BROUGHT BACK TOWN CRlER
Ancient Official Had Brief Day Of
GLORY When Only Daily News
paper Was Burned Out.

The connection between the town
crier and the newspaper was demon
strated recently when the plant of the
Macon (Mo.) Daily Chronicle-H Herald.
the only daily newspaper in the coun-
ty, was so badly damaged by hre Il
was put out or commission for several
weeks. according to the Fourth Es-
tate.
Some important announcements
were waitine-a big stock sale, pub
lie meeting. features al the movie
shows and special sales by the
merchants There were weekly pa
pers, but these would not be out In
time
Then someone thought Of Dick Nc
Kinney, the old town crier. who had
been on the job for decade. and
whose retirement had been the cause
OF much storiei sentiment as indica'
tive OF the passage OF the old to the
modern method which came with the
daily newspaper
Dick said he was old and rheu-
maticky, and that his voice was not
what It used to be. but they dug him
up bell. gave him megaphone and
told him to go out and tell the people
what was coming.
The old town crier did the best he
could but II was evident that years
had weakened his vocal organs. so
that the bell was the most valuable
feature of his service.
While the daily paper was out Of
commission the town slipped back a
decade or more. No market reports,
nothing about the weather. nothing
from the conventions. no announce
ments Of choir practice and socials.
The town crier was all In when the
paper resumed publication and took
his place. But. while his resurrection
was brief. the town crier came into
sufh fame as he had never known In
his previous humble history.

CREDIT THE FEDERAL
RESERVE SYSTEM.

Reports of bank earnings for the
year 1919, just following the close OF
q war that rocked the world for al
most q decade. are a new and elo-
Quent tribute 10 the Federal Reserve
system under which the financial in.
stitutions OF the country have been
operating since 1914. That there
should have been no failures or pan
les or depression in period when
the country was turning from the bus
mess OF war TO the pursuits OF peace
when the immense debts incurred In
the conflict with Germany were mt
their maximum; when four millions
Of men were being replaced In the
Industries from which they were
drawn to ill the army and navy. Is
without parallel. but that this very
time was one OF prosperity and sound
ness beyond comparisons Is no less
than marvellous.
Who were the critics Of the Federal
Reserve system when Il was In pro-
cess Of creation and who would pro.
pore It's ACKNOWLEDGMENT now In the
