be presented to the aldermen and the
mayor at the Monday meeting of the
city council.
In their resolution they ask:
That municipal markets be estab-
lished, where food can be obtained
cheap and the middleman's profit be
cut out.
That the city council establish coal
and ice yards where the poor may
get both these necessities at cost.
That the renting agents be headed
off in their attempts to raise the
rents.
That each woman influence the
peddlers not to buy vegetables for a
week to break the hold of specuIa-
tors on the market.
That the council aid them in a pro-
test against the move of the milk
companies to boost the cost of milk.
That the women OF the city,
whether rich or poor, get behind and
aid the growth of the Mothers
league.
+. Some Of our food hogs got severe
treatment at the hands of Morris Sis
kind, editor of the Jewish World, one
of the speakers at the meeting to-
day.
"A fair sample of the situation was
given when the papers said that the
price of ice would be raised by the
Consumers Co. Why?
I'VE have had one of the coolest
winters in history and a cold winter
means an abundance of ice. But they
shove the price way up anyway.
Why?
It's simply because they have con-
troll of the ice business of the city.
They are so influential that the city
council and the administration won't
touch them. So they get away with
the price boosting and unless you
women make public protest there
will never be a word said against il.

FOOD HOGS MARCH
Don't let the food hogs take the
bread and meat from out of our
mouths. Don't let the milk cOmpa-
MES steal the milk from our babies
with their high prices and big prof
its. Don't let the food spectators
force up the cost Of ice, coal and veg
etables. Give us help"
This was the plea that a mother,
one of 500 who crowded HodcarTiers'
hall today, made to Mayor Thompson
and the city council of Chicago.
When she was through speaking
the women present voted into being
the Mothers League of Chicago
just plain housewives who can't
stand the pressure of high prices any
longer.
They didn't parade to the City Hall
as they had planned, because the
newspapers had done their best to
make a bloody riot of such an affair
by making it appear that the police
department would be defied by these
women. They took the more orderly
course or organizing, so LhaC they
can get a permit to parade.
The date for the monster hunger
march, to show Chicago's govern
ment how the West Siders are suf-
fering from the excessive cost of
foodstuffs, was set. It will be Satur-
day and every woman in Chicago
who wants to cut the cost of food is
invited to get into the line Of protest.
The crowd of mothers VINO made
their way to the meeting in the wet
today was in favor of marching de-
spite the pouring rain outside. Once
they rose to their feet while Mrs.
Fannie Schneid, the chairman, was
talking to them, and demanded that
they be allowed to parade as they
had been promised.

Methodist Church To Be Dedicated.

The new Southern Methodist Church
of Bakerton, OF which Rev. Ernest w.
Aaron is pastor, will be dedicated on
Sunday morning, July 18th, at IL O'Clock.
DR.. w. s. Neighbors, president OF Gen.
tenary College, Cleveland, Tenn, will
preach the dedicatory sermon. The
speaker is we'll known throughout The
South as a strong pulpit orator. The
church in Bakerton is fortunate in getting
DR.. Neighbors. The pastor, Rev. Mr..
Aaron, was received into Greene-Memor-
ial Church OF Roanoke, Va, under the
pastorate OF DR.. Neighbors, ten years
ago. Special music will be provided by
Mr.. ]. S. Renner and his chorus choir
from Richmond, Va. These are mostly
male voices and several quartetS, duets
and solos will be rendered during the day
at each service.
The Methodists OF Bakerton now have
one OF the prettiest little churches in the
conference, as we'll as one of the best
equipped for the size Of town.
II is modern in every way, having an
up-to-date Sunday school department
with eight class-rooms, besides assembly
room. The Sunday school department
is separated from the auditorium by roll
ing canvas curtains, but can be thrown
open into one room in moment. The
whole building will seat 400 people and
will cost $500 complete. 1t sets on a
one-acre lot. perhaps the best situation
in Bakerton. The pastor. Rev. Mr.
Aaron, says that the story OF the toll
labor and sacrifice on the part OF his
people would make interesting reading
and such sacrifice means their continued
love and loyalty to the church there
There are no members OF the church,
with l20 members in the Sunday school,
not counting the cradle roll.
All are cordially invited to be present
and stay all day. Bring your baskets
Plenty of room for horses and auto
mobiles near the church. Come early n

even be able to seat half OF the people
but DR.. Neighbors' voice can be heard
at a great distance and perfect order vii

West Virginia Bone Dry.

Under the Interpretation placed by the
Department OF Justice on the recently
enacted federal law, West Virginia is now
actually "bone-dry," so far as legal ability
TO get drinks is concerned. The federal
law prohibits the transportation OF intoxi-
eating liquors into any State which
prohibits the manufacture or sale OF such
drinks. West Virginia prohibits the
manufacture or sale, but allows one quart
a month to be brought into the State for
personal use. The federal law is inter
preted by the Department OF Justice, how
ever, 10 mean that no quantity whatever
OF intoxicating liquor can be imported
into West Virginia by common carrier,
private conveyance, on the person or in
baggage. United States attorneys every
where have been instructed TO enforce
the federal law under this Interpretation,
regardless OF the State law authorizing
the one quart month. This makes the
State absolutely dry, so far as the obtain
ing OF drinks by legal methods is con-
cerned.
Persons who bring liquor into West
Virginia, even in the smallest quantities,
are now amenable 10 federal law and
will be tried in the United States courts.
Those who carry il into this State from
Sharpsburg or Williamsport will come
under the jurisdiction OF Judge Dayton,
and they will do we'll to remember what
he is accustomed 10 do TO violators OF the
liquor laws.

Morgan's Grove Fair.

II the wish OF those in immediate charge
OF Morgan's Grove becomes reality the
1917 fair, which is 10 be September 4, s.,
and 7, will come nearer being what it
ought to be than ever before. II is hoped
that the representative people OF the
community will unite with the officials to
make the exhibition reflect the skill, cul-
ture, and best efforts of Jefferson county.
In meeting the desire OF The communi-
ty. there will be no devices upon the
grounds which are OF gambling nature.
The usual attractions will be there to
amuse and help pass the time away. The
tent colony will lose none ofits cheer and
hospitality.
The stock exhibits will be entirely OF
our own growing, and the horse show
has been limited to one day. The boys
and girls clubs will come in for their
share of the premiums. To arouse pride
in our individual farms, very substantial
prize will be given to that farm having
the best display of farm products at the
fair. This ought TO appeal to the younger
farm folks and it is hoped that large
number will begin at once to arrange for
this exhibit.
