Girls in the more or less classic

after. Folk Gancing has been added to
the gymnastic repertoire of the Young

An Introduction of the strenuous
dances Of old Europe into the courses of
training for American youth has ac-

Big Banks Want

Shaw then entered upon a technical
and academic analysis of the manner in
which bank notes and other species of

vide for the reYerting of the title
to the land back to the original own
er after the removed of the soil re-
qnired for their purpose.
The camp maintained by the
Walsh Construction Company is sit
uated at d point between Mound
City and Cache river and employs.
in addition to local negro laborers,
number of "Hunyaks."
The soil being used in the work
by this firm is secured from what is
known locally as Hogan's Field. .
piece of land owned by the Hogan
estate, situated at a point near the
above described location of the
camp.
The problem of securing labor for
this character of work is at times
difficult of solution and the ingenu-
ity of the employers is severely tax
ed to maintain the required number
of men for each succeeding task.
The pay given the men is said to
slightly in exces of that commonly
paid to ordinary railroad laborers
and the board furnished is such as
to induce the men to stay after they
have tested it.
A very remarkable feature in con-
neetion with the local financial end
of the levee construction is herewith
presented.
With the money market that is
tight over the country---strained to
the limit, the great financial centers
of the United States declining TO
purchase municipal or county bonds
only at a great sacrifice, and L. s.
Government 2's selling at 95Ia the
bonds of the City of Cairo amount
ing to 100000 and $I3S,000 of the
bond issue of the Drainage District,
were purchased by the three finan-
cial institutions of Cairo, the four
and one-half per cent twenty year
bonds of the City Of Cairo selling at
oar while the six per cent Drainage
District bonds sold at 95, five per
cent more than was offered in the
foreign market.
A Cook county recent per cent
bond issue of ls1,5O0,0O0 sold at
.971a while the following from the
Memphis Commercial Appeal of
Friday relative to the sale of an Ar
kansas State bond issue of $1,000
900 for the construction of levees in
the st. Francis Basin is still stronger
evidence of the great financial re-
sources of the three Cairo banks.
The St. Francis Basin is facing a
crisis so far as its protection from
the foods of next spring is concern
ed. 1t seems that il cannot secure suf
icient capital to finance the plans to
build adequate levees. Ii is true
that the government has undertaken
the task Of closing the gaps left by
the 1913 flood, but with an other
food of equal proportions there is
nothing to prevent the levees from
giving away at some other place.
THE St. Francis leYee has at pres
ent only 60 per cent of the strength
which the engineers have recon-
mended. The board of directors
has made an effort to build the levee
up to the required strength and have
gained the consent of the Legisla-
ture to issue s1,500,000 worth of
bonds. Owing to the condition,
however of the money market so
far it has been impossible to dispose
The Cairo bulletin., 1913-08-03

of the bonds. although the time dnr-
ing which the weather is favorable
to levee building is fast slipping
away.
20. n. Killongh, president of the
board of directors, has just return
ed from a trip lasting about ten days
in ST. Louis and Chicago. where he
has seen the most prominent bank
ers in an attempt to float the bond
issue. but il seems that the finan-
cial institutions of those cities arc
little interested in whether or not
the St. Francis Basin is overlooked
and he gained little encouragement
from those sources.

problem which remains as yet
unanswered is the probable effect
upon the unprotected districts be-
low of the annually increasing miles
Of water walls. 1t would seem like
ly that the combining of the water to
a greatly reduced area would create

destructive to the lands open to iti

has been found willing to go on rec
ord with an opinion on the subject.
The terrible flood catastrophies

history of the country have unqucs-
