SWAT THE FLY
WHILE YOU CAN

The fly is one of the most despic-
able and dangerous pests with
which man has to contend. Fly
time is right here now and we must
make war, unrelenting war upon
him. He is not very easy to exter-
inmate, but it can be done. Stand
guard over all the garbage about
your premises, and swat every fly
that comes within your,screens.
The housefy brings typhoid fe-
yer germs on his feet and crawle
about on food depositing them in
his tracks.
Typhoid fever claims thousands
of victims every year, and yet the
germs are carried by the fly and is
a preventable disease.

POLITICS LOOKING UP
IN OLD BENTON


Much interest is centered in the
meeting of the County Democratic
Committee in Camden next Mon
day. The meeting will be held in
the Office of Clerk and Master G.
M. Leslie, who is chairman of the
committee.
A number of candidates have ale
ready signifed their Willingness to
serve the people. N. j. Cuff and
B. Cecil Harris will lock horns for
County Court Clerk and J. Finley
Lindsey, G. N. Matlock and j. G..
Hollingsworth have entered the
race for County Trustee. So. far
E. G. Flowers is the only announce
ed candidate for Sheriff; doubtless
he will have opposition. George
Gatewood is running "all by his
lonesome" for Register.
There is some talk that a woman
may get in the running as soon as
the committee meets and take &C.
ton. This is merely a rumor, and
we give it for what it is worth.
We are told that many women
who hesitated to vote in the gen.
eral election in November will not
let another opportunity go by and
fail to exercise their rights of suf-
frage.

G. N. MATLOCK.

In this issue of The Chronicle
we take pleasure in calling atten-
tiou to the announcement of @. n.
Matlock as a candidate for the Of
flee of Trustee Of Benton County.
Mr.. Matlock was anNaspirant for
this Office before the people two
years ago, but withdrew from the
race. He says he is in the game to
win, and will greatley appreciate
your vote and influence.
Mr.. Matlock hasn't been what
you might term an Office seeker,
but grew up on the farm and his
sympathies and interests have al
ways been identified with the far
mer and the laboring man.
Mr.. Matlock, as every one in the
first district knows, is hard work
ing, clever, good and valuable citi-
zen, and should the voters see prop
er to reward him, they will never
have cause to regret it. He plans
to make a thorough canvas of the
county and will endeaver to SEE
every voter in person.

RAID HOME
OF COUSIN EVERETT
Life-Sized Portrait of President
Sent TO Washington

Chicago. April 9.--The life size
portrait of President Warren G..
Harding. which occupied the posi-
ton of honor in the home of "Cou-
sin Everett" until it was seized by
secret service men, was shipped to
Washington.
Best wishes to fellow kins-
man" is the inscription on the pic
ture, which is to be scrutinized by
the president. The signature of the
president below the inscription is
said by Cousin Everett" to be gen.
uine, but it was closely examined by
the president to ascertain whether
or not he wrote il. Some of the Sc
cret service men believe the sigma
ture OF the president is genuine but
the inscription is forgery. They
maintain that when the person who
forged that greeting is found they
will be able to uncover nation
wide organization. which sought to
capitalize the name of Harding and
used Cousin Everett" as its dupe.
When the Harding home was
raided the secret service men found
many kilograms and letters and
pictures of cousin Everett" and
Pearl, the White House baby. The
latter photographs were autograph
ed From Pearl Harding, the White
House Baby" Some of the letters
and kilograms show that Cousin
Everett and Baby Pearl were be-
ing exploited in advance of their
visit TO the inauguration. There
are bundles of letters from girls
who congratulated Pearl on her
good fortune.
The raiding of the Harding home
was not without its thrills. Scores
of neighbors assembled as the Sc
cret service men worked and in the
height of the excitement Gamaliel
made his escape. Gamaliel is the
white and gray cat which Pearl re-
named in honor Of her illustrious
kinsman.
Meanwhile, Cousin Everett" Ian
guishes in the Jail at Woodstock.
ILL.,. and will remain there indefi-
nitely, or until his father, Ephraim
can be found and induced
stein. who has taken the defense of
Cousin Everett" says there is no
question OF his sanity and that his
mania manifests itself in supreme
egotism.

WAR RISK INQUIRY
STARTED BY DAWES

Washington, April 11.-Presi-
dent Harding asked his special COM
mission, headed by Charles G.
Dawes of Chicago, to make dill
gent inquiry. of government de-
partment heads in an effort to find
out just where the government ag-
encies have been lacking in au-
thority, neglectful or failing" in
caring for disabled service men. He
also asked that investigation be
made OF the abuses which have
developed"
The presidents request was in
the form of a statement which was
read at the first meeting OF the COM
mission by Mr.. Dawes, who called
on the president at the White House
The commission chairman announc-
ed that the presidents wishes would
be carried out to the letter and that
the inquiry would not be directed
into controversial or extended sub
jects.
II have asked you. to meet and
make an investigation of the adj
ministration of the law in caring for
the crippled and impaired soldiers
of the late world war" said the
presidents statement. There have
been numerous complaints that the
government is neglecting the be-.
coming care of these defenders, TO
whom it owes every consideration,
and there is further complaint that
there is hardness in dealing with
them and their claims which grew
out OF their service.
