Mr. Editor:—I have read the con- [r0VC'Tv of Mr. W hitley and Fanny McCi l'oli with much interest and ividi you to say this much for me I love to see one part hair, but I to I10t like to see one sPlit hairs that is not pious, it is not af­ fectionate. Comb her up nice and smooth but there is too much split­ s ' ting done already. ■-? Look at Jno 9 and last part of ’ \erse 20 and first part of verse 2 1, ” j^s, we know this is our son, and j that he was born blind,[but by what ' means lie seeteth we know not. w if I can add a little word which will bring, light to the darkened u ejes I will be glad. -i Jn the bigining God created the I heavens and tlie earth and darkness was upon the face of the deep - (it is there yet) Darkness has always been on the face of the deep. It is a deep proposition, the re­ aring of time. God .made the first day which embraced the first sabbath from mid-day to mid-day. The evening was the first part of the dav and morning was the last part ot it. Now it is reconed from mid-mglit to mid-night. W hc changed 11? Did God do it? No. Who did it then? We did. Bywhose I authority? Not Gods, but our own, I Gallilso was the first man who said S the earth was a round ball, floating I in space like a toy ballon. Chris- I topher Columbus said if that is true i| and Gallilleo is right, then there is « more land than we have any know­ ledge of, and he went in search of it and found this western hemis­ phere on which we now live. . We have had many a hard struggle to- maintain what that good man gave us, wars and owls and apes and In ­ dians poverty and sicknesses and sorrows 01 so many soTts, now try­ ing to get peace at a time when there is no peace on earth. When the children of Isreal were in the wilderness God made a con­ cession to pacify them and coused the Sabbath to be from, sun-up to sun down and what they did after dark was not reconed against them. Then came Jesus about 1000 years later, and after Him came a writer in the person of Praul who said, one man esteemeth one day aboye a: iiolhcr. another man esteemeth1 .I every day alike. Let every man is he pursuaded in his own mind, then he ads. He that keepctli a day, heepelh it unto the Lord (or rather regardeth) and he that regardeth not the day unto the Lord doth not regard it. (Now be careful people.) It was not know for about five |J thousand and five hundred years after creation, that there -was an extra six hours in every7 y7ear and u was found that it was still a frac­ tion to be reconed with, so smaj that the fraction made a day in one hundred years. Do y7ou remember we had no leap-year from 1896 to1 ■9°4? So in ieconing back aud try- uig to get the time which had "al­ ready passed traightened out they1 found it an impose sibility and so they acknowledged that there was about 66 years of time lost owing to the inability to figue out the frac­ tional parts of years and I want to ask you and all readers of this paper that if they cannot tell within 66 ears of time how are you and me °'nS to tell a day or what fraction tiine we are in. anny G. McCulloh said it was cr^feht to pull ,the ox-.ojit of the jt.tek ’f we don’t push them in the aX before. Well suppose we=do him in the day before. Is * — any excuse for not pulling him |°titon the Sabbath? If that he re case then it must be that the I 18in Pushing him in, and, that P ‘he day before the Sabbath. I our uanie indicates that you are 8 y and I want to say that God ’ by enfranchising you-, you have Besame right at the ballot box as. I do. Has God ever done this he- fore? ,Then if" not there is some­ thing-new taking place. W e ob serve the 4th of July as the day of declaration of independence. Why do we? What would the declaration amounted to i f it had not been fought for and won. We do perhaps know the day on which the great, deliverer of Ameri­ can independence was born, but do we know ever the day on which our great deliverer Jesus was born? I doubt even that. Shephards never grasod their flocks by night in cold weather, it was only in the very hottest of weather they grased their sheep by night and that was what they were doing when Jesiis was born and the Angels brought ■ the tidings to the meu while minding the sheep at night time. Bethle­ hem of Judeg and is about.the same portion of the temperat zone as Rutherfordton, N: C. so says those who have visited both places, a lit­ tle hill surrounded by larger hills and what would one think' if they seen men turning out sheep on these barren hills at the bleak and frozen period which generally characteriz­ es our monern Christmas. . My parents always kept Jan. 6, as Christmas and I am a Davie boy, born and raised on the waters of Yadkin River at the place where Daniel Boon the old poineer settler of Kentucky Was born and raised. My fore-parents were the oldest settlers of the country of the entire south. - Many has been the times I went astride a horses back on a bag of wheat from -my old ..home, to Fishers M ill where Cooleemee Cot­ ton Mills is . now, Ipcatedli, I Jpve men, boys, girls, children and all of Gods heritage but do not like to have people quarrel! about things which they know nothing. Neith­ er you nor Mr. W hitley or myself nor any other person can safely put thier finger 6n any day of the'seven and call it the Sabbath. I love a Bible reader. I love a student of any subject, but the Sabbath is a hidden proposition, no man or woman knows the exact day and it is rightou'sly so, then lots trying to stand up for 'what that represents instead of the dav itself. Remem ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy. Thisis all'w e can do. W e can only keep it holy iu our mind. The Angel said to the virgin. Thatholy thiug which shnll-be borne of -thee shall be called the son of the living God. He said we should love Goc with all our whole soal, mind anc strength and our neighbor as ou selves was the great commandment! He did it at a time when the ver people He canie to save were kick ing at Him about what H e did 01 the Sabbath day.

Mr. Editori--In the. friendly dis-' Ussion going on In the Record, I ould Iike to add just a few-words lore for Mr. Whitley, and others-of ie same' mind, though Mrsl McCul- )h seemed to cover most of the Tound. ] ,■ . With reference to Mr. Whitley’s ontention as to the law and cove ant, Jesus: was author of them both In this artical I will just give a few cripture references and leave the natter to the readers’ reason.. Col- osians, 1:16, says, “AU things was nade by -him." John. 1:3. is. the ame idea, so we all see Jesus was ;he active agent in creation and re- lemption. He was with the church n the wilderness He was that spifi ual rock of which they drank; He vas captain of the Lord1B hosts: He s and always was man’s friend and 3aviour .: - There was no conflict be­ tween Him and His Father or Moses. He said to the questioning Phari ses. '7If you believed Moses writings you would have known me, for- he wrote of me. The spirit of God quided Moses in his preceps that was true and also those that were types.' For proof read I Peter 1:11. ? AU the references that. Mr. Whit­ ley gave to prove one point proved a whole lot more. The law that God gave is a perfect law and it points out sin. -■- "The wages of sin is death” God gave it in Ioverfor sinful men as long.as there is a law and men trans­ gress it there will be sin jn the world, and a need of a Savior. Romans, 4:15 says “No law, no transgression,” so if there was no law there would' be no sin and peed of a Saviour. The gospel the power of God. unto Salva­ tion-is the ^antidote for sin and. is available to all just because God - so loyed the? wojrld. (read: John 3:16 please! .7IiOve is the fulfilling of the law that we hear so much- about-and is proof that we.are (Ilis ) JeSus’ dis ciples. The law is immutable; if ' it could have been- changed Jesus would not have had to die,for He prayed the Father,- " If it is possible let this cup Now if we-love God. with our whole heart, sole, mind and strength We prove it by the. degree of obedieiice-we fender him, as ex­ pected in the first four preceapts of the. decalogue,'and if we love our neighbor as our self we will fulfill the other six, we never can do this until we are horn of the spirit , for the, carnal mind is at enmity against God and His'law, John, infiiis epistles talks much a- bout commandments and love" and some things about liafs I John, 2:6, says, “He that sayeth He abideth iD Him- Aughtalso towalkevenasHe walked ” : Jesus kept all the, com mandments magnified the law just as Isah said 'He would.' He lived a per feet example to show us how'went a way and sent the comforter to be with us always. John 14:15,20 Wbat a comfort! . . - He does not revuire us to meet any perticulartiffie or place, but excep' table worship in spirit and in truth. If to be ChristianB is to'follow Christ we will keep the Fathers- and Sons commandments for they are one and we will have fellowship with the Father and the Son arid a tender love for all his children for if ye be Christ’s then are ye Abraham’s seed.

Having left his hat and cloak .iu the dressing room, he was led to a card table.. He looked for his host and hostess. Both were absorbed in gaming at another ta­ ble. He looked quickly and in­ tently 'at the assemblage of guests, bowed politely and went home. On the way he was accosted by an in­ timate friend who asked the reason for his short stay. “In the entire company there was too little brain to sustain an intelligent conversa­ tion,” was the judge’s laconic re- pjy. ., ____ __ Thoriias Jefferson once said when asked to play cards: “Life is too short for me to play cards.

Throw away your old hammer and get you a liorn. The reason some folks hide their money m cans and stockings is be­ cause they are afraid to do business with banks that are afraid to ad­ vertise. The more the town grows the less taxes each person will have to pay. It is up to all of us to do everything we can to put new life unto the old town and make things hum. The Record’s" subscription books are open at all times to our adver­ tisers. We have the largest circu­ lation of any newspaper printed in Davie-county and our books prove it. Elkm is to get a new cotton mill this year. There is no reason why Mocksville should not build a mill this spring. There is enough idle money in the cour.tv to build sever­ al nulls and then some. Several fellows who r.r«. too stingy- to subscribe for the Record were caught reading other people’s copies last week. Shame, boys, shame. Just as wejl borrow money from, your neighbor and not pay .him back. Every share of the building and loan stock you buy is not only help mg your town to grow but is pay­ ing you a nice dividend of 6 per cent., lion-taxable. W hynot buy a few shares m the new series which has just opened? Some of the old landmarks a- round town are going to be torn down soon. Here’s hoping that a few new business houses will be built this vear. -A town cannot grow unless it can suppy the demand for stores and dwelling houses. The. citizens of Cooleemees' Farmington, Advance, Bixby Cana and other sections are; urged to be in Mocksville on Wednesday, afternoon, FeW 1st, at 3 o’clock, to help Da­ vie start a new cotton mill.

It would be a paying proposition if some of the men who owii lots a- rouud the public square or on De­ pot street would erect two or three modern stole rooms and office build­ ing.

' . Mr Editor:—I am called a '‘‘knocker," and I glory in the name, for it is just as important to knock' as it is tqpnll—as Iting as you know and think you are knocking for the right. I shall continue to knock, whether it pleases the parasites and other office.holders or not, 'Now I am going to do a little knocking against the sale and removal of the old Court House. To whom does this historic building belong? To ail the people of Davie county, then-why were they not .consulted before the powers that be hurriedly decided upon its sale? Ir is the prettiest building in nur town, and around which clings some of the dear est memories of the past history of our country. Why destroy the only landmark linking us with the historic past,- associat inn future generations with the ,early his­ toryof country and the struggles of the early settlers in building for the future greatness of our great country? Why not leave it for the sake of its past usefulness and-for a still greater benefit in l!he future —a rest room for the country people—a library for all? Its not in the way of traf- fic—thats all bosh. Are there not back of it some ulterior motives?’ Was not the hurried action taken to conceal something yefunrealvedt. Ido not impugn the motives of our Commissioners, for they are often imposed upon by the designing. We will seefjnr its an. old' saying;' “that murder will out.”; -The predetermined decrdte' has gone, forth, and no argument will stay the hands of the despoilers.' "A day of recon- ing is near Bt hand and the people are to be turned on—and revalations will be made which are not now so apparent to the naked’ eye. If you don’t want to be run'over, get off -the !track— the “oracle’ has spoken^-the boss is in the saddle—he hey are wishing her all the blessings f joy and bappin.es:: for the future hat a faithful class may wish.

Davie is raising I, which supports 14 of Nonh Carolina’s 3 334 children in the! five Tar Heel orphanages at Trebiz ncl. Manyof thesechildren are inno­ cent victims of the , great- war Aheir fathers having been killed during the heroic defense of the Baku oil fields by the Armenian Army, which shortened the .war Dy many months according to all experts. The parents; of otl e*s were murdered during the Turkish depredations in­ to Armenia when they refused to re nounce Christ and Lezome Moham medang v - V “ Davie county is a rural commu­ nity with only' one ' incorporated town,” Mr. Sherrill told the con ference. “ All but one1 of the seben townships have always been put over the top in the Near East Relief driv­ es, and the others made up in-this one. PjBachers and school teachers have done wonderful work in spend ing the . story of Armenia’s awful plight.” “ Although financial conditions are riot as good as they have been. Davie county has never yet failed in this great humanitarian work and with the help of the preachers and teach-, ers and active work by the sub chair men, we -are going to again raise our allotment.

C . F E B R tA R Y r l T H E RECORD ICE BY ELECTRia PROCESS Methoifj Long Tried Out in Hotel*,' Restaurants, and Ships, Soan . to Be Universal. Now that.-iceless refrigeration has' been simplified to the point where it is suitable for the home, it is safe to predict that it will not be long be­ fore it will be within the reach of even those of very modest pocket books, and all need of bothering with ' tbe iceman, with his pick and tongs, wiH be gone. The ice used on our tables has long been the product of electric refrigera­ tion, alfhofigh the mechanism was not- located in our own homes, says the Philadelphia North American. Hotels, restaurants and passenger boats have - used the electric process because it is efficient, sanitary and convenient. Electricity does not immediately and directly produce the freezing temper­ ature, but merely provides the motive power to condense certain chemicals which are the actual refrigerants. In the process of condensation these chemicals vaporize or llHoil" and- ab­ sorb the heat from the surrounding air. The machinery by which con­ densation and vaporization is pro­ duced was formerly large and ex­ pensive, and it has taken continu­ ous experimentation to reduce it to a point where it is practical for house-' hdld use. ” ■ The process has been similar to the transition of locomotive power from the large and clumsy railroad steam engine to the smaller automobiles, with their comparatively simple mechanism. The complex machinery had to be re­ fined to a point where" it could be produced cheaply and operate on a small scale. . Electric refrigeration has now almost reached the jitney class. It will soon be considered .essential In all our kitchens. PUNT INDOOR WINDOW BOX Small Expense and Little Effort Re­ quired to Have Ornamentation Always Pleasing. To the reai garden lover the charm of the garden can be extended all through the winter months, for a window gar­ den, gives cheer to a room and is al­ ways a source of interest and delight Window boxes can be kept charming for the entire year by filling them with hardy begonias and ferns, suggests the Christian Science Monitor. Another in­ teresting arrangement, all in. green; is of small palms and ferns of the Iongr leaved Boston type, and asparagus sprengeri to trail over the edge.

Restoration W orth'Whiie; ' r ^ Why build new cottages? Wliy npt repair old ones?' These were the ques-. tlons asked by the Society for the Pro­ tection of Ancient Buildings, in Eng-; - land, and answered successfully. The society took a -.veritable.-relic .of, old England, five centuries old if a single day, in the shape of ;twp>dwfellings un­ der one roof at Drinksfofie; Ift Suffolk.' The thick timbers, seasoned to the quality of iron, Were'good, but. the roof,, the floor and the' windows were defective. In fact the building was habitable only on a .portion of the ground floor. Nothing daunted, the so­ ciety set to work and, by judicious restoration, made the old dwellings'as sound as a bell. The. total'cost of- the work, including the freehold site, was $3,612: A new cottageWould haire cost at least $4,750, not including the site.

The advent of a new “landed gentry” In England since the war is made plain by "Burke’s," an annual work of refer­ ence on that subject which has reap­ peared after a breqk of seven years. Over lOO names of old landownero have disappeared since the last edition, and their places have been taken by double that number of newcomers. In the preface, the editor remarks: “Much as the passing of old families from the land, or the -diminution of their hold­ ings, Is to be regretted, the rise of a ' new class of landed gentry, possessed of means enabling them to develop es­ tates which had become Impoverished . through the misfortunes of their pre­ vious owners, cannot be without bene, the'.Country • -• Alarm for-B anks.

As Mr. W hitley says, there is quite an intesest developing con­ cerning what is the Bible teaching on the Sabbath question. Also as' he says, “ I am sure that none of 11s wish to he in error. ’ ’ But it is cer­ tain that !OiiK of us are, for the Bible does not tearch two Ways. The trouble is with our iuteroretatious. As it is written, “ Let Qcd be true but every man a liar.” Rom. 3 :4 .' Suit doesn’t matter what M r. W . mav say or what'I may say or what any other man may say but,’ “ W hat snitli the scr p ures.” Rom. 3 :4 . Mr. W. suceeded in showing that the law of Moses is als6 called the law of the Lord (for it was given by the Lord thru Moses (Lev. 2 6 :4 6) but he failed to show that God’s ten commandment law is called Moses’ law. The text, Nell. 9 :1 3 ,1 4 which he quoted in part ,.to prove this, sounds very different wheir read in full. It says that God gave them “right judgm ent,; and true laws, good statutes and command­ ments: and inadest known unto them thy holy Sabbath, and_com- mandedst them precepts, statutes! and laws, by the hand of Moses tliy servant.” If there were not two different kind of laws given why the repetition? He ,also fajled to' show that Goil’s law is not incor­ porated in the new covenant. Un­ der the new covenant' God puts His laws in the mind and writes them in the heart. IIeb. 8 :8 -10. And still M r W . tells ns we are under the new covenant and theie- fore have 110 need of t he. law :' Mr. W. tells us that when Christ; said He came to fulfill the law H e meant that he came to blow it out. It ful­ fill means to blot out, please read the text using this expression .in­ stead of fulfill and see how sensibly it sounds. Matt. 5 :1 7 Inthesam e way please read Gal. 6 :2 and M itt. 3:15 and Jas. 2 :8 . It is doing Viol­ ence to the English language' to say that fulfill'as applied to a' law. means to destroy it. M r. W . also qrotes again Col. 2 :1 4 and I agre Ihat the sacrificial law of ordinances and ceremonies ended at Christ s death tor these things were a type and shadow of Ohrist. but is there any types or ceremonies 111 the ten commandments? T am not a.on: iu this belief as I will show later. I .am surprised that M r. W . should lake sides with the !scribe ■ and Tharisees 111 accusing Christ of disregarding the Sabbath, o f course- it is la.vful to do well on the Sab b ith. Christ is Lord of the Sab­ bath and it is for Him to say- how it should be kept. It is our own work and pleasure which we should not do on the Sabbath. Isa 58:13.14. I Cor. 16:1.2 is also quoted to show that we should meet on the first day ot the Sabbath. But is theie any thot of meeting iu the text? It savs. - let everyone of yen lay by him m store." Lotice other translation 011 this. "L et .each of. you put on one side- and store up at his home. ' Modern Speech New Testament. "Let each of you lay something by itself."'

Thex bringing fo th of such proof as this shows how hard put to it for proof are they w ho defend this position. • On the contrary. it was because Goq s law is unchangeable.that Christ had, t° die 111 order to save mail from its- condemnation. Sin is the. trans­ fusion of the Iaw -I John 3 :4 ..

If there no law there is no sin and 110 net of a Gospel to save from sin and i need of'a Savior either. O f courl those who live in liarmdnywith til requirements-of the law are 11 under the condemnation of the la Rom. 8 :1-3 . ' : * .N Now just a few questions whi I hope M r. W hifley will answer fj us.

PALMER^ ,. Henry FqriL , • Seventeen years ago Henry Ford and his wife tried-in vain to'boy a ehichpt on credit for their Thanks- givi'ffg dinner. Last vOar Ford paid the government in taxes seventy six million dollars Ford is not an edu­ cated man., He foolishly allowed his friends to persuadehim to persaade him to run for the'Senate two years ago, and was fortunately, defeated for that exalted position. .' He would have cut: a ridicular figure In the Senate two years ago, and" was tor- una’ely defeated for that exalted Dosition. He would have cut a ridi- cu'ous figure in the 'Senate .of the United States. He has probably learned his lesson which. it is. to be hoped that he .-will never forget, namely, that money can. never, take the'place of culture.v But Ford.is a big man nevertheless,' He is one of the outstanding figures in the public life of the nation. Not because be has made his fortune on automobiles but beceuselie made his money in 8 clean, and honest way. He did not allow his greed to dry-up his huma nity. He paid his labor the highest wages of any great, manufacturer in .the world. He shared- his fortune wjth those who produced it. His motive was wholly altrustic but ii proved to be the finest kind of an ad­ vertisement. and it has pot him in the first rank of the world He is just now offering to buv the great gov ernment property-known as Muscle Shoals in Alabama. He proposes .to lease this vast water power for 100 years! not as a"profit makerfor him self, but as a business investment for the whole couhtry. The South should be especially interest-in this proj­ ect, for it would mean tnore to this section than . to any Other in .the ngb at of- this wizard, but therefore his dreams have come true. He took “two streaks of rust” add made a great railroad out of it. As a foresighted business man he probably has no qgual on the face of the earth but he is much mote than 'a . great, busi ness man—he is a patriot who I oves his country, and who is a “friend to mad;” ’ It is to be hoped the gov. ernment will tiirn this'property over to him and let him have a full rein for his ambition to make it a uni versal blessing'to the people of the United Statas, In the realm of-a lit­ erature Ford is a bull in a China shop, but on a gigantic business pro­ position he is a whale of a man.— Charity and Children ' Who Remembers*.

ItJias been our -intention m til past not to expose any of the child ren to the cold and rain during til recess or .unclr period. We hail endeavored to use our best -judil inent in deciding when the weathtj is too bad to require the: cbildrej to slay .out side at noon.: It is quill possible that we have used bad-judtf nient in this matter, but as to r< quiring the children to-go out doors when it is too cold for thi teachers to do so, this lias not hapj pened. For .the last several weeks! one lady and oue man teacher, have been at'h e tcliool building darini the-noon hour, -.when the weather i- inclement, the children are allowecl to eat lunches and Temain- in tliq chapel until all -the faculty return; from lunch, then they, mav goJnt< the class rooms. However, any] child may leave the chapel and outside if he wishes. Unless eitliei] the temprature is unusually low orj it is raining, all children - are re­ quired to leave the building during] the ten minute recess. Some child-] ren who WilliIiot take part im the| games naturally get-cold and grum­ ble. My desire'is not to answer the article of last week, but to give a sympathetic, explanation: I f w e 1 have-used bad .judgment in.: this matter we sincerely trust/that 110 child has been injured, for-their wellfare, comfort and health.is in­ deed a matter m wlnch l am, deep­ ly concerned. , .-->v I have. never written* an article of this nature for any -paper, -butj I feared that from the., article of last- week under the -caption rlA Protest,” the public might draw a false conclusion. -Sincerely, F.

IREAH IS APPROVED R e a d y to Hand Back China the Lease­ hold of Wei-Hal-Wei; Japan to W ithdraw. Washington. — The W ashington ne­ gotiations for lim itation of arm am ent reached their consummation when a plenary session of the arm s confer­ ence gave definite and public approval of the two treaties lim iting navies and restricting the use of new agen­ cies of warfare. I, One of the covenants thus sealed niter eleven weeks of debate estab­ lishes a fixed ratio of capital ship strength between the,five great ,pow­ ers and the other pledges them^against unrestricted subm arine w arfare and the use of poison gas. W ithin a day or two the plenipotentiaries of the T'nited States, Great B ritain,' Japan, France and Italy will form ally affix their signatures. At the same session the far east­ ern wing of the conference moved forward toward completion of its task by announcing officially the term s of the Shantung settlem ent and by giving final approval to nine of the resolutions adopted in com m ittee in regard to Chinese problems. The agreement on Shantung already has been put into a draft treaty be* tween Japan and China, and the other far eastern settlem ents are to be em­ bodied in at -least two- general con­ ventions which will come, before the conference shortly. As soon as Japan’s intention to withdraw from Shantung had been definitely stated, the British an­ nounced formally for the first tim e that their governm ent was ready to hand back to China the lease-hold of Wei-Hal-Wei. T he; French let it be known, however, that they expected to treat directly with China over possible retirement from their leased territory it Kwang-Chow W an, a decision which appeared to becloud the prospect of any general conference agreem ent re­ garding the Chinese leased territories. Two other conference projects, one relating to the Chinese eastern rail­ way am] the other to the prohibition of im portation of arm s into China, also encountered serious obstacles when the committee work of the-del­ egates were resum ed. The Japanese made some technical objections to the Chinese eastern proposal which,‘coup­ led with ChiUese and French opposi­ tion to some features resulted in ap­ pointment of a Japanese-Frencb-Chi- nese stib-eommittee to consider a com­ promise. ’ The Italians and Japanese presented such pertinent reservations to the arm s im portation resolution that it was virtually decided not to press it for adoption. .

W ashington.—Funds to finance sol­ diers’ bonus m yst be raised by means of internal taxei^as it would be im­ practical to depend - upon proceeds from the -refunded foreign debt for this purpose, Secretary Mellon dis clared before the house ways and means committee! Reiterating - his objections to the enactm ent of bonus legislation at this time, the treasury secretary said that in levying taxes congress would have to tap mostly new sources, as the lev- ies now in effect were abnormally high for peace time.s. He opposed a gen­ eral .sales tax, re-enactment of the ex­ cess'profits tax or an increase in any existing taxes except possibly those on cigarettes, tobacco and documents. . New sources of revenue suggested by the secretary included: Three-cent first-class postage, to raise $70,000,000. * An increase in second-class postage rates to produce $30,000,000. A two-cent tax on bank checks to yield $30,000,000. A license tax of 50 cents per horse­ power- on autoniobiles; to produce $100,000,000.

Synopsis.—'Toung CarIylp W ttbtir- ton Dale, or “Bill Dale,” as he elects to be known, son of a w ealthy coal operator, John K. Dale, a r­ rives a t the H alfw ay Switch, In ’ eastern Tennessee, abandoning a life of idle ease—and incidentally a bride, P atricia Clavering, a t the al­ tar-determ ined ,to m ake his own w ay in life. He meets “Babe” Lit- tleford, typical m ountaineer girl. “By” Heck, a character of the hills, takes him to John More­ land's home. M oreland is .chief of his "clan,’' which has an old feud w ith the Ltttlefords. He tells Dale of the killing, of his brother, David / M oreland, years ago, owner of rich coal deposits, by a m an nam ed Carlyle. M oreland’s description of “Carlyle” causes Dale to believe the m an w as his father. Dale a r­ ranges to m ake his home w ith the M oreland family, for whom he en­ tertains a deep respect. Talking w ith “Babe” Llttleford next day. D ale is ordered by “Black Adam” Ball, bully of the district, to leave , “his girl” alone. Dale replies spir­ itedly, and they fight. Dale whips the bully, though badly used up. CHAPTER III—Continued. When Dale came back to a state of consciousness, he was lying under covers In the carved black walnut bed. Beside him stood John Moreland,, who held in one hand a bowl containing a hot herb brew that h|s wife had pre­ pared. Granny Heck, 'her son Bj’, and Mrs. Moreland stood not far away. "This here’ll be good fo' ye, I think,” said Moreland, nodding toward the bowl in his hand. He went over and put an arm around Dale’s shoulders and helped him to sit up. Dale drank the stuff with difficulty. “Much obliged," he muttered thickly. “I 'et'a see, did I whip—how did it end? He didn’t lick me, did he—that fellow Ball?” "He shore didn’t,” smiled Moreland. Not by a big sight. He fell out fust. His own pap won’t hardly know him, BlU l’^' ’ * * * * » • « News travels rapidly in the big hills. The Morelands began to gather at the home of their chief to see the man who had whipped Black Adam Ball; every Moreland able to walk came to see Bill Dale. For three hours he was lionized, but he didn’t enjoy It; the w ater had left many pains In his chest, and his head ached dully, and his hands stlil felt as though the bones tvere shattered in them. Came a thundershower that after­ noon, and the mountain evening fell with a chill. A fire was made in the wide stone fireplace in the guest’s room, and when'supper was o.ver the family gathered ’ there with Dale, who refused to be kept in bed. After a few minutes of silently watching grotesque shadows flit across the log walls, Dale said to John More­ land : "If your brother David could know don’t you think he’d want you to get the value out of the coal?” John Moreland bent forward to rest his chin In his hands. His sober grey eyes stared thoughtfully toward the fire, ' “I ain’t never looked at It that- away,” he said, "That’s the right way to look at It ” declared Dale. “But you shouldn’t ,sell the property as It is.” The mountaineer turned an inquir­ ing face toward his guest. “How in thunder could I handle It ef I didn’t?” “Why not let me develop It for you?" Dale said earnestly, eagerly. “I won’t Charge you anything above' ex- , Penses, and I won’t be extravagant.” “It’d take consid’able money to start things a-movin’. Have you got it?" asKed Moreland. g “No, but I can' get it. Almost any­ body would be willing to lend money on so good a thing as this, y’know.” For a little while Moreland sat there and. looked squarely at Dale, who re­ turned bis gaze without a sign of flinching. The hillman was tryim? to And a motive. “How comes It ’at you, who ain’t knowed us but two days,” he de­ manded, “can be so much int’rested In us?” The question demanded a straight­ forward answer. Dale realized that there was but one way in which he could give a satisfactory explanation, and that that was by telling the truth— but not the whole truth, as he surmised it, for then his efforts would go for naught. BforeIand was speaking again, and his eyes were brighter now. “I., agree ’at David would want us to develop the coal, ef he could know. It’s like a Ught a-breakin’ to me. But that coal Is sacred to us, Bni Dale, and afore ye fgo any fu’ther I’ll haf to ax ye to tell me all about yeself. A city man up here In the wilderness— it don’t look s’picious.

Finally halted before the Bloreland chief. “There’s nothing- I’m ashamed o gness,” he said. “I don’t like to tei| simply because I don’t like to tel!| But—I’ll do it.” H e-sat down In his sheepskin-ii rocker, lay back and closed his e| as though to visualize. the story, live it over. “Maybe it’s not very much in favor, John Moreland,” he began, never could get along with my parml or with the set I was bom into. Soj| how, I was different. Father mother wanted me to be a dandy; tv eyen wanted me to let a servant d _. me. The climax came when they to marry me to a young woman didn’t want me any more than I v ed her.” He opened his eyes, looked sms at BIoreland, and went on: “You see, they wanted to m e r in order to unite old 'CIavering1S ebe CepyrigUt by DonMeA&r, P»g* * Ce- ose be­ ttor, he I I it it. bed yes to |my ‘I Jits, JIne- nd Hey ;ht “You See, They Wanted to Marry In Order to Unite Old C lav erin js .

I cho Bobby BfcLaurin for my best man, ai I wouldn’t give him up. “It was only when we met befo the chancel Inl a big crowded chur- that I fully realised the tragedy of for Pat. I saw that her face was clean white, and that her eyes he the shadow of something that w very terrible. I turned my head a; saw the same shadow In the eyes my greatest friend, Bobby McLaur I knew then. Bohby and Patricia Iov- each other, John Moreland! Bot didn’t have any money to speak | r ’ and that hod held them 'apart. “It had been the’-finest thing In : world, McLaurln’s acting as best m for me. There was friendship for y I couldn't take from-them their a chance of- happiness. . . . “I couldn't see anything else to .- so I ran. I went home, pulled o ff: wedding rig and p u t. on the cSee.

I asked If: how he knew where to find me. £ said; “ I thought yea wouldn't can stay here after doing what you did, and I wanted to say good-by, Bill.' He always called me that, and it made me feel like a man. T hen,I put my bag down and took him by both shoul­ ders and told him this: “ ‘Look here, Bobby, I’m going to give you some advice, and you lakei it. You steal Pat and m arry her. .’Steal Pat and marry her if you have to live in a hole in a hillside.. You’re as good as any of them, and lots better than most of them. You can work your way to a better salary. You see,’ I told him, ‘we get about what we deserve in this world. Most of us don’t deserve much.’ “I asked him if mother was badly cut up. He said she was; that she had fainted. Dad swore ialoud, he said, there In church. I told Bobby good-by and got aboard the train without say­ ing anything about where I was go­ ing—bur I didn't know myself where I was going, at the time. “Now you’ve heard it. Every word was truth. If you'll trust me with the coal, TH make this land my land, your people my people. I’ll suffer with you when you suffer, and be happy with yon when you're happy; and when you fight 111 fight with you.” The Moreland chief arose, and Bill Dale arose. The hillman put out his hand, and Dale gripped it. “I believe in ye. Bill,” said John Moreland. “Fo’ another thing, I’ve seed ye fight You can work the coal.’ He looked toward the closed inner door and called, “Oh, Addle; you and the boys can come back now.” Out of the night a face appeared at one of the small windows,' It was a feminine face and handsome rather than pretty. Two slender, sunburned hands gripped the window-ledge netv- ously. The face pressed closer to the glass, then disappeared.” Soon after­ ward the outer door of the guest’s room opened, and Ben Littleford’s daughter entered. Her skirts were dripping wet. Mrs. Moreland , arose and went to­ ward the young woman. She knew that only something of great impor­ tance could bring a Littleford Into her ,home In this fashion. “W hat’s the matter, Babe?” Babe Littleford gave no attention to Mrs. BIoreland. She went on to BilliDalet walking softly on bare feet. “Black Adam is a-goin’ to kill you tonight, Bill Dale.” .“That so?” Dale’s smile was rather grim. “How did you find that out, Biiss LIttleford ?”• “I fouud it out, all right As he went off from the river this mornin’, I made fun of him ; and he patted the stock of his rifle and said he’d git you through a window! He was at our house this evenin’ to help fix pap’s gun, and when he left he started this way, a-goin’ by the blowed-down syca­ more. I waded the river at Blue Cat shoals to beat him here. I thought you might want to know about it, so’s ye could mebbe save other folks the trou­ ble o’ makin’ a funeral fo’ ye.” She backed toward the door, her eyes never leaving Dale’s face. Another second, and she was gone. ' They were all on their feet now. John Moreland gripped Dale’s arm. “Over th a r, aside o’, the chimbley, Bill I” he ordered, his native drawl for the moment ’ absent. “Out, • Addie, honey! Luke, brjng my rifle and hat— jump keen! Cale, bring water and drownd this here fire!” / It was done. Moreland took his hat and the repeater and went alone Into the night. . When some fifteen minutes had passed, there came to,-Dale’s ears the sound of sharing.. There w ere-ten shots in such rapid succession that they made almost a continuous roar. Then came echoes and reverberations, and then silence. Soon John Moreland let himself into the dark room. His wife’s voice was low and filled with anxiety: “What happened, John?” A dull thud came through the dark­ ness as'her husband’s rifle-butt struck the floor. “This is what happened. Addle: As I passed the cawner o’ the house, T got down that thar old oxwhlp to take along. I went acrost the road and Into the meadow, and thar I seen Adam Ball a-comin*. I hid, and-when Adam was about to pass me. I jumped up and jerked his rifle from him and busted It ag'in a rock. Then i lights In and thrashes him with the oxwhlp ontel he broke and run. And 'en this here happened. Addle: “I was a-WMchin’ to see ef Adam, had reely went 'c^f, when I seed a man a-comin’ toward me fast. I thought it was BalL o’ course. So I up and tells him to show me how fast hq can run and commences a-shootin’ over, his head to skeer him. But it didn’t happen to be Adam Ball—It was Ben Ltttleford! He was a-follerin’ Babe to see what she was up to, o’ course.” “How do ye know It was Ben, pap?” Caleb asked. “How do I know?” growled John Moreland. “When I got through a- shootln’, he hoUera at me and says: Tomorrow, John Moreland,' he says! ■well have a little Gettysburg o’ our own!’ And I might mind ye.

CHAPTER IV . / The Mystery of the Rifles. Au hour - after John Moreland had sent b bten rifle bullets whining over the head of Ben Littleford, every Moreland and every Littleford In the valley knew of the declaration of war.' And each man of them oiled his weap­ ons and put them in better working order. When Dale went to bed, there was too much on his mind to render sleep­ ing easy for him. Tomorrow he would have to.help In the fight against the Lit- tlefords, kinsmen of the young woman who had saved him, without- doubt, from death by the murderous rifle of the mountaineer Goliath—or break his word flatly. It was a poor return for such a favor! The longer he thought over the dilemma, the mgje perplexed he became. He thought, too, of the everlasting wonder, the tail of John Moreland’s bedtime prayer. How a man could go down on his knees and ask the bless- lugs of the Almighty upon men whom he meant to fight the next day m i a thing that Bfil Dale could not under­ stand. It was after midnight before - he slept. He woke at the break of day, arose and dressed himself, and went out. Going toward the flower-filled front yard, he found himself facing a very angry John BIoreland, “W hat's the matter?” he asked. “M atter Bnough," clipped the moun­ taineer. “Bill Dale, I’m a-goin’ to ax you a question, and-.I want the truth. Will I git it?” ‘You’ll get the truth if you get any­ thing. Shoot the question.” “AU right. W hat do you know about my gun?” “About as much as you know of the left hind wheel of Ben H ur's chariot. W hat’s, wrong with it?” Moreland’s eyes were steady and F lI Moreland’s Eyes Were Cold. Steady and cold. H e. thrust his hands into \the pockets of his corduroy trousera. Then his face softened a trifle. “I reckon I ought to ax yore par­ don,” he said In a low voice. “Ye see, my gun’s plumb gone!” “You had it only last night,” Dale said. “Did it disappear—” “W hilst I slept,” cut In the hillman. “Both o’ my guns is gone. And .Luke’s repeater Is gone, and so is Ca’.e’s, and we hain’t got nothin’ at, all to fight them d—d Littiefords with!” “Gone !” Dale exclaimed wondering- Iy and—it seemed to him—asininely. lIt must ha’ been the Littiefords, I- guess,” frowned Moreland. “Po* be­ cause who else would ha’ done it? But to save the life ojm e I cain’t see ho,w they got in and took my rifle without wakin’ me up, Bill Dale. I slept twlcet as light as Ja sick mouse." Within ten more minutes, every man of the Morelands was gathered there at the house of their chief—and every man of them had lost their weapons during the' night! .John Moreland called Dale and sa,id to h im :. “You’re high on the good side o’ them thar- trillin’ Hecksj1 and, so fer as they: know, you ain’t int’rested In the feud.- I wisht you’d go down thar and see By and his mother, and see ef ye can find out whar qur rifles went.” - ■ When, .Dale had gone off down the dusty oxwagon road, Caleb Moreland Climbed a tall ash that grew behind his father’s cabin and kept a watch toward jhe Littleford side of the river. He saw ,a group of men standing In Ben Littleford’s cabin yard, and noth­ ing else. , ■ A little more than a quarter of an hour after D ale' left John Moreland be entered by the gateless gatew ay at the: cabin of the Hecks. It was a dif lapidated place, and it stood not far from lhe -river:: By sat in th- / ■ / ''.''--J J:• • J: f- aside doorway; he was lazily cutting A a m midday sun m ark In. the place of the old one. Behind him sa t f”~ who was' busily knittingworn mother, gray yarn stocking. The moonshiner looked up and start­ ed quickly to his feet. “Hi, thar, Bill, old boy!” he greeted cordially. “My gosh, but ye’ve come a t the right time, shore.

Uome right in, Bill, old boy.” “La, la„ la!” cried Granny Heck, looking over the brass rim s of her spectacles: “How glad I am to see ye, Blr.

The Littiefords,” said Dale, “have declared war.” 1Sakes I" laughed the old woman. “We knowed that last night when we heered them ten shots.” And ail the Moreland rifles are missing.” Dale watched the effect of his words. “W hat!” the Hecks cried In one voice. Their surprise seemed genuine: Dale pressed the subject further and learned only that if they knew any­ thing -Concerning the disappearance of the rifles they were not going to telL Then he started homeward by wflj of the pool above the blown-down syc­ amore. There was a chance that Ben LlttIo ford’s daughter would be there fishing, Dale told himself, and it was barely possible thgt .she, could throw some light on the mystery of the rifles, H e-crossed the river by means of the prostrate tree. Babe w as there; she sat on-the stone on which she had been sitting the morning before; her back was to him, and her bare feel were In the water to her ankles. Dal* went up close, stopped and gathered a handful of violets and dropped them o'yer her shoulder and, into her lap. Babe looked around and smiled. “W hat luck. Miss Littleford?” "Nothin’: I .don’t much want- t* ketch anything,” she said slowly, s Spirit of sadness in her musical voice, “I—I jest come off down here to be whar it’s quiet. You ought to hear the noise ’at pap and the rqst of ’em ia a-makin!’,’ Dale narrowed his eyes. “Are they— er, making a noise? And what about?” ”My goodness gracious alive I You’d think so ef ye could hear ’em ! Y’ougbt t tf 'hear pap cuss John M oreland!” She shrugged her pretty shoulders, lifted the small end of her rod to Its proper place, and went on, “I never did see' pap half as mad as he was when he got home last night from a-follerin’ me.” “Mad at you?" asked Dale. "No; but he would ha’ been ef he hadn’t ha’ had all his madness turned ag’ln them Morelands. You knowed about pap’s trouble on yan ’side o’ the river last night?” Yes, I knew about that,” Dale an­ swered slowly. “Bpt John -Moreland thought your father was my antago­ nist of yesteray.” An—antagonist?” B abe, m uttered inquiringly. “What’s that?” I mean Adam Bali, y’know.” STOMAeH t'TAREH ,thate farm, nasal v ) catarrh, ^ IN BSE rBmYEflRS _ Eerdses a sooth* g j?. healing effectup-1 _i all mucous linings, fj rBelching gas, sour atom* I ach, nausea, vomiting, I ■Siamp8* pains In the abdo-1 nen, diarrhoea, constipa- I tionarp all symptoms of a E catarrhal condition in the I organa of digestion.

This is and one that Loss Caused by Decrease In MiIkTIowf Destruction of Hides and Meat Wastage. VThe little ox-warble means an ac­ tual cash loss of $50,000,000 to the United Stqtes each year,” stated F. C. Bishop, of Dallas, Tex., In an address before the American Association- for the Advancement of Science, at their meeting in Toronto, recently. “The loss comes,” he said, “through a falling off, in the milk flow, illness among the cattle, due to irritation and worry, destruction of hides and wast-, age’ o f meat when the beast finally goes to the block.” ° “When the grubs reach the back of the animal,” said the speaker, “they make their presence apparent' by the lump or swelling their body causes. Gradually they make their way out, through the back of the animal and drop off, to begin all over again their life history. The only hope of dealing with the pest lies In energetic action by cattle owners in working out and destroying the warbles from the backs of their stock. The herd should be gone over 'systematically every 30 days, the grubs squeezed out and de­ stroyed. Of course, even then, there is loss because of the;holes left in the hide; five punctures 6f the back or sides by warbles reduce any hide to No. 2 grade.” CLEANING AND GRADING SEED - * ,, No Other Single Farm Operation Which Gives Larger Returns in Producing Crops.' . There Is no Single farm operation so easily and cbe.aply done, which gives larger returns than the thorough cleaning and grading of all seed sown. B erides'cleaning out the weed seeds, the light weight seeds are taken out when the job is properly done, thus preventing , the reproduction of the poorer plants. This practice carried on year .after year permits the In­ crease Of the "best and kills out the poorest. Thorough cleaning and grading of all' seeds planted is the first step toward a successful 'crop. Therp is no time like the present to put the seed In proper shape for plant­ ing. Among the lesser and more senti­ mental sacrifices the British feel they are making for Irish peace, there is the prospect of the changed Union Jack. , The diagonal red cross In the Union Jack stands for Ireland. The original national flag was the: banner of St. George, a, plain red cross, on a white baelcground. In 1606 the Scottish flag, a white diagonal cross: and .a blue background, was blended with the white upright ' cross, with a blue background of the diagonal white cross being added. (f 'On the death of Charles I the-cross" of St. George again became the na­ tional flag, but in 1706, ■ after the union with' Scotland, the cross stand­ ard with the blue background was restored. In 1801 the red cross of St. Patrick was superimposed on St. An­ drew’s cross, making the present Union Jack. Beautiful Girl Mistaken In Thinking She Had Made Impression on Attractive Stranger.

Many' people feel that they have to be51 agitated into wake­ fulness in the morning. They think that without the tea or coffee they take in the nioniing that ,they will not be able to meet the tasks and duties of the day. Nothing could be more false than this reasoning. Any doctor c a n tell you this. For a healthy ’ body does not require a .stim­ ulant. It gets ail the stimulant it needs from food. The thein and caffeine found in tea and coffee are irritating to the heart and nervous system. They jolt the nerves into undue activity. Ih e result is a reac­ tion. This is why regular tea and coffee drinkers think they must have their stimulant the first thing in "the morning to wind them up for the day. If you will stop using tea and coffee for a week, and drink Postum, the pure cereal bever­ age instead, it will give Nature an opportunity to rid the system of die irritating substances that harass your nerves, upset di­ gestion, increase your heart action, and make you nervous and irritable; Many people who have tried Postum say that inside of a week they wake in the morn­ ing without that “all gone” feel­ ing that .they used to have, and are full of energy, strength and endurance; Order Postum from your grocer today, and make it ac­ cording to directions.

But what can con­ gress do? Whichever wav it turns, whatever it does, it is sure to be bit­ terly criticised.. The farmer wants one thing, the manufacturer warts another,'other interests wants other things, and fo it goes clear on down the list. If the special legislation desired by one class is enacted into law it interferes with the ambition and desires of other classes. If the farmer is given whpt he wants {ie is sure of better prices for his products but,that increase is paid by the man­ ufacturer and every other class of people If the manufacturer is granted protective legislation, the\ farmer, as well as the rest of us. dig down and pay the increased cost df manufactured products. Even if a fellow gets all that he demands from congress he is sure to go on a kick­ ing spree because somebody eise is getting what he demands at the ex­ pense of everybody else. In other words, this xount-ry is just one great arena in which . everybody wants something special, but doesn’t want to grant other people the same privi­ lege Really, now, what can congress do?

BEfOBETHE SENj i ’ — — ASKS SENATE TO GIVE ITSl PROVAL TO ARMS CONFE| ENCE, TREATIES. PROMPT ACTION REP >TEO STSP WORK SN 14 SHIPS 6TEP WAS TAKEN IN ANTICIPA­ TION OF NAVAL TREATY RATIFICATION. Building Operations Suspended Have Cost the Government Approxi­ mately $5,000,000 a Month. Washington.—Construction work on fourteen capital ships was suspended by order of Secretary Denby under di­ rection of President Harding. The step was taken in anticipation of rati­ fication of the naval lim itation treaty which resulted from the W ashington conference and under which only three of the vessels involved will be completed as war craft. The other 11 will be scrapped or - converted into merchant ships under the treaty pro­ visions. Secretary Denby acted after Assist­ ant Secretary Roosevelt had discussed with President Harding the ternm of the treaty affecting the new ships, Sir. Harding approved the suggestion that work be brought to a standstill immediately on the eight superdread- naughts and six battle cruisers, pend­ ing final action on the treaty. In round figures the building operations thus halted have cost the government approximately $5,000,000 a month. Following ratification of the tieaty contracts for the new ships will be cancelled. The ultim ate cost to the government of this cancella­ tion cannot be determined in advance but naval officers believe that a con­ siderable saving ’ will be made through the action. Only one capital ship under con­ struction was exempted from sus­ pension order. She is the Colorado, more than 90 per cent complete and which will be retained in the perma­ nent fleet. - Ships on which work was stopped included eight first-class battleships: the Washington, at the New York shipbuilding corporation; the W est Virginia, Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock company; the South Dakota, New York navy yard; the Indiana, New York navy yard; the Montana, Mare Island navy yard; the North Carolina, Norfolk navy yard; the Iowa, Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock company, and the Mas- sacuhsetts, Bethlehem Shipbuilding corporation. Fore River, Mass. Work was also ordered suspended on six battle cruisers, as follows: Lexington, Bethlehem Shipbuilding corporation; Constellation, Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock com­ pany; Saratoga, New York Shipbuild­ ing corporation; Ranger, Newport, News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock company; Constitution and United States, Philadelphia navy yard.

W ashington. — The advisability of reducing the tim e danse In' Henry Ford’s offer for the lease of the Mus­ cle Shoals, AIa., government owned lands, from 100 to 50 years was ques­ tioned indirectly by M ajor General Lansing H. Beach, chief of arm y en­ gineers, In testimony before the house m ilitary cbmmittee. , Referring to the general policy of the government not to lease its prop erfies for a perfed exceeding 50 years, General Beach In his testi­ mony at the second day of the h ear ing of the committee on the Ford proposal said that "it is not! always advisable to apply one general rule to things big and sm all.” Secretary W eeks, who was heard by the cominittee, declared repeated­ ly that in his opinion it would be un­ wise to perm it the lease of public lands or properties - to private inter­ ests for so long a period as one hundred years. General Beach, how­ ever, said that it was “a question in as big and im portant a m atter as this w hether the 50 years rule would not work a hardship.” It was his belief, the general con­ tinued, that in the disposition of the properties at Muscle Shoals, the par­ amount consideration should be the effect upon the. nation’s defense rath­ er than the m anufacture of fertilizer. The country, he said, should not be "caught again” w ithout an adequate nitrate supply. The disadvantages of installing power plants In Alabama and estab lishlng a m arket for their output were dwelt upon a t length by the en­ gineer chief. He said it would be comparatively easy to install a plant at Niagara Falls, with a m arket close by, but it was quitei another feat, from the ^standpoint of time, to do so in a sparsely settled region likei that about Muscle Shoals, with only four cities within reasonable dis­ tance. The engineer officer was preceded on the witness stand by M ajor Gen­ eral W illiams, chief of ordnance, who occupied the greater part of the day’s sessions explaining valuations of -properties involved In the Ford offer. He estim ated that the W ar­ rior power plant and,' transm ission line could be salvaged for $3^00,000 or more, and declared under exami­ nation by'com m ittee members that figure was three-fifths of all that Mr. Ford had offered for the nitrate plant's and other properties. Thesb properties, it was estimated, had a scrap value to the government o r $8,- 812,000 and would be worth $16,272,- 000 if made partially operative and the rem ainder salvaged. created I in 1920, Arrerfed After 17 Years.

Number of Blind Persons Decreases. W ashington.-^The number of blind persons in the United States der from 57,272 in 1910 to 52,617 acording to figures for the last census announced by the, census bureau. The decrease was attributed in part to advanced methods for treat­ m ent of blindness and also to educa­ tion of the ,public in the preven­ tion of blindness. Rescued Men Land In Newport -News. Newport News, Va--RefTeshed by a few hours' sleep, and, apparently little concerned about their exper­ ience in being rescued from Jtbeirt burning ship, members of the crew of the steam ship Northern Pacific de­ scribed the fire and the rescue but remained silent when questioned - as to the possible cause of the disaster. Meantime, CapL W illiam Lustie, the m aster of the Northern Pacific, pre-. pared a detailed report for the ship­ ping board and left for Norfolk. Navy Yards Lay Off Thousands. W ashington.—The first effects of the arm am ent conference on the em­ ployment situation were felt when several thousand mechanics and arti­ ficers in navy yards were temporarily laid off after Secretary Denby had ordered suspended all ordnance work designed for the naval'vessels slated for “scrapping” under the naval limi­ tation treaty.

I “To disarm the Morelands so that when the enemy comes they will have nothing with which to defend them­ selves!" Dale didn’t know much about these hill feuds. “No. Miss Lit- tleford, I can’t say that I think it was a kind thing to do.” Mlss Littleford arose and faced Dale. Her cheeks were flushed. “Has the inemy"-come!” she de­ manded Icily. “No, but—’’ “All right," the young woman broke /In sharply. "If the inemy hain’t come, what’re you a-klckin’ about?” ' Her brown eyes were full of fire. They defled, and they withered, and Bill Dale suddenly felt that he was smaller and of less account In the scheme of things than that uneducat­ ed, wildly superb creature that stood before him. “I beg pardon," Dale said evenly. “I didn’t mean to offend, y'know.” His quick contrition struck the girl.' Her mouth quivered. She dropped her fishing-rod, and began to toy ab­ sently with the end of her long, thick plait of brown hair. "i’ve seed so much o’ this fightin’,” she murmured tremulously, “that It mnkes -ae go to pieces. I ought to beg yore pardon, mebbe, and I d-do. . . . i've seed a good many fine, strong men brought home dead or a-dyln* from the Moreland bullets. And the Uttlefords lfes killed Morelands, too. One side about as many as t’other, 'I reckon. I’d be glad to give my life to stop it!” •TH help you, if I can,” Dale told hoc. “Perhaps we can make friends of the Morelands and your people.” , “You don’t know what a hard thing It’d be,” she replied tearfully. “The two sets -has hated each other ever sence I can rickollect. And you won’t be here very long, I reckon." “I may be here for the rest of my Mfe,” said Dale. ’ “Is it the coal?” inquired Babe. “Partly—yes, it's the coal. I’m go- . Ing to develop It for the Morelands."/ Babe looked at him with a tiny her­ ald of hope In her eyes. Before she could'speak again there came from somewhere back In the meadow the sound of her father’s voice— “L abeI O-oh, Babel” “Cornin’I” cried the girl, half turn­ ing. “We’ll try to make ’em friends; we’ll try. Old Major Bradley, he’ll be up here afore long to spend the sum­ mer, and he’ll help us. He’s a mighty good m an; you’re shore to like him. He gon’ally stays with us when he's here.

Goodby, Bill Dale!” “One moment Mlss Uttleford,” and he took a step after her. “Are you sure there’s no danger right now?” Babe halted, faced about nervously, and smiled a. little. ' “Don’t call me ‘Miss’ no more,” said she. “It makes me feel old. Call me what everybody else calls me, ef ye don’t mind. Why, 'every one o’ the LitlIefords lost their rifles last night the same as the Morelands did I Meet - me here at sundown, and r u tell ye about It.

Thank goodness. It was on Sunday, and none of ’em didn’t have their rifles with ’em. W hat­ ever else we are or ain’t up here. Bill Dale; we gen’ally respects the Sabbath day to keep it holy. . . .” “I see,” Dale muttered sympathet­ ically. “I’ve seen my own mother set down In the floor and take her boy’s head In her lap—oh, such a big, flne boy he was!—Whllethe blood run through her dress from a Moreland’s bullet He died with mother’s arms and mine around him. It was all we could do fo’ him, was to love him. Tve seen sis­ ters watch their brothers die from Moreland bullets, and young wimmen watch their sweethearts die, and wives watch their husbands die. . . . . “I 'tell you, Bill Dale, them More­ lands never misses when they have even half a fair shot You’d be puf- fectiy safe In a-lettln’ any of ’em shoot dimes from a tween yore finger and thumb all day. And it’s the same way with the LIttlefords. They’re fighters, too, every one, and they don’t give in any more than the Morelands does. ‘Addie Moreland knows w hat' it is to take her dyin’ boy’s head In her lap. whilst blood run through her dress to her knees. His name was Charley, and he was bad; he’d drink, and oncet he shot up Cartersville. But Addie, she alius loved him better'n Cale or Luke. Wlmmen like her alius loves the worst boys the. best; ’cause they need it the most, the worst boys does. ’It’s the wimmen that pays, Bill Dale, when the’s fighUn’. The wim­ men o’ this valley is right now on needles; they're afeatd the men’ll find their rifles. You can- guess whar the guns went to now, cain’t ye? The wim­ men hid ’em last night atter the men had gone to sleep I By good luck, they had almost a whole night fo’ it. You must be shore to keep it to yourself— but I know ye will. Addie Moreland, she started the idee. S.he got Granny Moreland to spread the word amongst the wimmen o’ my .people. When the llghtin’ fever sort o’ dies down the guns’ll all be brought back and put whar they belong." She arose and stood there smiling down upon him. H e was staring at the swirling w ater' without seeing it at all. H er voice brought him to himself. “W hat’re you a-thinkin’ about, Bill Dale?” - Dale went to his feet. He' saw that she was sm iling,and he smiled, too. 'I was thinking,” he said, “of the difference between you and some other women I know.” H er clear brown eyes widened. ’And I reckon I seem party no ’count, don’t I?” “No, not at all. It is—er. quite the opposite, Babe. You make them ap­ pear unreal, artificial,” Babe LltUeford’s countenance bright­ ened. She did not doubt that he meant it. He was not of the sort that flat­ tered. She began to like Bill D al^ at that same moment. And Bill Dale told himself as he went homeward that he w as beginning to like Babe U ttleford. He did not fight tbe feeling, because It somehow made the world seem a better place. Harly the following morning Dale made ready for his journey to Cincin­ nati. Haying learned the evening be­ fore that he was going, By Heck had come to accompany him to the Half­ way switch. The two set o u t They had three bouts In which to cross David More­ land’s mountain before the arrival of Dale’s train, and they walked lei­ surely. They had not gone a dozen rods when there came from somewhere down near the river the sound of a rifle shot Both stopped and faced about quickly. TIl be dadgummed 'ef the Little- fords ain’t found their weepons!” ex­ claimed By Heck. “They have, igod, As Shore as dangltl" -* “How do yon know?” Dale’s voice was troubled. , “I shore know,” and Heck narrowed his gaze. “ ’At was Ben Littleford’s old .45 Winch. Td know that gun ef I heered it at the nawth pole. Tbe b ar! it’s been cut off, and It don’t sound like other Winchesters.” “Caleb Moreland was down near the river leaning out the ^pringhOuso ditch, Dale mattered, facing his com­ panion., I think we’d better go back.” Togetner Hiey went back ta cabin/ John Moreland and his wife and their son Luke were standing at the weatherbeaten front gate, with their eyes turned anxiously toward the river. Caleb was coming up through the meadow, and he carried his hat In his band.. “Who fired that shot?” asked Dale. “Ben U ttleford,’’ John Moreland an­ swered readily. Two minutes later Caleb leaped the .old rail fence on the other side of the road and approached them hastily. He wtm/breathing rapidly and his strong young face was drawn and pale—with father, “what is It?” ~ .,Caleb- held -up his broad-rimmed Jilack hat and ran a finger-/through a hole In the upper part of the crown’s peak. “He didn’t miss I” snapped John Moreland. “No,” quickly replied Caleb, “he didn't miss, He don’t never miss. You know that, pap, as well as ye know God made ye. H e done It jest to show m e be meant what he said. H e told me to go and tell you to gether up yore set^ o’ rabbit-hearted heatlaems and come down to tjje river fo’ a Iead- and-powder picnic, onless ye was a- skeered to come! H e said to tell ye the wlmmenfolks had hid our guns, and we’d find ’em onder the house floors.” John Moreland took It with utter calmness, though bis face was a little pale behind his thick brown beard. H e turned to his wife, who looked at him squarely. “Addle, honey,” said be, “Tm mighty sorry." ' "Hf—ef you was much sorry, John,” Mrs. Moreiand half sobbed, “ye wouldn’t go down thar to the river.” “Me a coward?”- Moreland appeared to grow an Inch in statu re “Me let a U ttleford send-me news like this here which Cale brings,'and not do nothin’ a t all about it? I thought you knowed me better’n that, A ddie” He faced his two stalw art sons. Al­ ways he was the, general, the leader of his clan. He sent Caleb In one di­ rection and Luke In another, to arouse his kinsmen. ' Then he beckoned to Dale, who had been trying hard but vainly to think of something to do or say that would be of aid to the cause of the women. “I don't w ant you in /this here mix- up,” ..he said • decisively. “You must stay clean out of- it. You ain’t used to this way o’ llghtin’. Asides, you’re our hope. More’n that, mebbe, you owe yore life to Babe U ttleford; you cain’t get around that, Bill Dale.” He went on, after a moment, “Ef I git my light put out today, I want ye to do the best ye can with the coaL They Dropped to Their Hands and Knees and Began to Crawl Through the Tall Grasses, the Ironweed and the Mbadow Clover* But o’ course ye will. I want ye to do me two favors. Bill Dale, ef I have my light put out today. Will ye do ’em fo’ me, my friend?” .. “Certainly,” Dale promised. “Much obliged to ye, shore. The fust Is this: I want ye to take good pay out o’ w hat the coal brings, pay fo’ yore work.; The secotid is this: I want ye to go to, Ben Littleford atter I’m done—pervlded he is yet alive— and tell him about the end o’ my bed­ time prayer; I want him to know I went him one better, ’at I was a big­ ger man inside ’an -him. Kemember, Bill,-you’ve done promised me. Now you go ahead to Cincinnaty, and do Jest like ye didn’t know the least thing about this trouble we’re a-goin’ to have. So long to ye, an’ good luck'” “I don’t like the idea”—Dale began, when the big hlllman interrupted sharply: y •Go on I here!” Heck started. Dale turned and fol­ lowed the lanky moonshiner; there seemed to be nothing else to do. When: they had reached a point a tittle way above the foot of David Moreland’s mountain, the pair halted and looked back.- They saw the Llttle- fords and the Morelands, every one of them armed, going toward the river. It had a strange and subtle fasdna- Mom for Bill Deie, a fascination that Jie did not then/try to understand. As the lighttirs reached dangerous ground they dropped to their hands and knees and began to crawl through the tall grasses, the Ironweed and tbe meadow clover. were intent You cain’t do no good upon reaching ther> h«i« a t the that lined the banks of the. river with out being seen. The stream here war more than fifty yards w ide; this was Blue C at shoals. The two. tines of trees stood back a rod or so from the water, making the final shooting dis­ tance some seventy yards. Drawled H eck: “Le’s se t down here and watch it; hey?” Dale was silent The' very air filled with the spirit of tragedy. The faroff tinkle of a cowbell seemed tragic; tragic, too, sounded the song of a bird somewhere In the tree branches overhead. “Did ye-fiear me, Bill?” “I think,” Dale m uttered, “th at Td better not go away until tomorrow. I can’t leave m atters like this. Do you know of any way to stop that down there?” By Heck shrugged his shoulders. “Do you know o' any way to ,stop the risin’ and settin’ o’ the sun?” he grinned. They went back to John M orelands cabin., « • • * It was altogether by accident that the U ttleford chief found his weapons. H e had-dropped a small coin through a crack In the floor. Babe was quick to. say that she would crawl under the house and look for the coin, although she had just pu t on a freshly laun­ dered blue-and-white calico dress. H er anxiety showed plainly in her face. H er father questioned her sharply, and she stammered In spite of herself. Ben Littleford’s suspicions were aroused. So he came out from under the cabin floor with his hands full of the steel o f rifle barrels, /and - with the money forgotten. H e placed the rifles care­ fully on the floor of ,the porch, turned and caught his daughter by the arm, “Who hid ’em?” he demanded gruffly. “I hid ’em,” was the ready answer, defiant and bitter—“I, me I W hat’re you a-goin’ to do about it?’ U ttleford flung his daughter’s arm from him. He was king, even as John Moreland was king. His keen eyes stared at the young woman’s face as though they would wither It. “W hat made you hide ’’em?” be growled. “Say, w hat made ye do It?” “To try. and save human lives, ’at’s why!” Babe answered. “T hat man from . the city—what’ll he think o’ ua a-doin’ this-away, a-flghtin’ like crazy wildcats?” “Hf he don’t like the way we do here, he can go back home,” retorted the angry mountaineer. “H e ain’t'tied, is he?’ Bdbe smiled a smile that was some­ how pitiful, and turned off. » “The’ ain’t no use in a-argyin’ with you, pap,” she said hopelessly. “I—I might’ nigh wisht I was' dead.” At that instant the gate creaked open. Babe glanced toward It and saw coming th at black beast of u man, Adam Ball the Goliath, and he was armed heavily; In ope hand he carried a new high-power repeating rifle, and around his great w aist there w as a new belt bristling with long, bright smokeless cartridges fitted with steel- jacketed bullets. • * ; « When Dale and his companion reached the cabin, Addie Moreland met them. Anxiety w as breaking her heart. “Mr. Dale,” she pleaded, “I w ant you to go down thar to the river and see ef the’s anything ye can do to stop it afore it begins. You jest walk ou| bold In the open and ye won’t be shot at, and I’ll be obleeged to ye; Oh, I know the’ ain’t but one-ehanst In teg thousand, but I’m a-prayin’ ye’ll strike that one chanst.” Dale knew th at he could do nothing toward bringing peace, and he knew that John Moreland would be angry a t .his interfering. But he nodded and went toward the river. H e didn’t have the heart in him to refuse. '- Then there came the keen thunder of a. rifle shot. Dale halted for a moment. Between two sycamores on the nearer side of the river he saw a puff of smoke ris­ ing lazily from behind a w ater oak ou the farther side; a U ttleford had fired first. Dale went on, moving rapidly and trying to keep himself alwayB In plain view.. The fend forgotten. . - (TO BE CONTINUED.)

To win a race a Jockey doesn’t put extra weight on the horse that helps him succeed No man or woman who wants to succeed in the race of life can afford the handicap of headaches, insomnia, indiges­ tion and debility. Nor can they afford ,to take anything that may keep up a continual irrita­ tion of the nervous system. Yet this is what many peo­ ple do who drink excessive amounts of tea or coffee. For tea and coffee contain caffeine, a substance that is sometimes very injurious. Many doctors say that caffeine raises the ldood pressure, irritates the kidneys, - and over-stim ulates the entire nervous System. Also tiiat it is especially bad for growing children, or for any one who has any tendency to ner­ vousness or insomnia.

USE HOBSB FOR HEAVY WORK Small Grower Need Not Make Large Investment In New A pparatus- Economical to Use Mowers of • 1 the Larger Sizes. ,Prepared by the United State, Department of Agriculture.) Much labor Is wasted In harvesting hay, not necessarily because of Idle­ ness, but because wrong methods, in­ efficient management and improper or imperfect implements are employed, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Oh farms where considerable hay is grown, they say, methods must be adopted by which the greater part of the heavy labor is done by horses. This will necessitate the general use of cer­ tain types of labor-saving machinery, some of them not so common in the East, which have been thoroughly test­ ed and proved satisfactory in the west­ ern part of the United States, .-'lie small hay grower," however, need not make a very- lieavy investment in new haying apparatus, for, by rearranging the working of his crew, and using a little more horse labor for the hard work, he can add considerably to the efficiency; of his crew. Time of Mowing Is Important. The time of day when the mower is started has a direct bearing on the amount of hay made per day and the number of men required. This is espe­ cially true on farms where it is the custom to haul' or stack hay in the afternoon only. If mowing is done in the morning and raking in the after­ noon, more men and horses than usual Will be required, and if mowing and raking are both done in the afternoon, still more men and horses 'will be needed. The five-foot cut is the most common size used In the East, but it will be economy to use larger mowers; six, seven and even eight-foot sizes can be used on a great many farms. Some idea of the time saved by using these larger sizes may be had when the dif­ ference In the amount of work done by each is known. Under average condi­ tions, a- five-foot mower will cut ten acres In ten hours, a six-foot mower will cut 12 acres, a seven-foot 14 acres* and an eight-foot about 16 acres In ten hours. It should be borne in mind that more power is required for the W ?fa. rnt^V oL.'-.''. ~ ' I , COWPEAS GERMINATE SOON AFTER SOWING When Seedlings First Appear TheyAreTender. Ordinary Machines Used In Corn Culti­ vation .

When the seedlings first appear above the ground they are very tender and are easily broken, so that care must be exer­ cised In working them. Usually the prop may be cultivated In two or three weeks after sowing. Ground sown to \4feS ft*** A f‘ Ni m m m tu , 0 2 *1K W ^T f t Cowpcas Grown' With Corn Makes Good. Feed. cowpeas is sometimes packed by heavy rains soon after sowing. A harrow or weeder can then be used advantageous­ ly to break the crust unless the seeds have germinated, when much damage may result from harrowing. AVhen sown In rows the ordinary implements used In corn cultivation will be found satisfactory, as the culture of cow­ peas is essentially the ,same as for corn. About three cultivations at in­ tervals up to the time the blossoms appear wUl usually be sufficient. If the ground is veil cultivated and cleaned of weeds previous to sowing, broadcast sowings under favorable weather conditions grow rapidly and will smother any weeds which may start after sowing.

Many alfalfa growers are using the eight-foot cut with good success, and'm ake a practice of mow­ ing early In The morning before', the dew Is off, or "even during a light rain, Mower Is Important. It does W t pay to wait until the dew is off before starting the mower if the tedder is used to “kick" the water out of the hay. The size of. mower used and the time of day It Is started are the most important factors In crew ar­ rangement. The use of the tedder and rake are next In Importance, and these three Implements should be kept clear­ ly In mind when attem pting to solve the problem of how to make a small crew efficient. GOOD GRASS SOD-ON ORCHARD Trees Suffer From Lack of Moisture and There Is Temptation to Turn Stock in. W here there Is a good grass sod on the orchard, the trees not only suffeir loss of moisture, but there is a con­ stant temptation to turn stock into the srchard during rush times, or when the main pastures "are short.. This is always unsatisfactory, because the trees -are going to be damaged more or less, even though average ’precau­ tions are taken to protect them. ,If any stock a t all is given the run' of the orchard, poultry is the best, as being least injurious to the trees and fowls constantly enrich the soil In the elements ,particularly necessary for fruit production. But even then the advantage is very slight. INSURANCE AGAINST DROUGHT Well-Prepared Seed Bed Ms Recom­ mended and Early. Work Will ;; ' Increase the Yields. A well-prepared seed bed is Jgood ta- surance against drouth, and the best seed is none too good. A few cents or a dollar saved in the price of seed : often .,costs m any. dollars In-J reduced yield, The cost per acre does not dif­ fer, very greatly whether the yield be large or small. Work put In during the month of.April has -much to do with yields per. acre. Fruit Production Increased 1,000 Per Cent, Say Experts at Michigan Conference. Michigan and Ohio speakers at the annual convention of the Michigan Horticultural society agreed that fruit production can be increased greatly with the aid of fertilizers—sometimes to the extent of 1,000 per cent. Ex­ periments showed that without few tllizer each tree produced 60.1 pounds of apples; with the use of four pbunds of sulphate of ammonia per tree, the orchard averaged 233.6 pounds of apples per tree; with five pounds of nitrate of soda per tree, 209.2 pouhds of , frnlt; with ten pounds of acid phosphate per tree, 209.4 pounds of fruit, and with a complete fertilizer, consisting of four pounds of sulphate ammonia, five pounds of acid phos­ phate and three pounds of m uriate of potash per tree, 403 pounds of fruit per tree. The cost of apples per 100 pounds with four pounds of sulphate of ammonia per tree was 16.1 cents; with five pounds of nitrate of soda, 21.3 cents ; with' ten-pounds of acid phosphate, 16.8. cents, and with seven­ teen pounds of complete fertilizer 20.6 cents. GRASS AND WEEDS HARMFUL Noxious Plants Consume Enormous Amount of Moisture Nee'ded by Fruit Trees. Grasses and weeds are enormous consumers of soil moisture, to say nothing of available plant food. The moisture content of the soil plays an important part In fruit production, an all-importantipart In fact. Unless there is an abundance of moisture, the qual­ ity of the fruit Is certain to be affected, even though all other conditions - are favorable. Tliere are other reasons why the orchard soil should not be-ex­ pected to maintain an intercrop to any large extent. Weeds and grasses often afford a hiding place for orchard pests at ,certain seasons of the year. Some forms of diseases may be propagated on them, even though kept off the trees during a m ajority of the year, TEST CHARRED FENCE POSTS According to Iowa State College Fon .... esters Layer of Charcoal Is of Small Benefit. • Tests carried on-by Iowa State col­ lege foresters with fence posts that have been charred before placing them in the ground shows that these post’s do not last a great deal longer than those uncharred. Although Mhe char­ ring places a surface ,of charcoal on the post which is not pleasant for in­ sects to., penetrate,- the post is de­ stroyed and weakened so that the odfr come in the end is doubtful NEW RULING OF- LABOR BOARD WILL AFFECT 12,000 RAIL­ ROAD SIGNALMEN. OIIEBIiE W IS EU WIEO Time and One-Half Pay For Regular­ ly Assigned Work on Sundays and Holidays Also Eliminated. C h i c a g o .—Re-establishm ent of a ten hour day at the usual hourly wage and elimination of time and one-half pay for regularly assigned work on Sundhys and holidays, new rules gov erning railway signalmen, were an nounced by the United States railroad labor board to replace bn February 16 the national agreem ent m ade under federal control. The board’s rules affect more than -12,000 rail workers. According to fig­ ures based on interstate commerce -commission statistics, the annual la­ bor bill of the railroads will be cut about $300,000 by elim inating the over­ time pay provisions of the national agreement. : W hile the'new set of rules retains the principles of the eight-hour day, the door is open for a ten-hour day. Overtime pay is likewise elim inated for employes paid a m onthly salary by a new lorm ula for determ ining the . monthly rate, based on the standard hourly rate. Other minor provisions which will affect the signalmen’s pay envelopes are substitution of straight tim e for the former time and one half rule; pro­ vision for a minimum of three hours straight tim e instead of two hours at time and one-half for working less than four hors on Sunday, and com­ plete elimination of the old rule al­ lowing half pay from 10 o’clock at night to 6 a. m., for m en traveling on boarding cars. Other rules were changed to eltmi nate any fixed hour for starting work and any specified lunch period. The time lim it for investigations into dis­ charges, decisions and appeals was extended from seven to ten days. 300 Students Have Ptomaine Poison, ■ Columbus, Miss. — More than 300 students of' the M ississippi state col­ lege for women here are suffering with ptomaine poisoning as a result of eating chicken salad which was served at the evening m eal at the col lege. %. Every physician in Columbus was called to the institution and it is stated that all the students are out of danger, although a large number are still very ill. Dr. J. C. Fant, president of the in­ stitution. stated that the poisoning was undoubtedly caused by the salad, as those who did not eat it were nut affected. Dr. Irene Fatheree, the col­ lege physician, made th e ‘sam e state­ ment. A thorough investigation will be made by the college authorities, it was announced. Chicago Has Second “Ponzi.” Chicago.—Raymond J. Bischoff, ta­ ken into custody, after involuntary proceedings in bankruptcy had been instituted against him by creditors, adm itted that he owes'about $4,500,000, representing the savihgs of 6,000 Chi­ cagoans, mostly foreigners. Less than one million dollars worth of oil . and gas stock of doubtful value is available to m eet the obligations, It was an­ nounced. Bischoff, whose financial operations apparently rival those of Charles Pon­ zi, the Boston- “wizard,” expressed re­ lief when taken into cusody by deputy marshals. He had received threats from those he is alleged to have fleec­ ed, he said, and was afraid to venture into the south and w est side districts. To Reinstate Teachers. Dublin.—School teachers of Irish na­ tionality, who have been dismissed for political activities in recent years, will be reinstated by the Dail Eireann, the m inistry of education announces. In determining the status of such teach­ ers and the salary they are to receive, they, will be considered as having served continuously. Millions Starving In Russia.

Such a turmoil cannot but arrest .our atten­ tion, Indeed, it demands our careful, study and examination.

Rather, ask if their trouble Is nt| see what-can be done.to situation. Purely from unions, societies, farm bureaus, and so forth, for no sufficient cause. Investigation of the subject conclu­ sively proves that, while there is much overstatement of grievances and mis­ conception of remedies, the fanners are right in complaining of 'wrongs long endured, and right in holding that it is feasible to relieve their ills with benefit-to the rest of the community. .T h is being the case of an Industry Iliat contributes, In the' raw material form alone, about one-third of the na­ tional annual wealth production and is the means of Iiveliliood of about 49 per cent of the population', It.is ob­ vious that the subject is one of grave, concern. Not only, do the farmers make up one-li(ilf o f the nation, but the well-being of the other half de­ pends upon them. Bo long as we have nations, a wise politcinl economy will aim at a large degree 01' national self-sufficiency and seif-contalnment. Rome fell when the food supply was too Iar removed from the belly. _ Like her, we shall destroy, our own agriculture ..:’-il extend .our sources of food distantly and precari­ ously, If we do not see to 11 that our farmers are well and fairly paid for their services, Tiie farm gives the Ii-1O men .as well as food.

An uuuBital story of how it c^rife about that a North Carolinian - claims the government owes hiui $1,000,000 was carried in a recent issue Ot the Atlanta Journal. The claimant is Major J L. White, of Rowan couuty, North Carolina, a retired physician. To quote the Jouru al: “Ati elderly, dignified gentleman of what is popularly called the old southern type, with an indefinable hint of military bearing about him, walked into the. Journal editorial room 'Monday and exhibited a roughly circular sheet of hammered copper, with the following incrip tion: ., “ ‘As I came from the old comi- "" try I deposited $9,000 (nine thous­ and dollars) in the U. S. Treasury in Philadelphia in 1795. P donate this inouey to the finder of this Dlate as I am wounded and bound to die. • H. A. Barley.” " ‘I anr'tlie finder,’ announced the old gentleman, oraculary, tlier, • introducing lil.mself-as Mtijor J. L. White, of Rowan county, North Carolina: a retired physician, he said, and the youngest major in the Confederate army in the War Be­ tween the States. " ‘I crawled into a rock-bound cave to get out of a terrific rain- —storm,’ he went on, -‘and in it I found this copperjtjale. Tliis was in 1914. I naturally went to Phila­ delphia to the North America Bank - which took over the affairs of the United Slates treasury about'iSia, and the old record shown me, where Otie H. A. Barkey had deposited $9,000 in 1795. The president of the bauk told me that the accutnu Iatuted interest the original deposit now worth somethiug like $t ,0 0 0,- 0 00.’ " - “The banker, added Major Whitp advised him to put off.the business of collecting this very considerable amount of money, ‘owing to the un­ settled condition attending the be­ ginning of the world war.’ “ ‘I knew it mean, a lot- of red tape to be unraveled,’ said—Major White, ‘and I decided to wait. T sliotved the plate to William G. McAdoo1 then secretary of the treasury, and he said it was a per­ fectly good obligation against thr government. I have decided now to leave the plate and its cbligation to my three children. I have had it registered in Washington and in Philadelphia as my property, and only myself or my heirs can-collect the ampunt-it represents. I don’t need the money now; but it’s a com­ fortable feeling that Uncle Sam owes me or my heirs ,0 0 0,0 0 0.” ’ Criticism SndvNaggjq?. Constructive criticism is benefi cial to any community. Nagging and fault finding are destructive: . Yet both are to be found every­ where. Constructive c.itic’sm.poin s out the weak spots in a scheme-ror undertaking in a fair 'inindcd but forceful manner. Nagging picks it to p eces without reason or remedy. Often a nian is Sincerely desirous - of doing something for the gineral improvement of the town in which ke liv.es. The improvement he ad-' vocates may be of more benefit to him than to any other citizen, yet there is invariably someone ready .to impute a selfish or ulterior motive . 4d his.efforts' In 'time such a man, if-l^^piot: endowed with !Cxtoaer- dinary Patieucel becontes'weary of ■ repeated iiagging aud ceases his’ef; ..forts for Ihe community good. The . town gains nothing for this nagging ■, but loses tnuch through the future apathy of the one whose loyal ef­ forts were so unj ust attached; Ee- . gilfnjate commendation is a booster xand a builder. 'Nagging is a grave “ digger. Which is best for this com­ munity? ' I , f Big line tablets at Record office. Our Public SchooU And The Bible Popular education and Chnstidn-" i :y'have been contemporaneous and geographically co-terminous: In the first century the only system, of popular education in the Roman Empire was that which was organ­ ized in connection with the Jewish synagogues for the children ~of Jewish parents These schools fur nished both religious and . indus­ trial education. As.Christianity' extended- over Europe it created both a desire for knowledge and the schools to grat­ ify that desire. That we have to­ day any copies of the Bible, or of the Greek'and Eatfn classics is due to the monastic libraries and. the monastic copyists. Modern agri­ culture dates "from the experimen tal schools of the Benedictine monks. The first seeds of the English revolution were sown_by the deriiocratic teachings of the Franciscan friars in the towns and cities of -England. When ecclesi- asticism began to tyranize over e.lucatiou, then, and .not until then, democracy took the work of self- education into its own hands. > The public school took the place.of the parochial school. The questions that arise between-tliesfi two. are not questions of methods? merely. The parochial school aims to build mp out of obedient children a great church. The ptihlic school aims to make gi od citizens and out of these Sturdy1Citfzens to ..build up a great commonwealth. ■ Our public school will not again nestle under the rafters of one. ex­ clusive church; but it should not dishonorably forget its parentage. The supreme court of the state of Washington recently decided ’that uo'public school teacher should be alloSved to rea'd the Bible to the children in school, even without any sort of comment. ' It is to “be hoped that the.lGod fearing people of tliatotate will bring such digni­ fied but persistent pressure to !tear upon the members' of the courf that this decision will be revised.— Selected. - - "7. North .Caroliita has never been sp weak or so foolish as to forbid the readiug of the Bible in au yo f her public schools. It is true that our public schools have occasion­ ally been called “godless” by men iu high places, . who should have known better.- But the" truth is that a Cliristiancommonwealth will not tolerate a. godless public school system.

ITO nAUtl&i* t A nil GAto eradicate these inequalities, they are subjected, to stern economic lec­ tures, and are met with the accusation that they are-demanding, and are the recipients of, special prtyilegcs. Let us see what privileges the government has conferred on the farmers. Much has been made of -Section 6 of the Clayton Anti-Trust Act, which pur­ ported to permit them to combine with immunity, under certain- conditions. Admitting that, nominally, this ex­ emption was in the 'nature of-a special privilege,—though I -think it was so In appearance rather than -in ;fact,—we find that the courts have rvullified It by judicial interpretation. Why should - not the- farmers be permitted to ac­ complish by co-operative methods what other businesses are already 'doing by - ea.-operation lit the form of Incorpora­ tion ? If it be proper-for men to form, by fusion of existing corporations or otherwise, a corporation; that; controls the entire production of a commodity, or a large, part of it. why Iis1-It not proper for a group of-farmers, to unite for the marketing of their f common "products, either In one or In, several selling agencies^ Why should "it he right for a hundred thousand corporate shareholders to direct 25 or 30 ,or 40 per cent of an industry, and wrong for a hundred thousand co-operative farmers to control a no larger propor­ tion of the wheat crop, or cotton, or. any other product! "The Department of AgrlcultureJs often spoken of as a spech I concession ■ to the farmers, but in ifs commercial, results, it" is of as. much I, aofit.to the buyers and eousdmprs Cf iigricultural; products as to the producers, or event more! -1 do not suppose!-tlnit anyone, opposes the be.nefits'Siatr the farmers derive fro m -t^iedncational- and re­ search, work hf?tWe department, or the - lielp' thnt'jrglyes them in WorkingiOUt improved cultural methods and prac­ tices, Iu developing better yielding va­ rieties .through-breeding and selection. In introducing new. varieties.from re­ mote parts of Uig world ■ arid adapting ■ them to our climate and economic con­ dition. arid In devising practical meas­ ures for the elimination or control of dangerous and destructive animal and plant -diseases, insect pests, and the like. All these tilings manifestly tend to stimulate and enlarge production, and their general beneficial effects are obvious. . -- It .is complained" that, whereas the law restricts Federal Reserve banks;, to three months’ -time for commercial paper, 'th.e' farmer is allowed "Six months on his notes. This is not a special privilege, but merely such a recognition of business conditions as: makes it possible for country banks to do business with country people. The crop farmer has-ODly-one turn­ over a year, while the merchant and ” manufacturer- have many. Incidental­ ly, I-Jiote tiiat (he Federal Reserve- Board has Just authorised HierFed- eral Reserve banks to discount export paper for a period uf six-months, to conform to" the uature of the busi­ ness. - The Farm Isian banks are pointed; to as an instance of special govern-' ment favor for farmers. Arc they .not rather the outcome .of. Iaiidable efforts, to equalize-rural and urban -condi­ tions? And about all 'tlie goyernmbnl does there Is to help'set up an .ad­ ministrative'organization and , lend a little credit at the start. Eventually, the farmers will provide all the capi­ tal and carry all the liabilities them­ selves. It is true' that Farm Loan ■ bonds are tax exempt; but so are bonds of municipal light and traction plants, and new housing' is to be ex­ empt from taxation/ In Newf'Iork^ for ten years. • Oti the other hand, the farmer reads: - of plans for municipal Jiousing proj­ ects that run,lnto the billions, of han-. - dreds of millions annually spent on the ’merchant marine; he reads that the railways are being, favored-with increased" rates and virtual gqTrantles of earnings by the goverpmefit,' with the restflt to him of an 'ncreased. toll on ail that hesells and all-that he buys. He hears of many manifesta­ tions of governmental concern for par ticular industries arid interests. Res­ cuing "the railways from insolvency'is •undoubtedly for,-the benefit of the country as a whole, but what -can be of more general benefit than, encour­ agement or ample production of the principal necessaries oit life"arid, their- even flow from contented producers to sntisfled consumers'’ • , ,.! "'V '"'/1-/. - _\Vhlle It may be conceded that ' special governmental aid jnay'be nec­ essary In the gepmM'Jj}.terest, we-must ’ .all M reeJI^t i£^i^ifiicult;to;see why- agriculture Iind-Hie-Productlon arid dis­ tribution, of farm, products are not ac­ corded the sanie opportunities .that are- provided for other businesses; espe- -ClaIV a i the enjoyment by the. farmer . of such opportunltles -.woiiiarappear to be even more contributory totliegen- . • era! good than Ia the case, of other T'. Industries. ~TIie spirit of-Zmerican democracy is- unalterably opposed, ______ J .. alike to enacted special privilege' and:! tiusine^es ffgift ' .to the special privilege of-unequal, op; '' " fat as it is w.itbin-Us power to do so, whether by the repeal. of. arcbalc- statutes or the enactment of. moderri ones. If the anti-trust laws, keep the farmers from, endeavoring scientifically to integrate their industry while other; industries find a way to meet modern- conditions'wiihout violating such stat­ utes. then it would seem reasonable to find a-way for the farmers to meet them under the same Conditions. The' law should Wperuie equally in foot. Re­ pairing the economic structure, on one side is no Injustice- to the_other side, which, is In good repair.' " . - We hove traveled a long way from U>e old conception, of government as merely a defensive and policing agency.; and regulative, coi-rective, or equaliz­ ing legislation, which apparently is -of a'.special nattire,-ls often of-the most general beneficial consequences. Even Jhe First Congress passed a tariff .act that was avowedly for the protection of manufacturers; but a protective -!. tariff always has been defended a.s a means of promoUng the general good through a particular approach; - and the statute books are-filled with acts for. the benefit of shipping, commerce.-, and labor. or care-very, much: ■■ wliat: the World7Vvns doing.

Without" trying, to catalogue the re medial measures that have been sug­ gested hr his behalf, the principal pro­ posals-that .bear directly on the im­ provement Of bis distributing and mar­ keting relations may be summarized as follows:— " F-irst: storage warehouses for cot-' ton, wool, and tobacco, -SDd. elevators for grain, of sufficient capacity to meet the maximum detnand on tlienr-at the peak of the marketing period. ; The" farmer thinks that either private capi­ tal must furnish tb.ese.JacillUes, or the state must- erect and. own the eleva­ tors and warehouses. Second: weighing and grading of agricultural products, and certification thereof, to be done by Impartial and disinterested public Inspectors (this is already accomplished -to some- extent by the federal licensing of weighers and graders), to ellmlnate uriderpay- Ing1 overcharging, and nnfalr grading, and to facilitate the utilization of the stored products as tbe basis of.credit. i Third: a certainty of credit sufficient to enable the marketing of products in an orderly tnanner. F o u rth tlie Department" of Agricul­ ture should collect, tabulate, summa­ rize, and regularly and frequently pub­ lish and distribute to the farmers,-full information from all the .markets" of the world, so that they shall be: as well- Informed of their selling position as buyers now are of their buying posi­ tion: . .' Fifth: freedbro to integrate the busi­ ness of1 agriculture by means of con­ solidated seHipg agencies, co-ordinat­ ing and coroperating In such way as to__ put the .fanner on an equal footing with the large buyers.of his products, and with commercial relations In other industries? ' & _ When a-business requires specialized talent, it has to buy it. So will -the farmers; and perhaps the best way.for them to get it would be to uttltze'.some of tiie present machinery of the larg­ est established agencies dealing- in farm products. Of roiirSe,.if he wishes; the farmer may go further, and engage •.in flour-nulling and other: manufactures-! of. food products. . I n iriy opinion, however, he would be ..wise to "stop . short- of that Public interest may be: . opposed "to .all great integrations; but. in justice, should they be-forbldden to the- farmer and permitted to others? The corporate form of association can­ not now be wholly adapted to his ob­ jects and conditions.? The looser^,co­ operative form seems more generally suitable. Thereforprr he wislies to be frfee, if . he finds it. desirable and Teas- ibjej to resort to co-operation wlth hls fellows arid neighbors, without "run-, ning afoul ,of-the law. To urge 'that- the farmers should'have the same lib­ erty to "Consolidate Vand co-ordinate their- peculiar economic functions, which other Industries In their fields enjoy, Is ript, however, to-concede that any business IritegratIori vShbuid have legislative sanction to exercise monop­ olistic 'power. -The Americpnk people are as'flrmly opposed to industrial as to . political autocracy, whether' at­ tempted byi-rural- Or by.urburi industry,: For lack-of united effort the farmers as- a whole. are still marketing Tthelr croprby'arttIqnattm: methods; j>r by no methods at jail, but they are surronnded by a business . world ‘that has." begn modernized -to the last1 mi^fte and Is_ ,tirelessly.stftving for ....jj, j . efficiency is due In large' mea'snbe to big business, to:unlted.buslness, to In tegrated business...

They pre far from get­ ting a fair share now: Considering his capital and the long hours of labor put In-by the average former and his family, he is remunerated1 less than any other occupational class, with tlie possible exception of teachers, relt- glotis arid.lay. Though we know that !the present general distress of the farmers is exceptional and Is linked with the inevitable economic readjust­ ment following the war, -it^must lie remembered that, although ,represent­ ing one-third, of the industrial product' and half the total population of the nation, the rural communities ordi- 'nariiy enjoy but a-fifth to a quarter of the net .annual national gain. Notwith­ standing the taste of prosperity that the fanners had during the war, there is !today a lower standard of living among tlie cottori farmers of tlie Soiitli than in any other pursuit In the country. _ -In conclusion, it seems to me'that the farmers are chiefly striving for a gen­ erally. beneficial Integration of their business, of the saifie kind and charac­ ter thitt otlier business enjoys.
