COMMUNITY COMMITTEE
AID TO FARM BUREAU

o. @. Horlamus, county agent of
Nicollet. sees in the recent organiza-
ton IN Oshawa township in that coun-
ty of the Farm Bureau Community
Committee new potent factor in the
work of Farm Bureaus in this state.
In report to his district leader, ]. s.
Jones, of University Farm, Mr.. Hor-
lamus says: Community leaders who
took part in the organization Of the
Committee discussed their own needs
and suggested remedies for the limita-
tions Of their system of farming with
out outside suggestions. The greatest
trouble with our work IN the past has
been that as soon as the actual leader
ship Of the county agent on any one
project in 3 community is withdrawn,
the project Or organization dies. This
plan Of organization promises to REM
edy this BY developing real local lead

insult In times Of peace. When the
flags Of two or more nations are dis

Where Flag Flies Day and Night.
"Over only three buildings in Amer
lea does the national flag fly officially
night and day continuously over the
east and west fronts Of the National
Capitol and over the adjacent House
of Representative and Senate office
buildings. The two emblems over the
Capitol (storm-flag size) are replaced
every six weeks, the wear aand tear,
due to wind and rain, being excessive.
"Over the Senate and House OF
Representatives wings of the Capitol
the flags fly only when those bodies
are in session and during recess. At
adjournment, either at the end Of a
days work or for a session, they are
lowered.

WARE THE MASK.

On Halloween you may hear
! tapping at your window pane and
! banshee walls on lawn, and il you
rush to the door you emay find
dozen friends capering al lOund you
Here's the secret.
Most every small boy had
brother, an uncle or . cousin In
! the war, and if he hadn't, big sis
ter could generally accommodate
him with couple of friends. And
all these army acquaintance
brought home gas masks.
That is why this Halloween IS
different from al proceeding ones
through the ages. Never before
have these special implements OF
war been used generally as chill
dren's toys.
And you must admit that gas
mask propelled by a small boy
motor, is more grOtesQue than the
funny faces with the blobby noses,
Of former years, and more scary
than any "ole punkin head jack

They sent us a new
Stenographer this morning
And as she took her
Place a hush fell upon
The room and / turned
And looked and All! senor,
From afar off came the
Faint, silvery chimes of
Ancient bells the years
Rolled back like a scroll
And a dim sweet trail
Of lilacs stole down
From the first dawn kissed
Garden of creation.
The breath of morning stirred
Little ripples on the breast
Of the sleeping sea and
The stars paled one by one
And shrank back into the
Receding night. Tiny blades
Of grass raised their green
Spears from the earth and
The dewdrops nestled in
Them tenderly. A soft
Breeze swept the trees
And the leaves whispered
Jeyously that night had
Gone. On the slopes OF
Olympus the gods shook
Off their slumbers and
Marveled at the pewel studded
World beneath-a world
That lifted its dewy freshness
To the sun as Juno
Herself might have offered
Her ripe luscious lips to Jove.
And then, senof, this here

BREST is BIGGEST AMERICAN
CITY ON EASTERN SHORES OF
ATLANTIC; HOMEWARD BOUND

By United Press.
BREST, Feb. 24.-(By Mail)-
Brest is the largest American city on
the eastern shores of the Atlantic
ocean. With more than a million
Americans heading westward in the
opening quarter of this year, the
French population Of Brest, 10000
persons, was so swamped that the
port became a veritable American
city. With the rush of Americans to
the port~Paced renforcements of the
Y. M. C. A. workers and supplies for,
although Brest had been the center
of great Red Triangle activities for
more than a year, the facilities re-
quired prompt doubling to accommo-
date the homeward bound vctors.
At the commencement of this
year, the Y NJ c. A. conducted thir-
teen canteens in Brest and nearby
camps, three Red Triangle restau-
rants, three hotels, and the Navy Hut
being in the city. The Navy Hut
there is the largest hut conducted by
the Y. M. c. A. anywhere in France
1t occupies an entire city block
Then there are three soda water and
ice cream stands and a wet canteen,
known as the Red Triangle, which at
one time was regulation French sa-
loon. For some unknown reason the
saloon was a failure and was being
sold at auction one day when some
"Y" men bought it, bag and baggage
and now lemonade and other soft
drinks are being served over what
used to be the bar. Today it is one
of the most popular resorts for SOL
diers and sailors in Brest.
One of the greatest activities in
Brest conducted by the Y. M. C. A.
is the money changing department
Nine persons are kept busy all day
long changing money for the soldiers
ard sailors. When the army was ar
irving in France, the chief job was
turning American dollars into francs |
Now that the army is headed back
home again, it is just the other way !
around. During the month of Octo- |
ber $3,500,O0O was the amount |
changed and this tremendous figure
is ON the increase now. During the
same month the soldiers and sailors
spent $685. 900 francs in the canteen |
and sent home 216,O00 francs through

league Of free nations, says a
bulletin ON the League to En-
force Peace.
To business, which has seen
the. accumulations of century
consumed by war, this plan
holds out prospect of stable in
ternational relations.
Labor, which has always borne
the principal burden of injustice
and strife, sees in the new order
of justice, democracy and fellow
ship guaranteed by a league the
only refuge from Bolshevism.
Religion sees in the coming to-
gether of the nations the dawn
ing of permanent peace on arrth
and good will toward men.
In the hearts Of the mothers
of a generation that has paid to
war a toll of six million sons,
the vision kindles a hope that
their chiIdren's children may be
spared the yet more terrible sor-
rows of future wars.
Men who risked their lives in
the battle for democracy find in
a league of nations the sum of
that for which they fought and
their comrades died.
The proposal presents the
most important question of ma
tional policy that as citizens we
shall face in our life time.

cit is a real league. It. has
clinching and cinching provi-

able and comprehensive analysis
of the covenant, which combats
the criticism and should dispel
the doubts Of opponents Of the
league.
The statement made in some
quarters that the constitution Of
the league as agreed upon nulli-
fies the Monroe doctrine is
sharply challenged by Mr.. Taft.
On this all-important question
he says:
Article X covers the Monroe
doctrine and extends it to the
world. The league is not a |

BY United Press.

PARIS, Feb. 1.-(By Mail )-One of
the nice little mathematical prob
lens the peace conference has to
solve is how to make maratime
power out of land-locked one.
The states now facing this prob
lem are Poland, Hungary, Bohemia,
Bulgaria and the new Turkish en-
pire of Asiatic Turkey, the two latter
being deprived of access to the sea
only in case the peace conference ac-
cepts the Greek solution of the near
east problem.
Poland is fighting hard for some
sort Of settlement that will enable
her to have a Baltic sea outlet at
Danzig. Prussian territory lies in the
way. but Prussian territory no longer
is considered much of an obstacle.
The Hungarian state that presum-
ably will result from the dismember-
ment of Austria-H Hungary, as well as
Czecho-Slovakia. appear to be thor

States is not under this consti-

war against it's will. This league
is to be regarded in conflict with
the advice of Washington only

viewpoint. "
Mr. Taft closes his editorial
Endorsement of the league with
the hope that a forward-look-
ing senate will not seek to de-
feat this grand advance Of man
kind toward a just and lasting
peace.
Now that President Wilson
brings back to us a real league,
and has fully made good his an

support, y Mr.. Taft concludes.
"The fourteen nations have done
