THE DEVILS ADVOCATE

An old Scotch woman was famous
for speaking kindly. No sheep was
so dark but she could discover some
white spot to point out to those who
could see only blackness. One day a
gossiping neighbor lost patience with
her and said angrily:
"Wumman, ye'll hae a guild word
to say for the deevil himself!"
Instantly came the reply:

TRYING TO LOCATE HEIRS

The endeavor of the European ma
tions to locate the relatives of men
who have fallen in battle while serv-
ing the various foreign legions bears
an interesting comparison to similar
efforts now being undertaken in this
country to trace the relatives or heirs
of men in the American service who
have died, some of whom have left
valuable property.
The United States Marine Corps
recently issued bulletin, containing
the names Of Sergeant Albert Jolly of
Melbourne, Australia, Corporal Thos.
Brophy of Dublin, Ireland and Pri-
vate Owen Woods Former address
unknown,) in a further effort to To-
cate their heirs or next of kin. These
men, who have been dead over ten
years, left effects of considerable
value, and numerous inquiries during
that period have failed to locate their
rightful heirs

OHIO CORN CONTESTS 1917

The Board of Agriculture of Ohio
has planned for the boys and men to
work together in the 1917 Corn Grow
ing Contests.
The inspirations and lessons of the
Junior Corn Contests prompted the
Board to put on a Senior Corn Grow
ing Contest for 1917
These contests are the worst enc
mics of poverty-they have no fellow
ship with any vice-they are friends
to every virtue.
1917 Junior Corn Contest
A Junior Corn Contestant must
raise one acre. He has four methods
by which he may win, as follows:
1. If he assists in doing all the
work up to and including the plant
ing and then does all the cutlivating
on an acre, he may win a trip to
Washington.
2. If a Junior does all of the work
on the single acre of corn, he may
win trip to Washington.
g. If Junior farms five or more
acres of corn in one plot, he may Sc
lect any acre of it upon which to win
a trip to Washington
a. If Junior works with Senior
Corn Contestant on the Senior Con-
testant's ten-acre plot, the Junior may
then select any acre in the plot.
A Trip to Washington on the 1917
trip is the reward in the Junior Corn
CROWN Contests.
1917 Senior Corn Contests
A Senior Corn Contest will be put
up in every county, open to men over
twenty years of age. The Senior
Contest must be carried on upon a
ten-acre plot. A boy may have his
own acre in his fathers ten-acre plot
by assisting in all of the work The
prizes in the Senior Corn Contest are
as follows:
1. A grand prize of 800 will be
given to the man who raises the most
corn in all the State.
2. A prize of $75 will be given to
the champion of each of the four Con-
test Districts.
8. A prize of $50 will be given the
champion in the Senior Corn Contest
in each county. Seniors, however, may
accept the ticket on the 1917 Tour to
Washington in lieu of their $50.
Trips to Washington will be given
in every county for the Boys and Girls
For all rules and regulations in both
Junior and Senior Contests write tc

tests, Columbus, Ohio

900 pounds weight off a car and still
give the car an equal amount Of
strength and even more power Thus
a 4,000-pound car is reduced to g.
900 pounds. Experiments are now be-
ing conducted to ascertain the exact
saving of tires and gasoline. The
substitution of Ignite pistons alone
promises to revolutionize an import
ant feature of the automobile indus
try. Small as the piston in the mo-
tor may be, it makes 5000 crank
shaft revolutions a minute-3,00O
starts and 5000 stops, and the sub
stitution of this light, strong metal
has increased the speed greatly and
lessened the shock and wear on mo-
tors.
1t is said that, owing to the ad-
vance made by American manufac-
turers in aluminium construction, Sec
retary Daniels has decided not to un-
dertake the construction of the Yep
pelin in the Washington navy yard, as
first contemplated, but will let the
contract to private organizations.
