FACING GREATEST CRISIS.

ATHENS. Sept 26.,--(via London.
Sept. rs. 1928 d. nj. m.)--Despite the pro
found popular belief that the country
is facing the greatest crisis in its his.
tory, calm expectancy reigns In Athens.
The Venizelist morning papers publish
declarations which the former pre-
mier left prior to his departure. in
which he says the movement he heads
Is purely Of national character and
that he has no design upon the integ.
rity of the actual government OF tho
country. M. Venizelos declares that
his course IL only way by which nation
al unity may be preserved.
1t Is learned that communication
between the king and M Venizelos
has already been established through
the former minister of war, General
fhnaikitsas. and that the outlook IL
favorable for an early arrangement
or the difficulties at present dividing
Greece. The greatest blow to King
Constantine has been the departure
OF Admiral Condouriotis, who. after
the sovereign. is the most distin
gulshcd national hero.

SHERIFF MANGuM
 OUT WITH FACTS
Declares He Feels It His Duty to Say a Good Word For Medicine That Has
 Helped Him
 So Much.

"Tanlac has certainly helped me, and I recommend it to others for what it has done in my case" said Hon. c. w. Mangum, of Atlanta, sheriff of Fulton county.
 T have personally recommended it to a great many people. l know of at least fifteen or twenty fami- lies who have bought it on my say so.
 T am 70 years old, and have most always been pretty strong and healthy until here lately I have been in a nervous, worn-out, run down condition. My stomach was upset most of the time, and I di- gested my food poorly Most always after eating I would have a full, un- comfortable feeling that would last for several hours.
 After taking the second bottle of Tanlac the fullness and all the disagreeable sysmptoms disappear
 
 well man. I now eat heartily without any bad after effects, and I sleep well at night.
 "Tanlac seemed to be just what l needed to put my system in shape, and has toned me right up. Under the circumstances, I think it per- feetly natural for me to say a good word for it and recommend it to my friends
 Among the large number of prom inent men in public life in the South who have recently given Tan lac their unqualified indorsement for the specific aid to them are Hon. Mckenzie Moss, judge of the Eighth Kentucky judicial district; Hon. Moses R. Glenn, Kentucky state su- perintendent of printing; Col. John B. Gaines, editor and publisher of the Bowling Green Daily News; George w. Hinton, former secretary of the Warren County Equity Lea que; President Pegg of the New port Business College, and others.
 Among those prominent in com- mercial life, who have more recent ly indorsed Tanlac, are c. c. Coop CT, president of the Georgia Cotton Oil Company, Lawrenceville, Ga. |; H. w. Hill, bank president, of South Pittsburg, Tenn; J. F. Carroll, cot ton mill superintendent, of Chatta- hoochee, Ga; c. M.

 Steal a Ford Car
tFrom Wednesdays Daily Press)

Four boys students in the Para gould public schools, this morning stole Dr. w. R. Owens Ford car from his garage In the rear of his premises on West Court street and for more than an hour indulged in a joy ride, finally abandoning the car in front of A. P Mack's resi- dence on North Seventh street. Dr. Owens left his car In his gar age this morning because 1t was so cold he could not start the en- zine running. He shut the north .door and opened the south door to
 let the sun shine on the car. The
 boys went west in the alley and
 entered the garage through the |south entrance. They were unable to start the engine and one of the Agee and got some hot water, claiming John Thiel's car was stall ed in the alley. With the aid of the water they started the engine and drove the car out Dr. Owens says somebody tried to steal his car out yesterday, but failed to get the engine going.
 Dr. Owens stated this afternoon he had ascertained the names of the four boys and would have war rants issued for their arrest, and would vigorously prosecute the charge against them.
 During last night parties entered Trice Brothers barn on West Main street, broke the lock on Harry McPherson's Ford roadster and took a joy ride, returning the car to the barn before day.

How many of us have given serious thought to these important questions upon which We snall soon te called to vote?

LET US STOP AND THINK

Faulkner county never before Wit messed such times as 1t is now eXper- fencing. Undreamed of prices are be- ing received for cotton, cottonseed, corn, livestock and all kinds of farm products and the crops, while not bountiful, are almost as good as the average. The attendant prosperity has brought with it condition that is not altogether desirable Since early in September there has been a mad rush to gather and market cot ton. Cotton has overshadowed every thing. Little thought has been given to anything else For six weeks We have been living in a veritable whlrl- wind of work and business.
 Yet there are other things we ought to be thinking about. We ought not to forget our civic, politi- cal, educational and religious duties. no matter to what unprecedented figure the price of cotton is carried.
 For instance, the general election of November ' is almost on us. It will be the most important election that has been held in this state in two generations, for it is the first that has been held in this state in two gener- ations, for it is the first time since the constitution of 1874 was adopted that the federal and state elections have occurred at the same time.

UNFAIR.

In the election proclamation observe the caption of Act No. ?. It Is very misleading-in fact. a lie. But We have to put it in as published by the Rogers Democrat and other favorites of Earle W. Hodges, the man who would not allow his books to be aud tied and who ran 3rd in the race for governor. Do not vote for Act No. 2.-Benton County Democrat.
 The Log Cabin Democrat is just as much opposed to Act No. } as is the Benton County Democrat, but the Benton County Democrat is very un- fair in its insinuation that Secretary of State Earle ". Hodges is respon- s'9le for the misleading character of the ballot title of Act No. ?. If the Democrat had not been so anxious to diseredit the secretary of state it could have easily ascertained that it ls the attorney general and not the secretary of state who by law Is re- aulred to prepare the ballot title for initiated measures to be voted upon hy the people. The Democrat can now prove that 1t was not inspired by mal- lee against Nr, Hodges if il will print section 10 of Act No. , of the extraordinary session of the general assembly of 1911. and publish along with 1t an apology to the secretary of state.
