AMERICAN LEGION HOLDS MEMORIAL SERVICE

l The honoring of the American sol- Bier dead, was the purpose of the Memorial Service held by the Nevada Post of the American Legion at the Methodist church last evening, con Pucted by Rev. Theo F. Hall, pastor If the local Christian Church.
 The large auditorium was filled to {apacity by the time the opening song Fas rendered by the mixed choir from he churches of the city and within ! few minutes, there was hardly banding room on the inside, the vesti- Pules accommodating those who could bot gain entrance. Fred Fuller. an x-soldier and one of Arkansas com Ing statesmen, delivered the opening Fddiress using as his subject "The Or gin of the American Legion. MT. Fuller, with splendid flow of words gaye history of the huge organiza- lon of ex-service men of the world Far, explaining the purposes and the chievements of the Legion, granding IS false all reports to the effect that ne Legion was mixed in politics, that
 was organized to fight for bonus E that it was just social organiza- pon. His reading of the preamble of ne constitution of the American Le- non was an interesting piece of news
 his many hearers.
 The most excellent sermon delivered " the Rev. Theo F. Hall was mas Frpiece of Christianity and brother
 love, intermingled with that origi- ailty so typcal of ths great man, who HIS place so we'll on occasions ot lls nature and who wins the hearts
 his hearers by his wonderful abili-
 to touch the heart chord. We fain you'd attempt to comment on this reat ermon on the hero dead, be- ause to do so would be like treading nere angels fear to tread, only ae man himself can deliver so touch a message and convey the true sson it contains.

GIRLS COMMISSION JUDGE TO
 LOCATS FIVE HE-MEN

Chicago, May 29.-Samuel Harri- son, justice of the peace in Evanston, is searching for five young men who must satisfy him that they will make "100 per cent husbands" For these he has five charming and altogether desirable wives Candidates are re- quired measure up to these specifi- cations:
 1. Ambitious to succeed in life.
 2. Old-fashioned as regards willing ness to stya by home fireside.
 8. Reasonably good looking.
 4. A veteran of the army or navy.
 5. The sort of man who sticks to one job and makes the most of it.
 6. Healthy and intelligent.
 In special circumstances, specified tion No. 4. will be waived but the can- didate must show he was no stacker or shirker. There will be no modified tion of the other five requirements. However, an ex-soldier or sailor, who meets the other requirements, will have decided leeway over all others.
 Judge Harrison declines to name the five girls, but says they are of the best, all of splendid families and that they are weary of wasting time on half portions who are content to work just enough to pay for clothes and cigarettes. They want real, honest-to goodness, he-men and have commis- stoned the Judge to find them.

LOUISIANA SUGAR OUTPUT
 LOWEST IN RECENT YEARS

Louisiana produced in 1919 only 100000 pounds of sugar, as com pared with 561 ,800,000 in 1918, 4s7,- 100000 in 1917, and GOT, ,800,0O in 1916. The 22 sugar parishes pro- duced only 2,510,000 gallons of sirup as compared with 10,793, ,000 in 1918 and 5,652 ,000 in 1917. The entire State produced in 1919 only 3,672,- 900 gallons of sirup. The molasses production for 1919 was 12,991 ,00O gallons as compared with 28,049, ,000 in 1918,30, ,72S,000 in 1917, and 26,- 154,000 in 1916. These figures were announced today by the Bureau of Crop Estimates, United States De- partment of Agriculture.
 The Louisiana sugar cane crop of 1919 was one of the shortest since the keeping of records was begun. The trouble began with poo4 seed, and was augmented by unfavorable weather and scarcity of labor re- sulting in uneven stands, grassy fields, s3I low yields

FOLLOWING FALSE LEADERS

There is an element of poignant pathps in the series of questions that the striking switchmen of Chicago have addressed to John Grunau, the man who led them into the outlaw strike. In the first place they ask him how the strikers will be able to get back the seniority rights they for feited when they obeyed his counsels against the advice of their recognized union leaders. Then they want to know how they are going to secure the 85 cents to $1 an hour since "the labor board will not give our mem bers recognition or consideration un- til we return to work" Finally they tell him that the railroads seem to be operating fairly well under the cir cumstances.
 The condition of the strikers is in deed pathetic. Against the loss of prospective advancement and pros pective wage increase, together with the actual money loss entailed by their idleness, they have not one sin gle promise to alleviate the remorse that their rash action must produce. II they are received back into their old union status it must be as prodi- gal sons without any fatted calf in prospect. Therefore, there is a depth of meaning in their words when they address Grunau rather pointedly and ask him: What have you to offer us?a

A MARKET MYSTERY PRESENT.

Dealers in Clothing who declare that in vain have they offered cheap suits are drawing from the paucity of their sales the conclusion that there is no real demand for low prices. This, if true, is strange indeed, and N raises the disquieting question whether Americans are different from other people.
 Over in London, not long ago, when an enterprising member of Parlia- ment experimented exactly as some of our merchants claim to have done, the cheap suits he put on. sale were the ogjects of desire to eager crowds, and they were bought as fast as they were offered. One would not like to say, and there is no reason for saying, that the Briton's suits were good as we'll as cheap, while over here the cheap ness was the only and insufficient at traction, as it always should be.
 There must be some other explana- tion, and the other explanation must be something else than the absence here of any inclination to economize. At any rate it should De something else, and to doubt that it is so is not only to ignore a lot of what at least seems to be good evidence to the con- trary, but 1t ascribes to us kind and degree of folly close akin to madness.

FORGOTTEN WAR PROPHECY

'"The present war in Europe will not be the last war, as some are rashly predicting. As long as racial prejudice exists and until there is un- iversal brotherhood wars will occur. The treaties that will be signed at the close of the war will last until the vanquished have gained sufficient strength to attempt to regain their lost honor and territory. The war will be short and decisive war. More men may be killed in battle, but the percentage of the casualties will scarcely be larger than in former years. Owing to improved methods of sanitation and in training soldiers the number of deaths from disease will be reduced to a minimum. The developments of modern implements of warfare will shorten the time of the war and reduce the amount of suffering and financial loss. Within year Europe will be in peace again and in few years will have recover ed almost entirely from the effects of the war. It will not be SC terrible that in another crisis like this nations will refuse to go to war. From the Army and Navy Journal of Aug. T, 1914.

FARM WOMEN'S WORK
FOR The COMING YEAR

(From Jan. Farm Bureau Bulletin)
, In the short time since the Farm
Bureau was organized in Roosevelt
county, but little has been done along
the line of Women's Work, owing
largely to the time of the year, and
the inclement weather so far, which
has made communication with the
farm women almost impossible.
However, probably before this is
in print, your county project leader
well be on her way to Bozeman, arm
ed with the petition for a Home
Demonstration Agent which you re-
Gently signed, and which we have
every reason to believe will be
granted. The meeting at Bozeman
should be inspirational, and in no
subject more than the women's pro-
jects.
If our petition is granted, dear
friends IN the farms, make use of
your home demonstration agent.
Have your problem ready; it will
prove to be the problem of some
other woman as well. And perhaps
your idea of the projects to be taken
up will be exactly what others have
been searching for. In any case,
don't forget this truth, which all
connected with the Bureau are try
ing to drive home: Your county
agent and home demonstration agent
will be just as useful to you as you
will let them bet mostly rests with

1907. Indiana citizens that year
closed more than 720 saloons by
means of ''remonstrances."
Alabama, Mississippi and North

liquors when such liquors were to be
used in violation of law, was passed
by congress in 1913 over the presi-
