Historical Beelesy THE MARION REVIEW VOLUME 20 MARION, MARION COUNTY, KANSAS. TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1922 NUMBER 22 G. MeADOO AT HUTCHINSON Most Likely Candidate for President In 1924 Addresses Democrats of Kansas. Last Wednesday was a red letter day in Hutchinson. Democrats from all over the state assembled to hear can who is most prominently mentioned as the probable candidate for the presidency of the United States in 1924.

Wm. G. MeAdoo, who stoutly refused the nomination for the presidency at the San Francisco convention in 1920 and who is, perhaps, the most outstanding figure in the Democratic party today, spoke in Convention Hall. The speaker held his audiance in rapt attention while he spoke on the topics of the day. The one -subject upon which special emphasis was laid was the perniciousness of our present taxation laws, whereby the rich may avail themselves of tax exempt securities and thus make the burden of taxation to fall the heavier upon the poor.

On the subject of our international relations Mr. McAdoo feels that unless we have closer relations between all the nations of the world, America will be drawn into another bloody war. When party hatreds were let loose after the armistice, said the -speaker, American idealism was lost. WHAT IS A NUISANCE?

ATTENTION HOG MEN Due to the fact that a number of the serum companies are running advertisements urging farmers to vaccinate their own hogs, I have taken the matter up with Mr. J. H. Mercer, Livestock Sanitary Commissioner, both as to the law involved and the advisability of men other than veterinarians vaccinating hogs. Mr.

Mercer advises that it is necessary for all, including the veterinarians, to secure a permit, the law stating that it is unlawful for anyone not having a permit to inject virulent hog cholera blood (virus) into any hog in the state and attaches a penalty of not. less than $100 for those who do not comply with the law. Mr. Mercer states that he will issue permits to hog men to vaccinate their own hogs where he feels sure that they are competent and reliable but advises that the services of a veterinarian be secured for the work. There is a reason for the law as carelessness or lack of knowledge in vaccinating may lead not only to heavy loss in the herds vaccinated but prove a menace to other herds in the vicinity.

Hog cholera vaccination is good insurance and should be done extensively. It would prove profitable for those having small herds to arrange with their neighbors to have the work done at the same time: and thus save expense of each paying the, veterinarian for a trip from town. Arthur L. Myers, Co. Agent.

CELSWELL 'CHURCH NOTES There will be preaching Saturday night and Sunday morning. The Quarterly Conference will follow the Saturday night service and communion will follow the Sunday service. G. W. Weidemier, Pastor.

3 DR. CULP ADDRESSES GRADUATES On last Wdnesday evening Dr. E. J. Culp of Topeka addressed the graduating class of Marion high school.

The subject upon which he spoke, "Sealed Orders" and the way in which the subject was treated were unique and interesting. The speaker held the rapt 'attention of his audience from start to finish and the suggestions made to the graduates (which the speaker protested were not to be taken as advice) were timly and to the point. Some of the high lights of Dr. Culp's address were as follows: "White dominance will never save the world." "The spirit of liberty is dead." "Hatred of the white race is the dominant note among the red, yellow, brown and black races." "Order will not be restored by the dominion of one nation over another." "There is but one way the white race can save itself--the spirit of tolerance, cooperation and love." Worthy of special mention was the duet by Anna Seifert and Esther Pankratz. The selection by the high school chorus, under the direction of Mrs.

Fey, accompanied by Bernice Siebert, was very much enjoyed. KNODE GOES TO MAYOS Mr. Frank Knode of the Elk neighborhood left for Rochester, Minn. last Friday where he will take treatment from the Mayo Bros. Mr.
