LAMB SALE WAS
QUITE A SUCCESS
Local Bidding Being Low County
Agent Patrick Ships Two Car
Loads to the Markets.

The lamb sale Saturday was quite
a success despite the busy time with
the farmers. A total of 1876 lambs
and sheep were brought in for the
sale. Mr.. R. P. Hite, Specialist in
Sheep Husbandry, from the Division
Of Extension, Knoxville, Tenn, was
present to grade the lambs. Mr.. e.
O. Pate of the Farm Development Blu
reau Of Memphis was also here to
assist with the grading and to help
to determine market values. This is
Mr.. Pate's second visit to Paris, hay
| ing assisted in the shipping Of a car
of hogs about month ago. Mr.. Pate
is put out by the wide awake business
men of Memphis to help the farmers
with their marketing problems. He
sees a great future in cooperative
shipping of livestock in Henry coun-
ty.
/ Mr.. Hite is we'll versed in better
methods of sheep raising. 1t was his
opinion that all of our flock should
by better bucks. He is also a great
believer in green winter pastures fol
| sheep.
A number of buyers were on the
grounds and in the early part of the
day it was generally thought that the
: lambs would sell for good price or
the local market. Several bids were
made, the highest being Is for No.
1l.75 for No. 2, 6 for weathers, 5 fol
old ewes, and 5 for bucks. This bic
was not considered high enough ant
the lambs were shipped.
The shipment left Paris at II p m
Saturday night and reached st. Loui
in good condition at 400 a. m. Mon
day. They were placed on the yards
early and sold right off at 1850. On
ly three other lots of lambs sold OF
the st. Louis market at the same
price. This is quite distinction fol
Henry county lambs to top the st

Nineteen farmers consigned to tn,
sale. Consignments running all tn,
way from one to twenty-three, Mr.
A. T. Marshall making the smalles
consignment and Mr.. w. F. Boale,
the largest. The lambs showed ex

Paris Wins Ball Game.

The Sabbath afternoon ball game
wa swon by Paris, the result of the
Suggest being 20 to 8 in favor of
Paris. Moore and Berry took care
of the firing line for the local boys,
and Downs and Hagrrove for the Wis
i,o1s. Almo took the lead in the
first inning by putting four men a.
cross the pan and three more in the
second. They did not score again
until the sixth inning when two runs
crossed the home plate, thus ending
the scoring TO rthe ambitious visitors.
1t was not however, until the eighth
inning that the local boys clinched
the game, when the put IL tallies
over after the Almo pitcher weaken
ed and gave free passes to the first
sack to four men and allowed hit
for three bags, another for two bags,
and four singles. Chambers and
Berry at the bat twice in this inning
each drew a pass both times at the
bat. The eighth concluded the
smuggling, and likewise the batting for
the local boys who had the last turn
because the visitors failed to come
back in their half of the ninth.
The lineup for Paris was Dinwid-
die, Moore, N. Odom, E. Odom, Berry,
Parkhill, Chambers, Wigs, and Mi
nor.
The net of an arranged series of
Sunday games will be played here
with Huntingdon on next Sunday af-
ternoon, when Moore will again climb
the mound for the home team and
Berry will do the receiving. Tom
Parkhill, veteran first sack man will
again be allowed to play next Sun
day, notwithstanding his long perod
of baseball vacation resulting in his
striking out twice in the critical 9Th
last Sunday. +

 The sucker turned to the man be- side him and said: Did you see that?"
 "See what?" asked the man.
 Why, that fellow dealt himself three aces from the bottom of the deck" said the sucker.

MANY NEWLY RICH
 AMONG GERMANS

BRUSSELS. - Though Germany may cry poverty, she counts among her citizens many newly rich, says a Belgian newspaper. Quoting the Voice of the People, of Frankfort, the newspaper declares that, in 1917, 421 Germans admitted revenue of more than a million of marks. The following year their number was in- creased to 504.
 As to the farmers, the paper says they do not know what to do with their money. The savings banks in Hesse were obliged to reduce to 2 percent the interest on deposits ex- ceeding 200 marks.

Most of the governmept-owned shops are con ducted by ex-soldiers on commis, sion basis. Management of these stores is awarded as a sort of pen sion substitute.

GRAFT CAUSES SOVIET LEADERS
 ID LOSE POWER

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN GERMANY -Sidelights on the trend of events in Soviet Russia, indicating that internal dissension i in the Bolshevik ranks is sapping the power of the Soviet leaders, are contained in the report of a sol- diers' and sailors conference, de- tails of which recently reached Am erican headquarters. The confer ence was held in Petrograd in the summer and much dissatisfaction at conditions was displayed by the SOL diers, who charged that officers en- joyed special privileges and that af- fairs generally were worse than they had been under the rule of the former emperor.
 Portions of the report read: The convention of the support CTS of the Red guard and the sailors, held in Petrograd, was at- i tended by several thousand from
 the army and the fleet. The min utes show that the commanders and
 the war commissioners still take ad-
 vantage of their office. and al
 though members of the communist party, are ever trying to secure
 special privileges. The soldiers and
 sailors were indignant because of
 the increase in pay of the con-
 manders and declared that condi- tions were worse now than those that prevailed under the regime of the emperor. They demanded that
 the pay be equal for all, whether
 the soldier be a private or a gen eral.
 i Complaints were made against
 the conditions of the barracks, be-
 cause no repairs were made anl
 the funds appropriated for this pur-
 pose went into the pockets of the
 high officials. The condition of the hospitals is still more deplorable ! There are no doctors or medicine
 and those really sick or wounded
 have to shift the best they can for themselves. The worst problem Of tall is to provide for the families of soldiers in the field. Nothing is done for them and the money for
 them also disappears in the pockets
