WHERE ARE THEY?

A picture was published in The Herald of last Thursday which arrest ed the eyes and made one pause.
 A man is represented seated in a chair. thinking. His profile only is visible; his figure is almost entirely hidden by the back of the great chair in which he rests. Rests? The word is changed the moment it is written. For the man is not resting. Only his the profound depths of contemplation.
 From that picture comes solemn tion of honesty, traightforwardness earnestness, sits motionless before ness of human problems and mans inability to solve them successfully, but strong in determination to give all the power possessed toward doing mans human best in that position to which it has pleased God to call him.
 Where are the men today pictured representation of whom bring that deep feeling of admiration for the soul within the human body?
 It was the photograph of the Lin- coin Memorial to be dedicated May 30. The man pictured is Abraham Lincoln. The spirit felt is that of eternal greatness.

RADIO CONCERTS

Today there is nothing especially startling about hearing music as one walks along the street, coming, ap- parently, from some place where no music is being played. We have ceas- ed to wonder at hearing fine band se- lections, for instance, issuing from the open door of store. The photograph familiarized us with these things.
 So when we realize that concert is being transmitted to our ears by way of the wireless, the astonishment is not great The vital edge has been taken from the novelty by the com mon use of the phonograph.
 But the difference between the two phonograph and the wireless apparatus-is vast. Truly the one may be said to he old fashion ed; the other is the last word in pro- ress. The music or other sounds given out to the ear by the former, the photograph, may be music played long ago. That music may be typical of the dead past The tune it plays may be deep in forgotten grave by the time it is repeated for you It is a sound from the bygone days.
 What you hear over the wireless is what is being said, sung or played practically at the moment you hear it. Nothing may possibly be later than it. It is the postscript to progress telegram which brings that telegram down to the minute.
 The Herald is not boosting of hav- ing accomplished anything remark able in perfecting arrangements, so that it is able to give occasional eve hing wireless concerts for the benefit of those who care to stop in the Street IS they pass the Herald building and listen. It is glad to be able to bring to those who care to hear concerts being given in Pittsburgh, Springfield, Newark or Schnectady, thus exempli- ying the latest device which will some lay spread more general knowledge md pleasure throughout the world.

MODEL OF TRENCHES
 TO BE SHOWN HERE
Miniature Replica Of Front Near 'Yerdun on Exhibition Tuesday

Of particularly timely interest Is an exhibit of war time pictures and de- tall model of a portion of the trenches near Verdun which will be opened Memorial Day to continue through the week in the store formerly occupied by the Ashley Babcock company on Main street. Pictures often mean more to an individual than a written description a model conveys to the mind more graphic representation 'of bit of scenery. or a section of the war-torn front, than either pie lures or words. The leading figure iR the exhibit. which Is sponsored by the department of archives and history of the state of Tennessee is the model of GO acre area of the front. di- rectly before Chaumont and a few kil- metres from Verdun. The model Is fl by 30 feet and was made from mutilated paper money which had been crushed into pulp by the U. S. treasury department after 1t had been redeemed. It was made from meas urements and photos by Captain c. W. Beerworth of Nashville, Tenn, formerly with Canadian troops.
 Among the troops taking part in the battles from the very trenches represented were boys from the New England Division and it Is probable that many points in the model will be recognized by New Britain veterans Shell holes. camouflaged artillery. fire and communication trenches, blown up tanks. ruined woods. German pill boxes. German officers dugouts and those occupied by American barbed wire entanglements, machine gun positions, chevaux de frise-all are represented as they appeared whom U. s. troops took part in action there.
 The scaA of the model varies from three to five feet to the inch and 1t took the constructor over one year to make it up with the wealth of detail required. It is certain to be of in- terest to local veterans and their friends.
 In addition to the model some 5eo pictures of scenes at the front will be exhibited. There will be no admission charged to the exhibit, although those who wish will be allowed to donate.

here, as [ would have been only
too glad to give him all the info1
nation. we have on hand as tc
what our association has accom-
ipllshed, and would have been de
lighted for him to have verified
Iall OF these statements before he
returned home. as he no doubt
wants to give the tobacco grow
erS of your section all inforna-
ton as correctly as it is possible
to do so.
AS to the amount Of tobacco
which Our association has receiv-
ed and the number of pounds
sold on the outside by growers
who did not join our association.
the facts are as follows. We
have received in the association
Approximately 100000 pounds
and according to report from the
Commissioner OF Agriculture,
there was sold by growers on all
public markets in the State of
Kentucky, including Louisville.
up to the first of April 36,495, 900
pounds Of tobacco.
If Mr.. West had taken the trou
bic to send some one ;of the Of
flee Of the Commissioner of Apri-
culture, as we did to find out the
number of pounds sold on the
public market he would have
would have found in the 10000
OOO pounds reported that there
were 100000 of this amount
reported by the association as
having been sold during the
month OF February, and that 49, /
OO0OO0 were sold by SPECTATORS
and dealers.
You must not overlook the fact |
that when we began our organi-
zatlon work and the active sign
ing of contracts, our contract
sailed for us to secure at least
Is per cent of the 1920 crop, and
Of the 1920 crop were secured ap-
proximately IS per cent.
in regard to the association
buying the loose leaf warehouses
throughout the district, will say |
hat we have bought 123 out Of |
l50 houses, and the prices paid |
tor them have been on the basis i
Of what they are worth TODAY.
and not what it cost the owners
several years ago to build them
when construction costs were
arger than they are at the pres
mt time. The total purchase
orlce OF these plants will not cost
he members of our association |
n excess of one cent per pound
ng the next five years and at the
'er year, and the end Of the five /
ears they will be owned by the
nembers of the association in {
roportion to the amount each S
IAN has paid for them. The net {
esults of this, is that members t
iiil pay for these properties DUR {
Richmond daily register., 1922-05-29

end of that time will own the
property. While in the last three
or four years the growers have
paid for these loose leaf proper
ties with commissions they have
paid for selling their tobaccos,
and the deeds still remain in the
hands Of the warehouse owner.
No doubt this same condition pre-
walls III your section.
In Our organization campaign
we were careful to explain in de-
tail at all the public meetings, and
to each individual grower, the
exact method Of how these ware
house properties were to be
bought and paid for, and [ am
glad to say that most of them I'M
derstood it and are thoroughly
satisfied with the purchases.
Before we began to receive
any tobacco we had to borrow
SIS, 100000 from the banks with
which to make advances to the
members upon the delivery Of
their crops. We borrowed this
money from the louisville, Gin
cinnati and the local banks thru
out the territory on ninety day
notes, and made an advance Of
about eight cents average to the
members. Within 80 days after
we began to operate, we sold
enough to pay off all our indebt-
edness, and have several million
dollars to our credit in the banks.
What tobaccos we did not sell
and deliver in winter order, wei
redried and now have stored in
our large storage plants. On ac-
count of the depressed conditions
prevailing iii our territory before
the formation of the association,
we realized the Importance of |
another distribution to |
our members as soon as we;
thought it was good business tot
do SO. With the cash money we,
had on hand, and by putting tip /,
some Of Our warehouse receipts !,
as collateral, we borrowed suffi-
clent su1n OF money to enable us
to make another payment to the |
growers on May 20 of the same |
amount as was advanced to them
on the delivery of their tobacco,
md after doing this we will have
over 100000 pounds of tobac-
% which we have not used as
collateral.
If the growers of your section
,ould have been in any of the
owns Of the hurley district on
Saturday, May 20, so they could
lave seen the happy faces and the
general satisfaction among all OF
)ur members, | feel that no grow
r in the dark district would hes (
tate to sign a .eontract.y : p
In this connection / might add
hat a representative Of one of
he big buyers, who bought a
lrge quantity of tobacco from

e made the purchase that he be-
eyed in giving credit to whom it {
elonged, and that if Our associa-
ion had not been formed thatl
