John Weldon Kirtley

Whereas, 1t has pleased the Great
Superintendent of all things to re-
move from our school and to pro-
mote to the school in a brighter
cline John Weldon Kirtley, who
died on May 10, 1918, and whereas,
there is vacant place in his class
aud in the school that cannot be
filled;
Therefore, be it resolved by the
Evening Shade Sunday School that
we have lost a faithful member, his
boyhood friends a generous play
fellow, and the community at large
a boy with many bright promises
and sterling qualities. He was
most manly boy whom every one
admired. He was studious, enerSet.
ic and always respectful to all.
Be it further resolved, that copy
of these resolutions be written in
the minutes of the school, a copy
given to the bereaved family, and a
copy furnished the Sharp County
Record for publication.

Health Worker Coming

DR.. I. j. Woods has received no
tice from the proper authorities at
Little Rock that an anti.tuberculosis
campaign will be begun in this
county before very long. The letter
to him states that we will try to
have worker in your county by
the end Of the year, and as 1t is a
mountain county will probably try
to get there in midsummer
In this campaign the people will
be instructed in the care and treat
ment of consumptive patients, and
in the prevention Of tuberculosis.
Those who have this work In
charge express themselves as much
sratified at the SPLENDID showing
made by this county last winter
in the sale of Red Cross Seals,
which made this campaign possible,
and which sale was conducted by
DR.. Woods. They declare that
Sharp, a strictly rural county, did
well in this sale, raising more funds
than some of the more populous
and richer counties.

Courts are established for the ad.
ministration of justice and for the
protection of the weak against the
strong, and when our courts cease
to accomplish these two things for
the people they should be abolished
and thus stop all the expense of
holding them and stop the judges

You say that you are engaged

Is it not a fact that you did not

CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS
FACTS ESTABLISHED
 HOW ZEPPELlNS DID
 NOT MAKE ANY NOISE

LONDON, Nov. 9.-Ever since the big Zeppelin night raid on London October IT, 1917, the public has be- lieved that the Zeppelin commander stopped their engines and allowed the giant craft to drift silently with the wind across the city which was unaware of the enemy's presence un- til bombs were actually dropped.
 But the facts, now made known, were that the apparent silence of the Zeppelin engines was due part ly to abnormal accoustical condi- tions, partly to the great height at which the airships flew in order to be above the range of British anti-aircraft fire, and partly because some of the engines did stop-al- though not by any desire of their engineers. The few engines that stopped, prisoners have disclosed, did so because the crews were too height-sick to operate them.
 Experts say that the abnormal acoustics of that night are not likely to recur and there probably will be no return of the "silent" Zeppelin. Airplanes, on the other hand, are capable of making a silent descent upon town, as was proved, it is pointed out, by the raid of British machines on Mannheim on the night of August 23. One pilot glided down to 200 feet from an all titude of 5000. He was enabled to make a direct hit with every bomb dropped and he circled around for seven minutes, sweeping the Bad isch poison gas factory and other works, also searchlights, with ma chine-gun fire, and finally got away scot free.

FINLAND BECAME A MONARCHY BY
 YIELDING TO HUNS

COPENHAGEN, Nov. T2.-Fin- land became monarchy instead of a republic solely because the Films yielded to German domination ac- cording to communication from Finnish sources published in the Berlin Vorwaerts. The correspond ent asserts that up to April last the Finnish leaders were determined to organize a republic but in May the government withdrew the meas ure for its organization and advo- cated a monarchy, giving as its req son the fact that Germany desired it.
 The Vorwaerts asserts that all though the German government pretended to be neutral on this ques- tion the political section of the German general stan supported a monarchy in Finland.
 Tn reality we were not free" writes the Finnish correspondent. German troops were quartered throughout Finland and warships lay in Helsingfors harbor. The Finnish foreign minister amounted d in the Finland Diet in July that the German government wanted a mon- archist government in Finland.

sinking Of the British liner Tuscanla
torpedoed Tuesday night off the Irish
coast by a German submarine. OF 2l79
American troops on board, 2O11 officers
and men have been accounted for ac.
cording to British admiralty dispatches.
Early reports led to fears that 1000
men might have been lost, but an Of
fetal dispatch to Washington raised the
number Of saved among the troops to
more than 1900, and later British or.
fetal adyices still further increased the
total
All told, it appears from official re.

these, the total rescued is given as 2,187,
