HISTORIC STRUCTURES
IN BELGIUM SAVED

Brussels, Dec. ~, 1918.-Among the
structures whicsh escaped Hun de-
struction is the Hotel de Vile in Brus-
sells. It was originally a house Of
Alderman, but it was rebuilt in the
fifteenth century. Many changes have
made in the structure during the CEN
turtles, but it's ancient beauty has not
been marred and Belgians rejoice that
it has not been destroyed. Opposite
the Hotel de Vile is the Maison du
Roi, another building of historical and
architectural interest

Farm Labor Shortage Exaggerated.

Farm Labor Shortage Exaggerated.
The labor troubles Of the American
farmer, or the possibility that the
farmer will be handicapped in raising
a large crop through lack Of help is
largely a matter of anticipation rather
than actual fact, according to figures
given in a classification of the men
from all occupations taken into the
military and naval service. Up to the
present time less than seven per cent
Of the total farm labor has been taken
into the service, and there is little pos
sibility that this percentage will be
materially Increased before the next
crop is harvested. ''The food situation
is fundamental" says the national
food administration, "and the govern
ment will give just as much attention
to the proper harvesting of crop as
it will give to the production of war
machinery and munitions. The farmer
should plant a record acreage and he
can be assured that the government
will find him solution for any pos
sible lack of labor that may arise"
