But I received a letter one lay recently offering to give me a ot near Charlotte which might bear * little scrutiny. Alta Vista subiivision is out four or five miles from the city on the Stajcaville road. Lots have been offered "a few prominent and influential personages for advertising purposes only. A 25-foot lot will be given absolutely free for only $54 which goes to pay for preparing deed, etc." Now that's generosity worth while when it is considered much land four miles of Charlotte is Worth about $100 an acre and that sixteen 25-foot lots may be had from one acre subdivision. By a little figuring it will n.tdily be realized that the generous persons "giving away" Alta Vista lots are receiving nearly $1000 an acre. But they evidently are Christians, for the Alta Vista promoters absolutely refuse to show prospective purchasers over the property on Sundays. But to go back to book agents. Some weeks ago a man came in and solemnly stated that he was going to sell me a book "at practically the cost of blank paper and binding." 1 promptly accepted his proposition. All rjght. The price of the book, stated the agent, is only $1.75. Since I was purchasing by the pound, I laid the book on the office scales. It weighed just two and one-half pounds. Since book paper costs 8 cents a pound, I tendered the fellow a quarter?the extra nickel being for his profit. He got mad and left.? Monroe Enquirer. O LOST SHIP ARRIVES Schooner Irene Had Roamed,Seas for Over Four Months' San Pedro, Calif., April 26.?With her crew gaunt from hunger and long believed lost at sea, the four-masted schooner, Irene, arrived here Thursday afternoon -after 180 days' battle with adverse weather. Two members of her crew, G. I. Peterson and Fred Dale, were ill in their bunks from exposure, and lack of diet, while the remainder presented a half-starved appearance. A succession of head winds, punctuated with calms, drove the vessel thousands of miles off her course. She was bound from Gray's Harbor,' [ Washington to Miami, Fla., with a [cargo of lumber, via the Panama, I Canel. | C.apt. A, E.-liosendal stated tbat | bad weather conditions beset the Irene from the day preparations were made, more than four months ago, to leave Gray's Harbor. She was barbound for a week before making the I open sea. Once outside the bar the I vessel encountered a stiff southeaster and was carried several phoUsand miles west of the Oregon coast. The expected northwest wind did not come and when the Irene hauled about on the port tack adverse winds were encountered and 'her bottom had not been cleaned for sixteen months and a big sea growth hampered her prog-, ress. ' Y " When the food and water supply began to get low everyone was placed on shorter rations in the hope that the canal could be reached before the supplies gave out. The heavy head winds did not cease and it was thirty days before the Irene reached the Lower California coast. Conditions repeatedly approached a desperate stage when the water was nearly gone, and no ram fell to !the supply. The crew man-,, atch considerable fjph while which pfobably saved them vation.. loscndal decided to cross the ,nd attempt to pick up the ids approaching the cana , coast , of Ecuador.

Perhaps his disability has nothing to do with his service. But that makes the situation no less needful. His wife and bis kiddies have to eat. Not a few of these men can feel peace of mind today because they arc working for a living?the living that means-so much When there are many mouths to feed, They are working for the American Legion Auxiliary, making poppies for sale next Memorial Day. There's a special joy in wearing a poppy made by a disabled American veteran, when you know the money it brought him filled ?t desperate need. In hospitals?and in one workroom in Minneapolis?these poppies are made. And the good that the money does their makers is often less than the good that busy fingers bring to their disturbed minds and bodies, as any psychiafct-ist will tell you, There was one patient, a brilliant physician who had lost the power to concentrate. His mind would jump from this to that against his will? which meant real disability for him. He entered a hospital where poppies are made, and went to work with joy in his chance to keep busy and earn for his family, It's a trick to make poppies. You build them petal by petal and part by part. The doctor learned to keep his mind on making poppies, and soon found he could keep his mind on any problem that came his way. So they sent him back once more to his practice, cured by the poppies he had made. And his family was kept from absolute want* while he was in the hospital by the funds he had earned with his nimble fingers. ! Unfortunately, not all of the poppies sold in the United States are made by disabled veterans. Last years over 3,000,000 poppies were made by disabled veterans for the Auxiliary's National Poppy Committee. But over 3,000,000 poppies were made infactories?"commercial poppies" they call them, in contrast with the poppies the veterans make. : "We are hoping that more of the states and posts and units will buy I their poppies of the Auxiliary, and less from outside sources," says Mrs. Adalin Wright Macauley, chairman of I the Auxiliary's National Poppy Committee. "We have to sell them for 1 just a little more, because our workI men-veteran cannot compete . with factory machines and highly experI ienced operators. But the difference I in cost to the post is slight. And remember, the whole thing goes to disabled men who need our help. I "The 3,000,000 poppies made last year under the Auxiliary National Poppy Committee meant that over I $40,000 was paid direct to disabled I men as wages for their work. This J year, if no- more orders reach the I poppy committee than we already have, over $65,000 will be earned by I the disabled. Every cent that the I public gives for these poppies to help I the needy and disabled service men. The Auxiliary members give their [services free, of course. So do, the hospital employes who supervise the I work in Minnesota, at Mendota, and I every place where poppies are being I made;" The earnings of the men are limited to two dollars a day in hospitals; to (four dollars a day in the work-room [in Minneapolis. This is for medical 1 reasons; sick men cannot be allowed to overwork at the time when their I strength rtiust be conserved. But two dollars in wages a day earned in hospitals helps at home, and four [dollars a day is a Godsend. I The American Legion was the first I organization 4n the United States to I adopt the poppy. Its action came in 1 1920. The American Legion AuxilI iary adopted the poppy as its emblem I in 1921. And the next" veteran organization to adopt the poppy followed in 1922. < Judge Seaae Helps 1 A Spartanburg farmer recently [called for duty asked to be ex1 cased. Judge Sease was presiding. I "What excuse have you to -offer?" I inquired the jurist. "Well, sir," answered the farmer, I "I have a twelve-horse farm all ready I to be planted in corn and it is neoesI sary that I bfc at home to supervise I the work." "That is a good excuse," replied the I judge; "and you are excused. But ii I you had told me that you had the 'I land of your twelve-horse farm all |*re*dy to be planted In cotton, I. would I not have let you go."?The Piedmont Home Toys Replacing German , Washington, April 29.-^The?Ger=~ TnarrtoyT8 fast losing its place in the heart of the American boy, due largely, the commerce department has announced, to the development of American made and more modern "thingamajigs." Although German toy exports last year increased 8 per cent in quantity, the amount shipped- to the United States and to Great Britain, her principal markets, declined 33 and 5 per cent, respectively. Germany is looking to the conclusion of several agreements with other countries, however, to bolster up her 1926 toy trade. j Branchville Man Robbed and Killed Branchville, May 2.r---TQnight -a*ot?td?7~'0*Ctbck Antonia Demmer was found dead at his home on the edge of town.
