Review of Business Conditions
and Annual Report on Crops

George M. Reynolds, president OF
the Continental and Commercial Ma
tional Bank of Chicago, has just sent
to the correspondents of that bank the
18th annual report on crops and re-
view of business conditions, issued by
that financial concern, which, with its
affiliated institutions has resources
amounting to $2S5, 700. From this
report some very significant facts are
CLEANED.
Mr. Reynolds says in the prepare
ton and analysis of the information
obtained from every section of the
nation and from every branch of
trade, he has been impressed with al
most universal optimism expressed in
the replies received. Continuing, he
states that sit has been several years
since men in practically every section
of the country have been so nearly of
one opinion on the splendid promise
of the crops and not since 1907 have
the leaders in all lines of endeavor
been so imbued with confidence in
the immediate future of business"
"A volume of agricultural products
20 per cent larger than last year, will
return to the farming community the
most profitable results of a decade.
The industries of the country have
been feeling the stimulus of the pros
perity of the tiller of the soil and the
ample supply of the needs of the PEG.
pie. The only prosperity is that
which comes from the agricultural
production, and that is assured" is

 tainment.

OH rTlOay evening l6SL AC CnS Public School Auditorium, en- tertainment number four or the final concert of the Brinkley Chautauqua Club Course was given, and it has been pronounced by all who attended as the finest of the entire serles given.
 The evenings program was given by Miss Lois Lynn, reader, of Hazen; Miss Laura McMullen, violinist, of Cotton Plant; Miss Fife Dunlap, vocalist, of this city; and surely three more talented and promising young artists could not be found in Ark ansas.
 Miss Lynn. the reader, is 8 graduate of Galloway College, and without a doubt her talent as a dialect reader and humofist is remarkable. She was enjoyed in every number, and when she ccmes to Brinkley again will be anxiously heard by many.
 Miss Laura McMullen, the tal- ented violinist, a graduate of Ouachita College, has been heard in Brinkley on several occasions during the past several years. Her appearance this time gave greatest pleasure and satisfac- tion, for her many friends and admirers were even more charmed by her splendid rendi- tions.
 The vocal selections of Miss Fife Dunlap. the young Brinkley lady who recently graduated at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music with high honors. well displayed the remarkable talent of this promising artist. Es- .pecially fine was the selection "Only Thee. l" Miss Dunlap sing ing and playing her own accom- paniment. It will be remem- bered that Miss Dunlap won the scholarship at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music by her splendid work at Galloway Col lege, and then finished at Cin- cinnati in one year the work pre- scribe1 in the two year course.
 These three artists were at their best on Friday night and it is no wonder that this, the last of the Chautauqua Club Course entertainments was the best of the entire series, and those who missed the entertainment, missed one of the very finest, most cul- tured and enjoyable entertain ment ever in the city.
