the way the packers are measuring up
10 war demands They are the efficient
machine with which the Food Admin
istration is working in handling the
prodigiOus tasks which Mr.. Mccarthy
speaks OF in his interview.
The whole story Of packer usefulness
in winning the war cannot be told in
a short letter however. One could be
written regarding the development OF
any one OF dozens OF by-prOducts
which are proving OF inestimable value
10 the nation. For instance, II was the
Armour auxiliary concern which en-
abled the government TO overcome the
handicap 10 our army occasloned by
the German monopoly OF potash suf-
flciently pure 10 produce the glass that
70 needed for our soldiers and sailors
binoculars, range finders and cameras.
II was packer experts who solved one
OF the most important problems incl
dent TO supplying our men with gas
masks. 10 Is a packer product that Is
used 60 stanch the flow Of blood from
the wounds OF our soldiers: it Is a
packer product which Is used TO sew
up the wounds; the soap with which
the soldiers clean up after their turn
IN the trenches Is a packer product
the glue which figures largely in the
manufacture OF airplanes comes from
the packers: the avlatOrs' sheep pelt
coats are packer products; glycerine
for use I'm explosives. animal oils for
lubricating purposes and leather FOR
harness, puttees and the like come
largely from packing houses.
The story Of what the packing in
dustry is dsing to win the war is a
romance all by itself II Is our inten-
tion 10 write up these matters from
time TO time and we will be glad tC
send them to you.
Hoping what little has been set forth
here will provide you with an inter.
esting news article and with material

that IS necessary TO meet war needs

very interesting meeting last night at
the Chamber Of Commerce rooms on

His advice to numerous inquiries
from ladies who were anxious to get

ELIZA COMES TO STAy"ss
Amateur Play Given by Senior Class
Of NJ. II. y. Last Night Was a
Great Success.

One of the best amateur plays ever
produced by the High School was
staged last night under the direction
Of Miss Florence Shaw and Miss Elsie
Heller. The settings and scenes of
the play were splendidly arranged
and the furnishings were appropriate,
which is not often the case with an
amateur play.
The first act opened with the Hon.
Sandy Verrall seated at breakfast, but
too excited to eat from the effect of
receiving legacy, which he thought
consisted of a golden haired little
girl. What the golden haired Eliza
proves to be is quite shock to all
concerned and in ELIAS arrival, APP
pearance and later transformation in
to something better than she appeared
at first, and the final captivating of
Uncle Sandy is the chief theme of the
plot.
Frank Browning took the part of
the Hon. Sandy Verrall Eugene Nc
Carthey, the part of his sporty uncle,
who wins Miss Vera Laurence from
his nephew, Sandy. Miss Vera Laur-
ence was played by Miss Georgia
Hicks, who made most successful
"vamp". Miss Lucy Jones, as Lady
Pennybroke, was very impressive ano
handsome. Miss Hazel Shelton played
the part Of abe nurse, Mrs. Allaway,
most successfully. Edward Barbour as
Montague, Jordan, Sandy's Oldest
friend and legal advisor, was excep-
tionally successful in his role as
middle aged old bachelor with a fad
for collecting bird eggs, but who
later becomes smitten with Eliza and
is much upset at the unusual situa-
tons which develop. Miss Margaret
Smith as Dorothy or Eliza, who comes
to stay, played her part with consid-
cradle originality and dash and acted
her part with much skill and ease

was our idea of what a butler should |
be.
The play was well acted by all con-
cerned and the teachers and students
deserve much credit for entertaining
MaysvilIe with such a clean and hui
little play. The proceeds
were given to the High School for
payment on Liberty Loan Bond pur-

French VictOriOus-Germans Repuls.
ed When They Attempt to Reach
Railroad.

Paris, April 5-German forces con-
tinued their attacks during the night,
says the official statement issued to-
day, by the War office. Notwithstand-
ing the superiority Of the German eff
fectives, which, the statement says,
were spent recklessinly, the Teutons
were unable to reach their objective
which was the railway from Amiens
to Clermont.
The French regiments by their re-
sistence and counter attacks main
tanned the line in its entirety, the War
Office announced. The French troops
conquered the greater part of Epi-
