Mackey Mercantile Company DRIVKH CAR IN SbEBP . ?? ??? ?' * ? Grttnville Ud Yakw l^ng Trip and Then Waken Up, Greenville News, C*n a person get up in hie sleep, go to h get. un automobile out that he has hardly learned to drive, and race eight miles down a road '.'wide open" and never run in a ditch? If that question has been puzzling anyby^y it has been answered. The stunt watt pulled one night last week by George I'uckett, 14 year old son of W. L. I'uckett, night watchman in the Woodside building. George's father told the story to a News reporter in Greenville at the Woodside building. The tale ran something like this: The Puckett home is situated some three miles from the city just off the Kasley road. George has been known several times to get* up in his sleep and walk about the house, always waking members of the family, who got him back to bed. Tuesday about midnight he arose and without dress ing; walked out of the house. When somewhat younger George was "afraid of the dark" and even now he does not like to go about after night has fallen.,- He went straight to the garage on this night, however, and on? of the small children heard him start the engine of a well known make of automobiles." The little one called an older bro ther but before he could get out of the house, George was fast disappear ing. George had just learned to drive the car. He did not take the regular drivevyay to the road, but an old wagon road barely wide enough to get through. He did not seem, to mind the narrow road, however, as he opened the accelerator; he tore over brush piles at full speed. He fast;disap? pen rod towards Saltufa" IcTamT^' The boy was next seen as he passed the dam stil! going at full speed. A man who saw him hatless and wear ing nothing but a thin nightshirt, re^ alized that something was wrong and telephoned officials further down the road. . t In the mean time, Wayoourt Chil dress and other neighbors of the Pucketts had been awakened and started in pursuit of the sleeping boy in their automobiles. They passed a number of cars who reported seeing the boy driving as fast as the car would run. About three miles from home they found George -on the side of the road, wide awake and in trou ble: His car wouldn't go. George told his story. He said that he could not remember much about it but it soemed that he suppposed one of the heels had come off one of his shoes and he was going to have it fixed. He (lid not know how far he had been but when he awoke he was parked on the side of the road, head ed towards home. His engine had evi dently died. The- pursuers estimated from infor mation given by other cars that George had driven about eight miles from home and turned around <tnd driven over fuye miles on the back track when he woke up. If George had tried the stunt in the day time when he was awake he would have probably been in the ditch before he had driven a mile, relatives said. Needless to say that after this the Puckett car will be securely locked and the key hidden before George goes to bed. * Backfire. "It's no wonder you're such a sissy, " declared the bad boy. "Your pa and ma were married by a justice of the peace," "Well, retorted independent Mary, "from the noise I hear coming from your house, your pa and ma must have been married by the secretary of war." ?

It hail /bven stated by a, leading ping ing t eacher that we all would have a good voice If It were cultivated, but Htlii some voices would be better than others. There Is a reason why we do not all huve really flue voices. The "souud box," as It were, of our body la the larynx, or aa moat people call it, the "Adam's Apple." Across this stretch our two vocal chords, like the strings of a violin, thick for a bass, thin f?r a tenor, and so on. The "bow" that strikes these chords If, of course, our own breath, und the dlffereut nptes are produced by the moving of certain muscles st the base of the larynx. Just as the tone of a violin depends largely upon the body of the Instru ment, so even perfect vocal chords are of little use unless our body contains a sufficient space, properly laced, for their tone to echo In; resonating o#vl tlea, we call thera. We therefore need for the beat voice a perfect sound box and perfect chorda, plus fully devel oped "resonating cavltlep," a?<l good muscles to work the larynx. Added to this, our mouth and tongue must be placed In precisely the best position for our particular notes. Per fect health ts needed for the, breath that is our "bow," a j>erfeet ear to dis tinguish the slightest variation of tone, and finally a long nnd expensive train IhK to enable us to work every part of our sound-machine to the best advan tage. Olven all these factors, we have the perfect singer. Short in any one of them, we have a less perfect singer 1 ? Exchange.
