SOLDIER NOTES

Allan C~oatsworth, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Coatsworth, of this city,
has landed from overseas at Newport
News. He was in France Is months
with the 23rd U. S. Engineers.
Lieut.. Charles Brown, who formerly
lived nirth of Rush Hill in this county
was a visitor in Mexico Thursday. He
was on his way to Camp Grant where
he is now stationed. Lieut.. Brown
looks fine and it seems that his life in
the army has done him good. He has
seen twenty-six months service over
seas. He expects to be discharged in
the neal future.
Sergt. Harold Frost, son of Mrs.
Lilly Herold Frost, of Vandalia, is
home fromrservice. We are glad he
returned safe and sound.
II. G. Ridgway, formerly of near
Auxvasse, and his French bride were
in Mexico Wednesday night. They left
this morning with Mr.. Ridgeway's
mother for a visit in Auxvasse. They
will probably make their home in Kan
sas City.

BACK TO THE FARM.

FROM what many returning SOL
diers tell us there seems to be more
truth than poetry in the words of the
popular song to the effect of Chow
are you going to keep them on the
farm after they've seen gay Paree?"
Many returned soldiers, boys who
have spent the greater part of their
lives on the farm, are not showing any
decided desire to return to agriculture.
However we believe this is only
momentary and that as they gradually
adjust themselves they will see the
situation better and realize that after
all the freest life in the world is that
Of the farmer.
Good roads and motor cars are go
ing to play an important part in the
reconstruction program for they will
make the farm more attractive to the
young people.
Modern conveniences, which in the
past were to be found only in towns,
now are becoming more frequent IN
the country homes of this nation.
All of these will play their part in
making the farm more attractive. The
day of the farm having a poor dwell

ominous figures for the consumer"
ANoTHER suFFERER.

YOU hear a lot of good people SYM
pathizing with those who have been
denied their daily share of booze.
There are certain red nosed, fringy
trousered individuals who are extend
ing sympathy to themselves.
There are others who are finding
fault because "~pickled," Spilled"
"soused" and other slangy expressions
will soon be missing from u daily
conversation.
Yet we have not found one, who has
sympathized with the house fly for its
plight since prohibition became a fact.
There was no more faithful follower
of the saloon, especially in the sum-
mer time, than the house fly.
1t was there when the porter opened
the door in the morning to let the
stale air of the close barroom, free to
themorning sun and dew kissed dawn,
it assisted the first watch bar keep to
devour his breakfast as he served the
gentry getting their "mornin's morn
inn. 1t remained throughout the day
and at night, when the lights were
dimmed, the fans turned off and the
white apron and coat shelved for an
other day, it was on duty.
1t never critisized the brew or its
alcohol contents. 1t was satisfied to
get "its" from the bar, bar rail, care
lessly towled table or from the lips Of
the. sleeping topper in the alleyway be-
side the family entrance.
The bar was to the fly what the ex-
banding flower of the clover is to the
bee. 1t buzzed about, satisfied with
what it could get and yet soberly at
tentive to the duties of its day.
So we drop a "wet" tear for the
house fly and its loss of personal lib
erty. Never in the swattiest of swat
ting campaigns has it's lines been har-
der. It's opportunity for the distri-
button of typhus germs has been cur
tailed, its activities in behalf of the
propagation of other diseases limited
In fact its uselessness vas more
so than today according to fly philo'
sophy.
, So when you bemoan the hardships
| brought about by prohibition remem'
| Der the common house fly and what
| it has suffered too.

IN HI COAL FIELDS.

THE st. Louis Post Dispatch in
speaking of coal conditions editorially
says:
observers have for months been
noting with amazement the number of
coal mines adjacent to st. Louis which
are either shut down or employing
their men only part Of the time. The
small current demand for coal is as
signed as the reason and the natural
consequences of lack Of demand would
be a reduction in price, Has, how
ever, anyone learned of any reduction
in price? On the contrary, most
dealers have the assurance to ask on
many grades of coal even 0 than
the robber prices of war time, with
its congestion of railroads and scar
city Of men. Buy your coal now is
the warning that comes from many
sources. But nothing would do as
much toward stimulating coal buying
as a prompt return to a reasonable
price basis.
What's the new idea of the coal
magnates? The mild weather last
winter put a sad crimp in their ex-
pectations, though they scorned to
bring down prices. Do they think
that by balancing a mild winter will
unprecedentedly low summer produc'
ton they can buttress prices at theil
present high level and ever hoist then
higher in the event of a severe win

on the farm. today are just as attrac-
tive as those in town.
Never, in the history Of the world,
has it been so important to have men
Of ability and power directing the
farming interests of this land.
The high price of land makes it i'm
perative that production be at the ut
most and that better stock and more
modern operation take their place for
the development of agriculture.
1t requires the men who made u
army what it was to make u farms
what they should be. Efficiency and
systems as well as a practical know
ledge of scientific farming is para
mount.
The laggard and the lazy man have
no place in filling the soil. Like bus
mess of today farming is on a higher
plane and requires more of those dir
Getting it than ever.
The boys who return to the farm de-
termined to succeed will make good
and benefit the nation as well as them
selves.
Audrain county is proud of the in
telligent and high class farmers who
make up our country population and
their sons and daughters are the kind
to carry on the splendid work of their
parents.

SUPPLEMENT TO
The Weekly Ledger
BE YOURSELF.

1T is SO hard for some people to be
natural that a days work in the har-
vest field looks like five o'clock in
London to a tea-hound beside their eff
forts.
They are trying so hard to be some
thing else that they are losing them
selves for all time and in exchange
accepting an effigy which will always
be like the scarecrow in the Wizard
Of Or.
This transformation takes place
when we are passing from Audience
to maturity and the gold nature has
endowed US with becomes the dross of
make-be-lieve before we know it.
The change resembles that of the
quiet and retiring citizen who, in pro-
prohibition days, took too many drinks
and became the most assertives and
leather lunged lout in the party. Only
with him the change was not perman-
ent.
There are times when the FURNISHED
leaden front is accepted at its face
value but before long those who have
the power to seek below the surface
discover the glitter not to be gold.
In the last analysis in the mint of
human values he is assayed and his
true value stamped upon him. He is
either a pompus ass or she becomes a
vain cat.
Natures endowments, with which
much could have been accomplished
with proper cultivation, like y%ester-
day, can never return.
In their effort to fool others they
have fooled themselves and the loss
is wholly their own.
It is a case of a counterfeiter nc
cepting the coin of his own makings.
The first symptom of this charge in
a girl is a resort to the rouge pot be-
fore the bloom of youth has faded
and a feking of fashionable scenic in
vestiture with all the pitiful effort Of
a Sis Hopkins.
In a boy it comes with a change ir
the angle of his hat lined and the
adoption Of a "roll-your-own" as ar
architecture. adjunct to his facial fea'
lures.
If you can't be natural don't bt
foolish.
When you start out to fool Other
people about what you are the frs
sucker on ycur list is yourself.
Tic best J ar / know believes MOS
of the tales he tells. That is why h,
thinks he is getting away with it.

WHILE it is true that a great many
laws are violated thoughtlessly It is
also a fact that many are openly dis
regarded by many who would violently
resent the charge of claw breaker"
1t frequently impresses us that this
tendency on the part of coed citizens
is simply an adult expression of the
inclination in youth to slip into the
jam closet on a sugary raid if .they
can "gct by with it. Such law VOL
atoms, for the most part, are in minor
matters and yet if they were not, at
some time or another, against the SAT-
ETY. of the public they would not be
legislated against.

CRITICIZED U. S. STATE DEPT.
For Withholding Passports of American
Delegates to Socialist Conference.

it was suggested that William English

factions.
