Jordan is coming to the Chautauquas to talk about "The Old Homestead.” ’*Dr. Jordan is an evangelist-who knows how to put over (►splendid message, but he comes to the Chautauqua not so much because of„his achievement as an evangelist but because of an unusual achieve­ ment as a ’farmer. Inheriting a run­ down farm in Pennsylvania, he so re­ juvenated it that last year five thou­ sand proud Pennsylvanians made a pilgrimage to the farm for purposes ot observation and study. Agricul­ turists from all over the State made the journey and the Instructors pf leading agricultural schools were among those who came to pay honor 10 the hustling farmer evangelist.

"Let me cite an instance ■of what it caused .in the little town of New- Madison. One boy of a fam­ ily of moderate circumstances was al­ ready in the service and another boy of the family had been rejected be­ cause of some disease of the heart, A rumor that the second boy was a ‘slacker’ passed from lip to lip, from back fence to back fence; friends of the family became estranged from them and it finally reached the boy’s cars. He went to his board attd begr god them to jmss him so tha t he could go to camp. They did and he went. That boy came home three days later in a box. And that life went oUt just because some inconse­ quential person started a groundless rumor. I happen to know this, as I was present at-the time the body was returned home. So much for that. Not two and a half miles away there lives a rich farmer. He has 250 acres in tobacco, 160 on one side of the road and 00 on the other. When Red Cross workers approached him for a contribution during the last campaign he contributed ONLY ONE DOLLAR. And yet nobody in that vicinity called him a slacker. The boy was forced to death by that un­ warranted epithet, and yet nothing was said about the farmer,”—Times Star, TOWNSHIP HAS NOT YET REACHED \V. S. S.

LICENSE NECESSARY FOR DEALERS IN EGGS The government has issued an or- ■ter that any person ior merchant who sells eggs or poultry any other way than a t retail to consumers, re ­ gardless of the amount of business done must take out a license.. T l ^ affects country store keepers who buy from farmers and sell any surplus to wholesalers or hucksters. It no doubt applies as well to hucksters. According to Chairman Andrew Jackson, representing this township, we have so fa r only taken about $19,* 000 worth of War, Savings Stamps, our quota being $60,000. Reports are coming each day that will increase this amount considerably, ORGANIZE SATURDAY NIGHT. WHEAT PRICES MAY NOT BE WHAT FARMERS EXPECT j . There is eveny indication now that farmers will not receive more- than $2 a bushel for their wheat and it may be as low as $1.97, The Senate refused to vote Monday so tha t the price could be $2.50 a t sea port. It is $2.20 now as we understand it. The increase in freight rate the first of the month means that wheat prices here cannot exceed $2 a bushel unless Congress gives authority for the in- icrease. , DEFERRED MEN GATHER FOR ADDRESS IN XENIA The draftees, who have been ex­ empted for one purpose or another in this township, will organize Sat­ urday night for the War Savings Stamp campaign, which these young men have pledged themselves to sup­ port.
