PIG FAMILY GROWS
EN- ROUTE TO BUYER

Employees of the Oshkosh Office of
the Railway Express have turned
nurses. They have family of pigs
on their hands and on account of the
cold weather they are puzzled to know
what to do with the group.
According to the bill of lading, they
were supposed to care for a crate con-
tanning lone pig" But when the
shipment arrived, they were sur
prised to find three pigs instead of one.
the crate containing the mother and
two tiny ones, born en- route. Beth
small editions of Mrs. Pig were sleepy
and hungry. To protect them from
the cold, the family was placed in a
warm stable, where they will be made
comfortable until the weather moder-
ates enough to send them on to the
purchaser, a man residing at Marke-
san, Wis.
The purchaser is lucky chap, ac-
cording to the express employees, for
he got three times who he paid for
and pigs are worth real money these
days.

HIGH COST DRIVES MAN HIGH

At a meeting of hotel men at Chi
cago it was held the high cost Of liv-
ing was driving man into skyscraper
buildings, that he was reverting to
an altitudinous mode Of existence. as
in the days of arboreal life Expen-
sive cooks and servants also the de-
sire to escape the many details Of
maintaining a home, were the causes
which were driving him into tall build
ings was the belief of those assembl-
ed.
Instead of man seeking hives in
which to live, would it not be far bet
ter to find a home in the open in a
small house, surrounded by a few
acres. Here there is greater freedom
and longer life. A skyscraper may
solve the problem for the present but
it does not look like a permanent ans
wer to the economic situation.

GOODBYE N. P. |.

1t is not quite fair to say that North
Dakota has kissed the Non-P Partisan
goodbye. The primary recently saw
the defeat of the n. P L. candidates
for presidential delegates to the par
ty conventions. A (blizzard showed
in many precincts. But the trend of
the vote against the N. P. L. was too
definite to be explained. If North Da-
kota is not kissing the n. P. L. good
bye at least the N. P. L. can hear the
old man stirring in the bedroom above
and will make a swift getaway mighty
soon.
The NonEPartisan League is one
of the innumerable voices crying in
the wilderness. The knights Of La
Dor the Greenbackers, the Farmers
Alliance, the Insurgents, the Bull

The Man Higher Up

The following article was furnished
by the bible class of one Of the chur-
ches of this city for reproduction in
this paper:
The main truth about our nation
to-day is one which all history en-
forces, that the greatest wealth of a
nation is in great men. The history
of Israel in the rough times Of the
judges was like the history of every
nation in that its days of prosperity
and power were the days when a
true leader was at its head.
AS long as stout-hearted Joshua was
the leader of the Isaraelites the pre-
vailed against their enemies. The con-
tagion of his fearless spirit was
caught by the ranks. His righteous
ness became the practice of the ma
ton. When he died and his place was
taken by feeble men who did not have
his faith or obedience to God, Israel
ecame an easy prey to it's neighbors.

PRINT PAPER SHORTAGE
DUE TO LACK OF TARIFF

Upon the Administration at Wash
ington because of failure to en-
act an adequate tariff in the Under
wood law, is laid the blame for the
present scarcity of print paper in the
United States by Representative James
r. Mann, of Illinois. In a speech in
the House he said:
'"The situation concerning print pa
per in the United States today is very
deplorable to say the least. Whether
it can be remedicd by more equitable
of paper I do not under
take so say Newsprint paper is made
out of what is known as ground pulp
wood Ground pulp wood is made out
of spruce wood, in the main, with
some balsam fir used with the mixture.
Up until the time shortly before the
time, the special committee made an
investigation on this subject a few
years ago there was plenty of print
paper in the United States for all con-
sumption at a very low price.
But the spruce wood is very limited
in area in the eastern portion of the
United States. It does not do very
much good to have large quantities of
spruce wood on the Pacific Coast or up
in Alaska, because freight rate became
almost prohibitive. The great supply
of spruce wood IN this continent is
in Canada, just nth of us. Immense
forests of spruce wood are there, and
the paper mills supplying the news
print paper for the United States are
located principally in Main, New York,
! Wisconsin, and Canada. Up to a
few years ago we had tariff on print
paper Of SIS a ton. =, :sss . a.

THE OLD HUSBAND

Many have argued against ''Decem-
her-May" marriages. 1t has been said
that there can be little happiness for
either if the husband is considerable
older than the wife, and they have IN
earthed divorce court statistics to
prove the case
But take the romance of DR.. Julius
G. Ward and his wife of New York.
The doctor is Y, Civil war veteran.
His wife is 35. Just the other day the
Ward family's happiness was filled to
the brim by the coming of a baby,
who by the way, is the youngest child
of civil war veteran.
Mrs. Ward is a splendid type Of
young American motherhood, and
volunteers information that the stories
of unhappy marriage where there is a
disparity in the ages of the contract
ing couples are all wrong.
"Wait for the right man." she ad-
"vises girls, "and take him, regardless
of his age or wealth or of what people
may say-take him if you love him. -

Why Be a Church Member?


Hon. Homer Hoch, Methodist lay
man of Marion, Kansas, and member
of congress, his. father twice COVER
nor of the sunflower state, has writ
ten an article on why Be a Church
Member F" The article has been sent
to this office for publication by L. B.
Irish 1t follows:
"The church is a failure" Have you
heard that sort of charge? | have,
and I have looked the gentleman up.
And I found that ten times out of
nine he was one of the folks who have
been very busy doing nothing to keep
the chruch from being a failure. OF
course the charge is both false and
foolish. The church has not failed
it as been a very great success. For
without the church the world would
have gone to wreck long ago. Oh, it
is true that sometime it looks like
the world has gone mad, and that on
Iy disaster is in store. Even that is
a mistake, born of little faith; but if
that is what you mean say that the
world has failed in spite Of the
church, No, indeed the church is
not perfect. Even the Good Lord
couldn't make a perfect church out of
such a poor job lot of folks as he had
with which to make it.
But with all it's mistakes and it's
imperfections the church has been the
cI,1,o sy7
It has been the reservoir from which
has flowed the moral leadership in
every country, in every age. Ask our
critical friend if he would rear his
children in churchless community?
A churchless community is but a
weak suggestion of what a churchless
world would be.
Yet some one still asks church mem
bers to tell why they believe in and
support the church!
] am a church member because |
believe in the Fatherhood of God, in
the Diety of Jesus Christ, in the pow
err of the gospel to win against the
malignity of sin, in the healing
beauty of service, in the glory OF
righteousness. These things the
church is organized to teach and to
vitalize in the lives of men. And the
church will weather the storms
through which the world is passing
Some of it's methods may be changed,
some Of the things we have blind1y
cherished may have to give way. but
cut of the turbulence the church will
come with new vision, new unity. new
purity of purpose, new hope for
bruised and stumbling humanity.
Laws may help. movements" may
hasten, but after all the only thing
that will save the old world is the
eternal truth of the Fatherhood OF God
and the Brotherhood of Man realized
in the individual man and in society
through the life, the death, and the
teaching and the triumph of Jesus
Christ. For that the church stands
all else in secondary.
And the battle for righteousness
still goes on. The church is the re-
cruiting station for the army-the
church is the army! And only one
choice remains-to join the colors
or to join the slackers.

MUCH DISTRESS
in OBERAMERCAU

During the past winter the Catholic
Woman's clubs of Wisconsin united i'll
donating to the Passion Players in
Obermergau, who are very much in
need of funds, and as a consequence
are unable to give their famous play
this year. The following letter Of ap-
probation has been received by the
secretary Of the Catholic Woman's
club of Baraboo.
Oberamergau, Jan. Is, 1920
Dear M. j. Griffin:
Two very kind letters with checks
have duly arrived and both my hus-
band and return deepest thanks for
your kind gifts sent to us. Having a
family of six children ourselves, we
know the great difficulties in getting
food and cloth and you may be sure
that the money will be given and divi-
ded where it is most needed. 1t is so
very good of you that you have been
thinking of us and trying to help us
to enable to give the Passion Play.
May Gods blessing rest upon you and
all the kind g1VerS!
Life did not spare us from wars,
sorrows and WEAKNESS, we know
what hunger is like and sickness has
been almost in every house. We on
ly hope and pray that nations may
join and find themselves once more in
the love Of our Saviour the Greater
and lover of all men!
The papers had given several alarm
ing reports of my husband but he had
never been called to front service. In
1917 he was to go into barrack P but
he was much too delicate, soon he be-
came i'll Of lung troubles and then was
sent home It had been an anxious
month for me until he got better for
milk. butter, meat and even bread
had been so rare all about at that
time. Now it is a little better, though
not with milk and butter but the
prices are so terribly high that one
has to work hard just to be able to
get the most necessary for ones daily
living. Besides shoes and cloth are
such terrible prices charged for that
we do not know what to do in the
future! Strikes and troubles in the
country, no coal or engines for rails,
not enough food for its own people we
can impossibly think Of having the
Passion Play this year still we hope
1921 may bring us nearer to it. Hav-
ing been here yourself you may best
realize how deeply we regret this dis
appointment We thought it beauti.
full start for nations to unite here in
our Saviour's love who gave His life
for us poor sinners.
| We lost over 20 men in war. sew
eral splendid musicians and singers
also Lazarus though none of the main
actors you may remember. Some had
been too old, still we lost some splen'
did youths with whom we had to
count with.
Though our wish for blessed year
reach you late they are deep and sin
cere.
Reiterating our deepest thanks and
greetings to you,
i Ever yours,
MATHILDE LANG
We never thought we had such sin
cere helpful, kind friends SO far away
and are deeply touched.

WILL PROTEST
 THE SHOP STORES

Members of the Bridgeport Grocers' and Butchers association will meet tomorrow night at o'clock in Kota Hall on Broad street to form a plan of action to be taken in protest of the ated in the factories in this city. Pres ident Phillip OConnen of the local association will preside at the meet ing.
 At the state convention which was held in New Haven on June 16 and at which meeting Eugene l.. Sullivan of this city was electedtspresident, a. spe- cfal committee was appointed to make a state wide investigation of these CO., operative stores and it is expected that report will be made at tomor- row nights meeting on the commit tees findings.
 President Sullivan would not say this morning just what action would be taken following the meeting other than protest would be submitted to the local Manufacturers' association in hopes of doing away with these that no legal action could be taken on the part of the manufacturers; would probably help to dispense with the stores. The butchers and grocery men of the city say they cannot con- pete with the prices of the co-opera- tive stores and that goods in these stores are being sold at prices of what the different articles cost them whole sale.

OXFORD OBTAINS
 PROFESSORSHIP
