An appeal from Harry E. Raphael,
the organizations only soldier-mem-

dent Samuel A. Finger appointed

cause for Democracy and humanity.
Thanking the grateful citizens and

Plans for a Farmers institute. to
be held early in 1918 were discuss
ed, and President Finger named
George B. Horner, Harry E. Van
Horn and George M. Shamalia as
committee to arrange for the affair.
The treasurer's and financial Sec
retary's reports showed the organi-
zation's funds in good shape, the
net balance being practically the
same as last month, despite the sew
eral bills in connection with the
display at the Farmers Exhibit. c..
C. B. John and Mayor Theodore
Balderston both spoke of the exhibit
at Solebury Deer Park on September
7 and s, and Frank Bailey, who
made his first visit there on that
occasion, was especially pleased with
it, and thought the local merchants
missed splendid chance when they
failed to take part in the commercial
exhibition.
General business matters were
discussed for a time, George M. Sha-
malta, the we'll known druggist, de-
scribing methods of holding custom,
some of which were giving the peo-
pie what they asked for instead of
trying to substitute, and another
the adjustment of complaints. Mayor
Balderston spoke of damaged freight
shipments received by local mer-
chants, and it was decided that this
matter would be gone into more

4 qualification to William Hohenzolern emperor of

know that his pet autocraces being successfully tat

some loafer with title tell them what to do that they
don't mind it much but here we have been used to
designating these title holders tramps and kicking them
to the next town. it takes longer to accept ka
serisms, especially when they branded with "de
mocracy" label.
Scott Nearing was professor who happened to tell
the truth, it appears which shocked his college
cates that they kicked him out of his job some time ago.
and the United States Government is after his scalp
because he is alleged to disagree with the brand of de
mocracy at present acceptable to that sterling disciple of
international freedom Woodrow Wilson. Nearing may be
all that said about him. but that doesn't govern

from his home that could have been obtained in a lawful

Jerseyman, who happened to say he didn't believe the
government had right to send American soldiers to fight
for foreign country and is out on 10000 ball. If

same ball. it would require thirteen quadrons Of dollars
to meet the emergency.
Every American prays for the success of the American
