(Ratablished 1878) Sa THE VANDERBILT The House of Vanderbilt has accumulated much money, much land, and other material evidences of: wealth. ugBut few Vanderbilts acquired any considerable share of the public’s esteem, not since the days when the founder of the family’sfortune delivered his ultimatum that, “The public be damned!” Cornelius Vanderbilt is now fighting “over there” for the people his money making, land grabbing ancestor damned. Just recently has he been promoted to be a brigadier general, a‘ pro- motion well merited and a position this Vander- bilt will fill with glory to himself and honor to his country. This Vanderbilt began his war train- + do sitting in a seat in the senate. business, from which latter he cannot be spared.’ We would not care to put it quite in The Times’ that Mr. Ford’s good judgment of his own quali- fications would lead him to serve. his country where he can do it best—Minneapolis Tribune. HARMONY BETWEEN CITY AND COUNTRY The following significant opinion is expressed by our esteemed contemporary, the Orange Judd Farmer: J “This season is going to be a great. step toward tving together the sentiment and understanding town boys who are at.work in the country this ideas and more sympathetic understanding of farm conditions. f “The war gardens in the city, of which there are in the aggregate many hundreds of acres, will contribute somewhat toward the same end. Chil- dren. who have never been interested in plants before take an active part’ in the cultivation of. of fogd. produced is. small, the sentimental result is considerable. Perhaps after a few years ‘of such work it will not beso difficult to-settle mat- ters of price arbitration between city and coun- try.” We cannot think of a more fortunate ‘portent than this. Nothing could be more costly to this country than a division between town and country. Yet it is undeniable there has often been a. want of mutual sympathy aid understanding which in some cases has been artificially stimulated, but which cannot continue if there is an ‘intelligent’ realization. on both sides of our interdependence} in all things. If one side has been more to blame} than/the other, it is the city.. If one side has ing career “17 years ago with the New York na- tional guard.

FORD AND HIS CONTRACTS: * As a supporter of th. president the New York Times is' not supporting the president in his plan to make Henry Ford a republican senator from the strong republican state of Michigan. It isn’t likely that the republicans .will let the president pick out for them even so estimable a gentleman as Mr. Ford undoubtedly is: They are quite able to do the picking themselves. : But the reason The Times opposes him is war promotion and not politics. Mr. Ford is filling immense contracts for the government. The Times points out. that if he were a senator he would have to cancel alt these contracts and that the government would. lose all the advantage of being able to employ his great plant and his con- given.more than the other, it is the country. The city draws. constantly from the country not only its necessities of life but its recruits of vigorous manhood. Go. to any. gathering of leading men ‘in any part of the nation and you will find: if you inquire that. most: of them: were:from: the farm. It is a commonplace of. our-history, and we de- voutly ‘pray it may-always be‘so. ‘It-is true the culturally, but the balance after-all:is.against us. Chicago especially ought to appreciate the coun- try. She is the capital:of the greatest agricultural region in the world. She draws her lifeblood from the farms of this ‘great region, one of the: most fortunate on the globe. She draws her health: and her. greatness, from this vast midcontinental do- main and its ‘population of free, :intelligent, and aspiring Americans. Chicago ought never to for- get the country. Chicago above’ all other ‘cities should: honor’ the farmer’s calling and‘’giye her influence unswervingly to its support‘and.adva C ‘men. When our politicians ‘fail in this they mi: represent and betray us as well as the country, and we should see that-they understand ‘it! ° © Sometimes there seems to be'an opposition’ of interests. It is a superficial and mistaken opposi- tion. Our interests must always be harmonious at bottom, for we, are essentially interdependent. Agricultural prosperity, the well being, and con- tent of the farmer and his family, are directly our own concern. When shortsighted men insist up- on consumers’ rights and interests as exclusively as they have during recent controversies, such as the milk price discussion, it is for us to realize that there canbe no consumption without pro- duction and that any sound policy must constant- ly found it self on a liberal fostering of productive energy. Within the just. limits which can always be maintained if there is an intelligent and friend- ly relation between town and country, there will be no oppression by the producer: of the consumer, and there. will not. be. unreasonable demands by the consumer upon the producer. better relations. It is better acquaintance. And) it ought to be a fixed and deliberate policy. on both sides to foster this better-acquaintance out: of which will most certainly come harmony and mu- tual help. i It would be a good plan for the proper agencies to establish two great meetings every year, one in Chicago as representative of the cities, and one in some such place as the state fair grounds, where the city and country folks could meet and get ac- quainted. We have long had the state fair, it is true, but there has been. too much inclination in the city to look upon it.as a political rally. --Chi- cago clubs ‘and organizations ought to arrange‘ex- cursions to the state fair and to any. other occa- sions where we can-meet our fellow Illinoisans of the country. ‘At the same time there should.be a regular autumn festival. in Chicago, carefully guarded from any profiteering, with spetial rates all round and a special effort. to bring the country and city together within our. gates for: a: good time: | he ff This is.the year of the centennial of our:state-| hood, a time when niot only the duties ‘of the pres- ent but memories of past trials‘and triumphs em- phasize the ties of our.fellow citizenship. The con- ditions described in the editorials quoted are bring- ing us together. We ought not to let slip the structive genius in the prosecution of the war.

Masic, furnished by local ‘talent, should also be a feature. The meetings may be held in town or, better: still, under a large tent in a convenient grove in the country, where it will be easy to hold orchard or field: demonstrations. The Farmers’ Chautauqua has been proven practical and highly ‘success- ful. In Randolph County, Missouri, a three days’ Chautauqua was held on the grounds of a country church during August. Five hundred dollars was raised -in advance by the selling of tickets, In the mornings the women discussed Home Economics in the tent while the men visited neighboring farms to watch field demonstrations. In the afternoons the men used the tent and all joined in the evening sessions. . In’ Wafren ‘County, Kentucky, four Chautauquas were held in October, each opening Sunday morning and closing Wednesday evening, and these were followed by five one-day Chautauquas. All were held in the center of rural. communities from five to eighteen miles from any town. No charge was made for admission. These Chautauquas resulted in the holding of a monster ‘county convention. of farmers at Bowling Green. in November.

S——— ° HAD ATMOSPHERE OF HOME Ambassador Quick’'to See Attraction “Hostess House” Would Have for - Americans in London. It was an amusing Incident that first made the need of the hostess hotse apparent in London. In 1917 certain American members of a Canadian unit had business with the American ame bassador, but could come to him only on Sunday. Mr. Page. suggested that they come-to tea at his house... Six of them ‘arrived, and Mrs. ‘Page poured tea in the drawing-room, -It was very cheery and cordial, ‘but somehow the business hung over, . They had-to meet another Sunday. , This time there were ten Americans —and the business was not completed. Mr, Page suggested a third Sund: and 20 Americans came ‘to .transact business with him on that day. During thé following week he sug- gestéd' that ‘the ‘Americans in the Canadian unit, who still’ wished to talk to ‘him, should. come fo his house a fourth Sunday and wind -up ‘affairs with him, and on the. fourth Sunday the Page drawing room was packed with soldiers, y The ambassador told his associates about ft, and one of them chaffed an American who:had gone there to tea. “Ambassadors are popular with you Yanks!” he said. “Oh, the ambassador's all right!" congeded the American. “But we didn’t attach much importance to the business: It was Mrs. Page. She served us ‘ten around an honest-to- goodness log fire, with a tea wagon and fixings. It was great!” And there you ,are! - Mindful of those Sundays, Mr. Page realized that with the advent of American forces in England a substitute home for them was an immediate .necessity; so he was the moving spirit in the estab- Ushment by the Y.
