Autoists Have
Tough Times.

Autoists have been having
tough tines on Cumberland
mountain during this blizzard
and cars, when stalled, have lit
orally been frozen to the ground.
Friday night an aged man, who
was crippled, and his son left
Sequachee in a Ford to cross the
mountain. They had been in
Florida and were on their return
north. When near the toll gate
on the mountain their engine
quit business and they were un-
able to proceed farther. Night
had fallen and the blizzard was
raging through the forests. They
were ignorant as to where to find
house for shelter and remain
ed in the car overnight. They
had no matches and were unable
to build fire so as to keep
warm. In a half frozen condi-
tion they awaited daylight, and
when it came, saw Il dwelling
not over a hundred yards away,
which in the darkness of the
night they had not suspected
was there. 1t was impossible to
move their machine, as it was
frozen in the grounl, and they
have been staying with the
mountaineers, awaiting a change
in weather conditions so as to
extricate their machine and pro-
ceed.
Near Myer s lifl, four niles
from Tracy City, big fine car
is frozen solid in the ground.
The driver was proceeding this
way and lured by better-ap-
pearing road, left the main road
to try it. He had not proceeded
far till his machine sank to the
anles in soft ground. His efforts
to extricate his car with it's own
power were unavailing, even
when supplemented with cable.
He summoned assistance from
the garage at Tracy City, but
before help could arrive his ma
chine was frozen solidly in the
bog and there it remains. He,
too, is awaiting a change in
weather conditions when his me-
chine may be removed and his
journey to the warmer cline OF
Florida resumed.-Seq. Cores

This state of affairs widened the
gap between Huston and Burton.
They hated each other pretty fierce
ly, but Burton never went out of
his way to show it, while Huston
took every opportunity to vent his
spleen. Ginger saw Betty very sell

orally accompanied by Huston.

months.
Before leaving, Huston proposed

of the many strange condolences
that happen in this world Huston
was sent to the battalion and COM

Then things happened.

Before that fateful time no one
would have dreamed Of comparing
the two credits.
. Already Japanese manufacturers
have quadrupled their exports TO
Australia. Ships which in the past
averaged a cargo of 450 tons now
bring to Sydney $500 tons. The
japanese have captured a great deal
of the trade once firmly held by
American, British, German and
French exporters. In the silk mar
ket they have won the premier posi-
ton, and Australian shops are now
filed to overflowing with cheap
Japanese silks.
The following Japanese goods are
now sold with great success in the
Australian market: Glasses, scientific
instruments. silks. Panama hats.
cottons, toys, insulators, electric
light apparatus, camphor, sulphur
oil, matches, basketware, rubber
tires, bottles, porcelain.
Japan's rapid industrial and COM
mercial strides will serve to intensity
the formidable competition which
the American manufacturer will
have to meet both in domestic and
foreign markets after the war. They
afford another striking proof of the
necessity for restoring friendly rela-
tons between capital and labor, Sc
curing fewer and better business
laws and moulding a better public
attitude toward business so that AM
crican industry may be rid of its

JAPAN FIGHTING
HARDIN WAR FOR
WORLD MARKETS
Has Made Tremendous Strides
in Manufacturing and Ex-
porting Since 1914

In the past few years Japan has
undergone a tremendous industrial
dev velopment. The enormous pro-
gress made by her in manufacturing
and exporting since the outbreak of
the war is little realized in this
country.
1t is not fully recognized that
Japan is gradually changing from
an agricultural to an industrial
country, and that in her new drive
to win some of the foreign markets
she has captured considerable of the
business which was formerly held
by this country. The great expan-
sion of her foreign trade since i914
is shown by the official returns of
her trade in 1916.
Exports Far in Excess of Imports
During that year the total value of
imports was 756, 100000 yen, being
an increase of 224,00O,0OO, while
the exports for the same period
amounted to 1,127. 100000 yen, be-
ing an increase of about 419, goo, 600
yen. The actual excess of exports
over imports for the year was S71. =
100000 yen, as compared with 1T0,-
100000 yen for 1915.

good and plenty.
THAT night Huston sent for Gin
ger and had talk with him. Tried
to make him believe that he har-
bored no animosity. detailed him as
mail orderly. the first act of a cam
paign of petty cruelty. BY being
mail orderly Ginger would have to
handle Betty's letters to Huston ana
Huston's letters to her. Ginger saw
through it Immediately and his hate
burned stronger. From that night
on it was one indignity after an
other. just a merciless persecution.
but Ginger never complained; just
stored up each new act and swore
vengeance.
1T came to such a pass that Gin
ger could bear ii no longer; he de-
cided to kill Huston and only waited
for a favorable opportunity to pre-
sent itself | think it was only his
love for Betty which had held him
back so long; he couldn't bear the
thought of her grieving for her dead
lover.
"One night, in the front-line
trench orders were received that.
after an hours intense lombard
ment of the enemy's lines, the COM
pany would so over the top at 4.30
the next morning. Huston was to
go over with the first wave, while
Ginger was in the second. Here
was his chance.
"All that night he crouched on
the fire step, musing and brooding,
nursing his revenge. He prayed TO
Betty to forgive him for what he
was going to do.
After the bombardment the next
morning. over went the first wave,
a line of bayonets and madly cheer
ing men. Ginger only saw one in
that crowd: his eyes never left Hus-
ton. His finger twitched and ca
ressed the trigger of his rifle-his
long looked-for opportunity had
come.
frhe first wave had gone about
sixty yards, when Ginger let out a
curse. Huston had been hit ana
was down. and he saw his revenge
slipping through his fingers. But.
no. Huston was not dead: he was
trying to rise to his feet; he was
up. hopping on one leg, with the
blood pouring from the other. Then
he fell again, but was soon sitting
up bandaging his wounded leg, u.s.
ing a tourniquet from his first aid
packet.
"A surge of unholy joy ran
through Ginger. Lifting the safety

taken place since the beginning of
the war may be seen from the fact
that for the year 1914 there was
actually an excess in the value of
the imports over exports of about
100000 yen.
Cotton manufacture is one Of her
principal industries, and the statis-
tics show that the average number
of spindles working daily in Japan
in 1914 (the latest available year,
was nearly 100000. Wool manu-
facture was not carried on before
the war to any great extent, but II
has now received a considerable i'm
petus, and Japanese factories are
executing orders from the Russian
Government.
The production of iron and steel
- both in government and private
works--has also been very consider
able, the best iron ores being i'm
ported from China. JapanNhas some
100000 tons of shipping now under
construction, and the industry is In
flcurishing condition. Her mer-
chant marine consists of 2,170

Oeean-going steamers exceeding l.
coo tons number 44S, with total
tonnage of 1,42S,212 tons. Thirty
nine ocean-going steamers of 140,-

1t might be added that Japan il
