PATRIOTIC
tlUSIC AT OHIO FAIR
Management Announces Coming
Of Famous SGVenty-tirSt Regi-
Tnent Band Of New York.

Even the music at the Ohio State
Fair, the last week in August, will
be patriotic-in keeping with the gen.
eral spirit Of the great Buckeye expo
sition this year. There will be an
abundance Of martial airs rendered by
organizations that will reflect the
military spirit of the times.
Good music is exacted by the fair
management and it has primary con-
sideration when the program of enter
tainment is prepared The big music
attraction at the coming fair will be
New York City's famous Seventy first
Regiment Band of 40 pieces. directed
by Lieut.. Lambert L. Eben. This is
one of the first bands of the nation,
and, as its director is one of the three
bandmasters who have been commits
stoned lieutenants by the Government,
it may be expected that it will feature
the patriotic selections so popular
with the masses today.
There also will be another strong
band organization at the fair, that of
Fred w. LOeWer, or Toledo. This is
one of the most popular bands in the
country and has played at Ohio State
Fairs for several years.
Real old-time martial music, the
kind that makes one want to get out
and march, is promised by Major R.
H. Hendershott, the original drummer
boy of the Rappahannock, and his son,
H. B. Hendershott. They are drum
mers and fifers and have been before
the public 25 years. Fair Manager
E. V. Walborn was anxious to have
the Hendershotts at the coming fair,
because of the military touch they
will add to the exposition.
Howard's orchestra of colored musi.
clans and singers also will entertain
on the grounds and there will be other
musical organizations.

FRENCH LAUNDRIES ARE FINE
American Soldier Says the Only Trou.
BILE Is Getting Your Own
Clothes Back.

New York.-"French village laun-
dries are wonderful places to the
American soldiers" writes R. J. Kirk,
a former Pacific Coast newspaper man
now doing duty over there, to an old
time friend here.
'Tn fact, every French hamlet has
a municipal washhouse," he continues.
"It is generally a stone shed built over
a RAINING stream. Here the old
French widows wash the American
soldiers clothes. Soldiers are sup
posed to wash their own clothes, but
not many Of them do it unless it is Il
long way from payday, or else they're
leaving most of their francs with the

Ignores Order; Heavily Fined.

Delaware, O., Aug. 3.-Recently the
state fire marshal ordered E. A.
Schaubs of Redwood, Union county,
to tear down one-story frame build
ing, which was pronounced a fire trap
and menaced a grain elevator, pack
ing plant and other buildings.
Schaubs ignored the order and the
department took steps to have him
punished. He was fined $1,620.S0 by
Mayor Baumgardner of Redwood for
his failure to obey the order.

The Republicans are having Kilken'
ny-cat fight for the nomination for Gov
ernor, and many nasty compliments are
being hurled at the candidates by their
partisan followers. It makes little dif-
ference whom they nominate, for the
friends of the defeated candidates will
help the Democrats to smother his po-
litical aspirations. James NJ. Cox was
surely born under a lucky star. Even
the Republican hosts fight for him.

CROWDER URGES SPEED

Provost Marshal General Crowder
has said that the national selective
service machinery must speed up OPP
erations Immediately to make it pos
sible to get men from the new eigh-
teen to forty-five registration on the
way to army environments by the end
of October.
Outlining changes in methods
adopted to that end, General Crowd
er said questionnaires would go out
to registrants before the drawing
has been conducted to determine
their order of call, and that local
boards would be urged to commence
classification Immediately. CUES
tons relating to the order of call
and to the time of drawing General
Crowder set aside in discussing the
subject, leaving only the intimation
that these would be announced
shortly.

We do not believe that anything
that has come out of Germany in
many months is quite so impressive
as General Won Ardenne's impas-
sional appeal to the German people
to emulate the glorious constancy of
the French, and refrain frsm COM
planning during a period Of military
disaster.
For years or so ago the Germans
expressed and we doubt not felt
nothing but contempt for the French.
They had conquered the French In
1870 and conquered them rather
more easily than they had anticipat-
ed. They had observed with scorn
the establishment Of a republican
form of government in France, and
the gradual extension to republican
ideas. Lastly, they had learned from
unmistakable evidence that the
French did not care for war and
much preferred to live in peace with
their neighbors, and the disciples of
the Religion of Valor at once con-
Guided that nation that did not
care for war must be nation Of
towards and degenerates.
We have heard great deal in the

last few years of the mistakes the
Germans have made in regard to
other nations, but not one Of their
mistakes was comparable in its con-
sequences to their error about the
French. They said and undoubtedly
they believed that the French armies
would go down before the German
hosts like corn before the reaper.
They expected to take Paris in six
weeks from the beginning. of the war,
and they thought that after Paris
was taken France would make peace
at any price. They did not take
Paris and they now know and many
of them freely acknowledge that had
Paris fallen France would still have
fought ON.
This error in regard to- the stamina
of the French existed in other ma
tons than Germany, although per-
haps nowhere TO the same degree. AT
any rate we do not know of another
compliment that has been paid to the

ing to forego the high percentages
of the packers proceeds which are
now being paid for live stock.
"The farmer is interested in see
ing that the stock he raises is burd-
ened with the least manufacturing
costs possible. The packing industry
ranks near the bottom, so far as
manufacturing costs are concerned.

which the packers paid 81, AL ,000,-

PACKERS PAY FARMER
HIGH PRICES

"That some farmers should be dis
turbed by the suggestion of Federal
operation of the packing industry
is quite natural" said @. Howard
Davidson, of Millbrook, N. Y, chair
man of the executive committee of
the national agricultural committee,
"They realize" he continued, "that
the only way a Federal administrator
could really cheaper the price of
meat products would be to fix low
err price for live stock.
"Out of each dollar of proceeds
which the packer receives for his
animal products 81 cents was paid
for live stock in 1917 and 90 or 81
cents is paid now. The figures in the
year prior to 1914 was so cents.
This increased percentage to the FAR
mer has been brought about by the
economies Of large scale production.
Farmers are patriotic, and they
will do their share and will continue
their cooperation whether the gov
eminent takes over the packing bust
ness or not. If there were assurances
that Federal operation would in
crease production, lower consumers
