DANGEROUS BUSINESS —One-night-this_week several young men of Arcade are alleged to _ have' -''borrowed , -l_an„automqbile from a garage to have a- v, joy.ride. Said ride led to Buffalo. Onwie return trip the auto tried to bump a truck off the road, and came to grief. The young men are said to have walked to Arcade. The matter is said to have been settled by the parents paying for, the destroyed car. Of course that settled the matter. But under different circumstances this \borrowing\ might have-led to prison for the law does'-hot call it borrow ing,- and. prescribes a severe penalty for the offense. We trust this'will be a real lesson' to those young men. These- things are usually conceived .with only good intentions, but many times end in disaster. Let'.s say \Never Again, BROKE HIS ARM. Bobbie Marshall,. of. Eagle, , te n years old, .fell from the doorstep, Saturday, and broke his arm. Dr. Alan Vaughan of Arcade was .called and set the broken-bone. Wednes day. Mr. J. M.

The Committee appointed\ at the last meeting of the Mens Club, to in-~ vestigate and devise some plans to relieve the existing house shortage in Arcade, have been giving the matter serious consideration and have several plans under advisement' but have reached no definite conclu-. sions as to the best method for bet tering conditions. There are several places in the village that are for SALE and which the Committee think may be pur? chased at reasonable prices. Further, the Committee is in a position to as sure parties who may consider the PURCHASE of a home'that o n pay ment of approximately one-third of the price, either for a house already built or for one t o be built- on order, arrangements may be made for two- thirds of the purchase price to re main on mortgage at- 6* per cent in terest. It is quite possible that-there may be those who would 'wish to con sider a plan of this kind and in, such event they will do well 'to \confer with Mr. J. H. Smith, C:' C. McKer row or L. A. Mason. It is hoped that more definite plans and suggestions may be made within the next week or two. One' thing is certain: If anyone contemplates any building this Fall, ,it should not' be delayed much longer. MR. AND MRS. J . T. GUNN T , GIVEN PLEASANT SURPRISE Mr. and Mrs. J. T.

FIVE INDICTMENTS BY GRAND JURY Theodore Strauch and Stella Strauch of Bennington, indicted on the charge of receiving stolen prop erty, and William Slonka of Benning ton for resisting a n officer, plead not guilty before the- Court in War saw this week. - Three other sealed indictments were handed down by the Grand Jury. NOCAUSE OF ACTION The suit of John W. aaskell~Sf Sandusky against-Leo-Gonroyof-Ar- cade and Anthony Kessler of Spring- ville and others, tried in •'Little Val ley last week, resulted in a verdict of no cause of action. The jury wa s out five hours. ' The ' plaintiff • sued for $2,000 for alleged injuries sus tained in a collision of automobiles near Sardinia. ATTENDED MASONIC CONVENTION Mr. W. S. Davis took an auto load of brother Masons to the district con vention a t Warsaw. Tuesday. In the party were L. E. Runals, N. R. Pinney, Herman Alderman and Mack Sampson. For the eighth consecutive month since January 1 members of the Dairymen's League Cooperative As sociation, Inc., will receive a price for milk higher than that of any corresponding month in the organiza tion's history. Th e August net pool price as announced a t the New York- headquarters of the League this week is $2.42 per'100 pounds of 3.5 omilk. This is the base price for the 200-210 , mile. zone. . League farmers comparing- this with'the average August pool prices since the pool was first organized in 1921 find that it is 24c higher than the average price for this period. Reports accompanying the an nouncement of the August pool price to members also show that the vol ume of ,milt handled during the month exceeded that of August 1926 • by approximately 10,000,000 pounds.,- the largest percentage of increase showing in the 191 plants owned arid operated by the members themselves. The repbrt also shows an increase of more than 2000 participating mem bers in the pool\'over' August a year ago. Gross sales'for July were $7>- 226,181.77. 1027 pool prices tdgether with the recent raise in selling prices negotiat- . ed by the Association have had an encouraging effect on League farm ers evervwhere throughout the New York Milk Shed. The successful Lefforts of the organization to induce p the New York City Health Depart ment to wait another year before taking any steps to extend the milk • zone of New York City has had a stimulating effect on milk produc tion. The League's campaign to bring about such an increase in order to save the New York City market : for the eastern dairymen promises I to bring real- results and benefits to • the entire industry. In view of these ' things the present situation of the dairy industry- in this part of- the country is more hopeful than it has been for 1 a long time.
