 | Below is an open statement with regard to his candidacy and policies. The News is glad to submit the name of Dr. A. B. Bishop for your consid- eration:
 "To the Voters of Little River County:
 After continued solicitation from all parts of the county to make the race for County and Probate Judge, l take this means of saying to the voters that I am candidate subject | to Iue DGlllOCl dtlC pi oi IAoS ust 8th, 1922
 "In seeking this office I am fully conscious of the responsibility and i, the importance of this office. 1 con- sider this the most important office | in the county, for the handling Of the l finances of the county is big under taking. The countys money should be wisely and judiciously spent. A candidates fitness for this office should be based upon his ability to manage business affairs, and you can arrive at his ability only by the way he has managed his own affairs.
 came into your county to make my home in Nov, 1897. I have been a builder and constructor while here and have paid workmen much money for labor.
 Another very important part of the office is the Probate business. because the Probate Judge is really the agent i for the widows and the guardian for the orphans, both of whose interests i should be looked after in legal and Giligent manner, and I do not feel | tha, it will be necessary to seek ad- vice as to what my duties would be. T have no insinuations to make on any officer tc catch votes. If l kLeW 1 of anything that should be uncovered I would reveal it to tn Grand Jury. "I scorn the idea of taking the peoples money and buying automo- piles to look after the roads, and Ii elected. will have the two the county now owns sold and turn the money back to the respective funds from which it was taken. AS my opponents are all silent on thls point it might be very reasonably supposed that if elected they will keep them and still use them at the coun- | tvs expense. If 1 am elected 1 WILL use my own money in buying an automobile and keeping up the run ming expense of same.
 of elected I will, as l have always done, look after the interest Of the masses and not of the classes. Every vote I cast in the 1915 legislature was for the interest of the masses and not for the classes.

SPOTLIGHT ON SYRIAN LIFE
Writer Gives an Insight Into His Life as Small Boy in That Little
 Known Country.

The roads were open. Travellers came into our village. Scarcely a night was the guest house in our court yard unoccupied. I liked to sit with my father and his guests in this room, built after European style with four large windows over which in winter oiled paper was passed to keep the cold out. The walls of the guest room were white and on them were hung the choicest rugs brought back from Kurdistan by my Grandfather Mirza.
 There were chairs in this room. chairs, but l found them most uncOm- fortable to sit on. After a few mo- ments my legs began to ache and l slipped down on the cushions. In the alcOve of the guest chamber were some old manuscripts bound in course leather. They were holy books with H. luminated margins. Among them was a Bible in Syriac. I carefully refrained from touching 1t. It was too holy. l might perhaps be struck dead for my temerity.
 Among the travellers that came along the road was Hady, the singer. He was the ugliest man that I had ever seen, sore-eyed, pock-marked and dirty. But he was very wise. His ivory han dled dagger in it's silver sheath was so long that 1t reached from his chest to his hips. My playmates and would have laughed and jeered at him, per haps, it he had not carried this. dag ger.-Youel B. Mirza in Asia Maga- 1tnn

Carter De Haven and his charming
and pretty wife will be seen Thursday
at the Murray theatre in the Associat-
ed Exhibitors feature, Marry the
Poor Girl" which is said to be a farce
comedy of highly humorous moments
created by semi-embarrassing situa-
tions, all woven into a story of smart
American life.
The scene of the matrimonial mix
up is a houseparty on fashionable
Long Island, where to prevent gossip
about scandal that wasn't a scandal,
but certainly looked like one, two
couples shifted their partners in the
grand lottery of life-marriage.
Marry the Poor Girl" by the fa-
nous playwright, Owen Davis, was a
laughing success on the speaking
stage, and promises to be even funnier
on the screen.
