THURSDAY EVENING' OCTOBER 19. 1918 The only trouble kbout twenty cent cotton: . it will take all the diversification out of the We fear irgument. A contemporary announces: "Villa located again." ; This Is news, as rwe have had no confirmation that he was located Ihe fir. time. ' Another evidence of the Hughes "temporary" prosper ity: The cotton mill of 'Alamance county, have voluntar x dly Increased the wages of their operatives ten per cent. The revisionist.! of the Episcopal marriage ceremony, who proposed to oniut the word "obey," evidently had word from "'iack home," as the vote on the question, we understand, has been postponed for three years. Congressman Claode Kitehin thinks that a Marion Butler pamphlet of instruction could be yanked from the inside pocket of moitt any Republican spellbinder or lead er, who might be searched. He should make allowance for some of the Republican brethren to commit to mem ory their Instructions and thus obviate the -necessity of loading their Pc wjjth"wHteB orders," We again make appeal in behailf of the Mothers' Club and fha playground movement, and remind those who have, hot done so that 'the sfirst Ayclum attraction, the proceeds over the guarantee fund for which will go into the playground fund, is to be given Friday night. The season ticket's iti'tsT" ifHWiaf SRoofkket for $1 will . admit any school child in Kinston to the Ave entertainments. and other elements entering into (its production. When cotton prices soar there w an ever-present dan ger of a tendency to over-production in the succeeding year, and the very condition whjicfi forced the prices up lis made to reveste itself. The planters must not lose sight of the fact that the law of suirply and d:mand largely controls the cotton market. The price this year is higher, it is said, than it has been since the War E'd tween the States, and that in spite of the fact that a large part of the export trade has been interfered with by the European war. The smaH crop this yeur is responsible for the splendid prices, and the farmers should realize that it is greatly to their adywitage to produce a sixty I loesn't see a tenth of the perform' per ceni. crop ana get aro 10 oopcrrceni. increase in the price than to produce" a 100 per cent, crop and sell it for the same money, r approximately the same, that they would realizj from the short crop. That is jus! the experience that they are having this year. The southern farmer will como into his own more quickly by diversifying his crops and holding- his cotton acreage to t. point where it will insure a crop no larger than will command good prices than by puHjJjing any other methods thut he can employ. The Free Press thinks that it is not too early now" to begin to emphasize thi; very material factor in the South's prosperity, that thi backbone of the section the farmers may not lose their heads because of the splendid prices which are now ob taining, and forget that "hog and hominy" will still Ik tt.eded to keep the "wolf away from the door." WHAT OTHERS SAY . . . , . i .u nee. i sno-JId ratner anenu an oiu 'asHioned, one-ring circus, where I aj see everything well." In all parts of the coupon bove ntimen is oftentimes express 1 when a big circus is ""billed o appear. This is true,' where the management of big hA niljfes'all -rts of acts together i alcrazy'eon ortion. But John P.obinson's Ten Jig Shows, which will exhibTTin Kin .on on November 3, afternoon and .vening, although one of nAmerica's argect amusement institutions, offer io ground foBi'such complaint. The xperieiifed management of the great lohn Robinson's.- Ten Big Shows long ince remedied this evil. A circus Drocram is made up of vhat Is termed as "displays." A dis may is a series, of acts given simul--ineouply in the rings, on the ele ate'd stages, in the air and on the lippoilrcme. Instead of the display icing composed of several diverse vts, as is often the case in circuses, 'ohn Robinson's Ten Big Shows dis-,-lnys are made up of acts of the ;am? kind. For instance, if a male r female equestrian act is being giv n in ring No. 1, the very same kind f fenture will lie found in the other inn,s. If a group of aerialists ap )?ar at one end of the dome of the rreat. tont, another group will be pre sented at the opposite end. Thus it 's possible for the spectators atone j i Good reports ara coming from El Paso of the North Carolina soldier boys tinder the command of General Young.

Kipijin ..tfricqds and relatives of the memlers of Company B of the Socomi Regiment will take especial pride in knowing that the local boys svra keeping atep with the others of the North Carolina regiments. The British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has had reports that the commander of the Gorman submarine U-53 requested commanders of the United States destroy ers to clear the way and give him room to blow un ships, and that the commanders acceded to the request. Secre tary Grey wants assurance that such reports are unfound ed. He might get his answer by reviving his memory on American history and the traditions of the United States naval commanders, PAPER SHORTAGE GROWS MORE SERIOUS. Norfolk Ledger-Dispach: "Indications multiply that the threatened shortage of newspaper print pnptr is fast becoming a reality and the question of getting paper enough on which to print the papers is serious, while thr tremendous increase in cost threatens the ruin of many newspapers of the country. "The Canadian paper' manufacturers have informed their customers that they would be charged a tremendous increase, and the Canadian government has taken up the situation and is considering the fixing arbitrarily of n price that will not put the newspapers out of businesn "This course is not open to our government. However, the Federal Trade Commission is investigating the paper extremity of the canva.s..,t.o see .prac shot-tare, but appears - nowerlaaa . to -nravent the etaetrer-1 sically th? same performances that inar advance in orice. or the ahortairo in na-ner. he people in the far ertd witness "The government at -Washington has just entered up on a conservation plan in which its publications will be curtailed. A notice has been sent out by Surgeon Gen eral Rupert Blue in which he says that 'on account of the shortage in the pap?r market it has become necessary to curtail the mailing list of the Health News.' "To what extent this may extend to other government publications is not made plain, but the seriousness of the situation is evidenced in many ways. The problem that confronts the daily newspapers is causing the most profound concern Ihe publishers." WANT AOS ONE CENT A WORD EACH INSERTION FAIRS INCREASING IN EAST CAROLINA.
