LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
The BaIdhead Club Founders and
 Originators.

The BaIdhead Club Founders and
 Originators.
 The four men in Falls Village who formed the original bald head club were Pope Chapman, Walter Kellogg, John Belden and Ruben Whitford. The first named gentle man died few years ago. These four men were bald. They wore no wigs or toupees to conceal the fact. They, in an idle hour of talk on many subjects remarked on their bald headed state and then and there united to form the now so-called Baldhead Club of America. Their ambition scared not so high as this. They sought no publicity, but agreed to meet once a year in their own little town and eat, drink and be merry. And so they did. They, and they alone, were the originators, the prime movers, or what ever you may call it of the Baldhead Club. It mat ters not who took up the Falls Will lage Baldhead's Club, gave it public ity and helped later on to puff it and huff it and blow it, until it finally en- larged itself and began to take in more and more Baldheads.
 The fact still remains that these four named men of Falls Village were the real founders of the Bald head Club. To them belong first honors, and should the National and International and even superna- tional Halls of Fame ever become garnished, tarnished or vanished with the names and sculptured busts of famous Baldheads, let the real founders and originators of this Club be remembered and given due honors and recognition, by placing their names and marble busts at the head of the long, colonnade of other busts of Immortal Baldheads, one of whom has already gone ''to that ra- diant bourne and blissful, thither- ward our journey lies"
 1t matters not how many later inn mortals foregather at Baldhead ban quets, the first banquet and several subsequent ones were held at Falls Village and the banqu ueters were only four, the aforenamed original foun- ders of the Baldhead Club of America.

GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

With it's issue of April 23rd, liar vey's Weekly ceased publication. Not because of high prices for labor or raw material, the reason for many papers suspending during the past few years, but because it's work was done. This is reason enough. For one we are glad with Col. Harvey, it's editor, that the country no longer needs a publication that will dig up facts and present them with so forci- ble nature to the public at large that the incumbents of public office cringed before his revelations of mal- administration.
 That Harvey's Weekly was purely partisan in politics could be ascer- tained from reading almost any one paragraph in any of it's issues. But it's editor frankly admits that he was strong for Woodrow Wilson dur ing his first campaign, which may account in some manner for his doing penance during the past three and one-half years by publishing a paper which upheld Republican poli- cies and Republican office-holders generally.
 Harvey's Weekly was unique; it was in class by itself and undoubt- edly one of the most fearless publi- cations ever printed. It was first published, with circulation of few hundred, for the one purpose of aid ing the Allied cause and later to res cue the country from the power of the Democratic administration. On it's "death bed" it confesses to a cir culation of more than 10000, which . shows to some extent the number of Americans who were in sympathy with it's policies.
 It is hardly fair to say that this Weekly is dead, for should occasion again demand, we believe the Colonel will be ready to revive it. 'Twould be better to say it had re- tired from active life. It is gone but will not be forgotten for many years to come.
