The outfit employs no lead or line and consists chiefly of an electric transmitting unit which sends sound vibrations through the water.

Recent years have seen a tremen dous growth in the floating flivver population. The harvesting problem in several states was sr.lved tliijti year by auto caravans from the outs'de. Because harvesting sen.-nns are earlier in some states than Ih dthers, many farm hands were able to profitably travel firm fftie place i 0 another. The aver age vehicle carrying this migration is old and decrepit, but to the wheat farmer, especially, its appearance is warmlv welcomed. However, some states look on Hie gasoline wanderer as a meuaeo. The department of la bop goes so far as to refer to him as a "gasoline bum." For instance, one of his monthly reports says: . "There are enough workers resident in Oregon to harvest all the crops, if properly mobilized. But since so many of the farmers feel that they jieeil a large surplus of floating labor oil order to establish a reasonable wage scale, they encourage applicants at the farm gate. “Result: Oregon has been confront ed with the problem of tbe ‘gasoline, bum"—the casual laborer who drifts from place to place in an automobile with his family and all his worldly goods therein. “Th : s floating labor presents not only the problem of his employment but of the education of the children of the family.” Social agencies see little good in the new '‘Weary Willies/’ It finds many headed west, begging as they go along. Most of them are without money and in most instances they are acoompanied by large families. They enter a community and apply for funds, generally cn the plea of sick ness. The usual requests, say officials, are for money, gasoline, oil or re pairs f«r cars. Many claim to have left home because of labor conditions. However, proposals to aid them by selling tlteir ears are invariably re jected. Tickets to enable them to return home are almost always re fused. Conditions have become so bad that Little Rock, Ark., one bright spot on the main trek, is setting an exnmnle by refusing to give the se’J-stylcd flivver tourists" money or gasoline tt> GOITRE REMOVED Titusville Minister’s Wife Saved An Operations.

And then on a certain day They folded their tents like the Arab, And silently stole away. EMBARRASSING MOMENTS. Xew York Mirror. While standing in a crowded car the other day with my sister. I styly removed her purse from her pocket intending to tease her about her loss later. A few moments Inter I asked her for a coin antieipat ng her dis t comtituri at finding her purse gone. To my horror, she brought forth her purse. Worse than all. I couldn't imagine whose pocket I had innocent ly picked. While I was in the office last night, it rained very heavily, and I couhi not find my umbrella in it’s accus tomed place. I searched every office iq the.building, nnd was relieved to find it in the President's private of fice, and wondered how it got there. . I took it home, and next door when I came to the office I heard the Presi dent raising a row about the theft of bis Umbrella. 1 had a very embar rassing time making my explanation. I was a Door walker in a depart ment >tnv nnd waR one day asked to assist the window trimmer by bring | ing a certain wax model to him. I . walked up to the model, put my arms ' around it, lifted it and walked away with a screaming woman. I was fired. While riding home in the subwny ! a few evenings ago. I got into con versation with a lady. Wc discuss ed the different types of men. I iook eu ur, u,.u und ,aid, "Look at that pe culiar specimen standing at the door." Tmagire my embarrassment when sli repl ed, "That is my husband.” There was a pretty librarian wh m T visited occasionally. I grow to like her very much, nnd increased by vis its to the library. One day, while I cascading tor making believe I was) the head librarian saw me and asked, 'I notice you here quite often, you must,be very fond of reading. How do you I ke the book you are reading now?” "It is very intere ; ting,” I replied. "I never knew anybody that could read a book turned upside down like you have this one,” she replied with n smile. I looked at the book tnd was embarrassed to find that I had the book turned upside down. I was obliged to stand in a crowd ed car. A sudden stop and I fell backward on the lap of a man. I a rose',n ml. apologized. Another jerk ami I fell back on his knee again.' I was embarrassed when he shouted. "Well, girlie, tit here if you want to. but’stop hopping up and down.” Pest and Flagg's Cctton Fett,er. New York, Xcv. 18. —Trading to day on the cotton exchange has again been quiet and uninteresting, repre senting chiefly covering cf some short lines and scalpjug operations, The weekly weather was considered fav orable if anything and emphasised the lowering of grades during the past week but not the yield. The market had a good undertone due to trade buying orders on a scale down and reports of an excellent demand for low grade cotton and a strong basis. There was some spot house buying of the near mcntlip and the premium of December and January options advanced sligthly. Until the government report on Saturday no very wide fluctuations arc expected and tf.ie market will probably re main n scalping affair primarily. POST AND FLAGG. Boy Hurt at Mooresville.
