Why Not A Brick
Plant At Circle?

Why could not brick plant be
started here at Circle? We un-
derstand that we have the clay,
that tests have been made and
proven to be of a good quality.
There is no question but what
a brick plant here at Circle would
be wonderful thing There are
many local business concerns that
would erect fine new buildings
this coming season, if good brick
could be manufactured right here
so as to avoid the freighting from
railroad points, which is too big
an additional expense at the pre-
sent time to make building of
brick worth while.
The building up of such an en-
terprise would not require great
amount of capital, it is said. and
would be splendid opportunity
build up a manufacturing enter
prise that would be of vast bene-
fit to Circle, and neighboring
towns in the valley.
We think the proposition wor-
thy of investigation and if parties
could be found to start such a |
plant, they would no doubt find it |
a paying proposition.

Food Situation
In Germany Most
Critical KmO1Um

Washington. May 21.-The food
situation in Germany. officials here
believe. is the most critical it has
been at any time. Information
reaching Washington from many
sources indicates that even with the
reduced ration planned for June l,
the country will not have enough
food to carry the population through
to the next harvest and that further
reductions will have to be made.
The reduced ration was to have
been put into operation March l, but
the measure was postponed in the
hope that grain would be forthcom-
ing in large quantities from the
Ukraine. When this hope vanished
the German government saw the re-
duction was inevitable. Germany be-
gan consuming her 1917 wheat crop
two months before 1t was intenedd
to start on it and the German po-
tato crop has not turned out nearly
so we'll as German agricultural in
terestS had hoped.

With the American Army in
France, Monday, May 2O.-Before
the body Of Major Raoul Lufbery
was placed in a grave near a certain
| French village, 1t lay in state in a
room Of q small frame building.
Around it were hundreds of wreaths
of flowers sent by American COM

known him in the French army, and
by French army corps.
Atop all the handsome wreaths
was a little bunch of wild roses and
daisies, to which was attached a
piece Of paper saying that it came
from Major Lufbery's orderly and
mentioning many kindnesses. With
tears in his eyes the orderly came
up to the casket and reVerenuy plac
ed the flowers on it.
Official confirmation is still lacking
to the report that the German air
plane responsible for the death OF
| Major Lufbery had been brought
down by a French aviator.
The funeral Of Major Lufbery was
very impressive. The pallbearers,
| three American and three French
aviators, carried the ag-draped cof-
fin from the little frame building to a
motor car for the trip to the grave.
| The procession was led by an Amer

infantry just from the trenches and
q. company of French infantry. Fol-
lowing the coffin were 200 American
and French officers. including all Of
