WELCOME BELGIANS
TO IOWA FARMS
One Hundred Thousand Of Them
Could be Given Accommoda-
ton Here.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
CLINTON, Iowa, Nov. 3.-Wood-
worth Clum, president of the Greater
Iowa association. announced today
that he had sent the following tele-
gram to John D. Rockefeller. Jr., on
reading dispatches stating that the
Rockefeller foundation is seeking to
alleviate conditions among the Bel
gian war sufferers:
Iowa is deeply concerned with the
condition of the Belgian refugees and
we have a plan which we believe will
accomplish practical philanthropy.
Iowa has room enough and work
enough for 100000 Belgian farmers on
the basis of ten acres to family,
provided they will follow in Iowa the
same methods OF intensive cultivation
which they have developed so mag
nfticently In their own country.
II believe the Greater Iowa associa-
ticn, working with the Rockefeller
foundation. can arrange to- provide
land and homes for 100000 Belgians
and enable them to earn not only
their livelihood but Fay for their
farms in ten years. n other states
will do as well, the Belgian problem
is solved and within ten years Iowa
farm land will be selling for $500 an
acre instead of 5000 as at present.
Will you cooperate with u.s."

And see him ROBBED in dainty lace,
And watch his baby ways.

And innocent as now.

Gorgas
Drug Store
in the
P.R.R. Station

The Gorgas Drug Store in the
Pennsylvania Station grows in
popularity. Its convenience is ap-
preciated by the travelling public
and by the railroad employees who
have occasion to pass in going to
or coming from their work. Peo-
pie living in the vicinity of Har-
risburg who use the Pennsylvania
lines in coming to the city, find 1t
very handy to make their purchases
right in the station on arriving and
having them held until they take
a train for home. 1t saves them
time and the annoyances of carry
ing packages about town. The same
low prices prevail at both Gorgas
Drug stores and the reputation for
reliability is lived up to as strictly
in one as in the other. 1t makes
no difference which Gorgas Drug
Store you patronize, you always
get courteous attention, depend
able goods and the lowest price.
