PAYING WAGES IN FOOD

Translated into food at the prices
the farmer gets, it takes 62l2 dozen
or 1862, eggs to pay a plasterer for one
day of eight hours work in New York
City 1t takes 1712 bushels of corn
or a years receipts from half an acre,
to pay a bricklayer one day. It takes
% chickens weighing three pounds
each to pay a painter for one days
work in New York. 1t requires AZ
pounds of butter, or the output from
Ia COWS, fed and MIXED for twenty
four hours, to pay a plumber $14 a
day. To pay a carpenter for one days
work, it takes a hog weighing IT'S
pounds, representing eight months
feeding and care.-Dearbon Indepen-
dent.
The above show that the farmers.
the producers of food, are getting
little pay for their labor. Likewise,
the man who has money to lend may
get 5, or percent, but it does not
buy one days labor of mechanics
where it use to buy two days labor
of a mason or carpenter.

Before being permitted to be play
ed by Chinese coolies as a political
concession, about 1850, the game had
been in use by the royalty alone since
the days of Confusius, five centuries
before Christ. 1t has always been
called by this high class of Chinese
the game Of Pc Ling, a bird of intel
fiPonce. Upon allowing the rebelling
coolies to play the royal game the use
the name Pc Ling was forbidden.
Then came many names used by the
different sections of China. Nah
JCngg, Nah Dias Ma Chuck. The
Pc Ling bird of royalty was called
Nah Jongg, or hemp bird, by the
coolies.
In the introduction of the game into
America it is sought to have it played
according to the methods of cultured
Pc Ling, and so avoid the distortions
made by the coolies to have it another

THE FORWARD MARCH
OF DEMOCRACY

The people of the Ruhr land along
the river Rhine in Europe now occupied
by the French because the German
government will not pay the war dam
ages as assessed by the Reparation
Commission created by the Treaty of
Versailles during the World War, have
proclaimed a Republic and independ-
ance from the German government
which has been dominated by Prussia.
The Rhineland people announce will
ingness to pay their share of the
reparation as assessed and to live at
peace with the world.
The World War brought to an end
the rule Of Turkey by Mohammedan
religious Sultan. The younger Turks,
many whom have taken on the costum-
es and habits of Christian civilization
have become most influential in COVER
nment affairs. Many have been educa-
ted Ihe past forty years under Christ
ian tgtalage.
On October 29th the National As
Sc 5hlr at Angora voted to establish
a Turkish Republic. The Turkish con
-.itttirH W9- @"-ended within the
last few months that the proclamation
of a Republic was a matter Of form.
Kemal Pasha was elected President.
Thus the march of Democracy con-
tinues as the people become more
pn'ighteucd and united.
Secretary Hughes proposition for
this country to take part in revising,
with an expectation of reducingl the
amount Germany must pay France, is
a move to help Germany win the peace.

City, has been in the employ of Ger

Salem County's oldest voter is prob
ably Mrs. Hannah Cuff, 96 wears old,
Of Quinton. In spite Of her age and
the fact that she has to walk up a
long fight of steps to reach the poll
ing place at the town hall, Mrs Cuff
is looking forward to the general cleo
ton with considerable interest. She
has voted at every election since

Some of our citizens attended the

expecting Senator William H. Bright
would tell us about his project to gel

building a public highway across Del
aware Bay from Cape May to Cape

to build ferry approaches at both
capes and have a ferry boat to carry
automobiles at State expense. That

the biggest graft project that any

means for his one pastime, which is
to gamble. To gamble is considered
offensive to the principles of high
