Grady, for the past four years Graud Dragon for North Carolina, has demonstrated that for half a decade the leaders of the Klan in the Nation have kept him in the dark as to the real direction in which they were headed. The history leadiug up to .this momentous event makes most in­ teresting reading. Iu brief,- Judge Grady, as the active head of the Klan in North Carolina, was re­ quested or instructed to father cer­ tain legislative measures to be put through the Legislature dbring the present session without the Klan appearing officially in the picture. The effect of the proposed legisla­ tion would be to make it a felony to belong to the Catholic brother­ hood—the Knights of, ColUmbus— or to marry a Catholic with the promise to rear the children of the union, in, that.faith. In the spirit of a true North Car olinian and a real American Judge Grady demurred at both the char­ acter and the manner of such legis­ lation. He suggested to the Im­ perial Wizard, Hiram W. Evans, that he did not understand the character of the people of North Carelina and went on to make the- matter clear to Klansman Zurri- brutttm as follows: “What we are here in -North Carolina is the result of birth, cul­ ture and environment. We halve tlie, cleanest .State, in the Uniotusp, far as native-born people-are con­ cerned. I have the greatest respect for these people; they are of my own blood;: and lineage. I love them more than I do any other people in the world; I think I un­ derstand them, and I would not needlessly offend them. I cau get along with them very well if I am let alone; but to be told that I must do thus and so'by men who do not know and understand local condit­ ions, is- a matter in which I must have some, voice, and my own choice of action. The Imperial Office will make a serious mistake in attempting such a course. I say this frankly, candidly, and I am expecting you and Dr. Evans to believe me.” ‘ ‘ Apparently his words fell upon deaf ears, for the Imperial Wizard was not convinced, whereupon he wrote again: ‘•I want to say to vou that you cannot expect me or any other des­ cent, honorable man in North Car­ olina to attempt to screen' any­ thing; and knowing the temper of our people as I do, I again . assert- t'iat such bills cannot be introduced in our Legislature as Klan meas­ ures, or otherwise. Zumbrumm does not know what he is talking about. And if he is acting as youJ mouthpiece, then you fall within the same condemnation.” Furthermore the Grand Dragon of North Carolina, in his official capacity, let fly the following hot parting shot at his Imperial High- nass: ‘It is a. far cry from this obliga­ tion which you and all other Klans- men have taken (the oath) to tne silly, unseemly and unconstitution­ al measures which you and your advisers are attempting to foist up­ on the people^ of a liberty-loving State.” . _ Btif imperials are nothing if .not imperial. Th6 upshot of the mat­ ter was that Imperial Wizard Evans politely but firmly wrote Judge G r a d y that if he would not obey instructions 'hi would find some one who tfvould and would he kind­ ly’ resign-.in; favor of an all-time Grand Dragon, .-witb kindest re­ gards,” etc. Judge Grady did what every true Nbrth Carolinian would do under the circumstances. He replied that he would not only re­ sign as Grand Dragon but that he. would also “forever relinquish, re­ nounce and abjure all allegiance, fidelity or connection” to the; Ku Klux Klan. As. a further sequel sixty six of the remaining eigbty- s:x local Klan organizations in the State are said to have surrendered their,.charters. If this is true, it is evident on its face that the Imperial Wizard . has used his imperial power, to kill the Klan in North Carolina. -Winston- Salem Journal. ■' ! Unfair Competition. The focal .merchants stay on: the job year in and year out, pay clerks, rent, taxes, and contribute to the various causes. They are a big part of the town and without; the stores here Morganton would not be much of a town. Any sane per­ son knows that they lnust have a certain amPunt.of-profit to run their establishments and take care of re­ turns on their investments. This is by way introduction to rhe consideration of a situation that is unfair to there merchants, who live here and help make the town. Nearly every week itinerant sales­ men, “peddling” almost every known article of merchandise;, brushes and silk hose leading, make a canvas of the town. Theit argument is that they save the “,middleman’s profit” , and ^tlieir prues are therefore lower; In so.tqe instances a comparison and investi; gat ion will show that they are <irot. very much 'less than the local mer­ chant charges,1 if such things'as postage, cash payment, and quali­ ty are taken into consideration. But suppose they are, is it fair to the merchants who pay taxes to keep the town going -that these “peddlers”—for they are that— come in and do business in compe- titisn with them and pay no taxes whatever? They escape tlie regtikr peddler’s tax by taking orders and making delivery later. One of these salesmen cau to The News-Herald the other day and,1 making no sale, said he would be coming back next month. He was politely told he would be wasting his time to come again. If we were getting subscriptions to stock in a new local enterprise or dona­ tions to some worthy cause we would not expect anything from these ‘ ‘peddl'ers’ ’ on the other hand the majority of the local merchants would be called upon to help. We must learn to help each other for that is the only way to build a town.— Morganton News-Herald. The above article applies to Moeksvilleandallother towns.

Has it uat been said and accept­ ed from olden time' citizens of North Carolina shall be protected in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? Is not cruel and unusu­ al punishment prohibited by our cbnstitution? Conceding that death does not alwas result from self denial en­ forced upon a member of a jury, pietit or grand, it cannot be gain­ said that liberty and the pursuit of hoppiness require ‘.a > place for a juror to spit. Never mind, the spector who comes on the scene to hear the testimony in the f. and a. cases! Nor do we think it necessay to an­ ticipate expectoration on the part of lawyers and witnesses.

Four boys, ranging in ages from 17 to 19, are In the Iredell couuty jail, charged with stealing chickens. The youths were rounded up by Deputy Sheriff J. D. Joyner, of Eagle Mills township, with the as­ sistance of Mr. W.. B. Gaither, township constable. One of the hoys was brought to jail by De puty Sheriff Joyner Monday .after­ noon, another was .placed behind the iron bars about midnight .Mon­ day-night, and two other members of the group Wese brought in about tioon today. : Chickens hdd been missed from the homes of Messrs.. W. H. Rene- gar, J. A Reaegarr. atid Raymond Foster, who laid a total of twenty fowls to the charge of the boys. Deputy Sheriff Joyner tracked the automobile from the bpuses .where the chickens were taken direct to the home of Dorsett Wright, the officer finding where he had unloaded the chickens Sun­ day night and; re-loaded them Mon­ day morning taking them on to Mocksville, where they had been sold. After ‘locating . the stolen poultry in Mocksville, the officer kept on-tiie trail and captused Dor- sett Wright about four miles south of Mocksville; Later Clinton, ; D.

A North Carolina statute, yet on tne books, prohibits the sale of fags to boys under 16. T belajCtr is is so easily evaded that it is pro­ bably entirely ignored now, the dealer not taking the trouble to ask the age of youthful customers. For a long time Judge James L. Webb urged grand juries to give atten­ tion to the enforcement of this > statute, but even the Shelby jurist seems to have passed it up at im­ possible. There is’a church school at Boiling Springs .and to remove the cigarette temptation from (jhe schoolboys the school was incorpo­ rated under a special act which prohibited the said - of ,cigarettes within a radius .of three miles. That was the method of protecting churches and schools and special localities against the legalized sate of spirits in the davs'when the sale of strong drinks was legalized. . A place could- be incorporated by leg­ islative act and the sale could not be legalized within tlie boundaries. The Boiling Springs^mercliants Wlio could not handle ..cigarettes saw- smokers go straight outside vbfc three-mile limit and ^supply them- :selws^t]Sbut trouble, hence they figured they might as well have the business. The ‘legislature a- greed, although friends'- of the school protestec. It is difficult ’-to believe that the arrangement really lessened cigarette consumption, but the school people wanted it that way. They no doubt,felt that way. They no doubt felt that repeal of the law was a sort I of admission that the boys were priviledged to' smoke. Along about the time ciga­ rette sales' were bdng restricted ' some of the western states—notably Kansas —in which tobacco was not • grown, saw in them an evil to be suppressed The Kansas law pro­ hibiting the sale of cigarettes in that state, enacted probably a quar­ ter of a century, ago^has just bedu repealed. Whether it was decided that the cigarette isn’t as danger- ous as it was found that the law was ineffective, does not appear. Probably commercial reasons were the predominating influence. There are two outsanding rea­ sons why laws restrictiug- or pro­ hibiting the sale of cigarettes are no longer in flower, aside from any modification of opinion as to the cigarette. I n the tobacco growi ng ing states the value t>f the-' tobacco crop outweighs- considerations of smoking; and many millions of cig­ arette money are now used for 'fi­ nancing religious causes. ' '' That is especially true in North Carolina. Church people who might have a- foretime lined up against the cig- arette'as an evil from which the boys must be protected, have found it advisable to maintain a discreet silence on that" score, to avoid the appearance, of " 'looking Wgift horse in the mouth,” seeing that it is by this craft much money has been provided for the support of church schools and other reljgioi0 caug&Su —Greensboro News^ | American men are slender be­ cause for generations they have been taking their liquor’ standing tip, comments k German movie ac­ tor.

If there is not plenty in the wells it isn’t because it hasn’t rained during the past week or more. There is some question as :to whether the groundhog has made good so far or has lost his. reputa tion. This question will be left to the county officers to thresh out during their leisure hours. Their decision will be printed as soon as they can get together on this im­ portant question Thomas Cooper, former Wilm­ ington banker, who has been ser­ ving a term in the Atlanta federal prison, has been turned loose, bis sentence being commuted by Pre­ sident Coolidge Thomas has a sentence of eight years on the New Hanover county roads staring him in. the face. No one believes .Be will serve his eight years on the roads. The Record office is located a- longside an undertaking establish­ ment. Tbis fact doesn’t worry us at all but euough of anything is sometimes enough. We would dislike very much to have our of­ fice surrounded by undertaking es­ tablishments. Variety is the spice of life, so here’s hoping our side of the public square will get some­ thing besides undertaking shops. The North Carolina legislature is due to close up shop and retire for two years at the end of the week. We don’t know hownnuch good or how much harm has been done by this body of lawmakers. We know they have killed some good measures and have no doubt put some worthless laws on the statue books. They deserve credit for a number of bills that were put to sleep. They were afraid of the monkey bill, the immorality bill and others. It is mighty hard for any legislature to meet aud enact • laws that will please all the people. ■What this state needs is less laws and a strict enforcement of the laws we already have. Congress lias ereateu a new Fed­ eral court disirict in North Caro­ lina to be known as the central district. This means that a new Federal Judge, a new District . At toruey and several.new offices have been created. There are a num­ ber of Republicans who would be glad to get this judgeship. A- mong the prominent men spoken of are Johnson J. Hayes, Frank A. Linney, James J. Britt, and others. Davie is in the new district. The Record would be glad to see John­ son Hayes get this .appointment. There is not a better man in North Caroline than Hayes. He has the ability to fill this high office with honor to himself and his party. Mocksville is sorely in need of a larger and more modern hotel. We talked to a gentleman a few days a- go who was here on business He had to use a bus to get into Wins- ton-Salem to spend the night and returned here the- following morn ing because he was uuable to get a rbbni.at the hotel The tourist travel throtigh this section is increasing yearly and the present hotel will not be able to take care of "the in­ creasing business that is coming this way. Nearly- every town of any size in this section of the state has a modern hotel and we must either build or let the tourist and salesmen go to neignbonug towns and cities to spend the nights. . Sheriff Cope tells us ihat there are already between *35 aud 40 cases on the criminal docket for March term of Davie court and more to follow. This doesn’t sound very much like the -world, or at least Davie county, is getting much better. Twenty years ago only two courts a year were held in this county and they rarely lasted more than two days. ' We now have ^ four courts a year with about five; days to each court. - The popula- j tion of the county hasn’t increased; more than 15 per cent, in the past twenty years, but criuie seems to have increased over a hundred per dent. The officers are doing their best to bring the law-breakers to justice, which naturally increases the number of cases on the. court docket. S h e ffie ld N e w s .

"Jour brain-work ,tons abruptly sometimes, doesn't It?” She handed him the lemons with a tittle gesture expressing amusement, irimupi, miti a dash of coquetry. Lau­ rie's eyes glowed as he looked at her. For the second time, In her actual presence, a sharp thrill shot through L ' Oh. if she were always like this*:—gay. happy, without that credible, unbelievable background tragedy and mystery! He turned his mind resolutely from the Intruding thought. This hour at least was hers and his. It should be prolonged to the last moment. What he longed for was to hear her talk, but that way, he knew, lay dis- Jjter (o the little supper In swift- rehirnlng memory. If she began to talk, the forbidden topic, now dor­ mant. would uncoil Its hideous length and liiss. He must hold her attention Io other things. He plunged at random Into chatter. For the first time he told her abont Bangs, his chum, and about Epstein,- Helr manager; about their plays and tkelr experiences In rehearsals and on He road. Being very yonng and ,Iljhtly spoiled, he experienced some chagrin in the discovery that she teemed alike ignorant of the men and the plays. Worse yet, she seemed not even aware that she should have known who Bnngs and Epstein were. She did not recall having heard the title of “The Black Pearl.” She was not only unaware that “The Man Above", had broken all box-office rec­ ords; she seemed unconscious that it had ever been written. Observing his artless surprise, she gravely ex- plained. "I have been interested In I elher things,” she reminded him. The forbidden topic was stirring, stretching. To quiet it, Laurie leaped Into the comedy scenes of “The Man About." They delighted her. Her soft, delicious laughter moved him to lire her bits from “The Blajck Pearl,” aid, following these, the big scenes from the latter play. This last effort followed the supper; and Laurie, now Ia bis highest spirits, added to his tlfects by the use of a brilliant af- lban. and by much raising and lower­ ing of the light of the reading lamp. Be was a fine mimic. He became by turns the star, the leading lady, the comedian and the “heavy” of the big play. Itwas only when he had stopped for a moment’s rest, and Doris de- IMnded a description of the leading lady's gowns, now represented by the afghan. that his ingenuity failed. "They’re so beautiful that most people think I made them,” he said, serenely, “But I didn’t, really, so I can’t give you any details, except that they're very close-fltting around the feet.”. I was folding up the afghan as he spoke, anil he stopped, in the act, leaving one end dangling on the floor, from the street below the sound of a whistle came up to him, sharp and Penetrating, repeating over and over Ihe same musical phrase, the opening wtes of the Fifth Symphony. At first he thought the notes were whistled by wne casual passer by. Then, glanc- Jt at the girl’s face, he knew better. ™ sharp, recurrent phrase ' was a ®e finished folding the afghan, and ctteMly replaced It on the divan WwhIcb he had borrowed it As 01 so, he prattled on.

I’ve been a perfectly good reed fever since I met her friend Bertie." , His thoughts, thus drawn to Shaw, dwelt on that ophidian personality. .When the elevator arrived he was glad to recognize the familiar face of Sam. “Yaas, sab,” that youth affably ex­ plained,' with a radiant exhibition of teeth, “it’s Henry's night off, so I has to be on.” They were alone In the car. Laurie, lighting a cigarette, asked a casual question. “There's a plump person In bine serge who hangs around here a good deal,” he remarked, Indifferently. “Does he live In the building?” “The one wld eyes what sticks out?” “That’s the one.” Sam’s Jaw set “No, sah, dat party don’ live yere. An’ ef he don’ stop bangin’ ’round yere, somethin's gwlne t’ happen to dat man,” he robustly asserted. “What's he after?” / “I dunno. I only seen him twicet. Las’ time he was sneakin’ fum de top flo\ But I cert’n’y don’ like dat man’s looks I” Nothing more was to be learned from Sam. Laurie thoughtfully walked out Into the square. He had taken not more than a dozen steps when a voice, strange yet unpleasantly famil­ iar, accosted him. “Good evening, Mr. Devon,” It said. Laurie turned sharply. Herbert Bansome Shaw was walking at his side, which was as It should be. It As He Spoke He Led the Way Down the Long Hall With His Noiseless, Gliding Steps. as to meet and talk with Herbert Ransome Shaw that he had so abrupt­ ly ended his call. ‘Look here,” he said at once, “I want a few words with you.” “Exactly.” Shaw spoke with suave affability. “It Is to have a few words that I am here.” “Where can we go?” Shaw appeared to reflect. “Do you mind coming to my rooms?” LanrIe hesitated. “I live quite near, and my quarters, though plain, are comfortable.” Anger surged up In the young man beside him. There was something al­ most Insulting as he uttered, the harm­ less words, and In the reassuring yet doubtful intonation of his voice. “Confound him!” Laurle told him­ self. “The hound Ib actually hinting that Tm afraid to go!” Aloud, he said brusquely, “All right.” “You have five minutes to spare? That’s capital!” Shaw was clearly both surprised and pleased. He strode forward with short steps, rapid yet polseless, and Laurie adapted his longer stride to his companion’s. He, too, was content Now, at last, he reflected, he was through with inysterles, and was com­ ing to a grip with something tangible. The walk was not the brief excur­ sion Herbert Bansome Shaw had promised. It was fifteen minutes be­ fore he stopped In front of a tall build­ ing. which looked like an out-of-date storehouse, and thrust a latchkey into a dingy door. The bolt was old and rusty. Sldaw fumbled with it for half minute before it yielded. Then it grudgingly slipped back, and Laurie followed his guide Into a dark hall, which was cold and damp. “They don’t heat this buidllng.” The voice of Shaw came out of the dark­ ness. He had closed the door and was standing by, Laurie’s side, fumbling In his pocket for something which proved to be a matchbox. “They don’t light it, either,” he explained, unnecessarily, as the bleke of his match made a mo­ mentary break In the gloom. “But it’s quite comfortable In my room,” he added reassuringly. “I have an open fire there.”As he spoke he led the way ’dqwn the long hall with his noiseless, glid­ ing stepsT Laurie, following close be­ hind him, reflected that the place was exactly the sort the ophidian Shaw would choose for a lair, a long, black hole, ending In—what? The match had gone out and he could see nothing. He kept dose to his guide! He almost expected to bear the creature's scales rattle as it slid | along. But snakes like warmth, and this place—Laurie shivered In the chill and dampness of It The next Instant Shaw pushed open a door and, stand­ ing back, waved his guest Into a light­ ed room. On first Inspection it was a wholly reassuring room, originally intended for an office ,and now turned Into a combination of office and living apart­ ment. A big reading lamp with an amber shade, standing on a flat writ­ ing desk, made a pleasant point of illu­ mination. Beal logs, large and well seasoned, burned with an agreeable crackle In the old-fashioned fireplace. Before this stood two easy chairs, comfortably shabby; and at the arm of one of them a small table held a decanter, glasses, a siphon and a box of cigars. As he took In these familiar details, Devon’s features unconsciously re­ laxed. He was very young, and rather cold, and the quick reaction from the emotions he had experienced In the outer hall was a relief. Also, Shaw’s manner was as reassuring as his homely room. He dropped the visi­ tor’s coat and hat on a worn leather couch, which seemingly served him as a'bed, and waved a hospitable hand toward an easy chair. Simultaneously he casually indicated a figure bend­ ing over a table on the opposite side of ^the room. “My secretary," he murmured. The figure at the table rose and bowed, then sat down again and con­ tinued its apparent occupation of sorting squares of paper into a long, narrow box. " Laurie mentally classified the "sec­ retary” as a big but meek blond per­ son, who changed his collars and cuffs every Wednesday and Sunday, and took a long walk In the country on Sunday afternoons. However, the fellow had pursuing eyes. Evidently his work did not need his whole attention, for his pale blue eyes kept returning to the guest. Once Laurie met them straight, and coolly stared them down. After this they pursued him more stealthily. He soon forgot them and their owner. Despite Shaw’s hospitable gestures, Laurle was still standing. He had chosen a place by the mantel, with one elbow resting upon it; and from this point of vantage his black eyes slowly swept the room, taking, in now all Its details—a typewriter, a letter file, a waste-paper basket that needed emptying, a man’s worn bedroom slip­ per coyly projecting from under the leather couch, a Utter of newspapers. It was ail so reassuringly ordinary, that be grinned to himself. Whatever hold this little worm had on Doris— Shaw had even ceased to be a snake at this point In Laurie’s reflections— would be loosed after tonight; and then she could forget the episode that had troubled her, whatever it was. At precisely this point in his medi­ tations Laurie’s eyes, having complet­ ed a tour of the room and returned to the fireplace, made two discoveries. The first was that the room had no windows. The second, and startling one, was that it contained Doris’ pho­ tograph. The photograph stood oii the mantel, in a heavy silver frame. It was a large print and a good one. The girl’s eyes looked straight into his. Efer wonderful upper lip was curved in the half-smile that was so familiar and so baffling. “Well,” the smile asked, “what do you think of it all, now that you are here? Still a bit confusing, isn’t It? For you didn’t expect to find me here, seemingly so much at home ; did you?” In the Instant when his eyes had found the photograph Laurle had been about to light the inevitable cigarette, The discovery arrested his hand and held for an instant, motionless. Then, with fingers that trembled, he com­ pleted the interrupted action, threw the match into the fire, and with blind eyes stared down into the flames. In that Instant he dared not look at Shaw. He was shaken by an emo­ tion that left him breathless and al­ most trembling. What was Doris’ pho­ tograph doing In this man’s room? In the momentary amazement and fury that overwhelmed him at the discov­ ery he told himself that It would not have been much worse to And her real presence here. All this had taken but a moment. Shaw, hospitably busy with his decan­ ter and siphon, had used the interval to fill two glasses, and was now offer­ ing one to his guest “No, thanks.” Laurie spoke , with abrupt decision. "No?” Shaw looked pained. Then he smiled a wide smite, and Laurie, seeing it and the man’s pointed teeth, mentally changed him again from the worm to the serpent He understood Shaw’s mental process. The fellow thought he was afraid to drink tlia mixture. But what did it matter what the fellow thought? “Perhaps, then, you will have _ cigar and sit down cofcfortably for our chat?” Shaw himself set the example by dropping into one of the easy chairs and lighting a perfecto. His smooth brown head rested In what.seemed an accustomed hollow of the chair back. His wide, thin lips were pursed In sybaritic enjoyment of his cigar. He stretched himself in the warmth of the fire, sleek, torpid and loathsome. "Mr. Shaw." , "Y-e-s.” - Still standing, with his elbow braced against the mantel, the visitor tossed his cigarette Into the Are and looked down into his host’s projecting eyes. It appeared that Shaw roused himself with difficulty from the gorged com­ fort of the moment. There was a per­ ceptible interval before he gave his guest his whole attention. Then he straightened In his chair, and tlie pro­ jecting eyes took on their veiled btft watchful look. “Yes,” he repeated, more briskly. In the brief Interval Laurie had planned his little campaign. He would address this creature as man to man; for perhaps, after all, there was more ’of the man in him than he revealed. "I am going to ask you to be frank with me.” “Yes?” Shaw let it go at that "When we met on the street it ap­ peared that you were , as anxious as I am for this interview. Will you tell me at once why you brought me here, and what you wish to say?” “Willingly.” Shaw flicked the ash off his cigar, and kept his eyes on its lighted end as he went on: "I brought you here because I want you out of the way.” “Why?” . "Because, my temperamental young friend, you are a nuisance. You are Interfering with my plans. I can’t be bothered with you.” The sudden spark that In the old days would have warned Devon’s friends of an impending outburst ap­ peared now In his black eyes, but he kept bis temper. “Would you mind confiding these plans to me?” he suggested. "They would interest me, profoundly.” Shaw shook his brown head. "Oh, I couldn’t do that,” he said, with an Indulgent smile. “But I have a proposition to make to you. Per­ haps you will listen to it, instead.” ‘TH listen to it,” Laurie promised. "It is short and to the point. Give me your word that you will stop med­ dling In Mlss Mayo’s affairs, which are also my affairs,” he added paren­ thetically, “and that you will never make an effort to see her again. As soon as you have given me this prom­ ise I will escort you to the front door and bid you an eternal farewell, with great pleasure.” ‘Tm looking forward .to that pleas­ ure, myself,” confessed the visitor. "But before we throw ourselves Into the delights of it, suppose you outline the other side of your proposition. I suppose It has another side." Shaw frowned at his cigar. "It doesn’t sound pretty,” he con­ fessed, with regret "I’ll Judge of that. Let’s have it.” "Well”—Shaw sighed, dropped the cigar Into the tray at his elbow and sat up to face the young man with u entire change of manner—“the rest of It,|’ he said calmly, "Is this. Unless you make that promise we can’t have the farewell scene we are both looking forward to so eagerly.” (TO BB CONTINUED.) S m ith in g sr L ittle Jo k e D id n 't Im p ress Callm r The Smlthings, coincident with young Smithing’s admission to partner­ ship In the firm, had moved to a more pretentious neighborhood. In their first few days there they'made two acquaintances, Mary Jane Ammons and Mrs. Porter WadHbgton. Ac­ quaintance with Mary Jane, the romp­ ing five-year-old daughter of their next- door neighbor, was simple and in­ evitable. An Introduction to Mrs. Wadllngton, a prominent and influen­ tial clubwoman, had been effected through a mutual friend. One afternoon Mr. Smithing saw Mary Jane race across' tbeir front yard. A moment later there was a knock at the door. He tiptoed to the door, turned the knob cautiously, then Troth Ever Supreme Truth shall never strike her ’top­ sails in compliment to ignorance or sophistry.—Father'Taylor.

There Was one note'of his falling due every banking day. He dropped into the bank one day and spoke genially te the president. "I came in1 to fix up that little, matter of mine,” he said. “I’d like to renew It for a while.” The president had the note on bis desk.' He picked it up and studied It carefully., “Henry,” he finally said, “I don’t think (this note is made out prop-' erly.” - A - . ••Why not?” asked'the borrower. “It reads: ‘I promise to'pay,’ not 9 promise to renew.*” A car for every -purse and purpose T HIS YEAR, the G eneral M otors lin e is an imposing A utom obile Show in itselL H ere is every style o f body* Every type o f design — fo u r cylin d er,six cylinder, eight; cylinder.

Washington.—P. H. Dorsett, agricul­ tural explorer for the United States Department of Agriculture, recently returned to the 'United States after two and a half years of searching In China and the tropical Islands of Sumatra, Java, and Ceylon for plants that may be useful in American agri­ culture. With the assistance of hia son, J. H. Dorsett, he made thousands of selections of seeds, plants, scions, bulbs, tubers and cuttings. This plant material, after passing inspection to determine its freedom from insect pests and diseases, and after being grown for a time in de­ tention as an additional safeguard against the introduction of pests, will be sent to scientific workers of the department, state experiment stations and other testing gardens to deter­ mine its adaptability to our conditions of soil and climate, its possible use for breeding work, and other qualities. Such testing takes considerable time, often requiring ten years or more, be­ fore the worth of a particular Intro­ duction has been sufficiently estab­ lished to warrant giving it' to the public. Interest In New Varieties. Because of the importance of wheat and barley In this country' and the increasing importance of soy beans and mungo beans, special attention was given to securing new varieties of these crops. What is considered as perhaps the best collection of soy bean varieties ever brought to thft' United States is the one collected by the Dorsetts In Manchuria with the help of B. W. Skvortzow, a Russian botanist teach­ ing agriculture in .the high school in Harbin, Manchuria. Upon learning the mission of the Americans he plant­ ed IdO varieties of soy,beans in the local botanical garden. When the Dorsetts visited the place In the fall after harvest they were told to take what they wanted, plant and all. This willing .foresight on the part of the Russian scientist enabled these explorers to send the 100 varieties of soy beans to the United States in their entirety, thus saving investigators in this country a year’s time in securing material, for study. It is estimated that 70 per cent of the soy beans grown in China are pro­ duced in Manbhuria and that upn%rd of 9,000,00? acres In that region is de­ voted to this crop. Something like 4,000,000 acres of soy beans were grown in the United States last year as a result of previous introductions. It is hoped that among the new vari­ eties will be found some that are suit­ able for culture in regions farther north in this country and in other, sec­ tions where the crop is not now grown. Mungo Beans of Importance. Mungo beans Is another staple crop in Manchuria and many parts of China proper which is of coming economic importance in the United States, said Mr. Dorsett. In their native country they are used as mungo beans sprouts, and are an important scource of their best bean vermicelli. Sixty per cent of the barley grown in the United States is the result of one Introduction from Manchuria. Many varieties of barley were includ­ ed in the collection because of their possibilities. Mr. Dorsett will ultimately receive more than 500 seed packets of wheat, barley, soy beans and other grains from the far corners of northern Man­ churia where agricultural explorers have been unable to penetrate. No railroads enter that region and mail, carried by foot runners, may be sev­ eral months on the way. Through the co-operation of the postal commission­ er of Manchuria, IX McLorn, samples of these major crops are being-secured from^each of the areas served by 500 rural postal stations. Manypackets of seeds have already come in and others are continually be­ ing received. When the collection is finally accumulated it will be a valu­ able source of nevr plant material for direct production and also for selec­ tion' and plant.breeding experiments; and one that was made; at a very slight cost to the United States,' so far as the actual cost of the plant material is concerned. The expedition was further aided by the Chinese Eastern railroad, through the hearty co-operation of M. K. Gord- eye, chief of the land department, in supplying to the United States De­ partment of Agriculture explorers, free of expense, a private car com­ pletely equipped with living quarters. They were thus enabled to travel from station to station, makipj; glops of a week or more to travel on foot into the interior. TO ANCIENT LIFE Find Tracks of PrehUtoric Birds and Animals. McPherson, Kan.—A heretofore un­ known bed of fossil tracks, clearly re­ vealing traces of Btrange birds and animals which stalked the southwest­ ern part of the United States -thou­ sands of years ago, has been located by Prof. H. H. Nininger, head of the biology department of McPherBon col­ lege. Footprints of 19 different kinds of animals and birds found In the bed have been segregated and Identified by their tracks and some of them. Professor Nininger declares; are new to modern science. Reading of the Kansas biologist’s work in unearthing fossils of a giant prehistoric animal of the cat family in central Arizona last April, Lea Means, a rancher living near Valen­ tine, Texas, wrote him saying there were some unusual imprints In hard flintlike rock on hi# farm. Professor Nininger went to the Means ranch, not far from the Mexi­ can border, and Investigated the im­ prints. He believes that country was, In prehistoric days, a large shallow lake, the bottom of which was. cov­ ered with a stiff muck. On this muck the animals and birds walked, leaving their tracks firmly Imprinted. Then came a time when the land was submetged with a sediment known as anhydrite, closely related to gyp­ sum. All of this was again beneath other sediments to a depth of from 150 to’ 200 feet and on top of this a 160-toot layer of basaltic lava flowed. During the pleistocene period, pos­ sibly from 50,000 to 100,000 years ago, a great upheaval broke up the forma­ tions and a stream has since brought to view the fossilized tracks, embed­ ded In . the rock which resembles flint T olstoy Grave H idden by N ine G reat Oaks Yasnaya Polyana, Russia.— Un­ marked and unadorned, the grave of Count Leo Tolstoy, great Russian writer and philosopher, remains .,hid­ den In his beloved woods where neither the voice nor footsteps of man in­ trude. The author of "War and Peace” sleeps under a simple mound of clay surrounded by nine gfeat oak trees In the depths of the forest near where he was bom almost a hundred years ago. The house In whl^h he was bom was removed many years ago, to be supplanted by the ten-rooin brick and frame house in which he passed most of his life and wrote his masterpieces. Time, weather and neglect have dealt severely with It, but the soviet gov­ ernment has set aside a sum for its maintenance as a museum. Miss Alexandra Tolstoy, the writ­ er’s youngest daughter, has charge of: the house and surrounding estate. She guards bis books, family heirlooms and personal possessions with maternal care. Find Sailor Sm uggling $125,000 Gem s in Socks New York.—Existence of an Inter­ national smuggling ring using sailors on vessels leaving Belgian ports to smuggle large quantities of diamonds into this country, is suspected by cus­ toms officials, who have confiscated $125,000 in gems in the socks of a Belgian seaman. Franz Tlelemans, on a Red Star liner, had the stones, aggregating about 500 karats, in two packages, one concealed in each sock. He was arrested. He told treasury agents he did not know the destination of the diamonds and said he merely had been instruct­ ed to -deliver them to a man with a red handkerchief at an uptown street intersection after he had replied to a password.

Washington.—Static, the bane of the radio fan who wants to get distant stations, may prove a valuable warn-, ing of such storms as the disastrous hurricane which struck Miami last September, according to a study made by the hydrographic office ~of the United States navy. Beginning In. March, 1924; the U. S. S. Kittery was used In a study of the value of weather maps In navigation. Before the experiments had been un­ der way very long it was noticed that- there was a very definite relation be-, tween the state of the atmosphere, as recorded in the data for weather maps broadcast from the naval radio station at Arlington, and the static. L'ater, when the weather maps were broadcast \and received by means of the machine invented by 0. Francis Jenkins, where a duplicate of the transmitted map is automatically drawn on the ship, it was found that the receiver could be used to record static. The Jenkins machine Is used In con­ nection with a radio compass. The latter device is equipped with a loop antenna so that signals may be re­ corded from one definite direction. As the loop is rotated, and peals of stat­ ic In any direction are detected by the receiver, corresponding ink lines are drawn on the paper-covered revolving drum of the Jenkins machine. In the time that it takes the recording pen to travel from one end of the drum to the other the loop Is turned through a complete circle, so that the paper gives a graphic picture of the static In any direction from the observer. '■* Ship in PatW of Storm. The KIttery was fortunate enough, froin the scientific viewpoint, to be in the path of the Miami hurricane of September, which was preceded by an­ other hurricane that swept over Ber­ muda. On September 14, when the Klttery was east of Nassau, the Ber­ muda hurricane was a few hundred miles to the northeast and the Miami hurricane was approaching St. Thom­ as. The maximum of static was from a direction between these two storms. As the ship sailed southland the Mi­ ami storm came nearer, while the Ber­ muda one went out of range, the static In the direction of the former became more intense. Finally, on September 16, after the Klttery had reached Cape Haitien, at the northwest tip of Haiti, and -had made necessary preparations for rough weather, the. ship and the storm met The static was terrific In all directions. By September 18 the Kittery wa6 at Guantanamo, Cuba, and the storm was 600 miles distant, having crossed ,the Florida peninsula. There was relative­ ly little static, except in the direction of the storm. Following the low pres­ sure area of the hurricane, came one of high pressure, and on the morning of !September 24, when the Kittery was near St. Thomas, no "static whatever was recorded, the only time during the entire month that such a condition, prevailed. Then, as the vessel started to sail northwest again, toward Cape Hatteras, another disturbance began to develop near Grand Turk island, and maximum static, was recorded In its direction. Hurricanes Develop Slowly. Such hurricanes as the Miami one develop in the doldrums of the Atlan­ tic ocean, off Cape Verde, the* west­ ern tip of Africa, several weeks before they hit the United States. The Mi­ ami hurricane, for example, began about September 5, though it did not reach Florida until the 18th. It is suggested that a group of radio com­ pass stations, located, perhaps, at San Juan, P. R„ a point In the Barbados, and Trinidad, would be able to detect these storms as they approach. With three Stations, where the lines from each ^roSs would be the center of the storm, so that its position could be ac­ curately plotted and sufficient time for warnings and preparation could be. allowed. The bureau of engineering of the Navy department is now working on a further attachment for the recording device which will record the Intensity of the static in each direction, with which, It is expected still more reli­ able results may be obtained. An In­ teresting fact learned In the data al­ ready obtained, however, with regard to the intensity of the static, is that it is much weaker than signals from powerful transmitting stations.

With Saul as their leader they dragged men and women from their homes and Impris­ oned'those who confessed Christ. The devil overreached himself lit this for' this persecution scattered the be­ lievers everywhere arid they preached the gospel as .they went. The time had now come for this witness-bearing to extend beyond Jerusalem as the Lord had commanded The Lord permitted this persecution so as to scatter them.. II. Philip breaching the Gospel In Samaria (w . 5-8)., Philip was one of the seven so-called deacons. He was not an apostle, nor a minister In the accepted sense of that term, but a layman. He Is the only man called an evangelist In the New Testament. He is an example of what a devoted layman can do In preaching the gospel In the evangeli­ zation of the world. He went to the city of Samaria and preached Christ, showing that the purpose of God In­ cluded these despised people. The fact that Philip preached Ghrlst untoj these people shows that the true evan­ gelist’s message is Jesus Christ. He did not preach Christ as an ethical teacher or an example merely, bat Christ as the Savior from sin through the substitutionary" offering of Him­ self on the cross. This is shown by the fact that he preached Christ to the eunuch from the fifty-third chap­ ter of Isaiah. He not only preached Christ as the Savior from the guilt of sin, but from the power of sin as symbolized In baptism, which means not only identification with Christ In His. death, but to arise In the power of His resurrection, to walk In new­ ness of life. Then, too, according to verve 12 he preache,d Christ as a reigning king. Philip’s preaching was fruitful, for mutitudes believed his message which was accompanied with numerous miracles. He cast out un­ clean spirits, healed the palsied and the lame. Great joy'accompanied the reception of the gospel by these Sa­ maritans! III. Paul an Example of a True Prsacher of the Gospel (HCor. 5:9-20). 1. His supreme aim was to please God (v. 9). ^ To live or to die was Imma­ terial to him If his service was but acceptable to God. This transcendent aim was strengthened' by the con­ sciousness that every one must one day stand before the judgment seat of Christ This atm explains Paul’s de­ votion. 2. His consciousness of responsi­ bility (v. 11). Bis sense of-solemn responsibility was the explanation of Paul’s be­ havior. Some thought that he was mentally unbalanced. His knowledge of God’s holy nature and of man’s sinful condition moved him earnestly to persuade men to be reconciled to God. No one who knows God’s terror will be half-hearted In his ministry. 3. He was* constrained by the love of Christ (v. 14). This means that he was governed by Christ’s love. Ministerial devotion Ig the expression of Teplcrocal love. Christ’s supreme love was expressed' In His death for us. Our love In re­ turn is expressed In our devotion to Him. 4. Consciousness of the God-wrought change In Him (v. 17). It was because he was wrought upon by God and was therefore a new crea­ ture that he sought to do His 'will. 0. The content of the gospel which he preached (w . 18, 19). The reconciliation of God through the death of Christ was his <central message. In the Incarnation God was In Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself. 6. Paul was an ambassador sent from God to appeal to the world to be reconciled unto God (v. 20). He was the ambassador from Uje •bl*h court of Jieaven sent to,this re­ bellious world. In a real sense, every Chrlstion minister is occupying the tame position.

Peter the Great TN A Bhed In the great shipyard A at Deptford, England, sat an, un­ couth laborer with shabby clothes, stained and ^dirty hands and tousled hair. He was - tolling away at low' wages, as a carpenter, and did not notice the looks of curiosity and awe that his fellow-workers ever cast to­ ward him. He thought everybody about the yards believed him to be honest Peter, the foreign artisan re­ cently hired by the superintendent As a matter of fact, the entire force of laborers (as well as the authori­ ties, the police and the British gov­ ernment) recognized the rough-look­ ing fellow for what he was. They knew him to be Peter I, czar of the Russias, and "knew that he was visit­ ing England In disguise that he might study shipbuilding and pick out a force of sailors, laborers and engi­ neers to carry back to Russia. Peter I—known to history as Peter the Great—had chosen one of the most difficult life-tasks that can be imagined. He had resolved to make half-barbarous Russia an up-to-date, civilized, progressive nation. Russia was semioriental, utterly unprogressive, with no navy worth mentioning, no army except a horde of ill-organized militia, and was woe­ fully lacking in modern thought, cul­ ture or civilization. One man set out to reform all this. And he did- it Peter was the third son of Czar Alexis. His eldest brother, Fedor, succeeded to the throne in 1676, when Peter was but four years old. Eight years later Fedor died, and Peter’s next oldest brother,' Ivan, a haif-Wit- ted nonentity, came to the throne. Within a very few years Peter planned to oust Ivan and seize the reins of government. But his sister Sophia stirred up the militia against him, and he was forced to reign joint­ ly with her and .with Ivan. He bided his time and, by his marriage and other political moves, soon gained enough power to put Sophia into a convent for life and to convert Ivan Into a mere figurehead. ' The latter died In 1696, leaving Peter In undis­ puted control. Peter at once began work on his plan to modernize Russia. He wanted naval power, and for this reason mapped out a double course—first, to perfect the art of shipbuilding and naval warfare Iii Russia, and second, to win two out­ lets (at the Neva and the mouth of the Don) for Russian fleets and com­ merce. For the ice-blocked White sea was often useless-for such purposes. He personally went in disguise to Holland and England, where, working in shipyards, he gained a knowledge of jthe.art and was able to hire work­ ers for his own yards. He also en­ tered the Russian army as a private, and worked his way up through each rank. Eager to Try his new navy and to win the desired “outlet,” he waged war on Turkey and captured Azoff, at the Don's mouth. He made a second tour of Europ'e and took for Russia the best customs of each country. Still in pursqit of his scheme to give Russia a seaboard, Peter joined Denmark and Poland In war against Sweden. Charles XH, the young Swed­ ish king, put the allies to rout In tbe first-campaign, but later Russia was victorious. In a war with the Turks Peter was less fortunate, and to save Ms army from destruction was obliged to surrender important strongholds. He captured the Finland gulf terri­ tory, and built at the outlet of the Neva U new city, which he named St. Petersburg. In 1713 he moved the seat of government there from Mos­ cow. Five yeans later occurred an event, that placed an eternal stain on the czar’s greatness. He bad but one son living—a weak, lazy, dissolute youth, Alexis, on whom all his hopes were centered. Peter tried In every way to interest ithe boy In affairs of state. 'Bnt Alexis could not or would not IeSrn. Peter’s hot temper blazed up, and henceforth the cowardly boy Ued to Ms father about his progress In study; and, while loafing, pretended to be working hard. AU this was a sore trial to the ambitions Peter, and he bore.it with scant patience. At last Alexis woke up and showed for once a very keen Interest In politics. But the political project In which he exhibited this'lively enthusiasm was a plot against his father’s throne and life.Enraged beyond endurance, Peter bad Alexis arrested, tried and con­ demned. On July 5, 1718, the young man was Imprisoned. Two days later he was found dead In Ms cell. Three theories have been advanced'as to his death. First, that In panic of fright, he committed suicide.. Second, - that Peter visited him In order to urge him to repentance; and In an excess of rage murdered Mm. Third, that he died under torture applied to make him confess his accomplices’ nttSeven years later Peter himself died at the age of fifty-two. Russia Itself is tMs strange man’s best epitaph and monument. He found it barbaric. He left It civilized. He added, six great provinces to Russia’s territory and made her a leading naval, political and commercial, power. No man, per haps, better deserves the two titles voted him by the Russian senate. •’The Great” and “Father of., His Country.”' Test Seed Gom to Avoid TjOss Expense Bivolved Is Slight and Will Prevent AU Weak Plants* Poor seed, means, a poor stand, miss­ ing hUls and weak stalks, producing little or nothing. It means waste land and wasted labor. It is sound busi­ ness to know that the seed planted will grow. The only way to find out Is to -test Satisfactory tests cah be -made by simple methods. The ex­ pense Involved Is slight Considering the little time and effort required, testing of seeds has been thoroughly justified. Com lends- Itself to testing better than any other grain, as It Is neces­ sary to test only a few kernels from each "ear to separate the unsound ears from those that give good germination, Rag-Doll Method Best. The rag-doll method is best suited for testing seed com and sorghums In the bead. The germination cloth I should be 16 Inches wide and 60. Inches long. Draw a line with a pen­ cil down the center of the strip of cloth. Mark the strips crosswise every four Inches and number the sec­ tions. Moisten the tester before put­ ting the kernels upon it. Always number the ears before removing the kernels. From different places on ear No. I take out ten kernels and place them In section No. I. Similarly take ten kernels from No. 2 and place In section No. 2; continue until every section Is filled. Place the kernels away from the dividing lines so a slight displacement caused by handling the tester will not mix the samples. Fold each side of the tester so that the edges meet In the middle. Press ttie cloth down firmly over the ker­ nels and roll the tester using some cylindrical object as a core. Working the Tester, Soak the tester for ten hours In Warm water. Then drain off the wa­ ter, leaving the tester in tbe pail with a loose-fitting cover where it Is warm and moist A temperature between 89 and 90 degrees during the day and 50 to 60 degrees during the night will give good results. The tester should at all times be moist and have good ventilation. At the end of six days unroll the tester, taking care not to disarrange the sprouts. The results will jndicate which ears grow with strong* shoots.' which are weak' and which will not grow st all. Idea ofSeriousness of Com-Borer Situation Some Idea of the seriousness of the com borer situation can be gained from the report from the annual field survey made By the corn borer labora­ tory of the bureau of entomology at Sandusky, Ohio, In 179 cornfields rep­ resenting the older portion of the in­ fested area of Ohio. These fields showed an average increase of infes­ tation slightly exceeding 400 per cent, as compared with a similar survey In tbe same or near-by field In 1925. Similar results are anticipated for the annual comparative surveys In western New York and southeastern Michigan, when these surveys are- completed. Feed Adult Geese for Eggs Along in February Adult geese should be fed for'eggs about February I, or so that the go's- ltags will be hatched by the time there is good grass pasture. In.feeding for eggs give a mash of equal parts by, weight of com meal, bran, and mid­ dlings or low-grade flour with 10 per cent Of beef scrap, In the morning, and a feed of cOrn at night. A con­ stant supply of drinking water should be provided. If geese need grain when not laying, ,the beef scrap should be left out and the corn meal increased In this ration to three parts. Helps Calf Ration Adding' .approximately one-ninth of a pound of calcium carbonate to a ration of prairie bay, cane silage, shelled com and cottonseed meal for calves produced slightly greater gains' at less cost per hundred pounds of gain than alfalfa hay. cane silage, sheiied corn and cottonseed meal, In an experiment completed lately at the Kansas State Agricultural college ex­ periment station. ' BH No organization functions properly without organization;• ■ * » The price of eggs this winter is from four to nine cents higher on a dozen than it was last year.* *. • The farm value of crops produced In-New York during 1925 showed an increase of 9 per cent over tbe pre­ ceding year. ": I *-.**•■ Heavy grain feeding Just before lambing may cause udder trouble. However, the ewes should have some grain at this time. ' \,Apparently the supply of men who were born and reared on a farm and who have a college training Is not in­ creasing as fast as the demand.i ■ • • * • * Gluten feed and cottonseed meal are relatively cheap dairy-feeds. They should be used In rations to balance the feeds that are low In protein. C a re le s s H an d lin g * o f M a n u re C o stly Best Plan Is to Apply It to Land as Produced. Fully-BO per cent of the value of farm manure may be lost Ihroughl careless handling. One way ,of handling farm manure Is to apply it to the land as ,it Is pro­ duced. This may be accomplished to advantage by pasturing off crops, pro­ vided animals are not allowed to run on the fields when the soil is w et When the manure Is handled this way the losses are perhaps not as great as through improper storage. There Is, however, a serious disadvantage to the method in that one cannot always apply the manure where it should go, and, In some cases, It may be neces- saiy to store It at least a part of the year. The liquid portion of manure con­ tains a large percentage of the total nitrogen and potassium. When this is not saved much of the value of the manure'is lost Therefore, when cattle are fed in the feed lot and the manure is storedrin the open, the manure pile should be oa level ground to prevent the liquid from easily draining away. If the manure is stored in a loose pile rapid fermentation dries it out and much of the organic matter Is lost Such losses, however, may be reduced by keeping the manure firm and moist. Piling the manure in the field, ex­ pecting to scatter it quite a while later, Is bad practice and should not be''followed. The loose open nature of the pile encourages fermentation, which increases the loss of organic matter and nitrogen.—F. R, Smith, Agronomy Department Colorado Ag­ ricultural College. Easier to Raise Ducks * . Than Little Chickens With reasonably good care and feed­ ing, little ducklings are easier to raise than chickens and will seldom be lost. Two important tMngs to remember, however) are these—ducklings must always have plenty of air to breathe and a dry place In which to exer­ cise. A brooder cannot be tightly closed at night or dead ducks will be found In the morning. Many duck raisers remove the skirts of the hovers entire­ ly after the first of May In order that Jh e .air may circulate freely over and around the brood when they are rest­ ing or during the night. While ducks enjoy water after they get a good start, there Is nothing hard­ er on little ducklings than damp, rainy conditions. -Keep them warm $nd dry until feathered-out. Steer Feeding Advantages Steer feeding is a business that fits In conveniently with the work of the ordinary farm, starting after crops are harvested and ending before spring planting begins. Steer feeding provides a market for the hays and other roughages produced on the farm during the summer. By providing work during the winter months, the farmer can employ a more satisfactory class of farm labor—Extension Bul­ letin 195-A, “Steer Feeding In Colo­ rado.” Ideal Chick Growth Ideal growth in a chick is an exceed;* ingly rapid prpcess, which is revealed In a comparison with an infant babyv A well-hatched chick will weigh ap­ proximately one and a quarter ounces at time of hatching, and in twelve weeks will attain the weight of two pounds, or twenty-five times'its orig­ inal weight A ten-pound baby at the same rate of growth would weigh 250 pounds at twelve weeks, which would be a real bouncer. Discard the runts and deformed birds. ' Three Culling Factors As a rule three main factors should be taken under consideration in cull­ ing the ewe flock, viz: age, wool, and lambs. And, without question, age is the most Important factor, and affects very strongly the other two. Ewes are in their prime generally from their third to fifth and sixth years. During this time they should produce their best fleeces and raise their best lambs. The older sheep are more susceptible to disease and tbe wool becomes of poorer quality. Insure Egg Ffertility One male In a flock of fourteen Plymouth Rock fowls of . any variety should be sufficient to insure fertility of the eggs during the natural batch; Ing season.. It would make no differ­ ence that the male and the females were of different varieties. Unless these eggs were set very early In the season, this head of the Bock should be replaced by another bird,. when eggs might be saved for batching aft­ er a week or ten days. Close confine­ ment Is detrimental to fertility. Control Hog Cholera Cholera is a very contagious disease confined to hogs, and has a mortality of nearly 100 per cent. The only means of control Is through strict quarantine, measure and the judi­ cious use of anti-hog cholera serum aud virus. One should keep men, birds, and dogs away from bis bogs, and be careful about importing feed from cholera-infested areas. If cholera .is near, vaccinate. Also keep in i touch with .the state veterinarian and watch the sanitation,I Proved safe by millions and prescribed by physicians iot Rheumatism Colds Neuritis Neuralgia Headache Pain Toothache Lumbago DOES NOT AFFECT THE h e a r t ] ■ Accept only tlBayef" package which contains proven directions.

When Dogs Are Pro­ perty Over iu Rowan county, it is not­ ed, a man slew his neighbor's dog and the said neighbor straightway sued the slayer far $250 damages. It came out .n evidence that while the dog was listed for “collar tax’’ it was not listed as property, de­ spite the fact that, after it was dead jthe owner claimed it was worth $250. ' Strange to say, the court fo.und.tliat the dog was worth $35, although the owner had taken gath in listing it that it was not of Value sufficient to declare it other than Ss a canine upon which the State collects a dollar or two (de- peneding on sex) special tax. • ; Inspection of the tax books in Davidson County, for instance, shows that many dogs are listed- as property. The total value-of these indeed is far greater than the total listed value of the sheep owned in the county. None of these are listed .perhaps at the sum the own­ er would ask in selling, but since other property is not listed- at trtie value the proportion is perhaps in keeping. Dogs that are listed as property are legally property, but to claim that a dog that the owner did not list as having any actual value beyond that of a pet—as the special tax law presumes—it worth $250, or even $35. is to strain the imagination a little. But loaded as the statute books are, there is still a lot more law. ; Itseemsto us the .

Yesterday’s grist of news brought three items from Georgia, to-wit: An editor was held up in his au­ tomobile by three men with white sacks over thier heads and upon admitting that he had written an editorial article attacking bootleg­ gers was beaten into insensibility; In Tombs county a merchant and five farmers' were arrested on charges that a year ago they en­ tered a church during the service, took therefrom the preacher aud flogged him; An 18-year-old white girl, ‘'mem­ ber of a prominent family in the agricultural community,” received a 12-months suspended sentence and four white men were convict­ ed, but not sentenced, on a charge that they visited the home of a negro couple, accused them of steal­ ing libuor, took them from their home and flogged them. Since two of the items relate to arrests ana convictions and only one to a fresh outbreak of flogging violence, the net' result offers a measure of encouragement to those who are so optimistic as to hope that ultimately flogging will cease to be the popular sport it has been in certain sections of Georgia. But obviously the optimistic do not have everything on their side. The present ratio is one fresh out­ break for every two arrest or con­ victions.’ In the long run that ra­ tio will have it’s effect, but it is certain to.be a long run. Figures are not available 'to show how mariy eases oLfiogging remain ,uib1 touched bp the law, but it must be a large number. If George is to have one fresh case for every two cases it disposes of through legal chanels, it is evident tnat there will be plenty of work to do for many months yet. Plenty of Georgians; white and black, are scheduled to flogged. And if the proper authorities in Durham and Wake counties in North Carolina are no more sue cessfnl in getting to the bottom of the recent flogging cases in those two North Carolina counties, it will not be surprising to see a continuation of the sport in this state.—Greensboro News!

Some Pie. Nine Register of Deeds in 164 Years. A man wanting to run for office had better hot pick out that of re­ gister of deeds of Mecklenbflrg county for once a man gets in that office he is hard to dislodge. Since the county was organized 164 years ago exactly nine men Have five filled that office. Robert Harris was the first register of deeds and held the office for 29 years John McKnitAlenander came next and held ou for 16 years. He was in turn succeeded by W. B, Alexander who officiated for 28 years. Then came F. M. Ross who' held the office 30 years. He was success by William M. Maxwell who stayed in 14 years. J. Wv Cobb came in in 1884 and resigned 14 years' being succeeded by A; Morris McDonald who voluntarily retired after 8.years service being- succeeded by W. M. Moore who kept the office" 16 years and wasde-!; feated by J-. R. Renfrow in 1922! the occupant of the office at this time having stated in on his third term and in is doubtless setting his' pegs to hold to the office indefini­ tely. The longest record however of any one holding the register of deeds office in the State Was that of Jown Laws of Orange county, who held the office more than years.—Ex.

Thursday night during the ser vice when a period was devoted to questions and answers some one asked the question, ‘‘Is it a sin for woman to wear knickers, paint lips and use ronge?” Mr. Putnam said, ‘‘now do not get mad with me, I am going to tell you what God says and you can be the judge.” The speaker then read from Deuteronomy 22:5: “ The woman shall not wear that which pertain- eth unto a man, neither shall a man neither shall a man put on a wo- mau’s garment; for all. that do so are abomination unto the Lord thy God.” Also to 2 Kings 9:30: “And when- Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it, and she painted her face, aud tired her head and lookeckput at a window.” “This,” he said, "was the custom, of that wicked Jezebel. ’ ’ Also, “I am sor­ ry for our girls, they are carried a-, way by the sinful, vain fashions of the world and they know no better because so thany of them have mothers who have nop taught them;” The speaker then quoted Spurgeon, who said: “London gets her style'from Paris and Paris gets from hell.” A 6oo-pound pie, said by its makers to be the. largest ever bak ed, was served one night the past week at the annual dinner of the CaliforniaStatesociety in, Wash­ ington. The serving knife was wielded by Secretary Hoover, a re­ sident of California. The pie, which measured five feet across the top and was car­ ried t>y eight waiters, was made with prunes from the California ranch of Representative Free, and baked under the supervision of •Mrs. Walter Johnson, a Californian and wife of the star Washington pitcher. „■ '■ Thedinner was givetf in honor of Representatives Welch, of San Francisco, and Epgelbright, of I^evada-City, “baby” members of tlie-house from California.

Without ex­ plaining what it’s all all about. Mr, Stroud, editor of the DavieRecord, Mocksville, delivers himself of a warning, which sounds like the old days, when the editor was thought to be justified in keep a long, dangerous knife on his desk or a heavy wrench within reach. He evi­ dently intends using his fists as weapons. Anyway he is all‘bet’ up over something, if the following is to be taken as an indication of his state of mind: “The Record man is not a scrap­ per, a bootlegger, a drunkard, or a thief. He believes in giving every man a square deal. If the paper says something you don’t like, come and tel! the editor about in­ stead of spreading the news over the town. We don’t want to make anyone mad. but the next gentle­ man who steps into our office with blood in his eyes is going to- have to whip the editor or take a flog ging. -A word to the wise is suffi­ cient.” Mr. Stroud once worked in Mor- ganton, in the early days of The News Herald. After reading this we are left wondering if his train­ ing here had anything to do with mis present! journalistic methods— Morganton News-Herald.

They launder exquisitely. The silken sheen of the rayon seems to grow more lustrous with each tubbing. Paris Fashion N otes of Interest to W om en Fashion notes from Paris as report­ ed in the Fashionable Dress Maga­ zine'read: One might say of the color scheme black and reds lead, with black and white showing a keen disposition to overtake, them:" ' The double waistline, "especially as Jenny defines It, is 'much seen. This is oftenest just two belts a few inches apart. ■ I’ - There is a new fashion of running a little tie, not more than a shoe-, string, across an open neck at the base of the throat. Yokes, are really tremendously im­ portant., From simple sports dress to elaborate evening gown, the yoke runs the gamut in its individual way. Skirts do not become fuller around the hip, only at the hem and they do not lengthen perceptibly. Perhaps the fan plaiting is to suc­ ceed the kick plait. H ow Skins Arie U sed in Coats for Spbrts W ear It is not aione the fact that fur coats are much more luxurious and infinitely smarter than they have ever Been or that skins never before used for feminine attire are employed in the fashioning of their wraps, that at­ tracts the attention. More than a little interest is attached to the clever and ingenious way in which the skins are put together. One sees this even in the less ex­ pensive coats made of fur suitable for sports wear, and Its^s more pro­ nounced In wraps which are in the luxury class. B elts and N ecklines Com ing to the Front Belts and necklines are again com­ ing to the front. For a time dresses seemed to be one Straight piece, but now the harrow belt is the thing. It is worn rather snug at the hip and gives a slight blouse effect to what Rarls terms a “neat” frock. '/ - • A square neck in front and a tab yoke in back is the newest of the new concerning the neckline. The jacket blouse with a narrow belt Is the latest thing for sports wear. , Tailored Suit A lw ays Included in W ardrobe In a season when the fur-trimmed coat or suit Is universally worn, a model which depends entirely ,upon its material and line for chic is of m o re than ‘passing interest. Every woman who mokes any pretense to keeping up with the mode always includes in her wardrobe the suit of tailored aspect. In some cases it is so cleverly cut and so unobtrusive In Its details that even in the. second year- it does not seem out of style. E lbow s F ashionable ElbowS are again fashionable. A considerable number of. new coats have buttoned elbows and the atten­ tion given the elbow trimmings by dress designers,. In-all sorts of gar merits, Is a leading point of the latesi fashions. .. • i . • ■ Improved Uniform Internationa!I (By REV. P. B. PITZW ATERt D.D., Deofl of the Evening School. Moody .

When and where given (v. 16). It" was shortly before the ascension in a mountain in Galilee where the .disciples met Jesus according to ap- pplntment. & The foundation upon whioh the commission rests (vv. 17, 18). In order to prepare the disciples to receive this commission,' Christ de­ clared to them that all power in heaven and in earth was given unto Him. Before the disciples would en­ ter upon the execution of this com­ mission they must be convinced of His Lordship. To create doubt in the minds of believers as to the deity of Jesus Christ is to cut the nerve of missionary endeavor. 8. What the commission is (w . 19, 20). I. “Go—teach all nations" (v. 19). This means make - disciples of all the nations, not Jews merely. , (2) “Baptize them in the name of the Triune God" (v. 19). Those who have become disciples of the Lord should receive the rite which signifies their relation fO him. (3) “Teach ,them to observe all Christ’s commandments” (v. 20). Those who have become Christ’s disciples should be taught obedience to all His ,commandments. 4. The promise attached (v. 20). - . Those who obey the king In evan­ gelizing the world havq the promise of His unfailing presence; II. Forbidden by the Holy Spirit to Preach In Asia Minor (Acts 16:6-8). The inclination of Paul and his companions was to tarry in Asia Minor preaching the Word, but con­ trary to their inclination they were hurried along; We have here a fine lesson on divine guidance. ■ The Holy Spirit is just as active and faithful in closing doors as in. opening jffiem. “The stops as well as the stebs oi good men are ordered of the Lord.” We ought as truly to recognize God’s hand in (he “shut-ins” as in the “open-outs.” III. The Call to Macedonia (Acts 16:9-12). The gospel having broken the con­ fines of the Jewish city and country, the middle wall of partition having been abolished, the time has come for ,it to leap across the Aegean sea and begin Its conquest on another conti­ nent 1. The vision (v. 9). Being hemmed in on all sides, a vision was given to Paul of a man of Macedonia pleading for help. This made plain to him .the closed doors about, him. In finding the divine will, we should look both ways. 2. The advance (vv., 10-12). As soon as the divine way was known they moved forward therein. IV. The First Convert in Europe (w . 13-15). The devout people were accustomed to worship by the riverside. To this humble gathering Paul came and preached to the women assembled there. A certain woman from Thya- tlra named Lydia, a proselyte, be­ lieved his message and was baptized. The steps in Lydia’s conversion are worthy of note for they are typical: L Attendance at ,the place of wor­ ship (v. 13). v . Usually those whom God is calling are found at the plate of prayer. 2. Listening to the preaching- of: the WOrd of God (w. 13, 14), * The instrument used In the'conver­ sion of sinners is the Word of God, (Rom. 10:17). 3. Her heart was -opened , by the Lord (v. 14). Only the Lord can convert ? soul. It is our business to preach the Word of God, and it is God’s business to ODen the heart of the inquirer. 4. She was baptized (v. 15). Every one whose heart the Lord has. opened desires to confess Him In bap-.I tism. > 5. Her household believed (v. 15). When one is converted ’those In the home will find it out. 6- Practiced hospitality (v. 15). Those who have experienced God’s saving grace are thus disposed to have part in His work by rendering aid to His ministers.

DrinkWaterto Help Wash Oiit Kidney Poison if Your Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers You, Begin Taking Salts When your kidneys, hurt and your back feels sore don’t get scare'd and proceed to load your stomach with a lot' of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which helps to remove the body’s uri­ nous waste and stimulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital impor­ tance of keeping the kidneys actise. Drink lots of good water—you can’t diink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morn­ ing for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts ik made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to help cfean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in the system so they are no longer a source of irri­ tation, thus often relieving-bladder weakness. Jad Salts Is inexpensive, cannot in­ jure; nmkes a delightful, effervescent lithla-water drink, which everyone should take now and then to help keep their kidneys dean and' active. Try this; also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache. Much of the charity that begins abroad, never reaches home.

By ELIZABETH JORDAN I (© by The Century Company.)WNtT Service CHAPTER IX— Continued —13— , “You mean"—Laurie was staring at him incredulously—“you mean .you don’t intend to let me leave here?” Shaw shrugged deprecating shoul; ders. "Oh, surely! But not immediately.” His guest turned and addressed the fire. “I never listened to such nonsense In- my life," he gravely assured iL Shaw nodded. • “It does seem a little melodramatic,” he conceded. “I tried to think of something -better, something less brusque, as it were. But the time was so short; I really had no choice." “What do yon mean by that?" Lau­ rie had again turned to face him. "Exactly what I say. Think it over. Then let me have your decision.’’ . Laurie moved closer to him. “Get up,” he commanded. Shaw looked surprised. “I am very comfortable here.” “Get up!” The words came out be­ tween the young roan’s clenched teeth. Shaw again shrugged deprecating shoulders. Then, with another of his sharp-toothed grins, he rose and faced his visitor. At the desk across the room the big blond secretary rose, also' and fixed his 'pale blue eyes on his employer. “Now,” said Laurie, “tell me what the devil you are driving at, and what all this mystery means.” “What an Impulsive, high-strung chap you are!” Shaw was still grin­ ning his wide grin. “You won’t tell me?” “Of course I won’t! I’ve told you enough now to satisfy any reasonable person. Besides, you said you had something to say to me.” He was deliberately goading the younger man, and Laurie saw it. He saw, too, over Shaw’s shoulder, the tense, waiting figure of the secretary. He advanced another step. “Yes,” he said, “I’ve got three things to say to you. One is that you’re a contemptible, lew-lived, blackmailing hound. The second is that before I get through with you I’m going to choke the truth out of your fat throat. And the third is that HI see you In .h—I before I give you any such promise as you ask. Now, Tm going.” He walked over to the couch and picked up his hat and coat. The sec­ retary unostentatiously ^insinuated himself Into the center of 'the room. Shaw alone remained immovable and unmoved, Even as Laurie turned with the garments In his hands, Shaw smiled his wide smile and encircled the room with a sweeping gesture of one arm. “Go, then, by all means, my young friend,” he cried jovially, “but how?” , Laurie’s eyes followed the gesture. He had already observed the absence of windows. Now, for the first time, with a sudden intake of -breath, he discovered a second lack. Seemingly, there was no exit from the room. Of course there was a door somewhere, but it was cleverly concealed, perhaps behind some revolving piece of furni­ ture; or possibly it was opened-by a hidden spring. Wherever it was, it could be found. In the meantime, his maneuver had given him what he wanted—more space in which to fight two men. With a sudden movement Shaw picked up the-silver-framed pho­ tograph and ostentatiously blew the dust off 'it. This done, be held It out and looked at it admiringly. “You will stay here, but you will not be alone,” he promised, with his wide, sharp-toothed grin. “This Willv keep you company. See how the charming lady smiles at the prospect—’’ He dropped the picture, which fell with a crash on the tiled flooring around the fireplace; The gldss broke and splintered. Shaw gasped and gurgled under the strangling hold of powerful fingers on his throat. Lamp and table were overturned In the struggle that carried the three men half a dozen times across the room and back. Laurie, fighting two opponents-'with desperate fury, could still see their forms and Shaw’s bulging eyes in the firelight. Then he himself gasped and choked. Something wet and sweet was pressed against his face. He heard ah excited whisper: “Hold on! Be careful there. 'Not too much of”that!” A moment more and he had slipped over the edge of the world and was lropplng through biack space. CHAPTER X A Bit o f Bright Ribbon. When Laurie opened his eyes black- oess was still around him, a blackness without a point of light. But as his mind slowly cleared, the' picture. he anw in his last conscious moment lashed across his mental vision—the Iim1 firelit room, the struggling, -draining figures of Shaw and' the olond secretary. He beard again; the oissej catffion, “Not too much of hat!” He sat up dizzily. There had been too Ihucb of that,” He felt faint and 'tiidly nauseated. His bands, grop- ng In the darkness, came in contact rith a brick floor: or was it the tiling around the fireplace? He did not know. He decided to sit quite still for a moment, until he could pull him­ self together. 1 . His body felt stiff and sore. There must have been a dandy fight In that dingy old room, he reflected with sat­ isfaction. Perhaps the other two men were lying somewhere near him in the darkness. Perhaps they, too, were knocked out. He hoped they were. But ho, of course not Again he re­ membered the hurried caution, “Not too much of that’’ He decided to light a match and see where he was, and he fumbled In his pockets with the first instinct of panic he had known. If those brutes had taken his matchbox! But they hadn’t He opened it carefully, still with a lin­ gering suggestion of the panic. If he had been a hero of romance, he rea­ soned, with a dawning grin, tha^ box would have^held exactly one match; and he would have had to light that one very slowly and carefully. Then, at the last Instant, the feeble flicker would have gone out, leaving it up to him, to invent some method of manu­ facturing light. As it was, however, his fat match­ box was comfortably filled, and his cigarette case, which he eagerly I Shaw Gasped and Gurgled Under the Strangling Hold of the Powerful Fingers on His ThroaL opened and examined by touch, held three, no, four cigarettes. That was luck I His spirits rose, singing. Now for a light! He lit a match, held it up, looked around him, and felt himself grow suddenly limp with surprise. He had expected, of course,, to find himself in Shaw’s room. Instead, he was' in a cellar, which resembled that room only In the interesting detail-that it appeared to have no exit. With this, discovery, his match went ont He lit another, and examined his new envi­ ronment as carefully as he could .in the brief interval of illumination it afforded. J The cellar was a perfectly good one, as cellars go. It was a small, square,, hollow cube In the earth, not damp, not especially cold, and not evil­ smelling. Its walls were brick. So was the floor, which was covered with clean straw, a discovery that made its present occupant suddenly cautious In handling his matches. He had no wish to be burned alive In this underground trap. The place was apparently used as a sort of storeroom. There was an old trunk in it, and some broken-down pieces ' of fumiturq. The second match burned out. Affluent though he was In matches,, it was-no parti of the-young man's plan to burn his entire supply at one sitting, as it were. Pqr balif atf hour be crouched In the darkness, ponder­ ing. Then, as an answer to certain persistent questions that came up In his mind, he lit a third match. He greatly desired to know where lay the outlet to that cellar, and In this third illumination he decided that he had found iL There must be son^e sort of a trap-door at the top, through which- he had been dropped or low­ ered. Those wide seams In the white­ washed celling must mean the cracks due to a set-in door. Undoubtedly that door had been bolted. Also, even assuming that IPwas not fastened, the ceiling was fully eight feet above him. There was no ladder, there-, were no stairs. His third match burned ouL In the instant of its last flicker he saw something white lying on the straw beside him. H e'promptly lit another match, and with rising excite­ ment picked up the sheet of paper and read the three-line communication scrawled In pencil uprjn it; “Out tomorrow. Flashlight, candles, cigarettes and matches In box at your left. Blankets In corner. Be good;” The recipient of this Interesting doc­ ument read it twice. Then, having secured the box at his left—a discard­ ed collar box, judging by its shape and labels—he drew forth the flashlight, the cigarettes, the matches and the candles it contained. Lighting one of the candles, he stuck it securely on a projecting ledge of the wall. By its wan light, aided by the electric flash, he took a full though still dazed inven­ tory of his surroundings. The ophid­ ian Shaw had puzzled him again. He had handled Shaw very roughly for a time. He could still feel—and he recalled the sensation with great pleasure—the thick, slippery neck of the creature', and the way. it had squirmed when he got his fingers into IL Yet the serpent evidently bore no malice. Or—a searing thought struck Laurie—having things his own way, he could afford to be generous. In other words, he was now perfecting his plans, white he, Laurie,. was out of the way. The promise of release tomorrow could mean, of course, only one thing —that those plans, whatever they were, would be carried out by then. And yet—and yet— The boy put his head between his hands and groaned. What was happening to Doris? Surely nothing could happen that night! Or could it? And what would it be? Only a fool would doubt Shaw’s power and venom after, such an experience as Laurie had just had, and yet— Even now the skeptical interrogation point reared itself In the young man’s mind. - One fact alone was clear. He must get out of this. But bow? Flashlight in hand, he made the short tour of the cellar, examining and tapping every inch of the wall, the masonry and the floor-work. Could be pile up the furniture and so, reach the door in the ceiling? He could not. The articles consisted of 'the smalt, bat­ tered trunk, a legless, broken-springed cot and a dock whose internal organs had been removed. Piled one on the other, they would not have borne a child’s weighL Laurie decided that he was directly under Shaw's room. Perhaps the creature was there now. Perhaps he would consent to a parley. But shouts and whistles, and a rain of small objects thrown up against the trapdoor produced no response. He began to experience the sensa­ tions of a trapped animal. So vivid were these, and so overpowering, as be measured his helplessness against the girl’s possible' need of him, that he used all his will-power In over­ coming them. Besolntely be reminded himself that he must keep cool and Abraham Claimed by Moslems as Brqther Besides ,the Biblical account of. Abraham there is a great deal of apocryphal and rabbinical literature concerning him, a writer in the Cleve­ land Plain Dealer remarks. He looms, very large also in Mohammedan le­ gend, where he appears as the most important, of the Biblical personages mentioned In the Koran. Indeed he is claimed as a Moslem, and Moham­ med made him the most prominent fig­ ure of pre-Mohammedan religious his­ tory.

He looked at his watch. It was three o’clock in the morning. He w sb exhausted and his body still ached racklngly. Very stowly he resigned himself to the fnevitable. Morning would soon come. He must sleep till then, to be in condition for the day. Be found Shaw’s blankets, threw himself on the straw, anif fell into a slumber full of disturbing dreams. In the most vivid of these he was a little boy, at school; and on ^the desk before him a coiled boa constrictor, with Shaw’s wide and sharp-toothed grin, ordered him to copy on his state an excellent photo­ graph of Doris. He awoke with a start, and in the ' next instant was on his feeL He had heard a sound, and now he saw a light falling from above: He looked up. A generous square opening ap­ peared in the ceiling, and leading down from It was the gratifying vision of a small ladder. Up the ladder Lau­ rie sprang with the swiftness of light itself. Subconsciously he realized that if he was to catch the person- who had opened that door and dropped that ladder, he must be exceedingly brisk about it. But, quick as he was, he . was still too slow. With a grip on each side of the opening, and a strong swing, he lifted himself into the room above. As he expected; it held no occupant. What he had not exnected, and what held him staring now, was that it held not one stick of furniture. Bare as a bone, bleak as a skeleton, it had the effect of grinning at him with Shaw’s wide white grin. His first conscious reflection, was the natural one that it was not Shaw's room. He had been carried to another building. This room- had a window, which, of course, might have been concealed behind the letter files. Yet1 bare as it was, ,It looked' familiar. There was the fireplace, with its charred logs. There, yes, there were the splinters of the glass that had pro­ tected Doris’ photograph. And, final convincing evidence, there, forgotten In a corner, was Jthe worn bedroom slipper he had noticed under the couch the night before. With eyes still bewildered, still In­ credulous, he stared around the empty room. Before him yawned aa open door; showing an uninviting vista of dingy hall. He stepped across Its threshold and looked down the wind­ ing passage of the night before. But why hadn’t he seen the door? He moved back > into the empty room. A glance explained the little mystery. The room had been freshly papered, door and all. The surface of the door had been made, level with the wall. When it was closed there was no ap­ parent break In the pattern of the wall paper. If there had been a chair In the room, young Mr. Devon would have sat down at this point. His body wanted to sit down. In fact, it almost insisted upon doing so. But just as he was relaxing In utter bewilderment, he received another gentle shock. Xbove the old-fashioned mantel was- a narrow, set-ih mirror, and in this mir­ ror Laurie caught a glimpse of the features of a disheveled young ruffian, staring fixedly at him. He had time to stiffen perceptibly over this vision before he realized that the disheveled ruffian was himself, a.coatless, collar- less self, with shirt torn open, cuffs torn off, hair on end, features battered and dirty, and bits of straw clinging to-wbat was left of his clothing. For a'long moment Laurie gazed at the figure In the glass, and as be ga^ed his , mingled emotions shook down into connected thought, Yes,. there had been.a dandy fight in this room last nighL and he had the satis­ faction of knowing that his two oppo­ nents must have come out of it as disheveled as himself. He had “bad them going.” Beyond doubt he could have handled them both but for their Infernal chloroform. Again he re­ called, with pleasure, the feeling of Shaw’s -thick, slippery neck as ,It choked and writhed under the grip of his fingers. Incidentally he bad land­ ed two blows on the secretary's Jaw, sending him first into a corner and the next time to the floor. It was soon after the second blow that the episode of the Aioroform occurred. Straightening up, he began the hur­ ried and elemental toilet which was all the conditions permitted. He re­ moved the pieces of straw from his clothing, smoothed his hair, straight­ ened bis garments to conceal as much of the damage to them as possible, and gratefully put on his coat, which lay neatly folded on the floor, with bis silk hat Testing snugly upon it.

With a last I.ook around the disman­ tled room, he closed its door behind him end went out into the winding hall.

F rederick th e G reat AN UNHAPPY'boy, imprisoned and in danger of death, was one day forced -by his father to stand at the grated window of his cell and watch his dearest friend executed. The boy was Prince Frederick of Prussia, later known as Frederick n, or Frederick the Great He had a sadder, more unfortunate boyhood than did any beggar in his king'dom. His father, Frederick William, was a stern, harsh king, and a harsher parent He was military-mad and would allow his young son Frederick to study ndthlng but the art of war. The boy loved poetry, music and science. It wa|, in a measure, the old story of Peter the Great and Alexis over again. And it almost had the same terrible climax. For, at last, wearied i by his father’s abuse and cruelty, and i resentful of the injustice to which he was subjected. Frederick made up his mind to run away from the life he hated and to take refuge with his mother’s brother, King George I of England. His most intimate friend. Lieutenant Katt, helped him escape from Berlin; but their Sight was dis­ covered and they were caught and brought back. Then came such pun­ ishment as few fathers could have de­ vised. Frederick was ,sent to prison and Katt was put to death directly outside the prince’s, cell. King 'Frederick William then demanded that Wederick renounce all rights to the throne. This the prisoner plnckiiy refused to do. The king in rage declared he would put Frederick to death, and was with difficulty dissuaded from the plan. He contented himself with ex­ iling his son from court; and, in 17.33, when Frederick was but twenty-one, forced him to marry a princess for whom the young bridegroom had not the slightest liking. For seventeen years after that Frederick lived in semi-seclusion on one of his estates, only returning to public life when, on the death ! of his father, In 1740, he came to the throne of Prussia. During the forty-six years of his reign Frederick well earned his title of “The Great.” He found Prussia a secondary German state with a popu­ lation of barely 2,240,000. He left it rich in new possessions, territory and power and with a population of 6,000,- 000. The fair principalities of Silesia, according to Frederick’s ideas, ought to belong to Prussia. So, the same year he became king, he set out to ac­ quire them. A two years’ war fol­ lowed, in which Frederick’s hardly ac­ quired military education stood him in good stead. For he was victorious, and. Silesia was annexed to Prussia. Frederick ruled his new possessions well and with mildness; and, although a Protestant, allowed religious free dom to Silesian Catholics. Knowing the unsettled condition of Europe and having fresh conquests in view, the victor now devoted himself to build­ ing up the strength of his armies; and, in 1743, he annexed East Fries­ land to his kingdom. . . Austria, so Frederick believed, had designs on Siiesia; so he formed an alliance with France and other coun­ tries and (to keep Austria’s mind on matters of defense rather than ag­ gression) invaded Bohemia In 1744. But fhe Austrians and Saxons com­ bined and repelled the invasion.' The campaign dragged on with varying fortunes until a peace treaty was signed by whose terms Frederick still held Silesia, and received 51,000,000 war indemnity. Eleven years of peace followed, which were spent by Frederick In strengthening Prussia at home and abroad, in promoting arts and indus­ tries and in raising his army to 160,- 000 men. This peace period was bro­ ken by a rumor that Russia, Austria and Saxony were combining against Prussia. Fearing lest he might lose his cherished provinces of Silesia, Frederick forestalled the allies’ ac­ tion’by invading Saxony. This start­ ed a seven years’ war, In which Fred­ erick won little except a military reputation that rendered him a strong and decisive power in European poli­ tics. ? When peace was declared he used his qwn private fortune in re­ pairing th^ ravages made by war. In the same year he concluded a treaty with Russia and was active in the first partition of Polapd. By the terms of this division he acquired all of Polish Prussia and part of Great Poland to the north. Henceforth, Frederick’s kingdom was divided into West and East Prussia. Tbe- crowning act. of Frederick’s statecraft, and' one that stirred the political system of the whole conti­ nent (ah well ias marking Prussia’s first open attempt to lead ail the Ger­ man states), was the forming, In 1785, of the “Furstenbund” (League of Princes) of the German kingdoms ' and principalities into a solid federa­ tion; thus .beginning what, in 1870, his descendant completed. In 1786 Frederick the Great, died, leaving his nephew, who succeeded him, a kingdom his genius had in­ creased in area by 29,000 square miles, a population increased by 3,600,(K)O, a treasury containing, over $70,000,001! (the richest in Kjirope), an army of 200,000. and boundless credit with every other nation. Thus; in his seventy-foprth year, perished the greatest of German mou , archs, a man whose father had though 'him a fool arid unfit to reign. C h e c k D i s e a s e s b y F e r t i l i z i n g Phosphate, Limestone and Manure Benefit Com Qual­ity and Yield. One of the outstanding results of the com disease studies being made by the college of agriculture, University of Illinois, is the favorable effect of manure, limestone and phosphate upon the yield and quality of disease-in­ fected corn, It is reported by E. E; DeTurk, chief in soil technology at the college. As an average of 21 comparisons covering a period of four seasons at Urbana and Bloomington, the above treatment increased the yield of com from good seed from 66.2 bushels to 77.7 bushels an acre, or 11.5 bushels; while with diseased seed the increase amounted to 14.3 bushels, the yield be­ ing raised from 52.4 to 66.7 bushels. Obtain Yield of Sound Corn. While some of the damage of com rot diseases can be greatly reduced by soil treatment, other injury cannot be so reduced. The yield finally obtained In any case is the result of many fac­ tors,' some working for and some against the com, some for and some against'the parasitic fungi. Whenever a set11 of conditions is established which are favorable for the* growth of com, but which affect the disease- producing organism unfavorably, or not at all, a good yield of sound com will be obtained. On the other hand, if the particular disease organism in­ volved responds favorably to the same influences which favor the com, the com produced may be even poorer in yield or quality than if the treatments had been omitted. Thus, in one case the total yield of com from good seed was increases 2.4 bushels, while from fusarim-in- fected seed the increase was 12 bushels for treatment with rock phosphate in addition to organic manures. The in­ creases In sound com alone were 4.3 bushels and 18.4 bushels for good and fusarim-infected seed, respectively. In this case conditions favoring the corn plant did not likewise favor the growth of the disease-producing organism. With ,diplodia-infected seed, a dif­ ferent situation exists. On early- planted com, rock phosphate had a similar favorable-effect In raising the yield of sound com. The Increase from good seed was 2.6 bushels and from diifiodla seed was 13 bushels. However, when the corn -was planted late In the season, the rock phosphate had no effect upon the yield from good seed, but decreased the yield from diplodla seed by 4.5 bushels. In this case the disease-producing organ­ ism, instead of the corn, was being fertilized. Discover New Possibifity. An important outcome of these In­ vestigations has been the' discovery of a new possibility In combining com breeding with fertilization, for larger and more economical yields. It has been found possible, for instance, to develop, by selection and breeding, strains of com which have more than the usual capacity for absorbing and utilizing phosphate from the soil and particularly from added phosphates. These developments may ultimately come to mean much to the corn grower. Attacking com diseases from mariy angles has taught the lesson that these Important diseases cannot ,be eliminated or controlled by any1 one method. Some gains have been made through fertilizer treatment and much more by seed selection and breeding, but neither of these nor even both to­ gether can be expected to furnish the complete solution of the problem. xS h e e p A c r e s n I s O f M u e h I n t e r e s t Find Impure Seeds AreLarge Tax on Farmers Clean seed and clean land will help the farmers to save hundreds of thou­ sands of dollars this year, according to a statement just issued by the ex­ tension division, Department of Agri­ culture of the University'of Minne­ sota. The statement referred to prints figures obtained from C. P. Bufl, weed commissioner of the state department of agriculture, to the effect that more -than $675,000 was paid by farmers for threshing - the dockage of' Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota arid Mon­ tana, in a single year, and that more than $800,000 was paid for shipping the same stuff to market. It is further estimated that on the basis of the average acreage of wheat in Minnesota for the last five years, the total loss imposed by unclean seed and nriclean land runs to $1,900,000. Losses of great amount In the grow­ ing of other creps ,occur In the same way. ■ Specialists at the-Minnesota experi­ ment station advise the planting of clean seed in clean land. Planting Grapevines The most popular distances for planting grape vines are 8 by 8 feet or 9 feet between the rows and 10 feet between the plants in the row for vigorous varieties such as Worden and Lucile. Grape vines should be planted in early spring and on thor­ oughly prepared ground. The hold should be about 15 . Inches across and about the same depth. -The plants should be set so the upper end of the-old cutting, used In propagation of the vine, shall be an inch or more be­ low the. surface of the leveled ground.

Comprising a tract of approximate­ ly 100 acres of. tillable land • In the animal husbandry experiment farm at Beltsville, Md.. “Sheep Acres” is yielding many results of interest to flock owners of the United States. The name is gradually coming to mean the proving ground for problems of sheep production under intensive conditions typical of farm sheep raising. A prac­ tical system of forage-crop pastures experiments already have shown; en­ ables sheep to be pastured longer and moved from field to field, thereby con­ trolling parasites more, fully than when maintained under the usual per- manent-pasture method. This prac­ tice makes it possible also to keep a farm flock on less cured feed, thereby saving expense and labor. Another important result of experi­ mental work at “Sheep Acres” con­ cerns the effect of. extra feeding of ewes at breeding time on the percent­ age of twins in the Iamb crop. An ad­ vantage of 16 lainbs per 100 ewes has resulted from keeping ewes In a highly nourished condition during that season. - Other experiments deal with growth of lambs, both in weight and size, fix­ ing of type In purebred sheep by se­ lective breeding, and rate of wool growth. The flock at “Sheep Acres” consists of approximately 200 sheep, including rams, ewes and lambs, rep­ resenting the Southdown, Shropshire, Hampshire and Corriedale breeds. D. A. Spencer is in charge of the investigations conducted at “Sheep Acres,” and B. F. Brandon Is superin­ tendent of the farm of which “Sheep Acres” Is a part Farm Machine Hospital Saves Time and Money During cold winter and early spring the farm shop is a very busy- place for the successful farmer. He may profitably utilize his spare time there and make repairs of ail sorts, according to John W. Sjogren, asso­ ciate professor of agronomy, Colorado Agricultural college. Among the more important farm repairs to be made are: Replacing broken hammer and fork handles, overhauling farm machinery and equipment, and the repairing and oil­ ing of work harness. On many farms the tractor and automobile are also part of the farm equipment Where a farm machinery hospital Is avail­ able, these machines are readily re­ paired and adjusted during the winter months.- “The farm shop need riot be an ex­ pensive building or contain a large assortment of expensive tools. The tools that are very desirable to have In any repair shop, are: Work bench, vise, hammer, hand saws, hack saw, wrenches, cold chisels, punches, planes, drills, square, level, hatchet, screw­ driver, .drawing knife, yoke shave, forge, anvil, blacksmith hammer, tongs, grindstone, emery wheel, drill, and harness repair tools.Garden Is Best PayingPatch on Average Fann Garden time comes when the farm­ er Is so busy with other necessary work that he thinks he cannot spare the time to put In the garden. Many say they can’t fiddle' around- with a little old garden. The result Is that the wife assumes the responsibility as well as all the work for the farm gar­ den. No matter how low the prices of farm crops fall, the farmer can al­ ways be sure of a good garden and enough to eat If the wife has to look after the garden In addition to her household duties, the garden will nec­ essarily be small. If the farmer him­ self spends more time.in his garden, he will find that the garden pays bet­ ter than any field crop he can grow for the. amount of land it occupies arid the amount of labor required.—Thom­ as H.

Skim Milk Good for Farm Can Be Made Into Concen­trated Product for Poul' try and Hogs. (rire U d 'W Surplus skim milk. at creameries and city milk plants can be made into, a concentrated product suitable for poultry and hog feeding, says the United States Department of Agri­ culture. Improved methods of sour­ ing and concentrating skim milk, developed by the, bureau of dairy '.in­ dustry, make it possible to-manufac­ ture a product that will keep without- spoiling, thus overcoming the . chief difficulty experienced in the past In using skim milk In this way. The method is described In department circular 404 C, Just issued and now ready for distribution. Special Culture Used. ; Concentrated skim milk must have an acidity high enough to keep it from spoiling. The ordinary lactic bacteria In milk do not produce suf­ ficient acidity for this purpose. . In the new method a special culture which develops a high acidity Is used. By this method the bureau has been able to develop an acidity In concentrated skim milk of 6 per cent, which is sufficient to keep the .product indefinitely without appreciable change. Many concerns are now making poultry and hog feed from skim milk concentrated by these Improved; methods. The product .usually sells from 3 cents a pound at the fac­ tory when sold In car lots to 4 cents In small packages. No difficulty has been experienced in disposing of large quantities, either to poultrymen and hog raisers In the vicinity of the plant or to jobbers who specialize In poultry feeds. Estimateci Cost of Production. At an estimated production cost of 1% cents per pound for the product, a price of 3 cents at the factory would net about 25 cents per hundred for skim milk, and at 4 cents the re­ turn would be about 58 cents. As a means of disposing of surplus skim milk this product has certain ad­ vantages,' says the bureau of dairy Industry. It Is a staple product with an established market It can be made at any season of the year and stored to supply a uniform demand, or it can be sold to jobbers whenever a suffi­ cient quantity for shipment has ac­ cumulated. Copies of the circular may. be ob­ tained, as long as the supply lasts, by writing to the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture1Washington, D.C. Three Good Methqds of , Treating^Oats for Smut Three methods of treating seed oats for control of smut have been suggest­ ed. In the formaldehyde treatment the grain is spread on a clean floor or canvas and sprinkled with a solu­ tion of. I pint of formaldehyde to. 40 gallons of water." The solution is ap­ plied at the rate, of three-fourths of a gallon to each bushel as the grain is shoveled and then the pile covered with a blanket or canvas for twp or three hours. After the seed has been spread to dry, it should be sown as soon as possible to avoid injury to germination. In the dry method, I pint of forinal- dehyde Is diluted In 10 gallons of wa­ ter. This being a stronger solutiori, only I pint per bushel is required and may be spread with a vapor sprayer, after which the grain I^ covered for two hours and then spread to dry. The dust treatment, though more ex­ pensive, has an advantage inasmuch as the grain may be treated at any; time before seeding, without impair­ ing the germination. The dust is pre­ pared by thoroughly mixing and pul­ verizing together 2' pounds of cor­ rosive sublimate and I pound of cop­ per sulphate tir blue stone, and dusted on, S ounces to each bushel of grain.

A Louisville young lady named Mise Flynn, had been hoarding her monev and had accumulated as much as $6,900 in "a little tin box." which she kept in her room. She and a young neighbor named Martin Chi man, and Martin was 17 year old. He had developed a thrifty mind and taking advantage of a conveni' ent occasion, aostracted $1,700 of the yountr woman’s hoardings'* and stated a bank account on his own hook. His arrest and confession followed and then Miss Flynn proved thBt she bad a heart. First off, she took the remainder of her savings and deposited them . in the same bank which had been selected by the youth, then ahe hied herself to court and entered plea for the boy. He had taught her to "believe in banks” she said, and she did not want to see him go to prison and associate with criminals. She wanted him to be given a good spanking and turn­ ed over to her sponsorship. The de­ cision of the court is not of record, but the chance was at hand to give encouragement in two directions. The young woman had learned how to take care of her monev; the court should have commended her for that. She had indicated opportunite to make a good citizjn out of a boy who had given wav to temptation, and the court should have permitted her to try her hand on him. Char­ lotte Observer. W h a t T h e F a r m e r C a n D o . If there were'some way by which ,the farmer coaid utilize all the kind Iy expressions 01 interest that are directed toward him, he would be in fine shape. The President, Congress, StateLegisIatures and big business men are all more or less absorbed in thinking out partical means for help­ ing the farmer. Meanwhile none of the penanceas. nostrums, plans or devices suggested are going to do. any good right away. None of these things will result in any better crops .this summer nor in higher prices. What, then, is the farmer to do? There is only one ,thing for him to do. But this one thing has much to recommend it. Produce the largest Crop possible on a given area of land :at the smallest cost—that is the for- fnula. The fanner who can-produce as much on one acre as Jhe 'has been raising on'an acre and a half will be getting, ahead even though prices a-ie not so favorable as they should be. If cotton is fifteen cents a pound, the farmer'will feel the cut ; Bharply. If he can iucrease paoduc tion 50 per cent, at the same post he will not be nearly so bad off. In* 'creased production without added cost is the immediate solution of the "farmer’s most pressing difficulties iV-Twin-City Sentinel. L o r g L o s t W e d d i n g R in g F o u n d . Twenty-five years ago Mrs. Jam es'McNeely, of Monroe, lost ; her wedding ring and had been lin­ kable to locate it. One day the past ’ week she saw a bright object in her :-yard and on investigation found . it was the ring lost a quarter of a xentury ago. She was so excited over the find that she dropped, a basket of eggs she was canying and ran to the phone and called her iusband and telling him of the recovery of the ring said “ We’ve got to take another bridal tour.” D R .

With all its faults, this is pro­ bably the best governed country in 'he world, and has been so for one hundred, and fifty years. But this does not mean that it will continue to be so unless our people realize |hat a government is composed of nspeople; and it is good.or bad Jus' in proportion to its keeping its '"dividual life good or bad.

C- ^ 'd you ever see a politician who "ot overdo the word “ service” running for office.—Ex. are arc'* came 'n like a lion and we Stuff6ady for l^e laia'1 to ,ts W o n ’t P r e v e n t N e w R o a d The Statesville Landmark ’ indi­ cates that comfort is taken in its city over the provision in the new State highway law that road con­ necting towns may not be discon­ nected or abandoned without con­ sent of local governing , bodies. That paper believes that it will pre­ vent discussed changes for a more direct routing of highway 75 be­ tween Mocksville and Taylorsville. In this connection it is stated editorally: “ The same amendment will pre­ vent the highway commission rout­ ing No. 75 away from Statesvilie a- cross country from Turnersburg or Harmono, instead of building into Statesville from Mocksville. But if the amendment is understood the commission can’t take No. 75 a- way from Statesville, the road now being routed that way. T hat is, that can't be done unless the town and county government authorities consent to severance.” This paper has never understood that the Highway Commission has considered the abandorment of one foot of its present highway through Statesville, especially after if made the present routing of 75 from Mocksville to Turnersbury or near­ by; Even if the cut-off which it is now conceded has been in the col­ lective mind of the commission, should be built and the number continued along this, route there would be no abandonment of road I^ lT ed ellt .^provided ^Jthe^cbtatp'is- sion contiued to keep1 that section of 75 between Statesville and Stony Point—which it certainly would not abandon, as it is a part of the road connecting directly county seats of Iredell and Alexander No 26 would still be as sw eetior travel­ ing whether under one number or two. There may be a difference in changing the number of road and a in changing the road itself, espe­ cially when the number change would not entail the abandoment of a single foot of the present high­ way but would result in giving a county a considerable additional mileage of state road. There is a distinct advantage in having a large mileage of state road and Iredell or any otner county. would finding lasting benefits in such acquiral. However, the State Highway Com­ mission would confer a benefit on all other counties along Highway 75 from W ake to Caldwell.by build­ ing a cut-off between Turnersburg and Stony Point and we daresay there would be no objection from any of these counties to giving this proposed link of new road an en­ tirely new number, witti the pre­ sent numbering of Route 75 con­ tinuing. This would no doubt be .doubly welcomed by many citizens of a large territory across north central Iredell which does not now a state road—and all -of the pro­ posed new road would be in Iredell. Our understanding of the pro­ visions of the new road law as ap plicable to ttiis situation is not quite the same as the Landm ark’s im­ pression. We have heard nothing about preventing renumbering or increasing mileage. Highway 75 is in fair way soon to become a route of great useful ness from Lexington eastward. The Dispatch would like to see the Landmard take up the battle for its increased usefulness on the west­ ern end.—The Dispatch.

He recently paroled a former bank cashier in the western section of the State and the man spent at least two months with his family. He is not seen at his old haunts and whether he has returned to prison is not known. The whole thing was involved, in secrecy and the fact of his parole was not given out by the Raleigh press or any newspaper correspondents at the capital. The past week Thomas E. Coop­ er, former Democratic chairman of the New Hanover board of educa­ tion a brother to former Democra­ tic .Lieutenant Governor W. B.

The next rn'ove will be an ex­ tension of the parole to probably 20 years and if the governor decides that he had better stick to his ori­ ginal resolution to refuse to pardon bank wreckers a friendly judge will probably be found somewhere that will invent some kind of stay exe­ cution to keep Cooper off the New Hanover roads Henry A.

The Fiist National Bank, of Warsaw, Duplin county, closed its doors the past week. T he reason for. closing is not given altho it is said that the books are in perfect condition and there is no charge of mismanagement on the part of the officers. 1 The bank had a capital $50,000 and a supposed surplus of $to.ooo.

Instead of having an army of nearly 2,000 men enrolled in the State highway departmrnt, with a cl.i-f drawing a salary of $15,000 a year as is the case in North Carolina, the Florida highway department has only 17 persons on its pay roll. It collects an'automobile and gasolina tax of $i:i,ooo,ooo at a cost of $8,000, builds its highways under the su­ pervision of the highway depart­ ment, utilizes its governor and the six members of his cabinet for most of the commissions auxiliary to State administration without extra salary, and summons its citizens as dollar-a-day men to complement the ex-officio members. , Florida people boast that the en­ tire State administration force at Tallahassee number only 345 per­ sons from the government down to the janitor and that there is no dead timber there or anywhere else in State government. • The State does hot owe a cent and has a $10,000,000 surplus.

Raleigh, March 8.—W hen the state legislature adjourned tonight more than 3,5000 bills had been in­ troduced ,n the 65 day period from January 5 when it convened. A- bout 1.200 bills became law. The members were actually in session 55 days but Sundays were counted in, bringing the sixty days constitutional period to a close last Saturday but the assembly continu ed on this week, meeting morning noon and night with exhausted spirit as the ’ members lay down their labors after many passages and slaughters of final pending le­ gislation today and tonignt. The last legislative act was for benefit of children. The assembly decreed uo child under i t years of age shall be required to work mare than eight hours a day or 48 hours a week This was the parting act of the house. . The senate’s farewell was to vote down every proposed salary in­ crease proposes for state officials. The Woltz $3 ,250,000 equaliza­ tion law was; the last sweeping measure enacted on the final day’s adjournment. I s H ig h w a y C o m m is s io n E x t r a v a g a n t ? The above question is being ask­ ed by the Rutherford News and others. The News says it wishes to make some suggestions and ask the people to do some thinking. “ The commission” says ,,the. Newsj ‘ 'is erecting small steel sighs on all all the principal highways of the State. Large adequate signs were on all our highways before the steel signsjeame into us. The former signs would have lasted five or more years.; They were of oak; They were large enough to be seen. At a sharp curve one usually saw, ‘Sharp Curve,.Danger’, on the new signs it is ’Curve,’ in many' in­ stances. I ‘ ’ These sigus cost money. The old ones tnusfbe taken down and the new ones erected. The old signs are discarded, probably. T he new ones costs the tax payerstnon- ey. "T he-m atter of surveying is bard to understand. W hen a road is improved, it is usually surveyed several times.

The campaign for the Democratr ic nomination for President; in 1928, conceded by all sensible per­ son to be an empty honor, is in full swing and the leaders of the sever­ al faction with alarm. W ith Governor Al Smith, of New York, an avowed candidate on the “ wet” ticket and William G. McAdoo, with Doheny ojl m oneyjn his pockets the candidate of the “drys” the campaign pro­ mises to be fast and furious and will in the end, and many believe, wind up like the debacle in Madi­ son Square Garden, 1926, in a dis­ graceful row. Smith, claims he can carry the wet Catholic States on the north like New York, Massachusetts and New Jersey and that the Solid South will still be solid just be­ cause they vote for anything with a Democratic label on it. Tbe governor’s claim is disputed by McAdoo who avows that the people will never put a liquor ad­ vocate and follower of the Catholic Pope in the W hite House, And so it goes. The leaders of the Democratic party are attem pt­ ing to conciliate the factions but this is believed to be a physical impossibility. . In just about a year the first presidential primary will be held in some of the western States and this accounts for the sudden waking up of the two leading Democratic can- dates for the nomination. —Union Republican. .. .. . , ...

Reports say that when it was thoughl the so called Australian ballot law would pass about sixty representatives moved to accept their counties from its working. These were Democrats, all of the Republican members being report­ ed against the diabolical measure. Several of the Republican now have that kind of an Australian ballot and it is the worst libel that 'has ever been perpetrated and the most open stealing measure that has ever been conceived. That so many representatives of Democra­ tic counties refused to accept it for their own people tells the tale with sufficient force to a people whose understanding and self respect has not been completely sacriced on the utter of partizanship. The people of that state regardless of patty connection have been demanding fair election law.

One of the legist known yet most In­ violable tenets of the mode is that fabrics and fashions must- always be diametrically opposite IrKeffectL Thus when the silhouette is invdlved and all sorts of-elaboration are sanctioned- by the mode, It Is the function of fabrics to be sedate,,-simple and comparatively In the background; when the mode be­ comes simple and severe It is the office of materials to enliven what might otherwise be a dull background by vivid and ciecorative-efFects., Ihasrnuch as !simplicity is certain to be the es­ sence of the spring fashions, writes a' Paris fashion correspondent In the New Torh Herald-Tribune, It becomes evident that the next is to be one of the seasons in which fabrics are highly significant The large prints of last summer will not be repeated this season because of the insistence upon slender lines. The Paris fabrlcants have submitted silks with smaller designs for the purpose of emphasizing the slim silhouette; in­ deed, as yon will observe from the following details of the important Paris fabric designers, the entire trend of spring materials Is to emphasize the return of the ubiquitous stream- line silhouette.'' Rodier. This designer, famed for his remark­ able weaves and combinations, sug­ gests that fancy fabrics will be uti­ lized chiefly for the bodices of frocks, while their skirts will be of contrast­ ingly plain materials. In' his' collec­ tion a number of palm patterns make their attractive appearance. The kasha family is\ well -represented here. Mus- likasha ts introduced—a thin, sheer silk and wool mixture—and Its brother, hindlkasha, which is half the weight of kasha. Again there-is kashatulla, a coarse basket weave for sports wear, as well as tnsllkasha, which Is a fabric like tussor in weave and made of silk and wool. Rodier exploits a basket, weave like a miniature of kashatulla In wool and calls it toile tusecla. For suits there is a pepper-and-salt woolen called Dialfic. Embroidered gold or silver patterns are. featured, princi­ pally In Moyen age designs, while stripes .and figures in woolen accom­ pany plain patterns. Bianchinl Ferier. x ’’ Here small floral patterns are very much in approval, and old rose Ts probably the most frequent color. Tiny forget-me-nots appear In foulards with a small silk woven dot included in the pattern. Some'of his chiffons- are prints with enormous roses in both conventiona.I and realistic patterns. The snakeskln'pattern taken from,the cobra comes in silver and In gold tin­ sel for the pattern. Drago satin is ap­ proved—a material with a shiny sur­ face and “flamlnga”-like back—flam- Inga is something like marocain and comes In two tones, plain and change­ able patterns. .. . 1 ■Chez Meyer et Cief fabrics seem to hate taken a definite step into tlje fanciful. Here we find lines that curve and “wiggle,” surfaces that display the charm of irregularity. Meyer et Cie.' Immutable lady you . might- haye fancied her. For there is to be a new cachet to ,the hats of spring,’and. you had better not glance so complacently at the musty hat boxes of Iasf year; lest you receive ,a disdainful Easter Sunday. And—mark this—the distinction be­ tween the new models and the ' milli­ nery of yesteryear Is not that the mod­ ern chapeaux are to have broad brims and beautiful trimmings. It Is not that the majestic millinery of the exquisite Victorian Is once again to bow grace­ fully in dur midst. Tou who have lis­ tened so often and.’so wearily to these attempts to grande-dqmeize tlfe hat mode cap take heart ‘ This gleesome forecast of hats that'are actually dif­ ferent will have nothing to do with those specious, predictions, p It-has to do with something much less tangible—Ihat fourtb dimension of the mode which is known'as atmo- Spherer or’ effect ■ Of course, you re­ member that the genesis ofythe clo- chlan epoch was a companionable and liberal period known- generally as the era of youth.

Each .of these Items was coexpressive—each was a symbol of truculent youth, and, save only the cloche, each has passed from the picture. But the cloche, if you will overlook certain minor and unimportant lapses,' has reigned over a complacent milli­ nery realm ever since' its first royal acceptance. It has never been sedate, it has never been matronly, and—for this you may be thankful—it has never gone Victorian grande dame. Perky, jaunty, youthful, these have been the qualities of its chic, and they are Just the qualities you must eschew—sadly if you are young, and pleasantly if you are matronly—if yqu want to bask.

If the flowing robes of the new season are to be Grecian In .their simplicity, the spring hats will be Roman in tbiir- austerity. To the glory that was Greece you may add the hauteur that was ’ Rome. In a word, the jaunty cloche of these many springs is to be succeeded by a Jiat which, while con­ forming generally to its measurements, will substitute an undeniably, r^gal air for the democratic atmqspbere oft the clochian typC. It wilt’"be far more- graceful than the grande Jame idea— it will, breathe more aristocracy thanf the Very companionable, models of earlier seasons. Tou might call It a happy compromise between the oppos-, Ing schools of modistes^-the elegantes and the modernists.

Assurance of a Heavenly Home (Jno'. 14:1-3 L The announcemWt concerning the death of Christ, accompanied with the shaping of events which pointed* to a speedy accomplishment of the same, shattered the disciples’ hope. The Lord told them that He was going away and that they could not follow Him. This brought great grief to their hearts. They perhaps began to doubt His Messiahshtp, but He did not leave them comfortless. 1. He 'asked them to believe and trust in Himself as God (v. I). ''“Te believe in God, believe also in me." Faith in the God-man, Christ Jesus, will steady the heart, no ma.t- ter how great the sorrow or intense the grief. If we will but place the cares and burdens of life upon Him our tears shall be turned into joy and our despondency transformed into a radiant hope. • 2. He assured them that He was going to prepare a place for them in His Father’s house (v. 2). He assured them that that place would have an abundance of room, for there were “many mansions” in His Fatherts house. We should learn from this that heaven is not an imaginary place. It Is a prepared place for a prepared people. 3. He assured them that He would come again and escort them tb heaven (v. 3). Jesus will not wait for His own to come to Him, but will personally come back to the earth and call forth from the graves those who have^lied In the faith (I Thess. 4:16, 17), and trans­ form living believers and take them all to be with Himself in the heavenly home for evermore. When He said, “I will come again,” He no. doubt meant His personal, bodily and literal return to this eai'th. ’ - I I .fAssurancehf the Resurrection of the.'Body (H Cor. 5 fl-10). That which nerved Paul for his conflict even when physical death threatened was the as­ surance that even such violence would but Lastl^n his presence with the Lord. As he faced the uncertain future he was-sure: “ I. That his present body wasTonly a tabernacle, a tent In which he lived temporarily (v. I). Though this'tent were destroyed he had nothing (to fear, as there was a building to take its place. This house which is to take the place of the-tent is . (I) From ’God. ’ (2) Not made with hands. (3) It is eternal. Our natural body at best crumbles to dust , in about three score arid ten years, but the resurrection body shall abide forever. (4) It is to be “in the heavens.” .2. He earnestly longed for the change (w , 2-4).. The human /person-, ality instinctively shrinks from a state of disembodiment, but the intelligent Christian earnestly longs for the ex­ change. of the natural body for the ,spiritual. We long to put off the per­ ishable and take on the imperishable. 3. This plan was wrought by God (v. D). ■ "God did not fashion the, body for death, But for life. God is not the God of the dead but'of the living. 4. Believers should be of good cour­ age (vv. 6-8). 1 While we live in this bo’dly we are absent from the Lord, but because of the Holy Spirit dwelling within us. we confidently walk by faith, being •more anxious to 'be absent from ,the body and present with the Lord. ' 5. The believer’s chief concern in this life shopld be to-please the Lord (vv. 9, J.0). ; v Nothing matters—health, f sickness, strength, weakness, fame or obscurity, friends”or loneliness—provided at the end of the journey we hear the, Lord’s "well done,' good and faithful servant.” ill.

He decided that WNU Senrltfe he could, and must To remain In his present state of suspense a moment longer than he need do was unthink­ able. In a surprisingly short time he was In the studio building, facing the man Sam had called Henry, a yawning night elevator man who regarded him and his questions with a pessimism partly due to the lack of sleep and fatigue. These combined influences led him to making short work of get­ ting rid of this unkempt and unseason­ able caller. . ; “No, sab,” he said. "Miss Mayo don’ receive no callers at dis yere hour. No, sah, Sam don’ come on tell eight o’clock. No, sah, I catn’t take no messages to no ladies what ain’t out dey beds yit. I got to perteck dese yere folks, I has,” he ended austerely. The caller peeled a bill from his ever-ready roll, and the face of the building’s guardian nngel changed and softened. "P’haps I could Jes’ knock on Miss Mayo’s do’, ” he suggested after a thought-filled Interval. “That's all I want,” agreed Laurie. “Knock -at her door and ask her if Mr. Hevon may call at nine and take her out to breakfast. Tell her he has something very important to say to her.” “Yaas, sah.” The guardian was all humility. He accepted the bill, and almost simul­ taneously the elevator rose out of sight The interval before its return was surprisingly short, but too long for the nerves of the caller. Laurie, pacing the lower hall, filled it with apprehensions and visions which drove the blood from his heart He could have embraced Henry when the latter appeared, wearing an expansively re­ assuring grin. “Miss Mayo she say, ‘Yaas,’ he briefly reported. , Under the force of the' nervous re­ action he experienced, Laurie actual­ ly caught the man’s arm. “She’s there?” he jerked out. “You’re sure of it?” “Yaas, sah.” Henry spoke. sooth­ ingly. By this time he had made a diagnosis of the caller’s condition which agreed with that of the night- watchman Laurie had just Inter­ viewed. “She say, ‘Yaas,’ ’’ he repeated. “I done say what you toi’ me, and she say, ‘Tell de genman, Yaas,’ jes like dat.” “All right.” Laurie nodded and strode off. For the first time he was breathing naturally and freely. She was there. She was safe. In a little more than an hour he would see her. In the meantime his urgent needs were a bath and a change of clothing. As soon as he was dress,ed he would go' back to the studio building and keep watch In the corridors until she was ready. Then, after breakfast, he would personally conduct-her to the security of Louise Ordway's home. Louise need not see her, if'she did not feel up to it, but she would sure­ ly give.-her asylum after hearing Lau­ rie’s experiences of the night. That'was his plan. It seemed a good one. I^e did not admit even to himself that under the air of sang­ froid he wore as a garment, every in­ stinct in hlm,,was crying out for the sound of Doris’ voice. Also, as he hurried along, he was conscious that a definite change was taking place In his attitude toward Herbert Bansome Shaw. Slowly, reluctantly, but fully, -he had now accepted thd fact =Jhat “Bertie” represented a force that must be reckoned with. •• He inserted the latch-key into the door of his dpartment with an inward prayer that Bangs would not be vis­ ible, and for a mdment he Iiopedf, it had been granted. But when he en­ tered their common’ dressing-room he found his chum there, in the last stages of his usual careful toilet. He greeted EaurIe without surprise or comment, in the detached, absent man­ ner he had assumed of late, and Lau­ rie hurried into the bathroom and, turned on the hot water, glad of the excuse to escape even a tete-a-tete. That greeting of Bangs’ added the final notes to the minor symphony life was playing-for him this morning. As he lay back in the hot water, relax- , ing his stiff, bruised body, the thought came that possibly he' and Bodney were really approaching the final breaking point. Bangs was not or­ dinarily a patient chap. He was, too impetuous, and high-strung for that. But he had been wonderfully patient with this friend' of his heart. If it were true that the friendship was dy­ ing under the strain put upon it, and Laurie knew' how possible this- was, and how swift and intense were Bangs’ reactions, life Iienceforthf how­ ever full it ,might be, would lack an element that had been singularly vital and comforting. He tried to think of what future days Would- be without Bangs’ exuberant- personality to fill them with w o ^ and color; but ,he could not picture them; and as the effort merely added to the gloom that enveloped him, he abandoned it and again gave himself up to thoughts of Doris. As he' hurried Into his clothes a strong tempfStion came to him to tell Bangs the whole story. Then Bangs would understand everything, and I he, Laurie, would have the benefit of Rodney’s advice and help In-untying Doris’ tangle. Doris! Again she swam into the foreground of his consciousness with a vividness that, made his senses tingle. He was sitting on a low chair, lacing hii shoes, and his fingers shook as tie finished the task. He dressed with almost frantic haste, urged on by a fear that,despite his efforts, was shaping itself into a mental panic. Then, hair-brushes in hand, he faced his familiar mirror, and recoiled with an exclamation. Doris was not there, but her win­ dow was, and hanging from its center catch was something bright that caught his eye and instantaneous rec­ ognition. It was a. small Boman scarf, with a narrow, vivid stripe. - C H A PTER X I , D oris T abes a Journey Within “five minutes he was in the studio building hcross the square, frantically punching the elevator bell. Outwardly ^he showed no signs of the anxiety that racked him, but present­ ed to Sam, when that appreciative youth stopped his elevator at the ground floor, the sartorial perfection which Sam always vastly admired and sometimes dreamed of imitating. But- for such perfection Sam had no eyes today.; ' At this early hour—it was not much more than- half-past eight—lie had brought down only two passengers, and no one but.Laurie was waiting for the upward journey.

Instantaneous Recognition. two tenants of the building had walked far enough toward its front entrance to be, out of earshot, Sara grasped Laurie’s arm and -almost dragged him into the car. As he did so, be- hissed four words; “She gone, Mist’ Devon!" “Gone! Where? When?” Laurie had not expected this. He realized now that he should have done so. His failure to take In-the possi­ bility of tier going was part of his in­ fernal optimism, of his inability even now to take her situation at its face value. Sam was answering his ques­ tions: . “ 'Bout eight, jes’ after Henry went and I come on. An aut’mobile stop in front de do’, an’ dat man wld de eyes he come In. I try stop him fum takinr de car, but he push-me on one side an’ order me up, like he was Wilson hlsself. So I took him to de top flo’. But when we got dere an’ he went to Miss Mayo’s do’, I jes’ kep’ de car right dere an’ watch him,” “Good boy. What happened?” . “He knock an’ nuffin’ happen. Den he call out, ‘Doris, Doris.’ jes’ like' dat, an’ she come an’ talk to him; but she didn't open de do’.’’ “Could you hear what else he said?’. “No, sah. After dat-he whisper-to her, hissin’ Ukp a snake.” • Laurie set his teeth. ’ Even Sam frit the ophidian In Shaw. “Go on,” he ordered. “Den I reckon Miss Mayo she put on a coat, an’ dat man wait. I fought he was gwine leave, an’ I sho’ was glad. But he stood dere, waitin' an’ grinnin’ nuff to split his bald.” Laurie recognized the grin. “ ‘Bout two-three minutes she come out,” Sam went on. “She had a big fur coat an'-a veil on. She.look aw­ ful pale, an’ when dey got In de el’va- tor she didn’ say .a word. Dey was’n’ nobody else ,in de car, an’ it seem Iak I couldn’t let tier go off nohow, with­ out sayin’ somethin’. So I say, ‘You gwine away. Miss Mayo?’ De man he look at me mighty- cold an’ hard, an’ she only nOd.” “Didn’tjshe speak at all?1 “No, sah. She ain’t say a word. She jes’ stood stiff- an’ still, an’ he took her out to de car, an’ dey bofe got in.”. “Was it a Umouslne, a closed car?” , “Yaas, sah." “Did the man himself drive it?” “No, sah. He sat inside wld Mlss Mayo. The-man what drove it was younger.” “What did he look like?” “I couldn’t see much 0' him. He had a big coat on, an’ a'cap. But his hair was yallah.” Laurie recognized the secretary. “Which way did they go?” “East” . They were standing on . the top landing by this time, and Laurie strode forward. ‘TH take a look around her rooms. Perhaps she left some message.” Sam accompanied him, and though he had not desired this continued companionship, Laurie found a cer­ tain solace In it. In his bumble way this black boy was Doris’ friend. He was doing his small part now to help her, if, as he evidently suspected, there was something sinister in her departure. Entering the familiar studio, Laurie looked around It with a pang. Unlike the quarters of Shaw, it remained un­ changed. The room, facing north as It did, looked a little cold in the early light, but it was still stamped with the impress of its former occupant. The flowers he had given her. only yes­ terday hung their heads In mod­ est welcome, and half a dozen eye-flashes revealed half a dozen homely little details (that were full of reassurance. Here, open and face down on the reading-table, was a book she might have dropped that minute. There was the long mirror before which she brushed her wonder­ ful hair and, yes, the silver-backed brushes with which she brushed it On the writing-table were a pencil and a torn sheet of paper, as if she had just dashed off a hurried note. In short, everything In the room suggested that the owner, whose pres­ ence still -hung about it, might return at any instant. And yet, there in the window, where he had half jokingly told her to place it, hung the brilliant syfnbol of danger which he himself had selected. He ,walked over and took it from the latch. In dAing this, he discov­ ered that only half the scarf hung there, and that one end was jagged, as If roughly and hastily cut off. He put the scarf into his pocket. As he did so, his pulses leaped. Finned to its folds was a bit of paper, so small and soft that even the inquisi­ tive eye of Sam, following his every motion, failed . to detect It. Laurie turned to the" black boy. “We’d better get out of here,” he suggested, trying to speak carelessly and leading the way as he spoke.’ “Miss Mayo may be back at any mo­ ment.” Sam’s eyes bulged till they rivaled Shaw’s. “You don’ t’Ink she gone?” he stam­ mered. “Why should we think she has gone?” Laurie tried to "grin at him. “Perhaps she’s merely taking an au­ tomobile ride, or an early train for a day In the country. Certainly nothing here looks as if she had gone away for good. People usually pack, don’t they?" Sam dropped his eyes. His face, human till now, took on its familiar, sphinxlike look. He followed “Mist’ Devon” into the elevator in silence, and started the car on its downward journey. But as his passenger was about to depart with a nod, Sam pre­ sented him with a reflection to take away, with him. (TO BE CWiritTOED.)

One of the things that helps the American farmer produce half of the world’s food supply -Witlt one-tenth of thg world’s man-power is \tlie long-row vegetable garden, says B. L. Weaver of the olericulture division, college of agriculture, University of Illinois. “The chief item in vegetable produc­ tion is man labor. Long rows spaced to allow the use of horse or tractor- draivn tools greatly increases the amount of vegetables that one man can tend properly. If sod strips are left at-the ends of, farm gardens, almost all hand labor may be eliminated. For ihe small, long-row garden the wheel hoe will greatly facilitate cultivation. Enthusiasm Lacking. “Accustomed to out-of-door tasks, the farmer lacks the enthusiasm that his city brother manifests in garden­ ing. The farmer Is inclined to look upon the garden as a'necessary evil, and often confines it to a poorly chosen site of inadequate area, and leaves the care of it to the wife. The value of a garden should ,give it the best site available and an area suffi­ cient to supply the needs of the fam­ ily throughout the season. “In a Missouri experiment, with a large and a small garden, over a three- year period, net yearly average re­ turns were: for the large garden, on#- fourth acre, $134.17; for the small gar­ den, one-twentieth acre, $47.2S. On the basis of man labor, these gardens paid $1-50 and §1.63 respectively for every hour spent In their care. In'- addition to its economic value, the garden'furnishes a supply o. nealthful, nutritious food of the highest. Quality available for consumption. Adequate PIan Essential. “The best results cannot .be ob­ tained without an adequate plan for the garden operations. Stfch a plan Is given in Circular 278 of the college of agriculture, University of IIlipois. Approximate planting, dates, the kinds and varieties to use, the amounts of seed required, and a detailed plan aire given. By a little study, the plan may bp adapted to gardens of varying size and shape. ' “Variety selection, companion and succession cropping, good seed* and good plants, soil fertility, cultivation, and Insect and disease control are all factors In the making-of a productive longrrow garden on the farm or the city lot Neglect of one or more of the factors mentioned- will decrease the productivity of the garden. A good site, a good season, plus a little study and work assures a garden‘that one can be proud of.” Some Vegetables Should Be SoWh Early in Spring The seed of certain kinds of vege­ tables should be sown early in the spring for best results, states "W. T. Macoun, Canadian horticulturist. One should be prepared to hegln opera­ tions In the garden as soon as the soli is dry enough. Those plants of which the leaves are eaten which should be started early are lettuce, spinach, mustard and cress, and there Is little danger of planting them too soon. Other vegetables which are grown for their bulbs ,or roots may also be planted at the/ same time, though they are not quite so hardy as those' grown for their leaves.,. These are onions, carrots, beets, parsnips and early turnips. Peas are about as hardy as these but may rot if the weather turns. cold and wet. How­ ever, it usually pays to plant peas at the same time as the others, as earlyv sown peas give a much better crop'as a rule than if sown late. Other vege­ tables which should be started early, to get best results are cabbages, cauliflowers, tomatoes and melons. The latter will not statrd any frost, hence the plants must be protected in hotbeds or cold frames or in the bouse until danger of frost is • over. However, cabbage and cauliflower, if well hardened off before setting out, will stantl several degrees of frost. Poor soils mean - poverty-stricken farm homes.» * * * Sow beans every ten days. The first bean crop is the best It doesn’t pay to make the same crop bear too much. . . .

Little potatoes’are no good for seed, the Ohio agricultural experiment sta­ tion says; unless you know they come from high-yielding disease-free hills. . * -* » There is an old~fcaylng that the best “catch crop” is to catch up with the weeds.

It In flavor. to R eturn P ro fit Certain Trees of Low Valuer Should Be. Cut. ' Harvest time In the farm woodlot Is here. Winter is the logical time for the farmer to cut his fuel, fence posts and such timber as he may need, says F. G- Wilson, extension forester at the Wisconsin College of Agriculture. “Weeding” the woodlot should be practiced when the wood is harvested. Certain trees, such as scarlet and black oaks, ironwood, red maple and pin cherry, have such IMow^value- that they should be considered as weeds. Cutting them for fuel and permitting other .and more valuable trees to grow In their place is advised by the for­ ester. , The farm woodlot may be made to yield a profit if given proper care, he states. For best results the woodlot must not be grazed and It should be protected from fires as much as pos­ sible. Unsound and badly formed ■trees should be removed atfd used aa fuel. Overmature trees have reached or passed the point of greatest value and should be cut and disposed of to the best advantage, either as timber or fuel. Another advantage of removing trees olj Inferior varieties- Is to pre­ vent them from seeding In the open­ ings. Where young growth Is lacking, seedlings of valuable species such as walnut, black cherry, red oak, white oak, ash, basswood and pine may be placed in the vacant areas, of these varieties seeded there. Trees which are standing too thick­ ly will grow spindly and many will die and decay. Thinning them, saving the best, should result In more tim­ ber of a much higher quality. Waste land, of which there is some on most farms, can be profitably utilized If timber is'grown'on It and given the proper care, \ in thfe opinion of the specialist ~ Sweet Clover Harmful in th e Alfalfa Fields Farmers who wish to sell a good quality of alfalfa seed cannot afford to allow sweetf clover plants to remain in the crop. A few hours or days spent In removing these plants will be well repaid in the price received for alfalfa seed. The plants can be pulled or cut below the surface of the ground. Most buyers of seed object to the presence oif sweet clover in al- falfa^and a small amount of it may re­ sult' In ^rejected shipments, loss of sales and various items of expense. Buyers of certified seed- expect to receive good seed and not a mixture. Sweet clover is a hindrance to the production - of superior alfalfa seed. Through the extensive - planting of sweet clover the seeds have -become very general in the ground and it has .become increasingly difficult''to grow alfalfa without some sweet clover ap­ pearing In the seed crop either from volunteer plants in the field or from handling the alfalfa after sweet clover. i , Factis for Poultiymen FoundJn Experiments Extensive investigations in breed­ ing and feeding of poultry were car­ ried on by the bureau of animal in­ dustry, United States Department of Agriculture,- during the , last fiscal year, according to a report of the chief of “that bureau. In experiments with Rhode Island EeiIs and Single Comb White Leghorns' for increased egg pro= 'duction, there was a higher propor­ tion of 200-egg -records than during any previous year. ^ OJber experiments with poultry In­ volved chick mortality, hatchatjillty and fertility of eggs, Inheritance of egg production, and various experi-. ments in feeding.- for egg production. Id feeding tests-for egg production, it was found that omitting limestone, a shell-forming ingredient, from the ra- tjfn, reduced egg production 50 -per ce n t. ■ Soy Beans Are Better Protein Feed Than Gorn It is usually a good practice to sow soy beans with corn when the com is to be hogged off, because the bean, supply is a better. protein feed than com, and for this reason the soys fire worth more than the corn they displace In the crop. From a soH fertility standpoint' the beans would-not have a high value, though there might be some. It depends' on conditions a good deal. On very poor land or land very IoW in nitro­ gen and hhmus^the soys would have •mqre value; but on good corn land which will grow 40 to 50 bushels of com' per acre, the beans would be the most likely to have derived about all the nitrogen they 1 contain from the soil, and hence there would not be any new supply of nitrogen added' to the fcoil. - I High-YieldingPearTree The Bartlett pear produces most of its fruit-on sprirs which ■'ordinarily livi^for many years..

Some of these persons have large herds and flocks, while others are beginners, but all have agreed to follow the depart­ ment’s recommendation in using pure­ bred sires for all classes of live stock raised. Three New Counties Enter. The report, which summarizes prog­ ress to January I, 1927, shows th at1 three new counti.es took up the work during the last three months. These new centers of activity were Pisca­ taquis, Maine j Breathitt,; Kentucky, and Cascade, Montana. In tha last- named cownty the 15 newly enrolled participants owned among them more than 1,000 cattle and 3,000 sheep. . i During the last three months’ pe­ riod of activity Campbell county, Ken­ tucky, of which Gordon Bv. Nance is county agent, qualified for the honor roll of counties containing 100 or more live-stock owners enrolled In this pro­ gressive means for improving the do­ mestic animals in the country. Tha list of such counties, several -of which have more than 500 persons so en­ rolled, ’ now totals .44 distributed among 10 states. Outstanding Achievement. The outstanding achievement dur­ ing the calendar year in the better-, sires campaign was the success of Union county, Kentucky, in eradicat­ ing all grade and scrub bulls, thereby being the first county in'the,TJni^d Slates to achieve this much-sought distinction. Persons participating in the campaign receive a suitably en­ grossed certificate of recognition and also, on request, an attractive barn sign entitled “Pure-Bred Sires.Exclu­ sively Used on This Farm.” It is lithographed on heavy weather-proof cardboard and resembles a metal tab­ let. Further details concerning the conduct and progress of the work may­ be obtained fisom .county agricultural agents or from the bureau of nriimal industry, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Alsike and Soy Beans Good as Protein Feed , Many4 farmers are needing a hay crop that will afford a good supply of protein, other than alfalfa and red clover. These two legumes require a nonacid soil, but not every farm Is in this condition. And not every own­ er is financially, able to apply^enough lime ■so' that the soil will raise suffi­ cient protein hay for .his. feeding needs. Fortunateiy, there are two good le­ gumes that will help out a farmer, who finds" himself in this fix. These are alsike clover and soy beans. Both will grow in a relatively acid SOilil and both are able to hold their own as a protein feed with their prouder relatives, alfalfa and red clover. Plant alsike and soy beans for hay till you Canj have your_ farm limed all over, by applying a little each year as your funds jvill allow. That’-s good business. On the fields that are limed suffi­ ciently,. alfalfa and red clover may be grown. \ Sudan Grass Furnishes , Good Midsummer Pasture H. D. Hughes and F. S. Wilkihs are the authors of a new bulletin jiist pub-. Iished by the’ Iowa' agricultural 'ex­ periment station, Ames, which re­ ports tlje results : and\ ,conclusions reached JfQlIowing 14 years, of obser- vationr'aod experimental work with sudan grass. The new bulletin No. ;233,. is entitled, “Sudan Grass.” Copies will .be. sent to any one inter­ ested ,upon request” to the Bulletin Section, Iowa,State Colleger At6ea. Sudan grass is one of the Jiest emer­ gency, nonleguminous crops to use for hay or pasture In Iowa, the bulletin declares. Among the strong points found for this crop,' rfre: 'its heavy yield Vf foi'age, low seed cost, ability to furnish midsummer pasture, ? ex­ treme droutlT resistance, eas'e’: and cheapness of growing, dependability, adapability to almost any-soil £tad th4 long period over which it may be sown- following corn planting. . / / Get a stump a day, It will help make the farm pay. , > ' / • * *Good care and" regular overhauling Will materially extend the life, and add t,o the usefulness of farm equip­ ment V v . • • . * * *. - • ■ Head lettuce cannot stand hot'dry weather- so the plants should be started- early ln a hotbed or cdldframe,- hardened off by leaving' tile glass off during mild weather. /•; ' • * * r ■; ■ From a. soil fertility standpoint, not much dependence could be, placed’ on soy beans; grown in' corn.

There was an effort on, the part of some of the prisoners to break jail last week but they were de­ tected before getting away. Mr1 John I. Woodruff died at his home 4 miles from Mocksville Wed­ nesday evening, M arch 19th. A fter a long illness, at the advanced age of 80 years. Mr. Woodruff was boru Feb. 4, 1822, in Y adkin coun­ ty, near Jonesville, but had resided in Davie for a number of years He is survived by a widow and four children, S. A. and W. T..

See their party annihilated had bet­ ter steer clear of the Smith ship and the liquid platform. What can be more furious than a repudiated reformer?—^Exl No Announcement. Iu the city campaign, up to the °hr of going to press, there were 1,0 republicans announced to man- ®8e democratic cotnpaigns.—Ham- t°a County Herald. The pictures of men who are sending $80 messages by telephone 0 London are a trifle solemn.— dhe Savansah Press. ’ When Thieves Fall Out Union Republican. By actual count it is said that there were exactly 106 Democratic lawyers in Raleigh at one time the past week who were candidates for the four judgships and the four 50- licitorsbips that the legislature was expected to create. The members of the legislature fell out among themselves as practically every law yer expected to be appointed a judge or solicitor and then Hoss W atts and Will Neal could uot ar­ range the districts to take care of them aiid^ as a result the whole thing went to the scrap heap. Eut the legislature went ahead and passed a bill giving the gover­ nor power to appoint six emergency judges for all time two of them however not to be named unless the work demands it. The truth of the m atter is the work does not demand any hew judges at all but it is safe to say fhat Governor McLean will appoint the whole half dozen. This means six more missionaries up and down the State sowing the seed for his race for the United States senate if Senator Simmons ever gives up the ghost. Thebevo or emergency judges have been a joke to the State for the past two years but it see.ms that the legislators could not get togeth­ er on any new districts and the governor got in behind them and told them that this was the big idea and it went over. Already the name of four members of the leg­ islature are being suggested for the emergency.-judges office and -it- is safe to say that they will land. T hereshouldbe a law enacted orohibiting a member of the legis­ lature, from accepttng an office , of which he was one of the creators. • Biggest Snow Of All Times. Since the recent big snow that seemed to have been goneral thru- out the State, people have been dis- discussing other big snowfalls of the past. The show the past week was from 10 to 24 inches deep in number of places in the State and few places in the extreme east, es­ caped the storm. However very little suffering was evident' and it is the general opin­ ion of those who know, that the snow evident and it is the general opinion of those who know, that the snow was worth millions of dollars to N orth Carolina. Farm ­ ers tell us that it was the very thing that wheat and other small grain needed, health crusaders tell us that it killed, out many germs which the human family would have been affliqted this coming summer and it is a well known fact that the snow greatly replenish the wells and water courses, the wells in many places being almost en­ tirely dry. But back to the biggest snow of all time. W . J. ArmfiehJ, an 84- year-old resident of H igh Point, says that the recent 20-inch snow in High Point was a mere , gesture as compared with the one, that fell in this section in, January 1856. A ccordingto Mr. Armfield the snow remained on the ground ap­ proximately a month in Guilford county, and had a level depth of three feet, with drifts of four to eight feet. It a cut near Deep river, he averred, the snow mea­ sured 40 feet, the hole in the ground being completely filled. Trains were unable to run for a week and all traffic was at a stand still. “ I remember,” the aged man narrated, “ trying to go a mile from home on muleback. Rifts in the'snow were so deep that the mule could not go through it. That was some snow. ” . “ The Board of Education” “ A Cut Needed” “ Time To Change.” This humble scribe has been informed that Mr. A. T. Graht in­ troduced two bills concetiiiug the Davie county school problem. One bill is reported to be slicing off about ,$600 of Prof. Bradley’s salary. T heotherbillconcerningtheschoolsystem w asto put M. C. Ijames and Ernest Boyles on the Board of Education to sit with the present board. ■ We hear that both bills were killed. After having learned of the death of these two bills,- we feel inclined to ask a few questions and give what we think are the proper answers. W hy did the men who went to Raleigh not take the entire Davie Countv Democratic Executive Committee with tnera? So far as we have been able to learn, there was but one member of this committee who made the trip as a member of the defense party. (In defense of the present rnle ot four.) No doubt these men knew very well that the majority of the Democratic Executive Committee is opposed to things being run as they are. We thiuk that.is the reason why they didn’t throw out the “ life-time1’-office holding trip to them. They didn’t need some of the Executive Committee) hence they took the easy handled ones along. Had they taken all of them along, we fear some would have fallen by the wayside. W hy not cut off some of Prof. Bradley’s salary? It seems to us that he either needs a cut in his salary or he needs to quite serving as past­ or of the Presbyterian church. As we see it, he cannot give all his time to the school wbrk ot' Davie county and serve as pastor of a church, neither can he give all his time to his church work and serve as super­ intendent of the schools of Davie county. Davie county needs an all time Superintendent of schools. The work is too ipuch for a "two job’ ’ man. If he is not a half time Superintendent,, why not? W hat is wrong with M. C. Ijames? They say Ijames would have been a little bit contrary. Perhaps some of them recall the days when Ijames served as County Commissioner and held their “ money thirsty feet to the fire.” As we see it, Mr. Ijames would have been a great addition to the Board. D uringthesedaysof high tax rates, we con­ sider Mr. Iiames the very man for the place. He would have held down his end of the plank and they knew it, therefore, they said unto “ Raleigbites.” “ wait until the storm is past.” “ W ait until the sea gets calm.” And thev didn’t want Boyles did they? Well we wonder why he could not have filled his choir with credit to himself and his county. H e never has been a banker, so we feel quite-sure he would have held on to the school tax money and seeii that it was spent out economically Surely Boyles knows the financial condition of Davie county well en­ ough to know how to help dish out its school fund. Never mind, the-y knew Boyles and knew what he stood for aud will continue to stand for. 1 “ No sir, please don’t give us Boyles for we know what he will do,” some of the gang perhaps, cried; Political Talks And Preacbing Some of the people sent up a.great howl when Mrs. Kennen went out last spring and summer and made aisfeyr.italks, .at-JIepubli.ban con.ven ventions, • They saM ~Dainb^dImi£h»ifId^ officer to run all over the State aud make speeches to the Republicans. No, Davie cannot affort it. We are not able to hire speech makers for neither party and pay them out of the tax money. We difn’t think that we are able to pay a man to Superintend our Schools and him go out and preach a sermon to his, or any other congregation during the days be should be giving all of his time to the school work. If I hire myself to the county, it is my duty to give all of my time to the. work of the county.- So why not ask that we-have an all time superintend­ ent of schools. 1 The Ruling Few. We, as I see it. need to give m ire thought as to who composes the County Board of Education. The school system that we are trying to run here in this county is costing too much to be laughed about. Thc- school tax hits the tax payers of this county a hard blow, especially in tne special ‘ tax districts. Some of the farmers have been hit hard by the special tax to run the consolidated schools. The Board of Education is the most important and expensive Board in the county. Things sb o u ld b em ad eeq u alb y th isb o ard b u tth ey are not. The children in Calahaln, Clarksville,.Fultou and Mocksville townships have to walk to school through mud and rain. But look on tne other side, please. W efind thatth eco u h ty h as bought trucks-to haul the children to school in other Townships.' W here did they get the money to buy these trucks with?- It is unfair to have one boy to ride to school in one township and make the boyjWalk to school through mud, snow rain and bail in another. How can we stand for such any longer? Why not put a stop to it now. There is no use for us to wait another day. We have all stodd back too long now. Remember these words, “ why sit ye idle.” “ A Demacrat Who W ants-Things Done Fair And Square.” Top - Dressing Small Grain is Profitable. Last fall a considerable increase in acreage was needed to wheat and, oats in North Carolina and Virginia and, although, a considerable a- mount of fertilizer was used before the small grain, was sown, it has been shown by experiments that top dressing small grain increases the yields very profitably. Qn fields of small grain having pale color signifies the need of an application of some form of am­ monia for better growth. Thismay be accomplished by broadcasting from 75 to 125 pounds of sulphate of ammonia or nitrate of soda when the plants are dry. These applica­ tions should not be put on when the plants are wet as considerable burr ­ ing of tno foliage may take place. The time to apply these materials is when the plants begin to'm ake new growth in the spring in order to get the full benefit of the ferti­ lizer: If put on later, the present crop may not succeed in making as good a growth as is wanted, vet, the fertilizer may,not be lost as the sue-, ceeding crops will have a chance to use it. Where the right amount of com­ plete fertilizer- was not used in the fall, it will also pay to top-dress with: a complete fertilizer. In order that the grain may fruit and fill out pr< • perly, there should be a plentiful supply of phosphates, and in cases where the weather conditions or soil Conditions are favorable for disease to appear, potash will be of great help in affording the plants to great­ er resistence. In most of the soils of these states nitrogen is a limited factor. This material is cheaper this year than for a long time. No mistake will be made in giving tSe small grain crop the necessary plant food for larger acre yields. W. P. YOUNG. Mocksville High School.

If Aaron Shapiro gets a million dollars out of Henry Ford he will earn every penny he gels. Henry is like some Mocksville folks— mighty tight. ’ If the taxpayers are satisfied with what it is taking to run the public schools in : Davie county, the editor of The Record w ill try to get along somehow, or other. The gentlemen who took delight in cussing out the groundhog du r­ ing the beautiful February weather, haven’t had much to say about the hog since the big snow in March. - Why should we woriy about be- 'fe g surrounded by undertaking Shops; When we reach the point where we need one of these gentle. .Jien we won’t know anything a- bout it. \ .................. - A man don’t have to be a lead­ ing member of: a church to be a hypocrite.

But few people want the tax rate raised, and yet there are a few who would like for the county to add extra expense if a few deserving Democrats could land a soft job at a big salary, and let the poor taxpayer foot the bill Col. W. K. Clement informs the editor that he has thrown his hat in the ring for Mayor of this lovely Village. So far as we know there is-no other candidate in the field without the present mayor( means ^tiiFmiake the race again. We would like to know how - all those who fun on the town ticket stand on the question of sel.ing the city’s power rights to the Southern Pub-, lie Utility Company. It ta k esalo to f money to keep up two or three hundred miles of county roads, if the school tax can be cut about 35 cents, and fif­ teen cents of this amount added to the roads, it' will be possible for them to be put in fairly good shape, so that they can be traveled over next winter. The roaid proposition is a big one, and the gentlemen Who ?ire responsible for them have the sympathy of a malority of the people. The editor of The Record is not responsible for the views of any correspondent. Sometimes we a- gree With what they say and some­ tim es’we we do not. The columns of our paper are open to anyone who wants to use them, provided, ofi course, that' they write articles that will not lay us liable to a suit for a million dollars.

In compliance with an act passed at-the recent session of the legis­ lature establishing a county tnana-- ger for Iredell. Charles S. Tomlin, an old Democratic war horse, has been eleeted to that position - at a salary of $3,500 a year. If The Davie Record received $1,665 from the county for printing during the past year, then we re­ ceived one miilion dollars. The Record has given value received for every dollar it has received from the county. '.Outside of |h e delinquent tax list that we publish annually, which is not paid for by the county, but by. the. men 'whose land is advertised for taxes, we re­ ceive between five and six hundred dollars per year which includes the stationery for the county officers, the sheriff’s tax rounds, ads, post­ ers, etc., the county exhibit which necessitates our issuing a 14 to 16 page, paper. The Record is not getting • rich off th^ county, but we could name one .or two men who were very poor when they arrived here but who have made a nice stake since getting.into politics. Mrs. J. P.

The'cotton gin of the Green Mill­ ing. Co., together with all-the machinery and a quantity of cotton was destroyed by fire about-9:30 o’clock Sunday morning. As soon as the alarm was given the local firemen, together w ith hundreds of people, rushed to the fire and put a brave fight to save the adjoining property.- The cotton gin was lo­ cated about midway between the Green mill and the Standard gas and oil tanks. ‘. The fire became so hot from the gin that the tanks were heated red-hot and excite­ ment became intense for fear the tinks would explode and destroy a good portion of the town. Co. No. 3, of the Winston-Salem fire de­ partment was rushed to Mocksvile, butrthe fire was under control be­ fore they arrived. The loss of the gin was around $8,000, with no in- s trance; The- Standard Oil Co., was damaged several hundred dol- lais. It is fortunate that the wind was not blowing or much property would have-been destroyed. New Bakey Open.

( S k IU !. W utern N»w»pap«r Union.) - * . -'y > '•/ .-O . ■ C© by Dodd. Mead & Company.) The French Revolution ««'X' HH people are In revolt?" * -asked the amazed King Louis XVX And Count Mlrabeau, wiser than his royal master, replied: “Sire, this la no revolt It is a revo­lution.” After the fall of the Bastlle the na­ tion had awaited further develop­ ments. Politieians wraiigleG, finances became more and more entangled, Queen'Marie Antoinette, continued to meddle with affairs of state which she did not understand, famine and mis­ ery stalked abroad, tend the news of the Bastfle’s destruction spread through France, everywhere stirring up the masses to courage and fury. At this juncture the king, advised by his wife, made one of his costly blun­ ders. Although his people were starv­ ing, and although more than ever be­ fore he needed the loyalty of his na­ tive soldiers, he gave a great and ex­ pensive banquet at Versailles to his foreign troops. ' This was the last straw. The Na­ tional Guard, led by Lafayette and preceded by a mighty mob of angry women, marched from Paris to Verr sallies on October 5, 1789, attacked the Versailles palace and dragged the king and his wife, and son back to Paris with them. Again a wrangle of politicians. Louis had a chance to save his throne if he would consent to become a constitutional monarch, but Marie Antoinette and the advisers with which she surrounded him would not hear of such a thing. So the fool­ ish king, by once more yielding to his wife’s demands, hastened ...on to the doom that awaited him and his. National Guard regiments were formed all over the country in- the name of the people, In the rural dis­ tricts bands of peasants settled old scores against' the masters who had oppressed them by .butchering whole families of aristocrats and burning and looting their castles. Noblemen, from royalty down, began fleeing from France by the hundreds, In fear for their lives. ‘ Meantime, In Paris a body known as the assembly drew up a “Declara­ tion of the Eights of Man,” based partly on our own Declaration of In­ dependence. Its keynote was “equal­ ity.” It proclaimed the freedom of all men, the sovereignty of the nation, religious tolerance, fair laws and the abolition of aristocracy and privilege. To this declaration Louis would not subscribe. Marie Antoinette regarded Its claims as Insane. Louis seSretly appealed to his fellow-sovereigns of Europe, and a foreign alliance was formed to invade France and reinstate, the king. The royal family sought to escape over the frontier on June 29, 1791,' but were caught and brought back. ' After this Louis consented to swear to the Constitution, and wa? reinstated. But he continued to plot .with foreign powers. The allies, marched against France, and famine again swept the land. This double grievance maddened the people, and they took- matters In their own hands. A mob sacked the Tutl- eries (the king’s residence In Paris), massacred the Swiss guard, who sought .to defend their master, and imprisoned the ' royal family. Louis was suspended from office, and In No­ vember, 1792, was brought-to trial. By a vote of 887'to 834 he was con­ demned to death. All titles had been abolished, so- under the name of “Citi- -zen Louis Capet” the unfortunate monarch was beheaded January 21, 1793. In the same year the Reign of Terror set In,' Aristocrats were guil­ lotined by scores and hundreds! ' Ma­ rie Antoinette was beheaded, and her son secretly put to death in prison. While the allies were preparing to Invade France, civil war, accompanied , by massacres and other atrocities, broke out and weakened the already' demoralized country. Another draw­ back to military success was that heretofore all officers of the^ French army had been noblemen. Tfiese-had fled or been beheaded, leaving the army. officerless. The republic’s offi­ cers" were men promoted froin the ranks solely by merit When they proved incompetent their soldiers re­ fused to obey them, and often even shot them. Realizing that France’s welfare and very existence in. this crisis depended on her soldiers, the republic . granted the ariny all sorts of privileges and made it an object of adoration. ' The newly reorganized French army, In the Revolution, turned on its al­ lied foes and In battle after battle whipped the best disciplined troops, of Europe, finally splitting the al­ liance against' France. Marat Dantou and Robespierre were the three prime movers In the Reign of Terror. Each of the trio used the other two for. his own ends, and each sought to be < dictator of the stricken country. Marat, merciless and bestial, was. murdered by Char­ lotte GoYday, whose lover hehad" ex­ ecuted. Danton, kindest and most hu­ man of the three,-was routed by Robes­ pierre- and beheaded.’. Robespierre— dandy, bloodless, Incorruptible, dead­ ly and yet visionary—became prac­ tically dictator of Frence. But In 1794 he In turn'was deposed and guillo­ tined. And now,; amid tie chaos, confusion of wild schemes and conflicting ex­ periments In self-government, arose a 'man.' Perhaps the greatest thf world has ' ever' seen. / Napoleon Bonaparte. IfBackHurts BeginonSalts Flush Youp KIdntys Oeeaslonally by Drinking Quarts, of Good Water. No man or woman can make a mis­ take; by flushing the kidneys occasion­ ally, says a well-known authority. Too much rich food creates acids •which clog the kidney pores so that they slngglshly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood. Then you get sick. Rheu­ matism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders often come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back- hurts, or if the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, Irregular of passage, or at­ tended by a sensation of scalding, be­ gin to drink soft water in quantities; also get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful In a glass of wa­ ter before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys may then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com­ bined with lithia, and has been used for years to help flush clogged kid­ neys and stimulate them to activity, also to help neutralize the acids in the system so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder disorders. , -* Jad Salts is. inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightfnl efferves­ cent llthia-water drink, -which every­ one can take now and then to help keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby often preventing serious kidney complications.

Caidwell1 of Honticel- lo, Hl., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel'that so many constipated, infants^ and.; children had to be kept constantly “stirred up-ahd half sick by taking, cathartic pills, tab- leta,vsalt3, calomel and nasty oils. While he knew that constipation was the cause of ,nearly all children’s little ills, he 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 if the' child is Chronically -consti­ pated. D r.' Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not only causes gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, it never gripes, sickens or upsets the most del- - Icate system. Besides, it is absolute­ ly harmless, and so pleasant that even a cross, feverish,, bilious,’ sick child gladly takes it.

Laurie rushed back to his rooms With pounding heart and on. the way opened aiTd read at a glance his first note from Doris. It was written in pencil, seemingly on a scrap of pa­ per tom from the pad he had seen on her'desk. “Long Island, I think. An old house, on the Sound, somewhere near Sea Cliff. Bemember your promise. No police” That was all there was to it. There was Bo address, no signature, no date, the writing, though hurried, was clear, beautiful, and foil of character. In •his rooms, he telephoned the garage for his car, and read and reread the little note. Then, still holding It In his hand, he thought it over. Two things were horribly dear. Shaw's ‘‘plan’’ had matured. He had taken Doris away. And—this was the staggering phase -of the episode—she seemed to have gone willingly. At least she had1 made no protest, though a mere word, even a look of appeal from her, would have enlisted Sam’s help, and no doubt stopped the whole proceeding. Why hadn’t she uttered ,that word? The answer to this, too, Beemed fairly clear. Doris had be­ come a. fatalist. She had ceased to hide or fight. She was letting things go “his way," as she had declared she would do. \. Down that dark avenue she had called “his way” Laurie dared not even glance.- His mind was too busy making its agile twists in and out of the tangle. Granting, then, that she had gone doggedly to meet the ul­ timate issue of the experience, what­ ever that mlghf-be, she had neverthe­ less appealed to him, Laurie, for help. Why? And why did she know approx­ imately where she was to be taken?’ Why? Why? Why? - Again and again the question had recurred to him, and ill's time it dug Itself In. Despite hie love for her (and he fully realized that this was what it was), despite his own experience of the night before, he hacl hardly been able to accept-the fact that she was, must be, in actual physical danger.. When, now, the breath of this realiza­ tion blew over him, it checked his heart-beats and chilled his very soul. In the next instant something in him, alert, watchful, and suspicious, ad­ dressed him like an inner voice. "Shaw will threaten,” this voice said. “He will fight, and he will even chlorform. But when it comes to a showdown, to the need of definite, final action of any kind, he simply won’t be there. He Is venomous, he’d like to bite, but he has no fangs, and he knows it” The vision of Shaw’s face, when he had choked him during the struggle of last night, again recurred to Lau­ rie. He knew now the meaning of the look In those projecting;, eyes. It was fear. Though he had carried off the rest of the interview with entire assurance, during that fight the crea­ ture had been terror-stricken. “Ha’ll have reason for fear the next time I get hold of him,” Laurie reflect­ ed, grimly. But that ,fear was of him, not of Doris. What might not Doris be undergoing, even now? He went to the little safe In the wall of his bedroom, and took from it all the ready money he found there. Oh, if only Eodney were at home! But Mr. Bangs had gone out, the hall man said. He also informed Mr. Devon that his car was at the door. The need of consulting Rodney in­ creased In urgency as the difficulties multiplied. Laurie telephoned to Bangs’ favorite restaurant, to Ep­ stein’s office, to Sonya’s hotel. At the restaurant he was suavely assured that Mr. Bangs wai not In the place. At the office the voice of an injured office boy Informed him that there wasn’t never nobody there till half­ past nine. Over the hoteL wire Sonya’s, colorful tones held enough surprise to remind Laurie that he could hardly hope that even Rodney's budding ro­ mance would drive him to the side of the lady so early In the morning. He hung up the receiver with a, groan of disgust, and busied himself packing a smalt bag and selecting a greatcoat for his journey. Also, he went to a drawer and took out the little pistol he had taken away from Doris In the tragic moment of their first meeting. Holding it In his hand, he hesitat­ ed. Heretofore, throughout his short but varied life, young Devon had' de­ pended upon his well-trained fists to protect him from the violence ,of oth­ ers. But when those others were the kind who went In for chloroform— end this time there was Dotis to fhtniy of. He dropped the revolver ?Qto his pocket, and shot into the ele­ vator and out on the ground floor with the expedition to which th.e op­ erator was sow becoming accustomed. His car-was a two-seated “racer,” of slender and beautiful lines. As he took his place at the wheel, the ma­ chine pulsated likie a living thing, panting with a passionate desire to be off. Laurie’s wiH young hea#felt, the - same longing, but his year In New York had taught him respect for Ita traffic laws and this was no time to take chances. Carefully, almost- sedatefy, he made his way to. Third, avenue, t&en up to the Queensboro bridge, and across that mighty run­ way to Long Island. Here his stock ot patience, slender at the best, was exhausted.' With ax deep breath lie B y E L IZ A B E T H JO R D A N <@ by T h . Century Cowj>»»y.) / WNU Servte* “fcst t«r out” to a singing speed of sixty SnIles an hour. A cloud had obscured the sun, quite appropriately, he subconsciously felt, and there were flakes of snow in the air. As he sped through the gray at­ mosphere, the familiar llttie towns he knew seemed to come . forward to meet him, like rapidly projected pic­ tures on a screen. Flushing, Bayside, Little Neck, Manhasset, Roslyn1 Glen- head, One by one they floated past He made tl^e run of twenty-two miles In something under thirty minutes, to the severe disapproval of several police­ men, who shouted urgent invitations to him to slow down. , One, of these was so persistent that Laurie prepared to obey; but just as the heavy hand of the law was about to fall. Its .rep­ resentative recognized young Devon, and waved him on with a forgiving grin. This was notthe first time Lau-' rle had “burned up” that stretch of roadway. At the Sea Cliff station he slowed up; then, on a sudden impulse, stopped his car at the platform with sharp precision and entered the tiny waiting-room. From the ticket win­ dow a pretty girl looked out on him with the expression of sudden.interest feminine eyes usually took on when this young man was directly in their line of vision. With uncovered curly head deferentially bent, he addressed He Made the Run of Twenty-Two Miles In Something Under Thirty Minutes. her. Had she happened to notice , a dark limousine go by an hour or so before, say around half-past eight or nine o’clock? The girl shook her head. She had not come on duty until nine, and even If such a car had passed she would hardly have observed it, owing to the frequency of the phe­ nomenon and her own exacting re­ sponsibilities. Laurie admitted that these respon­ sibilities would claim all the attention of any mind. But was there any one around who might have seen the car, any one, say, who made a specialty of lounging on the platform and^watch- ing the pulsations of the town’s life In this its throbbing center? No, the girl explained, there were no station loafers around now. The summer was the time for them. '■ Then perhaps she could tell, him if there were any nice old houses for rent near Sea Cliff, nice old houses, say, overlooking the Sound, and a lit­ tle out of the. town? Laurie’s newly acquired will power was proving its strength. With every frantic Impulse la him crying for action, for knowl­ edge, for relief from the Intolerable tension he was under, he presented to the girl the suave appearanoe of a youth at peace with himself and the hour. The abrupt transitions of the gen­ tleman’s interest seemed to surprise the lady. She looked ,at him with a suspicion which perished under the expression In his brilliant eyes. What he meant, Laurie soberly explained, was the kind of house that might ap* peal to a casual tourist who was pass­ ing through, and who had dropped into the station and there had suddenly realized the extreme beauty of Sea Cliff. The girl laughed. She was a nice girl, he decided, and he smiled back at her; for now she was becom­ ing, helpful, . Yes, there was the Varick place, a mile out and right OS the water’s edge. -And there was the Old Kiehl place, also on the Sound. These were close together and both for rent, she had heard. 'Also, there was a house In the opposite direction, and on the water’s edge. She did not know the name of that house, buf she had observed a "To Let” sign on it last Sunday, when she-was out driving. • Those, were all the houses she knew of. She gave him explicit Instructions for reaching all three, and the interview ended In an atmosphere of mutual regard and regret. Indeed, the lady even !eft her ticket office to follow the gentleman to the door and watch the departure of his chariot Laurie raced In turn to the Varlck place and the Kiehl place.' Shaw, he suspected, had probably rented some such place, just as he had rented the East side office. But a very cursory inspection of the two old house# con­ vinced him that they were tenantless. No smoke came from their chimneys, no sign of life surrounded them; also, he was sure, they were not sufficient­ ly remote from other houses to suit, the mysterious Shaw. The third house on his list was more promising in appearance, for It stood austerely remote from its neighbors. But on its "soggy lawn two soiled chil­ dren and a dog played in carefree abandon, and from the side of the house came the piercing whistle of an Underling cheerily engaged in sawing wood and 'shouting cautions to the children. Quite plainly, the closed-up, shuttered place was In charge of a caretaker, whose offspring were in temporary possession of its grounds. Laurie inspected other houses, dozens of them. He made his way into strange, new roads. Nowhere was there the slightest clue leading to the house he soughti It wa's one o’clock In the afternoon when, with an exclamation of actual anguish, he swung his car around for the return journey to the station. For the first time the hopelessness of his mission came home to him. There must be a few hundred houses on the Sound near Sea Cliff. How was he to find,the right one? Perhaps that girl had thought of some other places, or could direct him to the best local real estate agents. Perhaps he should have gone to them in the first place. He felt dazed, in­ capable of clear thought. As the car swerved his eye was caught by something bright lying farther up the road, in the direction from which he had jnst turned. For an Instant he disregarded it. Then, 6n second thought, he 6topped the machine, jumped out, and ran back. There, at the right, by the wayside, lay a tiny jagged strip, of silk that seemed to blush as he stared down at’lt Slowly he bent, picked it up, and, spreading it across his palm,, regard­ ed it with eyes that unexpectedly were wet It. was a two-inch bit of the Ho- inan scarf, hacked off, evidently, by the same hurried scissors that had severed the end in his pocket He realized now what that cutting .had meant With her hare-and-hounds’ experience in mind, Doris had cut off other strips, perhaps half a dozen or more, and had undoubtedly dropped/ them as’ a trail for him to pick up. Possibly he had already unseelngly passed several. But that did not mat­ ter. He was on the right track1 now. The house was on this road, but far­ ther. up. He leaped into the car again and. started back. He drove every-slowly, forcing the reluctant racer to, crawl along, and sweeping every inch of the roadside with a careful” scrutiny, but he had gone more than a mile before 'he found the second scent.

' > ■ ■ * — ■ ■ Lftilnessisnotpatience. heartfelt exclamation of thanksgiving, he turned into this bypath.. ^ It was narrow, shallow-rutted, and apparently little used. It flight stop anywhere, it might lead nowhere. It wound through a field, a meadow, a bit of deep wood, through which he saw the gleam of water. Then, quite suddenly, it again widened into a' real road,, merging into an avenue of trees that led In turn ’'to the entrance of a big dark-gray house, In a-somber set­ ting of cedars. Laurie stopped his car and thought^ futyy nodded to himself. This was the place. He felt that he would have recognized It even without that guid­ ing flame of ribbon. It was so ab­ solutely the kind of place Shaw’s melodramatic .instincts would lead him to choose. There was the look about it that cling3 to houses long untenanted, a look not- wholly due to its unkempt grounds and the heavy boards over its windows. It had been without life for a long, long time, but somewhere In it, he knew, life was stirring now. From a side chimney a thin line of smoke curled upward. On the second floor, shutters, newly unbolted, creaked rustlly In the January wind.- And, yes, there It was; outside of one, of the unshuttered windows, as If dropped there by a bird, hung a vivid bit of ribbon. Rather precipitately Lanrie backed his car to a point where he could turn it, and then raced back to the main road. HIr primitive Impulse had been to drive np to the entrance, pound the door until some one re­ sponded, and then fiercely demand the privilege of seeing Miss Mayo. But that, he knew, would never do. He must-get rid of the car, come back on foot, get into the house In some man­ ner, and from tfcdt point meet events as they occurred. Facing this prospect, he experienced an incredible combination of emotions —relief and panic, recklessness and caution, fear and elation. He had found her. For the time being, he frantically assured his trembling in­ ner self, she was safe. The rest was up to him, and he felt equal to it He was intensely stimulated; for now, at last, In his ears roared the rushing tides of life. CHAPTER XII The House in the Cedars Less than half a mile back, aloijg the main road, Laurie found.a coun­ try garage, in which he left his car. It was. in charge of a silent but intel­ ligent person,* a somewhat unkempt 'and haggard middle-aged man, who agreed to keep the machine out of sight, to have it ready nt any moment of the day or night, and to accept a handsome addition to his regular charge in return for his discretion. He was only mildly interested In his new patron, for he had classified him without effort One of them college boys, this young fella was, and up to some lark. Just what form that lark might take was not a problem which stirred Henry Burke's sluggish imagination. Less than twenty hours before Ws, seventh had been bom; and his wife was delicate and milk was seventeen cents a quart, and the garage business was not what it had been. To the vic­ tim of these obsessing reflections the appearance, of a handsome youth who dropped five-dollar bills around as if they w^re seed potatoes was In the nature of a miracle and an overwhelm­ ing relief. His mind centered on the five-dollar bills/ and his lively inter­ est In them assured Laurie of Burke’s presence in the garage at any hour when more bills might possibly be dropped. While he was llngeringly lighting a cigarette, Laurie asked a few ques­ tions. Who owned the big house back there In the-cedar grove, on the bluff overlooking the sound? Burke didn’t know. AU he knew, and freely told, was that It had been empty ever since he himself had' come to the neighborhood, ’most two years ago. Laurie, strolled out of the garage with a well-assumed air of indiffer­ ence to the perplexities of life, but his heart was racked by them. As he hesitated near the entrance, uncertain which way to turn, he saw that be­ hind the gaf age there was a tool shed, and following the side path which led t6\thls, he found In the rear of the shed a workman’s bench, evi­ dently little used In these cold Janu- jiry days. Tacitly, it invited the dis­ coverer to solitude and meditation, and Laurie gratefully dropped upon It glad of the opportunity to escape Burke’s eye and uninterruptedly think things out BUt the daisied ,path of calm reflection was not for him then.// Theoretically, of course,, his plan would be to wait until night and then, sheltered by the darkness, to ap­ proach the house, like a hero of melo­ drama, and In some way secure en­ trance. But even as this repdy-raade campaign presented itself,' a dozes objections to It reared up in.his mind. The first, of course, was the delay. It was not _yet -two o’clock in -the afternoon, and. darkness would not fall until five, even unwisely !assum­ ing that It would B« safe to approach the place as soon as darkness cama I n ’,three’ hours all sorts of thing? might happen; and the prospect of marking' time during that interval, while his. unbridled ^imagination ras away with him, was one Laurie could not face. - • exp BH casnaxnnav). .: CHILDREN GRY FOR “fiASTORIA"* ■■1' Especially Prqpared for Infant^ ^ and Childreii of AU Ages Mother!

Bach member of the class should j be assigned to the task a week ahead I of the preparation of an essay on the I topics involved In the quarterly les­ sons, as for example: What consti­ tutes a true Christian. Following Christ The. prayer life of a Chris­ tian. The Christian and his Bible. The home life of a Christian. Chris­ tian stewardship. The Christian and the missionary obligation. II. The Question Review Method. The teacher will prepare a list of questions dealing with the various phases of the quarter’s lessons. These will be written on slips of paper and the members of the class will draw them. As examples of questions note the following: What does following Christ involve? What is^the Chris­ tian’s responsibility as to his Bible? What is the Christian’s obligation as to stewardship? What are the duties of the members of the home? What is the Christian’s obligation as to .the evangelization of the world? What is the Christian’s hope? Is Christ com­ ing again? Will there be-a-resurrec­ tion of the body? . III. The Summary Method. This method can always be used to good advantage with the advanced classes. The outstanding fact or facts should be grasped and the principal teaching of the quarter’s lessons stated. Suggestions: Lesson for January 2. Jesus first calls men to be Bfla disciples. He then calls them to have fellowship in His service. Those who receive this two-fold call will walk as He walked. •' Lesson for January 9. , The one who- really follows Christ shall be hated and opposed. Haying fellowship with Christ, he will love his enemies, do good to those who hate him, bless them that; curse him, pray for those which despitefully use him. Lesson for January 16. ~~ N The Bible furnishes the Christian with full knowledge of God and man’s obligation to Him. The only way to be able to stand-firm and true in the coming- perilous times Is to be thor­ oughly grounded In the knowledge of the Scriptures. . , Lesson for January 23. Jesus,- though divine, resorted much to prayer. If he needed this fellow­ ship, how much more iffi His follow­ ers need it. Lesson for January 30. Followers of Jesus may expect temptations, but divine help Is avail­ able for every need. - Lesson, for February 6/ To every believer has been given certain talents such as gifts for serv­ ice, knowledge, time, money, to be used for the honor 0% His Lord. A time of reckoning is coming at which reward will be given for fidelity, and judgment meted out for infidelity. Lesson for February 13. The home is the oldest , and most Important institution in the world. The most effective way of making strong and pure the church, society and the nation is to make the home Christian. ; v Lesson for February 20. The subject of the kingdom Isiv un­ der solemn obligation to permeate so­ ciety and let his light shine so that the heavenly father may be glorified. Lesson for February 27. . ’ . Every believer has two natures—the flesh and the spirit The only way to overcome the flesh is to be filled with the Spirit Lesson for March 6. The Lord permitted persecution to fall upon the church to cause the dis­ ciples to be scattered in order for the widening of the testimony. , Lesson for March 13. Christ has imposed upon every difi- dple the obligation of witnessing for Him to all the nations of the world. Lesson for March 20. The. Christian’s hope is the personal return of Jesus Christ to take him to His heavenly home.

Washington.—The highly Infectious nature of foot and mouth disease virus, the extremely small size of its active agent, and its ability to escape Iden- l -tiflcation as to its true nature are the : outstanding results of the . year’s : study by the American commission I which went to Europe In- 1925 to ' study foot-and-mouth disease and is preparing its1 official report j The commission comprises Dr. Har- I ry W. Schoening of the United States I bureau of animal industry. Dr. Jacob I Traum of the University of California, I, and Dr. Peter K. Olitsky of the Rocke­ feller Institute for HediCal Research. By a special act of congress the com-, mission was empowered to conduct studies of foot-and-mouth disease abroad with the hope of obtaining in­ formation to be used in suppressing most effectively any outbreaks of the malady that may occur in the United States. The dangers of experimenting with the foot-and-mouth disease virus In the United States were considered too great to permit studies in this country. On the other hand, official European countries where the disease Is con-' stantly present welcomed the investi­ gations of the American commission and gave assistance: j Virus Extremely Active, i Though highly technical, the find­ ings of the commission show briefly that the virus of foot-and-mouth dis­ ease is extremely active and danger­ ous. It produced the disease experi­ mentally wh'en diluted as much as one !.part In ten million. The organism Is too small to be seen by the'most pow- ■ erful microscopes. As further proof of , its minuteness, the investigators found that centrifugal force for two hours at from 2,500 to 3,000 revolutions a minute failed to throw the organism out of solution., The resistance of foot-and-mouth disease virus to strong antiseptics also proved to be surprisingly great Whereas 60 per cent alcohol kills or­ dinary bacteria within a minute it failed to destroy the virus of foot-and- mouth disease in 26 hours. The virus also showed abnormal resistance to -other antiseptics, such as acetone, bi­ chloride of mercury and cresol. Reporting that foot-and-moutb dis­ ease is one of the most contagious diseases known, the commission fur­ ther notes that In hay or in garden soil It remained living for at least 25 days and the Infective agent may persist for lohger periods under favor­ able conditions for its protection. Bacteria Baffles Cultivation. The commission’s work included studies of immunity and the suscepti­ bility of many kinds of experimental animals. The causative agent of foot- and-mouth disease appears to be sep­ arate from any of the known kinds of bacteria of the ordinary species and has baffled artificial cultivation by any means now available. The com­ mission’s attempts to produce an active artificial immunity against foot-and- mouth disease were unsuccessful. Highly-• technical studies showed that the eleCtric charge of the virus 'Is positive and Uiat the electric charge 'influenced the passage of the virus through certain types of filter mate­ rials. This group of studies, though showing the £ Ctive agent of the virus to be ex- > mely small, indicated that it is not of a fluid character. In cattle studies, active virus w.'S found in the saliva before any lesions of Uie disease were observed. Other workers aiso have reported the ability of animals in the fever stage to infecc others before external signs are seen. The earthworm ’ could not be Impli­ cated as a carrier. A close scrutiny of methods used in Europe for controlling foot-and-mouth disease by rigid quarantine showed that even the severest form of quar­ antine is relatively ineffective com­ pared with the prompt slaughter of diseased and exposed animals, as practiced In the United, States. European officials with whom the American scientists discussed meth­ ods of combating fopt-and-mouth dis­ ease agreed that, when its extent is limited to a small percentage of the animals, the slaughter' and dean-up method is the only effective one, be­ sides being the most economical.

SENATORS LIKETHEIR BEAN SOUP Favorite Dish a t the Capitol Restaurant. / ■' - — Washington. — Senators have as many, if not more, differences in their Capitol restaurant as. they do In com­ mittees or in debate on the floor of their chamber. Home influences ap­ pear to follow them wherever they,go. New Englander, Westerner, Southern­ er, each spurns the dishes most rel­ ished by the others. The job of striking a balance among these conflicting appetites falls to the lot of Joseph I. Langer, manager of the six senate restaurants, who finds it harder to meet the requirements of the 96 members than to cater to the multitudes of visitors that pass -through the restaurants daily. Those multitudes are a widely fluc­ tuating quantity. One day he is called on to serve only a few hundred pa­ trons, while the next day. he may have to feed two or three thousand. He solves the problem thus presented by closely studying the news of the sen­ ate’s proceedings. If a popular sub­ ject is up for discussion, he knows that a large crowd will visit the gal­ leries and will require his ministra­ tions. It’s possible for him to take reason­ able chances. In trying ^satisfy the public patrons, but that is not the case with the senators. They are, so to speak, “the boss,” and durlng his years of experience he has made it his busi­ ness to know their preferences. Y One thing he has learned Is to keep on tap a bountiful supply of old-fash­ ioned bean soup. That dish appears to be nonpartisan, having the support of senators from all sections. One day, some years ago, he removed it from the menu. The senate of the United States immediately took infor­ mal but vigorous action, and bean soup was restored to the menu, per­ manently. At present 20 gallons are made and consumed every day.Steaih Shovel at Harvard Medces Seismograph Move Boston.—Harvard’s seismograph, the sensitive instrument which records on an average one earthquake a week, has been in a state of unrest for sev­ eral weeks. Instead of recording a fine line,,the needle has been tracing a heavy, jerky line. This daily and almost continuous “earthquake” was a great mystery for a time until Dr. Kirtley F. Hather discovered that it was caused by a steam shovel excavating the founda­ tions for the neyr Harvard chemistry building, near by. Every time it hits a rock or the root of a tree the seis­ mograph records a violent “earth­ quake”. Incidentally, the operators of the shovel would be surprised to find how close a check Doctor Mather can keep on their work. He can look at the day’s record sind tell, to a second, the time that the men started work in the morning, how long they took for their luncheon, and what time they quit at night.Five-Month-Old Baby“Swears” for Passport Hartford, Conn.—Baby John Brown Wishert Rodger, five months old, is a claimant for the title of the youngest American to make oath to the state­ ments ip a passport request and have a passport issued in his own name. At the' age of four months John Brown swore to the truth of certain facts In a language his father was able to translate, and affixed his mark. It was accepted In Washington and . a passport issued. | Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Rodger, the- baby’s parents, are from Scotland. Baby John will be an American citizen automatically when he is twenty-one, but when his father and mother pre­ pared to sail for a visit to their old home they found that he and his. three-year- old sister, Margaret, would have to have passports.

ODD LANGUAGE LINE IN NORTHERN ITALY Divides Itadians Frona TTiose Speaking German. WashIngton--T-The reported deporta­ tion of a German lawyer from Salorho in the German-speaking portion of northern Raly because it is alleged that be gave lessons in the German language, brings Italy’s'war-won ter­ ritory once more into public notice. “Salorno,”.says a bulletin from the Washington (D. C.) headquarters of the National Geographic so'ciety, “lies close to : the ’language line’ which crosses the -Adige valley about 15 miles north1 of Trento. This line divides the Italian-speaking Inhabitants of Tren- tino, the southern portion of Italy’s ’new territory, fromi the German-speak­ ing Tyrolese to the north. This form­ er Tyrolean region is now called ‘Alto Adige,’ or Upper Adige,, by the Ital­ ians. This line near Salorno is one of the unique languages lines of~Eu- rope, since it is apart from national, boundaries; yet there is such a plain demarkatlon that,evidences of the 'cul­ tural boundary’ can be.seen from the windows of a railway train. Shows 'Language Line. “As the traveler rides north from thoroughly Italian old Trento, scene of the historic council of 'Trent, he finds Italian architecture on every side. In the villages stucco walls, gently sloping red tile roofs, and the cam­ paniles of the parish churches pro­ claim this to be a land of Italians. ,But soon he notes a change. More and more dark shingle roofs appear and take on a steeper .pitch. A little farther along some of the roofs are broken by dormer windows, and then near Salorno he sees on a village church the first sharp Gothic spire, It serves almost as an exclamation point to mark the language line. “From this point northward the pop­ ulation is predominantly- Tyrolese, of German blood and German speech. Fifteen miles beyond Salomo the trav­ eler enters Bolzano, metropolis of Alto • Adige, and finds himself to all outward appearances in a German world. The population is predominantly German speaking, and German, In spite of laws to' discourage it, is the language of the streets, the shops, the hotels and restaurants. One sees only a sprin­ kling of Italian soldiers and officials on ordinary'days.

Divqrse Cultures Cause Problems . “The northern portion of the Adige valley, though a Roman province In the early centuries of the Christian era, has been governed by people of German ancestry since the days of the barbarian incursions which finally broke up the Roman empire. The val­ ley, however, lies south of the crest of the Alps,' and following 'the World war was made a part of Italy in order that that country might have a logical geographic boundary, capable of easy defense. With the country some 200,- OOO German speaking people wept un­ der Italian sovereignty, a fact which has created a stubborn governmental problem for Italy and many other problems for the population itself., Al­ though flie life of the1 people con­ tinues, to all appearances, much as when Alto Adige was a part of the Austrian 'province of Tyrol, many changes have been brought about by the Italian government. “It has been decided that In every way possible the use of the Italian lan­ guage shall he extended. Thechildren of Alto.Adige must now carry on their studies entirely in Italian and though the parents may teach them German In their homes, the teaching of that lan­ guage In private classes is prohibited. It was because of this regulation, ap­ parently, that the recently reported deportation took place.” Begins World Tour.

The legislature at the last minute passed an act leaving it to the dis­ cretion of the council of state as to' whether the State shall rejmburse former State Treasurer Worth, of $12,000 which was stolen by a dis­ honest clerk. Some of the mem­ bers fought this bitterly but a ma­ jority had to be consistent and pay back the rnonCy to this old man, that-hsas stolen from him. The mocratic legislature several years ago Daid back the amount that was stolen f.om Treasurer Lacy, by the same man, but he is a De inocrat and Worth is a Republican; they paid back Hoss Watts, money -belonging to the State that was lost in the smash of Cooper’s Wilming­ ton bank but Cooper and W atts are Democrats. If anybody has paid any money to the Stete some $80,- 000, lost in the smash of Norwood’s Salisbury bank we have never heard of it but Norwood, Lacy and Doughton are Democrats, and com­ ing home to Forsyth county, Clerk of the Court McKaughan and Re­ gister of Deeds Lentz have been re­ lieved Of money they had on de­ posit in the defunct Merchant Bank and Trust company, of Winston- Salem,-but all concerned are Demo­ crats and we suppose that these having charge of the funds of the taxpayers ot Winston Salem who tost the money in the same crash will also be forgiven. But they are all Democrats It is all right to reimburea Democrat who has State, county or city money stolen from him by thievery or bank failures bubalPwrong if the .'shoe happens to be on the other foot and the re­ cipient is a Republican.

The Daily Sentinel is worried be- cause the Legislature did not esta­ blish an eight months school term. Our opinion is that if the people cannot secure an education going to school half the time from six to 21 years, they are not worth .an education.

President Coolidge, Tuesday, an­ nounced that it was his intention to spend his summer vacation some­ where in the western States, the place not. having definitely been de­ cided upon. At the. White House where it was definitely disclosed that the President intended to go into the agricultural West for the. sqinmer, it was.said on2 his belialf that he IdiS not want to be too far.- from Washington, or go too far South. In the past he has expressed a preference for a retreat at some al titude, so he might find • relief from a slight bronchial trouble that bothers him during the summer mouths in Washington’s climate. No More Congressmen House leaders of the present Con­ gress have agreed that there will not be an increase of the 435 mem­ bers under any reapportionment scheme that may be broached this winter.

That splendid coun­ ty has 6een under the heel and do­ mination of the Statesville Demo­ cratic courthouse reng for a quar­ ter of a century and they are get­ ting so bold now that they take anything for granted and in lan­ guage of old Commodore Vander­ bilt, "the public be damned.” Iredell has a full complement of officers just like the other 99 coun­ ties of the State and has a board of commissioners numbering five men,' supposedly business men, and men, who have been the interest of the county at heart yet what has hap pened? A billw as put through the leg­ islature'establishing the office of business manager for the county and the past week Charley S. Tom­ lin, a Democratic warhorse, was named to the position at a salary of $3,500 a year and expenses while away from his office on business for the county. C. E. ,Hayythorne was elected bookkeeper and assistant manager at a salary of $2,500 a year and expenses while away from the office on business for the county. The, business manager was authorized to employ a steno­ grapher which will’ perliaps be a- nother $1,800' a year. In addition to these three offices amounting to #7,800 a year there will be other offices created in this particular de­ partment no doubt and with Tom­ lin’s and Hawthorne’s traveling ex­ penses added the pay roll will reach at least $10,000 a.'year, , And. tl e taxpayers pay the bills. Iredell is one. of the worst Dem­ ocratic boss ridden, hog-t'ed, ma­ chine-ruled counties in tne State and the people there are groaning under a heavy rate of taxation. The county is bonden to the gills and the sinking fund set up to re tire some of the debt has been spent for other purposes.' The common people are crying for relief and instead of relief they ,are hit with a lot of additional of­ fices for "deserving Democrats” which will make taxes higher. Hoiv long they will stand for the: rule of such ringsters at Hartness, W atts1-Tomlin1 Long and others remains to be seen. Some day, and rye do not believe it is very far distant, there will be a revolution in Iredell and the money changers will be swept from the temple — Union Republican. Good Advice.

Poor Advertising. Because of . an insuffibient bud­ get, Atlanta schools -will have to close for a month between Septem­ ber I, and January 1. . Atlanta is spending a million dol­ lars for advertising. It seems it would be better for Atlantato keep her millions at home, spend it on Her schools, and avojd the unfavor­ able advertising she is getting frotp the fact that she has failed to pro­ vide adevquate Education for her children.—News-Sentinel. . A preacher who will rob his fel- lowman, lie, cheat, steal 'or prac tice extortion, will land just as deep in hell as the fellow who makes his living by such methods and has no pretentions toward Christianity. , After 1 0 0 Years. • One Simon: Rothstein, who has lived to be a hundred years old, has a memory and code of life which affords him a measure of pleasure in some mistake. He is unique in his outlook upon life after the cen­ tury mark has been put behind him and he said a, few days ago to a newspaperman: " I’m a regular young devil like the rest of them. I smoke, drink and play cards. I’m not what you would call a young swain, but that is something I’m glad I’m not—it’s bad enough to be a foolish young lover once. “ Wine, a woman and song are responsible for my-' 100 years. It makes me angry when my friend^ feel they have to encourage me to live longer. My gosh! W hat more can a man ask than to be able • to look back on a full life, from the wisdom acquired with the years? My" memory'is very good; lean- make the same mistakes-today that I made.fifty years ago.” The old boy may live- to be an­ other hundred. He knows like as a happy existence, and- surely hap­ piness, is the means of longevity.— Hickory Record. Rouge and-Morals. The New York work is human­ ly sorry that there is not an anti cosmetic IMwj and The World has its reason for ,that grief which we pass along, stamped With our fierce endorsement:' It is. perhaps, an occasion for. rejoicing that a jury- of prominent citizens has declared by a vote of 7 to 2 that cosmetics are not subver- s Ve of femine . morals. Neverthe less, the news' makes us a little sad. We had hoped, somehow, that the jury would vote the other, way around and declare cosmetic should be prohibited' by law. Now that' we believe cosmetics are actually subversive of femine morals—far from it. ButTf cosmetic were pro­ hibited by law we might be able to see just what ..the modern women reallv looks like. This may betray undue curiosity on our part; if -it does, we ask pardon, onnbe ground that we have our little human weaknesses, like everybody else. "W hat do you .suppose a woman here is like? Is she pretty? Has she any color of her own? Has she eyebrows made of hair? Has her kiss, divorced from the lip stick that now goes with it, a funny taste to it? These all bumug questions, and, as we say, we have just en­ ough idle curosity to want to know the answer to'them.” —,Ex, Running For A Job.

Judge Moore passed a fine ’pliment on the the members of the grand jury while holding court here last week. He remarked to the editor that he had never seen a more intelligent jooking bunch of men together on a jury before—that they were substantial looking men with the ability 10 do their work, or words to that effect. Mr. I,. J C. Pickier, 6f Jerusalem, •was the foreman of this jury. A good lawyer friend writing to The Hickory Record, is lauding Al Sniith. of New York, for Pre­ sident and says the Baptist and Methodist preachers can’t afford to use their influence against him even if he is a wet man and a Catholic —that such a cause would mean mixing up churcn and state. May­ be so. But we have known- of preachers who made a strong fight against candidates for the State le­ gislature because they would take ' a drink of whisky when they could get it. . Was that mixing church and state? Well, it all depends on ‘whose ox is gored. Itis only aoout a month until, the municipal electian.

Air If Proper Bacteria Arie Present. (Prepared by the United states Department ot Agriculture.) Legumes, generally .speaking, are those cultivated crops—such as peas, beans, vetches, clovers and alfalfa— which can take nitrogen from the air. This fixation of atmospheric nitrogen, however, can take place only If the proper bacteria are present In the root nodules. When not naturally present these bacteria can be added artificial­ ly. Non-legumes, on the other hand— such as small grains, potatoes, and the like—cannot take nitrogen^ from the air even though Inoculated with bac­ teria. Can't Inoculate Non-legumes. Speculative investigators have tried repeatedly to inoculate the roots of non-legumes with the various kinds of bacteria, and positive results have been announced. Careful tests, how­ ever, says the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture, have not con­ firmed these claims, and it Is highly improbable that the original nature of the non-legume plants could b,e changed experimentally to such a de­ gree that they would be able to take nitrogen from the air. To give every farmer an opportunity to gain a clearer understanding of the most Important facts relating to the inoculation of legumes and non­ legumes with nitrogen fixing and other bacteria, Farmers’ Bulletin 1496-F has been prepared. If the bulletin does not answer all the questions that arise further information can be se­ cured from the agricultural experi­ ment station of the state In which the farmer lives or by writing to the bu­ reau of plant industry, United States Department of Agriculture, Washing­ ton. D. 0. Nodule Bacteria Necessary. To get the full benefit from their growth, legumes must either find the nodule bacteria in the soil or must be supplied with them. The plants usual­ ly find bacteria of the right kind in the soil if the same kind of legume has been successfully grown on the same soil previously. On the other hand, if, for the first time, legumes are grown which have never been planted in that locality and whose bacteria are different from those occurring naturally In the soil, inoculation is urgently needed. Soy beans, hairy vetch, and alfalfa, for instance, have frequently failed In first trials merely because they were planted without being Inoculated. But even where the same legumes have been grown before, inoculation may sometimes be advisable. The bulletin gives complete direc­ tions for several methods of inoculat­ ing legumes. Copies may be obtained, as long as the supply lasts, by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C.Inoculate Sweet Clover Before Sowing in Spring The time to Inoculate sweet clover seed is just before sowing it In the spring. Obviously, the dirt for this purpose will have to be taken from around a plant that grew last year, since there will be no new green plants at that time. The easiest, quickest and perhaps best practice in inoculating is to take' a few handfuls of dirt from around sweet clover or alfalfa roots and make a thin mud of it. Then pour a little of it on half a bushel or so of the seed in a tub. Then work It over with the hands, and In a short time every seed will have a smear of the mud on it Care must be taken that direct sunlight doeB not touch the inoculated seed. Some peo­ ple add glue to the water In making the mud.Early Variety of OatsBest for Average Year The early varieties of oats or the medium early are better for the aver­ age year in the corn belt. They get filled before the worst of the sum­ mer heat arrives vsjhile the late vari­ eties may be caught In the hot wave to the extent that their kernels be­ come chaffy. It Is a case of their ripening too rapidly. Official compar­ isons in the state of Nebraska over a period of years have shown that early oats are better for that state. Some of the farmers In western Iowa claim that they have proved In a practical way that early oats are best for them also. I R p m R c t : Dipping is the most effective meth­ od of ridding cattle of lice.* * * There is no better time than now to plan for having cows tested for tu­ berculosis.• * * Poorly prepared seed beds have been responsible for more failures to obtain stands of alfalfa than any other fac­ tor.* * * Land is the most valuable human possession.

(Prepared by the United Statea Department of Agriculture.) In conducting the ‘‘better sires— better stock" campaign,, a nation-wide crusade promoting the use of pure­ bred sires, the Foreau of animal In­ dustry of the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture receives many ac­ counts of Interesting experiences from live-stock'owners who are gradually learning the merits of well-bred ani­ mals. On each enrollment blank, which must be signed by anyone wishing to become a member, a space is provided In which a live-stock owner may men­ tion any Inferior sires recently dis­ posed of, giving reason for so doing. An enrollment blank received from a Montana farmer contained' a brief ac­ count of his experience with a grade boar. “I disposed of a high-grade boar about. two months ago,” he wrote. “Secured a younger pure bred for the same money. I have noticed that grades (Duroc)—even after several generations of pure crossings—fade in color as. they grow older and do not fleshen so . readily nor look so well.” Though the fading In color possibly requires further explanation than the reasons given, officials in the bureau of animal industry remarked, when not­ ing the experience of the farmer, that In view of the increasing number of farmers using only pure-bred sires, grade boars are fading away in a broader sense. In a few decades, or even a few years, one may see many communities insisting on pare-bred sires'In all breeding operations.Getting Rid of CanadaThistles by Smothering Smothering out a patch of Canada thistles by the use of straw piled over them to the depth of three or four feet Is the most successful meth­ od we have found in fighting this stub­ born weed, says a writer in the Ohio Farmer. Previous to the use of the straw method, we had tried various means to kill the thistles. But In spite of such methods as cutting them off above the ground, at the surface of the ground, and even grubbing out part of the underground stems, the patch persisted In spreading. A year ago last August we were confronted with the problem of doing something with an old straw-pile. After some consideration we decided to haul it out onto this patch of thistles. Here it lay all winter and until plowing time In the spring when it was scattered around and plowed under. Only a few thistles, weak specimens of their kind, survived and attempted to grow after this course of treatment and a minute’s work with the hoe completely put the patch out of business. We haven’t been troubled with this patch of Canada thistles since.Too Little Pruning Done on Bearing Apple Trees Because of the ,low prices received for fruit, many growers will be in­ clined to do IIttJe or no pruning. This is unfortunate, say! the college of agriculture of Butgers university, for while It is good policy to “cut corners” in times of depression, It is not a sav­ ing to slight pruning. The college continues In part: Many growers have done too .little pruning on bearing apple trees such as Wealthy, Stayman, Borne, and others. This has resulted In too many small green apples that are not worth picking and has helped only to glut the market, thus bringing down the prices received for good fruit After giving the tree a good thin­ ning, the long IeaderB should be head­ ed back on varieties that tend to fruit on spurs. If the tree is beyond 20 or 25 feet high, It should be cut back. “More small cuts and fewer large ones” would be a good slogan for many growers to follow. If detailed pruning of small limbs Is practiced this winter, there will be less need for hand thinning of fruit-next summer when labor is scarce and costly. With­ out this detailed pruning or thinning of fruit, apples of-good size and color are hard to obtain.Clean Wheat Seed WillGreatly Increase Yield Field tests have demonstrated that the use of clean seed grain may mean an increased yield of from one to six bushels per acre over the yield ob­ tained from uncleaned seed, says A. A. Hanson of Purdue. In one test it was estimated that the time spent In running seed wheat twice through a fanning mill paid at the rate of $35 per hour. Weed seeds, dirt and chaff in wheat represent a huge economic waste since they mean reduced yields, in­ creased cost of harvesting and thresh­ ing and needless expense for storage space and freight charges, since It costs just as; much to ship weed seeds as pure grain. According to the rec­ ords of the federal- seed inspection service, three Middle Western states produce about 5,000,000 bushels of for- ' eign material In their annual wheat crop. The surest way to reduce the heavy loss caused by weeds in wheat fields is to carefully clean the seed wheat with a farm fanning mill, and . right now Is a good time to do the job. A* KITCHEN; I CABINET I ____________ „ J (© , 1927. W esteraN ew spaper U nion.) Emerson said of Lincoln: “His heart was sb great as the world, but there was no room in it to hold the memory of a wrong.” TEMPTING FOODS The commonest foods when well cooked and well seasoned, then well served are always tempt­ ing. Braised Cabbage.—Af­ ter cutting a good-sized head of cabbage In half, let it stand an hour or more in cold water to cover, then put on to cook In boiling salted wa­ ter until nearly done. Drain and remove the hard center after it has cooked twenty minutes.’ Put into a saucepan one sliced carrot, one. turnip sliced, one stalk of celery, a few sprigs of parsley, one sliced onion and a bunch of any -herbs. Lay the cabbage on top, pour over two cup­ fuls of good stock and boil until all the vegetables are tender. Hot Tamales.—Boil a fowl until ten­ der, strip the meat from the bones aDd chop fine. Chop half a pound of seeded raisins and one-half cupful of stoned olives with one red pepper, all finely chopped. Mix all together with a paste made of two cupfuls of corn meal, scalded with boiling water and cook for fifteen minutes. Add six half cooked' eggs finely chopped and mold into rolls. Place in the smooth Inner husks of green corn and tie with strips of the husk. Boil for an hour in salted water. Parsnips.—There are so few ways that parsnips are served that an occa­ sional change is always welcome. Try cooking them unscraped, then remove the skin and m&sh. Serve them as fritters by dropping a spoonful of the parsnips, well seasoned, into a fritter batter and frying in deep fat. . Another most appetizing way of serving parsnips is to peel and slice them into matchlike strips two inches long, put to cook with no water, only that which clings to the vegetable when washed. Add a spoonful each of lard and butter and stir occasionally to insure an even browning. Add salt and pepper if liked; serve as a vege­ table or as a garnish for the platter of meat Buttered Parsnips.—Clean parsnips and slice into quarters, and the quar. ters into strips. Put to cook in a tightly covered dish with a tablespoon­ ful of butter, stirring occasionally and cooking slowly for two hours. Ham-Tomato Toast--Fry a table­ spoonful of minced pepper and one- half tablespoonful of flour, a teaspoon- ful of minced onion In two tablespoon­ fuls of butter; add two tablespoonfuls of flour, a teaspoonful of sugar, one- half teaspoonful of salt and a few dashes of pepper, one cupful of to­ mato puree and a half cupful of minced ham. Serve hot on well-but­ tered toastRamekin Eggs.—Butter small rame­ kins and drop an egg into each, sea­ son well and cover with cream; bake In a moderate oven until the egg Is set. Serve garnished with parsley. Easy Marmalades. At this season of the year when citrus fruits are plentiful and usually the cheapest, is the time to pre­ pare the delicious marmalades. Most Americans like’ some sweet for b re a k fa st, even though they begin^ the meal with a fresh fruit, orange, or grape­ fruit at this season. Maple sirup is well liked, but scarce and expensive, and many people dislike honey. which often lacks flavor and Is a cloying' sweet So marmalades, so inexpen­ sive and so easy to make, add a charm to the breakfast table and a grace-to the tea table. Served with hot rolls, baking powder biscuit scones or strips of buttered toast, the marmalade is a pleasing addition to any menu. • Orange Marmalade.—Take six or­ anges, two lemons, twelve cupfuls of water, seven cupfuls of sugar. Peel the oranges, removing the peeling in quarters. Slice the orange. Scrape the white lining from the rinds and dis­ card. Cut the rind into thin strips. Slice the lemons very thin without peeling, add the cold water and let stand 24 hours.- Bring to the boiling point and boil three hours.

Iiijjei JJras hIs Interest In the “act,” left Ii1 at when the impersonator IliLed ewOge and started off, Burbe a Jtroa8 desire to follow Mm and see the finish of the performance, t a desire that recalled for a fleeting In­ stant the determined personality of the young gentleman hidden under the tramp disguise. At the last moment before leaving, Laurie took from his pocket the tiny revolver he had brought with him, and holding It In his 'palm, studied it In silence. Should he take it or shouldn’t he? He dropped It among tho dis­ carded heap of clothes, and picked up in Its st£ad a small screw-drlwr, which he put into Ms ragged pocket That particular tool looked as If It might be useful. .—• Lounging np the country road, with his cold, bare, dirty hands In the pock­ ets of the borrowed reefer, he looked about with assurance. He believed that in this unexpected guise, he could meet even Shaw and get away with It; but be meant to be very careful and take no unnecessary chances. He cut across half a dozen fields, climbed half a dozen fences, was fiercely barked at by a dozen dogs, more or less, and finally reaching the grounds of the house In the cedars, approached it from''the rear in exactly the half-sneaking, half-cocky manner In which the average tramp would have drawn near a shuttered house from one of whose chimneys smoke was rising. It was a manner that nicely blended the hope of a hand­ out with the fear of a rebuff. Once’ he fancied he saw something moving among the trees. He ducked back and remained quiet for some time. Then, reassured by the continued silence, he emerged, sauntered to the back en­ trance, and after a brief preliminary study of the shuttered windows, as­ sailed the door with a pair of grimy knuckles. He had expected a long delay, pos­ sibly no response at all. But the door opened as promptly as If some one had been standing there avraiting his signal, and on lts threshold a for- bidding-looking woman, haglike as to hair and features but cleanly dressed, stood regarding him with strong dis­ approval. In the kitchen range back of her a coal fire was burning. A tea­ kettle bubbled domestically on its top, and cheek by jowl with this a big- bellied coffee-pot exhaled a delicious aroma. The entire tableau was so different from' anything Laurie had expected that for an instant he stared at the woman, speechless and almost open- mouthed. Then the smell of the cof­ fee gave him his cue. He suddenly remembered that he had eaten noth­ ing that day, and the fact gave a thrill of sincerity to the professional whine in which he made his request .“Say, lady,” he begged urgently, “I’m down an’ out. Giinme a cup o’ cawfee, will yuh?” Her Impulse, he\ saw clearly, had been to close the door In his face. Already her hand was automatically responding to It. But he whipped off his dirty cap and, shivering on the door­ step, looked at her with Laurie’s eyes, whose beauty no amount of disguise could wholly conceal. There was real appeal In them now. Much, indeed almost everything, depended on what this creature would do in the next minute. She hesitated. “I ain’t had a mouthful since yes­ terday,” creaked the visitor, plead­ ingly and truthful!^. “Well, ’ wait there a minute. I'll bring you a cup- of coffee.” , She turned from the door and started to close It evidently expect­ ing him to remain outside, but he promptly followed her in, and her face, hardening into quick anger, softened a little as she saw Mm cowering over the Mg hot stove and warming his dirty hands. In silence she filled a a cup with coffee, cut a thick slice from a loaf of bread, buttered It, and set the collation on the kitchen table. “Hurry up and eat that,” she mut­ tered, “and then clear out If any one saw you here, Td get into trou­ ble.”Laurie grunted acquiescence and wolfed the food. He had not sat down, and now, as he ate, his black eyes swept the room while he planned Ms next move. Drying on a stout cord back of the stove were several dlsh- towels. Tliey gave him Ms first sug­ gestion. His second came when he ob­ served that his hostess, evidently re­ assured by his haste, had turned her back to him, and, bending a little, was examining the oven. Noiselessly setting down the cup and the bread, he crept behind her, and, seizing her In one powerful arm, covered her mouth with his free hand. He could not wholly stifle the smothered shriek she gave. For the next moment he had his hands fuU. Despite her wrinkles and her gray hair, she was a strong wom­ an, and she fought with a violence and a false strength due to overwhelm­ ing fury and terror. .It was so diffi­ cult to control her without hurting her that all Ms strength was taxed. But' at last he brought her slowly- down Into. a chair under the row of dlsh- toweis, and seizing two of these useful articles, as well as the cord that held them, securely bound and gagged her. As he did so he dropped his role and looked soberly Into her furious eyes. “Look here,” he told her. ‘Tm not going to hurt you; be sure of that But I’ve got something to say, and I want you to stop struggling and lis­ ten to it” , Under his quiet tones some of the frenzy died out of the eyes staring up at him. ‘Tm here to get Mlss Mayo,” he went on, “She’s in the house, isn’t she? If she is, nod.” There was a long moment of hesitation. At last the head nodded. "Is there any one else In the house?" The head shook negatively. “Is there to one here but you and Miss Mayo?” Laurie could hardly take In this good luck, but again the head shook negatively. "Where 13 she? Upstairs?” The head nodded. He stepped back from the bound figare. ‘.4.11 right,” he said, cheerfully. "Now Tm going to unbind you and let you take me up to her. As a pre­ caution, I shall leave the bandage on your mouth and hands. But, being a sensible woman, of course you realize that you have absolutely nothing to fear, unless you give us trouble. M you try to do that I shall have to leek you into a closet for a few hours.” As he spoke he was unfastening the cord. “Lead on,” he invited, buoyantly. There was an Instant when he thought the struggle with her would begin all over. He saw her draw herself together as if to spring. But she was evidently exhausted by her His Hostess, Having Turned Her Back to Him, He Crept Behind Her...' previous contest She was also sub­ dued. She rose heavily, and, taking her time to It, slowly led the way out of the kitchen and along a hall to the front of the house. "No tricks, remember,’' warned Laurie, keeping close behind her. "Play fair, and I’ll give yon a year's salary when I take Miss Mayo out of this.” She turned now and looked at him, and there was venom in the glance-. Violently and negatively, she shook her head. “Don’t you want the money?” hie in­ terrupted, deeply interested In this phenomenon. “I’m glad, to have met you,” he politely added. “You’re 'an unexpected and a brand-new type to me.” She was walking forward again, with no sign now that she heard his voice. Reaching a wide colonial stair­ case that led to the second floor, she started the ascent, but so slowly that the young man behind her uttered an­ other warning. “No tricks, remember,” he repeated, cheerfully. “I’m afraid you’re plan­ ning to start something. I believe you’re capable of falling backward, and bowling me over like a ten-pin. But don’t you do it A dark, musty closet Is no place for a kind-hearted, sensible woman to spend twenty-four hours In.” She ignored that, too, but now she moved more quickly, and her com­ panion, close at her heels, found him­ self in an upper hall, approaching a door at the front of the house. Be­ fore tMs door Ms guide now planted herself, with much of the effect of a cornerstone settling Into place. Keeping a careful eye on her, he stretched out a long arm and tapped at the panel. There was no answer. He tapped again. Still no answer. He glanced at the enforcedly silent wom­ an beside Mm, and something In her eyes, a gleam of triumph or sardonic amusement, or both, was tinder to Ms hot spirit “Have you led me to the wrong door?” he asked. He spoke very quietly, but the tone impressed the woman. The gleam faded from, her' eyes.. Hastily she shook her head. “If .you haye-^-” He nodded at her thoughtfully/ Then he raised his voice. “Doris,” he called. “Doris!” He heard a movement inside the room, an odd little cry, half exclama- atlon, half sob, and hurried steps ap­ proaching. The next minute her voice came to Mm, In breathless words, with a tremor running through them. “Is It you?” she gasped. “Oh, is H you?” “Tes, open the door.” “I can’t. It’s locked.” He stared at the unyielding wood before him. “You mean they’ve locked you in?” “Yes, of course.” It ^pould be, of course, Laurie re­ flected. That was Shaw’s melodra­ matic method. “We’ll change.all that In a minute.” He stepped back from the door. “What are you going to do?” The voice mside was anxious,' “Break it down, if necessary. Break­ ing down doors to get to you is my specialty. You haven’t forgotten that I hope.” He turned to the women beside him. “Have you the key to this?” She shook her head. “If you have, you may as well hand It over,” he suggested. “I shall certainly break down the door if you don’t; and it’s a perfectly good door, with a nice polish on it.” He saw her hesitate. Then ,sud­ denly, she nodded. "You have It, after all. He spoke with the natural relief of an indoleni young man spared an arduous job. Again she nodded. "Where is it?” She could make no movement with her bound hands, but with an eye-flash she indicated the side of her gown: “In your pocket? Good. I’ll get it.” He got it as he spoke. Holding It In his hand, he again addressed his reluctant companion. “When I unlock the door, you will go In first, and walk over to the nearest corner and stand there with your back to the room. Also, here’s my last warning: I should be very sorry to do anything that would hurt oi; inconvenience you. If you behave yourself I will soon take oft that gag. If you don’t, I shalL certainly Ioik you up. In either case, you can't ac­ complish anything. So take your- choice.” He unlocked the door, and the de­ liberate figur^ preceded him Into the room. In the next instant he saist- nothing in the world but the eyes of Doris, fixed on his. Then he knew that he was holding her hands, and listening to her astonished gasp as she took in his appearance. “My disguise,” he; explained. “I couldn’t ride up as publicly as young Lochinvar, though I wanted to., So I got this outfit” He turned around for her inspection, deliberately giving her and Mmself time to pull up under the strain of the meeting. " At the first glimpse of her all his assurance had returned. He was excited, triumphant But as he again met her eyes, some­ thing In their expression subdued him. “It took longer to get here than I expected, but of course you knew I was on the way,” he saiS. Her response - was unexpected. Dropping into a low chalt, she burled her face In her hands and burst Into a passion of tears. Aghast, he stared at her, while from the corner the hag stared at them both. Laurie dropped on his knees beside Doris and seized her hands, Ms heart shaking under a new fear. "They’ve been frightening you,” he muttered, and was surprised by the intensity of his terror and anger as he spoke.' “Don’t cry. They’ll pay for It” (TO B E CO NTINU ED .) Religious ,Beliefs of Indians Queer Mixture At Ysleta, In southwest Texas, are the survivors of a tribe of Indians, perhaps the oldest tribe in the South­ west, whose religion is said to be a mixture of pagan rites and the formal- lsmof the Koman church. Missionaries have been unable to eliminate the paganism and some of it has been left to continue as , the only survival of really- primitive worsMp on the Kio Grande, says the Baltimore Sub. A. curious story, also of southwest Texas, was published a short time ago about the Seminole negroes who live near Brackettville and who have a strange religion. For the Seminoles1 Christmas, Instead of Easter, is the B ritain’s Sm allest H ouse Mrs. Jane Jones, who has died at Conway, was owner and for years In charge of the smallest house In Great Britain, standing on Conway quay. The house has a frontage of. 6 feet and is 10 feet from back to front end of Lent. The Seminoles have re­ ligious feasts at which pork-is the only forbidden meat and their sacramental drinkis tea. The religion.is a strange blend of teachings from .many sources with traces that go back to Africa and the earliest', red men on this con- tinent. From P ersonal O bservation One of the questions put t<ga class of rural adults was : “In the .sen tence, .‘The bird flew over the ,house, Is ‘flew’ a regular or an irregular verb?” This proved a stjeker for the class, but finally one man ven­ tured an answer. Said he, . “If the bird that flew over the house was a wild goose, it went In a straight, reg­ ular line, so the verb Is regular; but If it was a woodpecker, then it went In a crooked, zigzag line, and so th* verb Is Irregular.” - . AU but the grammar-bound ex aminer' Was ’ satisfied with this r» tional explanation.

N apoleon B onaparte (Part I) ALEAN1 shy, undersized youth of twenty-five hung about Paris In 1794, looking for employment.. He was a fairly good writer and had at one time planned a literary career; but In this field he had failed and had, there­ fore, returned to military life. He had seyved with distinction In the army of the new French republic, but the convention could find ho further use for his services. He was miserably poor, chafing at Inaction and without prospects. Within ten years he was destined to be emperor of France and the most powerful and famous man on earth. The lonely, unemployed youth was Napoleon Bonaparte, one of the thir­ teen children of an Italian lawyer liv­ ing In Corsica. At the age of ten young Bonaparte had been sent to a military school, where his poverty, shyness and ignorance of French (a language he never learned to speak without accetit) made him unpopular and laughed at by bis schoolmates. Many of these same schoolmates were one day to be the fawning, cringing servants of the-lad they now despised. When he was sixteen Bonaparte was commissioned a-lieutenant of artillery and at twenty-one. was a captain. The army was divided between allegiance to King Louis XVI and the new revo­ lutionary party. Bonaparte sided with the latter. When he noted the coward­ ice with which Louis yielded to the mob, he£muttered: “It is all up with him I A few charges of grape would scatter that pack of curs.” He stored the lesson La his memory and later put It to use. In September, 1793, as lieutenant- colonel of artillery, it was his strategic skill that won Toulon from England. For this he was promoted to the rank of brigadier-general—and allowed to wander idly and hungrily about Paris looking for work I He is even said, at this time, to have planned to offer his services to the sultan of Turkey. But at the ebb of his fortune a sud­ den turn came. In October, 1795, the people of Paris rose against the con­ vention. Thirty thousand strong they marched ten the Tuilefles. Barras, president of the convention, appointed Bonaparte to command the 5,000 troops at that body’s disposal. Bona­ parte turned his artillery into the ad­ vancing mob of guardsmen, townsfolk and riffraff and sent them flying. In reward he was placed In command of the Army of the Interior. His career had begun. He. married, March 9, 1796, Joseph­ ine Beauharnais,' a rather elderly Creole widow from Martinique. She did not love Bonaparte, but married him because Barras told her the youth had a future. She was notoriously unfaithful to this new husband of hers, and repaid his ardent devotion with mere tolerance. Almost directly after the marriage the young bridegroom tvas sent to take charge of France's Itelian army, which had been drag­ ging on an indecisive warfare against Austria and 'Sardinia. He had a rag­ ged, unpaid host of 40,000. ' The allied Austrians and Sardinians were far stronger; yet inside of five days Bona- p.arte had whipped them together and separately, and. within a Jlbonth had won all northern Italy for France. He ended the campaign by forcing Austria to cede territory and indemnity. Breaking every old tradition and es­ tablished rule of warfare, exercising wondrous ingenuity, swiftness and audacity, the Corsican had completely dazed and outwitted his slower- brained foes. And these same unex­ pected and genius-bred tactics were to serve him against many another foe. He returned In Mumph to Paris, when he was sent, early In 1798, with 36,000 men to invade Egypt. This ex­ pedition, so far as concerned the Mamelukes and Turkish armies he en­ countered, was a brilliant success for French arms. But Bonaparte’s fleet was destoyed by the English, and' the garrison of Acre, made up partly of Englishmen, successfully resisted his attack. From first to last, England was Bonaparte’s stumbling block. In his time he thrashed and bullied and browbeat every other nation, as the school bully might the littlest boy. But whenever he clashed with England he soon or Iafe met discomfiture. While Bonaparte was In Cairo on his return from Syria news came of French defeats In Italy and of . a political crisis in Paris. Also—and to him, at that time, perhaps, most Im­ portant of all—came private advices of Josephine’s open flirtation with other men. The Mple tidings sufficed to send Bonaparte hurrying back home, leaving his army to shift for Itself. He reached Paris at the crucial mo­ ment of the governmental crisis, and, by taking advantage of every turn of fortune, as foreseen by his rare diplomacy, he succeeded In 'winning the position of first consul. Then It was that the man’s true character showed forth. His was a double ambition—first to make France strong at home and terrible abroad, and, second—and above all—to win for himself the highest obtainable power and glory. He set to work re­ storing order and' prosperity to his unsettled country, conciliating rival factions and teaming a new and ln;.: spired code of laws..-Then he put into aetkm his plan to conquer the world.

PRIMARY TOPIC—P eter Follows Je­sus. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Great Decision. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­ IC—M aking the Great Decision.YOUNG'PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­IC—Answering Christ's.Call./ I; Jesus Preaching In 'Galilee (w. 14. 15). The reason for Christ changing from Judea to Galilee was the growing op­ position to Him. He accepted the fate of John, the Baptist, as foreshad­ owing His own death. The rejection of the forerunner meant the rejection of Him whose advent he heralded. 1. What He preached (v. 14). The gospel of the kingdom of God which meant the good news of the near approach of the kingdom of God when the rule of God as predicted by the prophets .would be realized. 2. How He preached It (v. 15). (1) “The time Is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand.” * This meant that the time had now come for the appearance of the Mes­ siah and the establishment of His kingdom. (2) “Repent.” This meant that the people should turn around, change their minds and attitude toward Christ and accept Him as their King. The message of re­ pentance is one which needs to be sounded out today. (3) “Believe the gospel.” Then, as now, men needed to believe the gos­ pel of Christ. II. Jesus Called Peter and Andrew to Become Fishers of Men. ' Jesus called this pair of brothers for service In His kingdom. It is usually best to perform the Lord's service In pairs. This has a threefold value. It makes testimony effective; It provides fel­ lowship on the part of workers and protection of the witnesses. It is to be noted that these men had previously been called to be disciples of Christ (John 1:86-42). They, are now called to service. Observe: 1. From what they were called (v. 16). They were called from positions of definite service. They were fishers. God always chooses His servants from the ranks of the employed. 2. To what they were called (v. 17). To be “fishers of men.” They no doubt had been successful fishers. The qualities which made them good fisher­ men, namely, patience, bravery to face the storm and darkness of the night, and perseverance, which led them to toil all night though no fish yere caught, would make them good fishers of men. 8. Their obedience (v.$t8). “Straightway they forsook their nets and followed Him.” To obey meant sacrifice, painful sep­ aration, the giving up of all business Interests and leaving father behind. Regardless of the cost, they yielded prompt obedience. III. Jesus Entering Simon Peter’s Houses (w. 29-31) Soon after the call of Peter and An­ drew, Jesus called James and John, after which they entered the syna­ gogue at Capernaum, where He cast out an evil spirit This miracle caused His fame to be spread abroad. 1. A loved one ill (v. 30). When Jesus entered this home Ha found Peter’s mother-in-law with a burning fever. We know that among the closest followers of Jesus there are suffering ones and anxious and burdened hearts. To all-such Jesus comes with loving sympathy and pow­ er to help. . 2. “They tell Him of her” (v. 81). This was the proper thing to do. We should bring to the attention of Jesus those of our families who have need of bodily or spiritual healing, 3. He healed her (v. SI). “He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up.” This act showed the•' nearness, sympathetic tenderness and power of,Jesus. At His touch the fever departed and strength was im­ parted to her body. 4. “She ministered .unto them” (v. 81). This act shows: (1) That the cure was instanta­ neous and complete, when Jesus heals there Is no halfway' business. (2) Gratitude on , the part of the one healed. She thus expressed her ap­ preciation of. what Jesus had done. AU those who have experienced the healing power of Jesus will express their gratitude In ioving setvice to the Lord and His disciples. THE UTILE STARTER Qod’s Indulgence God is not over-indulgent. He is too loving for that. Because He loves us, and plans for. our growth, He cannot let our faults go without correction. His justice stands side by side with His mercy, and cannot be evaded or left out of account—Southern Meth­ odist Finding Strength Where shall we find strength for practical separation to God, except In God Himself—Echoes. (©, 1921, by D. J. Walsh.) ROY SNYDER was a bus driver; In love with Ella Charters, the pretty.little information clerk, who sat In the glass box office at the service station; Roy was a dear, with merry blue eyes and a mouth that seldom drooped at the comers—that is, it had seldom drooped until along about June, 1924. Then it threatened to develop a per­ petual slant when Ella refused to go to the altar on Roy’s salary of §100 per. “That monstrous fabrication that two can live as cheaply as one is nothing but . . . honey boy,” Ella avowed when Roy tried to persuade her to chuck her job and start house­ keeping for two In a three-room flat. “With $75 a month all my own, I have to do my laundry at night and eat In cafeterias to make it do.” ‘You wouldn’t if you didn’t want so many dresses, silk stockings and fancy slippers,” stubbornly protested Roy; “But I waift ’em—such as they are. If you knew anything you’d under­ stand Fm pretty clever to make any sort of a showing on what’s left after paying for eats and the room rent.” “Oh, I know you're clever. That’s the whole dam mb! You manage to look so dura nifty you attract the Johnnies even over the telephone. You’d think people In this town who want to use the bus line couldn’t read by the way they flock around your window and call up for information. What’s the company ran a daily ad In the newspapers for, I’d like to know? But you got to marry me, EUa,.you Just got to.” “All right, I’m willing enough, once you get a little starter. That three- room fiat, In my case, must be an apartment, and they are still $45 a month for rear ones.” “I know they are on the boulevard or any of the swell avenues. But if you loved me you’d be content to make a home for me some place where rent wasn’t so high. A hall bedroom is the largest size castle I’ve known so far, and Fll tell the world any place that spells home with you In it will look like a palace to me I” Then Roy began to study ways and means of putting by more of his sal­ ary to fatten the starter Ella demand­ ed. He discovered that the dairy lunchrooms and hot-dog counters were cheaper than cafeterias, and the sav­ ings went to swell the bank account. “What's the big idea working eve­ nings?” Ella complained when Roy be­ gan taking the 6 p. m. hours for men Who wanted those hours off. “You, my dear! I’ve only five hun­ dred of that thousand you insist on having to begin the housekeeping game on, and I’m trying to get the other five hundred pronto.” “Don’t you think I ever .want to go places?” .,“Sure!” .; “You don’t act like it” . And EUa argued, scolded 'and pout­ ed about being lonesome, though she was secretly pleased at her lover’s determination. Ella decided to work evenings, too, and she asked the manager to let her write up the reports after regular Working hours. Roy didn’t like that The service station, with a parking garage attached, was no place for a girl after dark. “No one will bother me,” EUa de­ clared when Roy objected. “It adds $10 to my pay, and with you working so frequently I’d rather be at the sta­ tion than sitting out evenings alone.” Roy couldn’t persuade her to aban­ don the overtime work, so he had to content himself by asking Donegan, the policeman on that beat, to keep an eye on the station the nights EUa was on duty. He made up his mind to punch anybody’s face who tried to Start anything with Ella. A week later the fir3t cyclonic storm' that had visited the city In ten years began to gather during the rash hour for theater goers. It was terrific while It lasted, but, like all cyclonic storms, was quickly over, leaving wet, debris-strewn streets. Roy took a chance on leaving his rotate for a block, to run by the service station to see if EUa was safe. Her smlUng countenance In the glass box office re­ assured him, and he speeded up as Donegan appeared and shook his club at him. A block farther up the street he was hailed by two men, one carry­ ing a black bag. Passengers for the depot, thought Ray, and paid no more attention to them. He had enough to do to watch for the wreckage in the street, and soon he came to a block where a house had been unroofed. None of the family had been at home. Roy’s passengers left the bus with a murmured, “It’s an ill wind that doesn’t blow somebody good. This is going to be an easy one.” On his next Mp uptown, great ex­ citement prevailed In that block and the crowd was fast becoming a throng In and around the damaged house. Roy’s passengers all wanted to Ieam what the excitement was, and Roy himself left the bus and Joined the crowd. There had been a robbery; $5,000, hidden In, the attic, had been stolen. Roy heard the owner tell a policeman he would give $1,000 to recover the bonds. He rushed back to his bus cursing himself for a fool. Why hadn’t he Stuck around on his first trip uptown and watched those men with the black bag? They learned, as robbers have a way of learning such things, that the man had taken .those bonds home that afternoon, and one of them had prob­ ably bden watching the hirase to see if the family left it. At that moment Roy's attention was attracted, and he nearly reeled from his seat Right in front of the depot he was again haUed by two men, one carrying a black bag. Roy’s heart began to pound with paralyzing force, then it dragged with fear of their recognizing him. He puUed his cap far down over his eyes and bent his' face over the steering gear as the fare was dropped into the box. When the door was closed on them as passengers, he sent the bus forward with more speed than usual and avoided seeing any other persons who haUed him. In the neighborhood of his service station he left his route In the hope of seeing Donegan, but that Individual had gone Into the office for a drink of water. Roy had to begin circling the block the second time, t then he glimpsed the man peering out of the window and pressing the buzzer. Roy jammed his brakes and shot the bus across the street with terrific speed. Then he made a dangerous skidding circle, winding and twisting his wheel as if trying to get control of it “Let us out, you d—n fool!” bel­ lowed the man with the bag, springing from his seat, foUowed by his compan­ ion. Roy paid no attention to any­ thing except the bus unttt he saw Don­ egan coming toward him on the run, then he plunged straight across the street with a mighty grinding of brakes and lunged against the curb. “What’s the matter, kid, did she run away with you?” “No, arrest those men,” he com­ manded, throwing open the door of the bus. Three hands started for hip jockets, but Donegan’s was the quickest. “What’s the charge, kid?” he asked, taking the step with leveled gun cov­ ering the two passengers. “Get this bag and let’s have a look into it,” replied Roy. “Pass over the bag,” ordered Don­ egan. The man carrying it handed it to Roy, and wbqp he snapped It open the first thing that met his eyes ,was a package of negotiable bonds. “Take the handcuffs from my pocket and clamp them on those birds,” Don­ egan ordered. s Roy obeyed without a word, but his face beamed as he turned and saw EUa standing close to the step of the bus. “I was afraid to breathe when I saw you skidding all over the place. I looked every second for you to be killed.” “That little skid gets me that thou­ sand you want for a starter, girl o’ mine,” almost sang Roy to the -blush­ ing confusion of Ella. Many Prominent Men Sons of Merchants At a political meeting In England, a nobleman and his supporters ven­ tured to speak sUghtingly of several of his distinguished opponents because either they or their ancestors had been “concerned in trade.” This aspersion excited a young journalist to action, and the next morning there appeared' In his paper a Ust of names so illusMous and for­ midable as to . end aU argument on the subject This was his list: Euripides was the son of a fruit­ erer; Vergil, the son of a brickmaker; Boccaccio, the son of a merchant; Bunyan, the son of a traveling tink­ er ; Luther, the son of a miner; Co­ lumbus, the son of- a weaver and orig­ inally a weaver himself; Shakespeare, the son of a butcher and wool stapler; Ben Jonson, the Son of- a mason; Cowley of a grocer, Milton of a scriv- enjr, Fletcher of a chandler, Pope of a linen draper, Collins of a hatter, Thomas Moore. of a grocer; Jeremy Taylor of a barber, Defoe of a butch­ er and himself a hosujr, Rabelais of an apothecary, Moliere of a tapestry maker, and Rousseau of a watch­ maker. To this list we may add a few more such as Keats, whose father was em­ ployed In a Uvery stable, and John Paul Jones, whose father was a gar­ dener. Nor can we omit Samuel Johnson, Thomas Hood, or Anatole France, all sons of bookseUers.—Mar­ ket for Exchange. Indian B oy L oves D ogs The Indian boy shares his cookies with the dog Just Uke the puppy-loy- Ing paleface youth does. Six-year-old Joe Belt of the Glacier National park reservation has four dogs following him to school every day. Cookies are a scarce article in Joe’s little tin lunch box, so he saves the nickels and dimes he gets from Glacier park sum! mer tourists. In this way he has a fund with which he buys “store cook­ ies in packages” at the agency trad­ ing post. Once a week he gets a pack­ age as dessert for himself and the dogs share the goodies with him on ■Fridays. Queen of Perftunes Attar of roses is probably the best imitation of the rose In the way of perfume. It is said that the finest product is prepared at . GhazIpoor In Hindustan.

There Ore about- 200 roses to the pound and an acre of land WUl produce only from ten to-twelve ounces of attar. The result is, It is very ex­ pensive.

To Motoring Public The STATESVILLE OIL COMPANY, in keeping with its long established policy not to offer to the public anything in Petroleum Pro­ ducts that will not stand the highest test, and which is recognized everywhere for their uni­ form HIGH QUALITY—ANNOUNCES to the motoring public a NEW GASOLINE for this territory. This Gasoline will be marked by the INDEPENDENT OIL JOBBERS of North Carolina, under the trade name of NC PEP. In a short time this gasoline can be se­ cured from the mountains to the sea shore under this trade mark. This NEW GASOLINfe is a superior Motor Fuel of UNIFORM QUALITY, which has all the best features of price: POWERy PeP, Minimum Carbon content, and high anti-knock qualities. NC Pep GASOLINE is refined by The Pure Oil Company, one of the largest inde­ pendent oil producers and refineries in the world. This Company has a capital of over two hundred million dollars, and own its own oil fields, this insures a uniform crude, and a constant and ample source of supply. They own their pipe lines, refineries, tank steamers, ocean shipping terminals and railroad tank cars, wliich place them in the front rank as producersy-refiners and markets of petroleum products. The Taxas Company, for some time has been unable to supply the demand for Gosi- ■ line in this territory, making it necessarv for us to secure a new source of supply. When we were confronted with this fact, we went over the entire field in order to secure the highest quality products obtainable, and in j securing this New Gasolitie, we know that we have a product that we qan stand behind and recommend to all, as a uniform quality pro­ duct regardless of what price you pay. This New NC PeF Gasoline is nbw on sale at all of our Iillingx stations and by dealers everywhere that ar£ supplied from our Stat­ esville Station, also our Mocksville and Tay­ lorsville Stations.
