SALAMANCA, N. Y., FRIDAY, JULY 18th, 1919 WAR TIME MATERIAL Tn every country after the war there was that vast accumu lation of w a r material—material for which the Government had but small use and which must be sold as soon as possible. The United States is no exception, and the country's shipping board is now working out the problems incident to the disposal of these vast stores. They must be sold as quickly as possible and yet the business conditions of the country must not be upset by their being dumped on the market. The sales list comprises many things, from complete dock yards and great vessels down to the little odds and ends, *‘To sell in the market and not break^the market\ is the Govern ment's aim. To be sold are marine railways,, housing and transportation materials and plants, allotments of machinery equipment and supplies, including woodworking machinery, machine tools and fixtures, electrical machinery, boilers, forge shot equip ment, cranes—^in fact almost everything and anything. All sales will be arranged by the open bidding plan. The Sales Review ’Board will tabulate the articles and price them. The plants and articles will be widely advertised in the newspapers of the principal cities and circulars will be sent to those con-. cerns which may be interested. It is a huge job—^this getting rid of the war waste and material and it will, of course, be attended by an enormous loss; this despite the high present day prices. Neverless it is not proposed to carry the sale along in any dumping manner. It will be conducted in line with business principals and with as little upset to existing conditions as possible. The oppor tunity will form a wonderful one for many buyers. HAPPY BUT HOT , Everything in this world appears to have twO SidOS tO it. There is no cross without a crown and no advantage without some corresponding disadvantage. One is forcibly- reminded of this these hot days. The weather becomes hot, hotter, hot test, and Mr. Man gleefully discards his clothing. He appears 'one hot morning at his store or desk in crash trousers and minus coat. “Here,\ he proudly announces: “this is the proper Wa yto dress these days; be cool like I am,\ and he surveys his more conservative brother with some pity. Then he reaches jauntily for a cigar. The place of^their usual repose in the vest pocket is gone—^there is no vest pocket there. As the day passes the man with the cool ambitions discovers he has lost much more than the m^ere coat and vest. His watch, his fountain pen, his pencils have all lost their place in company with the match box in his left hand trouser pocket; his note book and papers are wandering about in strange places and there is a generally congested condition of all remaning pockets. Mr. Man soon discovers that though he may have gained some degree of coolness he has lost much else, and not infre quently we have known the cool man driven back to the dis carded coat and vest. Now we understand why women carry those great bags. ANNA HOWARD SHAW The death of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, coming as it^did in the midst of tbe triumph of the great cause for which she fought and to which she devoted so long a period of her remarkable life, has brought a heart throb not only to those to whom she stood for so much, but to the whole of the United States and the world at large. _ , Her passing on at this monentous period in the cause so dear to her may be very well compared to the death of a general on the field of his success; similar to the death of Wolf in the hour qf his victory or Nelson sealing with his life the triumph of Trafalgar. She has gone forward to other spheres of activity away from our ken, but the inspiration of her life and her ex ample remains with us—it is her legacy to us, and we shall treasure it. , Dr. Anna Howard Shaw was born at' Newcastle-on-Tyne, England, some seventyone years ago^ coming early to this country with her parents, where for many years she endured hardships and-‘poverty, but from out of which she arose tri umphant over circumstances of the most discourageing kind to lead forward the great era in the advancement of women. The nation stands with uncovered heads at the passing of this great woman. God send us more of her kind. Professor John Dewey will teach Chinese in-Columbia Sum- |\ mer School this season. “Composition-and oral practice on li topics relating to commercial and everyday life will Jbe in cluded.\ Now wc can imagine under the heading of “ commer cial and everyday life\ the following: “Where’s my wash?\ “Me no gotte.\ “I brought it last Saturday.\ “Me no gottee, you take somewhere else.\ “No, I didn't, you robber.\ (Intruc- tion at this point to student in lookingibland- and saint-like.) “ The student will now conjugate the verb “No gotte.\ “I no gotte, you no gotte, he no gotte, we no gotte, you no gotte, they no gotte,\ and the query will be in order “Who f e ll has gotte?\ ! Olean Has lea Cream Plant Worth $200,000 The Wie'dman Ice Cream Company, Inc., of Olean, are remodeling the portion of the compansr’s building which formerly has been used as an ice cream parlor into offices for the use of the company. The retail busi ness has been carried on by tMs firm for the pdst twelve years. There are not many people in Ole an or vicinity'wbo realized that Ol ean had an ice cream plant which represents an outlay of nearly $200,- 000. Since the company has been in the wholesale busines, its output has increased to such an extent that it has been necesary for the company to devote its entire time to the whole sale business.' The company is distributor for its own product over a radius of approx imately 125 miles in and around Ol ean. Its plant is a model of efficien cy, being equipped with every con ceivable machine for the manufac ture of ice cream and ice. Two automatic freezers are now in operation and another one is about to be installed, which gives 'the plant a capacity of 1500 gallons a day. The business is owned and carried on by William FT Wiedman and his son, Walter G. Wiedman under the name of the Wiedman Ice Cream Company, Inc. ------------ --------------------- 00 — -- ---------------------- Meeting of Allegany County Medical Society A large ai;tenaance“of doctors and nurses of Allegany County was pres ent at the meeting of the Allegany County Medical Society at tfie Fas- sett House in Wellsville. An interesting paper on abdominal diagnosis was read by Dr. William Mormtain of Olean. A T TH E A N D R E W S The feature ut The Andrews to night will be Elaine Hammerstein in one of her latest productions “Her Man,^^ a six reel feature, from the popular novel “The Battle Cry.” This is a production showing the ro mantic* story of a Kentucky vendetta. “The first half reel shows scenes from New York society life, the polo grounds, etc. The balance of the play was photographed in the -Cum- berlands of Kentucky. The grandeur of the mountainous scenery, the fertile valleys, the rock-strewn hills, and the actual Kentucky homesteads and mountaineers cabins are all shown in. this feature. A gently- bred New York society girl gives up her existence as a socisil butterfly, in order to fulfill a promise to her dead grandfather to go dovm to Ken tucky in order to assist his people. When the man she loves is threaten ed with danger, in one moment she casts aside the veneer of generations of civilization, and fights like^ nak ed savage, with the blood-lus^in her eye and her finger on the trigger. . Sunday’s feature will be George Walsh, in his latest play “ Help! Help! Police!” This is a combination of big drama, big comedy and big thrills The story deals with three rival saf ety razor companies. George Walsh falls in love with the daughter of his dad's principal business rival, which act, both fathers consider as a stroke against the grain. George is afforded a great opportunity for display of his athletic prowess. Dip Kill e r i* a C a s e s in OI e a n The City Health department of Olean has released approximately 20 cases of diphtheria in that city. At the present time thirteen houses are under quarantine. In a few of the houses more than one person is a victim of the disease. Mrs. A. C. Stear and daughter Mary of South Main street have re turned from a ten day’s visit in Clearfield and Punxsutawney. It Is U p to America to Justify the Experiment of Marriage by Proxy B y the M A R C H IO N E S S O F T O W N S E N D The aimoniicement that “American soldiers in France are to he per mitted to marry by proxy in states where the law allows such procedure'^ has created a boom in the American marriage market ;^nd a very good thing, too. I* am inteiested ta see the result of marriage by proxy. Curiously enough, Australia would have none of it. In fact, the mere suggestion of such a law was literally howled down in Australia. Though f object to the proposal on principle it has its* good points. Bearing a man's name, for instance, often protects a woman from atten tions from other men. Then marriage in these mad days is an anchor which keeps many a weak human hark off the quicksands, and gives a girl a better social standing than a ,long-drawn-out engagement. And marriage by proxy would he a financial benefit in many cases. It would give a man an opportuniiy to help' financially the woman he loves, or endow her with his world's goods without Mrs. Grundy turning up her nose. \ Buf I think marriage by proxy a dangerous innovation, and not at all likely to cure the unrest on the part of separated lovers, nor will it revive “waning affections.\* Human nature and modern conditions are against it. ^ Both men and women find separation a strain. Faithful in thought, they miss the com panionship which is natural. Some day the loneliness becomes uiibear- able, and there’s the rub. However, it is up^to America to justify this bold experiment, as she has justified many another. '■* * L j - - - r I efficiency I IN THE= •Face always tells, and when the marine companies put on great and fast greyhounds like the Lusitania and ^ her |our- funneled sisters, up leaps the passag;^ price. ^ The tendency today is to lay down moderate sized and tonnaged boats of some 20,000 tons, and to eliminate the great craft which cut off an hour or so on the trips. The new ships wiU be both passenger and cargo craft, and it is probable that for some years no more Britannias or Monerics will be built. * Ninety-one million, three hundred and sixty-four thousand pennies were coined in the United States mints in June, in ad- ' dition to six million odd nickles and a few hundred thousand ’ I dimes.
