HARVEST LUNCH.

Last FRIDAY a nice little lunch was
enjoyed on the w. Y. Gull lawn from
70 to D. m. It was not because of a
heavy grain crop on Tncle' Billie s
farm that he had his little picnic, al
though Jim Thompson got fair crop,
wheat running about 20 bushels, oats
! 80, barley 40, but other crops have been
good, hay crop above the average. But
w. v. is sort of pacifst rather than
a propagandist and thought it just and
pleasing to celebrate the treaty of
peace which has been made and will
probably be concurred in by the United
States Senate after it gets trimmed by
Senators Lodge, LaFollette, Bohra and
Hiram johnson. The most of us think
| it needs little trimming Then, again,
I'VE stock raisers feel very thankful that
the Wisconsin legislature and Governor
! Philip have listened to US and are go
| ing to protect our stock against loss
from worthless dogs. They have passed
a just and safe law and it will be no
| hardship on the faithful dog. Some
men talk about the law as too severe
and not humane. If these men had
seen focks of sheep suffer and die from
being torn to pieces by uncaredfor
dogs, as | have, they would be more for
humanity and sheepanity'' and less
for Elegantly.
| The program was not quite as exten-
sive as last year owing to the absence
/ of Rev. Rietz and Miss Emma Rich
ards. We had nice music and NJ "
read little Of K. C. BIS gossip which
took all right. There were nearly two
hundred on the lawn and all seemed to
enjoy the social chat.
| After the literary program Raphael
Schlax motored on the lawn with H. G.
Eppings Store and catered to the
guests till their appetites for food and
drink were satisfied Ray was master
of his situation but he kept his eyes
leveled little too much on several of
the pretty girls, but / think he will get
over that by next year.
Two Of W. VS. lady friends, Mrs.
P. M. DeBell and Mrs. Fred Madaus,
shot in two hundred big, fat, farm
fried cakes, one being about 8 inches
in diameter for Uncle Billie, and they
seemed to all go down.
The threshing crew run by DeBell
Brothers, about thirty strong, then
showed up and the fruit, cakes, ice
cream, and pop sure did 60,
w. Y. intended to give a general in
vitation, but owing to few kinks he
thought best not to do 50. He thought
last year his pocketbook might soon be
as big as Henry Ford S but as he is not
in the automobile business his purse is
little slack, but is still in hopes to
get more of his friends out next wear

ing At J. B. Mondloch
Farm Tuesday Night.
MILWAUKEE HERE SUNDAY

the report of the sessions of the ma

loch, the secretary of the Kenoshs

expected that between seventy five and

Post Office Officials Have No
Trouble Handling til e
Rush To Buy Surplus
Army Supplies.
LISTS ARE STILL INTACT
Single Can Sales TO End Today But
Orders For Case Shipments Will Be
Taken Until Allotment For Kenosha
Has Been Disposed OFF.


1t WASH t necessary for Postmaster
German to have any extra clerks on
hand today to handle orders for surplus
army food. In fact the sale In Keno
sha had petered out today until it was
considered almost fiivver A few peo-
pie came around to order food and to
look over the lists, but the sale was
not nearly as large as it had been on
Tuesday and on that day the total of
the sales did not exceed $1,000. The
total sales for the two days was placed
by the post office men at close to $4,000.
1t was not expected that the sales for
today would exceed few hundred dol
lars and less than fifty customers had
shown up at tine general delivery win
dow to place orders up to noon today
The shortage in buyers was not due to
the fact that the Kenosha allotment
was sold out-far from it. Nearly ev-
|erything that had been offered on the
first day with the exception of cherries
was being offered today.
orders will be taken for single cans Of
any one of the products and after the
lists are closed this evening, the orders
placed with the post officials here must
be for the unit in which the goods are
packed This will mean a case purchase
in the line of canned goods and meats
and big lots Of commodities put Up in
that way.
The sale is not going very brisk, -
said Assistant Postmaster Gems eve
do not call it disappointment, but we
are willing to admit that we had ex-
pected that a lot more Kenosha people
would take advantage of the govern
ment 8 offer Of the surplus foods. Some
people seem to shy at the offerings and
others just come around to get prices
and leave without placing orders. This
is the last day &C the sale for the prod
ucts IN single cans, but we will CON
tinue to take orders for ease and bag
lots until the allotment made to Ke-'
nosha has been disposed of They
havn t made much of dent in some of
the, supplies as yet and we are going
to have lots Of bargains for the late
purchasers.
The sale of bacon, roast beef and
corned beef is particularly slow and
there still remained thousands Of cans
and hundreds of eases of corn and peas
and other vegetables to be disposed of.
Boarding house keepers who were ex-
pected to fall over themselves to buy
the wonderful bargains in canned to-
matoes failed to get into the line at all
and for the most part the orders taken
at the Kenosha Office were small orders.
Similar conditions are being reported
from surrounding cities and it is not
improbable that a considerable Of the
allotment given to these cities will have
to be turned over to some Of the larger
cities for sale.

Half ofFrench Lost

1,500, 900 killed in battle and an equal number seriously wounded is the enor- nous sacrifice of France in Sthe world war. This constituted about half of the men she put into the field--a larger radio of her 36,00o,00o population than any other nation gave. America owes France a large debt of gratitude for this herioc outpouring of her life's blood that liberty might live, and also to the peasants of France who discovered perfect remedy for stomach, liver and intestinal ailments which is reported to have relieved incalcu1able suffering, prevented many surgical operations and saved thousands of lives. Geo. H. Mayr, a leading Chicago chemist, imports the ingredients and sells this remedy in America under the name of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy. It is simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflammation which causes practically all stomach. liver and intestinal ailments, including appendi- citis.

WAR GIVES GREAT
 IMPETUS ID HEALTH.
By Associated Press

Atlantic City, June H.-One of the greatest victories of the war was the triumph of modern medicine in the con- trol of acute infectious diseases, but even greater benefit will result from the fact that the war also opened the eyes of the government, as well as the people, to the great inroad that chronic diseases are making in our national economy, Dr. David R. Lyman said at the annual meeting of the National Tuberculosis as- sociation, which convened here today. , Dr. Lyman is president of the associa- ton.
 As a result of the ravageS of the white plague" among Americas man. hood, startlingly revealed b ythe draft board records pr. Lyman predicted the immediate creation of a division of tu- berculosis in the United States public health service. This, he said, undoubt- erly would be followed by the establish ment at Washington of a department of health, having equal rank with the other great activities of the government, in- stead of the nations health being con- sidcred of minor importance and cared for, as it is at present, as side issue of the treasury department.
 With the records showing that nearly 100000 men were rejected for the natlonal army because suffering from suspected ' tuberculosis, pr. Lyman urged greater cooperation between public and private health authorities if preventable disease is not to hamper the country's develop ment during the reconstruction years.
 Government officials, as well as health authorities from every state in the union, are here to discuss plans for a new na- tion-wide campaign against preventapie disease.
 Dr. Charles J. Hatfield, managing di- rector of the national association, point ed out that although tuberculosis causes 15o,000 deaths annually in this country, the burden of the fight against the dis ease was being borne by voluntary asso- citations Even their work, he said, Is greatly handicapped by inadequate laws

Work a Guarantee of Peace

Charlton Bates Strayer in Ieslie's.
 The industrial reconstruction of Eu- rope awaits the signing and ratifica- ton of the treaty. Unless Europe has the raw materials and the machinery to give the people work, no treaty of peace will bring peace to that dis tracted continent. President Frank A. vanderlip of the National City bank of New York, on the eve of his TO- turn to America after several weeks in England and on the continent, dc- clared that "the real treaty of peace will be the plan whereby Europe will be able to get machinery, rolling stock and raw material and be placed in a position to help herself" MT. Wander lip points out that America does not comprehend the extent of the paralysis of European industry With our free- dom from the ravages of war and with the great industrial prosperity we have enjoyed the past five years, there has been, nevertheless, a feeling of suspense awaiting the adoption of the treaty In many portions of Europe, however, industry has completely col lapsed and the people are without both work and food. However great her unwillingness to do so, Germany for this reason. if no other, will lave to sign the treaty.
 The complete lifting of the blockade will follow the signing, and though the terms may be hard Germany will then be free for the first time since her defeat to work out her salvation. But the defeated powers are not the only ones in industrial need. England has a million people receiving gov- ernment unemployment grants. Bell gium, France and Italy have similar problems, and it is the same story with the smaller neutral powers. Id,e- ness, high prices and hunger will pro- duce unrest among any people, and 1aad auantl1o 11v fO rayO1ntiOn

Choked With Pleasures

Rev. Charles M Sheldon in the Chris
 tian Herald.
 The pastor of church in the mid- dle west went over his list of mcm- bers and found that a score or mere did not attend preaching service with any regularity, and the majority of the members never attended the week day prayer service.
 He set about trying to find the real reason for the lack of interest, espe- cially in spiritual things.
 The minister finally succeeded in getting a frank expression of opinion from one of the young men. college student. who said: ''ro tell the truth, pastor. our lives are so full of excit- ing and expressing events that an or dinary church meeting does not inter- est us. We see the most thrilling moving picture shows. we go to the most professional scientific lectures: we hear the most cultivated singers: we are constantly rubbing up against the most enticing amusements. To tell the truth. all religious things seem pretty tame to us The church ser vices don't thrill us. The music Is or dinary. There Is no excitement about 1t all. It doesn't appeal to our senses"
 But can the church in America fur- nish thrills to it's members every Sunday? Is that the business of the modern minister? Must he run an amusement bureau to compete with the moving picture show?
