Soldiers Reclaiming Land
McGrath, Minn., June 3.?Every
major engagement of the American
Expeditionary Forces in the world is
represented by 46 former fighters,
who, disabled and receiving government
training, are engaged in reclaiming
a tract of 3,500 acres of
land near here, title to which has been
placed in the veterans'^giames. It is
the first project of its kind in tho
states. The tract has been plotted
into forty and eighty atre farms. It
has been suggested thai the- sites be
named after some of the important
battle scenes of the frar, such us
Chateau Thierry, Belleau Woods, St.
Mihiel, the Argonne , and others. I
I However, some fighters object that
their various wounds >and ailments
are sufficient reminder* of their experiences.
Life on the tract is similar to army
life. There are bunk apd chow halls
and the squad arrangement for work.
The men settled herniate in April,
coming from the University of Minnesota
agricultural school where
they were studying under government
supervision. In fact they still
are being paid for vocational training
as their courses stipulate that a
certain period be devoted to practical
application of their schooling.
They are paying for the land in
* installments from the salary of $100
a month each receives.

> ilies, are being housed in large com^
munity buildings uritil separate
houses can be built. It is planned to
* build a school, store and church on
1 the property when the farmers have
become settled.
, When the tract had been plotted
the veterans were grouped in units
to begin clearing land. The units
work on each man's farm one week.
The tract lying in territory developing
rapidly as a rich dairying and
farming center is chiefly burned-over
land, unfit for reforestation and, in
its present shape for agriculture.
The new farmers present a unique
assembly of all nationalities. Some
were gassed, others shell-shocked,
others wounded by bullets. Then
there is "Frenchy," who had a bayonet
thrust through his stomach, but
is now clearing land and looking
brightly toward the future.
Opens New Branch
C. C. Pearce & Co., well known pro- (
duce dealers of Columbia, will soon
have a branch establishment in Asheville.
The following item from the Spartanburg
Journal will be read with interest:
"The Pearce-Young-Angel company,
dealers in fruits and produce,
are opening a branch store at Asheville.
T. C. Young, manager of the
local store, is moving his family to
Asheville today for the summer. Mr.
Young will go back and forth between
Spartanburg and Asheville. H.
D. High, who has been manager of
the Union store of the comuanv. will
go to Asheville as manager. G. H.
Baugh, who has been here as shipping
clerk for some years, has gone (
to Asheville in that capacity. This j
makes the sixth wholesale store be- |
longing to the chain. The stores now
in operation are the ones at Columbia,
the parent store; Greenville,
Greenwood, Union, Asheville and J
Spartanburg."
Marion Convicts
Father And Son
Marion, June 1.?After deliberating
for about an hour and a half the
jury returned with a verdict of guilty
in the case of Thomas Turner, father,
and Mack Turner, son, charged with
accessory after the fact in killing ot
Edwin White, with recommendation
for mercy for the elder Turner.
Judge S. W. G. Shipp, presiding at
this term of court, sentenced Thomas
Turner to six months' imprisonment
and Mack Turner to one year.
The case began yesterday morning.
Most of the time today was taken up
with the arguments of attorneys. The
judge completed his charge at 4:25
and at 5:55 o'clock the jury returned
with a verdict. A large crowd of
spectators filled the court room
throughout the entire proceedings.
Unique Idea Bring* in Money
Berlin, June 2.?It was observed
recently in a small station on the
German-Polish border that the people
were buying very large quantities of
German newspapers. This was attributed
at first to a desire to absorb
the German point of view on the
part of the Poles, but some sceptics
insisted upon an investigation.
The fact was brought to light that
a group of ingenious Poles was purchasing
German newspapers at current
prices and reselling them as
waste paper with nearly 100 percent
profit. The paper is pulped and resold
in Russia where it is again used
as newsprint.
It is said the originators of the idea
have made much money.

Taking to Athletic*
Constantinople, June 2.?Turkish
women are taking to modified athletics
in an increasing degree. Field
games, indoor gymnastics, and crosscountry
walking are booming favorite
pastimes. At the annual May
sports here, two Constantinople girls
completed a cross-country walk of 35
miles in 9 hours, setting a record for
Turkey.

Scientific Management
In Scandinavian Kitchen
Stockholm, May 31.?Co-operation
and scientific management have
reached the kitchen in Scandinavia.
The caloric contents of the market
casket are no longer dependent on
rhance or the persuasive eloquence
>f the grocer and butcher, hut regulated
by culinary science.
The annual congress of Northeri)
Housewives' Union, attended by dele'ijates
representing some 50,000 Scan-'4
Jinaviun and Finr.ish members of the
league of Swedish Housewives, the
Danish Housewives' Association, the
Norwegian Home Welfare Association
and the Martha Union of Kinland,
has just adjourned in Stockholm
after a successful session where
most of the modern problems of the
modern housewife v^ere deliberated
and discussed at length. There were
no theoretic or revolutionary measures
on the agenda, only practical
problems such as face any housewife
any day of the week.
These housewives' unions have exerted
considerable influence in dealing
with servant questions and regulating
market prices on necessities.
Thus the Swedish Hnrinor the
war and during the hard times following
established cooperative stores
and formed buying associations that
exercised a strong regulating effect
on the price level of household necessities,
especially foodstuffs.
The congress just closed adopted
resolutions to arrange for a vacation
course of instruction in domestic
science and other matters affecting
the home at the Aas Agricultural
School in Norway, where students
will receive instruction in various
household duties under capable instructors
and will witness demonstrations
of the latest methods of running
a modern home.
Mrs. Agnes Ingelman, president of
the National League of Swedish
Housewives, said in an address to the
delegates that women nowadays hav#
to keep in touch with politics, public
administration and legislation affect in
gthe home. They must get together,
she said, and work for the
safeguarding of the home, as for instance
in its building and fitting up,
in arranging home exhibitions and
stimulating public instruction in domestic
sciences and in establishing
employment bureaus, libraries and
day nurseries.
Excavations Begun on
Ancient Site of Colophon
Athens, June 2.?American scientists
have begun excavations upon
the ancient site of Colophon, in Asia
Minor. The work is being conducted
jointly by the Fogg Museum of Art,
of Harvard University, and the American
School of Classical Studies at
Athens, the former represented by
Miss Hetty Goldman of Bryn Mawr,
and the latter by Dr. Carl W. Blegen
of Yale. Colophon lies about half
way between Smyrna and Ephesus.
The school hns awarded its two annual
fellowships, each carrying $1,000
for a year. One goes to Franklin
Clatk Fry, of Hamilton College,
and the other to Phillip Haldane Davis,
of Princeton University. These
men will reside in Athens next year
as students of the school.

London, May 15.?Economy is no
longer to he the keynote of cour
functions at Buckingham Palace. No
more "economy courts," as they wen
called, are to be held. These were cs
tablished by their majesties after the
war to set fashionable society a much
needed example in curbing extrava
ganee. The seal of royal approval %v
has now again been bestowed on court
trains. Indeed no women can be pre a
sented at court who does not wear
them. Of course as a man the Lord
Chamberlain cannot presume to be a ,l'
expert on fashionable feminine dress.
but it is one of his many official du j'1
ties to lay down the rules and regulations
to which women must conform * '
at the most exalted of court functions.'
That is one of the things for which l"
he is paid $15,(100 a year. He has t
be a peer besides to qualify for t h ^
exalted office which is accounted
among the political plums that th
Prime Minister has to give away. Tli 1
present lord Chamberlain is in t h
top class i f tli<" peerage, lie is th V
Duke of Atholl.
By restoring the court train he ha?
earned the blessings of the fashion- "X
able dressmakers. But they won! I
have lengthened their blessings if h. "
had lengthened the trains. Before th '
war three yards was their regulatio
length, while Queen Victoria didn * l'|
consider four yards too long. By th
new regulations they need be only tw > ,
yards in length and should not exten 1
* V
more than 19 inches from the heel
of the weaver when standing. -r
To walk backwards before royalty
in a train three yards long without
getting tangled up in it, imposes i
severe tax on tVie agility and skill of
not a few socially ambitious women.
Queen Mary is a very kind woman and v
she would naturally wish to spare her
sex making exhibitions of themselve . *
Hence she was in favor of the shoi u r
length for trains.

Trotzky Qualifies as Officer
a
Moscow, June 2.?Ta.'on Trotzky. j.
the Bolshevik War Minister, desirous 1,
of perfecting himself in military
technique, has completed a course in i
the statr college of the Red Army, f
He has passed the standard cxamina- j;
tions and is now qualified as an of- $
ficer. The examinations were given ?
him by officers of the old Russian
army. ii
How Trot/.ky, who is one of the r
busiest men in Russia, f> and time to 9
do this has been a surprise to his <j
more easy-going associates in th?e
Soviet government. He works from ii
early morning until the evening, but a
takes time for regular exercise, the *
study of languages and voice culture. e
He has develoned the vocal nhilitloa b
of a Hold marshal, and when called
upon to address thousands of troops
in the open air, his strident voice is j1
heard even by the rear ranks. 15
I*on Trotzky has developed great
executive ability and he never con- ^
corns himself with petty details, lie (
exacts from his subordinates the
most meticulous precision. He keeps
appointments promptly, thereby d f c
fering from other Soviet officials, j
and he confines his business dealings
