CIVILIZATIONS OF THE PAST
Nations With High Degree Of CuItlva-
ton That Are Now Only Memory
In History's Pages.

Thousands of years ago-lOng before
the great western nations of today,
long before even Greek and Roman
were heard Of-there were more or
less advanced civilizations on both
sides Of the Pacific. China, for exam
pie, had grown into stable MongOl-
ian kingdom perhaps 1000 years be-
fore the beginning of our era. A
Chinese author writes: "There Is no
existing nation in the world that has
a larger past than China. She has
seen the rise and fall Of the ancient
Egyptian dynasties; the extension Of
the Persian empire the conquests of
Alexander; the irresistible advance of
the Roman legions; the deluge Of the
TeutOnic hOrdes from the north, and
the birth of all the nations of modern
Europe"
The Japanese also, people com
pounded of various elements, but
chiefly Mongollan and Malayan, stood
stood at the beginning of our era on
high plane of civilization, and even
then exhibited the tendencies and the
adaptiveness which distinguish them
today.
Then away to the east in Central
and South America, civilizations
waxed and waned, reaching their high
est development in the Aztec and In
can empires, the latter Of which was
an extremely interesting example of
despOtic socialism.

HOW SARDINES ARE PACKED
Comparatively Simple Process, but the
Work Requires Expert Supervision
and Must Be Carefully Done.

The process Of preparing sardines Is
very simple but requires experience
and great care. Upon the arrival Of
the sardines at the factory they are
Immediately placed on large wooden
tables about forty feet long, where
they are cleaned. This process takes
only q second, and q fairly efficient
worker can clean from 300 to 400
pounds of fish per day, according to
a writer in Fishing Gazette.
= The fish are then placed in watts Of
brine, where they are allowed to re-
main from one-half to two hours, &C
cording to size. They are then placed
In wire trays equipped with prOngs in
upright position, where they are al
lowed to dry for about an hour before
they are ready for cooking. This Is
done by placing the trays In large steam
ovens, where the fish are subjected to
a pressure of about two pounds of
steam, twenty minutes being consumed
In properly cooking the small fish and
as much as thirty-five minutes In cook
ing the larger sizes.
This cooking has to be carefully
watched; if the sardines are subjected
to too much steam they become some
what brittle and break when being
packed. Some sardines are cooked in
Oil however, an extra charge is made
for this process, and comparatively
few are sold.
After the sardines have been prop
erly steamed the trays are placed on
long counters for sorting, which is
done by carefully selected and we'll
paid girls. After sorting, the tins are
filled with oil and placed on shelves,
where they are allowed to remain for
about twelve hours in order to insure
the proper impregnation of the oil.
Pure olive oil is used in preparing
most sardines, especially the best
grades, but for some markets a mix
ture of olive oil and high-grade pea
nut oil is desired.

BIG THINGS IN PROSPECT.
Pleasant Hill Academy May Be Greatly
Broadened and Enlarged

Visitors over Sunday, June 22, at
Pleasant Hill Academy were Principal
I. c. Buck, of the Grandview Normal
Institute and Secretary j. E. McAfee,
OF the America Missionary Association.
This Association has for more than
thirty-five years maintained schools at
Grandview and Pleasant Hill.
The greatly increased cost of educa.
tion has led the Association to consider
the question of consolidating these two
schools or strengthening one until it
shall more adequately meet modern
requirements.
Those gentlemen, together with
Principal Wharton, of the Pleasant Hill
Academy, have been studying thei
question. Better transportation facil-
tiles throw further doubt upon the wis
dom of maintaining two expensive in
situations aiming to do the same char
acter of work, So near each other as
these two schools are now located.
The Assertion is conscious that if
its academy at Pleasant Hill Is to be
continued, the buildings, equipment
and the entire program must be greatly
improved. 1t is seeking to put its
money where it will serve the lagest
number, and where the responses in
moral and other support from the COM
munity is most fully assured. What
ever is done now at Pleasant Hill or
elsewhere should take into account a
program covering the next twenty
five or fH'ty years, for present day
requirements in education demnd a
high gra0,, thoroughly efficient and,
therefore, expensive equipment.
To mali tain its cham of fifty or more
schools in all parts of the country IN
wolves the American Missionary Asso-
citation in large expenditures of money.
1t has numerous very desirable foun-
dations for efficient schools and it is
planning extensive developments
among these institutions. 1t desires
to make no mistake in placing any of
the necessary investments.
The program at Pleasant Hill will be
maintained next year under the prin-
cipalship of Prof. E. R. Wharton and
continued study will be given the larg-
er question OF the future.
1t is understood that if the Academy
is to be permanently continued large
investments must be made and in
creased support given a program wor-
thy of the new day, and recognized
educational standards. Some improve
ments and repairs have already been
made at the Academy aid others Will
be added now The farm is in good
condition. All signs point to an In
creasded enrolment of students and an
unusually successful year. Xxx

GIVEN ONE YEAR IN THE PEN.
Lex and Henry Smith and Paul Dayton
Rob Store at Hamilton, Ala,

1t will be remembered that about
three weeks ago some persons broke
in the store of j. E. Burnett & Sons
and stole an unknown quantity OF
goods. Lex and Henry Smith and Pau
Dayton were suspected of being the
guilty parties. They at once went tc
Hamilton, Alabama.
Shortly after reaching Hamilton
they broke into a drug store and stole
a punch board worth $500. They were
suspected at once but as the authori
ties had no positive proof they found il
necessary to arrange with Paul Dayton
to let him go free provided he would
turn states evidene, which he did.
He gave the whole thing away, the
Smith boys were tried and given q
term of one year each in the peniten-
tiary and fined $500. That means they
will serve one year at tard labor and
after that they will have to work oat
the fine. All told it will require about
one and ene-half years and they will
be released early in December, 1920.
1t SENS they employed the sam
method to get into the drug store that
they did to enter the J. E. Burnett
store: They cut the putty from around
a window glass, removed the glass
and went IN. They hid the punch
board in the garrett of an old building
near where they boarded.
The boys admitted to the Alabama
authorities having broken into the j..
It. Burnett store and SAID they each
got a suit of Unonalls and pair of
shoes.
Paul Dayton was tried Monday fore
noon before Judge S. N. Smith and
sentenced for three years in the State
industrial School, but the sentence
was temporarily suspended and the boy
was placed on parole in care OF his
father. Should he get into further
trouble there will be nothing for Judge
Smith to do except to send him away
for the three years.
The evidence brought out during the
trial showed that Paul Dayton did not
enter the Burnett store but that he
ard Lex Smith stayed at the depot
and Henry Smith entered the Burnett
store and broght pair of unionalls and
a pair of shoes to each of the boys and
they put them on. Paul Dayton adj
mitted that he thot at the time that
the goods. had been stolen. 1t seems
he was not directly involved in the
break ing into the drug store at Hamil-
ton, Alabama.
Panl Dayton willingly returned from
Alabama with Mart Fl. Burnett, who
was coming here on visit whit home
folks.
