Special 10 "A. N<,y,.


Mr.. Editor and readers, this
beautiful New Years morning
finds me looking around for a
few dots for the News. gay.
! Sinceeour last letter, we have
had a few days pretty cold, some
sleet, rain, and snow. Our
weather director dropped to
22 above 0, but did not remain
there long. Today we have reg
ular May day.
A few weeks ago | mentioned
a fight our police had with some
hold up men. The hold up men
were convicted by the Criminal
Court, and given a sentence of
ninety-nine years. In addition to
this, they had some other charges
against them, and were convicted
on some of them to sentences of
ten and fifteen years. 1 guess
they will be good when their full
time is out. Dallas has had a
great number of burglary and
hold up cases lately. Our
worthy Chief of Police gave
order to get them dead or alive.
They have brought in two dead
and several alive. For the next
few weeks, it is hoped that we
will get some results from that
order.
Twas glad to see several good
letters in the last paper, one
from Oklahoma. | don't re-
member the name or place, but
hope he will write again and Of

this winter, but that is expected
here when we have such warm

The collapse of a new building just
being completed on Vine street, near
22nd, gives an insight into the poor
construction of many buildings intend
ed for Negro occupancy, and demon
strates conclusively that there must
be something faulty with the building
inspection of this city. Had the build
ing been occupied doubtless every oc-
cupant would have been killed, as it
was a total wreck.

1t is regrettable that the names of
a number of our prominent Colored

automobile tires by young MCGEE last

time things with a doubtful origin.
And the kind of newspaper notoriety
that results doesn't do our leading
men any good. Don't buy stolen
goods.

ARRESTS FOR INToXIcATIoN.

Does not this testimony prove that it is preferable for men to be
permitted to take a drink from a glass rather than from a jug; to buy
it from a licensed dealer than to procure it from a bootlegger or blind
pig. Is it not better that pure liquors be supplied the public under
decent regulation, with revenue to the people, than that such decoe-
tons IS r. sold in Prohibition territory be dispensed, through the
non-taxpaying, illicit traffic that has made all Prohibition territory
notorious?

Mrs. Thomas Hotson.
,From the Milwaukee sentinel,


In the city of Norfolk, England, in
the year 1929, two children, boy and
girl, were born in houses on the
same street and but three houses
apart. The girl, Esther Gnttridge,
was born in April and the boy, Thomas
Hotson, was born in December. They
grew up as children became lovers
and were married in October, 1849,
when each was 20 years of age. For
81 years they lived happily together
and death claimed them both almost
within a month of each other, he dy-
ing on January 9th and she passed
away this morning in their old home
in Lyle township where they had liy-
ed for over half century.
1t was in October, 1854, that Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Hotson came to Amer.
lea; with them was their son Aiken,
now secretary of the Mower County
farmers Mutual Insurance Company,
and a little daughter year and five
months old. 1t was long journey in
sailing ship in those days and when
the little girl died, far out at sea, the
body had to be consigned to the deep
Landing at Louisiana the family re-
NAMED there but a short time and
then went to st. Louis where Mr.. Hot
son worked in a roller mill. They
then went to Illinois where he man
aged brick yard and came to Lyle
township in 1852. Here in pre-
emption shanty they made their home
until the new house was built. Mr..
Hotson was striken with chill on
New Years day and died ON the fifth
of January. Mrs. Hotson was taken
with the grip and for nine weeks was
confined to her bed. She was con-
soious up to within few minutes OF
her death and was surrounded by all
her children except Thomas, who re-
sides in North Dakota.
Five children are living, Atkin and

The funeral will be held Wednesday

tongue with the little elevation. The
eruption comes out usually on the
chest in from three to fourteen hours
after the first symptoms, rarely long
er, and is sometime entirely absent.
Peeling begins in from four or FIVE
days and lasts usually from four to
five weeks. For the patient this is one
Of the most dangerous periods. The
new skin is likely to be very sensitive
to changes of temperature, and it is
at this time that the development of
kidney and other troubles is likely to
occur.
The disease is contagious from the
first symptoms to the last of the peel
ing. Those cases in which there are
any discharges from the ears and nos
trils are particularly dangerous. In
hospitals for contagious diseases, chif-
dren are never allowed to leave as
long as any discharge can be found
The average, time of confinement IN
such hospitals is fifty days, conse-
quently parents of children who have
contracted scarlet fever should not be
in hurry to put their children out.
The disease is spread most frequent
/ ~ directly from patient to patient,
consequently isolation is chief factor
in preventing its spread. Medical in
spection of schools has notable effects
in preventing the spread of scarlet
fever. The germ of the disease can
also be carried by clothing or any
article which has come in direct con-
tactwith the discharge Of the patient,
conse quently all such articles should
be thoroughly boiled or disinfected
before using again.
| Above all things, scarlet fever
should not be trified with, according
to DIR. M. P. Ravenel of the depart
ment of Preventive Medicine of the
University of Missouri at Columbia.
A competent physician should be call
ed at once and put in complete
charge of the case.

that what they are asking for is
"basic" eight-hour day, which would
permit an employe to work any num-
ber of hours, provided he is paid a
rate of time and one-half after the ex-
piration of eight hours of continuous
service.
The difference between an eight
hour workday and an eight-hour
"basic" workday is explained by an
international officer of the Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen in the
January issue of it's official journal,
Speaking of the "basic'' eight-hour
day he says it "contemplates that
eight hours shall be the basis for a
days work and any time in excess
thereof shall be paid for as overtime,
consequently under such a provision
there is no limit to the hours work
ed"
This appears to be a distinction
without difference. Only one inter-
probation can be placed upon the
statement. The payment of overtime
rates is the primary object sought;
the reduction in hours being second
ary. 1t is an indirect method of seek
ing wage increase, rather than
direct method of seeking reduction
in hours.
Under ordinary circumstances pen
atty rate on overtime has the effect
of eliminating it or reducing it to a
minimum. That is the reason why
labor unions generally place premi-
um on overtime. 1t is doubtful ifsuch
a plan applied to railroad operation
will mini mize overtime; certainly it
will not eliminate it.-Ex.
