Tho rapid approach of the general
elections brings the natural query rs
20 Just what the prospective voter must
DO In the matter Of registration In
order to BE- eligible to cast his ballot
at that time. The answer Is simple
He must make sure that his name Is
on the ofiicial registration list Some
names will already be there without
any action of the citizen. but inasmuch
a. there II always the possibility OF
error In the copying Of names. etc. the
only safe policy to follow is to look
over the registration list and make
sure that ones name 10 there. For a
specified length Of time the registra-
tion books will be open TO public in
spection at the several registration
places Of the county.
Information elected from the Office OF
the county clerk and OF the attorney
general of the state is to the effect
that the first registration lists for the
election this fall will be made up from
the lists of those who voted in the gen.
eral election Of 1918. 1t should be
borne In mind that the citizen must
have voted Mt this election: II he mere
ly registered and for some reason
failed to vote his name will not be
carried over and he must reregister.

Trapshooters of 1919

Arie. by breaking 80 straight at &C.
lumbia, s. c., went in the lead by a
fraction Of a point. This brought
them to the last shoot of the year. at
Birmingham, Ala, Inc both shooters
participated.
Arie missed one target in 1870, his
95th, and Henderson missed two, ono
in his last event, and that miss cost
him the leadership, and the glory
that goes with it. But Henderson, has
the satisfaction in knowing he put
up a great; scrap for the laurel
wreath.
Not only does Arie close the year
as high average leader, but he. also
gets credit for the longest run OF the
year bygan amateur-422. And as the
Iilini' shooter won the. Illinois state
championship. the Hercules all-round

i" NNERCIFUL GOD, it's all true

"NNERCIFUL GOD, it's all true
AVA Nobody has ever told the
whole truth! Nobody could ="
Thus Eleanor Franklin Egan, in the
Saturday Evening Post, quotes How
ard Heinz of Pittsburgh, Herbert
Hoover's representative in the Near
East, on the real conditions in Arme-
MIA as he saw them with his own eyes.
Mr.. Heinz had been one of those
who had believed the stories of star
walton and death in Armenia had been
exaggerated. Not until he went HIM
self to the Caucasus did his views
change. Then he was shaken to the
foundation Of his soul by what he saw.
Fearful! Awful i Horrible! Unbe-
lievable!' are some of the adjectives
Mrs. Egan says must be used in speak
ing of conditions in the Near East,
where Near East Relief, l Madison
Avenue, New York, supported by con-
tributions from the American people,
is conducting the only organized effort
to save the lives of these utterly desti-
tute millions. Everything she saw and
heard justified the necessity for quick
and generous aid from America. Her
story of what she witnessed re-en
forces the call of the Near East Re-
lief for aid for stricken Armenia.
"'The Hunger grin is everywhere
evident" Mrs. Egan writes, "The
pitiful hundreds seemed to me to be
weeping constantly. Not profoundly
as in grief, but whimperingly, ap-
pealingly as in unbearable physical
distress. A terrible population I'm
speakably filthy and characterization

throngs milling from place to place.
children crying aloud, women sobbing
In broken inarticulate lamentation;
men utterly hopeless and reduced to
staggering weakness, needless of the
tears rolling down their dirt-streaked
faces"
That is her picture Of the Arme
mans most in evidence in Armenia.
These are the thrOngs. Then she
turns to the mobS. Large numbers

Outstretched in wolfish duplication

Potato Price Nearly TrebIed.

That the price paid to growers of
Wisconsin potatoes has more than
doubled within four months, and is
almost three times as high as in Janu-
airy Of last year, is the report rem
dered by the state division of mar
kets. The report states:
"The present market price of pota-
toes is the reflection of the fact that
the price paid to potato growers in
Wisconsin is from 220 per cent to 234
per cent higher than tie seasons

and from 275 per cent to 293 per cent
higher than at this time last year.
''The price paid to growers at Wau-
paca, the principal shipping point of
Wisconsin, was 81. Is on September 80,
1919, and 1886 on Jan. q, 1920. This
price is per hundred pounds. A bushel
of potatoes weighs go pounds. Stated
as a quotation, the price increased
from S1O5 to S2O1 bushel between
the above dates. The price paid to
growers on January 81, last year, was
S1.40 hundred pounds, or "a cents a
bushel, compared with 1885 a hun
