A FINE
EXAMPLE

There are children starving in Eu-
rope. women are suffering, and once
strong men are breaking under the
strain which the war has given them
as an Inheritance. We are comfort
able here in our own land, and few Of
us have the least idea that conditions
are at this moment worse In some Eu-
ropean countries than history has ever
recorded. America has heard the cry
of starving children in Austria through
Herbert Hoover, and 1t is good to
know that she ia answering. showing
that she can forgive recent enemy,
and that her big heart will not per-
init little children to starve.
But the part OF this answer which
will strike Winnemucca residents most
forcibly is the answer being sent by
the farmers of this nation. President
Howard, of the American Farm Bur-
eau, said recently In a speech at
Chicago:
Farmers In 81 states have author
lied me as their president to offer
enough American-grown corn to feed
the starving millions of Europe, China,
Armenia and other foreign countries.
And I promise that the farmers will
deliver their offerings promptly to
the point Of shipment. This treasure
will come In voluntary gifts OF from
to 5000 bushels. Many wealthy farm
ers having given as high as 5000
bushels"
All that the farmers insist on is
the corn is not sold, but must go
straight to the people who need it.
The farmer is having pretty tough
time Of 1t himself just now, with
grain and stock prices declining. But
he comes to the front when trouble
appears, he realizes that the good in
the world outweighs the evil, and he
sets mighty fine example for the
balance of the world.

Ingram Wrecks French Village for

probably h biggest setting ever cou-
structed for cinema purposes. Near.

Metro workmen in the construction
OF tho buildings. Then the entire vii.

houses and tho stone castle, was raxed
under the FIRE OF heavy artillery used
TO represent the German guns In the
battle Of the Marine.
Ono evidence OF the caro- that was
taken TO reproduce tho battle scene
with complete accuracy was found in
h rebuilding that was ordered after
a careful inspection OF the village
houses by Rex Ingram. He dlscov.
cred thai three OF tho buildings had
not been made TO conform with the
plans of the village sent from France.
The buildings were immediately
wrecked and exact reproductions
erected in their places.
More than 5000 men participated
in the battle scenes. Constant drill,
