"THREE WEEKS. A HIT.

Judging from the immense crowd at
the oliver theater yesterday. both
matinee and night. Three Weeks"
Will draw the record business of the
stock season. The Oliver players de-
serve much credit for the excellent
production Of this well known play
which follows closely on the lines of
the book by the same name which
brought ElenOr Glyn into public favor.
Her remarkable story of the Queen
OF Sardelia stirred the readers by its
powerful moral lesson The play is
most interesting throughout and in
the course of the four acts all the ro-

PROTECTION AGAINST MOTHS.
Camphor, Tar Paper and Other Pre-
ventatiVes Useless When Eggs
Are Present.

Washington, D. C.-The various
substances used to keep away moths.
such as tobacco, camphor, naphtaIene
cones or balls. tarred paper, and ce
dar chips have no effect if the eggs
are already in the clothes, and ento-
mology specialists in the United
States department of agriculture
therefore recommend thorough
beating, shaking, and brushing of all
articles likely to attract moths, be-
fore they are laid away for. the sum-
mer. The brushing of garments is es-
pecially important in order to remove
eggs which may have escaped notice
If. the articles are quite free from eggs
or larvae when laid away, the odor
from the various repellents already
mentioned or from cedar chests and
wardrobes will serve to keep the
moths away. This odor, however,
lessons with age, so that the protec-
ton it affords is greatly decreased af-
a few years. For this reason when
furs and other valuable garments are
wrapped in tarred paper or. placed in
sacks of tarred paper these contain
ers should be renewed every year or
two

ly by the choir. 1t was never intend
ed that QUO songs of the sanctuary
should be delegated to chosen few,
but rather under the direction of q
capable leader, the people should fol-
low the choir in a service of song.
Vocal music is indispensable to any
form of worship, and is second to the
word itself in the evangelism of the
world.
What would Moody have accomplish
ed without Sankey, Jones without Elk
cell, TORY without Alexander, or Sid
Williams without his Brown. If i'm
portant in our Christian work and
worship, why don't the churches man
ifest more interest in vocal training
and encourage schools for that pur-
pose? It is our purpose to steer away
from fogyism, but it seems to US that
a few classes organized with an in
structor qualified to teach them how
to read and sing music with a few all
day singings to follow, would do more
to arouse public interest in sacred
song than anything we know OF at
present

standing;" "let everything that hath

WHOSE FAULT?

The government bulletin on the
needs of rural women says, among
other things, Farms on which the
most advanced machinery can be
found in successful operation are ut
terly lacking in household conven-
fences and comforts. Men who have
been taught that it is good business to-
invest in labor-saving devices for the
field and stable decline to regard SINH
lar devices indoors as anything but
a useless waste of money" We often
wonder how much of this is true, and
to what extent the men are at fault
because labor-saving devices are tut
terly lacking" in farm homes. Vol
umes of stories have been written
about the mean cuss who provides for
himself all sorts of labor-savers and
denies them to his wife. We have
printed few such tales ourselves in
the. hope of touching some stony
heart with the sorrows of the wife or
with the reformation of the husband,
without which such fiction is incorn-
p1ete. But candor compels the state
ment that not often in real life have
we met the curmudgeon who treats
his wife that way. 1t is our heretical
belief that most of the responsibility
for the lack of laborsavers in the
home rests on the women themselves.
This is contrary to the ideas of the
Department of Agriculture, of the
story-writers and perhaps of the wo-
men too But isn't it true ?-Exchange

BOB REYNOLDS IS INDICATED.

Waynesville, May 9.-The famous
suit of Miss L. K Cameron, lessee of
the Suyeta Park hotel, against Robert
R. Reyonlds for a balance alleged to
be due the hotel as result of enter
tanning delegates during the demo-
cratic congressional convention last
May was reported Upon by Referee
George Inward in Haywood Superior
court this week. The report of the
referee shows that Mr.. Reynolds is in
debted to the plaintiff in an amount
less than he offered to- pay, and is a
complete vindication of the position
taken by the aspirant for congress last
summer.
The Original complaint filed by At
torneys Hannah and Leatherwood for
the plaintiff alleged the amount due
by Mr.. Reynolds to be 1921. This was
later amended and made $610. Mr..
Reynolds rendered certified check for
$3.50 as payment for the balance due,
though claiming at the time that the
amount was too much.
The report of Referee Ward is vo-
luminous. 1t rehearses the hearing
that consumed several weeks last fall
and gives the full findings of fact and
law in the matter. 1t is found that
the amount due by Mr.. Reynolds is
$4,000.
Attorneys for the plaintiff are ex-
pected to except to the report, and
the matter may go to the Supreme
court

There is no doubt that old John Bar

world In this country, as recently
asserted, nine States Shave adopted
Statewide prohibition in the past five
and a half months, and the indications
are at least eleven more will take the.
same step within the next twenty
months. King George of England has
lust barred intoxicating drinks from
every one of his houses in the empire
and general prohibition seems near
possibility throughout Great Britain
In a recent speech Cancellor Lloyd
George said: Drink is doing more
damage to this country than all the
German submarines put together
He also quoted the Russian Minister
Of Finance as declaring short tine
ago that the output of Russian work
en- had increased from thirty to fifty
rer cent since the sale of vodka had
been prohibited, and as further say
ing. s'If the Government proposed to
revert to the old condition, there
would be a revolution in Russia"
France has this year abolished the use

the news comes that strict order
with the severest penalties has gone
forth direct from the Kaiser that on
