More coming. Watch for them. E verywhere you g oevery- body is figuring out a Cross Word Puzzle. Nobody is working or even exercising. America will lose the next War but win the next Puzzle Contest. It’s the greatest craze that hit this coun try since Prohibition. People say to me, “Why Will, you don’t understand, it is an Education, it learns you more ways to say one word.” If you know one way to say a word, what do you need to know any more for? Nobody is going to give you anything for nothing, I don’t care how many ways you ask for it. Our nation has never been short on words. We might lack ideas sometime but never words. This puzzle has done one thing, it has learned us which is-Horizontal and whjch is \ erticaj. But a Cross Word Puz zle is not new. Railroad Time Tables have been out for years.

LYNN HEARD IN COLUMBIA Head of Thornwell Orphanage Preach ed For Arsenal Hill Congregation > x Last Sunday. Dr. L. Ross Lynn, president of the "Thornwell Orphanage of this city, oc cupied the pulpit of the Arsenal*Hill Presbyterian church of Columbia on last Sunday, at both morning and evening services. The following news item relative to his sermon, appeared in The State of Monday: “Dr. L. Hops Lynn, president Thornwell Orphanage of Clinton, preached the Sermon yesterday morn ing at the Arsenal Hill Presbyterian church. “Dr. Lynn chose as his text a phrase ‘The Church in Thy House.' The Christian home,’ Dr. Lynn said, ‘stands at the foundation of nation and church. When our homes go tp pieces we will decay as a nation. We will be wrecked as a church.’ “The speaker recited an instance in the life of Henry W. Grady. Mr. Grady himself once told how his heart was stirred as he looked at the capitol in Washington and thought of what it. symbolized, the strength of the nation. As he rode toward his own home he noted the humble homes that dotted the hills and valleys and went into one of them. He was asked by the head of the family to read from the Bible. He saw the family bow its head around the fireside and commit itself to Him during the silent watches of the night and remarked later, ‘I was mistaken when I said the strength of the nation was represented in the capitol. It is represented in the Christian home.’ “‘If our,homes were all that they ought to be,’ Dr. Lynn said, ‘our churches would more nearly approxi mate what they ought to be. Religion in the home is the fundamentally im portant thing for us. We think of the church as being a group of families united in worship because of a com mon belief, spirit and purpose. The present day church as we think of it was never designed by Jesus Christ. The present day church was never de signed to take away from the home its religious responsibility. It was not de signed to supplant but to supplement and strengthen the worship of the home. I rejoice in the work that is being done in Sunday school, in the courses of study, in the training of teachers, but the best Sunday School in America can not do for any child that which God expects to be done for it at home. We ought to maintain that intimate personal relationship in tended by God between us and our child.’ “Dr. Lynn then referred to the church in Thornwell Orphanage, the Tome of 360 orphans. He spoke orf the labit of church attendance and Bible study and cited instances that prove the orphanage loyalty and devotion to their home.” CITADEL WINS BY CLOSE SCORfc Late Jnning Rallies Defeat Presbyter ians In Opening Game pf Season In Charleston. (From News and Courier) POISONING CASE TO BE REOPENED Famous baritone ON MUSIC PROGRAM Douglas Stanbury of Chicago Civic Opera Company To Be Heard In Spartanburg. Spartanburg, March 28.—Douglas Again proving .that a fighting spirit Stanbury, famous baritone of the Chi cago Civic Opera company, will ap pear at the Spartanburg Music Festi val on opera night, Thursday, May 7. Mr. Stanbury was born in Canada and received there the greater part of his musical training. He comes by his gift of voice quite naturally, since both his mother and grandfather were professional singers. He was a boy soloist in an Episcopal church of Tor onto, Canada. At eleven years he be gan public concert work and was soon famous. Boy contraltos being very rare, he was much sought after. He toured Canada and New York state with Pryor’s band and sang with the Pittsburgh orchestra in Rochester. From a youthful contralto quality, Stanbury’s voice gradually developed into a rich Jbaritone, and this, not so many years ago. Coupled with the enthusiasm of youth, however, he has the poise of the artist acquired from much public experience, for he has concertized almost continuously. The voice is of the luminous vital type, even throughout the scale, wide in is one of the greatest assets any per son or team can possibly have, the Citadel Opened its baseball season yesterday afternoon at Hampton park by defeating the Presbyterian College in the final innings of tha-’battle, by of the score of 6 to 6. A light drizzle fell through most of the afternoon and the weather was not condusive to the best of baseball. It was the gradual overcoming of what looked to be an unsurmountable lead of five runs that enabled the cadets to emerge with a win. When the game started it seemed as if the Bulldogs had put their debut date a bit too far advanced for their own welfare. “Merkle” Hiott occu pied the central position on the dia mond and walked Holladay as a start er.' This was not so bad when “Buck” ShiRito fired down to Berry and nip ped the churchman off of first. But the speedy Hunter also drew a pass and Garvin and Warner singled in rapid succession, Hunter scoring. At this time Bob McDowell came in BACK BAD TODAY? Then Find the Cause and Correct It As Other Clinton Folks Have. There’s little rest or peace for the backache sufferer. Days are tired and weary— Nights bring no respite. Urinary troubles, headaches, dizzi ness and nervousness, all tend to pre vent rest and sleep. Why continue to be so miserable ? Why not use a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys? Use Doan’s Pills. Your neighbors recommend Doan’s. Read this Clinton case: Oscar Cash, 11 Davis St., says: “A dull pain settled in the small of my back and when I stooped it was hard to straighten. My kidneys were weak and acted too frequently. The secre tions burned in passage, too. When having this trouble, I used a box of Doan’s Pills and in a short time, I felt as well as ever. Doan’s do what they are represented to do.” Price 60c, at all (jeaters. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Pills—the same that Mr. Cash had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buf falo, N.

Moore followed with a double in succession, and when the smoke of battle had cleared away the visitors had four runs • color. Mr. Stanbury combines rare musical intelligence and emotional enthusiasm with a histrionic ability of no small degree. His. winning personality is However, Bob McDowell continued; a strong stage asset, and his ability to occupy the mound and he turned in a most creditable game, in fact, a most excellent one, for he gave up but two hits in the remaining eight in nings, fanned eight ambitious Clinton- ites and while he walked five, he tightened up in the pinches and just to prove that he has the stuff fanned three men in a row with the bases jammed. This was his fifth inning performance. Not satisfied with those four runs the Presbyterians added a fifth in the third frame when Douglas errored Warner’s roller, followed by a pass, an out and a sacrifice fly by J. M. Moore. But after that the visitors simply could do nothing with the ap parently easy pitching of “Lefty” Bob, who throws right-handed, but who bats and kicks from the port side. A double in the fifth by Warner and one by Hannah in the sixth were the only safe hits secured by the Pres byterians after that initial drive. “Bu<;k” Shillito blossomed forth as one of the spring sensations With his catching and pitching and general good work. In the fourth “Buck” shot a double to left field and Pike Berry followed with an infield hit. A field er’s choice by McDowell enabled Shil lito to score by the means of a good slide. Then along about the seventh frame the cadets seemed to realize that the game was almost gone. Hiott and Sweetenberg began with solid smash es for one base each to center and on the throw were soon perching on third and second. Sessions was called on as a pinch hitter and sent one right through the waiting legs of Holladay, both men scoring. Douglas lined out to present, with joy and ease in the presenting, a repertoire of marked diversity, makes him a success in every place he appears. In between his concert tours, he has appeared with tremendous popularity at the biggest New York moving pic ture house, the Capital Theatre, and^ it was here that he stood out so mark edly that he was spectacularly jumped right into opera, with the Chicago Civic Opera company, where he has just had a most successful season. Montreal Herald: “Remarkable voice of great sonority, individual timbre and expressive power.” Washington Star: “His voice has a freshness and natural quality, and he las considerable dramatic ability.” Atlantic City Press: “San in a mas terful fashion.” Newark Evening News: “A genuine )aritone, mellow and sympathetic in ;one, well controlled and responsive to the effects he afcns at.” Chicago Tribune: “Here is a fine voice, resonant, round and ardent.” Chicago News: “A good looking young singer, who displayed musical style and artistic taste.” Chicago Journal: “A voice and bear ing valuable to the company.” Baltimore Police Believe Robert Dil lard W’as Murdered and Order ' Investigation. . u*,* ■ X men ovv/x mg. LI I cx o uueu The death of Robert Conway Dil- j anc ^ Teddy W eeks walked. Then ard, son of Mr. Jack W. Dillard of this city, which occurred several days ago in Baltimore, remains a mystery and has called for a reopening of the case in the belief that the young man was murdered rather than he ended his own life. The following item rela tive to the tragedy, appeared in Fri day’s issue of the Baltimore Sun: “As a result of investigation by police, Dr. J. S. H. Potter, coroner for the northeastern district, may be ask ed to call a special inquest into the death of Robert Dill&rd, 3101 Tinges lone, last Saturday. “A verdict of suicide was given when the man died at St. Joseph’s hospital from poisoning and severe burns from an acid. Police have re cent information, however, indicating a possibility that Dillard was murder ed, and are aboqt to ask that the case be reopened. “About two weeks ago, according to a report in the hands of police, Dil lard told associates at tjie Colonial hospital, where he was employed, that someone had attempted to chloroform him. He also was said to have told the same thing to a neighbor. “Following this, according to mem bers of the family who occupy a part of the house in which he lived, he pur chased a lock and put it on a window of his kitchen on the second floor. Investigation made shortly after he was removed to the hospital early Saturday in an unconscious condition revealed that the widdow was open and had been propped open by a small shovel. “On top of a woodshed a short dis tance from the window was found an old cap and on the floor of the build ing was an empty bottle, which was believed to have contained the poison. “Dillard’s acquaintances told police they did not believe the man had had any domestic difficulties and that his on a close play at first Shillito lost the decision, ending the rally. But the eight made up for what was lacking in run producing in the sev enth. Berry started with a clean sin gle and Bob was complimented with a ticket to first, but was forced by Hiott a moment later. “Sweety” Sweentenberg’s single put Berry home. Then with Hiott on third and “Sweety” on first, Hannah balked and Hiott took his time scoring, as there was no need to hurry. Sessions sacri ficed Sweetenberg to third from which place he scored on J. Moore’s error of McTeer’s grounder. McDowell’s pitching was mighty fine, indeed, and Shillito’s work behind the plate was of a high order. Johnny Douglas made a sensational stop and throw and Teddy Weeks also contri buted some neat work. Berry, Shillito and Sweetenberg were the hard hit ters and Pike performed nicely at first throughout Hannah also worked well, but his support gave way behind him towards the last and errors helped. Holladay at third was excellent, as was the playing of Hunter in center.

Hospital officials also expressed doubt that the man had taken his own life. “There were some questions in the minds of investigators as to how the poison could have been administered in sufficient quantity to cause death without waking the man in time for him to defeat such a move by an enemy. * “Pharmacy experts said, however, that one tablespoonful of the liquid would have been sufficient to kill.” ( old price—5c per pkg.
