Another squawk has been heard from Coleman Roberts, of the Caro lina Motor Club, the first one,’since he moved his headquarters to Char lotte. He is suggesting tfiat the federal government be asked to ap propriate $600,000 annually for two to employ additional highway patrol men to worry and annoy motorists io North and South Carolina We have enough of these state-wide patrolmen now and don’t need what we have. So many accidents are oc curring on the highways that the state bureau in Raleigh has ceased to give out the number of-people killed at-the end of the month. At least we have seen no figures of this kind since February. Mr, Roberts need not go to Washington to ask for more of. these’ Democratic hench men to speed around over the State. All he has got to do is to tell Czar Jeffress that they are needed and forsooth they will be put on; At leastthis isthe way the patrol was almost doubled two years ago after the Legia-Iature said it should not be done but Czar. Jeffress was a bigger man than the Legislature and . went ahead and almost doubled the force. —Union Republican. Timely Topics.

The merchants sale tax becomes effective Tnly ist. Just bow this tax is going to be collected remains a mystery.

' ‘Pity the price of wheat, corn and cotton hadn’t gone up before our farmers sold what they had. Buy ing back the feed and cotton goods at higher prices won’t help the farmer any this summer. Here’s hoping prices will continue to rise, and that Davie farmers will have something to sell next fall fcr which they will get a reasonable price. Will Senator. Clement, of Rowan, please advise us just how much of that million and a half dollar rev enue that he promised us from the sale of beer and wine, has been collected during the first month of legalized beer? We hardly think tbe ‘state has collected $150,006 beer tax since May ist, which it must average monthly to make the million and a half yearly. Haden hasn’t promised to make up the de ficit. When Senator Hayden Clement, of Rowan county, was making bis fight in the North Carolina legisla iure to legalize, the sale of wine and beer in this state, he declared that the tax on beer would.bring in. a million and a half dollars annually. According to reports from Raleigh the tax for the month .of May was’ around $50,0 0 0, which means- that it sales hold up during the coming 11 months as'well as they did -the first-month, the total revenue will be only around a half million year ly.

North Carolina merchants are hard at work devising means of pas sing on the three per cent. general saies tax levied by the 1933 Legis lature states Willard L. Dowell, sec retary of .the North Carolina Mer chants Association.' Dowell says he has received pro posed .• ‘-‘pasBron-plans’’ f-om mer- cliahts in. all sections of the .state:' He said he would submit all the pro posals' to the state commissioner of revenue as soon as Governor Ehring- haiis named that official for. 1933?35. I The annual convention of the Mer chants Association will be held,, in Winston-Salem June 26 and 27 and at that time the association will de cide whether it will contest the con stitutionality of the sales tax. An independent group of Charlotte merchants already has announced it wiil fight the act. . r. ■' Dowell said sometime .ago. he did not believe ther&ssociation would file a contest if .sasisfactory means were devised of passing on the tax', A supplemental law to the revenue- to set up rules by which the tax will be passed to the consumer. - ' Four ‘^pass-on.” proposals submit ted Io Doweir follow: ' I—That the merchants absorb the tax on articles priced under' four cents; one cent tax from five to 35 Ciente in price; two cents from £5 to 69 cents and three cents from 65 cents to $1. The amount of the tax would be shown on each sales ticket. 2—A tax of one cent on all articles under 33 cents; two cents from 33 to 60 cents and three cents from 60 cente to $1. 3—To require the state to pre pare stamps in amounts ranging from a fractional part of one cent .on up, sell such stamps, to: the mer chant who would, be required to fix such . stamps in the exact amount-of the tax on all articles. 4—To require the Statex to Drint stamps in- exact denominations as the money system* that is, one cent, five' center ten cents.: twenty-fi ve and- fif- ty cents, one doTlar and so forth. A dollar’s worth of such stamps would br eold to merchants for three cents.: For example, a^five cent article would bear five cents in stamps. this representing 3 per ceht of the value of the orticle.;since the stamps, sell for 3 per cent of face value. .

She was' there. She calne in a shay with an aide of the.general She dismissed "the aide. Never, have I seen such a beautiful maiden—like a young fawn In midsummer. I fell in love with her myself.

"She sat down at a table and wrote a letter, to you with my sister’s pen. Here it is.” Mrs. Bowlby drew the letter from the pocket In her skirt and gave ft to the young man. He read it eagerly: “My beloved: Your letter is llke a warm wind In the spring. It- has blown the clouds' out of my . sky. A' few drops ofe-rain fell as they were • going. God is good to us. I can no longer doubt that our love has His favor In spite of the fact that I have learned how to swear. Even the best of -Americans know how to do that. It’s In the blood. I have heard General:. Buigoyne say that America is so full of trouble—rocks, stones,, trees, stumps, swamps, roots, mosquitoes, bad werither, plagues and savages— that even religion is hard, work so that every one who tries to. practice it needs a minute of rest now and then. When you add war to. all this even women should have a minute, or two, often, for needed relaxation.- I am happy now—like a ship come- to an-, chor In quiet water with green trees' in. sight. after a - hard voyage.

With little, experience they ha"d no heart for that kind of weather, A panic spread among them and soon they were all In retreat General Washington hurrying to the scene met and tried to rally them. They could, not be turned. They went on leaving him-exposed to the ad vancing enemy. A new Washington was now with Colin Cabot who had Jieen riding at-his side. Mortified arid dismayed, the-Chief was In a rage: He snapped bis pistol at the retreating ’ men- He threw it on the ground. He threatened them with his. sword. “My G—d!” lie exclaimed, “are these the kind o f men I must depend upon?” ; In anger he turned his horse toward the enemy. It seemed as If he'were of a ’ mind' to end his'humiliation in a brave, and sudden sacrifice rather than Join the rout of men fleeing from their duty.

Preparation for 'a decisive battle is expensive and when it is Suddenly discovered that the enemy has safely moved to parts unknown, the effect Is disheartening. Crossing three thousand Mfles 1 of sea to make war in a strange, unfamiliar setting, is at best a costly enterprise. The expense of it was -vastly in creased by a corrupt administration of its finances and a scarcity of ships and . seamen. Food went bad on the - long journeys and was soon a store of maggots.. Horses starved to death, men rotted with scurvy and were thrown into the sea or came through sickened by the, hundred and unfit for service to be a charge on supplies Chaos and confusion were at war with each oGier. General Washington knew that continued frustration and delay jnust, soon or Iate> break the spirit of the strongest empire.

This- Is the grand climax of the year’s lessons. Without apprehending ,the significance of the crucifixion of Christ, , all the other lessons 'are meari- ingless. It is not a ' matter ot learn ing lessons taught by a great teacher : or imitating the example o f a great and. good man, but apprehending the vicarious atonement made by. the world's Redeemer. Christ saves, not by . his ethical teaching, but by his shed blood. I. Jesus Arraigned Before Pilate" (vv. 1-15). ' " ~ They bound Jesus and delivered him to Pilate In the early morning before the mock trial of Jthe high priest The Jews, would gladly have killed him but they" lacked the au thority-to do so! They delivered him to the Gentile .governor, thus Involv ing the Jews and Gentiles In this crowning act of human sin. Pilate questioned him without delay. He was accused of pretending to be a king. To this slanderous accusation of the chief priests and elders he made no reply, to the utter astonishment of. Pilate, who sought to release hlm be- cause convinced of his innocence. Aft er several unsuccessful efforts to es cape responsibility, he Yesortedi to the ,expedient of letting the people choose between Barabbas and Jesus.- II. Jesus/Crowned With .Thorns (w . 16-20). After Pilate had .scourged Jesus, he delivered him -to be crucified. .. 1. Crown of thorns (w , 16, 17). Knowing that Jesus had been con demned for claiming to be Israel’s King, they clothed him with purple and; crowned .him. with ri wreath of thorns.. The crown of thorns typified the' cross which he' bore, for man's sins (Genesis 3:17,18). 2. -Their salutation (v. 18). In de rision they saidj "Hall, King of the Jews!” ...; ; . 3. Their mock worshlp (w .1 9, 20). They smote him on the head .with a reed,; taunted'; him,V rind went through, a , process of mock worship. • ; ? 411. Jesus Crucified; (vv. 21-41). . L They . led him away to the place of crucifixion - (Vy. 21-23). At first they compelled him to bear bis own cross,, but when physical weakness made this impossible they forced Si mon, the Cyrenian, to bear- it. OhrlsFs face wad'so marked by the thorns and cruel blows that there was no form nor comeliness (Isa. 53:2). 2. Gambling for the clothing of the Lord (w . 24, 25). They "gambled for bis searnlteSs-robte. under the very cross upon which Jesus was dying. ' 3.:The superscription (v. 26). It was customary to place over the victim' on the cross, bis name and a statement of his crime. He was indeed the king of the Jews., '.; 4. Between two thieves (vv. 27,28). His Indentification with the two rob bers was in .fulfillment of. the Scrip ture (Isa. 53:12). , - 5. The dying Savior reviled (vy, 29-32). They taunted him by bidding him. come down from the cross, and said derisively, “He saved others, him self, he cannot save.” He, could not save himself arid others, so he chose to die to save others. _ . - 6.--Darkness upon the Iarid (v. ,83). Nature threw around the Son of God a shroud to hide him from the gaze of a godless company. - 7. The cry from the cross (w> 34-36). When God Iaidwpon his beloved Son the wbrid’s sin and turned his face from-him, there'went out the awful cry of anguish, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” . 8 . He dismissed his spirit (v. 37). When the price of redemption was fully paid, Jesus as sovereign dis missed his spirit —/ : 9. The rent vail (v, 38). This sym bolized the giving up of his life (Heb/ 1 0:20). , / . . / - 10. The centurion’s confession (v. 29). He said, “Truly this man was the Son of God.” ~ . 11. The. lingering group of-womeri (vv. 4(L41). Having lovingly minis tered to him In life they were now waiting to care for his precious body. ■ IV. Jesus’ Burial "(vV. 42-47): ; Loving bands now took the-body and iaid it in Joseph’s new tomb.

Davis RESPONDING to a demand for a clear statement of the policy of the United . States in the matter of peace and disarmament, Norman H.Davis, ambassador-at- large, announced to the disarmament con ference in Geneva what seems to many a revolutionary de parture from tradi tional American poli cies. Apparently, it means that the United States has abandoned isolation, neutrality rights and the free dom of the seas. Spe cifically, Mr. Davis pledged his gov ernment never to interfere with inter national action against a nation that has been satisfactorily iden tified as an aggressor, and to par ticipate in “effective, automatic and continuous” international supervision designed to make certain that the na-' tions. carry out their promises in dis armament. “President Eoosevelt’s message,” he said, “is a clear indication of the fact that the United States will exert its full power and influence and accept its just share of responsibility to make the results In disarmament definite, prompt and effective.” After announcing that the United States was willing to consult with the other states in case of a threat to peace, Mr. Davis set forth the Amer ican policy in these words: “Further than that, in the event that the states, In conference, deter mine that a state has been guilty of a breach of the peace in violation of its International obligations and take measures against the violator, then, if we concur in the judgment rendered as to the responsible and guilty party, we will refrain from any action tend ing to defeat such collective effort which these states may thus make to restore peace.” Asserting that there must be real ac complishment in the way of disarma ment, or a reversion to a race In arm ing, Mr. Davis proposed drastic arms reductions, and promised that the United States would go as far In this as the other states. Great Britain,- Germany and Italy were highly pleased with Mr. Davis’ pronouncement, but France remained dissatisfied, both with the security of fered by the United States and with the Davis proposals for armament re duction. The more the French get, the more they demand,, and their obstinacy is exceedingly irritating tothe other nations. Foreign Minister Paul-Bon- cour told the conference that France would not reduce her armaments un less a definite system of mutual as sistance is created, supplemented by genuine supervision of armaments.'. The supervision,. he said, must espe-' cially cover armaments which- are manufactured In private factories. On the second day the senators heard about Morgan & Co.’s “preferred list” of friends to whom the firm sold Alleghany Corporation Common for $20 a share when the market price was $35. In this list were many well-known names, including William H. Woodin, now ’ secretary of the treasury; Charles Francis Adams, later secretary of, the navy; Senator McAdoo, Newton D. Baker, John W. Davis, Gen. John J. Pershing, John J. Raskob, Silas H. Strawn and Coh Charles A. Lindbergh. Another list revealed Included the names of bank officers and directors- to whom the' Morgan - firm had. made loans. Some of these loans had been repaid, but many had pot, and In the latter category the largest was a lit tle over $6,000,000 to Charles E. Mitchell, former president of the Na tional City bank of NewYork, whose trial for alleged Income, tax evasion was going on In New York city. Hugh S. Johnson J. P. Morgan INVESTIGATION of the private bank ing firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., greatest of its kind in America, was started by the senate banking com mittee with J. PIer- pont Morgan,- senior partner, as chief wit- gggp , ness. The proceedings..# were conducted by Ferdinand Pecora on behalf, of the com mittee and attracted a throng of specta tors. John W. Davis, former Democratic Presidential candi date, was there as counsel for Morgan, and the banker was .severer times re- ' IIeved from nagging questions of Pe- cora by the protests of Senators Glass and McAdoo. Most interesting to. the public of the facts brought out was that no income tax whatever was paid by Morgan or any of his nineteen part ners for 1931 and 1932 and that they paid an aggregate of Only $48,000 in 1930. This was because of heavy losses sustained by the firm.'-Morgan could not recall whether, he personal ly paid any-tax in 1930, but. counsel for the investigators said he did not Morgan repeatedly answered “I do not know”, to Pecora’s .queries about a $21,000,000 loss written-off his firm’s books on'January 2, 1931, In addition to other deductions which already had wiped out taxable -income. Finally the banker asked Leonard Keyes, office manager of the firm, to explain the matter. ., . ■ Keyes said the involved transaction was the inevitable result of a revalu ation of assets made necessary by the admission of a pew partner, S. Parker Gilbert, on January 2, 1931. Pecora hammered. away with ques tions, but Keyes, a methodical appear ing man whb spoke' crisply and with out hesitation, repeated his. . account over and over. He testified that the $21,<100,000 loss could, as the law then stood, 'have been deducted .from Vthe firm's taxable income in 1931, 1932v or 1933. - - Three or -four million .dollars of the $21,000,000, he said, was deducted from profits In 1831-rra year Sb which • - the partners paid" no ta$^-but none' In 1932, when, the firm “had loss, enough.!’ [PEDERAL JUDGE HAROLD LOU- T derback of California was acqult- ed in the impeachment trial in the. senate, but he escaped by a narrow margin. On the fifth and most com prehensive charge 45. senators voted guilty and 34 for acquittal. But un der the constitutional- impeachment procedure a two-thirds vote is neces sary for conviction. IF THE administration and its sup porters In congress have their way, the $3,300,000,000 national recovery; hill, providing for regulation of Indus-. tries, and construction of vast public works, will be financed by : increased ineome and gasoline taxes and higher income Imposts on stock dividends, as well as the con tinuation for one year of a ll,th e nuisance, , taxes levied In the revenue , bill of 1932. That was the way it was reported to the house by the ways and means committee, and though the Republicans and- some others object ed to these taxes and- fought.for_a sales tax, that is the way- it ..is likely to become'law. , The sum of $220,000,000 annually will be needed for interest and amor tization of the public works, bond is sue, and the committee decided this should be raised by: , : 1. Increase of the normal'income tax rates from 4 to 6 per cent on the first $4,000 of net income and from 8 to. 10 per cent on all above $4,000; This levy is estimated to raise $46,- 000,000 a year. ^ 2. Extension of'the new normal In come tax rates to dividends now sub ject only to surtaxes and taxation at the source. Estimated to yield $83,- 000,000 a year. - . 3. The addition of another three- fourths of a cent to the present I cent a gallon federal tax on gasoline. Estimated to bring in $92,000,000 an nually. - These additional taxes, the report said, “are temporary In character and may be eliminated by proclamation by the President when Operating rev enues exceed operating expenditures, or when the repeal of the Eighteenth amendment opens a new and ample source of^ revenues to. the govern menL" To administer th e ’Industry con trol features of the measure when it becomes'law, President Roosevelt has selected: Hugh S. Johnson of Moline, 111., and he has been busy getting an organization Ib shape so he can go to work promptly. He had a large part In' formulating the bill. ;; .' ■ A close'-associater of Bernard Ba- . ruch, Democratic leader and. New York financier, Johnson was a mem ber of the old war industries board. HO was also head of the first draft board during Uie Worldwar and. since then has, had extensive; experience In manufacturing. He was born in Kan sas in 1882 .He turned to: the army for a career and was' graduated .from West Point in 1903. When he retired In 1919 he was a brigadier general. Y T rH E N Preddmit Roosevelt asked; W the nations of the-world to-^ree to a tariff truce pending the ibutcome of the London economic conference, the administration thought It would hot be in accord with good faith: to assess now the processing taxes on wheat, cotton and perhaps corn and bogs provided for In the fbrm relief act But Secretary of Agriculture Wal- Iaee thought otherwise, and after a conference Uith Secretbry of Stote Hull he was permitted to, go ahead with this undertaking. Probably there, will be protests from Europe and Can ada, and rUien the. diplomats must get biisy. V ; - Secretory - Wallace and George N. Peek, co-administrator of the,farin.re-: lief act; selected Guy C. Shepard of Evanston as administrator in charge of the packing; house p roducts ,under the act. He will have general charge of trade agreements between packers and between producers and proces sors relative chiefly to bogs and their products. Mr. Shepard, was formerly: vice president of .the Cudiiby Packing company . 1 - v ••To handle the cotton work under - Uie farm act Cl A. Cobb of Atlanta, GaL1 was named.

'• - . : XTEW YORK state came to the fore IN [n favor of prohibition repeal, in ■ a manner that surprised. even the af- - dent wets. The vote was about twelve to one throughout the state,- and -,in New York city it was approximate* Iy forty to one. The 150 delegates elected to the convention all are pledged - to repeal and they WUl meet In Albany- on June 27 to. execute the will of the people The Empire - state will thus become the sixth to ratify- the repeal amendment to the Consti tution. " r -: PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT asked of congress the suspension of Uie law'requiring the governor of Hawatt to be an actual resident of the is lands.

Thus it was that the new emblem of the nation came into official existence; thus it was that the Stars and Stripes were born. But, contrary to the belief of many Ameri cans, this does not mean that our national ban ner sprang full-grown into being from the brain of one man or one group of men on that June Oay 156 years ago. The truth Is that our flag, like so many other American institutions and symbols, developed by a gradual evolution and derived its inspiration from sources as varied as the strains of blood which have been fused into making “the typical American.” The real origin of our national flag goes back to the banner which was flown by the expedition that discovered the North American continent. This was the simple banner of St. George’s cross', in red on a white field, the old flag of England. It was carried by the expedition of Giovanni Cabot, or as he is more familiarly known, John Cahot1 the Italian navigator, exploring for Eng land, who discovered the North American conti nent In 1497. Sailing along the east coast for 1,000 miles, he laid the foundation of English claims to North America. The flag was borne later by Capt. John' Smith’s ships to'the set-' tlement at Jamestown, Ta., In 1607 and again by. IheMayflower to the Plymouth (Mass.) settle ment in 1G20. ‘ Xext in the line of descent conies the King’s Colors or the Union Jack, designed In 1606; sym bolizing the union of England and Scotland after King James took the throne of the united king doms in 1G03. This union was represented in the English flag by imposing the English red cross of St. George on the Scottish white diag onal cross of St. Andrew, on a field of blue. There are records of the use of this flag on forts In this country in 1679 and 1696, and’ this en sign was required in all British dominions by a parliamentary act of 1707. The term “Union Jack’’ was probably derived from King James signing documents In the French “Jacques,” the pronunciation of which is not unlike “Jack.” The “union” came to be applied to that part of our national flag carry-' ing the stars. In fact, when this part of the flag alone on bows of-ships, it is called the : 1—“The Stars and Stripes For.evecV'—Repro duction of the famous picture painted by Henry; Mosier.: The British, evacuating New: York after t.he Vorktown surrender ini 1781, nailed the Brit ish flag to the flagstaff at the Battery and then greased the pole.

Is “union jack" or simply “jack.” Three flags that had an early influence on the design of the Stars and Stripes were the striped “ass of the Dutch republic. The Dutch, It w ill be remembered, first colonized New Netherlands, before it became New York. This territory in cluded New York, New Jersev 1 Pennsylvania and Delaware. SettleiueDts In these states were made by Dutch colonists under their flags; that- of the atch West India Co., with three stripes of or- flHgel white and blue; the TTnited States of Neth- erIands, with six stripes of red, white and blue, the Rotterdam flag of green and white stripes. The English East India company finally crowd- ? e Dutch out of sea trade and this company nought a new flag to Anaerical a nine or ten- s jped Iifmner of alternating red and white s npes, with a small St George’s cross of red Q the upper corner next to the. staff.

The British flag was altered after the -ilevolution had begun by placing 13 stripes in the, fly of the flag under the British union jack. It was called the “grand union flag,” and was hoisted by Lieut. John Paul Jones on December ' 3, 1775, In the newly formed American fleet off - Phiiadelphia. On January l or 2, 1776, It was ' .raised oyer the newly organized American army at Washington’s headquarters in Cambridge. In , the correspondence of that day it was referred to as the “American colors.” It is interesting - to note that although; these American colors , were' used six months before the Declaration of Independence, they still carried the British nnion jack in the corner. The thirteen'united colonies were depicted by the thirteen stripes of the field. No flag' was authorized by act of congress un til nearly a year after the Declaration of Inde- ; pendence. That- the “grand union” flag was IItr tie used In the army is seen from the many flags of other designs carried by the Revolutionary troops. In the navy, on account of the necessity of telling a friend from a foe by his colors, thesame flag, was generally used by all congress ships. J ’ ’ In 1775, it was- usually the pine tree flag; in 1776, and until June 14,' 1777, the grand union, - and after Juno i4; .1777, the Stars and Stripes. Privateeis earned striped and rattlesnake flags of various' designs but It soon became .necessary to carry a uniform design^-and »this forced the ^ adoption, of a national flag. This is why the resolution, for the adoption of the stars, .and ' striped, appeared in the minutes of the marine committee meeting of june 14,1777. .. ■ - Because green was such -a, prominent-color in - - early Kevolutionary war flags, it would not have ’■ been at all surprising if tta t color, had found its way into the national, emblem.' One of the most striking flags of the Revolution vvais a flag with green fly and a union- of 13 links In an endless •'chain. Outside the circle of links was a circle of 13 hands or mailed fists, emerging from clouds and grasping'the lintaC In the center of the was a pine tree of green on a blue field. : -This was the; flag, of the Newburyport (Mass.) cbmpahy CJreen was also the color of the pine . tree ana liberty tree flags of RieyoluUonaiy aa^s: ;;; In April, 177?^ Maraa,cbosette' council pife scribed green 'a n d w b lte as ithe uniform of offl:_ cer* In their sea service, and In the sime year th e m arin e com m ittee, .of,Jthes Continental g r ^ in P h ilad elp h ia mblyed that 1 "•>' coat and breeches edged with green. Green was the color of the early Revolutionary cavalry's ^ uniform, Marion's riders wearing the Roman esque helmet of the French dragoons and cuiras- , siers, and a green, skirted, tunic with white re vere similar to that . of the French guides cavr airy, whose uniform the.first Napoleion was some- what partial to, wearing it quite frequently. The- • Culpepper Minufe Men wore green hunting shirts and the standard of the Georgia Rangers in the latter part of the war carried green and white stripes. .. ' ■ When it came to adopting the Stars and Stripes, however, the color scheme of green was ' dropped 1 and various flags of red, white and blue . tbat.h'ad been familiar to American colonists for more than 100 years exercised the prevailing in fluence in the design for the. Stars and Stripes. THe resolution adopting the flag appiears in-the, . journal of Congress among a whole page of reso- ; lutions. presented by the marine committee: on the subject of the navy. On the same page; with the flag and other marine committee resolutions is one :app 6iriting .John Paul Jones to the .com- mand of the ship Ranger. Jones was-presented a flag' b^some women of Philadelphia.and ’ so.on afterward he had tlie Stars and Stripes flying at seia. . ' - Contemporary, illustrations of Jones’ ships and the' description of the. new flag when it appeared in Europe, show that the early navy flags were arranged with the stars In horizontal parallel rows. Due to their number, the stars were stag gered, that iSj the stars in one row. were placed opposite the spaces between the stars In the next, so that they, looked Uke a constellation in - the heavens, as the resolution had described them.,;On one"-Ship they were in five rows; on another, in three. " ' Ingenuity began to'be displayed In the arrange- " ment o I StMS. In 'tinofiScial 'flags.: In some they : were arranged: In a square; in others, In a circle. Some had them In the shape of a single star, a ..diamond or forming the letters “U. S.” ' At first, the Stars and Stripes were looked upon merely as a navy flag, but In 1818, under . the third flag law, the present general design of the flag was established. This held the number of stripes to 13' and added a star for each state. The second: flag- law, passed by congress In May, 1705, provided 15 stripes for 15 states as well-as 15 stars; but as the number of states was In- ^ creasing by 1818, it was found necessary to cur- *ta ll the amount of stripes. , Capt. Samuel Chester Reid, of the navy, iiero : of a two-day engagement between his. small brig . and a British squadron of three large ships,.was called by the congressional committee to design a flag,, and it was his idea to hold the number' of red and white stripes to 13 for the original 13 - . states and to_ add a star to the'union for each . new state admitted. On May. 18, 1818, the navy commissioner^ is- sued an order, placing the stars In accordance . . Withthe navy custom, in parallel horizontal rows . and with the stars on the second and fourth rows moved to the right, one-half of a star’s ■ space. The order was signed by Commodore John : Rogers, president of the navy commissioners. ; : Six months later, he issued a change in the ar- : rangement. of the stars, approved by the Presi dent. This order required that the stars be ar-: ranged in vertical and horizontal parallel rows. The act of 1818 gave the fixed rule of adding a new star on the Fourth of July next succeed ing the admission of .the! slate, but made no state- :■ ment as to the exact arrangement of the stars and this has been-a matter with Which the Navy department has been chiefly concerned. ' This is because the navy flies the Union alone : without the stripes in the bow of ships. The navy has: attended., to details as to ^proportions : and design of the flag and still issues to all de partments, blueprints of changes, after approval by the President, In recent years army and navy have agreed on changes. In 1834, the army pre- ' scribed the Stars- and> Stripes to replace Its gar- ' rison flag then in-use; 'U ntil 1912 there was some confusion -as to - the: proper - distribution of the 48 stars In the - blue field. On‘October 26,1912, this matter was definitely settled by. the executive order of Pres- . ident Taft that-the, stars-were to be. arranged- In six rows of eight each, symbolizing the 43 stAtes in the order of!tlieir ratification. (Thus ;; If you . wish1 to know which star represents your state In the. flag, remember what was its sum-; ber in the order of Admission to the Unioiyttien . begin counting &om the upper cornW next-to. .. thci:«taff and the-star which comes' on the ndm- NATURE WORKING TO REDUCE CROPS .W heat Is D ried O ut and Corn Land Flooded. Chicago.—Nature seems, determined to enforce the provisions of the re cently enacted farm rdief act by con gress, at least as far as the curtalilng of production of grains by'American farmers is concerned. Drought and dust storms caused an abandonment of nearly one-third of the 39,985,000 acres winter wheat seed ed last fall. That leaves only 27,096,- OOO acres for harvest, against 33,656,- OOO acres In ;i932, more than. 11,000,- 000 acres less than the 1923-30 aver age. Tbe.crop.was officially .estimated May I by the government at only 339,- 000,000 bushels,.’ the smallest since 1904,' 125,000,000 bushels less than In 1932 and compared with 787,000,000 bushels In 1931, the largest on record. The drought in the^winter wheat belt did not extend to any extent into the main corn belt Instead, the tat ter has received continued and soak ing rains which has delayed plowing and planting over a section to plant between 25,000,000 aud 30,000,000 acres, ,or more than 25 per cent of the total for the country. • Only 2 per cent of the Illinois com acreage was pianted by May 19, as given-by an official estimate by A. J. Surratt, state statistician for the De partment of Agriculture;. Normally 6 6. per cent of the corn is planted by. that date. Less than I per cent is planted from the 'Illinois river to the Indiana line. Field work in Illinois, said the re port, has made little or no progress since May I due to almost daily rains and is. about IS to 20 days later than, usual for the state. . In the North the season ranges from 11 to 13 days late, and in the South 24 to 26 days under normal. - Crop Expert B. W. Snow was frank ly pessimistic over the outlook for the new corn cropi, arid said the wet Weather embraced all of Illinois, In diana and Ohio, the greater part of Missouri, southern Iowa and eastern Oklahoma, as well as portions of ad joining states. - - In the first 20 days of May' rainfall In Illinois averaged approximately 6 % inches, compared witlrTa .normal rain- .fall for the entire month of 4 inches, ap given by Nat C. Murray. Heaviest rainfall was In 1892 when the state average was 814 inches. In that year, he says, the acreage was 10 per cent less, than In. 1891, and the yield per acre' only 21.5 bushels.

C, , 4 t m " ' j , - ^ I fA V tt R 6 G6 R B W I bto DlSPElSMYSTEilY I OF BANK BUSINESS Country Banker GAres Simpli* : fied Picture of How a Bank Works to Help Other People’* Business Ac o d n t r t banker recently pre pared the following, simplrffltf. statement for his neighbors on Jnst how a bank goes about helping thein: “It Is the most Important part of a. bank’s business to lenfl money. Of all the money deposited .In a bank» tho -la# requires that a certain percentage be kept on hand as"a reserve , to' meet the demands of depositors. It Is the business of. its officers to lend the bal ance conservatively and safely. “The loans of a properly managed bank are invariably made to-those it believes ,are able to repay, and always’ on condition that they be repaid at a stipulated time. “The promise of an individual to re? pay a loan to a bank on a certain date is as sacredly inviolable as the prom ise of a bank to repay its depositors on demand, or, in the case of a certificate of deposit, on the date it falls due. When it comes to be known of an individual that he ‘always pays,' his credit Is established and his bank is always glad to extend him needed accommoda tions. “A well managed bank never 'Capi talizes industries. That is, it does not place its loans In fixed form, but puts them where they are to be used tor temporary requirements, and where they will be taken up at the Ume speci fied. ; How a Bank LendB “It is not the function of a bank to become a partner in industries, nor could it be legitimately done with the money of depositors.' Its loans must be kept in 1Uquifl' form,—that is, repay able in cash a t stated intervals. “A bank must ,use the greatest dis crimination in making loans. A -stranger cannot expect accommoda tions. It is customary for the borrow er to make a statement of his financial affairs, which is kept in the bank’s . records. It is a punishable offense to make a false statement for the pur pose of borrowing funds. “Naturally, In their dealing with the regular depositors Ql the bank, its ! officers become well acquainted with I their characters and their resources ; and are thus in a position to determine ; how large a line, of credit each one. ■ is entitled to. That is° one of the great • advantages of. being a- bank depositor.- “The mail who knows how to get ' into debt wisely, that is, who borrows money with which to make more money through legitimate enterprise, 'is the borrower whom the> bank is , looking for. By the frankjnterchaiige of opinion and a free discussion of various projects, the borrower is often guided and helped by his banker. “In order to procure a line of credit at a bank three things are important: “I. A statement of assets showing a basis of credit In the way of invested capital, or collateral of sufficient value to cover amount of loan, or “2. An endorser whose credit is es tablished at the bank; and' “3. Average deposits of a sufBcient amount to justify the extension of the desired accommodation.’’ AS WILL ROGERS SEES IT Will Kogers recently told why the !hanks had got into trouble. “Dpn’t blame it all on the bankers,’’ he said. “When we all needed money they loaned it to as—but when they needed it we couldn’t pay-It back." A dvertising A ids Business R evival NEW YORK.—Aggressive, concerns are expanding business by effective advertising despite depressed business conditions, declared A. W. D iller,ad- ’ vertising counsel, a t a bankers’ con- , ference here recently. I “Is 1933 a good year In which to ; advertise?". Mr. Diller asked. - “Te* ; if 1933 is a good year to stay in busi ness, to reinforce the public's confi dence In you, to put- more business' on ■ the books. Tbere is new business to be had today and aggressive compa- J nies are getting it. But new business .I will come in only if you go out for it. - Advertising certainly goes out for it. ... “Will people read newspaper adver tisem ents these days'? They will read anything that interests them. There .' are plenty of present-day arguments ■for business.” • 1 A dvertising M istakes A QUBSTION ,before..many of us ’ is what change of advertising pol icy, if any,'should 'be made In view of present financial and business condi tions. It is perfectly, natural for . us to give consideration to some degree of retrenchment, but it is dangerous to let reduction in expendlture be such as ■ to bring about a real gap-in the con-. .' tinuity of the advertising.-- It Is a .com mon mistake for some advertisers to ; think that they can turn .advertising ' on and off, like water from -a faucet,- .and expect it to.heoome immediately effective whenever they, are prepared to resume operations. Advertising does not work that way. -Temporary . conditions, should not influence .us to ■ make too serious inroads on the pro- : gram of advertising; which can b$. -wisely conceived only on a long term hasi8 .—FranqiB ' H. SIasony-EreBldqnt - American Bankers Association.'" f FOR FAILURE PROOF BANKING STRUCTURE Speaker Qatlin^s Threefold Co- operation Between ^Bankers, ; Government Officials and: the Public to Mjiiritaih B a n k S ta n d a rd s TWO elements beside the bankers themselves are required injorder to give the’ nation universally the type of banking it should have, Frapcie H. Sis son, .president of the American Bank ers Association, declared in a recent address. He said, that the efficiency of government officials upon whom the people rely to supervise the banks properly, and. the s patronage of. the. people themselves are factors in the kind of banks a community shall have. "There can be no question that: the people of the United States should have banks immune from failure and wholly free from bad or questionable banking,”. Mr. Sisson said. “It: is not enough, as President Roosevfelt has said, that while some bankers had been incompe tent or dishonest, this was not true in. the vast majority of our banks. A sit uation should exist in which there is not even a small minority of bankers open to question. There should be no room for dishonesty or incompetency to exercise any influence in banking -anywhere. _'. . “While bad faith and bad manage ment enter the human factor in all types of business, their etfects in bank ing should be surrounded by sucB spe cial safeguards-as to render them no longer a factor in bank failures. The responsibility for. bringing this about, however, cannot rest upon the bankers alone, for the means to accomplish it are not wholly in their hands. There are other essential elements. “One is the efficiency of government supervision. Since we rely so greatly' upon supervision, it may, unless it is of the highest order in safeguarding the public interest, create a sense of false security Supervision should render bad banking impossible, but it. has failed to do so. There was super vision by-presumably the highest type of bank supervisors in every one of the instances of questionable-banking' that has shocked the attention of the coun-. .try during the past three years. There fore a thorough strengthening of super vision is clearly called for if the people are to rely-.on it to the fullest extent for the protection of their intereste. J '• •• The Public's Part “Another essential factor in main taining good banks involves! the part played by'the public in banking. Theij©’: is certainly a responsibility on theipeo^ ■; pie themselves- to Bupport that type of: banker whose rigid adherence' to sound : principles makee -a sound bank, ra th e r; than to give their patronage to the easy going banker who may be easier to do business with, but whose methods cre ate a weak bank:' "Bank'customers are charged with a greats responsibility In protecting the safety of their banks in respect to their utilization of the assets of the banks as borrowers. Banks have failed because many of their loans and securities, cre ated in good faith by bankers’in coop erating with the business' interests of ' the'country; proved unsound under sub sequent conditions. An unsound loan is created by the borrower as well as the banker. A bank is only as sound as its. community, and this applies also to the -banking structure as a whole in rela tion to the economic condition of the nation as a-whole. . - : “A bank is truly a semi-public insti tution, but in a reciprocal sense—it has its-obligations to the public,' but so-has the public equal obligations .to the bank. No one' who has not sound bank ing principles at heart has any business 'In a bank whether as’ a banker or as a customer. ' “The banker is a semi-public servant. He is charged with the heaviest of re-' sponsibilities atid obligations that occur in our economic life: But he can meet HbySse. fully only through the coopera tion of good laws, good public officials who are empowered to exercise au thority over bis bank, and good' busi ness methods on. the .part of business, men generally who utilize his bank. Only through, such cooperation by all elements in our.nation’s community life can-we be assured of a failure-proof banking structure. “The Administration: at Washington: has taken hold of this ,problem with a firm grasp of essentials and is exercis ing splendid leadership: toward the de sired end. The strongest feature of the government program-will be found in recognizing the joint - responsibility of. the public, of business and of govern* ment officials together, with the bankers themselves : in creating - the:: kind of banking the nation should have.*’ Im proved-Pasture Pays TMPROYED pastures -are; a cheap • source of feed for- stock.

Gambling Legalized. r Both houses of the-General As sembly passed a bill legalizing gani bling on horse, races and provived for the establishment of the gam blmg den in McDowell county. The bill is most contemptiole in its cap tain of “ A bill- to be entitled ah act creating an agricultural and breeder’s association for the CoUntv of McDowell on the approval of the voters of said county.” Represen tative Neal of McDowell muft have might v poor opinion of the intelh gence of his constituentt to try to palm off as poorly concealed decep tion as that on them. It seems that some pi the legislator’s . were deceived by that innocent reading caption, but to imagine that the citizens of McDowell would not see through the ruse m sixty . days, would be- thinking them ignorant indeed. - The fact that the people of McDowell were chosen ps the most likely- of all the people of the state either presupposes their ignor ance or callousness to evil. This thing that the race horse gamblers have been trvm g for years to foist upon the state is a rookev where gambling vultures may ltgbt as they circle over the country looking for canon. We have a touch better opinion of the citizens of McDowell county than tne legislators seem to have. We donot believe that the citizenship is eitner ignorant or dead to the moral life of the county and state. Two years ago this same crime was attempted, against: the good citizens o f Buncpmbe._county. There: was such an indginan and for all as -for BiincblSbef ;• This time McDowell was chosen. There was no time given. It was a stab m the back that the people of Mc Dowell will resent and will show their resentment when, they vote, on the measute. It is nothing less than a shame tb it they will have to go to the trouble and expense of an election to kill a thing like that.

His betting bill, like others pass- eed by the late Legislature, has an innocentrsounding title, to-wit: "A bill to-be entitled an act to promote cow cplture and to stimulate the ferocity of male bovines.” The author said the bill would would probably have to be sneaked through so as to insure passage.

The bill provides for three races each Sabbeth at the State fair grounds. the Department of Agricul ture to get one-fourth of ail" bets laid. Admission to the fights would be 50 cents per head, while every bulLentering the ring would be tax ed ten dollars. Mrv Siler, insuring the people their inalienable rights, provides for an election .on the question by all - pa trons of the State Fair.

The Europeans were to Ieam that fithling for liberty ’and fighting, for ray were a different kind of business. At eight o’clock In the morning, Washington fell on the city with two detachments.

General Cornwallis aban doned his plan of going to Europe and took command in New Jersey.

Washington. ..ed away in the night leaving men I Ic keep the campfires burning and to imitate the chorus of picks, shovels, I Dies and ox teams at work. A t day light, Cornwallis began to throw his, cannon balls upon empty ground. He attacked nothing. The American camp was deserted. “The d—d Yankees” were of course far on their way to Princeton. Before he could arrive I there that link In the British chain I would he broken and Washington on I his way to safety. Cornwallis had I made a shrewd guess. Four hundred men were taken at Princeton with gum and stores. The remainder of He British force scattered, having I suffered a severe drubbing. This winter fighting with wounded I men floundering In pools of blood, miabsorbed on frozen ground, was re volting. At Princeton the bleeding was not severe, less than three hun dred on both sides having been killed or wounded but the men engaged saw more blood than they had seen since the war began. Our men were at fret severely set upon and began to retreat but the Chief rallied them and they came through with a handsome I Victory. The enlistment period of two regl- 1 ®tnts expired that day. The men had long been looking forward eager- h to the hour of their release. It came. Light-hearted they were going home They applied tor their dis- I Marges.

So the American commander in chief had gained time for. needed recupera tion. The spirit of :army and people had improved. The New. Jersey folk had been aroused to fever heat by out rages which are the inevitable result of occupation by the troops of an enemy. It was a favorable time for recruiting, but compared with the British army, Washington .had a feeble force of men, billeted ib Morristown. Soon a British’ spy', was ‘discovered in camp. His name was Luce. Should they hang him? “No,” Washington, said. “We will make a wise use of him.” Officers were apparently Impressed by the personality of Mr. Luce. They flattered him with friendly attentions, giving him . much lnformatioh and no time to visit the billets. A plan was made under which the battalions marching out of cover and returning to it were paraded three times before him. False returns on the number of troops billeted In that countryside were scattered carelessly on the desk of the adjutant when Mr. • Luce' came-.to dlne aloiie- With him. In the midst of the-dinner, the ad jutant was suddenly called away. The spy was now loaded and ready to de p a rt An easy way out was prepared for. him. He- vanished, taking to Brit ish headquarters in New York a re port of the force in Morristown which insured its safety. - Young Alexander Hamilton was in great favor w ith,the Chief. -.At,a din-, ner of the- staff’Washington-'called on hlin for a speech. The young man acquitted himself with such wit and charm that the General arose and shook hls hand.. After that all the ofllcers showed him great respect and the boy was often In tbelr councils. Snmmer came. The last detach ment of the British had left Amboy for Staten Island. "Burgoyne was ex pected In northern New York with an army "from Canada. The most difficult problem- of the revolution now challenged the in genuity of the Commander In Chief. He must prevent the' formidable army of Howe on York island from going up the Hudson to aid Burgoyne. The force. In- the -Highlands was strength- . ened. Putnam had put a , powerful chevaux-de-frise across the Hudson near Fort Montgomery to prevent ships from passing and to hold them under ruinous gunfire It was an im mense iron chaiD supported by log booms a few feet apart and securely anchoredrrtQsboth shores. Two forts on the river vbere well manned and must be reduced before ships could pass. Beacon lights on Butter hill at the northern entrance of the High-, lands would flash, the news of an M tv. .tack tor:Beacon:hurand'bhi;jsouthward to Mullender’s hill and Snake klli and the lower Hudson. Bowe might win his way but it would be a slow-footed, perilous undertaking. Washington’s problem was to detain Howe and en compass Burgoyne who, once landed a t the head of Lake Champlain, could never hope to return. Howe, having waited long for reinforcements from Europev embarked his army. He started southward, evidently heading for Philadelphia; Washington now said to bis Jersey yeomen: “Go home and do your har vesting and return as soon as pos sible.” In a camp almost deserted he sat down with members of his staff to consider the great problem. Plans Yor the encompassment of Burgoyne were complete when si messenger came from congress to announce that Gates had 'been given full command in the north. Washington had ample evi- dence. of the ambition of Gates to sup plant him and of his unwholesome po litical influence. Schuyler, command ing' in upper New York, was a gentle man to his liking and in the Chief’s opinion quite equal to the task ahead of him. Still, as usual, he must bow to the will of congress. Gates was a cunning politician. Morgan’s riflemen and Arnold's brigade were to be sent north to help him. C H A PTER X III The Connng of P at'an d the British From the N orth and the Battle. General Washington wanted reli able and early Information as to the force of Burgoyne, Colonel Cabot, eager for news of his sweetheart, had applied for service In the north. An express messenger had just arrived with a dispatch announcing that B ur-. goyne’s army expected to embark from. SL John's by the tenth of June. “There is " a dense Wilderness on either side of the lake,” Colln said. “It would be easy for a man hidden In a treetop along the shore to esti m ate the force. If you will trust me In the inatter I will get correct infor mation and arrange for relays to ride night and day until it comes to your hand.” “I will commit to you this undertak ing, for there is no man .-In whose prudence, energy and good judgment I have greater confidence,” said the Chief. “You know the northern road and many people who liveron I t You may prepare your regiment to set. out tomorrow-for Bennington, where you will report to General Stark for duty.”. The regiment set out with horses foUowing laden with bat baggage. There are illuminating UnfrleS ln Colin’s diary as to the northward Journey. through Danbury aind New Milford. "Bought some: leather and' many- men resoled their boots by firelight and Amos put a new spoke In a wagon, w heel” : I "At Danbury I cleaned Mr. Dun- Iany’s watch.” • “At New Milford I got a.spoon.mold and east twenty spoons after we halted for a night’s resL” . At Bennington the regiment became a part of the. big camp of rugged mountain men . under Stark. Its march ended, on a Sunday In early June., While it. waited for the bag gage wagons, officers and men went to hear the sermon and Scripture read ing. Rev. John Allen of Pittsfield, whom Colin had met at the Red Cock tavern In Rhode Island that night of the bloodless duel, was preaching. He tolcL the story of the quarrel with Conway and quoted , what the aide of Washington had said-as to the sub lime patience of the Commander in Chief under discouragement “When the leaders of humanity de cide to leave the old; road aiid take a new direction, there is much halting and waiting,” he said. “The new way must be cleared of ancient prejudice. But do not forget that the British hav.e more trouble in their way than We have. Courage we need and then —patience—divine, far-seeing, super human patience. We need the courage? bus undying patience, of .St. Paul, Triieo, the Light of the World was flickering. Our Washington has it,” , ,Allen ,was, Surprisqd and ,delighted, when, after the service, Colin shook his hand and introduced himself. .“The fighting parson” became a firm friend of the young colonel, and Stark ' invited both of them to dinner. Allen’s son- was a missionary at a settlement hear the lake in the north. “He will help you,” said the parson. “I will give you a letter to, him and a map of the road and trails. I think -that, the British-'- ares now embarked.- The Six Nations have gathered near the head of the lake to wait for them. I think that you had better Be on your ' way.” Colin left his-regiment in command of.. the capable Major Humphries and set out on his northern journey that afternoon, stopping at a log inn. When darkness fell, to rest his mare for the night As usual, he “hayed, oated and,-.strawed her” • w ith-his: own.-hand. After three days In the saddle he came to the rude hamlet In a deep valley near the lake where he found the young missionary. The British, had not yet passed. Young Allen, dls-: qualified for military service by lame ness, was eager for "any • chance to help, the great cause. The danger was that the big flotilla might pass: any chosen point in the darkness of. the night when a reckoning would be impossible. It was bound to be a long, slow-moving procession of sloops and bateaux. Studying a map of the lake, they chose two stations about ten mllles"'’aparti-' Alien ’ would aw ait; the invasion on a point near his home, Colin on an island some tew miles northw ard.. : >i‘ " That evening, with bis destination 'in , view,’ Colonel Cabot set out for% ‘. In n.srnail boat. It was . a lonely island covered thick with pine, spruce and hemlock. Its southern end dwin dled to a narrow stony point.- Apart from the forest, where the land be gan to taper, stood the stub of-a lone hemlock. . Its upper part, shattered by lightning, had fallen in the wind. It now laT splintered, decaying in the shallow^.. He concealed his boat In bushes and lay down* with hls blahkht on a carpet of Plne-Oeefiles and had a restful sleep. At daylight he climbed ’ some ten feet to the ragged top of the stub and found, as be expected, only a shell of sound timber that enclosed a mass of damp decay. He began to throw It out and soon discovered that it crum bled and packed under his weight un til h.e had a firm footing and comfort able accommodation for his stature inside the shell. Opposite his eyes, with his knife, he made two holes., like those of a woodpecker, fronting both , channels. This little timber tower, with its diminutive windows, offered an ideal opportunity to view the. passing of Burgoyne’s army. For two days, from dark to dark, he sat many hours in a treetop like a bird, looking northward for signs of the coiping caravan. Soon after sun rise on the third day he saw a new island with silvered edges and white towers in the distance. He watched it through his glass, thrilled by the thought that in the great procession moving toward him was a^fragment of mortality which had filled his later life with inspiration. Vast beyond his expectation was that endless flo-. tilla streaming down out of the north on the smooth, wide, water alley be tween high mountain ridges. Its length waved backward into dim, misty reaches of the ^ lower lake. When it had come within a mile or so of his island, Colin went to his station In- the hollow stub. . Before the front of the long proces sion was abreast he heard a band playing merry music. The flotilla was. led by painted Indians, in canoes. Soon he saw the first rank of the im mense bateaux, each about forty feet In length and some seven feet wide, and each worked by four men—head and stem men and middle men. W hat a colorful, impressive pageant was this moving dowq/th rough the prime val wilderness With regimental flags flying! High-hatted British grenadiers In red coats and white breeches; Germans in blue helmets; topped With gleaming m etal,., and - I n yellow breeches; women, hundreds ‘ of wom en, . some In g ay ; attire; blue, veils, white veils, and many children ; oxen, horses, wagons, tumbrels, cannon; happy voices like those of a crowded, street In London town. -The floating caravan was . flanked -by -six ninety-ton sloops. : : . : :• , Through -the long summer day Colin stood In his wooden tower counting and making -notes;- It was a trying day, with only a moment of anxiety w.hen a soldier amused, himself by shooting at the peek-hole In the tower. ..Fortunately, CoIin had seen his pur- . pose and stooped: in time, or that shell of hemlock would have been his tomb. Oftly a bit of dust fell on his head. He waited a few minutes before re suming his work. The sun was low when the last rank of bateaux In the vast caravan passed him. Its many ,voices grew dim in the distance; as the light of that long day faded Into gloom. He had counted nearly eight hundred of them and had a fairly -correct estimate of the fighting men —eight thousand. He wondered at the number of women and children. There were -some',twelve hundred of them and more than a' hundred musi cians. Night was falling. Stiff and sore he came out of . his hiding place, hauled his boat into water and put his -strength on the oars. /He thought of Pat and the ladles with her and of ■ the unexpected perils and hardships ahead of them—swamps, log-strewn forests, briers, black flies, mosquitoes, savages, some of whom would surely be infected with smallpox. He was opposite the center of the long flotilla When he reached Allen’s point a t nine o’clock. In the missionary’s house he Wrote a report to General Washington and half an hour later -was In his sad dle hurrying southward. In the'm orn ing he mounted a fresh horse at a farm, arranging for his own to be sent on to Bennington. That night he arrived at Stark’s headquarters and within ten minutes a mounted courier was on the south road with Colin's dispatch. After a few days’ training with . General, Stark,, he.,,received an order I'froffi the, COtniaander In Chief to go to Fort Tlconderoga and report as soon as possible on the plans of the Brit ish. On his journey he spent a night at Skenesborough, where he found a force of Americans. He learned, that Burgoyne’s army was advancing to invest the fo rt There he met the scout Israel Sapp, who told him that Mrs. -BoWlby had sent her children to a friend In Albany and was earnhig big 'wages driving an ox team for the enemy. Was it her interest In ro mance which had taken her to the British camp? The inn was closed and Sergeant Sapp had found accom modation In the house of a one-armed mill-hand of the name of King. Colln spent thei night there. While he sat at the breakfast table next morning there came an abrupt change In the situation. “Has SL CIalr fortified Sugar hlU?" he asked. , A’No,” Sapp answered. “Not men enough there to do iL” J “Then Ticenderega vWill fall. The ’hill commands the forL” .-•',“Congress has not provisioned it for a "siege.” , - .,JTKeir talk .was Interrupted by the ;!r«gif of CanqKh. • . “It’s the ’ British gunboats,” said King. "I don’t ’ know' what we will do. My w ife-is n e a r’her time and sick In bed; I cannot move until she Is out of the straw.” •The cannonading increased. King arose from the table to go out-of- doOrs. Suddenly a cannon ball bound ed through a window and against the leg of Sergeant Sapp, breaking it and crashing through a door; '^‘My G—d!” said Sapp. “If It was a battle I wouldn’t, mind, but I hate to lose a leg eating breakfasL” ; Colin helped King to set the bone an d . put splints on the leg of the wounded man.’ That done he mounted his mare and set- out for the forL Soon -he came upon St. Clair’s little army in retreat. Congress had failed tb-provision them. They would have been starving within a week. So they had to quit the fort. : Colin set out for Stark’s camp with a heavy heart. He wrote his dispatch when he halted to give his mare an hour of rest that evening and rode on until he came to a log inn at mid night." He was up and off at day light Before he had put his horse to hay at Stark’s camp an express rider was clattering down the road with his dispatch- toward the first relay twenty miles beyond. So the disheartening news went on to Washington. Soon John Adams, was saying: “We shall never .'.succeed until we hang a few generals.” It was a hasty remark. He would better have threatened the necks of a few politicians. A few days later an address to the troops came from General Washing ton. It was posted a t headquarters and read to officers and men on Sun day by Parson Allen, “Our situation before has been unpromising’ and. has changed for the better,” it said.’ “If new difficulties arise we must keep our courage and put forth new exer tions.’’. : “Thus the unconquerable spirit of our great Commander has come np to us through the hills and valleys," \said' Allen.. / 4Tt has gone.out to all his embattled hosts. Do ye not feel his ,God-given' patience? Get It in you. ,; Resolve to die-for it if neces sary and the' British will never pass us. We must all die soon or late. I shall be glad to die not of weakness, hut of. courage when my hands are Strong and life is dear to me, , unde feated, proud that I have given It for a thing far better than I." -The British ; did' not pass. - They made a thrust at Bennington and Were turned back with heavy ,loss and the parson “fought like a wolverine.” Colonel Cabot and his regiment had no part in the battle.' Long before It was fought they were sent to Albany to report to Arnold for duty in his campaign against SL Leger coming down from the northwesL So they moved southward to strengthen the little army soon to^engage in a big undertaking.-(TO BE CONTINUED.)

Since 'Christ’s resurrection was to be the central theme of apostoUc preaching, it was necessary that they have a certainty of knowledge as to It (Acts 1:3). Without the resurrec tion of Christ, his death would be meaningless. Out of the ten or more appearances, Mark refers to three. 1. To Mary Magdalene (w . 9-11). Her devotion was amply rewarded by being tbe first to meet the risen Lord. She went at once and told the story to the disciples, but they refused to believe her. 2. To two disciples on the way to Kmmaus (w , 12, 13)^ Luke, gives fuU particulars concerning this appearance (Luke 24:13-25), Jesus walked, talked, and ate with timmy convincing them that he had indeed risen'from the dead. 3. The eleven disciples' (v. 14). Jesus appeared to them while sitting at meat, and reproved them for their unbelief. The fact that they stead fastly resisted the testimony that Ohrlst had risen, but afterwards were willing to risk their Uves In toe proc lamation of this truth, proves the genuineness of their faith and should strengthen ours. IV. The Commission of the . Risen Lord (w . 15-18). After the disciples were convinced of the truth of his resurrection, Jesus sent them forth to preach the gospel to every Creature. What, a blessed issue to those who believe,'and how: awful to those who believe n o t “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned” (v. 16). y. The Activity of the . Risen and Ascended Christ’ (w . .19, 20), After giving the disciples their com mission, he ascended on high, and from toe unseen sphere* directed their: activities. Whenever they went he confirmed their word with signs. Christianity “Christianity Is unique;. Christianity. Is something most lovable; for Chris tianity is a persop, and the person is Jesus; and this Christianity has. ac-i complished more wonderful things than any other religion In the world.” .

News Review of Current Events the World Over American Delegation on W ay to London Economic Com ference— B rookhart Becomes “ A gricultural Ambas- sad t» ” to Russia— M organ Inquiry Proceeds. B y E D W A R D W . P IC K A R D SIX delegates and nineteen experts are on their way to London to represent the United States Id the In ternational economic conference’ from which so much Is expected In the - way of finding a path H i out of the world de- ■ presslon. Secretaryof ^ State Cordell Hull heads the delegation and his associates as announced b y t h e I Rep. S. D. McReynoIds W hite H o u s e a r e : Jam es SI. Cox, rice" chairman, f o r m e r - governor and Demo- c r a t i c Presidential candidate in 1920; Senator Key Pittm an of Nevada, D e m o c ra t; Senator Jam es CoUzens of Michigan, Republican; Representative Samuel D. McReynolds of Tennessee, Democrat, and Ralph W. M orrison of Texas, retired banker. Chief of the experts are W illiam C. Bullitt, execu tive officer; Jam es P. W arburg, finan cial adviser; Fred K. Nielsen, l.egal adviser, and H erbert Feis, chief tech nical adviser, under whom will serve several members of the “brain trust.” ! Of all the delegates the one con sistent conservative is Congressman McReynolds. He is chairman of the house committee on foreign relations and his influence Is expected to be potent in the deliberations of the dele gation. Senator Couzedsi the one Re publican member, has frequently lined up with the more radical Re publicans and Democrats in congress. The adm inistration, according to A ssistant Secretary of State Raymond Moiey, has considerably modified its expectations of w hat the conference will accomplish, and now realizes th at the prospects are definitely limited and do not include a lowering of tar iffs or an immediate perm anent sta bilization of currencies Secretary Hull is said to .be the only one of the adm inistration leaders who still ad vances the urgent necessity of a dras tic international agreem ent to lower tariffs and trade barriers. Mt. Moley included Only the follow ing am ong’the solutions which prob ably would be obtained a t the confer ence: ’ . - An agreem ent on monetary policy, through action of central banks sup- : plemented by an agreem ent among, governments; to synchronize policies of Internal public expenditure. An agreem ent on progressive re moval of restrictions on exchange. The International w heat conference moved from Geneva to London and there1 the representatives of the U nited States, Argentina, A ustralia, and Can- a8 a continued their discussions. If they agree upon any plan for curtail ing w heat acreage it will be submit ted to the economic conference for approval. Gr e a t B r ita in , France, Italy and the other nations th a t owe w ar debts to the United States failed in their effort to have the debts in cluded in the agenda for the economic conference, but their delegates enter the conference w ith the cancellation or drastic reduction of the debts their chief aim. The Roosevelt adm inistra tion insists th at the w ar debts, how ever im portant they m ay be, w ere not a m ajor cause of the depression and are not a m ajor remedy. Consequent ly the parleys in London are alm ost certain to develop into a great battle of diplomacy. President Roosevelt has flatly de nied that he intends to negotiate, new settlem ents o f the w ar debts w ithout recourse to congress. This was made necessary by dispatches from W ash ington published in London, saying Mr. Roosevelt had offered to accept from B ritain $10,000,000 as part pay ment of the $75,900,000 due June 15. It seemed fairly certain that the B ritish government would m ake this paym ent in full. This will be easier than before because o f the devalua tion of the dollar. B ritain can either pay In paper dollars, which cost about 2 per cent less to buy than gold dol lars, or In American securities, which can be bought with paper dollars at a discount and turned In a t par. m ittee, and -a new list of Important persons who had received bargains In stocks was produced. Ferdinand Pe- cora, the committee’s counsel,- w as persistent In his probing, but w as compelled to tell the senators, in ex ecutive session, w hat evidence he pro1 posed to introduce and w hat he ex pected to prove by it, and to con vince them o f the propriety of his pur pose. Senator Glass w as still deter mined th at Pecora should not bring out m atter outside the committee’s jurisdiction or Irrelevant to the in quiry. Mr. Glass said he had re ceived a number of anonymous threats by mail and w hat he term ed “blackguard telegram s" because of his stand. - - Though W illiam H. W oodin’s name w as on one of the Morgan lists of “preferred’’ custom ers before he be cam e secretary of the treasury and hence demands for his resignation were made by. various men in public life, Mr. Woodin declared he had not resigned. His statem ent left no doubt that he would be willing to quit his office If his presence there In any way hindered the return of prosperity, but it also w as interpreted to mean th at Mr. Roosevelt Wished him to hold on, a t least for the present. More serious, perhaps, is the case of Norman H. Davis, the very active “am bassador at large” in Europe, who also w as on a Morgan lis t Representative George :HL. Tinkham of M assachusetts has de manded a congressional, investigation of the financial dealings Mr. Davls may have, had with international bank ing and business interests. A sserting th at Mr. Davis has spoken a t Geneva in “repudiation of the tra ditional American foreign policy;” Mr. Tinkham said th a t a congressional committee should also Investigate Mr. Davis’ connection with “disloyal and seditious. American organizations and foundations in the United States.” R CBUMPIONS of th e gold standard In both the house and the senate bad little chance as the adm inistra tion forces pushed through the Fletcher-Steagall resolution for the abrogation of the gold clause In all !governmental and private contracts, both present and future. The meas ure, asked by the President to legal ize action already taken, w as first passed by the house by a vote of 283 to 57. Twenty-eight Republicans and all five of the Farm er-Laborites joined w ith the Dem ocrats in favor of the resolution. Representative Luce of M assachusetts, who . ,led . ,the., small minority, denounced the m easure as a breach of faith on the p art of the governm ent; but Chairman Steagali of the banking committee said, it was essential for the recovery of national prosperity.

In effect, this means the opening of trade negotiations w ith a governm ent th at is not recognized by W a s h i n g t o n , but B rookhart says his work has no connection w ith the question ‘ Of diplomatic relations, though he hopes recognition will re sult from bis efforts to effect a thriv ing, trade betwehn the tw o countries. The Iowan has been given the title of “special adviser to the agricultural adm inistration” and serves under Ad m inistrator George N, Peek. ‘T ve done a lot of work already,” he said. “I have gone Into the m at te r with people here, including the Soviet representative, Boris Skvlrsky. He’s a pretty fine fellow and I’ve had several talks w ith him." Mr. Skvirsky is not a trade repre sentative of the Soviet, nor has he connection with , the A m torg-corpora tion, organized by the Soviets to transact business In America. Mr. SkVirsky said that he is a representa tive of. the Soviet’foreign office. GER M A nv has refused to accept an unfavorable report of the League of N ations on . her treatm ent of th e Jew s and virtually told the league th at the affair is none of its business. The league council, how ever, referred juridical aspects of the issue to a committee of jurists with the understanding th at the m atter will have a complete airing. . WHEN President Roosevelt the other day selected A rthur E. Mor gan, president of Antioch college at Vellow Springs, Ohio, as director-of the vast Tennessee valley conservation project, there were many derogatory. re m arks about the ap pointing of ju st an other professor for a big job. B ut the skep- .tical ones did not know about Morgan.- Since 1902, when he w as just out of high school, he has been active tn engineering . work and has planned and supervised • construction of about seventy-five w ater control projects.- These. Include the Im portant reclama tion work In St. Francis valley in Ar kansas and the Miami conservation project at Dayton, Ohio. He was chief engineer In the Pueblo (Colo.), con servancy district; he drafted the re vised drainage codes for Minnesota, A rkansas, Ohio, M ississippi, Colorado and New Mexico, and .has been con sulting engineer on drainage and flood -control projects all over the/nation.

By S. M. Salisbury, Erofessor of Dairying. Ohio State University.—WNU Service. Dairymen in Ohio accepted a lesson from the' dairymen of D enm ark-When they organized dairy herd improve ment . associations; or cow testing as sociations, as they are most common^ Iy called. The forerunners of the modern Ohio herd improvement associations were the Eontrol societies of Denmark, or ganized 40 years ago. The Kontrol society, like the 30 modern Ohio dairy herd improvement associations, was formed to provide for a monthly visit of a tester. The tester weighed the milk 'produced by each cow In the herd and sampled It for butterfat test ing. H e also kept a record of feed consumed and computed production costs for each individual cow In the herd. From these records, kept year aft er year, the dairymen of Denmark w ere able to cull from their herds the poor cows and find and keep the good ones. So effective were the associa tions in Denmark that the country raised the average production per cow. to 8,000 pounds of milk and 300 pounds of b u tterfat Average produc tion of Ohio herds is a b o u t. 5,000 pounds. Testing year In and year oul with an eye to the low-producing individuals and their elimination from all fnture pedigrees offers our only hope for con tinued brooding of useful dairy cattle. Plant Beach Grass to Check the Blowing Sand The first private attem pt to reclaim thousands of acres of shifting sand in New York state was made recently near Brushton, In Franklin county. Nearly 5,000 clumps of beach grass w ere planted on a farm. The field, which is representative of nearly 10,000 acres in Franklin county, and of m ore acres in nine counties sur rounding the Adirondacks, is worse than w aste land, for it will not grow crops and Is a menace to a nearby road. The field grew 80 bushels'of buckw heat to the acre 80 years ago, an d 'fiv e years ago an attem pt was m ade to hold the sand by planting trees. The trees were literally blown from the field. The beach grass has been used suc cessfully in France, and by the Long Island park commission a t Jones beach, The grass is propagated by stolons, or underground stems, and ■ m akes a. m at so tliick that trees may ,be.rpla'nted on the ground within two or. three years. The clumps of grass are planted, about-18 inches apart and the 5,000 clum ps planted about a quar ter acre, or enough to show whether the method Is successful. Erosion on Piedmont Land Five million of the 50,000,000 acres of Piedm ont country extending from near New York city to central Ala bama, along the east side of the Ap palachian m ountains' have been essen tially destroyed by soil erosion as far as their use for crops is concerned, the United States Departm ept of Agricul ture says. In addition to these 5,000,- 0 0 0 acres which have been ruined, more than 13,000,000 acres have had the surface soil largely or completely stripped off by erosion. Although many farm ers continue to cultivate patches of this land, they are able to m ake only the barest living. In 1924, when prices were much higher than now, the gross Income of many fam ilies on these denuded areas, where the family averaged more than five mem bers, was only $300 a year. To pre vent such erosion destruction, the de partm ent recommends terraces, tree planting, strip cropping, brush dams to' prevent gull;».g, and sim ilar prac tices.

Youth Needs Schooling as to Others’ Rights? H a .state is to have a civilized population, its children- m ust be taught to behave like civilized be ings, C laire W illiams writes, in the Forum and Century. This instruc tion, I think, should begin in the nur sery schools. A child’s universe -is bounded by his skin; so Is an Infan tile a d u lfs; and the behavior of these"two types is likely to approach too close to savagery for the gen eral welfare. About the - m ost im portant thing the child has to learn is th a t the w orld is full of other people, whose rights he m ust observe, and w ith whom he m ust be scrupulous in the fulfillment of-his obligations. You m ay think thiis a trite obser vation ; but anybody who sees much of youth knows scores of young per- sons of good fam ily who grow to the age of sixteen or seventeen glorious ly unaw are that there is anyone else on earth who has any rights, or th a t they them selves have, or could possibly incur, any obligations to anyone else.

We mast express our sentiments, so far as the postal laws will permit, of the North Carolina Demacrats who promised the tax-payers every thing, and gave them worse ,than nothing in their late and lamentable Legislature. The Governor campaigned on the “No Sales Tax” platform, and tax payers, already losing their homes because they couldn’t pay their <tax es rallied to the Governor and his Legislature, expecting to receive re lief. The Governor nose-dived from his pre-election pledges to force his pup pet Legislature to enact a heavy sales tax, and if they did a solitary thing to reduce Democratic waste, extrava gance and inefficient admistration, nobody knows what it was. The excuse now offered by the lick spittle Democratic press and the party apologizers is that “favored in terests” led their, legislators and foreign-named Gouernor astray. “ Favored interests.” the dickens It is the rank and file of the Demo cratic party in North Carolina that is to blame. They hold the control of the bailor, manipulate the ballot b 'xes as thev devilishly care, and the sin, the shame, the criminality «11 liesat the feet of the Damocralic party in this state, • Thev have run North Carolina into more than a hundred million dollars debt, cost the taxpayers nearlv that much now every year to run things —and look where thev have run I them. Our public school system has been shredded and gutted and now is made the plaything of politicians. . One of the best graded school principals the state ever had recently resigned, re fusing re-election, and went to work in a cotton mill rather than risk his reputation and be starved by the party henchmen. North Carolina voters ought to recover their public schools from the hand of these political thieves. They should give the Democrats in author ity the only hint they, can compre hend by kicking them out of office and put people interested in the pufcf- Iic good in their places.

The grubs have been there since that time, sucking sap and growing. . A few weeks ago' the full grown grabs worked their way up near the sur face of the ground where they have awaited the warm days of May to swarm out in countless thousands. They crawl up the trunks of trees' Locusts of the 13-year variety are reported from several sections of North Carolina and Dr. Z H Metcalf entomologist at State Col-' lege predicts that they will appear in swarms of .1 thousands in many sections. He however does not pre dict heavy damages by the insects to trees and crops. “ The broods,of locusts appear ing this year were hatched from tiny eggs laid in the twigs and branchest of forest trees in 1920,” annd bushes }o shed their skins an emerge as full-grown locusts with black bodies, bright red biow eyes, legs and wings.

The first drunk on the new 3 2 bser appeared before^Judge Watfon in municipal court Monday morning. As the Legislature insisted that the 3.2 beer is not intoxicating and many good (?) church members likewise aver the same thing, the culprit wt o was wobbly, insisted in court that Ie had drank but two glasses of the suds but this didn’t matter with the judge who said ,,this court doesn’t care whether a .person has been drinking 3.2 beer,.home brew, liquor or something else, if he is intoxicat ed bring him up here and I will take care of him.” Judge Watson also instructed' the policeto beanthelookoutfordriv- ers of cars that appeared to be in-, toxieated and thus endangered the lives of other people and if they look ed suspicious to give them plenty of tests to prove they were not intoxi cated —Union Republican.

Just a few days before President Hoover went out'of office, he did President elect Roosevelt the court" esy of asking, him to be present at a conference on the payment of the European war debts' Roosevelt attended the confer ence but on'leaving stuck out' his chest and informed a waiting world that "it is not my baby” and re fused to offer any suggestion or have anything further to do with any conference As it happened while the ‘‘baby.” was at that time in- possession rof Hoover iLwris really not his "baby” or the baby of the Republican party. This "baby” was born during, the wasteful, extravagant administra tion of Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D - Roosevelt was a part of that administration. But now that Roosevelt is Pre sident the "baby” has been left on the doorsteps, his doorsteps, of the White House, where it properly be longs and.the world is. waiting to see what Roosevelt is now going to do with his "baby.” - J; This money was loaned to Eu ropean nations, much of if after the armistice was signed and with out any security even as much as an 1. 0 .

But others, both young and old; cannot be so easily mislead. , Vr - The reason M urphy has . never gotten higher, than the'Legislatufe In the politics of this State is be cause he has,never been the type of leader the people of North Carolina wo.uld follow. He has always trained with the liquor crowd, ‘ and there : are' many'.who have ney^f considered him a champion of the rights of the people against the sel fish interests in jh e Legislature. Simmons and Murphy, therefore, have had very Jittle'in' common in the politics of this State. They have -invariably been on the Op^ posite sides of great moral questions.

The depot safe was carried out info the road and hlowu'opeu. but the thiev es were agajp-disappointed, as the safe was empty. Officers from Mocksvilie went to Advance early Thursday morning, and discovered that the car used by the .thieves had been parked behind the Baptist church. Papers from Mr. Bailey’s safe were found where the car was parked. Gloves w ereusedby the roboers so th at. no finger. prints could be secured. There is no clue ag to who-the guilty parties were. B.

Washington—One half of the in come taxpayers are finding out how the other ball haii have been living —and paying the biggest share. Heretofore, the , thousands with incomes of #5 000 and less reported .the largest amount of . total net in come, but paid the smallest propor tion of faxes. ; The “ big fellows” contributed 97 “p&f cent of the total received by the - government—the “‘little fel lows” about 3 per cent. The new higher taxes—destined to be even higher next year— change this. There is an evening up between the big and the little. The rates no w in effect on L932 income are 4 per cent on incomes of 4,000 or less, boosted from 1 per cent on 1931 incomes.-The ex emptions were lowered from $ 500 to $1,500 to J?i.000. for single. Under the proposed tax increase now before congress—asked to help put men back to work—-the 4 per rate would be jumped to 6 for the •‘little fellows” , with incomes of $4,000 and less.

In;Marion, the Baptist, Metho dist and Presbyterian pastors de livered simultaneous Ijroadsides from their pulpits. The effect, it is siid, was ah amazing turning of the tide against the political powers that were backing the piri-m utuel betting program. Meetings to arouse opposition to the law were held in practically all of-the churches of McDowell coiih tv. The res"ult was an aroused and indignant public sentiment' w hich was prepared literally to crush all opposition. Public opinion became so strong in opposition -that the proponents of the racing law themselves saw that a popular vote would be futile —a useless expense—and the board 0: county commissioners was asked to rescind the order calling-the elec tion for June 27 . In compliance with this demand .there was - only one course for the board to pursue, and it lost no'time pursuing it: "' Nothing more heartening than this to the moral forces of North Carolina has happened.intnany long years. The , people of McDowell have demonstrated that there are lengths to which political leaders cannot go with impunity", even in these new, strange tunes. But more important and more encourag ing still, they have demonstrated that people.can take charge and run the affairs of their local government when they really make up. ,their minds to do so, no m atter. how ef ficient and powerful and cunning the political “ ring” may be. If church people and all others who oppose liquor aDd legalized gambling gambling are^prepared to display the same-brand of courage that was shown bv the people, of McDoweJl when their backs were to the wall, it is safe to con Iude that the tide is beginning to turn in North Carolina, and that we shall not see another Legislature sim ilarto tbe one that last sat in Raleigh.- McDowell has unquest ionably pointed the wav to a new deal in legislaturesin this state — Winston-Salem Journal. * Redland News; Misses Georgia Smith and Lillie Dunn were the Thursday guests of Misses Mag dalene and Phyllis Beauchamp- , Mrs. F.

"I heard from a friend of G eneral Arnold that you were to be here,” she wrote. “As soon as possible after yon arrive, come for a talk w ith m e a t 49 Pearl street.” It was a brief and cheerless note. Wbat did it mean? N ight had fallen. He hastened to the address of M rs. Bowlby. He passed a public house, with open doors. At its bar a reveler was singing a mournful love ballad. A moment he listened. It told w hat a man had done “for the love o’ B ar bara Allen.” “Yes, I know, I know all about It,” he whispered as be went on. . Mrs. Bowlby met him w ith a sad face. They sat down together. She was silent. “Is it bad news?” he asked. “It is not good news, - O nr love itory is now in the hands o’ God. I don’t know what will happen, r i l tell jon the whole story.

These fine-gowned, high-bred women, two of whom had children with them, were going to ride com fortably through the w ilderness In tombrels—a kind of two-wheeled cart. Think of that. They were am ong the Indians. They were interested in the look and the chattering of ‘the noble red men,’ The mosquitoes and gnats and black flies were as thick a s ante °n a pnddle of molasses. They were biting through the veils and sleeves Md stockings of the women and get- tlDS to their necks and w rists. They had expected a sylvan paradise. They had found purgatory. The . children were crying with pain. It w as an Itching, swollen, bloody, w retched Poup.

D riven aw ay by the w ar scare he had been w orking the. big river tow ns In which m aby rich New Y orkers bad sought refuge. H e told M rs. Bowlby. th a t she would soon be going aw ay on a^perilous and im portant mission. J t- would be suc cessful.': Colin w as interested. H e gave the date and hour of his birth. Soon the fortune-teller m ade'this confident and astonishing declaration: “You have a ^sweetheart whose -life Is In peril.

As Amos used to say ’you hear to me.’ “Affectionately yours, •‘M artha W ashington.” W ith Burgoyne encom passed in a hopeless pocket and Howe held below, the H ighlands, in. the south, by the strategy of W ashington, General G ates arrived in Albany. The harvest" was ripe and aided by his influence in congress. G ates was to be the reaper. The blond, handsome, polite Schuyler, whom he had displaced, offered, h ip w hat assistance he could reader, but w as not invited; to his council. - ^ v Early in Septem ber Arnold’s forc^ 1 began a silent, dogged m arch north w ard to Join G ates’ arm y on the up per Hudson. They parsed through half-burned ruined villages w ith many houses partly torn down for firewood. Colin now enjoyed the confidence and friendship of A rn o ld .T h e ; dark- skinned fighting m an . showed the young colonel; a 'dispatch; from W ash ington. In i t w ere these words:: “If I can keep HoWe ; below, the H ighlands I think; their.‘ schemes will be entirely baffled.? “W e don’t' have to w orry about H owe,” said Arnold. ' “The old M as ter has got him hog tied. We’ll break the back of the B ritish. W ith the Highlands, the rivers and’ Lake Cham plain in our possession Canada is Shut off. The French will come to help us. I csrn seeTno hope for th e B ritish when Burgoyne is beaten.” ; 1 ' Colin saw clearly th a t the crisis of the w ar and o f his own personal his1- tory w as now in th e 'n e a r future. ' 'In his account of the'Journey Colin speaks of a slim handsome youth who rode a magnificent bay stallion at Ar nold’s side. “H e has a . slig h t: red mustache* and red hair clubbed and tied w ith ribbons; The getieral calls him Joe Brown.' H e w ears a coat of brown velvet. a buff- w aistcoat tn d w hite breeches. : H is- lmhds 'axe al ways gloved. H e is a splendid.horse man. He' m ust be a person of im portance, for he has an arm ed groom for his horse and a sm all tent of his own. Elvery- night the groom; sleeps ,on .his blanket In front of the te n t. The young m an never speaks. No one has heard his voice. It wondered at th at until the genera) told me th a t he is deaf and dumb— the son of a rich m an who Is paying A rnold's salary. T1T h e boy wishes to see w hat w ar is like,’ said the general. «A serene faith has come to me th at the battle ahead ' Is to find -my trou bles,’-’ Colin .wrote in a letter. “Does It come from the astrologer? No I think not. B ut from some source I get confidence, th at ,-the .Gpd of battles will cover my head - and hers and bring us together.” They arrived a t the big cam p; on Bemis heighte—a ridge of -wooded hills near the'w estern shore of the up per Hudson fortified by Kosciussko with. Intrenchm ents three-quarters of a mile long and redoubts .land batteries commanding the open valley from the w ater’s edge. - Arnold’s- arm y w as on the fa r left of thef line which faced northw ard. , T he B ritish encamped tw o miles aw ay; their left on the river. Qn the nineteenth ,of Septem ber. the B ritlsb right; led by Burgoyne, began to ad vance In -force. Fifes and drums sounded. Soon ; their whole line was pushing forw ard. . The fighting gen eral w as eager to strike' w h ile. they w ere still' In the open valley, knowing th a t they would, try to fight their way around him. A fter long delay the w ord cam e to charge. The extrem e B ritish right was then. In forest-cover. Arnold, In d an g er of being outflanked, threw his force against them. Find ing the enemy too strong to be turned he sent - to G ates for reinforcem ents. They were refused. H e h it the B ritish line with tremendous, vigor. It be- San to m elt before him. W ith re inforcem ents be m ight have cut it -wide open and the battle would have ended then, and there. Reinforce ments cam e too late. F or four hours it was a hand-to-hand struggle with sword, gun, bayonet and saber. Ar nold, with Colin close behind him, led the onset. In .the m idst of smoke and flame and spurting blood he was yell ing. encouragem ent to his men and slashing right Snd left like a demon. Heads were split, faces mangled, legs ■and arm s shattered, breasts, and bellies ripped in this deadly maniacal clash of maddened men. Some w ere skewered by the wounded ‘lying on their backs with the shadow of death upon theft. Spurts of iiame and smoke were bursting out of treetops on the wooded hills from Yankee sharpshooters. Q uite accurately they tallied the fall of B ritish officers. D arkness cam e upon these friends of Death and put an end to the bloody encounter. Through th at night wolves attracted by the sm ell of blood were howling in the forest. ; CHAPTER XIV In the Valley of D eath From W hich Unfortunately a V aliant Figure Em erges and A nother Disappears. Sprinkled w ith blood, sore with small wounds, their faces blackened, their- garm ents torn, General Arnold and Colonel Cabot strode w earily into camp. The god of w ar had covered them in the day of battle. The val iant, the fearless- and the m asterful have a m iraculous gift in passing through the dark valley. D eath would seem to love best those who are afraid. The men began cheering. Praise of Arnold’s valor w as running through the line. General G ates w as jealous, Arnold was growling w ith anger a t the . neglect which had prevented a complete victory. E ager to continue the fight a t sunrise, he was forbidden to do so. There were high words be tween the two generals. A rnold was denied any further p art in the battle and under oflicers were commanded to disregard his .orders, Arnold’s con duct w as undoubtedly high-handed and exasperating. .H e refused to give up his command' and threatened any man who tried to take it into action. Thus jealousy and b itter politics had begun to paralyze the arm y, Burgoyne’s force w as in a bad way. It had failed. M any of its best offi cers w ere dead or . wounded. The fickle-Indians decim ated by M organ’s sharpshooters had found the w hite man’s love too costly and too painfuL -Ihey w ere deserting.

W hy didn’t Howe come on w ith his arm y? H e w as not even yet thundering to get through away, down In the H ighlands of the low er Hudson. Burgoyne retreated, w aiting for the help th at could not reach him. G ates followed and surrounded him. In this tim e of waiting, a-m essen ger brought a letter to Colin C abot It w as from Bachel Bowlby. It said: -"I am in D octor Parm ly’s camp.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Economic and Monetary Conference Opens in London— Illinois and Indiana for Prohibition Repeal— Varied Doings in Congress. B y E D W A R D W . P IC K A R D / V y L SDCTY-SIX nations were represented by some of their best financial and economic authorities when King George formally opened the world . n flj—^ ? economic and mone- ; tary conference in \ London. It was a Zv > .T momentous occasion, for on the results ob tained from the con ference . depends In great m easure the w elfare of the world, a t least in the immedi ate future. The dele gates will be in ses- a „ . sion for many V eeks.R. W. Morrison an() the success of their deliberations rests on the mu tual concessions th at may be made, for no one nation or group of nations can expect to obtain only advantages. M ost vital of the problems to be tackled is adm ittedly the stabilization of currencies, whrch involves the re turn of all nations to the go!# stand ard or a t least to a metallic stand a rd ; and this return m ust be a syn chronous movement so that all coun tries will be on the same level a t all times. In the debate on this question leading parts will be taken by Senator Key Pittm an of Nevada and Ralph W. Morrison, retired banker of Texas, the members of the American delegation to whom the monetary problem was especially given for form ulation of the policy of the United States. Senator Pittm an before the confer ence opened told something of a plan he had devised by which the nations could use silver as a certain percent age of their currency reserves, there by economizing on gold and stabilizing the, price of silver. H e insisted this would not constitute bimetallism ,as gold would still be the standard. The rations appear to be In agreem ent, Mr. Pittm an said, that the currency reserve of gold should be lowered be low the 40 per cent now required. In the United .States. Twenty-five per cent gold coverage w as mentioned for purposes of illustration by the sen ator, who said that one-fifth of this reserve. should be silver. W hen the price of silver w as low the governments would buy and main tain reserves of the metal, which they could sell when the price was up, the senator said. The other m ajor aims of the con ference are the raising of the world price level, and the lowering of Inter national trade barriers. Of course the three are inextricably intertw ined, and they affect all, other problenm that will come up. Back of it all is the m atter of the ten billions odd owed by Buropean nations to the United States. W ar debts were excluded from the agenda by W ashington, but they will be continually in the minds of many of the delegates and eventu ally something m ust be done about them. ILLINOIS and Indiana by popular vote added themselves to the list of states that assure their ratifica tion of the amendment repealing pro hibition. In the form er state the vote w as about 4 to I In favor of' the wets, and the Hoosiers voted for repeal by approximately 2 to I. There had been no doubt as to the result In Illinois, but Indiana, long one of the driest of states and the very center of the Anti- Saloon league's pow erjw as counted on by the prohibitionists to stand against ratification. One of their- leaders, L. E. York, explained their defeat by saying: “The repralists had ample funds supplied by the breweries and distil lers and the state organization had paid workers a t the polls.” Sen. H arrison DEMOCRATIC revolt against some of President Roosevelt’s meas ures created discord in both the house and the senate and the ad m inistration’s program for national recovery was not having a smooth road. The first upset had been the senate's action in voting a 25 per .cent limitation on reductions In compensa tion payments to w ar veterans, which added about $170,006,000 to the inde pendent offices appropriation bill be fore it w as sent to conference. Mr. R oosevelt accepting his first d efeat sought peace by compromise. At his direction new regulations were pre pared governing the payments to dis abled w ar veterans and to the de pendents of deceased soldiers, under which the veterans would receive an additional $50,000,000 or $60,000,000 over th at which was contemplated in the President’s original orders. ‘The reduction in paym ents under the new orders would be about $400,- 000,000 instead of the $450,000,000 originally contemplated. The vet erans' bloc in congress was not a t all enthusiastic 'over this compromise. CYRUS H K.

The backbone of the H arrison pro gram, which is-c al- . culated to raise $227,- 000,000, is a capital stock tax of one-tenth of I per cent on the net w orth of corpora tions.' This tax is ex pected to. raise $80,- 000,000. Corporations are to be allowed to declare their own valuation; and as check on this provision a penalty tax is provided of 5 per cent on surplus profits o f m ore than 12 % per c en t ■} Second feature of the H arrison pro gram is the im position in lieu of nor m al tax rates levied on the individual as the house bill contemplated, of a 5 . per cent tax on corporatidn dividends to be levied a t the source. This is ex pected to bring in $73,000,000.

WHY th e government should have paid Richard B. BeVier $1.40 apiece for 200,000 toilet kits for men in the conservation corps—a price that the W ar departm ent said was 55 cents too high—was a question th at the senate mili tary com m ittee found bard to answ er. Louis M cHenry Howe, sec retary to the Presi dent, talked with Be-' Vier 15 minutes be fore the signing of the contract by Rob ert F eehner,,, director of the conservation corps, but Mr. Hotve told the commit tee he never directly o r indirectly at tem pted to influence any decision as to the purchase.

'M'-'- -i-- FOR some tim e now a m istaken no tion of family control has afflicted I the world, especially th a t part o f it which these United States cover. W e have alw ays wanted, to . give children everything possible to m ake them suc cessful. No children have ever been given'the freedom .that ouys.bave en joyed. r It Is this freedom th at I w ant to talk ' ab o u t Nobody born on this earth is, or can b e ,. free. Everyone of us Is- born tied hand and foot to other peo ple, to circum stances and under laws th at bind ' us securely. Nobody, no pow er on earth can free us of duties and obligations and burdens. M any m istaken parents and teachers have tried to free children of* these obliga tions of life. The result is hard on the children. It is far kinder to teach a child Thow to carry a responsibility than it is to teach him to deny it and then have him come face to face w ith i t it is like sending him out to slay lions w ithout even a sling shot and a handful of pebbles.. The. only freedom we pan ,hope to give a child is freedom from ignorance. . T he first step he takes tow urd that freedom is when be learns to carry the first responsibility. Children m ust be taught to endure cheerfully and bravely w hatever pain comes their way. The unm annered child is too com mon to need emphasis. It is he who rides roughshod over all who come in bis way, He is Iopd1 disrespectful, selfish and utterly disliked. Somebody thought it a pity to curb his self-ex pression and so he lost his way. The spoiled boy who insists upon driving the fam ily car and staying out all hours of the nigfit needs no introduc tion. W e are all well acquainted with him. The young girl who entertains boys in the evenings, sm okes cigarettes end to end, and insists that she has her school work well in band, is a common thorn. AU these children are the victim s of this m istaken freedom. If children could re a r them selves there would be no need.for fath er or m others to live longer than the few years necessary to bring the children into being! N ature would attend to th a t As a m atter o f hard fact the infancy of the hum an offspring is the • m ost prolonged in nature. T hat means th at parents are needed. , : -. It would be a very good thing fo r; the children ;of this generation to learh th at there is a larger freedom to be . won than th at so easily gained by do ing nothing, worthw hile. They will discover this when w e learn when “ A P O L O G I Z E A T O N C E ” PR ESID EN T SIG N S JOB SERVICE ACT CtT AM having trouble with Ralph.

Those were the days when the famous Yankee clipper ships were carrying our flag, the Stars and Stripes, into virtually every port of the world and when America, rather than Great Bri tain, was the “mistress of the seas." at least, so far as merchant was concerned. But wheD steamships replaced sailing vessels, He United States began to lose her place In the son In this regard and the CSvil war saw the end o( our dominance of the seas with merchant men. In the years that followed various efforts were made to regain the place we had lost to other nations, but these efforts were not highly successful. At the opening of the World war we lad only 17 ships carrying the American flag aid American trade to foreign ports, and Amer ican seamanship, as a consequence, had almost became a forgotten tradition. But recent years have seen a change being wrought, and today, under more recent stimulat ing governmental policies supporting our “peace time navy," the merchant marine, we have climbed up to second place In world tonnage and now a total of 600 ships plow their way - through the seven seas to more than 500 ports In foreign lands. To provide for the increased complement of trained desk officers and engineers to man our constantly increasing peacetime navy. Uncle Sam has four nautical training schools, mostly aboard real ships, where boys can study, grad ate and stand a good chance of becoming third officers or assistant engineers in the merchant Ieet at a rate of pay ranging from $125 a month lor third mates upwards to $300 ifor skippers and engineers, and with cruises to interesting for eign ports sprinkled in while they are getting tbeir education. Tbese nautical schools are: The New York State Merchant Marine academy, now based at Brooklyn navy yard aboard the tJ. S. S. Empire State and the Annex; the Pennsylvania Mnticai school, based at Philadelphia, aboard •”e 0. S. S. Annapolis; the Massachusetts Nau tical school, based at Boston, aboard the TJ. S.

Although boys Join the academ y for training to fit them for captaincy or engineershlp, they have their ow n'choice of the branch preferred.'

It is the de sign and reason for Uie existence of these four nautical training schools. • > Dncle Sam has to battle -for his peace tim e - and w ar rights. Ships m ust carry commerce, pas sengers, m ails to every country. Commanders and chief engineers o f these ships m ust be level- .. S h o o t i n g t h e S u n ” w i t h S e x t a n t s headed and well-trained. For this reason, it waa, pointed out; unusual care is exercised In se lecting m erchant m arine academy candidates. Boys m ust be United States citizens, have high school education or its equivalent, be phys ically, m entally, morally sound as a new dollar and m ust have the qualities that make for lead ership—courtesy, prom ptness In obeying com m ands and correct seam anllke habits. The wheel and chart house come next for In spection. ..In the afternoon sun the compass, steering apparatus, engine, room telegraph and other bright work gleamed and'glinted from el bow-greased high polish. It w as exactly like any other American m erchantm an’s bridge except th a t there were two large, long tables extending the. w idth of ’the .enclosed space, upon which ca dets,' studying navigation while bn sum m er cruise, work out the ship's course. A huge flag locker w as located nearby, bulging w ith neatly rolled multi-colored bunting. Atop the bridge was the diamond shaped radio direction finder loop, open air binnacle and steering wheel. Nine tim es out of ten the U. S. S. Em pire S tate is steered from the enclosed bridge, or . the flying, bridge by a helmsman, generally a quarterm aster. B ut C aptain Green w ent below and pointed out the line of steering apparatus to a room fa r astern in the ship, w here the rudder tiller is swung by autom atic devices and w here cadets are instructed, a t tim es, in blind steering. A bridge lookout m ay be the eyes of the ship, on such occasions, but cadets are taught to navigate safely by using'inside compass and wheel. s The engine room, deep in the bowels of the vessel, w as fragrant w ith hot oils. H ere a maze of shining iron ladders wind up, around and about the powerful driving equipm ent of the training ship. All brightw ork w as spotless and the ship could cast off on short notice, for steam Is kept up in the boilers m ost of the time. In tricacies of this departm ent prohibit elaborate description. It is a.w orld of m achinery in Itself . . . the pride of engineers' who undergo exhaus tive Instruction and training aship and. ashore and who are charged-w ith the mechanical wel fare of their vessel. It is interesting to note that, In m ost cases, the captain and chief engineer of a ship hold nearly equal rank. Both w ear four gold stripes. They are associates In command, although In the last analysis, the captain’s word is supreme, The cadets have an abundance o f recreation. M any are am ateur musicians,, have their instru m ents aboard and make use of the ship’s piano. A nd when some one tears off a large am ount of “In the Evening by the Moonlight” a flood of “barber , shop harm ony generally haunts the. ship. C aptain Green pointed out a num ber of ca dets engaged In infantry drill on the concrete docks below. This gives them a taste of mili tary activity.. Such m ilitary schooling w ill aiuto- ■ m atically entitle cadets to become members of the naval reserve. Cadet instructors are capable, efficient and painstaking In their work. F or them special ' training is required. The skipper said th a t sev eral had taken not. one but-num erous Instruc tion courses. A num ber of them are graduates of the New T ork M erchant M arine academy, preferring teaching to life;- aboard ship w here they start In as third class officers. , Over sandwiches, cakes and orange pekoe in the captain’s quarters plans' for sum m er were explained. - “W e will have our regular training cruise,” said the skipper, a tw inkle of anticipation In 'his -eyes, adding.that “w e-expect to shove off some Hme In June, take,'in a bit of the A tlantic for cruising purposes and touch a t several European .ports.” . These cruises are duck soup for cadets. The (K>ys get their fingers into navigation and. en gineering and, In addition, see the world first hand.

(£) by Western Newspaper UstoiL . Western Sections Grow Gh^ap Hops Competition Drove Industry From New York State, ' Professor Says. By Prof. H. H. Whetzel, New Tork State College of Agriculture.—WiITJ Service. W estern competition drove hops from New Tork state and will con tinue to hinder the empire; state hop yards. The decline In the New York acreage from 1S89 to .1909 w as from 27,532 acres to 12,023 acres, .while the gain in-Oregon w as from 15,433 acres to 21,770 and In California from 6,890 to 8,391 acres. The main reason for the westw ard trek -was that while New York growers harvested 638 pounds of hops to the acre, California growers harvested 1,361 pounds, W ashington 1,474 pounds, and Oregon 674 pounds. Nearly ■ 26,000,000 pounds of hops were grown In the United -States in 1932, enough for the brewing of 40,- 00,000 barrels of beer.” Exports In, 1910 w ere; nearly 8,000,000 pounds; from 1925 to 1929, 12,000,000 pounds, on the average; and In 1930, the exports de creased to. six and a half million pounds. In the meanwhile English and continental growers have increased their plantings. It is a question, if for eign m arkets are closed, w hether do mestic hop consumption can absorb the U nited States' crop at paying prices. ■' Some New York grow ers who know the hop growing business, who have good land, and get high yields may m ake profits. The Inexperienced grow er needs to learn how to grow hops, to choose varieties, control diseases, grow quality crops, and know the m arket The first cost In hop growing Is for roots. Since the roots are propagated by cuttings, and each cutting yields about the sam e as Its parent, some as surance is needed that th"e roots are from high-yielding plants. Yields from Individual vines may vary from a half pound to eighteen pounds of hips. No crop would be harvested the first sea son, a partial crop the second season, and the first full crop would be har vested In 1935 from this year’s plant ings. . New York state grow ers are fam iliar w ith powdery mildew, or blue mold, which form erly attacked the crop and which can be controlled. Newer plant ings will probably be attacked by an other miidew which does more damage and Is more difficult to control than powdery mildew. The newer, downy mildew has long troubled European grow ers and was found In New York state In 1928. California growers have comparatively little damage from ,the downy type. ' T TO MAKE HENS LAY IN SUMMER SEASON Soybeans Will Help; Grown at Small Cost “If every farm er could have just the hay he wanted,, he would have his mows filled with alfalfa. Next to al falfa he would choose clover. B ut when good clover or alfalfa, acreage Is not sufficient, he m ust select those crops that will give the m ost good feed to the acre a t the least expense.” This is the way George Briggs, of the W isconsin state college of agricul-' ture, views the 1933 feed crops situa tion. H e Is BUggestingi th a t soybeans, because they are about equal to alfal fa, will likely give much of this good feed this year and a t small expense. - Briggs regards the soybean as a dou ble purpose crop. It can be used as a “pinch hitter” when alfalfa fails as a field or In spots; and is oftentim es used after an early crop of peas.or after an early crop'of hay has been harvested. Briggs considers the soybean crop a convenient one-to handle because a good grade of hay can be made from It a t alm ost any tim e in its growth. Soy bean hay is bandied like any other hay crop, with mower, side delivery rake, and hay loader. Because the best soybean hay is made when the crop Is planted alone, Its m ixture with oats, Sudan grass, or millet are recommended only where there Is some uncertainty about the soybean crop.—W isconsin Agricultur ist. StripFarming In one district In Saskatchew an a change In methods seemed necessary to combat soil drifting. A better farm ing society took the m atter Into 'con sideration and acting on advice from the fields crop branch of the depart m ent of agriculture, decided to try strip farming, a method th at did not involve the purchase of any machin ery, or any great expense. • L ast sea son there were about 2,500- acres of light land, planted In strips. Those who practiced the plan on thin stubble fields, were able to produce.a crop for th e .first tim e In four years. Those who have adopted strip farm ing are going to continue, and others who <Ud not strip their lands last ye'ar are quite willing to try It this year. It will only be a m atter of a few years until all of this light land will be farm ed In that way.—M ontreal Herald. Wet Mash Suggested by a New York-College Man. ' H the poultry flock lays few eggs In late summer, feed a wet mash, ad vises L. M- Hurd of the New York State College of Agriculture. When skimmilk Is available, use it to wet the regular mash, or use semisolid but term ilk a t the rate of two pounds to the hundred. The crumbly wet mash may be fed late in the ;afternoon, just before the night grain feeding. The hens should have only what they can eat In tw enty minutes. Another plan is useful when no milk is available. Fill a pail one-half full of dry. oats and then fill to the top w ith w ater. Let the oats stand from one afternoon to the next and add enough of the regular dry mash to absorb the remaining moisture. Feed the same am ount and a t the same tim e as the milk mash. W et m ash feeding usually begins In late July or A ugust M r.’ Hurd sug gests: No change in quarters-or in feed form ula; provide an abundance of tender green food; have fresh wa ter a t all tim es; furnish shade; and do not allow red mites to attack the flock. He also suggests adding two pounds of tobacco dust to each one hundred pounds of mash to-aid In con trolling worms and coccidiosis, which are thought to contribute, to paralysis. The tobacco dust should be guaran teed to contain I per cent nicotine sulphate. Garden ToolsNeeded Cultivation In the -garden of 1,000 , square feet or less can be ■ accom plished easily with the garden rake and hoe. .,For gardens up to 10,000 square feet, the wheel hoe is a desirable tool. For larger gardens, a one-horse culti vator, equipped w ith small shSvels to prevent excessive ridging, is very- sat-' isfactory. Garden tractors with cul tivator attachm ents are used to a con siderable extent where horse power Is not available.- The large, farm garden can be worked with regular equipm ent Hen’s Offspring Best - Indicator bf Ability A hen may be a good egg, layer, but that Is no guaranty that her daughters will be good layers, even when she Is mated with a sire whose female parent w as a heavy layer, a three-year experim ent by the United States De partm ent of A griculture indicates. Progeny testing—that is, the testing of the laying ability—of a hen’s daugh ters Is the most reliable guide to th at hen's ability to produce good layers, the departm ent found. The common practice of attem pting to Improve egg production by selecting breeding stock on the basis of egg production cannot. be depended upon to bring the desired results, the experiment, made by Dr. Morley A. Jull1 departm ent poultry specialist, shows. The departm ent tested 793 singie- comb W hite Leghorn hens, the daugh ters of 19 selected sires and 135 selected dams, at its animal husbandry experim ent ’farm at Beltsville, Md. The tests showed: That the egg pro duction of a sire’s dam had little sig -. nificance In determining his ability to produce good progeny; that a given sire mated to a given dam may pro duce good progeny, but that the same sire mated to another dam may pro duce poor progeny; that the same was true for differing sires and a given ' dam ; that fu ll. sisters mated to the same sire frequently produced diverse results; that the average egg produc tion of a group of full sisters could n o t, be used as a basis for judging any" one of the sisters for breeding possibilities. Lice op Poultry Lice do not feed on blood like red mites but eat dried skin or bits of feather, w rites a correspondent In tho Indiana Farm er’s Guide. They may eat blood from small skin wounds but do not suck the blood fike red mites. The lice are constantly crawling over the skin both day and night and cause much discomfort to the hens. Hens are nervous sensitive birds and prob ably suffer more from lice than is com monly realized. Eggs Must Be Eggs Eggs, it seems, just have to be eggs In C onnecticut under a bill passed In the house of the general assembly. Under the term s of the m easure eggs must be designated as “fresh eggs,” “cold storage eggs,” “preserved eggs” or “Incubated eggs.” However, the bill adds, I? an egg does not conform to any of these classifications, but still Is wholesome and edible, it may be designated merely as "egg.” P o u l t r y G l e a n i n g s Ohio ranks fourth In poultry produc tion with 24,954,000 chickens. • * Pulleis lay about 20 per cent more eggs a year tbais do yearling hens.

Extravagance That Should Be Curbed Senator Walsh, of Montana, who was to be the Attorney General in the Roosevelt Gabinet .vent to Cuba a few days before the inauguration and married’ who was reported to be a wealthy Cubah widow. While en route to Washington and after being married but five dars W alstdied on a train near Rocky Mount. N. And now a bill is before C ingress to give this allegedly wealthy five-day wedded widow of Walsh, $10,000, the amount of a year’s salary in the Senate although Walsh was about to retire from that bodv when he died. This paying of widows Congress men and even surviving relatives of clerks laborers, etc . who held office at the Capitol is a disgrace and should be stopped, In commenting on the proposed payment to Walsh’s widow. Com mentator R R Clark, says: “The voting of a gift of $10,000 to widows whose husbands die while serving In Congress is but one form of extravagance adopted in the re cent period of inflated extravagance. There is no sound excuse for it. Ttiereisno virtuein the claim that death occured while they were :in service. In such event Congress pays the burial expenses, presuma bly, which is more than enough It would be a good ■ time now, while some of the unwarranted spending is being cut oft. to cut off a practice that is questionable morally, if not legally- The whole business should go and at once.” Congress not only with a. lavish hand doles out the money of the tax payers to these widows but even goes beyond this and only a year or so ago voted a $5,000 a year pen sion to the wealthy widow of Wood row Wilson and establish another dangerous precedent by voting an annual pension of $5,000- to the widow of the late Vice. President Thomas R. Marshall. If these Con gressmen had the money to pay out of their own pockets they wouldn’t be quite so liberal in handing out these doles —Yadkin Ripple. Lo, The Poor Raleigh Office Holders. Since the beer tax is yielding con siderable revenue and other revenue is boginning to come into Raleigh from different industry for taxes as sessed by the last legislature,. State Treasurer Johnson has alreaey an nounced that he favors'a restoration ' counties that moved Vhe lower to the old salaty scale in vogue fori’Houseof the Nortu Carolina Legts-. state employes before the budget J lature to iuitiate measures calculat- commission made the cut. Just why J ed to keep - this marriage business these Raleigh parasites should be “at home Weather Predictionsi The U. S. Weather Bureau, which has a language of its own devising,- explains just what it means when it makes its predictions: . ‘'Clear” means no clouds; "fair” means no rain or snow but possibly clouds. “Generally fair” is used only in referring to large areas. It means that there may be a little rain or snow here and there, and aside from a few clouds everything going to be all rurht, but if you’re wear inganew hat it might be a good idea to carry aa,umbrella. “ Partly cloudy” indicates no rain-,, with clouds coming and going hap hazardly. “Increasing cloudiness” means that when you go to work everything’s going to look lovely, but the time you, go home things are going to look pretty dark. “Mos!- Iy cloudy" means that now and then you’ll see the sun if you look up at just the right time ‘ Cloudy” de notes an oxercast sky with no ra n. When you read “unsettlen” you’d better carry an uhbrella, for you can expect an occasional shower. “Threating” means a dark, overcast sty with lowering clouds, but prac tically no rain” is what we common ly refer to as showers. “ Rain” means that just that - “Snow” in dicates a lot of "snow -flurries” can be taken to mean just a little no^ and then. It has become a standing joke that the weather man is always wrong, but a careful check shows that thru-out the whole country the weather forecasts issued average 85 per cent correct. ,That’s pretty good "guessing” anyway. Weak Medicine. While Davidson Gouuty’s iegis-. ter of deeds was issuing only cine licenses during.the month of Mav, the county clerk of H enry'county, Virginia,.iust over the state border line on the popular Shenandoah Valley road route, was able to boast a total of sixty nine issuals. This was the highest number Henry county has ever issued in the month of May, it was added. ■ T h e; news stor.y in which ,ithese... facts appear was published in a .'Winston-Salem paper, and the alert correspondent added that ■ seventeen-of the couples who went to Martinsville were from- Winston-Salen.

It is rank injustice of the worst kind to th e. taxpayers of the state. With the state showing a de ficit at the end of this-.month of nearly fifteen million dollars and un able unable to pay off a single bond, having to borrow money to run the state and pay a high rate of interest it does look like the powers in authority at Raleigh would exercise) a little common sense.

T he substitute evidently is proving to be weak medicine, judging by signs that the old ailment thrives. ...-Dozens of counties in this state will continue to- collect much less the £5 their places and are a sight more competent, at the -salary they are now getting even, yea even less.

Heat suuply will not be ignored, finds The Raleigh Times and then goes into a discussion, Gudmg that the south lives through these ex treme heated terms with as little disastrous results as any section. It is a fact that the soutu seems to fare better and suffers fewer prost rations. With the statement made The Times goes on in suggestion that we live through the heat, discussing it, if we roust, ft savs: "The pat but ignoraht explanat ion might be that the ‘Sunny South’ is so used to higb temperatures as to have become immunized, but any weather bureau man will gladly show you that in the matter of heat southern climate generally is apt to be relatively as mild as it is with respect to cold Northeastern and m'idwestern states that know zero weather as a' commonplace in win ter are apt to register summer alti tudes on the thermometer that lay over any phenomenon the south may offer. That holds in the cur rent excitement. But even when it happens that the temperatures in those places where the morgues and hospitals are 6Ped with victims are lower than those obtaining in the south, the south with more heat, takes it ouc in cussing and refuses to consider the discomfort a serious enough thing to call for a resort to death.

It has also met and conqured a worse eaemy .than the depression- ^ur.- beliefj According to news reports, the church is still the nation’s great est “going concern.” At a time when institutions foundr ed for material purposes were falling by the wayside during “hard times.” the statistics show that churches and. religions bodies gained 929,259 mem bers. The total membership of churches in the United States reach ed 50.037,209, with the Baptist Church leading other denominations in gains! The growth in churh mem bership has been greater than growth in population in the country. Finally, the church has fallen only slightly under figures for pre ious years. The per capita contributions for benevolences in 1932 was 3.12 as compared with $3.71 rn 1931. Man’s thoughts are more apt to turn to religion and its solace in hard times than in good. The prodigal son thinks more lovingly of his father and mother when he is in trouble, when he falls on evil times than when, the “goose is hanging high.’- The suffering and unhappiness brought on by the economic crisis has prob ably sent many to seek comfort and consolation from the church. -W ins ton Sentinel.- . Undoubtedly the most famous river in America is the Mississippi!

Suwannee becomes "Swanny” to the child, and he Unconsciously pictures it as a placid lake, set in a beautiful park, in which graceful swans are drifting ’ lazily. That is the impression one gets when : one sees the river, serenity and beauty, With only the swans missing !‘ If you want a good one weird de scription of the river, just ask a 12- year old Georgia county girl to say "Suwannee.” : That’s exactly the kind of a river it is—slow, smooth, delightful, beautiful, and truly Southern. The river rises in the Okefinokee swamp of southern Georgia, and starts its journey in a. small way by being the outlet for Billy’s Lake. But increasesin size.rapidly. since it Js fed by underground springs and rivers T t flows through Floridaand empties into-the Giilf of Mexico.

Will Apply Pressure. - It is estimated that North Caro lina’s allotment from the $400,000,- jOOO which will he distributed for toad building from the $3,300,00,000 public works fund to be provided by the government, will be $15,399 584, or. about that. . Already delegations are being lined up to pursue the highway commission for a liberal Jsortion of the same. Before it is .Aver road and bridge projects to the amount of two-three tunes the a mount will be asked for. The ideal way for the distribution of the moh- fy would be for the highway com mission to allot it, after careful ex amination, according to need and with reference, to previous appor- ments. Pressure results in unfair apportionments. Some sections do Tjot get what is coming to them for the obvious reason that other sec tions are in position to apply more pressure. But sinee all. distribu tors of public benefits are amenable to persuasion, pressure, and it is im possible to keep the insistent from pTging their claims, the distribution will, as usual, be much according to urge, notwithstanding the highway .commission may endeavor to, serve 'first the sections that have least.

To make the industrial recovery act do what it is aimed to accomp lish, som€rather fantastic and uni que schemes may be put into practi cal operation. What has always beer- regarded as wisdom may suddenly be found to foolishness and that which is to be done may bave the appearance of idiocy and yet turn out to be the acme of rational ae tion. . Take the matter, for example, of cotton, with which subjects the South is more at home than some others. This act gives the depart ment of agriculture the autnority tr control cotton, both in - its produc tion and manufacturing phases. If the South will not voluntarily arrange its cotton,field to satisfy economic demands, the government will step in a take a band. : Just now too much acreage has been planted! That is obvious to those who. study world Conditions, who know- whal the piled-up surplusages of the part few years amounts to,, and who understands that unless something can be done .about decreasing the supply, it will be virtually impos sible for any power under the divine to bring the price of this commodity to where it ought to be. Hence, the government proposes to do something about this matter of excessive acreage. One of the plans discussed, as siily as it may seem, is for the government to lease about 30 per cent of the farms now given over to the cultivation of cot ton, pay the farmers what it will be assessed as worth, and then plow up the cotton. , Another scheme is to hold -out to the cotton-farmer the option of a S r ^ W a f i S Tt0rXi u^ erI v - H d oubled wa- thd h u n i d r ^ ! ^ mere accident seems a!- otherwise produce, its equivalent, in cotton already raised and ginned and sold, now. in the possession' of the United States government. The' government would be quite glad to offer a premium in the form of old cotton to the farmer who will right now agree either.to get. fid of a large part of this ipresent acreage by destruction of the growing crop or by abandoning it to weeds, boll weevils or whatever nature, or the moods of the season may be able to design. The one purpose is to reduce the probable output of the South’s cot ton fields this year to the end that the price of- this staple may be brought up to a party with other commodies and that all other com- modies may be pegged at a standar dized prlce-leve) commensurate with all other costs. Au innovation, to be sure—.more than that—the most radical reversal in our conceptions of government in its relation to the .citizen that has ever occured in all American history. And, if it works, the greatest re formation.—Charlotte Observer.

The Democratsin this state who lave been claiming to be dry and se cretly hoping the wet issue would prevail are getting frightened over the possible results that may come 'ater as a result of the way they have oeen handling the repeal question. Some days ago Walter Murphy, acknowledged leader of the wets in Washington and he and Johnston A- /ery. secretary to the wet Bob Rey- iolds called on Post Master General lames A. Farley, another dripping vet and Chairman of the National Democratic Executive Committee rod the result of their interview was oroadcast all over the country, Av ery being quoted as. telling Farlev :hat the wet forces needed “cash” •o carry on the campaign in North Carolina for the repeal of the 18th amendment.. Murphy, came back to North Carolina and with his chest stuck out did not deny the fact that oe was Farley’s spokesman in this state until the church people and the women began to talk about Farley interfering with elections in North Carolina and then it was that Mur phy who was defeated for the Legis- .1 tture in Rowan county by the aged Republican patriarch, William Cal vin Rose, began to back and fill and has finally denied that he is the North Carolina spokesman for Far ley. Well who is Farley’s spokes man Mr. Murphy, the public would like to know? Several of the Democratic news papers who supported Roosevelt with his Farley attachments are getting; uneasy for fear the wet and dry cam • paign in the state this year^will hurt the party. - AU ll.of the North Ca rolina Cjngres3men and Senator _Bgi!ey^r[gon3tbfc are trying^tbrsifiestep the. issue but they will be drawn-.in: the fight and will be drawn in the fight and will be drawn in the fight and will have to declare themselves. The people of North Carolina are going to demand to know where their Repreie.ita'iyes stand on this question. The Concord Tribune and ardent supporter of Al Smith in 1932, but pretending to be dry. sounds a note of warning to the wet Catholic Post Master Ceneral to stay out of North Carolina in the following: “We hope Post Master General Farley won’t come into the State with any repeal drive. He says the matter will be left with the peop’e of the State and if he will stick to that decision, then much embarrass ment will be avoided. The people of North Carolina are fully 'capable of making up. their minds on this is sue, and wouldn’t do any good for anybody concerned for Farley to try to dictate-ihatters. This is a local fight insofar as creating sentiment is concerned, and it could easily de velop embarrassing ramifications if the patronage dispensers of the Roosevelt regime should take a hand in the case.” But Farley is hot going to stay a— way from North Carolina, neither is he. despite his protestations to the contrary, going to stav out of this fight Rightnow he is booked to make a speech in Greensboro, July 6, ostensibly to dedicate the new post office building there but make our words there will be plenty of secret conferences and Msjor Walter Mur phy will be one of the main sidekicks at the show as well as other wetiead- ers in the state.—Union Republican.

President Roosevelt has saved the country and left on a summer vacation. It will be a Jong time oe fore some of our citizens will forget one thing Mr. Roosevelt did since becoming chief Executive. If North Carolina cuts her cotton acreage 460,000 acres this year perhaps the children will be able to attend at least six mouths of the eight months school that was forced on this state by the last Legislature. The Hon. Newton Baker was in Asheville last week and gave out the amazing statement that North Caroliua would vote wet in Novem ber How does Mr Baker know how North Carolina is going in November? ________ Senator Bob Reynolds is going to stump the state for-liquor. Ben ator Josigh Bailey says he will keep his month shut on this liquor busi ness. We are not surprised at Bob’s stand, but are amazed at the stand Josigh is taking. Any man who can make a living for 40 years runing a country news paper, deserves as much credit as the fellow who can close all the banks in one day, but not as much; as the fellow who can open all the banks in a week. We don’t know how the editor of the North Carolina Christian Advocate voted last November, but if he voted for Roosevelt he owes that gentleman an apology for the awful article he wrote against liquor in the issue of June 15th The blackberry crop is ripe in Davie, but. we are finding it almost impossible to collect enough cash to buy the sweetening for a few pies So far as getting any jelly or jam, that is out of the question without some of the hundreds who are owing us will send or bring in a few frog skins.

Holding Cotton Meet' ings. ■ Professor L. H. Angell teacher of vocational.,agriculture in the Mocks ville school, Mr A. L. Teachy' of Raleigh,district.supervisor of vo cational agriculture and Mr R. W. Kurfees well known farmer of near Cooleemee, are devoting this week to holding educational meetings at various points in the county ac quainting the,cotton growers of the new “ Bonus plan” of reduced acre age. U nderthenew planasspon sored by the United States govern tuent all cotton growers who sign a contract to plough up not less than 25 per cent aud not more than 40 per cent of . their acreage will be paid at the rate of six cents per pound-for the first hundred pounds and given an optiuro on the prob able yeild in case the selling price is above six cents then the grower be ; Daid this additional Blalock On Cotton Acreage Reduction. ‘ He ’cashes ini on a part of his crop at a time when the average cotton farmer has nothing- to sell and no money in bank or pocket. - “ The producer is allowed to plant the abandoned acres in late corn, forage crops, or any other kind of crop for home consumption and the Southern farmer rarely ever has an overprodu .tion of feed crops.” Mr. Blalock who has spent con siderable time in Washington re cently conferring with those in charge of the cotton acreage re duction division, has contended from the beginning that to ber-suc- cessful any acreage reduction plan would have to offer greater advant ages to the producers who cooper ate than to those who do not co operate. Answeringthe question “ What are the reasons for the adoption of this very drastic method for cotton acreage reduction?’’ Mr. Blalock said: “ We are suffering from a- heavy overproduction of cotton and are going into the new year with the largest carryover oi American cot ton ever known, approximately 13.• 000,000 bales, or almost a year’s supply. To get this annua! carry over down to a normal basis of four or five million bales through a pol icy of' ‘letting naturetakeits course’, would mean that within three or four years under the workings of the unhampered law of supply and demand this goal might be reached, but it wonld mean our continuing the production of cotton under un profitable price levels in the mean time."

B efore th e second battle, Colln had received an order from G eneral W ash ington w ritten a t the fifteenth mile stone on the Skippack road . In Penn-v sylvanla, directing him' a t the end of the Saratoga cam paign to -get a dis charge from G eneral G ates and pro ceed w ith his regim ent by a route known to Sergeant Sapp; the bearer, to general headquarters. Colin, still In bed, ordered his men to prepare for the Journey and to set out the neat day. H e Imm ediately sent a letter by. post to Rachel Bowlby telling her of the order and m apping the route and destination. This to m ake sure that P at would know w here to find him. He expected to be able to follow and overtake the regim ent In a day or tw o;but the young man w as detained, in the hospital more than two weeks a fte r his m en had gone. A lingering w eakness from the loss of blood kept him in bed. - The day of his discharge he headed for Albany in the saddle. A rriving there he found Mrs. Bowlby. He learned that P at and the Lady Ack- Iand with their horses and an escort of four men had set out on a south bound ship a few days before. They w ere to leave the ship about sixty m iles below Albany and start west w ard In the saddle to intercept Colin’s regim ent on its way to W ashington’s headquarters. H er ladyship had a perm it from G ates to go south with , the troops and join friends In Phila delphia. Colin’s m are had been wounded In.a foreleg in the last battle and was unfit for a long journey. M oreover, he had not enough money to ' buy a good horse. Mrs. Bowlby w as a poor wom an with children depending on her. He could not accept her help even If she w ere able to offer it; the m aster ful woman, alw ays prepared for em er gencies, took command of the situa-. tion. • “You know th at W ashington Is Avith- in tw enty m iles of Philadelphia,” she. said. : “H e Is on the Skippack road.' The map you sent me show s the road. A neighbor of mine here is a cousin of John Pennebecker who runs a mill on Perkiom en creek not ten miles from there. So your best route is the D elaw are river. Take the ship this afternoon down the Hudson. At Kinderhook hire a man to take you across country to the D elaw are. Bny a good canoe, a sm all tent and sail and some provisions.^ Keep moving. You can m ake fifty miles a day with the current and m ore in a fair wind. It’s as much as. a horse, could do. In some places you’ll get a ride on the flatboats. If the B ritish are In Phila delphia, you’ll know it -long before you get there. Leave the river som e w here near Bordentown and go due -West. . .Keep xinorth • olf. 'the- Prankford creek until you cross the Old- York road. T hen cross Jh e Frankford and ybu’ll come to the: W issahickon. The Sklppack road will be near you. Re m em ber there’s to be some delay be fore you m eet PaL W hen you do m eet her you’ll know w hat to do, I guess. F or the Lord’s sake, don’t let her get aw ay from you. I’m alm ost w orn out trying to bring you to gether. T here have been tim es when I wondered w hether the w ar w as for liberty or P at.” CoIin laughed: "I’ve learned better than to disobey your orders.” “Well, there’s some com fort in the thought that you couldn’t get away from her if you tried,” she answ ered w ith a smile. “M other Enslow is happy w ith me and can stay until Pat has a home. I’ll look a fte r the m are.” The young man set out and obeyed her orders alm ost to the letter. In good w eather, with favoring winds, he flung, the m iles behind him and fin ished his river journey in four days. N ear the end of it he cam e upon the giant Ebenezer Snoach with a fleet of bateaux loaded w ith provisions for W ashington’s arm y. H e w as. near a landingw hereteam s w ere to meet him, Colin boarded one of the bateaux and had a brief talk with the old sea-god. “No, the w ar ain’t over—not yet,” said Snoach. “They’ll w rastie with the w inds an’ the waves an’ the wil derness an’ rotten m eat an’ scurvy an’ sm allpox a w hile longer—maybe an’ perhaps. Ye can’t shoot them ene mies er bribe ’em off. T he B ritish is like a big fish th at’s grabbed the hook an’ reeled off a lot o’-lin e... Ye bring him In close an’ aw ay he goes ag’tn. Ye got to tire him out an’ drownd him an’ lift him into the boat an’ wallop him over the head. How-long It’ll take nobody can tell, but If he’s booked solid an’ the line holds ye know he’s got to come soon e r late.” Snoach’s . landing w as near. T here ColIn hired a horse and in the paddle, w ith a farm er to guide him, he set out on the w estw ard journey. They reached the Old. York road where he began to get news. T h e B ritlsb w e re In Philadelphia and G erm antown. , Some miles north of the latter place he cam e upon, the light dragoons of W ashington. They told him that he would find Amos at Percy’s tavern not a mile aw ay. T here he met the re doubtable trooper. His right shoulder w as still In supports and giving him pain. Excused from duty, he had come to an Inn for. the solace to be found In drink. . , . • Colin put the usual question: “How are you?”“Shamed o’ myself,” Amos an swered. “Been real poorly since. S atan fetched m e a cuff which ye know I deserved it if ever a man did. Guess I m ust ’a* done some purty tall talkin’ th a r in th at tree an’ -I ain’t none too good now. If it wasn’t, fer the love o’ God In me I’d git drunk an stay drunk the rest o’ my days—I sw ear I would—Fm th at wore out -with the achln’.” “Yon should.have stayed. In-the hos pital. j_You’re so bound up In the" old regim ent you .cannot let T t-get -away from you." . •- “W hich the fact is, an’ God’s my w itness, I love It an’ our great father. We’ve been through hell with him an’ stuck together^ . . W here It goes I- go an’ w here he goes I go. If Fm bare footed an’ thar’s snow on the ground an’ I know my grave is not a mile ahead. I’m a-goln’.” Amos w as like a faithful dog who suffers-m uch and bravely dies for his m aster. It . was the sp irit of the regl*. ment. In their talk- its men often called the Chief “father” as a way of ln d ic a tin g th e ira ffe c tio n .; ’ “H ave you got o v e r. being anxious for th a t’ charm ing widow?” CoIin -asked. “No, sir. N ot never,” Amos an swered. "I think o’: her frequent—-I do. Ay es- Can’t help it but the Lord p’ints out the way fer me an’: I stick to the fa th e r.’ ” - -To Colin’s astonishm ent he learned that the regim ent on its march had not met Miss Fayerw eather and: her friend. He discharged his guide, who turned back with, the two horses. S “Yes, I Knew You W ere Near. I Saw .

Gentle dignity in his manner, a look of fatherly fondness In his face and eyes—it was all fam iliar and very grateful to the young m an. “My boy, I congratulate you. I am glad to see you here and more than I can tell you I regret th at you have had to lose blood and bring back: this scar on your good face.” “It is a sm all m atter," said Colin. “Ir m ight ‘have;been much wbrsei W e5 >itpward, him;" r ; -■ w ere following Arnold and th a t’iA not ''-'-sHexdishlounted a task for soft-hearted men.” A shadow cam e over the face of the Chief. ' It xwas followed by A i frown. .... I “I have heard of his brave fighting, but not,” he paused a second and then added, "officially." “And yet it was he who won the battle,” said Golln. “He would have won it In the first onset w ith timely help from General Gates.” ' T he Chief rose and paced up and down the room with a frown but say ing not a word. How erect he stood! He w as m ajestic when offended, Colin spoke of P at and the Lady Ackland and their plan to : intercept the troops and march into cam p with them. “Oh, the young lady I” the General exclaimed. “I am forgetting my or ders. W hen happily you meet, and Tet us hope it may be soon, you are' to have a leave of absence for all neces sary attention to your personal affairs. You are to set out w ith Miss F ayer-' w eather and her maid for qur home In M ount Vernon’ w here my wife will welcome you and-w here !. hope you may find needed rest and the happi ness to which' you have looked for w ard so long and with a most becom ing patience.” ^ “Needed rest,” Colin thought, as he sa t in silence alm ost overcome by his sudden recognition of a melancholy truth. , H ere w as a man who long had needed the resf he could not take. T here w as respite for all others— home,’ rest, a season of happiness— but his portion w as ever the fiery fur nace Of anxiety- and peril—th e ' un ending struggle against chaos and in gratitude. - T here was a moment of silence. The General arose saying: “It does cheer me and it gives m e a solemn sense of my responsibilities. America is now aw ake and stirring. W e shall have reverses but they can only delay the' issue. ' C aptain Farnsw orth has done his share. Soon I shall send him hom e’ to get m arried and to live In peace.” The next day passed and still an other with no news of Pat and the Lady Ackland. Colin w as alarm ed.

H ad they fallen in with T he-B rit ish? Amos and . Major. Hum phries dis suaded ’ him on th e : ground th at it would be a wild-goose chase. - Colin spoke of his need of a horse. “Go down to the corral and-pick one . ouL” said A m oa- “The fenced.field. Is full of them.” Small detachm ents had been abus ing an order of the GeneraLby raiding - the countrysides fa r in the .north and bringing in a great num ber of horses and cattle.’ -C olin-w ent to the corral and there, to his am azem ent disco*, ered the blaze-faced, white-stockinged m are that belonged to PaL She Was In. good flesh and s p irit She cam e to /him when he called h er name. H e took her to the stable, w here she w as carefully groomed. H e gave his plan to the Chief and w as allowed an in definite leave. H e bad the m are sad dled and bridled. In bis best boots and uniform, which bad come down with the baggage, he mounted the m are and let her go as she would, well aw are th at she would find her way. Guided by her own unerring com pass she turned from one road to an other and again. Nearly two hours they had traveled w hen-Colin saw a horseman approaching with a gun In his hand. The young man drew rein to get inform ation. The horsem an seized the bit of the mare, saying; ■ “W here did you get her? She is a stole horse.. For a week I have been tryin' to find her.” Colin told of her unauthorized cap ture by American troops and of his reason for being on her back. “I was on my way to the rebel camp,” said the other. “So you are the man them ladies are lookin’ for. I've heard of ye, colonel." “W here are the ladies?” “At the house of Sir Roger Bogert about a mile ahead. He’s my master,' sin —a loyalist man—the king’s col lector,-sir, An’ if ye find a better m an ye got to go to some other p lan et” “Do you know w hat delayed the ladies?” “One horse broke his leg in bad go ing, sir, and they had to double up. The older lady w as sick when they got here. T he; other-had her horse stole. I'll rush on ahead an' tell ’em- you’re cornin’. Ye don’t w ant to kill ’em with surprise.” The stranger turned his horse and spurred him to a sw ift gallop. The m are was eager to race along w ith him but Colin restrained her. The fulfillm ent of his deafest hope Was n ear. He thought of the wonder of i t The muse' of history' had brushed aside the arm ed hosts of a great em pire to let her. pass. H e thought of the two years lengthened by heart ache, deadly weariness, hunger, nights of shivering In bitter winds, days of storm and blood and deviltry In the black shadow of death. Thank God they w ere behind him and before him now w as the greatest joy the hum an heart can know—the broken thread Of Tove In his hand to be reunited. ’ .The big w hite m ansion of Sir Roger o n .a plateau, overlooking tw o valleys, Stood a little beyond him level w ith the road.

T he m are crowded her nose betw een them. • . “This is the end of a long story,” he said. , “ifo, the great test of your courage is coming,” she answ ered. “L et us go in. W e are still a t the dinner table” They w ent to the house and entered the great dining hall w here they w ere greeted with cheers by Sir Roger and some tw enty guests. A little later the young man w as sitting at the table between Pat and the Lady Ackland, a slender woman of rem arkable beauty. A fter a toast to the “two beloved rebels,” he told of the invitation to M ount Vernon. “I w ant to be your maid,”- said her ladyship. “it would spoil'us with pride,” Colin answered. The w hite-bearded Sir Roger, a wise and jolly man of sixty, arose and raised his glass. ! “H ere’s health and long life to the m otherland,” he- said. “In spite of her errors and failures she has a great, work to do in this w orld Of ours; God' give her strength to do it. Lion-like In her pow er and dignity, she will struggle on against baffling, cosmic hostilities more form idable than’ the grow ing arm ies of W ashing ton. But, Although I am loyal to the king, I can no longer hide my fear that he is doomed to fail. It seems to me th a t the decisive blow has fallen. Well, if there is to be a new nation may It have the . wisdom and the love of hum an rights which, w hatever we may say of the recent past, have m ain ly : characterized- the conduct of old England. 'A nd now I propose the: health of General W ashington, a . man of great vision and patience, who is bringing order out of confusion. PolL tlclans have tried and may still try. to starve h is ragged host, but they can not break his spirIL I think th at he will conquer chaos and be one of the great men of history.” The candles were lighted. P at and Colin w ent out-of-doors. "It Is cool here,” she whispered. “But a lover like you knowB how to warm the w eather.” “See the lam ps of heaven," he said. “Their light has an approving look. They seem to say: - 1We go In our appointed paths and we are glad that you have found yours.’ ” “It leads to the library,” said PaL “Lady Bogert will give us seclusion there. • W e can raise the golden barge and lift the perfum ed sails and set the flutes playing w hile we tell our stories.1 By and by we will return to: this- world of realities and I will, give you my plan for a lovely, practical home.” .. . ■ ■ • - - “And a t last," he said, “we will thank God’to r this day and go to our happy dream s and set out for Mount Vernon and -its dear lady tomorrow.”: “Tomorrow,” she answered.

H., who w ith much patriotic enthusiasm and m any heart thrills wrought out of their own and their m others’ gowns a beautiful Star-Spangled Banner. This coincides w ith a report th at the Stars and Stripes were hoisted aloft on the ves sel Raleigh In Portsm outh harbor on th at date. ilt w as more than 150 years ago that Cblonel Gansevoort and his little com mand of SOO men w ere defending Fort Stanwix, near the present site of Rome, N. Y. They had just heard that congress, had passed a resolution au thorizing the use of the Stars and Stripes; — .They had no flag of the new pattern. The garrison was ransacked for mate rial they could fashion into the new design. A blue cloth coat w as offered by Captain Sw artw out to form the blue union. A soldier’s wife donated a red petticoat for the red stripes, and the spldiers ripped their ammnnition- shirts to supply the w hite stripes. It w as not a handsome banner, but it thrilled the hearts of Its m akers as they placed It on a bastion nearest to the attacking B ritish and allied troops. T his is the Sr^t time, so far as the available-records show, th at the, Stars and Stripes were actually displayed before a hostile- and threatening en emy. T he'date was August 3, 1777. The official birthday of the Stars and Stripes was June 14, 1777, w hen the Continental congress passed a res olution “T hat the flag of the 13 Unit ed States be 13 stripes, alternate red and w hite; th at the union be 13 stars, w hite In a: blue field, representing a new constellation.” N early six m onths before the adop tion of the flag by congress, George W ashington crossed the D elaware and captured 1,000 Hessians in his brilliant attack on Trenton. A rtists of the time show the Father of Our Country cross ing the river in a boat displaying the fam iliar design of the Stars and Stripes. A part from this doubtful evi dence, which may have originated In the artists’ imagination, there Is noth ing to prove that the Stars and Stripe3 was in use a t this time. Many theories as to the true origin of our National Sag have been ad vanced, none of which have been defi nitely proved. Some believe it ls an . adoption of the coat-of-arms of the W ashington fam ily,. which contains both stars and stripes. O thers credit Betsy Ross w ith the creation of the design. O thers m aintain the idea for the flag came from the N etherlands. The fact that Francis Hopkinson, one of the signers of the D eclaration of Independence, subm itted a bill to congress In 1779 for the designing of the "flag of the United States .of Amer ica,” lends color to the belief th at ha w as its creator.. .

HE old-fashioned Fourth of July celebration of a quar ter century ago w as an event looked forw ard to with great _ interest and preparations by individuals, families, towns and cities. The celebration usually w as held In a grove, near the county seat or another prom inent town, where there w as an abundance of shade and w ater. Delegations would come from neighboring townships and ham lets, each w ith its procession' of wagons for the old folks, women and children and a snappy cavalcade of boys and girls on horseback. A t the head of the procession the stars and stripes would he carried In M - Old-Time Celebration. a decorated wagon In which would ride the local band. These country bands w ere of m artial type—two fifes, two snare drum s and a big bass drum and, the perform ers were; as a rule. Civil w ar veterans.'T o be a good flfer or. drum m er w as a proud distinction. The bands gave patriotic color to -the scene as the delegation passed along the winding trails. : . Each country division would b e . in command of a captain,-usually an ex-, soldier, conspicuous, by his sash of red and his military- hat. The divi sions would reach town early and pa- tiently w ait a t the edge of town or along side streets until assigned their places in the “grand procession.” Prizes w ere aw arded for the best dis play by a visiting delegation. The grand parade would form a t 10 o’clock, pass along the principal streets, cir cle the court house square, cross the river bridge and, with bands playing and banners flying, trium phantly enter the celebration grounds, w hile snap ping firecrackers, fluttering flags and booming cannon proclaimed the senti m ents of the day. The county seat contribution to this grand parade w as often’ extensive and spectacular. To be its commander or “chief m arshal of the day” was a cov eted distinction. Usually “M ajor” or “Colonel” somebody would be chosen gnd his Word w as law for th at day. H is re d A ash’ and hat w ith gold tas sels distinguished: him from the cap tains of delegations, who acted as his; aids. To fill this position often m ade the occupant a candidate for sheriff, mayor or the state legisla ture. The grand -procession, headed by this dignitary and a brass band, often “took more than an hour to en ter the grounds.” Upon reaching the grounds and feed ing and w atering the horses—no sm all task—the morning exercises began. The glee clubs would sing; the pres ident of the day would deliver an ad dress, and some favored school teach, er would read the Declaration of In dependence. These exercises were only heard by those near the speaker’s stand; for many were crowding around the pump or the barrels of “free Ice w ater, as advertised,” getting ready for dinner; while the noisy battle of fire crack ers and torpedoes w as being fought by small boys. And then “dinner,” with the tubs and baskets filled with old-fashioned food. W as there ever such sliced ham, juicy fried chicken, homemade rolls and doughnuts, eggs and pickles, jam s, relishes, preserves, pies, cakes and hot coffee? A long table supplied the hungry w ayfarer, but many preferred to dine by fam ilies or neighborhoods, even a t the: risk, of being called “styl ish and stuck up.” : Sometimes there were supplies of "barbecued beef,” “tumble in” and huge kettles of black coffee free for all. When such attractions were ad vertised, people often drove from points 30 or more miles away. s n i S f ! S I s „ .„.5ffi®^M8e®SaSS8s®K»t 'IpW-=Wry • i- -—V.i; ‘^v V-'' ?-"t . vi? RECORD, MOCKSVILLE. N. C News Review of Current Events the World Over W ar Debts Injected in W orld Conference— Britain Pays Installm ent of Ten M iIlions-F inal Doings of Congress Before A djournm ent. By EDWARD W. PICKARD Ramsay MacDonald Ra m s a y m a c d o n a l d threw a fair-sized mohkey wrench into the London economic conference machin ery in his opening speech, but the wheels hadn’t really begun to revolve, so the mechanism was not wrecked immedi ately. W hether it Is ultimately to operate successfully depends on diplomatic skill or on the complais ance of Oncle Sam. In tlie middle of an otherwise well-or dered address, the British prime minis ter suddenly inter jected the w ar debts issue, despite the fact that it was not on the agenda of the conference. That question, be de clared, “must be dealt with before every obstacle to general recovery has been removed, and it must be taken up w ithout delay by the nations con cerned. Lausanne has to be complet ed and this vexed question settled once for all in the light of present world conditions.” Delegates from all parts of the Brit ish empire and possibly those from France were not surprised by Mac Donald’s action, but Secretary Hull and his brother delegates from the United States did not attem pt to con ceal their displeasure with what they considered at least a display of poor taste. Mr. Hull was soon in tele phonic communication with W ashing ton, and as a result his address to the conference which was to open the second day of the parley was post poned. Among the other speakers of th at day, however, were Guido Jung of Italy and Gen. Jan Christian Smuts of South Africa, both of whom backed up MacDonald’s stand. “We firmly believe,” Jung said, ‘‘that there is a preliminary problem —intergovernm ental, debts jirising from the war. An armistice -was: signed for them at Lausanne. A final settlem ent now is imperative.” Smuts was even more offensive to Americans, frankly blaming the Unit ed States for the deplorable plight of ihe world. .................... Chancellor of the Exchequer Neville Chamberlain seconded the rem arks of MacDonald about w ar debts, and also said the crisis in world economic con ditions makes restoration of the gold standard absolutely impossible at pres ent. He favored m ultilateral treaties for lower tariffs, provided the reductions were actual and tangible, that they covered a wide area, that they did not impose undue sacrifices on lower tar iff countries and that they did not lead to economic w arfare. H e-emphasized the necessity for cheap money. WHEN Secretary Hull arose, the third to deliver his address, it ■was expected he would make some sort of reply to the war debts de mand. But he was silent on that sub ject, devoting much of his speech to argum ent for a renewal of the tariff truce promulgated by President Roose velt. This m ust be followed, he said, by removal of trade barriers, elimina tion of excessive tariffs, stabilization of exchanges and abandonm ent of na tionalistic economic policies. “The world cannot longer go on as it is going at present,” Hull said. “A successful meeting of this confer ence in my judgm ent is the key to widespread business recovery.” POSSIBLY more threatening to the success of the conference than the injection of the. w ar debts issue was the demand of the French, represented by Prem ier Daladier, that the dollar be stabilized before the m atter of tariff re ductions a n d r e moval of other trade barriers be taken up. Both the dollar and the pound, he inti mated, ' m ust be sta bilized on a gold basis at the earliest possible moment. “We feel we must end the currency w ar,” Prem ier D aladier declared. “The m aintenance of the gold standard is indispensable. How. can circulation of goods be re-established if their value depends on luck an d'hazard? W hat would you say to an architect or builder who used an elastic foot- rule’” America’s hopef for success of the conference was built upon a world tariff truce, and the French believe they have blocked this for the present at le a st They assert this would mean nothing so long as currencies are fluctuating. Only 15 of the nations represented in the conference adhered to the tem porary tariff truce which was to 'last during the life of: the par ley, and one of these, France,, now re fuses to renew its pledge under exist ing circumstances. Prem ier Daladier WHILE this sort of talk was. go ing on in the conference hall, G reat B ritain and Italy were plan ning to evade payment of the great er part of the installm ents due the United States on June 15, and France was calmly ignoring the fact that she also was due to make a paym ent on that date, her government being determined to do nothing about it. The British offered to pay 510,000,000 of the $79,950,000 due. President Roosevelt’s, reply to the British offer, eagerly aw aited, was that the United States would accept the partial payment only with the ex plicit understanding that the money was just an installm ent on the sum due and that such action should in no way invalidate America’s claim to the unpaid remainder. Mr. Roosevelt advised the British that as soon as possible they should make whatever representations for a revision of the debt they desire to offer, and in W ashington. He said he had no power to reduce or cancel the debt but would subm it the results of the negotiation to congress. . Under the new inflation bill the President is authorized to accept silver in paym ent of debt installm ents at the value of 50 cents an ounce. So the British paid in silver obtained from India. WAR debts, as much as discord over the m atter of w ar veterans’ benefits, caused delay in the adjourn ment of congress, though the latter, question was the ostensible reason. The senate appeared determ ined to stay in session until It had learned all there was to know about the offers of partial paym ent and the President’s response. The senators had known for a long tim e that Mr. Roosevelt w anted them to get away before June 15, and Robinson of Indiana read to them cabled dispatches from London saying that Chancellor Chamberlain was w aiting for congress to adjourn before announcing his offer of 10 p er cent paym ent So they decided to stay on the job a'little'longer. On the surface the delay was due to disagreem ent over the modification of the President’s program for reduc tion of veterans’ benefits, a part of the independent offices bill. The house- had accepted the compromise, but 20 Democratic senators and Shipstead, Farm er-Laborite. joined with 27 Re publicans to recom m it the m easure. Then the senate adopted the Cutting- Steiw er amendment, which would in crease veterans’ compensations by about $135,000,000, though the Presi dent had said he would go no further than $100,000,000. It w as expected the house would accept the “senate plan and th at Mr. Roosevelt would veto the entire bill. B ut the house showed signs of going along with the Presi dent, so the Democratic senators changed their mind and, after a hot debate, accepted the program it had previously rejected. The bill w as passed by a vote of 45 to 36, and w hat had seemed to be the first defeat for the President w as turned into a vic tory. Congress then adjourned. f N OTHER respects the senate acted 1 swiftly In completing the legisla tion the President had asked. The im portant bills enacted included the alm ost terrifying industry control-pub- Iic works m easure; the Glass-Steagall banking bill which makes provision for limited deposit guarantee January I, 1934, unless in an emergency or dered earlier by the President; and the fourth deficiency bill carrying the largest appropriations ever made In peace time. The home owners’ loan act setting up a $2,200,000,000 corpor ation for home loan mortgage relief already had been passed and w as signed by the P resident who a t the same tim e issued an appeal to mort-. gage holders to desist from foreclos ures until the new agency can begin functioning. The Industry control bill did not get through w ithout fierce opposition from 15 of the more radical Democrats and 23 Republicans, all led by Senator Borah, who especially denounced the giving of vast power to Gen. Hugh Johnson, the man selected as the ad m inistrator. . The senate rather ignored the execu tive order which President Roosevelt had transm itted, providing, for re groupings, consolidations, transfers and abolitions of certain executive agencies and functions. He explained in bis message the necessity for these changes and said they would effect a saving of more than $25,000,000: Many other changes, he said, were In con tem plation, and' he had selected only those he believed should he put into effect as quickly • as-possible. NOW M assachusetts is in line for repeal of prohibition, the tenth state to decide the m atter. The elec tors voted about 4 to I wet in selects ing 45 delegates to a constitutional convention that will ratify the repeal am endm ent In Boston the vote was approxim ately 10 to I, and one of that city’s delegates will be Jam es Roose velt, son of President Roosevelt In most of the communities the question of local license was subm itted and only a few of. them stood firm against license.

Then, if both parties per sisted in disagreement, the way would be open to arbitration. A rbitration would likely extend over a long period.

For it is through the eyes of John Trum bull, the __________ Connecticut painter, that we have received most of our visual impressions not only of w hat took place in In dependence hall in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776, hut of many of the other great events In tie American Revolution. A short time ago Yale university commemorat ed the centenary of the opening of the oldest art gallery In this country connected with a college. The founder of that art gallery, the architect of the original building, w as this same John Trumbull, whose body lies in a vault be neath the fine arts building which has succeed ed the simple little structure which he designed and which housed the original collection of his canvasses that have since become so famous. The commemorative ceremonies, which consist ed principally of showing again all of the Trum bull collection of paintings as they had once been displayed in the vanished building which he designed, not only served to honor the ■painter of America's epic,” but It emphasized once more the part which this university has Played in the "visual education” of Americans Ia the history of their country. It recalled once more an am bitious projecl ™ that Institution in this educational field, be- Saa more than a decade ago and, appropriately enough, brought to a trium phant conclusion WiDg the year in which the sesqui-centennial 0 r*can ^dependence was being celebrat- of AT*la? Was tlle PutlIication of “The Pageant • America," a 15-volume pictorial history of tr country which has "worked som ething of a jontion In the methods of presenting and American history.” y i^ea f°r such a project took form while -Ifi, , JJaiversity Press, which had Just c5m- .

It Is the story of some fine “detective work” in following clews, some of which ended successfully and some unsuccess fully, of persistence and perseverance in the face of baffling problems and seemingly Insuper- ible obstacles—ail in the nam e of historical ac- :uracy! B ut out of it all cam e a total of more than 10,000 authenticated pictures as the tiasis for w hat is now recognized as the first and thus fa r the only real source book of Pictorial Amer icana. Incidentally, when the work w as com pleted It represented the expenditure for cap ital, account of m ore than $382,000, probably the largest sum ever spent for a single piece of historical research but a very modest amount; when com pared to the value and im portance of the results obtained. In considering the task before the Tale au thorities It m ust' be rem em bered th a t American history began long, long, before there were cam eras to record historic Incidents as they, are recorded today. So the only pictorial record we have of some events of the greatest his torical Im portance w as m ade by artists equipped only with the crudest sort of Instru m ents and m aterials for their work. B ut the Importance of their accomplishment lies In the fact th a t they furnished “contem porary rec ords” and the modern cam era can be used for copying their work. . ' . And here again comes In the m atter of cost In producing “The Pageant of America,” for In many cases the cost of securing a copy of some ^ individual picture ranged anyw here from SlOO up to $350. In tw o of the volumes of the series are 17 full-page illustrations (such as is shown above) which reproduce in colors the uniform s worn by participants in the various -American wars. . .T he search for authentic paintings, daguerreo types, Uthographs and engravings of contem porary events and for charters, commissions and other documents preserved In official ar- chives took the research staff of “The Pageant of America" into m any strange places. It was recognized a t the start th at the discovery of Am erica w as only an incident in the discovery of Asia and th at to Illustrate the ^background of the beginnings of American1 history f t would be necessary to find pictures Which would show the influences in Europe as fa r back as the tim e of Carpini and M arco Polo, which led ul tim ately to Columbus’ attem pt to find the route to A sia by sailing w est So the earliest dated picture In the “Pageant” is a page from the Latin m anuscript of Adam of- Bremen In the Eleventh century, In which the first mention of Vinland discovered by the Norsemen, was made. A fter considerable difficulty this m anuscript was ocated In the Staats Bibliothek in' Vienna. Of portraits of Columbus', popularly regarded as the discoverer of America, there are legion. B ut it rem ained for the Tale researcli staff to trace back for the first tim e all these portraits to their original ,.source and that original source is the “Jovius portrait” (shown above), an engraving which it is believed was first pub lished in 1575 and which is a copy of a portrait th a t hung in the fam ous gallery of Paulu3 Jovius. archbishop of Nocera, a man of vast wealth who spent a fortune In collecting por traits of the great men of his tim e and who w as an ardent adm irer of the Italian navigator. It is beUeved. th at this is the only portrait of Q olum buK painted^uringhislifetim e. Baclt Cf a portrait'w hich appears In another volume o f “The Pageant”—'“The W inning of Freedom;” is a typical story of perseverance. W hen this volume was in preparation, the au thors w anted a portrait of one of the German officers w ho.fought under the British flag during the Revolution. None being available In this country, a search was begun through the Amer ican consiil-general in Berlin. A fter consider able correspondence with "various museum s and private collectors, the consul-general learned th at an excellent oil painting of Baron Fried- erich Riedesel, who commanded the H essians under Burgoyne, w as still banging in the castle of Neuenhof bei Eisenach, Hessen. Through the courtesy of Freiherr A lbrecht Riedesel, a de scendant of the Eighteenth century baron, per mission was Bnaliy granted a year later to make a photographic copy of the original. Even more devious w as the trail which final ly led to an authentic daguerreotype of W il liam F. H arnden, founder of the- express busi ness In the United States. W hile assembling m aterial for the volume “The M arch of Com merce,” the editors came upon a very poor woodcut of H am den In Stimson’s "H istory of the Express Companies” published In 1858. De siring the original daguerreotype from which this reproduction had apparently been made, they enlisted the aid of the officials of the American Railway Express company. Through S. M. Baker, general auditor at Chattanooga, Tenn., they learned th at the orig inal had been in the possession of H arnden’s son, who was living in San Francisco shortly a fte r. 1860. Using the San Francisco direc tories, they addressed identical letters to sev eral H arndens listed therein. One of these w as W. K. H arnden and he proved to be a grandson of W illiam F. H arnden. W. K. H arnden replied th at he believed the desired daguerreotype was. in the possession of his elder brother, Frederic, then living In Paio Alto. Such proved to be the case, but the end of the trail w as not yet, for the elder brother could not locate the picture, as it had been In storage for some time. Finally, however, a year after tbie first Inquiry a copy of the daguerreotype" w as received just in tim e to be reproduced and Included In the pictorial history of the express business. B ut not all descendants of past notables were a s helpful as the H arndens. The Yale author ities tell the story of the search for an authen tic portrait of a little known but im portant fig ure in the Revolution. They located one of his descendants in a small New England town, a woman, who owned a contem porary oil portrait of the Revolutionary fighter. But when ap pealed to for permission to reproduce the paint ing she refused, presumably because of the reticence and reserve which characterize^ the old-fashioned spinster lady of the Yankee rype and aiso possibly, because she feared that some Injury to the painting m ight resu lt So It was necessary to send a member of the editorial staff there fo r/th e purpose of coaxing the old lady to m ake it 'possible for her aiices- tor to b e represented In this im portant historical work. The -‘aff m em ber found the portrait 'hanging in the parlor where It could not be -photographed on the w all and he experienced great difficulty In persuading her to let him take it down from the wall. Then when he secured the necessary, permission, she would not IeNhim take the painting out of the house, so he had to bring a commercial photographer for more than one hundred m iles in order to mak§ certain: of getting a good copy.(©by Newspaper Union.) The book of Joshua,, from which our lesson is taken. Is a history of the con' quest of the promised land and its di vision among the tribes of Israel. It lakes Its name from its principal char acter, Joshua. I. Joshua,' the New Leader of Israel. ' I. His appointm ent (Num. 27 -.18-20). The people were not to be left in doubt as to a leader when Moses was gone. The leader was to be appointed and to be given recognition before the people. During the • wilderness Journey Joshua^ was Moses’ m inister and the captain of his army. When Moses was denied the privilege of going over the Jordan, Joshua w as appointed to the leadership of Israel. % Joshua’s fitness for the leadership of lsrsinl (Pent. 34:9). a. He was full nf the spirit of wis dom. Although nut dependent upon hum an wisdom, God selects as his rep resentatives men whom he has en dowed with the proper wisdom. b. Be was divinely ordained for the work at the band of Moses, for "Moses had laid his hand3 upon him.” This he had done at the commandment of God (Num. 27:18). c. The people owned him as their leader. For successful leadership, a ruler m ust have the individual affec tion and allegiance of the people. II. Joshua Commanded , to Take Charge" (vv. I. 2). Moses was dead, but God’s work m ust go on; therefore, God issued the command for the new leader to as sume his duty. III. God Renews His Promise to Is rael Concerning the Land (vv. 3. 4). This promise had been given to Abraham and renewed to Isaac, Jacob, and Moses. -It is now renewed to Is rael as they were about to enter upon its possession. The nearest this terri tory w as ever possessed was during the reign of David and Solomon. This land still belongs to the Jew s, and In God’s own time they will possess i t The world will not be at peace nor the fullness of divine blessing come upon the world until Israel is in this land. The present distressful condition In Germany and other parts of Europe may hasten the movement of Israel to their own land. As these notes are w ritten. G reat Britain is being advised to open Palestine to the Jews. IV. The Promise of the Divine Pres ence (v. 5). Joshua was entering upon a perilous and difficult enterprise. The difficul ties before Joshua w ere: 1. The Jordan river (v. 2). This river was now at Its flood (Josh. 3:15), making it impossible for arm ies to cross. 2. People were living In walled cities (Num. 13:28). N otwithstanding this, God was ready to insure success a. “I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee” (v. 5). b. “There shall not any man be able to stand before thee” (v. 5). c. ’ ‘As I was with .Moses, so I will be with thee” (v. 5). Because of his conviction that.G od bad been witb his m aster he w as willing and ready to cross the Jordan at its flood tide and courageously m eet his enemies. V. Conditions of Blessing - In the Land (vv. 6-9). 1. “Be strong and of good courage” (v. 6). Bis mission was to go in and conquer the land and then to divide it among the tribes for an inheritance. To do this required courage. 2. Unwavering obedience to the W ord of God (v. 7). In all his work he m ust conform his life to the law of God. Inorderto accomplish thisthe law of the Lord must be In his mouth continually. Joshua rendered prom pt obedience. VI. Joshua's Retrospection (Josh. 23:3, 4, 14). As his life was- now draw ing,to a close,'he summoned the people and rul ers and gave farewell counsel. L Rehearses God’s goodness (v. 14). God had given rest to Israel from all their-enemies and had brought them into the land of plenty. 2. AU that had been done for them w as by the hand of the Lord (w . 3, 4). God. had fought for them. No one was able to stand against them. The Viiion of Lite This vision of life In the cross Is not -a vision of despair but of confi dence and • hope, ^because behind. It tbere,4s the empty tomb, and the fig ure, w ith’ wonnded hands outstretched to bless, ascending Into glory.—G. A. Studdert Kennedy. HeNeverFail* : “If we never desire anything but w hat God desires, we will alw ays at tain our object, because God’s will can never fail of accom plishm ent”—J. M. Method in Doing Best for Others Danger of Over-Indulgence Point Always to Be Considered. Doing w hat is best for others has its perplexities. The desire is to gratify the w ishes of the person for whom we would do- the kindness, but it w ill not prove a genuine kindness unless the result is beneficial. Self- sacrifice which is detrim ental to an other for whom the sacrifice is made, Is indulgence. It gives the one who m akes the sacrifice a sense of satis faction to be able to m ake it possi ble for the other to gain the desired goal, or succeed in doing w hat w as wished. If, in the end, this indul gence increases the selfishness of the one for whom the kindness was done, or even If it m erely pam pers him, or her, it brings to the forefront of character unlovely and unilkable traits. It is true th at one such in dulgence Is seldom far-reaching In its effect, but a repetition is a grave mistake. There is no one who feels the need of tem pering the desire to grat ify the wishes of others w ithout harm , more than a father or a moth er. W hat the parents are trying to do is help their children to derelop their best natures. Anything which parents do that ham pers their off spring in the ability to cope with life puts the children a t a disadvan tage In the outside world. Being too severe creates a spirit of rebellion which sometimes is as detrim ental as being too lenient, or too self-sacri ficing In their behalf. In neither case Is doing w hat is best for others m ade the object of param ount Im portance. I t is not alw ays parents who fall to do the best for their children, as, occasionally, one knows of cases w here children do a bit of the spoil* ing of parents. It is the children, then, who m ake m istaken sacrifices. W hen this Is so, the m other or fa ther gets to tyrannize over the child or children. Persons, young or old, w ho have a natural tendency to be selfish grow more selfish w hen ca tered to continually. An unselfish person grows more appreciative and careful of expressing wishes when he, or she, realizes there is sure to be an effort made to grant the wishes, once they are known. It is evident that It Is not always easy to do w hat is best for others, because of the differences In hum an natures. It takes discrimination. B ut one may rest assured-that it Is only when love rules the wishes, the love which craves only w hat is best for others, th a t the vision Is clear. ©, 1933/ Bell Syndicate.—WNU Service. e Sure That You Get ASPIRIN St. Joseph’s Aspirin Is always fresh, always foil strength, always folly ef fective because it’s carefully wrapped in moisture-proof cellophane* ____ World's Largest Seller at I Qc * A SK FO R IT B Y N A M E * The 60e size of St. Joseph’s Aspirin his oeea reduced Io price to 50c.The 50c size contain* more than 8 times os many tablets as the I Oc sire.

Investigation reveals th.it 11« > ures on the staffs of the medicine men are intended to represent Doc tor • Patterson, leader of a Scottisl1 colony which settled on the coast 0( the Gulf of San Bias in 1G98. It was sent cut by the “Company of Scot land" Trading to Africa and the In dies,” apparently a purely specula tive enterprise. The' Scottish settlers made friends of the Indians, largely because o! the interest taken In the natives bj Doctor Patterson ami the cures In was able to bring about. The Indians attributed to him supernatural pow ers. He was the greatest of “mdj. cine men.” The colony, however, was unsuc cessful. It encountered hitter oppo sition from the Spaniards, who be lieved that it was intruding on their territory, and in a few years It was abandoned and all traces of It soon vanished—all except the long nose, the high top hat and the green ooat : of the good Doctor Patterson. Hf was a god who had come and gone. By application of the old prindplp of sympathetic magic they continued to ihake use of him. The magic stiffs first came to the Smithsonian collet tlons from among the Tule Indians. Becent acquisitions show that they have now spread into the Choco coon- trjr-o f Colombia, the ancestors ol !Wfciise present Indians never could H ave come into contact with the mat himself. Doctor Pattersco has t» come a powerful magic. The face always is recognizable. The better stalls reproduce details ' of his attire. His coat Is painted black or green. His waistcoat, shirt, necktie, collar and buttons are repre sented. He is the god of medicine.

M e a d v t E E t a . e , t u n e ^ ^ Just Begun To Fight. “ We have just begun to fight!’’ T his should be the battle cry of the opponents of the opponents of the sales tax in North Carolina— both merchants and consumers— who must fight and hght hard dur ing the next year, if they are to prevent the present sales tax from becoming a fixed policy of taxation in this State. Ito p p o n en tso fth isfo rm o fta x a tion in this State. If opponents of this form of taxa tion quit the battle now, they ,will see all other taxes gradually re duced and the three per cent, sales tax gradually increased, even as the tax on gasohue was increased from Legislature to Legislature. The sales lax is now three per cent. If consumers are willing to. stand for that, the next Legislature will make it four or five per. cent As the sales goes up, income and corporation franchise taxes, will come down. Paul Leonard, former secretary of the North Carolina Merchants Association, who has been about over the State a good deal' of late, is quoted, as saying that the time is time is ripe to organize the people against the present sales tax. If there is ever to be such a time, this year is the time for concerted, ag gressive action. The present sales tax was put over on the people is the primaries of last June. No amount of oppo sit.iou availed anything after the candidates had been selected by the sales tax forces. Merchants and consumers who waited until the Legislature convened to begin their ■ sorrow that they were eight or ten months too late. If it expects to accomplish any thing in the Legislature of 1035 the North Carolina Auti-Sales Tax League should begin to function ( fficiently not later than next' fall. It would be even better if the or ganizalion could be lauuched in earnest this summer Incidentally, we might add here that we can think of no one offhand whqjs better fitted than J. Paul Leonard to lead an Anti-Sales Tax League in Norh Carolina in ’ build ing an organization that will get results. Mr. Leonard has been; fighting the sales tax for many years. His leadership of the mer chants’ association brought him in touch with influential people in all sections of the State. His ability as an organizer and his wide ac- quintance ought to him an ideal man for this service to the -people of North Carolina.—Winston Sa Ietu Journal. No Need To Worry.

Comment On Elliott Elliott Roosevelt. 22. and second son of the president, married a little, more than a year ago, is taking the divorce treatment at Reno, noted resort for that sort of treatment. The proceedings seem tobe by mu tual agreement. Being the son of -of the president the ynung-man will get liberal attention, also criticism, which will be extended to bis pa by some. The action would not be noticed if Elliott was not conspicuous through his pa occupying the white house. Divorcelawsare liberal all about, even in our own good state of North Carolina, and there is no reason why the sons of presidents may not avail themselves1 of privi leges provided for. the citizenry gen erally; nor is-tbete any- reason- why presidents should be held responsible for the conduct of their children more than, parents who are not in ^ the limelight. Butoccupyinga conr spicious position the president may be shot at for any'and a|l sort3 of reasoos.and for none,- and some of tv.e good folks may be saying thatif that boy bad been raised right he- wouldn’t-be going to divorce courts for relief.—Statesville Daily.

Editor of Davie Record:—When a small boy, about 50 years ago, I lived near Farmington and have al ways since felt a keen interest, in that little place. I feel sure the people of eastern N. C would I ike even a description of the western hills and mountains. A flmt rock down here would be picked up by aavone, and if our ladies could get a roadway as full of small rock as the road about % ml'e back of old Olive Branch Church was 50 yeirs ago, they would soon wheelbarrow or haul them in to decorate I heir front yard. If a description of western N. C. would interest our people I think perhaps your people who have not traveled would enjoy a brief de scription of Eastern N. C. Jf you will get your Geography, find Hyde County and Engelhard, here is where I live. To the east you see Pamlico. Sound, east of the sound you see a narrow strip of land reaching from Virginia to Car teret county. This strip of land is about from 2 to 5 miles wide. The highest position of them, has vege tation growing, some woods, some grass covered and where nothing bin sand not much grass grows AU along these banks are little set tlemects. People fish, catch clams, -oysters and sell. Some few raise What we call Banks Ponies, a small species of horse, tough aud strong, and mostly gentle. They general ly get their own--Jiving, except in hard cold weather they must be fed some. Sometimes when we have tong hard gales of wind the ocean sweeps across these banks and peo pie’s homes are blown and washed about, and people flee to the high est homes, and all live and work together to get the houses repaired again. Perhaps some of you have seen and used Zeapon. This a bush or tree and grows on these bank, the ends of the twigs are cut and cured, then it is boiled and a tea made of it some drink it instead of, coffee. It is considered more healthy, than coffee. Along the shores of Pamlico Sound and sometimes out in deeper water we have natural oyster beds, (we call these oysters rocks.) Some of these oyster rocks have been there before any one can remember, and the dead-oysters have pilled or washed up until they are above the water. These are marked by beacon lights to keep vessels from runuing on them In shore in the shallow waters, people who oyster, stake off acres ■ of this shallow water and plant oysters there. Littleoystersthe size of a 50 cent piece will be nice size to eat in two years, aud are much bet- terflavored than those on the rocks or natural beds. I live about two hundred yaids.from wharf where oysters are sold, and can buy them fresh from the beds 8 montbs in the year. They are not so good in sum mer month. We have right much fishing in ,tho Pamlico - Sound too. The fish are caught in stake nets and pouud nets, we catch fine salt water mullets beginning: uow:; and have, them through the .summer months, caught and. delivered alive in time for breakfast. ■ Pound ■ nets are large pockets 20 feet square with open mouth and leads from one net to the next, the school comes along and see the Ieadentets the door to the pound and when they get in they can’t find way out. The fishermen dip them out of sounds with dip nets. We have little maton boats we fish in, about 2oTo 25 feet long. Yesterday two men ^aught 2,900 pounds. This morning I went to the Lee house where they unload, and ice their fisbj and the same men" had just; came in. They had 5, ioo pounds and nad to go back to finish, be cause boat would not hold; them all these were croakers, trout, spats, butter- fish and a few blue fish. We have fish trucks - which- rub as far as Greensboro. These fish sell here, now for one cent a; pound If you have never, eaten any salt water fish , except, iced, you 'will j have a treat, if you -ever eat ooe| fresh and; dressed while he kicks;or jumps. . . Hyde is a fair sized farin-: ing county;;:we produce to the- acre more corn than any other county'un but grows loo high; often see cot I Administrator's Notice. ton 5 to 6 feet high, but it doesn’t yield so well. We are successful with several varieties of Soja beans. Poultry as a side line and hogs,, Some few-ponies and cattle. We are short on fruit. We grow right many grapes The best . ip ., the world. The ojjj white scupper nong. (I see Davie County peach es arc ripe. I havn’t forgotten them- My mouth is watering for some now ) Our transportation is not so good but we mauage coget along with it. Our poultry, eggs and most live stock goes out by truck to market as far as Baltimore and Philadelphia Our grain and potatoes go out by boat. We keep 2 boats pretty busy, six or seven months during the year. We ship soja beans to Nor folk, for foreign markets. We have no tobacco or wheat lands. We are short on fruits because our people won’t spray. -We can pro duce very good pears and apples. We have plenty of honey for home use, and ship some to other sections. W. E CLA RK E-.

Glimpsing today’s exchanges we fi id the Winston Salem Journal in evident peniiibatiaa over the rabid canine menace in the Twin City. Editarially the Journal says: “ Five people were bitten by a mad dog on the streets. . . The animal was running at large without a tag ” . The editorial caption, ‘ Can Noth ing Be D me About Mad Dogs?” is presumably, in the nature of a iitnely query addressed to ciiy and connty authorities. ' We add, kill the street dogs.
