BIRD DAY, FIFTH OF MAY.
| U. S. Commissioner of Education Favors
Audubon’s Birthuay for National Cele
j bration.
Washington, April 9, 1917. “Bird
day, fifth of May” will be the slogan
repeated by thousands of school children
throughout the country if the birthday
! of John James Audubon is made national
bird day, as has been suggested by Dr.
Philander P. Claxton, United States Com
missioner of Education, who says the
birthday of the noted naturalist is the
most appropriate day for the celebra
tion. As the event will be largely a
school affair, it is expected that many
governors will name May 5th in appoint
ing a Bird Day, this year.

ing the celebration of Bird Day on Audu
bon’s birthday and officers of this bird
protective organization say that their
Junior members, as the youthful mem
bers in the schools of the country are
called, will celebrate the day nationally.
So far in the current school year the
Audubon societies say they have enrolled
more than 60,000 Junior members and in
the six years since the Junior work start
ed 650,000 have enrolled. This member
ship is sufficiently large and widely scat
tered to give a national character to the
celebration.
The suggestion of Audubon’s birthday
for the celebration is favored by Dr.
Claxton though he has no authority to
call for a nation-wide o servance of the
day.

A CITY MAN’S DREAM.
In the garden I would stroll
Knocking squashes with a pole.
Snipping parsnips from the tree,
Digging up the salsify.
Picking sweet corn from the vine
Is a pleasant dream of mine.
’Round the garden I would walk
Nipping turnips from the stalk.
Never gardened in my life,
But 1 often tell my wife
That a garden is a boon
And I hope to have one soon.

For Tired Women
* With Aching Heads
“They help me so much and I find
relief as soon as I begin taking your
Foley Kidney Pills.” Mrs. Frank P.
.Wood, Morrill, Maine, K. F. D. No. 2.

once on Foley Kidney Pills, v
They strengthen the weak, ailing
kidneys, improve their action, enable
them to throw off the poisons that
cause your trouble. Your nerves grow
peaceful, sleep becomes sounder, nerv
ous headaches disappear. As Mrs.
Wood says: “I find relief as soon as I
5?©gi" to take your Foley Kidney
Pills. # Be sure you get the genuino
1 oley Kidney Pills, for they are

IN PATRIOTISM
Chicago's Mayor Starts Chair
la Lincoln University.
STUDENTS TRUE AMERICANS
New York City.--For the first time in
the history of American education a
chair has been established for the
teaching of American Patriotism. In
spired by the work being done by the
Lincoln Memorial university, William
Hale Thompson, mayor of Chicago,
will provide $25,000 for this purpose.
The students of the university have
already volunteered their services to
the United States for war, and as
they are from the hardiest stock of
mountaineers, from which 150,000 men
were recruited to fight the battles of
the union, their offer has been favor
ably received by the government.

announced the offer of Mayor Thomp
son.
Plans have already been made for
opening the Patriotism Department.
The university was established by
General O. O. Howard at the sugges
tion of Abraham Lincoln himself. The
institution how stands as a living mon
ument to the immortal rail splitter.
Illiterate youthful mountaineers have
been knowii to walk over a hundred
miles with their goods and chattels
tied up in a bandanna handkerchief to
be “edicated” at the university where
rudimentary as well as the highest j
branches of learning are taught.
These people are of the pure Ameri

American history—Admiral Farragut. \

already been provided. On Lincoln s
birthday next a celebration will be
held at Cumberland Gap, at which a
trainload of prominent visitors from
all parts of the country will commem
orate the closing of the fund. It was
on a similar occasion last Feb. 12 that
Mayor Thompson was present witli
600 other distinguished guests.
The following were recently elected
trustees of the endowment fund: Marcus
M. Marks, president of the borough of
Manhattan. New York city; Jacob M.
Dickinson, former secretary of war;
Samuel P. Avery of Hartford. Conn.;
A. L. Garford of Elyria, O.; Tlieo
dore E. Burton, former senator from
Ohio, now president of the Merchants'
National bank of New York, who has
been elected treasurer. He is receiving
Voluntary contributions from through
out the entire country. One recently
came from a soldier's widow saying.
“This mite is m.v tribute to Lincoln.’’
Every dollar contributed goes to the
endowment fund without cost of com
mission or any item of expense.
The Blood Is the Life.
_ The blood ie the life because it ie the nutri
tive fluid. If the blood becomes very impure,
the bonea, the muscles and other parts of the
body are impaired Bud finally become diseased
Slighter variations in the quality of the blood,
such as are often brought about by breathing
the bad air of unventilated rooms, have equal
ly aure though leas plain ill effects on the nerv
ous system.
Persons that have any reason to believe that
their blood is not pure should begin to take
Hood’s Sarsaparilla at once. This medicine
haa done more than any other in cleansing, en
riching and revitalizing the blood and giving
strength and tone to all the organs and func
tions.
If you want to be entirely satisfied, insist on
having Hood’s. Accept no substitute,

Hats off!
Along the street there comes
A. blare of bugles, a ruffle of drums,
A flash of color beneath the sky:
Hats off!

Blue and crimson and white it shines,
Over the steel-tipped, ordered lines.
Hats off!
rhe colors before us fly
But more than the flag is passing by.
Sea fights and land fights, grim and great,
Fought to make and to save the State:
Weary marches and sinking ships;
Bneera of victory on dying lips;
Diys of plenty and years of peace;
March of a strong land’s swift increase;
Equal justice, right and law,
skate ly honor and reverend awe;
Sign of a nation, great and strong
ro ward her people from foreign wrong:
Pride and glory and hcnor— all
Live in the colors to stand or fall.
Hate off!
Along the street there comes
A blare of bugles, a ruffle of drums:
And loyal hearts are beating high:
Hats off!
