KING AND QUEEN
 MARRIED 25 YEARS
! England Celebrates Silver Anniver-
 sary of Wedding of Royalty Thanksgiving Services at St. Paul's

London, July 6,-London today wit messed the first celebration in well over a century by a British monarch and his ccnsort of their silver we'd ding while still on the throne. AL though the war necessarily interfered with plans for any elaborate celebra- tion of the occasion, the people were not to be deprived altogether of the opportunity to show their love and respect for the King and Queen and to congratulate them on the compile tion of the quarter century of mar ried life.
 The most notable feature of the day was national thanksgiving ser vice in St. Paul's Cathedral Their majesties, with the Queen Mother, Alexandra, and other members of the royal family drove to St. Paul's in open carriages. Immense crowds lined the streets and cheered the pro- cession which consisted of half a dozen carriages and an escort of Household Cavalry as it passed slow ly through the city.
 The archbishops of Canterbury and York, with number of bishops and many other clergy, received the King and Queen on the steps of the cath edral. A procession was then formed which marched down the central ais le toward the altar.s An immense congregation of nctables filled the cathedral. Among those present were the cabinet ministers, prominent of ficers of the army and navy, and the diplomatic representatives of the al lied and neutral countries.
 The service consisted of the nation al anthem, the Te Deum, prayers of general thanksgiving, and short ad- dress by the archbishop of Canter- bury. At the conclusion of the ser vice the royal party re-entered the carriages and proceeded to Guildhall to receive the good wishes of the City of London. In behalf of the City the Lord Mayor presented to their majesties the large fund raised by popular subscription to commen- crate the silver wedding anniversary. The fund, in accordance with the ex- pressed wish of their majesties, will be distributed among the various na- tional war chaEaties.

Trial by Ordeal.

If theft takes place in a Japanese household, all servants are required to write q certain word with the same brush. The conscience is supposed to betray it's workings in the waves of the ideographs written. Tracing an telegraph involves sucll an effort, of muscular directncss anil undivided at tentiOn that this device often leads to the discovery of the guilty party. The test is, at all events. more humane thaR the ordeal of boiling water. to which accused persons were formerly submitted in Japan.

As the Central South began to be developed in the early part of the nineteenth century type of resi- dence somewhat different from the early Colonial was evolved, more suited to the long summers preva- lent in that part of the country. Such houses were built with an abund- ance of windows, wide porches and railways. A typical residence of the wealthier class of Southerner of that period is to be found standing today in the town of Quitman, Miss. This house, pictured above, was built by General A. W. Trotter in 1884, and occupied by him until 1876. It is at present the home of Eugene B. Smith.

Which Kind of ParIor?

The building trade today is largely using methods in use in the days Of the Pharaoils, said the principal ar chitect of the office of works at the Royal Sanitary institute in England recently. "rhe parlor question:" he went on, "is q difficult one. Some people prefer one large, pleasant room to a pokey living room and small par Tor. Others urge that the parlor is necessary for children to do their les sons in. to accommodate the piano and household goods, and also the coffin in the event of death in the family"

KICK" AGAINST DIPPING LAW

Seeral lusty "kicks" were register against the law requiring all own- CTS of cattle in Jefferson county to dip the cattle to rid them of the Texas fever tick. No formal action was taken, because the law provides for penalizing those who do not comply with it's provisions. One of the com rlaints is that cows pastured in the woods pick up ticks, and that frequent dipping reduces the supply of milk produced by milch cows.

Numerous examples of the last ing qualities of frame construction are to be found in the early Colonial houses which still occasionally greet the sight of the traveller in New England, the Virginias and else where along the Atlantic seaboard Many of these houses, which are even now as rule in an excellent state of preservation, were built years before the Revolutionaiy War What is said to be the oldest struc- ture in America today is the Barker house, built of wood, at Pembroke Mass. This house was commenced in 1928 and is still rendering good service as a residence.
