SIZE, strength, resiliency, a really safe tread, good looks —these are the outstanding points that are making Fisk Cord Tires the standard for tire value today. With no exceptions, Fisk Tires challenge comparison with those of any other make. The Fisk appeal is to the man w T hose judgment directs the spending of his money. There’s a Fisk Tire of extra value in every site, for car, truck or speed wagon £

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, TUESDAY, JUNE 13, 1922

DELEGATES TO BEN HUR MEET HAVE RETURNED (Continued from page one) banquet, the delegation wended its way to the little theatre of the Masonir Temple where the Temple Degree was given to all delegates. _ Wednesday. June 7. at 9:00 a. m. was the business session, and at 1:00 p. in., a photograph was taken of the delegates and visitors at the Wallace home. This home belongs to the Tribe of Ben Hur in memory of D. W. (iernrd, the founder of the order. At 2:00 p. m. a memorial session was held in whirh Mr. W. Honthaler, Dean of Moose Heart had charge. At this session over ten thousani dollars was pledged to the Gerard Educational Aid Foundation, or Free Scholarship Fund. Seven of the students of the Free Scholarship were present at this session. Each responded as they were called on, and gave good talks. They each made the statement that had it not been for this wonderful previleie of the free scholarship, they could not of gone to college, add they could not have had the higher education. This memorial was started in 1920 and twelve awards have been made, nine of which are on their second year, and one having graduated. Dr. Ront haler was chosen a member of the board of trustees of the Educational Foundation and is also one of the finance committee. He is noted for helping other institutions and in raising money to finance them. Wednesday evening over one hundred and fifty candidates were given the Melters Degree, which added much to the merriment of the meeting. Dr. R. H. Gerard, Supreme Chief acted as King Melter. The meeting was considered the best ever held, and largest attended tnd will ong be remembered by those who had the privelege to attend. Tin aetx meeting will be held in two years. June 1924.

HAYMAKING IS IN FULL SWING (Continued from page one) one of the largest the county and state las had for a few years. Since the •lover is ripening early for hay, it is yery s probable that there will be a fine .Top of clover seed harvested from the second cutting of the little clover. The farmers will be extremely busy rom now until after threshing. Corn plowing and hay making are both in trogress at present, and wheat cutting •ime will soon be here Since the corn ■vas planted so late this year the hay naking and wheat-cutting will greatly nterfere with proper cultivation of he corn nrop. STINKING SMUT FOUND IN WHEAT (Continued from page one) The simple use of formaldahyde will completely eradicate all stinking smut ind the farmers who have used the reatment have found it completely effective. Counts made in different fields showed that as high'as 3 per cent stinking smut was found. INITIATION OF C. L. OF C. HERE (Continued from page one) Miss Agnes Costello. Following the initiation a supper will be served in the C. L. of C. hall fifty cents per plate. A large number is expected from each of the other three cities and the meeting will be a large and interesting one. LA FOLLETTE FOR PRESIDENT BOOM (Continued from page one) The Wisconsin senator is now virtually the only outspoken champion of labor in congress. He recently delivered a strong labor speech in the senate, forecasting a fight by labor for its life against organized groups of employers. This is the fight which Gompera,.and other leaders have sought to visualize to the. convention now in session here.

At the recent conference for political action In Chicago, LaFollette was mentioned as the logical man to coalesce the liberal labor groups in the 1324 campaign. While the political sharps of the American Federation of Labor are not today openly favoring a third party, some of them think LaFollette could so unite the progressive sentiment which recent primaries have disclosed to be so strong, that he —and organized labor —would hold the balance of power between the republican and democratic parties and be able perhaps to make LaFollette the republican presidential nominee in 1924.

BAPTISTS HOLD HOT ARGUMENTS Over Principles Which the Baptist Church Will Follow in Future (I'nllnl I'rfM Sfrylrf.) Indianapolis, June 13. —(Special to Dally Democrat) —Rebel fundamental ists in the Northern Baptist convention tried to muster enough strength today to seize control of the Northern church from the radicals. They held a pre-convention meeting and invited the 4,000 delegates to hear their views and discuss the principles upon which the church stands. Threats of a division were heard, but the radicals control three fourths of the 3,000,000 Baptists north of the Mason-Dixon line and the threats were unheeded. They admitted the fight this year was stronger than in past conventions but said it would not develope into rumpus meeting. The two factions are fighting over what principles the church shall follow. Fundamentalists say follow the Bible “from cover to cover.” Liberals advocate interpretation of certain figure of speech and the promotion of religious education through social work without following the Bible as it is written literally. Mrs. Helen Barett Montgomery, president of the convention, will call for unity in the church when the gavel falls formally opening the meeting tomorrow. Many delegates look forward to hearing William Jennings Bryan expound his theory on Darwinism, and the origin of mankind. BOY SCOUTS CANVASS CITY TO RAISE FUNDS FOR CITY PLAYGROUNDS Members of the Decatur Troop of Boy Scouts were canvassing the city this afternoon to raise funds for building and eequiping playgrounds for the children of Decatur.
