C.-, died a few days ago leaving behind a belt taken from around her waist that contained $2,224 *n bills and gold. Neighbors thought that Mrs. Mc- Abee was penniless. She lived on a farm and wore barely enough clothes to . cover • her body. She died fiom paralysis, and when her body was prepared for burial the money was found. She had sever­ al pouches attached to-the belt, and in the pounches were.small pocket- books and purses’in which differ­ ent amounts of money were secure­ ly tied. In some cases the metaj on the purses haid decayed and the bills had been folded so long that they, were practically worn thru where creased. Some of the money, it is’believd. had been in the belt for 35 years. It is said Mrs. McAbee accumu­ lated the money picking black-ber ries, grubbing fields, clearing briar patches and , peddling the little vegetables she could get out of the garden. She made her trips regu­ larly to Spartanburg, driving ah old mule. The money will be divided among her children. Why He Quit. A janitor of a new school threw up his job the other day. When asked the trouble he said: I'm honest and I won’t stand be­ ing slurred, I find a handkerchief about the school when I ’m sweep­ ing, I band or put it up. Every little while the teacher or some one that is too cowardly to face me will give me a slur. A little while ago I seen wrote on the. board, ‘Find the Ieas1I common multiple.’ Well, I looked from celler to garret for that thing and wouldn’t, know the thing if I met it on the street. Last night, in big writing on the black­ board, it said, ‘Find the greatest common divisor.’ ‘Well’ Isays to fyself, ‘both of them things are lost now, and I ’ll be accused of taking them, so I ’ll quit.’ ” The Call For A Man. W anted: A man who can find things to be done without the help of a manager a,nd three assistants. A man who gets to work on time in the morning ahd does' not im­ peril their lives of others in an at­ tempt to be the first to quit work at night. A man who is peat in appearance and does not sulk for an hour’s over time in emergencies. A man who listens carefully when he is spoken to and asks only en­ ough questions to insure the ac­ curate carry out of instructions. A man who moves quickly and makes as little noise as possible a- bout it. A man who looks you straight in the eye and tells the truth every time. A m an who does not pity him-r self for having to. work. A man who is cheerful, cour­ teous to everyone and determined to “ make.good:” • A man who, when he does not know, says, “ I don’t know,” and when he is asked to do. anything says, * T II.try. iiW A thensTost..

Wilkes Teachers Most Not Smoke. ’ Flapperism and sbiekdom it seems have invaded the “State of Wilkes” and some of the teachers in the public schools have so far forgot their dignity as to become cigarette fiends. The following notice which ex­ plains itself appeared in the last issue of the Wilkes Journal. “ To Whon It May Concern: It having come to the knowledge of the board that some teachers, both ladies and gentleman, have been smoking cigarettes, it is the order of the board that in case such practice does not cease immediatly such teachers will be asked to re­ sign. This order made this the 2nd day of February, 1926 C. C. W RIGHT, Secretary Board of Education” , W hether the young women will give up the cigarette or the school has not been learned.—Ex. How Times Do Change. (From the Gastonia Gazette) Bobbed hair is a sign of the tim­ es. Twenty years ago in was a sign of typhoid fever. Then grandmother - grew old gracefully. Now she grows young PePpiIy- But manners are no worse than formerly. They only change to keep pace with our changing needs. Manners are the outward manifes­ tation of our sense of obligation to­ ward eacn other. And our sense of obligation is continually changing. Times have changed since 1906, and of course manners have chang­ ed also. Formerly a young man'proposed to a young lady on his knees. He still does. Only then he was on them. Now she is. • . • . The young man used to ask fa­ ther’s permission to sit in the par­ lor with his lady love Now it is father who asks permission to sit there a little longer and listen the radio. Our point of view is more free today. Give me my liberty, cries the flapper, or give me freud. The flapper at her necking party does not get into any more trouble than her mother did, because she has learned at an early age what it is all about and how to take care of herself. It is curious that most of the out­ cry against present-day manners and customs should come from men Paid The Teacher $3.50 Per Week A town in the Middle West pay­ ing its primary teachers $3.50 a week wrote in its school (report, “ The Board as a general rule have determined to employ no teachers in the school but those of ripe age, ample experience, successful tact, a .find education, and 'au ample fund of general knowledge. Be­ sides these, the teacher must have great goodness , and kindness of heart, indomitable perseverance good common sense, and last, but not least, the qualities, in a meas­ ure, of a successful ,military gen­ eral." Certainly this Board in 1857 was very modest in the list of required graces for such salaries. Aulo Averages Killing One a Day in This State. According to the statistics' issued by the State board of health there were 111 violent deaths in North Caralina ,during January, aucomo- .bile fatalities averaging.opea day. Automobile accident fatalities slumped from 45 In December to 30 in January. Deaths as the result of burns decreased from '38 to 23;' ,rail­ road accident deaths from .9 to 7; homicidesfrom.22 to’16; grade cross­ ing fataiitiei from 5 to 4 ; accidental gunshot wounds of a doubtful na­ ture from 12 to 6. Suicides increas­ ed from 10 to 12 and • accldential drowning from I to 2. When Business Is Dnll. A representative.of one of the largest clothing manufacturers in the country recently said: "A s I am in sales • promotion work, of course I have, a good deal to do along advertising lines. I am finding out more every day that small merchants . are learning that the so-called off-seasons are the citizens to advertise, instead of only when business is good. Time was when merchants allowed their advertising and other sales promo­ tion talk so lag in summer months or any other time that business was ‘dull.’ But they are beginning to learn that it is the mission of advertising to certain sales, and for that reason it is most valuable when ‘business is dull.” Go after the business when it seems slack; don’t wait for it to come to you. That is the the theme of the big successful business men, and it should be the policy of the small town business man who really is af­ forded a business opportunity to make an appealing and personal sales talk through his newspaper them the city merchant. It’s worth paying, and if you give the plan half a chance your cash register will ring oftener in dull periods’ than if you don’t advertise 'because business is bad. ’ ’—Ex. Negroes Join Bird Gang When They Mebt KIuckers. The Cleveland Star tells of an a- musing occurrence that ocurred in that county a few days ago when a car loaded with negroes met a bunch of kluckers and at the sight of the white-rpbed figures the darkeys fled in every direction; - ' / Five cars loaded with the Ku Kliix Klan left Shelby Sunday afternoon bound for Boiling Sp'rings, on an er­ rand of mercy. Half way to the place’ the procession came to a narrow strip of roadway, thru which an automobile loaded with negroes was trave^g to the east. The driverof thp car, catching sight of . the white robed figures in the procession a head of him, threw up his hands and yelled bloody murder, and the cars careened in a ditch. As the car hit the mud and stailed an aged negro woman jumped out of the back seat, ahd exclaimed "Lord a’ Mercy!’’ started south across the adjacement field. One of the de­ legation that witnessed the spirit, told the Star that for all he knows the old soul is running yet. The Klan delegation visited a home in Boiling Springs in which the head of the household is serving time in the pen. They carried food and clothing to receive the stressof want reported to be acute in the house­ hold. The big company, fully robed, filed into the living room of the little home, and as half a dozen wide-eyed children looked on agape from the corners and crocks of doors, Profes­ sor Hamrick. of the Boiling Springs school, addressed the Klan members and thanked them for the contribu­ tion. The visitor remained incognito, not a member removing his helmet. . Expecting Too Much. Small town hotels have been the objects of criticism, ridicule and sneers on the p art. of the guests from time immemorial. But pro­ bably most of them are furnishing the just accommodations they can under the circumstances. “ Travelers who are accustomed to modern conveniences and com forts in larger hotels probably ex­ pect too much when they strike a villiage hotels A sarem inderof this fact, one country town hotelkeeper placed signs in his rooms, which read as follows. This ain’t the Waldorf-Astoria— if it was it would’t be here—You ain’t J. P. Morgan—If you was you wouldn’t be here—We know this Hotel is on the bum—Well, how about yourself."—Ex.

Parents of Negro in Tadkin Found Yadkinville, Feb. 25—Onceupon a midnight dreary, there pondered, weak and weary, thru the streets of Yadkinville, a harmless, speech­ less, nameless negro, who knew not from when he came nor whither he was going. ,It was in bleak December, 1924, 14 months ago, when all humanity was prepariug to celebrate the Christmas holidays, that this dumb piece of hmnanity dropped in the streets of Yadkinville, with no trace behind him. Iudulgetit souls that are always to be found in Yadkin­ ville when help is needed, regard­ less of rase, color, polities or reli­ gion, stopped iu their mad. rush for joy to help this helpless victim of paralysis and wandering mania to identify himself. He was simply standing here aud there, cold, hun­ gry, and without winter clothes. The only thing he could ever tell anybody was that he was on his wav to “Jiui Smiths” and there be­ ing no “Jim Smith” in this section this information was no good. The unfortunate negro, apparently 22 years old, was cared for a few days and then taken to the county home wheJe he has remained ever since, and all efforts to locate his people were made, altho he was black, dirty and ragged, he was some­ body’s boy. and no man high or low everdescendedto his circum­ stances by his own will, but by mistake or misfortune. Last week a Yadkinvillebusiness man was in Mocksville, and pass­ ing thru an alley he saw an aged colored couple, eagerly devouring a lunch, while their ' ’'critter” was munching his fodder. The Yad­ kinville man chanced to ask them where he could find a cook, and disclosed where he lived. Instant­ ly four eyes brightened and the old mammy negro said she had a lost boy and the last she heard of him he was seen in or near Yadkinville, but she was unable to hunt for him. A few passenges and it was certain­ ly her boy, lost 14 months. Her name was Lena Grifeth and the boy’s name was Cornelius Griffith. They had lived in Georgia until a few years back and before the boys affliction came upon him he work­ ed for a Jim Smith, hence he was going back to see him. Tne family will be united in a few days, and mother and boy will, be restored to each other.

Robert Ormerod, who tells the tale, is talking to Peter Corlaert chief of the trad­ers, and V man • of enormous strength, when Darby McGraw, 'Irish bonded boy, brings news that a pirate ship is "off 1he Hook." An old sea captain an­nounces he has been chased by the notorious pirate, Captain Rip-Rap- The older Ormerod tells Robert the pirate Is Andrew Murray, his (Robert’s) great- uncle, commanding the pirate ship, the Royal James. Murray is an ardent Jacobite. N ejt day Robert and Darby encounter a one-legged sailor, John Silver. Robert meets a young woman from a Spanish frigate who Is seeking her father, Colonel O'Donnell. Jtfurray with a force of sailors visits the Ormerod house. He announces his inten­tion of carrying off Robert, by force, If necessary, promising him a great future. Robert, meets a blind sailor, PeW. The fellow’s blindness ^ apparently troubles him little, but Robert Instinctive­ly dislikes and fears him. CHAPTER VI— Continued “Nor will you, Nephew Hobert. No, my problems are connected ,with the difficult task of attaining an imaginary spot In this trackless waste and puz­zlement as to whether I have correctly estimated an equation of human val­ues. Ton are not, perhaps, mathe­matical? Ah, too bad! There is no mental exercise so Testful and divert­ing to the mind as algebra. But fig­ ures lack the warm interest of human equations. As, for instance, the exact degree of trust to be imposed in un­ trustworthy persons,”“Sail ho!” shouted the lookout ..In the main crosstrees.Murray’s calm face flushed with sud­den emotion, and he took a step for­ ward."Where does she lie?” he trumpeted through his clasped hands.“Maybe one, two points t9 larboard, sir.”“Can you make her out?”"Only tops’ls, sir; big ’uns.” tlLet me know as soon as you make her,” said Murray, and turned back to me. *But almost at once the other look­out in the foretop sang out—“Second sail to larboard, sir, cornin’ up arter t’other chap!”Murray rubbed his hands together with every evidence of -'Satisfaction. “Ah!” he exclaimed. “It appears that my estimation of the safe degree of trust to be imposed In the given situation was within the bounds of ac­curacy.”“I don’t understand you.”“No? In plain English let us say then that my own vessel and consort are meeting me according to plan.” “Why do you speak- of trust?” I challenged. “Cannot you trust your own people?” _ ■“I trust nobody farther than I must,” he retorted.And without another word h^^pro- duced a patent folding spyglass from his pocket and clapped it to his eye. Silver, who* had been. an Interested witness to the scene: from his aerie atop of the cabin skylight, hopped across the deck to. my great-uncle’s: side. i ’“Beggln’ your pardon, captain,” he said, “But I’d make oath that tops’l is the canvas you took out o’ the mo­gul’s ship off Pondicherry. Mind it, sir? 'Twas uncommon bleached and looked whiter’n our cloth,”Murray handed him the glass.“Stop me, Silver, but I believe you are right,” he returned. “What a hawk's eye you must have! Here, see what you can make of it with this.” Long John peered through the glass, steadying his crutch against the butt of the tnizzen.“Aye, ’tis—”“R’yal James to leeward!” hailed the foretop. And the main crosstrees echoed, not to be outdone— “Walrus cornin’ up astarp o’ her!” “ ’Tis they, never a doubt,” assented Silver as he lowered the glass. “Dig- gin’ into it they are, too, and a lusty show o’ canvas to both o’ them. If you was to ask me now, captain, I’d say Flint isn’t willing to plow your wake.”My great-uncle indulged in a pinch of snuff,- a mildly cynical smile upon his handsome features.“I thank you,” he acknowledged. “And now I would have the men tum­ble up their gear from below and make ready the boats. I shall also leave It to you, Silver, to lay the -powder-train. How much have you?” "Three casks, sir.”“Excellent. But allow us ample time to pet free.”“Why- do yon give your orders to Sifter arid not to Bones?” I .inquired curiously nfter- the one-legged man had gone for’ard.My great-uncle lowered his glass with a benevolent smile.“I rejoice tp perceive that you have an obsefvant tendency,” he com­mented. “Why do I single out Silver for orders? Ah! The reasons are qi'te ob' -ous. To begin with, he is r.b.ed with a personality which en- sb'es him to secure the accomplish­ment of tasks; but perhaps as impor­tant asNhat consideration is the par- al.el fact that- it lies to my interest to develop the seed of' dissension in the Walrus’ crew. Their future con­tains infinite possibilities. Who knows what. trifling factor may influence the dictates of fate? I am. you may say, In a minority of one among ■ some hundreds ai headstrong, ■ willful. In- B y A rth o r D . H ow den S m itb Copyright by Arthnr D. Bowden Smith , > WNU Service temperate men. United, they would crush me like a fly on the wall. Di­vided, and keptwdivided, they are so many Instruments for the fulfilling of my desires, JiPblt until we are aboard the Boyai James, Robert. Then you will realize what I offer yon.”“I have heard much of it already,” I agreed dryly.- "Anon you shall hear all,” he an­swered. "Let us get Flint across-table from us. In the James’ state cabin with a beaker of rum at his elbow. Then you shall hear me talk;” Bone6 came up to speak to blip; and I rejoined Peter, who waB glumly watching the unlashing of the small boats and the rigging of the falls by which they were slung overside.As Murray nodded dismissal to Bones, Silver left us and hopped up to him.“All set and ready below, captain,” he announced. My great-unde cast his eye at the approaching ships, now so near that we could make out quite distinctly the contour of their hulls, painted yellow, with a white band delimiting the ports, man-o’-war fashion. The James was already beginning to, take in some of her top canvas.- “Very good, Silver,” he answered. “Master Bones! Tou will bringSthe ship to and put over the boats.” There was a ‘great flapping and banging as the brig rounded to, and witii much yo-ho-hoing the boats were lowered into the water. ' ‘ “You will go off first, Master Bones,” ordered Murray. Kindly present my compliments to Captain Flint and say that I should like to have a word with him aboard the James at his early con­venience.” Bones sullenly touched his cqp and led better than half the crew Into one of the two longboats the brig had car­ded. Murray nodded to Silver as they cast off. “Start your train,” he said shortly. “Nephew Robert, I wish you and Peter to go into the second boat At once, Peter and I climbed clumsily down the ladder of cleats nailed to the brig’s hull and dropped into the bobbing longboat. Peter groaned as we crawled over the thwarts. “Like der waves is my stomach— oop—andt down. Now I be sick, ja!”And he was. Presently Murray descended the brig’s side with an agility which put me to shame and took his seat In the stern sheets. Darby swarmed down like a monkey and ensconced himself beside us in the bow. Silver was slnng over in the bight of a rope, and the last of the crew tumbled over after him, one upon the other’s heels. Oars were thrust out, and we pulled rapidly toward the Royal James, wallowing in the trough of. the sea, a cjharter-mlle away. The Walrus, foaming up under a cloud of canvas, was almost as near, and on our weather board. ,Boom! The roar of an explosion behind us ,was as sharp as the smack of an open hand. I turned my head. So did the others. Murray was look­ing back, too, and the rowers rested on their oars.A cdoud of smoke jetted up from the brig’s hatches. She heeled over to starboard as we watched, gave a “I Trust Nobody Further Than I Must,’! He Retorted. quivering lurch and . commenced to slide under by the" head. We icould hear the slap of the sails as they struck the waves. In two minutes she was gone. “That was well-contrived, Silver,” remarked my great-uncle. “ ’Sdeath, but you are a man of parts. Give way, lads!” -"- He nodded the -length Cf. the boat to me. “I trust you perceiv^ the significance of that. Nephew Robert. A certain young man, we will say, disappears from New York. A certain'biflfTfii- appears simultaneously. Some might go so far as Jo associate the two dis­appearances. Frigates put to.sea in search of a certain brig—J>ut-the brig is no more.” The men at the'bars laughed loudly, and I made no answer. Wliat could I say? I felt verv-hopeless."The. bulwarks of the James - were - / lined with heads and faces as we, pulled under her counter and inade fast, and even at that distance the complexity of her crew was apparent. I saw Portuguese, Finns, Scandinavi­ans, French and English cheek by jowl with negroes. Moors, Indians and slant-eyed yellow men. But what im­ pressed me the most was the absolute silence which greeted us, a silence all- ,the more impressive because' the wind carried to our ears the bedlam of shouts, cheers, oaths and imprecations with which the Walrus was receiving Bones’ boat several hundred yards away.Murray waved me to the ladder as he set foot on the first cleat. / “Up with you,'NephewPeter also. The-rest gq to-the Walrus.”Darby snatched at my hand as I rose.“Whirra, whlrra, but there’s an ache in my heart to be parted from ye, Master Bob I” he cried. “And if we was to be pirates it do seem we might be together on the same ship!”He made to follow me, indeed, but Silver pulled him back.“You stays wi’ us. Darby,”’ growled the one-legged man. “Blast ye, lad, you’re our good luck. Flint’ll douse the ship in rum after one look at ye.” "We’ll meet again, Darby,”. I said. "Never you fear.”He was still jabbering In a mixture of grief and joy when I climbed over the bulwark and dropped, beside my great-uncle into the midst of another world.Fore and aft from poop to fo’csle stretched the wide deck from which the lofty spars rose like forest giants. The1 massive bulwarks were shoulder- high, and inboard everything was painted red exactly as in a king’s ship. The hundreds of umen who had watched us from the bulwarks had all sifted for’ard. We stood in the mldsf of an open space, with only three others. One of these three was a very small old man with wispy gray hair and deeply bronzed face, from which his eyes peered intensely blue and child­ishly simple. He had gold rings in his ears, and his dress was neat and plain.“My sarvice, Captain1ltvIie greeted Murray. “Ship’s in order, I hope. •---- my eyes if we’ve had so much as a o’ genuine wind since the ----hussy • bore away from ye off the Hook.” .The effect of the unspeakable blas­phemies which poured with mild, in­tonation from his lips vvas ridiculous, but nobody appeared to notice it, and I learned afterward that his habit of swearing by the anatomy of the twelve apostles and various saints and sacred figures , was the quaintest .of several quaint characteristics of an unusual personality.“We won’t complain about that, Master Martin,” replied my great- uncle. “I have brought back my grand- nephew to be the mainstay of my old age. Here he Is—Master Ormerod, Martin. Ah, and this is * friend of his and an old enemy of mine, Peter Corlaer.” as Peter rolled over the top of the bulwarks. “He is more to- be reckoned with than you might sup­pose, is Peter.“Master Martin, Nephew Robert,'is my mate, and as such, my ,right hand and arm.”Martin stepped back, and the second of the three men confronting us touched his cap. This was a square, heavy-built fellow with a dour glint to his eye, who wore a decent blue cloth coat and small clothes.“And here Is Saunders, Master Martin’s second,” continued my great- uncle. "A Scot like myself. My nephew should make a fine Scotsman; eli, Saunders?”“He’s a braw-lookin’ laddie In seemin’,” Saunders agreed cautiously.“Your meaning is that we must prove him?” responded Murray. “Quite true. We shall. Hola, Cou- peau!”And he rattled into a string of French which I could not follow as the third man met him with a bow and a scrape of one foot. Coupeau was as brutal in Ioolps and^manner as Black Dog or Bill Bones, but without the sinister implications of speech and ac­tion that made me shudder whenever the blind man Pevv approached me or spoke in my hearing. He had been branded on the cheek, and an attempt to obliterate the brand—or perhaps ’twas the superimposed, scar of -a wound—had made that side of his face a very 'nightmare. His -waists and forearms showed gouges 'that wound upward like snakes and suggested what other torments his gaudy cloth­ing concealed. -- ;-“Coupeau,” remarked my . great- uncle,. turning again to me, Ts our gunner. I saved, him from the French galleys, and he sIs not without devo­tion ,Jipged by self-interest which is to be preferred above all."And now we will go aft-and pre­pare to receive Captain Flint.”Murray led us' to a door in the break of- the poop which was opened for us by a stalwart black In a red livery coat, who ushered , us along a compan­ionway lined- Wlth- stateroom doors into a spacious state cabin stretching the width of the stem. The walls were paneled -in mahogany ; silver sconces were fastened at intervals, and a wondrous luster chandelier was pendant from the celling, itself uncom­monly Ioftv for shipboard; several paintings iif the French school -hung at the sides; and there were trophies of peculiar arms and armor. Under­foot were Ens*«rn rugs, thick-piled and soft of hue.My great-uncle surveyed this mag­ nificence with pardonable pride- 'Twas evident it n«aBt something tohtm ■ '’Diomede," he said to the negro, "where Is Master Gunn?,’A high, piping voice answered him from the companionway. “Coming, worshipful sir. Ben Gunn’s a-coming. I jest stopped by the galley to fetch up your chocolate.’!. The man who followed the’ voice trotted in bearing a silver pitcher of steaming chocolate, Murray’s favorite drink; aye, and food. He was a slen­der fellow, with a simple, open face, clad in plain black as became an up­per servant. He stopped dead at sight of US5 - •“Set your tray on the table, Gunn, Instructed ray great-uncle. This is my grandnephew, Master Ormerod, and his friend, Master Corlaer. They are to sail with us a while.”Gunn pulled his forelock and ducked. “Sarvant, gentlemen,” he acknowl­edged. “Alius glad to please, is Ben Gunn. Bound to oblige ye, gentlemen. You Jest name your drinks, and I’ll fetch ’em up from the wlne-bins.” “Food as well, Gunn,” said Murray. “Aiid Captain Flint Is coming aboard.” Ben Gunn cocked his head one side. “That means rum,” he commented. "Plenty o’ rum, says you. Jest leave, it to Bep, captain." He ducked and scraped again and skipped off into the companionway with a kind of wiggle like a self- conscious child.“My steward,” remarked my rela­ tive.”‘The man Is a half-wit, Is he not?” I asked.“A natural, yes,” assented Murray, tasting the chocolate."I should think It would be danger­ ous to have one so simple in such close proximity to you.”My great-uncle smiled.“You are quite, quite wrong, my boy. It is for the very reason that the man is incapable of spying that I use him. He is more valuable for my purposes than the mOst intelligent member of the crew.”He broke off.“This chocolate is by no means so well brewed as Silver's. An extraor­dinary fellow, that, monstrously clever —exactly the sort of man, Robert, I never permit to remain near me. In­deed, if you possess the patience and the interest to analyze the composition of my officers and crew you will ob­serve, I believe, that there is not an independently clever man amongst them. Aye, and if you find nre a clever man aboard the Royal James— yourself and friend Peter excepted, of course— I will thank you to point him out • to me, and I will straightway ipake a present of him to Flint, who must have half a dozen of the Walrus’ crew who esteem themselves equally capable with him of commanding her. <t*I am not—by necessity I am not— regarded with affection by my follow­ers. And on the whole, I think I have gotten along better .by means of fear than I might have by means of gffec- tion. Fear is a natural element ,in a pirate's career. What place has he in his life for affections? Hark! Db I hear something?”He did beyond question—an uproar of curses and shouts upon thw deck outside. “It is only that Captain Flint has come aboard. Pray take your seats. I promise you an interesting episode.” The door to the deck banged open, and a harsh, domineering voice bel­lowed In the companionway.“ me, Martinv.what the——------------— d’ye think ye are?

I’ll talk to your master!” ,Siam went the door, and a mutter of curses rambled from the companion- way, preceding a tall, blue-jowled-m'im in a flaming red coat all cobwebbefl over with gold lace. He halted in the cabin entrauce, bands on his hips, feet planted wide, close-set green eyes flickering balefully on either side of a long nose that seemed to poke out from ~a tangle of lank, black hair.“Back,< eh, Murray?” he snarled. “Two men the richer for your effort Gut me, ’twas a fool’s errand!” —J “Pardon me,” objected Murray, “but I am' considerably more than ‘two men the richer’ in consequence of my run ashore—although I would not appear by these words to, deprecate the im­portance to be attached to the acquisi­tion of my grandnepljew and Master Corlaer. Permit me, Captain Flint! Master Ormerod, my grandnephew, and Peter Corlaer.” Flint scowled at’us, flinging himself into a chair at the opposite end of the table from my great-uncle.“A youth and.a fat man!” he ejacu­lated. “And unwilling at that, so Bones tells ine.”\“piaster Bones was correct in that statement,” my 'great-uncle assented cheerfully; "but I fancy he neglected to add that tht'fat man’ took his knife away from him and must have hanged him had I not intervened.”An appreciable degree of respect' dawned In Flint’s eyes.“He is no butter-tub if he bested Bill,” conceded the Walrus’ captain. “Curse me„ though, If I-see why yon should add a cub to your crew.”“Tut, tut, captain,” remonstrated Murray. ‘"A cub!’ Thiidr again. The boy is my heir.”“All bell fall heir to Will be the rope that hung yon,” returned Flint. “But I’ll own I did yon wrong when I accused you of being'but two men the better by your shore expedition. I was forgetting the red-headed mac cot John Silver fetched aboard. 'Tin the first promise o' luck we ha’-bad!” My uncle took snuff with much deli­cacy and rang a silver bell In front of him.“Gunn is late with the liquor. I must ask your indulgence, captain, for compelling you to talk dry." Ben Gunn bustled into the cabin and deposited a trayful of decanters, bot­tles and flasks before us. Captain' Flint, without awaiting an Invitation, seized upon an earthern receptacle la­beled. “Gedney’s Jamaican Rum;’” pried out the cork with the point of a knife, tilted it to bis mouth and drained a mighty dram. TIien he set it down beside him,: wiped his mouth on his coat-cuff and cleared his throat rpushed a cut-glass carafe of watel toward him, supposing he would wist- “To Whom Do You Owe Your Present Position?” He Asked Celdly. some dilution, and he laughed jar ringly. "You ha’ much to learn, my lad,” he Jeered. “We don’t spoil good rum wi’ water aboard th^ Walrus. There’s a cask broached tbts minnte on the spar-deck, and all hands fillin’ their pannikins as fast as they can empty ’em, wl’ red-headed Darby astride the butt for luck.” “Which means you will be in no con­dition to make sail a few hours hence,”, deplored my great.-uncle, wag­ging his i head. "/Tis foolishness, Flint This-'-rum-swigging will yel prove the undoing of you and every man of your crew.” . “Look to youf ship, and I’ll look to mine,” snapped Flint, quaffing a wine­glass of the goblet’s contents.My uncle stared him straight in the eye with h- hard, direct thrust, of power which stirred my unwilling ad­miration. “To whom do you owe your present position?” he asked coldly. - Flint made a patent attempt t« stare him down, but abandoned the effort and looked, away. “Some might/say one thing and some another," he muttered.“To whom do, you owe your present position, Flint?” repeated Murray. .■ "Oh, to you, most -ike,” admitted Flint “Blast you!”•.“Have I ever led you Into difficul­ties?/ continued my great-uncle.-‘!Not if—”“Have I ever led you into difficul­ties?” ~ •“No.” Robert offered as hostage In next InstaIImenL •’ - r .

LessonforM archZ JESUS WASHES THE DISCIPLES’ FEET LESSON TEXT—John 12:1-17.GOLDEN TEXT—“The Son of Man Came not_to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give His., life a ransom for many:”—M att 20:2S. . PRIMARY TOPIC—The LovingjBferv- Ice of Jesus. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Loyal Servioe of Jesus, * INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­IC-—Jesus Dignifies Loyal-Servlce.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­IC—The Spirit of Christianity Illus­trated. W ith this chapter we enter into tlie very holy o f holies of the book, nam e­ ly, the inner revelation of C hrist to His disciples. I. Jesus’ Amazing Love for His Own (vv. 1-3). Jesus w as fully conscious of wbat-^vas upon Him." H e knew th at the cross w ith all its anguish w as ju st before Him . H e knew th a t H is dis­ ciples w ould sham efully forsake Him w itliln -a few hours. H e knew th at one of th a t num ber would be the in­ strum ent in the hands o f the devil in H is betrayal. H e knew th a t all things w ere in H is hands—w as fully con­ scious of H is deity.- H e did not w ith­ draw H is love from them because of th eir w eakness and the sham eful fail­ ure which H e knew would soon be m ade m anifest. “H e loved them to the end”—to the utterm ost. T rue love r cir theshortcom ings of the person loved. II. C hrist W ashing His Disciplesf Feet (vv. 4-11). This act is symbolic of H is am azing love for H is disciples. Jesus did not regard H is hands too holy to do this m enial service^ f I. Steps in This Service (vv. 4, 5). (I) H e arose from supper. (2) Laid aside H is garm ents. (3) Took a towel and girded Him self. (4) Poured w ater into a basin,- (5) W ashed H is disciples’ fe e t (6) W iped them w ith the towel w herew ith H e w as girded. These steps symbolize CITrist’s work of redem ption. His" rising from supper' represents .H is rising from H is place of enjoym ent in the heavenly glory. H is laying aside H is garm ents is put­ ting aside H is vesture of m ajesty (Phil. 2:7, S). H is girding H im self is taking the form of a servant in the incarnation (Phil. 2:7). The w ater in th e basin, His cleansing blood. H is' w ashing their fe e t th eir sanctification by actual cleansing men through His W ord (John 15:3; Eph. 5:26). His taking H is garm ents again. H is re­ turn " to H is place and position of glory (L uke'24:51). 2. P eter’s Im petuous Ignorance (vv. 6, 9). H e goes from one extrem e to the other. H is failure Co understand the significance of this service caused him to behave strangely. 3. The Significance of This Service to Those W ho Participate in It (vv. 10-12). (1)* It Is a Spiritual Cleansing (v 8). Fellow ship w ith Jesus is only pos­ sible as we are continuously cleansed from ^ our sin. “H e th a t Is' washed needeth'not save to w ash*hls feet but" is clean every w hit” V(v. 19). The cleansing here is not the w ashing of regeneration (Tit. 3:5), but th a t of sanctification (John 17:17). Even re generate people need the continual cldansing of C hrist’s blood in order to have fellow ship w ith Him. H e that is regenerated—w ashed in the blood of C hrist (symbolized IjaFt baptism ) does not need a repetition of the act; he only needs the clednsing of sancti­ fication symbolized by the w ashing of fh eJeet. A fter regeneration, as we go through this w orld we are,co n tam ­ inated by Sts sin. (2) A B adge of B rotherly Affection. Thi« act showed H is abandonm ent to the service of H is own. This is a lesson th a t is much needed today. We need more and m ore the fulness of brotherly love.. Only can true love be proved by the service it renders. (3) A Proof of Hum ility. T his w as a lesson much needed by, the disciples and much needed by us all. They had ju st been disputing as to w ho-should be the greatest in the Kingdom? T heir selfislr’ m otive was expressing itself. C hrist's action was a concrete expression of H is Spirit. (4) Equalization. As they.-would thus stoop to serve each other in th e nam e of C hrist there would be the sure destruction ol caste am ong th e m / Subli service In th e sp irit of C hrist is the great leveler of hum anity.III. /An Exam ple.for Us (vv. 12-17). T he disciples of the Lord are under ‘obligation to do to each other as He did unto them . This obligation rests upon H is Lordship (v. 14). AU who call H im Lord in sincerity w ill obey Him. ■ / . ■ ' God’s W a y God w orks in a m ysterious way in •race as well as In nature, concealing His operations under an imperceptible succession of events, and thus keeps as alw ays in th e darkness of fa ith .- Fenelon. ; • - ■- Unites and Stills the Soul Let tlie cukrent of your being set to w ard God then your life-will be filled ind calmed" by one m aster-passion which unites and stills the soul,—Alex uider Maclarem. - S- C O A T S O F E X Q U IS IT E W O O L R E P ? A C C E S S O R IE S C O M P L E T E P IC T U R E O P R IN G topcoats present a limitless . 'opportunity for the exercise "of in­ dividual taste and preference. Among the vast array of'new wraps two 'dis­ tinct fashion trends are emphasized. •On the one hand is the swagger, some­ times bizarre novelty woolen coat whose supremacy in the arena of fashion is challenged by the conserva­ tive type of classic distinction, for the styling of which designers choose ex­ quisitely! refined reps and (wills of subtle coloring. JThere is no denying the genteel elegance of a coat of- the latter genre. Fortune favors^the worn,in who be­ comes the possessor of-just- such .a garment as the picture defines, for it is an exponent of high-class fashion. The purchase of a garment styled duced w ith inverted plaits which ex­ tend from the neck. It is the trend of. the spring mode to.,com plete tlie picture w ith charm ­ ing accessories. T o^Jlds end more than ever are scarves high-lighting the fashion stage. A scarf w ith every cos­ tum e is the prevailing style sentim ent. Ju st now the greatest interest seems to center around dhe idea of carrying out a m atch color scheme in hat and scarf. Young girls are taking keen delight in acquiring a colorful simple felt, In such shades, for instance, as bois de" rose, peach; bright or m adonna blue, ■lovebird or ,chartreuse' green, wild, honey or maybe phantom red, or prob­ ably orchid. Then to tlie silk counter do they wend their Joyful steps, asb- V--*-" Each 15 -cent "pack­ age contains - direc­ tions so simple any woman can tint soft, delicate shades or dye rich, permanent colors in lingerie, silks, ribbons, skirts, w a ists, dresses, co ats, stockings, sweaters, draperies, coverings, bangings ,—everything! . — Buy'Diamond Dyes—n</ other kind' —and, tell your druggist ,whether the material you wish to color Is wool or silk, or whether It Is linen, cotton or mixed foods. ' , Makes Straw Briquettes Straw compressed into briquettes under 733 pounds pressure a square Inch, in laboratory, experiments at the Kansas State Agricultural college has proved to have about one-half the heating value of coal and may partly supplant it as a fuel in middle-west­ ern homes, according to W. H; Sand­ers, professor of agricultural engineer­ing of the college. • Professor Sand­ers has invented a machine, entailing rittle cost, operated on the same prin­ciples as a hay baler, which has proved fairly successful In this undertaking. Professor Sanders says that under tests at the engineering department it was found 70 per cent of the heat content of the straw was utilized. O F G E N T E E L ELEG A N C E along these lines and Of1Iike fabric-is without a doubt a wise investment This model is of a superior purl rep. the sort that never retains dust, al­ways looks spick-and-span, perfectly, groomed, so to speak. Its color is the new graystone, a sort of tan-gray. It is youthfully collared with squirrel fur. The sleeves describe each a point at the shoulder and there are Insets down the sides with stitched acorns at tlie hips. In the exquisite finesse of this garment there seems absolute­ly no room for improvement.Fasliionists are enthusiastic over the new woolen reps and luster twills. They are of a super-delicate texture, having a lightsome feel to the touch, ing for either crepe de chine or crepe satin in the self-same shade as the bat just purchased. If one is bent on economy tUTee-quarters of a yard will suffice or a yard if one prefers ya long scarf. This can be cut in two and hemstitched end-to-end together at the back. The scarf is narrowly machine- hemmed along the sides with a wider hemstitch hem across the bottom. Not yet is the ensemble complete, for a rose or chrysanthemum or boutonniere of some sort repeating the chosen color is supposed to be worn with this fetching set of hat and scarf.Are you an artist with the brush? See in this picture of hat, scarf and bag the possibilities which lie before U % I SCARFS ARE POPULAR which makes them a Joy in the wear­ ing.The latest finely textured woolen topcoats add to their exclusive ap­ pearance, in that they are detailed with’matching satin reversi collar arid cuffs. This is accomplished In a strictly tailored. way. As an example, a fine gray twill is used for a straight- line,model. The mannish collar arid simple turn-back cuffs are of matching gray satin, of quality-kind. These lighter-weight cloth coats also often carry interesting shiried and flaring collars'which are edged with a flat fur of corresponding color-tone. Sometimes in the simpler models tlie coiufr is merely a narrow band ending In ties at the front; ■ While crepe de chine is the favorite iinlng-for the fine doth coat, there is plso a tendency^to use ,bright silk for the prints. Considerable designing Is being concentrated oh the back of the mat. and clever fullness is belng-inrro- you. Perhaps fine needlew ork'is your accomplishment. This lovely set would be effective either painted or em broid­ ered. It of course requires ’ an ex­ pert w ith ,the needle to copy a Spanish shawl flower design. The rew ard is w orth the effort, for the silken scarf w ith gorgeous solid em broidered floral m otifs is in especial fashion favor this season. A sim pler stitching m ay be done with bright woolen, yarns in ef­ fective quick patternlngs. As to hand- i painting, its vogue is on the increase j in the realm of fashion. I W ide m etal ribbon is used for the ! choker tie-collar as pictured. Of I course it m ust be accompanied with a boutonniere.I Just now there is a fad to1 star the ■ ends of ‘ evening scarves with .chine stones. French flower-ribbon work also effectively decorates tlie dressy scarf. Hand-painted, leather makes a sinar. set- including belt, codar and cwfs JULI-A i.io t t <>.".i :j ;v.i/ei t02G.

W. B. CALDWELL ATTHBACEOFpa While Dr. W. B. Caldwell, of Mon- ticello,' 111., a practicing physician- for 47 years, knew that constipation was the cnrse of advancing age, he did not believe that a , “purge” " or "physic” every little while' was necessary. To him, it seemed cruel that so many constipated old people had to be kept constantly “stirred up” and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tab­ lets, salts, calomel and nasty oils.

U., CHARLOTTE, NO. 10-1926. FIGURES ON AGE OF EARTH ARE REVISED Billion and a Half Years Is New Estimate. Austin, Texas.—Geologists generally have accepted the comparatively re-, cent calculation of physicists that the age of the world is approxim ately 1,500,000,000 years, according to Dr. Charles Schuchert, professor em eritus of paleontology a t Tale university, who Ts giving a special course in stratigraphic geology at the Dniverslty of -Texas this term. “As for the age of the earth, our conceptions have been greatly altered by the work of the physicists during the iast tw enty years,’’ Doctor Schuch­ ert said. “The best calculation of the earth’s age comes from the rate of dis­ integration of radium -bearing m inerals and, on that basis, the age of the earth now Is estim ated to be not less than 1,500.000,000 years. Such a vast length of tim e Is beyond our concep­ tion. “A century ago it was alm ost uni­ versally held that" the earth w as about 5,600 years-old. Through the rate o f disintegration of radium-bear-' ing m inerals all of our older calcu- tions have been gfeatly altered. Until this discovery w as made and worked out geologists the w orld over held that the age of the earth w as of the order of about 125,000,000 years. Basis of Calculation. “This calculation w as based on the am ount of salt in solution In the oceans and the present rate of new supplies yielded by the fivers flowing Into them. The rivers today, however, are yielding a greater annual average of this sait than w as the rate during the geologic ages, and geologists later began to think of the age of the earth os som ething like 300,000,000 years." Doctor Schuchert said that recently it w as widely believed that oil produc­ tion would play out, or a t least be vastly reduced during the next 25 years, but that many noted geologists now saw no fear of an Immediate ex­ haustion of this natural wealth. , “A few years ago predictions were made by the best geologists that the peak of production had been reached,” he continued. ’ “As yet, however, no decline has set In, but of course, soon­ e r or later the supply of liquid pe­ troleum will be exhausted. Even so, there are vast am ounts of shales hold­ ing oils which can be extracted through distillation. “More modern methods have been adopted recently by which a greater' quantity of oil Is obtained from a given field than formerly,” he said. “In Pennsylvania old wells which were be­ lieved exhausted have been revived by pumping w ater or air into the old holes or into newly driven ones, thus forcing up more of the oil reserves. It is widely held that only about 25 per cent of the oil of a given field I so far, brought to the surface. Sup pose that by the adoption of im proved methods this could be in creased to 50 per cent. It would mean an enormous addition to production. Old Theories Discarded. “W ith the progress of scientific re­ search and discoveries some of the old theories as Jo the origin of petroleum have been placed In the discard. One of these is the old belief that the nat­ ural oils are of volcanic origin. It is now well known that petroleum is the end residlum of once living things and chiefly of m arine plants, although some of it is also of animal origin.” !, Doctor Schucltert . evinced much in­ terest In the inform ation that has come to him of the possible potash wealth of Texas. ‘I understand th at in the oil ex­ plorations In the w estern part of Texas potash salts have been found over an extensive area,” he said. “If potash Is present” In workable quan­ tities it means a trem endous wealth to the state, even long after the oil is gone. N ot only is potash In great demand as a fertiliser, but enormous quantities of it are used In the chemi­ cal Industries. Nowhere In North America are the Perm ian beds better developed than in the - semi-arid re­ gions of western Texas and nowhere are there greater supplies of gypsum and table salts.” Air Passengers Sleep on London-Paris, Trip London.—Lulled by the ceaseless drone, of engines, so high In the air that there is little sensation of speed and w ith landm arks of England and the continent far below, many air pas­ sengers, It is found, fall asleep while In planes between London and Paris. To provide greater comfort for these mid-air nuppers, a new arm chair has been designed for giant air-express planes now being constructed. Luxuriously upholstered, the new seats have high sloping backs;and are fitted with softly-padded head rests. These will pillow the head of the trav­ eler who w ishes to contem plate how seasick he would have been In a cross channel steam er or will .ease the agony of air-sick passengers sweeping along In the m ists or sunshine high above land and sea. . i Want.

THE DAVIE RECOBP, MOCKSVILLE, N. 0, KILLSTWQDEER WITH ONE SHOT Rene Fonck Distinguishes Self . in Georgia. Savannah, Ga.—The most distin­ guished hunting party entertained on the coast of Georgia this seasan w as that which included Governor W alker of Georgia and Capt. Rene Fonck, fa­ mous Freqch flying ace. L ate in De­ cem ber they, w ith others,, spent sev­ eral days on Ossabaw island, owned by Dr. H. N. Torrey of D etroit and Savannah. They w ere the guests of Howard Coffin of D etroit, and the whole hunting trip w as a great suc­ cess. Besides the governor and ' Captain Fonck and Mr. Coffin, the party w as made up of Charles Nunally of At­ lanta, Governor W alker’s chief of staff; Robert W oodruff of A tlanta; P eter S. Tw ltty, Georgia state game w arden,,and a few other guests. C aptain Fonck had never shot in Georgia before, He was amazed a t the great quantity of game the is­ land possessed. T hat the deer are plentiful Is shown by the fact that C aptain Fonck killed two w ith one shot. This is one of the rem arkable stories brought back by the hunting' party. W hile on a stand w aiting for the dogs to drive In a few bucks or to have them pass his way of their own accol-d, the trained eye of the man who w as such a terror to German flyers during the w ar saw th at two deer w ere coming tow ard him.

It is said this is a feat never be­ fore accomplished on 03sabaw island. It m ade Captain Fonck the real hero of the trip. CHILD NOVELIST Felicia Fisher, eleven years old, daughter of Dr. Stanley A. Fisher of New York, has been w riting since she w as six, but has none of the queer characteristics of the usual child prodigy.

All the inform ation which he gave on these places w as rescued fro m , the brink of the grave and there is no Ipne else th at knows even a fraction of I t ” Mr. H arrington visited a. place w here the Indians formerly captured eagles by letting a man down the face of a cliff by. means of a rabbit net woven of the red milkweed fiher, Another of Mr, H arrington’S guides is Angel Cuilpe, one hundred am i-four years old, who accompanied him oil a trip down th e Canada de las Uvas. “Many of the archeological sites we visited,” w rites Mr. H arrington, “appar­ ently had not been touched since In­ dian times and we found w ithout diffi­ culty the old hut circles on the sur­ face of the ground, either m arked by rings of rocks which were form ed by the Indians clearing the surface for the circular hut or by rings of raised earth which m ark the form er walls. Ancient Village Is Found. “The largest village we discovered w as that known to the Mission In­ dians as M ilyahu. This differed from the other sites in being located on a detached rocky hill, which Ims th e ap­ pearance of a great towering citadel when seen from the arroyo. The little Indian wigwams, varying In diam eter from fourteen- to tw enty feet, nestle all over the sum m it of this hill and the circles are as fresh as If the place had been abandoned yesterday.” On a bill on the Santa M aria ranch near Ram ona Mr. H arrlngtoh discov-. ered an ancient Jndian fortification wall, which Is evidently in much the sam e condition as when it was aban­ doned. It Is made o f rocks piled in the form of a parapet five feet or more In height. Tlie wall form s a corral around the top of the liilt. Command­ ing a fine view o f the valley, it was used, aecording-to tradition, as an out­ look. In Palm canyon he reaped a rfch harvest in hitherto unrecorded place- names and archeological sites.

Miss EsteJla Wright, of Candler, Buncombe county, who astonised her family, and friends several weeks ago bv a remarkable recovery from an invalid’s bed of several years, died Sunday night after her short period of apparent good health. Miss Wright had b°ea an invalid for two; vears or more, and was sup posed to be incurable, but a short time ago she got up from the bed that had claimed her Po for long at about 9 o’clock one night and commenced waking the family, and shouting praise because of her re­ cot ery. She based her reason for the s idden recovery on the fact that she had prayed so fervently and for so long that her faith had sustained heir and in this manner she regained her health. It was widely comment­ ed on at that time and Miss Wright had planned to go to Asheville and begin work. Shehad already com­ menced helping with the family du­ ties at home. It developed, however, that Miss Wright was suffering with tuber­ culosis and the extreme excitement of. her recent experiences had been too great a strain on her strength Largest Leat Tobacco Market in World. The Wilson leaf tobacco market, largest in the world, sold the , last of the 1925 crop and the seven in­ dependents auction • warehouses closed their doors Friday of the past week for the season, shatter­ ing all previous sale records.

When the women began to vote many people seemed to think that there would be a woman's party or at least an alignment of the women against the man in the other par­ ties "The women” will do that, it was said. People talk of "the farm er” in the same way, or “ the Methodist." The idea seemed to be that because women are Women they would all see alike, all act a- like, all want the same things and all seek to gain their wishes in the same way. But it was found' that women did not act that way. They continued to act as human beings, each an individual with individual ideas, individual wants, and in­ dividual ways of satisfying those wants. This has not been satis­ factory to some of the more pro nounced leaders, for there are sel­ fish and ambitious men leaders. If these could turn the trick of herd­ ing and leadiug all women as mere 'women,” they would iudeed have a picnic. . They could dominate the politics of the country and take over all the offices and pass any laws they might see fit. But women -have very few if.any essential pub­ lic problems different from men. The suffrage amendment gave the women the right to vote every­ where but, as women leaders are now pointing out, it gave them nothing else. So they propose a- nother amendment to the constitu­ tions in these words, "Women shall have equal rights with men in the United States or places subiect to jurisdiction.” Tdis1 it is claimed, will remove all such discriminations as may now exist under the- com­ mon law For instance, when Mrs. Ferguson become governor of Tex­ as she had to obtain the consent of a court and her husband to become a free trader, lest complications might arise in signing contracts. There are still remnants of the law which are unfair to married women, and with these wiped out men, un­ married women, and married worn eb will stand upon an exactly equal basis before the law. But all these relate to personal rights arid do not touch the interest of women as citi­ zens, interested in the common laws which govern our living. So as time goes on we may expect less and less-of the mass interest, and there will indeed be.no such thing as “ the woman vole.” As Yoo Were.

We hear the favorable side of North Carolina, but it is not often that we get a gloomy picture. And to build properly we must under­ stand the true situation in the State. Values are not made by booms un­ less there is something concrete de­ velopment behind it all. Just be­ cause one man buys a piece of land and then holds it for twice what he paid, does not make that land more valuable. In the current issue of the Uni­ versity News Letter, Prof. E. C. Branson writes: ‘North Carolina has twenty-two million idle wilderness acres, a hun­ dred thousand vacant towns and city lots, and a million, three nun- dred and eighty thousand landless, homeless people, town and country. Almost exactly one-third of our white farmers and two-thirds of our negio farmers own no land. The people who live in rented dwellings in our towns and cities are two- thirds to three fourth of the var­ ious municipal populations. "There are people in North Ca­ rolina who own not an inch of the soil they cultivate nor a^single sin­ gle in the roofs over their heads. They are fifty-two per cent or more than half the entire populatiijn of the state. ‘ ‘Enduring social structures can­ not be built on land-ownership by the few and land-orphanage for the many. . Civilization is rooted and grounded in the home-owning, home-loving, home defending in­ stincts.” Much'Money in State. Chief Bank Examiner Latham announced Thursday that the peak of all bank riches in North Caro­ lina was reached the past year when according to the statement of the 501 State banks and their 67 branches made December 31, 1925, the resources totaled S307,159,781. The national oanks of the State had resources amounting to $199,- 105,000 making a grand total of both State and national banks of fo06.264.781.

After a few days,- he began to en­ counter some of the difficulties ot the average postmaster. He resign­ ed. The government refused to ac­ cept it, saving that there was no one else to succeed him, and' it was im­ perative that someone act as post­ master. It was then that Britt bundled up his equipment and for warded it to Washington with the note. _______________ Turnips Paid This Man. David M. Templeton,, a farmer living near Mount Mourne, Iredell county, was in ■ Mooresville, Thurs day and had on’ exhibition a fine turnip of the Purple Top variety, weighing aboift 4 1 2 pounds. A good- shower just after this patch was sown brought them up. Mr. Templeton, who sowed 50 cents wprth of mixed seed, sold $22 worth of turnips and did not sell more •than one-third of the crop.

North Carolina is in a fine posi­ tion now to, make this year, of its greatest advancement. Another proof of this is found in the fact that the banks in the, State now have resources of over a half billion dollars. They have more monev than at any time in the history of North Carolina. Banks make money by lending money on good security. Most ot those in North Carolina would pre­ fer to lend money in the State, where it will result in the growth of industry and the creation of new wealth and a consequent increased growth of North Carolina banking. Banks can and do play a most important part in all industrial ad­ vancement. In North Carolina they could still play a bigger role by more thoroughly co-operating with each other in the several com­ munities and agreeing to eliminate all factional bank fights that some times result in killing off industries that otherwise would be organized. No bank can lose by the organized. No bank can lose by the organiza­ tion of a new industry in its town, no matter if a rival should get the deposits ot the company money. Every cent that may be withdrawn vvill came back in new deposits through the growth that the city will enjoy as a whole.—The Dis patch. The Catawba Highway Vacancy. The Catawba News-Enterprise de­ clared the past week when George Lyerly-plead guilty to trading with himself while being a member of the Catiwbarhighway commission and- was fined $50 for the offense, that Lyerly automatically vacated the of­ fice according to the law. From a statement in the News- Enterprise of later' date' in seems that8ome are questioning whether Lyerly is still a member, perhaps the Democratic ring in CataWba who made an effort to smother the affair and did at one time get it off the court docket, which leads Editor Me- bane to cite them to statute in ques tion which reads as follows: Section 4390 of the Consolidated StatutesofNorthCarolina contains the following words: “ He shall be forthwith removed from his position in public service and shall upon con­ viction be deemed guilty of a misde-' raeanor and fined not less than fifty | dollars nor more than five hundred1 dollars and be imprisoned, in the dis-1 cretion of the court.”—Union Re­ publican. Keeping Cows Means $60,920 Ex­ tra Income For This County. An added income of $60,920 a year is enjoyed by Davie county farmers indirectly as a result of keeping cows, according to the Larrowe Institure of Animal Eco­ nomics. This income is in the form of a more fertile soil due to the manure of the dairy cows in this county. On the basis of practi­ c a l a $20.00 fertilizer valuation per animal per yearl this means a total of $60 920 added to the rich­ ness of the soil in this county every, twelve months. Manue is a: source of the most valuable plant food obtainable, says the Institute, but to preserve it at its highest value or efficiency, it should either be put directly to the fields each day or conserved until such a time as the opportunity of fers itself to spread it. Feeding trials have proven tnat an ordinary cow, while putting from 15 to 18 per cent of the total energy of tl e feed she consumes into milk, ac­ tually returns! to the soil 80 pe. cent of the elements of soil, fertility in her feed in the form of manure. This had let many dairymen to discover that the purchase of good concentrate feeds for their cows not only more than pays for itself in increased milk production but that it also supplies necessary food to farm crops that are expensive when bought in the form of com­ mercial fertilizer.

Ratledge had been on a visit to what is known as the “ Little \Na- tion” section of Yadkin and Davie counties and had been many weary miles thru woods and marsh with- ’ out success. Finally deciding that his hunt was useless he made his way out and started for home in the direction of Courtney, Soon he was overtaken by a Ford roadster containing three boys, driving reck­ lessly and trying to pass the feder­ al officer. His keen nose told biin there was easy “pie” in that gang for him and he began to play them in bad. In their effort to get by the officer’s car the Ford was over­ turned aud pinned all three occup­ ants under the machine. Well, thought Mr Ratledge', that was all too easy. But he was destined to disappointment He could not let them stay under the machine. That was inhuman. So he pulled oue of them out and ask­ ed him to help extricate his fellow passengers. He appeared willing so they pulled out a second one, leaving one yet under the wreck­ age. All hand then started to raise the little car from the pinned com­ panion aud when it was raised to a point where it could not be turned loose by all as it would fall on the third man, the two helpers flew the coop and made for the tall timbers of which that section is noted. Mr Ratledge could only hold his posi­ tion and look a t them run or loose Kis Hold ancj probably -kill-fjjh'e re­ maining man. He held his. post and the third man was rescured, handcuffed, and severely cautioned. But the first chance that offered it­ self he broke all the speed records in that section, taking with him handcuffs and ail. Mr. RatIedge had done his duty as he saw it and done it well, but suddenly found himself with only a demolished Ford and three pints of booze on • his hands. Carelessness, A Dragon that Needs to Be Slain. The Toledo Blade, years ago printed this riddle for its reades: “ What am I?” " I am more pow­ erful than the combided armies of the world. I have destroyed more men than all the wars of the na­ tions. I steal in the United State’s alone, hundreds of millions of dol­ lars each year. I spare no one, and I find my victims among the rich and the poor alike, the young and the old, the strong and the weak. I loom up in such propor­ tions that I cast my shadow over every field of labor, from the turn­ ing of the every rail rail road train. I lurk in unseen places aud do most of my wortc silently. You are warned against me, but you heed not. I am everywhere—in the house on the street, in the fact­ ory, at tailroad crossings and on the sea. I bring sickness; degra: dation and death, and yet few seek to avoid me. I give nothing and take all. I am your worst enemy. I am not drink, hatred, or selfish­ ness. What am I?'1 The answer to the riddle was: “I am careless­ ness.” Write in your book that no one succeeds until he ceases to be careless. It is so in business, arid more so in matters of religion. —Alabama Baptist. Almost anv politician can win applause by saying: ‘ AU that I am I owe to the little wife.” So why not let “Ma” Ferguson give credit to the little husband?—Chi­ cago Daily News.

HOtDDEn SMITH “ JL id h u scR v iee SYNOPSIS The story opens In New York, about the middle of the J3i?ht* eenth century. Robert Ormerod, who tells the tale, is talking to Peter Corlaer, chief of the trad­ers, and man of* enormous - strength, when Darby McGraw, Irish bonded boy, brings news that a pirate ship is "off the Hook/' An old sea captain an­ nounces he has been* chased by the notorious pirate, Captain Rip-Rap. T?he older Ormerod tells Robert the pirate is Andrew Murray, his (Robert's) great- uncte, commanding the pirate ship, the Royal James. Murray Is an ardent Jacobite. Next day Robert and Darby encounter a one-legged sailor, John Silver. Robert meets a young woman from a Spanish trigate who Js seeking her ..father. Colonel O'Donnell. Murray with a force of I sailors visits the Ormerod house. He announces his inten­tion of carrying off Robert, by force, if necessary, promising him a great future. The Royal James and the Walrus, the latter com­ manded by Flint, Murray’s part­ ner in piracy, appear.. Murray, Robert and Peter board the James. C H A P T E R V I— C o n tin u ed Y —7— "Have we failed In any important venture since onr association began?” “You ha’ a head on your shoulders,” conceded Flint. llAnil you have not,” amended Mur­ ray. “No, do not say any more. You are an excellent man to handle your ship, Flint, and as fearless as any of onr ruffians; but you are no more ca­ pable of looking ahead a week or two than Ben Gunn.” “Well, what would you?” Flint flung at him with an air of defiance, which Murray ignored. 'I would make the greatest coup we' have attempted.” , Flint laughed disagreeably. “So you said when you arranged to go into New York, but you have car­ ried back no treasure with you.” My uncle regarded him with what, under, other circumstances, I should describe as honest indignation. 1 “You fool!” he said with a rasp in his voice—and I did not wonder that Flint pulled.sidewise In his chair as if to avoid a stab. 11Did ,you think ' I was to go into that huddle of a town, with its wealth in furs and groceries, and fetch out a treasure?” . “W h a t then?” demanded Flint, moistening his lips. My uncle leaned forward across the table, lips drawn tight over his teeth. His eyes shot sparks.- “Knowledge, fool! ^ Intelligence! That which'wise men labor a lifetime to secure and the ignorant pass by In. the gutter.” Murray rose from the table and com­ menced to stroll tiie length off the cabin, hands clasped under the skirts of his coat. And as he strolled he talked. Flint followed his every move uneasily, with occasional drafts of: rum. Peter and I watched the .two of them, fascinated by-this conflict of wills, which was to exert a vital influence upon our lives—yes, and upon those of hundreds of others. “I must speak in simple terms, I perceive, Flint,” began my great- uricle. '- The passion was out of his voice, and the sentence trickled from his lips slowly, with an air of detachment. F lint nodded sullenly, seeing that an answer was required. “We have frequently discussed the possibility of taking one of the Span­ ish treasure ships,” continued Mur­ ray. “But we have never attempted the project, because we could not dis­ cover the date of sailing or the port - wherein. the treasure was embarked. It hath -been -the custom of the'Span­ iards In recent; years—in fact, since the depredations of M organjind his brethern to shift arbitrarily Tthe port of embarkation from year to year, as llkewise-.to change the date of sailing. One year the port would be Cnrtageha, the next Chagres, the next Porto Bello, the next even Vera Cruz. They have . been known to ship the 3'ear’s produce of the mines around Cape Horn, .And similarly . the treasure ;ships, which used formerly- to sail invariably in the fall of the year, now depart when­ ever it pleases .the fancy of the coun- , cil of the Indies to fix a date.” „ He paused, and Flint rasped-y- r “So much is known to all of us.” “I conceded as much.” answered Murray smoothly. “Wliat follows you do not know. When we returned from Madagascar—” “ ’Twas against my advice.” growled Flint. “Ye play too much wT politics.” “With politics! Exactly,” agreed my great-uncle. “Well, perhaps-1 do. ’Tls true that so far I have obtained trifling advantage from the sport, ex­ cluding one. substantial fortune, this vessel we are in and the information which makes it possible for me to take, this year’s-treasure ship.” Flint sat erect. I caught my breath. Peter, too, .-showed a gleam of excitement in his little eyes that twinkled from behind the ramparts of flesh that masked his. solemn-face. ... "• ' me, Murray!” swore Flint. VDo you say that, in sober earnest? How—how much?” he quavered. “’One million five hundred thousand pound*.” / '‘There was a moment of silence. Tbe clean, golden sunlight flooded through the stern windows and dap­ pled the polished surface of the table with darting molts and beams. Flint’s jaw dropped on his chest. His greenp- eyes glared. Peter and I were ris. dazed as himself. Only my great- uncle remained calm, pacing quietly up and down the carpeted deck, eyes fixed npon some distant vision of the future. , 11A 11 — t h a t ?” stammered Flint. “ 1Sdeath! 1Twould be the greatest haul in our time, Murray.” “It is ours,” affirmed Murray. “Up­ on terms.” •Terms?” echoed Flint. “What terms? Who can compel us to terms?” My great-uncle came to a stop In front of him. ■- “My terms, let us say,” he an­ swered. ■ • “But If ye know of yourself where it can be taken why must we bother wP terms, Murray?” clamored Flint. “What’s riches for us can be pared down to short cuts if it must be shared out right and left. If. we take it, why not take all?” “Because,” retorted Murray with a burst of terrible energy, “I have passed-my word as to the terms upon which 'the treasure is to be taken.” "What’s your word?” rapped Flint. For a moment I thought my great- unefe would strike him.' He made to draw bdfck his arm, and perspiration stood out in white beads upon his forehead. Flint feared i£ too, but did not raise a hand to protect him­ self, charmed to immobility by the virulence of the basilisk’s stare which Murray directed at him. “It Is finy word,” said SIurray fi­ nally in a very soft voice. “No more, F lin t A poor thing, as the poet hath said, yet my own! Also —that I may chime In harmony with your -* .mental . processes—it happens that my personal interests are bound up with the observance of these terms. / “It is a matter we will not discuss further, since, it is beyond the range of your comprehension. I shall mere­ ly say that the terms are fixed, and that you will either accept or reject them.” . “What are they?” “As to division of the spoils? One hundred thousand pounds to myself as author and architect of the plan; seyen hundred thousand to our two ships; and seven hundred thousand to my friends who co-operated^with me to make it possible.” Blint brought his fist crashing down upon the table. 1T ll be ——- if .I accept!” he shouted. “What? Less than half to our company? And you sneaking oil with a cool hundred thousand pound^ in.your pockets, and your friends, as like as hot, splitting secretly with you!” My great-uncle refreshed liimself with snuff, contriving to invest the ceremony with an effect of distaste which I found amusipg. ■ 1Stap me, but yon; have a - low mind!” be-drawled; “Allow me to direct your attention to tlw tact that the plan amounts to my friends and I undertaking voluntarily to present you an opportunity to participate in the division of seven hundred thou­ sand pounds, for which you will be called upon to do nothing except agree to follow, out several stipula­ tions I shall lay down.” • “Let’s hear 'em.” ^ My .great-uncle ticked off tlie items upon his finger-tips. “First, 'tis highly desirable that, we should lie low during- the ensuing months. Activities such as we usually conduct would tend to affright the’ council of theJndies .and bring about a change in plan for the treasure ship’s sailing.” “W hat shall we .do, tlien?” “My counsel is, to bear up for Spy­ glass island and careen there. Both ships, are foul,-and ’twill prove an ex­ cellent opportunity to make all clean and right.” Flint nodded. • “We shall need our speed against the Spaniard,” he commented. '• “I shali,” returned my great-uncle with? some emp'liasis. “This brings me to- my second point.' 'Tis advis­ able that we do not cruise in com­ pany for the treasure. I aim to inter­ cept tlie SaBtisslma Trinidad before she passes from the Caribbean -into the Atlantic.” The blue look became intensified In. Flint's .face. “You’d leave the Walrus behind?” be demanded. . “I must. Figure it for- yourself,” argued my relative.' “Two tall ships plying the narrow- seas; .within, easy sail of Jamaica and the Havana and Marmico! We should have the frig1 ates after us in no time. My plan isv to masquerade as a king’s ship, run­ ning from any ugly customers who show themselves.” “Aye,” said F lm ti1 “And after you’d’ taken the. treasure and stowed it all vbelow hatches .what thought w ould you give to. us aboard, the - Walrus, eh? You’d be 'up and i qff, and we mignt whistle ^ for-our share ” -11Yon wrong:me. Captain Flint,” re­ plied my great-uncle simply. Bnt Flint gave an ugly laugh. -It might bes^lie rum or the stimulus of the debate or a gradual access of self- reliance; but he was no longer to- be cowed by moral suasion. “If I wrong you, Murray, ’twould be the first time without valid cause,” he rejoined. “Come,’come! Youm ust think of me better than that. It won’t w.asb. W hat you say sounds well enough. It may be true. But I coudn’t go back and report it to a fo’csie counsel on- the W alrus and expect to have it believed. I have to blink myself when I think of it. ——!” He grinned evilly. “I know what I’d do in your shoes.” My great-uncle regarded him spec- ulativeiy. “What, then, is your answer?” Mur­ ray inquired, . , “I don’t play .on those terms,” re­ turned Flint with decision. “Let -me cruise with you, have a share in tak­ ing the prize, and I’ll talk differently.’.’ Murray shook his head. 11 ’Twould ruin the plan. I know you, F lint.' T is not in you to cruise for days and forego fat merchants that cross your bows, ripe 'to be plucked. No, I can’t risk it. Alone, I can co*trive not to attract atten­ tion.- In company, we should stir up a hornet's nest.” “Curse me for a canting mugger, then, if I’ll trade on it,” snarled Flint. “I’ll not.trjist you, Murray, and that’s flat.” , “Suppose that I gave you a host­ age?” suggested my great-uncle ten- . "I Met Wer by Aqcident.” tatively. “One whose life means to me more than my own.” ' ’ “The man does not live,” Flint swore roundly. “He sits across the table,” returned Murray. “My grandnephew. and heir. I, will go so far as to assert that the only reason I concern myself with this exploit is that I may secure ear tate and preferment for him.” FIint^eyed him shrewdly, looked from him to ine and from me to him- “Your grandnephew;;'■you s a y ? Long John' says you’re choice o’ him. Still— No I like not your, terms, Mur­ ray; They offer too little.” "They are the best I can offer,” answered Murray definitely. “I will add, that there may be no misunder­ standings, Flint, that the odd seven hundred thousand pounds goes to pro- mote the interest of a cause, and not to Iiiie the pockets of Spanish offi­ cials, as you may suspect; - and it is highly probable that considerable of thy share will follow it. I pay seven hundred thousand pounds,, to be di­ vided share and share by the two ships’ companies,. and your company will incur no risk to win it.” Flint rose and settled his belt. “I accept, for that I can do no . bet­ ter,” he said.’ “But I must have the hostage.” He snapped his' finger\ to­ ward me. < “Come on, my lad. We’ll show you the life of real gentlemen adventur­ ers aboard the Walrus.” “I'm no negro man to be bargained over and passed from owner to owner!” I exclaimed hotly.- “You can make me go, but . I’ll noisstep will­ ingly.” Flint was about to answer with a spurt of oaths when Murray inter­ rupted. • “You anticipate matters,” he re­ buked his associate. “There is no oc­ casion for a hostage yet. We shall sail at once for the Rendezvous. It Will be weeks, aye, months,. before I am in shape to sail west under His­ paniola. Time enough^ then to talk 'of delivering your hostage.” For an instant Flint appeared to be about to object to this view, but he evidently decided it was not worth another dispute. "Let it go,” he assented gruffly. “We'll settle the details at the island. D—-n me—” this - with a sudden re­ vival of friendliness— “I. knew we had not picked up that red headed Iad for nothing! . ’Tls a sure sign o’Tuck.” And out he swaggered from- the cabin, stamping and banging the door and sprinkling curses freely as Jie gained the deck and shouted for his • boat’s crew to row him’ back to the Walrus. C H A P T E R V II^• - \ A W ic k e d O ld M a n ’s D re a m My great-uncle sank into his chair with a gesture of disgust and poured three fingers of brandy into a wine­ glass. -11Pbaugh!” he exclaimed. “At times I am nauseated by the company perforce I keep.” I laughed, and he put the glass from his lips, peering at me across its rim as if-surprised. - “You find occasion for mirth in my remark, Robert?” “No,” I said; “I am only expressing to you my feeling that you have as little claim to possession. of a sense of honor as the man who was just here.” ' Murray’s large face,' with Its jW - erful, craggy features, glowed with the radiance of an Intense personal conviction. 11W hat is honor? Or ‘dishonor? Certes, here we have a call for close reasoning. No hasty generalities can dismiss so vexed a problem, which hath consumed tlie attention of gentle­ men since gentility’s institution,. I conceive of honor. as the quality of being faithful to oneself, to the ethical standard one. has established for this life we-pass through so precariously.” 11So that if a man practices dishon­ esty toward all save himself he pre­ serves hi|-honor!” I protested. , “Now/'do you twist my thoughts,” replied my. great-uncle. “And in the same breath you raise a com piemen-' tary question; Ayhat is dishonesty—or honesty? As I have told you before, I take from those who have much, those who prey upon others.’” 11You are clever w ith words,” I sneered; “but I’ll not be fooled.

Hence / 1Covent Garden,” from the garden,, of a convent that once stood ori the site of the -famous London fruit and flower market. By degrees “coven.” came to. be used to describe ahy gathering of twelve peo­ ple with a leader. In the case of witches, it came to, stand for a com­ pany of twelvfe, with their chief im­ personating or representing the devil. In England, every1'district seems to have had its coven, and local meet­ ings were usually held once a week; but the “Sabbath of - Witches,” held- four times a year, and usually on a Thursday, lof some strange reason, was the more important of th e gath- Thrift Not Mere Saving It is well to understand that thrift means much more than the mere sav­ ing of money, says Thrift Magazine. It :is unfortunate that so much of our cur­ rent thrift educational effort Is direct­ ed Solely along lines of-money saving Many people,/ through, great patience and sell*denial, are able-to lay by a comfortable sum, only to lose if m tbb- end1 through . ill-advised investment. Thrlff education should -be. conduct­ ed- along broad lines.. -How, ..to- spend and Invest Is as important as Iiow to save erings. Once in every seven years, there would be' what was ,called a “Great Sabbath,” at • which all the coveps of a wide district^would con­ gregate, and tradition has it that on that occasion • the chief witch or "Devil” , himself was sacrificed. , New Rays Discovered Science has-established'the exist­ ence of new fa.vs, stronger than ultra X-rays and 1,000 times ■ greater In frequency, with Ionization the same at all -times of the day- or night and of 10,000,000-volt variety.

JUNIOR X’OPIC—Wonderful Promises of Jesus. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­IC—Jesus Counsels and Confers with His Disciples. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­IC—Ciitist s Last Words With His Dis­ ciples. The hopes of the disciples were ut­ terly.shattered when Jesus told them about the cross: He had told them that He was going awa.w and they could not follojiv Him. Their hearts were flooded with grief. He xonsoled them b.v— . L Pointing to the Reunion in the Fathers House (vv. 1-3). ■-I. He Asked Them to 'Trust in Him Even as God (v. I). \ Faith in the God man' Glirist Jesus will steady the heart no matter bow intense the grief, nor how great the sorrdw. 2. He Informed ’Them That He Was Going to the Father s House in Heaven to Frepare a Home for Them (v. 2). He assured them that there was abundant room for all. Heaven is an eternal dwelling place. Onl.v those can enter who have made the neces­ sary preparation here. 3. He AssuredThem Tbat He W ould Come Again and Escort- Them to Heaven (v. 3). Jesus, will not wait for His own to come to Him. but will come and call forth from the grave those who have died and transform living believers and take them all to be with Himself In the heavenly home forever more. II. Reyealing the Way to the Fa­ ther's House (vv. 4-11). Jesus informed the disciples that tliev knew the place and Ihe way to which He was going. To tins Tlioinas interposed a donbt. in answer to which Christ asserts ..that He is— 1. The Way to God (v. 6). He is more than a mere guide or teacher: He is the wav itself. He is the door of the sheep fold; yea, the verv entrance to the tree of life. 2. The Truth (v. 6). He is not merely the teacher, but the 'Truth incarnate. In His incarna­ tion the spiritual and material worlds were united. Therefore, every line of truth- whether spiritual or material, converges in Him. No one can ever have I the real truth anout anything who does not linvo Christ. In Him es­ pecially we have the truth about God. To pretend to know God. wlule at the same time rejecting Jesus Christ is utter follv. Only as Christ reveals God can man know Him (John 1:18). 3. The T.ife <v. 15). Christ is not merelv the giver of life, but He 15 the essence of life. Only those who receive Christ have, life In the true sense. This is a truth which cannot lie arrived at by intel­ lectual processes. It is a m.vstef.v which can only he penetrated b.v faith. III. Assuring Them That His Work Was to Continue (vv. 12-14). Jesus’ going awnv was not to end the work which He had begun. Tins no doubt means that through the min­ istry of the spirit-filled disciples the work which He had beguD would as­ sume larger proportions. After the Day of Fentecost the Gospel took a much wider range. During His-min­ istry the message was confined to fhe Jews while under the ministry of tlie disciples it was only limited bv the world itself. The disciples’ ministry was usliered m b.v the conversion of three thousand in one day. IV. Promises Another Comforter (vv. 15-17). The word -comforter- means lit­ erally one called to the side of another to give help, protection and deliver­ ance. \Thls comforter was the Holy S pirit Jesus was the comforter while here in the bodv. Tlie Holy Spirit was to be another comforter. V. Assuring Them of His Return to Tjiem (vv. 18-24). Although Christ went away He did not leave His disciples, as orphans. He is spiritually present with them always. The Father and the Son m ake. their abode with the disciples who love and obev Jesus-ehrist. VI. Assuring Them That'.the Holy Spirit Would Aid Them in Remember­ ing and Understanding His: Worde vv. 25. 26).

(Prepared by the United- Statps Department of Agriculture.j Tlie-nmnner ip which Union county, Ky., disposed of its lust scrub bull Is described by County Agent U. O. Wil­ son in n report ,-received Iiy the United States Department of Agriculture. A survey made enrlv in .the year showed that cattle owners In Union county had In use 103 pure-bred bulls, grades ami seven scrubs. Through puiilicity and personal interviews with owners-of grade and scrub bulls, the county agent succeeded in getting the last scrub bull in the count.v removed during the year. Of the 22 grade bulls only four remained, and their owners are planning to replace them with pure Di-eds. This county appears to be the first hi the sUnited States en: tireiy free from scrub bulls, and it Is very close to a pure-bred sire basis with respect to its ! breeding stock. TIie present status is the result of live stock betterment work stinted five years ago by County Agent L. ,C. Brewer. On January I, 1926, 530 live stock owners in this county were participat­ ing in "the. “Better Sires—Better Stock” campaign conducted Iiy the va­ rious states and the United States Department of Agriculture. AU of these stock owners have agreed to: use pure-bred males exclusively in all lirepding operations. Materia] finan­ cial benefits already are evident fn- tlie superior quality of the on-coming young stock. r rke KitcKen 1 Ti Cabinet In=A Jilll T.OOK GIBLS—30-lnch strand Labelle Inde­structible pearls, Stonesot. clasp, handsome box, »1.00.

G ra p ev in es T h riv e in a W id e l V a riety o f S o ils Grapevines1Uirive in a wide -variety ofsoiis. Those that are too shallow, w et or’excessively dry should be avoid­ ed. Sandy loams, loams and gravelly ioams grow vigorous vines that carry productive crops, says a writer in the. Itural New Yorker. In commercial practice the vineyard is plowed early in the spring-, then the soil is worked into a fine texture through cultivation and thus kept until the latter part of July. At tills time a seeding of clover, millet, rape or rye and hairy vetch should be made. The crop thus put In is allowed to occupy the ground until the following spring,’when it is plowed under. The borne vineyard should be plowed or the soil spaded about the vines, and all weed growth suppressed during -the active growing season. Usually frequent hand hoeing will suf­ fice to accomplish this end. Grapevines ■ over a wide range of country are responding with increased growth and productiveness through the use of nitrate of soda scattered about tlm vines in early spring Just as leaf growth is starting. The usual treat­ ment per vine is six ounces of the ma­ terial. Some commercial growers tise twice this quantify per vine with good results. _ It might be we|I to begin with tlie smaller amount and gradual­ ly increase it if occasion ,requires. (©, 1926.

EVERYDAY FOODS . When von have a nice slice of ham and wish to serve It a litiie'different, try: . ... Ham en Cas­ serole.—T a k.e a t h | c k s I i c e ’of ham, wipe and re­ move the outside edges of fat, put into a.frying pan, cover with tepid' water and let stand for several hours. Prepare sufficient potatoes thinly sliced, for tlie family. Put a thick layer of potatoes in a casserole and cover with the ham. Pour over enough milk to cover the potatoes and cover, cook slowly In a moderate I oven for two hours. Season with pepper and salt If needed Uefore taking from the oven. * Angel Food Pudding.—When fresh eggs are plentiful, this makes a de­ lightful pudding and it is not expen­ sive. Bake an angel food In a large sheet. Cut into rounds or oblongs and dip in fondant and cool. Serve with crushed strawberry sauce, fresh or canned. If cttinied, -the juice may be strained and the sauce thickened a little with flour and butter cooked to­ gether. Belmont Minced Chicken.—Melt one- fourth of a cupful of butter and add one-fourth cupful of flour, stir until well blended,, then pour on gradually while stirring, one .end one-half cupfuls of chick eh. stock. Bring to the boiling point, season with one and one-half teaspoonfnls of salt and a teaspoonful of paprika.1 Add one cupful of cream.- one cupful of mir.ced chicken, two- thirds of a cupful of cooked sweet­ breads cut into culms, one-half talile- spoonfuf of truffles or chicken livers finely minced. Ij-t stand In a double boiler to heat. Serve in a dish gar­ nished with a border of mashed1 po­ tato ; brown in the oven before serv­ ing. Orange P’s.—B ike a shell of rich pastry and heap ISto it sliced oranges- that Iuive been standing in sugar un­ til well sweetened. Cover wfth whipped cream or floating island and serve. Tlie juice from the'fruit will- need to be drained. For shortcake, the juice "will be sufficient to moisten the cake well. Apple Pancakes.—Mix and sift to­ gether two cupfuls of flour, four tea- spoonfuls of baking powder and one teaspoonful of salt. Add one and one. fourth etipfuls of milk, one tablespoon- fid of fat, two tablespoonfuls of sugar. M ilk -P ro d u cin g C o w Is E n titled to G ood F eed ; In order to be most profitable, all. live stock must be fed for a definite 1 purpose: : For instance, a dry beef cow can be maintained yery success­ fully and • very,. cheaply r on coarse., cheap feed' such as corn fodder,, corn silage, .hay and straw. It would be a .waste 1Of' money, ,to feed sucli a, cow any considerable amount, of grain. A cow producing, inilk through the win­ ter months, however.: requires a good' grain ration liberally fed in addition io a liberal supply of good roughage and it would be just as much,a waste of money not to gjve this grain tu the cow In milk as it would be to give-, ft to the dry cow that doesn't need' it. Likewise there are proper feeds and1, proper amounts of feed, required by every type of live stock and the most economical arid profitable feed­ ing practice is to give each type of animal the kind ,and am ount' of feed needed by that type of animat. .

Tht unsightly disease which affects the legs of fowls, causing them to swell and become distorted, is due to a mite; a small insect which is -simi­ lar In- appearance to that which causes scab in sheep. It is roundish- oval and semi-transparent, about one eight-hundredth of an inch in' length, appearing, when magnified 400 di­ ameters, about half an inch long. Be­ neath the scales there are spongy, scabby groxy.ths, In which the eggs and pupae of the mites are to be seen In great numbers. The pupae are very similar Jn shape to mature mites, blit, are very much smaller, appear­ ing, when xdewed with' the above- mentioned power, about one-tenth of ari ineli in length. The disease, being of a similar character to the scab In sheep,' or the mange in dogs and cat­ tle, may be cured by the same treat­ ment. Foxvls were cured of tiiis dis­ ease, .before accurately knowing the cause,, by applying to the legs a mix­ ture of lard with que-twentieth part of carbolic acid. This should be ap­ plied with a stiff brush, such as one of tliose Sold with bottles of mucilage. A very small painter's sash-brush would answer tlie purpose^; But some­ thing must be used by" which the medicated grease can be applied thor­ oughly to the crevices between the scales. A mixture of equal parts of lard or sweet-oil and kerosene will be equally as effective as the carbolic acid mix­ ture. It is probable that Tard', or oiT alpne, xvould be effective, but the kerosene more easily penetrates be- txveen the scales and the carbolic add is sure death to the parasites. The remedy being- so simple; it will be inexcusable if this disagreeable affec­ tion is.suffered to1 remain in a flock: while, however, one fowl is troubled with it, it xvill certainly spread, as the mites will burroxv beneatli the scales of the other fowls. If precautions are generally used, the parasite can be exterminated. Whenever affected’ foxvls are sent out, the. disease- goes wfth them. OEmrRcfei*'..

The larg­ est pulTets, as measured by their riiaxlf mum W eight for the year, laid'eggs that averaged • the heaviest for the year. Tliidr is an important consideration because In the past, early maturity, as indicated by a small number of days from the date of hatcli to date of first egg, has been emphasized. It' is quite natural to expect that the. pullets that begin laying early xveigh less when they start to lay than those that take a longer time to mature.- Rapid bodily maturity is, therefore, as< essential’ Us rapid sexual maturity, as Indicnted' by the laying of the first egg- NO vwrreTation was found to. exist between: the- size of the pullet arid; her yearly production. The large [Iullet1 IayIhg a- large egg mould seem, desir­ able.' Tlle large pullet, however, ma­ tures too. slowly and Is a less efficient egg producer. Efficient management calls for pullets of medium size, ma­ tured- normally, both bodily and- sex;' ually. Tlie Indications are that such pullets have the best chance of being1 producers of standard eggs as weir as- tHn equal chance of being high, pro, ducers: ■ " .

Now, however, all sections are open to automobile travel and the State will this year have a larger influx of tourists than it has ever known. Our people are shortly to be brought into realiza tion of the value of the tourist crop The visitors the coming Summer are' going to leave enough money in ' N orth Carolina to pay for all the road construction that has been done and leave something over on account of more roads.

There was a signin' a' savings bank window the other iday which said: "If you dream castles in the air, save and put a foundation under them.” . Once there was a young man who had always dreamed of being weal­ thy. As a boy He pictured himself dressed height of fashion, snappyiiut^to?; his clothes, and all that, walking down Main street. People on the sidewalks.wouid point him out,'saving, ”Yes, there’s Sam Green, young- fellow, but sm art Yes. sir.", sm art. Owns that big house on :th'e hill, and has got a good pile salted down already; Must be worth $1 0 0 ,0 0 0 ” So Sam, as an initial step toward wealth., saved, and after -a time reached his first goal, the $1,000 goal after which, ’tis said the money just grows. But about this time Sam got a girl, and then he wanted to make a splurge. He wasn’t going to take her into any little two by four house; he was going to have that housd on the hiil. So Sam looking around for ways to help that $ 1 OOO grow, and like many a thrifty, but too impatient young man, bought wildcat stock- And the $1,000 was gone on the hill all the rest. To return to the ad in the bank window, "If you -dream castles in the air, save and put a foundation under them .” But be sure the foundation is a solid one.—Ex. Hard. To Prize Loose. In January, 1921, about two months before he went out of office, President Wilson appointed A. T. Willoughby; a Democrat, postmaster at Ahoskie, ;.H ertford country.;. Al­ though there has been a"’ Republican admihistFatioji. at Washington for five years Willonghbv was allowed to serve out his four-year term and has served another extra years under President Coolidge. The Republicans have about de­ cided thatviive years is long e'npugh for the Ahoskie to serve under a Republican administration and have caliejj for a chajige. A civic 1 service examination will be held.? March--16. to secure an eligible list and we trust that, three good Repuolicans, if there are SUUh in Ahoskie,. will take the examination and that one of . them wili secure the appointment. The Democrats of that town, and section' express surprise that .Wil­ loughby is to be disturbed and can’t understand it seems why' He should not hold the office for life. JuS tre verse the order if'you please. ; Were there a 'Demtjcratic Fresident in Washington no Republican would be allowed to be. allowed to be post­ master in North CarMina or hold any other federal office , any longer than :the water got hot. The Democrats are too hungry for political pie to let such a prize slip thru their grasp. We' believe the victors belong the spoils and we trust not many, moons will be allow­ ed to pass until Mr. Willoughby will be asked to vacate the postoffice at. Ahoskie and look for another 'job Union Republican. • 1 7. 1 9 2 6 NUM BER Fine for catarrh . when melted in a spoon or snuffed up the nose and Tapors: inhaled* Head and Chest Colds Relieved In a New Way A 'Salve- w hich :Relea*e»r- Medicated Vapor* when Applied Over . -TJiraBt and Chest.

Robert Ormerod, who tells the tale. Is talking to Peter Corlaer, chief of the trad­ers, and; man of enormous strength, when Darby McGrawp Irish bonded boy, brings news that a pirate ship is “off the Hook.” An old sea, captain an­nounces he has been chased by the notorious pirate, Captain Rip-Rap. The older Ormerod tells Robert the pirate is Andrew . Murray, his • (Robert's) .great- unde; commanding the :plrate ship, the Royal James; Murray is an ardent Jacobite. Next day Robert and Darby ,encounter a one-legged sailor, " John Silver. Robert meets a young woman from a Spanish frigate .who is. seeking her father, Colonel O’Donnell. Murray with a force of sailors visits tho Ormerod house. He announces his inten­tion of carry Jug ..off ,Robert, by force, if necessary, promising him a great future. The Royal James and the Walrus, the latter com­manded by Flint, Murray’s part­ner in piracy; appear. Murray, Robert and. Peter., board . the James. Murray offers Flint a share In • the loot- or a Spanish, treasure ship if he will coropeiv ate with him.. Flint insists Rob­ert be left with him as. a host­age, while Murray, in the Royal James, takes the treasure ship. b y A rth u r D; H ow den Sm ith Copynght-by Arthur D. Howden South • ...— : WNU ServIce C H A P T E R V li^ C o n tin u e d “I was on the other side of Africa vrben I first had- word Prince Charles had raised the -AVhlte Cockade in Scotland in the ’45. I sailed-for home, as you have heard, and whs many months too late] to be of service. . B ut I established touch with friends in Prance who work lo r the. _cause, and so learned that'the-good work was > going merrily on. AU tliat is wanted for another rising is money—gold!” " He paused, and a slow, • strange smile shadowed his face and he drew a finger across the map on the table. , “I said I would tell you a Story,’’ he went on. “But after all ’tis only a dream—a wicked • old man’s dream, Robert. ’Tis so you think of me, I know—and your father—and Peter there—and—I wonder what the little maid you . spoke with would think I Or the poor, thronelcss old king who huddles ’over his brazier for warmth In the dreary palace In Rome that is all he has left of his majesty! Or Prince Charliei who flits back and forth from France to the Low coun­ tries, scheming and plotting and al­ ways curbed for lack of—gold! “Gold! We stumble for lack of it In every enterprise. With sufficient of it you may upset kingdoms, buy pardons, obtain- patents and. honors . and place. ’Tis a definite substance, mark you, hard and shining and heavy In the hand—not. such thistle-down as dreams are made o’. “When was the thought born? I cannot say. Flint and I had often sought the yearly treasure ship, but never had sight of her. Then one day the idea came, to m e'to utilize my Jacobite friends In France and Spain. A bribe, which I supplied,. procured for O’Donnell, already an officer on the regular establishment of the Span- Ish forces, appointment as an in­ spector of fortifications on the ports on the Main. His forefinger explored, the chart before us aiad came to rest upon a - dot on the flank Of the narrow neck of land which joins the two; Americas. “There is Porto Belloi which was the port of the old treasure galleons and discarded as such by the Span­ iards after Morgan ' sacked it." But later they restored and strengthened the fortifications, although in the late, w ar our Admiral Vernon carried it by surprise. At Giat time' Gartagena.wis. the treasure center, and when Vemon attempted it he was repulsed with loss.; Two years since the coiihcil of. the. Indies' decided to resume sail­ ings from Porto Bello, !which .is; the' most advantageously situated.-, of fall ports, oh Uie Main for the collection of .the!.ireasure.. ; , “See! ’Tis’ about midway betwixt Mexico and Peru, and the mines of Veragua ; are at .its back door. The treasures are fetched south from La Yera Cruz by a ship! under escort Of- the Garda Costas ..and transferred at- Porto ' Bello .to ,the ship for Spain/ which puts forth- about , the beginning ©r'middle of- September/ 3.-. ' 1 “This; is a .strong ship and . well manned,, but the. Spaniards. ha ye been taught by centuries"- of. ‘experience, to accept no risk for her.!,H er identity/ is never known in advance; "even to her captain, He sails Jrorn Cadiz,fpi; the Main under sealed orders which he doth not open until mid-Atlantic is passed, and- these - orders -do but -.carry. him to/ Porto. BelJd.” ' VThen' how shall you ’have word of her sailing I broke-in, swept -off my feet by the; .rush; , of- this !amazing nar­ rative. -......................... •---------- “That is O’Donnell’s task. He will reach Porco Bello during the summer and be so concerned for the sjate of the fortifications that he’ll refuse to ,leave until he has iput theu/in de­ fensible oonditibn. AVhIlst lie is there he) will receive dispatches-from Spain summoning him ,home oil urgent af­ fairs. He -will'elect to-embark upon the treasufev ship because she is large and commodious' and. likewise safe: And thanks to his: ,position, he will have accurate - knowledge som e days In advance of-her sadipg. date. AVhen he has obtained this .-fact he will-com. vey it secretly^ to - one -Diego Salvez, an agent I- matntain In ,.that -port Diego, by O’Donnell’s help,- will' get- out of town and put to sea- In a fast iloop he hath in a little river near where was the1 ancient town of- Nbm- bre de Dios, so that we shall have sure tidings of the SantissimaL Trini­ dad’s coming and be" prepared .for her.” • . “But what, of her course?" I -scruti­ nized the map. “There are .three sep­ arate exits from the Caribbean into, the Atlantic.” K . “You have clapped on to fhe nub of our problem,” said Murray: ..-VTwas the piece of information I was u tm o st pains to - Obtain.' The SantiSsima Trinidad will head for the Mona pas­ sage. I will show you why. The .first aim of the Spaniards is to conceal her voyage; she sails a course which keeps her as'mucli as possible in'open ,seas.- And. the best exit for that pur­ pose is the opening between Hispan­ iola’ and Porto Ricol : “My intent is that the-Royal James shall ply off the westerly mouth of the-passage-from about the end of August;- avoiding ail intercourse with shipping- and keeping as far, tout to sea as is. practicable y When JDIego appears we will restrict thb spaee of our- beat;;, and ’twill/be impossible for the treasure ship/to escape us. If sho: runs we can’ catch ,her,/ and at fighting I can take any don. ’under a. shlp-o’-the-line.” ! ".. . .“So much I' heard you declare to Colonel, O’Donnell aboard Hie; brig,” , I-said. “But what comes next? You take- the.. Santissima Trinidad—and then?” r .-. j ; He moved his' forefinger over the surface of the map and brought it to' rest In front of a tiny outlihe’skefcfied in ink on the expanse of sea east of Cuba and somewhat to the north 'o f” Hispaniola.- Northward of this spot stretched, the far-flung myriads of the Bahamas. " ’ ' . ' ‘ “That is what you have heard Flint 'and me refer- to as the Rendezvous; and Spyglass island,” he answered. “It has other names, I believe. Some have called it Treasure island, al­ though I know :.of no treasure upon it. ”Tis said that Eidd discovered it, and certes, others of the old-time buc­ caneers were Woht to maintain them­ selves, there. "W e are bound thither now to refit and careen, and when we have the treasure safe under hatches we will return to the island to divide it and- concert-arrangements for de­ livering their share • to Colonel O’Donnell’s friends” 'L “What will Flint say to your fetch­ ing in-strangers to your hiding place?” I asked. A furrow deepened betwixt my great-unele’s lambent ,.eyes. - “He’ll not like it, Robert,” he ad­ mitted. “I have O’Donnell’s word to betray none of our secrets, and indeed ’tis to his own interest to keep hidden his part in this affair; but Flint may well make trouble. . ’Tis a determined dog, and a greedy. Look you, boy, will' you- stand by me In the affair? For: the giri’s sake, if for no other reason?’.’ “Why /n o t leave her aboard the treasure ship?” He regarded me askance. “It may be we must sink—” I started’up. - “Now,' th at: IR ha’ naught to “ do with! I ha? told you I’d,fight If you butchered the .defenseless." He waved me back. . “Peace, peace! We cannot" carry off ail the Spaniards in any case.' and—” He hesitated. “—O’Donnell must be protected,” he concluded. ; !Against., what?”.. . ..... ...................... ‘Wagging tongues. I tell- you his part must never-be; known. ' The San- tissima TrinidJad disappears, and with her the treasure and all her company. There’s no other way.” ‘Take the ,treasure, , if- you must,” I retorted; “but fio not stain your; hands with th^blood pf men who .haye not harmed you.” !- - ? - ‘I must slay some of them, ,to. all probability,” returned my greaUunifle. “What difference between ;-1hat:; and slaying all?” ", - -1' .

It* is im portant,to relate in this connection that’navy I blue has be'en rediscovered by th e ; Parisian fashionist. Furthermore, there is con­ siderable interest manifested in the. tuck-in-blouse to be worn w ith'these suits, also very smart, carefully but­ toned waistcoats. And again the: lin­ gerie touch is relied upon in many in­ stances to feminize fiiese conventional tailleurs. . Suits favored most by tlie Parlsienne are excessively simple as illustrated herewith. -,The last word In French tailored modes emphasizes the su­ premacy of the slim short-coat boyish 's..'-?-) t\: ,. i descrlbe tlie fascinations of-the, pre­ possessing French milliriery ^creations which will .top. milady’s smart tailleur. rA record season -is ; foretolii y.by stylists for -smart ; neckwear !(,and clever accessories. 1 “ 1Nuff Saidi!” Pre­ paredness/is the. word.' ,Every'!wonian of fashion should accumulate' in -ad­ vance a supply of pretty things which add chic to the costume. Her two-piece tuxedo or tiolero suit is going to call for a frilly vestee set( or a strictly tailored waistcoat. Note1 In .this^picture to the right, what a smartness the tuxedo takes on when worn with a white crepe’de,’chine,vest bound wftli navy blue silk. Where there is a will there is a 'way “to own just such a practical and charming costunie accessory its' this. ' Kot only do the L TWO PARIS MODELS type, usually with notched lapel and plain sleeve but sometimes with softer shawl collar. Also the tuxedo lapel is approved on street types. Some jack­ ets have rounded corners, some square, some have one button, some have two and the double-breasted effect is also sponsored. ' Skirts are short and narrow, wrap­ arounds being emphasized, that is if they are not of the plaited version. The introduction of white pique vestees, plaid silk blouses or waist­ coats conventionally tailored of pastel colored suede cloth or flannel gives a note of individuality. Frilly-jabots also lend a note which, is distinctly feminine in its charm. The vogue for the tailored suit has certainly renewed interest in the sep­ arate blouse. It Ir even hinted that neckwear dejiartments carry it^gis of this character, but those who glory In home sewing will do well to spend leisure moments In making more than one dainty yestee of this character for the future. If aspiring to the. perfect tailor-made, why not; fashion a waistcoat of pastel- colored flannel, or broadcloth? Of course it must be very precisely but­ toned up the front, even including the ciose-fitting choker collar. i ,Having once glimpsed the handsome flesh-colored satin tailored vestee sets, there will be ne peace of mind for the woman who appreciates effective de­ tails, until she becomes the happy pos­ sessor of one just such. This, too, can be made at. home or purchased at will. Indeed, neckwear departments are fea­ turing handsomely tucked, plaited and SHOWING ;VESTEE ANDiJAfiOT the tuck-in style may come back.

T.hls means considerable loss through a corresponding reduction in the ,quan­ tity of marketable eggs produced. The causes of soft-slielled eggs are well known to the well-informed poultry- man. He. understands that the ap­ pearance of' such an egg is an indica­ tion of improper feeding and he gov­ erns himself accordingly. The yolk of the egg is f ally formed when it .breaks from the hen's ovary and drops into tlie funnel-shaped mouth of the oviduct. It is at this point that fertilization of the egg takes place, if the egg is to be fertilized, and probably within a few minutes of the breaking loose of the yolk. In about three . hours the : formation of the thicker albumen is completed, this taking place in the upper and central sections of the oviduct. The third and last section of this organ secretes the shell membrane, and it also requires about three hours, for the shell to form therein. By the -expansion and contraction of the walls of * the oviduct the egg Is forced for­ ward into the shell .gland, where the lime is deposited, and wltliin 12 to. 24 hours the egg is laid. One can readily see that, anything that would have a tendency to make the egg pass too rapidly, through this portion of the oviduct wojild Ca use the hen to lay soft-shelled eggs. The first' and' usual cause of soft- shelled eggs is that the bird is too fat. The muscular movement of the oviduct Is hindered by layers of fat, and in­ stead of the egg being control’ed by Arm - muscles it merely slips through a flabby mass without setting its shell on. The difficulty will vanish if the birds are made to scratch hard in a 1 clean, dry straw litter ftir all their grain, anil the ration fed is not over- fattening. Sprouted outs will be a valuable food, as they are less fat­ tening than, either wheat or corn. In some cases it might do well to omit for a few days all mashes, especially moist mashes, if many soft-shelled eggs are coming through. T|jf. second gourde of soft-shelled eggs is lack of lime in the lien's ra­ tion. In this case the shell-secreting part of the oviduct fails to do its work because of lack of material. Oyster shell broken fiiie enough' for the hens to eat or dry granulated bone are good sources for the lime required. It is claimed by some poul- iryinen’tluit the use of limestone, grit also helps to supply material to the lien. It is often recommei ded that old plaster or mortar be broken or .ground^ fairly fine and thrown Into a box In the pen for the birds to eat.

S- '(Vickers, poultry extension spe­ cialist ^at the OIiiO State university, in a letter sent ft, tlie 1,070 Oliio farm­ ers who keep flock records in co-oper­ ation, with the university. Indications are that these, poultry- raen will average 130 eggs or more per hen for the year..The state average is about seventy eggs. In Medina county the high • flock made a net profit of, $3.38 on eacii hen housed at .the start of the year,"while the low flock' made forty-two cents a hen. The low man cannot possibly maintain the same standard of living tlie high limn <an. . He has a problem to meet if 'he wants more of these worldly goods. • P o u l t r y H i n t s • Eggs can be produced cheaply only from high-producing stock.*. * • NO one grain supplies all tlie feed- eleyierits needed fpr egg production in the right proportion.

Though IJe was leaving the earth and its struggles, He made provision for the dear ones left heliind. (2) “I thirst” (v. 28). As the sinner’s representative: He suffered not only untold agony of mind, but of body as well. (3) “It is finished” (v. 30).

Iu the mat­ ter Of strikes especially, the Pre­ sident’s rabbit-foot is working right along. • H e first came into nation/- at preminence in' connection with the Boston police strike, and it is now ; fairly well established that the mayor of Boston had settled that situation before Governor Coo- Iidge did anything. More recent­ ly has come the great anthracite coal strike. In spite <5f urgent so­ licitation, the President refused to intervene and now the coal strike is settled, and the man who is cre­ dited by the " miners with settled, refers’ tbe credit to the President.

W e are of the opinion that Calvili-Coolidge is President of the. United States today for one reason, namely, that the people felt he was the one man in.the race who was certain to-do nothing rash.

Isn’t it about time to leave off finding fault with the young thing kpown as the flapper and address ourselves to more seriour reflec tions 011 what it is that maizes this type of girl as prevalent a s ’she is though” tQ be? The flapper is as much the logi­ cal product of her home surround­ ings as any more sensible boy or girl is. And when you blame the flapper for whatever shortcomings are ascribed to her, it is necessaiy, in telling the whole story to trace her back directly to the conditions under which she grew up. In' whatever she shows a laxity or a divergence from standards set for the non-flapper type of girl, it will in ali probability be found that this young lady was suite as much sinned, against as she sinning. In a home in which flapperish ideals and ways can not prevail, it would be a difficult thing indeed for any child to grow up to become what many of'us believe the flapper to be. The so-called emptiness of her head no doubt indicates that whatever is necessary for the men­ tal and moral growth of the child was somehow lacking in the flap­ per’s home life —E x.

C. i l l B y A R T H U R D . H O W D E N S M I T H aWNUSeiTle* SYNOPSIS The story opens In New York, about the middle of the Eight­eenth century. Robert Ormerod,. who' telis the tale, is talking to Peter Corlaer, chief of the trad­ ers, and man of enormous strength, when Darby McGraw, Irish bonded boy, brings news that a pirate ship is "oft the Hook." An old sea captain an­nounces he has been chased by the notorious pirate, ' Captain Rip-Rap. The older Ormerod tells Robert the pirate is Andrew Murray, his (Robert’s) great- uncle, commanding the pirate ship, the Royal James. Murray is an ardent Jacobite. Robert meets a young woman from a Spanish frigate who is seeking her father, Colonel O'Donnell. Murray with a force of sailors visits the Ormerod house. He announces his intention of car­rying off .Robert, by force, if necessary, promising him a great future. The Royal James and the Walrus, the latter command­ed by Flint, Murray’s partner in piracy, appear. Murray, Robert and Peter board the James. Mur­ ray offers Flint a share In the loot of a Spanish treasure ship if he will co-operate with him. Flint insists Robert be left with him as a hostage, while Murray, in the Royal James, takes the treasure ship. The pirate ves­ sels arrive at their rendezvous. C H A P T E R V III— C o n tin u ed —9— “By tlie-------------------------------, but I hoped ’twas th a t ----------------Flint come a-seekin’ mischief," he complained. ,“Where is Captain Murray?" I an­ swered. , “In his cabin.” And in the same mild manner he continued to his men: “To your stations. Remember cap’n’s orders. Now these two are aboard, ye'll fire at any-boat that ap­ proaches and challenge afterward.” The negro lackeys stood aside as we came to. the cabin entrance under the I poop; the door was open. Down the !dark tunnel of the companionway with its stateroom doors on either hand Peter and I could see m ygreat- uncle sitting at the table in the main cabin, a glass of wine .at his elbow, a chart spyead out before him. I recounted briefly our conversation qvlth Flint and the determination Peter and I had reached in consequence. He nodded agreement with it. “Ton did quite right, Robert. Peter did not exaggerate the dangers inher­ ent in the situation." “You will excuse me,” he went on, "if I. return to my studies. I have much upon my mind.” We bade him good night and went to our staterooms, weary enough from the unwonted exercise of rowing. As I shut my door I noted that he was measuring distances in the Caribbean with calipers, and jotting figures upon the margin of the chart. I In the morning all hands were oc­ cupied with the task of careening the ship. ’Twas when the work was pro­ ceeding satisfactorily that my great- uncle bade Martin tell off a , dozen hands who were good shots and call away the longboat. "I marvel that you dare to leave the James in this defenseless condi­ tion," I said to him as the longboat pulled off'up the anchorage past the silent bulk of the Walrus. “There need not necessarily be danger this afternoon,” he said. “ ’Tis all quiet ashore, aDd I doubt if there is a man sufficiently sober aboard the W alrus to carry a carton of pow­ der from the mqgazine.” . “But by evening they’ll ha’ slept it off,” I insisted. “True, and with it their lust for bloodshed—for the time being, at any rate. Our problem then will be to •turn Flint’s mind to some undertak­ ing which will divert his attention and occupy him until we need no. longer be concerned for his whimsies.” We. landed south of the first river, . below where Flint’s party had held their carouse, and proceeded inland through a wooded valley, with hills rising to right and left of us and the Spyglass towering In the distance. The day was very clear, and the moun­ tain’s summit was a gray con'e against, the blue of the sky. Even our sullen, . hangdog escort of seamen became al­ most cheery under the. influence of their changed surroundings, and with . the sight of their first goat they began to whoop and shout like schoolboys. Murray, despite his age, was as spry as the youngest of us, and he never wasted a shot. . ' , - We had maintained a brisk pace on our wanderings, and we reached the site of the spring well before sunset. My great-uncle surveyed the situation with a calculating eye, esti­ mated the stand of timber on the hill’s sides, and exclaimed that there was no neighboring eminence whence an enemy could, command it. “ 'Tis all you have asserted it to be,” lie said. “Moreover, it gives me an Idea of a way in which we may occupy tlie energies of Captain Flint and his Iambs for the ensuing weeks of our stay.” A thread of smoke, trickled up be­ side the mouth of the rivulet in the woods along the estuary, and I indi­ cated it to him: “There is Flint,” I said. “Yes,” he replied absently, and kept on. ^ The shadows were lengtliening as we stepped out of the forest into- a glade on the river’s bank. Several additional fires had been kindled, and around each were huddled groups of pirates much the worse for the last' night’s drinking-bout. jolm Silver was the only man who appeared to have any animation left in him. ’Twas he first saw us, and evidently spoke to. Flint, who sat with Bones and several other cronies' at the smallest of the fires.- He swung ,to­ ward us as Flint rose unsteadily and tacked in his wake. “Come a-visitin’, captain?” Silver inquired ^cheerfully. “Mighty kind; o' ye, sir, seein’ as how most o’ our lads is a bit the worse for liquor and, blood-lettin’. My duty to ye, Master Ormerod. I hopes I sees you and your friend well?" “Blood-lettin?” repeated Murray, ig­ noring the balance of his . remarks. “The old story,, eh? Well, well! ■You'll never learn. How many for the sailmaker’s palm and needle?” "Three, captain. And main lucky we are as—” Flint lurched up . beside him. “Stow that, John,” growled liis cap­ tain. “I’li do the talkin’.- What’s your trouble, .Murray?” My great-uncle took a pinch of snuff with his inimitable knack of express­ ing acute disgust without moving a muscle of his face. “I have been a-hunting,” he replied. "Shooting for the pot. We stopped on the way to our boat ..to pass the time o’ day with you, Flint.” Flint snorted. •“Time o’ day I H—11 ’Tain’t like you to take the trouble.” “I am a person of most uncertain proclivities,” replied my great-uncle. “I hear from Silver that last night’s episode was accompanied by the usual fatalities.” "Three,” assented Flint. “Two o’ ’em could be spared—lousy dogs. The other was Toby Welsh, as stout a fel­ low as we had.” “Not bad for one night’s work,” commented Murray. Flint was obviously in no very bel­ ligerent mood; he could scarce stand. But he flamed, up at this. “Aye, and what d’ye expect? How many months did ye tell me I must bide here wi’ a crew that knows naught but how to brew the devil’s broth? And how many men d’ye think will be alive by the end of the time? Gut me, but ’twill be like the song we sing o’ the Dead Man’s Chest!” "I fear it will,” agreed my great- uncle. “Unless you take measures to prevent it.” “Measures? There’s a deal to be done in keeping twelveseore men from fighting on this chunk o’ earth and rock!” "There’s your ship to be cleaned,” said my great-uncle tentatively. “I’d ha’ mutiny on my hands did I call for it! They’re all for a run ashore, and there’ll be no working them aboardship until they ha’ had their fill o’ woods and mountains.” “Ah!” said my great-uncle. “Doubt­ less that is so. Well, if they must remain ashore a time, is it not in their own interest to erect themselves some shelter from the elements? We •have often said that some day we should build ourselves a fort on the island.” "We ha’.” “I canie upon the. ideal spot this afternoon—a sand hillock overgrown ,with fine pines ancf’oaks eastward of tlie' swamps. It hath; the airs from the ocean, a good prospect of the an­ chorage and the pearer .waters, and there is a spring a t the very top.” “And I'm to do the work!” snarled Flint. “Your men are to do the work,” cor­ rected-M urray. “I should gladly as­ sist them in it but for the fact that my own crew will be'occupied aboard­ ship during the duration of bur stay. We of the Royal James, I may point out, are laboring in the common in­ terest no less than your people will be if they undertake the construction of the fort.” “Blast me for a ----------- fool if I care two —------------ for the com­ mon interest!” cried Flint. “But ’tis true there is need of the fort, and if the men will bide ashore they should ha’ a roof to their heads and a better place to camp than down here in the river Vaporsf I'll see what’s to be done, Murray.” • “You’ll not regret it,” replied my great-uncle. “I shall be . glad to lend you aught I possess. In the' way of tools or advice.” The building of tlie hilltop fort ap­ pealed'^ to some boyish strain sub­ merged beneath the surface villainy of Flint’s Scoundrels. They Wentv to their task with positive enthusiasm, clearing the hillock of timber, sawing and squaring. the logs and erecting jl substantial house of die more mas­ sive logs and after that an open stock­ ade or paling of sapling stakes six feet high. ‘ Murray’s personal object was al­ ready accomplished. . The Royal James was back upon an even, keel, her bottom scraped clean, her hull fresh-painted inside and out, her rig­ ging overhauled and canvas In order. Copyricht by ATthiir t>. Howden Smith spars tested and a weak topmast re­ placed, guns varnished, stores checked and stowed, sufficient great-cartridge for three actions prepared by the gun­ ner, ballast aboard and distrubuted with a careful eye for sailing trim. . “As street and proper as though she was just from the hands of the dock­ yard fitters at Portsmouth,” was Murray’s comment on an evening about the beginning of August. "The tide ebbs on the break of dawn. I purpose sailing then.” “And you must deliver the bpdy of your hostage beforehand,” I answered as disagreeably as I could. “Even so,” he acknowledged. “ ’Tis regrettable, Robert, yet the time will come. I venture to predict, when you will look back with pride upon tlie inconvenience you suffered.” ‘TH accept the inconvenience if I- may escape the rascals alive,” I re­ torted. “Of that you need have no doubts,” he said earnestly. “I shall accom­ pany you, and you may hear my part­ ing instructions to Flint. Friend Peter, will you indulge me for the space of half an hour whilst I visit the Walrus with my nephew?” “Neen,” answered Peter, and pushed away from the table. “I go-too.” “No, no—” "I go too.” “But naught was said of two hos­ tages—” “If Bob goes, I go,” insisted the Dutchman. “Ja.” - Murray shook his head. “For you I might not be responsi­ ble. Peter.” “I will be responsible for myself,” said Peter. “I, go to der W alrus or you go oudt der window.” My great-uncle stared at him for a moment, then burst into laughter. “By gad, you would! And after, ‘T here Is Flint," I Said.• '"“'I become captain in my place, no doubt You are unmat-eiiable, Peter. W hat do you say, nephew?” “I’d not have Peter risk his throat with mine,” I answdred uncomfort­ ably.” “I go wit’ you. Bob,” repeated the Dutchman. , “You see!’’ cried Murray. “ ’Tis useless to object. Go with you he will. Well, yoii’ll have company at least—and I' shall lack a companion whose presence is not .the less valu­ able Yor his silence. A good friend is Peter, Robert. I would . he were mine!” Peter rose. "We go,” he said. "Ja.” On deck Murray had the'longboat called away, and we embarked in si­ lence. ’Twas a hot night, with very little air stirring, and tlie ribald up­ roar on the Walrus was amazingly distinct. The James was like a tomb by contrast. ’ Not a sound came from her, and the pniy lights she showed were in the waist and the main cabin. The Walrus was a blaze of lanthorns from poop to fo'esle, but Murray bailed the deck twice before he had an answer. .“Boat ahoy!” responded a husky voice then. “Why'n ------ don’t ye come aboard?” “ ’Tis Captain Murray to see Cap­ tain Flint,’’ replied my great-uncle calmly. “Aye, aye, sir,” answered the husky voice on a quaver of fear. “We’ll call Iiim directly. Will ye come aboard, sir?” My great-uncle turned to Peter with one foot on the side'ladder, “Are you certain you must go with Robert?” he asked. “I ’can assure you no harm shall come to him.” “Ja, I go/’ My great-uneie’s reply was a shrug of indifference, and Peter and I climbed after him to the deck. The. W alrus was a revelation after the or-- dered discipline of the Royal James. In a word, she was pig-dirty. Her deck was littered with all kinds of rubbish; her rigging was slack and spliced in a fashion which seemed lub­ berly to me, who was a lubber; her canvas was torn, poorly patched and wretchedly furled; boats, barrels; lum­ ber, spare spars and cables lay about in entire confusion. The planks we trod on were slippery with grease. The paint was peeling from the bul­ warks. There w ere spots of rust on the muzzle of a chase gun, which itself was hauled out of its proper position. Flint came swaggering down to us from the poop in a condition which was in harmony with his surround­ ings. Like most of his men, he had discarded coat, shirt, stockings and shoes to accommodate himself to the heat of a tropical summer. His loose canvas trousers, identical with those the seamen wore, were streaked with dirt and tar. His bare calves and forearms were ,covered with dried blood where they had been scratched by brambles'in his shore expeditions; out of the matted hair on his chest was thrust the head of a tiger, most marvelously tatooed in’black and yel­ low. His hair was a lank frame for his saturnine face, stubbly with a week’s growth of beard. “W hat d’ye seek, Murray?” he growled. "Come to look us over?” “I am come to fulfill my contract with you,” replied my great-uncle. “I am sailing with the morning ebb, and I bring you, not one hostage; but two.” Flint stepped closer and scrutinized Peter and me. “Two, eh?” W hat do I want wi’ two?” W hat good’s this fat man to me? He means nothing to you.” “On the contrary,” denied my rela­ tive “Master Corlaer is an old and valued enemy of mine, of whom I have hopes of making in time a friend.” “Weil, he’s no good to m e; gut me If he is!” . "You will take both or none,” said my great-uncle In' the voice like a dripping icicle which he knew so well how to assume. “Nasty, are ye?” rasped Flint. “Blast ye for a—” A light in Murray’s tawny eyes kindled like a flame under the reflec­ tion of the battle-lanthorns which were hung from the lower spars. "Two it is,” Flint ended hastily. ‘‘But ye’ll never see either one o’ ’em if ye don’t make good on your bar­ gain. I ha’ supported much from ye, Murray, but—” “You’ll support more for sufficient gold,”L, rebuked my great-uncle. “Tut, man, I read you like a book. - When we first encountered you were proud to be. mate of a trading brig. I have put you in the way to rank and for­ tune, If you know how to exploit your !opportunities. Hark ye!” “You said seven hundred thou­ sand,” snapped Flint.

The racer , did some quick thinking, and said, “Of course my lights are out They’re out/all over town” ' “That’s right I forgot,” stam­ mered the policeman. “Go ahead.” stantly avoiding their praise. He strolled into the smoking room, pulled out his silver cigarette case—gold was so gaudy—tamped a long, thin cig­ arette reflectively, lit it and walked over to the mirror. He studied him­ self a moment His features stiffened, he bit his lip. Finally! his eyes blazing, he hurled his cigarette case at' the glass. „ --"Liar,” he muttered and turned and walked out of the room.—Notre Dame Juggler. Slam at' Patent Lighter H. G.

I shall endeavor to provide you ade­ quate? reparation. You also, friend Peter. Remember,' we are working for a greater cause than our personal enrichment.” - . He vaulted lightly to the top of the bulwarks and dropped out of sight on the farther side. “Gut [me, but there’s times I think he believes all he says,” swore Flint.

Ha’ ye IeftM ie old devil yon for good?” He nodded his torch of hair at the vague hull of the James. Flint exploded with, raucous laughter.- “ ‘The old devil yen,’ ” be . repeated. “------ 1B& but it takes Darby to put the right word to a man. 'Tis what he is, blaJt him for the —--------—-------- he sets himself up to be!" - Darby proffered him a huge silver beaker of rum. “I fetched this from the cabin after ye, captain,” said the Irish boy In his .wheedling brogue. T roth, say I to meself, if the captain must1 talk with Murray he’ll ha’ a bad taste In the mouth o’ him to be washed out, and I’d best ha’ a sup o’ sugar-juice handy for his needin's.” ' Flint seized the rum, threw back his head and. drained the fiery stuff as if it had been wine. “You said right, my lad,” he an­ swered sourly. “And I’m thinking I’ll maybe need all thefluck that red head o’ yours can bring me. Where’S Billy Bones?” ; “Dhrunk under the cabin table,” re­ turned Darby promptly. “Gut him for the souse he is -A nd Long John?” “ “Sure, captain dear, ’twas yourself sent him ashore to keep the lads up to the fort from carvin’ theirselves.” “So I did. Well, I’ll see to the pris* oners myself then.” “Pris’riers!” protested Darby, wide- eyed. “Och, captain,, ye won’t be hard on Master Bob! He’s as kindly a young gentleman as ever I see— and Peter there is a grand fightin’ feller. Ye should bear to tales they tell o’ his murtherin’ and stayin’ with the red' Injuns.” “I’ll be as hard as they make me be,” returned Flint. “But for tonight I must have them safe.” . / Peter, at my elbow, spoke for the first time. “Ja, ja.” We go. I have a ■ wish to sleep.” “Sleep, is it?” jeered Flint. “That ye shall, my hearty! Come along o’ me.” * He led us aft, the others following, Darby in the rear almost in tears. At the end of a dark- passage Flint unhooked a lanthorn from a wall and one of his men heaved up a trapdoor. Below was a pool of shadows, that scuttled and swayed as if to escape the feeble light. There was an odor, also, none, too pleasant I drew back. “Certes, you could lodge us securely' otlierwhere than this,” I protested. - f4No, no,” answered Flint. “There’s not a door,.aboard hatti^a lock would hold Darby, let alone yon tt^o .I’m sorry- for ye, lad, if It’s no fault o’ yours that you’re here; but for to­ night at least you must lie in- the lazaret Here, ye shall ha’ the lan­ thorn to keep the yats off; and In the morning we’ll manage different.” Peter pushed past me, and took the lanthorn from his hand. “We go, ja,” he squeaked. “Come, Bob,” - I followed ^ him without another word, already' wondering at his ex­ traordinary docility. A hasp clacked home in- a bolt and footsteps thudded away. I sat on the'hottom m ost step of the ladder and peered hopelessly around me as Peter, swinging the lanthorn as high as the low deckrooa allowed, prowled around the limited area of our- prison.' ‘ A black rat as large-as a cat rushed across my feet Squeaks and rus­ tlings sounded in the comers. Peter returned to the ladder-foot deposited the lanthorn on the: floor and plumped himself beside it “What you t’ink, Bob?” - ho said blandly. “Do we §iay or get oudt?” . I frowned at him.

INTERMEDIATE AND' SENIOR TOP­IC—Great,Scenes In John’s Gospel.TOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP- IC •— The Great Teachings of John’s Gospel. Happily we have come to one time at least when the quarterly review Is easy and a pleasure. The teacher's supreme aim should be to make Jesus as real to his pupils as He was to the disciples when here upon earth, for the “W ord/made flesh” is now dwell­ ing among us “full of grace and truth” revealing God (John 1:14, 18). The best way to reveal- the quarter’s Ies- sdlis will be to grasp the central pur­ pose of John in writing his book, gath­ er the central teaching of each sep­ arate lesson and use it in proving the central proposition. John clearly states his purpose in 20:31. Two things are set forth in this verse. • I. That Jesus Is the Christ, the Son of God. 2. That through believing in Him, eternal life is received. It should be the teacliefs aim to es­ tablish this truth and to accomplish this glorious purpose in the lives of all his pupils. January 3.—In this lesson Jesus is- presented as the eternal Word exist­ ing -with God before all worlds, the almighty Creator, the source of light and life, made flesh in order to reveal God to man. January 10.—John the Baptist tes­ tifies that Jesus is the Lamb of God. This truth was certified unto him by a voice from heaven and the descent of the Holy Spirit upon Him (Matt. 3:16, 17). Andrew, Philip and Na­ thanael corroborate John’s testimony by declaring that Jesus is the Messiah of whom Moses and the prophets did w riteM he very Son of _ God. January 17.—Jesus is the bestowef of eternal life. He is the only be­ gotten Son of the Father, who give3 eternal life to those who believe on Him. Since God alone can give life, Jesus is divine. January 24.—Jesus testifies to the Samaritan woman that He is the Messiah. His ability to disclose the secrets of the woman’s heart and life convinces her that He is divine. January 31.—The creative act by which five thousand men, besides wom­ en and children, were fed from a few small loaves ahd fishes, with a .super­ abundance left over, demonstrates the deity of Jesus.- . February 7.—Jesus is divine, be­ cause He opened the eyes of the man born blind. So- ,unusual was this miracle tliat such a thing was never heard of “since-the world began.” The man whose eyes were opened, con­ fessed Jesus and worshiped Him ,as the Son of God. \ February 14-7-Jesus Is the Messiah, the Son of God, because He is the Good fehepherd. In the Old Testa­ ment, Jehovah is set forth as the True Shepherd (Ps. 23,JSzek. 34). The true shepherd devotes his life to the wel­ fare of his sheep, even to the. extent of laying down his life for them. This Jesus did, therefore He Is the promised Messiah. February 21.—Jesus is divine be­ cause at His command, Lazarus, a man dead four days, was raised to life. February 28.—Hndivided love to God is .man’s supreme obligation. The Second Commandment is like unto the First, in that it centers in IoVe. March 7.—Jesus is divine, because H e'came from God and went to_ God (John 13:8). though Jesus tioldly claimed to be the Lord, yet He stooped to/ render the most menial service to His disciples. . March 14—-Jesus ctaimed equality with God and therefore asked His disciples to place their faith In Him as the divine being, just the same as In God.March 21.—Jesus proved his deity by coming forth from the grave. This is the unquestioned seal of His deity.. Water of Life If ye know: what He is preparing for vou ye would be too glad. He will not, it may be, give you a full draught till ye come up to the well-head and drink yea, drink -abundantly, of the bure river of the ivater of life that nroceedeth out from the throne of God and from the Lamb.—Samuel Ruther­ ford. ■ .

In these two- piece Iriterpretatioris genius is intro­ ducing a medley of interesting ideas, placing special emphasis on clever plaitings for the skirt and ingeniously knotted ties for the blouse.: . The accompanying' sketches convey in part an idea of the fine subtleties of creative art which enter into the styling of French two-piece modes. what is the very essence of go'oc! style,' it may be in navy blue, for which a sudden and definite favor is ,evident Says the mode, In regard to the cloth dress ncir spring "It is to flare” and so flare it must if in style it would be. Thus is fashion caught In the very act of being fickle. Whereas but a few' months ago dressmaker and tailor were straining every nerve to keep the hemlirie at its narrowest, to­ day these same interpreters of the mode are intent on devising godeta, / !2 3 J TWO OF THE PARIS MODES The youthful jumper dress to the left carries "atmosphere” of the sea, In that it is made of marine blue serge with a necktie knotted in sailor fash­ ion. There are discreet white braiit. ings on sleeves and pockets. The skirt emphasizes a youthful all- around plaiting. There are many important style- points which invite a careful study In the two-piece dress sketched to the right in the picture. The first thrill­ ing bit of information in regard to this model is that black crepe de chine is selected as the medium for its devel­ opment.

CARBQ ILGENEROUS SOt BOX New Variety of Dasheen Is Out S acram en to o f G reater U n i­ form ity in S iz e a n d Shiape T h a n T r in id a d .. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) A new 'variety of dasheen, the Sacramento,'Wliich has been under ob­ servation and test by the '.’nited States Department of Agriculture for several yearsqnd was distributed two years ago, is being marketed this sea­ son for the first time. • The greater uniformity of the tubers in. size and shape not only makes the Sacramento easier to prepare for market, but gives It a higher value than the Trinjdad variety now generally grown. Third Starchy Vegetable. The development of the dasheen in­ dustry lias given the people of the United States a “ third-, distinctly starchy vegetable that is home grown, the potato and the Siveet potato being the only vegetables -of that nature heretofore commonly grown • In this country. Dasheens have been grown by a gradually increasing number of peo­ ple in the southern states since 1913. rt Was introduced from Porto IlIco a few years earlier for cultivation there, primarily to supplement the small supply of home-grown potatoes. It is believed to have been brought from China to the western hemisphere, per­ haps two or three centuries ago, and has been cultivated under various names in many of the islands- of the IVest Indies. Industry Established. With continued improvement in cultural methods and the development: of newer and better varieties under the direction of the department, the industry has become established. Con-. tinuous effort by growers and others in the South to make the excellence of this fall-maturing vegetable known to winter tourists and care in market­ ing only the best dasheens are cal­ culated to bring, about a largely in­ creased demand. D ifferen ce in Y ie ld o f R ed C lover a n d A lfa lfa Under some soil conditions there is not much difference in yield of red clover and alfalfa. If the surface and subsoil are- both sour, and the dark- colobed soil is not very deep where the clovers must get their food from the decomposing humus, the red clover may make as. much or more growth than alfalfa, because the root system of red clover is a little better adapted to getting food from decaying liumus tliaa is alfalfa. But when the sub­ soil contains the proper mineral food supply or when it lias been applied to the soil! the alfalfa will make much more growth under comparable con­ ditions than red clover. When soil condition are favorable for its growth the alfalfa makes two or three times as mucli yield of Iiay as red clover. Alfalfa is the better feed. It usual­ ly contains, more mineral food ele­ ments and is richer in protein and vitamines than red clover, and hence will enable a cow to produce more mint as well as making more bone and tissues on growing animals. After one gets a taste of growing and feed­ ing alfalfa he is not satisfied to go back to red or any other clover va­ riety.

Ttie best yields of both seed and hay have been secured with drilled seed- ings. Tlie best rate for drilling Was two bushels per acre. This allows for a thorough harrowing and still, leaves, enough plants for a htgli yield. Plant­ ing from early May until .Tune I gave equally good results. Control of weeds was found to be the most important point in success­ ful culture. It Is suggested that soy­ bean-ground be plowed before'the corn ground and then harrowed fre­ quently to kill as many wedtls as pos­ sible.

Fall plowing is best for the crop, but emergency crops ;often call for spring plowing. The soil should be fairly-firm for best results. It is im­ portant that the seed be put in as early in the spring as it Is possible to work the land. The peas especially do best in cold weather and will make the best growth and the best quality of hay when early sown. In these days of the disk and shoe drill the seed should be sown^two to three inches deep after the soil ’ has been mellowed by thorough disking. The peas could well go deeper but the oats do best when sown not more than an inch and a half to two inches in depth. And since both are usually seeded with the same' implement, peas can go at the shallower depth. One to one and one-half bushels of peas should be sown with a bushel and a half of oats per acre. After sowing the oats and peas no attention heed be given the crop until ready to cut for hay, Tiiis will be in ten or twelve weeks after sowing. Tlie, crop should be cut when the oats ,are In the milk and the peas just begin­ ning to form in the pods. Owing to the green. ■ succulent nature of the crops, difficulty is sometimes experi­ enced in curing the crop on low, heavy land when large growth has been made. In bright sunny weather the difficulty is less than when rains are frequent. The hay is Coarse and fluffy and does not shed rain well. If wet a few times it loses color and palatability. If left in the cocks any length of time after becoming wet it may mold badly. S om e E x c elle n t R a tio n s fo r Id le F arm A n im a ls ‘It is a mistake to feed horses that are idle or doing only light work a ration that contains too much heavy, concentrated feed,” says W. C. Skel- ley, assistant animal husbandman of the New Jersey ^agricultural experi­ ment station. “The concentrates are rich in protein, a very little of which is needed when the horse is idle. Feed­ ing it in excess just adds to the cost of the horse’s lieep, as protein is the most expensive nutrient in our feed­ ing scuffs.” 1 This is the timg to feed some of the waste products) of tlie farm such as oat straw and corn stover, the latter preferably shredded to reduce the wastage, advises Professor , SUelley. Tliese should lie supplemented with a certain amount of protein-bearing feeds, such as legume hay, linseed oil meal and wheat bran. . Two good daily rations for idle horses, per 1.000 pounds of Iiye weight, would be: ('ora stover 9 pounds, and clover or alfalfa hay S-pounds; or else oat straw 6 pounds, clover or alfalfa hay 10 poiinds, and corn I pound. By feeding these cheap roughages, with a small amount of protein feeds the horses can be easily maintained at. a hiiuimUm expense. When the horses go into the hard work of the spring they will not be able to use as much, roughage as when they are idle because they have not the time needed to thoroughly chew and digest, it. For this reason the roughage should be reduced and the grain concentrates increased as soon as they begin to. work. This should be done gradually so as not to cause colic or other digestive troubles. S u d a n G rass Is U se fu l / a s G ood E m erg en cy C rop Since Sudan grass Is not sown un­ til after corn-planting v time, it will not take the same plqce in any graz­ ing system as rye pasture, which furnishes good pasture in the early spring. Sudan grass is a good pasture grass, and it is used principally as an emergency crop, much as is millet In the corn belt.' Care must be used In pasturing, the crop after frosts in the fall. After tlie frosts, prussic acid develops .in the plant, which may prove poisonous to stock. It is also reported that in very dry seasons .the acid develops In .the plant, but the danger from this source is remote in the corn belt. It should lie seeded at tlie rate of about 20 pounds to the acre. It may be-either broadcast or drilled. Make a garden plan and tlien fol­ low it.* *■ * - . Save broomsticks for stakes.

Honey may be used in many dishes. In place of sugar. Cakes, cookies and pudding prepared, with it keep moist longer and are of better flavor. Wlien picking the feath- _ ers from game, like wild ■ ducks, remove the heavier feathers and as much of the down as one wishes to save, then dip the birds into • a deep dish of melted paraffin, letting them hang In a cool place to harden. When cold, peel off and free from pin feathers. Beheat the paraf­ fin add use it again, using care that it is not too hot so that it cooks the flesh. In steaming pudding like suet or plum puddings, which keep for some time, use the pound baking powder cans to steam the puddings. The slices are uniform and much more attractive and there are no broken bits to be wasted. Boston brown bread steamed In these cans is more attractive in ap­ pearance when cut. Keep a small bottle of caramelized sugar for coloring gravies. Melt and brown the sugar in a smooth dry p an; When it is of the right color add boil­ ing water to dilute, cool and bottle. A few drops will add much to any meat sauce. A pincli of cream of tartar to boiled frosting or fudge will prevent sugaring and will make a nice and creamy mix­ ture. Cover poached eggs a moment while poking to give them the pink glazed appearance which is so attractive. Add a little ciiopped cabbage and apple to ordinary.potato salad to give It a flavor that is different. Canned pineapple juice cooked with sago'or tapioca and served with cream, using a garnish of chopped pineapple, makes a most appetizing dessert. When bits of yolk get into the whites that are to be used for frosting, re­ move them by using the egg shell to dip them out of the white. If a veal or any meat loaf is wrapped In oiled paper before baking it will save loss of flavor and juices, with no hard crust. Hashed Potatoes.—Chop cold boiled or baked potatoes into small bits. Season with salt and pepper and chopped parsley. $o each quart of potatoes add three tablespoonfuls of butter, melt and add to the potatoes; stir until they begin' to brown, then add one-fourth cupful of thin cream and set back on the stove to brown. Fold like an omelet and serve with the brown crust on top. Garnish with parsley. Do not use a meat chopper as it will make the potato mushy. A good hash is always chopped in the chopping bowl. Meat, loaf is also much better so prepared. Household Hints. When hot applications are needed for earache or. other troubles, use a Iightedelectriclightbulb against the ear, being careful not -to leave it there too long. If wrapped it is liable to cause a fire. If no electricity is- at hand lay a thin layer of papers on a hot cook stove or in_t h e o v e n wiiere the paper will not burn, la y t h e c I o t h s wrung from hot water between the •folds of paper and keep them hot while going to the patient.

Is a native of Africa and Is best suited to a warm country, though they will do well In the lati­ tude of West Virginia and Indi&na, writes A. J 1Legg of W est Virginia In the Rural flew Yorker. There are two brefeds of guineas In this country, the pearl arid the . white guinea. Both are about the same nature, the main difference being that of color. Both breeds are of a wild,' nervous nature arid enjoy traveling all over the farm in search of bugs and worms. They 'can be taught to return home at night and to roost In the poultry house. , Guineas are about the best insect destroyers that I have eyi»r tried; they prefer worms and bugs to grain, though they will eat some grain. I have seen them eating currant worms, and Colorado beetles, two pests that chickens pass by without molesting. I have atso seen guineas killing field mice. To anyone who wants to turn crop pests into, a valuable product I would recommend a flock *of guineas for the purpose. ’. The guinea Is a good summer , egg producer, begins laying In April and If kept from sitting she will continue to produce eggs Until late in the Dill. The hens lay an egg every day while they do lay and an average of about 100 eggs to the hen may be expected from a flock in a season. The eggs are not as large a s. the chicken eggs, but are of a better flavor and have a harder shell. To anyone ‘who is thinking of rais­ ing guineas I would recommend that they buy eggs and hatch them under chicken hens rather than to buy old guineas, as the old guineas are liable to range away and not crime back to their new home. The best season, for the young guineas to be hatchedis June and July,' as they* delight in warm, dry weather but cannot stand a coid, wet season. A good-sized hen can cover twelve eggs very well; As soon as they hatch they should be inclosed In . a close’box or coop for a few days until they learn their adopted mother's call, else the.v may stray away In the weeds and grass and get lost. A young guinea is like the grouse or quail and will hide when scared. After the guineas are a few days old they become very much attached fo their adopted mother arid will fol­ low her until, ,grown. They should have free1 range with shelter only when it is raining. Only a few male birds should be kept about, one for eight or ten liens. In this way they will go in flocks and several hens will lay in the same nest. P ou ltry D ise a se s C au se H e a v y L o sses to F arm er Heavy losses of poultry are being -caused by a form of cold known as bronchitis or cold In • tlie windpipe. D. C. Kennard, associate in animal industry, Ohio experiment station, who is receiving numerous reports of re­ duced egg production and losses from disease, attributes these losses largely to closing the poultry houses too ttgh't and to overcrowding. In bronchitis, apparently healthy birds die suddehly from strangulation caused by a thick mucus which fills the windpipe. -This can be detected by opening the trachea, or windpipe from end to end with a pair of small' scissors. The disorder responds to preventive measures better than to treatment. Prompt relief may result from admit­ ting an abundance of 'fresh air with­ out drafts, providing ample floor and roost space, and replacing old Utter with fresh, clean material. Epsom salts may be given to aid birds In- overcoming tlie disease. ’ D u ck s D em a n d P le n ty o f !

Most of the lights in the houses were out, save here and there, where s o m e farm boy was tinkering with his radio, or some mother was bend­ ing over her mending basket. It made me thinfTas I drove along a b o u t .the great army of 10 o’clock people The people whd get up earlv in morning for the purpose of getting tired and who go to bed early to get rested up for another day. The world is kept going because of the homely virtues of the 10 o’clock folks. In ancient times as well as modern the fool-killers have been the time- killers.! Civilization would soon be doomed bv the hectic night-life of our cities, if it were not for the majority of the people enough to get to bed early. It is nature’s ways with song birds . and strong men and women. You Premember how we once repeated the sentence from Benjamin Franklin, “ Early to bed and early and early / to rise. Makes a makes a man healthy. wealthy and wise ” The 10 o’clock people are the debt payers. Night owls live most on what they can pick up on credit. The Past Midnight people are trying to cash more happiness checks than Cod has put iiU the check-book of life. Their handker for cake is stronger than their appetite for bread M ostofthehades raised in mod­ ern life begins three hours after supper; ' Most of the hade* raided 'n mnd-Tn life begins three n.iurs after sup­ per. T he’ 10 o’clock people are the backbone of society. Tney are count- td on to the polls and take an inter­ est in ever\ good thing The Past- Midnight follts never tret their eves open enough to see life clearly. They are the wishbone of society. Who are the leaders in your com munity? As a rule, they are the 10 o’clockers. They run parent teach­ ers associations. They teach classes in Sunday school. They take a mor­ al interest in the young people of the vicinity. .Theyoften bear very heavy burdens becau-e others stay out late at night. Theyare old fa shinned; folks, hut their blood runs .-Ciean ini their veins. Theirhealth is good, and their conscience blame- Iesk Their groceries are paid for and the balance at tne bank is cpm- i for ting, When the final roll of the really great people of the earth is prepar ed, rest assured of this—: he hectic night fivers Who burn life’s candle into “wee small hours,’’ trying to find pleasure that Gud did not hap- P in to put into the orde^ of things, these will sink into nothingness and oblivion, while the sensible. God­ fearing, Gospel-living, hardworking people,- who knew enough to pre serve the sacred powers of their lives, arid express them in righteous living, they will be forever remem­ bered - - The children of such people will risp up and “call them blessed.” for’ they helped to carry ’the lighted torch of goodness and purity to other ages ... O urcountrv needs less of these I a m. but more of the 10 o’clock people 1 j .

And perhaps it as well, ,because, for. one thing, the exaggerated notions generally pre­ vailing about ‘ his accumulated wealth ^vill be dissipated with the forthcom ing of the facts. Since January, Colonel Bryan’s brother and his. widow have been going in to details of his estate and ,the..of­ ficial-'appraisal has just been com­ pleted",*- H undreds of Charlotte people have had opportunity the past two m onths to vjsiofi the beau- tieg of Colonel Bryan’s home in Cocoanqt Grove, near Mimami, and have listed to the varied stories of the guides fixing the valuation at from gjoo.oao to half a million dollars. T he Cocoanut Grove home is finally- appraised at $9 5 ,0 0 0 Colonel- Bryan’s accumulation, of wealth is fixed at the exact figure of $6 6S,3 ’3 o .7 0 . So he was consid­ erably distant froin the position • of millionare. Jn these possessions is included life, insurance policies to the am ount of $1 2,6 4 7.5 2. His household -furniture was assessed at £2,9 0 3 ,5 5 . Many Charlotte plerks can return more than that for taxation. H e owned $6 4 ,3 3 8 .- 5 4 in stocks and bonds, so he could not be placed in the class of the bloated bond-holder. Many peo­ ple had the idea'that Colonel Bry­ an had piled up great money from t’s writings, but his assets in roy­ alties were only $9 9 2.8 6—and he jad but little, over $6,qqo. in the hank. H e left m any bequests in aid of the causes he fought for. these being mainlv of a religious and educational nature, and the aid he devised for them will now have distribution.^-Charlotte Ob­ server, The CoQDiry . Doctor. ’The country doctor was the sort of fellow who stuck while a generation arose, and flourished,” says W. S Surratt, in the Chris­ tian Advocate. . “ H e helped the young parents; he taught them how to feed the young infant and treat­ ed it through all the ailments from chicken pox to pneumonia. W hen the child finally grew up, the fami­ ly doctor had- become for him U imethiug more than a■ mere in­ dividual- “ His step is faltering now; his sun has set; his day is almost done. But a monument to his faithful­ ness and courage lives In the hearts of all those men and ’women who once knew and loved him. Along with the rest of the pioneers, the qld-time doctor’s shadow is passing from the earth. W e rave in mind a few of these remarkable practi tiohers--D r, A.

J Fakers We StiU Hare With Us. “ I saw a mob on the street court week. I was- uneasy. Med: were pushing one another about, and forcing their way td the center of the crowd,” writes Eugene A sh ­ craft, in the Monroe Enquirer. “ There was much loud talk and no little bit of excitem ent. The crowd continued to grow. Old men, young men, whiskered men, red­ faced men, draymen and every­ body seemed to. be in a terrible frenzy. I made up my mind that I would see w hat' the trouble was Or what caused th.e excitement. " I got as close as I could I was jammed between two three hund­ red pound men and they were ]ust about to squeeze me to death. I heard somebody say som ething a- bout a razor and I knew .right then that somebody had got their throat cut, and he was lying right there dead—right in the middle of that mass of hum anity. /'Som ebig old guy got me by the nap of my neck and shoved me back out of the crowd. I ran to the court house steps and tried to get up on them and look over into- the center of that seething mass of hum anity, but those steps were packed with excited onlookers' I asked several men wbat -was the m atter but they were too much, interested to give me any informa­ tion. I made another rush to see! the corpse, or what ever it was in there I didn't get four feet when an old man w ith green specks on spit a least a pint of tobacco juice rigqt ker dab in jny face. I had- to go in reverse and clean up.. By this time there were several hundred people in this tnob. I. pitied the poor helpless men like myself who., could not break through. The weather was swear­ ing like a bull yearling after an all day fight, “ I finally got inside that living mass and there stood a stood a- lit/ tie man selling some little white stuff that you put on your razor strops to make your razor get sharp at a jer-k or two. H e was: asking only 5 0 cents for it. N o doubt, it cost him I cent. Our boy's were going wild over the stuff and buy­ ing it hand over fist. “ Mouroe stiil sells license to these fly-by-night hawkers in ' me­ dicines, trash and so on, and the people likewise enjoy passing their hard-earned’ money out for the stuff. If this guy had been selling Bibles or something else worth- having he would have been so lone some that I would have huhg crepe on his hat ” Crossing a State Before Breakfast.

Where The Work Is. The 1 3 -year-old Catawba county boy who burglarized a home and secured more than a. hundred dol­ lars in cash, while a charge of burg­ lary was pending against him: is a sample of the sort of m aterial that should enlist public interest. This boy is said to be unusually bright, and evidently his . intelligence' is employed in the wrong direction. The fact that lie staged a second burglary while his trial for the first in which considaration was shown him, was incomplete, suggests the incorrigible type. But unless there is som ething radically wrong . with his mentality, his youth gives hope that he caD be turned in the right direction. It is presumed he will be sent to the Jackson Training school. If there isn’t room in the institution, it should be enlarged: until all.boys eligible.can have the advantage of its training! More­ over, a separate and sim ilar insti­ tute should be prov’ded for youths above 16 and up to the age of 2 0 or 2 1. It is useless to talk about what parents should do, or the church or the Sunday school.' We are confronted by a condition. If salvaging is to be done it must be done before the criminal disposition becomes fixed. W e give considerable effort to la­ menting adult criminals and trying to save them from punishm eut for their sins. T hat may be a worthy effort, but obviously the time for raformation is before the habits be- come 'fixed. The adults, the ma­ ture m ind, knows, the consequences of wrong-doing, is fully cognizant of What it means, and more - than often the path of evil is deliberate­ ly chosen.. W hen that stage is reached, it takes more than a slap oh tbe wrist and a sentence to at­ tend church and Sunday school to bring about a change, of* direction, if the change can be made at all: The field of promise is among the youth. Instead of being moved by pity to subscribe money to give dead bandits an honored burial; we m ight get better results if we spent more money—spent all' that can be profitably used that way— in trying to stop the boys and young that are headed to the bad. The record df the Jackson Training school is evidence of the splendid results that may be accomplished inj this direction. The material is abund­ ant and the opportunity awaits.— Greensboro News. Obscene literature Cause Girls to go Wrong. A movement has been started in ETgh Point to have a statute enact­ ed banning the sale of certain “ ob­ scene” magazines and periodicals within the city limits; The move­ ment is promped by the announce­ ment of the local welfare officer that these publications have influenced the lives of a large group of fallen girls who have come under the care of the welfare department since the .first of the year.

WHAT THE EDITOR THINKS Can a man print an honest to- goodness newspapar tnese days and get by with it. Can the editor print all the news that happens in his town and community and express his own views as to what he thinks about certain questions, and hold his circulation and advertising? W>- doubt it very much. Ifh e is very plain spoken in his views regard ing any public question he is cer- t i" to lose some ol his subscribers ai d some adverti-ing. W eremem Ier on a few occ i-imis when Tht Record had to differ with some o* its be t friends along political lines We did not stand back on ex pressing oiir convictions. The re suit was that we lost a half liund red subscribers and so ne of our biggest advertisers got busv and withdrew their patronage from u*\ At lea-t a few fellows got so hoi that they actually shelled the cash out of their pockets and paid the subscriptions of sotne Republica is to a Democratic paper with the understanding that Republicans would have their subscriptions to The Record stopped. On several occasions we have been notified that if we wanted the support of a certain section of the county we Would; have to advocate certait. things that we had been fighting Did we face about and back-track. No, we told the fellows in a polite way to^go hang themselves. Re­ sult was they didn’t bang them ­ selves but had their paper stopped because we wouldn’t let them do the dictating. A gentleman came to us Svtne time ago and told us the reason we didn’t get their busi ness was because we boosted a cer­ tain enterprise I ere too much. And this same emerprise we were ac­ cused of boosting has given us a- bqttt four dollars worth of job print ing in 4 years—an a\e-age of about a 'dollar a year. Their work is done by another printing plant who so far as we know, have nevei dor.e much boosting for them The Rfecord could write one article and as a result, lose half its advertising The truth is mighty and will pre . Vail but sometimes you will find the newspaper handling it with gloves on. The Record doesn’t clahn to be perfect, but there is no set or . faction of men that can dictate to us what we shall or shall not say, in our editorial columns W e have lost business as a result of this policy but we are going to m aintain it or quit the business. T he Record is owned by an indivi­ dual and not a corporation, there are no mortgages or other strings tied to it, and the editor doesn’t ^ haVe to consult a couple of lawyers, banks/or politicians before saying how it stands on any question. If you like our . style of fqnning a newspaper we will appreciate your J^trolptSge. If you can’t stand a PgpertJthat has no strings tied to ■ and has to consult the hypocrites higher up then you are looking for some other paper besides The Re cord and we can get along with­ out your subscription or advertis ing that, is withheld because- we don’t get down on our knees when some of the big bosses pass by and kiss their big toe.

Lesson for April 4 JESUS APPEARS TO HIS DIS­ CIPLES I jjESS0N T E X T -Joh n 20:24-29; 21 GOLDEN TEXT—B ecause thoi» h ist seen m e, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have, believed.— J-ohn-20;29.: -PRIMARY TOPIC—Thom as Happy to See Jestis A live A saiiu - JUNIOR TOPIC— Xesus Appears tc •His D isciples. INTERM EDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­ IC—Jesus Appears to H is D isciples. TOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP- IC—L oving and Serving the R isen Lord, I. Jesus Manifests Himself to the Disciples—Thomas Present (20:24-29). Thomas was absent at tlie first ap pearance of Jesus—just why .we may never know. \ His absence deprived him of a visionW the Lord. Thte other disciples went to. Thomas with the glad news of the Lord’s resurrection but he would not believe. His stub­ born disbelief was such that he do; gedly declared that unless he saw the prints of the nails and put Iiis finger in tlie print of the nails and thrust his hand into His side, lie would not believe. Note: 1. The Lord's kindness to those who Iiave difficulties (w . 26, 27). Thomas deserved rebuke, but tlie Lord kindly supplied the evidence which he demanded. 2. The Lord revealed Himself to Thomas (vv. 27, 28). When He thus revealed Himself, Thomas' was transformed from a doubter into a _confesSor. He cried out, “JI.v Lord and my God/’ 3. The superior blessing of belief without sight (r. 20). . Jesus patiently furnished Thomas with tangible evidence of His resur­ rection, but assured him that- belief on Him without'the tangible evidence was to be in a frame of mind to re-, ceive the blessings of the Lord. II. Jesus Manifests Himself to Seven Disciples at the Sea of Tiberius (21: 1-14). ' 1. The. occasion (vv. 1-3). At Peter's suggestion the disciples go fishing. They do not go back to their old calling without hope in Christ. They should not be ’ateused of forsaking lheir Lord—they were poor men, therefore obliged to work. Furthermore, honest toil should not be considered incompatible with -wit­ nessing for Christ. Sensible men and women will be busy at so-called secular occupations until called from them by the Lord. . Indeed, when the Lord wants men to work for Him, He goes to those who are busy. The disciples toiled ail night and got nothing. 2. The risen Lord the supplier of the disciples’ needs (vv. 4-14). At daybreak the Lord appeared on the shore and inquired as to their success.- The Lord appears at the point of their extremity. Viien the disciples confessed their failure, He directed them and success followed. III. The Charge of tK% Risen Lord to Peter (21:15-17). y Christ put to Peter the thrice re­ peated, question, "Lovesf- thou me?’’ before He gave to him a commission. This shows that supreme love to Christ is the one ‘essential qualification for serving Him. “Lovest thou me more than these?” means,-no doubt, “Do you love me more than you do these dis-' ciples and all things besides?” Tiiree classes'!n the church need spec-ial care and food adapted to their several estates. 1. Feed My lambs (v. 15). Tliis first charge relates to those who are be­ ginning the Christian life, tlie babes in Christ. The word “feed" means more than' instruction. It means in addition to instruction, surroundings, influences, examples, etc. 2. Tend My sheep, (v. 16). This charge show* a different class. It means to shepherd the sheep. 'The duty here enjoined is to deal with the mature class. He must feed them, give them- the proper • instruction, gnide them, lead them and correct them. ( 8, Feed My sheep (v. 17). This third charge means the ,caring of aged Christians. The word “feed” Is much the same as In the first case. It means that for the aged Christians the instructions ought to be such as will be suited to their needs. IV. Follow Me (vy.v 18-23). Christ here gives a 'prophecy con­ cerning Peter's death. It was to be by crucifixion (v. 18.) Peter once shrank from the cross, but now -the Lord holds it up before him. It is not the Lord’s death on .tlie cross, but Peter's own. Whatever may be before, even the cruel cross, the disciples are directed to follow Him. W orldly Joy- Worldly joy is like the . songs the peasants' sing, full-of melodies and sweet airsf Christian joy has its sweet airs, too; but they are augmented to harmonies', so that he who has it goes to" heaven, not to the voice of a single flute, but to that of a whole band of instruments, discoursing wondrous music.—is.

Of course, it is entirely superfluous to go into any detailed recital of the good (Joints of- crepe materials. Sufficient unto the moment, is it, to know that crep’e fabrics are more popular 'than they ever were. _ -Whatever" lack may be in novelty of material is made up In the way of unique styling. One of the interesting features of this season’s modes is that the one-piece dress is given a two- piece appearance. Viewing the hand­ some flat crepe dress, which is shown In the picture, from the front, one Another very prominent feature In the styling of tile crepe frock is the necktie and various floating stream­ ers of seif-fabric which are often the '’sole items of adornment on the coat or dress. While tlie North is still buffeted by biting winds, the,South Is basking In summer sunsbine, and between the coast of Maine and that of Florida any sort of climate may be, found. This accounts for the diversity in the millinery styles nom on display In the centers of fashion and, incidentally, reveals that Miami and Palm BeafiJi are pointing the way for summer fashions. Small hats, of grosgrain silk, of straw, or of straw and silk combined, One-Piece Dress Looks Like Two-Piece. would think that it consists of a blouse worn over a circular skirt. However, the illusion is dispelled when one sees that the back portion is cut In one piece. Other of its Stylei de­ tails are the long sleeve, self-fabric tie and the braiding which patterns the hem-edge of the camouflaged blouse. There is an air of tailored elegance about tills frock, even though a touch of elaboration is suggested In the braiding. If one’s taste Inclines to a more ornate styling, the plaid-trimmed crepe frock is the very latest word from Paris. Solid colored crepe frocks, especially navy or black ones, are en- appear to be crowding out' the little felt hat which has had such a lasting vogue. Although tbe felt, In light col­ ors, looks summery, it is never a cooi hat. The new straws and silks are less plain and more dignified than the vanishing felts—their crowns are high­ er, their brims are varied. Three typical'shapes shown In the picture are all combinations of straw and silk. The group leads off with a pretty beret—the most graceful of'the brimless shapes. It has a crown of silk with a trimming of two-toned vel­ vet ribbon twisted about it The be­ ret is the inspiration for many draped hats of1 grosgrain ribbon. Straw and 4!

'U., CHARLOTTE, NO. 14--192& P f l U L T f i Y POULTRY HOUSE QUITE IMPORTANT Cliiekens raised on grandfather’s farm roosted in the apple tree or on the binder reel because these places were accessible, convenient and nei­ ther crowded nor stuffy, it Is pointed out by \Y. A. .Foster of the farm me­ chanics department, college of agrl culture, University of Illinois. This choice of biddy’s should be a valuable guide to the modern poultryman who Is planning to build a new chicken house or remodel the old one, Foster says. “Suitable housing is just as impor­ tant as the care of the flock because It provides for the comfort of the birds at all seasons. Furthermore, It is convenient for the attendant. In addition, to be effective and efficient, the house should be simple In con­ struction in order to keep the cost and upkeep low. A neat, attractive house adds to the appearance of the build­ ing group and value of the farm. “The comfort of the birds is secured through freedom from dampness and drafts and provisions for ample floor space In feeding apd roost space for night. An abundant supply of fresh air and sunlight promotes the health, vigor and comfort of,the birds. “A dry house tequires a dry floor placed on a porous, well-drained site, a lead-proof roof, tight walls and clOse-fitted doors and windows. Proper ventilation supplies fresh air to the birds, removes the moisture from the breathed air and litter and minimizes drafts,. which are disastrous (o the flock when the birds are Inactive on the roosts at night. This ventilation may be provided in several ways.' The apple-tree roosts of a generation ago were well ventilated. The open ma­ chine shelter where the range flocks like to roost fs also well ventilated. Biddy's choice, then, may require a little thought on opr part. Why. did she choose a pereli on the harvester’s reel? It was accessible, convenient and neither crowded nor stuffy as many roosts In the modern hen house. “Open-front houses provide venti­ lation and sunlight, Imt must be used with common sense to avoid undesir­ able drafts. A southern exposure is desirable. Modern ventilation equip- ment has advanced many steps in re­ cent years, it is ni>t yet fool-proof, but will require further study and Intelligent handling. “A poultry house of simple construc­ tion is not only desirable but neces­ sary to the success -of the venture. Simple construction enables the at­ tendant to build houses and install equipment which would he prohibitive it skilled labor was employed. ‘A neat, attractive, well-kept poul­ try house surrounded by a healthy, vigorous flock should be the pride of every poultry raiser. It is not only' encouraging to the owner but an asset In marketing the products.” Harden Pork by Proper Feeding Animals Fed Peanuts or Other Oily Material Do Not Tend to Softness. Milk. Powder Remedy for Little Chick Diseases Milk, powder is the remedy for the disease of coccidiosis, whicii for years has taken Its annual toll of baby oliicks, according to.the results of ex­ perimental work conducted at the Cal­ ifornia agricultural experiment sta­ tion, The results of the Investigation recommend the feeding or a ration to baby chicks which contains 40 per cent of dry skim milk. The investigators say: “The Tiict that feeding chickens mash containing 40 per cent dry skim milk not 'only protected thenv against coccidial infection but also stimulated rapid growth. Indicates that this would be a valuable practice in the preven­ tion and control of outbreaks of tbe disease on poultry farms." Two pens of chicks fed in the ex­ periment were Inoculated with -the germ of coccidiosis. Of those which did not get dry milk In their masii 23.8 per cent died. Of those which did get dry milk only 2.3 per cent died. It was found that chicks fed pow­ dered dry milk produced 2:1 per cent faster growth than those which were not so fed. * * * * * * * * * 4 H f* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Poultry Facts ***********************.3. ^ It Is much easier to keep., hens healthy and happy than if is to "doc­ tor" sick birds. . • • * Chicks hatched early this spring will start laying In the fall an.! make good producers by winter.• * ♦ Clean, fluffy hen feathers, well dried, make fine pillows and cushions; and.

Hardened for Market. In the report of the agricultural ex­ periment station, the live stock work­ ers show that in three separate trials during the last two years pigs weigh­ ing 125 pounds and 63 pounds each, fed 250 pounds'and 206 pounds of pea­ nuts for'56 days, have been killed out hard at a marketable weight. These pigs, comprising a total of 16 In the tests, made average gains of 75 and 72 pounds each on peanuts. The peanuts were then followed by the proper amount of hardening feeds. The pigs then killed hard. The work­ ers state that for each pound of pea­ nut oil consumed in the peanuts fed, it is necessary to give two and a quar­ ter pounds of hardening feed to make the hog kill out hard. It was also found that when harden­ ing feeds are given following the soft­ ening feeds, Iiarder bodies were pro­ duced than when the hardening feeds were fed in equal amounts, and at the same time that the peanuts were given.' This is explained partially by the more rapid laying on of fat after the hog reaches 130 to 150 pounds In, weight. Growth, has then decreased and the more rapid depositing of fat begun. Influence of Size. ’ The workers found also that the size of the hog when killed influenced the hardness of the body. A tendency to softness occurred in those hogs killed at 130 pounds or below, even when fed under the most favorable conditions and with the best feeds. In the tests made, brewer's rice, which is rich' in starch, was used as the hardening feed. According to the animal industry workers, it is felt that the funda­ mentals in soft pork research have now been solved. Keep Poultry Feed Bill at a Reasonable Level ■ The food buyer who knows the make-up of all kinds of feeding stuff can save many dollars by taking ad­ vantage of every chance the market affords. The price of a food is often no guide to its value. Poor crops often make certain grains advance in price out of all proportion to other grains and mill products. On the other hand a food which is very plen­ tiful for the time, or a refuse food too little known to meet with ready sale may be bought at a great bargain. By comparing the nutrients the ■ feeder will get a very fair idea of relative food values. The per cents of protein, carbohydrates and fits are of course of main importance. The potential energy br fuel value is also a good general indicator of the nutriment pres­ ent. Refuse or second-class products suitable for poultry can be bought very cheap In large cities, and the poultryman who knows the values of these substances can keep his feed bill at a reasonable level even when stand­ ard grain feeds are scarce and high. Bermuda Grass Is Fairly Good in Some Parts Bermuda grass is a fairly good pas­ ture in some sections. The seed of this grass usually gives a very low germination, and the method of start­ ing a stand by sowing the seed Is very expensive. A sure and more econom­ ical method is to plant the Bermuda roots. The roots are secured by plow­ ing up an old stand of Bermuda, drag­ ging out the roots with a harrow, and running them through some machine like an ensilage cutter that will- chop them up Into small pieces. These pieces are then sown broadcast on pre­ pared land or are planted In rows. Sweet clover is one of the best pas-, tures and is a great -crop for improv­ ing the soil.* • *' Out of 107 varieties of common weed seeds burled for 20 years 52 grew when planted. * * * Bight now is the time to prevent pocket gophers from harming next year's alfalfa and potato crops.

INEXPENSIVE DISHES “Inexpensive" lias come in these lays to he used as a matter of com­ parison, rather than the adjective it once was, for nothing these days is really inexpensive. Dried Apple Cake.— Cook two cupfuls of dried apple until tender, drain and cook with two cupfuls of molasses with spices to taste for twen­ ty minutes. Cream one- half cupful of shortening with one cupful of sugar, add two well beaten eggs, three cupfuls of flour sifted with two teaspoonfuls of bak­ ing powder, one-half teaspoonful each of soda and salt and two tablespoonfuls of milk; add the molasses and apples when cool, beat well and bake In a moderate oven. Fried Mush.—Corn meal mush should have a long slow cooking. Put on iron frying pan with a quart or more of water, tvlien boiling add a teaspoonful or niore of salt, add the conmieal a handful at a time sifting It carefully, stirring the water all the time; when a cupful of corn meal has been added to ahcut three - pints of water let it cook; if it seems too thick add more water—boiling of course, and let it cook for at least a half hour. This makes the mush good-flavored and well-cooked. Any mush not eaten may he poured into a buttered mold and set away, to harden. Slice and fry and serve with break­ fast bacon. Southern Hoe Cakes.—Add a tea­ spoonful of salt, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder to or.e and one-third cupfuls of corn meal. Beat the yolks of two eggs, add a cupful of inilk, and beat the whote mixture hard for a few ..minutes, then fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites. Drop by spoon­ fuls into a hot, well-greased frying pan, cook like griddle cakes, allowing plenty of time for cooking, turn and brown on the other side. Serve with crisp fried bacon or ham. Graham Puffs.—Take two cupfuls of graham flour and four cupfuls of boil­ ing milk, one teaspoonful of salt.. Mix and roll out and cut -into inch thick biscuits. Bake in a hot oven. If the oven is Iiot they will he very light. Tomato Pilau. — Fry one-fourth pound of bacon with a small chapped onion; when the bacon is well cooked add a pint of tomatoes, salt and pepper and half a pound of well washed rice. Stir the rice into the tomatoes when boiling hot, then steani until done. Oxtail Soup.—Cut the oxtail into pieces and fry in hot fat. Add two pounds of lean beef, four carrots, three onions, sliced, a buncli of sweet herbs, cover with cold water and simmer until the meat is very tender; strain, reheat, thicken with two tablespoon­ fuls each of flour and butter' cooked together and thinned with a little soup. Cook until well done and serve Hot. Household Hints. When using a large Southern onion and but a bit is needed, cut it without peeling and turn the cut side down on a plate. In this way it will keep fresh for days. A b u n c h of parsley or mint well washed and still dripping with the cold water, placed in a mason jar and covered tightly wjll keep for two weeks in a cool place. It may need rinsing with water once duriog that time, but will stay fresh and green. Take the spiced sirup left from pickled peaches and add to the mince meat when making a pie. Save all canned fruit juices—even a tablespoonful will add to pudding sauces or fruit cocktails, baked ap­ ples, or adds to lemonade for a cool­ ing drink. Apple juice and pulp, rhubarb as well, added to more expensive fruits will extend the more delicate flavor such as raspberry, pineapple or straw­ berry, reducing the cost of the fruit. Sprinkle dried and buttered bread crumbs over spinach or string' beans, just before serving, adding paprika and celery salt for seasoning. • A slice of pineapple, a quince or an orange will add zest to-fruit of mild flavor. \ ’ . • * Cranberries are-another good fruit extender; added to strawberries the color is always brilliant. Add a few spoonfuls of horseradish to the pickle jar. It noy only adds flavor but keeps the vinegar In good flavor. " A handful of fluffy kernels of com added to any soup will’'make it look' aiid taste better. ■ , Corn Flake Griddle Cakes.—Sift to­ gether one cupful of pastry floUr, one half teaspoonful of soda, two teaspoon,- this of baking powder, and half a tea­ spoonful. of salt;, add one cupful of corn flakes.

Caldwell, of Monti- cello, III., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel that so many constipated men, women, children, and particularly old folks, had tq be kept constantly “stirred up” and Jhalf sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. While he knew that constipation was the caqse of nearly all headaches, bil­ iousness, indigestion and stomach mis­ ery, be did not believe that a sickening “purge” or “physic” was necessary. In' Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin he discovered a -laxative which helps to establish natural bowel “regularity” even for those chronically constipated. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not only causes a gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, it never gripes, sick­ ens, or upsets the system. Besides, it is absolutely harmless, and so pleasant that even a cross, feverish, bilious, sick child gladly takes it. Buy a large 60-cent bottle at any store that sells medicine and just see for yourself. D r .

Robert ^Ofmeroa, w ho tells the tale, is talk in g to P eter Corlaerf chief of the trad­ ers, and man of enorm ous strength, w hen Darby McGraw, Irish bonded boy, brings new s that a . pirate ship is “off the H ook.” An old sea captain an­ nounces he has been chased by the notorious pirate. Captain R lp-Rap. The older Ormerod tells R obert the pirate is Andrew Murray, h is (R obert’s) great- uncle, com m anding the pirate ship, the R oyal Jam es. Murray is an ardent Jacobite. Robert m eets a youpg w om an from a Spanish frigate w ho is seeking her father. Colonel O'Donnell. Murray w ith a force of sailors visits the Ormerod house. H e announces h is intention of car­ rying off Robert, by force, if necessary, prom ising him a great future. The R oyal Jam es and the W alrus, th e latter com m and­ ed by Flint,. Murray’s partner in piracy, appear. . M urray, ‘ Robert and P eter board the Jam es. Mur­ ray offers F lin t a share in the loot of a Spanish treasure ship if he w ill co-operate w ith him. F lin t in sists Robert be le ft with- him as a hostage, w hile Murray, in the R oyal Jam es, takes the treasure ship. The pirate ves­ sels arrive at their rendezvous. A fort and stockade are ere'cted. C H A PT E R .IX — C ontinued —10—. “ ’Tis true as gospel, - Peter,” I groaned. “I hoped to the last this ridiculous plan of Murray’s would fall through in some manner, but the man has a damnable determination.” ■ “Ja,” agreed Peter. “I t’ink he takes der treasure ship. Bob. Dot’s easy." “Easy? I see not liow!” “Ja, it is easy • to take her. But after comes his troubles. Mucli treas­ ure is bad for pirates. We hafe troubles after. Suppose we get oudt tonight Suppose we''get oudt and back to der James. Ja?” I looked around me skeptically at the heavy planking and stout timbers of the sides and for’ard bulkhead. “It can’t be done. ’Twould take a week to break out of this—and the James will be sailing in five' or sis hours.” “Neen,” said Peter. “We get oudt —any time, we get oudt.” “How?” I demanded. ^ He picked up the lanthorn and led me for’ard to the bulkhead. The light showed that one of the oaken planks was slightly sprung, leaving an infini­ tesimal crack between its edge and the uppermost of its fellows. “Are you planning to pry that off with your finger-nails?” I taunted him. “Neen," he answered, and conducted me to a corner whence the rats scud­ ded as we approached. He stirred his foot amongst some rubbish and turned up several long, wrought-iron spikes, such as are used to bolt, together the heavier ship- timbers. “Dot’s plenty,” he said. I could hardly control the gush of relief that welled up in me. “I believe it is,” I whispered. “But oh, Peter, there is such'little time!” “Enough,” he grunted. “Come! We begin.” We listened at the bulkhead Tor signs of life on the opposite side, but not a sound came through to us, al­ though the clamor on the upper deck and In the poop cabin seeped into our dungeon from overhead. ."Twas Stifllngly hot,, and- Peter’s first care was to strip off his buckskin shirt' and leggings. j “We got to swim,” he- said, eyeing them regretfully. - “You don’t need clothes tonight, Boby So I foilow’ed his example, and we fell to work with our spikes upon the sprung plank, the sweat pouring in rills of moisture from our half-naked bodies, our crude tools slipping in our greasy fingers as we pried and pushed and fought for every inch of space betwixt the plank and the up­ right it was nailed to. Petei; did all the work. As the last nail yielded to Peter’s shoulder the thin clangor of the bell of the Royal James stole1 down’ to us out of the nigbb Four times Jt rang —two o’clock! . "Get oudt, Bob,” I whispered Peter. I wriggled: through the gap in the bulkhead, and he passed the lanthorn after mo. Its flame was burning low, but I had sufficient light to determine that I stood in a stores-hold crammed with casks of rum, salt'm eat and ship’s biscuit. A door in its for’ard bulkhead led to another hold of the orlop deck, where were a hatch and ladder leading up to the gumleck. I crept as far as the foot of the ladder and listened to the snores of the scores of men’who slept in hammocks slung between the great guns of the battery. JTliat way lay our. onjy path of escaper : . I returned to Peter in a mood thaf^ was none too cheerful; but be was already at work with , his spike, hiss-. Ing like a kettle on the boil as he prodded away with its blunted point. I was able to be of more assistance to him this time, since from the far­ ther side ’twas possible to exert a . greater, leverage, once the plank, was sprung loose. Yet the James sounded seven bells before we were success- ful. Peter grunted his satisfaction. “We got time,” he said. “Wlioof! So much I sweat I slide me t’rough dot hole.” - • He was stripped to the buff, and In; ■. pink, hairless body was all' a-gltstel as he rolled into the opening. His head and shoulders made it easily, but I saw with dismay that his im­ mense paunch was an insurmountable obstacle. He heaved and shoved and twisted. Twas no manner of use. Peter backed out ’ of' his predica­ ment to an accompaniment of squeak­ ing grunts, and I followed him, too bitterly disappointed for words. Es­ cape had seemed so e a s y - a n d now ’ ^ we were condemned to two months .— . . . ARTflOR D. HOWDEN SMITH CbfJriih Ij Ariifli D. Hawiot Snitl ilHU Serricc “Dot’s better, ja,” remarked Peter complacently. “A little tight; but I don’t like to be naked, Bob. "Neen!” He rose, to his feet, buckling the dead man’s belt around him. "They’ll splash!”- I warned him as aboard’ the Walrus, very likely, to ex­ ceedingly uncomfortable deaths) for I fancied that Flint was the sort of man to lose his queer mixture of fear and respect for my great-uncle as soon as they were out of touch. “Hold der light here, Bob,” said Peter, squatting on the litter on the deck, and he proceeded to extract a splinter from his foot. “Ja, dot’s goodt,” he went on, stand­ ing up. “Well, we don’t get oudt dot way.” ‘ He felt his way toward the ladder to the cabin-hatch. “Always , there is another way. Bob. If one way is not goodt, der other maybe is better. Jal You see.” He climbed the ladder silently in his bare feet until his great shoulders were directly beneath the square of the hatch, and I heard a faint grind­ ing of straining metal, the crackling of tortured wood. “Ja,” he panted, desisting. -- “We do dot. Now .you be ready, Bob. Jump oop, quick. Maybe we got to kill some fellers, andt if we do we don't let them holler.” I could feel his legs quivering above me; the ladder itself vibrated under us. There was a whine, a sudden pop —and the hatch flew up: in the air. Peter caught it on the flats of his hands before it could settle again and lifted it back. He was out In a flash, and I was hard on his heels. We crouched on the main-eabin floor, staring about us for a sign of the pirates. Tlie lights had ail burned out, and it was several minutes before our eyes became adjusted to the star- shine that sifted through the stern window. At the’ exit to the deck we tarried to reconnoiter our situation, and ’twas lucky we did so. Eight bells rang out from the Royal James, and a voice most astonishingly close muttered a curse. “Ye might think they ’ad a blarsted admiral aboard,” answered a second voice. ' A whistle shrilled, and the gruff voice of Saunders reached us quite distinctly ordering the topmen aloft “There they go, Jemmy,” returned the second man. “We’ll be free o’ the swabs in another glass.” "And good riddance, says I,” ^de­ clared Jemmy, spitting into the scup­ pers. I saw where they were then, lean­ ing against the starboard poop-ladder and peering overside at the vague.hull of the James. Peter’s little eyes had “Are You Planning to Pry That Off With Your Finger Nails?” I Taunted. identified them, too, and his fingers sank into the flesh of my arm, sig­ naling me to stay where I was. He glided past me on to the deck, his body ghostly In the gloom. • ‘-‘I’m ----- if I can see as why WcT has to keep our peepers open,” growled the second man. “ ’Taint long now till morning," re­ plied Jemmy. “What d’ye s’y to a dash o’ rum,'matey?”, He hajf-turned, and saw Peter’s enormous white bulk hovering over him, and his teeth gleamed as he opened his mouth involuntarily to scream. “I don’t care if—” the second man said. The Dutchman leaped, and his two arms whipped out. Jemmy’s scream died in a guttural cough. He held pled, the throat o f each. He held them poised for a moment, then brought their heads together with an odd hollow smack like the cracking of egg-shells. They, collapsed lnert on the deck. - I da»ted for the rail, but ' Peter stayed me. “Neen, .neen,” he objected. » First I get me some dants, Bob. Andt we drop these fellers overboardt.” He was divesting the larger of {lie two of the single -garment ;each one wore while he talked, and, conquering an instinctive sensation of repug­ nance;:! did likewise. ‘Nobody hears,” lie answered. He lowered the body over the rail feet first,, and the splash was less than I had expected. The second body followed with equal expedition, and Peter laid hold of one of several ropes that trailed uhtidily over the Walrus* side. “Now we go. Bob,” he said. We entered the water almost to­ gether, and swam side by side down the anchorage toward the James. Peter, despite his discomfort at sea, was a remarkably powerful swimiher, thanks to ’ his lifetime in the wilder­ ness country of the frontier. “The tide will take care of the dead men,” I panted, stroking for all I was worth to keep apace with the Dutch­ man. A whistle shrilled again aboard the James. v “Ja,” said Peter. “Der anchor goes opp, Bob. We hurry!” He was a dozen strokes ahead of me at the end. I found him hanging on to the heet of the rudder and calmly treading water. For’ard the capstan was clanking to a steady yo- hoing and trampling of feet. Yards were banging, Sails were slatting; men were -shouting and calling. I looked up at the stern windows, so high above us. From our precari­ ous perch on the rudder the "James towered like Spyglass mountain, touchable but unattainable. Almost I .could have cried out to my great- uncle and hailed him to have us hauled aboard. But’ common sense warned me he would certainly seize upon the opportunity to send us back to the Walrus as clinching evidence of his good faith. And I had no de­ sire to lace Flint with those two dead men to account for,. What’s t<T“do?” I whispered to Peter, whose eyes were roving over the lofty stern. “We cannot bide here. Once she has way on her, we’ll be tossed off.” Ja,” agreed Peter. “You see dot shiny picture oop there?” He indicated a golden sunburst, carved across the stern beneath the cabin windows. “Yes,” I answered, puzzled. “I climb oop on der rudder, andt I holdt me on to der roundness in der middle, Andt you climb oop on my shoulders andt into der cabin win­ dows, ja.” “But you? How will you—’’ “You t’row me a rope.” He scrambled on to the rudder and slowly' spread-eagled himself upward against the scrollwork which covered the stern. His hands, feeling/ blindly above his head, sought for and found a deep indentation In the rays .be­ low the center of the sunburst, and with this to cling to, he climbed a foot or two higher on to a shallow ridge which ran across the stern, a shelf scarce wide enough to give him toehold. “Now you climb, Bob,” he grunted. The rudder I surmounted with ease, standing erect with a hand on one of Peter’s legs to steady me. I stepped up to the ridge upon which the Dutch­ man stood with no more difficulty; holding to his leather belt. Then I changed my hand-hold to a ridge in the carving, and by his direction braced the toes of one foot In the slack of his belt as I heaved myself upward. Peter grunted. That was all. I found a new hand-hold and brought my other foot up on to Peter’s shoulder and stood erect there. Reach­ ing upward now, better than two tuft mens! height above the waterline, my groping finger-tips were still below the l^vel of the stern windows. Peter sensed my difficulty. , “On my headt,” he grunted. I carefully, lifted one foot, selected another 'hand-grip and m o u n te d Peter’s tow locks. Again I explored upward with one arm stretched to the limit of. safety, but I -failed by inches to-clutch the sill of the stem windows, , “Jump,” sobbed Peter. “But you!” “Jump!” 1 The rudder clacked as it was put over, and the James heeled slightly to the breeze. ’ I jumped. Peter sagged beneath me, but the fingers of my right hand fastened upon the ledge of the win­ dow. I heard a splash, and caught hold with my left hand. “Ooop!” spluttered Peter from the water. The rest was child’s play compared to w hat had preceded-ft. The carv­ ing afforded toediolds in plenty, and soon I had a leg over the windowsill and looked down at Peter trailing in' the James’ wake as he clung to the shelf which crossed the stem perhaps a foot above the water. He dared no longer hold to the rudder. HiB big face-was so white that lit frightened me, and I tumbled inboard without stopping to make sure the cabin was empty. But my luck was with me, and I scurried around to find a rope. This was a hopeless 'quest in that luxurious apartment, so’ I ran Up tbe.companionway'and just inside Bie door to the deck came upon a lead line, coiled and hung to a hook, which I appropriated. Altogether these mo'vements con­ sumed less time than is required to describe them; but when I returned to the stern windows Peter was gone. I leaned out and stared back at the James* creaming wake—and a- white arni flashed in a gesture of appeal twenty feet astern. I cast the lead behind him, and he caught the Hue as it settled Into the water, cut the lead free with the dead man’s knife at his belt, looped' the slack under his shoulders, and with my feverish help hauled himself back to the shelf above the water line, I lacked the strength to draw him up; but I fastened my end of the line, to 'the cabin table, which was bolted to the floor, and then, foot by foot, Peter toiled upward. He was so weary at the last that I must pull him through the window, and he fell in a heap across the table, puddling the polished surface witj the sea­ water that streamed off him and the blood from his scarred hands. A bottle of the aqua vitae my great- uncle favored stood by his place, and I took this and poured a liberal tot between Peter’s lips. He . staggered to his feet, blinking his eyes and red as a school miss. “All right, Bob,” he squeaked. “I be all right, ja.” His eyes chanced upon the lead-line, still fast to the table’s leg, and he stopped and unknotted it and dropped it out of the window, “We better not stay here,” he mut­ tered. “Neen! If Murray sees us—” “Oh, my Gawd!” . Ben Gunn goggled at us from the companionway. - . ” “Drowned, they be!” he gasped to himself. "He done for ’em,- Flint did!” I was afraid he would run out on deck and cry an alarm, and I started for him to prevent this. “Be still, Ben,” I said. “We don’t mean_to hurt you.” He plucked up a little courage when I spoke. “ ’Tain’t right for ye to talk,” he objected. “I never heard tell as how sperets—” “We’re not -spirits,” I answered. “We are as alive as you are. Here, feel this.” ' He shrank back as I placed my clammy, wet hand upon his neck, but the touch reassured him. “Ye ain’t sperets, says you,” he re­ peated amazedly. “Nor ye ain’t dead. And seein’ as you’re here, why, it do stand to reason as how ye ain’t aboard thfe Walrus, which is where ye was and,where ye oughter be.” He shook his head. i “ ’Tis perfectly natural,” I retorted. "Master Corlaer and I have escaped from the Walrus.” Ben came a step or two into the cabin and stared hard at Peter. Then he turned a disapproving eye upon the pools of water we had sprinkled on the table anfl thi rich carpet., “Well; it do look to be ’ee two,” he conceded grudgingly. “But ye ha’ mucked up the cabin awful, and the captain will like to ha’ me triced to the main for a dozen'i wi’ the cat Maybe so,” be agreed. “But he won’t ike it that ye come aboard this way.” I seized upon his Opening without scruple. “Yes, he’ll hold it against you, Ben- ’Tis a shame.” He shivered, and I appreciated what my great-unde’s wrath must be. “Ye wouldn’t let him now! Master Ormerod! Oh, say ye wouldn’t! Ye don’t want poor Ben Gunn to be screamin’ on the triangle.” ‘That I don’t,” I assented warmly. “You must hide us, Ben. Nobody will know that you had aught to do with our coming aboard; and indeed Cap­ tain Murray' will not care, I think. ’Twas not of his own will be gave us to Flint.” • “If .’tis so, why. don’t ’ee go up on the poop and tell the captain now?” "He’d have to send us back to Cap­ tain Flint. You wouldn’t like to be sent aboard the Walrus to stay, Ben.*' Ben Gunn cocked his head on one side. “I ain’t sure," he answered. “Maybe Flint would let me wear seaman’s gear and tar my hair.” “If I ever command'a Sjiip you shall be a tarry sailorman aboard hej^ - Ben,” I promised. “But if you don’t hide us quickly, Ben, I ’ll never be able to make • good on it.” H e caught my hand in his. “You jes come along o’ me. Ben Gunn knows a thing or 'two, he does. I’ll show *ee, my master. You jest come along o’ me.” Peter and I sopped after him up the companionway to a- door for’ard of the staterooms we occupied, which led by way of a steep flight of ladder- stairs to the galley and service quar­ ters, a space partitioned off from the vast sweep of the gundeck. Ben Jih- hooked a lanthorn! from the wall,’ opened a trap in the deck and signed us to follow,, hirik-' At the bot.tom of a second ladder we fouhd onrselves in a lazaret such as had been opr prison aboard the Walrus. But there was-this , difference in our surround­ ings; That they were clean. 'The' walls were: whitewashed, and around them were ranged kegs and pipes of wines, ale and- rum, and racks ladcm with bottles of various liquors. . “ 'Tis' Murray’s wine-cellar,” I com­ mented aloud. Ben Gunn deposited, the lanthorn In the middle o fth e floor and ap­ proached his .mouth to my ear. “Aye. and he keeps his treasure ’ere—when so be he has any,” h* whispered throatily. “Doth he never come here?” “Not he. Nor the naygurs. neither. Only Ben Gunn.” “What shall we do for food?” Ben wiggled with embarrassment “Jest you leave that to Ben Gunn. He’ll feed ye well, 'my-master. Aye, that he wiil. -And fetch ye clothes from the cabin. Bnt don’t ’ee forget the promise, sir. Oh, say ye. won’t K’ “I won’t,” I assured him. “But^you must get back to the cabin and tidy up the rnesS we made. Haste, man!” He scampered up the ladder as if the devil were after him—or Para­ dise within view. . ~ And during the two days of our stay in the wine-cellar of the Royal James he was as good as his word. He fed us well. He brought me a sufficiency of clothing. ,And be procured' for Peter a quantify of linen and cotton cloth, with thread' and needles, with which the Dutchman fashioned him­ self garments to cover his incon­ veniently large bo'dy.' On the evening of the second day, having learned from Ben that the James had logged several hundred knots since leaving the Rendezvous, we decided ’twould be safe "to appear mote* “Yes, He’ll Hold J t Against You, Ben. 'Tis a Shame.” before Murray, and we took an oppor­ tunity whilst Ben was serving his din­ ner to ascend through the galley and present ourselves in the main cabin. My great-uncle glanced up as he heard the shuffling of our feet on the carpet. A furrow of perplexity, was dug betwixt his eyes. Otherwise he re­ vealed e» astonishment. “ ’Ods-bloaW Here is a pretty coil! Peter, PC JRger I have you to thank for it” “Ja,” said Peter, acff sat himself In his accustomed place at the table. “How did you compass ft?” I told him; and he stared curiously at Peter, placidly eating across. Bie table from him. “I might have known It, Peter. No man ever held yon in constraint against your will. I might have known It; AVhat a !mess! My plans and combi­ nations all askew! Peter, y’ have played at bowls with destiny I A half- hour since I saw my way clear. Now I must plot it fresh. Stap me, what a coil! AVhat moved you. to such a desperate course, Robert? Was it to be with me? Or was it O’Donnell’s lass?” . ' ■ . I hesitated, t frankly loath' to hurt him. . ! “I was concerned for her," I ad­ mitted finally. “This ship is no fit place for a maid, as I have said before.” “ ’Tis better than some,” he an­ swered. But my reply did not seem to an-, noy him. His gaze dwelt upon my face for several moments longer. “Well,-well,” he said as be begin to pace the carpet. “We must make the best of it, lad.” .

Mr. Meinhardi says "The Vacuum Repture Shield” will not only hold the Rupture perfectly,, but will con­ tract the opening in thirty days on the average case—usually giving in­ stantaneous relief withstanding all strain regardless of the size and lo­ cation oif the Ruture. WARNING: Do not expose your­ self to the danger of ,wearing old- gtyle trusses with understraps. These trusses usually place the pad on the lump and not on the rupture opening. This often causesiBtrangu- Iation which usually necessitates an immediate surgical operation or re­ sults in sudden death. "The Vacuum Rupture Shield” has no understraps, fio straps around the body or legs. It is also perfectly Banatary and practically indestructible, and should be w o r n while bathing. Only gen tle­ man are invited to call at this time as a special visit will be made herelater for woman and children. Notice: "The Vacuam Rupture Shield” can not be fitted by mail.

It is a known fact that the northern states today want a repeal or at least a modification of the Eigh­ teenth amendment, while the south­ ern states want Btrict prohibition. The great.NBA-Seryice poll did no more than establish that fact in our minds. ' NewYork voted overwhelmingly wet. North Carolina voted ■ over­ whelmingly dry. Now let us see what deduction may be drawn from those conditions- The southern states have had pro hibition long enp ugh to realize the value of icf We may ndt think it is enforced here but when compared to the northern states, NrTCh Carolina is done dry wilibeless and Ieso whiskey made them. and sold in these southern states. The same will apply to the wet north if it holds the amendment long en-: ougb. Then will the realization of its worth spread more generally. . But loudly crying that there is no wet sentiment. so>to speak, is loudlv dodging the facts.- The prohibition poll was conducted for the purpose of discovering how great that senti­ ment was. And if is mighty .great. Strict enforcement of the present law throughout the. country is about the only change ..the present senti­ ment in the north They have not really seen anv sort of a prohibition up .there. They, have only suffered because liquor ,is high. Naturally they kick.—Hickory Record.

THE SOUTH MUST GROW ITS OWN FOOD NO FARM SECTION CAN BUY ITS FOOD AND GRAIN AND BE PROSPEROUS Atlanta, Ga.—(Special.)—Few peo­ ple In the South reallze the enor­ mous drain there has- been on the South’s wealth through the 'steady food and grain buying during the past fifty years. What’s the greater pity ■of it Is the fact that' most of this money comes directly out of the farm pocket,” said H. 6 . Hastings, of At­ lanta, Chairman of the Farm and Marketing Bureau of ' the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce/ "For fifty yeartf or more the cities and towns of the Cotton Belt have been furnishing food and grain to the fanner Instead of our farmers feeding the cities and towns.' "While the cities and towns have' had the best of this unnatural business, It. has really Imr poverlehed both country and city.” ‘As neafly as c-n be ascertained, my own-state of Georgia has spent 'n the last 25 years not less than two and one-half billion dollars for food and grain from Qie North and West, real hard cash money-that ought to be sticking In our farmers’ pockets. That money is gone never to return. “It Is no over-statement or exagger­ ation to say that twenty-five million dollars of the South’s money has gone that way In the last fifty years. It was good; hard worked for farm money. What we have been doing is spending : our lives growing cotton, trading it off for bread and meat at no profit to ourselves.

They may have-had a part but a mighty small part In comparison with the part we ourselves ’ bare played. The way to stop that drain on our pockets is to stop buying food, grain and forage and produce those necessary Items on home acres. "The1 time to stort is now. Plans for 1926. are being made. Before a plow is stuck In, the ground, food, grain and forage acres should be set aside. These acreB should and must be first instead of last consideration. When these are fixed, then the farmer can go as far as he likes with cotton, tobacco or other cash crop safely. '‘Give the home garden a chance in this food production. It’s a wonderful helper in cutting store bills in hall for the folks that will give it a square deal Instead of the usual Tick and a promise,’ mostly promise. Start, the 'iod production procession In- 1926, ’.-a money procession will start to- ' your pocket.” New Spring Shoes.
