SUPREME COURT
WILL. NOW DECIDE II

The Adamson Eight. hour Law
has been delared unconstitu ton
al by Judge William c. Hook Of
United States Court at Kansas
City. This does not mean that
the eight hour law will not &c
into effect. In fact this was moi
the real legal battle to decide
the case. Both the attorneys
for the government and those
for the big railroads regard this
decision merely as a method to
reach the Supreme Court of the
United States with the case. 1t
is expected that the ultimate
decision of the Supreme Court
in regard to the law will be
handed down between now and
Jan. 1st the time set for il to 90
into effect.

More turkeys have been shipp'

announced that a car of turkeys
would be shipped from this place

from. But they came, or rather
this enterprising firm went out
and got them. and decidedly
more than a car went out from
this point on last Saturday. Mr..

Reads About Clovis.

One day the past week the
secretary of the Chamber of
Commerce recei we'd a letter from
q man in Kentucky wanting in
formation about the Clovis coun.
try. He quoted a paragraph he
had read in the Louisville Cour.
ier Journal about the town OF
Clovis. This item was taken
from the "Clovis in a Nutshell
leaflets that have been sent out.
and this reminds US that every
letter mailed out from Clovis
should carry with It a leaflet or
an insert giving some definite
and reliable information about
the country.
