BOY SCOUTS HOLD COURT
AT HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING
The Arcadia Boy Scouts presented
0 their first public trial last Friday night
at the high school auditorium. Cases
against members of the local troup
1 are usually confined to the regular
meeting place, but this time a moot
case was gotten up and the Scouts in
vited their friends out to it. The case
was State rs. "Chick" Snatcher, in
- which the said "Chick" was indicted
for snatching two chickens off the roost
t of Mrs. Jackson. A jury was em
k paneled and "Chick," enacted by J. E.
4 Currie, was tried under the Scott laws.
I After a very interesting line of evi
dence was introdlucedl by either side i
and arguments very ably presented by
counsel for the State, Price Aycock and
Roy Taylor, and for the defense by U
counsel King Murphy and Ralph Goff
and the jury found the defendant not e
IJguilty. Mayor B. F. Barnette acted
as judge,
The trial was written and put on e1
under the direction of Aissistant Scout- .
master P. E. Brown, and was a suc
cess in every detail. Mr. Brown just
ly received a great deal of praise for fo
the success of his efforts. The boys
also deserve credit for the manner in
which they executed the plans of their
leader.
On Friday night of next week the
Scouts will entertain their friends
again with a murder trial, State vs.
ISergeant Morrison, when a war story of
will form the subject of the plot. pu

PRICES PAID Irf FARIERS
The average price of things bought
by farmers in 1918 is estimated to
be about 32 per cent higher than in
1917, albout 97 per cent higher than
in 1914 and 108 per cent higher than
prices of articles bought by farmers
in 1909, says the Department of Agri
culture.
Prices of articles which farmers
ehll were only about 14 per cent high.
or in 1918 than in 1917, but about 97
per cent higher than in 1914. That is,
since 1914 the prices of artiles which 1
farmers buy 'and prices of articles
which farmers sell increasedl in about
the same proportion. Farmer's pro.
ducts were the tiist to advance but
other products during the past year
have overtaken the advance of farm
products.
Thus from 1914 to 1917 the advance
of farm products was about 74 per
cent as compared with an advance of
49 per cent for articles farmers buy,
bi but in the past yeai increase of farm u
products was as stated and onlly about
14 per cent for the other rtiles. t
