MASS MEETING OF BEREA
CITIZENS

Before the war Berea had a very
live and influential Civic League,
but the excitment of the war pulled
every energy OF our people into
different lines of war activities,
and separated our thought from
local matters. Now that the war
is over, or seems TO be, we should
once more give our attention in
part to local matters. Many needs
Of local nature are soliciting our
interest, and we can meet those
needs only by united effort and
in a neighborly fashion. There are
various phases of city improve
ment, law and order, social and
educational advancement, which
can be secured through the united
effort Of our citizens.
We need TO talk over the situa-
tion and get our old organization
the Civic League, on a firm foot
ing once mere. We need to re-
organize, elect officers, and lay out
program of community service.
In order to do this, we should have
a large gathering of citizens at
the public school building, Mon-
day night July 5, at 1880. Every
family in town should be repre-
sented. We will have some light
drinks" that will not even trans
gress the Volstead Act, which is at
tracing national attention just
now. | doubt if they will even be
as strong as Billy Bryan's grape
juice ! Come, anyhow

Watching Life OF Plsnta

Of which the Indian scientist, Sir j.
G. Bose. has been making visible In
London the ingrowth Of plants shows
that he does much more than make
visible what everybody already knew
that plants increase In size. He also
has revealed that the growth Of a
plant is by no means steady or con-
tinuous-that II Is affected by many OF
the influences besides mere nutriment
that affect she growth Of animals. In
short, this machine, which is called a
crescograph and magnifies movement

much more alive than II Is customary
to credit them with being, and II is not
an altogether fanclful notion that
when the facts in relation to plant
life become better known, something
of consideration for their feelings"
and something Of compunction about
treating them cruelty may develop.

A FORWARD STEP FOR BEREA

A number Of citizens responded
10 the call Of DR.. S. r. Baker to meet
him at the Public School Wednes-
day morning. The proposition
TO secure for the public school the
lots on Chestnut and Boone streets
which now belong TO 5. r. Baker
and r. II. Chrisman and others, was
considered. IL seemed TO be
unanimously agreed that the public
school should have all these lots
SO that the school grounds would
occupy the whole corner.
After a few minutes Of informal
discussion, Dean F. f. Matheny was
made chairman of the meeting and

things which might be needed in
carrying out the plan.
The following were appointed to
serve on this committee: J. l.. Gay,

ing may be held at the public
