In the libraries of the future, the historical volumes, marked critical period of the world's history. The whole world is now in a frenzy of discontent. In the old world new parties with new policies, each striving for controle, are walking hand in hand wit'h the spectre of distrust, where they are not already dying in the flame of fratricidal war. In the United States profiteering has become a science, all sense of vulues is gone' Bolshevism is raising its vicious head, and labor and capital, by passing the buck, each to the other, are leaving the middle class bearing the brunt of the burden. 1920, will deal with a I 0"9"Q"Q"6"8"8"6"fr9 O ' A a aa a a a a a a a a a Q A '-- CLOTHING "!""

A A You can not perform your duties as a citizen of this country unless you think right; you can not think right unless you are fully informed; you can nrt be fully informed unless you rerd a daily newnpaper. As a citizen, and as a voter, you wish to vote intelligently. You wish to know what the leaders of the big political parties are offering as the panacea for this present condition. In order to perform this duty intelligently, you must have access to the news as it is published day by day. Granted that it is your duty to read a daily newspaper, it is also your duty to read the paper that will give you the most news, particularly when its cost is the same as the others. The Louisville Herald has the largest circulation of any morning newspaper in Kentucky, and all Louisville newspapers are sold at the same price, this is proof that it is considered the best paper by the most people. self-evede- nt Alhin Mi lira v XVT Columbia, .. t A Kentucky Next Door to The Adair County New Office. 1 -- J The Louisville Herald gives you the news from the Associated Press, that wonderful news gatheripg organization, which covers the entire world with its list of correspondents; in addition it gives you all the news from Europe that is gathered by the Universal News Service; this in addition to The Herald's pwn list of special correspondents and its editorial staff. Nonewspaper can give you more than this -- few can give you as much. The Louisville Herald, apart from its general news value, thoroughly covers the financial world, and keeps you fully informed as to the daily fluctuations on all marketable commodities. News of the world of sports is more than a tabulation of sporting events, as compiled for The Herald's sport page. The Louisville Herald contains more features of general family interest than we have space to specify in the short space of this advertisement; but we will say this much, that there is something of interest to every member of your family in every issue. We will, if you are unfamiliar with The Herald, gladly send you a sample copy on request.
