BECKHAM, Ticket Agent, — Shelby, N, C Southern Railway System Lina Basquette, Screen Queen, Dempsey's New Heart Attack * * * * * * Identity of Manaasa Mauler’s Lovely Companion Hidden Under Cognomen of “Itosita Gonzales.” Both in Reno, but Deny Romance. &3TEUC Ta'jTCOR. g_OL Jack Dekpsey 1/1NA Basquetxe Rumors of a romance between Jack Dempsey, former heavyweight champion of the world, and a beautiful Spaniard, with whom he has been seen frequently in Reno, received added impetus with the discovery that “Rosita Gonzales,” as the mysterious beauty called herself, is none other than Lina Basquette, glamorous ornament of the silver screen. Lina, according to her mother, changed her name for business reasons and is not in Reno for any other purpose than that she needs a long rast. Apparently Lina finds Dempsey's company restful, for she spends most of her time with the ex-champion. The screen queen was going about with Teddy Hayes, Dempsey's former trainer, until Jack happened upon the scene and began to pay attentions to Lina, whereupon Teddy smacked Mr. Dempsey, who strangely did not retaliate. However, Lina fired Teddy, who had been her manager, the next day. Meanwhile, Jack's former wife, Estelle Taylor, though reported engaged many times since her divorce from Dempsey, is apparently heart whole and fancy free. She is finding a lot of fun in decorating her new home in Sarta Monica, Calif. Lina Basquette has been married twice. Her first ralrriage was with Sam Warner, film magnate, who died and left her a fertune. Her second venture, with Peverl Marley, cameraman, ended in the divorce courts. Cleanliness Best Insurance Against Dread Typhus Overcrowding and Poor Hygienic Conditions Chief Causes of Disease Believed to Be Carried by Para• *i<cs, and That Diow Is Comparatively Rare in U. S. By ROYAL S. COPELAND, M. D. > United States Senator from New York. Former Commiseioner of Health, Yetc York City. TYPHUS fever lias always been associated with filth i and unhygienic surroundings. “The history of typhus fever is [the history of human wretched ^ness, said a wise roan of old. A s civilisation and education have spread over the face of the earth, this disease has preatly de creased. It was not until the six teenth century that typhus fever was rec ojrnized and treated as a dis Dr. Copeland tmct disease, it is now Deireved to be carried by a parasite re sembling the ordinary body louse. Typhus fever occurs whenever large numbers of people are massed together under poor hygienic condition*. It is always found in wars. In the recent world war the disease was one of the worst afflic tions of trench life. The disease !» more common in Europe than In this country. The last epidemic in America was in 199S, and since then only occasional cases have heen reported. When the dis ease appears in this country, it is usually found among recent immi grants Among the signs of typhus fever are sudden chill and fever. The fever persists and on the second day may be as high as one hundred and five degrees. Nausea, headache and aching pains are common signs. On the third to fifth dav a reddish rash appears. This rash changes 'rom a plnki»h red to \ purplish brown, and rapidly spreads all over the body eaoept the lace.. Insomnia and restlessness are present, and in severe eases the patient may become delirious. The crisis Is reached on tr.e thir teenth or fourteenth day. After that the aches. jsUos and fever gradually disappear. | Tilseaoc Is Rnre S'ow | A. sufferer from till* disease re quires expert care and nursing. Without it there is alway* danger of a serious complication, stich as broncho-pneumonia. The p a t i e n t should be given food that is easily digested; water should lie taken freely, and the mouth rhould 6« kept clean. The parasites carrying the ailment must be removed from all clothing and bedding. At the beginning of the disease a thorough cleansing of the body is easer*iai, and a daily bath is given thereafter. ITevention of this d'sease Is large ly a matter of personal cleanliness. It is also a problem of social welfare. Dark, crowded, unsanitary homes are favorable to Infection with typhus fever. With complete eradication of these factor* this disease will no longer be encountered, and I am glad to say that typhus fever ta al ready a rare disease. Nor I* the importance of sanitation to be overlooked as r. factor in pre venting other diseases than typhus.

At Kings Mtn. Twenty-Five Calls Are Answered ' One To Grover. Banquet Is Served During Year. (By E. R. GAMBLE) Kings Mountain, June 13,-Kinga Mountain's fire lass for the first year since the organisation of ti vol unteer fire department was Only $3. 288. The town council r.n June 1, 1932, purchased new and modem fire fighting equipment and organized a volunteer fire department with Grady W, King as fire chief. He has sixteen volunteer assistants. Dur ing the year ending June 1 the de partment has answered 28 calls and received only one falre alarm. Two trips were made to Grover, eight miles away, to lend t Tlstance to the citizens of that town who do not have any fire fighting facilities. Twenty of the calls occurred during the day and five were night calls. Only one house was completely de stroyed by fire during the year. The fire at this place started In the early morning end was not discovered un til the rocf was falling in. The de partment answered the call but could render little assistance. The loss on this occasion was $1,500 or almost one half the lass for the entire year. The department her had regular weekly drills during tile year. Sev eral of the members attended the fire school In Asheville which was conducted by State Fire Marshal Brockweil. The knowledge gained at this school was re’ayed to other members o! the department. The department was hoets at a banquet and get together meeting at the Woman’s club rooms here during the, winter r.t which time members of the fire departments of Charlotte, Shelby. Gastonia. Besse mer City, CherryviUe and Lincoln ton attended. Sherwood Brockweil of Raleigh war the principle speak er. since rne organization or this de partment the fire issurance rates for the entire town has been re adjusted and decreased In most cases, The average decrease Is esti mated at about 20 rer cent and it was thought that the decrease in Insurance rates would be more than enough to offset the increase in taxes necessary to equip and maintain the fire department. Lesson For Hartness In Loyalty To Party Lenoir News-Topic. The defeat of J. A. Hartness for secretary of state might form the basis of some interesting speculation. There was no suggestion of a fight on Mr. Hartness. It was assumed that he would be r».e;ected, just as all the other Incumbent officials were re-elected. Although it Was common knowledge that he had an gered the ‘‘regulars'’ by training with the "Irregulars" back in a day which had better be forgotten, the general opinion was that his "sins” had been forgiven. Yet the party rlz up and spanked him at the very first opportunity. Many rank and file Democrats will resent that attitude strongly, and they may have the right to re sent it, but the fast remains that the Democratic party in North Carolina has given tts aspiring can didates the mast profound object lesson in party regularity ever wit nessed. Things are changing, and the Aus Watts school of politics will realize, if It has not already done so. that the voices which used to control the winds in this state control them no longer. There is a younger element, reared m the same environment, which strangely enough has an un canny way of thinking right much in unison The polit cians who fall to recognize that will have other surprises before the process of weed lng out the old order to finally com pleted. Miss Earhart Talks In Sensible Manner (New York World-Telegram) Amelia Earhart, ore-time social worker in. Boston, said to the French senate on Tuesday:— ‘ It is more difficult to make a good law than a t;ood Atlantic flight.” • t "Madame, what you did imperilled only yourself, whereas what we do carries danger to many others.” Another differenct between Mis* Earhart in her Lockheed plane and our own congressional aeronauts in the good Ship of S’ate is that site consulted only her compass, her weather charts and her courage. She had no lobbyists and moral cru saders on board to advise with. She was not always thinking how she could get her kinsfolk and other peoples kinsfolk and friends on a pay roll. And she did not have to keep her “ear to the ground.” She just flew her ship. She got where she'wa* geing, and nobody got hurt. If our own legislative aviators were just sure where they were going, that, would help. Come back, Miss Earhart, with your compass, your maps and your courage, and show congress how to navigate! > | Elliott Discusses Science, Religion, Fundamental Laws i By JAMES ELLIOTT) Science, is syst'emized knowledge of any one department ot mind or nutter, acknowledged .truths and laws, especially as demonstrated by induction experiment or observat ion While science is as old as nat ural law, it only lately came into common use to prove truths and to combat super.etition that has held mankind in its thrawldom through the ages. Disputed questions now appeal to scientific ;esearch for facts. Science has become the su preme arbiter in education, politics and religion; Any thing that cannot stand the scentific test must go. Science helps religion by divest ing it of superstition that has re tarded ts growth. That may be call ed materialism. Science unites the material and spiritual. It is not dog matte, but proves what it claims. About 1830-1870 three English scientists, Spencer, Huxley and Darwin, promulgated the theory of evolution in life growth and devel opment which was accepted by the intelligent world. They ignored mys ticism and old beliefs and followed the laws of nature, tracing all life back to its original beginnnlng, the animal to the eggs and the plant to the seed wherein life started in a tiny cell and grew by adding cell to cell. Their object was to show how nature works now. The religious press raised the cry of alarm that infidel scientists would destroy our religion. The church brought that charge against OalUleo with his tellscope. He said instead of the sun running around the world the world ran around the sun and turn ing over made day and night. Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravitation that holds every thing in its place by attraction. ine moon run* around me eartn every 28 days and follows and keeps tt up regularly without coming Into close contact. While the sun keeps Its place, the world in its 365 revolu tions, leaning to and fro making our four climatic seasons, with one season On the equator and one at the poles. The Mississippi river run nlng south towards the equator runs up hill by centrifugal force in gravitation. I have heard men say this world had not tinned over since they had been, here One said he was not convinced because the North star was visible in the same place all the time. I told him it was so far off that the turn of the world did not obscure It. The great Dipper of six stars, seems to run around it every 24 hours. We can not contemplate the beginning or end of time, nor limit the universe. DEMONETIZING SILVER "What fools these mortals be." (By James C. Elliott.) Of all the crimes that ere has been Demonitizing silver is the greatest sin; It has caused more misery, pain and woe; Than any other crime we know. It causes hopeless slaves to toll in vain, That the rich more wealth may gain. It clothes the poor in rags of shame To give the rich greater power and , lame. □old, the Master, only selfish greed has shown, Claiming the wealth of the world its own; In times of greatest need, it hides and runs away, And waits for its slaves to bring a better day. It's only mission is to make money scarce and dear. That the people will their masters fear. Silver the only honest money of all time; Has proved a blessing in every land and clime. Prosperity comes with plenty of money to be had, That makes the heart of all the the people glad But selfishness is the tule in every game; That brings to all the people gnost shame.

Raleigh.—Five dairy cows on ev ery farm in North Carolina would make the state prosperous. A C Kimrey dairy extension specialise of N C.. State college, estimated last week. •If every farm in the state had five dairy cows which would pro duce an average of one pound ot butterfat each day which could bi sold for buttermaking at an average price of 20 cents a pound.” Klparey said, "the returns would pay all the taxes levied In the state in 1931 for state, county and municipal pur poses.” Kimrey said the production ot one pound of butterfat is not an unreasonable expectation, nor Is the price of 20 cents a pound too high for this fat to sell. The sum realized from the five dairy cows on every farm producing as outlined would make a down payment cf a little over $225 on the purchase price of every automobile owned in the state, he continued.. Or. the returns would buy and pry for two cities the size of Ra leigh. including their real and per sonal property. FOItEGLOSVftC SUITS FOR TAXES Actionn instituted during the months o?
