Fortunate Raise Was Not Made Retroactive “Soon after the inauguration of tIie presnt State adminstration it was noised around" says the Rox- bofo Courier, "that the -employes 'u the State departmets at Raleigh were not giving value received. So, a salary and wage commission was formed, and said salary and wage eoitimision created such a furore as- had not been seen iti the old Ral- etKli town iii niauy months. -Well, at the last meeting of said coinmis- s‘on tIie salaries of these same folks who had raised such a furore was ■“creased by uearly $100,000 an- ““ally. Evidently, in the minds 0 tbe S. and W. commission, these 0Iks must have been badly mis treated for the past number Of yaers “t fortunately, nothing was said a °“t making it retroactive” . Record wants correspondent Looleemee and Advance. Another Wage Increase. Will they never get the wages of the'employes of the several depart ments at Raleigh and State high way commission standardized so that this eternal raising wages will cease? The salat y and wage commission at its meeting, in Raleigh recently and granted some 500 increases to the poor overworked clerks aggre gating $70,000 which will be taken from the pockets of the taxpayers. These people knew the salary that the office paid when they ac cepted it or rather when they grab bed it, so if they get out and give the several thousand other- hungry Democrats throughout the Statean opportunity to connect up with State’s pay roll? The commission found that it had no authority to-prohibit the practice of nepotism in the depart ments but they did make a recom mendation to the heads of the sev eral departments that they do not' give employments to so many mem bers from one family. A Raleigh dispatch says that it is common knowledge that the former order of the commissioner was aimed at a certain department head supposed to be the chief defender. We are making and effort to get tbe name of his department and a list ot the family employed therein and if we get hold of it will publish it so that the taxpayers of North Carolina can see who this gentleman is that is looking so carefully and entbu- sitically after his kins-folk. Sometime ago, Secretary of State Everett was charged. with_ having two of his daughters on the pay roll, one of them married and WlJto didn’t even live at Raleigh, but we understand that this has been re medied so it must not be Eyerett that is violating all the laws of de cency and good government by quartering his family on the State. But it is extremely doubtful if the recommendation of the com mission in regard to employment of relatives in the several State de partments will have any effect. The commission is not in favor with the office-holding oligarchy at Raleigh and anything they can do to dis credit it will be done although they are aware of the fact that to show a decent regard to the proprieties they should not be guilty of this flagrant violation of the reoom- mendation of the commission. But once a fellow gets his foot in the office holding feed trough he will not budge until kicked; out by an exasperated electorate and he not only looks after himself but makes an effort and in many cases suc ceeds in getting other members of his family, his sous, and daughters, uncles, aunts, consins hnd inlaws hitched up at the public crib. It is as Brother Clark in his com ment says, "greed has no shame." —Union Republican. For Public Use. The editor of one the Monroe newspapers says he thinks belli hsk the county commissioners, or whoever grants privilege, to allow him to put up a hot dog stand near the principa/town square, up vend ers', patent tire menders and a horde of others of the-'hurry along crowd ujfing it at will. Since he is a home town man, the editor facetiously re marks that, he ought to have first call 'A hot dog stand ought to go well, he avers. The Monre editor Hs .eternally right is this matter. Public squar es are too much abused, .by suffer- ence of the authorities in various localities. When it is summed up, such public places are not used nekfly so, much by the home folks as by every sort of-traveling aggre- gratiou that might be jmagined.^- TheDispatclL - A Plain Funeral. ; The njan W.

Tim es: -A preacher came at a news paper man in this way: "You editors do not tell the truth. If you did yojn could hot live; your newspaper' would be a failure,” The editor replied: "You are right and the minister who will at all times and under all .circumstances tell the truth about his members, alive or dead, will not occupy his pulpit tnorejhan one Sunday and then he will find it necessary to leave town in a hurry.

The first Davie County Fair will be held at the Picnic grounds 11 Mocksville September 20, 21 and 22nd and everything bids fair foi this being a huge success. The enthusiasm is high and the’cooper- ation from all sections of the coup ty is splendid. Nothing attempted in a long .while affecting the entire county completely has met with unbiased cooperation and real coun ty spirit manifested in the organi zatiori or this splendid undertaking. Directors from every township in the county have been elected by a mass meeting held in the court house and the officer's and directors have held several very interesting meeting. The organizations , is praetically complete and a large number pf ladies and men have set out on the task of making the first County fair one of ‘ the best fairs ever held in this section. It is the opinion of some of the officers that even the great Winston Salem and Eorsyth County fair will not be more complete along, agricultural and live stock than our Davie Coun ty Foir. With the success of the Center Fair held for the ’ last few years 'and the splendid - advice and help of tbe officeis conducting that fair manifesting their interest and contributing of their money and time to this Fair, there is ab solutely no doubt but that it will be far-reaching and beneficial tG the entire citizenship. Theofficers believe confidently that the Agri cultural,and...live . stock exhibits, with the nice prizes and premiums offered will be plentiful and in a- bundance. There will be special attention paid ladies exhibits in canned fruits cakes, pies, and all kinds of cook ing, together with fancy work and needlework of all kinds. School work will also be paid special at tention. Poultry, hogs, horses, mules, cows, sheep, and in fact everv thing shown at the largest fairs in the country will be exhibi ted and premiums offered. The committees in charge of the organization plans will use every effort to get^ financial assistance from this and other counties to con tribute to the success' of the at tempted project. It is earnestly desired that every citizen in the county will talk fair and tlrnk fair until it will be one' of the best ever held. Please make your plans now to do your part and remember that this is a problem of County Wide interest and is not a money-making scheme of some group of individuals. It is simply a cooperative move on a part of the entire ■ county towards making Davie one of the best counties and to bring about full realization of the fact that she is much more than the average person believes her to be today.

It is a state of'perfect preser vation.” Dr. Thomas said he had permis sion from Lee Collins, Sr., father of Floyd, to bury the body on his Crystal Cave, property, Collins’ brothers, Lee.

Perhaps Mr. Coolidge hadn’t thought of them in an equally long time un til the western farmers began to roar; but then! their advantages as a summer camping-place impressed nim prodigiously. The boys can rave above Calvin’s mediocrity all they please, but whbn it comes to turning a political trick the cleve rest of them might just as well pack up their traps; and go along home when he begins to operate.

Simmons is mak- iug a brave effort to appear well and to keep down the ,eport that he is a sick man. He is making a desperate effort to Iiye out his term which expires in 1931 and is hop ing that he will be ; patched up - so that he'can run again in 1930. AU during\the session of the last con gress the senator was in a weak condition and he was absent from bis seat a good portion of the time. Some weeks ago it was given out from his home in New Bern that the senator would take a mountain vacation and would perhaps be gone two months visiting Roaring Gap, Blowing Rock, Statesville and Asheville during his journey. It now turns out that Statesville was the objective poidt and the place visited was a sanatorium where he was a patient, for three weeks. Saturday he returned to his farm home in New Bern. Senator Simmons is past 73 years old and has led a busy life, politi cally and is doubtless nearing tbe end. There is no use to be so se cretive about it. It is the way every one has to go sooner or -later but an office holder, especially one that has had a strangle hold on the of fice as.

Miss Flora; Davis, Raleigh, Associated Superintendent of the North Carolina Sunday School Association; and Miss lone Alverson.

In addition to these outside speak ers, several of the best knou/n Sun day school workers in tbe county will have part ou the program The convention is interdenominational, and workers from all -Sunday schools in the county are invited to partici pate in the work. The Davie Coun ty Sunday school under whose -di rection the Conventiontion is being held, is one of the units of the North Carolina Sunday School Association., Each of the 100 counties in the State is now organized into a County Sun day School Association. In charge of the arrangements for the convention are Mr. D. H. Hend ricks, and Mrs Vi. E. Kennen. Pre sident and Secretary of the County Sunday School Association. Thexe officers are requesting the co-opera tion of all pastors, superintendents and other-Sunday school leaders in the effort to make the convention a success. . Following a. custon inaugurated several vears ago, the officers have announced that again this year a pennant will be 'presented to tbe Sunday School having in tbe con vention the largest number of re presentatives, sixteen years of age atid-over. according to the number, of miles traveled. ..It is expected that there will be much' friendly competition for the pennant among the Sundav Schools of the county.

JU L Y 6. iTtmi in 1 iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii'i"” i''‘Hiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiutmniiiiiiimiiiiiimnmrr' Negro Outlaw Kitted. Morganton, July 3.—Today saw the end of the long hunt for Broad- us Miller, negro slayer of 15-year- old Gladys Kincaid. Piobably to make sure that the quest was final ly over and that the negro had paid with his own life the penalty for his crime as well as to satisfy an evidently morbid curiosity, large crowd was permitted to view his dead body on . the-steps of the Burke county jail this afternoon. Miller was killed this morning a bout 10 o’clock near Liuville Falls station by Commondore Burleson, young Morganton man, 'who had been a member of the searching party almost two weeks ago. Tbe trail that was established over a week ago, leading up through the mountains section between Burke and Caldwell counties proved to he the correct one and after the negro had been shot his condition show ed the effects of the long chase—his clothing ragged and torn, his shoes worn so that bis feet had been bound with old rags. His wife, who had been in jail since the tragedy that so shocked the state as well as this community, was brought from an adjoining o n nty, where she was: taken for safe keeping, to indentify the body. This she did without besitency. In other was he been indentified and so there is no doubt but that the right negro has been found. The crowd which gathered here this afternoon filled the courthouse lawn and flowed out into, the streets. A representative of the ! Associated Press, who stood by the' dead body of the negro counted more than 5, 000 persons who passed- by during the afternoon. 'A good,many peo ple are thought to have passed down the line more than one time, but all estimates were that between 2,500 and 3,000 people were around the courthouse at one time this afternoon. Two men stood at the end of .the line that passed by the dead negro with hats, taking up a free collec tion for the family of the murdered girl. Ir was estimated that around $500 was collected during the after noon The negro, when surprised, was seated on a boulder. He raised his gun, a 12-gauge shotgun, and call ed "halt.” Burleson fired at him with his pistol and the ' negro re turned fire. It is said that the tree behind which Burleson darted when the negro fired, was- shattered by the of the shot, Burleson shot six' times before the negro crumpled up and groaned. H e was dead when the searchers reached the spot. His gun wasjempty, his shot at Burleson being his last shell.

The family and manyv friends of Mr. J. M. Smith familiarly known as ‘‘uncle Manle.” met at the splendid old Smith home in North Iredell, Harmony R. 3. last Sunday 26th and enjoyed a family reunion a. bounti ful picnic dinner Celebrating Mr. Smith’s eighty-third birthday. The family was all present but one Mrs. T. P, Mitchell, whose health would not admit her being present, Together witSh the family was a host of friends and relatives numbering two hundred and twenty or more by the best count obtainable. Those present from a distance were as follows: R. C. Shaw and family, of1 Winston-Salem, W. T. Wellman and family. R. G. McSwain and family, C. J. Johnson and fami ly, C M. Smith and family all of Salisbury; Mrs R. L. Ryan, of Char lotte, C. T W,. Smith and family of Woodleaf, R. T. Cook and family of Miami, Fla , Rev L D. Ballard, T. P. Mitchell, L. H. Anderson and family, G. F. Mitchell, all of States ville. and E L. Lapish and family of Cooleemee. The table, fifty yards or more in length, arranged out in the yard un der a variety of beautiful' shade trees, was loaded almost to the groaning point with the very best of things to eat, the center of attrac tion being a huge birthday cake in which wa^ set eighty-three candles. When the table was all in readi ness the crowd was called around near by and after some fitting words of welcome by Mr. Smith followed by Rev. L. D. Ballard, pastor of Rock Springs Baptist Church, of which Mr Smith is a member, who spoke beautifully in words befitting the occasion, closing by asking blessin'g, all were invited to walk up and help themselves which they did, and when everyone had eaten to their satisfaction many baskets full were carried away. In the after noon after spending a few hours in a splendid social way the crowd be gan to break way, seemingly in a happv mood because of having spent a little time minglng with friends and relatives. Mr. Smith is one of the very few Confederate Soldiers yet living in this section of the country, and dur ing his active years in life was one of the leading and most successful farmers of his community and for a great many years he has been a faithful member and loyal supporter of the Baptist church. His family consists of himself and six children his wife bavingdied sev eral years ago. The boys are Messrs. W. E., E. H and J. Moody Smith all of Harmony, R. 3, and Mr. C. M. Smith of Salisbury.

Mr. Smith is:spending his declin ing years loved and honored by . a great host of friends with his young est son J. Moodv who now owns the old home.

She promised to give him back to God. In his early child hood his mother cared for and taught him. At an earl; age she banded him over to the care of Bli to minister onto the Lord In the Tabernacle. While he was thus engaged God called him. He responded to this call and spent a long life In useful service to God and his nation as judge and prophet Our lesson today is his fare well address. I. Samuel’s Challenge to the People (w. 1-5). 1. Reminder of the way the king bad been given (v. I). He diowed that they were directly responsible for the change In gov ernment. Though keenly feeling the reflection upon himself, and their in gratitude to God in their demand for a king, he had not resisted tbelr Wish. 2. Review of bis own administra tion (vV. 2, 3). (I) Walk from childhood (v. 2). Samuel’s was a remarkable life'; from childhood to old age he bad lived an upright and pure life. (2) Career as judge and ruler (v. 3). He boldly dial- lenged them to show where and bow he had even In the smallest matters defrauded or oppressed anyone. 3. The vote of confidence by the people (vv. 4, 5). It was Samuel’s right as he (aid down the reins of government to have his record vindicated and to have his integrity established beyond a doubt, so that no evil-minded man conld ever be able to cast reproach upon him. II. Samuel Reviews God's Dealing From the Time of Moses (w. 6-15). He reasoned with them concerning the good hand of the Lord upon them from the time of Moses. Though they with Ingratitude turned from the Lord and demanded a king like the other nations, He bad acceded to tbeir re quest and set a king over them. 1. National prosperity conditioned by obedience (v. 14). Though they had displeased God in choosing a king, if they wonld fear, the Lord and render obedience, na tional prosperity would still be given. Would that the nations today could see that obedience to God is the only way to' prosperity! Nations should find out God’s will and then bring themselves into harmony therewith. God’s law must be obeyed by the rul ers as well as the subjects. 2. Disobedience to God meant the nation’s ruin (v. 15). It is folly to ask God’s blessing upon a nation while It is living in rebellion agaipst Him. True statesmanship is to find out God’s -will concerning the nation and so direct that In all Its laws and customs there may be har mony with that will. III. Samuel’s Own Vindication (w. 16-19).Tbls was'such a critical hour In the history of the nation that Samud sought to indelibly Impress Its mean ing on their hearts. This he did by means of the thunder and rain out of season. Harvest time was not the season for thunder and rain, so when it came at the call of Samuel the people were affrighted. They saw It as an example of God’s mighty power which, if directed against them, wonld destroy them in an instant. IV. Samuel’s Gracious Response (w. 20-25).I. “Fear not—serve the Lord with all yonr heart” (vv. 20-22). Samuel did not minimize their sin, but assured them that If they would serve the Lord wholeheartedly He wonld not forsake them. The ground of their hope was In the faithfulness of God in keeping His covenant “For His name’s sake” shows that God’s honor is at stake. "God forbid that I should sin against the Lord. In ceasing to pray for yon” (v. 23). Though the people had rejected Samuel, yet be hadf such magnanimity of soul that he has not allowed their ingratitude to . stop his Intercession for them.. Such failure he regarded as sin for himself. He as sured them that in spite of their sin their one concern should be to fear the Lord and serve Him wholeheart edly.- Be Ready to Act Doors are.opening or closing all the time in life, and what they will do for you depends on the way you grasp or fall to grasp the opportunities that come to yon. Be watchful; be ready C0 act—Maltbie D. Babcock. Influence Influence depends less on our activi ties than on the qualities that Ue be hind out activities,, as the planet at tracts, not by its motion, but by its weight—ThojjRa Staxr King. -nt Hunt Two Years for Seven Heirs to $38.83 Redding Calif.—Seven cou sins of the late Albert H. Shawn, a blacksmith who died In Cot tonwood in February, 1925, will share equally in the distribution of the estate valued at $38.83. It took the attorney for-the estate two years to locate the seven cousins In Litchfield, IlL Each of them will now receive a check for a little more than $5. KILL POLISH POET FOR USING RADIO Asaaalted by Peasants for Owning ttDeoH Box.” London.—A young Polish poet, Sa- vicki by name, carved his name In history by becoming the first radio martyr. Savicki is dead, alleged to have been lynched by an Ignorant Pol ish peasantry for listening In. Young Savicki, who is a rich land owner as well as a poet, has until re cently lived In Warsaw, but growing tired of city life withdrew to a remote estate' In Poland. He took with him a radio set with which to keep in touch with the main stations of Europe. By degrees the Polish peasants grew sus picious as they realized, that SavickI was sucking music out of the sky. For several nights the peasants stole around his cottage as Savicki tuned in. Through the panes of thick glass they caught the strains of the American jazz band playing in the foyer of the Savoy hotel In London. Anger mingled with superstition when they attributed the continual rains and agricultural poverty to heaven’s wrath at Savicki and his “devil box.” Qft SyRflay qyery PgJISh peasant in the vicinity went fo midnight mass be fore setting to what, it is said, they agreed to do. Leaving church, it is alleged, they stole to Savlckl’s cottage and surrounded it. He was at It again, they found, and the saucy tune of the charleston from the London ballroom exasperated their senses. It is reported they smashed the door, grabbed at Savicki, while others backed at the radio set and banished the music from the air. Streaming with blood from a score of wounds and apparently lifeless, Sa vicki was left on the floor of his cot tage with feis blood-stained broken toy beside him. He died a few days later. Woman With Crucifix Routs Assailant in Home Philadelphia.—A' glass crucifix In the hands of the wife of an Ameri can marine now on duty at Shanghai, China, sent an intruder plunging through* a window in the home of Mrs. Stella Lis, recently, after he had tried to attack her as she slept. Sirs. Lis 'awoke when some one grabbed her waist and turned a flashlight on her. Springing up, she seized the crucifix, smashed it over the assailant’s head and with the aid of her teeth and fists drove him from the dwelling while three of her chil dren cowered nearby. The intruder had hit her thirteen-year-old son a hard blow on the mouth when he sought to interfere. Mrs. Lis’ elder sou and a boarder, aroused by the scuffle, ran to her room and began a vain search for the man. She discovered he had taken $24 from her purse before trying to attack her. Patient Is Boiled to Detdh in Hospital Bath Harbin, Manchuria.—A. Russian ex- policeman was boiled to death In his bath at the Chinese Eastern Railway’s Central hospital here. • The Russian, an inmate of the luna tic ward in the hospital, was suffering from progressive paralysis of the spine. Afi attendant took him for his bath, found , the tub empty and turned on the hot water faucet. Just then another patient called the attendant, who returned half an hour later to find the ex-pollceman boiling to death' In a tub of steamy water. The lunatic resisted strongly when the attendant tried to drag him from' the tub. Physicians said the man’s disease had destroyed his power of feeling and that presumably the steam ing water fascinated him. The patient died a few hours after being taken from the boiling bathtub. Flocks of Wild Pigeons Deoast Young Oat Fields Longview, Wash1-Large flocks of wild pigeons are devastating young oat fields at La Gamas, farmers of that -region complain. One grower reported by long-distance telephone that the pigeons were so numerous on his farm they Uterally^eovered the ground. The flights of birds appear to have come from central Oregon,- possibly flocks which are far oft their usual course by influent* of heavy storms. Wild pigeons are rarely seen along the Pacific coast in numbers. They are en route to Alberta or Sas katchewan for summer nesting. Holds a Record Pernambuco, Brazil.—One sort of a record for transatlantic flights is held by Joao de Barros, Brazilian aviator. He" flew the plane Jahn from Genoa to Pernambuco In eight months. He left Italy last October and had a lot of mishaps, but finally arrived by air. Just Little SHATTERED HOPES A woman entered a Paris hospital the other day to Inquire about a pa tient whom she believed had died, Assuming the visitor to be a relate of the patient, the head nurse was happy to be able to Inform her that the sick man was convalescent. “Oh!” exclaimed the woman, without registering any particular pleasure. “You say he Is better?” “Much better, yes.

Still Falling At school at Lanbershim the other day, the teacher asked Buddy Cohen If he knew what a falling out meant. “Sure!” exclaimed lSuddy, “we have one in our family right now!” “Why, Buddy, you don’t mean yonr father and mother are not getting along?” “Sure they do! But daddy’s getting bald!” W a tc E a E a b y fS H e a l t h i n H o t W e a f l f t e r During hot •weather, mothers should keep a close watch over- babies..

K “o too' SDr° of ttiat—he would Ned, obeying nothing philosophical or studied, drifted along, naught, as he put It to himself, In the maelstrom of Peace Valley. He was Indifferent to the danger of discovery which Dorothy Selden represented. He was sure that Dorothy was “too good a scout” to give him away, and he was equally sure that she wanted to forget him as much as he wanted to forget her. It never occurred to Ned that Doro thy was simply bidiiig her own time, determined that when she struck at him the lovely Mar; Johnston should feel the blow. As a matter of fact, Ned was doing very little thinking. He was creating a fool's paradise which one sentence from Dorothy would de stroy; dreaming of a place In this peaceful little world, whose chief in habitant was Mary. To be received or rejected on his own merits as Claude Dabbs' nephew, and not Loren Bangeley’s pampered and eligible son; surely that would be a triumph worth while. He sought diligently to make himself popular in the store and the village and indispensable at the White house. Ned had the field practically to htm- seli. SaVe for the Saturday to Mon day week-ends, when men appeared at the hospitable Mannheim’s, there were no available swains. It was a time when a cautious or ambitious mdtlier might well have taken alarm, for Mary was indisput ably intrigued. She had never before seen so much of a youth In Ned’s posi tion. This young man had thoughts, Ideas and habits that too closely ap proached her own to admit of only a country store as background. However, being human, Mary did not tell her mother everything. For instance, she simply could not tell her mother that this grocer’s clerk gave her the feeling that she, Mary, was utterly right and charming, no matter what she said or did. It was some thing to treasure up, and remember when she was alone. Mrs. Johnston, like a cornered ani mal, was wholly taken up with one great and pressing problem—how to get out of her comer. Other and lesser problems simply did not exist for her. She disliked inaction and hated the policy of “waiting to see how the cat jumped,” yet there was noth ing for her to do but wait. Always before this, when things became In any way Impossible, Mrs. Johnston had simply turned her back and run away from them. Now, without money to run with, she must stay here In this quiet country place which, like a false prophet, kept breathing “peace, peace” when there was no peace—for her. This morning, In the hope of dis tracting her mother, Mary was urging a ride to Hillsborough, not only as a chance to see the country, but because Mr. Carter said there was an inn there where the food was good. Mrs. Johnston did not look en thusiastic, but intimated to Mary that she did not mind trying. While Mrs. Johnston put on her hat, Mary found Ned in the kitchen, deep In an argument—heated on Mrs. PuI-, slfer’s side—as to some new potatoes for the use of her own family, which she had expected Ned to bring with him. Mary’s entrance hushed the storm, but unfortunately, owing to the clamor that had greeted her, sfie used her employer’s manner. Ned was annoyed. He received his Instructions moodily and went outside to look at his en gine.Mary found her mother looking out of the window at Ned.“Mary, it might be as well not to go, because—” Mary indignantly interrupted. “Why not r • Being somewhat of a diplomat in her relations with her daughter, Mrs. Johnston wisely contented herself with saying: “Dorothy Seiden seemed con cerned to see you riding with the grocer’s boy.” Then she laugtted. Mary!s head went up. “Maybe it would be diplomatic not to use this young man so often,’’ Mrs:- Johnston suggested. “Let him go back to the shop today. Tomorrow we will go with one of the other men as driver.”“And let that Interfering Iittlg cat thinlr we take her seriously?” asked Mary. “Indeed not! I’m going to Hillsborough, and with that young man! If you do not care to come— why. I’ll go alone.”What could her mother do but laugh, and go along, though she thought to herself: “Little fox! What is she up to now.”Before they reached the car she paused to say : “Be very sure I will tnke a good look at this young man! If I like him, we will continue to cham pion him and his driving. If I do not —he’s dropped!” wWe can’t drop him far,” Mary re joined. “He’s got to bring the gro ceries, you know.” For one appreciable second, Nei forgot the chauffeur manner he had Intended to try out on Mary. He stared. Mrs. Johnston was his ex cuse. This was the first day she had consented to ride with them. Ned found himself looking into two sleepy brown eyes that saw more than one guessed, and at one of the handsomest1 women he had seen In many a day. The color of that hair alone, he ad mitted to himself, was enough to make anyone look twice. Her mouth was oddly disconcerting. It looked capa ble of sneering. Then, quite suddenly, she smiled. “If Mother were my sister," Mary thought, watching her with that odd pride in her mother’s beauty that made her depreciate her own, “no one would ever look at me!” Mary paused before she followed her mother Into the car. “Oh, Moth er, just & moment. This Ib Mr. Carter, Mr. Dabbs' nephew, who has been so kind In driving me about.” Following the introduction, Ned helped Mary In very carefully. This was the moment for which he had waited, and Mary had stood the test. She had not “Gartered” him to her mother. Neither Mary nor her mother knew Hillsborough. Ned had visited It sev eral times with Claude Dabbs, and suggested the Iron Hand inn as their destination. The idea was acceptable to Mrs. Johnston, who merely stip ulated, “Anywhere, except Peace Val ley.” Mrs. Johnston was conscious that she was one person too many. It was curious. Not a word or a look that she might object to, yet the feeling was strong. Mrs. Johnston was ir ritated. She had much to worry her. Surely it was impossible that her pre cious, level-headed Mary could be about to further involve them, Mrs. Johnston, who was really tired, tried an experiment. She closed her eyes, complaining that the air made her sleepy. Contrary to her intention, it really had that effect. When she opened them, some fifteen minutes later, Mary was on the front seat with Ned. “Oh, Mother, I didn’t want to dis turb you. Mr. Carter’s been telling me such interesting things about the country.”Mary joined her mother at once, but Mrs. Johnston was not pleased with the result of her experiment. When they had crossed the cobble stone parking space to the entrance; both Mary and Ned waited. Things were In Mrs. Johnston’s hands. She knew it. She could not treat this young man as a paid driver. “Mr. Carter,” she began a little hesitantly, “since we’ve so freely ac cented your uncle’s car and kindness, won’t yeu accept my Invitation to luncheon?” It was very graciously put, bnt Ned knew how little Mrs. Johnston want ed him, even If she was thoroughbred enough to ask him. He thanked her, vowing that he had an errand to do for his uncle but would take them in and introduce them to The Iron Hand. 'He strolled along a quiet residen tial street which terminated in an old graveyard. He sat down on a flat tombstone, and thought about life and Mary. “Hey, Ned, for one minute I thought you were a monument!” , Claude Dabbs was smiling at him over the fence. Ned rose and went to him. "Thank Heaven I saw you first,” Ned said. “I told the Johnstons I had to do an errand for you. Come back with me.”Claude, however, was too busy to do more than stop at a lunch counter near the courthouse, where he had to look up several property records. As they ate he listened absently, Ned thought, to a description of the morn ing’s drive. When they had finished, Claude said he would walk with Ned to the door of the inn. As they reached the inn, the door opened to admit a large party of cheerful farmers’ wives and children. Through the door, which the last lumpy child left wide open, Ned caught a glimpse of Mrs. Johnston, Mary and the proprietor. ■ They were examining a print, hung rather high above the hall wainscoting. . Mrs. Johnston’s glorious hair and strongly modeled head were thrown into relief against the wall. “Quick, C. M. Lookl That’s Mrs. Johnston.” Just how much does Claude Melnotte Dabbs know about Mrs. Johnston? You’ve a big surprise coming! (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Savage, national command er, held their first, meeting with the national chairman of the committee, Mark T. McKee, recently at national headquarters in Indianapolis, Ind. The chairman, vice chairman and the five area chairmen constitute the execu tive committee of tlie national child welfare committee, which is composed of one representative from each state. The executive committee determines tke policies and general direction of child welfare work between national convention dates, when the entire committee meets. The five men represent the entire CTnited States. The appointments, and the states each represents, follow: Area A, John D. Crowley, Cam bridge, Mass.—Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Ehode Tsland and Vermont Area B, Edwin E. Hollenback, Phil adelphia — Pennsylvania, Virginia, New York, Delaware, District of Co lumbia, Maryland, New Jersey and West Virginia. Area C, Guy H. May, Nashville, Tenn.—Tennessee, Louisiana, North Carolina, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Texas. Area D, Dr. L. Mason Lyons, Kan sas City—Missouri, Ohio, North Da kota, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Nebraska. Area E, Louis W. Burford, Denver— Colorado, California, Arizona, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Ore gon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Child welfare work has steadily be come one of the most important phases of American Legion efforts. Under mandate of the national con vention held In Philadelphia last Oc tober, one-half of the income of the Legion’s $U000,000 endowment fund is to be used this year In child wel fare work, the other half for the as sistance of disabled veterans. The Legion recently inaugurated a campaign for improved child welfare laws in various states, and several such laws have been passed through Legion efforts. A minimum legisla tive program has been compiled as a guide. It consists of four provisions —a nonsupport and desertion law, a widowed mother’s allowance law, an unpaid county child welfare board and a central state child welfare bureau. Former World War Vet Touring U. S. on Horse After a three-days rest, Frank M. Heath, a former sergeant In the United States army In the World war, a Le gionnaire, recently departed from Gar field, N. M., on his mare Gypsy Queen to cross Texas and the rest of the Gulf and Soutb Atlantic states on a tour of the United States that started from Silver Spring, Md., In April, 1925. Heath stated In Garfield that he had covered 8,318 miles and was nearly across his thirty-eighth state. The mare was In good shape for some strenuous riding, Including a desert stretch that was still to come. A year ago May 8 Heath was In Wells, M.inn., and after making South and North Dakota was injured by a pack horse at Mammoth, Wyo., re ceiving a broken knee cap which put him in a government hospital for three months. Heath weighs 120 pounds and the mare carries from SO to 100 pounds dead weight. Heath says he is making the journey for his health and a test of the mare’s endur ance. Post Aids WomentS Clubs in Wiping Out Illiteracy The William B. Cairns post of The American Legion, In co-operation with Clie Federation of Women’s Clubs'of Madison, Wls., bas launched a cam paign to wipe out Illiteracy in the county before the next federal census of 1930. The post has compiled the names of all the illiterates in the county and will try to induce them to attend special classes In which to learn to read and write. With the excep tion of very old Illiterates, the Legion naires expect to have every one In the county able to read and write within the next three years. Novel Membership Campaign The DIckey-Springer post of The American Legion In Alamosa, CoIo., recently held a successful membership campaign, following the rules of or ganized baseball. A new member counted as a home run, a transfer equalled a three-base clout, and a 1926 member was good for a two-bagger Kite, Marble Tournament A kite-flying contest for the children of Ford City, Pa., Is being planned by Allied post of the American Legion there. A marble tournament also will be conducted by the post In a sim ilar marble tournament held by the post last year, more than 100 young sters participated.

R iv al S u n R ays Scientists Point Benefits to Be Derived From Use of Sea Food. Philadelphia.—Shades of Apollo and Izaak Walton I Here Is science claim ing that the only rival of the snn Is found in “a poor fish.” We know that Sir Walter Scott sang once, to the effect that “It’s no’ fish ye’re buying—It’s men’s lives." We remember also the lines of an old Scotch song, a fishmonger’s call in which a similar prophetic note was sounded. “Wha’ll buy my caller her- rin’?” the cry runs. “Xe little ken their worth.” •‘0 , you may call them vulgar farin’; .Wives and mithers maist desparin' 1 Ca’ them lives of men.” 1 One hundred years ,after these words rang out In the chill, foggy air of Scottish markets, scientists step from their laboratories long enough to tell us that, next to the sun, “despar in’ wives and mithers” must depend upon a fish to maintain the stalwart limbs and stout backbone of the na tion’s youth. In those few remaining regions of the earth where clothes are incidental, if not negligible, where the sun Is given its chance to feed the bodies of men, we find, as a rule, that the na tives of such Hdens are straight as an arrow, well formed, strong, and happy. It Is when we reach civilization that we encounter frequent deformities, bowed legs, gawky knees, bulging wrists and ankles. Clothes Rob Man of Sun.. The fact that we free to the sun only the few square inches of our face and the backs of ungloved hands is a primary factor in the general ten dency in this and other civilized countries toward rachitic conditions. The average infant is too much over clothed when lying in the sun to de rive its full benefits. Sun porches are light, cheery, and warm; but unless their glass is of a special type none of the helpful ultra-violet rays of the sun make their way inside. Without sufficient sunlight or with out sufficient supply In another form of the factor that is conveyed by the sun's rays, our children develop rick ets, that starvation of bone structures that leaves them soft and flexible, pro- ' during various forms of deformity, in cluding soft teeth, misshapen skulls, jaws and skeletal structures, and even constricted chests. The elements that give proper strength to bones and teeth are cal cium and phosphorus. These two ele ments cannot be utilized in bone growth, however, unless a third factor is present, just as a pile of coal is use less without ignition to convert it into lieat. Like Bones Made of Rubber. This factor is vitamin D. Without this vitamin, calcium phosphate can not be deposited sufficiently in the bony structures of the body. Although bones keep right on growing, the un fortunate cMld\ to whom they belong might as well -have a rubber skeleton if the vitamin deficiency is not cor rected. The action of the ultra-violet rays of the sun upon one of the fatty com ponents of our skin produces vitamin D or its physiological equivalent, ac cording to researches conducted by Huldschinsky, Hess, Shipley, and. other scientists. Sunlight, then, is the natural pro tection against rickets. But civilized man does not lead a natural life. Our mode of dressing and dwelling does not permit natural living. And it is not likely that we shall emulate-the Polynesian soon by discarding our clothing for bared ex istence under a beneficent sun. - When it is known bow important .vitamin D is to life and health, it seems an odd prank of nature that this factor is absent in practically all foods-used for human consumption ex cept the Iver of codfish. Probably nature felt that she was taking ample care of us by giving us sunlight Then she permitted man to discover for himself how prodigally she provides for bis welfare by storing this valu able factor in one of his commonest sources of food. Ons Theory of Scientists. Just how the cod manages to distin guish himself above all other animals of earth, sea and sky by monopolizing the storage of vitamin D is not clearly determined. One theory of scientists has It that the ultra-violet rays of the sun penetrate below-the surface of the ocean-and so Irradiate the cod. This would presuppose that the cod's skin Is especially sensitized to these rays as man’s skin seems to be, just as if both cod and man.were photographic negatives which, upon exposure to ul tra-violet rays, produce a positive effect when developed in the chem istry of the body. It is more likely, however, that the cod gets his sunlight by eating it Study of the habits of the cod in Nor wegian waters and In the waters off Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and Maine have strengthened this theory. P. P. Berg of the Squibb laboratories watched the early spring surge of thousands of cod to the shallower, warmer waters near the Lofoten is lands, where they came to spawn. At this period of a cod’s life he develops a ravenous appetite. And it Is what nature provides to satisfy that hunger that offers another theory in explanation of the fact that cod liver oil is the most prolific source of vi tamin D known to man.Piscatorial Drama. This piscatorial drama is very much like the “house that Jack built.” Great shoals of herring are loosed by nature into the waters near Norway and our northeastern coast just as the cod feels these pangs of hunger. So here is the cod that gives us vltamins.-Here are the squid that are eaten by the herring that are eaten by the cod that gives us the vitamins. Here are the mosses and sea plants that are eaten by the squid that are eaten by the herring that are eaten by the cod that gives us vitamins. Day after day, week upon week, the sun pours its rays down upon these sea plants. The squid themselves do little more than float around near the surface of the sea, absorbing still more ultra-violet rays. From that point on It is obvious how, theoreti cally, the codfish acquires his vast store of vitamin D by literally eating sunshine. It has been only a few years since the existence of vitamin D was recog nized. In fact, its identification came about through experiments by Prof. E. V. McCollum of Johns Hokpins uni versity with cod-liver oil. Prom that moment, the medical profession moved with reinforced courage against the threat of rickets. The late Dr. Emmet Holt, at the time of his death, was stressing the importance of depend ence of sound health in adult life upon building bones, blood and mus cles In childhood. Would Reduce Teeth Ills. It is claimed that, if the perfect con dition of bone, blood and muscle'In new-born children had been main tained in the last century through suf ficient vitamin D supply, dental statis tics would not show that 98 per cent I To Give Away Beams From White House * I Washington.—Sections of Ium- ;; ber from the White House roof - • probably will be scattered as ]; relics to all parts of the conn- •• try.

There would have been less excuse for rheumatism and heart and kidney troubles, which are, In fact, after-effects of some local infection. . ^ Authorities are urging that the growing generation of children be granted the heritage that is their right under the Sun. Plenty of sunlight is advocated, but, at best, the sun alone under modern living conditions cannot assure sufficient vitamin D for a stout- limbed posterity. Dr. Morris Fishbein, editor of the Journal of the American Medical Asso ciation, states in a recent article; "One of the greatest discoveries of the last five years has been the estab lishing of the fact that cod-liver oil has specific properties in preventing the development of bone diseases of infancy and in aiding' proper growth. Under the unfeigned encouragement of the medical profession, child wel fare agencies have preached the doc trine of liberal administration of cod- liver oil In Infancy.” Doctor Pishbein’s article also stated that the council on pharmacy and chemistry of the Amer ican Medical association agreed upon advising “routine administration of cod-liver oil to all growing infants provided the product had been stand ardized as to its actual potency.” Every Wharf Had Its Keg. Long before we had knowledge of vitamins, cod-liver oil was used; Coast dwellers and seafaring folk drank it in quantities as a means for withstand ing exposure to cold weather and as a tonic. Their method of extracting it was crude. Every wharf had its keg sitting in the sun, the barrel full of cod livers, the oil separating and rising to the top where It was skimmed off. Modem methods of rendering oil in clude establishment of plants near enough to the fishing banks so that livers may be received fresh from the catch with a minimum of vitaminic loss through exposure to the^air. Prom a modest’ position as a by product of the fishing industry, the se curing of livers for their oil is as suming an important and valuable major position. It is estimated that the world’s output of cod-liver oil in 1925 was approximately 2,800,000 gal lons, or 94,000 barrels of 30 gallons each. When it is known that it takes about six tons of codfish to yield enough liver to produce one barrel of cod-liver oil, some idea can be gath ered of the gain that thousands of fish ing families experience as a result of the laboratory discovery of vitamin D. More Vitamin A Than Milk. While cod-liver oil is essential chief ly for its content of vitamin D, the fact that it is also a rich storehouse of vitamin A . is by way of being a bonus that nature has thrown in for good measure. Vitamin A promotes growth and builds resistance against pulmonary infections, colds, pneu monia, tuberculosis, and the like. It is as essential as vitamin D, and the complete absence of one or the other generally results fatally. Vitamin A, unlike vitamin D, is present in other foods, principally In butter from cows that have been fed on green food, in milk and cream, and in green vege tables such as spinach. When it is known, however, that one pint of cod-liver oil is as rich In vi tamin A as at least 1,200 pints of the best grade A milk, the greater con centration of the factor in oil becomes apparent. ’' Knowing that only two sources of the vital vitamin D exist, how truly we may say that a poor fish is ele vated to a position where it alone vies with the sun in the service that both render mankind. It is In this service that hundreds of thousands of men are fishing the seas for better babies. With the promise of a sturdier race through ample'access to the essential vitamin D1 we may well sing along with Sir Walter Scott, “it’s no’ fish ye're buying; it’s men’s lives.” Can Do AU but Act, So She Runs Shows Hartford, Conn.—Miss Marian Pul ler, one of the few American women who are professional stage managers, has a record many young women would envy. She was on her way to success as an artist, but her desire to act inter fered with her studies, so she turned to the stage. Then the war came and she became a Ked Cross worker, In which capacity she won the Croix de Guerre and other decorations. After her war experience she says: “Acting was the one thing I just couldn’t do, so I turned to stage managing.” AMERICAN WOMAN RUNS HISTORIC FRENCH HOSTELRY <S>- Wife of Frenchman Amazes Village Peasants by Her Business Energy. Les Andelys, France-T-A brisk, cur ly-haired American woman, graduate of Wellesley college . In 1012, is tlte hostess of one of France’s most fa mous historic inns. Ume. Gwyndd Champsaur, formerly Miss Weller of New Xork and Mon treal, assists her French husband to dispense to Europeans and Americans the kind of hospitality to which both are accustomed. Between them they contrive with equal facility corn on the cob and calvados, the famous ap ple brandy of Normandy. Steam heat, baths and an electric sewing machine have been installed In the old-time inn, known as the Hos- tellerie du Grand Cerf, “historic monu ment” of Prance, on the DcauviUe road. Modem celebrities stop at the hotel, which has been patronized by famous people for 400 years. Walter Scott and Victor Hugo stopped there, and the father of Henry IV, Antoine de Bourbon, was brought to the house mortally wounded after the seige of Rouen. The building is -decoirated with the salamander device of Francis I, patron of its builder, Nicholas Duval. Madame Champsaur does many things that amaze the village peasants, although they tare her sworn friends. They never grow accustomed to the sight of her driving an antomobtle bareheaded,.with a pair of Chow dogs on the seat beside her. They remember when she pitched' Into the labor of preparing In three weeks at the cabled demand/ of. an American millionaire a country cot tage, with baths, near.the inn..

The cottage was ready when needed. Theiold inn is a treasure house of antiques. As It passed from hand to hand many relics of the past disap peared. Peasants occasionally bring these relics to the American woman, without explanation. They appropri ated the objects to save them from vandalism, she says. Now It’s Hard to Keep the Girls on the Farm Washington.—Even the girl ‘won’t stay “down on the farm.” In a report to the general bureau of agricultural emonomics. only 4 per cent of the girls who said they liked farm life expressed a preference for farming as a livelihood. Teaching is preferred by 55 per cent, 7 per cent prefer nursing or social work, 15 per cent choose business, 2 per cent choose the arts and' 9 per !cent express a wish for other miscellaneous occupations. " Vi;r High Requisite . for Marketing Standardization Affords Basis for Pooling of Va rious Products. (Prepared by' the United States Department of AgrlCBlture.) Standarization of farm products as a fundamental factor In successful marketing was stressed by Lloyd S. Tenny, chief of the bureau of agricul tural economics, United States De partment of Agriculture, addressing the Pan-American. . Standardization conference at Washington. “Standardization,” Mr. Tenny said, “is the definite foundation on which rests most ot the individual functions which make up the whole process of marketing. Itis essential, to the main tenance of the bureau’s nationwide market news service; It is basic to the use of credit; it is the one safe ba sis for advertising.Facilitates Settling Disputes. Standardization facilitates the set tling of disputes as between shippers and dealers; it is the only safe basis upon which equitable inspection serv ices can be built at shipping points and markets; it is especially useful In co-operative marketing by affording a basis for pooling the products of va rious growers; it is a prime requisite in administering the United States warehouse act.” Mr. Tenny described the develop ment of the bureau’s standardization program since 1914 when a market news service on fruits and vegetables was established. Standards for more than 50 different farm products have been established by the bureau and are in wide use, the cotton and wool standards being applied internation ally. Certificate of Quality. The grading and stamping of ,beef at leading1 slaughter markets so that consumers may have what is prac tically a government certificate of quality stamped on commercial cuts ' is the bureau’s development in stand ardization. Prime and choice grades of beef are stamped by the bureau’s inspectors, aud should the system prove practicable it may be extended later to other grades of beef. Delegates to the standardization congress visited the bureau’s labora tories May 10 to see a demonstration of farm products, standards, especially those for cotton, hay, wool, fruits and vegetables, tobacco and eggs. Sprays Not Practical to Use on Perennial Weeds Chemical sprays, because of the ap parent ease of application, have for a long time attracted attention and aroused the interest of farmers as a control for weeds. Up to now, how ever, the cost of application, when the effectiveness of the sprays lias been considered,- has made the use of poi son sprays on weeds unprofitable. Most sprays quickly kill the parts exposed, says Charles P. Rogers, dep uty to the Colorado state entomologist for weed control. Results of work at the Colorado experiment station with a number of different arsenical compounds indicate, however, .that they are practically useless against the root systems of perennial weeds. The cost of repeated sprayings with the possible damage to the soil gives the advantage, so far at least, to the mechanical means of weed eradicat ion. Salt in large enough quantities will kill any Weed pest, according to Mr. Rogers. It can be used profitably on small patches where It is necessary to check the spread of a serious weed pest. . It is expensive, however, and damages the soil unless it can be washed out quickly after the- plants have been killed. Winter Vetch and Rye Make Early Hog Pasture Rye soWn during August or early In September will make a very satis factory early crop. Winter vetch can be sown with the rye and make still a better combination, says a writer in the Indiana Farmers’ Guide. If vetch has never been grown on the farm from 25 to 30 pounds of vetch seed and 3 to 5 pecks of rye would be a suitable amount to sow. In the spring as soon as the ground is suitable to work, Canada field peas and oats caD be sown to come on when the rye has passed its stage of use fulness as pasturage. If rape-seed is sown with the peas and oats it will provide grazing for a- longer period as the rape will come on after the oats and peas have matured.

The big coffee pot, known thru out the length and breadth of the laud, seen and admired by every visitor to old Salem is still on- the job, one of the landmarks of our ancient - Morav ion town, gigantic container which Jf filled with the delectable drink would probably be able to supply" half of the city population with a cup of the city’s population with a cup of-the steam ing black coffee • Many fantistic stories concern ing the big coffee po.t’s origin have surrounded it with a mysterious glamor. But it’s chief xlairh to fame perhaps lies in the fact that it served as a big "advertisement for the city. The pot'was erected in. 1858 by Julius Mickey, tinsmith of the Sa lem tialony, the first 'inan, it is said to Have ever sold cooking stoves in this section of the State.

Putting It Over Father. Father’s day dawns—Over his protest,” tbe New York Times headlines a story of Sunday. Sunday was Father’s day. Not so long ago -Mother had a day. Mother submitted meekly; father howled. ‘•I think it’s a lot of bulk.” "Someone is trying to work those Lindy ties off on us.” “ I prefer buying tny own cigars.” Such were the responses of three Fathers to the Times question as to their opinion of a Day. Father’s day is a lo t. of bunk; Mother’s day is characterized by a measure of bunk, too, although we hesitate to 'low-rate Mother’s day as long as the Mothers have 110 complaint to make. If they waul a Day, they certainly are entitled to it. But why wish a Day off on Father. He is not given to slop- pinesf; he doesn’t waut anyone to be sloppy ■ over him. We doubt whether MotherJioes but she hasn't objected yet.—High Point Enter prise. Cigarettes Again Sold In Kansas. The lowly • cigarette which has been an outlaw in Kansas for near ly 20 years has again come into its own and is now being sold legally under a law enacted by the last leg islature. Kansas newspaper pub lishers have begun suit to test the constitutionality of that part of the law which prohibits cigarette ad vertising iu papers published iii Kansas. The law also prohibits cigarette placards in - a merchant’s show window; The cigarettes how ever, may be exposed' in a show c|se without advertising. . • Licenses to sell cigarettes cost the merchants in Iirst and second class cities $50 a year. The fee Lu smaller towns is $25 a year. _ Before the law_ was repealed boot-_ legging of cigarr-ettes in Kansas was about as profitable business as bootlegging corn liquor in North Carolina. Forty head of registered Guern sey cattle including several calves, sold at Asheboro Tecently brought $5,560 to the owners making the con signments; It is a pity that IindberghjS flight hadn’t, occurred during the time that SnytJer murder .trial had all tljef rolit Allen. aud] and*- » Under the beleif that in a re publican form of government that the peope rule, and that an official is a servant aud not a lord, and that any citizen, however humble, had a right to inquire into his offi cial conduct, I Wrote Mr., A. T. Allen, State Superintendentof pub lic Instruction, two cp’n letters concerning the administration of his office' in which the public is vi tally interested. I sent him a copy of each letter. And while- I -have received letters from many sections of she State thanking me^for mak ing the inq'uiries and urging me to to continue to press them, I have received not one word from Mr. Al-. Ien. He does not ,seem to -care what the public thinks, or that it£ any of the 'public’s business how-:; much of the State’s money he spends, or how he spends it. He' certainly thinks it is none of my business. ; Under Mr. Allen it costs more to run the superintendent’s office one weeks that it cost under Dr. Jo.ynerj to run the same office for one year| and yet the school under Joynei| were as good as they were uudeij Alleu, many of them better. ] Itis true that we have better* houser and better equipment jiow | but the teaching is no better, it's the teaching that counts, not the houses and equipment. ■'I am not charging Mr. Allen with-dishonesty. - I do not think is dishonest, but I do think he is wantonly and toolishly extravagant He does not seem to understand the people of North Carolina. If he ever knew them since getting-it- to office he has forgotten them. (Sonietimes-an office affects a mat); that way). He'either greatly over estimates his own ability or be greately underestimates the- ability of the people'of North Carolina. K we may judge what he thinks by what he does, there is nobody in the State oii side of his cffi e Raleigh capable of managing any part of the school work. And yef there is hardly a county in the State that does not have men connected with ; the school, work that are just as capable as Mr. Al leu or any of his so-called, experts, and if they were allowed to do so, would run their respective 'schools better than they are being ruu un der Mr. Allen’s supervision, and-by so doing save an enormous .sum ol money each year. * It takes more than a $l,coo a day, yes, it takes more’ than.$1,400 -a'day to run Allen's office. And while he is spending this eno mous sum of money—I. think wasting much of it—the various t-ax collect ors of the State are advertising and selling the homes- of thousands-. or as good men as Mr. Allen, for tax- es these men are unable to nay. And when Mr. Allen is asked about the enormous expense of , his office, he answers .by keeping his mouth shut, that it is-uoue of your business. Everybody can see that .$20,000 could be saved ,each year, and the schools improved, b y letting, the Sunimer School faculties issue the teacjier’s certificates But if' that was idone»it would cripple, the ma- chiii.e, -and the machine is vastly more important to Mr. Allen-than the teachers or the children. .

Won’t some clearheaded Democrat write us a law? — J. F. Spainhour, Mor gan ton. N. C.' Capital Punishment. We haven’t heard a single squawk from any of the sob sisters of the State who so vehemently a few months 0 back were declaring that we should abolish,capital pun ishment in North Carolina, since that horrible affair took place in Burke county where- a pure’ inno cent little working girl died in de fense of her honor at the hands of a beast in human form. . Even the pious Dr. Oscar Hay wood and that wonderful dreamy, William Thomas Best who writes so glibly of the State roasting at the little octagronal room in the State prison every time "a felon is out to death are struck dumb be fore the awful happening in Burke. Ask any man or woman to place themselves in the place of that sor rowing mother in Burke or the brothers of the'girl, who was so ruthlessly .slain what they think .Should be done with the black j^east ■ and, see. wBaf- the an wer would be. What would Haywood' say? W hat would Bost say? Wnat would that Asheville society for the abolition of capital punishment say? stDeathis too good for the brute who killed this mountain lass aud while we are. at all times law-abid ing and believe in tbe law taking its ,course we can’t see how the men of the mountain could have been restraitied from Ivnching this black devil had they caught him the night of his diabolical crime. The only thing to be considered it would seem in such cases; is that they get the right man. Sometimes we wouder.if it would not be beist to execute these crimi nals iu the home county ygheie their crimes are committed and l<et it.be public? A brute like the one that killed the Burke county girl is tried, convicted, sentenced to death taken, to Raleigh, there pampered and fed. for perhaps a month, walks fOUt to the chair, a hero iu his own Jght and to hear him tell it goes straight home to glory. The popu lation at the scene of the crime have forgotten about it by this time the sentence is executed and soon along comes another beast and commits a similar crime It has been only a short while since a-like. crime, was cbtnmitled at a ’State institute at Morganton, although the...victim was not killed, the negro.' was-ap prehended ,'tried^and duly execut ed yet it-seems that it did not deter another from attempting to commit the same offense and did commit one almost as great, j Had Arthur Montague, negro, been -hanged from a scaffojd on the •Catawba river hill would this riot have been a lesson.to the brtile who wantonly took tjje life of.-Gladys Kiiikaid?

With this issue The Record com pletes 2S years of service to the people of Mocksville and Davie couutv. The Record was founded in'1899 by Mr. E. H. Morris. The present editor and owner arrived in OVIocksville 20 years ago from East Tennessee and purchased the plant ^and good will of the paper. . Dur dug these 20 years the paper has never missed an issue and never came out a day late. The same •editor has been on the job without ja change in ownership or manage ment. The Record was born a Re. publican paper and will continue to preach and teach that faith as long as the present editor lives. We IiaVe spent our best years here, in trying to build up a bigger and better town and county. The po pulation of the town has doubled since we took charge of the paper, and the county has made wonder ful progress along many lines. In the past 20 years many fine cattle and poultry farms have sprung up in the county, aud we cau now boost of as fine herds of cattle as _ can be found iu North Carolina. A- 16ng with the better, farms have come fine school „ buildings, fine fpads and handsome public build ings. Davie county is therefore getting much good adverting as a result of all these improvements. The Record has worked early aud ,late for anything aud everything "that would help the county, ,and many of its fondest dreams • ’Have been realized. Thereremaius inuch work yet to be done, and this •paper will do all in its power to ' help along all progressive lines, We have tried to giye everybody a fair deal ,and have £ forgotten politics 1 when any big improvement was »0 • be .made. We realize that it takes the united efforts of all the people •to accomplish the most good for any town or community, and • that ,Democrats and Republicans, Bap tists aud Methodists and all others must work together if anything is to be accomplished. We have tried to give our subscribers a^good, cleau newspaper, leaving out the sprdid, scandals aud telling mote good , news than bad. We have tried to build up instead of tear down Our thanks are due our subscribers and advertisers for the support and co-ooeration they have . given us. We shall strive to merit a continuance of their support, aud will always.be found . fighting for wiiat we. believe to be right. After spending 35,years in the newspaper t nefs we have learned longsince Republicans were not an- ;4pd that .all Democrats were nftt devils—and that Baptists were not the, only folks that were trying to'five.Christian lives. ■ eran Mr. Pink Turner, oi^e. of Davie county’s oldest men died at his home on R I, two miles southwest of Mochsville early Thursday morn ing, following an illness of about two weeks with heart dropsy. The funeral services were conducted by’ Rev. W. Iv. Reeves, of Winston- Salem Friday morning at it o’clock, aud the body laid to rest iu the family burying grouud. Mr. Turner is survived by his widow, two daughters, Mrs. Maxie Swice- good, Miss Daisy Turner, and one son Green Turner, all of R. 1. Mr. Turner'vvas a Confederate veteran and served his country during the days of the Civil war. He was a good man, beloved by all who knew him. The Record has lost a good friend in the death of Mr. Turner. Mr Turnerwasnearly 91 years old. Ray Parks Loose. Ray Parks, the young man who wps arrested in Coolaegiee last Tuesday on a charge of desertion aud nou support of his wife and baby in Iredell and placed in jail "Bere Tuesday night about mid night, was released late Saturday afternoon after he had raised a $1,000 justified bond for his ap pearance in the Recorder's court Monday tnorniug, July 18. Parks maintained a hunger strike until he was released Saturday afternoon, having taken no solid food for four days.

Henry Morgan and Heury Pace, white men of Salisbury, were arrest ed iti Jerusalem township Saturday, afternoon by Deputy Gregory and son and lodged in jail. They were caught with two U. S.

Davie , Gets More Cash. - As a result of the last legisla ture increasing the school equali zation fund, Davie.county will re ceive this year from the State the sum of $21,664.93. Last year the amount received from the State was $4,999" 63, which is an increase of more than 400 per cennt. Under this new law the school tax rate will be uniform in Nort Carolina— the taxpayers paying accordiug to what they have. The wealthy counties will of course bear a part of the burden that has been carried, by poor counties. Heretofore Davie ccounty was forced to pay a 75 cent tax rate on the $100 valuation while our neighbor Forsyth paid only a rate of 29 cents on the $100 valuation.

So there we have it—Iace and the eternal feminine —which Is ever and for all time a truism of the mode. Between many laces, choose the love liest, this is the complex confronting fashion’s followers today. It requires a fine gift of discrimination to be able X A M ESSAGE FROM PA R IS ' frock. And now there is every prom ts* of a hue and clamor for velvet hand bags throughout the fashion cen ters of the world—and the vogue is ODiy at its beginning. Elegance is the keynote to the vel vet bag which has become a part of Ute summer ensemble. These new en velope purses and hand bags are 100 per cent exquisite even unto the slight est detail of their finely wrought metal finishings. And their linings! To see within one of these soft-shirred bags is like looking into the heart of a fotver so dainty is its colorings and all that goes toward achieving an esthetic effect The vogue for matching the bag to some detail of the costume and espe cially to millinery Is charmingly inter preted with velvet as the medium. With the sheer midsummer frock there is nothing prettier than the pic turesque pastel-colored crin capelines handed with velvet ribbon of the same to select one from among a galaxy of lace gowns, each of which seems pret tier than the other. There are the modish all-black lace transparencies which pose so alluringly over pink silken slips, competing with delicate beige Iace frocks, filmy as a fleeting summer cloud, and—glory of lace glories—those pastel-tinted lace gowns, which have just recently en tered the list. The fashioning of the lace gown is about as varied as are the types of Iace from which to choose. A model which is as practical as it is charm ing, follows the redingote silhouette. The beauty of this version of the lace dress is that it can be worn over any colored slip, being detachable and an entirely separate proposition. See the winsomeness of tills style in the pic ture to the right. Such a garment made of ecru or beige Chantilly lace is effective over either a self-colored underfrock or over one of pale pink. 6 ^ TWO PRETTY AFTERNOON FROCKS tlle velvet band bag repeating Wenticai shade. .A 'comlUnation extremely flattering Uio 0Ilacc or cllifTon frock is that of velvot ? ,land bag m®tched to the shoulder flower.

NO TROUBLE TO DESCEM GRADE Cause of More Worry to Motorist Than Any Oth er Car AilmentJ The bugaboo of descending steep grades probably worries more motor ists than any other problem of auto mobile operation. This is especially true In the eastern and western parts of the United States, where there are hilly or mountainous sections. Descending a steep grade need not be a hazardous adventure, provided a few simple rules are observed. Rules for Descending Hills. If the grade is exceedingly steep, always throw the car into low gear. This offers resistance to the down ward pull, because the rear wheels have to “turn the engine over.” Al ways keep the throttle closed, but do not shut off the ignition, as this is not necessary. Driving down a steep grade in this way not only keeps the car under control, but makes exces sive use of the brakes unnecessary, thus diminishing brake wear. To stop the car while descending a grade, apply both the brake and the clutch. But if you want to stop sud denly, apply both brakes and do not touch the clutch until the car Is near ly at a standstill. If the rear wheels start to slide, release the brakes for an instant and tben apply them again. When you stop on a grade In the city, not only apply the hand brake and leave the lever In reverse gear, but go further than this to be abso lutely safe and turn the front wheels so that one of them rests against the curb. When You Roll Backwards. The experience of having your car stall on a grade and start rolling backwards need not be nerve-wrack ing. If this happens when you are on a country road, let the car back to wards the side' of the road and partly across the road. Of course, you can not do this if there are ditches. If you cannot steer the car to the side of the road, and the hand and foot brakes are both necessary to keep the car from rolling, shift into neutral and then try to start your engine. Open the throttle about one quarter, shift into first, and then, just as you let In the clutch, release the hand brake and the foot brake at the same time. Brakes that work as efficiently in re verse as forward, do much to prevent “that panicky feeling” when you are forced to stop on a steep grade. Big Increase in Autos Predicted for America That 40,000,000 automobiles will be running about In America by 1940, if the percentage of increase of the past several years is maintained, is the opin ion of H. C. Crowell, assistant chief engineer of the Pehnsylvania railroad', according to a statement recently be fore the annual convention of the American Railway Engineering Asso ciation at Chicago. “At present the automobile is talcing a prodigious amount of business, both freight and passenger, from the rail roads,” he said. “In fact, motor com petition, along with the additional hun dreds of miles of paved roads every year, have cut railroad receipts to the extent that many lines have aban doned formerly profitable suburban schedules. “Every railroad In America is seek ing ways and means of making up this loss, but little progress has been made.” One-Armed Auto Driver Displays His Dexterity Outstanding among the 10,000-odd taxi drivers of Paris, France, Is Victor Coubard, crippled French war veteran who, though he lost his left arm at Verdun, has since driven 500,000 miles through the streets of Paris without causing a single accident of any kind. With extraordinary dexterity Cou bard manages to make his remaining arm do the work of two. Eis taxi running at full speed, Coubard lets go of the steering wheel for .a fraction of a .second so as to enable his only hand to blow the horn at street cross ings or apply the emergency brakes, according to circumstances. LukewarmWaterShould Be Used to Wash Auto No automobile owner should forget that unusual care should be taken In washing a new car during. the first few months of use. The best varnish requires consider able time to harden. Even though the car has been out of the factory several months, the paint is soft, and until It hardens, the varnish Is easily scratched. Only castile soap or non- alkali soaps should be used for the removal of grease. The castile soap can be obtained in powdered form,- and Is not of the finest and purest grade. Gasoline is out of the question because it tends to cut and scar the varnish. Lukewarm water should be used. Hot water will dull the. finish, and cold water will-not serve well with the soap. Accumulation .of mud and dust should be carried off. by means of a six-inch stream of water from the hose instead of being washed with a sponge. This point should be watched carefully. It is very easy to Scratch the varnish with a sponge, because of the grit collecting under neath it , After a good rinsing, the varnish should be dried by means of a chamois skin. The chamois skin for this use can be obtained in large sizes. To keep the skin clean, wring it out very often in clear water. A long, straight sweeping movement of the chamois produces better results than a rotary motion. Clamp to Hold Inner Tubes Is Very Handy When repairing inner tubes on the road, a clamp of the kind shown In the drawing will be found convenient It consists of a base of one-inch wood and a length of three-fourth inch strap Iron, bent to a U-shape to fit snugly around three sides of the wooden base. The ends of the iron Handy Innor-Tube Clamp. clamp are drilled and. It is then at tached to pivot on one end of the base, as Indicated. In use, the tube is placed on the base, with the place to be patched in the center, and the clamp Is then brought down to hold the tube securely while it Is patched. —Vincent J.

It works. DR. W. B. OtLDWELL AT THE AGS OF 6S How to Keqi Bowels Regular To Dr. W. B. Caldwell, of Monti- cello, BI., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel that so many constipated men, women, children, and particularly old folks, had to be kept constantly “stirred up” and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. IVhile he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all headaches, biliousness, indigestion and stomach misery, he did not believe that a sickening “purge” or “physic” was necessary. In Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin he discovered a laxative which helps to establish natural bowel “regularity” even for those chronically constipated. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin not .only causes a gentle, easy bowel movement but, best of all, It never gripes, sick ens, or upsets the system. Besides, it is absolutely harmless, and so pleasant that even a cross, feverish, bilious, sick child gladly takes it , Buy a large 60-cent bottle at any. store that sells medicine or write “Syrup Pepsin,” Montieello, P.linois, for a FREE SAMPLE BOTTLE and just see for yourself.

After seeing Mrs. Johnstor. at the inn, Dabbs tells Ned that he has something that ho wants to get off his mind. CHAPTER V—Continued —9— Claude Dabbs leaned forward and looked- He was long about It and said nothing. Neither Mary nor her bother saw them. They were en grossed In the print Mary was dis cussing it with the proprietor, while Mrs. Johnston examined it ClMide quietly put out his hand and closed the door. ‘‘Handsome woman, isn’t she” said Ned. “Absolutely different in every way from her daughter. Did you ever see such a lovely contrast as they make':” Siill Claude did not speak. He stood staring before him. Then, no ticing that Ned was looking at him, he pulled himself together, muttering Eomething about a headache. Ned was concerned. He offered to attend to Claude’s business and drive him home. He was sure Mrs. Johnston wouldn't mind in the least. Or, he could arrange with some one to bring the truck back, and Claude could oc cupy the front seat with him. Claude shook his head. “It isn’t anything, my boy. Just a headache. Get them often. Guess I drove the ear up too fast and had the sun in tuy eyes. Ton stick to your job.” He was off down the street, leaving Ked protesting, A moment later, Mrs. Jolmston and Mary came out into the cunshine.**«*»*• In the library that evening Claude Ms far from being in his usual form. He was fidgety and restless, unable to settle down. Ned comfortably ar ranged himself, lit his cigarette and asked: “Have you always lived In Peace Tahey, C. M.?" Claude started and gave Ned a searching look. “Just about. I was the cnly son of Wy father, and he was a grocer, too. He wasn’t a very good one. Good man—but not a good grocer. No judg ment, Credit to everybody and never pressed a bill. He and Mom had ideas heyond grocering for me. They sent Be to Rutgers to get an education, but I only stayed three months. I got into « kinda wild set.” "At RutgersV” “i’eh, I g0t gamblln' and lost fifty doliars and I got behind another fifty io niy expense. Gee! It was tough.

Never went back h!116*1’ 1Cv fatller Hied and I had to Oke on Hie grocery and run It, and— that’s all.” “Take you up 0n that.” Claude laughed. “It’s true, and mts.what’s eating me tonight Here iio* 1 my forlY-Seven years, cau- I us atl(i careful-like, and never once Aa/0 ai"' (lld anything real brash, out "llC" J’on set to forty-seven with- ,1 Jllly one really belonging to you, fort • a man think hard. • At MoTscvim a man’s In. a position to Mm Sllrvey of Hfe, and—oh well,‘ lllWs it amount to after all?” itmt .S1”ll(;<1’ ,,I[ Hot you’ve done ln ten days than I have in all NMll5 sinen years.” tboi' ,11S lleaIi “You can’t pull I've I, 'ViUl me’ c’ M- You forget ■ife ,T lvillellinS you conduct your auil business for awhile.”. He leaned back to survey this new phase of the versatile 0. M. Somehow he had never contemplated Claude Dabbs as restless and discontented. To his astonishment, Claude did not wait to analyze or be analyzed fur ther. He rose, crossed to the door, and jerking his head toward the office announced that he had to wrestle with an old account Ned, wholly unprepared tor this move, had no time to think of any thing to stop him but he had no de sire to sit there reading and smoking alone. Aunt Lyddy met ..him In the hall on her way upstairs. Eight o’clock, or half-past eight was her hour for re tirement She lofiked at Ned with some surprise. “Going out for a walk, Aunt Lyd- dy. Uncle Claude's busy.” “Suffering Saintsl It’s bedtime. Well, don’t get Into any more mischief than is natural and can’t be helped." Sho yawned a good-night as the door closed, and took her way to bed. Ned went past the lighted window of the office, little guessing that I I “It’s More Than Twenty Years Ago.” Claude Dabbs was struggling through one of the crucial moments of his life. The woman whom Claude had seen at the Iron Hand inn, might have evolved herself out of the Polly John ston he had known. He wished he had been able to study her unobserved and for a longer time. If it was Polly, what a wonderful thing life was. To make out of that discontented, am bitious drudge, the woman he had seen today! He commenced several Imaginary interviews and stopped them, laughing at himself. He kept saying “if,” yet he felt sure that it was Polly. He imagined speaking to her, meeting her. What would her face look like as It turned toward him? He remembered how it had looked this afternoon when he saw her in the Iron Hand inn as she spoke to the girl. The girl! Absorbed in the thought of Polly, he had forgotten the girl. Who was she? Had Polly adopted her, or— Dabbs smote his desk with his fist and rose from his chair. He began walking up and down, trying to piece Polly’s life together, thinking, think ing, stopping, beginning again, with a new thread each time, but all pulled him back to the same question. He bent over his desk, writing numerous letters—all to one woman. Finally he leaned back In his chair, tore up the last note and thrust It deep-into the pile already in the waste basket. The thing would not solve itself. He was still at sea as to his first move.Ned1 thrusting his head into the doorway to say good-night, found a weary-looking, grim-mouthed man. This was so unlike Claude’s usual face and greeting that he was puzzled. Claude stopped him. “Don’t mind the way I look and act tonight I’ve got something on my mind. Something personal, and if I find it’ll help any telling it, you’re the one I’ll come to.” ‘Tm your man, any hour of the day or night Uncle, if I can really help you out”When he had gone, Claude closed the door heavily and went back to the desk. He gave up letter writing for the night and sat there,'absorbed in his thoughts. CHAPTER VI Though it was late, Ned could not sleep. Deciding to read awhile, he lit the student lamp, propped himself up on his pillow and picked up a book. He looked up as Claude Dabbs en tered his room. “Ready to drop off, Ned?” he in quired tentatively. “Not a bit of it All sails set for reading half the night,” Ned assured him. “Come in and smoke, 0. M.” Claude entered. Ned wondered what this midnight visit meant He looked at Claude with a smile, and Claude, knocking the ashes from his cigar into a little blue vase, said: “Ned, I told you about my being at Rutgers for three months and never getting back. But I didn’t tell you ail." “No, I don’t think you did.” “There was a—a girl there.” “Ah, no man ever does tell all about himself and a woman, does he?” “Well, it Isn’t so easy to tell.” “Nothing about one’s life and a woman ever is,” Ned answered, as one deeply experienced in the world and women. “Why, If I tried to explain to myself, lei alone you, what earthly attraction I ever tchnd ht SNcruthy Sel den, I’d just stampeils.” "But this is different. Ifll probably do me good to talk it out m i be done with it By the way—it isn’t known In Peace Valley.” Ned nodded, understandingly. “There was a young servant girl in the house where I was boarding. Now, this girl—well, an uncle of hers turned up one day with a pile of money, but he said every girl should have a hus band. The girl was a regular terror for hating the men. I didn't blame her, being waitress and chambermaid at our boarding house was enough to sour any woman on young men. “To make a long story short, the uncle was dying and he’d had an awful time finding the girl. She was the last of his family. Yethesaidhe wouldn’t leave her a cent of his money unless she got married. She hadn’t a fellow. His doctor told her the old man was getting low and there wasn’t much time. He’d made a will and everything. It was quite a pile, and she got it all, providing she married before he died. She was in an awful stew about it. She hadn’t told any one in the house yet. I doubt if she’d told me if it hadn’t just happened so. You see, she kinda trusted me and she wanted that money bad. Wanted to make herself into a lady. She had great ideas. “Well, there we were. She was In a funk, and I was In a funk that night. I’d come home ready to kill myself because there was the tele gram from Mom. I hadn’t got the money to get home to Pop, and Mom said he was dying. “Well, there she was fixing up my room. She always left my room to the last because she’d got to know Pd never make the row the others did or tell on her. I guess she kinda liked me. She was the only person I had to talk to, so I blurted out my troubles. She thought a moment and then she came out with hers. She hated men and didn’t want to get married, or so she said—and I—well, I didn’t care what I did, just so that I could get home, in time, to Pop.” He paused, glanced at Ned, then took up his confession. “Well, the up shot of it was, I couldn’t borrow the money from any of the boys. I went with her to a country justice of the peace, who didn’t know either of us, and we got married. I had promised that for five hundred dollars Pd do it, and never trouble her again. She could get a divorce for desertion whenever she liked." He looked at Ned, as though ex pecting an Interruption, but Ned sim ply stared at him. In the next installment Claude tells more of his amazing mar riage to Mrs. Johnston. Police Sent Three Clergy men to Convince Woman She Was Wrong. Berlin.—Though reproaches contin ue to be cast upon the old Puritan town of Salem, In Massachusetts, for Its trials and executions of alleged witches, it is recalled by the Lokal Anzieger that there were similar oc currences In this very learned and philosophic Prussian capital at a much later date. It was not until December 13, 1713, that King Fred erick William I put an end forever to the trying of women for witchcraft, and it was 15 years later that the last “witch” occupied a cell In the Stadtvogtei prison. In this city. Denounces Self. The person- in question was Doro thea Steppen, the daughter of a mil ler, who was sent to prison for her wayward and dissolute Ufa She would have been released after serv ing a brief sentence had she not sud denly denounced herself as a witch. She declared with intense earnestness that the devil had appeared to her in person, and that she had signed an unholy com pact with him, for which he paid her ten ducats, and under which he was to direct her In all P 1 Trying to Convince Her That She Was Innocent manner of evil. She knew, of course, that under the royal decree she could not be burned at the stake, as al leged witches had formerly been, or even tried and punished in any way. So she thought that this was an easy .way of obtaining the notoriety which she craved and of annoying the courts, against which she had a grudge. Moreover, she was comfort ably lodged and well fed in the prison and did not object to remaining there a while at public expense. Police Embarrassed. The authorities were much embar rassed to determine what to do with her. They could scarcely turn loose by force a self-confessed witch, and she stubbornly declined to improve the opportunities of escape which they gave her. Finally, three clergymen, Jabionski, Steinberg and Vogel, were sent to her by the court, and the unique spectacle was presented of these officers trying to persuade and convince her that she was innocent, while she tried as hard to convince them that she was guilty! For some time they could produce no impres sion upon her, but at last she grew weary of the game—“bored,” she her self expressed it, by their importuni ties—and confessed her innocence of witchcraft, her only offense being In concocting the story about the devil. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Campaign That Gave Vast Area to Whites But for the success of Col. George Wrlglit and his soldiers In the bat- tle of Spokane Plains, a few years before the Civil war, development of the entire .Northwest might have been indefinitely deferred: It was this baffle that climaxed the campaign that re sulted in crushing Indian resistance throughout a region as large as the present state of Oregon and made pos sible the settlement, of the inland empire by white Americans giving .a new impulse to economic develop ment' Earlier forces that had at tempted to rout the Indians had been -armed with defective, short range weapons, but Colonel Wright’s men were equipped with the first high powered rifles and howitzers employ ing explosive shells that ever had been used against the natives. The trip north from WaIla Walla, Wash., was a triumphal march, terminating In the total defeat of the Indians near Spo kane.—Portland Oregonian. Dad’s Wrong Impression “Listen to the infernal racket that confounded motorcycle is making I” grumbled Audrey’s father the other evening. “How can we, papa,” an swered little Audrey, laughing merrily the while, “when it is not a motor- cyclp, but a shooting gallery going by?”—Kansas City Star. Snake Attacks Boy High Up in Mountain Luray, Va.-Without the customary warning a monster black rattlesnake sank its. fangs deep into the neck of “June” Thomas, thirteen years old, of Madison county, while he was high up in the mountains clearing ground for a potato patch. Becoming thirsty, the boy went to a spring nearby. The snake was concealed behind a large rock. While lying down to quench his thirst the reptile attacked young Thomas, who ran more than two miles to the home of Mrs. Mary Mead ows, an aged woman, who applied a decoction obtained from the brew of certain mountain herbs. The appli cation was soon neutralizing the snake’s poison. A searching party, or ganized by the boy’s parents, found him making his way home through the mountains. A two-acre snake field, where thou sands of snakes are located, has been discovered high In the Blue Ridge mountains by George Meadows of the Hensley Church section, who reported that the snakes are congregated In a field and permit nothing to pass over that section. Thousands of the rat tlers, Meadows said, raised their heads from the rocks and chanted In snake music to warn possible trespassers.

Samuel Mourns for Saul (v. I). L Why he mournel The death ot Saul, was, no doubt, a personal loss to iSamuel, for Saul was a commanding and lovable personality. Then, too, the ruin of so promising a career would deeply affect Samuel. Finally the hu miliation to God and God's people grieved his heart 2. Excessive mourning rebuked. Tbe fact that God had rejected Saul should have lifted Samuel out of bis grief. Excessive grief over that which God does is a reflection upon Him and should be rebuked. When sorrow be comes a hindrance to. the discharge ot duty, It merits rebuke. I!. Samuel Sent to Anoint David (W. 1-3). L Samuel’s fear (v. 2). Perhaps by this time Saul was becoming a des perate character. Samuel still knew that if Saul should hear that he was taking steps to anoint a successor to the throne, his own life would be In danger. Samuel was wise in submit ting this hard situation to the Lord. God’s servants-are to be brave. How ever, even when going on errands for God we should not court danger. 2. The Lord’s direction (w. 2, 3). The Lord smoothed the way for Samuel. He showed him how to per form his duty and escape the danger. Samuel was to take a heifer and an nounce that he was going to offer a sacrifice unto the Lord and to call Jesse to the sacrifice. The prophet was not told all that would happen. This is usually God’s way with us. He gives us our work piece by piece, and guides us step by step. Samuel’s purpose was known only to himself. It was to be kept a secret so that the news would not reach Saul. This was a shrewd device but entirely legiti mate. We may conceal that which others have no right to know, espe cially when such a disclosure would be detrimental to the success of our mis sion. What Samuel said was true. III. Samuel’s Obedience (vv. 4-13). 1. The trembling elders of Bethle hem (vv. 4, 5). Their unusuaf movement was an oc casion for alarm. To the elders’ alarm ing inquiry Samuel responded with the assurance of p*!ice. Inviting them to join him In worshiping the Lord. 2. Examination of Jesse’s sons (vv. 6-12). The Lord had revealed to Samuel that one of Jesse’s sons was to be the new king, but not the particular one. (1) Eliab rejected (w. 6, 7). Eliab was the eldest son and there-’- fore he was the firs': presented as hav ing first right to the place of honor. Furthermore, he was a splendid speci men of manhood, till and majestic In appearance, so than even Samuel was captivated by him as be bad been by Saul (10:24). Oubvard appearance Is favorable, but the realities seen by God were against him. We frequently estimate men by their dress, cultural appearances, wea':tb and position. These are only surface manifestations and frequently lead us astray, but God looks Into the beam (2) David chosen (vv. 8-12). AU hut one of Jesse's sons had been looked upon, but still the Lord’s choice had not appeared Jesse’s reply to Samuel’s question as to whether all bis children had-appeared seems to imply that David was not of much Importance. At any rate he was only a boy, while his brothers were already young men. He was considered good enough to watch the sheep, but not to be called to the feast This is ever the way of man. He-overlooks the very ones whom the Lord has chosen for places of honor and influence. Because David was faithful as a shem herd boy, he was In line for promotion when God’s given time arrived. 3. David anointed (v. 13). When the shepherd lad appeared, the Lord directed Samuel' to anoint him. When the oil was applied the Spirit of the Lord came upon him. David was a gifted and attractive lad, but his gifts were of no avail without the Spirit of God. Only as we are anointed by the Holy Ghost can we truly d, the Lord’s will and work. We Can Choose We cannot tell what shall be on the morrow; but we can choose what we ourselves will be. We can resolve to live faithfully whatever betides. . . . We can walk with the bright angels, and wrestle with the dark ones, and oblige the flying hours toleave a bless ing behind.—N. X. Frothingham.

Monkey-Ecding Bird Caught by Filipinos ManIla--An unusually large specimen of the monkey-eating eagle, which ornithologists say is the toughest bird in the world, has been captured by Filipinos . in the forest of Posnrfobio1 Pan- gaslnan province. Almost everything that lives In the island, including humans, is afraid of the monkey-eaters. This one had legs almost as big around as a man’s wrists and claws larger than a man’s hands. There are said to be not more than 1 0 0 of the birds in the en- . tire archipelago. Each patrols about thirty square miles and allows no other bird of prey to enter. After exhausting a food supply a bird moves onto anoth- •er “beat” As a last resort the eagles will eat deer or live stock. Trespass on another eagle’s beat often means a conflict to the death between two of the giant birds. LIFE OF WOMAN SAVED BY SERUM Takes Wild Ride to Zoo for Snake-Bite Cure. New Tork.—To the Immediate kin of Edelbert H. Lewis, Jr., of Bloom field, N. J., the famous rides of Paul Revere, Caesar Rodney and others sink Into insignificance beside an au tomobile ride which Mr. Lewis made recently from Englewood hospital at Englewood, N. J., to the Bronx zoo logical park and back to the hospital with two tubes of serum with which to save the life of Mrs. Lewis, who had been bitten by a copperhead snake. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis went with some friends on a picnicking trip in an au tomobile belonging to Edelbert H, Lewis, Sr. They stopped in Palisade Interstate park to have lunch, and while Mr. Lewis started to build a fire his wife and others in the party roamed about gathering pieces of dried wood. A scream from Mrs. Lewis startled the others. She had been bitten above the left ankle by a snake which had darted away in the underbrush. Her description of it tallied with that of the copperhead. She was helped back into the automobile at once and efforts were made to find a place where she could receive treatment A motor cycle policeman directed the party to the Englewood hospital. There Dr. Daniel Kuhlphaur, with the help of Miss Ruth Weeden, a nurse, made an Incision and applied suction to the wound. He said, how ever, the patient should have injec tions of serum, and that Dr. Raymond L. Ditmars, curator of the Bronx zoo and expert on reptifts, always had some of the serum on hand. Lewis said he would drive over to the zoo and get the serum, which he did. Later Doctor Kidilphaur said Mrs. Lewis was resting well and that the Injections appeared to have relieved her. Mrs. Lewis is twenty-four years old. Kills Octopus, but Is . Too Late to Save Pal Port Townsend, Wash.—A huge octopus, bearing In its tentacles the body of one of five men who went down on the tug Warren, gave up its human prize after an hour’s battle 50 feet under water with A E. Hook, a diver. Hook related his story here upon arriving with the body, that of H. Healey, cook on the tug. The diver was, under water repair ing a fish net, he said, when he sight ed the devilfish making his way along the bottom of the sound with the body in his tentacles. Seizing a pike pole, Hook attacked the sea monster. Cen tering his thrusts on the middle sec tion of the spiderlike demon, Hook literally cut his tentacled adversary to ribbons before the death struggle was ended. Hook had to pry loose the tentacles from around the body. Kin Identifies Dead, but Girl Appears Alive Buffalo, N. T.—The striking resem blance to Miss Eleanor McCormick of this city to a girl whose body was found floating in Ellicott creek; near here, led to a case of mistaken Iden tity that baffled the authorities until Miss McCormick actually was brought face to face with the dead woman. "Positive” identification of the body as that of Miss McCormick was made by her fourteen-year-old brother, Vin cent. His judgment was verified by Joseph, another brother, and later by a sister, who identified certain articles of clothing on the body as belonging to her sister. Small Birds Ride North / on Backs of Waterfowl La Conner, Wash.—Even small birds like to get a lift along the mi gratory highway, by riding on the backs of big waterfowl. Hans Lascota, dyke farmer, declares he watched a (lock of loons alight on the flats here and from their midst flew several score smaller birds the size of spar rows. The loons settled on the shal low, water to rest and feed; their pas sengers taking quarters In trees on the shore. Control Disease of Cucumbers Eliminated Agencies by Which Destructive Ail ment Is Wintered. - (Prepared by the United Statee Department of Agriculture.) The most effective means of con trolling the mosaic disease of cucum bers, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, consists In the elimination of the agencies by which this destructive disease is car ried over the winter. The cause of the disease is un known, but diseased plants contain a form of infection which may be trans mitted to healthy plants by such in sects as the melon apliis and the striped cucumber beetle. The disease does not live in the soil and is not carried in the seed of the cultivated cucurbits, but is known to live from year to year in certain wild plants, some of which occur in most of the cucumber-growing sections. Wild Plants Carry Disease. The known wild plants which carry the disease are the wild cucumber, milkweed, pokeweed, two species of wild ground cherry, and catnip. The disease is carried over winter in the roots of these plants, except in the case of the wild cucumber which car ries the infection in the seed. Insects feeding on these infected wild plants and on the cucumbers in the field spread the mosaic disease. In a num ber of fields where the average mosaic infection had been approximately -40 per cent, eradication of the wild host plants In and near the fields reduced it to 3 per cent. Before planting, the field itself and all land within 75 yards should be carefully inspected and all wild host plants, whether healthy or diseased, should be pulled out. If the cucumber field can be surrounded by other cul tivated crops, the work of eradication will be simplified and insects are like ly to be less prevalent. Plants Are Dwarfed. Mosaic cucumber plants are dwarfed, the younger leaves are mottled with green and yellow, and the fruits are mottled and misshapen; the darker areas forming warty pro jections on the surface. IVhen such plants appear early in the sason they should be removed immediately to pre vent further spread of the infection by insects. It is also advisable to use insecticides to reduce the number of insects. Where several fields are ad jacent to one another it is essential that all growers co-operate In remov ing the wild host plants about their fields. Dusting for Insects Is Popular and Effective Dusting insects has become so popu lar, and the dust guns so easy to use and effective, that dust is taking the place of liquid sprays.” For ordinary garden use a coarse cloth sack tied to the end of a stout stick is a very effective duster for leaf eaters, but for some of the sucking insects that require a contact poison like nicotine a blower is best, for it will force the dust up under the leaves as well. Tou can get almqst any kind of Insecticide now in the powder form. The best time to use is very early in the morn ing before the dew dries off, or it will be needful to sprinkle or spray the foliage with water to make the dust stick. There are combination dusts that will serve for both eating and sucking pests, and most gardeners wUI be wise to use them and use them freely. Danger Spots in Roads Are Now Clearly Marked Danger signs In the Minnesota sys tem of yellow-and-black markings on trunk highways, hav.e general mean ings conveyed by their, shapes in addi tion to the specific warnings they give. Diamond-shaped signs warn -of ac tual dangers on the road, such as a sharp turn. When the careful driver sees one ahead he always slows the speed of his car. Square signs mark dangers near the road but not part of it, sucb as schools. They put good drivers on the alert the instant they are sighted. Octagonal and round signs always require a full stop. The eight-edged signs are posted in most Instances at intersections of arterial routes to avoid collisions. Round signs of the same import but in a class by them selves, are used to mark railroad crossings, all of which are always dangerous. Fresh Straw Is Liable to Stunt Plant Growth Fresh straw plowed under some times stunts the growth of the fol lowing crop, according to soil'special ists of the New Jersey agricultural experiment station. The straw acts as a medium for certain kinds of bac teria which multiply rapidly and which feed on the nitrogen that would ordinarily go to the crop. This explanation is borne out by‘the fact that when nitrogen is added with the straw, the harmful effects are pre vented. In very sandy soils, Injury appears before a shortage of nitrogen can make itself felt. Apparently, the straw also introduces poisons which affect the tender ■ seedlings. The soil specialists of the station are now endeavoring to find methods of treating the straw so that both forms of injury will be prevented. Deterasine Hay Grade by Time of Cutting Some Common Hays Are Al lowed to Stand Too Long. Late catting and improper curing are the most common cause of low grades and low prices of hay, says ProL L. A Dalton of the department of agronomy at the New Tork State College of Agriculture at Ithaca. The usual difference between No. 2 and No. 3 hay is that No. 3 was allowed to become over-ripe or was cured in sucb a way that it lost Its color and aroma. The time when the common hays should be out are as follows, accord ing to Professor Dalton: Timothy should be cut when it is In full bloom. If allowed to stand longer the leaves and stems turn brown. If iallowed to stand too long many of the leaves turn brown and fall and tie stems become woody. Mixtures of clover and timothy should be cut when the clover has reached full bloom. Red clover usu ally blooms ten days to two weeks earlier than timothy, but if the cutting Is deia. id until the timothy is in bloom th . clover will be over-ripe. Alfalfa should be cut when one- tenth to one-fifth of the crop is in full bloom. If allowed to stand longer the plants that flowered first lose many leaves and become hard and woody. Hay should be raked into windrows while it U still sappy so that its moisture will evaporate without the excessive loss of green color, which occurs when all the hay is exposed to the sunlight in the swath. Silage More Palatable Than Fodder for Cows An acre of com has a much higher feeding value when fed to dairy cows as silage than it has when cured and fed as fodder. The-superior value of silage over fodder is attributed largely to the smaller waste in the handling, curing, storing and feeding of silage and to its greater palatability. Prin cipally because silage is much more palatable than cord fodder, more of it Is consumed, thns making more nu trients available for milk production. These facts are borne out by an ex periment made by the Iowa Agricultu ral experiment station in which corn silage was compared to corn fodder in well-bal;mced rations fed to dairy cows. By giving corn silage a feed ing value of $4.50 a ton, or $36,00 for an acre yield of eight tons, the rela tive value of corn fodder was found to be $17J.7 for a production of 3.4 tons per acre. However, as there is about 5 per cent greater additional loss re sulting from coring fodder than there Is from curing silage, the acre valua tion of the fodder is reduced to $16.21. An acre of com fodder in these trials, therefore, was given but 45 per cent the value of any acre of silage for feeding to dairy cows. Handling Soy Beans for Both Hay and for Seed Soy beans' should be cut for hay soon after the seed pods have been formed and before the seeds have been fully developed, about the time the lower leaves begin to turn yellow 'and drop. For seed soys should be allowed to become fnliy matured before harvest ing. At this time the leaves will have largely dropped off. If they stand up well it is more satisfactory to cut and bind and shock them and let them stand in the shocks until dry enough to thresh. They may be cut with a mower and shocked until ready to thresh, but more of the seed will shat ter and be lost and they will be harder to thresh. In making hay of soys they should be . allowed to become well wilted in the swath before raking and shocking, but should not be allowed to become dry enough to shatter off the leaves. The shocks will shed water better if put up whan the hay is a little green.

Declared Judge William F. Hard ing, '"FroiUNfawts that have come to my knowledge, I believe that North Caroliua is enforcing ; the prohibi tion law..better than any other state in the union. If this is the case, it is because the people of Noith Ca- rolira want it enforced."' The Wiustou-Salem Journal says the judge is right. The Daily Rec ord says it hopes it is right for the sake of state pride, but'i.f he is right in that North Carolina is enforcing the law better than any other state in the union we are struck dumb by the dampness of the rest of the union. ‘Stills are captured with considerable regularity, and drunk en drivers are arrested aud sent enced, and men are constantly be ing captured with pints' 011 their hips and tlie fight goes merrily on, but with all those .persons in the audience this evening who haven’t the slightest idea where they might, get a dram in case of dire necessity please hold up their hands? Up high, please,, so we can count them. Ob!'yes One, two—are there any others, please? The. percentage of persons who do not know where some liquor is to be had is about as low as per centages get to be. We don’t mean that everybody is on iutimate terms with a bootlegger or a manufactur er, but practically eyerybodyjsuows somebody who could arrange to get a little for them if the occasion a- rose. We do agree with the judge in that'the maiority of the people iu North Carolina, want it enfoiced It was carried at the ballot box any Opposition to it would be swariiped in this state today. The people want it, all right, but not enough to get out and fight for its enforcement.—Hickory Record. Listen At Bill.

If everythiny was so quiet and peaceful at Morganton after the dead outlaw was Brought in. as the Burke -sheriff has declared, and “there never was any real danger that the crowd would take the corpse” from the custody of, the sheriff and "lynch it." one can but wonder why the remains were sent Statesville for burial; The negro had no connection here and no friends. Some of the colored people were not pleased that the remains were brought here /find buried by their cemetery wall and some white folks sympathize with their feelings, But while the ..corpse of even a criminal is entitled to sepulture, for sanity reasons is no other, it would seem that if everything was so or derly in Morgdnton they have buried the negro somewhere in Burkecoun- ty if it was impossible to.da that in Morganton —Statesville Daily.

There, are approximately twice a§ 'many people living iu the' city of New York than the whole-State of North Carolina and the Empire State is considered the wealthiest in the Union yet North Carolihais bonded indebtedness of $143,392,- 600 is the. second largest, in the 48 States ranking right up Dext to the State of New York whose .debt .is $34'L°59,ooo North Carolina is ahead of aii other rich State, Illinois, which is' third, with $137,212,600. Florida;:' Nebraska, Kentucky and Wiscon sin have no bonded debt. !' North Carolina’s per .capita ‘debt is $50. T7, the third largest in the country according to statistics gath ered by ,the Bank of America, Nevv York, in a nation wide-survey. T And in the face of.these astound ing figures every time the legisla ture meets another big bond issue is saddled on the already overbur dened taxpayers and counties, citi es and towns vie with each ether to see how many bonds they can issue. Occasionally sanity strike's some communities like Mt. Aify; for instance, the past week, and- .-a bond issue is defeated, but in most cases the issuing goes merrily on. . The survey which reports a total bonded debt for all the States of $1,846,113..577-72 “r $15-75 per capita, says that no State has'iu- curred a gieater debt for welfare .institutions than has North Caro lina aud-only three States have ex pended more for highway construc tion. ■ 7 ■; .; ..- ' i . " . .. ; Nearly; half.-of the Iiuge State’in, debtedness has been incurred iu the the last five years and iu the last two years $355,000,000 worth of new1 bonds have been retired. Highways aud bridge construc tion is responsible for 45.2 per cent of the total indebtedness, The Bank of America statisrics have found. Actually S834.467.058 woith of bonds outstanding have been issued for for this purpose which is signi- ficat iu view, ot the comparatively recent large-scale building of roads.

Only 1.9 per cent of the total debt represents expenditure tor educational purposes.

Correct this sentence; “ No. Mr. -Editor,1I owe you for another year’s subscription.” Jadge Hayes1 Diagnosis ■; Judge Johnsou J. Hayes, speak ing in the Baptist Churchat Mount Airv recently came pretty near get-, ting at the cause of much of the in fustice that has its origin in the courtroom. "Our trouble is not with our judges,” he said, "for I. know that they are high type men, and I have never in my long exper ience a solicitor ever seen, heard, or thought for one instant that bribery could be indulged in by any Judge in this State. Our trou ble is that a rich man can emp'oy the best lawyers, who argue cases so brilliantly, that a reasonable of guilt is sgt up in the minds of the jurymen.” j It is a maxix that' a poor case and a good lawyer are a better com bination for the litigant to have than aj good case and a poor lawyer. This being true, the party to a suit who has the most money is going to win regardless of the virtue' of his case. Judges Hayes1- accord ing to the report" of his. ad dress, offered no remedy for tlijs species of injustice—unless it. were to "afford both parties to a : suit counsel of equal, ability. Perhaps tlje extension of judicial discretion would help. Judges should have the right to emphasize the essential facts involved in a case to the jury. He should be expect ed to keep tl^e issues from becom ing obscured by the suave and of ten fallacious arguments of counsel. —Winston Journal. i A Bear Market. - £ There niay be' no. real I y authen-; Jic . , infQitnation, 'but there are persistent reports that tbe bears Sre in command of the illicit liquor market in this part of the world.

About this time of the year when young rabbits-are about half grown it has become the practice of owners of hound dogs to take them to the fields and give the rabbits a chase for their lives. This is all wrong .and in addition is a violation of the state-wide game law.' This law past ed by the last Legislature prescribes the same closed season for rabbits as it does fur quail. Rabbits may not be legally hunted before December I Heretofore young rabbits have been been' hunted as stated above a- d also in the fall before the quail season opened. This has proven a temptation to shout a few birds out of season and furnished the. reason for closing the rabbit season in the newgaiielaw. l it would be a blessing to the farm ers of the Btate if v the Legislature ciiuld be prevailed upon to prohibit tlie shooting of quail wjthin the borders of the state fi^th&juext 10 yiars.

Between the great State ofNorth Carolina • aud the garages:>tbe own er, of a u automobile is !getting it where the chicken got the; axe—iu the neck. , A whole flock oi new laws sock ing the motorist right and left went into effect the first of July. First and fqremost was the State graft of 25 cents extra for issuing the license which was' for six months' ouly ‘ and which;.; it was charged for extra clerk hire. ( Just why it took $100,000 to -pay for this extra registration gets the or-, dinary motorist’s goat. The last Legislature passed a law requiring each owner of a mo tor car to pay .- 50 cents for a little holder that retails for about 1.5 cents but this graft of $200,900 from the car owners failed to get by this time but watch out ye car owners qext January. You will in all probability have to pay .this ex tra 50 cents or you won’t get your license just as: the case .was when the title registration law was I put over. An attempt was made to collect-# 1.50 from each car/.owner but there was such a wave of pro test over the state that only - 170,- 000 car owners paid this robbery and tbey got back one dollar of this but at the uext licensing lime a car owner, had to cough-up the 50 cents or no license plate w as given him. Another graft this year which is for'the sole beneflt of the- garages aud automobile repair shops is this official light testing business These garage's charge the owner.s-75 cents for. ,this offit aj ttsting and' they get everyCenP'bFrt,^ ing. Hete is another-1 $300,000 takeu from the pockets of jhe car owners of the state. And;; when they test your tight generally some thing else is’ found vvroug, you have to buy new bulbs’or some other attachment and if;you get a- way from one' of these "official" light testiug garages by paying on ly 75 cents you are getting oil light. And by tlie way, who designat ed these official light testers any way and why was not every garage allowed to test out the lights and get in'on this graft? Herein Wius- ton Salem only four or five were granted this; official recognition while other garages equally deserv ing and who had always voted the ticket .straight had to stand by helpless, Another wonderful provisiou that no advertisement of a bathing beau ty a candidate for office or any kind of a sticker must be placed ou the windshield of a car and the state turned right around and al lowed these official light testers to place a sticker on. the windshield showing that the lights had been tested. Wbycanthe-stateviolate the law and prosecute a private par ty for doing the same thing? Of course any one caught driving a car under the influence of intoxi cants is liable to prosefcution and rightly so but ;since this, law went into effect at; Iea t one superior court judge has failed to sustain a lower court in'a case were a driver was convicted 'under this charge. Of course in 'iiiost cases, this law will be executed and construed by different court !officials as they see fit.

Fov l;-iHiil, of Paris, has revived the •tiiit; Ii1Is summer. Of course, the' not begin as high as Tweed and velvet are employed for sports and informal ensembles, supple velvet, lace and sheer silks stand first among the afternoon models, while chifEon and tulle show the way for evenings, Drecoll. . The hip-top waistline remains the guiding genius of the Drecoll collec tion, which for the most part retains the straight silhouette of spring. This contour, you will I-Bmember, stressed bias treatments, the blousing back and a varied group of bolero manipu lations. The tailleur occupies an un usually prominent place in this show ing, and In that connection a signifi cant number of strictly tailored coots are exhibited. There is one note worthy characteristic of these tailored coats—they seldom employ fur as a trimming; yet invariably a fox scarf accompanies the wrap. The compose, ensemble is the outstanding type of costume in the Drecoll collection. It consists of a woolen coat, usually broadcloth, underneath which is worn ?Wv mold does It t!i(] J emphasized the conform- S Wieci, now that tlieme is confined 1 tie waistline.

Velvet, satin, crepe romain and crepe maro- caiii are the leading fabrics, while the brown range stands first in the color scheme. Louiseboulanger. An unusual note In the LouIsebou- lnnger collection, nnd one which has already attained a wide re-echoing among the smart set in Paris, is the cape costume. Tiiis consists of a sill: frock whose skirt flares in front, ac companied by a silhouette conforming cape of the same material as the frock. The cape adheres closely to the Ugure and is caught about the hips. Another notable item in this collection is the two-piece ensemble, consisting of a tiered skirt, which is accompanied by a far-bordered three- quarter length paletot. Robes du soir once more insist on the spring silhouette. The bodice Is quite as loose as formerly, the hip line is con forming, while the skirt branches out into a charmingly plaited bouffancy. A rather striking feature which at tracted wide comment was the appear ance on crepe satin of huge appllqued flowers in vivid effects. Groult. Individual as most of the new sil houettes are, Nicole Groult offers per haps the most notable outline of the summer season. The contour is what is called the half cloche outline. The skirt flares in a circular manner at the front, while in back it Is quite straight and very flat Groult makes no change In the hemline, which is curtailed as before in tlie vicinity of the knees. There is no evidence of the short sleeve at this salon, which still features the long, Close-fitting type. There .is an unusual dearth of colors, black and -navy blue being practically the only- shades. Velvet, repe satin and flat crepes are used. Lenief. Lenief is decidedly partial to the flared silhouette for this summer; so partial, indeed, that he has become one-sided In the matter. That is to say, he emphasizes fullness at one side rather than at the front, whidi is the typical method of the new season, vjuite the most prolific ensemble which has been seen in Paris for nany moons Is presented by the ver satile Lenief. It is a sports costume, and consists of a coat, jacket and skirt, all made of a soft woolen fabric, a blouse which is silk and white, of course, and a jumper of tricot. Wom en of the old school who are still wait ing for a return to those days when women were modestly women may take heart via Lenief through the onger skirt, which is a general char acteristic of t«is collection. Longer, of course, is distinctly a comparative term-; the hemline is still sufficiently curtailed to meet the demands of the most modern debutante. Notable, too, In th is Collection is 6 higher waistline, nnd here, of course,'tli.e term higher is surely comparative; it still falls sev eral ihcbes short of what was oac* known as Its normal sphers, AUTO-TRACTOR LATEST IN TRANSPORTATION Thei latest vehicle for army transportation Is the convertible automobile- tractor, which was demonstrated by the British war office. The experimental car, a reconnaissance, has a lengthy chassis and between the front and rear wheels is a tractor which can be lowered or raised at will, depending upon the topography of the land. ' MOTOR JAUNT IS ONE OF DELIGHT Have Car Overhauled, Brakes Properly Adusted and Tires Inspected. Vacations remind me of our two weeks’ motor trip to Estes park last summer, and I remember how we planned what to take and what to leave at home. It’s a problem. Some tourists take dogs, canaries, even vic- trolas. But on a camping trip, you want to forget some marks of civili zation, says Aunt Aggie of the Kan sas State Agricultural State college. Perhaps the experiences we had in selecting things to take will help some would-be campers. Things to Get. First, get a waterproof tent—try the hose on it before you leave home to be sure it won’t leak. A wall tent, or one that goes over the car, is satis factory. Steel stakes are better than wooden. We took a steel spring auto bed, but although it was comfortable, it was too heavy to handle. A bed with woven rope bottom and wooden sup ports rather than steel is better for an auto bed. Take a folding .cot apiece for the rest of the family. You’ll need plenty of warm comfort ables—newspapers help out because they are good Insulators. We took as few clothes as possible and packed them in some old suit cases—new bags would have been ruined on that trip. We wore hiking clothes. A short-handled spade helped us out of mud holes, and an ax was always useful. If you plan to fish, take your fishing tackle. Cooking Utensils. For meals, we had a small alumi nium pan apiece, unbreakable cups, forks and spoons apiece, two or three case knives, a good butcher knife, a sirup pail for making coffee or heat ing water, a gallon pall for carrying water, salt and pepper shakers, skil let, and a large spoon for stirring. We took along a home-cured ham and saved a number of meat bills. One of the children kept a notebook of expenses, and immediately after we bought anything—gas, oil, food—she recorded the amount. It cost us just $150 for six of us to take the trip, and ot course we have all our camp goods left to take another jaunt Our expense keeper also kept a diary of the trip in her notebook and, with our. snapshots, .-we Ii^e over again our experiences. Before leaving, have the car thor oughly overhauled, brakes adjusted, and a good set of tires put on, with a spare. A half-gallon can of oil Is enough for emergencies. If you want to, take a trailer to pack things into, but one car is much easier to manage than two, even if the one Is crowded. Car Greatest Necessity for the Wife of Farmer The American farm housewife can get along without a lot of things, but she must have her automobile. Running water in the kitchen, a telephone and a radio are regarded as necessities, but the motor car ranks first The. General Federation of Wom en’s Clubs has announced that re plies to 40,000 questionnaires sent to housewives living on farms disclosed that nearly four-fifths of them have automobiles, one-fifth radio sets, more than a third have running or pumped water af kitchen sinks. Top of Steering Gear Post Repays Lubricant It pays to keep in mind many of the legs conspicuous parts of the car. which are not properly lubricated be cause they are'overlooked so easily. One of these, almost invariably for gotten In the lubricating process, Is the top of the steering gear post A few drops of light oil applied- at this point every - few thousand miles will take away the grinding noise when one tugs at the wheel as in parking.' Clutch and brake pedal shafts need a little ilubricant once in a while. Neglect causes excessive wear, result ing in noisy pedal action. Two Plans for Stopping Car in Right Position The usual garage is just large enough to accommodate one, two oi three cars, and the space in- front of and behind the cars is rather limited. To prevent running the car into the garage too far, one owner suspended a card from the. ceiling, so that it would just touch the windshield when REMINDER U GA and BvaSTOP SIGNAL \.. Handy Methods of Stopping a Car In the Correct Position in a Garage. the car was in the right position. An other method of preventing tlie car from going too far is to provide a removable wooden bumper on the floor as shown In the lower sketch.— G. A. Luers, Washington, D. C., in Popular Mechanics Magazine. Australia Is Big Buyer of Heavy-Duty Trucks Australia is the largest purchaser of American-made heavy-duty' trucks, contrary to the, public belief that Can ada imports more of that type of ve hicles than any other country. This is due, perhaps, to its nearness but the facts, do not bear it out Last year, according to the govern ment figures, 647 trucks of more than two and a half tons capacity were im ported from the United States by Aus tralia. The agricultural development of the Antipodes is given as a reason, together with a lack of rail facilities. As a matter of fact, truck experts be lieve, there never - will be any exten sive rail development in Australia, modern highways being built between the important cities which will afford ample transportation routes for th'e heavy trucks that also serve the rich farming districts that He between. Canada imported a little more than a third of the number of heavy-duty trucks that Australia did, the total for the neighboring country being 271.

Married for money. Sold myself for five hundred dollars!” “Great Scott, C. M.! Get on! What happened?” “After I married Polly, and got half the money down, I came home here, saying nothing to anyone. The under standing was that I was to go back at the end of the week, sign the neces sary papers, and get the rest of the money. That was to end the whole business. When I got home, Pop was dying. He died the night I got home, and was buried three days after. “After the funeral I made an ex cuse to Mom that I had to go back to settle-things, and so I got away. I went to the lawyer’s office and signed the papers. He told me that Polly's uncle was dead, had died two days after I married Polly, and I was to take the papers and deliver them to her. She was staying at a little sec ond-rate hotel. She’d given up her job but she didn’t want to spread her self until she got away from the town where she’d been a servant girl. Polly herself was to give me the rest of the money. I'd only been paid half be fore I went home. The lawyer laughed, when he told me .that, amt added: ‘Women are women. She would have it so.’ Then he looked sly, and said:' ‘Maybe this isn’t such a mercenary affair as I was led to believe. If I were you, I’d make her see reason and stay in America before she spends all of her fortune in traveling, or gets taken in by foreigners. It’s a lot of money. If I were in your shoes, I’d never let Her go.’ “I walked away from him, thinking if he was in my shoes he’d be in a bad way. I didn’t know whether it was be cause I was all worn out with grief over Pop, and sleepless nights and worry about Mom and the future, or whether it was because I was miles away from home and lonely. Some how I didn’t seem like myself. I seemed like some other person. I tried to shake the feeling off. I said to myself: ‘All the time I’m with Polly. I’m going to be just myself— the Claude Da6bs I feel like. She don’t know me as Claude Dabbs of Peace Valley.“I saw my future. A hard struggle with' a country store and no time to do anything but work. God! how I re belled In that short- walk down. I didn't see why I should be shut up in a grocery for a lifetime, and that was all I could see before me. Why should my father have had to die, when there were men walking round hale and hearty, lots older than he. “And I wanted Pop back! Nothing to do with the financial part of it, that ache. I cared a lot. Why. I could have stood the grocery part of it forever—for Pop. I hated every man of his age that came near me alive and happy, while lay stall. There was a .sore place in my heart that I couldn’t bear, marked with his name Every time I went near it, jumped away, Uke you jump when you have had a bad spot and the dentist’s fooling round. “All the things I hadn’t done that Pop wanted me to do; all the times I’d disappointed him and acted mean were there. It needed only a touch to send me running down that city street, crying like a baby. “So I shut It off, in a comer of my mind, and said to myself: ‘That’s got nothing to do with this Polly I’m go ing to se» I’ll get all through with this young woman, and then I’ll go home to what I’ve got to go home to. But she’s nothing to do with it.’ ” Ned stopped him. “C. M.,” lie said, “I don’t think you exactly hated this Polly.” , “Maybe not, but I wasn’t looking forward with much pleasure to see ing Mr. I’d hardly looked at her In the boarding house, unless I bad to yell at her for not tidying up my room, or for tidying it so I couldn’t find anything; or not bringing my laundry up fast enough. No, that isn’t quite honest. I’d noticed her, all right. She was too pretty not to notice. But my mind had been on other things then, and she was just—Polly. Un derstand?’ “I think I get the state of mind yon were In,” Ned admitted thoughtfully, “but I still think you liked the girl a lot more than, you admit" Claude sighed. “It’s possible. It’e so hard to make people see, though, that sometimes you're one part of yourself and sometimes you’re an other.” He began again, as though anxlo** to get on. “It was getting pretty late and I thought if I got there just in time for supper I would have to ask her to eat “I Looked Up and There Was Polly.” with me. I didn’t think I could stand talking to her, so I stopped at a restaurant. “Son, I don’t know that I can make you understand it, but I might just as well have had something strong to drink. The food made me feel so queer; like plowing ahead at someone or something. I took a little walk, and then I said to myself that now I’d only got to get it over and then I could take the nine o’clock train home—and that would be all of that “The hotel wasn't far from the sta tion, and it wasn’t very handsome, I guess, but it was finer than any I’d ever been in. I asked for Polly by her own name, only saying Mrs. in stead of Miss. It was Iier own idea. She didn’t wish to have anything like talk about us. I said I was her hus band. The woman called up and told me Polly would be down In a minute. “The parlor was full of people, but nobody I knew. I sat down and waited, and while I waited that hurry and rush of excitement Inside me kept up. It was hard to sit still. I wanted to walk about and talk, but I held my self in. I looked at the people who came In, and they all seemed the same kind of red-faced, common people. No body I knew. “Then I heard.a v'olee near me say: ‘Well, so it’s you.’ I looked up and there was Polly.” Claude glanced at Ned, who, his eyes shaded with his hand, seemed to be listening intently. “Wish I could make you see just what she looked like to me. I’d never seen her in right clothes; just house dresses and apron things. There, be side me, was one of the prettiest girls I’d ever seen In my life. She was dressed all in black—mourning for her uncle—and it set off her fair skin. It made her red hair look like autumn leaves, kinda flaming and yet soft. I'd mostly seen that hair bun dled' up in a dusting cap. Well, I guess I gawked at her before I rose to my feet and Polly was confused, too, and kept looking away from me. “ ‘We can’t say anything private here,’ she said. ‘Maybe you’d better come to my room.’ “I told her I guessed that would be all right, for I’d said I was her hus band when I came In. “ ‘Oh,’ she says, 'did you? Then It’s all right. Come along.’ “We went up and she opened the door and I went into her room.” Claude’s pipe went out There was silence in the room as he filled It but Claude did not feel it. He had for gotten that he was telling the story to Ned. He had forgotten everything that belonged to himself in the pres ent He was back in the past, seeing the shy, awkward Claude Dabbs on the threshold of that girl’s room. He remembered that already it looked different from the rest of the house. She had flowers in a vase on the rough, cheap, pine dressing table. She had spread clean towels on that, on the bureau and on her trunk, dis carding the dirty-looking scarfs that had adorned them. They had been too shy to look at each other. He had stared ont of the window. Every time Dabbs brought his eyes around to her, he caught her looking at him, and finally she laughed. It was wonderful, that laugh. It made him feel young again. He had been feeling like an old man, with a weight of sorrow and care on his shoulders, but that girl’s laugh had made him feel his own age. Her laugh was young and spiced with deviltry. Back of It all was the new strange feeling the girl gave him. He saw himselt solemnly giving her the papers. J»e watched her while she put them carefully away In a bag, and counted out the rest of the money. There had been a moment's awkwardness over that, he remem bered. He had made an Involuntary movement of his hand, to give it back to her, but she as involuntarily, thrust It back at him. Then he laughed, folded It up and put It away. But he did not go. He had known that he should, but he could not. He sat down beside her, and they began talking, awkwardly enough at first. Then suddenly they were no longer the Claude and Polly of the boarding house days, but two young tilings who had lots to say to each other, and en joyed saying it She told Claude of Iier plans. She meant to travel and study and see everything. She was fond of reading. Indeed, she had read and planned in a way that seemed remarkable to him for a girl, a. servant girl, too, but he noted that she did not ask about his plans. Every time their conversation touched his life, present or future, she changed the subject Then he knew that she meant him to under stand she would have nothing to do with him after tonight. After tonight, Claude would not see her; after to night she would be away enjoying things, out in the freedom of the world, with money, and she would have no use for him, no use at all. It had eaten into the young Claude’s consciousness that she was going to use him as a shield until she met some one she really cared for. Then she would drop him, and his name. “After tonight" echoed and re-echoed in his mind, and lie forgot that he had no right to expect anything else, for he had taken Iier money. Jealousy grad ually took possession of him. He watched her talk and smile. It struck nine. His train had gone. He did not go; merely sat watching her. He had known, even then, that she saw what she had done to him, and It had gone to her head. He had been one of the “boarders” in the old days, one for whom she must fetch and carry. Now he was at her mercy. He. began to think of lots of things that proved she had not been as In different to him In those old boarding house days as she had pretended. Even before the money came, Polly Johnston, the man-hater, had a soft spot for one man—Claude Dabbs. AU unconsciously she had let him see that. Claude had wondered afterward if it was not a conscious use of her new-found power. He began to be lieve that it was not entirely by acci dent that she had made him come to her for the money, instead of having the lawyer .pay him. He had never, until then, guessed that the girl liked him—that way. But now she told him more than she meant, or knew, and when she realized this, she pulled herself up and began telling him that the lawyer had arranged for her to go to France. She would go as a young widow, to people who would help her; let her see everything and do everything she wanted to do. He remembered how the other, younger Claude, after listening to her silently for awhile, had blurted out: “When are you coming back?” “Never!"

The other day we heard of a man who mislaid an elephant; now we hear of some one who lost a railway train I Both these interesting items of lost property have been recovered. The elephant had merely gone for a stroll down a lonely lane, but the train had been stolen by Polish rail way officials. It was made up of 42 trucks of coal when it left Chorzaw1 In Upper Silesia, on February 24, but the coal was delivered to accomplices at various towns, where It was sold. The engine and 42 trucks were not so easily disposed of, and after a police hunt the truth has just come out.

Improved Uniform International Lesson 1 (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D.D„ DeaBj Moody Bible Inatltute at Chicago.)I©, 1927. Western Newepaper Union.) Sious Falls, S. D.—Because his first ,wife came to Sioux Falls 2S years ago, during the days when the South Da kota metropolis was the divorce mecca for mismated couples from all parts of the world, and obtained a divorce from him, Roland Pope, sixt-y-three, thought it no more than proper that he should come to Sioux Falls from his" home in Sydney, Australia, and marry a new bride. The woman who traveled half way around the world with him In order to become his second wife was before her marriage to Pope Amy Carletoa Keigwin1 sixty, also of Sydney. They have just been married here by Rev. A. C. Preston, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. Following a marriage luncheon they departed for England to spend their honeymoon. The aged bride and groom were ac companied to Sioux Falls, by a Mr. Jamieson of Australia and a Sirs. Mor gan of Singapore, Straits Settlements, who served as attendants to the wed ding party. They also acted as wit nesses to the wedding and after the business which called him to Sioux Falls had been concluded they accom panied the bride and groom on their journey to England. The courts of Australia do not rec ognize divorces granted in South Da kota, and accordingly Mr. Pope, who Is understood to be a man of wealth, decided that- to be on the safe side it was no more than proper that he should marry his second wife in the state which had granted a divorce from the first, and thus protect his property interests, so there could be no dispute as to the right of his sec ond wife to inherit his estate should he be the first of the two to die. Under the South Dakota marriage laws they had no difficulty in obtain ing the necessary marriage license, and armed with this they lost no time in proceeding to the home of the clergyman who united them In mar riage and thus brought to a conclu sion a romance extending over many years.

The Chinese press always pays great attention to all the doings of Mei Langfang, whose position is unique, and several tales are going the rounds in connection with his ap proaching -marriage. One story is that JIel and JIiss Meng fell in love, while both were acting in the same company. How ever, it is also declared that Jlei’s first wife, jealous of her successor, brought about the new situation in revenge against the second wife. Fatal Pinochle Hand Wins Funeral Money New York.—Eight aces, drawn in a pinochle hand, cost Frank Franken- that, a watchman; his life, but won him the expenses of his funeral. “I will see that Frankenthal gets the best funeral obtainable. Any man who can draw eight aces in a pinochle game deserves it,”' declared Irving Kemp, his employer for the last 15 years, when informed of the watch man’s death. Frankenthal, playing with three friends, was dealt two aces and drew the remaining jsix. As he drew his eighth ace he arose from his chair with a shout and fell back uncon scious. A physician found he died of heart failure. Expensive Smoke New York.—A messenger boy’s smoke cost §13,000. An eighteen-year- ol4*youth, carrying a bag of securities for Newborg & Co., brokers, took it with him to lunch at a self-service restaurant. He met a messenger friend and they went out to Battery park to puff and watch the ships go by. Then they noted the bag was missing.

The Contending Armies (17:1-3). On the north side of the Valley of Elah, on the highlands, stood Saul and his army, and on the south side stood the Philistine hosts, eyeing each other I for battle. According to an ancient custom, the Philistines, having a war rior among them of great strength, sought to decide the war by e combat between two selected champions. The nation whose champion was slain was to be subject unto the other. II. The Champions (17:4-37). 1. Goliath of the Philistines, (a) He was a giant (v. 4), perhaps eleven and one-half feet In height The ap pearance of such a man greatly intimi dated the Israelites. Saul, who once was brave, made no attempt or effort to meet this giant. (b) He was filled with proud con ceit His size, his panoply of war, and his strength, caused him to be lieve that no evil could befall him. His conceit became his snare. (c) He was boastful. No doubt he was a much-talked-of man among the Philistines. Their possession of such a man recalled the former ex perience of their nation when Sam son, the Israelite giant, wrought such great mischief among them. (d) He was defiant. He openly defied the army of Israel—the people of the Jlost High. That is just like the champion of Satan’s hosts now. He is becoming more and more defiant of the Lord’s people, and ultimately will defy the Almighty Himself. (e) He was scornful. He treated the Israelites with the utmost con tempt This is wiiat Satan is doing daily. He treats God’s people with the utmost contempt 2. David, the Israelite. In the providence of God, David was sent to the camp at a time to hear the blatant boasting of this proud and contemptible Philistine champion. His three eldest brethren were in the army, and bis father sent him with some provisions for them as well as for the captain. While Davib was talking with his brothers, Goliath made his appearance. The sight of Israel's cowardice and lack of zeal for God prompted David to offer his services. Note the character of Da vid. (a) A mere youth, a stripling not used to war. (b) He was coura geous. When all'Israel were afraid, he undertook this task. Besides, be had proven his bravery before In de fending his flock against the lion and the bear, (c) He had a mighty faith in God. He argued that what God had done for him He would do again, (d) He had meekness and self- control. This he exhibited in a re markable manner under the gibes of ElIab (v. 28). (e) He was skillful. He had become such an expert in the use of the sling that he had absolute con fidence in the issue of his attack. He was not a blind enthusiast who dis regarded the use of means, but was careful to use means, and most par ticular as to what they should be. He put aside the untried armor of Saul. He knew that God’s will for him was to use by faith that which he had' thought insignificant This is God’s Will for us. III. The Battle (vv. 3S-4S). When Goliath beheld David coming up against him, he cursed him by his gods—Dagon, Baal, and Astarte, show- lug that it was not merely a battle between David and Goliath, but be tween true and false religion.' David hasted and ran to meet Goliath. The stone from his sling smote Goliath In the forehead and he fell To the earth upon his face. David went forth in the name of the Lord of hosts—that all the earth might know that there was a God In Israel. The whole mat ter shows that the battle is not with' the strong, but with those who put their trust In God. IV. The Victory, (vv. 49-58). . The Philistine champion was killed and the army routed. This victory is a phophecy of a greater one when the devil, the defiant enemy of God and man, shall be slain and his army put to flight. David is thus the type of Christ and Goliath a type of Satan. Goliath’s sword was turned against himself and typified that Christ shall turn Satan’s weapons against him for his own destruction.

C ure A lfa lfa in W in d ro w o r C ock Feeding Value Increased Because More of Leaves Are Retained. (Prepared ty the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) There is a popular belief that al falfa and other hays cure more rap idly when handled so as to keep the leaves In a fresh condition until the items have lost much of their mois ture. This belief rests on the assump tion that so long as the leaves are not dry they continue to draw or pump the moisture from the stems. It is partly because of this theory that cur ing in the windrow has been so com monly advocated, -says the United States Department of Agriculture. Retains More Leaves. It Is generally recognized that hay cured in the windrow or cock does re tain more of its leaves, thereby in creasing its feeding value. So far as can be ascertained, however, no ex periments have hitherto been con ducted to determine whether or not the leaves actually aid In removing water from the stems. With this in. mind some tests were begun In 1924 and continued in 1925. by department Investigators, the results of which are discussed in Department Bulletin No. 1424-D. Samples of alfalfa were taken and weighed immediately. Some of them were left to cure in the natural con dition—that is with the leaves on— while the leaves were picked from others by hand. Weighings were made at intervals to determine the rapidity with which the various samples lost their moisture. In every case where the leaves were removed from the stems the alfalfa dried out somewhat more rapidly than where it was allowed to cure in its natural state; that is, with the leaves on. The difference was not great and just how much of this is due to handling cannot be easily determined. However, it is perfectly clear from the data that alfalfa In the quantities used' in the tests cures at least as rapidly with leaves removed as with them attached, which is contrary to the popular belief. Fallacy of Popular Theory. These extensive tests would seem to indicate the fallacy of the popular theory concerning the pumping action of the leaves, but this need not neces sarily change the practice of curing hay in the windrow or cock. Some other explanation must be made for the beneficial results of the practice, however. A copy of .this bulletin may be se cured as long as the supply lasts by writing to the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, Washington, D. CL Control Cabbage Worms With Arsenate Mixture Cabbage worms and cabbage aphids usually make their appearance about this season of the year In more or less destructive numbers. Farmers, truck crop growers and backyard gardeners will find a cheap and effective remedy for controlling the pests in the use of lead arsenate and nicotine. The most effective mixture is one containing 15 parts of powdered lead arsenate to 1 0 0 parts of hydrated lime. This is dusted on the plants and does not In any way impair the use of the cabbage for human food, it is* said. Repeated doses of the poison dust are necessary during the season, par ticularly when the heads are forming, if effective control is to be secured. Where cabbage aphids are present tn any appreciable numbers, it is sug gested that I per cent nicotine be added to the poison dust. This will rid the plants of the lice at the same time that protection is . provided against. the ravages of the cabbage worms. Sweet Com Is Ambition of Every Home Gardener Sweet com is the ambition of every home - gardener. Only home-grown com is really sweet. Com from the market, while excellent as food, has lost the sugar content before it can come to the table. Fresh picked corn alone retains the sugary quality which makes it the most popular summer vegetable. Removed from the stalk, a chemical change starts which, turns the sugar into starch and the com has a corn taste but not a sweet one If ft remains four hours before going Into the ket tle, for scientists tell us that this changing of sugar Into starch is ac complished In about that time. That is why a suspicion' so often arises that sweet com sold In the market is field corn or, as It is often called, “horse com.” It was sweet corn once. Time has stolen the sweetness.

Silage Made From Shock Com With Plenty of Water Good silage can be made from shock com provided enough water is run In the silo while the filling is done to wet the silage enough so that it will properly pack to exclude the air. The best way to put the water into the silo is to pump it directly into the distributing pipe while the filler is running. "Where this, cannot be done the water must be hauled In a tank and then run directly Into the fan of the filler. After the filling is com pleted more water should be pumped onto the silage provided it can be done. Colorado Beetle Is Most Serious Pest Add Arsenate of Lead to Regular Bordeaux Spray. Two pounds of arsenate of lead added, to the regular bqrdeaux spray mixture will control potato bugs ef fectively. Those who have calcium arsenate and a cotton duster may use these effectively but the man who de pends on picking the bug to save his potatoes has a hopeless task. “The Colorado potato beetle Is a serious pest of potatoes,” says C. H. Brannon, extension entomologist at the North Carolina State college. “The plants are first attacked by the over winter beetles and' later by the first generation of slugs. If the pest Is not poisoned, the plants are soon ru ined, leaving the stems which become dry and black. No grower should per mit the bugs to damage his crop. Control measures are: simple and ef fective. The best remedy is to use two pounds of arsenate of lead with the bordeaux mixture made with four pounds of bluestone, four pounds of stone lime and 50 gallons of water.” Mr. Brannon states that the arse nate of lead will poison the bugs while the bordeaux will repel flea beetles and leaf hoppers. Paris green will not give as good results as the arse nate of lead as a poison for the beetles. Several applications of poison will have to be made and the fields should be watched closely to see that the beetles are kept under control. Good Stand of Alfalfa Kills Canada Thistles That a good stand of alfalfa will de stroy Canada thistle In three years was revealed by a study of eleven suc cessful demonstrations recently made by A. A. Hansen of Purdue university. The study of the demonstrations, which were located In six different counties in Indiana and involved 22 acres of thistles scattered over large areas of farm land, showed that al falfa will successfully subdue the this tles only where good stands of the legume are secured. Since more than one year is required to do the job, a hardy variety of alfalfa such as the Grimm or Ontario Variegated is essen tial. Weakening the thistles by fall plowing, by thoroughly preparing the seed bed and by cutting with a hoe while the alfalfa is young, is also nec essary to enable the legume to get ahead of the thistles. The frequent cutting, the vigorous, spreading alfalfa root system, and the heavy shade cast by the legume ac count for the ability of the alfalfa to subdue the prickly thistles. The meth od is of no value on sour, wet soils or where conditions are otherwise not suitable to alfalfa growing, and seed inoculation is necessary to secure the type of alfalfa growth necessary to success. Blighted Chestnut Tree Aids Fence Post Supply Chestnut trees that are partially or entirely killed by the blight lose their bark in two or three years and then the trunk season-checks and soon depreciates rapidly. For this reason, Prof. J. A. Cope, extension forester at the New York State College of Agricutture at Ithaca, N. Y., says farmers who are cutting their annual supply of fence posts or grape stakes should use chestnut He says it Is better to cut the posts and store them for future use if there Is no need or market for them now than to let them stand and waste. The blight which attacks this, tree has covered "the natural range of the species in the entire state and, even in Chautauqua county which was the last to be hit, signs of its attack may be seen. Professor Cope says, "It is doubtful if a single sound, living tree is still standing In the rest of the state.” As for other uses of chestnut tim ber, companies erecting communica tion or power lines need poles,-so trees that are large enough may be sold for that-purpose. Sound, wormy chestnut logs are In demand also, for the wood is considered an excellent base for high grade veneers.

The Family Doctor. Asheville Citizen. While a lot of people are predict ing the disappearance of the old- time general practitioner of inedi cne in surrender to the craze for specialization in the art of healing, Dr. Charles H. Mayo, one of the nation’s greatest surgeons, declares that it can never happen. At in tervals of every two hundred years or so he said an interview in Chi cago, specialization comes to the fore in medicine, and general prac tice and the general practitioner go into the background, but always the “old family doctor” comes back into prominence. There is no, he admitted, a dan ger that we will have too many specialisis, but when that happens, there will be a reversal of the cycle, the general practitioner will come into his own again and the specialist will become the techni cian. The general practitioner will care for the sick, will make the diagnosis and call in the specialist, either for operation or for work in a special field.” Dr. Mayo did not mention an other big reason why the old fami ly doctor will never disappear. This is the refusal of the masses to let him die out. They want’ somebody to whom they can tell their trou bles, the things that touch the spirit as well as the body, the pro blems of the emotions and the pro blems of the physique—somebody who has buried the old folks and brought the children into the world —somebody who, with an unfail ing insight, and any-itiexbafistile sympathy, will sit beside, the bed for a "chat” or take the role of the father confessor. The specialist is indispensible. The people know that he can work wonders against an ailment which the family doctor has found to be beyond his skill. They go to him, feeling that, unless he can save them, they are irretrievably lost. But the specialist’s office is crowd ed and business like. The special ist has not had an opportunity to know them and their families. The atmosphere and the conditions are not conducive to chats and cohfi- iugs. ____________ Cole Blease On Smith. "I am not against Al Smith, but I do not think he can be elected President ot the United States,” said Senator Cole Blease, of South Carolina, as he talked with a Ga zette representative. "The people of the South will not vote for Al Smith,” he went on to say, "but, on the other hand I do not think they will vote a Re publican ticket should Al Smith be nominated. In the first place he will never be nominated. Nor will McAdoo. Personally, I think Borah of Idaho, is the best candidate for the Democrats. He is a Republi can Senator, you know, but at heart he is a good Democrat as there is in the Senate. "I do not think Smith’s religion has anything to do with it at least it ought not to have. You never hear anybody complaining about the taxes the Catholics pay, do you? They are all right, and all this talk about Smith being a Catholic is the bunk. ‘What the Democrats of the South ought to do, and I have openly advocated this, is. to get to gether m a caucus, or convention, call it what you will, in Atlanta, Montgomery, or some big city, and make out a ticket from the South, take it to the national con vention and demand recognition. The South and the East together could elect a President. We have just a much brains and ability in the South as they have anywhere ese,” said the senator.—Gastonia Gazette, Our Overworked Feder al Judges. We note that Judge Isaac M. Meekins of the the eastern federal court district, is leaving early in J ulv for a stay of several weeks in Europe. Only last week it was an nounced that Judge E.

Andyet ithasbeen less than a year since the Macedonian cry went up from these two judges that the federal court dockets of the two districts in the State were clog ged to suffocation and especially vehement was Judge Webb, that unless relief was soon forthcoming he would lose his health, that they were absolutely working him to death. Of course all sensible people how realize that there was a mistake somewhere for didn't this same Judge Webb spend nearly two months in Europe last year and was there a single court held in his district that the full two-weeks term was held? Didn't he rush thru a certain court last fall so that he could go to a football game at Wake Forest? We are not so well informed as to Judge Meekins’ district but we do know that on several occasions he went to New York and Chicago and held courts for several weeks duration. Yet Representative Balwinkle and Representative Weaver both got ujf on the floor of congress and Stated • that- . they / never - heard of. Judge Webb taking a vacation, and Gastonia where Bulwinkle Iiv-. es less than 50 miles from Shelby, and Asheville, where Zeb Weaver resides is not more than 75 miles, Whythese men would make this statement in. ,order to carry their point when they knew it was not true is beyond comprehension and something ther constituents would Iixe for them to explain. If a pub lic officer will make a misstatement about one thing in order to carry his point will he be truthful and accurate oh other questions? We feel so sorry for Judges Webb and Meekins that they have been so overworked and their health so' shattered that Europe beckons them to come over and spend some of that $10,000 a year that they are: getting for about four months actual work. : Judge Hayes recently appointed to relieve the "congestion” has been ordered to go to the eastern district aud hold a few courts next month for Judge Meekins aud we presume he will prove a handy man also to relieve • poor Webb of the congregation in the western district if the laper does not get back from Europe iu time to at tend to the courts himself. —Union Republican. WhyTheHurry. A careful check of the automo bile speeders discloses the fact that most of them are going nowhere in particular aud have nothing espe cially to do-when they get there. The beautiful pictures which na ture paints along the country roads and the music of the babbling brooks and gay colored song birds mean nothing to them:. Their e3rs catch nothing but the-steady hum of the engine and their eyes see nothing but the climbing dial of the speedometer. .With well-tuned motors they usually beat the train to the crossing, but sometimes their act ends in tie—and the journey to the cemetery the speed is somewhat reduced.—Ex. Au oyster drinks about ejghty quarts of water daily. , No doubt he hopes the "dry” mauia won’t be earned too far.—Ex. A Difference Of Opin ion. Can a farmer be prosperous and not know it? Evidently so, if state ments of officers of the railway train service brotherhood are to be be lieved. Railroad employes, through their train service brotherhoods, are try ing by arbitration to compel the railroads to increase the wages of trainmen, and when railroads an swered that farmers were complain ing and demanding lower, rates and that wage inches would necessitate rate increases would recessitace rate increases, W-. C. Whitney, vice-pre sident of the Brotherhood of Rail- WavTrainmen, had this to say: "I firmly believe that the farmer farmer, has progressed more rapidly than the railroad man or any other than who works for a daily or month ly wage. According to an investi gation I have recently made, appro ximately 97 per cent of .the Nebras ka farmers own automobiles and 89 per cent have telephones, and what is true in this respect in Nebraska is very largely trne in Iowa. Minnesota and other granger states. Their homes are equipped with bathrooms, electric lights aad other modern con j vinienees, very largely to the samej extent as tbe better classes in the cities. It is a matter tf common knowledge that hundreds of farmers are retiring annually and moving to j the towns and cities to live in con » fort and ease ” This is strong talk against rate re., duction and in favor of rate increase on farm products, than any rail road ever presented. It does not harmonize with the stories of dis tress phesentep by the advocates of Tarm relief legislation. Farm relief advocates may say that the railroad employes are talk ing to justify an! increase in their wages, and the other will answer that the politicians are talking to increase their votes, with the farm er between the two millstones.— Hickory Record. nnnmmaanwnimmu The Prosperous Farmer In every farming community there is- at least one farmer who is unusually prosperous. His neigh bors sometimes say that he is lucky! ■that each year he manages to I plant the crops which makes the best yields that year. But if we go a little deeper- we will find that he follows a simple rule. He lives at home. He produces what he and the animals on his farm con-, shme. He thus goes through the leap years without debt- aud it is able to put aside the money which good crops and high prices bring —Claiborne Progress. First Prize. Substitutes. A city lady who had a few chick ens decided that if she mixed a lit tle saw dust with the mash she would be money ahead, for she paid almost as much for the mash as she got for the eggs. Every day she added more saw dust and less mash,’ and the chickens laid the same number of eggs as. they did before. Finally she was feeding them 90 per cent saw dust and '10 per ceut mash. Biddy wanted to set, so she set heron fourteen eggs. Biddy performed her duties well, the twenty first day the fourteen eggs hatched, thirteen chicks had wooden legs, and tl e fourteehth was a woodpecker.—Miss Marie1 Reuther, Monticello, Iowa. . j j ■ -I' ' 'J’’ ^ ■ It is about time for a good look ing blonde to kill a mm NOTICE.

So far as we have been able to learu no one from Davie county is making arrangements to fly across the Atlantic ocean or run 1'or pre sident in 1928. Partisan politics plays too big a part in the growth and develop ment of this town. What we need here is more mannfactniing enter prises and fewer politicians. No rea son why the Democrats and Re publicans shouldn’t work together for the upbuilding of the town and county and lay politics aside for a short while. Prom the looks of the new De mocratic State Chairman, as pic tured i 1 the Greensboro News, the Republicans had better begiu to or gauize right ,now. That fellow looks like he would carry the whole .United States Democratic if such a thing were possible. His counten ance doesn’t seem to indicate i pleasant disposition—in other words he looks like he hasn’t much love for a Republican. Geoege Evans, who has served Davie county for the past several years as couuty demonstration a- geut, has done much to help put Davie on the map. He has worked both early and late for the farmer, the cattle raiser and *oonl- trvmau to improve their lauds, their cattle and poultry. ■ We be lieve he has done more for the rural folks than any other one man in the couuty. The Record is migh ty sorry that he has resigned his position, but glad that he is going to remain a citizen of the county. Davie has made rapid progress a- long agricultural and . live stock lines .since Mr. Evans came into the county. His place will be hard to fill. The Record man spent a short while in Western Carolina and East Tennessee recently. We were very favorably impressed with the fine system of roads in North' Ca rolina, and also glad to see that the gpod old Volunteer State,was also making progress in road building. We have one excellent road tbiough the Western Carolina mountains ’connecting us with East Tennessee. This is highway No. 10 to Asbe- tilile,: which connects there with rotate No. 20, running from Wil- Intngtbn via Charlotte and Ashe ville to the Tennessee state line just west of Paint Rock. This route connects with route 9 at the Ten npssee state line, running to New port and connecting with route 65 via Sevierville to Knoxville, and with route 32 t'o Morristown. The people of East Tennessee are work ing hard for another good road running from Knoxville via Sevier- ville through the Great Smoky Mountains to Bryson and connect ing therewith route 10, which runs from Georgia Iiue near M urphy to Morehead City, a distance of 587 miles. ; This new road would have to be built only a distance of about 50 miles, and is to be known as the Indian Trail Highway. We trust that the people of - Swaim and Cherokee counties will do every- "thing possible to help East Tennes see make this important connect ing Ijnk with North .Carolina, At tfiS^ffsfent time there are but two highways connecting North Caro lina anid Tennessee—No. 20 to Newport and No. 36 to Jonesboro and Johnson City. Another out let for both states is badly needed. Here’s hoping some active steps Will be taken at an early date to get this road. j Mr. and Mrs. F. M.

CHAPTER VI—Continued —11— “How about me?” the young Claude had asked, and realized as he said it that it was a fool’s question. And the girl had laughed. “Oh, after tonight you won’t count” She had dared to say it, actually dared to look him in the eyes and say it “Is that so?” the boy had snapped, and he hai never been angrier In his life-. Rebellion seethed within him. And yet, he remembered, he had not hated her. “After tonight,' eh? Well, the night’s still young.” Something In the way he said that, struck through her laughing guard. Her expression changed. She began to look ever so little—what was it— frightened? “It’s getting late. I think you'd better go.” “It’s my last night,” he had an swered, without moving. “Why cut it short?” Then she had moved to the door, swiftly, and held it open. He rose to his feet somehow and moved with her. He could not have told exactly why, but there was a dangerous feel ing growing up inside him. Tetj now that he understood his younger self, Claude Dabbs felt if the girl had not looked so scared, the feeling would not have grown as fast, nor been so dangerous. If she had laughed at him, he would have been ashamed. If she had trusted him he would have been compelled to be worthy of her trust. But she saw, and feared, the flood tide of feelings she had delib erately evoked and something in her must have answered his passion. She was deadly afraid of that—as well as of him. “I want jou to go now,” she had said, hard, cold and staring. “If you don't, I’ll call down to the office.” He had faced her and shut the door, and now he was sure he hated her. “Go on,” he had said grimly. “Call ’em up at the office. What you going to tell ’em? That Tm not your hus band?” She shook her head. He could see her face, puzzled, bewildered, fright ened. “That I am your husband, and you don’t care about having me ’round?” She still stared at him, her mouth open in an odd, babyish way that, angry as he was, he remembered he had thought pretty. “It’ll make your stay in this house short, if you start a row like that” She sprung to the doqr, but Claude was there before her. Their hands met on the handle, and somehow, at his touch, she had given up, and swayed against him. Claude felt a little shiver run through his strong body now at the remembrance of how it had “finished” him, too, but not in the way either of them dreamed. He was beyond reasoning or thought then. He was entirely given up to feeling. He put his arm about her waist and held her closely to him as he turned the key in the door. “You can have the key,” he had whispered, in a queer, husky voice, “when you call down to the office and say that the man in your room isn’t your husband, and you want to get rid of him.” She had looked at him, given a queer little sound, .and hidden her face against his shoulders. *•*»**» . Claude Dabbs stared before him, his lips moving. After awhile he lit his cigar, crossed one leg over the other, and began to talk, In an even voice, quite as though be was continuing his narrative to Ned from the point he had left off. “Next morning I went out for a stroll before breakfast, and to settle In my mind a plan I meant to carry through quickly, before Polly made up her own mind. We’d talked lots about everything, but nothing was settled. “Nobody’ll ever know how wonder ful it was to me to have Polly to talk to. It changed everything. There wasn’t a girl In Peace Valley could talk as she did, none I knew, anyway ; and the short while I’d been at Rut gers I hadn’t met any girls, except Polly. She made me realize that we'd been fond of each Other for a long time, though it had taken this to bring us together.” Claude looked up at Ned, ivho with a languid movement of his hand re-, moved the cigarette from between his lips. Claude noted Idly that it was not lit. He glanced at the wall above Ned’s desk. A small photograph In an old-fashioned frame hung above it. It was that of a lovely young country girl, with character behind the young loveliness. She was Claude’s mother. "Ton see, Ned,' I’d always been queer about girls. I liked ’em, but expected a good deal of ’em. Not every girl pleased me. Sounds con ceited, but I don’t mean it that way. It wasn’t that—it was Mom.” His eyes turned again to the photo graph. "It’s one of those things you can’t find words for. It’s a feeling. Anyway, Mom gave it to me about girls, and Polly was the flfrst. I meant she should be the last. I felt that if we were careful enough about explaining our marriage to Mom she would understand and be pleased. But Bhe never knew. “Nobody’ll ever know how wonder ful life was to me that morning. I hadn't forgotten Pop, but-since I’d told Polly just how I felt about him, , and she’d tried to comfort me, I could j bear it easier, because Polly under stood. I forgot all about, her money. It never entered my head. I only B y Margaret TtirnbtiII Copyright, 1925, by U arsaret Turnbull* 1WWJ Service thought of Polly. When I was going OUtr She kissed me and said: “ ‘Claude Melnotte, is your home lit by alabaster lamps?’ “I thought she was Just fooling about my silly name. She’d read the play, you see. I hadn’t, then. I Just told her they were Rochester lamps. When I thought about It, as I turned back toward the hotel, I wondered if there was more to her question than Just lamps—something behind it. I thought she inlght have been turning over in her mind whether she’d live with Mom, or insist on having a sepa rate house for Just us two. I didn't care. She could have her own way about that—and most everything else, too. But I’ve read the play since, and I’m pretty sure that there was a catch in it. Her question, I mean.

She wasn’t there, and her trunks were gone. I went to In quire at the desk. They said the bill had been paid and Polly had gone, bag and baggage, to the station, half an hour after I left” Claude paused, knocked the ashes from his cigar, and without looking up, went on hurriedly: “I’m not ask ing for sympathy. The girl served me right, and I know it as well as you do. I've told' you this, Ned—and you’re the only one I have told—because I want you to know the worst of me. “PoUy knew blame well I couldn’t follow her, seeing she had money and I had none. Her lawyer, all these years, has refused to give me any clue. But she’s never divorced me. Unless I’m much mistaken, the Mrs. Johnston who is up at the White house is Polly, and what I want to know is who is Miss Johnston?” A little sound, like a sigh, came from Ned and he thmed gently on his pillow, and then silence. Claude Jumped to bis feet and went noiselessly over to the bed. Ned was. sleeping as quietly as a child. Claude took the cold, unlighted ciga rette from between Ned’s fingers and looked at him with affection. “Forty-seven years old, and I don’t have sense enough to know or remem ber that other people’s love stories are as big a bore as other people’s dreams I” He turned out the lamp and left the room. In the morning, when he could get Dabbs alone, Ned’s apologies were sin cere. But though Ned insisted that he had only dropped off at the end, Claude had a shrewd idea 'from the lame way In which Ned fished for In formation, that slumber had over taken him in the middle of the tale. They were In the garage where Ned, had tracked him down, and he only laughed as he put his hand on Ned’s arm. "My boy, I was an ass to insist on telling you my old trouble. BoUed down, without any of the frills I put on so that you would get my side of the case, the facts are that I sUpped up on my promise, broke my word to Polly, and she ran away. And Peace VaUey thinks me an old bachelor.” He had made up his mind that it wasn’t the thing to teU Ned his sus picious IintU he had corroborated them, or dropped them. It would be awkward for the boy, since he was seeing the Johnstons daily. CHAPTER VII Mrs. Johnston, having something rather disagreeable to tell Mary, kept putting off the evU day and hour. Sooner or later It must be told, but Polly Johnston, though by no. means a fool, was of a singularly sanguine temperament She StUl hoped that kind fortune might intervene in some miraculous manner and save her the trouble and necessity of telling. H not, it would have to be done, but not this day, Cf she could help it Having come to that decision, it behooved her to keep away from Mary. She could refuse to go out, pleading a headache, thus, removing herself from Mary’s presence and scrutiny. When the girl presented herself, fresh, smiling, and ready for motor ing, she found her mother lying down. She did not see the novel that her mother had poked under her pUlow when she' heard Mary coming. Ex planations were made, received, and then came sUence. Mrs. Johnston wriggled herself into a more comfortable position, and the novel fell on the floor. Mary restored it to the couch. Mother never read when she had a real headache. ...The situation became tense. “Come, Mother,” coaxed Mary, "what’s up? Tou’ve been grouching sweetly for several days, you know. Tve got to know sooner or later, so let It be now.” Mrs. Johnston sighed, made a swift mental calculation that she had bet ter tell the most obvious first, and be gan: “I can’t keep it from you forever, but I did want to keep it just a little longer. However, here it is, Mary. I haven’t any money. Not a cent And the dividends on the stock, pay able this montb, Just aren’t going to be paid.” Mary gave a little, gasp of astonish ment and sat down on the floor by the couch. “Do you mean, Mother, that we haven’t any money at all, or that we’re just faced with a period of de pressed finances and WiU have to tide over things until the first of next month, when you’ll get something from somewhere? Tell me the whole thing. The very worst.” Mrs. Johnston saw instantly how useless It was to keep anything back from Mary.' “It means the very worst you can think. I drew the last money I had In the bank to come down here. I expected, of course, to have Colonel Rittenhauser send me enough money to carry me along for another three months. “Well, my dear, he’s been speculat ing with all available money and> se curities. He lost mine along witb those belonging to other people, and he’s In Jail. “The rest of my money Is tied up in stock that Isn’t paying dividends— that is, all except money invested by my uncde In Russian securities, which are now worth nothing.

It’ll be a lot harder for you, Mary, than for me. Just now you ought to have everything.” “Pooh I” said Mary. “Walt tUl you see me suffer. Honestly, Mother, I can’t realize it We’ve never had to speak of money-like this before. Why, we’ve always had It.” “Tou always have,” Mrs. Johnston answered, "but there was a time when I had none.” . Mary was amazed. “Tou never told me that Tou must, but not now. We’ll Just have to be practical, Moth er. What can we seU, and bow shall we go about It?” She considered for a long moment, while her mother watched her. “Bring out your jewel ry, Mother, and I’ll bring out mine. Rent must be paid, you know. W« can do without servants." Mrs. Johnston put her hand on her daughter’s arm as Mary rose from the floor, “Don't dear. I can go to New Tork and borrow money on the land, I’m sure. I was making up my mind to that when you came In.” (TO BE CONTINUED.) *Z*X*Z*X*X*Z*Z*X*Z*X*X*X*X*X*X*X'*X*X*X*X*X*X#Z*X*X*Z'> Gay Colors Put Away in Nature’s Storeroom One of the densest jungles on earth today lies along the Motago river In Guatemala.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Choosine the R leht Kind of Friends.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Oblleations Ot Friendship. The friendship of David and Jona than has become immortalized In the world’s thought It was unique in that it occurred between two men of rival worldly interests. Jonathan was the crown prince, the heir to the throne. David was heir according to the divine choiCe and arrangement. Jonatlian knew this and magnanimous ly waived his natural personal rights to the one be knew God had chosen. I. Friendship Established Between David and Jonathan. (I Sam. 18:1-4). 1. Love at Sight (w. 2). . Following the Interview of Saul and David after the victory over Goliath. Jonathan’s soul was knit with that of David. He loved him as,h'is own soul. While there was mutual love, this pleasing trait stands out more prom inently in Jonathan than in David because it meant great loss to him— the loss of the throne; while it meant immense gain to David, the acquisition of the throne to which he had no nat ural right 2. Covenant established (w. 3, 4). Following the love covenant be tween them, Jonathan stripped himself of his court robe and his equipment and gave th’em to David. This act was a virtual abdication of the throne to David. (I. Jonathan Defended David Against Saul's Frenzy (I Sam. 19:1-7). David went into the battle with Goliath out of zeal for God and true religion—not for personal glory, but It turned out as always that because he made God first, God honored him. Upon David’s return from victory over the Philistin.es, according to Ori ental custom he was met by a tri umphal chorus of women from all the cities of Israel chanting praises to him for his victory over their enemy. They ascribed more-praise and honor to David than to Saul. These women seemed to sing as answering chants. The one sang, “Saul has slain his thousands,” the other answered, “and David his ten thousands.” To hear sung f^ie praises of a shepherd boy surpassing his own was too much for Saul. It aroused murderous envy which had been slumbering in his heart and moved him twice to attempt to kUl David. This wickedness was In his heart as a bitter feeling, but this occasion fanned it into a flame, making It a burning passion of evil. In Saul’s third attempt to kill David, Jonathan defended him before his fa ther and evoked from him the oath that David should not be slain. He thus exposed himself to the anger of his infuriated father for David’s sake. III. Jonathan Revealed to. David Saufc Murderous Intent (I Sam. 20:30-40). The beginning of the new moon was celebrated by sacrifices and feasting at which all the members of the fam ily were expected to be present (v.5). David’s excuse for being absent was that he might go home to attend the yearly sacrifice of the entire family. The annual feast was more Important than the monthly feast Matters were now so serious that Jonathan and David renewed the covenant between themselves. In this renewal the terms were broadened beyond the life of Jonathan (w. 14, 15). Saul’s anger was now so fierce that for Jonathan to be found In David’s company was most dangerous, so he cleverly planned a sign by which he could make known to David Saul’s attitude and purpose. We prove our friendship by warning those, who are exposed to danger. David’s heart responded by pledging fideUty to Jonathan’s seed forever. This pledge was faithfully carried out by David (II Sam. 9:7, 8). Concern ing real friendship observe: L It should be made while both parties are young, when the hearts are capable of being knit together. 2. Beal friends are few. We should be careful In the formation of friend ships. For though we should love everybody we can have but few friends. Friendship should be formed for the purpose of helping each other. There can be no real friendship except where merit Is on both sides. 3. Real friendship can Only be with God-fearing people. Both David and Jonathan recognized their obligation to the Lord.

Isj fa TO PURE TIN YIELDED BY GOLD HILL MINE Oregon’s “Mystery White Metal” Is Identified. Portland, Ore—Pure Md is being ostractei) from the rocks near Gold Hill, in the Rogue River valley. That the white metal is tin has been at tested by assayers in San Francisco, Denver and other places. "We have demonstrated that we have tin. AVe have the mine from v.-Iiifh the tin came. We have put all onr resources into the development to date. Now we want to know whether Partland wants to develop a new industry or whether we must look e!stnvliere.” Such is the statement made by E. F. Logan and E. S. Erskine, ex-resl- dents of Bend, who are in the city to submit their discovery to the Port land Ciiamber of Commerce. Have No Doubts. Much has been written about the "mystery white metal” around Grants Pass. . Some maintain it is tin and others express doubts. There Is no doubt in the minds of Messrs. Logan and Erskine, for they have the con crete evidence and the scientific re ports. These visitors represent the group of men owning the Golden Cross mine, which is three miles out in Sam's valley, north of Gold Hill, and more specifically located on Payne’s gulch through which runs PayHe’s creek, emptying into Uogue river. SI. D. Jackson, prospector, now sev enty-six, discovered the mine, having been grubstaked by Logan, then em ployed building a logging railroad for one of the big sawmill companies of Bend.“For seven years we worked it as a gold* mine,” said Mr. Logan. "We fig ured we had a large body of ore. The vein is 35 feet wide 3,000 feet long, and we don’t know how deep. Two years ago Glen Spurlin, who had worked in Australia and was,familiar with tin. came to us. He told us that our rock contained tin, aiid we thought he was kidding. He rigged up a fur nace and proved It by recovering but tons which were tested and found to be tin. AU Showed Tin. “In two years these tin buttons have been carried away by many peo ple and whenever they have been tested they showed tin. We have built a laboratory and complete equipment We do not* cook rock in kitchen stoves or blacksmith forges, but in a reg ular assayer's furnace. It is done in the approved scientific method. We have produced between fifty and sixty pounds of tin. Some of the ,bars, which we have refined, show analysis of OS per cent pure tin. Not one, but several assayers have given certificates to that effect The ore will average 6 per cent tin. “The ore in our mine is different form other rock from which buttons of metal said to be tin have been ex tracted. "There is no question whatever as to the Identity of our metal. It is tin. We have proved that and are willing to prove it to any one. We would ap preciate if the Chamber of Commerce of Portland or the State Chamber of Commerce would come or send repre sentatives to our property and at first hand Inform themselves as to the pos-' Sibil Ities of developing it.” Convict Costs England Thirty Pounds Yearly London.—Prisoners In British pris ons are mostly under sentence either of hard labor or penal servitude. They work, on an average, seven hours a day. They make mats, mailbags, brushes, mops, shoes. They are car penters. stonemasons. bricklayers, painters, plumbers and so on. Yet the 'value of their yearly work is low.' varying in different prisons from £14 yearly a person up to a maximum of about £24. The average is somewhere about £17, a sum which does hot even cover the cost of a prisoner's food. So the unfortunate taxpayer has to shell out rather more than £H0 a year for each of the thou sands of Inmates of English local and convict prisons. Sixty years ago many of the pris ons were self-supporting. The big prison at Wakefield used to make a handsome profit out of its mats. Tbe average number of prisoners was 600 and the profits ran to.between £6,000 anil £7,000 a year. In those days the cloth for prison uniforms was woven In prisons, stock ings were knitted, furniture was made, and all sorts of trades carried on. Nowadays the prisons make nothing that cannot be used by the post - office, admiralty, or other gov ernment departments. Gaoee Quill TIirivss Among Paris Writers Paris.—The typewriter today is generally acceptcd by American au thors as the quickest and most satis factory method of setting their thoughts on paper. But in France,, where art is still spelled with a capi tal letter, much of the literary output is from quill pens. Thei goose quill is a standard article at stationery •stores. ■ The importance of quills came to light recently when a newspaper con ducted a campaign among writers to discover whether they were music lovers.

Spokane, Vvash.—The Pacific north west Indian, treated once as an enemy of the white man and since his subju gation as a ward, is assuming a self- reliant role as a consequence •£ a movement inaugurated by the red man himself. Paul G. Wapato, full-blood Ameri can Indian, is the moving spirit in the transformation. The crusade' had its inception in the seizure of control of the north west Indian congress by . the new gen eration of Indians following a plea by Wapato for unified thought and ac tion among his race. The coup swept him into the presidency, formerly held by a white man, and carried through a set of declarations voicing the de mands of the younger generation. Since that time Wapato, who is frankly impatient of the story book, moving picture. Wild West Idea of the Indian, has been inducing the tribes of the Pacitic northwest to form as sociations on their various reserva tions for the discussion »f problems and reaching of agreement as to sug gested remedies. -There has been too much complain ing against the w ro n g s 'the. Indians have suffered at the hands of white men, he believes, and not enough effort on the part of Uie Indians to improve their condition. It is bis hope that by the time the next Indian congress convenes in September the various tribes will have agreed on definite and concrete pro posals for settlement of tljeir prob lems instead of sitting by while rep resentatives of the Indian bureau and others discuss them from the white man’s point of view. Wapato, left on bis own resources at the age of thirteen by the death of his father,: worked his way through the Wenatchee high school and Willa mette university, _ where he studied law. His brother.

Finds Mystery Cloud Floats About Mars Berkeley, C aiit-A theory that blue -clouds that defy analysis float about the planet Mars was announced recently by W. H. Wright astronomer at Lick observatory. Wright has been experimenting with color photography as an aid to the usual method of studying planets. He said that although observers had noted the varying color of clouds on Mars previously, they had never attributed it to a difference in struc ture. His latest observations with color screens convinced him, however, that there are two types of clouds in the Martian. atmosphere, one prob ably white, but appearing yellow be cause of the absorbing effect of the' planet’s atmosphere, and the blue clouds, which float at a higher altitude. The yellow, or white, clouds Wright styled water vapor clouds. He has been unable to determine the exact nature of the blue clouds, but he ex pressed belief that much of the prom inence of the planet’s polar caps was due to a blue cloud floating over them. Grinds Plate Glass to Make Telescope Fremont, Neb.—With a section of stovepipe and a piece of plate glass, Gilbert Lueninghoener, student at Midland college, has made a power ful telescope. It took him ten months. He fash ioned the glass into a parabiflic mirror, the most important part of the instrument, by more than 100 hours of grinding, polishing and figuring. In the final polishing he effaced, by hand, irregularities of less than one- hundred thousandth of an inch. He took a piece of ten-inch stovepipe and painted- It- blaclt and white to make the barrel of the telescope. Except for a right-angle prism and an eye piece, the whole instrument is hand made. The device has a magnifying power of 90 diameters—strong enough to en able its maker to study four satel lites of Jupiter, the crescent of Venus, the rings of Saturn, the Orion nebula and the topography of the Moon Crop Increased 20 Per Cient by Electricity Chicago.—A 20 per cent in crease in the yield of farm lands has been obtained through the use of atmospheric electricity as a stimulant to crops, says a report made by a committee of the American Electronic Re search association. Observations are being made on the farm of Henry Surber of Warrenton, Mo., one of the first ■ to claim an increase in crops from applying electric stimiMnt. The method also is being used to cure cancerous vegetable growths. The method -used is merely discharging electricity through the ground at the roots of -the plants, using wires and a device which catches the electric cur rents.from the air. it Is widely used in Prance with success, the report stated. g NEW 8-LAYER MAPS AID FLYERS IN AIR Show What Weather Avi ators' May Expect Washington.—Weather maps In eight layers, showing what conditions the aviator may expect when he flies both low. and high, are now being made regularly as a part of the official government weather report Ground weather observations, alone have been found to be inadequate for flying use, and the hlgh-altltude ob servations have also been found use ful In making the regular weather forecasts. In fact the weather seems to brew at the higher levels, and the observations, obtained by small bal loons and kites, often give informa tion unobtainable at the level of the earth’s surface. 43 Balloon Stations.

The balloons sometimes achieve much higher altitudes. The origin of the wind, whether polar or tropical, is also known to the weather bureau and aids In weather forecasting. As soon as congress makes the nec essary appropriation the United States weather bureau intends to take over the broadcasting of weather con ditions now carried on from the bu reau by the navy through the Arling ton radio station to all parts of the world.

Giant Tin Coffee Pot First Sign of Salem - Winston-Salem, N. C.—Standing at a busy corner as one of the landmarks of old Salem, is a gigantic tin coffee pot capable, if filled, of supplying probably, half the city’s present popu lation with its matutional blend. Many fantastic stories concerning the coffee pot’s origin have surround ed it with a mysterious glamor. But its chief claim to fame lies in the fact it was, perhaps, the first piece of di rect advertising in this section. The pot was erected in 185S by Julius Mickey, tinsmith of the little Sforavian colony of Salem, the first man ever to sell cooking stoves in ,this part of vthe Carollnas. One story has it that it was built to shelter soldiers - during the Civil war.

The- present census shows that the value of agricultural land and build ings in England and AVaIes amounts to £815,000,000; that a further £365,- 000,000 is represented by working cap ital on farms, giving a total of £1,S00,- 000,000 (roughly $5,800,000,000) ‘ in vested in -agriculture. . The last agricultural census in Eng land and Wales was taken in 190S. since which time changes of the most far-reaching character have taken place in English agriculture. The present census, however, is far more comprehensive than was that taken in 190S, and for this reason comparison between present conditions and those existing 17 years ago are not pos sible in every particular.

Caldwell, of Monticello, 111., a practicing physician for 47 years, it seemed cruel that so many- constipated infants and children had to be kept “stirred up” and half sick by taking cathartic pills, tablets, salts, calomel and nasty oils. While he knew that constipation was the cause of nearly all children’s little Ills, he constantly advised mothers to give only a harmless laxa tive which would help to establish natural bowel “regularity.” In' Br. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin mothers have a regulating laxative Virhich they can depend upon whenever a child Is constipated, bilious, feverish or sick from a cold, indigestion or fThankful for Seeing Them “What a lot of automobiles one sees nowadays,’’ remarked the tali man. “l'es, thank heaven!” returned his friend. “It’s the ones we don’t see that send us to the'hospital.” Iernum SAY, “ BAYER ASPIRIN” and INSIST1 Unless yoii see the “Bayer Cross’* on tablets you 11* :1 . • . • • _ jruu occ me oayer i^ross uu i ^ not getting Sie genuine Bayer Aspirin ProVf " Si by millions and prescribed by physicians for 33 * DOES NOT AFFECT THE > Acaejpt onir contains Proven d , t,biet> J f a n d y “Bayer” boxes of p fllggis«- W .

JULIA BOTTOM!.EV- (©. .'92J, by WtBtcrn IfetWtyar i'Blon-1 MOTOR CAMPING MADE PLEASURE New York Grounds Arie Well Policed and Rules Rigidly Enforced. Motor camping would be an unmiti gated pleasure were all the camp sites as clean and free from rnbbish" as those in the New York state forest pre serves, according to Earle B. Knox, writing in the Field and Stream Mag azine. The chief reason for the superior ity of the New York camp grounds over those In many other parts of the country, Mr. Knox believes, lies In the fact that they are well policed and that rules are rigidly enforced. Rules Are Outlined. Some of these rules which enable the state to render the public the greatest possible service with these camps, lean-tos and open fireplaces, and at the same time keep them In harmony with their wild surroundings, are as follows: li No fires except for cooking, warmth or smudge purposes are per mitted. No fire‘shall be lighted un til all inflammable material is re moved to prevent its spread. 2. Lighted matches, cigars, cigarettes or burning tobacco must not be de posited or. left where they may cause fires. 3. No official sign posted, or state ment maintained under permit, shall be defaced. 4. Peeling of bark or injuring trees is prohibited. 5. Dead or down wood may be nsed for fuel by temporary campers. Sanitation Maintained. (I. Camps and adjacent grounds must be maintained in a clean and sanitary condition. Garbage and refuse must either be buried, removed, or burned. Waste materials must not* be thrown into the waters, or waters polluted. 7. No tents (except fanvas without platform) or wooden structures shall be’erected or maintained in the for est preserve, except under written per mission from the conservation commis sion. Tar paper shall not be used, except for roofs of open camps erect ed under a permit 8. No one may claim particular site from year to year or the exclusive' use of the same. 9. The use of the forest preserves or the improvements thereon for pri vate revenues or commercial purposes is prohibited. 10. Any occupied tent or structure, may be removed by the commission. 11. AU campers will be held respon sible for compliance with these rules, and any person responsible for injury of state property will be held liable for damages and penalty. Perfect Drivers Great Menace in Large Cities The mediocre automobile driver must save the traffic situation in our large cities today! says a traffic ex pert. Tbe inferior and the perfect driv ers are causing all the difficulties and are responsible fbr accidents and traffic tieups. It is not difficult to understand bow the Inferior driver causes accidents to his own and other machines, but the “perfect” driver appears too perfect to be blamed. The “perfect” driver never gets in to an accident himself. He never vio lates a traffic rule. He never gives vociferous traffic cops a chance to en joy themselves at hts expense. The “perfect” driver careens down the street just to and not exceeding the maximum traffic speed limit. Pe destrians see him a block away, and even if they have the right of way they hesitate to cross the street as the “perfect” driver speeds toward the crossing. However, he makes a “perfect” stop just to and not beyond the danger line, breaking no traffic laws but frightening, pedestrians' so that they fear to cross the street while* they have a chance. The “perfect” driver is always right. He is so absolutely arid recklessly’ right that other drivers and pedestri ans fear him. He is the most dis rupting element in the traffic situa tion. Auto Lock Is Invented for Forgetful Drivers Locksto safeguard automobile driv ers against their own carelessness are being tested in the underwriters’ lab oratories at Chicago. The forgetfulness of drivers of in sured cars who park their cars un locked and walk away with the feel ing that the ihsurance company “can do the worrying” has induced the Na tional Automobile Underwriters’ con ference to withdraw recognition of locking devices in the writing of in surance. To meet the situation a new lock is being developed. The new lock is so designed that when, the driver switches off the igni tion to stop the engine he automati cally locks the car. Few drivers, in surance, companies find, are In the habit of forgetting that an engine, needs gasoline to keep running. The breaking of the ignition circuit is al most a subconscious operation with the average .driver. The laboratories have recognized 8 number of locks so made that the mechanism which breaks the circuit also locks the car, but this lock Is the first that performs both operations at the same time.

Baxter Clement died Tues day morning at the old Clement homestead where he was born 88 years ago. Surviving are his widow one daughter, Mrs. Sam Hines of Winston-Salem; Baxter Clegg Cle ment, Jr., and J Frank Clement, of Mocksville; two brothers Charles A. Clement and J. L. Clement. Dr. Clement was a sole surviving cavalry captain o.f General Deer- ing’s command. He, with his fath er, Captain Tesse Clement raised the first company, the Davie Grays to volunteer front this section. The overflow of his father's command elected "Young Captain r,ax” as he was called, as their command ing officer before he was yet 21. Only three soldiers of Company E. 16th North Carolina Battalion survive him—his brother. J. L. Clement, who joined him as a 17- year-old boy; John Jones of Davie and Philip Hauser of Forsyth. In April before the surrender Captain Clement with six of his command while executing an order of Geueral Roberts was taken pri sotier and transferred to the officers’ prison 011 Lake Erie, where he re mained until several months after the surrender. Immediately following the war he took his medical course at what is uow Tulane University, New Or leans and began the practice of his profession with his brother, Dr. William Clement. Fuueral services for Dr. Clement were conducted from the Methodist ch,urch Wednesday afternoon at 3 o’clock. Pall-bearers were Nor man Clement, Charles Clement of Atlanta; Dick Barber, Ji., of Way nesville; Mr.- Yancey of Oxford; Will Collins and Sam Hines, of Winston-Salem. Farmer and Farm Wo mens Picnic.

Convention was held at Elberville, July iolh.

Sisk. Anderson and Thompson conducted the de votional services. Dinner was ser ved on the grounds and were en joyed by all that were present. Every township in the county was represented but to our sorrow so many Sunday Schools failed to an swer when called. The writer has had talks with most of the .Ministers iu our coun ty all agreed that the success of there church depends largely on the Sunday Schools; and if that is true which I believe is, let me ask this one question why did they not take interest enough to at least see to it that these Sunday schools were represented in the County Convention, as only these that at tend can bring back to tbeir schools the very things that the County Sunday School Association intend ed to bring to the people. I think that if JIiuister and every Sunday School Superintendent and Teach er had been interested euough in this great work they would after attending, had a better understand ing in conducting their Sunday schools and creating more interest and would have been the means not only holding our own but we would be of such nature that others would gladly come and take part with us; let us see to it that this does not happen again and let us all get behind our county officials and help to put over this great pro gram the next year.

London County Progress. This editor has voted every time he has had au opportunity to sus tain the Volstead law and has been shot while raiding a still, but stor ies of enforcement of the laws which have come to our ears in the past few months are so revolting we wonder some times if conditions are not almost as bad as during the days of the open saloon. Men and women have been shot down by outlaws, clothed with the govarnment stamp of prohibition officers The state courts as e not allowed to try these assassins and in most cases they are turned, loose to repeat their murderous acts. We have heard oi a sheriff every member whose family sold whiskey in the jail to prisoners and to out siders, yet no indictment was found against any of them in a court which gained notoriety for sending several people to the penitentiary for liquor violations. We have heard of a judge who accepted from a bootlegger a quan- ity of whiskey and then tried the bootlegger for violation of the liquor law and the bootlegger was acquit- ed. We have heard of a foreman of a grand jury whose son is a notor ious moonshiner and bootlegger, but the son was not indicted after weeks of . investigation in which many more unfortunate persons were indicted and placed in jail ot under bond. Law enforcement is the hope of any community against outlawry, but such enforcement - as above mentioned means only the undoing of the law. When laws are en forcement only against certain in dividuals contempt tor the law is the natural outgrowth. It has been truly said: "Set |a thief to catch one,” but this has nothing to do with selecting this class to eu- force the laws Politics should be selected to enforce these laws Un til this is done the farce will re main a stench in the nostrils of honest men.
