Money and Tbe Times. It is hard for the average man to understand the so-called money question. A year or two ago money was plentiful, but all prices were high and a great many people find it difficult to make both ends meet. Today prices are much lower, but money is scarce, and. many people are having hard times. - ^ ile fact is that the man who saves a part of his earning, wheth er his earnings be much or little, will never have any really hard times'. - As his savings accumulate he can face the approach of old age or illness or dull business with com parative-equanimity. Some people, will always be hard up no matter whether money is plentiful or scarce. Most of those who are talking about hard times today were not prospering very much when money was plentiful. The College Graduates. A new. crop of college graduates will be'lthjown upon the world this. Summehi; May they live long and pfosper." But-while we are wishing them well wf.would like to make a few suggestions to them. If the youug man with a college diploma thinks he - The Executive Order. The President’s order follows: "When a vacancy -exists or here after occurs in the first, second or third class, if soul vanancy is not fill-- ed by nomination of soma person within the competitive classified civil service who has the required qualifi cations, then the Postmaster Gener al, shall.certify the fact to the Civil Service Commission, which shall forthwith holdjan open competitive examination to test the fitness of ap- plicats to fill such vacancy and when such examinations has been held and the papers in connection therewith have.been rated the said commission shall certify the results thereof to the Postmaster General who shall submit to the President the name of one of the highest- three qualified eligibles for appointment to fill such vacancy unless it is established that the character or residence of any such applicant disqualifies him for appointment: Provided: That to the expiration of the term, of any person appointed, to such position through examition before Uie Civil, Service CommisiqnV the Postmaster General may in his discretion, submit the name of-such persons to the Presi dent for renomination without f urth-. er examination therein provided for. "If, under this order, it is desired is entitled tb to make nomination for any officer special considerations or favor, hei# c^ a person in the competitive classi- tSiere ^ c oHateral ^ Thin again this vojunu^oi money • R a tio n at f t h i s ^ , will (whicj, w°re husine^ values, "Se) whi T clamorinSlor at this * whe“ treOted, .will- tlleW s tnPJ°p0rti0n?te-1>art bf ethe hear.; this then will i wh- I n of more re- , ^ h s h o u l d j ^ ^ ^ . esseamK the t a Hk mistaken. • The.sooner he gets that notion out of his head tke better off he will be. The fruth is that -the', world ex pects more of a college graduate than-of an ignorant man or a man with a poor education. In that re spect, at least, the college graduate' ii handicapped. : If a young man’s college educa? tion does not make him more effi cient, more productive, he has spent his time and money in vain. The world expects the young col- ieSe graduate to go to work and to show results, whether his work be in one of the professors, in merch andising, at one of the trades or on the farm. But he must work, and be must show results, if he comes up to expectations. This is a busy age. People of today have little patience for any kind of a drone, and none at all for an educated one. We repeat. More is expected of a college graduate than a man with a poor education at all, and if he does not measure up to expectation he will soon be discounted and cast aside.-, The world will be more tolerant of the failures and shortcomings of a man without the advantages of a <»llege course than with the man whp has had such advantages. . - -And in that respect, we repeat a- gain, the young college graduate is handicapped. Perhaps this should not-be the.case, but it is, and we are merely doing the young gradu ates a kindness in calling their at tention to.it. Iftheyhave the right kind of: stuff in them they can very quickly; over-come it. . ‘ - CIeaveto Carolina. -.Cleave to North Carolina,, stay in her, fertilize her, till her, cherish her rising, manufactures, extend her railways, encourage and endow: her schools and colleges, sustain her mtitutions, develop her resour ces, promote knowledge, virtue and religion throughout her" border, stimulate state pride and exalt her. renown.—Thainas Ruffin.

This right of selec tion is -the kind of responsibility which cannot legally be and is not abridged by act; of Congress, and is inexact harmony with the spirit Gf the civil service principle. "There are 52,332 postmasters -Df these 39,4$3 are in the fourth class,- and are now under snch civil service laws and, regulations as bringing them within, the privileges and con dition of the classified service.

It is a stept forward, measured by the re quirements' of progress, and is one which I hope will-be make. Under existing laws the executive has no power to require that these offices, be, placed'in the classified service "Moving in that direction, how ever the executive order. issued to day provides that if any such vacan cy is not filled by nomination for promppetitive classified civil service then an open' competitive examina tion shall be-held and the appoint* ment shall be made from of the high est thjcfej&jgaijjigs, as required now by law-ffi^^^pas8ified civil service. “This.

The policejudge evidontly of saw it as it was and said he imposed fine lieu of a road sentence only be cause the prosecution asked for mercy for the defendant; in which the plaintiff made a serious mistake. The type who commit near as- sults on women such as described are not peculiar to Greensboro. They are becoming, almost common in every community. They take a chance on the idea that if there is rebuff the plea of mistake will pass, or that the victim of the insult will prefer to pass it in silence rater than endure the humiliation in cident to publicity; and for' these reason there are many such cases never made public. For be it from fis to suggest voil- ence but it is'impossible to get a way from the feeling but when these things occur the nearest male Re lative-would be fully justified in getting busy with a shot-gun. But as that method has been abandoned the good men and. women-of every community' shouid'. encourage' the prosecution of . .every case of that character.; and a public sentiment should be arousedthat would mean a road sentance. ^ The fact is riot overlooked that possible there are cases in which woman fake too much risk in going alone at tinfes—needlessly expose themselves to the insults of hood lums.

Mr. Editor:—Allow, me spaee-in your paper to say a few words.ahout the condition of our country as I see it It looks like we are living in the last days of the world—that. God, in his glory, would be bound to wipe the earth out of existance. Take whisky, and it looks like Jhe. man who has gone to the branches to make it has said that he is going to make it, rega-dless of all the laws m d leagues, regardless of the courts and officers.. It looks like the people would quit fooling with it now as the new law will not allow a man to pay out. We had a peace and order league started at Cornatzer .a ■ few weeks ago. and I think it would be a good thing if it was carried outright, I am in favor of the right kind of a league, but we find. from reading God’s own book that if a man does do these bgd things to go to him and talk to him and forgive him. and. if he does it again go to him again I think that if we would take our Bible and go to a man and talk' to him in the right way that we could do more good than using the law so much. I don’t believe that there has been a member of the league that has been to any person to speak to them about the way they were doing or about the hereaftgr and the final punishment that God is going , to send on them. It looks like some people Join this league in order to get a little money out of reporting and they don’t care anything about anybody but themselves. It is all right to use the law, but-1 want to say that when we take a man and send him to the pen, away from his wife and children, and then we don’t care for his family while he has gone Iikea man t> pay for the. meanness he has done, we . have committed a worse sin than the man who has gone to the pen. I know of a'man near here who was run away ,from his, wife and children by ■ the new law, and I will say that I don’t know where h"e is and I don’t care, but his wife and children do care, and they say they don’t, know.: This, man’s wife thinks as much of him as y.otir wife does-of you, and now they are suffering for the need o f his support ana I want to ask the- league how many of their members has been to see this family and asked them what they needed. Don’t you believe this is wrong? Now, let’s stop and think a little while. Don’t yon believe that God would bless- us more to let this man pay out and come home and work for his family and be with them. If we are all sinners—and we are—let’s go up and pay for the sins we have committed before We try to make the other fellow pay for his, for you know we are told in the Bi ble that one sin is just as great in the sight of God as the other, but let the man that has no sin take his Bible and go to the man he knows is committing this sin and talk to him. Some bne will say he knows it is a- gainst the iaw. That is true. The sinner knows that unless he repents he will go to hell, so let’s not have anymore preaching,. That is why our country.is in the shape it- if to day. SVe, as Christian people, are not willing to take up our cross and follow Jesus. As I said in the "be ginning, I am in favor of. the: league and am against whisky, but I'do- be lieve that the way the law is. now it is causing a lot of people to lose their lives. Take a man who is- rcaking whisky. Whenour officers run In on him he knows-he cannot pay out, and lnfwill do his worst, - Now, let’s try kind talk. You know the • poet says: ’ Little deeds of kindness. Jit- tle words of love, make the earth and ocean,, like the heaven above,” and I believe that a Christian man had rather see a man out of trouble than in trouble, and if he had he Will first use good means and then' the law.- I don’t find that the Biblesays any more against making whisky than it did fifty years ago, and to tell the truth, I cannot find where it says anything at all against the man ufacture of whisky, while it does say if a man is in- trouble let -him drink strong drink and trouble no more. Butour laws havechanged and I thmk it is our duty to see that the law is obeyed, butTet’s go at it in a Bffile way and IeavejSaSihe- old- man who tried Christ after his fast in the wilderness. I would like for some good Christian league man to answer this ar.d tell me Where I will findin.the Bible where- it iB -wrong to make whisky, and tell - me if he. don’t believe it* would be - better to use Biblemeaps and .then- the Iaw1 Christ said to do good for evil, and ■you know that- Christ said: that ,e man never got so low but what He was willing .to. raise him-.up.-; Hadn’t you raThe/take your^ble-Bndlifti man up than to.use the law and send him to the pen and disgrace him for life.

And thisrin- sures for the Farmington communi ty still greater advancemept in an agricultural. way.

The dain tiness of this farbric and the lovely colors shown In it, have resulted In a tremendous vogue for organdie dress es; besides it is easy to make-up and comparatively inexpensive. It is used for hats and bonnets, for trim mings and flowers and combined with other materials in numberless ador ably pretty and simple gowns. Some times it finds itself in the company of gingham and sometimes with silk, fitting in with one as well as with the other. But often two colors in organdie are made up together. The frock at the right of the two pictured, here, is an example of the two-color combination In which a light amethyst color is set off by 'pipings and vestee In pale yellow. The dress has a plain underskirt and long-tunic, the tunic having "side. panels • of four tiers-set together with pipings. In this dress a s . In nearly all others of or gandie, there is a sash of the material. The hat is also made to match. . The dress at the left is a pretty combination of red swiss,-dotted with white, and white organdie. . The un. derskirt, sash, collar and sleeve ruf fles, are of the organdie, and It is used as a piping to outline the tunic which is cut In four deep petals.- Ginghams in checks showing a color and white, as brown. and whiter blue and white and so on, are made up with plain organdies chosen . to match the colored check, the organdie serving for tunics and over-blouses. When in Quest of Hats 5S B I N selecting headwear becomingness ‘ is. above all things,- the most es sential factor to be considered: I t. is the intangible thing that-, makes the simplest Imt a succdss. and without-It the most elaborate and exquisite-is a failure.

TIierei are those who consider the filling of a pie the most important part of it, but the best of filling covered with q tough, . unpalat able crust, will spbil the pie for most ,.of us. . As Browning puts it (though not in this connection), a good pastry is “a framework which waits for a picture to frame.” Sour Cream Pie.—Take one cupful each, of sour-cream, sugar and raisins, one egg, -one tablespoonful of vinegar, one-half teaspoonful of salt, the same of cinnamon and nutmeg, one-fourth of a teaspoo'nfnl of cloves, mix well and bake with two crusts. Custard Pie.—There are some cooks who think a pie with less than four eggs is not to be served on the best tables. Howef er, a very good pie may be prepared with three or even two eggs to -a pint of milk, adding four or five tablespoonfuls of sugar and such flavoring as one likes. Where two eggs are used a 1 tablespoonful of flour may be added mixed with a little of the cold milk and the pie will be very satisfactory, though of course the more eggs used the greater, the food value. Date Pie.—Cook one-third of a pound of dates In the top of a double boiler. Put: through a sieve, then,add two eggs, a few gratings of nutmeg, one-fourth,teaspoonful: of-salt and two cupfuls of milk. - Bake -as a custard pie. .C u tn a f Pie.—Take one cupful of currants, one cupful of sugar,, one- fourth cupful ofjlour, mixed-with the sugar, two egg yolks and-a teaspoon ful of butter with two tablespoonfuls of water. Cook until smooth and turn Into a baked crust. Cover with a meringue made with the whites of two eggs and two to four tablespoonfuls of sugar. Dot with marshmallows and brown. The preserved currants may be used for this pie, using nearly two cupfuls for the pie. ■fc/La/:.

Synopsis.—In December, 1918, four men gathered in a hotel In Berne and heard one of the quartet, Carl Petereon, outline a plan to paralyze Great Britain and a t the same .time seize world power. The other three, Hocking, American, and Steineman and Von Gratz, Germans, all mil lionaires, agree to the scheme, pro viding another man, Hiram Potts, an American, is taken In. C apt Hugh (Bull-Dog) Drummond, a re tired officer, advertises for work that will give him excitement, sign ing “X10.” As a result he meets Phyllis Benton; a young woman who answered his ad. She, tells him of strange murders and rob beries by a band headed by Carl Peterson and Henry Laklngton. She fears her father is involve^.' Drummond goes to The Larches, Miss BentontS home, next door to The Elms, Peterson’s place. During the night Drummond leaves The Larches and explores The Elms. He discovers Lakington and Peter son using a thumbscrew on Potts, who signs a paper. Drummond rescues Potts and takes him to his own home. He also gets half of the paper torn in the light Peter son . visits Drummond, departing with a Urreat to return and rect ^er Potts and the tom^ paper. Hugh substitutes Mullings^for Potts. The band carry off MuUings and Hugh to The Elm6. aWhen Peterson dis covers the. hoax Drummond Is made to stay all night Irm a, Pe terson’s handsome daughter, warns Hugh he will be killed. He goes exploring during the night, runs into a cobra, escapes mysterious death and refrains from breaking Peterson's neck. Drummond enllst9 the aid of Algy Longworth, Toby Sinclair, Ted Jerningham and Jerry Seymour, the latter an aviator. Drummond discovers a man impersonating Potts. • CHAPTER V--Continued. —9— "Such is your rule. And I think you have failed, haven’t you, you un pleasant specimen of humanity? How will they kill you, I wonder?” It was at that moment that the man made his mistake. He looked away; only for a moment—but he looked away. Just as a cat’s nerves give after a while and it looks round for an avenue of escape, so did the crouch ing man take his eyes from Hugh. - And quick as any dog, Hugh sprang. With h is‘left hand he seized the • man’s, right wrist, with his’ right he seized his throat. Then he forced him upright against the door and held him there. Even when inch i>y inch he shifted his grip on the man’s knife hand he never took his eyes from his opponent’s face; even when with a sudden gasp of agony the man dropped his knife from fingers which, of a sudden, had become numb, the steady, merciless giare. still bored into his brain. "You’re not very clever at it, are you?” said Hugh softly. "It would be so easy to kill you now, and except for the inconvenience I should un doubtedly suffer, it mightn’t be a bad idea. But they know me downstairs, and it would make it so awkward when I wanted to dine here again. . . . So, taking everything into account, I think—” There was a sudden lighthlng move ment, a heave and a quick jerk.

As a fight It had- Oeen v poor cue. but his hraln vras busy wltli the j sort. Information he had heard. True, it had been scrappy In the extreme, and, in part, had only confirmed ’ what he had suspected all along. The wretched Granger had been foully done to death, for no other reason than that he was the millionaire’s secretary. Hugh’s Jaw tightened; it revolted his sense of sport. It wasn’t as If the poor blight er had done anything; merely because he existed and might ask inconvenient questions he had been removed. -And as the elevator shot downwards, and the remembrance of the grim struggle he had had In the darkness of The; Elms the night before came back to his mind, he wondered once, again If he had' done wisely in not breaking Peterson’s neck while he had the chance. He was still debating the question In his mind as he crossed the tea- lounge. “Why, Captain Drummond, you look pensive.’’ A well-known voice from a' table at his side made him look down, and he* bowed n little grimly. Irma Peterson was regarding him with a mocking smile. He glanced at her companion, a young man whose face seemed vaguely familiar to him, and then his eyes rested once more on . the girl. Even his masculine intelligence could ap preciate the perfection—In a slightly foreign style—of her clothes; and, as to her beauty, he had never been un der any delusions. “The Carltbn seems rqther. a favor ite resort of yours,” she continued,- watching him through half'closed eyes. “I think you’re very wise to make the most of it while you can.” . • “While I can?” said Hugh. “That sounds rather depressing.” “I’ve done my best,” continued the girl, “but matters have passed out of my hands, I’m afraid.” < Again Hugh glanced at her compan ion, but. he had risen and was talking to some people who had just come In. 'Is he one of the' firm?” he re marked. “His face seems familiar.” “Oh, no!” said the girl. “He Is— just a friend.” Slie leaned forward suddenly. “Why don’t you- Joip;. us instead of so foolishly trying to’fight us? Believe me. Monsieur Hugh; it is the only thing that con possibly save you. You know too much:” ‘Is the invitation 'to amalgamate official, or from your own charming: brain?” murmured Hugh. . ’ ‘Made on- the spur Of the moment,” •she said lightly. ' “But it may be re garded as official.” - “Tm afraid it must be declined on the spur of the moment,” he an swered in the same tone. “And equal ly to be regarded as official. Well, an revoir. Plrase tell Mr'. Peterson how sorry I am to have missed him.” “I will most certainly,” answered the girl. “But then, man ami, you will be seeing him again soon, without, doubt. . .” . '-T.- She waved a charming hand In fare well, and turned to her companion. But Drumffiond, though he.wejjt into the hail outside, did not immediately leave the hotel. Instead, he button holed an exquisite being arrayed in gorgeous apparel, and led;him to a point of vantage. . You see that girl,” he remarked, "having tea with a man at the third table from the big palm,? Now, can you tell me who the man is? I seem to know his face, but I can’t.p u t a name to it.” ; “That, sir," murmured the exquisite being, with the faintest perceptible scorn at such Ignorance, “is the mar quis of Laldley. His lordship is fre quently here.” “Laidley!” cried Hugh, In sudden ex citement “Laldley ! The duke of Lampshirels son! You priceless, old stuffed tomato—the plot thickens.” Completely regardless of the scan dalized horror on the exquisite ,being’s face, he smote him heavily In the stomach and stepped into PaIl Mali. For clear before his memory had come three lines on the scrap of paper he. had torn from the table at The Elms that first night, when he had grabbed the dazed millionaire from - under Peterson’s nose. ■ ■ earl necklace and the are at present chess of-Lamp- The duchess of Larapshire’s pearls were world-famous; the marquis of Laidley -was apparently enjoying his tea. And between the two there seemed to be. a connection- rather too, obvious to be missed. THREE.■ . ’ ' . * ** ' . * • ' ' I - “I’m glad .you. two fellows came down,” said Hugh ,thoughtfully, as he entered the sitting-room of his bunga low at Goring. Dinner was over, and stretched in three chairs were-Peter Darrell, Algy Longworth, and Toby Sinclair. -*T>id you know that a. man came-here this- afternoon; Peter?”- “I did'not. Who was It?” - “Mrs. Denny has just told me.” Hugh reached out a hand for hlB pipe, and proceeded to stuff It with tobacco. “He came about:the water. -And he told her that I had told hjm to come.- Unfortunately, I'd-done nothing of the “What do you mean, Hugh?” asked Toby Sinclair. “It’s pretty obvious, old boy,” said Hpgli grimly. “I should say that about flue hours ago Peterson found out . that our one and only Hiram 0. Potts was upstairs.” “Good Lord!” spluttered Darrell, by now .very wide awake, "what do we do,- sergeant-major?” ’ ' “We take it In turns—two at a time—to sit up , with Potts." Hugh glanced at the other three. “ D—n It —you blighters—wake up I” “I-don’t know what it Is,” Darrell- said, rubbing his eyes? “I feel most In fernally sleepy.” ."Well, listen to me—confound you . . . Toby!” r' " “Sorry. old man.” With a start : Sin-, clair sat up In his chair and blinked at Hugh. 1 “They’re almost certain to try and get him tonight,-” went on ‘ Hugh., “Having given the show away by leaving a clue on the wretched secre tary, they must get the. real man as soon as possible. It’s far too danger ous to leave the—leave the—” His head dropped forward on his chest: a- short, half-strangled snore came from his lips. It had- the effect of, waking him for. the moment, and he staggered to h is'feet. . The other three, sprawling in their chairs, were openly and unashamedly asleep; even the dogs lay In fantastic attitudes, breathing heavily,, inert like; logs. “Wake up!” shouted Hugh wildly. “For God’s sake — wake up! ': We’ve been drugged I", An Iron weight seemed’to .be press-, ing down on his eyelids: the desire for sleep grew stronger and stronger. For . a few moments more he fought against It, hopelessly, despairingly ;; while his legs seemed not to belong to him, and there Vsbs a roaring noise In his ears. And then, just before unconsciousness overcame him, there came to his bemused brain the sound of a whistle thrice repeated from out side the window. With a last stu pendous effort he fought his way to ward it, and for a moment he stared- info the darkness. There- were dhh- flgures moving through the shrubs, •and suddenly one seemed to.' detach itself. It came nearer, and the light fell on the man’s face. His nose and mouth were covered with a sort of pad-, but the cold, sneering eyes were unmistakable. lLakington!” gasped Hugh, and then the roaring noise increased In his. head; his legs struck work alto gether. He collapsed on the- floor and la y ‘sprawling, while Lakington1-Sis face pressed against the glass outside, watched in. silence. “Draw the curtains.” Lakington was speaking, his voice muffled be hind the pad, and one of the' men did as he said..',There .were four In: all, each with a similar pad over his mouth and nose. “Where did you p u t' the generator, Brownlow?” 'In ,the coal-scuttle.” A man whom Mrs. DennyNvould have had no diffi culty in recognizing, even with the mask on his face, carefully, lifted; a small black box out of the scuttle from behind, some coal, and "shook it gent ly, holding it to his ear. “It’s - fin ished,” he remarked, and Lakington nodded. “An ingenious invention is gas,” he said, addressing another . of - the men. “We. owe your nation quite: a debt of gratitude for the idea.” A guttural grunt left no doubt. as to what that nation was, and Laking- ton dropped the box into his pocket. “Go get him,” he ordered briefly, and the others left the room. Contemptuously Lakington kicked one of the dogs; .it rolled over and lay motionless In its new position. Then he went.in turn to each of;the three men sprawling' in the chairs. With no attempt a t ‘gentleness- he turned their faces up to Uie light, and studied them deliberately;* then he let their heads roll back again-with a thud. Finally, he went to the window and-' stated down at Drummond.: In his eyes was a. look of cold fury, and he kicked, the unconscious - man - sav agely In tlie ribs. “You 'young swine,” he muttered. “Do you think Tll forget that blow on the jaw?” He took another box out of . his pocket and looked at It lovingly. ' “Shall I?” Witli a short laugh he replaced It. ‘-‘It’s too- good" a death for you, Captain Drummond; D. S. O., M. C; Just to snuff out in your sleep. No,,my friend, I think I. can devise' something better than that; some thing really, artistic.” - : . Tyro other men came In as -he turned away, and Lakington looked at them. ' -c • . “Well,”,, he. asked, 1Tjave you- got: the old woman?” “Bound and gagged In the kitchen,” answered, one- .of: them •: laconically. '"Are you going to do this crowd’ In?”' . The speaker looked at the uncon scious men . with hatred In his eyes. .‘They encumber ' the earth—this breed of puppy.” ' : “They - will not encumber it- for •long,” said. Laklngton softly. “But the: one In.the window therg la not going to die so easily. I have a small unsettled score with him. . .. ." “AU right; he’s In the car.” . A voice came from outside the window, and witlj a last look at Hugh Drum mond, Lakington fumed away. “Then we’U go,’.’ he remarked. “Au revoir, my blundering young bull. Be fore I’ve ‘finished with you; you’ll scream for mercy. And you won’t get it. ...” Through the sflll night air there came the thrumming of the englne'of a powerful car. Gradpally it died away and there was silence. And then, with a sudden crack, Peter Dar rell’s head rolled over and hit the arm of his chair. .. CHAPTER VI. In Which a Very Old Game Takes Place on the . Hog’e Back.;. ONE. A thick grey mist lay over_ the Thames. It covered the water, and the low fields to the west like a thick white carpet; it drifted, sluggishly undef the old bridge which spans the river between Goring and Streatley.

It looked cold ■ . . cold and dead.- Slowly, aiiaost imperceptibly, the vapor rose, and spread outwards up the wooded hills ' by . Basildon, It drifted through the shrubs and rose bushes of a ' little garden, which stretchetj from a bungalow, down to the water’s edge, until at length wisps of it brushed gently-round the bunga- Ipw itself. -Suddenly the window of one of the downstair rooms was flung open, and - a man' with a white hag gard face leaned' oht drawing great gulps of fresh . air into his lungs. Three other men lay sprawling un- couthly In chairs, and two dogs lay mptionless on the hearthrug. After a moment or two the man withdrew, only to appear again with one of the others In his arms.-. And then, having, dropped ' his burden through the window on to the lawn outside, lie. repeated his performance with,._the remaining two. Finally he pitched the two dogs after them, and then, with his hand to his forehead, he staggered down to tlie water’s edge. • “Holy smoke !” he muttered to him self, as he idunged bis' head into' the cold water, "talk, about the’ morning after!".' After a while, with the water stiil dripping down hjs fade, he returned to the bungalow and found the other' three In various, stages of partial In sensibility. “Wake up, my hferoes,” he remarked, “and go and put your great fat heads In the river. We were all of -us drugged or doped somehow. And now,” lie , added bitterly, “we’ve all got heads, and we have not got Potts.” “I don’t remember anything,” said Toby Sinclair, “except falling: asleep. Have they, taken him?” ' ■* .-■■ “Of course they have,” 'said Hugh. “Just before I went off I saw ’em all In the garden, and that swine Lakington was with them. However, while you go and put. your nuts in the I’ll - go up and . make certain.’’ -With a’ grim smile he watched.: the three men lurch down to the water; then ho turned-and went upstairs to Oie room which had been occupied by the American millionaire. It was empty, ,as; he had known it would be, and with a smothered curse be made his way downstairs again. Copyright by Geo. H. Doran Co.

I propose tfiat we should tackle the blighters tonight.” “Tonight!” echoed Darrell. “Where?” “At The Elms, of course. That’s where the wretched Potts is for a certainty.” . ' “Apd how do you propose that we ‘should set about it?” demanded Sin clair. i Drummond drained his port and grinned gently. " “By stealth, dear old beans—-by stealth.

Thelegal methods being taken by city and state governments' to curb rent hogs should, if stressful, have an important bearing upon the gen eral redaction of prices. In ths large cities probably a great major ity of the laboring classes are ren ters. They do not own tlieir own homes. When greedy landlords, now commonly termed rent hogs, boost their rents to impossible figur es, it is b u t. natural that the < cupants of these house"' and apart ments should insist upon wages suf ficient to." meet the strain. It is just such conditions that keep pric-; es up, and will prevent any appre- ■ ciable decline as long as these con ditions exist.

MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 1921.NUMBER 48. Remarkable Spectacle. Greensboro News. Mr. Linney stands pat, and tells the Republican senators—albeit in diplomatic terms—that hie will see them futher before he will recant. If he loses his federal job, why, he will just have to get along wiihout it, for lie will not purchase a feder al job at the price of his,self-re spect. Which is just about what we had expected Frank Liuney to say. But isn’t it a beautiful state of af fairs when the acknowledged1 leader of a g re a t political party is forced to make a statement-like that to a little group of self-constituted arbi ters of the distiny of Republicanism? Harding got 232,000 votes in North Carolima last year? and all but a handful of those ballots were cast by white men and women.of North Carolina. If those white-Republi cans had had any idea that the Re- j ublican party meant to turn the state over to the negroes; the -vast majority of them wouldn’t have touched a Republican ballot with a j air of tongs. But then they knew, the Republican leadars, especially Linney, the state chairman; and when Linney promised them a white government they beleived that he meant it. • If the nomination of Linney- as district attorney for the western dis trict was not satisfactory to. these people they have kept ■ remarkably still about it. The on'y white man who prt tested was Marion iButler, and even he presently 'swung into line with the rest. So we have the remarkable spectacle of ajn an under whose leadership the Republican party in North Carolina had rolled up the greatest vote in its history, a man who had won the'respect even of the Democrats, and a man' ap parently possessing theentire confi dence of the voting stranger of the party in this state, publicly humil iated by his own party in Washing ton. And on what ground have these senators assumed that Linney is incapable of, or uftwillingto, en force the laws of the United States? On the ground that he is unsatis factory to five negroes. God save the mark! A jman.en tirely satisfactory to 332,006-White voters, more than 43 per centofthe entire voting strength of the state, ani in addition a man satisfactory to scores of thousands of votersiof the otherparty, cannot be UnitedStates attorney in this state because ; five: negroes don’t like him! .In - other words, the opinion of each, of these negroes outweighs that, of "45,090 white Republicans in ;N.o.rth; . Caro lina—a dainty dish to set before vot? ers of this state, isn’t it? The state chairman condemned without a: lieariOg, had it not been for the in-, terposition of Overman, a Democrat on the testimony of five negroes! AU the effort of those tnefa who be- leive in the soundness of.-the funda mental doctrines of the Republican party and who have labored for 20 years to cleanse, it of ' the wholly extraneous, but nevertheless fatal, negro issue, defeated ’ because that effort doesn’t please- five' negroes! The Republican party, in short, forbidden to become a real force in ^orth Carolina, because that would- offend five negroes! Thosesoutherners who have be lieved that the one-party system is ? dog on any state, and who. have erefore believed^that the revival 0 F Republican party meant better government, no matter who ■ hap pened to be in Controll-Hare-stricken sPeechless by this development. No comment that is at the . same time * C(luate aud decorotis occurs to hem. Faced by that the Republi- ?an Party can’t clean up, -iioinatter novv muCli it desires.to do so, bel ?fUse ^ve negroes might object, ey find no posaic and ordinary ng sh that does justice’ to the One Thing After Another.

Schwab Says Labor Can Only Expect What It Earns and Must Give Com plete Service. “I IiavgZjust returned from" Eu rope, and I come with renewed ad miration tor the courage, the enter prise and the'determinatknr Which is being displayed in Itlay, in Bel gium, in France and in'- England. These nations, which were wonder ful as our allies in war, are marvel ous in meeting the tasks of peace. But there is one thought above all others borne in upon ine by my ob servations in Europe. .It is this, Ger many has gone to work sis has no other nation in Europe. Her word ing people are economizing, sacri ficing and throwing themselves, in to real production, believing as-1 do that the strength and prosperity of a nation depends upon the efficiency of its labor. I have something, of a stock in contemplating this thought. “Is it possible that after haying won the war, we of the Allied na tions with everything in our hands, will .allow Germany to win the peace through the. efforts of her labor? -'1Will it"be'possible that the ad versity will have taught the Ger mans such- a lesson oii the need of ‘thrift and hard effort that they will gain the parment benefit from the war while labor in the Allied coun tries reposes at its ease and lets go the nipst Jirilliant opportunity of all its history? • Germany can today put a ton of steel in England at a price $20 cheaper than whafciscosts England to make it. Germany to day is selling ' pneumatic tools in Detroit where formerly we. »itiade machinery and shipped it to Ger many cheaper than she could make it. The difference is solely a mat ter of labor costs. “It is estimated that there are five million men out of work in this coflntry. The Pennsylvania. Rail road alone:!iias been "compelled to dischaige 93,000 men. It is ac cordingly of supreme importance that the workingman .,as-well as the capitalist restore our prosperity, and the only .sure road to restored pros perity is through thrift and haid work of our people as a whole. "I believe, iu reward and that every man should be rewarded as nearly as possible for the good work he does. The more work the more reward—the .better wprk the still higher reward. But labor 011 the whole can be . paid only what labor as a.whole earns, and if some sec- toiris of labor exact more than their share of the current produce of the world/ other sections of labor are going to suffer and receive less than th’eir share. . . “We taik of a minimum of living wage for the individual, but the comm unity itself must first be al lowed to live.. Ourlaborersare en titled to a high standard of living and we should throw around them eyery possible opportunity to realize it. But the-'average standard of liv ing will necessarly depend upon the average amount of work done by all men and not upon the. mere money, rate? which are paid as wages/ Wages are not gifts and the world’s wage bill cannot be paid unless it is earned by labor as a whole. ‘ ‘The same condition’ confronts*, our merchant marine. , Whether iii operating; shijpis or repairing ships,; labor costs are iopelessly,higlil. ‘ 1BusljJ^jyg; America Lis .burden-:.: ed w itttt^l^S^d restrictions of one kind-ahd afioflien • The Adminis tration at Wishingtoii will legislate soundy-with-referetiee to’both tariff;: and taxation]? i Kwill develop a sys- ' tem of custdn duties which will pro -, mpte and'hot-hinder. the develop--' men t of industry.'The masterminds, of the nation are giving careful' study and : developing 'methods of -liquidating our war deht.

From the rushing timps we are-getting back to_ normal Price are lower wager are lower and the volumn of business is less yet after all there is not much difference in,tiling?. We all made more and spent more than we do now that’s all. If a mau made- $7 sL day and spends it and now mak es $2 a day and spends it he is about the same. If a fatmer- got $2 x> for a bale of cotton, and he spent the money for cars, etc., he had thfe'fun of riding in a Hudson when he ean now ride in a' Ford. What’s the odds? They both ge. you there and to get there is the the thing. If we live in a $2c,ooo home and values tumble and the same home is worth only $10,000 and we still live in it what difference does it make except in our credit rating? We all love to be humbug ged.' If the home was taxed at $20,000 and a rate of 48 cents ap plies we paid the same tax as we. will pay at $10,000 valuat on and a 96 cent rate is_made. The only difference is we thought we were richer than we care now. Piaimont Carolina will get more valuable as the years come and go. The more people we have will make higher values. W earethe cheapest sec tion of the world when you consid er our opportunities. These things make values. Lands get cheap only when the people move away. The more people the more land is wanted. Close down our mdusti ies stop our corporations, which pay half our taxes, and then.we-would complain indeed. We nf'ed these industries as we' need more farmers to help build up our sections aud help keep down taxes. Without these we connot hope for better roads and schools. The thing to exsist on is to aid all people and make all be equal under, the laws. Tax all alike according to what they have and have equal rights to all. Butnomatterwhatthevalues or rates and taxes can never be lower unless we cut do jvn on ex penditures. We must cut out. ex penditures to get lower taxes or we must raise taxes. .

The Questions Answered, Editor of Davie Record:—In the issue of the 25th of May, the Record, asks the following questions with re gard to the election to1 consolidate the schools of Mocksville Townships How many new teachers will be em ployed? How much will their salaries be raised? Whowill provide funds to pay the extra expense? / In answer to these questions there are employed in the Mocksville schools at present eight teachers." There is in the district proposed to be tak-wi in sixteen teiehjrs. two a Jericho, two at Holmans, one at Oak Grove, one at Bethel. There is at present then in the district fourteen teachers. These fourteen teachers are enough, for the consolidated schools. In regard to the second question: How much will their salaries be in creased? The State Board of Educa tion fixes the salaries of the teachers according to certificate held and years experience. The only way the •salaries of the teachers will be in ereased will be by employing more competent teachers. The people should certainly be willing to. pay m increase if a better teacher is secured. There is not likely to be much increase in the salaries for most of the Mocksville teachers al ready hold thej ^highest certificate <ivem Now in regard to the third ques tion: The county pays all the. ex penses of six months of the school as it now stands and it will continue to In so after the consolidation. In addition to this, the State will give an A Grade High School (and that is the kind of a school to be established by the consolidation) Sixteen Hundred dollars a year. This fund is not being received from the S^ate at present because we have not in A Grade High School, Then in addition to that appropriations will oe made from State & United States for vocational training. So far as running the school is concerned there will be no additional expense, except buildings and trucks. Advantages of consolidation wfti be that Mocks- ville will have funds enough and hildren enough to establish .an -A Grade High School and get the ap propriations to an A Grade High School. In regard to the country Jistricts, it is the only chance to get High School for’^these children aitnout sending them off to board ing schools. Consolidation of school listricts is tlie fixed policy of the jtate board of Eluci.tion. Weekby veek consolidated districts are being formed and ratified by a vote of .the people of the new districts. Jeru salem Towship. abut i g Moeksville township from east to west on the south has consolidated its -school dis- ricts._ Farmington Township or that part of it abutting Mocksville Township practically across: the Morthern boundry .of the Mocksville onsolidated school district has con solidated its school districts. In pur suance of the policy of the State Soard of Education at an early day the school of Fulton Township on east and CaJahaln Township on the west of Mocksville Township_will be consolidated. So another important question for the citizens of the. rural sections of Mocksville township to consider is to which consolidated school district"they desire to belong. SCHOOL TRUSTEES.. Jobn Hugh Peebles Dies Id Davie County. A message has been received here announcing the death of John -Hugh Peebles, a Confederate veter an of Davie county. He was eigh ty-five years of age, and had been, a patient sufferer for years, liavipg been paralyzed over ten years ago. He was a gentlemen of the old school, and one of the most read and'cultured men in the state. He was a graduate of Old Triu ity college and with the exception 'of the time he was; in the army ! spent his life quietly upon the farm. I Whe’n .war broke out among tne j states he was among the first to I volunteer -and went over the coun- ■ ty making speeches in behalf of the ■ cause. He was commissioned first lieutenant of the Forty-second E. C., calvalry, Co. E. and was 'later made captain, right. after which time he was-severely in the foot, and placed upon the retired list. He was greatly reverenced and loved by all his men, who affectionately entitled him Dad. Captain Peebles was bom Nov. I i 1 1837,_and was married in 1864 to Miss Martha Harris, daughter of Col. W. G. Harris, of Catham county. To them was born five children, only two surviving, J. Gv Peebles, and one daughter, Mrs. Ur. S. Jordau1 both of Davie coun ty, and a number of grandchildren.

A feature .of Erupp’s works at Es sen at the .present time'which struck Walter Meakiu, writing in the London Daily News, is' the scropplng of the huge extra equipment required: for Hfndenburg’s munition program, which raised the number of employees from 42,000 to 115,000. The whole of the works, with noJess then 500 acres, or nearly a square mil®, ■of-covered floor space.' was-euncentmt- ed entirely on production for the war, when, at jhe sigqiug'-of- the armistice, the vast organization of labor for de structive purposes suddenly collapsed. The socim portents in the Ruhr were sinister. - Revolution was.In the blood of the workers, and no one could fore cast the development' of the upheaval. Partly as . a . precautionary ' measure, partly to hurry on the task of. adapt ing the works to new conditions, the staff was reduced to the 42,000 prewar strength within a month of the ar mistice. The additional workers, -in cluding all the women, were paid four weeks’ wages and sent to their homes throughout Germany. • The position at this time was, ex plained by -one of the chief officials. “Although before the war,” he said, “we manufactured other, things, rail way and shipping material, motor car parts, high-grnde tool steels and so on. the production of gains, munitions and wnr vessels was the mainstajP of the works. All that was Irrevocably end ed.” Tn the Intervening two years the task of converting the arsenal to peace production has proceeded unceasingly, and still goes on. Nowhere else, in a self-contained works, has the process of. turning swords into plowshares been carried out on so vast a scale. . Titanic Transformation. Spectacle. . Under the supervision of the allied control commission the whole of the new shell and gun equipment In the mammoth 'buildings of the Hindenburg program has been made useless and thrown to the Scrap heap. The 'most complete and spectacular transforma tion has taken place in one of these buildings. Within twelve months It was re-equipped with machinery for the mass production of locomotive goods and engines for the state rail ways.' From a balcony one lepks down! im mense avenues of roaring ,machinery, and the whole scene, with hundreds of workmen busy at forge or lathe, or crowded about the* assembling stands, is" one of titanic enterprise: From, the bays on the side come the plates and other heavy parts. From the other side flows a stream of machined parts, and in a wide central bay they come together at thirtyjfive assembling stands. The norma! rate of production with each engine and tender on the stand for nineteen days, would give, roughly, a daily output of one completed-engine,' but while the artisans are underfed and domestic troubles foster political discontent normal work is impossible. NeverOieless this engine'shop present ed the most tmp(re'ssive picture of . in dustrial activity" seen'In Germany. Make Costly. Experiments. In the famous cannon halls of pre- vious.years and in other parts of the works elaborate and costly experiments in the manufacture of textile and.agri cultural machinery, tractors and- motor vehicles are being carried out; in the belief that the home market, which has been almost- monopolized by Amerira in the past, can be supplied by mass production methods. This intense reorganization effort is only possible to a firm "with a prewar capital of $60,000,000, and enormous re serves built Ijp during the war. No dividend is being taken by the fonr or flve holders of the capltai. Thousands "of.raid employees, for whom there Is llttie work, are kept on at full wages. “Al! the resources are being staked in. the-attem pt to carry the concern through - the uncertain years which lie . immediately ahead. “if we' go' slack uow," the officials say “there must be a crash. It may not be possible to avert it ultimately.

San Francisco.—rtShe swept the men of her choice off their feet—courted them so persistently that they could not- escape.” That’s ,the way V. H. Qrmsbyi a dep uty- sheriff of Twin Fails, Idaho, de scribes the - romance of-M rs. Lydia Southard, under arrest at Honolulu on a charge of murdering Ed Meyera of Twin Falls, her fourth husband. Mrs. Southard denies the charge® and says she can satisfactorily ex plain the deaths of her former hus bands. She told officials she believed she was a “typhoid carrier,” and that this may have been responsible for some.of them. “Take poor Ed Meyers, for ex ample,” says Debuty--Sheriff Ormsby. “He was the woman’s'fourth husband: In 1920 he was running a little ranch out near Twin Falls, when Lydla came home after Harlem Lewis, husband No. 3, had dlOd in Montana and she had collected $5,000 In Insurance. ; :.“She rigged herself out to kill, bought a long mink coat and a closed car. Everybody in town was talking about the way she ran around to dances, , * “She courted Ed right off his feet. “Weil, in Atfgust she and Ed were married after he took, out a $10,000 in surance policy. .-In September -Ed died. ■-. : . . . . “The townsfolk-Weren’t Just satis fied.

She Didn’t Worry.' “But Lydia didn't seem to be worry ing. ; After' Lydia left ■ Twin Falls late In 1920 she met Southard, a petty of ficer on the TJ. S. S. Chicago at a dance. Later they were married, and when Southard was transferred from San Francisco to Honolulu he took his bride along. He’s still Joyal to bis wife.” The marital experiences- of the one time Missouri Country town girl eclipse even those of fiction. Ten years ago'wblie still in her teens she was living on a farm of her father, William Trqeblood, about- two- miles from EeStesviller Mo. Following the opening of new ,Irri gated' territory In. TddhQr Truebioed moved his family to a sectioh near Twin Falls: Robert Dooley, a school- day sweetheart of Lydia, und his brother, Edward,' followed soon after, and settled near the Trueblood farm. Married to^Dooley. In 1920 Robert Dooley took. Lyitia, then twenty, into Twin Falls one day and the two were' married. Edward went, to live with’ them. One day Edward Dooley became ill. Within a few hours he was-dead. Lydia explained that- he' had .eaten salmon from a can that had stood open for. some time. Lydia and Robert Dooley accompanied^ the .body back to Eeytesville for burial and-folks .in 'tlie -home town got-their first glimpse of baby Laura Marie, daughter of Lydia.' About -three weeks after Lydia hnd her husband''returned to Twin ,Falls, Robert Dooley died.

June, 1919 Lydia married Har lem Lewis, an automobile salesman, with whom she had become acquaint ed In. Montana. One month later, on July 6. Lewis died from what doctors said was ptomaine poisoning, and Lydla collected $5,000 in insurance. ,Following the death of Lewis, Lydia returned to Tvrtn Falls, where she met end married Myers, husband No. 4.

The car drew up at the station, and he strolled ..with her to the 'plat form. Then the train came in,' and lie put her into a carriage.

But it was only for a second, and then It was gone. -. . . He peered at his watch: It was just ten o’clock. The trees were creaking gently In the faint wind; all around him the strange night noises—noises which play, pranks with a man’s nerves—were whispering and mutter ing. Bushes seemed suddenly to come to life, and move;- eerie shapes crawled Overy the ground toward him—Itgures which existed only 1 In Ids imagination. And once again the thrill of th e . night stalker gripped him. ■ He remembered the German who had lain motionless for an hour in a little gully by Hebuterne. while he from behind a stunted bush had tried to locate him. And then that one creak as the Boche had moved his leg. And. then . . . the end. On . that night, top. - the little hummocks had .moved and ■ taken to themselves strange shapes: fifty times .he had Imagined he saw Iiim t fifty times he knew he was wrong—In. time.

N Peter’s voice came first: ., “You priceless o ld ' ass, -you’ve rammed the blinking gate.”. It w as'Jerry'Seym our wlio"then took, up the bawl. His Voice' was ,in tensely solemn—also extremely loud. “Preposhterous. Perfectly preposh- terous. We must gO.gnd apologize to the owner. . . . I . . . I . . absholutely. musht apologize. . . . Quite unpardonable. . . . You can’t • go about country . . . knocking down gates. . . . Out of queshtion. ...” Half-consciously Hugh listened, but, now that the. moment for action had come, every faculty was concentrated on bis own job. He saw half a dozen men go rushing out Into the garden through a side door;1 and then1 two more ran out and came straight toward him. They crashed past -him and went on into the darkness, and for an In stant he wondered- what they were doing. A little later he was destined to find ouL . . . Then came a peal at the front-door bell, and he determined to wait no longer. He darted through jthe gar den door, to find a flight of stairs in front of him, and in another moment he was on the first floor., He walked rapidly Jtlong tile landing, trying to find Ills bearings, and, turning a corner, he found himself at the top. of the main staircase—the spot where he had fought Peterson two nights 'previous- Ay. He walked quickly on to the rSbm which he calculated was the oiie where he had seen the shadow on the blind. Without a second’s hesitation he flung the door open and walked In. There lying In. the bed, was the - American, while crouched heslde him, with a re volver in his hand, was a man. . . . FOr a few seconds they watched one another In silence, and then the man straightened up. , ' ’The soldier!” he snarled. “Yon young pup!” Deliberately, aimost -casually, he raised his revolver, and then the un expected happened. A jet of liquid ammonia struck him full In the face, and- with a short laugh Hugh dropped h is. water-pistol in his pocket, and turned his. attention to the bed. Wrap ping the millionaire in a blanket, he picked him up, and,, paying u p more attention to the man' gasping.and chok ing. In u corner, he raced for the bnck stairs.” ‘Below he could heat'Jerry, hiccough ing gently, and explaining to . the pro . .. . pro . . . pritor that he per- shonally would repair '. . . Insnisteri on repairing . .. .. any and every Imte-posht he posshessed. . . . And then he reached the garden. . . . Everything had fallen out exactly as he had hoped, but had hardly dared to expect.. He heard Peterson's voice, calm and suave as usual, answering Jerry. From-the garden In front came the dreadful sound of a duet by Algy and Peter. Not a_s.oul was in sight; the back of the house wits clear. All that he bad .to do was Jo walk quietly through the\ wicket-gate to The LarcHes with bis semi-conscious bur den. get to his car, and drive off. It 'all seemed so easy flint he laughed... . ' But there were oue..or two factors that he had forgotten, and the first and most important, one was the man upstairs. The window was thrown up suddenly, pnd the man leanedJiut wav ing his arms. He was still gasping with the strengtii of the ammonia, but Hugh saw him clearly In the light from the room behind. And as he cursed himself for a fool In’ not having tied him up, from VtTie trees, close by there cnme the sharp clang of metal. With a quick catcfi ln his breath he began to run. The two meii who had rushed past him before he had entered, the house, and whom, save for a pass ing thought, he had disregarded, had .become the prindpnt danger. For he had beard that clang before; he- re membered . Jem Smith’s white horror- struck face, and then his sigh of re lief as the thing—whatever It was— was shut tn Its cage. And now it was out. dodging through the1 trees, let loose Iftr the two men. , He heard some thing crash into a hush on his right, and give a snarl:of anger. Like a flash ne swerved Into the. undergrowth on the left. . , ~ - Then began a dreadful game. He was still some 'way . from the fence, and he war. hampered at every step hy the man slung over his hack. He could hear the thing blundering about searching for him, and sudden ly, with a cold feeling of. fear, he realized that the animal was In front of him—that his way to the gate was barred. The next moment he saw i t . . . Shadowy, indistinct, in the darkness, he saw something glide between two bushes. Then it came out into the' open, and he knew it bad seen- him. though as yet he could aot make' out wjtat it was. • Cautiously be lowered the million aire to .the ground, and took a step forward.1 It was enough; with a snarl Of fury the crouching form rose and NnumMed toward him. Two hairy area shot out toward his throat, he smelt the brute’s foetid breath, hot and loath some, and be realized what he was up agalnsh It was a partially grown gorilla. : ~ For a full mlnnte they"'fought ,In silence, save for. the hoarse grunts of the animal' as -it tried to -tear'away the’ man’s hand from its throat, and th en 'encifcle'him with Ite 1Powmful arms. And. with hls bralnr'cold as ice Hugh saw his danger and kept his head. It couldn’t go on; no human being could, last the pace, whatever bis- strengtii. And . there was only, one chance of finishing It quickly, the pos sibility that the grip taught hiin by Olakl would serve with a monkey as'lt did-with a man. - He shifted his left thumb an inch or two on the brute’s throat, and the baboon, thinking he -was - weakening, redoubled Its efforts. Anrt -theil. little by little, -the fingers; moved, and. the grip which Itad been tight before, grew tighter' still. . Back went its head; something wasl snapping, in its neck. With a scream of fear and rage it wrapped its legs round Drummond, squeezing Bnd writhing. And then sud denly there W as a tearing snap, and tlje great limbs - relaxed and grew limp. For a moment the man stood-.watch- Ing the still quivering brute lying1 at his Teet; then, with a gasp of utter exhaustion, he dropped on the ground himself. He was done—utterly cooked; even Peterson’s voice Close behind scarcely roused him. “Quite one of the most amusing en tertainments I've seen for a long time.” The calm, expressionless voice made him look up wearily, and he saw that he was surrounded by men. - The in evitable cigar glowed red In the ,dark ness, and after a moment br two he scrambled unsteadily to his feet “I’d forgotten your d—d menagerie, I must frankly confess,” he remarked. “What’s the party for?” He glanced at the men who had closed in round him. “A guard’ of honor, my young friend,” said Peterson suavely, “to lead you to the house. I wouldn’t hesitate ., . . it’s very foolish. Your friends have gone, and, strong as'you are, I don’t think you can ‘manage ten.” Hugh 'commenced to stroll toward the house. “Well, don’t leave the wretched Potts lying about I dropped him over there.” CHAPTER VII. In Which He Spends an Hour or Tiwo on a Roof. ONE. Drummond paused for a moment at the door of the sitting room, then with a slight,shrug he stepped pgst Peter son. During the last few days he had grown to look on this particular room as the private den of the principals of the gang. He associated jt In his mind with Peterson himself,'suave, lmpam siye, ruthless; with the girl Irma, per fectly-gowned, lying on thg sofa, smok ing Innumerable cigarettes, and mani curing her already faultless nails; and In a lesser degree, with Henry Laktng- ton’s thin, cruel face?and blue, staring eyes. t , ' ' But tonight 'a different scene con fronted him. The girl was not there; her accustomed plnce on the sofa was occupied by an unkempt-looklng man with a ragged beard. At the end of the. table was a vacant chair, on the right of which sat Laklngton regard ing him with malevolent fury. Along the table on each side there were half a dozen men. and he glanced at their -faces. Some were obviously foreign ers; some ipight have been .anything from murderers to Sunday school teachers. There was one with spec tacles and the general appearance of an Intimidated rnbblt, while his neigh- bor. helped by a large red scar right across his cheek, and two bloodshot eyes, struck Hugh as being the sort of roan with whom one would not share a luncheon basket. Peterson’s voice from just behind his shoulder roused him. “Pernfit tue. gentlemen, to Introduce to you Captain Drummond, D. S. O..

I was ac tually so nervous that any sudden noise or excitement would produce a palpitation of my heart that fright ened me.'

ANCIENT AND MODERN ROME Worlif-Famous Buildings Occupy Sacred Sites in the Old “Capital of the World.’’ Ancient Rome was built on the hills south of the River Tiber. Tradition regarded the Palatine as the site of Romulus’ Urbs Quadrata. Excavations have brought to light remains of. earlier settlement and a pre-hlstoric necropolis. The capltoline was -the center of republican and imperial Rome. . One of the. principal ancierft monuments Is Hadrian’s mausoleum, which, as the castle of SL Angelo, was the citadel of medieval Riome'. West of this stood Caligula’s circus, in wjtich Nero tortured the Christians; its site is now occupied by St. Peter’s, the chief shrine of Roman Catholicism,/ reputed to be the largest church In the world, occupying 18,000 square yards and measuring 433 feet in its highest p art North of St. Peter's is the Vatican palace, which covers 13% acres and comprises over 1,000 halls, chapels ahd rooms. The pantheon, built by Agrip- pa In 27 B. C. and restored by Hadrian, Is said to be the best-preserved ancient building in the city.

Must Return Block's Car. Miami, Fla.—Return to Harry St. Francis Black, New York millionaire, of his private Pullman car, seized'in Miami last March, when over 400 quarts of intoxicating liquor wore found aboard it by federal and state officers, was ordered by the trial court. Washington. — America considers absolutely valid , her title to the Ger man ships seized in American ports about the time of the outbreak of war with Germany. Dispatches from abroad, stating that the reparation commission would examine whether the ships should be turned over to . that commission as a portion of German assetB, failed to dis turb the equanimity of official opinion on the subject. No claim has as yet been made for the ships, but if it should be presented, the United States government will take the position that title .to the ships was obtained by President Wilson after the pas sage of a special act of congress au thorizing him to seize the; ships. So far as domestic law is concerned, our government’s rights' to the ships is unquestioned. As for a German claim for the return of those shipB, the American government finds nothing in the Versailles treaty which permits Germany to make such a claim as the’’ Berlin government gave away all her rights to the'ships in that treaty. Secretary Hughes will instruct the American representative on the repa rations commission to express the American viewpoint if any claim should be made for .the German ships. Washington. — President Harding has taken, his first important step to ward solving the railway problem; He has in effect asked the Interstate Com merce Commission to reduce freight rates. He didn't do so directly.—he managed the thing very tactfully and diplomatically. For a President isn't suppossed to ask the Interstate' Com merce Commission, which is a ques- judigial body, to render any decisions. I Woodrow Wilson had some informal conferences once with members of the Interstatq Commerce Commission and was severely criticised for trying to influence the commission to revise rates. President Harding adopted artmuch more direct course-.and even judder course, which unquestionably will es tablish a precedent, and brush aside for. all times the technical criticism that a President can’t communicate with the I. C. C. Mr. Harding walked to the Interstate Commerce Commis sion ‘-building and told, the members that he recognized that' the commis sion is the rate-making agent of con gress and that, inasmuch as he had the official right to communicate to congress any message lie pleased, he therefore felt free to communicate di rectly with the agent of congress.

THE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS MAINTAINS UNAWED BY INFLUENCE AND UNBRIBED BY GAIN.” VOLUMN XXII. MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROEINAi WEDNESDAY, JUNE .15-. «921.NUMBER 49- N I ScbooI Consolidation. ft'r. Editor:—I desire to say a few words with respect to the consolida t e of schools in MocksviIle town ship at this time. I will start out by siying that I favor any and. all measures looking to the real impro vement of our free schools, but like everything else, there is a time for all things, and the question before the people of Mocksville township at this time, is, are we ready and pre pared for this step now? Our people especially the farming element are hard hit and the burdens of taxation are pressing heavily upon them, and should we lay more upon them at a ti tie when the future is anything but bright and promising? Increasing, taxes, raising salaries seems about ali that enters into the mind and thought of certain people. I have before me the last report of the State Superintendent of schools for the school year 1918 1919 showing the a- mount of school funds collected and spent for that school year the latest published. I wish to call the readers attention thereto: There was collect ed and spent for that year $8,789,931- 09 nearly nine millions of dollars; the teachers were paid-for that year 54.795,890.74 a little over four and one half millions, which shows that for the teachers only about 53 cents nut of each dollar is applied out of tie total amount collected for schools This to my mind, shows that there is something radically wrong with our school system, and b 'fore we launch out for greater es - penditures we should try and stop the extravagant leaks, and see if some economies cannot be found to stop the rat holes. Thereifanother matter that should be considered, are the people able to meet the ad ditional expenseat thistime?Ts there not danger in overloading ottrselves especially !when not only our own country, but the entire civilized world is groaning under the load 0 ' excessive tax burdens? If is a fact that no one can question, that we c nnot and are not able-to bear the reccessary tax burden for all the de sirable things we would like to have or that we may think we are com pelled to have . We must advance- stepbystep as our ability to pay increases, and not ov erload ourselves at a time when the best thought of the country is laboring and striving to devise means to reduce-Mtaxation. I know of no process of reducing a burden by increasing its--.weighty possibly some of the advocates -of consolidation can show us how one with a dime can pay a dollar debt,: its beyond my intellectual 'ability. No doubt there are some: , wise men here-abouts who can solve the riddle to their own satisfaction; regardless, of the hardship they place'upon others, Another matter, why .not give us a littie information: as to how much bonds and increased taxes we are going to be called On • to' put op this consolidation? Let's cut CU' some of the gum shoe methods shown m these matters and take a I the pco Ple into your confidence. There is entirely too much of the' dark lantern methods being used-too |j"ieh camouflage to suit those who have to go down in their jeans to ®eet the bills. W estilllive in a country we are proud to proclaim hat is ruled by the people and not by an autocracy of military genuses who ate more intent on the personal spoils coming their way-than of the public 8 . from behind the door and eome out in the open and take coun- Jj of the people, and give them a ance to pass on a question vitally Ict-Ing their pocket books- an I eir ability to meet the mortgage on propose to place upon their pro- IimTy‘ ^ur roads are iQ no condi chiu °Perate t^ucks L0 baul in the to J f r d 1 want you/oneand all; soiu U y prediction»'if this con cro«u n,lS carried '“ mediately the S '* " 1 atonce bounce to a vveal g/ nd exPectant world, that and hf-urCed to ,ssue more bondi invest ' f°ad30r we m lose our If von ln a blg 8ch°o1 building.

The members of the'congregation of a colored holiness church at Goldsboro, N. C. were frightened out of their senses .when the preach er entered the church and right behind appeared a reproduction of the popular conception of the devil as portrayed in pictures. The figure was dressed in red, had a long trail, clawfoot horns on his head and when he .opened his mouth fire is declared to liave come forth. When they raised their heads after prayer, great was the surprise of congregation .-to see the devil seated On the platform. Clothes were torn and great turmoil broke out, it is reported. In a short time only the prqgcher remaining because he had Kurt his leg and couldn’fYun. After a shoif time the devil left.- The negroes- tried to rush it up: because they didn’t want other congregations .of their race to know about it. The white people believe that some man did it to frighten the negroes.—Ex.. Poor Richard On Taxes. . Erom the Philadelphia Record. ‘ What do you think of the times? ■Won’t these heavy taxes quite ruin the country? How shall we ever be able to pay them?” These questions, according to •Poor Richard were addressed to -atf old man b3’crowd discussing econo mic conditions in 1757. Poor Rich ard quotes the old man’s reply: 1Thetaxes are indeed very heavy and if those laid by the government were the only ones we had to pay, we might the more easily discharge them, but we have many otjiers, and much more grevious to some of us. We are taxed twice as- much by idleness, three times as much by .our pride, and tour times as much by.our folly, and from these taxes the commissioners cannot ease or deliever us by an abatement. How ever, let us hearken to gOod advice and something may be done for usv God help them that help themselv es.” Poor Richard’s 'obliquely given advice is as applcable now as it was 164 years ago. The taxes are griev ous, but-they need not ruin the couutryJiFwe take adequate measur es to help ourselves. Idleness pride and folly,stil| have a. deal to do with: the cost of living. TRe Aftermath. Yesterday a young man approach ed me'and claimed he hadn’t had anything to eat for three days, a writer-says in a letter fo the Mil waukee Sentinel. About a year ago the world was drunk with a mad desire to make and spend mon ey. Men were paying $15 for silk shirts to wear at . their work.- Today the world is sobering- up like a drunkard. Some of the boys who werednvesting in-$i5 s,lk shirts last year are today hunting a place in the bread line. ■ This is a big nation and after such a spree as we have been on it mean's time, pati ence and thinking to sober its up and get back to normal.—Ex. / Peculiar.

I Too Much Athletics. , j Atheletic sport appears to be a5 l bout the most important^, thing in- j college life of the average young map today. If he doesn’t go in'for the round of sports he is apt to be termed ;a grubworm and finds himself more or less isolated f rom the companion ship of his fellows. *4 If he -becomes an . enthusiastic sportsman lie is in danger of neg lecting his studies lothedeterimerit of his education and his future. The promotion of athletics is de sirable up a certain point, but the tendency of the day is to ignore that point and go the iiniit, even to the sacrifice of educational profiV ciency in lines- that are necessary in modern'commercial life. This is not an age when young men may- learn to read and write and add arid subtract, and then go out into the-world and: compete for success. ■ Employers are becoming more exacting each day.. They'require something^ more tljan. a footfall or a stroke record from their employees.' The insist upon stability, common sense arid an ability to “produce the-goods.” . There are many noted critics of our higher educational: institutions of today, arid these critics have lit tle confidence in the ability of aver-- age college graduate.-■ -'- When shrewd employed place • a value of Jio a week upon the se'r- vices of young men just out of col lege there would seem to be some thing wrong with the; system ’Under wrich the'se-young men have been trained, Too much athletic may become as detrimental to the individual as none at all. How About It? Big' corporations are. Vociferously demanding a reduction in the price of labor. Theycan not understand why the labor should object to such a reduction—or perhaps they do not understand. A good captain in time -of war does not ask his men to go where he is not willing to lead. That would be cowardice and poor judg ment, and neither would last long in the army. The cheif officials are the captains, of industry. Craftsmen and laborers are the under-officers and men. Captains of industry, should emulate the captains of the army. They should learn to lead instead of drive. Americans will follow a good leader, but they object.to being driv en like sheep. When the captains of industry begin the downward trend by reducing their own salaries in pro portion to the reduction demanded from their: men there will be less ob jection voiced by,labor. But this they will -not/-do./ Their personal greed prevents. They -are poor cap tains — short sighted — deficient in judgement—very foolish.—Ex. The Whole. Works. A traveling salesman, according to an easter exchange,_yisite<T a small town and sold the proprietor of its general store some merchandise. When the goods arrived they were not’ as represent and; the - merchant consequently returned them. The house attempted, to. collect the bill and drew a sight draft on the mer chant through the local bank, which returned the draft unhcnored, The house wrote the postmaster : about the financial standing of the merch ant and tne postmaster laconically replied with an o- k ... By return mail the house request ed the postmaster to secure a lawyer to collect the amount and received the following-reply: - , - ."The undersigned is the merchant of whom you.attempted to palm off your worthless goods. The under signed is the president and owner of the bank to which you sent your sight draft.* The undersigned is the post master to*whom you;wrote and the undersigned; is thelawver whose ser vices you sought to .obtain - for, your-, infarioDs -business. - If the under signed were not also the preacher of the church at this'place, he would tell you to go to hell,SL Too Miicb Leadership. ‘lit isn't so much money that’s wanted as leadership!” • The words in quotation are from the Greenville,. S.- C., News. The News bewails the - lack of leaders and goes on to show what wonder ful things could be done if there were leaders to guide in the work. Maybe so, but the thought bobs up that the trouble with the coun try is that there, are so many folks who have been led. Many a poor devil is hard up against it right now because he was led off of the path of thrift and - into thebrambles of financial ruin just because he tried to follow some fellow who in the days of prosperity was hitting the earth' in high places and playing the tool as he went. Leaders!' Why, we have them to spare. They come in the name of religion, politics, uplift, this^. fhat and the other- organization,: cult or ism. You connot throw a pan of water out doors without spattering half a dozen or more leaders, some of ’em wild-eyed and with lights turned so high that they smoke. Leaders! The self-appointed kind the “wire-pulled’.’ kind, and the kind that God .only knows how they ever got to be leaders, you find ’em everywhere, except where this real-honest-to-godness work to be done. "■ Too many would-be leaders and not enough down to the job trying to' make an honest living and giving full value for- what is received, that's the trouble. Ti ,:. . Did you ever stop to think about the vast number.of leaders those of us who work at our jobs, days in and days out, support? On every train there is a whole bunch of leaders going here and yonder. Go into a hotel lobby and there at the desk is some well-dress ed “leader.” iusomem-o v-e m-e-n-t calling for the best room with bath. Walking out of the dinifig room is a well fed ‘ ‘leader’ ’ and behind him are two more of his kind besides a leaders” or two. Allthese lead ers are paid, their expenses are.paid and there entire upkeep is paid by the men and women who toil. No, we do not' need more leaders. We do need more men and women who positively refuse to be led, think their own thoughts . and fly with their own wings, who have got- grit and backbone enough to tell the would-be where to get off.. The universal prayer-should not be for leaders but for those who will: not be led.—Monroe Enquirer. Oh, Yoii Girls. Girls who habitually chase all the strange boys who blow into town and who continually walk the streets in modern (iirimodest) high society dress, attend alLdances, take joy rides at night and' numerous other things that might be Mentioned may become good wives and useful wom en, but the chances are against it. If some poor working girls should do such things as these and because she is not able to wear .sill: and furs, she is looked down upon and the tongues of the mothers of these high society belles-are kept busy consigning her to perdition and m defaming: her character. It is high time that these mothers see the faults of the’ir- own girls and call on their actions and mmcdest dress before it is-e.versal.t- inglv to late. Too many mothers are intoxicated with the popularity of their daughters and glorying in the fact that Jhey are in high -society. They don’t stop to think of the prieev they are paying for this popularity. —Bill Montgomery. 1 - - A Beautiful Thought. - What- every ' man -knows: A brightunind makes a dull-husband.

Tuberculosis had got in its work to such an extent that nothing could .arrest its ravages. He only lived'aborit seven hours after reach* ing the hospital. The remains were brought back and Monday morning after the funeral services had been conducted by his-pastor Rev. Brown of the M _ E church his body was laid to rest at New Union burial ground almost in sight of where he had spent his young life in the pre sehce of a large crowd of relatives and friends. .His grave was covered with/flowers by loving hands, and all that was mprtal ofxur young friend now sleep beneath the sod free from all care, suffering and pain.

It was broken by the unkempt man on the sofa, Whoj without warning, exploded unexpected ly- “A truce to all this fooling,” he burst forth, in a deep rumble; “I con fess I do not understand it Are we assembled here tonight, comrades, to listen to private quarrels and-stupid talk?” . A murmur of approval came from the others, and the speaker stood up waving his arms. , “I know not what this young man has done: I care less. In Bussia such trifles matter not. He has the appear ance of a bourgeois, therefore he must die. Did we not kill thousands—aye, tens of thousands of his kidney, before we obtained the great" freedom? Are we not going to do the same , in this accursed country? Kill him now— throw him in a corner and let us pro ceed.” He sat down, amidst a murmur of approval, in which Hugh joined heart ily. ' ' “Splendid,” he murmured. “A mag nificent peroration. Am I right, sir, in assuming that you are what ..is vul garly known as a Bolshevist?” ' The rnftn turned, his'sunken eyes, glowing with the burning fires of fanat icism, on Drummond. “I am one of those who are fighting for the freedom of the world,” lie cried harshly, “for the right to live of the proletariat” He flung out his anus wildly. “It is freedom ; it is the dawri of the new age.” Hugh looked at him with - genuine curiosity; it was the first time he had actually, met one of these wild vision aries in the' flesli. And then the. curi osity was succeeded by a'very definite amazement: what had PetersOn to do with such as he? For the moment his own deadly risk wfis forgotten: a growing excitement filled Ws mind. Could it be-possible that here,-at last, was the-rail object of the gang; could it.be possible that Peterson was organizing a deliberate plot, to try and Bolshevize England? He looked up to find Peterson regard ing him with a faint smile. “It is a little difficult, to understand, isn’t It, Captain Drummond?” he- said, carefully flicking the ash off his cigar. "I told you you’d find yourself in deep ■ water.” ’Then he resumed the contem- Plation1Of the papers in front of Aim. Hugh half closed his eyes, while , a general buzz-of conversation broke out round the table. Fragments of conversation struck his egrs from time to time. The intimi-. dated rabbit, with the light of battle' in his watery eye, was declaiming on the glories of workmen’s-councils; a bullet-headed man was shouting an in spiring battle cry about no starvation wages and work for all. “Can it be possible,” thought Hugh, grimly, “that such as these have tlie power to control big. destinies ?” And then, because he had 'some experience of what one unbalanced brain, whose owner could talk, was’ capable of achieving; because he knew something about mob psychology, his half con temptuous amusement changed to a bitter foreboding. “You fool!” he cried suddenly to the Russian; and everyone ceased talk ing, “Yon-poor-d—d-boob! You—and your new earth I In Petrograd today bread is two pounds, four-shillings'' a pound; .tea, fifteen pounds a pound. Do you call that freedom?” He gave a contemptuous laugh. • v Too surprised to speak, the Rus sian sat staring at him; and it was Peterson who broke- the silence , with his suave voice. -. ’ . - “ilour distress, I am glad to say, is’ not likely- to be one of-long dura tion,”; he remarked. “In fact, the time has come for you to retire, for. the night, ’my young friend.” , ,-He stood up smiling; then he walked oyer to the bell behind Hugh and rang it. . '-- ; ' ■ ■ “ “Dead dr mad—I wonder which.” He threw] the end of hfs cigar into the grate as Hugh rose. “While we deliberate-’down here'on various mat-. ters of importance we shall be think ing of you upstairs-r-that is to say, Jf1 you get there. -1 see that Lakington is even now beginning to glOat .in pleasant anticipation” -. Not a . muscle on the soldier’s face twitched; not by the hint of a-look, did he show the keenly watching au dience that he realized bis danger. Lakington’s face was merciless, with its fiendish look of anticipation,; and Hugh stared at him with level eyes' for a while before he turned toward the door. “Then I will say ‘Good night,’” he remarked casually, “Is it the same room that I had last rime?” . “No," said Peterson. “A different one—specially prepared, for you. If you get to the top of the stairs a man ill He Opened the Door.and Stood There Smiling. will show. you. where it is.” He Opened, th# - door and stood there smiling. And' at that moment all the'lights went out. TWO. The darkness could be felt, as real darkness- inside a. hOuse always can be felt. Not the faintest glimmer even of greyness showed anywhere, and Hugh remained motionless, won dering what the next move was going to be. Now that the night’s ordeal had commenced, nil his perve had re turned to him. .,He felt ice-cold; and as his - powerful hands clenched and unclenched by his sides, he grinned’ faintly to himself. Then very' cau tiously he commenced to feel his way toward the door. At that moment someone brushed past him. Like a flash Hugh’s hand, shot out and gripped him by the arm. The man .wriggled and twisted, but he was powerless as a child,- and with another short laugh Hugh found his throat with his other hand. And again silence settled on the room . . . Still holding the unknown man in front of him, he reached tlie'foot of the stairs, and there he paused. He had suddenly remembered the mys terious things which had whizzed past his head that other night, and then clanged suddenly into the wall beside him.. He had.gone up five stairs when it had happened, and now with his foot .on the yfirst, he started to dp some ,rapid thinking. ' If, as Deterson had ■ kindly assured him, they proposed to try and send him mad,'it was unlikely that they would kill him on the . stairs. ‘At the same'time it was obviously an imple ment’ capable. of accurate adjustment, and therefore it was more than likely that-they would use it to frighten him. And if they did;—if they did . . . The unknown man wriggled feebly in his .hands, and a sudden, unholy look came on to Htigh’s face.. “It’s the only possible chance,” he said to himself, “and if It’s you or me, laddie,' I guess it’s got to be you.” With a quick hgave he jerked the man ’off. his feet, and lifted him up till his head was above the level of his own. Then clutching him tight,- he commenced to climb. His own head was bent down, somewhere In the region of the man’s- back, , and he took no notice of the feebly kick-r ing legs. . L-.:- Then at last-he reached the; fourth step, and gave a final adjustment- to hfs semi-TCphscious burden. Herpressed his head -even lower In Oie man’s back; and lifted him up another three inches. : “How awfully-jolly!” ,he murmured. “I hope the result will please you.” “I'd stand, quite still If I were ybuil' said Feterson suavely.,. “‘Just listen.” As Hugh had gambled on, the per formance] was designed - to - frighten. Instead: of Ihat,; .something' Hit;; the neck of the ,man He was holding .with such force that it wrenched him Clean out of his arms. Then came-the clang beside" him, and, with a .rseries' of ominous thuds a ■ body rolled down the stairs into the- hall below. “YOU fool.”- ' He heard Lakington’s voice; ■ shrill with anger. ..“ You’ve killed him .. Switch on the light . . - But before the order could be car ried out Hugh had disappeared, like a great cat; into the darkness “of the passage aboveC As luck would have it the first room he darted into" was empty, .and he flung up the window and peered' out. ‘ A faint, watery moon showed him a twenty-foot' drop onto the -grass, and without hesitation he flung his legs over the sill. - And at that “mo ment something prompted him to'Iopk upward. - It was a dormer window, and to an active man access to the roof was easy. YVlthopt an instant’s hesitation he abandoned all thoughts-of retreat; and when two excited men rushed in to the room he was firmly ensconced, with his legs astride of the ridge of the window,”'not a yard from their beads. . Securely hidden in the shadow; he watched the subsequent proceedings with genial toleration. A raucous bel low from the two men announced that they had discovered his line of escape; and, in half a minute the garden was full of hurrying figures. One, calm and impassive, bis identity betrayed only by the-inevitable cigar, stood by the garden door,, apparently taking no part in the game; Laking ton, blind with fury, was ' running round in small circles, cursing every one' • impartially. ' ' “The car is still there.” A man came up to Peterson, and Hugh heard the words distinctly. ■ “Then he’s probably over .at Ben ton’s house. -I will go and see.” - Hugh .watched-the thick-set, mas sive figure stroll down toward the wicket gate, and’ he laughed gently to himself.. Then he 'grew serious again, and with a slight , frown he palled out his watch and peered at it. Half-past one .. . . two more hours before dawn. . And In those' two hours he wanted to explore the house from on top; especially he wanted to have a look at the mysterious central room of which Phyllis had spoken to him— tlie room where Lakington kept his treasures. But until the . excited throng below went indoors, it was unsafe to move, Once out of the shadow, any one would be able to see him crawling over the roof in the moonlight. At times the thought of the help less man for whose death he had in one way been responsible recurred to him, but he shook his head angrily. It had been necessary, he realized: you can carry someone upstairs In a normal house without ,him having his neck broken—but still . . . And then he wondered who'he was. It had been one -of the men who sat round the-table—of that he was toler ably certain. Bjit which . . . ? WaS it the frightened buhny, or the Rus-- Sian, or the gentleman with the blood shot eye?. The only comfort was that whoever it had been, the world would not be appreciably the poorer for his sndden decease. The only regret was that- it hadn’t, been dear Henry. . . -. He had a distate for Henry which far exceeded his dislike of Peterson. “He’s not over Jhere,” Peterson’s voice came to him from below. “And we’ve wasted time enough as it Is.” The men had gathered together In a group/ just below where Hugh was sitting, evidently awaiting further or ders. “Do you mean to say we’ve lost the young swine again?” said' Lakington angrily. ; “Not lost—merely mislaid,” mur mured Peterson. “The. more I see of him the more do I admire his initia tive.” Lakington snorted. “It' was that d—d fool Ivolsky1S own fault,” he snarled; “why didn’t he. keep still' as he was told to do?” “Why, indeed,” returned Peterson, his.cigar glowing' red.- ' “And I’m’ afraid we shall never know. He is very. dead." He turned toward the house. “That concludes the enter tainment,] gentlemen, for tonight. I think you can ail go to bed;” . He disappeared into the house, and the others' followed slowly. For the time being Hugh was safe, and with a sigh of relief he stretched his cramped limbs and lay back against the sloping roof. If only he had dared to light a cigarette. . THREE. , It was half an,hour' before.Drum mond decided that it was-safe to start exploring, f First he took off his shoes, and tying the laces together, he slung them around his neck. Then, as-si lently as he could, -he commenced to scramble upward, It was not an easy operation; one slip and nothing could have stopped- him sliding down and finally crash ing into the garden • below, with a broken leg, at the very least,-for his pains. In: addition, there was the risk' of dislodging a slate, an unwise proceeding In a house where most of the occupants slept with one eye open. But at last ,he" got his hands-over the -ridge of’the roof,, and-In another mo ment he . was ^sitting' straddlewise across it. ]-A sudden-rattle close .to him made him start violently; only to curse him self for a. nervous ass the next, mo ment, and lean forward eagerly. One of the blinds had been’.released-from Inside the room, and a pale, diffused light came filtering out into the night from the slde of the glass roof. He was still craning backward and for ward to try and - find some : chink through ] which he could see, 1 when, with a kind of uncanny deliberation; one of the panes of glass slowly opened,- It was worked on a ratchet from inside, and ! Hugh bowed his thanks to the. uhseen operator below. Then he leant forward cautiously, and peered In. . .'. • The whole room was-visible to him, and his jaw tightened as he took in the scene. In an armchair, smoking as unconcernedly.as ever, sat Peter son. He was reading a letter; .and occasionally underlining some point with a pencil. Beside him on a table; was a big ledger, and every now and then he_would turn over a few' pages and make an entry. But it was not Peterson on whom the watcher above was concentrating his attention; if was Lakington,. ta.klng a red .velvet' box out of a drawer in the desk.' He opened ft lovingly, and Hugh saw the flash of diamonds. Lakington let the stones run through his hands, glitter ing with-a thousand flames, while Pe terson watched him contemptuously. “Baubles,” he said, scornfully. “Pretty baubles. YVbat will you get for them?”, . “Ten, "perhaps fifteen, thousand,” re turned the other, “But it’s not the money I care about; it’s the delight In having them, and the skill required to get them.” Peterson shrugged his shoulders.' “Skill which would give you hun dreds of thousands if you turned It into pfoper channels”., Lakington replaced the stones, and threw the end of his cigarette into the grate. 'Possibly, Carl, quite possibly. But it boils down to this, my friend, mat you like the big canvas with broad effects; I like the miniature and the well-drawn. etching.” 1YVhIch makes us a very happy com bination,” said Peterson. “The pearls, don’t forget, are your- job. The big thing”—he turned to the other, and a trace of excitement came into his voice—“the big thing is mine.” The sound of the door opening made both men swing round instantly; then Peterson stepped forward with a smile as Irma entered. 'Back, my dear. I hardly expected yon so sooh.” In a few words he told the girl what had happened, and she clapped her hands together delightedly. “Assuredly I shall have to marry that man,” she cried. “He. is quite the least boring individual I have met in this atrocious country.” She. sat down and lit a cigarette. “I saw Wal ter tonight. He came over especially to see you. They want .you there for a meeting, at the Rite.” Peterson frowned. “It’s most inconvenient," he re marked with a shade, of annoyance in his voice. “Did he say why?” “Among other things I 'think they’re nnaasy about the American,” she an swered. - “My dear man, you can easi ly slip over for a day.” “Of course. I can,” said Peterson irritably; “but that doesn't alter the fact that it’s inconvenient. Things will be shortly ."coming to a bead here, and I want to be on the spot. How ever—” He started to walk up and down the room, frowning thoughtfully. “Your fish is hooked, mon ami,” continued the girl to' Laklngt.on. “He has already proposed three times; and he has introduced me tq. a dread ful-looking woman of extreme Virtue, who has adopted me as her niece for the.great occasion.” “What great occasion?” asked Lak ington. “Why, his coming of age,” cried the girl. “I am to go to Laidley Towers "os, an honored guest of the duchess of* Lampshire.” She threw back her head and laughed. “YVhat ao you & “Because Dear Freddie Has Told Me So," Answered the Girl. think of that, my friend? The old lady will be wearing pearls .and all complete, in honor of the great day, and I shall be one .of the admiring house party.” . - “How do you know, sh,e’ll have them in the house?” said Lakington. ] -.“Because dear Freddie has told me so,” answered the girl. She blew two smoke rings and then laughed. / “Freddie is really rather a deaf at times. I don’t think I’ve ever met any one who is so nearly an i'diOf without being One. Still,” she; n pea ted thoughtfully, “he’s rather I. dear.”'. -(TO BE.CONTINTJED.)

Failure to .Grasp the One Fundamen tal May Cost Mexican Government and Obregon a Great Deal. Washington.—The Mexican situa tion has simply resolved itself into 'a question of time. The United States confidently expects the .Mexican au-. thbrities to come round to' the view point expressed in the proposal for a new treaty of amity and commerce. The Mexicans have begun arguing but eventually they -must accept the pro; posal made or remain outside the fam ily of nations. The Mexican officials whose state ments have been published do . not yet know how firm -is the attitude of Sec retary Hughes. They imagine it is a subject in which there can be endless bickering. But Mr. Hughes insists on <jne fundamental. ,Failing to grasp that fundamental may cost General Obregon a good deal. The fundamen tal is simply that the Mexican consti tution is or is not .satisfactory. If it isn’t, then a treaty should be negotiat ed. to prove the point. If the Mexi cans persist in refusing to interpret or change their constitution so as to re move all doubt about confiscation of foreign property lawfully acquired, then recognition'will not be extended.

In the Fifteenth century the waist line, -was discovered, and the pointed idea carried to extreme, says the New York Herald. The women wore tall pointed hats, pointed shoes, and points were- introduced In every possible way. At this time the church was strongly Iii the- ascendant and the. models of the Madonna served as the inspiration for their costumes. > As these little models were carved from ivory tusks, the women followed the sacred model, and the curve of the tusk was also copied in their carriage, giving a sim ilar tilt to tbe figure, recently called the debutante slouch. : The Sixteenth' century brought in corsets, the lengthened waistline >and the introduction of the full skirt. It was in this period tliat Catherine de Medici brought in collars^ and lace*was used in women’s costumes for the first time; In the Seventeenth century, known as the romantic'-period, the styles became very frivolous.

AVhen the prairie regions pf the Mid dle West.were first developed the lack, of trees was severely felt.

Windbreaks were, the only rem edy and thousands of. miles of them, were planted along roads apd farm di vision lines.

One of them is a; ne cessity In the wardrobe, made pf a soft wool materiar'ancixdesigned -to make' itself generally useful, it is equal to many demands and much wear, and In addition to these , sturdy qual ities, it has graceful* lines and elegance to recommend it. Like .nearly all this !season's wraps, .It bears a: strong re semblance to a cape—in' fact,- is a cape, having capelike sleeves set on,, extended into points at the'back that merge into tlie body of the garment. The collar is really another small cape. The collar and sleeves are decorated with embroidered motifs and the wrap is rich enough in appearance to hold its own In the company of such deb- on.aire 'comrades as the one pictured with It.' Paris, presents the ilovely ’ wrap for eyenfngwear which appears at the right of the two pictured. It is made of taffeta silk in vivid orange color and trimmed with ostrich: tips in a deeper orange. The frock worn with it is of white taffeta, with a wide scal loped hem and it proclaims Its kinship to the brilliant wrap by : wearing its color In a ,sash of orange velvet of the same shade as the ostrich feather trim- mlrig. , ‘ V Bvening dresses of chiffon taffeta with capes to match are among the alluring new arrivals.’., They are the last word in beautiful colors, with bouffant skirts In the;new length and voluminous capes that nearly cover them. The capes are lined with chif fon, usually In a contrastlng;color,-:and there Is a gleam of this color-through the thin silk, as Ixi a cape of .light bine •with pale orange for the lining. Very fine plaitings of the silk are used In bands for trimming and In collars that have the appearance' of a full .ruche about the throat. These gay trappings are worn with-hose and slippers to match them :In color. They - have no responsibilities other than to clothe beauty most beautifully. Tsnlac Elements Come Frnm .

Collections In cash totaling $25,103,- 424.64 have" been made for general causes fostered by the Baptist’ 75 Mil- V lion Campaign since the campaign was launched in 1919, according to a report to the Southern Baptist Con vention, which has just adjourned its Chattanooge session, by D f- L. R. Scarborough, general director of the campaign, 'and chairman of the Con servation Commission. The fact that $12,924,943.60 of this amount was col lected during the past year, under the most depressing conditions known in years, is very encouraging to. the de nominational leaders, they say. V$jll Seek the Unsaved. Feeling the need of conserving the spiritual interests of the . people as well as the financial aspects of the campaign, the convention asked the Conservation Commission to seek to enlist, through the state and associa- tional organizations, all the 27,000 lo cal Baptist churches in $he South in a larger evangelistic effort Juring the next twelve months, the aim being to induce as many individual members of the churches as' possible to win at least one soul to;Christ during the new year. Reports to the convention showed that there were 173,595- persons received into the local Baptist churches by bap tism during the past year, and much larger number will he sought during the year ahead. Would Evangelize Europe. One of the interesting actions of the convention was the decision to back up fully the Foreign Mission Board in Its program for the evangelization of the new European territory of- Spain, Jugoslavia,- Hungary, Roumania, the Ukraine and Southern Russia. Dr. J. H. Rushbrooke, of London, Baptist Commissioner for Europe, addressed the.convention, telling how he had dis tributed the relief. funds contributed, by Baptists for the needy families of those . countries and how the giving of thfe relief had opened- wide the door of missionary opportunity.

Campaign in Davie. : Would it not appeal to the moth ers and fathers of Davie county if their children between six months and six years of age would come to them and say; Papa we want you and mama to save us from as much sickness as you can because we are young ,and don’t know how to prevent diseases. W ewantyouand mama to keep yourselves well, too for without you how would we get along? We would have no clothes or shoes, toys on candy. We would be little orphans. “Protect our lives from diph- ihria, protect yours from typhoid fever.’’ The free dispensaries which- wiil begin in Daviecountyon June-? ist. to continue for frour weeks, are made possible by an arrangement between the county commissioners and the State Board of Health. As the protection against these diseases are made available to ever person in the county, the responsibility of sickness or death from them is put up to the individual and to the fathers and mothers of the children. Central points have been selected in every section, so that each per son, regardless of age, race, sex, or financial conditions will be .able to get what the State and county offer to him without direct cost. Dr. Geo. N. Thomas asks this paper to agaiu emphasize the fact that each treatment is harmless, causes no sores, aud-very little in couvience, but will prevent sickness and death from typhoid and diph theria. Thus it may save you, not only your life but much money. In North Carolina in the past few years, more than thrtee million doses of typhoid treatment have been ad ministered throught co-operation with the North Carolina State Board of. Health and no -ill effects have been recorded. While toxin- antitoxin, which is used to prevent diphtheria, has not been used so extensively because it was the last General Assembly that made it pos sible for the North Carolina State Board of Health to offer toxin-an- titoxin treatment on the same bosis that it has been offering the typhoid treatment. Below is given a complete list of the places, the days and the hours so that you may suit your conven ience about which dispensay points you will attend. Dr. Thomas asks that every one carefully bear in mind these dates, and that you make a personal men tion of this work to your friends. Each one who desires the treatment should meet the doctor promptly and make sure to come three out of the four times. TUESDAYS June 21, 28, July 5] *2.

Wednesday. June 8th was the oc casion of a.home coming and birth day dinner at the hospitable home of Mrs. Susannah Williams, who lives two and half rriiles from Advance. For several years these dinners have been given, and have become some thing of an annuel event, taking on the nature of a reunion of kinsmen and neighbors. Thisyear 32 parti cipated in the reunion, and enjoyed the sumptious dinner spread, there being 4 children. 19 grand children, ar.d 6 great-great grandchildren.' The estables were abundant, and delicious, such as the house wives of this section know so well how to pre pare fried chicken, baked chicken, chicken pie, peis eake3. pickles, with other vegetables and meats brought thither in huge baskets for the oc casion, and presented a feast fit for royalty After dinner, the young naturally drifted together, to frolic, and dream of the future, leaving the older ones to talk and ruminate of the things of other years and to call fond memories associated with their kith and kind, who were no longer present in body but who came in spirit, and held blessed communion with the living. “Grandma” Williams is 78 years old and is very active for one of her years. She is the only surviving child of Sammuel and Sallie Bailey, her brother W. A. Bailey, and sister, Mrs. Alf Caton, having died 3 eai s ago: She comes from a race of in dustrious people who have-taken a conspicious part in the building up of this section of the county. May her race increase, and her years of usefulnes be extended for many years to some. * • E. 0 . Si _ ' The Old Hymns. There’s lots of music in ’em—the hymns of long ago, . And when some gray-haired brother sings the ones I used to know I,8orter want to take a hand—I think of the days gone by— On Jordans’ stormy banks I stand 4 and cast a wistful eye!” There’s lots of music in 'em—those dear, sweet hymns of old.- . With visions brignt of land of light, and shining streets of gold; And I hear ’em ringing—singing where Memory dreaming stands “From Greenland’s icy mountains to India’s coral stands.” They seem to sing forever of holier sweeter days, When the lilies of the love of God bloomed white in all the ways; And I want to near their music from -the old time meetin’s rise. Till “I can read my 'title clear to ' mansions in the skies.” Wenever needed singin’ books "in them old days—We knew the dear old hymn book through! We didn't have no trumpetsthen.no organs built for show. We only sang to praise the Lord “from whom all, blessing flow” - An’so I love the good old hemnsand when, my time shall come— Before the light has left me, and my singing lips are dumb— If I can hear ’em sing them then.

He then “ blanketed” the whole bunch into a classified civil service so that the incumbents would be practically assured of life tenue. His order was manifested unfair. Mrj^Harding1S order re quires every incumbent, at the ex piration of his term to take a com petitive examination and stand upon his merits. The classified civil ser vice system permits the appointing official, in all other instancesj_tq fill a position by selection of any. one of the three highest on the list.

In stead of diminishing, the number of criminals seems to be increasing. There appears'to be no end to them. Men who, through lack of em ployment, enter a life of . crime do not like to .go back to work again. Stealing requires less exertion. If the city authorities wake up and drive these hordes of bandits ffoin their limits at laast at a por- of.them will be> migrating to the Cduntryi in search of easy prey. Onr own community may not be exempt troin their unwelcome visits. An iron fist should be waiting fop every one of them who invades this territory. •Unwelcome guests should not be permitted to grow grass under their feet in our midst. Keep ’em going.—Ex. - V “Sentenced to Church.” “That was a peculiar sentence that four young women of Chicago received recently,” said a news paper reader yesterday. “They were 'sentenced to church.’ Four women coming before a Chicago judge ,were placed on probation for a year and ordered to go to church every Sunday‘in that time. They were charged, witli stealing. The judge said to. them, ‘You go to church every Sunday-morning and y‘ou must Ije home by 10 o’clock eyery night, and wash and dry dish es for your mother every day. I sjjpafll send my special-officer round every month and see how you are doing.” ' Boost Your Town. An ideal citizen is one who sees something good in his town and spreads the good news abroad that others may benefit therefrom. Of course, there are others side lights to the ideal-citizen but- the quality of loyalty is one which pro duces tangible results. There are three distinct attitudes which a person may assume toward the community which houses and feeds him—to boost, to remain qui escent, or to knock. The booster pushes his town along, the quiescent citizen lulls it to sleep, and the knocker helps to putit out oflbusiness. What are you? Perhaps you have never given it a thmight. You may not realize yourself which you are—but your neighbors all know. TheyyIiave you accurately- catalogued accord-., ing to your deserts. If you are .a booster, they admire, you; if you are .quiescent, .they wonder when you will fold up. your slumber; and if you are a knocker, they yearn for the day when you will fold up your .tent and silently fadeaway. Boost the home town; and let its citizens will boost you. ' Knock it, and you knock yourself infinitely more. Oh. Yon Hi!

Are they . not as well qualified to vote intellgently now as they will be after're-registering, or do you want to disfranchise alarge element of the voters of the town ship?

At least, that’s ■what he told Lady Fnimpley—she’s the woman of unassailable virtue. She was profoundly sentimental and scents a romance, in addition to being a snob and scenting a future duke,' to say nothing of a future duchess.' By the mercy of Allah she’s on a com mittee with his mother for distribut ing brown paper underclothes to des titute Belgians, and so Freddie wan gled an invite for her. Voila tout.” ■ "Splendid,” said Laklngton slowly. “Splendid. Young Laidley comes of age in about a week, doesn’t he?” _ “Monday, to be exact; and so I go down with my dear aunt on Satur day." Lakington nodded his head as if satisfied, and then glanced at his watch. “What about bed?” he remarked. “Not yet,” said Peterson, halting suddenly in his walk. “I must see the Tank before I go to Paris. We’ll have him down here now. Give him an injection, Henry—and,; by God, we’ll make the fool'sign. Then I can actually take it over to the meeting ■with me.” He strode to the door, followed by Lakington; and the girl in the chair stood up and stretched her arms above her head. For a moment or two Hugh watched her; then he, too, stood up right and eased his cramped limbs. “Make the fool sign.” The words echoed through his. brain, and he stared thoughtfully at the grey light ■which showed the approach of dawn.- What was the best thing to do? “Make” with .Peterson generally im plied torture, if other means failed, and Hugh had no intention of watch ing any man tortured. At the. same time something of the nature of the .diabolical plot conceived by Peterson was beginning to take a definite shape in hi? mind, though , many of the most Important links were still missing. ,And with this knowledge had come the realization that he was no longer a free agent. The thing had ceased to be a mere sporting gamble with himself and a few other chosen spir its matched against a gang of crim inals; it had become—if his surmise was correct—a national affair. Eng land herself—her very existence—was threatened by one of the vilest plots ever dreamed of In the brain of man. And then, witjj a sudden rage at his own impotence, he' realized that even now he had nothing definite to go on. He must know more; somehow or other he must get to Paris; he ''must attend that meeting at the Ritz. Then a sound from the room below brought U m -back''to his vantage point The American was sitting in a chair, and XiBklngton, with a hypodermic, syringe In his hand, was folding his arm. He made the Injection, and Hugh watched the millionaire. He was still undecided as to how to act, But for the moment, at any rate, there was sothing to be done. And he was very curious to hear what Peterson had-to say to the wretched man, who, up to date, had figured so largely in every round. 'After a while the American ceased staring vacantly in front of him, and parsed hla hand dazedly over his fore head. Cien he half rose from his chair and stared at the two men sit ting facing him. His eyes'came round to the girl, and with a groan he sank back again, plucking feebly with his hands at his dressing gown. ' “Better, Mr.. Potts?” said' Peterson; suavely. ' “I—I—” ,' stammered the other. “Where am I?” • “At The Elrasn ,Godalming, if you -sdsh to know.” “!.thought—I til ought——" He rose swaying. “What do you' want with me? D—n yon !" “ Tush, tush,” murmured Peterson. “There is a lady present, Mr. Potts. And our wants are so simple.. Just your signature to a little agreement, by which in return for certain 'services you promise to join us In our—er— labors in. the near future.” ‘ “I remember,” cried- the millionaire. ■“Nviw I remember. Tou swine—you filthy swine, I refuse . . absolute ly ” , , “The trouble is, my friend, that you ' ore altogether too big an' employer of labor to;be allowed to- refuse; as I V dinted out to you before, Tou must be In .with us, otherwise you might wreck the scheme. Therefore I re quire your signature.” ' *■ “And when you’ve got it,” cried the American, “what good- will It be to you. ■ I shall repudiate it.” ‘ jlOh! no, Mr.=. Potts,” said Peterson wlth a thoughtful smile; “I can assure' yen, you won't The distressing mal ady ttom WhICH you v-6 recently been' suffering will again have you' in its grip. It renders you quite unfit for business.” For a while there was silence, and the millionaire stated round the. room like a trapped animal.. “I refuse!” he cried at last. “It’s an outrage against humanity.- Tou can do what you like.” , “Then we’ll start with a IitfIe more thumbscrew,” remarked Peterson, strolling over to the desk and opening a. drawer. “An astonishingly effective implement, as you can see if you look at your thumb:” He stood in front of the quivering man, balancing the instrument in his hands. “It was un der its Influence, you gave us'the first signature, which we so regrettably lost. I think we’U try it again. . The American gave a strangled cry of terror* and then the unexpected hap pened. There was a crash as a pane of glass splintered and fell to the floor close beside Lakington;. and with an oath he sprang aside and lqoked np. “Peep-bo,” came a . well-known voice from the skylight. "CliJi him oiie over the jaw, Potts, my boy; but don’t you sign.” CHAPTER VIII. In Which He Goesto Paris for a Night ONE. • Drummond had acted on the spur of the moment. It would have been man ifestly impossible for any . inan, cer tainly one of his caliber, to have watched the American ,.being tortured without doing something to try to help him. At the same time the last thing he had wanted to do was to give away his presence on the roof. The informa tion he had obtained that night'was of such vital importance that it was absolutely essential for. him to get away with it somehow; and, at the mo ment, his chances of so doing did nqt appear particularly bright It looked as if -it was' only a question of. time before they must get him. He watched Lakington dart from the room, followed more slowly by Peter son, and then: occurred one of those strokes of luck on. which the incor rigible soldier always depended. The girl left the room as welt. She kissed her hand toward him,' ana Qien she smiled. “Tou intrigue me, ugly one,” she re marked, looking up, "intrigue me vast ly. I ain now going out to get a really good view of the Kill.” And the next moment Potts was clone. He was staring up at the sky light, •- apparently. bewildered, by the “I Am Now Going Over to Get a Really Good View of the Kill.” . sudden turn of ' events, and then hie heard the voice' of : the irian above, speaking clearly and insistently.. . “Go out of the . room.. Turn to the: right. Open tbe front door. You’ll see a house, through , some !trees. Go to it. When you get there, stand on the lawn and call ‘Phyllis.’ - f>o you get me?” Tbe American nodded dazedly; then he made a great 'effort to. pull .himself together, as the voice continued: “Go at once;; It’s your only' chance; Tell her I’m on"thesroof here.” With a sigh of relief he saw the mil lionaire leave the room; theh he straightened himself up, and proceeded to recannoiter his oVn position. There was a bare chance that the American’ would get through, and if he did, every thing might yet be well. If he didn’t —Hugh shrugged his shoulders grimly and laughed. It had become quite light, and after a moment’s. indecision Druminorid took a. running jump, and .paughttlie. ridge of the sloping roof on the side dearest the road. f;rom where he was he could not see Tlie Larches, and so he did not know what luck the-American; had had. But he realized , that It was; long . odds against his getting through, 'and that his chief'hope lay in himself. It occurred to' him that far too few un- biased;people knew where he was-; it further occurred to. him that it was a state of affairs which was likely to continue uniess he remedied it-himself. And so, just as Peterson came strolling around: a cornet of the house followed by several men and a long -ladder, Hugh commenced to sing. He shouted, he roared at the lop Of his very pow erful voice, and all the tinie he watched the 'men below ..with a wary eye. It was just as two laborers-came In to, investigate the hideous din that Peterson’s party, discovered the ladder was too short by several.,yards. , ■ Then.with, great^rapidity the audi ence grew. A passing milkman; two commercial travelers, a gentleman of slightly inebriated aspect, whose trous ers left much to the imagination; and. finally more farm laborers/ Never had such a tit-bit of gossip for thfe local alehouse. been seen in the neighbor hood; it would furnish a topic of con versation for weeks to come. And still Hugh, sang and Peterson cursed; and still the audience grew. Then, at last, there came the police with notebook all complete, and the singer:'stopped singing to laugh,. , The next moment the laugh froze on his lips. Standing by the skylight, with his revolver raided, was Lakington, and Hugh knew by the expression of his face that his Buger was trembling on the trigger. Out of view of the crowd below.be did not know of its existence, and, in a flash;'Hugh realized his dan ger. -. ; :j- “Good morrow, Henry,” he -said quietly.. “I wouldn't fire if I were you. We are observed, as they say in melo drama. If you don’t believe ine,” his voice grew a little tense, “just wait while'I talk to Peterson, who is at pres ent deep In converse with . the village constable and several farm laborers.” It is doubtful whether any action, in Hugh Drummond’s life ever cost him such an effort, of will as the turning of his back on the man standing two yards' below, him,, but he did it ap parently without thought.- Hegaveone last glance at the face convulsed with rage, and then with a smile hei looked dbwn at the crowd below, “Peterson,” he called out affably, “there’s a pal of yours up here—dear old Henry. And he’s very annoyed at my concert. Would you jlist speak to him, or would you like me to be more explicit? He is so annoyed that there might be an accident at any moment, and I see that the police, have ar rived. Sb—er-— Even at that distance he could see Peterson’s eyes of fury,-and he chuck led softly to. himself. But when, the leader Spoke,, his voice was as' suave as ever; the eternal cigar glowed even ly at its normal rate. . “Are you up on -the roof, 'Laking ton ?” The words came clearly through the still summer air, “Tour turn, Henry,”-said Drummond. "Prompter’s voice off—‘yes, dear Peter son, I am here, even upon the roof, with a 'Ih^f of hideous aspect.* ” ■ With a Dslglity effort Lakington con trolled himself, and his voice, when he answered, v/as calm, “Tes; Tm here. -What’s the matter?” “Nothing,” cried' Peterson, “but we’ve got quite a large and apprecia tive audience down here,, attracted by our friend’s charming concert, and I’ve just sent for.a large ladder by which he can come down and join us. So there is nothing that you- can do— nothing.”' He repeated the word with a faint .emphasis, and Hugh smiled genially. 1 “I’m Interested in quite a number of things, Captain Drummond,” said Lak ington slowly, “but they all count as nothing beside one—getting even with you. And when I do . . He dropped the revolver into his coat pocket,- arid stood motionless, staring at the soldier. The .next instant he opened a door in the skylight which Hugh had failed to discover during, the , night/ and, climbing down a ladder inside the room, disappeared from view. ' . “Hullo; old bean!”. A-cheerful.shout from the ground made Hugh look down. There, ranged round Peterson, in an effective group, were Peter Dar rell, Algy Longworth, and JeiTy Sey mour.. “Bird’s-iiestin’T” “Peter, old soul,” cried Hugh joy fully, “I never thought tie . day. would come when !.should be pleased'to see SfOur, face, but if has I” , “Ted and his pal, Hugh, have! toddled off In your car/’ said Peter, “so that ., only leaves us four and' Toby.” Ftfr a moment Hugh stared at him blankly, while he, did some rapid men tal arithmetic.

In hospitals are many women who are there for surgical operations, and there is nothing a woman dreads more than the thought of an operation, and the long weary months of recovery and restoration to strength if it is successful. It is very true that female troubles may through neglect reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but most of the commoner ailments of women are not the surgical ones; they are not caused by serious displace ments, tumors or growths, although the-symptoms may appear the same. When disturbing ailments first appear take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to relieve the present distress and prevent more serious troubles.

WANTAGE OF VAUET UNDS Dairy Industry Would' Become More Profitable if Cows of Greater Pro- . ducttve Capacity Were Intro duced by Farmers, (Prepared by the United States Department Ot Agriculture,) That the size of the farm has much to do with the success of the owner is shown by'results of a survey conduct ed by the United States Department of Agriculture in five counties In tha south and southeastern Ozark region of Missouri. The operation of a gen eral farm in the Ozarks with much less than 40 acres of land for crops is. exceedingly unsatisfactory, regardless of the location of the farm, whether among the valleys or the hills. Study Many Kinds of Farms: The report of the survey published by the department as Department'Bul letin 941, entitled. “Farm-Management in the Ozark Region- of Missouri,” is based on the study of the,organizatlon and management of 79 farms, 31 of which are representative, of conditlpns of rolling and hilly uplands, and 48. of valley and level uplands. The topo graphical structure 'to a large extent determines the agricultural value of the land, says the report- As a rule the operator of a valley or level up land farm has a - decided advantage over the operator.of the rough farm.. After deducting from their total re ceipts the year’s operating expenses, including the value of family labor and allowing 5 per. cent interest on the capital invested, the survey shows, that the operators of rolling and hilly farms had, In 1917, an average labor income of $309, and those operating valley or level upland farms an aver age of $646. Of the 79 farms studied, 20 per cent had no labor income after allowing for the deductions referred to, and 21 per cent had a labor income above $1,000. Labor incomes earned by typical "oper ators indicate that one having much less than 40 acres of crop Iand for a general live-stock., farm has a rather poor chance of financial success. ' Better Cows Would Increase Income. Live-stock farming is the principal agricultural Industry ,of the region. The use of cows for dairy purposes Is increasing. The average annual pro duction per cow of 78 cows on the. better class of dairy farms in the area covered by the survey was 142 pounds of butterfat This industry, says the report, ■ would become more profitably if cows of greater productive capacity were introduced, and the production would be increased if. the feeding of EASILY CONTROLLED Insures Animal More Equal WianceatFeedTrough. Renders Animal Less Dangerous to At. tendants and Prevents Tfouble * In Shipping—Treat Calves When Very Young. , OPrepared by the United StateB Department of Agriculture.) Dehorning cattle makes it . easier to handle the animals and insures that each one will have a more equal chance at the feed trough. It renders the animals less dangerous to attend ants and prevents them from goring one another in the feed lot - or in transit to market. The practice of de horning..is almost universal so far as high grade, beef steers are concerned. * Typical Dairy Herd in Ozark Region. better-balanced rations was practiced more generally. Pasturage is- the foundation of a live-stock' industry, but natural pastures can be greatly improved by thinning out woodland areas, keeping the underbrush down, and sowing tame grasses. For greater assurance of live-stock feeds during the summer droughts, to which the section is liable, many farmers plant sorghum, millet and kafir corn as auxiliary hay crops. On better-managed farms silage is also produced for winter feed and some times to supplement the pasture, dur ing summer droughts. With proper care alfalfa, clover, soy beans and cowpeas are grown, the-possibility of these crops, both for hay and grazing, being clearly recognized. The soils of the region have a wide variation in natural fertility and pro ductiveness. They are usually porous, owing to the large content of stone and gravel. As a result, air and water circulate through them -freely, and when they are'.put under cultivation the humus content is quickly lost un less a system of farming is adopted in which provision Is made to replenish the supply. If the humus content is. lost the water-holding capacity of the soils is greatly reduced, and, as a re sult, crops suffer severely, during the summer droughts and profitable-yields are'then-almost Impossible. SANE AND ECONOMICAL FEED Feeder Must Know How Many Founds of Miik Cow Has Produced to Feed Properly.: Before a eow can be fed-what she needs and no-more, and that is the only sane and economical way of feed ing, the feeder ,must know.vhow many pounds of milk she. produced and. how much butter fat was In the -milk:; Animal in Dehorning Crate Ready for Operation. It is often desirable to dehorn the heif ers as well as the steers, especially when they are to be fed in troughs for a part of the year. Calves may be dehorned when a few days old by treating the undevel oped horns with caustic soda or caustic potash, taking care that it does not wash into the eyes. If the horns are allowed to develop, it becomes necessary to cut them off. Clippers made for the purpose may be used on the younger animals.- With older cattle a saw is best, as it pre vents crushing, and the friction of the blade causes the blood vessels to clot and heal quickly. The work should not be done In warm weather, as the wound may become infested with screw worms.

LQSS OF VIRGIN FERTILITY Sufficient Qiantities of Plantfooa Nec essary In Soils to Maintain Productiveness. To inaintain the productiveness of a soil It is necessary to preserve with in the soil sufficient quantities . of available plant food at least to preyen the yield from falling'off after a pe-. riod- of cropping: . Hundreds of field experiments have demonstrated, that the best soils will gradually lose their virgin fertility - unless more than or dinal? care is given to the . cropping ■system and the return of plant foods.

Gave Dwellings Style Again Scarcity of Homes Drives Italian Peasants to Dig Houses in the Hillsides, CAK UUGH AT THE RQIT MAN in- Several Places in World Today : Mankind Still Lives in the Simple and -Inexpensive Fashion of . Primitive Ancestors.. Washington, D. C.—Cave houses are coming in style again. Scarcity of housing accommodations in the dis trict along Lakes Maggiore and Como, Italy, has driven many peasants to dig houses for themselves m the hill sides where they live In primitive simplicity, newspaper dispatches say. “The inhabitants of most of the countries of the world have: at some stnge in their development lived in cave dwellings. A belt of such dwel lings extends from Cnma across India to Asia Minor rand Arabia, thence along the shores of the Mediterranean to the Canary Islands, the West Indies, Mexico' and North and' South America. In a few places today, man kind still lives In this simple and in expensive fashion,” says a bulletin from the Washington, D.

Wife Borrowed Children Io Plead Before Judge When John Rams' of Muske gon, Mich., was convicted of vio lating the liquor law, his wife and 12 small children • appeared to plead for mercy. The judge- was so impressed by the poverty of the large family that he showed leniency. Later, officers reported to the court thpt: seven of the children belonged to neighbors, having been “bor rowed” for the occasion. during this season, while their houses! In the mountains are being guarded by a few trusty men. “At Matmata and Medinine In Tunisia are extraordinary underground^ pit dwellings. When he Is told that he is approaching one of these villages the traveler experiences a queer sen sation at seeing nothing on the land scape except crater-Uke holes in ,the earth which look Uke they might have been caused by the explosion of enor mous shells. As he peeps over the rfm of these,holes In the earth he sees below him the intimate life of the family, their dogs and-camels. This is their common living room, which is entered from above by a slanting subterranean channel. Other rooms enter into it by means of lateral passageways, and are • sometimes ex cavated ode above, the-other for two or three stories.. It is said that as many as 1,200 people live in these pits. “There have been cave dwellers .in Asia Minor since long before the tune of Xenophon, • who says • that their1 bonses were underground with en, trances like wells, and that In them the members of the household-, lived with goats, cows, and. chickens. Here too they stored the hay for their ani mals and their own supplies of wheat, barley and vegetables. In the region around'Mount’Argaeus in Cappadocla, southern Turkey, there are cope dwel lers living today whose habitations perhaps more nearly resemble the American cliff -houses to be found in Arizpna and.

FINDS WORLD MUCH BETTBl Loyal' Wife' Happy Over' Freedom .at Last for Protector of Her Home— Declares Innocence Cf the Crime Charged. Milwaukee.—Ten years behind, the. cold gray stone of Wanpun state prison have broken the spirit of many, a manv To John F. Dietz they have emphasized the determination and courage which won him the immemo-, rial title of “the defender of Caifieron dam.” * Back in -civilian clothes, fresh from the exhilaration of his first automobile ride in ten years, and surrounded by the loyal wife and children who have staged an unrelenting fight for his freedom, John Dietz presents the same picture of sturdy manhood which won The sympathy of a nation'during the most spectacular “siege” in Wiseonr sin’s history. Physically, John Dietz has changed from the man who entered Waupun. a decade ago. The husky frame is slight ly stooped. His once vigorous hair, has grown sparse. The lines of age have crept- into the strong face. The fingers which so determinedly clutched a rifle trigger In defense of home and personal convictions _ have become drawn? But. mentally “the defender, of Cameron dam" is -the same John Dietz of ten years ago. "I haven’t a worry in the world. I never did have. My own heart • has proclaimed my innocence of the crime with-which I was charged. -I have had the peace of an innocent man.” No Malice Toward Accusers. • This statement is characteristic' of Gobs on Tennessee’s Great Guns the John Dietz of today. There is no malice, toward those who have taken ten years from his life. No threats or desires for . revenge. Only the sense .of a wrong which he .,is willing to forgive and the strengthened mani festation of right ■ “I can appreciate my freedom now. Any man can who - has spent time in a.penitentiary,” he said - • Mr. Dietz prefers to allow his prison experience to remain a closed book. But: of the events which led up: to the’ battle In. his north woods home he en joys to discourse. Beginning with the political fend of which the “siege” was the culmina-i tion, Mr. Dietz gave an accurate and- chronological'account. Articles which had been published In newspapers of his struggle against the enemy, poems of his own composition, written with the mental .zest which characterizes Hie brain capacity, of the "defender,” wefe recited with remarkable accuracy. \ And. throughout it all thdre was never an attempt to paint, himself as a hero or a martyr. Just the plain; straightforward, recital of facts -and a desire to give even his enemies a word, of praise when, he deemed praise- was due. t John Dietz then , did not represent the spirit of “broken manhodi” as had been previously stated. There was a twinkle In .hts eye as he told of some of the amusing incidents, In his ro mantic career. Often he laughed heartily and playfully grasped his wife about the waist. Mrs.. Dietz, kind and- motherly, smiled- and then wiped a tear from her eye. “Yes, it has been a long fight, but we have , won,” she said, iff am the happiest woman In the: world today. It is the most I can say.” ’ .. Onassociated with the outslde world for ten years, the “defender of Cam eron dam” has not been a recluse. Considerableof his time has been spent, ip profitable study. Likewise he has- remained In touch with world happenings through the .weekly news papers and magazines which the pris oners are permitted to read. On the big political subjects of the day, the -Igte war, and the trail of new inven tions which have followed he is thoroughly versed. ■. ■■The world is not getting worse as some. would have us believe," he said “It’s getting better.: Wisconsin- has been making rapid strides.

ABLE TO FOLLOW ANY TRAIL Ahnds, East Indian Sect, Are Among the Most -Skillful Trackers ■ — - In the World. The Ahnds, natives of Jaum, In dia, are among the most skilled ani mal trackers In the world,, according to R. G. Burton, writing in the Eleld. They track bears, panthers-and other jungle creatures by a mere shadow of a footprint and-also by “marking,” a system of watching. When “marking” animals- the na tives stum out before sunrise ‘ and watch the animals as they slink back to their lairs. Then when the hunters tnke a position of -vantage the marker’s aids surround the ani mal on three sides, and drive it* out from cover. The-Ahnds often track bears across solid rock, where the creatures’ claws, scratching the surface; leave- a mark. The panther’s tread is so soft that no impress is made, save where the ground is ,soft enough to tnke the-pug of the pussyfoot, and yet they, track these wary animals when they show near the village.

W . Of Interest To Parents. Diphtheria caused 273 deaths in North Carolina last year. About 200 of these were in children under six years of age. This is why Divie county and the State Board of Health are advising every mother to give her children of this age toxin-antitoxin Toxin antitoxin preverts diphthe ria like the typhoid treatment pre vents typhoid. Thus toxin-antitoxin is what we need. This treatment is given in three doses a week apart. Itpauses no sores and there is very little bad feeling lrm taking it, most always n. ne. The fact that 2,400 children under one week of age have been given this treatment with no bad results, proves it is harmless Most children younger than six months are protect ed from mothers blood, which they received before being bom, so don’t need the treatment. The protection acquired lasts unlil.the'child gets to the age when it is rare for one to have diphtheria. Every mother and father in Davie county should protect their own lives and their* children above six from typhoid and those younger than six from dipliteria. Preventing these two diseases, th< State Board of Heajth says is no longer a dream but a reality. A Community Builder. Forty miles west from Habermans country, a North Carolina school teachers said. Let us Sing. They sang from the old square notes, an tiquated seventy years ago. This is the hilly country. Spurs, of the Great Smoky. Mountains, j divide cove, settlement from settlement, family from family. I must be brief—Theysing from funeral to funeral, from wedding to wedding. They sing at invalids’ beds. They sing at singing conventions which last for days; camp meetings they are, but the purpose is community singing by competing groups. Neither church nor state- has pro moted this movement. It has no building, v But in the three years past the singing impulse—organiz ed singing—has penetrated all the valleys of this lonely and somber mountain land. ' It makes me think - -this music movement which hasn't even a name—of the roseate or golden mists that one sees at dawn there, linking cove with cove a ;d intimating a glory ytt to be. —John Collier; in Hanifau’s Com munity Center. Extortioners. The world is full of them. Hell will be. Yet we 'honor and exilt them to the skies. Jacob was an extortioner. So was Pliaroah. But they didn't have the Holy Spirit to teach them as we have. Paul to the Corinthians said “I have written unto you not to keep company,' if any man that is called a brother-be a fornicators, op cove tous, or an idolator, ora railer, of a drhnkard, or an extortioner; with such au one not to eat. Nor thieves nor-any of these shall inherit the kingdom of God. ’ ’ Paul. told the truth. And the devil had him kill ed for it.—Exchange. The Conntry is Sound. .f (Roanoke-Chowan Times.) Ane we to have a repetition of con ditions that existed in North Carolina in the nineties, brought about by the , Cleveland Panic? Conditionsare ripe for it, though not nearly so bad as in those days. While money condi tions are acute at this time it is Hard to market anything, yet there is no suffering at the country. In this part of the State was gath ered I ist year the largest crop < f c irn this country has seen, ar d many farmers have enough on hand to last two years. Our smokehouses are full. We have more and better livestocks than ever before. Our farm lands are from 50 to 100 per cents more productive than they were in4he nineties, and the farms are well sup plied ^ ^ h S ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ en tsT There The sale of gasolinelias been as great in Northampton this year as it was the corresponding monthsjast year, which is proof that-people'can have what they want. Yet we may have people who would play upon the misfortunes of others, who would make them believe theie is something radically wrong, and by appealing to their prejudice gain popular favor. Lets us hope that we may have none df this class a- Jraut us. Too Many Somebodys. Mr. Hover says that 4,300,000 workers are idle in Europe. Iii this country an even 'greather number are idle. Europe was prostrated by the greater war, wrecked in body, soal and finances. America was finan cially benefitted. Why are so many people idle this country when every man she uld be producing something? There is some excuse for idleness in Europe! Thereis no excuse be'e. The comparison is not flattering to our intelligence; but looking the -truth in the face may do some good. Some one is gumming the works and throwing monkey wrenches in to the machinery. Too many somebodys, we fear. The Strike. Strikes are in a sense like war—an unnecessary, wasteful and most un satisfactory method of setting differ ences. But up to this good hour mankind hun’t grown wise enough to advoid either, although all think- :ng people must admit that the cost in either ease is excessive and the results usually unsatisf; c ory. — Statesville Daily..

A resolutions to that end was adop ed at their an nual meeting at Covington, Ga. The "shorter hours” pertain to the length of “dates,” not working hours. Slash Again. Short skirts for women have been vindicated. - : Hurrah! Cut off another foot or two! _ Statistics gathered in -Chicago show that the short skirtsis respon sible for reducing the number of accidents to women iu boarding and alighting from street cars and trains. "Before the advent of the short skirt innumerable falls were caused by women stepping on their own skirts are cutting down the number of accidents,” says the statistician. Hurrah again! Off with still a little more! We men will look the other way —when our wives are around. This is a good country. It will continue to be a good country as long as its people are good citizens. Let’s have no other kind.—Ex. Another Eternal Triangle. Three big concerns art connected with taxes—how to reduce them, how to pay them and bow to dodge them.—Toledo Blade. • *■ A Gentleman.

(Country GentIman ) When ancient Rome built up its cfies and then levied high taxes upon its farmers and rural regions to pav for the magnificent edifices the g reat road system and the horde ot oflice holders which a complex form of government had created and who must be kept pacified, it wrought its own destruction. When the nobles of Francp and a degenerate kihg ground down the peasant farmers under their heels to [uniisli funds for their luxury and revelry, they gave no heed to the muttered rumblings that arose. Who cared? “After us, the deluge,” said the king to his favorite. And the deluge came. A bullhead, stiff-neck king and a stupid parliament, against good ad-' vice, laid taxes on tea, whereupon certain colonists dumped' the’ tax- burdened imports into the harbor, kicked out the tax collectors of the king and set up a government and a tax colleetion system of their own. Taxes were the direct/cause of the American Revolution. It has been ever thus. Taxes have probably been at the bottom of almost every great upheaval since histoiv began. Particular have thev been responsible for the up risings of farmers. Whenever a government spends great sums of mouev, and then, in order to avoid taxing themselves, the officials find means of levying the burden upon the men who till the soil, there is danger. Or whenever in addi-ion tine burden is put upon the poor aud humble of the cities, upon the consuming class, while the wealthy go free, there is double danger. There is a limit beyond which we dare not go m levying taxes, what ever the charactor and intelligence of our citizens and their loyalty to establish government. When Na- p. Ie n needed more money for h's wars and wanted heavier taxes lev ied, Carnot, his minister of finance, gave him some sound advnce: 'Sir,” said the great financier, “the only wav to pluck this tax goose is lo pluck up to the point where he squawks and no futher. Then- let him rest till feathers grow again.” NUMBER 51. you re to unimportant Mistakes In Life, You’re Wealthy.

Aiding The Home Builder. Franklin T. Miller, sounsel for the senate committee on reconstruction aid assistant to Secretary- Hoover in matters relating to construction pro- lems, addressed the North Carolina Building and Loand Association in convention at Elizabeth Citv. His subject was the housing problem. In-summarizing the factories that will help overcome the shortage, Mr Miller advised against subsides which may have believed advisable to aid home building. -Hedoes not think that govenment aid is the proper solution of tee problem, but rather that the elimulation of certain evils will bring a natural stimulation to house building. Gapitil must be better distributed between investment and consump tion, Mr. Miller says. The war tax es must be revised so that capital wi I not be continually driven into tax free securities, and building cost must be decreased. There is no doubt that the present tax system has k e p t an enormous amount of money-out of building mortgages because of the taxes. Untilthetaxlawsarechang- ed so that building offers an attrac tive investment, there will be a con- tiourd shortage of capital available for construction needs. - Mr. Miller urges a greater interest in building and loanassociatifn, be cause these organizations have done more to aid the home builders than any other aaency. Especially is this true in’ this section, where practically all building and loan companies are u able to meet the demands made upon.them for home building funds! jfciy to vn or city with which to over come its housing shortage cm find’ no better way than to induce it citi zens and load so that more money may be made available for dwelling- c instruction. More and larger build ing and taxes and the elimination of waste in the building industry so that operations may.be more economically conducted will go a long way toward giving the country more houses to live in.—Highways and Industries.

" - What Will It Cost The Tax Payer*. Mr. Editor:—I have; been look ing for those in favor of Consolida tion to give us figures showing what it will cost, but in vain. I will try and give your readers a few figures showing what it will cost to start with; I do not believe the amounts given will he sufficient, however that may be here goes: The taxable property in Mocksville township for the year 1920 amount ed to.$2I69i,594. The 30 cent rate will raise $8,074.78, the interest on ninety thousand bonds at 6 per cent will take $5,400; a 5 per cent sink ing fund to pay the bonds will-take $4,500 more making in all of extra taxes for this township. $17,974.78. This amount added to our State and County taxes will make quite a ■large sum to raise at this time, es pecially when the people are already murmuring because of the heavy load of National, State, County and special taxes. Is there no limit to the inclination of certain people, to continue to pile up the taxes on the people regardless of their ability to pay? The people of the town and of the county are now paying thous ands of dollars to the bond holders oa good roads and other bonds; and our legislature has disregarded the plain words of the Constitution and has exemoted these bonds from taxation, thus throwing the burden of taxes upon those least able to bear the burden. If a farmer has accumulated a thousand dollars and loans it out, he pays taxes on the note and mortgage, but.if one buys a 7 per cent non-taxable bond of the rich coroporations he pays not a cent of taxes on same, it. may bear a dividend rate of 6, 7, or 8 per cent, yet he pays no tax. Is it right, is it fair tax everything the farmer and producer of the neces saries of life raises and has, and exempt the stocks and bonds of the rich who put their money, in the big corporations? Article 5; Sec tion 3, of the Constitution says. Laws shall be passed taxing by uniform rules, all moneys, credits, investments in-bonds, stock, joint stock companies, or otherwise; and also all real and personal property, according to its true value. in ' mon ey. ” The Const tution “doult say that the leg s'atuje may, it says it shall pass laws taxing bonds and stocks. It is up to the: voters in this couniry to put a stop to such laws as are being passed exempting bonds and stocks from' taxation. Theyhavegot to register mud go to the polls and vote for men for the legislature and congress who will quit passing such laws. Are you going to do it? Don’t stay at home and expect the-things you want or do not want will- come to you without and effort on your part. It’s your duty as a-good 'citizen *to register and vote for e men and measures. Youmust register on cr before July gth, or your vote won’t count in this bond and tax election. If you are opposed to the tax and bonds, failure to rigister is equiva lent to voting far. ■ - - E.-H.

In the same* way that the operat or has to have a license, it is also necessary for each farmer to see that the party threshing his grain has a license. Each thresher must keep and report the bushels thresh-- ed and the acres -from which the grain was harvested. All thresher operators should at once get their licenses, ■ when a notebook for keeping the records reguires, as well as the report sheets will be given them. These -books are to be retained permanently by the operator for personal records. But at the c'.ose of the threshing season or not later than September 15th, a complete report up to that date.must be made to the Register of Deeds. The thresher’s reports are not to.be sent to Raleigh, but to the Register of Deeds of each county where the threshing is done. A word to the wise: Operate with a license and be sure the oper ator is . licensed. Failure for a thresher to report means $25 00 fine, altho the license costs nothing is free. The records made' will be a business memoranda for reference in Iateryears and for making col lections from farmers. The iufoimation is Used as a check on how much grain we pro duce and where it is made. - It is a good business and educational provision. Farmington News.

CUSTOMS FIFTY YEARS AOO Who among us would say to-day, “I never use a Dentifrice, I never have to?” Yet Fifty years ago, odd as it may seem, not one person in 1,000 used a Dentifrice— or even a tooth brush. So to-day,, after more than 30 years of persistent publicity of Allen’s Poot=Ease1 the Antiseptic Powder for the Feet;’not many well-turned-out people care to confess, “You know I never have to use a Powder for the Feet!” More than One Million five hundred' thousand pounds of Powder for the Feet were used by our Army and Havy during the war. The reason is this: Incasing and confining the feet in Leather or Canvas. Shoes is bound to create friction, more or less. Allens Foot=Ease removes the friction from the shoes, and freshens the feet. It is this friction which causes smarting, cal louses, corns and bunions. You know what friction does to your motor-car axle. Why not remove it from your footwear by Shaking into your Shoes to-day, Allen’s Foot= Ease, the-cleanly, wholesome, healing, Antiseptic powder? Get the habit, as millions now have it.

State house at Philadelphia, where the Deelaration of Independenee was adopted, now known ae Independence HalI^From a Contemporary Print. FOURTH O F JULY, 1776, R EA L D A TF OF DECLARATION Dispute has arisen at, times as, to whether Julr 2 or Julr 4 should be observed as Independence day. It trill be seen br the following quotation from “The American Berolutlon,*' written br John Fiske and published by HouEbtonr Midlin company, that the Declaration of Independence was resolved upon July 2, but-was not put Into form and finally adopted until the evening of July 4. On the 1st oi inly, 1776, copgress resolved.itself into a committee of the whole, to “take into consideration toe- resolution respecting independency." As Richard Henry Le4 Was absent. John Adams, who had seconded the motion, was called upon to defend it which he did In a powerful speech. He was ably opposed by "John Dickin son, who urged that the country ought not to be rashly committed' to a po sition, to recede frpffi which would be infamous, while to persist In it might entail certain ruin. A dedar- - ation of independence would . not strengthen the resources of the coun try by a single regiment, or a single cask of powder, while it would shut the door upon all hope, of accommoda tion with Great Britain. • That there w as. weight In these considerations' was shown only too plainly by subsequent events. But the argument as a whole was open to the fatal objection that if the American people were g to wait for these questions to be settled before taking a decisive step, they would never be able to take a decisive step at all. Independent action on the part of all the colonies except Hew Tork had now become an accom plished fact. All were really In re-- bellion, and their cause could not fail to gain in dignity and strength by an nouncing itself to the world in its true character. Such was now the general feeling of the; committee. When the-question was put to vote, the New Tork delegates were excused, as they had not sufficient instructions. Of the three delegates from Delaware, one was absent, one voted yea, and one nay, so that the vote of. the col ony-was lost Pennsylvania declared m the-negative by four votes against three. South Carolina also declared in the negative, but with the intima tion from Edward Butledge that it might not unlikely reverse its voteyin deference to the majority. The other nine colonies all voted In the affirm ative, and the resolution was reported as agreed, to by a two-thirds vote. On the next day, when the vote was formally taken in regular session of congress, the Delaware members were all present, and- the affirmative vote of that colony Was secured,; Dickinson and Morris stayed away, thus re versing' the vote of’ Pennsylvania; and the South Carolina members changed for the sake of unanimity. Thus was the Declaration of Inde pendence at last resolved upon, by the unanimous vote, of twelve col onies, on the 2nd of July, 1776; and this work having been done, congress at once went into committee of the whole, to consider the form of dec laration which should be adopted Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, - Ben jamin Franklin, Roger- Sherman and Robert Livingston were the members of a committee to draw up the dec laration, and Jefferson, as represent ing the colony which had introduced the resolution of independence, was chosen to be the author of the dec laration. $ On the evening of the 4th o f July, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was unanimously adopted by twelve1 colonies, the delegation from -New Tork still remaining unable to act. , But the acquiescence of that colony j was so generally counted upon that : there was no drawback to the exul- I tation of the people.. I ll over - the country the declaration was . received with bonfires, with the ringing of bells and the firing of guns, and with torch light processions. There were as merry soldiers In the days of the American Bevqlutiqn as there are now. One of the. most laughable figures in th e Continental army was Doctor Skinner, a waggish surgeon whose huge fur cap and long beard made him the butt of the sol diers everywhere.' When asked by a teasing comrade why he wore sfich a lengthy beard, be. nniswered: iTt is a secret, sir, betwixt my God and myself, that human ImpertBtence shall never penetrate." And this same doughty surgeon, who '-was always ready to-pick a quarrel- In private, todk excellent care of his precious person on the battlefield; “Every man has his sphere of action,” . said he, “beyond the limits of which he oqght never to emerge. Mine amidst the tumults of war, the conflicts of battle is In. the rear. There I am always to be found! I am firm at my post I" And nobly he lived up to his prin ciple! One night When an alarm sounded, Colonel Lee rushed forward to learn the cause and met Doctor Skinner in full retreat. “What’s the matter, doc tor?;’. called Colonel Lee. “Whither so fast* Not frightened, I/ hope!” !lNoS colonel, no I”, replied, the doctor , hurriedly. ' “Not absolutely , fright ened, but,.’I candidly confess, most terribly alarmed!” Among other merry wags In the Con tinental- army was an Irishman named Levingstone. He belonged to Marion’s “Declare Vour Principles!" ' _ brigade. One very dark night he was separated from his companions and, as he was Wandering around, he was sud denly surrounded by a troop of horse men, and a pistol was pressed against his breast “Declare instantly to what party you belong,” shouted a harsh voice, "or you are a dead man I” Lev ingstone peered through the darkness, but could not make out the uniforms of the troopers. “I think, sir," said Jie cautiously, “It would be ' a little .more In the way of civility If you were, to drop a hint, just to let me know which side of this question you- are pleased to favor,” “No : jesting!” roared the trooper “Declare yonr- principles or die I” “Then,” shouted Levingstone, "I will not die with a lie In my mouth I American!—to the extremity, you spalpeen! So do your worst!” "You are an honest fellow!” laughed the ,horseman. "We are friends, and I rejoice to meet a man faithful as you are'to the cause of your country I’’—New Tork Evening Post Magazine.

LAIR-Y POINTS GOOD OF BULL ASSOCIATIONS Animals Are of Better Quality Than Ordinary Run of 3Ires Pri- ' vately Owned. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) A survey recently made. In connec tion with the “better, sires—better stock” campaign, carried on by the United States Department of Agricul ture shows a general ratio, of I bull to every 18.9 cows. Experience, how ever, in Pennsylvania, the state which leads'In ’the number of bull associa tions, "shows that 93 bulls. are suffi cient for the 5,601 cows belonging to members of the bull associations, or an average of about. I bull for every fiO cows. These figures are taken from the bull-association directory recently issued by the dairy division, Dhlted States Department of Agriculture. If the members of these associations t owned their-bulls individually, at the usual ratio of , I bull for every 18.9 cows, they would need ,298 bulls in stead of 93, Tet the 93 bulls give the required, service as effectively as 296 The Type of. Animal Jh a t Is GainMg - Popularity Beoaiise of the "Better Sires—Better Stock* Campaign. would do, and in fact better, because the resulting offspring are better. !Hie association bulls are of better quality than the ordinary run ef sires private ly owned, and theig daughters are apt to be better-producing cows. v Even this does not tell the whole story. Aftqr an individually owned' Slrq has been used for about two years it is usually necessary to get a new ong. In eight years, therefore, these Pennsylvania farmers, if they-owned their bulls separately, would have to provide themselves w ith' four times 296 bulls, or 1,184; whereas In the bull associations at the end of two years they simply mhve each bull to another herd; The original 9F bulls, if they alfllve and do well, can be used for, the whole eight years. Ifhere is quite a difference between the cost of 93 bulls and that of 1,184, to-say nothing of the difference In their usefulness. . .

Friendly rivalry' among milk pro ducers and among dealers is an im portant- feature in the < improvement of the milk supplies of cities, United States Department of Agriculture ex perts assert..- Any factor which, en courages this rivalry must be' given careful consideration by sanitarians and ail milk authorities. - Since the inauguration of milk and cream con tests, in 1906. this method -of promot ing, friendly- rivalry has been recog nized. At this time., besides State and National, contests, a number of cities use such means for grading milk supplies. , MUk and cream contests promote competition among the dairymen, lead to the grading-of milk supplies, and through publicity encourage the ef forts of producers as well-as educate the consumers regarding the value of good mUk .and where the best can be obtained. .

Getting well under way last year, The tide In its fa vor has swept past everything In the; way of fabrics this season—there is q happy, madness for it In all colors. Its daintiness lends .distinction and re finement to the most commonplace and the most daring hues; familiar ones, like navy: and brown, have a new Charin In it, and high colors—purple, gold, cherry' and the like, are at their best 'In such sheer jstuffs.' ' The last models presented In organ die are nearly all In two colors, and this combination is achieved by using one color, for a foundation, with ah overdress In another, or by using one color In accessories and trimmings on another. Squares or other geometri cal figures are cut out for trimming, set on the dress as desired, and hem stitched In, or tucks are edged with narrow borders in a contrasting color, or bands, of it are Introduced in skirt and bodice and hemstitched along the edged. Bands with picot edges are tised in frills and rhchihgs and ap plied in many ways as Straight or fes tooned ruffles, large disks or squares, and numberless organdie flowers axe made of these bands. ' » There are a great many one-color organdie frocks, however, and- most of them are simply made. A very pret ty one. appears inThe picture, and the model is adapted to other sheer fabrics like voUe,: lawn, crepe de chine" or foulard. Its simple but pleasing stoiy is told ifi a full skirt with panel at toe front and three groups of two tucks each about toe sides and back. The bodice has a round neck and el bow sleeves finished with narrow dou ble frills:.' The girdle—which is usual ly made of toe material—is decorated with ribbon flowers.; These fabric, gir dles often find themselves In the com pany' of pretty sashes' of narrow rib bon In one or two colors with long -ends hanging, at one slde-and ribbon, flowers to match. .

And assured ly at the moment it seemed easy mon ey Then, quite suddenly, the hum ming stopped and he frowned. The car in ftont had swung off the road, and turned through the entrance of a small airdrome. What the devil was be to do now? Most assuredly he could not pursue an airplane on a mo tor-even a racer. Blindly, without thinking, he did the first thing that came into his head. He left his car standing where it was, and followed tbe others into the airdrome on foot perhaps he could find out something from one of the mechanics; someone might be able to tell him where the plane was going. Tiiere she was with the car beside her. and already the millionaire was being strapped into his seat. Drum mond was talking to the pilot, and the sleuth, full of eagerness, accosted a passing mechanic. "Cnn you tell me where that air plane is going to?” he asked ingrati atingly. It was perhaps unfortunate that the said mechanic had just had a large spanner dropped on his toe, and his answer was not helpful. It Was -an education in one way, and at any oth er time the pursuer would have treat ed it with the respect it deserved. But, as it was, it was unfortunate that Peter Darrell should have chosen that moment to look round.' And all he saw was the mechanic talking ear nestly to the sleuth. . . . Where- apon he talked earnestly to Drum mond. . . . In thinking It over after, that un happy sleuth whose job had seemed so easy, found it difficult to say exactly what happened. AU of a sudden he found himself surrounded by people— all very affable and most conversa tional. It took him quite five minutes to get back to his car, and by that time tiie plane was a speck in the west. Drummond was standing by the gates when he got there, with a look of profound surprise on his face. One I have seen often,”' remarked Ihe soldier; “two sometimes; three rarely; four never. Fancy four punc tures—all at the same time! Dear, dear! I positively insist on giving you a lift” He felt himself irresistibly propelled toward Drummond’s car, with only time for a fleeting glimpse at his own four flat tires, and almost before he realized it they were away. And it was then that the man he had thought mad laughed gently. Is it all right; Peter?” Hugh asked.

He addressed himself In a voluble crescendo to Drummond, who rose and bowed deeply. His knowledge of French was microscopic, but such tri- n, w^re made to be, overcome. Ih e Frenchman produced a note book. ‘fVotre nom, M’sieur, s’il vous plait?” “Undoubtedly, mon Colonel,” re marked Hugh vaguely. “Nous erash- ons dans—” -- “He wants your name, old dear,” murmured Jerry weakly. “Oh, does he?” Hugh beamed on .the gendarme. “You priceless little bird! My name is; Captain Hugh Drummond.” And as he spoke, a man sitting dose' by, who had been an amused onlooker of the whole scene,'stiffened suddenly in his chair and stared hard at Hugh. It was only for a second, and then he was once more merely the politely interested spectator. But Hugh had seen that quick lobk, though he gave no sign; and when at last the French man departed, apparently satisfied, he leaned over and spoke to Jerry. “See that man with the suit of hand-me-downs and the cigar?” he re marked. “He’s In the game; I’m just wondering on which side.” He was not left long in doubt, for barely had the swing doors closed behind the gendarme, when the man in question rose and came over to him. “Excuse me, sir,” he said, in a pro nounced nasal twang, “but I heard you say you were Captain Hugh Drummond. I guess you’re ' one of the men Tve c.ome across the water to see. My card.” Hugh glanced at the pasteboard lan guidly. “Mr. Jerome K. Green,” he mur mured. “What a jolly sort of name.” “See here, Captain,” went on the other, suddenly displaying a badge hidden under his^coat “That’ll put you wise. That badge is the badge of the police force of the United States of America; and Uiat same force is humming' some at the moment.” He sat down beside Hugh, and bent for ward confidently. “There's a prom inent citizen of New York city been mislaid, Captain; and, from informa tion we’ve got, we reckon you know quite a lot about his' whereabouts. Whaf about Hiram C. Fotts ?” “What, indeed?” remarked Hugh. Sounds like a riddle, don’t it?” “You’ve heard of him; Captain?” “Few people have not.” “Yes—but you’ve met him recently,"' "said the detective,, leaning forward. “You. know where he is, and”—he tapped Hugh on the knee impressively —“I want him. I want to take him back in cottonwool, to his wife and daughters. That’s why Fm over. on this side, Captain, just for that one purpose.” ‘There seem to me to be a con siderable number of people wander ing around who share your oDinion about Mr. Potts,” drawled Hugh. ‘H e must be a popular sort of cove.” ‘Popular ain’t the word for it, Cap tain," said . the. other. “Have you got him now?” ■ “In a matter of speaking, yes,” am swered Hugh, beckoning to a passing waiter. “Three Martinis.” lrWhere is he?” snapped the detective eagerly. Hugh laughed. “BeingI wrapped up in .cottonwool hy somebody, else’s wife and daugh ters. You Were a little, too quick, Mr. Green; you- may be all you say—on the oilier hand, you may not. And these days I trust no one.” The< American nodded his head in approval ■ - Quite right," he remarked. “My motto—and yet I’m going to trust you. Weeks ago we heard things on the other side, through certain channels, as to a show which, was on the rails overe here.” Hugh nodded. “Then Hiram Potts got. mixed up in it; exactly how, we weren’t wise to. But it was enough to bring me over here. Two days ago I got this cable.” 'He' produced a bundle of pgpers, and handed one to Drum mond. “It’s In cipher, as you see;. I’ve put the translation underneath.”. Hugh took the cablegram and glanced at it. It was short and to the point:. “Captain Hugh Drummond, of Half Moon street, London, is your man.” He glanced up, at the American, who drained' his cocktail with the air of a man who is satisfied with life. “Captain Mugh Drummond of Half Moon street, London, is my man,” he chuckled. “Well, Capfaln, what about It now? WUl you tell me why you’ve come to- Paris? I guess it’s" something, to do with the business Fm on.” Fof a few moments' Hugh did not reply, and the American seemed in no hurry for an answer. Some early arrivals for dinner sauntered through the lounge and Drummond watched them idly as they passed. The Ameri can detective certainly seemed all, right, but. T . . A Casually, his glance rested on a man sitting just opposite; reading the paper. He tooji In the short, dark, beard—the immacu late, though slightly foreign evening clothes; evidently a- wealthy French man giving a dinner party in the res taurant by the way the head gaiter was hovering around. And then sud denly his eyes narrowed, and he sat motionless. - '. “Are yon interested In the psycholo gy of gambling, MfI Green?" he re marked, turning to the somewhat astonished American. “Some people cannot control their eyes or their mouth if Uie stakes are big; others cannot control their hands. For in- “Righto, Old Bean!" Returned the VVaiterl "but Don't Hope. for Too Much," stance, the gentleman opposite. Does anything- strike you* particularly with regard- to him?” The detective glanced across the lounge. ‘H e-seems to like -hitting his knee with - his left hand,” he said, after a-short inspection. “Precisely.” murmured Hugh. “That why I came to Paris." 'is CHAPTER IX. |n Which He Has a Near Shave. ONE. “Captain, ’ you have me guessing.” The American bit the end off anothei cigar, and leaned, back In his chair. “You say that swell Frenchman-Wlth the waiters hovering about like fleas round a dog’s tail is the reason you came to Paris. Is he kind of-friend- Iy with'Hiram-C. Potts?” Drummond laughed. “The. first time I met Mr. Potts,” he remarked, “that swell Frenchman was just preparing'to put a thumb screw on his second thumb.” “Second?” The detective looked up quickly. “The first had been treated earlier in' the evening,” answered Drummond quietly.- “It was then that I removed your millionaire pal.” The other lit his cigar deliberately. -“Say, Captain,” he' murmured, “you ain’t pulling my leg by any chance, are you?” “I am not,” said. Drummond short ly. “I was told, before I met him, that the gentleman over there was one of the boys. . . . He is, most distinctly. In fact, though up to date such matters have not been much in my line, I should put him down as a sort of super-criminal. I wonder what name he is passing under here?” The American ceased pulling at'his cigar. - “Do they vary?” “In England he is clean-shaven, pos sesses: a daughter, and answers to Carl Peterson. ' As he: is at present I should never have known him, but for that little trick of his." . “Possesses a . daughter!” Fpr the first time , the- detective ,displayed traces of excitement. “Holy Smoke! It can’t be him!” “Who?” demanded Drummond. ' \ . But the other did not answer.-. Out of the comer of his eye he was watch ing three men . who had- just joined the subject of their talk, and on his faee was a dawning amazement. He waited till the whole party had gone, into the' restaurant, then, throwing -aside his caution, he turned excitedly on Drummond. “Are you certain,” he. cried, 'That that’s the man who has 'been monkey ing with Potts?1’ ^ .. “Absolutely,” ,said . Hugh. “He rec-. ognized me; whether he thinks I rec ognized hint or not,-I don’t know.” “Then what,” remarked the de tective, “is he doing here dining with Hocking, ouE cotton trust man; with Steinemanfi, the German coal man; and. With that other guy whose face -is familiar, but whose nam e-I can’t place? Two of ’em at any rate, Cap tain, -have got more -million? than we’re ever likely to . have thousands,” Hugh stared at the American.

H es a genius; he’s the goods. Gee!” he whistled, gently under'his breath. -“If we could only- lay him by the heels.” , For a while he stared in front of him, lost in his dream of pleasant anticipation; then, with a short laugh, he pulled himself together. “Quite a few people have thought thq. same, Captain,” he remarked, “and there he Is—still drinking high balls. * “You say h e. was with a crowd of revolutionaries last night. What do you, mean exactly?” "Bolshevists, Anarchists,- members of the' Do-no-work-and-bave-all-the- money brigade,” answered Hugh. .“But excuse me a moment.' Waiter.” A man who had been " hovering round came up promptly. “Four of ’em, Ted,” said Hugh in a rapid undertone. “Frenchman with a beard, a Yank, and two Boches. Do your best.” - “Right-o, old bean!” returned the waiter, “but don’t hope for too much.” He disappeared unobtrusively into the restaurant, and Hugh turned with a laugh to the American, who was staring, at him In amazement, “Who the devil is that guy?” asked the detective. “Ted Jernmgham—son of Sir Pat rick ingham, England,” answered Hugh, still grin: ning. “We may be crude in our methods, Mr. Green, jjut you must ad mit we do our best Incidentally, if you want to know, your friend Mr. Potts is at present tucked • between the' sheets at that very house. He went there by airplane this morning.” He waved a hand toward Jerjy. “He was the pilot.” ' The American was shaking his head a little dazedly. “We've got to get busy' on what yopr friend Peterson's little worry is; we’ve then got to stop it— some old how. Now, does noth ing sort of strike you?” He looked keenly at the soldier. “Revolution aries, Bolshevists', paid agitators last night; international financiers this evening. Why, the broad outline of the plan is as plain as the nose on your face; and it’s just the sort of game that man would love. . \ .” The detective stared thoughtfully afc the end of his cigar, and a look of' comprehension began, to dawn on Hugh’s face. “Great Scott! Mr. Green,” he Said, “i’m beginning to get you. What was defeating me was, why two men like Peterson and Lakington should be mixed up with last night’s crowd.” “Lakington! Who’s • Lakington ?’’ asked the other quickly. “Number Two in the combine,” said Hugh, “and a nasty man.” . ‘Well, we’ll leave him out for the moment,” said the American. “Doesn’t it strike you that there are quite a number of people in this world who would benefit if England became a sort of second Russia? ' That such a tiling would be worth" money—big money? That such a thing would be worth paying through the nose, for? It would have to .be done properly;" your small strike here, and your small strike there, ain’t . no manner of use.' One gigantic syndicalist strike all over, your country—that’s what Peterson’s, playing for, 111 stake my bottom dol lar. How he’s doing It is another mat ter. But he’s in with the big finan ciers : and he’s using the tub-thump ing Bolshies as tools. Gad! It’s a big scheme”— he puffed twice at ,his cigar—“a dumed big scheme. Your tittle, old country, captain, is, savin; one, the finest on God’s earth; but she’s in-a funny; mood. She’s sick, like most of us are; maybe she’s a tittle bit sicker than a, good many people ' think, But Itireckon Peterson’s cure won’t do any- manner., of good, except ing to himself and those blamed cap italists who drev putting up the dol-- lars.” “Then where the , devil , does Potts come in,” said Hugh, who had lis tened intently to every word the Am erican had said. “And the duchess of L'ampshire’s pearls?” . “Pearls I” began the American, when the restaurant -door opened, suddenly and Ted Jernlngham emerged. He. seemed to be In a'hurry, and Hugh half rose in his chair.' Then he,sat back again, as with miraculous rapid-' ity a crowd of infdriated head waiters and other great ones appeared from nowhere and surrounded Jemingham. Undoubtedly this was not the way "for. a waiter to leave the hotel^-even if he had just- been discovered as an impostor, and sacked on the spot. And undoubtedly if he. had been a waiter, 1 this' large body, of scandalized beings would have removed him expeditiously- through some secret buttery-hatch, and dropped-him on the pavement out i of a back entrance. Just onDQslte -Huah he halted, and In a clear voice addressed no one ii particular: “You're spotted. Look out. Legder at Godalming.-- Then, engulfed once more in the crowd, he continued his majestic pro gress, and finally disappeared .a tittle abruptly from view. - . “Cryptic," murmured the American,- “but some lad. Gee! He had that bunch guessing.” “The ledgeF" 'at Godalmlng,” said Hugh thoughtfully. “I watched'Peter son, through the skylight last night, getting gay with that ledger. I’m think ing we’ll have to look inside it, Mr. Green. What about a littie dinner at Maximls? I’m thinking we've found out ail we’re likely to find, until -we can get to that ledger. And thanks to yOur knowing those birds, Mr. Green, our trip to Paris has been of considerable value.” ’ The American nodded. “I guess Fm on,” he remarked slow ly; “but, if you take my advice, cap tain, you’ll look nippy tonight. I wouldn’t ,linger around corners admir ing the mud. Things' kind o’ happen at comers." • TWO, But on this -particular evening the detectivejproved wrong. They reached Maxim’s without mishap, they enjoyed an excellent dinner, , during which the American showed himself to be a bom conversationalist, as well as a shrewd man of the world. And over the cof fee and liquors Hugh gave him a brief outline of what had taken place since he first got mixed up in the affair. The American listened In silence, though amazement- shone on his face the story proceeded. Only when restaurant, did he sum up the matter as he saw It “A tough proposition, captain—d—d tough.

At present a great number of them are to be found in the stubble in the maggot or flax seed stage, and from the.adult flies will develop in the fall and lay their, eggs upon whatever wheat may be found at that time. This damage may be prevented or materially lessened by two methods of procedure: It may be avoided by sowing wheat at a sufficiently late date in-the. fall so that it will not come up until after .the fall brood has died, andbv preventing the futh- er development of tne fly in the pre- sentstubble. E'rcm..observation and experiment it has been found that the best time, all things considered and for an aver age season, to sow wheat for this locality is from October 15th to Octo ber 31st. There may be seasons when earlier sowing would give better re sults but as a rule wheat sown bet ween these dates will give best re sults. At present we are not so much in terested in the date for sowing as in the control of the fly to be found in the stubble -at present. There are two methods of procedure recomend ed. : The first is to burn over the stubble after harvest. The second is deep plowing before September 1st. A combination of both methods would be better, but one can readily see that the first method is not prac ticable in this locality, consequently we will have to resort to the last method recommended. r The flv as it emerges from the flax seed stage in the fall is a frail insect. If it be buried from four to j * six inches beneath the soil, itwill not • be strong enough’to reach the top •; to deposit eggs on the newly sown wheat - Let me urge’that every acre of in.- „q ^ fested wheat stubb’e that is not grow ing a valuable clover crop, fce dis posed of by plowing under deeply be fore. mid-August- This, should be done in orderto lessen the number of flie,s that will emerge in the fall.

Raleigh, June 15—The state board of equalization in session' here^ today ratified the horozontal reduc tions made by counties in May, and as heretofore indicate in this corre spondence, practically shot revalua tion of 1919 all to pieces.

A formal order is to be issued by the board tomorrow, setting out ‘in legal praseology the action taken to day.

After Seven Years We Again Make Dollars. Washington June 19,—Coinage of silver dollars has been resumed by the mjnt after a lapse of seven years and the work of replacing; the two hundred and seventy nine million standard silver dollars taken from the treasury during the war to sell to Great Britain has been begun.

In the same period corresponding amounts of silver certificates were is sued and federal reserve notes and treasury certificates securning them, retired.
