THE ROLL OF DIsHONOR

Members of the American Legion
and others who served over seas in
the World War are awaiting with
interest the publication of the list
of "slackers"-those who evaded the
draft. 1t is recognized that quite
likely, after all the strenuous ef-
forts the War Department has made
to eliminate the names of men who
were not in reality slackers, there
may still be in the lists some who
went into the service from other
communities than those in which
they lived, and should not be re-
corded as draft evaders. The De-
parment has made every possible
effort, however, to ascertain all in
stances of this kind, and the only
apparent method left of clearing up
the records, freeing the innocent
from stain and bringing the guilty
to justice is to publish the names
and thus bring out further facts.
When the names are posted and
published locally, friends will be
able to give information that will
clear the innocent, and the members
of the American Legion are deter
mined to make a systematic effort
to run down those who failed to re-
spond to their country's call in time
of need,

$1,000 FOR HOL-
STEIN CALF CLUB

The Holssein Fresian Calf Club
offers a wonderful opportunity for
boy or girl to make an investment
which will give good returns to OBJ
tan some very valuable information
and experience in the care feeding
and management of dairy cact tie and
to get a good start with purebred
stock at a reasonable price.
A canvass has been made of the
schools but there are many boys iNd
girls under nine. cen years of age
who are not in school but should be
interested in the Calf Club
Every breeder of purebred Hol-
stems in the County should make it
his business to interese two or three
boys or girls in joining the Calf
Club.
The Fulton County Holstein Ere
sian Association was largely respon-
sible for the organization of the
Club and it mu5u have the help and
cooperation of the breeders in order
to be a success.
Calves must be obtained by May
first No calf to be over six months
old on that da e. Calves may be
obtained from untested herds but
such calves must be tested for
tuberculosis as soon as they are six
monhs old. Every boy who brings
calf that will have to be tested
should have an understanding to the
effect that he will no. have to pay
for the calf if it reacts to the tubar-
culosis test.
Mr. C. Grisier. Secretary of the
Fulton Coung Holstein Association
has promised to raise $4,000, to be
divided into four premiums as fol-
lows: $4,000, $780,. SIS 90,
$1,000, These premiums will be
given in addition to those given by
the Fair Board.
Any boy or girl that is interested
can join the club by calling up the
County Agents office.

SOCIETY AND UNDERWOOD
INTRIGUE IN THRILLER

Powerful, th1illing and jim the
same breath, tender, exquisite, can
truthfully be said of "The Money
Changers" which began its two
days engagement at the Princess
Theatre yesterday. 1t is BENJAMIN
B.. Hampton's newest. and we think,
his greatest production. He and
Upton Sinclair wrote the story
around a theme contained in Mr..
Sinclair's novel of the same name.
The picture commands interest at
the very start, quickly plunging in
to the story. winch introduces char
acters in New York's high society
and then shifts to Chinatown. There
we see the link between the upper
and under worlds. A financier of
high social standing worships the
god of money. He cares not that
the gold that overfows his Golfers
is at the dreadful cost of souls of
people to whom he illicitly sells
drugs in the mysterious, secret
mazes of Chinatown.
To expose the drug gang is the
ambition of an alert young news
paper reporter, whose articles have
caused falling off in sales and
thrown fear into the rings leaders.
The action leads fast and furiously
up to climax that for thrills and
suspense sets your blood pounding
and your nerves throbhing. It stirs
your emotions to fever heat.
"The Money Changers" also is not
lacking in romance, there" being
three and, uniquely, the one of the
ring leaders playthings is the more
exquisite and tender of the three.
The cast leaves nothing to be de-
sired, splendid performances being
rendered by Robert MdKim, Roy
Stewart, Claire Adams, Audrey
Chapman, George Webb, Edward
Peil and many others. The direc-
ton reflects great credit on Jack
Conway, Tuesday and Wednesday,
April 26-27th at the Princess.

A widespread effort will be made
this year, particularly in northern
Ohio, to determine whether Ohio
growers can improve their Yields
by producing northern grown certi-
fed seed potatoes rather than DO
tatoes from homegrown seed.
Ticks on sheep can easily be de-
stroyed by dipping all animals in
the flock a few weeks after the wool
has been clipped. Dipping at this
time allows the solution to reach the
skin, yet there is enough wool to
hold the dip on the ticks.
If the weather turns cold after
shearing, care should be taken 70
keep the animals from taking cold
Particular care should be given to
ewes that are sucking lambs. If
the ewes take cold at this time,
there is danger of the milk flow
being stopped.
Soybeans can be satisfactorily
raised without inoculating the seed,
but no nitrogen-fixing nodules are
produced on the roots unless the

field.
In furtherance of the campaign
for better seed, a meeting of potato
growers in IL northern Ohio counties
was held in Cleveland recently and

the Northern Ohio Potato Growers
Association was formed. The pur-
pose of the new association will be
the promotion of grades and stan,

nal arrangements for the big Pay-Up

closes February Sth.
You are also requested to bring
your credit book for the purpose of dis
cussing the ratings and correcting
same, and also for the purpose of list
ing any new customers moving into
the town and county.
1t is also very important to bring
along your check for the 1920 dues,
$500. The treasurer will need these
dues to pay the advertising campaign
that has been made in the interest of
this movement, and he cannot pay the
bills unless the membership fees are
paid and kept paid up promptly.
Several applications for membership
are also to be presented tonight, which
indication shows that there Is being
new life put into the members and also
into the merchants of the city. Those
members who have dropped out of the
association will be welcomed back to
the fold if thew will present them
selves at the meeting tonight, and If
they don't expect to be re-instated, If
they will return their credit book to
the secretary it will be greatly appre-
ciated.

BOY i|I}EIi iE|EIi E|,FEIF, A H|IF
WILL BE DETAILED EACH GUN
DAY AFTERNOON TO ASSIST IN
PLAY AT ANDREWS.

In order to prevent any dama..e to
playground equipment and to assist
the chrildren in proper play two MEM
bers of the local patrol of the Boy
Scouts will be detailed every Sunday
afternoon for the Andrews school
grounds between the hours of 2 and
o'clock. Within those hours the
grounds will be open to the children.
Considerable damage has been done
by rough playing to the equipment
placed on the grounds by the Junior
Red Cross. 1t is not desired to close
the grounds to the children, but in or
der to protect the property the happy
idea has occurred to Scout Master
Lee Thomas and Prof. Harris of the
schools that twoAboys be detailed every
Sunday afternoon in uniform to assist
in the play, help the children with
Boy Scout games and generally look
after the welfare Of the property 1t
will also be another evidence of the
value of the scouts to the people of
the community.

MUCH FREE WORK IS
DONE BY OFFICIALS
NO COSTS WILL BE RECEIVED BY
CLERK IN OVER 200 CASES
IN HIS COURT.

Few people have any idea of the
amount of free work that the circuit
court clerk must do under the present
fee system. During the little more
than two years that he has been in of.
flee, Joe Anderson, clerk of the cir
cult court, has rendered services in
no less than 23O cases for which he
will never get cent of compensation.
The clerks cost average in crimi.
nal case that goes to verdict about
Sc SO that Clerk Anderson has done
more than $1,000 worth of work for
which he has not been and never will
be paid.
Illustrating the fate of the sheriff
and the clerk in many cases recent
example. is cited. A citizen of the
first district was indicted for obstruct-
ing the public highway. There were
fifty-fiye witnesses summoned, for
which the clerk had to issue subpoe-
mas and do lot Of other work. The
