LECTURE WELL ATTENDED

The lecture given on public health by Miss Earle Chambers at the High School auditorium Sunday night was well attended and would have re- ceived much larger attendance had the lights not been turned off just about time for the crowd to assemble.
 The lecture was to the point and was well received by the audience. Miss Chambers told many things that will be of untold advantage from a health standpoint, if they are prac- ticed by our people.
 She remained here part of Monday and visited the different rooms of the public schools and made short talks to the pupils on health, that will no doubt have a tendency to better the health conditions if fulfilled.

FINE WEATHER PREVAILING

During the past few days our rice farmers have been making much headway with the preparation for this years rice crop. Many farmers have finished their blowing and are disking and making ready for the drill
 Two weeks of nice weather will see many thousands of acres of rice plant ed, and all land ready to plant Good weather will also tend to increase the acreage as many rice growers contem- plate putting in more land this year than last if the season will permit.
 A large number of new wells have been put down in different parts of the prairie, where entirely new fields will be planted which will also in- crease the acreage to a considerable extent.
 Our farmers are better preparing themselves for the taking care of the next crop. They are learning by ex- perience that 1t Is an useless eXpendi ture and waste of money to put in 9 crop and not take care of 1t properly.
 They are equipping their farms with labor saving devices so as not to be caught by a labor shortage @nd will be able to much more easily han de the crop this year

UNPROTECTED MEN ARE WARN
 ED NOT TO GO TO EUROPE

Paris, March 28-Many dangers threaten the American tourist who would visit Europe. Floating mines is ore, but only secondary. The most dangerous awaits the tourist on Flu ropean soil. That is the man hunt. Millions of European women are left husbandless by the war and if they can seek their mates among the tcar- ists to come, they are going to do so.
 They are hoping that the number of bachelors among the tourists will be large one, but if not, who knows whether marriage will stop them? Polygamy has frequently been sug- gested as a remedy for the destruc- tion of men, but American women would undoubtedly prefer polyganly to be exercised by European men in stead of loaning their husbands to the husbandiess European sister. But whatever the solution, travellers In Europe had better be prepared for at rope had better be prepared for at tacks as difficult to resist as the fiercest battles of the war.

MILK PRODUCTION INCREASING

It will be noticed by the large number of cans of milk that is being shipped from Carlisle that the pro duction of milk in this vicinity IS m creasing rapidly. This is due to the coming of the spring pastures, which are beginning to show their value to the dairymen.
 With this much larger production and less cost for feed our dairymen should prosper for the balance of the spring and summer, and will do so should there be no drouths to kill the pastures.

ELKDOM.

One of the greatest American or ganizations in existence in this coun- try today is the Benevolent and Pro- tective Order of Elks. The spirit of Elkdom emanates from the heart of every true member of the organization. They go to the back door and leave a barrel of potatoes or a ton of coal. They go away unostentatiously with out brass band accompaniment.
 True some of our members man. ifest the human thoroughbred feeling in their good fellowship and even in the extreme it is productive of good results for humanity. No organiza- tion today secures the results for the uplift of humanity better than the Or der of Elks.

tical methods, and Bolshevism today is not so much a school of political philosophy as a career of crime. The BoBlsheviki stand for the theory of permanent revolution and the over- throw of existing governments by force and not through peaceful means. They put their faith in but one kind of movement-an armed insurrection of workmen and peasants. It is not recognized as labor movement, and Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, has said of it:
 'Bolshevism is as great an at tempt to disrupt the Labor Unions as it is to overturn the Government of the United States"
 According to a catechism prepar- ed by Lenine, the Bolshevik party represents the class of conscious pro- letarians hired laborers, and the poor CT portion of the rural population It advocates a republic of councils of workmen, soldiers and peasants, who are to hold all power.
 "In the final analysis Bolshevist is one who believes that the will of the people untrammeled by an con- stitutional guaranties or legal pro- visions previously enacted for the pro- lection of life, liberty or property shall be controlling and that the rights of liberty and property are subject to the unbridled will of Soviet or Legislature, and in it's pres ent form is a menace to our Ameri- can ideals and constitutional govern ment. It is the antithesis of Ameri- canism.
 Every Elk has taken a solemn obligation to support the constitution and laws of the United States of America and We have been taught as one of the fundamental principles of the Order that the American flag typ ical as it is of our form of govern ment, shall be first in our hearts as loyal Elks. No man can be Bolshe- vist and remain loyal American citizen and an Elk"
