THE HISTORY

The delivery of the County His.
tory is now taking place, and will
be pushed as fast as one person
can to it. For Crabbottom the deliv-
cry will be made from the postohice
at Crabbottom, April 6. 1t was
expected that the canvass of the
county would be complete by this
time. Some canvassing still re-
mains, and this will unavoidably
delay the full delivery somewhat.
The number of books not yet spok-
en- for is now less than one hundred .,
and orders from outside the county
come in almost daily. Where nee
essary, convenient arrangements
can be made with those citizens of
the county who wish the book but
have not yet subscribed. Extra
copies have been taken by 81 par
ties. Others wishing more than
one will please order early.
Before searching into the topics
on family history every reader of
the book should first look at the
table of contents and then read
carefully the pages from 24l to 249.
If this matter were not given in
tabular form, the book would cover
at least 600 pages instead of 419
and could not possibly be sold I'M
der S..
Price, S2.75. When sent by mail |
outside the county, $3.50.

The Lerot and the Snake.

Every one has beard Of the remarka-
BILE comh.its OF the Indian mongoose
with venomous snakes, in which little
rikki-tikki-tavi comes of victor. The
fact that the mongoose invariably sur
wives has led to the suggestion that IL
is immune to snake poison. Other ami
mails said to be immune are the pig
and the hedgehog The experiments
of British naturalists show that an
animal Of the dornouse family must
be added to the list Of the immune,
This animal is known as the lerot and
is said to fight fercely with vipers.
Large doses Of viper's poison were In
jected into one lerot, from which In
lection no LII effects followed. On one
occasion a lerot was bitten badly In
the eye by a viper. and no signs Of
poisoning occurred. There can. 1t is
thought. be no doubt that the lerot Is
immune to snake poison.

Talking Canaries.

Talking canaries are great rarity,
but several authenticated instances are
or :. cord. At Norwood. England, In
1875 a lady had canary bird which
began by repeating n word which lts
mistress had often used to it-"hlssie'
kissie"-and by following the word VI
by an imitation of the sound of kiss.
After a time the bird repeated other
words until 1t lad large vocabulary
of phrases. one of which consisted OF
five words Again. in 1863. a talking
canary was exhibited in Bath. with
vocabulary sach as Is generally taught
TO parrots. and another talking canary
was exhibited for few weeks In this
country. but 1t unfortunately caught
cold and died. In Germany and the
Tyrol canaries are taught to initiate
the notes of other birds and whistle
simple tunes. and the words which II
initiates may be regarded rs a mere
development or variant Of its musical
notes

Gold Beaters' Skin.

A cheap substitute Is much desired
for goIdbeaters' skin. which Is prepar-
ed from the outside membrane Of the
large intestine Of the OK. 1t Is said
that goldbeaters first tried paper for
tnclosing the metal, and mulberry
fiber paper is still used in China and
Japan, but animal parchment has been
mostly employed for two or three cen
turtles at least. While a thinner leaf
can be beaten out between paper

adhesion. A special German paper Is

rlonterey,Va. Friday, Apr 5, 1917

When it is known that there is .
very strong sentiment in favor OF
good roads and road-im provement
throughout the county, it is more
or less disappointing that the sub
iect is not more freely and general
ly agitated and discussed by the
advocates of reform methods. There
isn't a shadow of doubt that s:or 0
of Highland taxpayers are thor
oaghly discouraged and tired OF
the wasteful and unsatisfactory sys
tenn of roads and woodworking now
il vogue in the county, and many
of them seem % lose sig hit of the
fact that all such far-reaching and
important reforms and improve
ments are brought about by an in
tellgent interchange of opinion
and that through such sane and
thoughtful discussions public opin-
ion and sentiment are moulded and
bic reforms are brought about.
knowing that the county paper is
the natural and most effective med
ium, we have on several occasions
urged our readers to make use OF
its columns in presenting their
views and suggestions, but only d
very few have taken advantage of
the offer. Unfortunately, there is
a disposition on the part OF too
many to waste time and space III
crit cising road contractors or coun-
ty officials. To our minds the point
of vital interest is how to get out
of the oll-ruts: in what way, quick
or gradual, can we best and most
a lvantageouslv abandon the back
number methods that the county
has so long followed, ond for which
her taxpayers have gotten no per
manent or lasting returns?
We assert, without any heslta
ton, that this silence or want o.
agitation is not due to a lack o
conviction along the line of argu
ment here produced, because, nj
matter where or by whom on'
hears the matter spoken of mel
from every section of the county
the sentiment is practically TIT
same: the people are vexed, dis
SATISFACTORY DRY Returns for the none,
spent on roads.
We believe that the first import
ant thing is to concede and in on
Judgment the concession is a jus
one that no county officials cal
go far toward bettering these con
ditions without adoptinga differen
system of applying funds and work
ing the roads. Such a concession
will lead to the question to b'
solved: What methods must W.
adopt? When and how? Almos
every other county in the state ha:
the same problem ia hand; surely
the intelligent men of Highland cal
solve it, too.
Again we tender space in the Re-
corder to any one who may be dis
posed to help out in the matter
either by discussion or suggestion.
Make your letters short as you can
and let them be free from personal
tiles. 1t is time for cooperation
rather than criticism.
