Poor liO’s Revival.
S ANTA MONICA, CALIF.—
Despite the blessings of
civilization which we have be
stowed upon them, including
diseases, whisky, soda pop, and
$2 overalls, the Am erican In
dians are increasing.
TJiis should give our red brothers
cause for worry. Suppose they got
so numerous that
we gave this coun
try bock to them?
Already we are in
debted to these orig
inal inhabitants for
q u in in e, cocaine,
co tto n, chocolate,
to b acco , corn,
b e a n s , squashes
pumpkins, grape-
iruit, Jiuckleberries
and hundreds of oth
er remedial drugs
or foodstuffs. More
over, an eminent autliority says the
curative methods of, the old medi
cine man had values which in many
respects excelled what the white
man has produced and suggests oOir
__scientists .miglit well adopt certain
aspects of the aborigine’s plan.
What if we did that very thing and
then, by tho way of exchange, invit
ed the tribesmen to take over such
trifling problems as an unbalanced
budget, our European debts, sit-
down strikes and the younger gen
eration?* • •
Cleaning up the Stage.
H AVING lost their licenses, four-
teen burlesque houses in New
York won’t ever get them back U
tho officials keep their word about
it.With this exemple to go by, au
thorities might next try the idea ol
cleaning up tho legitimate stage
there — the spawning - placo and
breeding ground of shows which
filthy line? and filthier scenes ore
freely offered to pop-eyed audiences
recruited from what we call pui
best families. Poisoning the moral
atmosphere ot tho theater appears
to be tho favorite sport of a new
school of dramatists who, when they
woro little boys, had their mouths
washed out with soap for using dirty
■ words, yet never got over the habit.
* • •
The Fate of Beauty Qsaens.
TUST as the weather gets warm so
^ the contestants won’t catch any
thing worse than sunburn, that out
break ot annual monotony known as
the beauty contest will stir the, popu
lace to heights of tho utmost indif
ference. There will be no dress re-
■ hearsals' beforehand. With beauly
contests, it’s the other way around.
And then when Miss Cherokee
Stripp or Miss Clear View has been
' hailed. aa Anierica’s. prlxe pnokngo’
. V of- loveliness,'' she will, if she • riltis
. . .true.itoi.iiorJXii. put ,her clothes hack, on and catch thé noxt train for Cali
fornia with tho intention of starring
in the movies.
On arrival, she will be pained to
note that none of the studio heads
is waiting at the station to sign her
up; also that practically all the star-
. ring jobs aro being held by young
ladies who, in addition to good looks,
have that desirable little thing
cailcd personality. And next fall
she’ll be dealing ’em off the arm in
a Hollywood hashery.

International Sllckcrs.
D UMORS persist that the United
States, . Great Britain and
Prance are preparing for eventual
agreements on monetary stabiliza
tion, tariff and trade adjustments,
price-fixing of essential commodi
ties—and, believe it or not, brethren
and sistren—a settlement of tho de
faulted foreign debts owed to us.
Maybe it’s significant—or, if you
want to be broadminded and char-
itable'about it, merely a coincidence
—that every dispatch from Euro
pean sources on this matter lists the
debts last. And, verily I say unto
_you,-thsiis-ggaeny tviitn and wimre-
they will come—last.
I seem to see the big three gath
ered at the council table for the
final session and La Belle France
moving that, everything else having
been arranged to the satisfaction of
the majority present and the hour
being late, the detail of those debts
be put over to some future date.
John Bull seconds the motion. Mo
tion carried by a vote of 2 to 1, Uncle
Sam being feebly recorded in the
negative.* * •
A Sense of Humor.
PJAMON RUNYON, who, being
wise, should know bettor, re
opens the issue of whether^ many
people have a sense of humor. This
provokes somebody to inquire what
is humor, anyhow?
I stand by this definition: Humor
is tragedy standing on its head with
its pants torn.
Lois of folks thinJi' a sense of )ni-
mor is predicated on the ability to
laugh at other folks, which is wrong.
A real sense of humor is based on
our ability to laugh at ourselves.
You liave to sny, not as Puck did,
"What fools tliese mortals be," but,
“What fonls we mortals be.”
That's why few women have a true
sense of humor. Usually a woman,
even a witty woman, takes herself
KO seriously, sho can never regard
herself unseriously. ,

Washington.—J. P. Morgan and
company and other great banking
firms, which in the past have mar
keted huge amounts of foreign bonds
to American investors, may never
see the return of the “good old
days.” The business hasn’t been so
good for somo years, now—not since
tho depression began, and default
ing by so many foreign govern
ments developed. Also it has been
handicapped sharply by the Hiram
Johnson law, which prevents mar-
iieting in tliis country of bonds of
ony government that has defaulted
on its debts to the United States
government.
But—many hankers liave thought
all this would pass. It was just
temporory. Some day something
would bo done about the war debts.
There would be "settlements” or
forgiveness, or both. Whereupon tho
business would go baclt to normal.
But for some time tRe securities
and exchange commission has had a
flshy eye on those prospects for an
other day of foreign Ijond selling,
nnd an even fishier eye is being
cast by many members of the house
and senate.
The most recent gesture in this di
rection was made by Senator Allen
J. Eilender of Louisiana, Who in
troduced a bill which is receiving
so much quiet support that it seems
a practical certainty something like
ii will bo passed, sooner or later.
There is no hurry. Americans have
not quite recovered from the burn
ing they took on the defaulted for
eign bonds. As a matter of fact, the
average investor thinks that partic
ular debacle wos worse than i t
was, which attitude is most dis
couraging to would-be bond' sales
men for foreign issues.
The Eilender bill would add a now
section to' the securities act making
it unlawful to sell in tho United
States securities issued by a foreign
government unless the not proceeds
derived from such securities by the
issuing government are equal to
the par value of the securities, ex
cept that the securities commission
may allow a service charge of not
to exceed two per cent of the par
value to bo deducted from the pro
ceeds to be received by tho govern
ment soiling tho bonds.
Enormous Profits ^
"The purpose oi the bill,” Ivlr.
Eilender explains, “is to reduce the
spread between the price paid to
foreign governments, , for, their
bonds and the price Vat which such
bonds are offered to the public. A
foreign bond for which tho Issuing
government receives eiglity-oight
per cent of its face value may now
be sold on the American market
for ninety-nine. The investing public
la led to believe that it is getting
a bargain since tlio sale price is
still below par. Tho underwriters
receive enormous proflls. It is be
lieved thut such a situation leads
to nn.unwarranted amount of for
eign financing in this country nnd
encouragos unhealthy practices in
tlio conduct of such financing.
"Under the proposed bill the gov
ernment would receive face value
for its bonds, leas the service charge
allowed by the commission, which
could, not for this purpose exceed
two per cent. Thus the profits of
the underwriters could be excessive
only if the bonds were offered to
the public at a price above par. It is
tolt thnt this fact would tend to
rcducc tho large price spread now
possible and load to more careful
consideration of the value of such
bonds by the investing public,”
No allowonci?. is per.-nitted in the
bill "for tha assumption of rislcs
or for the value of the trade name
or good will of the persons render
ing such service” — which seems
rather unnecessary in view of the
fact that tho total "service charge”
permitted is to be two per cent.
The bond salesman seems to qual
ify as the Vanishing American!
Irks Air Officials
The race between bigger and
heavier airplanes and the larger,
better, surfaced airports that the
new planes require is bringing gray
hairs to aviation officials. It seems
a natural enough development, but
it has plenty of complications. It
is somewhat like the older story of
tho production of armor which will
resist a shell from any existing gun
then a bigger gun that will pi^-cci
it, and then thicker and tou*er
armor—and then repeat!
Perhaps an apter comparison is
whether to build bigger locks at
the Panama canal, or build tlie big
new ships according to freak speci
fications so they may still go
through.
The difficulty in this race be
tween airplanes and airports lies
in the answer to the question: Who
wili finanoo the bigger airports?
American cities have already in-
, vested more than $400,000,000 in air
ports. 'They have about got to the
end of their wiliingnos#! to spend, it
appears, and many are threatening to stop pnying the bills.
Both airplanes and airports must
bo approved for interstate com
merce by the bureau of air com
merce. This body now approv»
seme pliines which could not v/iiii
its approval, land at many airport
So there is serious discussion ni
an idea to regulate for two or thts I
years the size and design of ccrl
tain classes of airplanes wIiHq .1 I
airports catch up to requiremem.l
Ntttutally this results It, ijJJI
wails from the airplane innnutac l
turers. Also from many oporalin.l
companies. The proposed actio« I
both say, would place them in J
strait-jacket, arrest their tloveloili
ment, hold America back while th|l
rest of the world rnarclies on |gl
new efficiency in aviation. *
So Fred Fogg, new director ,iq
the re-organized bureau ol air coinJ merce, discovers that his prejt!|
ces.sor. Gene Vida, did not liavj
such a bed of roses.
Airport Needs
Most airports need longer ruri.|
wayfe for heavy ships that lly
and at flatter angles in tiio approach!
and takeoff. They need hard sur-|
faces for increasing loads, ospccial.|
ly as all weather schedules increasj
with better aids to flight. And cquaJ
ly costly is the purchase of 0 ^ 1
tional land to clear obstacles arounjl
tho edges of the fields, and to pto.1
vide radio beam approacii lanes. I
Tiio American Municipal associa.|
tion has taken up the cinlgels iii|
defense of the 200 odd cities wlilc|||
maintain established air route teJ
minals, claiming the expense (oil
the needed improvement,s is wl
justified, for tho traffic is mosllJ
interstate commerce.
Tho operators not only resent ihJ
proposed limitation on airplane ilt^l sign, but state emphatically
they will not pay for airport ь|
provements. Their mail income hiJ
been cut, they point out, and tlieJ
passenger rates have been forcii|
down.
So Uncle Sam is to bo cailcd (
to foot the bill. Secretary ot Ihil
Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., til
tho contrary notwithstandin!;. ¿I
ready two bills are in tlie happ!i|
providing for just tliat.
Already about $76,000,000 liai|
come out of the federal troasuij
as a contribution to the country')!
2,700 - airports, through C. \V, A,I
F. E.,,R. A., W. P. A. and n iiti
through P. W. A. But Unit is oiilJ
a fraction of thci investment by Itif
individual cities, which tlie air I
reau calculates at nearly hail 1
billion dollars. Half a doKcn clfe|
havo spent more than
each for their airports. Wiicrcai
much of the federal eontributio
due to tho fact that the chief go
was job making, was very ineffi
cientiy expended.
President Wins
If President Roosovelt wins on
idea of having congress grunt thi
Chief Executive the right to cut №|
teen per cent from any appropri;
tion—instead of tho ton per centj
horizontal cut favored by many
ators—his hold on congress tliroui
the remaindqr» of this session ai
for the next year will not only
continued, ■ but, strengthened.
Tlio point ia , that tlie Presidí
will then have the discretion
ary power to cut or pare appro]
ations which vitally afl'ect ever
state and every congressionul dis
trict in the United States—in sliotl,
to help or hurt every individual
senator and representative in 11
ono argument each likes most
make-—that he "brings liomc ifc
bacon” for his conaUtuents.
This is vital in view of the pri
bility that the President will sultd
severe reverses in two of his Ir
portant fights-for Supreme ci
enlargement and for government
organization.
Tho tide 6f battle ebbs nnd to
on tho court proposition, but it
almost a certainty as this is wrltl
that the President will not get tti
six additional justicet, he has asW
ÍOÍ) and which he has repcatoor
indicated he will insist upnn. í
it looks now he will bo luclcy to Si
twc, additional justicca. It is
possible he will not get any.
This does not mean that his mal
objective will not be achieved,
there is practically no doubt Ш;
the majority of the hjgh court
be “liberal” within a year. But'
will be "liberalized” in part by n
tiremcnts.'It will not be llbnrnlizi
by enlargement to as many as w
teen justices.
Would Mean Loss of Face
But the question of presidenllj
prestige ia something else again,
the President does not get six a®
tional justices, it will mean a ce
tain loss of face.' It will be the
severe defeat he has taken s№
he was elected governor of M
York in 1028. Critics may point
his defeat by the senate on '
World court and on the St. W'
renco seaway, but neither of t'’"
was considered an imporliinl '
versal for the President on C.ipi
Hill. Congressmen are poi'to'
aware of the special condiiions
plying to those fights. Aird tbcy j;
ло1 regard overriding his veto оГ'"
bonus bill ns .a sign of wcnltnf
at the Wiiite House. In fact, fMOS
them think ho could have сЬв№
that result if he had applied sui
dent pressure.On the theory that insurgency
like a snowball—tends to groff
advancement—it is rather imP
tant, therefore, for the Presiden,
have some increase in his aW
to put pressure on congress
ho suffer reverses in the Sui>‘-

O NE June day 20 years
ago a force of khaki-

N walked up the
cangplEink of a ship that was
all ready to start on a trip
acro-ss the Atlantic. The day
j ,vas June 14, 1917—a shigu- I larly appropriate day for
tlieir departure. For Jt^ne 14
is Flag day and these soldiers’

ate, also, if their departure
had been the occasion for a
great patriotic celebration.
But it wasn’t. Modern w ars
aren’t conducted like that—
with the blare of bugles and
the roll of drum s to advertise
to your enem y that you are
launching an attack against
him. Besides, the keynote for
this departure had been
sounded less than three weeks
earlier and that keynote had
been—silence!
On the morning of May 28‘ a
little group of grave-faced men
lu civilian clothing had gathered
on these docks and very quietly,
in groups of twos and threes, had
walked up the gongplank on to
the steamship Baltic. Ship news
reporters, watching the gather
ing of the Baltic’s slim passenger
Hsl, asked no questions. Some of
tliuse news-gatherers hud been
down in the baggage roorh of the
ship. There they had seen cer
tain trunks, bags and bedding
rolls stenciled so plainly that any
one who could read could see that
this was the baggage of officers
of the regular army bound over
seas, But, at tho request of the
army, they said nothing and not
a line appeared in the nev/spa-
pprs telling v.'ho those officers
v/ore.

would be too late.
Out of the Fog.
And then one June morning
their dream of help from America
came true. That morning the
harbor of St. Nazaire was shroud
ed in mist. Its citizens knew that
out there somewhere tho blue;
gray transports and thoir cruiser
convoys were approaching the
port. Suddenly, about 7 o’clock,
a motor tender came,put-putting
through thn fog. In its prow
stood an American bluejacket.

Considering the historic impor

bo most gratifying to the patriot
ic sentiments inspired by Flag
day if thero could be recorded at
this point the great enthusiasm
with which this vanguard of Un
cle Sam’s millions woro received
at St. Nazaire and the admira
tion which they excited among
the French who welcomed them.
But as regard for historical truth
prevents painting-any such word
picture as that. In fact, just the
contrary was true—and for this
statement we have tho testimony
of an Amorican eye-witness to
the landing. Ho was Wilbur For
rest, war correspondent for tho
New York Horald Tribune, who
tells how French officers of the
general staff came to St. Nazaire
to see the arrival of thia "crack
First division of the highly-
trained American army. . . . a
historical event for both France
and America.” He continues:
“There is probably not today an

and saluted. Then he raised his
shoulders in an eloquent gesture
as much as to say "I can’t under
stand a word you’re saying, but
it’s all right—I’m glad to see yoti
anyway.” Whereupon the bliae-
jacket grinned broadly at him
and the littlo craft on which he
was standing turned hei; nose
back into the fog.As soon as tho sailor reported
back to his ship that the docks
were cleur, tugs began to ease
the transports in toward the
docks where French soldiers
warned back a group of idle spec
tators who soon gathered as the .
news of the coming of the Ameri
cans spread. Soon a big ship
loomed out of the fog, broadside
to, and was slowly warped in.
Landing stages came down with
a bang and in another moment
soldiers of Company K of tho
Twenty • eighth infantry were
streaming down them.
Within an hour the sleepy old
town of St. Nazaire was seeing
more and a stranger activity than
it had ever known before. Its
streets were filled with men in
the khaki of the American army
and the blue of the navy, glad to
be stretching their legs on land
after niore than two weeks
aboard ship. So they proceeded
to "talce” the town. They flirted
with every French girl who came
along; they squatted in the street
to stage impromptu crap games
while groups of puzzled French
men gathered around to watch
them at this strange oport; they
swarmed into shops and cafes—
especially the latter. Altogether,
they t?ave St. Nazaire sueh a
stirring up as it had not known
for centuries.

living who will not agree that tho
French officers sent from Paris
to watch the debarkation of the
division at St. Nazaire liod every
reason to suffer then'and there
a very considerable sentiment of
disappointment.
"These khaki-clad soldiers who
came ashore at St. Nazaire had
little in coirnnoa witli the Ameri
can regular army. They were for
the most pfirt lioyy who possibly
a month or so before at home
had succumbed to the war fever
and joined the army. Uniforms
had • figuratively been wrapped .
around them. Ordnance depots
' had issued them army shoes and
a hat with a cord around it, guns
were placed in their hands and
they were off for Hoboken and
jD’rance.
A Division in N am e Only.
“The First division at that time
was a division in name but not in
fact. Most of its trained officers
and men were left in the United
States to train more raw material
on this side of the water. Wliat
was first to arrive in Prance was
the vanguard of the real thing.”So after remaining in camp
outside St. Nazaire for a ' little
while, the first division was sent
to quiet ureas of eastern Franca
for Intensive training. One unit,
however, the Second battalion of
tho Sixteenth infantry, was left
beliind to give Paris evidence
that the Americans had really
reached France and tha Fourth
of July was selected as ths oc
casion for the demonstration.
Brought to Paris by train, this
battalion was quartered in bar
racks oil the outskirts of tho city
in preparation for a long march
over the boulevards.
^ On July 4 Paris turned out en
masse to see their nev/ allies
march between the lines of crack
French troops from the garrison
of Paris, drawn up alongside
the streets and boulevards. Aa
the khaki-clad columns came on,
the enthusiasm of the crowds rose
to a high pitcli. At last, they
v/ere to see for themselves these
fighting men from across the sea
who would turn the tide of war
in their favor. But again the re
alization was something less than
the anticipation. For, to quote
Mr. Forrest again:
"It must be confessed- that
those of us who watched this
uniformed ‘soldiery’ land at St.
Nazaire and wore watching them
on the Paris boulevards woro un
able to compare them at all fa
vorably with the spick and span
and rather grim troops of Eng
land and France. Many of \is
had seen the latter both in action
and on parade. Something Was
lacicing with our own com-
potriots.
"Hundreds of French officers
mingling in the crowds and who
had perhaps entertained ths
same enthusiasm the day before
were getting a psychological
shock. The writer, in civilian
clothing, was able to hear sad
and frank comment passed,
“ 'Is it that this is the Ameri«
can regular army?’ one queried^
■Mon Dieul’
“ ‘Surely these men are no!
soldiers,’ remarited another.
“ ‘If this is what . we are to
expect from America the war is
lost,’ said a third.
“They were, perhaps, right
about it then. But they also lived,
to change their minds."
“ Fightine First” Makes Gooa.
They changed their minds a
yoar later when they heard how
tlie First division captured Can-
tigny on May 18, 1018 and hold
it against all counter-attacks by
the Germans and when they

beyond the Forest of Villa Cot-
terets two of its regiments suf
fered appalling losses, leaving as
iiigh as 75 and 85 per cent of
their strength on the ground cith

gained their objectives and had
it not been for the failure of
French, Scottish and Italian divi
sions on the other side—fighting
across from Rheims to close “tho
sack”—the Crown prince’s army
would have been destroyed. ^
For th e "Fighting First”
earned the unstinted praise not
only of American and Allied gen
erals but even the enemy paid
it high tribute. In fact, through
out its career in France this di
vision lived up to its designation
as “First.” It was not only tho

condition of the cream at the

The condition of tho cream

John A. Arey, extension dairy

a farmer can do to make sure
the cream will reach the cream

Clean the udder and hands

Immediately after . milking,
take the milk from the barn and
run it through the separator
with the cream screw adjusted

Cream containing this per
centage of fat will keep in
good condition longer than if
the fat content is lower.
As soon as it is aeparated,
place the cream, in a cooling
tank filled with cold water and
keep it cool until it leaves the
farm. Use two cana, one foi*
fresh cream and one for cold
cream of previous separations.
Never pour warm cream into cold,

"We’ve got our theory, ain’t we,
(that the big discovery’s yet to be
found? This stuff that’s been turned
,1«) ain’t nothin’ but chicken feed.
iWe’ve got the richest placer claims
along the new bed of Loon creek
;*nd we’ll be lucky it they bring us
'fifty thousand dollars." McKenzie
Joe’s keen eyes swept the valley.
rThere’s a bonanza around here
iBomewhere, If we ever find that old
‘river bed. The idea’s worth keeping
to ourselves.”
' "I suppose ao. On the other hand,
■Kenning’a a geologist. It might pay
us to give him. a little information—
'«ven cut him in.”
McKeniie Joo rose and tossed the
stick away.' “Not while I’m a partner in this
shebang,” he said. Then, hesitant
ly, “I guess I’ll go eat.” ,
“You won't change your mind,
and como with us?”
“Oh, not tonight. You’ve all got
ithings to talk about.”
Hammond watched him stalk
away; It waa not his imagination,,
he told himself, which made him
feel that Joe was different. Silent,
almost morose at times; working
quietljr and without response while
.HuiiiliioriS planned enthusiastically
for tho future, when Kay would he
there and Sapphire I^alcc a city.
“Joe must bo getting old,” he
said at last, and dropping down the
step,"'hurried through tho criss-cross
of cabins and tents toward tho trail
which led to tho cottage. ^
Kay turned from a window and
strode toward him with a sv/inging
step which matched hbr outdoor
clothing,
“You old dear!" she exclaimed.
“I thought I’d better hurry back,”,
Hammond ■ explained buoyontly.
“Just to be sure you were really
hero.”"If your ears rang like mine,
you’d know we were htre,” broke in
Mrs. Joyce. “Sitting cooped up in
that airplane for I don’t know how
many hours 1” She sat cross-legged
on one of the two bunidike beds,
poking a cigarette into a long, green
holder. Kay cut in.
“Can you imagine," she asked,
as she came close to Jack, and'
with a maternal manner, straight
ened liis tie. Only her close-fitting
jersey Imprisoned her full breasts;
they touched Hammond’s arm,
yielding Boxlly to pressure. “We
hardly paused all the way here
. Irom Vancouver.”
Hammond barely heard her; his
blood was Dtinging in his veins.
“Good thing we didn’t have to
turn back when we got here,”
growled Timmy, from his sprawled
position on a rough chair, "We’d
have been in a hell of a fix if this
lake had been irozea over.”
“But it wasn’t frozen, Thiekwit,”
Kay jibed. She turned from Ham
mond and leaned over the back of
Timmy’s chair. Slie tweaked the
pilot’s nose. “Always the cheerful
little earful! He’s had us smashed
up a dozen times since we started.”
“Well, who wouldn’t be careful?
Finding a place that hardly exists
in a crate like that old boat of mine.
A fellow’s got to think of his re
sponsibilities.”
“How many stops did you make
getting here?” Jack’asked.
“Only a couple,” Kay volun
teered. “Once at Stewart lake for
gas and for Timmy to study hij
maps. Then again at Fourcross.”
Jack whistled.
“You moved right along.”
Mrs, Joyce regarded her ciga
rette holder.
“That’s what happens when a girl
really wants to seo a man,” s!ie
observed calmly. H am m ond
laughed and could think of nothing
to say. Kay crossed the room and
dropped into a chair.
“Now that it’s over, I’m tired.”
Then she added, “Couldn’t we havo
dinner served up here?”
Hammond shook his head.
“Nothing like that. It’s a matter
of getting it when tho cook’s will
ing. I’ll have things organized for
you in a day or two—I’ve got a lino
on a woman who can come here and
do the work for you.”
“Wonderful,” said Mrs. Joyce,
with her usual lack of expression.
“And in the meanwhile,” an
nounced Timmy,. “we’ll eat at the
Quick and Dirty and like it.”
“When?” asked Mrs. Joyce.
“We’re waiting for Bruce Ken
ning, Mother.”“As usual; we’ve waited for him
for ten years.”“Yes—father always said he was
the latest thing in mining men.”
Hammond laughed louder than
anyone at that. Jokes had been
•few for him ih these long weeks of
waiting.
Bruce Kenning was coming in the
door. After that, tho conversation
became jumbled; so m"ch to be
gone over again, calls for food from
Timmy Moon, monosyllabic cut-ins
by Mrs. Joyce, questions to be re
answered about the trip. But at last
they were down the hill and at the
crude doorway of the Slumgullion.
For a moment a queer feeling of
trepidation shot through Jack Ham
mond. For the first time, he won
dered what Kay would think of
these crude surroundings which she
would find on every side, the lack
of comforts of civilization. But tlie
answer came almost as soon as his
mental question. Kay had tipped
her blonde head and glanced about
lier at the sloping log building, with
its glassless windows of mosquito
netting, its faint illumination of two
“The Idea’s Worth Keeping to
Ourselves.’'
ancient oil lamps, its vague fornis,
seated at rough tables, dimly dis
cernible through the netted door,
“Isn’t it cutel” she exclaimed.
"Just like a movie set. Look, Moth
er, it’s simply gorgeous!” •
“Gorgeous is hardly the word,”
came the acidulous rejoinder from
the angular Mrs. Joyce.
“Well,” Hammond laughed with
relief, “at least it’s unique. Set
this down in the main street of an
American city and you’d have a
crowd around It in five minutes.”
Suddenly he drew back. “Oh, Йау!”
“Yes,” she turned from the door.
“Here's someone I’d like you to
meet.”
Jeanne Towers was approaching,
also headed for the restaurant. She
hesitated as she noticed the little
throng In front of the doorway, but
Hammond called her forward.
“Jeanne,” he said, “here are my
friends from Seattle. Kay, this is
Jearaie Towers, ftcmcmbcr I wrole
you about lier?"
“Of course.” The Seattle girl ex
tended her hand, a long-armed ges
ture—Jeanne Towers accepted it,
hesitantly. They smiled and ex
changed greetings; suddenly Jack
felt ill at ease and wondered why
Jeanne Towers should be apologiz
ing for her appearance. After all,
they were the clothes she always
wore. As for Kay, she had said
nothing but pleasantries which,
some way, seemed unpleasant. Jack
Hammond could not understand it.
He hurried to tho other introduc
tions. ’rhen: “Won’t you join us?”
he asked. Jeanne drew back.
“No—no, thanlcs,” slie evaded.
"I’m just going to have a bite. I’ve
got to get back to the store.”
Jeanne sought the farthest corner.
A Chinese waiter approached, rub
bing his hands on a dirty apron.
“Glaying fiish, lainbow fiish, deer
steak, blare steak,” he announced
"Lay off the bear steak,” Bruce
Kenning warned. “It's tougher than
old siioes.''
"And don't ask about the vege
tables,” Hammond interjected
"They’re all desiccated and—”
"'faste awful,” announced Timmy
“I want venison.”
"Let’s all have venison," Kay
suggested, and with the order giv
en, leaned back on the bench, her
hands behind her. “The idea of
being snooty about a venison
steak,"
"What I’d like right now,” said
Timmy Moon, “is a шее, juicy
grubstake, so I could buy another
'plane and make a lot of money out
of flying supplies into this coun
try.”Kay flaunted a hand.
“I’ll grubstake you,” she said,
"as soon as I make my first mil
lion.” Then she half turned, at a
nudge from Mrs. Joyce. Her eyes
swept the restaurant, pausing at in>
tervals in a stare of appraisal.
Hammond followed her gaze, know
ing at what she looked and wonder
ing as to tiie result. Around the
World Annie, accompanied by some
of her girls, minced the last of
her meal at a near-by ,table. Kay
appraised them all. Her full lips
broke into the merest suggestion of
a cynical smile. Then she said in
a low tone to, her mother, “Quite
interesting, isn’t it?”
Hammond did not catch the re
mark. He only noticed that before
Kay lowered her eyes, she had
looked toward the corner where
Jeanne Towers sat. It i made him
want to explain; he remained si
lent, however, some way thankful
that he had not told Kay;/it was
Jeanne who had procured the
woman to do the housework at the
cabin. Suddenly he felt weak.
Around the World Annie had risen,
dusted the crumbs off her efful
gent lap, and was heading straigiit
for„his_taWe5__________________
Again Hammondnoticed that
Mrs. Joyce nudged her daughter,
again Kay looked up, then turned
to animated conversation w ith
Bruce Kenning. Around the World
Annie came onward. Somewhat
awkwardly Hammond got to his
feet.“Never mind that stuff," the
dance-hall proprietor exclaimed. "I
don’t want to butt in. I wanted to
know where I could flnd the pilot
of that airplane.”
Timmy Moon grinned.
"I’m it.”
Around the World Annie, raised
her diamond-sparked hand to her
bleached hair,
“I know now ain’t no time to
tallc about It,” she said, “you at din
ner and everything. I just wanted
to stick my oar in flrst. I got a lot
of work for you—a guy will see you
after while." Then, somewhat flus
tered by contact with hostile femi
ninity, she walked on, . j ■
Jack Hammond laughed uneasily
and wiped a hand across^ his damp
forehead.
Well, I’ll say this,” he sighed,
"you’re getting everything, all in
one dose."
“What’s her name?" asked Tim
my Moon.
“Around the World Annie," Bruce
Kenning volunteered. “She’s jput-
ting up a big dance hall over' on
the Alaskan side of the line. Hasn’t
gotten it flnished yet; that’s why
they're all eating over here."
"We would run into that bunch
tonight," said Jack in whole-hearted
discomfort. “I’d hoped to ease Kay
into all this stuff rather gradual
ly—"
"Oh, don’t be silly,” the girl said.
Hammond beamed.
“You’ll do, all right!”
“Of course she’ll do,” Mrs. Joyce
reached for her green holder.
“Kay’s no prude!”'
Certainly not. Besides, I think
all tills is simply gorgeous. Then,
when I’ve found my claim and filed
it or whatever you do—”
"As if you’d have to hunt a
claim,” Timmy broke in. ' "JacH
wrote you he’d laid aside one for
you.”
"Is it rich?" the girl asked. “With
gold nuggets sticking out every
where?"
Hammond fenced laughingly.
"Well, I can’t say that. None of
them are really rich. My partner
was saying today that we'd do well
if we- got flfty thousand out of our
ilrst, claims."'
Kay gasped.
“Only fifty thousond?"
“That’s just one claim," Kenning
interrupted. “Wait until they get
into the real stuu.”
"Where is it?" Mrs. Joyce had
become interested. H am m ond
shrugged his shoulders.
"I wish we knew. We’ve an Idea
-b u t-"
"What you need,” Kay interrupt
ed, "is a good geologist to help yoUi
find it. That’s what Father always'
said—never go into a mining deal
without having a geologist to tell
you where to go."Hammond toyed with his tinny
fork.
"I wish we could do a little con
sulting,” he said seriously.
“Well,” kay flipped her hand vo-
ward Kenning, “there’s your con
sultant.”
Kenning laughed and called for
her to soft pedal the press-agentry.
Hammond remained serious.
“My partner’s one of these old-
fashioned fellows who doesn’t be
lieve in science.”
“McKenzie Joe, you know,” Ken
ning supplied. “Been up in this
country most of his life.”
“But don’t people get queer—
staying away from civilization all
the time?” Kay asked.
“Bushed, we call it," Hammond
explained.
“Well, it amounts to tho same
thing.” ghe laughed. "I know what
I’d do if I needed advice. I just
wouldn’t say anything to him
about it."
Kennmg covered the situation
with a laugh."That’s a woman’s viewpoint ior

Earliest Rebel
F I FRONT, of tho statehouse In
Boston stands the statue of a
woman, with a Bible in her hand and
a child snuggled against her. The m-
scrlption on the monument tells you
that this woman was a "Courageous
Exponent of Civil Liberty and Reli
gious Tolerance.” But 300 years ago
Massachusetts wasn’t calling her by
any such complimentary names. In
the year 1637 she was "that proud
dame, that Athaliah,” a “notorious
Impostor," a “dayngerous Instru
ment of the Devell raysed up by
Sathan” and a “Breeder of Her
esies.” For she was Anne Hutchin
son, the earliest rebel in this coun
try.
She became n leader of a group
of people who fell under the dis
pleasure of the stern Puritans of
Massachusetts Bay colony. Bocauso
these people held meetings in her ¥ouse ' to'discuss- 'and - criticize-the -
sermons of the Puritan ministers,
they finally placed her on trial for
heresy, a trial that has been com
pared to that oi 'Toan of Arc at
Rouen.
Under their' questioning, sho
proved herself more than a match
for her prosecutors. But just at the
moment when it seemed that sho
had defeated her accusers, she burst
forth into a long speech describing
God’s revelations to her. Thus she
convicted herself and her penalty
was banishment from the colony.
But Anne Hutchinson was more
than the flrst defender of religious
freedom in America. She was our
earliest feminist. The meetings held
in her iiouse, although primarily
for religious discussion, were tho
forerunners of thousands of meet
ings since her day, wherever women
gather together to improve them
selves or the rest of the world. So
her house became the "birthplace
of the women’s clubs of America”
After her banishment from Mas
sachusetts Bay colony oho went to
that haven of religious freedom, the
colony of Rhode Island, founded by
Roger Williams. There she lived un
til 1042 wiien, left a widow, she
took her brood of children (she
had borne 14) to the Dutch colony
of New York where later she and
all of her children were killed.
But she had not lived in vain for
"civil liberty and religious tolera
tion,' the principles for which she
suffered exile nnd deatii are written
into the Constitution of the United
State»."

Pleasure of Life
Take away affection and good.
will and all the pleasure is taken
away from life.—Cicero.
Tho Nation’s Jester
O E WAS baptized as Charles
Farrar Browne but the whole
nation once loved him and laughed
with him under the name of Arte-
mus Ward. Born in Maine in 1834,
Browne served nn apprenticeship in
a print shop and then became a
journeyman printer. Finally he
wandered to Cleveland, Ohio, whero
he became a local reporter for the
Cleveland Plain Dealer and Invented
the char.acter of “Artemus Ward,"
supposed to be a traveling show
man, writing to the paper to give
information and to ask for it. Read
ers of that pRper roared over "Art
emus Ward's" bad spelling and
humorous descriptions of his ad
ventures and It was not long until
Browne got a call from New York
to become editor ot Vanity Fair,
a comic paper.
But this editorship did not last
long for tlie v.'andering foot of the
ioi-iiier journeyman printer soon be
gan to assert itself. Ho published
“Artemus Ward, His Book" which
had a phenomenal sale. Then he'
,took to the lecture platform and
"Artemus Ward," until now a fletir
tious character, became a living
reality to thousands of Americans.
One of Ward's devoted readers
was President Lincoln and his book
played a role in an historic scene
at the White House during the Civil
war. In September, 1802, Lincoln
called a meeting of his cabinet
nriembers whom he astonished by
reading excerpts from Word'? book.
When they failed to join in his
laughter, Lincoln threw down the
book and said“Gentlemen, why don't
you laugh? With the fearful strain
that is upon me night and day, if
I didn't laugh, I should die and you
need the medicine as much as I do."
He then told them the real pur
pose of the meeting which was to
read to them a paper he iiad pre
pared and which he propcsed to
issue when the time was ripe. That
paper was tho Emancipation Proc
lamation. When he had finished
reading it, Secretary Stanton ex
claimed “Mr. President, if reading
chapters of Artemus Ward is a pre
lude to such a deed as this, the book
should be filed among the archives
of the nation, nnd tlie author can
onized."
The author was never canonized
but before he died in 186'/, Artemus
Ward had not only become Ameri
ca’s favorite jester but ho had won
fame as a humorist in England such
as no other American before him
i had ever known.

V’.'th the aid of the Speed-Frcezer

to the amazing speed with which
this new unit freezes all ice cream

a chance to form, and thus pro

FORMER TWIN-CITY MAYOR WRITES
The publisher has received many letters
from readers of thi& paper, but has never re
ceived 0Ï1Ü more highly appreciated than tho
one last week from former Mayor of Winston-
Salem, 0. B. Katon, Mr. Eaton is a Davie
County man, and loves his old home county.
And since so many of our readers know him
personally, flndj many others know! 3him by
reputation, we are giving space here to re-
quoto hia letter. Mr. Eaton writes:
“For several weeks I have been visiting
my sister. The Enterpviae ia a welcome
■weekly visitor. I enjoy it thoroughly, not
only because it is a Davie County paper but
because it has much helpful and valuable
Information.
■ A good newspaper is not properly appre
ciated. When can you buy so j^uch real
value for three cents that is in one issue of
The Enterprise, value cf a high order that
can’t be measured in dollars and cents? A
newspaper is one of the county’s biggest as-
.seta. It is educational, it develops its re-
SGurccG, it shapes and moulds public opinion,
It atands for law, for order, for justice, for
loyalty and obedience. It is a mighty in
tellectual force, a purifying presence and н
moral power and restraint.
You are making Tho Enterprise a very
fine Sunday School teacher. Your weekly
review of the Sunday School lesson will
comparo favorably with the best. You un
fold its central, trut}i and bring, out practical
lessons that will be very helpful and result
in good. I congratúlate you on the con
structive work you яге doing,
, 'Dnvie County'.and its fine type of citizen
ship are very dear to me. ■ Thé place of our
birth is fascinating to moat of us. There are
no skie.4 like those that ;>rch above my child-
Jio(k1 home, no hills like those my boyhood
ieet have climbed, and no memory and nsao-
çiation as sweet and gentle aa those that
cling around tho recollection of my early
life".-------------------------f)-------------------------

LET’S HAVE MOKE “HIG DAYS”
Say folks, and especially you merchants,
u’hat do you think of this town putting on
more “big days”? V/e are nearing July 4th.
We could well afford to make it a big .day,
advertise it and ask the people of the 'iiur-
rounding section to come in and have a big
time with us. Wc need to get better ac-
qninted with our friends living nearby, and
especially the farmers. Moreover, to got in
a habit of coming to our town will do much
to build it up as a trading center. Why not
also start giving some kind of special trade
days and making exfcrao.rdinary, oifera to
those wanting to trade..... Friend merchants,
lets’« try to work together to bring more
folks here. It will pay U8 well and we will
enjoy seeing new visitorg here and leurning
new people. THINK ABOUT IT.

HARD ON FRANKENSTEEN
We presume Richard Frcnkensteen, direct
or of the union’s campaign to organize Ford
workers, felt like he had made about as big
a mess of it as did Popeye’s lawyer. He got
all boat up. He is an ex-football player,
but those Ford workers -Jressed in overalls
seemed too much for him. They knocked
him down just.to see him get up again. Af
ter the twelfth fling Frankensteen and his
helpers decided they had no further busi
ness on Ford's property and beat it. Well,
if the Ford woiTters are happy and content
ed with their wagea, why should they bo in-
terfnrnd with.______________________________

ANOTHER GOOD MAN GONE
When Captain Cephas Newton Christian
died this town and county suffered an irre
parable losa. He was a power for good in
Mocksville and this section. He was a de
vout Christian, a loyal mnaon and a geniel
friend to all those with whom he contacted.
He stood for those things whjch make a com.-
munity a better place in which to live, and
no town can lose such a stalwart citizen
without becoming noox'cr thereby. Many
people will mias him.

HOW TO READ
From The Winston-Salem Journal.
The lazy season ia upon ua—that indolent
period of the year when it ia good to swing
in a hammock beneath the treea, and, read a
good book.
But as a discriminating reader reminds
ua, "the bookg wo read should be chosen with
great care, that they may be, aa an Egyptian
king wrote over his library, “the medicines
of the soul”.
“Be as careful of the books you read ns
of the company you keep; for your habits and
character will be as much influenced by the
former aa by the latter”.
Here is how one student of literature
choaes his reading:
For action read Homer and Scott.
For choice of individual words read Keats,
Tennyson and Emerson.
For clearnesa read Macaulay.
For common sense read Benjamin iFrank-
lin.
For conciseness !'ead Bacon and Pope,
For elegance read Virgil, Milton and Ar
nold.
For humor read Chaucer, Cervantes and
Twain. ■
Foi’’’ imagination read Shakespeare and
Job.
For interest in common things road Jane
Austen.
For logic read Burke and Bacon.
For loving and patient observation of na
ture read Thoreau and Walton.
For simplicity read Burns, Whittier and
Bunyan.
For smoothness read Addison and Haw
thorne.
For study of huiiiuii ualurt; read Shakes
peare and George Eliot.
For information on the future and eternity
read the Bible. ,

DRIVE CAREFULLY
From The Winston-Salem Journal
Lack of understanding of critical traffic
situations and safe driving rules contliiUi.s to
bo a costly factor in the nation’s automobile
accident toll, according to the aupei’intendent
of the automobile department of a casualty
insurance company.
“Carelessne.4s could hardly peraiat in such
degree as is disclosed in thousands of in-
vestigationa of accidents, if drivers really
understood their own acta in relation to the
general traffic flow”, he asserts.
Turning from the wrong iane of traffic waa
cited aa one example. The offender in thia
case cuts directly and unexpectedly in front,
of other drivers following him when he .turns
right from nny lane other than tho one near
est the right-hand- curb, or when he turns'
loft from any lane except the one farthest
loft.
Improperly or inadequately given hand
.signiils are also cited the moat frequent er
rors of autoists, along with drivers’ failure
to signal when about to pull out from a park-
imr place.
'Driving an automobile is a ,hazardous busi
ness at bost. Intelligence, alertness, sobrie
ty and consideration for others aro four as
sets that every driver .should possess. —
Winstnn-Salem Journal.

SOIL-BUILDING CROPS
ARE ON THE INCREASE
North Carolina farmers who
cooperated in tho aoil conaorva-
tion program last yoar increased
their acreage of soil-conserving
crops by 550,000 acres, accord
ing to E, Y. Floyd, of State Col
lege.
Aftor tabulating figures com
piled from t/he work sheets
covering the coperating farms,
the tSate AAA office announced
that 1,800,000 acres of conserv
ing crops, mainly legumes, jvere
seeded last year as a direct re
sult of the program or in con
nection with it.
An even larger acreage is
being seeded this year aa farm
ers take advantage of the oppor
tunity to build up their aoil,
chock erosion, and balance their
farming operations while earn
ing payments from the govern
ment, Floyd stated.
He also pointed out that last
year some 550,000 acres of cot
ton land were diverted into con
serving cropa; 200,000 acres of
tobacco land and 40,000 acres of
peanut Land were also diverted.
By diverting cash crop acre
age and carrying out .noil-build
ing practices. North Carolina
farmers earned! !fli2,403,903 in
1936. Similar rates of payment
are offered again this year,
Floyd added.
In 1936, more than 127,000
work sheets wore signed, cover
ing 14,500,000 acres of farm
land. Of. this acreage, 5,760,000
acres were considered crop
land.
With additional work sheets
signed this year, it is expected
that 150,000 ^ or more work
sheets will lo in force for the
1937 program. Floyd pointed out.
Tho deadline for signing u
work sheet is-June 12. However,
farmers who ■ had M’orksheets
last year will not need to sign
again.

‘‘Tide of Death’’
By ..Fli'OÎD GIBBONS
ï'amqus Headline Hunter
T^HEN Hubert C. F uller of Brooklyn was eighteen, his dad
VV moved from M issouri to a spot in Oklahoma on the banka
of the Canadian river. The nearest town was Konawa, but in
tlie section the Fullers mdVed to, they and the R. F. D post
master were the only settlers within a radius of about fifteen
miles. The Fullers’ farm w as on one side of the river and the
postmaster’s was on the other,
: HubG says the river bed was three quarters of a mile wide, but in the
summer of 191d, when they moved there, hot weather and a drouth had
,just about dried the nyer up. There was nothing but a little stream of
water about six feet wide and three feet deep, running zig-zag from ono
bank lo the other.
There was treachery in that sluggish river, too. Its head-
wnters were up In the Colorado mountains, and sometimes water
frnm molting snow would sweep dowR the dry river bed in a torrential avalanche, taking everything iicfore it and lliling the river
1)0(1 from bank to bank. “The natives,” says Ilube, “call those
{rcqiient ooourrenues ‘head rises.’ ”
Couldn’t Understand. liis Alarm.
And though Hube knows all about those “head rises” now. he didn’t I know a thing about them at the time this story opens.
I Hubc’s dad had gone across the river a lew days before to help the
Ipostmaster cut some wood on his farm, and he had asked Hube to hitch
I up tho team, to the wagon and drive over and got a load. It .was a hot day,
■ with thunder clouds up tho river to the northwest, Hube drove the
Iliorsos-Sis and Ned—down into the river bed. He forded what little
■Vatcr there was In the bottom and then let the horses pick their way
Bwliilc lie lay down in the wagon with his hat over his eyes.I Several times, he thought he heard strange rumblings up river,
■ but he paid no attention to them. “I must have dozed off to sleep,” ho
Isays, “for tho next thing I knew I heard someone shout my name. I sat

■bolt upright. On the other side of tho river I saw tho postmaster and
Ihis wife, frantically waving to me nnd shouting ‘Hurry!’ ”
They were shouting at the top ot their voices, but Hube could
Hardy hear them, for the booming and rumbling up the river had
.suddenly increased lo a roar, “I was just about in the middle of
Ihe river bed,” he says,“ going cat-a-corner downstream to where
an old sycamore marked the wagon road, I gave tho horses tho
line and they started to trot, I was puzzled. VVhat was wrong
wllh tho postmaster?”
Thirty-Foot Wall of Water.
I ^ But as Hube watched the postmaster he pointed upstream. Hube
looicd. “I could see the bed for about a mile, up to where it made a
sliarp turn,” ho says. “There was nothing but wind-swept sand. But'as
I iooked, cold terror struck to the marrow of my bones. Around the bend,
Ime a black nightmare, whirled a tliirty-foot wall of water. As it turned
Ine bond, the sandy banks on either side caved in with a great splash.”
Hube was panic-stricken. He jumped between the horses, unhooked
|ne trijce.i, nnd riding Ned and leading Sis, ho started to ride for hia
Me. Sis wasn’t used to being led by the halter and she hold batk. “1
Wed to do it,” says Hube, “but I let her go. The river bank ahead was
oo steep for the horse. .1 had to rim him downstream toward the wagon Irail, It was a terrible racel”
The roar of thp water was fairly deafening now. Hube’s horse
seii.sca the danger and ran like mad. Ilube says ho didn't dare
l»ok back, but he could liear that water getting closer and
closer as tiiey raced on. He was almost lo the bank fifteen feet—
icn teot away—when he felt spray on his cheek. And then an
other fear seized him.
Safe in tho Sycamore '¡Tree.
'jNcd was doing his best,” he says, “but after all, he was just n
heavy plow horse. The path up the bank was steep, and he' could
icvor make the grade at tho speed he was going. We were at the foot
K lho incline when Wed hit the rise with his knees, stumbled and went
Then, with a last heroic effort, he lurched straight up on hi.««,
that lurch saved Hube’s life. As the horse rose in the air, Hube
irabbod wildly for support, and as luck would have it he caught a branch
I’ the old sycamore tree hanging over the bank. Says he: “I scurried
■“<! a possum for the highest branch—just in the niok of time. The
ivaianehe was on us. Old Ned bellowed a high, shrill scream. Then
!? "'“s crushed under the terrifle force of the water. I never saw him,
j's or tho wagon again. The postmaster and his wife had turned their
™ks on the awful scene. When I shouted, they stared at me as if they
ere seeing a ghost. The muddy water was churning and boiling
™ut <Tiy feet. The old sycamore tree v/as all but covered with it.”
• Tho postmaster got a rope and threw it to Hube. “I walked
iiand over hand, up lo my waist in water," he says, "until I
readied solid ground. I had no more reached safety than I heard
* splash. Tiio old svoamore tree had toppled into the muddy w.-iter.” .
says that ^Ince that day he has lived an uneventful life. “Bu>

Longest and Shortest Days
The longest and shortest days ot
the year are determined by the
summer and winter solstices, the
exact time being determined by
mathematical calculation. The sol
stices aro the times of the year
when the sun is at its greatest dec
lination, either, north or south. For
instance, the summer solstice is tho
time when the sun roaches its farth
est point in its swing nortliward
from the equator, which, according
ly, marlcs the longest day of the
year. The year consists of approx
imately 305'/4 days, and it is thia
fractional day of each year which
causes the solstices to fluctuate.
This is adjusted by the leap years.
However, the longest and shortest
days differ in length from the days
immediately preceding and follow
ing them by only a fraction ot a
minute.

ment nor by enforcing birth
control of pigs. _ His ioea of
statesmnnahip caiissd“ him to
operate in nn entirely different
irianner than some of our modern
statesmen.
Representing the Eg>1pt;inn
government, the man we are
about Ho discuss bought up and

over production was not a prob- ¡,bout to do he
lem. Then when the depression
came this food was sold and dis-
trib;«ted to the starving thou
sands of his own subjects and
those nf adjoining nations. This
n an ’s name '¡^&s Joseph. He was
the son of a wealthy Jew, then
residing near Hebron in the land
of Canaan.
When a lad of about 17 years ........... .............................

When this fine young servan'.
of God was brought into the pre
sence of Egypt’s king, Pharaoh
told him that he had had ,a bad
dream and that he did not under
stand it himself, nor could any
of his wise men interpret it.'
Pharaoh told Joseph thiit he'had
heard that he could understand
and interpret dreams. Joseph
answered, "IT IS NOT IN ME:
PHARAOH
AN: ANSWER OF PEACE.”
Then Pharaoh told his dream to
Joseph. Joseph told Pharaoh
that God had showed him what
He was about to do. He told
i him:
“The seven good kine are
seven years; and tho seven good
earii a'~e seven years: the dream
is one. And the seven thin and
ill favored kine that camo up
after thom are seven years; and
the seven empty ears blasted
with the east wind shall be
seven years of famine. This is
the thing which I have spoT<en
unto Pharaoh: what God is'
sheweth unto
Pharaoh. Behold, there come
seven years of great plenty
throughout all of' the land of
Egypt. And there shall arise af
ter them seven years of famine;
and all the plenty shall be foi-
gotten in the land of Egypt; and
the famine shall consume the
land; and the plenty■ shall not
be known in the land, by reason

uleeping in hiB father’s tent.
These dreams, together with his
lather’s favoritism, caused him
to be sold by his i>roth'ers as a
•lave into Egypt, and there he
not only dreamed drecrns, but he
Interpreted- dreams 'and , made
dreams come true. Just and up-
xiRht, clean cut and manly,
young Joseph kept his character,
while living in the house of Poti-
|4iar, but got into prison as a
result of his upright conduct.
HoTvever, the old saying that,
"You can’t Itcep a good = itian
down”, proved itrue in Joseph’s
case, for his influence made it
self felt'and his character be-
, ¿Atrie known outside of those pri
son walls, POIR GOD WAS
WITH HIM.
Out of Prison and Into
Pharaoh’s Palace
Pharaoh had a strange dream.
In fact he had -two dreams in
one. In one of these dreams he
saw seven fat cows standing
aear the river, Nile. While these
w eie feeding, seven lean ones
followed them up from the
(iver. They were fearful looking
creatures, poor and lean and
jniserable in appearance. They
»to up the seven fat cows, hut
remair.ed as lean and ugly as
before. Then Pharaoh awoke and
■wondered what the meaning of
liis dream could be. He went to
Bleep again, and in his second
dream he saw seven heads of
grain, all growing upon one
, stalk. They were liirry as'.'J
strong and <iood to look upon.
Then seven heads came up after
them. These v/ere thin and poor
and withered, and the seven thin
heads swallowed up the seven
good heads of gr.'iin, but remain-
erl as poor !;nd withered as be
fore.
The next morning Pharaoh
called in all of the wise men of
Egypt, but none of them could
shall be very grievous. And' ‘fo'r
that the dream was dbublid into
Pharaoh twicer it is because the
thing is estat:|lished by God, and
God will ghortiy bring it to pass.
Now, therefore, let Pharaoh
look out a man discrete and
wise, and set him over the land
of Egypt. Let Pharaoh do this,
and let him appoint officers over
the land, and take up the fifth
part of the land of Egypt in the
seven plenteous years. And; let
them gather nil the food of those
guud years that comc, and lay up
corn under the hand of Pharaoh
and let them keep food in the
cities. And that food shall be
for store to the land against'the
seven years of famine, which
shall be in the land of Egypt;
that the land perish not through
the famine.”
Pharaoh Makes Jotieph Ruler
Over Egypt
Before Joseph h!ad tfinished
speaking, Pharaoh had ' realized
that he was not only a good
man, but that he had the mak
ing of a statesman, and thfft
God was with him and he im
mediately made him ruler over
his country. And Pharaoh said,
"see, r have set thee over all the
land of Egypt.” Then he took (ffi
hia ring and put it upon Joseph’s
hand and clothed him in fine
linen and put a gold chain about
his neck. “And h_e made him to
ride in the second chariot which
he had; and they cried before
!;im, bow the knee: and he made
him ruler over all the land of
EgypLj And -Pharaoh aftld unto
Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and with
out thee shall no man lift up
his hand or foot in all tho land
of Egypt”.'
Thus it is anon that Joseph, by
his upright life and faith and
fidelity to the God of his
father, Jacob, hn made tho
dream which he dreamed in his

somehow manage to get in and stay

them.
In other words, when we give
these unpleasant parties a complimentary ride back where they come

Washington,—Farm loaders have
gone before congress again lo press
,, a new agricultural
U rge N ew program. L ik e
F arm P rosram several that have
come through in
tho last half-dozen years, the new
proposition is based on a subsidy.
The currcnt program, like the old
AAA, is predicated on agreements
by which farmers will not do some
thing and be paid for'not doing it.
To obtain the subsidies from the
federal treasury' contemplated in
the new farm legislation, farmers
will have to sign contracts agreeing
to curtail their acreages up to twen
ty per cent of their avorage cultiva
tion for tiie last several years. If
they fall or refuse to sign these
contracts, the legislation describes
them as not co-operating and, there
fore, they would be denied the right
to obtain loans from the federal gov
ernment and they would not have a
guarantee of "parity prices,” as a
penalty. Moreover, those farinors
who failed or refused to co-operate
liniitSTraniTCr-wonld-be- subjeclBd-
to prohibitive taxes on the sale of
products grown in excess of limits
on totals to be prescribed by Secre
tary Wallace of the Department of
Agriculture.
The announced basis of this new
program is for "conservation of the
soil.” Further, its sponsors contend
that it will mean a gradual upbuild
ing of the fertility of the soil so that,
in the end, fewer acres will have to
be cultivated to produce the same
volume of corn or cotton or wheat
or whatever other crop is grown.
But I think there are few individ
uals who will say that tlie above
reasons honestly constitute the basis
for this new farm legislation. I
think it must be admitted that the
plan is only a subterfuge; that,
while it may help some farmers by
giving them cash, it is pure politics
with cash as a sop.
I am not ono equipped to say that
agriculture does not need a subsidy
even though prices of farm products
are now almost double what they
were in 1933. It is entirely possible
that farmers throughout the nation
still need help in the form of cash.
It may be the better part of wisdom
to vote such payments as are con
templated In this new legislation. On
tho other hand, however; if thero
is that need then let us bei, honest
about it.
I^rs.4ldent Roosevelt lately haa
signed a new law which provides
subsidies to shipping companies in
order tliat America may have its
own merchant marine, but those
payments are to be called subsidies.
They are not disguised nor con-
^Jaled. It seems ridiculous, there
fore, that tho farm leaders should
not be frank with the members of
their organizations. If they feel that
a subsidy is needed, why not put
it up to congress that way so that
those farmers whp believe in sub
sidies as well as those who want
to see agriculture left alone for
awhile can understand what is go
ing on.. . .
I imagine that the farm leaders
who are sponsoring the new legisla-
tion could scarce- 1./IOSC jy chosen a
B ad T im e
presentation of
their program. I mean that, in
presenting this type of legislation
when congress is undergoing a wave
of economy, tho program is likely
to receive scant ■ consideration. ' It
ahvays lias been tiie case that legis
lation goes through several stages
of hauling and filling in congres'
with tho result that after much de
bate a bill I satisfactory to the ma
jority emerges. In presenting their
program at this timo, therefore, the
farm leaders are not doing a very
good job of leading. There will be
much agitation on the part of the
farni leaders that will get just no
where at all booause of conditions
in congrcss. ,
Edward A, O’Neal, president' of
the American Farm Bureau Feder
ation, recently was quoted as saying
tiiat the new plan v.’ould not require
any payments direct from the treas
ury; that is, it would pay its own
way through the medium of taxes If
it "works perfectly.” That is the
rub. I find doubt in nearly all quar
ters that the plan can "work per
fectly.” It is so complex and re
quires such a bureaucracy'for ad
ministration of it that to expect it
to "work perfectly,” is virtually to
expect that leglijlation will control
the weather. I think everyone will
agree that congress and the admin
istration has not yet baen able to
find tho formula for controlling the weather.
I believe it can be said fairly that
many farmers are dissatisfied with
the soil conservation progrf\m
adopted as a substitute for tho AAA
which the much criticized Supreme
court held unconstitutional' by a
unanimous vote. Even those offi
cials of the Department of Agricul
ture who aro frank will admit that
the soil conservation is not an oiTec-
tive means for controlling produc-
tion, It does have as far as
it goes in conserving tha soil. But
there is another phase: It has been
pointed out too often almost to need
.repetition here that the soil con-'
sorvatlon law, as occurred
the AAA, results in millions J
lars being paid to individuah
corporations who are in no wav
ticlpating in conservation nctij,;
Now, while Mr. O’Neal ihinul
the proposed law can bo орс,,!
without expense to the federal r.
ury, there is yet tho convictb
some quarters that it probably'J
cost about six hundred million]
lars e year to pay the sub-J
and pay for adminlstration oil
law.' Six hundred million dollai
year is a large, sum at any i
and it bulks much larger at at.
when then* is,a nation-wido ctvl a balanced budget for the t(iJ
government. It is a sum tliai ц!
budget of the federal governJ
otherwise were balanced, wou|J
sufflcient to frighten thousand
holders of United States bonds, |
It would seem then that tl,« i.
leaders' ought to take into ct,
oration the status of the fej
government’s financial aHaiil
they want to devnlop n рг»
that will live. I have hoard I
many students of agricultural p
lems that tho remedy for farmil
ditions is not an expensive nev/J
tem of farm subsidies. Tlioy jJ
that it will be impossible for 1
Sam to continue annual payi..
to some three million or moriiìl
ers and they are convlnccd, fud
that most farmers thcmselvcjl
jected to being placed in thot
gory of relief clients. An argm
is also advanced that morel
more farmers believe federali
cies that cause money to be ln»l
out free to farmers will, in thej
destroy the independence ol ;
culture. However that mny 1*1
however tho majority of the 111
ers feel about receiving moneyl
tls from the government at
ington, it cannot bo said thati]
culture is being placed on n s
footing by politicians and .
farm leaders wliose solo obj«

I Often tho state on which such de-

№en similar disputes arise between
Jidepoiident nations, the choice lies
Ictween diplomatic conferences and
lar. But, here, under the Constltu-
lon, the Supreme court is prepared
b meet such situations.
[what were some of these diftor-
Jaccs, amicably settled by submlt-
Ing them for decision to our Na-
fonal Umpire? Here are a few:
[In 18H2 Rhode Island asked tho
liiprcme court to determine the cor
ed boundary line between that
late and Massachusetts. Both
llalmod title to the land under their
Respective charters from the Brit-
1 crown.
Massachusetts W ins,
liter deterniining that the evidence
bowed the territory in dispute had
jccn possessed and occupied by the
leople of Massachusetts for over
Ivo hundred years, the court de-
Jided in favor of the Bay state.
"It would be difficult,’' explained
iie opinion,- "to disturb a claim thus
lanctionod by time, however un-
loundod it might have been in its
Jrigin,”
In another case, Missouri and Ken-
^(cky could not agree as to the own
ership of an island in the Mississippi
Mhe boundary between thé two
liâtes. The main channel of the
[Ivor had been fixed as the dividing
iiie.
Prom the evidence submitted the

pimilar disputes between our states,

Court Recalls Old Treaty.
In 1821, fur fexaiiiple, the Supreme
,ourt was asked to decide a dispute
petween Oklahoma and Texas, in-
folving a strip of valuable oil land
Mimed by both.
To avert possible armed conflicts
letween parties claiming title from
lie state of Texas nnd,others.claims
N title from the state of Oklahoma,
^t became necessary for the Supremo
court to assume charge of the ter-
fitory through a receiver, until the
fiapute was dccidcd.
The case was settled in favor ivf
Oklahoma, after the court found it
Jeeessary to consider a treaty be-
iween tho United States and Spain,
siened back in 1819.
On another occasion the Supreme
Court ordered Colorado not to divert
¡more than a small amount of the
raters of a river within its bounda

Iri M people of Wyoming of their r|Snt tjj have the river, on whose

“Strange Visitor'’*
By FLOYD GIBBONS
know, they say troubles never come singly—which is just
A another w ay of saying that Old Lady Adventure is never con
tent with giving you just one sock in the jaw . I don't know how
true that is, but it certainly worked out that w ay in the case of
Hattie Rohr of Chicago,
big boiit with Old Lady Adventure came in , the Winter of
1917. There was trouble enough in the world then, without having the
old girl with the thrill bag on your neck. The war was on and the influenza
epidemic was sweeping the country. Hattie, In those days, was just aa
eleven-year-old girl, living with her mother and dad and tiiree sisters
on a farm between Clare and Dodge City, Iowa. Her name then was
Hattie Mcljaughlin.
The flu epidemic struck ihe IMcIiaughlin family In January.
It brought down Hattie's dad and her three sisters, and that left
Hattie and her mother to do all the chores around that big farm.
It was one of those days whon nvervthlnc seemed to eo wrong. Mother
had just come from upstairs lo call the do"ctor. Dad and the three sick
girls were worse. While they were waiting for the doctor the party-line
phone rang. It was the school teacher, down with the flu herself, who
-wanled-Hattle-to-go-to-the-schoolliouse-and-post-Ei-noticeTsaylng-thero- would be no school that day.
Strange Man Camo fo tho Door.
Already tired from her morning's work, Hattie struggled moro than
n mile through the snow to post that notice. She found two small children
sliivoring in the cold, waiting for the school to open, and took them
to her home and phoned their father to come and get them. And no
sooner had he come and gone with his pair of kids than Hattie heard another knock on the door.
A strange man was out front. He said he was a telephone
lineman from Clare, and wanted to know if he could come in and,
get warm. Uattie and iier motiicr asked him in and gave him a
cup of tea.
While ho was drinking his tea and eating a piece of corn broad,
Hattio and her mother went on with their work. Nothing unusual hap
pened until he had flnlshed eating and drinking. Then the stranger
got up and walked over to the stove.
It was, such an unusual movement that Hattio stopped to watch
him. He backcd up against the stove as if to warm himself, but Hattio
saw one of his hands slide into his pocket and come out holding a
tiny bottle.
Ho Poured Something Into tho Bcnns.
There was a pot of boans boliing on tho stove. Slowly,
shielded by his body, tho stranger's hand crept up and emptied
tho contents of tho bottle into tiio pot of beans'.
Her mother hadn't seen it, but Hattie was standing in such a position
that she could see overy movo ho made. Sho was startled—fright
ened. An older person might have said nothing, for fear of precipitating
trouble. That mother and child were defenseless, with dad ill in bed
upstairs. But kids of Hattie's age don’t stop to think of those things.
She let out a scream and then, impulsively, she darted across the
room nnd knocked the bottle from the man’s hand.
Her mother turned to see what was the matter. At the same time,
the stranger reached inside his coat, pulled out a long, thin-bladcd
knife, and slashed Hattie across the lags. Blood began to, flow from a
long deep cut. Dazed at the turn affairs had taken, Hattie backed
away, staring at tho man. The man siood, knife in hand, staring back
at Hattie. Her mother was staring at both of them. For a minute there
was a deathly silence.
Hattio Fought to Save Her Mother.
The man made no other move—said nothing. Hattie and hei mother
were too frightened to speak. They began to realize the fellow was
stark mad. Hattie sat down, took off >a stocking and tied it about;lief
wound.The man stood looking, first at her, then at her mother. Ho
waited until she was finished tying up her bleeding leg, and then
lie walltcd across tho room to where her mother was standing,
breathless and paralyzed with fright, AND RAISED THE KNIFE.'
And again Hattie acted impulsively. In nn instant she was out
of her chair and darting across the room. Reaching out quickly
grabbed the knife! , , ,The man gave the knife a quick pull. It came out of Hattio s hand,
cutting it clear to the bone at the base of the thumb. Crying out in pain,
siie grabbed at her wrist with her other hand. Tho madman shovfi
her away, and knocked her mother down.
For pnother moment Hattie stood dazed. The man fell on her
mother, sat on her chest and began choking hei. And at.that, a sudden
change came over Hattie. Before, she had been frightened—trembling.
Now she became furious. A red mist seemed to drop before her eyes.
She grabbed up a piece of wood from the pile beside the stove, raised
it pver her head and brought it down, as hard as she could, on the
madman’s head.
The Beans Were Poisoned.
The man rolled over and lay still. Hattie’s wrist was still
bleeding and her mother tied It up tightly to stop the flow. They
got ropes and tied the maniac’s hands behind his back and then-
well_then Hattie keeled over in a dead faint.canlp to. tho doctor had been to the house. Ho had sewed
up Hattie’s woiSids and she had never known a thing about it. The
doctor also took the madman back to town and turned him over to
the police. They found out later tliat he had oscapcd from an institu
tion dov.-n in the South, where h? had been put for murder.And when they analyzed that pot of beans into which he had
emptied that bottle, it was found that they^were poisoned 1

'Annie Lpurie Home Held
by the Family Since 1611
The home of the famous Annie
Laurie, tho heroine of the Scottish
bailed sung in every corner of the
v/orld, is known as the estate of
Maxwelton, Dumfrieshire, Scotland.
The ownership of this property goes
back more than 300 years, says a
writer in the New York Herald
Tribune.
Maxwelton House, originally a
fortress of the Earls of Glencairn
and known as Glencairn castle, has
been in the hands of the Laurie
family since 1611.
Soventy-one years later. In IG82,
Anna was born, the daughter of Sir
Robert Laurie. The first Baronet
Douglas of Fingland, the author oi
the original words of the ballad, was
her first sweetheart, but the engage
ment was broken off, and in 1709
she married Alexander Fergusson,
of Craigdarroch, a neighboring es
tate. Her picture and that of her
husband hang .In the dining room
at Maxwelton,
There are 4,000 acres in the prop

river. In tho house there are four

For three years he slept in a

earned a few kronen, ho stopped
work and went to some cheap cafe
to deliver political speeches. He
painted poor water colors which a
friend peddled for him, ho painted
picture postcards, and when hungry

CROTALARIA IS GOOD
SOIL-BUILDING CROP
Crotalaria, v legume which
lias been used for .several years
by farmers in Florida apd in the
C.'irolina sandhilJs to tiuild up
poor, thin soil, has been intro
dueed on several farms in the
Hunterabille erosion control
ai'ea, according to agronomist
H; 0. Bock of tho Soil Conserva
tion Service.
Agronomists of the Service re
commend that crotalaria be
seeded ofi sandy soils which are
low in fertility and deficient in
organic matter and which are
unsuited to the production of les
podeza.
It is not advisable to seed
crotalaria near the barn, pas
ture or poultry r range, Beck
warned, as tho tioed of certain
strains (such as Crotalaria spec-
tablis) nre poisonous. 'I’his
should not worry farmers, how-
lyor, since livostock will iiot eat
the foliage.
In the Piedmont region crotal
aria should be seeded broadcast
at the rate of 25 or 30 pounds
to tho acre, though good results
have been obtained from 15 to 20
pounds per acre.
On the farm of J. L, Choate,
;wo miles south of Huntoroville
just off the Charlotte highway,
a severely eroded, sandy 4-acre
field which wns seeded in cro
talaria last year supports a dense
stand of plants averaging 6 feet
in height.
In the event the crotalnrin
does not-reseed itself in, that
section, Choate will plow it un
der and seed the area to another
cro:p. The crops which ¡follows
will be benefited greatly from
the increased nitrogen supply
added to the soil by the legume
andt by the increased organic
matter which improves the phy
sical texture of the soil.

tliree per cent nitrogen. eight
[ler cent, pliospliorle acid, and
eight per cent, potash applied
with a drill at the rate of 800
to 1,200 pounds per acre.
Two-thirds of the \ nitrogen
should come from inorganic
sources and ono-third from or
ganic sources. The potash should
bo derived from muriate or sul
phate of potash, Watson added.
Stable manure shoulc^ not be
used unless it is well rotted nnd
can be broadcast at least a
month b’efore planting time.
Diseaso-freb seedlings should
be planted in clean soil, if possi
ble. If the soil is infested with
stem rot or wilt, treat the seed
lings with Sernesan, or dip tho
roots and stems in 20-20-50 Bor
deaux mixture, said Dr. R. F.
Poole, plant pathologist.
Or the seedlings may be dust
ed with a mixture of 25 per
ctent. monohydrated copper sul
phate and 75 per cent. lime.

CDAFIER IV—Continued l
"Women are right sometimes,"
Mrs. Joyce nddod. Timmy fussed
with Ws knife and fork.
"Wish thnt Yellow Peril would
.bring', on the stealc. I'm going to
eat the tablecloth in a minute.”
“K’ll be along,” Hammond an-
Bwered, glad of the change bf con-
i-versatibij, “I’ll try to get. hold of
'. that Chinaman—”
'He raised hia head, looking about
the shoddy restaurant, only to pause
as the door opened and a young
’ man entered, ptiused a moment,
then started forward at the sight
of Hammond's party. He was a
man Jack had not seen before, once
.well built, but now somewhat fallen
pwayi'aB though hia clothing did not
flt, or an Inactive life had robbed
a frame once well filled by the
outdoors. The sagginess extended
to his features, deep lines about his
mouth, a thickness of the cheeks
at each side of his nose. He raised
a: cigarette' to hia lips with a jerky
movement, then snapped tho arm
quickly down at hid side. Now he
hesitated, as if wondering whether
or not to Interrupt. At last he de
cided against further ^approach. and
turned egain to the door.
Hammond saw him glance toward
the corner where Jeanne Towers sat
,and stiffen a,3 though with surprise.
|Tlien he heard a sound from the
corner, half gasp, half scream, that
was smothered almost before it be
gan. For an instant the two stared,
as if each were petrified by the
other’s presence. Then the young
man swung out the door, and
J eanne Towers, fighting mlglitily to
pretend unconcern, returned to hei:
meager meal.
i • CKATTEU Vf
' An hour later, Hammond saw tho
man again. The meal was finished
and Jack was strolling through the
camp with his guests; Kay had an
nounced a tremendous interest in
everything about her; she could not
wait until morning, she said.
So now, picking their way along
the dark passageways and trails
which passed ns streets, Hammond
had done his best to give a picture
of tha place, its beginnings, its
hopes. At Jest, tired, they had
turned homev/ard, Timmy Moon
lagging somewhat in the fear.
Glancing back, Hammond saw the
dim form of a man follow the avi
ator for a few moments—at last
halting ■ him. Timmy was late
reaching the cottage.
‘‘Where’ve you been?” asked
Kay. The pilot grinned.
“A fellow wanted me to make a
trip for him.”
‘‘That man who came Into the
Slumgullion?” Hainmond asked.
T im m y nodded. Kay Joyce
, shrugged her shoulders.
‘‘How far is it from here to Wran
gell?” asked Timmy.
“To where?" Kay was yawning.
“Wrangell, • Alaska,” Jack sup
plied. “It's about a hundred miles,
air line,"
“That’s okay.” said Timtny. “Fif-
ty cents a mile; a hundred bucks
for the round trip. Say/’ he que
ried, “there's a part of thia laka
that dips over on the Alaskan side
of the line, isn’t there!"
••ye»,'"
“Mind pointing It out to me?”
“Now?” asked Hammond.
“Sure. I'll be malting nn early
get-away in the morning. Let's go
outside.”
“Well,” said Kay, with another
yawn, “if there’s anything to see,
let’s take a look at It. Come on,
Mother.”
Mrs, Joyce laid aside her green
cigarette holder and with that
qtieer, coldly acquiescent mood
which seemed a part of her, joined
the rest of the group on the tiny
veranda. The moon had risen,
sliimmering tha great expanse of
Sapphire lake, lying now like an
irregular plate of silver between
rugged mounds of black velvet.
“It’s an inlet, over there to the
right,” Hammond said. “Land on
that and you'll be safe.”
“Safe?” broke in Kay, with a lit
tle laugh. “From whom?”
“The Mounties. This is a booze
trip, isn't it?”
Kay faced the aviator. “Timmy I
You haven't gone in for bootlegging
already?"
The tone was jesting, but Timmy
was tired.
“It isn’t against the law to bring
liquor from American territory to
American territory. I’m not sneak
ing anything into Canada.”
“Who’s this fellow who hired
you?” Hammond asked. Curiosity
pulled hard at him; he was sure
“I’m Making an Early Get-Away
in the Morning."',
it was the man who' had frightened
Jeanne Towers. Timmy rubbed his
round face.
“Damned if I know. He said his
name was Lew Snade. I think he
works for Around the World Annie.”
Kay laughed, somewhat harshly,
“So thnt's what becomes of our
darling Timmy, He comes into the
new, unfettered North and Immedi
ately becomes a bootlegger.”
It was badly timed. Timmy
Moon’s nerves wero raw, from a
long session at tho stick.
“Well, at least I’m honest about
It. I'm not being a damned pre-
tenderl”
“Why, Timmy," anked Kay,-with
an air of amazement. “Who's pre
tending?”
“We've all been pretending,” said
Timmy, Moon. Jack caught the
scent of liquor on his breath; ond
evidently Lew Snade, whoever he
was, had been generous. “And I'm
sick of it. We’re up here and let’s
be honest as to why’we’re here."
“Timmyl” 'jn the reflected light
of the doorway, Hammond saw that
the girl’s face had gone white; there
was rage in her eyes. The aviator
did not notice.
“Don’t Timmy mel” he ex
claimed. “We're all broke ond we
might as well say we’re broke and
be done with it!”
“Perhaps you’d better go to bed,"
said Mrs. Joyce icily.
“I think Ihpl’fi-H good idea.” Jlamr
mond took him by the arm. "Time
for us to go, Timmy—”
“Oh, all right.” Tho round little
pilot wos grinning again. “I didn’t
mean to start any fireworks.”
Hammond pulled him oft the ve
randa nnd ■yvith an effort at a jok
ing good-night to the two women,
led him down the trail.
“Sorry I can’t put you up in my
cabin,” he apologized, when they
were well along toward town. “But
we've only got two bunks there.” ,
“Oh, I couldn’t go, anyway. I've
got to get out too early.” Timmy
rubbed his hands over his face.
“Wow, how a couple of .shots can
hit a fellow when he's tired.”
“You rather spoke out' of turn
up 'there at the house,” the miner
suggested.
Timmy raised his head, pulling
hard for air.
“Yeh, I’ guess I did," he con
fessed. “Kay v;ill hate me for that.
They've been trying to keep it dark
that tliey haven’t got a cent. But
everybody in Seattle knows it. If
it wasn’t for the money that Bruce
Kenning slips them, they wouldn’t
have a thin dime.”
Hammond gasped.
"But they've always been the rich
people of Seattlel”
“Yeh, with their heads in the air.
But they can't hold ’em up any
longer down there—that’s why they
were so glad to get out,"
A certain grimne.sa came into
Hammond’s features.
“Kay doesn’t need to worry."— -
"Sure, not with you."
“Then let’s, drop the subject,” the
miner said quietly. “Besides, hera’s
your flop joint."
Timmy Moon hfccoughed.
“Godl” he exclaimed, looking ni
the outlines of the log-cabln bed-
house, with its bear-tallow candle
flickering behind a mosquito-net
window.
Hammond slapped him on the
shoulder.
“Get to bed, Timmyl” he com
manded. “You’ve had a long day."
Then lonely, puzzled, a bit de
pressed, he went onward toward his
dark cabin, where snored McKen
zie Joe. This night of nights had
not turned out at all tho way ho
had hoped for it.
Morning, however, brought a
!!.pirit of gayety; everybody had
been tired and excited the night be
fore, Hammond told himself. Nev
ertheless, on his way from break
fast, he could not help turning to
ward the cabin-store of Jeanne Tow
ers; nor could he conceal a certain
expression of concern as she be
gan what was meant to be a
sprightly conversation about Ham
mond's guests. Then she turned to
the subject of Timmy Moon’s air
plane.
“It’s changed the whole campi”
she exclaimed, rearranging a few
containers of dried food on the al
most empty shelves. “Everybody’s
been asking me when I intended to
lay in new stock.”
“Buy me some tobacco that isn’t
half hay when you do,” Hammond
ordered, with a grin. “That’s Mc
Kenzie’s I’ve been using—he could
smoke moose hide.”
Jeanne got out a pencil and a
sheet of paper; already tliere was
the beginning of quite a list.
“I can’t get It for a week or so,”
slie said. “Mr. Moon is booked up
until then. I was up early—but tho
Slumgullion people and tho flop
house and' the hotel were already
ahead of me.”
“What’s n week?" asked Ham
mond. “You’ll bo tho merchant
queen of Sapphire lake first thing
we know.”
“I’m afraid I’m getting as bad as
you prospectors," came with an un
easy laugh. “I've been wishing for
another mining rush.”‘■Why?"
She shrugged her shoulders.
“Oh, I don’t know—the excite
ment, I guess, the thrill of going
somewhere.” Tiien, “I’m sorry.
That doesn’t sound grateful.”
“But this camp hasn't really got
ten started.” Quickly he asked,
“Jeanne, what’s bothering you?"
“Spring, maybe."
“Sure?”
Slie fenced. “What else?"
“Who was that man in tha restau
rant last night?"
“Oh, tiiull” she exclaimed, with
a smile that for the moment dis
armed him. “It was all too silly.
I could have sworn I knew him—a
boy I’d gone to school with up in—
back home!”
“It was a mistake then?"
“Oh, yes. I’d looked up hurried
ly—it was just like seeing a ghost.
Did you hear me? I almost
shrieked. The poor fellow must
have thought I’d gone crazy. I did
fool like an idiot,”
Hammond agreed that It was in
deed a silly feeling. Soon ho went
onward, again to take tho trail up
to the cottage. But he carried with
him an uneasy presentiment that
Jeanne Towers had not told tha
truth.
Kay was waiting for him, as well
groomed as if sho had come fro.n?
a beauty parlor. Hammond watched
the sun play on her hatless head,
as with her mother, they went down
the trail. Then at last, on tho banks
of Loon creek, the man pointed out
the claim which he had saved for
her, a stretch of gravel extending
alopg the stream near where up
turned stones and earth told ot tho
workings held by McKenzie Joe and
himself.
“I got them as near mine as I
could,” he announced.
“And is this a claim?” asked
Kay. “Why, it’s just the bank of
the stream!”
“Look,” Hammond answered. All
alonf! the cr'iek .vjore. ftvirienoe.>> of
labor. Here and there, disregard-,
ing the high water, men labored
at the shoveling of earth into long,
wooden sluice boxes which, picking
uiJ the water , from a flume running
from a higher point in the stream,
carried It downward on a slow de
cline.
“You just wash it through and it
becomes gold?” Kay said curious
ly. “Isn’t that cute?"
“It looks like a day laborer’s job
to me,” her mother reflected.
A shout answered her, from up
stream, where the raw-boned Ol
son ond two partners were work
ing, Instantly labor stopped else
where, Necks craned. Heads ap
peared above the higher portions of
earth, where the stream temporarily
ran between cut banks. Then men
began to converge upon the sluice
box.
“Let’s go up,” Hammond ex
claimed. “Olson’s found something
in the clean-up.”
“The clean-up?” Kay asked, hur
rying beside him. Mrs. Joyce fol
lowed somewhat in their wake,
glancing acridly about her, a wom
an who seldom smiled, who seldom
gave interest, yet who seemed al
ways to be weighing everything
within her range, Hammond turned
to explain.
“Yes, the clean-up. You see,
those Jong wooden chutes are called
sluice boxes. They've got cleats
across tho bottom, called riffles.
The dirt is shoveled in at the top
and-is-earried- along- by- the ■ w.^tor.
The dirt and light gravel flow, on
out. Anything heavier settles bit

TAG SALES UP
IN THE STATE
Raleigh, — Auto license tag
sales for the first five months
of 1937 remained approximately
50,000 ahead of sales for the
same period last year, auto
license bureau figures disclosed
today.
Indications were that by July
sraleg—wtnikl-surpass— these—far
the entire yoar of 1936.
Sales through May totaled
507,449, as compared with 460,-
6SC for the same period in 1936.
Entire 1936 sales were 550,-
073. The present 1937 trend in
dicates that figure will be pass
ed "some time in July, bureau
records showed.
May, 1937, sale-s were 15,941,
while those for May, 1936, were
16,68G*
A Style Hint
Skirts for spring may bo
straight and nplit on each side
or they may discreetly swing by
dint of any number of treat
ments—gores, umbrella pleats,
wrong-side-out tuckings — al
most anything except godets,
which are no more.
On Wash Day
Small mud stains on a clean
white skirt may be concealed
until ready for the laundry b|y
pipe clay or white water-color
paint. Or, let it dry, scrape off
with a penknife and rub over
the stain with white crayon or
school chalk. Rub with a clean
white cloth later on until the
spot disappears.
Things Worth Knowing
Soaking a broom in boiling
salt water every two weeks will
help preserve it . . . The rubber
ringers on washing machines
can be kept clean by washing
with kerosene . . . White gloves
can be kept white by washing
them after each wearing with a
soft Urush and a pure soap.

FINDS FEW DISEASED
APPLES AND PEACHES
Apple and peach diseases are
fairly well under control in
piedmont and mountain orchards
of the State, said Dr. Luther
Shaw, extension plant patholo
gist at State Collogo.
He found “an excellent set of
fruit” in all orchards visited on
a recent trip through the middle
and western parts of the State.
To make more sure of getting'
a good harvest, however, grow
ers sliould continue a systòmntia
spray program.
Two extension c!ircula.r3,
“Spray iCaleiular for Apples” and
“Spray Calendar for Peachcs’*,
should be in the hands of every
grower, Dr. Shaw stated.

better.
In The Kitchen
On’inary new waffle irons
have printed instructions telling
how to use them. If the instruc-
tionsare lucking, however, grease
the iron thoroughly with an un
salted fat (lard or oil). Heat it
slowly until it starts smoking.
Add a little waffle batter and
cook it until it is well browned.
Discard this first waffle and
then start cooking additional!

I wish you all success, old chap
May your wishes never ,be

I leave an unfinished task for
you
But God knows how I've tried
I've dreamed my dreams as all
men do, but very few come

And my prayer today is that
all these dreams may be
realized by you.
We shall meet some day in

You’ll know my claisp as I

Then all our failures will be a

YOUTH and VACATION
The p'foblem of how to get young people
to properly employ their time during vaca
tion season is a knotty one. Most of them
find themselves completely idle from the
time high schools and colleges close in the
spring until they open in tho fall. They
find themselves with nothing to do, and if
left to themselves unguided by thoughtful
parents, they will soon find something to do.
Youth is full of energy and must do some
thing. They are usually about as happy
while employed in useful occupations as
when running wild over tho country. In tho
former cáse, they form habits which tend to
make real men and women. Tn the latter
they experience too often those thrills while
“going places” which are anything but con-
diisivc to good citizenship. If left alone they
are liable to have experience which may start
their downfall. Doubtloss, idleness among
boys and girls In their 'teen ages is respon
sible for the far.t that so mnny of our bright
youno- 1 ^itv.-eon 18 and 25 nre to be
found behind prison bars.
The wi.sn iKu-ent.s 'will this summer devote
some thought in planning for the proper re-
droiitibhnl work of the boys and girls irfle
on vacation. Those who can’t send thoir
boys find irii'l.'i to .summer camps should plan
Bome kind of regular work about the house.
Let the boys keep tho lawn and premises in
Ihe <rirls to do u.seful house
work. It hurts no one to do work. But our
advice to parents would be, don’t allow your
boys an i girls to run around this summer
í-oliiiir of nn rnftponsibllily and in com
plete idleness. Remember, “.in idle mind is
the devil’s workshop”.

A STARTLING REVELATION
The Smithfield Herald submits some inter
esting figures in an edi'torial, captioned,
“Services Which A Health Unit Renders”.
One of tho grades in the Chapel Hill school
underwent a thorougli medical examination.
There w«ro S!) pupils in the grade and only
six of thnt number were found to be in per
fect he.'ijtli. A better health, compnign w««
put on. This campaign included visits in
the effort to secuva cooperntion on the part
of parent.'! for remeding the defects and weak-
nesse.s of .the.se children, At (he end of
ihree months ,examination showed them to be
one hundred lier cent physically perfect.
If those figures) are correct, it is a pretty
>>:ood indication that the same con'dition pre-
vnils in the average North Carolina third
grades. And that being tho case, it should
vcertninly cause parents at least to look more
carefully into the physical condition of their
growing children. Other schools too might
do well to follow the example set by the
Chapel Hill school.

JOHN A. LIViNGSTON
The many friends oif John À, Livingston,
and especially members of the newspnper
fraternity, rend with sorrow of his sudden
death in Raleigh last week juFt as he was
leaving his office. At the time of his death
he was serving as Supreme Court Librarian,
but ho w!is best known throughout the state
aa a newspaper man. He was a most lov-
-able—eharac't«i‘,- -and iiiusL'“of~ttTe newsïiiïîféF'
men nnd women of the slate doubtless feel
the same sentiment ns thnt uttered by Miss
Benfriee Cnbb in the Morganton News-IIerald.
Miss Cobb writes:
“John A. Livingstone, v/hose sudden death
in Raleigh last Wednesday was a shock to his
fr!'‘nds throughout tiie State deserved in
full measure all tho tributes that have been
paid to him in written and spoken word. He
had written countless obituaries during his
long and brilliant newspaper career, in addi
tion to the reams he had penned in praise and
encouragement for the living. Once he re
marked; “I never write the account of a death,
no nintter how humble tlie life for which 1
record the liiial chapter, thiit Llie tliougiit
does not go through my n.iind tiiat thifi sketch
will be clipped and kept in soinebody’s Bible”.
Though ho went into other work lie was al-
wny.s !it heart a newspaper man. Everything
that he wrote or did was with seriousness
and earnestness of purpo.?e that wn.s ciuirac-
teristic of his lifo. His gentleness' of spirit
nnd loyalty to his friends set him apart from
the crowd. Truly “30" has been written to
a noble life”.

HOW TO LIVE A HUNDRED YEARS
old?Would you like to be 100 years
Hero’s how Hygeia .says,you can:
1. Breath fresh air, 4oth day and night.
2. Exercise your larger muscles regularly
eveiy day.
3. Look on overfatigue as your enemy, and
on rest as your frichd. Take at least eight
hours of sleep. (The voice of wisdom says
one should turn'off the radio at 10.)
, 4. Drink plenty of water nt meals and also
between meals.
6. Eat temperately, partaking of vegetables
and fruit for “roughage” and health’s sake,
and sparingly of meat and sugar. Avoid
overweight.
6. Have regular bowel habits.
7. Avoid infection from both outside and
inside sources. Make a thorough recovery
from colds and sore throat.
8. Wash your hands before eating. ('Phat
the^teeth are to be clenned night and .^jnorn--
ing is taken for granted).
9. Think wholesome thoughts. Face un
pleasant situations frankly and sensibly, and
don’t worry. Keep your play spirit.
10. Have a health examination by your
physician each year; ask his advice and fol
low it.
Of course, not everyone could live to be a
hundred, even by observing the above rules,
but all Would possibly live much longer, and
certainly we w’ould all got more out of living
were we to try daily to live up to these simple
rules.

THE ALMIGHTY UNION
(Gastonia Gazette)
Fair-minded citizens who have withheld
judgment on the .C. I. 0. until they could
learn how tho Union would employ the power
it socks are now provided with tho answer,
And, thanks to the United Autoinobilo Work
ers of America, the country has been given a
pre-view of-what it may expect if the C. I. O.
achieves its announced objective of enrolling
all the nation's mass production workers un
der its banner.
This glimpse of the future came in a letter
which the U. A. W. A. addressed to 3,000 pro
perty owners in Pontiac, Michigan, notifying
the owners that unless they reduced rents to
a figure set by the Union, the Union would
instruct its members to discontinue paying all
rents aa of June 1. Not content with ■ tlie
agreement which it negotiated with the motor
car manufacturers (an agreement Incident
ally which has not prevented 37 sit-down
strikes in the plants of one manufacturer
alone subseciuent to the Union’s solemn, sign
ed assurance that thero would bo no moro
strikes) the U. A. W. A. has decided that the
rents which property ovmers may ask for
their houses. Is a matter of union concern.
If the Union is permitted to set itself up as
a judge of what rents may be asltod of its
members what assurance is there that it
will stop with that? ITow aI:(out food
prices? Will „it tell the grocer what he may
charge for a pound of butter or a dozen eggs
or a ’ïoà'f of bread? How about tho laundry-
man? Will he be told how much he can
charge for sheets or towels? And the drug
gist and the doctor and the filling station
operator? Will they be told how much they
can charge?

NO BALLYHOO
(News and Observe?,')
However the State Board of Conservation
may dispose of the problem of spending a
quarter million dolfars for the advertising of
North Carolina, it cannot afford to ignore
the advice given it by Richard H. Tufts of
Pinehurst.
Mr. Tufts, representing an interest which
has had intimate an.d succes.sful experience
promoting the virtues of a part of North
Carolina, counselled against ballyhoo. "We
have something to sell, and I think we ought
to do it in a dignified manner,” he said.
That is to say, we should advertise in a
manner in keeping with the resources we of
fer, in territories where efforts promise, re
turns, and on terms insuring thé integrity and
full performances of our own part.

Vide Use of Prints for Sports Togs
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
W HEN the world takes a holiday
at the beach, tennis court, goli course, aboard ship or wherever va
cation lures tho playful, watch
prints. We promise you that you
will see prints this summer such as
you have never seen before, armies
of them, droves of them, proces
sions of theml
It would seem as If style creators
aro just discovering that 1£ there
is one place more than another
where riotously gay prints lend
themselves dramatically to the pic
ture, it is at, tho beach and its en
virons. The vibrant blue and green
hues of the sea, the vast dome of
a glamorous opalescent sky, the
bright glare of the sun, the stretches
of golden sand call to the colors,
and to moro color and more in the
fashion parade.
So It is that prints for beach and
for swim wear have become a hob
by with designers this summer.
Needless to say, for the most part
it's linens and cottons that "steal
the show” when it comes to rollick
ing, frolicking beach and sea-going
costumes. The grand thing about
the spectacular printed linens and
cottons that are so thrillingly en
livening the pageantry of fashion
where sca-broozcs blow is that you
can wear them with all confidence,
knowing that they have been scien
tifically processed so that they won’t
shrink and they won’t lose their high
color no matter how wet the water,
no matter how many duckings-they
get, no matter how relentlessly
scorching sun rays attack. This as
surance of non-shrinkage and of col
or endurance that goes with mod
ern wash materials has, as a mat
ter of fact, proved persuasive in
encouraging the movement that Is
now on of featuring tub prints in a
big way for beach fashions and also
for swim suits.
As to whether you don linen or
cotton In the existent orgy of prints
that is being staged on land or sea
Is, entirely a matter of choice since
one is declared as good style as the
other. A truly amphibian suit done
in the modern spirit is worn by the
exultant water nymph centered in
the accompanying picture. A swim
suit of this type, made of print, the
patterning of which is as smart and
distinctive as is this patterning nnd
which is guaranteed sanforized
shrunk as is this print, will do honor
to even the most ultra-of-ultra
cruise wardrobes.
Any girl would look pert and mod
ern in the clever sport pajamas here
shown. It is one of the newer prints
that have so much swank and at
tho same time so many practical
advantages not only for beach wear
but for house wear as well. This
gaily patterned linen washes like a
hankie.
And do for fashion's sake see tho
cunning play suit to the right in the
group. Yes, you can have a cos
tume exactly like It, buy it already
made or get the material and sew
your own. The new Hungarian cot
ton prints such as have been ussd
for the making of thia fetching out
fit are selling ns fast as they can be measured off on the yard-stick. The
colors are rich and glowing and the
prints faithfully reproduce original
old-world fabrics. The trick is to
make them up in keeping with their
quaint design, in just some such peasant manner as here shown.
Full skirt of courso and rather short
is according to tho proscribed for
mula. Tune it to practical active
sports wear by choosing a dividod-
skirt pattern. Let the bodice be
backless for comfort and for "style”
on a hot summer day. And to the
entire add a smart bolerO to give it
tliat picturesque peasant flavor
which fashion thinks so well of this
season.(g) Western Newspaper Union.

PASTEL LACES FOR
WEDDING DRESSES
By CHEUIE NICHOLAS
Pastel laces for the wedding gown,
as well as the bridal party's dresses
are a new note this season, and
one that bids fair to gain in popular
ity through the season. Very pale
pastels aro used, so pale that they
aro almost white, and yet have a
special shimmer that would not be
attained by plain white. On(i of the
loveliest of these pastel wedding
gowns that wo have seen is of palest
blue linen thread, and the edge of
tho train, and the edge of the slit
skirt, aro scalloped with tha scallop
ing accented by tuiy-pleated net in
the same blue. The n&ekline, too, is
edged with the fine net pleating.
Net, as well as lacepranks'highly
for bridal gowns this season. Silk
net, particularly, is adapted to mold
ing the flgure, and when cut on a
princess line, accenting the slender
figure, it makes a truly beautiful
bridal gown. And whereas net veils
are prevalent over lace bridal
gowns, a net wedding dress is best
set off by a lovely lace wedding veil.
One veil that w’e have seen, over
a net gown, was of lace, and very
short. A bertha collar of lace was
attached to the net train, the lace,
forming borders on the sides of the
train.
Summer Velvet
Summer velvet is taking its place
in the sun. The sheer quality of the

*‘Tiuo Wanted Men'*
By FLOYD GIBBONS
Famous Headline Hunter
Y OU know, boys and girls, in some of these adventure yarns
I’ve been telling you, everything seems to happen all in a
split second. Just one—two—three and it’s all over, with action
every doggone minute.
Then there are other yarns In which tliere's darned little action, and
the suspense of the story lies in the fact that some poor devil haa to
stand still while death comes creeping up on him. That sort of adven
ture drags out for a long time. But the yarn I’m going to tell you today
Is like both of those above-mentioned typos cf adventures. U wont on
for a long time, and every doggone minute of that time was packed
with danger and suspense. And at the same time, it was so full of ac<
tion iiiat you'd iiave a hard time packing another single movement into it
It’s one of the most thrilling talcs I’ve come across In quite a
\ while, anil tho honors today go to a Chicago policeman—Al-
___!bert.Rlckcrt.
Wild Chaso After AiitomobiIc~Thieves;
It was a cool September afternoon in 1027. Al was oft duty and with
tlmQ on his hands, he went ovor to the home of his pal, Emmett Hart
nett, for a visit. After he’d been there awhile, they decided it would be
a good idea to go for a ride. Emmett got a car and they drove around
for about two hours.
They were on their way to a restaurant nt Archer and Western ave
nues when things began to happen. As they came to Rockwell street,
a small sedan passed them. There were two men in the car. and Al
recognized them both ns automobile thieves! '
Al told Emmett to turn around and follow that car. They were c.itch-
Ing up to it when the thieves spotted the auto behind them and recognlzcd
Al as a policeman. They! stepped on the gas—and the chase wns onl
The car In front of them leaped ahead. Emmett stepped on
K and followed. The 'faster they went, the taster tho smaller car
ahead traveled. Al pulled out his gun and flred ono shot. But
the car ahead didn’t stop.
Both those gas buggies wore tearing along down the street nt close
to top speed. The scenery was fairly whizzing past, and people along
the way stopped to stare at a race they had never seen tho like of
outside of a race track.
Bullets Didn't Stop Them.
Gun in hand, Al opened tho door and climbed out nn the running
board to get a belter shot at his quarry. As Emmett drove and tho car
careened along the wide street he fired again nnd again. Still tho car
ahead sped onl
Now, AI could see that they were gaining on the crooks. The small
car didn’t havo enough speed to outdistance the big ono in which they
were riding, Al continued to fire until they raachod Kcdzlo avenue, and
then his revolver was empty.
The big car hod almost caught up to tho little one now. Bit by bit
they gained until at last Al’s car was nosing up beside the one in which
tho two thieves were riding. They were running almost hood to hood
now, and Al could have reached out and touched, tho other auto, when
suddenly the| front car turned sharply.
They had ]ust reached St. Louls’avenue. .Al saw the crooks’
oar swerving toward' them, but before he had a chance to ito
nnything about It, tliere was a crash. Tho crooks sldeswlped
(Item, knocking them over to the side of the street.
•There was another ¿rash as,the car lurched into a telephone pole,"
but Al wasn't inside the car when it hit. As the two cars dame together
he was cijught between them and knocked down on the running board.
Al Wns Dragged by tho Fleeing Car.
Then, as tho smaller car veered away again, his right leg wns
pinched between its roar fender and the bumper. He felt a tug at that
leg—felt himself falling to the povement—and then he was being dragged
along behind the fleeing car.
Tho car was out of control now. The crook at the wheel was trying
to keep it going straight, but it shot up over the curb on the other side
of . the street. It crosscd the sidewalk and plunged on over a stretch
of bare, water-soaked prairie.
Dragged along behind it, Al felt a terrlflc bump as his body
was pulled over the curb. There was a terrible pain in his Im
prisoned leg where the tire was scraping the llesh away. His
back and sides were being bruised and lacerated. ^
The car traveled a hundred feet through the pratrie and by that
time Al was numb from pain and shock. Then the car bogged down in
the mud nnd came to a stop. Al’s clothes had been literally torn from
his body by then, but he still had his gun clutched tightly in his hand.
"There was no chance to use it,” he says, “but as soon as the car
.came to a halt, I began struggling to get my leg out of Its trap. Tho
driver jumped out and ran north across the prairie.
Got Him With tho Empty Gun.
“At last I got my leg loose and crawled out from under the car,
1 raised my gun and pulled the trigger, but all I got was a click of the
hammer. In the excitement I had forgotten that 1 emptied the gun dur
ing ihe fchass.” >
As the gun clicked, the second man leaped from the car and started
to run. And then Al made the. pinch of his life. Helpless and unable to
walk, much loss run after the fleeing crook, he got up on his feet and
threw the empty gun after him.
That guu went straight to the mark. It caught the crook on
the back of the head and he fell forward on his face—out cold.
At that saaie moment Emmett extricated himself from his
wrecked car and camo running across the stfeet. ' He grabbed
ihe crootf;-----------------------—--------------------------------
Emmett took them both to a restaurant a block away and there he
called the station house. Thoy took Al to the hospital, and he stayed
there for three months, getting over the injury to his leg. Tho rear tire
had ground a ridge right into his flesh as the car dragged him across
the prairie.
The crook he caught drew a fourteen-year sentence. The other one
was shot down by an Englewood policeman three days later—in another etolen car.
e-W N U Service.
A Table-Setting Ceremony
For full state banquets at Buck
ingham palace,’ tho famous crown
dining service of solid gold—each
plate Is said to be worih $2,000—is
brought from the strong-room in Windsor castle, says Michael Mac-
Donagh in "The English King." The
laying of the royal table is a cere
mony in itself. First come the "up
holsterers," whose duty it is to see
that the table is well and truly
placed in the room, and is in a fit
condition to^ear its precious and
henvy appointments. Next come tho
"table deckers” who lay the snowy
napery, the knives and forks and
spoons and the drinking glasses.
The napkins are never twisted Into,
fanciful shapes, being always plain
ly folded. The Yeomen of the Gold nnd Silver Pantries then arrange
the gold and silver appointments.
And, finally, other '‘deckers" adorn
the table with flowers and trailing
.greenery. Fingerbowls ore never
aeen at tlie royal table.
Indians Used Shell Money
The Indians used shell money or
wampum as their mediuiri j of ex
change. In the manufacture of these
shell bsads much paUent labor and a marked degree of skill and careful
manipulation were required. Their
manufacture was apparently not
confined to any class of persons
among the natives. In New Eng
land and along the Atlantic sea board wampum was chiefly of tv/p
colors; The white, ond the violet o*
■purple, whicli Tatter'varied in'sTiade
from pale or pink violet to dark
rich purple. The value of these shell
beads was determined by their color
and degree of finish. In form they
were cylindrical, being from about
oiie-eight to three-sixteenths Inch !h
diameter, nnd from one-eight to
seven sixteenths inch in length,
Wnmprn-n very early became a med
ium of exchange at fixed vaiues be
tween the whites nnd Indians, not
on’.y in merchandise, but also 1«
dollars ah'd cents.

Y'-ARDS and yards and yards of •*• entrancing silk sheers will go
floating and billowing through the
evening mode this summer. Airy-
fairy, vaporous, frothy and trans
parent tulles, nets, organzas, chif
fons, marquisettes, moussellne de
soles and other as filmy fabrics
have nn importance this season
such as they have not achieved in
years,
Tho vast yardage that goes into
the making of the new romantic full-
skirted dance frocks is almost un
believable, Certain Paris dressmak
ers ore using as much as forty
yards for a single gown—the type
(slim bodice and voluminous skirt
over stiff petticoats) that “us mod
erns” regarded as belonging to
quaint century-past scenes, but
scarcely expected to see revived in
our own day and generation. Yet
here they are dancing before your
very eyes into the current style pic
ture.
The skirts of these picturesque
gowns vary, from floor-touching to
this very new ballerino type. Noth
ing in the way of a dance frock
so startled the world of . fashion this
season as the appearance of the
waltz frock which Schiaparelli
brought forth. Now that we ore
getting used to the idea, this sou-
brette silhouette which caused such
a sensation at tho openings is de
veloping into a big vogue among
tho younger dancing sot. Tho frock
centered in the group illustrated
plays up the nev/ favorite. It is
made of white mousseline de sole
exquisitely detailed with tiny tucks
on the wnist and wee buttons that
fasten at tho back,
Some of tho more informal waltz
frocks are often of printed silk with
perhaps, shirred fullness at the waist
line Iiico a girdle or with flaring
pleats In the peasant skirt. The
bodice is neat and slim at the waist
with demure square neckline in
front and cunning sliort puff sleeves.
Ofiot that all party dresses are full
skirted, but tho fragile sheers and
gay silk prints certainly do mako
up beautifully in full-skirted ver
sions.
Tlie gown to the right and to the
left in the picture demonstrates the
effectiveness of sheer material for
the evening mode. The lovely sum
mery redingote model shows up tho
exquislteness of transparent mate
rials to a nicety. It is designed of
two tones of chlfCon—green over yel
low, with ties at the neckline and
back waistline. A brown orchid cor
sage adds the flnal accent to on
artful color study.
If there is one type of dress that
is running away with the honors
more so than the redingote styles it
is the bolero costume. Not only aro
the redingote and the bolero im
portant daytime features but they
are just as signiflcant throughout
the evening mode. Here, to tho left
in the picture, is a lovely bolero
dress for summer night, moonlight
dancing under the stars. White silk
marquisette is .the chosen medium
for ' this pretty ' ensemble. Large
floral appliques on the bolero and
the skirt add color glory to tho
scene.
Silk sheers featured for evening
gowns nro also suggested in dark
colors, tho latest being bold und
glamorous plaid transparencies or
stripes if you prefer. Triple sheers
are also shown in luscious plain col
ors or in exotic prints. Some of the
silk iriarquisettes are flock-dotted or
embroidered.
Clover nnd ornate trimnil.igs that
accent the width of swirling hem
lines include bands ot contra.sting
colors, full stiir ruchings, borders
of delicate lace, sprays of natural
looking flowers positioned effective
ly, alsn scalloped or plcotod edges.0 WoBiorn NowBpapor Union»

GRADUATES SHOULD
THINK OF GLOVES
By CnERIE. NICHOLrtS
Gloves have always been a mark
of sophistication. If this year’s crop
of sweet girl graduates realized
that, there would be a rush for
the glove counter. Most of the time,
we are so concerned over the big
items, like the dress, that we forget
about the things that go-wlth, those
little tell-tale touches.
Most schools require a simple,
■y.-.-,!thfii! white dro.'!.4. The majority
of thesp are the short-sleeved, gar
den-party variety. In the prep and
high schools, they are almost infor
mal evening dresses. Such formal
ity with no gloves? Your hands will
look much prettier \vhen accept'.ne
your diploma if they are well glcved
in snow-white glace kid. There is
Sijch a variety of little short formal
gloves in the shops that you should
have fun choosing the . pair that
particularly suits your dress.
And don’t forget gloves for the
spring proms. It’s not so much
tho basic costume aa the flnishlng
that makes a well-dressed woman.
Gloves are indispensable to even
the most divine evening dress. Nude
hands are fast fading out of the
picture. You must look feminine and
romantic these days. And don’t you
feel a lot more dressed up whon
you wear gloves? You can indulge
your taste for long ones or very
short ones as both aro correct.

OLARK GABLE was little diHer-
ent from any other small town
boy. Born in Cadiz, Ohio, In 1900,
and later living in Hopedaie, Ohio,
population 500, Clark Gable was a
regular American boy, ..fond of the
outdoors nnd ail sports. Mother
less from the time he was seven
months old, he was raised by his
grandparents until his father re
married. He held a deep love and
respect for his stepmother.
Like any other normal American
boy, Clark Gable was not sure what
position he would like to hold in
life. He thought for awhile that he
might be an architect, and later
he studied medicine at niglit school.
Ambitious but poor, he-had to work
from the time he was seventeen
years old, and his jobs were as va
ried as his opportunities. Ho was
time-keeper in a rubber factory,
call boy in a theater, an oil driller,
a telephone linesman, a surveyor’s
assistant and a lumberjack. Clark
Gable might have been anything but
a motion picture actor.
Ho became a star by traveling
the hard road of theatrical stock
companies and motion picture ex
tra, overcoming many disappoint
ments, until ho reached the pinna
cle in “It Happened One Night,”
which won tho Motion Picture
award for tho best picture of 1934.

work when ho was thirteen, hu be

of jobs that gave him such truo
understanding of the common peo
ple.
Ke drove a milk wagon in Gales
burg and he blacked boots In a
barber shop. If you could havo
looked into the future and said that
some day Carl Sandburg would be
a great poet, thoy would have
laughed you out of townl Ho be

SLANDERING THE SOUTH?
That was rather a dark picture which Dr.
William Chalmers Covert, of Philadelphia,
painted of the conditions existing among tho
mountain sections of tho south. He was
speaking in New York City and was telling
(»1 clij oenuty oi Iho southern mountains, but
said behind all this beauty was ^nn awful
condiMon of poverty and ignorance. lie
may have overdrawn conditions as he , saw
them, but we aro not prepared to dispute a
part of his statement. But here’s a state
ment ihat we do dispute, provided fie was
referring to any sections in North Carolina:
“I view with distress a dishevelled school
house with door sills rotting, window panes
frnrie floov boards broken, around whose
old stoye 20 ill-clad children huddled and
.tried to learn without more than a half doz-
f'n toyth'^^'ks. Many had come hungry over
four or five miles of impasSable roads . ,
There are no such school houses being used
in North Carolina as described by Di% Co
vert, and if he remained in the state' very
loMu', 110 oiKi knows it better than he, We in
this state do not resent the truth, even when
it may sound had, hut what pleasure a per

e.vnr'' f] tht opinion that, “The courts will
not enforce the finding that ah employer has
refusiui to bargain collectively, unless the
failure to discuss the question at issue is
clear”. Mr. Hendren went on to say.
“I doubl if a man may yet, in America, be
constHution.ally puiuyhe'.'! ifor refusing to
make an agreement , which in hia sincere
jiidgiiient is unwarranted.” Most lawyers
and many laymen who are actiuainted with

with Attorney Hendren. If the law in ques

SELLERS OF CORN SHOULD BE
iiSifiRESTED
Wo wonder how mrny farmers are ac
quainted wiHi the taw referred to in a signed
articlfe in The Enterprise last week by At-
torni'y I., it. Alorri.s ot Mocksville. The law
referred to'was: that passed in 1921 changing
the le)/al weight o|' corn in the ear, shucked
or unshucked. ^ The law changed the weight
of ear shucked corn from 70 pounds to the
bushel to 66 pounds and changed the weight
•‘I to lO )'o""ds, and nrovidud that buyers
taking a greater weight than that shall be
jint’d f!'0,1)0.' Attornev Morris pointed out
that a farmer selling 100 bushels of corn at
_._4 1 -,2C~H)or -buHliu!...and--thB--buyei’~taking-7000-
pounds, instead of 6(!00 pounds, would lose
400 pounds of corn worth a littlo more than
$7.50.
We do not know that ¡iny btiyers or pur
chasers of corn by the bushel and weighing
it under the old law or the new law, but
farmers selling should know about this law
and see that they get what i,s coming to
them when makinji. salbs.
BAPTIST PRO'I'EST DISAHMAIVIENT
The Baptist Council of Great Britian und
Ireland has gone, on record as bitterly op
posed to any move to disarm the British Em
pire. This announcement was recently made
througli a news dispatch dated at Manchester,
England, June l2th.
That’s news—news because it is seldom
that a religious organization is willing to
take an open stand against disarmament,
'rhe casual thinker might condemn the Bri
tish Baptists for their stand, but the more
careful thinker and obtserver of world con
ditions at present will readily agree that
they áre' right. If a World War is prevent
ed it will be through the influence of Groat
iBri'tian, and in order for Great Britian to
wield the influence which she should, and,
Which will ;be necessary to prevent another
World War, she must arm to the teeth.

- HOPE FOR DUMB DORAS
There is , comfort for the dumb. Not only
may ,the dumb Doras rejoice to know that
men generally prefer dumb women, but now
comes the American Medical Association with
the assurance that, “the dumber you are the
bettor, off you are”. This is the conclusion
of many nerve specialists. One specialist,
Dr. Ward C. Holstead, told the association
last week of a stock broker who had a large
part of his pre-frontal brain area removed
as a result of a brain tumor, and was there-

HOW DID THEY VOTE?
In his State, Editor C“rl Goerch claims
that he has located sovetiteen liquor establish

those' constitute a very small number of all
thd places where you can get all the
liquor you want in Charlotte. Twel've of
these joints áre 'vithin five blocks of Char
lotte’s main stores. If he is accurate in his
statement, he has come pretty near embar
rassing some outstanding bootleggers in tho
Queen City. Moreover, if there are as many
bootleggers in fhp city of Charlotte as Editor,
Goerch claims, it is little surprise that the
city; recently voted against legalized Ikjuor
stores, for certainly a bootlegger would not
vote for the very thing that he knows would
at least injure, if^not ruin, his business.

NEW YORK’S TRAILER G!TY
(Asheville Citizen)
There are still many people who heartily
dislike the automobile trailers that have
multiplied on our highways so rapidly in the
last two or three years. But the e'vidence
that the trailer is here to stay is strong and
apparently it would bo impossible to stpp the
fashion,
Florida accepted the trailer from the be
ginning and many Florida towns were prompt
in providing adequate accomodations for
these migratory homes on wheels, Nevv
York is proposing to do likewise. Tentative
plans, 1Г is stated, have been worked out for
a trailer camp near the metropolis at which
8,000 cars with trailers cftn be taken cfire of
at one timo. The idea is that this will be
needed and will prove its usefulness in con
nection with the New York World’s Fair
that is ip be held on Long* Island during 1939.
-----W-ww—iv-&Mfy— fur ir'tiTiHuT"
camp tho status of the trailer is hardly open
, longer to debate.

Tiiere may not be anything new under tho
sun in reality, but certainly new things are
boing found. About the latest we have
read of are those tiny blind white insects
which have been found in caves out in Ne
vada. Scientists are becoming quite inter
ested in them as nothing of the kind has ever
before been known. 'T h ey are .said to'
'be entirely unresponsive lo light, but are ex
ceedingly sensitive to vibrations. And al
though blind, they quickly hide upon the ap
pearance of tourists. This habit possibly
accounts for the fact that the insects have
not heretofore been found by man,

“Oh, I see. 'Then you stop shov
eling and pick up the gold.”“Not that easy. It takes n long
time for those riflles to fill up. Then
everything they’ve c au g h t is
scraped out. After that the miners
pan it.”
"Pan it?”
“Yes—there’s one.” He pointed
to a discarded gold pan on the
creek’s bank, flat bottomed nnd
with sharply sloping sides, “They
pul the scrapings in thoro and drip
water into it, swishing it around.
It takes a lon'g time to get rid of everything but the nuggets."
, “Oh, I’d love to see a nugget
again. Like those you guvu me
in Seattle.”
Hammond laughed.
“It looks like you’ll get your wish.
Olson’s pretty excited.”
Tho big man wns running nhnut
with both hands in tho air. Other
minors attempted to halt him, but
only momentarily. At last lie saw
Hammond and headed for him.
“I toltl you it was a new Klon-
dykel” lie shouted. “Look what I
found in the clean-up 1”
He opened his clutched hands. In
each was at least a dozen nuggets,
somo no larger than a plnlicad, oth
ers bigger than peas, > Kay squealed
with Interest.
“Isn’t it perfectly thrilling?” she
asked. There wns a queer, fever
ish glint in her eyes. Her hands
opened nnd closed spasmodically.
“Just to think oi digging up the
ground and picking out gold!”
Olson veered again into mad gy
rations, at laat to bring up short
before Mrs. Joyce and extend his
treasures to her.'
“Look at Mother,”, tho girl said.
“She’s actually interested 1”
’»It'S. Joyce Was askiiig
and with an extended finger was
turning over the nuggets as they lay
jn the giant paws of Oison- The big
man stood there, grinning; some
what surprised, Hammond saw Mrs.
Joyce smila quite gayly. He
--laughed.------------------------------------
“Gold certainly is anybody’s in-
“No—" she hesitated. “Of course,
I couldn’t do that.”
“Then I’ll try to scare you up
some men tomorrow. I didn’t have
nny idea you’d actually want to work
this. I just laid it aside so you could
say you owned a placer.”
“Wliy shouldn’t I work it?”
“Couldn’t it wait until wo get
back from VancouverV”
“Vancouver?” she asked.
“Or,” he bantered, "shall we be
married here, by Sergeant Terry
of the Mounted Police?”
“OhI” She pushed him playfully.
“I thought for a minute you were
serious!” Quickly she turned. "Oh,
Mother!” she cried almost petu
lantly, “aren’t you ever coming?”
Still smiling, Mrs. Joyce parted
frorri the voluble Olson, and then
a few feet away, raised a hand,
wiggling her fingers in an extra ges
ture of parting. Kay straiglitoned.
“Well,” sho asked, in a tone
rneanf to contain banter, “is he
Clark Gable or John Barrymore?"
“He’s a very nice man,” snapped
Mrs. Joyce, her features again emo
tionless. “And that’s an end to the
matter.” Shortly after that, Kay
complained of a headache and led
tho way back to the cottage. Ham
mond returned to his work with
McKenzie Joe.
— It—was--evening—when—he—once
more took tiie trail upward. This
time ho did not hurry. The man
was thouglitful, obsessed. There
was something strange about Kay,
her nervousness, her quiclcness.
Higher he swung along tho trail,
at last to veer .under, tho jutting
point oi land which ran out from
beneath tho cottage; tho trail here
plane, skimming high over the
mountains in the moonlight; it was
the third trip tlio pilot had made
to Wrangell that day. At last the
ship banked in wide circles and
with the motor cut oil, dropped
downward to tho surface of tlie
moonlit Sappliire and tlie nicety of
a safe landing.
“Timmy’s talcing chances*” said
Hammond.“Oh, he’s gone mad with a little
money.”
“Well, don’t we all?”“I suppose so—although it's been
so long since I've seen any.”
Tills was a different Kay, strange
ly frank, calm ly bringing up a sub
ject which Hammond liad btien re
luctant even to mention.
“I want to talk about that,” ho
said at last.“And I still want to talk about
you,” she countered. “About your
plans.”
He was silent a moment. Then:
“Did I build loo pretty a picture
down there in Seattle?”
“Don’t be silly. I’m thinidng of
you. Has everything turned out tho
way you wanted it?”
“Of course,” lie answered,- with
a little surprise. "Naturally we’re
not making a lot out of those Loon
creek placers.”
“Blit you've got some other
claims, worth a lot moro.”
“Yes—if wo can only And tho
gold.”
“That’s what you mentioned last
night.” j
- “Yes;^’-----------------------—------------

Kay shrugged her shoulders.
“But Mother—!” she exclaimed,
iand did riot finish the sentence.
They went tin then to examine the
sluice box. After a time Hammond
followed Kay’s glance as she once
more looked bacic. Olson arid Mrs.
Joyce were still talking. At last,
Kay said, ahnost fretfully;
“But, Jack, all this isn’t getting
me started on my gold mino.”
He looked at her. “Why the hur
ry?” ...
“But isn’t that what a perron is
supposed to do, the minute you get
in camp?” . ' .
Jack stared. “You’re not seri
ous?”
“Of course I’m serious, silly. Wliy
else should I have a gold mine?"
“A placer claim ,, since you are
~ htrx'iüUb,” iie-corfcctetl-hE-p—ie-uglv-
ingly. “But I just laid the thing
aside for you—merely for fun.”
“Then you mean there isn’t any
gold in it?”
“Of course, I hope tliere’s gold.
"But what's the need, Kay? There’ll
• be enough coming out of Joe’s claim
and mine.”
“But thal wouldn’t be my claim,
Wúulu it? I want to iocl it’s really
mine—that I got it out of tiie
ground.”
"But you couldn’t do the actual
laboiv"
“Why Aro You So Nervous, So
111 at Ease?”
followed the olift almost to the ve
randa, where it jutted straight up
ward and came out nt the cabin
steps. Suddenly ho raised his head.
Low voices which had come faintly
from the rear of the building now
had shifted closer until ho could
hear every word.
“And-I’m telling you. Mother,
thnt I’m not going to stand for it!
I won't—1 won't I
“How are you going to help your
self?” The-stisually calm tones of
Mrs. Joyco wero high-pitched, ex
cited. “You live your life and I'll
livo mine. But I'll toll you this—I
iiad all the damned hypocrisy I
wanted with your father.”
“But, Mother, this terrible Ol
son!”
“That’s enough about Olson!”
Mrs. Joyce cried out. “I’ll bo tho
judge in that matter!”
Desperately ITammond bi.-iiiin to
whistle. The voices ceased. A mo
ment later, Kay Joyce mot him at
the door, her usual vibrantly plons-
ant self,
“Oh, come in,” she said and
kissed him. "We had begun to
-wonder-vAat-on-oarth had-become^
of you!”
Late that night. Jack Hammond
stood with Kay on a jutting point
overlooking tho valley. Here and
there a faint light gjeamed in the
settlement, a vagrant^ candle or the
dying embers of a prosp'ector’s eve
ning fire.
“Kay,” said the man almost
abruptly, “I v/ant to talk to you—
about ourselves,”
■ “And I want to talk to-you about
yourself., Why nre you so nervous—
so ill at ease?”
“I?” Tt amazed him. “It’s all
news to me. Maybe;I’ve been over
anxious—to please you.”
“Perhaps that’s it.” Slie clasped
his hand with both of hers, raising
it to her breast. The yield of soft
ilesh fired him; He whirled and
caught her tight to him, his kisses
■hiirnin» her—he felt the touch of hor
soft hair against his cheelc, the
brush of an earlobe on his fore
head as, eager, roving, he bent to
caress the smoothness of her throat.
“I’ve waited so long for you,” he
begged. -' 'All- my lifc...
“Jack dear,” sha gasped, free
ing herself. "You say you want me
—and then try to crush me to death.
Rut,” she shivered deliciously,
“how I love it!”
From afar carhe the roar of nn

Whero aro they?”
'■Tho claims? Back on tiie flats,
awny from Moose rivor.” I
“Biit how would you go about'
finding gold away off there?”
A' long period of silence followed.
“I don’t know how Joe will feel
about mo tolling that,” came fi
nally. '
"But you’re just telling me.”
“Yes, that’s true.. If tlio •theory
ever got out this camp would go
crazy staking claims."
“And you’re afraid I might pub
lish it?" slio asked, with a queer
little laugh.
“Oh, Kay! Of course not. Every
thing I've got is yours—even my
thougKts.”
Sho pressed his arm.
“You’re awfully sweet, do you
Icnow it?”
“I’m crazy about you—I know
thnt,” hd said, with a short laugh.
“I can say the same to you. And
oh. Jack, I want you to strllce it
rich—richer than nny othor man on
acrih!”
Ho looked out over the shadowy
valley.
Somewhere over thero," hc said
throatily,'“is enough gold to make
us all millionaires' a -dozen times over. Tons of gold; Kay—^the de
posits of thousands of year», just
waiting for someone to come olong
and wash it out of tho gravel.^’
"But where?” she Insisted. He
ran a hand across his forehead. A
long moment passed. Jack Ham
mond was struggling with his prom
ises to Joe. Then suddenly the se
cret flooded forth, tho belief that
somowhero, far in tho past, Moose
rivor had run in n different and
long-abandoned bed, there to de
posit alluvial gold, washed down
from the hills by thousands of fresh
ets and spring floods.
“Onco we flnd that old rivor
bed—” lie said. “But whero will you
find it?”
“That’s the problem. There’s
nothing to indicate where it might
be. We’re sure it’s thero, some
where. But that’s all we know."
"Then it’s like looking for the
proverbial needle."‘.‘Just about,” Jack agreed, “We’ll
just havo to keep on putting down
test holes; ono of them mny turn
out.”
“Isn’t that rather silly?”
Hammond shrugged his shoulders.
“ All we can do is follow Joe’s
hunches—as to whore he thinks that
river should have run. Of course,
other persons might go at it scien-
tifically.”
“Ar.d firitl wii^', they wera lookins
for.”
“Perhaps.”
“Then v.'hy don’t you?”
“Yoii don’t know Joe’s breed.
They distrust scientists. Any old
prospector’will tell you that an ongi-
-nefci'-or-gcologist can ruin tho-ftne.st.
mine ever discovered. Oh, they’re,
funny!”
Kay tossed her head.
“I can’t see anything funny about
it. Why should you give up every
thing in life just because your part
ner is—what do you call it—
bushed?”
“But he’s my partner, Kay! Wo’ve
fought the North together.”
• “Thai’s carrying chivalry too far.
You’d both be ’ better oil with sci
entific help.”
“Of course we would, Kay. But
I couldn’t sell Joe that idea In a
month of new moons. And he’d
rave if he found out that I went
after advice myself. Besides, wiiero
would I go—where I know I could
be safe?”
She looked t)p.
“You haven’t thought of Bruce
Kenning.”
—lIarn.raDndls_f!}!ns._jj;idensid.______
“No, I liadn’t.”
“My father trusted him for years
and wasn’t sorry. He did all that
work down in Peru and Bolivia.”
She added bitterly: “We wouldn’t
bo‘ penniless now,it he hud iislened
to Bruce.” Agnin there was silence.
At last Kay clenched her hands
and walked to the edge of the ledge.
.Slowly Jack foUov.’od, entranced by
the picture of her in the moonlight.

The Good Old Days.
CANTA MONICA, CALIF.—
О Taking pen in hand to write
Uncle Sam ’s check for that next
installm ent, I look longingly
'oackward to what I'm sure was
the golden age of our genera
tion.
It was the decade that began soon
after the turn of the century and
ended with 1914,
Kings lolled se
curely on comfy
thrones and dicta
torships in strong-^
nations were un
dreamed of.
Without sliaklng '
the foundations of
the financial temple.
T o d d y Roosevelt
was filing the alliga
tor teeth of preda
tory wealth.
People laughed at the mad suggestion that there could
ever be 'another groat war—let
alone a world war.
With suffrage in prospect, women
were going to purify politics.
Taxes were a means unto on end
anjl not the end of our means, ^
'Standaras oflfving cliniboU faster
than did tho costs of living.
Automobiles were things to ride
in nt modornto speed, not engines
to destroy hliman life with.
Millions actually believed thnt, if
prohibition by law ever became ef
fective, drunkenness would, end and
crime decrease.
Yes, I’m sure those wore Indeed
the happy days—the era when the
Twentieth Century limited started
running and W, J. Bryan stopped.

Syntheilo Imitations.
W E STOPPED at a wayside sta
tion advertising pure orango
juice; there’s one every few rods.
Next to autograph hunters, oranges
are the commonest product of Cali
fornia.
Tho drink was tho right color.
But there didn’t seem to be any
orange in it, Tho best you could
say for it was that probably its
mother had been badly frightened
by an orange.
I mado inquiry, and an expert
told me some roadside vendors—
not many, but some—were peddling nn е.ч.чопсв compounded of chemi
cal flavoring and artificial extracts
because it kept, better than.the gen

I thought* America had reached
tops in the gentle arts of substitu

gan making pumpkin pies out ol
squash and maple syrup out of corn
stalks and buckwheat llour out oi
a low grade of sawdust—anyhow, it
tastes like that—and i^nported Eng
lish sole out of the lowly fiounder
and scallops out of skate fins. But
when, in a land whore a strong man
couldn’t tote a doliar’.s worth of
oranges on his back, thero are par

Poor Li(fIo Rich Men.
T ET us take time oft to pity the
^ poor little rich man who owns a
large but lonesome sea-going yacht.
During the depression, tho species
grew rare—there' were monoy lords
then who hardly had ono yacht to
rub against another—but, with bet
ter days, , a fresh crop lines the
coasts.
No matter how rich, the owner
feels he must use his floating pal
ace, He may bo content with a
saucer of processed bran and two
dyspepsia tablets, but no yacht crew
yet ever could iceep soul and body
together on anything less than dou
ble sirloins. So lie goes cruising—
and gosh, how ho docs dread it!
For every yachtsman who really
ge»a joy out of being afloat, there
usually is another to wlium Ihe
great heart of the nation should go
out iu sympathy. You almost cx-
ppct to iind him putting ads in the
paper for guests who can stand the
strain; everything provided except
the white duck pants.

Problems on Wheels.
A MERICA’S newest problem goes
on wheels. One prophet says
by 1038 there’ll be ч million trail
ers and three million people aboard
them. Roger Babson raises the ante
—within twenty years, half thé pop
ulation living in trailers and all the
roads clogged.
So soon the trailer-face is recog
nizable. It is worn by Mommer,
riding along behind,' while Poppet
smiles pleasantly as he drives tha
гаг in solitary peace—getting away
from it all. Have you noticed how
many trailer widows there are al
ready?
But as yet nobody reckons with
the chief issue: think of the in-
_creosinp! mortality figures when tlus.

N OW, Milady, thnt you’ve
' seen nir three, \№ich
will you choose, tho lovely
dance frock, an easy-to-sow
runabout model, or a slick
all around the clock dross to flat
ter your every move and moment?
It’s a personal question but one
you’ll surely want to toy with
since Sow-Your-Own makes the
answer so easy.
Tlie romantic fashion at tho left
will make memorable occasions
of your summer parties as only a
lovely appearance can. Its two
pieces ore young, cool nnd

style—it differs only in length, and
either will bo picturesque in mar
quisette, dimity, or organdie.
A Tip for Tea Time.
When you’re keeping up with
tho Joneses, wear this stylish all
occasion, dress. It jvlll do great
things for you socially, and, fig
uratively speaking, it will cut
inches from those high spots nnd
make you feel pounds lighter.
Think of what that means to chic
and comfort when things get hot
out your way. Dark sheer crepe
is the material that lends to p
charm to this creation.
Easy to sew and always ready
to go is this new spectator frock
for yotmg women and those who
want to turn back tho clock, With
this number handy there’s no need
to pause for reflection about what
to wear. And thnt holds good
whether you’re bound for sports,
business, or society. It is becom
ing aa a sun tan, as simple to sew
as a dress can Jjo, and a cinch
to launder. Why not mnko a car

rwashinglon.-The good old days
1529 nro not coming back—are
U en route—nro not even desired
Iv "lo -Now D'^al This has boon I id by President Roosevelt many
ILs but its present importance
L in somo figures recently sub-
lillcd to n group of economists by
)r Harold G. Moulton,' president
I ihe Brookings institution,
I Dr. Moulton made some very in-
Lcsting comparisons with 1929 em-
Lymcnt and production figures.
Ш10 con.4truod the chiof thought to
- that tli6 country has not arrived
Û at a situation where enough of
crylliiiig ioi' everybody can bo
.oduccd by people working only
fody liours a week. '
J But moro significant, in the view
II some ot the New Dealers who
lave been studying his attitude,
A that tlic doctor made a liberal
Istimale about the number of men
tho could bo employed—in addition
1) those • working at present—in
Kliat are classed as “the-durable
roods intlustrie.s—primarily indus-
■tics wliicli produce machinery iind
lllier tilings which nre not used up,
|ut generally ndd to tho country’s
Iroductive capacity. As for exam-
ile, a now blast furnace, a now
icwspapor press, new canning or
mtlie mnclilncry—in fact, tnachin-
Sry of nny sort.I Dr. Moulton estimated that moro
[han oiKht million more men would
! employed in the durable goods
I'dustry it 1920 conditions wore to
to equalled. This does not mean
liat precisely that number less are
•mployecl now in the durable goods
nduslries thnn were in 1929. Allow-
inces aro mado for increase in pop-
[latlon and other factors.'
But tho chief point here made by
Ihe New Deal economists is this
lUge number of persons employed
n tho durable goods industries was
me ot tlie really vital things wrong
Wh the then situation—one of the
Important factors which resulted in
[liO collapse—one of tho contribut
ing cnURcs to the situation which
Ihe Now Uoal is seeking to corroet.
osic b Simple
President Roosevelt does not be-
leve such a large proportion of the
:ountry’s labor should be used in
Ihe durable goods industries as was
bo employed in 1929. His logic is
)iraplo though not very widely UR-
Jerstood,
His point is that too much of the
learnings ot the big corporations in
|lie good years preceding the crash
was plowed back into the business.
[Too many units in tho various in-
jlu3trlo3, lie points out in convorsa-
llions, dccided that business was
pood, they could sell moro goods
llhan they could make—so they built
Ian additional plant.
I The result was, that instead of
|lhc-se earnings being distributed,'
whether to labor, to stockholders,
or, by rsduced prices, into creating
la larger purchasing power which
■would absorb more goods, they
■were frozen into plants for the prod-
lucts oi whicli the day-' came when
llbero wns no market. -
I Immediately -the situation spread,
|laek ot confidence was inspired, peo
ple began to save and hoard monoy,
land the factories stood, as he likes to
|s“y. "stark and idle.”
1 So the New Deal economists would
oread tho day when Dr. Moulton’s
lestimate ot how many more men
Icould be employed in the durable
Ipods industries might be realized
111 actual employment. They would
Psuro another 1929 crash would fol- |low very speedily.
¡Popularity Declsnea
Probably the decline of Pre.sjdent
■Roosevelt’s popularity is much
■more real—certainly it is mt'tch
Imore obvious-on Capitol Hill than
¡1- IS out in tlie country. Senators
land representatives in private con-
r,“‘'^“lions admit that they believe
I tie President has lost only a frac-
l “i>n ot his following in tho country.
I Proof of that pudding will not
|i>5! evident until there are some sig-
pinoant primaries, in which some
Iwt-New Deal Democrat puts up a
real battle.
I But on Capitol Hill there aro a
l^rprisinB number of Democrats
Ij^scem anxious that the Prosi- Iflent s toot should slip a little. It is
l№e ot the reasons why tho flght
l“6smst enlargement of the Supreme
I'oiirt has become so importantl y so bitter.
I of the insurgents do not ex-
IP an why they are insurgiiig—they
that in each particular case,

Third Term Up Again
Tliey are assuming-and it seems
to many observers to be a violent
assumption—that the President will
not seek a third term. Strangely
of action,if sufflciently successful, may force
the President to take another nom
ination. It may turn out, if what he
will regard as the reactionaries in
the Democratio party are appar
ently in control and purpose to
name some man he will not believe
will carry out his policies, that Mr.
Roosevelt will conceive it his pa-
friotic duty to run for a third term.
This possibility, however, does not
seem to enter at all into tho logic
of the insurging Democrats. They
are franlily hostile to the nomina
tion ot any of the men who they fee]
sure would win Roosevelt’s approv
al. It is not so much Secretary of
Agriculture Honijy A. Wallace or any
other of the half dozen New Dealers
who have 'frequently been mentioned
for the White House in the recorft past.
Boing politicians themselves, the
senators and representatives who
hope to regain control of their party
at the next convention and put a
man more satisfactory to them in
the White House, realize that any
thing mny happen in the three long
years to come to trip any particular
'candidate. So it is not individuals
they are planning to beat—it is re
ally, in essence, the Now Deal it
self.
It is not so much that they want
-tD-irralrcTîTiy-movo-tlîat-Mr-. Rôosë^
velt would regard as a baclcward
step. But they just do not yearn
lo go any further forward. They
think they havo gone plenty far al
ready in revamping thn country’s
economic structure. They want a
“breathing spell.”
The same logic spells plenty of
trouble for Mr. Roosevelt next ses
sion unless there should bo some
convincing demonstration that tho
country is behind the President, not
the insurgents.
Labor Bill Hits Snag
The wholo trouble about tho max
imum hours and minimum wages
bill, so far as getting it through con
gress is concerned, lies iri that dif
ferential between wages in the
North nnd wnges in the South.
In ono wny or another the gov
ernment ha I always avoided mak
ing any movo which would inter-
iero with tho generally accepted
idea that tho wage scale in the
South should not be so high as it
is in the North.
The South has drawn many indus
tries from tho North as a result
of this differontial, plus certain oth
er advantages, such as smaller cost
for heating plants due to warmer
climate, etc. It has been justified
by tho sllglilly lower cost of living
in the South for the workers. For
instance, many southern mills, lo
cated in small communities, aro
worked by pennlo who live on tiny
farms, which, through tho labor oi
their wives and children—their own
when unemployed—provide them
with vegetables, chickens and some
times even a little pork.
The movement of tho textile In
dustry to the South is a good illus?
tration.
Blit naturally the employers of
the North, and the labor union lead
ers, and those who agree witli. Pres
ident Roosevelt and John L. Lewis
about building up buying power
among the classes of labor now un
able to buy luxuries, dissent violent
ly.It so happens that Chairman Wil
liam P. Connery, of the house labor
com.mlttee, comes from Massachu
setts, which has been hard hft for
many years by this idea of a wage
differential in favor of the South.
Naturally he Is vigorously against
moking any excepiions which would
discriminate against New England,
in the new wages and liours bill he
has introduced at the President’s
request.
But just as naturally southern
senators and representatives are
not anxious to see anything done by
the feilernl government that would
have the effect of removing this dif<
forcntial. v/hich for some years now
has been building up southern in
dustry.
Question of Politics
At the same time the southern
senators and representatives are
politicians, and the workers havo
more votes than the employers—or
even the chambers of commerce.
And it mfght be assumed that the
local storekeepers would be in sym
pathy with tho workers. So it is
just possible there may be more votes in eliminating the differential
then in keeping it—even for the
southerners.Thatls just speculation, of course,
for thero is no indication yet that it
is working in that direction. The
indications are that the'southern
legislators regard the differential as
an advantage, and will flght to keep
All of which points to labor trou
bles in the South sooner or later,
for John L. Lewis is very set on tho
idea of building up buying power,
and not purely from an altruistic
■sittndiroiiit-ai-alli—The-C- T-.Qv has
two objections to groups of under
paid labor. One is that they are
probably competing with labor the
wages and hours of vrhich the union
is trying to improvo. liie other is
that it v.’ants more . people btiying
automobiles, electric refrigerators,
radios, etc., which are produced by
comparatively well paid labor. ’The
more buying the more jobs, Jib
more iobs thé more union dues.

T he " F IR ST ARTIST
O F HIS TIME
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON
JUNE 23, 1822—just 115 years ago—there was born
in Philadelphia a boy who was destined to become
not only “the first artist of his tim e” but also one of
the most versatile geniuses with the pencil and brush
that this country has ever known. Because of that
versatility, Am ericans of a later generation owe him
a great debt of gratitude. In the days when the art
of photography was in its infancy, he m ade for them
a pictorial record of contemporary Am erican life and scenes
of historical interest which are alm ost photographic in their
fidelity to fact,
Felix Octavius Carr D arley
was his nam e and three-
quarters of a century ago the
signature, “D arley,’' on a
picture was fam iliar to more
Am ericans than that of any
other man. But with the
passing years both the artist
and the importance of his
work have been forgotten
, and they are known only to
the few who are interested in
more than just the obvious
facts of American history.
Darley wos the son of an Eng
lish actor, named John Darley,
who camc to America soon aCter
the close of the Revolution. The
senior Darley intended to havo
hia son sock a mercantile career
nnd at the ago of fourteen the
toy was placed in a business
house in Philadelphia. While em
ployed as a deck, his talent for
drawing became apparent and
his fellow employes had many
a hearty laugh at the caricatures
which he drew of them and of
his employer.
Some of these caricatures at
tracted the attention of the editor
of the Saturday Museum who
bought them, paying young Dar
ley a larger sum for a few
sketches that he had dashed, otf
nt odd momenta than ho could
corn by a week’s work aa a clerk.
.Encouraged by his succesis, the
“Leatherstocking," nnd had flxed
in its mind a real concept of
Cooper’s ‘‘noble red man.” Dar
ley also prepared a set of skeches
for Dickens’ novels and caught
the spirit of tho English writer’s
immortal characters quite as
successfully as any English artist
could have done.While carrying on this work of
book illustration, Darley was also
engaged by a number of illustrat
ed magazines nnd newspapers
and within a short time the cred
it-line of “Drawings by F. O. C.
Darley,” or simply the name
“Darley” on a picture, was aa
familiar to the rending public
of that time as some of the well-
known trademarks are to read
ers of today. Next he was em
ployed by the United States gov
ernment to make designs for gov
ernment bonds and national bank
notes nnd they were also used ,
on a great variety of commercial
paper. If you will dig into that
old trunk up in the attic some
day and And old promissory
notes, receipts, etc., which are
embellished with steel engrav
ings of Indians, symbolical fig
ures, such as “Columbia” and
the like, the chances are' that
you will be looking at pictures ,
which were made from drawings
by Felix 'Octavius Carr Darley,
In addition to his'Outline draw
ings, Darley also produced a
■ number of other works, some in
Ichabod Crane’s School.
youthful artist determined ■ to
moke this his life work,. ilifl flrst commission was to
illustrate a number of humorous
works for a Philadelphia publish
ing house, Darley w'as a keen ob-
siBrver of human life ond his apt- '
ness in sketching humorous situ
ations and in telling jokes without
words made him popular with
the public who began watching
for his drawings. In this respect
he was the flrst of a school of
distinctively American pictorial
humorists which was to include
such men as E, W Kemble, A, b.
Frost, Oliver Herford and some
of our modem cartoonists,
“Ichabod Crane” Comes to Life.
In 1848 Darley moved to New
York and two years later the
American Art Union, invited hinr:
. to illustrate Washington Irving’s
humorous writings. He prepared
two sets oi designs, one uupicting
tho scenes in “Rip 'Van Winitle” ■
and the oilier “Tlie Legend of
Sleepy Hollow.” In tho latter
• America St<w for tlio first time
that scarecrow-like school teach
er, "Ichabod Crane,” come to
life and America was delighted
with it. Darley’sdelineation of oth
er characters in Irving! s stories
did much to increase interest in
that author’s work and although
his illustrations were only out
line drawings they at once took
the popular fancy and estab
lished Darley’s fame.
In 1850 he made outline
sketches for Hawthorne's novel,
“The Scarlet Letter” and in tlie
same year prepared similar il
lustrations for another romance
, of New England life, Sylvester
Judd’s "Margaret.” One interest
ing fact about these drawings is
that he undertook them on his
own responsibility, since th e
publishers had not ordered them,
nnd therefore they possess more
of the characteristics of the auth-
___or’s genius than almost any of his
other sketches. But even tliougli
the publishers ot Hawthorne’s
and Judd’s books had not or
dered Darley's drawings, they
were quickly accepted when he
submitted them.

the National Academy of Design.
, ^vA Pictorial Historian.
Of greatest interest to Ameri
cans of a later generation are his
pictures of historical scenes. In
these he covered the whole sweep
of American history from Co
lonial days down to his own time.
One of his most famous pictures
is that of the wedding procession
as described in Longfellow's
“The Courtship of Miles Stand-
Ish” which appeared in 185S.
Noteworthy, too, were his paint
ings depicting scenes in the Rev
olution. They included such pic- '
tures as “The First Blow for
Liberty,” which shows a group of
patriots ilring from behind a
.«itone wall nt the British red
coats as they^retreaLirqm^^^
ington; “'Washington at tho Bat
tle of Monmouth” ; and his stir
ring “Wyoniing Valley Mas
sacre,” showing an attack b y
Iroquois Indians on settlers in
New York and Pennsylvania dur
ing those dreadful days, made
memorable by the romances ot
Harold Frederic, Robert W. Cham
bers and Walter D. Edmonds.
Better known, perhaps, than
any of these Revolutionary war
pictures are those which Darley
made commemorating the hard
ships and heroism of the emi
grants across the great plains
of the West. Although idealized
In some respects, yet it is prob
able that no other artist has come
os near to depicting faithfully
those days of the “covered wag
on” as did Darley. One of his
pictures, “Emigrants Attacked
by Indians,” was among the four
ordèredliy Prince Napoleon when“
Darley’s reputation had spread
across the sea and it is often
reproduced in books dealing w/.th
life on the v.’cstcrn frontier as
typifying that romantic era in
our history.
The next period in history
which engaged Darley’s atten
tion wus the Civil war and he
made many pictures deBcriptive
of its outstanding incidents. Oi
course, by this time photography
had been developed to such a
state of perfection that it was
possible to record, through the
eye of the camera, history while
it was happening. That is whnt
Matthew Brady, the' “flrst news
cameraman,” did from 1861 to
1BC5. But Brady could not bo
everywhere to photograph all tho
scenes worth preserving. Fortun
ately for posterity, tho pencil and
brush of Felix Daley admirably
supplemented Brady’s camera in
preserving for it a pictorial rec
ord of that great conflict.
Civil War Pictures.
' Most famous of all of Darley’s
Civil war pictures is his “Sher-.
man’s March to the Sea,” steel
engravings of whicli hung on tho
\valls ci so , many American
homes (in the North, of course!)
until changing tastes in pictiires-
for-the-home relegated them ■ to
the attic. Nearly as. famous as
this picture, w.as Darley’s “Dahl-
gren’s.Cavalry Charge at Fred
ericksburg” which attracted uni
versal admiration' when it was '
exhibited at tlie Paris exhibition
in 18G7.
Darley was already well known
abrnsd. by that time, for he had
visited Europe in 1804 and added
largely to his stock of pictures.
Mony of these were published , in
book form Jn 1868 under the title
of "Sketches Abroad with Pen
and Pencil.” Ills water - color
“Street Scene in Rome” was one'
of the outstonding canvascs at
the Centennial exposition in Phil
adelphia in 1870—which proved,
for onco at least, that a prophot
Is not without honor in his owncountryi
But for all the farne that ha
won as a painter, Darley re-
mnined iB great jllustrntor to the
last. In 1888 he produced a not
able series of drawings to illus
trate Shakespeare’s plays. Then
two years later death stayed his
hands. He died in Claymont, Del.,
on March 27,1888.
“Painting of scenes .from com
mon life is of late appearance
in America,”, observes Frank
Jewett Mather, Jr., in the chapter,
devoted to “Genre Painting be
fore the Civil war” in tho “The
American Spirit in Art’' ("iTale
University Press "Ciironicles of
America”), “The interest which
our forefathers felt in themselves
was not extended to their social
nnd business relations. Appar
ently they were too busy doing,
to observe themselves in action.
Even the early illustrators, bar
ring a few political cartoonists,
avoided genre at a moment when
England and France were leaving
the fullest and ablest records of
their everyday affairs.,.The glo-
ington Irving's 'Rip Van Winkle and ‘Legend of Sleepy Hollow'
and after Judd’s ‘Margaret’ aro
among the best thhigs of tha
sort that the century produced
anywhere.”"... Through all this period
lithography was serving a useful
suburtistic purpose. Books cn
geology nnd botany, needing col
or, were usually thus illustrated;
so wore scientific government re
ports and the bookslon tlie In
dians. Blit tiie results, while of
ten excellent for their purpose,
do not concern the student of art.
For standard sets of American
prose writers, notably Irving and
Cooper, line-engraved illustration
seemed indi.spensable. It wos,
however, generally limited to a
frontispiece or title vignette.
“Darley can be tragically dra
matic, as. in ‘The .Death of King
Philip’ for. tho. Arti.sts’ Edition
of Irving’s ‘Sketch Book’ an d
again ho was the only conceiv
able American illustrator of the
broad humor and melodrama
of Charles Dickens. Though later

of antiquarlanism is charactoris-

well exemplified in the vignette

simple and even obvious, b u t

Darley's innumerable trial-draw- ings and sketchbook notes attest

FAMOUS WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT
Washington. — There is more to
the uneasiness of ccrtain high labor
offlcials to government {Ixing of
minimum wages than is being made
known. Wha,t some of. them think
about it down in their hearts would
not arouse any enthusiasm if stated
in plain English. It would r;ot be
good politics, and in politics a man
who has become a labor leader is
apt to know his way around.One objection is stated frankly.
They aro afraid that if the govern
ment fixes a minimum wage it will
tend to become the standard .wage.
A good deal of publicity has been
given to this. But most of it is just
tallc. A good many workers suspect
that the social security payroll taxes
aro more menacing to pay ad
vances than nny governmental edict
that not less than a certain amount
can be paid for a definite job in a
definite place.Every once in a while there is n
hint that the fixing of wages is a
matter which should bo left to col
lective bargaining. That comes pret
ty close to being ths heart of the
real objection. The same danger
was realized by labor leaders dur
ing the NRA regime. Obviously if
the government should eventually
control all working conditions, par
ticularly hours and wages, the im
portance of union labor ■ leaders
would shrink considerably. There
might even come a time when work
ers would doubt the wisdom of hav
ing highly paid union ofllcials with
liberal expense accounts. Tho gov
ernment would be doing tho job that
the unions set out to do and hove
been doing.
There was a small contingent of
the original brain trust which saw
this very clearly, and welcomed the
day when it .would mature.: They
wanted all power lodged in the fed
eral governrhent.' 'This line, p f
thought never triumphed. The time
was not ripe for it.
Moreover the election was ap
proaching and the administration
did not know then that it could
havo been rc-oloctcd even if all the
labor unions had been just as strong
ly opposed to it as tiiey were, in
favor of it.
See Danger There
But the dangerous germ of
thought is still there. The admini
stration intends to march on its ef
forts to straighten out the waving up
and down curve of business booms
and depressions. It intends to con
trol business more and more, es
pecially in the matter of plant ex
pansions.
With the regulation,of wages and
hours, not o part of tho program
for the present session of congress,
the regulation of busine'ss comes
closer. Sooner or later may come
another move. It. has not even been
hinted, so far, but as a matter of
fact It has lots of advocates, some
of them Inside the New Deal breastworks.
For if governmental control is
to be exercised over business In
order to avoid hectic booms and
gloomy depressions—with the idea
being to keep .the curve of prosper
ity in a straight line, with no ups
and downs—it will bccomo impor
tant not to have cessations of work
due to labor troubles. They are apt
to play hob not only with produc
tion-bearing in mind that the goal
of the New Deal Is, to have pro
duction geared down to the capa
city of the market to consume—
but with government revenues.
The millions of taxes paid to tlie
federal government out of the an
nual profitf of the steel corporation,
for example, and out of personal
incomes derived from dividends
from that company, might conceiv
ably disappear entirely for one year
duo to strikes which might turn the
black ink figures of that company into red.
All of which has labor leaders a
little perturbed as they see the start
made on government regulation ofwages
Ohio in Congress
Tho Ohio delegation is an interest
ing example of what is happening
to tho President on the Supreme
court enlargement bill, and on In
surgency in general. It is typical of
most of the delegations from states
which are normally Republican, and

majorities in the Capitol Hill covi- tingents.
Ohio now has 22 Democrats and
only 2 Republicans in the house,
although if there is such a thing any
more as a “normal” majority the
Buckeye state should hove about

Meets Son, Stands Before King. Spends Old Age
In Happiness and Dies With a Prophecy of the
Coming of The Lion of Judah’s Tribe on His Lips
*The Sunday School Leason
For June 27. — Hebrews 11:
3-10, 17-22.
BY A. C. HUNEYCUTT
■I.icob lived r. turbulent life.
He etarted out a cheat and a
crook. ii.e mot .God at Bethel.
God covenatfcd with him. He be
lieved God and made a pledge
that if He would be with and
prosper him and protect him, he
would give Him a tenth of al!
, he made. He moved on and fell
in love with his uncle Laban’s
daughter. He was Dy uncle La
ban cheated out of seven years
of services in the prime of life.
He then in turn cheated father-
in-law Laban out a large part of
his estate. He took his loot and
started on his return to Canaan. |
He met Eaau whom he had
chisled and cheated. He passed
nn awful night at Peniel. His
b^eloved Kachel v/as taken by
death when Benjamin was born.
His daughter, Dinjah was de
bauched and disgraced at Shech-
hem. Joseph, the first boi^i of
Rachel, the favorite son, was
sold into slavery by hi.<) breth
ren, anil for twenty years was
thought to have been dead. Sim
eon was jailed in Egypt at the
order of the Prime Mini.ster.
Little Benjamin was taken away
from him in his old ago, as the
famine waxed nore. But told
Jacob remained, God-minded. He
never lost faith in God and his
old age was spent in happiness
and peace.
Bp to the day the fc|oys came
back from their second trip to
Egypt his life had been,
"Known to the Lord, not day or
night", but "At evening .time
there shall be light’ and this was
the case with Jacob.
T^ie Best Day of AH
The greatest day in Jacob’s
life was that, on which his aoiia
returned, from Egypt. Theijr
brought Iwck little Benjamin.
They brought basic Simeon. But
best of all they brought back
word that his long lost son, Jo
seph, waa not only alive, but
ruler ot the world’s greatest em
pire. Jloreovor, they b|rought to
him nn invitation to come to
Egypt v.'ith all his family and
live there. And then as he start-
years of separation found ex
pression, not in words, but in
embraces and tears of joy. Jo
seph just fell into his old dad
dy’s arms, “AND .WEPT ON
HIS NECK A GOOD WHILE”.
Jacob Pr^ented . to the King
Joseph took Jacob and Jacob’s
eleven sons back to the city and
presented them to Pharaoh. He
was not like many young men
are today who achieve a bit of
prominence, ashamed of old-
fashioned dad. Joseph was proud
of the old man who loved him
in hia childhood and youth and
grieved for . him for twenty
years. There is nothing much to
a boy who is ashamed of his old
father. “HONOR THY FATHER
AND THY MOTHER, THAT
THY DAYS MAY BE LONG IN
THE LAND WHICH THE LORD
THY GOD GIVETH THEE”,
the command thundered
from smoky Sinai. Joseph kept
l^uit .command. Lot us all keep
it.
Thinks of His Beloved Rachel
In Last Moments
Jacob lived seventeon years in
Egypt. Then he got sick. Joseph
drove up into the country to see
him. The old man is living in the
past. He remembers that day just
before he reached his destina
tion on the return from Padana-
ram when Benjamin was born
and a few moments thereafter
Rachel died. He toid Joseph
about it and told him where his
mother was buried in the land
of Canaan.
Jacob on his death bod blessed
Joseph and his two sons, Eph
raim and Manasseh. He called
his other sons to his side and
prophesied unto them of the fu
ture. As Judah’s turn came God
pulled aside the evil of the fu
ture and showed him his poster
ity. Down the line 2,000 years in
the future old Jaco^ saw springr
ing from Judah’s tribe the. Mea>
siah. Hear him as he iigxe to
Judah in his last теяйайеТ'
"THE SCEPTRE SHALL NOT
DIEPA4T FROM JUDA.H, NOR
A LAWGIVER FJIOM BE
TWEEN HIS FEET, UNTIL
SliJLOH COME: A.N1D, UNTO
HIM SHALL THE GATHERING
OF THE PEOPLE BE."
Aftor death Joseph had
Jacob’s body embalmed in keep
ing with the custom of Egyptian
SPO O K P IC T U R E S
ed, God promised him in a aristocracy, and took it back to
dream that He would go to
Egypt with him, and would bring
his posterity back, and assured
him that when he died in the
land of Goshen, his eyes should
be closed by none other hands
than those of his own beloved
Joseph. /
Old Age Not Life’s Worst
Let those who face approach
ing old age taKe courage. It is
not life’s worst, but to those
who have faith in God, it is the
best part. Youth may be neither
day nor night, “BUT IT SHALL
COME TO PASS, THAT AT
EVENING TIME IT SHALL BE
LTGilT”, That was the Ciise w!th
Jacob. IPis old ago .was the best.
Not Ashamed of His Old Daddy
, When Jacob a;'rivcd in Egypt,
Joseph was not ashamed of him.
He got into his chariot and met
"him before he reached the
national capftoT; iinol wtnnnr
meeting. Not a word was spoken
by either at first. There are
■ times with us all when words
fail. All pent up love of twenty June 27.
Canaan where he laid it with
the bodies of Abraham and
farah, Isaac and Rebekah in the
cave of Machpelah.
Joseph lived to be one hundred
and ton years old. but there is
littlo"'known of his life aftor the
death of his father Jacob. The
story says he “comforted” his
brothers after Jacob’s death
and burial, and, “Spake, kindly
unto them.” With this beautiful
picture of brotherly, forgivenesu
and kindness on the part oi
Joseph, the fascinating story of
Jacob and Joseph practically
closes.

“You’ll change your mind when
^ou meet him. Might as well argue
with a tree stump.”"But why bother with him?”
"Ksyl He’s m y partner,"
“Oh, I didn’t mean that. Why not
get your advice and know where
you’re going, instead of staggering
around blindly. Doesn’t it amount
to just that?”"In a way.” ,
. “It seems guidance would help
both of you. A geologist could fig
ure where that river ran a thou
sand year.*i u^o.”Hammond spoke slowly. "Maybe
Uiat’s an Idea, Kay.”“And you can trust Bruce to the
limit. Father did. '.As for tlie fee,
I’ll see that he doesn’t chargc yoU
anything until after everything is
over.” She laughed. "He’d icnow
better. I'd slay him If he put in
■ bill.""McKenzie Joe would have to
stay in the dark. He’d kick over
the traces.*’"Why tell him anything? Look
here, you’re digging now at ran
dom, aren't you?"
“Just about.”
“Then couldn't you just accident
ally dig whore Bruce told you to
look?”
"That’s an idea tool”“Then wiiy don’t you? You owe It
to yourself. And Joe too. He’d
benefit as much as you.”He could tliink ot litHo except
that she wos close to him, vibrant
ly warm', that hor hair brushed his
cheek, that a soft hand stroked his
throat."I'll have to bo terribly quiet
about it,” ho said at last, “Maybe
It'd be better if you’d sort ot pave
the way to Kenning. Don’t tell him
too much-^Just enough so that he’ll
know what I’m talking about when
I see him.”
“I will, dear,” said Kay Joyce
softly. For a deliciously long time,
she' remained close to him. Then
slowly she drew away, at last to
become solitary, somehow lonely, as
she looked out over the valley.
“Jack,” came after a long time,
“I've a disappointment.” Then with
jerky abruptness, “We can’t be
married.”“But Kay, that’s impossible!*'
“PlensQ don’t nsk mo a lot of
Billy questions about not loving
you," the girl said crisply. “I can't
stand it. 'I Instantly he was beside her, -
I “What aro you trying to say?”
“Nothing—of consequonce. I’m
Just terribly unhappy, Jack.”
"But why? You say you’ve crazy
about me. You know I worsiiip
you. What's come over you, Kay?”
he begged. “That night lu Seat
tle -”“Can’t you under.stand? Mother
and I are broke, positively flat
brokeI”
“I know that. Timmy nad a loose
tongue last night.” ,.“FatiiOr left hardly enough for
the furieral,” the girl went on bit
terly. "He even dragged' poor
Bruce down in t)ie wreck; almost
ruined him. Bruce has been a sahit.
He’s kept Mother and me alive. But
just the sama, the fact remains
we’re broke, tlat hvnko, penniless I"
"Well, what of it?” Jack demand-
fed impatiently. “I've got, money.”
She whirled, facing him.
“And am I to go through life,
calling myself a gold digger?”
“But you're not. That's absolute
ly silly.”“Is it?” she aslced. “I was the
sn o o ty banlcer’s daugliter. I
wouldn’t have anytiiing lo do with
you. Then suddenly, I haven’t any
money and you’ve got a lot. So I
marry you. What's the answer to
that?”"The answer is that I'll marry
you any time you say.”
“That's the wrong answer. We’re
both hot and crazj'. Just the touch
d£ your hand makes me want to
drag you away into some Eskimo
igloo and never come out. But that
will have to pass, i£ we aro to be
happy. We’ll have to go through a
lot; quarrel, adjust ourselves to
each other. Suppose it doesn’t work
bring you something besides myself
—something I've earned.”
"But you can't work that claim
with your own hands.”
"You said you'd get me some
•men.”
“That talces monoy."
"I've got a little. A few hun
dred dollars. That will be enough.
Bruce gives Mother a little to live
on—because of Father.”
“But suppose you don’t hit it?”
She raised her head, chin high
in the moonlight,
"I’ve got to hit It. I can’t have
you until I do. It will be my dow
ry.”Jack Hammond went down the
hill that niglit v/itli the feeling of
having kissed the lips of nobility. A
modest man, it had been inevitable
that he should have faebd moments
of doubt—all that now v/as dis
pelled.
A few nights later, as McKenzie
Joe scraped the sandy mud ofC his
boots and prepared to start for
Jeanne's store and a new tin of to
bacco, Jack Hamond came out of
tho semi-darkness of tho cabin and
leaned against the doorway.
"Listen, Joe,” he began, “I’ve
been thinking about something.”
"Yeh?” The old prospector tossed
aside the mud-smeared stick and
stood waiting,
“We’ve been looking for. that old
river bed in pretty haphazard fash
ion,”“Have we?” asked Joe,
“Well, haven’t v.’o? We dig a hole
hero and a hole there—^just stab
bing blind, In the dark. I’ve been
tiilnking that we ought to map out
a campaign. Suppose we swing
away over to tho right, almost to

tho end of our holdings on that
Number 5 lease, and start putting
down a series of test pits. Then, fi
those don’t work out, we can start
slowly across the valley—”
Tho coldly appraising look In Mc
Kenzie Joe's eyes halted him.
“What crooked mining sharii haa
been telling you the wrong place to
dig?" ho asked blufHy, and walked
on toward Jeanne Tov.’crs’ cabin.

. "Wiiy won’t it?”
■‘Suppose you get the idea that I
v/as desperate and grabbed you be
cause you had money?”
"~YtnrfcmJW~I‘d-uev>ii' -do-tliatT“-----
“That’s what they all soy. Jack,
'rhnt’s wiiy v/e've got to wait.”
He caugiit her eagerly, tight to
him.......i^Then-t'iis isnlt,..a turn-down?”
^‘Of course not, silly,’’ slie iiri-
. swered, in a smothered vo ice.
"We’ve simply got to wait, tiiat's
all.”
“Howlong?”
. Her lips were close to his.
"Until I make somu money out
of that placer. Oh, it’s a subter
fuge, 1 know. But at least I’U.
All In less than two weeks, the
little settlement of Sapphire Lake
had become a village—and was ro
bustly looking forward to the day
when it would be a town, Timmy
Moon's airplane had caused It
Not that he any longer held the
monopoly. .Two days after his llrst
trip into, Wrangell, another gypsy
hud flown in from the Alaskan coast
and begun a canvass of the town for
business. Then a third had found
his way up from Vancouver.
For days Timmy MoOn had been
chartered by Around the World An
nie, fovorish for artisans, wood
workers, glazicLv ai.'d iheir ,",up-
plies. Olson’s discovery of gold had
done great things for the morale of
tlie camp. Other placer m iners,
who had been content with mere
panning, now were building rock
ers, or going in for greater sluicing
operations.Tiie wliole psychology of the
camp had changed, while hardware
and furnishing stores in Wrangell
soid out their supplies and the hur
rying airplanes roared onward to
Juneau and Sitka, there to load up
from now sources and rush back to
the mining camp.
“Yeh,” said McKenzie Joe, as he
watched a ship drop to the laiie and
taxi to a landing, “everybody’s in
a hurry. They could go for months
without glass In their windows—
but now they've got lu have it by
the next 'plane. That's the trou
ble with a new gold diggin's. No
body wants to let it stay the way
you found it,”Then suddenly ho asked Ham-
mnnd. “You going to work with mo
today on that upper shait, or are
you still sticking to Loon creeli?’
Hammond began to ilTo the rag
ged edge of a long-handled shovel.
—*^Beft4-yeu-4lHak-4tie-up-t&-i*8-to-
get os m uch gold out of that creek
placer as we can? We'll have to
be hiring men soon,”The older man shot him a quick
glance.....“That’S ' the fourth- or - fifth timo
you've brought that up," he said.
“Well?" asked Hammond. “Didn’t
we tailc it over tiie other night?”
“We didn’t come to any decision.”
"I did,”
"That doesn't malce two of us,”
' ;A certain asperity had grown up
' between the Iwo; looidng back,
Hammond felt that McKenzie Joo’o
nature hod become steadily sourer
ever oinco the first arrival of Tim
my Moon’s airplane and its pas
sengers. Jack had resented that,
as though it were an implied InsuU
to the girl he loved.“Look here, Joe. We’vo got to
get our money out of this discov
ery. We can’t stay here forever.”
“Seems to me,” McKenzie Joe
said, as he looked out over the
valley, “when we found this place,
we both figured it was where we
were going to settle down—tiiat we
had a life job,”“We’re not going to liave a year a
job, if we don’t find that older bed
rock. That Loon creek placer won’t
be enough for us,” »“It’s enough for me right now,
the older man said. “I ain’t ever
seen that much money before.Hammond bent over the shovel
blade. _ ^ „“Our ideas are different there.
“You mean, you’vo let some
body change ’em for you,"
Hammond threw down the shov
el; it clattered on the wooden, floor.
“I’m getting tired of that. If
you’ve got anything to say about Kay
Joyce, come out and say it.”
■The other man glanced at him
over his shoulder.
“Did I mention any names?” he
asked quietly and moved away to
ward the upper diggings, a new
test shaft, somewhat distant from
camp and rather deep in the for
est, by which they sought the bed
rock. Hammond did not iollow.
Instead, with the shovel over his
shoulder, he headed for the placer
workings along the creek. It was a
rejuvenated camp tlirough which ho
moved. A roar sounded from the
lake and Timmy Moon’s airplane
took oil for Wrangell. From far
away came the sound of hammers
over at Around the World Annie’s,
on the Alaskan side; a tiny town
had 'begun there; she called it
Whoopee, As Hammond wallced on,
he passed a squat Siwash squaw,
gleaming in a new shawl of wildly
checkered design, nn importation
by ж, жThen he became aware tliat some
one was calling him. It was Jeanne
Towers, waving excitedly from the
doorway of her cabin store.
“I’ve almost sold out!” she ex
claimed, as he approached. I'm go
ing to send in another order tomor
row. Larry Baine. he's the one with
the all-metal Junkers, is going to
bring mo back a whole list of stuH
from Fourcross.”
“That's the way a business
grows,” Hammond bantered. “Two
hundred dollars for a claim, doubled
all In a couple of weeks.”
Joanno laughed, tipping h er
home-made gold scales with a toy
ing flnger.“Well, nearly doubled., I hope I
do U again.’ ■ ^“And a dozen times after that.
Then I’ll know wliere to borrow if
the gold-mining business plays
out!”He went on then, nt last to reach
Loon creek. Kay was not yet there;
it was still breakfast timo in most
ot the camp. But Bruce Kenning
was moving along the stream, to
ward one of his claims a quarter
mile beyond. A few hundred yards
up the stream, where tho raw-boned
Olson scooped the earth by groat
shovelfuls Into his sluice, w'as Mrs.
Joyce. Hammond saw her there
often; now and then he had found
Olson sitting on the veranda of the
Joyce cottage, taUcing of Wander
ings In many lands in his search
for gold, while Mrs. Joyce gave
far more than her usual monosyl
labic rejoinders. There was some
thing about the man which seemed
to fascinate her, Suddenly he ceased
his musings. Bruce Kenning had
come beside him.“How’s the work going with Mc
Kenzie Joe?” he asked quietly.
liammond siirugged his shoul
ders,“I haven’t been able to get any
where. He still wants to put down
one hole at a time and give the
rest of his life to It.”
Kenning frowned.“You can’t have that. T’m con
vinced that the old river bed lies
over toward the British Columbia
hills.” He chuckled, “I wish„ it
wero the other way around—all my
claims are In the other direction."
Hammond grinned. “Well, you
can’t say I didn't tell you."“Oh, you’re talking about thot
stuii I bought from Jeanne Towers.
I’ve added to that a great d eal-
on the chance that somebody
around here would want It. But
everybody's looking the other way.
Just as well. I'm obligated to turn
over some worthless claims to an
English syndicate.” i
"That's beyond me."
“Something I took over out of
what was loft when Joyce died. I
guess the house is croolied. They
say franklv they probably won’t de
velop the property. They just want
something cheap In a live mining
camp.” , , ,"A stodc-selling scheme, probab-
ly.”

A S RIGHT as rain, and as cool
ing, are these clever young
modes for the woman who sews.
Each Is simple to make, pleasant
to wear, and may possibly be the
difference between a modern
and a mediocre wardrobe for you
th is summer. Sew-Your-O w n
wants to help you look your best,
.to stamp you modern-to-the-miii-
ute, and therefore Is anxious and
proud to present today's trio.
A Two Plecer for Chlo.
If he tells you you’re just a nice
armful you are tho right size and
type to wear the blouse ’n’ skirt
sliown above, left. Thb waistcoat
idea Is very much the thing in
blouses. The skirt is terribly
young and figure flattering. What
more could any little heart
desire? You can have this smart
ensemble for a song and a mini
mum of stitches. Think of tte
countless s u m m e r occasions
ahead that all but specify this
vory outfit.Not Smart Matron.
You should sue for slander any
one who calls you a Smart Matron
when' you don this gratifying new
fashion (above center). You st^p
into an entirely new size range when you step forth in this frock.
So simple is its technique—
merely a deftly designed feminine
Jabot, softly draped contours, and
a meticulously slender skirt—yet
so effective. It will thrUl you In

Dean I. 0. Sehaub, director of
the State College extension ser
vice, pointed out that one of the
major problems of agriculture
is how young people who wish
to start farming cnn secure land
of their own. Few have the capi
tal required to buy and equip a
farm of any size.
The purpose o£ the confer
ence, said L, R. Harrill, 4-H
club leader at the college who
had charge of the conference, is
"to gi'ive information, training,
and inspiration which will help
young men and women select
intelligently the vocations for
which they arc best fitted”.
Besides the a'ddresses and re
creation, the boys and girls wero
jiiven advanced instruction in
agriculture and rural iiomemaic-
ing.

Closest Rival State, South

Raleigh, N. C. — The state de

Carolina ‘continued to dominate"
the south and nation in cotton
manufacturers during 1935.
Basing its estimates on census
of manufacturers figures, the
department said cotton products
valued at $233,736,706 in 1936
gave the state an edge of nearly
$66,000,000 over the nearest
rival, South Carolina.
The industry in the state em
ployed 93,904 workers and paid
wages totaling ?5G,109,703 in
1935, the department said.
Though 1935 production was
still about ,?7G,000,000 below tho
1927 report, value of cotton pro-|
ducts in North Carolina gained

АШ CONDITION AND STREAMLINE OUR
CHURCHES
Charity and. Cliiirtren suggests that our
churches bo air clinditioncd nnd streamlined
and that our worship programs be more in
order. The editor, John Arch McMillan, be
lieves that something moro should be done
by the institution which haa a mission no
other, on earth does. Indeed the Thomas
ville publication’s editorial, carried in its is
sue of June 17th, ia so much to tho point, and
so much in line with our idea that we shall
give apace here to quote it in full. Says
Editor McMillan:
“By all means let ua air condition our
church buildings and streamline out pro
grams..' There is no special spiritual value
in physical discomfort nor in outmoded cus
toms..,'^yheJ'e is every reason why the house
of the Lord should be attractive and comfort
able and not one why is should be ujily and
uncomfortable. There ia every reason' why a
church program should move along with
precision and grace and not one for an III ar
ranged and awkward disorder of service.
The grounds about public buildings are being
beautified. The moat beautiful grounds to
be found .should be thoMO'about the church
houses. Tho banks, theatres, libraries and
stores aro being made comfortable by tho
use of conditioned air. The churches should
nnt be an (jxception to that rule. But if the
churches depend upon air conditioned build
ings and streamlined services they are doom
ed to failure. The things should be used as
aids (ind not as ends.- Comfortable build
ings and streamlined services will attract
people and delight them physically and men
tally but there must be something more than
that. They can secure those things in the
theater.^; and the church a,nd the theater are
not and must not become rivals. The
church has a mission all of its own nnd In
that has no rival anywhere. It must have
a comfortable building and pleasing pro
gram so thal there will be comfort of body
and ease of mind while tho aoul drinks of
the Watfli' o f Lifo nnd feaat.<i in comfort and
ease on the Bread of Lifo. Jesus waited un
til Peter had eaten to the full before he said
lo' “i'X-eci 'nii' r-ihtji.'p," -By -all-moans, nlr.-

DID NOT MINCE WORDS
The Hcniate judicary committoe in making
its report on'the president’s court reform
bill, wa.s not very mild ■ in expressing its
opinion. And it .was not a republican com
mittee, but overwlieimingly democratic.
Among other statementf? we clip the fol
lowing.;
“IT IS A MIOASURB- WHICH SHOULD BE
SO EMPHAT1CAI,1,Y ItLJliCTED THAT ITS
PAnALJ;EL WH.L NliViiJR AGAIN BE PRE-
S.I?NTR;;: to THIi FUIiE REPRESENTA
TIVES OF THE FREE PEOPLE OF AMERI
CA”.
'I'he committee’s opposition to the measure
is decidedly marked í).FtHíTTcrnowing Гапк-'
uage:
“IT CONTAINS TIIE GERM OF A ,SYS-
T^-'H r'F гч.'УМЧЬМЛХКП ADMINISTRA-
TION OF LAW THAT WOULD ENABLE~AN~
EXECUTIVE SO MINIDED TO SEND HIS
JUDGES INTO EVERY JUDICIAL DISTRICT
IN THE LAND TO SIT IN JUDGMENT ON
CONTROVERSIES BETWEEN THE GOV
ERNMENT AND) THE CITIZENS. UNDER
TViR KOIiM OP THE CONSTITUTION IT
SEEKS TO DO THAT WHICH IS UNCON-
,STiTPTIONAL”,
If the report ia any indication as to what
will happen to Mr. Uoosevelt’s court reform
measure, then it ia pretty safe to say the
president tackled a job a little too big to,
'hiiiullo just at this tirne, .
Can it bo done in America? It was done
in Russia. It wa.s done in Italy. It was
done in Germany. Ii was done in Louisiana
where only an assassin’s bullet saved the
situation. Can one-tenth of our population,
representing less than a tenth of the nation’s
brains, culture, wealth, governmental exper
ience and real character, manipulate so as to
overpower, hamstring nnd rule the other
nine-tenths of this nation’s population,.. IN
CLUDING THE “EMHATTLED FARMERS
OF AMERICA?
Well, possibly not, but let’s not be too sure
of it. If the farmers of this nation, the
business and professional men, Ithe non
union workers and the American Federation
of Labor, do not. watch, they may open their
eyes all too late and find themselves tied
hand and foot by .John Lewis and his sym
pathisers, representing less than one-»fourth
of the laboring claaa and less than ten per
cent, of the population of the United Statea.
Mussolini, with a small per cynt. ot Italy’s
population, carefully organized, dominated,
nnd is dominating, all Italy. Lenin and
Trotskey snatched all the power from the
Russians and ruled the millions with a rod
of iron and a glove of steel, and their suc
cessors are atill doing it. And no man who
does not wish to face a firing squad dares
lift his voice in protest. Hitler did, and is
doing the same thing to the Gormans.
Is there now on foot n well devised plan,
to enable a little handfull of people dominate
nnd rule America?
Now while it i« still time, Americans who
cherish constitutional governmenl, may well
be on the alert.

COUNTRY HAM
An editorial diacusaing the home mark(it
question, the Asheboro Courier makes this
statement:
"Recently there have sprung up several
roadside places in almost every section of
North Carolina where country ham and fried
chicken aro specialities. For the places that
prepare these two popular articles of food
well, there is always a good trade and a beat
en path to their door.”
In the language of Martha Riiyc, “Oh boy” I
We have passed just such places. Just last
week, in driving through Wilkes and Alexan
der counties, we saw several of those "coun
try ham for sale” signs. The only reason
we did not stop at two or three of them and
fill up wns that all the,way there was a
downpour of rain to prevent.
Of all the thinga folks eat in this country,
nothing' cnn measure up to country ham well

HITCH-HIKERS IN DISFAVOR
('rwin-City Sentinel)
Hitch-hikers have thumbed their way into
disfavor in almoat one-third of the 48 statea
in thia country. Legislatures have passed
laws in fifteen states and tho District of
Columbia to pi’ohibit roadside solicitation of
I'ides in motor vehicles.
Add to theae 15 states 24 that have laws
which I’eloaso the operator or owner of a
car from financial liability for injuries sus
tained by a gueat passenger, except when wil
ful misconduct or intent to injure ia involved,
. aiid you have the vast majority of the states
taking some sort of action against the hitch
hiker.
When tho idea firat was born there was
little trouble in obtaining rides. But when
the robbers and thieves began to take up
the habit and there were many people in
jured and robbed throughout the country on
.ncooiint of the hitch-hikers. This prompted,
more than any other one thing, the action by
the state legislators.
However, another thing that worked a
hardship on the hitch-hikers was the advant
age that some took of their benefactors when
an accident occurred. Forgetting that they
were receiving a favor from the motorist,
many sued when in accidents they received in
juries.

is how young people who wish
to start farming can .secure land
of their own. Few havo the capi

Raleigh, N. C. — The state de

Carolina ‘continued to dominate”
the south and nation in cotton
manufacturers dm-ing 1935.
Basing its estimates on census
of manufadturers figures, the
department aaid cotton products
valued at $233,736,760 in 1935
gave the state an edge of nearly
$56,000,000 over the nearest
rival. South Carolina.
The industry in the state em
ployed 93,964 workers and paid
wages totaling ?56,169,703 in
1935, the department said.
Though 1935 production was
- still about $76,000,000 below the
women select 11927 report, value of cotton pro
vocations for. ducts in North Carolina gained
nearly $44,000,000 over 1933. I

AIR CONDITION AND STREAMLINE OUR
CHURCHES
Charity nnd Children suggests thnt our
churchcs be air conditioned and streamlined
nnd that our worship programs be more in
order. The editor, John Arch McMillnn, be
lieves that something more should be done
by the institution which hus n mission no
other on earth does. Indeed the Thomas
ville publication’s editorial, cnrriod in its is
sue ol' June 17th, ia so much tn the point, nnd
BO much in line with our iden thnt we shall
give spnce here to quote it in full, Snys
Editor'McMillnn:
‘‘By all moans let us air condition our
church buildings nnd streamline our pro
grams. There ig no . apodal ápiritual value
in physical ^iscomfort nor in outmoded cus
toms. There is every renson why the house
of the Lord should be .attractive and comfort
able and not one Why is should be ugly and
uncomfortable. There is every reason why a
church program should move alongé- with
preciaion n’hd grnce and not one for an ill nr-
rnnged nnd .iwkwnrd disorder of service.
The grounds nbout public buildings nre being
benutified. Tlje most benutiful grounds to
be found should bo tho,"‘j nhout tho church
liouses. The banka, theatres, librnries and
Btorea aro boing made comfortable by tho
use of conditioned air. Tho churches should
not be an exception to that rule. But if the
churches depend upon aif conditioned build
ings and streamlined services they are doom
ed to failure. The things should be used as
a ida nnd not as ends. Comfortable build
ings and stronmlined aorvices will attract
people iind delight them phyaically and men
tally but there muat be something more thnn
that. They can aeeure those things in the
theaters; nnd the church a.nd the theater are
not and must not become rivals. The
church ha» n mission all of its own nnd in
that hn8 no rival anywhere. It must have
a comfortable building nnd plensing pro-
grnm ao that thoro will be comfort of body,
and ease of mind while the soul drinks of
tlie Wiitor o f Life and feasts in comfort and
ease on the Brend of Life. Jesus waited un
til Peter had eaten to tho full before he said
.Jo.liini, “Feed my ahoep,” By all,means air
condition tlie cH'urcTies “áiTd-“ sIrenifilTñe The '

DIO NOT MINCE WORDS
Thu Hon.Ue .judicai'y committee in making
its I’eport on tho presic!ent|s court reform
bill, w!iK not very miUi in expressing its
opinion. And* it wus not a republican com
mittee, but overwiiolmlngly doni'ocratic,
■ Among other statement." we clip the fol-
Icv.-ing:
“IT IS A MliASURE WHICH SHOULD BE
SO EiIPHATICAI,l.Y RrJKCTED THAT ITS
PARAIJ.KL W ll.i. NEVli;]: AGAIN BE PRE-
se n t e;;: to th e T'-kee r e pr e se n t a
t iv e s OF THE fre e pe o ple OP AMERI
CA".
The eommittee’.s r.ppusitlon to the measure
is decidedly marked l)y the following lang
uage :
“ IT CONTAINS THE GERM OP A SYS
TEM OP CENTRALi'/ED ADMINISTRA-
MnOM ni? r AW THA'P w o u r .n PM ARI.P. AN
EXECUTIVE SO JI1NH3ED TO SEND HIS
JUDGES INTO EVERY JUDICIAL DISTRICT

CONTROVERSIES BETWEEN THE GOV
ERNMENT ANO THB CITIZENS. UNDER
T'TE FORM OF THW CONSTITUTION IT
SEEKS TO DO THAT WHICH IS UNCON-
S'I''TMTI0NAL”.
Jf the report is any indiualioii as lo wliat
will hapijer. to Mr. Roosevelt’s court reform
measure, then it is pretty safe to any the
president tnckled ,a job a little too big,, to
handle juat at this time.
WE MAY WAKE UP TOO LATE
Can it bo done in Ainoi'icaV It was dono
in Russia. It was done in Italy. It was
done in Germany. It was done in Louisiana
where only an assassin’s bullet saved the
situation. Can one-tenth of our population,
representing less than a tenth of tho nation’s
brains, culture, wealth, governmental exper
ience and real character, mnnipulnte so as to
overpower, hamstring nnd rule the other
nine-tenths of this nation’s population,.. IN
CLUDING THE “EMBATTLED FARMlfiRS
OF AMERICA?
Well, possibly not, but let’s not be too sure
of it. If the farmers of this nation, the
business and proieasional men, Ithe non
union workers find thd Amei'ican F'ederation
of Labor, do not wntch, they mny open their
eyes nil too late and' find 'themselves tied
hand and foot by 'Johu Lewis and his sym
pathisers, representing leas than one-»fourth
of the laboring class and lens than ten per
cent, of the' population of the United States.
Mussolini, with a sinall per c/'nt. of Italy’s
popiilation, carefully organized, dominated,
and is dominating, all Italy. Lenin and
Trotakey snatched all the power from the
Russians and ruled the millions with a rod
of iron and a glove of steel, and their suc
cessors nre still doing it. And no man who
does not wish to face n fiinng squad dni-ea
lift his voice in protest. Hitler did, and is
doing the same thing to the Germans.
Is there now on foot n well devised plan
to enable a little haiiiUull of people dominate
and rule America?
Now while it is still iime, Americans Avho
cherish constitutional government, тоау well
be on the alert.

COUNTRY HAM
An editorial discusaing the homo market
question, the Asheboro Courier makes this
statement:
“ Recently thore have sprung up 'several
roadside places in almost every section of
North Carolina where country ham and fried
chicken aro specialities. For the places thnt
prepare these two popular articles of food
well, there is always a good trade nnd a beat
en path to their door.”
In the.language of Martha Raye, “Oh boy”l
Wo have passed just such places. Just last
week, in driving through Wilkes and Alexan
der counties, wo saw several of those “coun
try ham for sale” signs. The only reason
we did not stop at two or three of them and
fill up was thnt nil the way thero was a
downpour of rnin, to prevent.
Of all the thiiigs folks ent in this country,
nothing can measure up to country ham well
cured and well cqoke'd. Turnip greens
and Corn Hread come next. We say this
with duo difference to the opinion of Dr. Os
car Coffin as to Randolph chittllngs.

HITCH-HIKERS IN DISFAVOR
(Twin-City Sontinol)
Tlitch-hikera havo thumbed their way into
disfavor in almost one-third of the 48 states
in this country. Legislatures have passed
laws in fifteen states and the District of
Columbia: to prohibit roadside solicitation of
rides in motor vehicles.
Add to these 15 states 24 that hnve laws
which release tho operator or owner of a
car from financial liability for injuries sus
tained by a guest passenger, except when wil
ful misconduct or intent to injure is involved,
nnd you hnve the vast majority of tho states
taking some sort of action against the hitch
hiker.
When the idea first was born there waa
little troubJe' ln obtaining rides. But when
tho robbers and thieves began to take up
the habit nnd there v/ere many people in
jured and robbed throughout the country on
' account of the hitch-hikera. This prompted,
-more-thiiTi“ any otlfer one i;hiTigi'tRe -actioiv- by
tho state legislators.
However, another thing thnt worked a
hardship on the hitch-hikera y/ns the advant
age’that some took of their benefactors when
an accident occurred. Forgetting that they
were receiving a favor from the motorist,
many sued when in accidents they received in
juries.

GOOD OLD SUMMER TIME IS HERB
(Charlotte Observer)
It is here, having nrrived Monday—the
good old aummer time!
While it haa been flirting with us for some
weeks down here in the South, Summer did
not officially put in its presence until Juno
21st, the longest day of the year with 15 hours
and 18 minutes of light.
It usher,a in the season of life largely
spent in the great nmphitheatera of Nntui;e’a
out-of-doora, with long automobile ridos, with
picnics and family reunions and barbecues,
and ants; with leiaure nnd rest and vacations
on the strands or in the mountains; with
vngPH iinrl ivia and the wealth of gorgeou.s
blooms that wait until the heat of tFe yea'r
to'aprend their beauties; with crops growing
with «wift haste toward the l;ime of harvest
and the scent of new-mown hay filling the
air of the countryside.

F rank RINI of Brooklyn, N. Y ., says that all the adventures
that ever happened to him cam e while he was a soldier down
in the Canal Zone. B ack in 1924, Frank was a corporal in the One
Hundred Ninety-Second com pany, C. A. C., stationed at Fort
Sherman. And on Jan u ary 15 of that sam e year, he had the ex
perience that frightened him more than anything else he ever
faced in his life.
It wasn’t the fright alone—it was the sheer horror that went with
It, Such a horror ns only the dank, steaming, crawling jungle could
produco. A party of five soldiers set out from the barracks one Sunday
afternoon, nnd Frank was among them. It was a sort of hunting and
exploring trip. •
“We were out for anything we could shoot,” Frank says, "but
our real ambition was to find a primitive tribe oi Indians who
were said to live in that section of the Canal Zone.
Chopped a W ay Through tho Jungle.
“Wo were net allowed to toko our rifles. That is against army regu
lations. But wo borrowed a lew shotguns and each of us had a bolo to
cut our way througli the jungle undergrowth. For tho first five miles our
mulo lay on a beaten track along the ocean side, but from there on wo
wero in virgin territory. Thore our bolos came into play ond wo had to
hack our way through brush and growths thnt were, in spots, almost
Impnssuble.”
They pushed on through that Jungle, but not very far. It was hard
work and it took most ot the glamor out of the expedition. They grew
weary nnd stopped for a rest. Frank climbed a coconut tree, cut down
a half dozen of the nuts and they drank tho juice to quench their thirst.
Then thoy decided to call it a day and start back for the fort.
The sun was beginning to sink in the sky now, and it would never do
to bo caught in the jungle overnight. They began moving fast, but that
tiot, tropic sun seemed to be moving faster than they .were. In .order to
get out before darkness trapped them they tried a short cut through a
low, swampy region that led in almost a straight line to tho fort.
Big Snake Coilod About Frank. ,
Frank was a little ahead of the rest of them, for he knew this par
ticular jungle route better than they did. He was keeping his eye open
1st! familiar landmarks and had just spotted one—a peculiarly-shaped
moss of ferns on . the bank'of a small creek. He had just leaped across
Ihc creek when something hit him.
A soft, wriggling mass settled down over his shoulders. And
Frank looked up and. almost fainted when he saw the sinuous
form of a huge snake colling Itself around him.
Frank has seen snakes like that in tho movies since, but those rep
tiles didn’t not liko his did. Tho snakes in the picturo wrapped them-
(clvcs completely around an animal, but Frank’s snake kept his tall
colled around tho limb of a tree while ho encircled Frank with tho
ы т ш ш т .
Ihe Huge Snake Colled Itself Around Him.
rest of his body. The natives told him nitterward that In that way they
could squeeze a lot harder, since the limb afforded them a good fulcrum.
But all that Frank' found out afterward. At tho time it hap
pened ho wasn’t thinking about movie snakes, or fulcrums, or anything
else but the huge reptile that was wxapphig Itself around him. '
"It wasn’t the squeezing it was giving me. so much as tho sheer hor
ror of hdvlng that hugOj slimy thing so close to me,” he' says. “Even
before the squeezing began I was practically stif( with fright and ready
to pass out frorii ievulsiom Everything went black for a moment.
When the blackness passed, my hands had instinctively dropped the bolo
I waa carrying and clasped themselves around the reptile. The snake
waa so repulsive that I had to shut my eyes, but I struggled fiercely as
it began to tighten its coils.
Tho Reptile Bit Him, Too.
"1 (elt Bomething hot pierce my arm and knew that the head
of the reptile had fs.stened itself on me. A boa eonstrictor can
bite quite painfully as well as squeeze. I never knew it before,
but I learned it then. With that bite 1 lost all my reaso.'i. 1 began
' struggling like a madman, and suddenly I found my voice and
started to yell.”
Meanwhile, the reptile had kept its hold on Frank and slowly but
sur?)y ;Wr..<!.;£UiUccziD2 ..cvery.:.bit^0t_hteatb_,0Ut_pf his hpdy. He didn’t
yel! more than oncf or twioc bcfsrs the snake had flattened fils lungs so
that yelling was impossible. “I was considered a pretty strong man
n'bout camp," he says, “but this snake was just too much ior any-
Ihing on two feet.
"I was about all in when I saw the first of my comrades break through
jungle foliage and come toward'me a^ a dead run. After that I
remember only dimly what took place. I remember them hacking at
that snake with their bolos and even shooting at it, but still it wouldn't
let Eo. It hung on until they had literally cut it to pieces. Finally it
gave its last quiver and they untangled me from ita folds. But by that
time I was out cold, and they had to work over me for more than ar
hour before f was conscious of anything or anybody."
Even when they did bring him to, Frank could hardly walk.
And only part of that was due to the squeezing he had taken from
tliat monster reptile. The rest of it was just plain weakness from
the shock of his hideous experience.
The boys measured that snake before they left the spot, and it was
nineteen feet long and almost four inches in Hlnmeter. They told Frank
around camp that a reptile of that breed and size was quite capable
of killing a horse, and Frank Isn’t at all unwilling to believe them. ,
"My whole body was sore for more than two weeks, just from the
little dose I got,** he says, “and I don’t think a horse would hove felt
•’f'uch better after the sanne sort of treatment.'*
