Abingdon, Va, On May 24, 1917, she was united in m arriage to Baxter CLeig.g Cle ment, Jr., and two children were •born to this union, Clegg a>nd Annei Clement. Mrs. Clement was one of Mocksville’s most be loved young matrons, and was deeply devoted to her fam ily and friendSj .p early seven yeiars ago 8'he had ii sevère fall, and had never bee_n ' able. to walk sincef then.

Every thing that loving hands . and hearts could do for her was done, but the end came peaceful ly (ifl thtì last days of 1936 were ebbing. The funeral was con ducted at the home on Thursday morninig, Dec. 31; at 10:30, by Rev. E. J. Harbison, pastor of the Methodist Ohurch, of which Mrs. Clement had beeh a faith ful member since early girlhood. R. B. Sanford sang "I Would Not Live Always,” with Mrs. John Larew at the piano, after which Mrs. Larew played Han del’s "Largo.” The interment took place at Rose Cemeter.v, and thé family plot was covered with a beautiful profusion of floral designs. A number of relatives and frie'nds from out-of-town, at tended the funeral. The surviv ing family consists of the hus band, B. C. Clement, two chil dren, Clegg and Anne, four sis ters, Mrs. Helein A. Campbell, of Winston-Salem, Mrs. P. J. John son; Miss Ossie Allison and Mrs; E. C. LeGrand, .all of Mocksvilo, two brothers, W. A. Allison, of Mocksville, and Morris Allison, of Wilmington. Those acting as pallbearers were J. K. iSheek, R. S. McNeill, John LeGrand, Ser geant Mitchell, H .S. Moore, and C. R. Williams, and tihe honorary pallbearers were Dr. L. P. Mar tin, Vernon Flynt, Ancus Paine, Bill Penry, and iRogan Roseman. We e.xtend our deep sympathy to the family in their gre'at sorrow. Among the most interestinig. geographical features around here are the North and South Yadkin Rivers, which almost en circle Davie County. .Since wo cross one of these streams when going to Winston-Salem, States ville, Lexington and Salisbury, it will be of interest to know that the source is said to be in a spring near the Green Park Hotel, at Blcnvinig Rock. The riv ers and harbors act of 1927 pro vided foy a survey of a number of rivers in the United' States. Among these the survey of tho Yadkiri-Pee Dee River in North Carolina and Sauth Carolina was reported in Januaiy 1931. This iiver ilsea, us has been said, in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina, its course run ning northeast for 80 miles, and them flowing southeast for 188 miles to the Atlantic ' Ocean. This river is called the Yadkin for 202 miles, and. below the mouth of the Uiwharrle River it is known as the Pee Dee, the total lengthi being 435 miles. It has a long journey from the clear, lit tle mountain spring, on through the Piedmont,and coastal regions 10 the "deep, and dark blue ocean.” Several years ago Rev.. I Douglas L. Rights, a Moravian niinistei’ of Winston-Salem wrote ; an interesting articlc. in The ' Journal and Sentinel about hia canoe trip down tflie Yadkin River. In looking throuig'h old court records the name of che river is often written. "Atkin” or "Adkin,” the term finally becom ing the fam iliar "Yadkin,” which is not an Indian name, as .was once supposed. of tho installation ceremony, 'Dr. W. M. Lonig, expressed his ap- . predation for this notable occa- wsion, and. called on H. C. Mero- ney, one of the older members' of Mocksville Lodge, for briei remarks. Grand Master Hudson presented E.

C., T hursday, Jan u ary 7, 1937 New W ays of Gambling HORSE racing may not m uch longer be the favorite Ameri can way of gamblinR. It takes a lot of time and money to follow the ponies regularly. So a group of Cal ifornia professors have invented a new'racing sport where anyone can own a whole stc ble of racers with out it costing a cent. They have conceived the idea of racing snails! On latest reports a history pro- fessor had just won the “Kentucky Derby” with his champion thorough bred "Slimy." Pedagogues who never before sho”/ed tho slightest interast in gardening may now be seen out in their back yard on sunny afternoons, peering diligently under cabbage leaves. Who knows, any one of them might turn up another “Man O’ War!” Seven or eight members of the group regularly maintain racing stables, and several have seriously undertaken the business of breeding snails. One is said to be developing a giant slug who can outsquirm by two to one any ordinary snail. The races, usually run on tho back of. tilted ironing boards, vary in length from six inches, for juve niles, to two feet, for experienced veterans. Half-inch handicaps are sometimes given noted sluggards. Every formality and regulation of orthodox turf procedure is carried out in these races. The snails are even tested for possible doping, because a drop of alcohol noticcabiy inci'ijases a snail’s speed and vitality, and a thin illm of salad dressing in his lane has J.elpo.d many a snail to gallop home to a smashing victory! Origin of Oyster Cocktails T HE oyster cocktail is usually as sociated with expensive dining rooms and exclusive social gather ings. Like many members of the social register, it has come a long way from its humble beginnings. Records show that the oyster cocktail was invented in a shabby waterfront saloon in San Francisco about lOGG, Its concocter was a drunken gold miner who had reeled into town to spend his month’s wages. Ho appeared at tho bur and or dered a stiiT whiskey cocktail and a plate of California raw oysters. After gulping tho cocktail, this tip sy guest placed tho oysters in the same glass. The bar llies shuddered as they watched him fill it to thu brim with tomato catsup Worces tershire and popper sauco. To their further amazement, he ate the mesa with evident relish. When finished, instead of getting’ sick, he called for another plate of oysters. The bartender v/as imprssacd. Ho seized tho Idea, put on an adver tising splurge, and was soon doing a land-offlco business selling the new product for "four bits’’ a glass. Other people experimented, and found that it worked equally well with shrimps. When society took it up tho success of the oyster cock tail was assured. Lady Nicotine p KRISTOPHER COLUMBUS dis- '-J covered tobacco when he. dis covered America in 1492. He car ried back to Europe fantastic iales of how the barbaric natives "per fumed themselves by swallowing the smoke of sweet-smelling herbs.” Other early explorers reported that Indians spioked tobacco by in haling it, not through the mouth as we do now, but through the nose. Their pipes were shaped in the form of a Y, the two points of which could be inserted in the nostrils. When first brought to Europe, the tobacco plant was supposed to have miraculous healing powers, and physicians forced people to smoke it for their health. Later, as the practice grew more common, clergy and kings professed to see traces of immorality in it, and passed the most stringent laws to stamp it out. It even became a crime punishable by death to smoke tobacco in sev eral European countries. It was not until smoking became fashionable that it really gained popular following. Sir Francis Drake brought back a complete smoking set from America in 1586 and presented it to Sir Walter Raleigh. Just before he went io the scaffold for political treason, Raleigh smoked a pipe full of Vir ginia blend. This immediately Impressed the courtiers as a gallant gesture, and smoking was soon rife in the Eliza bethan court. Even Queen Eliza beth is said to have enjoyed a sur reptitious puff or two in the privacy of her boudoir.

It is character ized by tho growth of a false mem brane on a mucous or abraded skin surface and is due to the presence and proliferation of certain bacilli and tlie toxins elaborated by them. The disease has been known since antiquity, but is has been only with in coniparatively recent times that men have learned just how to com bat it with success.

Scores of proposals on this sub ject will be presented to congress— but the inside track right now is occupied by the imposing figures of Senator Bankhead of Alabama (brother of Speaker Bankhead) and Marvin Jones, Texas congressman, and chairman of the committee on agriculture. It’s high time that a broad, sound, long-term policy be adopted to give to farming the ownership- stability which has been conferred on the city dwellers through the government’s several housing agen cies. The Federal Housing Admin istration has helped around 2,000,000 Americans to buy homes on easy terms, eliminating excess foes and making one mortgage transaction out of tho loan—instead of dragging in the excess-proilt second mortgage with its fees and the ever present menace of loss of the propoorty by the family. The increase hi farms rented in stead of owned has aroused farm leaders to the Importance of the matter. There was once much free land. It was handed around by railroads, government and states so liberally that a hundred years ago nearly every man owned a piece of land. Today nearly half the farms are operated by men who rent that land. Fifty years ago a fourth of tho farms wore rented. At the present rate, v.'hich is ;Spe6cling up by the way, only about a fourth of the farms will be owned by farmers ■living on them and operating them within a few years time. Henry Wallace, Secretary of Agri culture, one of the deepest and clearest thinkers in Wasliington, is appalled at tho vision of a nation of farm - ' tenants with tlve farms owned by life Insurance companies or mortgage corporations quartered in Chicago and New York, Yet ho fears that is exactly what will occur within a few generations unless there is a rlght-about-faco in public policy so that the natural flow of events favors ownership instead of rental. As the administration sees it, one of the sorest spots in the country is the south, where “share-cropping” is a custom. This is particularly a problem in Arkansas, and the plight of those “share croppers” for some reason has dciled the best minds in Washington. Moreover, there has been considerable danger of communistic and socialist agita tion among those “share croppers.” The natural antidote being their own land, hold by them and orfering them the security which the land gives.• » * FARMERS BECOME RENTERS. The Department of Agriculture says that forty thousand farmers a lyeçir are passing from ownership to rented farms. If it were merely a matter of money, loans by a federal billion-dollar corpora tion could chock this at an ayerago loan of $4,000 per farm. That would require $100,- 000,000 annually until the movement stopped. Then, of course, there are those already in the tenant class who should bo restored to owner ship; and the estimates here set aside the sum of $50,000,000 annually for that purpose—a sum, by the way, which Henry Wallace believes far too small. At the moment there are two plans which congressional leaders believe they could incorporate into a single bill—always preferable to a series öf bills. The first would be the purchase by the government of large tracts of land, to be re sold to farmers on credit; poor land to be v'lthdrawn from use. The terms of sale would bo easy and there would be a kindly govern mental supervision over the whole area. The second plan is the out right purchase of individual farms and their resale to farm families on easy terms—easy enough to at tract purchasers and keep, families on the land. Provision would be made to protect these farms from getting into the hands of landlords who would'rent them out—and that they should never get into the hands of families who would not live on the farms. The whole- policy is to help farmers own land nnd live upon it.• • • AS EXPERTS SEE IT. Farm experts do not’^ee tlie mat ter as merely one of money and credit. Along with farm ownership goes the important idea of making agriculture worth while. The com plexities of the market in which fcu’m produce is subjected to ups- and-tlowns beyond the farmer’s con trol mtist be smoothed out by some means or other. Nn nmtter how much land a farmer owns It will not be much of a help with thirteen years of sagging, prices such as thia country experienced up to 1933. This government has done a great deal toward raising the morale of many a man on a farm which was more of a millstone on his neck than anything else. The Resettlement Ad ministration, about to become a reg ular bureau of the Department of Agriculture, has made several suc cessful experiments in rehabilitating the old fashioned individualistic and isolated farm. It has tried out the idna of a farm community plan ; it is endeavoring to find ways of bring ing farm life up to date, attractive and secure.• • • liOW OUT OF BED. , Secretary Wallace asserts that agriculture is now out of the red and on a nationally profitable basis; but he thinks we need a crop oon- irol even stronger than we had un der AAA. The thing Henry Wallace WDnt.9 to control is the great excesses of future production. The markets of the world should be opened to American farmers if these ticklish farm problems are to be solved. Right now there is dangling in the air in the State Department a reciprocal trade treaty with Great Britain. Our hope is to increase our trade- with the United Kingdom—our best customer. One half of our agricultural prod ucts except cotton went to the United Kingdom last year. To increase that proportion would be considerable of a stunt. Our general agricultural policy includes the world wide view of trade with other countries; there is a disposition on the part of the agricultural leaders here to be just a triile critical of slow progress in trade treaties with those groat in dustrial countries which could buy our farm products In huge quanti ties. And, to be frank about it, the agrarian spokesmen hero point out that treaties so far negotiated have been mainly with countries which have a lot of farm stulï to sell. How ever, the State Department has a very difflcult task in negotiating treaties anywhere. Europe is jumpy and nervous. Some of the nations are armed camps and v/ant to drag us into European embroilments through trickery in these trade triotios For instance: Wo would love to negotiate a treaty with Ital,v —we could sell those follows a lot of our stuff. But Italy v/ants to bm-row a lut of money from us to keep that terrifie war machine of thoirs in order. They would like to do business with us—but they are fran tic for money. Therefore, while wo could sell them a lot more farm products, if we did so on their terms we would bo right in the middle of their war program within a month. In other words, wo wniiW be lend ing them good United States money, which is so hard for most of us to gather In sufflcient quantities— and altogether impossible to collcct from Italy right now in repayment of the debt. Italy has owed us since the World war. * * « COLLECTING WAR DEBTS. The business of collecting the war debts, (now about eleven billions owed us by European countries,) is extremely complicated. It is by no means as simple as owing your neighbor a couple of dollars and repaying him in 25-cent installments, or even paying him off in some sort of goods he wants. If Europe started to pay us in gold coin, which is the only way international debts can be paid if money is to change hands, WQ would actually not know what to do with the gold. We have now half the world’s gold; so much that as we got more of it from Europe (sent by investors for safety) we have been issuing paper money against it. But now the paper mon ey is getting rather plentiful—and u sort of infiatiort and cheapened money is in sight, So tho govern ment is to take the incoming gold from now on and put it in a corner by itself. That takes the money value out of it, So gold in repay ment of war debts seems to be something like King Midas' gold— it has come to the point where it is à detriment instead of a help. Cash payments therefore are out. Then there is the idea of repaying us in the goods and produce of those other nations. But the minute that is proposed'labor and industry stop fighting between themselves and take a firm and violent stand against any such idea—because, naturally, this would be flooding the U. S. Л. with foreign made goods. Competi tion with our own folks. So that’s out the window, too. Then there have been such Ideas as this: Tourists planning to go to Europe would put their travel mon ey in the United Statçs Treasury which would issue an order on the other country—which would see to it that tho tourist got around on the railroads and stayed at the hotels. And there is the larger and pos sibly more practical idea of ar ranging a trade treaty with one of those defaulting countries whereby we would ship our stuff to them—and they ship none to us. Just a one way agreement. The idea is that If any country would enter such an agreement, thé Treasury would nick off a piece of the debt annually in accordance with the amount of business done with us on that basis.© WoBtern Ncwfipnper Union.

ID’. Howell’s mule', "Maud,” could no longer resist the call of her old home during the holiday aonson, so three days after Christmas she broke out of the lot and went back to the homo of her former owner, W. B. Keller of ne'ar York, S. C. "Maud” had been away from the old home place for eight years, but she still icnew where to .go for a Christmas visit, and she carried with her her friend, “Beck.” We attribute much intelligence to dogs and cats, but the average person unacquainted •with tho workings of the mind of the mule , regard'that creature ivsj "Dumb Dora,” plus. However, tliis writer has 'known for ft'^iirs that the mule is one of the moat, intelligent animals in tlie catigory of dumb brutes. We found this out years ago when a youngi mule, inis than, a year old, became , very badly ivightenea while passing the road in front of a blaeks'mich aliop. i'io «over forgot thiit blacksmith shop. And^ ten yeurs afterwards, when pa.ssin4r iho place it was always ne cessary for tlio rider or driver of that mule to use extraordinary purcautions in order to avoid a runaway on the part of che mule, who wiis so badly irightenod thoi'e when a more colt. FEEBLE-MINDED A MENACE A Chicago- news dispatch announces that a survey reveals that six hundred fe'eblC' minded persons, ordered confined in state hospitals are at liberty in the State of Hlinois because the State has no place to care for Iheui, Each of Ihese niuroiia are a potential menacc to womea otid children, and their freedom doubtless accounts for the wave of sex crimes recently committed in Chicago. The State, however, is worlcinig' at top speed on a six million dollar hospital in which to confine and caro foi' that State’s six hundred moi'ons. , A big per cent of the crime in this country is committed by persons of defective minds. And this State would not make a bad move by taking more precautionary measures to prutcut the public against the outrages so often committf'd by persons of defective men tality. We have no idea of the number of morons running at liirge in North iOarollna, -who miglit be regarded as dangerou.<v to so , .ciety, but we suspect that a survey would dis close as many as the State of Illinois reports. --------------:----------0 ------------------------- TWO WORLD CHARACTERS PASS Tho holiday season saiw the passing of two outstanding international personages. Arthur Brisbane, editor of “Today,” known as thiv world’s highest paid editor, died at his homo on Christmas morning. On the 28th of (Dec ember, General Hana von See'ckt, of Germany, passed away suddenly at his home in Berlin. Von Seeckt was a famous World War leader, and was known as tho reorganizer of the German army afto' tho World War'. He completed fifty years of military service on August 1st, last. Brisbane was possibly the best known writer in the world, and had spent a long and useful liftf in journalistic service and amassed an immense fortune by the use of his pen. ------------------------0^----------------------- A SIXTY BILLION INCOME The national income last year amounted to sixty billion dollars, according to an estimate made by Secretary Roper. That is throe- .fourths as large as it Wiia in 1929, and provtfs conclusively that busine.ss recovery is progressing rapidly. And if conditions con tinue to improve, it would be a safe guess to say that our national income for 10H7 may possibly exceed that of 1929, despite the fact WOULD ABOLISH CERTAIN WORDS United States ScnatQr, Henry Fountain Ashurst, of Arizona, say.^ that we have too many words in the English language. Ho thinks our language is Ij.ecoming unwieldy. He would abolish numerous words, among' them being, "very” and "quite.” The Arizona Senator saj's every one hundre'd words spok en by an educated American falls into four general claissi.ifications. 'Sixty of (them are Anglo-Saxon; thirty, Latin; five', Greek and tho other five, other languages. The senator may bo right in his theory that we should abolish many of the words now used. How- • ever, many scholars believe that our «lang is the result cf a failure tf find English words to express our thougihts and feelings • minutely. Anyhow, we arc coining new words continually, and although *s time passes many , other words become obsolete, yet the number of . words which one m«y now use in speiiking or writinig correct English is much larger than a century ago.. ----------------------------(j— ^----------------- BECOMING A MAJOR PROBLEM Approximately, seven hundred poraons met violent deaths' during the holiday season. Nine of these were 'North CaroUniansi and most of the deaths were caused by automo bile accidents. This does not take into ac count the hundreds who were injured more or less seriously during the same period. The death toll and damage and injury tax being levied as a result of careless handlinig of motor vehicles is becoming a real major pro blem in this country. And what are we going to do about it here in North Carolina? Wo don’t know. ¡But we' do say that if., every driver would exercise that care and caution which a prudent person, should -be expected to exetcise under light conditions, our auto mobile accidents would be reduced this year ninety-five per cent at least. -------------------------0------------------------- ANCE If BOYS PROVE IT CAN BE DONE E. M. Peterson of Yancey County, member of a '1-H Club, produced last year one* hund red twenty-two and one-half bushels of corn on an acre of land. Clyde Englin of the same cliib, produced one hundred thirteen bushels on an acre. That pr'oves that it can be done. And since seventy-five to one hun dred jbuHhels of corn can be prod(uced on an .'atfre of land, 'why is it that sb many farmers cultivate such large acreage. If a farmer wants to produce five hundred bushel», of corn, why not produc.e it on five acres ratliur than cultivate thirty to got the' auiua production. Some day w« shall see our farm ers doing that very thing. --------—---------0——----------------- UNLUCKY FOR AVIATION ' The' holiday season seem,« to have brought bad hide to aviation. Three big passenger .planes crashed during the holidays. Tho last one caused' the death of. twelve persons, all passengers and members of the crew having- gone to their death when the big bi-motor liner crashed into a mountain near Burbank, . Calif., last week. Two of the wrecked planes were found, but the other has not yet been located. . -------------------------0-------------^----------- I P R E S S C O M M E N T PRACTICAL DEMONSTRATION An editor and a merchant were discussing tho virtue ol billboard advertising. The merchant contended that more people read the billboard than the- newspaper. After neither man would give in, the men parted. The пе.й week the merchant came tearing doлvn the street to the news'paper office want ing to know Avhy the obituary of his wife’s mother was not in tho paper, especially after he had seen that a. copy was taken to the newspaper office. “Well,” said the editor, "I knov; you v.’ant- ed the obituary read by the people, so I took it out and nailed it up on your billboard.” —Sedan (Kan.) Advertiser-Journal. -------------------------О ------------------------- ADVERTISE CONSISTENTLY Consistent advertising is the biggest factor in successful advertising, according to Frank V. Birch, executive vice president of Klau- Van Pietersom-Dulnop Associates, Inc., Mil waukee advertising agency. Speaking before the Wisconsin .Building and Loan league, Mr. Birch said, "You cannot e.xpect to advertise in flush times and live on the memory of it when you are hard up. You can’t expect to advertise when you are in troiuble 'Or about to be in ti'ouible—and expect to get anywhere in that direction. Advertising is a day by day and hour by hour business.” He cautioned against spasmodic advertis ing, saying, "Don’t throw your money away that way.

But once asleep I lay like a log for perhaps an hour. After ward I remembered that early in tho morning, just after dawn, I awoke with a soaring thirst. Grad ually, I pulled myself up out of bed and staggered to the bathroom. On my way back to bed I paused to look out the window. A gray ish fog covered the landscape. »Trees bluired shadowy through it —like folbge in a faded photo- ' graphic Й1ш. Yet motion caught my dead eyes. Down below, emerg ing from the Spinney, I saw— But I must not anticipate here; for what I saw made but 0 fleeting impresiiion on шу sleep-clogged consciousness. Still bemused, I fell into bed and l^to another deep slumber. I for got cntir«ly what I saw. It was Sylvia's little voice which next awakened mo. "Come, get in bed with me, my pot!” I invited. She snuggled down close beside me, putting Dorinda Belle between us on the pillow. “Did yon have a nice time v.’ith Aunt TVTattio?" 1 asked. "Oh yes, Axint Mary. Aunt Mat- tio put a little pitcher of cream in front of my plate—just for me.” "What timfl did Aunt Mattie and Uncle Peter get liome Ic.st night?” “I don’t know. Caddie put me and Dorinda Belle to bed before they came.” "And so you did not see Aunt Mattie and Uncle Peter until this moring?” "No. Tiiey came into my room and they hugged me and kissed me. Oil—I almost forgot. Aunt Mattie told me to tell you that she wanted to come over to see you after breakfast—as soon as possi ble.” I readied out and touched the bell. “Sylvia,” I said, putting my arm about her and drawing her closer, "do you remember how you danced with Doctor Ace at the masquerade?” Sparkles gathered in Sylvia’s eyes. “Oh yes, 1 remember) He couldn’t gueoa wlio I was. He tried and he tried and lie tried, but he couldn’t." “Doctor Ace has gone away,” I fiaid to her. “He’s gone away for a long, long time. But I want you to remember, as long as you live, how he lookfid and iiow kind he has always been to you. Promise me you won’t forget him.” "Oh, I’ll never forget Doctor Ace,” Sylvia vowed easily enough. She did not nsk me wliere Ace had {gone. Sarah came in with my trny. “Now run downstairs to the piaz- *a,” I bade Sylvia. “And don’t leav» it without asking mo,” Sarah did not seem her.4elf. Tho deep umber of her flesh still showed a tallowy quality. “I hope you feel better this morn- lung, Mrs. Avery,” she said. "I feel rested, Sarah, but you don’t seem so very spry.” "I feel that we’rof all under sus picion!” Sarah commentfid somber ly. "Everybody on this Head—we women as well as the men.” I made myself smile. “We don’t have to worry, Sarah,” I reassured her. "Nobody in this household has to worry. Doctor Geary says that Doctor Blaikle was murdered somewhere about midnight—prob ably before. We all have alibis. And then, Sarah, it seems to me very unlikely that a woman could have committed this crime. How could a woman have stabbed p man so tall and big as Ace Blai- kie?”“A woman who’s big enough— and mad enough, Mrs, Avery—can do anything.”"Will you call Mrs. Stow at once, Sarah,” I asked, “and tell her that I'm dressing now and to come over here as soon as she wants." “Yes, Mrs. Avery.” “I suppose everybody’s been on the telephone.” “Everybody. Every Boston pa per’s tried to get you, but I said you were still sleeping.” “That’s rigiit, Sarah, Don’t let anybody get to me today—except long distance of coiu:se.” “There’s a stack of telegrams, Mrs. Avery.” “I’ll look at them later." I bathed and dressed swiftly, went downstairs. Almo3t instantly Mattie Stow came into the living-room from the hall. We kissed, then stood oil and stared appraisingly at each other. “You look as washed-out as I do, Mary!” Mattie commented. “If I look as I feel,” I said, "You look all of that, Mary. It’s tho most horrible experience of my lifetime. Sometimes 1 feel as though I’d never get over it!” “Horrible!” I could only—help lessly—echo, “What timo did you go home, Mary? I can remember so little, clearly.” I described our movements— Sylvia’s and mine—in detail. "Peter and I dressed at the Bray house,” Mattie said. “We left our placo at about half-past eight and got hack at about ten. Naturally, we never left the house again. No body left the house but—” She stopped suddenly. It was her own thought, dogging her words, that littd caught her up, “Of course Aco left before the unmasking because we never saw him again,” Mattie glided swiftly on. "Yes, I saw him go." “It puts an end to our masquer ades,” Mattie ended lifelessly, “I could never givo another <ine.” The telephone buzzed. Instinctive ly I arose. But before I could get the extension on the piazza, I heard Sarah at the hall telephone. I took up tho receiver. Patrick O’Brien’s voice said, "This is tho cliief of police speaking. Can I talk with Mrs, Avery?” "This is Mary, Patrick,” I broke in. "Oh, how are you this morning, Mary?” Patrick asked. "Well, I slept—after a while," 1 answered. "It was a tough break, Mary— happening on your place! I called up to ask if I could come to see you for a few minutes. I’m at Joe Geary’s.” “I know you’ll have to be here all the time, Patrick. Don’t even bother to telephone. Cpme when ever you must. If I'm not at home, Sarah will take caire of you. Mat tie is here,” “I’m glad of that. I want to see Iier too,” Mattie and I continued to tra verse the vicious circle of our memories of the masquerade until -| Patrick arrived. “I’ve put in quite a night,” he said. "Checking up on a crowd of over a hundred people, all of them in maslcs, is no small chore. And I couldn’t get at Mattie until they came home from their drive. But fortunately I had a good detail on Second Head.” "Peter and I were so tired уе.ч- terday,” Mattie explained to me, "that wo wanted to get away from everything—even from tho serv ants. Peter wouldn't eat at a ho tel; he said if lie heard another strain of jazz— So I put up a bas ket supper and we picnicked by the roadside. Wo drove about un til long after dark, I think it was about ten before we got home.” “Who told you?” I asked. "The maids! Peter called up Pat rick at once and we got together immediately,” "Hov,' did you check up, Pat rick?” I asked, “Well, first with Mattie’s list, Th»n there were six coppers on duty here tliat niglit. I had told tliem to keep a sharp look-out. I was afraid somebody might try to crash the party. Between them I got a pretty definite idea of who came and when they left. First of all though, last niglit,, I went from house to house on the' Head and sewed up everybody here. That was easy. Everybody but the ji'air- weather girls went to the masquer ade and they didn’t leave their house. Flora couldn’t, of course, and Margaret wouldn’t. But as a matter of routine, I had to get a statement from all of tliem—even Margaret Fairweather. Tlieir ali- bis look waterproof. Doctor Mar- den says that ha left fairly early —about one—because he v/as tired. He went home and went to bed. His granddaughter, Miss Prentiss, says she looked into his room when she got Iiome at da\vn and he was asleep. Tho Geary-Bray crowd went home together, Tho Eamses —Oh by the way, that reminds me, Mary, I haven't taken your story yet. I must do tiiat now,” “Did you go to every house on my list, Patrick?” Mattie ques tioned, rising."Every one,” Patrick answered tersely, “I detailed a man to sit down at the telephone and call them up. Ho told them that I’d .get there sometime during the night. It was four o’clock in the morning when 1 checked off the last name!" "You ought to look more tired than you do,” Mattie commented. “Oh I take a swim before break fast,’'“Pamcr^arff-lnlitg-o/thimd- way, "I’m always in pretty good condition,” "That’s a good thing!” comment ed Mattie. "You’re in for a long stretch of hard work, Patrick, un- less tills thing is cleared up pretty soon.” "You’re telling me!” Patrick an swered with a wry smile. "Have you anything to go on yet?" Mattie went on. "Listen, you girls,” Patrick de clared, “I’ll fell you what I've got because we three have been friends ever since 1 can remember. And at present it’s pretty nearlv noth ing.” “Weren’t there any finger prints?” I asked. "No. Tho state finger-print export has looked everytlilng over. Ho says that the murderer must have used a handkerchief or gloves when he stabbed Ace and when he straightened him out." “But could ho have stabbed him without Aco realizing ho was going to do it?” Mattie demanded. “Because —whoever he was—^Ace thought he was a friend.” Mattie sighed. -She came over and kissed me, “Call on me any time, old thing!" “First of all, Mary,” Patrick be gan brisldy, when W'o were alone, "tell me what you did tho night of the masquerade. Gee, I’ve loft my pencil at the P.S.” He turned to my desk; took up my fountain pen; wrote a few words; dropped it in favor of a pencil, I gave him a complete and cir cumstantial account of my move ments from the time 1 dressed un til I returned to tho house with Sarah at two, “I think I have в watertight alibi, Patrick,” I conclud ed a little drearily, "because I scarcely loft tho corner where I sat tho v/holo evening. Yes, I even ate my supper there. I think any number of people can testify to that.” "Well, Mary,” Patrick assured me, "my Irish inteHigence seems lo tell iVu? that you didn’t kill Ace, Now will you ask the maids to come in?” I rang the boll. Sarah appeared. I explained, "Mr. О Bnen wants to ask you and Bes sie a few questions.” Sarah and Bessie appeared in the doorway, Bessie looked worse than Sarah. Sleeplessness had Ifonecl the dimples out of her face; it had set into an ashen mask, Patrick was extremely gentle. Now, girls,” he bagan, "I’ve got to ask you a few questions, I don t want you to get frightened. There S no suspicion of you what ever, But of course, to keep tho recora straight I have to know ex actly what you did the night of the masquerade,” Sarah epoke first. “Of course we know that, Mr. O’Brien,” she de- clared, wltli a catch in her volco. We've e-xpected that you’d ques tion us and we’re all ready." Patrick took Bessie’s story first straightforward.

Regeneration is the act of God wliereby the divine nature is imparted to the believing sinner and he becomes the child of God, He who has not entered by this way has not entered at all. Ho is still dead in trespasses and sins, with out God and without hopa (Eph. 2:1, 12).Men are seeking to enter the household of God by almost any other means—culture, reform, char acter building—and are neglecting God’s way. This lesson should tliure- fore be studied and taught with earnest prayer that this foundation truth may lay hold upon tho hearts of tlie hearers of the Word. Let no one who is not born again attempt to tcach it to others, lest tho blind attempt to lead the blind, and both fall into the ditch (Luke 6:30). The coming of Nicodemus to our Lord took place at the time when he was in Jerusalem for tho Pass- over, Jesus had chosen six of his disciples, had boon at Cana of Gal ileo, where he performed his first miracle, and had made a brief visit to Capernaum, after which he came to Jerusalem for the feast. In high and holy indignation ho had driven the money changers out of the tem ple, The Pharisees who looked for tlio coming of the Messiah as a secular coiiqueror wondered at this new spiritual leader. It was prob ably as much on their bcliulf as his own that Nicodemus came to in quire of Jesus. In answering his questions Jesus reveals tho neces sity, tho nature, and tho method of regeneration—in other words, tho Why, What, and How of tho Now Eirth, I. Why? (vv, 1-7,) Jesus was not unduly impressed by the dignity and high station of his visitor, nor by tho visitor's cour teous acknowledgment of ,his own position as a great teacher. With decisive boldness Jesus declares tliat this man, a culturcd and dis tinguished ruler of tho Jews, must be born again, if ho is to see the Idngdom of God, God is no respecter of persons. This “doctor of divinity” must bo born again, just as was the illiterato fishqrman, D. L. Moody once said that ho was thankful it was lo such n man as Nicodemus that Jesus presented the necessity of the new birth—or men would have said tliat only tho down-and-outer needed to ba saved. I'wo reasons are given by our Lord for tho "must" of verso 7: (1) The Kingdom of God is a spir itual kingdom, and cannot be en tered by way of our human nature; and (2) “That which is born of the flesh is flesh” and is radically and essentially bad. To learn why the flosh is bad read'Jeremiah 13:23, and Galatians 5:10-21. II. What? (v-v. 8-13), The now birth is a divine mys tery, not fathomable by iiuman reason. Those who insist ttiat all spiritual truth bo put through the little norm of their intelligence will never understand it or receive its blessing. The striking illustration of the life-giving and energizing wind used by our Lord is most il luminating. Wind is unseen, but the results of its movement arc evi dent. III. How? (vv. 14-17.) Just as there was healing and life In a look at the uplifted serpent (Num. 21:0), so thero is life for a look at the Crucified One, Faith ro- oeiv'es God’s perfect provision for sin. Verso 19 may well bo regarded as the greatest sentence in the greatest Book in the world. It presents the whole plan of salva tion—its source, its ground, its re cipients, its condition, and its result. This glorious salvation is for all men — “wiiosoever” — but some rejcot it. Notice that God does not condemn them. Their own evil works and desires condemn them (vv, 17-20). God in his grace is ready and willing to save, but men love "darkness rather than light”- for their works are evil. *' GoiVs Mercy O God, the whole world is as a drop of morning dew. But Thou hast mercy upon all , , . i or Thou lov- Bst all things that are, and abhor- BSt nothing that Thou hast made . , . But Thou sparest all, for they lire Thine, O Lord, Thou lover of souls.

It's Harder fo Lose Pounds Than It Is to Gain More of Them Overweight Generally Has But One Cause arid That Is Overeating. "The slim, the irritable, the hungry woman takes on the pro portion of one of our minor men aces," says Fannie Hurst in her amusing little book, “No Food With My Meals.” Miss Hurst is writing frankly from her owr ex perience in attempting successful ly to lose pounds. She admits herself that although she under- ■■tnnlr hpr rndnntinn program under the direction of thF doctor, sh'e waa not content with the com paratively slow results and cut still further tho low calorie diet which the physician gave her. It is one of the mysteries of life that it is much harder to lose added pounds than it is to gain them. The bathroom scales, which are now so general a part of equipment, enable us to keep a check on weight. It is not so easy for tiiose extra pounds which creep upon us unaware as it was once upon a time, A few days of dieting in time will save the slender figure. Remember, liow- evet’, that, in general, the addi tion of a few extra pounds with the years is an asset. They are usually needed to balance those lines which the years write. Unless there is some glandular deficiency, overweight has but one cause, namely, overeating. Tho avoidance of more calorics than are needed for use by tho body for its own processes and for the activity of our lives may usually be a simple matter if there are no between meal sweets and no over-indulgence in bread, butter, other fats and rich desserts with meals. Not complete avoidance! It is only the second helpings that are usually responsible for undue weight gain. Looking out for that pound in time will actually save nine. Just one word of warning. however, don’t advertise publicly your diet program.

K err, of the sam e address. Evelyn says she has never had an y adventures—not yet, j PJiyway, If she had, she’d be glad to tell us about them . Her dad, on tho other hand, has had one of those rip-roaring ex periences that make your hair stand on end for a week afterward, but somehow' or other ho never gets around to writing us about it. So Evelyn is writing that story up for him. All right, dad. That makes yon n Distinguished Adventurer, and a full fledged member of the club. A lot of good yarns begin with a man in the driver’s seat of an automobile, This is one of them. In 1918, Evelyn’s dad, George Kerr, was working as a truck driver for a company in Medford, and one trip he made in his truck he’U iievcr I forget in all his life. George’s Truck Had a H eavy Load. It was a warm day in September, George was driving a five-ton truck loaded with corrugated paper boxes. There’s one thing that ought lo be explained here—that is, that those boxes were heavy. A truck load of paper boxes doesn't sound like much weight, but these boxes were folded flat and piled high on George's gas buggy. It was a flve-ton truck, but that load of boxes weighed every ounce of six tons. That load of boxes was to go to Salemi and, although George had been in the nearby town of Lynn a good many times, he had never driven to Salem, ■ George got to Lynn in good time, and drove right on. To got to I Salem, he had to cross the marshes that Ue between the two towns— had to cross them over the floating bridge. ' “I don’t know whether that floating bridge is still there, or whether it has been replaced by a more modern—and more solid—structure. “That bridge was bultt of 137 layers of board placed on the top of tho swamp, and those boards kept sinking so that they had to be reinforced twice a week,” Evelyn says. It was said around those parts that nobody had ever been able to find a bottom to those marshes. But that’s something George Kerr didn’t know about. It he liud, he might have traveled from Lynn to Salem by an entirely diirerent route. Another thing George didn’t know much about was that floating I bridge, Tho Sign That lie Didn't, See. There was a sign at tho entrance to it that said: “Nothing over 6,000 pounds allowed on this bridge. Anyone driving a vehicle weighing over G,000 pounds proceed at their own risk.” But George didn’t see that aigr. as he rolled onto tho bridge approach. So,'with a load alone that weighed 6,000 pounds, and a truck that weighed almost as much again, he started across. It was George’s helper who first noticed that things wore going wrong. The truck was halfway across—IN THE DEAD MIDDLE OF THE BRIDGE—when suddenly he cried out: “For Pete’s sake, George, look. Tho bridge is sinldng!” GEORGE DID LOOK—AND HIS SCALP BEGAN TO CREEP AND ' ■R'UNNy, CHl.ULvr TWINGES BEGAN RUNNING UP AND DOWN HIS . BACK. THE BRIDGE BENEATH THEM WAS OUT OP SIGHT UNDER MUDDY SWAMP WATER. AND THE WATER ITSELF WAS UP OVER THE RIMS OF THE TRUCK’S BIG WHEELS, The next thing George heard was the helper’s voice again “Come on, George, We’ll have to jump for itl” That’s tho last George saw of his helper for a while. Ho was over tho side of the truck like a monkey, and George was left alone on the seat. From somewhere behind, he could hear his helper’s voice calling to him—telling him to get off that truck before it was too late. But George didn’t get off. That truck and the load it was carrying had been entrusted to his care. It was his responsibility. He’d heard about those marshes—heard people say that anything that went down in them never came up again. But that applied to the truck as well as himself, didn’t it? Hard Decision for Him to M ake. Was he going to abandon that truck- -the property of the people who handed him his pay check every week—while there was still a chance of getting it across? On the other hand, George had a wife and five small kids at home.He owed a duly to them, too, didn't he? What would happen to them if he went down in that swamp and I never came up again? It was a tough decision fo make, but George made it. He threw his truck into low gear, Ccd it the gas gently, and started crawling along toward the other side. It seemed as though he’d never make it. The bridge sagged beneath the weight of the heavy load. The truck was moving at a snail’s pace, but he didn’t dare make I it go any faster, Nuthinji lu uu but sit tight, hold his breath, and pray that everything would be all right. The water rose higher and higher. It was abnost up,to the hub caps, Wliat if it got into the engine and stalled the motor? George didn’t want to think about that. t l n c l a S o jjA s Today and Tomorrow Tomorrow is not yours, and it is yet uncertain whether it ever will be.

You see, my father was a politician, and I learned about log- folling from him. Some joke . . . After a quint babyhood in Buffalo, N. Y., I was sent to school for a "more mature outlook on life," as my parents once expressed it. I got along fine with all my teachers except one. She frequently kept me after school for whittling toothpicks in class, in a small way i was starting the "hand_ to mouth" existence of a lumber king, ' Then I was admitted to the Uni versity of Rochester. After playing three years as varsity guard my college daze suddenly ended, and I found'myself back in Buffalo look ing for a job. I had my l)cart set on a jiusitiuii with a lumber firm, and finally succeeded in landing work as a lathe-cutter. That was better than whittling toothpicks. At least, I was working up to ‘bigger Stuff. One day I woke up in a broker’s office. I don't know how it happened, but pretty soon I was a vice-president. I stayed in business only long enough to remember the Debacle of 1929. I turned to radio scrip t writing as a possibility.

Anyone who is lucky enouigh to own an old woven woolen ooun- i terpane or coverlet, will appre>- ' ciate the poem quoted above. The word "counterpane” comcis from “counterpoint,” as these cover- ! lets were first woven in squares. In old wills it appears that wov en counterpanes were i-ated as important bequests, along ' with the corner cupboards and the ‘chists.” One' old dioc.nment speaks of one of these coverlets as a “counting-pin.” When you think of the time spent in weav ing these bbd coverings, it can be seen why they were so valua ble, aside ii'om their warmth. The names of counterpanes, as well as quilts, arouse our cur iosity, as we wonder why they were named “So-and So.” I'he ai‘t of weaving coverlets has 'been revived, and in some .".ections ; it- hasi never died out. Tiie beauti ful weaving ot Mrs, Finley Mast's loom, at Valle Crucis, N. C., found its way to the W'hite House, dui’ing President 'Wilson’s admin istration, we believe. If you have a woven woolen counter pane you are fortunate, and we hope you know the name of its pattern. Our.s looks like a pat tern called “Governor’s Garden,” but is not exactly the same de sign as the picture. S e r v i c e C l u b M e m b e r s V o t e T o L i v e O n F a r m I n N . C .

SANTA MONICA, CALIF.— Because their dictators are piling up arm am enls and build ing up arm ies at a rate un precedented, the German peo ple must, it appears, go on ra tions, cutting down their daily consumption of breadstuifs and fats, with the prospect of still more stringent restrictions. But their overlords—a reasonably well-nourished lot, to judge by their photographs —keep right on preaching that such compul sory undernourish ment is all for the greater glory oi the .vaterland.

But it can exist only wliere there is light, and only God gives light.It is therefore a blessed and sig nificant fact that Jesus was de clared to bo the life ot men. He also says of himself thnt he is the “light of the world” (John 0:5); "t*ie bread of life” (John 6:35). In our lesson today we see Him as the one who gives "living water” (v. 10).Tho Incident at Jacob’s well In Sychar took place when Jesus, leaving Jerusalem because ot in creasing hindrance to his_ woric, goos up to Galilee. Unlike his Jew ish brethren, who detoured around the land of the hated "half-broed” Samaritans, ho "must needs go through Samaria,” for there was a Bin-sick soul that needed him. Space will not permit a full con sideration of all tho beauty and tho depth ot spiritual truth found in this story. I. A Sinner TaclfuUy Approached (vv. 7-lD).Every Christian is by his very calling a soul-winnor. We dare not delegate this responsibility to tho pastor or missionary. As soul-win- r.ers wo are vitally interested in our Lord’s approach to this woman who was far from God, apparently hopelessly involved in sinlul associ- titioii.s, a citizen of' a hostilo nation- and an adherent o£ another reli gious faith.By asking a favor of hor he tact fully placed himself (as does any petitioner) for tho moment, on hei own plane. Ho was not a distant, lournod religious leader deigning to cast a bit of religious philosophy to her. Ho wn.q a tlrod, thirsty man asking for n drink of wator. But he was morel He was the gracious Son of God, ready to glvo tho water ol life. II. A Moral Problem Faccd (w . 10-ia).One moy speak knowingly of the promises of God’s Word, and may understand tho "way of salvation,” but one will never find peace and joy until there is a frank and open facing ol sin in the life. Let us make no .mistake at this point, for the moral law of God is the same now as it was on that lar-oii day when Jesus brought tho woma.i ol Samaria face to faco with hei own sin. III. A Ihcologioal Problem Solved (vv. 10.24). Possibly in an effort to evade her moral problem by tlieological dis cussion (a common practice in our day, tool), and partly because of her ignorance of true worship, she asks a question about a controver sial matter iclating to outward cer emony. Is it not a singular thing how men who know nothing ol spir itual life delight in the propagation ond defense of organizations, and in the conduct of outward religious ex ercises?True worship is revealed (v. 23) as being (1) “In spirit." We do not oast aside nil external helps to worship, but real worship goes through and beyond both place and symbol to real soul-communion with God (2) "In truth." Sham, super stition, hypocrisy, have no place in true worship. We can worship in truth only when we really know the truth. MacLaren rightly said, "The God to whom men attain by any other path than his historical revelation ol himself is a dim, color less abstraction, a peradventure, an object of fear or hope, as may be, but not of knowledgG,” Truly spoko Jesus — "We know what we wor ship” (V. 22). IV. Tha Messiah Declared (w , 25, 20;. Jesus honors this poor fallen woman by making to her his first declnration ot himselE as the Mes siah, He is the high and exalted one, but he is at the same time the friend of elnncrs. To the learned ruler of the Jews, Nicodemus, he spoke ol the new birth. To tho poor woman ol Samaria he declares his Messiahship.

There is a trail which leads from the present European mess right straight back to the days when Ger many asked for an armistice. What ever happened then—in the Ver sailles treaty—in the various subse quent revolutions—in the new so cialist and fascist forms of govern ment — now threatens democracy with a closer danger, with a strong' er feeling, and with greater armies equipped with much more destruc tion than ever before Icnown. Woodrow Wilson in 1915 spoke vaguely ot militaristic dictators who might arise after the European war. Today there is nothing vague about it. We have dictatorship at the worst kind, utilizing the entire force and vigor of various nations for militaristic and material pur poses trampling on the ideas of democracy and ruthlessly destroy ing the idea ol “peaco on .earth, goodwill to men,” Everyone In this congress under stands it. Many of the elder states men were here with V/ilson; they all intend to work to keep us out of the European moss—but there are so many strong and varying views that there is going to be a lively scrap over the details. However, the senate’s committee on foreign af fairs is determined on peace—even if they have to fight for it. President Roosevelt has sounded his keynote more than once. Tho latest outline of his ideas, ideals and policies was his pronouncement in Buenos .A,ircs. Diplomats, wlio have never liked direct dealings, arc finding fault with the Presi dent’s trip to South America; but the trip, tho speech and the gen eral result is a part of the Presi dent’s world-wide plan, for a build up of democratic peoples versus tlio military and socifdist dictator ships now having their hey-day in Europe.• • • NEUTRAL BY LAW Tho United States is now neutral by law, a law which came out of senatorial investigations into tho so- called munitions trust. This legal neutrality gives the State Depart ment power to prohibit the ship ment of war munitions to warring countries.' However, a question of just what articles constitute “munitions of war” is about to give everyone a nightmare. It is easy to find na tion-wide support to prohibition of the shipment of arms, ammunition, tanks, guns, bullets, shells, mili tary arlplanes, etc. Nobody suiler.q but tho so-called munitions trust, composed of long suffering gentle men quite accustomed to abuse, But suppose that American neutrality depended also on the embargo on cotton, corn, wheat, copper, oil and other great basic products! In the past whenever there vyas an at tempt to scop shipment of these necessities in wartime, with prices soaring and markets booming, the people iiiosl opposed to strict neu trality have been the entire popula tion of those sections producing and living on these . basic articles. It would be difficult to stop the export of cotton, for instance, if Europe demanded it as a munition of war— with the price shooting skyward— and India and Egypt presumably quite ready to supply the demand if we did not. Interminable rows tore the Wil son administration apart over just such questions. Washington was flooded with high-priced propagan dists and war-minded diplomats. The ordinary man on the street was deprived of a fair and clear view of this country's position with respect to the European war, because there was almost no chance to keep the discussions clear of prejudice and selfish interest. In the midst of this turmoil the Wilson political campaign managers campaigned for his re-election on the slogan “He Kept Us Out of War”—and imme diately subsequent to his re-elec tion the country started toward war without hindrance. Twenty years later finds Presi dent Wilson’s assistant secretary of the navy, who had much to do with the naval end of the war, in the White House striving to beat oft another rising tide of war and to take up the cudgels for democracy versus dictatorship. Roosgvelt is surrounded by well meaning law- mcliors and publicists who take v&' rious moans for preventing exactly v/hat happened in 1017 when this country v/as dragged into war by tho trend of tragic events. Consequently, with our strict neu- tr«Ut]r by law coming to an end Moy 1, 1937, lav/makers on Capitol Hill have determined each in his own way, to keep us out of another war by preventing one or all of the various pre-war events of 1914- 1917. Some wish to prevent Amer icans from traveling in any war zone or on foreign ships in war some want to stop all comrherco with any warring foreign nation, no matter what the article of com merce moy bo. The great division among sena tors is on the question of giving tho President some discretion in tlie matter of an embargo. The Presi dent and tho Stoto Department want some elasticity but there is a noisy section of the senate which wants what Senator Vandenberg of Mich igan calls a “war, quarantine,” That is a strict law stopping aU loans, credits and munitions to any bel ligerent. Sneator Vandenberg op poses leaving neutrality decisions to the President—this President or any other. He argues that to put such a responsibility on one man eventually inevitably leads to an un-neutral interpretation, by any belligerent nation which happens to be ofifended by the decision. Tho nation which needs the munitions, loans or credits from this coun try and which does not got what it wants, always points to the United ed States as friendly to the other side. If country A is at war with country B, and country A needs American wheat. . . then country A is starved when the Unit ed States refuses to ship wheat to either country. Country В docs not need wheat.. . so to it the United States’ embargo makes no difTer- ence. Tho propagandists of coun try A then come over here and whip up a rnovement to bo patriotic and ship wheat to that sterling friend of democracy, country A. The wheat growers would be the first to fall for that type of propaganda. Senator Vandenberg thhiks that If we have an ironclad law passed new, there will be no chance later on for propagahdi&ts to try to in fluence a President who might have some discretion in the matter. It sounds fine—but it is not prac ticable, International relations, es pecially in time' of conflagration, should not be so rigid as all that. Our determination to keep out of war should be rigid, but we our selves should have some elasticity and ability to move around in the area aifectod. A fire engine com pany wants .4 rigid fire plug from which water will flow with regular ity, but the engine company, the flremen and tho apparatus should be extremely mobile. That will be the administration’s viewpoint.• » • INTERESTINO IDEA A good Democrat with an inter esting idea is Louis Ludlow, con gressman from Indianapolis, Indi ana, who has considerable support for his proposed constitutional amendment giving the people a chance to vote for or against go ing to war. That is, of course, an aggressive war. In the case of an invasion there should be no strings on the President or the government generally, Mr, Ludlow’s proposal relates to tho constitutional provi sion that congress alone can declare a state o£ war existing. He pro poses that this be modified by a constitutional amendment provid ing that even after congress de clares a war, such declaration would not be valid until confirmed by public referendum. We have no federal machinery at present for a nation-wide plebis cite. Each state would iiave to ar range its own referendum; its own balloting. In states where there was a governor or a legislature not interested in the subject of war it could happen that tho matter would go by default. Sufllcient of such “defaults” would result in no war.• • * G. O. P. IN SENATE Favorite sport around the senate is to figure out when the G, O, P. can count on a majority in that body which, for tho Seventy-fifth congress, has 17 Ropublicans of a dozen varying viewpoints. Demo crats appear to believe it will be 10 years, or 1953 before the Repub- leans can count on a majority, and then anything can have happened, Here’s the way they figure: at the next election, 1939, thirty-two sena tors come up for re-election, and of the^e twenty-seven are sure-fire Democrats, nearly all from south ern Democratic states. Electing the five Republicans doesn’t add a thtog to the present seventeen. Then in 1941, the year of the presiden tial election, the thirty-two senators up for re-election include twenty- four sure-fire Democrats divided be tween half a dozen southern states and the Democratic area of the West. This time stalwart conserva tive Democrats like Byrd of Vir ginia will have severe tests. These are the conservative Democrats who may help break up existing party lines in the 1941 presidential election. A New Deal Democrat of great importance to the party that year is Guffey of Pennsylvania, who built the successful Democratic ma chine in the old Republican Keystone State. What is ahead of him? It is a puzzle; and the next four years is a fascinating and important era. Go forward to 1943. Twenty-fo(w Democrats and six Ropublicans again ask for re-election. The per centage is again in tho southern and western area, now New Deal strongholds . . . If the Republicans win every seat they go after they could (mathematically) gain a ma jority in six years, but the closeat actual political possibilities oiler them is a majority in sixteen yea it —so the Democrats say.С Weitara Nowipaptr UoloiC G l a m o r o u s I s t h e N e w L i n g e r i e By CHERIE NICHOLAS C'OR the fair sex nothing so strikes *■ the right noto as beautiful lin gerie. Seeing lovely “undies,” and coveting, is akin to that feeling one has in a garden of flowers, to add another and yet another to one’a bouquet plucked irom among na ture’s loveliest. Just so does the eternal feminine in us keep longing for ono more ond one more of the delectably colorful lace - trimmed silken nighties, slips, pantio sets, negligees, cunning bed-jackets and others such as designers are this season placing before the enrap tured eyes of beauty-seeking wom ankind. Even so, tho esthetic viewpoint la but half tho story, for thera is a practical side to the question that those skilled in the art o{ dress keep ever in mind, namely, a cos tume to bo fashion-correct and of comely appearance must build from the foundation up. Wherefore, it is as important to have a wardrobe of lingerie as of outer apparel. Which la why creators of modtrn lingerie are devoting so much of time and talent, thought and study to tho fashioning of under garments that because of their perfection of lines ond subtle fit, act as “first-aid” toward tho charm and stylo-right- noss of one’s costume. Tho nightgowns this season are nothing if not glamorous. Rich fab rics and colors, beautiful flnishes and elaborate lace trimmings mark them with distinction. Mostly they are satin, but you do see some of crepe and silk ninon and georgette,' Slips, too, are reflecting the in terest in tho daintier garments and gone are tho utterly tailored eilects. They are carefully fitted of courses and even when they are not elaborately lace-trimmed as so many aro, they stiU have details of lace and net trimmings, of tiny edgings of vài lace to appeal to the well-groomed lady. There are all manner of negli gees and hostess gowns. The satin ones, lavish with lace, aro easily the most popular this season. Bed jackets of all shapes and typos are more fascinating than over. Somo aro m ade in cape design and tie loosely in front. The model shown in tho center inset is of allover lace with wide satin border front. In a way this charming little cape- bed-jaokot might bo classed with the so called Ungerlo accessories which Paris designers are advo cating this season. Such, for Iti- stance, is tho “bib” to bo worn over night dresses. It is a grand gift item for a convalescent or in valid, It's a frilly lace front piece to slip on at a moment’s notic* over the "nightie.” Tho ono pic tured in the upper inset is dono in circular ruffles ot laco with ribbon ties about the throat. It is said that it is becoming quite a fad to make your own lingerie ao- cessorie.<<. Describing the lovely gowns pic tured, tho ono to the loft is of shell- pink satin with deep appllqued yoke of Alencon lace in the now light ecru shade which is so good this season. The lovely skirt edge, with its lace slit up tho front, features the new trend toward flno details. Soft yellow is used for the in teresting nightdress on tho seated flgure with its diagonal neckline and one-sido shoulder strap. The lace motifs applied are carried out also in the matching slip and panties which form the perfect ensemble.® Weitern Newapaper Union. CHANTILLY DRESS Dr OllKKIU NIOnOLAS Nothing Is so flattering, so “new” lor dressing up in the afternoon and fcoing on for the evening date as the simple, painstakingly tailored dress of black Chantilly. This dress has the street-length skirt which is so much more popular this year than tho cocktail dresses of other seasons. It is especially youthful in design, but is es good for the young matron as lor the college girl. Note the little flared pocketfi which add to the tailored effect. SIL K S FO R SPRIN G ST R E SS H IG H CO LO R Edward Molyneux, style author ity, predicts a riot of color for spring. In monotones as in prints, color is tho watchword. | A wide range of blue tones is beinff accented in spring silks. Misty blut's and strong purple- blues are now, and the middle tones of blue also register. Purple is new ly accented. The cai>ucine range is an impor tant one,' highlighting glowing yel low - orange and pumpkin tones. Henna and horsechestnut rank high, with the former striking a new note for evening, A hint of ashcs-of-rosea overlays the copper range as it is interpreted for resort and spring 1937. Brownish gold is another im portant tone to watch. Beige and other neutral tones are expected to prove important, os a contrast to the vivid color ranges. The red range ranks high. Cherry red, cerise, ashes-of-roses, mauve pink and pale mauve red are lead ing tones. A wide range of green tones in cludes bright yellow green, tur quoise green, reseda green and strong hues. Ten New Hosiery Shades Offered for Next Spring Ten new hosiery shades for next spring are shown in the ad vance hosiery color card just re leased by the Textile Color Card association to its members. The ten colors are: Glamour, a sparkling golden tone; carib, a cop pery hue with a rosy glow; cubatan, a new “leather” type of tan; Dal matia, a radiant copper; plaza beige, a warm light beige; swanky, a subtle medium beige; ewnni^, « dark beige; noonday, a subdued grey ish beige; avenue, a medium neu tral beige, and moondusk, a ше> dium grey ol taupe cast. XXT’HERE, oh where is the feminine wardrobe th a t wouldn't take on momentum through the addition of just these three simple, wearable frocks7 Surely like the Model T, it would be hard to flnd.

Clyde R. • Hoey from beginning to end rang like true statesmanship. There: was not a dry sentence uttered in the address, and the incoming gov- СГПО’Г, although he talked with the rapidity of a machine gun. never repeated, halted or blundered . And it Avas no trouble for any one to tell exactly what ho was talking about, and what 'he meant. He touched upon the ques tion» of taxation, governmental spendings, education, our highway system, agriculture, labor leigislation, social security, highway ba'iards, the liquor question, etc. Touching 0Ц the liquor question, the in coming governor did not straddle the fence, “1 nni not n fanatic on the liquor ouestion,” ¡he declared, “But I continue to regard liquor as Pubflic Enemy No. 1.” Further comment- inig on this question which will demand the attention of the present General Assembly, Mr,. Iloey said; ■ “You will never build either a .great state or a great county upon {iroti(s derived from (ho sale of liquor.” Speaking on the question of agriculture, the incoming governor, among other things, said: “More than half of our whole population is directly engaj^ert.in farming and continue to reside upon the farm, while practically every lousiness and interest in the State is responsive to the changing economic condition of the farmer. For the first time in history the government has been making a serious and determintd effort to place a/gricultui'e on a parity with industry, and the State and Federal agencies combining to serve the far mer... I wish to see the closeHt possible co operation of all of these a.^'cncies and the full co-ordination o f intelligent service so that the full benefits will be realized hiy the individual farmer—the small ones as well as those more fortunately circumstanced.’’ Tlio liniitofl space here prevents us from ♦iveu the high siuit.s of the uddrc*«», Llut we Avore so impi’tJiiaeu witii his ii'ppoai to the public for safer highways that wo can’t avoid the temptation liy helping to pass on some of the things he 'had to say. Calling atten tion w tho fact that last year l,Oai were kiil- ..ed and more IhousfintJs 'vere injured on our high-.viiys, h'ii appealed to motor vehicle driv ers Id eicereiso more care anti caution, “1 think wo should crusade fur safety on ■ our roads. It is not( enough to hold a few conferences and have some igeiierai discus sion, as helpful as that may be.” He went on to siiy: *‘Jiut we should so arouse public sentiment that it will aid the officers m enforcing the laws for the protection of travelers on our highways and so impress the reckless or care less driver that he will feel the weight of disapproval of other travelers regardless of whether an accident results from his reckless conduct. Public sentiment is powerful, and, if the press would lead and all civic and reli gious organizations give their hearty support and encouragement, I believe "e can reduce the hazards of travel. In this beginning of the new year I c'lll upon the State Highway patrol and all law enforcomont agencies, as well as the people of North Caroliiia as a wiude, iiiid nil who use our highways, to join in a determined effort to make the highways siife for everybody and greatly to reduce the faialities and injuries this year.” This ixibliciiUun has not clianged its views as to .Mr. llouy, and it still believes that Norlli Carolina is most fortimate in havin,g selected him as its governor, and l>.'lieves that he will make one of the greatest of the many great chief exeoulives this stale has ever had.

It is very doubtful whether or not there has been another writer in America who could so completely appeal to the interest of the people of all ages and> classes. Arthur Brisbane was unique and thdre may never rise up another writer like unto him in this nation. He had the ability to make his readers think for themselves. In other words, he could make his readers think the great thoughts that he himself douibtless thought as he wrote, which d'ue to brevity, ho did not actually pen. Tho “Today” column which had been a fea ture of the Hearst papers for, years, and which for som e tim e had become an outstand ing column in thousands of other papers, is no longer appearing. -------------------------0 ------------------------- A WAY WITH THEM The bill introduced in the General Assem bly on its opening day, designed to re'form our elections, should 'b(ecome a law. The bill provides among other things, that the absen tee ballot shall be abolished, and that no more “markers" shall hang around the poles. No-one but a •'sap” has ever doubted the fact that the absentee ballot and the “mairJier” have b/cen a “thorn in the flesh” to North Carolina elections fo r years. Tiiis is not "sour grapes.” The supporters of Dr. McDonald will nearly all agree with us, but we are not sore, because MclDonald was defeated in the nomination, for we did not support McDonald in the primary. -------------------------0------------------------- J P R E S S C O M M E N T THE HIGHEST SALARIES H eads New Show Thursday, .January 14, 1937 THE MOCKSVILLE ENTBRPRISI!.

Bureau of Investigation and the North Carolina Institution of Government to pro vide special training for police officers in the State, is most gratifying. It demonstrates the ambition and desire of many officers throug'hout North Carolina to widen their knowledge of law enforcomont methods and perform their duties with a high er degree of efficiency. The Officers Training School, now in ses sion at Chapel Hill under the auspices of the Institute of Government, has an enrollment of 81 officers from wide.ly scattered points in the commonwealth. The knowledge and training acquired by those men will be passed on by them in many instances to the officers back home with which they v^ork, thus making for greater a'll-hound efficiency in the local 1алу enforcement offices and departments. iBungling methods of crime detection and law enforcement have contributed as much as anything else to the) crime wave in this country and the Avidespread disrespect for law and the courts. Efficient enforcement cou pled with a niore even-handed and stern ad ministration of law from the bench will aid materialiy tho effort to restore respect for the processes and institutions of justice’. It is hardly conceivable, therefore, that any of ficer of the law can arrive at the) place where he knows too much about his profession.— Winston-Salem Journal.----------------------и----------------------- FREEDOftl “In Scotland wc dinna ca’ them Mayors, we ea’ them Provosts.” “And do they wear chains?” “No’na, They jist gang aboot loose.”— Punch (London).

"I never give away the se- srots that my friends tell mo and 1 always keep tho white people's eecrets. . I haven’t ever mentioned what I'm going to icli you but to one other person.”. "Mrs, Avery, 1 suppose," Patrick laid.I "Good guess, Patrick I” 1 put in. I “I told Mrs. Avery Saturday jnornlng,” Sarah said. Perfectly composed sho told Patrick the story of her discoveries In tho cabin. Again Sarah burst into tears. “Now, now, don’t think about it eny more. You go back to your work, Sarah, and don’t give this another thought. You haven’t got anybody into trouble. I knew who it was all tho time.”“I would have told you, Patrick, what Sarah has just told you,” 1 «aid after Sarah had di.<;appcared. "You see I didn’t think of it yes- Jerday, Tlie murder paralyzed my mind temporarily.” "Oh, 1 know you’d have told me," Patrick dismissed my explanation in an off-hand manner. "Do you know yet how Ace came !o go into my Spinney, Patrick?” 1 asked. "Oh yes, I got that last night, fle went there to meet Tony Tor- riano." "The bootlegger 1” I said. ' "Yes. It seems that— Of course you know that for years Ace has been spending money like a drunlt- ВП sailor. He’s really been up against it lately. He hasn’t paid Tony for months. He owed him three hundred dollars. Tony went Dver to the Blaikie house yesterday and I guess he staged a pretty good scene. Sam waa cleaning silver in the butler’s pantry and he could hear Tony storming way off Ihere. He got frightened and came Into the dinlng-voom to listen. He said that Tony grew pretty violent In his threats. He heard Ace tell Tony to meet him about half-past ten in your Spinnoy, that lie'd have the money for him then.” "And so you suspect-----” "Not a chancel Just think it overt I’ve l^nown Tony all my life. He’s all right. Wa went to ichool together, I’vo played tag, lops, marbles, baseball and foot ball with him. Tony’s as good as they come,” "Did you arrest him?" "No, but I told him to stick around because I might have to arrest him. And lie’s sticking around.” “Who spent the night in my Ut- Де House?” I asked next. “Walter Treadway," Pat an- twered. "I'm as sure as I can be that he did. Anyway ho didn’t go home that night. Somebody saw blni and Molly motoring early yes terday morning.” “Sarah guessed that,” I said aft- ir a while. “Our maids always know everything before we do." Outside, a motor crunched on ihe drivewny. In an Instant Sar- »h appeared. “It’s Miss Molly, Mrs. Avery,” she announced, “and Mr. Treadway." Bofiro I could speak, "Tell them U) сото ini” Patrick said. She had arisen from her chair as she pleaded, camo speeding like a blown /lower, across tho piazza to m e. As swiftly, Walter followed lier. He pul his orm about her. "He was murdoredl" 1 could say it in no fuller phrase, or in fewer words.“Murdered!” Molly screamed it. Walter pulled in ä long hissing breath. His wide eyes, still on my face, lie drew Molly close. Sho dropped her head to his shoulder; deadened her hysterics there. Patrick swung in, "The body was found in Mrs. Avery’s Spinnoy yes terday afternoon. He had been stabbed to doatii vvltli tho sword he wore at tho masquerade. Doctor Geary says he died about mid- nigiit.”"My GodI” Walter said in a stupefied tone.“As long as you’re here, Walter," Patrick went on steadily, "I want to ask yoii a few questions. Per haps Molly'd like to lie down for a while.”Walter led her to a couch. He seated himself beside her. Molly’s handkorciiief went up to her face. She began to shake but in silence; no sobs camc, Walter’s arm wont ábout her,"I must warn you both first,” Patrick said, "that anything you say now can be used later in evi dence against you," Walter looiced with « fierce wor ship down into Molly’s face, Molly looked with a tigerish worship up Into his."Ask U3 onything you wantl" they said in unison.

"Your just famous cof fee, Aunt Mary, Loads of iti" I rang tha bell, Sarah appeared, "Tell Bessie to make a big potful of colïee. And serve it in here!"

Molly's face turned to marble. “My mother!” she whispered. "Not your mother!" I said swift ly. "Ace!" “Ace?" Molly questioned. “He’s dead?” She answered herself in stantly. “Ace is dead!” Molly said this in a kind of solemn ques tion, a kind of solemn statement. She stared at mo. I could not speak.

"Well, we left the party—for tho sake oi easy arithmetic—lot us say eleven, I was back in the Little Housff., about five. That would make it six hours," "Were you with him all that time, Molly?"

Jazz Music “ 'T'HE music goes down around A whoa - ho-ho • ho -----.” That tune swept America from coast to coast recently until its very sound made radio listeners grind thoir teeth. It also marked the return to popularity of “swing” music."Swing” or roaJ jazz reached its first peak during the 192ü's along with siiort skirts and ilappers. Whether it originated among tho natives along the gold coast ot Af rica, or in coiorcd orchestras along the gold coast of our iargei cities, is still a matter of dispute.At any rate, the first dlack hero of jazz was Louis Armstrong, who created a sensation in Chicago with his wild trumpet solos of sucti pieces as "Struttin’ with Some Barbecue,” "Gully Low Blues,'' and "A Monday Date." His early records are still as highly prized by jazz lovers aa a Beethoven symphony. After Armstrong came m an y other tamous swing bands like Jean Goldkette’s and P’ i i n k Trum- bnuer's. But the popularity of jazz began to crumble about 1020 with the stock market. Maybe it is as- sociateJ with business prosperity. The beginning of its comcback dates from the winter of 1935, when "The Music Goes Round and Round” ran riot through the nation. In spite of the fact that Jazz has become an American byword, no one seems to know cxactly what the word means. L o is o f V a r i e t y in C r o c h e i e d E d g i n g s (TO a s CONTINVSD) G reater Than Napoleon TSJAPOLEON BONAPARTE was ^ ’ probably responsible for the de struction of more iiuman lives than any other man. During tho Napole onic wars and thos'? that follov/fcd it, five or six million people were killed. Napoleon is well known to every school boy. Yet a man ./lio saved many more lives than Napoleon lost is known only to the small group of people who have read the history of medicine. That man is Edward Jenner, the discoverer of smallpox vaccination. As a young country doctor, Jenner noticed that dnirymoida who coh- trm'tcH cowpox from tlie cows they milked seldom fell ill with small pox. Cowpox produces sorea on tho skin much like those ot smallpox, except that the disease is very mild. From this, Jenner got the idea ot vaccinating people with cowpox serum to prevent them from having smallpox.He tried it out on hia country practice, and found that nont of hia patients contracted smallpox after wards, even when they were in oculated with smallpox germs. When ho finally announced his great dis covery to the world in 1700, a few people received it with great ac claim. But many more •'pposed it violently, saying that smallpox was a visitation from God as a retri bution for the sins of man. Napoleon used the vaccine on his soldiers, as did a few other far- seeing people, but It has taken well over a hundred years for the prin ciple of vaccination to become gen erally accepted.

That is a tradition which has come down to us from the days when Mrs. William Astor was the reigning so ciety matron of the city.

Jim m y i-j A Pezalano of M aspeth, L. I., can tell you that. It vs^as a pencil ‘Y'v tliat brought him the big adventure of his life. And while plenty of people have got into trouble for being too handy with their j '■ pens, I don’t think they went through half as much grief as that ,\.,l little stielc of wood and graphite brought to Jim m y. V It all happened on December, 17, 1931, when Jimmy was worltlng for ■iu>. Í a drug manufacturing concern in Long Island City. Jimmy was a stock clerk, and one of hia duties wag to check over tlie shipments of whisity , and alcohol as they carne in, and store the stuK in a big, 200-foot square, Bteel-lined, burglar proof vault. Xhat vault was the danger spot ot the whole plant. In It weie stored all the explosive and inflammable chemicals in the place. . Ihere were tons o{ such stuff as chlorate ot potash, and gallons ot ,1; collodion, naphtha, ether and tho like, in addition to hundreds of , steel drums full ot alcohol. “And I was responsihlo for this slock,” says Jimmy. "Besides myself, only tho boss had the com bination that would open the massive door.” Ju st a Pencil Started tho Troublo On that fateful December 17 that we’re going to hear about, Jimmy ,was finding that responsibility pretty heavy. A shipment of foreign whisky had arrived just an hour beiore quitting time, and Jimmy couldn’t go homo until it was all stowed away. He and his helper hurriedly wheeled tho cases into the rear of the vault and started to open them and ‘ unwrap the bottles from the straw in which they wore packed. Tiiuy ,i, ,t worked rapidly for half an hour, but— "Doesn’t something always happen when you’re in a hurry?” Jimmy vvants to know. And I’ve got to agree witli Jimmy. Something always I j f, does. This timo it waa a pencil—tho only one they had. It dropped <rio the floor and rolled into a dark corner between two stacks of cases. They didn’t want to go back to tho offlco to get another one, so they did > Bomething that was strictly against the rules. Jimmy’s helper lit a ' i match to look for it. That match was hardly lit when footsteps sounded outside ‘ the door. Could it bo the boss? If ho over s.iw that liglitcd match in that vault full of explosives—well—somebody would get flrcd. Quickly, Jimmy’s helper threw tho lighted match into what looked like a puddle of water. Then, in an instant, that "water” had • burst intù lliiiuc. Tho “water” was a piidiilo of highly inilam- ' mable collodion tliat had leaked out ot a faulty drum. FJam cs Crept Toward the Explosives "Instantly,” says Jimmy, "tho flames caught in some of the loost. straw we had taken from the whisicy cases. 'Tongues ot Are began to f lick out toward the lonky drum the collodion had come from. For u Y,"second I was scarcid stiil. Thero v/as enough explosives in tho vr.ult to I blow tiie place to bits, and on the upper floors thero were more than ¡■'iaOO people getting ready to go liome. ij¿i “I leaped for a nirlc of sand pails, grabbiid two of them and yelled ;*>to my helper to got tho others. The flamo was creeping up tiie side of f the drum less than an inch from the plug hole when I threw tho sand ... over it. Grabbing tho other two pails from my helper 1 yelled to him run outside, ring the alarm and hurry back with an extinguisher. .iJiffhcn 1 threw the rest ot the sand. It barely sufficed to put out tho collodion Btill burning at the base of tho drum, but now the straw was burning . ^'liuriously, setting fire to tho wooden whisky cases.” It looked bad for Jimmy, but in nnuUier moment it was worse, tie heard a loudi slam—glanced at the door—nnd his heart almost stopped. In running out, his helper had kicked away tho stick i i used to keep tho heavy door open. It had banged shut. Jimmy was TRAPPED IN A BURNING VAUtT full of explosives and tho •; only other person who had tho comhinatlou was tho boss, WHO USUALLY LEFT TIIE FACIORV EARLY! Jim m y Mado a G allant Fight •i "I was stunned,” says Jimmy. "For a moment I stared blankly at '¡that locked door, but the acrid smoke brought my attention back to the .(rapidly spreading fire. Tliere was a bare chance and I jumped for it. i'iíLike a inaniac, I rolled tho steel drums away from the flames. With i; ¡’.blistered hands I pushed and jerked away heavy cases of potash until ,;,I managed to clear a small apace around the flames. Every few seconds .1 had to stop to stamp out flying sparks that threatened to set off some .'fltored explosive, but in tho end I had cleared the space and pushed all i l^the burning straw nnd wood to the «enter of the Are. Then, with fear ‘ jinspired strength, I dragged up heavy steel plates, used as a runway for hand trucks, and set them Ilice partitions around tho blaze. :,7 "None too soon. In another minute hell popped. Cases of whisky in 'iilhe center of the blaze began falling apart. Bottles went oil in a series of y.i.Bhattering explosions. Thanks to tiie steei plates, nono of tho scattering 'i^lass and flame struck me, but I had a busy time stamping out tho flying :'i,sparks and burning splinters of wood.” For a full ^5 minutes, Jimmy fought that blaze. Then, over- come by heat and smoke, ho was beating a reluctant retreat if# when the door opened and men came running La with sand and fire extinguishers.

In fact, writes Dr. ’fhom- 1 M. Beck in the Chicago Tribune, |lmost all primitive peoples be- Beved lightning was a sort of ma terial missile hurled by a vindictive lod. This theory died out in Eu- iope with the rise of Christianity, »nee it was difficult to reconcile the wea of lightning as a manifesta- Hon of divine wrath with the ob servation that it seemed to strike Miurch steeples more often than ,, „,jpything else. still we should not smile too much the mistaken beliefs of these ^ng-dead Greeks and Germans. We fe not very well informed on it jirselves. The average man knows |at it consists of electricity, that i zigzags in Z-shaped straight lines, tid that it never strikes twice in , J e same place. Armed with this [»№owledge, ha is two-thirds wrong. fiSlaghtning is certainly a dischargo ISW static electricity, as Benjamin ®%anklin showed many years ago. |But there is nothins at all straight im about a bolt of lightning, although apparently this fact was not known until lightning was actually photo graphed. Actually it follows a me andering course like that of a river as shown on a map. This figure is correct in other re- spect.«! than appearance, for light ning is actually a river of electric ity. Just as water follows the course of least resistance in flowing from a high altitude to a low, so does electricity move from a high to low voltage. In a Velvet Gown It is a far cry from tho Arabs at El Fustade near Cairo to tho looms of velvet on this continent, says the Montreal Herald. More than 2,000 years have elapsed since our earliest records o£ velvets among the Persians and East In dians. From the Arabs the art ot velvet weaving went to tiie Span iards, then to Sicily, and, in the Sixteenth century, into Franco where it developed under the skill of the most creative and intelligent hand-looms to power-looms, to meet tho volume oi demand, the process ot weaving has gone on. Velvet ia woven in two pieces at a time— face to face and cut with a luiife afterward, leaving a straight erect pile—the test of all pile velvets, First, heavy thick velvets were made, later finer types of velvets known as Lyons, then chiffon velvets and after that the slenderizing, draping material known as trans parent velvet T H E F E A T H E R H E A D S ву Oftbomc6 Кг«йгл N«»*pep«r Un!«i|C o m e to a B o il - . . i i m m f ] I АИII Th i s w a t e r 's r o o HOT— TRW ÍM 6- T o P t - '' k iL L М Б 2 WHV I READ THAI livj OAPAM 'Гй еУ ваТй ё im w a t e r AT 1 2 0 ° AMD VOU A BO U T ТИ 15- WHV— VvjAiT— IT W AS BAD É M O U óH • -Tr VikJ ís- T o S C A U P M e s o Р о Ы 'Т /I m l ] s e n s e / I Tr i e p iT— JU S T r »6 h t г.

The Bry ants, Boones and Morgans also came from Pennsylvania, and these families intermarried. In the records of Rowan Coun ty marriage bonds is found that of George Wilcockson and Eliza beth Beam. Oct. 20, 1767, with George Boone and John Wilcock son as bondsmen, A deed in. thei ilOT'an records (Book 12, p. GOO) is bietween William Hall of Ro- ivan County, and William Wil- coxson, of Bucks County, Pa., Sept. 12, 17'83, and witnes.sucl by Elizabeth Welch and John Wil- coekson. In Joppa graveyard, near the graves of Daniel Boone's parents, is a broken tombstone, the legible epitapli being;—"Wil- cockson departed this lif the year of Our Lord 1769, October tha XI.” Ill Eaton's Baptist Chui-fh gi'ft\’ey(ii'(] iiiij two Wil- coxson graves, the inscriptions Iiiiidiii,-!': “Here lies ye remains of diM. Wilco.-i.son, des-d. Sept, 16, aged o.j,” and also: “Here lif;.s ye remains of Eliz. Wilcox- « 111, d<.-c-d, Dec. Ifi, 1789, aged ■iy years.” A Rowan .County mar. • riage bond was issued to anoth er George Wilcockson and Eliza beth Pinchback (Pinchbeck) on Feb. 23, 1789, with William Hall as bondsman. Another settler entering land in 177S waa Andrew /Runt, who was a member of Dutchman's Creek Baptist Church (now Ea ton's) in Revolutionary days. In the church graveyard is a tomb stone rending thu®: “Here lies the remains of Andrew Hunt, dec. 8 Feb. 1803 in the 62 yr. of his age.” Jonathan Hunt, ‘Who al so entered land in Rowan in 1778, was an early member of Dutch man’s Creek Baptist Church. A marker in the aame graveyard boars this epitaph: “Here lies the remains of Jon-a Hunt, tl—‘ Sept. 5, 1780, in the 67 yr. of his age,” and ajiother grave is marked: “Here lies the remain'S of Judy Hunt, Dec.d-July the 2.9, 1798 in the 23 year of her age,” and still another stone re- ■iords: '‘Hero lies tho body of At-'ues Hunt, Dec. Oct. 29, 1782.” Entry, No. 470 is that of John Orton, who settled next to John Bryant in 1778. • He must have been the same John Orton who married Jane Bryan (t), daugh ter of John Bryan (t), as list ed in the Rowan Marriage Bonds on May 26, 1/70. The large Bryant family, most of whom were prominent 'I'oriea in the Revolution, is often mentioned in old recorde, sometimes the "t” being dropped, as Bryan. By fitting together old court lecords, church registers, and tombstone inscriptions, little by little, tho mosaic of local history is assembled. (M. J. H.) MORE ABOUT KIDNAPER Mrs. .1. C.

His second inaugurntion took place in Philn- delphia, nnd John Adnms also took the oat.h of office in that city, but was the f(rst President to live in the White House. Thomas Jefferson had the honor of being the first President to, be inaugurated in the n w City of Washington, then in a very crude nnd unattractive state. The cor nerstone of the Capitol building was laid by President Washing ton, with Masonic ceremonies, on Sept. IS, 1793. Like the W'hite House, the interior of the north nnd south wings o f' the Capitol was burnt by the British in the War of 1812.^ Many valuable books were burnt up at that time, but Congress then bought tjie _______ _______ large library of Thomas Jeffer-1 three of these Virglni^^^ son.

It is singular that all room tfor the House of Repre sentatives was called “the Oven,” so no wonder some of the apee ches were red-hot! As the new nation grew, more- representa- tiveS .flocked to Washington, so a Senate Chamber and a Houae of Itepresentativea Chamber were added, b^eing completed 'by 1859, The present orne of the Capitol is made of ¡wrought iron, and was 'finished in 1865, A foeautiful bronae statue of Freedom, 19V^ feet high, by the sculptor, Tho mas Crawford, surmounts the Dome.

Since then the . In- ooming Presideilt. has taken the oath of office bn the east portico of the Capitol.

The world is looking for super men, those who can work "mira cles,” and thus afford an easy solu tion for the problems of the home and of the nation. Men are ready to marvel at and follow in almost abject submission those who prorn- ise riches without labor, food with out toil, short cuts to comfort and satisfáction. Often they are con tent if they only hove something over which they may exclaim "Wonderfull” whether it be use ful or not.The miracles of God, through his servants and the Lord Jesus Christ, arc not mere marvels or wonders. They are not for the advancement of the cause of any man or for personal glory. T.U(;y are the mighty signs of an omnipotent God wrought for tho good of men, for thoir spir itual enlighltinment and os a testi mony to the one true God.The two miracles of our lesson present Josus Christ as a Lord of mercy and grace—ready to meet tho needs of men. Deep and real was his compassion as his heart yearned over needy humanity It is suggested that in the study and teaching of this lesson we vary our plan somewhat and present sev en seed thoughts found in the two portions assigned. It is also urged that the context in both chapters be read with care. I. Wo Are Impotent Folk (John 5;2) ................................................. The words well describe not only those who lay helpless about tho pool of Bethesda but they fit us as well. Oh, yes, we are strong, capa ble, fearless, but only until wo meet some great elemental problem. Then we see that we are indeed "a groat multitude of impotent folk.” Tho gently falling snow stopped the undefeated Napoleon. The silent fog can paralyze a na tion. Death, sickness—who can stay their hand? II. jDespair Spoils Defeat (t. 7). Long familiarity with his weak ness had bred In the man with the iiidrinlty a sense of despair. Such an attitude invites defeat. It Is unbecoming to a Christian. Let us not forget in the darkest hour to “keep looking up.” III. God Answers tho Weakest Fnith (v, a). Josus evidently saw in the man’s despairing reply a spark of faith. He who believes honors the name of God. We may need to cry “I be lieve, help thou mine unbelief,” but if we believe God will gloriously meet even our faltering faith, IV. Goa’s Command Empowers (w . 3, 0). Jesus told the man to “Rise—and walk”—the very thing ho could not do for his thirty-eight years of life. But when the Son of God speaks to us he gives tiie power to respond to his command. V. Works Follow Faith (v. 0). Tho man arose, took up his bed, and walked. Man’s faith in God and God’s response to faith lead to man’s action on God’s command. Too many are they in the church today who have never stood up and walked for God. VI. Iiook to God, Not at Your Ke- sources (John 6:9). Humanlike, the disciples counted their money and found it was not enough to supply food for n multi tude. And then there was a boy, but he had only five barley crackers and two little flsh. It almcst sounds like a church-board deciding to close the cross-roads church and let the Devil have the boys and girls, because It costs too much to keep up tlie work. God help us to trust and go on for him. “Little is much when God is in it.'* VII. Followers for Bread Kot Wanted (v. 15). Those who follow Christ because of business advantage and social prestige know nothing of what it means to be a Christian. He is not a bread - making king; he is the bread of life. Essence of Prayei; Prayer in its essence is not so much the expression' of our desire for things at all as of cur desire for God Himself. Disconrtesy Discourtesy occasions not mer«ly suftering, but Bin; and Christian courtesy is a "means of grace" to all who have the happiness to re çoive it.—R. W. Dale. The Day’s Work Let us make haste to live. For every day is a new life to a wise man.—Seneca. Grieving for Wasted Time He who knows most, grieves most for wasted time.—Dante, B u s y S u n b o n n e t G i r l s THE MOCKSVILLE EN TERPRISE, M ocksville, N.

BENJAMIN ] MadUoii Avsnua, N*w Vorit KtubiiBhtd taar 'J,:. . d :ж By EARL GODWIN. ASHINGTON. — E urope wants President Roosevelt step in and stop tliat row over there! European dictntois, arming them- sejves to tho teeth on. money they could better use to pay off their debt to us in the last war have blustered themselves to the point where they have just got to fight— and how they hate it! Our State Department knows this from inside sources; and I under stand our diplomats have been tell ing the President that Europe looks to him to prevent a World war which will drag this country into it; The stories we hear show that Europe is apparently scared of it self. Militaristic dictators of these increasingly warlike countries ap pear to be something like drunken rowdies wiio have forced themselves into a light—and then look around for some friend to hold them back. Most of tho European troubles can bo traced back to the division.of spoils at the Versailles treaty after the World war; Germany w as stripped of its colonies, and there were other rearrangements of the map. Germany would like its col onies back nnd American informa tion is that if a World war can be stopped by returning Germany its colonies — this could bn accomplish ed if someone like Roosevelt would suggest it. What is needed is some one wiio can mako those peaceful suggestions without Interfering with the prestige of some of the Euro pean leaders. Some time ago it was hinted broadly that tho President planned to step in and suggest unfriendly talk with Stalin of Russia, Hitler of Germany, Mussolini of Italy all present. At that time, early in the summer, the suggestion was mot with varying reactions. Mr. Roosevelt never completely denied tho implications in tho pub lished news stories at tho time I mentioned; for it involved tremend ous and dangoroii.q mntlers—but the situation has reached a point where Europe may make the suggestion. In which' case everyone here be lieves the President would acquiesce and do what ho could to bring pence to tho Old World just as ho has been working to Insure peace in tiie western world.• * • CONSTITUTION IS O. K. All thoughts of amending the Con stitution to conform to New Deal ideas have been abandoned in ad ministration ranks since the Presi dent himself has said there is noth ing the matter with the Constitu tion—it’s the courts that need at tention! The President passes on what he has learned this past year— that there is general feeling that "there is little fault to be found with the Constitution.” Several Presidents have crit icized the courts; among them was William Howard Taft, himself; who was later Chief Justice of tho United States; but memory fails to recall one who, prior to Roosevelt, told congress that 'the election was a mandate for a legislative program— tiie reactionary members of the Su preme c o u rt, notwithstanding. Those crude words will not be found in the text of the President’s first communication to the 75th congress —but tiioy are to be; found by those who know how to read between the lines. Tiie President actually never had any riglit to make such a statement before he went before congress, be- sause the issue had not been de cided by the voters; before election he had his own ideas on the sub ject, and his ideas became a part of the campaign issue—after elec tion he appeared to have the peo ple’s backing to ask all three branches of government—executive, legislative and judicial to keep step, in a liberal program. The President took his text from the Constitution itself; the preamble which is the fountain source of all “general welfare” legislation and Article 1 which gives to the congress “all” legislative power. When he in- ferentially questioned the propriety of the Supreme court knocking out the laws made by a congress of peoples’ representatives he was not introducing a new idea, for tiiis has been a debated subject for many years. It is a red hot question whenever a, law is rendered uncon- -stitutional-by a-five- to four vote, because that seems too close a mar gin, giving one man on the court too much fateful power. The Presi dent has had a long time in whicii to gauge the sentiment of the coun try since lie told his newspaper \friends that the court’s narrow at titude toward NRA put us back to the horse arid buggy days. The ■lourt, too, has had several expe riences with other New Deal legisla tion and in the famous AAA case. Hie minority members of the court critioized the majority in a bitter opinion written by Justice Stone. In that, tho minority. Justices Bran-, dels, Stone and Cardozo, reminded the rest of the cpurt that there were other branches of the government capable of carrying on. At the time the President made his “horse and buggy” remark, I received the im pression that he believed that sooner or later the people of the United States would demand a changed Constitution to guarantee the utiliza tion of tho full federal powers in social, economic and agricultural problems. That time may arrive; but apparently the President be lieves the first step should bo a lib eral view of the Constitution as it stands. In other days Theodore Roosevelt was loolted upon as a radical when he advocated popular recall of judi cial decisions; and that first Roose velt reminded the people that as radical as he might be he was not even abreast of Abraham Lincoln. The great war President, Theo dore Roosevelt recalled, said in his inaugural message the first time that "the people will have ceased to be their rulers” if vital questions ailecting all the people rested ir revocably on the Supreme court. In contrast,_ Franklin Roosevelt’s sug gestion that the courts have “an enlightened view” is straight and bold, but comparatively conserva tive.• • • STATES’ RIGHTS. There has grown up the idea that the founding fathers were complete ly states’ rights men in the sense that they wanted to reduce tho federal power to a mere trickle in contrast to the sweeping powers of the infant states. This has developed to the size of an overgrown political and legal fiction in the last twd decades by the constant hammer ing of corporation lawyers who have fought against federal regulation of their clients’ affairs. Many court opinions have strengthened this view, but despite all this, court opin ions are not the Constitution. No interpretation can make it less pow erful than it was held to be by the men who made it; and the de bates of the constitutional conven tion have impressed those who think as Mr. Roosevelt thinks, that tho founding fathers were strong for the states—but much stronger for tho federal government. In those debates students of the Constitution arc again finding that the powers of congress pros no jprôblëm to tho founders. They believed that the Constitution guarantood economic justice and tho rights of citizenship; they had no idea of a court tliat would deny .those things after congress had found a way to spread them about.* • * ASKS FIRE.»*aMS LAW. Homer Cummings, attorney gen eral, believes that it will aid law enforcement if the government knows who owns every pistol and rifle in the country, and again asks congress for a law requiring the registration of every such weapon. Cummings puts up a good case for his idea; he has to deal with the kidnapers and otlier gangsters— but the previous congress was stopped from enacting a federal fire arms law by protests from gun mak ers as well as huntors. There i.s a law for tho registration of machine guns; and the manufac turers thereof have an understand ing that these weapons are for sale only to the government or to na tional guard organizations. Gang sters steal them from armories. But pistols and rifles can be freely sold practically without stint—except in such cases, as that of New York state which has its Sullivan Jaw prohibiting the ownership of a pistol by a citizen. Opponents of the law say it takes away from the decent citizens the rigiit to arm themselves against the crooks who always man age to have a full arsenal. * * 0 JEALOUSY CROPS OUT. Two sets of government sleuths arc fighting for the honor of having put Al Karpis, notorious kidnaper nnd bandit, behind the bars of a federal penitentiary. The jealousy comes to light in the two separate annuai reports ot the Post Cilice and the Attorney General’s office, and it is an indication of the reason why the President wants to reor ganize the government and have fewer overlapping agencies' and bu reaus. , Karpis kidnaped E. G. Bremer and W. A. Hamm and immediately the famous G-Men of the Depart ment of Justice were on the trail. Karpis disappeared and did not show a trace until one day the Post al Inspectors, sleuthing on the trail of a train robber, turned up evi dence that Karpis had done the job and that he was accompanied by a gangster named Campbell also a kidnaper. Here, then, were the two croolcs being chased for two differ ent crimes by two different sets of goverriment detectives. Postal inspectors have been chas ing bandits for years without the publicity which now attends the fa mous G-Men; and they have a stand offish feeling about these kidnaper chasers. There was hard feeling in this instance — and some sharp words; but instead of co-opsrating, the two sets ot sleuths pursued their quarry along different lines; and at one time both sets of detectives nearly smashed up the whole game; they almost let Karpis et al got away. Finally the G-Men got both crooks —and they are both serving life sen tences. Now the Post Office Depart ment offlcially claims that its men picked up the scent which led to the eventual incarceration—while the Department of .Justice in its annual report claims, credit for the imprisonment of the two men,(b western Newspupor.

Anybody can hold me!" A • • Curing Temperament. JUDGE back east rules that this so-called artistic temper ament is not sufficient excuse for a so-called genius to beat up his bride. I tried the stuflr once—just once- but the presiding judge in my case was a lady. For years I’d been trudging as steadily as a milkman’s horse, whereas being a practitioner of a creative profession, I said to myself I really ought to stage some temperriment just to make thé farri- ily appreciate me. So I rehearsed my act and wont downstairs one morning and put it on. So my wife looked at me across the breakfast table, and said: “I know what the trouble with you is'. You’re bilious. You’ll take some calomel.” Well, what are you going to do when a bonutifully staged emotion al outburst is diagnosed, not as the promptings of a tortured soul, but as liver complaint? You guessed it. I took the calo mel, and, I pledge ycu my v/ord, haven’t had an attack since.« .« • Tho Law’s Delays. NCE a Massachusetts Supreme court reversed a felony convic tion because the prosebution, in filing the record, stated that the crime was committed “on the fifteenth day of June, 1055” but failed to state whether the year was 1055 A. D. 0£ 1055 B. C. And ever since then on quibbles almost equally fooliali—such as a misplaced comma or an upsido down period—other high, courts have been defeating the ends of justice and setting at naught the Ue- cisions of honest juries. Science has gone ahead, medicine has taken enormous steps forward, but law still rides in a stage coacii and hunts with a flintlock musket. Has it ever occurred to anyone that one reason for tho law’s delays is a lack of tho thing called common sense? « « * Dinosaur Ff)otprints. BACK in 1858, a college professor discovered on a sandstone ledge in Massachusetts a whole batch of imbedded tracks of the dinosaur— familiarly known to geologists as dinah, just as among its scienlifio friends tlie great winged lizard is frequently referred to as big liz. At the time, the discovery created no excitement—merely a slight shock ot surprise to the old families upon learning there was something historic in Massachusetts antedat ing tlie Mayflower. For the natur alists figured those tracks had been left more than 150,000,000 years ago. And they were suffered to remain nearly eighty years more. But here recently it develops that parties unknown iiave been chisel ing Dinah’s footprints out and toting them off. This would seem to in dicate either that America is get ting dinosaur-conscious or that dino- eaurleggers are operating, or both. So if a slinky gentleman should come to the side door, offering a prime specimen for the parlor whatnot, don’t trade with him, read er—call the police. Next time he may come back with a dornick off of Plymouth Rock or tlie corner stone of Harvard college or the name plate from Cotton Mather’» coffin. ” IRVÏN S. COBB©—WNU Scivicu. МецЫпв of “II. M.

Second, Calotabs are diuretic to the kidneys, promoting the elimination of cold poisons from the blood.

That does not includc.' $125,000.00 recommend ed for extennioTi service. V'&,are not in favor of impovprishing nor hampering the work of on our State University when compared with that is a rather huge bag of money to spend on odr State University when compared with the sum of only $50,000.00 n year recommend ed by the iComnussion for iWother’.s Aid, and $7,500.00 ft year for the caro of dependent children. Those in charge of Mother’s Aid -.ivctivitios asked the' Budget Commission for $100,000.00 a year. That r.ut the amount just half in two. The State University, including North Carolina State College and Woman’s Collejge, asked for $1,012,550.00 a year for the next two years. Had the Com.itission treat ed that institution !X3 it did Mother’s Aid, the recommendation would have been, for the ap propriation of $800,2789.50 in.stead of $1,453,- 343.00, the amount actually recommended by the Commission. ------------------------0------------------------- IT MUST COME TO THIS In the Superior Court in Gaston ¡County last week, five youths were convicted of a series of robberies. Although they were young, Judge Rousseau sentenced them to the road, their sentences ranging from nine to sixteen months. He suspended judgment in some of the other eases against the young fellows.' It seems to us that it is getting time that more of the Superioi-' Court Judges were) fol lowing the example set by Judire .Rousseau in Gaston County, There are entirely too many young criminals in this state. Any boy passed the age of fifteen knowa when he is doing v/rong. We believe in giving h:m a second chance when he makes a slight slip, but a youth from eighteen to twenty-five years of age who chooscs to go into the burglary busi- ne.ss rather than to work should be made to undL-t^taiid that lew can choose ¡n this v.'orid as to 'vhethci- Or «til litc.v >vork. Most UH must work, whether we "'ant to or not. We believe that there has been entirely too much pampering of the youiig generation. . PAMPERING AND SENTIMENTALITY ARE A tb RIGHT in THBIR FLACE, BUT USUAL LY THE YOUTH WHO IS El'TECTBD FOR GOOD BY "SOB STUFF” IS MAN ENOUGH TO BE A MAN WITHOUT IT. -------------------------o------------------------- t :DON’T “TIGHTEN” BUT ANNIHILATE It has been suggested that among the re commendations which the State Democratic Executive Committee will majje to the Legis lature at the meeting of the Committee Janu ary 22nd, will be an Ammendment to the present law which would provide for the no mination of judges and solicitors in conven- i.oii insilcad of by popular vote of the people in the primaries; tightening the absentee bal lot Uiwh; ciiange of the primary from the first Saturday in June to the first Tuesday in June; changing hours of voting fixing the limit at C o’clock A. M, and 7 o’clock P. M.; a new registration for all counties not having had one since July 1st, 1930; provision that any second pi'imariea would lall on July 4th be postponed until the following Tuesday. This publication hopes that the present General Assembly will not "tighten” the ab sentee ballot lawH, but that it ^ill annihilate them ab.soluately. We Uiink the proposition to change tho primaries from Saturdays to Tuesdays is a good one. Also that setting a definite liour on which the elections and pi'inua'ios shall open in the mornings ivnd fix ing a definite hour in the afternoon at which the poles .shall clc/se, is not a bad suggestion. MAY “SOAK TIIE RICH” The Gonural Assembly is now clown to work in earnest. One of tho big problems irith which it has been wrestling is tliat of balanc ing the budget. According to the recommen dations made by the Badget Commission, taxea aggregating over .?70,000,000.00 will have to be raised from some source/ during each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 1938 and June 30, 1939. That is several millions more than was spent the past fiscal year. If the sales tax on necessities is repealed, which in all probability it will be, the money which has bedn coming from that source will have to come from .somewhere else. Then too, there (Will be a rathcir largo sum to raise in addition to the regular budget, as recommended,, to take care of old age pensions and Social Se curity mftchinery. The Budget Commission did not take thi» into consideration, and the money will have) to be found over and above the $70,000,000.00, from somewhere. It is be lieved that the New Social Security machinery will require from $2,500,000.00 to $5,000,- 000.00 a yesr, which will make it necessary for the Legislature to find some source from which to raise in the neighborhood of $75,- 000,000.00 a year during the next two years. Where to get this extra money is a problem with whicjh the North Carolina solons are wrestling. Some of them are intimating that it will be necessary to “soak the rich.” Cer tainly it will 'be necesaary to get tho money from those who have it.------------0 ----------- STILL GIVING UP VICTIMS Pompeii, buried by ashes luid lava nearly two thousand years ago, in the first, eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, is still giving up its victims. Sixteen skeletons were unearthed oni January 12th 'by excavators at the buried city. Two of the skeletons were those of children, and the position in which all the sixteen persons W'ere found indicated that they were attempt ing to fly from the scene of destruction when struck by th molton lave. Personal possessions of, the viltims were strewn nearby, 'and included two bags of gold silver, and bronze coins, gold bracelets and pins in a jewel casket. “POOR FISH” Somo time ago, a distillery at Bundabery caught on fire and a quantity of spirits flow ed into a nearby river from burning vats. Shortly thereafter, the fish in the river be came exceedingly bold. Great hefty itellows would hob right up in front nf a boat nnd boldly defy the occupants. 'Many of them were caught, the iiah making apparently no ef fort to escape, and apparently in a state of glorious intoxication. Tho excessive use of liqdor has caused many a “poor fish” to rush in ‘where nngely fear to trcarl.” -------------------------O ------------------------- “SOftlE PUMPKIN” Mias Lillie Stephens of near Swannanoa, believes tliat she has' discovered a valuable variety of pumpkins.

Tho sentiment of the pre.»a seems to be very much in favor of the repeal of the absentee ballot in this state. ,, A number of publica tions are not in favor of having the law am- mended here and there “as a sort of sop to those who have been clamorous against it.” An editorial recently appearing in the Elkin Tribune quotes Editor Dowd of the Charlotte iN'cws itnd sanctions the movement looking towards repeal in toto. We quote: "The early introduction of a bill to abolish the absentee ballot law moves the Charlotte News to say: ‘'Pretty soon we shall see who runs this State, the delegates of the people in the General Assembly or the high priests of the Democratic party.” The Democratic Executive 'Committee’s sub committee having made recommendation that the a'Osenbee ballot law be mended here and there, as a sort of sop to those who have been clamorous against it, we take it that the lejfis- lature will take its cue from “the high priests” and turn thumbs down on WiJ.Ue Lee Lump kin’s proposal to use the axe. A few months back Democratic district meetiiiigs were falling over each other in de fense of tlie absentee ballot. One political leader openly declared that it is positively necessary in ordor to keep a number of wes tern counties in tho Democratic column. With the machinery thus properly geared. The News 'already has the answer. II js wx-it- ten in the back of the book. But editor Dowd speaks understandingly ■ when he says: “in the bacltgvound is a smudgy collection of election disgraces chargeable to the iDemo- cratic party and its deiu'ly beloved absentee law. Side by aide with them are the vocifer ous, outraged protests of voters whose ex pression at the polls waa distorted by poli tical manipulation. Nothing is inherently wrong with the absentee ballot law. Honestly adminiBtered, it, indeed, bestows some desira ble privileges. But as lontf an the politicians have it, they will abuse it. That has been demonstrated. The people have more need of tho law’s repeal, than they have of the law, even it.in amended form.

Next live Paul and Lora Eantes nnd their di»uRl»ter Molly. Molly was engaged to the murdered man» Ace lUaikie. She bad been еп;7лке<) to Walter Treadway, who had been the murdered man’s secretar/, but the engaRcment was sud* denly broken and be had left town. Other nelghlK)re are the F-'lrweatber sisters, Flora, a hopeless invalid and Murgaret. Ail hut the latter two attended the masquerade. Mary's eight* year-old niece Sylvia Sard is visiting her for the suniinrr. The wooded part' of Mary’s estate i.4 called the Spinney. In It Is n tiny tog cabin. Near a stone wall Is я tiny circular pond called the Merry Merc. This is the day of the mas* querade and excitement is high. Mary decides to take Sylvia, who is an tmusualiy observant child. Caro Prentins and Moliy Eanics drop In during thfi’ afternoon. Soon Blalkie, Doctor TiLirdcn and Drnce Нех.чоп, n friend of Ac'^’s. arrive. Molly is Impatient to leave and they all excuse themselves. At the party Sylvia identifies e.icb of the masked gue.its as they arrive. Асе comos garbed as Julius Caesar. Moiiy Cnmes appears fts a Snow Oueen, nc' compauied by a man In armor whom Sylvia hlentifics as WnJter Treadway, They dance together continuously. Caro I’rcnliss and Mar- den arrive dressed In Kevolutlonury costumes, the doctor '.vearlng Jeweled shoe bttcklcs. Wiien the guests unmask, Ace, Walter and Molly have disappeared. When Mary Avei'y leaves the party a little after two, neither MoDy and Walter or Ace В]л1к{е h;>d returned. Sarah Darbe confides to Mary that sonicohc apparently had spent the night In the Little irouse .and r<;turn3 screaming. She has found Ace nialkie stabbed to death fn the Spinney. Mary summons Patrick (/’iirien, chief of po* lice, who had been a schoolmate of hers and Ace’s. Her mann.4crlpt '/ccalls early impres- eioMs of Ace—how hr had been wealthy, the most popular boy In town, how he ha<l gone (u Paris to study medicine, became an aviator In the World war, returning tf> practice in Satuit, how he was recklessly generous and the principal in scores of love affairs. JJruce Ifexson had come b.ick from the war with Ace, lie was a lawyer, a man o( private means and had *'got” rellcion, hccomc a virftml recluse. Sarah tells Patrick that someone bad slept In tbr T.Htle House the night- of the murder. Patrick reveals that» Ace had gone to the ¿pin* ney to meet Tony Torriano, his bootlegger, to talk business. He does not believe Tony guilty. He also dlsclo.4es that Walter Treadway had heen In the Little House. Meanwhile Waller and Molly come to Mary's house, tmaware o! the tragedy. Walter readily admits he had spcrt the night in tlie Little House, since he hud come to town sccrctly. JioJIy and Walter ■re thunderstruck by tho news of tne murder. SUNDAY—Continued —9—, "Did you hear anything the lit tle time you slept?”‘‘Not a thing! I was dead to the world."“You hadn’t heard of the mur 'der until you got here?” ••No.”“Where were you yesterday?" “In Plymouth!” “What did you go to Plymouth for?"“For—for purely private rea- isons." ’. “When did you go?" "Saturday morning.” “How did you go?” “In Molly’s roadster.” “Did you stay there all day?' VYes."“What time did you start from Satuit?" “About half-past nine.""Where did you and Molly meet up?""At t!ie Mardeu house." “What time did you go to the Marden house, Walter?""About a quarter to nine, I should say." “Wiiere did you breakfast?" ‘.‘There, with Molly and Caro. “Then about half-past nine you and Molly set out for Plymouth?" “Yes." Sarali’s entrance at his moment created a diversion. She was wheel ing the tea-wagon. On it were the coiToe things. Baclt of her came Bessie bearing my biggest silver troy. On it was a stack ot waf fles. “Mrs. Avery," Sarah explained, “I thought you’d all be hungry by this time.” , “Oh Sarah!" I exclaimed, “bless you for this clairvoyance!" Molly suddenly came alive. “Hungry 1” she moaned. “Hun gry! I’m famished. Oh please ev erybody stop talking about his aw ful tragedy long enough for me to tell you—Aunt Mary, Walter and I were married yesterday morning in Plymoiith.” For a moment, there came a shocked silence, X stared at Molly. I did not know whether or not Pat rick stared. Certainly ho made no sound, no move. My thoughts went wild. Ace dead, Ace murdered, and Molly doping in Innocent triumph on the heels of hia tragedy! And yet as I kissed her, I was con scious of the first sense of let-down since Sarah discovered Ace’s body in the Spinney. For a tiny interval I was happy. Patrick seemed happy too. He gripped Walter’s hand hard and to Molly he dropped an abrupt, “I’m so glad tliat you know your mind at last!" , Working swiftly, the two maids had cleared my bi,( round maple table I transferred our second breakfast to it. We drew about it. I poured the coffee. The telephone rang. As Sarah started toward the hall, I said, “You answer this call, Sarah. But if it’s for me, I'll answer. And from now on, I’U take any calls—person- ai ones, К mean." 1 heard ШкгаЬ U’ie olt the re- cciver, her soft-voiced, “Hello 1" and then her, “Oh yes sir, she’s hero.”Sarah reappeared at llie door way. “It’s Mr. HopestilU" she an nounced in a happy voice. 1 jumped to my feet. Just as Sylvia is my favorite niece, Hope- still Blaine is my favorite nephew. He is the oldest son of my oldest sister. I ran to the telephone. “Oh, Hopestill, my dear boy," I called Into it. “Yon don’t know how glad I am to hear your voice. You can't imagine how it com forts me."“You would have heard it much sooner if I could have got to you," Hopestill answered. "The moment wo read the papers this morning, mother and I decided tiiat I’d better beat it over lo your place nnd stay with you. I've been trying to get you the whole morning, but I haven’t been able to make a con nection until now. I supp0.>!0 every body in the world’s been trying to telephone you.” “Everybody,” I replied. “But un til an hour ago. I’d spoken with no body, and until an hour ago, I’d seen nobody but Patrick O’Brien and Mattie Stow. And now Molly Eames and Walter Treadway are here. Walter and Molly Treadway, I should say. They were married Saturday morning. But perhaps shouldn’t have told you. I'll tell “I’m So Glail That Yon Know Your Mina at Lastl” you about that later. I shall love to iiave you come, dear boy.” “Molly married! I’m—well you tell her I’m jittering over the phone!” “Where are you?” I asked “Week-ending at the Abbots. I’ll be over there sometime in the next half hour. I haven't said yet how awful we think it is, nor given you any of mother’s messages. Siie’s prostrated. You know she was very fond of Ace Blaikio.” “Everybody was," I put in. “It’s a terrible business," Hope still went on, "but I won't ask you any cjuostions now. I'll be there as soon as the speed laws will let me and I'll stay as long as you need mp^.” '‘ “ “I’m glad Hopestill’s coming!” Molly commented. “You need somebody here, Aunt Mary. And Hope’s such a swell kid!” “Who’s that?” Patrick was sit ting with his back to the piazza and he spoke without looking around. Then I heard the sound of a motor. Sarah appeared. “Miss Prentiss would like to see you, Mrs. Avery."T nf Unit^inlr TTn riMnrtart- I shall begin presently to experl ment in cooking.”“I shall give you a dining-room table for a v/edding present,” I promised. “Old maple if I can flnrj it."“That will be grand. Aunt Mary," Molly approved.“Miss Prentiss," Patrick took over the conversation again, "I And that I shall have to ask you some more tjueotions. I hope you won’t mind. I shouldn't bother you. It's merely a matter о/ routine.”"Oh please usic me os many as you want, Mr. O’Brien," Caro replied simply.Patrick fumbled in one pocket and found a little leather note book. "I have to warn you again that anything you say now can be used ngaihat you nnd that there are witnesses present.” He fum bled in another pocket. “Darn, 1 haven’t a pencil on me. Do you happen to have anything I can use, Walter?” Walter handed him a fountain pen. Patrick held it poised over a notebook, his eyes fixed in tently on it. “Miss Prentiss, did you know that Walter and Molly were going to be married?"“No, Mr. O’Brien—not definite ly. I suspected it!"“When did they leave your house Saturday morning?" “Somewhere between nine and ton — about half-past nine per haps."“Did they toll you whore they were going?" “No." “Did you ask where they were going?" “iMo."Patrick made a few notes In the.noteboolc, handed the pen back to Walter."Did you know you were going to elope with Walter when you went to the masquerade, Molly?" “My suitcase was all packed in my car." “Here’s Hopestill!" Patrick ex claimed again without looking around.The runabout crunched to a stop outside and Hopestill came strid ing into the room. He is a big, tall, stoop-shouldered lad — niy nepliew—not lanky exactly, but angular. Perhaps the most notice able thing about him are his eyes ! —steely gray and deeply sot. With ' his characteristic long, swift step, he crossed the room to me. “I never thought I’d see you on such a tough-spot, Aunt Mary!" he ex claimed, putting his arm nbout me. “Oh. I'm all right,” I answered. “I had, all told, about six hours of good,sleep last night. And I'vt. just had some strong coffee. Have a cup?"“You bet!" Ho turned to the others. “Hello, there, you two. What do you mean—getting tied so suddenly? Congrntvilntional” He kissed the bride, “Hello Pat!” he concluded. He shook hands with Patrick. “You've got your work cut out for you!” “I’ll say!” Patrick "wrung Hope- stlll’s hand. "Glad to see you. I think your aunt needs a man about. I've transferred police headquar ters to her house.” “It’s a ghastly business!” Hope- still commented soberly, “Gee,, you read about murders In tho( paper with the greatest calm. But when it strikes home—well, you suddenly realize that you’ve never really known what it meant 1зв- fore.” , “That’s the way I feel, Hope still,” I agreed a little drearily. “You've never met Miss Prentiss. My nephew, Mr. Blaine, Caro." Hopestill strode to Caro's side, shook hands with her. We all sat down. Hopestill ensconsed himself on the couch, his eyes following Caro’s movements. Molly and V/alter arose. “I think we'll be going, Aunt Mary,” Molly said, “unless, Patrick, you want ua " Home Heating Hints Heating export TT'S easy to regulate a furnace fire to meet the requirements of daily temperature changes.

When more heat is needed, the check damper should be partly closed, the ashpit damper partly open. For ex tremely cold weatlier, the chock damper should be closed tight, the ashpit damper wide open. The proper use of these two dampers insures tho proper degree of heat at all times on a minimum amount of fuel.

"Good morning, Mrs. Avery!” she said to me. “Hello tiiere—you two!” she said to the Treadways. “Good morning, Mr. O'Brien!" she said to Patrick. An awlcward pause intervened. I did not want to make Molly’s great announcement if she wanted to make it herself. Apparently she wanted to make it herself. “ Caro, darling, come over and kiss me!" she ordered finally. “Since I saw you yesterday, I have become Mrs. Walter Tread way."Caro's face grew radiant, but she did not seem surprised. “Oh, I’m so glad!" she exclaimed. She rushed over to Molly, kissed her, kissed Walter. “I'm so hap py!” Then as one remembering, ‘'As happy as any one can be-----” Molly shivered.

It belongs to the United States navy, and for 12 hours, strong m en v/ere trying to laugh off their quaking knees and the wild-eyed apprehension that something was going to happen to them. That something WAS going to happen, was what everybody believed and nobody ad m itted. The trouble was that no one had any idea of WHEN it w as going to happen. But on with the story! ” And with that introduction, Ed Wagness goes int oone of the most astounding tales of what men's imaginations can do to them, that I have ever heard in all my life. To get the whole yarn, right from the beginnlni:, we’ye got to follow the career of a battleship—tlie S. S. Cbarleston. Ed says she was built at Newport News, Va., In 1903 and commis sioned for duty in the Atlantic fleet. In 1906 she Wits ordered to the West coast as flagship of the Faciflo fleet, and in December of that year she made the trip around the Horn. But before leaving tor tho Vl'ost she put into New York harbor for provisions and liberty for the crew. Astounding M essage of the Visitor. The Charleston was one of the first four-stncker vessels in tho navy, and people were interested In her. She received quite a number of vis itors, and one visiting day a little old lady came aboard and asked the oflicer of the deck if she could see, the captain “Of course,” says Ed, "she was not accommodated, for cranks were always trying to teU the captain how to run the navy. But the officer of the deck, out of politeness, asked her if there was any message he could take to the captain.” The little old lady wasn’t stumped. Tes, there was a mes sage. “Please tell the captain," she said, “that the Charleston will be blown up in Magdalena bay, Mexico, on the eighth day of May, 1908. It will be a foggy, rainy day, and she will be blown up by a tramp steamer which will come from nowhere and will refuse to give any information concerning herself.” That Gave tho Crew a Big Laugh. That was a big laugh for the crew. Imagine a foggy, rainy day' in Magdalena bay, they chuckled. Why there hadn’t been a drop of rain there since time began They put ihe oid woman down for another crackpot, and forgot about it. That is, they did until May, 1908. ТЬи Charleston took up her duties in the Pacific. She was in Mag-! dalcna bay in October, 1007, then returned to San Diego, Calif. She was back in Magdalena bay in the spring again, for target practice. “April blossomed into May,” says Ed, “and wo wero still there. The sky was still a perfect blue and there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. The prophecy had been forgotten—well, amost forgotten, But some of tho more superstitious on board did remember, and on tho night of May 7 we all turned into our'hammocks wondering. “The eighth of r.Iuy dawned, COLD, l<-UGGi; and RAINING— unheard of sinoa no one knew when. But wo told ourselves it was only a coincidence. How could anything happen to us Besides, the tramp steamer Hadn’t shown up yet. On the surface all was serene. Men laughed and Joked as they went about their work. But many an anxious eye was oast toward the mouth of the harbor. AND THEN IT HAPPENED!” About three o’clock that afternoon tho men on tho Charleston could make out, through the fog, the general outlines of a tramp steamer entering the harbor. Ed says that, along aboiit that time, many a ruddy complexion took on the general hue of a bag of flour. It began to look as if the little old woman knew what she was talking about. No merchant ships ever entered that harbor. It was too dangerous, what with battle ships firing big guns all over the place. But there siio was, moving straight toward the Charleston, and tho Charleston’s frantic signaling could get no response from her, whatever. W aiting for Something to Happen. Says Ed; "She steamed past us and anchored about 500 yards oft our starboard side. She refused to give us her name or call letter, and all we could get from her was that she had lost a propeller blade and had dropped into ship a'nother. No tramp as miserable as she was ever carries a spare blade, and we knew it, but nevertheless, over tho side went a diver. ' “Through the fog we could distinguish nothing but outlines as we tried to watch his movements, hut we imagined more and more as the day wore on aiid a dark night began to settle down. Wc wste served a hearty supper, but our appetites weren’t any too keen. Rumors ran riot, imaginations started to do their stuft, and that empty feeling began to find Its way into the pits of our stomachs. The smilcü were gone from the faces of strong men. Inaction was killing us by torture If they were going to strike, for God’s sake let them do it now. Do something—do anything! But do iti" Awake A ll Night—for N othing.' The bugler sounded lights out and hammocks—but there were dog gone few men who rolled into their hammocks that night. “They sat around in litttle groups and wondered,” says Ed, “and anyone walking around the deck could see little piles of life belts placed here and there by Kome gob or bunch of gobs who wuiun’t taking any chances. Even the commissioned offlcers kept pretty clone to their preservers. Men talked and speculated. What wa.4 the idea anyway? Who'd want to de stroy the Charleston? And so the night wore on." The night wore on-and NOTHING HAPPENED! "Just before day-, light," says Ed, “we heard the tramp hoisting anchor. Soon she was steaming past us on her way out to sea. And then, after heaving sighs of relief, the entire crew fell to and cursed that rusty old tub as only strong, healthy sailors can curse." ©—WNU Sorvlc*. Wipe and coro apples.

It is a gigantic combination of intricate mechan isms which takes in raw stock at one end and spins forth paper at the other. A full-si/ed machine ap- proaciies 200 ieet in length, weighs nearly a million pounds and costs in the neighborhood of a half million dollars. Because it is a grouping of machinery, one might say that there is a hazard every foot of the length. There are some fifty individual mo tors, about twenty - five pumps, thouaanda of feet of pipe and many miles of wire. Every unit must co ordinate perfectly to deliver a prod uct that is satisfactory. The Cloak Was Titian That dress maketh the man was noted long ago. Titian, the famed Italian painter of the sixteenth cen tury walked home in hi.ii working clothes unnoted, but returning im mediately to the street again, in his court costume of purple velvet, ev ery person he met bowed and did him homage. Disgusted, Titian, back in his studio, tlirew the cloak on the floor, cxcIaiming, “Thou, then, art Titian; 60 much for drapery!" England's Government The supreme legislative power of the British Empire is vested in a Parliament which is dominated by the House of Commons, of which the premier is the responsible head. Parliament is summoned by writ of the king on the advice of the privy council, and the king opens and closes each session. The king has a right to veto bills passed by both houses of Parliament, but in prac tice hia veto is obsolete, as custom has decided that he must sanction, every bill which Parliament ap proves and resolves lo make law. Whatever the theoretical powers of the king may be, they are unques tionably limited to his personal in fluence over his ministers.

Her name is not even known to us today, but by preparing five bis cuits and two small mulleta for her little boy’s lunch that day, she had a part in the miracle, just as Salome, the dancer, did by asking for the head of John the Baptist. It is remarkable how God uses small things to carry out His plans. He even sometimes takes the bad acts of men and women ind uses them for His own glory just as He did in the case of the dirty work of Joseph’s 'brethren who sold Him into Egypt.

Turning the soil is not recom mended. Sow about 30 pounds of Kentucky Blue Grass and .£ pounds of White Dutch Clover per acre. The .grass and clover seed' should be 1 sown separately because the clover seed are heav- vier than the grass seed and would give uniform seeding if sown together. An application of old stable manure at the nate of 8 to 10 loads per acre is then put on. Hook team to a brush and drag or sweep the area. This would cover the seed and insure 'iniform spreading of the manur^ Pastures seeded in September and February give good' results The now pasture should then Ufi fenced off so that it might ,^?et a start.,, The pastiire may be grazed in the late summer and early fall the first year. FeAv people manure fpaatures. .Perhaps require iuimus because it helpa hold moiature and fur nishes plant food. A heavy ap plication of manure insures a good sod of tho Blue Grass and Clover mixture. This sod will then choke nit narmful weeds, consei-vo the soil and furnish pasture for two or three cows per iicre. Dairy cattle on abundant pasture near the barn produce cheap milk. M rs.

The aame quaint little woodcuts for each month appear ypar after9 year, and pic ture various occupations, such ag nieiidliig fvurm tools and~féñcesi, plowing, fishing, reaping, thesh- ing and making mo'lasses, for the almanac is especially for farm ers.

Thu custom created .so much excite ment, especially when svome fore casts came .true, that the King of France in 1579 prohibited po litical foretelling in almanacs. In modern days the newspapers seem to have taken that task off of the almanac's hands in election years! The straw 'ballot must be survival of this' old almanac fashion. In colonial America a popular booklet was “Poor Rich ard’s Almanac,” first published by Benjamin Franklin in Phila delphia in 1732, the year that George Washi;igton ■was born. In addition to tho calendar an« wea ther forecasts, Franklin printed many original proverbs in praise of industry, frugality and other virtues. Some lof these wise say ings were in verse, as “If wind blows on you thro’ a hole; Make your will and take care of your soul.” Among other proverhs of ‘Tranklin'a were: “God helps' them thiat help themselves”; “The rot ten Apple spoils his Compan ion;” “ He that riseth late must trot all Day, and shall scarce overtake his Business atlN ight;” “Beware of little expences, a small Leak will sink a great Ship”; and this very true adage: "If you would have a faithful Servant, and one that you like, servo yourself.” Coming back to our “Made in Carolina” 'almanac, f linT-'S are dull (or if it happens to rain) ait down 'and read ••Blum’s.” There you will find not ren and two great-grandchildren, 'rhe funeral was conducted at Un ion Chapel on Wednesday morn ing at 11 o’clock, with Rev.

We were going to cut down the volume of traffic disnsters, going to ireduce the appalling mortality toll which had marked the pre ceding year. So what? Well, here’s whut. Д'Ье end of 193G showed an all - time top for deaths on the public highways— roughly 37,450, or approximately 450 more than in 1935.So now we’ll pious- IrvUi S. Cobb ly resolve, all over again, to do something about this hideous destroyer which kills by the thousands and maims by the hun dreds of thousands and makes our fatalities .and casualties in the world war seem, by comparison, puny. And what will come of the renewed agitation? The National. Safety Council will wage a gallant, hopeless fight, various local organi zations and civic bodies will do what they ca!i^, newspapers will rail and statesmen will deplore—and tho ghastly record of slaughter will keep right bn mounting..* * . * The Value of '‘Experts’' I HEARD a supposed expert ad vising a director, bound for Africa to shoot a big gamo picture, that practically everything about his kit was WTong except possibly his rear collar button. It reminded mo of the'pampered imillionaire’s son who was heading for the' arctic circle. He called in a veteran of polar expeditions and told about his outfit. All went well until he started describing his parka. "It’s fine,” he said, ‘‘made of seal- skm and the hood all iringed wUli wolverine and—” "One moment,” said the profes sional, “is the hairy surface oí the pelt worn next to your body?” "No,” said the youth. "Tho fur is outside, of course.” "All wrong,” pronounced the crit ic. "Thermal denrionstration h as proved that to conserve the bodily heat ths hide should be turned so the fur is used as a lining and the smooth or naked side is exposed, thus cutting the wind.” The youngster burst out laughing. "Have I said something to excito ^our mirth?” demanded the special ist. "Oh, not at all,” said the amateur, "I was just thinking what a darned fool a buHalo is.” •, • • Americans in England T> KNEWED excitement has been aroused in the British iiiles by tho discovery that yet another mem ber of the royal family—this time it’s the young duke of Kent—not only shows a regrettable tendency to enjoy himself as any normal nat ural, healthy youngster might,.but, what is even more distressing, has lately been seen in the company ot an American woman.

It is worthwhile noting that not a single one of these expected benefits iias materialized. Taxes on liquor have not reduced general taxes. After all, wbijt de cent American would want his taxes cut with “blood-money”? Bootleg ging thrives more flagrantly than ever. Evasion of liquor taxes in dicates that about half of America’s liquor is “bootleg.” The specter of unemployment still stalks tho land. And are our people temperate? Ono could laugh if it were not so tragic I Tho consumption of liquor is fast becoming a national disgrace. And tho tragedy is that Christians have for tho most part supinely said “What can I do?" and have done nothing. The repeal oi prohibition was brought about by the indiflercnco of American voters. The issue was finally settled by the, votes of Jess than 23 per cent of the registered voters. \ Where were the other 77 per cent ? Whore are they now? But our lesson goos deeper than the matter of intoxicating liquor. It deals with two contrasted modes of living. What a man is deter mines what ho does. If ho lives for tho flesh he will pander to its tnstp.4. If ho lives in tho Spirit he will not only be right in his atti tude toward liquor but toward every phase of life, yes, even toward eat ing. Let us consider those two ways of life-and weigh carefully our own lift) decision. In which way do I walk? rtemember that ono may live to the flesh even though he is not a winebibber. It is a matter of heart interest and relationship to God. ■ I. Living in tho Flesh, The word flesh In Soripturo does not refer to our physical flesh and blood, except as it is dominated by self-will. But when self-will rules tho body, and God’s will is ruled out, a man lives in the flesh. Our lesson gives a terrifying pic ture of such a lifo. It makes a man a senseless lover of pleasure for pleasure’s sake (Prov, 21:17). He is a lover of wine, a glutton (Prov. 23:20, 21), carcless (Matt, 24:'18), disorderly and unfaithful (v, 49), and a professed follower of Christ bocauso of what it brings him (John 6:20). His end even in this world is disgrace and poverty, and in the world to come, eternal juds- mcnt (Matt. 24:51). II. Living in tho Spirit, “They that are Christ’s have cru cified the flesh with the affections and lusts” (Gal. 5:24). They are therefore admonished to “walk in the Spirit,” that is, to submit their lives to tho control and guidance of the Spirit of God. In other words seek God’s will, not self-will. What kind of men and women are those who live in “the spirit”? A re-reading of our lesson texts re veals them as, wise, faithful, dili gent, temperate, not following the Lord because of any gain to them selves. What Is their reward? In this lifo they are entrustod with more work for their Master (Matt. 24:47), The reward for Christian work well done is more v/ork. So if you are lazy, don’t begin. But if the fires of holy ambition to serye him burn within your soul, go on, and he will lead you further on until at last in the world to сото you will have the all-sufflcient reward of his “Well done, good and faithful servant." Bravo Men All brave men love; for he only is brave who has affections to fight for, whether in the daily battle of life or in physical contests.—Hawthorne.

By EARL GODWIN ASHINGTON.—Ever since Roosevelt was first in Washington as Assistant V{ Secretary of the Navy in < the Wilson cabinet he has had ( i on ambition to put the business of 1 ) government on a basis of good man- agement. He had that idea in mind ''when he began to feel the urge to i be President; but when he took of- 1 flee March 4, 1933, he had to for- get good management for the des- <<(*iperate work of stemming the tide of depression. He knew that the great weakness in American gov- ^ ' ernment was the sprawling federal set-up which has grown up in a morass of red tape and time-con- ^^suming bureaucracy—and the hast ia , ily created emergency organizations ' ' j served only to add to the con- i", fusion. Now that he has sent to congress a complete new chart for the ad- Í ministrátlon of the government’s • business, it is interesting to know that he talked of this proposed re form at least three years ago to , Professor Charles E. Morrlam, chairman of tho department of po litical science of Chicago university, j Professor Merriam can properly be ^ called one of the outstanding au- ' ^ thorities in political science and ad- f j ministrative management.

In business organizations, the various depart ments head up to managers or vice- presidents who report direct to the president of the company. In tho United States government theru jWere originally a handful of cab inet oillcors, with departments un der them. ’These departments have now boon increased to ten départ ements under ten cabinet ofllcers, I but in addition congress has creat- *ed 130 various commissions, boards *‘ *and government corporations, ev- \ '/'cry ono of which also reports to the i President.

Incidentally the stall of aides, tv' ^clerks, etc., assigned to the Prosi- j dent is pitifully small.

This or any other government, if it does not function properly and fails the peo ple, can be destroyed by a revo lution. There is one suggestion be fore congress which has been ar gued and boosted for seventy-flve years. The civil service, Mr, Itoose- velt sugge.sts, should be extended "upward, outward and downward’' so that tlie government offers a ca reer for the best available men and women who can be assured of go ing to the top if they have the mer it and ability. This is the old idea of taking politics out of government service, and in addition, to putting the same kind of (top and ginger into the service that you find In some of the great industrial cor> porations where it is well known that every president and big bos9 generally started in at the bottom. Members of congress are genuinely and sincerely divided on the ques tion, It is not entirely fair to say that those opposed to a greater ex tension of tho civil service are more interested in political jobs for their constituents than in fine public serv ice, There is a feeling that a com plete hardboiled civil service will produce a class of government of ficials of the high-hat variety. It is more or less true that the career men of the State department, un til they begin to mellow with ago and success, are quite likely to sneer at the ordinary taxpayer—an attitude which pains the lawmakers who appropriate tho money to supi port these officials, * • * CIVIIi SERVICE The President made his civil serv ice and other reorganization pro posals in tho week in which Wash ington celebrated the fifty-fourth an niversary of the enactment of tho civil service law—more than half a century—during which time the government has made notable prog ress away from the spoils system as it existed in the notorious era between the Civil war and Garfield’s time. In that black era there was a ring of politicians who coti- trolled tho whole field of govern ment jobs ; and attempts to better the situation wore mot with tho same sort of criticism that the Roosevelt “brain trust” received from tho present day reactionaries. So great an editor as Charles Dana, of tho Now York Sun sneered at attempts of Grover Cleveland to better tho situation, calling it tho ‘‘snivel service,” rrobably the Inlruduclloa of tho merit system would have been de layed many years but for the aS' sassination’..of President Garfield. Ke was sHbt one morning in the Washington railroad station by dlsappohited office sookcr, and the public reaction provided the impe tus necessary to put the Civil Serv ice act on the statute books, Tho votes, both in senate and house, were overwhelming, and President Gnrfield’s successor, Chester A, Ar thur, signed the measure at once. The merit system began in a small way, but in every adminla tration more and more government positions were subjected to the test of merit. Today about 60 per cent of all government jobs are under tho merit system, Mr, Roosevelt wants to put 100 per cent under the system, and improve it too. There is an immediate question as to whether the President’s plan of reorganization will save money. The answer is that it will save $30,- 000,000 a year, which is only ono per cent of tho three billion dollars annually spent for salaries. If con gress wants to save nioro than that (and it should) it can on its own initiative cut out somo of the vast array of government functions. Sen ator Byrd of Virginia is making a Srest noise about that right now, and it may be that he will capture the popular Uinelight, because his own report to the senate on econ omy in government is already mak ing headway, altliough it is frag mentary. 'He has itsmlzed so far a few of the overlapping, duplicating agen cies which are spending money needlessly. , Among the astounding facts he has emphasized-are those: There are 50 federal legal divi sions in Washington. There are 24 agencies concerned with lending government funds. Thero are 34 agencies concerned with acquisi tion of land. Thero are 16 agencle? concernod with wild life preserva tion. There are 104 information and publications offices. There are 127,000 government em ployes in Washington. There are 400,000 more outside the capital, as a conservative estimate. The government buildings owned and rented in every city and state of tho Union outside the District of Colum bia are equal in capacity to fifty- two Empire State buildings in New York City—which is one thousand fifty foot high. Every dollar of rent, every dollar spent on care of these offices, and every clerk and official is based on some act of congress. The amount of saving the President could make by executive orders abolishing emergency bureaus is described as small in contrast to the growth of government expense by congressional acts. What I fear is that in the wild scramble for real or alleged econ omy, congress will make cuts here and there nnd leave the government establishment in tlio same scattered and unbusinesslike form.e Wentorn Newspaper Union. 'Twas This Way • • B y L Y L E SP E N C E R с Weitem New.naper Union. The Discovory of Insulin O NLY fifteen years ago, anyone who fell sick with diabetes was almost as good as dead. Doctors knew that diabetes occurred when n person had too much sugar in his blood. They also knew that the pres ence of sugar was duo to an im properly functioning pancreas. But no one knew how to correct the situation. Along about 1020, an inex perienced young doctor named Ban ting was struggling to get estab lished in London, Ontario. An ex- farmer boy and a war veteran. Ban ting knew practically nothing about scientific research, but he did have one brilliant idea. If the pancreas produces life-sav ing juices that prevent diabetes, Banting thought, why not isolate this precious extract from animals and give it to diabetic humans? The very thought of such a pos sibility sot him on fire. He sold his ofllce furniture and medical equip ment to get money for his living expenses in Toronto where ho could try it out. Some of the'world’s best scientists had already experimenited with Ban ting’s idea. They had failed because they lacked his determination and ingenuity. With the help oi Charles Best, a twenty-one-year-old chom- istry student. Banting experimented first upon dogs and then upon chron ic diabetic sufferers. With his treat ment, most of them made amazing recoveries. The treatment consisted of daily inoculations of his pancrea tic extract, insulin. Millions of peo ple all over the world owe their lives today to Banting’s phenomenal discovery. Ordering From French Menus ■y OU may belong to that great ■f arnjy^of people like, mysolf-who. can’t mako heads or tails out of fancy hotel menus. Words like pate do foi gras and hors d’ oavres, al ways make mo feel dumb.. Even whe.ri tho waiter asks me whether I am ordering a la carte or táble d’ hote, I never know what ho was talking about until I looked it, tip recently. Table d’ hoto is a French.phrase literally meaning table of the host or landlord. Up until the middle of tho Eighteenth century, restaurants and hotels aa we kjjqw.them nqw did not existí Iri ' Euroiiër Thé ' did inns were run on sort of a family plan, whereby evoryono sat at the table of tlie host and took whatever was put before hirh. There were no menus from which one could order a la carte, which means according to tho bill of fare. No ono could pay for each dish separately, depending on what ho wanted, but had to pay for tho whole meal whether or not he liked all tho courses. Thus table d'hote came to mean a complete meal served in courses at regular hours for a fixed price, A la carte and other such phrases were added by chefs who wanted to give an impressive air to their res taurant, They can now buy books with all the French and Italian phrases written out, and often use them without, knowing what they mean. But when you get in a tight spot over one of them, you can al ways tell tho waiter to ‘‘Bring me an order of bacon and eggs.” They know what that means in any lan guage. And then, as a final touch, you might add, “Sprinkled with par sley.” .The Royal Game of Golf CHARLES I of England played golf near the Tower of London while waiting for his executioner to get Iiis axe sharpened. Royalty and notables of all kinds have played the ancient game at least since 1400 and perhaps much earlier. But golf has become a popular sport only in the last 30 years. The invention of the rubber-cored ball about 1000 is the reason for its rise in popularity. Before that, play ers had used little leather balls stuffed with feathers and later the gutta-percha ball, Gc’.f played with the gut ball was no game for the ordinary dub. When hard and well hit by the profession al, it might possibly go 200 yards, but the amateur was lucky if he could get 150. Under those condi tions, what fun was it, to push a little white pellet around with a knobbed stick? The India-rubber ball introduced something new. The dub could get 200 yards and maybe more. With the new ball, second and third-rate players could score as well as many professionals had be fore. 'rhat was what the game need ed. Tlie first 18-hole course in Amer ica was not built until 1893. By 1916,' there were 742 courses, and this number balloned to 1903 in 1923 and 585Q in 1930.

Have they been scrapped, be cause of no effort on our part to further their becoming realities? Are we aware of this scrapping? Or do we still vaguely suspect they will materialize or be fulfilled just becuse we think of them with desire? Action Essential. Most of us remember the Ma- cawberism “Name a wish and gratify it,’ There have to be things set in motion before a wish can come to fruition. Unless we actu ally want a thing enough to try to get it, we cannot want it very muoh. Our New Year wishes if they are to be fulfilled should be more than thought-seeds by now. They should have been planted and tended and perhaps have be gun to show tiny sprouts. Diversity.

It has always been our opinion that the farmer and the laborlng man' ho. prodiiQo the vast wealth of this nation should be ehlltled, to some of the u»„,^lw.Ywi<w..and advantages offered to the busi ness and professionfil classes. Why should not a farmer or a day laborer who ffivcs eight to twelve hours a day to honest muscular ef fort In the pursuit of his cailing riot be en titled to sufficient returns as to enable him to send hia children to college, enjoy the lux uries of home life, and support his family in comfort the same aa the fcUow who holds a position as bookkeeper, buBiness manager, lawyer, manufacturer, doctor or preacher? But it should be remembered' that millions of those down-and-outs, described by the pre sident in his inaugural address, aré in that condition largely because of pure “cuased- nesa” in that they simply are too lazy to work for a living. These deserve little sympathy becauae of their conditions. The fellow that we should really endeavor to give a square deal is the farmer and the laborer who is really putting out, but who due to our econo mic system of things is not able to accumulate enough returns from 'his labor to live In rea sonable comfort and, educate his children. We should draw the line between this class and the shiftless, indolent, lazy and' good-for- nothing class not willing to .work for a living. -------------------------0-^—------------------- “YOU’KE A BETTER MAN THAN I AIVI, ,i,.

It has always been our opinion that tho farmer and 111 i * the laboring: man'ho, i>rbduce the vast wealth ' of this nation should be eh'.itled to some of the li»vi.*ilfi,«;.and advantages offered to She busi- and professional classes. Why Hhould not n fnrifler or n rffiy InlHirnr who gives eight to twelve hours a day to honest muscular ef fort in the pursuit, of his calling not be sn> titled to sufficient returns as to enable him to send hia children to college, enjoy the lux uries of home life, and support his family in comfort the same as the fellow who holds a position as bookkeeper, business manager, lawyer, manufacturer, doctor or preacher? But it should be remembered that millions of those down-and-outs, described by the pre sident in his inaugural address, are in that condition largely because of pure “cussed- ncss” in that they simply are too lazy to ¡work for a-living.- Th^ese dcsorva little aympathy bccause of their conditions. The fellow that we should really endeavor to give a square deal is the farmer and the laborei who is really putting out, but who duo to our econo mic system of tilings is not able to accumulate enough returns from :his labor to'live in rea sonable comfort and. educate his children. We should draw the line between this class and tho shiftless, indolent, lazy and' good-for- nothing class not willing to .work for a living. , , ---------------------------------------------------- “YOU’RE A BETTER MAN THAN I AM, iv.

A ICedarbvook, Nciw Jersey, housewife had been accused of infidelity by her husband and the “boy friend” in the case лмаз a man by tho name of Charles Lombardo. After the evi- dcace was in, Judge 'Ncutze called Lombardo .before him and asked; )■ '-ilow old are you?” 'Л cracked and squeaky little voice piped out: “I am 85 years old.” . • "Ca^-e dismissed,” announced the judge, and turning to the husband who had charged his wife iwith infidelity with 85 year old Lombar do, said: . ' ' . "I’d advise you to read Gunga Din." Loubtless the judjre did not кпо-л» about our own "i'apu”' uughes of New Bern, N.

In most instances these roiads are now next to impassable. In some sections schools have been forced to close be cause the busses can’t get over the roads. This is no fault of the state highway authorities. They lare doing the best they can under pre sent conditions, but what can they do 'Wheni automobiles and trucks and heavily laden school busses are continually passing, cutting great ruts into the rain soaked ground. The only thing to be .done is Co cover the ground over with some kind of material that will not get wet. In other words, we shall have to hardsurface these roads. It will cost, of course, but conditions have made it imperative that we do it. We can’t stop business. We can’t stop trafific. We can’t stop our schools. The pre sent General Assembly should see well to our secondary highway system. -0 - FEBRUARY FOR PLANNING January is about to make its exit to be suc ceeded by brief little “Feb,” this yoar having only twenty-eight days. ’ And then March will be here, the month when farmers will start plowing and' otherwise preparing for their 1937 crops., February passes rapidly, and usually her last days display numerous early spring flowers, butter-cups, jonquils, golden- bells land violets. February is a good month in» which' to plant trees and shrubs. In this vicinity trees planted later than March 1st are , not likoly to do well, Siive during exceptional s«;afiona. -! February is also a good month for farnujjrs to start making repairs on fiarni tools, fenpes.'. and such like. It is also a splendid , month, for prunning fruit trees. But above , everything else February should be the month ■ ,for;rlaying plans and scheduling work for the . toiyng spring and summer.

Some of these routes are becom ing next to impassable. A condition of this sort has a very definite influence not only upon the lives of rural fldults' .who must use these roads, good' or bad. but upon the operation of the conaoli- dated schools. “ The costs of keeping up soil roads mounts up very fast, owing to the continued and con stant necessity of repeating the treatment given. Hence, it would seem to be advisable for the State to concentrate on a program de signed to give the most important of these /oads la more permanent type of treatment. Especially should this be done on the main school bus routes, since these vehicles are 'heavy, are designed to cut up aoil roads in rainy weather, and yet must mviintain regu lar scheuuies for eurht months of uie - The Winston-Salem ‘Journal. ----------------------------------------------:------- MORE SINNED AGAINST THAN SINNING There is probably less substantively wrong with the ub.senteo ballot law than many of its opponents will admit.

Until long after my clocii struck twelve I tossed and turned. I kept living over agnln that walk down to the Spinney. Finally I drifted oft to sleep. I had told Sarah to walto me at ton. Just as the old clock In the hall lifted its silvery voice to an nounce the hour, she appeared with the tray.“It’s a beautiful day, Mrs. Av ery,” she told me. “I hope you’ve rested well.”"1 did Sarah, I feel much bet ter. You look bettor too, Sarah.” Oh I do feel better, Mrs. Av- I began to feel better the moment I told Mr. O’Brien what was on my mind.” "How’s Bessie feehng?” Sarah hesitated.I looked at her inquiringly. Sar ah said nothing. I continued to look at her inquiringly. "Well, I don’t know quite how to describe it, Mrs. Avery. But Bessie doesn't seem to get over the shook the way you and I havo. I don't think she closed her eyes all Saturday night. "It’s not surprising,” I com mented. "Do you think It would do any good if I had a talk with Bessie?”Sarah meditated. "Maybe I’d wait a little, Mrs. Avery. If she Doctor Geary would give her something that would make her sleep.""All right, Sarah, we’ll wait a day. Is Sylvia up?”Sarah smiled the charming, in dulgent smile which any mention of Sylvia always spemed to evoke In her. "Oh yos, she was up at eight with Dorinda Belle, all dressed up In a clean dress. They had, breakfast together. Sylvia'and Nancy Burton aro playhig at he Merry Mere now.” "And Mr. Ilopestill?" "He had breaicfast with Sylvia nnd then he left in his runabout.

This morning I’m sitting in my office wlien in gallops Tony j and his brother Frardt. Frank's brought him in by the scruff of the neck. It seems that Tony hadn't told the whole truth about his talk, witii Ace Friday morning. Tony was In a jam. He wanted his money and he wanted It quick. He told Ace he had to havo that three hundred dollars that night. Ho j wasn't going to take no for an an- | swer and he didn’t mean maybe, j I find out that Ace has overdrawn his account. They said if wasn’t the first time he'd done it. Ace has been sailing pretty close to the wind for a long time. Tony knows all this. . He makes Ace realize that his 'situation is pretty tough. Ace tells him to meet him in the Spinney that night at half past ten and that he’d havo the money for him. Tony was prompt at the api pointment and so was Ace. Ace pays him three hundred dollars in cash, settling the account in full. Tony swears that the tali: was pleasant and he says the whole transaction didn’t take more than five minutes. He said, ‘When I got the three hundred smackers in my list, I scrammed!’ Tony drove over to tho Head in his car and drove back. Tim saw him come and go, but naturally he didn’t stop him. ■ After all nobody knew a murder was. going to be committed.” "And so you arrested him!” 1 put in. "Yes. As a material witness for the present. It seemed to me the next step in the game. And It’ll give , tho papers something to chew on. I still don’t think Tony did it.

And then—a little help lessly—as fast as they asked me I told the others that she was coming and to come too if they wanted. I knew I'd got to go through all this and I thought tho sooner I got it over with the bet ter. Very soon after dinner, people began to appear. It was more like a funeral than nny gathering that has ever been held in my home, except my husbaud's fu neral.

I tliink they’ve stayed there ever since. I think, Mrs. Avery—” An amused smile lightened Sarah’s look faintly for a moment, "—that they think they’re going to discover something.” ‘I iiope they will,” I exclaimed fervently. It was n beautiful day—dew- drenched, sun-washed and breeze- riddled. My spirits arose at the mere look of the world. I dressed went downstairs, breakfasted, and went out onto the piazza. Sarah brought me tho morning paper, "Oh how that garden of mine looks!” I commented idly. "I’ll do some weeding the moment I’ve read the news.” "There’s a lot about the case, Mrs. Avery,” Sarah told me. "But nothing of the least importance. They've arrested every tramp for miles around but they’ve all had alibis. There’s a list of everybody who lives on the Head—maids and all. They printed my name,” It was true that there was noth ing in the paper which added to one’s Icnowledge of the case, but I read conscientiously both Sun day's and Monday’s account. I noted that the pictures of my house were all taken at the wrong angle and that I was described as a lead er of the "older and more conserv ative set in Satuit.” With the first impulse toward normal action that I had known since Saturday, I went into the flower-room, in which I kept my gardening implements; collected my big basket, my gar dening tools, my gloves. At that precise instant, Patrick O'Brien's cnr curved into the drive. With a sigh I put the garden para phernalia back into its place, re turned to the piazza.

"I rcmem^ her everybody was heartbroken be cause we didn’t have a full moon.” 'He says that Ace was waiting for somebody else. ‘Perhaps he owed somebody else money’ is To ny's natural explanation. Tony said that when he left Ace, instead of keeping to the path, he took a short cut through the trees and jumped over your stone wall. But just as ho started into the brush, some thing—lie wasn’t quite clear what— made him turn and look back. And there was a woman coming around the path from the direction of the Little House in Ace's direction.” "Who was she?” I demanded breathlessly. "Tony didn’t know.” “You mean she was a stranger to him?” "He doesn’t know whether she was a stranger or his best friend. He couldn’t see her face. She didn't come under tho moonlight. She kept under the trees.” "And you’re sure no woman left tlie party?” "Nobody, man or woman, so far as we know but Ace himself, who—as you know—Tim Dolan saw and spoke to, and Molly , Eames and Walter Treadway who got into Molly's car and drove off. And then Bessie at about twelve. Bes sie's alibi is pretty good—if, as Joe Geary sap, Ace was murdered be fore twelve.” "Looks to me,” Patrick wont on, "as though it was some woman on the Head. I don't mean that a woman committed the ■ crime—but that the woman Tony saw lived here!” "A woman could have walked over the causeway to the Head," pointed out. "Some do every day.” “I think one ot the boys would havo seen her,” Patrick answered, “unless she came in the day some time and hid somewhere until night. For the time being, I’m as- .suming that she lived on the Head. Let’s go over the list of people here. Got a big piece of paper, Mary? I’d like to draw a map." I found an uncreased sheet of brown paper. I brought a pencil and an eraser. I cleared a big ta ble and we sat down to it. "Now we’ll start here with the Stow house,” Patrick said, drawing a square at the left near the bot tom of the paper. “Everything sewed up there as far as I and six cops can sew it up.” "Let's go up the nill,” I put in. "Hero are the Brays and the Genrys.” I drew two squares close together. "All four accounted for." “Now wo come to the Marden house.” Patrick added a square. "Both there!” Patrick ticked them off.

Meyer is a dealer in scrap metals, and he travels all over the con tinent buying and selling the stuff. Sometimes business is good, nnd sometimes it’s bad.' It was bad in September, 1928, when Meyor ar rived in the little town ot Madden, North Dakota. Meyer was broke, and he was hungry, so he walked into a little Jewish restauro^ and asked tho proprietor to stalto him to a meal. Moyer got tho meal, and while ho was eating it a man walked In and asked the proprietor'M ho know anybody who was familiar with the Jewish prayers for tho dead. The proprietor scratohed his head. "Maybe that fellow does,” he said. And he pointed io Meyer. Yes, M cycr Knew tho P rayers. Moyer said he did. The man said his name was Berstein. Hia father had just died and he wanted someone to sit up all night and pray according to Jewish custom. He offered to pay Moyer woll if ho would come to his house at eight o’clock that evening and perform that offlco. Meyer agreed. At eight o’clock he arrived at Berstein’s house and was met by his family. They showed him into the room where the cofiln was, and as Meyer looked nt the dead man he remembers think ing that it seemed as if he were just taking a nap, so lifclilce were hii features. About cloven o’clock, tho family departed, and Meyor .was left alone with tho corpse. There лvas a desk near tho coffin with a lelephono on it. Also thoro was some fruit and a bottle of whisky whicli (lie icindly Mrs. Berstein had loft for him. Meyur sai down and waitou. Dead M an’s Hand Sticking Out. About midnight tho telephone rang.

Moyer told him he couldn’t do it. Tho heater was in tho cellar, nnd he couldn’t leave the corpse alone. But ho offered to step into tho kitchen and turn on the hot water. Thnt would keep tho boiler from exploding until someone arrived to shut it off. "About flfty feet from tho house,” says Meyor, "ran the Wabash railroad. As I went into tho kitchen to turn on the water, a freight train started going by. The whole building shook and vibrated, pnd tho coffin, being on rollers, shook and rocked, too. As I returned from the kitchen I noticed the DEAD MAN’S HAND STICKING OUT OF THE COFFIN.” " Meyer didn’t like thtf looks of thhigs. Maybo It was only the vibration—but how coiild vibration mako a dead man’s hand reach upward and out of its соШп? lie remembered how lifelike tiic corpse had looked when ho ilrst viewed it, and his imagina tion began working overtimo. Ho went over to tho dosit and took a good drink of whisky from the bottle Mrs. Berstein had left him. Then, still shaking like a leaf, ho лvcnt over and put tho ha)Sd back in tho coffin. Ho Was Grabbed by tho “Corpse.” Tiie ta.sk unnerved him completely. "I was still trembling,” ho says, "and I went over to where the whisliy was and finished the whole bottle. By the time it was gone I was a little unsteady on my feet, so I decided to say tho prayers while sitting down. I pulled a chair over to the coffln. Eight then and there my stomach took a turn nnd 1 felt my heart sticking in my throat. For tho dead man was trying, to get up out of tho box, and his glassy eyes were looking straiglit at me”^ All at once, Meyer's senses left him. "I staggered toward the' box,” he says, "and without realizing what I was doing, I tried to push him back in again.^ HE GRABBED ME BY THE NECK and hand and began motioning to me to take him out. I felt my kneeb giving way, and I was trying hard not to lose consciousness. For a full minute J didn’t know what to do. Then I realized that the man was not dead." After that, Moyer’s wits camo bade to him. He took the man out of the coffln and sat him down on the ooiiui.i "Ho tried to say something,” Meyer writes, “but he couldn’t open his mouth. Finally 1 realized, that he was pointing to the empty bottle on tho desk and I understood that ho wanted some water. I squeezed some orange juice into a glass, and using a dull knife to pry his mouth open, I poured the juice down his throat and made liim lie down on the couch.” Train Shook Him Out of Coma. When the relatives came in, they began to scream and faint, nnfl Meyer had a tough job getting them calmed down. He found out then that the man had been in a coma for nine weeks and the doctors had finally pronounced him dead. Later, Meyer talked to a doctor who was interested in the case, and when ho told about the train that wont by, shaking the coffln, the doctor said it was that vibration which had probably brought the sick man back to consciousness. Meyer nays that the old man's son gave him a job in iiis store, but he had to quit it. He got tired of having people come from all over the countryside asking him to tell the story over and over again until it almost droye him crazy. About four years ago, when he was in the neighborhood, he went to see the old man, and found him in the best ot health nfid planning a trip to Palestine.©-rWNU Sorvlco.

Irregular Spelling Centuries ago countless books, manuscripts and personal loiters, owing to irregular spelling, almost required an expert to decipher them,, states a writer in Collier’s Weekly.

From recorded documents, it has boon found that the members of one famous family spelled tlieirs, Malnwaring, in 131 different ways.

Tho fashion 'plates are lovelj', with their quaint dresses, with oversldrts, ba^iques, |redin- gotes, polonaises, and dolmans, with trimminA's of rufflos, fringe, quillings, pasHemontrie, lace and braiding. The hats and bonnets werO very small, but covered with feathers and flowers, and tlie head-dresses were very eUvborate, with puffs in front, and long curls in the hack. Some of the descriptions of the colored plates give an idea of the costumes of that period, -as follows: "Carri age dress, made of black silk, the skii^; triTnmed with a plaited ruffle, 'headed by ‘puffs, divided by ruches, black velvet polonaise with basque in front, trimmed up tho front with handsome but tons, black velvet hojinet, trim med with black lace, pink roses and feathers.” But there are so many other intersting things in those quaint books, such as short .stories, poem.s, recipes, all kinds of. household hints, g'ai'donin.fr note's, arc/hiteqts' designs of homes, from a sm'all cottage to a huge mansion. There are book reviews, “The Hoosier School master,” by Edward Eggleston, several of Marion Harland’s no vels, and “The Pathfinder,” by J. Fenimore Cooper, being among those off the press in 1872, The advertisements are very unique, and among these a>ro set forth the wonders of two weJl-known sewing-machines: 'Wheeler' and Wilson, and The Domestic. A liealDh department gives advice to .both sick and well, and a ju venile column furnishes games and puzzles for the children. There are frequent notes on Was'hiiVgton Society, the Presi dent of the Un/ted States then being U. S. Grant. At one of the White House receptions, the Pre- .sidfciit’s wife’s costume was des cribed as being “a crimson silK, trained and trimmed with rii5i black lace, a black lace, fichu a- r iiind her shoulderr. and coral jo. weJry.” There are various news notes and comments from other Ijeriodicals, some being favorable press notice of Godcy’s oBok.
