msrcial Club, marked an epoch in the
history Of this organization, and also
Of the city.

was thoroughly appreciated and en-
joyed by the large crowd.
During the meal, Green's orchestra
played a number of fine selections,
interspersed with several fine vocal
solos by Mrs. Peter Hansen. One of
her songs, Victory" which was
very favorably received, was COM
posed by G. S. Green.
1t might be remarked in passing,
that everything on the tables was a
home product, so far as possible, ana
the elegant rolls were made from
wheat grown by w. Allen Jones, and
turned into Cream of the Valley
flour by the Valley Mills.
After the bountiful meal was fin
ished and the tables cleared, Presi-
dent Jones called the meeting to
order and asked all soldiers and sail
ors to stand and each received an
ovation.
The first speaker on the program
was Geo. McFadden, Manager Of the
fine new Pathfinder hotel at Fremont

point.

Farm Buildings

Cheapness of construction, If it
affects the strength or durability. is
poor economy 10 farm buildings.
Strength and durability are essen.
tials. There is some danger of
making buildings too expensive.
They should be in keeping with the
value of the land and the stock and
grain which they are to shelter.
City bred farmers are apt to spend
too much money on farm buildings.
Often, a misguided wealthy man
will invest a large amount in farm
building, hoping that it will be a
model for his neighbors. Buildings
should, like all farm investments,
pay interest on the investment.
There is more danger. however, that
the buildings will be too cheap than
too expensive. The present high
cost of building materials will be
responsible for that.
Missouri farmers are demanding
better buildings Due to increased
prices, better care is being taken OF
all farm products. Live stock must
have better shelter. Hay aud grain
must be carefully protected from
the weather. Better living condi
tons for the family are necessary
In response to this demand for bet.

Numerous Land Sales

A land boom is on all over the
Mississippi valley. In Iowa. Illinois,
and Missouri especially, farms are
changing hands more rapidly than
for many years.
In Shelby county. some farms
have changed hands as many as
three times within a few weeks.
Many Iowa and Illinois farmers are
selling their farms at from $500 to
$500 per acre and coming to Mis-
souri, to buy land at from. $50 to
$3.50 Local merchants and bankers
are also buying farms.

Presidential Campaign

~sSAAS fSNAA
The two great forces that create
the world are Capital and Labor.
Each is necessary to the other, each
must have just treatment. and each
should have its share in the man

the two jointly engage But the
present social system gives the
management to the Capital alone.
BY the formation of labor unions.
Labor does obtain greater con-
troll over destinies and in sense
shares in industrial management
But this share is obtained largely
through force or the threat thereof
A permanent arrangement for a
harmonious cooperative basis
could accomplish far more for both
parties.
In his recent message to Congress-
President Wilson, with his clear
vision of the currents of social
progress. issued a ringing appeal

Not Negotiable

Recent Statements appearing in
the public prints tending to indicate
that War Savings Stamps may be
used as collateral to secure loans,
or for other purposes, are erroneous,
according to statement by L. A.
Wilson, Federal Director for the War
Savings Organization for the Eighth
Federal Reserve District.
1t is directly antagonistic to the
Federal law. says Wilson. The law
explicitly states that War Savings
Stamps are not negotiable and may
not be transferred by the holder.
He may if necessity demands that
he obtain the money he has invest
ed in them, give ten days notice
and have them redeemed at any
post Office. But to negotiate them
through any channel not prescribed
by the Government is prohibited.
