Master tor Kerahaw County. W. L. DePASS, Jr., Kirkland. ft A::orneye tor Plaintiff. -V 1 ~ , V, specd cr r,.:;T: t::;m sound C: ;r Tot F!y Register* 800 Mile* an Hour. ,, ^as'1'(*Kton1 I) C.?When you yell Wait! you expect your yell to catch up with the yelled-at person sooner than you could. But the speed of sound is exceeded by the flight of un insect, according to the scientist who timed the flight with a camera shutter. Hucing results: Sound, 1.CB9 feet per second, or a nuie in ;.,e seconds minus; insect, 1,200 feet per second, or the mile in four seconds plus Winner: insect, otherwise known us a species of deer hot fly. "The idea of an insect flitting faster than its buzz is a wild one, subject to taming by more scientific clocking," soys the National Geographic society. "Meanwhile the deer bot fly remains the speed champion of the world. Its speedometer would register about BOO miles per hour, if it had a speedometer and could fly for a solid hour. Man's swiftest inventions would be "also runs"; the airplane trailing along at about 400 in. p. h., and the racing auto at Z MJ m. p. h. Wings Make Speed. "Wings are a symbol for velocity, and nature awar.'s her speed records to flying creatures. The duck hawk, next to that streak-of-lightning insect, has been limed as the fastest living thing on wings. The speed of its cousrn in the eastern hemisphere, the Peregrine falcon, made it the ideal hunting hawk because it always overtook its prey. Other fliers which have such effectiveness in flight as to be the warplanes of the bird world are the eagle and the vulture. The well-named swift is one of the swiftest. The swallow, too, can figuratively swallow small distances whole in rapid flying. "Wings also give speed to what has been called the fastest finned creature?the flying fish. It can 'take off' with its tail and spread its fins for gliding in the air rapidly enough to escape becoming flsh food for its swimming enemies. Other Fast Ones. "Flying feet give speed to animal racers, such as the antelope, the gazelle, and the deer. To overtake them man had to use arrows and bullets. The ostrich, the emu, and the giraffe too rye fast afoot, usually outdistancing a horseman. The value of the hunting dog is its rapid pursuit of the rabbit, the fox. and the wolf, all of them speedy creatures. "Racing for fun and not for food is the job occasionally given to man's domestic animals, the horse and the dog.. Whippets can whip up a track speed of a mile in two minutes, and the greyhound can do as well or better. For short distances a horge can race about 40 miles an hoar. The fastest speed made by man is only about half that of the horse. The cheetah, a member of the cat family, however, is the fleetest of animal runners." House in Which Rabelais Lived Made Into Museum Metz, France.?The house where Francois Rabelais lived in Metz in 1547 has been converted into a museum. By a resolution of the Metz municipal council, the house will be restored and architects are studying ancient documents and engravings so the structure will be as it was when the writer inhabited it. A collection of relics, possibly manuscripts and ancient editions of the works of Rabelais, is being assembled for the new literary shrine which is expected to attract thousands of visitors in years to come. Rabelais lived in the house while serving as a physician in Metz. After the death of Francis I the writer became municipal doctor in that city and there he concentrated on the fourth book of "The Heroic Deeds of Gargantua and Pantagruel." Registrar Keeps Record of Life of School Pupils Providence, R. I.?Registrar Percival Norris has a file containing an account of every student who ever attended the Country Day school here. -Norris starts a file as soon as a" new student enters the school, saving clippings from newspapers and other sources. The clippings are augmented by photographs taken during the boy's school years. He keeps in touch with graduates by letter, constantly adding to' his clippings of former pupils?one of whom is a college president. Norris began his hobby at Lawrenceville, N. J., where he filled eight filing cases of clips. His Country day file, 'now occupying only three cases, is growing rapidly. Housewife May Violate the Sunday Blue Laws Bellefonte, Del.?Is housework really work? That question remains unanswered here, but repairing a leaky roof is a violation of the Sunday blue laws irt effect here. A home-owner was arrested for hammering on his roof on Sunday. City officials and-attorneys would not say whether the housewife who cooks the Sunday dinner, makes the beds and sweeps the floor is violating the blue law*. * ? ?" - ; : -rs "C t LEGE DECATERS FAVOR LAW CAREER With University Teaching as Close Second. Evanston, III.?If you are a prize winning debater in college, the chances are more than two to one that you'll become either a lawyer or a university professor, a survey of Florsheim debute prize, winners at Northwestern university for the last 14 years revealed. Since 11)23 u tolul of 67 Florsheim : debate prizes have been awarded, j The recipients of these annual ! prizes are the five or six Northwestern university undergraduate students, men or women, who do the most distinctive work In public debute and discussion throughout the academic year. Of this total. 14 are now engaged in the practice of law, while 13 are teachers in colleges und universities. Seven prize-winners are engaged in various capacities in industrial concerns, while six are business executives. Among the institutions at which the Florsheim debate prize winners are acting as teachers or heads of departments are Northwestern, Purdue, Harvard, Yale, Minnesota, New York and Western Reserve universities, North Carolina State, San Jose State and Smith colleges. In 1922 the lute Milton S. Florsheim, then president of the Florsheim Shoe company, established awards totaiing $i50 a year to encourage public speaking among college students. The first prizes were given in June, 1923. Mr. Florsheim died in December, 1C36. Son of Teachers En!?rs High School at Age of 9 Corvallis, Ore.?Tiny bespectacled Alexander Hull, Jr., who never went to grade school, but attended college classes, has entered high school here at the age of nine. Alexander was twenty-five months old when he knew the A B C's and I four months later he could write his name. When he reached the age of four?he could and did?read everything, occasionally knocking off a few minutes to recite the multiplication tables through twelve. When Alexander was six his father, who is a member of the general extension system at Oregon State college, let the boy enroll in his harmony class. The youth already had two years practice on the piano and could play Mozart D minor fantasia in concert. He was further advanced than the undergraduates in the class. The boy's parents are professional teachers and accomplished musicians. His father taught him music and Spanish and the mother instructed him in elementary subjects. They permitted him to collect a library on widely varied subjects. He was not permitted to attend grade school, as the parents believed a mentally advanced child is held back by the slowness and simplicity of average class instruction. His parents said they do not treat him as a prodigy and never permit him to overwork. Although below average in athletic skill, Alexander is much like other boys in that he likes to ride a bicycle and attend films?especially comedies. Speed of Pigeons Slowed by Radio, Tests Reveal Chicago. ? Experiments which show the effect of radio waves on homing pigeons may open up a wealth of new knowledge concerning the possible influence of radio on live organisms, including human beings. That is the belief of Commander E. F. McDonald, Jr., who has been conducting many tests with pigeons. McDonald said homing pigeons have been shown incapable of normal performance when released in the vicinity of high-frequency radio stations. Pigeons released near short-wave station W9XF, at Downers Grove, 111., while the transmitter was operating took ten minutes longer to fly thirty miles than pigeons released while the station was silent, he said. McDonald, a radio manufacturer, said he was keeping in touch with similar experiments being conducted by the Navy department "so that radio research engineers may pro* ceed with the findings as a basis for further research into the behavior of the radio vibrations of the spectrum." Trades in Gray Mare Pompton Lakes, N. J.?When John Bodani, Pompton Plains farmer, bought a new car he traded in his old gray mare for $60. The dealer had no trouble in selling the horse to another farmer?for the same price. Blue Eyes Preferred by College Students St. Louis. ? Gentlemen may prefer blondes, but students at Washington university here will take a blue-eyed brunette over all other shades. _ In a poll of 128 male students,' the blue-eyed brunettes won 58 per cent of the votes. Blondes got 36 per cent, and red-haired girls were third, with 6 per cent. A similar poll among girl students showed 60 per cent of the voters preferred brunette men.

I but there were flashes of form that showed both teams would offer some supurb competition t|ils season Camden's kick off was taken by Gilbert, Mount Airy fullback, who picked the ball up on the five and galloped to his own thirty-six yard line before lie was pulled down. After a five yard penalty for off-side ulld two unsuccessful pass attempts, (.illbert punted to Cox. Camden's brilliant little left end, who raced twenty yards to mid-fteld. A line buck netted two yards and an off-side penalty made it third and thirteen for the Bulldogs. On the next play, Clark Intercepted West's long pass, which was intended for Wooten, and carried the ball to the Camden 4y yard line before he was dumped by Cox. After picking np five yards on two successive smashes into the center of the Camden forward wall, Gilbert punted out to the Camden live yard line. Camden punted to mid-field and Gilbert romped back twenty yards to the Camden thirty. Crawford, Mount Alry's right half, was nailed for a five yard loss as the center of the Camden line broke through to break up the play. A half-splnner was good to the Camden twenty-nine yard line and Smith's lateral to Gilbert behind the line brought the Airy gang up to Camden's sixteen, where it was first and ten. A thirty yard touchdown fliug from Gilbert to G. Jones, who was all alone In the end zone, caught the Bulldogs flatfooted. Gilbert's placement kick for the extra point want wide and the quarter ondod with the mountain men out In front 6 to 0. As the second quarter opened, West raced eight yards to his own fortyeight where he was brought down by Clark, who played a bang-up defensive game for the invaders. Camden's forward wall crumbled on the next play, and West was thrown for a four yard loss to make It second and fourteen ,A pass. West to Wooten, was good for nine yards and a buck into the center was Inches short of a first down. But the Bulldogs were rolling and West went around right end to carry the leather to the Mount Airy thirty. A razzle-dazzle play that broke through the left guard made It second and five, but West fumbled and recovered for a three yard Joss. A pass, West to Wooten, went to the visitors sixteen and another pass, West to Lynch, over the right side of the Airy line, was good for a touchdoWn.

Gilbert to Crawford, was good to Camden's twenty-five. Gine smashes advanced the ball to the Camden fifteen, where it was fourth and one. The crowd had a tense moment when Gilbert's twenty yard heave to Jones looked good, but again Cox's alert defensive tactics saved the day as he batted the ball down to end the scoring threat. With seconds to play, the Bulldogs doggedly hung on to the ball and tho initial half ended with the Gold and Black hanging to a one point lead. Camden completely dominated the play in the second half, as West and Cox carried the ball from the Camden forty-nine to tho Mount Airy thirtyfive yard marker in three successive plays. The attack bogged down, however, when Camden's forward wall was unable to spring West into the clear. Mount Airy took possession of the ball on their own thirty-five. Gilbert's long pass, Intended for Jones, was intercepted by West who galloped to the visitors fifteen before they were able to pull him down. Mount Airy got possession on a fumble by D. Lynch and Gilbert's punt was returned by West to the Invaders tvtenty-slx. West passed to Wooten, who wus forced out on the Mt. Airy sixteen yard line.
