THE HUMAN TOUCH

You prefer newspaper to a mag azine?"
 Yes" said MT. Grumpson. "The girl on the cover of a magazine is rothing more than some artists con- oeption of beauty, but when you see the picture of pretty girl on the front page of a newspaper the read ing matter that accompanies her pho tosraph Is apt to be both instructive and entertaining"

Valuable Lesson

Barbour county, like the rest of the counties in the state, has had trying period of drouth," said Capt l.. Y. Dean. but there is one hopeful thing as far as weather conditions go, and that is the crops are worked out as clean as gardens and wnen the rains came, were ready for growth.
 Another good thing Is this crop will be record breaking one, as to the cost of production for the farmers have borrowed very little money and used only small amount of fertili- ger. They have gotten down to bed rock and what they make will be theirs"

ADMIT COMMUNFS
 PARTIAL FAILURE
(By the Associated Pressl

Riga, Latvla, Aug. l. (By Mall. )- Leon Trotzky, the Bolshevik war min ister in Russia, attempted to explain to the delegates composing the recent congress If the Third Internationale at Moscow the seeming contradiction in the acts of the Soviet leaders who are restoring a limited measure of capitalism in Russia while advocating, in speeches to the Internationale, the abolition of capital elsewhere.
 The Pravda quotes Trotzky as say. ing that compromises with capitalism were justified in Russia as the dicta- torship of the proletariat has been firmly established there, but that no compromises were allowable to Reds attempting to bring about revolution elsewhere
 The official Bolshevik viewpoint, as expressed ir speeches by Lenine and in their various newspapers, is that all changes being made in Russia, all con- cessions being granted to capital and all seeming digressions from a strict Communist policy are either made necessary by the poor economic condi- tion of the country or are essential

ASK DAILY SERVICE ON RURAL ROUTE s

Learning that mail service on ru- ral route No. 6 of Conway, which was recently ordered re-estabished by the postoftice department, will be only three times week instead of daily, many patrons of the route are request ing Postmaster G. F.. Owen to urge change in the order so that they will have daily service, such as is now provided on the five other routes lead ing out of Conway. Many of the per sons to be served on route No. 6 sub- scribe for daily papers, which they now receive by star route carriers, and the rural route of three times a week would not be as satisfactory to them .as the present service The route is one of the most populous in the vii 'cinity of Conway, it being estimated that about 200 families will be served by it. It was discontinued several years ago, after having had daily ser vice for about three years.
 The date for beginning service on No. 6 has been advanced one month and will begin on September 3, Post master Owen announced today. w. Ezra Hinkle, carrier on the Holland rural route, has been transferred and assigned to service on the Conway route.

CRIME WAVE BRINGS

Fear of Thieves and Robbers Causes Many People to Deposit Their
 Funds in Safe Banks.

 Uneasy ests the head, these days, Of the man or woman, who through careiessness or distrust of banking in stltutlons attempts to act as his own
 banker, and hide his hard-earned saw

 take the chance of prying eyes and
 would be thieves discovering their hidden treasure. Content to take the chance of being murdered rather than place confidence in the institution that are created to safeguard the
 wealth and savings of the public from

 phia, where the money was trans ferred to more secure place.
 Other interesting stories could no doubt be told by bankers, of people
 who have become uneasy over their hidden treasures, by reason of the wholesale murders and robberies that iare occurring daily, but it is part Iof their policy in safeguarding the ac- counts of the bank customers not to give out information regarding the bushes of a customer to the press or public, hence these stories cannot be secured It is known, however, that many people who have been in the habit of being their own bankers, have in the past few months, realized their danger, and placed their say ings in the banks of Philadelphia.
 In these times when thieving, mur- der and crime of all kinds is running
 rampant, 1t is well for those practc- ing the habit of keeping large sums of money around the place to stop and consider the removal of the temp tation to some bank, where steel, locks and alarms afford full protection to the treasure and at the same time remove the danger of being attacked by thugs who have learned the hiding | place and who would not stop at mur- der to obtain it.

They quickly picked up the three bodies of those who were killed instantly and placed them on the sta tion platform, and put the three other victims close by. One of the three women, Mir. Trail said, lived about 10 minutes. He thought at first that the little girl still was living, and carried the body to the station, but then re- alized, he said, that she was dead.
 As MT. Trail and his party worked among the victims of the crash a crowd quickly gathered. Among those who came to the scene were three physicians from Cabot, he said, who at once did everything possible to supply first aid to the two who sur vived temporarily.

pUsLIc cooPERArioN

In several recent issues the Inde-
pendent has tried to suggest some of
the purposes entertained by . good
community newspaper. It has tried
to make 1t clear that . newspaper II
not simply a business enterprise Of
the ordinary kind, but that It has cor.
tain functions to perform as . repre-
sentative OF the community.
It interprets that community to the
outside world. Also 1t is its duty to
ally itself with every force in the
community working for progress. It
must work to arouse public sentiment
IN favor OF all advance movements,
to distribute information that shall
familiarize the public with such ef-
forts, and try to convince the people
that they should cooperate with pro-
tects formed for the good Of the COM
munity.
No newspaper can perform these
functions efficiently and thoroughly
unless it has good public support and
the backing of the people and the
business men. The better financial
backing a newspaper gets, the more
actively it can work to help organize
community movements, and to spread
abroad In other places the impression
that its home town is an advancing
and wide awake modern town.
