Lesson Of the Frost.

Vermont farmers and gardeners suf
fered a severe reverse at the hands Of
the Frost army but they will bring up
their reserve energy and present solid
front again. 1t is quite imperative that
there be no lessening of the projected
food crops, so all should turn to the re-
planting with vim, Barre Times.
We can take little lesson with profit
from the destruction of crops in Yer
mon by an unexpected frost, in connec-
ton with our national wheat supply.
The indications are that we will have a
bumper wheat crop. Shall we eat it up
If it materializes, or shall we continue
to save as we have been doing, thus Gre
ating reserve against sh1rt crop next
year? OF course, if we are wise, we will
conserve If bumper crops were the rule
conservation after the harvest would not
be necessary, but farming is one of the
most uncertain of all occupations, as this
weeks frost proves. The state food adj
ministrator, Frank H. Brooks, had it
right when he said to-day at his county
meeting in this city that we must not
permit ourselves to run so near the edge
as we have had to run this year, with
defeat because of food shortage a con
slant menace to the allied cause, and the
way to prevent it is to save while the
saving is good. The substitution pro
gram has undoubtedly been enlisted for
the duration of the war.--St. Adams
Messenger.

London, July 3.-The German. Finnish
coming against the Murmansk region in

mitted from Copenhagen by the Elk

The German army in Finland, it is
added, has increased in the past few
weeks to $4,000. The British consul at
Helsingfors told correspondent of the

AMERICA is THINNING
DEMOCRACY At HOME
By Fighting for 1t in France, Declares
John Collier of New York in Ad-
dress Delivered at Pitts
burg Last Night.

Pittsburg, Pa, July 3.--America is
winning democracy at home by fighting
for it in France, declared John Collier
of New York, president of the National
Community Center association, in an adj
dress he delivered here last night before
meeting of the National Education as
ISOLATION. Advocating the organization of
community centers in every village, town
and city in the United States, Mr.. Col
lier said:
"The community council represents
democracy every day in contrast with
the earlier political method which rep
resented democracy once year. The
community council summons every man,
woman and child into national activity
and the program of the community coun,
ell is the whole civil and social program.
Every man, woman and child invests
himself, not only his money, but his
moral, physical and personal self in the
national enterprise. He becomes the
bearer of that burden of ultimate re-
sponsibility which our fighting soldiers
bear, which our industrial workers bear,
which our president bears Not merely
by assembling in meetings and shout
ing does he bear this burden. The com
munity council means taking definite re-
sponsibilities for war finance, for the
promotion Of health in all aspects, for
the widening of educational advantage,
for the organizing, of wholesome leisure
life These responsibilities are carried
out as part of eyeryones daily life.
Already the community council
movement is modifying both the meth.
DDS of war-work and the way in which
neighbors look upon each other in thous-
ands of communities. Two years hence
we will see that American life has turned
decisive corner, has emerged upon
greater highway, has hitched its wagon
to a star Community councils are the
technical name for this quiet revolution
which is taking place, under the leader
ship OF our president.
