QY hitting a big bass drum just

That was twenty-five years
ago, and the black eyes have
grown more gentle in years of
service for the poor since those
battling days, but they still twin

1t was Mrs. Adam Clifford, wife
of the colonel now commanding

Salvation Army, who welded the
drumstick and struck defiance at

Following this Colonel Clifford in
effort to test the constitutionality

Mrs. Clifford would beat the drum.

Severely Injured
at AnQleSea

Jose Autire, an Italian employed by
the Hereford Fish Co, was badly hurt
Wednesday morning at the Anglesea
toat landing by being thrown from a
fish cart on which he was standing.
The horse made a sudden start, jolt
ing him off the cart. He fell to the
ground, striking on his back. He
made vain efforts to arise. Fellow
workmen, Italians employed by the
same company, witnessed the acci-
dent and carried him to their bunk
house. AS the man was only semi
conscious, unable to walk and mOaned
as though in great pain, Doctor May
hew was phoned for by Joseph Sut-
ton, also a Hereford Fish Co. employee,
but he was not in his office. Mr.. SUIT
ton then drove his automobile to the
Italians bunk house and the injured
man was lifted t the machine and
driven, accompanied by five workmen,
to DR.. Margaret Mace's hospital.
Mrs. Mcintyre, the head nurse, and
Mrs. Wise had the patient placed COM
fortably on an operating table. Doctor
Mace was out of town and Mrs. Nc
Intyre phoned for Doctor Cohen. He
was not in his Office, but was located
by phone at his home. Doctor Cohen
soon arrived, followed q few minutes
later by Doctor Mace, and they gave
the italian immediate attention. He
su filtered a severe sprain from the fall,
but no bones were broken. Unless in
ternal Injuries were inflicted by the fall,
he should recover in a few days.

The County RaDlss

futhe last issse Of Tks. FNaiouu was. .puh
lisbed the statements of the 'siGhf bank
OF the county, given unds. call from
the state banking department at NASH
vile. Those statements showed that
the banks have suffered in the financial
depression along with the other business
interests of the county, their suffering
coming from a diminished revenue like
all other business.
They also show the condition Of the
banks to be good. safe and sound, and
distinctive credit TO the men who op-
crate them and the people they serve.
The Falcon has heard numerous favor
able comments on these statements and
oil have been surprised that the de-
posits In the banks are as large as they
are 10 the face Of the scarcity Of money
thruout the county and lhe nation.
These deposits are by no means what
they are In normal years at this season
just when most of the cotton has been
marketed and the money placed in the
banks. but are heavy enough to show
stable and safe financial con iition for
the banks themselves and for the bus
mess men Of the county.
The total deposits 10 the eight banks
is sS2S. .00S or nearly a million dollars,
with the Fayette County Bank Of
SomerviIe leading the list with $500,
600. and the Somervills Bank G. Trust
Company second with Sl23.247 Moscow
Savings Bank third with Sl0S,055.
The amounts due by the hanks 10
other banks Is larger than usual and
reflects their efforts to supply their
customers with sufficient funds, and,
also. the slower payment of notes
which these banks hold than usual. Cot
ten has been slow selling this season
and much Of it remains in the hands OF
Of the grower and that has kept these
growers from paying their notes promp-
tly, But the whole banking situation in
this county Is pleasing to the business
interests.

Cotton is Going Up

One prophetmofe. will make but lit
tie difference.
When Secretary Houston was inter
viewed some weeks ago relative to a.
naneing the cotton crop. the writer at
once, while his answer was as yet not
given, predicted slight advance. 1t
came this way. When he refused, 9
similar decline was predicted. 1t came.
The present rise Is due to to the talk
about reviYing the War Finance Cor.
porstion. II II is revived cotton will
rise materially. Now is not the time
TO sell cotton.
But more important still, see the ar
ticle 10 the last Msnufacturers' Re-
cord, wherein the Oklahoma senator
discusses the fatal error in the Federal
Reserve Banking system in raising the
rate Of interest, and Its results.
Briefly. he states that the Reserve
Board, to eliminate speculation raised
the rate discount, which had the effect
Of forcing those who owed them to
pay up. This cut down the working
capital of men who do large business.
and thus caused q decline in buying
,power. which bit cotton, corn, cattle
etc.

,aold reserve of only -four cents against
every dollar of obligation. That 10 they
have four hundred million 10 gold re-
serve and have outstanding Obligations

Yet England goes merrily on trans
acting the business Of the world, How?

Lie CONFIDENCE. The United
States has twenty seven times as much
gold In reserve as England, and the
Federal Reserve Board got case of
of "Nerves" and shut up the money
and broke Us oil.
That is the gist Of the Oklahoma sen
ators discussion, and be was one Of
those who helped to draft the. law which
brought the said Reserve banks into
existence.
Keep your eye on the talk of reviving
that War Finace corporation and watch
the action of the Reserve Banking
Board. If they lower interest rates
ever so little. cotton will advance.
Il will be very unjust for land owners
TO force tenants to pay rent now, IN
less stipulating that they may share In

also the obligation himself to share in

Return of ecclesiastical properties

Gates the better condition in which
the Church in France finds itself since
the war Numerous instances of this
policy of restitution by the civil
authorities have been recorded in the
last several months.
1t is announced in the Oran Re-
ligious Weekly that the episcopal res
idence OF the town has been restored
to the present Bishop. In the town
OF Aire,, the municipal council, to
which had been given the Bishops
palace and the little seminary, has
unanimously offered to turn these
back to the Bishop.
The general council of the Morbi-
han has authorized the sale of the
little seminary of ST. Anne d'Auray
so that eventually it may be purchased
by the Bishop. Cardinal Dubois re-
Gently made known through the Re-

his residence in the former Bishops
palace at Rouen, and added that the
civil authorities afforded him every
facility to occupy it.
