Come and Hear This Distinguished Democra
tic Orator
The fountain of youth may not be
long from discovery in Pemiscot
county, for we now have here truly
a fairyland where spring flowers
bloom amid the ripening fruits of
fall. On the 19th day of this month
William Welker, one of the Frisco
engineers, brought down from the
Frank Klingensmith orchard north
of Hayti and presented to this office
a bunch of apple twigs 'in perfect
bloom. Not only that, the same
trees, he said, bore green apples and
ripe apples. Here, in Pemiscot coun
ty, we have, past the middle of Oc
tober, apple trees with bloom, green
fruit and ripened apples all on the
same boughs, at the same time. We
have seen the same in the orange
tree of the far south, where frost
does not come to blight; but for the
apple tree to be In fruit and ilower
at the same time, at the threshold
of winter, in this latitude is, w,e
think, a rare occurrence, and be
speaks a climatic prevalence that we
might, if we properly understood it,
more profitably take advantage of.
Sweaters
Our new line of Sweaters has arrived, and we have
them for Men, Women and Children, and in all sizes
and colors. These sweaters are all well knitted, and
will give excellent service. We would appreciate
a call from you if you expect to purchase a sweater this
Fall and Winter.
Pants
Men, we have the best line of pants you ever saw; and
they are priced at the amount you will want to pay.
We have work "and dress pants that are well made to
give real dependable service. And, don't forget, we
also have pants for the boys, too. Like those for the
men, they are priced reasonable.

FRISCO COTTON TRAIN.
Frisco Runs Cotton Train Into Mem
phis Last Monday. Starting at
Portageville and Hayti, Making
Train of 40 Cars.
Last Monday morning the Frisco
began at Portageville making up a
cotton train for Memphis, bein
added to considerably at Hayti.
When the train reached Memphis it
had 40 flat cars on which was load
ed 3,000 bales. .
The train was in charge of S. J.
Frazier, assistant superintendent of
the river division, and Ed Imboden,
traveling freight agent. Mr. Frazier
is a son-in-law of J. M. Argo of tills
city and years ago was depot agent
here.
The train made all .stops en route,
arriving at the Harvard yards on
the west side of the river, where it
remained over night so that it
could be sent into Memphis uud de
livered to the Memphis Terminal
Corporation in daylight.
So it Is now from the north of
Memphis instead of the bouth that
is pouring into that city the bulk
of the cotton received there.

RED CROSS HEALS
WOUNDS OF WAR
25,000 Disabled Ex-Service Men
"in Hospitals After Four
Years of Peace.
CHAPTERS' FIELD OF SERVICE
Every Veteran Needing Help Gets
Individual Attention of Sym
pathetic Workers.
When on November 11 the world
halts to observe the fourth anniver
sary of Armistice Day, and the Ameri
can lied Cross Inaugurates Its Annual
Roll Cnll for the enrollment of the
1DU3 membership, the people of the
United States may well pause to think
of the unparalleled contribution to the
cause of peace made by our Army and
Navy In the World War. The glory of
It Is a common tradition; but the
wounds of war remain. They are not
healed In a day, in a year, nor in four
years. And on Armistice Hay there
will be under treatment In Government
hospitals over 25,000 ex-service men,
bioken physically by wound's, expo
sure, nervous strain and exhaustion
incident to their service In the war.
The Government without stint Is un
dertaking to furnish tiic-e disabled
men with the compensation and med
ical care to which they are entitled,
yet their especial care Is a duty of the
Ited Cross. Why? Ueeause the Gov
ernment cannot handle the cases of
ex-'-ervlce men individually; It must
handle these men in bulk under a
standardized policy. The Government
has neither the authority, the funds
or the equipment for working out the
problem of the Individual man. There
is where the American Ited Cross
finds Its greatest field for service, aid
ing through its very active Chapters
in reaching the disabled man with Im
mediate practical help, assisting his
family while his claim Is emerging from
the process of adjustment, furnishing
articles of comfort, funds to tide over
the difficult periods, the friendly touch
of personal encouragement, helpful
recreation and worry-dispelling amuse
ment. It Is the warm lining of sym
pathy and understanding which the
American Ited Cross extends to the
majority of these disabled ex-service
men, some of them friendless in the
whirl of life, thousands of them with
wives and children dependent upon
them, and hundreds of them frequent
ly helpless in the face of grim ne
cessity. 2,679 Chapters Aiding Veterans
In this work, upon whose accom
plishment the American Red Cross Is
urging a record-breaking enrollment in
the Iloll Call which opens on Armis
tice Day and closes with Thanksgiv
ing Day, 1,(79 Chapters In nil parts of
the country are engaged. This is 350
more than were working for ex-service
men last year when approximately
$10,000,000 was expended by the Na
tional Organization and the Chapters
working together in harmonious unity.
For the current fiscal year National
Headquarters appropriated $H,O.'10,
C92.90, an increase of $3(5.",."G0.84 over
the nmount spent for the work among
ex-service men in the year ended .Tune
30 last. Since It Is estimated that the
Chapters will expend close to $7,000,
000 from their own funds, the grand
total of Red Cross expenditures for
this single work Is expected again to
reach the $10,000,000 mark by June 30,
1923.
Hospital and District Office Work
During the fiscal year a total of over
1,000 persons, pnld and volunteer, has
been engaged in Red Cross duty in
hospitals or district offices of the U. S.
Veterans' Bureau. An average of 8,000
new cases requires definite and par
ticular attention each month. The de
mand for Chapter-mnde articles for
hospital patients is constant.
During last year Service Claims and
Information Service at National Head
quarters handled 37,200 compensation
and insurance claims, 24,500 allotment
and allowance cases, and 9,700 miscel
laneous claims. Since February, 1919,
It has disposed of C 1,17-1 allotment
checks payable to veterans which the
Post Office Department reported unde
llverabh'. The Chapter is the unit of the Red
Cross organization which Is accessible
to every disabled veteran or his fum
lly. Between July 1, 1921, and Juno 30,
1922, the Chapters had reported 1,005,
070 instances of .service to ex-service
men and their dependents, at a cost
estimated from reports now at hand of
more than $5,340,000.
The basis of this far-reaching work
of the Red Cross is the individual
needs of the disabled veteran to the
end that lie may obtain Ills rights un
der the law, that his especial wunts
may be immediately supplied, that his
own and his family's situation may be
rendowd happy and cheerful, and that
their outlook for the future may
visualize Incentives for Independent
and fruitful effort.

VOTE "NO" ON No. TEN
At the last session of the legislat
ure the Republicans passed a num
ber of laws the intention of which
are to put into etfect Governor
Hyde's theory of a centralized State
government. The effect of these
laws was so apparent, however,
that it was no trouble to secure suf
ficient signatures to' referendum pe
titions to hold the laws up and al
low the voters of the State to pass
upon them.
These referred laws are now be
ing published in the Republican pa
pers of the State upon order of the
Republican Secretary of State.
As before stated, these meas
ures represent the partisanship of
Governor Hyde, and each one is per
nicious in its intent; but the most
vicious of them all is No. 10. This
bill would redistrict the judicial dis
tricts of the State and by so doimj
would deprive every judge in the
country districts of his office, and
their successors would.be named by
Governor Hyde; and it goes without
saying that in naming his appointees
no Democrat would be considered.
In the redisricting proposed by
No. 10 of these referred measures
Pemiscot and Dunklin counties
would be joined in one district, and
the business of the two counties is
so heavy that no one man can han
dle it; consequently both of these
counties are especially interested in
defeating the measure.
Vote "NO" on all these measures,
and be sure to remember No. 10.
