reviewing the outstanding accomplish

during the last twenty-five years, Mr.
Shepherd emphasized the reward given

"The achievements of the past are
the groundwork for the opportunities

THE SOOTY CHIMNEY is
DANGEROUS

Chimney sweeps long ago went
out of fashion, in this country at
least, which may be considered I'M
fortunate at the present moment in
view of the need for their services
to overcome the effects of the hard
coal famine.
This is especially true in the
Northern Atlantic States where
during the past winter, thousands o.
tons of soft coal were employed fo1
the first time in heating appliances
not designed for it's use, Furnace
fire-boxes proved too small for
proper combustion, as did chimneys
and the outcome was heavily sooted
flues and numerous fires.
Cleaning smokepipes and fiues vat
least once a year is, decidedly
necessary, even in regions habitually
consuming hard coal. Unless they
are looked after before the fall
there will be a regrettable number
of chimney fires next winter. a
rag-wrapped brick lowered inside OF
the. chimney and scraped up and
down will accomplish excellent
results.
The smokepipe running from the
furnace or stove to the chimney,
should be taken down and smartly
raped with a stick to dislodge its
incrustations of SCOT; if it has be-
come badly rusted, it is dangerous
and should be replaced.
Such carefulness will furnish its
own reward in the form of better
draft and much greater fire safety.
Now is the time to act.

FRIDAY, JUNE 4, 1926

Chautauqua is the agency which
brings to some 100000 people
annually weeks program OF lee
lures, entertainments, music, plays,
and special children's activities
which they would not, and for the
most part could not, duplicate else
where. The first Chautauqua was
held at Chautauqua Lake, New
York. Hence the name.
Statesmen, editors, lawyers, trav-
ellers, scientists, sculptors, all kinds
of talented people are on the
typical Chautauqua program. By
standardizing a weeks program for
hundreds of communities the cost
is kept to the minimum consistent
with the high standards and high
ideals which motivate the Chautau-
qua movement. Non-partisan and
non-sectarian, it is an open forum
for discussion. Roosevelt, Taft, Will
son, Harding and Coolidge have
strongly endorsed Chautauqua as an
important educational agency and a
builder of national morale.
Calamity-howler and prophets OF
despair should face the Chautauqua
audiences of America to have their
eyes lifted up, their faith restored.
BY it's neighborly contacts and free
discussions, Chautauqua breaks down
barriers of party, class, and creed
and leavens our whole national life
with spirit of tolerance hope, and
the joy of living.
A meeting of the Democratic State
Central Committee has been called
by State Chairman j. Enos Ray, for
June 16, at the Hotel Rennert in

PEACE SECRETARY
Department To Rank Equal With
Army And Navy Advocated
By Society OF Friends

Army And Navy Advocated
BY Society OF Friends
A Peace Department on equal
terms with the War and Navy
Departments was recommended by
the Society of Friends at the sessions
of its recent Yearly Meeting in
Philadelphia.
The plan would provide for a
Cabinet officer who would devote his
entire efforts to the promotion OF
international peace and to the stab
lishment of ways and means for
bringing about amicabie settlement
in time of crisis.
The recommendation which was
originated with the Concord Quar-
terly Meeting held recently at
Media, was brought to the Yearly
Meeting by George A. Walton and
was received with hearty approval
President Coolidge will be asked to
cooperate, and the committee on
Peace and Service was at the same
time instructed to secure aid OF other
Friends societies in making the plan
success. !
BY special recommendation the
meeting directed the copies OF the
letter it had ordered sent to General
Lincoln C. Andrews commencing his
work in the enforcement of prohi-
bition, sent to all United States
Senators and Representatives as
well.

ARE WE GOING BACK To
THE JUNGLE ?"

The JONNiLE |!
The lecture, Are We Going Back
to the Jungle ?" to be given on the
third evening of Chautauqua, is
timely, thought provoking and
unique in subject, material and
treatment.
1t deals with the dangers that
numerous earnest prophets of de-
spair contend threaten our civiliza-
ton. Their writings and utterances
are analysed, their warnings de-
scribed and their suggested rem
edies examined and weighed. In
words so simple and with illustration
so Illuminating as to be within the
grasp of child, there are discussed
he final, fundamental factors the
acceptance or rejection of which will
determine whether our civilization
lives or dies-whether mankind con-
tinues to climb or returns to the
cave and to the jungle.
Every person attending the pro-.
gram is handed printed outline of
the lecture as he arrives. In this
outline are cited many late books
bearing on the subject and with it
are printed number of questions to
be used after the lecture when the
audience is invited to take part in an
open forum and to call for answers
to the printed questions or to any
others pertinent to the subject.
The speaker is Harry Hibschman,
a student of nature,~a lawyer by
training, and a Chautauqua lee
turer by choice and personal dedica-
ton. He has appeared before audi
ences in every State and in many
Canadian provinces. He has con-
tributed articles to the Outlook,
Current History, the Homiletic Re-
view, the Christian Register, and
other periodicals and has been quot
ed at length by the Literary
Digest.
Mr.. Hibschman is outspoken but
not dogmatic, fearless but not
pugnacious.

THIS YEARS RAINS
AID CROPS OF 1927
Losses Due to Iowa Floods Expect
ed to Be More Than Paid
Next Season.

BY the Associated Press.
DIES MONIES, Iowa. November l.
The silver lining of the rain clouds
that poured tons of water over each
Iowa acre during September will be
visible to farmers of the State when
next years crops are harvested.
A few weeks ago flooded streams
and inundated lowlands foretold huge
crop losses. But cheering state
ments from experienced observers
indicate that this years scattered
losses will be Offset by many indirect
benefits through the replenishing of
the water reservoir.
For many years the water reserve
has been depleted Scarcity Of top
soil water has interfered with crop
growth and the gradual lowering Of
the permanent ground water level has
caused shortage of well water.
This years rains came at season
when the crops were dormant. The
water thus penetrated the lower
levels, and also replenished the soH
water supply. 1t is estimated that
only about % per cent Of the precipi-
tation was carried off by the streams
and that the balance has SO saturated
the soil that the benefit will be
marked during the next growing sea-
son. and may be noticeable for the
next three or fo'lr years.
