RESOLUTIONS.
SummertOn Lodge No. los A. f. Nj.
July Goth, 1917.

Whereas, it has pleased almighty
God to take from our midst our
brother, Thomas H. Harvin, and while
we of Summcrton Lodge No. 105 A.
F. M. deeply dcplorc the loss to our
selves and his bereaved family, yet,
we bow to the will of our Heavenly
Father. Now be it resolved by Sum-
merton Lodge No. 1O5,
That, in the death of Brother Har-
vim the lodge has lost a most loyal
brother, and the community and state
a most worthy and valued citizen,
who dying in mature life leaves
long record embracing the record of
a valicnt soldier defending his coun-
try, a business career Of rigid hon
esty, and active support Of every
cause looking to the uplft of his
community.
That, the lodge extends to the be-
reaved family its fullest sympathy,
and joins with them IN sorrow for
the irreparable loss that has come to
them,
That copy Of these resolutions
be sent to the family Of our de-
ceased brother, and that the same be
spread upon the minutes of our lodge
and a copy sent to our county paper.

The newly-clectcd officers Of the

The following are the officers for
the new year: President, Miss Mar

which it is founded is that the needs
of the government may be passed
down the line from Washington to
the different states; from the States
to the Counties; from the Counties to
the Townships; and in the Townships
to the individuals, so that all pa
triotic citizens may know in just what
way they can best serve their coun-
try during the emergency that is
now confronting us.
You have been appointed Chairman
of this Council Of Public Defense for
your Township. This is an acknowl-
edgement of, and an appeal to your
patriotism, and you have been ap-
pointed because Of the feeling that
you can be trusted to combine your
efforts with those of others for the
common good.
The first thing that we have been
requested to do is to urge planting
of food stutfs. America is now the
granary of the world. If famine
strikes and cripples any Of our Allies
it means that more American blood
must be shed.
Second: Our wasteful habits must
be changed. We must realize that it
is not fashionable to waste food, and
that public service Is rendered by
those who save when they are rich
enough to waste. Those who conserve
n ri tio1n off
food means more than money as SOL
diers cannot eat money! are serving
their country.
Third: There are various other mat
ters in which the Council has helped
and will cooperate with the Govern-
ment, such as the Liberty Loan, The
Red Cross, the urging of enlistment,
the detection of Slackers, the report
ing of spies. But the most pressing
matters at present are those relating
to food stuffs.
Will you not organize your Town
ship and endcavor publicly and pri-
vately to cultivate a sentiment for
the production and conservation of
food stuffs, the need of which may be
hereafter communicated to us?
With regards, I am,
Very truly yours,
A. I. BARRON,
County Chairman National Council of
Public Defense.

Dear SIR
When Germany began preparation
for this great war she provided for
every contingency and for means by
which all of the resources of the En-
pire could be utilized to the fullest
against her foes. She had vast quan-
titles Of food stored, and means of
directing and controlling the produc-
tion, distribution and conservation of
the necessary food stuff.
1t is to the credit of this Nation
that we are unprepared and that all
| OF the industries Of the Nation can
not be handled and automatically con-
trolled to the whims and ideal of one
man, because such condition, al
though necessary in war, is inconsist-
ent with the liberty Of which we boast
in time Of peace.
TO supply this lack and provide for
a mobilization of the industrial re-
sources of the Nation there has been
formed a Voluntary Association Of
patriots under the name of the Coun-
| Gil of Public Defense. The idea upon

CORN AGREEMENTS

CHICAGO, Oct. 11.-Outside boards of trade meeting with the Chicago board today decided to remove the maximum limits on prices of corn.
 The following agreements were concurred in unanimously:
 First-There is to be no change whatever at this time in the maximum price of corn now in effect in the diff ferent markets.
 Second-All markets agree that SO far as contracts maturing in different months in 1917 are concerned that at no time shall the present maximum be removed on such contracts. This on contracts which mature in the varying months of the year of 1918, some exchanges reserve the right at future date to modify or rescind existing maximums or regulations now in effect or 1918 contracts.
