WEATHER REPORT

Excepting a few scattered showers.
the past week was very dry and quite
warm, and toward the close brisk dry
ing winds prevailed in the northern
section, The week was favorable for
farm work, which is now probably
normally advanced in nearly all sect
ions. Planting cotton, corn, beans.
sorghum vegetables, and transplant
ing sweet potatoes proceeded active
ly during the week. Good stands
have been secured of early planted
cotton and corn, but late planted
crops are terminating slowly for lack
OF rain which is beginning to be bad
ly needed for all crops and to soften
the ground for blowing. The pros
poets are poor for wheat and oats.
which are heading now a good crop
of apples is indicated and fair crop
of peaches, Berries need rain to ma
ture well. Some vegetable seeds are
becoming scarce in PAGES.

THE SECRET is OUT

Atlanta, Ca, May 2.-Now that the
grand opera in Atlanta is over there
can be no harm in telling the sensa-
tional though silly story which is back
of the real reason why the attendance,
while good, was something less than
last year.
Some said it was the war and some
said it was prohibition, but it wasn't
either.
On the Saturday before the opening
of opera week wild rumor became
current in Atlanta that the Auditorium
was going to be blown up by Ger

DOWN WHERE THE SOUTH
BEGINS

Down where the handclasp's little
stronger,
Down where the smiles dwell little
longer
That's where the South begins.
Down where the skies are a trifle
bluer;
Down where friendships a little
truer;
Down where everything is newer
That's where the South begins
Where there's more of singing and
less of signing;
Where there's more of giving and
less of buying;
And man makes friends without half
trying
That's where the South begins.

that there was absolutely nothing to

INCITES PATRIOTISM.

We are in receipt of another COM
munication from Mr.. Charles G. Mel
son, the rather eccentric shoemaker
who located here a few months ago,
and who seems determined to pre-
sent the government with valuable
piece of real estate which he claims
to own near the San Francisco Bay,
to be used as home or hospital for
disabled soldiers or other needy per-
sons, the idea being to commence n
new fund for philanthropic purposes.
The communication follows:
Cedar City, Utah, Nov. 19th.-
Fellow Citizens: In our present time
of struggle for Democracy, let each
one of us do our best for the nations
welfare. Our head executive, the
President, voices to stand by night
and day for its welfare. Therefore
let US show and give our support to
relleVe our nation ana make IL as
safe as possible, that all under our
flag can enjoy the fruits of suflic-
lent Democracy. To not only secure
our soldier boys, but to secure the
topmost efficiency Of our nation.
This can only be done by securing
the health of our nation. In order to
do so, call on every patriot of the
land to give freely of their surplus
wealth. | will offer our government
my home for a hospital for the af-
flicted of our nation, whether soldier
or citizen, man, woman or child, where
they can securely find haven until
their stormy life is fit TO venture out
among their fellow men, whit health
in mind and body.
firmly believe that it is the moral
duty of a citizen to do their utmost
to relieve suffering among their fell
low men; to do what little we can To
make a healthy and moral people in
our land and next in the whole earth
Therefore | offer my all for the ma
tons welfare system.

LOCAL DRAFT BOARD ASKS
VOLUNTEER CLERICAL AID

The members of the local Draft
Board have big task before them,
which must be completed in the next
60 days, preparatory to the second
draft of men to be made February
first. The new arrangement by which
the registered men are arranged in
five classes will be much simpler and
effective in getting the national army
together; but the change from one
system to the other will require the
services of a number of people be-
sides the local board. As very little
funds are available for the operation
of the draft laws, the extra assist
ance required must come from volun-
teer services of patriotic citizens who
are favored by having some clerical
training.
The Local Board would therefore
appreciate the services Of any one
who feels that he can spare a little
time for a patriotic duty. This work
of the Board which has been exacting
and arduous is gratis; surely some of
our young, capable people can find
time to devote to whatever task the
Local Board can find for them.
