'Never look a gilt horse In the
nouth." 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.?

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-,,

To Sell I'oppiea May 10th
The Araerifcen Legion Auxiliary
will have charge of selling the popuies
on May 10th and money raised
in this way will be sent to the disabled
soldiers in the camps, following
is a description of how the
poppies are made and the history of
their origin as contained" \n a recent
issue of The American Legion
Weekly:
There's many a disabled service
man today with a family to support
and no compensation coming his way.
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

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
