THE wisest of men sometimes
do very foolish things" George
Creel or some one else in charge
did that very thing when the
word was passed down the line
not to publish the fact that a
body of troops had landed in
France. We all know our boys
are going over in a small but
steady stream and that most Of
them are arriving there save
and sound. Whatever the pub
licity bureau may think or say,
we are going to know when our
boys leave our shores and the
sooner we hear of their arrival
the sooner will the anxiety
about U-boats, torpedoes and
life belts be relieved. No better
way could be devised to breed
distrust a nd dissatisfaction
among the people than to deny
them the truth when that truth
could be of no possible benefit to
the enemy, Our people are
brave and willing to die, but
they are not willing to be kept
in the dark. Publish the facts,
all the facts, as soon as the
knowledge of the facts cease to
be of value to the enemy.

From a lot of expressions one
hears these days one would be
led to believe that this section
never made a good crop of corn
before. The fact is the very
opposite is true. This section
usually makes a good crop,
almost if not quite as good as
this.
1t is true that more corn will
be gathered here this year than
has been gathered in any one
year for quite a while, because
more is planted. But this Sec
ton has made more corn and
better corn than it is making
this year. Much of the upland,
now run down, used to average
around 60 bushels of corn to the
acre and much of it was planted
to corn. During the civil war,
the women, old men, negroes and
children made and gathered
more corn in a year than will be
made here this year.
An old soldier told us the
other day that he had seen a
hundred thousand bushels of
corn on fire where our depot now
stands. This was government
corn and was a tenth of the
corn grown near here. Another
old soldier told US of seeing the
railroad below town lined for
miles and miles with rail pens
filled with corn.
In fact, Mississippilis the home
of the corn. 1t holds the
worlds record for a single acre
and a hundred acre field. And
besides that it is a good wheat
state, the average yield being
about the same as the great
wheat state, Kansas. There is
nothing to keep our people from
all the corn they want
to if they turn their attention
to it.
If you think this section is
making a very unusual yield of
corn this year, one Of four things
is true-you are very young,
you have been here only a few
years, you failed to observe
what was going on around you
Or you don't know what a field
IF corn is when you see it.

Does A Community
Need A Newspaper?

discussion, but it sometimes
comes up and this is one of the
times it is up. If a newspaper
is needed in a community that
community should maintain the
paper to that degree whereby
the paper can serve the needs of
the community. Such is not the
case here now. Perhaps it is
largely our fault in that we have
not asked the price.
Three years ago cotton went
down to next to nothing. Last
year all crops failed while the
year before conditions were little
letter. Therefore, for the past
three years we have not collect
ed up subscription accounts near
ly SO closely as we ought, and
that, too, after paper and other
things entering into the making
of a newspaper had advanced to
such an extent that there would
have been no profit left had we
made collections. AS a consequ-
ence, we find ourself going deeper
in debt while our plant is wear
ing away as the weeks go by
with not enough revenue to re-
place that worn down. In view
| of these facts, we have decided
to make some changes.
On and after October LIST, the
prices charged for advertising
space will be II cents per single
column inch for each insertion
with charge of 5 cents per
inch for all composition. Posi-
ton ads will be charged higher.
Readers will remasn as now, 5
| per line for each insertion but
readers running regularly will
be charged at display rates. No
single ad will be taken for less
than 20 cents week. All con-
tracts may be renewed now at the
rate now in force and new con-
tracts will be accepted at our
present rate. These prices are
for ads without position.
On the above date, the sub
scription price will be raised to
$3.50 per year. All accounts
will be entered on the ledger,
and a clean slate shown on the
subscription list. Of course all
who are paid in advance will re-
main on the list as they are, and
as many more may pay in ad-
vance as may wish to do so and
for as long time.
Now, at first thought, these
advances may look large, but
they are not. Two years ago
your dollar paid for a years sub
scription bought exactly one.
third more paper than a doller
and a half will buy today, with
other things entering into the
making of a newspaper in nearly
the same proportion. Then, too,
you can pay the advanced price
with less corn. less cotton, less
hay, or less of almost anything
else you have to sell. Again, it
now requires $1.57 to buy the
same amount of food and cloth
ing $1.00 bought at the begin
ming of 1916.
What is true relating to SUBJ
scription prices is also true as
relates to advertising prices. |
For more than a year we have
been unable to enlarge the paper
to accommodate extra advertis-
ing without adding to our loss.
Our prices, made several years
ago, were as low as we could
make them and come ont. now

Overland Inspectors Watch
for Variance Of Even Less
Than a Hair IN Product

Can you imagine an object two thou
sandths Of an inch in thickness-less
than one half the width of a human
hairl
II isn't very likely that you can
measure, much less see an object of
such minute proportions, unless you are
, equipped with mierometer or micro
scope.
Yet the cylinders of automobile mo-
tors are subjected to such rigorous in
speetions in some manufactures that a
variance of two thousandths of an inch
is sufficient cause for the rejection Of
the cylinder under examination.
All WHY'S Overland motors are test
ed by "go'' and "no go" guages.
The ego" guage, which allows for
one thousandth of an inch clearance,
makes sure that the cylinder is not too
tight for the piston. The ''no go"
/ euaqe, one thousandth of an inch larg-
| er than the bore >of the cylinder is
used to make sure that it isn't too
large, for should that plug fit into q
lcylinder it would be promptly reject
i ed. However, reflections from this cause
are few and far between, because OF
the accuracy of the manufacturing on-
erations through which the cylinder
has passed.
Two thousandths Of an inch variance
ldoes not ruin a motor, but the aim OF
the Willys-Oyerland company is t.
manufacture as perfect product a.
human endeavor and specially con
structed machinery can make it. Con
sequently, all Overland motors are test
cd to insure a perfect piston fit insid
the cylinders, so that there can be III
loss of power through improper com
llpression.
The guages used are made Of tn
hardest steel, maehiRed and fooled I
the exact size, so that there is virtual
ly no wear on them. Yet to be positiv
of this the Willys.0verland eompan
employs a corps of men to daily chec
the accuracy of the guages used in a
slinspections and tests.
