MELODY
SLIGHT CASE OF MURDER
SHORT
AT 94 SHE GETS
FIRST TRIP IN AIR
Malone, N. Y.—Mrs. Liza
McGee, 94, went for her first
airplane ride yesterday in
company with her 39-year-old
husband and a 70-year-old son
by a previou marriage.
“I liked it fine,” she said.
The occasion was the dedi-
cation of a new airport admin-
istration building.
Be Honest With Yourself
How easily do we all fall in-
to the trap of deceiving our-
selves. Ordinarily honest men,
who would not lie to others,
are often guilty of little lies to
themselves. _.i
There is the man who blames
everybody but himself because
he has not succeeded in life.
He blames our system of so-
ciety and our form of govern-
ment. He blames his bad
luck. He thinks that all those
who have outstripped him in
the race for fame or riches
have somehow been unfair in
their playing of the game. He
overlooks the cause of all his
troubles—himself.
The man who is always in a
row with his neighbors thinks
he would get along all right if
he could move away. He of-
ten finds in his new location
the same kind of neighbors he
left behind—because he has
not changed himself and peo-
ple react just the same.
The conceited egotist with
bis never ending monologue of
L my, me and mine, would be
the last to admit that --he is
selfish. It has been said that
a bore is somebody who won’t
let you talk about yourself be-
cause he monopolizes the con-
versation talking about him.
seif.
The farmer who kicks about
taxes but wants crop subsidies
paid by other taxpayers, and
the chamber of commerce
which declares against govern-
ment extravagance but wants
its pet project financed at pub-
lic expense, are often unaware
of their inconsistency.
The hypocrite who sings
loud, prays long, and shakes
hands piously at the church on
Sunday, and is a crook in busi-
ness on weekdays, is not fool-
ing anybody but himself. The
community knows him for
what he is."
As an employe do you al-
ways have friction in the of-
fice? You blame everybody
but the right one—the person
you look at in the mirror in
the morning.
We all know the type of
businessman who basks in the
glory of newspaper publicity
inspired by his own hired
press agent or bought with his
advertising and persuades
himself that he is really a
great man, amid the plaudits
of hi3 “yes” men. As John
Bright said, he is a “self-made
man who worships his crea-
tor.”
The Romans used to honor a
returning conqueror with a pa-
rade headed by the hero rid-
ing in a chariot. But riding
with him was a slave who
Whispered to him as the peo-
ple cheered: “Remember thou
art but a man.” AU'the pla-
ques, scrolls, resolutions, and
awards a man ever gets cannot
still the voice of conscience in
the quiet watches of the night,
when the shade of murdered
self-respect stalks like Ham-
let’s father's ghost.
Don’t “kid” yourself. Don’t
take yourself too seriously. But
as Phillips Brooks said:
“Count thy highest moments
thy truest self.”
—Hubert M. Harrison.

tables leses its flavor and food

dressing just before serving in

superphosphate the following

was secured and almost 3 tons
of hay was harvested that
year. Since then, the stand
has continually decreased in
intensity. In the fall of 1948,
1000 pounds superphosphate
was applied but the sericea
did not respond to the heavy
application of phosphate. An
analysis of the soil was made
which showed a need for 50
units of potash, 12 units of ni-
trogen and 2,000 pounds of
limestone. i
P. O. Caldwell reports a
similar condition with his 4-
year-old stand of sericea le«-
pedeza, and a recent soil
analysis of the area indicated
a need for 60 units of potash.

Sericea Lespedeza Meadows
Some sericea
meadows in the Shelby-Pauoia
Soil Conservation District have
done exceptionally well. wh*!e
others have decreased in inten-
sity of stand and vigor of
growth.
L. C. Smith seeded approxi-
mately 40 acres of sericea les-
pedeza on his farm in the
Brady conservation group in
the spring of 1946. This mea-
dow was fertilized with super-
phosphate at the time of plant-
ing. A fair stand was obtain-
ed the first year, but did not
seem to thicken the following
spring. Mr. Smith applied 500
pounds of lime and $200
pounds of 0-14-7 fertilizer in
the spring of 1947, and grazed
the area as a part of the pas-
ture. He has continued to ap-
ply 200 pounds of 0-14-7 each
spring since and now has a
