' 1 MRUS HEIR ABOUT THE FARM Club to Hold an Outing in June; i to Elect Convention Delegates | Rotarians, guests and ladies, last ' ! night were the guests of John K.! Young, general agent of the Interna- J tional Harvester Company, and after a | short, but notable business session, en joyed a buffet luncheon and heard a i lecture, illustrated with slides and mo i tlon pictures, by Ralph Bradford, from tiie general offices of the company, in | Chicago. They numbered 176. The lec- I ture portrayed the great advance in harvesting methods that have taken place in recent years, notably since the invention of the harvester, which has made possible the opening of the vast fields of the West. iiere are some high spots in Mr. Bradford's lecture: Every morning the world wakes up hungry. The history of the world is tho record of man's struggle for food. The ancients died like flies as the re sult of famine. The ancients sought empire, fame and genius, but failed to realize the simple truth that the basis of civiliza tion Is bread. They lived on poorer rations than the average tramp who calls at our kitchen doors. They were poor farmers, bound to the soil by the land tools of slaves. A few centuries ago it required five days ot drudgery to raise a bushel of wheat, to-day It takes only ten min utes labor to produce the same results. At the beginning of the nineteenth century nine-tenths of the people were still on the farm. To-day two-thirds of theso poople arc doing other useful work--transporting and manufacturing' the comforts.of life The moit important business in the world is farming. .EvfO' sunset sees the wide and fer tile fields of America bring forth har vests worth $24,000,01)0.

The stranger said he was the < Rev. David J. Frum, of Pleasant < Gap, Pa. "I was requested to bring this gen- i tleman here by a young woman who ; Is employed at a Market street store,' | said Patrolman Carson. "She is on her way here to make a complaint. I • know nothing about the case." Accompanied by two friends, a few i minutes later Miss Ruth Crawford, of West Fairview, walked into the office i of Clarence E.

"I do not want to make anyone trouble and was advised to come hero by my friends," spoke up Miss Craw ford. "The gentleman called at the store yesterday and patting me on the hand offered me financial aid, at the same time requesting me to name a place where J could meet him pri vately. He said he was a Methodist minister and I thought it strange. He asked me other questions as to where I could meet him lh the evening. I told him I was not meeting strangers and he left the store. "I told my mother of the occurrence and she said T had done right, but should not make any trouble. This morning the same gentleman came into the store and said some things to other girls. I was advised by friends to make a complaint to the police and I did so when I saw him on the streets." "The girl tells the truth about my offer." spoke up the Rev. Mr. Frum, "but I had no evil Intentions, and she has grossly misunderstood me. 1 was in search of collars for mv wife, who ! Is now waiting for me at the Penn sylvania Railroad station, as we -In tended to take the 11.35 train foi 1 home. A part of my duties is to look :up worthy working girls and offer them a chance for an education at Allegheny College, having at my dis posal funds to pay for such education, and I did say I could benefit her finan cially." "Do you want to press the charges?" Secretary Backenstoss. "No, I have no charge to make," said Miss Crawford. "You can go," said Secretary Back enstoss to the minister. He went.
