THANKSGIVING DINNER FOR
SOLDIERS PONTPONED

The plan to have a general gather
ing of baskets filled with good things
to eat and carried by truck to Camp
Sewer, for our Union boys Thanksgiv-
ing will have to be postponed, to the
very great regret of all. There is
such an epidemic of sickness among
the soldiers at that camp that the
camp has been put under quarantine
law. Measles, meningitis and pneu-
monia have developed to such an ex-
tent that these measures were con-
sidered necessary. w. d. Harris, who
had been taking the lead in the mat
ter of getting up the baskets has de-
cided that it will be best to put off
the preparation of the baskets to
some later day, the time to be an
nounced later. So soon as conditions
improve at the camp and the quaran-
tine is lifted, we will carry out the
plan outlined.

to the worthy questions. But, even
his thought is not without recompense.
The very madness that prevails will
create, invent, discover much that
will be turned to heal, restore, bless
and comfort mankind when the mad
ness passes and the new idea finds
itself living in a peaceful world. Men
will fly, but not to battle; they will
build explosives, but not for the de-
struction of men. The explosives,
created to destroy men will be used
to blow away distractions to the pro-
gress Of men. Mountains will be made
to give up their treasure with less la
Dor, tunnels will be built with less
waste of man power; coal or some
creation that will take its place will
send myriads of ships to and fro upon
the seas, but they will be going about
the peaceful pursuits of trade not load
led with guns and men trained to kill.
God! what work this would be, could
be, if there were less Of greed, am
bition, pride, envy, evil of all sorts.
After all, the thing that drove man
from Eden was sin, and the only
thing that keep him from re-
turning is sin. Is it not so?

M. c. Gault, one of our most val
ued correspondents, in his newsy and
very readable letter this week, calls
attention to his community, saying
that everybody around has or will
plant some wheat. That is a great
move, and it is to be hoped that every
community in this county will be in
the same class. Read what Mr.. Gault
has to say about the corn to be seen
in the cribs he tells of, also 1t is in
teresting reading and teaches it's own
lesson. Plant corn, plant wheat, plant
peas, beans, sorgum-plant, then plant
agan. If you don't you will live to
regret it, see if you don't?

Russia After War Be
Buyer Rather Than Seller

Petrograd, Oct. Correspond
ence of the Associated Press)-Point-
ing out the opportunity for the devcl-
opment of American trade in Russia
after the war, the Commercial and
Industrial Gazette suggests that the
part to be played by Americans will
be great.
"Russia," says the Gazette, "in the
near future will play the part of
buyer rather than of seller and there
fore, it is necessary that American
commercial men should be we'll ac-
qainted with the demands of the Rus
sian market and with the conditions
of buying and selling in Russia. In
order to obtain this, the Americans
should organize an experienced staff
of travelling agents, with a good
knowledge of Russian. The agents,
by coming into contact with Rus
slams, would soon get to know the
needs of the Russian market, and
would be able to suit American pro-
duce to Russian needs, so that they
would be above all competition.
/ "The same method of carrying
goods by means of agents should al
so be applied to products, which Rus
STA is in condition to export to
America (wool, beet-seeds, etc).
parallel with this, it would be de-
sirable to form in Russia staff of
trained mechanics and engineers, who
should undertake the management
and development of railways in Rus
sia.
There is no doubt that after the
war Russia will have an extensive
market for agricultural implements,
which branch of trade has always been
of great interest to Americans. There
fore it would be to Americas advan-
tage to have large staff of enlight-
ened workmen in Russia, to which end
the Americans would doubtless will
lngly throw open the doors of their
industrial schools and workshops to
Russian workers. On the other hand,
Russian institutions would also be

sirous of learning the conditions of
commerce in Russia.
"In such manner there would be
an exchange of practical workers,

is the best way to insure success"

Marshal Joffre May be
Elected to French Academy

Paris, October 17.-Correspondence
OF The Associated ess)-Belief that
Marshal Joffre would be the next per-
son elected to the French Academy
has been entertained by the public for
months but his reported declination to
follow the rule of the Academy by
announcing himself as a candidate ap-
pears to create situation resembling
a deadlock.
The thirty-four "Immortals" now
composing the Academy are said to be
unanimously in favor of Joffre as the
first of the six new members to be
elected. Everyone has talked about
the eventuality-everyone but Joffre,
and it appears to be essential that the
reticent hero of the Marne speak up
if he wants to become an Immortal. !"
1t is rule of the Academy that aspi-
rants for membership declare their
candidacy and it has been the tradi-
ton that they should call upon the
members to solicit their votes, much
in the same way as candidate for a
political Office. This Joffre has not
done and it is said that he will not
do it.
"The Marshal has never had any
ambition to become an Academician
said a close friend of Joffre. "In
fact, he asserts that he has no right
or title to the honor. Several of his
friends have urged him to propose
his candidacy but he considers that
there is no personal consideration in
the matter, that if he were chosen

We are sorry indeed to be COM
PEELED to have nice, newsy letter
from Buffalo consigned to the waste
basket. The letter is good, and it is
good from the standpoint of news. But
we have no earthly way of knowing
who wrote it, and that is necessary if
we are to publish the letter. You
can see just how this is, if you will
think for moment. Suppose some
one should question some statement
in the letter, and we were then to say
we did not know who wrote it, how
would that place us? 1t would look
very much like we had forged the let
ter, would it not? Glad to have let
ters, nice newsy letters. But we must
know who writes them. This we must
know for our own protection, if for

trouble so many women put the gro
ceryman, or the drygoods man to in
asking for cent delivery, then fol-
lowing with another request for an
other cent delivery-all within a
half hours time, has expressed her
appreciation and she volunteers this
suggestion: Let the housekeeper, af-
ter having ordered some article, be
ready with the ticket or the money

waiting. Let him come, be ready to
receive the goods sent, thus allowing
him to make a quick trip. This seems
a small matter, but it is not, for as

man power, and in time like this,
man power must be saved" 1t is
true, man power must be saved The
greatest asset the nation has is man
power The great waste of man pow
er in war times makes it all the more
obligatory that we husband it. Man
power, why that is the very thing we
need; the brutality that is going on in
the world threatens to reduce it's man
power to a minimum. Every avail
able ounce of man power should be
conserved. The lazy, or thoughtless
and careless housewife who thinks
that ten minutes of a delivery boys
time is of no value is very wide of the
mark in her thought. 1t is a waste OF
man power, and about the most
thoughtless, the most harmful and the
most damaging waste today is the
waste of man power. This idea, ex-
pressed by the good lady, shows very
great thoughtfulness and we pass il
on to others with the earnest plea
that they save man power; save it
for it is the one possession that is
being destroyed by war that we can
not regain in hurry. Save it, for il
will help win the war, save it, for ii
will be needed to feed and clothe the
world; save it, because it is mean, des.
perately mean, to waste it. "Save food
and help win the war;" fine! "Stor

good! "Eat wisely, help win the war
