Would Largely Ilcrease Coal Output.

Greenvilie Coal Co.,
Greenville, Ky. December IL, 1917.
Editor Manufacturers Record:
We have your letter of the 4th,
making inquiries as to our views on
complete prohibition IN the United
States. We also have your slip ad-
dressed to President Wilson and the
nation, headed, vOne Great Aid to
Winning the War"
We agree very heartily with every
word and every argument uttered in
your editorial. We believe that it
will be one of the greatest aids to a
successful winning of the war that
can take place in the United States.
We know from our own experience
and We are operating three mines,
that it will largely increase the eff
cheney of our men and the output of
our mines, and will be a great eco
nomic advantage and saving to our
emplo yes. The same thing that af-
fects our men in our mines affects
all men in all mines throughout the
country. The use and sale of whiskey
practalIy cause four days loss every
month, both in running time and IN
production, at all mines throughout
the country, and in addition to this
there are numerous days and oc-
caslons when the men lay off and
will not work provided they can get
the booze.
From an economical, financial and
efficient stand point, total and COM
plete closing of saloons, will serve
penalties on anyone violating the
law, Is the paramount duty of our
Government aud people. 1t Is no
longer question of morals; it is a
question of life and death. Again
assuring you of our hearty apprecl-
| alton of the editorial and trusting
that such great papers Of yours will
give US immediate results on this
great question, | remain,
|
w. A. Wlckliff,, President.

Glad to Testify to Good Effects Of

Editor Manufacturers Record:
Answering yours of December 4,
will say that this has always been a
very interesting proposition to rs,
and we can truthfully say that the
unrestricted sale of liqnor of any
kind IS great detriment to public
work, and without doubt its prohi-
bltion would add greatly to the eff
ficiency of the labor of'our country.
This is especially true IN and
about coal mines, and while we are
under local option now, and are not
affected to any considerable extent,
we are always willing to add our
testimony to the good results of pro-
hlbluon to the labor of the country.

Pure Bred Hogs introduced.

Thursday, January 10th. Is an
epoch making event IN the history
Of Muhlenberg County, since it
marks the introduction of pure bred
livestock into the County. On that
date S boys of the county will each
receive a registered Duroc- Jersey
gilt which is already bred and is of
the very best stock afforded by Ken;
lucky. 1t is epoch making not that
it is the first introduction of pure
bred livestock, but that it is the first
introduction of its kind, and because
al the superiority of the stock l.
troduced.
The Farmers State Bank is financ
ing the proposition to the Pig Club
Boys In the County at the very low
rate of 4 per cent interest, This
gives the boys chance to increase
the hog production of the County at
the present time, a chance to i'm
prove the stock of hogs In the Coun-
ty. and an opportunity TO make some
money for themselves, as well as to
learn something about the hog bus,
ness. This is only the beginning of
d series Of in'rodpclions which it is
hoped will ultimately result in the
elimination Of the Scrub from the
County and De substitution of .the
pure-bred hog, which means greater
profits from hog raising. For furth-
er information see the County Agent.

Recent raids by officers of the law in
Somerville reveal horrible state of
affairs in regard to gambling and drink
ing here. Two weeks ago the sheriff
and bis deputies and the city marshal
raided craps game going on in a box
car on the siding at the N. c. & St. l..
Ry, station and twenty men and boys
were arrested. Information is that
they were gambling and drinking pat
ent medicine and that number in the
party were drunk. Other arrests in
smaller numbers followed and on last
Saturday night another craps game was
raided on the public square and eight
arrests were made, a number of the
parties again being drunk from the et-
fects Of the same patent medicine. And
the worst feature of the situation is
that boys yet in knee trousers are adj
mitted to these games and taught the
habit of the gambler, together with
the drinking. cursing, Safeguarding
and other kindred evils of the gambling
practlce. Sheriff Ross has been partic-
ularly active in raiding these games
since he has been sheriff and numerous
arrests made, and yet the extent Of
the gaming hes grown and grown. 1t
is understood that the parties arrested
plead guilty under the small offense act
of the state, pay nominal fine and are
allowed to go and sin again. But this
matter has gone to the extent that the
limit of the law should be dealt to vio-
lators in order that the younger genera
ton would not grow up to be gamblers
to add to the ranks Of the older ones.
Fathers here who have sons to raise
and educate and train are sorely tired
aud are backing the efforts Of Sheriff
Ross in bringing these violators before
the courts for trial, while the gamblers
are cursing him as would be expected.
The substantial men Of the community
who have their homes and their bust
ness are against these evils and want
them suppressed and these will back
the authorities to the fullest.

SICK FOLKS HUSTLE

Through the National tuberculosis

paign is being organized to get tuber-
culosls patients Of the country to en-
list every fellow "cure chaser as a
member of the Red Cross during the
coming Red Cross Christmas Roll Call.
Special campaigns have been organ
lied in all of the large sanatoria, of
which there are nearly GOO scattered
throughout the United States. Efforts
will be made to enroll one hundred
per cent. in each institution and also
to go after all patients and enroll
them as well. Every patient in the
sanatorium will be responsible to get
one more patient The movement will
be a contribution of the tuberculosis
patients of the country to the Red
Cross.
Since the National tuberculosis AS
sociaton and its affiliated agencies are
being supported by the Red Cross
through direct appropriation during
the year 1919, this effort of the tuber-
culosis patients is considered to be an
unusually appropriate one.
