During the war t. .J soon after wards, when so many able bodied mcr were being drawn away front tht farms to the cit\es by the lure o steady employment at high wages much alarming comment was liuiulg ed in, on the score that the production of food might be curtailed to tin danger point. Mntw tiro V>nu r nf a fl rlrOf\ TDfiVP ment back to the farm. There are n statistics, but observation leads to th conclusion that abandoned and parti; cultivated farms are being taken u; and farmers sons are returning to th old stand, notwithstanding the lo\ prices for farm products during th past year. The farm is bound to be more at tractive in the future than it has bee in the past. The day of isolation ha gone by. Distance from the farm t the large centres of population ha almost been annihilated by the nut mobile. The young people o| th country can participate in the city' nmnaomanta offor* fVt n urnrl- ! done. Rural free delivery, the tele rhone and the individual light plar provides comfotts that are compart tively modern. And the work on 111 farm is easing up by the use of tr.i. tors ar.d other modern devices. Tt problem of getting the products t market is being simplified by goo roads. Furthermore, the farmers ai organizing for mutual protection an advantage. Their co-operative mai keting associations give them advai tage in stabilizing conditions tht they have not had. By national an in? fr? credit facilities than ever before. Scientific cultivation is gaining ground. That in itself Is a lure fcT the ambitious young man who was Drougni up m tne old hapnazaru way of tilling he soil. All these improvements are bringing the farm into a new era of development, with better prospects of profit and more intensive interest 111 agriculture. There should be a notable decrease in the movement from the ;oil to the city. A good many of the young peonle of the farms will bo attracted by the enticements of the big town, but pi*?bably there will not be as many as heretofore. Farming should be an occupation of greateprofit and comfort from now on.? Anderson Daily Mail. flf -*<s * 'ft ' Our cat says people get the kimJ oi government tney will to have.

F. Townshend, whol? commanded the British forces which ^ surrendered to the Turks at Kut-el- l' Amara in the campaign for Bagdad, is at present here as the personal 0 guest of General Gourand, the French 1 high commissioner to Syria. Ic General Townshend, after the war, ? returned to England from Turkey and; was elected to parliament, where he; ( has appeared as a critic of the policy,1 of the British government 'n the Near t East. Special despatch from London t in May said the government had re- 1 fused him a passport to visit Turkey, 1 fearing he purposed to deliver pro- J ' Turkish speeches. He was believed ' strongly to favor the Turkish side of)' the argument with Gi-eece. It s believed in Beirut that C.en-i eral Townshend came to Syria in an effort to bring about a reconciliation of the British and French policies in Palestine and Syria, lie has been ouoted in a local newspaper as fol-; ment, which had led to Mustapha lows: "Tiie Turkish Nationalist move-} f ment, which had led to Mustapha! t Kernel Pasha gaining all the real power in Turkey, would never have: assumed its present attitude of hos-} tility to the Allies had not the Treaty 5 of Sevres proposed to dismember the | Turkish Empire." He believes that the Greco-Turkish | ^ war must be stopped, and that the; Greeks should renounce their claims t: to any part of Asia Minor and agree S" to the Turks retaining the ethnologip cally Turkish parts of Thrace, Includ t ing the Moslem holy city of Adria-i :ioplc. lie suggests the Maritza river as the logical boundary In Thrace.1 e "Cutting off all Turkey's Arab! provinces," ^asserts General Town-) shend, "is quite sufficient punishment i r for her having fought on the side' of Germany. To leave Smyrna in the j hands of the Greeks is to create an ? oriental Alsace Lorraine that must) s innevitably provoke another war." The defender of Kut-et-Amara expects to spend about a month in Sy, lia. He will visit Cilicla, and there ' arrange for a conference with Muslft tapha Kemal Pasha. ,t Women Using Fewer Hairnets Ch.'fi o. Province of Shantung, lf> China, Aug. 30.?Women in America -- and Europe are using fewer hairnets than heretofore, if the fall in th? 9 market here is si criterion. The makj ing ??f hairnets is one of Shantung's! chief industries.

S.aco the republic was established there has been a surplus of hair be-j cause many Chinese cut off their 1 * yh jN"1 >v nfth" nth nftfticntis TetpflrEfrT to be worn as badges of subjugation. , The black Chinese hair is easily dyed to various shades of brown, blonde, and brunette desired by western wo-1 men. Recently the demand has fall-1 en off and many hairnet makers are! unemployed. About 70 factories were closed within a week. The industry is described as unpromising. The Chinese merchants are wondering whether western women are no longer using nets because they are bobbing their hair or whether Europeans are becoming competitors in the trade. Priority Coal Refused by Ford Detroit, Aug. 30.?

According t<> this information Mr. , Ford charges that, priority coal con- , signed to the Northwest has been offered to him by coal brokers in telegrams reaching his office here.

Elk Officers to Meet in Atlanta Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 31.?Practically every larege city of the Southeast, and many smaller centers, will be represented at the conference of leading Elk lodge officials which is to "be held Atlanta on Labor Day, Septem.ber 4, to discuss plans for the 1923 convention of the grand lodge of Elks, which is to he held in Atlanta next Tuly. Every Elk's organization in the states of North and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Tennessee will be invited to join with the A tlanta lodge in providing an entertainment program more extensive in scope and more elaborate In character than has ever greeted the grand lodge before. The annual convention of the Elks is the largest gathering of its kind in America, drawing between forty and fifty thousand delegates from all parts of the country, and thousands of special visitors, as well. The fact that 1 any particular section is given the | privjlepe o^ entertaining _ tjie gr^fj gathering is regarded iWt^onl'y as an opportunity for the entire section surrounding the convention city, since the thousands of visitors who! attend are numbered among the leading business men of America and they1 are accustomed to make many side trips of inspection while visiting the convention. All the lodges in the southeast worked valiantly at Atlantic City last T..1 J A 4.1 : it. wuiy iu uiu ntiautu in suturing mei convention. The Atlanta lodge, in return, is striving to mane the convention prove of the most distinct advantage to every lodge in the section. Just what is being planned in this di- ^ rection will be discussed in full at the conference on Labor Day. It is known that one of the most important matters to be discussed will relate to the presence in the annual parade of every Southern lodge, recruited to maximum strength. This parade is world famous because of the large number of bands and patrols in line and because of the many gorgeous floats and amusing antics of those who are in line. Thousands of persons gather each year from distant points to witness this one performance. While the guests are in the city, they will be given special entertainment by the Atlanta convention board. The program Includes a luncheon given by the Atlanta lodge, in automobile tour of the city in the afternoon, and a big ball to be given' at the Elk's club, one of the finest ppointed club houses in the country, in the evening. Predicts Decline in Birthrate Tokio, August 30.?A solution to Jie population problem of Japan is seen by Yukio Osaki, Japan's Liberal eader, in a decline of the birth-rate coincident with a higher standard of -ivilization and a higher education of women. "In my lecturing tours in :he provinces," says Osaki, "many ] luestions are asked concerning thU sroblem, the people displaying much xnxiety and little knowledge about it. Progress of civilization reduces birth- 1 ate. At present negroes are the nost procreative, then the Chinese 1 ind Japanese. The more brain work Fapanese women engage In the great- ) r will be the decline of their procreitive powers. On the other hand, Fapanese emigrants abroad do not ex:eed (>00,000, and this poor figure is in eloquent testimony to the difflcul- i ies attending the disposition of the * lurplus population by means of emi- < rration. Despite government's ef- i orts to induce people to settle in the lokkaido, an excellent place for conization, the results have been unatisfactory. It is, therefore, useless o try and solve the population prob- r em of Japan by means of emigra- e ion." s lotor Driven Railroad [ Cars Appear in South Sfcttanooga, Tenn., Aug. 31.?^The MMfejr driven railroad car will make appearance on a Dixie raiload [tomorrow when operation of NMwftnc-propclled combination pasenger and baggage trains will be inugurated on the Tennessee, Alaamt and Georgia Railroad. The will operate on schedule and JU 'displace steam-propelled trains >0W [used on the road. The motor driven car is similar in. ippBrance to the Pullman car. It is >f steel construction throughout, weighs 27,000 pounds and has ac:onimodations for forty passengers. Like an automobile, the car is operited with gear shifts, but has six speeds forward instead of three as on in automobile; and its four-cylinder engine, it is estimated, is capable >f developing sixty-eight horsepow>* TV,,, onr i? pmiinned with air brakes and all other standard appliances on the modern steam coach. It is capable of making 50 miles an hour and will average five to six miles per gallon of gasoline. Born of the genius of E. H. Harriman and the inventive ingenuity of Willia in McKoen, the motors-driven railroad car came into existence as a potential transportation factor on March 2S., 1905. Mr Harriman suggested the possibilities of the gasoline coach in 1903, and Mr. McKeen who also built the first steel freight and passenger cars, immediately began work on his model. Mr. McKeen then was superintendent of motive power and machinery for the Union Pacific system, but upon completion of his invention he was placed at the head of a million dollar corporation and the gasoline cars were constructed in large numbers as their value became apparent. In March, 1920, -the McKeen company was purchased by the t'nion Pacific. The cars, greatly improved during the seventeen years in which they have been used, are filling an important place on the small branch lines of the Union Pacific system. Bald Rock August 29, 1922. Well, hci e comes "Everyday Worker" after an absence of a long time. 1 guess some of you will wonder why I ha ven't been writing more than I have. 1 will tell you why. I hav? been attending revival services for about four weeks and did not have time to write. Rie corn fodder is ripening fast in this community. Some are pulling now, and cotton is also getting very thick in some places. The revival meeting, which was conducted by Rev. Sam T. Creech, al Potter's Chapel closed Sunday night 'uenihcrs added to the church crow ds .attended both day and night and overfilling' the large tent. We believe lots of good was done in this community. If there wasn't it was not Mr. Creech's fault, ror he did bis part. He is a fine preacher and ho will always be remembered in this community. He will begin a two weeks' meeting at Lockhart next Sunday and I wish all who can woutd conic and hear his fine sermons. Miss Fannie Adams and Mr. Sidney Vaughan were united in marriage at the home of Rev. J. F. Golightly Tuesday night. Mr. Vaughan is the son of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Vaughan of (he Adamsburg community and Mrs. Vaughan is the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Adams, also of Adamsburg. We wish for them a long life filled with happiness. John Gregory of Lockhart visited at the home of his parents Sunday and attended the Sam Creech services. When the Paper Doesn't Come / My father says the paper he reads ain't put up right.

Start Chamber of Commerce in Japan I Tokio, Aug. 30 (By the Associated Press).?A movement has been start-i ed by the leading business men for! the organization of the chamber of i commerce of Japan after the example of the chamber of commerce of the United States of America. The proposed organization has in view, according to Toyoji Wada, one of the inauguration committee members, the unification of the commercial and industrial activity nationally and internationally and the promotion of the business men's welfare. The new or ganization will thus include almost all the commercial and industrial societies and associations, clubs and leagues, throughout the empire. The movement is supported by tho government authorities and financial concerns such as the Mitsui and Iwasaki. The longest wave measured by officials of the U. S.
