THE UNIVERSAZL CAR g 8 ‘ fi? % . e ———————————————————————————————————® % o ‘ : . The Ford Sedan with electric starting and lighting system and demountable rims with 314-inch tires all around, is the ideal family car because of its all-around utility and refined and comfortable equipment. Finely upholstered. Plate glass windows. An open car ~in the spring, summer, and early fall. A closed car in inclement weather and winter. For theatre parties, for social visiting, for touring, and for taking the children to school, it is just what you want. The low cost of operation and maintenance is not the least of its charms.

HARRISON Editor Puablished every Monday and Thursday and entered in the Postoffice at Ligonler, Ind., as second class matter. : 'Ware White Grubs, Severe Injury from white grubs is to besexpected this season throughout northern Indiana. A Every three years these region are ‘visited with outbreaks of this pest, because of the fact that it takes three years for the insects to pass through ‘their complete life cycle. They will occur especially in fields that were in grass last year, and for this reason neither corn nor potatoes should be planted on such land, because these crops will almost surely be severely ins jJured if this be done. Ground that was in pure clover or even in corn last year is likely to be quite safe for planting to corn this year. because the beetlies which are the parents of the white grubs do not usually lay their eggs in such crops.

Washington.—President Harding has given his hearty endorsement to the appeal being made by Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood on behalf of the Near East Rellef, 1 Madison Avenue, New York City, for a nation-wide Lenten Sacrifice Offering to save the starving Christians of the Near East. ~ The President’s letter reads: “There ought to be no cessation or relaxation of éur sympathetic American efforts to be of service to these stricken people. One can well believe that they will not survive if we withdraw the relief which has heretofore been so generous from the private American purse.

TOLSTOY IRKED BY IDLENESS
Letter Written by Russian Philos _opher Condemns Life Led by indolent Men of Means
The Vossische Zeltung prints the following letter by Tolstoy, written in 1884, with the remark that it has never before been published except in Russian, and that ity value lies in the fact that as early as 1584 Tolstoy had about made up his mind to do what he did In 1910-—leave home and live the life of a peasant. The letter reads s part: 5. T - ™I am living in the country, involuntarily according to & new method. I £0 to bed early, get up eariy, write very littie but work a great deal, either making boots or mowing hay. I see with Joy (or possibly it only secema to me like joy) that there is some thing up In my family. They do not condemn me; as & matter of fact, they seem ashamed of themselves. “What miserable creatures we are and how we bave gll gone astray. There .are a great many of us here, my own children and the children of Kusminsky, and nobody does a thing but gulp down food. They are all big and strong, yet they do nothing. People In the: village are at work., My children eat and make their clothes and thelr rooms dirty and that 1s all Everything 1s done for them by somebody else, yet they do nothihg for anybody., And worst of all, they seem to feel that it is as it should be. But I have had my own part in bullding op such a system, and I ean never forget it. I feel that for them I am a trouble-fete. But it Is clear that they are beginning to see that this canoot g 0 on this way forever.” - =
