beautiful farm home of Ed Bowman

the dinner table was set in the. big
barn, where Mrs. Nom, Mrs. Swagler
and Mrs. Dr. Dawson slid down the
straw stack to settle the big dinner
they ate. There were 48 at the table
which was loaded with good eats.
Everything that you could think OF
was on that table and some things you
couldn't think Of, for instance, a big
dish Of snits, or in other words dried
apples, and they were good. = The
Ouiia board was brought out and was
asked the question "How does Mrs.
Swagler's stomach look on the in

"How does Mrs. Monn's stomach
look 2" was the next question. The
answer came back kind of solemn
like-"jammed full" Mrs. Brumbaugh
called for a stomach pump. She
thought she might be able to eat more,
if she used it. Mr.. Bowman informed
her there wasn't anything Of the kind

One of the prettiest weddings of
the season took place Wednesday,
June 25th at 6 o'clock, when. Miss
Hope Flickinger, daughter of Mrs.
Ida Flickinger was. married to Roy
Chambers, son of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM.
Chambers. The wedding ceremony
was performed at the BRIDES home on
the Medina pike by Rev. R. w. Gar
diner, pastor of the Methodist Epis-
copal church. Miss Halle Bell sang
"Oh Promise Me-" accompanied by
Miss Marie Crofoot, in the presence
of only the immediate families and a
few girl friends, about 35 in number.
The bride was unattended and was
gowned in white Georgette crepe over
white satine and carried flower bou-
quet of white roses. The ceremony
was followed by supper. Eight covers
We're laid at the bridal table. The
color scheme and decorations were

but piled up to depreciate in value;
they have hired men not needed
and discharged men badly wanted;
they have paid men ,more than the
scale and would have paid others
less if the railway unions would
have stood it; they have done all
they could to discredit Government
control hiding their acts from the
Director General.
Give a five-year extension to
Government control with a man
favoring it as Director-G General and
Organized Labor will help him
prove it a success.
And right here let us say that a

workers engaged in it but to all the

LABOR HAS NEW STATUS
SAYS ENGLISH EDITOR

LONDON. England, Feb. Il
Reynolds Newspaper, one of Eng
lands leading Liberal publications,
prints an editorial on after-the-war
problems, in which the editor
makes this significant statement:
IF there is one lesson which
has been gained from the war. it is
that the value Of labor was always
underestimated, and the value of
capital always over-estimated. In
the first week of the war, the
banking system of this country
would have crashed into ruin, only
for the fact that the Government
supported the money market with
the national credit. And that cred
it, it has been clearly shown, lay
not so much in banks and capital
lists, as had been supposed, as in
the power of the people to use their
energy and their skill to do the
work that was required if we were
to win the war.
Labor has got, through the
war, a new status. 1t has been
clearly demonstrated that only
those who work, whether, with
hand or brain, count; the rest
matter little or nothing. And that
fact having been demonstrated, il
is likely to be made the center OF
the economic discussions of the fu-
ture.
1--WE in this country have shown
that, despite the fact that 5000
600 men have been taken from in
dustry, and millions more men anC
women have been diverted into
making things that kill instead OF
things that give life, the workers
have been on the whole better fed
and better off generally, than be
fore. When those millions of mer
and women are again established
in the arts of peace, are they al
going back to the same old stage
as before we learnt the great les
son? We think not. "

EVACUATION TAGS

Annals of the American army in
France provide many cases of de
serters" who left rest billets or
quiet sectors" to get to the front
and into action A recent citation
for the posthumous award of a Dis
tinguished Service Cross brings to
light another remarkable breach of
discipline.
When a soldier is injured and
it is found necessary to send him to
the field hospital an evacuation tag
is tied on his uniform. This means
that he is out of the fight: no more
responsibility rests on him and for
him the war is over temporarily.
Lieutenant /. Berry, of the 9Th
Machine Gun Battalion was in &C
ton near Montblanc, France. the
first week in last October. When
he learned that his company COM
mander had been killed and that
the second in command had been
wounded Lieutenant Berry went to
the front line and carried on"
Within a few hours he was Sc
riously wounded in the. head and
the surgeon seeing that quick ac-
ton was necessary to save his life
ordered him to be taken to the hos
pital and placed the evacuation tag
on his uniform. AS soon as the sur
geon had gone Lieutenant Berry
tore off the evacuation tag, des-
troyed it and returned to his COM
pany in the front line For "a hours
he commanded their defense, then
guided them back out of the
trenches after relief had come
and died
Lieutenant Berry, of Carizozo,
New Mexico, finished his job He
saw it through. He scorned an eva
cuation tag.
How many in the coming Victory
Liberty Loan will be seeking evacu-
alton tags?

THE MISTAKES OF
REHABILITATION

The methods of disqualification
have unintentionally, perhaps,
wrought a hardship on discharged
soldiers and sailors as well as up
on the communities in which they
are dumped, without money or en-
ployment.
Very many Of these men have
no money other than perhaps a
months pay. or a part of it, when
they receive their discharge pa
pers. Some of them are thou
sand miles or more from their
homes and have no way OF reach
ing them except by walking and
begging their way. You may say
they could with the liberal pay
given them by the Government,
have saved enough to keep them
from joining the ranks of the ho-
boes. and some say they deserve to
suffer for being thriftless. Others
favor giving them a neat lump sum
70 pay their way until they secure
emp.cyZzE..
The fra -t these classes Of NOR
slists is cursed with a hardness
of heart making il incapable Of
understanding or sympathtzing
with human. The other class is
, possessed Of mistaken philanthropy.
Many OF these soldiers and sail
ors would not reach their home
or secure jobs if given. say $500.
as proposed by good-hearted pao-
pie, people afraid of being consid-
cred unpatriotic or hard hearted
people and politicians waving the
flag for advertising purposes. Be
side this $500 bonus would cost
the people more than a billion Of
dollars.
There is too much of habit
among communities of meeting re-
turned service men win brass
bands and jawsmiths, having them
do marching stunt as elephants
i'm a circus parade to crafty the
curiosity of a lot of people who
didn't fight, then leaving them
hustle for themselves.
Sane, common sense welcomes.
such as the soldiers and sailors re-
ceive from the Red Cross, the fra
ternai orders and the trades unions

is welcome.

HEBBERD THANKS
THE NEWSPAPERS
Spokane, Feb. /, 1919.

Spokane, Feb, !, 1919.
To Editors of Washington News
papers:
The Washington state office of
the United States Food Admins
tration closes today.
! wish it were possible for me to
write individually to editors of all
Washington newspapers and eX-
press to each my sense of obliga-
ton for the generous cooperation
and assistance rendered the Food
Administration work by the news
papers of the state.
There was an incessant call up
on the newspapers of the state for
space to present to the general pub
lie the various needs of the Gov
eminent in the great emergency.
No one knows better than the writ
er how great was this call upon
the newspapers, and no one has
deeper appreciation of the loyal
support given the Government in
this particular than those who
have been engaged in the Food Adj
ministration work.
Without that support and with
out the generous space allowed the
Food Administration it would have
been impossible to secure the won
derful cooperation given this work
by the people of Washington.
Please accept my sincere thanks
and best wishes.
Very truly yours.
CHARLES HEBBERD,
Federal Food Administrator for
Washington.
