Editor THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13. 1917 THE ARISTOCRATIC POTATO. How dear tu my heart are the dreams of my childhood When fend recollection presents them to view; The ax and the nawbuck, the great cord of piled wood I looked at with horror—that 1 roust saw through. The jam jars, the apples, the shellbarks, the bacon That hung in the cellar in slabs long and thin— What wonderful dream* at this time they awaken; The old fall potatoes we dumped in the bin. The The The I much sought potato, ten cent potato, high-priced potato always call Sir.

We con tend that every community ill the United .States would do well to have such a vigilance committee, and one not afraid to bring disloyal ones before the courts and appear against them. It is time that a disloyal utterance be the signal for immediate arrest, and vve are pleased that a movement is on foot to have laws passed by congress that will provide for this very thing. There are a few—a very few, we are pleased to say—in this community who will do well to bear this fact in mind and to remember that they have already said things that may bring them under such laws.
