Double Springs, Jan. 20.—Owing to the very cold weather Saturday anil Sunday the attendance at Sun day school and preaching was not as good as usual. Our pastor Rev. J. W. Suttle preached an excellent sermon Sunday afternoon, very appropriate to the time in which we are living. His text was from Ecclesiastes 8:5. < The Sunday school has bought some new song books. The young people, seem to be very proud of them. Misses Amy and Virgie Suttle, from Marion were the week end guests of Miss Ray Greene.

WESTERN CAROLINA NEEDS 16 JUDGES, SAYS HARDING Winston-Salem—Western North Carolina should have 16 judges in stead of 10, Judge W. F. Harding, of Charlotte, who is presiding ovc r Superior court here. sa:d. Judge Harding pointed out that the congested condition of criminal court dockets is a matter that be given serious consideration. Forsyth county alone, he said, should have a separate judicial district in order that the criminal cases may be dis posed of promptly rather than br ing allowed to wait months and sometimes years for trial. HARRILL TO MANAGE FARMERS FEDERATION Rutherford Sun.. It was learned today that Mr. Grover Ham'll has accepted the po sition of manager of the Rutherfoid county branch warehouse here of thn Farmers federaiton, his duties to begin February 1. Mr. Grover Harrill has been with the Henrietta mills stores of Hen rietta and Caroleen for 22 years and for some time has been assist i ant manager under Mr. W. S. Moss. His duties at the warehouse will be many ana vaiietl. 1 Senator Couzens believes that in stallment buying stultifies initia tive, ambition and energy. He hrs never had any experience with a | collector of installment accounts! Proud parents are, as yet, ur ' able to understand why the little hopefuls insist upon waking up at i the crack of day. This is contrary | to the established rules of heredi lary influences. Ill Health the Greatest Obstacle to Happiness Columbia, S.

Science, the conquering genius of the age, scores another victory. Heralding a triumph over the mys terious forces exemplified by sound j vibration, it bag produced the ‘"Os:so,” an instrument that ; opens up vast possibilities both to man and to the machine. The Osiso is the invention of, Dr. J. W. Legg, research engineer i for the Westinghousc company, who lias taken the public into his , Secret after long years of patient labor. It is an instrument of aim-: plicity, yet it enables the deaf to hear, on the one hand, and com pels the earth 10 give up its sec rets on the other. And it exists solely because an electrical engi neer determined in his school days to do something to solve the great secret of vibration. Dr. Legg—an extremely modest man of less than middle age— gave a demonstration of the Osiso at the offices of the Westinghduse! company, at 150 Broadway. Re presentatives of the press as well as r.oted engineers were present. Sw of Its Uses These are some of the uses for which the Osiso has already been perfected: “Investigation of numerous elec trical phenomena. Recording sounds. Enabling the totally deaf to understand speech, plays, etc. Teaching the totally deaf to speak. Resting and improving the qual- j ity of singers’ and speakers’ voices. Studying and eliminating vibra tion in machinery of all kinds, in cluding >.he bounding automobiles. Determining the recoil action of , guns. Locating heavy artillery, air planes and vessels. Studying heartbeats, respiration 1 and other bodily functions. Locating oil, ore bodies, etc.” Of all the uses of the Osiso, ac cording to Dr. Legg, the one of most interest to the public prob-! ably the function which enables ■ those who are totally deaf to und- , erstand spoken language. This is, done through speaking into a j phonoscope, which records each I sound on a line of white light. The phonoscope in many respects resembles a camera ar.d photo graps of the effects of, sound vi bration may be taken from i,. Sound Alphabet Devised A “sound alphabet,” r.o to speak, has been devised, with each letter being represented by a different set of vibrations. Thus, a totally deaf person, learning this alphabet is able to read the spoken word flashed through the receiver and to a mirror which shows the vi brat:on's. The deaf person is enabled to see the audiofrequency waves and if he knows the alpha bet he is enabled at once to under '■tend what is l»eing said. The •ame thing applies to deaf muter «vho have mastered the new al phabet. Experiments io test tHo value of the Osiso in riding deaf persons »nd those who are mutes have been made by Dr. Gault, of the Nat ional Research council ut Wash :i gton. Dr. Gault has said that he believes the Osiso is the best ap paratus in existence for teaching he deaf to hear by sight. He is also of the opinion that many dumb persons can he made to use their vocal organs through the use of this--machine. The importance of the demon stration is that it is the first time Dr. Legg has been able U> pro duce an Oiiiso of portable size. For some time past he has been build ng instruments of great weight for use in commercial enterprise!;; but now he has been able to pro duce a machine about the size of a camera and will soon perfect one small enough to be placed in the XT'! pocket. With r.n Osiso, a totally deaf person may go to a theatre and he able to “hear” every word spoken on the stage. By using the small instrument now used by partially deaf persons and at taching to it the Osiso carried in his vest pocket the deaf person may look in a glass and see every round vibration caused by the words spoken on the stage. Through mastery of the “sound al phabet,” he is thus enabled to fol low the dialogue as well as a per son or normal hearing. Preacher Cannot Read But Is Good Kinston—Mingo Wallace, itiner ant negro preacher, has been a free lance minister a third of a century. He belongs to a denomination which has thousands cf members in this part of the country, he has no of ficial standing—has never been or dained. The elite of the brethren do not regard him very highly, accord ing to Wallace, but he gets results. The preacher has delivered hun dreds, possibly several thousand, sermons from the Bible, but h» has never read a word in the Book. Never has he failed io have it open ed to him, in order to appear to con sult it frequently and read pas sages from it. He quotes many scriptural axioms, adages and ad monitions “The congregations don’t know no differunt. and I ‘presses ’em termendously,” the preacher explains. This Bible studer.: cannot read n word, except the one word “Bible” Sn large type and he does not know the names cf the letters compris ing it. Traveling from place to place, preaching here and there and every where, the self-styled Rev. Mingo Wallace has made numberless con verts. He rarely fails to draw a good crowd. He has baptized hun dreds, this black John the Baptist walking in his wilderness of ignor ance. Doctor, (examining unconscious engineer.! Did the automobile hit this engine?
