One prize of $250 will be award ed by the-American Railway Asso ciation for the best essay by a high school student jand a like amount for ihe best essay by a college stud ent. Under rules prescribed by the American Railway Association, the subject to the essay is to.be limited to 250 words. The essay must be terse, logical aud constructive and must stress the need for. greater care in ap proaching and passing over railroad crossings. . The essays are to be sent to J. G. Caviston, Secretary of fhe Safe ly Section of the American Rail way Association at 30 Vosey Street, New York City, by not later than June 1st. Three persons of nation al reputation to be selected later will act as jugdes. Under the plan, class teachers in both gratmnar;apd_l^h.£ebool ,will; select the best essay for their class es and transmit them to theiP prin cipal who will then select the best otfe from that school and send it to the Superintendent of schools of the county or an-equivalent officer. The County Superintent will then select the best essay written by a gramma I student aud the best one written by a high school student in his county and will transmit them to the American Railway Associa tion. Colleges may follow the same procedure except that each college or university, through its proper officer, may select one essay and thransmit diriect to the Ameri can Railway Association. In 1926 there were 5,92: high way grade crossing accidents in which 2,492 persons were killed and 6,991 injured. In 1925 there were 5,479 accidents in which 2,206 persous were killed and 6,555 in jured. O1Wing to the increase that is constantly taking place in the number of automabiles used, the hazard from such accidents is an nually becoming greater. Only through the corporation of the pub lic and Jhe railroads can a reduction in such accidents be brought about in view of the fact that the com plete elimination of highway grade crossings is impossible, not only because of the time that would te involved, but also because of 'the prohibitive cost which ultimately falls on the public.

Sober Drivers Wanted. There is an increasingly large mass of evidence that the states and cities of this country want automo bile drivers to be sober and that they intend to do something drrstic if their wishes are not respected. Governor Jackson of Indiana, has but recently signed a bill that carries severe penalities for the person who ties to drive a motor car.while under the influence of liquor^ of ‘ narcotic drugs. Under the new Indiana statute, a drunken driver is liable to fine of from $100 to $500 and a jail sentence of from 30 days to .six months for the first offense. A se cond convjction renders the offender liable to a penalty of from on to five years in prison. The action taken by Uiet-Indiana iegislasure is some what drastic, but the penalties are no more than commensurate with che gravity of the offense foy which they are, imposed. An intoxicated man at the wheel of a motor car is a menace against which the general public has no-adequate defense. In a Virginia city a few days ago a drunken driver more or less serious ly injured’seven teen persons before a post providently stopped him , in his mad career. There is no telling what he mieht have done "if good fortune had not steered him against the post. The is no excuse ^for the drunken driver, and whateyermeans may be necessary should be taken to eliminate him He is fully ^ dan-, gerous as a maniac jvith a gun — Mashville Banner... ! : . -1^Let the city dads alone—tliey get pay for running .thi town.

Projects fOnHighway 75 For Bids.Ready The state highway commission at Raleigh Tuesday announced bids will be considered on 13 road pro jects at the letting here on Tues day, May 17. The projects include:: No. 676, .Rowan, grading 6.4 miles route 80, Salisbury to Davie county line. ; No. 6370, Iredell, grading and structures six miles, ioute 75, Tur- nersburg to Davie county line. No. 733. Davie county grading and structure, route 75, 10 niiles, Mocksville to Iredell county sur facing route 10,: Valdese to Cataw ba county, line. The two-bids for Highway 75 as announced would.take care of the entire distance between Mocksville and Turnersburg, at which latter point No. 75 connects «[ith No. 26 and follows it into Statesville. At a recent meeting the Davie board of commmissioners asked’ that this section of the road be first surfaced in that county. Tne grading and structures probably forecasts hard surfacing of that section of road. Should a bridge be built across the Yadkin River, as is ;iiow in con templation. it would be necessary to build several miles been the river aiid Fork, in Davie, and about the ^ same di nance eastwarcj from th e :!! r ver on the Davidson side. TheseI ‘ [ projects probably wait; until the < • bi id^e construction was: well under way, at least the one on'.the David son side' as the road there would be needed for hauling in materials for bridge construction.—The Dispat:h ■ D.

They saw the effort and Its failure, and un derstood both. W ith a gesture of hopelessness, he turned his back toward them, and stood with sagging muscles and eyes fixed on the empty grate. Epstein’s nerves snapped. "For God’s sake, Devon,” he begged, "cut out the valtsl Tell us vot you got on yonr chest, and tell It quick.” Laurie turned and once more met his eyes. Under the look Epstein’s oblique eyes shifted. “I’m going to,” Laurie said quietly and still In those new, flat tones. "T hat’s why Fve brought you here. But—It’s a hard Job. You see"—his voice again lost Its steadiness—"I’ve got to hurt you—all of you—most aw fully* And—and that’s the hardest p art of this business for me.” Doris, now staring up a t him, told herself that she could not endure an other moment of this tension. She dared not glance at either of the oth- “Sit Down" He Said Wearily. AU the Life Had Gone Out of His Voice. ers, but she heard Epstein’s heavy breathing and the creak of Eodney Bangs’ chair as he suddenly changed hls position. "He killed H erbert Shaw,” she al most whispered. For a long moment there was utter silence In the room, through which the words just spoken seemed to scurry like living things, anxious to be out and away. Laurie, his eyes on the girl, showed no change In his po sition, though a spasm crossed his face. Epstein, putting up one fat hand, feebly beat the air with It as if trying to push back something that w as approaching him, something in tangible but terrible. Bangs alone seemed at last to have taken in the full meaning of the curt announce m ent As if It had galvanized him Into movement, he sprang to his feet and, head down, charged the situation. “W hat the devil Is she talking about?” he cried o u t "Laurie I W liat does she mean?” “She told- you.” Laurie spoke as quietly as before, but without look ing up. "You—mean—It’s—true?” Rodney still spoke In a loud, aggres sive voice, as if trying to awaken him self and the others from a nightmare. "Take It ln>’’ m uttered Laurie. "Pull yourselves up to It. I had to.’’ An uncontrollable shudder ran over him. As If his nerve had suddenly given way, he dropped his head on his bent arm. For another interval Bangs stood staring at him In a stu pefaction through which a slow tre mor ran. “I—I can’t take It In,” he stammered at last. "I know.* That’s the way I felt.” Laurie spoke without raising his head. Bangs, watching him, saw him shudder again, saw that his legs were giving under him, and that he was lit erally bolding to the mantel for sup port. The sight steadied his own nerves.' He pushed his chair forward, and with an arm across the other's shoulder, forced him down into It. “Then In God’s name, why are we wasting time here?” he suddenly de manded. “Your car’s outside. I’ll drive you—anywhere. •• We’ll get out of the country. We’ll travel at night and lie low In the daytime. Pull your self together, old man.” Urgently, he grasped the other’s shoulder. “We've got things to do.” Laurie shook his head. He tried to smile. There was something horrible in the resulting grimace of his twisted mouth. “There were only two things to do,” he said doggedly. “One was to tell you three. I’ve done th a t The other was to tell the district attorney. Tve done that, too.’’ Bangs recoiled as If from a phys ical blow. Epstein, who had slightly roused himself at the prospect of ac tion, sank' back Into a stunned, gog gling silence. “Yes,” Laurie was pulling himself together. “We’re friends, you know, Perkins and I,” he went on, more nat urally. "I’ve seen a good deal of him lately..-H e will make It as easy asihe can. He has taken my parole, rv e got—till morning.” He let them take that In. Then, very simply, he added, “I have promised to be in my rooms at eight o’clock.” ^ Under this, like a tree-trunk goM down witli the final stroke of the ax, Rodney Bangs collapsed. "My G—d!” he muttered. “My— G—d !” He fell into the nearest chair and sat there, his head In his shaking hands. As if the collapse of his friend were a call to his own strength, Laurie sud denly sat up and took himself In hand. “Now listen,” he said. “Let’s take this sensibly. We’ve got to thresh out the situation, and here’s our last chance. I w ant to make one thing clear. Shaw was pure vermin. There’s no place for his sort In a decent world, and I have no more regret over—over exterm inating him than I would have over killing a snake. Later, MTss Mayo will tell you why.” Under the effect of the clear, dis passionate voice, almost natural again, Epstein began to revive. “It vas self-defense,” he croaked eagerly. He caught at the idea as If It were a life-line, and obviously be gan to drag himself out of a pit with Its help. “It vas self-defense,” he re peated. "You vas fighting, I s’pose. Tha't lets you o u t” “No,” Laurie dully explained, "he wasn’t armed. I thpught he was. I thought he was drawing some weapon.

Bnt no jury will believe th a t of course.” His voice changed and flatted again His young figure seemed to give In the chair, as If Its muscles sagged under a new burden. For a moment he sat silent. “We may as wgll face all the facts,” he went on, at fa st “The one thlnj! I won’t endure Is the horror of(a trial." ''But you’ll get off,” choked Epstein “it’s self-defense—It’s—It’s—” “Or a brain storm, or temporary In sanity!” Laurie interrupted. “No, old chap, that Isn't good enough. No padded cell for me! And I’m not go ing to have my name dragged througii the courts and the case figuring in the newspapers for months. I’ve got a rea son I think you will ail admit is a good one.” Again his voice changed. “That would break my sister’s heart,” he ended brokenly. At the words Bangs uttered an odd sound, half a gasp and half a groan. Epstein, again In his pit of wretched ness, caught i t “Now you see the job ve’ve done!'' he muttered. “Now you see how ve looked after him, like she told us to!" Bangs paid no attention to him. “What^ are you going to do?” ho .heavily asked Laurie. “I’ll tell you, on one condition— that you give me your word, all three of you, not to try in any way to In terfere or to prevent It You couldn’t, anyway, so don’t make the blunder oi trying. You know what I’m up against. There’s only one way out.” He looked at1 them In turn. Doris and Epstein merely stared back, with the effect of not taking in what he was saying. But Bangs recoiled. . “No, by G—d!” he cried. “No! No!" Laurie went on as if he had not spoken.. “I promised Perkins to be in my rooms at eight o’clock tomorrow morn ing,” he muttered, and they bad to strain their ears to catch the words. “I did not promise to be—alive.” This time It was Doris who gasped out something that none of them heard. For a moment Laurie sat Silent In his chair, watching her with a. strange Intentness. Then, in turn, ,his black eyes went to the faces of 'B angs anil: Epstein. " Huddled in the big' chair he occupied, the manager sat looking straight before him, his ey«B set In agony, his jaw dropped. He had-the aspect of a man about to have a stroke. Bangs sat leaning for ward, staring at the floor. The re maining color had left bis face. He appeared to have wholly forgotten the presence of others in the room. He was m uttering something to himself, the same thing over and over and over: “And It’s all up to us. It’s—all—up —to—us.” For an Interval which none of the three ever forgot Laurie watched the tableau. Then, rising briskly, he os tentatiously stretched himself, and In loud, cheerful tones answered Rod. ney’s steady babble. “Yes, old chap, it’s all up to you,” he/said, “So what do you think of this as a climax for the play?” Grinning down at his pal, he waited for a reply. It did not come. Epstein was still unable to speak or move. Doris seemed to have heard the words without taking them In. ,-But at last Bangs rose slowly, groped his way to his chum as If throtigh a fog, and, catching him by the shoulders, looked wildly into his eyes. “You mean—you mean,” he stut tered at last, “that—that—this—was— all—a—hoax?” “Of course It was,” LaurIe admitted, In his gayest voice. “It was the cli m ax of the hoax you have played on me. An hour, ago Shaw confessed to me how you three arranged this whole plot of Miss Mayo’s adventure, so that I should be kept out of mischief and should think I was having an adven ture myself. I thought a little excite ment was due'you In return. How do you like my climax, anyhow? Pretty fair, I call I t” He stopped short Rodney had loosened his grip on his shoulders and stumbled to a chair. Now, his arm on the back and his head on his arm, his body shook with the relentless ,con vulsion of a complete nervous collapse. Epstein had produced a handkerchief and was feebly wiping his forehead. Doris seemed to have ceased to breathe. Laurie walked over to her. took her hands, and drew them away from her face. Even yet, she seemed not to'understand. ‘Tm sorry,” he said, very gently. 4T ye given yon three an awful jolt. Bnt I think you will all admit that there was something coming to you You’ve put me through a pretty bad week. I decided you could endurp half an hour Of^'reprisal.” None of the three answered. None of the three could. But, In the incan descent moments that followed,'.the face of Epstein brightened slowly, like a moon emerging from black clouds. Bangs alone, who had best borne the situation np till now, was unable to meet the reaction.

Old Pictures May Be Work of Egyptians According to a report from South Africa, two men searching for cattle In Rhodesia found some queer-looking pictures painted in a shallow cave un der a boulder. They sent photographs of the pictures to Dr. S. P. Impey1 a South African authority on rock paint ings, who pronounced them specimens of Egyptian art. “There are hundreds of crude bushman paintings In caves all over South Africa,” declared Doc tor Impey, “but these are clearly of a different technique from anything discovered before. There are 11 fig ures, apparentfy m instrels, playing stringed instrum ents unknown to buskmen. In the cave is a large rock where the artist m ust have rested, using a long brush to reach the roof. The painted figures wear Egyptian costumes, while bushmen’s figures are always unclothed.”—Pathfinder Mag azine.

Caldwell, of Montlcello, B I, a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel th at so many constipated lnfeints and children had to be kept “stirred up” and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty ,-oils.

By ELMO SCOTT WATSON N SUNDAY, May 8,' the heart of America will be quietened at the thought of one word — “Mother.” For that t is Mother’s day, JL v J l an 'annual event which is W ** generally observed, not b.v Presidential proclamation1, legislative enactm ent or church dictum, but because sentim ent decrees that the second Sunday In May of each yesir shall be the day upon which we honor the women who gave us birth. Mother’s day tills year has a special significance because of at least two distinct projects which are under way to honor one of the most heroic types ■of motherhood the world has ever known—the pioneer mother of Amer ica. And In both cases the honoring will be done in memorials of everlast ing bronze. One of them is the announced pur pose of E. W. Marland, an Oklahoma oil millionaire, of erecting a heroic statue of “The Pioneer Wuffian" on the famous Cherokee Strip In, Okla homa, the last government land opened to homesteaders. Twelve of the leading sculptors of America have submitted models from which he is to select one for the completed work. An exhibit of these models is being sent to various cities throughout the Mid dle W est and F ar W est and the public is to be given a chance, by popular vote In each city, to aid Mr. M arland in making his selection, by which, It Is hoped, the ,model best interpreting the pioneer woman will be chosen. “The Pioneer Mother” is to be Im m ortalized in bronze In another west ern city when the monument by ,that name (shown In the illustration above) la unveiled In' Penn Valley park In Kansas City this spring. This monu m ent is the work of A. Phim lster Proc tor, noted for his statue of Col. Theo dore Roosevelt as a Rough Rider, which stands In Portland, Ore., as well es for several other fine pieces of work, in other cities. It will be pre sented to Kansas City by Howard Vari- derslice, who, as a baby, was carried in tbe arm s of his pioneer mother from Kentucky over a westward trail to the Indian lands of Kansas, in just such a manner as that depicted - In Proctor’s statuary group. , It is especially appropriate that this memorial should stand In Kansas City w ith’the face of the pioneer mother turned to the great trans-M issouri W est For the site of Kansas City is historic ground. In this vicinity were the eastern term ini of two great high ways—the Santa Fe trail and the Ore gon trail—over which the stream of emigration poured into the last Ameri can wilderness. The Santa Fe trail was prim arily an artery of commerce, but the Oregon trail was a homeseek- er’s highway to the gold fields of Cal- fornia and to the rich valleys of Ore gon and W ashington. The epic of the Oregon traij has been w ritten many times and In many different ways so that the picture of the women of the “Covered Wagon" era is a& clear In our minds as that of the men of those days.

Tribune. 11 M I-H -11I11' !"B -H -1H 111 V-U -: push of the dominant white race. His tory Is full of the'pioneer fathers, but, except for a few outstanding incidents and personages, it has said little about the pioneer mothers. To trace-their history ItjJs necessary to go ,back 300 years to the first settlements on the "“stern and rock-bound coast” of New England and to remember that every privation, every suffering from cold and hunger, every danger from hostile red men which the Pilgrim Fathers endured, was also endured by the Pil grim Mothers. The first American frontier was the gloomy woods which f ringed the shore of the Atlantic seaboard and held the first settlers close to the w ater’s edge. This first frontier produced the Amer ican frontiersm an, one of the hardiest types mankind has ever known. And It produced, too, the’ American fron- tierswoman who was a At mate for such a man. She did her share in mak ing a home and when it was necessary she could handle the rifle and the a s to defend that home. Who has not heard the' oft-repeated tale of Hannali Dinstin (or Dustan) the M assachusetts heroine of King Philip’s w ar In New England who proved w ith her .good right arm the heroic quality of the pioneer mother defending her chil dren? When the frontier was pushed back to the summit of the Appalachian mountains the pioneer m other stood beside her man and looked down into the fertile Ohio valley and saw with him the vision of their future home. She. also faced the unknown terrors of the “Dark and Bloody Ground” of Kentucky and helped him hold It against the frenzied attem pts of the Indians to eject the white m an from his best-loved hunting ground. In U iat'd a rk period of 20 -years—from the putbreak of the Revolution to the time of “Ma3 Anthony” W ayne’s vic tory over the confederated tribes of the Northwest—when the fate of the white settlem ent in the Mississippi val ley hung in the balance, it was the pioneer woman quite as much as the pioneer man who decided the issue. But not all of the courage of the pioneer m other was shown when It came to a hand-to-hand encounter. So long as Kentuckians repeat the stories heard a t their mothers’ knees, so long will they tell of the women of Bryant’s Station. These were the women who, when the station was surrounded by Indians, volunteered to go to a spring nearby and bring the w ater which the defenders of the fort would need so badly when the battle began. The In dians were “lying low” preparing for a surprise attack. If the men went for w ater the attack would be precipitated. If the women w ent as usual, the sav ages MIGHT refrain from revealing their presence by attacking the wa ter-bearers. Again they might apt. It was a fearful chance those women took. But they took it, walked steadily down to the spring, conscious all the time of snake-Uke eyes glittering at them from the bushes close at hand, filled their buckets and walked stead ily back to the safety of the stockaded walls. And they didn't spill a drop of w ater I That was the type of courage these pioneer m others possessed. But hostile Indiansw ere not thg only terror which the pioneer m other faced and conquered. She faced and con quered the terrors of loneliness In Isolated cabins, of starvation, of bit ter w inters and sultry summers, whose stagnation brought sickness and death to her and her family w ith no doctors within' hundreds of miles. Too often was it true that My m o t h e r she w a s m e r r y and brave, A n d so she c a m e to her labor W i t h a tall green Ar for a doctor grave A n d a stream for a comforting neighbor. “T h e Ballad of William S y c a m o r e ”— Benet. W hen the American frontier crossed the Mississippi and the last, westward push began, In the forefront of that long line of historic figures which make up the splendid pageant of the W est was the figure which dominates, the group by Proctor—the figure of the pioneer mother, her baby In her arms and her face turned toward the west. Forgetful of the terrors she had known In the forests of the East, she braved the terrors of the great plains and mountains ■, of the West. Flooded rivers, prairie fires, snow-filled moun tain passes, Indian attacks, hunger and thirst and sickness could not hold her back. H er face was turned to the .west and when she had followed the “star of empire” to her goal she had helped build a nation. (B y R E V . R B . F IT 2 W A T E B .

Peter and John a t the Empty. Tomb (John 20:l-i0). John does not enter Into a descrip tion of the resurrection of Christ or attem pt a proof other than that the tomb was empty and that Jesus had repeatedly manifested Himself to the disciples after the tomb had been found empty. ... 1. How they came to know (^r. I, 2). The inform ation was brought by Mary Magdalene out of WhomlJesns had cast seven demons (M ark 16:9, Luke S:2). Prompted by love for Him she went early to the tomb, “while it was yet dark,” “she was last at the cross and first at the grave, she stayed longest there and was soonest here.” Her love for Jesus was genuine, though her knowledge of His resur rection was defective. She could not rest till sh e h a d done her utm ost for Him because'she realized that great good had come to her from His hands. The reason we work so little for the Lord is that we have such a dim sense of His saving grace. 2. Their investigation (w . 3-10). The news of the empty tomb, which M ary brought with breathless baste, so moved John and Peter that they both ran to investigate.. Dpon arrival at the tomb John 'gazed upon it, but Peter entered itj Johol with holy rev erence, hesitates. Peter, with impul siveness, enters the tomb at once. Their respective actions are not to be explained on the basis of degrees of love for the Lord, but to tem peram ent. Tlie investigation convinced them. Th® removal of the sfcone from the sep ulcher, the arrangem ent of the grave- clothes all convinced them that It bad cot been. done, by an enemy. II. The Charge of the,R isen Lord to Peter (John 2 1 :15-I7). Jesus put to Peter the thrice repeat ed question,'“Lovest tbon me?” Then He gave him a commission. This shows that supreme love to Christ is the one essential qualification for serving Him. Love is the spring from, which all Christian activity flows. iHe asked, also, to show - that there are three classes in the church which demand care and attention. These three classes need special care and food. 1. Feed my iambs, (v. 15.) This first charge relates to thoso who are beginning the Christian life —the babes in Christ. The word “feed" means m ore/ than • instruc tion. It means In- addition to in struction that proper, surroundings, influences and examples should, be provided. As a Christian minister, Peter was to be an example, provide the proper surroundings and' do the proper teaching for the young Chris tians, those Just beginning the Chris tian life. 2. Tend my sheep (v. 16). . This charge shows a different class. It means to shepherd the- sheep. It has application to the m ature class of Christians. The duty enjoined therefore is to care for., those who have passed out of their childhood in to m aturity. He must feed the sheep, give them proper instruction, guide them, lead them and discipline them. For this m inistry the essientlal quali fication is love. 3. Feed my sheep (v. 17). The implication here Is that Peter was, charged with the responsibility of-'-caring for aged Christians. The word “feed” Is much tbe same as In the first case. It means that for the aged Christians the Instruction ought to be such as will be suited to their needs. This needs special emphasis today because much attention is given to the yoywg people, but Id many In stances the old people are neglected.- III. Follow Me (w . 18-23). In verse 18 Is given a clear proph- ecy concerning Peter’s death. It was to be by crucifixion. Pete? once shrank from the cross, but now the Lord holds it up before him. It is not the Lord’s death on the cross, but Peter’s own. He teaches here that the Christian’s aeath Is for the glory of God. . W hatever, may be before as, even the cruel cross, the- Lord’s com- mand is to follow Him. OurHope Our hope lies qpt In the absence of danger, but In the presence x>t Christ, who is able to control the storm. No church with Christ In it ran be wrecked or lost- More of the living Christ, more of His love,-of His teach- lag.—W estern Recorder. • Costs Self-Denial To keep In good grace' with one’s own self often-costs self-denial but It pays a, mighty dividend.—H erald of Qospel Liberty. > “ Look for these sytnptt . your child-—gritting C u picking the nostrils M dered stomach.

Two of the three principals have disclosed the circumstances under .which Mary Vickery, sixteen years old, disappeared.

She broke a silence that has kept Dabney In prison for more than a year. “I disappeared from home because I was not happy with the home life with myj father and stepmother,” she said. "I had Condy Dabney take me in an automobile to a country railroad sta tion. He left me there and drove a why. I took the train to Cincinnati, Ohio, where I worked In a woolen mill. Accusing Woman Is Held. “I heard about Dabney being charged with killing me, but I didn’t w ant tp be taken back home. So I kept still and did not reveal that I was still alive. I stood it as long as I could and then decided to make it kno^n that I was alive so Dabney could be, set free.” From his prison cell, just before he w as pardoned by the governor, Dab-, ney told his story. He attributed his trouble to a chance acquaintance with M arie Jackson, with whom he had several "dates.” He said that at his trial Marie Jackson swore against him because he would-not leave his wife and go with her. She is charged with testifying that she was with Dabney when he killed the Vickery girl. Be cause of this false testimony she Is now being held. Two Dogs Saoe Child From Calm-Pile Death Scranton, Pa.—Missing from home overnight, Billy Joyce, four years old, son of a real estate broker, was res cued alive when two faithful dogs that had been by his side 15 hours led’ Charles Haas, a laborer, to a culm pile in Dunmore in which the missing youngster was burled up to his neck. The soft culm was gradually pulling him down. While the police of Scranton and Dunmore were conducting a search, the boy’s two doya, barking excitedly, came up to H&as. The dogs pulled on the laborer’s coat, it is said, and he followed them to the dump. It was evident, authorities said, that the dogs had tried, to drag the child out of the culm that was engulfing him during the night.

Garibaldi A STOCKY, bearded man was ar rested on a charge of so-called treason. He was Giuseppe Garibaldi, son of a poor Italian fisherman, and himself a sailor by occupation. In 1834, when only twenty-seven, he Joined the “Young Italy” society, was implicated In a plor-to free his country from the Austrian yoke, and was condemned to death. "This ends your career, my friend,“ remarked one consolatory Jailor. “You are mistaken,” retorted Gari baldi,’coolly. "My destiny is not ful filled. Italy’s not yet free. I shall live.” He made good his words by escap ing from prison. He found his way to South America, where he plunged at once Into the warfare that convulsed that continent, and repeatedly won fame by his efforts In behalf of the weaker side. H e was taken prisoner by the Brazilian government, escaped, eloped with a beautiful Creole, suc cessively picked up a living as cattle man, ship broker and teacher of mathe matics, organized an Italian legion and served as naval commander for Monte video in the latter’s war with Buenos Ayres. Then he returned to Italy and, raising a body of irregular troops, again harried the Austrians. Italy was divided into a number of independent and semi - Independent principalities, Including a group of states under the direct temporal rule of the pope. But" the northern part of the country was in Austria’s hands, while nearly all of it was more or less under Austrian domination. Austria bullied and oppressed the hapless land cruelly. As a result, Mazzini and other patriots formed a horde of secret so cieties with the hope of freeing their downtrodden fatherland and joining its separate states into one strong union. In 1830, 1834 and at other times revolts sprang up, only to be crushed with an Iron hand. The Carbonari, “Young Italy” and similar patriotic leagues continued their efforts, and In 1848 Garibaldi and his fellow revolutionists captured Rome, forcing the pope to fly to Gaeta, They formed a republic In which Gari baldi and Mazzini were supreme. But Napoleon HI (who had earlier pledged his support to the revolutionists) sent a French army to the pope’s aid. Gari baldi gallantly held Rome against the stronger foe for thirty days, but was at last forced to evacuate the city. Again Garibaldi was forced to flee fr(>m Italy. H e now came ^to New York, where he remained for over a. year, working as a candle m aker and liv ing on Staten island. L ater he was captain of a Pacific merchantman. In 1854 he returned to Italy and bought a farm on the island of Cap- rero, off the Sardinian coast. But he was not allowed to remain long in se clusion. Charles Albert, kiDg of Sardinia, had striven to shake off the Austrian yoke, but was beaten, 1849, at Novara. Heartbroken, he abdicated on the field of battle in favor of his son, Victor Emmanuel, duke of Savoy (grandfa ther of the present king of Italy), a man of simple tastes, who preferred mountaineering and hunting to the pomp of state. Italy was now at low est ebb. But for Victor Emmanuel and Garibaldi it might still be In semi slavery to foreign power. But in 1S59 Victor Emmanuel, refusing Austria’s command to disarm his little kingdom, made an alliance with Napoleon HI. Together at Solferina, Magenta and elsewhere they Inflicted terrific defeats on Austria, and won the war, the great province of Lombardy being ceded to Sardinia, while Victor Emmanuel, In payment, turned over his own ances tral duchy of Savoy to France. The tide had turned. Other principalities— Bologna, Tuscany, Pargia, Modena and Romagna (the last-fiamed being .one of the “papal states”)—annexed them selves to Sardinia. The pope promptly excommunicated everyone concerned In the reform. Garibaldi left his seclusion and, with 1,000 “red-shirt men,” invaded Sicily. In less than three months he had freed the Island. He was ac claimed a hero on his return to Italy, but refused all gifts and honors and went quietly back to his farm. The freeing of Sicily and lower Italy by Garibaldi caused the fail of the king of Naples, an oppressor and foe to lib erty and lopped off more papal prov inces. Thus by 1861 all Italy, with the exception of VenetIa and the few re maining papal provinces, was a united kingdom under Victor Emmanuel’s rule. In 1866, when Prussia and Italy fought Austria, Venetia was ceded to Italy; and In 1870, when the Franco- Prussjan w ar caused the withdrawal of French troops from ’ Rome, Victor Emmanuel annexed the last of th e. papal states, guaranteeing spiritual In dependence to the pope and himself becoming first king of the free and united Italy. Garibaldi, meantime, had won fresh fame by Invading the Tyrol In the war of. 1866, and had fought gallantly In the Franco-Prussian war. Still de clining the office, ranks and honors tendered him, he returned to his inland farm, where, crippled- and broken In health, he died In 1882. . - This man of the people was the cen tral and most picturesque figure In the long struggle for Italian liberty, and was also the Nineteenth century’s highest type of disinterested patriot The open mind GENERAL MOTORS has an open mind.

Shuford Wins Again. From The Hickory Record. The fine Jersey cow bred by Bob Shnford never finish with with winning prizes. Under a New York date line recently, there appeared a story of his lates winning cow and the following record it has made: “ Red Lady, a pure bred Jersey cow has just completed the highest dairy production record ever made by any cow south of Mason and Dixon line. This new champion produced 1,028 31 pounds of butter- fat and 19,608 pounds of milk in an official 365-day test. This is equi valent* to 1,285 pounds of butter or nearly 10,000 quarts of milk.

Should Act, Not Talk. Last news from the Smith head quarters is that Governor Al is go ing to stop talking about religion and give the the country his views on piohibition. ~ . J ust "'what he can tell vhis fellow countrymon that" they do not al ready know about his attitude to ward this issue Is difficult to ima gine. The truth is, nothing that Gov ernor Smith cah_say will have the slightest weight w ith'those who have followed his record on the Ih quor question from the day he en tered public life, through his whole career as a member of the Legis lature of New York State and as Governor of the same State to this good hour. If Al Smith wants to convince the country that he is hot opposed to the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, there is just one .way only for him to do so. He can never ac complish anything by talking. He must act. Fortunately for the people, the Governor of New York is not in position to mislead them concern ing his views on the prohibition question. On the contrary, the position which he occupies at this moment is such as to enable the American public to judge him with unerring accuracy. They are going to judge Smith just as every man ought to be judged—not by his'professions, but by his deeds. - . .• If G overnprSm ith is a sincere friend of the "^JgBtiientfi Amend ment, he can prove it by one me thod and only one. That method is as follows: Let him immediately summon the Legislature of New York to Al bany. Let him present and put through that body an enforcement act placing the State of New York squarely behind the Eighteenth A mendment. And in compliance., with that act let him put State of ficers to work in co operation with the Federal officers cleaning up the bootleggers and rumrunners of New York City, with particular at tention to the East Side. When Smith does this,, then will the people of America have reason to believe that he has undergone a change of heart on Prohibition en forcement. Until he does this, all his statements and professions and appeals on this issue -will be as sounding brass and tinkling cym bals. Sm ith’s whole record is wet. His record is one of open and brazen defiance of the Constitution of the United States. As Governor of New York he has put that State on record as refusing to co-operate with the Federal Government in the enforcement of the law against the liquor traffic. No matter what he says, no sin cere friend of the Prohibition cause in this country can think of sup porting him for any public office until he changes his record. The time for Al Smith to talk on the Prohibition question" "passed long ago. His job is to act. "And no man in all American is jn better position to act than is he at this moment as head of the law en forcement forces of the .wettest State in the Union.-—Winston Jour nal. ' v A Mayonnaise Attack. A mob attacked a dry 'agent in Baltim oreand broke:a bottle of mayonnaise over .him. You might say that his dressing was-ruined by their dressing. Sa far as we have'been informed, n o public- official who endeavored to havd'the legislature raise his sal ary^ and; failed; has resigned Sacred Things. By Dr. J. W. Holland. When I was a child- I thought that sacred things were all inside our little church: We were taught that certain furniture and objects there were different from the same •things elsewhere. . I am glad that we we so taught, yet the more deeply one gets life the more he finds that sacred things are everywhere. There are many shrines, temples, and sacred places where we delight to go for the thrills that come to us when we stand where some great thing was done. Have you ever thought that we can have the spirit of those sacred places right where we are? I was thrilled at the sight of a sunrise in the Alps. Upon reflection I knew it was the same sunshine that warms my own dooryard. At Ken elworth Castle we were shown-the very wall Where the poet saw the sunlight and wrote “ The sunlight falls on castle walls,” yet it is the. sunshine that tints the peasants cottage. For centuries men hunted for the Holy Grail—the cup used at the Last Supper. I will tell you where it is. It is any cup that bears a drink to a needy one. It may be the guard at tne old well sweep or the tin' cup beside the water bucket in the kitchen. It is great to go and stand where noted people did their duty, and yet, do you know that many thous ands of people have shown the spirit ofJjodsj ajpid_tjie ppyertypnd. trials of life for 40 years, and have never whimpered. : Heroic beauty is always honest duty . . I am sure that I have seen a good half nrle of picture of the Holy Child. They are wonderful, and'I would travel far to see them. Just now I am thinking of the 'millions of happy children who are also sa cred little beings. In their bright faces God is, and in their faces is a beauty that artists cannot paint.. Children are never brats to me, but sotfls capable of djvine things. Think of childred. as passible an gels rather than as probable devils, and we can m^ke a better w.orld. Love, friendship,-hope, faith— these are all around us, and niay be a constant part of us. - Well does the poet Riiey say, “ Right at home is where glory is.” —Ex.

The farm population of the U- nited States decreased 649,000 per sons last year accordiug to estiinat es by the Bureau , of Agricultural Economics, U. S. Departmtnt of Agricultural.1 This is said to be the biggest decrease in ' any year since 1920 and here is^more food for thought. ' " There has been -a good deal of discussion in recent years about the shift from the farms to the towns. Consideiable lamentations have as cended to the heavens, chiefly from those who were already in towns. W hat objection they had to the farm exodus is not clearly known and possibly they didn t have, any real objection but just thought they did. Sometimes the critics alleged that if the.farmers.kept on leaving the farms that there wouldn't be enough left to feeci tho; e who work in the offices and factories and the mines and everywhere else. They also claim occasionally that the prices of foodstuffs are already too high and that, they will go high still if people keep on leaving the farms. It is clear enough that men work on farms for the- purpose of making a living fot themselves and fami lies just as the do;at fishing, manu facturing, ..merchandising, practic ing law, publishing newspapers and a thousand and one other things Folks do not farm for sentiment or fun-or to accomodate other people. Farming is a definite way of mak ing a ,living,! a business in fact. .Some people.-make ' considerable money at it, some inanageto exist and others do neither. When ’a man finds after some years of hard work that he is doing no good at farming, that he is slippinng back it is quite natural he should look for something else to - do. If he finds a better job he generally takes it an.d would be and a fool if he didn't. IiiTeceut years there has been considerable complaint that farm ing is not profitable and that -the government ought to do something about it. That complaint is not new though we have heard it ever since we could remember. Most of the tim e.it’ has been true too, that is for a great many fanners. There are some farmers who always seem to be able to make a profit. They are exceptional but success ful men are exceptional in all busi ness. In this cohection it would be interesting to known how farm failures compare with other kinds of failures. We do not know that it is true, but. have heard it stated that more than ninety percent of those who go; into the mercantile business either fail or stop business after a few years. We all know that there are plenty, of "failures in every business, every trade, ■■ every profession and every walk' of life Somehow we hear about farming troubles than any thing else. Mey- be it is because so many people are engaged in it and because it is basic industry, an indispensable one. _ The great improvements in farm ing methods and farm machinery have increased the productive ca, pacity of the farmers and the farm lands. The wheat, the corn, the hay, the tobacco and othei products that the population of the world de mands can be supplied now more easily than Ifjey could fifty years ago. ImprovJed now more easily than they could- fifty years- ago.- Improved transportation: facilities have a great deal to do with this too. So if a go'od many,people are leaving the farms and engaging in other pursuits' it does not matter much'. The law of supply and.de- mand will regulate the situation. Ifj the demand for foodstuffs and other j products shoots the prices tip more I people" will engage; in farthing, • When more farm stuff is raised S han the world heeds it is perfec&y natural that prices should be lbw. Demagogues who pretent to thhik that the Federal Governuient ought to control farm prices deserve ;u'o praise whatever. They are really enemies to the farmer because they are advocating an unsound theory. Each man will have to (solve his own problems. If he feeis that Ihh has a chance for success le t' him stick to his farm. Otherwise its as probably best for him to hunt otlj^r work We believe through tbftt opportunities tor successful farm ing are as good here in Cartefet county as in any part of the coun- try.—-Ex. ■ Bus Line For Negroes.

Governor Ay- cocki the silver-tongued orator would have been horrifled at such . a-scene as was witnessed in Ral eigh, had he been alive. As a result of the great flood in the Mississippi Valley which has covered much territory . in six of the cotton growing states, the price of cotton has been advancing for the past few weeks, and is bringing around 16 cents a pound. As the cotton planting season is at hand in this section the growers should think twice before putting out a big acreage. There is enough cot ton left over from the 1925-26 crop to supply this country for at least Another year if not a single bale Was produced this year. The price of-cotton is not going to be high this year if a big crop is produced. Tjhe' farmer who puts out a little cotton, tobacco and other money cropsi and grows hogs, cattle, thickens, grain, etc., is going to be the lucky man. I Not Sheriffs Fault. •-■The Record this week is carrying the names of several hundred peo ple who failed to pay. their taxes prior' to May 9th. Some people may be blaming the sheriff or the county commissioners for this ac tion, but neither party is to blame. The’1527 legislature passed a law that; all taxes for the year 1926 should be paid on or before May 1st, or failing in this, the commis sioners should instruct the sheriff to" advertise the real estate four weeks preceding the first • Monday in June, wheu lands must be sold to satisfy the tax. Shiriff Cope gave the taxpayers of Davie coun ty "longer than' some sheriff’s for all who paid their taxes by the 9th of this 'monta, were not advertised. The sheriff don’t like to advertise your land, but he is forced to do this orsuffer a fine or imprisoment. ;-ite ^ f r ying ,'to do his duty and o K ^ th e law.- If you feel con strained to cuss somebody about this anattjer you can take your wrath -out on the legislative body that forced the sheriff to sell your land.. Tornadoes Kill Many. Two hundred people were killed and more than a thousand were injured by tomatoes in Ark ansas, Missouri, Texas and Kan sas Monday. Election Quiet Affair. ■rTuesday was a quiet day in this city despite the fact that it was- election day. There was only one ticket in the field, which was com posed of Democrats throughout, with the exceptibn of j.; F. Moore, one-of the school trustees, who w?s put on the ticket at the Democratic convention. This board is always composed of four Democrats and one Republican. A. Hi Cozart, a Democrat, came out Tuesday morn ing as an independent Democratic candidate for alderman. He re ceived 70 votes. Out of a registra tion of around 500, only 177 votes were cast, showing that, two-thirds of the tax-payers of the town are willing for one-third of the people to say who shall run the town and make the laws for the entire popu lation. It is a shame that such conditions exist. A t least 400 vo ters should have participated in this election. The ,city treasurer informs ns that the town is in debt about $180,000. Something will have to be done soon in' regard to a better water supply for the town. This means that at leajst another $50,000 debt will have tb be put on the town for a sufficienti water sys tem. Thousands of dollars have been invested in deep wells which have had to be abandonfed. A big mistake was made by not going to some near by creek for ^vater when the system was first installed. An other important question to be set tled by the new board is whether or not the city will sell -its electric power to the Southern Public Utili ties Co. A large number of the people of the town want an elec tion called so the majori-ty can ex press themselves on this question. The new board elected Tuesday are going to haveltheir hands full. As a prominent Democrat used to re mark while running for sheriff, we are going to Mdeal gently” with the board just elected,! and give them a chance to furnish us plenty of pure water, get the town out of debt and reduce the tax; rate. The Democrats are iunningi the town and they should have the credit for any good thing that they accom plish. Following is the ticket that was elected Tuesday: : , • School Trustees—J. j F. Moore, R,„B. Sanford. Mayor A. A. Holleman. Aldermen—C. B. Mooney, T. M. Hendrix,; S. M. Call, J. T.* Baity, J. C.

Two-legged' chickens in Davie county are going to be listed for taxes in the future, according to an edict of -the:county commission ers at their meeting last week. If we have been informed; correctly, all growq chickens, both feminine and masculine, are to be listed at 50 cents each;- provided! the owner of said chickens has a flock of more than fifty of these Methodist appe tizers. This new ruling will not affect the small farmer or the town folks who raise a few chickens to be used tor home constitution, af ter the said chickens have consum ed all nearby gardens. AU biddies are exempt. Better count your chickens before the tax-lister gets around. The man who owns 100 chickens over the- exemption, un der the present tax rate, will only have to pay 70c. pier year taxes on the chickens. New Road Chairman.

OVEBlIISfiG OF ENGINE MMFOL It May Mean Some Mechani cal DifSculJy or Lack of Water. Fever in a human being may indi cate merely some digestive disturb ance, or it may be the symptom of a serious, deep-seated disorder. An over heated automobile engine may mean only that you need.m ore w ater in the radiator, or it may be thp sigh ot some grave mechanical difficulty. •_ A great many motorists think th at a fresh supply of w ater will always act as a cure for an overheated engine This Is not true when the overheating has progressed to the stage where it injures the cylinders, pistons and bearings. 5 W hat Overheating May Do. F or example; bearings will crack if subjected to treuendous heat. H eatl c'auses oil to lose its lubricating pow ' er,- and therefore great heat inay cause frictional scoring of the cylinder walls and wearing of the pistons. On the other hand, overheating may .mean that your radiator is leaking water, that you have forgotten to fill it, or that it is clogged with sediment from dirty water. It may mean that you have been driving for a long dis- stance in first or second speed, or that the fan belt is not at proper ten sion to give an adequate cooling draft. If overhearing occurs on the road, do not keep on driving, but stop and Investigate. Filling up the cooling system with cold w ater after the en gine has. cooled somewhat will afford tem porary .relief. Try .to find the cause of the overheating—whether it is.-entirely due to the.cooling system, or w hether it has. some other mechan ical basis. If You Must Go On. ,,W hen It is absolutely necessary to continue the journey, overfeed the en gine with oil. Thjs will cause y to give off volumes-of smoke through the exhaust, bu t-th e additional oil will protect the cylinders and pistons. In case you cannot get either w ater or oil, and-cannot find the cause of the oyerheating, telephone the nearest g a-. rage and w ait for help to arrive., As a general precaution, always keep the radiator of your car full of water, and make sure that it is wa tertight. v' Dangerous Practice to ^ Stop for Ride Beggars Kind-hearted motorists are warned against being too liberal in /giving people rides, in 'a bulletin issued by the National Safety council, which says: , It often is dangerous to stop for pe destrians who want a ride. Sometimes these beggars are hoid-up men.. It is bad taste to pick up. girls. In some cities the police .arrest autoists who get companions this way. . School children who stand in the roadway, 'begging rides to and from school, may be'-hit by machines or stumble or slip and fall beneath the wheels of the is r which has stopped for them. One Traffic Trick That Does Not P ay The habit of accelerating the engine when standing In traffic with, the idea of making sure that it’s running is as annoying as it is unnecessary. Watch the ammeter. Just as long as the needle settles down to a calm discharge reading, the engine has stalled. Accelerating the en gine not only ^w astes gas, but makes it uncomfortable for oth er motorists. Even where the driver hesitates to trust the am m eter the practice of setting the throttle for a little, faster idling speed is preferable to the habit of interm ittently racing the engine. Hand Signal for Motor Truck With Closed Cab For trucks having closed cabs a traffic signal of the'kind shown will De found ,useful.

Wheu a left turn is about to be made, the, cord is. pulled and the white glove will rise into plain sight to tlie left of the cab, as indicated in the illustration.—E. T. Gunderson, Jr., Humboldt, Iowa, in Popular Mechanics Mc^azine. Railroad Mileage Now Exceeded by Motor Bus Railroad m ileage^ In' the United States now is exceeded by motor bus (mileage, figures compiled b.v the inter state. commerce commission reveal. The survey was made fh connection w ith the commission’s investigation "erf the development of motor bus trans-. portation in .its'.delation to ,the rail roads. ... ' ' Prelim inary reports show that 22,- 368 busses are In operation as common carriers in line and term inal service. The mileage they cover is placed at 352,800, which Is considerably greater than Vhaf of the railway lines.: In makiDg public the figures,' tlie commission explains that, they are not complete in every detail. Oil Will Maka Steering . Easier for Car Drivers Steering has been made marvelously easy, but the driving feature still re quires most of a car owner’s energy— that is, he Is continually busy a t .this particular-job. An interesting thought in connection with this fact is tha't tliievpoint most frequently ignored In the lubrication of a car is the top of the steering wheel. Oil here ,means a great' deal 6f energy conservation when trying to put the car into a narrow parking space, 'i t also -serves /to eliminate one of the most annoying or whlstles ’in- the machine.

WND Service CHAPTER XVII —22— . , ’ A Little Look Forward “So Shaw told you!” m uttered .Ep stein a few moments later. “You bet he did!” Laurie blithely corroborated. “He had to, to save his. skin. But he was pretty game, Tll give him credit for that. I had to Qre one shot past his head to con vince him that I m eant business. Be sides, I had said, I thought he was reaching for something. I suppose I •was a little nervous. Anyway, we clenched again, and—well—I’d have killed him, I giiess, if he hadn’t spoken.” He smiled reminiscently. AlJ three were tactfully ignoring Bangs, who had walked over to the window and by the exercise of all his will-power was now getting his nerves-under control. “Shaw didn’t do .the -tale justice, he hadn’t tim e to,” Lahrie continued, “and I was In such a hurry to get back to Miss Mayo that I didn’t ask for many details. B ut on the way to the garage it occurred to me that I had a chance for a come-back that would keep you three from feeling too smug and happy over the way I had gulped down your little plot. So I planned it, and I rather think,” he added complacently, “that I put it over.”v h“Put It over!” groaned Epstein. “Mein Gott, I should think you did put it over! Tou took twenty years ofE my life, young m an; that’s von sure thing.” “You’ll revive.” Laurie turned to Rodney, who was now facing them. “AU right, old man?” “I guess so," gulped Rodney. There was no self-consciousness In his man ner. “ H e had passed through blaz ing hell In the last twenty ^minutes, and he did not care who knew it s “Then,” urged Laurie, seeking to divert him, “you may give me the details Shaw had to skip. How the dickens did you happen to start this frameup, anyhow?" “How much did Shaw tell you?” Rodney tried to speak naturally. “That the whole adventure was a plant you and Epstein had fixed up to. keep me out of mischief,” Laurie re peated, patiently. “He explained that you had engaged a company to put it over, headed by Miss' Mayo, who is a friend of Mrs. Ordway, and who has a burning ambition to go on the stage. He said you promised her that if she made a success of it, she was to have the leading role In our next play. That’s about all he told me.” "T hat’s all I know,” ended Laurie. "But I w ant to know some more. Whose bright little idea was this, in the. first place?” “Mrs. Ordway’s.” “Louise’s I” Unconsciously Laurie’s face softened. , “Yes. I went to' see her one day,” Bangs explained, “and I mentioned that we couldn’t get any work out of you till you’d had the adventure you were insisting on; Mrs. Ordway said, ’Well, why don’t you" give him an . adventure?’ That,” confessed Rodney, “started me off.” “Obviously,” corroborated his friend. “So it was Louise's idea. Poor Louise I- I hope she got some fun out of it.” “You bet she did I” corroborated Bangs, eagerly. “I kept her posted every day. She said it-w as more fun than , a play, and that it was keeping here alive.” “Humph I Well, go on. Tell me how it started.*! Laurie was smiling. If the little episode just ended had been, as it were, a bobolink singing to Louise Ordway during her final days on earth, it was not he who would find fault with the bird or with those who had set' it pinging. “The day we saw the caretaker In the window across the - park,” con- tinufed Ro'dney, “aDd I realised how interested you were, it occurred, to me that we’d engage that; studio and put Miss Mayo Into it: Miss Mayo lives in Richmond, Vatli and she had been making a big hit in am ateur theatricals. She wanted to get on the legitim ate stage, as Sbaw told you.; so Mrs. Ordway suggested that Ep stein and I try her out—” “Never mind all that!” interrupted Laurie. “Perhaps later Miss Mayo will tell me about It herseli!” "Now, w hat I m eant to do was this » Bodney spoke briskly. He was recovering poise.w ith extraordinary ’ rapidity. H is colorjlwas returning, his brown eyes were again full of life. Aid, as always when his thoughts were on his work;, Jie was utterly ob livious to anj. other interest “The second act was to be—” / • H e stopped and stared. Epstein had risen, had ponderously approached him, and had resolutely grasped him by one ear. * . "Rodney," said the manager, with ostentatious subtlety, "you* don’t know it, but you got a' date up-town in five minutes.”; -.. . His voice and manner, enlightened tlje obtuse Mr, Bangs. ' "Oh, er—yes,” stammered that yduth, confusedly, and reiuctantly got to his feet. “W ait a minute," said Laurie. "Be fore you ,fellows go, there’s one more little m atter we’ve got to, straighten out.” They turned to him, and at the expression of utter devotion on the two faces the sternness left young Devon's eyes. “I was pretty mad about this business for- a few min utes after Shaw explained it,” he went on. “You folks didn’t have much mercy, you know. You fooled roe to the top of my bent. But now I feel that we’ve at . least broken even.” “Even!, Mejin G ott!’!. repeated Ep stein with , a groan. “You’v e , taken ten years—" “You’ve got back ten already,” the young man blithely reminded him, "That’s fine! As I say; we’re even. But from this time on, one thing must be definitely understood; Henceforth I’m Dot in leading-strings of any kind, however kindly they are put on me. If this association is to continue, there must be no more practical jokes, no more supervision, no more interfer ence with me or my affairs. Is'th a t agreed?” 1 , . “You bet it is!” corroborated Ep stein. Again he wiped his brow. “I can't stand the pace you fellas set,” he admitted. / Bangs nodded. “That’s agreed. You’re too good a boomerang for little Rodney.” “For my part,” continued Laurie, “I promise to get to work on the new play, beginning next Monday.” “You w ill!” the two men alm ost' shouted. “I will. I’ve got to stand by Louise for the next two or three months, and we’ll write the play while I’m doing “You’ll. Make a Man of Me, Doris,” He Shld Brokenly, When He .Could Speak. it. Then, whether America enters the war this spring or not, I’m going to France. But we’ll talk over all.that later. Are°you off?” He 'ushered them to the door. “And it’s all right, boy?” Epstein asked wistfully. “You know how veil ve meant. You ain’t got no hard feel ings about this?” “Not one.” Laurie wrung his hand. Then, wiflr an arm across Rodney’s shoulders, he gave him a bearish hug. “I’ll see you a,little later,” he promised. Rodney suddenly looked self-con scious. > “Perhaps then you’ll give me a chance to /tell you some news,” he suggested, with a mixture of triumph and embarrassment. Epstein’s know ing grin enlightened L auria “Sonya?” he asked eagerly. ' “Yep. Great, isn’t it?” Laurie stared at him. “By Jove, you have been busy!” h e ' conceded. "Between manufactur ing a frame-up for me, and winning a wife, you must have put In a fair ly full week even for you.” His arm tightened round'his chum’s shoulders., “I’m ' delighted, old man,” he ended, seriously. “Sonya is the salt of the earth. Tell hew she has my blessing.” W hen he re-entered the room he found Doris standing in Its center, waiting for him. Something In her pose reminded him of their first mo ments together in that fam iliar set ting. • She had carried off the original scene very well. Indeed, she had car ried off-very well most of the Scenes she had been given. "Laurie—” H er ■ voice trembled. “You have forgiven the others. Can’t you forgive me?’” '' “There’s nothing to forgive,”- he quietly told h e j “You saw a chance and you took i t In the same condi tions, I suppose any other girl would have done the same thing. It’s quite all ,right, and I wish you the best luck In lie world. AVeffl try to make the new play worthy of you.” “You’re not going to forgive me!" she cried. "And—I don’t blame you!” She walked away .from him, and, sinking into the chair Epstein had se recently vacated, sat bendihg for ward, her elbow resting on its broad arm, her chin In her Imnck3It was the pose he'knew , so well and,had loved so much.' • v *■ “Can’t you understand?” she went on “I’ve hated it from the start. I’ve hated deceiving you. You see—I —I. didn’t,know you when I- began. I thought ; it was just a good joke and awfully interesting. Then, when Im et you, and you were so stunning,'al ways; I felt like a beast. I told them; I simply couldn’t, go on, bu.t they coaxed and begged, and told me what it.: would mean to you as well as'to me— They made a big point of that.” He took his favorite position by the mantel and watched her as she talked. “I don’t want the play,” she'cried passionately.' “I wouldn’t appear in it now under any conditions. I don’t want to go on the stage. It was just a notion, an, impulse. I’ve lost it, all of, it,. forever. I’m going back home, to my ,own people and my—own Vir ginia, to—to try to forget all this. Pm going tomorrow.” , “You’re; excited.” said Laurie, sooth ingly. He took her hands and held them. ‘I ’ve put you through a bad half-hour. You understand, of course, th at I wouldn’t have done it if !hadn’t been made to realize that your whole thought; throughout this experiment, has been'of the play, and only of the play.” She drew back and looked at him.’ “W hat do you mean?” “Why—” It was hard to explain, b utjhe blundered on. ‘,‘I mean that, for a little time, I was fool enough to hope that—that—some day yon might care for me. For of course you know, you’ve known all along— that I—love you. But when I got the truth—’’ “You haven’t got the truth.” She was interrupting him, but her face had flashed into flame. “You haven’t had it for one second; but you’re going to get it now. Tm not going to let our . lives be wrecked by any silly misunderstanding.” She stopped, then rushed on. “Oh, Laurie, can’t you see? The only truth that counts between us is that I—I—adore you! _ I have from the very first—almost from the day you came here— Oh, it’s dreadful of you to make me say all this!” She was sobbing now, in his arms. For a Iongj, moment he held her very close and in utter silence. Like Bangs, but in a different way, he was feel ing the effects of a tremendous re action. “You’ll make a man of me, Doris,” he said brokenly, when he could speak. “I’m not afraid to let you risk the effort. And when I come back from France—” “When you com e'back from France you’ll come back to your wife,” she told him steadily. “If you’re going, I’ll m arry you before you go. Then PU w ait and pray, and pray and wait, til! you come again. And you will come back to me,” she whispered. “Something makes me sure of i t ” “I’ll come back,” he promised. “Now, for the first time, I am sure of that, too.” .' • * • * . * • * * ■., Four hours later Mr. Laurence De von,'lingeringly bidding good night to the lady of his heart, was surprised by, a final confidence. “Laurie,” said Doris, holding him fast by one button as they stood to gether ’on the threshold of the little studio,” do you know my real rea son for giving up my ambition to go on the stage?” “Yes. Me,” said young Mr. Devon promptly and brilliantly. “But you needn’t d$> it. I’m not going to be the ball-and-chain type of husband.” " I 'know. But there are reasons within the reason.” She twisted the button • thoughtfully. “It’s - because you’re the real actor In the family. When I remember what you did to the three of us In that murder scene, and so quietly and naturally, without any heroics—” She broke off. “There are seven million things about you that I love,” she ended, “but tbe one I think I love the best of all is this: even in your biggest moments, Laurie darling, you never, !never ‘emote I’ ” CHAPTER XVIII “What About Laurie?” From the New York Sun, January 7, 1919: “Among the patients on the hospital ship Comfort, which arrived yesterday with nine hundred wounded soldiers on board, was Captain Lau rence Devon, of the American flying forces in France. “Captain Devon Is an American ‘ace,’ w ith eleven air victories official ly to >liis credit.

In the coibbat the four German machines were downed and their pilots killed. The Frenchman was badly hurt but eventually recovered. “Captain Devon is well known in American social,and professional life. He is the only son of the late Horace Devqn, of Devondale, Ohio, arid the brother-in-law of Robert J. W arren, of New York. Before the w ar he was a successful playw right Just before sailing for France last year, he mar ried Miss Doris Mayo, daughter of the late General Frederick Mayo; of Richmond, Virginia.

At that time she was very weak. “After the flrat bot tle,” she writes, “I began to feel better and like a new woman after taking six bottles. I recommend it to others and • always keep a bottle In the house.” Mrs. Gust Green of 401 Lincoln Park Boulevard, Rockford, Illinois, found herself in a condition sim ilar to that of Mrs. Kraft.

FOR $500,000,000 Ptoh iClaim for Pay for the Black Hills. Pierre, S, D.—A fortune from the proverbial rich, uncle Is the dream of the Sioux tribes and individuals of South Dakota these days which:is be ing discussed in the tribal councils, on Uie different reservations and among them' as individuals when - they gather, and the rich uncle In this case is “Uncle Sam.”W ith a membership of approximate ly 25,000 in South Dakota Tbey are asking for a quarter of a billion dol lars, on a part of which they are claiming interest as far back as ,1869, and-on all of it since 1889, and the totfil if collectible would be fully a half billion dollars to be distributed among Uie 25,000 Sioux of the state. The claim started several years ago When the tribal councils of the diflfer- entrreservaU ons gathered in general council decided to push a claim for payment ■ for • the Black Hills, which they claim were, taken from; them without any proper treaty agreement and onl’y on signatures of a few-of the head men of the different bands. ■ A fter several unsuccessful attem pts to get under ' way the m atter was taken up by Charles H. Burke, com m issioner, of Indian affairs, In an agreement that the Sioux sijould com pile all the different pending claims which they were making against the government and present them all in one action in the Court of Claims. This was to clear the record of all claims, some of which went back as far as 1852. B ut the principal claims are m ade to date 4rom 1862, and cover their dealings with the whites from that Ume up to 1889. Their principal claim is for jthe Black Hills, which Uiey place at a value of $156,543,740 with interest from 1876. That-w as the year when it was known that gold existed in that territory and whites rushed in, holding possession. L ater a release was secured from the head men of the different bands, but this Uie In dians claim was not a legal and bind ing release of that territory. .

As it passed along the w all-of the room w here,the po litical prisoner was held some of the men who belonged to the secret so ciety of which Da Silva • is Uie su preme head had- informed him of the passage. He gained access to it just before the officials came to take him and 1,500 other .political-prisoners to the Portuguese penal colonies. While the search was going on Da SUva remained hidden in the fortress walls for ten' days, stealing food at night from the prison Kitchen. When every one "supposed th at he was safe beyond the frontier he swam the river, boarded a train and left the country. Two other officers, held as political prisoners and who escaped in the same manner, gave, the secret away.

Rock Springs, W y o .-This city of 10,000 inhabitants in the southwestern part of the state, vies with the metro politan cities of the United States for the crown *of being the most polyglot community of America. Bock Springs is one of the largest cb al.camps of the Rocky Mountain region, and among the miners employed are found representatives of almost every nation of the globe. Fifty-three languages are . spoken" by the residents of the city, and many years ago it became apparent that strenuous, efforts, were in order to cause Rock Springs to be come an integral part of the “melting pot” and not rem ain a hodge-podge of clannishness and factionalism. ‘ Seven. years ago the state of Wy oming and the school authorities of Rock Springs founded a night sehool course fof the foreigners employed in the mines, and it was impressed on the m iners th at it would be to tbeir advantage,to become pupils in this school. Eager to Learn. T hat the advice was heeded’is at-’ tested by the fact that to date more than 900 men and women have gradu ated and have become fluent speakers and readers of the English language, and the element which once made the city a veritable Babel of tongues has, in great measure, been eliminated. , Most of the patrons of the school make' a rush for 'their first citizenship papers as soon as they arrive from other shores,' and for th at reason civics is the principal study taken, but English, also, is one of the m ain fea tures of the preparatory course. . Many Japanese' and Chinese, raSes not adm itted to citizenship. In the United States, are among the students. The Asiatics devote their'efforts prin cipally to the study of civics and Eng lish, the latter study being prized most highly. The Japanese particularly are among the most earnest students of the Americanization school, and one p f these,, a young man, when queried why he was so assiduous in learning the language of a country that de clined to grant him the privilege of becoming one of its citizens replied: “Your country has decided that I may not become a citizen, and th at is your government’s business; I ' have decided to gain a full, knowledge of your language so that I m ay study your constitution, and th at is my busi ness.” ' This was not said in acrimonious manner, but simply was a terse an swer to a direct question. In /the home of this young Japanese no language but English, is spoken. T hevWife, a native of Japan, as is her husband, and the three sons natives of. Rock Springs, never converse' In the lan guage of the island empire across the Pacific. The father, oh another occa sion, said that jvhen his sons grow to' manhood they will become citizens of the United States, being native' born, and that he wanted them to be pre pared in every m anner to be entitled to citizenship. School “Well Supported.: " The Rock Springs school is actively supervised by E. M. Thompson, super intendent of the city schools,. assisted by a staff of other teachers from the city’s schools. F ather Anton Shiffeer, pastor of a Catliollc church, is unre m itting In his work of persuading members of' the numerous foreign races to attend the school regularly, and frequently he actively assists in conducting classes. Fred W. Johnson,1 an attorney, likewise is Suppo1Tting th e , school actively, giving freely his time and knowledge in solving problems brought to him by the students. The closing of the w inter semester of the school was attended by a ban quet and general meeting of all citi zens of the city, and the governor of Wyoming was the principal speaker. He lauded the w ork accomplished and promised his continued'support of the institution. At this . meeting brief speeches were m ade in each of the 53 languages spoken In the city, and then each of . the speakers translated his, effort into English. . Eow-Piiced Concerts ,.

OIL FEVER GRIPS ‘ CANADA PRAIRIES Dig Many^WelIs Despite Lack % . of Strike. Calgary, A lberta--W hile - prepara tions are,being completed by numerous oil companies for drilling at different^ points In the three prairie provinces,; the Turner valley operations are the ones attracting chief attention from large and small concerns. It is estim ated that the Im perial Oil company has spent- at least $5,000,- OOO prospecting on the prairibs and the other companies combined an equal am ount Results have not been- as satisfactory as some had expected. B ut in the fam ous. Turner valley near Calgary the holes liave shown the. presence of an oil basin', although it has not been developed .to the extent, of perm itting a forecast that a great oil field is in sight. In a dozen dif ferent localities on the prairies some 91 wells have been sunk to depths ranging from 2,000 to 5,000 feet The chief 'result has been the pro duction of plenty of gas, more than the m arket can consume. Royalite No. 4. has yielded 20,000,000 feet of wet gas'and more than 500 barrels of high- grade naphtha a day. Its.production during the last two years has been a to’.ul of 331,524 barrels. This is con sidered a very profitable well. But in the Turner/valley at least a score of companies have wells und^r way or ready to be spudded in. Any day it is*expeeted th at some big pro ducer may be brought in. W ells’are being drilled along the entire 12 miles of the valley. The Imperial, Seneca, Stockman, Vulcan, Cascade, Southam, Great W est, 'Cooper-Nanton, Illiriois- Alberta, McDougall-Segur, New Valley, Calmont, Highland, Big Chief, British Dominion, Okalta,' Dolomite, Home and a dozen other organizations are active in Turner valley. ' Along the international border at Medicine H at, W ainwright, Bow River, Highwood, Sweetgrass, Burdette, Rib- stone, and in the Grand View, Mani toba, field wells are being sunk by dif ferent companies. AU leases are at a premium in Irll these fields. Plastic Surgery Seen as Boon to Ex-Convicts San Quentin, Calif.—The plaint of ex-convicts that.- they seldom have a chance to “go straight” after having run the' gauntlet of a penitentiary may find its end in a science popu larized by the post-war age—plastic surgery. Plastic surgery has remodeled the ugly countenance of Jim Daly, ,fifty- five-year-old convict about to J)e dis charged from San Quentin. Ten days- after the operation he walked among his cellmates,, unrecognized. “ ' Believing he was to be turned into a world which wopld slam the door in 'h is face, Daly requested Dr. Leo Stanley, prison physician, to perform the operation. Doctor Stanley, who h as.. studied plastic surgery, consented. He, pared Daly’s cauliflower ear down to nor mal size and used the pieces to fill a gap in his nose. The ptiysieian said 22 others have asked for operations. The prisoners insist th at w ith facial alterations they would be free to real ly become “new men” to the outside world. • •, New Ocean Surveys to . Be Made by U.

Y O U N G P E O P L E A N D A D U L T T O P IC— T h e Source of Spiritual Power. I. T he Day of P entecost F ully Come {w . 1-13). 1. Significance of the day (v. I). Pentecost is from a Greek word m eanting “fifty.” It w as the feast held fifty days after the wave sheaf offer ing (Lev. 23:16). The w ave sheaf typifies the resurrection of Christ (I Cor. 15:20-23). 2. The gift of the Holy Spirit (w . 2-4). ) On this day the Holy S pirit, de scended upon the disciples. From thdt tim e forth He would work on a new basis, having the crucified,.risen and ascended Christ to present to the world. 3. Upon whom the Spirit cam e (v. I ; Cf. 1:13-15). The twelve and OthQ1S, both men and ffomen to the num ber of one hun dred and twenty, showing th at the gift of the Ho‘ly Spirit w as for all be lievers, not merely the apostles. 4. The m arks of the Spirit (w . 2-4). These m arks w ere external and in ternal. ■ (1) E xternal • ~. (a) The sound of a m ighty wind (v. 2). This is .suggestive of the mys terious, pervasive and powerful en ergy of the S p irit * (b) The tongues Of flame (v.8). Each of the one hundred and twenty was crowned w ith such a tongue. Tongues show the practical purpose of the Spirit’s gift—witnessing. (c) Speaking in foreign tongues (v. 4). Thisjsvas a tem porary endow m ent for a special purpose. (2) Internal. This is seen in the transform ation wrought In the disciples. Peter, who shortly before Ih ts, cowered before^a Jewish maid, now w ith lion boldness stands before' the chief rulers and de clares th at they had m urdered their King, therefore guilty before ,God. 5. T hdeffects {vv. 5-13). • (1) The m ultitude w ere filled w ith amazement and wonder. The gift of the Spirit transform s common men into men of power and influence. (2) Some mocked and foolishly at tem pted to-account for this rem ark able occurrence. They accused the dis ciples of being intoxicated. II. Peter's Sermon (w . 14-47). Peter’s, sermon is as wonderful as th e.g ift of topgues. H is analysis is perfect. ■ 1. The introduction (w . 14-21). (1) Defense of the disciples against the charge of being drunk (v. 15). This he does by citing Jefflsh custom showing th at they would not be drunk a t such an early, hour of the day. (2) A scriptural explanation. H e show ed,that this was a partial fulfill m ent of th at which Joel predicted' would come to pass (vv. 16-21; of. Joel 2 :2S-32) before the ' messianic*' judgment, vii., an outpouring of the H oly Spirit and . the salvation o f all who call upon the nam e of the Lord. 2. The proposition, ’or them e (v. 36). This w as the m essiahsbip of Jesus. 3. The argum ent (w . 22-36). It w as threefold.1 (1) From Christ’s works (v. 22), He was'1 approved of God among the Jew s by H is1 miracles, wonders and signs which God did by Him in tlieir m idst with which they were fam iliar. (2) From H is • resurrection. (w . 23-32). The ,Old Testam ent, Scriptures had foretold the death and resurrec tion of C hrist (Pb. 16:8-10). The dis ciples were living w itnesses of Christ’s resurrection for they had seen and talked w ith p m , and handled Hhn since the resurrection (v. 32). (3) From H is ascension to be on the right hand of God (v. 32). The proof th at He had ascended on high w as the wonderful m iracle of th e; ■Spirit's operation; In their m idst; for He bad said th a t Upon H is ascension into heaven H e would send forth the Spirit. . , ' 4. The effect of the-serm on (vv 37-42). . _ V. - " Many people were convicted of their sins, some, three thousand of ,whom repented- and were baptized. The daily life of these believers w as p ro o f of the Spirit's g ift . (1) They continued steadfastly, in the apostolic teaching (v .'42).' (2) They continued in fellowship with the apostles (v. 42).

Last vear more exhibits came than ,could be exfiibited to the best ad vantage. The officers-and a ma jor ity of the Center people have fully agreed to have the couqty part of the fair moved to Mocksville. The meeting Saturday afternoon will be to consider the place to hold the fair, whether or not it would be best to purchase land for a county fair or use the Masonic picnic and high school grounds this years. There should be lots of interest in a Coun ty Fair in Davie county and I hope the people all over the county will show their interest by attending this meeting. A county fair belongs to the people of the county and can be made as large as the people want to make it. We should not give up the idea of holding a community fair at Center this fall.

J, MINOR, .. Professor Caua School. I'Vho°i-USe l° ar^ue w’lb tile, fellow I. uows Ue is always right. The ‘ Nigger Party?” In tfie davs gone by the fovorite epithet of the Democratic . leaders when talking about the opposing party was “ The Nigger Party.” In Raleigh the Democrats need ed the colored vote and we are told by the papers of the city that the white ladies of the town went after the colored voters of the city, carrying them to thef polls in their automobiles and back to their homes and tnat hundreds of them who were not eligable under the election law were allowed to regist er and vote in the' city election. The Tar Heel Republican, has- re peatedly called attention to the un principled tactics of the Demacratic machine in power in the state, and that machine is largely interested in the local government of the Capitol City and largely responsible for its election results. The rottori election methods employed to per petuate the Democratic majority in the state are employed in their own fights among themselves and if it takes the colored vote to carry out the will of the machine the .colored vote will be used so far as -it goes the “ right way.” W e-are told even by the News and Observer that colored men and womem who are not really able to pass ' the re quirements for registration were allowed to register and- vote and that therein lies a- menace to the entire present condition in the state.. The colored voters in the state who vote are Democrats. Methods are found by (the election officers to keep others from the registry. The Democratic party in N orth: Caro lina has become the “ Nigger Par ty” by its readiness to use ,the col ored vote wherever it can do so to its own advantage—T ar Heel Re- publican. I Gcits His Reward. It is extremely pitiful to see an old broken-down ex-office holder honging around the county court house or the State capitol longing for the days when he was feeding at the public crib and hoping that by some hook or crook that fortune will again favor him and he will be tied to the pie counter. These tnen are n o t. confined to one party, they belong to both the Democratic and Republican. Ouce they hold an office for a few years and then get kicked out they never amount to anything afterward. It is said that Washington city is full of former senators, representatives and other officials who uave lost out and sit around gazing at the cap'tol and thinking of the days of their departed glory. W e;have in mind now an old broken down office holder who has been rewarded for his perfidy. This man at one'tinfe was’''high in the councils oP the Republican paru and held some good remunerate offices but had to step aside- when tb'e Democrats came into power. As soon as the Republicans again assumed theJascendancv in tlie na tion he was the first inan to- apply for the postoffice where he lived but his age barred him and this made hnji sour on his partyi and the worid. He has gradually been growing less interested in the party that fed him for almost a quarter of a century. In 1924 he absented him- jilf from the election and in 1926 went over bag and baggage to the Democrats and openly1 supported the candidates of that party. For his traitorous conduct in go ing over to the enemy he has been appointed tax lister in his town ship, the only office the Democrats have to give' him unless they ap point him a‘ notary public. We w ishhim well in his • new surroundings for the Republican party1 can well afford t o l e t • such m euas h t go.—Uniou Republicau. Mothers, Just Mothers. D ear'Record:—A word to you and through you to others, ^)f; the kind, the use, power and influence of mothers. I know—I wore a red rose Sunday. Question. W hat would we do without mothers. Are the mothers of today and to be with’ all tf>eir Advantages and up-to-date equip ment and preperation, worth as much as mothers used to be? Mon ey. W e. don’t measure mothers by money. JVhat is money any. way but a means to at} end. Home- What and where and how without mothers. I fear that we are loosing the best of both that God gave us, and we are paying dear for what the devil is putting on us. This is a sad reflection, but go to court re cords or penal institutions and see the class and age of the criminals, then to the 'hom ^ and churches and towns on show days, and the< answer is in sight. ' One of the best men in Salisbury said to me recent ly that we hardly have homes any more and not many, women fit to make them. If >ou or I, when young men, had come across a. girl dressed as most of them dress now, we would have wrapped sotnething around her and taken her home and;put her in the closet, for they are not fit to be seen. - It is a fact lhat-men who.cry for this abomination are of one mind and hide their eyes from t the ex tremes of this evil. W here are our hopes for mothers and homes. Withotit a decided change, and'| that soon, we will soon be where Rome went wtiea she got where^we are today. God’s -prophetic photo you will see, 2 Timothy 3:1 8. But thank God there is balm in Gilead, and a Physician. God has always a‘ message of warning and prepara tion. In Noah’s time (meet in due season) from us now. Rev:6-i2 and Matt. 24:14. There is yet some salt of the earth. It did a lot of us grandpa's good Saturday to see some mothers on tiie streets of Mcicksville decent ly idressed. Mothers, wake up. Our hope largly rests with you': It is true that the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world, and you scribes and heralds and watchmen cry aloud and spaTei not. Lift up cliy voice like a trumpet—show my ’people their transgressions and the house of jacob their sins. , Isiah. 58:1. Soontheseseasonsof plea sures and reflections will have pass ed apd that- eternal now will be qurs.

Despite his age he is study, and his mind is clear. Oc casionally he preaehes at. the Jlittle village church. Dr. Dale was born in Ireland, Novgmbej8i3,'1822. He came to Amefica when he was- young and settled, near Where Chicago now Stsnds' At that time he .-was., a member, of the Roman Catholic church.' Soon after coming to ,A - tnerica he became interested in :Jhe movemjent started by A leibider Campbell %nd joined the Church pf Christ. • • 'f To thousands of people in Ala bama Dr. Dale is known as “ The Grand Qfd Man of God « . ' Road Question Settled. Statesville Daily, May io’th. I' District Highway Commissioners W. C Wilkerson1 of Charlotte, and Alex S. Hanes, of Winston-Salem, were in session Monday afternoon at the court house at 4 o’clock, with the board of commissioners' of Ire dell county and delegations of citi zens from Cool Spring, Ch^imbers- burg and Turnersburg townships, •for the consideration of the propos ed road from Mocksville to States vilie. The agreement, satisfactory to all parties concerned, is that the Highway Commission will build a hard surfaced road, of.sand asphalt construction, from Mocksville to Statesville by the most direct route, Iredell paying, her part only,, from the county line to Statesville. Also, it was agreed that the High way Commission would build the link, as planned and announced formerly, -from County Line, to Turnersburg and that this section is not to cost Iredell county any thing. The road from County Line to Turnersburg is to be of the same type of road as that from, County Line to Statesville by way of the Cool Spring route. . * The distance from County Line to Statesville, through the Cool Spring community, is j 2 miles. A survey of this link is to be made at once and Mr. J. M. Deaton, chair man of the Iredell County Road Board, states that they hope to be able to begin work on.the road in QO days, ■ The Record can, easily see- why the people in Iredell coiinty, or- at least'some of them, are pleased at what, the Highway Commission did. Iredellcountygetstw ogood roads from County Line to States ville, running parallel^ with but .a few miles separating’them. •. What does Davie get? Onesand-Ssphalt1 not concrete, road, running from Mocksville'to Couflty Line, and cutting off the entire lower half of the county without’ any improved highways. If the Highway Com mission, calls the direct route from Mocksville to Statesville via Coun ty Line,-then the Commissionneeds to do a little studying of geography aud maps. I^he direct route from Mocksville to Statesville would nev er see County Line,’ but wouldJe"kd trom.tbis city south • to Ketchie’s. mill,Whence to the Yadkin River' near the old Campbell bridge sife, then across the upper edge'of Row an county, coming, into the old Statesville road above Oak Forest. The direct route is followed by the Southern Power Line to States-: ville. ' Compare this route with what the Highway Commission Is pleased to call the direct route and note this great difference. The Re cord doesn’t own any land on eith er route, and has friends' on both, routes, ‘and it doesn’t makej much difference”to us which way the ,road goes, for we are never in a hurry to leave Mocksville. W hat we ob ject to is the statement that-, calls the routing by .County Cine, .the most directs route to Statesville. The Highway “Commission is build ing the roads and the people ,are paging forjthem. AU roads should be built with one idea,' in view— the greatest good to the greatest number. If the road-can be built as cheap the long route as the di-£ rpct route, and-will accomodate as m an y people, then we say; let. the work begin at once. .

Our town has as heavy tax rate and the tax payers should get their money’s worth in improved streets, good shools, a good water supply and lighting system. We are paying for the best and sboulchave it. The folks who thought we were' going to get a hard-surface road to Statesville are going to be sorely disappointed. We don’t know just what a sand asphalt road is, but we know it isn’t a concrete road like we were led to believe would be buifi from Mocksville to Statesville.

Yadkin College Looses. Lexington, May 13 — Yadkin College established its place in the sun as a municipality come to life by right of a 52-year.rpld charter, but failed to establish its claim as a ’“ principal town” when Judge H. Hoyle Sink declined to enjoin the state highway commission from a- bandoning highway 75 through the vjllage and building a bridge across the Yadkin river more than a mile downstream. Judge Sink’s decision was ybased on the ground that Yadktn College is not a "principal tow|n” within the meaning of the term as used in the the state highway act of the 1927 legislature, he stated., ■ "Notice of appeal was given. The plaintiff’s cousel stated they would seek to have a hearing before the Supreme court advanced to the spring term. Actual construction on the bridge, has been under way for more than two weeks. : ' V, IS Mocksville Commence- ment May 27-31. commencenlent exercises at the Mocksville high school this ■year will embrace May 27-31.

W N U Service ‘“Alabaster L a m p s ” is a story of old love a n d of n e w Ioye; as old-fashioned as h o m e - g r o w n strawberries on btscuit-dougn shortcake; as m o d e r n as a low, sleek speedster— balloon tires a n d bobbedrhair driver.

A U about lay the country ' Mlss Turnbull loves, a n d there live s o m e of the finest people in the world— plain A m e r i c a n citizens. F o r Instance, there is C. M. Dabbs, village gro cer, into w h o s e life, c a m e s o m e genuine r o m a n c e — a r o m a n c e In whi c h figured beautiful w o m e n , adventures, a mysterious y o u n g knight f r o m the battlefields of the - W o r l d war, jousting with adversaries in the marts of trade, ocean liners, a visit to foreign shores, a n d a host of other things w h i c h enabled Mr. C. M. Dabbs, grocer,, to gain a secret desire to view existence "through the mists of alabaster lamps.” C H A PTER I „ . The grocery' store of C. M. Dabbs, at the crossroads, Peace Valley, was astir. This was “late-closing” night. Parked before the door were vehicles of alT sizes, sorts and description, from m otors to old-fashioned farm wagons and buggies, the patient horses wait ing, with drooping heads, while their m asters finished their interm inable m arketing and equally Interminable conversations. M arketing took a long time in Peace Valley. In the first place, on late- closing night it was the custom to “go down along the crossroads and do your 'storing' at Dabbs’.” In the second place, hurry was a vulgar habit that had not yet reached Peace Valley. One was “in the way of knowing w hat- was ndoing” in .the village and the surrounding countryside by going to the crossroads store. The news- gathering and distributing took time, for no subject was rashly broached or rapidly discussed. One has on!#- to listen attentively to the apparent ly monotonous discussions in country stores to discover that, though ,illiter ate and totally ignorant of grammar, these solons have read deeply in the Book of Human Nature. Two men alighted from a car just outside the grocery. One of them, the proprietor of the shop, said: “Leave the bags, Ned. The boy'll bring them in.” He was a dark-haired, rather thick set man. H e was not tall. .His fine face w as reddened like that of a sail or or firem an; round, full and clean shaven.' The hair at his temples was graying a little. . It was hi-s eyes that made you look twice at him. C. M. Dabbs’ eyes were blue as any Italian sky, and as cold as ice, or as soft and deep as the same sky. It all depended on how Dabbs looked at you. They were a t their softest and deep est now, as he looked at his compan ion. He w as a much younger man, not more than twenty-seven, with smooth brown hair. His clothes were all that clothes should be, and worn by one who thought about them be fore he put them on, and then forgot about them. He was not the type usu ally found In a country village and he looked-about him with an interest that proved him a stranger. “Peace Valley!” he said, softly. “It looks like it!" He glanced again at the crossroads, one of which led steep ly uphill, while the other wound about the valley until it disappeared behind a tali wood. The grocery store was a great old stone house, the front part of which had been transform ed from a dwelling. Next door, a long -low building combined the business of blacksmithing, wheelwrighting and mo tor repairing. The old and the new were’mingled peacefully together. The post office, the brightly lighted barber shop and the cobbler’s little hovel were all grouped about the crossroads. “I didn’t ,exaggerate, did I?” asked The young m an shook his head.. “Peace Valley,” he repeated. “I didn’t believe there was such a place!” He glanced at the sign over the door and turned to the older man with a smile. “C M. "Dabbs, General Store,” he read aloud. “You told the truth about that, too. But why C. M.? Come, w hat Is it that distinguishes you from the rank an d , file of Dabbses? Is it ■Charles’ o r‘Cyrus’or—’’ ' The older man blushed. O. M., I generally sign myself,” he admitted, “but If you really w ant to know w hat it stands for—why, Claude Melnotte D abbs’s my; name." • ' The young man lauglied softly, re peating, “Claude Melnotte.” Mr. Dabbs smiled. “Do you blame me fbr sticking to C. M., or Muwaril “I do not,” his companion declared erUpllUti"adv. “Tell me—” , “A traveling eoropanj, pietty goo one- too, I believe,” Mr. D a b b s began hurriedly, “with somebody, celebrated. as> ‘Pauline,’ came to ike county seat and played ‘The Lady of Lyons,’ Mjr mother—” "I didn’t mean that,” the young man assured him hastily, as though fearing obstetrical details, “I m eant to ask; is there a ‘Lady of Lyons’ in Peacd Valley and is yours called ‘Pauline,’ too?” - Mr. Dabbs hesitated, shook his head thoughtfully, and said slowly: “I live alone, with Aunt Lyddy to keep house for me. “ ’Course, Pve always thought it was a blamed silly play. ‘ AU about a poor boy m arrying a lady under false pre tenses. Good many years since" I. read it, though, but as I remember, he made good. I’ve often wondered if In real life—” f ' But his companion cared nothing about discussing Lytton’s old play. “I say, Claude Melnotte," he interrupted, "is your Peace Valley home lit by ‘ala-. baster lamps’?” Claude Melnotte Dabbs hesitated. He was home again, after a week of the Wholesale and Retail Grocer’s con vention .in New York. Behiud that calm exterior he was greatly excited. “Come In and Meet Aunt Lyddy.” Something in the young man’s ques tion faintly stirred his memory. Surely there had been mention of “alabaster lam ps" in that-old play. Vaguely feel ing that there was another answer, he took particular pains to be exact “We’ve got an electric light plant for the store only, as you’ll notice. In the house we burn coal oil. They’re Rochester lamps.” He threw the door wide open and beckoned to his companion to., .enter, saying: “Welcome home, Ned. Welcome to Peace'Valley and our store.” W ith their entrance conversation stopped and all eyes turned toward Mr. Dabbs and his companion. Ned saw what-seem ed an immense cavern, lit by crudely installed electric lights which shed a garish glow over the’huge stock of canned goods, flower pots, cotton cloth, hams, bacon, tea, coffee and other staples which consti tute a general store. - “Hello, Sim,” Mr. Dabbs began, greeting the big-headed, pale-faced man behind the counter who .was la dling out sugar for1 a bewhiskered farmer. But before he could introduce Ned, a clear, girlish voice interrupted: “I beg pardon, but could—will any one tell me the road to Clover Hol low?” The occupants of-the store trans ferred their, attention to the girl who, unnoticed, had entered just behind Mr. Dabbs and his companion. She was a- slender, vivid, dark girl. One might suspect, and find, red lights in the brown hair almost hidden by her close-fitting hat, and a fire in the blue eyes that looked out from umjer long, dark lashes. Everything about her spoke of money and care expend ed upon every article of her clothing. She had that curious air of responsi-, biiity and knowledge thaffis so oddly part of youth that the w ar has left u«. “I beg pardon,” Ned began,- but the girl looked past him and at the capa ble Dabbs, who had turned toward her and Was pointing through the dark doorway as he spoke: “Go straight along up that road un til you- pass Brook farm, which you’ll know by the little covered bridge over the brook. Crpss the bridge, turn to the -right and keep on up the hill and away from Peace Valley and you’ll be on the only road to Clover Hollow.”, The girl thanked him briefly, though cordially, and went swiftly out. Ordi narily the crowd would have discussed her, her destination and her likelihood of being a “stayer” or just a visitor at Clover Hollow. But now there was another stranger present, and they turned their attention to Ned. Mr. Dabbe introduced him briefly: “My. nephew, Ned Carter, come to stay awhile.” t Then, as the store began to wake up and get ready for speech, he turned to Ned with a curt, “Come in and meet Aunt Lyddy.” Ned followed without knowing that he had left behind a. seething mass of curiosity. Dabbs knew it. That Claude Dabbs had an unknown nephew was unthinkable, and .unsupported vby the facts concerning the Dabbs family as known In Peace Valley. Jim Farnum made one brave effort toward putting tilings on the proper Peace Valley footing. As Mr. Dabbs led Ned to the door, Jim found his vo.ice: “Didn’t Imow you had a nevvy, Claude,” he called out, “and don’t ex actly see how you can, either, seeing you’re the only one of the hull Dabbs family left.” “My second cousin's boy from the West. He’s always called me uncle, though, instead of cousin, owing to the difference in years. Come on, Ned,” and Dabbs opened the door. Ned found himself in a queer, bare little room, almost filled by a big table-topped desk of the vintage of 1860, quite as large, as a modem din ing table, and a vast arm chair that looked even older, though both were in an excellent state of repair. There were no. pictures on the wall,, only a calendar.- “My’office,” Dabbs explained. “But come on_ and meet Aunt Lyddy, one of the best women God ever put breath in, but likely to be flustered if you bring anybody on her—suddenlike.” He opened a door leading into the interior of the house and ushered Ned into the family dining room. Aunt Lyddy sat at the table, a Rochester lamp in the center on an elaborately embroidered centerpiece.- The lamp had a white shade, but after the harsh light of the shop, Ned was grateful for the softer glow. Aunt Lyddy was a personable old lady, handsome despite her sixty-odd years, with a great pile of the whitest hair Ned had ever seen She looked up as Mr. Dabbs ,entered and scrutinized Ned from over „Jhe rims of her glasses. - “Well, M ister Dabbs, this is a pretty time to come home I Been ajoying around somewhere, as usual, I sup pose." "Brought you something, Aunt Lyd dy." Mr. Dabbs patted her on the back and placed a small package In .her lap. “Just a little something to satisfy that awful craving you’ve got for Jewelry.” Then, before the de lighted old.woman could open the box or speak, I^ continued, his hand on Ned’s shoulder: “B ut I brought a big ger present than that back with me. Aunt Lyddy, this" is my adopted nephew, Ned Carter.” “H’m, adopted!” As she spoke, Aunt Lyddy’s eyes remained fixed on Ned. “Yes, adopted.. But remember,‘Aunt Lyddy, he’s just ‘nephew’ to those gas bags in the store waiting to be filled and float'round town with the news." Aunt Lyddy nodded. “Well, you showed right good taste In selecting a nephew, Claude. He’s a presentable- looking young fellow, I’ll say th a t If so be as he treats you as fair as you treat him, he can stay here and wel come.” “Thank you, Aunt Lyddy,” and Ned smiled his friendliest “I certainly mean well !” Wlio is this brand new rela tion, and why hasn’t Aunt Lyd dy heard of hjm before.

P aris—A few days ago'a shower of red rain fell at many places In south ern and central France. It is signifi cant of the progress of popular en lightenment that, although the event was generally described in the-Frfehch press as a "shower of blood,” this phrase was used in a conventional and not a literal sense. ' No attem pt ap pears to have been made in any quar ter to invest the phenomenon with a miraculous or mysterious character, and na-superstitious fears appear to have been aruilsed by its occurrence. Times have changed.': Among the, so- called prodigies recorded in ancient and medieval chronicles, none are more frequently mentioned than s_trange showers, of one soft or an- .other, which alarmed mankind not only on account of their apparently supernatural character, but also be cause they were regarded as portents of coming wars and other calamities. The catalogue of' tilings rjleged to have fallen in these showers is a long one. It includes fishes, frogs, rats, mice, seipfuts, insects, grain, honey, manna, _sulphur, ink, milk and—most frequently of all—blood. Homer and Vitgil Mention Them. Stories of bloody rain are related by Qomer1 Virgil and Several Koman his torians. Plutarch speaks of showers of blood following great battles and as serts that bloody vapors, distilled from the bodies of the slain, impregnated the clouds, from which they were sub sequently shed-on the earth. Gregory of Tours declared inat a shower of blood fell over Paris in the- year 482 A. P-, when “many people had their ciocries stained with it and cast them off in terror.” Tiie same phenomenon was observed at Brescia for three days and three nights Iiefore the death of Pope Adrian II in- the year 872. Another tliree-day shower of blood is said to have occurred in France and Germany in March, 1181. In IGGO one of these “blood rains” took place at Cluitilion-sur-Seine. ■T here fell in various parts of the town," says.the “History of the Acad emy of Sciences,” “a sort of rain, or reddish liquid, thick, viscous, and foul smelliiig.r-vvhich, resembled a rain of blood. * The prints of great drops of it were observed on w alls;.i.t was this fact that led to the belief that this rain was made of stagnant, muddy water raised by a whirlwind from Some pond in the .neighborhood.” AIthougii the nonmiraciilous nature of red rains was thus suspected at a comparatively early date, they contin ued to be a sources of terror to the "ignorant m ajority of Europeans until a generation or so ago, while even in scientific circles some curiously er roneous notions concerning them pre vailed down to~ the middle cr latter part of the Nineteenth century. Wind-borne. Material. Microscopic examination showed that the rain was reddened with earth, or mineral material, but the source of this m aterial remained for a long time uncertain. It is now well recognized that the falls of colored rain and aIsp of dry dust that o.ccur at rather fre? quent intervals in southern and cen tral Europe are due, in most cases, to wind-borne m aterial blown up from the Sahara desert. Several cases in which enormous quantities of solid m atter have been carried great distances by the winds have formed the subject o f elaborate investigations on the part.of meteorol ogists. • » Thus during the three days, March 8 to 10, 1901, heavy dust storms oc curred in the deserts of southern Al geria, and the sequel of these storms was carefully studied by Hellmann and Meinardus. ' A widespread cy clonic storm, centered over Tunis at the time, sucked up the dust, which- was carried northward by the winds at high altitudes. Deposits from this dust cloud oc curred over an area extending as far a s -2,500 ihiles from the place of origin. Beports collected from hundreds of ob servers indicated th at 1,800,000 tons of dust fell over the continent of Europe, and, one-third of this fell north of the Alps. As much more is. believed to have fallen over the M editerranean, while on the African coast itself: the deposit is supposed to have amounted to 150,- 000,000 tons.

Peter ,Heaiingr the" Lame Man (Acts 3:1-10). 1. The place (w . l , 2). Peter and John w ere on their way to the house of worship.. T his m an had been placed a t the entrance of the place of worship w here he m ight re ceive the sym pathetic attention of worshipers. 2. The man (v. 2). This beggar w as Infirm from Ws blrthi ' H e w as now more than forty years old (4:22) and had brought his ailm ent with him into Ch'e world. W hen he saw Peter and John he asked alms. ~ - 3. The m ethod (w . 3-8). „ (1) The m an’s attention gained (v.,4). . P eter and John commanded him to look on them. (2) JJeter commanded him In' the name of Jesus Christ of N azareth to rise and walk (v. 6).- (3) Peter .took him by the right -hand (v. 7), , This was m eant to give im petus to his faith—not strength to his ankles. 4. The man’s response (v. 8). Strength came to his feet and ankle- bones at once. He stood,"he walked, he leaped and shonted praises to God. 5. The effect (vv. 9-11). The people were so filled 'w ith won der and am azement th at they ran to gether to behold this wonderful thing. N ote: (1) This helpless beggar had to be carried to the tem ple gate. Men and women out of Christ are so helpless that they need to be brought w here % e light of God can be applied ,to them.

JThough this m iracle directed the attention of -thejieople to P eter and John, Peter Immediately turned their attention from him self to C hrist.' H e told them that it was faith in Jesns Christ whom God h a d . glorified and whom they had "deliberately betrayed and crucified th at had healed this man. III. -Peter In P risonfor Christ’s Sake (4:1-4). It was his fidelity to Christ th at brought him this persecution. Observe 1. The leaders—priests and Saddn- cees—in this persecution (w . I, 2) The priests w ere intolerant because these new teachers were encroaching upon their, functions. 2. The result (Vv. 3, 4). Though they were held in bondage by chains, Christ continued to work. The num ber of believers had greatly increased. IV. Peter- W itnessing B efora- the Ssinhedrln (4:5-21). I. The inquiry (w . 5-7). This inquiry adm itted the reality of the miracle. They w anted to know what it signified. _ 2,..Peter's answ er (vv. 8-12). - Being filled w ith the Hoiy Spirit, P eter calmly anil graciously answered. He showed them th at they were not on trial as evildoers but for doing good to the helpless and needy man. Since they, could not deny the m iracle he boldly declared th at it had been done in the name of- Jesus Ohrlst whom they had crucified and God had raised from the dead. 3. The impression upon the Sanhie- drin (w . 13-22). (I) They m arveled (vv. 1-13)1 .lThey-Saw th at Peter’s behavior and words were asjinusual as the miracle.

V on M oltke H O IRE,” said Napoleon HFs min- u ister of war, “all Is In absolute readiness for the Prussian campaign, down to the last button on the last gaiter of the last soldier.” Now, this was one of the most monu m ental lies ever uttered. Napoleon I n was well aware that Europe distrusted him, H e knew the French were naturally restless, that they had had a long era of m ilitary glory,, and th at a few years of hum drum peace m ight lead them to weary of him. So he went on the principle that a w ar every four years would keep them content, swell France’s m artial renown and make safe his own crown. Ip- the first decade of the Nineteenth century Napoleon the Great had crushed Prussia to the dust and hu miliated her king. The son of that king w as on the Prussian throne In 1870 and the great Napoleon’s nephew ruled France. Bismarck, Von Moltke and other Prussian statesm en had foreseen trouble w ith France, and were well pre pared for It, even-if they did not (as m any think) secretly bring about the conflict. France, on the other hand, was totally unready for any such clash. Prussia’s revenge for the sixty-, year-old Injuries was at hand. The overt occasion of the Franco-Prusslan w ar was as follows: Queen Isabella of Spain was de posed. The Spanish crown was of fered to Prince Leopold of Hohenzol- lem , a relative to King William of Prussia. Napoleon IH at once de clared Giat such selection would de stroy the "balance of power” and leave France exposed to Prussian attack on east and south. He therefore de manded that Leopold’s candidature be withdrawn. King W illiam meekly obeyed. Utterly deceived by such sub mission, Napoleon went a step further and demanded a pledge from William that no Prussian prince should ever sit on the Spanish throne. William promptly refused to grant so absurd a request and publicly snubbed the am bassador who transm itted it. This was such an excuse p s Napoleon had longed for. France at once-declared w ar on Prussia (July 10, 1870) and rushed a body of troops to the Ger man frontier. So far, so good. But, owing to graft and Incompetency, France’s army was In wretched condition. Yet France went mad with patriotic zeal. The feats of the first Napoleon against Prussia were recalled. Eyeryone ex- pected a trium phal m arch to the Prus sian capital. The cry “On to Berlin!” was on all lips. La contrast to this, Prussia’s troops were In splendid preparation. The north and south German states (on many of which Napoleon IH had been told he might rely for neutrality or even aid) unanimously joined Prussia, sinking intdrneclne grievances In a common cause; 477,000 men were mus tered, as against France’s 310,000. The German forces were divided into three armies, which at a signal crept unchecked across the Rhine like a huge three-headed snake, preceded by a cloud of Uhlans, sweeping all before them and striking at France’s very heart. King W illiam was commander jn chief, with M arshal von Moltke, the peerless tactician, as his chief of staff. The French armies, commanded by .Napoleon H I in person, made Metz Gielr headquarters. -On August 2, part of Napoleon's northern arm y d ro v e 'a handful of Prussians out of the town of- Saar- bruck. ,B ut thereafter Prussia acted ever oq th e offensive. The French, Individually, fought like heroes, but they were no m atch for their stronger foes. In two arm ies France’s incompetently commanded, ill-equipped forces were hurled back and pre vented from uniGng. One of these arm ies was led by Bazalhe, for m er conqueror of M exico; the other by MacMahon1 afterw ards president of France. BazaIne was successively beaten at Courcelles, Mars-Ia-Tour and Gravelotte (August 14, 16 and IS) and w as penned up In the city of Metz. MacMahon moved forward to aid him, but on September I, was surrounded at Sedan, and next day was forced to surrender w ith forty generals, 4,000 lesser of&cers and 84,000 men. Napoleon HI, who w as with-MacMa- hon’s army, w as.also captured and packed off a prisoner’ to a-G erm an fortress.

CARS EXPLAfHED Study Made of Journal Bear ings With a Fine Abra sive in Lubricant . ■The United States bureau of stand ards has just completed a series of laboratory experiments to determine the effect of road dust on the lubri cants of automobiles. The investigation involved a study of the perform ance-characteristics of journal bearings-when a fine abrasive was in the lubricant, a condition sim ilar to that resulting from the pres ence of road dust and other solid mat ter in the crankcase oil of automobile engines. Increase Friction Loss. Under severe' operating conditions, road dust in the lubricant of an auto mobile will considerably increase fric tion tosses, while at light loads, it w as shown, but little difference will be noted. “This fact makes especially impor tant the' precise determination of the effect of dust on the durability of the affected parts of the engine from a standpoint of service and economy,” the report states. The journal bearing friction ma chine used in the tests provided a method of measuring the fractional loss In a journal bearing when oper-. ating under different conditions of load on the bearing, speed of shaft and viscocity “of the oil, and by cor relating these facts in a suitable man ner, a comparison of the performances of different lubricants with a given bearing was obtained. Friction Loss Same. This comparison 'of the perform ance of straight mineral oils and that of the same oils, plus a small per centage of a very fine abrasive, showed that under very liglit condF tions of service the fraction loss of the bearing is about the same when eusing either the straight mineral oil or the oil plus abrasive. At more severe operating conditions, however, the friction loss when using oil plus abrasive was shown to be greater than when operating under identical conditions with the straight oil. This difference increases as the severity of operating conditions is in creased. it was explained. “These results Indicate th at'th ere is at least a. promising field for fur ther research with reference to the factors affecting the wear of journal bearings,” .the report points out. Cheapssl Plan to Have Your Old Car Made New Apparently the average m otorist is too busy poring over catalogues and buying cars to give thought to what it costs to have his old car made as goo'd as new. As car owners become more economical and settle down to the idea of buying a good car and keeping it in good condition it is an- Gcipated that a new light will-dawn. FrequenGy cars are traded in be cause owners feel that their property has .become obsolete, but this .usually is proof of lack of foresight in buy ing. In most instances, . cars are turned in because there is a knock In the motor, the clutch is trouble some or the universal rattles. The owner takes a loss of many hundreds of dollars In depreciation When he m ight have an entirely satisfactory car simply by Installing a new part. The m anufacturer’s list price for a clutch of popular make is $91.32. This includes a flywheel and universal joint shell. One hundred and twenty- five dollars buys a complete transmis sion for a certain six-cylinder car. A whole engine, Six-cylinder, type, complete with' carburetor, clutch, fly wheel, pumps, starter, generator, dis tributor and all that goes with it can be had for $450/' And these 'are m anufacturer’s list prices which generally are regarded as being absurdly high. Be Specific in Getting Repairs for Your -Aut When discussing the mechanical fe: tures of the car with a repairer, o when ordering spare parts, it is higt Iy Important to be specific. There ar m any parts of the automobile bearin sim ilar or identical names. A car owner might speak of havin; burned out or damaged the “resist once.” But Giat does not help the re pairer nor the parts department There is a resistance unit in the pri mary circuit of the ignition system and another resistance unit for dim rning the headlights. The word “bearings” is too loosel; used. Car owners should say “whee bearing,” “connecting-rod bearing,” de pending upon circumstances. Xt save mistakes. The small lever on the steering pos with which one can feed gas to thi engine is not the “throttle.” It is om of two “throttle controls.” The ac celerator Is Uie other. That big mem her supporting the rear of the car Ii not the rear axle. It is the “axh housing.” In each such housing then are tw<T “live axles.” 1 Wants Homemade Air Valve to Increase Gas Mileagi A properly adjusted spring controller air valve in the man ifoI<ybetween tin carburetor and the cylinder head wil materially increase your gasoline mile age.

As far as grasping goes, Rachel would be hard to beat even today. ‘-‘Rachel dined one night with the rich Count Duchatel. There was a magnificent silver epergne In the mid dle of the table and .she persuaded Gie count to present it to her. Aft erward, to save cab fare and to be sure that the count wouldn’t' change his mind about the epergne, she got him to send .her home w ith It in his own carriage. “ ‘The priceless epergne,’ ,she said, ‘will be safer this way than in a public cab.’ “ ‘Yes, yes, quite so,’ said the count, with a rather nasty laugh, as he escorted her across, the sidewalk— for he Ithew he’d been done. ‘But you'll be sure to send me back my carriage, won’t you?” ’- Bell-Ans Really Sure Relief Thousands of Testim onials From Doc tors, Nurses and Dentists Say So.

Mrs. Amanda Belk, aged 79, living near Unionville, Union county, per haps bolds the record of any person living in North Carolina with the greatest number of descendants Mrs. Belk boast of having 323 de scendants—all of them living She has 11 children. 149 grand children and 163 great grand children. The aged woman admitted that she didn’t know them all—not quite. But many an afternoon, she says, she reaps a lot of pleasure in going over the list to find out just how many she really is acquainted with. Mrs. Belk had a total of 16 child ren, and all of them grew to maturi ty except one. There were eight boys and eight girls. Practically all of Mrs. Belk’s de scendants live in Union and adjoining counties. Mrs. Belk spends her time with various children, several of which live at Unionville. Patrick County Apple Crop Killed. Reports from Patrick county, Virginia, stale that practically all the apple crop in that county has been killed. This is guaranteed as almost a calamity since the ap ple crop in Patrick is enormous and brings more money than any other "crop produces in that county. This county produces probably more ap ples than any other county in the South when not interfered with by frost and freezes. Had Au Agreement It is observed that in Mount Airy town warrents were issued for a 15-year-old girl who was driving an automobile which ' 'struck and seriously injured a . 6-year-old child.” Also, it was explained, a warrant would be issued for the girl’s father, on the ground that “ the city commissioners had given the girl permission to drive,” knowing she was under the age prescribed in the statute, the per mission to nullify the law being “ on condition that the father would be held responsible for the acts of his daughter." It is possible that he could be so held without the agreement. But the point of interest is that, according to this report the Mount Airy commission ers felt commissioned to enter into an agreement for the nullification of a state statute on such conditions as they approved. That, however, is quite the custom as to many statutes. AU sorts of ofiicials take unto themselves the privilege to make such regulations as may ap> peal to them, or as the find conven ient for the accommodation of those they would favor. They proceed on the same theory as ^magistrates and similar judicial officers, who on occasion overrule the Supreme court. Laws don't count as among friends if enforcement authorities feel authorized to make change to suit.—Greensboro News. iiiiiiiiiiifiiimiiiiinuiiiiiirimimttiiimh , BABY CHICHS REDUCED PRICES Anconas, Reds 12c.

Fines and suspended sentences will not be considered. “ It makes;no difference to me whether they, are the most promi nent people ih this city or the low est. . The lives of people have been endangered long enough: by ‘ these drunken drivers and I shall deal heavily with .them in the- future,” the Judge declared. -Judge Finley's, statement was made m open court in the course of the day’s, routine. •Yes, Mocksville lias a big bunch pt t Ight-Vi ads. • / MOCKSVILLE. Editor Record:—President Hard ing, in the campaign of 1920, in a speech, said: “There can be no is sue in this land paramount to that of law enforcement. Lawlessdrink iug is a menace to the Republic it self." Those lines hang conspic- iously on the walls of my offiee. Hardly a day passes that in look ing around from ihy seat do I miss those words underneath the picture of Uncle Sam, significantly point ing his finger to all of us, and say ing: “You uphold it.” When I look around on the streets of Mocks- ville, a town now burdened with high taxes and the end not in sight —wheu I think of what we are get ting for the large amount of monev we taxpayers are being called upon to contribute to the upkeep and government of our town—in amaze ment I wonder what we are getting for what we are being called on to pay. Are our laws being enforced within the town limits? Are the good and law-abiding citizenship exerting themselves to enforce the laws or have them enforced? ^Are they quietly winking at the flag rant, almost every day violations? Are. they trying to.-make Mocks- viile a fit place for-their wives aud children? Are they more intent in piling up dollars than making of their boys and girls upstanding men and women? Are they un mindful of the responsibilities of true American citizens? HavCthey ever read in history of the story of the Roman Emperor, Nero, "stand ing on the roof of his palace play ing the fiddle while Rome was be ing devoured by the flames' of a great conflagration? And the moth ers of Mocksville—what are they doing to uphold the laws you have helped to make? Are you neglect ing the greatest responsibility of womanhood, the training aud pro tection of your boys and girls? Are they using their influence for the .betterment of our totvn? If so, why don’t you de'mand of the of ficers you helped to elect', that they get busy and enforce the town or dinances and the laws applicable and eoforcible by them inside the corporate limits? I have listened to, and heard the Republ'can coun ■ ty officers criticised for some of the lawlessness of the county. Mocks- ville is in Davie county. Are you trying to make Mocksville a model town? Are you setting-the ceunty officers a fine example by your ef forts here in town to enforce the law? I don’t want a Davie county Democrat who is doing nothing to enforce and uphold the law, . and especially a MocksviIle Dimmicrat, to ever open his mouth to me about the rottenness in the Republican, party, uutil they have cleaned out the rottenness out of Mocksville — where tuey have had undisputed sway for about fifty years. I re member the Democratic slogan in the 1884 campaign—“ Turn the rascals out.” Ith in k it is about time for us to get up a like slogan for Mocksville. *Have the good, people of this town—and I think there are a few such here—become afflicted with some fatal eye trouble which has so greatly impaired their vision, that they are unable to see what a blind nian ought to see? It certainly looks like it. Listen. Some of the mothers and fathers here are going to have pressed to your lips the bitter dregs that lurk in the cup, which yoH are making no effort to keep from your child ren, You can neglect and ignore your responsibilities—but you will pay the price sooner or later. •E.

' “Figures From Biennial Report” 'I ,Did you ever stop to think how little the State is helping to run the schools here in Davie county? Over and above all we call it a State System. The amount the State gives us reduces our -school tax rate only .04. Just think, here we are calling our school system a State State system when we are not getting enough money from the Staty to hardly make a' start on. The State furnishes enough money to reduce the school tax rate .92 in Dare county, .01 in Cumberland, .49 in Wilkes, .33 in'Yadkin, 01 in Rowan and .30 Polk. If I give one man ,00 and another man £92 00 how can I call it equality. We seldom ever fail to hear our friends from Western North'Carolina speak" of the wealth ofj Wilkes when addressing an audience in Davie county. The Daily Papers continue to blow a loud horn about the riches ot Wilkes county, commonly^ called the State of Wilkes. B utyetw heuit comes to the school tax rate ours was .75 in 1925 while Wilkes county's was .66. Iu 1925 we got a reduction of .04 from the State Equalizing Fund while Wilkes county got .49. Some difference, isn't it? Do you call this equality?, Is it an audit. - "The RecSrd Not An Audit” The public record that I refered you to sometime ago is uot an aud- itas some claim it is. If it is ah audit, why did Prof. E. P. Bradley and J. B. Johnston signed it? It is~sworn to by these two school of ficials before W. M. Seaford, C. S. C. If it really does happen to be an atidit, do you mean to say if isn't true when -it so plainly states that that Davie county puts out the Superintendents salary wnich is $2400 per year. If the State is paying $1200 of his salary,Jwhy not show us a record of it, or at leffst show us where Sam Stonestreet has recieved it. If we are. not telling.the truth, please tell it for us. The people dn Davie county certainly are wanting to know the truth about this high tax question. “Are The People Satisfied?”’ No. The people are not satisfied, about this “school situation.” The m ostofthem thatI havetalkedwithwant to see some'’changes made in our school officials. Some of our leading men and women say that a change is very much needed. The Board of Education is not considering some things properly. I don’t think. Surely they know how the mass of the people look upon some of HieirtWork. The people are getting a little sore abdut sotfie things. '. . “ Who Looks After School Property?” We happen to know of a school house that is standing wide, open to tiie-ptthlic. Boys and girls go in and out when they please. Per haps, it is used for a drinking lodge by our drinkers of “corn stew.” From all signs* this public school house has been used for immoral pur poses. Young girls and boys frequently go in and out during the sum mer months. Why do they not lock these doors?: There is no use to let school houses stand wide open to the rambling public. "That Air Farmer.” If anybody has anything to say, just remember that the poor old farmers ofDavie county are the one that are paying the tax. Land can not-, be invested in “non-taxable oroperty.” Look at some and see what they are doing. .We poor old farmers are being run down by some of our high class officials. How many bushels of coro can the Super intendent buy with his $2400?' Thefarm ersare jjust about ready to raise a "kick, even is we are considered ignorant of'business. A FARMER a n £> GLAD OF IT.

Federal officers, Loudon, Rat- ledge and Moore, scouting m the swamp about two miles1 back -of Berea Church in Providence town ship, the report has it, discovered the big still running full bast. IA ten-horse boiler furnished the steam and a huge copper coil with 14 nqgs was pouring a steady stream ..as largeasa man’s finger.,- Nearby were juglvcontainiug'118 gallons-of new whiskey. The officers caught a snake Iq the swamp, and dropped it alike wiggling into the jug... The snake was dead in a half-minute. . The still was provided with plen ty of supplies to run quite a white. Twenty-two tanks of mash - stood by, ready to be run, each tank cbu- taing some 300 - gallons. The still would deliver something; like 200 gallons of whiskey eyery.f 2 hours. A glade had been cut from the still for 200 yards out of-the near* est approach, so the operators could detect the approach ot officers. The operators were , seen In the distance, butgitaw ay thru the dense swamp before the officers could 'reach the spot.

May25,^ Ban-res Is This A Graft? Two weeks ago; we made men tion of the fact that the Stone Mountain Memorial Association . was conducting some kind of a campaign whereby ihe old Confed erate veterans were separated from five dollars of their pension money for a chunk of bronze supposed to Be a medal of some kind. " We dalled ,on the"Daughters of the Con federacy to investigatj this alleged graft and if the thing was not on' the level to put a stop to it. * In the last issue of-the I Roxboro Courier we find a protest along the same line as follows: “We have nad nothing more dis gusting to happen to us than a lit tle matter concerning Stone Moun tain and the Old Vets. A few weeks since we. received a, letter from the Stone Mountain, folks asking us to help them get in touch : with all the living veterans. We published the article and asked that all names of the living veter ans be .sent in, and now we learn these old veterans are being asked to send in five dollars and receive a medal, of honor. Shame on any set of men or,women, who would thus try to fleece these noble, hon orable old citizens out of the small means they have—many of whom rely lacgely on their pensions for a "-livelihood.” Another paper received at this - office the past week contains an ap * peal endorsing t.bis proieet, the money it seems to go to Augustus x • Lukeoian1 the sculptor, and this is V signed by five newspaper folk- of ■ North Carolina, A. C Honeycutt, president and Miss Beatrice Cobb, secretary of the state press associa tion;!.'B. Sherrill, of the Concord Times; J. B. Hurley, of the Salis bury Post, and Josephus Daniels, of the Raloigh News and Observer. x • -■ We are just wondering if these newspaper people were taken in by this scheme or whether the Rox- bbro Courier and the Union Re publican have been misled? But we received our information first hand from an old, veteran and until this is disputed and proven that we are wrong we shall still believe what he said about it. We sincerely trust that the pres ident ,of the Daughters of the Con federacy will make some kind of statement and dear up this matter. . —Union Republican. Can’t Object To That. The county commissioners have made a fair proposition to the State Highway commission about tbe'routing of 7 5. It will be gen erally admitted that the eastern section of the'county* that portion which would be penetrated by a road- direct from Statesville to Mocksville, is entitled to a paved highway. The State body propos es to save costs of construction by connecting with, No 26 at Turn- ersbuig. While that lengthens the distance between Statesville and Mocksville it reduces to six miles the construction in Iredell. Put the the cost of that six miles—or iu other words construct six miles on the line toward Statesville, say the county commissioners to the State body, and the county will bear the cost of the remainder. That eli minates the question of cost and it would seem that the proposition is void of objection, so fat as the State-body is concerned. It will cost the county quite a sum to make the same connection that could be made via the Turnersburg route. But it will open, to the ad vantages of a paved road a section that is entitled to it. If there was no road to be run between States ville and Mocksvillethecontentions that the new territory! should be open would -not have so. much weight. Butastheroail is to be built, the argument that it should come throunh new territory rather than connect with ,.,another line is worthy of consideration. In the course of time some of the main line highways will have! to be wid ened to take care of the traffic. If there are two lines, even, though there is,some parallelling, the ad vantages of the highway are better distributed and the possibility of traffic.ccngestion and all that im plies is avoided. In any event, if the! county is willing to put up the extra cost for the'routing of ,7 5 the wap the com missiners ask that it be routed, the State commission should be agree able.—Statesville Daily.
