Secretary Henry w. Tibbits was in charge of the arrangements for the dinner.
 President Macpherson called upon Ebenezer Allen to say grace, and in his opening remarks at the dinner dwelt upon the urgent necessity of building new industrial building here which he said he felt sure was going to be accomplished.

By Practising Economy You Can Buy Future Independence
By JOHN P. FALLON

Every time you practise econ omy, whether in the purchase of spool of cotton at a penny less than usual. or in the buying of a home at the right time and in the right place. you are buying independence for yourself.
 Save penny here and a dollar there and the foundation for your future independence will be safe ly laid.
 One of the best and quickest ways to secure independence through economy is to read the advertisements in THE BUILE- TIN every day. They tell you how to get the full value for your money, when you can buy most economically. where you can se- cure the things you need at the lowest prices.
 Follow the advertisements in THE BULLETIN carefully and constantly so you will be able to purchase everything you buy most economically.

EXPRESSION OF THANKS.

The Business Mems Association by
giving the Boy Scouts seven pairs of
rubber boots have shown very sub
stantially their interest in the well
fare of the men and boys who give
their best efforts, voluntarily, to the
safety of lives and property in
Honesdale. The gift, coming un-
solicited, is greatly appreciated by
the Scouts.
When the Troop was first organ
zed the Scout Master felt that the
boys might be of service at fires by
looking after the comfort of firemen
At the Rief-Spettigue fire Chief Oday,
recognizing the value of organized re-
lief work, called on them to assist in
many ways. Not to do the work Of
firemen but to look after their in
terests. That night and at every
fire of consequence since, the Scouts
have not only carried coffee and
sandwiches but have been generally
useful as errand boys.
The Scout Master and Scouts are
under command of the Chief and the
foreman and the boys are impressed
with the fact that they must obey
every order to the letter. They have
worked so silently and efficiently as
to earn the commentator of Off
GERS and men, and this appreciation
by the association comes as a reward.
The effectiveness is found in the
organization and direction of the
work. AS soon as the boys arrive the

Master find where coffee and sand

wiches can be secured. Certain boys
are detailed to carry these to every
man and to make the rounds system
atically. The Scout Master, with an
aid passes about continually from
point to point, watching for the
needs of the men. More than a score
of firemen can testify to the comfort
that comes from warming hands in
the Scout Masters big lined mittens.
The Chief and foreman have often
scarcely known where lantern
came from at just the right moment
when the torch boy was off on some
duty.
The boys have injured their shoes
and boots seriously. At the Foot
wear company's fire several boys
worked with feet soaked, aften in
water to the shoe tops. Many fire.
men saw the need of boots, and when

called the Association attention to
it they unanimously voted to fur
nish whatever the Scout Master con-
sidered necessary.
The Scouts are planning to pro-
vide specially convenient coffee
buckets and dippers and hope to

may provide coffee and sandwiches
without having to call on private in

COWS DO NOT PAY FOR FEED.
Recently Discovered at Cornell Dairy
Students Association.

One-third of the cows of the state
are not paying for their feed. This
fact was brought out at the recent
meeting of the Cornell Dairy Stu
dents Association during Farmers
Week at the College of Agriculture
at Ithaca and is based upon investi-
cation by the dairy association.
To better this condition the follow
ing action was suggested.
"Cowtesting associations should
be formed and poor COWS discarded.
There would be more money made by
so doing. Cleaner milk is needed,
and more care should be exercised
in it's handling. The use of damp
cloth on the udder flank of the cows,
omission of feeding previous to milk
ing and the use of a small topped
milk pail will do much to improve
conditions.
All skim milk sent back to the
farm ought to be pasteurized, and
such a law is likely to be passed in
the near future for the prevention
of the spread of tuberculosis. Live
steam may be passed into skim milk
for pasteurization. Exhaust steam
from the separator may be used for
the purpose"
