Always when the suggestion is made to abolish the sales tax triends of the levy are ready to in quire where the money is coming from to replace it, and that usual Iy shuts off the argument because the average layman is not versed in the ways of taxation, except to feel its pinchcs. Even Governor Ehringhaus confess a willingness to forego the sales tax if somebod', will bring forward something ac ceptable to take its place. However this procedure was noi followed in the matter of Iheeliminai tton of th“ 15 cent property levy. The property tax was first marked out, and then something was sought to take its place. True the higher ups have decided on the sales tax in advance, indications are that they did, but they were first certain that the property levy was off the record The . Charlotte Ooserver, not wholly friendly to the sales tax. recently asked this same old qaes tion: where the State could raise $10,000,000 except through the sales tax? xA Hickory citizen has enlightened the Observer thusly: The State of North Carolina has had for a number of years niachin ery for collecting income tax. This is the place to get the necessary revenue to replace the sales tax This manner of taxation should be broadened so as to reach every in come above a low minimum say ot £500 annually. The farmer, the wage earner, the professional man, business man and big industrialist should all be taxed on income This is without a doubt the-- mp?t; equitable way to raise revenue. What a man would pay under this plan would be absolutely based on bis ability to pay. This levy should of course be small on low incomes with a sliding scale that would tax larger incomes to pay. ‘I have for years hoped that some statesman in our Legislature or candidate for Governor would have the neive to advance this idea. The sales tax which is uuquestion ably a proverty tax, could easily be supplanted with above plan that we already have.” This proposed levy on incomes — all incomes— would enable the State not only to scrap its sales tax, bat other levies as well. It would be anything else but painless—and there’s the rnb. There would be such a howl from those in the big brackets, those who know how to go about defeating legislation, that wouldn’t get to first base — Statesville. Daily. NUMBER 20 D iv o r c e L a w s . Florida, in her eagerness to appeal to an enormous tourist and transient trade, is ever alertalert to any - move which may be an . added "attraction to sojourners. Her latest coup is the establish ment of an easy divorce law which places the state on a par with Neva da and Arkansas and may establish Miami in competition with Reno and Hot Springs as a popular resort for the maritally miserable. There was a time in the history of the United States, and all but the younger generation can recall it, when matrimony was considered the most sacred rite in the customs of the inhabitants. . It was a joyful occasion for the contracting parties but was nevet entered into lightly or without deep consideration and forethought... Instead of trial mar riages, vonng people became engag ed and “ went, together” for a long time before they .entered into the sacred bonds. People who. became divorced were looked upon as being disgraced and separations were rare. Certain churches would not reunite their members in other weddings after divorce so.long as both parties of the original marriage were living. South Carolina,was one state that did uot graut.. divorces .tovCouples who were: married under;her laws We read; now that". this; may be changed soon. Even our own beloved/state has lightened the responsibilityattached to the mariiage^vows by making it easier for couples -to dissolve by en-t acting a law permitting divorce on jhe-.gro.uds. of tw.qjyears separation^ AU of this easy separations legis lation tends to cheapen the Sanctity of the wedding/ceremony •• Young people enter into the serious busi ness of marriage without« giving a thought to the future except to the future except to the knowledge that if everything does not go- to suit them it will be an easy matter to shake it cff. The result is being reflected, in the enormous number- of unsuccessful marriages, wrecked homes," blighted careers,, and unhappy people. The so called-crime wave is due largely; to the fact that laws have become so easy y 0 evade vrand the penalties light ; "j Marriag^iIhat go ■‘on the rocks” are becoming so numerous,because of the .easy eva sion of lhe colemn -vows' through the divorce courts.—Statesville Re cord.

Neither the authorities nor the publican can afford to ignore the fact that traffic experts are practically agreed in declaring that speed is the outstanding cause of highway acci dents. Automobiles' of today are capable of making greater speed than ever before. They can be oper ated so easily over roads, that gener- speaking, are in excellent condition that drivers unconsciously hit up their rate of travel to an unsafe speed. However mechanically per fect an automobile may be, it can not be brought to a stop as quickly when running at fifty miles an hour as at thirty. There is no doubt that thousands of accidents happen be cause motprists who do not consider themselves reckless drivers forget that at any moment they may be confronced by a situation thatneces- sitates a quicker stock than t ey can possibly make. __ Lots of persimmons this year, so w e ’r e going to have a hard winter; squirrels are not storing awaj food, so there’s a mild winter ahead Just take your choice, b“‘ ,et the predicted will Btr.ke a happy medium and let it go at that.

(From The Columbia State.) ■ We saw one of the saddest sights f>n God’s green earth at the foot ball game the other day. I No, it was not % the cripple lad, Iso helpless, with; limbs bent and twisted, that friends had to liftbitn ,to the stands. No, his happy smile and clear eyes forbade weeping there. Nor was it the ./old gentleman, deaf, and with' legs bowed with .weakness, who was carefully led to his waiting car. Nor yet the;big guard who crumpled on the field with an in jured ankle, and whose face, as hip foot was bared aid tbe injured treated, was contorted with pain. Not this, for here was but a hurt to the flesh; no bruising of the spirit, and he was soon in the run ning again Not even the pathetic IiitIe lads •with tattered sweaters, with pale dirty faces and chill bare feet, over flow from slum neighborhoods, that somehow manage to get iu for al most every game; and whose cheer fully povery and pitiful neglect do wring the heart, cau take rank with the really depressing spectable that hundreds, perhaps . thousands, of persons observed. Staggering, giggling, maudlin, with reddened face and tousled hair, with half glazed eyes, a girl strag gled down the steps on the arm of a male escort, himself as unsteady as she. There were ripples : of un thinking laughter ,at their; uncer t^jn progress. There were jeering oSisMsheu -the.pairifell.down. No. one seemed to know -her, certainly uo one would admit' that he did. But she was to all appearances not a disreputable woman in the ac cepted sense of the term. Somebody’s daughter, some body’s “little girl.” somebody’s sister, maybe somebody’s young wife So drugged in sense and senses as to be lost to all ordinary decency. A hideous mockery of all that one looks for in younp womanhood. ■ A drunken woman, especially a young one, is a sight to start the tears T h e N e w P o ta to L a w . From Americus :(Ga ) Times . Recorder. A new law passed by congress for “potato control” appears at first glance to have about reached the limit of absurdity. ' And if tbe gov ernment does not '.employ auother army of inspectors and spies for its enforcement, it seems likely that potato bootlegging may become a uew industry. Anyway, here are some of the provisions ot the law, which will apply to every person who raises more than five bushels of potatoes for sale. Before marketing bis potato crop, tbe raiser muse obtain a quota from the government, then he must ob tain tax exemption certificates en titling him to sell that amount of potatoes without paying a stiff tax. Before marketing the potatoes har vested after Dec. 1. 1935, they ‘shall bs attached;-tax stamps or tax exemption stajnps.” Anyone who sells or buys pota toes not packed in';the prescribed containers with stamps affixed, shall upon conviction, .be. fined not more £1.000, and for a second offense a prison sentence of not more than a year; may not be imposed In addi tion to the fine .;K - It must have taken a real brain truster to think that ;pne'.up. But the law might have^gone a step farther and required that each in dividual potato be wrapped in cel lophane. ■ Many newspaper men are against accepting public jobs until some body offers them one.

In. trying to control the wild beast oil .'intoxicating?" liquor which they have turned loose, the wet gangs wili: find that all their proposals have already been weighed in the balance and found wanting. ForwnarieB the English colonies on our Atlantic seaboard, and later, the nation and the .States have wrestled with the drink evil. ;During that period millions have perished as its victims. Its deadly blows were neveiCconfined to those who drink. Only the final judgment of the world can disclose how many of them sleep, in "drunkard’s graves. But wives and children and parent? *nd brothers and sisters of the drunkards have succumbed in still greater numbers. . The restored drink evil i 8 no stranger to the older citizens. They have seen it violate, the law at every opportunity. Tbey have seen its old soaks crowd court rooms to help its criminal agents escape the penalties of tbe law. They have seen its corrupt elec tions, Iaught at morality and patriot ism and prostitute official life. They have" seen its victims tremble and heard them groan and shriek with delirium tremens., They have seen the families of -its sots shrivel and die of abuse, destitution and shame. They have seen, all plans to con trol it dismally fail. Repeal of the Federal prohibition laws accomplished nothing that the wets predicted for it. . Satin is wise. In bringing -back the liquor traffic; be bas created a situation infinitely worse than that which obtainedJin the days of the opeh' saloon: ^Then'only4the. men drank; No respectable woman woold patronize a public.bar. Now, intox:- cating drinks can.be bad in restau rants, at lunch counters, in drug stores and beer gardens,, etc. And women, young women are no longer ashamed to be seen drinking. But in addition to drinking, woman. haB taken to smoking. Oh, how she has fallen! With a cigarette between her painted lips, she has sunk be neath the level of the men who used to spend their nights in tbe bar room. From'the time when Noah became drunk on wine, down to the present day. alcoholic beverages have uni. formly scandalized those who drink them. Noah did not get the wine in a sa loon. . Neither did he get it a speak easy.’ He produced it from bis own vineyard. It was tbe wine, not a saloon or hotel or speakeasy, that made him drunk. Human nature has not changed. Wine continues to make drunks. With tbe repeal of the 18th a- mendment has come not only the open saloon but ;an increase in the use of intoxicants, in the number of automobile accidents, fatal and otherwise, and in the number of drinking and drunken drivers. VWe were told that repeal would eliminate the bootlegger. The di rector or of the Federal . alcohol ad ministration has told us since repeal that so far as the liquor traffic is concerned the United States is living ip a fool’s paradise and the bootleg trade is still withjis. We were told that prohibition;was the cause of bootlegging and thus a breeder of crimei that the effort to prohibi t made people wantj.to drink, .to vio late the law. Yet crime is not stop ped,bootlegging is rampant and the prosperity that liquor was to have brought back almost instantly with the coming of repeal failed to come for a.ny except those who ' manufac ture or sell sell liquor. . ; it is now the general consensus of opinion not only^of the. drys but of the wets, that riffeal haslSiled. The promises made hy liquor’ teen before tbSrMpeal werejmany. 'i They pro mised to put millions of inea to. work: they promised to eliminate tbe bootlegger and they promised to promote temperance and lessen drinking among youth. You all know that not one of these promises has been kept. Milliona hayenot S e rg e a n t Y o r k H a s E n o u g h W a r . Jamestown, Tenn.—Sergeant Al- vis C. Yot k, can show a dozen-odd medals for bravery in the World War, but he doesn’t want anything to do with an overseas conflict. “I ’ll never go there again,” said the man whom Gen. John J. Persh ing called “the greatest civilian soldier of the war.” York sat in the parlor of his farm home in the Tennessee bills and gave his views on Italy’s war with Ethio pia—and America’s chances of" be coming involved. -fV “We’ve got no business in' that scrap, no matter what happens,” he sa>d. “I hope Italy will be" stoped, sent back home and made to .pay every cent’s worth of damage that’s been done. I But I don’t wan’t to see this country take up arms to help do it.” Almost as an after though, he add ed: “And if she does, count ire , out. If we’re at acked, I ’d be on! the shore to meet ’em whentitbey came, but I ’m not going over and stick my self in somebody elses business a* gain.” York didn’t mention it, but laid away in the Tennessee farm house are more medals for bravery; than almost apy other man was awarded in the World War. The Congression al Medal of Honor is there. The Distinguished Service Cross, the Groixde Guerre with Palmns, the French Legion of Honor, the Croca di Guerre and many others. The big, red-headed and red- mustached mountaineer -won them all in France for annihilating a 'Gsiiv man machine gun batallion pj|ucti- cally - uW&isted, killing 25 'of‘ th» enerov ftnd maching 132 others back to the Atrerican lines as prisoners. His fame came from war, but York talked only of peace. He made no effort to conceal his contempt for the efforts of the League of Nations to settle the issue. S u c h Is L if e T o d a y . When will young girls stop get ting in automobiles with men whom they only have a passing ac quaintance or perhaps do not know them all. Two young Greensboro Woman’s College girls tbe other day accepted an invitation from a man, whom for all we know ;may be as pure as an angel, to ride down towu. They were on their way to a picture show.' There are no picture shows anywhere [near" where this man drove on a railway crossing, bis car struck by the train and one of the girls fatally injured. If the girls had gone on their way, as they started and not got in that fatal automobile tbe young woman,. only 17, would have been alive. to day. But it is difficult to teach a headstrong young woman that she should always watch her step and it is even more .difficult to impress. upon a man tbe fact that he should not take advantage of a young girl even to offering her a ride in ;; his car, it makes no difference iff bis motives are of the best.—Ex. • Having to wait until tbe end of tbe school term to see if there is any money to pay teachers their ; sick leave, will makeit mighty bard to de. cide whether to get sick or not.—rEx. The new soil conservation 'pro gram in Rowan county has started with over 9 ,000-acres of land signed up for immediate terracing. been put to work, the bootlegger has" increased, tbe budget has not been balanced temperance bas not been promoted and there is more drink ing among the youth. Inasmuch as the liquor traffic is wrong economically, scientifically, physically and morally, it is there fore the duty of every father and mother, and all law abiding citizens, to demand that our government drive ‘‘this monstrous traffic" from our homes and firesides. — Daily Snitbl in Qutrlotte Observer. 37658784299 p is® !H “ • S- M f B i frA V IB BECORD, M OCKflVlIJ»£. * • 0 pRcBMBER 4, t935 tH E F E A fflE R l THE DAVIE RECORD.

WNTT Service SYNOPSIS The youthful and comely "Widder” Marcia Howe has as her guest her late husband’s niece, Sylvia Hayden. A stranger, exhausted, finds bis way to Marcia’s home. Secretly, he asks her' to bide a package containing jewelry. She does so. Elisha Winslow, town sheriff, brings news of a jewel robbery nearby. The stranger gives ,his name a s .Stanley.. Heath. Sylvia • discovers the jewels, and naturally believes Heath Is a robber, but, for Marcia's sake, decides to say nothing. Marcia feels she has altogether too deep an interest In her guest, but is powerless to over come it. Heatb wires "Mrs. S. C. Heath,*’ New York, saying he is safe. He also orders a man named Currier to come at once. Sylvia, In her room, bedecks herself with the jewels. At Marcia's approach she hides them there. Heath asks Uarcia to bring them to him. They are gone! He makes light of the loss. Sylvia restores the jewels to •their original biding place.'' Elisha Winslow discovers them and has no doubt they are the stolen gems, and Heath Is a thief. Leaving the jewels, he makes plans for arresting Heath. Currier arrives. Marda overhears Heath describe how be acquired the gems, and Is forced to believe him guilty of theft. At Heath's suggestion, Currier investigates the hiding place— and finds the gems! He returns to New ' Tbrk -with - them, but his references to. "Mrs. Heath" have convinced Marcia her tender dream has been a foolish one. Elisha and Eleazer come to arrest Heath. Marcia is indignant, and un* wittingly reveals to Sylvia the secret of her lave. The jewels, of course, are not to be found. CHAPTER VIII—Contmued —12— “Oh, for heaven’s sake don’t do that,” EiUsha pleaded. "Artie Nickerson would be ragln' mad did he find I’d told yon. U you must know -what the message was, I can repeat it near ’nough, I reckon. It ran somethin' like this: “‘Sate on Cape with my lady. Shall return with her later.’ ” “And that was all}" Inquired Marcia calmly. “AU! Ain’t that enough I” BIisba de manded. As she vouchsafed do reply be pres ently continued: “I don’t want you should think I told you this, Marcia, with any un friendly motive. It’s only that those of us who've seen you marry one worthless villain don’t want yon should marry another. Jason was a IoiW down cuss. You know that well’s L” The woman, raised her hand to check him. “I’m aware ’tain’t pleasant to bear me say so out loud, but IfB God’s truth.” “Marcia!” Sylvia burst out “Bush, dear. We’ll talk of Hits later. Elisha, I think I must ask you and. BUeazer to go now.” “Xou ain’t goln' to tell me where the Jewels are?” . “I don’t know where they are.” “Nor nothin’ Tjout-tIiont the telegram.” “Nothing except to thank you for your kind intentions and say you quoted it quite correctly. I sent It for Mr. Heath myself. ‘My Lady,’ as you have apparently forgotten, Is the name of Mr. Heath’s boat.” “My land! So ’Hs,” faltered Elisha. ‘Tm almighty sorry, Marcia—I ask your pardon.” “It’s all right. Just leave us now, please.” The door banged behind the discom fited officials. . CHAPTER IX ' The torrent of words Sylvia had un til now held In check broke from her: “Was It true, Marcia—wbat they said about Uncle Jason I mean? Was It true?” '“Tin afraid so, dear.” “But you never told me; and you never, told Mother, either. Of course I see why. You didn’t .want, her to know because it would have broken her heart. I hate him! I hate him for maklBg snm unhappy and spoiling -your Ufe I” “Hush child. Jason has not spoiled my life,” contradicted Marcia with a grave, sad smile. - “But he has scarred it—dashed to pieces all the dreams you started out with—those beautiful dreams a girl has when she (s young. I know you bad such fancies once, for you are , , the. sort who would. And Jason: came and trampled on them—”. “He made me see Ufe as It was. per haps It. was better I should.” “Was Jason as bad as they said, MarciaTs Ah, you don’t have to an swer. There Is no need for you to try to reconcile your desire to spare me— spare him—with the truth. He was as bad—probably much worse.; Dear, dear Marcia.” Impulsively Sylvia Wht her Ups to the hands so tightly clasped In hers. “I cannot' Imagine,” she rushed on. ‘why, when one j>f- my faro Hy had. made you as. wretched as he did, you should: have' wanted another .. . .Ia.;-the Had I suffered so I . should^npyer have wished to lay eyes on any -wore.-Howes as. tans .as I lived.” “I have tried not only to forgive but to forget I have closed the door on the past and begun a new life.” “And now into it has come this Stan ley Heatb,” the girl said.For the fraction of a second Mar cia did-not reply; then almost. In- audibly she murmured: “Yes.”Sylvia slipped one of her strong young arms about the bowed' shoul ders.“It Just seems as If I could not bear it,” she burst out passionately.' “Silvia, look at me. Tell me the truth. Do you, too, love Stanley Heath? Was that the reason you fought against Elisha’s finding the jewels? Tell me. I must know.” “No,” she answered without hesita tion. “At first he did fascinate me. I changed my mind, though, later • on. Not because on acquaintance be be came less charming. It wasn't that If anything, he became more so. I just—changed my mind. As for the jewels, I could not bear to let that little runt of a sheriff win out You see, I thought the gems were there un der the brick and that when you urged him to search, you did not know it “I had known all along they were In the house, for I stumbled upon them by accident one day when I was here alone; but I had no Idea you had, I truly believed Mr. Heath had hidden them beneath the hearth, and I was determined Elisha should not find them.” “Yon think Mr. Heath took the Jewels?” asked Marcia, slowly. “Certainly I do. Don’t you?” “No.” “But, Marcia, can’t you see how plain It all is? I know it is terrible for you, dear. It almost breaks my heart It ts an awful thing to beUeve of anybody—harder still of a person one loves. Nevertheless, we must face the facts. People do not carry such things about with them—especially men. He came by them in no honest way, yon may be sure of that He Is guilty, Marcia—guilty.” “I do not believe it” was the stub born protest “I realize, dear, it is hard for you to own it,” soothed Sylvia. “We hate to admit the faults of those we—we— care for. Still, nothing Is to be gained by remaining blind to them. Perhaps Mr. Heath was horribly tempted to commit this sin. We do not know. We are not his judges. The thing for us to do Is to help him out of the mess he is In. Aid him to escape.” 'Believing him guilty—you would do that?” ‘Surely I would.” 'You mean you would help him to evade the law? The punishment such wrongdoing merits?" “Yea To give him a Sporting chance, the start of those who are after him. You love Stanley Heath. Don’t you want to see him go free?” “Not if he Is guilty.” “Well, nobody Is going !to round up Mt. Heatb If I can prevent It,” assert ed Sylvia, throwing back her head. “If yon won’t help him get away, I wllL He must go In the boat—now-rto* day.” “The boat has gone. Mr. Currier ar rived this morning after you had gone and took the boat'back to New York with him.” 'And the jewels?" ‘Yes, the jewels, too..” aHumpb I So that’s where they are I” “Yes.” “Pretty cute of him to make so neat a get-away! What sort of man was he? A gentleman, like Mr. Heath?” The older woman colored. “Well, no. At leasthe—be—. Oh1 he was polite and had a nice manner —a quiet voice—” “But he was different from Mr. Heath—an Inferior—one who took or ders,” Interrupted Sylvia. “In other words, he is the hands and Mr. Heath the brains of the team.” “How can you, Sylvia?” “Because I must, Marda—because we must both look this affair. In the face. Confess the circumstances are suspicions.” , “They seem to be,” she owned with reluctance. ' ' ‘Have.you, considered them?" Syl via Inquired. Marcia drew her hand across her forehead.“I—I—yes; I have thought them over. I don’t understand them at all Nevertheless, I do not believe Stanley Heath is guilty.” was the proud retort 1You are making a great mistake, if you will pardon me for saying so,” Sylvia responded gently. “You are, de- Uberately closing your eyes and mind ,to facts that later, are bound to cause you bitter unhappiness. Let alone the man’s guilt He has a wife. You seem to forget that.. As Elisha Winslow re marked, you have^already:been,.miser able once. Why be so a second time? Help. Stanley -Heath, to .get out of WU- ton and forget him.” ‘I cannot do either of those things. In the first place, I have given my word to hand Mr. Heath over to the authorities. As for forgetting him— why ask the impossible?” ■ Sylvia’s patience gave way. “Go your own way then,” she snapped. “Go your own way and If by and by you regret It—as you surely will—do not blame.me. Don’t Jblame use, either, If I .do not agree' with you. Stanley Heath shall never remain here and be betrayed to the law. Stick to your grim old puritanism if yon must PU help him get away.” She started toward the stairway. “Sylvia, come back, here!!’ Marcia cried. “I shaU not come back.” • Marcia rushed after her, hut it was too late. Sylvia, was gone.•. « . » •• • • * - Stahley Heath was lying with ex pectant ,face turned: toward the. door, when Sylvia entered. ' : ■ " '* “What's the rumpus?” he demanded. “I guessjoukoow. There-Is Do'use mincing matters or beating about the bush. The jewels have gone and yon must go, too.” The man looked dumfounded. “Don’t misunderstand me, please,” Sylvia rushed on. ‘Tm . not blaming you—nor judging you. I don’t snow why you took them. You may have been tempted beyond your strength That is none of my business." "You believe.I stole them!" “Certainly I do.” “Suppose I didn’t?” , : “I expected you’d say that” was the calm retort. “Let it go that way if you prefer. I don’t mind. What I want to do is to help you to get away.” “Even if I am "guilty.” “Yes.' I just can't bear to have that mean little sheriff who’s after you catch you.” “What’s that?” - “That wretched Elisha Winslow who came here this morning with Eleazer Crocker tagging' at his heels. In some way they had found out about, the Jewels and where you had bidden them. They wanted to come upstairs and arrest you post haste; but Mar cia wouldn’t allow it’’ . “Marcia heard the story, too?* •“Of course.” “Poor Marcia!” “You may well say poor Marcia,” Sylvia echoed sarcasticaUy. “You have made her most uiiiiappy. Oh, Mr.- Heath, Marcia has not had the sort of life that I told you she had. She has been wretched—miserable. Go away before you heap more suffering upon her. I’ll help you get out of town. I am sure we can devise a plan.” “Wait just a moment. What does Marcia say? I think I’d better talk with her first” “Don’t! It will only be a-waste of "The Jewels Have Gone and You Must Go, Too.” time. Marcia Is hard, merciless. Her conscience ' drives her to extremes. Even should you get her opinion,' yon would not follow It But Fll send her to you—If I must Bat remember, I warned you.” “I shall not soon forget that, Sylvia, nor the splendid loyalty you've shown today. I shall always remember It Whatever happens, please realize that I am grateful,” Heath said earnestly. “Bun along now. and fetch Marcia." Jf-was some moments before Marcia answered the summons and when at last she came, it was with downcast eyes and evident reluctance. “Tell me, please, exactly what hap pened down stairs.” Heath smiled. She related the incident tersely; wlthont comment. Stanley Heatb, scrutinizing her w ith keen, appraising eyes, could not but note the pallor of her cheeks, the un steadiness of her lips, the nervous clasping and unclasping of her hands. “And that is all?” he Inquired when convinced she had no intention of speaking further. “That Is all.” “Thank you. Now what do you think It best for me to do? t should ilke your opinion.” “But how can I give a just opinion? I cannot judge,” she burst oiit as If goaded beyond her patience. "I know none of thedtects.” A radiance, swift as the passage of a meteor, flashed across Stanley Heath's face and was gone. “Suppose you yourself had taken these jewels and were placed In this dilemma?” pressed he.. “The case would not be similar at an.*? .“Why not?” “Because—because I should be guUty.” “You mean—you think—” “I do not believe you took the jewels,” was the quiet answer. “MarciaI Marcia! Why don’t yon believe I took them? Have I ever told you I did not take them? Bver led you to suppose me Innocent?” “You have never told ine anything about It.” . The man restrained an Impulse to Imprison her hands In his. . . . . “Suppose I did take them?” he went on In an even, coolly modulated voice. “Suppose-the case, stands exactly as this shrewd-eyed WIIton 'sheriff sus pects it does?

' t I T ’S the same old story, boys and girls. Adventure never shows up when you look for it—always pops up when you least expect it. Take the case of Edgar Columbia. . He chased adventure from. Canada to Mexico and back again, but the scare of his life came to huh when he went into a lunch room one night to get a cup of coffee.That cup of coffee cost Ed five cents, and came doggone ‘near to costing him his life. It was In tbe early part of January, 1923, and Ed was In Port land, Maine. Up there he was a member In good standing'of the International Longshoremen’s union, Local 861, and engaged In the work of loading and un loading the boats that came in and out of Portland harbor. It was a he-man's job, and Ed says he met up with some pretty hard-boiled'characters along the Portland waterfront. “The men who frequent the dock districts In all seaports,” Ed says, arc apt to be a pretty tough lot And Portland was - no exception to the rule. Human flotsam passed through there from the seven seas and the five conti nents. Tbere were toughs—crooks—yes, and murderers—all of them flocking to the shabby waterfront Rialto as beetles flock to a bright light Nice People, These Waterfront Folks. “In Portland these characters could be found on Commercial street, Fore street and the lower part of India street They bung out In dives, dip-jolnts, cheap beaneries and in the back rooms of blind pigs.” That was the sort of locality Ed Columbia worked .In, and his work was as hard as the neighborhood was rough. When a boat was scheduled to leave In the morning, the longshoremen worked all night to get it loaded.In the winter those nights often ran a temperature of 15' or 20 degrees below zero, and at such times the men took tnrns going out for a cup of coffee to keep them warm. It was on one of these nights, about 2:30 a. m.,-.that-Ed.started.out for a cup of hot Java. He went into one of those all-night lunch rooms of India street and sat down at the long, wooden lunch counter on one of those round Then—Soeko—Ed Let Go a Haymaker. Ispinning'stools. There were 15or 20^ tough-looking eggs sitting' around at nearby tables, drinking and playing cards, but they didn’t worry Ed any, be cause Ed was just as tough-looking as they were and weighed 187 pounds In tbe bargain. , Ed ordered his coffee and an egg sandwich. While he was eating his sandwich and sipping his coffee, a tough-looking gent came walking Into the lunch room and, with a string of purses, flopped himself down - on the stool beside Ed. The tough guy had a pretty good cargo of liquor aboard. He was1 as/a matter of fact, at that stage of, drunkenness, where he was. getting meaner and- uglier by the- minute. Biit—well—that was none of Ed’s business. He went right on eating and drinking his coffee as If nothing had ever happened, Ed Takes Abuse as Long as He Can. Suddenly, and for no apparent .reason, the drunk turned on Ed and began calling him every name he could think of. it seems that some man had stolen his girl from him, and Ed looked Uke that man. For a while Ed paid no atten tion to him. ' i' “He -was furlous/* says. Ed, "and. my IndifTerence. didn’t help; any.. Finally, I told him to pipe down and go to h 1. Then he went com.' pletely nuts.” - . Tbe drunk began yelling at the top of his voice, , threatening to kill Ed. Then he Jumped to his feet and made a grab wltb both hands for the stool he had been sitting on. "Those stools were just round seats set In Iron pipes. On the bottom of each seat was. a sort of stem that At loosely Into the pipe—a metal spike pro truding about three-quarters of an Inch—that the drunk picked up. Holding the seat with both hands, he raised it high about his head and tried to drive the spike into Ed’s skull. Ed jumped—and hone too soon, either. The edge of the seat grazed his head, and as the drunk raised it ,for another blow, Ed started back ing away toward the corner of the room. As he backed away ' the drunk followed, raving mad and still yelling bloody murderl“At every lunge,” Ed says, “I backed away, until I was p-nght- tn the corner.' I was afraid to make.a grab foe. that spiked seat because If I missed it, It meant a broken arm or wrist I didn’t know what to do, and fa that cor ner, with no means of escape, the situation was getting pretty desperate*. It Took a Cool Mind and a Sure Eye. “Finally,. I had to do something. And what did I do? Well, remember how be was holding that stool seat with both hands?

Now, the scene has changed „ such an extent that there is little Lnce to get In the government Tough civil service and the bulk of the appointments therefore are of a purely politically-indorsed character. 1 do not mean to say that the Civil CMVlce commission has shut up shop, dtbough It has been virtually de- tamed, hut I do emphasize that as :( September 30—the latest pay roll ficures for the government—the num- bM of civil service workers was only -UshtIy more than half of the total on the government pay roll exclusive of ,he army, navy and Marine corps ,Pd Civilian Conservation corps. The Civil Service commission con dones to issue its monthy statements ou the government personnel but they ere becoming increasingly less reliable Vtause one of the most difficult things to get In Washington these days Is the accurate figure on the number of verfcers employed by Uncle Sam. The commission records are complete as for as they go but they fall to go far enough. At this time, for example, the Cltll Service commission reports that tie government pay roll covers 794,- 457 employees. That figure, however, does not include the vast army of em ployees of the Agricultural Adjust- uieut administration who are scattered Iu erery county In the nation. I have I ieard estimates that the number of I (lese county chairmen, inspectors, In vestigators, etc., exceeds 110,000 but whether that Is too large or too small I cannot be sure for the reason that there Is no way by which the number can be checked. Similarly, It is next to impossible to ascertain the number o( workers In some of the newer agen cies, created under the guise of emer gency conditions, because they too are scattered far and wide but the fact remains that the personnel of the gov ernment has been expanded more rap idly than ever In history and to the Ughest recorded peak even for war fine.• * • He number of employees on June W was given by the commission as 719,440 from which Personnel jt wm be seen there Increases has been an Increase of more than 75,000 In three months. That is, there has been that much of an increase for which the commission has records, but again It must be remarked that the commission has no way of compelling »me of the alphabetical agencies to HppIy it regularly with the number of employees on their pay rolls. The number of rfederal employees aside from the military services when Mr. Roosevelt took office was approx imately 585,000. The number of em ployees on the federal pay roll when Mr. Coolldge retired and Mr. Hoover became President was roughly 545,000. From these the enormous growth of the government bureaucracy is at least hinted if not demonstrated fully. Then, there are more yet to come. Several new agencies were created Mder acts of the last congress and others have since been created by Wcntlve order of the President Take he Rural Rehabilitation admlnistra- for example.

Washington, B. 0. ' tfIe Jobs? It3 Ooomed to v Tt0rkers 3obs-~ * a8aOtiounced ,, LtJJleJrom the start-» It will be remembered, that all federal relief was to end on November I, by which time he figured that made-work would be available for the 3,500,000. This figure was the top most limit for which the federal gov ernment was to be responsible. The states and municipalities were to take care of the remainder of roughly 5,000,000 who had to have help. November I came along and Mr, Hopkins changed the date to December I He did this after consultation with the President who announced with con siderable emphasis that he meant just what he said and that federal relief was going to stop as of December L But it seems the machinery was too ponderous to get In motion In time to absorb all of these workers. Most folks recognized It weeks ago but Mr. Hopkins steadfastly clung to his dream and ,.that dream, like so many others, was dissipated In the thin air and sank almost without trace. • * ’* On top of this Hopkins failure has come a serious problem. It Is serious for the administra-^Jserious tlon not only because Problem of the fact that win ter is coming on and people, must be fed and clothed but It is delicate from the political stand point. In the last few weeks a con siderable number of complaints have reached Washington officials from those who were provided with work. They contend that the government wage rate Is Insufficient to meet their needs. This results from the increased cost of living—higher prices for food and clothing and the other necessaries of life. The administration is being blamed for this condition. Opponents of the New Deal are capitalizing this discon tent They are saying to the folks who find the wages too small that they have been made the victim of New Deal policies, such as tampering’with the currency, nationalizing silver, pay ing bounties for reduced production on the farms and the like. The upshot ot the situation is that not . only those on made-work who are paid by the government and those who are on legitimate pay rolls of In dustry are becoming thoroughly dis satisfied. They are demanding more money. I do not believe anyone can forecast what will happen. One thing Is certain: If Industry must increase wages, consumers will have to pay the price. There will be further Increases In the things we all. buy In event higher wages are obtained from com merce and Industry. And, If the gov ernment raises wages to those on made- work, the drain on the treasury will be correspondingly faster. The taxpayer has to pay this. So all In all there Is a difficult problem to be solved by the President and his relief advisers.• • • Few of us ever stop to think what a job It is to maintain the supply of money In circulation. ft’s Some Omitting any consid- v Big Job eration of the paper currency which keepB the gigantic bureau of printing and en graving operating 24 hours each day and considering only the coins that jingle. It requires the operation of two three great plants to mint our money. The bureau of the mint In the treas ury gave out some figures the other day that seem to me to be most Inter esting. They are interesting because of their size. On the basis of these figures, it Is calculated that there are actually In the pockets of the Ameri can people the following number of coins, each figure being an approxima tion; 1,000,000,000 dimes, 1,400,000,- 000 nickels, 5,500,000,000 pennies, 400,000,000 quarters, 200,000,000 half dollars and -approximately 33,000,000 sliver dollars. These figures furnish an Interesting commentary as well on our present modes of living. They supply a side light on our system of taxation which calls for pennies, nickels and dimes here, there and everywhere as a result of sales taxes. Besides, transportation systems like the street cars call for an exceptionally large quantity of the minor coins like nickels and dimes. One could enumerate a score of fac tors In modern life that compel each of us to carry and use these small coins. ,The mint bureau Is authority also for the Information that even this stupendous snm of minor coins seems Insufficient The mints, accordingly, have been speeded up and they are now working at a rate almost double that of 1934. How much further they will have to expand cannot be fore told, bht as an innocent bystander, I fear that If I have to carry cohw Iq any greater number than I have had them loaded In my pockets, It Is going to mean new business for the tailors. They will have steady work replacing trouser pockets.-• G Wegtera-Newapaper onion* Discipline of Seam en Danger at sea may bring out elJaer the best or the worst traits of human nature.

Hy r '"-a* Ethiopian Warrior® In Mock Cavalry Charge* Prepared- by the-National Geographic Society*. Washington. D. C.—WNU Service. S INCJB the fall of Aduwa1' lm* portarit trading center of north ern Ethiopia, to the' forces of Italy, the towns of Aksum, Ha- rar and Diredawa, and the province of Ogaden have take'n Important places In the news owing to the further move ments of Italian and Ethiopian troops. Perched high In the. mountains, about- 7.000 feet above the sea, and only 12 miles almost due west of Aduwa, Ak sum today Is a small town of only about 5,000 inhabitants, but the mem ory of ancient glories still clings to huge stone monuments that stand there. Aksum was the capital of Ethiopia, according to ancient records, and since time immemorial has been regarded as sacred by-the people. Its.sacred. character has made the city Immune to attack or plundering by brigands or the armies of rival Ethiopian chief tains fighting for the surrounding country. This is not the first time that Italian armies have held Aksum, The Italians conquered the city and nearby terri tory In the war which was ended by their disastrous defeat at Aduwa In 1896. In Aksum Is a church which, accord ing to legehd, contains the original Ark of the Covenant of the Hebrews. The church has been so closely guard ed by the clergy, however, that no scholars from the Western world have been able. to confirm or deny the legend. ’Tradition says that the Ark was'" brought to Ethiopia by Menellk I, son of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Menellk, according to the story, was educated at Jerusalem by Solomon until he reached the age of nineteen; he then went to Ethiopia with the Ark and a large delegation of Hebrews. Ark May Have Been Burned. The original church In which the Ark of the Covenant was supposed to havp been lodged was burned when the city was sacked by a Moslem invader, Moliammed Gran, about 1535, but a new one was erected soon after by the Portuguese, who had visited Ethiopia earlier and had established friendly relations there. There is no record ot whether the Ark was destroyed _ in this fire, or carried to some safe place before the Invasion and later restored to the new church. Native tradition says that Aksum dates back many thousands of years. The earliest authoritative mention of It is In a manuscript written In 67 A. D., In which It Is described as the cap ital of the Aksumlte kingdom, which was the successor of the ancient land of Pnnt and the forerunner of Ethio pia. Punt is mentioned in Egyptian records as a place with which the Egyptians traded for gold, ivory, os trich-feathers,-and other, valuable mer chandise; An inscription In Greek on a column at Aksum Is evidence that what is now Ethiopia had contacts with the ancient Grecian world. Aksum Is well known for Its huge stone obelisks, some of which are still standing while others have ldllen and have been broken. They form a consecutive series from rough, unhewn stones to highly fin ished obelisks of which the - tallest standing, at least until recently, was 60 feet In height and 8 feet, 7 inches In .width. They are believed to have been connected with some form of ancient Semitic sun worship. Aksum Is thought to have been much larger In ancient times than now, for there are traces -of stone foundations of large buildings over a wide area near the present town, some of them probably temples and pal aces. The city of Harar, about 180 miles from, the Red sea and 35 miles south of the railroad from Addis Ababa to Djibouti, ’was originally settled by Arabs who migrated from Yemen on the eastern shore of the Red sea. . Harar. a Walled City. A survivor of the Middle ages of Europe would feel at home In; Harar, for it has long’been the custom to close the five gates In its high stone wall at nightfall. None may leave or enter the city until the following morning, Just as was the former prac tice In European walled cities.. The wall, about three miles In circumfer ence, Is guarded, by 24 towers. Re cent reports from Harar say that the governor of the city has torn breaches In IhP walls /o make It -possible for the Inhabitants to flee .without con gestion at the narrow gates In ease of raids by Italian bombing planes. The streets of Harar are Uttle more than narrow alleys, some of them only three or four feet wide, steep and ill-paved and cluttered with refuse. They wind between one and two-story buUdings built of undressed stone and mud, with thatched roofs. Along the streets-are many small’.shops, some a few steps below the street level, In which work blacksmiths, silversmiths, swordmakers, and other artisans. Harar lost some of Its former com mercial Importance to Diredawa, 35 miles to the north, when the Addis Ababa—Djibouti railroad was built It still remains an important center for caravan trade, however, doing a brisk business In coffee, kat,. (a plant pro ducing a drug much used by-the Mo hammedans), cattle, mules, camels, hides, ivory and gums. About 40,000 people, according to the most recent estimate, normally live In and around. Harar and the city con tains the palace of the governor and several foreign consulates which are of more substantial construction than the huts of the common folk. There are both Christian (Ethiopian) churches and Moslem mosques, and two hos pitals within the walls. Harar and its province stand on a plateau, between 4,000 and 5,000 feet above the sea, which has a pleasing climate and Is extremely fertile. Harar province Is famous for its coffee, much of which. Is exported, a portion of the crop comlng to the United States where ltyfs preferred' by many discriminating coffee drinkers. Coffee grows wild In some parts of Harar province, for Ethiopia was the original home of coffee. . Arabs Founded Harar. The history of Harar goes back to the Seventh century A. D. when the immigrant Arabs from Yemen arrived and founded the city, according to tra dition.’ The' state -Wblehi- Was then or ganized was known as Adel orZaiia. Of this state Harar was the capital In the Fifteenth century. During that cen tury a ruler of Harar, Mohammed Gran (the left-handed), Invaded what was then Ethiopia and conquered a large part of it. No white man visited Harar, so far as is known, until 1854 when an Eng lishman, Sir Richard Burton, spent ten days there disguised as an Arab ia 1875 the region was occupied by an Egyptian army and held for. ten years until troubles In the Sudan forced the withdrawal of the garrison. The province then was under British Influence until 1887 when It was con quered by MeneIik n who later became emperor of Ethiopia and who con quered the Italians at Aduwa In 1896. Diredawa, 35 miles to the north of Harar, can be reached In one day’s journey on mule back or In four hours by automobile over the rough terrain. This city, In many ways the most pro gressive In Ethiopia, is a key-point on the railroad which is Ethiopia’s only outlet to the sea. Formerly Diredawa was the ter minus of the railroad from Djibouti. It is about 180 miles, from the coast and stands on the fringe of the Ethio pian plateau about 4,000 feet above sea IeveL The modern well-built railroad sta tion at Diredawa is much like that tn any small American town, and the city contains the Ethiopian customs house and the residences of several Euro pean employees of the railroad.

GOLDEN TEXT—The people had a mind 'to'work. Nehemiah 4:6. ' PRIMARY TOPIC—When Friends Work. Together. JONIOR TOPIC—Team-Work. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Team-Work.. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC — Co-operation In Religious Work. 1. Nehemiah’s Mission to Jerusalem (Neh. 2).. While performing bis official duty as cupbearer to the Persian king, Ne- hemiah learned of the distress of his brethren at Jerusalem. The walls of the city were broken down, its gates burnt, and the remnant of the cap tives were in great affliction and re proach. This news greatly moved him. He definitely asked God to give the king a favorable attitude toward his project. In answer to his prayer he was granted a leave' of absence from the Persian court and credentials from the king. He journed to Jeru salem and made a survey of the city by night without disclosing his pur pose to anyone. Having thus obtained first-hand information, he walled, the representatives of tbe Jews together and said, “Let us build the walls of Jerusalem.” II. Preparation for the Building (Neh. 3). - Tbe division of labor In this project displayed Nehemiah’s administrative ability. A wise distribution of labor makes difficult tasks easy. Observe some outstanding features of bis ad ministrative work. L He laid'stress upon Indifference. In administrative tasks It Is proper that unfaithfulness should be pointed out Such action serves as a warning to ’the unfaithful and encouragement to the faithful. 2. Help rendered by the, women (v. 12). It is a fine thing for the women to take bold even In building a wall when there are no men to do it 3. Stress laid upon earnestness of some (v. 20). Recognition of fidelity will spur one on to faithful perform ance of his task. 4. Every one built over against bis own house (vv. 10, 23, 28). There is no incentive for exertion quite so strong as that which concerns a man’s own family. 5: Certain guilds of men undertook certain work (vv. 8, 31, 32). Wise ad ministration sometimes calls for sucli alignment of efforts. Men of the same class and occupation usually work best together. III. Hindrances Encountered (4:1- 6:14). 1. Scoffing of Sanballat and Tobiah (4:1-6; Cf. 2:19, 20). The oppressors of God’s servants frequently begin by hurling shafts of ridicule at them. 2. Conspiracy for a sudden attack (4:7-9). vWhen the enemy saw the work, was actually succeeding, they changed from ridicule to an attempt to throw the workmen into a panic. 3. Conspiracy with the Jews (4:10- 23). They sought, by means of the Jews from the outside, to discourage those on the inside. 4. Greed and oppression of the rich (5:1-13). The Jews of that day, like the prof iteers of our day, took advantage of the poor and oppressed them so that they mortgaged their land and even sold their daughters into slavery. 5. Scheme to take Nehemiah’s life (6:1-14). When SanbaIlat and Tobiah failed In every other way, they craftily sought to get Nehemiah away that they might kill him.IV. The Wall Completed (6:15-7:4). So energetically did they pursue their tasks that In fifty-two days the wall was completed. When their ene mies saw that In spite of all their schemes the work was actually com pleted, they were cast down, for they perceived that the work was of God. Upon the completion of the work, Nehemiah set his brother to rule over Jerusalem and gave Instructions as to the opening and closing of the gates of the city. May we learn from this: L That though Gqd’s children are. besought by enemies they should not fear. 2. When beset by enemies we should pray (4:9). a. They set a watch (4:9). b. Men were permittted to be with their families (4:13) and would thus fight better. ’ c. Half worked and half watched, all armed for battle. d. They worked with sword In one hand (4:17). e. Tliey slept In their clothes, ready for attack (4:23). Gennlne faith Is always accompanied with precaution ary means.

On your soap box In Hyde Park you may say what yon please, if you do not advocate crime. But England does not like free speech from another country, through the ether. The British Broadcasting company will not let Marconi talk from Rome to Englishmen over the radio. He might convince them that Jt is preposterous to try to starve out Italy for doing In Ethiopia what Eng land has done In many places. The ruling seems hard on Marconi, consid ering that he invented radio. With out him there would be no “British Broadcasting company.” Those that make betting a business ere often sound In their political Judg-. ments. They are at least cold, calcu lating; sentiment does not cloud their vision. On the Republican Presidential nom ination the betting now stands: Senator William IS. Borah, 8 to I. Governor Landon of Kansas. 10 to I. Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, 15 to I. Col. Frank Knox of Illinois, 15 to I. Governor Holfman of New Jersey, Ogden L. Mills, Senator David A. Reed, all 20 to I.

Two million young or ganized Italians protest against the effort to punish Italy for doing to Ethiopia what England and France, have done to other, more ^nearly civi lized countries. H. G.

Inc,.WNU Service* News Review of Current Events the World Over Japan Suddenly Squelches N orth China Autonomy Scheme— Italy Struggles Against Economic Sane* tions— President Talks to Mayors About Taxes. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © Western Newspaper Union. JAPAN suddenly learned that the autonomy movement in the north ern provinces of China, fostered by the Japanese army commanders, was likely to prejudice her case In the naval con ference soon to open In London. There fore the army ‘ high command in Tokyo told its subordinates on the continent. to “lay off,” and the am bitious schemes of Maj, Gen. Kenji Doi- Jiara came to naught, K- _ .. at least for the pres- Kenjl Doihara ent_ That plotter, who had become known as “the Lawrence of China,’’ quietly departed from Peiping and his early return was not expected.. Thus, for the first time in recent years, the Japanese militarists have •been checked, by the Tokyo govern ment, which informed them that the mission of the Japanese army in Man- cbukuo did not include intriguing for separation of the Chinese provinces and that it would not be permitted to pass south of the great wall without an imperial order. - Instead of the autonomy coup, the Nanking government was told by the Japanese authorities in China that it must institute reforms in the northern provinces. Akira Ariyoshi,. Japanese ambassador, had a long conference with Dictator Cbiang Kai-shek in Nan king, and told the press be bad re ceived assurance that the Chinese gov ernment was adequately prepared to cope with the situation in north China. Ariyoshi said he had also received as surance that Nanking desired to con tinue friendly relations with Japan. Neutral observers In China are not convinced that the autonomy move ment will not be revived at the first opportunity. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, has, gone,, to Warm Springs, Ga., for his an nual visit, and for three weeks will divide his time among rest, politics and work. He was to deliver one speech at Atlanta; and after his return to Washington he will journey to Cliicago to deliver an address on December 9 which probably will be an argument for a permanent AAA. Following his Chicago speech, Pres ident Roosevelt will go to South Bend, Ind.. to accept an honorary degree and make a brief: address at the: Univer sity of Notre Dame. The acceptance of this invitation was considered an adroit political move because of his re cent refusal to take any action con cerning the Catholic persecutions in Mexico. SOMETHING new under the *sun Is •: now being, tried out—an economic war to put a stop to a military war.' Fifty-two nations are united in the Imposition of sanctions against Italy, which became an outlaw na tion on November 18 f by decree of the F League of Nations. Four league nations, all unimportant, re fused to participate. They are Austria, Hungary, Albania and Paraguay. Indirect support is given the league by two non- Gen' 8atl0SlIo member nations, the United States and Germany. Nearly all the world's chief ports are closed to Italian goods, anthexports to Italy of arms, war ma-, terials and a long list of key products has stopped. Loans and credits' for the Italian government, public bodies, corporations 5and individuals are for bidden. Should this momentous action suc ceed, It would seem; that the end of Benito Mussolini and the Fascist re gime in Italy Is in sight Should It fail, the League of Nations fails, the British communications in the Mediter ranean would be threatened, and the peace of the world would be menaced. Standing steadfast Sgalnsti the sane-, tions, Premier Mussolini proclaimed the day on which they were estab-, lished “a day of Ignominy and In iquity,” as had been declared by the Fascist grand council. The day was made a holiday, flags flew from all buildings and there were numerous an gry demonstrations against the mem ber nations-of the league. The fron tiers of Italy and its ports were closed to goods of those nations except for certain necessities. Restrictions of food, fuel and light were put in force. .' It ‘was announced'in'Roine-that'100,-“ 000 of the recently mobilized soldiers would be given a furlough of three months .to aid industrial and agricul tural production. '.There were new negotiations for peace, fostered by. th'e 'British and' Frendi, and the Italian ,authorities were deeply Interested but said the war Would not stop until Italy had .posses-, sion of a large strip of Ethiopia. ’• As for the Ethiopian war itself, Mus solini announced Ian important change in commanders./ Gen. Emilio de Bono was recalled with watm> praise for hav ing achieved his mission “under ex tremely difficult circumstances” and was to be elevated to the rank of mar shal Gen.: Pietro Badogllo, chief of staff, was appointed to succeed De Boho as commander In chief of the in vading armies; - Emperor Haile Selassie made two airplaoe trips to the fighting fronts, visiting Harar and -Diredawa and in specting bis troops in the South. The government at Addis Ababa denied Italian claims that 2,000 Ethiopians had been killed In a terrific battle with Italian filers. The communique said: “Information from the commander of troops In the region of Makale states the recent intensive bombardment of their positions by ten Italian planes caused thirty deaths and slightly wounded fifty, Instead of the 2,000 killed as mentioned in the press com munique from Asmara.” Mayor La Guardia POPE PIUS surprised the world by naming twenty new cardinals, who will be installed at a secret consistory December 16 and a public one Decem ber 19. In the group are fifteen Ital ians, two Frenchmen, one Argentine, one Spaniard and one Czechoslovakian. With these additions the sacred col lege will have sixty-nine members, the largest number In the history of the church and only one short of the full complement. The sacred college will now be composed of thirty-nine Italians and thirty non-Italians. The pope also named the Most Rev. Joseph C. Plagens, recently auxiliary bishop of Detroit, as bishop of the di ocese of Marquette—Sault Ste. Marie, AIich., and Most Rev. Gerald P. O’Hara, auxiliary bishop of Philadelphia, as bishop of the Savannah diocese. XXTHEN a hundred mayors, assem- ' J bled in Washington to discuss the work relief program, called on the President, he talked chiefly about tases, which he said “have grown up like Topsy in ,,this country.” ■ He then announced that he planned to call a conference of city and state officials late In the winter for the pur pose of studying the whole system of taxa tion which, he said, should be simplified. Concerning the mat ter of continuance of relief, Mr. Roosevelt told the mayors: “It is a question that you have to combat My answer, and I am sure yours will-be the same for city gov ernments, is that we do not propose to let people starve. Some people will be surprised to find that the gigantic works program will be substantially carried out by the end of November, just as it was_planned last spring.” The mayors elected F. H. La Guardii of New York president of their an nual conference and Edward J. Kelly of Chicago vice president a position usually leading to the presidency the following year. La Guardia succeeds Daniel W. Hoan of Milwaukee. ThA mayors recommended that the social security act be amended to in clude old age pensions for municipal employees and urged co-operation by cities with the Department of Justice for the suppression of crime. /-'HAIRMAN HENRY P. FLETCHER of the Republican national commit tee Issued a call for a meeting of the committee in Washington on December 16 to fix the time and place of the party’s national convention of 1986 and to consider the apportionment of dele gates. It was reported that Chicago was In the lead among the cities seek ing the convention. Mr. Fletcher also announced the ap pointment of a committee of sixteen prominent industrialists and lawyers to raise a big campaign fund. William B. Bell of New York, president of the American Cyanamid company, will be chairman of the committee, and Charles B. Goodspeed, assstant treasurer of the Republican national committee, Chica go lawyer, will be vice chairman. Many of the members have never before par ticipated actively In national politics. r)AVID A. REED, former senator from Pennsylvania, heretofore considered a possibility for the Repub lican Presidential nomination, has eliminated himself from the competi tion, explaining that he lacks “politi cal sex -appeal." What that is Ue couldn’t exactly define, but he said: “Roosevelt has It But I discovered last yea* that !.didn't. .Pm, not.a.can-. didate for any public office." TESSE H. JONES, chairman of the RFC, let it be known that the New York Central railroad has agreed to repay $15,600,000' which It borrowed from the corporation. The loan, which matures December I, will be repaid out of the road's $25,000,000 cash bal ance. The repayment will be the- largest ever received by the RFC from a railroad. In return the RFC agreed" to extend ohtil July I, 1941, the re maining $11,899,000 which the New Xork Central owes to It.

AMERICAN business generally is pleased with the terms of the new trade treaty with Canada, made public simultaneously In Washington and Ot tawa. . Farmers and the lumber men of the northwest will not like it High tariff advocates in' congress are sure to attack the pact but its terms cannot be affected for three years, even were congress to repeal the re ciprocal trade act under which Presi dent Roosevelt acted In negotiating the agreement It is considered a, trade agreement rather than a formal treaty, and goes into effect January I next- Government officials, foreseeing ad verse reaction in some quarters be cause of some of the sliced American duties, sought to show the pact would lead to greatly increased trade and em ployment which would benefit the country. An analysis of the pact shows that the United States grants concessions to Canada on T9 major commodities, in cluding: Tariff slash on four-year-old whisky from $1 to 50 cents per fifth of a gallon. Reductions 'In duties on specified quotas of beef cattle (from 3 to 2 cents per pound on auimals over 700 pounds); dairy cows (2% to I % cents); cream (5G.6 cents to 35 cents per gallon): white or Irish seed po tatoes <75 to 45 cents per 100 pounds); Douglas fir and western hemlock (50 per cent).

M OCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, W EDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11 '935- llJto the-water. John Hauser Unlikely To Die By Court Order. Winston Salem.—The state can not sentence a man to die of ill health, but opinion here today was that this Is the only death for white haired John Henry Hauser, con victed four years ago of murdering his son in law in an argument over plowing corn. Hauser was 81 when.he was sen tenced to die for shooting Fred Jstyers on their farm near Farming ton, but death’s hand—raised to strike by the jury’s conviction— was caught by the supreme court. Then, as the higher court called for another trial on grounds er rors had been committed Hauser became suddenly ill of pheumonia; and legal death retreated to the shadows the electric chair had thrown across the octogenarian. Now, four years have passed and Hauser has become weaker. His mind, once agile, wanders as he sits brooding in the virtual seclu sion of a private nursing home near here. W . M. Hendren, his attorney, said today: " I have not heard from my client in six months but I presume his physical condition is such as to prevent his appearing in court.” So, the lawyer said, it appears the white-bearded old man will not iace the law again, for the courts have ruled him- unable and incom petent to stand trial. It was on May 28, 1931, but Styers stood outside a screen doer. aPBis^o^^^SeMfngtffafgrouhp was dry ,enough to plow. Hauser said the ground was too wet. They argued further; and the father-ia law raised-his shotgun I only meant to shoot at his feet to scare him.” said Hauser, oldest man evet to be sentenced to die in this state. “I just didn’t get the gun low enough.” But he said he did not regret his act. 1 Styers’ relations have tried to press the case and even have filed suit for $75 000 damages for the death—but the courts are bound into inactivity by the defendant’s invalidism. Hauser sees no outsiders and his family will not talk of bis case. But informed sources said his mind wanders and that he often is in coherent; that he fails to recognize persons with whom he is fatuilar Thus he waits, perhaps unknow- Iy, for death—a death that court at taches believe will come in au in valid's chair, not the chair in the gas cell that has replaced electric ity as the state’s method of ex tracting the death penalty but which as .yet has not taken a victim. Bigamy Charged To Rowan Couple. Warrants have been issued for LizzieChildress Grifian and Marion Griffin of Davie county on charges of bigamy. Th? complaint which was signed by R. B. Childress of Rowan county alleges that Mrs. Cbildressis still the legal wife of the affiant but deserted him about two years ago and was married in A.ex-' ander county in. November, 1934 without going through the formality of a divorce. ■ The woman in the case, accord ing to Mr Childrens the prosecuting witness, ,had a living husband when he married her in 1924 but kepi i< a sepret until about two years ago when she deserted Childress At one time the woman is alleged to have had three husbands, but tbe complaitit--states; has divorced her first husband, deserted her secon ^ husband and is now living with a e r third husband in Davie county. Griffin is indicted on the same charge as it is alleged be had know! edge of the woman’s already iaving a legal husband. - ^ c ^ ^SSftiWWfiS NUMBER 21 Letter From Indiana. |The Most Unpopular Tax Editot Davie Record:-Just a few Resentment against the sales tax words from the old Hoosieir State Beems to be growing by IeapB and to tell, you I am still enjoying the ,founds in North Carolina.

Wheat and oats came through with profitable crops. We had I >ads of fj uits and vegetables. The only thing that seems to be a tail-, ure is tbe pumpkin crop. The National corn husking con test made Indiana a show place this fall. It gave us all a big thrill when nine states sent champion shuckers to compete in the con test in Fountain county about 40 miles from our home. One hund red and ten thousand people were in attendance. This contest goes to show that it takes generously filled corn fields to put on shows of such importance. Indiana ^ there fore can celebrate Thanksgiving as a sturdy corn state. NOAH M. BROCK. ■ Darlington; Ind Charging It Against The Future. The gravity of the, tax problem js^welI iIlustratyi .by figures which- show th3t during;the current year, the federal government’s expendi tures will be in excess of $to.ooo, 000,000. This'is in. addition to the spending of state and local govern meuts, which will be above $9,000 000,000. bringing the total govern ment expense to almost $20,000,- 000,000. . During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1935, the federal govern ment received a little less than $1, 100.000.000 from 'corporation and individual income taxes, $526,222 000 from AAA processing and floor taxes, and miscellaneous internal revenue of $1,674,000,000. The grand total was thus slightly, under fe^OO.000,000., If coljectious during the current year are the same—and there is no reason for believing that they will vary greatly either way—the feder al government will spend close to $7,000,000,000 more than it receives in spite of spite of the fact that cur rent taxes are generally believed to be excessively -and dangerously high. That #7 000.000 000 must be added to our huge and growing public debt. In brief of every three dollars the federal-government is spending today it ‘actually ^ has in hand but'ione ,dollar—and charges the other - two dollars against the future. :* Every ,one of those debt dollars bears interest and over a long period of time, even at low federal, interest rates, interest costs often rival . the principal in size Those costs can be met only by.higher taxes—and, when bonds come .due,. infinitely higher taxes still are iu prospect. Tbe outlook is wholly black—Un lessthe federal government, and all other units of government, make a drastic change in- policy. Outgo must be cut to the bone, the budget must be balanced, and every.'nickei possible must be applied to reducing the debt load, and eventually reduc- This form of taxation is under fire in other States where it prevails. V Only recently the New Jersey as sembly voted out the sales tax in obeditnce to an overwhelming man date of the people. - [’Repeal of the law has been recom mended in Mississippi by Governor Connor. Constitutionality .of Ohio’s gener al sales tax is being hotly contested. • Thus, it may be Been, that this= tax, heralded by its advocates as fair and inescapable, is proving po- ^ pillar in few states of the 24- which jhave installed it. - The General Welfare Tax League provides the interesting statistics that a citizen with an income of one thousands dollars will spend sixty per cent of it for commodities on which the average sales tax will fall. While the man with one million a y|ar will Bpend no more than one percent in purchases which are tax- a_6le. ;.Tbe sales tax was imposed swiftly in; North Carolina.and with equal swiftness it will go. E x 'I — -------- Cjnly Few Independent. ‘A reliable source informs us that |t of the average 65 men over 65 years of age only five have independ- egt incomes large enough to live on d|cehtly without working, that 28 ci^tmue to work and th^t 67 aie ^pendendentruponrelatives1Mends' or piiblic eharity for a living. Needless to say that all these m e n started out with high hopes and en visioned an old age in comfort, re tired on the savings he had made during his productive years, and erjoy himself, without worrying and without looking to relatives or pub lic institutiuns for heip. Only five of the average hundred achieve that goal. Ninety-five fail to reach it. Unpleasant as they are, these are facts and they will be faced by those of foresight and courage who are not yet too old to make the most of tbe lesson they teach. There is no royal road to old age independence and it can be reached only by a plan which uses some of the dollars earned with comparative ease to care for need and ambitions when dollars come hard and when earning power has vanished with the years.—Ex.

Good News From Ne- Just as we predicted a few weeks ago, when Senator Norris, the old Nebraska traitor announced that he would, not be a candidate to succeed himself, th at: there were strings tried to his announcement- and that he would again be in the race, word come out from Washington that Norris at the insistence President Roosevelt would again be a candi date, in fact Norris is now denying that he ever made the statmement attributed to him that he would not run again. Roosevelt has stated that Norris should be kept in office as long as he lives and has given him his unquali fied and has given him his unquali fied endorsement. Andwhyshould be endorse him? Didn’t Norris after maneuvering himself into the nomi nation by the Nebraska Republicans, getting his name on the ticket and running as a Republican bolt Her bert Hoover and worked for Al Smith in 1928 and asrain in 1932, re fused. to support- Hoover and did everything in his power for the elec tion of Franklin D. Roosevelt? Roosevelt’s outspoken endorse ment for the re-election of Norris next year is accepted bv poli'ieal ob servers as indicating that Roosevelt is again angling with his new deal fallacies, for the’ votes of what is known as insurgieht Rspublicans like Norris, LaPaIIette1 Hiram- Johnson and others of :that stripe. Roose velt thinks by hitching his wagon to the Norris kite that he can carry Nebraska and the same-can be said of other states, like Californi, where Hiram Johnson again comes up for But here is the good word from NebraBk'a. From North Platte comes the following refreshing news: “A split in the ranks of Nebraska Democrats appeared possible from leaders as to whether Senator George W. NorriB was entitled to Democra tic support if he seeks reelection next year. Governor R. L Cochran, a Demo cratic, join with President Roosevelt in asserting the veteran independent Republican should be kept in the Senate ‘as long as. he liveB.’ ^ But Keith Neville, of North Platte, Nebraska’s Democracratic national committeeman, said Norris was not entitled to Democratic aid if he runs as a Republican or an in dependent, ’[f Senator Norris should enter tbe Democratic primary and be no minated, he will be entitled to the support of Nebraska Democrats,, Neville said, ‘but he is not entitled to support if he runs as a Republi can or an independent against an able and honorable Democratic sena torial candidate, who represents the I' views of the Democrats of Nebraska on the issues.’ ’’ ing tbe tax load. $35,000,000jSpent For Relief In' S.

Speaking before a dinner of the New York state economic council, civic group, Mills scored the govern ment for “its excessive spending, its alphabetical experiments and its monkey business with money.” "Already we have incurred a bur den that will weigh heavily on the American family for many years to come.” he said. “You cannot spend $22,000,000 OOO in three years, or al most as much as our government, spent in the 124 years from 1789-1913 and not pay the price. ‘The NRA by forcing up costs and prices-before the attainment of vol ume definitely; curtailed prog.tiGtjK)h. and 'reemployment Under no cir. cumstances should it be revived.

The Children’s Home Society of North Carolina, Incorporated, locat ed at Greensboro, N.

During these years over 3000 litte ones have been accepted into their care and then placed in approved foster homes. This work is financed entirely by voluntary donations from child lov ing citizens of North Carolina The Society makes only one each year— during the holiday period I. from Thanksgiving through Christinas, The Children’s Home numbers among its patrons substantial peo ple of the State who have recog nized the value of the Society’s work and responded with generous financial support. The Society maintains a plant at Grsensboro with complete facilities to operate In all branches of child care. The infants placed with: the Society receive careful examination before they are offered to foster parents. ! The Society operates within a budget and is clear of debt. Every dollar received during the holiday appeal will go into new work V now being planned for 1936. With im proved conditions throughout the State the Society contemplates an increase of donations and if hopes are realized will enlarge operations in 1936 to meet the maximum de- mands.for their type of service.

Hayes meted out in prison, reformatory and jail sen tences more than 50 years of time in the present term of federal court. Estimating the earning power of each man at $1000 per year, that is a loss of around $50,000. not counting tbe embarrassmedt and the hardships worked on families of prisoners.' Still there are many who persist in violating the laws of the Uqitfd States in the face of a court that metes out prison sentences to so many offenders and knowing the efficiency of the alcohol tax bureau investi gators. Some of the offenders, otherwise honest; go into the illict business of making moonshine liquor because of adverse circumstances and with the hope that they can make some money quickly to get themselves out . of a financial hole. If they are successful with the first attempt they continue with the hope of piling up a fortune by operating on a bigger scale and sooner or later they are In tbe toils of the law and have nothing. For some offenders who are caught have no court records and do . have good reputations. Judge Hayes has given them a chance to make. good, under probation. This means .that they are to report once each month and show tbat they have not violated the law. It is a wonderful chance for such people to reform but woe unto them if they do not change their ways for ibey must pay dearly if . they are caught again. Although all laws are not perfect and their enforcement is not-spot less, the chances of gaining some thing worthwhile by breaking them are slight indeed—Wilkes Patriot, We always hate to see a fellow disappointed, but we fear our-good friend.

With every issue of the Literary Digest the democrats get just a little madder than they were: The straw vote shows that the New Deal is on its last legs. There are several of the bovs in Davie who are going to throw their hats in the ring for the various county offices next spring The water will begin to boil about Easter time. Well, why worry shout the matter until after the' holidays. Senator Josigh Bailey seems to be getting uneasy lest he lose his seat at the pie counter.

Why shouldn’t it .MrrRoosevelt is the man who is responsible for the return of the sa lootis and liquor houses. So far but .little has been said about who the Republicans are go ing to nominate for Governor of North Carolina next year. T h e: Record would be glad to see Charlie Jonas, of LincoInton1 get the nomi nation. He is a geod man and would make a strong campaign.. Democrats in this section are not very well pleased with the straw vote being taken by the Literarv Digest. L iteit returns show that 44 per cent of the votes cast were for the New Deal and Roosevelt, and 56 per cent were against Roosevelt and the New Deal. In the Digest bonus. That being the case, Presi dent Roosevelt must be tied up with big business, for if we are not badly mistaken - Roosevelt vetoed th e vote one year ago the New Deal was bonus bill when Congress passed it last year.

His work has at- MCted comparatively Uttle pubUc st ation although throughout the nego- ,Hons individual economic Interests Stood to gain or lose depending !Ta their lines of business have made Swnrn their feelings quite emphatical- I Sis of these trade agreements, now *lled trade treaties, had been consum- lated in this manner. When the sev- agreement came along, however, Z story was different. That was the treaty with °«r northern neighbor, Canada. It Is Impossible here to set forth the ,Ist „f commercial products encom- !Ued In the new trade agreement Sth Canada. I doubt if most of the • oeonle of tills country ever will know details of that treaty. Ey the nature of thin"s, few persons can be inter ested In nil of the items. 'But, I do' Tot lelieve that it is the question of individual interest In the entire list that ought to concern us. Asidefrom the policy involved in the negotiation •id agreement on tariff concessions, He importance of the Canadian treaty to the average Individual lies In the cue or two, or half a dozen at most, Ptems that affect each one personally. • I do not mean to say that the policy Involved is unimportant The contrary In decidedly true. From a political standpoint of course, it is general policy that will be debated; from an Individual standpoint It will be the dl- tect effect that execution of that pol icy has on each of us that WiU 'deter mine our ultimate views and to that jjtent determine whether we will be for or against the general policy of re ducing tariffs enacted against certain tinds of Imports.• * * The new agreement with Canada takes effect January I—provided the Canadian parliament Had ratifies It No such FreeHand ratification is neces sary in this country. The treaty was negotiated by Mr. Hull and President Itoosevelt under the au thority granted by congress In legisla tion passed a year ago which gave to the President the privilege of working cut trade treaties without further congressional sanction. That law re- Ilritled the President In only one way, smely, the requirement that an in crease or reduction of tariff rates in cluded In those trade treaties may not escced 50 per cent of the rate fixed in the present tariff laws. So it is seen that Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Hull had virtnally complete authority. It will operate for three years and, as far as I have been able to discover, it will be effective after Canadian ratification and there will be nothing anybody can do about it, be it goo'd or bad. In making public the agreement ne gotiated by Mr. Hull with Prime Min ister MacKenzie King, the President asserted his belief that the agreement will initiate or revive a flow of com merce back and forth across our northern frontier In a manner that will he most helpful He considered that the agreement would mean additional markets for some of our products and therefore additional work for some of our unemployed. The Canadian prime minister was of the opinion that Inthisagreement a long step ha'd been taken toward healing a breach that has existed between the two countries tor CD years. He was hopeful, like •resident Roosevelt, that the channels of trade again will be filled, perhaps 2 to the levels of the boom days of IM and 1929, but would again carry satisfactory volume. ]t will be recalled that our 6hlp- 8JtntS to Canada In 1930 amounted to 8 ut $900,000,000. The depression ® those shipments to approximately fWO’OOO last year. So, If the pre- “"Hons of the President and Mr. Mac- King are In any way fulfilled, a 808Slderable traffic is due to begin the operation of this new treaty. Any discussion of the treaty, how to!'

Ised with the com- Pfovlsions “ commUnities against *eba»eheartt£ ! treaty' Llkewise, those provisions praised from .other sections..-tThus,,from the political standpoint we see developing a fine old fight over th'e tariff. Tariff questions are and always have been sectional questions. Indus trial communities want to be protected against Inroads of foreign competition where labor is cheaper. Agriculture wants to be protected against-imports from bountiful producing lands in those countries where vast open spaces'and high productivity exist at the mini mum of cost Importers and consum ers of imported products always have fought and always wiU fight to have low tariff rates, so that the things they buy may enter this country at the low est possible price. With reference to the Canadian treaty, these same- con ditions exist Barly outbursts indicate that cattle raising communities and dairy produc ing sections are up in arms because the treaty reduced a tariff protection accorded against Imports of cattle and cattle products and the products of the dairy. Lumber interests are upset It is true that the lumber market In the United States has been In the doldrums for several years and naturally the lumber people do not want to have Canadian shipments absorb what little market they have. These are just, a few of the com plaints. They are offset partially at least by the praise and the hopes of some other phases of agriculture such as fruit and vegetable growers who feel that they can now market their products in Canada. Without even a careful analysis of the more than seven hundred items involved In the treaty, it'is to be seen that there will be pos sible markets available after Ianuary I to a number of agricultural lines and to some industrial Interests. Yet It remains, as I said earlier, for the pas sage of time to disclose exactly wheth er the net result will be favorable ,to. us commercially or whether, the Cana dians have put over a fine bargain from their standpoint > * ■* , * • ;A11 of the discussion about'the Cana dian treaty, however, brings back memory. As a result Political of these recollec- Dynamite tions, I dug back theother .day into. the congressional debates of 1911 when a Canadian reciprocity agreement was under consideration, backed by the late William Howard Taft After read ing those debates, particularly the ob servations of. the late and distin guished Champ Clark of Missouri and Representative George Norris, now a senator from Nebraska, I could not fail to realize-the political dynamite embodied in the new course of inter national trade relations adopted by President Roosevelt It was the Cana dian reciprocity proposal that defeat ed Mr. Taft for re-election to the Pres idency. It was, Indeed, that controver sy that caused the organization of the Bull Moose party and that sent, Mr. Taft Into political oblivion. I am not predicting here that the same consequences are in store for President Roosevelt but it is fair to recall, It seems to me, that the reci procity proposal of 1911 burned the fingers of every political leader who touched it The cases are not exactly comparable nor analogous. Mt. Roose velt has retained a number of tariff duties which were swept aside In the proposed. Taft recoproclty arrange ment. He is therefore fortified to that potent But you may be sure that uiose who sponsor the present Cana dian agreement are going to meet the 'same sort' Of fight* that' was' made against the Taft proposal Then there is in the current treaty circumstance another factor to be considered. It links back to the Champ Clark Observations which were made on February 14, 1911. At that time, Mr. Clark was expressing the view that the reciprocity agreement constituted a step at least In the direction, of uni versal peace. In the debate just men tioned, Mr. Norris asked Mr. Clark to elaborate on his view concerning the value of the agreement as an instru ment of peace. “I wanted to ask the gentleman a question along the line of universal peace,” said Mt. Norris. "As I under stand it, the gentleman favors the bill for at least one reason—tbat it will have a tendency to bring Canada into the Union.” ..“Yes,” Mr. Clark replied. ‘I have no doubt about that. I 'do not have any doubt whatever that,day ,Is not far distant when Great Britain will joyfully see all of her NOrth American possessions become a part of this re public. That is the way things are now tending."So, if the controversyover-.the pres ent Canadian tariff agreementbecomes violent, I think it is fair to expect that again we will hear the question dis cussed whether the United States 4s seeking to annex Canada-Jto hlahe Canada part and parcel of the United States. Of course, as far as anJon can see today, annexation of Canadaf^ inconceivable but the incident ^ Iated here simply to show how fa- reaching such ctmtroversles may oe- C W»«tern Newspaper Uaion. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * S T A R D U S T * jMovie • Radio *W ^ * * ★ By VIRGINIA VALE*** E VER- since “It Happened One Night” WJjs such a success the film companies have been trying to catch that same happy combi nation. Paramount has done pret ty well in “Hands Across the Table,” with Carole Lombard and Fred MaeMurray—perhaps you heard that bit of It that they broadcast some time ago. It’s a good picture. "Mutiny on the Bounty” is another one. Just by way of relief, that one doesn’t be long to the ‘Tl Happened One Night” school. “She Couldn’t Take It” is an other effort to repeat the popular suc cess; it’s the story of . the gangster who re tires, and becomes guardian of another man’s family, with George.Raft as the. gangster and Joan Bennett as the lovely heroine. . Incidentally, Joan was In New York, helping to cele brate the arrival of another son In the family of her sister Joan Bennett, and brother-in-law, . Barbara Bennett and Morton Downey —and is Downey a happy man these days! Singing like the birds—and not just before a microphone, either! The news reels hare a way of step ping In and making regular dramatic pictures look rather drab. A current example Is the excellent plcturlzatlon of the Notre Dame-Ohlo State university football game of recent date—It’s more thrilling than any game-ever staged, for a picture, to let the hero rush In and save the game for his team at the last minute. And some of these days we’ll be seeing those same news reel shots used as the dramatic high light of a drama of college days; coupled with close-ups of the hero, they’ll be perfect! Rosalind Rusell is arriving, and rap idly. She rushed to New York for a brief vacation, which coincided with the first showing there of “Rendez vous,’' and found herself a celebrity; went to the opening of a new play and the audience, made up largely of celeb rities, made a great fuss over her. One more girl who worked and worked, and then suddenly got a break—thanks to Myrna Loyt In this case. —fr it begins to look as If “Little Lord Fauntleroy” would be quite a picture, with Freddie Bartholomew as the hero, Jackie Cooper playing a second small boy and C. Aubrey Smith and Dolores Costello supporting them. —k— Seems that there were. complaints because ,every Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers picture bad practically the' same story. So now we’re promised that when “Follow the Fleet” is finished (and can you see the nimble-footed Fred as a tough gob?) they’ll do an original called “I Won’t Dance’’ which has a new story; In other words, the program’s going to be different! Or if you’re a BIng Crosby fan and want to know what HIS plans are, so far as pictures are concerned, here’s what Raramount has lined up for him for the next year: “Turn Off the Moon,” “Rhythm on the Range,” and an original story that has no title as yet . —fr— Once again the motion picture indus try is wondering if Samuel Goldwyn has second sight when it comes to sizing up talent; he has developed so many stars that his failure In the, case of Anna Sten really doesn’t count This time it’s Frank Shields, the ten nis player, who’s to be GoIdwyn ma terial. Tall, dark, handsome and tem peramental, Shields was one of the best American tennis players for years —and made an excellent showing at Forest Hills this year. Metro put him under contract—but It turned out to be one of those “what of it?” contracts. He just didn’t seem ;to-get.anywhere, .and they finally let him go. He met Mr. Goldwyn later at a party —and the first thing he knew, he’d signed a new contract Maybe as an actor he’s Just a swell tennis player, and maybe he’s star material But GoIdwyn has a way of being right SS Fred Astaire.

Now, we were climbing an almost pre cipitous grade, now, slowing down for a dangerous curve, while every little while as a stretching plain was reached, the steady hand upon the throttle sent the long line of cars speeding like an arrow through the bright December sunshine We were on our way to spend Christ mas with Uncle Jerry and Aunt Emma.' They had sent a hearty invitation for us to come out, and now we were al most there. I held my breath at the !sheer beauty of the scene that stretched before our eyes. Mountain peaks that seemed to touch the sky, can yons dropping thou sands of feet, lakes covered by glitter ing thicknesses of Ice, vivid green pines, looking like giant Christmas trees. I had never seen, never even visualized anything so beautifuL A loud shriek from the big whistle, a slow crunching and grinding of brakes, and our train came to a stop. Uncle Jerry, rosy' and smiling,; stood waiting upon the platform,, giving, dad, mother, Helen and myself a true west ern welcome. “Aunt Emma is all .excited about your coming,” he beamed. . A short drive through a wonderland of beauty, and the big sprawling ranch house came In sight Aunt Emma stood In. the doorway, and a cowboy, who was grooming a-pony, looked curi ously at us. I wanted. to~look around before going indoors, but tantalizing odors from, the kitchen made me sud denly realize how hungry I was. All was bustle and excitement, hurry and preparation. Even the horses and ponies. In the. corral seemed excited,'as if they sensed something in the air. The afternoon. and evening went by on wings. Christmas morning dawned upon a world that looked even lovelier- than it bad yesterday. A million jewels hung on bush and tree, a sky of turquoise stretched itself across the snow-cov ered mountains and valleys. Inside the ranch house a fire of crackling logs threw its ruddy glow over the living room. The dining table was spread with tempting foods. Break fast of home-cured ham and sausage, fluffy flapjacks and syrup, steaming hot coffee with thick cream. Then a short drive to the little church, an inspiring talk by the pastor, .and the strains of the old and beautiful Christmas hymns; neighbors and friends stopping U n cl e Jerry and Aunt Emma to wish them “Merry Christmas.” . Back again through the cleaq frosty air, and la ter the big Christ mas dinner. Golden- brown turkey and dressing on a big blue platter, a huge mound of snowy potatoes, native vege tables and relishes, tempting pieces of mince and pumpkin pie. And best of all, an appetite , that only the moun-, tains can give. A hundred things to see during the afternoon, the horses and ponleB, the ranch equipment, the silver fox farm tbat Uncle Jerry had just started, and a special show the cowboys put on for our benefit. Food again in the evening, and af ter, a happy time around the fire. The cowboys standing around the piano, where Helen played the old Christmas carols, tbelr lusty voices joining In the beautiful words. I thought ' of the beautiful setting outside as they sang; Silent Night, Holy Night! All is calm, a ills bright, , Round yon Virgin Mother and ChildHcly Infant so tender and mild. Sleep in heavenly peace! I stole outside for a few minutes as they went on to the next lines. A new moon was sending its silvery light down upon the world, a million starS added their smaller gleam. Around me I felt the faint, mysterious noises of night In the open places, tbe stirring of unseen, unknown things. My lips and heart joined in the words that floated out from the warm, lamp-lit room. Silent Night, Holy Night! Shepherds quake At the sight! Glories stream from heaven, afar. Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia; Christ the Saviour is horn! I have spent many a happy and memorable Christmas, but never one as wonderful, as unforgettable, as this Christmas spent In the Rockies. * Western Newspaper Unlen.

WAR’S MENACE * By VISCOUNT CECIL THE nations, In America no less than in Europe, are preparing for further war. More money is at the present time being spent for armies, navies and air forces than ever be fore In peacetime. Moreover, one great country, in defiance of' ail treaty obligations, has launched a war of conquest against another. And yet the contest which finished In 1918 was a war to end war. We are drifting toward another world catastrophe worse even than the last Can nothing be done to prevent lt? Certainly good Intentions and pious aspirations are.not enough. No doubt the peace-loving nations will wish to remain at peace. But we found In 1914, and you found three years later, that In spite of our wishes we were driven into war. What happened then may—nay, will—happen again unless we- take adequate steps to prevent IL PRESENT AMERICAN ECONOMY By SECY. HENRY A. WALLACE! THERE Is as much need today for a Declaration of Independence as there was for a Declaration of Inde pendence In 1776. The typical New England fanning community of the Eighteenth century was 95 per cent economically inde pendent of the rest of Bie nation and the world. The rest of the colonies might have ..suddenly- disappeared, and the community could continue to function. Of how many, communities In America could that be said today? Merely to ask the question is to an swer It And if farmers, with the help of government should, today achieve even a 50 per cent economic self-sufficiency, as compared with their present 20 to 30 per cent the result would be the starvation of many millions in our cities. Achange of this sort might .be brought about slowly, but brought, about rapidly lt would prove a catastrophe. GREAT BRITAIN’S NAVY By DAVID LLOYD SEORSB IHAVE gone through the figures of the Admiralty and make this state ment: In effective fighting force of battleships, battle cruisers and cruisers we have a more powerful fleet even than the United States and far more than any other nation. In addition, our guns are far bigger than those of any Continental power. AMERICAN TRADITIONS SOUND By DR. HANS KOHN THE philosophy of • Fascism- glori fies the nation, to which the in dividual Is expected to sacrifice, him self; therefore the gesture by Mus solini, to Impress the Italian people with the great traditions and the splendor of their country’s conquests. I believe that the courage which is asked of youth In a democracy, the courage to think things out for them selves rather than to depend blindly on their leaders, Is a far greater courage than is asked of young peo ple going into a war. It was the traditions of Germany, of Russia and of Italy—the tradition of obedience to a kaiser, a czar, a king, which made lt possible to set up Fascism, Communism, Nazism. The traditions of the American people, on the other hand, tbe prin ciples of liberty, justice and equality for all of which your ancestors fought In 1776, would prevent such a happening In America. Youth, ,think fur yourselves, even though Ameri can Ideals have never been complete ly realized. ' FAITH IN THE LEAGUE By GEtN.

Industrious bandits, without fear of Japan's efficiency, began looting stores and Chinese mer chants begged Ja pan to restore or der. Eleven Japan ese divisions quar tered outside the Great Wall are ready to move In, Artlun Brisbane and j apan w„j hardly have the heart to stay out un der such circumstances. Later Japan will not have the heart to stay out of the Philippines. Japanese confidence In the sun goddess seems Justified. The drift is Japan's way, with west erners busy planning to kill each other. There are, California tells you, sev eral kinds of gold: yellow gold that took crowds to California in 1849; an other yellow gold that grows on orange, lemon and grapefruit trees; the white gold water power rolling from the mountains, to produce black gold, pow er and fertility, and the oil In the ground. Mussolini's determination to keep, oil flowing Into Italy, even at risk.of Eu ropean war, pbows that oil is more important In war now than yellow gold. It moves great tanks, keeps-the- planes In the air; It means motion, and successful motion means victory. Mighty Is the airplane In northern Brazil, where the “elbow” sticks out Into the Atlantic. Soldiers said by the Associated Press to be guided by Com munists decided to run the govern ment and make it better.

It might have been sold to a Rus sian czar, Turkish sultan or Ethiopian emperor for use In a crown, “to In crease majesty.” But czars and sul tans have vanished, Ethiopia’s ruler is short of cash. The big diamond will be cut Into small pieces and sell for about $1,500,- 000. The largest “piece” will weigh 100 carats, the rest from 10 to 50 carats. Interesting opportunity for deserving Bollywood stars. - John S. Ciemlengo, sixteen, sen tenced to die next January in the elec tric chair, helped George H. Hllde-' brand, twenty-six, to rob and murder an old poultry farmer. Sixteen seems rather young for an electric chair candidate, but the judge and jury felt that by disposing of the young murderer now they would' avoid robberies and murders In the future. Recent history of youthful criminals makes that probable. “Foreign observers” in EhbIopia be lieve that Ethiopia Is fighting a lost cause; also that, as’the number of wounded Increases and the case looks more and more hopeless, there might be a general massacre of whites. If this should happen the “50 to I” gen tlemen of the League of Nations would have themselves to blame. Tbe “sanctions” and boycott will not prevent Italy defeating Ethiopia, but they do make the Ethiopian rulerover- confident, persuading him to sacrifice Uves unnecessarily. Tbe order for steel made Jn Gerr many, to be used In New York’s Tri- borough bridge, whlcb would' use 'tfit* payers’ money to make JObs abroad, has been! canceled definitely. So all is well that fends wclL there.. The response to that piece of fool ishness In the way of publicity was' emphatic. News Review of Current , Events the W orld Over CIiino-Japanese War May Come From Autonomy Move* ment—Oil Embargo Against Italy Postponed— President Busy With the Budget. By 'EDWARD W. PICKARD © Western Newspaper Unton. Gen. Chiang Kai-shek DOWNRIGHT war between the Chinese armies of Dictator Chlang Kai-shek and the Japanese appeared almost' certain when the autonomy movement In north China was, revived In eastern Hopei and Chahar provinces by Yin Ju-keng, the ad ministrative commis sioner and friend of Japan. Leaders of the rest of the region were undecided on their course, but Jap anese ,troops began to pour In by the train* load. Three thousand of them with full war equipment arrived In Tientsin, and the garrison- at Peiping was more than doubled. The Fengtai railway junc tion a few miles -from Peiping was seized, Colonel Takasashl, military at tache, asserting this was necessary be cause the rolling stock was being moved south, threatening the isolation of the Japanese forces. In Nanking officials said the Na tional government was determined to meet with force any attempt to force autonomy on the territory south of Hopei and Chahar provinces, and the executive Yuan proclaimed five sweep ing reforms designed to stop the spread of the movement. Chiang was hurry ing large bodies of troops to the north ward. He also, sought to hold the sup port of the Sliantung war lord, Htin Fu-chu, by entrusting him with the defense of the northern' Honan ,and. Shantung frontiers and promising Min money and supplies, If needed, to stein invasion. Han Fu-chu of late has been wooed assiduously by the Japanese. Wang Ching-wel, premier and for eign minister of the Nationalist gov ernment, resigned as president of the cabinet He has not fully recovered from the recent attempt to assassinate him. BRAZIL-1 was experiencing... another revolt, In the northern part of- the country. Latest advices said the rebels had control of the city of Natal and that a hot fight was on for possession of Perhambiica The uprising was laid to the Communists and was'be- IIeved to be led by Luis Carlos Prestes, Communist leader for all of South America. It was said he planned to spread the movement all over Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Chilei Under command of Gen. Manuel Rabelo, the federal troops, army and navy airplanes and two cruisers were hurriedly sent northward to combat the rebellion. Several days later a revolt broke out In Rio, de Janeiro, the capital, despite extraordinary precautions. The prin cipal participants there were the avia tion forces. They seized the aviation field but government troops recaptured It and it was announced this outbreak- had been suppressed. Finally the Brazilian government an nounced that the revolt In the North also had been crushed and that 188 persons had been killed In the four days of fighting. THERE was terror throughout Ger many when Hitler started what ap parently was to be another “purge.” Hundreds of persons were arrested.and taken to prison or concentration camps, those taken including some minor offi cials of the Nazi party In Berlin. Many others were known as Socialists. The Association of Nationalistic, Jews, com posed of war veterans, was suppressed and its leader jailed. Premier Laval Bishops of England's Anglican church, the archbishop of Canterbury leading, denounce Chancffiior Hitler’s persecution of German Jews, as they well may, and they hope that Chrls- tiaos In Great Britain and elsewhere will “exert their: influence.” © kins Features SyndIcateL lno.WNU Sendee. NOVEMBER ‘29 had been set as the date for a meeting or the League of Nations sanctions committee to con sider the impositon of an oil embargo against Italy, but Pre mier Laval and British Ambassador George Russell Clerk, after a conference In Paris, recommended that the session be indefinitely postponed, and this ac tion was taken. The statesmen'feared-early oil sanctions would se riously aggravate the political situation, and Laval thought if he were given more time be might bring about the conciliation of the Italo-Ethl- opian quarrel. There were good, reasons for the un easiness of the French and British gov ernments. BeMto Mussolini had blunt ly told ithe world that the imposition of an oil embargo would mean war In Europe, the warning being - given through' his ambassador '- to France, VlttoifIo CerniH.' "Furthermore," there was doubt in London and Pdri8 con cerning the abllty ot the United States government to prhvent the shipment or oil to Italian ports. " In Washington it was reported that Ambassador Au- gusto .Rossq bad discussed the matter with Secretary of State Hull, suggest ing .that attempts ’ to choke off exports of OlL copper, cotton' and other com mercial articles did not constitute “Orthodox” neutrality. Emperor Haile Selassie made two airplane flights'to the fighting fronts Sec’y Ickes in Ethiopia and cheered up his forces so that their resistance to the invasion was measurably stiffened, especially InJhe South.- The-government, at .Ad dis Ababa announced that its armies bad driven the Italian troops back from Gorahat, recapturing the town: oi Gerlogubl by encircling movements.

SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR ICKES has revived the controversy between the New Dealers and the Mg steel corporations concerning steel prices. Mr. Ickes said there was “prima facie evidence of collusion’ In identical bids on a Florjda public works project The PWA ad ministrator said the four companies bid ding $185,000 each on 3,300 tons of steel fot a Miami dock—inland. Carnegie, Jones & Laughlin, and Kalman (a Bethlehem subsidi ary)—were the same that submitted identical bids on an ocean terminal.at MoreHead City, N. C., and,the Tribor ough bridge in New York city.

Representative Jqmes P.

Treasury Morgenthau, Acting Budget' Director Bell and Mark Shieldk clerk of the appropriations committee. The President told the press they were making distinct progress in ar ranging the federal finances, having already cut the departmental estimates by $400,000,000.

Nice, Republican governor of Maryland, declared In Chicago that America’s constitution is no more in need of change than are the Teh Com mandments.

Condition (Ezra if.'lO). .Tje prepared bis heart to scab the law of the Lord, to do IL and to teach Israel the statutes, and judgments. II. The Word of God Read (Neh. 8*1*3)" "I The eager assembly (v. I). The people gathered together'and requested Ezra to bring th‘e book of toe law. God had touched their hearts, creating within them a yearning for his Word. 2. A representative assembly (v. 2). God’s Word should be taught to all classes—men, women, and children. The Spirit of God can speak through bis Word to the whole family sitting In the same pew. 3. An appreciative assembly (v. 3). So eager were they to know Godis Word that they did not get tired, al though toe lesson lasted for five or six'hours. When people realize that God is speakinfe torough his Word they will give attention. ' III. The People’s Attitude Toward God’s. Word Xvri 4-6).' L Dufe reverence shown (w. 4, 5). When Ezra opened toe law all the people fetopd iip out of respect for God’s Word. 2. Tliey Joined heartily In prayer (ri fl). As Ezra led them In prayer they united In saying, “Amen, Amen,”bowing their faces to the ground. IV. God’s Word Being Interpreted (w. 7, 8).The attitude of the people toward God’s Word : largely depends-upon the minister. Proper dignity and solem nity should be manifested by the (nin- lster when reading the Holy Scriptures. 1. He", stood iip where the people couldisee him (v. 5). 2. He read distinctly (v. 8). The mapner In which many read the Script ures is greatly to their discredit 3. He caused the people to under stand (v. 8). The supreme business of the minister and teacher is to make the Word of God so plain that old and young can understand. The' explana tion should be clear and definite. -V. Tfie Effect of. Applying God’s Word to the i-ife of the People (vv. 9-18)1 1. Conviction of sin (v. 9). The divine' method of convicting men of their sin IS to have God’s JVord ap plied by toe Holy Spirit. The YYord of God is quick and powerful (Hefc 4:12): 2. WqepIng turned into Joy (vv. 10- 12). When sins have been perceived and. confessed there is forgiveness. Continued, mourning will not atone for pqst sins. Furthermore, it dishonors a parijoning God' and even Unfits thfe one for preseqt tasks, Joy has a salu tary effect', upon one’s entire being. “The Joy of,the Iairifl is your strength” 3.' Blessings- were shared with oth ers (vy. 10-12). Trne joy manifests itself In giving tq otliers. Pure'reiigiqn goes out tp minister to the poor (Jamqs 1:27). Godliness Is not cprfr tent with having a good time alone.4. Thfi people obeyed.

C. c S H IF T IN G S A N D S SYNOPSIS The youthful and comely 'tWidder* Marcia Howe has as her guest her late husband's niece, Sylvia Hayden. A stranger, exhausted, finds His way to Marcia’s home. Secretly, he asks her to hide a package containing jewelry. She does so. BUsha Winslow, town sheriff, brings news of a jewel robbery nearby. The stranger' gives his name as Stanley Heath. Sylvia discovers the jewels, and naturally believes Heath is a robber, but, for Marcia’s sake, de cides to say nothing. Marcia feels she. has altogether too deep, an interest In her guest, but Is powerless to overcome !D-Heath wires “Mrs. S. C. Heath,” New York, saying he is safe.' He also orders a man named Currier to come at once. Sylvia, In her room, bedecks herself with the jewels. At Marcia’s approach she bides them there. Heath asks Marcia to bring them to him.Tbey are gone! He makes light of the loss. Sylvia restores the jewels to their original hiding place. Elisha Winslow discovers them and has no doubt they are the stolen gems, and Heath is a thief. Leaving the jewels, he makes plans for arresting Heath. Currier arrives. Marcia overhears Heath describe how he acquired the gems, and is forced to believe him guilty of theft. At Heath’s suggestion, Currier investigates the hiding place— and finds the gems! He returns to’New York with them, but his references to “Mrs. Heath” have convinced Marcia her tender dream has been a foolish one. BIisha and Bleazer come to arrest Heath. Marcia is indignant, and un w ittingly reveals to Sylvia the secret of her love. The jewels, of course, are not to be found. To Sylvia Marcia admits she loves Heath and has faith in his innocence. She tells him she be lieves him innocent, but urges him, if he is guilty, to confess. He admits nothing.- - CHAPTER IX —Continued —13—“Not your real life.

Do you imagine that In all the world there would be even one person whose loyalty and • affection would survive so acid a test? Do you know of anyone?” She leaped to her feet “Why do you ask me?” she demand ed, the gentleness of her voice chilling to curtness. “You have such a help mate near you—or should have.” "I don’t understand," pleaded the man, puzzled by her change of mood. “Perhaps we’d better not go Into that now,” was her response. “I must go.’’ “Walt just a moment." • - “I cannot I must get’dinner.” "Never mind the dinner I Sometimes there are things more important” “To think of a man saying thatl” The ring of the telephone chimed In with her silvery laughter. ‘TH go, Sylvia,” she called with a promptness that Indicated the inter ruption was a welcome/pie. “It’s ,long distance,” she called to Heath; “Mrs. Heath wishes to speak with you. Slip on your bathrobe and come.” , ; Heath took the receiver from her hand. “Joan? This certainly is good of you, dear. Yes, I am much better, thank you. Bless your precious heart, you needn’t worry. Currier will be back late tonight or early tomorrow morning and he will tell you how well I am progressing. Yes, he has the jewels. Put them In the safe right away, won’t you? “I'can’t say when I shall be home. Something has come up that may keep me here some time. I cannot explain just now. It Is the thing you have always predicted would happen to me sometime. Well, It has happened. Do yon get that? Yes, I am caught—hard and fast. It Is a bit ironic to have traveled all over the world and then be taken captive In a small Cape Cod village. I’ll let you know the first minute I have anything definite'to tell: "Good-by, dear. Take care of your self. It’s done me a world of good to hear your voice.” Heath returned the receiver to Its1 hook and In high spirits strode back Into his room. Marcia’s chair was empty. * Sbe was nowhere to be seen. CHAPTER X The days Immediately following were like an armed truce. Marcia 'watched Sylvia. Sylvia watched Marcia. Heath watched them both. When, however, no further refer ence to the events of the past week was made, the tension slowly began to lessen, and life at the Howe Home stead took on again its customary aspect . Stanley Heath, warmly wrapped In rugs, now sat out on the sheltered ver anda where be reveled In the sudshine. Sometimes when he lay motionless Jn the steamerchair IooMng seaward beneath the rim of his soft felt hat or following the circling gulls with pre occupied gaze Marcia, peeping at him from the window wondered of whathe was,thinking. That the fancies which intrigued him , were pleasant , and that he en joyed bis own company there could be no question. ( No attitude he might have assumed could have been better calculated to dispel awkwardness and force into' the background the seriousness of the two women, whose Interests were so In extricably entangled with his own, the merry, bantering one he adopted when with them. By Sara Ware Bassett Copyright by The Penn Pub. Co. WNTJ Service He was a brilliant, talker—one who gave unexpected, original twists to the conversation—twists that taxed, one’s power of repartee. Here indeed was a hitherto undreamed-of Stanley Heath, a man whose dangerous charms had multiplied a hundredfold and who, if he had captivated Marcia, before now riveted her fetters with every word he spoke, every glance he gave her.,She struggled to escape from the snare closing In on her, then finding combat useless, ceased to straggle and let herself drift with the tide. After all, why not enjoy the present? In loving this stranger of whom she knew so little, she had set her heart upon a phantom that she knew must vanish. The future, grim with fore boding, was constantly drawing nearer. There were,' alas, but two ways of life—the way of right and the way of wrong, and between them lay no neu tral zone. This she acknowledged with her mind. But her rebel heart would ‘play her false, • . flouting her puritan codes and defying the creeds that 'con- science dictated. MeantimewhileMarcia thus wrestled with the angel of her best self, Sylvia accepted the situation with character istic lightness. She knew more al ready about men than did Marda— much mofe. Long ago they had ceased to be gods to her. She jested fear lessly with Heath, speaking a language with which he was familiar and one that amused him no end. > Marcia felt jealousy clutching at her heart. One. day, passing through the bail, she saw Sylvia’s golden head bent over the table as she dashed off page after page of a closely written letter. It was a pity the elder woman could not have read that letter, for it would not only have astonished but also have enlightened her and perhaps quieted the beating of her troubled heart It was a letter that astonished Syl via herself. Nevertheless, much as it surprised her, her amazement In no way approached that of young Horatio Fuller when he read It Now, Horatio’s mother was a woman of colorless,- vaguely defined person ality indicative of little gu!Ie_and still less determination. She listened well, never interrupted; never offered com ment or advice; never promised any thing; and yet when , she said, as she invariably did, ‘Til talk with your father, dear,” there was always in finite comfort in the observation. That was what she said today-after a conversation with Horatio Junior. Accordingly that evening after Hora tio Senior bad dined, and dined well, Mrs. Horatio gently Imparted to Al ton City's leading citizen the Intelli gence that his son, Horatio Junior, wished to go east; that he was in love; that, In short, he wished to marry. Horatio Senior raged; he tramped the floor; he heaped on the head ef the absent Horatio Junior every ep ithet of reproach his wrath could de vise, the phrases driveling Idiot and audacious puppy appearing to afford him the greatest measure of relief. At last when breathless and panting Horatio Senior, like an alarm clock, ran down and sank exhausted into his chair, 'Mrs.' Horatio ventured'the ir refutable observation that after all Horatio Junior was their only child, and Sylvia Hayden was a nice little thing. This drew fire. Horatio Senior sputtered something about “nothing but a penniless school teacher—a nobody.” Very deliberately then Mrs. Horatio murmured pleasantly that if she re membered rightly this had been the very objection Horatio Senior's father had made to their own marriage, At this Horatio Senior flushed scar let and said promptly that his mar riage had,been ideal;.that his Jennie bad been the one wife In the world for him; that time had proved it— even to his parents; that she was the only person on earth who really un derstood him. . After this nothing was simpler than to discuss just when Horatio Junior' had better start East.• • » * • • • Had Sylvia dreamed when she licked the envelope’s flap with her small red tongue and smoothed it down with her pretty white finger she was thus loos ing Alton City’s thunderbolts, she might, perhaps, ‘have hesitated to send the letter she" had penned and 'per haps would hot have started off so jauntily late that afternoon to'post it Toward six o’clock she telephoned she was at the Doanes and Henry and his mother—the little old lady she had met ou the" train the day she arrived —wanted her to stay to' supper. He would bring her home early in the evening. There would be a moon— Marcia need not worry. Marcia had not thought of worrying until that minute, but now,. In spite of knowing Sylvia was safe” and in good bands she began, paradoxically enough, to worry madly. Timidly as a girl she summoned Stanley Heath to the small, round table. “Sylvia isn’t coming,” she explained, all blushes. “She telephoned she was going to stay oiver in town.” They seated themselves. It was the first'time they had ever been alone at a meal “My, but you are a marvelous cook,”' Heath remarked, during the progress of the meal. “Ob, not really. You’re hungry— that’s all. Things taste good when you are.” | “It isn’t that. Everything you put your hand to is well doqe. You’re a marvelous person, Marcia.’’, “You are talking foolishness.” “Every, man talks foolishness once in his life, I suppose. Perhaps I am talking it tonight because our time to gether is so short I am leaving here tomorrow morning.” “Stanley I” Across the table he caught her hand. “I am well now and. .have no. fur ther excuse for Imposing on yourv hos pitality. I have accepted every man ner of kindness from you—” “Don’t call it that,” she interrupted. “What else can I call it? I was a stranger and you took me In. It was stveet of you—especially when you knew nothing about me. Now the time has come for me to go. Tomorrow morning I am giving myself up to the Wilton sheriff.” “Oh, no—no!” . “It is the only square thing to do, isn’t it?” He rose and came to her side, slip ping an arm about her. . “Marcia. Dearest! I am doing what you'wish, am I not? You wanted me to go through with it.” She covered her face and he felt a shudder pass over her. “Yes. But that was then,” she whispered. At the words, he drew her to her feet and into his arms. ‘Marcia, beloved! I love you—love you with all my heart—my soul—ail that is In me. You know it—know that every moment we have been to gether has been heaven. Tell me you love me, dear—for you do love me. Don’t deny it—not tonight—our last night together. Say that you love me.” ‘You—know,” she faltered, her arms creeping about his neck. He kissed her then—her hair, her eyes, her neck, her lips—long, burning kisses" that ’ left her’ quivering' beneath the rush of them. Their passion brought her to her self and she drew away. ‘What Is It, dear?” he asked. ‘We can’t. We must not. Some thing stands between us—we have no rigpt. Forgive me.” “But my dear—” “We have no right,” she repeated. We must not love.” “But we do, sweetheart," was his triumphant cry. “We do I" “We must forget” “Can you forget?” he reproached. “I—I—can try.” < “Ah, your tongue is too honest, Mar cia. You cannot forget. Neither can “You—Know,” She Faltered, Her Arms Creeping About His Neck. L Our pledge is given. We belong to one another. I shall not surrender what is mine—never,” “Tomorrow—” “Let us not talk of tomorrow.” “We must We shall be parted then.” . _' “Only for a little while. I shall come back to you. Our love will hold.5 Ab sence, distance, nothing can part'us— not really. Tell me you love me so I may leave knowing the truth from your own sweet lips." “I love you, Stanley—God help me!’? “Ah, now I can go! It will not be for long.” “It must be for ever, dear heart You must not come back. Tonight must’ he—the end.” ‘ ‘ . “You mean you cannot face tomor, row—the disgrace—” “I mean tonight must be the end,” she reiterated, ' . ; - Through narrowed lids, he looked at her, scanning her averted face. Then she beard, him laugh'bitterly, discordantly. “I have, apparently, expected too much ot you. I might have known It would be so. AU women are alike. They desert a man when he needs them ! most: • The' prospect- of. sharing my shame Is more than you can bear.” Agaimhe laughed. “Well, tonight shall be the.end—tonight—now, Don’t think I blame you. It Is not your fault. I merely rated you too high, Marcia. The mistake was mine—not yours.” He left her then. Stunned by the torrent of his re proach, she stood motionless, watching while, Wltiiout a backward glance, he passed into the hall and up the stairs. Even after he was out of sight, she remained immovable, her frightened eyes riveted on the doorway througi which he had disappeared(TO BE CONTINUED) A D VEN TU R ER S’ CLUB iiRoar of the Blaslff By FLOYD GIBBONS Famous Headline Hunter. , Y OU hear a lot of talk’ about Hades, boys and girls, but in my opinion, the place is overrated.

Maybe you remember how, In the last days of the World war, a hunk of concentrated Hades broke loose down there and turned the whole neighborhood upside down for a week or more. I mean the time the big munitions .works went up. The ex plosion that shook New York, 20 miles away.Jim Kekes was in that, right from the beginning. He was working In the shell loading plant—had just finished for the day and, with a couple of other fellows, was walking down the hill toward the highway, when suddenly he was thrown to the ground by something that felt like a terrific blow In the back. Explosion Knocks People Dovm Like Tenpins. The impact was followed by a thunderous roar and then Jim noticed that the other two fellows had been thrown to the ground too. He knew, then, even before he looked up, that an explosion had occurred In one of the many fac- ,tories of the plant v , Before them, smoke was pouring from a factory near the gate. More explosions followed the first—and while the ground rpcked around them, all.three men were seized with an indescribable.fear. Theplant was built over a huge area. Its several factories being spaced hundreds of yards apart.. The whole yard was surrounded by a high wire fence and the only gate was the one toward which they Were headed. But In order to reach that gate, they had to pass the burning factory In which explosions were occurring at the rate of two a minute. “Well, all became panic-stricken,” JIm says.- “We saw guards and over time workers coming out of the plants and running for their lives In every direction.. . “My two companions, fearing they would never get through the gate alive, began to run In another direction. Excited, Jim Ruiis Right Toward Death. “But In my excitement I didn’t notice them go and didn’t notice that in running toward the gate I was also running straight toward the fire. The gate W Hunk of Concentrated Hades Broke Loose. was between two plants—from one of which the explosions were coming. I didn’t notice where I was until I found myself right between these two factories.” In fact, Jlme Kekes^ didn’t realize where he was until he was knocked down by an explosion that was almost on top of him. He found himself between those two factories just at the moment when the second one caught fire from the first and began to add its din to -the turmoil. The ground between those two buildings was-like a battle field. The flames had gotten into a magazine and shells were flying In every direction—bursting all over the strip of ground on which he lay. “I lifted myself up,” Jim says, “trembling with fear, but determined to ‘make the most of my chance—If there was a chance at all.' Chills were running up and down my spine. The cold sweat bad me. I was weak from fright but I pulled myself together and, with all tne strength in me, I started running for the gate. It seemed as if I was being shot at from all directions. Afraid to look around me, I just kept running and running.” Running Through a Rain of Exploding Shells. It was a quarter of a mile to.the gate and Jim sprinted the distance with his eyes half Bhut— expecting any minute to be struck and killed. -Twice In thatv distance he was knocked down by explosions and each time he thought he had gotten the death blow at IasL But he picked himself up again and staggered on. It took him several minutes to reach the gate but at last he was . through it and out on the highway. The rain of exploding shells was almost as bad there as ft had been inside but here He had a chance' to Jump into some sort of a vehicle and get’away. But there weren’t any vehicles there when Jim got to the highway. Re started running down the road afoot. He bad gone about a hundred yar^s when he heard something coming behind him and turning, saw a heavy truck speeding In hla direction. ~ Jim waved to the'driver, but the driver paid no attention to him. He was In just as much of a hurry to'get out of the neighborhood as Jim was. Then Jim stepped to the center of the road, determined to get aboard that truck if he had to jump onto the running board while it was going full speed.- The truck was almost on top of him when Jlu leaped. Then—crash—Jim missed bis hold and landed sprawling In the road. He rode away -In that truck . but it cost him a busted'leg to do IL The driver stopped then, picked him up ' and’"Carried him to a hospitaL. And. It was pretty tough Iuck1Jim thinks, to get all the way through a quarter mile stretch of Hades, only to be taken over1 by a gasoline wagon. G—WNU Service.

A student of psy chology, he watched a demonstra tion of hypnosis, which failed on the subject, but took effect on him without the knowledge of anyone. I Three days later Hudson’s queer actions aroused .suspicion and it was found that he had been hypno tized. Dodging work' is an art with some citizens who rarely fail to take a bow for the results accomplished. Weil, if collections don’t improve pretty soon we will be in favor of passing a law or something!

McDonald, of Winston Salem, candidate for the Democratic nomination for Gover- ernor in the primary next year doesn’t pick them when it. comes to getting them told and he journeyed down to Raleigh and bearded that wizard at figures A J.' Maxwell, commissioner of revenue, in bis den. He placed the writer of Democra tic campaign books in this state “on the spot” and at last accounts Maxwell well still pondering over what struck him. McDonald walked right in the office of the commissioner and told Maxwell that he agreed with a re cent study of property taxes which showed North Carolina had the lowest property tax in the nation, but contended Maxwellshould have so acquinted the joint legislative finance committee last spring. Hegavenewspapermen copies of news stories of last February quot ing Maxwell as saying North Caro Iina taxes on corporations are high* er than those of other states in the southern groups. The study said McDonald contended the average ad valorem tax in Virginia was one and one half times as high as in Noith Carolina” and that Max well made no reply then, but said later in his opinion ad valorem tax es in Virginia were less than in North Carolina. McDanald said people of North Carolina regarded Maxwell as a taxation experti-. but' the^cftmmis- sioner's statement about Virginia was a big factor in defeating the anti sales tax program in the Gen eral Assembly. Maxwell’s retort was that tax ation of corporations In Virginia is a “ mixed-up” matter with many counties and lpcalities granting cor porations special property tax pri vileges. McDonald told newpapermen fol lowing his verbal attack on Max well that be is running for Gover nor to “ break up this tax situa don” and if elected will "appoint someone who-knows about taxes.” He made the statement informal ly after leaving Maxwell’s private office—Ex ^leafter Ded 2 5 th .

Apparent evidence that people are drinking more liquor since re peal is seen in the United: States public health estimates that 3.655 persons died of alcoholism during 1934, according to a report just re leased. Dr R C Williams, assistant surgeon general, said the public health service “is not alarmed” at increase of 258 deaths from chronic and acute alcoholism dur ing the last reported year. The death rate from this cause stood at 2.9 per 100,000 of popula tion from 1934. an increase from 2.6 in 1933 and 2 5 *° the full pre- repeal year of 1932- ' No estimate was made of the number of deaths from poison Ii quor.. all alcoholic cases having listed together. The figures, complied by census bureau for health service reports were said bv one census of ficial not to be altogether accurate, The official said there is every rea son to believe many family physi cians would avoid signing a death certificate attributing the cause alcoholism if another listing possible.

It has been brought to our at tention by a noted writer that every city or town is either ptogtessing or going backward. :: Possible no other statement in regard to the status of a community is more strikiug. Every day a person stands at the cross-roads of opportunity to m ^ e rhis cit^drcommunity-abetterplace in which to live. . Each day he can make it better of'worse. The col lective effort of a majority ;of the people can turn, the tide in either direction. : Here is some comment on this question offered by The Reidsville Review: ' ‘ What does a family ■ want in a town or city? Good churches, good schools, good neighbors, good jobs, and a chance to make a living? Am I doing my share to make conditions so that people will want to live bere. This is* the question for every citi zen to ask himself. “Every live place wants Jto grow and prosper. * Therefore it must be inviting. To attract new enter prises and new residents, its people must be. friendly and fair\and har monious, it must have leaders with a vision and a definite program to ward which to work. “And there must be an organiz ation to carry out the program; - All the visions of dreamers, the inspi ration of leaders avail nothing unless the people are moved by. .the right spirit, have a clear vision of the community’s possibilities, ate bitch ed up to a definite program, have a good organization s carry it out and are willing, to do some, unselfish work for the good of all. This is not j iist a question to con sider momentarily but one we can all plant in our minds for daily study and practice.— WilkeS Patriot. Frank Hampton Lands the to were Frank .A.

After the league, with delegate* from 40 states shouting fervid Amens,” called upon the president to start a campaign for the return o f. prohibition by drying up the ivWte bouse cellar, two of its most powerful chieftains laid the blame for. “the abject failure of repeal” squarely on President Roosevelt’s shoulders. The repercussions followed adop tion by the league last night of a result ion urging the presideht to abolish “the use of intoxicants at white House functions” and to ac knowledge publicly failure to keep .'hiscampaign promise” to “end the saloon evil ” BishopJames Cannon, Jr., Los Angeles, who stumped against Al Spiiih in 1928 and wrote the resolu tion. criticized the serving of light Iiqiiorsat white house dinners. •“It ’s a poor example for the first family to set before the youth of the Iand1V he observed. ’ tBisbop Cannon, who was named by the begisiature' to head its re establish national legislative com mittee in.a “new advance against alcohol,” joined Dr. F. Scott Mc Bride, militant spearhead of the “■wnpd dry war,” in saddling the of repeal upon the, president. Xdefiuitelywilloppose the re. election of Mr. Roosevelt, although I haven’t yet decided whether I shall actively fight against him,” said Bishop . Cannon. He added that “either Senator Vandenburg- of Michigan or Col. Frank Knox of Chicago would be more accept- able dry candidates if either should get the Republican nomination.” Speaking individually, both Bish- op Cannon and Dr. McBride de plored the “quadrupling of drink ing places in the nation's capital as result of President Roosevelt sign ing the bill for repeal of prohibi tion in the District of Columbia.” Each asserted dry sentiment was crystalizing, particularly among church leaders, against return of the Roosevelt administration. “President Rooseveit is primarily and solely responsible for the death of prohibition and the failure of re peal,” said Dr. McBride, general superintendent of the league. He coerced state governors into supporting the campaign for repeal and he sent Jim Farley around to see that the job was done. He placated the brewery iuterests by promising them prohibition would end, and be placated the people by assuring them the saloon would never come back. Well, he kept his promise to the brewery interests, but he forgot his promise to the people. And you don’t see him sending Jim Farley around to tell them the truth—that the saloon is back in worse shape than ever.” McBride said a majority of the delegates—“including many down- t h e Iiue southern Democrats”r— were hypercritical of the adminis tration’s liqaor policies and had ex pressed from the floor of the conven tion “opposition to continuing Mr, Roosevelt in office.” The league, officially politically non partisan, reaffirmed its historic stand for “complete abolition of tbe alcohol beverages traffic," and opr. posed all forms of liquor advertising.

Just how long this condition of affairs can last no one can sav. Democratic governors in South Carolina and Georgia are having their troubles.

Well, there are folks who make mistakes and there are others who are just ordi nary every day liars. Seems that most of the leading democrats throughout the countiy are deserting President Roosevelt. Well, Mr. Roosevelt seems to . ha ve deserted the democratic party," and thrown their platform to the four wiuds of the earth. The Roxboro Courier takes a Jot of space to prove that Josigh Bailey is an honest man. Well, I..Tbe Record has never questioned Josigh's honesty in money matters, but we have onr own opinion of a leading church worker who prays I diy and votes wet; There may be ho politics in the Works Political;Administration, or whatever WPA stands for, but so far as we know all the white collar [jobs, foremen, bosses, time keepers and so fourth, are held by demo crats. If we are wrong, ask us for in apology From an editorial appearing in the Charlotte Observer a few days igo, one would be led to believe that prosperity has bit the Queen City. TheObserversaystheside walks are congested, together with the stores. This being the case it is not wise for us to travel all the way to Charlotte to spend our Christmas dollar. President Green, of the American Federation of Labor, says there are more than eleven million people'| out of employment. Surely not. There were but ten million idle tolks in the United ; States when Mr. Roosevelt was inaugurated presi dent, and if we remember correctly he was to put them all to work when be took the reins of govern ment.

T HEl gray day was settling Into a grayer night A white mist ob scured the pine covered hills and spread Itself over’ the valley like a vast curtain shutting out familiar ob jects. The I shriek Cf a locomotive sounded ghostly and unreal, as Its glaring headlight penciled the dark ness for a moment and disappeared. The doorway of the little railway sta tion was outlined In a blaze of light as the attendant entered. Despite the chilling blanket of mist a campfire a few hundred yards down the track crackled and glowed cheer ily, bringing into sharp relief the fig ures of a man and boy. The latter, seated on a log, gazed moodily into the fire. as the pine boughs rapidly consumed. His beardless face had the healthy tan of the open road, his cloth ing showed its neglect The heavy shoes, soggy with the moist earth, steamed as the heat waves beat upon them, but he was unmindful of any discomfort The man was grizzled and weather stained, a typical person of the out- of-doors life. E1Or the moment he was intent on arranging slices of bacon on a flattened piece of tin, later to be slid over the red coals where a can A Carhpfier Brought Into Sharp Relief the Figures, of a Man and . Boy. of bubbling coffee already sent out an appetizing odor. He worked deftly, as one long used to this method of pre- paring meals. Occasionally he cast anxious looks at the boy, as he turned the sizzling bacon and sandwiched it between thick slices of bread. With steady hand he poured the steaming coffee into separate cans, then called to the boy: “Sit up, Jimmy! Te must be starved after the day’s tramp. Walkin’ the rails is hard work, but we’re not ones for stealing rides, we pay like ^intle- men or walk, eh, lad?” The boy started frcm his reverie. “Hitch hiking beats walking for rapid transit if you’re in a hurry, Tim,” Jimmy grinned. “Gee, that bacon smells great. I’m as hungry as a camp rob ber.” They ate In silence, each busy with his own thoughts. When the meal was finished, the man produced a short stemmed pipe from an inner pocket of his heavy woodsman coat, filled it, crowding the tobacco In with his thumb; then stooping be scooped a live coal from the fire and puffed a moment in quiet satisfaction; watch ing the boy from under his shaggy eyebrows as he added fresh fagots to the dwindling blaze. The boy, with bands thrust deep In his pockets, continued to move rest lessly about. ‘*Gee, Tim, this weather is getting, on my nerves. We’ve had days .of it I’m beginning to want to see the sun again.” The old man laid aside his pipe. “Now, lad, suppose ye tell Tim all about it What’s botherin’ ye—I’ve missed that whistle of yourn. What’s on yer mind?" Jimmy resumed his seat on the log. ‘Oh, nothing much, Tim. I guess I’m sort of cuckoo tonight, just thinking— oh, shucks! it’s nothing, anyway.” “Go on, lad, I’m listenin’.” A slow color mounted to the boy’s face. “It’s thinking of Christmas, Tim. It’s only three days off, and—and I’ve never been away before. It doesn’t matter, -forget it” He hastily threw a pine bough into the'fire. “Three days, ye say, lad? An’ me forgettin’ it Now, where’d ye say ye cotne from?” “Iowa, Tim.” “Now, do tell. I been In Ioway me- self, lad, but it’s a long time ago—a long time. Ye’re from a farm, mebbe?” “No, Dad’s no farmer. He’s a car penter, and got along fine till hard times struck—you know how things went” "“Sure I do,” Tlm supplemented. “An’ there, wasn't , much, work.” “That’s right, Tim, and I wasn’t keen on school. I wrote a note telling Moin and Dad not to worry about me—they have three more to look out for—and I Wt the trail for the great North west.”Tlm gave him a reassuring pat. ~i sea, lad. An’ ye’re fed up an’ sort of ’disapinted an’ homesick?” “I guess that’s right, TinU Bm, gosu, it was thinking of Christmas that got- under my skin. They’ll all be there but me. Nobody to get the tree—that was my 'job. We always had one, even In the hardest times. Mom’s a corker to manage,. Doesn’t ChrRtmas get you,; too, Tim? Haven’t* you tfolks. *some-‘ where you’d like to see?” “Mebbe, lad, an’ mebbe Td be glad der to see them, than they me. Now this town, 1Podunk,* did you say It was?” “No. It’s Mobray, and the dandiest town—not so hot for size, but it has about everything a fellow needs there, and the best grid team In the county. Gee, Tim you ought to see them hus kies go-after that ball; and smash ithe line—and the crowd roaring like mad, rooting for their teams.” The eager look faded—he rose abruptly. ■ “Guess I’ll be turning In. See you later.”. "Sure,- lad,” Tim ignored the break in the conversation. “Better bank them pine boughs under that shed over there. This drizzle will likely be snow by mornin’. I’ve an errand of me own to do, but I’ll be back in no time. Git yer rest whilst ye kin.” An hour later the boy was awakened by a hand on his shoulder, and Tim’s voice calling: “Wake up, Jimmy, I wants to talk to ye.” Jimmy sat up, rubbing his eyes. “Okay, Tim, what’s on your mind? Shoot.” Tim fumbled In his pocket and pro duced a bit of paper. “First I want to say Merry Christmas from Timothy Ryan to Mr. James Madden of Mobray, Ioway. Here It iSj-a ticket to ye’re old home town. An*, the fast train will pick ye up In exactly forty minutes. We got to get goin’, lad. “But Tim,” Jimmy blinked the: last bit of sleep from his eyes. He turned the paper over and over until he was I convinced it was genuine. “I—I don’t U understand, Tim. How did you get this and where?” Tim-laughed merrily, “One at a time, lad. First: I got it over yon at the little railway station where they sell tickets. Second, I paid fer it with money, earned money I laid by when work was good.” “That’s fine of you, Tim, but I can’t take your money. You need tt for yourself.” “Sure ye kin, lad, an’ there’s enough left fer me—an’ yer welcome to it Ye see, Jimmy, I sort of tub to ye the day we walked inter the loggin’ camp jest as they were closin’ down fer the winter an’ we tuk the trail toglther. An’ when ye talked of Christmas, an’ sich, ye set me thinkin’. TJhe gift- is not fer you Slone7 but fer yer folks who misses ye more than ye know. Old Tim’s made many a mistake, I says to' myself, but this ain’t one, an’ mebbe it will help square some of the others." He laid a gnarled hand on the boy's shouder. "There’s only one thing Tm askin’, lad, an’ that is: ye’ll stay off the road. It’s not fer'the likes of ye. Go home an’ finish yer schoolin’.” “You’re right, Tim,” Jimmy replied soberly. “I’ve come to realize that. You’ve1’helped- me to see things dif ferently, Tim: I’ve got a dandy idea.” ‘ His face glowed with eagerness. “Go home with me, Mom and Dad would' make you welcome; and you say you have m°ney.” But the old man shook his head. “No, no, lad, I bln on the road too long. I know yer folks wud be grand to me; much obleeged to ye fer thinkin’ of it—I'll be gettin’ along where there’s housin’ quarters, an’ mebbe a bit of work.” .••••••• The eastbound train came to a stop. As the slender youth was climbing aboard, with a last handclasp, old Tim pressed a-crumpled bill into bis hand. “Ye must eat, lad, an’ don’t lose yer ticket. Don't fergit ye’re.ridin’ like a gintleman.” The old man laughed, but there was an undertone of wistfulness.. Jimmy took the money. “I hadn't thought of eating, Tim. It is just that I’m going home. Home, Tim, and I owe it to you. I’ll pay it back some Tlm Fumbled In His Pocket and Produced a Bit of Paper. Say—I’ll tell Mom and Dad what a good pal you’ve been—and you prom ised to write. I’ll be thinking of you Christmas.” "Thankee, lad, thankee. Tell • yer folks howdy, an’ Merry Christmas fer me.” /- The train roared away In the white fog. Old Tim watched till the red light disappeared and the rumble grew faint In the distance. He rubbed-a moist hand across his brow. “An’ he called me pal- Tis a fine lad he is, an’ Fll be mlssin’ him. Three days to Christ mas; he’ll make it” By the dim light from the station window, be pulled a worn pufse from his pocket and emp tied. the few remaining coins into .his hand. He shook his bead slowly. Reach ing into an Inner pocket he drew forth a letter addressed to a small town In Iowa'; slowly he read: “Dear Tom: I been hankerin’ to see ye an’ the old home agin. I’ll be coin in’ fer Christmas. Yer brother Tim.” He tore the letter into bits. -‘!He’s worth it,” he said. ‘The Iad' will be home fer Christmas.”' Old Tim smiled happily as he trudged back to camp. ,6 Western Nevspaper Union. - 913^541431 yv.i-v. $ I fSi l>il ! 1 ms w. - Ii <Lit I t!fi “(if Si i RECORD.

WNU Service SYNOPSIS The youthful and comely "rWidder" Uarcia Howe has as her guest her late husband's niece, Sylvia Hayden. A stranger, exhausted, finds his way to Marcia’s home. He asks her to hide a package containing jewelry. She does so. EUsha Winslow, town sheriff, brings news of a jewel robbery nearby. The stranger gives his name as. Stanley Heath. Sylvia discovers the jewels; and naturally believes He'ath is a robber, but decides to say nothing. Marcia feels she has too deep an interest In her guest, but is powerless to over come it. Heath wires “Mrs. S. C. Heath,’* New York, saying he is safe. He also orders a man named Currier to come at once. Sylvia, In her room, bedecks herself with the jewels. At Marcia’s approach she hides them there. Heath asks Marcia to bring them to him. They are gone! Sylvia restores the Jewels to their original hiding place. Slisha Winslow discovers them and has no doubt they are the stolen gems, and Heath is a ttfief. Leaving'the jewels, he makes plans for arresting Heath. Currier arrives. Marcia overhears Heath describe how he acquired the gems, and is forced to believe him guilty of theft. Currier Investigates the hiding place—and finds the gems! He returns to New York with them, but his references to "Mrs. Heath" have convinced Marcia her tender dream has been a foolish one. EUsha and Eleazer come to arrest Heath. The jewels, of course, are not to be found. To Sylvia Marcia admits she loves Heath and has faith in his Innocence. She tells him she believes him innocent* but urges him, If he Is guilty, to confess. He admits nothing, but compels her to confess she loves him, also telling her he is giving himself up to the sheriff. She insists this must be the end of their association, and he, thinking she will not face the “disgrace," reproaches and leaves her. CHAPTER X—Continued 14 — Then she swayed, caught at a chair and shrank into it, her body shaking and her breath coining in gasp- . ing, hysterical sobs. Tlie dock ticked on. ,the surf broke In muffled undertone, the ligbt faded; the candles burned lower, flickered and overflowed the old pewter candle sticks; and still she sat there, her tear less, dilated eyes fixed straight be fore her. -• ••*••• Having no inkling of a change in the delightful relations that bad for the past week prevailed In the Home stead, . the atmosphere . that greeted Sylvia when she came down the nest morning was a shock. Stanley Heath stood at the telephone talking to Elisha Winslow and on the porch outside were grouped his suit case,"overcoat and traveling rug. He was plainly ill at ease and bad Uttle except the most commonplace remarks to offer in way of conversation. Marcia had not slept, as ber pallor and tbe: violet shadows' beneath her eyes attested. Although the girl did not understand, she sensed Marcia's need of her and rushed valiantly into the breach— filling every awkward pause with her customary sparkling chatter. When at length the meal was cut short by the arrival of Elisha Wins low, all three of the group rose with unconcealed relief; “Wal, Mr. Heath, I .see you’re ex pectin’ me," grinned the sheriff, point ing toward the luggage beside the door. “Tam, Mr. Winslow.” “I’ve got my boat Are you ready to come right along?" “Quite ready.” Heath went to Sylvia and took her hand. “Thank you very much,” murmured be formally, "for all you’ve done for me. I appreciate it more than I can say. And you, too, Mrs. Howe.” “I wish you luck, Mr. Heath,” called Sylvia. “Thanks.” “And I, too,” Marcia' rejoined In a voice scarcely audible. To this the man offered no reply. They followed him to the door.' It was then that Marcia sprang for ward and caught Elisha’s arm. ' * “Where are you taking hiin, Elisha?” she demanded, a catch In ber voice. “Bemember, Mr. He'ath has been HL Tou must not risk bis getting cold or suffering any discomfort” “You need have no worries on that score, Marcia,” replied the sheriff kindly, noticing- the distress in her face. *TU look out for him.” “Where is he going?” “To my house for the present" I ■ha answered. uFve a comfortable spare room an’ I figger to put him In it 1Hl I've questioned him an' verified his story.“Meantime, nobody In town will be the wiser. I ain’t even tellln’ May- Ellen why Mr. Heath’s at the house. If I choose to harbor comp’ny, tbat's my business. Not a soul ’cept Eleazer’s In on this affair an’ he’s keepin’ mum. When him an’ me decide we’ve got the truth, we’ll act—not before.” “That relieves my mind very much. - Mr.-Heath la—yon see he—” “He’s a friend of ydurs—I ain’t for getting that Ishall treat him ’cordin'ly, Marcia." “Thank you, Elisha—thank you a hundred times.” There was nothing more to be said. Heatb bowed once again and the two men walked down to the float where they clambered with the luggage into Elisha’s dory and put out Into the channel.Sylsia loitered to wave her hand and watch them row away, but Mar cia, as if unable to bear the sight waited for no further farewell But by noon she was, to outward ap pearances, entirely herself. She had not been able, to be sure, to banish her pallor or the traces of sleeplessness; but she had.her emotions sufficiently under control to talk pleasantly, if not gaily.That day and the next passed in much the same strained fashion. . It was not until the third morning that the barriers between the two col: lapsed. Marcia had gone into the living room to write a letter. She sat. down before the desk and started to take up her pen when Sylvia heard her utter a cry.“What’s the matter, dear?” called the girl, hurrying into the other room. As Sylvia came nearer, Marcia bowed her bead upon the desk and be gan to sob as if her heart would break. “Oh, now could he!” moaned the woman. “How could he be so cruel !1J “What has happened, Marcia?” “Stanley—he has left a check— money—thrown it in my • face! And I did it so gladly—because I loved him. He knew that Yet he could leave this—pay me—as if I were a_ common servant I had rather he struck me— a hundred times rather.” The girl took the check. It was filled out In Stanley Heath’s clear, strong hand and was for the sum of a hundred dollars. “How detestable of him!” she ex claimed. “Tell me, Marcia—what hap pened between you and Mr. Heath? You quarreled—of course I know that But why—why? I have not wanted to ask, but now—” ‘TH tell you everything, Sylvia. I’d rather you knew. I thought at first I could keep it to myself, but I cannot. I need you to help me, dear.” Marcia unfolded the story of her blind faith in Stanley Heath; her love for him—a love she could neither re sist nor control—a love she had known from the first to be' hopeless. She confessed how 0She had struggled to conceal her feelings; how he himself had resisted a similar attraction In her; how at last he had discovered her secret and forced her to betray It. Of course I realized we could not go on,” sbe explained bravely. “That we loved one another was calamity enough. All that remained was for him to go away and forget me—return to his wife, his home, and his former life. Soon, If he honestly tries, this infatuation will pass and everything will be as before. Men forget more easily than women. Absence, too, will help." “And you, Marcia?” “I cannot give up my love. It Is ail I have now. Oh, I do not mean to mourn over it pity myself, make life unhappy. Instead, I shall be glad, thankful. You will see. This experi ence will make every day of living richer. You need have no fears for me, Sylvia. You warned me, you know,” concluded she- with a pathetic little smile. ‘I was a brute I I ought to have shielded you more,” the girl cried, 'I could have, had I realized. Well, I can yet do something, thank heaven. Give me that check.” “What do you mean to do?” “Return It of course—return it be fore Stanley Heath leaves town. I’ll take it over to Eilsha Winslow’s now, this minute.” ‘I wonder—yes, probably -that will be best You won’t I suppose, be allowed to see Stanley,” speculated she timidly. “If you should—” “Well?” “Don't say anything harsh, Sylvia. Please do not blame him, or—" “Fll wring his neck!” was the em phatic retort , ‘Oh, please—please dear—for my sake! I can’t let you go if you go In that spirit” pleaded Marcia In alarm. “There, there—you need not worry for fear I shall maltreat your Romeo, richly as he deserves it,’’ was the re sponse. “I could kill him—but I won’t —because of you. Nevertheless, I warn you that if I get the chance I shall tell him what I think of him. He Is terribly to blame and ought to realize it No married man has any business playing round with another woman.” “I am half afraid to Uet you go, Sylvia.” “You don’t trust me? Don’t you be lieve-1 I ore you?" “I am afraid you love me too much, dear.” - “I do love you, Marcia. I never dreamed I could care so intensely for anyone I have known for so short a time. What you did for my mother alone would make me love you. But aside from gratitude there are other reasons. I love you for your own splendid self, dear. ..Please do not fear-to trust me. I promise you l win- neither be unjust-nor bitter.” ' “Take the check then and go. I wish I were to see him.” “Well, you’re not! Let him .do the explaining and apologizing. Let him grovel at your feet That’s , what he ought to dot” * “Yon won’t tell him that" “I don’t know what I shall tell him.” “Please Sylvia! Yoti promised, re member.” “Don’t fret. Some of the tnad will be taken oat of me before I see Mr. Heatb.:; Kisa me and, wish me. luek,; Marcia. You do. believe I will try to' be wise, don’t yon?" “Y«s, fen* YesT , “That’s right You really can trust me, you know. I'm not so bad as I sound.” . Tucking the check Into the wee pocket of her sweater, Sylvia caught up her pert beret and perched It upon her curls. “So long!” she called, looking back over her shoulder as she opened the door. “So long, Marcia! I’ll be bank as soon as ever I can.” The haste with which ‘ she disap peared, suddenly precipitated her into the arms of a young man who stood upon the steps preparing to knock. “Hortie Fuller,” cried Sylvia breath lessly. flHortie! Where’ on earth did you come from?” Her arms closed about his neck and he had kissed her twice before sbe swiftly withdrew, rearranging her curia and saying coldly; “I cannot imagine what brought you here, Horatio,” CHAPTER XI “I can’t imagine,” repeated Sylvia, still very rosy and flustered, but with her most magnificent air, “what brought you to Wilton—I really can- DOt” “Can't you?” grinned Horatio cheer fully. “No, I cannot” Prom Kis superior height of slx- feet-two, he looked down-at her meager five feet amusement twickllDg in bis eyes. Sylvia, however, was .too Intent on patting her curls Into place to heed his glance. “You wrote me to come, didn’t you?” he presently inquired. “I wrote you to come!” “Well, at least you led me to sup pose you’d like it If I were here,” per sisted Horatio.- “Toward the bottom of page two you said: ‘I am posi tively homesick’; and in the middle of the back of page three you wrote: ‘It seems years since I’ve seen you.’” “What if I did?” answered the girl with a disdainful shrug. Nevertheless the dimples showed In her cheeks. “And that isn’t all,” Horatio went on. “At the end of page five you wrote: ‘Would that you,were here* I” Sylvia bit her, lip. “That was only a figure of . speech —what is called poetic license.” “Then you didn’t mean it when yon said you wished I was here;” Horatio was obviously disappointed. “Why, of course I am pleased to see you, Horatio, It is very nice of iron to come to the Cape to meet my aunt and—” “Darn your aunt!” he scowled. “I didn’t come to see her! I am not Inter ested In aunts.” “Take care! I happen to be very keen on this aunt, of mine. If ; she didn’t like, you, you might; 'get iSent home. Don’t be horrid, Hortie. I truly am glad you've come. You must make allowance for my being sur prised. I haven’t got over it yet How in the world did you contrive to get away at'this season? And what sort of a trip did you have?” “Swell! I stopped overnight In New York at the Gardners. Mother wanted me to deliver a birthday cake to Estelle, who, you may remember, Is the mater’s god-daughter. She’s a pippin, too. I hadn’t seen her since she graduated from Vassar.” Sylvia listened. She dtd not need to be told about the Gardners. They had visited 'Horatio’s family more than once and rumor had It tbe elders of both families would be de lighted were the young people to make a match -of it Tm surprised you did not stay longer In New'York,” Sylvia observed, gazing reflectively at ber white shoe, “New York wasn’t my objective^ I came on business, you see. Dad gave me two months off so I could get married.” Sylvia jumped. “I was not aware you were en gaged,” murmured she In a formal, far-away tone. “I'm not” came frankly from Hora tio Junior. “But Fm going to be. In fact I chance to have the ring with me this minute. Want to see it?” “I always' enjoy looking at jewels,” was her cautious retort Horatio felt of his pockets. . “Where on earth did I put that thing?” he muttered,, “Hope I haven’t lost It Oh, here it Is.” He took out a tiny velvet case and sprang the catch. “Oh, Hortlel Isn’t It beautiful I” Sylvia cried. “It fairly takes away my breath.” “Try it on." She shook' her head., “It- wouldn't, fit, me. My hands, are too small.’' • . “It’s a ■ small ring. Here. Put It on,” he urged, holding It toward her. “Well, I suppose I might try It to please you. But I know it will be too*, large.” ; She slipped it on her finger. ’ -V “why,, it does fit How- odd!” “Very odd '-indeed,”' he' ,answered drily, as she. reached her hand out ihto'the sun -and turned .the diamonds so that they caught the light “Looks rather well on, doesn’t It?” w&s his comment' -.wIt is a beautiful ring.” Horatio, standing behind her, twice extended his arms as If to gather Iier into them and twice withdrew them, deciding the action to.be premature. .;At length with-a determined squar-. Ing of his shoulders, he locked his bands behind him and stood looking on V while she continued to twtot the ring this way and that. • ” ??-^?6d he after an inter*yal, !. suppose’I may as'well pot IV back Jtn the box.” " CUX'BE CONTINVXtij Inexpensive, Easy Patciiwork Quilts By GRANDMOTHER CLARK e » « » e «« » S e « «« ,■ Patchwork quilts as a - rule are elaborate, cost quite a bit and repre sent many days of tedious work.

We’re Still Getting Mad On as the Savages Do When Tom Sawyer and the new boy first met and took one another’s measure they worked themselves up to the. point of combat by passing in sults and dsires. In the Arabian desert, when the tribes feel the urge for battle, they prepare for it by dis patching impudent verse back and forth. When one side feels that the impertinence can only be atoned for in blood the shouts give way to blows. All very childish, of course. But Is it so much different from the civ ilized methods? Soung Italians threaten .the British embassy -In Rome and break the windows of Brit- Isb places of business. The'Brit ish hurry troops to Egypt.

This; author Interviewed bankers. Insurance men and lawyers as well as state and federal authorities, and found fingerprinting generally used today In banks and commercial busi ness • firms to protect signatures. The Bowery Savings. bank, In New Yorfc City, for instance, records the impression of the fingertips of every depositor. "Some -savings banks are going even further,” she - writes. “They have under contemplation requiring fingerprints on’ all withdrawal slips. They require a fingerprint on a slip before admitting a: person to. the' safe deposit vaults. _ This eliminates not only the .man bent on robbery,, but the racketeer or crook-who wishes to use his box as a hideaway for cash bribes or stolen jewelry/ "Some day, undoubtedly, every one of us, In drawing a check of large denomination, on a commercial bank, will as' automatically finger print it as now we sign.it This is a prophecy made by many thoughtful business men. Fingerprinting would be too much trouble? If used on small checks, yes. But would-you re gard the simple gesture of pressing your finger against an lnkless pad and-then on top of your signature as too ,exhausting an ordeal for the ab solute protection it would afford a large check?” That .fingerprinting is going to be required In the future on-all accident and life insurance policies is plain, she says. It may be used also to safeguard the forging of wills and making of false claims to estates, insurance or relationship. A will au thenticated by a fingerprint of the person making the will and also tbe fingerprints of his beneficiaries can not be forged If these fingerprints have been placed on file In Wash ington. Thousands of people today arc registering their fingerprints at Washington. Those wishing to build up the Olvil Identification ITile in Washington should write to the De partment of Justice at Washington for a "personal Identficatlon” card, fill It out with the help of some local official and return it to Washington.

A D V E N T U R E R S ’ ay WILLIAM BRUCKART NATIONAL PRESS BLDG ‘Cave Man Stuff* By PLOYD GIBBONS Famous Headline Hunter. I- ,,?g aot a yarn here, lads and lassies, that is just another illustra tion °of the" fact that you don’t have to go to the far comers of the I j,! to find adventure. This yarn comes to us from Donald Adams, Sd bv golly, the adventure Don ran into is too strange to have any- I 9V ' but right here in our own amazing United States. I Ton’ll ncver expect this sort of thing to happen In Darkest Africa or In SnriIfl and Woolly Asia- n lust couldn’t happen In Europe. I But it did happen right in Boston, in the year 1917—and what’s more, Don I !flams run pro\ e it.Don is a carpenter, and he’s done work all over New England. He hopes, though, that he never has to do another Job for anybody who even remotely resembles that big stiff he ran up against In Boston. Doa will never forget his name, but relaying it on to yon Is a Job I don’t ■ , tackle, because that bird’s monicker was about two feet, long, and full I Hs and k‘s. and neither Don nor I can pronounce it, and only two people In Itte whole world outside of Einstein could speil IL More Muscles Than Letters in His Name. Ihe fellow, himself, was about as big as his name, and two or three times I hard 1° Set along with. He hadn't been In this country very long and he Ia Je Earned little English. Don Adams didn’t know very much about him, but lie had a carpentering job to be done; and Don went to work and did it for him. It was a contract job, and the price agreed upon was a hundred and seventy-five dollars. Don finished it-up In about three weeks, and dur. log that time he hardly ever saw the big fellow, although his wife and eleven children were home most of the time. Mhen he was all through, Don gave his bill to the man's wife and left, Ienieotins t0 receive his money before long. Don waited a couple of weeks but no money came. Then he began to get Iilort of dough and went around to the big fellow’s house to see what was the I matter. He rapped at the door and the big fellow himself opened IL "M'hat you want?” he said, as Don stepped into the hall. This Was a Reception, but No Tea Party. The Hg fellow was scowling darkly. He,stood facing Don'with his chin I ont-thrust, Iiis arms held out from his sides In a menacing attitude. Don didn’t fiunite know what to nuike of it. , , -M'hy.-’ he said, “I’ve come for my money.” Without saying a word, the big fellow picked up a chair, raised it high in the air and brought it down on Don’s head. Don reeled and fell to the floor. The chair had caught him a nasty wallop. “If I know what is coming,” says Don, “I can generally manage to take Itare of myself. But the thing happened so unexpectedly that I didn’t have a “Standing Over Me With a Knife In His Hand." I dance. I got to my feet again, frightened and surprised. I started to call for j help, and immediately the chair crashed down on me again.” This time Don tried to dodge the chair. He turned so that it missed his I head but it hit him in the shoulder and knocked him down again. A sick feel- [ Iif came over him but be didn’t lose consciousness. From what seemed to be a great distance away, he heard the big fellow I roaring at him. “Get out of this house,” he was bellowing, “and If you ask for money again I cut your head off and burn you up in the stove.” Don struggled to rise—managed to prop himself tip on one elbow. ''Iiookea at him,” he says, “and could see hinjr dimly, standing over me [with a long curved knife In his hand. I was,'so overcome by fear that I J thought I must surely collapse. I crawled to the door, got crazily to my feet [ md tried to go out the door. But the door was locked.” Bon Would Have Sold His.Life Cheaply.

" Washington.—Since it is only- a few weeks until- congress comes 'back to. D- o Li Washington for the Dig rroblems second session of the Aheiod Seventy-fourth con gress, some of the problems which Persldent Boosevelt must face have begun to take recogniz able shape. There are any number of them, some great, some small, but that one which stands out at this writing involves the alignment shown between Premdent Roosevelt and business Interests. . , • It is a very interesting situation. Some weeks ago, the President prom ised business a "breathing spell.” No one knew at that time how long this “breathing spell” was to last nor did anyone know exactly what’ It meant beyond the President’s verbal state ment that his New Deal program was virtually completed Insofar as legisla tion was concerned. Through a com bination of circumstances, the Presi dent’s promise of a “breathing spell” for business has not only failed to placate business but at the same time has led to a determination on-the part of business-to go to bat with the New Deal. All of the information I have been able to gather indicates a distinct stiffening of resistance to the New Deal by all types of business Interests, either corporate of _ Indi vidual. There can be no doubt that a large segment of business is emphatic In its demand that New Deal spending be reduced. That section of the country’s economic life Is determined to force New Deal plans for spending back within the boundaries of what busi ness interests hold to be reasonable. Having that determination, opponents of New Deal spending have at once something into which they can sink their teeth, namely, the annual gov ernment budget In the nature of things, it and the President’s annual message on the state of the Union go to congress in Its first week of life. That means the country will hear at the very outset of the session some thing of Mr. Roosevelt’s plans for fur ther cash outlays. The budget cannot be balanced In the-next year. Consequently, the gov ernment debt, now above $30,000,000,- 000, will be further Increased. It means, moreover, that before long there will have to be additional taxes. These Increases In the tax levies probably will not come before the forthcoming session of congress but they cannot be much longer delayed because retire ment of the gigantic debt is pressing even how. The business viewpoint, of course, naturally Ib cohcerned most of all with: potential tax increases. Business realizes that once the relief expendi tures are cut down, common sense will demand revision of the tax structure in order that the vast amount of gov ernment bonds, notes and bills out standing shall be liquidated In an or derly basts. So, In concentrating at this time on government spending, op ponents of the New Deal actually are looking into the future and planning as far as they can to hold down the tax load they know they must carry sooner or later. It is quite, obvious that there, will be no change In the way of Increased levies of taxes.at the 1936 session of congress because, after all, political parties do not raise tax rates In an election year. But this government Is due to continue as a government for this nation and the .retirement of the $30,000,000,000 debt cannot be dodged. ' BYom the White House. and. from Warm-Springs, Ga., where the President lately took his annual Turns to Thanksgiving rest, Economy there came announce ments, both direct and Inspired, that the President was turn ing to economy. In the government out lay. The information, of, an official character. Indicated a desire on the ■part of tiie President, to cut the ordi nary.. expenditures of the government by: $500,000,000 for the fiscal year be ginning iJuly I, 1936. The budget that will go to congress In. the first week of January will, cover the .Bo-called ordinary expenses. On the surface It appears that, this" budget vvlll aggre gate about $4,000,000,000—just about the same as the budget for. ordinary expenses .of 'the government-;In the current 12-month period. "But there bas been no indication yet what the total of the. extraordinary expenditures of the government will be. We have, as you know,' really two budgets. ThellOrdinary budget Is like the-budget that has been used' since • the passage of the budget and ac counting act In 1922. It covers the running ^expenses of all of the estab lished governmental agencies,’provides for-air Held, work and carries ,appropri ations for payment of- Interest on the government debt and a blje or-two for retirement - of outstanding bonds. The extraordlnary^expenditures under Pres ident Roosevelt’s- practices have been handled separately,. being ,.passed by congress In the form of a resolution for recovery and-, relief or some other siqeb language .making/si lfimp appro priation. . .. ... .•:'"..It Mlbbe h matter then to Which at tention should be .paid when -the reg- WA5H1NGT0N, D-.L ular budget goes to congress and the President In his,annual message gives some Idea of what he proposes to spend for relief and recovery later on. The two must be taken together. Fur ther, I believe If past’practices are re peated, there will be White House, re quests for supplementary appropria tions for the ordinary expenditures as well so that the total may not be dis closed for several months after con gress meets. • • • Under conditions that always have prevailed, the political party In power, ftun im. has Mways avoidedutmcult tearing down bureauc- Task racy In Washington In an election year. The civil lists of the government include- most of the local politicians on whom the party In power must depend In its campaign for "re-election. To remove many of them means naturally the loss of power In the local communities and no political party can hope to win by tearing down its campaign machinery in that manner. Thus, Mr. Roosevelt’s task appears difficult He will be seeking economy In government outlays In an effort to satisfy and reassure business which Is calling for economy. At the same time he is under the necessity of holding his political machine intact as the vehicle upon which he will seek to ride to re-election. Besides this circumstance, there Is the snarling and gnashing of business Interests at the heels of the New Deal because bumness leaders contend the government is trying to run everything. Although the NBA Is dead, there re main such things as the social security act which carries a tax on business pay roils; the Guffey coal control law with its taxing powers, and the steady encroachment of government In busi ness as is exemplified by the Tennes see Valley electric power project. It is no secret that business interests do not like any of these things and business has Its heavy guns loaded to wreck the man who, by Introducing the NCw Deal, must take responsibility for the government policies to which busi ness objects.• » • Senator William E. Borah of Idaho his been much in the news lately. He Is indulging In a - Borah s sport, or a game, he Activity takes up once each four years. The date of this activity always coincides each time with the maneuvering that pre cedes the selection of the Republican Presidential nominee. Congress being In recess, very few sentors or Representatives are In Washington. When they are scat tered to their homes, most of them rate very little publicity outside of their own bailiwicks. So, whefher Senator Borah is In Washington or at his home in Idaho, he commands atten tion and hits the front page whenever he chooses to speak. The current circumstances involving Senator Borah, therefore, are no dif ferent than those which surrounded him in previous periods when political discussions ran to Presidential nom inees and party platforms, except that Senator Borah this time has com manded a little more attention and has been on the front pages with his state ments to a greater extent than In pre vious years. This results from the. situation in which the Republican party, being the minority party now, finds Itself. The woods are full of potential Re publican Presidential nominees.' Fa vorite sons are everywhere. In the midst of all of this sfands the. figure, somewhat bulky, of Senator Borah. He has given every Indication In the last several months: first, that he is not a candidate for the nomina tion ; second, that he is a candidate for the nomination, and third, that ha has not made up his mind. He has done all of these things well and no one knows whether he is a candidate or whether he -is not a candidate or. whether he has not made up his mind. Having made quite clear that I am not informed as to Senator Borah’s plans, I can fairly relate some of the things that have happened heretofore. I can recall for example that many times the Borah maneuvers have had as their objective the establishment of a political circumstance for the senator that has enabled him to exert unusua' Influence on the. Republican" nations convention when It came time to write a party platform and select the party standard bearer. I believe it Is fair to state that Senator Borah is a master tactician In this regard. I know that some of the old-line party wheelhorses fear him and ,his tactics immeasurably. I have seen evidences of that fear during the last several months, and: I have no doubt that there will be more of It displayed IiTthe mdnths to come. Astute ■ political - observers around Washington contend that the senator’s outward, !flirtation with the question of a Presidential candidacy Is nothing more -nor less'than a repetition of what be has done before. They argue that Senator Borah wants to dominate the 1936 convention of the Republicans and he- is-laying the ground work to. that mid right mow.©Wevtarn N«w*»M>er Union. ..

Lesson for December 22 MALACHI FORETELLS X NEW DAY LESSON TEXT—MalacM 3:1-13. GOLDEN TEXT—Behold, I will send my messenger, and h e. shall prepare the way .before!'me. Malachl *3:1. PRIMARY TOPIC—God’s Best Prom ise Comes True. JUNIOR TOPIC—How God Kept His Best Promise.. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Bringing In a Better Day. TOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Preparing the Way of the Lordl (The lesson committee has provided as an alternative a Christmas lesson, using the text Matthew 2:1-12). The subject of today's lesson Is broader than the printed text In order effectively to teach this lesson, the entire Book of Malachl should be surveyed. The prophet pointed but the sins of the corrupt priesthood, mixed marriages, and failure to pay tithes, with the portrayal of the coming Judg ment and glorious new day with Christ reigning In his glorious kingdom. I. The Base Ingratitude of Israel (1:1-5). God approached them with the ten der affirmation, “I have loved thee.” It was the burden of the prophet to de clare this fact unto them (v. I). So worldly were the people that they failed to discern God’s good hand upon them. Israel’s attitude toward God Is shown In the skeptical question. “Wherein hast thou loved us?” (v. 2). Malachi answers this question by show ing God’s choice of Jacob and his pass ing by of Esau, his destruction of Edom and his saving of Israel. II. God’s Severe Indictment (1:6- 2:17; 3:7-15). 1. Against the priests (l:6-2:9). They were guilty of a. Profanity (1:6). Their profanity consisted In despising the name ot God. To fall to honor God is to be profane. To use his name in any un real way is to be thus guilty. b. Sacrilege (1:7,8). Their sacri legious act was in offering polluted bread and blemished sacrifices. c. Greeil (1:10). They were not willing even to open the doors of God’s house without pay. Service to God should be out of a beart of love for him. " id. Weariness (l:12,i3). Because of the absence Of love, the routine of priestly duties became irksome. e. Not teaching the law to the peo ple (2:1-9). Those set apart to teach God’s law to the people have a great responsibility and God will most as suredly demand an accounting. 2. Against the people (2:10-17; 8:7-15). - a. For ungodly marriages (2:11,12). God’s purpose In the prohibition of mixed marriages was that he might raise up a holy seed (v. 15). Marriage with the heathen would frustrate this purpose. Marriage of the believer with the unbeliever today brings con fusion into the fold of God and. turns aside iiis purpose b. Divorce (2:13-16). Divorce In Israel was the source of great sorrow. Even the tears of the wronged women covered the altar (v. 13). The offer ings of the man who had thus treated his wife would be an abomination to God. e Public wrongs (3:5. 6). (1) Sorcery or magical arts. This includes the practice of occult sciences, such as spiritism, necromancy, fortune telling. (2). Adultery. This is a sin of wider extent than the direct parties con cerned. It is a canker which gnaws In the very heart of society. Unfaith fulness to the marriage relation should be regarded as a public sin. Such sinners should be ostracized from society.' (3) False swearing. _ . (4) Oppression of the hireling, the widow, and' the fatherless. (5) Turning aside the stranger from his rights. d. Withholding tithes from God (3:7-12). Failure to pay tithes Is rob bery of God. His claim upon Israel was-a tenth, plus free will offerings. Our responsibility is to give as God prospers us (I Cor. 16:1). p. Blasphemy (3:13-15). Theyopen- ly' spake against God, saying that It was profitless and vain to serve him. III. The Awful Judgment Which Shall Befall the Nation (3:1-5; 4:1-6). 1. By whom executed (v. I). It is to be done by the Lord. All judgmen- hath been committed unto the Son of God (John 5:22, 30; Cf. Acts. 17:30,31).. 2. .The time of (3:2-4:l).‘ It will be at the second coming of Christ. John the Baptist was the forerunner ot his first coming. Elijah will be the forerunner of his second coming. 3. The result (3:3, 4, 16-18; 4:1, 2). For the righteous it will be a day of healing and salvation; for the wicked it will be a day of burning and 'de struction. ______ A •Mother'* Love: If there be aught surpassing human deed or word or thought, If Is b moth er’s love!—De Spradaro.

He told the corre spondents that the chief bidders for the K 1Ilu -SIi convention would be- «■£ 4jg Philadelphia, Chicago, jgnHP SL Louis, Kansas City and San Francisco, and denied the report . J. A. Farley that the first named city already had been decided upon. He said he thought the highest bidder would be selected, provided It has ad equate convention hall and hotel fa cilities. Stories that Senator Donahey of Ohio or some one else would be given second place on the ticket instead of Garner were laughed at by Mr. Far ley. He asserted that there was no doubt about the renomination of Gar ner for vice president. Asked about the two-thirds rule, he said the com mittee might recommend its abandon ment, but that any change was the business of the convention. Comment ing on the Literary Digest poll, which shows a majority in the middlewest states voting against the Roosevelt New Deal, Farley said: “So far as the poll relates to senti ment In the midwest states, like Iowa, it is 100 per cent wrong." He insisted that the President was very strong, not only in that section of the coun try, but In every part “The President will' carry as many states next year as he did In 1932,” said Farley. Roosevelt carried all ex cept six states at that time. Farley said he believed Roosevelt would win the electoral vote of Pennsylvania, one of the states that voted for Hoover In 1932, and that also there was a good chance of carrying New Hampshire.

Should big business fail to ac cept this “broader responsibility,’’ it will bring, he said, the “urge for more and more interference from without— government in business.” Mr. Sloan conceded the gravity and the extreme importance of problems of today—the paramount necessity of charting a sound course for the “long future.” He advocated: “I—Reduction In the real costs and selling prices of goods and services. “2—A more economic balance of na tional income through policies affect ing wages, hours, prices and profits.” The meeting of the congress was held in conjunction with the fortieth annual convention of the Nafional As sociation of Manufacturers, and the speakers before^ that body were as em phatic In their condemnation of the economic policies of the administration as was Mr. Sloan. President C. L. Bar- do said: “Whether we like It or not, Industry has been forced in sheer self- defense to enter the political arena or be destroyed as a private enterprise.” ■ General Counsel J. A.

EUROPEAN diplomats; especially the British and Premier Laval of France, are exceedingly clever and re sourceful, but if they are to extricate their nations from the present threatening state of affairs they f' will need all their £ smartness. Though de cision as to the impo sition of -an oil em bargo against Italy was postponed until December 12 to give Laval a chance to con ciliate Mussolini, the duce refused to make any gesture toward peace. Italians were authoritatively warned not to mistake diplomatic exchanges between their premier and the representatives of GredF Britain and France as “peace talk,” and were told there was no rea son to believe Mussolini had modified bis minimum terms already presented to Sir Erie Drummond and Laval's representative. Also he has declined further to conciliate Britain by re moving1 more troops from Libya and has repeated his warning that be will consider an oil embargo an unfriendly gesture. He and . all Italians are espe cially resentfui against Great Britain, which apparently intends to insist on the oil ban. And now they are getting very sore at France, despite Laval’s efforts to maintain friendly relations between the two countries. There were reports that Italian troops were being massed along the French frontier. One more rather desperate imove for peace was made in Paris when Lava) gave Italian Ambassador Cerruti a “set of suggestions” which were said to be the last word from France and Great Britain before • the applying of the oil embargo, due on December 12. These suggestions were said to be based principally on an exchange of territories between Italy and Ethi opia, the latter to receive its long- sought seaport and to remain abso lutely independent^ save for the lands granted to Italy. The feeling In Rome was pessimistic, and there was noted a general tighten ing up of home defenses. Troops that had been expected to depart, for the Ethiopian front were being retained in Italy, and the orders to the naval and air forces were suggestive. New economic measures to resist the sanc tions were being put lhto. effect daily. Tbe British government was en grossed with the 'troublous situation. Sir Samuel Hoare, foreign secretary, received timely orders from his physi cian to take a rest in Switzerland, and it was announced he would stop In Paris for a conference with Premier - Laval. The admiralty was preparing for eventualities and ordered officers of the royal navy reserve to report at once for duty at Plymouth. These men have’been- servingas officers and en gineers in the merchant marine. GEN.

Hayao Tada, Japanese commander In north China, said: “War between. China and Japan is certain if China breaks the agreement signed last July In which Nanking agreed not to send troops Intp Hopei province.” At the same time Japanese war planes were flying low over Peiping. ISECRETARY OF.STATE HULL sent to London the usual polite reminder that the semi-annual war debt in stallment from;Great-Britain was due on December' 15.

' A Frock With Slender ; Lines for Matron Who - Wears Size Forly-Six PATTERN-S48T Here’s a real “find” for the woman who’s a size forty-six, and has been seeking a dressy frock that will ably conceal extra pounds, yet allow her to look as young as she feels.

The I Won’t Workers. lJnion Republican Officials of the WPA are com plaining that they cannot get work ers for their projects that many of those on the dole turn up their noses at work and are relying on the government, to feed and clothe them. It is nothing more than we ex pected. We long ago predicted that the Roosevelt Administration was turning the country into a generation of idlers and parasites and the prediction is coming true There are thousands who have been getting ‘‘relief’ from the gov ernment who should never have been placed on the re'ief rolls and now that they have an opportunity to work they refuse to do so. Commentator Clark, i n the Greensboro News writing of the maun in which some of these peo pie are acting saying those in au thority have the remedy for such idlers in their own hands. Mr Clark says: “ The remedy of course is to deny further aid to all who can work and won’t. The W PA director and federal relief agencies can ef fectively apply the remedy and should, without delay. Possibly they do and the information put out is to get ahead of the stores of unworthy relief beneficiaries, who will say they are unjustly denied. But the impression from the fre quent reports of relief beneficiaries refusing work is that the relief peo ple are helpless and can’t do any- anything about it, That may. noA. be anything about it. That may oot be meant but a few reports a- bout the number who has been cut off all relief and left to go on their own—the best thing that could happen to large numbers of them, regardless of how they may vote in the coming primary or any other election—will be most pleasing to the general public If the idea gets about the separation, that will be no dally about the separation, that will tend to put the relief and work projects business in much better odor. If and when failure to obtain sufficient workers from telief rolls makes it impossible to can y on the works projects expected to - obtain labor from this source many, of the projects not worth while, as a bandoned, or should be, and the money saved In case of prospects partially under way, projects worth while, and where abandonment would cause a loss of the money already spent, i f relief labor couldn’t be obtained from other sources tben the non-relief variety should be utilized. The sugges tion isn’t original. It would be the course of business Whether business can be applied to govern ment relief propects may be open to question, and is very much ques tioned at times in the way of pro jects are carried on.” 29-Year-Old Preacher FatherOf 11. Rev. Robert Early, 29-yearold minister, who lives three miles from R u th erford ton 1 is the father of n children, 10 of whom are living. There are no twins or triplets in the family—all singles. Earlv w as married when he was 16 years old. The age of his wife was not given in the report sent out about this remarkakle family. T h e oldest child is 12 years old and the young est is just twd weeks old. P a r to lm a n Quits. W. L. Mewborne, state patrol man stationed at Elizabeth City,, has resigned, according to the ‘Big Chief” at Raleigh, after complaints had been lodged against him charg ing the use of intoxicants. NUMBER 23 Would Recover His Ten Dollars. Rockingham county man has filed suit in Wake Superior court, against Revenue Commissioner A. J. Max well, for the recovery of $io sales tax which the state collected on an automobile bought in Virginia There are many who will await the outcome with a great deal cf inter est. The last legislature put a maxi mum of $10 sales tax on purchases, obviously purposing to avoid the gravitation of business across state lines. Under this section of, the law the mas who buys a second hand car costing as much as $335, pays for. this privilegr of buying, the same ten dollars that his more fortune neighbor pays when he shells out for a palace on wheels costing twenty, times that much The society dame able to pay $100,- 000 for pearls and diamonds, at this maximum rate, pays only one- hundredth of I per cent on her buy, while her washerwoman pays 3 per cent on her fat-back and molasses. In the case pf the automobile bought across the border this state has a strangehold on, that ten bucks, because it refuses to issue license for operation here uhii! the tax is paid. North Caroiitia has no such leverage , against .the lady who shops for'pearls and-diamonds beyond the line.. Thus it would seem that the Rockingham county man has just cause tocomplaihjthat he is being discriminated against, not only in favor_of .those able to pay more for their cars, with the same privilege tax: apply ing, but also in favor of those wbo bring tbeir purchasers back home without contibuting a penny. The case in'Wake Superiprcourt will test the validity of that portion of the 1935 sales tax which under takes to impose the sales tax or ils equivalent upon' the purchase of automobiles in' other states by resi dents pf North Carolina, but what ever the decision, may be it will not effect the immense volume of busi ness that has been driven from the Carolina -tradesmen to those in other states. Merchants and dealers in border counties have presented staggering figures representing their loss in volume of trade,; Naturally they are the gteatest,losers ,yet right here in Iredell county it is known that rural neighbors have- clubbed together and brought, truck loads of merchandise from.Vifginia, pay in g the costs of transportation and saving money. • Should the section in the law per taining to the purchase of auto mobiles be declared discriminatory and invalid the car, dealers would find their customers leaving them by droves, and they - would have to turn their, salesrooms into service stations where the collection of the tax is less ’ painful. — Statesville Daily. Seeks Big Fee. Considerable comment. developed when it was discovered that Arthur F. Mullen, former Dempcratic Na tional Committeeman from Ne brasfca;-was seeking a fee of $17S r ’ 000 for help in establishing two FW A projects in his state.

Outsiders make a grave mistake if they assume that Governor Tal- madge is merely a nonentity in the politics of Georgia and a temporary, flyrby night factor in the. Demo cratic councils of that State. •. 'As"a matter'of fact, b'e seCmS Tb to have the organization more than merely ruffled. Governor Talmadge has made the sort of Governor that pleases the people. While his vicious thrusts at the New Deal have made him some enemies he continues to hold the support of diverse elements in the Cracker State. Business men will acknowledge his good strategy in running the State government without extrava gances.and by reduced taxes. That pleases the ownership mind and element of che State. At- the same time, he has mingled with this strong budgetary capacity a shrewd appeal to the rank and file of the State’s democracy. It is unthinkable, of course, that he would be able, with all of its present strength, to defeat the aims of Georgia party leaders to give their State easily back into the hands of President Roosevelt, but that Governor Talmadge is proving a thorn in their flesh is not to be denied, once the apparent facts of the case are given frank considera tion.—Chariotte Observer. One Preacher Who Doesn’t Quit. Rev. ,D. H. Tuttle, native of Caldwell county, in his day one of the leading Methodist ministers of the state, now living in retirement at Selma, is 78 years old and al though not in active pastoral work, does each year • consiberable work. The habit of keeping records has continued through the years and for this reason a summary of his activities for the past year is avail able. ; An1 important'part of Mr. Tut tle’s work is the distribution of re ligious literature. Last year be gave out 22 Bibles, 47® one and two cent portions of the Bible, 18 Testaments and Psalms for, aged, 433” religious papers, more than 1250 tracts, 30 assorted booklets. ‘ He performed during the. ,year 11 marriage ceremonies, conducted 13 funerals, and “ prdached eight sermons.

Drys Fight Rum With rSt Louis,‘ Dec 2.—The nation’s drys today launched a campaign of song against “demon rum.” - “ Buy dry” “repeal has failed.” “I ’m still for prohibition;” "vote the booze away,” “save o.u r youth",” ' "havei“you (cbunied''Tibe cost,’.; and “save oar land” were among the titles of songs sung and distributed at the national conven tion of the Anti Saloon League in session here. To the tune of “Maryland, My Maryland,” the delegates chanted their version, “buy dry:” “I will not eat my waffies brown, Alongside one who gulps beer down; I ’ll take my patronage away And bunt me up a new cafe. The grocery where I used to buy, SellsbeerontapwbileIstand by; I ’ll not go back though. I go far. I ’ll buy no groceries o’er a bar.” A second verse contained the words: “The strangest thing, don’t guess, you’ll lose, my filling sta tion’s selling booze.” Homer Rodenheaver, evangelist and former song leader for the late BiUy Sunday, sang his “ Repeal Has Failed,” while Bishop W. N. Ainsworth of the Methodist Episco pal Church, South, stood by, clap ped bis bands and shouted approval. Intoxicated*--Lost His Sense of Direction. A Southern politician was on a visit to Washington recently with a delegation to see about some money to help the cotton planters of his state. Feeling bis oats, he made the mistake of imbibing free ly of some whisky which one of bis fellow travelers offered him The whisky was labeled "Squirrel Whisky” —because it made those who drank it want to find a tree and climb it When the party went to the railroad station-for the purpose of returning home, this man accidentally got on a train bound for Cnicago, instead of one going south. (The manager of the party, on discovering the: mistake, wired the conductor of the Chicago train saying: “Send shot, fat man named Johnson back by next east- >;l^juijd train, is intoxicated.” It. wasn’t long: before they got a ,reply from the conductor. ' Tt said: !‘‘There are 23 intoxicated'-men on this train, and none of them know eitheir their name or destination.” No More Weddings.

As to tbeir trustworthiness I may say that he is the author of many books pnarcheolof^randMXMtronpmy^^-r ancient nfathematics and a work' on....... government, economics and finance. He says, among other things: “Kansas received checks for $52,- 000,000 during the last fiscal year for not raising wheat and is now import ing wheat from Canada, 'payipg a tariff on it. Three hundred thousand sows killed, which, when for rowed, equals 3.000.000 pigs, and in addition 3,000,000 pigs killed, a total of 6.Q00,- 000, Sixteen millllion head of cattle killed, 80 per: cent of which .were burned and buried. Restriction of wheat production 16.000.000 acres. The same percentage applies to oats, barley, rice and tobacco. Restriction of cotton production, 18.000.000 acres and of corn production, 10,000,000 acres During- the past year ' the United Statesis importing more corn wheat hogs than ever before in- the history of the nation. Cattle:; and beef are b*ing imported from MOxico and Argentina, also corn at thelraie of 1.000,000 bushels a day. Daring the month of November. 1934,'.30,- 000,000 pounds of cottonseed oil,were imported, and the rate'.of importa tions has not diminished. The South has IoBt more than 40 per cent Of its export cotton trade, never to be' re gained; inasmuch as Japan, India, Egypt. Equatorial Africa. Argen tina, Peru and Mexico have increas ed their cotton production three to four fold. The same thing applies to tobacco in Equatorial Africa.; “Who of normal mind believesthat abundance is produced by scarcity? Hundreds of millions of dollars are being wasted in the purchase of. sub- marginal and swamp lands as a re fuge for wild fowls and other im practical purposes. Tbe evil to be deplored is the process tax. Heat, corn and wheat praducts are 200 to 300 per cent higher, yet farmer# are paid not to produce these foods,” This is a most extraordinary and alarming condition of affairs - for potentially the most productive and self-contained.nation in earth—Let ter by Alexender Sydner Lanier in the Washington.

Fsalm 103:17. • PRIMARY TOPIC—HowGod Restored His People.JUNIOR TOPIC—How God Restored His People.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Learning From Great Men. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—God's Providence in History. The method of review must be de termined by the teacher. The grade of the class, the aptitude of the schol ars, and the genius of the teacher are features to be considered. For senior and adult classes, the following sug gestions are made. I. Study the Lessons of the Quar ter as Illustrating the Philosophy of History in God's Oealings With His People in Their Captivity and Restora tion. Assignment of topics should be made at least one week in advance Only adult classes could be expected to use this method. The following subjects might be assigned: Why God permitted Israel to go Into exile. What cure the exile effected for Is rael, I What changed views of life resulted f-om the exile. The bearing of the exile upon prophecy. The relationship of divine chasten ing to divine love. II. Character Study. - Assign the outstanding heroes of the quarter’s lessons to members of the class to have them report This as signment should be made at least one week in advance. Some of the out standing characters for consideration are Isaiah, Jeremiah. Ezekiel, Daniel, Nehemiah, Ezra, Zerubbabel, and lialachi. III. Summary of Contents. This is a method readily usable at all times, and it can be adapted to most of the grades. The following sug gestions are made for the carrying out of this method: Lesson I. The prophecy of Isaiab Is the grand center of the Old Testa ment It pictures the Servant of Je hovah; with great wisdom, gloriously 'executing the divine purpose of. re demption, at the cost of great suffer ing. Lesson 2. Before he was born, Jere miah was ordained by God as a proph et to the nations. He so really took to heart the doom which awaited bis people that he wept sorely. Lesson 3. Jeremiah stood In the gate of the temple in order that the multitudes might hear him. He told the people that God required them to amend their ways, solemnly warning them of impending judgments. Lesson 4. While Belshazzar and bis lords were engaged in drunken revel ry, the mysterious hand recorded the divine judgment There is a coming day of judgment. Lesson 5. Because of Judah’s apos tasy, God permitted the Babylonians to destroy Jerusalem and take the Jews into captivity. Lesson 6. Ezekiel sets forth person al responsibility. On his part, it was to hear God.’s word and to sound forth the warning. The people's responsi bility was to hear and obey. Lesson 7. Tbougb Israel went into captivity as a chastisement, in due time the Lord restored them. In due time God will make good bis covenant agreement with the Jews. Lesson 8. God used, these prophets to stir up the'people to build God’s house. Lesson 9. Ezra was commissioned to lead the people to fo.rsake their sins and return to God. Les'son 10. On hearing of the dis tress of bis brethren in Jerusalem, Nehemiah took the matter to the Lord in prayer. The Lord gave him favor with the king, permitting him to go back to build tne walls of Jerusalem, bearing credentials of authority from the king. Lesson 11. The method used In bringing the people back to God was the reading of the Word of God to them.' Because the Word was made plain to the people, they repented of their sins. Lesson 12. Malachi. as an aid to Nehemiah in effecting reforms, point ed out the sins of the people. He set forth a day of judgment when right eous retribution would be meted out to the wicked, and rewards given to the faithful. We have now concluded our months of study In the Old Testament and will with the new year enter upon a study of the Gospel of Luke.

CHAPTER X I—Continued —15r*“Don’t you Iliink it would be wiser 3f I took care of it for you, Hortie?” inggested she demurely. “You are dreadfully, careless. Only a moment ago you had no Idea where the ring was. It It is on my finger you’ll know exactly.” “Bully Idea! So I shall! Now tell me where you’re off to. Tou were In a frightful hurry when you burst through that door.” “So I was,” agreed Sylvia. “And Sere I am loitering and almost forget ting my errand. Come! We must Surry. I’ve got to go to town. Want to row me over?” “Ton bet your life! Show me. the Seat”Beading the way to the yellow dory, she took her place opposite him and Se pushed off.As they sat facing one another, her «ycs roamed over his brown suit; his matching tie, handkerchief and socks; Sls immaculate linen; his general air «f careful grooming, and she could not but admit he wore bis clothes well. He was not a small town product Three years in an eastern prepara tory school, followed by four years of college life had knocked all that might Save been provincial out of Horatio Junior. Nevertheless these reflections, inter esting though they were, proved noth ing about his knowledge of the water. Then she suddenly became aware that the boat was being guided by a master hand. “Why, Hortie Fuller, I had no idea jou could row like this !"'exclaimed she with admiration. Horatio deigned no response. “Wherever did you learn to pull such xo oar?” “Varsity Crew.” “Of course. I had forgotten,” she apologized, her eyes following as with ®ach splendid stroke the craft shot forward. Although the oarsman ignored her approbation he was not unmindful of It “Where do we land?” he asked. “Anywhere.” He bent forward and with one final magnificent sweep sent the nose of the dory on; of the channel. “Come on,” he called, leaping to Sie beach. “But—but, Hortie—I can’t get ashore here. BH wet my white shoes.” "Jump.” “It’s too far. Pull the boat higher on the sand.” “Not on your life. Jump, darling! 331 catch you.” She. stood up In the bow. . “I can’t It’s too far.” Ttonsense! Where’s your sporting Slood ? Don’t be afraid. I’m right • here.” “Suppose you shouldn't catch me?” “But I shall.” He would. She was certain of It Still she wavered. “I don’t want to jump,” she pouted. “You’ll1 have to. Come on, Beau- Hful. You're wasting time.” “I think you are perfectly horrid,” Sie flung out as she sprang forward. An instant later she was in his arms and tight in a grip she knew herself powerless to loosen. “Let me go, Hortie! Let me go!” she pleaded. “I shall, sweetheart. All In good time. Before I set you free, though, we must settle one trivial point. Are we engaged, or are we not?” She made no answer. “If we’re- not,” he went on, T In tend to duck you in the water. If we are, you shall tell me you love me #nd go free.” A swift, shy smile illuminated her lace. “Ir—I.—don’t want to be ducked, Sortie” she murmured, raising her arms to his neck. “You precious thing! You shan’t be. Wow the rest of it. Say you love me.” T guess you know that” “But I wish to hear you say It” T—I—think I do.” “That’s a half-hearted statement” T -I—know I do, Hortie.” “Ah, that is better. .And I love \. ion, Sylvia. Loving, you is an old, old Btory with me—a sort of habit I shall Bever change. Tou are too much a part Of me, Sylvia. Now pay the boat man and you shall go. One is too cheap. Two is miserly. The fare is three. I won’t take less.” “I consider your methods despic able,” announced the girl when at last be reluctantly put her down on her feet “You blackmailed me.” “I know my Sylvia,” he countered. TPerhaps you’d rather I trundled back to New ,York tomorrow and offered the ring to Estelle.” “Silly! I was only fooling,” she protested quickly, linking her arm in Ms. “This Bing would never fit Es telle, dearest Her hands are tre mendous. DldWt you - ever notice Hiem?' They, are- almost as Iargev as a man’s.' I< never saw such hands.” “She’s, am awful nice girl just the Same. ; ’ . “I don’t doubt that Come. We Bmst quit fooling now and hurry or we shall never get home. Marcia will hr frantic.'! “Marcia?” • “My aunt I have so much to tell jou I hardly know where to begin,” Mghed Sylvia. “Do- listen carefully, fer I need, your advice.” “What about?” ‘ “A lot of things, . It Is a long story. Ton see Marcia; lias fallen In love with a robber.” “A ^robber? Your aunt?!* “Uh-b jhi I know it sounds odd. but JOU will understand it better after you have heard the details,” nodded Sylivia. “This man, a jewel thief, came to our house one day ship wrecked and hurt, so we took him In. We didn’t know then, of course, that he was a thief. Afterward, when we did, he was sick and we hadn’t the heart to turn him out In fact we couldn’t have done it anyway. He was too fascinating. He was one of the most fascinating men you ever saw.” “He must have ■ been,” Horatio growled.“Oh, he was. I myself almost lost my heart to him.” confessed Sylvia earnestly. “Marcia did.” “Your aunt?” “Yes. : Don’t look so horrified, Hor tie. I realize It seems queer, uncon ventional ; but you’ll understand better when you see Marcia. She is no or dinary person.” “I shouldn’t think she was." Sylvia ignored the comment. “Well, anyway, the robber hid the loot and of course Marcia and I did all we could to protect him. ‘Then one day the Wilton sheriff heard over the radio there had been a jewel robbery on Long Island, and stumbling upon the bidden gems, ar rested Mr. Heath.” “Mr. Heath?” “The thief. Hortie! The thief! How can you be so stupid?” ‘I get you now. You must admit, though, this is some story to under stand.” ‘I know it sounds confused, but In reality it Is perfectly simple If you’ll just pay attention. Well,” the girl hurried on, “I cannot stop to explain all the twists and turns but anyway, the sheriff brought the burglar to Wil ton and Marcia is broken-hearted.” “Broken-hearted! I should think she’d be thankful to be rid of him.” “But you keep forgetting Shd1S in love with him.” “Well, do you wonder I do? What kind of a woman is your aunt? What sort of a gang have you got in with anyhow?” “Hush, Hortie! You mustn’t talk like that,” Sylvia declared. “This affair is too serious. Marcia and the —the—she and Mr. Heath love one an other. It Is terrible because, you see. he has a wife.” “I should call that a stroke of Providence, myself.” “Horatio, I think you sre being very nasty. You are joking about something that is no joking matter.” “I beg your pardon, dear. I wasn’t really—joking. Don’t be angry.. But “Let Me Go, Hortie! Let Me Gol” this' yarn is unbelievable—preposter ous,” explained the man, taking her hand and gently caressing it. “Well, whan Mr. Heath went away from the Homestead, he left behind him a hundred dollars In payment for what Marcia had done for him. It almost killed her.” “She—she—thought she ought to have had more, you mean? a hundred dollars is quite a sum In these days. She would better-have grabbed it tight and been thankful. My respect for this- bandit chap is rising. I should call him an honest gentleman.” “It is useless to. talk with you, Horatio—I can see that,” Sylvia said, stiffening. “A delicate affair like this is evidently beyond your comprehen sion. You cannot seem to understand IL All you do Is to make light of every word I say.” , “I’m not making light On the con trary I guess I am taking the sltua- 'tion far more seriously than you are. I don't like the moral tone of this place at all. It looks to me as if you had got into most undesirable sur roundings. The sooner you are mar ried to me, young Woman, and out of here the better, As for this remark able aunt of yours—” “Stop, Horatiq.! Stop right where you are,” bridled Sylvia. “One more word against Marcia and back home you go so fast you won’t be able to see for ..dust. Pm In earnest, so watch your step.” “The woman has bewitched you,”- frowned Horatio. . ■ - “She has. She bewitches everybody. She’ll bewitch you.” • “Not on your, life!” ■ “Wait and see, Mr. Heath will bewitch yon, too.” “The—the— 7" “Yes, the burglar, bandit/ thief— whatever you choose to call him. Youfil admit it when you meet him. We are going there ijow." “To—to—call?” “To return the check I just told you about You’re the stupidest man I was ever engaged to, Horatio. Why can’t you listen?” “I am listening with all my ears.” “Then the trouble is with your Im agination,” Sylvia said in her loftiest tone, Thdv walked on In silence until presently the girl stopped before the gate of a small, weather-beaten cot tage. “Well, here we, are. at Elisha’s,” she remarked, turning In at the gate. “What’s he got to do with it?” “Mercy, Hortie. You’ll wear me to a shred. Elisha Is the sheriff. I’m go ing to coax him to let us see the pris oner.” “You don’t mean the chap Is jailed here! My—!” he clapped his hand over his mouth. “Why, any red-blood ed man could knock the whole house flat to the ground with a single blow of his fist. I'll bet I could.” ‘There wasn’t any other place to put him.” “Well, if he stays incarcerated In a detention pen like this, he’s a noble- minded convict—that’s all I have to say.” They walked up the narrow clam shell path, bordered by iris and thrifty perennials. As they did so, the sound of a radio drifted through the open window. Sylvia peeped In. Elisha, too intent on the music to hear her step, was sitting before the loud speaker, smoking. Tve come to see Mr. Heath,” she shouted above the wails of a croon ing orchestra. ‘I ain’t sure as I’d oughter let you see him,” hesitated Elisha. “I’ll take the responsibility.” “Wal—mebbe on second thought ’twill do no harm,” he drawled. “He’s round on the back porch. I'd come with you warn’t I waitin’ for the news flashes.” ■That’s all right I can find him.” “Say, who you got with you?” called the sheriff over his shoulder. “He’s nobody—just my fiance.” “Your what?” “The man I am going to marry." “You don't tell me! So you’re gettin’ married, are you? Good lookin’ feller! I heard at the post office you had some chap in the offin'. But to let him see Mr. Heath—I dunno as ’twould be just—” ‘Where I go Horatio goes,” Sylvia retorted. - Elisha weakened. “Wal, in that case—” he began. She waited to hear no more. “Come on, Hortie,” she called. Leaving Elisha absorbed In a saxo phone solo, the two rounded the cor ner of the cottage and found them selves In the presence of Stanley Heath. CHAPTER X II ‘Sylvia!’’ he cried, springing up and advancing toward her with outstretched hand. “Sylvia I What a brick you are to come!” Angry as she was, when face to face with him she could not resist the contagion of his smile. Tm glad to'see you so well,” she said. “This-is Mr. Horatio Fuller of Alton City.” Horatio looked Heath up and down and then stepped forward and gripped his hand with unmistakable cordiality. ’Mighty glad to know you, sir,” was his greeting. “You seem to have got yourself into a jam. If there is any thing I can do—any way I can be of service—” ‘Horatio, you forget we are not here to make a social call,” inter rupted Sylvia, who had by this time regained her routed chilliness and in dignation. “On the contrary, Mr. Heath, we have come on a very pain ful errand. We are returning this check to you.” She extended It toward him, gingerly holding its corner In the tips of her fingers as if it were too foul a thing to touch. “It was outrageous of you, insulting, to leave a thing of this sort for Marcia—to attempt to pay In cash —kindness such as hers.” ‘Tm sorry,” Heath stammered. “Sorry! You couldn’t have been very, sorry, or you woald have sensed such an act would hurt her terribly.” Horatio Fuller fumbled nervously with his tie. ‘You deserve,” swept on young Syl via with rising spirit, “to-be thrashed. Hortie and I both think so—don’t we! Hortie?” Horatio Junior turned crimson. “Oh, I say, Sylvia, go easy I” he protested. “Don’t-drag,me into this. I don’t know one darn thing about it Suppose I just step Inside and listen to the hews flashes-while you and Mr. Heath transact your business. It will be less awkward all round, if yea want me you can speak.” Nodding ‘ courteously in Heath’s di rection, Horatio Junior disappeared “Your. Mr. EuUer is a man of nice feeUng,” Stanley Heath declared look ing after him. “I congratulate you.” “Thank you.* “Everything is settled then?” She nodded. “I hope you will be very hanDv" , She did not reply at once.

N EW YOKK conjures up a vi sion of a great metropolis, a great state where the forest ed Adirondacks rise above vast agricultural lands, where the Hud son river flows placidly from the north woods to the sea, and where the Ni agara river spills a portion of its wa ters and lures hundreds of thousands of tourists annually. But few laymen are aware of the state’s economic and industrial fea tures. Nearly one-fifth of all the life in surance in force In America, both ordi nary and industrial, is held in New York. Approximately half the na tion’s imports, measured alike by ton nage and value, enter the United States through the custom house at the mouth of the Hudson, and more than half of our total export tonnage clears through that port One-seventh of all the net retail sales in the United States were made in New York in a recent year—S?,1000,000,OOO out of $49,- 000,000,000. The Empire state’s role in the man ufacturing realm is a particularly in teresting one. There are some 16 in dustries in which its products consti tute more than one-half of the total output of the entire country and about 60 others in which its share of the na tion’s production is. more than a third. With the gradual growth of manufac turing west of the Alleghenies, there has long been a falling off in New York state’s relative standing In many industries; but as there has been a recession of rank in the making of these wares, there has been a corre sponding expansion In the fabrication of clothing. This expansion has been so notable that it has more than made up for all the losses in other fields and enables New York still to stand out as the leading industrial state of the Union, with about one-seventh of all the nation’s manufactured wares to its credit Leads AU in Clothing. There are only seven states in ,the Union whose total output of manufac tures of every kind surpasses clothing alone in the Empire state. These sev en states are Massachusetts, New Jer sey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Illi nois and California. In 1929 New York-made clothing at factory prices was valued at approxi mately $2,700,000,000. It included three- fourths of the nation’s production of women’s apparel and nearly one-half of the country’s clothes for men. The Dutch practically began their colony on the strength of the fur trade, and J:he latest census shows that New York' is still active in marketing furs, accounting for $22S,000,600 worth of manufactured fur goods out of a total of $277,000,000 for the whole United States. Practically all of the industries in which New York holds this sort of leadership are of the lighter kind. The scepter for the heavier industries has largely passed into the hands of other communities. Specialization in industry applies to communities as well as to wares. Rome calls itself the copper city, and makes about one-tenth of the nation’s output of copperware. . Gloversvtlle is pre eminent in the manufacture of gloves! and turns out more of them than any other community in the country. Ro chester is the optical and photographic- equipment capital of the nation, pro ducing more than a third of the optica] goods of the United States and most of its photographic supplies. Sometimes those who are not New Yorkers have been • inclined to com plain that the Empire state seems to et more than its fair share of bene fits, particularly more than its share of the country’s Income. Especially are they inclined to think'this true of the metropolis itself..' When thus they complain, perhaps It is because they lose stght of the oth er side of the ledger—the measure o'f how much New York produces for the country. Pays Huge Sum? in Taxes. If you were told that every great ir rigation project of every state In the West,'from Yuma and Yakima to Sho shone, has been built from funds sup plied to the federal government by the Jfate 0I 1Jew Iork and is maintainedby funds from her citizens, you would be astonished. Likewise, if you were told that ev ery dollar of all the federal-aid money Ihe government, has-spent so unstiat Jy '“ helping all the states.to de velop, their highway systems- comes from New York, you would be amazed; But wait! As the old showboatrcap tain of radio fame exclaims, “That is only the beginning.” For when Uncle Sam sat down to reckon up what the state of New York did to help him pay. for the running of his government in 1932, he discovered that she supplied him with Income taxes and internal revenue receipts reaching the grand to tal of $744,000,000. He next found that if New York had paid her taxes on a per capita basis, her share of the na tional excise would have called for only $269,000,000. When he deducted this amount from the $744,000,000 ac tually paid In, he found that New York had given him $475,000,000 more than would have been required under a per capita quota. That $475,000,000 certainly proved a godsend to Uncle Sam in meeting his ever-intensifying problem of financing the operations of an increasingly ex acting household. He found that with it he could pay for each and every one of the following items in his budget; every dollar voted to every state for federal aid, whether to roads, National Guard, forest protection, or agricul tural experimentation; the entire ex penses of the legislative branch of the government, including the Library of Congress; the entire cost of the ju dicial branch, including all federal courts and prisons; the cost of the independent offices and bureaus, from the Smithsonian institution and the National museum to the interstate commerce, the federal trade, and the civil service commission; the cost of the Department of the Interior, Including the general land office, the bureau of reclamation, the geological survey, the v bureau of Indian affairs, the office of education, etc.; the whole outlay for the Department of Labor; the cost of the Department of Justice;; and the expenditures required ini the scientific bureaus of the Department of Com merce, from the bureau of standards and the coast and geodetic^ survey to the bureau of fisheries/ the patent of fice, and bureau of mines. In other words, all that Uncle Sam gives the states In federal aid, as well as all that he spends to maintain two of the three branches of the govern ment and three departments of the third branch, plus ail that he spends for scientific research in a fourth de-‘ partment, plus the maintenance of the independent offices, can be met out of New York's added quota of taxation. Abouno's in Dairy Farms. The traveler. roundabout the state of New York readily discovers that much of the attractiveness of its rural scene is due to the marks of careful tillage upon the face of its fertile acres. With a population that is five parts urban and one part rural, there is a vast demand for milk—New York city itself must reach out 300 miles for its supply. Dairy farms therefore abound everywhere. And they call not only for grasslands, but also for cornfield^ and general crops, with the resultant mosaics of color, alike In the Hudson valley, the St. Lawrence- region, and the MohawJc country. In 1929 the state produced 800,000,- 000 gallons of milk, enough to fill a vat ten feet deep and four'and one-l)alf wide, extending from the southern end of Manhattan to the eastern end of Lake Erie via Albany. The vineyards, the orchards of small fruits, and the truck gardens that flour ish oo the slopes that environ the in land lakes, because the warming wa-. ters of the latter cut short the frosts of the springtime and hold back those of the fall, add as-much to the beauty of the area as they add to the pros perity of the region. The Empire state is wedded to Its inland waterways. Through its canal system as a whole it is possible to send ships of 10-foot draft and 300-foot length from New York city into Lake Champlain, to Duluth by way of Buf falo or Wellanfi, or to. Watkins and Ithaca by way of Seneca and Cayuga’- lakes.. ■ Remembering that It was Clinton's 4-foot ditch across the state that laid the foundation . of her greatness,'and at the same time brought /vast bene- fits-to sister states as well as to her self, New York boldly undertook In 1905 to build the Barge:canal between ■the Hudson and the Niagara, with off-' shoots to Rochester, Oswego, and the Finger lakes. It was opened in 1918. The total cost of this important wa terway project to date amounts to nearly $200,000,000. .

I - A D VEN TU R ER S’ CLUB “Soldier in the Sea” By FLOYD GIBBONS Famous Headline Hunter. YOU know, boys and girls, sometimes it seems there ain’t no. jus tice in this adventurous old world of ours and if you don’t believe > just ask Benny Graham. Benny has a tale of adventure and injus tice that happened in the late summer of 1927 off Fort McDowell in Can Francisco Bay, California. BenDJ was ft soldier stationed at Fort McDowell. He was a “casual”—but Ms story Isn’t—awaiting transfer to Schofield barracks, which Is located In the lace Ameiia Earhart commutes to—Hawaii. Now the fort Is on an island in the bay and one day Benny and a pal of His decided to take a swim. One toe in that cold Pacific ocean water and Benny’s pal had enough. “Ion so ahead,” he said, “I’ll watch your clothes.” So Benny went ahead and swam straight out from the Island. He noticed he was making pretty good speed, btit It never occurred to him that a dangerous eorrent was taking him for a ride, until he was miles from nowhere; Strong Ocean Current Sweeps Benny to Sea. Be headed back and yelled for help but an offshore breeze threw his voice right tack at him. Try as he would, Benny couldn't make any headway against the current SO He Sanlly gave np and drifted with it 11I was pretty cold by this time,” Benny writes, “and pretty tired too. The current was carrying me around’the island through the open bay. If I once missed the tip of the Island I know I was as good as i dead. The cold and exhaustion would soon finish me. “It was late In the afternoon and to make matters worse the sun quickly jant beneath the waves and darkness settled around me. I began to lose hope _3 boat could never find me In the dark, and soon I wouldn’t know In which direction to swim. Lighthouse Haven Is Hard to Approach. “I rras swimming as fast as I could—not against the current bnt on a dant with It—headed for the fast disappearing tip of the Island and won- “You Can’t Imagine How I Felt Out There." Masiion It would feel to drown when I saw something that gave me renewed tope. ....... . . “It was a small lighthouse on the tip ot the Island miles away but the current was taking me In that direction I “Beyond the lighthouse was the open bay—and death. But I made up my mind that I wasn’t going to miss It. I'll bet no sailor In a storm was ever happier to see a light than I was that night. Each time It flashed off, as lighthouse signals do, I worried myself sick for fear It would stay out "l’ou can’t imagine how I felt out there In that Ice-cold water knowing that Bj chance lay in hittiBg the rocks beneatb that light They looked awfully small from where I was. "Suddenly to my horror I realized that the current was changing and pulling me from shore. If I continued to let the current carry me now Td end up in the middle of the bay! “There was only one thing to do and I did it. I burled my face In the water and went into a fast crawl, straight for the light I remem bered that when I learnt the crawl they told me to count 10 kicks to each stroke of the arms—I counted 10 prayers to every stroke instead. "Hours went by. Despite my efforts I felt myself freezing to death. Xht llglit never seemed to get nearer. I began to get numb and not care. A Rock Never Before Felt So Comfortable. “And then, just as I was about to sink, my hand hit a rock! I grabbed It Mi held on and after a long rest was able to pull myself ashore—almost dead from cold and exhaustion.” Ana now, boys and girls, comes the sad part of Benny’s yarn. Benny was safe, but unfortunately for him he didn't land at a nudist camp because, you see, he was as free of clothes as the bride at a nudist wedding. He scrambled up the bank and along the road with out even a barrel. It was pitch dark, but the lighthouse that had once proved such a friend in need was now his worst enemy. Every time It flashed Benny had to run for cover. But he finally managed, by fits and starts, to reach a house with 'a light lO It and lie got up his nerve and rang the beli. tf a servant girl had answered Benny’s ring- he probably would still be doing a Tarzan on the Island, but he was In luck for once that day. His own wst sergeant came to the door. Benny Finds Out How Much He’s Missed. * Well, you know how tough those “Top Kickers" can be when a button is of place, so you can Just imagine what this one said when he saw Benny without a button on him! After the storm had passed Ben borrowed,an over- Mt and the non-com drove him back toward camp. They picked up Benny’s clothes first and Benny was shocked to find that his old pal who had been watching them was gone. He got a worse shock a moment lsrter when he found his pocketbook and watch', were also gone! Alas! for the faithlessness of the human race! Benny later found his pal spending his money, wearing his watch, and ht.tadn’t even reported Benny's tragic end I And that, Benny says, was the “most ^Und cut of all." tun?1* ^enny revenge.

T H E NEWSBOY’S GREETING By FRANCES GRINSTEAD I T WAS a frosty morning In the days of Franklin stoves. The paper carrier, a small boy wrapped in a red and black striped muffler, his nose and eyes showing beneath a cast off plush cap of his father’s, and wear ing a nondescript coat once big broth er’s, slipped In the door of the hard ware store with an armful of news papers. He blew his cold breath in the chill air and held his hands to the rapidly heating stove. Only then did he muster nerve to fish in the coat pocket hanging near his knees, and to proffer, with the morning paper, a New Year’s card elaborately printed In two or three colors of ink, and decorated with a variety of borders, rules and sizes ahd styles of type. This he offered shyly, with a re treating motion toward the door. The hardware dealer glanced over his spectacles, looked at the greeting as if surprised, and exclaimed: “Well, well, Henry, but this is nice. Thank you—and here’s a dime.” Henry left the stove’s increasing warmth with more haste than usual. He Glanced Over His Spectacles as If in Surprise. in order to make his New Year’s call upon Miss Mattie, milliner and deal er in thread, needles and buttons. With her and with others on his route —from the mayor to the grocer and blacksmith—he left the daily paper and a copy of the annual work of art from his editor's printshop, convey ing In lines that rippled with elo quence the paper carrier’s hope that his patrons would wax prosperous and maintain a state of general good health “throughout the glad New Year.” Each of his customers would ex press an agreeable surprise and a gratifying knowledge of what was ex pected, responding with gifts that ranged from the hardware man’s dime to the mayor’s fifty cents. Among the samples of work done w'hich printing offices so seldom throw away, there must rest many examples of the carrier boy’s card of thirty to fifty years ago. It was a widespread custom. Under the dusty eaves of one printshop has lain a carrier’s card that will soon round out its century of aging yellow ness. The 120 lines of the “poem” it bears deal with the fleeting charac ter of Time, present the. merits of. Henry Clay over William Henry Haiv rison, and end with this verse:. The Ladies F air!

Dinner parties, except In most elab orate households, must be-limited In the number of guests. Six used to be considered the ideal, number for the small dinner. Nowadays, with bridge addicts, we are likely to stretch the number to eight. Of course tbe menu must be planned carefully so that there will not be long interims between courses. And be snre that you do not overcrowd your table—if you can help it If your dining room table won’t seat eight plgn a buffet supper Instead of a dinner party. A large array of silver is no longer used on the table. The necessary knives, forks and spoons to be used for the first three courses may be arranged on the table, always In tbe order In which they are to be used, beginning from the outside. Knives and spoons are on the.right; forks are on the left If oysters are served instead of, or in addition to the soup, the oyster fork is placed with' the food. If salad is served at a formal dinner the fork arrives with it as do always the dessert forks and spoons. A formal dinner may begin with soup/or oysters. Then comes a fish course, meat and vegetables, some times a salad, and then a dessert. Coffee Is generally served In the liv ing room after dinner. Up to the dessert course there must always be a plate In front of each person. After the courses the plates containing food are removed from the left by the waitress with her left hand. During the meal all dishes are passed to the left Water glasses and wine glasses are filled from the right The wine glasses are lnplace wlien the guests sit down at the table. At a formal meal bread and butter plates are not used. Melba toast, hot rolls and crackers are passed with the various courses. While custom used to omit butter entirely with dinner, the hot rolls may now be split and buttered If you like. Just one more thing about the for mal dinner which can be applied to any meal entertainment Have your flower decorations very low so that they do not Interfere with the guests seeing each other across the table. Tall candles may be used. Do ^not attempt to serve a formal dinner without enough help for food prepara tion and service. Any dinner to oe successful must run so smoothly that neither the guests nor the hostess are over-conscious of the table. Rules Are Sometimes Ignored. While all of us like to know the accepted rules for formal dinner service, we all find that the good hostess dares ignore some of them. If sdie asks her guests to “come to dinner” instead of to a dinner party, she can be as original as she likes. With the present custom of serving a large variety of appetizers before dinner in the living room, appetites are already whetted. The guests will be delighted to find when they go into the dining room, that the roast is already on the table, partially carved, ready for serving quickly. A variety of vegetables, cranberry sauce, hot rolls, celery, relishes, then a green salad and dessert wHl cause all tbe guests to compliment the hostess on her menu. The success of a dinner party de pends on a number of things. Good choice of a menu, Arrangements for efficient service, the use of attractive Records of Achievements More names, dates and records of achievements are carved in the rocky cliffs of the Dog river near Beirut, Syria, than In any other spot on earth.

News Review of Current Events the World Over President’s Defense of AAA and Canadian Treaty—Italy Offered Peace Plan at Ethiopia’s Expense—Naval Conference Seems Hopeless. . By EDWARD W. PICKARD © Western Newspaper Union. WHILE the United States Supreme court was hearing oral arguments In the Hoosac Mills case In which the constitutionality of the whole'Agricul- ■ tural Adjustment act was attacked and de- |l | fended. President Roosevelt was In Chi cago seeking to justify I- the entire New Deal farm program. He ad dressed the American Farm Bureau federa tion In the Interna tional Amphitheaterat the stock yards and was heard and en- George N. thusiastically applaud- Peek e(J by some 25,000 farmers and as many others as could get into the theater and adjoining wings supplied with loud speakers. The farm program, the President said, aimed to “stop the rule of tooth and claw that threw farmers into bank ruptcy or turned them Into serfs.” As evidence that it Is succeeding, he as serted that farm income “has increased nearly $3,000,000,000 in the past two and a half years.”Necessarily Mr. Roosevelt defended the new Canadian trade treaty because only two days before that pact had been bitterly attacked by his late trade adviser, George N. Peek. “Just as I am confident,” said the President, “that the great masses of city people are fair-minded, so I am sure that the great majority of Ameri can farmers will be fair In their judg ment of the new treaty.“If the calamity howlers should happen to be right, you have every as surance that Canada and the United States will join In correcting Inequali ties, but I do not believe for a single moment that the calamity howlers are right. “We export more agricultural prod ucts to Canada than we have imported from her. “We shall continue to do so, for the very simple reason that the United States, with its larger area of agricul tural land, its more varied climate and its vastly greater population, produces far more of most agricultural products, including animal products, vegetables and fruit, than does Canada. “In the case of the few reductions that have been made, quota limitations are set on the amount that may be brought In at the lower rates.” In his analysis of the Canadian agreement,. Peek showed that 84 per cent of the tariff concessions which the New Dealers granted to Canada were on agricultural and forestry prod ucts. He also showed that the articles on which the New Dealers granted tar iff reductions amounted to 308 million dollars in 1929, whereas Canada In re turn had granted concessions on articles valued at only 245 million dollars. After completing hts speech and eat ing luncheon with a lot of local nota bles, the President went to South Bend, Ind., where he received an honorary' degree from Notre Dame university end delivered another address. BEFORE the American Farm Bureau federation closed Its convention in Chicago, it adopted a resolution en dorsing reciprocal trade treaties. To avoid dissension, the resolution did not mention specifically the recent trade agreement between Canada and the United States, which lowered the duty on many farm products coming in over the northern border. Another of the 17 resolutions adopt ed at the meeting concerned “federal fiscal policies.” Indicating their un easiness over the mounting federal deficit, the farmers recommended that the fiscal policies of the government be modified, and that “its revenues shall be increased, and tbat its expen ditures shall be decreased, to., the end that within the next few years a bal ance shall be attained.” The federation also approved a res olution pledging itself to defend the Agricultural Adjustment administra tion act The meeting offered no seri ous criticism of the act, but asked that its administration be simplified. •The delegates, representing a paid np membership of 300,000 farmers In 37 states, re-elected Edward A. O'Neal of Alabama as president of the federa tion for a term of two years. Charles E. Hearst was re-elected vice presi dent and all 15 members of the board of directors were reappointed. An official representative of Russia said to this writer not long since: '1Wg havd nothing to fear from Japan, They waited three years too long.” While Japan was waiting, Russia established a great submarine and air base at Vladivostok, within short striking dis-. tance of everything Japanese. Since then Japan and Russia have got along peacefully. This country may suddenly wake up to find prob lems more Important than any .theory on how to , make everybody happy on abort notice.

Presumably, If Emperor Haile Selassie refuses the terms and decides to continue his fight for the territorial inviolability guaranteed by the league covenant, he will be abandoned to his fate. . ^ Dispatches from Dessye, Ethiopia, said the emperor rejected the Franco- British plan, asserting: “The Ethiopian government cites its previous declarations, notably that of October 8, to show that Ethiopia never wished and does not wish war. But today we are bound to defend our soil, which Italy has violated. “Ethiopia agreed at the time of the' Paris conference and the meeting of the League of Nations committee of five to all concessions comparable to its dignity, to avoid Italian aggression, but that aggression has been commit ted. We cannot submit to force which we never provoked, because that would be rewarding violence.” Since Mussolini showed a disposi tion to consider the proposals, the oil embargo was postponed to permit ne gotiations. If he rejects the plan the embargo would go into effect later and supposedly the war In Africa would continue at least until the rainy sea son next spring. Admiral Nagano PROBABLY with slight hope of ac complishing anything worth while, representatives of the United States, Great Britain, France and Japan met in London and opened the international naval conference. Italy also was represented, but only as an observer and listener. Prime Minister Stanley Bald win welcomed the dele gates In a smooth ad dress asking the chief sea powers to lessen some of their demands to “avert the calamity of unrestricted naval competition.” Norman H. Davis offered President Roosevelt’s suggestion of a 20 per cent ,reduction in existing naval treaty ton nage, or, failing that, a continuance of present fleet limitations. Then arose Admiral Osaml Nagano, chief of the Japanese delegation, and told the conference that Japan de manded parity with Great Britain and the United States Instead of the exist ing 5-5-3 ratio and requested a “just and fair agreement on disarmament.” After several days of discussion and debate, the Japanese demand for parity was flatly rejected by the delegates of the four other nations. The pessimistic feeling that pre vailed was attributed to the Japanese demand for parity, the'r|valry in the Mediterranean between France and Italy, the war In Ethiopia an I its sanc tions developments and recent occur rences in north China. Any one of which might wreck the conference. ITALY Is being punished for starting the war against Ethiopia, and will be well paid for stopping IL That in a nutshell ia the status at this writing. Great Britain and France reached an agreement as to the offer to be made to Mussolini before the’imposition of an oil embargo,' set for’ December 12. This plan for peace, drawn up by Brit ish Foreign Secretary Sir Samuel Hoare and Premiei Laval, was based on the proposal that Italy should. re tain part' of the territory already con quered In Ethiopia,, chiefly In north western Tigre province, Including Adowa but not the sacred city of Ak- sum, and that the Italian Somaliland border should ■ be rectified. In-return, Ethiopia would be given a seaport, either In Eritrea or In British or French territory. Thus poor Ethiopia, THE United States and Great Brit ain, In the conference at Washing ton, agreed upon a plan that Is ex pected to result in regular air mail and passenger ,transportation across the Atlantic by the summer of 1937. Ne gotiations were under way for the northern route by way of Canada, New foundland, and Irish Free State to England, and the southern route from Porto Rico and American ports to England. The northern route is more practica ble than the southern route because of the shorter distance, but Is less prac ticable in winder because flights would be undertaken under less favorable conditions. Under the agreement experimental flights will begin next, summer. When regular service is Inaugurated, accord ing to the agreement, four round trips will be made each week. JOHN H. HOEPPEL, congressman from California, and his son, Charles, were found guilty by a jury In the District of Columbia Supreme court of conspiring to sell.an appoint ment to West Point for $1,000. They were released on ball pending motion for a new trial. Hoeppel was elected to congress in the Roosevelt landslide of 1932 from the Seventeenth Califor nia district, and was re-elected In 1984. He is fifty-four years old; his son is twenty-one. QEORGE L. BERRY, Industriil co- ordinator, found great difficulty In mustering his proposed industrial coun cil, In Which many , great industrial groups had refused to participate. The Initial session of his conference broke up in disorder amid sboujs of “liar” and threatened fist fights,'Further do ings were postponed fora week or more and most of the delegates went, home, declaring they wanted nothing to do with a permanent council which might lead -to further government Interfer ence with private-business. The labor unions stood by Berry, hoping his pro gram would aid their plans for a 30- hour week and government licensing of all Industry. JOHN J. LEWIS, - president of the United Mine Workers and head of the “rebel” committee on industrial or ganization that is seeking to gain con trol of the American Federation of La bor, Invited President William Green of the federation to resign and accept chairmanship of the committee. In a letter to Lewis, Green declared that he never had associated himself with any minority seeking to split the A. F. of L., and never would do so. He mildly rebuked the insurgents by saying that he himself “In a spirit of good sports manship took it on the chin” whenever he had found himself outvoted in the A. F. of L. convention. Adm inistration officials state that President Roosevelt will ask the new congress for a $100,000,000 ap propriation as the Initial fund' to launch the federal social security pro gram going Into effect January I. The fund is to be distributed among the states for the need;; old aged In the form of pensions, for maternity and child welfare, and to aid the blind. State commissioners and public wel fare directors were. summoned to Washington by the social security board to discuss formulation of regula tions and procedure. POLITICIANS, especially Republicans were greatly interested in a meeting In Washington betwfeen former Vice President Charles Curtis and Senator Borah, and its possible Implications. Curtis insisted to the press that he Is still advocating the nomination of Gov. Alf Landon of Kansas for the Presi dency, but the Idaho senator is himself a leading possibility for that honor. Curtis had recently had a conference with Landon In Topeka, but he said there was no connection between that and his call on Borah. The ex-Vlee President said of the nomination: “I have no second choice, but a lot depends on what happens at- the convention. I have the highest regard for the senator. I’m for Landon, who is well equipped to run, after giving us an economic administration in Kan sas—something we need here in Wash ington more now than ever, before.” CARLOS MENDIETA resigned as president of Cuba because of a fierce quarrei In the government over procedure for the election of a con stitutional president. Mendieta had held the office for two years. Secre tary of State Barnet took over the office and reappointed all members of the cabinet, and preparations'-for the election- went ahead. /"'iONTINUOUS rioting In Cairo, di- VJ reeted. against British control of Egypt, attacks on English soldiers and smashing of street cars and shop win dows, forced Premier Nessim Pasha and bis cabinet to decide to resign.

He was obdurate in his refusal untilKing Fuad. Nessim Pasba ' an nounced that be would quit, but yield ed then to avoid disorders similar to- those of 1919. Therefore, with the consent of Great Britain, King Fuad signed a royal de cree restoring constitutional govern ment, and the cabinet members with drew their resignations. The consti tution thus restored provides for a senate and chamber of deputies and takes control of Egypt’s internal affairs completely out of British hands.' It does not, however, affect Britain’s con trol of Egyptian foreign affairs, nor the British military protectorate. VTORTH CHINA autonomists, sup- J-N ported by the Japanese 'armies, evidently are too much for the Nan king government, of which Chiang Kai- shek has now become the premier. The provinces of Hopei and Chahar, with a population of 30,000.000 or more, have been granted virtual self-rule under a political council. The central govern ment made only three stipulations— that Nanking would continue to control the new state’s foreign affairs, finan cial, military and judiciary matters; that all appointments would be made by Nanking, and that there would be no actual independence for the area. No machinery was provided to pre vent the new council from doing exact ly as it pleased under Japanese protection and guidance. BItUNO HAUPTMANN, convicted ot kidnaping and murdering the Lind bergh baby, lost almost his last chance of escaping the electric chair when the Supreme court refused to review his case.

Whether Political he be a big shot In Problema political Ufe or just a ward heeler, his life is constantly beset with diffi culties. Those difficulties always have and always will force him to wiggle and squirm and sprout additional gray hairs. ’ *The newest problem worrying politi cians is the Townsend old age pension proposal. Promoters of that fantastic scheme are gaining such a headway that even James A. Farley, postmaster general, chairman of the Democratic national committee and chairman of the New York state Democratic com mittee, is currently reported to be de veloping frowns on his otherwise smil ing face. When Mr. Farley begins to get worried, there Is cause, indeed, for all of the other politicians, big and little, to get worried. The Republicans also are concerned about the Townsend plan. But it is not quite as important . to the Republicans as it is to the Democrats to take a' stand on the Townsend plan because the Democrats are in control Cf the national admin istration and obviously they are on the defensive. The battle being pressed by Mr. Townsend and his satellites is no small concern. Impossible as it is of opera tion; doomed to/ultimate failure- as such a scheme must definitely be, it continues to expand in its scope of po litical influence and has arrived at the point where it constitutes a power that must be reckoned with by all. I am convinced that anyone who wiU analyze the Townsend plan cannot help arriving at the conclusion that it is comparable to the fantasy of the “Mississippi bubble.” When the Missis sippi bubble broke, not thousands but millions were disillusioned, if not ut terly destroyed, and their economic future, so glowingly painted, was qpm- pletely wrecked.• • * The Townsend plan which contem plates payment'of two hundred dollars per month to the in-Townsend digent is one of those - Plan things that develops invariably in periods of economic distress. It is distinctly a product of hard times. When people are out of work and without resources; when they are suf-‘ fering, they are always prey to any and all argument-offering them relief. The conditions exact even a greater toll, a toll leading to crime Only a few days ago the chief of the secret service, W. H. Moran, told me that it was sTcharacteristic of hard times that counterfeiters of currency were more active Idle hands will find something to do and the clever crook will take advantage of the situation. While every one who has talked with Doctor Townsend recognizes his sincerity, his earnest desire to accomplish relief for the aged and indigent population, I be lieve it is an indisputable fact that Doctor Townsend’s plan would not get to first base except- for the fact' that this country now has millions of citi zens who are almost if not quite with out food. The point I am trying to make is that Doctor Townsend’s scheme, idle dream that it is, has been put forward at one of the few times In this nation’s history when it is possible to amass a following of political importance. It is only In times such as these that people would pay attention to it It will die. down and his organization will crumble sometime in the future but this will not happen nntil it has caused plenty of grief, until it has wrecked! political fortunes of countless scores of men and women who guess wrong and until probably It has pror duced a burden of taxation upon this nation the Uke of which never has been seen before. In the forthcoming campaign, I be lieve we will see numerous political ' candidates, otherwise sound In their thinking, affirm the validity of the Townsend plan. They will commit themselves to fits- support because po litical maneuvers will force them into that position. Some of them, probably more than we now imagine, will be elected to congress and they will bring a gigantic headache to Uncle Sam who must foot the bllL Townsend plan supporters in all of their preachments have consistently talked*of their proposition from its beauteous side.

They are still working. The government ownershln I problem is not dead. It is only eon- cealed from the eyes of most of us for the time being. Certain developments of the past sev eral months confirm the statement I have just made. Taken singly, these developments appear InsigniflcanL Collectively, they are very important I have heard it charged that govern- ment ownership advocates have a welt- laid plan to wreck private ownership In the rail industry. This charge goes further. It asserts that those who seek to destroy our profit system are pro ceeding, piecemeal, to load g burden of charges upon the railroads so that in the end it will be a physical impos sibility, for the railroad corporations to earn a profit Indeed, It is alleged that the scheme contemplates eventual burdening of the rail lines to the ex- tent where they cannot make their ex- penses. * * * Obviously, if that end were attained, bankruptcy would follow. Then, there would be no alterna- Afeans ttve but legislative Banhraptcy action placing Uie railroads in govern ment ownership. Our wartime experi ence ought to be sufficient to demon strate how the costs mount when Ihe government operates the railroads It means more taxes on every one of us who has Income whether it be large or smalL But to get back to the developments mentioned earlier. Whether there ex ists an actual plan to drive the rail roads into bankruptcy or not, the de velopments certainly are subject to that surmise. One of the items of ex pense, a new burden of cost that h proposed to be loaded on the railroad?, is the rail pension law. I have seea some statistical calculations which were convincing to me at least that the charges proposed to be levied upon ' the railroads by the law will not work out In the manner their proponents Ciniml The biil would assess each rail corporation 3% per cent of Iti PjT roU and-each worker would contribute a proportionate amount of his salary toward his pension when he retires Like the Townsend plan, no one ca» argue against the fine spirit actnatub a move to protect the retired workers But to go behind the figures at t® start one finds certain astonishiu, facts.
