FLOOD SUFFERING.

Information from both public and private sources show that the flood of the Mississippi river and ifs tribu, taries in the South Is the greatest in the history of that fertile valley
 Following the first angry rush of the yellow torrent with its rushing, seething mass of flood water, and the first break of the levees protecting the adjoining lands at Hickman, Ky. each day has brought its additional news of further disaster
 The history of this most recent flood has been the history of the bat. tie of man against the elements. An army of workmen, resembling an army of ants in its activity, has been stretched from the junction of tho Ohio and Mississippi to the delta This army of men, with modern meth. ods and equipment has carried on q valiant fight against the raging tor. rent. fed and increased in volume daily by the thawing streams of the north, and drainage from the frozen hillsides of half continent Despite the best efforts of the river army 1t has been losing fight.
 Break after break has occurred in what was deemed the impregnable levee protection of the rivers banks in the south
 Like flanlSing army has the yellow torrent taken advantage of the slight, est weakening of the artificial banks, and crevasse has been converted into channel miles in width within a few hours by the rushing, washing torrent of water.
 Places Of safety 24 hours ago are now the scene of vast expanses of rapidly flowing water destined for it's great eternity. the sea. New floods have encountered back water from oth9s floods and living creatures have been Compelled to seek places of safety in boats, on hill tops and other places of refuge until succor came.
 Countless thousands of acres have been flooded and thousands of un- fortunate human beings have been rendered homeless by the onward rush of the relentless flood
 Suffering and even death has fol lowed in the wake of the flood wat CTS. Localities more fortunately situated have hastened to the aid oi their stricken brethren with money and provisions and shelter. but the aid thus generously given is but tenn porary. The property loss will amount to millions and it will take years for the stricken section to re gain the loss entailed by the great flood.
 Aid for thousands of the flood sui ferers must be extended over months or until this unfortunate people can Dc rendered self supporting again.
 The government has joined will people in rendering aid to the un fortunates. Great difficulty has beer encountered in getting contributions Of clothing and food to the localities where they are most needed, but These obstacles ate being gradual " overcome
 The 1912 flood of the Mississipp has been a calimity All that can bc done to aid the sufferers will be done but the measure of comfort and cheer to those who have lost home ant loved ones will be small at the best
 Hot Springs is doing her full shar, in aiding these stricken people 4 fund which already amounts to clos, 10 SI.000 has been raised and thi, fund will be used to purchase beddins and clothing and other needed sup plies to be distributed at the scen' of the flood to those in greatest need

GREAT CLAIM MADE

Reginald Williams. six years
old, son of Dr.. and Mrs. Thomss
A. Williams Of Washington, D.
c., measured up to an 11-year-
old child at the brain tests made
at the Hygiene congress by DR..
Mary Campbell, director Of the
Laboratory for Child Study, it
was announced recently.
Noted scientists all over the
world marveled over this Won
derful child. who the father
claims is the product of bananas
and milk since early babyhood.
Young Reginald has never been
fed on any food. In the tests he
stood 100 per cent, both men
tally and physically.
According to DR.. Thomas, who
is himself a specialist in brain
diseases, especially those of the
child, his boy is simply the re
suit of normal application of
eugenic principles.

A CALL TO DEMOCRATS
TO CONE OUT
and VOTE.
Editor Clarion,
Opelousas, La.
Dear Brother Editor.


Dear Brother Editor:
There seems to be no reason
able doubt that Wilson will be
elected on the 9th Of November.
It is not enough that he should
have a majority of the electoral
yote-every good Democrat
wishes him also to be President
by virtue of having a majority,
and not only a plurality, of the
popular vote. The question of
whether he has a majority de-
ponds upon the South. In your
State it is certain that the elecr
toral vote will go for Wilson.
Many Democrats, therefore, IN
those states do not see the need
of going to the polls and voting.
Under this condition, the danger
is that Wilson'S vote will be
small in your State and if small

in your State and other Southern
States, his popular vote will not
be as large as the sentiment in
favor of his election.
As a Southern man, I know
the difficulty of getting out the
full vote in an election when
there is no need for it to secure
the election of our candidates,
but in this campaign you will APP
preciate the Importance of Viii
son having cast for him in the
ballot boxes every vote to which
he is entitled. / am therefore
writing to beg that in every IS
sue Of your paper, from now IN
til the election, you will call upon
your people to come out and vote
for Wilson and Marshall. Fl
this is done in every Southern
State, Wilson and Marshall will
not only have a majority of the
electoral vote but a majority OF
the popular vote. You appre-
ciate the Importance of this. II
he is elected only by a plurality,
the Republican and Roosevelt
parties will say by uniting they
can defeat us next time, where
as, if the Democrats have a ma
jority over both, the opposition
four years hence will find it diff
fcult to give US trouble.
Thanking you for the great
work you have rendered with the
other editors in the campaign,
trusting that this suggestion
will meet your approval and CO
operation, and that we will meet
together in Washington on the
4th Of March to rejoice at the
inauguration of a Democratic
President who shall have re-
ceiyed the full Democratic vote
in your State, | am,
