The Journal said last week that il
was rumored that Thelma Pryor
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. M. W.
Pryor, formerly of this village, was
dead from the results Of an operation.
Since then we have learned that we
were in error and that the little lady
is making a good recovery from her
operation, for which there is great
cause to rejoice and the Journal is
glad is was wrong.
Miss futile has recently been en-
tertaining a very interesting group Of
relatives, among them being Mrs.
Sarah Hatfield Lewis of Brooklyn, N.
Y, whose grandfather Hatfield enter
tanned General Lafayette in 1924 at
his own mansion in Hudson, n. Y.
Hudson, in the Revolutionary War and
later on in the early years of the 10Th
century, was a shire town and a city
Of great Importance. II was situated
on a high promintory which divided
the Hudson river into two large bays
which were deep enough for any ships
at that time. The wharves were very
accessible and a large shipping trade
to the West Indies, also a large
whale fishing trade was carried on
there; also Hudson was an important
trading post with New York. Mrs.
Hatfield Lewis remembers well the
grand reception rendered General La
Fayette when he was met by Mayor
Hatfield in his barouche with the old
time handsome white horses and a
long procession Of notable citizens.

An Everpresent Help in Trouble.

NV ERE you ever close up to calamity which
w caused great human emergency? Did
you ever cyclone in its sweep pick
ing up dwelling houses and tearing them to bits,
tossing trees in the air and crushing great baid-
ngs? Did the air, full of smoke and cinders until
your eyes smarted and you had to breathe through
a kerchief, ever tell you of forest fire close by
which at night lighted the sky to the zenith with
sulen, ominous red? AS you investigated for
the safety of your family, did you pass
refugees carrying bundles and babies or baskets
full OF hastily gathered goods; autos, wagons
maybe, with all the family possessions and the
family trudging foot those with nothing saved
but their lives?
Did you hear Paul Revere alarm of
coming flood and witness the pitiless might of
moving water? Did you ever feel the absolute
helplessness of individual effort in the face of any
such catastrophe? If you have had any such ex-
periences you will thank God for Red Cross and
will not wait to be asked for a dollar, membership
fee. You will send it in to headquarters thankful
to the bottom of your heart that there is this or
ganization always ready, in peace in war, and
always equal to any occasion of need matter
what its magnitude, remoteness.
These dollar memberships form local and ma
uonal funds. When the time comes, there is no
waiting to collect money or to get city authorities
or State authorities to appropriate it. The money
IS ready and those authorized to it are ready.
Did you ever know a report to come over the
wires of community and large stretch Of terri
tory devastated, and within twelve hours see a
full Red Cross train loaded with every manner of
relief supplies from food to bandages pull out for
that locality from the nearest commercial center?
All the world is Red Cross. During the
and since, it has been denied access nowhere.
Even the Russian Soviet is not suspicious OF it or
OF American relief. 1t serves, just serves. That is
all 1t is organized only for service and there is
place of such danger that its flaming symbol
does not find its way there. 1t is the first in and
the last out, and when doors are closed to all
others, they opened to it. 1t is the worlds best
and truest exposition OF that unity of spirit which
will sometime bring all nations together without fear,
petty quibbling the surrender of some by
pothetca self interest.
But in preparedness for this, it so unites our
people that in the most remote places it is
known the binder in mercy and helpfulness to
all others This is still pioneer country; it is a
country OF many remote settlements we'll of

Scores Careless Auto Drivers.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
"A pity tits tits true. but true 1t is.
The District government might as
well save the cost of the white paint
and the labor involved in marking

see q motorist slacken his speed at
the approach to these lines, unless
held by the traf1c cop to let street

pleasures is to see pedestrians, re-
gardless of age or infirmity, hop,
skip and run in front of their cars.
Especially at the hour Of half
past four In the afternoon. when
hundreds Of clerks are trying to
reach their homes. 1t would seem
that they might show little good
feeling in retarding their speed al

reach their destinations So much
more quickly than the walkers. often
one has to wait for a dozen cars to
pass in both directions before at

divisions in the different sectors during the world
war and passing the American military cemeteries
in France and Belgium, one in France nearest to
the battle fronts between Paris, Chateau Thierry
and Montfaucon, with extension around the St.
Mihel salient, and thence through Luxemburg on
the route pursued to the Cobenz bridgehead by the
American army of occupation under the terms OF
the armistice, and the other from Paris to Chateau
Thierry and thence northerly on the French and
Belgian highways nearest to the positions held by
the Twenty-seventh and Thirticth American divi-
sions in the British sectors, and thence northery
past the American cemetery at Boni, to the posi-
tons held by the Thirty-seventh and Ninety-hrst
American divisions in Belgium, and thence on the
line of advance with the Belgian army under King
Albert into Brussels after the armstice.
Along these memorial highways simple roster
and historical tablets should be erected, giving the
names of American and allied divisions engaged at
the designated points and other simple memorial
tablets, indicative of the sacrifices and triumphs
of the Allied forces in the world war; to make the
memorial highway interesting and instructive to the
100000 American soldiers and their relatives and
descendants who will visit the battlehelds in in-
creasing numbers annually to the end Of time"
By placing the resolutions in the Congressional
Record Senator Pomerene calls public attention to
it, and the next step toward consummaton of the
historical societys request that the President ap-
point such commission, will be the pressure OF
public sentiment upon Congress and the passage OF
resolution authorizing and directing the President
to act Only the President himself would then be
possible an obstacle and he has often expressed
such friendly leanings toward the soldiers that his
assent is good given.

Medicinal Beer.

Medicinal beer has been striving to break
into the limelight for little time and when
ever any opportunity presents, some one has a
little piece to say about it. Pertinent and divertng
is the comment of the Rochester Herald on the
statement of Dr. Ben Reitman, of Chicago. The
editorial in question reads:
"a strong advocate of medicinal beer turns
up in the person of DR.. Ben Reitman, of the Chi
cago Health Department. DIR. Ben will be recalled
to many minds the medicinal attendant, for
several years, of Mistress Emma Goldman, the
anarchist, who is visiting in Russia. This
connection, perhaps, was largely responsible for
the appointment of DR.. Reitman to a place in the
government of Burgomaster Bill Thompson.
AT any rate, DR.. Ben out strong for
medicinal beer. He says it will go long way
toward improving the health of the nation.
Judiciously applied it will relieve home sickness.

which overcomes many business men at the ap-
proach of the quarterly income tax payment. He
calls it income tax collie. Medicinal beer will
greatly relieve the sufferings of the man who ap-
peas to the police to search for his missing wife.

seizes many women to shoot their husbands.

that many of my women patients losing their
of humor They short skirts when
they knockkneed, and bob their hair to reveal
scrawny necks. For these patients short dose
of medicinal beer sherry occasionally would
do world OF good. They suffer from 'revealts.' :"
"Dr. Retman is chief physician to the inmates
of the workhouse. AS scientific fact / know
of gentlemen giving the rock pile personal atten-
ton who are so mentally depressed that they don't
care if they get out" he said. eff these men
were to be told they were eligible to prescriptions

"A most convincing argument for the case of
medicinal beer, even if it does ignore the claims
of the feformers that prohibition has already

Archaeological and Historical Society, OF which
former Governor James E. Campbell is president
inviting the President of the United States to ap-
point American memorial highway commission
to cooperate with appropriate authorities in France
and Belgium, for the laying out of memorial high
way from Paris through various sectors where
Americans fought along the battle lines into Bel

luton asked that it be incorporated in the Con-

exactly the opposite view and I'M

that President Harding has proved
himself to be a very big man in
every sense Of the word and that he
gave a mastery address in a master
iy way. speaking the absolutely
solemn truth. in a very friendly and
pleasing manner. However we South

II Is there and that the power Of the
