C under the act of March 8, 1879. The Associated Press is exclusive ly entitled to tne use for republica tion of all news credited to it or not credited in this paper and also the local news published herein. Mr. D. E. Whitener is doing sorts very fine work as director of the agricultural building for the fair and he is hustling every day. Farmers who have entries to be placed should notify him promptly. Catawba cotton planters will meet in the court house at Newton Satur day afternoon at 3 o'clock for th? purpose of taking action . on the question of holding for better prices. This crop was made with high priced else and the farmers are offered labor and high priced everything about 15 cents less a pound for it than they got for last year's pro duction. If there in anything that can be done to make cotton bring a reasonable price, then farmers should bestir themselves. And so should their friends. MEMBER OP ASSOCIATED PRESS PoWthed ky the Clay Printing Co. Every Evening Except Sunday The circus still makes its appeal to the old and young especially the young, judging by the number of children in the tent yesterday af ternoon. There are a good many public speakings that should be held in the proposed municipal auditorium. Con gressman Ellsworth of Minnesota will speak tonight on the public square and Mr. Walter Murphy of Salisbury will speak tomorrow night. These men are well worth hearing and it is to be regretted that there is no tlace indoors available. In an other year, however, the building! shouuld be ready. SHOULD GET FACTS Partizans are quite apt to place wrong interpretations on anything political, and the' safe thing for honest men and women to do is to study issues as they are presented by men and women who ask for nothSng nd want nothing The league of nations is a fair sample. The opinions of independent news papers and public men are worth one thousand times more to the man or woman who is anxious to be in formed than are the opinions of men running for office and we say this with no disrespect to the latter. The tune is sounded for them by some body higher up and they sing bass or tenor. They also teach round or square geography. On the greatest of all issues, there fore, Catawba county people, if they are interested, should read the ex pressions of independent thinkers and be guided by them. COLLIER'S AND THE LEAGUE Under the caption of "The Perso nal Equation," Collier's Weekly for September 25 tells of the effort President Wilson made in Paris to have the peace treaty made more moderate and to obtain the adoption of the league of Rations. After mid night in the spring of 1919, Collier's recalls, President Wilson was awak ened by a telephone call and inform ed that a change had been found in the text of the treaty as agreed upon during the day. "The president," to quote this Republican weekly, "in turn telephoned Premier Clemenceau and repeated this information. Pre mier Clemenceau admitted he had made the change himself, but declar ed he had intended to tell the nresi dent about it next day. The change was. not allowed to stant." Collier's relates discussion of the terms of the peace treaty between Andrew Bonar Law, British leader in parliament, and George Barnes, min ister without portfolio. Thev aerreed that the financial terms were so se vere that they would mean another war. Bonar Law lost a son in the war and he urged with tears in his eyes that tho terms must oot bo too evere. Clemenceau agreed with President Wilson, Lloyd George and Bonar Law, but ho declared he could not get the treaty ratified by the French parliament if the trems were any less severe. Building a league of na tions, Collier's points out, was a her culean task, and it wonders "whether Senator Harding had any conception of the size of the task when he pro posed in August to build another league of nations to supplant the one thrown into the senate cockpit by the president a year ago." "Has Senator Harding any good reason, to believe the nations will march out of one ark of the cove nant and into the other without hesi tation and without debate?" asks Collier's. "We know that this ques tion has arisen in the minds of many Republicans. We hope before this copy of Collier's has -reached Sena tor Harding he will have erased the ominous interrogation point now up raised in the minds of Republicans who want an enduring peace. It will be hard for a lot of Republicans to vote until they can answer this question satisfactorily." Mrs. Ada Lattimore has returned to her hnne in Maiden after visit ing her siste. Mrs. Alice Harbin and Brother. Mr. D. M. Boydd. Mr. J. A. Jenkins of Chester. S. C. who has been visiting Mr. and Mrs. F O. Davis, left today. He was ac companied by his niece. Miss Model'.e Dnis.

THINK FOR YOURSELF The following is a paragraph from Informal Paragraphs in Lutheran Sur vey, W. II. Greevcr: These times, call for a special kind of reading. It has never been pos sible, and certainly is not possible now for a man to be a good citizen if he depends chiefly for hisf information upon newspaper headlines. They may do for him what is their legiti mate servce, viz., to direct his atten tion to the most important events. What follows them may give him ten tative information which he can take for nothing else than a basis for in vestigation iand verification. Next he should go to the editorial pages of the newspapers. There he finds an interpertation which, at best, is suggestive and tentative From the editorial pages of the newspapers he should go to journals of thought weeklies and monthlies and from them to books current and standard and on every subject of importance he should pursue his study to the en cyclopedias and histories, coming fin ally to his judgment of principles in volved through the application of the teachings of the Bible. If anyone objects that a man who . has much work to do has no time for such thorought study, he should be re minded that "haste makes waste," and that if his time is limited, it only makes it all the more necessary that he should discriminate and choose a few of the most vital subjects to which he will give his attention. If any man is too busy to give such thorough study to a limited number ff the most vital questions of the day, he is selfishly busy, and instead of justifying himself for his failure to discharge this duty, he only offers the ground for his own condem nation. It sometimes seems to be almost a waste of breath to speak along this line but anyone who is ac quainted with the current and the course of events and the general state of the public mind, knows that there is nothing in our present life more vitally essential.
