It ain't vary nice to talk of one's
infirmities, but there couldn't be any
harm in telling the few strangers 1
who read NOHODY^S BUSINESS <
that 1 am a little bit deef in eue
aar and sorter hard-of-hearing in the
ather one. In order to overcome this '
handicap, I sent off and got me an
electrical hearing apparatus and if I J
can ever get used to it, I think it i
will enable me to hear a man talk <
when he s, talking about money or '
short dfesses. It fits like a set of J
harness. i
I
Now this new listener is a little
hit of trouble to wear. It has a ]
head band that takes the place of 1
* blind bridle. A large breastplate i
represents the collar and hames. The ?
aattery is fastened to a pair of lines 4
and they pass around to the hip '
pocket and serve as the surcingle? J
ind then there is a receiver and a (
transmitter and a volume regulator |
ind a static reducer and an antennea j
?to complete the horse 4PP&''el. 1
I have' been somewhat "jubus" >
about wearing this instrument around '
luring a thunder-storm, but to pro- (
tect myself against lightning, I am '
planning to tie a small chain to my '
coat tail and let it drag along behind
me like similar chains drag behind
big gasoline trucks. This chain
will serve as a ground-wire as well
as a possible static eliminator, But
to tell the truth, I didn't realize that
this old world was so fussy t-nd noisy
till I donned that deef contraption.
I he worst feature about this
"hearer" is the inability to determine
from whench came the sweet
voice that calls one or says a word
:>r two of taffy to him. Just last
night while at a party, I heard a
flapper say something that 1 felt was
directed to me, and before I finally
found out which one she was, I had
passed a corps of 17 beauties, asking
each one if she addressed me.
And there's some whistling doue by
the device ever now and then, and no
one has yet been able to decide why
or how the whistle whistles.
A deaf person should be pitied by
every living person who can hear
well. My idea of "down yonder" is
for a deaf man to be "up here"* and
be surrounded by a flock of bathing
beauties?all of whom are whispering
something to him?and he
can't determin whether they are saying
what he hopes they saying
or whether they are telling Ibfut his
shirt-tail is hanging out. Iber
once when a lady asked ine to
take a walk with her?and I said,
"No, thanks; I don't smoke"?and
it was at night too.
It does look like somebody somewhere
would invent a thing that
would not load a person down with
wires. and tubes and batteries and
springs?so's he could try to hear in
comfort. Most of our geniuses are
all the time doing something electrically
for the people who don't appreciate
their work. As much as we
know about electricity today, a firstclass
hearing device should not be
larger than a compact or heavier
than a watch.
Henry Ford*s Town Leads
Washington, May 19.?Dearborn,
Mich., littlest on the list, showed
the most spectacular gain among sixty-odd
cities of 50,000 to 100,000
population thus far reporting in the
1930 census.
Henry Ford's city, over the dividing
line with sixty to spare, is about
twenty-five times as large now as its
population was printed in the 1920
census.
The census has revealed that one
Porto Rican couple has 18 sons, all
living at' home. Another family has
been found with 31 children by three
marriages.

Mr. Taylor Unneighborty
The Justice store, operated in the
upper section of Fort Mill, by J. K.
Goudelock, is just now out of hand
M&O worth of groceries, for which
Mr. (ioudelock says he ha9 given up
hope of collecting anything, thanks
to the unneighborly conduct of a
man named K. C. Taylor, who came
:o the community several weeks ago
to buy timber* for a Oolumbia con-j
. em, which converted the timber in-,
to barrel staves. Before leaving
Kort Mill rather suddenly Saturday
morning, Mr, Taylor is also said to
?ave neglected to pay some eight or
ten laborers wages due them to the
iinount of something like $225. The
aborers will not lose the money due j
them, however. They got in touch
,vith the Columbia concern represent?d
by Taylor and the concern readily
igreed to pay them. One of the laborers,
a white man, said that Tay- j
or received a check Suturday to pay !
them for their work and took the I
heck to one of the local banks and ;
iad it cashed. The laborers waited
n front of the bank for Taylor to
reappear with their money, but Tayor
left the building by a side door, '
t is alleged, and hurriedly left town
n an automobile without telling any '
bf the party awaiting his return
