Reports from various sections of the
country show that railroad men who
are exposed to the elements Of the
changing weather and all sorts of
storms are frequent victims of colds
and pneumonia. 1t is found also that
Father Johns Medicine is used by
many railroad men as their safeguard
against these dangers to which they
are exposed. They realize that the
pure food elements of which Father
Johns Medicine is composed give
them new strength with which to fight
off colds and coughs and help them to
build new flesh and strength. Because
Father johns Medicine is guaranteed
free from alcohol and dangerous
drugs in any form, many railroad men
use it in their homes as safe medi-
cine for all the family.

ERICH AMERICANS"
Why They Are "Rich" and How They
Attain Their Wealth

Booth Harrington, writing to a
young French girl, tells her this about
"rich Americans"
"You have heard, you say, my dear,
of the rich Americans and how the
United States is the rich mans
country" In a way, this is true. The
American people are the richest people
because they have been Industrious in
developing such vast tracts of the rich
land. And all the while, you know,
anybody who wishes to come here
and share in the development and in
the prosperity. The immigrant has
had as much chance to grow rich as
the native had. 1t all depended only
on his industry and his intelligence.
Education was open to him; every
thing was open to him, if only he were
willing. And great hordes of immi-
grants did come, and shared in the
products of the rich soil and became
Americans.
"You may have heard somewhere
that the Americans grew rich by other
means than by their industry and the
richness of the American soil; and Of
course it is true that here and there
were men among them who by cum
ming and corruption got more than
their proper share; but the common
prosperity of the pople is a fact of
Overwhelmingly more Importance than
that a few individuals have misused
for gain the trust of citizenship. l
am a kind of Socialist, myself, my
dear, but l believe, with the unfortu-
nate Russian lady, more in the social
ism that tries to make poor people
rich than in that which tries to make
the rich people poor.
almost all the richer people in
America have won their riches in open
by industry or intelligence or economy,
and fair competition; they have o
all three; and there are indeed very,
very few poor people who need to re-
main poor if they display normal ener-
gy or intelligence. The advance has
been so great and the opportunities
are so universal that almost all of
those who consider themselves poor
today can have more comforts in their
lives and better education for their
minds than were within the reach of
those who were considered rich fifty
years ago."-Booth Harrington, in st.
Nicholas.

French Potash Coming

For twenty years the American
farmers We're taught by German prop
uganda that they needed potash with
which to grow crops. The German
potash industry had a monopoly at the
beginning of the World War. The
great need of it in wal industry and
the scarcity sent the price up from $40
to $3.50 a ton and set the Americans
to searching for it from other sources.
The Hercules Powder Company, one
of the DUPONT interests, opened a new
industry at San Diego, Cal, by gath
ring sea weeds by a moving machine
on a barge. From this kelp and
brine 2,412 tons of actual potash was
made in 1918.
Now comes the news that the armis-
tice requires the Germans to deliver
$4,000 tons of potash as part of the
indemnity. The greatest potash mines
are in Alsace-Loraine, the territory
recaptured by the French. In the
future we will get French potash.

#Iafas ties Portrait Presented
On Thursday morning at the open
iag exercises of Lafayette School, a
steel engraving portrait OF Marquis
de Lafayette as he appeared IN 1874
on his visit to America and a mini
ature portrait as he appeared in l1ff,
when he was on General George Wash
incton's staff. we're presented 10 the
Board of Education to be hung in the
corridor Of the school house by
William i. Summerill, Of the Penns
Grove Record, who gave an eXplana-
ton, when and why the school was
named for Lafayette.
Lafayette came to America and
joined the Colonial Army in 1777. He
served on General George Washing
tons staff without pay as Washing
ton served eve years without pay.
He visited the United States in 1924
and was given great honors. He was
born September 6, 1857, and died May
20, 1881. His death caused great sor-
row in the United States and he was
venerated more than any other for
eigner by having schools, colleges,
town and townships named for him.
Among them was Lafayette Seminary
Association, the ground for which vas
purchased September /, 1884, by
Thomas Flanagan, Andrew Lawrence,
James Denny, Hudson A. Springer and
John Summerill, Jr., Trustees.
Il was received on behalf of the
Beard of Education by Edwin Leap,
the president. Supervisor Joseph NJ.
Wright supplemented the remarks of
Mr.. Summerill by telling the patriotic
duty of Americans, not only to repay
France for the help given by Lafay-
cite during the Revolution, but the
necessity to maintain the rights Of a
free people and keep it from destruc-
ton by German autocracy.

League of Nations Constitution

President Wilson read the text OF
the League of Nations Constitution IN
Paris last Friday and sailed from
Brest, France, last Saturday, on the
steamship George Washington.
The constitution is not all hat some
like It: it is more than some want. 1t
provides for a voluntary court to hear
disputes and complaints and a sever
anre of intercourse with those nations
who will not keep the covenants IN the
constitution and the finding OF the
court to be established thereby.
It is designed to stop the slave, arms
and liquor traffic in Africa and the
peaceful government of all countries
The political critics OF the League
Constitution and the fear OF some IN
Joining in it reminds us of the state.
ments made when the Constitution OF
the United States "a made, but more
50 when Thomas Jefferson, President,
purchased the northwest territory OF
France in 1903. Those obJectors
proved themselves to be little Amcrl-
cans. When the Federalists opposed
the war of 1912, it vas the death OF
their party. There are some IN the
[. s. Senate and prominent men out
side who are proving themselves m
h|eritors of the principles OF the Ole
Federalist party and showing them
selves to be little Americans.
Some of these politicians who are
proving themselves little Americans
were great shouters for President
Mckinley when he proclaimed in his
last speech that the day of provincial
national seclusion was past.
The socialist declare for the inter-
national brotherhood of all working
men. The trouble with them is that
they are mostly atheists who do not
recognize the laws of God nor man,
but only their own will and Go not
value brains. They fail to prescribe
laws for rules of morals and conduct
with Goodness as a guide.
The League of Nations Constitu-
ton provides a fundamental law for
the future building of a United States
of the world and uniform laws for the
government of all mankind. 1t will
lead to the universal rule of civil and
moral law and hasten the time when
battleships, cannon, rifles and their in
struments of human destruction will
be put in museums as relics of barbar-
ism with the rack screw and gibbet
used in the religious inquisition.
May God hasten the day. May w
all become big Americans in backing
up the League of Nations Constitu-
ton.
