Dieppe. France, July II, 1920.
1t is hard to realize that for four
long years the war was but SO miles
from Dieppe. that during the ter
rible August of 1914 and again in
the spring of 1913 the approach OF
the German armies put tho fnhabi-
tants in fear of the safety of their
property and their lives. During
those four years the hotels OF Dieppe
were occupied by English troops, for
this was British military base. The
promenade and the Casino were de-
serted, for no one took u vdCation
during those years, and if anyone had
been pleasure-seeking. he would have
preferred something in zone where
air and submarine raids were not ali
everyday possibility.
Today Dieppe is the same carefree
summer resort that it was in the
years before the war. The long line
of hotels along the Rue Aguado,
facing the sea, is crowded with hap
py summer people. The mirrorcd
restaurants are resplendent with
feathers, jewels and gay dresses. In
deed, hotels and pensions are much
fuller than before the war. for are
not many people now rich who were
then poor? True, many are now
poor who were then rich, but they
probably come whether they can
afford it or not. 1t is difficult to get
accommodations now, and impos-
sible for August, which in England
and France is the favorite month for
holidays.
AS might be guessed from what I
have said, We are not finding Dfeppe
an economical place in which to live.
Twenty francs apiece a day is the
smallest sum for which we have been
able to find reasonably good board
and lodging. At normal rates Of ex-
change that would be 81 a day, and
even at the present favorable rate it
means about $3.50. English and
American tourists do not. find that
the exchange gives them any advan-
tage, and French people on their va
cations must find prices very burden
some.
Indeed, in this part Of France the
financial situation is almost the only
reminder that there has been a war
Almost all silver and gold coins have
disappeared from circulation, partly
because they have been exported to
meet the national obligations abroad,
partly because at the present rate of
exchange they are worth more as
bullion than as coin. or course the
melting Of coin is forbidden, but the
temptation Is great. For a time 1t
was almost impossible to get any.

COMMERCIAL CREED MUST
Be CHECKED BY LAM
Many Years Will Not Elapse BEFORE
Great Fishing Industry of the
Columbia Is Destroyed.


greed of the age overreaches and
must be checked by law when It de-
stroys the natural food resources OF
the nation. Read this statement
given the press by Deputy State Fish
Warden Larsen;
Thousands of small fish are being
slaughtered at the mouth of the
Columbia river and unless the practice
is stopped by the inforeemsptsa af
stringent regulatiohss many syeary
Will elapsa before the great Aahjng
indpetry OF the river win be .ruihSd
There are more than 400 purse
tssines operating on the mouth of "A
river. and as one result OF practices
followed by the operators of this class
OF gear the shores at North Beach is
literally lined with bodies OF vast
numbers of young salmon which heve
been ruthlessly killed. OF course,
these seines catch all kinds of fish,
both large and small, and the operat
ors, instead of releasing the small
lsh uninjured, either gaff them or
haul them on. the decks of their
vessels and then throw them over
board dead. This is needless de-
struction of the most important food
fish on the Pacific coast, which the
state is spending thousands Of dollars
each year to propagate, as the little
fish are being slain long before they
have a chance to develop and become
of commercial value.
Another injury which these purse
seines are doing is to destroy the
natural feeding grounds of the young
salmon of the mouth Of the river.
Some of these seines are $50 feet
scrape the bottom of the sea, tearing
are teeming with bugs and atoms
out the vegetable growths, which
upon which the small salmon feed.
Nature has provided these feeding
grounds for the salmon, and we are
allowing them to be destroyed.
''The purse seiners are not the only
ones responsible for this destruction
of small fish. Some of the packers
are at fault by encouraging the prac-
tice. For instance, last year the pack
ers made an agreement to take no
fish under 20 inches in length, and
the legislature at it's recent session
enacted law fixing the limit of 20
inches in length on fish which can be
accepted at any packing plant. That
limit is far too low, and several pack
ers, realizing that fact have agreed
to accept no salmon weighing less
than eight pounds each.
"Others, however, are receiving
fish of almost any size. In fact, one
packer told me recently that he was
running his cannery and would accept
any fish that he wished. AS an
instance of the kind of salmon that
is being delivered at that plant, one
delivery there few days ago included
a box which contained 200 fish, when
customarily from six to eight fish will
fill box.
II cannot arrest a man unless he
takes fish under 20 inches in length.
Now a fish that size will weigh only
four or five pounds. whereas the state
law should prohibit the delivery Of
salmon weighing under ten pounds
each. If we had such law and could
place some strict regulations on the
operations of the purse seiners there
might be a chance Of checking this
ruthless destruction of small salmon"

GRIPPING HEART DRAMA OF STAGE FILMED IN "THE PAINTED
 WORLD"
Young Girls First Romance Is Shattered By Shame of Parentage.

The tragedy of a young girls first love dreams shat tered by the revelation of her own parentage is pictured with fine dramatic intensity in Vitagraph's '"The Painted World," starring Anita Stew art, and which will be shown in the Jewel Theatre on next Thursday night, October, IA.
 Yvette's mother is "The Masked Lady of the Moulin Rouge," the father a person unspeakable. The mother has sworn her child never shall enter the gates of the painted world where she makes her living and her identity she tries to hide behind the rep utation of wealthy widow Who travels extensively.
 Yvette is brought up far rom the city, but on one of the visits home she meets her II;ather, who brutally tells her tne truth and tells her that When he is ready she, too, will enter the painted world.
 The girls shame and terror at this revelation is over snadowed by knowledge that one of the requirements of the man she loves-the only one Sne cannot meet-is that 'the parents of the girl he marries must be beyond reproach. :"

ATTORNEY IS DISBARRED,
George A. Burr of Paragould
 Found Guilty by Court.

Paragould, Oct. 7.-George A. Burr, local attorney, who is we'll known in northeast ern Missouri, this afternoon was disbarred from practice as the result of hearings con- ducted before Judge R. H. Dudley in Circuit Court.
 The charges against MT. Burr grew out of bitterly con- tested lawsuits in 1913 and 1916. The first was the case. of the Watkins Medical Com pany of Winona, Minn., against Joe Clark. The other was the case of the same med ical company against A. o. Johnson.
 MT. Burr, in preparing his case for the jury in the John son hearing, extracted four or five exhibits from the Clark record without having se- cured consent of the court to do so, and offered these ex- hlbits in evidence.
 MT. Burr, on the witness stand, and in his official ans wer, admitted having taken the exhibits, but insisted that he regarded them as of no value, and that. since he had called for them at Winona and had been responsible for having them read into the records, he regarded them as his own. He also said that in Ohio, where he practiced law for 10 years before coming to Paragould, it was customary for attorneys to go to the courthouse and secure such records and documents with out receipting for them or getting permission of the court.
 It was agreed between at torneys for the prosecution and defense that the matters involved were points of law and that the jury might be discharged and a verdict be given by the court. The case for MT. Burr was argued by H. R. Partlow and Allan D. Stewart, the latter MT. Burr's son-in-law. Argument in n favor of the disbarment pro- ceedings was conducted by J. M. Futrell and M. P. Huddle- ston.
 Judge Dudley, in announ- cing the verdict, said that the defendant had admitted talk ing the papers; that they were of material importance; that at the time the Johnson case was being tried the Clark case was still pending; that Johnson could not have estab- lished his connection with the company except through the circulars and documents; that the prosecution had made out it's case fully and completely
