ESS9s985I thias, a Pythago-
\SSSsSaI rean of Syracuse,
VIZ was condemned to
die for plotting against Dionysius
| l. AS Pythias wished to arrange
his affairs, Damon offered to
Mace himself in the tyrant's
hands as his substitute, and to
| die in his stead should he not re-
| turn on the appointed day. At
| the last moment Pythias came
back and Dionysius was so struck
by the fidelity Of the friends that
he pardoned the offender, and
begged to be admitted into their
fellowship.
This, in brief, is the founda-
| ton of the great order now in
convention in Hendersonville-
1.-THE Knights of Pythias whose
motto, Friendship, Charity,
lBenevolence," was taught and
exemplifed by the Great
Teacher Himself.
The Lake City of the Noun
tains has been captured by the
gallant Knights of Pythias and
their fair ladies, and the town
likes the experience so well that
nothing would please her better
than to be captured some more!
For the thirtY-ninth annual con-
vention of the Grand Lodge
Knights of Pythias of North Car
olina is now in session in Hen
dersonville. There are present
representatives of the different
lodges of the State composing the
Grand Lodge, and 500 would be
a conservative estimate of the to-
tai attendance.
| Hendersonville has never had
the honor of entertaining more
truly representative body of mer
than these gentlemen Of the
Grand Lodge. AS to the ladies

flowers will have lost their fra.
GRANGE and the songs of the birds
will be stilled when they have
gone and left us alone, and the
only consolation we may have is
that many of them willreturn.
They will return, many of them
both Knights and ladies, for they
love Hendersonville and it's peo
pie. They leave with a regre-
which is fully shared by all thi:
toWn-but many will return anC
that is our solace.
The weather has been idea
during the convention. The
showers of last week were sent
to wash the world clean in pre-
paration for the coming of the
Knights. i

The first large shipment OF Miiki

port by the United States army
transport Dix. There are 5000 tons

vessel, which will be discharged at
the U. 8. Naval Station. This

The Dix was an object Of keen
interest to thousands OF japanese

port remained at Miiki, the big coal
mining port OF Japan and the prop
erty of the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha.
The transport is said to have been
one of the largest vessels that has
ever called there for coal. Miiki is
about seventy miles to the north

The Miiki coal Is new fuel for

the navy vessels and army trans

the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha was en-

shipments of coal were received into
the Philippines commencing with
the first of July. Heretofore the
coal used on U. s. army transports
and by the quartermaster's depart
ment throughout the Philippines
has been coming from Australia.
The transport officers are much
pleased iwth the improved loading

contrast with the slower methods
employed at Nagasaki. The Miiki

The Outlet.
One Of the most important parts Of
the drainage system is the outlet If
the drain empties into a ditch or
stream a stone bulwark should be
built up to keep the end tile from be
ing washed away. The drain should
enter the stream above the level of the
water If possible. When it enters be

The deeper the tile the farther their
effect will be felt on either side.
Tue size Of the tile depends upon the
SaH and the amount Of land to be
drained. The engineer who lays out

quite the size required.

let, as it is not so easily displaced by
freezing.
Many drains are built with an out
let in a box at the side of the road o.
next to neighbor's fence. Such an
outlet is not very satisfactory. but
sometimes it is the best that can be
provided The box should be we
built to keep out rubbish The mouth
of the tile in this as well as I'm other
forms Of outlets should be covered to
keep out small animals during dry
weather The bottom Of the box should
be at least a foot below the tile The
silt that settles here should be clean
ed out occasionally a much better
plan than the use Of a tile box is to co
operate with the road authorities or
with the neighhors and extend the line
of tile to some permanent outlet.
Laying the Tile.
1t rarely pays a farmer to lay his
own tile. but he should keep close
watch Of the men whom be hires to dc
the work. A little carelessness in lay
ing the tile may make the drainage
system practically worthless If at
any place the tile dips an inch below
the grade line, that inch will 6ll ur
with silt, and the capacity of the whole
system will be reduced that much
The old saying that a chain is nc
stronger than Its weakest link applies
with especial force to a tile drain. Nc
man can lay tile to grade accurately
by eye. even if there is water running
in the ditch at the time. Remember
that it is your money that is paying
for the drain and that it is your priv
ilege to have it put in as you want it
The only way to get the tile laid ex
actly to grade is to use targets. When
an engineer lays out a line Of the tile
he sets a row Of grade stakes, each
one marked with the depth the ditch is
to be at that point. When the ditch
is down nearly to the required point
targets are set up at these grade
stakes. A target consists of an upright
stick on each side Of the ditch with
a crossbar clamped to 1t. These cross
bars should be adjusted so that they
are level and just seven feet above the
grade line. For instance, If the cut
marked on the grade stake is four
feet the crossbar should be three feet
above the stake. After a number Of
these targets have been set a string Is
stretched across the tops Of them.
Then a measuring stick seven feet long
will Just reach from the string to the
correct grade line. With one man ia
hold the measuring stick and another
10 scrape out the bottom Of the ditch,
L can be dug to grade very accurately.
OF course both digging the ditch
and laying the tile should begin at the
Dutlet. Don't let the men stand on
the bank and lay the tile with hook.
Make them get down into the ditch /
md put them In by hand. standing on
hose already laid to hold them in
place. By handling each tile any |
tracked or imperfect ones can be dis
covered and thrown out. After the
lie are laid a little dirt should be
icraped from the side Of the ditch to
iold them n place. AS soon as the
whole line is in no time should be lost
