Cosmos.

The surprises and remarkable possi-
bilities of what the Japanese call
jiu-j itsu are presented at the Cosmos
Theater this week by the Ottagawa
Troupe OF japanese wrestlers and ex-
perts, one of whom is a woman and
apparently as skiilful as her more
sturdy male companions. To the
casual observer the bouts seem child's
play. but to the close investigator of
quick eye, the rapid falls and
ing knocks on the stage floor disclose
la wonderful science devoted to attack
and the art of self-defense." The
show proper opens with an equally re-

seals, "Wasticka and Understudy," that
discount the human equilibrist in their
feats. Anderson and Comes have a
funny biackface skit, THE Ghost of a

With an increase in cattle production encour-
aged by the Food Administrations high prices,
had to come further increased facilities for pre-
pairing and marketing not only the meat but the
hides, hoofs and all other parts of the animal. To
meet the influx of the hundreds of additional cattle
daily, we were compelled to erect a new building
in ninety days, build additional coolers, tanks to
handle the rendered products dryers, buildings to
treat and handle castings, additional oleo kettles,
hide storage warehouses, ETC.
With the return to normal conditions, these
facilities expanded during the stress of war
to provide stock growers with necessary outlets,
and to furnish food in adequate quantities for
both Army and civilian needs-are still at the
service of the public. They represent a perma-
nent investment, assuring permanent outlet and
thus permanent supply Of best foods at true
value prices.
Today with Europe looking to America as its
most certain source of supply, together with our
own country to be fed, Armour and Company's
size and ability to handle large volume most eff

Some one has wisely said that "Production
waits on distribution" In other words, there can
be no incentive to stock-growers to produce more
livestock unless adequate outlets are provided to
keep pace with the production. When greater
yield is created on the farm, the outlet must be
widened at the market to care for it.
armour and Company are large because the
livestock industry is large Obviously the packing
industry must keep pace with the increase of live
stock and populahon-growth. AS herds increased
the Armour organization kept step with them
New plants were erected in the centers of new
stock-raising regions improved operating methods
were adopted; more refrigerator cars were built to
carry the food.
Then, with the outbreak of war, the wisdom of
this development had chance to prove ITSELF In
spite of labor shortage, disrupted railway service,
and scores of other difficulties, Armour and Com
pany and other similar concerns were equipped to
instantly meet the War Departments call for food.
In addition to shipping over hundred carloads of
meat day, or seventy-ive million pounds
month to the Army and Navy we have taken care
of civilian requirements in the usual way.

AN EXTRA GUEST
FOR CHRISTMAS

Holly in the window, turkey in the
oven, presents weighing down the
glittering tree, Christmas cheer in the
air!
Can't you make room for one more
guest in your Christmas heart-eSpe-
cially if it happens to be a little child
whose eyes are big and lonesome, and
whose little body looks as if it had
been hungry for a good long time?
For just 10 cents you can feed the
hungry stomach of such child on
Christmas day. For SO you can care
for it for the whole Of the Christmas
month. And if you can dig down in
your Christmas pocket-book and pull
out $3G.50 all in one lump, you can he
godparent to little boy or girl for a
whole year, being put in touch with
it through correspondence.
What kind of a child? Well, what
do you think about a little ten-year-
old boy who for three years worked
every day from sunup to shutdown,
saving up branches of trees for fuel =?
He must support one crippled leg
with huge stone while he worked.
One end of the huge cross-cut saw
was pressed against his tiny chest,
the other braced against the ground,
as with outstretched arms he drew to-
ward him the branches which were to
make fuel and earn 40 cents week
for himself and an old grandfather.
Or how about a little six-year-old
girl who, when the Germans carried
away every boy baby from her town,
was thrown to the pavement by a
burly German when she proved to be

number of over four hundred, was
presented to the Court praying that
the Court call special election in st.

said County a tax for a period of time
not exceeding twenty years, and to be

and the erection thereon of public

ings already erected thereon. Said
hospital to be located in the City of
Pennington, Missouri, and the maxi
mum amount of money to be expend-
ed in purchasing OF building said hos
pital shall not exceed $25,000.00. The
consideration of said petition was con-
tinued until Monday, November Bird,
1919.
Now, on this Bird day of November,
1919, the above matter again coming
on to be heard, the Court examines
said petition and finds that the same
is signed by more than one hundred
resident freeholders of said st. Fran
co.'s County, Missouri, and that more
than fifty Of the signers thereto being

1t is therefore considered, ordered

st. Franrois County, Missouri, that
special election be held, and the same
is hereby called, at all of the usual
voting precincts within st. Francois
County, Missouri, on the
Twenty-First Day of February, 1920,

Her mother was taken away by the
Germans, her father was killed in the
war.
These are just two of the 100000
French orphans Of the war. They are
being taken care of now, but thou
sands of others are without help or
friendship. All are fatherless, many
have lost their mothers, either taken
away by the Germans or dead from
exposure, privations, or in the bonn
bardments. The Fatherless Children
of France, an American organization
cooperating with a similar one in
France of which Marshal Joffre is the
head, is trying to furnish American
aid to the extent Of ten cents day
per child, to all to the tiny pension
the French Government has been able
to grant orphans of the war. Every
cent contributed for a child goes di-
rectly to it. Not one penny is used
either in this country or in France for
any other purpose; the expenses of
the work are borne by generous
friends.
Can't you add one of these children
to your Christmas list? Not only the
money but your friendship will mean
to such a child a new belief in the
Providence of God, new love and
thankfulness, and will help to wipe
out the memories Of horror and suf-

which these children have witnessed.

LUNATICS AND MILLIONAIRES

According to a report from trav-
eler in Germany, which appears in
the Chicago Tribune, the peasants in
the occupied sector liked the Ameri-
cans, but regarded them as lunatics
and millionaires. The peasants told
me, said the traveller, that you might
never know that an American was
mad unless a fly came into the room.
When the American sees a fly, a
strange, hard glitter comes into his
eyes. Then you see that he is crazy.
His mania makes him want to hit the
fly. He folds up newspapers and tip
toes over behind the fly and strikes at
it with great viciousness. If it does
not die, he pursues it and calls in
more soldiers and strikes at it again.
Some German farmers are willing
to make allowances. They say that
probably in America flies are large
and their bite causes instant death;
therefore Americans have formed the
habit of killing all the flies they see.
But another proof that Americans are
stark, raving mad is that they open
their windows at night and let in the
deadly night air, which every German
peasant knows is poisonous. They
say that, according to American SOL
diers, it is one of President Wilson's
fourteen points that all Germans
must have their windows open at
night. Some think this proves that
the Americans want to kill the Ger
mans off with consumption; others
think it shows that Wilson is as mad
as the rest Of the Americans.
