HOUSE DOG BUSINESS
 IS LUCRATIVE IN ARK.
Raising These Animals For Sale Proves to Be Good Business
 In State.

Evening Shade. Ark, May 2t LP- Time was when the presence of a flock Of houn' dogs around the cabin .of an Arkansas countryman was re- garded as q sure sign of shiftless- mess and that the farmer was "trifin."
 Today, however, this has changed. For the hound dog made famous in song and story has become the means of surer prosperity for its raiser than corn or cotton. The hogs may run wild without care, but the log gets the best.
 If you travel through the Ozark hills and hear the booming voices of Ia group Of hounds you may conclude that some dog owner is plying his trade of training hounds for the market, A good hound today is worth up 10 $40 in the eastern mar ket. And q good pair of hounds will pay their keep within a few days through the fur they will capture.
 The market for hunds is active To- cally, This al appeared recently:
 Now is your chance to get a hound pup from the famous old heu' Jog of mine. Old Bell took eleven coons, seven possums and a mink in three nights last fall. Can trail and tree any varmint that ever ran on four legs"

Analyze Candy Which

Los Angeles, May 21 LPl-The re- suit of chemical analysis Of candy from which Aimee Somple McPher- son. widely known evangelist is said to have eaten shortly before she dis appeared while surf bathing at Ocean Park Tuesday afternoon, is awaited here today.
 Police developed this phase of the investigation yesterday after fol- lowing numerous theories, includ- ing the possible kidnapping of the evangelist by an underworld char actor who officers said took eXcep- tion to Mrs. McPherson's views on dance hall operations.
 Acting upon the possibility that the sweets may have contained some harmful element which would have rendered the evangelist helpless in the water, police ordered the an alysis and were told that q report would be made today.

SCHOOL FOR CHORUS
 GIRLS IS SUCCESS
And the Graduates Are Given
 Steady Employment

New York, May 21 LPp-"Chorus Girls for Hire" might be the sign hanging on the establishment of AL Ian K. Foster, whose business is providing dancers for musical com cdies and reyucs.
 For many years he was a stage director and some of his experiences led him into his present enterprise.
 Under his system, Foster takes girls and trains them. free of charge for a period of six to eight weeks Those who have developed and show promise of a good future, he then places under tive-ycar contracts, with salaries which mount until S10O week is paid the final year.
 Forty weeks employment a year Is guaranteed and one of the contract provisions is that every girl must save at least 10 per cent of her salary. The averageg chorus girl, working independently, has employ ment 20 weeks, it is estimated, and is not paid while rehearsing.
 Smoking and drinking, as well as stage door "Johnnies", are prohibit ed. Chaperones are provided to care for the girls socially and moral ly.
 Early in their training the girls are taught all forms of dancing, swimming, riding and fencing. Four hours each week are given over to learning new dances and specialties. At rehearsals, the girls wear blue dancing costumes, all uniform.
 Foster now has eight troupes- 16 girls in each--playing in revues, vaudeville and motion pictures in this and foreign countries. He con tracts for their services with pro- ducers and it is from the latter that he makes his money. For example, he now has a troupe in one of Shu- bert's revues under contract for two years.
 One of Fosters troubles as q di- rector was to have a girl become i'll, often making it necessary to replace her with someone unfamiliar with the show Another was 10 have about half the girls drop out when it was decided 10 send the produc- tion on the road.
 Under his system, he is ready ot replace any one of the troupers with another trained dancer and all of them are under contract to go any place In the world.

State Will Give Answer
The statement signed by the five
senator's follows:
North Dakota will give her answer
June 3Oth to the action of the stand
pat Republican-De democratic coalition
in defeating all genuine farm relief
legislation at this session of con
gress. The people of Narth Dakota
have SO consistently shown that they
cannot be fooled nor coerced by great
industrial and financial interests out
side OF the state, working through
their agents within the state, that
Progressives everywhere await with
confidence the nomination of Sena-
tor Gerald p. Nye, the Progressive
Republican candidate.
Senator Nye has given ample
proof during Il single session OF SER
vice that he has ability, courage,
and unwavering fidelity to his people
and to progressive principles. On
every roll call in the Senate he has
voted for the farmers Of his state and
for the common people of the ma
ton. He has shown that he cannot
be controlled by party bosses from
other states and that the cloak Of
party regularity behind which selfish
interests seek special privileges can
not blind him.
Ellis vigorous youth is an asset to
the progressive group in the senate
and his return to Washington would
strengthen and encourage the effort
which is being made to smash the
power or sectional interests over the
federal government. The special
interest type of Republican in the
senate is responsible for the defeat
of farm legislation as it is respon-
sible for Newberryism in political
campaigns and domination of the
peoples government by corporate
interests. Senator Nye has boldly
challenged this system in his able
speeches on the senate floor. lie
has won the full reliance and respect
of his progressive colleagues and
the fear and enmity of the party
bosses.
Must Keep Him In Senate
"If the great northwest is ulti-
mately to get justice and if the
Progressive movement is to go for
ward, faithful public servants of the
type of Senator Nye must be kept in
the senate. North Dakota has
magnificent opportunity on Wcdnes-
day to make her voice heard at
Washington, where her interests
have been ignored, and to encourage
pr0gressives throughout the nation"
