RESCUE WOMEN FIRST,
SAID AUTO VICTIM
AND THEN He DIED

DALLAS, Tex, June 22.-The death
of Alex Mckay, department store
clerk, in the automobile accident that
cost six lives here, it developed today
was heroic. Mckay was one of a
party of twenty-five, most of whom
we're pinned beneath an automobile
truck weighing several tons, which
overturned into a shallow ditch while
returning to the city late at night from
an orphans home entertainment. A
stanchion of the truck pierced Nc
Kay's left side, severing an artery
and pinning him to the ground so
firmly that rescuers ultimately had to
saw the steel rod to free him. He re-
tanned consciousness and during the
long wait for tackle to arrive to lift
the great truck off the dead and in
jured men and women and children
piled upon and around him, McKay
talked calmly to his fellow suverers
trying to quiet women who were no'
badly injured, but were hysterical.
When rescuers arrived Mckay in.

He died a few minutes after he haG
been freed. Four of the dead werJ
drowned in IS inches of water by tht
weight of bodies above them. Three

HANDLING PICK AND SHOVEL

Frank Pittman, who usually prefxes
the title Doctor" to his name, was
sentenced to twenty days at hard la
for this morning by Mayor Council,
presiding over police court Doctor"
Pittman was arrested on a charge of
cheating and swindling. His favorite
pastime was telling fortunes at 25

Policemen summerford and Worthy
made the arrest. They out-tricke1
the negro by removing their coats and
turning down the brims of their hats.
The negro thought they were civilians
and readily agreed to tell their for

journey and wealth" in Policeman
Summerford's hand, Worthy slipped
the handouts over his wrists and the
fortune telling was forgotten. A pistol

FARMERS TURNING
HOMES INTO HOTELS
TO SERVE AUTOISTs
ROADSIDE GARAGES BEING BUILT
IN PREPARATION FOR WAVE OF
MOTOR TRAVEL

TOPEKA, Kan; June 22-Hundreds
of Kansas farmhouses are being turn
ed into impromptu hostelries and
scores of Jeyhawker farmers with
mechanical turn of mind are estab-
fishing roadside garages in prepara-
ton for the wave of Pacific coast mo-
tor travel, which already is sweeping
through the state.
Six we'll travelled trails cross the
Sunfower State from east to west,
offering splendid routes for trans
continental travel. 1t is along these
roads, the new Santa Fe trail, Old
Santa Fe trail, Rock Island highway,
Golden Belt road, Red Line route and
White Way, that residents are pre-
pairing for the accommodation of the
tourists who are answering the call
of "See America Now"
Through Kansas and Nebraska, by
reason of their geographical location
will pass practically all of the West
ward-Ho travellers. The Lincoln high
way through Nebraska will draw
heavily, as will the National Old Trails
route, which fran Kansas City west
to New Mexico, follows the historic
Santa Fe trail. The Santa Fe trail
follows two routes in Kansas, the new
and old These pass through the
south central part of Kansas. Almost
directly along the north tier of coun-
ties from st. Joseph toward Denver
is the Rick Island highway, which is
division of the Pixies Peake ocean
to-ocean highway. The three remain
ing cross-state roads leave Kansas
City, and follow practically the same
routes in the central portion of the
state as far west as Manhattan. Here
the Red Line branches slightly to the
north, the White Way takes a central
course, and the Golden Belt passes
through a number of the larger Kan
sas cities to the south. Near the Colo
RADIO line the three roads and the
Rock Island highway merge.

WHY WORRY?

The laden sky's still leakin' an
The rain comes driftin' down.
The early kale has Strengthened up
An the corn breaks thro the groun'.
We were needin' water mighty bad,
The sun had been so hot
The grass was almost withered
In the old horse pasture lot.
Things work out for the best, It seems,
II does no good to worry
For nature takes her course, like
dreams
And never seems to hurry.
She does not hear the farmers fret
About the crops he's raisin'
Or see his face begrimmed with sweat,
But keeps the sun a-blazin'.
Until he thinks his toll is lost
And cares not what may happen,
Then he a-wakes some quiet night
And hears the rain a drappin'.
Along the caves II patters down,
musical tattoo.
He listens and his heart grows light
knowing his hopes are true.
ihio eiihc " ytuI line tO See
The rain come driftin' down
For bout day, an then the sun
Come out an warm the groun'.
like to see the vapor blow
And dancing sunbeams quiver
An see the wheat wave like the reeds
Along some wlnd-swept river.
II were but the weather man
I'd surely make men glad
Or just his son "a little while.
That wouldn't be so bad.
! think I'd know just how to fix
The waste gate on the dam
For gentle showers on crops an
flowers
In the land OF Uncle Sam.
