Entertainment Committee Opens Campaign to Determine as to Whether County Will Support Attraction
CFrOm Wednesdays Daily)

Madame Schumann Heink, ac- knowledged as the worlds greatest contralto, will appear before Yava- pal county audience, at the Elks theater, if the plan of the entertain ment committee of the chamber of commerce and the management of the Elks theater is backed by the citizens of Prescott and the county.
 In other words, are there $50 people in Prescott and Yavapai sui ficiently interested in bringing real attractions to the Mile High city, who will purchase seats at the price of s per seat? That is the ques- ton asked at meeting of the en- tertainment committee yesterday and which must be answered within the next few days.
 A pre-advance sale of seats will be opened at the office of the cham Der of commerce on a date to be an nounced within the week Manager Charles Born of the Elks theater, in placing this matter before the com mittee, said:
 We are willing to have the honor of bringing Schumann-Heink to Prescott There will not be any money in it for us, but you have asked our cooperation in bringing stellar attractions and now you have it. II a guarantee of $50 seats at the rate of s plus the tax is made, Schumann- H Heink will appear at the Elks theater on either the 18th, 22nd or 23rd of December"
 A long cry has been sung in this city and vicinity for good music, members of the entertainment com mittee said yesterday; something out of the ordinary. and little removed from the Chautauqua. How often, they asked, have we heard, My, how I do miss the musical season." etc?
 The chamber of commerce com mittee pledged itself to try to put across the bringing of q few high class artists 10 this county, without the need of the county's citizens paying railroad fares either to Phoe- nix or the coast; and to give the ''stay-at-homes" a real treat. Those willing to help with the guaranty as above outlined are asked to telephone their names and the number of seats they will purchase to the chamber of commerce office at 180.
 Major Hedding, speaking for Whipple Barracks, said: q believe you can count on splendid co-opera- ton from the post. As soon as pos sible canvass will be made of the patients. At the officers meeting today, l was assured that every of ficer at the post would purchase at least one ticket, and in most cases there will be two and more"
 The chamber of commerce will ad- wise the towns throughout the coun- ty of its effort to secure Madame Schumann- Heink, and it is believed many people from Jerome, Clarkdale, Humboldt Mayer, Kirkland, Hill side and the surrounding towns will support the action of the committed

Kentucky Farms Need
Factory Efficiency

That the principle of efficiency is
just as important in the manage
ment of farm as in the manage
ment of a factory is the statement
of w. d. Nichols, head of the Farm
Management Department of the
State College of Agriculture. With
large corporations using increased
efforts in increasing the output of
their plants and even employing eff
ficiency experts to eliminate sources
of waste Kentucky farmers can well
afford to give considerable thought
to the Improvement of their farming
methods, said Mr.. Nichols.
In discussing the problem Of in
creasing the efficiency on the farm
during the coming year Prof. Mich
oils said, ''The wise Kentucky farm

The Social Season

The tang of midwinter air always
seems to put the kick into those So
cial pleasures that languish during
summer heats, and this season Of
the year sees many jolly gatherings
in homes and public halls. Social
life is great game, and you would
hardly know a lot of people while
they are under the spell Of its trans
formations.
Some folks who are sour and rusty
in their home surroundings, will
blossom out with sparkle and high
spirits at social occasion. In the
family circle they may answer the
home people with surly grunt. But
take them to an evening party, par
ticularly if persons of the opposite
sex are present, whom they wish to
please, and they display brilliant
conversational powers. Their viva
city surprises those who know their
grumpy ways at home.
Boys who were too tired to bring
in some wood and kindle up the kit
chen fire, will travel many miles to
learn the new dance steps. Girls
whose heads ached over their Latin,
may be able to remember long Sc
quonces Of cards at the bridge table
without apparent effort.
The normal desire OF the two
seyes for a meeting place is the mys-
terious stimulant that accounts for
many changes in temper. You could
not defeat it by closing up the dance
and card parties. In former days
when such pursuits were considered
wrong, the young people woul1 meet

Personal Relationships

Speaking of travelling statesmen,
a business man remarked the other
day that some Of them didn't seem
to be making any effort to sell their
goods. They would roll into town,
smiling all over, shaking hands with
y Everybody. You would think they
were capitalists going back to visit
the homes of their boyhood. But
in spite of apparent lack of effort,
they would always get out of town,
with good fat sheaf Of orders.
1T asked one Of those fellows the
other day how he did it," said the
merchant, who was speaking, and
"th5ught it would help me in my bus
iness."
"'Well, I tell you how I did it,
was the reply / got. 4 started out in
this game ten years ago with the
idea of knowing everybody along my
route. I'd shake hands with the
errand boy with just as much en-
thusiasm as with the boss. I took
pains to know them all by name
I'D stop and talk business with
the greenest clerk in the store. Not
jollies and bull, but business talk,
and tell them how they could sell
huff. Now a lot of these fellows
are store managers and SOME OF
them own stores, and all of 'em
throw business my way"
This little story of one mans sue
cess may have suggestions for bust
ness men and ambitious young fell
lows here in Mt. Sterling.
The success of business depends
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1921-02-24

upon the number of personal friends
it can make. Time spent in cult
waiting friendship with people who
come into Mt. Sterling from outside,
is very well invested. Every new
face and name you can remember,
every stranger who is made to feel
that his interests are carefully con-
sidered when he buys stuff in this
city, means one more permanent
customer for the store, and one
more family which looks to this
community as its trading center.
The people who buy in distant
cities and send away to mail order
houses, forget the value of these
prsonal relations. When they buy in
their home towns or natural trading
centers, they form relations with a
group Of men who value them as reg
ular customers, and take special
pains to please them. Such business
friendships prove valuable in unex-
pected ways, and are often the
means of opening up new paths to
success.

it became necessary for the boys to

The fault of social life is that its
favors are so unevenly distributed.
The popular girl with her pretty face
and agile tongue, gets SO many in
virations that she may spoil her
youth with late hours and frivolous
ideas. Meanwhile many quiet and re-
served young people, who need So
cial attention to bring out their fine
powers, miss the chance for self-de-
yeloplnent that wholesome society

the barn done away with.
Proper planning Of the barn is an
important factor in increasing the
farm efficiency. The silo should be
placed as close as possible to the
point Of feeding and deep hay loft
built above the feeding chutes
Dairymen can save many steps by
placing the dairy house as near the
barn as possible. Water should be
piped to the stock tank and the kit
chen thus saving the housewife many
unnecessary steps, said Mr.. Nichols.
Another factor which is important
in increasing the farm efficiency is
the proper shape of fields. Small,
poorly shaped fields may be rem
edied by the removing of unneces-
sary fences, thus making it possible
to practice economy in cultivation
and do faster work. Large, rectang-
ular fields are more economical for
working than small ones or these
that are triangular or square in
shape.

Pulaski County Leads
Standardization Work

With three distinct sections in the
county outlined and organized Pu-
laski County has taken the lead in
the poultry STANDARDIZATION work,
which is being conducted by the
State College of Agriculture in 70
different counties Of the state. The
breed which has been adopted as the
standard in that section of the state
is the Barred Plymouth Rock and
all breeders in the county whose
products reach the standard are ad-
mitted to membership in the Pulaski
County Barred Plymouth Rock As
ISOLATION. The three sections which
have been organized are the Sci
ence Hill, the Cumberland River and
the Somerset sections. The slogan,
which was adopted at the beginning
of the 1921 campaign by the Pulaski
breeders was "Bar the County"
A. P. Vaught is secretary Of the
Science Hill section, which is in the
northern part Of the county. As each
member pays his dues he is given a
number and this number is stamped
on each egg which the member sells.
At the present there are IL members
in this sectional organization and all
their eggs will be sold to the large
hatcheries in the northern part of
Kentucky and around Cincinnati.
The Cumberland River section,
which has headquarters at Burnside,
has 10 members at the present time,
and has already received orders for
1000 eggs. This section is in the
Southern part of the county and will
supply eggs to McCreary County,
which will be used by members Of
the boys and girls club and by the
miners. The Stearn's Coal Company
has placed the order for $500 eggs
for its employees. George Williams is
secretary of this section.
The Somerset section, Of which
Roy McDaniels is secretary, has just
recently been organized, but con-
tains 10 members already. Eggs
from this section win be used by
County Agent R. o. Bate, in coop
GRAFTON with local banks in further
ing the Standardization work in the
county in general.

The Medical Profession

for international honors for Major
General Gorgas, of the United
States Army, who died at that capt.
tai several months ago, and whose
remains we're more recently received
in this country for interment.
There may be some who will ques-
ton the advantage of posthumous
honors of this kind. General Cor
gas is dead, and his great career
is behind him. The French, English
and Belgians, who propose to erect
a monument in his honor, can do
nothing that he may know Of, and
yet it has always been the custom
of the English to pay tributes Of this
kind to distinguished public serv-
ants after their decease, and no
valid objection may be made to the
same.
The career Of General Gorgas was
quite fully reviewed in the news
papers and magazines at the time of
his death and that need not be re-
peated here. The English verdict
that he was zone of the great fig
ures of his generation" may not be
questioned. In Panama, fighting the
yellow fever mosquito, in Cuba do
ing the same thing, as Surgeon Cen
eral of the United States Army dur
ing the war, and later still risking
his life to launch scientific cam
paign to remedy sanitary conditions
in the fever-haunted countries Of
Northern South America, General
Gorgas rendered services to his
country and humanity that may with
great difficulty be overestimated.
The idea that suggests itself to the
newspapers in connection with these
posthumous honors for the deceas-
ed Surgeon General is more in the
way of contending for a better. re-
cognition Of the medical profession
than of discussing General Gorgas'
career. General Gorgas was the most
distinguished of the medical men
who rendered services to America
during the war, but there were hun
dreds of others who did fine work,
and many of them made personal
sacrifices of character not de-
manded of General Gorgas.
Lookii g back upon the s.ory of
America participation IN the great
war, the ayers have lits'. difficulty
il reiching the conclusion that the
work don" by American surgem
and physicians during the war ac-
complished more and has been APP
prec;ated less than that of any other
class Of our citizens. Surgeons with
incomes running up into the tens of
thousands of dollars annually left
their offices to serve as captains
and majors in the army. Others,
whose incomes were not so assured,
r;sked losing the work of years 70
answer their country's call. And
the work done was admirable. The
death rate in our armies, both in this
country and in France, was SNAIL,
and every soldier home from Europe
has something to say about the fine
work of the American medical inen.
And this brings us quickly to the
conclusion we wish to make. For
years there has been an agitation IN
this country for higher salaries for
school teachers, and the agitation
vas in worthy cause. Have not
many of us, in our zeal for improved
education, neglected the duty Of
bringing the compensation Of the
medical profession up to the point
that win enable America, in the flu
ture, as in the past, to secure a

HEAVY COTTON RECEIPTS.

Since the advance in COTTON in the
neighborhood of twenty cents receipts
have been very heavy, and quite nat
urally this has depressed the market.
The receipts at the ports yesterday
were 4O87O bales and the exports,
were 15,414 The receipts in the IN
terror towns were 55,26S bales, and
the sales were 37,O57 bales. In one
instance, there was an increased ac-
mutation of over 5000 bales at the
ports, or three times the exports and
at the interior towns over $4,000
bales, over the amount sold or NOV
ing from the interior towns to the
ports With these heavy receipts quite
naturally the buying power is not
sufficient to absorb, and again they
make even those who are inclined to
purchase feel there must be a great
deal of cotton on hand, and that the
farmers are willing to take present
prices for the staple.

derful day when her husband comes
back to confirm the death of his first
wife. This is only part of the story
but enough to give you the drift if
you failed to see the play. Miss Bunt-
ing, acted with the perfect natural
ness so difficult to attain and so
pleasing to those of us fed up on the
'affectation of so many lesser actress
es. And withal she quietly captivated
us with charm of her personality.
