"Wnney" Slemmer and the team
strength Of Central High School in the
annual "quads" held yesterday afternoon
on the Wanamaker roof. we would like
10 call attention to the fact that the
very obliging shot-rutters had quite an
afternoon Of it and claimed more at
tentiOn than any other set of weight
tossers that has exhibited in these parts
for some time.
When the bunch of husky and what
not athletes took the little round pill
and, lead by "Muggsy" McGraw. hied
themselves to the ninth floor of the
Wanamaker Store, shortly after the meet
had started. not one of the 500 or so
spectators followed them They re-
ceived nothing but sympathic glances
and the well-known o. O. from the school

By EDWIN ]. POLLOCK


| A STOCKY young man with suitcase
n in his right hand and overcoat
thrown over his left arm tore up the
flight OF stairs that leads to the train
shed at Broad Street Station. For the
purposes of speed and convenience, he
was using the skip-step system.
Gaining the top, he came to full
stop for a second, gave the signs over
the gates to the trains a sweeping glance
and then started off in the direction of
the New York express. When he had
full steam up, friend snatched his arm,
threw him off his balance and almost
landed him on the floor.
you seem to be in a hurry lieuten-
ant" said the friend. with a great at
tempt at humor.
Leaves for Home
az wouldn't be If they didn't start
those New York trains on time. / see
7 have a minute yet. Just time enough
to tell you this: You may think I'm
cheating in these civilians. but I'm not.
I'm out of the service now. so don't call
me lieutenant. I'm on my way home,
and if [ miss that train I'll never for
give you"
The ex-lieutenant dropped his suit
case for a second and extended his right.
The friend shook "hands with Pun
pelly of Yale
After two years in the service of
Incle Sam, Harold A. Pumpelly who
gained fame for Yale and himself back
in 1912; when he booted a field goal from
the 50-yard line in the last minute or
play and tied Princeton is entering a
new game. and he is going to direct the
same kind of whole-hearted energy TO
his new enterprise as he did to football
| and war.
Started Early
Two years ago Pumpelly was wei
| established in profitable business, pu'
he gave it up TO study aviation. ne
saw the handwriting on the wall ano
! knew that war was close. Wheh he
applied for a commission in the aNlatioi
corps after war had, been declared, he
knew planes inside out. but he was
turned down.
His experience on the gridlron had
! taught him not to recognize obstacles
as such He enlisted as COB was
sent to Pensacola and there demon
strated his ability. He was commits
stoned last December.
Naval aviation men had faith in him
and he was placed in charge of the
| post graduate ground school at League
Island He was sent to the local navy
yard in January, 1918. The powers thai
be decided that he could do more goot
on this side impartng his knowledge tC
| others than he could in actual cam
pagning. so he was destined TO rema il
at League Island until he was dis
charged from the service yesterday.
Pumpelly will enter the tobacco grow
ing business on a farm at Owego, n. Y.
with his brother, Spencer Pumpelly. an
other famous Yale athlete, who was ont
of the greatest pitchers in Yale base
ball. Henry Howe, brother of Harold
Howe. the Yale All-American quarter
back of 1912. also will be one of th
partners.
Both Spencer Pumpelly and Henr.
Howe were in the service. The forme
was in the naval intelligence and th'
latter gained fame as an aviator il
France. Howe was one of the American
aviators who flew over the President
boat as it steamed into Brest on Mr.
Wilson's first trip abroad.

SELECT YOUR SEED CORN EARLY

When corn 'ripens, drop all other
business and select an ABUNDANT sup
ply of seed corn from the standing
stalks. The process is too important
to be conducted incidentally while
musking. When selecting seed corn
give the process your entire attention
Get the very best that is be had and
preserve it well, and your increased
yields will return you more profit
than any other work you can do on
your farm.
Seed corn selection is as impoI-
tant as the selection of sires and
dams in the breeding of live stock.
The yield of corn in the south can
easily be doubled by proper selection
of seed and proper cultivation.
If you must buy seed, pay your
neighbor a reasonable price for select
ed dried seed of a variety that has
made good in a neighboring field;
but don't pay a stranger fancy price
for seed claimed to give miraculous
yields.
Trust in Providence and keep
seed corn dry"
Actual tests have proved that care
fully stored seed corn will yield as
much as Is bushels more to the acre
than seed from the ordinary storage
of the corn crib. This would mean
almost double the yield for some
folks.
How and When to Select Seed Corn.
hn nI
ly from the field.
2. Commence as soon as the corn is
we'll dented.
3. Set aside three or four days for
this purpose.
4. The best seed selection Is pos
sible only from stalks in the field
where the height on stalk, number of
ears to the stalk and hanging charac-
teristic as well as the shuck cover can
be seeen.
5. Ears should be we'll filled at
the butts and tips.
8 Select ears hanging at about the
center of the stalk.
Select ears that hang over with
points down as they shed water and
are less subject to spelling.
s. Select ears with medium shanks,
both as to length and diameter.
8. Do not sacrifice good ears for
fancy points.
10. Select ears whose tops are well
covered with husks. This protects the
corn from insects and there is less
less danger of the grain being dam
aged.
II. AS rule select ears with small
cobs and deep kernels.
IL. Keep the selected ears in a
tight box or barrel until ready to
plant If attacked by weevils during
winter, fumigate with carbon BIZ
sulphide. Write for directions If
needed.

DOUBLING THE CORN
YIELD IN DILLON.

Clemson College.-Purebred corn
means more corn. In other words,
blood will tell'' in corn as well as IN
animals and people. That the yield of
corn can be greatly increased, once
farmers are induced to use purebred
seed, Is well illustrated by the eX-
perience of three farmers in Dillon
whom County Agent S. w. Epps in
duced to use purebred seed this
year. He reports as follows:
"Visited three of my demonstra-
tors that l succeeded in getting to
plant pure seed corn. All three men
are well pleased with the seed and
say it will make considerable more
than any they have ever planted. Mr..
Z. A. Ellen planted one field in the
pure seeed and right near he plant
ed another field in his best seed. Te
worked both fields practically the
same and tells me that he expects to
get at least seventy-five bushels per
acre where he used pure seed, while
where he used his own seed, he eX-
poets only forty. He says number
of good farmers have told him that
he will make one hundred bushels
per acre where he used pure seed. All
farmers who have seen this piece OF
corn have asked that Mr.. Ellen save
them seeed for another year.
