John Kramer of this city and Roy Wilcox of Windham were arrested by Chief Killourey and Officer Hurley on Thursday evening, charged with farm of Thomas c. Chandler of South Coventry.
 Last Friday morning, just a week ago, upon going out in the morning, 30 bushels of apples, picked and in bags, had been stolen. He notified the local police and they have been on the lookout since. In the last few days, Chief Killourey. has been doing some gumshoe work and the ar rests Thursday evening were the re- suit. Kramer was carrying five bags of the apples in an auto to the home the two officers and taken to the sta ton. When arrested they were dress ed as if they were hunting, one of them carrying gun.
 Upon going to the house, nine bags of apples were found in the basement and a large box, evidently to hold ap- ples which were later used or sold.
 Both men are employed at the Van derman Foundry as moulders. They will be before the police court this (F'riday) morning and it will probabl go hard with them. as the law enacted by the last legislature fixes a penalty of a fine not exceeding $100 or six months in jail. or both, for thefts from
 
 Juniors Give Halloween Party.
 Eat, Drink and be Merry, for tomor- row we study, was the idea at the Halloween social given at the State Normal School gym by the Junior class to the rest of the school.
 The affair was a masquerade, only students and the teachers being ad- mitted. The costumes varied from plain clothes to all sorts of fancy gowns. the army and navy, Columbia, Mutt and Jeff, all sorts of nymphs, monsters, and royal personages. The evening opened with grand march. After this the company unmasked and settled down for an evening of en- joyment. Dancing was enjoyed after which doughnuts. cider and apples were served. Then the party adjourn ed to another room in the school where there was ducking for apples, fortune telling, dancing, etc.
 Practically the whole class had some part in planning for the affair and the following were chairmen of the different committees: Emma Hen sig, Maud Smith, Margaret Healy, Ve- rOnica Jenkins

The announcement of Food Admins
traitor Hoover that cattle and hog
prices will not be reduced by order of
the board is of decided interest to the
farmers of the northwest Mr.. Hoo
yer says in his brief statement that
the government recognizes the import
ance of increasing the production of
meats of all kinds, and that this can
be brought about only by conditions
which will make the raising of meat
animals profitable to the producer.
There will be no attempt on the part
of the government to reduce the prices
of meat animals, and producers may
proceed secure in the knowledge that
their efforts will be rewarded by good
prices for some time in the future.
The one line in which results can most
quickly be reached is in the produc-
ton of hogs, and it is to the interest
of the whole state that the fullest
possible attention be given now to this
feature.

AMERICAN AVIATORS DROP LIB.
ERTY LOAN POSTERS
OVER LINE.

Washington, Oct. 22.-American
aviators, in France, the treasury de-
partment ANNOUNCED today, were flying
over the German lines, dropping tens
of thousands of Liberty loan posters.
Large supplies of the posters were
sent some time ago to General PERISH
ing, and arrangements were made to
have American aviators on the western
front to shower the German lines with
them simultaneously with the aerial
campaign of dropping paper bombs
from coast to coast in this country.
The posters selected for use on the
front depict Uncle Sam with an army
of millions and an air fleet of tremen-
dous proportions. Another poster,
selected for this work, was the one de-
picting the Statute of Liberty.

WILL WE DO OUR FULL DUTY?

A nation which can afford to double
three billion war loan subscription
and yet merely subscribe the bare
figures is lacking in doing its best
as the man who takes S1OO bond
when $1,000 worth would not scratch
his resources.
We are prone to feel that the easy
thing is enough to do for this loan.
1t isn't.
1t wasn't easy for the boys to 60
to the front. 1t means sacrifices for
every one of them. We must sac
rifice to buy bonds.
1t is not enough to grant the gov
eminent merely enough for its bare
necessities. The moral aspect OF
this loan is of more Importance thar
the material aspect. And for such
a moral effect as will stimulate all
the international forces of righteous
ness and dishearten the forces of evil
there must be unstinted liberality.
There must be great over-sub.
scription. Every dollar up to the
three billions has had its value dis
counted. It has been expected as q
matter of course. 1t merely goes tc
cancel a binding obligation. But
every dollar above that limit is 8
positive force making for early vic.
tory. Every added billion will bring
us months nearer the end. A
fourth billion will be worth the whole
first three together. Five billions
we might also say, will be worth five
time as much as three.
Let no citizen, then, rest content
at the prospect of the required mini.
mum being raised. Those who have
bought should buy more if they car
possibly afford it. Thus only viii
the Second Liberty Loan be rea
victory.

USUALLY NOT so CARELESS
Story Of the Steward and the Cock.
reaches One Of Late Admiral
Dewey's Favorite Sea Yarns.

Among the late Admiral Dewey's sea
stories was one about an inefficient
steward.
"A sea captain"-so he would be-
gin-"drank of cup Of coffee and
then started back with a cry Of hor-
ror, for there in the bottom of the
cup lay two gigantic cockroaches.
1.-THE sen captain summoned the
steward In voice Of thunder. He
pointed out the two cockroaches to
the man, and demanded an explana-
lion.
"T'm certainly very sorry, SIR
stammered the steward. I don't un-
ierstand 1t at all. I hadn't an idea
them two cockroaches was in that
there cup of coffee when I give 1t to
you. They float, usually. you know,
sir, and when l see one always take
1t out, Of course, sir, before servin'.'"

America views today the first seri-

The grim realty of the struggle is
forced home with blood and iron.

One of the most vital problems con-
fronting TIE American people today is
the necessity of supplying our Allies
with something to cit. Europe is
short of food. She must have bread
and butter. Millions of bu:hcls of
wheat, as well as huge quantities of
beef, pork, sugar and dairy products
are actually needed If the world is
to be safe for Democracy, America
must come to the rescue of those who
fight for us and with us-WITH
FOOD.
Herbert Hoover, United States Food
Administrator says it can be done if
every true American will eat of these
particular foods and more of other
foods of which we have an abundance
but cannot be shipped long distance
and waste less of all foods
In order to get an expression of
faith from twenty-five million
families who purchase and consume
food daily, that each family will do
everything in its power to conserve
food of America that the Allies may
have enough to eat, both on battlefield
and at home, the United States Food
Administrative has launched nation
wide Food Pledge Campaign.
The campaign will open on Sunday
morning, October 2lst, and close SUM-
day night, Nov. 4th. Every house.
wife in America will be asked to sign
pledge card that she is glad to join
in the Food Conservation for our ma
ton and accepts membership in the
United States Food Administration,
pledging herself to carry out the
directions and advice of the Food Ad-
ministration in her home, insofar as
her circumstances will permit. No
fees, no dues, no contributions are ask
ed, just signature with her adj
drcss) that is an cyide ce of loyalty
to support the splendid effort of the
Food Administration.
North Dakota has sacred and spec
ial duty to perform in this great food
conservation movement. During the
week of October twcnty-first every
family in this state will be asked to
sign a food pledge card which is a
promise to the Federal Government
that North Dakota is squarciy behind
the Nation and Allies. No state in
the Union is so distinctly agricultural.
With the one exception of sugar, ev-
cry product necessary to feed our
fighting friends across the sea-wheat,
beef, pork and dairy p-oducts-is rails
ed on our farms. If we just try it
will not be difficult to conserve and
send larger quantities of these foods
to Europe. We produce what they
need. In other words, if every house.
wife of $4,000 families in our state
will do her utmost in saving daily, in
substituting whenever possible the
amount conserved will be extra large.
In order to make this. Food Pledge

first tremendous success and prove
to the world that there is something
to the story that the war will be won
on the farms Of the Dakotas, it will
be necessary to enlist every force, in
dividual and collective. A successful
outcome of the campaign is assured if
North Dakota goes into this Food Con-
servation Movement with its usual un-
stinted energy. Nothing is impossible
to accomplish by North Dakota citi-
zens. A hundred and thirty-eight
thousand families can and will be en-
rolled.
