Out for Adventures

A couple of other nurses and

We had a keen desire to go up near
er the front lines, and as day hap
pened along when for wonder it
did not rain, we started out. The
first five miles we walked the next
We rode in an ambulance, then hop
ped onto a truck, and went some
farther, tho not so far as we had
planned. However, we saw a ruin
ed city, looked out from an Observ-
aeory, and had a few other interest
in2 experiences. The enemy had
occupied the city only couple Of
weeks previous to that. The cook
for an officer mess invited us to
eat dinner, which we did in an old
priests house. We expected to get
caught any minute, but didn't much
care-we were looking for spice. We
visited dugouts, underground pas
sages and camoufages of various
sorts. Coming back we made the
trip first by truck and second by
the private car of some artillery
major who picked US up. We have
pretty we'll secured this part of the

so little diversion Of any kind that

down on Us too hard. A good many

TAX ASSESSMENTS
FOR COUNTY ARE
MADE TOO Low

Average assessments on Wayne
county property, as shown by the
first report mailed to the state tax
board last week by County Assessor
Mathews, are far too low, the board
told Mathews Monday.
One hundred dollars should be
tackled on to the present valuation of
automobiles, $3.50, the board said, $11
is characterized as "ridiculously
low" valuation for sheep and $63 for
household goods was far too low.
Value Of farm property sold for
certain figure should be given partly
as on the land and partly on the real
estate, but should total what the prop
erty sold for the letter also said.
One hundred and sixty dollars is the
average valution OF Madison county
farm land, said Mathews, and Madison
county land is no better than that of
Wayne county.

theatre Saturday evening. Miss An

mature type, and cleverly presented
the character Of woman who finds
that her former husband is billeted at

MINIMUM COTTON PRICE
CAL LED BY GOVERNORS

Atlanta, Ga. Aug. 27.--To discuss the

8, having been called by southern gov
ernors and the American Cotton Asso

Gov. Sidney j. Cats of Florida; Gov.
\. II. Roberts of Tennessee; Gov. Rob

Gov. William P. Hobby of Texas. The
proclamation follows:
| Whereas, the president of the United
| States in his address to the congress
of the United States on August s, 1919,
| has called attention to grave conditions
| of distress confronting large numbers
of our people by reason of constantly
rising living costs, due to the perver.
sion of the ordinary laws of supply and
demand and to the activitiehs of specu.
| lators and profiteers in the necessities
of life; and
| Whereas, these conditions are of Spe
cial concern to the people of the south
ern states in view of their absolute de.
pendence upon the cotton industry as
the basis of their well being, and espe.
cially in view of the fact that cotton
prices have entirely failed to keep pace
with the prices of manufactured prod
ucts and other commodities which they
must buy;
Therefore, we, as governors of the
states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida
Georgia, Louisiana. Mississippi, Mis-
souri,, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South
Carolina, Tennessee and Texas in as
sociation with the president of the
American Cotton Association, do here
by summon representative farmers, mer.

sional men from our several states here.

the city of New orleans, La, on the
Sth and 9th of September, and to study.
ways and means of dealing with such
prices as they relate to the life and
comfort of our people; and
I'm particular to study such condi-
tions as they relate to the cotton in
dustry as a whole to the determination
of fair and just price for cotton, based
upon considerations of supply and de-
mand and the price of manufactured
products of cotton"
The first day will be devoted mainly
to organization and membership work
of the association and the consideration
of the general situation in the business
world. Recommendation of a minimum
price for cotton will be the feature OF
the concluding session, decision to be
reached after the conservative study and
discussion of all matters affecting the
producers of the staple. Speakers of
national and state prominence will be
on the program.

CALIFORNIA PEOPLE
ENTHUSIASTIC FOR
LEAGUE Of NATIONS

Washington. Aug. Eff the people
League of Nations, majority would
be cast for ratification, In the opinion
OF Frank c. Jordon, secretary of state
for California and one of the most
popular officials that state has ever
had,
Mr.. Jordon who is In Washington
for visit OF few days is u republi
can and is now serving his tenth con
secutive year as secretary of state, be
ing reelected the last time by ma
jority of more than 100000.
The American people favor agree
ments to prevent future wars, Mr.
Jordon said in "A statement to news
paper man after his arrival in the Ma
tional capital, and will not approve of
any partisan action that will again
imperil civilization.
THE people of California are walt
ing until those for and against the
league have fought the question out
on the floor of the senate" said Mr.
Jordon, who continued: IF vote
We're taken in California today, 1t would
be for ratification of the treaty. The
American people favor agreements
which will prevent wars in the future
They feel that the covenant will have
such force that nations will hesitate
tu attack when this agreement Is
pledged to the observance of its condi
tions, and that faith will not be lightly
broken Nations will hesitate to treat
II as another scrap of paper.
America fought for civilization, ana
win not approve of any partisan action
at this great moment which may i'm
peril it again.
America needs a league of nations
as well as England and France. There
was moment in the great conflict
when the success Of German arms
meant possible disaster to our own
land The day has passed when Am
erica can take refuge in an attitude of
selfish isolation"
President Wilson's labors in the IN
terest of lasting peace entite him to
the gratitude of every peace-luNing
and fair.minded man, Mr.. Jordon as
serts.
Critics of the president attempt to
visualize the super-man,' SAID Mr.. Jor'
don whereas Mr.. Wilson is merely
"A Nlrllt Anltflcun VINO mas ttNoit' ''''
his powers of heart and brain for the
upbuiding Of what is intended to be
barrier against the forces of destruc-
ton. In that barrier points of weak
ness may develop but what he has al
ready done constitutes u restraining
force which ought to make every Am
erican feel that the welfare of the peo'
pie of all nations has been safeguard
ed for the future, and for this much
Mr.. Wilson deserves the gratitude ol
every fair minded man"
Violation of the law of supply ana
demand is largely responsible for the
cost of living problem, Mr.. Jordon
thinks. The cruX Of the food ques-
ton lies in the fact that the law OF
supply and demand has not been al
lowed to follow its natural course he
said. Demand for food is not Varia |
BILE. but the supply has been manipu- |
lated to serve selfish ends. Allow as
much freedom for the operation OF |
the supply as for thed emand, and prices .
must eventually reach their proper
level"

cation for the republican presidential /
nomination next year, and that Sena-
tor James u. Phelan. democrat, is !.
