Secretary Makes the Trip Over
the Famous Big Stony Ridge
to Make an Address.

In the campaign for the annual
meeting of the County Sunday School
Association | made the wind up at
Crockett's Cove Methodist church last
Sunday, and as usual, had good,
hard trip-good time while there
hard time going and coming.
Mr. j. w. Neal is Superintendent
and j. M. Mcfarland, assistant. and
L. ii. Crockett, secretary of the Meth
odist Sunday School and Mr.. J. ].
Riley, Superintendent and Jack Shra-
der, assistant. These schools are in
fourishing condition. Rev, Ed.
Smith, is pastor of the Methodist
church, and the schools in all his
churches are wide awake.
made few Occasional remarks"
about the county work and few
other things, took collection, ate n
line dinner, and turned my face tow
ards home at 4 p. M, reaching here
as the people were assembling for ey-
ening worship.
Big Stony. {
| climbed Big Stony Ridge. "Na-
poleon and me-" in my buggy, early in
the morning before brother Charles
Reynolds had stirred aDout, and Tom
Brown had finished shaving. On top
of the ridge lives, moves and has his
being, ID. Presley Peery, with his
wife and whole yard full of pretty
children and II field full of black cows
anu calves. ran against Pres. us he
was starting to-not exactly Sunday
School, but to another part of his
farm, and he kindly conducted me
around to the new road going over
Big Stony, and down | went. This
new road, recently graded, makes in
gresS and egrcss easier than il used
to be. This new road, when com
pleted,, rs proposed To the West Vir-
ginia line to Shradcr, will unite nj
Bearwallow with the new road there.
and then on into North Tazcwcll. The
trouble to be remcdicd in this road
is its narrow width, which will be
fixed later. Dry? Well, Crocketts
Cove was an out-and-out prohibition
country on this occasion. Every creek
and branch was dry until you reach
the store. The pastures were dry
everything dry and the sun hot. Loop
ing the loop up Big Stony Sunday nf-
ternoon was tiresome. Set two fig
urc 8s on top of each other, open
both ends, and you have an idea of
this road, but it is good grade and
a great improvement.
On my return ! stopped mt Pros's.
and asked for water for my horse and
myself. Napoleon got his and | got
mine. That is to say, asked Mrs.
Peery to substitute buttermilk for
the water, which she kindly did, fresh
and cool, right from the spring house.
Refreshed by this beverage and
rest on the shady side of the lawn, |
again moved out.
In the Cove l had my dinner with
Joe Riley, and finer little dinner no
sinner ever enjoyed. Mrs. Riley is n
daughter of Dave Dudley, who moved
to Tennessee, and is fine housekcep-
er. B. +. Riley & Son, father and
son, 90 is the "Co."), run large

cations, and all the good folks there

lin, where Chinda served as ambassador
In 1912 he came to Washington in the
same capacity.
Within these years Amba ssador Chinda
had, in recognition of his services to
Japan, been raised to the .peerage by the
emperor. Both he and his wife We're
born members of the samurai class of
Japan. The emperor raised him to the
rank of baron, and later created him
viScount.
Nine. Chinda has been the mother of
six chi dren. of whom four are living
Looking into her youthful. unlined face
it is with something like amaZement that
one learns she is also a grandmother.
The elder of the grandchildren, Haruko
Yamanaka. is eleven. The younger,
Kinuko meaning Little Silk, is six, and
was born in Paris when her father was
attac hed to the Japanese embassy there.
The embassy over which Nine. Chinda
preSideS is conducted as is any well reg
ulated American house. 1t Is American
in all its details. except that the servants
are japanese. The cuisine, which is
also entirely American, is occasionally
varied with favorite native dish OF the
viscount or his wife.
Nine. Chinda first adopted occidental
dress when her husband was appointed
consul to San Francisco. The wife of a
missionary to Japan showed her how to
replace the gayly embroidered kimono and
obi with the stays, shirt waist and skirt,
stockings and pumps worn by women of
western countries. At first. Nine Chinda
confesses it was all horribly uncomfort-
able Now she would be most uncom-
Portable in native costume-that is, in any
land except Japan. The topic of the
latest fashions possesses for her the
same absorbing interest that it holds for
the average American woman, and she
is equally at ease in a Paris creation
or in the latest CRY from some fashion,
able American shop.

A caller at the Japanese embassy is
ushered by the most correct of buffers
into a big drawing room, which, to the
smallest detail, is furnished with the
conventional elegance of the average
American home Then a diminutive wom-
an, gowned as any American woman of
wealth and fashion is gowned, enters and
with cordially of manner that becomes
her well gives the conventional greet
ing:
How do You do; am glad TO see
YOU
The little woman is ViScountess Chinda,
wife of the Japanese ambassador to the
United States, and one of the most pro-
gressive wide-awake women of the en-
tire diplomatic corps. She has adopted
the clothing. the speech and many of
tae social customs of American women
with that ease and efficiency with which
the Japanese as a people have assimilated
much that is best in occidental civiliza-
ton. She acquired English a good many
years ago, when, from 1889 to 1893, her
husband was consul at San Francisco
Since that time, however, Niscountess
Chinda has seen many lands and many

Francisco the Chindas went to Shanghai,

Young Henry shook himself, free. his
terror replaced by sudden, resentful
anger. Fifty yards away the sentry
nodded. his back against a tree and his
gun across his lap. Drummer saw the

and noiseess; before the outlaw could
wake or move, his gun was In Henry S

The sentry was quick witted. He
couldn't shoot, but he could yell. Brun-
ner, however, was ready for that. lie
began to bawl a jewelers. song, popu-
lar with cowboys on = spree, and OLD
man Thomas Joined him. From above, it
sounded as if a drunken riot had broken
out in which the outpost's warning
shout became only a meaningless dis
cord. The babel brought the four sleep
ing men out of their blankets. They
listened a moment. then stepped out in
view Of the posse in the briars.
AS Drummer came up, old man Thomas
turned to face him. On his scanned face
the sweat had almost dried, but when he
showed his hat up with his forearm his
sleeve came away from his forehead
damp. The compelling glitter in the gray
eyes turned to a challenging star. Brun-
ner met it, then glanced up the trail to-
