Club enjoyed a rare treat We'd
nesday in the liberal supply of
black bass sent to the club by
F. H. Gordon from the lakes OF
Wisconsin.
While discussing the fish the
members of the club gave close
attention to the discussion of the

Madison. Some of the speakers
favored the special tax; others a
bond issue, while some felt that
any additional burden in the way
of taxation for road building at
this time would be unwise.
A committee was appointed to
investigate the road building sys-

A. r. Burnam will speak to the
club next week and give his inn

FALLING IRON GIVES
holland Deep CUT

Turley Noland, prominent far
mer of the Barnes Mill section,
received a very painful cut on his
+ ght arm just below the elbow
Saturday morning when a sheet
Of iron roofing fell from the roof
Of his barn, lnficting the injury.
The Sheet in falling struck Mr.
holland a glancing blow or a more
serious wound would have result
ed. AS it was the cut measured
nearly six. inches and. penetrated
to the bone. Mr.. holland lost a
great deal of blood and his life
was in danger from this. All Of
the tendons on the upper side of
the arm were cut as we'll as the
main artery. DR.. Williams was
called and hurried to the assist
ance of the family who were Civ
.ng all first aid relief possible.
At the time of the accident Sam
Long was on the roof of the barn
where he was putting the roofing
down. holland was just under
the caves when the sheet began
to slip and did not have time t.
ruin or dodge. If the blow had
not been glancing one his arm.
probably would have been sever.
ed. Heis doing as well as could
be expected and DIR. Williams
does not think he will lose his
arm although it will be of little
use forsa long while. After SO
long a tine the recovery is ex~
peetee to be complete.

BONUS BILL MAY
Be PASSED THURSDAY
Is Expectation In Senate But
Confidence IseFelt President
VIII Veto 1t
tBv Associated Press)

Washington, Aug. 31-A final
vote on the soldiers bonus bill
before adjournment Of the Sen
ate today appeared reasonably
certain. Passage Of the measure
is regarded as foregone CON
clusion but whether it will reach
the statute books is conceded by
its friends and foes alike to be
another question.
The treasury is apparently
confident that the president will
veto the bill if it passes as it
stands, because it fails to provide
a means of raising the revenue
needed to finance it.
AS amended the bill would be-
come effective next January 1st.
1t provides three optional plans
for veterans other than those
whose adjusted service pay
would not exceed $50. These
would be paid in cash. The op-
tions are: Adjusted service GER
ti6cates payable in 20 years or
sooner at death and containing
provisions for vocational training
aid at tie rate of Sis a day up
to total Of 40 per cent Of the
adiusteC service credit; aid in
purchasing a farm or home, the
total amount to range from SlCC
adjusted service credit if money
is advanced next year to 40 per
cent of adjusted service credit if
payment is made. in 1923 or
thereabouts.

PLENTY OF WORK IF
Strikes ARE SETTLED
(By Associated Press)

Louisville, Ky, Aug. 31-Pro-
vided the railroad and coal strike,
are settled, the coming winte
will find plenty of work for ev-
cry one, with the demand for la
Dor far exceeding the supply
This is the view taken Of the in
dustrial situation by Pat Filburn
state Inspector Of labor, who stat
ed TODAY that in his belief thirty
days after the strikes are settled
there will be a shortage of labor
the country over.
Kentucky, the labor inspector
believes, will feel the effects of d
want of labor strongly because at
present many men are being ship
ped to- Ohio and Pennsylvania to
work in steel plants and coal
mines.
Reports from the four field in
spectors over the state are to the
effect that there is a potentia
shortage Of workers and the cnf
of the strikes will find every mar
capable Of doing physical labor
being sought.
The United States Steel Cor
poration has just established :;
labor bureau in Louisville, Mr.
Filburn stated, and expects
keep an office here. until October
lst for the purpose Of obtaining
men for the mines it operates il
connection with its plants /;
Pennsylvania. Wages Gf so cent,
an hour, with free transportat Oh
are offered. Since the wage seal
for common laborers here is onl'
80 cents an hour the labor in
spector believes many will take
advantage of the offer.
In addition to the higher wage
scale, the workers are given a
Jour room house for So a month
and six room house for So d
month, with water and coal pro-
weed free. Already approx
mately 100, mostly negroes. have
Teen shipped.
Kentucky is being used as re-
crultlng place for labor because
to the fact Pennsylvania has de-
pended largely o nforeign labor
IN the past and these workers,
Mr.. Filburn said, are returning
to their native countries in large
numbers. At the present rate of
exchange, a savings of $1,000 in
American money means fortune
in some of the European coun-
tries and the returned laborers
are remaining in their old homes.
Also, restricted immigration
makes it difficult to obtain COM
mon labor as in the past.
When the railroad strike IS set
tied, Mr.. Fl burn believes, it will
be necessary to employ many adj
ditional men in order to catch up
with back work. The mines will
also run at top speed when plenty
of cars are available and the walk
out IS called off, he said.

CALVARY MEETING
IS INSPIRAT!ONAl

The meeting now in progress
at the Calvary Baptist church by
Rev. !. r Reynolds may be best
called an inspirational or conse-
Grafton meeting. 1t is not the
purpose of the preacher or the
church to make an extensive
evangelistic effort at this time.
Rev Reynolds is emphasizing an
=unreserved conservation to Gods
cause and the fundamental doc
trines OF the Bible. On last ev-
ening he preached helpful II
inspiring sermon from the fol
lowing text: Lay hold Of the
hope set before us, which we
have as an anchor of the soul !;
d hope both sure and steadfast
and entering into that which is
within the veil" Heb. 6:18-l9.
He Illustrated very forcefully the
surety and steadfastness of the
believers hope as anchosed in
Jesus Christ. While the effort is
being made to strengthen the
christian people, it is hoped that
some shall be saved in these SER
vices. Everyone is invited to at
tend the services which will con-
tinue each night this week.
Fairly large crowds are attend
ing.
