tie hard feeling among the male men,
bers Of the Joint committee Of the three
organizations because OF the fact that
Mrs. Story was to preside. 1t being
thought that inasmuch as two OF the
organizations were composed OF men. q
man should preside.
The story Is told that several weeks
ago. when the meeting Of joint com:
mittee was held. to make ARRANGEMENTS. 8.
It was suggested by one OF the men,
bers Of the Sons Of the Revolution that
inasmuch as President A. X. Paris, of
that organization. had recently lost his
wife. he might not care to preside. and
that President Frederick c. Bryan. of
the Sons Of the American Revolution,
preside In his stead.
At this one of the women on the COM
mittee sprang to her feet It is reported.
and said that inasmuch as the d. A. r.
Hall was to be used, Mre. Story should
preside. and before the men on the com
mittee could recover from the shock the
motion was seconded by another woman
and Mrs. Story was named.
The men. however. realised that the
women had put one over on them" II
Is stated. and made every effort to keep
secret that there had been any I'M
pleasantness at the meeting. When
questioned regarding It, A. X. Paris
would not deny that there had been
some friction. but stated that every
thing was lovely and harmonious to-
0ay.

Mission to Supply.
LON Cost Bread
Ready Cooked Meals Will Be SEN
to Homes Of Needy, Says
Superintendent

A new sort Of bread line will be
opened tomorrow morning at the Gospel
Mission. "a John Marshall place.
Herbert Kline. superintendent of the
mission. today announced that he had
made arrangements with a number Of
baking companies to procure bread
brought back to the bakeries each eve
ming on the wagons. This bread. made
more wholesome by being one day old,
will be sold at the Gospel Mission at the
rate Of two loaves for cents
Another novel plan will be to serve,
already cooked. meals to be taken to
the homes OF the needy. This Is con-
sidered better plan than to serve
meals at the mission. or to provide the
raw materials. because the poor often
haven't the means of cooking them.
Beginning tomorrow. the mission will
provide for 10 cents a quart Of beef
stew. three boiled potatoes. and one loaf
!, Of bread. This will be enough to feed
three persons. The stew may be taken
home and warmed.
This arrangement was made in re-
sponse to many letters Of appeal, letters
which told of sickness in homes and
hunger because Of unemployment.

HISTORIAN DEPL0RES
REDUCED FAMILIES
SeIden N. Ely, in Address to S.
A. R., Says Nature Disre.
CARDS Our Civilization.

Nature, for some unfortunate rea-
SON. does not seem to regard American
civilization with favor, and the decrease
in the size of native families was point
ed out as u menace to the future Of this
nation by Selden Marvin Ely. historian
of the District Chapter Of the Sons Of
the American Revolution. who spoke at
the annual meeting of the chapter at
Rauscher's today.
I'm the days Of Benjamin Fraklin the
average native family was seven.' said
Mr.. Ely. 1T is not now two. A race
as we'll as a principle to perpetuate
itself must be vital. One of the prob
lens Of the day Is to connect American
progress. civilization. and liberty with
American vitality. so that there will be
dominant always men Of the type OF
the Revolutionary patriots and their
descendants
Political institutions are artificial. and.
DO matter how sound, they will crumble.
Their only repair Is men; men who
knsw how to defend and build them
STRONGER War Is a destroyer OF men.
The danger of war Is not IN Its cost In
money or property.
The danger Is the human harvest.
which has been so profoundly expressed
by Jordan. War, modern war. certainly
takes not the weaklings and towards
out Of the blood Of the nation. 1t takes
the bravest and the best Did war
strengthen a state. France would he the
most powerful and vital on earth"
Must Be Universal.
Mr.. Ely declared that as great a
blessing as peace is however. a state
"devoting itself exclusively to the
arts Of peace cannot sustain itself
against a vastly inferior state versed
in the science of war" The remedy
be held to be universal education and
the cultivation of an accuracy OF ma
tional thought which would result in
a conveyance of international or
world wide conviction.
Members of the District chapter
whose deaths during the year were
reported by the historian were as
follows: Edward Matthews Dawson
Thomas Spencer Childs. Fletcher
Robert Hartley Marcellus. John
Brown Bloss. Frederick William True
Daniel Hall Boughton., John Spring

Clean Up and Paint Up

Me want a healthier town, a nore sanitary town, a better tow town in which to live.
 4 scrubbing brush and pant will do it. ...
 While thousands of cities and towns are enthusiastically en- aaned in a clean up and paint up campaign why should we not have the same kind of a cam paiun right here at home?
 Why not clean up the streets and alleys, the back and front wards. the vacant lots? Why not remove the dirt wherever we can find it? Why not paint the dlngy houses and fences?
 There is both pleasure and economy in such campaign. It means a more attractive place ia which to live. and adds to the pleasure of life. Removing the accumulated dirt means less sickness, and painting up adds to the value of our homes and business buildings.
 The man who inaugurated the clean up and paint up campaign that has for the last three years swept over the nation has bene- flied millions of people. We should oct into this popular movement and share in the pleas ureS and benefits that invariably come from a campaign of this character.

FOOD THAT IS NOURlSH,NG
housewife Must Always Remember That Proper Percentage of Iron
 Is Necessity.

Iron should play an important mart Ill preparing meals. It is essential in the making of the red corpuscles in the blood and is directly concerned with the processes of oxidation and re- production, The iron of the food en. tiers the circulation and is deposited mainly in the liver, the spleen and the bone marrow. Iron may be taken as a medicine and stimulates the produc- tion of hemoglobin and red blood cor. puscles, but it is better to get it if possible directly through food and wa ter
 The amount of iron needed appears to be varied with different individu. als, depending on the nature of their work, diet and other conditions Care full experiments have shown that the average man under normal conditions requires about fifteen milligrams of iron per day. The average woman is supposed to require about eight-tenths as much food as a man and the same proportion of iron will suffice. A child that needs half as much food requires the same proportion of iron.
 As long as infants are drinking milk they get only small amount of iron but it is interesting to know that certain amount has been stored in their systems at birth to tide them over until they get a diet which con- tains its share of iron.
 Beefsteak and some vegetables are rich in iron. In meat the iron exists largely as hemoglobin. due to the blood contained in the muscular tissues. Iron in combination with protein mat ter Is found in considerable quantity in grains. String beans, navy dried beans, lima beans, spinach especial ly, cabbage and dried peas are rich in iron. Among the fruits that have plenty of iron are dried prunes, apples and raisins.

FARM MANAGEMENT
Fundamental Principles Of Business Slated BY
Government Experts

Certain fundamental principles of
farm management are advanced by
specialists of the department as hav-
ing been grought out or aubstan-
tiated by thorough agricultural sur
vey of an old and representative
farming section of Chester County.
Pa. These principles are summariz-
ed as follows:
Farming conforms to local soil,
climate, labor, and market conditions
OF the individual farm.
When conditions remain unchang-
ed for a long time, farming becomes
approximately what it ought to be
to get the best results, provided that
practice which is imediately the most
profitable does not deplete soil fertil.
ity.
Success in farming, measured in per
cent of profit on investment, does
not depend in the magnitude of the
farm business, but measured in terms
of the standard of living of the farm
family it is directly proportional to
the magnitude of business.
Proftes increase as yields per acre
increase until yield are considerably
above the average for the LOYALTY,
but beyond this point increased yields
are obtained at loss.
In quantity of product per dairy
COW the point of diminishing returns
is not reached in ordinary farm prac-
tice.
5 It is easier. and more profitable tc
