Red Cross News
OF Northern Division

Clowns, formerly circus laugh max
ers, are now educators, according to
Or Mable s. Ulrich, Director OF Pub
lie Health Service of the Northern Dr.
vision OF the Red Cross, who uses a
whole family OF clowns to do propa-
ganda for dental, infant welfare or
r.utritional clinics, given under the
auspices Of her department.
The shortage of nurses, trained to
do public health work with children,
is so serious hat Red Cross officials
have devised plans TO give children
health instructions through the grade
teacher. Through the universal ap-
real of the clown the attention of
children Is attracted and they uncon-
seiousIy absorb a few fundamental ed
a .ational principles while they are be-
ing entertained.
II is much more interesting to have
a clown weigh and measure a child
at a clinic, to have a clown himself
present them with a little tag with his
picture on it giving their height and
z and present weight and what their
weight should be. He impresses on
them the importance of the health card
asks them to save 1t for their
teacher or school nurse in the fall.
He assists the nurse who is in charge
CT the clinic and who keeps a dupli-
cate record of the child's measure
ments. In this way he accomplishes
another; he stimulates the interest OF
the teacher as we'll as the child.
When there Is no crowd at the REQ
Cross booth at the Fair grounds, the
clown makes a tour of the ground
with an ever increasing horde of chill
dren at his heels. He brings them
INTO the clinic where they hear his
health talk and where the nurse tests
them and gives them advice. Moth
ers and fathers are amused at his IN
tics, which call to them the Importance
os the clinics The National Child
Organization, the Woman's
Council and the Red Cross
through their health work have made
the clown not only an entertainer but
an instructor.

and then go over the othed half, after
which they make a survey Of the eff

tour of that territory. BY their work
they are putting thousands or acres

RICHMOND MAY BE
IN ANOTHER LEAGUE
If Local Fans Evince Enough In
terest To Subscribe TIC Sum
To Have A Team

Richmond is being cleft out" by
base ball men on the proposition
to revive the old Blue Grass Lea
que next season. John A. Spin
ney, the we'll known sporting ex-
pert of Cincinnati, has written M
c. Kellogg here, on the subject,
and those to whom Mr.. Kellogg
has mentioned the subject, ex-
press themselves as willing to
contribute toward a team in Rich
mond in the event that the league
is reorganized. A number of well
known men have suggested that
some we'll known men like Frank
Barnett, who has the. confidence
of all, see what can be done to-
ward securing a substatial sum by
subscription for the purpose of
backing a team here The letter
from Mr.. Spinney to Mr.. Kellogg
will be of interest and follows:
Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov. 5. 1920.
Kellogg Grocery Co., Richmond, Ky
My Dear Mr.. Kellogg: / am taking
the liberty of writing you in regard
to baseball meeting that is to be
held at the Phoenix hotel on the night
of November Is, and would be pleas
ed to hear from you in reference to
attending same or having some one
to represent Richmond.
Possibly you have not taken much
interest in the game since the old
Blue Grass league disbanded, and do
not realize there is big boom on n
the smaller towns throughout the
country, and it is for this reason thai
several gentlemen from Winchester
Lexington and Nicholasville have re-
quested me to use my best efforts &c
try to reorganize the Blue Grass
league for next year, and knowing
that you have always taken grea'
interest in the game in the past, hope
you will be able to attend this meet
ing on the 18th inst.
There is some talk of consolidating
the K. I. T. league with four of the
old blue grass towns, such as Mays
vile, Winchester and Lexington. Ash
land is also to be added, but it is my
opinion that the railroad jumps would
be too expensive in a class D league,
but this matter will be brought up at
the meeting.
Thanking you for any interest you
may take in the above, ana hoping to
hear from you at an early date, re-
main, Very truly yours,
JOHN A. SPINNEY.

ANOTHER COLYER
ELECTED SHERIFF

News has just been received here
from far-off Torington, Wyoming, of
one Democratic victory in a county
usually strongly Republican. in which
a former Madison county young mar
played very prominent part. 1t was
the election as sheriff of Oliver ]
Colyer, son of Mr.. and Mrs. C. E
Colyer. The father is nephew O.
Messrs. HI. H. and r. W. Colyer, o.
this city, the former of whom served
IS sheriff of Madison county once fo,
four years, and the latter as deputy
sheriff for eight years. Another un-
Gle, D. A. Colyer, served as sheriff Of
Bates county, Missouri, so it would
not seem unusual for one of this pop
ular family to win office wherever he
goes after it. The pretty thing about
it, though, was the fact that younc
Colyer overturned large Republican
majority and defeated one of the mos,
prominent Republican politicians in
that section, thus demonstrating his
personal popularity among the peo-
pie where he lives, and who know him,
best.

The new WAY TO

The newly paved streets are be-
Washington, Nov. 9-An eXper-
iment in tobacco harvesting which
is said to have been successful in
saving millions of dollars, has
been tried in North Carolina, and
may prove to be worth the atten-
tion of tobacco growers in Ken
lucky. The United States De-
partment of Agriculture, in de
scribing the experiment, says:
GA saving Of from 81 ,OO0,CCO to
100000 has been effected by to-
bacco growers of Granville coun-
ty, N C, this year by the adoption
of a new method of harvesting.
"The new method makes both
ends of the plant work Instead
of cutting the stalks, as has been
the general practice in the old, old
belt district, the leaves are picked
from the stalk as fast as they rip
en-, working from, the lower leaves
upward.
"Under the old system the low
er leaves would be allowed to re-
main on the stalk until the top
ones were ripe, causing a loss OF
about Is per cent through deter
ioration of the lower leaves,
which make the best smoking to-
bacco.
"Under the new method it is
not necessary to top the plants
so low, making the leaves less
subject to 'wildhre.' The total
amount of work is little more, and
labor that otherwise could not be
used is available. Children from
10 years old up can be used for
picking the leaves"
Richard w. Bayliss, "a, well known
Bourmbon county farmer, died in a
Lexington hosjital after a short i'll
ness.
Weather conditions for the next
two months as predicted favor the
farmer and growing crops, it is said
and prospects are good for even bet
ter crops next yea if such could be
the case.
I Louisville police raided rs crap
games in one trip, which is not bad
for the city of Louisville.

GRAND
JURY IN SESSION
Avalanche Of Business Confronts
Body-Report May Be Made
Late Tuesday

One Of the questions regarding
the remainder of the session Of
the federal court is the number oi
cases resulting from the session
of the grand jury. There are more
than two score of cases to be in
vestigated.
District. Prosecuting Attorney
Charles Fenneil, who has beer
present since the first of the week
stated there was one of the 1arg.
est "batches of Investigations" ir
the history of the local court, and
the task before the jurors is ar
extensive one. However, it is be-
|lieved the first report will be
made late Tuesday and productive
of a number of indictments being
returned.
Whisky cases, it is said, pre-.
dominate; in fact, this represents
the bulk of the business with the
jurors at this time, and almost ev-
cry locality in this district is rep
resented The attendance at the
meetings Tuesday was equally as
great, if not moreso than Monday
The number sof witnesses sum-
moned is out of the ordinary. An
other unusual phase of the situa-
ton is the fact that very few de-
PENDANTS are accompanied by off
GERS, all practically having been
able to give bond There are men
charged with the most serious of
fenses regarding whisky at liber-
ty, and many are accompanied by
from one to three attorneys.
The Moore distillery case al
VanArsdali, in Mercer county
which has furnished a number OF
witnesses, is known to be one OF
the matters being given attention
upon the part Of the grand jury
during the early stages, and it is
expected this will terminate by
the middle of the week. Judge
Cochran has expressed a desire
that these witnesses be examined
and the result be brought to his
attention as soon as possible. This
work was started Tuesday morn
ing.
The jurors, headed by a Rich
mond man, are as follows:
E. L.. Cobb, foreman, Rich.

COAL CASES GO over
TO JANUARY TERM
Federal Judge Says Palmer Has
Come Mighty Close To Con-
tempt of Court

Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 9.-Trial of
the soft coal conspiracy cases against
125 operators and miners in Indiana,
Illinois, Ohio and western Pennsylva-
MIA was continued Monday util Janu-
airy 10 by Federal Judge A. B. An
derson.
When the cases were called for trial
government counsel said it was not
ready to proceed and Judge Anderson
Immediately undertook ain investiga-
tion of Attorney General Palmer's
connection with them, an effort
being made to learn what orders the
attorney general had given regarding
the scope of the governments evil
dence.
In setting January 10 as the date
for the trials Judge Anderson de-
clared that meanwhile he would "at
least find out whether we are gov
erned by law or by person." His re-
mark was intended apparently to ap-
ply to Mr.. Palmer, whose actions, the
judge also asserted, were strangely
close TO the compromising OF felony
and dangerously near contempt of
court"
Attorney General Palmer's orders
not to use certain evidence in the soft
coal conspiracy cases were interpret
cd as possibly nullifying the govern
ment's case by attorneys for the gov
eminent in the case, testifying before
Judge Anderson.
C. B. Ames, former chief assistant
attorney general, appearing as a
friend of MI. Palmer however, declar-
ed that the attoney generals instruc-
tions had been misunderstood gener-
ally and that evidence be ordered ex-
cluded was that relating for period
of time covered by the conspiracy in

RELIGIOUS Cult
GAINING RECRUITS

Representatives of the religious cult
known as the Seven Day Adventists

there are number of emissaries be-
ing sent here from other parts of the
state. 1t is potable they will begin
a series of meetings within short
time, since they are seeking a suit
able location for meeting. There
are regular meetings being held in
various parts of the city at private
residences at this time. While not
generally known, it is . fact that
there are many who are now recog-
nizing the lines drawn by this be-
lief, and are observing the days ac-
cordingly. 1t is said there have been
many recruits added during the last
ten days. Many of those Embracing
this belief are said to have decided
to observe the regular seven day cal

NO CONTEST Seen
IN BECKHAM RACE

While questioning the large ma
jorities given Richard P. Ernst,
republican Senator-elect, by 18th
district counties, enabling him to
emerge victorious in his race with
u. c. w. Beckham, no contest
over Tuesdays election was ex-
Ipected by democratic leaders, says
the Louisville Times.
They pointed out that in the
event of a contest nothing would
be tried before a republican Sen
Iate.
They reiterated charges made
by John L. Grayot, Democratic
State Campaign Chairman, that
majorities, obtained for Mr.. Ernst
in Eastern Kentucky counties
were obtained through "monu-
mental frauds" but it is the gen
eral poinion that nothing can be
done to offset the frauds.
1t is believed by many that Mr.
Beckham will congratulate Mr.
Ernst on his victory" within d
few days, thus ending the barrage
of charges and counter-charges.
Prosecution in federal court
some democrats say, might go a
long way to breaking up the
practice of holding back returns
in the mountains, but it will not
rain for Senator Bcckham
