A DEAR UTTLE DOG. - ??
ELECTRIC CHAIR FOR "FENCES"
In old age, as their, hold on life
becomes feeble, fnen turn to an
other world and future life. Sir
Oliver Lodge, a scientist and an
old man, is criticized by fellow
members of the Royal Society
becau.se of his belief in spiritu
alism. In a dignified reply Sir
Oliver offers to resign from the
society, if his presence there is
not wanted.
Instead of criticizing him , his
fellow scientists should respect his
belief that sapplies. consolation.
Perhaps, when all the scientist*
of the Royal Society die, and meet
Sir Oliver Lodge, somewhere else,
they will know that his ideas were
as ticur the truth thqir own. ?
The Princess Murat is selling
fine dresses for a living. Her
.friends weep for her but need not
weep. Her fate would be described
,^.by Mr. Xbrahi\n}^jLincoln Erlanger
"as "fifty-fffty." Having spent the
first .part of her life buying and
weUfTng expensive .dresses, *he
will spend the second part selling
them to ladies that still have their
money, The Princess will find
mote real interest in salesmanship .
than in merely wearing line
feathers.
The fox that catches a peacock
has ? ' interesting - life ' than
the peacock spreading its tail
feathers' in the sunshine.

* graduates when they marry have
few -children,- many of them no ;
children.
The number of children Har
vard nlarria ge* increases steadily
and the number of homes* where
there are children diminishes
steadily.
This doesn't mean that educa
tion reduces fertility. It means
that the prosperous class are pro
vided with birth control informa
tion, forbidden to the poor.. '? '
A charming lady? an American
?comes from "Europe "carrying: a
sweet little four-pound black and
tan dog? a refined, elegant little
dog. Jt wore a silk hood on its
head, a little flannel jacket but
toned tightly around its stomach
and chest, a cloak of war/ wool, a
. nice little handkerchief, . used by ,
the maid to wipe its nose and
eyes. It had gloves, or shoes, of
the finest kid for its four ? little
feet. Once in a while it must run
around on the ground and niijrht
hurt its toes. ' The kid prevents
that.
This well-cared-for dog costs,
the lady says,* about $4 ,000 a year
for upkeep.
Fathers bringing up a family on I
$2,500 a year or less are invited
by earnest radicals to think and
roar about this. There is no need
of roarings
Some that are too rich must
be foolish with their MONEY,
as many that are too poor. are ex
tremely foolish with their TIME!"**
The owner - the little dog
woufd probably waste the money
on lierself, if she didn't spend ' it
or. the dog. What difference does
it make, whether the money is j
wasted on the black ami tan, or
the -tody ? .
It is possible to be vqo con
Si vinci ng. Macario Timon, head of a
"Satanic Mysftic Orde^f Lucifer,"
said he possessed magic i
stone" with which he worked won- !
ders. There were no wonders, pf I
course, and no majcic stone. Uut
r his, foolish followers didn't know i
that. They tortured the aged im
postor to death to make him *toll
wher$ the magic stor.e was.
Moral:; Don't fool your fellow j

New York's "tVhittemore Gangv '
planning vobberies, with murder as 1
pari of the programme, if neces- |
. sary, sold their loot in advance. '
Certain individuals, pretended i
jewelers and others, called
"fences," had bargained in ad- |
' var.ee to buy the stolen jewelry, i
Why not discourage such ejiterr
prise by indicting the "fences" for !
murder? ~ They are as guilty as ,
the bandits that kill, being "ac
cessories before the act."
If each bandit murderer had his i
"fence' ar his partner in t'he e?ec- I
trie chair performance, that would

SHOULD PLANT MORE
SOYBEAN'S THIS YEAR
l-: -Raleigh, N. C f April 5.? There
j arc four excellent reasons .why a
larger acreage should be planted to
| Soybeans this year,' states E. 0.
I Blair, extension agronomist at State
j College. ?
j The first f these reasons is that
I soybean -eeti^are i?*ufrr .'n pTioc than
; in several years. Mr. Blair states
j that good aeed are obtainable at '
i about half t\e cost or *ast year and
j this in itself should be a gx>< i rrjMi
[ merit for growing more legumes in
the State this summer.
The second reason is" I hi : t ' Fnere
is a need for mare legume hay," e->
J pecially in the piedmont and - west
I em parts of the State. The severe
i dfou&ht in 1925 killed nearly all
I the clover sown last springapd soy
I beans may be planted this spring to
make up for the s?arcity of clrver
i hay. .. .
! The third reason given by Mr.
; Blair is the possibility of a big eot
| ton crop in 1926/ Indications are
| that a bumper crop wijl be grown
i all over the South. The severs \vin
i ter has probably killed a large nujn
j.ber of the hibernating boll weevils
and this with a large acreage plant
ed will cause a heavy production of
cotton resulting in a low-price. The
wise cotton farmer will therefore
arrange ti have a good supply of
feed to carry bis .livestock ? next win
i ter. Soybeans make excellent hay
for this purpose. ?
?The fourth end final re?i>n iJ
based 4n the . probability frhat the
i Cooperative Tobacco Association will
i not function this fall as in the past,
If thia be true, states Mr. Blair, a
, North Carolina r.egf frrtl~ which will
sh^c. the thinking planter that he
needs to prepare now for Vinter
feed. It Would also he -wise' t(5 TC-:
doce-tW- tobacco acreage and put

action taken by Supervisor Simmons.
It must not be forgotten that
fhe?fe girls are doing 4o0' minutes
of work in the Home Economics de

their other studies, and they still
