The springtime in all its beauty is with us stain, and the folks of this section can hardly resist the impulse to don the old "flop' hat. take down the fish. Ing pole, long corrred with dust and cob-webs, and with, a box of bait scamper off to the quiet, cool banks, there to rest beneath the murmuring boughs of the newly-dressed trees, aud now aud then rope in a flouncing trout for the fisherman's evening job. Nearly ten bushels of trout, it is es timated, have been caught with hook and seine already this season. A singing contest, which was heard by the fifty members of the I'nion Grove Sunday school, was held last Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Pusser. Belmont, Jerome. Mill Grove, Ebe nezer and Furr schools have all closed. Farmers In this community "are clamoring for fertilizer. Four cars are expected to arrive at In!iua Trail sooa, but this will not be i nouuli to supply the demand. ( Strawberries were ripe on the third day of this month. .

"Should Prof. Goddard's theory: prove workable by his demonstra tions at that time," the bulletin states, "the event may rank in the history of a new super-aviation sci ence, as yet unnamed, along with the trial liiuliis of the late Prof. Sauuiel P.

"Wide publ'eity ha been given the speculations concerning whether Prof. Goddard's device may be projected to the n. .on; and while he holds that such a development is not impossible. it Is uue of the less practical aspects of the device. More immediate pos- sibilities which Prof. Coddard holds forth include the study of the aurora; of the short wave lengths in the spec trum of the sun which are entirely absorbed by the air; and, at more moderate altitudes, measurements of wind velocity, humidity, temperature, and prtsi'r; all of which enter Into weather forecasting. "While the jienetration of the upper air. where there Is sui posed to exist a gas unknown on the lower aerial levels; the projection of a roi l t-t be yond the world's atmosphere, and perhaps its dim-lion to o'her planet a. all ofi'er a field of speculation out ri valing the pure romance.) of Jules Verne or II. C. Wells. The basic prin ciples or the apparatus, like those un delylnir most Inventions, are simple. "Hi i-l!v. prof. Goddard's theory is this: The best rocket which could be imagined Is one in which all heat enemy of ihe powder could be con verted, on burning, into energy of per second tbe highest yet attaitiei motion. In addition his ideal rocket for matter in any appreciable quant -would consist chiefly of this propel- ty. ling material or poder.

I find ttheuma far In advance of the methods generally employed In the treatment of rheu matism, and altogether different In composition from the remedies usu ally prescribed." Dr. M. C. Lyons. .

C The Great Results . that come from the Special Steels in a MAXWELL : There is a double advantage in the use of these special steels in a Maxwell. 1. They eliminate super fluous pounds, lighten the task of the engine, ease the bur den on tires, make possible quicker acceleration. 2. They add strength which insures endurance, dependa bility,' uninterrupted perform ance, and infrequent repairs. These special steels make possible the Maxwell construc tion of great strength combined with light weight. The light weight decreases the burden on the engine and their strength provides en durance. They have been important factors in the success of Max well the world over, in its ever increasing friendships, in its great growth. Nearly 100,000 Maxwells are now in use. You cannot motor even in a foreign land, without meeting them. Heath Motor Co. MONROE, N. C. Jrl IT
