Publishers of newspapers all over the country
will hail with relief the decision of the federal trade
commission to handle the news print situation. The
paper shortage has been due not only to probable
manipulation of existing stocks superimposed on
domestic supply which the war rendered made
quate, but to lack of coordination among various
elements of consumers. In no way except federal
control could such coordination be reached. The
interstate commerce commission has proved that a
federal body can be a splendid force for efficient
conduct of great semipublc business -railroading
and another great semi-public business news.

Representative Walsh of Maui is eminently right
in declaring that the house loses dignity by con
tinual nagging of the governor. No legislator is a
greater stickler for the dignity of the house than
Speaker Holstein yet it is in the house that most
of the measures aimed at the governor are finding
ready sponsors

The Largest Crowd Ever Seen in
Marion After Dark Was Here
To Hear Creatore's Band

Creatore and his band were
greeted with the largest crowd
ever seen in Marion. After sun
down people from Princeton Fre-
donia, Tolu and all surrounding
towns began TO pour in. A while
Marion's Main drive looked like a
real city. The chautauqua tent
was full and not a single seat
was available. A large crowd had
to stand up out side the tent. 1t
was said that 20 autos were here
from Princeton alone. Everyone
thoroughly enjoyed the band. The
crowd was estimated inside and
out at 1900 to 2000 people. l05
autos were parked on north Main

RECORD YOUR
RESOURCES.
Show Your Patriotism By Coming
to Your Voting Place July7,
And Registering

I h e r e deral government
through the Councils of NationaI
Defense has asked that every
farmer and producer in this
great country of ours give an ac-
curate record of what he is pro.
ducing.
The good business man makes
a careful inventory of his assets
and liabilities at least once a
year. These inventories are
necessary in order that he may
know whether he is making or
losing money. In this way only
can he fortify his business
against possible loss.
We are at war with one of the
most powerful and the most
brutal foe in the world. We
must win this war, and in order
to win we must throw all our re.
scources into the struggle. Our
resources consist of every thing
that can be used against this
enemy. 1t consists of men and
money, it consists of all availa.
bic material that can be used in
war. 1t consists every available
article food for man and animal.
We have got to feed our selves
and our allies and to do this we
must know how much food we
will have when the present crop
is harvested. We have been
asked to ascertain what Critten-
den Co will have to feed herself
and to sell to others.
We feel that the people of this
county are patriots enough to
give one day to this work. We
are asking you to come to your
voting places Saturday July 7,
and there record all your farm
products. This will not take
more than one half day for any
one and we feel sure that you
will be glad to do this for the
good of your country.
We fear that our people do not
realize the seriousness Of the
situation, twenty five thousand
of our boys are at the front now,
and they are fighting for US they
are our representatives in this
great struggle. Before many
months pas we will have millions
of soldiers in the trenches. but
they are so far away that we do
not grasp the situation as it con.
fronts US.
Now suppose that a few bombs
could be dropped from the clouds
by the enemy air men into our
community We would wake up
and begin to ask what we can
do, our patriotism would soon be
at white heat and we would be
ready to do ony thing that our
government called US to do.
1t is our earnest desire that
Crittenden county do her part
and do it we'll. We have always
been up and doing in the past so
let us wake up to a realization of
the situation. to the fact that we
are in actual war and that we
have got a part to play, that no
one else can play for US, and like
all good citizens do our duty and
! do it well.

The CHAU7AUQUA
HAS Come & GONE
A Week Of High Class and Edueat-
ional Entertainments Came to
A Close Yesterday

The Redpath Chautauqua for
1917 is now in the past, but who
can truthfully say we have not
had a season of pleasure and re-
Taxation we'll worth the cost.
The program this year was far
a head of any previously present
ed here and was good from the
very beginning. That person who
could not get the price of a sea-
sons ticket out of most any at
traction offered has something
wrong with his mechanism. The
The program embraced subjects
to interest big. little. old and
young, and Mr.. Sypert, the di-
rector, was onto his job and
came right up to the standard
already set, by Dickie and 9TH
ers SO popular here on previous
engagements.
On Wednesday. June 10th. the
Bohemian orchestra appeared in
two engagements. and the six
pieces were handled in marvel
Gus fashion. furnishing a de-
lightful prelude, to the big pro-
gram, and was followed Monday
evening by DR.. Martin. D. Hard
in, in his great lecture, "Ameri-
ca and the world of tomorrow"
The speaker came not as a
stranger to Marion, we feel that
we knew him before. He is a
son of P. Watt Hardin, much
loved public man in this state,
and is a son-in-law of Adlai E.
Stephenson, that figure in ma
tional history of whom democrats
are SO proud. and further we
knew of him through Rufus and
Roy Terry, two of our county
joys now living in Chicago where
they were members of DR.. Hard
ms church, he has been a Presby.
terian minister. 1t is said of his
lecture, that the United States
government released all war
taxes from Redpath Chautauquas
when it became known to the
powers that be in Washington
City, that DR.. Hardin's lecture
was on the program. Every
Chautauqda tent became at once
a temple of liberty.
DR.. Hardin last year lectured
on the topic, Civilization at the
Cross roads," speaking to large
audiences in l12 cities on one Of
the Western Redpath circuits.
II am not a peace at any
price man." declared DR.. Mar
tin d. Hardin. whose peace lec-
ture concerning the titanic
struggle in Europe was declared
by William j. Bryan to be the
strongest speech delivered in
America on the European situa-
tion."
A Southerner by birth, Dr..
Hardin is man of Northern ex-
perience, until recently holding
the pastorate of one of the larg-
est of Presbyterian churches in
Chicago, resigning to enter the
lecture fleld.

form experience. The Beulah Back
