Mo-, Rev. Thomas Lord, her pastor,
officiating. To this union there were
born three sons, Langdon, Byron and
Lrl Jones, all of whom have families
and reside in Kennett. Mr.. Jones,
who had become one of the leading
citizens of the county, died in 1911,
whereupon the boys took charge of
~the estate. Their mother had accom-
panied them when they went away
from home to school, and thus they
were not without mothers care dur
ing the critical period of their lives.
Mrs. Jones was converted in her
girlhood it is thought while she was
attending Arcadia Aigh School, which
was noted for the sweeping revivals
annually occurring there. She united
with the Methodist Church at Cotton
Plant, moving her membership to
Kenneit after her marriage, then to
st. Louis, and finally to Los Angeles,
where she departed this life, Septem-
Der 20, 1921.
Besides her sons, she leaves four
grandchildren and two brothers,
namely, Charles V. Langdon, of San
Diego, California, and Albert ]. Lang
don, of Arcadia, Mo.
During her residence in st. Louis,
she became identified with the charity
work of that city, being on the Board
of Directors of the Blind Girls Home,
the Bethesda Home, and the Ladies'
Charitable Aid Association. She was
a woman bubbling over with life, OF
amiable disposition, and easily the
center of attraction in the social Cir
Gle.
The funeral services which were
held at the residence of her youngest
son, Irl Jones, were in charge of Rev.
Thomas E. Smith, pastor of the Ken
nett Methodist church; and were par
ticipated in by Rev. Thomas Lord, of
LaBadie, Rev. ]. E. Kerr, pastor of
the Presbyterian church, Kennett,
and Rev. Nelson B. Henry, of Esther,
Mo- After the services, the remains,
followed by a host of friends were
taken to Oak Ridge cemetery, and
were laid to rest beside those of her
husband.
May heavens richest blessing rest
upon her devoted, sorrowing sons,
and all,that mourn her departure.

Funeral of Mrs. Claude H. Lamb.
(Kennett News.)

The funeral of Mrs. Claude Fl,
Lamb, formerly of this county, but
late OF Hollywood. California, was
held at the home of her youngest son,
R. Iri Jones, in this city, Sunday, Oc-
tober End, at 800 P, NJ, and interment
followed in the family lot in Oak
Ridge cemetery.
The body, accompanied by her
three sons, Lapgdon b.; Byron and
r. fri Jones, and the formers wife
and little son, and Byron's little
daughter, Roberta, who had been
summoned to her bedside before her
death, arrived here at, 5 O'Clock Sat-
urday evening, and was taken to the
home of R Irl, where it lay in state
until the hour of the funeral.
The funeral services were in charge
Of Rev. T. E. Smith, pastor of the
Kennett Methodist church, several
other ministers participating in the
service. Rev. N. B. Henry, once her
pastor and a lifelong friend Of the
deceased and family, preached the
funeral sermon.
The largest, most beautiful and
elaborate floral offering ever seen at
"a funeral here, attested the popular
ity of deceased, and was fitting tri-
butte to the memory of one who was
loved and admired by her entire cir
Gle of acquaintance who number many
in her own and many other states.
Rev. Henry furnished the press
with the following short sketch of
her life:
Hester Douglass LangdoD, a daugh-
ter Of Edwin j, and Sarah Glasscock
Langdon, was born at Cotton Plant,
Mo-, August 4, 1858. Judge Langdon
was one of the early settlers of Dunk
lin county and one of the most prom
inent and highly esteemed of her
citizens.
He had summer home in Arcadia
Valley, hence his children had the ad-
vantage OF the cultured society
springing out Of Arcadia High School

have been SO effective in Kansas City.
He has also professed admiration for
the lawless tactics and practice of
Capt. Singer of disagreeable memor !.
Mr.. Shupp is, of course, a prohibi-
ton fanatic, and as such, especially
when INDUCED by the head of our
Police Department and the Governor
of the State, is possibly greater
menace than any violator of the pro-
hibition laws. For the prohibition
fanatics, though they cloak their in
tolerance with fatuous appeals for re-
spect for the law, have no respect
for any law except the prohibition
law. The only article in the Consti-
tuition that they care about is the
eighteenth amendment, for the en-
forcement of which they are not only
willing, but insistent, that the bill of
rights be abolished.
The search warrant is fundament-
al safeguard, developed by long and
bitter experience as necessary safe
guard for the protection of the cit
izen's home and person against official
tyranny. Should that bulwark be de-
stroyed-as it has been in some in
stances, and as the fanatics in Con-
gress are now attempting to destroy
it nationally-the consequences would
be tragic We sh ould have reign of
terror, in the name of prohibition,
with misguided gentlemen like Mr..
Shupp in the role of terrorists. In
the end of this bulwark would be re-
stored, if liberty were to survive,
though before its restoration there
would likely be trough shod methods"
such as Mr.. Shupp and his fellow
fanatics do not contemplate.
1t is just as imperative that the pro-
hibition fanatics respect all laws as
that the rest of us observe the prohi-
bition law. Public opinion has look
ed upon the hysteria of prohibition
fanaticism with curiosity and amuse-
ment, but that phase is passing. In
the debate on the antibeer bill before
Congress took it's vacation, Senator
Ashurst of Arizona-a prohibitionist,
himself-served notice that he was
ready to resist any officer who under
took to search his home or motor car
or person without q warrant. In that
position he is upheld by the intent of
the Constitution of the United States,
and so~is every other citizen.
When the American people dispense
with the search warrant and subp =
supinely to any indignity or outrage
which prohibition fanaticism may inn
pose, then we shall have surrendered
our democracy for the theocracy
which the Bryans, Wheelers, Ander-
sons and Shupps are trying-unwit-
tingly, perhaps-to establish.

A New Automobile Law.

AT the special session of the Legis-
lature last summer a new law was
passed relative to the sale and trans
fer of automobiles, which becomes
effective November 2, next, and which
is intended to stamp out the sale and
handling of stolen automobiles. Each
car owner has the benefit and pro-
lection of the Missouri Motor Vehicle
department issuing a certificate of
ownership from the Motor Vehicle
Department of the State, for which
one dollar will be charged. This GER
tifcate must be referred to in ali
future transaction, in which the car
figures.
Every owner in Missouri must
register his car with the department,
giving full description of the car,
it's record, and its right numbers, and
in the future no transfer shall be
made in the state without the owner
showing and proving ownership right
fully, and assignment must be made
on the back of the certificate of own
ership, record of which transfer to be
made with the Motor Vehicle Depart
ment at Jefferson City, at cost of
one dollar, with application. In
spectors will be placed in the field to
enforce compliance with the law
The sale of motor car in Missouri
after this law becomes effective with
out the transfer of the registered GER
tiicate of ownership, will be illegal,
and the sale itself become an act of
fraud.

Washington Correspondence.

WASHINGTON, D. o.. Oct. 8.-Demo-
Gratis in Congress are hoping for the
success of the coming conference for
reduction Of armaments. They very
properly take pride in it as a Demo-
cratic achievement. Those who think
Of it as Republican move for popular
approval have forgotten, in the hurly-
burly of events, the history of the
movement. A brief outline of that
history will show that President
Harding did not discover the idea,
any more than Doctor Sawyer has
discovered cure for golf.
As recently as last Spring the Presi-
dent was much upset by Senator
Borah's resolution directing him to
call such conferences. And the
latter did not himself discover the
idea, any more than Laddie Boy dis
covered the Dog Star
The whole idea of such confer
ence to reduce the terrible burden o1
armaments is Democratic. Champ
Clark preached 1t off and on fol
twenty five years, but it took an
other Missouri Democrat to put th,
concrete idea into the Naval Bill ii
9l6-fiye years ago. It was fire
offered by Representative Walter 1
Hensley. as resolution and was thel
incorporated in the Naval Appropria
tion Act Of 1915, and can be found il

Mr.. Hilburn in Louisiana.


Editor Register Trout is saw mill
town on the L. & A. Railroad and is
located in Lasalle Parish, State of
Louisiana.
I arrived here last Thursday. Sun
day we went down to Catahoula Lake.
Now in speaking of lake one natur-
ally thinks of water and Ne map
shows body of water about five by
thirty five miles. But there is no
water there. Absolutely none, and
there was number of autos running
over where the lake was and where
1t will be again when the winter
rains come. 1t is a beautiful place
to drive and an ideal place to learn to
drive car as there are about hun
dred and seventy-five square miles of
level ground to practice on. / didn't
know there was such place in the
state until I came to Trout. It looks
like large prairie Of the Kansas
variety only this one is almost alb
solutely level, to the best of my judg.
ment.
Well, Mr.. Editor, l see by the
papers that Mr., Harding in his ad-
dress to the members of the Industrial
League, or what ever else it might be
called, says there is to be no Hpatern-
alism." Shades of VIM. Mckinley! (!
Have the "Infant industries all been
waited on? Judge Ben B. Lindsey OF
Denver said "there is one law for the
rich and another for the poor" Judge
Lindsey meant the vice and liquor
laws. But the same applies also to
the laws on economics.
There is said to be now in this coun-
try, over six hundred thousand idle
men and women. A loss to the eoun-
try of nearly two million dollars daily.
And this great country has a govern
ment that is impotent, in the face of
this disaster. If the cholera were
killing two million dollars worth of
hogs, Mr.. Harding's government
could and would get busy. If the
Mississippi River was threatening to
destroy million dollars worth Of
farm crops Mr.. Harding could and
would get busy. In the interest of
"Big Business Mr.. Harding's ad-
ministration is trying to pass tariff
law, and reduce the excess profits
tax. Paternalism? The Republican
party knows nothing else. But not
for the worker, please, not for the
worker. But the workers are getting
what they voted for last November
and therefore suppose they are en-
joying the benefit of their grest wis
dom. If it were not SO serious it
wonld be amusing. The government
has called lot of experts to find out
how not to do any thing.
If it isn't government business to
look after the welfare of its citizens,
poor as well as rich, why spend the
country's money on bunch of ex.
perts and then tie their hands in the
beginning?
Didp't Frank P. Walsh's committee
make an exhaustive study of this
same subject some years ago and
make recommendations that were
ignored, just as the recommendations
OF this committee will be, if they
don't suit the power behind the
throne? If the question (which is
most valuable, sun or moonshine?"
should ever be brought before con-
gress committee of investigation
would have to be appointed before a
decision could be rendered. And yet
we are supposed to send our best
brains to Washington.
