DESPITE Germany's vail over the occupation of the Ruhr district and the deportation of her families, we cannot help but remember that she has brought it upon herself. Had she gone ahead and met her separations payments, and delivered her coal to France as promised in the Versailles treaty, she would not now be in the position she is. It is true that she is unable to pay IA billions of gold francs, but the reparations sum would probably have been lowered. As it is Germany believed that she could re- fuse to make her payments and that other nations would protest against France collecting by force; but as usu- al, her statesmen guessed wrong.

THE WOMAN'S jury bill has once more been brought to the attention of the Senate, with probability of its being passed in some form or other. A majority of the womens clubs have signified that they wish no further ex- emptions than are allowed to male jurors, and on this basis it may be passed by the Senate.

However, there is a difference be-
tween 5000 years ago and today.
Only kings had dress forms then,
while today few rural women in the
state are without their paper tape
form. Since the introduction of the
paper tape dress form by the clothing
specialist of the extension service of
the State College, four years ago,
1902 forms have been made by the
rural women.
Another difference between the

that the former one was carved and
gilded with gold, costing a large sum
of money, while the brown-hued like
ness of milady costs but $1.O0 though
it is valued at nearly $40. These
10000 women who have made the
forms, place total value on their
work of $105,79O.
The whole business OF developing q
process which was carried on among
the kingly 5000 years ago, was start
ed in 1919 in Washington, and has
been conducted by local leaders who
were shown the method of making
the forms by the county home demon
stration agents or the state extension
clothing specialist and in turn became
responsible for training groups in
their own community. Each woman
making a form promised to help four

cline. The new roads in process OF
construction are also helping tenn
porarily this section, altho l fear that
some of the sections will not feel so
prosperous when the time comes to
pay off the road bonds which they
are now so freely issuing.
"The last great industry to benefit
from a building boom is the furni-
ture industry. After a house is put
up, new furniture is always purchas-
ed, even tho the family moves from
some other house. Now nearly four
fifths of the furniture manufactured
in the United States is made in this
Industrial West l forecast great
activity for this industry during 1928.
There is liable to be even a furni-
ture shortage. Those who contem-
plate buying new furniture during
1928 should make their purchases at
once. The industry is not one that
can quickly expand. It also is very
dependent upon transportation, which
is liable to congestion thruout the
year. Remember that there are few
er miles of railroad in our country
today than there were ten years ago.
Terminals are becoming more con-
gested every year and industries,
which, like furniture, are SO very de-
pendent upon the railroads, should
count upon this unfavorable factor.
This is also true of the paper indus
try, which is thriving in this section
and which is continually becoming a
greater factor in its prosperity.
81 have said nothing about the ag-
ricultural outlook for this section be-
cause I shall treat it in detail next
week. when discussing the purely ag-
ricultural states. Suffice to say, l
found it improving and very much
better than year ago. The. wiser
farmers, however, are going more in
to dairying and the raising Of market
garden products. Beans, peas, cab
bage, lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, fruits
etc., are becoming the most profitable
products. Dairying and poultry rails
ing alone is bringing about $500, 000,-
900 year into this section. Because
of the diversity of income and the in
creasing profits, fell optimistic as
to the farming possibilities within
reasonable trucking distance of good
sized cities. When the farmers of this
section get broader vision and real
ize that each prospers, only as the
other prospers, then they can all pros
per. The great enemy of the average
farmer is not the natural elements
without himself but rather those hui
man elements within himself. Gre
alive nature has been good to the
farmer, but human nature has been
the farmers greatest obstacle. When
the farmers eliminate jealousy-they
will star on the highway of prosper
ity-but not until. The best antidote
for jealousy is co-operation-yes, a
greater spirit of cooperation is what
all Americans need today"

InauEurated Fifteen Months Ago.
About fifteen months ago. George
l.. Cain, vice president OF the society
and chairman of the general enter
tainment committee. which is arrang-
ing the historic event, broached the
plan OF having Massachusetts repre-
sented on the, reservation by trees
from that state. Mrs. Warren e. Hard
ing previously had planted what is
known as the "Armistice Elm" and
locations had been assigned to for
eign governments who VIII plant trees
over 4 stretch of ground to be known
as the allied Governments Avenue of
Memorial Trees
Action on the plan, which was
unanimously indorscd. was deferred
at that time. however. because the
Lincoln Memorial had not been COM
pleted and had yet to be dedicate ed.
So the matter was allowed to stand
until more opporttne time.
At the melting of the society, No

pointed to be known as the ENTER

were given Its chairman. Mr.. Cain, to
