DAUGHTERS OF AMERICAN REVO-
LUTON ORGANIZE IN
CAPE MAY COUNTY

On Saturday, December 18th, the
organization meeting Of the county's
new d. A. r. Chapter was held at
Cape May Court House. 1t was an
important occasion for ladies of Revo-
lutionary ancestry who have allied
themselves with this national organi-
cation which claims many of New
Jerseys most able and gracious
women among it's officers, several of
whom journeyed many miles to honor
Cape May County and the women of
the Cape May Patriots Chapter.

donfield, vice president general from
New Jersey in the national organiza-
ton; Mrs. Henry D. Fits, of Newark,

the respective societies to the newly
born Cape May County Chapter.
A very complete paper on the early
history of our county as far back as
the beginning of the eighteenth GEN.
fury was read by Mrs. Morgan Hand,
of Cape May Court House. Mrs. Hand
told so much of interest centering
around the Courthouse that all pres
ent appreciated the particular appro-
p~riateness of enjoying their organiza-
ton meeting where much Revolution

house, of Cape May Court House, and
the singing of a lovely D. A. r. song
composed by Mrs. Rider for this oc-
casion, the Bellevue Hotel manage
ment served an excellent luncheon.
The decorations were flags and flow
ers, palms and ferns.
The Cape May Patriots Chapter of
the National d. A. r. should form an
important factor in our county ac-

A WORLD CONSCIENCE

Every person has a conscience.
Some persons, however, have a mar
row, instead of a broad conscience
conscience on some things rather than
on all things. So that there are de-
grees of conscience which correspond
to the breath of ones conscientious
ness. Here is one who never thinks
OF stealing from his own mother. vet
ne does moi hesitate to rob a neighbor.
such a kinship-conscience is a menace
to any neighborhood. Then there used
to be a rich man who lived in the
suburbs of New York, where he was
spoken of as a good husband and
~nelghbor; but when he entered his
Office on Broadway, he seemed to un-
dergo a change; here he was as sly
as a fox, as cruel as a tiger, as crush
ing as a panther; so that his COM
petitors called him "a man without a
conscience" Were they right? No!
A conscience he had, but it was a
suburban conscience, instead of a mu-
nlc1pal conscience. There is, also,
what may be called a constituency
conscience, which will be found oper-
at1ng in legislative halls, as when a
congressman thrusts his head into a
pork barrel" to grab all he can for
his own constituency, regardless of
the interests of the other localities OF
the country. Such a conscience is a
menace to III national life and is one
of the pests which inhabit all legis-
lative halls. What such folks need is
a broader conscience, a national
rather than a state conscience.
Yet, n must not stop even here. A
national conscience is not broad
enough. Germany spent twenty-five
years developing such a conscience
among her own people, which, not
w~ithstanding it's advantage, had this
weakness, that as soon as the German
crossed the border of the Fatherland,
his conscience ceased to work toward
Belgium and Poland and France, and
made him the menace of the world.
"Nationalism" is a vicious slogan,
which wrecked Germany and may yet
wreck America, unless we are on
guard. Its antidote is the interna-
tional conscience, which renders to
all their dues, regardless of language,
race, or nation. So that the true
American must possess a world con-
science al well as a world mind

The Story of
Our States.
By JONATHAN BRACE
aFS@ MIN N F.
MS1SSSM I1 sofa is
MMS8 SSM formed part
NsS I5N ly from a por-
MsA9SU ton of the
MNN&kSM Northw est
W%2W territory and
&1s5e:~ partly by the
Northeast section of the Louisi-
ana Purchase. It was the Mis-
sissippi river which was the di-
viding line between these two
large territories.
The Eastern section was coded
by France to Great Britain in
1853 and became a part of the
United States at the end of the
Revolution by the Treaty of Par
is in 1888. The Northwest ter
ritory was organized by con-
gress four years later. Then, as
this great federal domain be-
came settled and was gradually
divided into states, the Eastern
part of the present State of Min
nesota belonged in turn to the
Territories of Indiana, Michigan
and Wisconsin.
As to the western portion of
the state, this was a part of
the Louisiana Purchase, which
was bought from France by the
United States in 1903. AS this
region became subdivided, West
ern Minnesota formed a part
of the Territories of Louisiana,
Missouri and Iowa.
The first white man to pene-
trate to Minnesota was the
French explorer, Duluth, who in
1878 built a fort on Lake Super
ior and there established a very
extensive fur trade. Two years
later, Father Hennepin and two
companions we're sent by La
Sale to explore the Upper Mis-
sissippi and reached the Falls of
st. Anthony, where Minneapolis
now stands. But it was not I'M
til the Nineteenth century that
permanent settlements yer
made. In 1922 the first mill was
built at the Falls of st. Anthony,
where were destined to arise
such important successors. In
1871, Father Galtier built a
chapel dedicated to st. Paul, and
this was the foundation of the
present great city of that name.
AS to the name Minnesota,
the state was so called from the
river that runs through ii, which
in the Dakota Indian language
makes the words "Minne,"
meaning water" and "Sotah," !:
meaning "Sky-colored." Some
times the state is called the +:
North Star State" from the i:
motto on its coat-of-arms.
Minnesota was admitted to the i:
Unicn in 1858. Its area is a. i:
6S2 square miles and it is the ;
most important of our wheat :
producing states. 1t has twelve
presidential electors. .

Model Lumber Camp.

In spite of reports that the logg-
ing industry is at a standstill this
season in Northern Wisconsin, the
Park Falls Lumber Company. is
building model town at Loretta,
near Draper, from which to con
duct logging operations in that
district.
The new town is located near
the center of belt of timber about
sixty miles long by twenty miles
wide, the largest tract of standing
timber i'll Northern Wisconsin. In
order to log from Loretta, a model
set of camps has been built.
The buildings are substantial
frame structures with accomoda.
tions for 500 men. The sleeping
camps are steam heated, and light
ed by electricity, and are equipped
with individual spring beds and
other Conveniences for the men.
Two other large buildings con
tanning forty rooms for the fore.
man, clerks and other officials,
large roundhouse and machine shop
of reinforced concrete complete the
set of new structures.
The main logging line from
Loretta to Grand View, distance
of As miles, has been completed,
and in few weeks logging on
large scale will begin. 1t is esti.
mated that the Park Falls Lumber
Company has a cut of at least
twenty years on this tract alone.

MANY NEW SETTLERS
In NORTHERN WISCONSIN
Bureau of immigration Says that Ill.,
900 Acres We're Entered On and
Cleared in 1921.

Northern Wisconsin was entered
by 1900 families during 1921. who
settled on and cleared II2 900 acres
OF undeveloped agricultural land
according to G. M. Householder of
the bureau of immigration.
This report is based on railroad
returns to The state department
OF agriculture, and includes only
those settlers who entered with a
full carload of goods in their pos
session. Hundreds of others may
have pushed their way into the new
country but without record made
of them.
The greater number of settlers
have graduated from the industrial
centers of the middle states into the
realm of prospective home owners,
Mr.. Householder said They have
seen an opportunity to better them.
selves, he declared, and enter the
undeveloped country with back
ground of industriousness and
farming methods learned largely in
the Scandinavian countries, Ger
many and Poland.
Coming to their 8oacre tracts,
the newcomers usually turn to
pioneer methods and build log
houses from timber off their land.
Gradually they clear an area of
brush and stumps and prepare to
plant crops that will afford pro
6table adjunct to dairyiug, which
is almost uniformly the principal
industry of the settlers.
Once on the land the state,
counties and state university unite
to extend aid and advise. Tax ex-
emption is granted for three years
while the property is being develop
ed, agricultural agents give in
struCtions in farming methods and
aid in explaining new land clear.
ing methods, while the university
furnishes information and through
its experiment station determines
what the farmers of each district
can most pro6tably undertake with
their property,
Many of the same hardships and
privations that were borne by
pioneers who originally opened up
this state to settlement must be
undergone by the settlers in the
cutover regions of the north. Mr.
Householder said. Rigorous win
terS call tor a hardy type OF settler,
while clearing operations, he said,
require industriousness and a will
ingness to work.
For those reasons the bureau of
immigration tries to encourage the
more industrious types, trained in
dairy farming, TO enter the state as
settlers.
AT the present rate of settlement
and land clearing of vast tracts of
undeveloped land, it will take
100 years before the territory is all
under cultivation. There are said
to be resources sufficient to support
a population of several millions in
the undeveloped northern counties.
