lS.-Professor Richard Garner has
emerged from the African forests
after a continuous period of seven
years devoted to the study OF the
monkey language. The Rev. John
ston Myers of the Emmanuel Baptist
Church of Chicago met him and
gives the following account:
81 was standing on the deck OF
the Antique, as we were lying of
Cape Lopez yesterday. watched
the sturdy man come aboard carry
ing chlmpanzee and learned he
was Professor Garner.
Professor Garner is a man about
60 years old, and when | saw him
was dressed In khaki garments, a
helmet and top boots. lie had the
appearance of an African hunter.
Whatever his peculiar views may be,
he is kindly, courteous gentleman
in manner.
Discards the Cage.
On previous period of study
and exploration he had built for
himself cage, in order to facili-
tate closer fellowship with the ami
mails. In this last period OF SER
vice, however, he did not use the
cage, but studied alone in the forest.
Professor Garner told me he was
born In Virginia and that his wife
was living In Kentucky during his
absence from home. s..rr.. n.

business from Tennessee for nearly
forty years. And now, after we
have won the fight, it seems to me
that it would be supremest folly
and unmeasured calamity to undo
the work of these years and restore
the liquor traffic to its former legal
status in this State. 1t would
mean that we would have to go
back and do all our work over again
and keep che question disturbing
factor in the politics of the State
for years to come. We want to
feel that the question is settled
and "out of politics" in this State,
and prohibition and home protec-
tion the settled policy of our people.
To restore the traffic to the cities
would be but an entering wedge to
it's restoration in all parts of the
State. The next step would be to
restore it to the larger towns, and
then the smaller. For there is not
an argument in favor of restoring
it to the cities from which it was
banished in 1909 that would not
apply in favor of restoring the
the business in all other parts of
the State.
So ten thousand Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union women,
the organized motherhood of Ten
nessee, plead with the voters of
this State to stand by these laws
and send no man to the General
Assembly in this State who is in
favor of theirrepeal. Other thous-
ands in other States are watching
the course of events in Tennessee,
and praying that you will stand
true to the right in this great
struggle, and hold on to the fruits
of our victory.
We believe you are going to do
it, and that the General Assembly
in 1911 will stand staunch and true
in favor of our laws.

KEEP YOUR r1ONEY AT HOrIE

Now that the fall and winter
season is upon us, we want to urge
the buying public to spend their
money at home. This is subject
of vital Importance to every Cam
den merchant and to every person
dependent upon local enterprise
and home progress for a livelyhood.
Right now the mails are loaded
and the magazines and pamphlets
are filled with gaudy ADVERTISE
ments of "mail-order houses
concerns located hundreds and
even thousands of miles from Cam
den. These concerns beg you to
"send for illustrated and descrip-
tive catalogues" and offer to pre-
pay all mail and express charges on
whatever you order from them.
Don't do it! Just stop moment
and think-reason for yourself.
The dollars you send to these
mail-order concerns never return
to Camden-to Benton County
to your employer-to you! They're
gone forever!
Another thing
In ninety-nine cases out of a
hundred, the very article you Sc
lect from the "mail order house,
can be bought right here at home
for the same or less money!
Hundreds and hundreds of dol
lars leave Benton County every
year-never to return! This is the
main reason money is scarce in our
county-and has been so for years.
It isn't fair or just to your home
merchants and your neighbors.
Show your patriotism by keeping
your money at home--where it
rightfully belongs! And try to
pursuade your neighbor to do the
same.

AN APPEAL
!Aade to the Voters of the State
of Tennessee.
LSllena M. Holman.l


{an election will be held which will
decide the fate of our prohibitory
laws. l am writing this to urge
the voters of Tennessee to stand
by this law, and elect only those
men to the General Assembly who
willgo there pledged to vote against
any effort to secure the repeal of
4, hese laws, or any part of them.
For, as all know, most determined
effort is being made to elect Cen
oral Assembly in favor of their re-
peal, at least of such part of them
as relates to our cities.
They tell us of the utter impos-
sibility of enforcing the laws in
the cities, and point to the lawless
condition now existing there, as
reason why these laws should be
repealed, and license substituted,
under which the liquor traffic may
be Controlled"
But we should remember that no
effort, whatever, has been made in
these cities to to secure the enforce
ment of these laws on the part of
those in power, whose duty it is to
enforce them. But on the contrary
every possible effort has been made
to render them ineffective, in the
hope of bringing adiscredit on the
laws and SO melingit the easier to
secure their repeal.
We believe that spirit of COM
mon fairness demands that as these
laws are or the statute books, they
should not be repealed until at
least some effort had been made to
enforce them. And we believe
that when men in favor of the laws
and their enforcement are elected
to our higher Offices, 90 per cent Of
the difficulty of enforcing them
will vanish.
The trend of the times is toward
the abolition of the liquor traffic
in the State and in the nation.
County by county, the liquor traf-
fic is being driven from most of
the States of ftheunion. Nine States
have outlawed the business alto
gether, Tennessee being one of the
number. Tennessee has never tax
en- a backward step since the pas
sage of the four-mile law in 1877.
L beg of the voters of Tennessee to
see to it that so far as their vote
and influence 60, Tennessee shall
take no backward step when the
General Assembly meets in 1911.
believe that an overwhelming
majority of the people of Tennes-
see are in favor of the complete
abolition of the liquor traffic in the
State, and only if the voters allow
other issues to cloud this one, will
it be possible to secure the repeal
of any part of our laws.
Mr.. Gilmore, a liquor man, and
president of the "Model License
League" in an article in Bonfort's
Wine and Spirit Circular, written
since the August election in Ten
nessee, takes the same position as
to the strength of the prohibition
sentiment in Tennessee. He says:
"The big majority in the recent
Tennessee election, given to the
Republican independently and
against the regular Democratic
nominees, was an echo to the State
wide prohibition fight, and the
killing of Carmack; and whether
we like it or not, it must be ac-
cepted as a further protest of the
people of Tennessee against the
liqquor traffic, as the people of
Tennessee know, or think they
know. that traffic"

field in all branches of mission work.
This organization still is effective at
the University of Missouri, it's men,
bersh:p now being seven.
The smallness of this number is
due to the leaving school of several
former members, some of whom have
gone to other schools and others to
foreign countries. Last year there
were fifteen in the band. These men,
bers gave 1855 to missions during the
year.

GIRL GIVES BONDS

Spokane, Wash.-When Miss Mar
garet Perkins went to work as tele-
phone operator in a local hotel today
the management required her to give
bond not to marry within six
months. This instrument duly sign
ed and sealed, holds Miss Perkins
bondsmen liable to the extent Of $500
in the event she becomes a bride on
or before June 81, 1911. The sure
ties are prominent business men.
The reason for this unusual require

a half dozen telephone operators have

last two being Miss Florence Joyce,
who recently married a rancher, and

MANY MILLIONS IN

Eighty million dollars worth OF
lead and silver has been taken from

east of here, since the beginning OF
systematic development work. accord
ing to Stanley A. Eaton, manager or
the Bunker Hill and. Sullivan mine.
who made the statement in Spokane.
The gross output Of the district. from
1888 to date, is estimated at more
than 1910, 100000. with net profits OF
between $4,000. 900 and $4z.000,ooo.
The district ranks first in the United
States in the output Of lead, the Mis-
souri-Kansas belt being second. Utah
third and Colorado fourth.
1.-THE only discouraging feature OF
the mining situation at present Is the
depression Of the lead market" Mr..
Eaton said. land this is due solely to
the uncertainty about the tariff.Much
of the lead now being produced In the
United States is mined at a small
profit. This is especially true OF the
Missouri mines. 1t is out Of the ques-
ton for American lead mines to COM

FIRST REPORT OF
NEW INSTITUTION
SCHOOL FOR FEEBLE
MINDED MAKES GOOD
Superintendent III. T.. Bickers and
Physician show Excellent Condition
Health of Inmates Especially
Good,

In his first biennial report to the |
governor and the legislature to have
been filed since the institution has
been established. superintendent II.
E. Bickers of the stae institute for
the feeble-minded, gives a flattering
account of the success of the institu-
ton and its corps of officers and at
tendants, in the conduct of the school
and the vast benefits derived by the
patients from the course of treatment
and education prescribed. The heal
thy condition of the school and its
inmates during the two-year period
is also set forth by the attending ply
sician, DIR. w. Carlton Smith. which
is highly satisfactory and encourag
ing to all concerned.
In his editorial setting forth the
conditions of the institution for the
past two years or eighteen months,
Superintendent Bickers points out
that the appropriation set aside for the
be- Eft of the school by the legisla-
tre of 1909 was inadequate for the
needs of the institution and that there
was a deficiency of approximately
14,400, and he recommends that an
appropriation be made by the ap-
preaching session of the legislature to
meet this deficiency, and that an al
| ditional appropriation be made to
provide for additional buildings and
| equipfent to meet the growing de-
mands of the institution for the ensu-
| ing two years,
The superintendent says in part:
THE first feeble minded persons
to enter the institution were received
on December l, 1908, on which date
there were transferred from the asy-
lum 80 adults and children; we have
since received from that Institution
80 and from other sources 102.
1--WE now have a waiting list of 25
with applications coming in at the
rate OF about 10 per month.
1.-The general health Of the institu-
| ton at the present time is good.
Since the opening of the institution
We have had several cases of diph-
! liberia which developed among the
| inmates a short time after their trans
/ fer from the asylum, the source
! from which it undoubtedly emanated
Under strict quarantine and proper
| treatment the cases were confined TO
three or four of the children. We
| have had no recurrence of the dis
| ease. We also had five cases of small
pox introduced from some outside
source. These cases were properl!
quarantined and successfully treated
A few other cases of epidemic dis
eases have occurred, but none serious
I'VE have grouped the inmates
strictly on the cottage plan, as orig
inally designed in planning the insti
| tuition. Those Of nearly the same de-
gree of intelligence are assigned OF
grouped in families of from 20 to 2;
| and are isolated as far as possible
from children of different grades
Those unable to care for themselve!
and requiring constant care and over
sight are placed in the custodial di'
! vision, and those that are capable o.
being instructed are assigned to the
school and Industrial classes.
THE accompanying report of ply
slcian and principal are comprehen'
sive and should receive careful atten
] tion."
