MOlly's Potato Race

MOlly>S FOCatO Race
The hazy light Of an autumn after
noon had gone from the valley as
Molly was feeling her way toward
home. She was weary with long
days work in the community potato
field and was also very much worried.
She had stopped in the post office
where the weather notices were
posted, and had seen this news:
First cold wave of the season due
in northern New York Sunday.
Molly had caught her breath in dis
may. In the little valley community
her advice was taken with respect.
For letter had come to her from
soldier friend "over there" urging her
to use her influence and friendship to
persuade these people to help in rais-
ing the much needed foodstuffs, and
Molly's word that spring had
been to plant potatoes. And because
she was a little vain she
! had urged every household to
plant every available plot with
potatoes (which was the only thing
the little valley dared plant.) Then
on the twenty-first of June, Old Man
Winter bestowed frost upon the val
ley people. The home gardens were
| frozen into one shadowed waste.
This aroused Moly's fighting blood.
She assembled heads of families and
they voted to plant again. Into this
second seeding went the valleys saw
ings. Then after reading the notice
of the cold wave she felt sickening
pain at the thought of her major
hearing of her own defeat. Is it any
wonder that she walking slowly home
ward the lines of the majors last
letter now came before her eyes:
Dear Molly:
"The news of your great canteen
victory is immense, simply immense
| read it to my men, who cheered for
you. l may see you sooner than you
think"
That last idea was the worst of all
How could she bear to see him?
In her worry she almost bumped
into little runabout, standing in the
road, by which two well dressed ladies'
belonging to the fashionable club al
the head of the valley people, were
arguing. The object of their discus
sion was fiat tire. When they saw
Molly they fairly jumped at her witt
questions.
"Is there telephone near?"
"Where can we find garage 2"
"There's no garage in the valley
answered Molly, "but I know how y
put on tires. Where's your jack Y"
At last the tire was as good as new
and they talked a little.
Aren't you the one they call "Moll.

much about YOU

ADMIREs FRENCH CHARACTER.
The More John A. Gordon Studies French
People the Better He Likes Them.

4 letter from John A. Gordon, who is
in a French artillery school stated that
on Dec. % he was stationed at the de-
pot Of the 4Sth regiment or artillery at
Dion, which il near the American sector
and base, and he hoped therefore to get
chance to look up his brother Norman,
who is with the American forces. He
said that later he expected to be sent
to his regiment which is in Alsace. He,
mentioned that he was going to Brest to
see another brother, Philip.
OF the French artillery school he
wrote; ''The school has been very in
teresting and eulightening, II has given
me little more insight into the French
character, and / can say that the more
/ discover about the French the better
like them"
Writing about receiving letter from
Norman, he says:
u am very much pleased that Norman
has made the acquaintance of a good
French family. 1t is a thing / always
wanted to do but have never had the op.
portunity. A good French family has a
great many excellent qualities, some Of
which are not to be found ordinarily in
an American family. The gentleman that
wrote the letter 10 me is a Monsieur Lar
Diet, who lives at Economy, Sarthe,
France Economy is the town and Sarthe
is the department. Norman is stationed
there at present. Monsieur Lardet wrote
that Norman visits them every evening
and seems to enjoy himself very much,
Besides il is an excellent manner Of
learning French. If could visit q fam.
lily as Norman does every day, 1t would
only take a very few months 10 learn
to speak conversational French fairly

ACCkK CANYON FARMERS FACE ANOTHER YEAR WITHOUT WATER SUPPLY
COMMERCIAL ROOMS
TO,BE RENOVATED
OWNER TAKES STEPS TO HAVE
INTERIOR ENTIRELY
RENOVATED.

When Joe Erwin presented John C..
Rice, justice of the state supreme
court and owner of the Commercial
club block, with $500 due on back rent,
things began to hum around the his
toric institution. The first mentioned
big event occurred Tuesday when
Judge Rice was in Caldwell and the
second began Wednesday morning
when a plumber started fixing things
and preparations were made for the
reception of few carpenters to over
haul the roof.
above, bids have been called to be
submitted to E. H. Plowhead, chair
man of the building committee, for re-
tinging and revarnishing the interior OF
the club rooms. just as soon as the
work is let, the entire interior of the
buildings will be subjected to a com
plete overhauling and renovating.
1t is generally admitted that this
work should have been done some
time ago and the energy and perser-
verence of Mr.. Gibbons and Mr.. Err
win have made possible clearing up
an old deficit and insuring the i'm
provement of the Commercial club
rooms.
Other improvements.
In addition to the improvements
which Justice Rice is having done, it is
expected that club members will feel
dissatisfied with other interior con-
ditiohs and will lend every effort to
providing sum sufficient to insure
new carpets and other things which
are needed. 1t was expected that the
July Fourth celebration would net an
amount over and above expenses suf-
ficient to do this work but some un-
expectedly heavy bills actually left
the club with deficit on the celebra-
ton program. When that amount is
cleared up, according to Mr.. Erwin,
immediate steps will be taken to fl
nance the other essential improve
mentS.
Membership continues to grow. An
additional list OF several names will be
presented at the next regular meeting.
according to Secretary Erwin. In
Guided in this list are number of
rural applicants who have been at
tracted to the organization through
the work that has been donesthis sum-
mer in behalf Of the potato producers.

RED TAPE NECESSARY
TO OBTAIN CHARTER

When Joe Erwin forwarded 500 to
the state boxing commission together
with an application for local charter
that boxing bouts and wrestling
matches might be given here, he was
informed that it was necessary also to
present articles of Incorporation and a
bond of 5000. either personal or
surety. He is busy this week end
taking those steps.
The suggestion has been made that,
If possible to make arrangements, the
first athletic exhibition to be given
here, should be in the spacious garage
now under construction for the Shank
Auto company. 1t is possible that be-
fore the building is occupied, at least
one good card will be given there.
The structure will be 90 days yet un-
der construction and it is believed
that fast card of events can be OBJ
tanned in that time for the opening
night.
