Chicago is now’ keeping up with the fest of the 1 world by having some fancy bank 1 flurries. Thanks to the Reynolds, ’ Dawes and other sound thinkers, the matter is being straightened 1 out in the very best manner. * It is claimed that President Hoov- ' er is saving the country $25,000,000 8 a year by his week-end conferences 1 with heads of departments. Now 8 if the governors, mayors, commiss- 1 loner's and others will start a camp ’ some where with corresponding re- 2 sttlW, all be well. Tge recent showers were appre- 8 ciatfd ndi only by the farmers and 8 gardeners but likewise by the fisher- 1 men. Up to last week the lakes r were so low that the boys couldn’t ' get the boats out of the sheds but 1 now the lakes have risen so that 1 in most cases no detour is neces- 1 sary. c i When some smooth guy conies c along trying to sell you stock, just 1 remind him that the monied men a of the country offered to take six ' billion dollars w rth of U. S. bonds * ands- if the securities being offered 1 are. any good they can be sold to 1 those fellows who know what has 1 value and what has net. 1 ... ■ ‘ The corn is growing and so are all the other crops in this section 1 ami-indications for an old fashion- j ed harvest are excellent. And that’s 1 sonjfthing for it means we will be I able to get some cash through the | middle west, even if prices are not I what we would like them. ( T-he Junior Band gave the first concert of the season last evening and. from the remarks heard from the members of the large audience, thej. pleased every one. Its a great organization, not the least of which greatness is the fact that they are all youngsters from the scheols of the city and the foundatbHi for musical organizations in the.year* to come. ■ The treasury department at Washington offered $800,000,000 of bonds and when the applications were figured up, the amount was over subscribed seven times. The motxy is still in the country it seems and if the smart men will figure out a plan to start it circulating, the depression will dissolve lika snow in the sunshine. Tjjere is nothing vicious about the efforts being made by local workmen to secure employment on the new "federal building and there have bqpn no threats. The men are simply standing for the rights suppoiK-d to have been given them by the national government when the "contract was made. Our labor-

ers in every line are as fine citizens as can be found any where and are capable in their lines of endeavor. The money should be spent here and thats the only thing at issue. The supreme court has refused the writ of prohibition on the injunction suit filed to prevent publication of house bill No. 6, which means that publication of the acts will he delayed indefinitely. It begins to look as though it would be necessary to publish the rest of the acts and let the courts decide the validity of No. 6 or else call a special session of the legislature for the purpose of legalizing the acts. The mix up undoubtedly was caused by the rush of the last night when thirty-six bills were hurried j through the legislature. According to Justin H. Moor© of New York who addressed the Indiana bankers yesterday, curative measures for the depression have been well developed. He did not make it very clear but indicated that the cure would be a correction of the inflation which followed the war and to some betterments in farming conditions. We hope the developments have reached the age where they can be turned loose and that the results will be happy and I speedy. Its so easy to put cut ' high sounding phrases but we need something more definite than that now. Let’s have some actual show- ' ings that wc are around the corner and we will all be pleased. Don’t take things too seriously . and remember that the fellow who I smiles is the one who eventually licks the game of life for he gets - more happiness out of it. Money is a handy thing to have around but it comes a long ways from be- - ing every thing. You h-ave heard the story of the old king who became ill ami his physicians determined that the only thing that would cure him was to find a man actually happy and take his shirt with the assurance that wearing that one I week would cure the king. They , finally located the man, a woodsman who sang all day long as he I chopped, but when they asked for his shirt he replied. “Glady would 1 give it to you if I had one but I , own no shirt.” 1 < _____ o r ——l ANSWERS TO TEST QUESTIONS Below are the answers to the test questions printed on page two i i ♦ —. 4 1.

Isn't this true, but just j ! how much of these tough breaks l 'does the farmer bring upon himself? About the worse thing the farmer; can do, if he cares anything about j prosperity, is come to the city and i work. He Is robbing his own pocketbook. Does he sell and then buy back ' his own products? Not often. Then ' who does he expect to buy the products he sells? The city folks of course. Now then, how can the city folks buy if they have no money? Explain that Mr. Farmer,' if you can. You come to the city, rob the laboring man of his job, which cuts off his buying power, i then grumble about the low price on your farm products. Every thing drops, including farm products, I when the laboring man is out of: I work. Now then, Mr. Farmer, why don’t j you stay at your trade on the farm? i You can never hold twx> jobs down . and last king. Looks like you would

find that out pretty soon. If you don’t then I don’t know what will happen to you. You farmers can make times better for yourself and families if you stay on your side of the fence. City men are begging for work I and all they get is (no help today] or we’re all filled up), but along] comes a couple farm men and i fhey’re put to work. Can you beat i that? Is it any wonder so many! people are on the county? Why is it Mr. Factory owner, you'll turn down the city man and , hire the farmer? Is it because he’ll work for a song and sing it himself? You should employ only city man and not outsiders, especially at times like the one we’re in now. The farmer gets his living at cost and every cent he makes is clear profit to him when he works in the city. Yet this same farmer will grumble because eggs are only thirteen cents. What else can he expect when he cuts off the city man’s purchasing power. The sooner he opens his eyes the sooner he’ll be back on a paying basis.

For the sake of yourself and other folks, awaken Mr. Farmer and stay on the farm and let the city man have his job. A. Pursuer. o Shell-shocked Woman Wins Compensation Tamaqua. Pa.. June ... — (lI.RU — Mrs. Mary Allison. Tamaqua, was granted compensation for total dis

ability due to "shell shock" such as many veterans of the World War suffered. Although Mrs. Allison was never nearer the battlefront than her front porch here, she had a legitimate basis for the "shell shock” claim in the nervous condition which developed following an explosion of dynamite caps at the Atlas Powder Company plant here in 1927 during her employment there.
