delegates decided at their meeting
Yesterday afternoon to sanction
league cross-country championship
race, the same to be held on the Sat
urday before Thanksgiving Day.
They proposed to donate cup to the
winning team in addition to medals
to the individual runners. For the
first time in some wears all four OF
the schools in the league will be rep
resented by barriers. The chair ap-
pointed Schwarzkopf. of East Orange
(chairman), Smith, of Stevens; Kirk
patrick. of Montclair, and De Pue, of
Barringer, as a committee to select
a course for the race. Hockey re-
ceiyed added stimulus when three

Central Class Games.

Entries for the first annual inter
class games of Central High School
are to close on Friday. From the
present viewpoint, considering the
great interest manifested in the
games by the students at the Wiener
institution. the games will be huge
success. Anderson has managed to
keep the mile and half-mile distance
events off the program for the day,
in order ethat the cross-country men
may continue with the work of the
hill and dale squad. The Central
coach announced yesterday afternoon
that none of the entrants will be per-
mitted to participate in the games
unless they are members of the High
School Athletic Association. This
move will be quite source of rev.
enue to the A. A. as there are over
900 boys entered.

for 40 marks.

the increasing value of the cabinet

Had he offered 40 marks the Joiner
would have let him have 1t without a
moments hesitation.
Herr Lehman said he might drop in
again In day or two, and on his way
home he thought the matter over.
The thing cost more than he had
expected, and. of course. he could very
well do without it. but one must try
to keep step with ones friends, and

ed him letter calling on him to ex-
| tend the time and increase the
amounts of the "crop moving de-
| posits,' and to place these deposits
with the banks that are serving the
farmers? Rather does it not show
that the Farmers Union committee
was right in September when it
stated that December 18th was too
early to make recalls and that the re-
strictions and complications prevented
the local banks from participating in
the deposits and thus granting relief
to their customers.
If the banks are "to proceed with
perfect safety" in granting of accom-
modations to their customers in the
normal and usual way, they must be
able to deal directly with the treas
ury If the large available resources at
it's command are tobe made avail
able to the banks. The committee Of
the union took that position in the
interview with the president and sec
rotary in September. That nothing
came OF it is due to the general pros
perity that came from 13 and IA cents
cotton and the refusal Of bankers 20
join with the union in protests to the
secretary.
With cotton declining every day
with no other just reason than cur
rcncy uncertainty, it is time for ac-'
ton. The trade may give all sorts
of reasons about good weather and a
big crop resulting. They know that
the October 18th and 10Th frosts ef-
fectually put stop to a big crop and
the good weather since has just en-
abled the farmers to pick the crop
more rapidly than usual. 1t looks
like nothing but low prices for cot
ton will bring the farmers together.
Is the decline sufficient to. bring out
full attendance at the county union
meeting on Friday? Or will the
members Of the union wait for still
further declines before they get to-
gether to plan for relief?

The adaptation Of production to the
labor available in a community to
the markets of that community, to the
building up of that community, is
a job for community effort that de-
mands our most serious considera-
ton. And there must be an honest
effort in the local unions to meet this
question and solve it before much
progress can be made in other import
ant improvements in farm life. SO
far as 1 know, it has been absolutely
ignored, but if not studied between
now and next May many "a fond dream
of the farmers and the business men
