What Is the Grange? .sl
1t is farmers organization. 81
years old, and has accumulated $780,
900. the interest on which is more than
enough to pay the expense Of the ma

It keeps committee on legislation
! every day in the year at Washington,
D. Co. to look after the interests of its
members. In the earlier life of the
organization, they attempted to go into
politics by supporting complete ticket

they changed their tactics and provid

Dear Folks: go -. 80
I suppose you have already seen In

the ''army of occupation ,,
We started moving about Nov. Is
/ and reached the eastern border OF
Luxembourg just before Thanksgiving.
We slayer there six days and then
started on: cur way. thru Germany. On
our way thru Luxembourg We stopped
just outside the castle of the Duchess
of Luxembourg and from there. on we
could see castles perched upon the
sides of all the high hills. Some of
them were new and others old. The
them were new and others old. The
second night IN G erIitany We stayed
in an old castle that was built In the
year 900 A. d. =.
Gee, The, country of Luxembourg
and Germany is all hills. l believe if
Germany was flattened out it would
be as big as the u. S. Well we
finally came to the Rhine and cross
ed il north of Coblenz. .-,
The Rhine is pretty. Not quite as
wide as the Missouri in May but on
the west bank is level ground for
about S or 6 Eilometers and on the
east bank the ground goes right
straight Zip about 300 or 400 feet. The
bridge we}o CROSSED Twas a railroad,
bridge and the tracks run right OH
the bridge aainto, i Tunnel thru the
hills. But We turned south for.abont,
s or 3 kIometers. and while we were.
going that way we saw or steam,

One man in a responsible position
in a local railroad office can make or
break the good will of community
against the whole system of govern
ment ownership or sympathy with the
railroad men in their difficulties with
their employers. If the public want
quick service, courteous treatment and
a reasonable amount of special at
tention now and then to conserve
their interests and meet an atmos-
phere of "the government is owning
the railroads now; what are you go
ing to do about it," there's going to
grow broad quick breech between
the railroad and the public.
This newspaper, however, has been
treated to as pretty a piece of cour-
tesy and cooperation on the part of
the local freight Office folks today as
it ever heard of. We wanted freight
and wanted it in a hurry; the details
are immaterial. The local freight
men went out of their way to &C
commodate. 1t was something
epochal for the railroad to do. True,
zone robin does not make a summer,
and because one man in authority
happened to be white man and a
gentleman, does not signify that the
millineum has dawned. All the same,
these things help.
Yes, we shall write to Hines about
in-in commentator.
