dered more than a year and a half ago

lamp OF Immortality. in her right a
sheaf of wheat, signifying the laying
aside of life full and abundant.

Mr.. Persons has just returned from

with Food Administrator Hoover, and he
said that it is also to be the policy of

Persons, land that If the supplies from
the United States were cut off from

clared the camp officials deserve con-
gratulations for the manner in which
they have handled the camp and the
small amount of sickness. In fact, the
governor found that there is not at all
more sickness OF any kind than is TO
