John r. Pinkerton.

John Ryland Pinkerton, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. Pinkerton,
of Hillsboro, died at the family
home on West Main Street, Sun
day morning, Nov. 16, 1919, af-
ter an illness of a week. He was
born at Greeley, Nebraska, Jan.
2, 1904, and with parents came
to Hillsboro in 1915. He is sur
vived by his parents and two
brothers, Harold, aged 13, and
Duane, aged 8, and sister, Cor
nelia, aged II.
Lis father is the Western Uu-
ion operator at the city station,
Southern Pacific.
He was a popular youth, am
bilious beyond his strength, and
had a host of friends in the city.
For several months prior to EN-
tering school this Fall, he work
ed for the Reynolds & Parks
grocery, and about three weeks
ago was appointed to handle the
evening Journal in this city
The funeral took place Mon
day afternoon, at 2:30, from the
NJ. e. Church, Rev. Walton
Skipworth conducting the ser
vices, with Undertaken Timber
in charge. There was profus-
ion of flowers, indicative of the
high esteem in which the High
School student was held by the
High School. The pail bearers
were classmates.
Rarely was it the lot of a
, young man to have so high re-
gard in his community, and one
who was close to him in his
school work has written the fol
lowing eulogy on his life:
"Altho John Ryland Pinker-
ton had lived in Hillsboro only
a portion of his short life, he
had endeared himself to all with

B0URCES PAYS
 HIGH HONOR TO
 FOUR AMERICANS
Three "Non- Cons" of Army and K. of c. Worker
 Made Citizens.

Bourges, France-Seldom in the history of the French Republic has native of a foreign land been given the honorary title of citizen" of any municipality. English cities often have conferred the freedom" title upon distinguished persons: but in France such a recognition is rare. When it has been granted it has generally been only to the very prominent men; for istance: as when President Wilson was recently made a citizen of Paris.
 But at Bourges, in the Department of the Cher, four Americans, one welfare worker and the others non- commissioned Army officers have just been elected ''citizens de Bourges'' by the municipal councils for their et- forts in promoting friendship between the French and American residents of that city. They are: c. J. Callahan secretary of the local Knights of Col umbus organization, who. in civil life, is boxing commissioner for the city of Toledo, O., Sergt Francis Sinclair; Sergt Lawrence J. Weidmann of s9 Smith street, Roxbury, Boston, former Boston newspaper man, and Sergt William F. Wragg, all of the Central Records Office, Battalion A. S. c.
 It was while The three soldiers were respectively managing editcr, news editor and business manager of "The Cro'' (the official newspaper for the United States troops at Bourges) that these men came into close contact with the people of this city.
 Through news articles, editorials and business relations. they constantly worked quietly in building up a stron- ger feeling of friendship between the French and Americans. So successful were their efforts that the awarding of citizenship to them was planned and carried out by the municipal au- thorities.
 Mir. Callahan, on the other hand, created the same feeling by his vel fare work. While the K. of c. club rooms were always open to French soldiers, his most remarkable success in arranging two great union services for French and American people was the outstanding feature of his work.
 On Thanksgiving Day, 1918, a sol emn high military mass, giving thanks for the cessation of hostilities, drew 10000 people to the huge Cathedral of Saint Etienne. Again last Easter Day, a similar service was conduct ed.
 
 present being continued in the pro- duction of ''The Battle of Bourges," !" a 25O-page, illustrated book, describ- ing the work of the Central Records and Central Postoffices at Bourges. This volume will contain an article by Gen. de Riols de Fonclare, com manding the eighth French region, and another by the Mayor of the city. Photographs of each of these men will be printed. An historical ar ticIe on Bourges will aid Americans to improve their knowledge of that city.
 In commenting upon their newly acquired citizenship these men declare that while America is their native land, they have found her true sis ter in the French republic. Their ad- admiration evinced by their coming to France to aid in crushing the com mon enemy has now grown to such a point that they have a devout desire to see France benefit extensively by the peace just signed.

NUTMEG STATE SIXTH IN WAR
 STAMP SALES

Hartford, Aug. 19-Figures receiv- ed by the Connecticut War Savings Committee from the Savings Division of the Treasury Department show that Connecticut was ninth among all the states of the Union in per capita sales of Thrift and War Savings Stamps during the month of June, and 21st for the six months ending June 30. The total sales in this state. for June were SSO,1S716, and for the six months, S1,171,966.75. Connecticut's per capita investment in June was six cents; for the six months, 1t was 90 cents. Figures for July have not yet been compiled, it is understood.
 The report shows that sales of Thrift and War Savings Stamps throughout the entire United States in June amounted to s4,9O5, ,532.65, the per capita average being six cents. During the six months. the entire country purchased S9,529,- 412.SS.
 The Connecticut War Savings Com mittee is making plans for intensive work next month in the schools, fac tories and other mediums. Particular attention will be given to schools with the idea of teaching children the advantages of savings and wise investment so that the lesson will r main with them throughout their lives.

PADEREWSKPS
 HAIRCUT PROVES
 BASE FALSEHOOD

Philadelphia, Aug. 19.-If a series of new Polish postage stamps. which has just reached this city is the latest issued by that new republic. then the report that Premier Paderewski has had his hair cut is a false alarm. Ac- cepting this premise, the statesman virtuoso at the most has indulged in the luxury of "a lill'' trim" And even that is doubtful.
 Six stamps. one of which bears the likeness of the great pianist and pa triot have been received hy Dr. Sam uel J. Gittelson, an ardent philatelist. The stamps are said to be the first of the kind to reach this country
 Now. as far as the abridgement of Paderewski's well known mane is con- cerned: it IS believed that admirers of the worlds foremost pianist who used to simply dote on his wonderful locks" need have no fear regarding g their fate at the hands Of a cruel Polish barber.

PROSPERITY FOR NEGROES UPON
 RETURN SOUTH
Farmers and Planters of Dixie Willing To Pay
 Transportation.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug. 19.-CCorres- pondence of The Associated Press) - Plenty of farm and mill work, better wages than ever before paid and improved living conditions await Southern negroes who have gone to the North and whe are said to be clamoring to return to the South, ac- cording to employers here.
 Southern farmers and plantation owners want the Southern negroes back. If there were some method of getting in touch with them it is declared the expense of their return to Dixie would be willingly borne. This will hold especially true for the next few weeks, because there IS need of negroes who know how to take care of the cotton crop.
 But these employers say they do not want northern-born and reared negroes. They would prefer to bring in foreign labor, they assert.
 "We would not hesitate 10 pay the expenses of a hundred or more ne groes from Chicago or other Northern cities to our place if we can geJ Southern negroes, particularly negroes who have gone from Mississippi, Ar kansas and Tennessee" said A. C.. Lange, vice president and genera: manager of the Chicago Mill and Lumber Company, which owns more than 7O,OO0 acres of timber and agri- cultural lands in Northeastern Ar kansas. "I think 1t is safe to say that every Southern negro in the North would be brought back without expense to him if Southern farmers and plantation owners knew where and how to get in touch with the Southern-born. We don't want and will not have Northern negroes"

CONDITION OF
 MRS. BURR IS VERY CRITICAL

Small hope is held out for the re- covery of Mrs. William H. Burr, 45, of Greenfield Hill, who is in the Nor walk hospital suffering from a sell inflicted bullet wound in the right side of the head. Mrs. Burr, who is a well known resident of Greenfield Hill, shot herself with a .32 calibre revolver, Saturday night, at Roton Point park, near Norwalk. It is b. lieved that the woman committed the act while in a fit of mental depres- sion.
 Mir and Mrs. Burr, their daughter. Evelyn and another woman, were in the party which motored to Ro- ton Point, Saturday night. Imme- diately after the rest of the party had left the machine. Mrs. Burr drew a revolver from her coat pocket. press d the muzzle against her night tenn pie and pulled the trigger.
 The injured womap was rushed to he Norwalk hospital immediately af- ter the shooting. Her condition to- day is said to be extremely critical.

What to Use and Avoid
 On Faces That Perspire

Skin. to be healthy, must breathe. It also must perspire-must expel, through the pores, its share of the body's waste material. Certain creams and powders clog the pores, interfering both with elimina tion and breathing, especially during the heat ed period. If more women under stood this. there would be fewer self ruined complexiors. If they would use ordinary mercolized wax instead of cosmetics they would have healthy complexions. This remarkable sub stance actually absorbs a bad skin. also unclogging the pores. Result: The fresher, younger under-skin is permitted to breathe and to show it. self The exquisite new complexion gradually peeps out. one free from any appearance of artificiality.
 Obtain an ounce of mercolized wax from your druggist and try 1t. Apply nightly like cold cream for a week or two, washing 1t off mornings. There's nothing quite so good for an over red, tanned or frc-kled face.-Adv.

lpISH QUESTION
 WAS LIGHTED
 CENTURIES AGO

The Irish question, not yet answer ed, that is rufflins the brows of statesmen today, was lighted long before Saint Patrick climbed the Hill of Tara in 460 A. D., and introduced Christianity into Ireland, where the sacred fires of the Feast of Beltane, or the Sun, had been lighted, and where pagan solemnities were being held in the Palace of Tara, the capi- to1 and noted seat of learning of the early Irish Kings. The Hill of Tara was the focal point of those kings. Their halls of assembly. of Judica- ture, their Parliament, and the meet ing place of poets, historians, and chronicles.
 The Lia Fail or Stone of Destiny, the oldest thing in the British Isles, on which the early Irish Kings sat at their coronation, stood for centuries in the midst of Tara's Hill It was removed by Fergus, the first Scottish King, 513 A. D., from Ireland to Scot land; following upon this, removed by Kenneth II. of Scotland to Scone in Scotland; thereafter, removed by Edward l. of England. to London in 1926. It now forms part of the Cor onation Chair in Westminster Abbey, in which for eight centuries the sov- ereigns of England have been crowned. So literally. England sits upon the Irish question.
 Today, August 19, throughout Ire land is the Festival of St. Cumin, Bishop of the early Irish church in the seventh century. The Green Isle was called Fire or Erin, viz, Land of the Saints. Its stone crosses, its holy wells, it's ruined monasteries, speak of the devotion of Erin's faith full pastors of her early church, of which St. Cumin was a shining light.
