THE HUNGER STRIKE

In Brixon prison the lord mayor Of Cork is slowly dying
by voluntary starvation.
Petitions have been circulated signed and sent forward to
the British from section OF the civilized
world begging that he be released that his protest against
Imprisonment be needed before it results in his death
The world does like to watch man die; probably
when he dies slowly and agonizingy. and by his WILL
principle which (howsocvcr mistaken Illogical
be the methods adopted by its advocaes) the great mass
of men must recognize as fundamentally just
The great pity of the thing that it there is nothing
which can be done about it.
England doubtless feels that she yield to
and release the lord simply because the world does
like watch him die, in doing she would establish
precedent which after compel her to the release
of all other prisoners who chose starve themselves
Whether she will continue, until the grim last
hold against the steadily increasing force OF the senti
ment for mercy probemacal and perhaps depends not
little on the speed with which the end approaches
In the meantime it unquestionable that wide and
attention has been attracted Ireland and her
ills through this mans spartan self mmoaton than could
have been drawn thereto by less spectacular painful
fashion of publicity management.

THE HIGH SCHOOL
ELEVEN PROMISES
GOOD FOR FUTURE
SCHEDULE STILL. INCOMPLETE
BUT GAMES WITH IONIA
AND OTHERS ARE BOOKED

The High school football team will
travel down to Lake Odessa to play
this Friday. Last week the High
school played team made up mostly
of Alumni fellows and came out at
the lower end of the score to 19.
This, however, gave the fellows lots
of practice so that they ought to
be in good shape for this Friday. The
weakness which showed up at that
time has been fixed up.
The schedule is not yet complete
but some dates are definite. I, Green
vile will be here October 1st and Bel
ding goes to Lowell the 8th of the
month. The next game comes Oct.
% at Ionia, and they come here Nov.
10. Odessa will be here the week
previous to this, Nov II or maybe on
Armistice Day, November IL.

G. r. NEWS GANG VISIT
FORMER EMPLOYEE

Friday night, September 18th, an
avalanche of young people deposited
themselves at the small farm just
inside the city limits, belonging to
+. M. Parney.
Their intentions were obvious and
were carried out to the finest detail.
An enormous campfire was waiting
for them, high on the bank of Flat
River and at one side of the fire lay
the east that their hostess, Luciel
Parney, had provided for the hungry
bunch. Piles of sweet corn, heaps
of "weenies", buns sandwiches and
pickles. A half Ibushel basket iof
grapes and nine lucious watermelons
as we'll as big pail of lemonade and
lots of candy.
Everybody "fell to" with will, and
consumed the greater share Of the
feast. The honors were divided be-
tween the roasted sweet corn and the
juicy watermelons. The fire itself
was a work of art, and did justice to
the hostess father, who was as much
of kid as any of the rest of the
bunch.
Lusty voices joined in jolly songs,
as the freight lit up the happy
group, and thrilling stories made
Riddles" of them all.
At late hour the party Of nine
"young couples" started their jour
ney home, taking their hostess with
them for weekend in grand Rap
ids, which she spent in visiting her
friend made during her stay in the
city this summer. She made the
"News" her stopping place Saturday
morning and worked on her old desk
for a time-just to call back memo
ries of when she was on the payroll
of the News and properly belonged
to the News family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Wander Meu-
len chaperoned the gang. This is
their second "big time" at Miss Par
ney's home, but not their last.

animation, tuesday morning. the

was cousin to Winkworth, who re-
sided in Grattan, Kent county, where
she was induced to go and which also
revealed a deplorable state of affairs
in the home, it was considered by
Mr.. Watt that in as much as the tes-
timony showed that the alleged crime
was committed in Kent county it was
a case for the officials of that county
to investigate and prosecute.
Mr.. Wnikworth was discharged
from the custody of the officers.

HOW HARVESTING
AND THRESH|NG
IS DONE IN WEST
FORMER LOCAL RESIDENT
TELLS OF THE DIFFERENT
METHODS EMPLOYED

Allie Brown, well known former
local man recently struck out for the
west, settling at lone, Oregon, where
he will reside for a time. Mr. Brown
has been working in harvesting and
threshing there and the following
letter which he has written about the
way they handle the big crops will
surely be of interest to his many
friends and to our readers in general:
lone, Ore, Aug. 8, 1920.
Editor Belding Banner-News.
Dear Sir
Having worked two weeks in
harvesting | can tell you something
how they harvest with combine in
Oregon. They let their wheat get
dead ripe, then they have a machine
called a header which they go around
the outside of the field and cut what
they call the right of way. This ma
chine cuts about Is feet wide, pushed
by mules. The mules are hitched
behind the machine and it is pushed
instead of pulled. 1t has a straw car
rier which raises and lowers. Then
they have mules on a wagon with
sfpig rack which are driven alongside
Of the machine and the grain is car
ried into the rack. This they use for
feed. The horses and mules do not
have any hay. They keep fat on the
straw and the grain that is in it..
the combine. 1t is a large machine,
26 horses and mules. They have for
leaders and A teams of 6 each, then
they have AS horse power gasoline
engine to do the threshing and when
they sack the grain they carry or 6
sacks and dump them in one place,
the same as binder dumps the bun
dies. Then they have another way.
They have mules hitched on a wagon
with big box that will hold from
80 to 100 bushels of wheat, the driver
goes along beside the machine and
the wheat is run by spout into the
box and this is carried to elevator.
loose. The people / am working for
have 1000 acres of wheat. They can
cut 40 acres a day with good luck
We have our camp now in 240 acre
field. They move at different places
and the cook shanty is on wheels and
the feed rack for the animals is on
wheels. Some have another way of
getting their wheat to market. have
seen mules hitched to wagon and
then two other wagons hitched on be-
hind, loaded with wheat. When they
have more than they can draw right
away they have big bins holding from
800 to 1000 bushels where they put
the wheat. These bins have no roof,
don't need any for it does not rain.
The sun has shone every day since
we came. They don't raise anything
right here but wheat. One can look
as far as they can see and not see
anything but wheat fields and ground
that will be put into wheat this fall.
We sleep out doors and the nights
are cool but one can sleep under 2 or
3 quilts with no danger of catching
cold for we don't even have any dew.
My work is keeping the camp suppli-
ed with water and feed. 1t takes about
8 loads of feed and about 1000 gal
Ions of water every day.
Now, you can print what you like
of this. / have tried to tell as near
as / can how they harvest with a
combine.
Yours respectfully,
Albert S. Brown,
lone, Oregon.

STAGE H0lDUP
AND ROBBERY
GET ABOUT $50
GIRL DROPS DIAMOND RING AND
WATCH AND GETS THEM
BACK LATER

While much of the talk of myster-
ious people and things heard and seen
in the dark here of late is clearly lit
tie more than bunk, real holdup and
highway robbery was staged on the
old and almost unused road which
runs along the top of the hill to the
west of the high bank in that side of
the river when three men approached
Clarence Abbey and John Christen-
sen, of Lakeview, who were sitting
in their automobile i'm company with
two girls from this city and demand
ed whatever money a n valu-
ables the four young people had with
them.
The two men and the two girls had
just been talking about robberies and
similar things when the three high
waymen came out of the bushes and
said "We1l take whatever you've got
with YOU" One of them carried a
flash light which he used and another
carried a revolver which he threat
ened to use in case any resistance to
the proposed program Of cleaning
out the victims pockets was offered.
While getting out of the car one of
the gills slipped off a diamond ring
which he was wearing and dropped
it in the bottom of the automobile
and at the same time slipped off her
wrist watch and dropped it on the
ground beside the car. The robbers
went through the mems pockets and
relieved them of something over $50
and other valuables. They then told
them to sect to hell out of here and
tell no one about this"
The young men did as they were
directed, but on Monday morning
came back and informed local officers
of the robbery. The scene was Wis.,
tied at once and the watch was found
where the girl had dropped it. No
clues were found to enable the Off
GERS to determine who the guilty par
ties might have been although the
opinion is freely expressed that with
the gang of chimney sweeps and
other tourists" who have infested
the city of late, we have had plenty
of characters who would think little
of pulling off job Of this kind.
y Some one at about three o'clck
Monday morning made an unsuccess-
full attempt to enter the Ed. Carpen-
ter home. The family awoke and
frightened the intruders away. II
was found that a window screen had
been torn off and large glass brok-
en- out, the crash of the breaking
glass awakening the family.

Fire At Lyons. Sunday Night

Many local people observed a large
fire southeast of the city Sunday
night and thought it must have been
over in the Orleans vicinity. Fires
at night usually appear closer than
they are and this one was no excep-
tion to the rule as it was the large
barns on the Webber farm, south Oh
LYONS. The buildings which burned
were large ones, one 30x7O, one BOX
60 and two story horse barn 2Ox3O,
a 60 foot tool shed, corn crib and hog
house. All farm tools, harnesses loo
acre hay crop, a large quantity OF
straw. $50 bushels of rye and l4Oo
bushels of oats also went up in the
smoke. Several cows and lot or
chickens were also burned.

dress and brought out from black
board illustrations that the 'tChal-
lenge of the Hour" was service and
urged upon all from the parent in
the home, the business man, the en-
ployer and the teacher, to accept the
challenge and not shirk responsibility

Had Strong Picture

We thank Manager Frank Joslin
and wife for the screening of "The
Confession" in their Empress theatre
and only regret that there were not
more people present to witness the
afternoon matinee which was given
purposely to take care of the people
who could have attended in the after
who could only attend the evening
performance. We feel that Manager
Joslin has earnestly striven to give
the people of this city. good, clean
moral and educational pictures and
that in "The Confession" he gave
the people of this city one Of the
strongest and most moral photodra-
mas which they have ever had a
chance to see.
