( - 16 sb. j | Phone ^ TIMELY TOPICS Celebrities no doubt often imagine that they an? known, by tholr pictures ut U'ual, to nearly everybody, bufA uHuully thoy are not. Greta Oarbo found that out not long ago when she went to the Los Angeles immigrutlon bureau on business. When who told who Hho wuh the clerk naked: "Have you any identification?" Sun Diego, Calif., la "saying It with flowers" in u big wuy. At the expowition now in progress there a 300aero florul deinonatratlon la depleting history from Hpuniah aettleinent daya to the preacut in a gorgeous. floral und architectural exhibit. in 1331 It took four houru to go from llloomfleld, N. J., to Newark by canal, Going by the new aubway, bull) hi the old canal bed, It will take only 12 mlnutea, and the fure will be five cen I a. During the laat few moniha it haa been rather forcefully demonatruted that kidnaping in'the United Htutea dooan't pay. The prompt capture of tin- kldnatM-ra of the Woyerheuaer boy recently again illustrates the futility ot I Ida moat deviliah of all formp of banditry. The U. 8. Treaaury'H "conscience fund," mrtde up of contributions from persona who have cheated the government and later repented, now amounta to more than $618,000. The luat remittance of $20 was from a penitent who wrote that he "wanted to get right with God." An old 'story about Benjamin Franklin la again going the rounda, to the effect that when he wanted to marry a certain girl, her mother objected on the ground that Ben was a printer. She did not object to his trade, but mild that as there were already two printing shops in the country, she didn't think there was room for a third one which he wauled to start. According to the Pathfinder, the government-owned implement works at Perth, Australia, which had a monopoly of the manufacture of farm j machinery, has been closed after suf Coring heavy losses. Private manufacturers are supplying this machinery at lower prices, while the government's properties will he sold for Junk. Another object lesson in government operation. Studies by the Census Bureau reveal some interesting facts about longevity in the Cnited States. At the last census there were 2,500 women 100 years old of over, but only 1.102 men. While Negroes represented only 0 per cent of the total population. they showed 2,107 centenarians, as against only 1,180 whites. Clover Wants No Booze York, June 23.? York county has 10 whiskey HtoroR, located In Hock Hill, York and Fort Mill, hut Clover, ranking next to Hock Hill in size, lias yet no liquor store and alt efTorts to establish one there have been frustrated by objections lodged with the State Tax commission. The ground for the latest protest was that the proposed store was too near the city school. Strong sentiment against having a whiskey store in the town is said to exist in Clover and advocates of such an establishment art- having no easy lime to find a site that will not give some ground for protests. Tlie 10 whiskey stores already in operation in York county arc as follows. In Hock Hill, six; York, two; Fort Mill, two. But Who Else Wants A License We tear that the refutation and diann Icr of many dealers have not been carefully chocked. An applicant for a liquor liia-n.se should not be- allowed to sell liquor until bis character ami his record has been carefully invest igated. Anyone can obtain recommendations and petitions. When Tom Brown, of Marion, applies for a liquor license, officials Issuing licenses should get in touch with the mayor, the county sheriff, the chief of police and leading citizens, in order to determine whether or not Tom Brown is likely to obey the law or to flout it. As the matter now stands we find men operating liquor stores, under the license oJThlvt* state, who have, for | years, sold bootleg liquor, boldly and unlawfully. Can we expect enforcement of the new law when a license is given to a man who followed bis trade"' without a license? So far as this writer is concerned tin- law loses its force when a crook is given a license to do something he was brazen enough to do when it was mi la w ful. The bootlegger has not reformed. He had no respect for the former liquor law. and he has none for the present liquor law. So?what?? Marion Star. Flood damage reported from the rich western section of Japan, due to the-sudden rise in rivers there, property damage Is estimated at $11,600,000, with 71 lives lost.

There are 6 041 magazines In America that you have never heurd of -approximately three for every dally newapaper. And there are hundredH of thousand or people reading them. Doe* it make sense that there should be a magazine called Terrff trlul Magnetism & Atmospheric Klectrlclty? Or that there should be enough people worked up about counterfeit coin* to support the Natlonul Counterfeit Detector?

FATHER FORGET8 Linton, (ton: I am saying this ait you lit- usWmp, oiio little paw crumplo<l under your cheek and the blond curia stickily wot on your dump forehead. 1 have stolen into your room alone. Just u few ininutea ugo, ub 1 Mat reading my paper In tho library, a milling wave of remorae wept over inc. Guiltily 1 came to your bedaide. Tbcao are the tbinga I waa thiuking, mod; 1 bu<l been croaa to you. I acoldcd you ua you were drowning for school because you guvo your face merely a dab with a towel. I took you to taak for not cloaulng your ahoea. I called out gpgrily when you threw some of your things on the floor. t) At the breakfnat 1 found fault, too. You apllled thinga. You gulped down your food. Yuo put your elbowa on the table. You apread butter too thick on your bread. And ua you marled Off to play and 1 made for train you turned and waved your haVptl and. called, "Good-bye, Daddy!" and 1 frowned, and aaid in reply, "Hold your ahouldera back!" Then it began all over again in the late afternoon. Ah I came up the road I apied you, down on your knees playing inurhlea. There were holes in your stockings. 1 humiliated you before your boy friends by marching you ahead of me to the house. Stockings were expensive?and if you hud to buy them you would he more careful! Imagine that, son, from a. father! Do you remember later, when I was reading in the library, how you came in, timidly, with a sort of hurt look In your eyes? When I glanced up over my paper, impatient at tho interruption, you hesitated at -alio door. ) "What 1b it you want?" I snapped. You said nothing, but ran ajcross In one tempestuous plunge/ andthrew your arms around my neck und kissed me, and your smull arms tightened willi an affection that God hud set blooming in your heart and which even neglect could not wither. And thou you were gone, pattering up the stairs. Well, son, it was shortly afterwards that my paper slipped from my hands and a terrible sickening fear came over me. What lias habit been doing to,me? The habit of finding fault, of reprimanding?this was my reward lo you for being a boy. It was not that 1 did not love you; it was that 1 expected too much of youth. It was measuring you by the yandstick of my own years. And there was so much that was good and line, and true in your character. The little heart of you was as big as the dawn itself over the wide hills. This was shown by your spontaneous impulse to rush in and kiss me good-night. Nothing else matters tonight, son. 1 have come to your bedside in the darkness and I have knelt there, ashamed! it is a feeble atonement; I know you would not understand these things if I told them to you during your waking hours. But tomorrow I will be a real daddy! I will chum with you, and suiter when you suffer, and laugh when you laugh. 1 will bite my tongue when impatient words come. I will keep saying as If It were a ritual: "He is nothing but a boy?a little boy." 1 am afraid I have visualized you as a man. Yet as 1 see you now, son, crumpled and weary in your cot, I see that you are still a baby. Yesterday you were in your mother's arms, your head on her shoulder. I have asked too much, tod much.?W. 1,. Burned in People's Home Journal. In an election held in three counties.

Only Town in World to Take Name From Murder Probably the only town In the United States?perliMjMi It) the world?that takes Its name from a murder Is an Ohio village?Postboy, a few miles bolow Newcomerstowii. WO* the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The murder occurred more than 100 yeara ago, on September 0, 1825. Young William Cartweel wus carrying the mall from Westchester to CoshoctA when he was shot to death from behind by a man hiding in the woods that skirted the road. A man by the utuuq $ Jonnsou, hunting nearby, heard the shot and came running to the aceu?. There lie found the boy dead, his Aftll hag rilled, and saw the robber-murderer dis appearing down the road. Johnson gave the alurm, hut was himself arrested and charged with the crime. Hitter toward the perpetrator of such a crime, the farmers would have lynched Johnson except for the fact that the slmeprlnts In the road did not tally with l?is own. , Held pending further investigation, lie told the sheriff that although he had seen the mi'.fderer at a distance he could recognize him. So the sheriff assembled all the men In the county, ranking them in two lines at the Jail. Slowly Johnson walked between the two rdWs of men, scrutinizing each one who might meet the description. Stopping before one he said, "That's the man/4' "You're a liar," snapped the accused, hut he was trembling. The man was tried and convicted, and Just before walking up the steps to the gullows confessed to the crime. Tecumseh "Fired" Wives Who Could Not Make Good Tecumseh, chieftain of the Shawnees, had a habit of leaping into matrimony and after a short wedlock dismissing his wife when she failed in one of his exacting demands. Although generous, Just and kind, and no matter how fond he might be of her, he would give his wife a ticket of leave if she proved remiss In one responsibility. For example, observes a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, upon returning to Ohio after ids trip to the South, he married one of the most beautiful women In the Shawnee nation?Mamate, who was half white. Soon afterward he asked her to make a paint pouch out of materials he furnished. When she replied that she couldn't make It herself but would get some one to do it for her, Tecumseh Immediately ordered the return of the muterlals, remarking that he would save her the trouble of seeking assistance, as he could do It himself. He then gave her some farewell presents and dismissed her?for good. It was their divorce? Just like that. Clouds Guard Hidden Treasure "Old Morgan," a narrow bank of clouds which sometimes hangs over the length of Bermuda, guards treasure burled In the Islands. According to a Bermuda legend, the formation is the spirit of Sir Henry Morgan, notorious pirate and one-time governor of Jamaica. Which of Bermuda's treasures he guards Is a moot question, for a number of islands in the chain are dug up even today by men searching for pirate gold. Cross island, In the Great Sound, has, Bermudians say, a treasure left by a grounded Spanish ship. A cross placed on the Island in line with two others In Bermuda once Justified this belief, though no treasure has ever been found. . The Black Hills The name Black hills Is a literal translation of that given to these hills by the Sioux Indians. In the Dakota tongue It was "Paha Sapa," and alluded to the dark and somber aspect of these heights as seen from the plains. These hills really deserve to he called mountains, as the highest peak has an elevation of 7,242 feet aboTc sen level, which Is higher uuiu any elevation in the Appalachian or Ozark' ranges. And there are other peaks with altitudes of G,000 feet or more. Location of Coal Beds The geologically oldest rocks In which coal beds are known to occur are of Mlssisstppinn age. The coal measures of Pennsylvania are of Pennsylvania age. The carboniferous formations, which include the Misslssipplan and Pennsylvnnlan rocks, extend to northern Pennsylvania and beyond them to the north are only Devonian rocks, or those of greater geologic age, none of which are coal-bearlng.? Washington Star. ^ Enemies of Starlings Among tlie enemies of starlings may be mentioned any of the good-sized hawks, the little owl, the weasel and the gray squirrel. Mammals such as the weasel and squirrel attack the nests especially. Several types of birds, which are natural enemies of the sparrow, hut not of the starling, because of the lattor's greater size and pugnacious ness, are the rook, the magpie and the Jay. Islands Owned by U. S. The number of Islands owned, hut outside the boundaries of the United States proper is estimated at 0,000. is land Is not so easy to define. Frequently the larger oceanic islands are surrounded by Innumerable Islets. There ure about 7.ooo islands In the Philip pine archipelago alone.
