NO ANSWER FOR
TOBACCO PRICE
Prices Not Yet Established; Exchange
Rate Still Handicaps Condit-~
ions Abrad.
(By W. B. Kennedy

The weather for the past week has
continued unfavorable for the hand
ling of loose tobacco and, tobacco is
hanging in the barns very dry. A
very small percent Of the crop has
been stripped and either put in bulk
or hung in the barn again. There
is less interest being shown among
buyers than is usual for this time of
year. The general opinion is that
there will be practically no movement
of the crop until after the first of
the year. Farmers are much inter
ested in what prices will be, but this
is a question that cannot be answer
ed until the crop begins to move and
prices are established. Reports as
to the quality of the crop bear out
the opinion that there will be con-
siderable quantity of common light
colored and light bodied tobacco this
season.
There is no trading being done in
hid. tobacco and inquiries for old
stock are very few. 1t is impossible
to do any business with Europe at
present on account of the unfavorable
exchange rate and until this handicap
is overcome, there will not be much
chance of a betterment of condit-
ions.

MUTT AND JEFF TO
BE HERE ON MONDAY
Two Famous Ubiquitious Purveyors
OF Fun, Mirth, Melody And
Song, Coming Here.

Those two ubiquitous purveyors of
fun, mirth, melody and song, Mutt
and jeff, are soon to be in our midst
again. Manager Gus Hill, their
sponsor, announces that these Won
derful and ever popular comics will
appear in a highly seasoned, lively
and screamingly funny musical COM
edy in three acts and bearing the title
of "Mutt and Jeff at the Races" In
this piece, which can boast Of melo-
dies and a score above the average,
the pair will have every opportunity
of figuring in escapades and situa-
tions sure to keep the tide of fun, hi
larity and mirth going at a steady
and ceaseless ebb. Naturally, Mutt
and Jeff quarrel What would their
existence be without some mutual
feud? But as their quarrels are be-
tween themselves and as good Sa-
maritans are not expected to inter-
fere we feel sure, and can almost say
with certainty, that everything is e.
ventually righted and that the olive
branch of friendship is extended at
the finish. This latest sensation of
real wit, joy and happiness is under
lined to play an engagement at the
Dixie Theatre, Monday, December 6.
Another triumph has gone to the
credit of that astute and ever re-
sourceful and original purveyor of
up to date entertainment, Gus Hill.
AS will be remembered Mr. Hill is
the discoverer Of amusing cartoons
and comics which before long are
sure to receive public endorsement on
the stage. AS an instance we might
cite the phenominal and sensational
success of Mutt and jeff. Mr. Hill
has been presenting this most below
ed pair of funmakers for many sea-
sons. This year he has provided
them with brand new vehicle enti-
tied "Mutt and Jeff at the Races"
which will be the attraction at the
Dixie theatre Monday, December 9th.
1T is a real show for real people who
wish to laugh and at the same time
renew the acquaintance of old and
tried and true favorites.

TAKES
PROGRESSIVE STEP
Readers Have Gotten One Real Bar
gain During The Period of
Price ,Ascensions.

After suffering the effects of the
high cost of newsprint paper, which
has outstripped any commercial com
modify in the price ascension since
before the war the Partisan as found
softer berth for 1921.
Cooperating with the two daily
papers at Mayfeld, the Paducah Sun,
and one or two other Kentucky pub
'lications, The Partisan recently pur-
chased stock in the Publishers Buy
ing Corporation, of New York City.
At meeting of the publishers in
Paducah on last Friday, the first ton
mage of newsprint paper on the 1921
contract under the corporations pur-
chase of fifty-thousand tons, was or
dered out. The paper was contrac-
ted for at Z 1-2 cents a pound, while
today The Partisan is using paper
that cost 13 Ia cents pound.
The difference is quite an item in
view of the volume of paper that it
requires to produce The Partisan,
and especially as any variation in the
cost of newsprint paper cannot be

subscription price having remained
the same. or $1.50 per year while
this and other newspapers were as
suming the burden of the increased
cost of the paper without increasing
the subscription or the advertising
rates. There has been no increase
in Partisan advertising rates for two
years on contract copy, and an in
crease of only cents an inch on
run of copy,
That readers may know the bar
gain they have gotten in news the
past year, the books of The Partisan
for it's fiscal year closing November
30th, shows the revenue from sub
scriptions did not total sufficient to
pay for the newsprint paper alone,
much less the ink, mechanical costs,
editorial staff, and the thousand one
items entering into the cost of pro-
duction.

Some $4,000 in tickets was also con-

for charitable purposes for the needy

have been at least $500, although the
initial amount vii! probably later be
augmented by personal checks. There

HENRY STORE ROBBED OF
$500 WORTH OF GOODS

Sneak thieves entering through a
window, carried off goods amounting
to approximately $500, from the
store of M. Joyner, general merchan-
disc, at Henry, Monday night. No
trace of the robber has yet been
found, nor any authentic estimation
of how the loot, composed of jewelry,
dry gods, ETC., was removed.
1t was thought at Paris, Thursday
morning that the thief had been de-
tected, but the man under suspect es-
capped before he was arrested.
This is the largest haul made in
this neck of the woods in many
moons.
