THE JEFFEF .aN, TOWSON, MARYLAND. December 11, 1920—Page 3 THE Commerce Truck ranks first as the greatest value of its class-units, materials, workmanship, dependability, performance, equipment, price. Back of it are nine years of specialized effort in building one standard type of truck chassis. Pneumatic cord tires are standard equipment on the Commerce chassis, There is a type of body that will fit your requirements. Let Us Help You So he Your Transportation Problems THE COMMERCE MOTOR CAR CO. DETROIT Ninth Year Mfgrs. of Motor Tracks r - *$* Juppe To Editor of The Jeffersonian:— I understand there has been about $13,000 raised to erect a monument in Towson as a memorial for our gallant Baltimore county boys who lost their lives in the service of their country during the recent World War. How much better it would be for this slum of money to be used as a nucleus toward the erection of a Memorial Hall in Towson, which could be maintained as a public building for the use and service of the people of Baltimore county? There is no place at the county seat for the holding of public meetings^ other than the Court House, which is not always available and sometimes1 not suitable for such purposes. I think a sufficient sum of money could be raised by public subscription to pay for such a building. A suitable public building would be of service to this and future gener-atons and would typify in the highest sense the supreme sacrifice arjd service which our brave boys made for freedom and democracy. Is it too late to start a movement to divert the fund already raised? Let us have expression on this subject. ERNEST C. HATCH, Dec. 9, 1920. Towson, Md. Sixty-Sixth Congress Enters Last Session Tuesday, December 7th. On - ^ Brockway Motor Truck Co. j 1006 North Eutaw Street BALTIMORE, MD. SOLD EVERYWHERE FOUND TO BE BEST (Continued from Page 1) Many notable figures in both branches of Congress: will start out on the final lap of their legislative course Tuesday. A few have retired voluntarily, but the great majority met defeat either in the primaries or the general election. In consequence, the Republicans have topheavy organizations in both Senate and House, majorities really larger than the leaders want or need. In the House the outstanding defeated veteran is former Speaker Champ Clark, of Missouri, who will retire after 26 years in the House, eight of which saw him as presiding officer. Among other leaders who will re-tir? at the close of the present session are Representatives Moon and Sime, of Tennessee, each with 24 years of sei-\ice; John H. Small, of North Caic-lina, with 11 years to his credit, and who was defeated in the primaries; Coidell Hull, o^ Tennessee, autho" of the original Income Tax lav/, with seven terms behind him; Isaac R. Sherwood, of Ohio, only surviving Union general in Congress; Henry T. Rainey, veteran member of the Ways and Means Committee and for years the lieutenant of Claude Kitchin in tariff fights, and Representative Randall, of California, the lone Prohibition party member. Altogether there are about 100 men who will make their exit next March. In the Senate the changes are naturally fewer, but that body also loses several of its outstanding figures. Among them are Hoke Smith, of Georgia, one time member of President Cleveland's Cabinet; Thomas, of Colorado; Phelan, of California, one of the wealthier members of the upper body; Kirby, of Arkansas; Gore, of Oklahoma; Gronna, of North Dakota; Chamberlain, of Oregon; Beckham, of Kentucky; Henderson, of Nevada; Smith, of Maryland, and Nugent, of Idaho. -----------.».----------_ Swinging Backward. .IN BOTTLES BOTTLED BY The Baltimore Coca-Cola Bottling Co. 408-10-12 N.

He should not forget that one of the big inducements held out by the city to the farm laborer is the fact that the city affords modern homes with heat, light and running water. Even though these conveniences must be paid for, they offer an attraction which has probably been equally responsible with higher wages for taking labor away from the farm. The situation of he past few years should be a pretty forceful argument for the farmer in regard to the treatment of his labor. It is a noteworthy fact that on many farms where living conditional had been made attractive for the tenants, there has been no complaint of labor shortage even during the past acute situation. The farmer who is wise and who would escape another labor shortage will try to arrange his work so that he can offer steady, reliable hands year-round employment and furnish them attractive living conditions. It goes without saying- that farm labor as well as other labor must become more efficient and that the farmer cannot continue to pay war wages with present prices of farm products.

(Continued from Page 1) cent, in excess of the 10-year average. The situation also has pointed out the value of modern farm machinery which has been forced on many farmers who otherwise'might have delayed in its introduction. More important, however, it has brought to the attention of the farmer the desirability of improving the conditions of the average farm laborer. This means better living conditons: It is doubtful if the farmer ever will be able to compete with the city employer in mere cash remuneration. The cash returns from farming will not permit the payment of excessively high wages. On the other hand, the farmer can and does offer his labor many things which are beyond the power of the city employer to include in his inducements to labor. In the case of an unmarried farm hand, the farmer can offer free quarters and free board. In the case of the tenant farm hand, ho can offer free house rent, free fuel- and a garden space which will provide a fair Sjhare of the laborer's living, j oilmprit*? Consequently the money remuneration ' offered by the farmer is practically clear and is frequently more than the city laborer has left at the end of the month when his bills for living- expenses have been paid. Alabama Lady Was Sick For Three Years, Suffering Pain, Nervous and Depressed—Read Her Own Story of Recovery. Paint Rock, Ala.—Mrs. C. M. StegalL. of near here, recently related the fol« lowing interesting account of her recovery: "I was in a weakened condition. I was sick three years in bed, Buffering a great deal of pain, weak, nervous, depressed. I was so weak, I couldn't walk across the floor; just had to lay and my little ones do the work. I was almost dead. I tried every thing I heard of, and a number of doctors. Still J didn't get any relief. I couldn't eat, and slept poorly. I believe if I hadn't heard of and taken Cardui I would have died. I bought six bottles, after a neighbor told me what it did for her. "I began to eat and sleep, began to gain my strength and am now well and strong. I haven't had any trouble since ... I sure can testify to the good that Cardui did me. I don't think there is a better tonic made and I believe it saved my life."
