Healdton, Feb. 2S.-And still that

well in the limelight, The Gypsy

rig for that company in that section

likely others. If these wells turn
out as well as did Empire No. /,

ing Germany, so why not loan to these boys?
 l have talked to a number of them, an6 they have expressed desire to get back to the soil if Uncle Sam will give them a chance In fact, it is rumored that the republicans will make this one of their strong plays when they swing into power And l hope they do.
 Uncle Sam is willing to help get tife returning boys a job" The camps all have agents scattered about them, with posters here and there telling of the great opportunities to enter agricultural work But there's lots of difference between be- ing a farm hand and owning a piece of land and being your own boss and ad- vancing your own ideas. One soldier might choose the poultry business; an other live stock, and still another general farming.
 Some of the boys have saved from their small allowance while in service, and with a little encoura cement and help, would make valuable assets to the rural com munity. They have seen the world, and most of them claim they would rather be a began in America than a millionaire in Europe so far as they were concerned And why not? This is the greatest coun-

try in the world, and as we have to feed the balance of the world for some time, why not give these boys chance to help do it?
 A little agitation and wire-pulling at the capitol in Washington will put the stunt across. Some of soldiers claim that great stress will be brought to bear on Con gress for help of some kind Many of boys left home when suits of clothing were selling from s125O to s25. And now when they return a $50 suit is common. Sc they are obliged to wear uniforms for W weeks and months until they can accum- ulate enough to make the change with. This is not right. The paltry $60 given is not drop in the bucket toward helping a fellow get on his feet.
 What is needed is new legislation and more generosity from Uncle Sam Every body is begging and pleading for help for everybody on earth but the boys who saved it, and it's about time they were getting what was coming to them
 Let's push this little ball along and see how many heroes, We can land on farms of their own-not find them jobs as farm hands only,
 And employers who promised the boys their jobs back after the affair was over and haven't done so, are not 100 per cent American according to my way of think ing
