Wanted, at good wa

to work at Tupelo Fiber
Factory.
ANDERSON-ALLEN

The marriage Of Mr.. Paul Allen
and Miss Annie Anderson on Satur-
day afternoon at four O'Clock came
as a surprise to the many friends OF
the young couple.
Although the wedding had been
set for June it had been kept a secret.
Mr.. Allen had been in the aviation
camp at San Antonio, Texas, and
when it seemed that the time was
drawing near to leave for France
he and Miss Anderson. decided to
move the date up and be married i'm
mediately. Only a few very close
friends were invited to the Presby-
terrain church to witness the ceremo-
ny, which was performed by Rev. G.
P. Scott and was most impressive.
The church was simply but tastefully
decorated in palms, ferns and cut
flowers. The bride wore a becoming
suit with hat, gloves and shoes of the
same shade. Mr.. Harris presided at
the organ and played sweetly as the
bridal couple entered and very softly
during the ceremony. The wedding
was altogether informal and after
the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs. Allen left
for Memphis, later visiting the
brides home in Canton.
They returned to Tupelo Wednes-
day and were entertained at dinner
Wednesday by Mr.. and Mrs. j. j.
Rogers, relatives of the groom.
Mr.. Allen is the second son of Mr..
and Mrs. A. w. Allen and was raised
in Tupelo, where he has a host of
friends. He is now in military SER
vice. Mrs. Allen is the capable
domestic science teacher in the high
school and is very popular with the
young people.
We hope that the groom may return
with many honors when he has done
his "bit" and that the young couple
may have a life filled with happiness.

HOW TO PRESERVE EGGS
Use of Waterglass Solution Is One of
the Best Observation-Disclosures Is
Also Good P~reservative.

Surplus eggs, preserved in the
spring, will supply the home with
good eggs in the fall and winter,
when eggs are hard to get and are
high-priced.
Eggs to be preserved must be fresh
and should be placed in the preserv-
ing container as soon as possible after
they are laid. One of the best meth
DDS of preserving is by the use of
~waterglass, a pale yellow, odorless,
sirupy liquid that can be bought by
the quart or gallon from the druggist
or poultry supply man 1t should be
diluted in the proportion of 1. part
of waterglass to 9 parts of water
which has been boiled and allowed to
cool. Earthenware crooks or jars are
the best containers, since their glazed
surface prevents chemical action from
the solution. The crooks or cans
should be scalded and allowed to cool
before they are used. A container
holding 5 gallons will accommodate
Is dozen eggs and will require one
quart Of waterglass.
To Use Waterglass Solution
Half fill the container with the
w~aterglass solution and place the
eggs in it. Eggs a be added from
day to day as they are obtained,
making sure that the eggs r cover
ed bv about 2 inches of waterglass
solution. Cover the %container and
place it in a cool place where it will
not have to be moved. Look at it
from time to time, and if there seems
to be danger Of too much evaporation,
add sufficient cool boiled water to
keep the eggs covered. Eggs removed
from the solution should be rinsed in
clean, cold water. Before they are
boiled holes should be picked in the
large ends with a needle to prevent
them from cracking.
Limewater Also P~reservative.
Limewater also is satisfactory for
preserving eggs and is slightly less ex-
~pensive than w~aterglass. A solution
is made by placing 2 or 8 pounds of
unslaked lime in 5 gallons of water
which has been boiled and allowed to
cool, and allowing the mixture to
stand until the lime settles and the
loud is clear. The eggs should be
placed in a clean earthenware jar or
other suitable vessel and covered to
q depth Of 2 inches with the liquid.
Remove the eggs as desired, rinse in
clean, cold water, and use imme-
diately.

to overcome the danger of that sue
tion. But what? l asked myself, for I
guessed from the first how the es-
such a thing absolutely required the
assistance of confederate. That
meant that the confederate would
have to do, on the Sis. exactly what
they had trapped Stavornell into do
ing on the other train-that is, obtain
private compartment-so that when
the time came for the escape to be
accomplished he could remove the
electric bulbs from the roof Of his
compartment, open the door, and,
when the two came abreast. the as
sasSin could do the same on the other
train. and presto! the dead man
would be alone. But what to use to
overcome the danger of that horrible
suction?"
"Ah, 1 see now what you were driv-
ing at when you inquired about the
ironing board or the Indian canoe.
The necessary sections to construct a
sort Of bridge could be packed in
either?"
"Yes. But they chose simple plan,
the cutting table. A good move that.
Its breadth minimiZed the peril Of the
suction; only. of course. it would have
to be pulled up afterward, to leave
no clew, and the added space would
call for enormous strength to over
come the power of that suction; and
CuOI uOuS SIIeHS meant powerful
man. The rest you can put together
without being told, Mr.. Narkom.
When that little vixen finished her
mail she put out the lights, opened
the door deliberately locking it after
her to make the thing more baffling),
crossed over on that table, was help
ed into the other compartment by
Murchison. and then as expeditiously
as possible slipped on the loose fem
mime outer garments she carried
with her in the brown portmanteau,
the table was hauled up and taken in
nothing but wire rope for that, sir
and the thing was done.
"Murchison, of course, purchased
two tickets. SO that they might pass
the barrier at the Low Level unques-
toned when they left, but he wasn't
able to get the extra ticket clipped
at London Bridge because there was
no passenger for it. That's how 1 got
on to the little game. For the rest,
they planned well. Those two trains
being always packed. nobody could
see the escape from the one to the
other. because people would be stand
ing up in every compartment, and the
windows completely blocked. But IL

you may possibly know. stands near

in the very act Of hanging up his

paratory to ordering tea.

Pray. don't hurry yourself upon my

I love them. What a day! What a

Narkom hastened from the room
without replying. The strain Of
poetry underlying the character of
this strange. inscrutable man. his
amazing love Of nature. his mo-
ments Of almost womanish weakness
and sentiment. astonished and mysti-
fed him. 1t was as II a hawk had

himself wholly without imagination.
he could not comprehend 1t in the
smallest degree.
When he returned, a few minutes
later. however. the idealist seemed to
have simmered. down into the mate
come merged in the ordinary. for he
found his famous ally no longer
studying the beauties Of nature, but
giving his whole attention to the sor-
did commonplaces of man. He was
standing before a glaringly printed
bill. one of many that were tackled
upon the walls. which set forth in
amazing pictures and double-leaded
type the wonders that were to be seen
daily and nightly at Olympia. where,

AIRSHIP ACCIDENTS
TO Be INVESTIGATED

WASHINGTON, June 20.-The many
accidents that occur in teaching avs
ators for the American military serv-
ice will be made feature of the air.
craft investigation by the Senate Com
mittee of Military Affairs
The subcommittee Senators rhom-
as New Frelinghlysen, Reed and
Smith, of Georgia, desire to learn just
no wand why the miShaps occur,
whether or not the airplanes are top
heavy, or faulty construction, or in
ferior make, or unsuitable types,
whether the motors of sufficient pow
err the control adequate, the mat lals
used in construction IF the most ap
proved kind and whether or not there
has been any criminal tampering by
spies or pro-Germans.
The question of instruction will be
considered from all angles. 1t will be
inquired whether the unfortunate
ayiators are sent UP too soon on their
own responsibility, whether there is
Indifference in this respect, whether
the practice fields are too crowded or
the climate is calculated to interfere
with the best work of the airplane.
The subcommittee will resume the
inspection of airplane factories next
Monday. The plants in New Jersey
will be first examined. All of these
make other than Liberty motors In
conducting its inquiry the sub-com-
mittee at the beginning went to the
plants using the Liberty motors. No
date has been set for the beginning of
hearings.
