NEW FEELING
.AMONGNATIONS
Countries That Offered Un-
selfish Services Win Es-
TEEN, Says Coolidge.

Vice.Presidcnt Coolidge has departed
somewhat from Washington custom, in
this New Years message to the country,
through the medium Of the Christian
Statesman, official publication Of the Ma.
lional Reform Association, an organiza.
tion whose aim since 1868. in the admir-
alton Of Mr.. Lincoln, has been perpetu-
Iiion of Christian principles in the con-
duct Of the American government.
Says Mr.. Coolidge:
I'VE are coming into not only new
gear, but, without doubt, a new era. As
this message is written there is every
prospect that there is to be a new under
standing among nations based not on
force but on righteousness and on deep
cr comprehension of the teachings Of
Christian fellowship.
'Men reap what they sow. Their ac-
lions upon others arc followed by reac-
,ions upon themselves As il is with men,
SO it is with nations. Those who have
given up their resources and strength in
the service Of mankind have received as
a reward the friendship and esteem Of
other countries. Those who have been
grasping, pugnacioais and animated by a
desire for military glory have gathered as
a result the resentment and distrust Of
the world. There is great need for
better fellowship among the nations. a
great need for better understanding
among all mankind.
THE great service which America has
rendered to other nations is especially no.
iiceable in the Orient. II has been
America with all her enterprise and
Christian influence which has built hos
piials, provided schools, protected the
public health and brought men to a real
ization Of their common brotherhood.
I'VE read Of tree whose leaves are
for the healing Of the nations, a tree
which not only ministers to the mental
and moral welfare Of mankind, but which
in its growth has been great influence
IN public sanitation.
There are glad tidings which may
well be proclaimed al the opening Of
new year. the expression Of hope which
is not new, but Of realization which is
altogether new.
"All this is the expression Of a greater

SOY BEAN OIL MAY PROVE
INDUSTRY IN THE FUTURE

Figures on the importation of soy
bean oil, particularly from the ORR
ent, indicate the possibility of fu-
ture industry in this country, in the
opinion of specialists in the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
So far as the census statististics
show, no soy bean oil was manu-
featured in this country in 1919 or
1920, although several western oil
mills and southern cotton oil mills
crushed both imported and domestic
grown beans for oil in earlier years.
At the same time the importation
of oil for the year ending June 80,
1920, amounted to 195,773,594
pounds, valued at $25,233,59O. The
importations of soy bean oil cake
for the same period amounted to
16,273,785 pounds, valued at $4O8,-
1896. Beans were imported to the
amount of 4,022,552 pounds, valued
at $213,696. The absence of a soy
bean crushing industry in this coun-
try is ascribed by experts to the
rapid increase in acreage, which uses
practically all the beans for seed
ing, and to large per cent of acre
age utilized for pasture, silage and
forage. Y

Suing for Recovery
of Farm Sacrificed

Mr. ]. E. Mcconnell, by next
friend, J. A. Mcconnell, through his
attorney, Judge r. E. Maiden, has
instituted suit in chancery court for
the recovery of his farm, located at
Boydsville, recently sold by Mrs.
Mcconnell to Frank and Will Duna-
way, for $1,000.
Mr.. Mcconnell, who is old, blind
and deaf, alleges fraud in the trans
fer of the land. He alleges that af-
ter the sale his wife and daughter
left him in the road, homeless and
penniless, taking the proceeds of the
sale of the farm and going to Okla
homa.
Il will be remembered that some
two weeks ago masked men appear
ed at the Mcconnell home at Boyds-
vile and administered a whipping
to Mrs. Mcconnell, her daughter and
young man named Hall, and it was
following this visit of the masked
men that the Mcconnell farm was
sold. A son of the McConnell's had
been accused of stealing chickens;
he had been in Jail here and was
bailed out on Saturday, returning
to his home on Sunday night the
whipping was administered. After
the sale of the farm Mrs. Mcconnell,
her daughter and young Hall all left
the community.
The farm consists of 80 acres and
is said to be worth $4,000 or $4,000.
In addition to the 90-acre tract,
48-acre tract, was leased to the
Dunaways. The farm sold went for
only 81 900, which everyone claimed
was about one-fourth it's real value.

May 1921 Dryest
Since Year 1871

]. Pluvius almost deserted Nash
Vile during the month just ended,
says the Nashville Tennessean.
Never has there been so dry a
May on record, SO far as is shown
in records kept by Roscoe Mum,
prognosticator at the local weather
bureau, which date back through
1871. What happened previous to
that, Mr.. Nunn's records did not
show. The rainfall for May 1921
was only about one-fourth OF nor
NAL.
The month of May in 1897 came
very near being as dry, the RAIN
fall during that month being 1.22
inches while in the month just end
ing, it was LIS. In 1911, the month
was considered extra dry with pre-
cipitation of about 1.67 inches. In
1920, it reached 3.18 while in 1919
we had one Of the wetest Mays on
record, with 8.67 inches of rainfall.
But what has all this to do with
the most important question on
record-"When will it rain?"
The forecast for the week says
cool for the first part Of the week
and normal temperature and local
showers thereafter"
This, Mr.. Mum says, makes us
hopeful for wet weather before the
last of the week, while the first part
Of the week will break these hot
days a little bit.
There has been practically no
rain here since the showers May
1913, with the exception of slight
rainfall on May %.
