OXEN

AN old Ohio city, planning to cele-
brate its anniversary, wanted yoke
of oxen to head the procession, COM
memorating the fact that its original
settlers had come from Connecticut In
oxcarts. The surprising thing is that
1t found them, but a greater surprise
follows.
The Medina county farmer who owns
those oxen has three or four span of
them. Furthermore, he uses them
right along on his farm, insisting that
his primitive beasts Of burden do
twice as much work as horses would
do, and that they are better than
tractors.
Can this be true? The question OF
the relative efficiency of oxen and
horses and of horses and tractors has
been considered as settled. This old.
fashioned contention seems to call for
e showdown.

The case Of Rosa Swinehart, who

Lindsey, neighbor of Rosa Swine
hart, started out to raise by sub
scription paper money to meet the
cost Of an operation that might possi-
bly, save the life Of the sufferer. She
had secured pledges amounting to $50
toward the $3.50 necessary, when she
was referred by the Chamber Of Com
merce to Capt. Terrill Of the Saliva
tion Army for an investigation. Find
ing the case deserving Capt Terrill

to the $50 already pledged. The phys

German Press Is
Pleased by Peace,
But Issues Warming
BY FRANK f.. MASON,
International News Service.

BERLIN, Aug 26.-Leading Ger.
man newspapers today expressed sat
isfaction over the signing of the Ger
man-American peace treaty. but the
people were warned not to expect too
much from It,. The public was told
that the separate treaty with America
will not change the conditions that
have already been imposed upon this
country by the treaty of Versailles.
Germany is expected to ratify the
treaty without any delay, and German
officials believe that the American
Senate will not give prolonged de-
bate to the document when 1t is taken
up.
The lack of ceremony attending the
signing OF the German-American
treaty was In deep contrast with the
pomp and ostentation that accom-
panied the signing of the treaty of
Versailles.
Little Ceremony.
The reporters and camera men
Including moving picture opsratorsj
were received by a secretary of DR..
Won Haniel, secretary of state for
foreign affairs, and ushered into an
anteroom, where they cooled their
heels while the signatures were be-
ing affixed.
About ten minutes later Commits
sioner Dresel emerged from the for
eign secretary's room and said that
1t was all over. The signing had
taken only about ten minutes. Tho
movie operators made up for their
lost opportunity by swapping Mr..
Dresel as he left the foreign office
and re-entered his limousine.
The American commissioner told
the correspondents there had been
no speeches, but DIR. Won Rosen, who
received the newspapermen later,
said that a few remarks had been
made.
According to the foreign secre-
tsry, Mr.. DreseI, after signing. said
that he hoped German-American re-
Iations would assume their normal
course.
Foreign Secretary Won Rosen re-
vealed that he had said In reply:
Germany, In signing this doou-
ment, has her eyes upon the fu-
ture. We have the hope and con.
viction that IT will lead TO a re-.
sumption of formal relations. parti,.

The treaty text was drawn I'm In
two parallel columns, one English
and one German. 1t is a compars-
lively brief document, much shorter
than the treaty of Versailles. Com.
missioner Dresel will send the Amer.
lean copy by the next diplomatic
courier that leaves for Washington.
Ellis Loring Dresel. the American
commissioner, accompanied by four
members OF his staff. rode around
the corner from his headquarters TO
