SOME Of THOSE WHO
BOUGHT HIGH GRA De
CATTLE At STOCK SALE

That the first sale Of Shorthorn
cattle ever held in Ardmore was a
success is beyond question according
TO statements Of cattlemen present
and were purchasers.
The pure bred movement is rapidly
gaining ground in Carter county and
it is freely predicted among cattle
men that within a very few years
the scrub will be practically elimi-
mated.
One prominent breeder stated today
that in his opinion within 10 years
there would be nothing but pure bred
cattle in this section of the state.
This condition, he said, can only be
brought about by just such sales
as was conducted here last Saturday.
The following purchasers became
the owners of fine shorthorn stock
at the Gillian sale
John Griffis topped the sale by
purchasing "Sultans Gallant n line
bred whitehall Sultan bull, 10
months old, for s650.00.
Also tops for heifers with Roam
Beauty" at $500,
e. ]. Gill purchased Lady Hide
! gard" a 13 months old heifer by
Golden Archer" for $3.50 He also
purchased five other heifers at an
average price of 5000 each.
IIeenan, Coe, and Sykes purchased
"Floras Pride" a 12.months old bul
ny Monarch" for 1920. This ami
NAL will be kept at the farm Of X
Y. Knuteson, at Wilson.
The largest individual purchaser
was jim Cruce of this city, whC
bought six heifers at an average price
OF 5000 each.
Wood Herndon purchased two heif

PUBLISHER SAYS TYPO
UNION IS RESPONSIBLE
FOR HIGH COST PAPER

Washington, May Cd. u. McCone
of the Buffalo Commercial testifying
before the senate investigating COM
mittee. investigating the paper short.
age declared that the international
Union through its shop chapels, ex'
ercised a censorship over the news
columns Of all except four newspapers
of the country. The chapel foreman,
he charged, is charged with keeping
out of print stories unfavoraDie 10

Asked by Chairman Reed to give
specific instances where such cen
sorship had been exercised, Mr.. Nc
Cone declared that when Judge Ell

senate committee investigating the
steel strike regarding the people OF
freedom Of contract, the Buffalo News
received and set in type and cast
into the plate an Associated Press
news dispatch of his testimony, but
the presses We're not permitted TO

story.
Mr.. McCone said the New YORK
Times and the Buffalo Commercial
were about the only newspapers ID
the eastern part of the United states
that carried the story us sent by the
Associated Press. The witness SAID
that the Buffalo Commercial operat

Mr.. McCone asserted that all mem

required to take an oath decidedly

NO ARGUMENT AT ALL

Tho proposed stand Of the Ameri.
can Chamber Of Commerce on soldier
bonus legislation is not in keeping
with the justice in the case. The
Chamber Of Commerce is arguing
against paying soldiers a bonus on
the ground that thousands OF dollars
would be released for spending and
that business would be hampered
thereby because recipients would lay
off Of their jobs while they spent
the money.
Either the soldiers deserve the bon.
US or they do not. What they will
do with the money has nothing what
ever to do with the case.
Such argument as the Chamber OF
Commerce is putting up is parallel to
holding up a mans salary because
he won't work for while after he
gets 1t.
II the people Of America don't feel
that the soldiers deserve a little more
than umpty praise fer the victory

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

At meeting of the Board of Man
ayers of the Charles Town General
Hospital, held on the st hday of De-
cember, 1920, the, following resolu-
tions were adopted:
Be it Resolved. That in the un-
timely death of Frank S. Harrison,
the Board of Managers of the
Charles Town General Hospital has
sustained the loss of loyal and eff
ficient member.
Possessing business acumen and
executive ability Of the highest or
der. and imbued with compassionate
interest in the welfare of the Hos
pital, its officers, attendants and pa
tients, his service to the institution
during his tenure Of Office was actu-
taed BY an exalted sense of public
duty. and the broadest sympathy
with those to whom the Hospital was
called to minister in their affection.
In deploring his taking off, at the
meridian Of a splendid manhood, the
Board extends its deep sympathy to
the family of our deceased member,
and to those who will miss the min
istrations of this kindly gentleman,
who. full of the milk of human kind
ness, was never happier than. when
engaged in the services of his fellow
men.
Resolved. That a copy of these
resolutions be spread upon the MN
utes of the meeting.

Postmaster S. C. Young today an
nounced that the slogan Make Your
self a Present of the Saving Habit"
would be urged by postoffice officials
for Christmas shoppers in this city.
Postmaster Young has secured a sup
ply of 1920 War Savings Stamps,
maturing 1925, now selling for 4.23,
and wishes to remind prospective
buyers that December is the last
month in which this issue can be OBJ
tanned. The gift of War Savings
Stamp, the postmaster points out, is
gift of increasing worth, not only
so far as its money value is concern
ed, but as start in the habit of
saving.
According to an announcement re-
ceived by the postmaster here from
Secretary Houston, the new War
Savings Stamps to be issued in 1921,
maturing 1925, will be larger in size
than the 1920 stamp and orange In

RED CROSS NURSES. REPORT

Our school work is again the pre-
dominating feature among nursing
! activities. Twenty visits were made
to schools, 288 pupils examined by
nurse. OF this number 1872 were re
ferred to their dentist; IL were re-
ferred to their oculist, and 113 were
referred to their physician. So we
see that defective teeth head the list
| of abnormal conditions, which en-
larged tosils following closely. 1t is
rather interesting to note that as we
reach the higher grades there is a
! decided decrease in the proportion of
physically defective and this may be
partly attributed to the fact that a
number of those in the lower grades
are kept back mentally due to their
physical condition, and also no doubt
number will have gone to an early
grave.
] should like to urge that whatever
is possible may be done in the very
near future toward establishing
dentist clinic. There is great need
for it. This was especially impress
ed upon me when | followed the
special cases among school children
into their homes and found how inn
possible it would be for some parents
to give their children proper dental
care. Thirty-nine visits to homes of
school children were made. Charles
Tcwr school has been granted scale
for weighing and measuring the
pupils, and considerable time has
been spent in organizing class COM
m;ttees among the older pupils for
making these tests. Results will
/ have to be told later
We still need several volunteers,
| who would spend an hour once a
month to weigh the pupils in the
lower grades.
1t was possible for us to make pre-
liminary visits to the schools at Mid
dleway, Leetown, Nippon, Shenan-
doah junction and Harper's Ferry,
where it seems that the teachers are
interested in our cooperation, and we
may look forward to extending the
work there. The Harper's Ferry
Woman's Club is also interested and
promises cooperation.
The Ransom school room and prem
ises, as well as the pupils, were in
spected, and report of the unsatis-
factory conditions there prepared
and submitted to the Board of Edu-
cation.
Our infant and child welfare con
ference was quite small with an at
tendance of eight younsters. How
ever with inclement weather and pre-
parations for Thanksgiving Day to
compete with us, this should not be
considered discouraging. Forty sew
en- infant welfare visits were made
to homes and 81 child welfare visits
(of pre-school age), and our mothers
are apparently taking an interest.
The next conference is to be held
on the 18th of December, the last
Wednesday in the month.
There were also two nursing visits
made to one free patient; prenatal
visits; 2 tuberculosis visits; social
service visits; l Office treatment; 8
friendly visits; 16 other visits; max
ing total Of TIA visits.
Respectfully submitted,
RED CROSS NURSE.
