VOLUMN XXVII. ,MOCKSVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1925.NUMBER 21 Why We Should Be Thankful. Because we live under the best form of government in the world. Because we are at peace with all nations of the earth and because of our independence wield the most influence ot‘ any uation of the worid ; Because no nation has as many liome-owneis and no people enjoy bitter living; conditions Xo nation in the world has greater religious freedom or more facilities for higher education of the coming generation. No land approaches us in nation al wealth and no country has a greater variety of fertile and pro- productive soil. In no other country are there such countless opportunities for ad vancement.and nowhere are wage earners and tillers of the soil enjoy­ ing such comfortable remuneration. No other people enjoy so much entertainment, amusement and re creation Our railroads, telegraphs, tele­ phones, radios, automobiles and road systems are unmatched. Onr richest men exercise a gen­ erosity unequaled in all the world; slums are almost unknown and few th.re are who ever need to go hun­ gry '■ Oui borders are not threatened with with war and never liable to be if we do not become embroiled in questionable diplomacy, ■ We are abundaptly blessed with peace and plenty, and with the means of extending a. helping hand to others less happily situated. We are closily following the pledge .contained in the Declara tion of Independence, ._a__pledge. pt life, fortune and sacred honor in a brotherhood, and a responsibility toward our fellow mail. The United States of America may well offer devout thanks. Says-Youtbs of Country are Going To Devil. In receiving five young candida­ tes for the miu’stery into the North Carolina conference at Fayetteville Thursday, Bishop Collins Denny scored the modern mind and warn­ ed the young men against the tend- ancy of modernism. .He did not inquire, into their faith in the Vir­ gin Birth, he said, would sooner or later go another step and doubt the bodily resurrection. "If you are not men of strong faith the church cannot use you,” he told the candidates. “Those who prate about thing of themselves are apt to have themselves so in the foreground that they have nothing else to think of,” hecontinued. The modern mind,” said the bishop, "is misrepresented.” "It really means a well informed mind and we have had well in­ formed minds since the days of Plato. Today we are living under the shadow of these old philoso­ phers and the cry of the new think e.s for the modern mind does not sit patiently with me. The youth of the country ’is go­ ing to the devil, and their parents do not seem to be able to stop them.” he told the ministerial can­ didates, urging them to look, after the children. He also urged them to live within their means. “Debt has ruined more ministers’ influ­ ence than any other form of vice,” he declared. They were admonish- not to overshadow their ministry with sectarian affairs. i lI have been a^ked many times to discuss economic and polical af­ fairs,.” said the'bishog,.--bitf-I:.caii.-- not no that work and God’s also.” To Mint a ew Coin.

As it is far for us to call at your office for a copy of Blum’s Almanac will you y lease send one to Noah Brock to whose, Indiana home your paper is a welcome visitor each week We notice in’ the last Davie Re­ cord the account of quite an exciting snake adventure of a F. T. Lupton Colorado woman. A few weeks'ago while on a motor trip to the Rocky Mountains. I spent the night in .this little town. It seemed to be a'nice, quiet place of one thousand ione hundred people and is twenty-six miies north east of Denver. Near the town is the old American' Fur, Co., fort built by Gonzales Ludton about 1820, where many Indian battles were fought We arrived at this little town about dark, stretched 'our tent in their neat tourist camp, made ourselves cjmfortable for the night and were s ion fast asleep, not knowing there were so many rattlesnakes in that part of the country. The only trou­ ble we had was with some hungry misquitoes. That night was cold but very plea­ sant, and the next morning was veiy lieautiful indeed. We could see the distant mountains for the first time. N-Jar noon we. passed through Den­ ver on our way to Colorado Springs. Whileherewe visited Pike’s Peak and many other places ot interest. Pikes Peak is 14,109 feethigb. We paid $5 OO each for a trip to the top Therearefifty aix other mountains in Colorado higher than Pikes Peak but Pikes is the highest, one whose summit can be reached by cog rail­ way or auto. - ■ Coloradois certainly a beautiful state, and in th!e irrigated district it is a very productive country. We passed by many acres of sugar beets and beans. InfIndiana this .fall; we are having a great deal. of rain. We have a fine crop of corn but it is hard to get it gathered on account of the rain. The faripers also had' trouble ■ to sow their wheat as because of the wet weather. : . We have had lots of snow cold weather which; is very unusual for the time of year.

At evening when the work of day is o’er, And for a bid of reading I sit down, The reading I do first and -which I like the most Is the paper from my old home town. I know what’s going on back there at home, In Aready_ where I first trod the ground. For news of it I thirst, and always get it first , In the paper from my old home town. I like to think of those I used to know, The boys and girls with whom I once- went ‘round; I am posted on their doings, their travels and their wooings By the paper from tny old home ■ town. At times when I go back and meet old friends, Who tell rue news of Smith, or Jones or Brown, I tell them that I know it, because I read it In the paper from my old home town. If you have moved "away from former scenes . In search of greater riches or re- nown, Tokeepold mem'ries bright and gain a new delight Read the paper from your old home town. — Joseph W. Gannon. Wild Goose Not Made to Eat. (From The Elizabeth City Inde­ pendent.) Now I know what I have aH a- long suspected: a wild goose is not an edible fowl and never was in tended as such. I have tried every known way of cooking a wild goose and the darned thing never 'would come out rignt. I was persuaued to believe that I had never found the right way, and so jiist the other way, and so just the other day I took my troubles to Mi. -Prece Hampton at Waterlily Mr. Hamp­ ton has been living down there with the wild geese until he knows and speaks their language. The Hamptons knowhow to cook wild fowl of every sort. The Hampton household assures me that there is just no way to roast or bake a wild goose and get a dish that’s really fit to eat. The best you can do with a wild goose is to make a stew of it, with lots of turnips, par­ snips, carrots, potatoes, onions and fine herbs in the pot. By disguis­ ing the flavor of the old bird in this way you can make it palatable. You could probably do as well with an old shoe. Personally I think I should prefer the old shoe; I wouldn’t have to take a day off to pick a ton of feathers off an old shoe. The motorist who tries to beat the train to a crossing may not have much wit, and yet he is likely to become a man of parts dollar, treasury officials are experi menting with a proposed new coin, a combination of gold and silver to take the place of the cartwheel and the dollar bill. Experiments are being made for a coin of smaller size than the pre­ sent $1 ‘ cartwheel” to be distinc­ tive in appearance to prevent it , be ing mistaken for any other coin. It will be a slight larger than a quarter and heavier, because of the gold. A gold centfer with a rim of silver is ing considered. Banking and merchandising inter ests which handle large Bums of money have indicated to the treas­ ury that such a substitute for the dollar bill would be very desirable Those who prefer bills will still be able to get them, but the treasury is determined to put some of th “dollar exchange” business on metalic basis. In considering the new coin, offi­ cials of the mint declare dollar^ composed entirely of gold would be too small and the yellow metal would not withstand the wear and heavy usage to which the. dollar is subjected, whereas, an alloy would Thevrecourse to metal coins follow­ ing an experiment for the reduction of the reduction of the dimensions ■if the present bills by two-thirds or three quarters, but it was found I hat the saving in printing and hand ling cost and in the consumption of papeyr was merely nominal and not enough, to offset the cost of chang­ ing machinery in the government bureau of printing. The hard usage to which paper dollars are subjected more than doubles'the cost of currency pro duction by the United States. The dollar bill is the common laborer of American currency. Workman of all kinds carry them in their pockets while they work and the bills are soon soiled by oil, grease, dust and grime. Senate Drinkers. At the recent five day conference of the Anti-Saloon League in Chi­ cago, at which there was much speaking, there was very much lambasting, in plain language, of public officials especially at Wash­ ington, who violate the constitu­ tion and the laws tuey helped to make are sw6rn to uphold. Senat- McKinley apparently felt the necessity for coming to the defence of the Senate, and so. he declared that there was improvement—that the "habitual dirinkers” in the Se­ nate could now be numbered on the fingers of one hand. Five Senators then, drink regularly a!nd constant buying their supplies in violation of law, and offering defiance to the constitution they are under pledge o uphold. That is bad1 enough if that was all. But Senator McKin ley didn’t mention the number who drink when they can get it. But it is up to the folds back home, they prefer that sort, as some them do, there isn’t anything to be said about it; that is, if the peo­ ple deliberately choose a law vio lator for the public service, the man chosen has a perfect right feel that hisconduct isn’t objection able-, if it isn’t approved.—States^ ville Daily.

Goodbye Solid South. The Charlotte Observer’s Ral eigh correspondent says that Jim my Walker, the Tammanyite and Romanist, recently elected mayor of New York, is coming south sell that demagogue, Romanist and Hckerdick, Al (cohol) Smith, .to the South as a Democratic presi deutial candidate, and asserts that North Carolinians are now more favorable towards this big political trickster than heretofore. Suffice to say that-if Al. .Smith is natned the Democratic candidate for pre­ sident, C al-1Cooliege will be re­ elected Dy the greatest popular vote ever recorded and the solid south will not only be broken, but pul verized-^-Carolina Watchman. .

' XMAS MONEY FORYOU SearchY our A tticfor Fortunes inOldConfederateEnvelopes Among the old letters of many South- em families are hundreds of very rare stamps and envelopes. Many have been found and sold for small fortunes. Single envelopes have been sold for as high as §2,000, and many have brought upwards of $100 each. It sounds “fishy,” but it’s true. They are* valuable because they are rare. And -they are rare, not because there are only a few, but simply because most of them have remained stored away and forgotten, in old trunks and closets. Make a thorough search through your attic or store room for these old war letters. * Fortunes in rare stamps or franked envelopes have been found in old trunks which no one ever dreamed, contained anything of value.- Keep the letters if you wish, but send the en­ velopes to M r.. Harold C. Brooks, Box 223, Marshall, Michigan, and he vail immediately write you, stating then value. In sending them to him you are . not obliged to sell unless his offer meets with your approval. Anything not pur­ chased he m il return in good order. Mt. Brooks, who is mayor of his cityv is a private collector and has paid thousands of dollars for old envelopes. Although the rare issues are especially desired he also buys many of the com­ moner kinds. Many people in this way are getting Qiristmas money with very little trouble and no expense. s The First National Bank of Marshall, Mich., writes: uMr. Brooks has been in business here for twenty years. You. will make no mistake when you recom­ mend him to your readers as worthy of the fullest confidence, both financially and personally.’• Mr. Brooks states that there are so many different stamps which are similar in. appearance he cannot quote values, from written descriptions, but must see the envelopes. There are, for example, ten different Confederate government stamps bearing: the portrait of Jefferson Davis, and many local stamps or stamped envelopes are very much the same in appearance. The same is true of U. S. issues, the heads of Washing­ ton or Franklin being used on different stamps.- Mr. Brooks does not buy -loose 6tamps, stamp collections, coins or Con­ federate money. Stamps should not bs cut from the envelopes and no dates written on. He is fully acquainted with all issues even though the postmark may show no year date. Those^ espe­ cially wanted are Confederate issues, but he also buys U. S., Canadian, Hawaiian, and certain foreign stamps provided they are on the original en­ velopes and mailed riot later than 1865. Vlf envelopes ar$ sent in a bunch tfley should be carefully packed in a cardboard box to protect them from damage, while in the mails. If you have reason to believe your envelopes ars of special value send-them by registered or injured mail. If you • have no old letters written during or before the Civil War, show this notice to your friends*—especially thpse whose fami­ lies have lived in the/same home for several generations. Many old families, old .banks and law firms still haye stored away hundreds of letters, wait­ ing to be burned or sold for large sums. Before destroying such envelopes or folded letters investigate Iheir value. Mr. Brookst address is as follows: HAROLD C. BROOKS, -Box 223, Marshall} Mich.

School teachers should not dis­ cuss partisan politics in the school room, rcinenibering at ail times they are talking to.chiidreti whose parents belong to different political parties. It is presumed that some teachers tlimk Wooclroiv Wilson the greatest nun that ever occupied tne Presidential chair, while others think Abraham Lincoln was the greatest President this country has produced since George Washing­ ton.

The attackers escaped. The police had been spending the last five nights in the shop. Shortly after midnight while they were talk­ ing to five loungers in the shop the quartet entered and the shooting be­ gan. It was thought the policemen had been assigned to the shop#on a iip that Durgin might visit there. James Carroll, policeman, and Ben Custer, a taxi-driver, were killed, James Henry, the other policeman, probably fatally wounded and Gus Soeldner, a lounger, slightly injured. Henry said Durkin was one, of the men. Youth and Wife in Suicide Pact. Miami, Fla.—C- Alfred Paquete, twenty-two, formerly of Lynn, Mass., shot and killed his wife in their room at a local hotel and then committed suicide. ..Both died instantly. A note found by police indicated a suicide pact, they said. Police stated Paquette, a registered pharmacist, had come to Florida “to reform." A note left by the young man, they stated, contained state­ ments to the effect that he had been a heavy drinker.

The husband and father escaped with tour children and -was prevented from saving the mother and two other children, who are believed to have been rendered unconscious by smoke when the roof fell. China on Verge of Revolution. Peking—The “Christian general,” Feng Yu-Hsiang, served !public notice on Marshal Chang Tso-Lin1 once all- powerful ruler of Manchuria, to quit LHJLltWO UJ fight. Feng sent the Muk­ den leader a message urging him to retire. Otherwise, he declared, he would attack immediately. Peking remained outwardly calm in spite of this culmination of the spectacular march of events which has made the anti-foreign Feng virtu­ ally master of Peking and threatens to eliminate Chang from political arena. Although dispatches from Mukden said CJjang Tso-Lin was determined to fight,- to the last, other defections among his followers were reported,- making hft stand seem like a forlorn hope. Meanwhile, an additional divis­ ion and other troops of the “Christian General’s” forces were taking their, places in the garrison of Peking, tight­ ening the grip of Feng on the capital. His early arrival in Peking from his headquarters at Kalgan is considered probable. Four Dead, Three Hurt in Wreck.

POLICEMEN BEATEN IN UPROAR AT NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY. .Evanston, 111.—Celebrating- their football team’s achievements, North­ western university students threw this staid college town into an up­ roar by burning an unoccupied fra­ ternity house and starting severest smaller .fires and battling policemen and firemen who attempted to inter­ fere'. The . crowd which grew to 3,000 men and women students, was dissuad­ ed from firing the oid field stands when Tim Lowry, football captain, pointed out that the new stadium might not be completed for next fall. The entire police force was called out and in several affrays a few stu­ dents and officers were beaten severe­ ly. The policemen fired several shots but no one appeared to have been hit. Mayor Charles H. Bartlett, who had been aiding the policemen all evening, was struck over the head with a club and (Stunned as he went to help a po­ liceman guarding a fire hose. The po­ licemen suffered two broken ribs when he was beaten by students. The Celebratiqn started when the firing of the old P h i' Kappa Sigma house, off the campus.. When firemen arrived, their hose was " taken from them and the water turned on them. Finally, the police resorted to tear bombs, which proved efficious as long as the supply lasted. Then a pitched battle ensued and the students rushed for the football field. Captain Lowry arrived with several automobiles of .policemen as students were pouring gasoline on the/ wooden tiers. This attempt frustrated, the crowd milled back to Fountain square in the business district where they built a huge bon fife bn the intersect­ ing street car tracks. Firemen who put out the fraternity house fire at­ tempted to extinguish the bonfire and precipitated another fight between stu­ dents and policemen and firemen. TO PURCHASE THIRD . LIBERTY ISSUE DIRECT FROM HOLDERS. - Washington.—The treasury will at tempt for the first time in’ modem financing the experiment of- dealing directly with the holders' of govern­ ment securities in making, purchases of bonds for retirement from the sink­ ing fund. . Between now and December 10, the treasury announced it will buy bonds of the third liberty loan up to fifty million dollars as. the first step in de­ termining the feasibility of an arrange­ ment between government security holders and the government itself. It will buy at the lowest prices Offered, but will pay as high as IOi 1-2 and accrued interest. Payment for the bonds accepted will be made Decem­ ber 29. Under the plan, the bondholder will deposit his security with a -bank or trust company as the means of set; ting in motion machinery which will stop the treasury’s acceptance results in payment direct to tie owner. Brok­ erage charges thus will be eliminated both for the security holder and for the tr e a s u r y /. In arranging for the experiment, the treasury gave weight to the thought that a wider field for disposal of gov­ ernment securities will be produced by the building up of a close under­ standing between the government and the holders of its obligations, which now total more than $20,000,000,000. • TWO MONTHS OLD BABY * EATS SOLID FOOD. * Wilmington--A. two-months^ild * * baby that walks and eats the-food * * usually assimiliated by adults is * * that of T.

Washington.—Winter is the best time for star gazing, says the Ameri­ can Nature association describing the beauties of the heavens during De­ cember. . Five stars of the first magnitude will be visible in the eastern sky dur­ ing the last month of the year, and Vanus will appear at her best. “W e will find in the east Taurus, The Bull," says the association, “with its well-known groups of the Pleiades and Hyades and the ruddy Aldebaran, that represents the Eye of the Bull, and there is the magnificent Orion with its many stars of first and second manitude. “To the north of Orion will be the brilliant Capella,' The Goat, with her small .kids or Hoedi close by forming a small triangular graup that, makes it easy- for us to identify this bril- linat star. Castor and Bollux the Twins, In Gemini, will be well in view in the northeast. “Venus will be a magnificent ob­ ject in the southwest for about three hours after, sunset. AU during Decem­ ber Venus will parade a brilliance that reaches a maximum January 2. “Mercury passes from east to west of the sun on December 11 and after that will be in the morning sky and may possibly be seen in the south­ west before sunrise the last few days of the month when it will be at its greatest distance west of the sun. Satufgp and Mars will be . in conjunc­ tion on. December 15. In the north, Cassiopea is, passing to the west of the meridian though it is still close to the northern horizon to be seen to advantage. The' Great Square in Pega­ sus covers a large space in the west­ ern sky and will be found.about half­ way between the horizon and the zenith.” Commits Suicide. Cambridge, Mass.—W illiam R.

'W ashington—Figures compiled by the bureau-of the census here show that-North Carolina prior to Novem­ ber 14 ginned 945,888 bales- of cotton in 1926 and 540,126 in 1924., Here are some of the figures for counties: Mecklenburg, 18,977 in 1925, Against 13,465 in 1924; Rutherford, 11,338 and 10,374; Anson, 22,283, and 16,389; Robeson, 55,249, and 23,513; .Halifax, 50,319 and 15,337; Johnston, 62,516, and 34.817: Iredell, 13.967. and 8.308. Chicago.—Building construction for the first ten months of 1925 has ex­ ceeded the total for 1924 and broken records in most sections of the coun­ try, but there is still scarcity of suit­ able housing for persons of Average means. The statement was made in.the semi­ annual report of the American Con­ struction council, issuedy through its president, Franklin D, Roosevelt. “The large volume of residential construction has not yet m et thd coun­ try’s real housing need,” the report said. “City residential construction has been largely of higher priced apartment hotels and apartments of a speculative nature and, while subur­ ban home developments of the colony type hav.e been very active, they have too frequently ^been high in price or very inferior in quality. Farm homes, where the owner's individual taste pre­ vails, show a tendency toward modern home improvements and home utili­ ties in an increasing degree." Proper planning, sounder financing and better construction of homes is a need today, and the public must learn the essentials of right construction and insist .that they be put into practice, the report said. Aside from residen­ tial work, public improvements and Utilities and commercial buildings and institutional structures have been go­ ing up in increasing numbers. '4Work contracted for and contem­ plated for winter schedule,” the report said, “is much greater than usual this time of the year, showing the growing belief of the public in winter work when it is properly conducted. “Labor productivity has increased and thus helped to reduce actual costs and the stabilizing influence of this condition, it maintained, will be very helpful for the future. Material prices have also • continued relatively stable as a whole. Money for ouilding pur­ poses has been readily available in most localities. Tax on Incomes Larger in 1924. Washington.—Despite a reduction in rates, treasury receipts from taxa­ tion on personal incomes for 1924 are greater by $25,482,680 than for the pre­ vious year. The total personal tax payments for 1924 is $689,134,185, pr a gain of 1.7 per cent over taxes received on the 1924 incomes. The growth in the total receipts occurred,' notwithstanding a decrease of nearly 400,000 in the'num- ber of returns filed which, to Septem­ ber-30 last, was 7,289,481. Thousands of individuals found themselves aligned in new classes of incomes and subject to different rates of tax as a result of the changed ex­ emption, personal credits and rates made effective by the present law, al­ though the number of persons report­ ing incomes of $1,000,000 and over numbered 71, in each of the years 1923 and 1924. This class in 1924 in­ cluded three with incomes above $5,- 000,000, three between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000, tour between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000 in 15 between $2,000,000 and $3[o00,000, 13 from $1,500,000 to $2,- 000,000, and Sg from *$1,000,000 to $1,- 500,000. Deductions for losses in prior years amounted to $45,000,000 for losses in 1922, $34,000,000 in 1923, and only $15,- 759,000 in 1924. One-Eighth of Income Paid in Taxes. New York.—Twelve and a half cents of every dollar of the combined in­ come of the American people during the past year went into -axes, accord­ ing to a study in taxation made by the national industrial conference board. The total bttrden of' federal, state and local taxes has nearly doub­ led in proportion to national income since 1913, the board says, rising from 6.9 per cent in 1913 to 12.5 in 1924. “While the Increase of taxation in proportion to national income. In 1924 in part was due to increased state and local tax levies, it was I n .part, how­ ever, also due to a decrease in nation­ al income during that year,” the board points out. OPINIONSVARY E GARNER BELIEVES REDUCTION CpULD HAVE BEEN / $400,000,000. / Washington.—Minority views on the non-partisan fax bill unanimously or­ dered reported by the bouse ways and means committee will be presented to the house,- It was. announced by Rep­ resentatives Rainey, Illinois, and Hull, Tennessee, democratic members of the committee. • DifferiDg opinions on some of the provisions of the measure were set forth in statements issued by Repres­ entatives Mill, republican, New-York; Garner, of Texas, ranking democrat on the committee and Mr. Hull, AU, how­ ever, praised the general provisions of tbe-bill and the non-partisan spirit In which it was worked out, conceding compromises were necessary. Several members have indicated they would seek more changes in the measure when it is considered by the house. Mr. Garner said he thought the total reduction provided by the meas­ ure could have ^been made $400,000,- 000 instead of $336,000,000. He favor; ed complete nation of the automobUe passenger car levy which was reduc­ ed from 5 to 3 per cent and repeal of the admission taxes on motion pic­ tures and baseball., Mr.- Mills regretted that the meas­ ure did not provide for repeal of the inheritance tax instead of a reduc­ tion, but endorsed elimination of the provision for publicity o f income tax returns. Mr. Hull opposed the $1,000 addi­ tional exemption for married persons and advocated that the maximum In­ heritance tax be cut only to 25 per cent Instead of to 20 per cent as pro­ vided by the bill. If this were done, he said, all the “war and nuisance taxes" could be wiped out and greater relief given to persons with incomes between $25,000 and $80,000. Federal Charge Against Woman. Greensboro.—Slated for trail at the December term of federal court here, western North Carolina district, is the case of a woman who is charged with using a matrimonial advertisement— but not for the purpose of obtaining a husband. - “Using the mails to, defraud” is the charge brought against the defendant, Minnie Jackson, of Greenwood, S. C., It being charged that she would cor­ respond with men and get them to send her money to pay her railroad tare to some agreed upon point, to look over the matrimonial inclined males.

New York.—Directors of Island Creek Coal company declared a divi­ dend of $.5 a share oh the common stock and the regular quarterly dis­ bursement of $1.50 a shore on the pre­ ferred, both payable Januafy I to hold­ ers of record December 15. For seven previous quarters the regular common dividend of $2 and an extra of $1 had been paid. Directors of General Railway Sig­ nal company declared an extra divi­ dend of 25 cents a share on the com­ mon stock which recently was split up five for one and placed the stock on an annual dividend basis of $4 a share with an Initial quarterly pay­ ment o f $1.

It Just supposition. Nobody knows; that is, the public doesn’t know. But what is their happiness? An ox-like acceptance of the routine. Breakfast, work; dinner, work; sup­ per, work; sleep; breakfast—the whole circle over again. I couldn’t stand it, Frank; there’s no use pretending I could. Fd—I’d run away with some one!” “Jean!” “Yes, I know wliat you’re thinking. But it would break the routine, any­ way; it wouldn’t be that way I would lose my soul; perhaps that way I might save it.” “You’re a strange girl, Jean.” “Yes? After all these years? I am so glad. As long as I am strange you will be interested in me. That’s the trouble with you; you’re not strange. I know all about you. And I wouldn’t be your housekeeper for life for the sake of being your lover for a week." “Jean!” “Shocking, isn’t it? But true. Don’t you know that’s what happens, nearly always? It must happen, unless there are new points of interest always aris ing. I have the misfortune to think, and so I see these things in advance, and try to shield you from them.” “The misfortune to think?” “Of course. Otherwise I could ac­ cept the ox routine and grind out my soul in the treadmill of three meals a day. I suppose that’s what people call morality—ideal w ife and mother, etc. I’d run away from it all.” I, too, punched the snow with my heel. “I never heard you talk like that, Jean," I said at length. “I didn’t think you thought—along those lines. You wouldn't excuse people who run— who disregard their marriage vows?” “The first of which is to love,” she siiot back. “When that fails, all fails. Why make a mockery of it?” “But I would love you. always—al­ ways. You would be to me the only— the only possible girl in the world!” Slowly she turned her face toward me; she had been giving me an op­ portunity for profile study during this dialogue. Her eyes found mine; her lips—in tliein again I saw the rose- leaf beauty of her childhood. When she spoke her voice was low and tremulous and musical. “You dear boy! You think .so. I only wish it were true I” The last words came with a catch In her breath, I thrust forward and clasped her hands in mine. “You mean that? Oh, Jean, if you do......................” “Yes, I mean it. That is the great difficulty. It isn’t true. You wouldn’t love me always. I wouldn’t always be the only girl." “Jean, you would. I swear it I” “Then I must reverse it. I wouldn’t love you always. You wouldn’t always be the only man in t t e 'world." My spirit, which had gone pounding upward, fell like a burst balloon. “Why?” I demanded. “Because your vision is too small. Because it is bounded by the corner posts of Fourteen. Because I couldn’t live penned up in such a—a pasture." “You’d he breaking out—toward sec­ tion Two.” “Frank!” It was her turn to ex­ claim. “Yes, toward section Two. You’ve done some plain talking, Jean; now it’s my turn. It is Spoof that has up- Bet your mind—put all these wild no­ tions in your head. It is Spoof that you are thinking about, not me. I sup­ pose you think you could marry him and not drop into the routine; you would be less an. ox, as you put it, on Two than on Fourteen. Perhaps that ■would be best, after ail. Perhaps if you were fenced in on Two, you might break out toward Foprteen!” “Frank! Please don’t be unkind— and unfair. . . . I am thinking about Spoof, and it Is just because he is not bounded by section Two. You and Jack and Jake think he’s.a ’green- hom, and you play your silly little tricks ori him, but his world is the world, and yours is Fourteen, and Jack’s is Twenty-two. and Jake's is— whatever his section is. He’s so big. so big!” “I see. Spoof has traveled more than we have. He has seen more of the world. He has met more people. And so he: is big! I bet I grow more oats to the acre than he does—you should see his plowing; looks like— •be guess and be d—d,’ as Jake says.” “Quite an elegant remark; suitable to Jake, hardly to be expected from you. And your argument would be ir­ resistible—if I were an ox.” “You’re sharp, aren’t you? Well, something to eat is not to be despised even by big people, like you and Spoof. Even the soul, which you are afraid of losing on Fourteen, will pick up and leave you on Two, unless you feed that body In which it lives. That's what the soul itself thinks about people, who don’t hustle for a living; it gets up and leaves tlibm.” “Good for you!” cried Jean,. “You are actually thinking. I have goaded you into it. Now—where are we?” “We’re at Spoof. You say you could Jove me for a week, and him iorever.” “I didn’t soy that” “You as much as said it. Spoof may, have advantages—I admit his travel, and all that—but will those things keep him big? Won’t section Two bound him In a year or so, just as you say Fourteen bounds me now? Is he different clay; less ox, more soul?” “Section Two can never hold Spoof, because he—because he is big, don't yon see? He reads, he thinks, he sings, he dreams. No section can bold one who does those tilings.” “Does lie write poetry?" I inquired, innocently. “I—I don’t think so,” said she, not scenting.my trap, “but he is very fond of it. You should hear him read—” ■ “Hear him read ’Come to me. . . . Spoof!” Slie turned to me fairly again. She had withdrawn her hands from mine and was crushing little crusts of snow between her mittens. Now she dropped the snow, shook her hands free of its powdery residue, then linked them about her knee. For a long moment she held me under her eyes without blinking. “So you saw that, did you?” “Jean—I’m sorry. I apologize, i saw it by accident—I couldn’t help that. I could have helped speaking about it. I apologize.” Then her eyes dropped. “It was very foolish.” she murmured. “You have a right to be amused." “But I’m not amused.” I protested. “And I’m not sure it is really foolish. At any rate. I’ll confess something Jean; when I found it I tried to write a poem—to you—but I couldn’t. The only rhymes I could think of were Jean and bean." ‘Splendid! Oh, Frank, I’m begin ning to be afraid—to hope—that I didn't quite know you, after all. Fancy you trying to write poetry—and aboui m e! Let’s write a verse now. I’ll help you." She whipped a mitten from her hand and sat with her fingers lightly drum tning on her lips, summoning the muse ‘You'll have to write it,” I said. “I’ll sign it." ‘AU right I" she exclaimed at length, and turning to the huge drift behind us she traced on its hard surface with her forefinger this inscription; If you will only be my wife,No m atter what the p a s t has been Til take a broader view of life And try to keep you guessing, Jean. "Oh, you used my rhymes!” I ex­ claimed. “But isn't that last line slangy?” I said, when we had it well laughed over and I had added at tin side an idealistic sketch of Jean’s fact under a bridal veil. My drawin; rather lost its point in the fact that I had to explain what it was. “No, not slang—poetic license. That’s a great advantage poets have; any thing that isn't quite good English can always be called poetic license. Now sign it," I signed it in bold, printed letters, and then we fell into silence. “What’s the answer, Jean?" I said at length. “Oh. Frank, I can't give you an an swer—not now. That may have been slang, about keeping me guessing, bui it goes a long way down in one’s na ture. If you would only read, and study, and think, and learn to appre­ ciate beautiful things—" , - • “Oh, Jean, I d o! I appreciate you.” “Bather clever, Frank, but that Isn’t just what I mean. I mean like Spoof: we might as well be frank about it. I’ve seen him watch the sunset in tin pond; watch the colors change and blend and run in little ripples with a touch of breeze as though the water had been stirred with a feather; I’ve seen, him sit for hours watching tin ambers and saffrons and champagnes of tlie prairie sunset, and—" “And that's why he got so little plowing done." “Stop it! And he knows every flower on the prairies, and all you snow is pigweed, and he takes note o; .ittle things, like when I worked a new strip of lace into the yoke of my dress, and when I put a dash of scarle; ribbon in my hat he said it gave m just the touch of color that one. needed on the prairies and it was no wonder that the Red Indians loved color, and how much wiser, In some things, they were than we. and—" “He was spoofing you, Jean.” “He wasn’t.” “Then he was making love to you;” “Perhaps. But it was very nice. You never noticed my lace or my rib­ bon. You didn’t even notice this cap I have on today; I made it out of an old muff, all myself, and I just said to m yselt I wonder if Frank will notice it,’ but you didn’t—” -t ' “I did, too. I saw it first thing, am! I thought how nice it looked on you.” “Spoof would have said how nice I looked under it.’.' “Oh. d—n Spoof!” “Spoof's an artist, Frank. You’re not.” “Nor yet a poet. But I reckon I’ll make a good farmer.” “We thrashed out tlie ox question a while ago. Let’s keep on new ground.” “Very well. l-Iere’s some new ground Wlien ,did Spoof tell you all- these things? I understood Jie hadn’t come into the house all the time we were away.” ' “He didn’t either—hardly; But he rTTTTP, DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N.

Straight-now, Frank, she’s not here?” I turned my open palms toward him. eif only she were!” I exclaimed;'. . . .“When did you miss her,?” ■»Ten—fifteen minutes ago, when I got up. I found my lamp oTit of oil, and I went to her room to borrow hers. She didn’t answer, and I went In. She wasn’t there. Her coat and cap are gone. How she got out without wak­ ing u s!” He turned to a window, peering through a little bare spot In the pane close to the''sash. “Looks like a rough day,” he said, quietly-as though trying to disguise the import of his words. . . . "She's been melancholy of late; trying to hide it, but I could tell. . . . My G—d, she may have been gone four hours!” “Then it’s time we were after her!” I exclaimed, a sudden impulse for ac­ tion bringing me out of my stupor. I shoved my burning porridge to th e back of the stove and rushed to my room to complete dressing. And in my head was pounding one word Spoof—* Spoof—Spoof! “Where?" Jack demanded from the door of my room. !‘What's your guess?” But I was already becoming an artist, that artist that Jean so eagerly sought in me. “Just two places,” I said. "She’s gone to Mrs. 'Alton’s or to Mrs. Brown’s. >1 don’t think she would go to Lucy Burke’s— didn’t know them so well.” Jack's look of. relief was pathetic. I had always thought of-Jack as being in some way my superior, bom to rule while I was born to obey. Suddenly I found him a child in my hands, “You think so?" he grasped at my words. “You think—that’s—where she’s gone?" “Nothing surer. We talked a good deal about Mrs. Alton yesterday,” I added, out of the fullness of my in­ vention, "and she said how lonely Mrs. Alton must be, and that we ought to go over and see her. She’s started worrying over that In the night and it’s used to come over regularly to see that everything was ail right about the place and to have his ‘bawth,’ and be had . tlie handsomest bathing s u it- white and yellow trimmings—and Mar­ jorie and I fixed up bathing suits, too, and we used to go In—” “Together?" “Of course. Only Marjorie only went In once or twice; she said she was affaid of the frogs. . . . Marjorie is a knowing 'girl.’’ “My own sister! And she would conspire. . . .” I crunched a clump of crust viciously under my heel. “Well, seeing that you have con­ fessed, I suppose I should own up, too," I said, after a silence. “I never tofd you that there was a girl out where I worked this summer.” "No? What was she like?" Jean's voice was steady, but I caught a new note in it. It augured well for my first attempt at romancing. “Oh, she was a nice girl, all right. Her folks thought she would make a good ox, but she didn’t quite fall In line. She had that broader vision you set so much on. Sort o’ hinted that she and I might do well running a rooming house at Moose Jaw; they say things are' humming at the,Jaw. Bather suggested—” “Oh. Frank, she never did! . . . Wanted you to marry her, I suppose?" “No. she didn’t just say that. But she’s big. you know; takes a big view of things. Of course, it might have come to that in time. I remember one afternoon It rained and we couldn’t work in the fields and that night she and I went to a dance—” “Does she dance well?” “Oh, quite well. And free. . You know—nothing standoffish, or anything like that. Well, the storm came up again during the night, and we couldn’t get home, and it was only a small farm house so some of us had to sleep in the hayloft, and Nellie said she’d be a dead game sport—” “Now, Frank, don’t tell me any more. I don’t believe it. . . . What hap­ pened next?” "Oli, nothing much. It was about noon when we got home, and the old man was -pretty sore, but I told him I thought a good deal of Nellie and wouldn’t mind marrying her if it came to that, and I asked her to come over iiere and visit us next summer—” “You’re lying, . Frank. Let’s go home." As we walked home in silence, trail­ ing our sleigh, the nip of the late after­ noon stung our cheeks to roses and our breaths trailed behind like the gaseous tail iof a very young and leisurely comet. Jean complained that one of her hands was growing cold so I took the mitten off it and drew the hand down into my deep, warm overcoat pocket, where we took all precautions against fro'stbite. ’ The other hand imd to take a chance, i We walked along the bottom of the gully for shelter from tlie wind which was rising with sunset. As we neared Twenty-two Jean stopped. “Frank, I want to ask you a quqg£ tion,” she said. “There was no truth in that story you told me?” “You care?” “Of course I care. Tremendously.’! “Don’t you want me to be big?" “Not that way. I’ve been talking about intellectual things—spiritual things." . ; “I suppose Spoofs bathing suit, with the white and yellow, is quite spir­ itual?” “That isn’t fair." “Oh yes it is. It is merejy the other ix getting gored.” “Anyway, your story wasn’t true? You made it up to tease me?" “If I answer yqpr question will yoi/ inswOr mine?" “I can’t Frank, I can’t—not now. I haven’t seen Spoof- since Christmas, i’erhaps he’s sick. Perhaps he’s dead. Something awful may have happened.” “His smoke goes up every morning just the same." “Qli, you’ve been watching it, too. But something has happened. I—I can’t answer you now.” At the door of Jack’s house we iiaused again. We were in the shadow there, and as she turned on the step her form swung close to mine. For a moment I seized her. no longer able to clay the semi-Platonic. . . . “But there was no truth in it, _was there?" she whispered. “There was some truth in it,” I con­ fessed, as I turned toward the empty shack on Fourteen. I Si CHAPTER XIV Next morning I was stirring my oat­ meal and water when the door opened and in burst Jack. His attire gave evi­ dence of haste;’he had thrown a pea- jacket about a somewhat incomplete toilet.-, I was about to summon up a jocular remark when something In his face silenced me. "Have you seen Jean?’! he demanded. “No. Why—”- - - “She’s not In her room. Gone. Was there last night—part of the night—” “Sure she’s not in the house?" “Hard to lose her In our twO-by-four. Frank.

Hustle back and finish dressing, and then strike for Mrs. Alton’s. I’ll try Brown's first, then Jake's, then Burke’s. Hustle!" .. ’I It was new business for me to order Jack, but he needed ordering to keep him from utter futility at that mo­ ment. I gave his hand a squeeze add thrust him out of the door. “Now, Mr. Spoof—now for you!” I snapped to myself. I had m revolver, an old rusty weapon which I never used, but which I kept lying around in case of something which I called an emergency. Clearly this was it. I found it and some cartridges and thrust them into my overcoat pocket: then drew it out and studied it with a peculiar sort of fascination. ' “Don't be a fool,” I enjoined myself, as I threw it on the bed. But in a moment I picked it qp again and put it in my pocket. Outside the snow was flying in a sifting Wind from the northwest. It was not a blizzard; it was not even a storm, but it had the threat 'of both. The sun was not up, and the gray light of dawn penetrated the snow waste not more than a dozen yards.' I -studied the wind for a moment, to nrnke sure that it was blowing steadily in one direction; having satisfied my­ self as to tills, my problem—one of: my problems—was much simplified. Car­ rying tlfe wind over my right shoulder I bore off ,toward the south and sec­ tion Two. The trail ,to Spoof's had been entirely obliterated in its weeks of non­ usage. and I could do nothing better than follow my sensfe of direction. It became apparent that the sky was too’ overcast to give me any benefit from the sun, although the gray circle of dawn gradually grew until. the vision would carry a hundred yards or so. For the most part the crust bote me! hut here and there it gave away, and once or twice sent me floundering, on my face. On such occasions I was carefpl to test ihy direction by the wind bdfore continuing. If the wind should veer I had-a-good chance of -wandering off into the wilderness—and the unknown. , . That,, too, was the chance which Jean had taken. It bore more and more heavily upon me as I plodded through that measureless waste : of snow. I had no doubt that she had started for Spoofs; whether she'ever had reached there* was another ques­ tion. She was able to stand his neglect 00 -Iongerjs-She w asVbonnd. to' have It out with him, Just as, yesterday, I had been bound to ' bpve it out with her.’ . . -At m om entsIw Ishedthat she might not find Spoof’s. At mo­ m ents-it. seemed that almost anything was better than that. There was the possibility that she might strike a circle and wander about on these va­ cant sections. ,It was not very cold; she would not freeze until exhaustion overcame her. Possibly even now she was wandering in: these; milky mists, even within earshot of me. “Jean! Jean!” I .cried, raising my voice against the buffeting of the wind, but - it died unechoed In the void of space. There was the possibility that she had-been overcome; that even now she was lying somewhere on the white snow, her white, cold face turned to a white, cold sky, her lithe little body, no longer lithe, forming the occasion for a drift which the sifting wind had al­ ready seized as convenient to its pur­ pose. . . . The sweat trickled down from under my cap and I- pulled it off and let the comforting snow fail on- my forehead. And now I used my eyes more than ever before, to detect, if I might, any object lying on the snow. Dark specks loomed up through the mist, and many a detour I made with pounding heart, to find only a prairie boulder or a lump of tumbleweed blown into a wolf willow - Again, Jean might have reached Spoofs. Tbat was going to be the roost difficult possibility of all. What should I do? I fingered the weapon in .my pocket, but I knew that that was nonsense. If Jean had gone to Spoof she had done so of her own free w ill; she need not account for herself to m e; she might even resent my in­ terference. Spoof might order me ouf as a meddling busybody; he might sub­ ject me to the torture of taking Jean from me before my very eyes. I was even less than Jack; had I been her brother I could have held him to ae- 'countability. But I would not be or­ dered ou t; I would not be abased— Surely I had a right. I was her friend, her neighbor. . . . Her. neighbor. “Perhaps that is. the trouble,” she had kaid.. I fingered my'revolver affectionately. 1 was glad I had brought it. I looked at my watch. It was twenty minutes after nine. I had been fool enough to start without noting the time, and- had no idea how far I had traveled. Surely I should be near Spoofs now. But our engagement had never been quite canceled. Or had it? I tried .to recall, but my mind blurred.' .Once we were engaged; we were to have been married before this tim e; Jean and I were to have been married at Christ­ mas. Then Spoof. I was not clever enough for her. . . . Perhaps Spoof would'be, I thought, and hated myself for thinking it. Perhaps she was right. I was a good bit of a dub. Never read much, never thought much.

Something about keeping her guessing. I was to keep her guessing. Well, she was.-keeping me guessing just now, with a vengeance I I tried to call Jean up in my memory, to visualize her profile, her eyes, her hair,- her lips, the tilting lift of her ankle, the joyous stride of her young, free limbs. It was all a m ist; a .pic­ ture out of focus. It was a nebulous thing, vague, .indistinct, unformed Through and beyond it I saw the gray snow falling eternally. Then about this central figure— if one may call a thing so ethereal a figure—gathered a circle of light, and it grew and glowed and brightened until it haloed about her head. It was Jean I . : (TO BE CONTINUED.) ' 1 H o w T im e s C hiange A good story was told by Rev. Dr. Black at the Edinburgh section of the Scottish Burns club on the occasion- of the annual dinner. Doctor Black, on going to preach in a country kirk, was asked b y -th e ‘beadle, “Ha’e ye your sermon written?" ’ .

Great length of back and keel is especially desirable. The bird should not be too loose feathered. This is generally shown by loose thigh feathers such as are shown by the Cochin. The under line should be fairly straight and long The back should be long and horizon­ tal (level). This, of course, varies with the breed. The Rhode Island Reds have the most level back, while the Leghorns have the most erect. He most desirable top line is the one .which is the most horizontal.

Sim pleInstrum entInvehtedfor f , Driving Different Farm Animals Flap-Jack for Driving. Stock. Flap-jacks, not the edible kind, will save millions of pounds of meat and hundreds of thousands of dollars for the live stock and meat industry. This is the belief of live stock ex­ perts connected with the Institute of American Meat Packers and the West­ ern Weighing and Inspection Bureau. These experts, ’ R. W. Carter, chair­ man of the institute’s committee on live stock losses, and W. J. Embree, chief -veterinarian for the western weighing and inspection bureau, which represents all the larger western rail­ roads explain that a flap-jack is a sim­ ple instrument used for driving live stock, and that its use is more humane and considerably less costly than the use of clubs, whips, pitchforks, and poles for driving animals. Losses from bruises and other Injuries incurred In bringing live stock from the farm to the stock yards represent annually more than five million pounds of meat or several hundreds of thousands of dollars. Makes Loud Noise. The flap-jack—some call it a slap­ jack—makes a loud noise • when it is slapped against an animal, a fence or a building, but does not injure or bruise the animal. The noise which it makes is more effective than blows In inducing live stock to move. Flap-jacks are rapidly coming into use in the various stock-yards, and, ac­ cording to Doctor Embree, and Mr. Cgrter, should be used by every han­ dier of live stock. A flap-jack'for driving live stock ef­ fectively and without bruises is easily' made. The accompanying illustration will show the 'way to make one. . How It Is Made. Take a piece of canvas or any other strong stiff cloth goods about a yard square; lay It flat’on a table and with a scissors cut from the near corners diagonally toward the upper middle of th^ sheet, making a sort of inverted Y-shaped cut. About six inches from the top turn the point of the scissors inward a little. Cut off the two three- cornered pieces, as shown on the small sketch at the right. Then roll or fold the two “wings” inward in one inch, or inch and a half laps. Fold In in­ verted V-sbaped part jn large six-inch laps, working from the outside edges inward. Turn up the little piece at the bottom (marked in dots in the diagram) to bind the end. Then sew the entire length of the flap-jack with strong thread in five or six rows of stitching and bind the six-inch handle part tightly with tape. The finished article is shown in the insert at the left above the table. The flap-jack is more easily made thpn described on paper.

H. Wrifeht of the agron­ omy staff. University of Wisconsin, for this well-known fiber plant. While championing the crop which has won a high place on the cropping lists of four Wisconsin counties, Wright Insists that weed-infested soil must be properly prepared in order to give the hemp a chance. He is con­ vinced that Canadian thistle and quack grass lands cannot be cleaned by seed­ ing them to hemp] if no more than or­ dinary preparation is given before seeding. Wright recommends that such lands be thoroughly worked to destroy the' mat of roots. According to. him, a good way Is to plow the infested soil in the late summer or early fall, then sprlng-tooth it thoroughly and keep it worked until the land freezes. The loosened roots should then be removed by raking and burning. If the land lacks fertility, it should be given a heavyv application of manure in the fall. In the spring, the soil should be worked until the time the hemp is seeded. Good results can then be at­ tained. ' This hemp enthusiast assures that there is no danger of trouble with the hemp itself as a weed, because it is an annual plant and easy to eradicate. “Notions to the contrary are entirely unfounded,” is the conclusion he has reached after extended experience. B u r n in g I s S o m e t im e s P r o d u c e d b y O il S p r a y s ‘ In investigating the burning some­ times produced In using oil sprays, George P. Gray, chief of the division of chemistry of the Ioiva State 'De­ partment of Agriculture, has discov­ ered that the “burn” is not produced by physielal characteristics of the oil, but chemical compounds known to chemists as “cracked Oils.” These are the constituents responsible for the offensive odors from burned ,-gasoline or kerosene and the cutting of engine 'bearings. By treating the oil with sulphuric acid they are removed. The sulphonation test for mineral oils used as insecticides will show the pres­ ence or absence of these “cracked oils.” This, Mr. Gray believes, may lead to the manufacture of oil sprays which will not .burn foliage or fruit when used as sprays. S o ils f o r S w e e t C lo v e r Sweet clover grows on a variety of soils. If your gumbo soil produces other crops 'it 'will produce sweet clover unless there is something es­ pecially different with it in compari­ son with the average gumbo soil; Siveet clover is a good crop to grow on gumbo because it helps to improve it. making it easier to farm. Sweet clover should as a rule be planted early in the spring. It is a good feed for dairy , cows, both in the -form of hay and pasture. S u it a b le P r o t e c t io n t o A v o id W in t e r B e e L o s s Proper winter protection for bees should be more carefully provided by the average beekeeper. -Statistics for Towa show that winter losses of bees, due to carelessness in wintering meth­ ods, often run as high as 18 per cent. This tremendous annual loss could be avoided for the most part if beekeep­ ers would give the matter of wintering more thought. Tivo general methods of wintering are outdoor or cellar wintering. Of these the former method is considered superior. In either method the essen­ tial things to provide are good ven­ tilation, sufficient insulation against wind, protection against rodents and absorption of moisture given off by the bees. . Complete informatloh on wintering bees by several methods as well as much reliable Information on practi­ cally all phases of agriculture is con­ tained in the report of the Iowa api­ arist for 1923. This booklet of nearly 100 . pages was compiled by F. B. Pad­ dock, state apiarist, Iowa State col­ lege, and will be mailed free upon ap­ plication to him. P r o d u c in g A b o r t io n a n d O th e r B r e e d in g D is e a s e s It has been demonstrated very con­ clusively that it is possible to produce abortion and other breeding diseases due to a lack of the proper feeding elements being included in the ani­ mal’s ration. J The University of Wis­ consin In some tests run several years ago demonstrated that certain rations would not - enable the animal to suc­ cessfully reproduce its kind. Yet these same rations, according to our usual feeding standards, were balanced. It was thought for a time that this was due to the fact that certain vitamines were not present in sufficient quanti­ ties; it was determined later that this was not the trouble at all, but that the real trouble was the lack of sufficient mineral matter or ash in these rations. While it is not likely that, under or­ dinary conditions, rations such as were' fed in this experimental work would be Used, there'is no question in our mind that rations and feeding prac­ tices equally as dangerous are prac­ ticed in most sections of the United States at this tim e i F A S m jQ T E S Turnips will withstand hard frost, but freezing and thawing injures them. • • * October shows most feeds down; buying early may save many dollars on the winter’s feed bill. •. ’ * * • z Saving. sometimes means losing; eggs held only a few days develop wa­ tery whites on the way to market and- thereby bring a lower price. 8* *1 ■ * Fresh, clean drinking water should always be provided in the poultry yard.

J.—“Margaret has Started smoking and uslng a lipstick, perhaps not harmful, but where will It lead to?*’ wrote George H. Winters, twenty-two, to his wife’s mother. "Oh, Mother Cowles, if Peg ever needed you, it is now. What can we do to get her on her right bearings again?” Tlie other day police entered the Winters apartment at No. 109 Van Wagenen avenue, to find Mrs. Winters, twenty-one, hacked to death with kitchen knife while above her Iiody swayed her husband, gritting: “I did It, I did it.” through teeth clenched with the pain of a self-inflicted knife wound from which it is said Ue can­ not recover. Worked Two Jobs. / Winters worked days as a clerk in the City Hail station of the New York post office and night in a Jersey radio "I Did It, I Did It."9 store. Before be lapsed into coma he told police he needed both jobs to sup­ port his wife, iiiiuself and Mrs. Win­ ters’ four-year-old son by a previous marriage, Conrad Williams. From his gasping story detectives pieced together the foljowing: Winters returned from work at 3:30 in the morning to find the child asleep aione in the apartment. He went to the flat of Mrs. James MacCrickard and her two daughters, Cecilia and Margaret, in the same building, mid asked for his wife. He was told she ■w as not there. Suspicions, he soaght the patrolman on beat and demanded he search the MacCrickard apartment. The police­ man refused, without a warrant, and Winters went home again. There he found his wife had returned In the meantime from a party, he said, with the MacCrickard girls and two men. Siie smelt of liquor, Winters sobbed. Frenzied, he killed her. The unmailed letter to Mrs. Winters' mother, was found In the apartment. Doctor Restores Part of Tongue Eaten by Microbes Tokyo.—Strange tilings in medicine and surgery are often reported from Japan, but one of the strangest is the recent case of a girl whose three-inch tongue was-eaten up to one inch by microbes. By cauterization, the sur­ geons report, they began to restore one Inch of the organ so that the girl now has a tongue two inches in length. The patient, Miss Sonoke Torli, eighteen years old, found while she was attending school that her tongue apparently was getting shorter. With­ in a few months Uie tongue had de­ creased to such an extent that the girl had difficulty in talking. Sbe consult­ ed a number of doctors/who said they could do nothing' for her. Finally one of the most prominent Japanese sur­ geons decided the tongue was “colon­ ized” by nnknown microbes. He tried cauterization and a "cure” apparently was effected. Japanese scientists say there is no record of a similar case. tI b e .

Caldwell of Momlcello, 111., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed, cruel that so many consti­ pated infants and children had to be kept constantly “stirred up" and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. W hile he knew that constipation w as the cause of nearly all children's little ills, he did not believe that a sickening-“purge” or “physic” every day or'two w as necessary. ' In Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin he discovered a laxative wliich regulates the bowels.

Washington.. — Au aclvan.ce Christmas present for mail carriers and most other postal employes comes from Postmaster General New in the form of an - announce­ ment that no delivery of ordinary mail would be made Christmas Day. From mitlhight, December 24. to midnight, December 25, all postal operations will be suspended ex­ cept the maintenance of special delivery and the “relaying" of the mails so that they will be ready when normal delivery is resumed - It is realised that this experi­ ment is a grea't undertaking,” said Mr. New, “ but it is believed that it;is in line with the sentiments of the public, if this" can be'done without too great loss of service.- “It is confidently hoped that it ^vill succeed and that our large force of workers,in the field may for the first lime have the benefit of a real holiday.” . To make possible the Christmas Shutdown. the "mail early” cam­ paign has been launched already with renewed vigor. Postmasters have been directed to solicit the <.0 operation of newspapers, chambers of Commerce, school teachers, !notion picure hous. s and every pther publicity agent to stimulate co-operation.

There is a point in taxation at which industry tends to break down, and prosperity gives places to hard times and panic. Nothing can prevent such an occurence ex­ cept curtailment of taxes. That is hard to accomplish, because taxes .themselves go to the upbuilding of an:army/of government employes who can swing elections. Federal, state and lo^al governments should be investigated and extraueoiis and heedless activities weeded out. There is 110 other reason 'way to maintain prosperity on a perman­ ent basis.—Ex. Work is never so scare but that some hustlers can always find plen­ ty to do. IN SUPERIOR COURT, A. AS­ H'>rth Carolina Davie County B. R. Bailey, et al. Exrs of W Bailey, dec’sd (J F.

Consequently, great conbestion and delay occurs in large post offices, where they are mailed within a day or two of Christmas. Therefore, if you want your Christmas greatings to reach your relatives and friends on or be­ fore Christmas Day, follow the in­ structions iu the preceding .para­ graph relative to mailing early and be certain of delivery before Christ­ mas.

Parcels and cards '‘Trust Company Benefits Becom­ ing more Popular.” Resources totalling over $165,- 000,000 were reported by North Carolinatrust companies on June 30th.. 1925, according to "Trust Conipaniesofthe United States,” just published by the United States Mortgage and Trust Company of New York. This figue represents gain of more than .$5,000,000 over last year and has an import­ ant bearing on the showing of the South Atlantic group of states. The 2701 reporting companies of the Tnited States had total assets of J5i8,i45,t>73,477, an increase of $2,120,171,230 over last year. De­ posits were in excess of $15,000,- 000,000, an increase of $ 1,800,000 - 000 over last year. President John W. Planten of the United States Mortgage & Trust Company, in analyzing: the figures for 1925, says; 'The position on the Trust Com­ panies, measured iu terms of growth and prosperity, is an accu­ rate index of the standing which they have Won through constantly increasing usefulness and a more highly specialized service to their hosts of patrons. Current conditions and present favoring auspices justify a most optimistic outlook tor this power­ ful branch of our Nation's banking structure.” ‘ Farms Stiil Being Depopulated. Although there has been much effort of late to start a back to the farm movement in America and economists have declared that there is an undoubted tred from city Iile to the farm, statistics furnished by the Department of Agriculture show that the net farm population of the United States has decreased 182.000 in the past year. The rural population of the country is placed at 31.134,coo as against 31,- 316.000 for the year previous The >reud is not the same in all parts of the country. The New England and South Atlantic States showed actual net increases in the farm population, while other sec­ tions of the country showed losses, the greatest decrease in farm popu­ lation, while other sections of the country showed losses, the greatest decrease in farm population being in the-mountain States. Thus, while 2.075,000 persons left the.farms last year, 1,396,000 returned to them, and these, with the natural increase of births over deaths of 497,000, reduced the losis in farm population to 182 000 Although the balance is still in favor of., cityward migration, the figures were held to show a back- to-the-farm movement. In 1922 tne move nent from city to farm was 880.000,. which . was- 516.000 fever than in 1924. while the move­ ment away from the farm was 2,- 000.000, only 75.000 fewer than last year. . .. This country has twice as much cash per capita a9 it had at the be­ ginning of the civil war. but ’steen times as many things to spend it for. The Big And The Little. Governor Morley, of Colorado, was riding with the highway com­ missioner of his state when a traf­ fic officer hailed the car for exceed­ ing the speed limit The Colora­ do governor not only handed over the amount assessed—$19 85—but he complimented tue traffic officer for doing his duty "regardless of the persons involved.” No name is Morley—keep it in mind. He is evidently a man of size, big en- nough'to be trusted with power; big enough to know that rules should set an example of submis­ sion to law; big enough to know that no matter how' high the official station it does not in this country carry with it the privilege of dis­ regarding the law—that the official deserves 110 consideration iu the matter of law humblest citizen. It is safe to say that an official who has'that conception of his position and his duty is a. man of size. We have .instances sometimes-- have had them right here in North Carolina—where officials in high public station, called to taw for the same offense as the governor of Colorado an offense atiy of us is likely to commit, failed to rise to the occasion as the governor of Colorado aid. Instead of commen­ dation the traffic officer Wa1S criti­ cised—was in one case; and in others there was a disposition to treat the summons to court as a matter to be heeded, if heeded ait all, at convenience instead Of a stipulated time, as is required of the ordinary citizen. The official who acts that way but advertises his-littleness, notwithstanding there may be fawning sycophants who contend that a higlier-up is aoove the ordinary regulations to which the common herd are subjected. The most despicable of human traits is the disposition to arrogate to ourselves special privileges; that are denied others under similar condition, and the offense is the more effensive when privileges are demanded as a matter of right, un­ der color of prominence m person al or official station. The folks who would usurp special privileges will bear watching. They are not the right sort Out of respect to any to whom these presents may come, that sort can not be fittingly characterized in a family journal. —Greensboro News. Forgot The Permits. Prohibition enforcement officials have found that several hundred thousand permits for wine-makin allowing a permit holder to make 200 gallons of wine annually,- were isstieu by internal revenue collectors before prohibition was effective and forgotten ,and that same have been utilized in wine manufacture these prohibition days. They will pf course be called in. The permit business is the weakness of prohibi tion enforcement. Official and po litical influence get permits when they shouldn’t issue; that was the undoing of Congressman Langley of Kentucky; and it is morq than probable that permits issued since prohibition was effective have been forgotten or overlooked uninten tionally or otherwise. Certain is permits for use of alcohol have been issued to pefsons who used them to produce bootleg stuff; and it isn’t surprising, in view of the recent revelations of Gov. Pinchot’, of Pennsylvania, as to the abuse of the permit privilege in Philadelphi that prohibition officers ran onto whole trainload of the stuff in that a state a few days ago. —States­ ville.

It has often been thought that the days of the log cabin and open hearth represent when a liberal supply of wood was most necessary-; or if not the earliest pioneer days, the time of rapid settlement being hroiight under the plow, form steads constructed, and new towns appearing on the map. The coun tries of Europe whose social and industrial development runs sqme centuries back of our own use but one-third or one half as much wood per capita as the people of the United States. At first thought this would indicate that the older .ve get as a nation the less depend­ ent will we be updn our forests; but this rule does not fit the Anierican people. The older our States and communities grow, the more tim ber will they require in one form or another, if social and industrial progress are to keep pace with agi. CVVe might think of Florida, as example, representing as highly developed agriculture as one would find in the world. To market tlie present citues crop it takes thirteen million boxes yearly, and each b< x reques five and one-balf board feet of wood. Within twenty years over forty million boxes will be re quired every year to put the south ern citues crop upon the market wholly apart from the quanities of lumber needed in farm improve­ ments. One of the serious pro­ blems that is facing Florida today, is a supply of wood in the futme sufficient to' market their products. Matjy stlbstitutes for wood in one use or another have been devised, arid .yet the demands of the coun­ try for timber are growing all .tire time. We may think that the po­ pulation will decrease or remain the same, but as the population and inventions increase there will be a still greater demand for timber than before, because wood is used in the building of homes than be­ fore the discovery of concrete. More wood is also used in construct­ ing railway cars than before the car or car partly constructed of steel was developed. The United States produces over half of the entire lumber cut of tne world. Itcontainssomefoiir hund­ red and sixty-five millions acres of foiest lands of all kinds, with mil­ lions of iille acres. Idle acres of timber growing land may mean jrist as great a loss to ‘the economic stability of this country in the fu­ ture as idle forms or factions. In other words, if we are to re main a nation of wood users we must become a nation of wood growers. We must see that forest lands uot needed for agriculture should not be allowed -to lie idle but kept at work growing timber, and what lumber we do have we should use more effectively'. After we plant our trees we should help to prevent them from desieses and forest fires which are very destructive. Therefore we should observe Ar­ bor Day more emphatically each year, and not only Arbor Day but every time we destry a ‘ tree we should plant auotlier in its place. If not we will have no forest twen­ ty years from today. GRACE HENDRICKS, Farmington High School, Farmington, N.

(Prepared by the United States Department o f Agriculture,) . The quantity of nectar gathered by .a colony of Uouey bees does not de­ pend merely on the number of bees In the colony during the honey tlpw, says the United States Department of Agri­ culture. It depends, rather, upon the number of bees that are of the proper age to serve as nectar gatherers when the honey floyit opens. Since normally a worker bee, before going to the field, spends the first two or three weeks of its life In duties within the hive, most of the Bees should emerge fropi the brood cells about three weeks in advance of the main honey flow, in order to have the largest possible number of field bees ready at the proper moment. In other words, the queen should reach her maximum egg-laying rate during the period six weeks prior to the honey flow. , , Maximum Honey Crop. Since a colony left to . itself does not usually bring forth the new worker bees at the most advantageous time, a correct understanding of the principles governing brood rearing throughout the year becomes of prime importance to the beekeeper, if he is to liandle his colonies in such a way as to secure a maximum honey crop. The principles are discussed in Department Bulletin No. 1349. prepared by the United States Department of Agrdcultnre after an intensive study of the brood-rearing cycle of the honey bee. Lack of knowledge of the principles governing brood rearing may cause a reduction in the Iioney crop by bring­ ing about in a colony any or all’of the tliree following possibilities: (1) The population of the colony may not become large enough to pro­ vide sufficient field bees during nectar (lows to gather surplus adequate to give the beekeeper a fair return' for the time speht and capital invested. (2) Surplus honey may be consumed In regions of early nectar flows by bees which have emerged too late to serve as nectar gatherers, and too early to winter over or even assist in building up the colony for the- winter. (3) Swarming may l>'e stimulated if the ratio between hive hees and field bees does not remain such as will avoid causing a congestion, within the hive whenever one of these classes is relatively idle while the other is ex­ tremely busy. The prevention of any or all of these states involves such questions as win­ tering. stores for spring, r-queening, population of the colony at fhe»hegin- nlng of brood rearing, swarm- control, dequeening. removal of brood and oth­ er related factors. Important Factors. Among some of the important fac­ tors which are within the power of the beekeeper. to provide are a prolific qneen. sufficient bees wintered over ,T meet all brood-rearing requirements in the spring, sufficient worker brood cells, sufficient stores of good honey, and proper insulation. AU of these are factors which must and can be provid­ ed In the manipulations in the latter part of the previous season if the bee­ keeper wishes to take advantage of the natural tendency tovyard intense brOod- rearlng activity at the beginning of spring. Conditions within the hive making for brood rearing during the period of initial expansion may be likened to a charge of explosives set to go off at a certain moment in the spring, the time depending on weather conditions: In- the one case the Parce of the resulting explosion Is definitely predetermined by the quantity of the charge; in the other case the amount of brood reared Is definitely predetermined by the pro-' visions made In the preceding season to give the colony the conditions most favorable for the purpose.

M ethods of C ontrol of D iseases of S traw b erry The more important diseases of strawberries are described in a~recent bulletin issued by the United States Department of Agriculture as Farmers' Bulletin 1458 together with an ac­ count of such control i methods as are of proved value. The great-yariety of conditions under which the strawberry Is grown necessitates different meth­ ods of culture and', handling. Methods of control of strawberry diseases must be adapted .to local conditions; Severe atfaeks of leaf diseases— leaf spot, scorch, and mildew—may be controlled by spraying or dusting. Often, however, frequent renewal of strawberry patches or the use of re­ sistant varieties .will serve to keep these diseases In check. The diseases caused by nematodes may ■ be avoided by planting straw­ berries in soil which is. free from these pests. . Infeiited land may lie freed from nematodes by a three-year rota­ tion w ith immune crops. Fruit rots may be reduced Iiy proper mulching. Careful handling and ade­ quate refrigeration wifi greatly lessen the losses from rots which, occur after picking.

If .there has been coceidiosis In your flock, a few precautions taken now may reduce the loss from this disease next year. That the disease has been prevaiept is indicated by the reports coming in from county agents and ex­ tension workers, and also by the fact that there has been more coceidiosis in chickens' examined than for- the past several ,years. Whether or not tlijs has been due to the dry season ,and hot. weather, however, is doubtful. When coceidiosis is known to be present' in the flock, little in the way of treatment can be suggested. Rota­ tion of poultry yards,, and disinfection of yards, brooders, fountains and feed troughs, however, may help to reduce losses next season an'd may posslbly- help some now If the' disease is al­ ready In the flock. A splendid pre­ caution to follow is to plow up the poultry yard, if there is one. thus giv­ ing tiie soil a thorough renovation by turning under the top soil and expos­ ing the earth to sunlight and air. Germs, eggs and worms are also turned under In tilts way. Coceidiosis makes Its appearance in young chicles'most often at the age of from one wec-lf t.o ten days, although it may appear later or earlier In the life of the chick. It is also sometimes found in older chickens. Although it is not a germ disease, it is caused by an organism low in the scale of life, having many germ characteristics, but hot belonging to the germ family. Chicks become infected.with the dis­ ease because they are raised in a pen that has formerly' had coceidiosis chickens in it, consequently the organ­ ism is easily picked up. For this rea­ son the location of the chicken pen or grazing ground should he changed If possible. C om m ercial D ehydration o f F ruits, V egetables Thg various methods .which have been worked out for the commercial drying of fruits and vegetables are discussed in a new bulletin prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture. T h e bulletin is intended primarily for those who either have decided to enter or are already in the dehydration industry. Tlie informa­ tion included In the publication will enable beginners to proceed with fair assurance of being able to prepare satisfactory dehydrated fruits and vegetables and will assist those now engaged in the work to improve their methods. Such phases of the industry as the location of the plant, the selection of m aterial,-its preparation for drying, curing, packing and storing., are dis­ cussed in detail. ‘ ’ Two objections to the use of dehy­ drated foods exist, say the authors of the bulletin. Deliydrated foods require soaking and cooking and they do not always reach the- con­ sumer in good condition. There is no evidence at present that the first objection can be overcome.

Train Lacking Tub, He Bathes in Rain Oslo.—When the night train on the Oslo-Bergen railway ar­ rived at Voss, at 8 a. in. recent­ ly, the residents of that Nor­ wegian village were shocked be­ yond words. The rain was pouring and. from one of the compartment windows a man was leaning, out —sans raiment. He stepped out • of the window and was holding onto the roof of the car. There he remained swayipg on the edge, taking a bath fit the fresh morning rain while the train sped along at more than 45 miles . an hour. At the next station an official entered the compartment and found the man, still nude, sitting in Iiis seat and humming a cheerful ditty .while he shaved himself. He was an English­ man who had wanted his morn­ ing tub. HUNT FOR MISSING MILLIONS SUCCEEDS Securities Found Wrapped in Old Newspaper. Rockmart, Ga.—After search extend­ ing fro’m Georgia to the financial cen­ ters of New York, approximately $1,- 000.000 in stocks and bonds belonging to the estate of Thomas I. Flournoy, has been found wrapped In an old newspaper and chucked away in the cement vault of the Southern States Cement company, of which he was president. MT-. Flournoy came to Rockmart about twenty-five years ago from Ken­ tucky. He died here September 5. The Fidelity and Columbia Trust. Co. of Louisville, in administering the es­ tate. found that he' was worth about $2,000,000 In securities, although only about half of this amount could be lo­ cated. Efforts to locate the remainder of the fortune led to a close scrutiny of the fireproof vault at the plant here, used by the company ,in safeguarding books and valuable papers. Examination of a package wrapped in a newspaper revealed the much- sought treasure. Mr. Flournoy, who was more of less a recluse, died at the age of sixty-six. He was unmarried and his estate will be divided among nieces and nephews living Iiere and in Kentucky. Just why Mr. Flournoy left the val­ uable package loose in the cement plant’s vault instead of in the vaults of: the Farmers and 'Merchants’ Na­ tional Banl: of Rockiiiart, of which he also was pr*ident. is not known. Mr. Flournoy had extensive interests at Paducahi Ky., and bis body was carried to Princeton, Ky.. his old home, for Interment. Crime Rehearsal Almost Brings About a Lynching Paris.-rFreticli love for detail and exactitude iq the matter of crime de­ tection almost brought disaster on a recent crop of criminals who were called upon by the police to re-enact the robbery of a'post office and the killing of the agent in order that the evidence for the forthcoming trial might be in perfect order. As the murder rehearsal proceeded a crowd of villagers gathered about the post office and became more and more ex­ cited as the three young criminals— who had only been captured after a stiff hunt—went through the actions of their crime with complete nonchal­ ance, -' One of the bandits, the man who had fired the fatal shot which Iiad kiljed the postal agent, entered into the affair with such gusto that the crowd was soon shouting for his blood. Cufses were IiurIed at the prisoners and jvere hurled back, at tiie crowd. With a pleasant smile Jthe accused murderer goaded the Villagers into such a fury that soon all hounds were passed and the • infuriated onlookers made a rush for the three men. Only the fastest work on the part of the police, who. hurriedly called off the crime rehearsal -and rushed their charges into an automobile, prevented an attack which might have developed Into the lynching of the bandits. Deer Drunk on Grapes Runs Wild, Hooks Cows San Francisco.—Intoxicated by a meal of dried fermented grapes, a deer ran amiiek a few miles north of San Rafael, hooked several cows, partially wrecked a barn and tore down two miles of fence on the Miller ranch.

Give the pullets good cure right now is .the pre­ scription of O. N. Johnson, poultryman at the Wisconsin College of Agriculture. Johnson urges fanners to give their puilets good fall care if they expect to reap a goodly crop of eggs this winter. AVhen bringing the birds into the lay­ ing quarters from the range' houses, Johnson recommends examining the . birds for lice. Iif lice are present every pullet should have a pinch of sodium 1 fluoride placed under each wing. He warns against dipping the birds at tills late season. Tlie house, too, needs a little exam­ ination before being thrown open to the new guests. If mites are present a solution made up of 75 per cent kero­ sene and 25 per cent crude carbolic acid should be poured'on the roosts and in the nests wherever the mites are lo­ cated. Johnson points out that tiiltes and lice require individual treatment. The louse lives on the hen; hence an at­ tempt to rout it must entail the use of poison on the hen’s back. Because the hiite lives In cracks and in the iiltli on and about the roosts and nests and merely migrates to the hen at niglit to suck blood, Johnson urges that the Iireeding place of the mites be eradicated. Pullets cannot consume enougli feed to care for their own needs os well as those of the mites and lice when they are pestered by them. For best winter egg production, Johnson points out that the puilets must be free of para­ sites. Besides tills caution, Johnson urges good feeding methods in the early full so that the pullets are able to main­ tain their body weight under the strains of production. Where care is exercised a well-matured pullet can serve as a very valuable addition to the Income-producing power of Uie farm. S easonable S uggestions in C aring fo r C hickens During the summer months many farmers allow their chickens to shift for themselves most of the time, but with the coming of winter it Is neeqs- sary that poultry be fed. Conse­ quently it is doubly important that this feed is not wasted. Here are some seasonable suggestions. Cull close on old liens. Keep the best and sell the rest,- Weii matured puilets make the best producers. Sell surplus cockerels unfit for breeding purposes. Be sure hens are free from lice and mites. Don’t overcrowd the fowls. OutJine a breeding system for the coming year. Be sure to get full value when buy­ ing breeding stock. Reconstruct the lien house during the fall. Damp hen houses are profit eaters. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCgSVILDE, Ni C, FLARE GROWS MORE POPULAR; _ M HEADW EAR FOR THE EVENING Tj the tCg*. Western umoo.)

EXPLOSION ACCIDENT • HAPPENS, AT SM ALI. SAW MILL! IN FLORIDA; THREE In ju r e d . Pensacola, F.la.—Five men were in­ stantly killed and three were seriously injured when ’the boiler of a small sawmill at Pbnce de Leon, Fla., ex­ ploded, according to word received here from De Funlak Springs.

Nederland. Col.—More than 100 men fought feverishly tq gain entrance to h e Fairview Miningfcompany's silver, gold and lead mine, near here, where 10 miners were entombed. A fire caused the mine portal to cave in and lestroyed the buildings about'the tun- ael mouth. The rescue workers were engaged n a double task—that of sinking a .0-foot shaft into the top of the mine .unnel and that of clearing away more .han 20 feet of debris that-, blocked the passage way when the fire burn­ ed the-timber supports. H. K. Lidstone, mine superintend­ ent, expects a shaft to be sunk, there- jy enabling rescue workers, equipped with gas masks, to enter the work- ngs. The cave-in of the mine portal fol- owed a fire in the compressor when fresh air is driven' into the mind which spread to the buildings about the mouth and attacked the timbering. Mine officials have expressed fear as to the safety of the entombed men, who may have been suffocated by the dense smoke that filled the mine. However, a ray'of hope was seen be­ cause of length of the 1 main tunnel chat extends ,for more than 3,000 feet mto the mountains. The Home of Better Values SteAesvile, N.

HAD SECRET SERVICE COMPLETE AS UNCLE SAM’S, ALLEGED. , New York.—Hal f a hundred prohibi­ tion agents, deputy United States mar­ shall and special patrolmen raided the offices, of a liquor ring which prohibi­ tion agents said was the largest in the history of prohibition, and was “the backbone of rum row.” A syndicate which controlled eight­ een ocean steamers in the liquor trade, bribed coast guard officers wholesale and had its own secret service sys­ tem for watching the movement of federal officers was said to have been broken up by the raiders, whose first round up of the day netted. 20 men and whose principal captive was "Bill” Dwyer, alleged.head of the syndicate. The ring's activities were said to have been responsible for bringing millions of dollars worth of liquor into this county annually. Dwyer, arraigned before Judge Goddard on a specific charge of conspiring- last July to bring 4,038 cases of liquor, into the country hidden In the bonk- ' ers of the steamship Augusta, was held in 40,000 bail.

The raids were care­ fully planned after warrants had been issued by- Federal Judge Thomas Thatcher. At a signal, detachments of agents went to different parts of the city where members of the alleg­ ed syndicate were known to be gath­ ered. -The chief point of attack was a suite of offices in the East River National Bank building in Times Square, .where leaders of the ring were arrested. Immediately after the raid, Major W alton A. Green, chief assistant of General Lincoln, C. Andrews, dis­ patched the following message to his chief:. v “Beg to report capture of Dwyer / and his principal assistants. Fprty- one warrants out and biggest round up in history, of prohibition enforce­ ment still in progress.” W ar Secretary Makes Report. Washington.—Secretary Davis ot the war department ,has the unique distinction of having before him for approval a report signed by himself on his own activities as assistant sec­ retary of war. The document is his annual report as assistant secretary to the secretary, and was signed by- Mr. Davis before Secretary Weeks' resignation, although the former secre­ tary did not act upon any of its rec­ ommendation, leaving that to his suc­ cessor. As assistant secretary and in charge of the general war department procurement program, ak\w ell as of the industrial mobilizatioir planning, Mr. Davis stressed in his report the Importance of representation of this office to the department’s budgetary supervision machinery. "It has seemed to me of paramount importance,” he said, "that in consid­ eration of the army budget my office should be represented in.order to as­ sist in presenting the point of view of the supply branches. Past history has .indicated that in general the 'ap­ propriation needs of the supply branchs are sacrificed to those of per­ sonnel, a condition .which can be rem­ edied only by constant watchfulness, and continuing effort.” Church Union Plan Defeated. Nashville, Tenn.—The secular press bureau, Methodist Episcopal church, south, announced defeat of the plan of unification with the Methodist Episcopal church.. The combination vote of the 45 an­ nual conferences in the southern church as tabulated by the bureau was 8,636 out of a possible voting strength of approximately 10,000. The vote cast in favor of unification was 4,528 against 4,108. W hile a numerical majority of 420 votes was given th e. affirmative the measure lacked 1,949 * ballpts of, a three-fourths constitutional majority necessary for ratification. Only 40 ballots of the 393 votes polled in the foreign conferences were against the merger. Watching Florida.

Miami, Fla.—Au unidentified white man wearing a suit purchased In Springfield, Mass., was shot and kill­ ed here, supposed by one or two men who attempted a hold-up. His body was found by two negroes, who told police they heard several, men pass their house, all talking loud­ ly. and a moment later heard a single shot and the sound of running.

ROMir .A u t h o r o r " m e c o w p u n c h e r; SttAD ~ --■ THE ffOM SSTTAPERS" C H A P T E R X I V - C o n t in u e d ""-IiI "Oh! my G—d” I cried. “Not yet! Not y e t!” I fell In the snow. I floundered atm* lessly In the broken crust. . . . AVhen I came back to realization the vision was gone. Only the snow, shot through with its thin mists of light, fell on forever. Was I freezing? The thought prod­ ded me to consciousness. I drew a hand from my mitt and thrust it against my face. The Sngers were warni. The skin of my forehead would wrinkle. I was able to wriggle my toes in my boots. No, I was not freez­ ing. My troubles were of the mind*; my bodily engines were functioning properly. . . . I got the wind over my right shoulder and pressed on. Jean wanted me to keep her guess­ ing. That was the easy, slangy way of putting it. Poetic license, she had called it. What she meant was that I must always have something In re­ serve; some mysterious corner of my­ self into which she had not explored. Something to keep up the sense of mystery, the spirit of adventure, In which romance is born, without which romance must die. No doubt she was right. After all, why should she marry me? What was I more than a biped beast of burden, an animal designed to eat, sleep, labor, and reproduce Itself? .... Spoof was something more than that. Was I wise to Inter­ rupt them at all? Wby not leave them alone? It was while I wrestled with the thought of a great renunciation that the light broke about me. I was sure that animal for animal—ox for ox— Jean preferred me to Spoof. It was in those qualities that were not animal that she preferred him. It was for me. therefore, by all means, to delay her decision, and then to set about deliber­ ately to develop the qualities in which I was at a disadvantage. I must read. These idle winter months gave me the very opportunity to read, and I cursed myself that so many weeks had slipped by unimproved. What to read? I had m.v old school books and a Bibie__ little else. Still, if one knew his Bible —if I were to read up some book in it,' develop a simple philosophy out of it, enveigle Jean into an argument, and best her, that would'be keeping her guessing, wouldn’t it? .... I could borrow books from Spoof.* It was a strange sidelight on my feel­ ings toward Spoof that even at this moment and for this purpose there seemed nothing unnatural in the thought that I should borrow books from him. Other Neighbors might Iiave books; one never can tell. Most peo­ ple remain unread, not from lack of books, but from lack of application. There was Reverend Locke. I would make an excuse to town, and would borrow books from him. I would even spend a few of my hurd-earned dollars on magazines, or on menibership in a mail order library. Of all this .Tean was to know nothing. I would keep her guessing. I trudged on in a mood akin to cheer­ fulness. I bad made my decision. I had stepped out of an old world into a new one. Something which must | have lain dormant ail these years awoke and thrilled me with the pos­ sibilities of what I might become. Life for me was no longer a thing of the body, which is death, but a thing of the mind and spirit, which are eternal. And yet. . . . In imagination I al- ;lowed nryselt Co feel Jean’s hair brusli- ;lng my .cheek. . Presently something waved to me ■out of thtf mist. I stopped, with eyes intent. Undoubtedly' something was waving to me out of the mist. . “Jean! Jean!” I called, bnt there was no an­ swer. I moved toward it eagerly, and suddenly the mystery was made clear. It was a great sunflower, clothed in hoary frost, nodding in the wind. I smiled to myself at its almost spectral appearance; then glancing ahead I saw another and another'and another; a whole row of them. This was Spoof’s ! These were tlie sunflowers which he had planted. Spoof’s shack must. be nearby. Surely, there to the left, was •duller darkness through the snow. I hurried toward it. The angular outline of Spoof’s shack emerged gradyl ually out of the mist, like a sunken bout rising slowly to the surface of the water. Half of it was concealed at best by the great drifts that bor­ dered it. I found my way to the shack, around the-corner, to. the door. ,Should I UiirvcIi?

A knock on ;1 haehelo'r’s door, s from * neighbor, in midwinter, is a thing so unexpected I that sometimes.' the . ear does not register It; It merely cocks itself to make sure if the’ sound should b ej’epeated. I knocked again. In a moment the door opened, and I saw Spoof,- in a flannel shirt and smoking Jacket, cor­ duroy trousers; moccasins—I think I took In every detail of his attire. Hls tie was drawn neatly up to the throat; his hair was well brushed; he had not shaved. His ’ mustache was heavier, his face paler, thinner— “Why,- Prank!” he- exclaimed. I seemed to hear both welcome and em­ barrassment In his voice. “Come in, old man! This is quite a day at sec­ tion Two.” On account of the dull weather and the frosted windows Spoof had a lamp burning; it was a,brass lamp, with a twisted, ornamental bowl and a cloth shade of some old gold color. It stood on a shelf which he had built In a corner of-hi? only room; its subdued but cheerful light touched the objects in the little shack with a glint of color which was in sharp contrast to the drab day outside. Spoofs couch had been made up; his steamer rug lay tucked about it. The walls were a maze of firearms, prints, curios. There was the warmth of a fire and the odor of .something cooking. In the corner opposite to the lamp. on: the -floor, on a mat, sat Jean. Her knees were propped up in front of her and her. long, .supple fingers w ere; linked about them. It was as she-had sat that day—what, only yesterday?— with me under the great drift on the bank of. the gully. A tapestry affair of some' kind; hung on the wall, sheltered her from direct contact with the cold boards, and a cushion with a yellow* dragon further protected her. She looked up at me as I entered and her face was a riddle too enigmatic to analyze. Annoyance, defiance, pleas­ ure, humor, indifference, were strange­ ly and inextricably Interwoven. “Hello, Prank.” she said, quietly. “You see, Je—Miss Lane is an early caller.” Spoof explained. “Although not a frequent one,” he added, “any more than you are. If she had known you were coming no doubt you would have come together.” “Yes, that might have been better," t said, pointedly. “The trail is gone," Spoof continued. Ignoring the jab In my remark. “It must have taken some skill to find the direction.” “Particularly before daylight,” I said, more pointedly than before. “Oh! don’t quizz, Frank’;’’ Jean pro­ tested. “I’ll tell you all about it pres­ ently. I was just saying to Spoof, when your knock interrupted me, how much the wiser the Japanese are than we. They sit on the floor, as nature intended’them to do. and how graceful they are! I am playing the part.” “But not for that reason, I am afraid," said Spoof. “You see, I re­ joice in only one chair, called -easy’ by way of courtesy. Miss Lane re­ fused, to sit in it Wliile-I stood, and I, of course, could not sit Jn it while' she stood. So she solved a deadlock by silting on the floor," Nothing very incriminating about, all this. They were just chatting nat­ urally; surely they couldn’t be'such actors as to stage this dialogue 'with­ out a moment’s notice.. Still—I had had.to knock the second time. .. . . You have breakfasted?” Spoof , in­ quired. ‘Why, I am-afraid I must confess I haven’t. I left . home rather unex­ pectedly.” I was not disposed to beat about the bush', and the comuionplace- ness of their talk irritated me. Surely here was a situation bad enough with­ out making It worse by pretending there was nothing bad about it. Spoof glanced- at -a cloclc which chuckled away amiably on his wall. “We can have iuneh within an hour,’.’ he said. With a fork he prodded some­ thing stewing on the stove. “Yes, the rabbit is almost done. By Jove, a good fat one! Fancy how they pick so IoHly a living! Will you wait, or would you rather have a bite now? I can only give you bread and -marma­ lade at once. You must be hungry." “No, I'm - not hungry;” I said, truth­ fully enough.- The fact is, I couldn’t keep my eyes off Jean. Now and again, when sl\e didn't know I watched, her face seemed to take on something of melancholy; but mostly it was bright, responsive, vivacious. . She seemed to fit so wonderfully—physically and mentally fitted so wonderfully into Spoof's shack. • . . ;; So we waited for the rabbit to stew, and Spoof and Jean chatted on. I was more the audience than one of the players. They were away into some dispute about atmospheric colorings; something that had to do with rain­ bows, sumiogs. ice prisms, light radin; tion. It was beyond ine; so obviously .beyond ine'tliat Spoof bad mercy and brought Jean bad; to earth. ' “What do yqu think of. the scheme to form a new province iiere—two ne% provinces,” he shot at me, “in­ stead of our present districts? More autonomy and more taxes; as I see It.” “Yes, I suppose,” I groped^ The fact is I knew nothing about It. ‘‘Would seem more natural to follow the old ^isp-ict boundaries, though," Spoof commented. "They say they are going to run the provinces-frbrn’siuth to north—as far as the sixtieth paral­ lel., There'll ,be an election n ext year. You ought to tliink about that, Frank. It would be some honor to sit in the first parliament of Saskatchewan.” The idea struck , me as grotesque. I said so. "Why not?” Jean ' demanded! and there was'fire In her, voice. “Perhaps not the first parliament, but some parliament,’’ she qualified. “Some parliament,” I said to'm y­ self. “Perhaps. If I had Jean to goad me on I might do—anything.” Spoof scraped a comer clear on tlie window pane, and said some lines about “Snow cold—in snow.” It was something about a soldier dying In the trenches; not wounded, or fighting, but just dying In the snow. I- saw Jean's rapt, attention; the glisten of her eyes; the gulp of her white throat. What power was this the man had over her? Was this all a thing of ipind, or was it body, too? I Iiad told myself that, ani­ mal for animal, Jean would prefer me. As I looked at Spoof’s strong figure, well knit, well clad, I wondered. In some way we put In the hour. I did not press the subject, the question, the suspicion which was turmoiling my mind. It was Jean’s move. I waited for her. ' C H A P T E R X V Spoof set his little table with a linen cloth and napkins and amazingly good dishes. The meal Was to consist of stewed rabbit, ivlth. potatoes and car­ rots ; bread and cheese and tea. Jean sprang up to cut the bread and make the tea. It was not until we had finished lunch, and Spoof had rolled me a cigarette, and the dishes were cleared away and some sort of tapestry cover substituted on the table, that Jean saw fit to refer to her behavior. “I promised you that If you didn't quizz 'I would tell you all about it, Frank,” she said, suddenly. “You have been, a good boy, and I will keep my word.” “By jove. I haven’t fed the bullocks,” Spoof exclaimed. “That’s what comes of having company. I really should have a man. If the governor saw 'me leave my-guests to feed a pair of un­ gracious bulls he would be permanent­ ly humiliated.' You won't mind, will you?” We wouldn't, and in a moment Spoof was plowing toward his stables. “You think I’m a wild woman, and pretty'm uch of a fools” said Jean. “Come, this bench is a sad invention. Let’s sit on the floor.” She went back to her station in the comer, and made me sit down beside her. “There, that’s better,” she said. ’You think I’m a wild woman, and pretty much of a fool. Let’s pass the first count On the second we agree. Now TH give you the whole story with­ out frills. “You know, of course, why I can­ celed our engagement. W e’ve covered that ground; no use plowing it again. I believed I loved; Spoof ; I hoped he I It Wat as She'H ad Sat That: Day— What, Only;'Yesterday? loved me; But since Jack's wedding he) had avoided ; Us. After our talk yesterday I couldn’t stand it any longer. “I woke up this morning, about five o’clock, thinking o f ' him, and as I thought a vague, wild plan which had been haunting me took form. It Mo*' lInmmed wouldn’t cone to the moun­ tain, the mountain would go to . Mo-* hammed. You see,‘I have reversed the figure, as Is right In this case. It was a wild idea, but Oijce I got it clearly 'n my head there was nothing to do biit go through with it. -I knew I would he found out; I knew all that /ou and Jack and Marjorie would think, even if you didn’t say it., But there comes a time when none of these things matter—do you understand? “So I dressed as quietly as I could, and slipped out. It wasn’t snowing, then ;, the stars were bright and num­ berless; I got my bearings.'.and struck, out.. As I passed your shanty, I stopped at ybur-window. :‘-All was, dark and still. ‘Dear old boy,’, r wMspered against . your window pane, ,‘I wlBb things were different—but . they’re not.’ ” .... ,A She had laced , her angers again about' her knees; but now she dropped the hand next to m e, and- it fell on mine. There was nothing surreptl-. tious about it; it was deliberate, de­ signed, aggressive. ' • ' J “I had covered most of the-distance before It began to snow. Then I was in, danger for a while, but I made -It all right. Unfortunately, Spoof is not an early riser. He was surprised to see me." ' She stopped, and for a long while gazed into space, a s though studying what she would say next. ‘•Well, I proposed to him. H e re­ fused roer” she said quietly. “Refused you? . . . Do. you mean that’s the whole story?” "That’s the substance; I told you I ivould leave out the frills. You can decorate It to your liking. One of the se­ crets of art is to not to overstate your­ self—leaving something to. the Imagi­ nation. The more intelligent the audi­ ence, the more may be left to the Im­ agination. You are an Intelligent au- 'dience, Frank.” Through my absurd concern for, I hardly knew what, her adorable tan- talizatlon seethed In me like an elec­ tric current. And so selfish am I and all men—that it was some minutes Iiefore I realized that Jean had re­ ceived a knockout blow ; that she had humiliated herself to this man Spoof; that she had placed her womanhood at his feet, and he had spurned it. Just what it was for me to lose Jean, just that same must It be for Jean to lose Spoof. "And he refused you— refused you.” I repeated, when this thought had set­ tled clearly in my mind. “Jean, I don’t see how—any man—could do that.” “He was ' kind—considerate,” she said, quietly. “Said he was sorry; appreciated tlie compliment; any man might be flattered, lie said, but it was quite impossible. So I am left dan­ gling In space.” “Well, what next?" I asked, after a long silence in which, consciously or unconsciously, she was drawing her finger tips slowly up and down be­ tween the backs of mine. “What next?” “Go home,” she said, decisively. “Jack and Marjorie will be uneasy. You will see me home, won’t you?” Spoof took an inordinately long time to feed the oxen, but when he returned, with great blowing and stamping before opening the door, we were ready for the road. We took leave without much in the way of ex­ planations, but with his promise - to come and see us at least once a week. Our long walk home was taken in almost complete silence. Once I sug­ gested to Jean tliat we should let it be understood that she had gone to Brown’s, not Spoof’s. “Just as you like,” she said. “I don’t care.” As we neared Twenty-two Jean took my arm, although here the path was good. ■“Thank you so much,” she said. "I thought you would, perhaps—that you would go back to what we talked of yesterday. I couldn’t stand that. Just now. Do you understand? You are considerate; you are— an artist,” and her face smiled wanly into mine. I lied glibly about having found Jean at Mrs. Brown's; Mrs. Brown was well, but one of the children had a sore throat; Brown had slipped on the ice and hurt his hip, not badly; they were ,longing for English mail. I knew all this duplicity must be found out, but I was content to delay the evil day. By some sort of telepathic understanding we did not discuss Jean’s behavior. We were glad enough to have her back safe and sound; we were willing to agree that the stress of winter had. perhaps been too Mnucli for her. She would be all right presently. The days that followed were busy times for me. I Immediately began to glean the neighborhood for books, and the' harvest was much more liberal than I expected. Spoof lent me By­ ron arid the Decline and F all; Brown supplied a complete Shakespeare, In one volume; Bella Donna contributed a Life of Lincoln; Burke, much to my surprise, had a copy of Whitman, from which he quoted copiously, ges­ ticulating to me In'an empty stall— he was a deep pool where I had looked for shallow water; Andy Smith was equally insistent upon rehearsing Bums, and particularly to the effect that the rank is but the guinea's stamp, etc. I did not call upon Mrs. Alton, nor venture into the tinguessed possi­ bilities of Hansen’s and Sueezit’s, al­ though iifter my experiences I was almost prepared to find Ole Hansen' buried In The Wealth of Nations, and Sneezit poring ove^ Carlyle. Neither did I, at the time, enlist the good of­ fices _of the Keverend Locke. In a community that I -had supposed des­ titute of anything of the sort I had unearthed more books than I could read. At first I had to drive myself to it, but. presently I began to be carried away in the spirit In the new world which was opening before me. With joy I .noted, .suddenly. that I. had' forced my boundaries far beyond the comer stakes of Fourteen, beyond even the prairies, the continent, the times In \vhich we live. 'My mind, from sluggishly hibernating for the, winter, became a dynamo of activity. One' day Jean came over to Four­ teen, atone. I buried my Shakespeare under a pair of old overalls and opened the door.-: Perhaps she. saw me glancing about, as though IotibInei for Marjorie. . “Unchaperoned, today,” she said; “You don’t mind?” She,began to draw off ,her ; glpyes; new knitted glbves which I' had not Seen before , “New gloves,'J ean ?” I queried. ' ^ “Yes. just finished knitting them from ■ yarn mother sent. FeeI them’ ,Aren’t(they.soft?” r • • ' ** e“vy ^ em very much.” I said.- -and was' niucJJ pjleased with my sofc; ttety. ' "Envy them—why? . . . Oh, you mean' because they’re—they're always holding my hands,” and a happy wave of color flushed Into her cheeks. “You are -very clever.” ‘“Thinks,' Jean. Now ‘take Off that pretty little cap of yours, which Is not half <as beautiful as the hair it hides, and let me draw off your over­ shoes—I have a- grievance against them, as weli—and we'll just alt; down and settle the affairs of the universe,” - “I wish we could,” she said, with a note that had lost most of its joyous­ ness; “I rather wish we could. But where have you been hiding? And why? And did that afternoon we spent coasting- bore you so that you have never asked me out since?'* 'lOhrlPve been” busy,” I said ;; “Very busyl’’ “Busy? At what?” Then I could forbear no longer. My secret was. about to burst from me. “Why, Spoof! Come ini” I Com­ manded. "Jean and I Are Juct Hav- ing Tea.". I took Jean’s coat and cap; I seated her; I drew off her overshoes; I stirred the fire. “Busy? , Yes, Tm very busy. I hafVe a big world to tliink about. In the words of the poet; I love not man the less, but Nature more, From these our interviews, In which I steal From .all I may be, or have been before. To mingle with the universe, and feel What I can ne'er express. Yet cannot all conceal. “Lovely !’!■ she exclaimed. “Why, Frank! . . . That’s from—from—” “I have you guessing, Jean,” I re­ marked. dryly. “You memorized that on purpose; you dug a pit for me,” she protested. “Still, better that than none. Come, 'fess up. Where is it?" I drew my Byron from its place of concealment. '"Ah, if you had started at the be­ ginning of the stanza with, ‘There is a pleasure in tlie pathless wood,' I would have known,” she said. “Still—’’ The book lay open before us. Her hands had fallen on its printed, pages. I drew-them slowly Into mine; drew them up and about my neck. “Jean,” I whispered, "You know there is only, ultimately, one answer. Why not give it now ” - “Not yet, Prank. We shall see. Don’t you understand? I must wait and see whether you have really—out­ grown yourself—or are just memoriz­ ing verses witii me for a prize.” . “All right,” I said. ‘TH wait and prove it. But I warn you—I can’t foresee where this thing is going to lead. It may not be content with books, only; already I’m rather sure it will want more than books. It may lead me out into the world. There are other women, there, Jean,” I added, significantly. “I know. I understand. I must take my chance. It is worth even that to be sure—in the end.” After a while I made tea, and just as we were sitting down to it came a knock at the door. It was a sharp, dignified knock; not the boisterous thump which either Jack or Marjorie would have given it. “Who's that ?” we asked each other. “Alas, we are discovered!” Jean rip­ pled. VIt is a real adventure.” I opened the door to find Spoof’s tali Sgure ouside, and In his arms a large and pudgy and uncertain bundle. It was a mom ent' before I saw the sec-, ond figure^-that of a woman. -She wore i heavy fur coat, and her face was veiled for the inclement day. "VVhy, Spoof! . • . . Come In!” I commanded. “Jean and I are just I laving^ tea. Let me. put your oxen in.” “They are all right for the moment; they’re In the shelter. I must make Introductions, first” We welcomed, them in. and Spoof set his bundle down on end In the middle of the. floor, and began to. un­ wind it- The woman ,removed .her coat and cap and veil.1 It w is' Mrs. Alton. The bundle resolved itself into Mrs. Alton’s boy. . “M iss Lane, let. me present my wife.” said Spoof. “My wife- And my son Gerald.” _ ITO BE.

He insists that: officers j charged with enforcement of the Prohibitionlaw have no right to either shoot at a suspect, or to fire in the air to scare him Nor is it ; within the proprieties to buy liquor from a bootlegger and then “report on him.” In the case of the pistol firing “in the air,” the suspect has Po reason to believe that he is not being shot at, and if he .should make stand and return fire, even if wounds or kills his man, he migl t be regarded by the court as having been justified, both IegalJy and morally. As to buying liquor and t ten hauling tke seller to court, judge Meekins has laid down a rule which he proposes to follow. He will “discharge the defendant.” He might have gone a step fuitlur i : breaking up the In. bit, by adding “ and jug the officer.” The course of the courts in recent days ought to prove a deterrent to the officers who have been quick to draw the pistol. Some shorts fired at random reached the victim, as surely as if aimed directly at him.—Charlotte Observer.

C. « I Study The Scriptures;- - People are talking much about the Bible and not reading it, de clares Mr. J. W. Bailey. It is a safe assertion that real students of the Bible outside the ranks of tlie clergy «re very few. That is', few people read the Bible with a view to an understanding of its content, as they would read and study an other book. The reasou is obvious. Most of us have heard the book read and quoted and explained in church aud Sanday school, and in some cases in the home, from our youth up. In fact the average in dividual reads a few chapters oc casionally, for information, enter­ tainment, or as a matter of duty. Much of the Bible reading is a sort of enforced duty, as something that is required or expected. Thus a- bout allot' us have a smattering of Scriptural knowledge. We think we are well informed about the Bible because we know in a gener­ al way the Bible story. And with this smattering only, many there be who undertake to interpret and explain. It is those who think' they know and are unable to realize their ignorance that Mr. Bailey piobablv had in mind. Of course Scriptural reading is highly desir­ able for all, from any viewpoiut, but it is especially enjoined on those who undertake to expound. There was a story extant in the p ist generation as to the origiu of a most popular book, ‘'Ben H ur1 A Taleof the Christ.” by General Lew Wallace, which is apropos, whether or not the story had foun­ dation in fact. Before the book was written more than fori y years ago, Colonel R. G- Ingersolll noted infidel, was quite urominent in the jjiiblic eye. He was going up aud down the land ridiculing the Bible and gaining a heating more on ac­ count of the power of his eloquence probrbly than, for the force of his argument. General Wallace is re . ported to have said to Ingersoil on one occasion: “I don’t like to hear you ridicule the Bible. It was my mother’s Bible, she read it and be­ lieved it and I respect the book be­ cause of her inomory ” Haveyou read the Bible? asked ingersoil. Wallace confessed that he had not.. “Then read it,” retored the infidel orator, "and you will have the same opitron of it I have ■ The story goes that Wallace was thus prompted to study the Bible and the result was the noted book, Ben Hur, accepted as an. exponent of the truth of the Scriptures. In other words, the. Wallace accept­ ance of the Ingersoil advice had the • opposite effect to that Ingersoil an­ ticipated.—Greensboro News. Richmond Cath In Broken Bank. The Democratic board of com­ missioners of Richmond-, countv had $3 7 ,5 0 0 of the people’s' money of that' county deposited in -the busted Band of Hamlet, and there is now serious doubt- whetoer more than half of it will be recovered. They didn't even require, a bond, surely or anything for the deposit of the bank. A bright set is' t.h'at Richmond county Deniocratic board Bad Check Law Still In Force. Check flashers and others who draw worthless check aud pass them off 011 the public have broad­ casted the fact over the State that' a recent decision^ Supreme court'Iitased by tjjj$i&$r^!&atiire but the North CaJplin'a Merchants Associktion which gof .'the' present enacted says that siich is not the case and' • agaitist. the .giViflg "of worthless check in the State is still in force.

N U M B E R 23 The Problem of Insanity in Crimi­ nal Cases. Perhaps a quarter of a century from now we shall be able to work out the problems of handling in sinity in criminal cases,. Perhaps. Ic is certain that today we know n 'thing Or if we know anything, we do not practice it. The N iel verdict in New Jersey was not required to prove the ease. Noel had been for months in an in­ stitution for the treatment of the institution as a cured man. He sim­ ply left it It was privately con­ ducted and there was no reason why the institution should try to hold him. Shortly thereafter—a master of onlv a few months—he killed a taxicab driver under circumstances of peculiar heartlessness. He kid­ naped a six year-old girl and killed her under circumstances even. more heartless, No reason was discover­ ed why he should have killed either one. He simply killed the two per­ sons. We doubt if any person not him­ self insane would seriously hold that Moel was a sane man. We doubt if the attorney for the state think he was sane. We doubt if the jurors think he was sane. He had commit­ ted two murders of unusual horror. Result: He is ordered to his death. Compare that situation with con­ spicuous Tar Heel examples of "transitory insanity” and then go off in a corner and congratulate the judicial system for its wisdom of judgment. Add the case of the iiegro in Winston Salem, tried, con­ victed and sentenced to his death; held up when somebody said he had been in an insane asylum; sentenced a second time; and then ponder on what would have happened if in stead of a friendless negro it has .been a. wealthy and popular.-white man In another city nearby a young mail recently killed two persons and seriously wounded a third. After his trial had been in progress several days—in fact, just about the time when both sides were ready to rest—the attorney for an eminent student of mental disorders and ask ed him to tell whether the defendant was sane. When the physician re- plitd that he would have to take days possibly weeks, before he could answer, the idea was dismissed. In­ stead. testimony was introduced to show that the defendant had taken uarcotics. Probably, also, somebody recalled that he was “wild-eyed,” whatever that is. The cases might be multiplied many times. Sometimes they turn this way, sometimes that. Some­ times, the law of averages being what it is. the truth is discovered, accidently. But we have no means of knowing that the truth will be reavelev. we have not under the pre sent lack of system better than an even chance that it will be revealed Much that has been accomplished through the use of students of in­ sanity has shaken public 'confidence in their testimony, and similarly, much that has been done by; juries over the testimony of students and against their, t -stimony and in saite of it has shaken confidence in jaries faced with this' issue. The present situation is a patch quilt of hals reliace on and defiance of ex­ perts. Men are being sentenced re gularly. who are clearly insane; men are being declared insane regularly who everybody, knows are not in.. sane. Isn’t it time to apiproach a pro. bleip which is patiently ridiculous and is more’important, is tragic in its daily results?—Greensboro News. Former Officer in Bad. Herbert. Q- Gulley, former fed&t* al and-Slafe1' leveuue collector, vp#-* vat’eidetectiye and light hand man of Josiah IWilIiam Bailey, . durnig- his campaign' Vfor governor was charged with a'.'

Court houses make no impres sion on bandits and gangsters. In one night recently thieves took and rolled away four cars parked near the Guilford county courthouse in Greensboro Cars parked withiu the range, if not the shadow of the temple of justice,.seemed to appeal more than cars on other streets and the machine were seized and driven away while people passed a- Iong the streets. They not only took the car of Mason Gant, clerk of Guilford county Superior court, from within the shadow of the court house, but they added insult to jury by using his car to trans­ port hootch and then abandoning it when they had no further use for it. While a coroner’s inquest was in progress iu Chicago a bystander pulled a revolver and shot to death a witness on the stand giving testi­ mony, The gunman said he was certain the witness had killed his brother and he took revenge with­ out waiting for the process of the courts. The Hillsville (Va.) in­ cident, when tne court was short up and the judge and others killed, was most startling because it was something new. They areu’t shoot­ ing up the courts now. They just laugh at it.—Statesville Daily. Your Boy and Girl. Yorkville Enquirer. "I want my bov and girl to have an easier time in life than I have,” You have often heard that remark, and it sounds very pleasant; but is it logical? Just when did your boy and your girl become entitled to bet­ ter things in-this world ,than -you. have? Is your endeavor to do bet­ ter by your boy or girl, beyond cer­ tain limits, fair to your boy and girl? And then, just what do you mean by making things easier for your bov and g-irj? Do you mean that you are going to save them from some of the hard knocks of the world or all of them? Does it mean that your boy and girl are going to be given such an easy time in this world that by the time they are 21. years of age, or older, they will have absolutely no knowledge of what work is, what the value of time and a dollar may be? WeIl1J f you are raising your boy or girl on this line, you are doing them a grave injustice. No matter how much wealth you may have aequiced; no matter how easy you may make their lot in life, vou are making a mistake if you do not teach your children something of the value of the dollar—what it takes to get a dollar by work, and that after all money earned is worth more than money that is given them and yob are making another mis take if your boy and girl are not taught to do some honest work in return for honest pay. The time can easily come to thousands of other rich men’s sons and daughters, when they will not have father’s money prestige to help them over the rug­ ged path of life, and if such should happen after you are gone, if. you could look back frona the Spirit world and.see your offspring up a gainst a hard, cruel world, such as the misfits and useless usually find, perhaps you will realize that your idea of making things easy in this world for your children was a terri­ ble mistake. ,. Yes. every parent should do H s very best to educate and train his children for useful, producing lives hut don’t make the mistake of think­ ing that your children are entitled t.o ^e raised on an ambrosia diet.

Washington.—A wide range of legis­ lative recommendations, some of them new, others a reiteration of policies he has ,advocated to Congress for the last two years, was contained in Pres­ ident Coolidge's address transmitted to the house and senate. Abandoning his custom and that ot Presidents Wilson and Harding ot ad­ dressing a new Congress in joint ses­ sion, Mr. Coolidge submitted his mes­ sage in writing. One of the longest presidential messages in years, aggre­ gating 10,000 words and touching on 46 subje«ts, it was read by clerks in each bouse. In the field of domestic legislation, the executive urged further tax reduc­ tion, giving general approval to the bill drafted by the house ways and ymeans committee; * recommended ac­ tion to strengthen aviation along lines proposed by his air board; renewed his advocacy of power to deal with labor disputes in the coal industry as proposed two years ago by the coal commission; advised a curtailment of the shipping board's powers and con­ trol of the merchant fleet by one ex­ ecutive, and touched again on the need for encouragement to co-operative marketing as 'an aid to agriculture. The President also appealed for ob­ servance of the prohibition law by the public and vigorous enforcement with the co-operation of states. \ He renewed his advocacy of railroad consolidation, governmental, reorgan- 'SIifTbnf'and increased; state and local co-operation in reclamation projects, opposed return for the present of property seized from aliens during the world war, and recommended sale of Muscle Shoals to the highest bidder. In a lengthy discussion of foreign affairs, Mr. Coolidge appealed for fav­ orable senate action on the proposal for American adherence tV the world court, voiced graitflcation over the Locarno security agreement and ex­ pressed willingness for the United States to take a lead in any feasihle plan for further reduction of land and sea armaments. ' In the preface of his message, the President set- forth the view that the country "does not appear to require radical departures from the policies already adopted so much as it needs further extension of these policies and the improvement of details.” He also stressed anew the necessity for government economy, insisting that it is the pathway to further light­ ening of the tax burden.

We passed on trying to find a single man who still drew the breath of life, but after the first few men who were injured were re­ moved we have not found a live miner. Discover Still on Battleship.

SAYS PRESIDENT COOLIDGE IN MESSAGE TO FARMERS OF MIDDLE WEST. . Chicago.—President Coolidge came in to the middle west with a message ot encouragement for the farmer. ■ .Addressing the annual convention of the American Farm Bureau fed­ eration, he.'predicted that, in spite of past and present adversities agricul­ ture as a whole will lead industry in future prosperity. Assailing legisla­ tive proposals savoring of paternal­ ism, he promised to apprcve any ag­ ricultural plan “devised in accordance with sound economic principles.” The President’s audience which packed the ball rpom of the Sherman hotel and represented farmers of 40 states, listened attentatively to the address which he read, with fer ges­ tures. A half dozen times he was in­ terrupted by" applause but his defense of the tariff as an aid to agriculture and his arraignment of proposals that the government engage in the marketing of farm products or in price fixing direct or indirect were greeted with silence. At the conclusion oi his address, however, the audience rose and ap­ plauded. The President, who was accompan­ ied by Mrs. Coolidge, was in Chicago five hours. After his address he at­ tended a luncheorf given by farm bureau officials while Mrs. Coolidge was gust of honor at a similar func­ tion tendered by their wives. Crowds lining the streets of the busiress dis­ trict of th j city gave the distinguished visitor an enthusiastic greeting as they passed to and from the hotel in an, uncovered automobile. One of the passengers of the Pres­ ident’s speech which brought a round of appause, was a reference of his life as a boy on the farm, and his contention that “we cannot stop with the -mere acquisition of wealth.” . Chapel Hill, N. C.—AU dance3 at the University of North Carolina will I be suspended until after, the Easter holidays and permission to hold the regular commencement finals will de­ pend on the conduct at such dances as may be given after Eastern, Dr. H. W. Chase, president of the university, announced following the report of fac­ ulty and btudent committees which have been investigating the recent series ot Thanksgiving dances. Dr. Chase said that a thoroughgoing investigation was begun immediately following reports of drinking at the last dance of the series and that, while the facts rscertained revealed ho alarming condition, there was suffi­ cient evidence of a let down from the previous high standards to justify j some action being taken. The university presiden. also an­ nounced that as a result of the in- -quiry the student council had placed ten students on probation as to con­ duct and classroom work for the re­ mainder of the collegiate year,' while the German club vigilance committee had suspended from the dance floor for various periods six men compris­ ing alumni, visitors and students,- and had warned others. • Town With Carolina Houses. Wilmington. — Annuncement was made here by the local factory of the Aladdin Company, manufacturing ready cut houses, that the company will develop a town, 20 miles south ,of Miami, Florida, to be known as Alad­ din City. As initially planned, the town will have 1,000 houses, all of which will be manufactured In Wilmington and ship­ ped by water to the new Florida town.

Dr. Clar­ ence True Wilson, that he personally "wished we had let the democrats nominate Al Smith on a wet platform" in'th'e 1924 campaign because John W. Davis and Charles W. Bryan, who made up the ticket, were “too good to waste on the situation" It would have been better, he said, to aave had "Smith, the wet Tammany heeler,” de­ feated by about 12,000,000 votes, as this would have “toned up moral sen­ timent” and been a pronounced de­ cision for enforcement. Tax Reduction Gains Attention. Washington.—Tax reduction gained immediate attention of the house as the new congress opened.

G. Morrison Dead. Spartanburg, S. C.—News was re­ ceived here telling of the death of Judge H. G. Morrison, 48, general counsel for the Clinchfield railroad, at Johnson City, Tenn.

C. MIRACLE PICTURE SEEN ON W ALL OF CATHOLIC CHURCH Worshipers See Outline of Madonna in Plaster Stain. _,•’ Kew l'ork.—Long island seems in a Iair way to have its own Lourdes. On the gray plaster wall of St, Mar­ tin’s Roman Catholic church at Central Park, L. I., has appeared recently a dark stain, marked with white, which in outline and appear­ ance suggests a faded likeness of'the Madonna. Like some of the "natural pictures” found in various parts of the world on rock formations, the fig­ ure grows in detail under concentrated scrutiny. Awed members of the parish, who have gazed on the "miracle” day after, day and declare that the mysterious figure is becoming clearer and clearer, say they can discern also an image of the Christ child in Mary’s arms, and point to a spot of light just below her throat as the Ikv1O above His head. They assert, too, that a dimmer halo is developing above the mother’s in­ clined head. Outside a church the casual ob­ server might take the phenomenon for a weather stain, which by some freak chance has formed itself into a re­ markable resemblance of a woman's face and torso. But whether the •’miracle” is the result of rain or is in truth a Divine manifestation the fact remains that Central park has become a Mecca for believers who liav'e heard of the figures and come to gaze reverently upon them.

At night the church is jammed, the worshipers standing in line to light vigil and votive lights ?n the al­ tar rail and at the foot of the statue Of St. Martin In honor of the myste­ rious figure. Rev. Daniel H. Dwyer, pastor of the church, who is known to his (lock as “Father Dan,” will venture no opinion as to the miraculous or com­ monplace nature of the phenomenon. “I am not In a positointo form an opinion yet,” he says. “I ^see no more than anyone else sees, but certainly the image of the Christ child Is clear.” • ?

Already women with !sickly and crippled children are be­ ginning to bring them to the sanctu­ ary, which is alight with candles from early mom until late at night.’' - No cures have been reported yet. Father Han says nothing has been done by those In authority in the diocese to make St. Martin's a shrine ^church. A member of the church board of trustees has given a possible explana tion of the “miraclh picture? Iiy re- -calling that a portion of the wall above '{the spot where the likeness appears was damaged by a storm a year ago when 'the church was nearing comple­ tion. He thinks, the wall may have become raia-soaked then, but feels the shape assutaed by the stains resulting would be none the less miraculous. Saiies Child Norristown Pa.—Louis N.

Chicago.—President Coolidge caine in to the middle west with a message of encouragement for the farmer. Addressing the annual convention, of the American Farm Bureau-fed­ eration, he predicted that,'in spite, of past and present adversities agricul­ ture as a whole will lead industry in future prosperity. Assailing legisla­ tive proposals savoring of paternal­ ism, he promised-to approve any ag­ ricultural plan "devised in accordance with sound economic principles.” ■ The President's audience which packed the ball fcfom of the Sherman hotel and represented farmers of 40 states, listened attentatively to the address which Jie read, with fer ges- turfes. A half dozen times he was in­ terrupted by applause but his defense of the tariff as an aid to agriculture and his arraignment of proposals' that the government: engage in the marketing of farm products or In price.fixing diriect Or indirect were greeted with silence, , At the conclusion of his address, however, the' audience rose and ap- -1 -;: - plauded. The President, who was accompan­ ied by Mrs. Coolidge, was in Chicago five hours. After his address he at­ tended a luncheorf given by farm bureau officials while Mrs. Coolidge iwas gust of honor at a similar Iunc- tion tendered by their wives. Crowds lining the streets of the business dis­ trict of tha city gave the distinguished.- visitor .an enthusiastic greeting as they, passed to and from the hotel in am uncovered automobile. One of the passengers of the Pres­ ident’s speech' which brought a round of appause, was a reference of ’ his life as a boy on the ’farm, and his contention that “we cannot stop with the mere acquisition of wealth.” Town With Carolina Houses. Wilmington. — Annuncement was made here by the local-dactory of the Aladdin Company, manufacturing ready cut houses, that the company will develop a town, 20 miles south of Miami, Florida, to be known as Alad­ din City, As initially planned, the town will have 1,000 houses, all of which will be manufactured in Wilmington and ship­ ped by water to the new Florida town. Nearly ^ne half of the total number of houses has already been fabricated. It is expfected that the entire order will be ready for shipment within the next.60 days. The houses will vary in size from five to 10. rooms. This is probably the .first instance o f a city in Florida being' buiit in North Carolina, and then shipped by boat to the southern state.

As a general rule one of the chief needs of the ration is additional protein. Additional protein for dairy cattle is furnished either by some good form of legume hay or by oil meal, cotton­ seed meal, gluten feed, wheat bran and cracked soy beans, or by a com­ bination of both. Cows which are heavy producers can make a profitable use of a larger fiercentage of these feeds in a ration than cows which are low producers. In other words, it is often practical to feed from two to three pounds of high protein concen­ trate to a five or six-gallon cow when It is not practical to buy any addi­ tional feed to balance up the ration for a two or tliree-gallon cow. The reason .for the difference is that the high producers will increase their pro­ duction on account of the added pro- ■ tein. ; A question which is often asked is. “Wliieli of these feeds shall I bnyV’ ,Illinois experiment station tests show ,but little difference. Therefore it is ilargely a question of available supply and relative cost.

In re­ cent experiments at Purdue, Ind., it was found that soy bean hogs put on weight at a cost of $3.75 per Iiundred weight against $6.04 for the tankage fed animals, and the rate of gain was almost as much. 1.62 pounds ner day against 1.65 pounds per day. The cost of corn and soy bean hogs, without the mineral mixture, was $5.88 per hun­ dred. All the lots had a legume pas­ ture. These results show that a pound of scy beans practically replaced a pound Cf tankage. On this basis, soy heans may he used if obtained at a lower cost per pound than tankage. Since soy beans can be produced on the ma­ jority of corn belt farms for consid­ erably less than the usual cost of an equal amount of tankage, they should be more generally used with corn and legume pasture for. fattening hogs. the Teu institut^ 23, ure ! ■ * * * * *rn” ** Bi de'ent 0 ,j s ? s n d e P o f Q u a rte rs f o r P u lle ts The young poultry stock should be shooed ,towards winter quarters by this 'une. csiiecially pullets Iiatched early enough to begin laying in October, 't hen the pullets put. on their red combs, they are nearing the period of fTg production, and any disturbance in quarters at this time will postpone the laying of the first egg. Haare the house Inoroughiv cleaned, and plan to get the, Do not get the idea that you can safely stop using lime just because the writer of popular articles has ques­ tioned its value. This advice comes from A. W. Blair, associate soil chem­ ist at the New Jersey College of Ag­ riculture, New Brunswick. In ex­ planation of this he says: “There are a few plants that do fairly well on an acid soil, but if you are engaged in general farming* or trucking where the supply of farm manure is limited, you will be abundantly rewarded for the judicious use of lime in some form. For the average soil, unless known to be highly acid, one to two tons of pul­ verized limestone p'er acre or the equivalent In another form, once In a four or five-year rotation, will usually be sufficient. “One who spends all his days on tlie farm, and observes carefully the effect of fertilizers and lime on sucli crops as clover, alfalfa,, and other soil-building legumes, is in a better position to measure the effect of lime on such crops than the one who makes an occasional visit to a farm or to some experimental plots. Heknows full well that commercial fertilizers cannot fully take the place of lime. “The soils gradually become add, not because of the fertilizers, but in spite of them, and lime or some other basic materials must bo added at in­ tervals to replace certain substances that are constantly being lost through drainage waters and the removal of crops. “IVlien mineral fertilizers have been used continually without lime or manure, it is practically impossible to get clover and alfalfa to grow, but add lime to this same land and vol­ unteer clover comes In, even to the partial exclusion of timothy and other grasses. TIiis fact has been demon­ strated many times on the soil fertility plots at the New Jersey agricultural experiment station.” Im p ro v e d O a t V a rie tie s D e v e lo p e d fo r N e w Y o rk A number of high-yielding oat vari­ eties have been developed by the New York state experiment station in co­ operation with the United States De­ partment of Agriculture. Six pf these varieties, the Comewell, ClofneIIIan1 Empire, Ithacan, Standwell. and Up­ right, are discussed In Department Circular 353 just issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. Tested on New York farms for (I pe­ riod of four years, 1921 to 1925, each of these varieties gave an average yield of more than 50 bushel? per acre. The Investigational work to develop these high-yielding varieties was under­ taken because of the important- place the oat crop holds in the agriculture of New York, and because the general average of the crop over the entire state has been 31.9 bushels per acre for the past 16 years. This low yield has been due In part to tlie use of poorly adapted and low-yielding varieties. During the six-year period from 1918 to 1923, inclusive, In experiments at Ithaca tlie CornelIian has produced decidedly the highest average yield, exceeding its nearest competitor, the Ithacan, by more than five bushels to the acre. The yield of the Cornellian was 58.9 bushels. A copy of the circular may be o3< tained, as long as the supply lasts, by writing to the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.

The amount, of nursery stock needed can be figured out and orders placed early with the nurseries. Nurseries usually fill orders in tlie order received. Another reason for early buying is that it pays to bave seedlings in the ground early in the spring. Seedlings should be planted before they have started their normal- growth.

Try this: - Raisin and Green Pepper With Lettuce.— Simmer one-biilf cupful of raisins in enough orange Juice to moisten well; when soft, aud a teaspoonful of lemon juice. Ar range sliced green pepper in rings on crisp lettuce and fill them with the softened raisins; pour over when serv­ ing: Boiled Fish.—Wrap a firm-ineated fish in cheesecloth and drop into boil­ ing salted water to cook until the fish flakes from the bones.. Drain and serve with: Holiandaise Sauce.—Wash one-half cupful of butter, divide into three pieces and put one piece into a dish with the yolks of two eggs, and a tablespoonful of lemon juice; work to­ gether until smooth, set over hot wa- ler, stirring constantly until the mix­ ture is well blended and the butter is melted, then add the second piece of butter ar.d sis it thickens the third- piece, taking the dish from the hot water occasionally to keep Ihe mix­ ture frptn curdling. SoaSon with salt and cayenne and serve at once. If Hie sauce docs curdle add' a table­ spoonful of thick cream or two table- (fiioonfuls of thick white sauce and -heat well with a Dover egg beater. This sauce is very appetizing with parsley on broiled steak. Orange Jelly Salad.—Makeonequan of orange jelly with prepared gelatin or with tlie following: Take two table­ spoonfuls of gelatin softened in one cupful of cold water, then add two cupfuls.-of boiling water, one-half cup­ ful of orange juice, tlie juice of a lemon and one-half cupful of sugar. When all the ingredients are well !trended, fill a wet ring mold with half the Telly and let stand in a refrigera­ tor until it begins to thicken. Mpnn- while, soften one small cream cheese with a to.-tspoonfiii of .cream and form into balls. Arrange the halts at inter­ vals in tile mold, add tlie rest of the gelatin Xud set on ice until stiff- Un c old on a Tied of Iittuce and till the center witli stoned white cherries filled with filberts. Serve with mayonnaise. Favorite Sandwiches. A. suggestion or two will oftep call forth something new in sandwich till-, ings. • The follow­ ing may be sug­ gestive of niunv others: Hot Ham Sand­ wiches. — Liglitly toast thin slices of bread on tmp side. Spread the tintonsteil s'ide with salad dressing; cover with let­ tuce leaves and on the lettuce place- very thin slices of hot broiled Innn Cover ham with another slice ol bread, toasted side up. Cut into tri­ angles and serve with sliced pickle. A dainty way to serve cucumber pickles is to cut them very thin, leav­ ing the stem end uncut, spread out in the shape of t> fan and use as a gar­ nish to a plate of sandwiches. Roist Duck j Sandwiches.—Remove the meat from the breast of a cold roast duck In thin slices. Sliread thill slices of brtytd with horseradish Liut- tfer, cover half of the slices with the meat, sprinkle with salt and pepper and gover the remaining slii-es witi. finely chopped celery and Beriniidn onion moistened with mayounaise. Al low pno-fourtli of an onion to a cupful Of celery. Put together in pairs, press the edges together and trim off crusts. Cut into halves .diagonally and serve With a spiced crabapple for each sand­ wich. Prepared ,Mustard. — Sift together two tahlespoonfuls of ground mustard one and one-half tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar and one tenspoonful of salt. Add one egg sligiitly beaten, three-fourths of a cupful of vinegar added slowly while stirring constantly Cook five minutes, remove from the heat, ahd add one tnblespoonfu! of olive oil very slowly, beating all the while. Use to spread on sandwiches when meat, or cheese are used for fill­ ing. Horseradish Butter. — Cream one cupful of fresh butter, then add fresh­ ly grated horseradish, a little at a time until tlie desired flavor and strength is obtained. Season with salt and pound in a mortar or work with a spoon until thoroughly blended. A few drops of vinegar may be added witli the horseradish if one likes. Egg and Andhovy Sandwiches.— Chop hard cooked eggs anil ipound to a paste with anchovies. Using two anchovies to each egg. Season with paprika, salt and a few grains of cayenne.. Moisten with salad dress­ ing. Spread thin slices of bread with mayonnaise and an equal number'with the egg mixture. Put together In pairs, press edges together, trim off crusts and cut into narrow strips. Serve with a dinner' salad. o n S U G G E S T IO N S O N E G G IN C U B A T IO N Incubation is the natural process through which the egg must pass to produce the chick. Our object, w-hcn hatching larger numbers of chicks, is to substitute, for the natural method of hatching with hens. The incubator has solved the problem. It has grown from the mere hatching boies to ma­ chines that are capable of produc­ ing a large percentage of strong, healthy chicks. Some hatching boxes ai-e still on tlie market; the medium to high priced incubators are the ones to purchase. The initial price is of small consideration when com­ pared with good' livable chicks. The lien prepares the egg. Her own­ er generally receives it -in good con­ dition. What lie does to the egg1 be­ fore it is actually placed in the in­ cubator, greatly influences its hatch- ability. The fresher the eggs, the larger the percentage of hatch will be and the stronger the chicks. The proper care of hatching eggs will increase tlie hatch. They should he turned daily if kept longer than five days. The best temperature is from 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit Genu development starts at 6S de­ grees, so care should be taken to see Iliat the eggs do not reach that point. .More eggs are ruined by becoming too warm before they are set than by chilling? When an egg is kept In a room where the temperature is 70 to 80 degrees, germ development starts. There Is not enough heat to continue incubation; consequently many embryos die then or during the first few days in the incubator. Un­ der such conditions, the eggs will show clear or nearly clear when candled on the eighth day. When ^electing ex incubator, be gov­ erned to a large extent by the ma­ chines that are. giving the best re­ sults in the community, not only for number of chicks hatched but for the condition of the chicks as well. There are two general types of smaller incubators—the hot-water and the hot-air. The- greatest problem with hn(-watef machines in general Is proper ventilation; moisture is the greatest problem in the hot-air ma­ chine. The water in the water-heated incubator does not influence moisture In the egg chamber. Lack of moisture means that there has been too great an amount of evaporation. In the water-heated machines the air docs not circulate so f rib ly. \yith slower moving air. there will he less evap­ oration. The fact that many of the smaller hot water incubators have very little ventilation, makes it nec­ essary to air ahd cool the eggs dally. The hot-air incubators are ' quite different. The heat is furnished by the air so it is necessary that the u!r he in more rapid motion. This causes greater ventilation and evap­ oration. hence moisture usually must be added. Ir: operating the incubator follow di­ rections. Most Incubator companies give very complete directions regard­ ing Uie operation and control of their machines. fniformit.v of temperature is a great controlling factor. An incubator run at a uniform temperature of 102 de­ grees will do better than one vary­ ing from 101 to 105 degrees, Gradual variation is not detrimental. Too high temperature lowers the vigor of tlie chicks. In some machines. It is considered tsest to start at 101 degrees, increase to 102 degrees the second week, and only allow the standard of 103 degrees to be reached a few days before the hatch. Above everything, the eggs should not get too hot.—Noel Hall, Extension Spe­ cialist, JIissouri state poultry experi­ ment station, Mountain Grove. S’a n ita ry P o u ltry H o u se Is N e c e ssa ry fo r E g g s Cliickens will not give adequate re­ turns in eggs or growth when kept un­ der insanitary conditions.

Dirty and Insanitary houses provide ideal breed­ ing conditions for insects and germs which are detrimental to poultry.

There was a momentary tremulousness, but almost instantly Jean had herself un­ der control; she was more the artist than I knew. I .began to realize bow far her artistry carried. “This Is news!" she cried. “When did—’’ She stopped short. A wave of color Hushed her face. Gerald did not admit of casual explanation. Spoof ‘and his wife and I still stood as though' rooted to the floor. The woman seemed to avoid my gaze, but when at times I caught a glimpse of her face there was something finer than embarrassment in it; there was embarrassment, it is true, but some­ thing almost seraphic as well. Suddenly. "I think we women should go over to Twenly-two.” Jean ex­ claimed. “Marjorie must know the great news. Come, Jerry !” At the door the collie joined them, capering uneasily In the snow. Spoof and I watched them as they took their way along the well-trodden trail across the gully; then we stabled his oxen in silence. Back in the house. Spoof drank a cup­ ful of tea and rolled me a cigarette— I never smoked cigarettes except un­ der Spoof's malign influence—before he showed a disposition to talk. Then, seated on one of my rough benches behind the blue haze of his own to­ bacco smoke, he spoke. “I married this woman that you know a,s Mrs. Alton five years ago Christmas day. You will understand why Jack's wedding was something of an anniversary to me. In course of time Gerald was born. ITp until then, and for some time afterward, every­ thing was all right. ' “Then — something happened. In what J chose to call righteous indig­ nation I turned her out. I’erliaps it was more mortified pride, or just blind, beast jealousy. Never mind. Through it all I gave myself credit for being just, even generous. I gave her half of my ready money, which wasn’> much; I’ve never been much of a money-grabber, Hall; it has always seemed such an inconsequential busi­ ness. But I gave her half of what I had, and settled on Gerald the small income I could command, and let her keep the boy. That was the biggest thing. I see a good deal of it through different light today, but for letting Iier keep the hoy I demand some credit still. I've done one or two liard things. Hall. You know. That was one of them.” He finished his cigarette and lit an­ other. “Then I cfline out here.” he contin­ ued. “It seemed the wisest thing to do. I was settling into the hope of for­ getting it all and making a new start, when she followed me.” He held up his hand as if to silence me, although I had made no move to speak. “I don't blame her—now,” lie said. “But then —last summer, you know—it rather Interfered. I may as well be frank with you. I had an . idea that Jean would just about complete section Two. She’s a wonderful girl, Jean. You know—the other day. . . . That was one of the hard things I was thinking about when I spoke of them a moment ago. ■ “Frank, glie lit a thousand old Sres of memory that morning. MoTing about in my room; sitting at my table; pouring my tea—G—d, man, do you understand? It was too much for any­ body. . . . I don't -know what would have happened. At any rate, I ask you to believe that I was making my fight. . . . Then you came.” He threw away half of an unsmoked cigarette and rolled another. “Then I spent some sleepless nights, Frank, old boy. I was glad you had' come, and even In my'gladness for that sometimes I wished you— We hu­ mans are such queer mixtures; beyond analysis. But the more I admitted these things to myself the more. I had also to admit that something might De said for Alice. Alice had once been to me all that it now seemed that Jean might be. I wondered if, by some miracle, that might not come again. Women are strange creatures. “Besides, I wanted tremendously to see the boy. . “S<5 yesterday I hitched the oxen and broke trail over„to ‘Widow Alton’s/ My afflictions had brought me to n sufficiently humble frame of mind to let Alice say her say. For awhile she couldn't say anything; just wept, you know, and cried my name over and ' over, and sometimes Gerald's. Mighty uncomfortable for a man standing around and feeling that in some way he’s to blame for it all. ‘‘Well, when we got down to facts she had come In the hope of raising money by means of homesteading so that she could educate the boy.^ But when she found, through' old Jake, .that ' I had-located here, she wasn't above following. And yet she was afraid of. me; afraid she’d meet me somewhere; afraid I’d come over to her homstead; and all the time hop­ ing I would! Women are strange creatures. “Well, we talked it all over, and”— Md for the first time In his narrative Spoofs face lighted with a gentle smile —“I didn’t go back to Two last night at all. We’re planning a sort of quin­ quennial honeymoon progress about the district, and, properly enough, our first call is at Fourteen.. And now that that’s off my chest, behold a man happy once more? I ant amiized at the folly that denied me all these years— Men, too, are strange creatures. “There's just one thing—a very In­ significant thing compared with Alice's happiness, and mine, and Gerald’s,' but it’s this: In taking up her homestead she had to declare herself a widow. She hid it for the boy's sake, and she knows she will have to give up the claitu, but will she get into further trouble? Will they let it go at that?” That was a poser, and I turned it over in my mind tor some minutes. “Better see Jake about that,” I sug­ gested. “He'll find a way.” “Thai's right!” snid Spoof. “Juke's the boy. And he owes me something yet on that cogitation nut transaction. “Just one more thing,” Spoof re­ sumed. after a little. “I’ve told you a great deal more than. I propose to tell anyone else. It seemed to me that yon—and Jean—had a peculiar right to know.” It had been arranged that' during the busy season I should take my uieals at Jack’s, and Jean IiaJ volun­ teered the duty of carrying my after­ noon lunches to the Held. There was little .time now for either poetry -or prose, and yet we lived amazingly in the spirit. Between the plowhandles one must think of something, and I re­ called and re-recalled those things I had read during the-winter. At lunch time, or In the evenings, I would talk of them with Jean, always trying to approach her from some new and un­ suspected angle. As, ' for instance, when a summer shower threatened us, I quoted (I had borrowed a Shelley from Spoof): ‘I brine fresh showers for the thirst- iiiff flowers. From the seas and the stream; I bear light shade for the leaves when laid In their noonday dreams. From my wings are shaken the dews that waken The sweet buds every one—” One evening Spoof came over, car­ rying his gun. “There’s good crane shooting out at Reed lake," he said. “Brown and I were up last night; got four beauties. Jean seems to be shooting rather well; thought you and she might like to go out on a crane hunt, so I brought over my gun." “But you—you'll come won't you?” “No. not this time," said Spoof, sagely. “I've got all I can use for some days." Jean was enthusiastic, so we quit work early the next afternoon and drove to Heed lake, about seven or eight miles to the west. I fastened a horse blanket to the side of our wagon, dropping one edge to the ground. In front of it I spread another on the grass, and here we sat, sheltered from the cool night breezes that came solemnly whispering over the tops of the reeds that bordered the, lake. Jean seemed to doubt the efficiency of any method of liunting that con­ sisted in sitting down Ueside a horse blanket and waiting for the* game to come up and be shot. She could un­ derstand crawling for a hundred yards, head down and heels down, except as a waving foot might serve to sema­ phore her signals. , But to sit and wait. . . She was counting stars. ‘There they come!” I suddenly breathed, scarce daring t« whisper, as a new note came up from the water. Quietly—quietly.” We rose to our feet and stalked silently to the water’s edge. There was nothing to be seen. We were sur­ rounded entirely by reeds higher than our heads. We were sinking slowly in the moist mud; water was trickling through the lace holes in my boots. “We'll have to go In," I whispered. “Are .you game?” I felt the pressure of her free hand upon my' ann. “Anywhere—with you.” So we stepped quietly but boldly into the water. It came to the ankles, the calves, the knees. jTlien we were through the reeds and the lake lay be­ fore us, dim and misty, like a sheet of frosted glass. ‘•We’ll wait here. If we’re lucky they’ll come our way." ' Out of the air came a rushing. Great wings beat almost upon our heads. But they came and were gone before we knew It. “Just a couple of strays beating around the lake,” I explained. “We’ll wait for the waders." Presently, and without notice save the soft splashing of water, they came wading down thte shallows clqse to where we stood, their great bodies dim and dark against the frosted glass; tIieli/-long necks stretched high, or grabbing in the reeds beside them. One—two—three—four—five—six; on they came. “Take tlie first twj>; I'll take the next.” '• •-/ Our guns came to our shoulders In the darkness; we looked, rather than , sighted, at the great birds scarce ■ rod away; then—right barrel —left-bar- rel!—we woke the echoes of the lake and filled the air with 'tempestuous noises. From every side came the splash of water and the rush- of wings. Tlie stillnessT'the gentleness of the night In a moment became the wildest babel of confusion. But we had no thought for that. Splashing right before us were_^reat forms; flapping, struggling, eddying about. I would have held Jean back but she rushed ahead of me. Into the melee. She had one by the neck; the lust of killing was upon her; it was a fight to a finish. . . . Afterward we dragged them out^three of them. Jean declared there had been another, but he managed to hide himself in the rushes. Then we built a fire beside the wil­ low ayl warmed' ourselves. Before the water was warm enough for bathing I sent to Regina for a bathing suit. “The gaudiest thing you have,” I said, and they tool; me at-my word. It was a great day when I made my appearance in it; In the evenings, after a day of dust In the fields, we reveled in the cool waters of our pond. Jean would race me from end to end, but she was much too good a swim­ mer for me. Then came one of those*rare sum­ mer nights—rare on the prairies— when the air does not cool off with I Found the Stone With the Matches; I Struck One; Its Light Glowed Genially in My Face.'' the approach of evening, and all the lieat of day seems . hemmed in by black clouds crowding- overhead. I had gone to bed, but not to sleep. The far away flashing of heat lightning continuously lit my room with a vague twilight; my blankets had become un­ bearable* and I threw them off. TKe silence was Intense; the very night seemed to brood over me; the perspira­ tion stood out upon me. It took me back to the hot nights of the Bast, so little known with us, and from that starting point my mind went wander­ ing down through old ways, down to. the dam and the millwheel and the little lioy and girl who were the start­ ing point of all my recollections. Jean it had been then; Jean it was, with whom all my thoughts were linked; Jean was still the Innermost hope of my heart. I had waited patiently as I could, and the spring and summer months had seen arise between us an affection deeper, vaster, wider than anything I had known in those days when we had talked, of love together. Our world had grown and we had grown with it. Ours was continually the spirit of the new adventure; con­ tinually a faring forth,Into the un­ known. Rut I had not talked of fove. It had been my conception of artistry to speak no more of love, daring all my hope in the prospect that the fires which I guessed had been rekindled in Jean’s .heart would in time'burst all her womanly restraint. Then she would come' to me. Jean was big enough for that. I Iiad tried to follow her In spirit through the torment of those days after Spoofs revelation. I had guessed how hard it had been for her, and I kept silence. - I conceived that that W^s artistry. But there must be an end some time—sometime soon. I was not all artist, like Jean.' Artistry was my .means, to an end. There must be an end. . . . Whlcii would be the be­ ginning. . . . ■ Came a fapping on my window. I sat up quickly. “Frank?” “Yes?” “Asleep?” ‘■‘Not within miles, of Jt.. Whew.! Ever see aT-Blght like this?” “I had. -thrust my head through the open win­ dow and cOuld see her form dinily.out- lined against the night. “Used, to be the usual thing, down East," she answers! “But wejfet out of the way of them, here. Get Jip and let’s go for a swim.” A flash of lightning revealed her In her bathing'lnit. I was soon1 out of bed and into mine. “Beat you to the other end of the pond,” she said, as we threaded our way down the well worn path. “You always beat me,” I confessed. “But I’m game; I’ll try again.” We took the water together; its com­ forting tide wrapped us about as we" swung through it with long, easy strokes. Jean suited her pace to mine; her body was a rhythmic machine, Uthe,-supple, almost serpentine in its movements. Her hair was down. When a glow of distant lightning fell about us her face was ivory . white, catneolike, against the black water. At the far end was a small beach of sand, and we drew ourselves up upon it. Jean drew her feet up tailor-wise, shook out her hair; {raced idly with Iier fingers in the sand. “I had a dream, Frank,” she said at length. “I dreamed you were wrecked on a lonely island, where you seemed doomed to spend all your days. But one night when you were sleeping a nymph of the wilderness stole up and whispered something in your ear. And this is what she said; ‘Go down to the beach at midnight and light a /ire on the siind, and a beautiful maiden shall come up out of tlie sea. Take her; she Is yours.' “And you turned in your sleep and said, ‘Mine—forever?’ And the nymph said, ‘Forever, if you will obey the law.’ . “And you said, 'What law?’ And the nymph said, ‘Tlie law of romance, which is the law of life. If you are trye to that law she shall be yours not only now, but forever, and this shall no longer be a lonely island, but a place called Paradise.' And then I woke up.” “That was a very wonderful dream, Jean,” I said. “A very wonderful dream.” / “And I have been wondering, Frank,” she continued, her liquid voice drop­ ping very low and soft, “I have beeTT- wondering if you were to light a fire on this beach—what would happen,” “It WrOuId be an interesting experi­ ment,” I agread, “but I have no matches.” ■ “I have provided against that. See, on this stone afe matches, and beside it wood for a fire.” • “Jean!” I exclaimed, a great light breaking about me, I extended my arms toward her; I would have rushed to her. but she evaded me. “Suppose you try the experiment. Frank,” sue said. “Let us see if there Is anything in dreams.” I found the stone with the matches; I struck one; its IIg-Iit glowed genially in my face. I found the little pile of dry wood-which she had gathered to­ gether; I knelt and set my match to if. I think in that moment I felt some­ what like a god before an altar;- a whiff of fragrant willow smo»:e tilled my nostrils like incense. Then I stood up and looked around for Jean. She was gone. My little fire crackled and burned up merrily, sending its shaft of pale blue smoke heavenward in the night. The distant clouds still lieliographed each other across the sky; their flash­ lights biinked on the surface of our pond from time to time. ^ Then I sat down and tried to recall what Jean Iiad said. “A beautiful maiden shall come up; . . . Take her. . . . She Is yours—forever— if you obey the law." “I will—I will obey!’’ I breathed. Out on the dark water glowed a phosphorescent point. It drew stead­ ily, straight toward me. It was the ripple of white water as a silent graceful figure cleft the tide In two. Onward she came, steadily, stroke by stroke. A flash of distant lightning lit her face cameo-like against the depths behind. , She had touched the sand; she drew up from the water; she stood before me. I took her In my arms. “Dreams do ,come true, if they’re properly staged,” she said when she could speak.

Package Did Not Contain Expected Ring, but She Became Engaged. By MARION R. REAGAN ISS M E L IN D A BROWN, spinster, had been 'waiting all year for Peter Moffat to propose. In fact, ever since they had met some two years before, she had felt that Peter coaid be brought around to take the “big plunge” with her into the sea of matrimony, but things had not gone on so well as she could have hoped. She was snre Peter loved her, but he was an extremely shjr man and-it re­ quired no little pushing to get him up to the point Several times Melinda thought she “had” him. She had given him every opening by referring coyly to her “own little home—if she ever had one,” and to her “lonely life at present,” bat Peter only sat si­ lent at such re­ marks, ignoring them completely, or stupidly tell­ ing her that after all, many people led more lonely ■lives than she, and not to be so discontented. Melinda looked forward to the a p p r o a c h in g Christmas season with glee. Surety he would give her a ring for Christ­ mas, after these months of courting. The season .advanced and Christmas arrived bringing a "parcel from Mr. Moffat and a note sent from Chicago. Melinda’s heart sank when she saw the postmark. “Out of town for Christmas. Then It Is all off,” she said sadly. She glanced at the pack­ age-ten Inches square—surely no en­ gagement ring In that.” Slowly she untied it. It was writing paper. /She opened the letter from him and read: “Just a Christmas greeting, hoping r'you will write to , me frequently. I shall be in Cliicago for several months. “Sincerely, “PETER MOFFAT.” Furious, Melinda tore the note Into bits. “I shall never look at him again,” she breathed. “And after the way I’ve run after him ! But that’s been the trouble. Tve run after him too much. (I shall never write to him. From this out I shall never speak to him again—never speak to him again!” she repeated emphatically. £.nd Melinda kept her word. . Peter Moffat was growing a little uneasy. Three months had passed and no word from Melinda. It finally be­ came too much even for the patiept Mr. Moffat He felt his temper rising steadily against Melinda. "Thinks she can play a ga:ae like that, eh? Run after me wijile Pm In town andi then drop me when I go away. Probably after some other man now.” This thought brought crimson flashes of jealousy to the already highly colored cheeks of Peter Moffat. ‘‘By George no woman vylll make a fool out of * ,exploded. “I'll gd to Spring- field tonight and TH make her mam- me.

But the promise of the ultimate success of an undertaking often justifies the ac­ cumulation of debt against the day when established earning power will attract new partnership capital.

At least any little ray of ope in this direction is to be wel- pmed and we trust that our slow- Ig up and economy thinking will suit in some sane procedure. - We Iive had very little of such lately, uion Republican. as The Land of Ophir in - South America? lThe mention of Ophir, the land gold, whose mines contributed the spendor of King Solomon's pple, still stirs the fancy. Since exandrian times fortune hunters, bhacologists and explorers have nght the country of ivory, apes L peacocks. To the many spo­ liations on the exact--locations Cif- bhir a new one has just been add- From Vienna Dr. Van Hauch orts that he has discovered that Shir lay in the Western Hem- bere; that the Ibng voyage ich kept Solomon's fleed abroad three years took it to South A- iriea. )r, Von Hauch has been explor- I the furests of Peru.

Wood of Indiana, chairman of the Repu­ blican congressional committee, has gone to Florida to ascertain how much hope there would be, if any. of establishing a Republican party in that State might hope to chal­ lenge the rule of the Democrats If some hope is found' in the Florida situation it is found in the Florida si-nation it is likely .Lhat Mr. Wood will look into conditions as they exist. What has encouraged Republi­ cans in Florida is that a vast num­ ber of people have gone there from the north and west, and the idea is to get them well into the Republi­ can fold before they form the habit of voting the Democratic ticket on the theory that there is little else to vote for. In the last general election sev­ eral Florida towns were carried by the Republicans and it is believed that the party has a wonderful op­ portunity to build up a strong, virile organization in that State. At any rate it is worth trying and Mr Wood is going to look into the matter thoroughly.--Ex. J. I. Green Resigns. J. Zebitlon Green, a Union coun­ ty editor and all around busy man has recently resigned a position he had held since last April, with the Farmers Co-operative marketing association as publicity agent. Since entering the service in April he has, according to his own sum­ ming up. conducted a self-support­ ing campaign of publicity with 19 different publications in the State,- in.iaddition‘to; getting' out 'the Cot ton Grower at Raleigh. On being interviewed as to the prospect for the marketing organization, he ex­ pressed the hope that some suc­ cess might be reached by 1 9 5 5. He thinks the biggest obstacle in the movement is its magnitude, and one of its greatest burdens is car­ rying too many high salaried of» ficials.

It’s no sixteen page edition that expresses big men’s views, And it’s not filled up with pictures, nor with telegrahic news; It isn’t printed daily, with an “ex­ tra” every hour, And the editor’s not bragging of his influence and power, It may have its faults and errors, but these I will forgive, For it’s printed in the country, ‘way back w.iere I used to live. It’s only issued weekly, and it’s not made UJ^ for style, \ But when it arrives I gladly put the daily by awhile, I don’t read in its pages what the wise and great men say. But I see that “Silas Jiggers brought some wood to town todav.” Aud that "Grandma Parks is bet­ ter,” or that “Old Bill Jones is dead.” And it tells just what the pardon in his Sunday sermou said. I see again the faces of the friends I used to know In the dim and distant fancies of the happy Long Ago, And I read 1Jup in one corner that the Fall ivinds howl and blow, And that “Uncle Nathan Smith pre­ dicts an early fall of snow” , Or that ”our debating club will give a social next week, At which our fellow-townsman, Abner Brolherton, will speak.” There are never learned essays on the question of the day, But it saiys that “ folks are looking for another raise in hay,” Tfehri^see'hb'graringheaMHnesdf'the last election fighc, But it says that "Tom Shaw mar­ ries Ella Edgertori tonight” ; Aud my thoughts ^.somehow grow fonder when the old folks nanies I see, Telling that "Reverend Tompkins was invited there for tea,” It may be crude and homely—that same littlecountry sheet,- And the make-up of its pages may be rather obsolete;" It is damp when I unfold it, and the print is sometimes blurred; Yet it’s always more than welcome, and I read its every word And no reading to a city man a greater joy can give, Than the little country weekly, printed “ where he used to live.” And They Call It The “Land of . Flowers.” Monroe Enquirer , Frank Lancy. popular Seaboard conductor, relatives the following yarn: A tourist went in his flivver to Florida, and when night came there was no room in the hotels and he even encountered difficulty in find ing parking space on the streets.’ At last he came to a residence with a good-sized yard. He drove in and asked the lady of the house if he might stay there that night. “Yes,” she replied but the price will be one dollar. The money was paid. However, after failing to make himself com fortable in the car for the night, the man spied a hammock on the porch of the residence, He asked if he might be allowed to occupy it for the night. * Yes,” was the reply; “two dol­ lars. please;” ' The money was paid and the man slept in the swing. Next morning however, he decided to get an early start and on; reaching his automo bilb he disgbVbred two men in it, fast asleep. . ; “ What you. fellows doin’ in my car”?, the traveler indignantly de­ manded. , • ■ “You car!” was the reply from the two men. “ Why the lady who lives In that bouse charged us $2 each to sleep here.” "That’s one way making money in the Land of Flowers,” was Mr, Laney’s comment.

The Greenfield, Tenn., Gazette says: “It may be said that Crandad never saw a movie, a ball game, or listened to-a radio set or owned a flivver. Heneverhad tow ait in a barber shop until a girl got her neck shaved and he never went in swim- riling WtthThe ladie'fhe rievfer drank, near beer and he never divorced grandma; he never shot a filling sta­ tion bandit There are a lot of things ithat he did, But did you ever stop to think that he was never be­ hind with his work, and he alwavs was right up to the scratch when it came to paying his bills? And a lot of his offsprings could get a lot more out of life if they conld say the flame thing for themselves.” Yefll It doeB Beem that Grandad miss­ ed a lot, but there are probably a good many of his descendants who would be a good deal better off if' they lacked quite a few of the things that they do have At any ra'e.

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judsea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem Saying; where is lie. that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. .And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born. And .they said to him, In Beth­ lehem of Judsei; for this is written bv the prophet. And thou Bethlehem, in the land of J tide, art not the least among the princes ot Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people of Isrea-1. TheA Herod, when he had privi­ ly called the wi.’e men. enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared And he s;nt them to Bethlehem and said Go and search diligent Iy for the young > hild, and when ye have found him, b ing me word, again, that I nny come and wot- ship him also. When thev had heard the king, they departed; and, Io the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was When they saw the star, they, re­ joiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come iuto the house, they saw the young chiid with Mary his mother, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treisures. they presented ttuto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh. And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

Kew lork.—The Soreigs policies of the Cooiidge administration and the reaoOOa behind them were explained here by Secretary Kellogg, of the state department.'in a speech running tne whole scale from the Sakletavala exclusion case to the Locarno security treaties. Us,ng a meeting ot the council of foreign relations as his forum, the- secretary addressed these pronounce­ ments to American citizens and to for­ eign chancellories: : A warning to American bankers against “indiscriminate” loans to Ger­ man states and municipalities, al­ though the state department “has not felt itself called upon to object Eg such loans as against the public interest . ReafCirmation of the government’s desire to cooperate in European re­ habilitation but keep clear of European politics. A declaration that we set as much store “by the spirit of Locarno as upon the treaties of Locarno.” ^ An expression of hope that China will realize her-'dspirations for free­ dom from unequal treaties. An exposition and reiteration of the American war debt funding policy. A defense dt his own action in ex­ cluding aliens who desire “to teach their pernicious doctrines of com- - munism” in this country. Mr. Kellogg spoke from a prepared manuscript, with every evidence of consciousness that his words would be heard around the world. It was disclosed that the address was regarded as of such importance that the section dealing with foreign debts and that touching upon the American attitude toward European conferences, although it contained no direct reference to the Geneva disarm­ ament movement, had been cabled In full by the state department to Ameri­ can diplomatic missions in Europe. t - - Shipping Board Rians Opposed.. Washington.—Continuance of the government’s existing merchant' ma rine organization-with greater concen tration of power in the shipping board, a plan contrary, to the views of Presi­ dent Coolidge, was recommended An a democratic insurgent majority report of a special bouse committee. Concurred in by the three demo1 -crats of the committee and. Repre sentative Cooper, republican, Wiscon­ sin, the report opposed concentration ot authority in a' cabinet officer and endorsed the interpretation the board has made of its own ,rights. . The three regular republican members of the cofnmittee, in a minority report, ad, vocated independence of the fleet cor- poration from the board- in the opera­ tion ot ships, and recommended reor­ ganization of the existing system along the lines prepared by President Cool-, idge in his message to Congress. The majority report, recommended that the board elect, its own chairman and continue “to determine the estab­ lishment, increase or discontinuance of trade routes and sBervices1 including the number and character of ships to, ‘ bd operated, and the frequency of sail­ ings." Operation of ships, it said, should be given to officials appointed by the board, but having a “free hand” in the management. The board should be independent and not subservant to the President, it held and "we deem it better for m atters of policy to be determined by a board coming from all sections ot the country. - Income Tax Bill Approved. W ashmgton--The sweeping reduc­ tions in income taxes proposed in the revenue bill were approved by the house. The pew rates provide for a cut in the maximum surtax from 40 to 20 per cent and for reductions in all the- normal taxes. Alleged Distiller Slain. Norfolk, V a.-C. L. Tennant, of [ Portsmouth, a native of Seattle, Wash., was shot and killed in Nanse- mond by Deputy Sheriff J. J. S.

Chapman Loses Fight For Life. Hartford, Gonn.-The application ot Gerald^Chapman, notorious bandit and slayer of a New Jbntain .policeman, for a writ of habeas corpus requiring bis return to the Atlanta penitentiary to serve out a 25 year federal sentence before the state of Connecticutt may. execute him for the murder, was de nied by Judge Edwin S. Thomas of the U. S. District Court for Connec­ ticut!. Chapman is under a second reprieve which expires March 3. next. Propaganda Used Against Nation.. New York.—John Barrett, former United States minister to the Argen­ tine and other South American coun­ tries, addressing the opening session of the Pan-American Commercial Con­ gress, said that Russian ’ Bolshevlki are broadcasting propaganda through­ out South American against the Unit­ ed States. Other European nations also are is­ suing propaganda-in Latln-America un- favorable to the United States, Mr. Barrett said, but he did not name any nations except Russia.

Two Killed at Ridge Spring Crossing. Ridge Spring, S. C.r-Gerald Watson, 46 years old, president of the Farmers and Merchants Bank of” this place and one of the most prominent men of this section of the State, and Miss Louise Jones, his wife’s sister, were killed when Southern passenger train No. 8 struck and demolished the automobile in which they were riding. The accident occurred” at a crossing about one-mile out of Ridge Springs Mr. Watson was driving. It was .thought that a denBe -fog, prevailing at the tim e;' obscured the -driver’s view. Miss .

Why do I have: to have these ugly pimples, blotches and blackheads? ,-It I could ohly find something that would clear up my skin and give me back my soft, rosy complexion: I know I would be the happiest girl In the world: What cat I dol­ ls that you talking? If It Is, you don’t have to worry a minute! Just build up the rich, red blood In your body. Then your skin will be as clear and soft as anybody's. That s what S. S. S. has been doing for generations^helping Nature build rich, red blood! You can build rau- blood-cells so fast that the- Impurities that cause breaking out on the skin hardly get into the system before the pure blood annihilates them — kills them right out— stops them from breaking out through the skin. And then'this rich, red, pure blood feeds and nourishes the Usbuob of the skin and keeps it looking healthy. That’s all there Is to it. Healthy, vigorous, red blood such as S. S. S. helps N a tu r e build, makes you healthy all over. It beautifies your skin— drives away pim­ ples, blackheads, blotches, rash, holla and eczema—gives.you back your ap­ petite—builds firm, plump flesh and fills you full of new life and energy.

It is at this time of the year, when win­ ter merges into midseason, that , the advantages of the cloth co^t over Ithq one all of fur, Is really appreciated. Soon as the temperature ” begins to there Is nothing quite-, so effective as a dashlngly -gay piece- of cretonne.
