A Genuine Treat

The people of Shepherdstown had
a genuine treat the past week.
when DR.. Byron w. King, the IA
nous head of Kings School of Ex-
preston in Pittsburg, spent a cou-
pie of days with us. We think a
more acceptable entertainer has
never been in town. He Is much
more than an entertainer, however,
he is a philosopher and optimist, AN
apostle who must do good as he
goes about with his wit and humor
and sound doctrine, touching the
hearts of the people and inspiring
them to better thoughts and worth
Ter deeds. He makes people hap
pier and .better-and that's all that
any one need wish to do. DR.. King
gave Bible reading in the college
auditorium Sunday night, addressed
the Shepherd College students on
Monday morning, and closed with
an inimitable lecture Monday night.
Everyone liked him-indeed, many
say that he Is the best in his line
they have ever heard-and we hope
he will come again to Shepherds
.-Shepherdstown (W.Va. )Reg-

ening, Feb. IL, at Zion Church.

Antiquity sf the Saw.

The saw Is the earliest tool that has been traced ID Egyptian history. It was found first in the farm of notch ed bronze knife In the third dynasty. or about 6.ND vears before the Chris tian era. and was followed In the fourth and fifth dyndsties by larger toothed saws, which were used hy carpenters, but there are no dated specimens until the seventh century before the Chris- tian era, when the Assyrians used iron saws. The first kniyes CD record were made out of nint and were in fact saws with minute teeth. They prob ably were nsed for cutting up animals, as the teeth would break away even on soft wood. Rasps, which are but 6 form of saw. were first made of sheets of bronze punched and coiled round. but the Assvrians iu the seventh ceu- tury usc0 the straight rasp made Of iron similar to the modern type In the present day the SAW Is probably used more than any other tool It has taken three distinct forms fer the working Of both wood and metal--the straight saw. the band saw and the circular saw.

LANE DOES NOT FEAR
GOVERNORS ACTION
Says He Believes That City
Prisoners Will Remain
Shackled

s. That he was not inclined to be fear
full lest the governor should attempt to
take the shackles off the legs of city
prisoners was a statement made yester-
day by City Commissioner A. o. Lane,
in charge of the police department. Judge
Lane stated that he believed the COVER
nor saw the reasonableness of his re-
quest that the city convicts remain
shackled.
Both Governor O'Neal and Judge Lane
made efforts to see each other during
the governors visit to Birmingham last
week, the judge said yesterday, but that
they had just happened to always miss
each other and hence mo- conference had
been held. Mr. Lane stated he under
stood that the shaclzles were to be re-
moved from the county convicts, which
he admitted might be practicable although
he had his serious doubts.
The difference in the conditions and
circumstances surrounding the city con-
vict and the county convict, Judge Lane
says, makes reasonable grounds for the
discrimination. While 1t might be possi-
BILE to satisfactorily work county convicts
on the roads out in the country without
shackles, the commissioner believes that
it would be so much easier for a convict
to escape in the city that the scheme
would not work at all.
