The Sacred Cigarette Volvella Sacra! Which don’t mean a new disease nor a -pateuted apoliance for your Tin Lizzie, but simply is Roman Latin for the sa­ cred cigarette. For down in Durham, this ador­ able state, some years agone the Godly Methodist Were offered a staggering sum of scads if they would move their SectarianiCollege, Trinity, over to the town where more cigarettes used to be made than anywhere else on the globe— and the brethien voted with only a fetv weakly piping protests, to 'ac cept Mr. Duke’s offer, and that was that. “ Old Trinity” as the the college first known, was famed for it’s great teachers, it’s- godly ministers and the, high spiritual progress made by the pupils who came out of its doors. But some­ body suggested that a new day had dawned—and over went “Over Trinity” to the cigarette-king’s berg. We made bold then to chirp that we were rather charmed with one feature of the progroni—for we learned (that the faculty enacted a law making students caught smok­ ing cigaretts go out oh the then uncleared campus, aud grub up old stumps. As the endower, Duke, made bis millions manufacturing cigarettes, an his millions made-the college, then by making the users of his cigarettes dig stumps on the campus the facility -was “ turning honest dollars—and dimes” in,both ways, you see. But now more of the same has seeihmgly.occurred.. Duke, -;dying left more millions to the College, provided , of course, that the Metho­ dists change its name to Duke Uni­ versity—which, also of course, they promptly did. Our Baptist friends, voicing their dissent thru the mighty'and militant Dr. Batemanj remarked,that “ if the Methodists made such a swap, they might as well hang crepe on1 the door of Methodist education in North Ca­ rolina.” Well, it do begin to seem to eppear that wav. Here comes the venerable. Dr. Meeks of Mem­ phis. raising a row over Duke’s Dean of the College of the Bible, Dr.'Soper, because he hiked out to Memphis and intimated man was almost as good as a nigger, as long as he behaved. And now. Dr. Meeks sighs some more and sees red, because, notwithstanding what the Metnodist- Discipline and the Board of Bishops have decided on the matter, the' University’s Head of the New Testament department appears to have chaperoned other­ wise supported and attended a hil­ arious midnight University studeot- body dauce. ‘ The able editor of the N. C. Christian Advocate, Methodism’s alficial paper, rips the gizzard out of the prancing crowd for such car­ rying on, aBd intimates that while Jesus held manymidnight prayer- meetings, he never chaperoned any midnight dances or any. other sort. According to the Book, ‘so this con­ scientious parsonscribe avers, the only dance chaperone.. given pro­ minence in the Bible was Herodias —and that caused the prophet John to, lose, his head. And our owd idea is that before the matter has thoroughly sifted thru some of Duke s scintillating “social equality-ites” aud inter­ racial groupist evolutionists’ will mebbe also jose their heads. I And we will gives a guess that it won’t be many moons betore Methodism loses Duke for keeps. But then, pshaw; what else is to be expected of a.University found, ed' on cigarettes rather than the crystal Christ?—Yellow Jacket. "" TT ' ' ’ . j . Spring cleaning and painting go hand in band.

Record which purports to publish what is said aud done ,in Congiess but seems to be used- for every sort of propaganda the Con gression-al ninnies wish to favor. Just recently one George Gordon Battle, a small-bore lawyer with'an explosive name in New York, rush ed into a Baltimore Pope-toadying sheet and gave a list of Southern Roman Catholic “ patriots” whom he, Gordon, desired to praise. One of the United State Senators frpm the Pope-state of Maryland asked “ unanimous consent” to include Battle’s slush in The Congressiph al Record, and now it is being dis­ tributed to boost Al Smith’s cam­ paign’s among the the Southern Protestants. Battle says in his article that he is a “Southerner and a Masonic’ and of course every Southerner knows how a native he is—as he has spent all his life in Gothafn. And the kind of true Mason Battle seems to be crops out in his idiotic slaver out of the Pope’s aliCnt henchmen. ButfPf course Battle being a life long pie-chasing Tammy politician thinks by slobbering over his na­ tivity and fraternal obligations in behalf of the Pope’s outgt, he can feather his nest for a soft berth, when Al Smith, who, he thinks, will be elected President, begins passing out . the easy political snaps. While everybody 'knows that .George, ,Gordon - Battle 'dottz mount to a diminutive D., inVihte type what we do object to is being taxed to' pay for publishing The Congressional Record to' carry to the cornersjof the country the soapy slush of such political ponderers. The Masons in Congress ought to put a stdp .to such all-fired non­ sense.—Yellow Jacket. Wby He Was There. A maq visiting a lunatic asylum while walking in the giounds he met a patient to whom he said. Well how did you get here? The man replied: “ Well, sir you see, I married a widow with a grown up daughter and then my father married my wife-daughter and that made my wife the mother-in-law of her fatlier-iu law, and my father became my step-son. Then my step mother, the daughter Of my wife, had a.son, and that boy, of course was my brother, because he was my father’s- sou, but he was also the son of my wife’s daughter, and therefore her grandson, and that made me grand father of my step brother. Then my wife had a son so my step-mother, the step­ mother, the step sister of niy son, is also his grand mother, because he is'her step son’sjchild, my father is the brother-in-law of my child, because his step sister is his wife; I am thebrotherof my own son, who is also the son of my step grand-mother; I am my mother’s brother-in-law, hny wife is her own child’s aunt, my son is my father’s nephew, and I am my own grand father. . “ That why I am here, sir.” President Coolidge will spent his vacation in the West, in response to many- invitations. He should drive in a big automobile from Kansas City to Seattle down -to Sau Diego, fishing here and there. He would see millions of Ameri­ cans that like him. ^Louisianians have arrived at a masterful compromise on the evo­ lution question. • From now on, they are / descended from Adam while in the public schools,; but from the ape when they go to col­ lege:—New.

Subtle coloring is a third element I itliich CDters into the creation of the Ipatrician coat for spring. Bisque, [light tones of beige, fawn shades and I tome soft lovely grays, also some few I pastel tones express the trend. Crowning glory of all is the supple- | as-fabrie fur which collars the coats —the kind that caresses the throat I and protects, yet is never cumbersome, j These furs so harmonize with the tone I of the fabrics they trim each coat re- I solves itself into an entrancing color I symphony, which is pleasing, indeed. Ombre fur is the supreme choice of I the moment There is much enthusi- Iasm for twin beaver just .now. This I to is as flexible as cloth and it blends I It with the fabric of the coat either to I a beige or gray, alternating with I stripes of white. Note the shawl-col- I Iat tn the coat In the picture, which idea is handsomely demonstrated In the first hat which shows white satin scroll-like motifs on a cunning black felt shape. Black velvet, in graceful leaves and figures, Is applied all over a white bangkok for the next hat which bears the message of wider brims. It is said that black on white will be featured throughout millinery for summer. One charming effect promised is thin black Iace stretched over a foundation of white straw. Paris sends over many hats with "a touch” of black velvet. Note the charming model at the top to the right in the picture, for the crown of which velvet is the chosen medium. Black embroidery on white crepe for the wide headbnnds plays a decora­ tive part in ,keeping with the black- and-whlte vogue.

JULIA BOTTOMLEY. • ((& 1927. W estern Newspaper Union.) - - (© by Dodd. B ead A Company.) N apoleon B onaparte (P artll) CvOR the son of a Cotslcan lawyer 1 to plan a world empire, nowadays, would be sheer insanity. But In Na­ poleon Bonaparte’s time and country almost anything was posslbfh to the man who knew how to use his chances. Tavern waiters became field marshals; servants rose to dukes. For the first time In France’s history It was the man, not his ancestry, that counted. Bonaparte, being the greatest genius In France, rose highest In the mighty upheaval that followed the overthrow of old customs. Having, as first con­ sul, set matters to rights at home, he drew sword against all Europe. Here­ tofore long, time-wasting campaigns and acres of red tape had marked every war. Bonaparte changed all this. Whirlwind campaigns and de­ fiance of all outworn military tradi­ tions formed the keynote of his war­ fare. On May 13, 1800, he hurried an army across the Alps, captured Piedmont by a brilliant victory Over the Austrians at Marengo, June 14, and dictated peace terms' to Austria. Other countries, scared by the exam­ ple, followed suit, and, for the first time In many years, universal peace seemed established all over the civ­ ilized world. Meantime, in France, Bonaparte was forwarding his personal ambitions to such good effect that, when the project of crowning him emperor of the French was broached, it was car­ ried by a popular vote of 3,000,000 to 3,000. He sent for Pope Pius VlI to crown him at Paris amid Imposing ceremonies, December 2, 1804, but at the last moment ho snatched the im­ perial diadem from the pope’s hands and crowned himself. He then placed the crown on the head of Josephine, bis wife. The following year he be­ came king of Italy as well. . And now came a change of charac­ ter so remarkable as to support the old rumor that Bonaparte the general and Napoleon the empervor were two different men. From being shy, lean and silent, Napoleon grew assertive, fat, talkative. The rigid, temperate simplicity of early days gave way to court etiquette, pomp and imperial splendor. His court was brilliant and extravagant. England, resenting certain of France’s annexations, declared war, and ' Napoleon prepared to invade Great * Britain. But Russia, Austria and Sweden formed an alliance with England and the plan was changed. Napoleon, with ISO1OOO men, crossed Bavaria, took Vienna and met the combined Austrian and Russian armies at Austerlitz. Each of the three armies was commanded by' an em­ peror. After a long and bloody battle Napoleon defeated the allies with fear­ ful loss. He' then thrashed Prussia at Jena and Auerstaidt and captured Ber­ lin. Russia’s army was marching to Prussia’s aid, but Napoleon met and overwhelmed it at Friedland, June 14, 1807, and forced the czar to sue for peace. He next conquered Spain and Portugal, and extended his conquests throughout the continent of Europe. He made his brother king of .Spain and his brother-in-law king of Naples, and lavished similar royal honors-on others of his family. Spain, dissatisfied that a low-born Corsican should rule it, revolted. Eng­ land and Portugal allied themselves with the Spaniards and the “War of "the Peninsula” began; - the English army being commanded by Sir Arthjir Wellesley, afterward duke of Welling­ ton. Austria took this time to rise against Napoleon. The emperor hur­ ried an army across the frontier and inflicted a«crushing defeat on the Aus­ trian host at Wagram, July 8, 1809, and dictated humiliating terms of peace ,to the beaten country. Nearly all the world was bow at the Corsican genius’ feet. Tet he was far from satisfied. He saw that he. held his sovereignty through sheer strength; Austria’s ac­ tion had taught him that the Instant his back was turned the beaten na­ tions would spring at him like wild animals at their trainer. He knew that, even while kings and countries cringed to him, they secretly despised him as an upstart. Only so long as he could overawe foes by active, ag­ gressive power could he hope to retain his mastery. v . / He had no son "to Inherit his' title. Moreover, he now saw his boyish mis­ take In having married a stupid wom­ an of the people. He had long since outgrown his early adoration for the fickle Josephine. He calmly proceed­ ed to divorce her, and on March 11. 1810, he married the Archduchess Ma­ rie Louise; daughter of the emperor of Austria. The proud Austrian mon- archjiad no choice but to submit, and to' sell his daughter for ithe sake of his country’s welfare. ' Marie Louise cared nothing for her imperial bride­ groom, and in his later days of adver- ■ sity promptly deserted him. They had one son, who, while In his cradje, was proclaimed, king of Rome. This son died of consumption at twenty-ona I The years 1810 and 1811 marked the flood-tlde of Napolegn’s prosperity. Hls dominions extended' from Naples to Denmark. He was proclaimed ruler of Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Holland; and most if the German states. Rus­ sia, Austria and other nations were at his feet England alone held /oul against him. Never- before or Elnce hat such tremendous authority been vestet. In one man. IS CONSTIPATED! LOOK AT TONGUE Hurry, Mother!

And—I—I think it was a horrible thing to do. I— I can’t forgive myself.” Laurie groped vaguely amidst sensa­ tions of relief and the mental con­ fusion with which, someway, she al­ ways filled him. ' “You’re—all right, aren’t you? And you expected me, didn’t you?" “Yes, but— Qh1 don’t . make me talk! Let me cry.” .. She was crying as she spoke, rack- lngly, and every sob tore his heart Again, as so often before, he felt dazed and helpless before the puzzle she presented. Yet, as always, there seemed nothing to do but obey her, since she, and sot he, invariably held the key to the strange situations in Which she placed him. Her tears made him feel desperate, ..yet he dared not continue to bold her hands, and he did not know what to say. Rising, but keeping his position beside her, he Waited for her to grow calmer, and as he waited he subconsciously took In the room. It was a big front chamber, fur­ nished as a sitting-room. Its broad windows, with their cushioned win- dow-seats, faced east 'Besides the Window, it had two exits, the door by which he had entered, and another door, half open, apparently leading Into a bedroom. Its comfortable easy-chairs were covered with gay chintz, Its. curtains were of the same material, Its reading-table held books and newspapers, and in its big open fireplace fat logs were blazing. Shaw "did” his prisoners well. Laurie re­ membered the cigarettes, matches and blankets so thoughtfully provided for himself. Like Shaw’s own room, the chamber breathed simple comfort It was impossible to take In the thought of anything sinister In con­ nection with it until one observed the gagged woman in the corner, and re­ membered the locked door. “Well, princess,” he said at last, StiJU trying to speak lightly, “this isn’t much of a donjon tower, is it?” Her sobs, hysterical and due to over­ wrought nerves, ha:d given place to occasional sharp catches of the breath, like those uttered by a little child whose “crying spell” is almost over. She did not speak, but put out her hand to him, and he took tt and held it closely, conscious of a deep thrill as the small palm touched his., “I want to talk to you,” he said gently, “but I’d feel a lot more com­ fortable if our chaperon were a little inore remote. Can we put her Into this inner'room?” Doris nodded, and he waved the woman across the threshold of the Bedroom. She would be safe there. He had observed that the windows of the inner room were still barred and shuttered. Seemingly, In all the big house, this upstairs sitting-room alone had opened its heart to the sun. “Are you really alone In the house?” he asked. “Yes; I think so; Fm almost sure if it” . “Then there’s no ,mad rush about leaving?” “No—I—I think not.” He observed her hesitation but ig­ nored it. He drew two big chairs close to the open fire, and, leading Doris to ■I a Laurie Entered the Boom, Pushing the Secretary Before. Him. one, seated her In it and took the other himself, turning It to face hers. As he . did so, she recoiled. “You look so dreadful!” she ex­ plained with a shudder; “I suppose I do. But forget that and tell me something. When did Shaw leave?” “Within half an hour of the time he brought me here.” “When is he coming back?” “Tonight, I think.” ■ “Arid he's left you here alone, with no one around but'this woman?” Lau­ rie asked;- Incredulously. Here was another* situation' hard to understand. "Hlssecretaryissomewherearound, a wretched jackal that does what he’s told.” “Oh!” This was news. “Where is ter ■ “Out In the garage. He has a room £ w e . I heard him say h e had bo i n By ELIZABETH JORDAN (@ by The Century Company.) WNU Service sleep last .night, and that he expect­ ed to get some today.” Laurie rose. , 1Til take a look around and see where he is,” he suggested. “We can’t have him catching on to my little visit and telephoning to Shaw, you khiow." As he spoke he was walking toward the door that led Into the hall, &id now he confidently put out ’his hand and turned the knob. His expression changed. He gave the knob a violent twist, then, setting his shoulder against the Jamb,' tried to wrench the door open. ' It did not yield. Dorts watching him wide-eyed, was the first to speak. “Locked?” she whispered. "Locked,” corroborated Laurie. He nodded thoughtfully. Several things, small In themselves, which had puz­ zled him, were clearing up. Among others, the housekeeper's persistent efforts to gain time were now ex­ plained. Shaw had not been so care­ less as he had seemed. The meek blond secretary with the pursuing eyes and the chloroforming Jiabit was certainly in the house. CHAPTER XIII Laurie Checks a Revelation Laurie ,shook his head. “That was rather stupid of him,” he remarked, mildly. “It’s almost as easy to force open av locked door from the inside as from the outside.” , “I know.” Doris was again breath­ less. “But In the meantime- he’s tele­ phoning to Shaw.” “I don’t think so.” Laurie, his hanfls In his pockets, was making a characteristic turn around the room. “What has he to gain by telephoning? ■Shaw’s coming back anyway In a few hours; and in the meantime the sec­ retary has got me safely pocketed, or thinks he has. I have an Idea he'll stand pat You see, he doesn’t know about my talent for opening locked doors.” He strolled back to the door as he spoke and examined the lock. Then, appreciatively, he drew from his pocket the screw-drlver he had thoughtfully brought from the garage. “I fancied this might be useful. It will take me Just about four minutes to open that door,” he announced. “So get on your things and be ready to start in a hurry.” • “Do you imagine'that we can get away now, in broad daylight?” She seemed dazed by the suggestion. “Why not? You want to get out of here, don’t you?” “Yes—I—of course I do!” “You don’t seem very sure of it.” Laurie was smiling down at her with his hands still In his pockets, but there was an expression keen, cold, almost hot not quite suspicious. “Yes, but—you don’t understand. Shaw has other men on watch, two of them.” “Where/” ' “In the grounds. One In the front and the other in the back.” The newcomer mentally digested this unwelcome information. “If we wait till it’s dark,” said the girl, “we’ll have a better chance.” “Unless Shaw gets back In the meantime.” He was still watching her with that new look in his eyes. Then, briskly, he returned to his in­ terest in the doorlock. “In any case,” he casually remarked, “we don’t want to be jailed here.” She said no more, but sat watch­ ing him as he worked, deftly and si­ lently. In little more than the time he had predicted he opened the door and held it wide. ■ “Any time you would like to pass out,” h e. invited, then checked him­ self and vanished in . the dimness of the hall. The girl left behind heard the sounds of running feet, of a sharp scuffle, of a few words spoken in a high, excited voice. Then Laurie re­ entered. the room, pushing the secre­ tary before him. At present the youth looked anything but meek. His blond hair was on end, his tie was under one ear,, his'pale eyes were bright with anger, and - he moved spasmod­ ically, propelled by jerks from behind. “I don’t like this young man,” said. Laurie, conversationally. “I never have. Sb I’m going to put him where for a few hours he can’t annoy us. Is there a good roomy closet on this floor? If there is, kindly lead us to it” “Say, hold on I” cried the blond youth, In outraged tones. - ‘Tm sick of this.” “Shut up.” Laurie shook him gen­ tly. “And cheer up. You’re going to have a change. Lead on, please.” .. Thus urged, and - further Impelled, the secretary obediently led the way to a closet at the far end of the up­ per hall. It was'fairly commodious, , and full of- garments hanging on pegs' and smeiling oppressively of camphor. It afforded an electric-light fixture, and Lahrle, switching on the light, emphasized this advantage to the re­ luctant new occupant who unwisely put up a brief and losing fight on its threshold. . “You may read If you like,” Laurie affably, suggested, when this had been suppressed. 'Tll bring you some magazines. You may even smoke. Mr. Shaw and I always treat our prisoners with the utmost courtesy.' You don’t smoke? Excellent! Safer for the closet, and a fine stand for a worthy, young man to take. Now, I’ll get the magazines for you.” Be did so, and the blond secretary accepted them with a black scowl. , ‘Tm afraid,” observed Laurie re­ gretfully, “he has an ungrateful na­ ture.” He locked the door on the infuriat­ ed youth, pocketed the key, and faced Doris, who had followed the brief procession. The little encounter had restored his poise. * “What,next?” he asked, placidly. Her reply was In the nature of a shock. "I’d like to have you wash up.” He raised his eyebrows. “And spoil my admirable d. guise? However, If you insist, I suppose I can get most of the effect again with ashes, if I have to. Where’s a bath­ room?” She indicated a doOr, .and returned to her room. He made his ablutions slowly and very thoughtfully. There were elements In this new twist of the situation which did not tally with any of his former hypotheses. Doris, too, was doing some, thinking on her own account When he returned to the sitting-room she wore the air of one who has pondered deeply and has come to a conclusion. “What do your friends call you?” she abruptly asked. “AU kinds of things,” 'admitted the young man. "I wouldn’t dare to re­ peat some of them.” Under the thoughtful regard of her re’d-brown eyes his manner changed. “My sister calls me Laurie,” he added soberly. “May I?” “By all means, if you’ll promise not to be a sister to me.” ‘Then—Laurie—” “I like that,” he Interrupted. “So do L Laurie—I—I’m going to tell you something.” “Yes?” ,he said. “Please smoke.” Again she was playing' for time. “And—and don’t look at me,” she added, almost harsh­ ly. “I—I think I can get it out bet­ ter if you don’t. His \ answer was to swing his chair around beside hers, facing the blazing logs, arid to take out his case and light a cigarette. “I’m-going to tell you everything,” she said In a low tone. “I’m glad of that” / “ I know,” she muttered, almost In- audibly. “It’s all—horrible, it’s in­ finitely worse than you suspect And that’s why I’m going to tell you the truth, big as the cost may be to me.” “Wait a minute,” he interrupted. “Let’s get this straight You’re telling me, aren’t you, that , any revelation you make now ^vill react on you. Is that it?” “Yes.” “You will he the chief sufferer by it?” . "Yes.” “yvill it help you any to have me understand? Will it straighten out the trouble you’re in?” She considered her answer. “The only help it will give me will be to Imow that; you ‘o understand,” Boston'Had the First Fire Enginie'in America The first fire engine introduced into America was received at Boston from England about 247 years ago.

T m all reaay to tell you. I've been work­ ing- myself up to it ever since you came.” "I know.

This cozy room, this roaring fire”—he interrupt­ ed himself to glance through the near­ est window—“a ripping old snow­ storm outside, that’s getting worse every minute, and the exhilarating sense that though we’re prisoners, we've already taken two perfectly good prisoners of our own; what more could one ask to make an after­ noon In the country really pleasant?” He stopped, for she was crying again, and'the sight which had taxed his strength an hour earlier, over­ taxed it now. She overwhelmed him like a breaker. He rose, and going close to her, knelt beside her chair. “Doris,” he begged, brokenly. “Don’t don’t cry! I can’t tell you how It nmkes me feel. I—I can stand anything *but that.” • He seized her hands and triedf to pull them away from her face. “Look at me,” he urged. “I’ve got all sorts of things to say to you, but I won’t say them now. This isn’t the time or the place. But one thing, at least I want you to know. I do trust you. I trust you absolutely. And whatever happens, whatever all this incredible tangle may mean, I shall always trust you.” She wiped her eyes and looked Into bis, more serious In that moment than she had ever seen them. “I will stop,” she promised, with a little catch in her voice. . “But please dont think I’m a hysterical fool. I’m not crying because I’m frightened, but because—because—Laurie, you’re so splendid!” “I told you you’d find all sorts of unexpected virtues in me,” he lightly announced; and it was the familiar Laurie who smiled down at her. “There are dozens more you, don't dream of. I’ll reveal them to you guardedly. They’re rather over­ whelming.” She smiled vaguely at his chatter, but it was plain that she was follow­ ing her own thoughts. “The most wonderful thing about ypu," she said, “is. that through this whole experience you’ve never, for one single^ instant been 'heroic* You’re not the kind to ‘emote’!” “Great Scott!” gasped Laurie, startled! ..“I should hope not!” He could look at her now, and ha did, his heart filled with the satisfy­ ing beauty of her. She was still leaning forward a little in the low chair,' with her hands unconvention­ ally clasped around one knee, and her eyes staring into the fire. A painter, he reflected, would go mad over the picture she made; and why riot'? He himself was going mad over it, was even a Uttle light-headed. She wore again the gown she had worn the first day he saw her. and the memory of that poignant hour in­ tensified the emotion of- this one. TaUng her In, from’the superb masses of hair on her small head to the glit­ tering buckles on her low house-shoes,- Laurie knew at last that whoever and whatever this girl might be, she was the one whose companionship through life' his hungry heart de­ manded. * He loved her.'

Washington.—One of the ,most pic­ turesque sea patrols in the world has just taken up its cold duty—the cov­ ering of the steamer lanes of the North Atlantic by cutters of' the United States coast guard which do the work for the international ice patrol' A bulletin irom the Washington headquarters of the National Geo­ graphic society tells what the patrol is and how it operates. "Fifteen years ago April 14, the Ti­ tanic, queen ship of the seas, carrying a precious cargo of some of the best minds of- Europe and America, ran into an iceberg 350 miles south of Cape Eace and sank with a loss of jnore than 1,500 lives,” says the bulle­ tin. “Ever since that catastrophe a guard has been kept each spring to protect the hundreds of ships and thousands of travelers on the world’s greatest ocean ship lane. No Ship Lost Since 1912. “The annual ‘battle with the bergs’ can be compared to some Jungle tragedy in which the lesser animals stand watch and wait for a Uon that has invaded their hunting ground, to sicken apd die before they again take up their normal life. The interna­ tional ice patrol, the work of which is entrusted to the seamen and ships of the United . States coast guard, watches and waits for the icebergs to die. For four months, from March’to' July, the patrol scouts for the ice monarchs which are Impelled by the Labrador current to invade the hannts of man. No successful method of attacking the ‘enemy’ has been conceived, although experiments con­ tinue. But by watching the bergs like guardian crows In a corn field, the Tampa and the Modoc are able to wsirn by wireless the whole flock of ^transatlantic shipping of ice danger. No ship has been lost since the Ice. patrol began its guard In 1912. “To the layman a report that a 33- degree cold wall is over the entire' Grand Banks means little. It Is very significant to_ tile iee* patrol. Bergs will drift down'the banks practically intact as long as they are in'the-Lab­ rador current, in which the water hov­ ers near freezing temperature. But once they cross the 'cold wall’ into the Gulf stream with its 55 or 60 de­ gree water they waste away in a few days and disappear. Each spring the Labrador current forces a cold tongue of water into the warm Gulf stream, which flows northeast toward Eng­ land. The tongue reaches maximum toward the last of April and then re-, cedes until it Is confined once more to the Labrador coast. Like Flying Dutchman. “Goinj^on ice patrol with ;either the Tampa or the Modoc in early spring is like embarking on the Flying Dutch­ man. That old legend of the Dutch skipper who was condemned to beat around Cape of Good Hope is very real to the coast guard men on North Atlantic service. The Dutch ship and crew shuttled over the sea buffeted by gales because once the captain uttered a monstrous oath. . For two Solid weeks a coast guard crew lives amid the gales of one of the most storm- plagued spots .on the seven seas be­ cause of a different sort of oath the nations made that the Titanic disas­ ter should not be repeated. That oath redeemed, the.Stodoc can steam iiito the safe shelter of Halifax for tWo ■weeks’ respite while the Tampa takes her place.” .

Dazed Only Once, Says Railroad Veteran Washington?—Conducting Presidents on official, political and private- trips about the country is a familiar expe­ rience to Capt. David E. Hardester, veteran pullman conductor of Wash­ ington. He served President Wilson ais con­ ductor of his official and private trains for eight years, and was in charge of Calvin Coolidge’s trafti, during his first flection campaign: “Koosevelt and Wilson were both effective rear platform speakers,” in Captain Hardester’s opinion, and he found them, both omniverous readers between stops. 1 “The only time I ever saw Roose­ velt falter was when a hidden camera man unexpectedly set off a noisy flash­ light,” he recalled. “It seemed to come from nowhere and startled both of us. Eooseveit recovered himself instantly and smilingly putting his hand on my shoulder, remarked* "What’s the mat­ ter with'you, Hardester?” Lizard Porridge Used to • Curb Errant Husbands Leicester, England.—Central Afri- r can native wives have a firm belief in Iiza*)] porridge as a food for errant husbands, according to Rev.'A, S.

Iirentifig In the Manufacturers’ Record. Fairbanks, Alaska.—One-section of Interior Alaska is a land of forgotten men. And the men themselves have wiped from their minds all memories of the vanities of the civilized world outside. / Three dozen men are living within the Arctic circle on the Koyukuk- river with fortunes In gold, ranging from $36,000 to $75,000, according to Capt EarI Webb, a prospector, who, after striking pay, is here on his regular winter vacation. Most of the self-interned men . are a rannanteoT the great trek toward the mecea of gold In the early Klondike days. They 'firospect the creeks In summer, hunt, fish and trap in winter. / They have married native women and settled down to enjoy their modest fortunes where wants are limited to food and a few. clothes. They use the parcel post and ex­ press to secure what luxuries their tastes demand, but there is no desire to leave their .polar wilderness.. Now and '''then some prospector makes an unusually large cleanup and turns his dust In at one of the local banks. Then only can an ,estimate be made of the (amount of .gold being regularly taken from one of Alaska’s creeks. And the greatest amounts api parently come from streams far with­ in the Arctic circle. The reticent attitude of the grim miners who come and ,go in silence and secrecy gives rise to many rumors of greater Wealth than the world has ever known somewhere up there along, the edge of the known land. What lies In the undiscovered conti­ nent just beyond Point Barrow offers the greatest lure to Alaskan sour­ doughs.- That gold in large nuggets of a per, culiar bright yellow color is waiting in the creeks along the tundra country is certain, for but recently one miner brought by dog sled four cases of dust as but a portion of his cleanup. The four parcels totaled over $40,000. Airplanes alone can aid. men In reaching and holding down these storm-bound regions and bring them supplies week In and week out, say old-timers. But the lure of gold will bring airplanes sooner or later. Smears Cheese, Pulls Gun; Ends Up in Cell Washington.—A practical joke end­ ed seriously. One man narrowly escaped with his life while another was placed under arrest on charges of intoxication and assault with a dan­ gerous weapon. ® Henry Morris, twenty-one years old. with Edward Earle, walked into a lunchroom, After a meal, police say, Morris tried to smear limburger cheese in the face of his companion and Charles Saunders, twenty-two years old, night proprietor^ of , the lunchroom, upbraided him. Argu­ ment ensued. Saunders, with Morris in pursuit, ran into a lunchroom across the street. Saunders took refuge in a telephone Booth, closing the door. When he would not open the door of the booth,1 police say, Morris took a pistol from his pocket and fired into the compart­ ment. The bullet narrowly escaped hitting Saunders, j Patrolman Jerry Broderick, attracted by the shot, hur­ ried to the scene and placed Morris under arrest Seagoing. Tramps Foiin Order to Enliven Voyage Southampton, England--jiThe “An­ cient Order of Tramps” society, just formed with headquarters on an At­ lantic liner, had for its object the re­ lief of monotony on sea voyages. Several cabin passengers and stew­ ards, during a dull voyage, conceived the idea when passengers 'generally were’ignoring the existence of each other. One of the stewards !suggested if they were tramps on the high road they would soon become ,friends. “Let us make them tramps,” said one of the cabin passengers, and the society was formed in a few weeks, with the motto “Good will and good fellowship and good tramps make good seamates.” ' Boys Run Amuck Davis, Pa--Because of strict dis­ cipline boys tore down the chimney of the district school, overturned the stove and smashed the windows. -Tt- t Decorate Blacksmith X for Artistic Skill Paris.—Because he stands for the ancient 'tradition of the clanging forge and possesses.In ; an age of machinery the skill of ' an old artisan,' France has ; pinned the red ribbon of the Le- ■ gion of Honor on the breast of a working blacksmith.

I ItTt SECRET TRAP GUARDS BRITISH CROWN GEMS Jewel Room Defiea Ingenu­ ity of Thieves. London.—The crown jewels of Eng­ land, valued at tens of millions of dol­ lars, have been placed under stricter guard since visiting American gunmen were credited with participating In, a series of gigantic jewel robberies re­ cently. The jewels, spread out In glittering array, are seen by thousands of Amer­ ican tourists every year in the Tower of London. They simply pay their sixpence, walk by'two guards attired like the familiar portraits of Henry VIII, and stand and gush over the jewels as long as they like. Then they rush out to send picture post cards back to Iowa, Kansas and Oklahoma. Appear to Be Unguarded. Apparently they are under very lit­ tle supervision, and many are heurd to remark how easy it would be to break the' glass and help one’s self to a couple of million-dollar crowns or a scepter or two. But the last serious attempt to raid the crown jewels was made by Colonel Blood In 1671 and he never recovered. The-jewel room In the Tower of London is as nearly burglar-proof as human ingenuity can devise. The oc­ tagonal glass jewel case In which the jewels are stored is protected by slen­ der steel bars five Inches apart and looks commonplace enough. It stands in the center of the jewel room and is about ten feet high. The jewels are arranged artistically on white satin tiers. Any attempt, however, to tamper with the case would set alarm bells ringing all over the tower, while the outer gates of the fortress,' started by William the Conqueror, would auto­ matically clang shut. At the same In­ stant the occupants of the jewel room would find themselves Imprisoned by the mechanical closing of the doors, which would convert the jewel room Into a large penitentiary cell. Steel shutters, ordinarily hidden from view, would automatically descend over the glass case containing the jewels, con­ verting it into a gigantic eight-sided safe. Before the! would-be burglar knew what was happening the chances are he would find himself in Scotland Yard. Famous Jewels In Collection. Among other jewels the case con­ tains: The crown of England, made for Charles II. The king’s state crown made for Queen Victoria’s coronation, contain­ ing a gigantic ruby given to the Black. Prince and worn by Henry V at Agin- eourt; a portion of the Cullinan dia­ mond presented to Edward VII by Transvaal, the Stuart “sapphire” and 3,000 smaller diamonds of only a few carats each. The Imperial state crown, made for King George V for the Delhi durbar, containing a large emerald and more than 6,000 diamonds. Queen Mary’s state crown, contain­ ing the famous Kohinoor diamond, presented to Queen Victoria by the East India company, and the two other portions of the CulHnan diamond. The royal scepter, which has the largest cut. diamond in the world for a knob. ; .When his majesty needs any of these trinkets they are taken from the Tower of London to Buckingham pal­ ace by an ordinary automobile, with­ out any special precautions other than secrecy.

Replace Bucket Brigade as Fire Guard to King London--The bucket brigade and all other paraphernalia of the old- fashioned fire-fighting outfit at Buck­ ingham palace is to be replaced by up-to-date apparatus. An ancient bell resembling those used In the United States to call the farm hands to meals already has dis­ appeared and modem gongs operated by . eleetricity have been installed to summon aid In event of emergency. Notwithstanding the antiquated fire- prevention machinery long in use at the king’s town residence, the royal palace has not had a serious blaze for many years. This is attributed to construction and the fact that the building Is guarded day and night. The worst fire in the history of the royal houses was in 1608, when White­ hall palace was destroyed;' A laun­ dress had placed a lot of Ibien before a charcoal fire: to dry and within a few hours the apartments of King William m , the privy council office and the office of the secretary of the seed >of Abraham, state had been destroyed. - - -" - Beggar Is W ealthy New York.—Horton Malone, legless beggar, who has been, going to parties from his hotel suite in a $3,000 car while Mrs. Malone has been wintering at Miami,- Is to spend a month In the workhouse.

The storm-tossed disciples on the sea at night are an example of the struggling followers-of the Lord In the darkness of the present age, as they are tossed by the tempests of the evil, one. , I. The Disciples on the Storm- Tossed Sea (vv. 22-24). 1. They are sent across the sea by Christ (v. 22). “Jesus constrained His disciples to get into a ship.” Doubtless His rea­ son for this was to keep them from' entanglement In the movement of the people to make Him King, for In John 6:14, 15, it is shown that the people were so excited by the feeding of the 5,000 that they were about to make Him King by force. 2. Christ dismisses the multitudes (v. 22). This may be taken as typical of His rejection by the nation whose rulers had already rejected Him.': 3. Christ praying alone in the moun­ tain (v. 23). Temptation to earthly honor and power had come to Him, therefore He went to the Father In prayer for re­ lief and strength. The need of prayer Is greatest at such times. According to Mark 6:43 He saw from the moun­ tain the disciples toiling on the- storm- tossed sea. II. Jesus Walking on the Sea (vv. 25-27). 1. It was In the fourth watch of the night (v. 25). He did not come to them Immediate­ ly, but waited tlll\almost dawn. How­ ever, it was the darkest part of the night. Their physical danger was great, but no doubt their mental per­ plexity was greater. They knew thafc> the Lord had sent them, but why should they be In such straits If He sent them? The stormy sea. is no evi­ dence that the disciple is not in .the Lord’s appointed way. 2. The disciples alarmed at His com- Ingv (v. 26). At the sight of Him they cried out for fear. They said: “It Is a spirit.” It was thexcoming of their best friend to deliver them from danger. 3. Jesus’ words of comfort and good cheer (v. 27). In the midst of their distress they heard the Master’s words, “Be of good cheer, it Is I, be not afraid.’’ This changed their fear to joy. III. Peter Walking on the Sea (tv. 28, 29). 1. Peters request • As soon as Peter recognized the voice of Jesus he cried: “Bid me come to thee on the water” (v. 28). 2. Jesus’ response, (v. 26). At the Lord’s “come,” Peter left the ship and walked on the water. While he kept his eyes on the Lord he walked on the waves. His faith linked him with the divine power and was thus upheld. Vital faith In Jesus Christ will enable the disciple to outride the storms of life. IV. Peter Sinking (v:"80). He took his eyes off the Lord and placed them upon the raging sea;-- This separated him from the divine power. We should learn to fix our eyes upon the Lord instead of upon our circum­ stances. ’ Failure will surely follow if we give consideration to our circum­ stances and our own' ability to master, them. V. Christ Rescuing Peter (v. 81). „ When Peter began to sink he did the sensible thing. He cried out: “Lord, save me.” Immediately Jesus stretched forth His hand and caught him. His salvation from death at the bottom of the sea was the result of the Lord tak­ ing hold of him. Jesus Christ in the Incarnation was the divine hand reach­ ing forth to rescue a sinking- world. The significance -of the expression “caught him” is made clear In Hebrews 2:16. It Is there declared that Jesus took not upon Himself the nature of angels but took upon Himself The same Greek.word occurs ^n verse 31 of this lesson. We should understand from this that the eternal. Son of God did not come in the form of a man In or­ der to show mah the .way'to God, but identified Himself with man through incorporation with-Him. He came, not as an example, But as a Savior. !I BABIES GRY FOR “ CflSIORIA Prepared Especially for and Children of AH Agcs ' Mother I Fletcher’s Castorla been In use for over 30 years pleasant, harmless substitute fL ** ■ tor Oil, Paregoric, Teething DrrI fts Soothing Syrups.

Jailor Wade Eaton is short a boarder. Early . Monday night Henry Hilton, who was sentenced to 18 months on the chain gang at the last term of court, decided he didn’t want to give much of his time to the state and proceeded to make his escape from the second story of the Jail. He removed a bar from the window, making his escape to the ground and then we imagine'he hit only the high places. Mr. Eaton wasn’t at the jail when Hilton made his escape. WTll Clouse, a prisoner, gave the alarm and^Mrs. Eaton rushed out of the building and fired a pistol six times, which, no doubt kept the other 9 prisoners from climbing out the window until help arrived. ’The prisoners were not locked in their cells, but loose in the corridor.

WHAT MODEL TD BlIYJSPUZZLE Appearance of New Designs Wrinkles Brows of Pros­ pective Owners. With the announcement of new models and new designs of motor , cars, the question arises In' the mind of the average bqyer as to Just what he should buy both from the stand­ point of monetary Investment as well as from that of model. In the aver­ age household the selection of. a new automobile.ls a momentous question. ' It is generally considered that all automobiles are good. Representatives of various machines will enthusias­ tically point out their good qualities. There is no doubt that every make of automobile has Its merits. The ques­ tion for a prospective buyer to ask is, “For the particular purpose that I need an automobile, what car will best serve that purpose?” Can It Be Afforded? For his particular needs, a certain make of car may be found. The next question is, “Can I afford to pay that price? If not, should I wait until I can afford that price or shall I try to get another car which will approxi­ mately meet my needs at the price I can afford to pay, or have I a delusion as to my capacity to pay?’’ In selecting the car the prospective buyer must consider also the period of time he will want to use a car. For Instance, if he expects to trade his automobile In each year toward a new machine of the same make, this will have a bearing on the matter.,- He ,will want to consider especially what percen tage of depreciation Is likely to take place during one season. Per­ haps he wants an automobile for a certain short period of time or for a specific purpose. That Is one situation. On the other hand, he may want a car Which will serve him continuously for the longest possible length of time. Year Depreciation High. Some of the more exclusive cars will give continuous service over a long period of time and can be de­ pended upon for such performance. In fact, they may wear so well that they will become out of style and lacking in, some conveniences which may have been developed in the mean­ time. For those who wish to trade in tbeir car yearly for a new one the deprecia­ tion, In actual dollars, is, of course, considerably higher on a high-priced car than on a lower-priced one, al­ though the proportionate depreciation may-not be as ,large. On the other hand, the lowest-priced automobile may be unable to stand uninterrupted service such-as the owner desires even for a year. The cheapest priced car, however, as a rule, can be expected to give the lowest cost in actual trans­ portation. Ovraer Should Lock Car to Avoid Much Trouble If all motorists would seciirely lock their cars, even though they left them but for a minute or two, crimes of all natures would be considerably decreased, says Fred H. Caley, secre­ tary of the Cleveland Automobile club. “It is a known fact that crimes in­ crease proportionately with the num­ ber of automobiles stolen.. The auto­ mobile is as imperative to the criminal of today as the horse was to ‘bad men’ of frontier days,” he said. “The thief has gotten so that he depends entire­ ly upon the automobile. It Is neces­ sary for his getaway and after that has been accomplished it is an easy matter for him to abandon the car In some locality where he would never be suspected.” Horses Better Than Jacks When it is necessary to jack up the car and get underneath, be sure the car is held up securely. Be especially careful if any of tbe wheels have been removed. Block the other wheels to keep them-from moving. If the sup­ port should give way the car may fall and crush you. It is best to use a pit if possible. Never depend on jacks when it is necessary to get under a car. Horses are better ,support than jacks, ordinary boxes or blocks. Re­ member, the brakes are not operative when the rear wheeis are jacked up off the ground. \ .

That was all she said, but it was enough. Again he turned away from her and looked into the fire. “I want to talk to you about It nometime,” he went on. “Not now,- of conrse. I’m going In for the aviation end. That's my game.” "Yes, it would be,” she corroborated, almost lnaudibly. Tre been thinking about It a lot,” be repented. There was as intense, tmeipected relief In this confidence, witch be had made to no one else but Bings, and to him in only a casual phrase or two. “That’s one reason why It ltas been hard for me to get down to ITork en a new play, as Bangs and Epstttn Have been hounding me to do. I Vas afraid I couldn’t keep eg Dlud Sn it. All I can think of, besides y<ro—” he hesitated, then went on rather self-consciously—“are those fellofrs over there and the tremen­ dous jo& they’re doing. I want “to help. I'm going to help. But I’m not solng into It with any ,illusions about military bands and pretty uniforms and grand-stand plays. It’s the blg- 6«t Job In the world today, and it’s Sot to be done. But what I see in it In the meantime are blood and filth and stench and suffering and horror Ud a limitless, stoical endurance. And—well, I know I’m going. But I can’t quite see myself coming hoibe." Save tor his revelation on the morn­ ing they met, this was the longest per­ sonal confident® Laurence Devon had STer made to Another human being ex- “Pt his sister Barbara. At Its end, as she could not speak, he watched j>ar tor a moment In silence, already wgrettlnj what he had said, "nen she rose with a fiercely abrupt movement, and going to the window •food looking at the storm.

At last the head nodded and he expeditiously untied the bandage. "The very best you’ve got, please,' he instructed. “And I hope you can cook. If you can’t, I’ll have to do it myself. Vw rather gifted that way.' “I can cook,” avowed the old woman sullenly. “Good work! Then go on your Joy­ ous way. But If you feel an Impulse to invite Into yonr kitchen any of the gentlemen out in the grounds, or to release the secretary, restrain It. They wouldn't like It in here. They wouldn’t like It at all.” A strange grimace twisted 'the woman’s sardonic features. He inter­ preted It rightly. "Tm glad you agree with me,” he said. “Now, brook trout, please, and broiled chickens, and early strawber­ ries and clotted cream.” She looked at him with a return of the stoic expression that was her ha­ bitual one. "We ain’t got any of those things, she declared. "We ain’t?” Her guest was pained. "What have we got?” “We got ham and eggs and lettuce and milk and. coffee and squash pie.’ He sighed. “They will do,” he said resignedly. "Do you think yon could have them ready In five minutes?” : The luncheon was a cheerful meal, for Laurie made It so. When it was finished he went to the kitchen win­ dow, opened it, and carefully arranged several hot ham sandwiches In a row. “For the birdies,”’ he explained. "For the cold little birdies out In the grounds.” "This storm will be a good thing for ns,” he mentioned to Doris, when they had returned to the upstairs sitting room. “It will be dark soon after four, and the snow will cover our foot­ steps. But I’m inclined to think,” he added, reflectively, “that before we start I’d better go out and truss up those two birds In the grounds.” She showed an immediate apprehen­ sion. “No, not you,mustn’t think of that!” she cried. “Promise me you won’t,” He shrugged his shoulders. “As you wish, of course. But if they interfere when we’re getting started, surely you’ll let me rock them to sleep, won’t yon?” She did not move, but gave him a look that made him thoughtful. It was an odd, sidelong look, frightened but watchful. He remembered that once or twice before she had given him such a look. More than anything else that had happened, this glance chilled him. 'It was not thus that the woman he loved should look at him. Suddenly he heard her gasp, and the next instant the silence of the room was broken by another voice, a voice of concentrated rage wlch e snarl run­ ning through it. "So you’re here, are you?” it jerked. lBy G—d, I’m sick of you and of your d—d interference!” He tuftied. Shaw was standing just' Inside the door. But he was not the sleek, familiar, torpid figure of recent encounter. He seemed mad clean through, fighting mad. His jaws were set; his sleek head and heavy shoul­ ders were thrust forward as if he were ready to spring, and- his protuberant eyes had lost their haze and held a new and unpleasant light. But, angry though be appeared, Her­ bert Ransome Shdw was taking no chances In this encounter, with his un- deslred guest. Behind him shone the now smug countenance of the blond secretary, and on each side he was flanked by another man. Powerful fellows these two seemed, evidently Italian laborers, gazing at the scene uncomprehendingly, but ready for any work their master set them. In stu­ pefaction, Laurie stared at the tab­ leau, while eight eyes unwlnkingly stared back at him; Then he nodded. “Well, Bertie,” he said pleasantly, "yon’re outdoing yourself In the size of this delegation. Four to one. Quite some odds.” His voice changed.. “You contemptible coward! Why don’t you take me on alone? Have you got your chloroform cone?" The complexion of Shaw, red with cold, darkened to an apoplectic purple. "You’ll soon find out wfiat we’ve got,” he barked, “and « what’s coming to you. Now, are you going to put up a fight against four, or will you go quietly?” “I think,” said Laurie thoughtfully, “I’d rather go quietly. But just where is it Tm going?” “You’ll soon know.” Shaw was car­ rying a coll of rope, light but strong, and now he tossed it to one of the Ital­ ians. “Tie him up,” he curtly ordered. “Oh, no,” said Laurie, backing a step: "Tut, tut I I wouldn't advise that I really wouldn’t It wonld be one of, those rash acts. you read A b o rt.” *. Something Jd his voice checked the forward stride of the Italian with the rope. He hesitated, glancing at Shaw. With a gesture, the latter ordered the two men through the door. "Walt IHist outside,” he directed. He turned to Laurie. “Out you go!” he ordered brusquely. . Laurie hesitated, glancing at Doris, but be could not meet her eye. At the window, with her -back to the room, she stared out at the storm. Even In that moment her attitude stunned him. Also, he felt an unconquerable aver­ sion to anything In the nature of a struggle before her. Perhaps, once outside the room, he could take on those rafiians, together or in turn. Without another word, he crossed the threshold Into the hall. Before him hurried the two Italians. Behind him crowded Shaw and the secretary, He walked forward six strides. Then, as the side railing of the stairway rose beside him, he saw his opportunity. He struck out right and left with all his strength, flooring one of the Ital­ ians and sending the second helpless against the wall. In the next Instant he had leaped over the slender rail of the stairway, landed half-way down the stairs, and made a Jump for the front door. , As he had expected, the door was locked. Shaw, If he had entered that way, had not been too hurried to at- CJ His First Blow Sgnt the Blond Secre­ tary to the Floor, Where He Lay Motionless. tend to this little detail. Laurle bad just time to brace his back 'against it when the four men were upon him. If he could have taken them on one by one he could have snapped their necks in turn, and he would have done so without compunction. As it was, with four leaping at him simultane­ ously, he called on ,all his reserve strength, his skill In boxing, and the strategy of his football days. His first blow sent the blond secre­ tary to the floor, where he lay motion­ less. After that it. was hard to dis­ tinguish where blows fell. What Devon wanted and was striving to reach was the throat of Shaw, but the slippery thing eluded him. He fought on with hands and feet, even drawing, against these odds, on the savate be had learned in Paris. Blood flowed from his nose,, his ear and his lip. Shaw’s face was bleeding, too,; and soon one of the Italians had joined the meek young secretary in his slumbers on the floor. Then Lau­ rie felt his head agonizingly twisted backward, heard the creak of a rusty bolt, and, In the next Instant; was hurled hekdlong through the suddenly opened door, to the snow-covered ve­ randa. As he pulled himself up, crouching for a return spring, SBaw1 Oisheveted and breathless on the threshold, jerk­ ily addressed him. “Try lit again if you like, you young devil," he panted, “but remember one thing: the next time you won’t get off so easily.” The door Slammed, and again the bolt shot into place. Laurie listened. No sound whatever came from the loner hall. The old house was ^gain apparently dead, after Its moments of fierce life. He slowly descended the steps, and, bracing himself againBt the nearest tree, stared at the house, still BaspIng from the effects of the struggle. He was out of it but he had left Doris behind. The fact sickened him. So did the lgnqminy of his departure. He was not even to be followed. His absence was all the gang desired. His impulse was to force the door and again face the four of them. But he realized that he could accomplish nothing against such odds, and cer­ tainly, as a prisoner In the house, trussed up with Shaw’s infernal rope, he would be of no use to either Doris or himself. He decided to return to the garage and get his car and the weapon he had left there. Then, If the four still wanted to flght he would show them something that might take the spirit out of them. Having arrived at this sane conclu­ sion, he turned away from the silent house, and, hatless and coatless as he was, hurriedly made his way through the heavy snow-drifts toward the pub­ lic road. CHAPTER XIV M r. ShawDecides to Talk At the garage' he found Burke faith­ ful to his trust and with an alert eye out for more five-dollar bills. The pro­ prietor temporarily lost sight of these, however, In his sudden and vivid in­ terest In the new patron’s appearance. Laurie answered his questions with a word that definitely checked the fur­ ther development of curiosity. Then, huddling over the stove, and warming his icy, soaked feet, he curtly 'outlined his intentions. He was going to change back into his own clothes, he explained, and he would want his car at five o’clock sharp. This, he Inti­ mated, would give Burke a little more than half an hour in which to get his mental processes started again and to have the car ready. Burke whistled lnaudibly. Obvi­ ously the Joke the lad had played had not panned out to the young man’s taste. Burke was sorry for that. His experience had been that with these young “rounders” generosity went hand In hand with success and its at­ tendant exhilaration; and that when depression set In, as It o'jviously had done In this instance, a sudden par­ alysis numbed the open palm. However, even granting that this was so, he had already been largely overpaid for anything he had done or might still be expected to do. He nodded bis response to the young man’s instructions, and though he was not a subtle person, he succeeded In conveying at the same time a sense of his' sympathy wit'- the natural an­ noyance of a high-spirited' practical joker whose joke had plainly miscar­ ried. Ordinarily his attitude would have amused Devon, but Laurie was far from his sense of humor just now. Still whistling softly, Burke departed, to make a final Inspection of the car, leaving Laurie the sole occupant of the cramped an'd railed-ln corner that represented the private office. That young man was In the grip of a characteristic Devon rage, and as he rapidly got back into his own cloth­ ing his fury mounted until the blood pounded at his temples. He dared not let himself sum up the case against Shaw, though the manner in which he had been kicked out savored strongly of contempt Evidently Shaw didn't care where he was, so long as he was outside of the house. Neither dared he sum up the case against Doris, though -he could not for a moment banish from his mind the picture of her as she had stood with her back to him and his four assail­ ants. Why had. she stood thus? Be­ cause she was indifferent1- to any fate that, befell him? Or because she was numbed by her own misery? Crowd­ ing forward with these questions was a sick fear for her, alone In that sin­ ister honse with four thugs and an old hag whose sole human quality seemed to be a sardonic sense of humor ex­ ercised at- bis, Laurie’s, expense.

DEPENDABLE LAXATIVE STYLES IN CROOKS’ WEAPONS CHANGE Carefully Selected Pistol Is , Now Favorite. New York.—The weapon would have appealed to anyone with a likjng for firearms; its long blue barrel looked grim and forbidding, and though its curved butt was inlaid with ivory there was nothing suggestive of a toy about it On the contrary, this pistol, well oiled and polished, gave the im­ pression that it was ready at all times for action. A stroke of good fortune had landed both weap-a and owner in the hands of. the police. A detective carefully extracted the bullets from the cham­ ber, counted them and placed them in an envelope for future reference. He remarked that from his observa­ tions the pistol is today the favorite weapon of the crook. The criminal selects his weapon with great care and does not hesitate to pay a good price for if. Indeed, he seldom buys a cheap weapon; most of the firearms which the police have seized and confiscated are in first-class working condition. The crook usually carries aH 2 o ra .38, though occasion­ ally he totes a .45. However, as a rule he finds this caliber of pistol too large and unwieldy for - his purpose. He prefers-a smaller weapon since it U easier to conceal;. “Crooks,” said a detective, “use a great variety of weapons. Just as a shoemaker is known by his last a thief Is known by the instruments he car­ ries. You can usually tell by a crook’s weapon what particular line of crimi­ nality he follows. A decade ago crooks used a great many more kinds of weapons than they do. now. The average criminal is content with “a single weapon. Pistol the Favorite. “A large percentage of criminals have discarded other weapons solely for the pistol. “When hold-ups were quite common detectives intercepted three robbers as they ran from a store. One of them bad a formidable magazine-gun. He bad cut off the rounded points of the bullets and had flattened them out, ob­ viously with the intention of plowing a big hole In the anatomy of a victim be might feel inclined to shoot The incident suffices to show the callous­ ness and cruelty of the average crimi­ nal and how little he cares for human life. “There are plenty of men in the de­ partment today who can recall the time when gun-toting criminals were much more the exception than the rule. Indeed, there were any number of professional crooks who never used firearms in their business. They used other weapons which answered their purpose better, and some of tbeir fa­ vorite weapons are seldom seen or heard of now. “The club was a primitive weapon and was superseded by the sandbag, which worked effectively and left few marks. A short piece of rubber hose was used for the same purpose. The sandbag is out of date, but occasion­ ally crops up. “The sandbag was discarded for the blackjack. A blow from a loaded blackjack will put anyone quickly to sleep. Akin to the blackjack are brass knuckles, and frequently a victim is unable to say whether he has been hit by one or the other. Both of them are occasionally used today by thugs. They are regarded as deadly weapons and it is as serious an, offense to have them In one’s possession as a pistol. . “A few years ago a long, sharp- bladed knife or a dagger vied with the pistol in popularity. Indeed, there were far more stabbing affrays than shootings that came under the notice of the police. The wielder of dagger or knife often used these instruments with deadly effect, and occasionally some one would be stabbed to death. In recent years there has been a big falling off in such crimes and instead of being stabbed people are now shot. Gunman a Weakling. “The gun-toting criminal is a re­ cent product He attained his full prominence a few years ago when crime was rampant He is a different product from the old-type criminal who was strong and robust and did not need a gun. The present-day gun­ men are invariably puny, undersized men, and are weak mentally as well as physically. You see Innumerable ex­ amples of them as they dribble into station houses; and they are all' alike —sallow, frail, undersized, the sickest- looking lot of criminals the' world ever saw. “They are only daring ,when they are under the spell of narcotics, A large number of criminals are con­ firmed drug addicts, and in order to keep themselves supplied with drugs they will often take a desperate chance. Some of these criminal ad. diets spend $5 to $25 a day on drugs. A good many crooks who hold up drug stores do so to get narcotics. It Is common for one of them to demand narcotics of a druggist If they are unable to get their favorite drug they will hold up a store to get money with which to purchase drugs. “it is seldom criminals get drunk when they have serious work to do. They realize that a drunken hold-up man wourd not get very far. He would be slow in action and liable to queer the whole works. This hap­ pened when a'drunken Indian attempt­ ed to hold up a Chicago hotel.” Divorces Increase ‘ KSndori.—Divorces are increasing be­ cause newspapers are row forbidden to print ihe detzlin. | f RAFFIC TOO HEAVY, PARKS FOR SLUMBER Excited Woman Thought Au- toist' Was Dead. New York.—LieuL David McCann sat in comparative peace In Brooklyn police headquarters and then 'sudden­ ly the telephone rang. “There’s a dead man in an automobile at Locust ' avenue and East Thirteenth ■ .street,” a woman’s voice announced excitedly. “Yes?” Inquired the, IleutenanL That broke up the lieutenant’s morn­ ing—that and nine other .telephone call6 like IL McCann reported: “A flock of dead men in automobiles at the oorner of Locust^*avenue and East Thirteenth street” A wagon load of police went ovei)!' \There was Inspector John J.

And there, sure enough, was the automobile with a man in the rear seat Doctor Kobinson was called from the Kings county hospital. “Looks bad,” he remarked, and shook the body. . There was no response. Then he prepared to test the heart action. That time there was a response. “What,” inquired the body, turning suddenly into Ralph Harrison, twenty- five years old, “is the matter?" “You tell us,” suggested the police, In unison. “I remember now,” said Harrison, suddenly. “Last night I had a drink or two and then everywhere I went I could see three or four cars coming toward me. I decided that traffic was pretty hard and pulled over to the curb to take a nap. And there you are.”- . A detective drove him home. King George Gets Up Early Every Morning Sandringham, England.—Strict self- discipline has not been relaxed since King George and Queen Mary took up winter residence at this royal de­ mesne and cast-iron "punctuality re­ mains the rule for the household. The court will remain in residence here until the spring, when it will be transferred to Buckingham palace in London prior to the king’s contem­ plated cruise in the Mediterranean sea. King George rises, as he always does, on the first\stroke of eight, ex­ cept on Fridays, when he gets up at 7:30 in order to have his hair and beard trimmed. Mother and son paid a prearranged visit to the historic town hall and inspected the ancient underground dungeons, the walls of which are built into the • foundations, and are from three to six feet thick. Despite the depressing atmosphere of subter­ ranean dungeons On a foggy rainy day, the queen went through the whole program before she returned to tea. Dislocates His Neck; Surgeon Grafts Bone St. Louis.—Holding up .the neck of James B. Parsons, Jr., who suffered dislocation of his neck In an autpmo- bile accident, Septembe.r I, Is a five- inch piece of shin bone. The bone grafting operation was performed by Dr. F. L. Morse after a futile attempt to kni,t the neck verte­ brae by the use of plaster cast alone. Although somewhat reluctant-to talk about himself, Doctor Morse admits the success of bis operation has been a surprise even to himself. Slight paralysis had already set in, affecting the nervous system of Par­ sons’ left arm and side when Doctor Morse attempted the operation at the St. Louis Baptist hospital. The basal vertebrae of the neck had been thrown directly forward, but not enough to. sever the nerves running from the base of the brain, and at St, Mary’s hospital the neck was set and placed In a plaster cast Parsons’ neck was In- this cast four mohths, but when the cast was removed the neck again.slipped forward. Paper From Cornstalks Promised by Professor Ames, . Iowa.—Corn belt farmers may soon be able to turn their corn­ stalks into money. Paper can be made from the stalks, but this knowledge has done the corn grower no good' because there has been no way found to harvest the stalks In quantities large enough to justify their substitution for wood pulp by the paper factories. . Now E. V. Collins, professor of agri­ cultural engineering at Iowa State col­ lege, has devised a machine which he believes will do the work. It snaps the stalk off at the root, separates the ShuckeiA corn into one wagon and puts the stalk, after shredding it for baling; into another. Peer of Trappers Gets' 15,600 Pests as Catch '•-Salt Lake City, Utah.—For eleven years Roy Mussalman has trapped on the Indian creek cattle range. He has lived a secluded life at his lonely cabin In Mormon creek, pasture, Jack, a large, grizzly dog of undeter­ mined ancestry, -and Old Blue; his faithful horse, being his only com­ panions. , In this time he has caught 2,100 lynx, or bobcats," 6,000 coyotes, 1,500 foxes, 6,000 badgers and civet cats and numberless crows and small pests. Stockmen whose ranges he has' pro­ tected consider he has no peer in the West as a trapper. DEFINE ‘BY JIMIMY’ AS OATH OF ROMANS Originated From Uie Name of Twin Stars. Washington.—“By Jiminy I” Many people have uttered this ex­ clamation with no thought of where it came from. As • a matter of fact, when you say “by Jiminy” you are shearing a Roman Oath1Tiy two of the. Romans’ favorite gods. And then, by looking in the southern sky on an eve­ ning In the late winter, the gods,- or at least the stars which represent them, can be seen. These are the twins, Gemini, Jthe astronomerwcalls them, and so did the Romans, and when we consider the. great changes that words may undergo in a few ,hundred years it seems little wonder that our mod­ em “jiminy” is so similar to the orig­ inal name. Favorite Stars of Sailors. These stars, and the gods they rep­ resent, were special favorites of sail­ ors, and often the figures of Castor and Pollux, the twins, were placed as figureheads on ships. In the Bible we are told that when SL Paul left the island of Malta, -where he had been shipwrecked, he “departed In a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered In the isle whose sign was Castor and Pollux.” But still earlier than Roman times, Castor and Pollux were important Archeologists have often found in the ruins of ancient Babylon boundary stones and monuments with the “triad of stars”—the symbol of a crescent moon jand two stars near it These are among the oldest known records made by man, anl they also are the oldest records of an astronomical event The two stars are the twins. The Babylonian priests, who were also the'astronomers, regulated the calen­ dar, and the year began when the twins and the new moon could be seen together in the western sky at dusk. Now this happening comes at an en­ tirely different time of year, on ac­ count of the motion of the stars, but we still are reminded of these ancient times, 6,000 years ago, by these Baby­ lonian inscriptions. Binary Stars Not Uncommon, Castor is the brighter of the twins, and is known as Alpha-- Gemini to the astronomer, 1 This follows the usual meaning of stars, and so the name means that it is the brightest star in the constellation of Gemini. When it is seen through a telescope it is no longer a single orb, but is revealed as a pair of twin suns, or what as­ tronomers call a binary star. Binary stars are not uncommon in tbe' sky, for about one out of every eighteen that we see can be shown as double by a large telescope, but Castor is one of the finest. Like all true double stars, the two members of the pair are continually revolving around each other. Wide Pants, Short Skirt Start Rumanian Riot Bucharest, Rumania.—Armed police had to be called upon here to rescue Rumanian dudes, exponents of the “charleston" trousers, as Oxford bags are called here, and pea jackets and pancake1' hats, frora a mob of self- appointed sartorial censors who as­ serted their esthetic sensibilities had been outraged by the exotic raiment One youth, cornered by 200 men, was forced to promise to change his trousers. Police rescued him and, with drawn bayonets to keep back the crowd, took him to the station house. The fair sex is not escaping the at­ tentions of the censors.

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—W hat think ye of Christ? The disciples had been with the Lord for several years. They had heard His wonderful words and wit­ nessed His mighty works. Various opinions were extant about dim. Since Jesus was soon to go to the cross it was necessary for the disciples to have a definite and true conception of Him. In order to help them into the right conception, He provoked .this confes­ sion from Peter as the spokesman of the group of disciples. I. Peter's Confession (w. 13-16). L How provoked. Two questions of Christ put to the disciples called forth this great con­ fession. , * (1) Whom dq^ men say K the Son of Man, am (v. 13). 1. He first inquired for the opinion of the people concerning Him. As a wise teacher He knew that this would help crystallize the view of the dis­ ciples. The people recognized Jesus as a teacher or a prophet, with more than human authority and power. To. day, as then, there Is a diversity of opinion among tbe people as to Jesus Christ The multitudes today recog­ nize Jesus as an unique personality and as having been 'd great teacher, but that which .offends them is His deity. (2) “Whom say ye that I am?” (v.15). This question ,involved the personal opinion of the disciples concerning Him. To be able to tell what others think of Jesus Is not enough. There must be definite; correct and personal belief In Him. Personal belief is worth infinitely more than the knowledge of what others think, for upon personal belief hinges character and destiny. 2. What Peter’s confession involved (v. 16). Two vital things, the Messlahship and deity of Jesus. That which Jesus called forth from Peter is the burning question" of today. “Wharthink ye of Christ?” is the question that must be answered by everyone. "8. Christ’s commendation ot Peter (v. 17). He pronounced him blessed. Trnly he was blessed, for he both possessed' and cohfessed Chrlsi II. The New Body, the Church, An­ nounced by Christ (w. 18-20). Christ declared H is' intention of bringing into existence a new body, to the members of which He will give eternal life and into whose hands He would entrust the keys of the King­ dom. Peter was to have a distin­ guished place in this body. Christ de-' clared that Peter should be the founda­ tion stone In His church. Christ is the chief comer stone upon which the church is built Christ’s person and Messiahship were confessed by Peter and on this rock (truth confessed) is laid the foundation bfjhe apostles and prophets (Eph. 2:20). AU believers are living stones of this house (I Pet 2:5). The keys entrusted to Peter were used on the day of Pentecost and again In the case of Cornelius. III. The Cross the Way to the Throne (w. 21-28 ). From that time Jesus began to show unto the disciples how that He must go unto Jerusalem and suffer many things, be killed and raised again tbe third day. This indeed startled the disciples. They did not yet realize that redemptions, was to' be accom­ plished through Jhe passion of the cross. So unwelcome was this an­ nouncement that-Peter cried: “This shall not be unto thee.” Peter later saw through this darkness to the glory of the hilltops. A new hope then filled his heart (I Pet 1:8, 4). Many are yet stumbling over the doctrine of salvation and. redemption through the suffering of the cross. Salvation by blood is hated by the devil. IV. The Cost of Discipleshlp (v. 24). To follow Christ means, to suffer. It means to turn one’s back upon the world. L There must- be’' denial Of" sell There is a wide difference between self-denial and the denial of self. 2. Take up His cross. This cross is the suffering and shame which lie In the path of IoyaltA to God. ' 8. Follow Christ This means to'have the mind of Christ; to be like Christ Christ will come in glory to reward, all such. ' The Power of Gdd Many a battle has been won by the arrival of reinforcements.

Ij Editor Catches on Fire. ~ EditorDan Bivins1 of the Albe-- toare Press, on Sunday attends church and helps in a religious way by passing around the plate for the collections. While perform ing this pleasant duty last Sunday a lady in the congregation noticed games issuing from the pocket of the editors coat and immediately gave the alarm. “ Take this plate," said Divins to one of the other collectors and he made a hasty exit from the building leaving a trial of smoke behind. He come out of the coat in a jiffy and tlie fire w‘as extin­ guished but it is not stated wheth­ er he returned to eujov the sermon or not. If the preacher’s sermon that day had been on “ Hellfire” Bivins could have illustrated the sermon in fitting manner. . The Origin of the fire has not been definitely determined though there are several theories as to how the conflagration” started. . Most people believe that charity begins at home, with the other members of the family doing the giving. When.the average man gets an opportunity-to .toot his horn he ,Spends most of his time blowing in- Jo the tnouth' piece.

In Death Valley out in Califor­ nia a strange things has occurred. A shifting saud dune has' uncover­ ed the skeleton or7 a miner. Gne of his bony arms was curved a- round a block of pyrites—knowu as fool’s gold. A scrap of yellow pa per was also found with the words, ‘‘I die rich.” Poor fellow, he died hugging to his heart a yellow lump of wortu- Iess fool's gold When a lad I found a large piece of it in a pile of coal With great joy I hurried home with m y. find, only to be laughed at by the fa’mily for my foolishness. I was saddened recently in learn­ ed that-a certain young niauTkad deserted his w ife... I had married them two years ago. At the time of the wedding I remarked my wife', “ He is one of the finest Iook- grooms we have ever seen.’ The real truth concerning him was that he was a clever, sllek- looking 'crook, forger, gambler—a piece of fool’s gold, goo'd looking but worse than worthless. Another acquaintance of miije married a lovely young woman, only to find himself married to a drug .addict. Fool’s gold. Real goldonay become fool’s gold when we are tempted to get it in illegal when and unjust ways. Short weights UDdue monopolies, work little .children in sweated industries, just for gold, is the gold of a . fool. God lias put into nature the es­ sence of a thousand pleasures. They are tne possession of all people who will live sensibly and right­ eously. Yet in the nature of Se cret there is a secred fire that may cousume and destroy if used by a fool. * Called to a hospital last week to pray with a dying woman, I found a poor creature whose husband had shot her. Drink, infidelity, and dishonor had written a book of life where.the gold of love is turned in­ to a fool’s gold of lust. The real richest of life are with­ in rather than without us Who­ ever will try to follow in the way of life first lived by Christ will find gold in thoughts that are ever up­ lifting; gold in fancy where imagi­ nation builds her chaste castles in the air gold in habits that carry us safelyjthrough the pitfalls and trials of life; gold in the heart love of our dear loved ones which is richer than all rabies; gold in f riendships that make life well worth while; gold in the faith that, after this life, the real value of character will shine undimmed for aye—real gold. Youthful Driver. The greatest menace to automo­ bile driving safety is the drunken driver, but next to him is the child driver. The law that prohibits children under sixteen years of age from driving or attempting to.dnve, a car is one that should be rigidly enforced. A child in his early teens has not developed enough judgment to be able to act quickly. ,For that matter many giown peo­ ple cannot measure up to the enier- gencies which frequently confront the automobile driver, but natural­ ly not so much is expected of a child. If parents do not" and will not consider the risks taken when children drive and allow them at, the wheel, then it is fitting that the law should protect others to such an extent as is possible along this.liue. Then the officers should see to it that'it means more than a few sentences on the stature books. Children should be kept out of the drivers seat.—News Herald. Some married men never know when they are well off because they never are, - . v Smith Grove SchooL The Calvary Moravian Sunday school and church orchestra of Wins­ ton Salem gave a concert in the high school auditorium Wednesday night,- April 6th. A splendid program of orchestral selections and vocal nuiru. bers had been arranged under the directionrof J. L Kapp, director of the orchestra.' In addition to the twenty members of orchestra sever­ al other Winston-Salem people were present, among the number being Mr. P. G. Renninger jind wife and Mr. Sherrill Bowen of the Piano com­ pany. The program was thoroughly enjoyed by all present. Proceeds were for the benefit of the school. The Smith Grove school is nearing the end of one of the most success, ful school years of its history. Sev­ eral improvements have been made About two hundred and fifty volum­ es have been added to the high school library, $600.00 worth of la­ boratory equipment, for the teach­ ing of science has been provided, al so library tables, maps, etc. The re quirements necessary to place the school on the accredited list of high schools in the state A filing cabi­ net for reports and extra science tables are being added which com-' pletes the requirements for stand-’ ardization of the school. The senior- class class. which is the first class to graduate from this school are as follows: Flossie Foster, Elizabeth Hendrix, Helen Foster. Hazel Mc­ Daniel, Nellie .Hendrix and Cletus Sparks. In addition to meeting require­ ments for standardization tbe school has removed an indebtedness of $150' 00. A piano debt which has been running for three years has been re­ moved, A-nevideneeof good^ehoiis' spirit was shown in removing, this debt, the greater part of the am'ount being raised by contributions from parents and friends of the school The names of those who contri­ buted are as follows: Mrs H.

Several years ago, on account of so many northern hunters -coining into the county, reinforced by lo­ cal sportsmen, quail got so scarce in Surry that one could hunt some­ times for a half a day and never! flush a covey. I An act was passed through the' legislature making a close season ; for quail for five years. This was done to give the- birds an opportu­ nity. to increase and the farmers were also in favor of the law as the quail is the best friend a man has on his farm. At the end of five years quail were abundant again but we-understand that they are a- gain getting scarce owing to ,the greediness of the hunters who go in the fields and slaughter them. At the last session of the legisla­ ture a bill of similar import was passed for Stokes county making a closed season for two years -and another for Union county making the closed season five years but latter on came the wiseacres', and passed a State wide game law that repealed all local laws insofar as they conflicted with the State, laws and of couse the Stokes and Union bills went over boord. ; The new law provided a number of officer for “deserving Demo­ crats” one of them chief game com­ missioners at a salary of $4,500 a year and other expenses. J. K. Dixon, head. of the old fisheries commission, landed in the place and we presume he will a- gain quarter his family at Roaring ’G apH hfi^U m ihefitf-the'Sl^^i^f^ ed cottage at the taxpayers! /ex-, pense as has been dope in the past. It is powerful hot. in Jones county, the home of Dixon in the summer, and it is ever so pleasant in the mountains. - .. p A Lexington lawyer is at Ihe head of the commission at a fancy salary with a lot of assistants dir­ ecting his work from a swival chair in a Raleigh office. This canservation and develop­ ment proposition, State game com­ mission, fisheries . cotnmi sion et cetera, ad finitum is nothing more or less than to give a lot o f' Demo • crats jobs and the taxpayers foot the bills. Instead of conserving the game it means that a lot more of it will be slaughtered by unscrupulous hunters.—Union Republican.

Hatness and Hoss Watts, o f Statesville, are among those who are going to carry the Al Smith Banner in North Carolina. No com­ ment necessary. If the speeding of autos on our streets is not curbed, we fear a fatal acci dent will occur before the sum­ mer is ended. Most of the reck­ less driving is done, by parties who have been nowhere and are going nowhere in particular and have no business when they get there Josephus Daniels says the Demo­ cratic party would make an awful mistake if they nominated Al Smith for president. We know of a few good Baptist and Methodist Demo, crats in Mocksville who would be glad to vote for Al, but. thank the Lord, there are not mauv of them. It is said that there is but one out of fity Democrats in.North Carolina frbo favor Smith for president. Something should be done by the city fathers in regard to the public square. A goodly portion of the said square is so rough and full of gullies that it is almost im­ possible to get a car over the rough p la ces.It would cost a lot of mon v ey to concrete this square, but a few car loads of gravel would work a miracle. If the town daddies want to go down in history as hav­ ing done something to be proud of, let them get busyffcefore the ides of May roll around. Frank 0 . Lowderi, former Gov­ ernor of Illinois, and a candidate for president before the Republi can National Convention in 1920, has announced that -he is a re­ ceptive'candidate for president on the Republican ticket next year. Mr. Lowden is a big man, and so far as we know; he is a good fellow, but the editor doesn’t ever remem­ ber seeing an uglier man than the said Mr. Lowden. It he can get the nomination we will support him. Tbe Record was for him six years. - ago —before we had the pleasure of seeing him. I. M. Williams Dead. Funeral of Louis Malcolm Wil­ liams, 54 who^passed away Tues­ day afternoon, was conducted from the home, Brookstown Ave1 at 9 o’clock Thursday morning and from Fork Baptist Church, Davie county, at 11 o'clock by Rev. J. E- Carter and Rev. A. G. Carter. Burial .was in the church grave­ yard. Mt. Williams had been ill about three weeks' and his condi­ tion had been serious for several days. He was a native of Davie county, born December 19, 1872, a son of J. R. and Sarah Clark Wil liams For a number-of years he had been engaged in the mercan­ tile business in Winston Salem, and conducted a store under name of L. M. Williams Grocery. Mr. Williams is survived by his. wife, who was Miss Nota Garwood prior to marriage; bis father and mother; four sisters, Mrs E., W. Turner, of Hamptonville; Mrs. S. B. Gar­ wood, of Davie county; Mrs. K. L. Jones of Atlanta and Miss Floy Williams, of Davie county; four brohers, L- F. Williamsof Martins­ ville, Va., F. E. Williams of Davie couuty, and E R- and C. V. Wil­ liams of Winston-Salem. ‘ We understand that the Demo- . cratic' city convention will meet ; here on April 30th for-the purpose of nominating a mayor, board ,of 'Alderman and members of the town school board, We don’t know whether Republicans will heave a voice in the naming of the men who are to run our town,and schools. All taxpayers should have a'Voice in who is naminated and elected to spend the people’s money .The tpwn is strongly Democratic ind we don’t think ^Republicans should be put on the ticket, but they should have a voice as to what Democrats they want to fill the offices. We asked a prominent citizen a few days ago to subscribe for The Record. He was very frank with us, telling the editor that he didn't like to read certain articles in the paper—that we intimated certain things about the 300 or 400, what "dyer that is We remarked . that The Record tried to be plain in haf if said, and that some people SnHTlike it,because its columns . were not filled. with card parties, dances, etc. We don’t blame the gentlepian for not taking our paper if he doesn’t want it, despite the fact that we trade with him every day in the year and have given him niuch, publicity and spent a igood . deal of time and money in doing so. : The Record believes in reciproc­ ity, but doesn’t believe in trying to force, the paper on those who do flpt want it. » Sheffield Hews.

TheyIiave brought it to the legislature in the hope that a law may be passed that* will solve It. The question is a controversial one and revolves around the difference of opinion as to whether the pelicans really deplete the waters of the bays and^ gulf of marketable fish to any serious extent. The National Association of Audu­ bon Societies has taken a hand in the dispute and is opposing any legislation that seeks to bring about the exter­ mination of the pelican, asserting that It is a harmless salt-water fowl. This organization cites the results of an investigation made by the fed­ eral food administration in 1919, which reported that there were in that year only 5,000 p.elicans on the coast of - Texas. The market fishermen ridicule this statement. 'They assert that 100,000 pelicans would be a low estimate of the nuniber that constantly feed upon fish in the waters of the gulf border­ ing Texas, and that nearly 5,000 of the fowls can be counted any time on Rellcan island In Pass Caavallo, to say nothing of the thousands of oth­ ers that make their home upon other Islands 'and the mainland. Average for Each Pelican. An experiment conducted by Col. William 6 . Sterret, when he was state game commissioner, showed that each pelican catches an average of 1,060 pounds of marketable, fish a year. If there are 100,000 pelicans, they con­ sume a total of 106,000,000 pounds of fish annually, If Sterrett’s estimate was correct, it is pointed out. That means approximately 25 pounds of fish per capita of the people of Texas. When the bill of Representative H. W. Wells of Edna, providing for the payment of a bounty on pelicans and pelican eggs, came before the house, it- provoked earnest and at times hu­ morous discussion. The measure was passed by the house and, it is expected, it will meet with little opposition in the senate. It provides that the state shall pay 25 cents for each pelican killed and 5 cents for each pelican egg destroyed. Each bounty claim shall be accompa­ nied by a piece of the upper part ^ f the pelican’s bill, not less than four Inches long, as proof that the fowl was killed. No proof of- the destruc­ tion of the eggs is provided for. ' $2 for Each Porpoise Killed. The same bill contains a provision for the payment of a bounty of $2 for each porpoise killed and that the proof shall be four Inches of the tail of each porpoise. It'is claimed that porpoises are also great enemies , of the market fishing industry, as they eat many fish. Men who have made a study of the habits of the pelican declare that they gorge themselves and their young with fish, that the pouch which they load \vith fish is of enormous size, and that the fowls are as much of a pest to the fishing Industry as the boll' weevil is to the cotton industry. The views of these men, however, are contrary to the findings of Dr. Hugh M. Smith, chief of the United States fish commission, who said that on a trip which he. made to the gulf coast for the purpose of investigating the reported depredations'of pelicans he collected 'pelicans all along the coast and the only fish he found In their pouches was the menhaden, a fish which is not used for human con­ sumption. In Florida, Jn 1918, he ex­ amined'3,428 specimens of the fish which were disgorged by pelicans and only 27 individual fish were of a kind ever sold In the markets for food.y* _ German Society Urges ‘‘Bath a Week” for AU Berlin--Reviving the slogan, “A bath a week for every German,” de­ vised by Prof. Oscar Lassar In the days when Berlin had more beautiful fountains than bathtubs, the Society for Free Public Baths has begun a campaign for more swimming pools and bathing beaches. Even today, the society reports, there are millions of persons In Ger­ many without modern home facilities for keeping clean. The well-rounded , program started a quarter of a cen­ tury ago by various states and cities to fill the need by establishing pub­ lic bath houses was halted by the war and Inflation period, and never has been fully ^revived. ‘ The' society Iis now. attempting to foster the body-cleanliness movement Six additional bath establishments are finished"or under construction In Berlin alone.

Winnipeg, Man.—Probably I there is no spectacle Which will stir the emo­ tional Impulses of a community to a greater extent .than a race, and when the.race Is for gold the tension.is heightened. That Is why this city still is talking of the sensational race to file ownership on a gold claim on new ground at Slate lake, north of here, between Mickey Gilleran, an independ­ ent prospector and William Todd, the representative of a wealthy mining company. Following the strike GlUeran and Todd started for Winnipeg to obtain papers necessary to enable them to stake additional ground close to their claims. The race to the city was even and, the papers in their possession, the men retraced their steps for the final dash to the rich dirt. • Both men got away from Winnipeg at the same time and on the same train, but Gilleran stopped off at a wayside station when the train stopped for a moment and telephoned ahead to have a dog team , in readi­ ness 'when the end. of steel was reached. At this place Todd took passage on a motorbus which oper­ ated for several miles, but GUleran drove his dog team all night and passed the bus unnoticed In the dark­ ness. When his dog team tired as a re­ sult of being pushed to the limit, Gll- leran halted 28 mUes from his desti­ nation and sent ,the team back. He covered the remaining distance on foot. . On arrival at the site of the claims Gilleran staked them in his name and started back to Winnipeg to record them. On the return trip ,he met TOdd and his party, who thought they had left him far behind. Disgusted at be­ ing bested ,in a race he thought he had won by OvWide margin, Todd con­ cealed his chagrin and congratulated the winner. AGE-OLD GARMENT,IS FOUND IN PEAT BED Finds Only 612 Are Luther Descendants BerUn. — Descendants of Martin Luther are by no means as numerous as it is generally believed. According to Rev. Otto Satorius of Dankmarshausen, in Thuringia, him­ self an offspring of Luther, who after long and careful research has brought Nobbes “Genealogical Luther Alma­ nac” up to date,' there are 612 living descendants of the reformer. None of them, however, carry their great progenitor’s name,,, Of- theologians, who rISrmerly- con­ stituted the majority of'the progeny, there are today only three, while thir­ ty-six are business men, twelve farm­ ers and nine engineers. The present-day descendants are scattered all over the world, one even being a resident of Japan and having a Japanese wife. All the children of this couple married Japanese. Woman Mayor Opposes Title of “Bull Cook” Seattle, Wash. — The time-honored nomenclature of the logging and lum­ ber camps of the Northwest appeared seriously threatened - when Mayor Bertha K. Landes had before her for signature an ordinance creating the job of “bull cook” at the Skagit hy­ dro-electric development project. “It seems,” declared the mayor, “that the council could have , adopted a title suggesting some degree of .dig­ nity, if not culture.” 1 She signed the ordinance, but de­ clared such a name and others in gen­ eral use should be made ,over. Bull cooks, chokermen, fallers, hookers, teeters, punks, buckers, and king rid­ ers are among the hard-boiled han­ dles attached to' timber workers and extant for year/ In the Northwest Berlin Post Office Now ' Advertises on Letters Berlin.—The German post office hasn’t adopted the system proposed and then abandoned in, England of putting private advertising matter on letters In the form of postmarks, hnt it is now following' the method long used In both England and America and doing a little advertising on its own account in this way, . r Letters canceled In the Berlin post offices now bear, beside the postmark, the familar legend prominently, dis­ played: “Don’t forget to address by street and house ndrnber,” Children Romp Under % Healthful VioIet-Rays * Paris.—An ultra-violet ray * sun that Is,never dOuded shines •* on an artificial sand, beach in a * basement of Paris.

Stockholm, Sweden.—A woolen man-' tie, worn In Sweden when the early pharaohs still reigned In Egypt, has had Its age approatmateiy determined by a curious combination of botanical and geological knowledge, through, the researches of Dr. Lennartr von Post of .the • Museum of National An­ tiquities here. The garment was found ■buried at a depth of several feet In a peat bed in the district of Vastergot- jand, carefully folded up and weighted down with three stones, but with noth­ ing about it to indicate how It got there. Its similarity to Bronze age gar­ ments from Denmark and elsewhere suggested. Its-antlquity. The fact that it had evidently not been burled, but had lain In its hiding place while {he moss grew over It to form about five feet of peat, was further evidence of great age./The acid water of the bog had preserved it from decay dur­ ing the centuries. Pollen Grains Key to Age. Dr. von Post found the key to Its age in the pollen grains that were thick in muddy particles clanging to the fabric. Most important amqng the species represented were oak, lin­ den and elm, with pine, birch and alder and hazelnut as the principal shrub. Exact counts showed that the proportion of the pollen f rom' the oak- linden-elm forest was larger than it would be in Swedish springtime- “pollen rain” of today, indicating the existence of a milder climate In the north at the time the mantle was laid away. , - . Such a mild climate is known from geological evidences to have followed shortly after the disappearance of the last patches of glacial ice In the south of Sweden, at about the time* when the new Stone age was giving way to the age of ,bronze In that country. It. was followed by a period of severer.' Climate, ushering in the Iron age.' This mild-climate pollen thus deter­ mines the former owner of the‘man­ tle, who so carefully folded it up and hid,it under three stones, in a'ditch, as a man of the early Bronze age. Dagger Holes Revealed. The careful workmanship of the weaver, who made the cloth out of a mixture of fine wool and the hair of game animals, probably deer, is de­ scribed by Emelle von Walterstorff, and'tlie possible romantic history of the garment, which has a number of dagger, holes jabbed through it, is hihtgd ;at by .Sune LundquistV. -Mr. Lunflqdist States also that the toga of the Romans was quite similar In shape to these elliptical Bronze- age mantles, though differing In size and manner of wearing. A shorter Roman cloak, the “trabea,” worn largely by priests and soldiers, was even more nearly similar. ■ Find Similar Fossils ’ in Separated Regions Providence, R. I.—The weird forests that grew in the widely separated swamps of what are now the states of Rhode Island and Missouri were strikingly alike in the plants that com­ posed them, according to Dr. Eda M. Round, writing in the Botanical Ga­ zette. Doctor Round has made a close com­ parison of fossil plant remains from the sandstones and shales of these rez gions, and states that over 50 per cent of the plant species of the tWoi locali­ ties Were identical. None of the .species that grew there those inany millions of years ago sur­ vives Into the present time,- but the nearest- relatives of some of them are' now represented by ferns,' club-mossea and scouring-rushes or horsetails. Two classes of plants, in some ways the most interesting of all, are now to­ tally extinct. These were a group oi trailing or vinelike plants related to the- feirns, apd another group with leaves like ferns but bearing true seeds, which are unknown among mod­ ern ferns.

Caldwell, of Monti- cellb, El., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed -cruel that so . many constipated men, women, children, and particularly old folks, had to. be kept constantly “stirred up” and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and-nasty oils. -. While he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all headaches, biliousness, indigestion and stomach misery, 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 for those chronically constipated. iDr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not only Causes a gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, It never gripes, sick­ ens, or upsets the system.

And what assurance had he that even lf.ho again succeeded In enterlng the house, a. very remote possibility, he could ac­ complish anything against Shaw apd hts companions? Oh, If only he had waited and brought Rodney with him! Together, he felt, the two of them could have met and overcome a reji" ment of men like Shaw and his sec­ retary. A wild impulse came to him to take Burke with him In ills second effort, hut an appraising look at that seedy tndlvldual checked it. He was con- By ELIZABETH JORDAN ((D by Tbe C entuir Company.)

Even against the blond secretary he felt no personal rancor. The youth with the pursuing eyes and- the chloroform was merely a wretched pawn I, In Shaw’s game. ; In Shaw’s game I The phrase stuck, burning Into his consciousness like the vitriol he believed tfce beast would use If he dared. What was Shaw’s „ ... „ „ , ,. ... a v. game? m y was he so smugly sure ofvlnced that Burke conld neither fight Tt, And1Why, oh, why, why, was Doris nor keep his mouth shut Owing to his promise to Doris, police help, of course, was out of the question. No, he must go back alone. But this time there would be no seml-lgnomlnlous departure, He would either bring Doris away, or he would remain there with her. And If Shaw wanted trouble, he’d get it and It would be the real thing. That afternoon, on his first visit to The Cedars, his new Instinct of cau­ tion had made him leave Jiehind him the little revolver he had brought He knew his own hot temperament too well to risk carrying It, and he had an' arrogant faith In his own physical strength which, as a rule, had been Justified. Now, however, he retrieved the weapon, and With a sudden tight­ ening of the Hps dropped It Into his overcoat pocket When he was dressed he went out to look over his car. Burke, who was evidently fascinated by the slender racer, rose from an admiring Inspec­ tion of the engine as its owner ap­ proached. “She’s ready any minute now,” he reported. “She’s had gas, oil and air, and I’ve put on the chains. Thought you’d want ’em, In this storm." Laurie nodded and glanced out at the window. The storm had devel­ oped Into a blizzard. His optimism, somewhat numbed In the past hour, reasserted Itself to suggest that na­ ture was helping him to meet the odds against him In the old house down the road. He glanced at his watch. It was not yet quite five, but certainly there was darkness enough for his purpose. He could safely take the car Into the side wood road near The Cedars, and leave it there among the trees until he needed It Ho hand­ ed Burke his. final offering, the size Hf which wholly dispelled that philos­ opher's pessimistic forebodings. Jump­ ing into his car, he backed it out Into the storinv “Hey, ' there I what about these rto’es?” demanded Burke, indicating with a thumb the abandoned heap of garments In the office. “Eat ’em,”- briefly advised the .occu­ pant of the disappearing car. Burke shook his head. Oarage men are used to1 beetle human types and strange happenings, but this particular type and incident were new to Burke. He was also Interested In the discovery that the young fella wasn’t going to New York, now that his joke was played. He was going straight up the road, In the wrong direction, and driving like the devil. Well, anyway, Burke had made a tidy bit on that Joke, whatever it was. Gazing affec­ tionately at the latest, crisp bill, he thought of his wife, and the seventh, and nobly decided ' to forgive them both. Lauple, his hot head cooled by the storm that beat against him, raced through the gathering darkness. He had the road to himself. In weather like this no one was abroad who could stay at borne. He turned off Into the country road, already deep In snow­ drifts, add swept on through the lit­ tle wood whose leafless birches now loedced unfamiliar, even, spectral, ■ In the increasing gloom. Save for the soft purr of his engine, his progress, made no sound, fie drove as far as he dared, then stopped the car off the road, In a clear space among the .trees, and continued his way on foot. He htfist leave the car there, and take the chance of having It discovered. In the storm and darkness that chance seemed very rrimote. He plunged on toward the house, knee-deep, now, In the drifts that swept acrosB the narrow road. Soon the building was visible In Its somber setting, and as he stared at Its dim outlines his heart leaped; In the right- hand corner, on the second floor,; a Ught showed, faintly through drawn shades. The sight filled him with an overwhelming relief. Until he saw It, he had not realized how great his in­ ner panic had been. He stopped, drew a deep breath, and stood staring up at itThe rest of the house looked black and uninhabited, bnt somewhere with­ in It he was sure, Shaw and the blond secretary watched and waited. ,To the Italians he gave no thought He was convinced that neither of them cared to come alone to dose, quarters with Mm ; and this conviction was so strong that'tiie prompt retreat of the fellow witb the rope had not surprised him, dther at the moment or-in retrospect though both men had fought well un-. tr t Shaw’s eyes. If the Italians were a g a in on guard In the grounds,. it ..would be his Job to . choke them off before they could warn Shaw of his presence. Wnmlng Shaw, he hoped, was about all they were good for. His plan, fully made, was very slm- Mo. He had no Intention of risking mother encounter If It could be avold- ld . B is purpose was te get Doris out * that hoosfe hack to New York; and seemingly numb to Its danger, yet anxious for his help? For the first time he gave definite shape to a re­ flection that for honrs had been try­ ing to catch his attention, and from which he had restively turned. It was this: When those four men, headed -by Shaw, had entered that upper room, Doris had not been surprised. She had expected them. Moreover, she had not been really afraid. Instead; she had worn a look of flaming anger and of sudden resolution. She had stepped forward as if to speak. Her very lips had been parted for speech. Then, Shaw had looked at her, and slowly she had turned away and stood staring out of the window, her back to the room and Its tableau. In short, With one glance of his veiled, protrud­ ing eyes, Shaw had conquered her, and Laurie himself had seen, what no one could have made him belieje, her instantaneous and complete submis­ sion. It was this revelation which had added the smoke barrage of doubt to the situation, clouding his faculties and temporarily stifling his faith. In the face of this, how could he still trust? Yet he had promised to trust, to believe, “whatever happened.” Those had been his own words, and she had wept and told him he was “wonderful” I ' The deep breath he had drawn end­ ed In a sigh. He was fighting more than one storm, and In this Instant he felt an Indescribable weariness of soul and body. But not for a second did he hesitate In the course he had de­ cided on. Later, when Doris was safe, perhaps things would clear up. For the moment there was one thing, and one alone, to be doffe, The trees around the house made the approach under their cover a fair­ ly easy one. However, he moved .slowly, missing no precaution. He hardly believed the zeal of the Ital­ ians would keep them out In the storm, but they might have rigged up some sort of shelter, or, more proba­ bly, they might be doing sentry work at some of those'dark. windows. Clinging close to the trees, he skirt­ ed the house, then approached it from the rear, and slipped along the side of the building, hugging the wall. As he noiselessly moved he listened, but no sound came from inside. When lie reached the front right wing he stopped, and, looking up, verified his swift impressions of the afternoon. A wide veranda swung around the front and side of this wing, supported by substantial pillars, up any one of which he knew he could climb like a cat The roof of the veranda opened on the low French front windows'of the upstairs sitting-room. Therewas no question that within a few mo­ ments he himself could enter that sit­ ting-room. The real question, and again he carefully considered It, was how, once In the room, be could get the girl out of It She could not climb railings and slide down pillars. There was a win­ dow on the roar end of the wing, above what plainly served-in summer­ time as a veranda dining-room. This end of the veranda was glassed in, and over It a trellis afforded a sup­ port for frozen vines that now shiv­ ered In the storm. If he could get Doris out at that window, he might be able to get her down to the ground with the help of the trellis. But from what room did the window open, and how much of the upper hall would they have to traverse before reaching It? Not much,, he fancied. Again he looked around, and' lis­ tened. There was no sound or mo­ tion, save those caused by the storm. The next Instant he was climbing the pillar toward the dimly lighted win­ dow. The ascent was not'so easy as he had pictured It. To his chagrin, he made several unsuccessful efforts before he finally drew himself over the top of the veranda roof, and, lying flat In the snow, slowly recovered the breath exhausted by his efforts. Lying thus, and stretching out an arm, he could almost touch the near­ est window with his fingers, almost, but not quite. Still lying flat, he dragged himself a yard farther. His' head was now In line with the win­ dow, but the close-drawn shade shut out all but the suggestion of the Inner light. He hesitated a moment, then,' very cautiously, tapped on the frosty pane. , There was no response. He tapped again, and then a third time, twice In succession and more compelUngly. This time he thought he heard a move­ ment .,In the room, but he was not sure. He waited a moment, then softly signaled again. There was no ques­ tion now about the movement In the room. He heard it distinctly,.heard it approach the window, heard It cease, then saw the curtain slowly drawn. The face of Doris looked out, at first vaguely, as If she had fancied the noise some manifestation of the storm. But in the next instant she glanced (!own, saw him, and obviously checked an exclamation. In another moment she had opened the window, and with­ out straightening,up he had slipped across the oill. Neither spoke. Laurie was looking about the roOm, reassuringly empty, save for those two. He closed the window, drew the shade, and became conscious that she held his hand and was drawing him urgently toward the fire. At the same time she answered his unasked question. ' ■ "They’re all down In the kitchen, I tliink. Listen I” She opened the door leading to the hall, and, going out, leaned over the stair-rall. “Yes, they’re still there,” she re­ ported when she came back. “All but one of the Italians. They’re qating now, and after that I think they’re planning to lfeave." “Where’s the hag?" “Waitipg on.them." She spoke (letachedly, almost dully. As In the morning, she was not sur­ prised; but tonight there was in her manner a suggestion of repressed ex­ citement which it. had not held before. “Have you a heavy coat?” he asked her. \ ' “Yes.” 1 “Get it and put It on, quick. Don’t waste any time.” He indicated the buckled house-shoes she still wore. “And put on some real shoes, if you have them.” Without replying, she disappeared. He followed her into the bedroom In which, during the hours of his pres­ ence that afternoon, the hag had found uneasy asylum. He indicated a door. “Where does that lead?” “Into a bathroom.” ‘There’s a back window' over the verilnda. AYhat room does that mean?" ■.»X»X»X»X»X»X»X»X»X»X»X»X»X*X»X»X«»XOX«>X<»Z»IfrX»X»X»X»X$ Peace and Promise in Nature’s Tqmple It was a swamp of the bind I love, miles upon miles of it, seldom marked by the footprints of men; a primitive swamp, hoary with age, where life had grown upon life through centuries of time; fragrant with a breath of mys­ tery, filled with a vast contentment, a home ffir the creatures of the wild.

"A bedroom off the nau.~ “Good I” She followed his thought “But I don’t think wo _ccn risk that One of the Italians is patrolling the hall. That’s why they haven't locked the door. I caught a glimpse of him just now, coming toward the foot of the stairs.” He stared at hpr' frownlngly, then, walking to the’bed,-stripped It with an arm-swlng and seized the sheets.. ‘Then It's simply a qudfetlon of low­ ering you from the front,” he cried, curtly.. ‘TH lower you* as far as I can, and we’ll have to risk a drop of a few feet Snow’s safe.” , As he spoke, he was hurriedly tear­ ing and roping the sheets. “Used to do this at school when I was a kid,” he ,explained. “Quite like old times. Now get on the coat 'and shoes, please.” She needed the reminder. She was staring at this visitor, who had the face of- thq man she knew and the voice and manner of a stranger. All trace of young Devon’s debonair In­ difference was gone. He had the cold eyes and set jaw of a determined man, busy at some task which would as­ suredly be done, but his air of detach­ ment equaled her own. When she w ob ready, and still with his new air of businesslike concen­ tration on the Job In hand, he ad­ justed the linen ropes, and after a preliminary survey of the grounds, led her through the window and out on the veranda roof. Here he briefly told her what to do, suiting action to words with entire efficiency, and as­ suming her unquestioning obedience as a matter of course. The lowering was not the simple ex­ ercise he had expected, any more than the upward climb had been. Light as she was, It was clear that her unsup­ ported weight would be a heavy drag upon a body resting Insecurely on a slippery roof with nothing more sub­ stantial than snow and ice to cling to. But eventually she was down, a little shaken but unhurt, and he was beside. her. “Now, let’s see how fast you can run,” he suggested; and for the first time his whispered voice held a ring of youth she knew. “Shaw’s watch­ ers may suddenly begin to watch, or even to see something.” She responded to his changed tone with an uncontrollable gasp of relief, which he attributed to excitement. “Don’t worry. All right now, ,I think,” he said, with an Immediate return to curtness. \ It steadied her as.no other attitude on his part could have done. "Can you drive ja Pierce Arrow?" be asked, as they plunged ahead through the snowdrifts. “Yes." ‘That’s fine. That’s great. I was afraid you couldn’t ” This was Laurie again. He went on urgently. “If we’re stopped or separated, do exactly as I say. Don’t lose an Instant. Rush to my car. It’s over there; among the trees. See?—over there at the right It’s turned toward the road.” He In­ dicated the spot “Get In, go to the left at the first turn, drive full speed to a garage a quarter of a mile down the main road. No matter what hap­ pens, don’t stop till you reach It.. Go Into the'garage, and wait half an hour for me. .If Tm not there then, drive on to New York and go to this ad­ dress.” He gave her a penciled slip he had prepared. “Mrs. Ordway Is a good friend of mine. She’ll take you In and look afjer you. WlU you do that?” "Yes.” The word was so low that he had to hend hfe head to catch it His voice softened-still more. “Don’t worry. It will be all right. Only, some way, I can’t believe that Shaw is letting us off as easily as this." She stumbled, but he caught her. For a moment he supported her, and In that moment, under the■ sense of her nearness and dearness and help­ lessness, the hardness of the past hour disappeared. He did not under­ stand'her. perhaps he would never understand her. But whatever she was, she was-all right. Half leading! half carrying her, he got her to the car and Into it He had actually raised one, foot to follow her when something stirred In the shad­ ows near them, and the familiar, squat figure of Shaw stepped forth. Though In his sudden appearance he had followed the dramatic Instinct that seemed so strong In him, he had wholly lost the effect of unleashed fury he had worn In. the afternoon. He was even smiling with an affec­ tation of good-humored tolerance. He had the air of a man who,, with the game In bis hands, can afford to be patient and affable. / “Oh, come now,” he said easily, ■■“don’t leave us qt}lte so soon l Since you’ve come hack for another visit, we’ve decided to keep you a while. You know, I warned you of that” . : Lhurie made a sign to Doris, which she Instantly obeyed. Even before the Indolent voice had finished speaking, she was at the wheel and the car had started, Shaw, springing forward with goggling eyes and dropped Jaw, found hts way blocked by a man as new to him asjhe'had been to Doris, a Laurence Devon Who all ta an Instant had taken on tfie blask rage he him self had dropped. In the hands, ot this stranger was a revolver which neatly covered ShawAs plump chest Before this apparition, Shaw baeM away precipitately. ■ i i o m m n o n s H i CHILDREN CRY FOR “ CASTORIA” Especially Prepared for Infanta and Children of AU Ages Mother!

Lehzen is fighting to retain custody of seven children, three of whom were found by proba­ tion officers chained, (tied and strapped in Mrs. Lenzen’s ranch house at Patterson, near here. “I tied them up because it was the only way I could keep track of them,” she said. The probation officers report­ ed they found an eleven-year-dld girl strapped tcoa bed, a three- year-old boy with his' hands strapped' behind his. back, and another l^hild tied to a chair in a ,sitting position, unable to 'move. Four other children, they said, showed signs of cruel­ ty and malnutrition. One of the children is an adopted daughter of Mrs. Len­ zen’s and the others- are her grandchildren. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ALIMONY, MARTYR 3 YEARS IN JAIL R efuses to C ontribute to H is Form er W ifefS Support. Willows, Calif.—Samuel W. Reid, California’s “alimony martyr," who is serving a life sentence In jail rather than pay alimony to his divorced wife, has started the third year of his con­ finement Reid attracted nation-wide attention In 1925 when he declared he would go to jail before he would obey the in­ junction of Superior Judge C. F. Pur- kitt of Glenn county to pay alimony toward the support of his former wife, who,-he Insists, has now remarried her first husband. “It isn’t fair,” he declared. “If be wants her he can support her. I’ll not pay a cent toward her support if I lie in Jail until I die.” Reid let his hair and beard grow long as a mark of resentment at the court’s action. After sixteen months of imprisonment he was taken from the Jail for a sanity test A commis­ sion of alienists pronounced him per­ fectly sane. At that time he permitted his hair to be cut and his beard to be shaved. After the examination, Judge Pur- Mtt again ordered him to jail and Reid began to let his hair and beard grow again. ‘I am a victim' of Injustice'and per­ sonal spite,” said Reid. “I am perfect­ ly willing to pay for the support of our three-year-old child if she is put In the proper kind of a home. But no- money for my ex-wife. Maybe my con­ duct seems peculiar, but It’s the course I have chosen, and the course I pro­ pose to stick to.” Sheriff Roy . Heard says the-‘‘mar­ tyr’’ is a model prisoner. Reid is a veteran of the World war, serving for eight months in Frhnce with the A E. F. and receiving an honorable dis­ charge In San Francisco. Dog Bcihs Suicide Pact, Saves Lives of Owners Vienna.—Their dog’s antipathy to suicide, or at least to gas as a way of committing ' suicide, was responsible for the rescue alive of a Viennese ac­ countant and his wife who attempted to asphyxiate themselves. The accountant and his wife, discour­ aged by their troubles, closed the win­ dows and doors of their apartment, opened all of the, gas jets, and lay down on the bed to die in each other’s arms. / Ry accident, or maybe because they Wished that their dog should accom­ pany them into the Beyond, they had shut their dog up In the house with them. The dog had different views. As soon as the gas became unpleasant he sought fresh air by jumping through the glass window pane. Running to the porter the dog barked until the latter investigated. The dog’s'master and mistress were resuscitated and now all three are again trying to make the best of life. Boy Lost in Aastreiia Chewed by Wild Camels Sydney, N. S. W,—Wandering away from a homestead on a cattle station In central Australia a ten-year-old boy, Harold Moran, was chased'by a mob' of Wild camels, herds of which have bred and now roam- about In these dry regions since they were dis­ placed Afrom their transport uses by motor trucks. Moran managed to es­ cape the camels by 'diving under a fence. After three days he was found by worried searchers.

AUTOMATIC CAR PHYSICIAN IN OPERATION I I v None of the Ills that motors are heir to can escape this new $12,000 auto­ mobile trouble shooter, established in Chicago for the benefit of the motor­ ing public- The testing laboratory is equipped with every modem device to diagnose motor troubles and is employed exclusively for that purpose.- An hour’s test under the delicate instruments suffices in sounding out every Pji rt on the modern car and discovering whether or not it is functioning at its proper standard of efficiency. Particularly Beneficial to Golifer in Affording Fast Transportation. . It would be interesting to delve into statistics and determine to just what extent the automobile has aided the development of any line of sport, or all lines.. It is certainly true that sport flourished, but not In all its glory, before the advent of the horse­ less carriage. At any rate, it has cer­ tainly, increased its scope since it was possible for Mr. Common People to own an automobile. Big Aid to Golf. ' "The motor car has greatly aided one of the oldest games known,” says Robert S. Breyer of California, “and: that Is the royal and ancient pastime of golf. Great numbers of people throughout Europe; and especially .in. England and Scotland, swarmed the links playing golf, but the automobile has made, it possible for thousands of persons In "this country to indulge In- the sport. An increase is also no­ ticeable in the old country. “The -minutes of today’s everyday business man are worth real money to him. And he is, one of the greatest devotees of the sport in the country. The only reason for that is the auto­ mobile, quick efficient transportation between his home, the links and his office'. There are very few courses in the entire country that are not acces­ sible to the automobile,' and courses to which there Is no other transportation Savei walking. Other Sports Benefited. “Golf, however; is not the. only sport that has been benefited by the motor car. Name any sport, and it will owe much of its recent develop­ ment to the automobile.'' It is just a matter of a few moments to convince, yourself of this. Pass the baseball parks in the morning, visit the beaches, the tennis courts, in fact any place where sport is indulged in, and note the'automobiles there. “The automobile itself, the great­ est aid developed in modern business, offers a variety of sport that no one other thing could. Nothing is more beneficial than a spin into the ffesh, invigorating air, and physicians every­ where recommend motoring as a great aid to a healthy physical and mental condition. Thousands annually join the ranks of those who are enjoying the benefits of the motor car in all walks of life.” . ; Scheme Devised to End PerilofMotopFumes A recent experiment in the city laboratories of Paris -is said to havb demonstrated the practicability of a catalyzer designed to consume the car-' bon-monoxide gas produced by'iriutor cars—which Prof. YandbIl Henderson of Yale and others have asserted wad a serious menace'to public health in crowded cities. The device consists- of an exhaust pipe.containing certainxgheffiichls pos­ sessing catalyzing properties ‘which reduce the combustion temperature of the noxious gas. Byv the passage of a current of air through the tubes the fumes are consumed before they can pass out into the street. \ M.: Kohn ’Abrest, director of the laboratories, says that \ the average motou car In Paris gives off one-half cubic meter of 'carboii-moaoxide for each' half gallon of gasoline burned and that a cubic meter of such gas renderk six cubic meters of air unfit to.*breathe. In the country the/half cubic meter of gas Is scattered along half a dozen miles and consequently Is harmless, he says, while in . Paris the .automobiles move more' slowly and often fill the air, of narrow- streets With Inlurlous nnantIHea o f f n m « - :. .'.V.' ...

I. The Meaning of the Transfigura­ tion (n Peter 1:1618). These verses are an inspired inter­ pretation by one who was present and knew all that transpired./ The hope of the disciples was crushed. When Christ announced His . death which was to take place on the cross, they were unafile to see how victory could issue from death. Jesus took with Hiin, Peter, James and John, and they went into the mountain by themselves. Before going into the* mountain He declared that there were some stand­ ing in His presence who would not taste of death till they had seen the kingdom of God come with power. Two men from7 the upper world were sent to converse with Jesus aljout His approaching death at Jeru­ salem—the very thing about which the disciples refused to talk. Then, too, God’s own voice was heard in words of approval of Christ’s course, direct­ ing them to hear the Master. II. Jesus' Christ ,Glorified on the Mountain (v. 2, 3). ^ He took the disciples “by them-, selves”-, and was ‘‘transfigured, before them.” This’ shows that the purpose of the transfiguration terminated upon the' disciples and not on Christ. Christ’s rebuke of Peter for his un­ willingness to hear concerning His death apparently for a time estranged the disciples from Him. His appear­ ance' on the (fountain typifies His vis­ ible appearance on the Mount of Olives (Zech. 14:4, ,9). III. Peter, James and John Reprer sent Israel'dn the Flesh In Connection With the Kingdom (v. 2). Christ is peculiarly the BJng of Israel. According to Ezekiel 37:21-27, the Israelites are to be th6 central, people In the kingdom... This people shall be gathered from among the na­ tions and united as one In that king­ dom, in their own country. IV. Moses and Elijah. Appeared’ In Glory With Jesus (vv. 4-13). These men in the glorified state are typical of the saints in glory. Moses who was once denied an entrance into Palestine appears now in glory repre­ senting tiie redeemed of the Lord who shall* pass .through death into the kingdom. Elijah represents the re­ deemed who shall pass into the king­ dom- through translation. Some shall be living upon the earth when the Lord shall come and tbejj without dying shall be changfed and thus pass into the kingdom (I Cor. 15:50-53; I Thess. 4:14-18).' • 1. Peter’s proposal (w. 5, 6). Se definitely was the method of the' kingdom unfolded before Peter that he proposed to erect- tabernacles, for Christ, Moses and Elijah. It is true that the unveiling of the majestic per­ son of Christ and the panoramic dis­ play of the kingdom somewhat discon­ certed Peter, yet he grasped its cen-' tral meaning and proposed to cele­ brate ^the advent of the kingdom which had been prefigured In a tangible way. 2. The divihe voice out of the cloud (w . 7, 8).. ' God declared Jesus to "he His -Be­ loved Son in whom He\wasl/ Well pleased, if one would know what, is pleasing to God, let him study Jesus Christ who perfectly did His Father’s win. . : . 3. Jesus’ charge (w, 9-13). > ' ’• He charged them that they should tell no man- concerning- the things which .they had seen until He had risen from the dead. . V; A Demonstration of the Purpose of the Establishment of the Kingdom (w. 14-29). -' -When they descended from the mountain of transfiguration they Wit­ nessed a great multitude in a state of perplexity, Th? immediate cause'of this ;state was the grievous condition of a young man possessed with a de­ mon (v. 18). This young man’s state is representative of the nations who are oppressed by the devil. Just as this young, man was grievously op­ pressed, causing him ttf cast himself into the: fire and into the, waters; so Ihe nations today in their1 great per­ plexity aye doing the things which will result in thelwoWn destruction.

As if that were any Question these days!—E x.. “Some Figures From The County Records.” They tell us that this is an "age of electricity,” but it is au "age of inquiry,” too. People all over the world are making inquiries about various questions. We have become a “truth searching people.” Nothing appeals to us mere thau the plain old-fashioned truth;- We have a great desire to inquire and find the truth. The world fo^aV. needs the truth told to it. If we are not fed on the truth >ve will perish. The Bible says,' “Study to show thyself approved.” ,We say, "Inquire and find out the truth for ourselves.” We ueed to study, p . . Now, when we inquire, we often find something that we cannot understand; Recently I read an article that said something about the State of North Carolina paying $1200 of the salary of- the Superintend­ ent of. schools in Davie county. As allofeRou know, this officer is a county office and we have always thought that we. were paying him his $2400 salary. We never knew before that the state paid him $1200, too. Sincew ereadaboutthe.Statecom ing in with , a nice purse of 200, we have come across the following figures which were found on record in the court house in the city of Mccksville. We wish that you, too, could see them, hence we give them as follows: OBJFCTS OF EXPENDITURE.'-’ Salary of Rural Teachers and Supervisors for six months Salary County Superintendent Salary of city teachers for six months Salary of City Superintendent, two-thirds annual. . safary (Mocksville, N. C-i) - . Per Diein of County Board of Education ' • Summer Schools for Teachers Superintendent of Public Welfare The total of this is ' $71,267.28 Here we find on record where’the state puts ,in its purse containing $4,993 63 as our part out of the Slate Equalizingl fund. We found no where on record where $1200 had been set aside as a’ partial payment of the Superintendent’s salary as a countv official. We did find where the full $4,993.63 had been substracted fronTthe $71,267.28 which was the total of the "Object of Expenditure,” thereby leaving $66,273 65. Where iii the world does that $12.00 come'in. There seems to be no mention of it on record so fai we could find. If its on record, where is it? ' But liold on! The above, expense is hot all of our expense ing the schools. We found a few other figures on record that payers of Davffe county should see. We give them as follows. / ’■ "a d m in is t r a t iv e e x p e n s e ’’ Traveling expense of County Superintedent of Schools Traveling expense of County Board of Education Clerical I ' OfficeExpense (State, fuel etc) ( Salary or Commission of County Treasurer Other Administrative (audit) Attorney We find this total to be #2,150 9° We do not yet see how they got $i2ooout of the "equalizing fund” and applied.it on the Supenntedents salaryi however; we do tfilnk- that the Superintendent did get his proportional part of it. This money came here to be used in the "salary fund” and -the Superintendent would therefore draw his salary out of the salary fund of the county after the state money had been put in the treasure with our county money. Am I not correct? If five men pour five bushels of red apples into a box and mix them well, how can they tell them apart when they begin to take them out to be divided equally? There is no way. When these two funds are.put together and made into one salary fund for Davie county, how in the world can one teacher know that every dollar of her salary was a part of the State Equalizing Fund? If it is all put In together how does our Superintendent of schools know that one-half of his salary came but of the State Equalizing Fund? It seems to be a ’ ‘ happen so’ ’ If it does. WHY ARE-WE GETTING $4,993.63 From all reports, there is a reason why we are not getting more than $4,993 63 out of the State Equalizing Fund. It seems that other coun­ ties are getting far more thau we are. One man comes along and lays the blame on one man over yonder, then here that man comes and deT nies all of that and puts the blame on another. So they all say the other.fellow is the real cause of Davie county getting such a thin slice of the Equalizing Fund. Now we are beginning to get anxious to find the man who is the real cause. The tax payers of Davie county, I am sure^vill be willjug to offer a liberal reward for his' capture. It is a' plain fact that there is a reason why we are gelting so little. - Will you please tel-l-us why? We are anxious to know. , - , \ NO USE OF SO MUCH GAMES When we pick up our Dailies,” we see where some poor mother’s son or daughter, has not lost one or two days. -One you say, say, ‘‘How did he or she lose any days? "W as his or her teacher sick?” No! The teacher was in unusual health, but sue let them go away off and play ball. There is too much.time speut in games during the school hours W e poor fanners can not stand such much louger. No use to tax us to death and then allow the teachers to spend so much time taking "atheletic stuff.” Some games will do, but too much hurts the schools. Bovs and girls need to learii something besides “ atheletic blow-outs.” Just take the athletic part away from some schools, and you have taken the thing that the boys study most abouL How many days are spent during one year playing "visiting teams?” , ^ Do we’need eight-months of school? What is the use for us- to tack on another two months of.school to our six mouths we already have? If the children will attend the .,six months, they can do very well. The trouble is, so many girls and boys are not in school that should be. T h e r e is no use to want more when we are not using what we have wisely. The thing we need to do is to improve the present six months school You say how can we improve it. Well; there are many, things to be considered. First, we m ust put "live wire” people ni charge of the school management from the highest to the lowest office. Don t try tbsimprove it by putting in a committee that is unfit for the P(ace. A school committee is on^set of men who should be honest, jipngbt citizens. Then don’t try to improve our present schools with pealed heals ’’ Oh how we need long white liar to .be seen in our school rooms Children cannot teach children-. Some people go through col- I.* but the college did not go through them, Older teachers are need ed in our schools. Then, too, we need some men, with a little age on' them, to stand behind the teachers desk. Children just will not obey these Voting "chap like”'teachers.. , ,, . SCHOOL START SOME ON WRONG ROAD Never before iuthe liistoryof America , has Such a “life-taking " hit o u r young school bovs and girls. The daily papers apers,„ Are ,-Not Appreciated. (The Greenville Star) If any one thing is calculated to discourage the small town editor in his labors is to discqyer that his efforts are not appreciated by citi­ zens of the community.. To stand ■at the postoffice an hour or so after the last edition of his paper has been mailed, watch.socne of his pat­ rons take bis copy of the local pa­ per'out and without giving it so much as "the once over” Ieis it fly into the waste basket. He takes it for:granted Uiats he knows every­ thing to be found in the "little rag” but later in the day'is reminded by a friend that -he has been promin ently mentioned in connection with- some local movement and’ he pro­ ceeds to make a hasty search to find a copy of the said, paper—calls up the office and makes special re­ quest that a copy be sent him by- special carriers at -'once. Human nature is indeed strange. This man had no time to. devote to things concerning the town and his neighbor, possibly,. but when it was made clear that H E had. been spoken of things were different, if the article in question happened to meet his approval, all right. FIe let it pass without letting the pu­ blisher know that he appreciated it. On the other hand if the 1 aforesaid article did not suit lie proceeds to Ifet the editor know about it in no uncertain terms. Few towns ap­ preciate the full worth of the,, local newspaper. No other enterprise upimjhfevto earth re­ ceives s’o little for it services. The ordinary man does not consider the local newspaper worth any­ thing to the tpwu and community until it.suits his purpose to use Tl It fits im-tnighty nice and he doesn’t hesitate to take advantage of it. Must Be Wet. We do not feel that the editor' should .be censured for not attend-1 ing the baseball game. We don’t consider that any game that may be played at Sevierville is worth to the editor, what it costs him and should the editor go to Knoxville ta-ly in the morning to attend a game at 4 D m„ when the hour would arrive. Five-Weeks old Baby \ Walks Unaided. Harmon Loeb, a six-weeks old. son of Dr. and Mrs. Carl Loeb, of Chicago has started _to Walking. A day or so ago, unaided he~walked across the room -and unwittingly established himself as a miracle of modern science. .... . •” He is believed by physicians to be the rfirst baby in this country ever able to walk at such an ,early age The usual’ period • at ..which infant begin to walk is' seldom be­ fore one year.- ~. V* . Little Harmon performed his feat before an audience of several news­ papermen and his proud father.j Bandly balancing himself on his two pink feet , he toddled uncon­ cernedly across the room entirely oblivious that he probabiy was set­ ting a national or world record. . The father, Who is a physician, attributes his son’s walking ability to a sturday physique built up by constant exercise and special light treatments. For the "Jight treatments. Dr. Loeb has designed his own sunray machine. We bathe Harmon every day for 10 or 15 minutes in this artificial sunlight,” explained Dr. Loeb. “ The bady is given a- series of exercise three times a day de­ signed to strengtheu the muscles. “ Under this regime of traiping Harmon -tipsI the scale a t . nine pounds, "Before Harinon was born,” added Dr. Loeb "his mother was given the sam’e sunlight treatments to which the baby is being subject; ed, so that all Harmon is a real sunlight baby,” A Dutch astronomer announced the discovery of 180 new stars. Thousands of pedestrains have writ­ ten the scientist that he ain’t seen nothihg yet.

'________ T / Only one week until the city election. Make up your minds , who you want t& .serve on the boards and the man you want for . mayor; , There are a number of unsightly spots around " the public square, ' front, side and rear views. These eyesores should be removed. Hund­ reds of tourists pass through our town daily and it is very easy to imagine what they think about a town that will let such things exist. At least five people were killed and many more injured in automo bile wrecks within fifty miles of Davie county during the past ten days. Somethingshould be done to cut down the number of auto ac­ cidents. Life is too precious to be, sniffed out by a Ford or even Packard. Too. many crazy^ folks are driving cars .instead of mak- ifig the world safe for Democracy . we better make it safe for the auto drivers and the fellow who. travels on foot. Theltecord doesn’t believe that route 75 should be built the long-- est way around, making thousands of people travel from five to ten ,miles further from MocksviIle to Statesville. We want this road buiit.aud rather than delay the matter and possibly lose the road altogether, we are willing to see it built any way the highway com­ mission sees fit. , If thisroad locat­ ion brings on a bunch of injunctions and^rotests. we are liable to wake up and find that Davie hasn’t but one piece of hard-surface road—and that leading from Mocksvilleto Winston-Salem,- the home of. our highway commissioner. We don’t know whether The Lexington Dispatch is satisfied with the decision banded down at Mocks ville last Wednesday by Chairman Frank Page of the State Highway Commission and Highway Commis . sioners. J. Sprunt Hill and A. M. Ifcistler. The Dispatch has been devoting much good editorial space -.fp the Davie county board of..: com- inissiouers about delaying the bridge connecting Davie and Da­ vidson.

These, figures were taken from _ county records and no one can deny but what they tell the truth. , The ' taxpayers-'of Davie county are interested in the way their money ■ is spent, and the majority of them seem- to think that this office is costing too much money. The voters should have something' to say in regard to who fills tfii; pub- lic ofiices and the salaries they" are to receive. The columns of The Record are open to anyone who vyants do discuss this matter. ’ A^Wdj" told us the other day that-she wanted an article- printed in The Record because -nearly everybody m her section of "the county took our paper, and that - no -other paper could reach the people. Another lady asked us < •••• why anybody would waut to take* . , The Record so long as they could get a Democratic paper. • -We don’t know why theydo, but they sure­ ly must or the first lady -wouldn’t have told up what she did-.

We appreciate the patronage given us by all those who take our paper. Settle Bridge Question. About ioo Davidson cpunty citi­ zens met at the Mccksyille court house Wednesday at noon, togeth­ er with many Davie county citizens, to present their claims as to the lo­ cation of the new concrete bridge that is to link Davie apd Davidson counties. The-Surveys were made early last year, and after the mat­ ter had lain dormant' for some ,time some of the Yadkin College and Advance citizens decided that Fulton Ferry site was the way the new road should go. The survey showed that the bridge coHld be built at Oak’s Ferry fqr approxi­ mately $84,000 less than at the Fulton Ferry site,' arid that this route ,was the most direct to Lex­ ington, saving one mile [and a large amount of cash. The Davie coun­ ty road commissioner^ protested the building of the bridge at the Oak’s Ferry site, and !the .matter has been held up for sofne time, A hearing was set for Wednesday and Frank Page, Chairman !of the State Highway Commission,; together with Highway Commissionres J. S. Hill, of Durham and A. ;M. Kestler, of Morgariton, were prejsent to hear the protests and. also [ those- who were in favor of building the road according to recommendation of the highway engineers ,who made the surveys over both- routes. The op- positiomto the Oak’s FerrY roalI had as their spokesman [H od. A. T - Grant Jr., of this city arid Messrs. P- V. Critcher and Z. Il 'Walser, of Lexington/ while Attorney Jacob Stewart, of . this ci y,i Attorneys E. E. Roper and W. Ff Brinkley, of Lexington, were for; the Oak’s Ferry site. A number 'of the citi­ zens of the county spoke in favor of the different routes, amoung them being J. H.. Ratledge, of Ad Vance, P. W. Hairston, of nefr Fork Church, J. S. Strqwd, of Coo- leemee, Rev, Mr. Thompson, of Advance. -These speeches were fol­ lowed by - a fifteen niinute speech by Jacob Steifart Esq., j who favor ed the Oak’s Ferry i site. Mr. Stewart was-followed - by A. T. Grant, Jr.. who opposed the Oak’s Ferry site and* contended that the bridge should" be built at Fulton for the benefit of the uorthfeast section of Davie and the northwest section of Davidson county.- Tne conten­ tion of the. Fulton peopie-was that if the bridge was located farther down the river from Advance,’ it would seriously iuterferje with one Of the Advance mail lojutes which erosses the river at Fulton.and ser­ ves a part of Davidson county The contention of the Oak’s Ferry site was that road would not only save the state nearly'$ipo.ooo, but l;ast 85 per cent of the people of this county who used the Lexing­ ton road. Highway Engineer R. G. Browning, of Raleigh, who has charge of the locating of bridges in the State, was present. All of the Davie county highway commission­ ers were present except! the County Chairinanr H. M. Deadmon, who was in Raleigh on business atid-J. F. Click. ' A -hard fight was put up by those who favored , the Fulton Ferry bridge site, burthe highway- commissioners present rendered their decision that the bridge be built on the site designated by the: State Highway engmee ssome time ago. Itjs thought that work will begin on this bridge ajt an early date, despite the fact; that !some think an appeal will be taken to the entire board of State Highway com­ missioners. I t . is also thought that the contract will be let at an early date for the hardsurface road from Mocksville to Statesville on - Higbt way 75 _______________ J. B. Campbell, who has been very til for the past, two months, is lightly improved. ThS following.clipping was taken from The Lexington Dispatch of April 21st. The article had re­ ference to a bridge that was needed connecting .,Davidson and 'Davie counties near the "neck” in Boone township: . - . ‘11 .can practically see Jerusalem church.from my house,” said one citizen, "only Sik miles away in Davie, but wh'eri the ferries below trie are ab>nIdiied it will require a journey of. twenty-six miles to get there. ” Jerusalem church is a very historic place, for it is in the grave­ yard there that the bodies of Squire Boone and his wife, parents of the great American pioneer, Daniel Boone1Jieburied. We don’t know where the gentle­ man quoted above got his informa­ tion in regard to Squire and Sarah Boone, parents of. Daniel Boone, being buried in Jerusalem grave­ yard. Their bodies now lie sleep ing in Joppa graveyard, one mile west of Mocksville. without some- onq has had the bodies rem ovedto Jerusalem within the past day or two.

YOUNG P E O P L E AND A DULT TO P­ IC —T he D an g er of Sudden T em ptations. I. Peter’s Downfall (M art 14:29-71). This began when he refused to hear about the cross and ended when he, with, a foul oath, declared: “I know not the man.” When the disciples would no longer hear Christ's message about the cross, they not only ceased to grow In knowledge, but they began to deteriorate In moral discernment and were exposed to the possibility of the shameful denial of their Lord. Steps In Peter’s backsliding: 1. Overweaning self-confidence (tv. 29-31JT HiS unwillingness to face the cross alienated him from Jesus and when apprized of the feet that the disciples would all forsake"~Jesus, Peter de­ clared that Jesus was certainly mis­ taken, saying: “Although all shall be offended, yet will not L” Our condi­ tion is most perilous when we are most sure of our .safety. 2. Sleeping at the post of duty (v. 87). In one short hour the very one who was so confident of his self-sufficiency, had fallen asleep instead of watching.' The only way to escape from back­ sliding Is to watch. 3. Lack of prayer (v. 38). The legitimate Inference from the Lord’s words “watch and pray” Is that He had commanded them to pray as well as to watch. The reason there is so little prayer is due to the lack of the sense of need of God’s help. 4. Misguided zeal (v. 47). Peter drew a sword and cut oft an ear of a servant of the high priest (John 18:10) when they came to ar­ rest Jesus. He was thus zealous for the Lord. He was trying to make up In outward service his conscious lack of communion. 5. Followed Jesus afar off (v. 54). Christ’s rebuke for taking the sword and- the awkward position in which his act had placed him, caused him to follow afar oft. He keenly felt Christ’s reprimand. Following Jesus afar off got him into trouble. 6. Warmed. himself at the enemy’s fire (v. 87). This fire was built by those who had come unsympathetically to witness the crucifixion and. even to mock in this tragic hbur. For Christ’s disciples to try to get comfort from the things prepared ior the satisfaction of His enemies is sinful. Many professing Christians are living a life of com­ promise, even attempting to get pleas­ ures out of the things which the ene­ mies of Christ have prepared for themselves. 7. Open denial (w. 66-71). Step by step downward Peter went until the words of a servant girl pro­ voked open and blasphemous denial. This even by one who had said: “If I should die with thee I will not deny tbae In any wise.”-Peter’s trouble be­ gan when he shrank from the cross. It was that shunning which separated him from contact with God. -It should bS^temembered that there can be no backsliding until there be established a position from which to slip. Many of the so-called backsliders have never been born again. II. The Repentance of Peter (Luke 22:61-62). 1. The look of Jesus (v. 61). This was a most wondrous look. It was doubtless filled with pity and pain. Christ knew the trials through which Peter, and the other disciples would pass and He prayed for them. This look brought to Peter the full con­ sciousness of his cowardice and dis­ loyalty and his blasphemous words of denial, and yet it displayed His pity and forgiving love. 2. Peter’s bitter tears (v. 62). The look of Jesus brought convic­ tion of sin. It called to mind his boastfulness and cowardice. How aw­ ful must have been'his condition as he went out that night into the dark­ ness, little suspecting that there would be found a way to get back Into com­ munion with his Lord. Doubtless the message from the women as they came from the tomb brought the first good cheer to his heart " Christ said to them: “Go and tell my disciples and Peter.” This encouraged him, no doubt, as It indicated Christ’s partic­ ular (consideration and love for him.

T he H oly G host No man Is at his best until he Is filled with the JQoly Ghost.—Bchoea ' CitiesReqiiire Protected Milk Ordinances Are Adopted in Many Towns Demanding Tuberculin Test. (PreparM by the United- States D Spirt- • ment o f' A griculture.) Esenslve interest of cities In' the nation-wide campaign against tuber­ culosis of .live stock Is seen in results of a survey recently condi&tet?"by the United States Department of Agricul­ ture. A total’ of 874 cities and towns have ordinances requiring the tuber­ culin testing of cattle furnishing milk for consumption. Official reports Indi­ cate that with the exception of about I per-cent the ordinances are fairly well enforced. The action of such cities as Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit and Louisville, in promulgating tuberculin-test require­ ments has stimulated recent interest in this subject. The survey showed, however, that the smaller communities also are.fully as active in safeguard­ ing their milk supplies. Steps Taken to Safeguard. In addition to the 874 cities having tuberculin-test ordinances,. 735.pro­ vide an option between tuberculin test­ ing and pasturization. Thus a total of 1,249 municipalities have taken, steps safeguard their milk supplies from possibility of disease transmis- SiOfi. Fourteen states also have enacted laws or have issued regulations au­ thorized by law requiring the tuber­ culin testing of cattle. Tliough vary-. Ing in details, the laws have the same gen'eral purpose—to safeguard the wholesomeness of milk supplies. In all cases tuberculin tests must be ap­ plied by approved graduate veteri­ narians.5 • As a basis for skilled tuberculin testing in which the public may have confidence, the federal and state vet­ erinary officials have prepared lists of “accredited” and “approved” veteri­ narians. These terms apply to private practitioners who have satisfied fed­ eral and state authorities as to their qualifications. Forms of Supervision. An ,examination of the forms of su­ pervision over the tuberculin testing of cattle supplying cities with milk shows the large extent to which cities have ncceptec] the so-called uniform plan of drinking. This plan provides federal and state indemnities for cat­ tle which prove to be tuberculous and which are removed from the herd and slaughtered. The plan Is followed by 634 cities. Cities that rely on mu­ nicipal inspection alone number 498, while 117 other cities and towns use a combination of the two safeguards or make some other provision for tu­ berculin testing. ‘ • ' A study of reports from .the various states explains the rather general adoption of pasteurization as an addi­ tional safeguard even when the cattle are tuberculin tested. Proper pas­ teurization, as is well known, destroys any infection from other'disease-pro­ ducing organisms that may be present It also gives double assurance that no living tubercle bacilli are present.' Milki From Other State3. Some states, of which Florida is a typical example, receive large quan­ tities of milk from other states. Flor­ ida does not have a state-wide tuber­ culin-testinglaWt but the city of Mi­ ami, for Instance, requires pasteuriza­ tion In addition to tuberculin testing. Much other milk received in the state is alse pasteurized since its origin, outside of the state, is beyond the ju­ risdiction of local inspectors. In sev­ eral small towns tuberculin testing of cattle Is conducted In response to a demand of patrons, tliough-no official ordinance requires such tests. These sidelights appear to show the strength of public opinion and the ex­ tent to which milk consumers demand safety with respect to their milk sup­ plies. The condition appears to be especially true in states to which ,tour­ ists and homeseekers go for their health. Several states have issued educa­ tional literature dealing with bovine tuberculosis, the evidence of transmis­ sion to human beings, plans for eradi­ cation, and laws and regulations for suppressing the disease. Besides this means of stimulating in­ terest In safe milk supplies, various state officials have drafted sample milk ordinances based on successful ordinances elsewhere. In these are ’ embodied effective and practical pro­ visions for dealing with the tubercu­ losis problem. Some cities have taken more definite action than others, but , evidence Is abundant that city, “fathers” are be­ coming more and more concerned in guarding the milk consumed in their communities. Cooperative Egg. Marketing Gaining Three Million Cases Were Handled During 1925. (Prepared by the United States Depart* m ent of Agriculture.) . Approxiniately 3,000,000 cases of eggs, worth, slightly more than $30,- 000,000, were marketed co-operatively In the United States in 1925 to farm­ ers’ egg and poultry marketing asso­ ciations. This figure, complied by the United States Department of Agricul­ ture, compares with 2,400,000 cases, worth $22,000,000, handled co-opera­ tively in 1924. J The department's estimates are based on reports from about 60 active egg and poultry associations. These associations are located In 21 states. Their business is believed to comprise' most of the egg marketing done co­ operatively In the country. A few as,- sociations failed to report the volume SV their business to the department, but. these are small concerns whose figures presumably would not greatly affect the total. One of the California associations handled 782,'070 cases of eggs last year. This was the largest quantity handled for any one co-operative con­ cern. Two of the associations han­ dled more than 500,000 cases each. The smallest volume of business re­ ported by any' one association for 1925 consisted of 585 cases of eggs, -han­ dled by a Minnesota organization. The reports showed that the delrrery of a large number of cases of eggs per member is more important in ' deter­ mining the total volume of the asso­ ciations’ business tham a large mem­ bership. * In connection with its egg marketing studies, the department has made an attempt to find out what amount of poultry Is handled co-operatively in the United States. There is less in­ formation available about poultry mar­ keting than about egg marketing. However, the department says a total of 12,328,057 pounds of live poultry was handled last year by Si co-oper­ ative associations. Sixteen associa­ tions handling dressed poultry report­ ed the marketing of 4,090,510 pounds in 1925. Leading states in the co-operative marketing of live poultry were as fol­ lows: Missouri, 9,871,453 pounds) Minnesota, 1,827,131 pounds; Wiscon­ sin, 208,735-pounds. DemonstrationHighway. ; Built Through Bull Run A demonstration- highway from which it is expected to obtain informa­ tion comparable in value with that, produced by the Bates road and Pittsburg (Calif.) tests and the ,ex­ periments of "the bureau of public roads at Arlington, Va., is now under construction between Fairfax iand •Warrenton, Ta. Tlie rond,‘which is being built by the Virginia highway commission un­ der the direction of Henry G. Shir­ ley, chairman, and C- S. M*lleri, chief engineer, is a federal-ald project. It traverses the historic Bull Run' bat­ tlefield and the famous'-bridge over the ran still may be seen by visitors to the demonstration road. Kill All Garden Pests Before They Get Start As crop insurance for'Missouri gar­ dens in 1927, Leonard Haseman, en­ tomologist at the Missouri College of Agriculture, urges every gardener to clean up all trash at the first oppor­ tunity. - - After burning the trash to destroy all hibernating insects, plow the ground just , as soon as the frost is out sufficiently to permit it. This will expose-many more insects that live under, ground.- A later freeze is Ukely to kill them and will also im­ prove the condition of the soil. Very early In the spring, also, the' war can be carried into the camp of the garden mole. In the earliest of his spring runs, while food is scarce, raisins or scraps of meat treated with strychnine will prevent a lot of later damage to lawn and garden. AU such early measures which re­ duce the numbers of insects and larg­ er pests in advance of warm weather will prove very effective in prevent- Ing-Jarge Increases In their numbers and reducing the difficulties of the tfusy gardening season. Seed-Corn Maggot Also Pest of Seed Potatoes Studies of the seen-corn maggot,' which" is also a pest of-seed potatoes, lead the bureau of entomology to con­ clude that maggot attack normally fol­ lows seed-potato injury or decay. It has been found that the eggs of the adult fly are not as a rule deposited on freshly cut pieces of seed potato, even though these'are left exposed In the field for severai hours. The young maggots do not feed on healthy plepes of potato seed, but if decay Is present the maggots enter these spots and develop ivithout difficulty. Plant­ ing methods which .tend to preserve the seed and prevent rotting or burn­ ing throughout the germination period will lessen injury by this insect « f Agricultural Notes ^ Don’t be fooled by old corn;- Test It. a * European Larch grows well on dry upland and it produces good posts and poles.

More and more people are asking: "Why should my used car seem to have several values?... Why should dealers in different makes of • cars offer me allowances differing materi­ ally? .. . Does the largest allowance offered mean the best deal for me?” Here are basic facts: 1 Your used car has seemingly different values ' because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new caj. _ 2 Your used car has only one fundamental basis of value: what the dealer who accepts it in trade.can get for it in the used car market. 3 The largest trade-in allowance which is of­ fered on your used car is not necessarily ths _ best deal for you. Sometimes it is; but some­ times it is not. 4 An excessive allowance may mean that you are paying an excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. 5 Judge the merits of the new car in compari­ son with its price, including all delivery and finance charges. Then weigh any difference in allowance offered on your used car. When you are ready to trade-in your present car, remember that after all you are making a purchase and not a sale. You are buying a new car and simply applying your present car as a credit toward the purchase price of the new car.

Devon’s voice was very quiet,' but there was a quality In It which added to the Icy chill of the night. “I know you’re not alone, but If any of your pals shows himself, Fll shoot him dead, if you move or utter one word, or cry out, I’ll kill yon. Do you un­ derstand?”. Shaw did understand. The look In his protruding eyes proved that. Those eyes shifted wildly, turning this way and that, as if In search of the help which lurked among those Bpectral trees. He himself stood as motion­ less as one of them, and as he stood he moistened his tbln lips with the tip of a trembling tongue. * “Now," said Laurie, “I’m going to have the truth. I’m going to have it all, and I’m going to have it quick. If you don’t tell it, I’ll kill you. Prob­ ably ,I shall kill you anyway. But first you will answer two questions. What power have you got over Miss Mayo? And wiiat are you trying to do?” Shaw hesitated. Again his pro­ truding eyes turned wildly to the right and left, as if in search of help.- Still holding the revolver In his right hand, Laurie slowly reached out his left and seized the other’s throat in the grip of his powerful yoting fingers. “Keep still,” he warned,'as the oth­ er started to raise his hands. “Tou think the game Isn’t up, but It is. Now talk, and talk quick.” He tightened his grip on the thick, slippery throat “I’m enjoying this,” he rasped. “If you were anything but the snake you are, I’d give you a fighting chance. But a creature that uses chloroform and hires three thugs to help him in his dirty jobs—” He Increased the pressure on the thick neck. Shaw’s face began to purple. His eyes bulged horribly. He choked, and with the act gave up. “Hold on,” he gurgled. “Listen.” The pressure on his throat slightly relaxed. With- eyes closed, he col­ lapsed against the nearest tree trunk. Laurie followed him, expecting some treacherous move; but all the fight seemed out of the serpent. He was clutching at his coat and collar as If pot yet able to breathe. “I’ve had enough of this,” he finally gasped out. “I’ll tell you everything.” Even as he spoke, Laurie observed that one of the clutching, clawing hands had apparently got hold of what it was seeking. * • » • * * * Doris, feeling her way through the blackness of the storm on the unfa­ miliar country road, heard above the wind the sound of a sharp explosion Which she thought meant a blown-out Ure. She did not stop. Before her, only a short distance away, was the garage to which she was. hastening ’ “Stand Exactly Where You Arelw and where she was to wait for Laurie. To go on meant to take a chance, but she had beenSjrdered not to stop. There was a certain exhilaration In obeying that order. Crouched over the wheel, with head bent, and guess­ ing at the turns she could not see, she pressed on through the storm. CHAPTER XV Burke Make# a Promise Burke, dozing over the fire In his BO-called office, was aroused from his dreams by the appearance of a vision. For a moment he blinked at it doubt- fnlly. Then into his eyes came a dawning intelligence, slightly tinged with reproach. - Burke was an unimaginative man, who did not Uke to be jarred out of his routine. Already that day sev­ eral unusual incidents had occurred, oiid though, like popular tales, they ended happily, they had been almost too great a stimulus to thought. Now here was another, In the form of a girl young and beautiful, and appar­ ently blown into his presence on the wings of the wild storm *-* caging. 1WNtr SsnrlcS^ that-«r was Somewhat uncertainly, Mr. Burke arose and approached ,the vision, which, standing "at the Uireshold of his sanctum, thereupon addressed him in hurried hut reassuring human tones. . “I’ve had a blowout,” the lady brief­ ly announced. “Will you put On a ‘spare,’ please, and take a look at th% other shoes?" This service, she estimated, would take half an hour of the proprietor’s time, if he moved with the customary deliberation of his class,, and would, of course, make superfluous any ex­ planation of her wait In the garage, and of her nervousness, if he hap­ pened to be sufficiently observant to notice that. It was really fortunate that the blowout had occurred. - Surely within the half hour Laurie would have re­ joined her. If he did not, she frank­ ly conceded to herself, she would go .niad- with suspense. There was a limit to what She could endure, and that limit had been reached. Thirty minutes more of patience and courage and seeming calm covered the last draft she could make on a nervous system already greatly overtaxed. Burke drew his worn office chair close to the red-h6t stove, and was mildly pained by the lady’s failure to avail herself of the comfort thus of­ fered. This, it will be remembered, was January, 1817, three months before America’s entry into the World war, and women able to drive motors were comparatively rare. Any girl who could drive a car in a storm like this, and through the drifts of country roads—Mr. Burke, having reluctantly removed himself from the lady’s pres­ ence, was now beside her car, and at this point In his reflections he uttered an exclamation and his jaw dropped. “It’s the lad’s car!” he ejaculated slowly, and for a moment stood star­ ing at it. Then, still slowly, he nodded. It was the lad’s car which, only a short time before, he himself had put In perfect order for a swift run to New Tork. Now this girl had it, but ’t was easy to see why. He had been wrong In his college-prank theory. Here was something more serious and much more interesting. Here was a love affair. As his meditations continued he was cursorily glancing at tiie tires, look­ ing for the one that had sustained tho blowout. He was not greatly sur­ prised to find every tire perfect. There had been plenty'of mysteries in the lad’s conduct, and this was /merely another trifle to add to die list. Un­ doubtedly the iady had her reasons for insisting on a blowout, and if she had, it was no affair of his. Also, the price for changing that tire would be a dollar, and Mr. Burke was al­ ways willing to pick up a dollar.. Whistling softly but sweetly, he re­ moved a rear shoe, replaced it with one of the “spares” on the car’s rack, and solemnly retested the others. The task, as Doris had expected, took him almost half an hour. When it was completed he lounged back to the lady and assured her that the car was again ready for service. The lady hesitated. There was no sign of Laurie, and she dared, not leave. Xet on what pretext could she linger?- With the manner of one who has unlimited time at her disposal, she demanded her bill, a written one, and paid it. Then, checking herself on a casual journey toward the big coat, she showed a willingness to in­ dulge in that exchange of , friendly points of view for which Burke's heart had longed. The exchange was not brilliant, but Burke made the most of It No, he told her, they didn’t often have storms as bad as this. One, several years ago, had blocked traffic for two days, but that was very unusual; With a gallant «ffort at ease, the lady took up the theme of the storm and embroidered it In pretty colors and with much delicate fancy. When the pattern was getting somewhat confused, she suddenly asked a lead­ ing question. “Which shoe blew out?” - Bnrke stared at her» He wished he knew what was expected of him. Did she want the truth, or didn’t she? He realized that momentarily she was becoming more ,excited. He had not missed her frequent glances through the window, up the road, and he knew that for the past’five minutes she had been listening for something wholly unconnected with his words. In real­ ity Doris was in the grip of an al­ most unconquerable panic. What had happened? Why didn’t Laurie come? Burke decided to let her have the truth, or part of the truth. “There wasn’t no blowout," he stated, defensively. ■ s. “There wasn’t I What do you mean?” ^ He saw that she was first surprised, Then startled, then, as some sudden reflection came to her, actually ap­ palled. " r , “I mean that there wasn’t no blow­ out”“No blowout? Then—then—what did I hear?” * She asked the question of Burke, and,'-as she asked it, re­ coiled suddenly, as if he had struck her. “P’raps you got a back-fire,” he sug­ gested, reassuringly. “Ton come down the steep hill up there, didn’t you?” Doris pulled' herself together, shrugged her shoulders, and resolute­ ly smiled at him. She knew the dif­ ference between the sound of a blow­ out and the backfiring of an irritated engine. But some abysmal Instinct made her_ suddenly cautious, though with that sanie instinct her inner pan­ ic developed. What had she heard? . ‘3 put on a ‘spare,’ anyway," Burke was saying.- "The rear right looked a little weak, so I changed It” He was tacitly explaining the bill he had submltte'd, but Doris did not hear him. What had she heard? In­ sistently the question repeated itself In her mind. She turned dizzily, and went hack for the coat As she did so she heard Burke’s voice. “Why—hel-lo I” Even In that moment she observed Its modulation. It had begun on a note of cheery sorprlse and ended on one of sharp concern. Turning, she saw Laurie. He had nodded to Burke, and was obviously trying to speak naturally. “All ready?” he asked. The remark was addressed to them both, but he looked at neither. There was an Instant of utter silence dur­ ing which they took him in, BurW with Insistent, goggling eyes, Doris with one quick glance, soul-searching and terror-filled. Burke spoke first “What you been doin’ to yerself?” he gasped. The question was Inevitable. Lau­ rie was hatless and disheveled. His coat was torn, and across one pallid cheek ran a deep cut, freshly bleed­ ing. “Fell,” he said, tersely. He was breathing hard, as if he had been running. He had not yet looked at Doris, but now he abruptly swung into the little office and emerged, bringing her coat. Without a word, he held it for her. In equal silence, she slipped Into it. He retrieved the cap from the pile of discarded gar­ ments still lying on the office floor, put it on, and indicated the waiting car. “Get In,” he commanded. She obeyed and he followed her, taking his place at the wheel. “You’re hurt,” she almost whis­ pered. “Shall I drive?” "No—Burke I” The word was like a pistol shot. “Y-yessir!” Burke was stammering. In his excitement he was hardly con­ scious that another bill had found Its way into his hand, but his hand had automatically reached for and closed on It ” ✓ “Keep your mouth shut” “Y-yessir.” “Keep it shut till tomorrow morn­ ing. You haven’t seen anything or anybody at all today. Understand?” “Y-yesslr.” “After tonight you can talk about me all you like. But you’re to forget absolutely that you ever saw the lady. Is that clear?” “Y-yessir.” “Thank yon. Good-by.” He started the car and swung it out into the storm. As it went Burke saw the girl catch the boy’s arm and heard something that sounded partly like a cry and partly like a sob. “Laurie I” “H-ush!” -N The car was tearing through the storm and drifts at fifty miles an hour, and this time it was headed down the road for New York. Burke's* eyes followed it, as far as he could see it, which was not far. Then he retreated to the “office,” and, dropping heavily into his desk chair, stared unseeingly at a calendar on the wall. It was a long moment before he re­ membered to open his hand and look at the bill he was holding. As he did so his eyes widened.. The bill was a large one- With a quick look around him, he thrust it into bis pocket. “I ain’t really seen nothin',” be mut­ tered, “an* I ain't sure of nothin’, any­ how.” ■£? -v• • • • • « * “What has happened? Oh, Lanrle, what has happened?” For a time Laurie did nojt answer. Then she feit rather than saw his face turn toward her In the darkness. “Doris.” “Yes.” “Will yon do something for me?" “Yes, Laurie, anything.” “Then don’t sgeak till we reach New York. . When we get to your studio I’ll tell you everything. Will you do that?” “But—Laurie-^" “Will—you—do—It?" The yolce was not Laurie’s. It was the harsh, grating voice of a man distraughtr “Yes, of course.” Silence settled-' upon them like a substance, a silence broken only by the roar of the storm and the crash­ ing of wind-swept branches of the ’trees that lined the,road.. The car’s powerful searchlights threw up In ghostly shapes th$ covered stumps and hedges they passed and the great masses of snow that beat against them. Subconsciously the girl knew that this boy beside her, driving with the recklessness of a lost soul, was merely guessing at a road no one could have seen, but In that half-hour she had no thought for the hazards of the journey. Her panic had grown till it filled her soul. Once, In a frantic impulse* of need of human contact, she laid her hand on the arm nearest her, over the wheel. The next Instant she withdrew It with a shudder. For all the re­ sponse she had found she might have The Car Was Yisarlng Through the Storm and Drifts at Fifty Miles an Hour. This Time It Was Headed Down the Road for New York. touched a dead man. Something of the look of a dead man, too, was In the boy’s face and eyes as. he bent forward, motionless' as a statue, his features like stone and his eyes as un- human as polished agate, staring fix­ edly at the road before them. It was on a stretch of road through the woods that the obsession In her mind took Its final and -most hideous form. Close behind them, and ring­ ing in their ears, she fancied she heard a cry in the voice of Shaw. It was not Shaw’s human voice. She would not have known it In a human world. It had passed through the great change; but It was recognizable, because she, too, had passed through some great change. Recognizable, too, was the sound of Shaw’s'running feet, although she had never heard them run, and though they were running so lightly on top of the snow. He was just behind, them, she thought If she turned she knew she would see him, not as she had known him, plump, sleek, living and loath­ some, but stark, rigid and ready for his grave, yet able to pursue; and the new, unearthly light of his bulging eyes seemed burning into her back. She groaned, but the groan brought no response from the tense figure be­ side her. The only sounds were the howls of the- wind, the frenzied pro­ tests of the tortured trees, and the fancied hall of a dead man, coming closer and closer. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Explains Scarcity of Really Clever People An epigrammatist once wrote: “Clev­ er women hide what they know; clever men hide wh^t they don’t know.” How true it Is. How wise is our epigram­ matist to observe and remark on this I Now, then: It Is equally true that clev­ er women hide what they don’t know-; and clever men hide what they know. No one can deny this, wherefore we are forced to the logical conclusion that clever women hide what they know and what they, don’t know, and clever men hide what they know and what they don’t know, and so. we see that clever people hide everything!

May It not well be that people whom we consider dull an<T stupid are merely clever people busily doing their hiding?

Ihjkes have KING AS LANDLORD Make Annual Gift in Return : for Estates. Woodstock, England.—In spite of housing shortages and rising rents there are two persons In England who ean live without fear of waking up some morning to find that the.ir rents have' been doubled. -They are the duke of Marlborough and duke of Welling­ ton and their landlord Is the king of England,- Both nobleqien hold their great estates as grants of royal favor from the crown. But the gift Js not out­ right Some return must be made and so it Is that each of these noble lords must go once each year on a solemn, pilgrimage to the king of England at Buckingham palace to make some gift which will insure his tenure for the following year. The selection of the gift is by no means left to the personal fancy of the giver. It is carefully set down in Blackstone’s "commentaries” that the two tenants must render to the king annually “some small Implement of War as a bow, a sword, a lance, an arrow, or the like." The duke of Marlborough’s estate, Blenheim palace, at Woodstock, was given to the first duke of Marlborough as a reward for his victory at the battle of Blenheim" In the War of the Spanish Succession In 1704. It was begun_ln 1704 and completed, in 1722.- The total cost of the. palace was £300,- 000, of which f250,000 was' defrayed by parliament. Similarly, Stratford Saye house, hear Beading, was? presented to the first duke of Wellington , by the nation, In 1815, following his victory over Na­ poleon at the battle of Waterloo. SoViet to Preserve Chapel of Virgin Moscow. — Cathedrals, churches, mosques and synagogues of definite historical or architectural Interest are to be preserved intact by the Soviet government This was Indicated by the commis­ sariat of education in refusing the pe­ tition of a Moscow borough govern­ ment seeking the demolition of the famous chapel of the Iberian Virgin, which the devout consider the most sacred spot In Bussla. The borough claimed It impeded traffic. “This precious Sixteenth century structure,” said the commissariat, “has every claim to be preserved with the rest of Kussin’s monuments, be­ cause it represents a definite, his­ torical, artistic period In th%life of the country.” . . ” J' « ■ Standing, at the entrance to Red Square, the diminutive edifice was made famous by its ikon of the Iberian Virgin, reputed to have miraculous powers, and by the fact that all czars during the last 800 years invariably went there for inspiration and bless­ ing before ascending the throne. ' 'Get Thee Gone,’ Divorce Decree in Turkestan Tashkent, U. S. S. B--Turkestan is one of the few- remaining Moslem countries Wheres-Jhe system of tem­ porary marriages prevails. As in the new Turkey, a man may divorce his wife by saying in sub­ stance : “Get thee gone I" He is then free to try matrimony with another. But the woman, under Islamic law, cannot remarry until 100 days have elapsed after her divorce. If she does so, she is cast out from Moham­ medan society as a sinner. Among the natives of Turkestan the penalty for infidelity In a wife. Is both severe and humiliating. To'show -her guilt, her face is blackened and she is placed on a donkey, with her face to­ ward its tall, and led through the bazars of the town. Judge Insists White Plains, N.

The old idea that the Sho- - shone Indian should have his personal effects burled with him was workable In the days when he slept on a buffalo robe, but these modern beds present a problem which is generally solved by leaving the bed above ground. The burial place was estab­ lished 43 years ago by Rev. John Roberts adjoining his log mis­ sion, which still stands. At that I time the funeral ceremony con­ sisted of placing the body of the deceased on Oie back of a pony which was led, followed by a cortege, up long trails to • a mountain top.

Carlsbad, N. M.—PIctographs of an aboriginal race that antedates all known southwestern tribes are min­ gled in the Guadalupe mountains near here with the more recent sketches and paintings of the Apache warriors who hid with the wily Geronimo, and witli the initials of the pursuing sol­ diers under Gen. Nelson A. Miles. The Guadalupe range is perhaps as little known as anj£ in the United States, much of it never having Jieen explored by white_men. But: the little that has been examined promises a field of archeological investigation for many years. Carvings on 8ldes of Bluffs, The hieroglyphics of the ancient tribe are carved and scratched on the bluffs and in the caves they inhabited In the mountains, and no attempt has been made to decipher their mean­ ing. Unlike most Indian carvings and paintings the pictographs bear no resemblance to animal forms, but are In almost every case arrangements of geometric figures in friezes or panels, reaching In places to a height of eight feet The friezes stretch to lengths of 100 feet or more horizontally until marred or broken up by the decay of rock stfata into which they were cut. In contrast to the maze o t~ m ark- Ings etched by the stone tools of the ancient race are the huge, gaudy draw­ ings fashioned by the Indians during the last 150 years. One particularly brilliant painting is above a ledge high Jn tlie hills where, tradition has it, one of Geronimo’s warriors fortified himself for a lone stand against the white troopers In the early eighties. Many Soldiers’ Names. The painting depicts a warrior pointing up the canyon. The faint outline of a horse is close beside him. The picture Is translated as a warn­ ing to his tribesmen that mounted enemies are approaching through the canyon. Indications of the passage of white soldiers through the mountains are plentiful.

Bonney, better known as “Billy the Kid.” Incites “War” to Kill PestsAmongInsects Seattle, Wash.—Important to hu­ mans, although almost unnoticed by the general public, a war of extinction between mortal enemies in the Irfeect world has been going on In the Pa­ cific Northwesf for four years and the end is not yet In sight. The warfare was instigated by Prof. Trevor Kincaid, professor of biology at the University of Washington, In an attempt to control a serious infesta­ tion known as the earwig, a species of harmful insect, by importing para­ sitical taehinade flies from Europe.’ The taehinade flies are natural ene­ mies of the earwig. Both came from Europe originally. When poison bait and other weapons failed to check Ithe encroachments of the earwig, the flies were pitted against them, first in a laboratory arena, where the earwig-was victori­ ous, and then in the fields at large. An omnivorous eater of all growing things, the earwig also ensconces It­ self snugly In clothing or shipments of goods and does considerable damage.

London.—How a lioness successfully defended the life of a man who had administered medical attention to her sick cubs when be was-attacked by a huge African lion was recounted in dispatches received . here ' from Leicester. Capt. Fred Wombwell, a Uon tamer, with a circus showing, at Leicester, entered the cage, of the lioness and her cubs after a performance, and was attending to the'sick cubs when (he Uon broke through a partition from an adjoining section of the cage? and sprang on the tamer. The defenseless man was pinned in a corner of the cage, struggling with the enraged beast, when the mother lioness savagely sprang upon the -back- of the lion, biting and tearing the beast with her claws. Her efforts were successful, and after a fierce- and savage, struggle she dragged the lion off Captain Wombwell. His back and shoulders bleeding profusely from Innumerable wounds, Wombwell suc-_ ceeded In dragging himself from the cage. His strength was practically gone, but he latched the door belqve falling unconscious. « In the meantime, the lion turned to defend himself from the mother of the cubs, and the two beasts engaged In a fierce fight. Wombwell was found near the cage by an attendant who was attracted to the scene by the noise of the con­ flict In connection with the rescue by the lioness, it is pointed out that Cap­ tain Wombwell was saved from al­ most certain death under practically identical circumstances three years ago. - First “Miss America” Unearthed in Georgia * Atlanta, Ga!—With hair cropped to the vanishing point, ear lobes pierced for whimsical gee-gaws and dress ab­ breviated, Miss America the first or thereabouts, retains her figure while secretly numbering her years by cen­ turies and defying any modern man to reveal her past. Blonde or brunette, gentlemen’s preferences matter not a whit with her, whose heart is of- stone. . She thrills archeologists and ethnologists who gaze on her wild grace and pon­ der over the mystery of her place and age In a race long gone in Georgia. Imprisoned for countless moons be­ neath the henna clay of Etowah In­ dian mounds In northwest Georgia, she was found by a plowman, who straight­ way sent her to the state museum in Atlanta to resume her feign. So famous has she now become, she already has made two trips north­ ward, one to New York and the other to Washington, where she was studied and -replicas made of her for use by ‘scientists. ..These now are on display in New .York, -Phillips academy, And­ over, Mass.; the Smithsonian institu­ tion, Washington, and Oglethorpe uni­ versity, Atlanta. Despite the fact archeologists and others of their kind are “simply crazy” about her, the idol has large, lusteriess eyes, a defiant mouth, with a; leering tongue slightly protruding and squatty forehead. She is In a state of good preservation, although her left arm is missing. Fifteen-and three-fourths inches in height, she weighs 33% pounds. ■ . ' “Serve” Dancers to W omeninBerlin -Berlin.—“Waiter, a dancer, please I” In this categoric way, women in fash­ ionable dancing places or hotels may “order” a gentleman dancer hired by the management, just as they would order ice cream or a bottle of. cham- pagne, and they usually tip the dancer just as they would the .waiter. Owing to the dally growing variety of modem society dance's women found out that it was hard for.them to keep up-to-date. So, some' Berlin gayety places created the new profession of “drill dancer,” for whom a stylish din­ ner jacket, stainless linen, a "pair of patent leather shoes and 'a' monocle' are the indispensable requisites. Of course,- good manners are required, too, and a’lot of patience.'

This marvfel, which a generation ago would have shocked us into believing the end of the world had -come, Is accom­ plished by devices in the plane which amplify the human voice about 100.- 000,000 times and give it a certain amount of direction in the transmis­ sion. Maiiy test flights have been made over great eastern cities in the United States with singers aboard. A girl soprano who was taken aloft, to sing, said she became so frightened alone inside the little sound-proof cabin in the plane that she couldn't utter a note. Many other singers and speakers, however, have cast their voices a mile to the ground, making city streets echo weirdly. HEARING RESTORED An invisible Ear Drum invented by A. 0.
