Wouldn’t Let Him Out. A Kansas City man didn’t get home until pretty late one night last week, and a night or so later, about the time his wife was begin- niag to quiet down a bit and talk “bout somethiug else, the telephone the home rang at a late hour. Fhe wife answered the call. ‘ 'This is is the chief of the fire-depart- IllenL" said the voice on the wire. Your husband's store is on fire an<l I thought perhaps he had bet- terCome down." "Yeah,” said file wife, "that’s a good story. be doesu’t go out again to­ night," The voice iusisted that fbe store was on. fire, but tne wife would uot be convicted, and refused ® call her husband to the phone. eSt morning the husband 'found I at the place had been found that f e place bad been on fire and the atHage from the fire and water was eOiisiderable. “No matter.” says e Wife, “You couldn’t have°ne any -g00(j jf y0U JlatJ g0ne there.1' • Judge Stack’s Sentence. High Point Euterprise. JudgeStacksentenced a mau in Forsyth superior court to four mouths on tlfe roads for haviug and possessing a little di inking whiskey. .The fact of the.purchase seemed well substantiated, but it is unusually to hear of a long sent­ ence for the buyer in the law-break ing transaction of bootlegging. . If prohibition is to be made effect­ ive the buyer must be reached by the law. His respect for the law must be developed somehow and possibly the manner of its develop raebt is indicated by the judge’s sentence at Winston-Salem. The fundamental difference be­ tween the bootleger and his custo­ mers is not as great as many ordi narily good citizens like to fancy it is. The seller of whiskey is en­ gaged in the trade to fill his purse; the buyer is moved presumdly by his physical desire for the beverage The twain are equally contemptu­ ous of (he law and together are guilty of its violation. The presumption is supported by experience that the booJegger's cus­ tomer on th'e whole is a better citi­ zen than the bootlegger but that makes bis role in the whiskey law violation all the more important and emphasizes the necessity for convicting him of. his error, Judge Stack’s manner of dealing with the bootlegger’s customer may be co­ pied widely as the courts realize the futility of handling one side of an unlawful transaction and that the less stable side. Modem Youth Not AU Right. We have defended modern youth time and time again. The testi­ mony that condemns the boys and girls of today is strong but the Tri­ bune has thought that greater pub­ licity, ,attending modern youth’s flings, has created an impression of greater wrong doing. Now comes the' word of Alonzo A. Stagg famous football coach, the athletic director of Chicago Univer­ sity, who denies that the present generation of boys and girls are ‘.‘all right,” modern youth, he de­ clares, is on the downward oath Air. Stagg does uot waste his time denouncing the young people. Rather does he point to parents the respodsibility which is theirs, say­ ing ‘ parents are side-tracking their responsibilities in raising children.” Whether one agrees to his con­ clusion as to modern youth, it is easy to agree with him when he declares that "in the last analysis, if we are to make men of our boys and real women of our girls, the pareuts must set an example for them in courage, perseverance, honesty, co-operation aud self-mast­ ery.”—Elkin Tribune. Take Your Choice. A alligator, large of jaws and sea­ soned in years, has slipped into the eity reservoir in High Point and the fact is being poiuted out to bathers w h o are supposedly in the habit of taking a dig in the tank frotp which High Pointers quench their thirst The alligator may keep the bathers out of the city reservoir, but there may be some folks who can’t decide between the desirabilityof drinking after a gator or a person. For our part, however, consider ing the type of person who would go swimming in a city reservoir, we will choose the alligator ten ways from Sunrise.—Ex.

Princeton Tiger, Aoothfr Democratic Graft. According to a Raleigh report the State paid the the past year, a jbtal of . $214,117 in traveling ex­ penses for the department Eeads aud employes and it is said, that an effort-wili be made to.check this extravagance this year. , We thought that when the wings of Secretary of 'State Everette- were clipped a couple of years ago and the four automobiles used by clerks in his office were sold that this ex­ pense would be reduced but it seexns not.

I i P Today's parents who. throwjup their hands hopelessly, aghast’ aiid bewildered by the disregard (ft-Jaw among their'Sons and daughters,' can find a sound explanation fbr the aituation.in thpirynyn. petty ,djshqil; esties ’ ‘ ' This is the-accusation hurled at the older generation by Anhe Shan­ non Monroe, the writer, presenting in August Good'Housekeeping the result of dishonest traits, among children. Here are some of the people who, she says, sow the seeds of example which are bearing fruit in youthful hold-ups, shootings, thefts and other crimes; The mother tells "white lies” aud who has herself redacted "not at home” when she wishes to avoid a boresome visitor or other tiresome obligations. The mother who “forgets” to re­ turn cooking materials, stamps, car fare and other little things borrow­ ed from; neighbors and friends. The father who trims the edges of honesty in his business dealings. “The boy of today who cuts red tape and goes directly to the tills to steal is only a little farther along on the road than his father, or some other equally weli stationed boy’s father, who looted a trust fund, or his grandfather who sold fake min­ ing stock,. or his greatgrandfather who accepted a friend’s endorsement of his note when he knew that he was insolvent. Money borrowed from a rela tive or friend, which we think does uot have to be returned,” the ai tide points out. is oue of the surest means of cultivating a dishonest family strain. A certain mother comes to my mind.” says the writer. “She mort­ gaged her home t.o send her daugh­ ter to college on the understanding that the daughter wou|d teach school and pay off the debt. But the first year’s earnings the daughter Went to Europe;-with the'second she took a post-graduate course; with the third she got married; with the third she got married; with the fourth she buried the mother who had worked and worried herself in­ to-her grave trying to save the borne. And yet today this daughter is one of the leading spirits in the community in the fight against crime.wave, apparently wholly un­ conscious of her own crime against her mother.”—Ex .; What has become of the old .fash­ ioned parent Wbd used to see that the children, studied the Sunday school lessons regularly?

"Work being done by the North Carolina Highway Commission forces under direction of Captain Charles S. Currier, Seventh; Dis frict engineer, on construction of the Yadkin River bridge on Route 90 between Lexington-and' Mocks- ville is progressing rapidly, said Captain Currier yesterday. “The bridge is located on the river near Yadkin College and is on the dividing line between Davie Davidson counties. “The construction work has reached the point where approxi­ mately half the ahutments have been placed* in, said Captain Cur­ rier. It is the first bridge of this type to be constructed by the North Carolina Highway Department aud is one of the longest. ' There is one bridge and possibly two-actually longer than the Yadkin structure, said Captian Currier, but there is ncne better. “The bridge will' cost, when completed, approximately $160,000 and wili be one of the most mod- ernly constructed in the State. It ii being built with the outstanding i lea of long years of service as well as attractiveness. Itwillbe 1.025 feet long and there will be eleven 82 feet spans and fifty-two 57^- fOot spans, making it substantial in ejvery particular. '; "The highest place in the bridge, af the deepest place in the center of. the. middle. span, will be 57.8 There is no'way of telliug just. Wheu this bridge will lbe complet­ ed,” said Captain Currier yester­ day. . The type is such that there is a great deal of work to be done and it will be several months, I guess, liefore it will be completed. “Highway work all over the Seventh Highway District is mov­ ing along steadily," the district en gineersaid. Linkshere aud there are being built tying up highways and while there are no.nevv projects under way at present, all roads are being put in the very best- possible condition It Was Ever Thus. Randolph county is enjoying the luxury of a Democratic- board of commissioners, four of the five members being Democrats and the Ibue Republican on the board has his hands t:ed as completely as if he were uot present. For this lux­ ury the taxpayers of Randolph this coming year will, have to. pay a tax increase of 25 cents • on the hundred dollars valuation of pro­ perty. Last year it was ouly a dol­ lar, but then that is what the peo­ ple of thejconuty voted for last fail and they have no one to blame- but themselves. It is a little tough oh the Republicau citizenship of the county to have to pay this extra tax amounting to a twenty-five per cenl advance just for the luxury of having a Democratic board of com- missioners.—Unian Republican.

Such is life in the Democratic par­ ty in the Old North State. The Walker Brothers show came to town last week but from what; we cau learn tbey didn’t carry much Mocksville or Davie county money away with them. Until the cotton and tobacco markets open the people in this section will not have much money —not enough to pay the preacher, the doctor and the editor.

If we are not mistaken bi£ advertising circulars for merchants in Salisbury and Winston-Salem have been car tied over our town for many years by ceftain boys and not a word was said about paying any $5 tax.

The crowd was estimated at about 200, or 250. And all seemed happy and in per­ fect harmony. The same officers were re-elected and the reports were cheerfutly a- dopted, and all suggestions hearti­ ly agreed to, the singing was fine, and the dinner good and plenty. Only two deaths in the family reported since the last meeting. The talk by T. A. Dennis was to the point and good. So were the devtional services, the reading and talks. Tbe greatest feature was meeting and talking over the past, pre­ sent, and feature, and .all anxious to live so as to meet in the final home-coming in the New Jerusa­lem. A W im tW .

Americans used about six times their oim weight of the material as com­ pared with little more than two times the weight of the population at the beginning of the Twentieth century. In 1500 the total estimated output of steel and iron for the entire world was about 50,000 tons, says’’Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Americans Use More Electricity Ntnvadays The ordinary daily life of the aver­ age American is growing more electri­ cal every year. In 1925 the average home in thid country used 365 kilo­ watt-hours of electrical current or about enough In a day to operate 20 ordinary house lamps one hour. In 1926 the consumption had grown to 400 kilowatt-hours per family,' an in­ crease of about 10 per cent. Tlie rates throughout the land experienced a slight decrease so that even though people used one-tenth more electricity, the average family bill for the year 1926 was only §29.24 as compared with S27.S9 the year before. These statis­ tics are the result of a nation-wide survey made by Electrical Merchandis­ ing.' uSarrey Woe Watern Much local interest has been aroused by the fact that the under­ ground stream known as the “Surrey Woe Water” lias recently been flow­ ing fairly rapidly along the Cater- ham valley, an occurrence which, ac­ cording to ancient tradition, presages some world-shaking event The stream is supposed to appear above ground every seven years, and the recent ris­ ing was rather later than usual. It is thought that heavy rainfalls assisted to bring about the flow, as the hills round about are full of water.

CHAPTER X—Continued — 17— Claude Dabbs looked at her, saw (that she was leaving It to him, and though he had planned this meeting u hundred times, did not know which beginning to make. He could think of nothing but how blind he had been. “Good God! Why didn’t I see it the first time?" he thought to himself. “She’s so like my mother.” He turned to the girl, and said: “Mary, will your mother be in when we get to your hotel?” “I think so.” “Then do you think you could come to my hotel, and talk to me for a few minutes. I’ve got a sitting room. We could be quite private." Now Mary knew she was in for it, but she loved the nice, simple way he was • taking it. Absolutely direct. What was Mother running away from? “If I don’t stay too long,” she an­ swered. “Mother will be anxious, if I am not back In half an hour.” “Then we’ll do it.” He spoke to the driver. They said nothing more, except to remark on the weather. At the desk, when he received his key, Mary noticed that, as she stood a little apart, Dabbs was evidently tell­ ing the clerk she was his daughter. ,She knew at once that this was his careful thought for her, and did not mind in the least the manner of his doing it. Indeed, it was a good manner. As they went up in the elevator, Claude had a sudden dread that Ned might come back and find them,-and he did not want that. ' Plenty of time for Ned, when he, Claude, found out where they stood. He opened the door of the sitting room and ushered Mary In. She had time to think, swiftly and confusedly, that this was doing it rather well for a country grocer. He seemed unable to speak. She felt a like disability lie upon her own tongue. She sat down and waited. Claude crossed to the door and closed it. Mary , instinctively felt the Struggle and difficulty going on in his mind. He did no’t yet know how much she knew or did not know. She felt sorry for him, and quite involuntarily tried to help. “Father—" C. M. Dabbs shot out a strong arm. Mary was lifted out of the chair and held firmly. She heard a voice above her hat, imploring: “Say that again, my girl, and say It slow.” “What?” asked the startled Mary, rather faintly. There was not much space to speak in. “What you called me then. Oh, my God, girl, do you know that it’s true?” Mary drew back and looked up at him.“Heavens I” she gasped. “Did I shy It out loud? I was afraid I would.” “Say it!” commanded C, M., and shook her a, little. “Don’t Dad, you frighten me.” She was engulfed In C. M.’s embrace. He held her closely and she found it not in the least alarming or uncom­ fortable. He was murmuring to himself: “My little girl I My Mary!" Then he held her off, as she had him, and looked at her. Mary looked into a pair of blue eyes marvelously like her own. There Was a softness of ,tears behind them, but none fell. “Don’t be frightened. Tour father doesn’t mean to be rough. Only— My God! AU the years I’ve wanted you. I’ll never forgive Polly for that” Mary raised her head warningly. “Not a word against Mother!" C. M.’s grasp upon her tightened again. “Not a word. Only she should have told me, long ago.”“Yes, I think so, too,. Dad,” Mary ■greed, “but I canit make her see it.” C. M. looked down at her sternly. “How long have you known?” “Since last night I haven’t been able to think about anything else, but Mother won't talk about it, and she meant me not to tell, . I didn't tell, did I?" “Not strictly speaking,” C. M. as- gured her. “You Just said ‘Father,” ■11 to yourself, and I heard you.” “Dear, dear,” and Mary tried to sound distressed and repentant, “what Will become of me when Mother knows?"C. M/s arm tightened about her, as though for protection. Mary leaned •r it.'iThe thing that’s got. to be under­ stood between us at once, is that my another is the sweetest,, best-looking, toOst wonderful toother a girl ever had. Father, what were you thinking gfeout to let her get away from' you?” Claude frowned. He led Mary back _______________WVjyyas to her chair and sat down beside her. “See here,” he said, looking at his daughter in alarm, “I don’t know how much Polly has told you.” “Everything.” “Everything!” C. M. started from his cbalr, changed his mind and sat down heavily. “Then that saves me something. We’re not going to dis­cuss it.” Mary nodded. “Let’s take every­ thing for granted, and go right on from now. That will be the best thing.” “How can we?” , “We must,” Mary announced with decision. “There’s got to be certain reticences." “Oh, Lord!” groaned Claude. “You don’t think I want to talk over these ‘certain reticences’ with you.” He breathed heavily. “No, it’s Polly.” He looked at Mary as though they had been in league for years. “How can we get round-her?" Mary shook her head. Claude looked at her moodily. “I know Polly.” He looked down at the carpet, busy with his problem. Mary came to him quietly, perched herself on his knee, and put her arm about his neck. He did want petting so badly. “Mother will simply have to take notice of my father.” C. M. promptly kissed her. It was a nice kiss, on the cheek, and C. M. wasn’t clumsy about it either. Mary's I “Say That Again, My Girl, and Say It Slow.” appreciation of him rose. He had a certain deftness, this big man. He wasn't clumsy nor was he vulgar. Mother might have—but Claude inter­ rupted her train of thought. “One thing I can’t forgive is keep­ ing you from me. I can hardly keep from squeezing the life out of you, Mary. I’m so glad to have you within reach, and know you’re my girl. But the little Mary! By Jiminy! How sweet you must have been with your hair down your back, or maybe tied with a big bow of ribbon, and little strapped slippers on your cute little feet Polly cheated me out of that. Why, look, you’re a great big girt,, and I’m a strange man to you, and you may be engaged to sbme hulking fel­ low, for all I know, and no room in your life for a father.” Despite the fact that he tried to treat it lightly, Mary felt the poignant regret In his tone,*and her heart ached for her father. What could she do to make him know that he had not oifly a plaee !a her life but her heart ‘Tm not engaged," she assured him, as' she put up her hands to her -smart Uttie hat'and jerked it off, and dipped from his knee. ‘!Maybe no one will ever ask me.” Claude made a little- noise of scornful unbelief, but Mary stopped him. “Stare hard at th»t picture and don’t look around ustit I tell you.” Dabbs obeyed her, wondering a Uttle, and Mary slipped tbs hairpins from her head. "Now!" C. M. felt something soft and silky touching his hand. He looked at Mary. Her hair down her back as a child would wear it, she was standing beside him, -smfling fearlessly. Th* years ‘'seemed to have slipped away from her. “There, poor old DaA Pretend I’m little Mary.” '. Dabbs laid his big hand caressingly on the silky, head, but shook his own. “You’re a dear, Mary, but put it up, my girl. It isn’t the same thing. Not bat what I’d be content enough if I could have you running in and out oi my house now, but there's Polly. PU have to take you back to her, and then what?” Mary could not answer him. She went to the mirror over the little writ­ ing desk and • began piling up her hair. “Shall I tell her I’ve seen you?” she asked. Dabbs watched her, fascinated. It was wonderful to think that slender lovely thing was his daughter. “Would that be a good thing, do you think?" Mary thought for a moment, then shook her head. As she slowly put a shell pin In, she had made up her mind' to tell him about Mother. It was the best thing,'to. be absolutely frank. She couldn't juggle things the way Mother did: “You’d better know about Mother,” she announced.. “We’re sailing for Venice tomorrow.” “Tomorrow! Venice!” Mary nodded as she drove home the last two pins and reached for her hat. “Mother's running away. We’re run­ ning away from you, and my instinct tells me Mother will run far.” Dabbs sat down on the arm of the chair, thinking. "And if I tell her Tve seen you— why, she’ll move again, and it won’t be Venice, and I won’t be able to tell you where we are going." “You’re not to tell her," Dabbs said, decidedly, “and it will be Venice. Do you know your hotel?” “The Boyal DanielU." "Well, say nothing. I’ll meet you there.” “You’ll meet us! Oh1 Father! Can you leave the grocery store?” Dabbs nodded, smiling. “Easy I can, when It’s you.” Mary settled-her hat with a slightly saucy tilt. “Then you’ll tell Mother there. My! It’s romantic!” Dearly would she love to see the meeting. C. M. crossed the room, took her by the dimpled chin and tilted her face so that he could look into the eyes that she tried to hide with her long lashes. “It Isn’t romantic,” he said. “And - much as it would please you to man­ age the affair, young lady, you can’t Polly Johnston and I will manage that part of it by ourselves.” “Oh Father, how could you?” “I’m not so slow as-I look, daugh­ ter, and I know Polly. She was never to be driven, or coaxed either. Polly will have to settle it herself, and that’s the only safe way.” Mary gave his arm a squeeze. "Oh, C. M. Dabbs, you’re a wonder. If the angeis had asked me, I couldn’t have picked any father I’d like better.” Claude looked at her gravely. “I’m rough, in some ways, girl, but if you like me I haven’t wasted my life." “I only wish I was a boy, Father. How we would develop your grocery business together, and make money so that Mother would admire us!” Dabbs frowned. “I don’t want you a boy. The angels suited me, too, when they picked you.” He held Mary’s hand tightly In his. “Mary, is Polly like that still? Does she care as much about money, I mean?” Mary studied her father as she an­ swered: “She does and she doesn’t Mother isn’t easy to explain. She likes the things money brings with It —and she hasn’t much left.” Dabbs started. “How’s that?” Mary explained as much as she knew, and Dabbs frowned as she men­ tioned the borrowing trom Loren Bangeley. “Mary,.shall we give her money?” Mary 'shook her head. /‘Not now. It wouldn’t be qnite safe. Mother would use it to run further away from—ife.” (TO BE CONTINUED.)

It is not always the best way. It was not the way Nehemiah held himself true to his principles.There was’a time of danger, and the leading men of Jerusalem were hold­ ing terrified counsel behind closed doors. “Let us meet together In the house of God, and let us shut the doors of the temple,” they counseled. But Nehemlah woald not heed their warn­ ing,'though he was.the man whom, danger threatened most. "Should such a man as I flee?” he demanded. “And who is there that, being as I am, would go Into the temple to save his life?

The first task of Solomon after .his coronation was the building of the temple, a privilege which was denied to'his father, David. ' In his prepara-, tion for this task he secured‘wood from Eing Hiram of Tyre, stones for the foundations from the Phoenicians, skilled workmen also from King Hiram. It was located -on Mount Moriah (H Chron. 3:1). The suitable­ ness of this place was due to the fact that the Lord had appeared here to Abraham. Hs dimensions were 90 feet long, 30 feet wide, and 45 feet high. It contained the brazen altar, the laver, the golden candlesticks and cherubim. The dedication of the tem­ ple was arranged to take place at an auspicious time. The dedicatory serv­ ices consisted of: I. Bringing Up the Ark (vv. 1-11). The ark of the covenant was typical of Jesus Christ God dwells among men through Jesus Christ (John 1:14). The ark was God’s holy dwelling place. This, therefore, must be brought up first and placed in the temple. For the manifestation of the divine pres­ ence was the real dedication. When the house of God was to be dedicated the king arranged for a representative gathering of the people, consisting of the elders, princes and heads of the tribes. There were many great men present, but only the priests, God’3 appointed ministers, moved the ark. The fatal experience of Uzzqh Ut David’s time was doubtless dear in their minds. Solomon profited by the blunder of his father. Connected with this service was a very great sacrifice, one in keeping with the occasion. The ark with the two tablets of stone un­ der the mercy seat shows God mani­ festing Himself to His people on the ground of a law perfectly kept and since atoned for by the shedding of blood. At the completion of the sac­ rifice, the temple was filled with the glory of the Lord. II. Solomon’s Address to the People (vv. 12-21). He points out to the people that God had chosen David to be king, yet for certain ^reasons He would not allow him to build the temple, promising that his son should do the work. Now. that the work was done, the temple was built and the ark of the covenant was in its place, they could be as­ sured that God had raised him up in the room of his father. III. Solomon’s Dedicatory Prayer (vv. 22-53). The ark having now been placed in the most holy place, and the address to the people being ended, the king pours out his soul to God in prayer. In this prayer Solomon gratefully ac­ knowledges God’s goodness in the past,-giving glory to Him, and pleads tfiat BUs promise to his father be veri­ fied (vv. 22-26); he prays that God’s eyes might be continually open toward the temple which He had now taken possession of (vv. 27-33); so that (I) in case of contention between parties He would judge between them (vv. 31, 32); (2) In case of being smitten by the enemy, even though they had sinned, upon confession of the same, God would forgive and restore (vv, 33, 34); (3) in case of famine as chas­ tisement for sin, upon confession and prayer before the temple, God would forgive and send, rain (vv. 35, 36); (4) In case of pestilence and sickness, if they pray to God towari the tem­ ple, God should hear and forgive (vv. 37-40); (5) in case of the coming of the foreigner who comes at Uie news of God’s greatness, and prays toward Jerusalem, his prayers should be heokd (w. 41-43); (6) In case of go­ ing out to battle, their cause should be maintained (w. 44, 45); (7) In case of being In captivity because of sin, God should hear their prayers and restore (w. 46-53). IV. Solomon-Blesses the People (w. 54-61). On the strength of the covenant promises, he invokes His presence al­ ways with them to keep them faithful, and exhorts the people to have their hearts perfect before God, walking In His commandments and statutes. V. Solomon and the People Offer Saeriffees of Thanksgiving (vv. 62-66).

The tendency to­ ward greater elegance is evidenced throughout the new showings. This elaboration of the mode extends to daytime as well as evening theme. The impressive note in every collec­ tion of advance styles is the opulence of the fabrics employed in their mak­ ing. Such velvets! So sheer one can •‘draw them through a ring,” so in­ describably lustrous, so colorful—the colored velvet skirt, bronzed wine color will also characterize the metal fabric blouse. Tet but-a few days and the fa­ miliar “Oh dear, there goes the achool bell” refrain will be ringing through the house. To mother the “call to arms” is also sounded, whicb means a rush to the jewing room, to make up school clothes fast as ma­ chine wheel will whirr. It Is at this time that mothers find gingham their best friend. For school I * niHf--*"**** '* *4* -ACCENTS TREND TO ELEGANCE new cliestnnt and leaf browns are es­ pecially effective. Competing with these alluring vel­ vets are sumptuous metal weaves of every sort. The glint and glitter of gold and silver pervades the entire fabric realm from sports woolens and knitted to silks and satins and velvet. Skirts made of supple metal cloth, which has been finely plaited, are among autumn’s thrilling new modes. They are for daytime wear, too— bridge parties, afternoon teas and such. This gorgeous item is shown in the. picture posed by dainty Mary Pliilbin, who won her chance and made good in Hollywood in a beauty contest some very few years ago. Posed over this skirt is a blouse of black crepe with rows of metal braid as shown. This CQStume is typical of the new modes for formal daytime wear. Other fetching styles include trans­ parent velvets with an applique of gold motifs. Sometimes the lustrous velvet or satin (satin is as prominent as vel­ vet) dresses Iiave no trimming save a metal girdle or belt lavish in detail the child needs a fabric that will sffmd frequent tubbings. The beauty of gingham is that it always emerges without losing its original fresh crisp- ness, and best of all it “wears like iron.” A child may outgrow a gown of gingham but seldom does she out­ wear it In making up gingham the material should always be shrunk. It may be put through water and dried in the sun without injury to color or fabric. It adds so to the prestige of ging­ ham this season, the fact that it comes in such lovely one-tone effects as well as in the staple checks and plaids. The little girl in the pinture is wear­ ing a plain one-tone gingham In a soft leaf green shade trimmed with darker green and white. The frock is charm­ ingly smocked in green mercerized thread to match- the darker tone.

Washington.—Architecture is anoth­ er profession .tliat is being, influenced by the great development of aviation. This is exemplified by Uie design pre­ pared by Frank E. Mclfillan, superin­ tendent of the division of post office quarters and engineering, for the pro­ posed new Chicago post office, which contemplates a great flat roof, 320 feet wide and SOO feet long. The evolution of architectural styles, like all natural evolution, is a slow process following the improved needs- of growing intelligence., In America architecture is less .than three hundred years old. In this pe­ riod it has progressed from the log cabin to our modern monumental buildings. It took 1,000 years to pro­ duce the Egyptian temple, 500 years to build the Greek temples and 300 years to erect imperial Rome. And never were the demands and require­ ments as many as today. In mate­ rials, in structure and in purpose, the task of the architect is increasingly gigantic. And now the architect’s purpose is to be changed if not domi­ nated by our getting into the air. Not just for the lauding spaces are modern cities concerned. An ar­ tistic view from the air is demanded. German architects are studying this matter with the intention of recom­ mending improvements in the aspect from the bird’s eye. Therefore we may expect roof gar­ dens. Also we may not be surprised to see some of the billboards that line the automobile trails go up and lie down on top of the business houses. Atlanta tells the flying world that it is “Atlanta” by spelling it out on top of one of the highest buildings. Our future cities will present an en­ tirely different skyline, experts say. Such Gothic buildings as the Wool- worth skyscraper land those of Chi­ cago university with points and spikes and towers discouraging to aviators probably will disappear. Lieut. Bernt Balchen, who piloted the giant “America” through hours of storm and fog over France looking for a place to come down, said in answer to those who were surprised that he-could-not see the Eiffel tower: "No,'I djd not want to see i t I was mighty glad that I did not see it.” Indians Enjoyed RoUing , Bones, Relics Indicate Oklahoma City, Okla1-Historians may not chronicle, the fact that the American Indians of old rolled dice, gambled, and used rouge and -powder, but the large Indian collection of Ed­ ward Snow, local collector, bears wit­ ness that they did. Snow has one of the largest Indian tollections in the city, particularly in regard to stone relics, some rare, aged, and of historical significance. Among the thousand or more items in his collection are Indian gambling stones used in the manner almost iden­ tical to dice. - Snow also exhibits stones, thin and round, which speculation would have as Indian poker chips. On this order there are also larger stones, apparent­ ly used for lagging for a line, much in the manner oif “pitching pennies,” or as target for _spears. ■5 Snow’s oldest relics date back four centuries. The exhibit as it now is was collected from states. It includes arrowheads, hatchets, spears,, knives, scrapes, hoes, grain mortars, and bits of pottery. The collection also harbors a Mexi­ can spearhead dug from the walls of the Alamo after its fall, as well as a number of guns from past conflicts. Falls 19,000 Feet Before Parachute Opens; Lives Paris.—Dropping 19,000 feet from a falling ,airplane and yet living to tell the tale was the experience of a French pilot, Emile Van Laere. An airplane which lie was testing near Beaumont sur Oise in the forest of Carnelle, began to fall from a height of 7,000 meters, it is said. The para­ chute did; not. open until he was a thousand feet from the ground. Al­ though somewhat stunned from his descent. Van Laere was uninjured.

L o n d o n —PhantonKmemorles of. the days of George Washington and the establishment of this natiop are re­ vived by the relic of the early days of the United States ’of America in an old bureau drawer by Mrs. Bettie Wilson Neville of this city. The relic is an old book, said tp be one of the only two copies In exist­ ence, the other being guarded jealously at the United States military academy at West Point.It is tbe first drill book of the .Unit- ed States army, prepared by Baron Von Steuben, friend and aid to Gen. George Washington at Valley Forge, and it bears the publication date of 1794 and is entitled: “Regulations for the Order and Dis­ cipline of the Troops of the United States, to which is added an appendix, containing the United States Militia Act, passed by congress May, 1702. A new edition illustrated by eight copper plates accurately engraved. By Baron Von Steuben, late major general and inspector general of the army ot the United States, No. 4G Newbury street, Boston, MDCCXCIV.” Offered $1,000 for Find. Mrs. Neville says Henry Ford has offered her $1,000 for the book, but she intends to keep it, together with other old books which she treasures. Quotations from the book which fol­ low are particularly interesting to mil­ itary men today, especially those who served in the recent World war. “The arms and accoutrements of the officers, noncommissioned officers and soldiers -should be uniform throughout. “A company is to be formed in two ranks at one pace distance, with the tallest men in “the rear, with the shortest men in the center. “A company thus drawn up is to be divided into two sections or pla­ toons, the captain to take post on the right, covered by a sergeant.” and so on through all the minute details of the army regulations. Covers of Wood. Rookies were treated to a real, man- size code of drilling, some of the regu­ lations being: ' ( “The position of a soldier without arms—He is to stand straight and firm upon his legs, with the head turned to the right so far as to bring the left eye over the waistcoat but­ tons, the heels two inches apart, the toes turned out, the belly drawn in a little,” etc. "Attention—at this word the sol­ dier must be silent, stand firm and steady, moving neither hand nor foot.” and so on for ninety-one pages, closing with the order to the private to “al­ ways carry a stopper for the muzzle of the gun in case of rain.” Tlie covers of the old book of Mrs. Neville are made of wood, covered with paper. Oklahoma. Land Office Retires From Business ■ Gutln-ie, Okla.—Tlie latest land­ mark to disappear in the frontier in the West, and in Oklahoma in par­ ticular, is the United States land office at Guthrie which was closed and dis­ continued by executive order recently. “Lack of business” was the reason given for tlie discontinuance of the office. Al records and what little busi­ ness remained will be taken to Wash­ ington and placed in the offices of the Department of the Interior. The Guthrie land office saw its first business at noon of April 22, 1SS9, when the famous “run of 'S3” was made into Oklahoma Territory. It was the only building for miles. Govern­ ment agents were' on duty ready S> register claims and issue deeds and titles. From that day forward the little office literally did a “land office” busi­ ness, the city of Gutlirie growing up around the little shack. The little shack has long since gone, but Lite office was housed in the federal build­ ing at Guthrie. What to Do With Old Safety Razor Blades Boston.—F,. SI. Durkee of Brook­ line has solved one of the world's great problems: What to do with old safety razor blades. Seven years ago illness left him too weak to push a lawn. mower and the green grass grew all around. So he mounted the motor of an old cleaner on a flat axle connecting a couple of toy cart wheels. Through holes he bored in the axle he ran shafts abouf 4 inches long and % of an inch in diameter. At the tops; of these shafts lie put pulleys and connected them by a sewing machine belt to the shaft of the motor. On the bottom of the shafts he fastened ijiin brass discs about 4 inches in diameter and finally bolted the razor blades to the ends of these discs. A long lamp cofd conyeyed ,power from a plug in. the house to the handle of the mower and thence to the mo­ tor. The machine was light. Durkee could push it- easily while the power whirled the cutting discs and the green grass flew all around. Flies Change Styles Bridgend, England.— plague, of horseflies has ,changed styles here.

New York.—The shadowy ghosts of pictures that a painter starts to bring to life on canvas and then impatiently paints out and covers over with a new and better design can be brought out of their state of invisibility and made to testify to the authorship of the paintings, new X-ray tests of famous paintings indicate. X-ray films of two famous paint­ ings, “Mars and Venus” by Veronese, and Madonna and Child” with the in­ fant St. John by Antonella da Mes­ sina, ,have been completed by Alan Burroughs, working'under the aus­ pices of the Fogg museum at Cam­ bridge. Results of the tests reported to the Bulletin of the Metropolitan Museum of Art show that the artist’s preliminary experiments with his can­ vas reveal important information to the art critic, particularly in showing whether the picture is an original or a copy. “When an artist evolves a master­ piece, he has to correct as he pro­ ceeds, if he has not already trained himself to perfection’s high point,” Mr. Burroughs states. “And the most skillful painters often change their minds. But a copyist or Imitator is insensitive to the reasons for such al­ terations, remaining content, to per­ form his task mechanically. Changes in underpaint are thus an indication of originality when the hidden work agrees in style with that on .the sur­ face.” In the case of the Madonna paint­ ing, lie says, the face of tbe Virgin “was originally tilted slightly more to her left. Two nostrils on the same side of .the nose, two pairs of lips, and two lines for the chin enable one to trace the first version fairly accu­ rately.” The experimental painting hidden under the surface paint of “Mars and Venus” showed that the artist had originally depicted the god and god­ dess in a realistic love scene. This, however, was too emotional a pose for tlie calm immortals, and he al­ tered the spirit of the picture by rais­ ing Venus’ head and shifting her weight away from Mars and chang­ ing her expression to one of smiling unconcern. There is no question that Veronese painted the “Mars and Venus.” The X- ray,study was made, Mr. Burroughs explains, because of the fact tiiat there is a replica of the painting, and the. question might be raised as to which was the original. The test set­ tles the question of priority, he states, since no copyist would have reason to experiment so extensively with the composition of the picture. Students Slide Into Series of Explorations Vancouver, B. C.—From a 200-foot slide through the murk and slime of a coal seam opening some SOO feet be­ low the level of. the ground, to a 1,- 200-foot slide down the side of one of the most beautiful glaciers Tb Amer­ ica, is but one of the experiences which the students from Princetoa university who accompanied the sum­ mer school of geology on its trip to Jasper National park, ■ are talking about. Deep within the bowels of the earth the party near Brule, Alb., and with­ in the confines of Jasper park, were examining the geological formations. A point was reached where it became necessary to go to a lower level. No way was available save sliding down a chute for coal in the time-honored fashion of kids on a cellar door. This, wiis done and the party emerged on the lower level looking more like actual miners than college men. Within the next twenty-four hours they had climbed up the shimmering glacier of Mount Edith Cayell to a height of 3,000 feet; Ice picks were used and almost every step had to be cut in the precipitous side wall. It was tlie first experience of the stu­ dents at this type of'Alpine work, hut under the direction of Prof. Leon Collet of Switzerland, a member of the Swiss Alpine club, the party made the ascent to view some of the forma-;, tions. Returning by. way of a \odg and inviting snow field and using nothing but reinforced trouser seats as sleighs, the party glissaded down a distance of 1,200 feet to land in snow beds.

(Prepared by tho United States Depart­ment of Agriculture.)Prices of farm eggs as well as of live and dressed poultry are usually highest during fall and the early win­ ter months. Profits from the farm flock can be materially increased by taking advantage of this market situa­ tion in handling the flock, says the United States Department of Agricul­ ture. Timing production to the mar­ ket demand can be accomplished best by hatching early and by having early maturing strains. Revenue From Eggs. Most of the revenue from the farm flock is obtained from eggs. It Is Im­ portant, therefore, to develop the flock from good laying strains. This re­ quires careful selection of hens that mature early, that lay best after they begin, that seldom go broody, and that lay well throughout the late summer and fall. The size of the flock is an impor­ tant factor to consider also. Main­ taining about 200 or 400 birds enables • the flock to be divided to advantage for breeding purposes. A flock of 200, for instance, can readily be divided into two units, 50 yearlings and 150 pullets; and a flock of 400 into 100 yearlings and two units of 150 pullets each. The pullets are used primarily for egg production and the yearlings for breeding purposes. Vearlings are preferable to pullets as breeders be­ cause usually they lay larger eggs, which Iiateli into bigger chicks. More­ over, the yearling hens have gone through a molt the preceding fall, and thus have had a rest prior to the breeding season, and for that reason they usually produce stronger chicks than pullets. A still more Important reason for using yearlings as breed­ ers is that they should be only the best birds of the pullet flock of the preceding laying year, and the con­ tinuous selection from year to year should assist greatly in improving the quality of the pullets raised each year. Farmers should give more at­ tention to the selection of their breed­ ing stock every year and flock units of about 200 or 400 birds will enable them to do this to advantage. Hatch Pullets Early. Since pullets normally do not begtn laying until they are at least seven months old, it is important that they be hatched early enough to permit laying during the season of high prices—from October to February. These and other points of interest to the farm flock owner are discussed In Farmers’ Bulletin 1524-F, now ready for distribution. Copies may be ob­ tained, as long as the supply lasts, by application to the United Slates De­ partment of Agriculture, AVashlngton, D. 0. Foundation Stock M ost Im portant Turkey Item In deciding on the breed of turkeys one will encounter the same kind of problem as deciding on a breed of chickens, or other live stock, except that with turkeys there are fewer breeds, so the task should be an easier one. AVhatever breed you decide up­ on, select birds as near standard, or even larger If possible, providing, of course, you do not forget type. Length of shank and thigh, if out of propor­ tion, should not be mistaken for size. ' Good length with full, rounded body and breast indicates value. Size and strength of bone indicate constitution­ al vigor, which should be maintained through the selection of the best at all times. H ay for Colts A colt from six months to a year in age. slioufd have about all the hay he will clean up, preferably a good clover free from dust. If clover or alfalfa hay is not available, then timothy hay will be necessary. For grain, feed about I pound of oats to every 100 pounds of live weight of the colt. If you wish faster growth put a small allowance of linseed oilmeal with the oats. It is also advisable to allow the colt a carrot or two every day if you have tliein; it will keep him in shape. Oats to Fatten Lam bs Tliat oats equals corn for fattening, western! lambs is shown In the co­ operative tests just completed by the Agricultural Experiment station 'at Purdue. These two popular midwest grains were fed in rations containing cottonseed meal, corn silage and clover hay. Oats not only proved its value as a substitute for corn, but re­ placed over 40 per cent of the rough­ age in the ration as well. Common opinion lias indicated that oats has never equaled corn for fattening lambs. BiiIlnose in P igs Bullnose occurs in young pigs up to six months old. The snout or nose is short and wide or enlarged; the breathing is labored, with a snuffling noise, when fed or exercised; later the difficult breathing occurs all the time. There may be mucus or bloody discharge from the nose, and periodic attacks of suffocation. It is said to be due to congenital defects in short­ nosed swine, also to foreign bodies getting into the nose and to germs such as the green pus germ. Fix Farm Buildings Before Cold Comes PaificularIy W ise to Arrange H ouse for M achinery. Construction of the necessary out­ houses and sheds and repairing the barns and other buildings is a good job to occupy one’s attention before cold weather comes. The buildings usually constructed during the late fall consist of imple­ ment sheds, poultry houses and hog houses, states Prof. David S. Weaver, agricultural engineer. Where concrete foundations or floors are to be used, it is best to put these in before hard freezing weather comes, “This work Is not expensive when the labor on the farm is used,” says Professor AVeaver. “The. prospective builder should talk the matter oyer with his lumber dealer and see how little cash it takes to put up a shed in which to house the machinery. AVe find that there is a depreciation of about 15 per cent each winter in that machinery allowed to stand uncovered and exposed to the weather. Some­ times, this amount of depreciation on high-priced machinery will pay for constructing the building in which it should be housed.” Repairs are necessary, also, espe­ cially In the dairy barns. Professor AVeaver states that the less food re­ quired to maintain the body heat of the milk cow, the more she will have to use in the production of milk. Half of a day spent in repairing the stable will keep out the cold winds of winter and will bring a big return in milk and satisfaction. AU holes In the roof and walls should be closed, drainage provided and the windows made snug and tight. This does not mean, however, that all ventilation should be closed off. Plenty of fresh air without drafts blowing directly on the cow is the proper thing for producing animals. R em oving Spray R esidue From A pples and Pears A progress report has been issued by the Oregon experiment station dealing with experiments on the re­ moval of sprtly residue from fruit. This is a very pertinent question in the northwest particularly where large quantities of sprays have been applied in an effort to keep the cod­ ling moth in check. The growers seem to be faced with the options of removing the excess spray material before the fruit is marketed, to use less arsenic, or else to substitute some other spray for insect control. The following suggestions are made as a result of the preliminary work that' has been under way. The re­ moval of spray residue by wiping and brushing has not been entirely satis­ factory. No form of mechanical cleansing thus far tested has proved effective under all conditions. More or less Injury to the fruit and the spread of decay organisms may result. Experiments with solvents have shown that certain acids and bases will remove spray residues in varying degrees of effectiveness. Of the many compounds tested, none has proved to be superior to hydrochloric acid. It was found to be effective in removing not only arsenicals, but also such forms of residue as lead, copper and lime, and has not injured the fruit when properly applied. V arieties o f Currants There are a great many varieties of currants on the market. Perfection is one of the very best However, this plant does not have the strong, upright growth that many other vari­ eties have. It needs to be pruned rather severely. Otherwise the fruit clusters will not be as large and hand­ some as this variety is capable of producing. Of all the varieties of cur­ rants this one requires heavier prun­ ing than any of the rest. gO-.O-O-O-OKO^O-O-C—OK I Agricultural Items | Potato blight is a preventable dis- A man’s most productive work is done above his ears. * * * » The man who is willing to do a piece of work already has it half done.* * • It is good practice to treat timbers that are exposed to the weather with creosote to prevent decay. * * * The potato crop is as important as it is uncertain.

You'll say' you crave your letuce with mayonnaise and I’ll say I simply cannot eat it that way. 'You can tell the powers that be your story about liking coffee with cream and sugar. I’ll tell them that dilution of coffee with cream I regard as nauseating. We’ll -get a decision on our trou­ bles. Maybe they’ll rule that the world will have to eat lettuce with mayonnaise and that all coffee should be taken black. We II each have scored a point. Thus the world and evening iu it eventually will be regulated. And the only books we’ll have left to read will. be the tomes of cdicts by the censors. Won’t everything be swell then?

The mastery of the air is higher than the rest, but the best minds of the world are now ,at work on the improvement of-the air crafts and iu time a large por­ tion of the danger will be eliminat ed. Aviation would not attract so much attention unless these heroes persisted in testing its limit of strength and possibility. Automobiles were tested in this manner, but when an automobile developed trouble it stopped Air­ planes cash. Steamships were test ed in this manner, but the danger was far less. Everything that means a great step forward must pass through its period of trial and risk, but' in the end it Js usually perfected. Aviation will owe much to these heroes.—Ex. Made Rich Haul.

' If road :ahd prison sentence had been imposed for every purpose for every fine, on tt4iquor]charge on the court dockets during the past five years the boot­ legging trade would be so large Paying a fine is not going to break many bootleggers away from their tjade.

He is a just.that always wants to be sure of tlie guilt of every defendant, giving the defendant every vestige of the doubt in the case but when gmlt is certain the jurist not. only believes in melting out fitting pun- " i&ent, but in letting the general (smiinal class know that they are uoitgriing to get off “light’’ when tjjey come into his court guilty.

The careful driver on the streets keeps an eye on the parked cars for two reasous: • He is afraid -a :care-1 less pedestrainmay step out from between the cfers directly in front of his machine; or that the careless driver at the Wheel of the parked car may decide to back out without- taking: observation to see whether the way is clear. In either case the other fellow would be in fault. The pedestrain who undertakes to negotiate the street at other, than the'regular crossings has herself to blame if he gets hurt. The bur­ den to lookout is on him The careless drivers who shoves his car out into the street without regard to fault. But' it’s little satisfaction to the considerate to hurt somebody even when blameless of the hurt; aud if your car is bartered by some­ body’s carelessness, the annoyance is only inceased by the fact that it was the other fellows fault, 'and it is mitigated only in degree if you can colleot damages which is not always possible. Sometimes it seems that drivers who move Jjie? parked cars proceed as if they had: the right of way; that it is the other fellow’s business to look out. ' Anyway many of them, back out as if they ^didn’t care a whoop, if they hit. the?; other car. Keep out of my wayj they seem to say, in act if not. in-:" word. It will probably have no .effect on the hard-boilecl of this type to be told that legally they are liable for damages hi suqli cases, just as . the !driver is liabld who dashes out ,of intersecting ^^ighways intothe :^ in ;tn3i^ 'Woin? cross Streets into niaju streets where motorists havd the right .of .liyay, without so much as hesitating to see if the -way is clear.-.UXegal authorities interpreting traffic .laws so hold. Talk to people who have no" regard for the lights of others is “like pouring-water oh a duck’s back ’■’ Only- a club of some. sort makes an impression ou that kiud. But possibly there are some who do the way thfey do because they do not-think. ’Maybe sotne of these will profit if they they know that in case of damage, in such instances-^ as mentioned they would have the law against them. — Statesville Daily.

If the moral ■ forces of this country ever made the ’ mis­ take of relying on the politics to de­ fend .prohibition, they would be de­ feated right then and there. Theffi politician—not all, but. a great many of them—will defend prohi­ bition as long as it seems safer tc defend it than-to attack it, and nbt a minute longer.

If it is all right to operate games of chance iu Mocksville on Masonic picnic day, seems like it would be all right on other days. Why the difference. The Davie Recordreceived $i~, 50 for work done for the county dur­ ing the month of August. Our Democratic friends will-please, put this dcwn in their note books. Tam Bowie didn’t get Tudge Parker’s place on the Superior court bench. Tam has been a bevo judge for some time, but when Roy Deal, of Winston-Salem, got the appointment to fill out Judge Park­ er’s unexpired term, Tauimie re­ signed bis bevo job. Well, well, who’d a thunk it. The Davie Record has never ap­ peared before the town board or asked them to protect it by passing a law putting a tax on distributing out of-town advertising sheets, shopping news, or department store circulars in Mocfcville We under­ stand that this has been done by one or more newspapers. The Re­ cord doesn’t tty to keep out com­ petition. We don’t want a fence built amund our town. Mr. T. M. Hendrix, City Clerk and a mem­ ber of the town board, will bear us out iu this statement. " Tbe Davie county fair will be held at the Masonic picnic grounds pgxt week, opening on Tuesday and closing Thursday night The Record has devoted a good deal of space and time to advertising this fair without receiving one pennv. We want the fair to be a success, and have done everything in our power to get the people interested, having gone out through the comi­ ty au't invited the farmers to bring exhib t5 here. The success of all future fairs held here will depend on this one. Let every man, wo­ man and child in Davie county be present for this occasion and suc­ cess will crown the efforts of all those who have put forth their time and money ou this fair.

Paris.—A high society drama which led to Louis Cartier, the Eue de la Pais Jeweler, challenging Baron Mau­ rice de Bothschild, a racing man and member of the chamber of deputies, to fight a duel with him has caused a tremendous sensation in Paris. In making up a list of guests for a dance that he was giving In his mag­ nificent home In the Rue Monceau re­ cently, Baron Maurice, who is a great-great-grandson of the founder of the famous financial dynasty, wrote down the name of Mme. Lonls Cartier, who is one of the great Pari­ sian beauties, but intentionally left out that of her husband. His social secretary made an error and sent the invitation to “Monsieur and Madame Louis Cartier,” who were ignorant of the baron’s real wishes. ' “What are you doing here?” Baron Maurice asked M. Cartier as soon as he saw him. “I am here because you invited me,” M. Cartier replied sharply. “You are mistaken,” the baron in­ sisted, while a number of guests stood listening to this conversation In amazement “Our Invitation was addressed to ‘Monsieur and Madafiie Cartier,’” M. Cartier declared hotly. - ' “Anyway, I don’t want you here,” the baron remarked and walked away. Flushed with anger, M. Cartier called his wife, who was dancing at the tiine, and they walked out of the house, which threw a certain chill over the party. The first thing next morning, M. Cottier sent the invita­ tion marked “Monster and Madaine” to Baron de Rothschild ,and at the same time he sent his card and two seconds, who explained that their friend wished to avenge his honor with swordsi pistols or any other weapon the baron preferred, and asked him to name his seconds. Baron de Rothschild laughed at the idea of a duel and the affair still hangs in suspense with ail the upper crust of Parisian society anxiously waiting to see what will happen. He has just left Paris to take a month’s cure.at Marienbad, however, and the jeweler can do nothing except gnash his teeth until his opponent returns. “No Leam Step on Gas,” Say Old Iiidian Braves Glacier Park, Mont—The . automo­ bile will not entirely replace ponies among the Indians until the present older generation of braves has en­ tirely passed away, according to the observation of Chief Two Guns White Calf of the Glacier National park res­ ervation. He says that while the younger Indians take speedily to fliv­ vers, their seniors never could learn automatic use of toe pressure on the gas feed, brake-and clutch, since they had been too long in the reverse habit of “digging” their heels into the eay- use’s ribs. Boston Housewife Walks About Eight Miles Daily Boston.—The average housewife walks eight miles a day in doing her day’s work, according to the sur­ vey made here by the National Foun­ dation for Foot Health. The foundation survey showed that the number of trips the woman house­ keeper makes up and down stairs dur­ ing a day would more than equal climbing to the top of the Boston cus­ tom-house tower—approximately thir­ ty stories. opocoocicjooooeoooooooopoooq California Astronomer Measures the Universe , Berkeley, Calif.—The sidereal i universe, that vast expanse be­ yond the earth which provides an ethereal setting for a billion ! stars, is estimated to have a di­ ameter of 194' quadrillion miles , by Allan Douglas Maxwell, a I James SI. Goeway fellow In as- ' trbnomy. This computation is the result bf preliminary studies conclud­ ed at the University of Califor­ nia Lick observatory on Mount I Hamilton. I Maxwell’s conclusions were \ reached in a study of the des- ' tiny of stars toward the edge I of the sidereal galaxy in which I the solar system is found. His I computation was offered as a working. supposition, which may I be altered by further observa- 1 tions. I Peering into the heavens, he I made his observations by means ' of the spectroscope in six areas in the Cygnus region of the ! milky way. The problem con- ; fronting Maxwell- was to com-. i pute the distances of the faint- [ er stars and to discover how far into space ’ the cloudl'ike mass extended.Maxwell Is believed to have reached a greater distance from the earth than his previously i' been reached In the section of the sky he Studied, with single stars as an objective. He suc- i cessfully photographed'the spec- i tra of stars approximately 96,- ' 000,000,060;000,000 nilles away. At that distance few Stars were observable, and' Maxwell be-, lieves the -sidereal universe probably ends not far. beyond: ibooewoojfco^ NOT MANY NURSES OF CML WAR STILL LIVE Only 46 of 2,000 in Union Army Survive. Washington.—Nurses who served In the Civil war, like the heroes to whom they ministered, are growing fewer as the conflict fades into history. Of 2,000 nurses who served with the Union forces government records dis­ close the names of but 40 survivors. The list is admittedly incomplete, for it includes only those drawing pen­ sions for their service. In Civil war time army records were kept less care­ fully than today. Many who served were not mentioned, or were listed only by first names which came to the attention of redord keepers through some outstanding act of mercy or heroism. Not a Profession Then. Nursing was not yet a profession In the '60s. It was the need disclosed by the war, rather, which brought about the establishment of the first schools for training nurses. A great deal of the burden had to be borne by the Catholic sisterhoods. Hurriedly trained volunteers were also recruited. Many of these had independent means, others who felt the need, of pensions in later years were unable to establish records to meet the legal requirements. Dorothea L. Dix, who served with­ out pay, headed the government nurses, under an appointment which made her superintendent of ,female nurses. Many young and eager volun­ teers were rejected by her, but they found a place in the volunteer ranks. These included Clara Harlowe Bar­ ton, who later was to organize the American Red Cross, and Amelia Bar- low. The. Confederacy acclaimed Ella K. Newsom, wealthy and beautiful widow who spent a fortune in her work, as “Dixie’s Florence Nightingale." The thinning ranks include some like Mrs. Wade McClellan, whose name does not appear in the pension records. She bore her first child at Gettysburg, Pa., during the battle there. A month later she entered the service of the Union as a nurse on the battlefields. Later she went to Emery hospital at Washington to serve. Now, at eighty-six, she lives in Carroll, Iowa, where she is active in the Woman’s Relief corps. Cornelia Hancock Best Known. Of those on the pension roll prob­ ably the most widely known, judging from available records, is Cornelia Hancock, now at -Atlantic City. She was trained at Philadelphia and min­ istered to the wounded at the front during the long campaign of the Array of the Potomac in 1S64-65. Some others on the roll and the states in which they reside include: Rlinois—Clarissa Crossman, Julia McCarthy, Irene D. Cook of Chicago; Addie Emery of Pontiac, Eliza Pyle of Norris City, Kate McLaughlin of Quincy, Mary C. Upton of Vera. Indiana—Mary Brady of Indianapo­ lis, Sister M. de Sales and Sister M.

Friends Redeem Goods of Bankrupt- Farmer Cedar Rapids, Iowa.—A friend in need is a friend indeed. Peter Gulbrason, farmer, of Hum­ boldt,. had a demonstration of the truth of the adage recently. • Mr.' Gulbrason had not prospered. There was a mortgage on everything he owned on his little farm and the sheriff had advertised a sale to sat­ isfy creditors. Friends of Mr. Gul­ brason heard of his predicament, and the day of the sale, they assembled on his farm apd bought in his farm goods, paid off tile mortgage and presented the paper to him, He burned it In their presence and a happy group told Mr. Gulbrason to start life anew with their best wishes. Spurned Parents’ Plan, Now “Big Business” Girl Charlotte, S. C.—Nancy Alexander spurned her parents’ plan for her fu­ ture when she decided to leave college and launch her craft into the stormy waters of business. She started out as a stenographer two years ago, Today, at the age of twenty-one, she is in charge of a large northwestern lumber company branch here, with control of the business in North Caro­ lina, South Carolina, Georgia, Flori­ da, and Alabama.Not only is she a full-fledged busi­ ness women but she is an exponent of the idea a business office need not be in an office building. She has moved the company’s office to her residence. Not a Good Mixer Stroudsburg, Pa.—The champion nonmixer is William Lacey.

TO C RO W N H IRO H ITO ON ECONOM Y BA SIS Japan Will Keep Cost of the Ceremony Low. Tokyo.—Preparations . are under way for the great ceremonies to be held in Kyoto in November of 1928, when Hiro'nlto, the young successor of the late. Emperor Taisho, will be for­ mally crowned as the rnler of Japan. Committees are being appointed to take charge of the event and account­ ants are figuring out a coronation budget of several million yen which will be presented to the diet that con­ venes next spring. Unlike the coronation ceremonies for Emperor Taisho, no special foreign envoys will come to Japan for the Hirohito accession. The Japanese government has requested the various nations not to send extraordinary rep­ resentatives, as in the past, and It is expected that the ambassadors and ministers stationed in Tokyo will be delegated to attend in the extraordi­ nary capacity. The request that special representa­ tives be dispensed with is said have been due to Japan’s wish to econo­ mize. The officials in charge intend to ex­ ert every effort to simplify the cere­ monies in order that the least pos­ sible cost piay be incurred. But even with the utmost economy it is feared that the Hirohito coronation expenses will be greater than those of the Em­ peror Taisho, which were approxi­ mately 10,000,000 yen, because general costs have increased. A number of special carriages are to be built and blooded horses im­ ported for the occasion. Tlie music to be played during- the various cere­ monies is to be especially composed by both Japanese and European musi­ cians. The music to be played at the grand banquet-following the coronation will be purely Japanese, the orchestra using flutes, harps, drums, gongs and other native instruments. At a subse­ quent banquet to be held later in the evening, the army and navy bands will play Western music exclusively. Lift Ban on Yank Wives Seeking to Enter Cuba Havana. — Regulations preventing women from visiting Cuba without permission of their husbands have been modified by President Machado, so far as Americans are concerned. A stir was created when Dr. San­ tiago Canizares, commissioner of im migration, announced that under the terms of the original decree, women who did not have proper papers from their husbands would not be permit­ ted to enter the country. The decree was aimed at nndesir able; foreign women. It had nevet been used against an American until it was invoked against Mrs. Anna Joy. As a consequence transport agents and a tourist commission drew or­ ders from the secretary of the treas ury that discretion be used in invok­ ing the decree. President Machado 'guaranteed American citizens everj facility within reason for landing hera Child Pronounced Dead Awakens at Her Funeral San Vicente, Argentina.—After be­ ing pronounced dead by a local phy­ sician, Vicenta Corozot, five, came to life three days later, the death cer­ tificate-having already been issued. Her eyes opened and she began to cry from the coffin around which a crowd of sympathetic friends and re­ lations had assembled to assist in the funeral. At the time she was pronounced dead, her distraught, parents were not convinced • but gave in after being sternly lectured by the officiating phy­ sician for doubting his professional word. Forecasting Earthquakes Leningrad—One liundred seismo logical stations are being built throughout the soviet union by the Academy of Science, which is under­ taking to forecast earthquakes before they occur, in the hope of saving life and property. Professor Nibiforoff1 a distinguished earthquake expert, is in charge of the work.

These are basic facts: I Your present car bas-only one fundamental basis of value; i. e./what the dealer who accepts it in trade can get for it in.the used car market. 2 Yojiir present car has seemingly different values because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new car. 3 The largest allowance offered is not necessarily the best deal for you. Sometimes it is; some­ times it is not. ■ ' / , 4 Au excessive allowance may mean that you are paying an excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. , 5 First judge the merits of the new car in com­ parison with its price, including all delivery and finance charges. Then weigh any difference in allowance offered on your present car. Remember that when you trade-in your pres­ ent car you are after all making a purchase, not a sale. You are simply applying your present car as a credit toward the purchase price of a new car. GENERAL M O T O R S "A car for every Purse and purpose ” CHEVROLET , PONTIAC . OLDSMOBILE .

Health authorities in England are expressing alarm over the encaphalitis situation even though the number of cases lias been reduced from 5,000 in 1924 to 2,267 in 1020. It has been estimated that about 30 per cent of all cases die, and that 70 per ,cent of the recov­ eries show various disease manifesta­ tions ranging from mild conduct dis­ order to complete paralysis. The London county council has made ef­ forts to provide- for the treatment of partly recovered victims, but this meets the needs of only a compara­ tively small group. It has been point­ ed out to the home secretary that there is need of providing an institu­ tion where children can receive spe­ cial treatment, for its after effects are recognized as a contributing cause of delinquency. Active need of scientific research to combat this scourge is urged. Whqn AanfiVs Ears Burned London Hostess—I See they are bringing in a bill to" prevent antiques from leaving the country.

That superstition Is still strong Iq' some parts of Nonvay is plainly shown by a report from a govern* mental official who visited Lofoten In northern Norway. In a desolate place, where lie took a rest, he found the body .of a dog nailed to a birch tree and hanging with head downward. A closer investigation of this uncanny find revealed a piece of wood nailed to'the tree under the dog and bearing the inscription: “I give you, oh my faithful dog, to death. Kneeling anil in sorrow, I kill you and nail you to this tree with incantation that all wild beasts shall lose their tee’.;; and leave my cows and reindeers . In peace.” In all probability, one of the Lapps has here besought the spirits, and fol­ lowed the tradition of thousands, of years ago when favorite animals were sacrificed to gain the favor of t&* Great Spirit of Nature. H Guard British Food Route 1 Imperialism has increased . insect pests by cleaning jungles and plant­ ing crops, thus upsetting natures equilibrium. One-fifth of man s trop­ ical harvests, are eaten by insects, and as lialf the British empire is in the tropics, and Dominion farms are in the front line of attack, Britain has established an emergency bureau to discover parasites that can do more than cruisers to keep the food route guarded.

Probably one of the best reasons for their increasing favor is the fact that1 their repertoire covers all- types of the more popular music with the natural result that they" appeal to every class of people. Paul and John can lend pep to the peppiest kind of vocal music and can switch on a mo­ ment’s notice to an old Southern mel­ ody, giving to it the pathos and heprt interest which its theme demands. ThCir abilities along this line are best evidenced by a glance at the re­ quests which come into WSB. ‘Every conceivable kind of song is requested from the old classics wliich have come down through the years to the brand- new up-to-the-minute numbers, fresh from Tin Pan Alley. And the unusual feature of this fact is that they com­ ply with practically every request, or as much so at least as time will per­ mit HOWTHE FARM POPULATION HAS DECLINED, BV SECTIONS, DUH TO ; MOVEMENT FROM FARM TO OTVUfipER FtGURCS-/92? umreft FKimes-Iffiii 1,000,000 1.014,0001 9 4 9 ,0 0 0-1.163.000 450ffjCCQ U.S.-27,892.000 U.S-31 . 6I4-.000 The number of Consumers of farm I j^oducts. in cities, towns and villages has increased each year .since 1920 i by the equivalent of the combined I population of Pittsburgh, Kansas City, i New Orleans and San Francisco,'the Sears Boebnck Agricultural. Founda-. tion points out. The ’urban popula­ tion has gaiued through the movement from farm to cities as well as through natural increase. The*.farm population on January I,. 1927, was- estimated at 27,882,000, against 31,614,269 reported , by' the census. on January I, 1920. The, de­ crease of 3,722,000 is an average of 632,000 head per year. The total pppn- lation increased from 105,710,620 in 1920 to approximately 117,900,000 "on Jannaiy X »27. ComlMni these fig1- "ures, the population of cities, towns and ~ villages has increased from 74,097,000 to 89,992,000. Thisisagain of 15,895,000 in the seven-year period. In .J926, .2,155,000 persons moved from fafffls to’ Cities, while 1,135,000 moved to farms. This would be a net movement from; farms . of 1,020,000. The' natural increase in the'farm popu­ lation due to predominance of birth over deaths was 371,000, so that the . net decline In the farm population was 649,000. The movement away from farms is one phase of the read­ justment of agriculture. While it has a distressing , side, the more cities there, are, the larger the markets for farm-products and the better the chance^of success-for those who stay on-the farm.' THE DAVIE.

"I’m trying to figure out, daughter, whether you’re right about the money. I guess yon are, though. 'As you say, Polly’d only use it to get further away from me, and that would keep us apart. Besides, it mustn't be money that brings Polly to me. It must be—you. You can see that.” “Of course. I can Mother’s point Of view, too,” Mary admitted, wishing to be absolutely fair to the absent, which is always so difficult a task when sympathies are mostly with those present. “But I somehow feel on your side, Dad, and when the pincli comes, ril warn you and we’ll act together. Then we will see what Mother does. She’s—well, surprising! Xou can never tell about Mother." She moved toward the door. Moth­ er would be waiting, and that was beginning to trouble her. “Oh, hurry after ns to Venice, Father. We’ve got so much to say to each other, and there's no time left for us today. And,” she paused to make this em­ phatic, “you must not come further than the elevator with me. If Mother saw me with you, she wouldn’t say a •word, but it would not be Venice.” “Just as you say, dear, and I sup­ pose it’s safer, but I hate it.” Claude moved to the door with her, and as they reached it he said, hesitatingly: “Mary, do you need any money? I’ve plenty.” “Generous old dear,” Mary thought, but what she said was: “Oh, I’m quite nil right, as long as Mother’s holds out. The question is, how -long can you stand the pace Mother’s setting?” Claude started to speak and stopped himself. “Oh, I can hold out for some, time,” he told her cheerfully,, “and) there’s always the grocery business.” Mary patted his arm. “Of course, and if it wasn’t for Mother,. I’d go back with you now like a shot and keep books or sell things behind the counter. Wouldn’t it be fun? It’s Mother who keeps me from doing it. Mother can’t be left alone, you see.” Qande Dabbs put his arm about his daughter. “I knew it I always knew you were all right, Mary. It won’t come to leaving Polly. We’ll try and arrange It so we can each have a share of yon—sort of share and share alike.” Mary patted his hand, but looked a little dubious. She put an arm about his neck and drew his head down and kissed him. “I may have to lie a lit­ tle for you,” she warned him, “but surely in such a good cause, I’ll be forgiven. At least I’ll chance it.” The elevator came and she was gone, and he knew that the better part of valor should keep him from watching from his windows. But all the fears and cares of a family man, which begin with the child’s birth and spread gradually and with decreasing force through the long years of the child’s growth and maturity, had sud­ denly assailed Claude Dabbs, and he wondered, fiercely, what Polly could be thinking of to allow such a girl as his Mary to go about alone. CHAPTER XI Mary marveled that she was able to conceal from her mother the ex­ citing fact that she had met and talked to her father. It seemed to her quite impossible that she could sit besidp her mother, and think about her father, and her mother suspect nothing and think—well, Mary did not quite know what Mother was think­ ing about For the first time In her life Mary realized that souls could be lonely. People could be as close as Mother and she had always been, and yet so wide apart that when one deliberately drew down the curtain, the other sat In-darkness and could know nothing of the thoughts and feelings behind the curtain! Claude’s heart and head were full of Mary. She occupied his thoughts 'to the exclusion of everything else. So absorbed was he in his own visions, that N ed, returning In triumph from a successful visit to the steamship office, for the first time in their ac­ quaintance was at odds with Claude. His indignation was roused by the news that Claude had actually had Mary there, in the hotel, and yet had said nothing at all about Ned. As though that were not enough, Claude calmly demanded that he transfer their reservation to the next ship,, sailing a few days later. ■ It had been a difficult matter for him to obtain passage on the same boat with the Johnstons and now these efforts were In vain. When the change had 'been made Ned asked: “Why didn’t you tell Miss Johnston I was In town?” “Because I forgot you, and every­ thing else, Nedv All I could think of was that Mary is my own girl anil nothing that Polly does will keep me away from Mary—when she wants me.” ,Ned’s feeling of exasperation grad­ ually gave way to the thought that in reality Claude had done him a good turn By not mentioning him to Mary, Claude had saved the explanation that he -was not Carter, but Ned Carter Ran cel ev. Moreover, there would be no needf if they traveled on different shins, for her to know it until they met. There are some explanations that should come from the lover. • B y ^ M a r g a r e t T u r n b u l l Copyright, 1925, by Margraret Turnbull* WNU Service This was one. Mary still believed him the grocer’s clerk. The next morning Ned determined that, by hook or crook, he would have speech with Mary befpre the steamer sailed. He could easily get on board, and the chances were that 'he would be able to have a word alone. He became aware that Claude was regarding him steadily across the breakfast table. “Far be it from me, Ned, to worm myself into any business of yours, but if you should be thinking of look­ ing up Mary before she sails, my ad­ vice is—Don’t!” ‘'What’s wrong with the idea, sup­ posing I entertained it?” “Everything,” said Claude, all the kindness gone from the blue eyes. “It’s a bad . idea. It would mess up my plans. If necessary. I’m pvepareO to rope and tie you, to prevent it.” He leaned across the table, his eyes growing soft again:. “Why boy, can’t you see? There’s some women you can rush, and others you’ve gotta let Ned Even Accused Claude of Being Too Popular. run a little before you throw the rope. Of course, I haven’t been so success­ ful in my own affair that I should set up for a guide, but I know about Mary. If I were you—I wouldn’t.” “Enough said,” Ned quickly agreed. “But once over the water, C. M., TH play my game without interference.” Claude’s caution prevented Ned meeting his father, Loren Eangeley bade Mrs. Johnston an impressive farewell. He carried himself so pa­ ternally toward Mary that only her fear of antagonizing her mother pre­ vented her from raging aloud against him. The same jealousy, in a different degree, prevented Mrs. Johnston from telling Mary of Ned’s message. Tho sight of his flowers, a modest bunch of violets chosen as befitting a gro­ cer’s clerk, annoyed her still further. It was not until New York harbor was well behind them that Mary was told. Something in the way her mother gave the message, with the inference that Carter was a pushing, obnoxious creature, made Mary place his flowers conspicuously in the stateroom. AU this Mrs. Johnston received in silence, and Mary, sore at heart, could not understand it. After all, they were Americans and her mother had never been a snob. What could have made her take this attitude toward a perfectly nice young man who had saved her daughter’s life? Mary de­ cided not to bfame her mother at all, but to put the blame on that detest­ able Mr. Kangeley, who had probably been quite difficult Why had her mother borrowed from him? Surely things might have been arranged with less haste. There seemed something inherently unjust to C. M. Dabbs in this wild desire to escape. Just or unjust, she could not ques­ tion her mother. Mrs. Johnston’s face was set and worried, and though it changed a moment after to smiles and graciousness, as an old acquaint­ ance greeted her, Mary remembered that anxious look. If her mother had promised to consider that awful Rangeley, Mary would have to warn her father. Polly told Mary nothing, and Mary danced, walked, talked, played games, flirted a little, stayed in bed and read when she grew tired of everybody on board ship. Polly’s routine was much the same, save that she spent more time in bed reading feverishly and without dis­ crimination. They talked in the usual jolly, casual way at night. But cer­ tain subjects were avoided—Clover Hollow, Claude Dabbs, Ned Carter and Loren Rangeley. Just three days behind them, on the same course, Claude Dabbs and Ned Carter followed. Ned was find­ ing Claude a delightful traveling com­ panion, utterly free from the shame of ignorance, and willing to acquire knowledge of all sorts. Ned also dis­ covered that others found Claude at­ tractive, and Ned even accused Claude of being too popular. "Polishing up for Mary,” was his explanation and excuse. A ouriously congenial pair they were, finding an infinite variety of things to talk about. They seldom mentioned Mary, and Ned wanted to talk about Mary. He had reached the stage when if the beloved's name is not mentioned by some one, there is no conversation. Some one, any one, every one must speak of her to him. Claude, a charming companion in every other respect, was, on the one vital subject, dumb. Ned fumed, in secret, Rtoowing that with Claude Dabbs all half measures were useless; he would eithe* have to declare his whole purpose, or keep silent. Since he knew nothing yet of Mary’s feelings, lie kept silent He wished, heartily, that Claude and his Polly would play out their comedy by themselves and leave him a clear field with Mary. Mary in Venice! The combination would be heavenly, but not if everywhere that Mary went a mother and father, ut­ terly estranged, followed. As • their journey brought them closer to Mary, the two men com­ muned In their hearts with the totally different images they had set up of the same girl. The real and very different Mary— in that instead of only being what they thought, was all that and more— slept as tranquilly, as an Italian rail­ way carriage would permit As the time drew near when she might reasonably expect her father to appear, Mary thought of nothing else, and grew nervous lest she should be­ tray, in some unguarded speech, the thoughts that were uppermost in her mind. Polly Johnston steadily refused to disclose her plans to Mary. Polly’s nights were sleepless, her days rest­ less. It was as though she felt some approaching change and strove to evade it Several wakeful nights followed their arrival in Venice, and one morn­ ing Polly awoke 'with a headache. Though she kept up valiantly until after luncheon, she was compelled finally to seek her darkened bedroom. Mary knew that Polly could not en­ dure being read or talked to when her head was like that. So, when Mary proposed that she should spend the afternoon in St. Mark’s, just around the corner, there was no excuse Polly could justly offer to oppose the plan, though she did not like it Mary laughed down all suggestions that she was quite, too attractive to wander about alone. Mary was an American, though she had had a for­ eign bringing-up, and she reminded her mother of this, and {hat she knew how to take care of herself. Polly, who had wandered about as she chose when Mary’s age, realized she was being absurd. She tolcl Miiry to go, but not to stay late, and if she, Polly, did not feel better, she would have' her din­ ner in bed. In that case Mary might dine with the Farleys, whom they had met on the train. Mary acquiesced, somewhat absent-mindedly. Having made her mother comfortable, or at least as comfortable as a headache would allow, Mary set forth.’ Venice, that lovely city of the sea, seemed to Mary to be looking her best that afternoon. The sun shone warm on the piazza. The shops had a sleepy look, their awnings like droop­ ing eyelids, and the patches of shade were grateful to the eye. Mary thought Venice was like a lovely, se­ ductive woman, who, past her first youth, stirred men’s hearts to pity for all she had lost and then to passion for the ageless beauty which she still retained.

Soldier’s Name Well “Worth Army Corps” When the French revolution Earned out, the aristocratic La Tour d’Au- vergne, disdaining pleas of his fellow officers to leave France, threw in his lot with the revolutionists. Time sifter time he emerged from battle with his clothing torn by bullets, but unharmed, and so he gained his rep­ utation of bearing a charmed life. Stories of Iiis amazing courage reached the enemy and inspired terror. This reputation enabled him to cap­ ture San Sebastian, Spain, single- handed. He arrived in a little boat bearing a tiny cannon, disembarked, marched to the citadel, announced he Was the advance guard of the French army and demanded that the place be surrendered. The Spanish command- i ant was so intimidated that he was I willing to surrender, but asked La Tour d’Auvergne to fire one shot, Sv it could not be said he had given up without being attacked.

He saw in Jero­ boam the leader of insurrection and endeavored to kill him. Jeroboam fled to Egypt until Solomon’s death (I Kings 11:40). Having been in­ formed by the prophet Abijab that he was to have ten tribes oyer which to rule, as soon as he heard of Solo­ mon’s death he returned to be ready to take up his work. I. The Demand of the People (vv. 1-4). Tliis was occasioned by the burden of excessive taxation and enforced la­ bor, which was required by Solomon in order to build costly houses and temples for his heathen wives. The people were groaning under its weight Upon the accession of the new king Belioboam, the people, through their leader Jeroboam, came with the re­ quest that their burdens be made lighter, promising loyalty to him on the condition of lightened burdens. II. Rehoboam’s Foolish Decision (vv. 5-15.) 1. Rehoboam consulted with the old men (vv. 5-7). These were men of experience who had been Solomon's advisers. Being acquainted with the condition as imposed by Solomon, and knowing the temper of the people, they advised that the people’s request be granted. 2. Behoboam consulted the young men (vv. 8-11). These young men had grown up with him, possibly were his half-brothers, sons of Solomon’s many wives. Being thus brought up In the luxury of the harem, they were igno­ rant of the legal right of the people. Therefore they advised that the bur­ dens be increased, 3. Behoboam followed the advice of the young men (vv. 12-15). • At the appointed time he announced his pur­ pose to the people. He even answered them roughly, asserting his purpose to increase their burdens and sorrows. He assumed that it was his right, to rule and that it was the people’s role to obey regardless of conditions. III. The Revolt of the Ten Tribes (vv. 16-24). Upon Rehoboam’s announcement of his rash purpose all Israel cried out, “What portion have we in David? . . . to your tepts, O Israel.” 1. Iteboboam’s attempt to collect tribute (vv. 18, 19). As he endeav­ ored to collect tribute from the ten tribes, Adoram, his tribute gatherer, was stoned to death. So violent was the opposition on the part of the people that Behoboam had to flee to Jerusalem to save his life. 2. Jeroboam ■ made king over Is­ rael (v. 20). They seem to have lost no time in selecting a head so as to be strong in their opposition to Rehoboam. 8. Rehoboam’s attempt to compel the ten tribes to return to David (vv. 21-24). ' ' To effect this, he assembled his army of 180,000 men. Through the prophecy of Shemaiah, which forbade them to go against their brethren, they were pursuaded to return. IV. Jeroboam's Scheme to Unify the Ten Tribes (vv. 25-33). I. He . established calf worship (w, 31-33). (I) He built houses and high places (v. 31). This was against the direct command of God. God had di­ rected His people to destroy the high places and to break down the idol­ atrous centers. So we see that Jero­ boam, by*the demands of his sinful heart disobeyed God. (3) He changed the day of the Feast of the Tabernacle (v. 32). The time of this feast was set by the Lord (L'ev. 23:33, 34). Jeroboam argued that the change in' the time would' be better suited to their northern cli­ mate, but God, who made the climate, ordained the time of the feast It was his business,- therefore, to obey God. (4) Jeroboam himself intrudes into the priest’s office. The act of pre­ sumption on his part was the climax of his godless acts, all of which grew out of his wicked heart God Established Prayer God has established prayer to com­ municate to His creatures the dignity of causality.—PascaL .

SWEATER FOR THE SCHOOLGIRL; LUXURY MARKS FALL FASHIONS SCHOOL wardrobe wliicli does not include a gay sweater or two? Not good logic. Sweaters are one of those comforts of life which dare not be neglected in the planning of the schoolgirl outfit—and this holds good from kindergarten to post-graduate age.We are accustomed, all of us, to think of tlie sweater In terms of knit­ ted styling, but the slip-on in the pic­ ture is unique in that it is made with needle, net and yarn. It requires only a yard of tlie net for tlie foundation of tins little slip-on as shown, with two balls of yarn one color and three of another. It is worked in an over- and-over darning stitch, with crocheted collar, cults and hemline. Tliis model happens to be done in a simple checker design, which is very appropriate for a child, but for grown­ ups handsome and intricate tapestry tlie fasliionist as It ever was. Ele­ gance is the outstanding' character­ istic of the new' autumn types—this from both fabric and styling stand­ point. The supremacy of superb vel­ vets which are glorifying this season’s showings, a,lso that of liandsomer- than-ever satins, the favor for gold and silver embellishment, together with increasing intricacies of detail, all conspire to emphasize the luxury ' note in autumn’s ensembles. The preference for black is out­ standing, and again Paris is exploit­ ing the black-and-white theme. A black-satin coat-and-skirt costume, or velvet, which competes for favor and will win out with the coming of win­ ter, with white-Satin bodice radiant with touches of gold or silver, regis­ ters in the list of “good-looking” day­ time costumes. The coat is likely to be collared W inn CAY SWEATER IN SLIPON STYLE effects are worked out in rich color­ ings. Some ambitious women are even making full-length coats for themselves of yarn and net, weaving the whole foundation of solid tan or wine or navy, elaborating the theme with a gorgeous tapestry patterned border with collar and cuffs to match. To return to the subject of sweaters for children, otle of the services which it is theirs to perform is to make it possible for little daughter to wear her pretty left-over-from-vacation dresses of gingham and English print and the like way late into autumn. That is just what the little girl in the picture is doing—topping her wash- with white-fur, as shown in the pic ture, or else milady will wear a sep­ arate white-fox fur piece for early fall. The mode is surprisingly par­ tial toward white fur in its initial showings. Which leads to an item ol interest anent the new fashions—the fact that many of the new Alaskan and northern seal coats for this win­ ter are taking showy collars and cuffs of white fur, which makes them won­ derfully attractive and youthful look­ ing. As to the ensemble costumes ol either satin or velvet, many of them are classic in their simplicity yet of compelling appearance, because of the STRIKING ENSEMBLE COSTUME able frock of English print with a cunning needle-darned slip-on. Very popular, too, are little knitted cardigan sweater types for !children. The fact that-they button up the front makes them very practical. Being in solid cclcr, close-knit and lightweight, they prove most wearable for little ones who love to romp and playl Sometliing new in infants’ sweaters is the metal slide fastener, which in­ jures perfect protection in that the "arment is so securely held in place, yet easily unfastened at mother's will. The ensemble is as much a theme o challenge the creative genius of superb texture of their fabrics. It 1» a fact, velvets never were so exquisite­ ly lusterfnl and supple as are the new weaves. They yield to shirring as gracefully as does chiffon. Plaited- velvet skirts are the rage, topped, with handsomely styled velvet jackets or either a metal-cloth or .velvet blouse. As to satin, white black leads, leaf- brown shades are a close second. These tune in most artfully with the season’s handsome furs, which are ap pointed to lavishly trim late autumn and winter costumes, both of satin and velvet. • . JDLIA BOTTOMLEY. 1027, -Western Newspaper Unlon.> C o rn sta lk T e s t H a s B e e n T ried Practical A pplication of M ethod R eported’ by ' Purdue Specialist. The new “cornstalk” test for deter­ mining plant food requirements of the soil is receiving a great amount of at­ tention following the completion of an extensive survey in which the test was applied in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Ken­ tucky, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and other states. Announcement is made that the hundreds of tests thus made agree remarkably well with the results of field experiments in these states. Apply Certain Chemicals. The test is made during the latter part of the season by cutting open the stalk and applying certain chemicals to the tissues. Abundance or lack of nitrogen is indicated by one test, while the presence of excess iron in the joints, as shown by another chemical, indicates a deficiency of. potassium. The practical application of this method is well illustrated by the ex­ perience of R. F. Eanth of Warrick county, Indiana, as reported by Prof. 0. T, Gregory of Purdue agricultural experimetilT station. ■ Three years ago Mr. Kautli wais much discouraged with his corn crop, and had about decided that his clay soil was not fitted for corn. Yields were very low as were those of his neighbors on the same kind of land. Learning about the proposed new tests of Dr. G. N. Hoffer, at Purdue univer­ sity, he sent stalks in to be tested and received the reply that the stunted condition indicated lack of potash and the iron in the joints showed serious need of potash. Produced Better Corni In 1925 he used a 2-12-2 fertilizer and produced much better corn, but still it was not quite what he wanted. Stalks were again sent in and this time the reply was to use more potash in the fertilizer. In 1926 Bauth used two analyses, 040-10 on part of the field, and 2-12-6 on the rest of the field. The results showed that lack of potash, as well as of phosphoric acid, was causing his difficulty. He also found that his earn was free from root rot, indicating that this dis­ ease is due in large part to nutritional defects. Superior Layers M ade by Proper A ttention To insure good layers next fall, keep the young birds healthy and keep them growing, advises L. JX. Black, assist­ ant poultry specialist at the New Jer­ sey College of Agriculture. Everlast­ ing. attention to .every detail should be the rule of the range during the summer months. “The growing birds must have a constant supply of fresh water and sufficient mash hopper space must be provided,” says Mr. Black. “Mash Is responsible for maximum growth and it should be always available. If the birds will not eat sufficient mash in the houses, place some sheltered hop­ pers on the range. “Our two great disease troubles, coccidiosis and intestinal worm infec­ tions, can be controlled only through sanitation. Clean and disinfect the houses frequently. That flies are spreaders of tapeworm cannot be overlooked, and every effort should be made to discourage their presence on tlie range. Don’t allow rubbish and manure piles to accumulate, for they furnish ideal breeding places for this pest. Treat the manure piles liberally with hydrated lime. “Finally, attempt to adjust the mash and grain ration so that the pullets do not come into production too early. Aim to allow five months for the grow­ ing period of Leghorn pullets. Then, before they come into a heavy lay or when they are laying about 10 per cent on range, move them to the lay­ ing pens and endeavor to get them in prime condition by feeding scratch grain heavily. Rest assured that the care and pains thus taken will be re­ paid, and that a flock of well-grown, healthy pullets is not only a source of profit but also of deep satisfac­ tion,” There Should B e P lenty H opper Space for A ll There. should be enough hopper space to feed all tlie chfcts at one time if they want to eat at the same table. They won’t, but having the space means that the stronger chicks will not have opportunity to trample on the weaker chicks and make cow­ ards and runts of them. It is better, but not always practical to keep the chicks of different ages separate. Home-made devices for giving the baby chicks' the front row at th£ hop­ pers are varied and successful; Any system that keeps the droppings from the mash and gives the baby chicks a chance is good, keep the mash hoppers filled. Alternate feast and famine plays the mischief with chicks. F eed for F attening In Wisconsin and other northern states they oftentimes report that pound for pound ground barley is fully equal, to corn for fattening hogs. In the' com belt, however, a .pound of corn usually seems to be of more val­ ue than a pound of barley. There is so much variation in the quality of botli barley and corn that It is pretty hard to make any very: definite com­ parisons. Barley needs almost but not quite as much; protein supplement as does corn. Many Farmers Are Picking Seed Com M ake Selection in F ield B e­ fore Ears R ipen. Selecting seed com in the field be­ fore frost and' preferably before all the ears are ripe affords a better op­ portunity to determine the relative time of maturity and freedom from disease, say agronomists at the Kan­ sas State Agricultural college. It is always a good plan to select more seed than will be needed, agron­ omists say, as replanting may be nec­ essary and there is also the possibil­ ity of selling surplus seed to neigh­ bors. Many Kansas farmers have been able to add considerably to their income by selling seed corn. Ears with poorly filled tips or , with poorly rounded butts have been found to yield just as well as the bet­ ter appearing ears. Tapering ears, which were formerly discriminated against, appear to yield just as well as the preferred cylindrical ears. There seems to be a definite relation, Jiowever,. betjyggn indentation of the kernel and yield. Experiments show that kernels only slightly indented, and therefore on relatively smooth ears, produce better yields than deeply dented kernels from rough ears. This is accounted for by the fact that rough ears usu­ ally have deep kernels and are late in maturing. The shape of the ears and depth of the kernels does not seem to be espe­ cially important so long as well- matured, disease-free ears, of as large size and depth of kernel as can safely be matured, are selected. It Is desir­ able to select those ears which have straight rows and uniform kernels. Kernels from ears with zigzag rows are uneven in size and shape and will not be planted uniformly, especially if the edge drop planter Is usedi No special care in storing seed corn is essential so long as the seed is thoroughly dried before frost, and kept dry until planted. The matter of prompt, thorough drying, however, is important. Usually, hanging the corn in a machine shed or attic where there is good ventilation is all that is necessary. Protection from the weather and rodents, and good ven­ tilation are about the only essentials. Give the B roody H ens P lenty A ir and F eed There are two tilings that will cause a broody hen to quit sitting quicker than any amount of rough treatment. They consist in giving her plenty of fresh air from underneath and an abundance of good egg producing ra­ tion. Air can be supplied by building a crate'with a slatted bottom. This should be placed ■ in a shady spot where the hens will feel like eating. It should be set on the ground as then the birds are more apt to sit. When the hen must sit on slats that allow the air to come tip through the bottom she is very apt to lose her desire for sitting. A feed trough should be attached to this broody crate so that plenty of good egg masl) can be provided. Feeding sour skim milk will prove helpful. iBroody hens may be released from such a crate every other day about five o’clock in the evening and the few that go back to tlie nest may be given a return trip to tlie broody pen. M ilk and M eat Scrap in R ation o f L aying H en According to the Missouri poultry department, two gallons of milk are equal to one pound of meat scrap in the ration of the hen. It means that hens must drink quite a lot of milk each day to obtain protein equal to the amount received in a dry mash containing 20 per cent meat scrap. One hundred hens would need four gallons of milk. It is sometimes difficult to make the hens drink enough mill: to replace all the meat scrap, but if the .meat scrap Is reduced one-half, and tlie hens have alt the milk they can drink, it seems to produce good results in egg produc­ tion.

Dr. Caldwell watched the results of constipation for 47 years, and believed that no matter how careful people are of their health, diet and cxercise, con­ stipation will occur from time to time regardless of how much one tries to avoid i t Of nest importance, then, is how to treat it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always was In favor of get­ ting as close to nature as possible, hence Iiis remedy for constipation, known as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, is a mild vegetable compound. It can­ not harm the most delicate system and is not a liabit forming preparation. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant-tasting, and youngsters love it. It does not gripe. Thousands of mothers have written us to that effect. Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics, and purges. I-Ie did not believe they were good for human beings to put into their system. In a practice of 47 years he never saw any reason for their use when a medicine like Syrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just as promptly, more cleanly and gently, without griping and harm to the system. Keep' free- from constipation! It robs your strength, hardens your ar­ teries and brings on premature old age. Do not let a day go by without a bowel movement. Do not sit and hope, but go to a druggist and get one of the generous bottles of Dr. Cald­ well’s Syrup Pepsin. Take the proper dose that night and by morning you mmmm m 2%.

He carried a 3-line notice advertising oats and barley in one issue of onr paper and sold three of our sub scribers about 100 bushels of seed. We want to gin or buy your cot­ ton. We are now ready to serve you and will do your ginning and pay you the highest market price for your cotton. Come and see us. A. A. HOLLEMAN. PIERCE FOSTER, Manager. Near Overhead Bridge. Attorney E. H. Ikforris is not on­ ly a lawyer but also a farmer. He brought six Irish potatoes to our office last week that weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces. The largest po­ tato measured 22 inches in cir­ cumference the long way and weighed two pounds. These pota­ toes will no doubt capture a pre­ mium if exhibited at the Davie fair. The city schools opened Monday with the largest enrollment in their history. The faculty this year is a strong one, and with the co-oper­ ation of the patents, teachers and students there is no reason why the school should not be the best we have ever had. Prof. E. C. Staton is the efficient superintendent, and his assistants are experienced teach­ ers. Snake stories are becoming very common in Davie county. Pro­ hibition agent Fred Ratledge tells us that his wife went to a wall cup­ board a few days ago and started to get ajar of canned fruit. She took a look and discoved a large black snake neatly coiled around among the fruit jars. She didn t get the fiuit, but summoned help and a nigh'oor killed his snakeship John D, Doty. 75-year-old citi­ zen of Clemmons, while on the, highway Monday morning picking up a turkey that had been run over by a car, was struck by an automo­ bile driven by Tab Smith, of near Redland, and knocked down, his head stricking the pavement. He died in the Baptist hospital at Winston-Salem about 7:3° o’clock Mouday morning, shortly after the accident. = Phone 111 ‘We Deliver The Goods.” j 5 ___ ___________ il-* ■ » . » . ft'I.***',.*'*'!"*''* I******** USED TRUCKS $175GrahamBros.

The Wihston-Salem Journal, Greensboro News and Charlotte Observer have been conducting a discussion over a shorter or better route from Raleigh to Asheville than the present No. 10 by States­ ville and Newton, The Charlotte and Greensboro papers favor the all hard surface route through Greensboro, Lexington, Charlotte, Gastonia and Shelby over the pre­ sent No. 10 from Salisbury west. The Journal offers a shorter route than this through Winston Salem, North Wilkesboro, Lenoir and. Morganton and answers the ob jection to its unimproved sectors by stating that contracts already let will assure completion of this road by stating that contracts already let will assure completion of this road by early next year. This route, the Journal contends, is ac­ tually’ nine miles nearer from Ra­ leigh to Asheville than the present Ne. 10. Let us invite the attention of all three papers to a shorter route than any of the three under discussion that will soon be a reality. High­ way 90 will be when completed all the way from Raleigh to Lenoir perhaps more than thirty miles the shortest route between those points. The Journal advocates a route that is is 209 miles iong from Raleigh to Lenoir, which is says affords a route nine miles shorter to Ashe­ ville than all the way over No. 10. From Lenoir to Raleigh through Lexington, Pittsboro and Sanford the distance is given as 202 miles. Between Lexington and RlleigH this distance ir being shortened on Highway 90 by more direct route from here to Asheboro aud by the new cut-off betweeu Pittsboro and Apex ,for a total of approximately twently miles, which will reduce the distance to 1S2 miles from Ral- to Lenoir, or 27 .miles shorter than the route through Winston-Salem. Between Lexington and Lenoir tie route of old No. 75 is being consi­ derably shortened by the western- Jy extended No. 90 and eventually this will result in the route between Lenoir and the capital being ap­ proximately 35 miles shorter than the one by Greensboro, Winston- Salem and Wilkesboro. These routes merge at Lenoir and Mor- ganton to strike No. 10 for the tiipto Asheville, so what goes for Asheville also. Highway 90 from Raleigh west perhaps has more contracts under way now than any other through state route, which is evidence of its importance in the eyes of the State road builders. It will, be some time yet-before it reaches its ulti­ mate fulfillment but it is rapidly on the way. Highway 90 will offer the finest solution for Raleigh and the state eastware coming through the capital for a route to the west Reaching here, the traveler.from the east will have the choice ol three desirable routes to Asheville, through Lenoir, over No. 10 all the way or through Charlotte and Shel­ by. We make bold to say that for cross state traffic Highway 90 will within a comparatively short time offer distance saving possibilities unequalled by any other route.— Lexington Dispatch. Most of life’s troubles comes from misunderstandings. If we know each other; if we understand each other we shall trust each other; if we trust each o:her;we shall work together in unity of purpose; if ,we work together in unity of purpose there is nothing;worth while which we cannot accomplish.—David H. Blair. These long distance hops are be­ ginning to get tiresome It won’t be safe to owe a man in another State. “Al” Is Buried. . just at nine o’clock Wednesday night the telephone bell in the sheriff's office broke out in a loud clamor: Sergeant Jordan picked up the receiver. ‘‘Someboky’s been killed- out here,” the voice said, “we’ve just seen men buryiughim. They're working on the grave now.” -“Where is it?” the sergeant ask­ ed. "On the Canton, just opposite the entrance to Charley Webb’s home. Come quick.” And- then the myeterious caller hung up the receiver. .\. In a fast car, Sergeant Jordan, Deputy Sheriff Burnett and Rural Policemen Burroughs speeded: to the scene. At the designated place they turned their car to the side of of the road. In front of them was a newly made grave, shown plain­ ly by the headlights of the car. The grave was regulated size and jit was neatlp furnished. At one eijd stood a cross. ’ y The officers were in doubt as to their next step. “We oughtn't to dig up a grave,” said one of them, "it’s a- against the law.” “But this isn t a cemetery,’’..said the other. “We’ve a right to open it, especially since we had the call.” So one of them was dispatched to a nearby house and a shovel was procured. The work began. After the of­ ficers, taking turns, had shoveled, several feet of dirt from the new- grave, the spade struck something and aVfipi )o.w‘sfcfuhd-avas' echr«jd«-. t” - The object was soon uncovered and the officers had it dragged out on .the level ground. "It’s a coffin all right,” said one.' “But it’s only five feet long," said another. “Must be Si child that they buried.” The lid was pried off with the shovel. And there—there the officers found a body so unusual in shape, that it was several minutes before they determined its nature. The object was a flat piece of carboard. On ithad been drawn the crude likeness of a mule.- I11 the; mouth of the mule, or maybe I it was a donkey was a botfle. In !.large letters below were the words: j. “Al Smith.” •“-Well,” said Sergeant Jordon, “ihat’s that.” Deputy sheriffs believed - the work done by. the Ku Klux Klan. 'I Thursday morning they received a report from a reliable source that two hooded members of the Invi­ sible Empire had been seen shortly after nine o’clock'not a hundred yards from the scene of the myter- ious grave.—Asheville Times. Why He Failed As A Merchant. He did not believe in bothering his head to remember a customer’s name. He saw no reason why he should speak to a customer whom he hap­ pened to meet on the sreet. He ■ reasoned that he could not expect to sell everybody,every time, and so he never troubled him­ self to offer to get an article if what was wanted was not in stock. He couldn’t understand what it wasn’t just as well to send state­ ments once every two, four or six months. He looked upon his windows as places through which light came in. So long as they didu’t look ,bare he didn't worry about them. ’He never had any special purpose In putting certain- lines in other than to fill up. r He didn’t believe in taking in­ ventory. „ . ; ;. . -... < 7 , girl’ could figure his accountsas well as an experienced book-keeper. He never troubled himself to at tend meetings of local business men He had no definite hour for op­ ening or closing. He never bothered with his dis­ counts because he thought they didn’t amount to much. He was not always particular a- hout answering his business letters promptly, even whom they had to do with overdue accounts. Few people are ever able to agree upon what they agree upon.

So far as we know there’s no law preventing a high school boy falling in love with anvbodv he wants to, provided the voung lady is willing. Tam Bowie may run for U. S. Senator against Cameron Morrison about 1932, provided Tammie. is still in the land of the living Tam enjoys running for things, even if he doesn't get them.

We have heard of a case of this kind happening here that would evqn cause some good Democrats to hold UD their bauds in amazement. ,0 Mocksville has an A, No. 1 high school—as good as can be found in North Carolina. Such being the case it doesn’t seem that th|re 'tfould be any necessity for our boys and girls to go away to finish their high school education. ■"’ Davie farmers have started to picking cotton.

There is no costume so lovely or withal so gen­ erally wearable for all dressy occa­ sions as the velvet or satin frocks of present-day inspiration. So supple is the new transparent velvet, it shirrs aud drapes and gathers IIte chiffon. The same may be said of the new satins; their suppleness yields to every intricate manipulation.

Clover leaves, daisies, “picture-book” figures and animals are cut of a one-tone gingham or sateen and then sewed on the figured material.

This is worn- over a plaided. gingham plaited i skirt. These blouses can be made of 1 tiny left-over remnants—which is a step toward economy. JULIA BOTTO MLEY. «9, 1927. Western New*»atu»r Union.I S ta n d a r d s A r e Poultry Need N ecessity A rises B ecause Large C onsum ing C enters A re W id ely Separated. (Prepared by the Untted States Department of Agriculture.) Standard grades of poultry products understood and applicable in all parts of the country are needed in the United States, asserted Rob R. Slo­ cum of the United States Department of Agriculture, before the World’s Poultry congress at Ottawa, Canada. This necessity arises because of im­ portant areas of production and the largest consuming centers are widely separated. The United States De­ partment of Agriculture has studied this problem in its relation to eggs and has promulgated a set of stand­ ards of quality applicable to individ­ ual eggs, the quality factors being the condition of shell, yolk, germ and size and condition of air cell. Standards as Basis. With these standards as a basis, said Mr. Slocum, the department formu­ lated three sets of egg grades: Bay­ ing grades, wholesale grades, and re­ tail grades for use at country buying points, in wholesale channels, and in retail channels of trade. A study of standards and grades for live and dressed poultry has been started with a view to issuing them in the near future in tentative form. For maintaining a standard uniform quality in different markets and for settling disputes concerning grades, the department has established in­ spection facilities, permissive, not compulsory. These inspections are of two kinds; Shipping point and ter­ minal market inspection. When ship­ ments are ready for movement, the inspection enables the shipper to de­ scribe the quality to prospective pur­ chasers. After arrival at the mar­ ket, inspection is used to settle dis­ putes to determine the grade and con­ dition of the commodity. Live poultry inspections are being supervised in one market, Ketv York city, with an annual requirement of 12,000 cars, an approximate value of 500,000,000, practically ail of which are now inspected by a supervisor and 11 licensed inspectors. Egg inspec­ tions are made in New York city, Chi­ cago, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Petaluma, Calif., and three points in Missouri. Three Distinct Arrangements. There are three distinct arrange­ ments under which inspection serv­ ices are operated: Straight federal inspection, federal-state inspection, and joint inspection. Under each ar­ rangement, the appointment of super­ visors and inspectors, and the kind of certificate issued conform to conditions of type of inspection. Financing the inspection service also conforms to the arrangement un­ der which it is operated. In federal in­ spection, fees collected are paid into the United States treasury and are not available for further inspection until reappropriated by congress. In federal-state inspection the fees col­ lected by the state are placed in a revolving fund from which salaries of Inspectors and other expenses are paid. In joint inspections, the fees collected by the co-operating agency are used for salaries of inspectors and other expenses, including payment into the United States treasury of an amount equal to that expended by the depart­ ment. Less than three years ago egg in­ spection was begun by the bureau of agricultural economics and that of live poultry only last November, yet in December, 1920, 979 egg inspections, involving over 51,000 cases of eggs were made, while during the same month 1,171 cars of live poultry were inspected and 8,814 baskets of live poultry received by express. • f Agricultural Items f s o ^ o -o * o ^ o s :o -o ^ 0 “0 - 0 3 Sheep are good weed killers.• * » Concrete makes the best kind of a dairy-stable floor. * * * The key to farming success is the three L’s—lime, legumes and live stock.* • • Soy beans yield a valuable oil which is used in the manufacture of paints and varnishes. * * * As the soy bean plant is tender and easily killed by frost, it should not be planted until corn planting time. * » * Proper onion storage provides a free circulation of air around the in­ dividual bulbs.

That is why an ap­ plication of some nitrogenous fertilizer is so necessary to any growing vege­ table. Undesirable Taste and Odors to Milk D epartm ent o f A griculture M ade T ests at B eltsville. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture,)To determine whether dried beet pulp, green oats and peas, pumpkins, carrots, sugar beets, rape, soy beans and bale when fed to dairy cows Im­ part undesirable flavors and odors to the milk, and to ascertain the best methods of feeding such crops and handling the milk, the United States Department of Agriculture has con­ ducted feeding tests at its experiment farm at Beltsville, Md. The cows selected for the Investiga­ tions were giving milk relatively free from abnormal flavors and odors when fed a basic hay and grain ration, and varied in stage of lactation from those fresh to those nearing end of lacta­ tion period. Besides the succulent feed the ani­ mals received, in proportion to milk produced, varying quantities of the following grain mixture: 100 pounds each of hominy feed, bran and oats and 50 pounds each of cottonseed meal and linseed meal. In addition they were given all the alfalfa hay they would readily consume. The cows were divided into groups of four each, and interchanged at intervals of four days. Dried beet pulp soaked and fed wet one hour before milking in quantities up to 30 pounds produced but a slight­ ly abnormal flavor and odor In the milk. The results followed the feed­ ing of a like quantity of green oats and peas one hour before and after milking. Both kale and rape fed in similar quantities on hour prior to milking produced a dscidedly abnor­ mal flavor and odor in the milk, but had a negligible effect when fed after­ ward. Soy beans fed one hour before milking tended to improve the flavor and odor of the milk. Further details of the experiments are given in Technical Bulletin No. 9-T, “Effect of Some Succulent Feeds on the Flavor and Odor of Milk,” a copy of which may be obtained free upon request to the Department of Agriculture, Washington. Poison Room Located .in Heart of London The “poison room” lies a few yards from ar roaring stream of tram cars and omnibuses and lorries,-and with­ in a stone’s throw almost of West-' minster bridge, London, a room, per­ haps six feet by four, its walls almost entirely made of glass, and provided With a double door so that none of the deadly gas with which it is often filled shall leak into the outer air. This poison room in S. E. I is not the lethal chamber of a Lambetb “supercrook,” but is used to test the efficiency of gas masks and other life- saving apparatus by a firm which makes such things. In most cases the poison fumes from inside the room are “fed" to the ex­ perimenters outside through a tube, but they can go in if they like.—From the Continental Edition of the Daily Mail. O rigin o f W ord Chevon Is Clearly E xplained An interesting interview was had with B. M. Halbert of Sonora on the word “elievon,” and its adoption as a universal trade name for goat meat. It was through Mr. Halbert’s efforts that the national contest was held and a prize of a registered Angora buck was given for the most appropriate name submitted. This contest was held by the official organ of the as- SociatiOfti the Sheep and Goat Raisers’ Magazine, of' San Angelo. Twenty- five hundred names were submitted, and out of this number Mrs. E. W. Hargraves, a ranchwoman, won with 'the word chevon. She created the word from the two French words “chevri,” (goat) and “moutton” (mutton.) This was in 1922 and all the associations adopted this word as the official name, but it was not recog­ nized by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture until September. 1924. Soviet Hopes Match Story Told of Snake Senator Guy Goff was talking, at a luncheon, about the decline of the Soviets. “Soviet Russia,” ne said, ‘‘is as in­ capable of bringing about a world rev­ olution as—well, as the Pike county blacksnake was incapable of the ruse with which it has been credited. “A Pike county mother, so the story runs, once left her babe outside the shack pulling on a full milk bottle when a blacksnake glided up. “The snake nestled close to the child, drew the rubber nipple from its mcuth, and proceeded to drink the milk; but at the same time, lest tears and lamentations draw the mother to the scene, the clever reptile did not neglect to slip the end of its tail gently between the infant’s lips by way of a comforter.”—Detroit Free Press.

C utting C anada T histle by P hases o f the M oon Cutting Canada thistle by phases of the moon, signs of the zodiac, on cer­ tain mysterious dates or according to the appearance of sun spots, methods all advocated by some farmers, will not eradicate the pest, but belief in these signs sometimes has the practi­ cal value of causing the thistle to be cut before seeding, is the opinion of A. A. Hansen of the Purdue extension staff. The most valuable sign by which to cut the pestiferous thistle is found in the flowering head. If the spiny nui­ sance is cut as soon as the heads be­ gin to show purple, the production of seeds is usually prevented ’and the plant will spread but slowly. The principal means by which Canada thistles spread is the wind-distributed seeds which are frequently blown con­ siderable distances. A single seed may thus start a new patch several hun­ dred feet from the parent plant. S ilage Should B e U sed W ith Other R oughages Silage is relished by all kinds of farm animals and is a reasonably safe feed for any except males kept for breeding purposes, or horses at heavy, labor. However, best results are not secured by feeding only silage, but it should be used in connection with oth­ er roughage and grain In proportions varying with the kind and condition of animals as well as the end one In- , tends to effect through feeding. That a feed is cheap and plentiful is no rea­ son for wasting it, and true economy in feeding is only to be found where there is a definite purpose in view. N eglected Opportunity Large areas of land in almost every section of the country are, or should be, in permanent pasture. The fact that much land which is in pasture was once covered with bluegrass and white clover and is now growing little but weeds and inferior grasses is evi­ dence enough of declining fertility and explodes the theory that pasture land automatically maintains its fer­ tility. Pastures need cultivation anil fertilization just as much as any other crop.

Isn’t it lovely?” Before Mary could reply, her hand Copyright, 192S, by M arsaret Turnbull. WITO Service CHAPTER XI—Continued —19— Mary liatl made brief visits to St. Marks with her mother, but now she hurried up the steep stone stairs toward the galleries and the capeilo di oro. A service was in progress be­ fore one of the altars. Jlary paused a moment to fee the genial <)!,! custodian, whose greeting was ;is toothless as it was friendly. As sho Kiiod peering down into the dim clmieti, she was conscious of BOine one near her, watching her. She looked up—into Ned Carter’s eyes. She could scarcely believe it, and yet something she read in his eyes made Iier stretch out her hand. Ned grasped it, and that steadied her. She thought slie heard him murmur “Mary.” She was not sure. She turned, confusedly, her hand still un­ accountably in his, and they went through the doorway that led to the golden horses. It was so narrow Iiere that quite naturally she recovered her hand. As they stepped cut into the sunshine, and the cool sea breeze, Mary felt herself able to face Ned. T h her conscious amazement, she found this no easy thing to do. There was a Khining something in his eyes, to wliieh she seemed loathe to give a name, or to fully recognize. There was so much confusion in her mind, thoughts half formed flitting across it like birds of the night, that she finally left it to Ned to break the silence. All he seemed able to say was “Mary!” “Are you here,” Mary began des­perately, “with my—" Ned gave a swift look about to as­ sure himself that they were alone. “Oh, what does it matter who I am with? I’m here because you are here, and I couldn’t stay in Clover Hollow without you. I’ve followed you, Mary, to tell you—” “Hush!” said Mary warningly, and put her finger gently against his lips, for out of the little doorway had ap­ peared the wondering heads of a Ger­ man youth of about twenty, and his bride. Mary moved away, seated herself on the stone parapet beneath tlie horses aad looked out over the piazza. Ned stood beside her, looking down. “My father—” she began. “Yes, I came here with C. M. Dabbs, and I know where he is, but I’m not to meet him for half an hour yet. Surely you can listen to me for that length Cf time. If you don’t,” lie threatened, “I won’t tell you where to find him. If you’re kind to me, I’ll lead you to him.” “Mr. Carter, aren’t you a little sud­ den in your methods?” “I’m anything you like except ‘Mr. Carter.’ And if I seem sudden, look at the provocation.’ At a certain shop your father is waiting, and once he gets within hailing distance I’ll be pushed, shoved, ignored or kicked into the background. So, Alary—No you don’t, my dear. There’s absolutely no use in our roaming around looking at things in shop windows. Down this alley-way there's a flight of stone steps leading to the canal. If you come that way, we could wait in the shade for a gondola.” “To take me to father?” “Eventually, yes,” admitted Ned, “but primarily to listen to me.” “About father? Oh, I should love to hear about him!” "Would you? Well, I’ve lots to tell. A wonderful traveling companion, fict first you must hear about me.” They had reached one step and while Ked signaled a passing gondola, Mary thought of Mm and wondered at her­ self. Why should she go with him? Mother would never approve of this! Nevertheless, she waited for his gon­ dola and listened to him with a smile. It was like walking into a trap, but was she so unwilling to be caught? She had one wild impulse toward flight cs Ned concentrated his atten­ tion upon getting the gondola ready for his lady. It would be so easy to slip away now. As she made the first Btep his* hand was on her arm. very gently but compellingly, and she had stepped into the gondola. They sat side by side for a few moments in silence as the gondola, made its way into the Grand canal. Then Ned turned to her and spoke about Venice, its sudden and unex­ pected charm for him when he had first seen the city. He loved it. This lazy method of locomotion was per­ fect. Did she not think so? Mary ^ould rliaps'odize with him over Venice to his heart’s content, and began to think she had been fearful without cause.They had turned from the Grand cunal iuio a narrower, half-deserted looking waterway, quite evidently leadtag to the private entrance ot several old palaces. Over the wall of one streamed green branches ami creepers, the remains of an old gar­ den, once hidden from the public eye. The canal was beautiful, and dark with shade. Here and there long splashes of sunlight stole between thick walls and made bars across the water. •“I knewr you'd love it. I’ve always was crushed in his, his shoulder was against her own and his lips close to her ear were murmuring, so that she alone could hear all that he longed to tell her. It was extremely jerky and incoherent. In fact, there was very little sense in it It was rather like what every man does with his preconceived idea of how he Is going to conduct his love scene. Ned, being very much in love, made a bad botch of it. In fact, the astonished Mary could not distinguish anything except that she was disturbing the even tenor of his life considerably, that she was adorable, and—though every­ thing was implied that should have been implied there was not a single word about marriage or engagement. Most of it was “Oh, Mary!” They were approaching the old bridge. TIie bridge, low and dark, seemed to JIary the proper place to arrest the stream of Ned’s eloquence. She determined to release her hand. It did not seem easy. She tried it, however, and turned her face so that she might look at him and make him understand, As she turned, the lips so close to her ear brushed her cheek, met her mouth and dung there. It was the first time—for Mary. Other men had tried to kiss her mouth, just as other men had asked her to marry them, but none had suc­ ceeded. When the gondola shot from under the bridge into the sunlight, the gon­ dolier, who of course must have sus­ pected, if he had not seen, burst out into one of his cries of warning that precede a turning. Ned involuntarily straightened up, came out of his dream and looked guiltily at Mary. Mary was furious. Her cheeks flamed. She felt her whole body was one burning blush. She hated him.1 It was as though he had kissed her in the open street. But she hated herself more, for even while she blushed to remember his lips, she had a horrible suspicion that she would like to be kissed again. CHAPTER XII How can a man apologize for kiss­ ing a lady? It’s not done. One ei­ ther goes on, or leaves off, and if cir­ cumstances or places compel one to leave oil abruptly, then surely the lady should understand. Ned, who had kissed several on the way to Mary, was completely at a loss. None of them had taken it just like this; grown red, then silent, and re­ fused to meet his eyes. He would not have cared if they had, but he did care now. He made one or two at­ tempts at speech, but the shoulder shrank from his, the hand refused to be held, and the face remained averted. The high gods, who love a lover, saw his plight and gave Ned the only words that could help him. “I’m not sorry. But I am sorry you take it like this.” A voice from far away said: “It was like—like a servant girl out with a—”“Grocer’s boy,” finished Ned. “I suppose that’s why you feel insulted." TIie colored marble he had been sit­ ting beside for the last few moments, returned to life. “Ned Carter! You know it wasn’t that. Naturally I re­ sented you-r-” but the voice stopped abruptly and the blue eyes had a haze of tears.Ned gathered up the limp hand again, very gently, and kept his eyes fixed on the water of the sluggish canal. “What am I to do? How are you to know that I am mad abont you, unless I tell you? And how can you know whether you like kissing me, unless I try it?” “You’re outrageous; I know noth­ ing about you, and to—oh—In a gon­ dola—in broad daylight!” Ned’s laugh echoed across the ca­ nal. “Oh, Mary, I adore you. How long will it take you to learn that by- heart? I’ll say it all over again, to­ night, and in the darkest corner of Venice.”“You will not get a chance. You will please land now, and take me to my father.” “If I do, will you think about me?” “Oh, yes, I’ll think about you,” and with that Ned had to be content. “Mary, your father’s very fond of me.” “That’s the one thing I know Sn your favor.” “If you ask Claude Dabbs, he will tell you all about me.” “I shall not ask my father.” This being exceedingly satisfactory to Ned, he went on a few steps in si­ lence. glancing down at the adorable hat this loveliest of ladies wore. It was faced with blue that matched her eyes. He wished slie would look up. “How are you to know—if you do not ask?” She looked np, and down again quickly. “Oh, I shall know.” “If you leave it to your heart,” he murmured close to her ear, “I shall be satisfied.” “If my father were not standing there watching us,” said Mary in the same conversational tone, “I would slap you, good and hard.” She left him and went forward ea­ gerly to greet Claude. He came as eagerly to meet his girl, and Ned found himself very much out of the picture. The girl, who had been hard to him, was very sweet and daugh­ terly to Claude. It was Claude who kindly held Ned within the charmed circle, and Mary who made him feel out of touch. AU the rest of that lovely after­ noon Mary wandered about with the two men who loved her. It was agreed between Mary and Claude Dabbs that if Polly kept to her room that night, Mary should contrive to dine with him. She could, without actually telling a fib, she assured Claude, allow her mother to suppose that she was dining with the Farleys, and Mrs. Farley was a dear and would understand Si Mary told her at the last minute that she was dining with friends. She would telephone from her hotel and Claude could come and take her to his, and bring her back. With this they had to be content. They parted from Mary before they reached the entrance to her hotel. Polly’s headache was better, but she decided not to get up. When Mary came into her room, ready to go to dinner, Polly was sitting up in bed, a tray before her.“My word, Mary, you look sweet. Turn around and let me see if I’ll like you as well when you leave the room as I do when you come in. “The Farleys - ought to appreciate you, Mary. Is young Farley to be there tonight? If his mother knew we were poor it might make a differ­ ence, you know.” “I hope it does,” Mary answered lightly, apparently engrossed with her image in the glass. “I could do with less of young Farley.” Then what is it, her mother thought, that makes her look just that way? It must be a man! “Anyone interesting among the new arrivals?” “I don’t know,” Mary answered honestly. “I’ll look them over when I go down, and report.” She kissed her mother and hurried away. Polly rested back against her pil­ lows and sighed. How long could she keep Mary? Not very long, if the men of this generation were at all like those of the last. Well, at any rate Claude should not have her. Mary must have her chance and not be dragged back to a village grocery store—the same one from which her mother had fled so many years ago. Mary explained to Mrs. Farley, hav­ ing first telephoned Claude, that she was dining with an old friend. Mrs. Farley, who had no daughters and adored Mary, watched with inter­ est Mary’s meeting with a big, dark, middle-aged man who looked rather distinguished. Mary thought her father looked stunning. It was frightfully roman­ tic, she told him, eloping with one’s father in a gondola.“You wouldn’t even look at me if Mother were here in all her glory. Mother is—oh, Father, Mother is a perfect peach!” “There was a poet, long ago, who put what I feel abont Polly in a nut­ shell,” Claude answered. “It was something about: '/f she isn’t my peach, I don't cate how peachy she is.’”“Father! Stop! Don’t murder, ‘If she be not fair for me, What care I how fair she be.’ ”(TO BE CONTINUED.) Provided Method of Escape From Indians Built in 1663, the oldest brick house in Virginia stands on the south bank of James river, about midway between Surrey Court House and Scotland Wharf. It is called Smith’s Fort, but as a matter of historical accuracy the building erected by Capt. John Smith In 160S and named by him New Fort stood about a quarter of a mile to the west of this house and now few traces of the old Indian defense are to be seen. The Colonial records show that the house was built by Thomas War­ ren in 1663 on land bought by him from Thomas Rolfe, son of John Kolfe and Pocahontas, daughter of the fa­ mous Indian king Powhatan. There Is a tradition connected with one of the closets ia this ased bon=* ITram ooo in an upper room a trap door and a stationary ladder led down to a brick walled closet in the basement front which it Is said an underground pass­ age led to the original Smith’s fort on the banks of a creek nearly a quarter of a mile away.

Perhaps the most sat­ isfactory method of review will be the summing up of the leading events and teachings of each lesson. The assign­ ments should be made a week ahead, so that the members of the class may recite without hesitation. The follow­ ing suggestions are offered: Lesson for July 3. Against the protest of Samuel the people demanded a king, in order that they might be like otber nations. Saul, of the tribe of Benjamin, was given as best suited to fill the place. Lesson for July 10. Because of Samuel’s exemplary Iifq as a child, a judge and a ruler, he was able to challenge the people to show wherein he had ever defrauded or op­ pressed anyone. It is a fine thing when a man in public life can be vin­ dicated against the charge of wrong­ doing, either in public or in private. Lesson for July 17. Saul’s failure brought great sorrow of heart to SamueL The selection of David from Jesse’s sons showed that God looks not on the outward appear* ance, but upon the heart. David's fidelity as a shepherd boy put him in line for promotion. Lesson for July 24. Because David was jealous for and trusted in God he was able to over* come Goliath, who had defied the liv­ ing God. Lesson for July 31. 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, the crown prince, knew that God had cho­ sen David, therefore he waived his natural rights. Lesson for August 7. David knew that God had rejected Saul and chosen himself to be king. Though relentlessly pursued by Saul, David spared the king because he was God’s anointed. Lesson for August 14. When David was made king he de­ sired to bring up the ark, the symbol of God’s presence, to the center of. the nation’s life. Though his desire was worthy, he was not careful to do ac­ cording to God’s way. Doing a right thing in a wrong way is displeasing to God. Lesson for August 21. Though God did not permit DavId to build a house for Him, He did some­ thing better; Be promised to build for David a house, that is, to establish for him a throne. God does more and better for us than we are able to ask or think. Lesson for August 28. Through neglected duty David fell into temptation and grievously sinned. By means of a parable Nathan the prophet convicted him of his sin. Upon confession to God forgiveness was granted. Lesson for September 4. Because Solomon chose wisdbm In order to intelligently reign over the nation, God abundantly bestowed upon him wisdom and riches. God’s bless­ ings exceed our asking. Lesson for September 11. Solomon’s first task after his coro­ nation was building (he temple, a privilege which was denied to David, his father. Because of Solomon's obe­ dience God manifested His presence and thus made the temple holy. Lesson for September 18. Rehoboam’s pride and arrogancy lost to himself the support of the ma­ jor portion of the nation. We Grow Strong or Weak Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them. Silently, day by day, we grow strong or weak and at last some crisis shows what we have become.—Canon West- cott.

Byrd lias announced that he will try to add to bis laurels as an explorer, gained by be­ ing the first to fly to the North pole and among the first to make a nonstop flight across the Atlantic, by flying over the South pole witliin the next two years. Not the least of the interest in this latest project of the gallant Virginian is its significance as a connecting link be­ tween Antarctic and Arctic explora­ tion. The first man to reach the South pole was Roald Amundsen, the Norwegian explorer, who achieved the goal in 1911. Last year Mr_ Amund­ sen was in the party which flew a dirigible to the North pole soon after Commander Byrd had made bis epic dash there by airplane. Now Com­ mander Byrd is going into the regions where Amundsen won his fame—sort of repaying the visit, as it were. But Commander Byrd’s project Is to be more than just a dash to the South pole so that he can say that he has flown "to the uttermost ends of the earth,” both North and South. It is to be a scientific expedition which is expected to open an un­ known continent, twice tlse size of the United States, to the knowledge of mankind. The two explorers, Amundsen and Scott, who did reach the Pole found only a lifeless plain there. Several other explorers have skirted along the edge of the great ice fields which surround the Ant­ arctic continent and one or two of them have penetrated it for some dis­ tance, only to lose their ships or to be frozen in for an Antarctic winter. So that today this great plateau, which has an altitude of 10,000 feet is the modem “unknown continent,” and by crossing it froim coast to coast In two directions, by visiting its center and its. four corners Commander Byrd hopes to discover some of its secrets. Especially does he hope to reveal the fact that there Is on this con­ tinent forms of animal and plant life Idtherto unknown to man, and if he is successful it is likely that the penguin, so well known to all ex­ plorers in this region, will no longer be the symbol of the Antarctic, just as the polar bear is the symbol of the Arctic.

Inland, where the great plateaus stretch out to the pole, there is nothing. The temperature, which even in summer gets down to 30 or 40 degrees below zero and which sinks far below that in winter, is too extreme for animal life of any sort. Becanse of tlie extreme tempera­ tures'which Commander Byrd men­ tions, as well as several other factors characteristic of that region, Ant­ arctic exploration is even more per­ ilous than Arctic. Among these other factors are the blizzards of high velocity which sweep down from the plateau and these winds, laden with snow and fine particles of ice, often reach a speed of 70 miles an hour. It was in one of these blizzards that the gallant Capt. Robert F. Scott lost his life In that tragic retreat from tlx: South pole in 1912 wlien he perished only eleven miles from his base and safety. The Antarctic has special perils for the aviator-explorer because the wind conditions there are further complicated by numerous mountain ranges and lofty peaks, some of them as high as 15,000 feet, and two. of them active volcanoes. In view of the perilous nature of this expedition, Commander Byrd is taking unusual precautions and mak­ ing the most careful preparations be­ fore setting out. It was first an­ nounced that lie would start this fall, but a later announcement indicates tbat the size of the expedition and the many things that must be accom­ plished have made this Impossible. Commander Byrd has decided that no less than a year of forethought and attention to minute detail will be nec­ essary to reduce tlie hazards of the trip. The general plan is to sail first to New Zealand and from there to strike out for the ice pack on the border of Ross sea.. After penetrating this Ice barrier he will set .up.bis permanent base near Discovery harbor, where he will build his houses, assemble his plane and make a number of test flights. Two planes will be taken, one large three-motor ship, capable of lifting 14,000 pounds and the other a small single-motor plane. Commander Byrd will load the smaller plane with six months’ supplies of food and spare cans of oil and gasoline and fly 100 miles toward the South pole. If he finds conditions favorable he will land, set up a base, take observations and return to the home base for a sec­ ond load. Then by a series of short flights he will set down a line of . emer­ gency bases to within 400 or SOO miles of the pole. From the last of these he will make the long flight to his goal, land if possible, -and then return. If the trip to the pole is successful and winter has not closed In, Byrd will also make flights to the southeast and southwest somewhere at the foot of the great plateau. He will also skirt the coastline, flying over thousands and thousands of square miles never before seen by man. if all of his plana are successful, for the firet time In history, the great Antarctic continent will at last be charted and mapped. Although the exploring will be done mainly by the two planes, it is inter­ esting to note that equipment sim­ ilar to that of previous explorers will also be taken along. On his polar flight Commander Byrd will carry a sled, pemmican to last many months, sleeping bags, oil burners, skiis and snowslioes, so that if he is forced 'to land and abandon the plane lie wilt be able to trek back over the plateau to the home base. It is for this rea­ son also that the food supplies will be planted along the route to the pole. \And these'are only a few of the In­ numerable details which must be thought of before the expedition sets out . In this polar expedition, perhaps the most important of modern times, the margin between success and fail­ ure will be very small. Nothing will be left to chance and if adequate preparation for every possible con­ tingency counts for anything the ex­ pedition should be successful and Commander Byrd, the first to reach the Nortli pole by air, will also be the first to carry the Stars and Stripes to tlie other end of the earth.

Talk With Your Face Nothing so clearly distinguishes the successful, person as enthusiasm. When a man is so enthusiastic that his face lights up, his eyes shine, and his voice is vibrant, he compels at­ tention and Iiig words carry convic­ tion. Leam to talk with your face. The man who never changes expres­ sion seldom amounts to much. He whose face so registers his thoughts that a deaf person would be drawn to him intensifies his impact mani­ fold.

WHIPPLE read the docu­ ment carefully, ignoring the outstretched penholder in her husband’s band. “Mortgage, on the farm,” slit said, as her eyes reached the bottom, “and you want me to sign it?” “Naturally, as I’m standing here holding out a pen to you." She dropped the paper on the table and turned to him. ' “It’s for the au­ tomobile you’ve been talking about, I suppose?” she asked. “Do you re­ member it took ten years to pay off the mortgage that .was on tlie place when I married you? And do you realize that though Mary’s expenses at the seminary and Tom’s at college are all paid for the present year, $1,- 500 will be needed for the next? We have some $300 in the bank, I think, and you’ve rented the farm we might have counted on for some income. See your way?’’ “There you go," said Whipple Irri­ tably; “always and forever trying to throw cold water, on whatever I bring up. Of course, I’ remember, and, of course, I realize. The money'll come round all right when it’s needed. It always does. But you seem to forget the farm’s naturally mine. Tou didn’t have a cent when I married you.” Mrs. Whipple flattened the paper on the table, took the pen from his liand and signed her name quietly. “I can’t answer that argument, William,” she said coldly. “You flung it at me when you rented the farm. It is an unfortunate fact that I did not bring you any money.” “Oil, come, now, Mary,” apologized her husband as he picked up the pa­ per and slipped it into his pocket, “you know I didn't quite mean that. I’m always making fool statements Pm sorry for afterward. Of course, T don’t really own the farm. There was the $3,000 mortgage, and you helped pay that olf—in fact, It was your idea ano energy tbat rid it. I never could Iiave paid it off by my­ self. So it’s really part yours, and I only rented it for two years, you know. I’m forty-eight and have worked pretty hard, and I— I feel I ought to have a little rest—that both of us ought to. We can take up the farm again at the end of two years if we like. ‘Tm awfully glad you’ve come around to see the automobile buying same as I do,” he mumbled, “l't’s time we had one. Olem Anderson and Sam Potter, and—” “I understand,” she interrupted. “Mrs. Anderson was talking with me the other day. They mortgaged their farm to buy a car. Jlr. Potter got his father to indorse a note for him at a bank. The Smitlis have considerable surplus money, I believe, so It was all right for them, I understand all right. VoD had automobile on the brain three months ago, when you first hint­ ed about renting the farm. You’d never have dreamed of such a thing otherwise. You wanted more time to play with it.” “There, that proves you don’t un­ derstand !’’ he exclaimed triumphant­ ly. “You think it’s just extravagance. It Isn’t. The agent says there’s no trouble at all in selling automobiles. It’s fair time now, and he’s going round to the big ones and says he’d like a man along to help. So this af­ ternoon I’m to get my car and then go with him a few weeks to learn about driving it and bow to sell. Why, I wouldn’t wonder if I could sell lots of ’em. The $1,600 won’t be needed for nearly a year, and Tm likely to make it two or three times over in that time. The agent says—” “Just what day does the renter take possession?” “Next Monday. But he’ll come into the house today with bis family. That will make it pleasanter for you. me being away, so you won’t be lone­ some. They take only the back part of the house, so there needn’t be any more mixing than you like. It’ll be lots easier and pleasanter for yon, Mary,” concilintingly; “board with them, have all the company yon like and go visiting whenever you like.” “I shall go away myself tomorrow,” she said calmly. “No use my staying on here.” “You—go away! But you mustn’t, Mary. It wouldn’t be right. Then, there’s nobody but your sister, and you wouldn't want .to live there. Her husband—” “Not there, of course. I’m thinking of the $1,600. I shall be doing what I can to—” "Mary!” quick wrath mingling with the expostulation. “You. surely don’t mean going back to your old work of demonstrating family flour to the pub­ lic, baking biscuit and waffles with It, and having your girls pass ’em round with cups of colTee to gaping listeners while you talk? I don’t mean but its nice work, and you used to draw big pay, and it was listening to you lec­ turing on a platform that started me to" falling In love—but—but, Mary, can’t you see? Going back to work would make it seem like—like I was hard up.” Mary Whipple looked at him with a half smile, tenderness in her eyes, but resolution on her lips. She was still tlie striking figure that had demon­ strated flour to the public 'twenty years before, a little older, a little stouter, but with the same friendly eyes and dear, persuasive voice.. “Will Whipple,” .she smiled, “you’re a dear, good man, with a warm, lor* ing heart as big as your body. Your face is still the same handsome, dean- souled one that I once singled out from the crowd looking up at me. But, for all that, you’re only a big irre­ sponsible, headstrong boy, as you al­ ways have been and always will be. Just now you’ve taken the bit in your mouth in spite of reason and my wishes. Ibdeed, you didn’t even ask my advice, knowing you were con­ templating a foolish move. But we’ll let all that pass. Now you want to lock me up while you’re racing with a lot of future trouble. It can’t be done. Will, really and truly it can’t. I’ve got to try to head you off in some way, get between you and the stone wall, and arrange as best I can for that 51,600. To tell the whole truth, Mary and Tom are more in my thoughts just now than you.” After dinner Whipple left, with pro­ fuse but unsaid apologies in his eyes and hesitating voice. The next morn­ ing the new tenant arrived with his family, slipping quietly into the back part of the house. Toward noon there was a whirr and honking outside that drew Mrs. Whipple to a window. She supposed it was her husband, re­ turned unexpectedly. But, no, it was a strange car, much handsomer and more substantial looking than her husband’s. She already had packed and dressed for departure and had been about to call the tenant’s boy to harness a horse when the honking came. She went to see what was wanted. “Mr. Whipple at home?” “No, and likely to be gone several weeks.” The man seemed much disappoint­ ed. “Too bad!” he exclaimed, “and here Pve made a run of twenty miles to see him. We heard he was think­ ing of buying a car and we’ve got the best for the money that’s on the mar­ ket. You see, I happened to be In this section starting a new agent and, fearing he might not be experienced enough yet to show off the car prop­ erly, I came up myself. I’m the trav­ eling manager of the firm and must leave tomorrow. Well, I may as well go.” “Wait a few minutes, please,” said Mrs. Whipple, as she stepped outside. ■Td like to look at the ear and have a little talk with you.” They looked over tlie automobile to­ gether, he explaining and listening to what she said. His first impatience soon gave place to a forgetfulness that he was in a hurry. At the end of twenty minutes he was nodding and smiling. ‘•We’ve never tried a woman be­ fore,” he said; “but with your previ­ ous experience and manner I' really believe it’s going to be great And your grasp of things is nothing less than intuition. In a few days you’ll know as much about the car as I do. Now you say you were all ready to start. Have your suitcase brought out and put into the car and I’ll take you right through. It will be quicker than a train, and I will want to intro­ duce you to the general manager my­ self. You’ll be just the person to reach the higher class of woman trade.” At the end of six weeks Whipple came home. He was not a good cor­ respondent, and in all the six weeks he had not written a line home. He approached the house apologetically. But all he found was a brief note from Iiis wife, giving her address In care of a well-known automobile firm. He looked at the name perplexedly. “Demonstrating flour,” he muttered, “and to be addressed here. What— oh, I see. Using one of their cars, of course.” For a week he stayed at the farm, not knowing what to do with himself. Then he took his car out on a selling trip through the neighborhood, with­ out success. One man really wanted a car and. he looked over Whipple’s very carefully and then went up to the city and purchased one just like' it. When AVhippIe heard of it he scowled. “I primed him up for the purchase,” he thought, dismally, “but he’ felt a plain farmer’s opinion 011 automobiles couldn’t be depended on, so he went and bought of some dapper city salesman. Ho-hum! Wish I' hadn't rented. Wish Mary’d come home.” But it was six months before Whip­ ple saw a handsome machine cross the yard swiftly and curve to a grace­ ful stop directly in front of the door. He was admiring the skill of it while hurrying forward to find out what was wanted. Then he stopped short, staring, when he saw that bis wife was tlie driver and only occupant. “I didn’t know you could run a ma­ chine, Mary,” he stammered. “Been running this one nearly six months,” she answered, as she dropped lightly to tlie ground and of­ fered her face for a kiss. “How are tilings?” Rotten,” he groaned. "Pve paid out half the rent money in repairing my car, and'-now I guess it’s nothing but a junk pile, for I can’t make It stir any more. Wish we could go back to wiiere we were before we rented. But that’s a dandy car you’ve got Where did you hire it?” “Bought it Will,” she answered. 'Or rather, the firm gave it to me as a bonus on sales. I’ve had fine suc­ cess, and the $1,600 Isalready banked Of course, we can’t come back to the farm till the two years are; up, so I’ll keep on. machine selling till then, Will, for I have a sale pending at Milltown this evening. I sold one this morning fifty miles the other way, and came by here in hope of finding ?'ou.at leisure. I need a man to help me m my sales. Will you do It, Will?” And Whipple, to Ssis glory be it said, answered: “Yes, glid to Mary.

Spach Family Re-Union The first Spacb or Spaugh re uniou will be held at- Friedberg Moravian Church nine miles south of Winston-Salem, N. C., Sunday October 9th at 11 :oo iu the morn ■Hg. A most interesting program has been planned for the day. Al! the Spach’s and Spaugb aud all related to .the Spach or Spaugh family, either by blood ot marriage, are urgently requested tQ attend and bring well filled bas kets for the dinner which will be held in the church grove after the service at 11 :oo o’clock. It has been said tuat. none of the early Settlers have such heritage as Adam Spach of the Historical Roch House, and a very largely attend ed re-urn on is expected. Here is Henry Ford at 65 spend­ ing fifty or a hundred million dol­ lars to put out a car—Aged Man Starts Anew the headline writers would put it—with the possibility of winding up the most remarkable commercial career of all time in one grand crash. If retooling for the new Ford is said to cost 100 million, in real money. When some bankers tried to nip the flivver maker a few years ago, he simply put the screws on his agents and squeezed out of them what he need­ ed; and since then, as is commonly supposed, he has stuck to money and let finance alone. When Mr. Ford received that offer of a billion dollars for his business which con­ sisted mainly of the common, gard­ en or model T car, it may be he al­ ready saw that the flivver was a flivver indeed; that this mechanism which he had supposed would be rattling merrily along years after he had returned to the dust was in fact done for. Of course nobody offered him a billion dollars in real cash for anything; bankers do not do business that way. It is courageous enough for Ford to carry on. He could have sold his factories, undoubtedly, tor an immense sum, even iu real money; and according to the popular be­ lief he already had more of it than half a dozen men could spend in a life time. He had come to the point where he had either to quit or to embark upon a new venture. Maybe the younger Ford persuad­ ed him to stay with it; maybe no­ body wille ever know whether Heury was tired of the game, 'fell the burden of ' tremendously hard work. From what is known of the man from without the barriers that surround such greatness, it will be believed that he carries on because it is his nature to carry on, and be­ cause he feels confident of an un- dimished strength aud mastery. This man has been accustomed tor some 25 years to make Fate eat out of his hand, to wave a magic wand, to order Destiny about. Habit is strong. He could trust a good deal to the momentum of the immense machine he has wrought. Every­ body and everything seem to help him. The name of Ford, all over the world, is not even to be asso­ ciated with the idea of failure. He has set at naught one after another of the laws of economics, and it seems foolish to quote wise saws and ancient maxims at him. His new car, which is to come out some time, any time is the great secret; a magnificent piece of publicity which costs the Fords nothing. The thing could flop, and the many millions spent in making machinery to produce ,t shiink to a few mil lions, and still Henry would be bet­ ter fixed—or so the world supposes —than almost anybody else. He is 65, has revolutionized industry and transportation, business itself; as lively, apparently, as a cricket, youthful enough in his feelings to essay the revolution.

"My tobacco," Dave said the other day, “ought to yield me a? round a thousand pounds to the acre. Since it is of a vqry excel;; lent quality, I am confident it wilj bring an average price of around: 25 cents. I have 35 acres iu cot­ ton, but on account of the boll wee­ vil, I won’t make over 30 bales. But the price will more than make up for the deceased yield." Dave thinks his cotton aud to­ bacco will briug him around $9,000 which is quite a nifty return, any­ one will allow for a year’s labor on the farm, Speaking of boll weevils, he says the pest is easily controlled in the sandy land of that section, unless wet weather sets in as was the ^ase this year, by the simple method of. plowing between the rows with a 24-inch plow. This operation ex­ poses weevil eggs to the glare Af the sun, which with the heat gen-: erated from the upturned earth: soon finish a maturing crop. ; "I have made more cotton thru this' method of boll weevil ,control,”:; said Ross, "than adjoining poison- dusted fields pf my neighbpts,'' Then And Now. . " Theiollowing rules, supposed to have been written by a young lady aud found by a newspaper re­ porter, might be ready with inter­ est aud profit by the WinstomSa- Iem girls of today,” remarked a mother who suggested that they be given space iu this department:-. 1. I dop't let a man smoke when be walkes or drives with me. If he knows no better than to do it, I promptly tell him what I think of it. 2. I don’t give my photograph to men. , I used to, accasionally, but I am wiser now. I should hate by and by to know that my face might be hanging up in Torn or Harry’s room. 3. I don’t let a man take my arm when he walks with me. If he does, I tell him I prefer him to give me his arm. 4. I don’t go out with a man friend just because he asks me. I like.it belter if he asks another lady to go too—his sister, for in­ stance. 5. I don’t let any man ‘ see me nmie” from church. If he hasn't enough gumption to take me there and sit through tne service with me, he may stay away altogether. 6. I don't let a man friend give me presents unless it is something of a trifling costs, like • fruits or flowers. And I always gauge a man by his taste in this respect. 7. I don’t encourage any young tnan who is not perfectly polite and agreeable to my mother. Who­ ever calls upon me sees a great deal of her. . . . 8. I don't allow a caller to slay later than 1 a o’clock. If he does not go at that cime I-politely tell him my custom.—Twin City Senti­ nel. The one thing a wife will cheer­ fully admit to her.husband is; that she can’t think any reason for hav­ ing, married him.

There ■ were three big days and three big ’Rights and the fair was a success in every way. The attendance was much largerthan was expected by even the most optomislic persons. The attendance during the fair was around 7,000. Wednesday’s at Tendance was between three and four thousand. A number of ad 'joining:counties were represented, although Davie furnished the great majority of the visitors. The ex­ hibits numbered more than 5,000, and consisted of practically every­ thing that could be grown in this ■.section, together with fine cattle, ,hogs, sheep, chickens, horses, tnules, turkeys, ducks, geese etc. All kinds of preserves. Jellies, canned goods, fancy work, garden and field products, wheat, corn, tobacco, cotton, peanuts, beans, etc., were on exhibit. It would take too much space to even men­ tion the various articles that were to be seen in the various booths. No finer exhibits will be found at' ,any fair in this section. Thejudges jwere kept busy nractically all day ^Wednesday. Much credit is due the good ladies of the county who did such faithful work in helping ft^.ptit the fair over in a big way. “7C|redit is due all the fair officials fftoni’ the president down to the ,,’gjjtmet who brought bis products raridput them on exhibit. The Mtizens of the town and county "spent much time in promoting this , fair and they all, worked together dp harmony. The fair means much to the.eutire county and will go far towards improving farming condi- Vtipns, promoting better stock, cat­ tle, poultry, hogs, sheep, etc., and will give the county much good ad­ vertising. This will mean also a bigger and even better fair here next. year. The Record is mighty proud of Davie county, and feels that there is not a better place in North Carolina in which to live. Gur people have demonstrated the fact, that they can stage as good a fair as our neighboring counties. Those who failed to attend the fair missed a big treat. Let’s all be­ gin work now to make the 1928 fair even bigger and better than the one. just closed. Mrs. Koontz Winner. Mrs;, E, E.

Twenty- one voung ladies entered the pret­ ty girl contest, while 17 men enter­ ed the ugly men’s contest. The judges in the contest were Col. W. K- Clement, Rev. C. M. McKinney and Jake Hanes. These gentlemen could- not readily decide on the prettiest girl and Knox Johnstone had to be called on for assistance. The judges finally selected Miss Vesta May Wilson, of Fork Church, as being the prettiest girl. They were all Dretty and the judges had a hard task to select the pret­ tiest. The judges for the ugly men were Mrs. R- M. Holthouser, Miss Clayton Brown and Mrs. J. A. Daniel. After taking one look at the faces assembled before' them they were quick in deciding f hat Hr. John R.

The better babies contest was held at the high school build­ ing Wednesday afternoon and was largely attended by mothers and babies, There were 168 babies en- ternd in this contest, and the doc­ tors who had to. measure, • weigh and examine these fine \ oungsters had a pretty trying task.

Statesville Merchants Association, in»mt»nnnnnnronnmtmnnwmniwnnnnntnnimnnmnHimmniman» A n O p e n L e t t e r t o t h e E d ito r From the President of General Motors y . ! —/AST.SPRING: I wrote you that my belief in the country, newspaper had led us in General Motors to decide-to. advertise our products together in the small-city press of the country. The returns from the'series of the messages recently ;published have justified, that faith; -and we. shaH cpntinub'Lp Advertise in your community through your newspaper this fall. It occurs to me, however, that some of your readers may . be asking: “What is. General Motors?” and “Why is General Motors?” These are fair-questions and I should like to answer them as frankly as I can. General Motors was organized some years ago on the theory that a group of large com­ panies, working together, could render a better service than they could separately. In this we simply applied to. industry a principle that is as old as civilization as regards the human family and human progress. Original members* of the General Motors family were Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oak­ land and Oldsmobile, together with the Delco- Light Company and other well-known com­ panies manufacturing automotive equipment. By joining together their resources, we were able to establish great-Research Laboratories, a 1245-acre Proving .Ground and the GMAC Plan of credit purchase; to effect vast econ­ omies in purchase and manufacture and distribution; to assure and maintainthequality of every product in the General Motors family. -Has the General Motors family principle proved itself in practice? The best answer, I. think, is to compare the Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile and Oakland of to^a^J^^Whktu^dels .of five or ten years ago. f ,is.- . -y;- Then add Pontiac, a General Motors crea­ tion:' Add LaSalle, another General Motors creation. And then consider how General Motors has developed these cars into a com­ plete line, within which any family may find a suitable quality car at the price it plans to pay: “A Car for Every Purse and Purpose.” Another example is Frigidaire, the electric refrigerator. General Motors had the resources to spend millions to develop a satisfactory refrigerator, and then to apply to its manu­ facture the same processes which have in- ■ creased the utility and lowered the cost of the automobile. .. We believe tljat this record justifies General Motors as an economic institution. Its prod­ ucts are quality products, first, of all. Their prices represent the economies of united effort passed on to tlie purchaser. In the last year one in each .three automobiles chosen by the public has been a General Motors car. The service of Delco-Light electric plants has extended to more than a quarter million homes, while Frigidaire has become the world’s largest sell­ ing convenience of its kind. We believe sdso that the values now offered in the current General Motors products (which , are listed below) prove anew that “many minds are better than one” and that a family of companies, working together, can produce results which are decidedly in the public interest and of increasing benefit to the individual family.

Variable Offer Opportunity for De­ velopment of New Strains for Definite Uses. (Prepared by the TJntted States Department of Agriculture.} AU sweet clovers are variable In their habits of growth, and many in­ dividual plant3 of distinct type and form may be found in nearly any sweet-clover field. This offers an op­ portunity for the development of new strains of sweet clover for definite uses, according to L. W. Kephart, for­ age crop specialist of the United States Department of Agriculture. Better Hay Varieties. There is considerable interest at present in the production of better hay varieties, lie says, since the common street clovers, especially the white- flowered species, are too coarse and heavy to make good liay from the sec­ ond year’s growth. Several good hay varieties have already been developed, notably the early flowering Grundy County, Crystal Dwarf and Early Dwarf varieties of white sweet clover, and the Albotrea and Switzer varie­ ties of yellow sweet clover. Eecently a type of sweet clover bearing many more and finer stems than the com­ mon sorts was found at two of the western Canadian experiment sta­ tions. It resembles alfalfa so closely that it is easily mistaken for that plant. This important discovery will no doubt add a distinct new type of forage plant to the present list. The need for winter-hardy types has been met with the Arctic, or Hansen’s Siberian, a white-flowered variety from western Canada. A sweet clover much better suited than the common sorts to !he cold, dry climate of the northern Great Plains appears to have been developed at the Eedfield (8. D.) field station of the United States De­ partment of Agriculture. On Acid Soils. Several persons are endeavoring to find a sweet clover that will grow on acid soils, lack of lime being a serious hindrance to culture of the crop in many localities. Still others are try­ ing to develop a strain suited to the drought and hot winds of the southern Great Plains. A type of sweet clover that would be exceedingly useful, according to Mr. Kephart, is one that would re­ main green late in the fall, start growth early the next sprang, and re­ main green and in good feeding con­ dition well into the following summer. A number of experimenters, both on farms and at experiment stations, have, approached this type with selec­ tions of common white sweet clover. Perhaps even better results will come from tests now being made with spe­ cies and varieties brought from rEu- rope and eastern Asia, one such spe­ cies this year having remained green six weeks later than any sweet clover heretofore grown. Sweet Clover Doubles Wheat Yield in Dakota J. M. Miller, who farms 1,800 acres In North Dakota, is an enthusiast when it comes to sweet clover. “Sweet clover,” said Mr. Miller, "is the greatest soil builder ever discov- _ered. One year I had a field of wheat Half of this field had been in sweet clover theJ previous season. We took & crop of seed off of it and a large amount of hay, and then plowed the rest under. That part of the field which had been in sweet clover pro­ duced 35 bushels of wheat per acre. The other part produced 12 bushels per acre. The same variety seed was used and other conditions were sim­ ilar- • “We have found that sweet clover will increase the yield of corn or any other crop which follows it. Not only does it add nitrogen to. the soil, but it puts the soil In fine physical con­ dition.” K O « <>•••<>• < > , <>KO»<>*-<>,«-<>*-OK Agricultural Facts ^ go*oK><,< x> so<<>»<>o«>a1Soy beans with com is an insurance against an imperfect stand. • * * Cull the slow-maturing pullets.

Too, the package sells better because it is more attractive. in Eradicating T. B. Many Counties Complete Tuberculin Testing. (Prepared by the Vnltea States Department of Agriculture.) A summary of tuberculosis-eradlca- ,tion work conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture In co-operation with the various states shows excellent results during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1027. An outstanding achievement was the large increase in the number of entire coun­ ties which have completed the tuber­ culin testing of all cattle within their boundaries. The summary of progress shows 347 such counties distributed among 27 states. Thus more than half of the states have one or more such tuberculosis-free counties. The three leading states in this respect are North Carolina with S2 counties on the modified-accredited list, Michigan with 42 and Iowa with 30 such coun­ ties. On July I a total of 17,G00,3S0 cattle in the.United States were under su­ pervision for the eradication of bo­ vine tuberculosis. Besides this num­ ber considerably more than four mil­ lion cattle are on waiting lists and will be tested as soon as the federal, state and county veterinary inspectors complete other work for those owners who signed up earlier for tuberculin testing. The total number of cattle In herds accredited is free from tuberculosis exceeds 1,SS5,000. The work of tu­ berculosis eradication is going for­ ward systematically in all states. Dur­ ing the last month of the fiscal year the inspectors engaged in tuberculin testing applied the test to more than 800,000 cattle, of which approximate­ ly 24,000 were found to be affected with the disease. The removal of such reactors from contact with healthy cattle, followed by the slaugh­ ter of diseased animals under federal inspection, is gradually reducing the extent of bovine tuberculosis through out the country and benefiting both the live-stock industry and public health. Plan for Determining Sex of Guinea Fowls In raising guinea fowls, many ama­ teurs and some not so amateurish, are puzzled when the time comes for mar­ keting, as they find it difficult to select males and females to be re­ tained for breeding purposes. To a casual observer the male and female of the species are Identical in shape, size and plumage. But a closer inspection will reveal that one has a richer color of the neck feathers, its wattles are more plump and firm, and the plumage in general is more com pact. This is the male. The “buck-wheat” call that Is so commonly supposed to come from the male is, in fact, the cry of the female, usually when frightened or excited. She may be further detected by her rougher coat of feathers, and by her wattles which are somewhat pale and shrunken. When guinea fowls are in the prime of condition, as they should be after spending the summer on free range, the difference between the male and female will not be so pronounced as it Is in the early summer, just after mat­ ing time, and one should study the birds carefully to insure a balanced selection .of stock for breeding pur­ poses. Harvest Silage Com When Ears Are Mature When corn is to be harvepfcojJ for silage, It should be cut when the ears are mature but the loaves and stalks are still green. Corn cut and bound to be fed as dry forage should be cut at the same time. It should be al­ lowed to cure in shocks until dry and then hauled in and piled. By this method the ears are mature and well fflled and all of the forage value of the stalks is saved. Com should not be shucked out of the field until it has dried for several weeks, after it'has quit growing. Oth­ erwise the corn will be hard to shuck, will be apt to heat and mold and make poor feed. In shucking from the field it Is a good practice to have a box In which to throw the better ears. These can be specially dried out: and sorted for seed supply If field-selection has not been practiced, or if there is a market for seed corn. .As the corn is shucked out it should be hauled to a crib that is well ventilated, and if possible protected against rats and mice.—Extension Bul­ letin 237-A, Colorado Agricultural Col­ lege. Rye and Wheat Are Good as Spring Soiling Crop For a spring soiling crop, fallrSown rye and wheat are-excellent and are especially adaptable in the North. These can be followed with either bar­ ley or oats for an early summer soil­ ing crop in the North. Sudan grass is, also, an excellent soiling crop for this season, and In the South sorghums and Japanese cane.in particular are probably the best. Sorghums may be cut at two to thre* feet,' but much bet­ ter yields are realized if they are al­ lowed to head. The big need for a soiling crop is in midsummer, however, when pastures are dry. For a short season crop at this time, com is the leader In the corn belt. It is palatable, yields heav­ ily, and remains in good condition over a long period of time. Off to school in a hurry 12 Pt.

Joseph Murgas, pastor of a Slovak congrega­ tion in North Wilkes-Barre, to bring the children of the parish, and all oth­ ers who care to avail themselves of the opportunity, into closer touch with nature, is worthy of special commen­ dation. The pastor, says Nature Maga­ zine, has secured a tract of 30 acres where bird and plant life are to be propagated and encouraged, and all phases of nature fostered for their educational inspirational value.

Then, the treatment of constipation, biliousness, headaches, mental depres­ sion, indigestion, sour stomach, and other indispositions that result from constipation was entirely by means of simple vegetable laxatives, herbs and roots. These are still the basis of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which is a combination of senna and other mild laxative herbs, with pepsin. fiie simpler the remedy for consti­ pation, the safer for the child and for you, and the better for the general health of all.

His eyes made Mary Jjppri furious and shy. It was ridic­ ulous, hut she could not seem to help it. Tlie dinner, whether owing to Ned or Claude-Mary could not really tell which, they both seemed so eminently competent—was delicious. Their table was decorated with flowers, which al­ ways seem doubly rare and precious Ia Venice. Her two men, Mary felt, were the most distinguished in the room. The two men were equally sure that siie was the most attrac­ tive girl in the world. After dinner, and coffee in the lounge, they went up to Claude’s sit­ ting room to talk and smoke. It was a happy evening. In the presence of his daughter, Claude was at his best. Sed, reveling In the fact that Mary was noting every shade of her father’s Ieeling for him, drew Claude out for his daughter’s sake. When "the loveliest evening,” as Mttry told her father, was over and Ciaderella-Mary must fly home, Ned remembered that Claude had never once called him EangeIey that eve­ ning! What a night and a moon to explain under! He hinted, eagerly, that he was ready to take upon his shoulders the duty of seeing Mary home, suggesting tot it would be safer for both Mary and Claude. JIary simply slipped her band into her father’s and looked at him. Ned’s arguments were as noth­ ing. "I guess we’ll risk that, my boy, if Mary wants me," said Claude. Ned stood on the landing steps and watched them move away. Mary had agreed to meet Claude at the Acea- demia at three the nest afternoon. As Claude turned to direct the gon­ dolier, Xed had whispered: “Come twenty minutes earlier—for me." But as the gondola floated away, he wasn't sure that Mary had heard him. When she had said good night, at me doorway of the Royal Danlelll, Msry found it was later than she !bought and with a little apprehensive teeling went directly to her own room, n ^ 'f6 was a light stiu burning in °u.vs room, and reluctantly Mary 0Pened the door between their rooms Md looked in.

He wants to take care of us both.” “How like Claude,” Polly sneered. “Take care of us both behind the gro­ cery shop. I suppose.” “Oh Mother! How can you? He seems perfectly capable of taking care of any number of people. I trust liftn.” “I do not,” her mother snapped. “We’ll leave tomorrow.” Mary came to the bed and looked at her mother. To Polly Johnston, Mary seemed suddenly older, and different. Who shall say how little, or how much, a kiss may alter a maiden’s character and outlook on life? “Mother, I won’t run away again. If you can’t stay and face facts—and Father, you will have to leave me be­ hind to do it.” There was a long look between those who had been mother and daughter only a moment ago, and were now two women of different ages measuring each other like opponents. It was Polly who spoke first, and though her voice was not raised, Mary shivered, for never had her mother /1 feel the same toward you, Mother, but I never will!” She was gone. ' The door closed be­ hind her before Polly could get to her feet. She started to follow her, and then stood still, breathing fast. JVhat could she do? If she refused Loren Rangeley and his money, what had she to fall back on but C. M. Dabbs? That night Mary ’ cried herself to sleep. “Mary, Was It Claude Whc Toid You to Keep Me in Ignorance?” spoken like that before. “Very well then, we stay. You can see all you want of your father, openly.” “And you?” Polly Johnston laughed. “You are not the only one who can keep a secret” She pushed the canopy aside and reached for a telegraph blank and her fountain pen on the table beside her bed. “I shall wire Loren Rangeley in Paris, tonight” “Loren Rangeley in Paris!” Mary went white, started to speak again and turned away. Polly Johnston, beginning to write her message, looked up eagerly to see if the girl would weaken. It was the first time they had ever pitted their wills against each other, and it was distinctly unpleasant. She wished to Heaven they had not started this, or that the child would give In, instead of standing there white and .des­ perate. "Mother,” Mary was facing her, and though there were tears behind her eyes, her voice was steady. “You know I hate Loren Rangeleyv He’s the coldest, hardest man I know, and if you—if you divorce my father—to marry him, for his money—I’ll try to CHAPTER XIII In the morning, having breakfasted in their respective rooms, as was their custom, Mary, dressed for the street, came to her mother’s door. At the., sight of Mary’s pale face, Polly’s heart misgave her. Sbe knew that her own face was pale, but she was able to say, in the chilliest of tones: “if you have made any plan to meet your father this morning, I will cot interfere.” “No,” Mary answered in a tone equally lifeless. ’’We do not meet until three o’clock, at the AccaOemia.’’ “In that case, suppose we go to the church of San Zaccaria this morning. I want to see the Gelilni Madonna there, and we can walk." It had all the appearance of a pleas­ antly idle morning. Though Polly held her head high, she was suffering. The Polly Johnston, who smiled faintly at any remark and stared unflinchingly into the fierce Italian sunlight, was a woman fighting desperately against a terrified realization of what loneli­ ness might mean to a middle-aged woman who had not looked ahead or contemplated it. A hundred times that morning Polly was ready to cry quarter; ready for any compromise that would leave her her Mary. Claude Dabbs might have guessed something of Polly’s plight and been sorry. He had fought his own fight, and come through it whole, like the sturdy soul he was. Had Polly but known it, here, in Venice, was a Claude who was actuated by no small, revengeful feelings, but moved only by a real and very friendly desire to help, and also to share Mary. But Polly, shuddering at the thought of lonely years without Mary’s compan­ ionship, turned away with equal dis­ taste from the. thought of sharing Mary, and the grocery shop, with Claude. How could Mary conceive that her mother, so long distrustful and scorn­ ful of any emotion save the maternal, could turn with relief to the thought of cold, circumspect Loren Rangeley, as contrasted with the Claude she re- membered. Claude represented to Polly all the primitive emotions, with the disagreeable background of a shop, j Not having seen Claude for twenty- odd years, she created an image of a fat, middle-aged grocer with the un­ controlled emotions of a young man. Always there was that shop in the background, and the image caused her. to shudder. "If you wish to dine with your father tonight, I shall not mind,” she said to Mary as they turned toward the hotel and luncheon. “Be reasonable, Mother,” Mary rleaded. “Don’t make me feel I’ve lost my mother because I’ve found my father.” Having made up her mind, Polly was one to carry things through gaily. “I’m afraid it will work out that way, but, of course, I’ve nothing to do with i t ” “You have everything!” protested Mary vehemently, “It’s ail In your hands. Don’t you see that F ath er- well, he just can’t—unless you give some sign.” Polly’s laugh did not ring pleasantly in her daughter's ears. “Claude Dabbs has been stating his case rather cleverly, I see.” Mary stood still on the bridge lead­ ing to their hotel, regardless of the crowd of chattering, staring Italians who were passing by. “Oh Mother, you don’t get Father at all. He doesn’t think he has any case. He thinks he must leave it to you. He feels he can’t bring liimself to your attention. Mother, it’s awfully—delicate of him. You must see that.” “I only see- that he is taking you from me, and I can see neither del­ icacy, nor any other evidence of good feeling in the process. Since it has to be endured, I’ll endure, bat I’m not kissing the hand that deals the blow. You will please discontinue the dis­ cussion,, as long as you are in public, unless you can control yourself.” For the hundredth time that day poor Mary wondered why it was that those who loved one most, could, and did, so surely wound one. “I wasn't really going to cry, but if you will pre­ tend to look at the boats for a mo­ ment, I’ll pull myself together.” • (TO BE CONTINUED.) Poetic Imagery That Fixes Idea of Places A memorial to Milton has been un­ veiled in the place which he made famous by his words “Thick as au­ tumnal leaves that strew the brooks in Vailombrosn.” Today the trees of Vallombrosa are mainly pines, an d . the “autumnal leaves” that fall from the few beeches and chestnuts scarcely seem sufficient­ ly numerous to carry out the Mil­ tonic idea of multitude. But the quo­ tation is not likely to become any less popular on that account, and, in the minds of all lovers of poetry, the woods of Vallombrosa will remain thick-carpeted with leaves. It would also be of interest to trace the in­ fluence of the poets on our ideas of- places. Thanks to Byron, Chillon is forever associated with a dungeon; and a famous ...sonnet of Keats has linked Darien with a sea view from a mountain. “Maxwellton braes” will always be bonnie. and the. name of Afton will conjure up the vision of a peaceful stream gliding softly among green hills. These ideas may be truth­ ful or the reverse—it doesn’t matter. We shall never be able to rid our­ selves of them. Saves Postal Time .

INTERMEDIATE AND SBlIOR TOP­IC—Standing for God Against the Crowd.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—The Courage of Conviction. I. Elijah's Message to Ahab (vv. 17, 18). JVlien Jezebel became the wife of King Ahab, she waged a savage war­ fare against God’s prophets, killing all she could find, and thus seeking to abolish the true religion and set up Idolatry instead. Elijah suddenly ap. peared, announcing the suspension of moisture (I Kings 17:1) as a judg­ ment upon the people for their idol­ atry. He sounded three striking notes in his message: 1. “As the Lord God of Israel Iiv- eth.” He knew that he represented the living God, therefore did not fear to come into the presence of the king. 2. “Before whom I stand.” His standing before God Indicated his con­ stant readiness to go on His errands. 3. “There shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.” This suspension of moisture continued for three and a half years, and rain came In answer to Elijah’s prayer (Jas. 5:17). II. A Challenge to Baal Worship (I Ivings 18:17-40). As soon as Elijah had delivered his message concerning the drought, he retired from the king’s sight 1. Elijah shows himself to Ahab (w. 17,18). (1) Abab’s question (v. 17). His aim in this question was no. doubt to intimidate Elijah. (2) Elijah’s answer (v. IS). He de­ nied the charge and boldly declared that the calamity which had befallen the nation was caused by the idolatry of Ahab and his family. 2. The bold challenge (vv. 19-24). (I) The people assemble (vv. 19,20). At the urgent request of Elijah the king convened the people. I (2) The ringing call to decision (vv. 21-24). a. The question asked (v. 21). Many of the people had not ■wholly, forsaken God. They attempted to worship both God and Baal. b. The silence- of the people (v. 21). This may have been because of fear of the king or ignorance, for many were of the opinion that to be religious was the only thing necessary, irrespective of tlie being worshiped, c. The meth­ od of decision (vv. 22-24). Two sac­ rifices were to be provided, one to be offered to Baal, the other to God. 3. The test applied (w . 25-39). (1) Offering by the prophets of Baal (vv. 25-29). Elijah, gave the prophets of Baal the first opportunity to prove whether Baal was a real God. (2) The Offering by Elijah (w . SO­ BS). a. The people invited near (v. 30). His object in inviting the people was to see clearly in order that they might grasp the genuineness of the test b, The altar repaired (w . 30-32).. Eli­ jah took twelve stones, representing the united nation, c. The offering on the altar (vv. 33-35). After the bul- lock-was in place he had four barrels of water three times emptied upon Qie sacrifice and the wood so as to fill the trench about the altar. So sure was Elijah that God’s power was sufficient that he heaped difficulty upon diffi­ culty. d. Elijah’s prayer (vv. 36, 37). This was a model prayer, (a) It was based upon covenants (v. 86). All real prayer rests upon covenant relation­ ships. (b) Its object was God’s exal­ tation (v. 36). Elijah was jealous for God’s glory, but the only thing that he asked for himself was to be known as God’s servant (c) It was for the salvation of the people (v. 37). e. The result (vv. 38, 39). (a) The Are of the Lord fell and consumed, not only the sacrifice, but the wood, stones and dust, eveii' licking up the water in the trenches, (b) The people fell on their faces and confessed that the Lord was the God. 4. The execution of Baal’s projfflets (v. 40). Israel’s government was a theocracy. God was their king. Idol­ atry was treason against the King. These false prophets were traitors to God and therefore should die. 5. Elijah vindicated (w. 41-16). The proof that Elijah was God’s prophet was incomplete until rain came. III. Elijah Taken Up Into Heaven (II Kings 2:1-15). Not only was the prophet vindicated In that the offering was consumed and rain came, but God took him to Him­ self when his work was done.

Henceforth pictures of the victims may not be published nor may suicide stories appear on the front page of any Con­ stantinople paper. AU that is to b.e allowed will be a brief statement in case of suicide on an inside page.

SM ALL BO Y FORCED TO ST A Y IN KENNEL Child Found Tied to Stake, With Dog Companion. Greensburg, Pa.—Strapped to a stake to prevent him from wandering away, four-year-old Charles Garland was housed in a dog kennel for two weeks, it was revealed with the filing of a complaint, charging cruelty, against Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Stein- man, who live near GrapevilleK West­ moreland county, Roy Hallam, humane agent, found the child, suffering from exposure, in the kennel in the back yard oil the Steinman home. A dog was the child’s company. Investigating, Hallam found. Mrs. TillIe Lovell, the child’s mother, in the Steinman house. Mrs. Lovell said her husband had deserted her six months ago and she returned to the Steinmans, to whom she is related. They gave shelter to her and her three-year-old son, Henry Lovell, but refused, she said, to have anything to do with the Garland child, her son by a former marriage. The Steinmans forced her, she said, to keep the elder boy strapped to the post and would not permit her to bring him Into the house. The boy had no attention aside from water and food she was able to carry him surreptitiously, Mrs. Lovell said. Race Against Death W on by Fishermen Wildwood, Fla.—A race with death was won by fishermen who reached shore in time to save the life, of a companion in whose hand had been imbedded a deadly poison spine from the whipltke tail of a deadly stingaree. The victim of the dreaded fish was Charles Falk, of Wildwood. Falk, em­ ployed aboard a fishing boat, was bailing out nets that were heavily laden. He and others would draw nets over the side so that fish poured upon the deck. In that way a stingaree was shaken from the seine and as it went through the air it lashed out its whiptail, bury­ ing the spine, as deadly as the fangs of a rattlesnake, deep into the engi­ neer’s hand. A tourniquet was applied and twisted tight with a belaying pin, and full speed was made for the fishing pier. Members of the crew assisted Falk ashore and then pressed into service the automobile of one of the anglers on the pier and raced to the hospital, where prompt treatment prevented further spread of the poison. Sleeping Man Slain by Dynamite Charge Mauch Chunk, Pa--Joseph Bene­ dictine Bulat, thirty-five, said to be wealthy, was killed when dynamite was exploded under him. The explo­ sive was concealed under a lounge on the front porch of Bulat’s, home at New Columbus, and a fuse was laid from the outside of the house. Bulat was lying on the lounge and was de­ capitated. No theory has been advanced by the poliefe for the explosion. Old Horse Kills Man Leading It to Grave Atlantic City, N. J.—A sixty-eight- Vear-old farmer, Henry Ang of Lin- wood, was kicked to death by a thirty- two-year-old horse, which he was lead­ ing to the grave he had dug for it The horse kicked Ang in the stomach.

J R E C O R D , M O C K S V I L L E , N . C , TREASURE IS FOUNP ■ BY INDIAN’S DREAM Ancient Pagan Tem ple In Mexican W ilds Revealed. Mesico City. — A dream-guided search for treasure by the descendants of an ancient chieftain who fought against Cortez has ended most amaz­ ingly in the discovery of one of the 1 most splendid temples yet known of the pagan gods of pre-Hispanlc Mex­ ico, dedicated to Camnxtli, the chief god of the Tlascala nation before the conquest. Dr. Eduardo Noguera, inspector of the department of archelogy of the ministry of education, investigated the discovery at Tizatlan for the Mex­ ican government and conducted sys­ tematic excavations there. He states that the Indians of the town claim that one of their number, Panfilo San­ chez, is a descendant of Xicotencatl, former lord of TizatIan and one of the rulers of the Tlaxcala nation and a bitter adversary of Cortez. This Sanchez declared that Xicotencatl himself appeared to him in a dream and revealed the whereabouts of his hidden treasure. Other Indians, believing In the vision, went with l’anfilo to the des­ ignated spot to dig. They came upon prehistoric ruins and In their thirst for treasure cleared away a large amount of earth in two weeks. Walls of a temple and beautiful polychrome frescoes appeared, and the fame of the discovery spread throughout the state of TIaxcala and into Mexico City. Government authorities were sent to investigate and the amateur excavation was stopped. Temple on Crest of Hill. The temple remains are on the crest of a hill overlooking the Indian village of Tizatlan and are under the ruins of an old Christian church be­ lieved to have been built by Cortez after the destruction of the heathen temple more than 400 years ago. r The ruins belong to the Aztec cul­ ture. Dr. Reygadas Vertiz, director of the department of archeology under the ministry of education, says that the find is one of the most Important of recent times because the buildfng contains polychrome fresco paintings considered to be real codices, or his­ torical records in symbolic picture form. The picture writings may form an important link in piecing together the story of Mexico before the dis­ covery of America. True codices are found on very few Aztec ruins, Doctor Reygadas sayr. Most of the codices now In existence are on maguey paper, made from the fiber of a common Mexican plant, and are in European .museums. Even of these but few are left, because the conquerors and the missionaries who followed them destroyed all the tem­ ples, idols and written records of the native races in their zeal to convert them to Christianity. Here and there a strip of picture writing was secretly saved as a souvenir or sent to Europe as a curiosity. After several centuries had passed their historical value was recognized and those few remnants found their way into collections and museums. * Colored Symbols Unearthed. A floor about eighteen feet wide and thirty-seven feet long has now been excavated, and the rectangular space was found to be perfectly ori­ entated with the cardinal points. On this space stand two raised stone plat­ forms, both beautifully ornamented with brilliantly colored symbols. Among t‘ ; figures are some that are easily recognized, such as the water sign and the death sign. On the short vertical ends of the platforms are canals that divide the walis into two equal parts. Because of the constant repetition of the death sign and the water sign, which in this case could also be interpreted as the blood sign, it is believed that these slabs were sacrificial altars and that the canals served to lead away the blood. The most beautiful figure on the frescoes is that of the god Camax- ■tli, and for that reason it is believed that the temple was built in his honor.. Petting Place Was Poison Ivy Garden St. Paul, Minn.—This is the sorrow- ' ful tale that Is whispered wherever summer session students gather on the Minnesota university campus. Two romantic young things, the boy about twenty and the girl n®t more than eighteen, came down from the northern part of Minnesota where Vines are vines and not poison ivy. Before the advent of the decorative spotlights there had been plenty of places for a little quiet necking. But all that was changed. Then one morning he got a bright Idea. Every day going to his classes he passed a perfectly luscious looking garden. Cool and green, all vines and ferns, it was inclosed by a high picket fence. Of course, it had a warning sign on the gate, but then he ueither read nor believed In signs. That' very night he mysteriously conducted the girl to the garden. She was charmed with the spot She told him that she would never forget the night and the garden and, of course, him. And she never will. . The following morning both their faces were broken out with a rash , that closely resembled that produced by poison ivy. The gar­ den was filled with poisonous plants for the use.of the.medical. students in their reseat ch work.. V IO L E T R A YS G OOD F O R S IC K M O N K E Y S Valuable Zoo Animals Ar® Restored to' Health. New York.—How ultraviolet radi­ ation, used on sick humans, saved the lives of five valuable and desper­ ately 111 animals in the New York zoological park is told by Dr. Charles V. Noback of the department of com­ parative medicine. His furry patients consisted of a red howling monkey, a grlvet mon­ key and three lemurs, which are small animals belonging to the same order as monk.eys but lower in- the evolutionary scale. They are all expensive animals and their threatened death from “cage paralysis,” which is a disease very similar to rickets in human beings, was regarded by the zoo authorities as a genuine calamity. When they had reached a state in which they re­ fused all food and could hardly move, Doctor Noback was called In. The helplessness of the animals at the outset simplified the treatment. Doctor Nobacli simply placed his quartz-tube mercury vapor lamp be­ hind their bowed and immobile backs and turned on the current, without needing to tie or constrain them in any way. , The treatment was kept up for a month, in the case of the red howling monkey, and from three to four weeks with the others. In all cases the stiffness and decrepitude that mark the disease in its extreme stages soon disappeared, the eyes became bright again, the hair glossy and the pa­ tients displayed a manifest renewal of their interest in food. Doctor Noback notes that the doses of the rays to which he subjected the. hair-covered skins of his animals were much more intense than those intend­ ed for the bare skin of a human being. For this reason he had to be care­ ful about hairless and nonpigmented areas, such as the region around the eyes, to avoid producing severe sun­ burn. INHERITS MILLIONS/ STAYS A HOME BODY Sweets Growing M ore Popular in Am erica Washington.—Fathers and mothers seem to be getting more indulgent in the United States, or else the fathers and mothers themselves are consum­ ing more candy, chewing gum and ice cream, because the production of these three children’s favorites is set­ ting new altitude records nearly ev­ ery year. The Commerce depart­ ment’s census of manufactures dis­ closes tremendous increases which small boys will find hard to believe. Comparing 1914 figures with those for 1925, the following was set forth: The nation now produces $47,838,- OOO wovth of chawing gum, compared with the pre-war figure of $17,000,000, and the product still sells for a nickel a package. The ice cream bill Is $2S6,175,6SG a year, compared with $55,983,133 in 1914. Candy costs $379,081,411, compared with $153,685,523 in 1914. This present bill of $700,000,000 or more—about $35 annually per small boy—if small boys got, all of It— doesn’t represent all the money spent by dad and sister’s sheik, either, for these figures are wholesale prices. Retail prices will boost these three industries into the $1,000,000,000-a- year figure, experts believe. The increases are variously attrib­ uted to prohibition, advertising, in­ creasing export trade, and the at­ tempt of the factories to catch up with the appetites of small boys and high school girls. Better Than Chimes Seattle, Wash.—An offer to buy chimes for a large church being fin­ ished here was turned down by Its pastor, who replied that bells are out of date. A well-planned newspaper ad­ vertisement announcing the Sunday features, he contends/will draw more folks to church than noisy chimes and at the same time hot disturb those who habitualy sleep late on the Sab­ bath. W hy the Big Stamps A re Not V ery Popular New York.—Refusal of the public to expend the energy and time needed to moisten and afllx njarge stamp.is given by;post-,, office officials as one reason for the falling off In the demand for the new.2-cent stamps celebrat­ ing the surrender of General Burgoyne. Sales of the Burgoyne stamp, together with a stamp commem­ orating the battle of Benning­ ton, have fallen off since they first went before the public on August . 5. The Bennington stamp Is of ordinary , size, while the Burgoyne stamp is oblong, the shape of the special delivery stamp. The drop In demand for the Burgoyne issue has been more marked than that for the Bennington. > “Professional and - ■ amateur collectors and dealers bought both In large quantities in the first week” said., Edward P. Russell, cashier; of the post officeT “Then the demand fell off. Business houses do not like to buy large stamps because of the ■ extra work involved In !$j * stamping letters.”,- d W ealth Doesn’t A lter L ife of In a McEachran. Detroit, Mich.—In the midst of the old-fashioned “back yard” behind the big, gray frame house at 1996 Ferdi­ nand avenue is a cherry tree. The cherries were hanging thick among its leaves, red and sweet, but just a little overripe, their skins just a wee bit lined, cherries that some one should have picked some time before. You see, millions of dollars have come tumbling down into that'old- fashioned garden/into the lap of Ina Cecil McEachran, niece of Arthur T. Walker. No more incongruous figure to handle millions than the twenty-six- year-olff'lieiress can well be Imagined. As the only child of her mother, Mrs. Susan McEachran, she falls heir to a sixth of the thirty to fifty million dol­ lar estate left by the late secretary to Edward F. Searles. “Isn’t Bad Looking.” For nearly ten years the McEachran family lived in the house on Ferdi­ nand. They were and are “quiet” people. Ina was a home body. She seldom went anywhere except to church, to the little neighborhood mo- tion-picture house, and for rides in the little, Inexpensive car that was the pride of father and daughter. There were no beaus, no dances; Ina does not approve of dancing very much. “She isn’t bad looking.” So the neighbors describe the heir­ ess. At times she wears glasses. She is plump and does not move too brisk­ ly. Every evening has found her at home alone. She never made friends with the neighbors. In fact, as a re­ sult of a fence dispute between the mother and one set of neighbors there existed the “we do not speak” situa­ tion. Same Old Routine. There was a brother, but he died a couple of years ago after a long ill­ ness. Ina was his nurse for much of that period. For a period she was employed in the offices of the Michi­ gan Central railway. The family came to Detroit from Jackson. The father, R. B. McEach- ran, is an employee of the D. U. R. and is as quiet in bis habits as the girl. And now into their placid exist­ ence comes tumbling the millions, the magic wand to materialize yachts and palaces. But life hasn’t changed a bit as yet. Ina, the heiress, wound the clock, pulled down the shades, swept the floor and prepared the dinner as usual. In- the morning she got up, cooked a breakfast and drove her little old car away. Same neat, simple dress, same little hat, same old routine. Flying K itten Has Its Own Parachute Pittsburgh.—Birdie, the flying kit­ ten mascot of Kenneth Curley Love- joy, air mail pilot, never goes up for a flight without her own little para­ chute. Birdie is a general favorite with all the flyers at Bettis field, Pitts­ burgh’s airport. Lovejoy explained that he selected her as a mascot be­ cause she had a jet black nose, “and you know that's sure good luck." The kitten seemed to enjoy her first flight so, Lovejoy decided to take her along regularly. The code of the air, however, calls for all occupants of a ship to have parachutes, and when it’s impossible for all to have the safety devices, then no one on the plane wears one. Lovejoy had his regular parachute, so he decided that Blrdle must have ?one, and he manufactured a small- 'sized parachute for the kitten. She is taken with the pilot on virtually all of his air voyages, whether with mail or passengers, and on each trip she wears her emergency landing gear strapped to her back. “We haven’t had to jump, yet,” and the airmen, "hut when we do, we are going to be all set, and Birdie Is going down with me..” Gam bler’s Card 6,000 Years O ld Is Found London.—Scraped of the mud of many centuries, a tablet dug up at Ur of the Chaldees reveals a gam­ bler’s score card at least 6,000 years' old. The tablet with other trophies taken from Ur, 140 miles southeast of Baby­ lon, the birthplace in Mesopotamia of Abraham, is now on exhibit at the British museum where It was, brought by C. Leonard Woolley, head of the expedition. Recognized gamblers of about 4,000 ,B. C. were honored by a. notice on their tombstones .Immortalizing their achievements. Tablets have been dis­ covered which were used as card ta­ bles, and also a number of playing pieces. Card sharks trying now to recon­ struct the game as A was played by the ancients have concluded that some of the plays approximated the “red and black” of the modem roulette table. : Alternate and interfitting triangles were used for the “chances,” the colors to be backed -being mother of /pearl and pure red made from a paste.

He says London pays $5,- 600,000 annually for "unnecessary noises.” _ ' ■■■■’. ■. ■ ■ BOOST FOR DR. JIMMIE’S HOSPITAL (© by P. J. Walsh.) M r s . w a in w r ig h t h o s ie r was having one of her it-ells, a fact telepathlcally com­ municated to all of her neighbors by the general air of gloom about the house and by the fact that her next-door neighbor, Mrs. Tom Parker, was hurrying her six children out to play in order that she might wait upon the invalid. Every one said it was a shame the way a wealthy woman like Mrs. Mosierj im­ posed upon a poor creature like Mrs. Parker. . „“This time it’s serious, Carrie moaiied Mrs. Mosier on this special occasion from the depths of her lav­ ender plush davenport. “Everything always comes to a climax with me. I’ve said it time and time again. Poor dear Wain understood and he warned me—” Mrs. Hosier sniffed audibly into a violet-scented handkerchief. “Anything but a tumor, Carrie, any­ thing but a tumor! It’s what I’ve been dreading all these years and you know what one dreads is bound to come, Carrie.” “Don’t you worry now, Miss’ Ho­ sier.” “I wouldn’t be half so frightened, Carrie, if I were in the city where I would get the proper medical care. If I should have to call a doctor in this little suburban town I know I’d just naturally pass away.” Her tragic tones had diminished to a whisper at the terrible thought. “If* Wain were only here,” rose In cres­ cendo. “Everybody says the new doctor, Jimmie Taylor, is a fine young fel­ low, Miss’ Hosier.” “Any doctor who would let people call him Jimmie can’t be of much account. Whoever heard of such a thing! I’m feeling worse, Carrie.” “Do let me make you a nice cup of tea.” “Tea’ll only make it worse. Put your hand there on my stomach and see if you don’t feel a terrible big lump.” Mrs. Parker felt obediently, placing a large wrinkled hand tenderly on the spot indicated. Suddenly over her thin, placid face there passed a look of alarm. “You feel it, Carrie?” Mrs. Mosier’s chin quivered and she ran her hands wildly through her carefully mar­ celled hair. “I do, Miss’ Hosier.” “Call that Jimmie doctor quick. I knew it would come, and here, of all places! To think I should have to be operated upon here by a know- nothing doctor! Oh, I don’t dare to think!” frantically holding her side and her temples alternately. And then for the first time in her life, Mrs. Hosier fainted. Dr. Jimmie Taylor arrived prompt­ ly in his built-over car in response to Mrs. Parker’s tremulous call. With the assistance of Mrs. Parker, he got Mrs. Hosier safely into the car with him. When Mrs. Hosier whimpered that she would die if Mrs. Parker did not come, too, that kindly soul scram­ bled into the back seat After a few wheezy coughs they were merrily on their way to the hospital—merrily so far as the doctor was concerned. “Fix you up In no time!” said he, grinning. Mrs. Hosier resented the grin, but since she must lean on some one, she felt a certain sense of security in a doctor’s presence. It was a well-known fact that Dr. Taylor’s hospital was not run on a paying basis. The suburbanites pre­ ferred the city hospitals and special­ ists. Still Dr. Taylor was canny and full of hope. He knew that if he could persaude one of the social lead­ ers in the little town to come as a patient to the hospital, the precedent would be all that would be necessary. But thus far his most enthusiastic cases had been charity cases. Today, as he sped toward the hospital with his wealthy charge, his heart was light He would at least have a chance to prove his theory and his worth. “Don’t leave me for a minute, Car­ rie,” Mrs. Hosier pleaded as they as­ sisted her out of the car. “But the children—” began Mrs. Parker. • ‘Don’t you worry about them, my dear. You need a rest from your household as much as I need you near me. If I have to stay In the hospital, you’re going to stay right here with me. Mrs. Sims would be only too glad to earn a little extra money taking care of them. PU pay all the exprases and you’ll get a well- deserved rest” "I agree with Mrs. Hosier,” the doc-: tor interposed heartily. “You’ll do good all around if you do as Mrs. Hosier says.” “Thank you, doctor,” Mrs. Mosier said in a different tone from that she had used with ■ him before, and for the first time she looked straight into his fine, sensitive eyes. Mrs. Hosier went through her ex­ amination in a state of nervous ex­ citement AU of her, weak spots were relentlessly ferreted out and marked down imposingly, on a chart. The doctor made no reply, to her many questions. The cool, white-clad, nurse was as enigmatic as a sphinx How­ ever, after what seemed hours of torture and proddings to Mrs. Hosier, Dr. Jimmie Taylor helped her to a sitting posture, looked her straight In the eyes and told her that the sooner she submitted to an operation the better. H iere was something about this serious, young doctor that robbed her of a ll' command. IVain would have liked him, she thought, as she meekly intrusted her hope for an earthly future into his slim, young hands. Close upon the heels of the deci­ sion, the family counselor puffed up the steps , to attend to the good lady’s last will and testament, and no less a personage than the archbishop him­ self, who happened to be visiting in the suburb at the time, administered the last sacrament. ' “She is completely anaesthetized, doctor,” the nurse at Mrs. Mosier’s head announced crisply as she held the limp hand and counted the slow pulse beat. “Lift the mask,” the doctor com­ manded in a sharp tone as he passed his hand for the second time indig­ nantly . over Mrs. Mosier’s torso. "Doctor!” the young nurse ques­ tioned In spite of her training, “are you quite all right?” "Yes,” he answered tersely to the two nurses and the hospital assistant who drew nearer. Then, pointing to the prostrate Mrs. Mosier, he added, “And so is she, See,” he continued, his voice rising in spite of his efforts to control it, “this woman here was suffering from a nerve congestion in her abdomen and all she needed was the complete relaxation afforded by the ether to relieve it. Don’t smile, he interposed sadly upon seeing their unsuppressed grins, “it is no smiling matter for this hospital. If it wasn’t against my principles, I’d go Shead and operate anyway,” and ho chucked his instruments into their cases. “Take her back to her room and don’t say a word of this to any one, yet.” He then flung himself out of the room, almost falling over the trembling and speechless Mrs. Parker who had been waiting prayerfully in the hallway. “It’s all right,” he flung back at her as she half ran down the corridor and disappeared through one of the many white doorways. When Mrs. Mosier came from un­ der the influence of the ether she was hardly prepared for the amazing rev­ elation that Dr. Taylor made to her. The wonderstruck Carrie was scarce­ ly less impressed as she sat down on the clean white hospital cot sur­ rounded by bouquets of gorgeous flowers. Mrs. Mosier listened dumbly while Carrie confirmed the news. Fi­ nally the patient grasped the situa­ tion by the forelock. "Does any one know of this, doc­ tor?” “No one except those present in the operating room and they have promised silence until they know your wishes,” he replied deferentially, a gleam of hope breaking through his well-concealed despair. Mrs. Wainwright Mosier was silent a moment, studying Carrie’ with al­ most maternal compassion; then her gaze wandered over the flowers, and lastly to the notes of consolation and cheer on the table beside the bed. “I’ve never broken my word yet, doctor,” she said Impressively, the hint of a twinkle In her eyes, “And I’m too thankful In my good fortune to start in doing It now. There is no woman in this town who needs a rest as bad as Carrie, there," she raised her plump hand to silence a coming protest from Mrs. Parker. ‘Besides, I wouldn’t want this joke on me to get out, so Carrie and I will stay hens a couple of weeks and enjoy our­ selves, if you don’t mind. Nobody need ever know the difference. It will do your hospital good just to have people look at a patient like me. What do you say?” “Amen,” breathed Dr. Jimmie Tay­ lor, and caught her outstretched hand warmly between his own. ALWAYS tired ta ttss ss s- table Gampound (Lansing, Michigan —.“t t,* Lydia E.

P* Ije Though the moon is only about one- quarter the diameter of the earth, its surface features are on a scale so grand as to dwarf much of our earth scenery. Near the lunar south pole, for ex­ ample, Professor Pickering pointed out the Liebnitz range of mountains. “By measuring the shadows cast by these peaks we find that some of them rise from 25,000 to 30,000 feet above the plain,” he said. The earth has Mount Everest as Its highest peak, 29,141 feet altitude and the earth is several times larger than the moon. If our terrestrial moun­ tains were proportioned to the same scale as the lunar heights we would have peaks rising from ten to fifteen miles above'the sea. . On an even vaster scale are some of the volcanic craters which p it. the moon. “The crater Newton measures 143 miles In length by 69 miles In width,’’ said Professor Pickering, . “and is 24,000 feet deep.- There are many lunar craters of more than 50 miles’ diameter. The largest crater Imown on the earth, the Volcano Bay, in northern Japan, measures only 35 miles In diameter, but it is very ex­ ceptional, for the next largest terres­ trial crater is but 15 miles across.”—■ Prof. W.
