given instructions.
At twelve o'clock the entire number
gathered at the Pythian hotel where
dinner was served. At two o'clock
they formed in Inca nd marcehd to the
depot, leaving on the 2:52 train.
Hundreds of relatives and friends
assembled in front of the Pythian Ho-

the boys received many hearty cheer
from Haywood patriots as they de-
parted for service against the hated
Huns.

THREE KINDS OF GENTLEMEN
Somewhat Peculiar Distinctions That
Are Made by Inhabitants Of the
Emerald Island.

Ireland is the only country in which
1t has I've been customary to classify
gentlemen as of three distinct kinds Of
species.
Probably the distinctions are still
recognized to some extent In the EN-
erald isle, but two centuries ago, and
even much later, they were defined
respectively as Gomez the "half-mount.
ed" (two) the gentleman every inch
of him." and (three) the gentleman to
the backbone"
The first class consisted of descend
ants of CromwelI's soldiers, who. If
they could ride well. were called
"Buckskin Breeches." or "Squireens'"
The second class was composed OF
descendants of old families whose es'
.tates had been forfeited to the crown
(for rebellion or other reasons), anu
who had been compelled to lower them.
selves by working for a living. In trade
or the professions.
The third class-the gentlemen 10

were transferred to movable frame
hives and handled by improved meth
DDS. If all the ~beekeepers now using
box hives would adopt the modern
type of movable frame hive they
would add many millions Of pounds Of
honey to the nations supply. Much
Of the honey produced by colonies in
box hives Is wasted by crude methods
Of securing the crop, and these col
onies are reduced in earning value by
uncontrolled swarming, and by the
annual loss of bees which die In win
ter because of lack of protection and
sufficient food stores.
While bees may be transferred Mt
any eason when they are active, the
best time is during the season Of fruit
bloom when the combs contain little
honey. and when the bees will gather
nectar rather than rob honey from q
hive which is being transferred. An
other good time for transferring is
Immediately after the first swarm Of
the year when the number of bees
In the hive Is greatly reduced, and
when there Is no danger Of losing or
fnjuring the queen. She goes with the
swarm, leaving queen cells in the hive.
Transferring when robber bees are
active requires that the work be done
inside a screened or bee-tight build
ing.
There are five methods of trans
ferring. One consists In cutting the
combs from the box hive and placing
them in q new movable frame hive,
and transferring the bees by shaking
or drumming them from the old hive.
Another way Is to drum the bees out
and move them to new hives which
have been previously provided with
full sheets of CONFORMATION. The
third method consists In catching the
swarm as it issues from the old hive
and Immediately putting 1t In the new
hive placed on the old stand. In the
fourth method the new hive containing
cOmb-foundation Is placed on the old
ore. and an opening for the bees pro-
vided between the two. The fifth
method requires q little special equip
ment, and takes advantage of the fact
that in some localities the bees are
almost sure to swarm. Place the new
hive near the old one and provide It
with a q~ueen-frap a the entrance
In such a way that when the bees
swarm the queen will be caught. and
the worker bees automatically will
enter the new hive. These methods
