FORMER CITIZEN RETURNS

Elder J. w. Pruitt. missionary for the Church of God, has bought farm from c, c. liar mon, about 9 miles northeast of Ozark. where he with his family will make his home in the future. Elder Pruitt came from San Antonio, Texas, and comes high ly recommended as a good citizen both from his former home and by the church which he repres- ents, and bids fair to make many friends in onr community, and we extend to him a hearty vel come. Elder Fruits father lived in this county 35 years ago for four years, and built the first steam gin and mill in Frank lin county, one mile south of Webb City, where Mir. Pruitt went to school four seasons. and was all the education he receiv- ed until he was grown.
 Elder Fruit states that it is a great pleasure to meet up with some of his old school mates and talk of boyhood days.
 When all was fair and bright, When scarce fear and not a tear
 Had e'er cast his day or night.
 The church he represents are Sabatarians, that is, they ob- serve the seventh day, the fourth commandment of the Decalog. He has few mem- bers of his faith here who are very respectable citizens, and he hopes to build up a large con- gregation here soon.

MARKET TOPPERS

It is the aim of every live stock farmer to have the buyer say to them, The top O the market to you" Experienced feeders achieve it, but rarely beginners.
 Pig-club members have topped the market on the first hogs they have raised. These mem- bers followed the instructions given them by the pig club agent stationed in their state. They fed balanced rations, kept hogs free from lice and worms, and made their hog feeding a business enterprise, and not a venture.
 In Oklahoma 23 boys and l girl sold their pigs to the two Oklahoma City packing houses at top prices, going B cents above the top of the market for the day. These hogs averaged 10 months of age and 344 pounds in weight. Eleven of them were judged as perfect market type by the buyers, and only one scored below so. The aver age dress out was S4 per cent unchilled.
 The champion hog from King fisher county weighed 44O pounds on the hoof and dressed S7 per cent unchilled. This H. months-old barrow was on alfal- ia pasture the first four months of his life, and then was fed tankage, corn, kitchen wastes, shorts, and alfalfa the next ' months. He cost 6 cents per pound to produce, including purchase price, feed, and labor. and gave the boy a profit of $S. 90 in addition to the prizes won.
 In Kentucky l5 pig-club boys, with hogs averaging little over POO pounds, topped the Louisville market for the day by 25 cents a hundred weight.

THE L. A. C. PLEASES

The L. A. c. Orchestra of the Lyceum Arts Conservatory of Chicago, gave a concert at the Opera house in this city Satur- day evening. The big audience expressed appreciation from start to finish.
 When the curtain rose there was before the audience a group of eight happy, good looking, well dressed young women, and after a very modest introduction the music began with a march by Verdi, and glided almost without pause into overtures, solos, duets of popular selections that suited every taste.
 The first violinist rendered a a solo which brought enthusias- tic applause, but was no more appreciated than the solo, The Last Rose of Summer, on the trombone, Miss Palmer was the artist with this beautiful instru- ment and responded cheerfully to the hearty applause given her. The reading entitled Miracle Mary" by Miss Truitt, was we'll rendered, and to the continued applause she responded with a little selection about The Spooks Down in Georgia. " The young sters will never forget this spookie piece, nor will the tall girl forget the other little sketch,
 "Stoop to Kiss" Miss Truitt knew all about drums and about a dozen kinds of whistles and the art of using them. She had a whole collection of things and there was music in every piece. The audience never knew when they got in the barn yard until the cockrel was growing and the sound of old "Pide's" bell could be heard while the flute, cello, piano, clarinet, cornet. trom- bone were gong it on the finest music. The quartet sang Kip ling's Lest We Forget" in a simple and appealing way, betok- ening their ability as singers. Of course Dixie" called forth the most applause. The closing mum Der American Patrol, ;" Hats Off to the Flag, ended one of the most enjoyable concerts ever given in Ozark.
 The L. A. C. party were en- thuslaStlc Tn their praise of Ozark. Said they had never been treated better any where. From here they sent to their parents and friends remem- brances of mistletoe. They said they would never forget Ozark.

Every Day Counts Now!
DO YOU REALIZE how near the spring rush
is-the spring demand for automobiles9
AND THAT THERE WON'T BE-can't be-
enough Reos to 60 'round2
you RECALL OF COURSE that never since
the FIRST REQ was made and sold has It been
possible for us to make enough cars to supply
all who wanted Reos-never time.
AND DO YOU KNOW that the demand for
REQ Skies threatens to be hopelessly in excess
Of the possible supply2
WHY, WE STARTED APRIL with more orders
for immediate delivery than ever were on hand
ct any previous time in the history of REQ.
SIMPLY WONDERFUL popularity Of the
New REQ Ski
AND NO WONDER when you consider the
matchless value buyers obtain in this Six
this great, big, beautiful 7-passenger Six ct
$l2sOl
IT ISN'T THE PRICE ALoNE-though, who
could have hoped a year or two ago. ever
to obtain such a magnificent equipage for 50
cheap for skimpy hve-passenger car.
NOT ALONE THAT FOR $3.50 you can buy
this beautiful Six, but the fact that its opera.
ton and maintenance cost have also proved
to be so low as to be well within your reach.
IF YOU COULD AFFORD to own and to drive
hve-passenger car then-say of Ito inch
wheelbase- you can better afford to own this
126 inch, As horse power REQ Six now-for the
cost Of upkeep is less-almost unbelievably
less.
DO YOU KNOW our dealers tell US that many
families who really need seven-passenger car
hesitate because they think they could not
afford such great big" automobiIe2
AND YET THOSE same families are driving
now, five passenger cars that cost vastly more
per mile to drive and more per year to main
tain.
YOU SEE FEW realize what tremendous strides
have been r.ade in the direction Of low main
tenance c. Il. Few appreciate the gasoene
economy and above all the stability Of cars
made nowadays.
THEY STILL HAVE IN MIND those former
days and those former cars that only a mil.
lionaire could afford to own.
WHY WE REQ FOLK NEVER WOULD have
built this Six but for the fact that we knew it
would be within the means of tens of thousands
who formerly paid similar price for a smaller
car-and paid ten times more for operation
and maintenance
IF YOU WERE TO ASK US what has been the
greatest accomplishment of automobile manu-.
facturers in recent years, we'd say, the placing
of such a luxurious equipage as this in the
hands OF the million at price formerly paid
for two-cylinder cars and of such quality that
those same users can better afford to own it.
CONSIDER THIS: the annual deterioration of
this REQ Six has proved to be less than 1921
Hundreds of buyers tell us they have paid not
one cent for repairs since owning their car.
And our records show that the average cost of
replacement parts is less than six dollars per
car per year.
80 IF THAT'S ALL that makes you hesitate
to place your order, you need hesitate no
longer.

can hope to obtain Rec Skies for spring
delivery.

Germany Denies That Sussex
Was Sunk by Submarine; Other

BERLIN, April IL, via London, APP
ril 1S,-The following is the text Of
the German note on the Sussex, dat
ed April 10:
The undersigned has the honor to
inform your excellency, Ambassador
Gerard, in response to communica-
tions of the 2sth and SOth ult and the
srd inst. regarding the steamers Sus-
sex, Manchester Engineer, English
man. Berwindale and Eagle Point that
the mentioned cases, in accordance
without notes of the SOth and slst ult
and the 4th and 5th inst have been
subject to careful investigation by
the admiralty staff of the navy, which
has led to the following results;
Berwlndale Takes Flight.
"First-The English steamer Ber-
windale. A steamer which was
possibly the Berwindale was encoun-
tered ON the evening of March 16 in
sight of Bull Rock light, on the Irish
coast, by a German submarine The
steamer, as soon as she noticed the
submarine, which was running un-
submerged turned and steamed
away She was ordered to halt by a
warning shot. She paid no attention
however, to this warning, but extin-
guished all lights and attempted to
| escape.
The vessel was then fired on until

entered the boats and received enough
time to row away. the ship was sunk.
Name Not Established.
The name of this steamer was not
| established; it cannot be stated with
assurance. even with the help of the
details which were furnished by the
American embassy that the above-de-
scribed incident concerns the steamer
| Berfindale. Since, however, the
stamer sunk was tank steamer like
the Berwindale, the identity of the
ship may be assumed In this case
however the statement made that the
Berwindale was torpedoed without
warning would conflict with the facts

black craft without a flag, having q

clusion that it was a war vessel and
indeed, a mine layer of the recentlS
built English Arabic class
He was led to that conviction by
the following facts: First. by the
plain, unbroken deck of the ship
second the form of the stern, sloping
downward and backward like a wal
vessel; third, she was painted like 9
