstpnd the fermentqt4?p that com mon apple cider undergoes before it becomes Vinegar. There are two Important changes that take place in the fermentation. 1. The sugar in the sweet cider undergoes alcoholic fermentation, which turns the sweet cider to hard cider. And the cider then contains from 4 to 8 per cent alcohol. The cider should be in a w^gden barrel and some means shouldbe provided by which air can get to the cider, yet it should be bo fixed that no insects tan get to the cider. It generally takes from ten to twenty days for this process to take place, and for the hard cider to contain the given amount of alcohol. 2. After the alcoholic fermenta tion Is completed, acetic bacteria be. gins to grow and changes tne alcohol Into acetic acid, or vinegar. That Is by the combination of oxygen in the air and alcohol that this acid is form ed, which has been given the name ncetlc acid. This acid glve3 the vin egar most of its sour taste. These bacteria grow on the surface of the liquid and form film or scum called the mother of vinegar. Alter this process the mother of tae vinegar is ready to keep the vinegar strong and ready for use. MBS, "BEBT" CABB Mrs. "Bert" Carr, nee Miss Sarah Sledge, daughter of Sherrod Sledge, after being the victim of pneumonia for only a few hour/, passed to her eternal reward on Jan. 11, 1923.
