JUST A STATEMENT

The rumor circulated around the town, that P. Wolland has sold out, is not true. He is still in business, and is very much alive. The asao- citation of Mir. D. c. Dahlin with tho business of F. Wolland was perfected in order to facilitate matters, as tho business has been growing very pleas- antly for some time, and to give those who do not like the personality of the "Old-Man" a chance to have their clothes made In their home town, by patronizlng Mir. Dahlin.
 Mr. Dahlin in associatlng himself with me because he believes in Home Industry" and is giving his patrons a "Fair Deal" Mfr. Dahlin is @ first class cutter and a thorough mechan- ic. well worthy of the attention of the best citizen of the community.
 Yours Truly,
 F. WOLLAND.

HOW A JOURNALIST
 TELLS FAMILIAR STORY

Ed Wagner (probably no relation to che great composer whom knowing ones call vogner) is in trouble. Ed. has been yust a plain Scandinavian faller who. so far as known, has never attempted to trade on or make capi- tal of his somewhat distinguished namo. Ed. is serving Q six months sentence In jan for supplying "oil Of iay" to Jennie Mckenzie.
 Jennie Mckenzie is, not os her name would indicate, a bonnie Scotch Iassie. There is naught in Jennie'a contour (whatever that means) to suggest any of those quaint Scotch ballads such as "Comin' ITO the Rye" and "You Take the High Road Jen nie is a native daughter, to the man. ner born.

MRS. GALT IS
 DESCENDANT
 or POCOHANTAS

Announcement that the great-great- granddaughter of the great great grandchild of Pocohoatas is to be mar rlcd to President Wilson has turned attention once again back to the first popular heroine in America. As it has already been stated, Mrs. Edith Gait is a descendant in the ninth gen. eration of Pocahontas. the favorite daughter of the Indian chieftain Pow hatan.
 It has not been generally realized that in the South, and in Virginia es- pecially. there are today numerous descendants of the Indian maiden whose father three centuries ago was regarded In England as American em- peror although as matter of fact. the nation he ruled consisted of prob ably fewer than 5000 persons.
 The story of Pocahontas IS one Of the familiar legends. but by a cur ious error many persons have the mo- ton that tho Indian princess after saving the life of Capt John Smith married him Students Of American history need not be informed chat Pocahontas did not marry the adven- turer but become the wife of wid- over. Thomas or John Rolfe. After the story or Smiths romantic rescue from death had been told and retold and printed for two and Q half cen- turtles there bobbed up in certain quar- ters writers and investigators who tried to cast the whole tale into the cauldron of doubt But the best his torical judgment today regards the story as being strictly accurate in all its essential points
 Smiths account which will be read in his General History of Virginia" " is very matter of fact
 Smith Tells of Escape
 "A long consultation was held" he wrote. "the conclusion of which was two great. great stones were brought before Powhatan. as many aa could laid hands on him, dragged him to the stones. and thereupon laid his head and being ready with their clubs to beat him to death, Pocahontas, the kings dearest daughter. when no en- treaty could prevail got his head in her arms, and laid her own upon his to save him from death; whereat the emperor was content he should live to make him hatchets and her shells, beads and copper; for they thought him as well learned of all occupants as themselves"
 What became of Rolfe after Poca- hontass death in 1917 is not clear, but his son. Thomas. after he receiv- ed his education. returned to Virgin ia. where the family since has been prominent and his marriage into oth- CT old families of the same colony among them the Randolphs. Thomas Rolfe was born in 1915, but the date of his marriage to Jane Poythress and the year of his death are unknown. They had one child, a daughter. Jane, who died in 1876.
 Jane married Col. Robert Boiling. and to them was born @ son, born in 1876.

A second amendment extends the
application of the act 1t states that

the act shall include not only all di-
rect work on munitions. but all sub
sidiary work, such as building and
repair work on munitions factories,
the supply Of light and power for the
manufacture Of munitions. and the
manufacture Of machinery and raw
material for munitions. Thus praC-
tiCally all war work for the govern
ment and all the working people en-
plOyed in 1t come under government
control, which means the employees
lose the right 10 strike, and even the
right TO leave a job voluntarily
The labor party has asked for still
another change. All Offenses against
the act are tried before tribunal at

pointed by the minister of munitions

LONDON, Dec. 1S.-A bill to

drafted to meet complaints that pro-
visions OF the original act are unjust.
Serious labor troubles are threatened
unless reforms are brought about, the
sense of grievance among munition
workers in Scotland, particularly,
having become almost as bitter as 1t
can be without revolt.
Under the original act 1t is neces-
sary for men who leave the govern

tificates from their employers before
they can obtain work elsewhere.
Many employers have refused TO grant
such certificates TO men they have
dismissed A proposed amendment

In certain sections of the United
States the Indians have a habit OF
catching rattlesnakes and other yipers
by stealing up softly upon the sleeping
victim while he is summing himself in
he sand, and pinning him down to the
round with forked stick While the
struggling snake is held at the neck
with the CrOtched stick, the man cuts
off the head or rattles and then skins
him.
This custom has suggested a very
apt illusion to the anti-tuberculosis
campaign. tuberculosis, the Great
White Plague, is a snake of huge pro-
portions, poisoning hundreds of thou
sands Of victims every year and wind
ing his Shiny way into almost every
avenue of life and into nearly every

may be designated as a great crotched
stick. or better still, a number Of
