Then our Professor goes on to warn
us of our wv Non-Partisan League
what does he know about our Non-Par-
tisan League-more than u capital
istic" gentlemen have told him? the
clan of whom he reveals himself to be
working. Just then that one state
ment. Did he tell you what to beware
of in their principles? No nor do any
of the others-they don't want you to
hear that platform, they never give
you any sensible reason-for they have
none. They simply treat you like a
bunch of little children and say-look
out for the DOGGY man. he will get
you; and many of you-like the afore-
said children become properly scared
and refuse to listen to reason.
How many of you ever saw the N. p.
L. platform in print, how many ever
heard anyone talk aginst it who had
ever read it themselves. That reminds
me of a travelling salesman who ques-
toned ex-President Taft when he was
~lecturing against them If he had ever
read it-"Oh no" he says, but I've
heard lots about it,. Who is 1t fears
the N. P. l.. its the capitalistic gentle
men of our country who are mostly
Jews or their bench men. Why do they
fear it? because the N. P. L. state bank
ing proposition in time would deprive
these capitalistic gentlemen of their
golden goose and that's the only reason.
His excuse of false leadership is all
bosh for the farmers have it in their
power to choose their own leaders,
and be as well led as they choose.
When our c~apitalistic gentlemen
have such a cinch on the laws of u
government that all the money coined
has to go thru their banks for distri-
button, paying from " to / percent to
the government and loaning it out to
the farmers and business men at 10
percent and on top of that loaning
credit to five times the amount~of that
dollar, thereby getting so percent for
what they pay " to / percent to use,
do you believe they are not going to
lie and fight to protect that privilege?
And who will do their fighting-and
who the money to back 1t with?
the farmers of course. They call ev-
cry one "Bolshevicks" who do not sub
scribe to this state of affairs, just be-
cause it has obtained for many years
lin fact nearly ever since our civil
war-a Bolshevist any one who wants
any change in government. George
Washington and all the Pilgrims were
Bolshevicks too. The fact is they are
traitors, or would be If they claimed
allegiance to any country-but a Jew
never has a country-thats why he ex-
ploits them all.

Joplin, Mo.

The biggest thing tho Joplin Ro-
tary club has accomplished in my
opinion Is the originating and fos-
tering Of the ozark Fairgrounds as-
soclation, the first suggestion OF
which came from our present dis
trlct governor, Ross +. Burns, who
Is president Of the Fairgrounds as
sOCiatiOn.
Thousands Of tourists and vaCa-
J tionists seek these pleasure spots in
this area each summer. taking ad-
vantage OF the fine rock and con
crete roads. the clear spring water
the verdant hills and mountains, the
fine, clear, fishing streams, pleasure
resorts, and the soothing effect that
such beauty OF nature has upon
those who summer within its con-
fines. our season is so days longer
than I'm other playground areas and
the spirit of vaCatlonists is much In
favor Of the Ozark Fairgrounds.
The results of the work OF the
Ozark Fairgrounds association have
been many. The residents OF that
section have been thoroughly sold on
the great opportunities within their
grasp; they have awakened TO the
realization that they have been self
ishly enjoying advantages that
should be shared with millions OF
others; that they have more TO offer
than the bare rocks Of Colorado; the
short season Of the lakes, the over
crowded seaside resorts, and the
single attraction resorts Of tho rest
OF the United states. The efforts Of
these people have been put into one
great purpose. The feeling Of com
mon interest and fellowship has
sprung up and they are now intense
~ loyal TO the Ozarks. CONNER
clally, thousands have established
homes here, many are setting out
orchards, vineyards and berries, as
IL has been demonstrated that no
country eXCcls the Ozarks for de-
licious, ghly-flavored fruit. Some
day--and that real Million
aires who wish TO make names for
themselves will seek the OZarks to
establish great hostelries for the
entertainment OF men Of their Kind.
But for those Of moderate means,
looking for one-hundred -Ceuts-On-
the-dollar value for what they spend
for recreation will find what they
want in the Ozark Fairgrounds,
There should be no worry about arr
rangemcnts; all that Is necessary is
to come first TO the headquarters at
Sixth and Joplin streets in Joplin
and get started right. headquarters

Tulsa, Okla.

Probably the outstanding achieve
ment ~ the Tulsa Rotary club Is
the Tulsa Boys home. an institution
founded by Rotariaus and largely
supported by them, The home D.
located on South Detroit and con-
sists OF TWO large tw0-stOry houses
on. a 5O-foOt lot. In this home
youngsters who have been deprived
of homes because Of domestic tr0u-
bles OF parents or through other
causes are taken In, clothed. FED,
given adequate schooling and then
trained for positions in the business
world
A number OF boys who formerly
we're in this home arc now occu-
pylng important positions with local
oil companies. where they are max
ing good. In only rare Instances
have any OF these boys failed 20
take advantage Of the opportunity
offered them and shown lngrati-
tude.

for $4,000. II was started in a
residence situated on property
owned by the local Masonic bodies,

The Meaning of Rotary

must not be too unattaiunhlc, They
