Nicholson, In an article written for the American Friend under the title of "Extending Our Frontier." Nicholson writes that as before with other calls the Friends will answer that which Is now issuing from Central and Eastern Europe because of malnutrition and disease. He describes France as the "fountain-head" of the broadenlng-out work of the Friends
denomination, and said that from it have branched out relief and recon- j struction organizations that are con-1 tinuing the work started in the French republic. . "Persons prominent in official cir-l cles have said that the greatest need in the central eastern countries is to know that 'someone knows and cares', ard the task of helping create this spirit seems the greatest opportunity which has challenged Friends." He added tha. a better understanding between nations is perhaps the one greatest thing needed in the world today.

Enlistments For Service In France To Close July 5 Wayne county young men's last chance to enlist In the army for service in France will end at midnight July 5, according to a telegram received Saturday by Army Recruiter Wright from Major T. F. Ryan, of Indianapolis, head of the Indiana recruiting district. The urgent need of men for the army has decreased with the signing of the treaty by Germany. The situation in Europe has so greatly improved that the war department has decided to close all enlistments for service in France in July. Wright announced that any men wishing to take advantage of the opportunity offered by the army to see France must do so
within the next few days. This order, Ryan's telegram stated
implicitly, does not revoke any order relative to enlisting for service in Panama, Alaska, China, Honolulu or Phillipines. Enlistments for service in
these countiese will continue. Men are still wanted for air service and can be sent to almost any part of this country for training that the enlisted man may choose, Wright said.

Here's Hope-Bottom Drops
Out Of Potato Price
The bottom has dropped out of the
price of old potatoes, and new pota
toes are going down in price, accord
ing to announcement made Saturday by local retail merchants. Old potatoes declined in price from $2 a bushel to $1.35 and are expected to drop more next week. This decline was made because there is a large supply of old potatoes on the market, due to the fact that growers held up their potatoes this year for higher prices which did not come because of the early arrival of stocks from Texas and the south. New potatoes are selling at 60 cents a peck and will lower the first of next week. Already a decline in the price of new potatoes has been noticed on the larger markets, which will effect the prices quoted here not later than next week.
