Woodrow Wilson was never elected to
set the clock ahead, the Jewell Repuh-
licau says. He was elected to keep US
out of war and reduce the high cost OF
living Wright Co., Mo Republican.
Sure! And hasn't he kept us out
of war splendidly? And aren't
things cheap now? 1t is not proper
to kick, but wait patiently for 1920,
when Americans will be once more
in charge to act for the best interests
of America.

Under Section 2, Chapter 60 Of the
Acts of 1918, the clerk Of election is
required to furnish each voter who
presents himself at the polls ballot
on the, prohibition amendment. This
opinion was given by Assistant At
torney General d. o. Myat, at Frank
fort, in answer to a query to whether
the clerk of election should present to
each voter a ballot to be voted on the
mendment whether the voter request
ed it or not. Mr.. Wyatt is of the opin-

Of the structure for which they are

intended, there are delays and cease
less difficulties. At the very best II
we we're driving our construction ac-
tivities to the limit it would still take
us four or five years to catch up with
the accumulated needs of the coun-
try, and we would then be busy for
years to come keeping pace with these
growing needs.
There is, however, still another fac
tor to be considered, and that 6s the
enormous movement of population
which is going ON at an accelerating
rate from the country to the city.
Between 1900 and 1909 city popu-
lation INCREASED by 12,ooo,ooo,
against an increase of 100000 in
country population. Since 1919 the
growth has continued even more rap
idly, but census statistics are not
vet available to give the actual in
crease. The rush Of people from the
country to the cities continues un-
ahated. Indeed, for the last few years
under the stimulation of the enor-
nous wages paid, men have flocked
to the cities, abandoning the farms
in order to share in this great wage
intoxication from which the country
has been suffering since the gov
eminent began its profiteering cam
paign of paying $40 and $15 a day
and often still more to unskilled la
her for the building of war camps
and for other purposes.
These conditions are responsible
for much of our unrest. Millions of
people are suffering from the lack
of homes without understanding the
reasons, and they are being made by
yellow journalism and still yellower
politicians to believe that it is all due
to some great profiteering campaign
of property owners and house build
ers. The public is being misled to the
serious disadvantage of the country
and to the development of spirit of
turmoil for which the uninfotmed
can scarcely be blamed. They do not
know the cause of these troubles and
they are constantly fed up day after
day by wild statements without the
shadow of a foundation. They are
told that all of this lack of homes
and the high rents connected there
with are due to some wide spread
profiteering campaign, and do not
know why the shortage exists and
why it is difficult at present for con-
tractors and builders to go into
house construction with the same
vigor which prevailed in former years
when they knew what the material
would cost, what the labor con-
nected with the work would do, and
could, therefore, see their way clear.
AT the present time the builder knows
whatever as to what is ahead
of him when he undertakes a con-
tract to erect chicken coop, a fac
tory, church or a dwelling.-Man-
ufacturers' Record.

The material from the Lake well has not yet been fully ex- amined. It may be possible by ex- amining the fossils to determine the geologic ages and horizons of the beds penetrated and to esaimate the depth at which the Clinton sand should lie beneath the bottom of this well.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-During the last few years the Hope Natural Gas Company and the Peoples Nat ural Gas Company, both of Pitts burgh, Pa, have been drilling deeI wells in northern West Virginia and southwestern Pennsylvania to find deeper oil-bearing and gas-bearing sands, their object being to reach, if possible, the horizon of the rich Clinton sand of Ohio, which, accord, ing to Dr. I.

Y. M. c. A. Entertains 80
Soldiers Brought Here
From Military Hospital

Convalescent soldiers from Car
Isle had a big time in Harrisburg
yesterday. The regular weekly en-
tertainment by the "Y" proved q big
offered and was greatly enjoyed. Red
Cross trucks driven by Red Cross
girls brought thirty soldiers from
Carlisle, arriving at the Central Y.
NJ. G. A. at o'clock in the after
noon.
They were taken to PaXtang ParI.
Here the Harrisburg Railways ofll-
cials offered everything free to the
soldiers and they had big time.
They attended the vaudeville pea :
formance in the theater, had rides
on The Whip, Merry -Go-Round and
the Derby Racer and wound up
with an exhibition of parachute
jumping by King Kelley.
From the park the boys return
ed to the Y. NJ. C. A. to enjoy a
well-cooked dinner prepared by the
"Y's" caterer, consisting of chicken
soup, roast lamb and Drowned
gravy, mashed potatoes, string
beans. stewed tomatoes, salad ice
cream and coffee.
During the dinner Marion F. Sour
beer, Jr., presided at the piano and
entertained the boys with some of
his famous "jazz."
The women present and serving
at the table were the Misses Hep

and Mrs. Tucker and Mrs. Ewing.

Germans Must Increase
Coal Production or Freeze
and Starve This Winter

Berlin, Thursday, Aug. IA COM
mission of employers and workers
was appointed at yesterdays coal
conference of experts from all parts
of Germany to devise means of IN.
creasing the production of coal 50
that Germany will not freeze or
starve during the coming winter. It's
first session was held to-day at the
Ministry of Labor.
The only result of yesterdays con-
ference seemed to be the pointing
out that the situation is desperate.
NO concrete steps were decided
upon, but the conference was unani-
nous in its view that the situation
must be improved at any price.
Although experts made a large
number of suggestions, it was rec
ognZed that hard work would be
one OF the best solutions of the
problem.
The situation seems to be critical.
Germany has succeeded in inducing
France to admit that her demand
FOR forty million tons of coal an
nually was a physical impossibility,
but 1t appears that Germany can
not even hope to have enough coal
TO meet the country's most urgent
needs. The people have been warned
already to prepare for the comma
winter and laymen are rapidly be-
ing converted to the opinion that
the government should sacrifice
some of the national forests, arguing
that 1T would be better to encroac n
on part of Germany's potential cap
ltal than to allow freezing and star
walton. The idea, however. does not
appear TO meet with favor.
