he was quoted as saying that he

UphoIds Vo!stead Act
Senator Frelinghuyscn, Republican
senatorial candidate to succeed him
self, has declared for law enforce-
mcnt and the upholding Of the Vol
stead Act. He stated in recent
campaign speech that if the constitu-
ton prohibits the Manufacture and
sale OF intoxicating beverages, any
modification that would permit beer
ana wines is null and void and UNI
constitutional, and that as long as
the 18th amendment remains a part
of the constitution, beer and hight
wines cannot be brought back. Those
who advocate them, he added, make
of themselves nullificationists.
In New York state the issue has
not been attracting particular atten-
ton in the gubernatorial race, al
though from the angle of congress
sional candidates substantial ma

wet SIDE.
Soldiers Bonus

considerable interest has developed
throughout the country in regard to
soldier bonus sentiment, which will
be expressed by referendum vote in
five states-C 1lfornia, Illinois, Iowa,
Kansas and Montana.

termine whether they desire an

PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS -
s's At THE K. Il. S. THIS WEEK

Realizing that children laboring un-
der handicap physically can not do
the best work the Keytesville High
School directors have put into opera
ton this week physical examinations
Doctors A. w. Zillman, ]. B. Stokes.
B. Hughes, L. o. Nye and Mr.. Reed
of the State Teachers College, Miss
Barney, home nursing instructor
Miss Mohs public school nurse are
doing the work. DR.. John A. Mich
ael is making the inspection of the
scholars teeth.
This examination on the first day
discovered many cases of adenoids
that are sadly in need of attention
One young girl was discovered to be
practically blind in one eye, and ii
is for such defects that these exam
nations are being held.
The reports will be made to the
several parents and it is hoped that
the different corrections are attended
to Immediately. There is no choice
of physicians who will do the work
this matter being left to the choice Of
the parents who are at liberty tc
employ their individual family physi.
clans.
In speaking with the principal Of
the school, o. L. Davis, the Courier
reporter learned that these recon-
mendations will be made only in>ths
cases that are really in need of at
tention, and he hopes that the par.
ents viii heed the warnings.
The school board are to be com
mended in this action, and in can bt
plainly seen that the corrections
made will have a tendency to make
higher scholarship possible in many
cases.

KEYTESvILLE HIGH SCHOOL
AGAIN WINS IN DEBATE

Last Friday night the Keytesville
High School met the debating team
from Marceline, and won, the deci-
sion being given by S. E. Smith,
Rural Education Instructor at the
State Teachers College at Kirksville.
The negative side of the question:
'tResolved that the principles of the
closed shop should prevail in Ameri-
can Industry" was presented by Miss
Virginia Woods and Raymond Dob
bins of Marceline high school.
The affirmative attack was led by
Miss Dorothy Richardson, followed
by Allie Mae Latham.
Rozelma Ewing gave a reading
1.-THE Missionary Box" that fairly
brought down the house. Several
musical numbers were presented and
well received by the audience.
Owing to the fact that the Metho-
dists were having one OF their meet
ing Friday night the debate was held
in the church after the services. A
large crowd was on hand to encour-
age the home team and the debate
went by without hitch.
Great credit should be given tc
Miss Willie 0. Moss, debating team
coach. Apparently she has produced
winning team.

THEY'E OFF IN A BUNCH IN
RACE FOR COURIER PRIZES
Today Marks Beginning Of Race-Only
One More Week Of First Period
Votes, After Which Time There is
Two and Half Weeks Left

They're off!
The bars are up, the track is clear
and everyone of the ambitious and
energetic candidates in The Charlton
Courier's prize contest has right OF
way" The preliminaries are now
over; the race for rich prizes, head
ed by that splendid 1922 model Ford
Sedan, worth s737.0O, is now on in
earnest.
In another column will be found
the published announcement OF the
relative standing of candidates up-to
Wednesday night of this week. Each
competitor has started in the race
with vim, determined to win OF know
the reason why, and the battle royal
in evidence is attracting county wide
attention.
Several Of the most aggressive can
didates have started in the race with
a goodly number of CLUBS" to their
credit, but the leaders of today do not
necessarily indicate the winners OF
any means, as four full weeks re-
main to bridge the chasm now exist
ing between the highest and those
further down the line
Don't Get Discouraged
Don't become discouraged because
YOU are not at the head of the list
in this weeks vote count.
The contest is just now in it's in
fancy and there is not a single can
didate who could not, if the proper
interest and effort were put into the
matter, secure enough votes and sub,
scriptions by this time next week
to be listed among the leaders.
Now is the time for those who are
competing in this race to make the
dust fly" Only one more week re-
mains after this Saturday night dur
ing which to secure the maximum
number of votes on subscriptions
one more week in which to win Oh
lose, for that Isl exactly what it
means. After January % there is a
material. decrease in thee seheRhle OF
votes and after February IL there is
stilp a further decline in the scale of
votes-in fact, it is almost cut in
hall.
Our best advice to those who wish
to win is to hurry every available
subscription to the campaign depart
ment now, while the big votes are in
effect. Not to do so simply means
that you are throwing away golden
chances to win-chances that may
bring you that Ford Sedan, worth
S737.OO, or something else equally at
tractive.
No Cutters Here
Candidates you are "off at the
post" now and the pace is growing
hot. Your ability and capacity have
been demonstrated. Can you finish
strong, as you have started, Win tne
keenest wit of Charlton County pit
ted against you? You most certain
ly can if your courage does not fail
you now. Who can finish victorious
in the face Of keen competition? If
we know character at all we reckon
that no such misery as a "quitter'
will appear among those who are
entered in The Courier's contest.
Certainly the winners will be en-
titled to admiration for defeating
such field and as certainly will COM
mendatiohs be due those who "die
game"
Get in the game with a shout, -for
you're off in bunch, and may the
best candidate win!

pen to think of, it will be all right
with the Carrollton outfit.
The first bill that we paid to this
concern was for the sum of $30.1O,
this for power and heat on the ma
chine for September. October bill
was $3.50; November, SLIPS; De-
cember, 1850; January, $18.55.
In September we protested and
were informed that we could not ex-
pect to get something for nothing.
That was the first month we were
here and business was not so very
good. Since then we've been going
some, working night and day and one
or two days when the good book says
we should have been home, and yet
we consumed in these busy months
less than half, and one month trifle
more than half of the first bill. The
average don't seem to hold up at all.
Notwithstanding what a meter may
read there is such a thing as an
average. During the month of
November we worked nearly all the
time possible. Every night in the
week, Sundays, and all day each day.
! The bill for that month was $16.60
for heat on the machine and power
for the presses, and yet that is only
S1.45 more than one-half the bill pre-
sented to this office Sept. 1-S30.1O.
Somebody good at figures may
show US where we are wrong, but
we can't see it at all.
The Courier is not looking for
something for nothing as one of the
Carrollton representatives put it up
to US, but there is something some
where that don't look good to us.
Now in regard to the electric light
bill, S5.40 for the month of Novem-
ber, We are not burning lights lon
ger now than in October, for when it
| gets the least bit dark in our home
we have to turn on the lights in order
to see to read. There are no small
children around to leave lights in all
rooms turned on, and we happen to
know that great economy is' practiced
at all times, and yet we have bill
for S5.40 for November.
The protest is general all about
Keytesville, and there are few who
would like to know the reason.
l. We would not go- on record as say
ing fiatfooted that the meters are all
wrong but we have our suspicious
that there are two meters in Keytes-
vile that are not slow-they are reg
istering all the juice that is consum-
ed and, oh, well, what's the use, if
you don't like the service take out
the wires and order the meter discon-
nected and burn gas or coal oil.
The Courier don't expect any relief
in this matter, but we can say most
any thing we please when backed up
by the bills-the receipted bills.

SOLD MEAT MARKET
AND RESTAURANT

Last Saturday Robert Tolles sold
his interest in the Tolles-G GottschaIk
meat market and restaurant, to his
partner, Fritz Gottschalk. This
firm has been doing business for
about year and enjoyed a good pat
ronage and it was quite surprise
when it was learned that they had
dissolved partnership. Mr.. Colts
chalk is unable to be here and attend
to the business so he decided to sell
the furniture and fixtures. We have
not learned just what Mr.. Tolles viii
do, but hope he viii again engage in
business here.

KEYTEsyILLE VS.. MENDoN

A large crowd of boys from this
city went to Mendon Friday night
for the purpose of playing basket
ball. They played alright, but ow-
ing to the size Of the building in
which they played the boys did not
have a very good chance to win. The
forwards for Keytesville were White
and Maclxie; center, Munsell; guards,
Neff and Thrash. The score was SO
to IL in favor Of Mendon. The bunch
from Here went in Maclie & Harlan's
truck and a very pleasant trip was
had in spite Of the fact that some
very rough roads were. encountered.

THAT CARROLLTON
OUTFIT AGAIN

The Courier had fully determined
some time since not to bother that
bunch over in Carrollton known as
the Carrollton Water Light and Tran
sit Company. We had arrived at
that conclusion because it does so
little good to go up again corpora
ton. One might just about as we'll
pay the bills when they come in and
make wish.
But the Courier has got to take no.
tice of the kick being registered all
about town and say something. In
this story we are going to take our
own bills (receipted) and show just
what they have done to US. In do
ing this we will be safe, within the
law, something that the Courier will
not have to skin back, in spite of
anything that these fellows over in
Carrollton may say or think.
In giving these figures the Courier
will attack the lighting system first,
for, while it is true that we use
Juice" for the linotype machine and
also for the presses, the amount used
varys from month according to the
amount of overtime we put in in tax
ing care of our growing business.
The lights for the home follow:
September, 1921 ....................-...S1.O 90
October, 1921 90
November, 1921 ............................S2.4 40
December, 1921 .--........................S4 ..S4.35
Well be afraid to look at the jan
uary, 1922, bill. Lets see, the De-
cember bill lacks As cents of being
twice what the November bill calls for
We haven't great establishment,
just little small house, and we use
practically two rooms. The lights
are very seldom on in two rooms at
the same time. We do not toast
bread, bake, cook, iron, or sleep by
electric light or power. This S4.35
bill looks fine and rotten and we've
got our own private opinion about it
it wouldn't look good in print.
The bills of the office for lights
for the same months follow:
September, 1921, .............-.......-. SO
October, 1921 ..............................$2.1O
November, 1921 1890
December, 1921 ............................S5.4 40
The December bill amounts to more
than twice what the September or
October bill comes to, and we were
buster in November than in Decem-
ber. The lights were used according
to time worked in the office for this
period. We fully realize it
is useless to kick. We dealing with a
corporation; in the end they'll do as
they please, anyway, and if you do
not like it, take out the lights and
install Delco systems, gasoline light
ing plants, most anything you hap
