THE TRIALS OF A
BOY FARMER
His Pig Died, but he Paid the Teach
err Just the Same

Thousands of youngsters through
out the country who with no thought
! for the worries that come to those
seeking to raise live stock joined pig
clubs and acquired in ez change for
the promise to pay $40 squeallng
young porker have now arrived at the
iday of accounting. The notes given
in exchange for the pigs Tnatured on
december /, and the organizations
which fosteIed the movem ent have
been having some troubles in collect
ling.
Many of those youngsters entirely
overlooked the fact that there is a
death rate among pigs and some of
them are faced by the necessity of
paying for pig which some time
ago ceased to be of any use and
which because of it's natural rather
than artificial death was worth less
than nothing as pork. Pig club Off
Gals, however, report that compare
lively few of the pigs died.
One embryo pig farmer; when he
received a request from the holders
of the notes. to pay $40 with six
months interest that came to 80 cents
, submitted his views on the entire
matter in letter to the pig club.
81 bought the pig from the teach
en-" he wrote, "and had till the first
of December to pay it, and I'm go
ing to pay it on the goth. And you
didn't tell us We had to pay interest
When we bought the pig she had a
f cold and she coughed till she died.
You came and saw the pig only once,
/ and you told US you would come and
( see the pig again, and it makes two
months that our pig is dead and buri-
ed. No matter if. she is dead, we are
going to pay it just the same. And
we are going to pay it to the teach
er. You didn't mention any bank
and we are going to pay it where we
bought it.
Many Of the young pork farmers
paid cash for the pigs, and it is said
that the trouble that has arisen from
trying to collect notes is not due to
any unwillingness on the part of the
youngsters to pay, but rather through
the fact that in the excitement Of car
ing for their live sock they had for
gotten when the notes would come
due.
It is expected that the sending of
bills to the pig raisers will cause
wholesale slaughtering of porkers in
sections where there are pig clubs
To many the slaughterings will bring
fair return on the investment, and
| it is said that in spite of the advent
of peace the cubs will be continued
next year.-New York Herald.

Thrift

Friday is the anniversary of the
birthday of one of Americas greatest
statesman, Benjamin Franklin, and
the United States Government pro-
poses to capitalize the day as an idea
of thrift and the purchase of War
Savings Stamps. Franklin's picture
appears on the 1919 series of War
sayings of Poor Richards Almanac
celebrate the day is to buy these
stamps literally on Jan. II.
No American ever wrote more
wisely on the habits of thrift and the
sayings of Poor Richrd's Almanac
have become classic. The United
States government needs the people:
money today as never before to com
plete their far-reaching program O.
reconstruction. And the individual al
well needs to cultivate the habit O.
savings which has made the French
people the most thrifty on earth AM
added to the stability of great ma
ton.
Don't let Friday go by without buy
ing one or more 25 cent pictures o
Benjamin Franklin.

PRESS COMMENT
The British on the Sea

The difference between Great Brit
aims control of the sea and Ger
many's army on land is that nobody
had any reason to be afraid of the
former. The British fleet is for de-
fensive purposes only. Great Brit
ain is an island, and would have
small chance of defence by an army
if an enemy invaded her. She must
have a great fleet as her only sure
protection. She has one, but never
has she used it, as Germany would
have used it, to strangle the trade of
other nations. The seas are as free
to trade as if Great Britain's navy
were the size of Venezuela's.
This is why Germany's conception
of the freedom of the seas" in time
of peace was always without a grain
of foundation. AS for war, Britain
has used her fleet as fairly and legi-
timately as in time of peace. Her
navy is unstained by any of the afro
cities that made the worlds blood
run cold during the short life of the
German navy. Without it we could
not have won this war, and despite
the temptation to retaliate the Brit
ish navy conducted it's share of the
war as impeccablly as if it had been
fighting an honorable foe. The Brit
ish fleet is a protection to the worlds
trade in time of peace, and bulwark
against assassins in time of war; 1t
is a friend to the trader, but ter
ror to the pirate, as Germany now
knows.-New York Times.

The Capture

Gen. Won Spew sat in his room
and studied the map. Then he rang
the bell at his elbow. In came Dun
derkopf his aide-de-camp.
= "Dunderkopf, glance over this map.
Do you see this hill?"
81 do, Exeellency."
"That hill must be captured At
tend to the matter and let me know
when it is DONE"
Twenty minutes passed and there
was a knock at the door. Dunder-
kept strobe in, clicked his heels to-
gether and saluted.
IT have the honor to announce, Elk
cellency, that the hill has been cap
tured"
ALREADY captured! Fine, my son
inel Who occupies it,"

Makers of Heroes.

Emerson says, Chimes Of heroism are
generally times OF terror" They show
true character. It seems that human
nature needs a test to show the stuff
it's made of. Spirits of heroic mold
often lie dormant until aroused by a
mighty challenge. It seems as though
there is some militarism of the soul
that waits the fife call and the meas
ure of the drum beat. Not fear but
lack OF occasion keeps the latent might
unconscious of itself. But let the need
call and the sleeping giant rouses and
strides frayward to the dismay of petty
puppets Of annoyance.

Frederick A. Wells in lions Herald)
Wave high, o banner of beauty!
Float far, fairest emblem of right!
Thy stripes that bold tyrant shall
punish;
Thy stars shall illumine his night.
Thy folds, by soft breezes fondled,,
Shall fetter the war lords of lust;
While armies beleagured shall love
thee,
And under thy shadow shall trust.
Thy staff, so stalwart and sturdy,
Thereon weary nations shall lean;
Or better betimes be the scepter
Held out by Columbia, Queen. :
To peoples of earth seeking safety,
And sailing DER seas to be free,
Who, furnishing, fall at her footstool,
To find its fulflment in thee.
Float far, fairest emblem of freedom
To the uttermost corners of earth
Till peoples and nations, uniting,
Count blessed the day of thy birth
Each. one of them standing on tiptoe
Extending her fingers afar,
And touching thy folds in her fond
ness,
Shall pluck from thy blue field q
star.
A star to be set in her own flag;
A star to shine forth in its sky;
A bright star of hope for the hope
less;
A starlight that never shall die.

VERMONT WAS AHEAD
First Demand for Y. w. c. A. Work
ers Came from the Girls of This
State

With the appointment of Miss Ma
rion Gary of Rutland as Northeastern
Field Secretary of the Y. w. C. A
for Vermont, it has developed that
from the young girls of the state
came the fist demand for Y. w. c.
A. activities, and it is the extension
of this demand that Miss Gary is now
preparing to supply.
It was the Vermont school girls
who took the initiative in their state
and introduced Y. w. C. A. work in
the form Of student organizations in
the University of Vermont and Mid
dlebury College, besides three or four
other academies; and it was the
school girls about Brattleboro who
combined to form the Green Noun
tain Girls Camp. Now, however, that
Vermont is represented in the North
eastern Field of the Y. w. C. A. by
the appointment of Miss Gary as
Field Secretary, it is reported that
the demand of the school girls is ex-
tending to the older women, and Miss
Gary is preparing to add to the Y.
w. C. A. work the assistance of all
that the older girls and young wom-
en- of Vermont can bring to it. 1t
was during the United War Work
Campaign that these young women
first learned that the Y. w. C. A.
was seeking exactly what they had
to give, and in return would offer
them a means for living the fuller life
they were demanding. Miss Gary is
therefore going over the entire state,
seeking AMI finding leaders among
tn women, and plans for the estab-
lishment of Y. w. C. A. centers in
the county districts are already near
ing completion. Reports at the recent
conference in New York of the
Northeastern Field of the Y. w. C.
A. indicated that in Vermont are
groups of the strongest women of
New England to whom New England
must look for help in building back
the sane, substantial life upon which
the war ir.truded. In going about
the state Miss Gary reports that
while doing their part for the win
ming Of the war, these women began
to realize their own power, and have
now become restless under old con-
ditions. Their demand that these
old conditions shall be changed, Miss
Gary is Preparing to meet through
the Y. w. G. A. and the establish
ment of Y. w. C. A. centers is to be
her first work.
It is announced that as such CEN
ters are este blished, the Green Noun
tain Girls Camp is to expand until
every school girl in Vermont shall
have the advantage of the outdoor
social life that is now enjoyed by the
school girls about Brattleboro. These
advantages include broader &C
quaintance among the girls themsel.
yes, during the four weeks spent il
sleeping in tents, walking, picnicking
and reading during the day, with
campfire singing and games in The
evening. Such advantages also in
clude the training in cooking, dish
washing, bread making, and woot
carrying incident to the maintaining
of camp life, besides daily lessons il
home nursing, hygiene, first aid, chile
welfare, and dietetics. The progress
already reported in Vermont gives
promise of camps for every schoo
girl in the state by the time the sum
mer makes camping possible.

Stray pieces Of copper wire have
many uses, but it often is necessary
to straighten out wire that has already
been used See that there are no
sharp bends or kinks in the wire and
straighten out by hand any such that

to some firm anchorage; grip it in
the wise if need tbe. Loop the other
end of the wire around hammer

pull out the length of the wire. Re-

will stretch little. which improves
