GOOD RESPONSE
TO FARM CALL
Village Stores May Close to Aid at
Harvest

Chairman A. w. Dickens of the local
committee to canvass for farm help has
been busy this week investigating the
situation, and reported to County Ag-
ent Bartlett that the village can pro-
badly furnish Z or men a day through
the haying and harvesting season to
help the farmers. A movement is on
foot among the stores to close after
Moons three days week during the
busy farm season, releasing clerks and
some of the merchants themselves for
work in the fields Farmers who fore
see the need of help should communi-
cate at once with the Farm Brueau so
that assignments can be made.

Have You Bought a Liberty Bond?
THE ALLIES REPLY.

AS was to be expected, Great Brit
ain, speaking for the Allied Govern
ments, has replied to King Ferdi-
nand's request for an armistice in the
same tone as that employed by the
Allied military commander in Mace
donia-viz: There can be, at the
present time, no suspension of field
operations. Furthermore, it is point
any question of peace must involve
a complete severance of all relations
between Bulgaria and the other CEN
trail powers, and assurances that the
Allied troops in Macedonia will not
be hindered in their military maneu-
vers. The first thought of the AL
lies. of course, is to safeguard their
forces now pressing on through Bull
garia to AUSTRIA Hungary. The re-
ply of the Allies makes it clear that
there will be no attempt made just
torial settlement in the Balkans.
What the Entente Governments state,
in substance, is that if Bulgaria is
sincere in her desire for peace, she
must cut absolutely every connection
now existing between her and her al
lies and make no move which might
interfere with military operations in
the Balkans. And Furthermore Bull
garia must expect no promises in re-
turn. The Allies will not guarantee
her a single thing at the present
reply from London is worthy of spe-
cial consideration. 1t is most clever
ly worded. 1t implies that if the AL
lies reply is not acceptable to the
present government at Sofia, then it
is incumbent upon the BuIgars to
send representatives to whom the
terms will be acceptable. In other
words, it leaves u door open to the
Bulgarian people. If they want
peace, and their rulers will not ac-
cede to the Allies terms, then they
must overthrow the present govern
ment and send representative del
| egates with instructions to accept the
| dictates of the Entente.
This reply must meet with the
approval of everyone who has the
| success of the Allies at heart No
, compromise, no cessation of hostili-
| ties, no terms excepting complete
surrender by Bulgaria. AS Marshal
| Foch recently remarked, the Allies

VANISHED DREAMS.

Their vanished dreams wait through
the mist they left the home
fires burning,
10 face the shadow out beyond
and take their fighting chance,
And now, in endless marching sweep
without q backward turning
Their lines are blotting out the
roads, the long white roads of
France.
And ghosts OF years that used to be
before the final order,
And dreams Of years that wait
ahead beneath some friendly
sun,
Must fade together through the mist,
where out the shell swept Dor
der
Their goal is now the western front
until the job is done.
It's sweet enough to dream at dusk
h of eager, Wistful faces,
! Of eyes that look across the sea to
where the last track runs
Of maple Swallowed lanes that wind
through we'll remembered
places,
That come and go like. startled
ghosts bewildered by the guns.
It's sweet enough to dream and hear
the lonely night wind calling,
With ghosts of voices blown across
the weary miles between;
SO hear them whisper back to you,
as soft as rose leaves falling,
Of life where summer days were
long and summer fields were
green.
How many years it used to be no
body may remember,
For marching men have come be-
tween in never ending line,
And June, arrayed with shrapnel
snow, is bleaker than Deem
Der,
Where sul1en guns amid the mud
are waiting for the sign.
For Fate must gather in it's toll and
leave it's legions sleeping,
Where ghosts and dreams must
bide their time until the tale
is spun;
Must fade together in the mist where,
through the red dawn creep
Their goal is now the western
front until the job is done.

Stripes of France.

The Railroad Wage Increase.
(The New York IIerald.)

The order raising the pay of rail-
road workers in the Government
service, it is estimated, will add nearly
one hundred million dollars to the
yearly payroIls. 1t affects classes of
employees drawing relatively low
wages. Before the Government as
sumed control of the roads there were
already complaints that wages did
not meet the increased cost Of living
It is to be hoped that the advance VIII
prove satisfactory to the nearly a
