COTTON PICKING over
Is About Finished in Western
Portion County-Big Corn
Cribs-Tenants Satisfied.

The writer. learned from trip
made into the Oxberry community in
the western portion OF the county
this week that the cotton crop is al
most entirely gathered and, consoer-
ing the fact that & big crop has been
made, the finishing Of picking so
early is remarkable indeed. The fall
has been exceptionally fine and then
everybody has seemed to apply them
selves diligently to the task before
them. Big corn cribs and other Sur
rOundings that 60 to make a farmer
happy and prosperous are almost
everywhere evident. Upon inquiry
it was learned that the tenants gener-
ally were satisfied and that there
would not likely be the usual amount
Of moving among them.

RECITAL AT COLLEGE
Miss Kaske, Teacher Of Express
sion on Tuesday Moi
,S.r no"''

Miss E~.uueth M. KaSke proved
herself a real artist, since, even in hel
heaviest number her Interpretation
was an analyses such that it appealed
to the Indifferent because Of the
beauty of the elements and to the
thoughtful because Of the grandeur
Of the composite whole. "A Dream
OF 1.-THE Worlds Awakening" was a
delight to both the mature and i'm
mature in the audience.
The lighter numbers were executed
with a neatnesS and eXactneSS OF
detail that made them all word pic
lures as vivid as if done in oil on can
vass and, OF course, far more vital.
Clearly Miss Kaske has had the
very best Of training; and, what is
better, she is evidently a close student
of nature and life at first hand and
portrays it with wonderful insight.
In "Tradin' Joe" she unfolded true
to life the cOOtches of the bachelor
mind and the ficklenesS of fate. In
Mrs. Britzenhofer's Troubles, she
had fine opportunity to display her
skill in German dialect
and the peculiarities of that people.
In How Salvador Won'', she
revealed the Jockeys heart and pic
tured the race with vividnesS that
would have delighted a veteran
turfman.
The evening entertainment closed
with club swinging, during which the
audience went wild as the movement
took up the rythm Of Dixie which
was struck up on the piano.
Mrs. Clifton and Misses Lawrence
and Bonnell assisted Miss Kaske.
Mrs. Clifton always pleases her
audience; the piano does its best
when Miss Lawrence touches the
and the audience unwilling
~ allowed Miss BOnnell to take her
violin off the stage, though she left
them a saccharine Souvenir" of
melted melodies.

Eat all the good food you like. Quit
dieting. You don't have Co diet to
cure dyspepsia. In fact you can not
cure dyspepsia or indigestion that
way, but rather you must add
strength to the weak stomach by TAX
ing something that will digest the
food which the stomach can not
digest. Kodol is the only thing
known today that will do this, for
Kodol is made of natural digestive
juices found in a healthy stomach,
and it digeStS all food completely.
Kodol is pleasant to take, and is
guaranteed to give relief in any case
of stomach trouble. Sold by End

Each Dreadnought shell weighs $50
pounds, is discharged by 2G5 pounds

That means n mile in l 4-5 seconds.

York in an hour and a half, around
the world in 1919 hours and to the

gy as it leaves the gun is equal to
the force required to pull 10 or 20
5O-car freight trains of so tons to each

could draw train of loaded freight
cars four miles long. Scientists say
that If all the Dreadnought's guns
could be combined into one and fired
the projectile would never return to

Respect Cor German Policemen.

Herr Muerbe, Dresden school
master, on visiting Halle lately, went
up to a policeman, and touching his
hat, begged in n courteous tone to be
directed to his destination. The po
Nceman stared at him, and told him
that If he desired n reply he must
speak more respectfully-his interro,
gator must in fact take off his hat.
This was too much for Herr Muerbe
who asked the policeman not to be
nsolent. Legal proceedings followed
and the Court has decided that, while
Herr Muerbe was not obliged to take
off his hat when addressing a police
man, he must pay a fine of 10 marks
for using the word "insolent
