Mr.. o. F. Roessler of Jefferson,
formerly publisher and owner of the
Jefferson Banner. was in Edgerton the
first of the week and called on old
friends in The Reporter office, Mr..
Knapp and Mr.. Smith, both having at

Ter resigned. At the present time he
is on the state board of control in the

ed, as Ben Springer always keeps the
Jail in an immaculate condition.

several to work out. One is the labor
question. The women folks on the
farms are more an more reluctant
about working in the tobacco field; the
farmer boy has had taste of city life
and the city job, and he is in the blaze
of the lure of the high pay and the
short day. To overcome the labor prob
lem is, perhavs, the matter uppermost
in the Lancaster growers minds. They
have the fertilizer, especially the stable
manure, but many are finding out that
additional use of commercial fertilizer
improves the growth of the leaf; and
to get the amount of this fertilizer
needed is worrying some of them. All
in all the prospects of an increased
acreage are not assured by any means.

ADMIRAL SIMMs testified before the
Senate Investigating committee that
the United States entered the war
without naval plan and without ma yal
policies. Admirals Rodman and Wilson
stated before the same committee that
the fleet was in better state of pre-
paredness in 1917 than at any time be-
fore, and that full and complete plans
were prepared. Our naval leaders
seem to differ slightly in their views.
Perhaps the German naval authorities
during the war would be able to throw
some light on the subject, as to who is
right in the matter.

BEGINNING the first Monday in May
the annual cleanup-dressup-paintup
campaign in Edgerton will be inaugur-
ated under the auspices of the Cham
Der of Commerce. The merchants will
join in making the campaign successful
by giving publicity to it in their ads,
by placards and handbills. The health
of the people living here, and coming
here, must be protected. Cleanliness,
in and out-of-doors, is one of the first
conditions of sanitation. No places
should be left for flies and other germ
carving insects and rodents to breed
and multiply. Get after all such places
and make them uninhabitable for these
enemies of the health of our people. A
thing of beauty and joy forever is a
tidy home with soft green lawn,
trimmed-up trees and well kept hedges.
Paint is protection against decay, an
investment for the property to be sold.
and a beauty to be enjoyed by all. A
lot of shining white houses along the
avenues of spreading naples and state
elms grazing the residence sections
of Edgerton, make everybody love the
place as we love it. Well titled garden
plots are profitable and promote health
and thrift. The influence of beautiful
surroundings upon the lives and ideals
of the people is potent. The mind be-
comes like the things it feeds upon
Let every person do his bit to make
Edgerton wholesome, cheerful, pleas
ant to live in. Boost her interests by
the things you do for her. Let it be
mentioned here: neat receptacles for
street and alley refuse, placed at con-
venient places all over town who will
tend to that? A system of closed gar
bage cans on every property, furnished
by the owner, and emptied at certain
intervals by the city-who will take
that matter up?

wages another 2 cents must be added.

in an address last night at a banquet

Addresses. dealing with clothing
problems were delivered by Louis

and Joseph Katz.
Henry L. Rissman of New York, In
a short talk predicSed that the retail
clothing prices will go higher as
product costs in all lines are not
expected to reach the peak until the
coming autumn. He denied that there
was any profiteering on the part OF
clothiers and stated that the Depart
ment OF Justice was unable TO ma
any cases in its investigation.
The men engaged in the clothing
industry, which has risen from q
menial station in the national life
to the third largest industry In the
country, prompted by the patriotism
which Is inherent in them, have CO.
operated in an effort to reduce the
high cost of the vital commodity
which they manufacture. and have
found II impossible" Mr.. Rissman
said.
The most important factor in the
high cost OF clothes is labor. Taiiors
are no longer hired for a pittance, be-
cause they are scarce. This Is caused
by the rapidity diminishing tide Of
immigration, which used to bring sew
eral thousand skilled clothing work
men to America annually"
Another factor in the high cost OF
clothing and other commodities, MI
Rissman declared, Is the income tax
Dealers can't reduce costs when they
have to turn back the greater part of
their profits to the Government, he
stated.
