LAW AND ORDER
ENFORCEMENT

Two weeks ago the Courier Jour
nal, OF Louisville, carried a lengthy
article written by its correspon dent
w. S. Hudson on the law and order
movement in Knox County. Else
where, may be read clipping cut
from the Lexington Herald on the
Same subject.
The outs'nnd'rs fact in the IN At
ter is, that Knox County is not only
cleaning her own stables but is also
arousing the desire in other COM
munities to do likewise. The finger
OF scorn which was turned against
the Mountain County has become the
finger of astonished approval. As
has been stated many times, KnoI
County has no monopoly on crime
but II has evidently become a pio-
neer along the lines OF how to save
men from themselves and the chief
OF the necessities is the arousing OF
the latent forces OF decency and civ
ic Righteousness which exist in the
county and their direction along the
sane lines of enforcement OF law and
order.
That the coming Circuit Court will
show a big difference there is not a
question.
The League has done great things
already and as its influence further
spreads, its methods will he adopted
by counties which are also sick of
fragrant crimes within their borders

BIG REAL ESTATE DEAL
John a. Black Property Bought

One OF the biggest single real es-
tate deals in years was consummsted
Thursday OF this week when John
A. Black, founder OF the National
Bank OF John A. Black, sold his 20
acre homestead to Guy l.. Dickinson
and w. NJ. Dishman. The deal in
cludes the beautiful Black home on
College Street and extends prscti-
cally to Allison Ave.
Due probably to sentimental rea-
sons. Mr.. Black has heretofore not
sold any Of this property which lies
in the center OF population Of the
city. The new owners. guided by
expediency and realizing that this
property may become an important
factor in the future growth OF Bar
bourville, have already determined
to cut 1t up and sell 1t in small
tracts.
Broadway, between the Hudson
and owen homes on Knox Street,
will be opened to Johnston Road
and High Street will be extended to
meet Boardway. 1t is understood
that two additional homes will at
once be built on College Street. The
construction is estimated to be
around $4O,OO0.OO, It is understood.
The Advocate has printed numer-
Gus articles in the past on the nee
essity OF cutting up some OF the pro-
perty now held so that more homes
may be built and a natural growth
in population stimulated. 1t is graf
flying to know that two scions Of the
old Barbourville stock have enough
faith in the future OF the city to put
up cold, hard cash to back their
faith

zens will admire your grit.

The flowers were beautiful as was
the needle work display.
The arrangement OF the poultry
display clear across the gym with
some FIVE rows Of birds in proper dlsr
play coops, decked in their prettiest
plumage, drew the attention OF every
one who entered the hall. Practi-
cally only three colors were shown,
red, white and barred, these being
the predominating strains raised in
this county, especially the X. ]. Red
and the white strains.
These birds were n distinct proof
OF what has been done and OF pro-
mise OF what will be done in making
Knox County a thorobred chicken
and egg producer. The condition Of
the whole display was one OF ideal
cleanliness.
The pupils Of w. Il. Carey, instruc
tor in manual training at u. II. S.
who is an expert along many lines Of
advanced agriculture, had on display
a model chicken housing plant which
will have to be adopted before we
get the best possible results from
chicken raising. The hen, like the
human, responds to good care and
such chicken houses with good
,oads over which to carry the eggs
to market) dotted all across and
thru Knox County would prove a big
thing financially.
Profs. Trosper, Burnett, Haun
and Robert Blair had charge Of the
sports which created much interest
and were ably conducted.

ed in that Gov. Ed Morrow could not

PROUD OF KNOX COUNTY

Irvine, Ky. Oct. Sth, 1921
The Advocate, Barbourville, Ky.
Gentlemen:
I enclose you the article from the
Lexington Herald. I wanted you to
see what the Blue Grass think Of the
people OF Knox County. am proud
Of Knox County and her good citizen
ship.
Yours truly,
Clarence @. Sproul.
From the Lexington Herald OF Fri
day, Oct. Z, fs21.
Representing neither the scary
but often unconvincing spooks of an
invisible empire nor that type Of VI
olence which would meet infractions
OF the law by direct action without
the sanction OF the law by direct ac-
tion without the sanction OF legal
authority, there is, in Knox County,
KY, an organization known as the
Public Morals and Law Enforcement
League that is dealing to outlawry a
heavy blow in straightforward, open
uncompromising manner which is
the way Of doing things in the noun
tains OF Kentucky.
Not so much does this league
seem to feel that its chief place In
the sun is that Of censor for the pub
lie morals. altho It's name in this
day, might lead one to suspect II.
But the reports say little OF the ef-
forts Of the organization to strain at
gnat or to govern private life. The
league does. however, insist upon a
strict enforcement OF existing laws
and since its existence. according to
recent news stories from Barbour
vile, lawlessness has been reduced
to a minimum in each county.
Before becoming a member OF the
Knox County league the following
pledges are taken:
1. BY reporting to the proper de-
partment all law infractions that the
icu6ut II tyihb W tOlICCl.
2. By accepting jury service when
called upon.
3. BY using the franchise to the
best Of ones knowledge and ability
toward bringing forth conditions as
pired by the league.
The league has a standing offer OF
$25 reward for information leading
10 the capture OF bootleggers or
moonshiners. Clean elections and
legislation to regulate the sale OF
firearms have been among the aims.
So great have been the effects that
in the opening OF the recent session
of the Knox Circuit Court a remark
able demonstration took place, con-
vircing the officers OF the law that
public sentiment was behind enforce
ment of the statues.
Such things are needed in Ken
lucky and elsewhere in the United
States and Knox County seems to
have gone a bit further than any
other locality in appreciatinG the pos
sibilities OF action and intelligent
! citizenship.

THE SCHOOL FAIR
A COMMENDABLE SUCCESS

The Knox County School Fair held
at Union College Friday and Satur-
day was a great success in spite OF
cold weather which the Weather
Man wished on the young people.
During Friday night the rain fell in
torrents and the outlook was not en-
couraging for Saturday the big day.
However, the rain god, looking down
from his water cart, bethought him
self OF the days when he was young
and turned of the spigot and the
rain ceased. Jupiter Pluvius at once
gave orders and the bright sunshine
' began to appear thru the clouds.
Knox County has a sturdy young
citizenship and they turned out in ex
rellent numbers by schools and were
soon making the old Public Square
ring with their joyous shouts, songs
and school yells. II was the day Of
the young folks and smiles played
over the faces Of: the grown-ups as
they witnessed these ebullitions Of
youthful spirits. which are as a tonic
to people who have found that life
is somewhat OF n grind with more OF
hard work than play in It.
Union College had been placed at
the disposal OF the Fair promoters
and both the grounds and the splen-
did gymnasium proved to be ideal
for the sports and the displays. DR..
Franklin is to be congratulated
on the spirit Of good fellowship and
progress he displayed in placing u.
G. Il their disposal.
The actual display of live stock
and raised products was fine and was
usual annual reminder OF what
Knox County can raise. When we
get good roads so that the farmers
may easily pass into town and back
home, there will be big development
in trucking which. with our splen-
did markets at the vraious coal min
ing ccnters.w go a long way toward
a greater prosperity.
Among the slogans that met the
eye was one headed:
PROSPERITY

children. One little miss was de-

feathers were glued on or the real

Among the displays OF vegetables
were the usual root crops, corn and

peppers. potatoes. The canned fruit
was very inviting in appearance.

LONDON. Sept. 24.-The Automo-

barometer of, the state of the
motoring industry. II Is interest
ing to note, therefore, that the num-

an increase of "a per cent compared
with 1920.
That more use Is being made of
cars and motorcycles is indicated by
the touring records of the A. A.
Applications for home routes havs
increased by 81 per cent over last
year, whilst the number of trip
tyques issued to members going
abroad has risen by 22 per cent.
Over $4,000 calls were made at
the London and area headquarters
by members and potential members
in connection with motoring mat
ters, during the four months ending
August 81.
Given no unexpected "depres-

the industry should soon be at "set
