FROG TAKES LONG RIDE
ON RIM OF FLYWHEEL
Went at Speed of Mile Every 81
Seconds for Eight Hours.

DUBLIN, Ga.-The champion Joy
ride of this section is the one a frog
took day or two since at the city
light and power plant on the big fly
wheel of one of the large engines in
the plant.
The city power house is located
near the Oconee river, and it is
nothing unusual for a frog to get in
the big generator room. Engineer
Fitchett noticed one hopping around
the floor during the night, and no
ticed that the frog finally settled
down for rest on the inside of the
rim of one of the big flywheels of a
generator unit then idle. An hour
or two later the time came to cut
in this generator, and he started the
big machine without a thought of
the frog.
At the end of the eight-hour run
for the machine it was stopped, and
Mr.. Fitchett was just little sur
prised to see the frog hop off the
flywheel after it had stopped, take
survey of his surroundings and
then hop through the doorway back
to his favorite pond. He could find
no other explanation of the incident
other than that the frog was on the
wheel when it began to move and
the terrific centrifugal force held
him tight against the inside of the
rim while the wheel whirled at thu
rate of one mile every 81 seconds
for eight hours. 1t is estimated
that the frog rode $50 miles during
the time the wheel was turning, and
was apparently uninjured when the
ride was ended.

"FAVORITE SONS"
SPRINCING UP FAST
'NATIVE" PRESIDENTIAL CAN.
DIDATES MORE NUMEROUS
THAN EVER BEFORE.

NEW YORK.-The greatest "fa-
vorite son" crop in the history of
American politics is now in full bios
som. Homegrown presidential pos
sibilities are under intensive cult
walton from coast to coast. Here
are some of the genus republican:
Gov. Frank 0. Lowden, Illinois.
Senator Warren G. Harding, Ohio.
Senator William E. Borah, Idaho.
Gen. John ]. Pershing, Nebraska.
Nicholson Murray Butler, New
York.
Senator Hiram Johnson, Califor-
MIA.
Gov. Calvin Coolidge, Massachu-
sets.
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Mas
sachusetts.
Gov. William Sproul, Pennsylva-
mia.
Senator Miles Poindexter, Wash
ington.
Senator Robert La Toilette, Wis
consin.
Judge ]. C. Prichard, North Caro-,
lima.
Gov. Henry J. Allen, Kansas.
Wood Only CosmopoIite.
The only candidate who may be
regarded as cosmopolitan is Maj
Gen. Leonard Wood, who has no fix
ed home owing to the eXigencies OF
army life. He was born in New
Hampshire, but now is in Chicago
The eight delegates of that state al
ready have been pledged to him.
The Johnson, Lowden and Hoover
booms already have spread beyond
the confines of their respective
states, the two former having won
a considerable number of instructed
delegates in open territory.
Many Are UnpIedged.
Of these republican "favorite
sons" none has received the pledged
Endorsement of his home state to
date. Lowden, though winning a ma
jority of Illinois delegates in the re.
cent primary, was forced to concede
some delegates to Wood and John
SON. Other "favorite son" states
which have already acted have chos-
en- unpledged delegates. These are
Kansas. New York, North Carolina
and Wisconsin.
In two Observation-Disclosures and
Observation-Disclosures are two en-
tries from each state Johnson and
Hoover battled fierceIv for Califor-
MAS Endorsement in the primary of
that state. Whether Massachusetts
will back Coolidge or Lodge is not
to be determined before
the national convention.
Owen Wins Own State.
The democratic ''favorite sons"
are:
Gov. Edward I. Edwards, New Jer-
sey.
William J. Bryan, Nebraska.
Senator Hitchcock, Nebraska.
James W. Gerard, New York.
Attorney General A. Mitchell
Palmer, Pennsylvania.
Gov. James NJ. Cox, Ohio.
William G. McAdoo, New York.
Senator Robert L. Owen, Oklaho-
ma.
Senator Hoke Smith, Georgia.
State Senator S. F. Simmons,
North Carolina.
Owen is the only one of these who
has received his states fixed in
dorsement North Carolina has Sc
lected an unpledged delegation which
is expected to vote for Simmons on
the first ballot.

when the wheat is ripe these machines

says he has put his wheat in the bin
at $1.25 per acre which is, indeed, a
great saving. 1t is estimated to cost
about $3.50 per acre to harvest with

RED CROSS SWIMMERS

A hfe-saving campaign under the
auspices of local Chapters of the Red
Cross for the purpose of reducing the
number of drownings during the sum-
mer bathing season is urged in a
communication recently received by
local Red Cross officials from South
western Divisional headquarters of
the Red Cross at St. Louis.
The program includes the estab-
lishment of corps of Red Cross
life-savers in all towns and vicinities
Men and women are eligible for the
corps if they are qualified swimmers.
Girls must be able to swim 20 yards
partially clothed disrobe and con-
tinue for at least 80 additional yards;
dive and retrieve a ten-pound sand
bag from the bottom of the pool;
break three varities of death grips;
demonstrate four carys and explain
and demonstrate the Schaeffer prone
pressure of resuscitation. The mems
test is essentially the same.
A f1earn-to-swim" week will be
held throughout the various states
Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas
from July 25 to 81. During this per-
iod Red Cross chapters are being
asked to encourage the teaching of
swimming lessons. The ST. Louis
Chapter of the Red Cross, which is
conducting a learn to vim cam
paign, in two weeks recently, gave
free swimming lessons to almost 1000
persons, through a corps of Red Cross
lfe-savers and municipal life guards.
A list of @don't" for swimmers
that is expected to cut down the num-
Der of preventab1e drownlngs also
has been issueud. Some of the don't
are: Don't swim on full stomach,
wait at least two hours after eating;
don't swim If overheated; don't swim
until exhausted; don't swim if you
have heart trouble; don't dive without
accurate knowledge of the depth of
the water; don't fail to learn Red
Cross life-saving and resuscitation
methods; don't cry for help in fun;
don't go in swimming alone unless
you are an expert.

WHEAT AND SUBSCRIPTION
PRICES

just a very few years ago it took
about three bushels of wheat to pay
for a years subscription to The
World. Now it takes less than a
bushe1 to pay for it, The reason is
that wheat has advanced and the sub
scrption has not, but everything that
goes to make The World has adj
vanced in about the same proportion
to wheat. That's one of the reasons
it is necessary for country papers
to advance their subscription price
and most of them have done SO. The
World is one of the few papers in this
section that remains at the same old
price. IF The World should advance
its subscription to keep pace with
wheat, corn and other comm odities
the price would go to about five dol
lars year The increase when it does
come viii be fifty cents q year, max
ing the paper two dollars instead of
dollar and half The rate is now
two dollars unless paid in advance
Look at the expiration date opposite
your name and keep posted on when
to pay up
