Summer Flavor
For Winter Apples
A CRISP, juicy apple with a sub-acid
flavor, not mealy, is a delight to every
lover of fruit.
Growing highly flavored apples requires a
combination of the proper kind of soil
coupled with hard and persistent labor
throughout the entire year.
Our Staymen Winesap Apples were grown on
stony, flinty soil. Minute attention was paid to
the trees from the time they were planted. At
frequent intervals the trees were sprayed. Small
limbs were removed from the tree to admit sun
light and air.
Immediately upon removal from the trees the
. apples were placed in storage at 34 degrees. This
temperature arrests the ripening processes, but
does not injure the fruit.
Staymen Winesap Apples are sold by first
class grocers.

U. S. Loses 69 Ships
in Year by U-Boats;
Gains 107 by Seizure
j Xew York, Jan. 30. —In the twelve
| months of unrestricted warfare
| launched against American and al
lied shipping by Germany one year
ago Friday, there have been sunk by
submarines, mines and raiders sixty
nine American vessels, totaling
171,061 groes tons, according to a
careful compilation of records of
sinkings which have been made
public during the period.
Offsetting this loss of American
vessels, most of which were sailing
ships, the United States since Feb
ruary 1 has added to her merchant
marine by the seizure of former
German and Austrian owned ships,
a total of 107 vessels having a gross
tonage of 686,494 leaving on the
credit side of the American ledger
in the account with the Central
Powers a net gain of 515,433 gross
tons. The loss of life caused by the
sinking of the sixty-nine American
ships was more than 300 persons,
however.
The percentage of sinkings of
American ships compared with the
number of vessels which have sailed
through the war zone successfully
is small. Records of the Depart
ment of Commerce show that for the
period beginning with February 1,
1917, and ending with December 1.
there were cleared from American
ports In the foreign trade ships ag
gregating 17,738,900 tons net, or
approximately 24,834,460 gross tons.
The number of ships making up the
total of tons was not made public

Emperor William Favors
Peace by Agreement
By Associated Press
ltotterdani, Jan. 30. Emperor
William is in sympathy with the
movement for peace by agreement,
according to Professor Hans Del
bmeck, of the University of Berlin, us
quoted in an interview with the
Nieuwe Rotterdamsohe Courtant's
Berlin correspondent.
Professor Delbrucck, who himself
is a peace by agreement advocate, said
the warring nations were now divided
into two camps, the llrst comprising
those who, Like Premier Lloyd
George, in England, and Admiral Von
Tirpitz, in Germany, wanted a fight
to a finish, and the second consisting
of those who. like Emperor William,
(he German Government, the lieich
stag majority and the great majority
of the people were working for a ne
gotiated peace.
Professor Delbrueck pointed to the
furious attacks by the pan-Germans
upon the Emperor—something hither
to unheard of in Germany—as suffici
ent proof of the Emperor's sympathy
with a peace by agreement.

Rev. D. E. Rupley Accepts
North Philadelphia Call
Announcement of the Rev. D. E.
Rupley, for seven years pastor of
Salem Lutheran Church in Oberlin,
that he had accepted a call to Bethel
Lutheran Church, North Philadel
phia. .has caused a stir in his con
gregation. Mr. Rupley made known
his intention at last Sunday's morn
ing service, and since then he has
been strongly urged to change his
decision. In an interview to-day Mr.
Rupley emphasized that it is with
the greatest regret he is leaving
Oberlin, but that he feels that ho
must respond to the call from Phil
adelphia, where he has pledged him
self to be present by March 15.
Mr. Rupley came to Oberlin seven
years ago and immediately began a
vigorous campaign to build a new
church and increase the member
ship. He succeeded so well that In
stead of the old wooden structure
the Salem members now worship in
a line $20,000 church, and the con
gregation has been more than dou
bled. The relations between pastor
and members were of the warmest
and Mr. Rupley's departure is count
ed a distinct loss not only to the
church but the community of Ober
lin.
A surprise party was given Mrs.
William Masimer at her home Sat
