Societies Of Lehiyh Valley Held Here Last Sunday
High Mass Celebrated by Rev. Greifen-
berg Attended by 250 Delegates;
Next Session at Bethlehem
SCHOOL DIRECTORS CONVENE IN ST. JOHN'S REFORMED
The quarterly convention of ilii? Leliigli Viilley Federation oE Catholic Societies, comprising about 3000 members from the different towns of the Lehigh Valley from Easton to East Mauch Chunk, was held last Sunday at the Holy Family Catholic church.
About 250 delegates attended the sessions, a great many of whom ar¬ rived in time for the inorning servi¬ ces. Tho delegates marched to the church in a body, where high mass was celebrated by the rector. Rev. B. Greifenberg, who also preached a Btrong sermon. After services tha visitors were served with a fine lunch¬ eon by the ladles of the parish, which was enjoyed by all. The arrange¬ ments which had been made by the lo¬ cal committee for the reception of the delegates were carried out In an efficient manner and, though handi¬ capped by limited space, were a credit to the committee.
After dinner the visitors repaired to the playground, back of the church, and viewed a snappy drill by the cadets, commanded by Messrs. L. Mllkovlts and S. Keppl.
Separate sessions for the men and women delegates were then held at 1 o'clock, in which routine business was transacted and several important matters for the good ot the federa¬ tion were discussed. Short addresses were made by Rev. J. Saas. of Slat- intton, by the rector of the local church, by Leroy Smith, of Allen¬ town, executive secretary ot the Le¬ high County Division ot the Associa¬ tion Against t.lie Prohibition Amend- meiu. by G. Ortwein, Bethlehem; A. Miller, Allentown. and Miss M. Tun- ner. Bethlehem.
The  delegates  went   on  record   as opiiosed  'to  recent   signs  ot   bigotry! and prejudice against certain citizens | throughout the country and declared,!
Ill,It the Catholic church is not, as is sometimes asserted, eiilier through ignorance or dellbertate intent to misrepresent, an enemy nf the public school, that the parochial school is simply founded on tho principles which the Catholic church deems ne- '-essary in her system ot education, nnd which prin('ipl';s are admitted to he sound by all who believe in Chris¬ tianity, and about which arise oniy differences of opinion when there is (|uestion of the application of these principles: that Catholics pay their share ot taxes toward the support of the public schools, besides maintain¬ ing their own. and relieving to a great extent the burden of tax-pay¬ ers; that Catholics are as loyal to the I'nited States as other citizens, which was amply proved by their war rec¬ ord.
The attendance at the mass meet- li.g at 3 o'clock taxed the capacity of the church hall, and many fine ad¬ dresses were made. The meeting opened with prayer, and several se¬ lections were rendered by the men's singing society under the leadership ot the rector.
The welcome address was made by ,r. Traupmann. Nazareth, in an able manner. Everitt Kent, of Bangor candidate for the T". S. House of Rep resentatives. was then presented to the assembly, and he held his audi once spellbound in his speech on the history of the early Oerman settlers and their valuable service rendered in helping preserve the I'nion. and their sound ideas in the slave ques¬ tion. He also spoke at length on the Constitution of the United States, and the liberties under the Constitution to all, regardless of creed, color or race. He also expressed his views on over-centralization of government, and urged his hearers to go to the (Continued on Page Four.)

Onu-tliird of the corn stalks in the average Held of corn shows decided infection of root-rot, a fusarium wilt, seriously cutting the normal yields of corn in -Northampton county, says County Agent C. W. Klapp. The dis¬ ease is nothing new but seems to be on the increase year after year. The only control measure is the selection of seed in tlie field from stalks that are healthy. Six field demonstra¬ tions '.vere conducted this week and two more will be conducted today.
Farmers have always been particu¬ lar as to the character and general appearance of the ears of corn se¬ lected from the crib. It seemed that i: never occHrre<l to them that the stalk that grew the ear to be used for seed needs very careful considera¬ tion.
Among the many factors brought out by -Mr, Klapp there are three out¬ standing points to be applied to ov ery stalk from which Ihe ear is tak¬ en, namely, health, competition and type.
The health of a stalk is best indi¬ cated by the fact that the leaves and stem are green while the husk cover¬ ing the ear is dry and shows matur¬ ity. .\ healthy stalk matures the ear before it dies.
Stalks standing very much alone are to be avoided no matter how good the ear. We believe that desirable ears from stalks with no competition developet because ot a more favora¬ ble environment rather than because of inherent productive qualltleE.
Furthermore, the stalk from which we desire to select Is ot medium height with the ear located below the middle half and with relative sliort nodes. For each joint on the stalk there develops a leaf. The yield of corn on healthy plants will be in pro¬ portion to the square feet ot leaf area on that plant. Thus it is important that the stalk is leafy in proportion to its size.
¦We believe and past expcrionres bear proof, that the yield in North¬ ampton county of shelled corn per acre can be increased 20 per cent in one year. Select yonr seed corn from the stalks now.

Taxes upon Imports may be divid¬ ed Into two general classes—taxes on those imports the like of which can be and are produced In this country. The United States has always gone upon the theory that the proper Im¬ port tax Is that levied on products the like of which are produced In this courtry. By auch Import tax, or tariff, protection Is afforded home producta and those working men who are employed In auch Industries. Other countries have adopted the other theory,—that of levying a tax upon Imports the like of which are not produced at home.
A great deal Is being said about the new tariff taxing the working man's breakfast table. The break- faat table Is not taxed In a country which has protectlre tariffs. Break-, faat tables are taxed In thoae coun-j
