AZ The Lyric.

When the good ship Julia re.
turned from long voyage, her owner
called in an expert to examine the
old boat before sending it out on
another voyage. The expert, after
close inspection, decided that the
Julia" was not in the best of con-
dition, but ne felt that she wonld be
able to stand one more trip.
II happened that an old seaman
overheard the cOnyt rsation between
the expert and the ship owner, Mar
let, and he hurried away to tell his
young fri md, Paul, who was booked
TO sail again on the Julia. The
"Julia" was caught in a terrible
storm and literally torn TO pieces on
the rocks Of a barren island Paul
and few members of the crew were
able to reach the rocky shore, al
though almost exhausted in the
struggle.
But their safety was only TEN.
porary, because they found that their
refuge was nothing but a few desc
late rocks which stood alone in this
vast expense of stormswept water.
This subject has many very dramatic
situations, al Of which are handled
in a superb manner by company Of
artists who know how to make the
most of their opportunities. 1t il a
real feature-at The Lyric tonight.

DEPARTMENT or COMMERCE.
Issues Statement Automobile Exports,
Lnltrdar ". 1917


Automobile exports from theUnited
States are twenty times as much as a
decade ago. Reports of the value Of
automobiles and parts thereof sent
out of the United states in the eleven
months ended November, 1913, justi-
~ the statement that the total for
the full year just ended will approx
mate forty million dollars, against
less than two million dollars in 1908,
decade earlier.
The detailed figures for the eleven
months ended with November show
that 1853 passenger automobiles
and 921 commercial vehicles valued
at approximately twenty-five million
dollars were sent to foreign coun-
tries. and If to this is added the near
ly six million dollars worth of parts
of automobiles, three and one-half
million dollars worth of tires. and
one and one-half million dollars
worth Of automobile engines, the to-
tai for the eleven months is approx
mately thirty-six million dollars.
The shipments to Porto Rico.
Hawaii and Alaska, which are not in
cluded in the figures, approximate
two million dollars, making the
grand total for the eleven months
practically thirty-eight million dol
lars and fully justifying the estimate
of forty million dollars for the full
calendar year 1918 In 1903. de-
cade ago, this total was less than
two million dollars; in 1906, about
five million; in 1910, approximately
fifteen milliol; in 1911. twenty-four
million: in 1912 thirty-fve million
in 1918, approximately forty million
dollars.
Meantime the imports of automo-
bilts show a marked decline. The
total value of automobiles and parts
thereof imported in 1909 were nearly
four million dollars. and in 1918
about one and one-half million dol
lars.

eff crime could have been pre-
vented by subjecting the captured
offender to a severe and racking
penalty, then it would have been
stamped out long ago, because this
is exactly the method which states
have used in the past. In England
there were at one time, l believe,
over two hundred crimes for which
the penalty was hanging. Long
terms of Imprisonment, transporta-
ton and fogging at the cart s tail
were penalties for the smallest Of
crimes. Surely the evil exacted by
the state was sufficient to outweigh
the uncertainty and distance; yet
crimes fourished and grew apace
while the hangings went merrily on
Does anyone really believe that the
state Of Delaware could bring
about d decrease in chicken-steal-
ing, horse-stealing and dog-steal-
ing by doubling or trebling the
number of lashes meted out to the
offender?

 INFANTRY CORPORAL
loung Soldier Receives Praise From High Source Together With
 Military Medal.

Paris, Dec. 7.-General Joffre has made the following announcement:
 "The military medal has been con- lerred on Andrew Bourgon, soldier of the second class, 66th Infantry regi- ment, for his energy, courage and presence of mind"
 Col poral Bourgoin is only nineteen years of age. His heroic deed was one of the incidents of the battle of the Name.
 The corporal and what was left of ms company fell in with another French detachment in the wood Three thousand Germans surrounded them, but luckily they did not know the number of the Frenchmen.
 The Frenchmen made brave stand, protecting themselves in square trenches, and in the middle trey placed the colors.
 About 1 o'clock, the French artil- lery came up, and the devoted band ln the wood were between two fires. The position became untenable. and one by one the men abandoned the trenches.
 But the corporal, remembering that he had been entrusted with the flag. did not think it was safe to go. and it was 3:30 in the afternoon when he left the wood, carrying the colors, which he had wrapped round the staff.
 On his way back, he saw a dying German officer and bandaged up his wounds.
 As the officer saw the look of pity on the youngsters face, he drew his head toward him and kissed him. With tears rolling down his cheeks, the dying man told the boy that he had left eight children behind him In Berlin. His last words to the boy were: "God save Xour life,

HIGH SCHOOL NEWS.
BY MARY SORRELLS.

The students of the High school were delighted with the exercises at the school Monday morning, when Rev. Cox, of the First Baptist church, Rev. Steele, of First Methodist church and Rev. Waldrip, of the Lakeside church were visitors. After an ad- dress of introduction by Prof. J. R. Allen, Rev. Waldrip led in prayer.
 The High school chorus rendered the beautiful musical selection sweet Adeline," which was loudly applaud ed and the entire school responded with the "star Spangled Banner"
 Then Rev. Cox made an interesting talk on Do Not Be Tolerable Man or Woman, But Reach the Highest Point" All the teachers and stu dents of the school enjoyed and ap- preciated this good advice, and are looking forward to the second visit of all three ministers.
 In few days the boys and girls, who have been attending various col leges will return to spend at home the Christmas holidays. The boys will be expected to have acquired much learning and a small mustache, and peculiar fitting clothes, and also they will no doubt be able to explain so much of their expense accounts, as appeared little high. The following are expected home:
