Aroostook Weather
Ideal for Potatoes

Bangor, Aug. 22.-Aroostook coun-
ty is enjoying ideal weather for the
ripening of the potato crop, and
farmers say that two more weeks Of
it will add millions of dollars to the
value of the crop, which all season
has given promise of the best re-
suits.
Frequently in August the weather
is hot and the air moist, but this
year, thus far. the. temperature has
been cool and there has been an en-
tire absence of humidity and fog, the
great breeders of rust and blight.
There has been some frost in the
northern part of the county this
week, but no harm has been done.
The nights all season have been cool,
and even in daytime there has been
little excessive heat.

NOT so BAD AS REPRESENTED

The head of one Of the largest
mail-order houses in the world is
responsible for the statement that
with the exception Of the Dakotas
and Minnesota the Midwest appears
to be prosperous. The purchases
from naail-order concerns ought to
be a fairly reliable indicator of the
condition Of the farmers purse.
Senator Capper Of Kansas also
declares that the agricultural situa-
ton has been greatly exaggerated;
that Kansas is having the most pros
porous year in its history with COM
bined crops estimated at $4,000, 900.
These are hardly sound arguments
for substituting those farmers, who
have paid too high prices for the
land which they cultivate.

The Chanukah Entertainment Of
the Hebrew School Of the Hofheimer
Preventorium took place Sunday af-

ing of The Star Spangled Banner,
Minnie Rosenberg told the story of
Chanukah in very fascinating way.
A playlet in English, what Is To-
Night?" followed. Mayme Berman
gave the synopsis, written by Otto S,
Baum of the Hebrew play that fol-
lowed. A scene of "The Hasmoneans"
was given in a perfect manner. Harry
Lippman, only three years in this
who unfortunately lost mother
and father during tine revolution in
Russia, told us "why the American
flag means so much.' Mr.. Grammar,
one of the directors of the school, in
spired by the wonderful work he wit
messed, gave credit to Mr.. Turow,
teacher of the Hebrew School and
thanked him for the success he has
achieved. Prizes were given to the

CHANUKAH FESTIVAL, A
GENUINE SUCCESS

. More than five hundred people
crowded the auditorium and vestibule
of the Lyceum Building last Saturday
night, to participate in the historic
Chanukah celebration.
The evening was ushered in with
the beautiful ceremony of lighting the
Chanukah candles. Cantor Kwartin,
assisted by his splendid B. M. H.
Choir, conducted the ceremony in true
janitorial fashion. In addition, he and
his choir sang the beautiful prayer
"Adoshem Zichoronu."
Mr.. Harry NJ. Kaufman, chairman
of the Festival, then rendered an H.
Illuminating address. He pointed out
the analogy between the recognition
and celebration of Chanukah in the
present day and that of its inception
and celebration in the days of Judas
Maccabeus.
