ALLIES WOULD PUT IRON R N AROUND SOVIETS

Text of Agreement Which is Asked of Nations Surrounding Russia, Published. (By Associated Press) LONDON'. Oct. 17 The text of the

note of the supreme council inviting Germany to participate in the blockade of Russia as published by the Berlin Tageblatt and reprinted by the Daily Herald, shows that Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Holland, Finland, Spain, Switzerland, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Colombia and Venezuela have been invited to initiate measures to prevent their nationals from engaging in any trade whatever with Bolshevik, Russia. The measures are thus enumerated: 'Tirst Refusal of permission to sail to every ship bound for a Russian Bolhevik port and the closing of all ports to ships from Bolshevik ports. "Second Similar regulations to be adopted with regard to all goods destined for Russia by any other route. "3. Passports will be refused to all persons to or from Bolshevik Russia. Isolated exceptions may be made by agreement of the allied and associated powers. "4. Measures will be taken to hinder banks from granting credit to commercial undertakings in Bolshevik Russia. "5. Every government will refuse its nationals any facilities of intercourse with Bolshevik Russia, whether by post or wireless telegraphy." Foch Gives Instructions Marshal Foch added the following instructions: "Inform the German government that the British and French men of war in the Gulf of Finland will continue to blockade Bolshevik ports and detain from the moment they come in Bight ships bound for Bolshevik ports." The preamble to the note declares that the open enmity of the Bolsheviki is directed against all governments and that program of international evolution circulated by them constitute a grave danger to the national security of all the powers. Every increase in the capacity of the Bolsheviki for resistance increases this danger, it is stated, and it would be desirable that all nations wishing peace and the re-establishment of social order should unite together to resist Bolshevik government. For this reason it is further declared, the Allied and Associated government after raising the blockade to Germany, have refused permission to their subjects to resume commercial relations with Bolshevik Russia. The German government is requested to take measures in conformity with those enumerated.

Falls, South Dakota. Edgerton is asked to speak on the township system of school administration. The invitation is from .1. L. McBrian, school extension agent. McBrian says: "Permit me to thank you for your kindness in taking me out to one of your Wayne township district schools recently, Dist. No. 5. We could hardly ask a better school environment than this for our country boys and girls; the lighting of the building, the heating arrangement was perfect; the selection of the pictures that adorned the walls of the school rooms showed excellent taste and judgment on the part of your teachers. "This school that we visited has the most beautiful school grounds of any country school it has been my privilege to visit in all my study of country schools during the last five years, in which time I have visited every state in the Union. Wonderful Trees. "I find a very good cut of the school building in this district in the 27th Annual Announcment of the Public Schools of Wayne County, Indiana, 1915-1916. I would like to have a picture that would give the best view of your grounds. I want those wonderful trees, some of which are centuries old, to show in the picture. So far as these trees are concerned, let the command forever be: "Woodman, spare these trees; Touch not a single boueh." "Your County Superintendent ot Schools, Mr. Charles O. Williams, attended the conference held at Hot Springs, Arkansas, in November, 1.U7, and presided at one of the sessions and took part in our program there, with great credit to himself and with great profit to the conference. "A large number of county superintendents will be present, as well as a large number of school officers. 1 have extended an invitation to your County Superintendent, Mr. Williams. I am sure he has a message worth while for the conference and for the country at large.

Topic: Our Pledge and How To Keep It. Exod. 19:1-8 Some people say they do not like pledges. But what is a pledge but a promise, and who thinks of getting along without promises? Every marriage rests on the most solemn promise. Every check or note i3 a promise. Whenever we employ any one or

: accept employment we make prom-

ses. Every engagement wnetner so

cial or business or religious, is a promise. Life would break down altogether if we tried to get along without pledged obligations. And what is a principle except an ideal to which we pledge ourselves to be true? Honesty, loyalty, patriotism, unselfishness, truth itself these are

. ! great principles which demand our

absolute fidelity. We are pledged to them through thick and thin and forever. The right way to keep any pledge which we make is not to make it unless it is right and then having made it, because it was right, to accept its binding grip upon us and to recognize it as the grip of righteousness. It is right to do right. Nothing else is right. Our duty is done best by being done at once. Delay in doing hard duty makes its doing more difficult. By doing right always right doing becomes a habit and habit is easier than the omission of habit. Also .every duty spreads out more time. It comes on us only moment by moment. Each moment of right duty doing prepares for the next and that for the next until the whole of hard duty has been done.

"Who is the honest man? He that doth still and strongly good ' pursue, To God, his neighbor, and himself most true; Whom neither force more fawning can Unpin, or wrench from giving all their Due .... Who rides his sure and even trot. While the world now rides by, now lags behind ; All being brought into a sum, What place or person calls for, he doth pay Who, when he is to treat With sick folks, women, those whom passions sway, Allows for that, and keeps his constant way; Whom others' faults do not defeat; But though men fail him. yet his part

Utilities Convention Discusses Railroads

Defeat cf Shantung

Amendment is Expected WASHINGTON, Oct. 17. Debate on the Shantung amendment to the peace treaty was resumed in the senate today with leaders hopeful that a gnal vote on i would be had before adjournment. Although contending that the vote would be close, supporters of the proposal generally conceded that it would be defeated. At the outset of the debate Senator Kellogg, Republican, Minnesota, announced his opposition to the amendment, declaring it would be inconsistent for the United -States to presume to dictate in the far east now, alter remaining silent while Germany and other nations had seized territory there in years past.

(By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 17. Discussion of tho merits of government control of railroads, begun yesterday at the afternoon session of the convention of National Association of Rail

way and Utilities Commissioners, was continued today. Division of sentiment as to the future of the railroads has been manifest throughout the meeting and yesterday George C. Wiles, of West Virginia, a member o the association's committee on "Public Ownership and Operation", submitted a statement attacking the annual record of the committee as not being vigorous enough against government ownership. On the other hand, Lawrence B. Fish, of Kentucky, spoke fofr an hour in advocating government control. This morning's session of the convention took the form of a conference on electric railroads &nd on practices in fixing rates. The conference on this subject wa3 postponed from yesterday afternoon. This change in the program moved the final general session up this afternoon.

The Path to Health

For manv thousands of women the Path to Health has certainly been through Lydia H. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. When this great remedy was first introduced, and for many years after, skeptics

frowned upon its curative claims,

but as year after year has rolled by and the little group of women who had been cured by it has since grown into a vast army of hundreds of thousands doubt and skepticism have been swept away as by a mighty tidal wave, until today this purely vegetable medicine is recognized as the greatest remedy for woman's special ills in the world. This is because it is a wonderful tonic and reconstructor which acts directly and favorably upon the feminine organization

and is a specific for that purpose. Women in AH Countries Depend Upon

It has been rumored that certain firms pay money for testimonials tc adverdtise medicine. This practice is unscrupulous. Any endorsements thus obtained are worthless and untrue. The American Drug Co.. Dayton, O , will cheerfully pay $1,000 for proof that they ever paid, or gave any person authority to pay, any money whatsoever to the testifiers whose names have appeared in newspapers and magazines throughout the country for recommending Pepgen. The thousands of people who have given testimonials have done so of their own free wish. A signed statement to this effect covers every testimonial that has been published and is now on file with said company. The most prominent people all over the land, are glad to indorse Pepgen out of gratitude for relief that the tonic gave them and because they believe it their duty to do so. Many have found Pepgen an ideal tonic, tissue builder and strength maker. It reaches all of the common maladies of the day the strength sapping, lethargy creating ailments That "get your nerve" whether you be merchant or artisan, employer or em ploye, man. woman or child. Peruvian Bark, used in the manufac

ture of quinine and of Pepgen, is mn of the greatest stomach and liver medicines ever discovered, especially when it Is prepared by the Pepgen Non-Aico-holic Process. But .Peruvian Bark is not the onl ingredient thus treated to compound Pepgen. There is Gentian Root, which aids and invigorates digestion; Fringe Tree Bark, which exerts an influence upon the liver not found in any other plant. This is valuable where there is yellowishness of the skin and eyes and a sense of uneasiness in the right side; Black Cohosh, widely used because of its effect upon the muscular system, which is the reason it relieves rheumatism, lumbago and gout. Plain tain Leaves, which operate upon the nerves, soothing and quieting them and inducing healthy, refreshing sleep, is one of the most common herbs, it grows in almost everybody's back yard and makes its appearance in tht, early spring. Yet few there are who know its value as a medicine. Many other ingredients are used in making Pepgen and not one of them is of a poisonous nature. Those who wish to know more of Pepgen may do so at Thistlethwaite's Drug store, or any other first-class druggists. Adv.

It You'll build better with I f v Xls I ! ji 'T"ww Mriii! : I Ji Have Lumber Prices Come Down? I m a

Sounds funny doesn't it? But, as a matter of actual fact a? such applies to the farmer, strict analysis of the present situation as compared with five years ago, shows that Lumber prices are down. Troduce on the farm is money. And who is it that will dispute the fact that farm produce has increased in value to nearly lOOTo as compared with the market five years ago. Lumber costs have not increased by anything like such a proportion and therefore, the cost of lumber as applied to farm needs, has actually declined. Good argument isn't it? But this is not all. Necessity for precaution in the matter ot the care of stock, grain and machinery is doubly emphasized as compared with that of five years ago. Machinery costs more. Stock and grain are worth more. The point is that now as never before, the farmer should look well to building and repairs. Winter will soon be here. A good stable, it is said, saves one feeding a day. It is certain that comfort in the cow shed means more milk ; that proper shelter for machinery prevents rot and rust. Common sense, elbow grease and a very little cash right now on the farm means great big dividends. The wise farmer will at once see the wonderful possibilities bound up in these suggestions. An hour or two spent in taking inventory of farm building needs, coupled with a special trip to see us about the material necessary to meet the coming winter demands, will b3 the most profitable by all odds of any like measure of time during the whole year. Buy and haul the material now. In the slack time, hich is coming, do the work yourself. Enjoy the benefits both in money saved and in the satisfaction which always comes through having done the right thing.
