Let the Farmer Watch His Step

The Of the Federal Farm Loan Board that
$200O00 available for farm loans under the agr
cultural credit law and interest which while high is heavenly
compared with existing will put heart into man
who for has been struggling under the burden of fnan
ca oppression but is hoped the tempting bait will not be
swallowed to the point of saturation.
The system will have the effect of reducing interest
charges in from 10 per cent per cent
haps less This sounds cymbas heradng approach to the
promised land but it should be forgotten that in
states interest private loans in of six per cent
considered usy and the lenders punishable under the
statutes However, there appears be law for the
mereial business and another for the farmer.
The law has nferentialy acknowledged that commercial
cannot thrive per cent interest rate and while
the relief of the farmer will be appreciated it will be found
mighty hard scrapng for the farmer get adequate reward
for his labor at this lowered rate Danger lies in the likelihood
that the farmer long used eXtoron will overborrow at
the rate and will be disposed to seek temporary in
finance not realizing that the mills of Wall Street like the
mills of the gods grind slowly but they grind exceeding small
and that the day Of settlement certain the day of judg
ment The farmer may obtain money 512 per when
borrowing through cooperative marketing association but
here again the overhead steps in and the additional charges foot
up to that still must make the ter Of the soil bend
the burden.

CITIZEN POLICE CLEAR IOWA
OF OUTLAW BANDS

Des Moines-(A. P)-Iowa, which
for many years was the stamping
ground of bank robbers, apparently
has become the "No-man's land" for
bandits and outlaws, as a result of
the activities of $500 trained vigil
antes.
The state bankers association,
which is re e5ponsible for the organi-
zation of the vigilantes, recently re-
ported that during the six months
ending July 1 there was not a bank
robbery in Iowa-a record unsur-
passed in recent years in the Hawk
eye state.
Losses sustained by banks and Gus
toners in Sc robberies during 1921,
before the vigilantes were organized,
totaled 1928, ,937S4. During the fol-
lowing year, when the vigilantes were
just getting under way, there were
30 robberies and losses of $54,941S5.
But 100000 was obtained in the year
just ended
The record of Iowa, the only state
having such an organization, has at
tracted the attention of bankers and
authorities throughout the state and
a number have visited here and OBJ
tanned working knowledge of the
system with view of having it in
troduced in their own states.

CIVIC CLUB FORMED
BY BOVILL WOMEN

BoviIl-Thursday August 2, the
women of Bovill held a meeting in
the school building for the purpose
of organizing a women's club. There
was a large attendance and the
meeting was called to order by Mrs.
G. e. Bovill, as temporary chairman.
Mrs. Bovill gave short address and
stated the object of the meeting.
There were several lines of endeavor
that could be taken up but she en-
phasized two of the most imortant to
be child welfare, such as procuring
playground equipment for the small
children and athletic features for the
older ones. Equally important would
be street improvement, looking to
keeping up of sidewalks and streets,
and general village betterment.
Mrs. w. w. Weed, of Deary, was
present and gave a very interesting
address, telling of the work of the
civic club in her home town of which
she was one of the charter members.
This address was highly appreciated
H. E. Daniel, village clerk, was al
so present and made an interesting
talk. He also informed the ladies that
representatives. VI lHG washington
Water Power company were in this
vicinity looking over the situation
with view to connecting Bovill with
their system. The sentiment of the
was strongly in favor of such
a project

Womens Civic club of Bovill was or
ganized with the following officers:

REV. ANDRE OCCUPIES
PULPIT AT TACOMA

The Rev. A. Andre, pastor of the
First Lutheran church at this place,
arrived at home Thursday evening
from the coast, where he had spent
month, making his headquarters at
Tacoma Rev. Andre, while in Ia
coma, filled the pulpit at the First
Lutheran church in that city, the
pastor being i'll. He also attended
the Luther League Bible institute at
Pleasant Beach, near Seattle, where
he delivered two lectures. The insti-
tute, Mr.. Andre states, was success
full affair, with more than 200 young
people present. He was also called
to Olympia to deliver lecture.
Rev. Andre, like Rev. Perry, was in
Seattle when President Harding visi-
ted the city, and had a seat close to
the president when he delivered his
last public address. He said that the
presidents face was drawn, showing
unmistakable evidences Of pain and
that he was at that time a very sick
man.
One of the most pleasant features
in connection with Rev. Andres trip
was the meeting of number of old.
time friends, some of whom he had
not seen in 80 years, or since their
boyhood days in Sweden. The chair
man of the board of the First Luth
eran church at Tacoma, now a promf-
nent business man in that city, was
an employe of Mr.. Andres father in
Sweden when the present Moscow
pastor was but boy, fact brought
out when the two men were compar-
ing notes.
Rev. Andre will again occupy his
pulpit at the First Lutheran church
in this city Sunday.

NEIGHBORHOOD OF HULL
HOUSE LOSING IDENTITY

Chicago-(A. P.-The neighborhood
of Hull House, for 80 years the
center of Miss Jane Adams work
among the foreign population of Chi
cago, is changing again, according
to the staff at Hull House and officers
of the Chicago Urban League. This
time the new comers are negroes,
thought to be moving from other sec
tlons of the city and southern states.
The population of the South Hal
stead street district has changed con-
siderably since the establishment of
the settlement by Jane Addams in
1889, workers there say. AS one
group becomes more prosperous, it
moves into less crowded quarters of
the city. Early canvasses made of
the district show large numbers of
Italians, Greeks and a sprinkling of
Irish. Greeks and Italians are still
in the majority, although Hull House
has in the last decade been offering
hospitality to large numbers of i'm
migrant Jews and to a small colony
of gypsies who are making their
home there.
When Hull House, one of the pio-
neer settlement house in the United
States, was established, Miss Addams
threw open her doors to the COM
munity and founded a neighborhood
gathering place as a democratic in
stitution. Everybody was welcomed,
regardless of nationality, in friendly
spirit. An effort has been made at all
times to persuade the various nat
ionalities to cooperate in the life of
the community.

their designations as a formality.
COupaI May Be Physician
Indications that Major James e.
Coupal of the army medical corps
might be the next personal physician
to the president were strengthened
today by the announcement that he
would accompany President Coolidge
to Marion for the Harding funeral. |
Major Coupal has attended the new
executive since he came to Washing
ton as vice-president.
