PROHIBITION OFFICIALS

Letters from Sheriffs over the
State continue to arrive at prohibit
ton headquarters in Lexington, in
reply to a communication sent last
week to every Sheriff in the State
asking their cooperation in enforc-
ing State and National prohibition
laws. Several Sheriffs asked that
Federal agents be sent to their coun-
ties as soon as possible to assist local
authorities in a fight on illegal
whisky traffic.
Sheriff M. Peale Collier, of Bour-
bon county, sent the following reply:
Hasten to say that we are ready
to assist in the enforcement of the
prohibition laws at all times. We
will not only endeavor to locate and
arrest any of these lawbreakers our
selves, but will be glad to assist any
of your forces at any time"

Ed. THE NEWS:
The more 1 see of "the movies

wonderful educational value, and
with the fact that this educational
value, unavailed as it is to any great
extent, as yet, far more than coun-
terbalances any damage that may be
done to mind or morals by the occa-
sional tendency to something sensa-
tional, which tendency, it may be OBJ
served, is becoming more and more
rare.

burdened with the struggle for ex-
istence, leads the narrowest of lives.

ton of how the other half lives.
Thousands of people who, before the

imagination, roam through palaces.

wonderful scenes of nature, hobnob

Small wonder, then, that the

face of the vast educational fields
lying before them. 1 have visited
the Paris Grand many times, and

value, as they showed me scenes

Some of the news pictures" for in

would prohibit the sale of firearms
would disarm the citizen, thus en-
couraging banditry, a manufacturer
OF firearms has sent personal letters
to hundreds of voter urging them to
influence their representatives to

MAN wants but little here below"
You've often heard someone swear it,
The women only knows that it's so,
And that is why they wear it.
We've gotten back toward nor
macly far enough for a working man
to buy for about two dollars an
alarm clock which will wake him
early enough to go to work on time
provided he has a job.
Rules and regulations
AS We breast the strife
In our varied stations
Hamper us through life;
Bosses understand us
That is no mistake,
So they kindly hand us
Something We can break.
Some press clubs are made up of
men who have no connection what
ever with the press. More than one
Press Club has taken the name Of
the press and given the press a bad
name. And some college journal
ists' think most newspaper men are
not on to their jobs.
Other peoples troubles
Do not bother some.
They are just like bubbles
AS they go and come.
The garage man doubles
An attractive ear
Listens to your troubles
Like a perfect dear.
That our Frankfort friends do not
read Darwin is doubtless true-no
one cares to read about a hanging in
the family whether from one branch
or from many. But they do not read
theology, either. 1t is clear they
have never heard of the great philo-
sopher who remarked to an uppish
young person, "You must believe in
God, my dear child, in spite of all
the clergy"
Greatness, that is, reflected great
ness, has come to two Paris men by
reason of their birthdays happening
to come on the same day as that of
two great Americans. Theodore P.
("Toppy') Nix and former Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson both saw the
light of day on the same day in the
same year, and the natal days of
George Washington, 1.-THE first great
American" and Of Jake Elvove, of
Paris. were on February %. Toppy
has the advantage over Jake, in that
he can congratulate Woodrow,
whereas George is out of reach for
Jake in the way of personal COM
munications.

ing into the current month with an
October output schedule at least
rs per cent greater than the most
optimistic plans called for early in
the year.
. The significance attached to the
situation. It is pointed out, lies in the
fact that the definitely scheduled
program for the year called for not
less than a 100 per cent increase in
the domestic sales over last year.
With this figure having been
passed in approximately nine
months. It is conservatively pre-.
dicted that the whole 1922 volume
will run in the neighborhood OF rs
per cent greater than the 100 per
cent increase decided upon ten
months ago.
