Froug Celebrates 11th Anniversary
 With Huge Sale

Ten years ago l.. Froug came to Pine Bluff and opened up with small stock of merchandise, and today he celebrates his eleventh anniversary by starting sale of more than $200,- 900 worth of merchandise. One of his reasons is that he may help Pine Bluff reduce the high cost of living.
 The sale begins at 8:30 o'clock this morning, and the anniversary cele- bration will be staged with amazing bargains in the annex at 300 Main street and the main store.
 The sale will be extensively adver- tised and, as usual, will be put over the top Con the jump"
 MT. Froug owns several other stores in other cities. The Pine Bluff store was opened as a trial, and has proved so highly satisfactory that plans have been under way by MT. Froug for the erection here of a big department store of several stories, and it is ex- pected that the business here will be enlarged on a much greater scale than during the past few years.
 MT. Froug evidently believes in ad- vertising, as he doesn't hesitate to plank down the kale for four solid pages of advertising in a medium like The Graphic.

Boston Speaker Declares They ~.' are Advocates of Whole
 sale Robbery

"Bolshevism: What It Is and the Remedy for It." was the subject Of a strong address by David Goldstein ata Central High school last night befoye large audience. The speaker appeared under the auspices of Pine Bluff Council No. 1153, Knights of Columbus. and was introduced to the audience by Judge E. J. Kerwin, state deputy. Quite a number of the mem bers of the local post of the Ameri- can Legion were present.
 In discussing bolshevism the speak CT stated that "bolshevism" is Rus sian word, meaning majority. Bol- shevism is the nickname of socialism put into practice, he added The two are one and inseparab ble, and both are the result of dwarfed, radica! think ing.
 "The Knights of Columbus, six hundred thousand strong. are not go- ing to stand idle and see the red rag wave and the Star Spangled Banner trampled in the dust bv radicals" he said. "Even before the war the Knights of Columbus were fighting radicalism, and now they are able to wage the fight anew. More than one hundred thousand of the members of our order rendered valiant service in the world war and those who have re- turned have come home with a newer vision of the menace of reptile that is eating out the heart of Columbia
 Once Socialist.
 "When socialism is in operation" the speaker continued, "it is nothing but wholesale robbery. for is not the teaching, as set forth bv the Russian champions of it. the unlawful taking of lands and other property from rirhtful owners ?" He. read from a volume written bv himself. excerpts from the bolshevistic nresent-day con- stitution of Russia. In this were set forth how land is taken away from the peasants, and how free love is ad- vocatted, together with other innova- tions the speaker declared were dead- ly to the morals of civilization.
 MT: Goldstein discussed socialism in the family and told how this phase of the subject had especially attracted him. He finally behame member of the socialist party in the state of Massachusetts a number of years ago. However, after three years of social ism, he states. he saw that the free love advocated, and other disastrous measures, were tending to undermine civilization and almost unseat God from his throne, hence he renounced the party, went into the Catholic church IS years ago. and ever since has been one of the bitterest foes of socialism. He has profited from his three years of socialism, he says, and is able to fight the spread of it better now.
 MT. Goldstein is citizen of Boston, has given wide study to the subject of bolshevism, and has written num- Der of books on the subject. He is one of the four national lecturers of the "Knights of Columbus in the United States.
