Crowfoot Bottom, March lowell,
| see everybody is not against me.
The writer from Route says women
shout not vote and so do I. One
writer says that when woman COM
mits crime she is punished under the
same laws and she has no say in laws,
She should have no say in law Why
should not women go to the front in
war if they vote 1t is also some
woraen are treated like dogs and
worse than some dogs. Some people
would not take good horse or COW
for their pet dog. Men and women
are on an equality some times. Mems
vote can be bought for Jews-harp
and women's for half-pound box of
chocolates My wife says she has not
made up her mind about voting. She
thinks she will vote if she gets the
chance not for the party, but for
the money, and she is right.

YE OLDEN TIMES

In your last issue appeared letter
from my old friend w. S. Lang.
Its contents carried me back to
1865, when / attended my first school.
My teacher was a sister to Mr.. Lang's
Miss Margaret See. She was my
ideal teacher-kind, gentle, and pains
taking. Up to the time I had only
learned my letters, but oh! how /
longed to be able to read like the
Miss" as we called her.
1t did not require a satchel to carry

window and four benches made of
split poles.
We sat on these benches and used
our laps for desks.
When we practiced writing we used
a shelf that was in front of the one
window.
Our games consisted of Base,
Round Town and Ring-around-a Rosie
Miss Margaret, like her sister, Miss
Lovina, was intensely religious, al
ways opening school with prayer, and
on Friday afternoon gave special in
struction in the Bible.
Now, I am neither pessimest nor
egotist but believe ! can say without
fear of successful contradiction that
the schools of those days produced
better readers and better spoilers and
maintained a higher standard of NOR
ais than do the schools of the present.

1T ISN'T YOUR TowN,-ITs you

If you want to live in the kind of a
town
Like the kind of town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in grip
And start on a long, long hike,
You'll only find what you left behind,
For there's nothing that's really
new.
It's a knock at yourself when you
knock your town.
1t isn't the town-it's you.
Real towns are not made by men
afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead.
When everyone works and nobody
shirks,
You can raise a town from the
dead.
And if while you make your personal
stake,
Your neighbors can make one, too,
Your town will be what you want to
see.
It isn't the town-it's you.

ONE EFFECT OF THE WAR

American manufacturers of war
supplies will sell billion dollars
worth to the allies of Europe during
the first year of the war, according
to the New York World, which bases
its estimate on figures supplied from
official government sources, and it's
own independent investigation, which
appears to have been thorough and
painstaking. It has not been posi-
bic to carry on trade of similar
character with Germany on account
of the interruption of traffic between
that country and the United States.
Manufacturers of this country have
sold $400,000,0O0 worth of munitions
of war to the allies during the past
six months. Most of the material
has been sent to Canada, where it has
trans-shipped in English bottoms.
The World thus itemizes the value
of supplies shipped or contracted for:
Arms and ammunition 100000, 900;
iron and steel, $66,0oO,0OO; textiles,
$82,000,000; automobiles, $4,000, 900;
chemicals and medicines, $6,25O, 600;
leather and harness, including shoes,
$18,000,000; miscellaneous, including
provisions, s161, 100000 The allies
have bought or contracted for prac-
tically the entire output of United
States factories making arms, am
munition and explosives, with the re-
suit that all of them are working
day and night, making or planning
additions to their plants, and in
their normal working force
10000 to $4,000 men.
1t is not only the manufacturers of
.uns and gun-powder who are profit
.ng by European war orders; the
makers of underwear, socks and
sweaters, boots and shoes are so
rushed with orders that they are also
fnlarging their mills. The textile in
dustry of New England has war or
lders amounting to $32,000,0O0. The
shoe makers are contemplating an
advance in domestic prices on account
of the foreign demand. More than
10000 automobile trucks. valued at
$3AsQ00,000 have been shipped to
England and France. The average life
of an auto truck in France is said
to be but seven days. The demand for
wire, for use in entanglements, is
said to be unprecedented.
The greatest secrecy is being main
tanned concerning these war orders,
particularly among the manufacture
ers of arms and ammunition. Many
articles are sent to Canada in parts
and there assembled for shipment to
England. The allies have had many
purchasing agents in this country,
but it is said the buying has been
systea'atized dseing tl.a rast month
and il now largely controlled by J. P.
Morgan &. Co. and the Guaranty
Trust Company of New York. Aside
from the iron and steel mills and
automobile factories, most of this
war business goes to concerns in New
York and New England, but many
big contracts have been distributed
tho. ghout the country.
