1O1 German Lies Nailed.

Washington, d. C.-German propagan-
dists have been busy since the entry of
the United States into the war. False
hoods of every character have been
spread over every section of the country
with the idea of abusing the confidence
of the American people. So persistent
has been the circulation of these careful
ly moulded pro-German lies that an off,
cial exposure of them has been issued as
a pamphlet, entitled "The Kaiserite in
America" by the Committe on Public
Information, 8 Jackson Place, Washing
ton, D. c. A copy of this pamphlet may
be had free if inquiry be directed to the
Committee.
Tales have been current about interned
German prisoners being fed five meals
day, about Red Cross supplies being sold
to shopkeepers by dishonest officials, by
criminal waste of food at training camps
and many other like falsehoods either de-
signed to discourage volunteer Red Cross
work and the moral efforts of housekeepers
to save food or calculated to create a
troublesome distrust of the Government.
The circulation of these stories is often
due to the folly of a citizen who wishes
to appear to have inside information"
and who either innocently or intention
ally starts a lie that rapidly grows worse
as it spreads A collection of such lies
and their refutation has been made by
the St. Louis Republic. A hundred of
them are included in "The Kaiserite in
America.

FORD'S GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Week April 18th, the brilliant Ameri-
can comedian, William Collier, in his lat
est comedy success,
NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH"
Run of an entire year in New York.
William Collier, the famous American
comedian, comes to Ford's week of April
18th. appearing for the first time here in
Nothing But The Truth, the farcical
play in three acts which ran an entire
season at the Metropolis.
Mr.. Collier has become America s
foremost comedian but not without hard
work and study. He began his career on
the stage as boy and has kept at it ev-
er since, improving his art as the years
rolled by.
In his new comedy and laughing sue
cess, "Nothing But The Truth, in which
this magnetic comedian is starring, he
plays the role of broker who tries to
convince his partners that they do en-
tirely too much fibbing in their business
as well as their social affairs.
They tell him you couldn't do business
successfully without lying, and they Of
fer to wager ten thousand dollars he
couldn't tell the truth for single twen-
ty four hours. He accepts the wager
and his troubles begin.

the cast of the New York production.

These are twin evils. Persons suffer-

with constipation. Mrs. Robert Allison,

Food distressed her and there was feel
ing like heavy weight pressing on her
stomach and chest She did not rest we'll
at night. and felt worn out good part
of the time. One bottle of Chamber

Community Meetings Held.
County Agents Address Farm
ers Here and There.

ers Here and There.
Wolfsville, thriving little mountain
community, held it's second regular Com
munity Club Meeting last Wednesday
night. In spite of rain and it being the
third public affair of the week, the folks
who were interested in their community
turned out in creditable manner. Mr..
Hauver, County Agent, discussed lime and
soy beans. Miss Nelson, Home Demon
strator, talked on the wise selection OF
food from standpoint of both nutrition
and patriotism.
Libertytown bids fair to have live
community organization. At the meet
ing last Thursday evening, Mr.. F. B.
Bomberger, Assistant Director of the
Extension, talked on Community Inter-
est and Responsibility" Mr.. Hauver
and Miss Nelson discussed problems of
increase production and conservation.
Although the audience small it made up
in quality what it lacked in numbers.
Those present manifested an interest in
community betterment, and no doubt
these people will take definit action in
perfecting Community Club organiza-
tion at the next meeting.
Walkersville again had an interesting
Community Club meeting on Monday
night. Though the rain prevented farm
ers from attending. the best leaders of
the town were there to devise ways and
means of making Walkersvlle a place
that the rest of Frederick county can
look to with PRIDE An interest is now
being aroused in a community show to
be held next fall. Every community that
has held such show can testify to its
value as means of enc ouraging produc-
ton and more efficient methods of farm
ing and housekeeping. This year special
stress will be laid on exhibits that en-
courage production and conservation OF
food. Articles that are not serviceable
enough to contribute to the winning of
the war will not be listed therefore cam
dies. cakes, crocheting and embroidery
will have no place on the prize list. Mr..
Hauver, county agent. discussed soy
beans and lime; Miss Nelson, Home Dem
onstration Agent, talked on the need for
increased poultry production, garden
acreage, and conservation of food.
DR.. Wehler of Hood College gave a
most interesting talk on the present war
situation. In most sincere manner he
pleaded for greater loyalty to the Gov
ernment, and increased cooperation with
every organization that promotes the
winning of the war at this time of need.
He told them that Hood College is put
ting itself on the map as an institution
that will do its utmost to both produce
and conserve food, and that it is the duty
of every American Citizen to serve his
country in every possible way. Miss
Helen Stauffer of Walkersville told of
the need of more Red Cross Workers to
fill emergency government orders. She
also pleaded for an interest in Com
munity Show, and assured the County
Agent and Home Demonstration that
they would spare no efforts in promoting
this Community affair. Rev. Shilke also
emphasized the need for such an exhibi-
tion, and stated that Mr. Hauver and
Miss Nelson could be assured of their
hearty CO. operation in this Community
project.

Nature Cures, The Doctor Takes the
Fee.
There is an old saying that Mature
cures, the doctor takes the fee," but as
everyone knows you can help Nature
very much and thereby enable 1t to effect
a cure in much less time than is usually
required. This is particularly true of
colds. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
relieves the lungs, liquities the tough
mucus and aids in expectoration, allays
the cough and aids Nature in restoring
the system to healthy condition.
