A CLEVER TRICK
BY WHICH THIEF
ENTERING HOMES
SHED D 0 U B 7 S
MR. JOHN PETERSON CATCHES
A MA NTRYING TO ENTER HIS
HOME AND IS HANDED NOTE
ASKING A LOAN; HE HAD SEW
ERAL SUCH NOTES.

At his home yesterday evening Mr..
John Peterson of the Peterson Pro-
duce Company, while reading the ev-
ching newspaper, was attracted to the
back part of the house by the noise
Of someone trying the door, as if try
ing to enter. Going to that door Mr..
Peterson let him fuss awhile, and then
opening the door asked him what he
wanted. The man handed him a note
which read that someone was sick and
wanted a dollar and half. The writ
err had got in late with the wood, but
would bring it in the morning and re-
raw. The note was addressed to Mrs
Peterson. On the face of it the mat
ter was suspicious, as no wood had
been engaged. So Mr.. Peterson phnned
the police station and delivered the
man there.
Search of the suspect developed him
to be fixed with two more similar
notes, one addressed to Reverend Fa-
Their Mateo of Sacred Heart Church,
the other to George Psomas. 1t is
suspected the notes were intended as
blinds with which to divert SUSPICION
if the party bearing them should be
caught in his effort at entering a
house. and that he had all three homes
marked for visitation.

REVIVAL MEETING
AT THE BAPTIST
CHURCH
THE EVANGELIST TREATS OF
BAPTISM FROM THE STAND
POINT OF THAT DENOMINA-
TON; AN INTERESTING DIS
COURSE.

On Monday night Evangelist Chap
pell preached on Baptism" taking fol-
his text Mark 1:9, "Jesus was baptiz-
ed of John in Jordan"
The preacher emphasized the facts
that God has made every duty plain,
quoting Luke 1:3, 4, and has made ev-
cry duty mandatory, quoting Deut. IL
:32 and End Peter 2:21.
He also contended that baptism is
the same now as it was when Jesus
was baptized, God never having
changed it, and forbade man to.
whatsoever thing command you to
observe to do them; thou shalt not
add thereto nor take therefrom,"
Deut. 1892.
Jesus showed Christians how to be
baptized by "Going down into the wa
ter and coming up out of the water
himself" God also settled the pres
ent religious dispute about baptism
by saying, "There is one Lord, one
faith and one baptism" Eph. As.
The difficulty over baptism arises
not out of the teaching of Gods word
but from the pride and disobedience
of men.
Tuesday night he will preach fu-
neral sermon. Would you like to hear
yours in life. Some buy their coffin,
others set up stones, but you may do
even better by hearing the funeral
sermon.
At the close of the Monday even
ing service the pastor, Rev. Gordon,
administered the ordinance of bap-
tism. 1t was very beautiful and i'm
pressive service. If you werenot there
you missed a great lesson.
1t is planned to make this the. big
week of the revival. Something good
at every service. You are urgently
invited to attend
Wednesday evening the subject will
be "Three Ways of Dealing With a
Wrong Door," or "The Scarlet Wom-
an"

JACK MULHALL AS A YOUNG
AMERICAN INVENTOR IN
A POWERFUL PICTURE PLAY
Has Part of Hero Who Saves Pretty
Belgian Girl and Finds Happi-
ness in Her Love.

HESS I1eT l1ONcs
"Whom the Gods Would Destroy
whiih will be seen at the Nogales
Theater tomorrow is a perturbation
of the startling events which lead q
girl and youth through an earthly
hell in their quest of happiness. The
world cataclysm just ended is the
background but the picture is by no
means war feature.
Jack Randall, the hero, is a young
American who has discovered an ex
rlosive which will revolution;Ze war
fare. Before he is able to bring it
to attention of his own government
secret agents of a foreign country
lake him across the seas On the rep
resentation that they wish to give
him an education in a university cvel
there.
H. w he meets a sweet little Belg;en
girl whose family has been destro. ed
by the relentless hordes of the Hun
which poured into her native land in
the summer of 1914, and which were
not stopped in their invasion If "the
frontier of freedom" is told in "Whom
the Gods Would Destroy"
The love affair of Jack Randall and
of Julie Matthew, the Belgian girl,
is kept always at the front of the
stage, and what of wars hideousness
is shown, is always caught from the
unusual angle, revealing vistas over
looked by the directors of pictures in
which war was the leading motive.
Jack Mulhall, one of the most mag
netic of the younger stars, was loan
ed by the Lasky forces to Macauley
Fhotopl;.ys, Inc, which made Whom
the Gods Would Destroy fl: the
leading part of Jack Randall. The
role of the Belgian girl is taken by
Pauline Starke, while the second fem
mime Part is played by Kathryn Ad-
ans.
Scenes in the picture, which was Il
year and half in the making, are
laid in small American city, Jacks
home in New York, in Berlin, in Hev-
erie, small Belgian town, and Paris,
where the League of Nations and the
peace conditions were drafted under
the direction of delegates of the Allied
powers.

WASHINGTON, November 4 -
That the situation in the coal fields

Roosevelt. His fault twas that he
was urging the passage of meat in
spection law to keep unfit meat off
the tables of the people. Roosevelt
won, and on June 80, when the fight
reached its climax, Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge arose in the United
States Senate and said:
"What thas been the history of that
group of men who run those packing
establishments 1t thas been a his
ory of utter defiance of law and of
public opinion But l say, and l say
it in all seriousness, that those pack
ers in Chicago have done more to adj
vance socialism and anarchism and
unrest and agitation than all the So
cialistic agitators who stand today
between the oceans"
In connection with this statement,
Chairman Colver reviewed the activ-
tiles of the Trade Commission to dis
prove the assertions of Senator Wat
sons personal defender, Senator Pen
rose of Pennsylvania. Penrose, in de-
Tending Watson, insisted that the
commission had been the subject OF
general attack from almost everyone
and had been ATTACKED in almost ev-
cry kind of profane language. Pen
roses statement, if conceded to have
been true, would have put the commits
sion in a very poor light, and Colver's
reply, therefore, could not have been
other than reply to both Watson and
Penrose.
The commission has had 1 ,453 COM
plants brought against business firms
throughout the country, he said. Com
petitors of these firms contended they
were being dealt with unfairly. At
ter examination, 724 of these cases
were dismissed; 339 are still in pro-
cess of preliminary investigation, and
in the remaining 800 cases the COM
mission has instituted formal proceed
ings. Of 20S complaints brought, on
Iy Is were dismissed because OF lack
of evidence. Except in these 208 cases
the contention of the government has
not been passed upon as yet.
"Of the remaining 1873 cases, the or
der of the commission to cease and
desist was issued, and here comes
what I believe to be one of the great
est examples of the inherent fairness
IF the American business man." said
Colver. 'For out of the 183 cases
where the business concern, after trial
and hearing, and after having brought
nome to it the consequences, often un-
of its conduct upon Compel
tors, 1876 of the respondents have vol
UNFAIRLY agreed to accept the order to
cease and stop the bad practice.
"Thus we find that the Federal
Trade Commission, seeking to admin
ister a fair and just law and dealing
with fair and just people in a spirit
of fairness and equity, finds a mini
mum of controversy and maximum
of accommodation"

Fl. M. Cottrell, Dr. $ P Weigart and Other Noted Experts to Attend the Denomination and Give Lectures On Up-to-date Farming Methods.

Through the efforts of our County Agent, Mir. H. P Wood a farm tract or demonstration by six different tract ors has been arranged and Dermott, owing to it's location, has been selected as the place of the demonstration.
 It Is conceded by not only our au- thorities on farming. but by most all practical farmers. that the tractor will in very short time supersede large percentage of mule. horse and man power on the farm. The saving, eff ciency and adaptability of tractors is known throughout the world. and while this particular part of the country has not quite kept step with other sections in regard to improved farm machinery, the interest which is shown every where in tractors proves that we are not very far behind in taking hold of mertorious improvements
 This demonstration Is given with the idea in view of giving everybody an opportunity to see tractors of different makes, types or styles work under the same conditions so as to make fair comparisons.
 Kansas City Macon. Ga, Memphis and other large cities have held simi. lar demonstrations This will. how ever, be the first show of it's kind ever held in Arkansas
 The tractors scheduled to participate in the Demonstration 90 far are the Cleveland, Emerson Fordson Inter national, Titan and Moline Universal
