Churchill Tells Story of Battle
 in Dardanelles

London, March s. Winston Churchill. who was first lord of the admiralty at the time of the Dardan- elles expedition, used to act as cen sor of the official communique giv- en out concerning that ill-fated cam paign. says Rear Admiral Sir Douglas Brownrigg. Sir Douglas was chief censor during the war and has entitled ''Indiscretions of the Naval Censor' One day Mr. Churchill said to the admiral. "for this business, l am chief censor. not you.
 "Mr. Churchill had knack for states. "He was also a bit of a gambler, that is, he would hold on to bit of bad news for time on the chance of getting a bit of good news to publish as an offset, and l must say that it not infrequently came off"
 Admiral Brownrigg used to visit the first lord in his bedroom at 9:15 radios that had been received during eHS hiS MI. SiiQtNhiii, iiS say ., "presented most extraordinary spectacle, perched up in huge bed with the whole of the counterpane Uttered with dispatch boxes, red and all colors, and stenographer sitting at the foot, Mr. Churchill himself with an enormous cigar in this mouth; glass of warm water on the table by his side, and writing pad on his knee. On one occasion he had a badly swollen face, and wit htwo turns of flannel bandage round it and scanty look escaping here and there. presented a truly extraordin- ary picture. The cigar, however, was still there"

kMIR'S pETR0THED
 SAW COB; NO ONE HAS SEEN HER SINCE
s100, 100000 Beauty Myster. iously Disappeared. is
 Sought Here

New York, March 8.-A tale of the thousand and second nights" was told i'll New York today by Ben Ma holnet, who proclaimed himself a Sheik of Arabia and brother of the Amir of Hedjaz.
 Ben Mohamet moved here today with six fctainers. His mission, he said. was a worldwide search for Sari, Turkish heiress, who the Sheik declared was plighted to marry the Amir.
 Sari, according to Ben Mahomet was last seen in Constantinople talk ing to sailor from an American warshlp which had put into that port How the Turkish maid was able to escape the vigilance of her nurse long enough to holF conservation was not explainedd by the Arabian chief tain, but after thi smeeting, 1t seems. Sari disappeared.
 Her father, Habahimo, grieved for the loss of his daughter, who was known the length of Turkey for her beauty and charity, died and left her $100 100000.
 When it was considered certain that Sari had left her native land, either voluntarily or with an ad- ductor, the Amir is said to have ask ed his brother, who studied at Cam bridge University in England to search for her and to spare no ex- pense. From Turkey the Sheik went ! to France, thence to Italy and Tan 9iers and finally set sail for the New World, arriving in New York via Halifax. Ben Mahomet am nounced that if detectives here had failed him, he would appeal to the government in Washington and learn what ship it was touched at Con- stantinople after the armistice, when ! Sari disappeared

BETTER DAY FOR EDUCATORS.

The New York Evening Post com menting on the fact that in none 0, the big "college drives" has the ii nancial goal been attained, remarks that even should these movements fail financially they will be sue cess in other ways, says the Com mercial Appeal. The interference k plain that the campaigns for in creased funds have aroused the gen. eral public. to the fact that the pro fcssors and instructors in these in stitutions are very human beings who have been done great injustice in the matter of remuneration fol their invaluable work. Public dis. cussion of this condition must in the end result in an improvement of the conditions of these educators.
 More people now appreciate what educators have to suffer and how in. sufficiently equipped are even oul greatest educational institutions The relationship between money and collegiate development has been es- tabIished. Colleges and their teach ing staffs. have been made more personal, more human. The neces- sity for the campaigns for funds was sclinched by the resignations of sev- eral professors who took other forms of employment in order to be self-supporting.
 The viewpoint of the nation with regard to teachers in our public schools evidently has been broadened In all sections of the country agita- lions are under way to provide bet ter pay for those who "teach the young idea how to shoot" In some pIaces this is taking the form of in e1xn,sd taxes. while in others the ,pnsy needed to increase teachers TT js being raised by public sub v Dl{ens Tho necessity for better

WEEKLY FINANCIAL

NEW YORK, Sept Is. = Sentiment tality. if not in more material sense. politics as expressed by the outcome of the Main election was regarded by impartial observers as the forecast in fluence of the week in the financial markets.
 Other factors which gave moment um to the active trading and higher range of prices included further prom ising crop prospects and more liberal offerings of time money. loans into 1921 being made at the unusually low rate of eight per cent on strictly first grade collateral.
 There were not developments in the general monetary situation. however to justify the belief that credits as whole would soon relax. The firm policy of the federal reserve board. as enunciated by Governor Harding in re- sponse to the petition of important cotton interests offered little hope of early reduction of interests and redis- count rates.
 Improvement in foreign exchange was most pronounced in remittances to London and Paris. Smaller offsr- ings of sterling bills and indications of an adjustment of the labor crisis in England and Italy helped to stabilize rates.
 Entry of general business into the autumn season was attended by con fusing conditions and conflicting re- ports respecting trade outlook. Or ders for fabricated steel and kindred products were subject to more cancel lations and suspension of common div idends by the Cudahy Packing and National Cloak and Suit company sug- gested greater conservatism in varied lines of industry
 In the stock market, pools devoted the bullish activities largely to oils and rails. the former displaying espe- cial strength. Announcement of the proposed segregation of the Delaware, Lackawana and Western properties naturally gave rise to rumors Of sim liar action by other coal roads
 Foreign issues were conspicuous in the enlarged bond dealings, the new French eight per cent leading at a premium of 2% per cent and the An slo-French lives also rising fraction ally above par.

Mining and Endncial Netus
 REVIEW LEASED
STOCKS AND BONDS

NEW YORK, Sept IS. Stocks week end selling for profits and set tlement of speculative accounts but the trend for the most part was again higher.
 Rails dominated the session but the strength was not altogether confined to coalers. Nickel Plate." St. Louis and San Francisco and New Orleans, Texas and Mexico also recorded sub- stantial advances.
 Oils displayed none of their recent leadership Mexican and Pan-American Petroleums easing moderately but Houston Oil strengthened. Steamship issues, notably Atlantic. Gulf and Mercantile marine were responsive to better trade conditions.
 Variable gains marked the buying of Vanadium Steel. Baldwin, United States Rubber, Kelly Springfield and Consolidated Textile. but this was bal anced by moderate reactions in Cen tral Leather. Studebaker. Beet Sugar and several of the unclassified spe- cialtieS.
 Sales were 100000 shares.
 An advance of 13t points in the va rious French municipal issues was the noteworthy feature of an active bond market, the general list, including Liberties also showing firmness. Total sales, par value. aggregated $6.125.- 900. For the week old United States twos and fours were a quarter per cent higher on call.
 The weekly statement of the clear ing house banks reflected recent heavy shifting of funds in connection with federal tax and Liberty bond in- terest disbursement, actual loans and discounts increasing by almost $113,- 900, ,000. This expansion is without precedent since the first week of the current year

GILL ITEMS

Our farmers have been making
good use of the past week of good |
weather. Planting is about finish |
ed and corn is being worked out, |
but is small and yellow. No farmer
should fail to plant few acres of
June corn. 1t will mature for seed
planted as late as June 20 and will
make good feed planted as late as
July 10th.
Break your turnip patch deep
now while the breaking is good and
then break once month shallow
until September 10th and plant.
Turnips will not make on deep brok
en- land if seed are sown immed-
lately after the breaking. Plant a
few acres of Feterita and in the
event of a drugh you will have
good stock and poultry feed any
way. 1t will make despite the dry
weather.
That the closing exercises of our
high school were a success goes with
out saying, since Prof. j. E. Mann
ing, was master of ceremonies. He
has never made a failure but in
this instance the word success needs
! to be emphasized and the writer
doesn't know how only by prefixing
the word perfect. 1t was a perfect
success in every way, however there
are always a few members of all
programs worthy of special note and
without intention of discrediting
any part of the program as a whole
we desire to especially congratulate
the primary class in the rendition
of Mother Goose" as well as their
entire program And moreover do
we especially congratulate Miss
Mary Rives, their teacher, under
whose training and management the
program and rendition of same was
made possible. Perfect again we
note, with pride, the debate by the
advanced class. Subject, Resolved,
'That Congress should pass the Com
pulsory Military Training Act"
While the affirmative had little on
which to predicate an argument, yet
by nationwide research and in
vestigation of public records at
Washington City and elsewhere,
made by Prof. Manning, even going
back to ancient times in the rise
and fall of various nations, many
strong points were made by the af-
firmative. Which fact made it all
the more interesting 20 see the
zeal and determination on the part
of the negative to go after them,
which they did in a vigorous man
ner. 1t goes without saying the
negative won. The manner in which
both sides acquitted themselves on
the stage demonstrates the tutelage
they have had for the past nine
months. The judges selected to de-
eide this great issue were Misses
Simpson of Clarendon, Mayes of Ma
rianna and Lewis of Oak Forest.
Another special feature Of the pro-
gram was the lecture by DR.. Jewel
Dean of the state university, who
intended giving an educational lee
ture, laying stress upon the inn
portance of better school buildings,
better teachers, etc. However, after
his arrival and perspective of sur
roundings, he declared a change and
as the audience was composed of
men, women and children, he di-
versified his remarks, mixing spice
with the meat, making it pleasing to
the children as well as instructive
