Bailey, foreman of the Brown Furniture Co., of Salisbury, is visiting home folks at Cana. In the recent trial before a Unit­ ed Slates commissioner in New Bern where a number of Craven county election officials were tried, charged with violating the election laws, Governor McLean sent one of the “ Bevo” assistant attorney generals at the expense of the tax­ payers of the State to defeat these men. Instead of furnishing coun­ sel to prosecute these alleged vio­ lators of the law he sends an at­ torney to defend them. Can you visualize, such a state of affairs as this in your mind in a civilized county? Justw hatsteps will the State Democratic ring next take to keep themselves m power? . | Italldepends on whose ox is! gored. Money and politics cuts a ! big swath in some sections. . I Lucky Boys. It seems that the North Carolina State prison management under the direction of Governor McLean, his pet political superintendent and the rubber stamp board of directors use partiality in the way of punish­ ment. Bankers especially are given soft jobs and are allowed to do just about as they please and go and come when they’ please. Dur­ ing the past week Thomas Maslin, president of the defunct Merchant Bank and Trust company, of Win- ton-Salem, was allowed to come home, in citizens clothes, without any guard whatever and as far as we known may be allowed to spend the holiday season here. And we note where another convict-banker, Clem Wrenn, of Wilkesboro, is ill and is being treated at a Raleigh hospital. The prison 'hospital was' not good enough for Wreun and when he gets sick he is carried to an outside hospital and there treat­ ed at the expense of the taxpayers of the State. A negro steals a chicken, or a poor white man with­ out friends, forges a check for a small amount and is sent up for a long term. If he gets sick he is treated in the prison hospital and not sent to the outside. He is never allowed a trip home to see his people and even when his mother dies, as was the case with a prisoner from Forsyth a few years ago, he is not allowed to come to her funeral, yet Thomas Maslin is allowed “leave of absence” and even appropiated the court house to hpld.a. .r.eceptipn, ,,,.Such is . blind justice.—Union RbpubHcah.; I. Goods Box Whittier. I got the following dope, out of the Yellow'Jacket. “ Sure, Democracy is not dead, but that Tammany cat-bite is going to make it sickly for a long time. “ If more midnight oil was burn ' in-the study lamp and less in the automobile transmission, there’d be less funerals. “ Now, what have you to say a- bout the Ku Klux and .the' Anti- Saloon League and the heretic Pro­ testant preachers, Al? “So, Josephus Daniels want be Secretary of the Pope’s Navy, and Clyde Hoey will never be Uuited State Senntor from North Carolina. ‘'Al Smith might have won if he hadn’t been a Democrat in a ,Re­ publican country, a wet in a dry' country, and a Catholic in a Pro­ testant country. The worst discredited politicians in this country are the men who gallopped around trying to prove all the creditable things said about Hoover were miths. “ America is still a constitution al Republic where you think as you wish and speak as you think, thanks to the women patriots, but no thanks to the pie crazed; politi­ cal leaders. , ' Vc “Poor Jack Johnson won’t get his position in the Presidential cab­ inet, and his white wife won’t be able to sit a social soiree in the White House aloug with the Dunns and Raskobs. ” Now there is more truth in the above than many will want, to ab- mit. It is the truth that hurts—not goo I people, but the bad H o w . drunk must a man get to be arrested? We don’t know. The “Pound Of Flesh” MayBackfire. "Unprecedented in the political history of our country” says the New Dern Times, “ was the- bitter­ ness that marked the campaign just closed, and although it may sound like a paradox this bitter­ ness still exists to an alarming de­ gree. While DemocraticleadersTp Washington have outwardly indi­ cated their desire to let the ‘dead past bury its dead' such is not the case with a preponderate number of their constituents who ardently supported the 'Hapless Warrior’ and are still brooding over the an- niPilatory defeat administered him Thase disgruntled and vindicative die-hards, like Shylock of old, -are demanding in stentorian tones their pound of flesh, and like all tyrants they want the blood to run from the veins of patriots. Their insati­ able desire to punish every Demo­ crat who oppesed the Houston no­ minee is but another evidence of assininity on their part and not conductive to the. upbuilding .and harmoniousness of the party- to which they boastfully claim alle­ giance. “Every day it becomes more manifest that if the recent volcanic eruption in the ranks of Democracy has not entirely . obliterated every vestige of leadership, ^ concerted and immediate1 effort should be made to silence these blantant and arrogant individuals, who by '-iheir captions and censorious spirit are rekindling the fires of dissension frpm-which the- Tfemoorats. have-sd keenly and disastrously suffered ,in the past. Bickering and internal strife have more than once sub­ merged the party in hot water and unless the prevailing spirit of re­ prisal among some of the self-styled ‘loyal’ Democrats is chloroformed, the 1932.campaign will-merely be a repetition of the recent debacle. “ Conscientious men and women of the South who opposed Gover- □or Smith—sarcastically referred to as 'Hoovercrats' by the ‘loyal’ Democrats—need no brief written in support of their conduct. They exercised the rights of American citizens and in-doing so their loyal­ ty and attachment to the principles laid down by Thomas Jefferson suf­ fered no diminution whatever ” Ruling Surry From Ral­ eigh. In the recent election in Surry county one of the main issues which faced the voters was to get rid of-Frank Folger, known as the czar of the county and abolish the office of county auditor. Dr. Bernard, Republican candi­ date for the Legislature made his campaign on this issue' and every candidate of the Repnblican party was likewise pledged to get rid of the Fogle rule. The people rose in their might and with a majority of more than a thousand votes defeated the Sur­ ry Democratic ring and Monday, December 3, every elective office in Surry that was before the people in November was filled by a Repu­ blican. But no sooner had the three Re- pubican county commissioners tak­ en their seats than Frank Folger, appeared before the board and drew from his pocket a commission from Governor McLean ie-appoint- ing him auditor of Surry county, . Are the people of Surry; not fit to elect tbeir own officers atid con­ duct their own county . affairs and say who shall fill these offices that the governor of the State has to name a man to rule over them? Such an act is repugnant to honest citizens and is deeply resented by the citizens of Surrry coudty who thoii’ bt when they, voted they were getting rid of the Folger ring in Surry county? . Surely there is some way to reg­ ister the will of the people as reg­ istered as the ballot box without allowing a man from Rpbeson county, many mile's away to say who shall handle the affairs of the county. The commissioners may find a way to curb this Stirry county czar. We hope they may. If there is any way to refuse to pay him a salary this might be one way of getting rid of him for stop the pay of one of these Surry county Fol- gers and they will mighty quickly cease to pretend to do any work. Surry Democrats should be a- shamed of themselves to even at­ tempt to rob the Republicans of their well-earned victory in this manner.—Union Republican. Installments. People who worry about other people’s business are alormed by the growth of installment buying. “ People are living beyond their means,” they say; “ they are buy­ ing things they don’t need, and go­ ing in debt for luxuries, and it’s wrong. It’s foolish to buy luxuries until you have saved the money to pay for them.” That is good thrift talk. But there is another side of the story. Life is short. If you wait until you can pay cash you may die with­ out, a chance to enjoy the things you desire. Or you may grow old and lose- the capacity to enjoy things. • j, .The.time . to . order; a: dinner is when you’re hungry. - Thetime to" engage the fiddler is while you’re yo'ung enough to dance. Buying on credit isn’t living be­ yond your means.- If you must save so much a month in order to something you desire, and can save that much a month, it doesn't make a particle of diffennce whether you do the saving before or after you do the buying. . ! Installment buyers do buy things they don't need, but as a rule they buy with money that would be thrown away. If you deny your­ self a radio, phonograph, car,.kitch­ en caDinec or any other luxury that can be had on easy payments, the money that would have paid for it is spent in nickels and dimes and at the end of the year you don’t know what became of it. The thing paid for with money you would have thrown away isn’t an extravagance. It’s a gift.' Luxuries make life more enjoy­ able and lift you to a higher plane. Thereis heither virture. nor profit in doing without things that make life more pleasant, and if you do without things ypu might have and could pay for, you aren’t giving yourself a square deal. Installment buying can be over­ done. You can ‘ ‘bite, off more than you can chew.” Or you can spend money for foolish things when you should be spending it for sensible things. But that,is no indictment of the easy-payment plan. People who pay cash will spend money foolishly if they are foolish people. A financial panic would wreck things, of course. That is a risk everybody runs. But no panic is on the harizon. And meanwhile there’s no sense in going without anything at all to eat just because the roast isn’ t done. —Ex. There were no disturbances in the Nicaraguan election because the-prospective disturbers were a. fraid somebody would tell it to the marines.' nm nniiiniunnnm innm nnm inrniinmiiniunimimmimnr .

Mocksville’sfirst c o m m u n ity Christmas tree was enjoyed by all the grownups as well as the small children. The North Carolina legislature will meet n ext Wednesday. We will hope for the best but prepare for the worst. The fellows who took on too much Christmas bug juice are the same ones who swore last year that they would never do such a thing again Next week North Carolina will have a new Governor, together with many new senators and represen­ tatives. They will be asked to come to the rescue of the over­ burdened taxpayers. We shall watch results. The year 1929 will be just what we iaake it. If everybody will boost and nobody knock, our town is in a fair way to get some new en­ terprises before another year rolls ' around. Let every man and woman do everything possible to make this a bigger and better town. The citizens of Monksville will soon vote on whether the town will sell its power station and lighting system to the Southern Public Utility Co. We understand that this company has offered the town $75,000 for the system. So far as we can learn most of the voters stem to Be in favor of selling. The: Record has been criticised severely for not printing the full particulars about the arrest of some local citizens and the capture of a quantity of whiskey by the sheriff in Mocksville some time ago. There are three newspapers in Davie county—two Democratic and one Republican. Sofaraswecanlearn neither of the Democratic papers printed a word about the matter. The: Record will publish the trial of all persons in Davie county, re­ gardless of who they are, when a court record is made. We do not publish the name of every man and wo man who is arrested in the coun­ ty. Many times they are not. re­ ported to us. Some of those who. do the criticising are ihe same ones who have asked that their names be left out of the papers when they were in trouble. We don’t want to offend anyone, but if the officers want' the names of all arrests published and give them to us, we will do the rest. Stfcwart-Durham. A telegram was received by Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Stewart on Satur­ day evening Dec. 22 announcing the marriage of their daughter Miss Mabel Stewart to John E. Durham by Rev. J. T. Murry, Baptist min­ ister at the Pastorium in Winston- Salem. They passed through M ^ksvilleiiSundav morning ^n- roiite to ’Knoxville, Tenu., their future home/and were met at the ,train by her parents Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Stewart. 'Mr. Durham after taking a course at State College has been and is now prominently connected with a Highway Con­ struction Co., which is now operat­ ing at Knoxville, Tenn.

'Boger1 23 committed sui­ cide Thursday morning by shooting himself through the head at his home at County Line,.nine miles a- bove Mocksville. He had- been an employee of the State Highway De­ partment, but had resigned his job. According to his wife, he an­ nounced to her Wednesday even iug as they were out riding, his in tention of killing himself, but later quelled her fears by assuring her that he was “only joking.” How­ ever, he took a pistol to bed with him, and kept it with him all night, giving as his reason his desire to be adequately protected against night prowlers. About 7:30 Thursday morning, says Mrs. Boger1 he a wakened her and asked her to go get him some breakfast. She im­ mediately prepared to do s>o. And she was in the kitchen starting the fire when she heard the pistol snap twice, and as she rushed into the bedroom it fired. Her husband had evidently held it close to his head. The bullet ranged downward, and did not cause instant death. Mrs. Boger at once summoned an ambu­ lance from Statesville, but just as it arrived, about an hour and a half after the firing of the shot, her husband died. Investigation was made by the sheriff, and by the coroner. Both rendered a verdict of.suicide, and a jury was not called. The young couple had been mar­ ried about three years. Both Eoger and his wife, who was Miss Sain, are natives of this county and have lived in this neighborhood all their lives. They have no children. The funeral and burial services, were held at Union Chapel Friday afternoon. Mr. Boger is survived by his wife, mother, three brotheis and three sisters* Farmington News. Mr. and Mrs. C. A.

Whenever she mentioned one of these he refused to take issue with her. And one night she. touched on still another point.

Both had been too en­ grossed to notice its noiseless opening. “J’ve finished cleaning up round the shop and corrals,” Harris said. “Is there any rubbish round the house you’d like to have throwed out and piled in a dry gulch somewheres out of sight?” He stood In the door, half facing them, his left side quartering toward Slade.

Slade's understanding of the quar­ tering position and the odd sling of Harris’ gun was entirely different and as he shifted his feet until he faced the man In the door, his movements were slow and deliberate, nothing that couia be misconstrued. “Who summoned you In here?” he demanded. Harris did not reply but stood wait­ ing for some word from (Jie girl. She had a sudden sick dread that Slade would kill him and wag surprised at the sentiment, for no longer than an hour before she had wished him dead. She made belated answer to his orig­inal question. "No,” she said. “Go on out, please.” He turned his back on SIade and.went out “And you,” she said to Slade, “you’d best be going too. We’ve been too good neighbors to qaarrel—unless you come over again with the same Idea you did today.” At sunset the girl called to Harris and lie repaired to the house and found her putting a hot meal for two on Uie end of the long pine table, the first time sbe had deigned to eat with him. ‘‘There's no use of our going on like this,’* she said. “We’ve two years of it to face; so it's best to get on some kind of a neutral footing/' For her own peace of mind she bad tried to smother her dislike of him and he was very careful to avoid any topic that would rekindle it They hashed the dishes together, and from that hour their relations, to all out­ ward appearance, were friendly or at least devoid of open hostility. But he knew that she was merely strug* S‘ing to make the best of a matter that was distasteful, that her opinion of him was unaltered." Her bitterness could not be entirely concealed, and she frequently touched on some; fresh point that added to her distrust of bis preseot motives and confirmed her belief in his double-dealing in the past. Tbere were so many of these points; hia refusal to accept her offer to 01 He WasShe Knew Harmless “and it might be embarrassing. The way it is, with only the two of us knowing the Inside, I can stay on as a regular band until sthe time is ap." “You’re so plausible,” she said. “You put it as a favor to me. Did It ever strike you that It the truth were known It might also be uncomfortable for you2” He smiled across at her and once more sbe frowned as she discovered that be was likable for all his under- handedness. “Worse than that—suicidal,” he ad­ mitted. “If you mentioned what you think of me, that I've framed to rob you by law, you wouldn’t be bothered with me for long.” He laughed soft­ ly and stretched his feet toward the fire. ‘Xook at it any way you like and I’m in bad shape to deal you any misery,” he pointed out. -wIf you’d drop a hint that I’m an unwelcome addition it would only be a matter of days until I’d fail to show up for meals. If you view It from that angle you can see I’m setting on the powder can.”She did see It, but had not so clear­ ly realized it till he pointed It out, and for the first time she wavered In her conviction that he had come sim­ ply to deprive her of her rights. But the thought that her father would not easily have willed away the home place to another without being unduiy Influenced served to reinstate her dis­ trust along with a vague resentment for his having shaken it by throwing himself so openly on her mercy. “You probably thought to overcome that by reaching the point the whole thing so patently aims for,” she said. “And you calculated well—arriving at a time when we’d be alone for a week. The whole scheme was based on that Idea and Tve been patiently wondering why you don’t rush mat­ ters and invite me to marry you.” He rose and flicked the ash from his cigarette, into the fireplace. “I do' Invite you—right now/’ he said, and in her surprise she left ner chair and stood facing him. “I’d like real welljo have you, Billie.” “That's the final proof,” she said 'Tm surprised that you didn’t tell me the first day.” “So am I,” he said. She fouud no answer for this but stood silent, knowing that she had suddenly become afraid of hiiii. “And that’s the living truth,” he af­ firmed. “Other men have loved you the firit day. You know men well enough to be certain that I wouldn’t be tied to one woman for the sake of owning a few bead of cows—not If I didn’t want her for herself.” He waved an arm toward the door “There’s millions of miles of sage just outside," he said. “And pillions of cows—and girls.” He moved across to her and stood almost touching her, looking down into her face. When SIade had stood so a few days past she had been cold­ ly indiiferent except for a shiver of distaste ait the thought of his touch­ ing her. Before Harris she felt a weakening, a need of support, and sbe leaned back from him and placed one hand behind her on the table. “You judge for yourself whether a man wouldn't be right foolish—with all those things I mentioned being right outside to call him—to marry a woman lie didn't want for herself, be­ cause she had a few hundred head of cows.’’ He smiled down at her. “Don’t pull back from tne, Billie; I won’t lay a finger on you. But now do you think It’s you I want—or the little old Three Bar?” “You can prove it,” she said at last “Prove it by going away for six months—or three.” He shook his head. “Not that," he said. ‘Tve told you I was sewed up in a right peculiar way myself—which wouldn’t matter a d—n if it wasn’t for this. I’d have tossed it oft in a second if the girl on the Three Bar had turned out to be any other than you. Now I’m go­ ing to see it through. The Three Bar is going under—the brand both our folks helped to found—unless some one pulls it out of the hole. Believe me if you can and If you can’t—why, you know that one remark about my being unwelcome here will clear the road for you, like I mentioned a few minutes back.” He turned away without touching her and she had not moved when the door closed behind him. An hour past noon on the following day a drove of horses appeared at the lower extremity of the valley and swept on. toward the ranch... As Har-. ris threw open the gates of the big corral he saw her standing ip the door of the cookhouse watching the oncoming drove. Riders flanked the bunch well out to each side to steady IL There was a roar of hoofs and a stifling cloud of dust as three hundred half-wild horses clattered past and crowded through the gates, scattering swiftly across the pasture lot back of the corral. A dozen , sweat-streaked riders swung from their saddles. There was no chance to distinguish' color or kind among them through the dust caked In the week-old growth of beard that covered every face. One man remained on his mount and followed the horses Into the pas­ ture lot, cutting out fifty or more anti heading them back Into the corral; for Waddiss had decreed that they could have the rest of the afternoon off for a jaunt to Brill’s store and they waited only to change mounts before the start Calico stood drooping sleepily In one of the smaller corrals and Harris moved toward /him. Intending to rids over with the rest of the men. “The boss said for you to ride Blue,” Uorrow stated as Harris passed the group at the gates of the corraL “He’s clear gentle-broke, Blue Is.” The men looked up In surprise. Mor- row had not been near the house to receive Instructions from the girl. Tbe He had been so apparent as to con­ stitute a direct challenge to the other man.Harris stood looking at him, then shrugged his shoulders.“Whatever the boss says goes with me,” he returned evenly. A rangy blue roan swept past with the fifty or so others. At least once every round of the corral he laid back bis ears and squealed as he scored some other horse witb his teeth, then lashed out with wicked heels.

YOUNG P E O PL E AND ADULT TO P­ IC—T he F ath erh o o d of God. Half of the lessons for the year 1929 are,of a topical character. The aim of the committee seems to have been to. place before the Sunday-school pupils some-of the great doctrine- of God’s Word, as well as teachings on prac­ tical life. I. Who Is Cur Heavenly Father? (Genesis 1:1, 27). He is the Almighty God who cre­ ated the universe. God was before all things. “Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.” Tbe universe came into be­ ing by the will and act of the personal being called God. Man himself is a creation of God. He' was created in the likeness and image of God. God is tlie infinite and perfect spirit in whom we live and move and have cur being. Ho is omnipotent, omniscient and om­ nipresent. He was not only before all things, but the cause of all things. '11. What the Father Does. 1. He loves us (I John 4:9, 10). This love was expressed by sending His only begotten Son into the world that we might live through Him. He not only loves the redeemed, but He loves the world (John 3:16). In the very essence of His being God is love (I John 4:8). 2. He redeemed us (I John 4:9), He gave His only begotten Son that we might live through Him. 3. God preserves us (Ps. 303:1-14). The preserving mercy of God em­ braces the following gracious bene­ ficial acts: (I) He forgives all our iniquities (v. 3). This He is able to do because of the righteous provision He made for sin in the atonement wrought out by Jesus Christ •K(2) He healeth all our diseases (v. 3). This healing refers to the body and soul. (3) He redeemeth the life from de­ struction (v. 4). Eedemption Implies the payment of all demands against the debtor.' (4) He satisfieth thy mouth (v. 5). This means that God satisfies all legitimate desires so that youth is re­ newed like the eagle’s. (5) He executes righteousness and judgment (w. 6-12). The wrongs of life are righted and man Is thus re­ lieved of their burdens. (6 ) He pities His children (w. 13, 14). The pity of an earthly fa­ ther for his children Is but a faint suggestion ,of the sympathetic heart of the loving God, our Father. III. Our Responsibility to the Heav­ enly Father (Matthew 6:24-34). Christ came to reveal the Father. The subjects, of the heavenly kingdom will love Him as the child loves its father. 1. He will give unto him undivided attention (v. 24). The child of God makes the, un­ equivocal choice between the heaven­ ly Father and the world. The word “mammon” is a kind of personifica­ tion of worldliness. 2. Will not be anxious about food and clothing (w. 25-32). The child of God who knows Him as a Father will not be supremely con­ cerned about what It shall eat or what it shall put on because anxiety Is (1) Useless <v. 27). Eegardless of what thought or con­ cern one exercises concerning food and clothing, it will be provided only according to His will. In Him do we live, move and have our being. God supplies all our needs (Phil. 4:19). (2) It shows distrust of the Father (vv. 28-30). In the measurb that one is anxious about these needs, he shows lack of faith In the love of God. (3) It is heathenish (v. 32). That those who are ignorant of God should manifest anxiety is not to be won­ dered at, but for His children, those who knov God as the Father, to do so Is to play the heathen. He knows that we have need of temporal blessings. 3. Will diligently seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. ‘ (w. S3, 34). This means that he will subordinate temporal things to the things of the Spirit it does not mean that a child of God will fall to exercise proper forethought In .providing for himself and family.

Best Treatment for Seed Grain Copper Carbonate Favored for Preventing Smut of Wheat and Oats. Copper carbonate is the best fungi­ cide for preventing stinking smut of wheat and the smuts of hnlless oats. Formaldehyde is the best fungicide for preventing smuts of hulled oats and covered smut of barley. i Formaldehyde should not be used for treating wheat. It prevents the covered smut, but it is likelysto in- j jure the seed severely, especially If; the seed is dried after treatment, or sown In dry soil. Copper carbonate does not prevent the smuts of hulled oats nor the cov­ ered smut of bariey. It reduces the amount, blit is not as effective as for­ maldehyde. Formaldehyde does not In­ jure the seed of oats and barley and is therefore recommended. Patent fungicides are not better than copper carbonate and formalde­ hyde. There are many patent fungi­ cides now on the market, write E. C. Stakman and H. A. Bodenhiser In the Dakota Farmer. How to Use Dust. Get a good grade of fine, fluffy, cop­ per carbonate. This light material is as effective as the' more expensive heavier material. Any dust with a 20 per ceDt copper equivalent or more Is satisfactory, tfse two ounces of dust per bushel. If the seed Is very badly smutted, use three ounces. For small quantities of seed mix the dust with the seed in an old barrel churn or a similar homemade device. Eotate the churn seven or eight times. This is long enough to mix the dust thor­ oughly. For treating large quantities of seed, it probably would pay to buy a smut machine. Treat the seed any time before SowiIng1' Treat it now. Marquis wheat seed- need not be treated more than once every other year, because Marquis is somewhat re­ sistant to stinking smut.’ ’ How to Use Formaldehyde. There are three general methods— the dip, sprinkle and spray methods. For the first two, use one pint of for­ maldehyde to 50 gallons of water. Either dip the seed into this solution, or sprinkle the solution onto the seed by means of a • sprinkling can, while one person shovels the seed over. In either case,1 one gallon of the solution will bp enough for about 50 bushels of seed. After treatment, the seed should be sown as soon as possible, preferably while it is still moist for the best results. The advantage of the spray method is that it does not wet the seed.' Mix one pint of formaldehyde with about a gallon of water and spray this onto the seed with a compressed air spray­ er—not a sprinkler. Use exactly one pint of formaldehyde to 50 bushels of seed. It tan even be used without wa­ ter. The exact amount of water does not make any difference. It is used merely as a carrier for the formal­ dehyde to 50 bushels of seed. After treatment cover the seed with sacking or canvas for five rours. Then sow immediately, or spread out to dry. Various Tools Required for Handy Repair Shop ' According to Arkansas College of Agriculture authorities, the farm shop will pay for Itself many times in money and time saved. Care, however, should be exercised In choosing the equipment for the shop. AVoodworking tools should be chosen first The following will make the basis for a good kit; a medium weight claw hammer, a 24-inch framing brace and bits of %, %, % and 1-inch in diameter. The above list of good qual­ ity can be bought for from $10 to $15. As needs demand the following tools may be added: 25% point rip saw, a 24-inch wrecking bar, a-24-inch level, a % and %-inch wood chisel, and an S-inch draw knife. Avery satisfactory wood for a bench vise can be made by using a 1-lnch by 16-inch screw and using a well sea­ soned piece of hard wood for the vise face. For metal and pipe work a. bench or leg type vise which has ’a removable set of pipe jaws will come In very handy. Miscellaneous tools to be included very profitably are: a 14-inch pipe wrench, a 12-inch adjustable wrench, a 10-inch hack saw and a dozen extra biades, two cold chisels, a machine punch, a 2% pound ball pean hammer, a pair tin snips, and %-lieii, %-inch and. %-inch drill bits, with square shanks. * Agricultural Hints frfrSHf-X X X X XXXX X XftXXXX XKttiHt X* With a big ..crop, of beans, farmers will find this crop valuable to' use In feeding swine, '' • •. *.

TO EXTERMINATE , GERMAN FAMILY Sbiooting of Nobleman in -, New Orleans Brings Feud to LigHi New Orleans, La,—The two sjr- ■ vlving members of the ancient Von Herr family of Germany live in per­ petual fear^hat they Jtay be victims: of a one-sided feud being carried on by persons unknown for reasons equally unknown. The story of the feud came to light here recently when an attempt to-as­ sassinate Baron Frederick Wilhelm 'Gustave von Herr was frustrated by several coins in a pocket book that deflected and stopepd the bullet just over the heart. The score so far is: Dead—The fa­ ther of the present baron, killed on the streets of Metz in 1925; Eric von Herr, killed at the same time. Still- living—the present baron here and Hugo Von Herr, twenty-four, study­ ing at Frledrichshaven, the starting point of the Graf Zeppelin on its re­ cent flght to America. Lose Wealth After War. The ancient prestige and wealth of the Von Herrs is gone—confiscated after the war. The present baron, twenty-nine, still showing the effects of undernourishment during the war Coins Stopped the Bullet Just Over ., the Heart. and scarred from the expjosion of a French bomb dropped from the air over Metz, has been working In the otBce of a local, dentist, a compatriot of the baron who knew tbe family in Germany. ' The assassin, according to the baron, bad warned him first that he was due to die that night. Then came the attempt which failed—a single shot fired point blank aimed at the heart. It was an “army man,” as the Ger­ mans know the type, who did the shooting. During tbe war tbe present baron’s father, was a political leader Jn Alsace-Lorraine. After the armis­ tice be suggested that tbe province be made an independent republic, and led a movement toward that end. Made Many Enemies. In the resultant turmoil, the baron says, his father made many enemies. Among them might be the ones who now are ,trying to' exterminate the family. For years after the war the Von Herrs lived in terror. The present baron was sent to the United States for safety In 1921 after several at­ tempts on the Ufe of the old baron bad failed. Then came the shooting on the streets of - Metz In 1925. A gang opened fire on the old man and. two sons. Tbe old man was killed, and one son, Eric, died with him. The . youngest, Hugo, escaped. Woman Strangles Man to Death With Necktie Canton, Ohio.—Threatening to - bill her two daughters, Prospero Carrozzi. thirty-five, of Lfcbon, was strangled to deatb with bis own necktie by Mrs. Lena De GarIalamo in her home *in Middlebranch early In tbe morning, ac­ cording to Coroner T. C. McQuate and deputies from the office of Sheriff Ed Oibson. The woman told authorities that the man entered her home, threatened to kill her two daughters, then reached for his pocket and advanced toward ber. She ran behind him, pushed him to the floor and grabbed his necktie. She 6aid sbe pulled it tight for fifteen minutes. She notified officers, but the man was dead when they arrived. The woman is being held without charge, pending the investigation.

To the encouragement of the Amer­ ican girl who aspires to own such a coat be it said that coats very like this one are being shown in smarts sports departmeats here. Some of the most stunning ones jre actually made of Navajo blankets. To prove.,- it some sliops display a blanket in the original by the side of the fin­ ished coat. The most fetching ones are of brush wool striped or patterned in the gay­ est colors imaginable. Quite a few of the younger set are buying them for grandstand wear at the ball game, or to use as. motor coats. They are as clever as can be. for either pur­ pose. It is possible, too, to get the swank­ iest knit gloves or collegiate mittens to go with them. (©, 1928. "Western Newspaper Union.)

It was the thought of it I was much worried.” “Yes,” said the sky fairies, “it was the thought of it, for it could never really happen. “And don’t spend your time think­ ing and worrying about the tilings that will never happen. Think of all the joys you have.” “Ah, yes,” said the skylark.

COHASE PUDDING, HOT PINEAPPLE SAUCE A new combination to many people is a cottage pudding with a hot pine­ apple sauce poured over it Any pre­ ferred recipe for cottage pudding may be used. The baking should be timed so that the dessert will be just done when it is time to serve it The sauce can be kept hot in the double boiler. As this sauce is made from canned pineapple, this is an excellent cold weather dessert The bureau of home economics has tested the proportions given below: I No. 2 can (ab o u t Vl tsp. s a lt 2 cups pineapple) I tbs. butter >i cup su g ar I* tbs. cornstarch Drain and press tlie juice from the crushed pineapple. Mix the corn­ starch and the sugar and add it to the juice. Cook this mixture in the upper part of a double boiler over tlie direct flame until the sauce thickens. Stir constantly. Place the upper part of the boiler over tlie lower part, cover, and cook the sauce for ten minutes. Remove from tlie Are, and add the butter, salt and pineapple, and mis well. Serve over cottage pudding. bread a piece of thinly sliced Swiss cheese. Repeat having four layers. Trim ^off and put under weight and .let stand several hours in a cool place. Cut crosswise into thin slices. Marbled Tongue.—Chop two pounds of cooked veal and one pound; of boiled tongue separately until line, add salt and pepper to season. Pour over the veal one-half cupful of melt­ ed butter, rpix thoroughly, then put in layers with the tongue in a buttered pan. Press under weight and serve in slices with lemon or garnish with parsley. Favorite Salad.—Combine two cup­ fuls each of diced potatoes and beets, one-half cupful of diced gherkins and one-fourtb cupful of minced '■hives. Marinate with six tablespoonfuls of oil and three of tarragon vinegar for one hour. Drain off the oil and cover with one-half cupful of French dress­ ing.

EN ILL KE □ PB Excellent Use of Wail Space for Convenience and Good Lighting. (Prepared by the Dnited States Department of Agriculture.) One of the secrets rof efficient work in the kitchen is good utilization of wall space for the necessary equip­ ment The illustration, from the Unit­ ed States' Department of Agriculture, shows an excellent grouping of eqnip^ meat In a rather large kitchen. The object is to bring the various work centers as close together as possible, so that the housewife will not take needless steps in preparing or clearing away meals. In this particular kitch­ en the entire fourth' side of the room Is taken up by a large dining table seating eight persons. In case where there is a separate dining room or al­ cove, the same part of the room might be fitted with shelves or used to ac­ commodate any additional equipment, such as a work table or an Ironing board. The sink, ^with Its double drain- boards, is -on the left, in front of a window. There is-a dish closet not seen In the picture, at the extreme left end of the sink. Most right-hand­ ed peuple move from left to right in going from one task to another, as in turning from tfie food preparation cen­ ter whera vegetables-.are. prepared— the sink—to that where other foods are mixed—the kitchen cabinet ‘The latter adjoins the counter that extends from the second drainboard. There is another ,window above this counter,, and these two windows give fine light and ventilation. On a bandy shelf in the corner be­ tween the windows are stored the cof­ fee percolator, tea kettle, double boil­ ers, and other utensils that must be filled with'water from the taps before, cooking. Hooks are provided for the various small utensils that can be readily hung up. The food preparation center,, in this case a kitchen cabinet is next in order, convenient to the sink, the serving counter, and the refrigerator. It is situated where Iighit from both' windows reaches its working space. The partly seen door opens on a gen­ eral utility closet in which tlie hot- water boiler connected with the range is placed. The latter is located on the tiilrd wall of: the room, not shown in the picture. The spaces be­ low the drainboard and counter have been utilized for storing such articles as the high -stool* garbage pail, and Ereless cooker. Where an. oil stove with a portable- oven.' is. used this space, might well be arranged to hold the oven, when it is. not. in v ie. BuiIdiers Now Insist on Proved Material According to the index number cot piled by a large Kew York trust cot pany, American homes are costk more each year. While the aver.i; cost for apartment houses is only little over the 1921 mark, the ImjfI number for private houses shows average rise from 100 In 1921 to ]^| in 1927. Part of this increase at least is dil to education in materials, wliicli IiJ convinced many house builders tliatf low first cost does not prove ilcl cheap stuff is not more expensive the end. An architect, writing anonjJ mously, protested recently in ail ail vertising magazine that his labors -.ve.-J made more difficult because men atj women who sought his services worj already sold on- specified brands lumber, paints, varnishes, shingle sash, wallboard, plumbing, plaste screens, hardware and all the fixture to be used in their houses. I n “Np longer,” lie complained, “is iV-Jpt ■architect the final arbiter. Practical^ everything which enters into building of a house is advertised 4c the consumer, and lie is accepting tlej invitation to look tilings over.” In many cases, this architect fount the client or his wife was sold on a product which meant additional <s- pense, but so thoroughly had advertis­ ing done its work that no substitute was acceptable. Fortunately few architects have tliis feeling, as the large majority welcome clients who have some knowledge #( materials. They know stjch knowledge gives protection and makes it easie; for them, to give clients better houses. „ A .

Consider Home Location* There is nothing more important in the selection of a new home than its location. This is proved in the fact that expensive houses, are generally constructed in choice locations, while lower-priced dwellings grace lots that are less costly. Of ,course, there are exceptions to this rule. Location, however, must enter into consideration when the choice of a house has been made and there are no hard and fast rules to lay down for the choosing of the right spot. Each family has an individual prob­ lem—one that must be surfeyed care­ fully and minutely from every angle— and only the family can decide defi­ nitely whether the house is IocatM properly for it to secure the maximum amount of comfort and convenience from it. Colored Telephone Poles. Telephone poles in all the latest shades—mauve, cerise and ordiid if !necessary—are early possibilities of this, as has sometimes been said, col* ■orful age. Engineers believe a color sc’neme in telephone and telegraph pol® is in prospect. Poles at some early Cate, they say, may be golden yellow wliere they skirt a com field, a deep green as- they stand. In single file against a verdant forest, or a rich blue as they outline themselves atop a hill against the sky.

Z i>-r HE engine gave two gasps and died or, should one say, succumbed to—but that is going “too far ahead of the narrative. The starter turned the engine over briskly and repeated­ ly nothing happened. A girl swathed in a fur coat emerged from the driv­ er’s seat of the small coupe and fought her way to the gas tank in the face of a raging blizzard that was usher­ ing in the New Year. About six inches of snow covered the back" of the car and when the tank was finally reached the cover was frozen on. The green - light at the boulevard intersection changed to red bringing to a halt a car directly back of Ora’s. “Is there something we can do?" "I can’t imagine what is the matter. The car stood out today and all eve­ ning, but it started all right, bringing Esther and me a block and a half, and then suddenly gave up the ghost as I slowed down for the red light.” “Sounds like yon might have flooded the carburetor,” suggested one of the two young men. “Better .et it stand a few minutes, then try it again. I’ll tell you, we have a girl Jiere we have to take home—won’t take long—then we’ll come back. If you are still here, we’ll push you a ways and get you going.” Hardly had they left the car be­ fore another young man—somewhat older than the other two lads—tall, fair, and fine featured, also asked if he might help. The tank contained plenty of gasoline. “Well," concluded Ora, after these efforts proved futile, “I’ll go over and telephone Dad to come and tow me home.” Then to Esther, “I think I’ll try the engine once more for luck be­ fore I go." Still no response. Another larger car drove up. A young man rather smallish in stature bounced up to the car. After hearing Ora’s recital lie said, “Sounds, like the distributor. Tll take a look at it. This is about the fifth car I have helped to start to­ night. Guess I’ll have to push you to get it started. Terrible night. Better get in out of-the wind and snow." A block’s pushing failed to start the car, and it was finally pushed in­ to a garage, which happened to be a half block away.“Now-you and your girl friend are sure you don’t want me to wait? You won’t be afraid?” The young man’s 'dancing, snappy eyes fairly beamed, “You know I don’" care what time I get home and would just as soon as not wait You,” he hesitated a little embarrassed, “you are sure you have money enough?” 41You surely are a brick to be so helping and considerate. Yes. I have four or five dollars. Enough, don t you think? If they should not be able to get the car started, I’ll call a taxi. Thank you so much.” ’ Ora did not notice it, but the snappy eyes were memorizing her license num­ ber. and as the. young roan backed his big car out of the garage-He said, “I knew this New Year’s blizzard was sent for some good—a New Year, ana the girl of my dreams—the gods foj- bid I forget the license number. ((^i t928. Western Newspaper Union.I ^ - B y G ertrude WALTOn A Tew YearIc/ t o r y Y GREATEST wish for this year is that we would hie back to some of the ways and times of the old years. Nothing seems genuine and substantial as it- ujed to be in the old days of neighborly visiting, families spending their evenings at home, when good times did not depend-on the theater or spending money. Young people now spend more in- one even­ ing’s pleasure than we used to spend in a month. There was time to be at home, time to lie. kind, time to—what are we coming to, these days?” Mrs.' Long asked despairingly as we of the executive committee of the Missionary society were dispersing for 6ur homes the last afternoon of the year just ,at an end. “To our senses, we hope.” Mrs. Reed broke in. “But there are some things genuine in these days," Mrs. Hannis began. “I heard such a beautiful thing yester­ day. Do you know that Mrs., Phillips in Japan writes every day to her frail mother here? As the wife of a noted American teacher, statesman and mis­ sionary, Mrs. PhilHps has a school for girls in her own home and yet finds time to send love messages every day to her mother, who told me that she frequently received four or five missives a day if the mails were irregular. Think what joyful anticipation that mother experiences each day! Here is an example of a daughter’s thought­ ful devotion that is unchanged amid the new notions of the times. We feel sure the mother’s love is no less keen because some mothers find more pleasure in a the­ ater than In caring . for the children at home. Perhaps it is the individual who is changing the times rather than times chang­ ing the individual. We mortals are the “changers.” Cour­ tesy, kindness, patience, humility, meekness, - gentleness, contentment, mother-love, even happiness are as stable in themselves as the sun, the wind, the rain, which vary as they are influenced by material elements. The sun is always in its place; time is unchangeable, kindness, courtesy, etc., I repeat, are waiting to be of service to us. The same spirit that prompt­ ed the neighborly visiting in-the old­ en times we may have at any time this New Year. The spirit of Christ­ mas," through all the changing foibles of humanity, remains the same. .We lose kindness by neglect In using it; we lose the spirit of Christmas—the thoughtfulness of Mrs. Phillips—be­ cause we are not practicing their use,” Mrs. Hannis emphasized in her charming way. “I’m going to write to my mother every day.this year.” "And I!” “And L” various voices-, exclaimed.) “If w e. would fill our New Year calendars with red letter days, as Time for Home day, Time for Visit­ ing day, - Courtesy day. Patience day, etc., before we are aware there1, might be ‘Perfect, day,’ and there might be,” MrA Hannls lowered her vojce—“who knows buT'that some of ‘ye olden time days’ may be a pan of the New Year.” I©, 192$.

G IR L ’S D A N D E R U P, ROUTS 3 BANDITS W as W ell Scared Till One Called Her Names. •• New York.—Pauline E. Fessler, twenty, sat alone in the office of her father’s firm, the East River Sheet Metal works, recently preparing the weekly pay roll. When an armed bandit abruptly en­ tered and covered the girl with his revolver she was thoroughly fright­ ened. He ordered her to hand over the money spread out before -ber— $2S5—and she hastily obeyed. Then he commanded her to open u safe standing In a corner of the office. She dropped to her knees in front of the safe. So scared was she that her hands shook and she could hardly turn the dial. In fact, so great was Iier fright that she forgot the combi­ nation of the safe. “I can’t open it,” she pleaded. The bandit stood beside her with his revolver pressed against her side. “Quit your stalling,” he warned her. Again she fumbled with the dial. “But I can’t open it—I can’t,” she cried. Just then a second bandit entered. With a third accomplice he had been keeping under cover the six men in the shop outside the office, and he had come now to see what was delaying his pal in the office. He saw Pauline on her knees before the safe but the safe Still closed. He swore at her. He called her names. And at that Pauline’s courage and presence of mind came crowding back to her. She stood up, she lifted her head. “Just for that,” she said tartly, “I won’t open the safe.” Her fingers no longer fumbled. She picked up the inkwell from her desk before her and hurled it at the two men. One of them fired. She doesn’t remember what hap­ pened after that, but one of the men held under cover in the shop beyond - the office could see in through the glass partition. He saw the girl pick -up pens, telephone books, paperweight —everything that lay on the desk, in­ cluding the blotter—and throw them in the faces of the two men. The ban­ dits hurried away from there. Four shots were fired at the girl. Two of them went wild. One grazed the third finger of ber left hand, an­ other grazed her head.

In Hungary it is customary to settle such quarrels with a duel. Usually light sabers are used, due care being taken that neither party can be severely cut.'These two rivals had heard of duels but were, not aware of the precaution­ ary measures which “gentlemen duel­ lers” take when defending their hon­ or.

HOOVER’S BIG VICTORY Republicans Sweep the Country in the Presidential Election—Kellogg Treaty to Outlaw War Signed by Nearly AU Nations— China Won by the Nation­ alists—Germany and the Reparations. By EDWARD W. PICKARD Herbert Hoover was tlie doininat ing Iisure. of the year 11)28 in the Uuited States. This by reason of his sweeping victory in the Fresi(len;ial election at the close of the most in­ teresting campaign , the country had had in many years, and his “good will” tour of the Latin American re­ publics. Until the verdict of the polls was rendered, Sir. Hoover’s rival for the !’residency, Gov. Al Smith nf New York, was almost «H]uully in the public eye and the pub­ lic mind. Economically and financial­ ly the country enjoyed a prosperity that has seldom been equalled, not withstanding the fact that the prob­ lem of relieving the troubles of the agriculturists remained unsolved Internationally, the outstanding event of the year was the putting for ward of the so-called Keliogg multi­ lateral lreaty to outiaw war and its signature in I’siris by nearly all the civilized nations of the world Ef­ forts to accomplish a reduction of armaments, made by the League of Kiitiutis and by various statesmen, had no definite results, but the Kel­ logg pad was looked on by most peo­ ple us a real step toward world peace. The tenth anniversary of the armis­ tice found the questions of German reparations still unsettled but the governments most concerned were about to open a conference for the purpose of determining SnalIy what and how the Germans must pay. The close of the year also saw steps be­ ing taken by President Coolidge’s ad­ ministration for the reopening of the question of American adherence to the world court in the hope that the European nations might accept the American reservations. In the Far East China provided much of the interest and to tlie relief of the world its Internecine warfare was ended with the, victory of the ■Nationalists. Japan furnished a spec­ tacular incident in the formal coro- Bntion of Empercr Birohilo. Latin America was rather more peaceful than usual, with tlie excep­ tion of Nicaragua, apd in that re­ public the American marines and dip­ lomats succeeded in bringing an end to the civil warfare and in giving the little republic a real election of a Tresident INTERNATIONAL Early in January President Cool- idpre created a precedent by Journey­ ing to Havana, Cuba, to attend the opening of the Pan-American confer­ ence and to deliver an address before that body. He returned at once, leav­ ing the interests of the United States in the able hands of diaries Evans Hughes and his fellow delegates. At the instance of Mexico it was decided that the union should not have power to conisder political questions, though some of the delegates tried earnestly to make it virtually an American league of nations. Honorio Pueyrre; don. head of the Argentina delega­ tion, insisted that the union adopt a declaration against the maintenance of tariff walls between the American republics, and when Mr. Hughes would not listen to this and it was turned down by the conference. PuejTredon resigned both from his delegation and as ambassador to !Washington. Before this occurred he and many others found occasion to denounce Intervention by one nation In the internal affairs of another, the attack of course being aimed at the policy of the United States in the case of Nicaragua. As it was evident that a resolution embodying these views could not be carried unanimous­ ly, further discussion of the subject was referred to the seventh confer­ ence. . Definite results of the session were: The acceptance by twenty states of a code of private interna­ tional law; adoption of. resolutions that disputes of a juridical nature be submitted to arbitration, that ag­ gressive ■ war. be outlawed and the republics of America committed to the use of peaceable means for the settlement of all disputes between them; the beginning of the codifica­ tion of international law; the signing of a convention on commercial avia­ tion, and the putting into full effect of the Pan-American sanitary code. In December there was a serious threat of warfare between Bolivia and Paraguay oyer tlie disputed Gran Chaco region. At the same time a Pan-American conference on concilia­ tion and arbitration opened in Wash ington, and its first efforts were di­ rected toward averting, this outbreak, of hostilities. The council of the League of Nations also urged the two republics fo settle their quarrel with­ out resort to arms. . On February 6, the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the sign­ ing of the first treaty between the United States and France, the two nations signed a hew arbitration pact, binding each party not to go to war with the other. The American gov­ ernment at the time suggested that a better way would be to unite the efforts of the two powers to obtain the adhesion of all the principal pow­ ers of the world to a declaration de­ nouncing war as an instrument of their national policy. This was the inception of the multilateral treaty which Secretary of State Kellogg lat­ er proposed to the chief powers. One by one the nations accepted tlie plan in principle, sojne of them with res­ ervations, and finally tlie pact was drawn up to suit all. France there­ upon invited fourteen other nations to send representatives to Paris to sign the treaty. All responded, and on August 27 the ceremony was per­ formed. The pact was left open for the adhesion of other nations and within a few weeks most of the gov­ ernments of the civilized world Iiad accepted it. Promising as this move­ ment toward general peace seemed, it was regarded by certain elements in some countries, especially the United States and Italy, with cyni­ cal derision. Approval by the Amer­ ican senate is necessary to give it effect, and some of the senators were known to be opposed to it. Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign rela­ tions committee, however, gave the treaty his warm indorsement. Evacuation of the Rhineland and the fixing of the total n't the repara­ tions obligations was still insisted on by Germany. By the terms of the Dawes agreement she was paying large sums regularly on account, but the time when the payments should end was coming no nearer. The al­ lies at last recognized this intoler­ able situation and in November it was agreed that a congress of ex­ perts should be convened to revise the Dawes plan and try to fix the total reparations. France persisted In the idea that the question of rep­ arations should be tied up with that of her war debt to the United States, but Washington made it plain that this could not be. John Bassett Moore, American, re­ signed on April 28 as a member of the permanent court of international justice, commonly known as the world court. Most of the national groups nominated Charles Evans Hughes to succeed him, and the as­ sembly and council of the League of Nations overwhelmingly confirmed the choice on September 8 . FOREIGN Great Britain pursued the even tenor of its way, but was not in good economic condition. The great num­ ber of the unemployed, especially in the mining districts, led the govern­ ment to try the experiment of help ing many men to migrate to Canada and Australia to engage in agricul­ tural work. This was successful to a limited extent but did not especially please the dominions. Early in the year parliament passed the women’s franchise measure, known as the “flappers’ bill,” and thus about five million more women were given the vote. During the session of parlia­ ment the house rejected the prayer book revision proposed by the author­ ities of the Church of England; and Churchill introduced a spectacular budgetary scheme for reforming local government and relieving industrial depression. J. H. Whitley resigned as speaker and Capt. E. A. Fitzroy was elected to succeed him. Attacks on the metropolitan police led to a parliamentary investigation and to the appointment of Lord Byng as commissioner. King George contracted inflamma­ tion of the lungs late In November and his condition became so alarm­ ing that the prince of Wales and his brother, the duke of Gloucester, hur­ riedly returned from a hunting trip in Africa. His majesty appointed a royal commission, headed by the queen, to act for him during his ill­ ness. Dr. Bandall Thomas Davidson, archbishop of Canterbury and primate of England, created a precedent by resigning, in July, and Dr. Cosmo Lang, archbishop of York, was ap­ pointed tp the place. The earl of Birkenhead resigned as secretary of state for India and was succeeded by Viscount Peel. On February I James McNeill was installed as governor general of the Irish Free State. Per­ haps the most interesting event in the empire, outside of Great Britain, was the decisive defeat of prohibition in New South Wales and Canberra, the federal district of Australia. In November the South African cabinet of Premier Hertzog resigned and he formed a new government. France, as always, devoted an enormous amount of attention to -pol­ itics. Premier Poincare held power throughout the year. ’ In the elections on April 22 he won a-'decided victory, and when he resigned in November he was persuaded to retain office and form a new ministry. The radical socialists were recalcitrant and Poin­ care left them out of bis government. The tenth anniversary found France in a gratifying state of rehabilita­ tion. Most of the.farm homes and buildings had been rebuilt, the flooded coal mines had been restored to pro­ duction and factories. Md been re­ stored and. ail were busy. The franc had been stabilized' and th6 foreign trade showed a large increase. Un­ employment was almost nonexistent. The communists created disturb­ ances during, the summer in Limoges, Troyes and Ivry but were effectually 'suppressed. .Severai Alsatian auton­ omists w.ere, cqnyicted in . May and sentenced to prison,' but President : Dpnmergue pardoned them, Scandals ■ attending-the" granting'of'divorces by the Parts courts to , Americiuis led to reforms In the procedure of those tribunals. Germany, laboring under the burden of the reparations payments, was said by her ambassador to Washington to be distinctly on the upgrade. This notwithstanding rather unfavorable business conditions and an increase in' the numbei of unemployed. With Premier Mussolini still its dic­ tator, Italy seemed to be making steady progress, and the supremacy of the Fascist party was confirmed and strengthened. The duce put into full effect his plan for reorganization of the government to put practically all power in the liands of the grand coun­ cil, accomplished monetary reform and put through a law for his pet scheme of land reclamation and utilization. Ilumania was torn by dissension, the Peasant party demanding a share in the government. Finally the revolt grew so serious that Premier Bratiano was forced by the regency io resign and Juiiu Maniu, leader of the peas­ ants, came into power as head of a coalition government. Ahmed Zogu1 the handsome young dictator of Albania, decided that his country should Imve a king and pro­ moted Iiimself to that position, taking the title of Scanderbeg III. Soviet Russia’s rulers have not yet solved the great issue of how to rec­ oncile the conflicting interests of the industrial and the agrarian sections of tlie population, and during the year there were sporadic revolts of the peasants, without result. The government continued its earnest ef­ forts to enlist financial aid from abroad, and one of its successes was tlie completion of a contract with the International General Electric com­ pany of New York for the purchase of $25,000,000 worth of electric equip­ ment in this country. Tlie exploita­ tion of the country’s rich oil resources was carried on energetically. The rules governing concessions to foreign business interests were radically modified in September. Generally speaking, Russia was in a IieaItiiier condition than at any time since the revolution. Victory of the Chinese Nationalists was won after long and hard fighting and despite the opposition of Japan. Marshal Chang Tso-lin, Manchurian war lord, was forced to abandon Pe­ king on June 8, and on his way to Mukden his train was bombed and lie was fatally injured. The National­ ists established a complete govern­ ment and constituted Nanking the capital of the republic. Chiang Kai- Shek, their generalissimo, ' MS elected president of the council. The name of Peking was changed to Peiping, meaning “Northern' Peace.” The Unit­ ed States took the first step toward recognition of the new government by negotiating a treaty granting China tariff autonomy. Great Britain, Ger­ many, France and Italy all began negotiations ' with the Nanking gov­ ernment, Japan alone holding aloof because of her claim that her old treaty with China was still in effect. Gen. Alvaro Obregon, being the only surviving candidate for the Presidency of Mexico after the recalcitrants had been suppressed, was elected on July I, to take office on December I. But on July 17, as he was attending a banquet in his honor, he was assassi­ nated by a young native named Toral. The crime created a great sensation and the trial of the murderer and his alleged accomplices was watched with immense interest. In November Toral was convicted and condemned to death, and a nun, Mother Concepcion, who was accused of being .the “intel­ lectual author” of the crime, was con­ demned to twenty years in prison. It was up to the national assembly to choose a Provisional President to serve fourteen months from I'eeember I, and, President CalIes refusing the job, it was given to Emilio Portes Gil. While American marines' were try­ ing quite successfully to pacify Nica­ ragua and quite unsuccessfully. to catch Sandino1 the rebel chieftain, Brig. Gen. Frank McCoy as the head of an American electoral commission was arranging for an honest and im­ partial Presidential election. This was authorized by a ' decree of President Diaz. The voters were properly reg­ istered in advance, and when they went to the polls on November 4 each man was required to dip his thumb in a stain to prevent repeating. The election was carried off peaceably and resulted in the choice of Gen. Jose Maria Moncada, the Liberal candidate. His majority over Adolfo Benard, Con­ servative, was about 20,000. DOMESTIC Nothing else was so interesting to the people of the United States as the business OfySelecting their nest Presi­ dent The campaigning started early, and from the beginning it was toler­ ably apparent that Secretary of Com­ merce Herbert Hoover would win the Republican nomination, and that Gov. Al Smith of New York would head the Democratic ticket The G-.- 0. P.fna- tional convention met on June 12 in Kansas City with the Hoover delegates strongly entrenched, the only Sther prominent candidates being Frank O. Lowden of Illinois and .Senator CharlesCuritisofKansas. Lotvden was supported by the leaders of farm or­ ganizations who wanted the Mc-Nnry- Haugen agricultural relief bill; and they promised that there would be a tremendous demonstration by farmers if the convention did not at least adopt a platform. plank to their lik­ ing. This turned out to Ue a false alarm, and Hoover went over easily on the first ballot after the resolutions committee had fixed up a platform (o conform to his policies. Senator Cur-' tis wai consoled with the Jnomination for Vice President Mr. Hoover select­ ed Secretary of the Interior Robert C. Work for chairman of the national cbmriiittee, - and the campaign work was promptly - organized. The Democrats met In national con­ vention in Houston, Texas, on June 26, and from that moment there was no doubt of Smith’s victory. The south­ ern Democrats, however, being nearly all dry and Protestant, made such fight as they could, and on June 28 accepted the nomination of Smith on the first ballot with wry, faces. The enthusiasm of the governor’s support­ ers was such that there were many assertions that the party would stand solidly behind him. How wrong tlie prediction was is known to all. It took only one ballot for the conven­ tion to choose Senator Joe Robinson of Arkansas as Smith’s running mate. He was the first resident below the Mason and Dison line since the Civil war to be named on a Presidential ticket by either of the major parties, and his' selection was regarded as a wise, strategic move. Governor Smith, on receiving word of his nomination, rath­ er upset the convention” by a telegram in which he declared he had not changed his opposition to the present prohibition laws and methods of their enforcement. John J. Raskob, chair­ man of the finance committee of the General Motors corporation, was made Democratic national chairman, and un­ der his leadership the party, for the first time in many long years, obtained ample funds for the campaign. Both candidates made several speak­ ing tours, and for the first time radio was used extensively in the campaign. The people were thoroughly aroused, and the religious issue, though depre­ cated by the leaders of both parties, would not down. It and also tlie' pro­ hibition issue cut both ways. In the middle western and western states the question of farm relief was played up, but in the end it was overshad­ owed by tlie fact that the country in general was exceedingly prosperous, and the voters did not care to make an experimental change. The American people, men and wom­ en, went to the polls oh November 6 in unprecedented numbers, and when their ballots had been cast Hoover and Curtis carried forty states with a to­ tal of 444 electoral votes, and Smith and Itobinson had carried eight states, with S7 votes in the electoral college. Hoover’s majority exceeded even that of- Wilson In 1912. Moreover, he smashed the solid South, \ winning Florida, Maryland, New Mexico, North Carolina and Texas. Smith’s states were Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Rhode Island and South Carolina. He failed to carry New York, though Franklin Roosevelt (Dem.) was elect­ ed governor of that state. When the popular vote was considered, the de­ feat of Smith did not seem so humili­ ating. The total vote cast was ap­ proximately 35,000,000, and of these Smith received about 15,000,000. Two weeks after the election Mr. Hoover sailed from San Pedro, Calif., on a good will tocr of the republics of Central and South America that was to last about two months, and he an­ nounced that he would not select his cabinet until after his return. On his trip he was received everywhere with enthusiasm by the officials and peo­ ple of the countries visited, and it was believed the tour would, do much to cement the friendly relations between the Latin American nations and the United States. Legislation for naval construction, flood control and farm relief occupied much time in congress from the first of the year. The first, as finally passed, provided for the construction of fifteen cruisers and one plane car­ rier and carried $364,000,000. In the matter of flood control President Cool- idge insisted that the states especially interested must share the cost, and the measure adopted recognized this principle and appropriated $325,000,000 for the work. The President was equally insistent against the McNary- Haugen farm relief measure and when Both houses passed it be vetoed it Another major piece of legislation was the finance till which reduced taxes more than $200,000,000. The Boulder Canyon dam project, so dear to Cali­ fornia, was the subject of a long and bitter fight The house passed the bill, but when congress adjourned on May 29 it was left as unfinished business in the senate. Congress assembled for the short term on December S with small prospect of. passing any important measures except the necessary supply bills. The Republicans decided that the matter of tariff revision should be taken up early in January, but it was virtually agreed ,upon that this and farm relief should be'passed on to a special session which Mr. Hoover had said he would calj. President Coolidge in bis message gave an account of his stewardship for five and a half years and pictured the state of the nation as most favorable, with peace, pros­ perity and good irill unprecedented. The senate passed the Boulder dam bill amended to meet objections. President and Mrs. Coolidge spent their summer vacation at a fishing lodge in northern Wisconsin. Their son -John went to work in the offices of an eastern railroad, and in Novem­ ber his engagement to Miss Florence Trumbull, daughter of the governor of Connecticut, was announced. The convention of the. American Legion was held iu San Xntonio1 Tex­ as., in October and Paul V. McNutt was elected national commander. At the same time the United Spanish War Veterans met In Havana, Cuba. In September the Grand Army of the Re­ public held Us encampment in Den­ ver and chose John Reese for its com- mander-in-chief. ; AERONAUTICS Col. Charles'LIndberzh carried over the Latin American countries around the Caribbean sea, and interest in his doings was maintained through 1928. On February 29 he was award­ ed the Wtiodrow Wilson medal and $25,000, and three weeks later Presi­ dent Coolidge pinned on bis breast the Congressional Medal of Honor. In May he became connected with an air transport company. Late in the year he flew to Mexico and was the guest there of Ambassador Morrow, which gave rise to the report that be was to marry Miss Morrow.- Tlie year saw some great events in aeronautics. First of these was Bert Hinkler’s solo flight from England to Australia in 15 days. Then in April Koehl and von Huenefeld of Germany and Fitzmaurice of Ireland, starting from Dublin, made the first west­ bound nonstop flighty across the At­ lantic, landing on Greenly island in the Straits of Belle Isle. Capt. G. H. Wilkins and Carl B. Eilson made a remarkable flight across the Arctic regions from Point Barrow to Spitz- bergen in April. The monoplane South­ ern Cross with a crew of four flew from Oakland, Calif., to Australia with stops at Hawaii and the Fiji islands; and two Italian aviators flew from Rome to Brazil. In June Amelia Earliart and two pilots flew from New Foundland to Wales. Art Goebel flew from Los Angeles to New York with­ out stop in 18 hours 58 minutes, and Tucker and CoIIyer made the same flight in the other direction in 24 hours 51 minutes. Soon afterwards these two airmen were killed when their plane crashed in Arizona. An­ other great achievement was the flight of the huge German dirigible Graf Zeppelin from Friedrichschafen, Ger­ many, to Lakehurst, N. J., carrying mails, freight and paying passengers, and her safe return. Tragedies of the air were numer­ ous, the most spectacular being the loss of the airship ItiUia on which Commander Nobile of Italy and a large party were exploring the Arctic re­ gions from Spitzbergen. Tlie dirigible fell on the ice floes and some of the men, were carried away with the bal­ loon part and never found. Others, with Nobile, were rescued after many attempts by airplanes and icebreaking steamers. Capt RoaId Amundsen, the famous polar explorer, was among those who attempted to reach the survivors by airplane, and he and his five companions perished in the icy wastes. In March Capt. Walter Hinch- cliffe and >1188 Elsie Mackay of Eng­ land attempted the western flight across the Atlantic and were lost at sea. Captain Carranza of Mexico, who had made a nonstop flight from Mexico City to New York, was caught in an electric storm as he started home and perished in New -Jersey. Capt. C. T. Courtney and three com­ panions, flying from the Azores to America, were forced down In mid- ocean but were picked np by a steam­ ship, and the same thing happened to two Polish aviators who started from Paris. Hasseli and Cramer ,of Rockford, Ul., flew to Cochrane, Ont., and thence started for Stockholm via Greenland. They reached their first stopping place, Mount Evans, but their plane was too crippled to continue. In October Com. BL C. MacDonald, Eng­ lish aviator, undertook to fly from Newfoundland to England alone in a small plane and was lost at sea. A novelty that may be promising was the gyroscope plane, invented by a Spaniard, in which he flew across the English channel, rising and des­ cending almost vertically. Marking the twenty-fifth anni­ versary of the first flight of the Wright brothers, an international civ­ il aviation conference opened in Washington on December 12 with 40 nations represented. Orville Wright was the guest of honor and Charles Lindbergh was presented with the Harmon medal awarded by the In­ ternational League of Aviators.

Southern Bank & Trust.Company. ByA.T.GRANT, Atty. You buttom your heavy coat up around vour chin and strike out through the brisk air down a city boulevard. Before you proceed far you hear a voice at your elbow: “Could you help me out a little please, mister? Just another beggar, but no that look of distress seems to be reaj. His clothes are neat but show the re­ sults of long usage. I’m a mechanic, but I was laid off over two months ago. It’s mighty bard luck, mister, to be out of work here in the city, but I’ll get a job soon.” Hard luck it is indeed, and all too common an occurance in the life of the industrial worker of the big city. For unemployment exists even in periods of good business. Changes and readjustments are forever tak­ ing place in industry, new machines are daily throwing men out of em­ ployment for long and short periods, Such times and such incidents cause us to feel that farming or life in a small city like this one certainly has its advantages. When unem­ ployment happens to strike a com* munity like ours there is always sympathetic help ready for the man who is temporarily “down on his luck.” His friend the grocer ex­ tends credit. His.more fortunate neighbors lend a hand. Neither he nor his family really feels the oppres­ sive hand of want. The farmer, even when capable I and efficient, often knows/the mean­ ing of hard luck. Crop failuresf market depression, heavy taxes and mortgage payments—these com bine to make his business appear like a highly unproductive enterprise But it is not necessary for us to state our position in this respect here. Ourxeaders realize full well that we are committed -to any workable pro. gram which will bring economic. Jequality to agriculture. The point we emphasize here "is this: However bad agricultural con­ ditions may become the farmer is of a comfortable.- well heatsd home, j foodstuffs raised on his land will pre­ vent himself and family from suffer, ing, liberal credit from his friend who owns the store in town' and en ougb surplus cash to enable him to clothe and send the children to school. The dissatisfied farmer who rushes to the city in search of good wages is, in our opinion, making a serious mistake,—Concord Observer. DR. E. e.

Judging by the way, they act most ®>iddle-age people must feel younger J. D. Mason, of Belon, S. C., does not believe that politics in. the pulpit has been entirely abandoned by those who so bitterly denounced the attitude of preacher and lay­ man in the recent campaign. In a letter to the New York Herald Tri­ bune. he calls attention to the re­ cent preambulations of the New York Governor-elect who . motored .with a caravan of Tammany Hall Braves from Warm Springs to Chipley1 Ga., to attend a political meeting in a Methodist church and and participate in injecting Frank­ lin Roosevelt Democratic partisan politics in that church’s pulpit, from which he smilingly heard himself referred to as an “ adopted Georgian,” “ President in 1932,” and his own Warm Springs, Ga., called the next summer of . 1933 White House. With him were New York State Senator Bernard Downing. New York Assemblyman Maurice Blocb and other New York politicians, who used the Methodist church of Chipley, Ga,, and its parson, the Rev. H. T Smith, in a 100 pet cent Roosevelt for President in 1932 partisan politcal pow-wow. “I cannot help recalling,” says Mr. Mason, “ the scathing refer­ ences Governor - elect Roosevelt made to the intoleraut bigots and political parsons who would use the pulpit and the church or even be partisan or anti-partisan under­ taking or discussion. No, siree! Candidate Franklin - D. -Soosevelt never would permit any s|yli_ jtse. of Tbe^afsS^vpHonage, 0? pul pi t. but he did on December 4 , 1928.” —Graham Messenger. Why Not Enforce? Before national prphibition be came effective thirty-three of our states had adopted statewike prohi­ bition, North Carolina being one of the thirty three. It vyould be much more difficult for each of these states to protect its own borders from the aggressiveness of the li­ quor interests than for the United States to protect all its frontiers from smuggling, whether such smuggling consists of dope illegal immigrants or intoxicating liquor. The time has come when the newspapers of the country should recognize their duty to attack ille gal speakeasies, night clubs and bootleggers and the local officials who openly permit and encourage these conditions, instead of those Federal officials who are earnestly seeking to perform their oaths cf office by upholding the constitution ot the United States!' As Ppresi- dent Coolidge pointed out in his last message to congress: “ Under the .terms of the constitution, how­ ever; the obligation is equally on the states to exercise the power which they have-through the ex­ ecutive, legislative, judicial and police branches of their govern­ ments in behalf of enforcement. The urgent heed of the day is that our local, state and Mty officials co-operate whole-heartedly with the Federal government, first by en-. acting the needed laws against the bootleggers find speakeasies, and second, by enforcing such laws in their local courts instead of saying to the other states: “ We won’t play with you unless you play, our way.”—Ex.. ^ If we could get a war on between the flour mills, the packing houses and the c l o t h i n g manufacturers it might be possible to cut living ex­ penses.

ThousaridS: of New Englanders who have eotne into the South in recent years voted the Democratic ticket merelyj Tojr the sake of being politebto lbesr neighbors.

Do this three or foui iimes a day, or oftener the first dav. It is easy to be" seen why this is just suited a preventive. The dis­ ease is fnicrobic; its seat is in the lungs. ,Bv this process the fumes of these two wed known germicides are made to pervade the entire lungsso_as to destroy the'germs. This virtually was the treatment given by two eminently successful physicians. Simple prescription works wond­ ers, so it is claimed. The Newport, R. I., board of health office, a few years ago, dis­ tributed a small lot of circulars con­ taining the following pneumonia treatment: Take 6 to 10 onions, according to size, and chop fine, put them in: a large spider over a hot fire, then add about the same quantity of rye meal and vinegar enough to form a the paste. In the meantime stir The following influenza pneumonia preventives and re­ medies have been sent to Montgo­ mery's Vindicator by a reader with a .,request that they be published: TThere is a simple, safe and inex­ pensive influenza preventive that is certainly worth securing. Take a half ounce each of tincture of creo­ sote and of liquid asafeodita. Break a hole in the bottom of a small vial Jo admit the air. Fill this vial with cotton. Then pour ten or twelve drops of the mixture on the cotton put the neck of the vial in mouth and draw four or five long it thoroughly, letting it simmer 5 or 10 minutes. Then put .it in a cotton bag large enough to cover the lungs and apply to the chest as hot as patient can bear. ' In about ten minutes apply an­ other and thus continue by reheat-, ing the poultices, and in a few hours the patient, will be out of danger. This simpfe remedy has never, failed to cure this too often fatal malady. Usually 3 or 4 ap­ plications will . be sufficient, but continue always until alRdanger is over and passed. _ The man or woman who donated to the Red Cross work, the Salva­ tion Army and the poor during the holidays got more enjoyment out of giving than the tight-wad who didn’t contribute a penny to these worthy objects.

If we are not mistaken Moeks- villfe is to have two elections this spring—one to determine wfio is to be mayor, town commissioners and school commissioners, the other to say whether or not the‘town shall dispose of her light and power plant. These elections are both important, and the voters should inform themselves before casting their vote. It has been suggested that a good way to get rid of the bootlegger would be to send every man who buys any whisky to jail for thirty or sixty days. Might be a good idea, provided the various counties were able to enlarge their jails so they would hold all the buyers. One thing is certain, if uo one bought liquor there wouldn’t be much blockading. We are all waiting and watching for. a big chunk of prosperity 'that is due to hit this year. About the only, folks who are handling much money these, days are the ones-who are'making and selling automobiles and who own stock in Reynolds or some other big corporation. The working man, such as the farmer, the doctor ,-the mechanic, the editor and otherlittle fellows,are havinga hard time making buckle and. ton- guemeet. • • Therev are several things this town needs that we can’t get just now, but a few improvements could be secured if the local folks would go after them. Our telephone system could be improved by giv­ ing the town an all-time ✓service— day and night and on Sundaj’s. We are paying the same rents that the Bell Telephone Co., is charging in Statesville, Salisbury and other towns and cities.,or so we-have been informed. If we are to pay the same rates we should get the same service. There is considerable com­ plaint and the owners of the local excaange should get busy and im­ prove the service.. Another thing we need is more qr better lights in the postoffice lobby. With all the •mail boxes combination locks, the patrons have,much trouble on dark days in getting their mail. There are but two lights in -the lobby, neither of which is placed where the lights gives much aid to the person trying to open their mail box. Stronger bulbs would be very much appreciated by the general public. Birthday Dinner. On Dec. 28 theighty-sev_en neigh­ bors and friends met at the home of Rev. J. H. Groce and gave him and his aunt that lives with him a surprise birthday, Brother Groce being 48 and aunt Betsey 83 years of age. "At noon a table" was spread with everything that goes to make a good dinner. The after­ noon was spent with piano and harp music, singing and a general social time. Of interest to all and espe­ cially the young folks was a woman of about 75 years playing the piano the songs of her girlhood days. Everybody seemed to enjoy the day and hope for them many more such birthdays. ONE PRESENT. T H E & A V IE R E C O R D , M O C K SV iL LE , N. C .

The purpose of this water plant is to keep the engine cooled to a tem perature that will make it efficient in oper­ ation. If it were not for this j the cylinder walls would be­ come overheated and the pistons refuse to operate. The cooling system of the new Ford is particularly in­ teresting because it is so simple and reliable. W hen the radiator is full of water, the engine of the new Ford will not overheat under the hardest driving. Yet the water is so regulated that it will not im pair en­ gine operation' by running too cold in winter. Tbe cooling surface of the Ford radiator is IargeL -with four rows of tubes set The hot w ater around the cylinder head is drawn to the radiator to be cooled by a centrifugal water pum p of new design. The entire cooling system of the new Ford is so simple in design and so carefully made that it requires very little attention. The radiator should be kept full, of course, and drained once each m onth so that Sedimentwill not collect and retard the free passage of water. In cold' weather, a reliable anti-freeze solu- tion should be added. As owner and manager of this im portant water plant you should also see that tbs water , pum p and fan shaft are properly lubricated and th e p ack in g aro u n d / th e pum p shaft kept in adjust­ ment. * -’S I t i i a - iMSt*--' .H dse connections m ay also negd replacement, after The Morrisett Co.

The circuits which carrv tlie quotations are inspected, tested and watched over with perse- YUiiiu rare by the maintenance de- nartaieiit of the telegraph company.

All quo­ tations are sent out over a typewriter­ like kevliuard by operators who have bee,, siiuniled in this work.

York.—Raw materials for syn­ thetic pipe stems, umbrella handles or cue balls, and for synthetic anti­ knock gasoline are to be manufactured at a Pennsylvania steel mill. Syn­ thetic furniture is predicted as-a fu­ ture development. The announcement revealing this large-scale entry of a steel business into the by-products field comes from CoatesviIUh Pa., where the Lukens Steel company has ordered a large, low-temperature coal distillation plant, the first to be installed by an Amer­ ican steel mill. This kind of coal distillation Is new in the United States. One of its out­ standing differences from other coal processes is that it produces about two and a half times the amount of tars from which synthetic resins are made. Chemistry has, created a new series of articles of daily use from these resins. They include brilliantly col­ ored pencils and pens, tiling for bath­ rooms, brightly colored tops and stop­ pers tor all sorts of tubes and bottles, a large variety of radio parts and scores of electrical insulations for au­ tomobiles. Dr. Walter Runge of the Interna­ tional Coal Carbonization company, which is installing the distillation plant, says it does not require an ex­ travagant imagination to picture the manufacture of furniture, wainscoting and ornamental building material from coal tar. Prediction that coal tars would pro­ vide materials tor making outer walls of buildings in rainbow colors was made before the international confer­ ence on bituminous coal in Pittsburgh in November. The gasoline made as a by-product from the low-temperature distillation of coal is said to contain 60 per cent more anti-knock qualities than that from. other processes. It is sold for mixing with some petroleum gaso­ lines. The Lubens plant, for which ground will be broken early in 1929, will be built to distill 560 tons of bituminous coal daily. Girl Earns $600 to Pay . for Course in Flying Fremont, Neb. — Nineteen-yesir-old Josephine Al. Schaefer took an air­ plane ride during a Fourth of July celebration at Humphrey two years ago. That settled the career question tor her, She would be a pilot Her father, Joseph Schaefer of Nor­ folk, didn't take so kindly to the idea. Josephine determined upon earning her own money to pay the tuition at a flying school. But jobs ior young women were scarce. The girl came to Fremont, tried several jobs and finally found she could mnkd and save more money as a waitress. She worked twelve hours a day. every day until she had saved $600. With it she paid for a 50-hour course. Josephine now is finding out that an ambitious aviation enthusiast spends many hours on the ground toy­ ing with valves and pistons before she goes aloft. Her father relented and bought the girl flying togs. I,lOO-Yefur-Old Saxon Cross Found in Abbey.

Washington. — Little Liechtenstein hails Good Prince Johann II as Ire at­ tains the seventieth year of his reign. If he lives two years more he will equal the phenomenal record of Louis XIV'of France. Jolmnn was' crowned prince of Liechtenstein the yertr Queen Victoria was proclaimed empress of India and Minnesota was admitted to the Dnion. The. Dred Scott decision was 'a fresh political issue. Aoraham Lincoln was still a lawyer in Springfield. 111. Little Change in 70 Years. ; “Seventy years that have seen the transformation of the world have wit­ nessed relatively little change in the principality of Liechtenstein, tucked away between Switzerland and Aus­ tria in a mountain valley near the source of the Rhine,” says a bulletin from the Washington (D. 0.) head­ quarters of the National Geographic society. “The standing army of 80 men hur­ ried off. in 1866 to the Austro-Prus- stan war, but got to the front too late to fight. An army that can’t find a battle ought to hunt other work. Prince Johann decided. He ordered his infantry to turn In tlieif equip­ ment. The muskets and leather hel­ mets of the late Liechtenstein army can be seen today in the royal chateau museum. Demobilization was probably the prince’s first important reform. - “Of course electricity has come to Liechtenstein., The Rhine rushing along the national border gives up its energy to light the towns, operate telephones and run the elevator which has been built into the massive walls of the ancient Burg Vaduz fortress- prflace. Prince Johann at eighty-four finds an elevator useful. “When weekly movies first flickered at Vaduz, all Liechtenstein rocked with the news. Tlie.coming of a spin­ ning mill to the capital and of a cot­ ton weaving factory to Triesen could be considered equivalent to 'lie rise of steel at Pittsburgh and of autnmo- : biles at Detroit. Yet dairying with mild-eyed Swiss cattle remains the basic industry. Liechtensteiners are farmers even unto many generations. “Prince Johann crossing from one side of his tower room to the other can look upon most of his Graustark- ian domain. Sixty-two square miles is Liechtenstein; eight square miles less than the District of Columbia. The Comparison does not complete the pic­ ture. Washington’s miles are reason­ ably square; Liechtenstein’s tend to­ ward cubes. A dozen peaks in this miniature kingdom tower more than a mile in the sky. Liechtenstein is five miles wide, twenty miles long and one mile high. Chateau Towers Over Capitol. “The royal chateau caps a crag above Vaduz, the capital, much like AIonticeIlo commands a hill above Charlottesville, Vn. A single misstep and Prince Johann would tumble in upon his government! The Regierung, or eapitol building, stands directly under the precipice which the chateau surmounts. “It is truly said that no visitor'can remain a stranger within the gates of neighborly Liechtenstein. ‘Sgott’ is the password of greeting offered with­ out introduction. The village harber knows tlie nationality, business and marital state of every one who stays overnight. An Americah who visited 'the principality tells that while watch­ ing the weekly movie at the inn he distinctly heard a voice in the dark say, ‘He has had a hot bath at the hotel every night since he came.’ “Absentee monarchy best describes Liechtenstein’s government. Prince Johann rules his 11,000 subjects from Vienna most of the year. The system works well. Trust of his people has been repayed with affection and obe­ dience. By wiping out the public-debt and keeping the Liechtenstein budget down to $7 per person, he merits the generous honor of the title Johann the Good. “Liechtenstein is today the only German state which is still a mon­ archy.” Kitten Uses 2nd Life Whep “Killed by Gas” Gardiner, Maine.—Air. and Mrs. George Folk awoke feeling, slightly ill recently. Mr. Folk went downstairs to the kitchen, directly below his bedroom, and saw stretched across the gas stove the rigid body of the yel­ low kitten which was a cher­ ished pet of the household. One of the gas valves was open, apd Mr. Folk, knowing the kitten’s habit of playing !.with any movable object at hand, realized that his pet was the victim of his own mischief. He tenderly carried the ’ body outdoors and laid it 'on . the lawn, to await burial, and went upstairs to inform his wife of q their bereavement. When they came down for breakfast later, however, a “meow” at the door proclaimed the presence of tlie kitten, which,' cat-like, refused to stay dead. SEEKS SOLITUDE TO PURGE SOUL Moans From H idden Shack A ttract H unter. Pottsville, Pa.—After two months of self-imposed, isolation to purge ner- self of wrongdoing, a twenty-three- year-old girl was found in a hysterical condition from undernourishment in a shack in the heart of a woods five miles north of here. The hiding place of the girl, Anna Sincoskie of Cunibola, six miles east of Pottsville, was discovered uy Mar­ tin Gpss of Seltzer, who heard her moaning while he -was hunting in the forest. He summoned Detective Louis Buo- no and Policeman Silas Collins of Pottsville, who persuaded the young woman to leave her lonely retreat and go to Pottsville. An examination by a physician revealed that she was suffering from lack of food and Iron) exposure. She was wearing old. torn clothing, which offered only feeble protection against the fall weather. The. girl told the police she had been living at the tumbledown shack for more than five months, and in that time has subsisted upon berries and herbs piclyid in the woods and on what she could beg from farmers when she occasionally ventured out of the w&ods. - Admitting that eight months ago she had been arrested, she told police that she decided to leave her home and go into tlie woods to “cleanse my soul.” She blamed her troubles on her home life, which, she said, was one-of abuse, and liquor. Farmers living on the edge of the forest recalled seeing the girl, but told police they had no knowledge that she had been living alone in the hidden lint. Sawdust Saving Worth y Millions of Dollars New York.—By making thinner saws, which will save as little as one- sixteenth of an inch in the width,of cuts made, in wood,- an annual waste of sawdust amounting to more than $60,000,006 may be saved for thq American lumber industry! -This report was-made recently to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers by a special research com­ mittee on saws and knives.Efficient standardization ' of saws, the committee said, might accomplish the saving. The annual waste In saw- Iogs was estimated it $30,000,000 with an additional sawdust waste of $33,-. 000,000 In manufacture of. logs into boards. A “doubtful” saving of $4,- 000,000 in power, with thinner saws was estimated, bringing the grand to­ tal of value, of sawdust waste that might be avoided to $67,000,000.

The mouse was not even in a\room witli tlie women. It crossed their trail on the < Open streets of Sheffield. The men were corporation em­ ployees, engaged in street cleaning work with a motor lorry, one being the driver. When the scneams were heard the driver jumped off the lorry and ran to the back of the vehicle, where his companion was standing. The lorry, which was on an incline, ran backward and struck both' men. One died almost immediately. The coroner at' tlie inquest returned a verdict of “Accidental death” and remarked: “Fancy, these women 'screaming about a mouse cost the poor fellow his life and the poor devil the driver sucli serious injury." Madman in Tower Perils Rail Passengers Houston, Texas--Seizing control of a- signal tower at the intersection of the Southern Pacific and Interna­ tional and Great Northern railroad tracks here, a madman turned rail traffic topsy turvy by throwing block- signals with all. the recklessness of a boy experimenting with a Christmas toy. Lucidly there were no collisions, but it took some time for dispatchers to untangle 'the scramble of passen­ ger and freight trains after the self- appointed director had been relieved of his job by two policemen. Mounting the tower with a pistol in one hand,' the maniac threatened L. R. Cotton, the towerman, who fled. Then . he took charge, pulling levers in rapid order with no regard for traf­ fic rules or the lives of the crews and passengers depending on the block signals.

Heretofore all Buddhist tem­ ples have been of wooden construc­ tion and of a uniform architecture, varying only in detail and. size. Offi­ cials of the temple declare that they learned by the earthquake of 1923 that concrete construction is neces­ sary to insure permanence. In or­ der to maintain the -peculiar Buddhist architecture of the temple, the ex­ terior will be painted the dark color of polished hardwood. The interior will be lined with the special wood always used in temple buildings. The new building will cost about $1,500,- 000, to raise which a campaign lias already been started. Long-Lived Indians An Indian chief, whose age is given in tribal records as one hundred and thirty, is mourned at Vallevista, Calif., by four sons, each of whom Is more than ninety. The aged lead­ er was Manuel Portes, chief of the Santa Rosa Indians. The tribal rec­ ords relate that Portes was born in 1798 and that he passed his entire life in the vicinity of the Santa Rosa mountains.

CHAPTER III—Continued —6— 4T reckon that’ll be Bine?” Harris tesked of Evans and th^ lanky one nod- fed. The men scattered round the cor­ ral and each watched his chance to put his rope on some chosen horse. The roan kept others always between himself and any man with a rope but at last he passed Harris with but 'one horse between. Harris Hipped his noose across the back of the interven­ ing horse and over the hlue roan’s head. “You’ve been basted and rope-burnt a time or two,” Harris remarked, and he led the horse out to saddle him. The big blue leaned back, crouching on bis haunches as the man put on the hackamore. His eyes rolled wiclc1- Tdly as Harris smoothed the saddle blanket and he flinched away with a whistling snort of fear, his nostrils flaring, as the heavy saddle was thrown on his back. Harris tightened the front cinch and the blue borse braced himself and drew in a long, deep breath. “That’s right, Blue, you swell up and inflate yourself,” Harris said. “I’ll have to squeeze it out of you." He fastened the hind cinch loosely, .hen returned to the front and hauled on the latigo until the pressure forced the horse to. release the indrawn breath and it leaked out of him with a groaning sigh. “I wonder now why Morrow is whet­ ting his tommyhawk for me,” Harris remarked as be inspected the big roan. “You’re a hard one, Blue. I'll let that saddle warm up on you before I top you off.” "Well, step op on him and let’s be going,” Morrow ordered surlily. Harris took a short hold on the rope reins of the hackamore with his left hand, cramped the horse’s head toward him and gripped the mane, his right band on the horn, and swung gently to the saddle, easing into it without a jar. “Easy Blue!” he said, holding up the big roan’s head. “Don’t you hang your bead with me.” He eased the horse to a jerky start and they were off for Brill's at a shuffling trot Three times In the first mile Blue bunched himself nervously and made a few stiff jumps but each time Har­ ris held him steady. “You’d have made one good little horse. Bine,” he said, “if some sport hadn’t spoiled you on the start.” They left the horses drooping at the several Mtch rails before the post and crowded in.Some detached themselves from the group and occupied themselves with writing. Several started a game of stud poker at one of the many tables. Harris wrote a few letters before join­ ing In the play, and as he looked up from time to time he caught many curious glances leveled upon • him. Morrow had been busily spreading the tidings that a would-be squatter was among them and they were curious to see the man who had deliberately de- fied'the unwritten law of the Cold- river range. Waddles had instructed Evdns to start the men back before the spree bad progressed to a point where they would refuse to leave Brill’s and so leave tbe Three Bar short-handed. At the end of two,hours he looked at his watch and snapped It shut. “Turn out!” he shouted. “On yonr horses I” CHAPTER IV It Is said that there cqmes a day In the life of every handler of bad horses when be will mount one and ride hlh) out. master him and dis­ mount—and forever after decline to ride another. RiIey Foster was evi­ dence of this. For three years Rile and Bangs had been inseparable, rid Ing together on every job, and the shaggy youth topped off the animals In Foster’s string before the older man would mount them. As Bangs went about his work his faded blue eyes were ever turned toward the Three Bar boss who stood in the door of the blacksmith shop. The girl was vaguely troubled .as she noted this. Bangs and Foster had returned for th e ir second season at t Three Bar. All through the pre­ vious summer tbe boy had evidenced his silent adoration, his eyes follow­ ing her every move. The scene round Biilie was one of strenuous activity, every effort bent toward whipping the remuda into shape for the calf round-up in the least possible space of time. Green horses were led out, one after another, to be saddled for the first time, and those previously broken re- Bangs Was Topping a Horse That Strenuously Refused to Be Conquered. quired a few workouts to knock tbe wire edge oft their unwillingness to carry a rider after a winter of free­ dom on the range. Three men were shoeing horses tied to snubbing posts at ten-yard inter­ vals before the shop. One animal that bad fought viciously against this treatment had been thrown and stretched, his four feet roped to con­ venient posts, and while he struggled and heaved on the ground Rile Foster calmly fitted and nailed the shoes on him. Cal Harris finished shoeing the colt he was working. . “That’s tbe last touch,” he s&d. “My string is all set to go.” “You have five colts gentled for yoar circle bunch,” she said.' “But you didn’t pick a single cow horse. The boys have sorted out the best ones and the few that are left won’t an­ swer for a man that insists on a gen­ tled string.” “Creamer'and Calico will do for me,” he said. ‘“I broke them myself and maybe I can worry along.” “Did you break them ‘like that!” she asked. Bangs was topping a horse that strenuously refused to be conquered and as they looked on the animal threw himself. “Like that? Well, no—not precise­ ly,” Harris said. “They’re not break­ ing horses. They’re proving that they’re bronc-peelers that can ride ’em before they’re broke. A horse started out that way will be a bronc till the day be dies.” Three men were lashing their bed rolls and war bags on three pack horses and when this task was com­ pleted they rode down the lane, each one leading his pack'animal. Harris knew this as evidence that they would start after the calves on the following day. The custom was to exchange representatives to ride with each wag­ on within a reasonable distance, the reps toMook after the interest of the brand for which they rode. “How many reps do you trade?” be asked.. “Three," she said. “Halfmoon D, V L and with siade.” The Halfmoon D lay some fifteen miles eastward along the foot of the hills; the V L the same distance to the west, but cached away In a pocket that led well back Into tbe base of the range, a comparatively small outfit owned by the Brandons, father and four sons, who made every effort to keep the bulk of their cows ranging in their own home basin and ex­ changed reps only with the Three Bar. “Slade’s home place lay forty miles south and a little West and his cows grazed for over a hundred miles, re­ quiring three, wagons to cover his range. During the afternoon the three reps came In to replace the men who had left. The surplus horses bad been cut out and thrown back on the range, only those required for the remuda remaining in the pasture lot The chuck wagon was wheeled before tbe cookhouse door and packed for an early start Before thj first streaks of dawn the men nad saddled and breakfasted. It w«s turning gray in the east when fo’jr horses, necessi­ tating . the attentions of four men, were booked to the. wagon. A man bung on the bit of each wheel hursa while another grasped the bits of the lead team as Waddles made on last hasty- trip inside. "This will be a rocky ride for a mile or two,” he prophesied, as he mounted tbe seat and braced him­ self. “These willow-tails haven’t had on a strap of harness for many a month. AU set Turn looser The men stepped back and the four horses hit the collars raggedly. One wheel horse reared and jumped for­ ward. The off leader dropped his head and pitched, shaking himself as U struggling to unseat a rider, then the four settled into a Jerkey run and the heavy wagon clattered and lurched down the lane. The wrangler, whose duty It was to tend the horse herd by day, and the nlghthawk who would guard It at night sat on their horses at the far end of the corral and urged the herd out as the gates swung back. The remuda streamed down tbe valley, the two first riders swinging wide to either flank while the night hawk and wrangler brought up the rear. Shortly before noon the wagon was halted in a broad bottom threaded by a tiny spring-fed stream. The teams were unhitched; mounts were unsad­ dled and thrown into the horse herd, which was then headed into the mouth of a branching draw and allowed to graze. Waddles dumped off the Bed rolls that were piled from the broad lowered tail-gate to the wagon top and eacb man sorted out his own and spread it upon, some spot which struck him as a likely ber ground. It was not long before Waddles was dispensing nourishment from the low­ ered tail-gate, ladling food and hot coffee into the plates and cups which the men held out to him. They drew away and sat cross-legged on tha ground. The meal was almost fin­ ished when six horsemen rode down the valley and pulled up before the wagon. “What’s the chance for scraps?" the leader asked. “Step down,” Waddles invited. “And throw a feed In you. She’s still a- steaming.” Four of the men differed In no ma­ terial way from tbe Three Bar men In appearance. The fifth was a ruf­ fian with little forehead, a face of gorilla cast, stamped with brute fe­ rocity and small intelligence. Tbe last of the six was a striking figure, a big man with puie white hair and brows, his pale eyes peering from a red face, “The roasted albino is Harper, oufi leading bad man in these parts,’1 Evans remarked to Harris. “And th« human ape is Lang; Fisher, Coleman, Barton and Canfield are the rest Mice layout of murderers and such.” Harper’s men ate unconcernedly, conscious that they were marked aJ men who had violated every law on tbe calendar, but knowing also that no man would take exceptions to their presence on that general ground alone, and as they had neared the wagon each man bad scanned the faces of the round-up crew to make certain that there were none among them who might bear some more spe­ cific and personal dislike. The Three Bar men chatted and fraternized with them as they would have done with the riders of any le­ gitimate outfit. Harper praised the food that Waddles tendered them. ■ Billie Warren forced a smile as she. nodded to them, then moved off and sat upon a rock some fifty yards from the wagon, despising the six men who ate her fare and Inwardly raging at the conditions which forced her to ex­ tend the hospitality of the Three Bai to men of their breed whenever they chanced by. Harris strolled over and sat down facing her, sifting tobacco into a brown paper and deftly rolling his smoke. “Has it been on your mind—what I was telling you a few nights back, about how much I- was loving you?" he asked. “You nad . your chance to prove It by going away,” she said, “and re­ fused; so why bring it up again? The next two years will be bard enough without my having to listen to that.” (TO B E CONTINUED.) Improved Uniform International Universal Belief in Horseshoe as “Lucky* Almost everyone at some time hap found a horseshoe. And almost every­ one who found one has either proudly hung It up or tucked it away for safe keeping.

There is much disparity between the subject and the Scripture unit se­ lected for study. Since the plan is to present the subject topically, using the many texts, it is proper that we should first give a definition of sin. The etymology of the word trans­ lated sin in both the Hebrew and the Greek signifies “to deviate from the way—to miss the mark”; therefore a going aside. Failure to measure up to a standard is sin. Sin is also the transgression of the law (I John 3:4). The positive meaning then is that sin Is a transgression of the law. Deeper than all this is the condition of the soul, out of which all thought and ac­ tions spring. This is called by Paul concupiscence (Rom. 7:7, 8). I. The Origin of Sin (Gen. 3:1-24). Man was placed on probation in the Garden of Eden. This was necessary because Adam was created with the possibility of character, but not with character. This he could get only through testing. Free will, alternative choice, which Adam possessed as a creature bearing the likeness and Image of God, made character possible and inevitable. Character is the resultant of choice. Tbe means used was most simple. God issued just one prohibition. Along­ side the tree of good and evil was the tree of life. Satan, a personal being, appeared Jn the guise of a serpent He insinuated doubt into Eve’s mind and appealed to innocent appetite. She gazed upon and lusted after that which God had forbidden. Following this, she involved Adam In her sin. From this account we see that sin orig­ inated, so far as the race is concerned, In the free choice of the head of the race, and through the law of heredity has passed upon all-mankind. II. The Universality of Sin (Rom. 3:10-18). By the use of numerous quotations from the Scriptures, Paul proves, that every member of the race is guilty of sin. He does not admit of an excep­ tion. III. The Fate of Sinners (Gen. 6:5-8) . 1 The disobedience of man greatly dis­ pleased God and He resolved to de­ stroy man from the face of the earth. God’s nature is such that sin must be punished. IV. The Source of Sin (Mark. 7:14-23). All evil thinking and practice spring out of the heart of man. The heart stands for the very center and foun­ dation of the personality. The reason men think vile thoughts is because of their vile nature, which Is' the result of original sin. , V. The Sins of Believers (I John 1:5-2:6). 1. How perceived (v.’5). God is here declared., to be tight Therefore sin is perceived through the glorious light of the Divine being. No one can see God without seeing him­ self a vile sinner. To claim fellowship with God while walking in darkness is tbe lie of life. 2. The Divine remedy for sin (v. 7). It is the blood of Jesus Christ Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. 3. The believer’s responsibility (v. 9). It is. to confess bis sin. It is only when we are conscious of our. sins in the light of God that we are dis­ posed to make confession of tbem. 4. God grants forgiveness and cleansing (vv. 9, 10). Because of His provision in the atonement of Jesus Christ God is able on the basis of justice, to forgive tbe sinner who confesses his sin. Be­ cause of His faithfulness In dealing with His children on the basis of' the finished work of Christ, Be not only forgives, but He cleanses them from all sin. 5. Christ the believer’s advocate (2 :1, 2). For believers to sin is not necessary, but the advocate who champions his cause in case of sin is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, who on Calvary’s cross made a propitiation for his sin. 6. Chrisfs followers obey Him (v. 5). Those who have experienced God’s saving grace render obedience to EUs Word. It is proposed to link Norlii, Cen­ tral and South America by a greai highway. fV The Love of Christ A stream can rise no higher than its source. It takes the love of Christ coming into a man’s heart to raise him above himself, sweep away the sins be cannot conquer, and fill him with peace, and power. Wealth Wealth Is a weak-anchor and glory cannot support a.man; this is the law of God, that virtue only Is firm and cannot be- shaken by a - tempest.— Pythagoras.

We have control over that, and it’s the function that causes the most trou­ ble. \ See that your chil­ dren form regular bowel habits, and at the .first sign of bad breath, coated tongue, bUlousness or constipation, give them a UtUe California Fig Syrup. It regulates the bowels and stomach and gives these organs tone and strength so they continue to act as Nature intends them to. It helps buUd np and strengthen pale, listless, underweight chUdren. Children love its rich, fruity taste and it’s purely vegetable, so you can give Ii as often as your child’s appetite lags or he y seems feverish, cross or fretful. Leading physicians have endorsed it for 50 years, and Its overwhelming sales record of over four million bot­ tles a year shows how mothers depend on It A Western mother, Mrs. B. W. Stewart, 4112 Baritan St, Denver, Colorado, says: “Raymond was ter­ ribly pulled down by constipation. He got weak, fretful and cross, had no appetite or energy and food seemed tp sour In Ws stomach. California Fig Syrup had him romping and play­ ing again in just a few days, and soon he was back to normal weight, looking better'than he had looked in months.” Protect your child from imitations of California Fig Syrup.

(Prepared fev. the United States Department of Agriculture.) Interest in the making of hooked rugs at home has become very wide­ spread during the past few years since this old art was revived, by ex­ tension workers among farm women. Lite . several other phases of home demonstration work, knowing how to make hooked and also braided and woven rugs has appealed to the farm jvoman from two standpoints: Beau­ tification of her home at moderate cost, through her newly acquired craft, and the development of a new source of income when rugs were made for sale. In almost every coun­ ty or state fair and in many commu­ nity or church bazars, hooked rugs Iuade by farm women are conspicu­ ously displayed and bring good prices. Through this means spare time is made to yield extra cash so that in addition to the rugs they make for home use the rug makers are enabled to buy other furnishings or conveni­ ences to improve their homes. Ib some states county weavers’ as­ sociations of farm women have sprung up and aid in standardizing the designs Oid patterns, and in marketing the products. Thousands of dollars have been cleared annually by such groups I HOUSEHOLD.

Commodity organizations have followed successful production and standardization work in rug making in a similar manner to what has been done in the co-operative marketing of other farm home products. “We can be cooked in so many dif­ ferent ways,” said Mrs. Potato. - “So could we,” said the Sqnash family, “if only ,people would take the trouble.” “Who is going to bother about a Squash?” asked Mr. Potato proudly. “Pm sure I don’t know why not,” said Mrs. Squash. “Oh well,” said the Carrots, “what can one expect from the Squash fam­ ily? “They’re not considered the most wonderful food in the world by any­ body, whether they are cooked one way or the other.” “And who thinks so much of the Carrots?” asked Mrs. Squash. “The rabbits,” said the Carrots haughtily. “They think more of the carrots than of anything else. “The little dears," ended the ,Car­ rots happily. “You’re qaite right, Carrots,” said the Apples. “But think of us. “We’re the ones to be thought about.” \ ” “And wily?” asked Mr. Potato. For he wanted to have all the attention himself. “Because we can be stewed, we can be baked, we can be made into pud­ dings, pies and tarts. “Potatoes can just be potatoes, that’s all.” By MARY GRAHAM BONNER t 9®e. “Weil, that’s enough,” said Mrs. Po­ tato. “Yes,” said Mr. Potato, “we can be fried or boiled or baked, and we can be stewed, too. , “What is more than anything, we can be.mashed.

The breast of lamb is one of the most tasty cuts when properly cooked and served. It is especially well flavored as it contains a large amount of extract­ ives. > Stuffed and rolled then roast­ ed it is a choice main dish. Stewed and served with' peas it is a most wholesome dish. Cover with strips of bacon, season well and add one-half cupful of wa­ ter and bake three-fourths of an hour. Served with potatoes baked with it and basted with the pan fat, one may* have a whole meal in the baking dish. Scrambled Lamb.—Cut up two cup­ fuls of leftover Iamb, ’beat four eggs and add four tablespoonfuls of milk. Mix and scramble in butter in a Iiot frying pan. - Serve with French fried potatoes piled around the lamb on a hot platter. Scotch Broth.—Cook a well cut-up lamb shank in one and one-half quarts of water. Season well with salt when the meat is first put on. Add two cupfuls ,of diced potatoes, one cupful of diced carrots, one-half cup­ ful of carrots put through the meat chopper, two onions sliced. Cook un­ til the vegetables are tender, strain and cool if the fat is to be removed, InNEGAR MADE A (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Vinegar Is not _ necessarily made from apples, althongh many of the late and windfall apples are utilized in this way. Vinegar can be made from any fruit, or, in fact, from any material which contains enough sugar and is in no way objectionable, ac­ cording to the: United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture. Vinegar of good quality can be made from oranges, persimmons, pears, various berries, honey, maple products, watermelon, and grains. Largeiquantities of some of the fruits mentioned are wasted' each year in the United States. In Bngland vinegar was first made from malt liquors, a method of dispos­ ing of ale and beer which had sotlred. Malt vinegar is still the standard in the British Isles. Here apple jnice is largely used for homemade vinegar, and cider vinegar is -considered the standard, for household purposes. AVhether it is done .on a small scale' in the. home, on a larger scale ,on the ’ farm, or on a still large-scale In the factory, the production of vinegar is the result of two distinct fermenta­ tion processes—an alcoholic fermenta­ tion followed by an acetic fermenta­ tion. Sugar is the base of vinegar production. Any watery solution of a fermentable sugar may be trans­ formed into • vinegar under favor­ able conditions. Many fruit juices are well suited to this purpose, as they contain sugar in the proper proportion and other necessary or desirable sub­ stances. Distilled or spirit vinegar made from-molasses or alcohol obtained by a by-product from the manufacture of other products,' notably compressed yeast, is nearly always colorless and. lacks the aroma and flavor of fruit vinegars. For this reason it is not commonly desired for table use, but is extensively used for pickling or pre-. serving. • Directions for making any of the above-named fruit and other vinegars will be furnished by the United States Department of Agriculture. I SECRET OF FAMOUS BISCUIT i laven’t you often wondered what was the secret of the famous “beaten biscuit” of the South? Here it is, given by the bureau of home econom­ ics. YouVwiIl notice that there is no leavening; the beating which “blis­ ters” the dough helps incorporate air into it—and that’s the secret or it may be served with the vege­ tables. Barbecued Lamb.—Cut cold roast­ ed lamb into thin slices and reneat them in a sauce made as follows: Two tablespoonfuls of butter, one half tablespoonful of vinegar, one- third cupful of currant jelly and one- fourth, teaspoonful of mustard. Mint sauce'is always good to serve with lamb. Chop one-fourth cupful of mint, add a teaspoonful of -pow­ dered sugar and pour over a table­ spoonful of boiling vinegar. Serve with the roast. There is not, as a rule, much reason to study leftovers for turkey, when the prices for the bird are so high. However, when one does not have enough at the festive board to “lick the plat­ ter dean," here are a few suggestions: Turkey Bombay.—Cut the turkey meat into half-inch pieces. Heat' an e tablespoonful o f fat, add one tablespoonfui of minced well and place in a casserole, babe 45 minutes. Remove and add to the hot mixture two beaten egg yolks and two tablespoonfuls of grated parmesan* rheese. Mix lightly, put all In a greased mold and steam 25 minutes. Unmoid and serve hot with reheated gravy. Creole Turkey.—Make a sauce using the following: Take one tablespoon­ ful of fat, add two green peppers and one medium sized onion finely chopped; cook for three minutes. Add one can of tomato soup and one table­ spoonful of flour. Season with one teaspoonful. each of salt and sugar; Vhen well blended add six small skinned mushrooms sliced, one-half teaspoonful each of chives and pars­ ley. Place a row of turkey slices overlapping each other on a flat bak­ ing dish, moisten with a little melted butter and heat thoroughly. Garnish the planter with celery and pimento strips. Roast Leg of Lamb.—Rub salt, pepper and onion all over the meat. Insert small slices of clove of gar­ lic in tfce meat, using one clove. Place in a hot oven and sear the meat on all sides. Add one-lialf cup­ ful of water. Slice two tomatoes and one onion and place around the lamb with six or eight potatoes. Roast in a hot oven, basting the vegetables often with the meat. Serve very hot with the pan gravy.' (©, 1329, Western Newspaper Union.) “Ha, ha,” chuckled Mrs. Squash, as she rolled to one side. Mr. Potato had been very rude to Mrs. Squash and she was glad to hear him being snubbed for a change. “You see,” continued the Apples, “we can be eaten for breakfast as fruit, we can be eaten for lunch as a dessert, and we can be eaten for sup­ per as a vegetable, or almost any way they plan to use us.” “Now potatoes are vegetables and nothing else. You never heard of a potato pudding, did you? Why, even Mrs. Squash can be made into a pie.” “Of course Mrs. Squash was very happy now. - And the Apples con­ tinued talking. ’ “AVhat delicious pies we make! We are the favorite pies of the world! “Think of that for a distinction! Some people like mince pie, some like pumpkin pie, others enjoy squash pie, or lemon pie, but almost every one likes apple pie. “To think of being an apple pie! It’s a wonderful thought. And we can be eaten just as we are, too! “No one could eat a raw potato) That would be too horrible!” Now just at that moment the cook came down in the cellar to pick out the winter vegetables she would want for dinner., “Well,” said she to herself, “it’s nice to get something from the hot- -house once in a while. “I get so sick of these everlasting winter vegetables and apples that we keep in the cellar. It’s nice to have a few tomatoes for a change.” Down she put a box with bright red tomatoes—just from the hot-house. “Well,” said the Vegetables, “how- do-you-do?” “AVe’re very superior,” said the To­ matoes. “And why shouldn’t you be?” asked Mr. Potato. “You have been in a hot­ house, spoiled'and petted. You’d be queer if you weren’t superior, what with sun and warmth to give you. a fine color.” But the Carrots and Potatoes felt that they really were the most im­ portant of all the winter vegetables. Do you think they were right? ((c), 1929,1Western Newspaper Union.)

Cramer, millionaire manufacturer and North Carolina’s best bet for a cabinet holder under Hoover, will carry the North Carolina vote to the electoral college and cast it for the Californian who took North Carolina from Governor Alfred E. Smith. Mr. Cramer and Dr. Cyrus W. Thompson, electors-at-large, at­ tended the meeting of theelectors today and for the first time in 56 years gave the Republican party the thrill which &oes with the cap­ ture of North Carolina’s electoral vote. Thrice since 1868 North Ca­ rolina has gone Republican in state contests. In 1894 when the state flopped to fusionism and again in 1896 the national Democracy triumphed. Conditions then were exactly reversed Sore on Senator Simmons, not then a senator but very hopeful, the state smote him and. his Democratic legions hip and thigh in 1894 and again in 1896. Recently sweet on Senator Sim­ mons and his bolting of Governor Smith the state Democracy broke and turning about 70,000 Demo­ crats over to Mr. Hoover made North Carolina Republican nation­ ally. The state, in the mind of Dr. Cy Thompson and Mr. Cramer, is normal and natural when voting Republican nationally. Hoover has crossed the Equator fifteen times, but he is better known as the man who crossed the Mason and Dixon line.—New York Even­ ing Post. Democratic spokesmen have tact­ fully stopped saying things- about prosperity now that they have to put up with it anyway.—Brooklyn Eagle. DR. R. P.

The lynching figures,for 1928 is­ sued a few days ago by the Nation­ al Association for the Advancement of .Colored People- noted that three of the nine lynchings listed were in Mississippi, more than in any oth­ er state. Why the report was is­ sued before the year ended is not known but its inaccuracy is new apparent. Before submitting an annual report on mob murders hereafter, the association ought tc mahe sure of Mississippi., Within the past few days one Mississippi-mob has-mui dered a ne gro named Emanuel McCallum and another has apparently—as" this i;- Writteti—murdered a negro, named Charles Shepherd. That will give Mississippi five uiob murders of the 11 reported. There will be no surprise at Mis­ sissippi’s position. Georgia alone excepted, Mississippi has }he black­ est mob-murder record in the coun­ try, end Georgia in recent years has done much • toward changing its attitude. If the mote recent fig ures are considered, Mississippi is without a peer. She /stands first on the roll in permitting her citi­ zens to gather in mobs for the pur* pose of murdering She nas more mob-murders than any other and she does less about it. She has a higher proportion ot citizenship content-t6 stand idly by or posi­ tively and definitely in favor of the mob method of disposing of prison­ ers than any other. She cares less for a black skin, does graver wrong to the spirit of the law and thinks morqvof .the-shotgun-,.- the' -hanging rope and the burning- stake than any other. She closes the year with a record of lynching nearly half as many negroes as all the remainder of the country put together. After a dozen men bad entered the home of McCall um, dragged him half-clad out of bed and hang­ ed him to a young pine tree five miles from Hattiesburg, a citizens’ mass meeting was held in Hatties burg under the auspices of the chamber of commerce, “ and plain talk was heard from- leading mem­ bers of the community, including several ministers.” A reward of some $2,000 was offered hy one man and city and countv authori ties were considering increasing the sum. Five hundred persons were present at that meeting. One read­ ing of it would conclude that it forecast action against the mur­ derers. But hardly had this meeting end­ ed before another mob was on top of another negro and his body is added to the grisly record. That is Mississippi.—Greensboro News. [The negro Shepherd, was burn­ ed at.,the stake, an£ Governor Bil­ bo said that no investigation of the m ob would be made at his instiga­ t io n , “ j have neither the time scr the money to investigate two thou sand people,” h6 said. This is the same Governor that stated in. a re- cint camapign speech that Herbe'. t Hoover was dancing with a negro woman in Mississippi. We judge that Bilbo must be a red-hot Al Smithocrat. O u r neighbor to the South is sorely in need- of a Gover­ nor who has the nerve and back­ bone to.suppress mob rule. Editor. J Postage stamp machines are to be fitted in .telephone “boxes.

Foster attended the funeral of Mrs. Williams at Fork last week. Miss Mary Ratledge returned to N. C. C. W., last Friday after be ing at home sick for several weeks. Misses L. W. Shutt, of Denton, Rube and Reid Thompson, of Salis­ bury were visitors in our town last week. Mr. B. R. Bailey Jr., who enter­ ed Davidson college last fall, re­ turned to his home last week on account of ill health, it is reported. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. B. Shutt are improving after being ill with flu we are glad to note. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Shutt spent Sunday evening with relatives in Smith Grove. Miss Jakie Foster, of Statesville was a Sunday visitor in Advance. The editor of The Record didn’t get.to Raleigh Friday to attend the inaugural ceremonies of Hon. ‘0. Max Gardner. We are glad to know that most of the big and lit­ tle politicians who were present re­ mained sober and in their right minds. It is hoped that none of the legislators will have to borrow inoney to pay their hotel bills while in Raleigh this winter. With the pay increased to JSio per day, some of the law- makers may be able to pay all expenses while away, and also the first payment on a new automobile when they get home. No reason why Dav>e county shouldn’t put in a bid for the big Kraft cheese factory that is going to be located somewhere in this section. No county hereabouts has finer cattle and better dairies than Davie. We believe that enough milk could be secured in this sec­ tion to keep a factory running twelve months in every year. The Lions Club, the cattle men and everybody else should get busy and see what can be done towards get­ ting such an enterprise for this county. Davie is a mighty good county— best one in North Carolina, but we were informed that during the holi­ days there were about 18 prisoners n jail, many of th“m placed there for either making or drinking liquor. Mdny there were who es­ caped the officers and managed to keep on the outside. The officers are doing what they can to stop the making and selling of >.whisky, but public sentiment has 'much to do with the liquor business. If every man who claims to be a pro' hibitionist would get behind the officers and lend their aid and moral support the liquor business would not flourish as it does. Don’t cuss the officers fpr no® enforcing the laws unless you are willing to do your part in helping them. A strong effort is going to be made by the present legislature .to pass a compulsory 8-months school iaw for North Carolina. The great majority of the people in Davie county t,re opposed to this law, be­ lieving that the farmers and others are already burdened with all the taxes .that they can pay. It stands to reason that the tax rate in this county would have to be raised should the county schools be run for eight months. Many children cannot well be spared from their wo#! duru|g-|he.;busy season on thp fartns in September and October! A go'od six months .school, with competent teachers, will accom­ plish as much as an .eight - months term with only a few hours spent each day m the school room- T h's question was .threshed out in the campaign in Davie two years ago, and the voters expressed them­ selves in a very forcible manner.

Very few pres­ ent day IiJiiie designs provide a porch. Of course there is the open terrace which is a familiar feature of tile now popular Spanish type of architecture, but it can hardly be called a porch In the older sense, nor can the per- KlTOENIlDlNINfi-W37 >10 b' j ,£.0 .xi3 3" SUNWl I . r Wictyr i; IIV IN fim I JgPorch 2 3 'O" X 11*3’ First Floor Plan. gola, which is really open above as well as at the sides. The sun parlor is excellent and has earned a place in the home design which it is entitled to hold. It can not, however, wholly take the place. of the porch. There are still many people who like a porch, and it seems quite probable that in the course of a few years there will be a swing back to porches once more. A de­ sign which protides both sun room and porch should be doubly attrac­ tive. Such a design is shown here The porch is inset at one corner of the house with the sun room directly behind it. Above there is a large Linen'®’’ HATH BED SM. IC I0'&"XI2'3" SEW-RM BED m iM C 33EDKH. I J!’3*xi2'3' 8'3"Xll’3" I X-C Second Floor Plan. do.rmer providing space for a second floor sewing room. The sweep on the roof line down over the porch creates much the effect of a story and a half house, but as a matter of fact, the main portion of the house is a full two-story structure. In addition to the rooms aready mentioned, this design includes six rooms, living room, dining room and kitchen, with adjoining breakfast nook on the first floor and three bed­ rooms and bath on the second floor, AU of these rooms are of good di­ mensions for the average family use and are compactly and conveniently arranged. The house occupies a space but 24 feet wide and 26 feet deep ex- elusive of the front and real porches. IllllllBllIiiIIllli Varied Materials Often Desirable in Walls The bouse which is finished in a combination of materials on the exte­ rior walls must be very carefully de­ signed. Too many times we see houses on which apparently little thought has been given to architectural charm and the resulting “hodge-podge” of ma­ terials leads us to wonder if certain material had run short, necessitating the substitution of something else. Everyone has heard the statement that a new house should be designed to fit the site. In crowded suburban communities the most important of these factors to be considered are the houses on either side. To cite an in­ stance. if a stucco house stands on one side of your property and a brick one on the other the natural method of tying in with these two suggests the house with brick, stucco and sid­ ing in combination. How can these be most pleasingly assembled in one house? Brick, be- ??? nwsotlrS' is the heaviest in Higlit invariably occurs at the base or the building.

A tone bouse, because of its sturdy ap- Pcuriuice, may appear cramped if- Io- -UCU on too narrow a plot Spatter Flooring Is an Effective Finish e^eciive way to decorate wide urd floors is by means of striping a harrow line of a contrasting . J alonS the joinings. The rugs do Un thls tyPe of floor> as wlth any ecorated floor,, should be solid In ron°r’ ortieP n°t to clash witb the Seneral scheme. 'V-T-'.,:-- In older bouses, where the wide board floors are In poor condition, the spatter finish is both effective and ar­ tistic. Tlie floor first of all should be cleaned with warm water and ammo­ nia, and bleached, if necessary, with a solution of oxalic crystals and water. After a crack filler has been used, or a paste wood filler if the wood is open grain, ‘ the floor receives three coats of paint. When the final coat is dry the first spatter color is applied by dipping an ordinary scrubbing brush in paint and scraping the bristles with a table knife which forces the contrasting color to spatter. The remaining spatter colors are applied in the same way, without waiting for the first to dry. If the floor has been given a flat finish, either gloss or flat paints may be used for spattering, but where the ground coat is gloss the spatter colors must be flat. This treatment results in a soft finish which is appropriate for almost any room. The application of a final coat of varnish will protect the paint and make cleaning.easier. MetalColumnsAre Suited to Home Use When architectural treatment calls for columns In the small (home, metal columns of copper-bearing, galvanized steel stand up well under strain, hav­ ing great load-bearing strength and be­ ing naturally protected by their very composition against the weather. . Made In nine styles, these columns conform -to jhe different orders of Grecian and Roman architecture. They are inexpensive and will not split, rot, warp or open at joints. Among the designs offered are the Roman Corin­ thian, Greek Ionic, modern Ionic,’. Ital­ ian Ionic and Greek Doric. The fireproof qualities of these col­ umns commend them to the home builder using a Jeffersonian Colonial house design: Ordinary bumps, blows dnd'rough treatment that would dent wood and chip stone columns beyond repair are said to have no effect- upon these sturdy pressed-steel columns. Eight, ten. twelve and fourteen-inch diameter columns are made from one- ply 22-gauge copper-bearing galvanized steel. Largpr sizes are of two-ply 22-gauge laminated steel construction C o lo n ia lT y p e Harmony well nigh reaches perfec­ tion In our Colonial architecture.

Coke’s Distmct Value in the House Furnace Soft coal can never be burned In house-heating furnaces with such com­ pleteness of combustion as coke. When soft coal is used most of the volatile matter distilled from the coal escapes from the furnace unburned in the form of soot, tar, and combustible gases. Part of the soot and tar is de­ posited on the heating surfaces of the stove or furnace and in the flues and part escapes through the chimney as visible smoke. The tar and, soot do not burn in the furnace because the furnace is usually too small and the temperature too low for maintaining their combustion. The residue left after the tar and soot have been driven from the coal is in the form of coke. It bums slowly and almost com­ pletely in the small furnace and the heat which gets into the house is most­ ly the heat that has been generated by burning this residue. Therefore, when soft coal is burned in the ordi­ nary house-heating furnace the coal is first reduced to coke by driving off the volatile matter, most of which escapes unburned; then the coke burns in the furnace and heats the house. Driving off the volatile matter unburned not only causes a direct loss of heat but causes a great deal of dirt in the fur­ nace, flues, boiler room, and also in the outside atmosphere. Since the vola­ tile matter in soft coal is of negative value so far as heating the bouse is concerned, it is better’ to use a fuel that does not contain volatile matter. Such a fuel is coke.—Bureal of Mines. I Town Honors Greeley Greeley county, on the western bor­ der of Kansas, is thoroughly Greeley- ized.

Get Pape’s Cold Compound that comes in pleasant-tasting tablets, one of which will break up a cold so quickly you’ll be astonished.—Adv. Opportunity “When we girls parade we are often annoyed by horrid men.” “I’ll join you, my dear.” Defeats, repeated, may not improve a man’s judgment: they may only make him timid. Oklahoma Girl Strong as Boy "Louise Alice was fretful, nervous and all run-down from whooping cough,” says Mrs. E. J. Kolar, 1730 West 22nd SU Oklahoma City, Okla. “The little I could force her to eat wouldn't ever digest. She became un­ derweight. sallow and weak. • Then I decided to try California Fig Syrup, ana the results surprised me. Her bowels started working im­ mediately, and in little or no time sbe was eating so she got to be a pest at the table, always asking us to pass things. Her weight increased, her col­ or improved and she began to romp and play again like other children. Now she’s the picture of health, and strong as a boy.” Pleasant-tasting, purely vegetable California Fig Syrup acts surely and quickly to cleanse your child’s stom­ ach and bowels of the souring waste that is keeping her half-sick, bilious, sallow, feverish, listless, weak and puny. But it’s more than a laxative. It tones and strengthens the stom­ ach and bowels so these organs con­ tinue to act normally, of their own accord. Over four million bottles used a year shows its popularity. Ask for it by the full name, “California Fig Syrup,” so you’ll get the genuine, en­ dorsed by physicians for 50 years. Eat Oysters to Music For the first time in the history of the famous annual opening of the oyster season at Gloucester, England, the bivalves were swallowed to music this season. To encourage the guest to do so rhythmically, the mayor of Gloucester invited many distinguished musicians, including Sir Edward El­ gar, Sir Henry Wood and Sir Hugh Allen, director of the Royal College of Music. A special train took guests, among them being the duke of Marl­ borough, Lord Birkenhead, the lord mayor of London, and Signor Marconi, to the rose-decked tables. The inno­ vation was a success and will be tried again next year. So Runs’ the World Away Ancient Cry—Hire a hall! Modern—Hire a mike!—Cincinnati Enquirer.

CHAPTER IV— C ontinued "Our families must have been real set on throwing us together," he ob­ served. "I was cut off without a dime myself—unless I spent two full years oD tlie Three Bar.” Slie was angry, with herself for be­ lieving him sincere, for being con­ vinced that he, too, as be had several times intimated, was tied in much the tame fashion as herself. The explana­ tion came to her in an illuminating flash. The elder Harris must have nursed a lifelong enmity against her father, who had believed him the most devoted friend on earth. She had oftec beard the tale of how her parent bad, in. all friendli­ ness, followed old Bill Harris step by step from Dodge City to the Platte, to old Fort Baramie and finally to the present Three Bar range, Perhaps the one so followed bad felt that Cal Warren was but the bated symbol of the whole clan of squatters who bad driven him from place to place and eventually forced him to relinquish his hope of seeing the Three Bar brand on a hundred thousand cows'; that bis friendliness had been simu­ lated, his vindictiveness nursed and finally consummated by leaving his af­ fairs in such fashion that bis son must carry on the work bis trickery had begun. Harris resumed where he bad bro­ken off. “And Pd have tossed it off, as I told- yon once, if the Three Bar girl bad turned out to bo any except you. lou've had a tough problem to work out. girl,” be said. “I sold out my lit­ tle Box L outfit for more than it was wortti—and figured to stop the leak at the Three Bar and put the old brand on its feet” His calm assurance on this point exasperated the girl. “How?” she demanded. “What can you do?” She pointed toward the-six men near the wagon. “During the time you spent prowling the hills did you erer come across those men?” “Hot to pal round with them,” he confessed. “But I did cut their trail now and then. They’re not the outfit that’s going to be hardest to' handle When the time arrives.” ,,Mtffllat you mean?” she. asked. No one has ever been able to handle I them up to date.” !t ever striAe you as queer I at Slade could come into this coun­ ty twelve years back, with nothing a t roPe an<i a running iron, sad be owning thirty thousand head today?" He has tlie knack to protect his own and increase,” she said. “They’re ofraid of Slade." The girl shook her head impatlent- t and looked across at the six men who ate her fare. Aooh at them,” she flared. “Hating My food; and In a few nights they’ll , hazing a bunch of Three Bar steers toward the Idaho line. Why doesn’t some man that is a man kill that al­ bino fiend and all his whelps and rid the country of bis breed? Even Slade lots them put up at his place.” ‘if they’re pestering yon I’ll or them eff” he said. "And what effect would that have?” she inquired scornfully. The effect of causing them to climb '' borses and amble, off down the country,” he returned. He sprawled on tho grass, his head propped on one !mod as he regarded them. t^len probably you’d better order them off," she suggested. ' “You have ny permission. Now’s your chance to J ogocri the lordly brag of helping tiie Tliree Bar. out of the hole.” She instantly regretted having said it A O7.on times of late she had wondered w she were turning bitter and ’ wasp­ ish. if she would ever again be the even-tempered Billie Warren with a good word, and a smile tor every one- Harrtg was, as always, apparently order undisturbed- by her words.' Far down the bottoms she could see a point of light which she knew for a white sign that read:- “Squatter, don’t let sun­ down find_ you here.” The man be­ fore her had defied these sinister warnings scattered about the range .and publicly announced that, he would put in hay on his filing, kribwing that he was a marked man from the hour he turned the first furrow. Whatever his shortcomings, lack of courage was not one of them. 41 take that back,” she said, re­ ferring to her words of a few moments before. Harris straightened to a sit­ ting position in his surprise at this impulsive retraction, and as he smiled across at her she divined that this man, seemingly so impervious to her sarcasm, could be easily moved by a single kind word. “Thanks. Billie,” he said. “That was real white of you.” He rose and sauntered toward the wagon and Billie Warren felt a sud­ den clutch of fear as he baited be­ fore-Harper and she'realized that he had taken her words literally and in­ tended ordering them off. “I’ve been made temporary foreman of the Three Bar—just so the boss could try me out on that job for an hour or two,” he remarked conversa­ tionally. “So I’m putting In a new rule that goes into effect right off. When yon boys ride away, in a few minutes from now, you can tell folks that the grub line is closed as far as the Three Bar is concerned.” Lang took a balf-step toward him, his face reflecting his gathering rage as his slow brain comprehended the They Ascended the First Slopes. fact that this speech was but another way of announcing that he and his men would find no welcome at the Three Bar from that moment on. Harper caught his arm and jerked him back. The albino was an old hand and could rightly read the signs. “The gentleman was remarking to me,” he said to Lang; “not you.” He turned to Harris. “There’s no law to make you feed any man,” be said. “From now on we’ll pay our way—as far as the Three Bar is concerned.” His tones were casual; only his pale eyes, fastened unblinkingly on Harris’ face, betrayed his real feeling toward the man who, notwithstanding the roundabout nature of bis announce­ ment, bad practically ordered him to stay away from tbe Three Bar for ail time.- “But even In the face of that,” he re- snmecl, “we’ll welcome you any time you happen to ride down our way.” Every man within earshot under­ stood the threat that lay beneath the casual words. “Then I’ll likely drop in some time,” Harris said. 4Tf you’ll send word where it is. And I’ll bring fifty men along." \ Tbe albino motioned his men to­ ward their'horses and they mounted and rode off down the bottoms. Har­ ris walked back and resumed bis seat near the girl, who sat looking at him as if sbe could not believe what she had just witnessed.' “You see it was just as easy as Ttl counted on,” he said. “It’ll, be a con­ siderable saving on food.” “But .how did you . know?” she asked. “Wby is Harper afraid of yon?” “He’s not,” Harris said. “Not for a single second. But he’s an old band and has left a few places on the jump .before be came out here." 44And be thinks you know it!” she guessed.“He don’t care what I know; it’s what be knows himself—that the wild bunch is always roosting on‘the pow­ der can even when it appears like they’re sittiBg pretty—that counts with him. You thought I was taking a fool chance of outgaming him. in reality I was taking almost an unfair advantage -of him, providing he had the brains he must possess to have lived to bis age.”She could find no ready-made an­ swer to this'surprising statement. “Don’t you know that the albino will kill you for thatr she aske/i. Copyright by H al G. Bvarts Not unless he can stage it as a per­ sonal quarrel,” he said. "He’ll uever follow it up as coming oiit of what happened today by taking it out on me ■ as temporary foreman of the Three Bar—for ordering him off. There’s a good majority of folks that don’t relish seeing Harper’s bunch ride up—that feed them through pol­ icy. But whenever you make it plain to a man that he’s compelled’ to do a thing whether he likes it or not it’s ten to one he’ll balk out of sheer hu­ man pride. If Harper bills the Three Bar foreman on the grounds that he , refused to feed all his men—why then, right off, every foreman and owner within a hundred miles starts to resenting the possibility that may­ be the albino feels the same way to­ ward him. Harper knows that.” “But if your theory bad been wrong?” she persisted. 44What then?" 44Then," he said, “;hen there’d have been h—I and repeat. I wasn’t just acting as me, a personal affair, but, as I took ,pains to remark aloud, as the foreman of the Three Bar. Ev­ ery Three Bar man would have gone into action the" second Harper made a move at me. You know that— and Harper knew it.” t. She realized the soundness of this statement. The one unalterable code of the country, a code that had been fostered till it eclipsed all others, de­ creed that a man should be loyal to the brand for which he rode. The whole fabric of the cow business was based on that one-point. “But now they’ll work their devil­ try all the stronger against the Three Bar,” she predicted. “They could wreck us if they tried. You couldn’t get a conviction in five years. Not a man would testify against one of Har­ per’s outfit.” 4Then we’ll put on a fighting crew and hold them off,” he said. 44But that’s not the layout that will be hard­ est to handle In the long run. Slade is the one real bard nut for the Three Bar to crack. He can work it a dozen different ways and you couldn’t prove one of them on him to save your soul. He’s one smooth hombre—Slade.” Harris rose and headed for his bed roll and the girl sought the shelter of her teepee for a rest. Her mind was busily going over the events of the day. She reflected that Cal Har­ ris was at least possessed of self-con­ fidence and that procrastinationv was certainly not to be numbered among his failings. It came to her that his interests for the. present were iden­ tical with her own. As half-owner in the Three Bar it would be as much to his advantage as to her own to build it up. ..Waddle’s warped legs prevented his acting as foreman on the job and it might be that the oth­ er man would find some way to pre­ vent the leak that was sapping the life from the Three Bear. ,His half­ ownership 'entitled him to the' place. Billie Warren loved her brand and her personal distrust of Harris was submerged in the hepe that his shar­ ing the full responsibility with herself might be a step toward putting it back on the old-time plane of prosperity. She fell asleep with the crooning voice of the nighthawk drifting to her ears. It seemed but a few fleeting mo­ ments before Waddle’s voice roused her. “Boil out!” he bawled. “Feet In the trough I” There was instant activity, the jin­ gle of belts and spurs and in five minutes every man was fully clothed and splashing at tbe creek. It was showing rose and gray in . the east when the meal was finished. When most of the men were mounted Billie urged Papoose aver near Harris’ horse. 44Do you know bow to throw a cir­ cle?” she asked.“After a fashion,’’ he said. “I’ve bossed one or two in the past” . “Then we’d better be of,” she -Sug­ gested. “Since you’re the Three Bar foreman its for you to say when. “I only pre-empted that job for ten minutes or'so,” he explained with evi­ dent embarrassment 44You surely didn’t think I was trying to boost my­ self into the foreman’s job for keeps?” “No,” she said. '4But you’re haif- owner—and you can handle men. Fm giving you free rein to show what you can do.”Harris straightened in his saddle and motioned to, the men. •‘Let’s go!" be ordered, and headed his horse for tbe left-hand flank of the valley. They ascended the first slopes, picked a long ridge and followed it to the crest of the low divide between that valley and the next. As they reached the bead of the first draw that led back down into the valley Harris waved an arm. . 44Carp," he called, and a middle-aged man named Carpenter, abbreviated tp Carp, wheeled his horse from tbe group and'headed down the draw. A half-mile farther on they reached the bead- of another gulch. “Hanson!” the hew foreman called, and the, man who repped for the Half­ moon D dropped put. One man was detailed to work each draw and when ,some five miles up tbe divide, there were b u t half the crew'left. The fore­ man led the way to the opposite.di­ vide and doubled back, sending a man down every gulch. (TO BE CONTINfJEI?.). • . Improved Uniform International LessonT (By REV. P. B.

Tife Savior Predicted (Gen. 3:15; 18.9:6,7)., In connection with the fall of man and the pronouncement of judgment upon the woman, man and the serpent, and the announcement of the undying en­ mity which was to exist between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent, ultimate victory was pre­ dicted of the woman’s seed. This enmity has continued all through the ages, even to the present time. On the cross of Calvary the final strobe was made which crushed his head (John 12:31; Heb. 2:14; I John 3:8). This announcement concerning the Con­ quering One was the first gleam of the glorious gospel of Christ. A great victory was won, but at an infinite cost. The prediction of the Savior be­ came more specific in Isaiah 9:6, 7. The eternal Son of God was “given" Io the world, but He was “born” as a child. II. The Savior Born (Luke 2:11 30, 32). That which had been predicted was historically fulfilled in the birth of Jesus Christ at Bethlehem. When Jesus was brought into the temple as a child, the Holy Ghost revealed to Simeon that this was the Messiah. He took the child Jesus in his arms and blessed God, declaring that he had now with his eyes seen God’s salva­ tion and that He was to be a light to lighten the Gentiles and was to be the glory of Israel. This appearance of the Savior was heralded to the shep­ herds by the angels as they ascribed to. God the highest glory and an­ nounced peace on earth and good will to men. III. The Savior Described. 1. He seeks the lost (Luke 15:3-7). This seeking of the lost is illus­ trated by the man leaving the ninety and nine sheep and going after tbe one which was lost, and his rejoicing over his success in finding it 2. He died for the lost (John 3:14-17). As the brazen serpent was lifted up in the wilderness by Moses, so Jesus Christ was lifted up on the cross. God gave Jesus Christ to die, to make an atonement for the sins of the world. AU those who believe on Him receive eternal life and therefore escape con­ demnation. Christ’s coming into the world was not to condemn the world, but to bring to it salvation. 3. He knows His own (John 10:14). As the Good Shepherd who seeks out the lost and gives His life for them, He has a definite knowledge of each one of them. Not only does He know them personally, but they in turn know Him. 4. He beeps His own (John 10:- 27-29). Believers are Christ’s sheep and be­ cause they are His sheep they bear His voice and follow Him. He not only gives unto them eternal life but holds them in His • omnipotent hands. They are absolutely secure because no man is able to pluck them out of His hands. IV. Some Blessings Received Through the Savior. ■ L Physical strength (Acts 3:1-11). The healing of the lame man at the beautiful gate of the temple is a fine example of Christ’s ability to heal the body. This man bad been lame from birth. Because the life of Jesus Christ was brought into touch with him, he was able ""immediately to arise— strength came into bis feet and ankle bones. Not only did he arise, but he walked and leaped, praising'God. 2. Justification (Bom. 5:1-11). The one who receives Jesus Christ is declared righteous. His guilt is re­ moved, and because be is justified, he has peace with God, the assurance that God loves him, and real joy in God Himself. 3. Christ is the Supreme Bxample to the believer (Phil. 2:5-10). ’ Because the. Savior became Incor­ porated with the race through the in­ carnation, He is able to impart life to those with whom He is identified. Furthermore, because He- thus im­ parts life, the believer is able to make Him an example. He is able to ex­ press the same spirit of devotion and humility in giving himself in service instead of being served. Spend Time With God . It is the failure to spend a definite, even though it be short, time each day with God that is the secret of all weakness, variableness, and shallow­ ness in our spiritual experience and service. 1 M an Alone Able to Thinh Of all God’s creatures man alone is able to.think immortality.

Get a H e Box at Tovr DraggIstrS ^ r g i i i g n g M Dallas, Texas--Bailroad develop­ ment in Texas has kept step In re­ cent years with the state’s march of progress in an agricultural and min­ eral way, yet so vast has been a last frontier of southwestern border coun­ ties that eight still await the steel rails that will bring to the region a fast and uninterrupted transportation it has never known. The group where the automobile and pinto pony are still the only means of conveyance embrace an area fifteen times as large as Rhode Island, but the population in this undeveloped section is only one-seventh of that of Providence.So great are distances from some of the cattle ranches that it is neces­ sary to drive stock more than eighty miles to a railroad for shipment to packing houses or the feed lots of the corn belt.Although much of the region still is largely in a pastoral state, due to the scarcity of rainfall and ownership of land in tracts too large for develop­ ment, it is the center of the country’s best wool and mohair area and the breeding ground for thousands of cattle each year. Oil resources have been developed in Crane county only, but land prices and bank deposits have risen rapidly since the World war. Live stock values in Crockett coun­ ty exceed those of any other county in Texas, and Edward county, one of the group, leads the country in the number of goats raised annually. - Transportation companies have watched with interest this domain and plans have been discussed for an ex­ tension that will connect at least four counties—Mason, Kimble, Sutton and Crockett—with the outside world. A road also has been proposed for Ed­ wards county, but for several years GIassock, Crane and Bandera prob­ ably will not witness what would be the novel sight of a locomotive rum­ bling across the region. Electricity Now Runs World’s 'Oldest Clock Rouen, France.—The world’s oldest clock, built in 13S9, today ticks by electricity. Not only does electricity run the clock, but it also rings Rouen’s his­ toric curfew, “Cache Ribaud,” which was instituted by William the Con­ queror and which for nearly eight cen­ turies has sounded at nine o’clock each night the warning to ail to re­ turn to their homes and put out their lights. For even the Rouen clock could not operate forever on its old machinery. The bulky wheels and weights rrfn tba clock for more than 500 years before they recently collapsed under the strain and appealed for help. So an expert in electrical clocks was called in. He tore out the antiquated works and substituted a small, black box. This box now not only operates the clock, but also rings the curfew. The clock has only one hand—never has had another. But the great cop­ per dial bears minute graduations and the machinery causes the chimes to strike every 15 minutes, as well as on the hour. Attributes Long Life to Horizontal Position Vienna.—A certain Dr. Julius Ticli- wehr who recently died here at the age of one hundred nine, often de­ clared that the secret of his longevity consisted in taking a horizontal po­ sition as often as possible during the day, and naturally, every night. Whenever it was possible through­ out the day, he would place his head in the direction of the North pole and the remainder of his body parallel to the meridian line. The doctor affirmed that this posi­ tion coresponded to the direction of the magnetic current running through the surface of the earth and thus per­ mitted a kind of mnghetism of the iron mass contained in the body. Connecticut Churches Tax Exempt 200 Years Hartford, Conn.—The system of freeing religious bodies from taxation has rounded out two centuries in Con­ necticut and is beginning a third. Church of*England churches in the Connecticut colony were granted ex­ emption for taxation in 1727. A few years later the Baptists and Quakers also, were exempted. It is now 220 years since provision was made for dissenters from the es­ tablished church. The general court in 1708 granted permission foi\ the Presbyterian system of church gov­ ernment to"be used by churches that dissented from the Church of Eng­ land.

New York.—A chain of. aviatioq., schools, with fields and instructors In strategically located cities in all parts of the country, is one of the major developments in American aerial progress to be expected in 1929. according to Amelia Earhart, first woman to fly the Atlantic, and now aviation editor of Cosmopolitan. The schools, which will offer com­ plete courses in flying to sportsmen and women as well as those training for commercial flying, will be spon­ sored by one of the principal com­ panies now operating commercial air lines, she says. Tuition Has Dropped. Tlie price of learning to handle a plane already has dropped to an av­ erage of $250 in the established fly­ ing schools, as a result of the in­ creased interest in flying among peo­ ple in all walks of life and the de­ velopment of a large body of com­ petent instructors within the past two years, Miss Earhart finds, sur­ veying the rapid changes in aviation in the current issue of the magazine. At the end of the World war no air training could be obtained for less than $1,000, but recently the fee has twice been cut in- half. Today the • cost is hardly more than the fee of a first-class dancing instructor, since the $250' covers 10 to 12 hours of actual flying, spread oyer 20 to 25 lessons. Urges U. S. Inspection. Miss Earhart, however, warns pros­ pective amateur flyers against the “barnstorming" flying instructor and the poorly equipped and inefficiently operated school. “There are excellent flying schools and excellent private instructors in the country, but it still is difficult to distinguish the good from the bad,” says her Cosmopolitan article.^ “It is the opinion of many flyers that the Department of Commerce should make a classification similar to that of the American Medical association, which gives its approval after inspection to hospitals which maintain certain standards. Given time, flying schools will acquire reputations, but it might be easier for students if there were a published rating now. One distin­ guishing mark, however, is already available. You can be sure the planes used are licensed by the Department of Commerce. And be sure that they are inspected frequently. “The student also should 'have a physical examination, paying special attention to the eyesight, by a De-, partment of Commerce physician.” Double-Time Tractors Add to Farm Profits Washington. — By working their tractors night and day during the “peak” seasons thousands of farmers are getting double the value out of their machinery and, economists say, leading toward the restoration of profits in agriculture. The idea developed on the Pacific coast, where 23-hour days for one tractor and two operators have been common for years. This year agri­ cultural engineers have seen the prac­ tice spread to the grain belts of the Middle West, where both the seeding and harvesting seasons, have been speeded. Under the glare of convenient spot­ lights tractors roar through the night, bringing their work year up from 2,000 to 5,000 hours. The average American tractor work year of 400 hours has been multiplied so fre­ quently that it ho longer is remark­ able. * . In the Imperial valley of California, where cantaloupes and head lettuce are grown so efficiently, the big track- laying tractors run for months on ca-- pacity hour schedules in spite of 120- degree temperatures, clouds of dust and desert winds. Chile Bars Girls Sitting Next to Bus Drivers Iquique1 Chile.—To curb one-armed driving, authorities here prohibit any woman passenger in Iquique’s motor buses from riding next to the driver. Seats are arranged so that passengers sit with the chauffeur, but any wom­ an taking the place next to him must move before the bus starts or the driver will be fined. The official ex­ planation was that girls “distracted the operators’ attention.” DeityinKnickers Resented at Theater Frankfurt-Am-Main, Germany. —Public'objection to represen­ tation of 'the Deityon the, stage took a drastic form at the Mu­ nicipal theater recently when a production of Walter Hasenelev- er’s comedy, “Mariages Are Made in Heaven,” provoked a bombardment of. vile-smelling bombs and tear-gas grenades. The company finished the play to an empty house. Police ejected several disturbers. This caused free-for-all fighting in the street outside. The play, In which the Deity was represented as wearing golf clothes and knickerbockers, had previously caused a scandal In Berlin. Hamburg and other Ger­ man cities. PREHISTORIC MEN CREMATED DEAD Scientists Unearth Bone Ashes in New Mexico. Minneapolis, Minn.—Evidence that prehistoric dwellers on the North American continent were the first of mankind to cremate the dead has been unearthed by an expedition of tte Minneapolis Institute of Arts. The evidence is based chiefly upon a crumbly material found in the sands of the Mimbres valley in New Mexico, thought to have been pulverized'com, which an analysis showed was bone ash. The Culture of the Mimbres valley is believed to have flourished 2,000 years ago. Objects and materials found cer­ tainly are the first evidence of crema­ tion in that valley, and possibly any­ where, says Dr. Albert E. Jenks, lead­ er of the expedition. Doctor ,Jenks believes Mimbres culture ceased to exist about 600 or 700’A. D. Near Hurley, N. M., tha searchers unearthed a village of 150 rooms, or huts. Some yielded sitting, or ful1- length skeletons with bowls over their heads. But in one was found a jar of an unrecognized material. “We tasted it,” said Doctor Jenks. “One member of the party declared it was pulverized blue corn, common in that vicinity.” Laboratory tests re­ vealed it to be bone ash. Another find deemed important was a copper bell, use of which previously had not been known. A bracelet of 13 shells was found on the arm of the skeleton of a female. • , There were fireplaces and wall btse3 of adobe and stone. Some tuts were constructed of wood. The culture, according to anthro­ pologists, disappeared when Mimbres villages were destroyed, although how they were destroyed has not been learned. So far as is known the cul­ ture never took root elsewhere. Gusher Brings Fortune to Motherless Children Sunnydale, Kan.—Oil, renowned fot its gifts of sudden wealth, is spout­ ing in a new Klondike near this south­ ern Kansas village, bringing riches to Willard Goodrich, hard-working farm­ er, and his two motherless children. The discovery well In the new pro­ ducing territory is on the Goodrich farm. With a daily output of 7,000 barrels, it is the biggest gusher Kan­ sas has seen in ten years. It “came in” without warning, drenching the surrounding fields in oil. A pool of “black gold” four to five feet deep and covering an acre of ground was formed as neighboring farmers; with teams hurriedly con­ structed ditches and dirt dams. Th.e SO-acre farm on which the well is located was left to the family by the mother when she died, 11 years ago. Goodrich has an eighteen-year- old daughter, Arlene, and a fifteen- year-old son. Dale. HUNTFORSLAYER HALTED BY WINTER America Leads World in Making Timepieces New York.—Watches and clocks produced in the United States this year, will have a value in ex'cess of $80,000,000, almost equal to the com­ bined output of Switzerland and Ger­ many, the closest competitors. Production of timepieces in this country, jewelers say, has more than doubled in the last ten years. After meeting its own domestic demand, the United States last year exported watches and clocks to the value of 4 per cent of -the total output, an in­ crease of 6 per cent over the previous year. Chaucer Manuscript ' Brings $1,350 at Sale London.--A treatise on the Astro­ labe by Chaucer, offered at a tliree- day sale of old books and manu­ scripts, held at Sotheby’s recently, at­ tracted wide attention from collectors. This rare manuscript of Chaucer’s only scientific work formed part of the library of Sir Hercules Read and was sold for $1,350. The Astrolabe was an instrument used by ancient astrologers and scien­ tists, by the former for showing .the position of the stars. A laskanM urderer Evades Pur­ suit Nine Years. Nome, Alaska.—Winter has halted search for the Indian Klu-Tok, who, government officers-declare, has mur­ dered more than a- score of persons during his nine-year reign of terror over the upper Nushagak- river valley, in southwestern'Alaska. For nine years the Indian has played a lone hand, ruling supreme over “his territory.” For nine years he has Ovaded arrest. During that time trappers of the region who have attempted to capture him have either mysteri'odsly disappeared or have been found dead. Finally, In desperation, the trap­ pers sent an appeal to federal authori­ ties. The Indian must be caught or white men would be. forced to leave the district, they said. Murdercharges were sworn out against Kln-Tok, and a federal posse was sent in search of him late last summer. Before he could be found, however, the early winter of the North inter­ fered. The search has been post­ poned until next spring. Klu-Tok, who is thirty-five years old, is said to have begun his “reign” shortly after his squaw was billed by an unknown white man, who fled the country. Officials say the death of his wife left the Indian crazed with de­ sire for revenge. The first two murders laid to “The Man of the Mountain,” as he is called, were in 1919. Two natives were killed then. He Is said to have made the threat that two more would be billed, “all the same as moose.” ■ From that time on trappers and prospectors have entered the district only with extreme care, and several who “invaded” the region never re­ turned. Once KIn-Tok was captured, but he escaped within a few hours. In Sep­ tember, 1927, three trappers surprised him as he prowled about their tent. He was held one night. The next day two of the trappers left the tent to take supplies to their trapping ground. The third trapper was left to guard the Indian. Four hours later the pair returned to find their companion dead and the Indian gone. She Kissed LaFayette; Dies in. France, Aged 105 Meinn, France.—Mme.

As a schoolgirl she gave a bouquet to LaFayette, and was kissed by him as be marched with his soldiers to 'Paris when the Orleans dynasty was restored in 1830. By a coincidence her death occurred on the anniversary of George Washington’s death. Team Work Columbia, Miss--An unusual ro­ mance collapsed here recently when two brothers, married to two sisters, were granted, divorces on grounds of infidelity on the same, date by the same judge.

Jenkins was rescued at daylight one morning after he had been suspended fourteen hours. ■ Young Jenkins was in the top of a GO-foot tree gathering chestnuts. The fabulous price of chestnuts—$18 per bushel—had caused him to risk his life for them. - The branches of the tree extended part way over Cedar Run. In some way he misSed his foot­ ing, darting down through the limbs. After a fail of 20 feet he lodged 40 feet from the ground. With Iiis right' leg fractured he dared not attempt to climb down the tree. He began calling for help, contin­ uing intermittently throughout the night When daylight came Jenkins was almost ready to release his hold, taking his chances of escaping death by falling on a pile of rocks, when his last call was heard by Asa Nichols, passing several hundred yards away. Nichols improvised a ladder of grape vines, down’ which he carried the injured man, finally landing him on the ground. Besides his right leg being broken Jenkins is suffering from internal injuries.

This far-sighted step was taken because Chevrolet engineers knew that the six-cylinder motor is in­ herently the most perfect­ ly balanc'd m otor—the ideal power plant to meet th e grow ing public de­ m and for greater reserve pow er, faster get-away and, above all—smooth, quiet performance. During the last four years, over a hundred six-cylin­ der motors were built by Chevrolet engineers and tested on the General Motors Proving Ground. 1 Day and night, through winter’s cold and sum­ m er’s heat, the incessant testing went o n ^u n til the present motor was de­ veloped and'finally pro­ nounced correct. At the same time other C h e v ro le t e n g in e e rs w ere p erfectin g o th e r parts of the chassis. And another great automotive organisation—the Fisher Body C orporation—was devoting its gigantic re­ sources to the creation of the finest, sturdiest and most beautiful bodies ever offered on a low-priced automobile. As a result, the Outstand­ ing Chevrolet offers an order of well-balanced ex­ cellence—a combination of performance, comfort, beauty and handling ease that is truly rem arkable ,—w ith a fuel-economy of better than 20 miles to the ■gallon of gasoline.

An Alarming Condition. It is positively brutal the way people are being killed and maimed in North Carolina by automobiles It is said, that seventy seven peo pie were killed in the.Stale during November and there is no telling how many were hurt more or less seriously. Bad as saloons were w, do not believe that In their palmiest days they ever took as manv lives in this State as the cars and trucks are killing. We have had a law for many years prohibiting the sale ol liquor and yet the automobile menace is practically unregulated There are some laws of course but they are more conspicous for their, observance. Nobody stops at a railroad crossing, unless a train is in sight, and sometimes not then, nobody observes the speed law. ‘ Cars with one light or none ply the highways, unlighted carts and 1 wagons travel about, children drive cars, others who are no more com­ petent than children drive them. It is useless to pass any more Jaws tho. Unless some m^ans of en­ forcing the laws we now have is provided, there is nothing ,Io be done except to let the killing con­ tinue.—Graham Messenger. In all the noise that is being made for tax reduction nobody has suggested that tax reduction might be secured by collecting all the taxes that can be collected. It’has oeen demonstrated that 99.95 per cent of the taxes can be collected, or near that, if areal effort is made. Instead of demanding full collec­ tions concessions are asked for many and releases are made with­ out law or reason. —Ex..

Safety, silence and simplicity are features of the new Ford six-brake system ONE of the first things you will notice when yon drive the new Ford is the quick, effective, silent action of its six-brake system. This system gives yon die highest degree of safety and reliability because the four- wheel service brakes and the separate emergency or park­ ing brakes are all of the mechanical, internal ex­ panding type, with braking surfaces fully enclosed for protection against mud, water, sand, etc. .The many advantages of this type of braking system have long been recognized. They are brought to you in the new Ford through a series of mechanical im­ provem ents embodying much that is new in design and manufacture. A particu­ larly unique feature Is the simple way by which a' spe* cial druipi has lieen con­ structed'to permit the use of' two sets, of internal brakes on the rear wheels. A further improvement in braking performance! is effected by the self-center* ing feature of the four- wheel . brakes — an exclusive Ford de- velopmenfThrougli this construction, the entire surface of the shoe is brought in steady, uniform contact with the drum the Instant you press your foot on the brake pedal. This prevents screeching and howling and makes the Ford brakes unusually silent in operation. Another feature of the Ford brakes is the ease of adjustment. , The four-wheel brakes are adjusted by turning a screw conveniently located on the outside .of each brake plate.- This screw is so notched that all four brakes can be set alike simply by listening to the “clicks.” The emergency or park* ing brakes, on the new Ford require IitUe attention.

HaveKidneys Examined By Your Doctor Tslte Salts to Wash Kidneys if Back Pains You or Bladder Bothers Flush your kidneys by drinking a Quart of water, each day, also take salts occasionally, says a noted au­ thority, who tells us that too much rich food forms acids which almost paralyze the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They be­ come sluggish and weaken; then you may suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. To help neutralize these irritating acids, to help cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body’s urinous waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful m a glass of water before breakfast for a few days, and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with Iithia, and has been used for years to help flush ana stimulate sluggish kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system ro they no longer irritate, thus often relieving- bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in­ jure and makes a delightful efferves- rent lithia-water drink. ‘ Iceland to Have Railroad There are no railroads in Iceland. -'11IIy, however, a Norwegian com­ pany contracted to build a railroad from Reykjavik, the ’capital, to Tho- Jorsaa, a distance of 50 miles.

O IL S T R IK E H E L P S U N F O R T U N A T E O N E S Blows Suffered In Past Are Now Forgotten. Wichita, Kan.—Blows which they have suffered In. the past are being forgotten by Willard Goodrich of this city and his two motherless children as fortune repays them for their pa’ tience and perseverance. An oil well has come In on their 80-acre farm, which was left them by the wife and mother, who died 11 years'ago. The flow of black gold assures the family comfort and ease for the rest of their lives. Willard Goodrich is known for unflagging devotion to his little family. Mr. Goodrich rented his inherited farm. He preferred to farm his own land. He stayed with his double job throughout the years, rearing the chil­ dren, Arlene, eighteen, and Dale, fif­ teen. The father cooked the meals, did the family washing, sent the chil­ dren to school, and provided the in­ come to maintain the home. Sitting In his comfortable home, Mr. Goodrich said oil had aroused no dreams in his mind. “I have no particular plans,” he de­ clared. “I don’t know whether i’ll move anywhere or not I don’t know what it would be like to live more than a mile from home. Of course. I’m glad we struck oil; it means a lot, especially to a fellow with children.” Baluchi Women Fare 111 in Divorce Cases Peshawar, India.—Divorce used to be an easy matter in Baluchistan, the little-known state whidD lies just over the northwest frontier and to the south of Afghanistan. All a Baluchi had to do was to ap­ pear before the local court or “Jirga,” composed of a committee of respected elders, and state that his wife was un­ faithful. He would at once be grant­ ed a divorce, wliicli, incidentally, gave him the lawful right to kill her. it was argued that any\ man who submits to the indignity of acknowl­ edging his w’ife’s unfaithfulness must have true cause. No opportunity was offered the woman to state her case. Now there are changes. Westerni­ zation of the East, so strongiy sup­ ported by King Amanullab of Afghan­ istan, has crept south, and Baluchis are grumbling that the uew divorce laws are not nearly so satisfactory as the old. According to the present system, the woman is allowed to give evi­ dence in her own defense. Even so, the. odds are against her. The “Jirga” is composed of men. and is all-powerful in Baluchistan. Therl is no redress from faulty verdicts. The accused, when found guilty, has to pay the penalty prescribed and summary justice is meted out. Effort to Increase •' Strawberry Profits Washington.—To determine the ma­ jor factors which affect the returns to growers the Department of. Agricul­ ture is to study the strawberry in­ dustry in regard to price ranges, com­ position of market supply, weather conditions dnd competition of other fruits. Economic' information already has been gathered in North Carolina, Vir­ ginia, Tennessee, Kentucky and Flor­ ida. Similar work will be undertaken in New Jersey, Delaware, LouiSiana and Arkansas. Maryland State College of Agriculture is independently insti­ tuting a similar survey in that state. Factors of particular interest which it is expected this study will disclose are the place of strawberries in the organization of the farm; the seasonal movement from different areas, the variation in time and period of move­ ment, the tendency to overcrowd par­ ticular markets and methods of mar­ keting and transportation. Modern Hotels in Paris Have American Names Paris.—A feature of many of the modern style hotels which are spring­ ing up all over Paris is the American nomenclature given them. !‘Hotel des Etats-Uni’s,” the “New York”; “Wash­ ington” and such like are becoming more and more familiar.

CITY HIT BY SERIES OF UNUSUAL CRIMES Omaha Visited by TIiree Strange Criminal Types. , Omaha, Neb.—Three 'strange crim- Inal 'types—two of them, killers, the: other a kidnaper with a madman’s method—have visited upon Omaha during the last six years a series of particularly frightful crimes. Just now it is the “hatchet man,” who killed five persons. Three years before him it'was “the sniper,” and in 1922 it was the “chain man”—kill­ er, kidnaper and bad man. The sniper, Frank Cfarter, went to the electric chair last year. The chain man, Fred Brown, was shot dead in 1925 during a riot at the state penitentiary where he was serving a life sentence for kidnaping. To the final moments of his life “the sniper” was a strange mixture of braggadocio and fearlessness. Many said he was crazy.- He was a puzzle to psychologists. His "craving for publicity.” as M. Andreasen of the state prison welfare society put it. “was such as to make him try any­ thing to get into tlie papers.” Boasted on Way to Chair. Even as he walked to the chair, the sniper jeered and boasted. “They say I killed three,” he said as the slow tread of his death march counted off his remaining moments of life. “Three? Why, I have killed 42!” The Villesca (Iowa) ax murders, one of the most revolting chapters of Iowa criminal records, were among the crimes which the sniper paraded as his own work. Carter operated during the early hours of evening, whereas the hatch­ et man chose that time of night just before dawn, During the fortnight that Carter was abroad in Omaha, claiming three lives with his silencer equipped pistol, fear of his marks­ manship kept many persons off the streets during the evening hours. The specific crime for which Carter was convicted was the slaying of an Omaha physician. Fred Brown, the “chain man,” came to Omaha trailed by a crime record which included a conviction for a murder committed when he was six­ teen years old. He was free on parole from a life sentence imposed upon him for that crime. Women Kept Chained. Two yopng women were Brown’s victims here. He kidnaped and trans­ ported them to a shack at the edge of the city. There they were kept chained while he went about other crimes, including the plundering- of Omaha homes. . A man, finding the women chained in the shack, set about freeing them, but was himself overpowered by Brown and placed in irons. This man later escaped, and Brown fled. He was captured shortly afterward and sentenced to life imprisonment, Of this trial of abnormal crimes only the hatchet slayings remain un­ solved' and the guilty person or per­ sons unpunished. Three of the hatchet victims—an aged drayman, a young mother and her sister—were beaten to deatb as they slept China Grants Widows Right to Remarry Peking.—Young widows are being encouraged to marry again by the au­ thorities. In the old days, when the Son of Heaven sat on his dragon throne, widows were rewarded for their vows of celibacy by seeing their names in stone tablets sanctioned by the em­ peror. That is entirely too old-fash­ ioned to suit the young Chinese of today.Superstitious acts of filial piety, in the hope of curing the sickness of a parent, will not earn the commenda­ tion of the Nationalist regime, such practices being classed as unworthy along with the jjncient custom by which young widows refused to re­ marry. -Neither will the acts of a girl de­ clining to marry after the death of her fiance be regarded as commend­ able virtue, all of which has been set forth in a draft of regulations gov­ erning awards and official commenda­ tion of meritorious services submitted to the Nationalist government coun­ cil by the ministry of the interior. _Plg Fells Apples Winsted, Conn.—J.

Need More Room New York.—So 'many people have been dabbling In the market that the stock exchange has bought two build­ ings to provide for expansion. London.—Trial flights of the R-100, the gigantic airship now being con­ structed under the auspices of the British air ministry for the purpose of flying the Atlantic, will not be made until March,-1929, according to information, given at the headquarters of Commander C. D. Burney, who will lead the expedition. Although Commander Burney has been pushing his plans with all pos­ sible speed, there have been several delays as the result of manufacturers requiring extra time to supply parts for the mammoth air liner. It is pointed out. however, that the predic­ tion of trial flights by March is a con­ servative one and that it is possible the intervening period will be cut down. Meanwltile considerable speculation reigns as to who will comprise the passenger list of the ship on its great flight from England to Canada and thence to New York. While the Brit­ ish air ministry nominally is in charge of the flight, it is known that Com­ mander Burney will be permitted to select practically the entire crew, as well as determine who will be carried as passengers in addition to the air ministry’s representatives. Itequests for permission to accom­ pany the commander on his flight have been pouring in from all parts of Europe as well as America, hut it is declared that no final selections have as yet been made. G ain s in W e ig h t A fte r E scap in g W ife ’s K n ife Kansas City, Mo,—Following dis­ closures that lie Iiad gained 40 pounds in weight since he had stopped run­ ning from a butcher knife wielded by his wife, as well as since having left her board, Harry Mitchell, ,a negro, was granted a divorce in- the Inde­ pendence division of the Circuit court by. Judge Willard P. Hall. Mitchell and his wife lived at 1610 Brooklyn avanue. Mrs, Mitchell threatened him with a knife, Mitchelt said. “But were you always good to her?” inquired Judge Hall. “Yes, sir,” Mitchell replied, “I al­ ways was on time for meals and al­ ways kept the house warm In winter. But I lost weight eating her food.” Mitchell said his wife’s weight was 185 pounds and his 145, while they lived together. Big Parade of Steamboats Is Planned on Ohio River Pittsburgh.—A steamboat parade on the Ohio river, headed by President- Elect Herbert Hoover, is planned for September, 1929, to celebrate comple­ tion of all locks and dams on the stream. Capt Oscar Barrett, president of the Ohio Valley Improvement associ­ ation, says he already has invited Mr. Hoover and that he has received his tentative acceptance.

Denotes Conceeled Evil “There is something rotten in Den­ mark,” is said of a concealed evil. Thousands of persons use this saying continually without having the least suspicion as to its source. It is based on a passage In Shakespeare’s "Ham­ let.” In the fourth scene of the first act of that play Marcellas; an officer of the watch, says to Hamlet’s friend Horatio: “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.” The remark was made after Hamlet followed the ghost of his father from the platform be­ fore the castle.

When the last rider appeared with [ Ms buuch and threw it into the herd f Earris signaled all hands to change I ip turn ts, Half the men repaired to the rope corral and caught up cow horses while the balance of the crew held the herd, each one relieving some other as soon as be had saddled a fresh horse. A sagebrush fire was burning fifty yards above the wagon and each man rode past it, leaned from his saddle and dropped his running iron in the flame. Hie men worked ronnd the edge of the bunch and slipped a noose on every calf that was thrown to the edge of the constantly shifting mass. Morrow roped the first calf and dragged it to the fire. As much as she loved the round-up, many times as she had seen it, Billie Warren had never become calloused to Ihe brutalities perpetrated on the calves. She withdrew and sat in the shade of the wagon. She was down­ wind and the dnst raised by the trampling hoofs floated down to her, OiBgled with the odor of steaming cows, the acrid smoke of the sage fire and the taint of scorched hair and lesh, In a short space of time the herd had been worked, the last calf brand­ ed. and Harris led the men up the Bottoms, Five miles up the valley, at the spot where he had crossed it a < I1Ours before, they found the wagon waiting at the new stand, the corral refashioned and the renrada in­ ti Jt* 11 was but ten o’clock but ie first circle had commenced at I ”ur' ® noon meal on the round-up as served whenever the first circle was completed.

They’re riding for his brand.” The-girl nodded. That unalterable code again—the religion of being Ioyai to one’s brand. Not one of Slade’s men would balk at doing it knowing­ ly; each would do anything to ad­ vance his interests as long as he drew his pay from Slade. As they talked Harris detailed men for each draw but when they reached the point where they were due to drop' down and cross the valley he pulled up his horse. “You take the rest of the circle, Carp,” be instructed Carpenter. “I’m going to ride off up the rise a piece.” The girl regarded him curiously. No less than three times in the last week he had stopped midway Of the circle and asked her to complete it. Now he had turned it over to Carp and he signaled her to remain with him. “Where are we going’” she asked as she watched the men ride down toward the bottoms. “And why?” “Back the way we came,” he said. “And maybe I can show you why.” He beaded back the divide they had just followed until he came to the saddle at the heaC of a draw that led down to the valley. Far below them they could see a rider hazing a bunch of cows out into the bottoms. High on the rigbt-hand slope of the gulch lay a notch, a little blind basin watered by the seepage from a side- hill spring, and there on the green bed of it a dozen cows with their calves grazed undisturbed. For per­ haps five minutes Harris lolled side- wise in the saddle and watched them. Then a rider appeared on the ridge that divided that draw from the next, dropped in below the cows end head­ ed them back over the ridge into the draw from which be had appeared. Even at that distance she recognized this last man as Lanky Evans. Har­ ris resumed his way down the divide and she-knew that he had discovered some irregularity for which he had been seeking. “Who was the man that overlooked those cows?” she asked. “Who worked that draw?” “Morrow,” he said. “His eyesight i is getting bad. That’s the second time this week—and the last.” “Then Morrow is an inside man for Harper," she said. “Drawing Three Bar pay and working against us, too.” “Yes,” he said. “Only he’s an in­ side man for Slade.” “But how could his leaving those calves behind benefit Slade?” she de­ manded. “How could it benefit Harper?” he countered^ “Can you tell me that?” She could not and motioned for him to go on.“None of Harper’s men has a brand of his own,” he said. “They’re living on the move. They can't wait for calves to grow up. The way they work is to run a bunch of beef steers across into Idaho. They’ll pick up another bunch there and shove them across the Dtah line and repeat by moving a drove of some Utah brand up in here. Only beef steers—quick turning stuff. Yon know about the reputation of the O V and the Lazy H Four.” . She knew all too well. There was a half-feud, a smoldering distrust dis­ p lay ed between cowmen on each side of the three state lines, a triangle of ill feeling. It was current rumor that the O V and the Lazy H Four, rang­ ing far southwest of the Three Bar, would traffic in any steers that came from across either the Utah or Idaho line. In the corner of those states were similar outfits that were receiv­ ing stations for rustled stock from tbs opposite sides. The triangular feud had been fostered to a point where the thieves were immune. Even if a direct complaint should be brought against them they had but to ride across into another state and a sheriff following them would be helpless, the inhabitants resenting this Intrusion into their affairs by an officer from RECORD. MOCKSVILLE. N. C. another state, truly having no right there, and refusing ‘to aid him even if they did not actually oppose bis passage. “But how would it benefit Slade?” she repeated. “Why, suppose that Morrow over- looked a nice bunch of Three Bar calves all along this first strip next to Slade’s range,” Harris said. “Then some Slade rider happens to Srop along after our wagon has moved on and he hazes them off south. Later another picks tbenr up and shovfes them along another half-day’s drive— way beyond where our boys ever-work, even beyond the strip covered by Slade’s north wagon, the only on« that carries a Three'Bar rep; what then?” "The calves would still be with mothers wearing the TbreeBar mark,” she said. “After they leave the cows they’re slicks, fair game for the first man that puts his rope on them—and Slade wouldn't risk running one of his own brands on them before they left the cows." “Not one of his’ own, no,” Harris said; “only one that’s going to be his later on. Did it ever strike you as queer that Slade, whose way Is to crush every new outfit, should suffer a soft-hearted streak every year or so and befriend some part? that had elected to start up for himself right in the middle of Slade’s range? And later buy him out? That’s the way he came into nearly every brand he runs. Several of those dinky little owners have moved out right sudden with a dozen riders from some other outfit fanning along close behind; McArthur didn’t even get moved, for Brandons went on the war trail be­ fore he had time to start. But it transpired that he was all set- to go because SIade showed bill of sale for Mac’s holdings, dated only the day before. That’s how he came to own every one of those braDds that match up so close with those of every outfit that overlaps his range.” They bad turned their horses down a long ridge that led to the wagon in the bottoms. “I’ll mention to the boys that Mor­ row sold out the interests of the Three Bar while he was drawing down your pay. They’ll pass sentence on him right sudden. Four hours from now they’ll have dry-gulched him so far from nowhere that even the coy­ otes can’t find him.” “Not f&atr” she said. “Turn him over to the shttW Yon caught him in the act” “In the act of mlssin® a few cows on his detail. The sheriff would hold him almost an hour before he let him go.” “Then give him his check and send him off the Three Bar range,” she said. Harris waited till the herd had been worked and the men had gath­ ered round the wagon. Then he handed Morrow a check. “Here’s your time,” he said. YotS can be leaving almost any time now.” Every man knew that Morrow bad been caught at some piece of work contrary to the interests of the Three Bur. The discharged band gam » short ugly laugh. “As soon as you pussyfooted tato the foreman’s job I knew it was Orty a question of time,” he said. “Exactly,” Harris returned. your sti^E.” “A foreman lias a, scattetag «i a dozen or so men to back up,” Morrow observed with a shrug ftf. one shoulder toward the rest of tift ^aien. Harris turned to the girl. "I resign for about sixty SecdfrrB," he said and swung back toward Kw- row; and again all hands noted Kls queer quartering stand. ‘Tm not fore­ man right at this minute,” he said “So if you had anything in particular to address to me in a personal vein you can start now. Otherwise you’d better be packing your stuff.” Morrow turned bis back and beaded for the rope corral. When he had saddled one horse and packed his ef­ fects on another-he turned to Evana “You helped frame this on me,” he said, “! thought I saw you messing over into my detail a few days back. One day right soon I’ll run across you again." “Then I’ll take to riding with my head over my shoulder—surveying my back-track,” Lanky promised. “Be­ cause we’ll most likely meet from be­ hind.”Morrow started to snarl an answer, his usual, self-repression deserting him, but Harris waved an impatient hand.“Drag it!” he snapped. “Get mov­ ing. If I had my own way we’d lead jour horse out from under you—nntl we will if I ever hear of your turning up on the Three Bar range again.” (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Personality is here implied by the use of the personal pronoun. In the original Scriptures personal pronouns are used uniformly in speaking of the Spirit Then, too, He is called the Comforter. The word “comforter” lit­ erally means one called to stand by the side of another as a helper, coun­ sellor and guide. While Jesus so­ journed in the world He was such to His disciples.' He assured them that upon His withdrawal the Holy Spirit would take His place as friend, helper and counsellor. The personality of the Spirit is also proved by the fact that He performs acts only possible to per­ sons. In John 14:26 He performs the function of a teacher. He not only teaches, but He speaks as a person, giving direction to the disciples as in Acts 8:29 and 13:2. His personality is again proved by the fact that men act toward Him as they could act only toward a person. In Isaiah 63:10 the prophet declared that men vexed the Holy Spirit. It would be manifestly improper to speak of vexing an influ­ ence; only a person can be vexed. In Matthew 12:31 Jesus speaks of men blaspheming against the Holy Spirit It would be impossible to blaspheme against an influence. In Ephesians 4:30 Paul speaks of grieving the Spirit Again, It would be manifestly improper to speak of grieving an influence. Further, in I Corinthians 12:11 Paul speaks of the Holy Spirit exercising the function of will. One of the es­ sential characteristics of personality Is that of volition. The Holy Spirit is represented as divine. He has the attributes of deity. In Psalm 139:7-9 He is declared to be omnipresent; in I Corinthians 2:9-11 omniscient He also performs the works of God. He is the creator and renewer (Pb. 104:30). He is called God in Acts -5:3-4, and H Corinthians 3:18. II. How Believers are Related to the Holy Spirit They are regenerated by Him (John 3:5-8); they are in­ dwelt by Him (I Cor. .6:19 Gal. 4:6). He also fills (Eph. 5:18 and Acts 4:31). To be filled with the Holy Spirit is the duty of every believer. No one has the right to perform any work for Christ without this filling .(Luke 24:48,49; Acts 1:8). Even the temporalities of the church should be in the hands of Spirit-filled men (Acts 6:1-3). III. What the Holy Spirit Doea (John 16:8-11). 1. Convicts the world of sin (v. 8). The one awful sin of the world is unbelief. The Holy Spirit convicts the people of the world of their error con­ cerning sin and shows their guilt be­ fore God. 2. He convicts the world of right­ eousness (v. 10). The resurrection and ascension of Christ prove that He is the Bighteous One, and that righteousness is only possible as He is accepted as Savior. 3. He conyinces the world of judg­ ment To be convinced of the reality of judgment is the crying. need of the world today. Sln unatoned for shall be punished. The sinner who refuses the righteousness which God provided In Jesus Christ also shall be judged. 4. The Spirit mortifies the deeds of the flesh (Rom. 8:12, 13). The only way to get the victory over our carnal natnres is to give the place of rulership to the Holy Spirit 5. He leads the believer (v. 14). The Spirit-filled believer lives the life of the Son of God. 6. He gives assurance to the be­ liever (Rom. 8:15-17). The Holy Spirit witnesses together with the human Spirit to the reality of the new birth. 7. He enables the believer to pray according to the will of God (Bom. 8:26,27). While the believer does not know how to pray as he ought the Holj Spirit helpeth his infirmity. All prayer which the Holy Spirit Indites the Heavenly Father, answers. Partner of the Lord Every young man and woman should be a Junior partner with the Lord Jesus for the salvation of, the world.—Jacob Chamberlain. ARuinedDay The whole day may be ruined by ai impatient word, a prejudiced judg­ ment, a hasty decision, a fit of ungov- emed temper.—J. C, Massee. All Prayers Not Answered I have lived long enough to thank God that all my prayers were not answered.—Jean Ingelow. : Battle Won by Prayer Wliy talk so much? The battle Ir won by prayer.—J, W. Lee.

Th© writer, however, admits that there are some athletic activities that are dangerous. “Rowing, especially in four-mile races,” he writes, “Is held up as the most dangerous of all con­ tests in its after effects, and the quar­ ter and, half-mile runs are deemed the most dangerous In track athletics. The terrific strain upon the respira­ tory system In these contests Is dan­ gerous except to perfectly prepared men, and they sometimes result in permanent heart Injuries.” Will Cold Worry YoaThisWinter?

The slight peppery flavor of water­ cress gives an unusually good flavor to ,stuffing for shoulder of lamb; or if you like mint with your lamb, you can try putting it into stuffing instead of sauce or jelly.A shoulder of lamb has tender de­ licious meat, but ordinarily is rather hard to carve because of the shoulder blade and other bones. The butcher will remove these for you so that tije meat may be cut very easily. The pocket left by taking out the shoulder blade can then be filled with :iny pre­ ferred stuffing.

She had eaten something which had disagreed with her and she felt a very bad pain. The keeper gave her some medicine in her food and before long she felt quite well again. “It is horrid to feel ill,” she thought to herself. And surely every one would have agreed with that thought could they have heard it. . She was so thankful to the keeper for making her well, but Io and be­ hold, only the day after she was cured Mr. Deer felt most uncomfortable. “You must have eaten the same thing I did,” said Mother Deer. “It was something that was thrown In my yard by a passerby.” .“Yes, and perhaps It took me longer to feel ill than it did you,” said Mr. Deer. “Too bad you’re not all over it now as I am,” said Mother Deer. “It hurts me so to get down on my knees, which I do now when it’s time to eat. II B y M A R Y G R A H A M B O N N E R | By that the beeper meant, that something had gone into Ihe hoofs“It’s most uncomfortable for me to wait, too," said Mr. Deer. “Now,” said the keeper, “this deer I Poor Mr. Deer. is really much more poorly than Mrs. Doe was. “It will take him a longer time to get all well for his hoofs have be­ come very much Infected.” Art m By JULIA BOTTOMLEY I ZteTatU Detail & V1C--V D e td tla A fascinating and fashion­ able art, Italian trapunta (cord­ ed quilting), is going the rounds. It is really a process of tufting und quilting combined. Just the iort of work one loves to pick up in leisure moments. Bags done in Italian trapunta or tnfting, which is a more fa­ miliar way ot putting it, of taf­ feta or velvet are very exclus­ ive and elegant In appearance. Sven the amateur needlewoman, neep ■ running stitch is used and all one has have no hesitancy in undertaking to I to do as far as the. sewing is concerned nraKfi *h*se bags, for only the simplest | is to follow the stamped design Perhaps those of soft supple taffeta are the most satisfactory and one can get them already stamped at almost every fancywork department. Other materials needed are a ball of eider­ down wool, a paper of tapestry needles, a spool of black sewing silk and a metal or tortoise-shell frame, also silk for lining. ' With a sharp needle threaded with buttonhole silk sew along the stamped lines of the entire pattern, stitching through both'muslin and silk. The design Is printed on the muslin so one works from the back. Use a very fine running stitch (see Fig. I). When the entire pattern has been stitched, then thread a blunt tapestry needle with double eiderdown wool. Begin at center of design to insert needle through th<j muslin between the two stitched lines (see Fig. 2). Pull the wool through short section or what might be described as end of the de­ sign—at least to point where stitch­ ing starts off at a different angle or direction. Pull needle out through muslin (see Fig. 3), drawing wool through, Cut off wool, leaving about one-half inch protruding at each end. The wool is thus run between the mus­ lin and the silk, raising it in corded effect. Insert needle again- close to where you cut off and continue as be­ fore. After design is all tufted, cut off protruding ends of wool close to worked design.- ' In preparing for mounting, sew the two outside seams together as far as two indicated notches on the pattern. Cut a piece of silk for lining the same size- of the bag. -Cut away the wad­ ding from, the bag when.necessary to keep it from being clumsy where it is to fce sewed into the-frame across the top and part way down the sides. Sew the sides in first and then, the top. Finally sew in the lining. . If a silk handle is used cut-strip; of silk, which is stamped , on. bottom of eacli pattern. . (©, 192?. Western Newspaper UhIonY - which had poisoned them a little. “It’s perfectly natural,” continued the keeper, “for the wart hog to kneel when he eats, but it’s too bad when a deer does it because it’s so painful. “I shall have to look after you, poor Mr. Deer.” So the keeper examined the deer and found that his joints were swol­ len and his hoofs in quite a bad con­ dition. He had been feeling poorly for some time, but he had been a brave animat and had made no fuss about it. He had really been feeling pains when Mrs. Doe was ill, but he wanted her to receive all the attention. Mrs. Poe certainly wouldn’t ' have talked about herself so much if she had known how much more Mr. Deer was really suffering. So every day the keeper dressed Mr. Deer’s feet with clean gauze and some nice soothing ointment. He had to iimp about/ with his bandaged hoofs for several weeks, but after a time,he began to grow better. “You’ve had a bad time of it, in­ deed,’’.said the beeper on the last day he considered Mr. Deer needed to wear his bandages. “And you’ve been a good, patient, fine deer. Yes, a very patient deer.1’ Mr. Deer knew from .the keeper’s voice that he was pleased, and it made "Mr. Deer very happy. from 3 to 4 pounds. Have the butcher remove all the' bones and the fell. Save the bones for making sonp. A lamb shoulder may be stuffed and either -left flat or rolled. The flat shoulder is easier to sew up than the rolled, and the pocket holds twice as much stuffing. Either of these com­ pletely boned stuffed shoulders can be carved straight through in attrac­ tive slices of part meat and part stuff­ ing. Wipe the meat with a damp doth. Sprinkle the inside of the pocket with salt and pepper, pile in the hot stuff­ ing lightly, and sew the edges togeth­ er. Rub salt and pepper, and flour over the outside. If the shoulder has only a very thin fat covering, lay several strips of bacon over the top. Maee the roast on a rack in an open pan with­ out water. Sear for 30 minutes in a hot oven (480 degrees Fahrenheit). If bacon is laid over'the roast, shorten the time of searing so as to avoid overbrowning. Reduce the tempera­ ture of the oven to 300 degrees Fah­ renheit, and cook the meat at this temperature until tender. From 2% to 3 hours will be required to cook a medium-sized stuffed shoulder at these oven temperatures. Serve hot, with brown gravy. For mint or watercress stuffing you will need. 3 cupfuls fine dry bread­ crumbs, Vz cupful fresh mint leaves or I % cupfuls finely cut watercress leaves and stems, 6 tablespoonfuls butter, 3 tablespoonfuls chopped cel­ ery, 1% tablespoonfuls chopped onion. % teaspoonful salt, % teaspoonfui pepper. Melt one-half the butter in a skillet and add the onion and celery. Cook for 2 minutes and add the mint leaves or the finely cut cress and other seasonings. Push the mixture to one side of the skillet and in the empty part melt the remaining butter and stir in the bread crumbs. When they have absorbed the butter, mix all the ingredients together. When using watercress allow the liquid which cooks out. to evaporate before the but­ tered chimbs are added. ' : For he was grateful Indeed to the kind keeper who .had made him well and who had been so good to him and so gentle with his poor sore hoofs. Mr. Deer licked the keeper’s hands and his great big brown eyes looked straight Into the keeper’s eyes, and he said, in deer talk: “Thank you, dear keeper, thank you I” _ 1929, W esternNewspaper Union.)

In general this indury has not shared in the nation-wide ecouotn it . prosperi t y which the United States ise xperiencmg and there are '.four main reasons- why this is true. “ The-first of these is a malad­ justment in-production” says Dr G. W;. Forster,.-agricultural ecomo- mist. at State College. “ Farmers for various reasons, have not been able to adjust their production to market demands in such a way as to obtain satisfactory returns. Then, too, our market • system is cnmbersone and inflexible to such an extent that it is practically use less in periods of economic distress Third, the credit mechanism is not being engineered either by private or -governmental agencies in -a fashion that will be of most benefit to farmers. Fourth, railway rates and taxes are important factors. Railway rates are seldom adjusted to correspond to the price move ment of farm .produce and when the price of agricultural products are low, freight rates take an un­ usually large percent of the in come. Tax rates either remain; constant or are increased There is no attempt to adjust taxes to the income power of the farmer.” Dr. Forstefsays that maladjust­ ment^As practically always the prm- one last week.

Some times land, land, labor, fertilizer is not used to best advantage and some men are encouraged to ex pand production by using the sub­ marginal land that had best remain in timber or be allowed to stand idle. Dr. Foster sees the need of more economic surveys to be made over the State similar to the one which he helped to make for the State Tax Commissipn recently. The sale of anto tags was chang­ ed from the fiscal year to the chair eudar year because it was figured the farmers did not have any money on July 1st. Now it has been dis­ covered that owing to the inroads niade by Santa Claus on the-family J purse, nobody has any money ,on1 January 1st,—Elkin Tribune, . North Carolina Election Methods In Texas. Some North Carolina Democra­ tic election officials must have been sent to Texas to help hold the re cent election in a certain congres­ sional district or perhaps they have read how such things were done here and attempted to do likewise. For several years Harry M. Wurzbach, Republican, has repre sented the i4th| Texas district in Congress and the past campaign the Democrats of that district of the “Hold Granville and save Ma­ jor Stedman ”, brand decided that they would beat him by fair means or foul and as a result Augustus J. McClosky, the Democratic candi­ date was given the certificate, al­ though there was much evidence of fraud. McClosky and some of bis' hench­ men have, been indicted and it is al most certain that he will be denied his seat in the hew Congress- when it convenes. Just a few days ago another er­ ror was discovered in one of the counties which, when corrected gave Wurzbach a majority. One of the judges had given’ McClosky 725 majority when it should have been Credited, to Wurzbach. <■ Doesnlt this sound astonishingly like North Carolinai But in this State the election board is all power­ ful and are ndt allowed to go be­ hind the returns even to correct ah acknowledged error. —Es. • Getting Ahead. Theother day’a. man said: .‘‘I don’t seem to be getting1 along in the world as fast as I ‘should. I am barely holding my own and I have come to the age when I should be looking out for£ the future. . It makes me fel sorTUf panicky -when I think about it.”' : . y It is quite,-usifaiUor a mam.of ;35 or qo.to tiutfk-oLhimself as getting old and to grow panicky at ,.he. idea. It is around That age tha^: he begins to fret if he has not mad<| a success, and does not see where he is going'-to make a success. He begins to cast up accounts find out if he is getting ahead in-the world. Getting ahead.in .the world, no matter how old you are, consists of gaining knowledge! If you, are doing that, you are getting, ahead. If you know more tliis year -!than you knew last year you. have gone ahead. Perhaps not financially-^ perhaps thei time for your financial, advancement has riot 'Come. !' It. is not for many men until after they are 40 or 45 and often’IatCr., Advancement in !any ’direction depends on knowledge. ; If there is a man above you he is there be cause he knows more than you del Just remember that. TheTefore, jf you want to get ^hout where you are now,, you must know more than -you know now. “ ti A Every man should give* a Gd- tain amount of time to his- intellec tual advancement, to broaden him­ self, and to make himsfelt more a Chjq^life more,- :an.(F.; pe :Tiiore-eu-,r -,-- joyable, and abetter citizen. When it comes to getting on in this world, it is necessary to know those things that have to do with making the. wheels go round. If a man has a profession he should study unceasingly the prin­ ciples and methods of that profes­ sion. If he has a business he should study unceasingly the prin­ ciples and methods of that business. If he has a job he should study un­ ceasingly the principles and me­ thods of his employer’s business. He should learn not only every­ thing possible pertaining to his par­ ticular part of business, but his aim should De to get an intelligent con­ ception of the business as a whole. That is the attitude that makes for the presidency of an organization. So, if you want to know wheth­ er you are getting ahead in the world, regardless of the relation of your present pay check to last year’s pay check, ask yourself if yon know more this year about your business, the world in general, and about the higher things of life. If you do, then you are get­ ting ahead and need not fret about the the future. It will take care of itself.—Lincoln Times. Want Newspapers To ‘‘Knock” Onlytheuewspaper men know how often the papers are asked to “roast” some individual or’’organi­ zation—including the city, county and. State administrations, as well as various societies. However, not one of those desiring such criticisms will consent to have his or her name attached to the “roast.” They wish the editor or members of his staff to assume entire responsibility. The writer recalls that on a nura ber of occasions he has been im portuned by citizens to perform one of these “knocking acts.”- When told that the paper would give! space to the criticism desired if the party would sign bis or her name to it, the suggestion or request was promptly withdrawn. “I could not afford to do that,” frequently was the answer given by the paity de­ clining to assume the authorship of the ’’roast.” ■ ' ■ If the average newspaper was to do all that is asked of it by these people, it would be a growling, snarling thing—and it would ac­ complish nothing. It should be remembered that the average newspaper is always ready t\> oppose wrongs and to fight for the right—to demand practical reforms, to support every ‘move­ ment that is for the betterment of the community, and to aid in every worthy cause. Such newspapers are not afraid of making enemies Wheji.; Jhey,: knpvv ,.t^ey^are^right:, But the truth'is that most of the demands that the paper “jump in wilh.both feet and demand action” are generally, based upon selfish motives and are usuahy urged by themselves are unwilling to do ex­ actly what they request the news­ paper to do. And it might be added that in: a large majority of instances these people stand in the back ground and refuse co-operation when the newspaper does try to get something worth while accomplish ed.—Exchange.

The Old-Time Panic Gone There does not seem to be any danger of another old-time panic such as the country underwent in 1893 under the Cleveland JDemo- panics -said that ' Henry' Eord re* cently remarked: “It has been a long time since we had a panic.” He might have added that it will be longer before we have another of the kind that earned the name iu the old days before banking was organized and made elastic under the Federal Reserve system. TheiFederal Reserve is, of course, no guarantee aguinst the ups and downs of industry and trade, a- gainst tightness, of money or a- gainst sprees of speculation. The Reserve System is no cure-all, no wonder-worker. As for specula­ tion, however, the events of the past few days in Wall Street afford another confirmation of the truth that the laws of financial gravity have hot le;n superseded: what goes too high will eventually come down.The Reserve banks can and do give a stability to credit and the controlled suDply of cunencv which is the fundamental of freedom from the old-stvle\panics. Not 13 Months. Of course no progress ever is made unless we try to, idvert the old order, but what good excuse is there for making tliiiteen months in a year that Julius Caesar said should have twelve? Not you under­ stand, that wea partisan of Caesar’s but we have got along so comfor­ tably tinder his calendar system for so many centuries that we hesitate to experiment. Also there appear to be excellent reasons against the proposal, chief of which is that bills will come due too often by reason of their being too many firsts of the month. Also, supporting you are a renter, that means you must-pay rent, or more, thirteen times in a year instead of twelve. That is not so good. And it would, of course, speed up this credit business a good deal. It would mean that the tenth of the month was shoved a little closer to the first of the month. But speaking from the stand­ point of those who prefer to adhere to old customs, old manners, and are perfectly content with twelve instead of the proposed speeded-up thirteen months of the year, we are only against the suggested innova­ tion, but wliat is much more im­ portant. a-gin it. It’s hard enough to pay bills 12 months a year—if at all.—Ex. • Office Second Floor-front New Sanford Building Office Phone 110 Residence Phone 30. Mocksville. N. C. Do you want $5 in gold?

Editor Rivers of the Watauga Democrat who is alleged to have been elected to the Legislature from that county in November is in Raleigh boasting that Novem ber, 1928, was the first election held in Watauga in 38 years where the Democrats made a clean sweep by electing every officer. And how was done? By a rotten election law placed over the pleope, an elec­ tion in which the Republicans bad no show and every election official was a Democrat.

OsCar W. Underwood Dies. Washington, Jan 25.—Oscar W. Underwood, of Alabama, one. of the notable political leaders of his time, died today at Woodlawn, his country home in nearby Virginia where he had retired at the end of public career which had seen his name repeatedly brought forward for the presidential nomination of the Democratic party. ifeeath came’ at 11:15 o’clock this morning in the massive brick structure overlooking the Potomac river and the George ^Washington shrine at Mount Vernon. The for­ mer senator had been unconscious for two days and his dealh had been expected since. His family, however, withheld notice of his condition until the last, hopeful that he could rally. Grovei Craven spent a few: days last week with friends in Asheville Deputy Administrator Osteen' liquor v^ithin the past two mgntbs was also in the chase. With Os teen and Trexler was another agent. J. F. Ratledge." According to dis­ patch from North Wilkesboro, the chase over five miles of the Boone Tiail highway aiid then down No. 26 from Brooks Cross roads for 25 miles is described as one of the most spectacular ever witnessed in the northern-western pari of the state. Lippard, 30 years old and a driver, was under the steering wheel of a new super-six of expen sive make and the three federal men were in a master six touring car, which fell into their hands a few days ago. The newness of Lippard’s car, which heated easily and likely caused the valves to stick, proved fatal for him. Before be had driven ten miles at a road eating pace, a stream of. sparks being emitted by' the exhaust pipe. Only twice, upon two short curves, did the pur­ suers lose sight of the super-six sedan, only to gain upon it in the next few minutes in each instance. Lippard stated that his speedo­ meter hovered around the 80 mark on the long stretch ot No. 26, but the glare of the headlights on the following car held along steadily even at that gait. Reaching Highway 90 which comes from Mocksville and inter­ sects Highway 26 about eight miles north of Statesville, he decided to try a ruse by turning sharply and starting toward Mocksville. The ruse failed. Before he could get his heavily laden vehicle steadied upon the new course, the agents car was upon him. He abandoned his own car and took to the fields afoot. Dry Agent Fred Ratledge, long of leg and spare of build, took after Lippard. A companion that Lippard had along with him made good his es­ cape. Ratledge ran Lippard across fields, through briar thickets and woods for a distance of a mile and a half before he caught him. By that time he had completely lost his sense of direction, but with the aid of the bright moonlight he had kept close-track of Lippard and after catching him was content to take his time about getting back to the car. Ratledge’s face was severelv scratched and bloodstained from contact with bushes and briars Pistol shots were fired by the officer at intervals and finally he heard an swering shots. The foot race and the slow walk back, the officer and his prisoner being too exhausted to hurry, consumed the better part of an hour and a half but when tney returned Deputy Administrator Os­ teen and Agent Trexler had al­ ready checked the heavily laden super-six. It contained twenty five gallon tin cans filled with liquor, some of it described as of good quality. The three agents poured the 100 gallons into a small creek .upon the Boone Trail as they made their way back to North Wilkes boro with their prisoner, Lippard was first sighted just east of Pea Ridge. The officers immediately started in pursuit and Lippard increased his pace. He turned into Highway 26 at Brooks Crooks roads and the officers’ car skidded around the sharp corner there with Trexler at the whee and the speedometer showing 50, kept right on after him. People living along the highway who had not re­ tired at that . hour, about 8:45- o’clock, saw the- stream of sparks issuing from the exhaust pipe of the . big sedan and knew another Bootlegger was trying to escape the toils ot the law. On the long stretch of No. 26 gina! Gaither, James , Gaither, min­ ors. Mrs. Kent J.

CHAPTER V —9-7 / Billie Warren rode with Harris on (he last lap of the circle. There were SM two men remaining with them. "lloore!” Harris called, and the man turned his horse down the head Cf a draw that would lead him out Into the bottoms a'trifle less than a mile above the wagon. Harris heard t shrill whistle behind him and turned sidewise in the saddle to look IiMk1 saw that Moore had regained Ihe ridge and was signaling. They turned and rode back to him. “There’s another,” Moore said, pointing down the gulch. "It’s get- Iiug 10 be a habit.” A dead cow lay on a little flat a hundred yards below. Por three con- tecutive days some rider had found a fresh-killed Tliree Bar cow. Every tnimtil had been shot ‘TH look this one over myself,” Harris decided. “There’s only two more gulches to work. Each one of roil boys take one.” The girl followed him as he turned down ihe lirst steep ditch. They pulled up their horses and sat look­ ing at the cow. a trickle of blood aozed out of a hole between her eyes. Harris rode in a circle round the spot. “He downed her from some point ftbove,” he said. “Not a sign any­ where close at hand.” He surveyed the ridges that flanked either-side of the draw and the IitUe saddle-like de­ pression at the head of it from which they had just descended.. From be­ yond this gap came the shrill nicker of a horse, the sound chopped short as if a man bad clamped his hand on' thp animal’s nostrils to silence it Hatris turned swiftly to the girL 'Tt’s a plant,” he said. "Ride— hatd!” He suited his action to the words and -jumped his horse ofit down the bottoms. He waved her over to one Bide. “Keep well away from me!” he or- TOd' "’rtiey doc>t want you.”They hung their spurs into their nioants and the horses plunged down the steeply-pitching bottoms, vaulting Eafie chimps and bounding along the tow trails that threaded the brush, wo hundred yards below the cow the draw made an elbow bend. The Sm rouOded it and as Harris fol- 'Ojyed a jump behind be felt a fug at the eantle of his saddle and the thin, sharp crack of a nae readied him. The gulch made a eIersc Oend and as they swept Mound it Harris swung sidewise In Jhe saddle and looked back. They were entirely sheltered from any Mint on the divide six hundred yards ooiiiud them. He pulled bis horse to a swinging trot and they rode down the sloping meadow that led straight to Uic main valley. "tt’e didn’t get started any too ooon,” Harris said. “His horse wasn’t 'nore than a hundred feet beyond the Jiofch when he blew off and warned s—not time for me' to get .cached uml drop him as he topped the ridge.” Xhe girl’s eyes suddenly riveted on * Sniall round bole In the eantle of his Kiddle where the hall had entered. •On tlie inside and far to the left ex­ tremity of the eantle a ragged gash showed where it had passed out The »#!• had not missed his left hip to ex- teed an inch. • »IisIuYstarted lier horSe so suddenly that before he realized her purpose she was well in the lead’ and going at a dead run toward the mouth of Jbe gulch where it opened out Into Jlw main bottoms two hundred: yards fsyoud. ■. 1 From the opposite slope riders were JjrzinS cJJffSlI0Ut pf: their respective Otam1 TBe running horse Civgist ev- l T,y. “>fn s eyes as the girl careened out into the center of the valley, rose In her stirrups and waved an arm tn a circle above her head. In five seconds riders were whirling in behind her from all directions as she headed for the wagon. She waved those already on the spot toward the rope corral. “Change horses!” she called, and as each man rode in he caught up a fresh horse. “Scatter, out; some of you .below where we came down, some above,” she said.* .“Five hundred to the man that brings Morrow In.” “It’s . no use, Billie,” Harris coun­ seled mildly. “He’s plum out of the conn try by now. It’ll be dark in three hours—and it’s right choppy country over there.” Waddles- interposed - and seconded her move. “Let ’em rip,” he said. “There’s Just a chance.” Bangs was the first to change mounts. The boy’s physical qualifica­ tions were as sound as his mental ability was limited and it was his pride to have a string of mounts that included the worst horses in the lot. He rode from the corral on Blue, hold­ ing the big- roan steady, and beaded up the ridge a mile below where Har­ ris and the girl had come down. Rile “It’s a Plant,” He Said. “Ride Hard.” Foster chose the next; five riders were but a few jumps behind. Harris did not change horses but searched hastily in his war bag and slipped the strap of a binocular case across bis shoulders and rode off with the girl as she finished cinching her sad­ dle on a fresh horse. In less than five minutes from • the time" she had reached the wagon the last Three Bar man had mounted and gone. Harris rode with her up a long ridge that led np to the divide; they followed another Into the next bot­ toms and ascended the second divide. This was sbarp and rocky, its crest a maze of ragged pinnacles. He chose the highest of these and dismounted to sweep the range with bis glasses. The high point afforded a view of every ridge for miles. After perhaps half an hour Harris caught flye horse­ men in tbe field of bis glasses. They were riding in a knot. "They’ve picked up his trail,” he said. “But he’ll have too long a lead. We might as well be going.” They. mounted and beaded to tbe right along the. divide. "If Rile is in siglit we can wait for him,” he said. “And see if he’s picked up any tracks.” A half-mile along the ridge they saw Foster off through the breaks and he was working back their way. “Thanks, Billie,” Harris said. “For losing a circle trying to run him down.” “I’d have done as much for any Three Bar man,” she returned. “Of course,” be said. “I’d have ex­ pected that. But all .the same it shows that Tm progressing. Maybe my good qualities will grow on you until you get to thinking right well of me.” They waited till Foster joined them on the ridge. “Bangs crossed over, a mile below,*9 HUe said. “We might pick him up.” “Any sign?” Harris asked as they moved' down the divide. “A bunch of shAd horses went down through there a few days back," Rile said. “Three or fonr men likely, with a few pack horses'along. He’s pulled out” “I saw him,” Harris said. “He’s gone.” They stopped in the saddle of the ridge where a fresh track showed the spot Bangs had crossed. The girl was looking at Harris and saw a sudden pallor travel up under his tan and as she turned to see what had occasioned it he crowded bis horse against her own. “Don’t look!” he ordered, and forced her horse over the far side of the ridge. “You’d better ride on back to the wagon,” he urged. “There’s been some sort of doings over across. Rile and I will ride down and look into it” Without a word she turned her horse toward the wagon. “It’s God’s mercy'she didn’t see,” . Harris said, as the two crossed back over the ridge. "Isn’t that a b—I of a way for a man to die?” But the girl had seen. Her one brief look bad revealed a horse com­ ing round a bend in a little box can­ yon below. A shapeless thing dragged from one stirrup and at every third or fourth jump the big blue horse side-slashed the limp bundle with his tieels. As the. two men reached the bottoms the frenzied horse had stopped and was fighting to free himself of the thing that followed him. He moved away from it in a circle but it was always with him. He squealed and kicked it, then dashed off In a fresh panic, side-swiping his pursuer. Harris’ rope tightened on his neck and threw him. As he rolled over Foster’s noose snared both hind feet and he was held stretched and help­ less between two trained cow horses while the men disengaged the bundle that had once been Bangs. One boot Iieel was missing and his foot was jammed through the stirrup, evidence that the horse had pitched with him and the loosened heel had come off, allowing his foot to slip through as he was thrown. Harris pointed to a burnt red streak across the right side of Bangs’ neck. He unbuttoned his shirt and revealed a similar streak under his left armpit. Old Rile cursed horribiy and his face seemed to have aged ten years. “They learned that from the albi­ no," he said. “It’s an old trick that always works. They dropped a rope on him and jerked him, pried off his heel, shoved his boot through and laid the quirt on his horse. Blue did the rest.” Both men knew well how it hap­ pened. Bangs had run across the camp of some of the wild bunch, men he had known for long, and the slow- thinking youth had suspected no more danger from riding on up to them at this time than at any other. He had told them of the shot fired at Harris and they had known that some other Three Bar man would find the trail leading from the direction of their camp. And Bangs would mention having found them there, linking them with the bushwhacker. When Bangs bad ,oft a pair of them bad ridden a distance with him and accomplished their aim. “It’s coming dark,” Harris said: “And by morning they’ll be thirty miles away.. That sort of a killing was never fastened on to any man yet” ” • The old man raised a doubled fist and his face was lined with sorrow. “Bangs6 was almost a son to me,” he said. “I taught him to ride—and we’ve rode together on. every job since then. You hear me I Some ODe is go- ing to die for this!” During the next week the girl In­ wardly accused the men of heartiess- ness. They’jested as carelessly as If nothing unusual had occurred and she beard no mention of BangA It seemed that it took but a day for them to forget a former comrade who had come to an untimely end. RlIe Foster had disappeared but on the fifth day he turned up at the Three Bar wagon and resumed his'work without the least explanation of his absence. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP. IC -What tbe Bible Is For. 1. The Scriptures Are Divinely In­ spired. (U Tim. 3:16). The first thing to be settled con­ cerning the Canonical Scriptures is their inspiration and authority. In the Scriptures God is at “sundry times and in divers manners” speaking to man (Heb. 1:1). Paul in this passage declares‘them to be “God breathed,” meaning that the utterances of Holy Writ were God's breath In men’s mouths. The Holy Scriptures do not merely contain the Word of God, but are In verity the message of God to men. The main cause of the moral break­ down of society is that men have been robbed of their faith in tbe Bible as the authoritative message from God. II. The Value of the Scriptures (H Tim. 3:14-17). L Able to make wise unto salvation <v. 15). Salvation is in Christ alone. It is secured through faith in His finished work on the cross. True wisdom leads to Christ crucified,- since there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and without the shedding of blood there is no remission (Heb. 9:22). 2. Disciplines the life (vv.16,17). In this “doctrine” is set forth the necessary standard of conduct. The only place to find the teaching of God is in His Holy Word. It not only sets forth a standard of life, but it; re­ proves—confutes error. The way to deal with error is not by denunciation but with a positive presentation of truth. The Word corrects (sets straight the dislocations of personal and social conduct), instructs in righteousness, and equips for service. III. The Nature and Effects of God’s Law (Psa. 19:7-11). 1. Perfect 1 . It is without, ,flaw ( converts and re­ stores the soul; turns man back to holiness and to God. 2. Sure. It Is absolutely dependable. God cannot lie. Man’s reasoning changes, but God’s Word endures forever. It make3 wise tbe simple. Not only does It makes wise unto salvation, but wise regarding tbe legitimate things of this world. 3. Right The precepts and judgments of the Lord are expressions of absolute righteousness. They fill the believer with rejoicing. 4. Pure. There is In it no mixture of error. It makes no compromise with that which is untrue. Because of this it enlightens the eyes. 5. Clean. The Word affects the life. Its cleans­ ing is from within and from without 6. True and righteous. The decisions of God’s Word are true, without exception. The judg­ ments of’ God’s Word are unimpeach­ able. Because of these qualities God’s Word Is more to be desired than the choicest gold. Obedience thereto brings great reward. IV. The Prayer of the Believer (Psa. 19:12-14). The life brought face to face with God’s Word is seen as slnfuL The soul cries out for ■- 1. Cleansing (v. 12.) The perfect laws reveal the imper­ fections of the life. The Word of God reveals sins of which the individual may be ignorant (Isa. 6:5). 2. To be kept from presumptuous sin (v. 18).Presumptuous, arrogant sins are pe­ culiarly dangerous. In the Mosaic economy no sacrifice was provided for such sins. - 3. Freedom from the dominion of such sins (v. 13). ■ How awful is the slavery of those who are in bondage to presumptuous sins. ‘4. That the words of the mouth and meditation of the heart be kept ac­ ceptable in God’s sight. From how many dangers the believer would be freed if the words and meditations of the heart were kept in line with the Holy Scriptures.

That familiar adage, “make hay while the sun shines,” loses its appeal as far as being housed in with a sewing ma­ chine is concerned on a spring day, when ail out-of-doors coaxes and teases ■ to come out into the sunlit open. Bather does it seem wi«er to sew and sew while the snow flies and all the landscape looks dreary and uninviting. For then, and then only, can one experience that grand arid glorious feeling of having the family sewing but of tiie way, ,in time to yield to the persuasions of budding, blossoming spring. So taking it ,for granted that the wise-minded have at this moment the liousehold sewing campaign well un­ der way, a few suggestions in regard to new-washable fabrics for children’s dresses for instance. It seems from all indications that printed pique Is to prove one of the most popular ma­ terials. Imagine anything in the way of a child’s ensemble so clever as a frock of printed pique with a coat of solid colored pique. Well, that is just one of the many happy thoughts for spring. Printed piqne and printed dimity are charming for school frocks. Make them up very simple like the one in the picture. Most of the patterns call for unbelted straight effects from shoulder to hem, as shown here. Very short, too, continues to be the rule. Tlie use for contrasting materials is apparent in the styles coming in for spring and summer. A favorite idea is to combine piques, ging­ hams and such with dainty organ­ die. You liave no idea how pretty the effect until you have tried it, of trimming a gay-patterned heavy washable weave with little ruffles of j F a i r y T a l e f o r C h i l d r e n | I B y M A R Y G R A H A M B O N N E R | er pigs, all listened to Mr. Lazy Pig didn’t!

Mrs. Lazy Pig shook her snoot which meant that she wasn’t always spoiling her children, for some of the other pig mothers had said tbat she did. “I make them grab for their own food, and I always try to grab first,” she said. “No, I don’t spoil them. I’m a reg­ ular pig, grunt, grunt, squeal, squeal.” The others wanted to know why this family of pigs were called the Lazy Pig family.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Beupholstering furniture at home is not a difficult matter. A woman who has reasonable skill in using a ham­ mer-and tacks, and who can cut out garments according to a pattern, will usually find no great difficulty in do­ ing over some of the upholstered pieces that need new covers. Some­ times a chair or a sofa that has been consigned to the attic as too shabby for use can be redeemend by a little W niture polish and a new dress. The old cover is usually removed to serve as a pattern for the new. one and also to permit an inspection of the stuffing already in the furniture^ If there is the slightest evidence of the p>esence ot such Insects as moths, tobacco beetles, or carpet beetles, all the old stuffing should be discarded and destroyed. The wooden frame­ work should be thoroughly. scrubbed, with very hot water. If a treatment with gasoline can be given out-of- doors, it will still further reduce the chances of unobserved insect eggs sur­ viving to do later damage. Sometimes furniture can be fumigated to get rid of troublesome insects, but tliis is dif­ ficult to do under home conditions, and most fumigants should be handled by persons experienced In their use. After the framework is thoroughly free from the possibility of harboring insects or eggs, the supporting web­ bing should be tightened and springs examined and placed in the right po­ sitions. Clean new stuffing of the de­ sired ; kind should be used. The bu­ reau of entomology of the United States Department of Agriculture sug­ gests still another precaution against moth damage. As moth larvae dn not feed on cotton, some furniture makers cover the inside stuffing with a com­ plete unbroken layer of : cotton bai­ ting, .fitted closely over the stuffing material and brought., to the exact edges of th# covering fabric This “Ah, we don’t know, or if we do— we won’t tell, for that is our secret. “The farmer most certainly doesn’t know what keeps us from growing fat. “If he did know he wosid give us whatever would make us fat, yes, he would. “But we stay thin and still we »at and eat and eat. “Ah, what good meals we have, delicious meals, for the farmer still hopes we will grow fat, but we won’t, we’re the Lazy Pigs—too lazy to even grow fat, and that is a queer, un­ usual and oxtremely lazy kind of lazi­ ness. “We stay thin and still we eat as I said before. “After the farmer saw that no mat­ ter what he did and no matter what he gave us to eat that we still wouldn't grow fat he named us the Lazy Pigs, and so we call ourselves the Lazy Pigs, for we think it is a fine name. “Ah. it’s our great secret, to eat a lot and stay thin, and we ail seem to understand the secret too, and we’ll all fool the farmer!” “We .think you’re very clever,” said the other pigs, “and we wish we knew' your sccret.” ((cX 1923, "Western Newspaper Union.) jEggs Served W ith) I Vegetables I We had the usual family name of Pig,” he said, “until a short time ago. “We were fed and fed, ah, such goodies as we had, and nothing seemed to make us fat. “That was the great joke over which your mother, Mrs. Lazy Pig, . “Why Didn’t We Grow Fat?” and I, were laughing about a little while ago. “The farmer couldn’t understand why we didn’t grow fat.

The seventeen-year-old murderer, who was afraid of a kiss, has been sentenced to prison for life He is Vincent T. Rice, a Staten Island boy, and he slew his fifteen-year-old sweetheart, Alice Joost, when she asked him for a kiss. Having heard two alienists express tbeir opinion that the boy’s act was committed under the influence of an impulsive terror of intimacy with girls probably the effect of a too intensive religious training on a backward mind and an undeveloped sexual instinct— Justice Selah B. Strong allowed the boy to change his plea from not guilty to guilty of murder In the second de­gree. The opinion of these two mental ex­ perts corroborated the statement Rice had made in his signed confession, that the murder was unpremeditated, an act born of his exaggerated horror of a kiss which he said Alice Joosf offered to give him. Breaks Down and YJeepsi Rice, a pale, guod-looking boy neatly dressed In a brown suit and maroon tie, who had sat stolidly chewing gum and leaning on his hand during the taking of testimony,; showed his first sign of emotion when, after the court­ room had been cleared, he suddenly began to weep on his brother’s arm. After Medical Examiner George Mord had described the condition in which he found the body of Miss Joost the night of November 2, Mrs. Lucille Joost, mother of the dead girl, a white-haired woman all In black, calm­ ly told how, when she returned to her home that evening, she found Iier daughter’s body across the bed In her room, with a gash on her forehead and a piece of electric light wire tightly twisted around her throat. Then Rice’s confession, signed the day after the murder, was read. In it Rice told of his afternoon with Alice in the Joost home, Iiow they sang and played the piano, how, at dusk, Alice tried to kiss him, and asked him to “be a good sport”: how her actions and words filled him with uncontrol- able anger, how he struck Iier down and then, overcome with fear, stran­ gled her with wire. Afraid of Kiss. Then came the scientific description of Rice as a young man deeply re­ pressed sexually, afraid of girls, afraid that to kiss them might cause Iiim se­ rious physical harm, who reacted with terrible violence when a girl offered him a caress. Dr. George H. Kirby, an alienist of 1111 Park avenue, engaged by the boy’s family, was called to the stand. He had examined Rice in jail, he said, and found him constitutionally inferior. “Do you think,” asked the district attorney, “that this murder was pre­ meditated?”“No, in my opinion, it was not.’’ Doctor Kirby testified. “I look upon bis whole act as impulsive and unpre­ meditated.” Q.—How did the defendant explain his act to you? A.—He said he had struck the deceased in order to pro­ tect his lionor and preserve his health. Q.—How would you describe the defendant’s life? A.—It was one of intense repression. I attribute this to his religious training and the home influence. Doctor Kirby went on to explain that Rice had had epileptic fits from the age of one to four, and that these had undoubtedly resulted in ids being mentally and sexually retarded. Some­ where, he said, the boy had acquired a real fear of intimacy with girls, which would explain his abhorrence, when, if his confession was truthful, the girl attempted to kiss him.

Paris.—Georges 01eraenceau,.whohas wrecked many cabinets but won the country’s gratitude in the war, is bit­ terly conscious of a great loneliness in the evening of his life. When Ids sister died recently, friends gathered at his Paris home and one of them asked: “How many ‘official’ visits do you receive? How many ministers, how many marshals call on you?" The Tiger began, in what all thought an evasive way: “I sleep little; old -men sleep little. Often at two or three o’clock in the morning I awake. I would be bored in bed, awake, so I get up. I come out here, with difficulty, for some­ times my legs go back on me, and here, in the silence, I talk with the dead—” “It is during those night hours.” .went on the aged man who so often governed France, “alone with ghosts, dear ghosts, that I have written my memories of Claude Monet. Ahi Tliere come many of the dead, at night, into tills room. “That is my destiny. I see them go, one after another, those I love, ail of them.” Then, facing the one who was so anxious to know who remembered him, the Tiger snapped out: “I am alone, mynsieur, alone.” Russians Clamp Lid on Old-Time Music Washington, D. O.—The thorough­ ness with which Soviet Russia is attempting to supplant utterly every part of the old order which existed before the revolution is un­ limited according to the reports brought back by travelers who have been investigating the Bolshevik ex­ periment. It is the fixed intent of the Soviet leaders to remake Russia so completely as to leave not a memory of the old days of the czar and the nobility, or, at least, not a pleasant memory. Knowing that intangible as well as tangible tilings have a di­ rect bearing upon the thoughts and aspirations of a people, the Russian officials have gone so far as to cen­ sor music and to encourage a whole new school of music. Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun, a Scotch philosopher, is the author of the famous observation: “Let me write the songs of a nation and I care not who makes the laws.” The Soviet leaders apparently have every confidence in that statement and Iiave effected a complete revolution in music in tlie last decade, just as they have changed the social order, remade the government, altered all practice concerning property owner­ ship and generally set up a new Rus­ sia. With as much care as was devoted to the dissemination of propaganda of a political and economic nature, the Soviet government created a siiecial department charged with the revolutionizing of music. Suitor Chains Girl to Bed Post for 3 Weeks New York.—For three weeks, forty- year-old William 0. Miles, senior, held his fifteen-year-old bride-to-be In captivity, chaining her nude b-idy 10 a bedpost so no more youibful sheik could carry Iier off and marry her before her elderly admirer could save up for honeymoon expenses, it was re­ vealed. Mrs. Sophia Sader, landlady of a rooming bouse, heard groans ema­ nating from the room and told her husband, who called tlie police to lib­ erate the girl. She. however, told them to mind their own business and gel out. asserting her sweetie could make her a prisoner if he wanted to and in any fashion he chose. Nexl day the girl left her trunk witli tlie Saders as security for two weeks’ Iiack room rent and with the money Miles might have had Io pay out for that item they tripped to the city- hall where a marriage ceremony was performed.

Alpena, Mich.—Familiarly known as “Black Hawk," "The Poet Ranger” and “Doc,” George H. Connor, sixty- one yeais old, wanderer and adven-' turer, has found security from the dangers of a tempestuous career at a little gas. station, called by him “Ranger’s Rest,” which he operates on U. S. Highway 23, a few miles north of Alpena. He got tlie title of Black Hawk through having been adopted by a roving Indian tribe in Mexico -p 1881. “Doc” has been a ranger, practicing physician, chiropractor, lumberjack, bricklayer, railroader, tool and die maker, contractor and entertainer. He is a prolific writer of poetry which he signs with the sobriquet, “Black Hawk.” Life of Adventurer. Connor has led a life of action and adventure. He lived in Texas, Arizona and Mexico in the early ’80s when those sections were spots which at­ tracted the adventurer and the out­ law. He lias been shot three times and stabbed twice and has had 21 bones broken. He is a musician of considerable ability, playing tlie guitar to the accompaniment of verse which he writes himself. Connor is a picturesque character. Scores qf tourists passing his Ranger’s Rest stopped daily during the height of the tourist season, attracted by his appearance and held as interested au­ ditors by his ability as a conversation­ alist. He wears always the western sombrero and other clothing affected by the plains ranger. His mustache and goatee add to his personality. Connor was born in West Bay City, son of J. B. Connor, lumberman. He ran away from home when nine years of age and obtained employment In the lumber camps of Michigan, peel­ ing spuds and doing chores. Later he drove a tote team and then was grad­ uated into the realm of a full-fledjied lumberjack. Doc went to Texas in ISSI and re­ mained in that state. Arizona and Mexico for four years. While there he Iiad many thrilling experiences and adventures. He returned to Michigan and re-embarked in the occupation of river driver. He worked in the vicin­ ity of the Au Sable river for years, hut also did lumbering on the Ride and Ocqueoc. Almost Killed. Connor said that while he carried on flirtations with peril In the South­ west, one of tlie closest calls with death was while employed In Au- Sable, April 13, 1SS5. repairing a giant Gram mill humer. This burner was 80 feet high with a 20-foot neck at the top. giving it a bottle shnpe. The burner suddenly collapsed while Con­ nor was working on the fourth scaf­ fold. Seventy thousand bricks rained down upon him and the five other workmen on tlie job. Four were in­ stantly killed. One died from the effects of being buried under 137 tons of debris. Connor was the only one who Snrvived and was released only after having been imprisoned under tons of bricks for five and one-half hours. “The agony which I suffered— buried alive—cannot be described.” “Doc” says in telling of his experi­ ence. Subsequently he worked In Detroit where he went to night school at De­ troit college. He qualified as a doctor of medicine and practiced six years In Detroit He also followed the profes­ sion of chiropractor for one year in Canada. The prosaic character of his profession and the demands it made upon him were too severe and he quit practicing.

I feel perfectly weU (think of it!) and I am sure no one came so near to the pearly gates and missed going through. “Yesterday a doctor said to my mother: ‘My God, Mrs. Stultz, this thing is a miracle that she will get well!’ My mother smiled her radiant smile and said: Tt is time you gave the public something for their money; tell them to take Milks Emulsion.’“I have spent fifteen thousand dol­ lars in doctoring, climates, etc., and one bottle of Milks Emulsion is worth more than all they did for me put to­gether, and I have had the best med­ical advice in the world. "As I said before, I am feeling fine and the rales are all gone from my ches.t; have no cough, but I am not taking any chances of getting a re­ lapse, so I am going to stay right in bed and take Milks Emulsion until I get my weight back. “I look down at my feet sticking up in the bed and say: ‘By golly, babies, you are going to do some walking now. Cheer up; your day is coming.’ ‘T can’t tell you how happy I am, and I love the Milks Emulsion Com­pany, Faithfully and affectionately yours, ANAMAE STULTZ, Colfax, Calif.” Jan. 28, 1927.

Trees Retain Moisture Cast by Drifting Fog Trees and other vegetation catch water from drifting fog, and often shed it on the ground below in imita­ tion of rain. This is called fog-drip. The legend of the rain-tree of the island of Ferro is explained as a case of fog-drip, and the dewponds of the : downs are not fed by dew, but to a large extent by fog drifting in from ! the sea and caught by plants around I the ponds. I A scientist made the experiment of 1 measuring fog-drip, by exposing two rain-gauges on Table mountain, South Africa—one in the ordinary way, the I other with a number of upright plant : stems attached to it in such a way as to catch water from the mountain. . During 5G days the first gauge caught only four inches of water, and the other nearly eighty inches. Table Used For 400 Years One f the most famous tables in England is in disuse awaiting repairs after centuries of service. It is the poor pilgrims’-table in St. Thomas’ hospital, Canterbury. The table, which stands in the re­ fectory of the hospital, is of oak, and will seat 20 persons. Until recently It was used every day, as it has been for nearly 400 years, by the poor pil­ grims who came to Canterbury to visit the shrine of Thomas a Becket, and who had the right to a free bed and board, and a few pence a day. North China to Punish Bribery With Beheading Peking.—“Off with their heads” is the order issued h.v the Chihli provin­ cial government for officials who are caught taking bribes of more than $500 gold. The order lias been sent out to all magistrates. Capital punishment for corrupt offi­ cials is a new. regulation In China, where officials have regarded “squeeze" as a part of their johs for centuries. Some of the most notable officials in the past have been most notorious for stealtng public funds. But the Nationalists declare they intend to discourage this practice and will make an example of the first of­ ficials in north China who are caught. It has been rumored that Nationalist officials have stolen large portions of the public funds, following age-old precedent. Stone Age People Made Toys to Amuse Children Stockholm.—Whether-nr not there was a Sant!) Chius in 'the Stone age primitive people provided toys for the amusement of their little ones. Ivar Schnell. archeologist of the state his­ torical museum, has fotind miniature stone' objects, clearly meant as play­ things for children. One of these was a tiny but well-made stone ax 2.5 centimeters in length, evidently fash­ ioned by some fond Stone age daddy for bis little hoy to play with.
