SUPPORT MAYSVILLE FACTORIES
There has been some discussion recently abouth Maysville be
coming a manufacturing city and one of our progressive young busi
... cess men in an interview lias suggested that the local Chamber of
Commerce should spend more time and energy in bringing to Mays
ville manufacturing industries which would give employment to local
men. - s
This interview leads us to think of the splendid small factories
, we now have and the wonderful opportunities for their growth into
large and flourishing establishments.
.While it Is part of the duty of the Chamber of Commerce to in
duce plants to locate here, it is also the duty of that organization to
stand behind those we already have. 1 Maysville manufacturing es
tablishments should have the wholehearted support of every Mays
villians and goods made in Maysville should be on the counters and
shelves of every Maysville store.
' If Maysville merchants handled and pushed Maysville made
goods our present factories would soon grow into larger ones giving
employment to many more people and bringing more money into the
cash registers of Maysville merchants. Anl local merchants would
handle and push Maysville made goods if Maysville people used them.
"While we want all the factories we can get, we first want to
stand solidly behind those we have. We do not propose to be sug.
gesting to the directors of the Chamber of Commerce but our notion
"is that a campaign expliciting the virtues of Maysville made goods
would be a step in the right diection.
When possible buy in Maysville goods made in MaysbDle.
BIG PARTY FOR MASON SOLDIERS
Many Mason county man who saw service during the World War
should spend the Fourth of July in Maysville. A big time is being
planned by the home folks. It's going to be just one big party. No
speeches to bore those attending and nothing to do but to have a
goo,d time.
The home folks want to see all of ovy boys together again and
it will be an ideal time and place for the boys to meet their fellows
in khaki.
No expense is being spared to make the occasion a record break
er" twelve hundred dollars will be spent to make it a success. It
will prove a wonderful success if all of the Mason County Soldiers
are on hand. The soldiers and their families should let nothing
prevent them from spending the Fourth of July at Beechwood.

Statement That May Be Investigated.
Testimony of Maysville Citizens.
When a Maysville citizen cornea to

rely on his sincerity. The statements
of people residing In far away places
do not command your confidence.
Ifome endorsement Is the kind that

proves it true. Below is a statement
of a Maysville resident No stronger
proof of merit can be bad.

Doan'a Kidney Pills off and on for
several years, getting tbem at Chans

served 3,000 men a day, the soldiers
of the Twenty-sixth, Seventy-seventh
and Eighty-second divisions being
cared for as they passed through in
trains'. No effort was made to keep
track of the number of cigarettes and
quantity of tobacco, passed out to the
men at this point. During the Ameri
can offensive last September 18,000
soldiers received refreshments as they
were carried Into and evacuated from
a hospital two miles outside of Toul.
Originally the canteen was estab
lished In a fifty-foot tent In the rail
road yard at Toul, but with the rapid
Increase in the number of men to be
cared for the Red Cross took over an
entire hotel close by for the work. As
many as 7,000 soldiers have found
loglngs there In a month, the number
cared for In this way rarely dropping
below 3,000 soldiers received meals
there during the month of January.
The shower baths have, been used by
70,000 soldiers. General Pershing re
cently Inspected the canteen and com
plimented the managers.

enlisted men at Trier, Cermany, re

Interested in Film Productions to Be Made

DR. JAMES E. CROWTHER AND D. W. GRIFFITH.
The support of the motion picture
world as represented by D. W. Grif
fith, well known film producer, was
assured the Methodist Centenary Cel
ebration at a conference In Columbus,
the celebration being represented by
Dr. S. Earl Taylor of New Vork, Dr. J.
E. Crowther of Seattle, Dr. Fred
Fisher of New York and Dr. C. F.
Keisner of New York.
Mr. Griffith, in addition to promis
ing to make a film of all important
features of the Centenary Celebra
tion, strongly urged the use of motion
pictures in the advancement of re
ligions work. He spoke strongly of
the possibilities of the motion pic
tures under proper supervision being
made to carry a religious message
further than any known form of com
munication. Dr. S. Earl Taylor, director general
of the Centenary Celebration, 'made
the statement that "we want pictures
that tulk the universal language 1
believe the message of peace and
good will should be preached to the
world through pictures."
"I am glad to know they are going
to give motion pictures a practical
demonstration at (he Centenary Cele
bration," said Mr. .Griffith. "The cel
ebration will give the people in towns
and villages a wonderful opportunity
to visit the entire world by going no
further than Columbus. There will
be an extraordinary Impression pro
duced by seeing these villages of
China, Japan and India, Sot peopled
by amateurish actors, but inhabited
by real natives from foreign lands.
"I have been astounded - beyond
measure at the breadth, extent and
scope of the entire scheme as it has
been revealed to me by Dr. Taylor,
Dr. Crowther, Dr. Keisner and others.
I understand the Methodist Church
has (140.000,000 and is going to cele
brate its success with something more
nearly resembling a world fair than
anything else to which It can be com
pared. One would think that a great
nation at least Is behind the move
ment. Doubtless, something greater
than the greatest nation is behind it
a reawakened ideal and faith in
spired to bind up the wounds of a
torn and oiitrrfited world."
Columbus Can Well Accommodate All Who
Attend Methodist Celebration, Officials Say
NO CROWD which has been proposed for the Methodist Centenary
Celebration will swamp Columbus, according to Mayor George
J. Karb, who has received some inquiries from distant points re
garding the ability of the Capital City to take care of the hundreds of
thousands of Methodists coming from all over the United States for
the Centenary Celebration, June 20 to July 13. .
Mayor Karb says: "Columbus has always been equal to any situ
ation. We are not going to fail the exposition crowds, no matter how
n any thousand there are. Tell them to come to Columbus town. We
are ready with open hearts and open doors. Columbus can do it."
James T. Daniels, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, says:
"We can easily and satisfactorily accommodate three hundred thou
sand visitors. Organlzing Secretary H. B. Dickson says: "Three
hjndred thousand my minimum estimate of attendance. Confident
, Columbus can take care of twice that number."
Collection of Indian Curios at the
Methodist Centenary Celebration
It otj
WHAT baa been pronounced the
greatest private collection of
Indian curios In America has been
loaned to the Matbodlst Centenary
Celebration at Columbus, O, by H.
W. Palm, an Indian trader of Orton
ville, Minnesota. Mr. Palm is here
shown with some of his Interesting
relics.
Indian exhibitions will have a con
siderable place In the Celebration.
Pueblos will unconcernedly mold pot
tery before throngs of curious spec
tators, Just as their grandfathers did
before the white man invaded their
lands. Navajos will weave rugs and
St Regis make basketry all actually
living In their native homes, be they
pueblos or wigwams.
NO SEATS RESERVED
First Come, First Served, at Coliseum
at Methodist Centenary
At a conference of Director General
S. Earl Taylor, Dr. Fred B. Fisher.
H. B. Dickson and other members of

been benefited by the use
of Cardul, the woman's

we receive, similar to this
one from Mrs. Z.V. Spell,
ofllayne.N.C. "I could
not stand on my feet, and
Just suffered terribly,"
she says. "As my suf

he had tried other reme
