Henry Ford Patriotic

When asked for the terms on

eastern assembling factory to the
government for use during the war
Henry Ford replied, mo terms at

those whb will belittle the act with
the remark that he can we'll afford
1t, but it was none the less prince
ly act OF loyalty. And it stands out
in such vivid contrast to the ac-
tions and words of many professed-
ly loyal people that 1t is especially
noticeable. Mr.. Ford did all in his
power to prevent this country 60

subject himself to redicule in his

The Harvest Moon

During the last days of-September
and the first few in October the
world was bathed in the rsSs of the
Harvest moon. The popularity OF
the harvest moon is that it shines
throughout the entire night, ris.
ing just after sunset and staying
on duty until the orb of day has
made his appearance This sche-
dule is followed for several days.
Why the deviation from the usual
schedule none seem to know. In
the countries Of Europe it's brilliant
light has always been utilized more
or less to save daylight" in the har-
vest operations. 1t has also been
favored by lovers presumably since
Adam wooed Eve in the Garden.
The harvest moon figures largely in
the folklore of many OF the north
ern countries.

4 Triumph ycr Nelly

On Friday the 18th Of October,
School was dismissed at 300 o'clock
and almost the whole school went
en- masse to Granada to witness the
first basket ball game Of the season.
We all felt confident that our boys
would win, but the score exceeded
even our expectations. The game
was played on an out door court.
This was rather novelty for the
Holly boys, who have done little
out door playing, owing to our own
fine gymnasium. In spite Of the
fact that the, boys have had little
chance for practice. they did some
splendid playing. The catching OF
Vernon Newbanks; and the basket
throwing Of Richard Demaray were
noticeable features of the game.
Each and every one Of, the boys de,
serve credit for the parts they play
ed. We wonder why Granada cal

they, themselves, boasted one

sdiaen I'll. Silent

For many weary months now the
world has been asking itself the
question. what is Edison doing?''
and as yet there has been no de
finite answer. We are assured in
vague terms that he is perfecting
some device or devices that will
have powerful influence in: termin-
ating the conflict. but the months
drag on and we are as mtish in the
dark rs ever. We are mysteriOus1y
informed that he has discovered or
isolated or located OF invented some
kind Of ray that will burn up q
battleship or aytown at distance
of many miles, but that ray" has
not yet Illuminated our darkness
It may be that one or more Of his
discoveries are already in use If
SO, why not let the public know?
Surely the rare knowledge that our
faith in him is not misplaced, could
work no harm. Seriously the
American people need all the en-
couraeement they can get in the
days that are before them, and if
Mr. Edison's genius is still wr6king
full time it would help us to know
1t.
