FAIR PLAY. STE. ;QENEVIEVE. MISSOURI. THE UNIVERSAL CAR The Ford car can well be called the "peoples car," because there arc more than 3,000,000 of them in daily operation. That is about four to one of the nearest follower in the motor car industry. This would not be so if the Ford car had not for sixteen years proven its superiority in service, in durability, and in the low cost for operation and maintenance; this would not be so if the Ford car was not so easy to understand, so simple in construction that anybody and everybody can safely drive it.

SATURDAY, APRIL 17, 1920 ONE YEAR I1.5C Entered at the Poatolllce at ate. Genevieve, Mo., as second-class mntl matter. JULES J. JvlJVIS, rttbllnhtr. Refl Cross Workers Have Funny Time Breckinridge Long, Assistant Secretary of State and Demo cratic candidate for United States Senator, will deliver the first speech in behalf of his cam paign out in Missouri at Mar shall, Saline county, Saturday afternoon, April 17. Long is spending the entire week out in the State on a visiting campaign and will meet the Democrats of Cole, Pettis, Henry, St. Clair, Polk, Greene, Barton. Vernon, Bates, Cass, Jackson and Buch anan -counties. Following the dinner given Monday night at the Planters Hotel in his honor. Long went to Jefferson City where- he met the State oflicinls and employees in the State de partment. Since Governor Gardner has announced that he would nob be a candidate for the Senate, a number of his close personal friends and supporters have openly expressed them selves in favor of Long's candi dacy. Sedalia, Windsor, Clin ton, Bolivar, Springfield, Lamar, Nevada, Butler, Harrisonvillo, Kansas City and St. Joseph are among the cities on the itiner ary, which will cover the prin cipal counties of Southwest Mis souri. This is Mr. Long's first visit to Missouri since January, at which time he campaigned in the third congressional district in behalf of Cantain Jacob L. Milligan of Richmond, wlio was elected to Congress on the Dem ocratic ticket. Senator Newberry was one of Mr. Lodge's most valuable aids in defeating the treaty oi pence. Red Cross field representa tives who travel through the Southwestern Division of the Red Cross Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma co-ordinating the various ac tivities of the organization, tell humorous tales of their exper iences. One Red Cross worker at a Texas camp received a letter from a woman in an eastern state. "I understand," she wrote, "that my husband is soon to be discharged, and I want to ask you to see that he is kept at camp. I don't want him at home." In one of the hospital wards a patient asked the Red Cross worker if she would buy an engagement ring for his sweet heart. The ring was brought, and when it was delivered a doughboy on an adjoining bed inquired: "I've got the ring, can you get me a girl?" Another lield worker was ask ed to ascertain the home condi tions of a soldier's wife. She wrote to his homo town and got this reply: "This man's wife is in jail for murder. As to home conditions, the sheriff feed the prisoners very well." a How Diphtheria is Contracted. One often lienrs the expression, "My eh i lit rituuht it severe cold which de velnped into diphtheria," when tlm truth was that the cold had simply left the little one pm tlcularly silsceptlhlc to tlm wandering diphtheria tjenn. If your child has a cold when diphtheria is prevalent you should take him nut of school and keep hini oil the street until f (ill v recovered, as there -is a hundred times uinio dauber of hi tnkinc diphtheria when he has cold When Chauiherlain's Cough Remedy is given it quickly cutcs the cold and lessons the danger ot diphtheria or any other germ disease hoing eon traeted. adv Stands Like a Stone Wail Turns Cattle, Horses, Hogs Is Practically Indestructible Republicans Select Delegates Tlm Republicans ot Ste.

Tlio following reso lutions wore adopted: We, tho Hepublicans of Ste. Ootio viovo bounty, in convention assoin hied, again renew our allegiance to the principles of the Republican party and our devotions to tho ciiuso of Republican institutions established by the fathors. Wo look back upon tho achievements of the Republican party with satisfaction and justifiable pride and call attention to the fact that tin der every Republican administration our country has enjoyed prosperity mid benefits of good government. Therefore, wo believe that tho wel fare of the entire people of this nation at this hour again demands that the Republican party again bo placed in full charge of tho tuition's affairs and for this reason wo pledge ourselves to work and voto for the election of a Republican President and a Republi can Congress in tho election now ap proacliing. Wo heaitily iudorso Georgo K Hackinau as State Auditor and Sam Baker as Superintendent of Schools for the splendid records they have made in their respective offices. We denounco without equivocation the efforts of a Democratic adminis tration to embroil us permanently in European politics and internecine trift' and condemn tho League of Nations as proposed by the President as-being a surrender ot American ights and extremely dangerous vio lation ot American traditions and sub versive of American institutions so dear to ovory red-blooded citizen of this country. We deplore the maladministration of our governments, national find state, by the Democratic party bo cause of their unprecedented extrnv aganco and incompetence, and re fuse indorsement and sanctuary to all tho fads istuv and special benefits to class inteiests that aro now foisted iiiioir our nation, and fee assured that the Republican party will, when returned to power, give our eouutrv null lestoratiou of tho rights and privileges of the citizen adiniuistiii- tion of tho affairs and conduct of its business as will truly, in the words of Lincoln, make our government one of, for and by the people. We condemn without reservation the conduct of our legislators Seldnii P. Spencer, Marion IS. Rhodes and Charles .1. Helkou, who in utter dis regard of the lawfully expressed nian- lato of thoir constituencies and ignor ance or contempt of the Missouri bill ot rights, have given their votes to the prohibition ameu lment anil the iniquitious Volstead law for its en forcemeat. It is fuilher our will and the dele gates lioin this meeting to the state convention to bo held at Kansas City, Mo., on tho fth of May, 1!)2C, are hereby instructed to give no support to any measure or person favorable to the cause of prohibition or to a pi o hibitionist.

Already, the automo bile owners have contribute! this year $1,005.(5 10 to tho good rows iimu of tne state. is HowwouldYUU like a raise. like this? and for 34 Years Work, THAT is the kind of increase in salary the minister has received. His living expenses have risen just as fast and as lar as yours. But he is paid on the average just 52 cents more per church member than he was paid 3 years ago. The Minister Never Fails You Every officer of the Government with a war message to deliver appealed to the ministers first of all. But 80 of the ministers receive less income than government economists figure as a minimum for the support of an average family. When hospitals need money they enlist the support of the ministers and receive it. But when sickness visits the minister or the members of his family they must be treated in a charity ward. His pay is less than a day laborer's. 8 out of every 10 ministers receive less than $20 a week about half the pay of a mechanic. We Pay Him Half the Wages of a Mechanic And of these pitifully inadequate salaries, how much do you contribute? Nothing if you are outside the church; an average of less than 3c a day if you are a church member. All of us share in the benefits of Christian ministers to the community. They marry us; bury us; baptize- our children; visit us when we are sick. In their hands is the "spiritual training of the youth. We Are All Profiteers at Their Expense Part of the Interchurch World program is this a living wage for every minister of Jesus Christ ; an efficient plant, and a chance to do a big man's job. If you want better preachers, help to pay the preachers better. It's the best investment for your community and for your children that you can ever make. a, W. LAHMHG, M. D.
