SATURDAY RECORDED AS LONG
EST DAY OF YEAR.

Saturday, June %, will go down
i'm history as beirg not only the long
est day in the year, but one OF the
very longest Paris has ever known.
Because of the change OF tune
when the National clock jumped up
one hour, the sun seemed to rlse
earlier. and bade fair to last longer
than on any other occasion since the
United States adopted universal
time.
In addition to the unusual length
of the day it will go on record as
having been one of the coolest Gays
for June for many years. At night
a chilly wind sprang up, and the
mercury dropped several degrees
EYtra covers were in demand when
paris people retired to their nightly
sIeep- IT became necessary to wear
wrans and shirt-sleeved men found
their coats not at all uncomfortable
The cool wave. continued until lats
SUNDAY afternoon, when the temper
sfure gradually arose to comforta

CITIZENS OF PARIS READ! THIS
CONCERNS YOU!

Public notice has frequently been
given that you should boil all water
used for domestic or drinking pur-
poses, whether it be from hydrant
we'll, cistern or spring. There may
be water-borne disease at any time
of the year, more especially, how
ever during the late summer and
autumn months.
This Board has no information to
suspect such disease or diseases pres
emily, yet it realizes such possibili-
ty, and the object of this notice is to
protect the public against any dan
ger from this source.
Don't be unfair and say you have
never seen nor heard of this notice.
The quickest means to reach all the
people is through city's local pa
pers, hence this communication.
Again, WATER-BORNE DISEASES
ARE ABSOLUTELY PREVENTED
BY BOILING WATER. Will you
heed this admonition or will you will
fully or neglfgently pursue the even
tenor of your way and' regard this
notice as worthless? 1t is up to you.
Antiques in furniture may be all
right. In milldams they are danger
Gus, and this Board so condemns.
Changes in treatment of the water
supply have been recently suggested
and are now in operation.

ENERPRISING WAR GARDEN

Out on Stoner Avenue, near the
intersection of Vine street, there is a
narrow strip of land, probably one
hundred feet long by about six feet
in width, at the top of the steep bank
sloping down to Stoner Creek, which
has been converted into war gar
den by a resident of the immediate
vicinity.
The narrow strip of waste land is
now supporting a bountiful growth
of vegetables, beans, potatoes, beets,
and other forms of health-giving
and life supporting vegetables.
The garden" is as carefully tended
as those of its more pretentlous
neighbors, and, though situated on
the side of a dusty and much-trav-
eled roadway, is kept well-watered
and seems to be fiourishing.

VOLUNTEERS DOING GOOD WORK

Farmers who were in the city on
business yesterday state that the vol
unteer workers in the harvest fields
of the county have been doing ex-
cellent work. The farmers have
shown them a little more considera-
ton than the older experienced
workers, as a matter of course, but
at that they state the men and boys
have shown a surprising willingness
and many of them went at it as they
do at a game of some kind, yet with
spirit and a hearty good will that
was encouraging. BY the help thus
gained several hundred acres OF
wheat have been harvested that
might have been yet in the shock
but for this~timely aid.
The patriotic side of the men has
had a stimulating effect upon loaf
ers who have been holding out for
$500 and $500 per day for harvest
field work Now that the new va
grant law is in effect and the volun-
teers are in the fields the ex-loafers
are glad to get jobs at $500 and
$500 per day, which is considered
good wages. Glowing reports are
given by the volunteers of the ex'
cellent dinners served them by the
wives of the farmers.
