The Rev. Floyd H. Adams, the new
minister of the Hammond Baptist church

when asked for his first impression.
The Rev. Adams will conduct the
services in the Baptist church tomor-
row. His sermon subject for the eleven
o'clock services will be In the Be
ginning Gid" For the evening serv-
ices at eight o'clock the subject will

o'clock in the evening respectively.
The Rev. Coulter To Leave.

tion, but he saw big opportunities in
Hammond and in this region and the
field appealed to him. The call was

TRUST AIPS PLAN
IN THE BUD
Young Auto Manufacturer
Is Held Up in Work
by Producers.

Irving Betz has eight automobiles in
the course of construction which can
not be completed until he is able to
purchase the necessary stearing gears
Betz says that the automobile trust
is opposing the plan OF his company
to sell direct to the consumer. He says
that one company will say they can
sell to him on account of the position
of this company which buys large
quantities of his cars and that company
will not sell to him on account of the
opposition of another company which
buys a large number of steering gears
So he Is sent from one company to
another and no automobiles can be
built withut steering gears he is pre-
vented from going ahead with the
manufacture of his cars.
He says that he is working on
a plan to buy number of these parts
and believes that he will be successful.

wreck the Central of Georgia train
from Savannah, near here, yesterday

ming slowly in rouning a dangerous
curve. Investigation showed that
rails had been tilted by lacks" so
that If the train had been running at
full speed all the cars would have been
pitched down twenty foot embank-
ment. The train carried considerable

TOBACCO AND LONGEVITY.

A Pennsylvania man who always
made 1t practice to 60 to bed with
a chew OF tobacco In his mouth.
which he invariably swallowed dur.
ing the night, has answered the final
summons at the age Of 100. His ply.
stefan is reported as saying that the
tobacco acted as a stimulant and
thereby prolonged the patients life
1t Is possible that this may be true
but doubtless there will be plenty Of
persons who will decline to accept
the physicians view of the matter.
Whatever may have been the effect
of nigntly diet OF tobacco In this
particular case, the plan Is hardly to
be commended to the general public
as an aid to longevity. Life IL sweet
but the vast majority of us would
not care to attain the century mark
by any such heroic process. With
the average person the Pennsylvania
mans habit would conduce to a shor,
life rather than to long one. The
fact that he lived to 100 years under
such a repellant nocturnal regimen is
illustrative of the oft.repeated apnor
ism, I'VE are fearfully and wonder,

in our capacity to absorb toxic sub
stances.
That the element OF nicotine I'm to-

no doubt. That tobacco on occasions
