REFORM SCHOOL DEFEATED
BY ROCHEPORT TO 2
Sergeant Duncan Pitches Boone
County Team to Victory
Yesterday.

The Rocheport baseball team defeated
the Missouri Reform School yesterday al
Rapp's Park in Rocheport by score Of
6 to 2. The game was played under
threatening skies and was called at the
end of the seventh inning because of
rain.
The contest was marked by the extra
ordinary pitching both Of Sergeant
Clarence Duncan of the r. o. 7. c. who
pitched for Rocheport, and of Kurt Of
the Reform School. The boys from
Boonville were unable to solve Duncan s
curves and in three different innings
he registered three strike outs. The Re-
form School pitcher, although only l6
years old, made a scarcely less remark
able showing.
Stewards two-base hit and a couple OF
errors brought in two counts for Roche
port in the first inning, and the Reform
School scored one run in the second on
errors. Rocheport scored three men in
the sixth. The Reform School scored one
run in the seventh on a twO-base hit and
two errors, and Rocheport registered one
just before the rain became so heavy as
to stop the game. Bob Rapp, owner of
the grounds, umpired the game

ADVERTISING IS
PEACE FACTOR,
SPEAKER SAYS
Well Planned Foreign Adver'
tising Promotes Inter-na-
tional Friendship
and Harmony.
FAIR DEALING is NEED
Untactful International Adver-
tiser Hurts Both His Own
and Fellow Citizens
Markets.

~ Oniteo TFess
MILWAUKEE, June l2.-Among the IL
tanic accomplishments of commercial ad-
ver,ising is that of establishing more
friendly relationships between nations,
asserted L. ]. Cunniff, Of tho McCann
Advertising Agency, Of Toronto, in ad-
dressing a great general session OF the
convention Of the Associated Advertis-
ing Clubs of the World here this fore
noon. A failure to understand the peo-
pie Of country when appealing to them
through advertising increases their mis-
conception of the advertiser and his TEL
low countrymen. and by the same token,
favorable experience with the advertising
and wares of another country tends to
create good will and more friendly rela-
tionships.
Much is being said at the world con-
vention of advertising, which opened
here yesterday, concerning the better un-
derstanding between nations which is
resulting from international trade, and
emphasis is laid upon the fact that truth
full advertising and fair and generous
dealing, as well as an understanding OF
the tastes and the customs of the people
dealt with, rapidly promote friendly feel
ing; and every advertiser who undertakes
to advertise in another country and miss
es the mark is assuming a grave response
bility, for he is making it harder for his
fellow countrymen to sell in that cOun-
try, while also failing to make his own
investment pay.
ADVERTISER ASSUMES A DUTY
"A company in one country which
enters the trading marts of another >
said Mr.. Cunniff, Assumes the duty
of studying the needs and preferences
of the people, and the responsibility Of
conducting its selling, its advertising and
other business transactions in a way
which will violate no traditions of this
country and which will please prospec-
tive purchasers in the new market.
"The right kind of international ad-
vertising does much to establish friendly
relationships between nations; the wrong
kind, just as much in the contrary d.
rection," he declared. "A firm which
advertises in foreign countries and is so
careless or ignorant as TO offend people
by its business methods or ifs advertising
messages. hurts not only its own mar
ket. but Injuries the efforts of all Of its
fellow citizens trying to market their
products in the same countries and rem
ders all similar efforts less effective, both
foreign and domestic.
QUITE EASY TO SUCCEED
at is quite easy to do the right thing.
II is not necessary to be skilled in dip
lomacy or schooled in International poll
tics to advertise successfully in a for
eign country. The matter is quite simple.

GEORGE w. LIVERMON

| shall not soon recover from
the great shock the news Of tl,c
death Of my very dear friend
gave me; I shall never forget him
and will bear his name and vir-
tues in deep affection. Since
young boyhood George Livermon
and 7 have been the closest o:
friends, more hike brothers. |
had for him real affection.
He was the son Of Mr.. Hartweii
Livermon, Of Roxobel, and his
wife, who was Miss Martha Wick.
He was born August 18th, 1856,
just a little more than year my
senior.
About twenty years ago, Dr..
A. G.. Liyermon and | accompan-
led him to what is now Scotland
County, when in her beautiful
country home he married Miss
Laura Johnson lady of great
talents and beautiful charms Of
mind and heart. She Isl a neice
of two Of my very good friends,
Rev Livingston johnson, q
strong Baptist preacher and Ar
chibald johnson, the able Edit
or Of Charity and Children.
Two beautiful daughters were
! born to them, and they bear the
good Bible names Ruth and Mar
tha They with their dear moth
tr are today in the darkness Of
grief, but their lives are pure
and good and they Know whence
will come the light that cheers.
] George Livermon was one Of
the county's ablest business men
and for years conducted a large
and prosperous business with his
brother, a. r. Livermon. at Rox
obel. Several years ago he NOV
ed to Norfolk and engaged in the
lumber business. He was at one
time connected with the Hamp-
ton Roads Paper Company. His
energy was untiring, his judg-
ment accurate, and as result he
leaves his family above want
AND ccncern.
In his Norfolk home he was :,

will be of untold blessing to
travellers and residents Of the ru-
raj districts still they are a men
ace. The roads are still infested
with speed maniacs, who not on
ly disregard their own safety
but cndanger the lives Of others,
and something must be done to
curb this craze, or else the toll
of lives from accidents upon the
highways owing to the good
roads will be greater than that
of any war in the history Of the
country.
Statistics show that in 1921
more than $4,000 people were
killed, over 100000 injured more
or l4.ss seriously, and at least
81 ,OOO, 100000 property loss re-
suited from motor accidents
alone. These accidents were no:
confined to grade crossings alone
but the majority occurred on the
highways on curves, at cross
roads, on steep grades, etc.
The State Highway Commits
sion is paying especial attention
to the elimination as far as pos
sible Of many Of the dangers by
placing signs to warn Of danger,
and is now preparing to install
upon the main highways a system
| Of flash signals at night, but all
; of these will be Of no avail if the
speed maniacs continue to disre-
gard all caution and continue to
rush ahead as Of old. Probably
ninety per cent Of the accidents
in motoring are due to reckless
driving and no matter how care
full one driver may be he is still
| at the mercy OF the reckless ones.
Coming nearer home, it is Wit
ally necessary that our own
town commissioners pass strin-
gent traffic ordinances to control
the travel and speed within tlla
town limits. Every car entering
Main Street in the business sec.
ton should be required to stol
and proceed with caution until
the turn is made. Only by tie
grace Of some unseen power has
there not already been some Ga
tai accidents, and it will be to-
late when the life of some va,
liable citizen is snuffed out. The

attention Of the commissioners
has been called to this time ana
again but for some reason moth
ing mas been done.
Traffic regulations may be irk-
some to some and considered Of
no necessity by others, but il
were far better to Inconvenience
a few and go against the wishes
of ohers than to sacrifice the life
or lives of valuable citizens,

THE NECESSITY OF
CLEANING UP

In recent charge to a grand
jury Judge Oliver H. Allen
stressed the necessity of "clean-
ing up; that is; clearing away
the rubbish that is not only men
ace to the welfare Of society, but
is a serious hindrance and draw
back to the development and up
building of the community and
the commonwealth. He said
further; II am not a preacher,
though l have been accused OF
delivering sermons to the juries.
l am somewhat Of lay preach
er. however, and [ think the
country needs more preachers OF
that kind. Our lives are SER
mons, and we will be judged by
the lives we lead. We are for
getting God he declared.
The judge stated further that
practically all crime was caused
by -iquor, and he declared that
but for the liquor cases on the
docket it could be emptied IN
half q day.
The judge is eterna}ly right in
that we need "clean-up' and
we need it right here at home !;
as the crimes and fatalities Of
the recent ten days forcibly ilu-
press upon us. If the good cit
zens of any community sit
quietly by and simply say we
need thus and so done we will
continue to go on in the same
old careless way. We need, as
the judge says, more sermons;
sermons exemplified in the lives
which are daily led and the in.
fluencc exerted by the example
Of individual citizens for there Is
no limit to the influence exerteC
by life rightly lived. Our respon
sibility is not only to live right
as individuals but to exert every
means in our power to see tha1
the community is kept clean ant
a wholesome atmosphere i:
thrown around the young men
and women Of the community
AS the judge said, we are |,

believe that responsibility rest
upon us to cleanup" that tn

ORIGINATED THE GOLD STAR
Medal Showing Appreciation of the Idea Is Presented to J. Nj.
 Buck of Omaha, Neb.

A medal purchased with funds given by the governors of many states, Gen eral Pershing and a hundred notables in civil and military circles, has been presented to J. M. Buck of Omaha, Neb., who originated the gold star which was placed on the caskets of all war dead to be returned to this cOun- try from European battefields.
 Omaha was distributing point for the United States graves registration service. After the federal agency be- gan to return bodies from overseas, thousands Of casketS passed through Omaha. Mir. Buck suggested to the Omaha American Legion that a gold star be placed on each soldiers casket. The Legion immediately accepted the idea and through the Legion's organi- zation, the custom of placing the star on all soldiers caskets in all parts of the United States was adopted
 Every contingent of soldier dead ar irving at Omaha was met at the rail way station by delegation from the American Legion. MT. Buck always accompanied the Legionnaires and su- pervised the placing of the stars on the caskets. The medal was presented Mir. Buck as an expression of appreci- ation of his work
