food necessary to feed the cities and the country
towns. ~
A. country town is dependent largely upon the
farming community adjacent to it. If those farms
become non productive for lack of help the coun-
try town is heavy sufferer.
And that is the condition in which we fear we
will soon find ourselves in the country towns.
The insanity of the cities has done its work only
too we'll.
If that insanity is checked in time disaster may
yet be avoided. But if not checked soon the crash
will inevitably come-and then the deluge.
Wholesale assininity has yet been known
to produce any permanent beneficial results. But it
has toppled kings from their thrones, overturned
republics, and let loose the widest passions of
ungovernable mobs.
The rural population Of America is not overjoyed
at the prospect the cities have forced upon the
nation we revere.

A MENACE TO COUNTRY LIFE

A MENACE TO COUNTRY LIFE.
Will our cities eventually bring disaster to our
country towns?
In doing this will they also bring ruin upon
themselves?
In accomplishing both of these will they become

There is grave danger that all Of these may
happen.

We might fill the columns of this paper with
such cases and still tell only small portion of
the story
This riotous of money in the cities is having
injurious effect upon country life. 1t is enticing
our young men and young women from US and is
leaving the rural communities stranded for help.
It is forcing to pay exorbitant prices for COM

The false lure Of sudden wealth is proving too
much for the country boy and girl. They are for

YOUR LIBERTY BOND.

The United States government borrowed money
from you to finance the You hold the govern
ments promise to pay you back. This promise is
called Liberty bond or Victory note. On this
bond is stated the conditions under which the gov
eminent borrowed the money from you.
For instance: If you hold bond of the Third
Liberty loan it states that on April 18th and
October 18th Of each year until maturity, you will
receive interest the amount you paid for the
bond. Other issues bear other rates Of interest
and other maturity dates, all of which clearly
stated on the bond.
Now, if you keep your bond until the date when
the government pays you in full for it, you do not
need to worry it, in the meantime the price is low
one day or high the next. You and Uncle Same
living up to your agreement with each other, and
neither will lose by it.
On the other hand, if you sell your Liberty bond
now, you will find that the man you sell it to will
not give you dollar for every dollar you paid for it.
The price has been brought down because SO many
people are offering to sell their bonds If the
market is flooded with tomatoes, you can buy them
cheap, but if everyone is clamoring for tomatoes
and there are few to be had, the price goes up.
The same is true of Liberty bonds Short-sighted
people are dumping them on the market, and wise
ones are buying them.
The best advice that can be given to the owner
of Liberty bond is this Hold the bond you bought
during the war; it is safe and sound the
United States government itself.
Buy many more at the present low rate as you
afford. If you hold them to maturity, you are
bound to make the difference between what they
sell at now and their face value. You will also re-
ceive good interest on your investment.
Hold on to your Liberty bonds

Columbus Jurist Holds
Truck Drivers School

What is perhaps the most novel
truck drivers school in the country
was conducted recently by Judge
Frank e. Ruth from his bench in
the courtroom at Columbus, Q. His
honor requested Columbus mortor-
truck drivers to appear in his court
for instructions in handling motor
trucks during traffic hours.
"Drivers of heavy conveyances can
save themselves considerable incon-
venience If they acquaint themselves
with traffic laws" said Judge Ruth.
Traffic ordinances and state laws are
so complicated, the court insists,
that he expects to give similar lee
lures at intervals. Experienced and
capable drivers are recognized by
truck operators as being one of the
greatest assets to the industry, and
the judges stand has been generally
approved.

AUTOCAR FL0URiSHlNG
Attracting Great Attention at Show.
PHILADELPHIA Product

The exhibit of Autocar motortrucks
is attracting a great amount Of atten-
ton. Any one who has been in the city
for more than a few minutes knows
that Autocars are hauling goods for
thousands of the business houses in and
around Philadelphia.
The Autocar is really Philadelphia
made product. Ardmore. where the fac.
tory is, is only nine miles from Broad
street on the Main Line Of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad. It would be well worth
the while of any business man to visit
this splendid plant that is known all
over the country.
Right in the city the Autocar Com
pany owns and operates its own direct
factory branch service station. Autocar
users are sure of the most complete
after sale service at all times. This di.
rect branch service policy is followed
out from coast to coast 1t has been
real factor in the great development of
the Autocar Company.

HNHE modern department store knows
i how much it costs to sell a paper of
pins. Accounting that goes into just
about the most extensive detail imagiu-
able and from beginning to end is rig
idly, almost painfully, accurate is be
coming the common and commonplace
characteristic of department store man !.
agement. 1t is not surprising to t1nd
that the store that knows how much 1t
costs to sell paper OF pins knows, also,
The cost of delivering a washing ma
ehine-or any other article that the
store sells.
Department store executives have
worked out delivery costs not merely
to the extent of showing what these
costs total in a year, or month. or
day. or for a certain line of merchandise
or certain department, but what they
amount to per packase-to three decl-
NAL places.
Competitive Point
Delivery is competitive point in the
department store business. In the opln-
ion of many customers, it's a part OF
the sale. Quality of goods being equal,
the store that establishes and main
tains q reputation for the promptness
of its delivery is the store that will
get and hold business The motortruck
that not only makes good in this sort
of delivery but makes itself business
eetter is the truck that keeps going,
running high mileages every day, month
after month and year after year. Truck
dependablity translates itself into terms
Of increased sales volume: and truck
durability writes itself into the asset
side of the balance sheet.
How we'll quality trucks are serving
department stores is evidenced by the
experience of Gimbel Brothers. who
bought twenty four trucks in 1911 as
the nucleus of q fleet that has since been
greatly enlarged. The twenty four pur-
chased in 1911 and one of the same
make bought in 1912 have run more
than 100, 900 miles each, and are still
In active service.
Fowler, Dick & Walker, Wilkes
Barre, Pa. thus summarize their ex-
perience with high grade trucks: We
have four trucks one bought in 1911,
one in 1912 and two in 1913. All are
in good running order today and they
have been running since we got them.
The first one must have run over zoo,
900 miles. 1t has had one thorough
overhauling. but other repairs nave
been few and not expensive. The three
others are giving equally good service.
Great Mileage
OF twelve trucks owned by the Hig-
bee Co, Cleveland, o.. one has GOV :
cred 265 600 miles, another 225 GOO and
another 100.946 miles. The others,
which have been in service for various
periods, have mileages ranging from
10000 to $4,000 The first Higbee
truck was bought in 1911. In eight
years of service it has Travelled an aver
age of 33 .12j miles a year. which
amounts to about 11o miles Gay Con E
cerninr the performance Of the feet.
vice President w. T. Higbee said: THE
twelve trucks have given excellent serv-
ice and have had comparatively little
or no mechanical troubles, in spite of
the hard usage they have had.

it the most searching test to which,

In the accessory department is seen
an interesting exhibit of Sewell cushion
wheels for motortrucks, employing a
unique principle by securing resiliency
in the wheel before the road shocks
reach the mechanism and working parts.
1t is simply wheel of rubber within
wheel. 1t has no springs or moving
tions and can be applied without alter

General Electric type of motor, giving
an optional choice Of battery, bevel
