T/&n? Rooster I

/ Kinston, N. C., Jan. 27.?^Bill ClemKama
rooster wa, mourned to<?y.
The rooster wan a veteran of
'"any fights. lie won scoCe?, lost
0"ly one, according to Clemmons, and
that wan with a mule yesterday. He
"fought everything that walked,"
Cdenunonu said. "He whipped every
other^ rooster in the neighborhood,
whipping two dogg laat week, chased
my wife's cat ull over the place, attacked
a wooden-legged negro when
he came on the premises, took a couple
of digs at a carthorse. He got
too jaunty. He thought he was cock
of the universe. Yesterday he sailed
into a mule and spurred it on the
legs. At first the mule couldn't do
anything about it. "Jim"?that was
the rooster?darted out of the way
every time the mule kicked at him.
Hut after about five minutes Jim got
careless?got in the way of one of
the mule's heels. We picked him
out of a corn crib eight yards away,
and he was dead as a doornail.
Hig Business
'Someone handed me a clipping,
reading as follows:
"That the greatest issue of the Saturday
Evening Post in history used
6,000,000 pounds of paper, or 200 carloads;
120,000 pounds of ink or 4
carloads; and sixty 46-ton presses ran
day and night for throe weeks printing
it. On a flat bed press, old style,
operating 8 hours a day, it would have
taken 75 years to .print the circulation
of t'his one edition."
No doubt the foregoing is true,
since in the hey-day of The Post as
many as 200 pages were, printed as
one issue. Since most magazines and
newspapers print 50-50 reading matter
and advertising The Post has carried
more than 100 pages advertising.
And since a page in that -periodical
costs $8,000 to $10,000 it can be readily
reckoned that one issue, for advertising
alone, would be about one
million dollars.
Hut the radio, or something, is
playing havoc with the national magazines,
for after the last holidays The
Post cart ied only 12 to 15 pages advertising.
In fact, magazine advertisement-'
are a pretty good barometer
as to business conditions.? Monroe

A Scoop In Journalism
The city of Anderson has three!
crac king daily papers, besides sev-!
ernl weeklies in the small towns. A
remarkable record. The dailies, at]
least, seem to be booming. The lat- j
est ebullition of enterprise, game ex- j
-hibition, and spread-eagling, was the
January 15th edition of the Anderson!
Independent. Some pages may have!
escaped the count but we cor ruled \
about sixty. The Independent is nat- j
utall,\ proud of its native, newly in-)
augurated Governor Johnson, who tig- ;
ured extensively in the scoop. We
feel sure the young governor will]
measure up. A change for the better'
gubernatorial efficiency and achieve-1
ments is sadly needed. Medicores
have been drifting for some years.]

that will be worthwhile.?Calhoun '

The Innocent Thing
- A city girl was spending her summer
vacation on her uncle's farm. The
day of her arrival she went with him
to see his herd of cows. The girl gazed
with interest at the beasts, especially
one that was chewing its cud.
"Fine animal, that one," said the
:arnier, following the directoin of her
glance.
"Yes," replied the grrl, "but doesn't
it cost you a lot to keep her in chewing
gum?"
It is expected now that the decision
of the supreme cour\on the gold
cases will hardly be delfcered before
next Monday week.

Search Reveals
Peculiar Laws
11 may relieve the minds of some
New Yorkers to know thut it is im>
longer contrary to law in this State
to rise in a balloon for the purpose
of returning in a parachute, but how
sadly a need exists for further repeal
is demonstrated by continuing
restrictions which prohibit citizens
from racing a horse within a mile of
a court house, buying land from an
Indian, or advising a railroad mun to
quit his job because he hrfs to wear
a uniform. It is, furthermore, still
illegal to play golf on Sunday. '
The New York Community Trust,
which apparently has done a lot of
investigating to provide that it is better
for trustees not to be hampered
by inadaquate authority to meet unanticipated
circumstances, has compiled
a collection of prohibitions
which are still in the law, though to
enforce them literally would compel
some sort of revolution.
In'Massachusetts, for instance, one
cannot pull up mayflowers while in
disguise without severe punishment
though what one can do while not
in disguise seems mooted.
In Pennsylvania it is unlawful to
use a cannon "at any serenade or
any wedding," while in Michigan no
justice of the peace "shall hold any
court in any barroom." The same
state makes it a felony for any one
to incite Indians to go on the warpath,
but forunately, there is no
longer a statutory necessity to take
an annual census of the bees.
In Idaho it is a misdemeanor to fish
for trout from the back of an animal
)r to shoot at a bird from an interuroan
trolley car. In North Dokota no
person under 15 years of age may go
loser to an engine (railroad) than
lb feet, unless accompanied by parent
or guardian.
Ohio makes it a misdemeanor for
in instructor of roller-skating to ?eluce
a female pupil, and it is also a
misdemeanor if a stenographer di>
the character ot an employer's
lie ration.
West Virginia still has , a law
which forbids a physician to adminis-(
r a sleeping potion "to any female
per-on except in the presence of some
third pei son." North Carolina requires
t.hat twin beds in a, hotel room
mud he at least two feet apart.
Mat viand, however, has repealed
the law forbidding ministers to give
money for having persons contentMating
marriage directed to them by
aiiioad or hotel porters. South < ar
li'.ia still makes it compulsory for
railroads to carry free of cost any
ha by buggies which passenger? may'
bring on board. i
In Georgia, where a dentist is gulls'
of a misdemeanor if he is "guiity
if cruelty," it is required that every
oublic surf bathing beach be patrolled
oy an individual in a bathing sui* of
"bright solid red," with "life saver"
in white letters on his breast, and
wearing a leather harness around his,
rhest, such harness holding a rope
me-quarter inch thick and "not less
ban 200 feet in length."
It is known to all motorists who!
risit Connecticut, that all clocks pub-'
itdy displayed must indicate standard
ime; to indicate any other "intentionally
is unlawful in Washington
motor vehicles can not be driven on1
ii highway by an individual having
in his or her embrace another pers-1
on."
California insists by statute that
f mixed juries have to retire for the
light the sexes must be separated. ,
Half the States in the Union, the
( ommunity Trust people find, have
considered it a function of government
to. regulate the length of hotel
oed sheets. Kansas has made it un-,
lawful for intoxicated persons to have I
:harge of the "power of guidance"!
of any vehicle propelled by other than '
muscular power." Kansas, further-!
moie, may not eat, in public "snakes,,
iznrds, scorpions, centipedes or tar- "
intulas." TTiey may though, in pri-1
vate.?N. Y. Sun.

CORN PONE
Recipe for Making Old-FankfogJ
Bread From Corn.
(From The Yorkville Enquirer)
Here is the recipe for oldfashiouJ
corn pone, said Rev. C. E. Philip,
pastor of Ixmg Creek Baptist churck/
this morning. "I gQt it fiom
mother, Mrs. C. A. Phillips, of Ben*;
mer City, and I know what it i8
cause I have eaten it many a time"
The recipe given by Mrs. Phi%will
make a good size none, enough
for eight people, meaning eight good:
size chunks. Here it is:
"Take a half gallon good water
ground meal, one pint buttermilk, one
tablespoon full of salt, one tablespooj
full sugar, one-half teaspoonful soA'
mix to soft dough with warm water
pour into earthenware crock, and
place crock in vcbbo1 with warn"
water and let rise, all night or |fl
day, till cracks appear on top ol
dough, work down thoroughly as if
fresh dough, then place in deep iron
pan, or old time oven if available, and
bake till dark brown."
And if that one is hot satisfactory
here is one taken from the Philadelphia
Ledger as suggested by Mrs. A,
B. Scott, who is the Ledger's recipe
editor:
One cup cornmeal, 1 cup flour, 1 1-2
cups milk, 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons melt
ed shortening, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1
teaspoon salt, 4 teaspoons baking
powder.
Sift the cornmeal, flour, salt, sugar
and baking powder into bowl; add the
milk, melted shortening and wellbeaten
eggs; mix well. Brush pan
with a little fat, pour in the mixture
and bake in a hot oven 30 minuter.
Cut into squares with hot knife blade
and serve hot. A hot blade should be
used when cutting hot bread of any
kind.
A whipping post bill has been introduced
in trie Missouri legislature,
the lash to be applied "in a humane
manner to such extent" as may be
decreed by the trial judge.
