SCRAP IN VALLEY
Joe Daugherty and John McGimpsey
Heavily Fined in Police Court for
Their Performances.

Joe Daugherty of Coal Valley paid
$41.25 in Moline police court this
morning and John McGimpsey, also of
Coal Valley, paid $1705, all because
some potatoes were not cooked to
please the taste of Daugherty.
TIE costly dish of potatoes is said to
have been cooked by McGimpsey's
daughter, at whose home Daugherty,
an employee of the telephone company,
is a boarder. Daugherty expressed his
dissatisfaction with the potatoes, but
to whom he made his comments is a
mooted question. Anyhow, he didn't
like 'em and he said so.
This rolled McGimpsey and accord
ing to Daugherty, McGimpsey knocked
him down. Daugherty then retired to
his room. Later he returned down.
stairs. On his way out, McGimpsey
says, Daugherty hurled a pop bottle
at him. Daugherty says he didn't AT
any rate, there was fight and when it
was over Daugherty was wearing a dis
colored eye and sundry bruises about
the fact and McGimpsey had a cash in
his left arm, inflicted by the blade of
a pocket knife in Daugherty's hand.
Daugherty's wife was in Moline and
he came here. On request of Coal Val
ley authorities he was arrested here on
a charge of assault with a deadly
weapon. He Immediately swore out a
warrant for McGimpsey, charging him
with assault and battery.
After hearing evidence today Magis-
trate Frank Gustafson assessed Nc
Gimpsey $17.05 and Daugherty $4125.
Unfortunately the potatoes were not
submitted as evidence.

So with plenty to eat he grew strong
er than ever and more handsome and
was joy to all who saw him in the
Green Forest. So the cool days of au-
tumn came and Jack Frost painted the
leaves OF the Green Forest in beautiful
colors, and with great. soft eyes Light
foot drank in the beauty of it and was
happy. He was at peace with all the
Great World and all the Great World
was at peace with him. Then one day
as he lay doing and dreaming in a
thicket near the edge of the Green
Forest a distant bang brought him to
his feet with a bound and in his beau
tiful eyes was sudden fright. At that
instant the Spirit of Fear found him.
just as it did Peter Rabbit in the dear
Old Brier Patch, and cold chill ran
over him, just as it had run over Peter
and Mrs. Peter. Hunters were abroad
with terrible guns.
From that moment Lightfoot the
Deer no longer knew the meaning of
peace of mind. He knew that from
daylight to dark there was no real
safety for him. Only when the Black
Shadows ,crept out from the Purple
| down from high up in the sky could
he feel safe for even minute. Even
then he knew no peace, for he was
all the time thinking of and dreading
| the next day. He sought his most Sc
cret hiding places. but in his heart he
knew that. sooner or later the hunters
would find them, and so he dared not
stay long. III any one. lie SnatcheQ

when his turn would come, for he knew

York buyers, and the gambling chance
which they took on it has won out over

partly narrow skirt with fine tucks at

jacket which would be an Eton if it
had escaped the waist line. Its sur
face is entirely covered with scrolls of
soutache and it's immense collar and
cuffs are of white fur. At neck and
waist line, this jacket blouse is joined
together with ribbons of black velvet.

Lightfoot Loses His Peace of
Mind.

! All the long summer Lightfoot the
| Deer had lived in peace and happiness,
going and coming where and when he
pleased. fearing no one and feared by
| no one. For a while, to be sure, he
had chosen to keep out of sight as
much as possible. That was after Ibis
old horns had dropped off and while
his new ones were growing. You see,
Lightfoot is very proud of his horns,
very proud indeed. They are very like
crown, and he wears them like a
! crown. He holds his head high, for
he knows full well how becoming those
branching horns are. Perhaps he takes
too much pride in them. Perhaps that
| is the reason that in the spring /of
every year Old Mother Nature takes
them away from him. You know, it
doesn't do for any one to take too much
pride in anything.
come Lightfoot had lost his horns.
While it wasn't exactly a disgrace,
somehow Lightfoot couldn't bear to be
seen without them, and SO he had stolen
away to a part of tho Green Forest
where others seldom came and there
he had remained while the new horns
were growing, AS soon as these had
reached their full growth and had
hardened. for at first they were very
soft, as you know, he had come forth
from his hiding place and once more
roamed at will through the Green For
est and even over the Green Meadows
that all the little meadow and forest
people might see his new horns and
how handsome he was.
And he was handsome. Even Sammy
Jay admitted that. And he was on the
best of terms with all his neighbors.
He harmed none of them. Not few
of them envied him his great size and
strength and beauty. SO he went where
he would and feared no one. He min
gled with the cows in the Old Pasture.
He even joined Peter Rabbit in Far
mer Browns garden on moonlight
nights, where neither of them had any
business to be. though \ they didn't
know it.

Demand for Agricultural Machinery.

After covering number of other
factors now prominent in general trade
| conditions DIR. Pratt discussed foreign
trade problems in one of the lines of
greatest interest to the delegates
agricultural implements.
1T seems to me-" said the speaker.
that there is no question but that
there will be a very large demand for
agricultural machinery OF all kinds i'm
mediately following the close of the
war Europe-and for that matter all
Of the countries of the world-are to-
day almost entirely stripped of their
stocks of agricultural implements and
machinery. The factories in the bel
i:gerent countries which have hereto
fore been producing agricultural ma
chinery have been recently producing
only comparatively small proportion
of their former output, and some Of them
have almost entirely ceased to pro-
duce agricultural implements. In some
of the belligerent countries not only
have the stocks of machines been ex-
haustedA but agriculturists have been
forced to resort to machinery of obso-
lete pattern and designs, and in some
cases have even gone SO far as to piece
together odd parts which happened to
be in the warehouse,
There is another point which we
should take into consideration, and
that is that the loss of men. the loss of
labor power in Europe. has been great
and irrepara BILE"
In closing, DIR. Pratt expressed the
opinion that although our present ex-
ports of farm-operating machinery are
far below normal, great opportunity
exists"

add no warmth or bulkiness. The
trousers are nearly ankle length and
are finished with a cuff matching the
sleeves.
Silk pajamas are numbered among
the holiday pieces now offered in many
of the shops. and packed in a dainty
box a garment similar to the one
sketched would make a very attractive
and welcome gift for a college girl.
IN the development of dainty night
gowns Georgette crepe is being ex-
tensively used. Ribbon is the most
popular trimming for all types of un-
derwear. In making up nightgowns of
Georgette, rainbow or two-tone effects
are got by yelling one color with an
other. An added advantage to this ar
rangement is that less fragile gar
ment results, the two folds strength
ening and reinforcing each other.
Tailored rather than frilly effects
are sought in the development Of silk
pajamas for women. Stitching is fre-
quently the only trimming used. and
where ribbon is employed it is set on
as a binding rather than in bows and
loosely flowing ends.

ardization of street traffic regulations

in strong terms by W. P. Emo of Wash

Mr.. Emo told the congress he was the
author of the first set of printed regu-
lations ever used anywhere in the
world and that he had devoted sixteen
years to studying traffic problems and
traffic Legislation and regulation.
He said that no new traffic reguIa-
tions should be promulgated anywhere,
but that all communities should adopt
a municipal ordinance requiring the
police department to enforce the stand
ard police street traffic regulations
Nearly all street traffic regulations, he
said. are based on the New York regu-
lations. which he recommend to be used

Mounted Police Essential.

Speaking of traffic policemen and
traffic duties, Mr.. Emo said:
"A well trained body of mounted
police is essential to every large city
for the management of parades, escort
duty, suppression Of riots, ETC. A
mounted traffic squad furnishes this
service economically, because daily
traffic duty gives regular employment
between times.
The management of traffic by the
police adds but very little to the cost
of police work. because the men COM
posing the traffic squad are not with
drawn from regular police duty, but
are SO placed by their special assign
ments as to have an effective super
vision Of their locality and to be readily
found in case of emergency. Theif
duty consists in fixed post duty by
men on foot and limited patrol duty
by men on horses and cycles.
uniformity of police signals at
crossings is much to be desired and
has been taught lately at New York
police headquarters with good results
I'm London and Paris the police de-
partment has branch known as the
public carriage office. some of the
duties of which are to examine and
license drivers of public vehicles, such
as cabs, trucks, sightseeing cars, etc,
and to make and enforce regulations
in regard to the fitness and mainte-
nance of such vehicles including ex-
animation of taximeters, etc.
