maintained that the whole of
Mashoe county was a rather small

spreads usually at the rate of five
miles a year against the wind and as
much as twenty miles with the

The |. II. Kent Co. has secured
the permission of II. ]. Long to
demonstrate the DeLayal Milking
Machine at the Churchill County
Fair on his herd of A. r. o. Hol-
stems. The name of DeLayal is one
to eonjure with in dairy matters,
since it carries with 1t the assurance
that nothing but a dependable ar

der the name. Mr.. Longs famous
herd of thorobreds will be one of the
show features of the fair and the
milking demonstration will be well
worth seeing.

COMMERCIAL CLUB Is
HOST TO COMMUNITY

The Commercial Club held open
house last Monday evening at the
Club rooms over the Palace The
ater and the invitation was accepted
by a representative Fallon crowd OF
members and their families, with a
liberal sprinkling of potential mem
bers.
Ihe evenings program opened
with several musical numbers by To-
cal talent, among whom were a
quartette consisting OF Messrs
Davis, Forsythe, Laveaga and Bel
linger, Miss Mary Oats favored with
piano selections, and Mrs. Harrison
smith, who possesses a sweet voice
gave couple of appreciated solos.
Harold johnson contributed violin
solo to the pleasure of the evening
and Harmon's orchestra furnished
the music for the impromptu dance
that wound up the program.
During the evening the expert
ment OF community singing was
tried and songs set to popular airs
were more or less rendered" by the
company, which fortunately contain
ed a sufficient number who could
carry a tune to render the air
distinguishable above the general
volume of noise contributed by the
majority. However, it was a lot of
fun and heartily enjoyed.
At the conclusion of the program
everyone was served with a liberal
helping of either cantaloupe or wa
termelon. Altogether it was most
enjoyable affair and the hope was
unanimously expressed that the Club
make a habit of calling the people
together at least once a month for
an informal social meeting.

STATESNEN OF WORLD FACE HUGE TASK IN CUTTING DOWN. ARMS

Washfngton, Oct, 19r Statesmen tVxtd naval experts meeting to arrange ! dor curta1ing the world navies would have had @ much easier time if they had staged their conference sback in John Paul Jones day, or even hAn Farragut's. It wasn't so compli- fOated then. Just look what they have Ito know about today:
 i Battle cruisers, battleShipS nght cruisers, destroyers, submarines. air kplane carriers, Is to 20-inch guns, Fand nearly a million lesser details, all
 different.
 John Paul Jones or Farragut didn't need a card index and a f1otilla of ksyeomen clerks to keep track of the kdiferent kinds of fighting ships he ihad to depend on. John and the ad- mirals of his day had only three major classes of ships.
 Three Major Glasses. These were: The ship of the line which was the equivalent to our bat ftleship of today; the frigate, or what would be a modern cruiser. and the sloop of war, or corvette, which was ] a light cruising vessel These three clasSeS made up the navies of the 1 world up to Farragut's day, in the Civil War.
 To further simplify matters, ships were ranked according to their guns, the guns being arranged in tiers in the ships sides. Ships of the line
 carried from "A guns to 120 and were known as '74s' or "120's," aIthoush
 they always carried more guns than

they were credited with. As a further guide the gun tiers were marked by broad white bars around the ship lengthwfse. The most ignorant look out man in the tops could tell instant ly whether a vessel "in the of1ng'' was a formidable line ship or mere iy a light scout by the number of bands. Today 1t takes a naval officer Gnd perhaps a. book of silhouetted shapes of vessels to identify another lighting ship on the horizon.
 Guns All Simple
 The guns of those days were like wise simple. Instead of the 16-inch and perhaps 20-inch monsters of to- day, arranged in hooded turrets along the deck, the guns of 100 years ago and less were mostly either the Hong gun" or the 'carronade." The former was used for heavy work. while car ronades were for short range and had something of the effect of a large shotgun. Where today the gun pointer has to do most of his aiming Sly abstrusa nIat h emhticaI caIlcula- tionS theg unnery of the old days was remarkable for its simplicity
 Let Ter Go!
 The pigtail-haired" gunner merely pointed his gun at the enemy point blank and let fly, He moved the gun up, down, right or left, with a. crow bar arrangement or ropes The usual way of finishing a naval battle was to run alongside the enemy, grapple your ship to his and fight 1t out on the decks.

20 MILLION KOREANS LOOK TO

Washington, Oct. 1S- Many inter- national observers consider Korea to be ':the Ireland of the Far East.''
 Because of this view and because a Korean Mission is now seeking per mission to inject the troublesome is- sue into the international conference here next month, the following article is of interest
 By HENRY CHUNG.
 The Disarmament and Pacific Con ference will have a far more irnpor- tant bearing upon the affairs Of the ence of two years ago. Att Paris it was 8 comparatively simple matter for Japan to gain her concessions in the Orient, as she had everything pre- arranged by secret agreements with the European Governments to sup port her claims. All that she had to do was to insist upon the fuEfllment of promises made to her by the Allies. The path of her diplomatic success at Washington will not be as smooth as 1t was at Paris.
 Korea to Become Issue.
 One of the questions that is bound to be brought up for discussion at the conference is the problem of what is to be done with Korea. Japanese diplomats no doubt, will put up their familiar argument that it Is a domes- tic affair to be settled between Korea and Japan. But, in this day and age. nations have a right to insist on fair settlement of the questions that dis turb the peace of the world.
 England has already extended the olive branch to her apparently irre- concilaible Ireland. In this connec- fact that the Korean question Is somewhat different from the domestic issues of other powers. Korea al present. is an Ireland with some 2oo.-
