The OVERSEAS ACRE FUND

While American farmers are meet
ing serious difficulties in harvesting
this years crops and preparing for
those of next year, our brother farm
ers i'm the warning countries are in
far worse trouble. With fields torn
up. trees destroyed, buildings ruined,
equipment lost, French farmers have
little lett 10 give tlem interest in crop
growing beyond the pressing need Of
food. These farmers are not in need
of charity nor advice; they need only
the seed to plant the tools TO plant
with and homes TO live in while crops
are growing. With winter fast ap-
preaching, our French neighbOrs are
IN desperate straits and yet only ask
for the bare opportunity to help them
selves. their beloved France and the
whole Allied cause.
Some time ago very practical
means was found TO help these war
sufferers In one large wheat-grOw-
ing section Ot country each farmer
gave lhe proceeds of one acre, or its
equivalent cas1, to the cause OF
French L.fmera Every man who
has ever los, buildings by fire, who
has ever lost work horses in the busy
season. WAC has seen much needed
help desell lu ,ne busy season, appre-
ciates the invaluable help OF good
neighbors in time OF stress. We must
remember that to thousands of the
French farmers far greater calamities
than these have occurred and that
neighborly assistance is much more
needed and will be equally appreciat-
ed a widespread movement has
therefore been started in the United
States to provide this neighbOrly help
through the medium of the Overseas
Acre Fund. American farmers from
their comparative plenty are asked to
give the product of one acre OF crops
to this cause. We, the undersigned
committee for Sussex County, have
been appointed to bring this matter
to the attention of the people Of this
county, and we urge that all good
farmers think of the French as neigh
bors in distress. who in times past
have helped America in as practical
a way as Americans are now asked to
help France.

PAUL PRY'S GLENDALE
LETTER.

The rainy weather of this week has
nut a stop to farm work, but the can
merry whistles still indicate there IS
great activity there, with hundreds
of baskets of keifer pears stacked
around the building, while carloads
of tomatoes are still arriving at the
soup factory, and there are many fine
tomatoes of a good size still in the
patches.
Friends were surprised to learn on
Thursday last of the marriage of Ar
chic Ellingsworth and Miss Ethel
johnson. which took place at Elkton
on that day. Mr.. Ellingsworth is the
SON of Jonas Ellingsworth of this
town and brother or Bright Eyes
and Miss Johnson is the daughter OF
Mrs. Johnson. also of Glendale.
David Reed met with loss this
week when his youngest and best
mule dropped dead while at the log
team. This is three good mules Mr.
Reed has lost recently.
An enjoyable event in the history OF
old New Market church occurred on
Saturday when a Harvest Home Com
ing was celebrated. The smiling face
of the aged pastor, Rev. Barratt, was
the center Of attraction, and he was
presented with a huge pile of good
things, that took a big wagon TO de-
liver to his home. His words of ap-
probation made many a happy heart.
Everyone had a welcome hand for
Eddie Clendaniel. who came home on
Sunday from Camp Dix for a short
visit with his family.
Mrs. Good, wife of the postmaster
has been called to her home in Nir-
ginia, where her sister is very i'll.
1t is reported that Isaac P. Warren
is selling his stock preparatory to
leaving his farm at New Market to
move to the city with his family.
The scarcity OF labor here and the
lure of big wages in the cities is caus-
ing a number of our best farmers to
leave here. This does not bid well
for the preservation of food stuffs
that Uncle Sam must have for his
army.
