Elaborate Plans Made Here
For Entertainment Of

The followers OF Buckhannon feel
that they may come here and witness.
the fourth consecutive defeat OF the
Old Gold and Blue for the state cham:

know for certain that this years blunt,

There Iis no one in Fairmont that does
not send to Stansbury and Carlow at
Buckhannon a cordial welcome. The
came honor Is also extended TO the
players Of Sol Metzger. During the
stay in Fairmont the Morgantown

nitiie next week or ten days arrange.
ments will be completed whereby It
will be almost a crime for any in tbs
state to purposely stay away from
Fairmont that day.
There will be plenty OF room at the
grounds to handle thousands OF enthu.
stasts on the day OF the game. Special
seats will be erected for the conven.
tence of many who wish to sit along
the field AMI watch the progress OF the
ball. There is no danger OF these
seats falling when about 1000 raving
fanatics all jump at once and cheer
ten gains Of Rodgers or the tackles OF.

resound when Curry hits the line or

Plain, honest John Edgerly drove
the pillow steadily and cheerily. 1t was
not much of farm plat his parents
had left him. but 1t brought him In q
living.
More than once he had been tempt
ed to sell out and invest in some small
business in the brisk, promising city.
He had become cured of that. how
ever. during the last month. Several
venturesome young fellows like him
self had tried metropolitan ambition
and had returned home seedy. dis
consulate and sick Of an experience
THAT had turned out hollow and un-
friendly.
Then, too, just that bright, lovely
morning John had made up his mind
to something. He had been keeping
company with Vera Brooke for some
time back. Vera was modest and hum
BILE as himself, but he believed she
liked him.
.Tll settle down. ruminated John
contentedly-"yes, that's the best
way"
It looked SO to him. Vera would
make an ideal wife. Her folks were
poor, she would appreciate good
home. Small as the little homestead
was, 1t was comfortable and fairly
furnished. Love would beautify 1t.
They would work together and save,
and some day they might own better
place In the town, like Judge Grinnell
and his naughty empress of daugh-
ter, Ivy.
'T'll ask Vera this very evening"
resolved John, and was happy in the
thought.

just beyond the fence. In 1t sat the
very object Of his recent thoughts
the judge and his daughter. The
former leaped from the vehicle as IL
John was his greatest friend in the
world. Miss Grinnell smiled at him
"a thing she had never done before.
'Hello!" muttered John, what's
up?.

Carpets on Pavements.

Aniline dyes have not added to the
reputation of the carpets Of Persia.
At one time the only dyes used in the
Persian carpet industry came from In
digo, madden, and vine leaves. From
these were evolved many delicate
shades impervious to the action OF
sunlight. With aniline dyes the colors
fade much more rapidly. In Persia
you may see new rugs spread on the
floors OF bazaars, SO that many feet
may tread on them. By such hard
wear-provided the colors are fast
the genuine article improves in ap-
pearance, acquiring an attractive gloss.
A Persian carpet of the best kind has
e marvellous number OF stitches, and
hearthrug of pure silk may cost
hundreds of dollars.

Piled. These appear to have been OF
metal or wood, and from their peculiar
shape seem to have served as per-
petual reminders to pass the bottle.
One authority says they were called
"tumblers" because they could not be
set down except on the side when
empty; and another derives their name
from their original shape, rounded at
the bottom so that they tumbled over

that the Germans had no fear OF run
ming short Of food. and that they
thought the idea of the allies being
able to starve them out was absurd.
For instance" one of the officers said
to me, ito show you how we Germans
look ahead, we have below here more
than $4,000 acres of land under culti-
walton in wheat and potatoes. We
hope that the civilians will gather
this crop and that the war will be
over by the time of the harvest, but
IL it is not the army will reap the
benefit"
Two or three days later was taken
over the army farm" by the little fat
major who has organized and directed
the work. He was the bandmaster
rather than the military type of Ger
man and had been the manager of a
large estate in Pomerania. Talk Of
the trenches left him cold, but at
mention of the farm or it's affairs he
became another person. His small
black eyes twinkled, his fifty years
seemed to become twenty-five, and he
went into ecstasies over the improve
ments Germany, and especially Pom
erania, had introduced in harvesting
machinery, fertilization or potatoes.
AS we rode along in military auto
mobile from Sedan to Rethel, he kept
telling me of the primitive agricul-
tural methods he had found when the
German army first entered that coun-
try.
Planter Is Rewarded.
"They don't know how it is to use
what they have got" he kept saying
as he pointed to manure pile in
front of a cottage door or a clump of
trees standing in the middle of a field.
They lose one-half of the fertilizing
power by not having pits, and they do
not know forestry at all. You should
see Pomerania."
In the buttonhole of his tunic he
wore the black ribbon with two white
stripes which represents the Iron
Cross, and / asked him if he had ever
been in the trenches. "No," was the
answer, "but / planted these fields

never wastes it's opportunities"
When we had passed Rethel and
gone south about six miles, we turned
east along the southern boundary of
the 75,000-acre farm that the soldiers
of the Third German army are work
ing. We passed many fields where
the soldiers and civilians were work
ing side by side, some where soldier
was driving an army horse and often
an army cart, and civilian was walk
ing alongside, spreading the manure
with pitchfork. I asked some OF
these civilians if the Germans were
forcing them to work. They all said
no, but that unless they used the army
