The German fleet that was scut tled at Scapa Flow is to be raised, cut up, and sold for junk. The Chinese buy thousands of tons of our daily newspapers each year and use them for wrapping purposes. Hazing will be permitted at the University of California, provided the hazers observe the rule rules of good sportmanship. William Allen White in the Em poria Gazette, says, “Until the farmer has learned the organization game, the game that fixes the prices and gives up its independence for the right to prosper, the game that all the world has learned in the last 200 years, the farmer’s cake is dough.” Speed in travel appeals to the Chinese and thousands of Chinese take joy rides simply for pleasure. I It is no uncomon thing for a poor coolie to spend his last “cash” on an automobile ride that leaves him strand ed many miles from home. He is glad to trudge back complacently and is satisfied in his own mind that his mon ey has been well spent. Bootleggers of New York City are • offering for sale, at one dollar a col lection, photographs of all prohibition agents stationed in the metropolis. • The wary bar tender, after carefully - examining the pictures on the circu it lar, can easily guard against arrest. ■ Circulars are kept up to date and sub- I scribers are supplied with photo ■ graphs of new agents, or informed of 5 any transfers on the force. I Edward W. Edwards, of Cincinnati, 1 says, “The bigger you are than your work, the easier you will find it, and B the swifter will be your progress in K it. Certainly others will be attracted E to help you along, or buy whatever | you may have to sell in goods or ser- R vices, in the measure that you are an all-round human being—big, broad, and kindly—and not simply a machine as a man always becomes, who per i mits his work to master him.” PITTSBORO MARKET REPORT.
