MEMBERS CHEER SHUT-IN WOODMAN Nine members of Hardin Camp No. 857, Woodmen of the World, last Saturday evening went to the horne_of_ Thomas L. Whit - ledge, a memliertf the Tocat camp, who, for several days had been laid up with rheumatism. The visit of his neighbors of woodcraft was a complete sur- prise to him and cheered him immensely. As he said after- wards, the visit of these mem- bers of his Camp proved more beneficial to him than all the medicine he had taken. Before leaving for their homes, the messengers of mercy were served a bountiful supper by Mrs. Whitledge. The piece de resistitance was a large cake, in which was imbedded a silver half dollar, which almost choked E. C. Dick, who was fortunate enough to receive the lucky slice.

Guest My dad and I, long years ago, were walking down the street, When suddenly a little dog came yelping round our feet. He snapped and snarled so viciously—that angrY, little pup Appeared to me, as though he thought that he could eat us up: I turned and threw some stones at him which always missed the mark. But when I tried to drive him off, the louder he would bark. \Now. Son,\ my father said to me, \just plod along your way; Don't turn your bead for yelping dogs. Remember what I say! You'll notice if you pay no heed to him and hold your peace, That little dog will soon grow tired and all his noise will cease. . But every time you stamp your foot SW - shout to him: 'Begone', You show that he's annoying you and keep him following on. It takes a dog to fight a dog! Post that above yourself! When canines come and snarl at you, don't be a dog yourself. And later, when you've older grown, and petty men attack, Don't stoop to pick up stones to throw, don't try to answer back, Just walk right on and pay no heed to anything they say, And very soon they'll give it up and turn and run away. It is a very ancient dodge these petty minds employ. They say the gods first angry make the man they would destroy, And little dogs and little men who snarl behind your back Will only snarl the louder if you answer their attack; And they'll have done the very thing they 'darted out to do. If, being yellow dogs themselves, they make one out of you! -40•••••••••111.11.4-40-4.••••••••••••••••••.* DR,COGSWELL, SECRETARY STATE BOARD HEALTH, BOOSTS HARDIN SCHOOL WORK Dr. W. F. Cogswell, secretary of the state board of health, ar- rived in Hardin Tuesday morn- ing from Helena and spent two days here looking into the health work that is being done in the public schools by Dr. W. A. Russell, county and school health officer. In an interview with the editor of the Tribune - Herald Dr. Cogswell stated that he considers that Big Hor ii county has done more advanced health work in the examination of school children than any other county in Montana; that Dr. Russell was the first county health officer to start this work and 1,111E - 16 - ifertalty has done the work thoroughly and well. Dr. Cogswell spent most of Tuesday in the Hardin schools looking over the system. lie spoke very enthusiastically re- garding the work that is being done. He witnessed the physi- cal examination of the children by Dr. Russell and was pleased to note that, as a result of pre- vious examinations, physical de- fects in a number of the pupils have been corrected. The visiting doctor said that Hardin is to be congratulated on its splenlid school buildings and equipment and the fact that it has such a fine bunch of en- thusiastic and capable teachers. \The Hardin plan in vogue in the grade schools, which I under- stand is a modification of the 'Dalton plan,' appears to me to be the most sensible system of Instruction that I have ever come in contact with,\ said Dr. Cogs- well. The primary object of the ADVISES FARMERS USE CERTIFIED SEED A. J. Ogaard, state agronomist with the Montana extension ser- vice of the Montana State Col- lege at Bozeman, spent Monday and Tuesday at Hardin. With L. T. Winslow, marketing agent; Mies Martha L.
