FARMERS CHAUTAUQUA
A SPLENDID AFFAu;

1t is more than probable that the
attendance would have been double
what it was had the people sufficient
time to make arrangements to leave
their farms or homes, this is to be
regretted but due to factors not under
our control, arrangements for the
holding OF the Chautaulga could not
be perfected until the last month, ana
the time allowed us was entirely in
adequate to make as through pre-
paration as we would have desired.
However, this is not the point,
what we wish to emphasize is the
fact that nothing at all could have
been done, there would have been
no Chautauqua at all hut fos the CO.
operation of a group of men, 21 in
number who met one afternoon in
Beaver Dam, and in an hours time
organized. appointed committees, and
mapped out the entire work for the
three days.
You heard Cooperation all through
the series of meetings, but the
chances are that you did not realize
that those very men talking to you
would not have been there to talk,
but for that one thing-Co-operation.

RUMANIA TOLD To
HALT IN HUNGARY
Ultimatum By Supreme
Council In Strong
Terms

The Supreme Council to-day decid
ed to send an ultimatum to the Ru.
manian Government regarding heI
course in Hungary.
The ultimatum, couched in drastic
terms and with a time limit, will be
delivered by an envoy of the Council
Should Rumania refuse to comply
with the terms within a given time
diplomatic relations will cease and
the Allied envoy will bring away with
him from Bucharest the Allied diplo-
matte representatives there.
The text of the ultimatum will not
be given out until it is delivered to
Rumania. 1t is understood, however.
that ii will deal mainly with the sub
ject of reparation and the evacuation
of Hungary by the Rumanian army.
With regard to reparation the AL
lies, it is indicated, will insist that
Rumania recognize that all goods,
rolling stock, etc, requisitioned by
thO iNuuidiiidH ci MY III hungary III uSJ
be handed over to the Allies to be
distributed among the States having
claims against Hungary in a proper
tion to be assigned by the Peace Con-
ference. Rumania must undertake
to pay the Allies for such requisition-
ed material, foodstuffs, ETC., as she is
unable to return.
The envoy has not yet been select
ed, but it is believed he will be a
Frenchman. The name of Charles
Jonnart, formerly Governor General
of Algeria. is mentioned in connec-
tion with the mission.
simultaneously the Rumanian dip.
