FRIDAY. JANUARY

The proposition OF the continuance
of the employment of a County Farm
Agent which was rejected by the Els
cal Court during the session of this
week seems 10 us TO be step back
ward. We do not have any personal
interest in the proposition or any in
dividual who may have, or In so far
as we know, who may hereafter BE-
an applicant for the position. We
have no desire>to offer any criticism,
being unadvised as to the exact rea-
sons for rejection of the proposition,
but we do have a very decided opinion
as to the very great good that might
result, that ought to result from the
help OF a good, wide-awake
helper of the farming class within
our County. 1t is an evident fact
that the services of one who knows,
one who has scientific knowledge Of
the needs of the tiller of the soil,
provided his advise. be followed,
would prove of inestimable value to
our agriculturists. His treatment Of
diseases OF both plant and animal
life, testing of soils and prescribing
the character and kind of fertilizers,
in fact the help to be afforded from
the services of a real County Agent
is almost invaluable. There is no
way by which an estimate may be
placed upon the services of con-
scientious and experienced County
Agent. We realize that it is very
very good time to practice economy,
but in some cases the practice of too
much economy may indeed prove to
be a waste. We believe that in the
case of employing a CountyAgent, or
ut least in Ohio County, the local gov
eminent is called upon to put up one
fourth, or $4,000 and that sum is
supplemented by the Federal and
State Governm ents in the amount of
$500. The matter of saving or ex-
pending, in so far as we are locally
concerned, does not amount to
SO very much after all, and
there are many ways by which
a County Agent could, and doubtless
would, be worth many times this
amount to Ohio County Farmers. We
freely allow that those who do not
favor the employment of a County
Agent have their reasons, we concede
that every individual, whether acting
for himself or for the whole people
has the right to do as he deems best.
Their opinion has been expressed and
we likewise take unit ouselves the
right 20 expression. If the action of
the Fiscal Court in rejecting the pro-
position of employing County
Agent is to be taken as evidence of
policy TO dispense with that service,
then We believe that the Court made
a very great mistake and are inclined
TO the opinion that it will be discov-
cred at an early date.

STRAY STREAKS

In so far as we know the electric
lights of this burg remained on dur

past low twelve when we hit the
straw, and when our wife yanked us
out at 1870 thereafter, the said lights
were still on.

newcomers to our town, taking our

QUAKE IN PANAMA
LEAVES CANAL SAFE

Panama. Jan. An earthquake
lasting about a minute occurred at
O'Clock this morning, shaking up the
city somewhat but doing no damage
either here or along the Panama
Canal. The center of the shock was
about sixty miles distant.
A heavy flood was registered IN
Gatun Lake between o'clock yes
terday afternoon and $3.50 o'clock
this morning, Ralph z. Kirkpatrick
in charge of the meteorological and
photographic bureau of the canal,
reported today. This made it nee
essary to open seven of the spillway
gates to let the water out, despite the
fact that four gates had been kept
hours. Mr.. Kirkpatrick added that
this has been the heaviest pressure
of water experienced since the open
ing of the canal.
The extraordinary volume of water
is attributed to the disturbed wealth
er conditions that have prevailed IN
the northern part of the western
Hemisphere in the last three weeks.
Panama now feeling the effects OF the
floods and storms that have occur
red to the north. There have been
heavy, continuous rains all over the
territory surrounding the canal dur
ing the past five days, such condi-
tions being very unusual just as the
dry season is about to begin.

US. WOMEN BAN
DECOLETTE At
RACES IN PARIS
Americans Disdain Smart Con.
tinental Habit Of Undressing
for Afternoon Functions.
BY C. r. BERTELLI,
Universal Service.

PARIS. June 12.-The quiet taste
and elegance Of the gowns of the
American women in the crowded
Chantilly paddock yesterday showed
In striking contrast to the extrava-
CANT styles worn by the French
mannequins and actresses who de-
scended to the bizarre even to the
extent OF putting beauty spots on
their knees.
Judging from the styles displayed
1t the races, the fashionable woman
Of today undresses for the afternoon
and dresses for theT evening, for
while the Rue de la Paix arbiters
decree a lace corsage covering for
dinner and ball gowns the robes
made for the races are bewildering-
backs and shoulders frequently bare
from the armpits to the waist.
The American women, however,
disdained the extremes. Mrs. Vim
cent Astor wore a pale yellow frock
Of creamy charmeuse with a wide
Tapping hat trimmed with rare lace
and flowers. She wore also dainty
open-worked sandals such as have
been popularized for smart wome n
by the famous Place Vendome boot
maker.
Mrs. Herman Oelrichs refused to
depart from the invariable black. her
gown being decorated with many
yards of costly chantilly lace.
Mrs. Axel Wichfeld's frock was Of
cream liberty satin and she was
wearing magnificent pearls. which
daxzled even the blase race habitues.
Mrs. John Drexel looked young
and cool in a black and white linen
gown underneath a wide hat trimm I'd
with roses. Mrs. Anthony Drexel
wore a lovely white organdie gown
and small smart toque.
Others noted were Mary Garden.

SKIRTS SHORT
ACCORDING To
PARIS MODELS
Four Inches From Ground Is
Style for Smartest Women
on Boulevards.
By ALICE LASGELIER.
Cosmopolitan News Service.

PARIS. June 12.-The Battle Of
the Skirts has about ended. Midin.
cites will still continue to show their
shapely legs for some days to come
for economical reasons, but fashion.
able women will heed the new de.
crees.
The long skirt now holds sway in
Paris for afternoon and evening wear
and at functions in the social world
skirts not more than four inches
from the ground are worn BY the
smartest women. The majority are
anklelength and often they sweep
the floor.
Many Of those long gowns show
the fact that the dressmaker has
been obliged to yield to the desire of
customers. Length In many cases
10 more apparent than real. The ac.
tual skirt stands at least six inches
from the ground. Flowing side pan.
els, elaborate fringes and filmy dram.
cries Of all kinds hang below the hon,
and necessitate careful usage on tho
part OF the wearer to avoid tripping.
For the tailor made to be worn in
town, skirts are a little longer and
quite narrow. For the country and
for sport. they are still short and
wide enough for easy movement.
Cloaks and mantles have, of cours.
shared the general tendency of skirts
and frocks.

STORM CAUSES
HEAVY DAMAGE
IN CLARENDON
Houses Unroofed and Crops
Suffer As Severe Gale
Sweeps County.

CLARENDON, Va. June IL
Thousands Of dollars worth Of dam
age was done TO crops in northern
Virginia as a result of the terrific
electrical storm which struck about
8 o'clock last night. In addition
many houses were unroofed in Ar
lington county, telephone and tele'
graph wires were torn down and the
poultry on many farms was killed.
The greatest damage to houses In
Arlington county was reported from
Helfs Bottom, below the Arlington
Radio station. Many of flimsy homes
in the Bottoms inhabited solely by
colored people were entirely blown
away. while roofs on scores of 9TH
ers were torn loose and blown about
over the country side.
Potomac river camps above the
Chain bridge also suffered heavily
as the result of the storm. Roofs
on the camps were blown off. while
screens and sidewalks were blown in
ward. causing the places to be inun.
dated in many cases.
Three canoes filled with young
men, who had made their way up to
Great Falls. were overturned while
the occupants were making their
way back TO their camp. but all held
fast to the overturned craft and fl
nally made their way to shore.
So far as could be learned there
was no loss Of life
Telephone and telegraph officials,
called out special repair crews last
night, with the result that most OF
the damaged lines were in Uorkip 0

Great Falls Chosen
by Harding for Home
If He'd Lost Race

The word Outstanding as 1t
does for the Intellectual onslaught
that is ever being made against
the workings of destiny-had a
part in bringing Great Falls and
a nations leader into a situation.
which, had it become reality, would
have been an affair Of moment.
But if this eff had ever be-
come reality. omeone other than
Warren G. Harding would be sit
ting in the presidential chair at
Washington and Great Falls would
have an added citizen from the
Buckeye state.
If Harding had not been a sue
cessful candidate in his Mst race
for the United States senate, the
lure of the west and of Great
Falls would have brought another
to try his luck in a new land.
For. according to a story told by
Charles Hubbard. prominent poll
teal leader Of Spokane, and init
mate personal friend of the presi-
dent, the latter had declared he
would sell his newspaper, the Ma
rion Star of Marion, O.. if he were
defeated, and come west to make
his home in a little city that had
always attracted him. When identi-
fled, the city was Great Falls.
This little anecdote vas brought
back to this city by a resident
who visited Mr.. Hubbard in Spo-
kane several days ago. 1t is a
fairly good testimonial to Mr..
Harding's reception here in 1915
when he received the impressions
that apparently have remained
with him since. He was at that
time campaigning for Hughes who
was republican candidate for
president. He was entertained here
by republican leaders in the Palm
room of Hotel Rainbow following
his address in the Grand theater.
