WILSON'S WORDS
 CLEAR UP DOUBT
CALIFORNIA THROWS OVER ITS LEADER, JOHNSON, AND
 RALLIES TO LEAGUE.
WEST GIVES HIM OVATION
All Doubtful Features of Pact Are Explained Away By President, and
 Former Doubters Hasten to Give Him Their Support.

(By Independent News Bureau, form erly Mt Clemens News Bureau.)
 Aboard President Wilson's Special Train-A continuous ovation along the Pacific coast and then on his eastward way back toward the capital was given to President Wilson as he came toward the end of his month daylong speaking tour in behalf of the League of Nations. California, particularly the delightful city of Los Angeles, went wild in its enthusiasm for him and his advocacy of the League, and it was in that state, perhaps, that he did lis most successful missionary work Hiram Johnson, California's former governor, now her United States sena- tor, and considered by her as the most likely Republican candidate for the presidency in 1920, had before the ar rival of President Wilson, convinced great number of citizens that the League as at present formulated was not good thing. He had told them that the United States, because of 1t, would be drawn into every petty European quarrel; he argued that we would lose our sovereignty by joining with the European nations. He had blamed the president for assenting to the possession by Japan of the Penin- : sula of Shan Tung in China.

NOTICE

In The White Chancery Court
 No. 2447
 J. B. Cyrus, Petitioner, Fix Parte,
 Suit for Confirmation of Title. Notice is hereby given that the a. bove named Petitioner, J. B. Cyrus, has this day filed in this office his petition for the confirmation of the title in himself, in and to the follow ing described real estate in White County, Arkansas, to-wit:
 The North Half (N1-2) of South West Quarter (SW1-4) of Section Twenty mine (29), Township Eight
 (8) North, Range Six (6) West,
 Now therefore, all persons, firms or corporations who claim, or can set up any right, title or interest in and to said lands, or any part thereof, are hereby warned to appear in this court on or before the next December Term, 1919, thereof and show cause, if any they can why the title of said petitioner in and to the lands afore- said should not be in him quieted and forever confirmed.
 Witness my hand and the seal of the White Chancery Court on this 10th day of September, A. D., 1919. ELMER w. SMITH, Clerk. By T. w. WELLS, D. c. s. T. HUGHES, Esq, Solicitor fk Plaintiff.

for a period of sir months, and then, if possible. accept the councils advice. That falling. they agree to refrain from war for further period of three months and nine months of cooling off" the president contended, would prevent any armed conflict. These clear explanations satisfied every reasonable nearer and destroyed the "Bugaboos" which Senator Johnson and others had raised against the League. Through rugged Nevada into Utah, the land of Mormons, the president swept to find that those fine people were heartily with him for the League and 8 per manency of peace.
Judsonia weekly advance., 1919-10-09

But MT. Wilson, with clear logic and with compelling eloquence, answered to the entire satisfaction of Califor- nia's people every objection which Senator Johnson had made to the League. And thousands of the states citizens deserted the Johnson stand ard immediately and rallied to the SUD- port of the president. More than that, they came forward and said, We were against you, MT. President, but you have cleared everything up and now we are with you heart and soul" Still more than that, they let Senator Johnson know that they were no longer with him and that they disap- proved of the speaking tour which he himself was making in opposition to the League and so powerful was the volume of public opinion which reach ed him, that the senator almost inn mediately abandoned his tour. The Shan Tung question, because of the anti-Japanese feeling which undoubted- ly exists along the Pacific coast was the most serious which the president had to answer. He explained to the people that he had been powerless to prevent the rich peninsula from being given to Japan. England and France, through a secret treaty, had promised it to Japan for entering the war and remaining in it. That treaty had to be carried out. Anyway it was not China that was losing Shan Tung, but Germany, which had seized the terri tory from China in 1898 and held 1t ever since. Japan had promised. the president explained, to return Shan Tung as soon as the peace treaty was ratified and 1t was only through the ratification of the treaty with the League of Nations inclusion, that China could ever expect to get her former property back. And she surely would get 1t back, he declared, through the ratification of the League. There fore, through the same instrumentality no other nation could again prey upon the Great, patient, diligent, but help- less kingdom" AS to our being drawn into any European conflict. The pres ident pointed out that no direct action such as the sending of troops to any part of the world to maintain or re- store order could be taken by the Council of the League without unani- nous vote of the council members, therefore our vote could at once nega- tive any such proposition as sending our soldiers where we did not want them sent Besides, MT. Wilson argued, "If you have to Quench fire in Call fornia you don't send for the fire de- partment of Utah." But, he argued, there probably never will be another war, if the League is established. for the members promise either to arbi- trate their difference and accept the decision of the arbitrator, lay the diff ferences for discussion and publicar ton before the Council of the League

Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous. irrita-
bic and may be Respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be Just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp-Root, the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will do for
them. By enclosing ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton, N. Y. you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel
Post. You can purchase medium and
large size bottles at all drug stores.-Adv.

Within ten minutes after an apple
cation of Danderine you can not find q
single trace OF dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after few
weeks use, when you see new hair, hne
and downy at frst-yes-but really
new hair-growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty Of your hair. No DIFF
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten cloth with Dam
derine and carefully draw it through
your hair, taking one small strand at q
time. The effect is amazing-your hair
will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have
an appearance of abundance; an in
comparable lustre, softness and luxu-
rance.
Get small bottle Of Knowlton's
Danderine for a few cents at any drug
store or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair Is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
Of 1t If you will Just try little DAN

friendly with the men, and while I
think they liked him they were 80
tough they would never admit 1t, and
some Of them claimed he was a Jonah,
or jinx, or bad luck Of some kind. But
they all told him their vows as soon
as they made them and he was sup
posed to be sort Of referee as to
whether they kept them or not.
During my second stunt in the front
lines things got pretty bad. The Ger
mans were five to our one and they
kept pushing back parts of the line
and cleaning out others. And tho
weather was as bad as 1t could be
and the food did not always come reg
ularly. Now, before they took their
VOWS, every last man in the bunch
would have been kicking and growing
all the time, but, as 1t was, the only
time they growled was when the Ger
mans pushed us back.
Things kept getting worse and you
could see that the men talked to the
chaplain more and quite few Of them
got real chummy with him.
