THE "ANGELUS OF STRIFE"

There's little town about sixty miles south of Birmingham, on the Louisville X Nashville, called Yer bena.
 The town is well named.
 It is redolent of the old-fashioned Southern flower. It is peopled by simple farmer folk. Some substan- tial citizens of Montgomery keep summer homes there.
 There are few sounds about the place. An occasional mule team rat ties down red-clay road drawing an empty wagon to the general store or bumps pleasantly back to- ward the Chiffon County hills. Occa- sionally gentle wind causes the leaves of the oak trees that shade the town to sigh one of those signs of content that men breathe after good meal or good sermon or a we'll rendered piece of music.
 It's as peaceful place as can be found in Alabama, or any ether place. It might we'll have been nodded after Goldsmith's Sweet Auburn"
 But there's new sound there now
 It is the Angelus of Strife.
 It calls the people of Verbena not only to worship, but to deeds.
 Every afternoon at 6 o'clock the bell of the Verbena church rings. It continues to ring for two minutes, and while its brazen song is lifted the people of Verbena stand and pray.
 With heads uncovered and bowed, each man, each woman, each child, each saint and each sinner repeats these words:
 "Gcd bless our President, our sol dfers and the Nation, and guide them on to victory"
 When the sound begins the ob- servance of its call is universal. ! Men halt in the streets: wagons are pulled up on the road; women rise from their knitting or pause in their dookers@fcr they have early SUD- pers in Verbena-the splowman halts his work, and each. repeat the,prayer. Verbena calls it "The Prayer of l the Bell,' and it is said that men who have never been known to pray ] before answer it's call dutifully- From an unidentified Birmingham f(Ala.) paper.

Strict Accounting.

A business man requires those who
handle money to account for all ex
penditures, holds an employee respon
sible for the full amount trusted to
him and demands vouchers for all dis.
bursements. Even then he may not
be satisfied without cash audit by
an accountant. Material should be
accounted for on exactly the same
theory us cash itself (although pos
sibly less rigorously), says Stephen
Gilman, in Industrial Management.

from English almanacs in giving, be-
sides the usual information, a Chris

OF the year, says London Graphic. The
names set forth have to receive the
approval of the king. The object aimed
at is TO secure a greater choice of
names for parents and to avoid the
endless repetition of q dozen or so
names. A similar name almanac is is
sued under royal authority in one of

POLISHING Diamonds.

Before the polishing of diamond
is begun the rough stone must be held
firmly. This is accomplished by build
ing a solder mold for it. The mold is
first roughly shaped by hand and
heated. 1t is then reshaped as often
as necessary to fit the stone perfectly.
When it is exactly right, 1t is heated
again and the stone dropped in. Held
firmly by the snug solder molo, the
stone can then be handled easily.

Hoover said, ian examination was
made of the costs and profits of refin-
ing and it was finally determined that
the spread between the cost of raw
and the sale of refined cane sugar
should be limited to S1.30 per hundred
pounds. The pre-war differential had
averaged about So cents and Increased
costs were found to have been impos-
ed by the war in increased cost of re-
fning, losses, cost of bags, labor, insur-
ance, interest and other things, rather
more than cover the difference. After
prolonged negotiations the reiners
were placed under agreement estab-
fishing these limits on October l, and
anything over this amount to be agreed
extortionate under the law.
"In the course of these investiga-
lions it was found by canvass of the
Cuban producers that their sugar had,
during the first nine months Of the
past year, sold for an average of about
$4.24 per hundred f. o. b. Cuba, to
which duty and freight added to the
refners' cost amount to about $500
per hundred. The average sale price
of graduated by various refneries, ae-
cording to our investigation, was about
$3.50 per hundred, or a differential Of
S1s4.
''In reducing the differential to s130
there was a saving to the public Of "a
cents per hundred. Had such a diff
ferential been in use from the LIST Of
January, 1917. the public would have
saved in the first nine months Of the
year about So. 500 600"
