HE MAY BE ABOLISHED
(From The Shelby Dull^ Star)
/
One of ihu latest thlngttinot to worry
about in ibo throat of the 'Seemait
minister of economics that after the
war gold will bo abolished. Germany
has Hi tie and was mainly atolen from
conquered fountrloH. The United States
jjij? about $20,000,000,000 worth or
gold, some of ll being kept In safety
for other countries.
Ia?i (he financial authorities do any
worrying over the threat of this Fritz,
who announced plana for Germany to
rule the world's markets. He can't
abolish wheat and corn; he can't abolish
the American farmer. There are
hundreds of other tlOnga which he
can't abolish, Including gasoline, oil,
coal, copper, cows and bogs. He can't
wave bis band, speak with an accent
coming from the stomach, and abolish
lumber, cement, automobiles, airplanes.
milk and butter, wool and
cotton He can't blandly abolish the
Florida and California citrus crops
lie can't abolish the American Coiigre^a
and the Army, Navy and Air
corps.
The German accent coming from the
stomach is a little strained now, for
the German stomach Is somewhat
strained Substitutes for food don't do
the digestive system any good. German.*
has had to abolish many uecuasar*
articles of food and clothing and
substitute peculiar things for them.

A BIT ABOUT TURTLES
UUKYtt* K&DKH
or our true turtles there are three
common hphcIob, though there are over
four hundred that belong to the
Chelonla order, or toothleaa reptiles.
The hawkblll, the green and the loggerhead
are well known| They have
tough, leathery skins, or plates, as
they are usually called, which Is really
a horny shell or series of shells.
The hawkblll turtle has thirteen
plates of shell, the central ones, trlau.
Kular. six or seven Inches wide and
weighing eight pounds or more Instead
of the plates being Joined together
by their edges, so as to ipake
one piece of shell, they are tain*
tied off at posterior margins and overJap
each other, like the shingles on
a roof. From these plates the most
beautiful tortoise shell is made and
used for decorative purposes all over
the world.
In earlier days many a shipwrecked
crew round life-saving sustence In turtle
meat and turtle soup and large
quantities of turtle were carried on
sailing ships.
Turtles live to be very old and attain
great sUe. One captured and taken
to Kngland weighed 560 pounds
and its shell measured fifty-five Inches
In length. Another, sold in London,
weighed S70 pounds.
Our land turtle Is usually herbivorous.
His neck Is retractile, often
drawn back Into his shell until he
seems to have no neck at all. His
shell Is not convex like that of his
brother who lives in the water. Instead
It is flattened and it only pat tly
ossified. Hut all turtles have the
tough, leathery skin. And their twisted
legs and club shaped feet are what
probably gave their name, for tortoise
comes from the French word, "tortis,"
which means twisted.
The terrapin Is a fresh water tortoise
common along the Atlantic
coast. It is seldom more than six or
seven inches in length of shell. Un- like,
others it is bright and varied in
color. On the land it is slow in motion
but once in the water it moves
with surprising swiftness, and woe
he unto the tiny fish or frog that comes
into its path when it is hungry.
The snapping turtles have long
necks that dart out like a flash and
withdrawn Just as quickly and often
their prey disappears with it.
Dull, aw*kward and with slow-hitching
gait, the mud turtle makes his
way across the flats, but here again
X'u i in e limes its utam; ucucaiu >?
drab of shell. For these same creatures
have given much of beauty and
of food to mankind and in return
mankind should be considerate of
them.--Our Dumb Animals.
FIRST DEFENSE AGAINST FIRE
The public at large has been educated
to the need for modern building
codes dealing with fire prevention.
control and protection. Practically
all of the larger cities have more
or less adequate codes In effect. And
the smaller communities of the country
nave shown a praiseworthy Interest
in developing the passing codes
suited to their needs during lato
years.
However, the citizens and the public
officials must he on guard against
the mistake of believing that .once a
new code has been legalized, or an
old code modernized, there is nothing
more to worry about. For, in far Loo
many instances, codes are dead lette;s
on the statute books. They are
only half-heartedly enforced, or not!

GIRL FLIER8 ARE PROVING t
TO BE A-1 MECHANICS
WnahlnKton, Aug. 2.?'Men may welt
auk and Uncle Sain among them?
"What are women going to be up to
next?"
For right now they are developing
an interest In greasy, oily motors.
Mauloure or no manicure, thoy are
finding It fun to tinker with the
wheel^ that go around.
This Ih coming to light in the application*
women are making for the
newly organised Women Flyers of
Amortofc which the founder-president,
Miss Chelle Jauls of New York, doscribed
today aa a non-profit women's
reserve aviation corps.
Here to further plans for recrultipg.
a nation wide corps of women
with a hankering to fly and desire
to "stand steady" if needed in national
defense. Miss Janis said alio
was surprised at the many applications
from women interested In mechanics.
They don't want merely to learn to
fly, but to know all about airplane
motors and how to fix them.
It may bo that aviation will slfow
that women are motor-minded." said
Miss Janis, a crisp, alert, dark-eyed
young woman. "Men Instructors tell
me that if women" are mechanical-j
minded thoy make good mechanics."
This should Interest Uncle Sam for,
said Miss Janis, one objective is to
train women in aviation so that if
there is ueed they can take over
non-combatant Jobs and release men
for fighting."
"Women could fly bombers, but wo
don't think they should." she said.
"But there are many tilings they can
do?fly the mails, supply ships, air
ambulances. They can handle weather
reports.
"They could work in aviation factories.
Women who are skillful in
mechanics could serve as ground work
instructors and teach men beginners.
Yea. We are planning to do just that."
The women flyers, directed by a
six-woman board and founded in June,
has about 750 members?women doctors,
a woman plumber, actresses,
school teachers, telephone operators,
and debutants.
Miss Janis explained that arrangements
were being made with aviation
fields throughout the country to give
the members flying instruction at a
moderate flat rate. The organization
is supported by membership fee and
a small profit on optional equipment,
she saiu.
OLD TIME POLITICS
Greenwood Index-Journal.
At a political speaking at Warm
Springs. Georgia, last Saturday, ardent
and over-heated followers of
Candidate 'Gene Talmadge and Candidate
Abit Nix indulged in a good
old time fisticuff ?and broke up the.
speaking for ten minutes while peace
officers and others tried to subdue
the fighters.
It was a hot day and tempers were
hot and the fighting must have been
hot work. Fighting with fists, the cave
man style, is hot work at any time
but at noon on a day like Saturday,
It must have been hotter work than
pulling fodder in mid-August. f
It all started when Candidate Talmadge
wanted to know where the
Nix crowd was that had been advertised
as coming down to make trouble
for Talmadge. A large group stool up
an.l the Talmadge whoopers made for!
them Noses began to bleed from
fist contacts and a gorgeous row was
on.
The affair must have been a replica
of the hot titties South Carolina
had fifty years ago.

GOING TOO FAR
A Mid-Western university has recently
notified- a number of former
students that they wftl not be admitted
this fall It becomes a case of
radicalism playing too prominent a
part in the college class rQ^m. Some
colleges knowingly accept communism
within the ranks where groups of Impressionistic
youngsters act radical
to be different or cause a disturbance.
Many of them do not honestly believe
In it. Many schools have fought this
situation and not with a trace of hysteria
or "down with them." It Is displaying
sound sense to convince the
student that democracy is tho ideal
government and if he desires to fob
low antis /ind Isms ho should not do
it at the expense of tbe state that Is
educating him! All of our readers believe.
in free speech and the personal
pursuit of happiness, if that Is what
the young radical wants, but as taxpayers
they don't want to help pay
tho expenses while the propaganda is
spread.?Pee Dee Advocate.
