PREMIUM AWARDS
At POULTRY SHOW
Prof J. ]. Buell. Made the Scoring an
Educational Event TO Those in
Attendance-High School
Students Attend.

The official awards of the First An
nnal District Poultry Show held in
Mena were made Wednesday, after
noon after Prof. j. j. Buell., head of
the poultry department of the Month
cello Agricultural school, completed
the job of scoring the birds on exhibi-
ton. In using the standard fixed by
the American Poultry Association,
Prof. Buell. scored closer than has
been the practice at ordinary poultry
shows, and as a result there are sew
eral instances where no first award
was made for the reason that not a
bird measured UP to the required
standard. Still other entries were
disqualified for the reason that on ac-
count of some defect they fell below
the standard. The educational fea-
ture of the show, however, was the
work of scoring the birds, and all day
tuesday while Prof. Buell. was at
work he had around him interested
spectators, intent on learning what
they could about the characteristics
OF the different breeds.
The exhibit was visited Wednesday
afternoon by Miss Leonora Rector
and students of the agricultural class
of the High school, to whom Profess
sor Buell. pointed out the characters
tics of the leading breeds, and indi-
Gated where individual birds fell to
come up to the standard.

Last autumn zinc and iron coins were minted, and now the news dispatches forecast pieces of money made in the potter's kiln of material which our. grandmothers would have called "china.'' Of course, as is absolutely pointed out, the new coins will be highly sanitary, being capable of treatment in the kitchen sink like '.other kinds of dishes or sterilization in the manner of surgeons utensils, as circum- stances may require.-The Nations Business.

LYRIC. (Review)

In the production of Civilian Clothes" the Poli Players have a me- dium which is not only the best of classed as the best of comedies on the American stage today. It is more than comedy. Besides the many humorous features there is also the semblance of plot. Sam McGuin- ness, while a captain in the U. s. army, meets and marries Florence Lanham, a society girl who is infatu- ated with his uniform and the glory which is being showered upon her hero. She hears he has been killed and returns to America. No one knows they have been married and she decides to keep it secret. Her husband reappears but instead of the debonair captain she married he is apparently the son of a cobbler with out manners. When snubbed by his wife he takes the position of butler in the family and gets rid of her ad- mirers and finally makes her love him for what he is. a man.
 Arthur Chatterdon, as McGuiness, furnishes additional proof of his abil- ity as an actor, and Mary Ann Dent Ter as Florence exceeds her best ef- forts. Rose Ludwig, Mabel Griffith, Rhea Dively, Leta Malcome, and Jane Tarr are all good in their re- spective roles. Arthur Griffen. Jack McGrath, Willard Dashie1l, Edward Davidson, Chares Jewett, William Lemuels and Foster Williams all ably portray the characters assigned them.

WEST END.

Commenting upon each successive picture in which Nazimova is the star has become a process very similar to that of the old frontiersman after he has caused the pesky redskin to take large and final mouthfu1 of alka11 dust. Every criticism of this mar velous screen artist is simply another notch cut in the gun-stock of her fame.
 To say whether or not Nazimova is better in ''The Heart of a Child'' than in previous productions is somewhat beside the point. She is each time so utterly different, and each time it seems as if she were more moving and appealing.
 This, her present production, gives Nazimova the rather formidable tasS of depicting a cockney girl, Sally Shape, brought up haphazard in the slums of London known as Lime house. A tragedy of her girlhood causes the child to be thrown upon the world with no other protection against it's complex and masked at tack than her inborn sense of what is right. Sal1ys life goes far from Lime house-into the theatre, into the world of fashionable shops and smart houses, but her heart runs true to ite original and irresistible simplicity. Ii is the heart of a child.
 It. will be shown for the last time tonight.

AMERICAN INTEGRITY

Three times the past sixty years
has the integrity OF this nation been
assailed and placed In jeopardy. In
each crisis the Republican party has
stood as the defenders Of National
integrity. and from some unfortunate
circumstance. or Unborn tendency, the
Democratic party has been the assail-

THE LESSON TAUGHT

The results Of the late election show
that Americans stand for square dea
in politics and elsewhere. The Demo
Gratis. under the hypnotic influence OF
Wilson, gained an apparent victory
four years ago on a false issue. The
election two years ago was the first
opportunity the people had for entering
a protest. Mr.. Wilson still further
angered the people by ignoring the re-
suits of that election, after having
pledged his word to abide by 1t. The
angered people spoke again Nov. End
in a voice that could not be mis-under-
stood and which said Now do you
Mr.. Wilson,"
wisconsin and Democracy are two
things. Wilson uses what
ever party name best suits his personal
at the time. The men
he has attracted around him under the
Democratic banner have been apt
pupils under his instruction and are
shooled In the small tricts and decepr-
tons of the lowest of the low vile rot
