A Mendon woman beyond middle age.
hearing from her son, an enlisted man
at Camp Greene, Charlotte, n c.. that
he was suffering from the cold for lack of
a sweater, walked the four miles to Rut
land, not owning team, purchased the
warn and then walked back to her home.
She had no knitting needles and her hus-
band whitfield some for her out of wood.
The sweater grew apace until late one
night when the yarn gave out, with the
garment not quite completed. The next
morning her husband walked to Rutland
and back for the yarn TO finish it and
remarked they hoped to get the sweater
off on the midnight mail, which would
cause one or the other of the couple to
again make the eight mile walk.

This annual function has been an
established affair for many years and

of last week. The table for the grad
yates was decorated with beautiful ef-
feet in the class colors, red, white and

tables were in green and white, colors
of the juniors, and the dainty spirea
formed just the right color scheme.

Regarding Soldiers Kits.

Mrs. N. b. Herbert, chairman of the
local chapter Red Cross wishes us to
say that the ladies are anxious to fur
nish every soldier boy from Yale and
Brockway township with comfort
kit. So many of the boys are joining
the colors that it is easy for an oc-
casional one to get by without this
kit, but parents having sons in train
ing camps, or others who know of boys
there who have been missed, are asked
to notify Mrs. II. g. Martin, chairman
of this committee, and the matter will
receive prompt attention.

MANY ATTRACTIONS
August 9th and 7th Will Be Big Days for
Yale,-Some Big Features Already
Arranged for Caledonian Days

Providing the weather man doesn't
flare up on us August 9th and 7th, the
Yale Caledonian Association will pre-
sent two'day program at the city
park that has never been equalled.
OF course you know the foremost
thing at Caledonian celebration is
the piping and dancing. Last year we
had two pipers, eight dancers, singer
and pianist from the celebrated Mac
Phail Troup, of Detroit. The verdict
of the crowd was that better entertain
ment had never before appeared in
Yale, consequently this same troupe
will be here in August -MacPhail and
Fraser, pipers, the same eight little
dancers, Miss Scott, singer, and Miss
Rose, pianist. Besides those mention
ed, Mr.. MacPhail informs US that he
will bring young lady who will sing
patriotic songs at the park and also at
the Scotch concert.
Word from Selfridge Field, Mount
Clemens, is as follows;-"Weather per-
mitting, will have plane or planes fly to
Yale on afternoons of August 9th and
7th to assist in your Red Cross work
This message comes direct from the
commanding officer.
On the afternoon of Tuesday, Aug.
9th, Governor A. +. Sleeper will be an
honored guest of the city, and will give
an address at the park.
For the average person this would be
program enough for two days, but the
association promises a good base ball
game each day and plenty of athletic
sports, aud other attractions.
On Tuesday evening, Aug. 9Th, there
will be a big Scotch concert at the
Auditorium, and it will be well worth
staying to see and hear.
Wednesday evening, Aug. 9TH there
will be grand ball at the Auditorium,
for which the best Uf music will he
furnished There will also be dancing
Tuesday evening after the concert.
Remember, this celebration is for the
benefit of the Red Cross-they to get
every cent over and above the actual
expenses, and everybody is asked to
boost and help make it winner.

How Navy Trains Youth

The whole service of the United
States navy is educational. At the
training station recruits get the rudi'
Iments Of naval training and of tech
inical instruction, which is continued
on shin board. "The American navy"
says the Secretary of the Navy, "offers
as fine an opportunity as exists to
the American youth who wishes to
win in the race of life. The vast
majority of boys in graded and high
schools study their geography out OF
books. The bluejacket studies geo.
graphy aboard ship and compares
the "book learning" with the real
thing as he clrcumnavigates the globe.
The school boy at home gets his his
tory out of the books, but the blue
Jacket may add to his book knowledge

ster Abbey, or sight Of the Coliseum

tunity of serving his country, learn

study, and travel"

Amateur Gardener.

A prominent business man Of Nash
willie, answering the call ITO plant a
garden" set out 80 cabbage plants,
which were given to him in the early
spring by farmer friend. The plants
received the very best Of care, being
,watered almost every evening and the
ground around the plants was kept
loose. The plants grew and grew until
they caused the new gardner" to
boast to his business friends that he
had the incest "patch" Of cabbage in
the county. With little "salt" his
friends swallowed his statements, but
after today no more will be heard
about his big cabbage. They were
found to be rape plants and not cab
!bage.

pends prosperity or our going broke"
Even at present high prices no one
can plant all Or nearly all cotton, buy
food and grain at present prices from
supply merchant on credit and make
money. Food and grain is higher in
proportion than are present cotton
prices.
It's time above all others to play
safe; to produce all possible food,
grain and forage supplies on your own
acres; to cut down the store bill.
A good piece of garden ground,
rightly planted, rightly tended and
kept planted the year round, can be
made to pay nearly half your living. 1t
will save you more money than you
made on the best three acres Of cotton
you ever grew!

FATHER OF MODERN LIBERTY
Simon De Montfort Credited With
Idea Which Led to the Present
Popular Representation.

The commons of England were
called to sit in parliament for the first
time in 1865, q little more than $50
years ago, and so years after King
John had been forced by the lnrons
to sign the Magma Charts.
The man responsible for this popu-
lar representation was Simon de Mont
fort, earl of Leicester, who was killed
in the battle of Evesham on August 4,
1865, only a few months after he had
gained place in history as the father
of the English house of commons. Un-
der his leadership the barons had
waged a successful war on King
Henry, and had taken the monarch
and his son, afterward Edward |, pris-
oners of war. Leicester, who had laiG
down the law that the king derives
his power from the people and must
use it for the public good, governed
for q time in the name Of the king,
and issued the ordinance in 1865, in
which each city and town was called
upon to Choose and send two dis
Greet, loyal and honest men" to rep
resent them in parliament. Thus was
laid the foundation Of the house Of
commons.

President Georgia Chamber Of Conn
merce Shows How Millions were
Saved Last Year

Atlanta, Georgia.-(Special. )-"More
money was saved in 1917 through the
medium of the home garden than ever
before, the United States Department
of Agriculture estimating that there
were fully one million new gardens
made last year." says H. G. Hastings,
President of the Southeastern Fair and
the Georgia Chamber of Commerce,
in an interview reviewing the 1917
farming operations in the South.
Thousands upon thousands Of our
people in the South said Mr. Hast
ings, "for the first time in their lives
learned to appreciate the money saw
ing power Of the home garden, proper
ly planned, prepared for. planted and
kept planted during the entire sea-
SON."
"Up to the present it has been very
hard to get our people to consider the
home garden seriously as real sub
stantial factor in food production with
the consequent saving of money that
went for food supplies at the store.
Unless we are much mistaken the
home garden will from now on be
taken as seriously as any other part
of the farm work.
"a quarter to half acre devoted
to variety of vegetables liked by the
family can be kept going nearly the
whole year in the South and give its
owner as much as the product of two
or three acres Of cotton, even at pres
ent prices, will buy at the store. The
right kind Of garden means an
abundance Of healthful food during
spring, summer and fall and an abund-
ance either canned or dried for win
ter use."
Let no one be fooled by the lies
spread abroad that the Government
is going to seize home canned goods
on closet shelves in the farm or
home These lies are started by Ger
man agents for the express purpose Of
discouraging our people in increased
food production and saving. Few can
go to the firing line, but all can join
in and have part in home produc-
ton of food.
1--WE have never seen a permanent
ly prosperous farm section either In
the United States or in foreign coun-
tries that was not diversified sec
ton, and in every diversified section
the home garden has an honored and
valued place. The home garden is
store bill cutter Of the first rank"
