IMPORTANT TO MEMBERS OF AR-
 KANSAS COTTON GROWERS ASSN.

For the information of the members
 of the Arkansas Cotton Growers Co.,
 operative Association the Boa1d of
 Directors and officers thought it advis-
 able to have some Membership Get
 Together Meetings" the purpose of
 which will be to discuss the plans and workings of the Cotton Association.
 These ,"Get Together Meetings" will
 be arranged in as many neighbor-
 hoods as possible and all members are i urged to be present and take part in
 the meeting. There will be speakers
 selected by the Association who will
 be able to, explain fully all details of
 the marketing of cotton, etc. It will
 be school of information and will 1 be very important that each member , attend and bring at least one non-
 member with him if possible, who
 might be interested in having the de-
 tails of the marketing system ex-
 plained. These meetings will be very | lmportant and instructive and you
 cannot afford to miss them. l trust you will assist us in making these
 meetings profitable and advantageous to all The date and place of such
 meetings will be given out a little llater. If there was ever time in the
 history of the cotton grower when he should arise to the full sense of his duty this the greatest undertaking ever launched for the financial well fare of the people of the South, it is now The cotton speculatOr who has
 grown wealthy buying your cotton cannot be expected to approve of our plan of selling and marketing, there fore, you may expect to hear great deal of propaganda being circulated |derogatory to the Association and it behooves the members to be on the alert and refute any false reports that may be circulated and this is one of the reasons We want you to attend these meetings and will so explain to you fully what We have done, what
 We expect to do, what success other state associations have had in the past year and why cooperation is the only solution for the cotton growers. If the members of the association are not loyal and in sympathy with the undertaking how can we expect the outsider to be. Our Association is not alone in this fight, but already eight other cotton states have organiz- ed and will be ready to market the cotton of their members this season and before another season we are sure every cotton state in the Union will be selling cotton through it's Association and when this is accom- plished We will have Cooperative Cotton Growers Organization which will be the strongest, largest and most beneficial of any farm organization in the South which will mean the saving of millions of dollars to the cotton growers in the South every year. Our members should be loyal and stand behind this great undertaking for in unity there is strength so We appeal to the members to continue to be pa tient and loyal and give us your hearty cooperation and support and success will be assured You will be notified of the Get To- gether Membership Meetings" places and dates in your county.

 SIXTH DISTRICT

M. E. Sandenon, attorney of Texark- ana, Ark, announces his candidacy for the office of Chancellor of the Sixth district, subject to the action f the Democratic Pr1- mary, to be held Augut 8, 1922.
 In announcing hls candidacy MT. San derson directs attention Of the voters to long successful career in tAe law, also to his splendid race of six years ago, when he was defeated by narrow margin Of 922 votes ln the district.
 Touching on qualifications for the of- flee, Mir. Sanderson declares the office de- mands a man of sound Judgment\ and ripe experience, in close touch with the people and in harmony with them. Impartial ad- ministration of the law is one of the\ main blanks in his platform. He has been in practice since 1906, and comes from one\ of the oldest and best known families in the state.
 Mir. Sanderson appeals to the vote of\ the women who now enjoy the right of suf- frage. He makes no promises or pledges that he cannot fulfill, and binds himself only to follow the law at all times in all cases, re- gardless of how it affects either one party or the other The consideration of each voter in the district is earnestly solicited.

Mid-year exams begin tomorrow
after which an entirely new schedule
will be introduced. AS part of the

be interesting, and may be used to
govern the school next term
The basket ball team went to
Cherryfield Friday night, and was
defeated, 6O-31, but the game was
more interesting than the score
shows. During the first six minutes
Cherryfield shot eleven baskets
while our men shot none. Not dis
couraged by this, the boys woke up
during the next period. Higgins
was our star man, caging ten baskets
and one foul, while Eaton Gagged five

ELLSWORTH FALLS.

Commencing next Sunday and for
the remaining winter months, both
Sunday school and preaching service
will be held Sunday afternoon. The
Sunday school will begin promptly at
Las, continuing for one hour, and
the preaching service will immedi-
ately follow. 1t is felt that this ar
rangement will be more advantages
GUS during the cold weather, en-
aiding more to attend both services
where before they have been able to
attend only one. The principal gain
is that it will enable Mr.. Brookes to
attend the Sunday school session.
Everybody is cordially invited to at
tend both services.
The funeral of George e. Davis
was held at the home Friday after
noon, attended by the family. Rev
George S. Brookes officiated Mr..

MORANG-ROBINSON co.
Incorporated to Take Over Growing
Business of MOrang Garage.

The Morang-Robinson Co., Inc,
has been organized, to take over, as
of January 1 of this year, the rap
idly-growing business of the C. L.
Morang garage.
The capital stock of the company
is 100000, of which 100000 is 8
per cent. preferred stock and
100000 is common stock. The
three directors of the corporation
are c. L. Morang, Harold A. Robin
son and DR.. Charles C. Knowlton.
Llewellyn G. Fortier is clerk. Mr.
Morang is president and treasurer of
the corporation, and Mr.. Robinson is
general manager.
The new corporation takes over
all the garage business and it's
branches conducted by Mr. Morang,
including the bodybuilding plant.
Two simple figures best illustrate
the growth of the business. In 1908
Mr.. Morang sold eleven cars; in
1921 he sold 462 cars, tractors and
trucks. The Morang garage was Sec
ond last year only to one Ford dealer
in Maine, in the sale of Ford pro-
ducts, and led all New England in
the sale of Ford tractors. The latter
fact speaks not only for the growth
| of the Morang garage, but for the
agricultural development.of this Sec
tion of Maine.
The bodybuilding plant of the
garage has also grown to large pro-
portions, and is now making truck
bodies for nearly all Ford dealers in
! Maine. Another product of this
plant that is rapidly coming to the
front is a new commercial wind
! shield, sales of which are growing
rapidly.
Mr.. Robinson, who remains with
! the new corporation as general
manager, has served in that capacity
| most successfully with the Morang
garage for the past six years. The
| incorporation of his name into the
| company is deserved recognition of
| the ability and interest he has shown
in building up the business.

TO SAVINGS DEposIToRs.
Banking Department Calls for Pre-
SontatiOn of Pass Books

Banking Department Calls for Pre-
sentatiOn of Pass Books.
The State banking department is
now engaged in the work Of verify
ing pass books of savings depositors
Of all trust companies and savings
banks located in Ellsworth. The
statutes provide that this verification
of pass books shall be made once in
every three years, and in addition to
the regular annual examinations of
all State banking institutions.
Bank Commissioner Fred F. Law
renee states that he has adopted the
practice of verifying the savings de-
posits of all trust companies and saw
ings banks of a city or section at
the same time, and by the uniform
method of calling in the pass books
for verification. This method has
proved very satisfactory>in other Sec
lions of the State, and is now being
used in Ellsworth.
The bank commissioner has issued
call notifying all savings de-
positors to either present their pass
books, or send them in by mail, to
the Hancock County savings bank
and the Union Trust Co. for verifi-
cation.
In verifying the pass books, a
representative of the banking de-
partment will be stationed at each
bank and will compare the pass
books as they come in for the pur-
pose of correcting any errors OF
i omissions in the accounts
AS this work is done for the bene.
fit of the depositors, the banking de-
partment should have the CO.
operation of all depositors in pre-.
senting their pass books on or be.

For many people an automobile is
a necessity. They need it in their
business, or they are located in isolat-
ed places, and must either live solitary
lives or provide this form of tran
sportation. There is no extravaganza
where such people own cars.
Others living on small incomes and
who have no ready money, yet feel
the automobile a necessity for other
reasons. Many young people living
in towns and cities, within easy walk
ing distance of everything, feel it
socially necessary to own car
whether they can afford it or not
Their friends have one and they feel
left ont without one. Or they can't
deny themselves any pleasures that
others are enjoying.
The fact that they have no spare
cash does not seem to bother them
much Even if the cautious banker
won't lend money on ear, they may

There are great many people who
hate to start in life in any small way.
They have cheerful confidence that
their income will soon expand, so
| why not get the enjoyment while
they are young? AS a result they
are constantly spending more than
they intend, and they fail to acquire
AZ independent position.
The possession of an automobile
before the owner can afford it, is
keeping many young people from
getting a start in life. An expenditure
for pleasure is not wise one unless
there is still left afterwards margin
for saving. Tue people who have tt

to bring them to the center of theil

Good Crop Low Prices.

Wisconsin growers of potatoes are
again confronted with huge crop
and prices as low as % cents bus
hel, and even less in some cases
While most of the things the farmer
buys are still high priced, he is forced
to sell his product for a price which
is doubtless way below the cost of
production.
Potatoes are too bulky to export. At
any rate they have never been export
ed to any material extent. Tie crop
has to be consumed at home When
the harvest is large, the price is sure
to BIZ low, IN fact the farmers usually
fare better when the yields are not
excessive, because prices are higher.
What is the remedy for all this?
Every family has to have potatoes.
They are a staple product which will
always be in demand often, there
viii be good profits in potatoes. Only
IN certain seasons is there an unwleldy
surplus. III the farmers could refrain
from selling the bulk of their crop in
the fall, probably the price returns
would be considerably better
But to hold potatoes, warehouses
are required and financing Is needed
This is problem for bankers aud for
organization. In some cases the n.
diyidual grower could meet the pro-
blem by himself, but warehouses arr
expensive and the problem can best
be met IN an organized way.
Here again Is the fundamental pro
blem of marketing which has not beer
solved. The Keen study which is now
being made of the marketing question
however, augurs well for the future
The problem of selling will be solved
when 1t is attacked in earnest. Flood
ing the potato market in early fal
with millions OF bushels will alwayl
mean losses II the crop is large
This Is the thing To be prevented

cAAncE EoR COOS spELlgRs

II anybody considers himself 100
per cent speller, try him on this SEN
tence, which several colleges have
found only 10 per cent Of their stu
dents could spell correctly: 1T is
agreeable to view the unparalleled EN-
barrassment Of a harassed peddler or
saddler sitting on a cemetery wall
gauging the symmetry of a skilfully
peeled potato" DIR. Johnson or Noah
Webster might go down on that. If
the truth must be told. It is really
doubtful whether anyone knows how
to spell all the words In the sentence,
says the TOrrington Register. Take
"skitfully," for instance. Some people
would put two "rs' in the first syl-
liable, and some dictionaries would
uphold them. 1t seems to be purely
a matter OF choosing your authority.
Then take "peddler" You can find the
word spelled Tor spelt, if you prefer
"peddler" or 'pedlar" In many old
books, and the latter spelling Is said to
be current yet in England. The simple
fact Is that for scores Of English words
there Is no established standard.
Wherefore there are no 100 per cent
spoilers, except possibly In communi-
ties that have only one spelling book
or dictionary.
