MT. VERNON.

A nice rain fell here Saturday even
ing. 1t was badly needed to soften
the ground and to refresh all vege-
tation. The rain was not general
one, only extending few miles. The
crops are very small, but clean.
Several fishing parties were out the
past week and the finny tribe suf-
fered very much.
H. l.. Sanders went 20 Heoer
Springs Friday after sweet potato
slips. He was accompanied by Wm
Hunter, E. E. Jones and Miss Tommic
Lee Smith. Besides securing the
slips the crowd enjoyed real fish
supper with Mr.. and Mrs. o. B.
Robbins of Heber Springs, returning
home at night. Mr.. Vautrain of
Heber certainly has an extensive po-
tato bed and is furnishing many thous-
and slips to the people. Crops along
the road were generally in good con-
dition, but small and in need of rain.
If the hard working and hustling
farmers need to go on a strike like
many are doing on public works the
country would go to the bad. But
they are patient, progressive peo-
pie and their interest should be up
held in the way of better prices for
what they raise to keep the public 60
ing.
The singing class here had num-
Der of visiting classes with them on
Sunday afternoon and some good
music was enjoyed by those present.
Judge Smith with his crew of road
workers and graders are in two miles
of town, coming our way and are
doing some fine road building. They
will go to the White county line east
of Mt. Vernon and will finish up here
this week, no doubt. Thanks TO
Judge Smith for the interest he is
taking in making good roads, which
are so much needed. Judge Smith
says he is going to request all truck
haulers to keep off the roads while
they are wet and muddy, just after
rains. This would help the roads
wonderfully and make them last much
longer.
Mrs. Elizabeth Jones is visitor
to Mrs. E. E. Jones.
Mr.. and Mrs. T. F. Rea, who were
week ago at the home of
the brides brother, Sidney Harris, one
mile south of town, by Rev. J. F.
Word, are now at their home here
They were highly entertained Monday
and Tuesday night by chivoreing
friends.
Mr.. Schneider, son-in-law of Jack
Rabore, has just come in from the oil
fields of Oklahoma and moved onto
the farm three miles north of town
bought of Mrs. o. B. Robbins and E.
E. Jones. This is a nice farm and
Mr.. Schneider, who is very progress
i've, will no doubt make it very at
tractive in the near future.
Mr.. Dow. the movie man, presented
the firsh show Of the season Saturday
night, "a Western Scene" at the air
dome.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. B. Addison went
to Searcy Monday to bring their
daughter, Miss Joyce home from Gal
loway College, where she has been at
tending school, taking a special course
in music and expression.
A. M. Ledbetter of Conway was
here the past week looking after the
training of his fine mare by Mr..
Wiseman, an old horse trainer from
Tennessee. He has also been training
Patty Ann" the fine blooded mare
belonging to DR.. L. c. Watson. Mr..
Wiseman has now gone to Monticello
with these two fast trotters to present
them on the track.
A fourth of July picnic is talked of
here by the S. l. A. members and no
doubt will be a reality.

This statement was made by
members Of the French delega-
ton as they crossed the channel to-
day on their way to attend the
meeting of the supreme council
tomorrow.
In the delegation which arrived
today were Premier BRAND, Mar
shal Foch and NJ. Bertholdt. the
latter CT the French office. Tho
Italian delegates are expected to
reach London tomorrow
NJ. BRAND was resolute and con-
confident as he talked today of
the French governments position,
which he said he already had made
clear in recent speeches.
The statement was made unre-
servcdly that the French govern
ment counted on allied support in
the occupation of the Ruhr, but If
the allies could not see their way
clear to give such support France
would advance alone.
1t was said that if Germanys
recent offer had not been designed
merely to gain time, it could have
been made month ago, instead
OF a week before the expiration Of
the reparations time limit; that
German public opinion would have
been brought to see the gravity
of the situation and the detcrmina-
ton of the allies to secure pay
ment by such an act as occupation
OF Ruhr.
The statement also was made
that. although military prepara-
lions Were complete, it would re-
quire some days TO arrange for
adequate food supplies for the
population in the unoccupied dis
trlct. The French intended, it was
said, to see that the people were
well fed.
The occupation of the coal field,
it was reported, would affect 9TH
or countries because Of. placing o
TAX on coal exports. and German
industries would be placed on the
same footing with other manufac-
turing countries, which now were
competing with the high coal
costs against Germany with low
fuel costs in deprecated marks.
