CONCORD, n H., May l7.-If plans of
the New Hampshire Sheep Breeders asso-I
citation and the Chc1aire County Farmers
exchange are carried out, large part of
the wool clip, not only of New Hamp-
shire, but of Vermont and Maine will
be pooled, graded and marketed from sew
eral central points this year, thereby in
surfing better prices for the producers.
At meeting of the state ASSOCIATION of
sheep breeders, held in this city during
the winter, the result of last years pool
ing operations We're discussed and as re-
suit Of such success as followed the plan
Tor marketing, concerted move will be
made to enlarge the scope of the scheme
the coming season, following the spring
! clip. At the time of the annual meeting
| OF the New Hampshire Sheep Breeders
association, in connection with the dis
cussion Of the wool pooling plan, it was
/ pointed out that heeees which had been
carefully graded according to recognized
standards commanded much higher prices
than ungraded products and as a result
of the discussion it was agreed that greater
lattention should be paid to this phase of
marketing
i The secretary of the breeders associa-
ton, Edgar A. Perry, will be in charge Of
one Of the assembling points, Meredith
The plan now is to have the wool from
!, the central and southern sections OF New
! Hampshire, and possibly from the south
ern part of Vermont, assembled at keene
: While only 20 per cent of the New Hamp-
shire clip last season was pooled, it IS ex-
pected that nearly double that quantity
: will be comparatively marketed this year

street and when they were ready to
leave they started to turn around. Mr..
Nolin drove up Oak Grove avenue a
short distance and then backed down
on to the street railroad. II is claimed
that he backed down rapidly and that
the way the brake was set indicated
that the engine was stalled, but Mr..
Nolin denies this and says the street
car was running at excessive speed.
The street ear struck the Ford in the
middle Of the right side the side on
which Mrs Nolin was riding, and
showed it 81 or IS feet. BY that time
the automobile was showed clear of
the track and the street ear went some
distance futher. some say over 200 feet.
When the automobile stopped Mrs.
Nolin was thrown to the ground. The
side of the car was damaged and both
rear tires were stripped off. The yes
tibule of the street ear was smashed
and in the operation of reversing the
motor some of the mechanism of the
car was smashed, disabling the car.
Attorney NJ p Maurice for the Twin
State Co. and Attorney f. E. Barber
for Mr.. Nolin, Village Commissioners
John T. Kaine and others were on
hand shortly afterwards.
DR.. B. E. White was called and after
Mrs Nolin was examined she was taken
home, where she was examined by DR.
f. r. Lynch. DIR. Lynch stated that
besides receiving many bruises and
abrasions on her face and bod. Mrs

mother. But Billy was soon safely
outside Of the house and he heard
no more.
Then Billy rejoined Mother and
they went around the corner to
Toms home-the tiniest cottage in
the neighborhood. AS he lid not care
to risk being discovered at Toms,
he did not attempt to enter, but
slipped quietly around the cottage to
Toms bedroom window. 1t was open!
Billy was just about to climb in when
Toms dog barked and somebody
stirred in bed, so Billy put the toy
on chair near the window and ran
back to mother who was waiting on
the corner. F. syG~
When they reached their own
home they found that father had
finished trimming the beautiful
tree. They all admired it, each one
pnt on a few finishing touches and
then Billy hung up his stocking and
went upstairs to bed. Mother came
and tucked him in snugly for the
night and, fancying that he could
hear the jingle of bells and the beat
of tiny reindeer hoofs, he soon fell |
asleep.
When he awoke in the morning he
found mother bending over him.
Billy" she said, 81 have thought of
a Christmas plan almost as nice as
yours. How would you like to have
our Christmas tree this afternoon
and invite Tom and Louise?"
Billy clapped his hands and then
shouted, 81 void love to invite them,
mOther, and may be Santa CLAUSE"
In the afternoon, Billy's friends
arrived to enjoy his Christmas
tree. What happy faces they had!
What merry laughter was heard
And no one was happier than Billy,
who, dressed like Santa Claus,
handed out the gifts.

that the increase in the production
of raw material has not outstripped
the increase in the consumption of
the manufactured tobacco. They will
rely upon the force of public opinion
to justify them in their stand for
the cost of production and rea-
sonable profit. They stand ready to
make a strenuous effort to curtail
next years acreage if the markets
open below this figure. They say
that the manufacturers may, like
Samson, pull down the temple upon
themselves. Raw material must be
had out of which to make the man
ufactured package. The responsible
ity for any curtailment by the grow
ers will be placed upon the manu-
facturer. The daily average Of Bur-
ley tobacco on January 3rd will, in
all probability, determine in a great
measure the amount of acreage de-
voted to this c-op during 1921"

1t was Christmas eve and past
Billy's regular bed time, but he ling
cred before the sitting room fire,
talking with mother. about Santa
Claus and the many visits that he
would have to make. Mother said
that Billy had been a good boy so
Santa Claus would surely bring him
his new train. 'T hope he got my let
ter" said Billy as he thought Of the
happiness that Christmas would
bring him. Then he began to think
about his little friends Louise and
Tom, and he felt troubled about
them, for they both had said that
Santa Claus could not come to them
this year. They were his little
neighbors and playmates; he liked
them and he knew that they, too,
had been good.
Billy sat thinking for few MN
utes, then he jumped up and ran to
his room and took his little bank
from the top bureau drawer and
sho T. out his savings. He had $3.50
and he slipped it into his poket, hur- /
riedly put on his overcoat and nit
tens, and, cap in hand, ran back TO !!
the sitting room. "Mother," he said. /
"let's play Santa Clausl Let's 90
to the Zig toy store and buy a pres
emf for Tom and one for Louise? I |
have soTe money of my own to
spendr' Mother was surprised at his
plan, but she was glad to join in the
fun, so, together they were soon hur-
rying down the street to the big toy
shop There Billy bought a beauti-
full doll for Louise and a toy auto
mobile for Tom. On one package he
wrote "Louise from Santa Claus"
and on the other, "Tom, from Santa
Claus"
How happy Billy and mother felt
as they went along the street to
Louise's home. There was a light in
the kitchen and they could see Tom
and Louise's mother working there,
so while mother waited outside, Billy
slipped quietly in by the front door.

GREATEST THINGS OF 1913 AND 1920 ARE
 TOLD BY ROTARIANS

The greatest things that had been accomplished in 1919 and to be ac- complished in 1920 for the nation. southwest, state and city. were out lined at the regular luncheon yes f terday of the Rotary club. The meet ing opened with a resolution roll call" in which each Rotarian sug- gested some resolution that another Rotarian might we'll make for the coming year.
 Field Representative Miller of the Boy Scouts spoke at short length urging the Rotarians to redoubled ef- forts in their work of bringing to the boys sense of service. The Boy Scout program. he said, was a civic thing. and not one for a church or -Y- M. C. A, or other organizations alone.
 Ter said that these great cities which are being built will be inherited by race of men fit in every way for citizenship
 The greatest thing accomplished in the Untied States in 1919. said E. w. willingness of the minority to submit to the will of the majority.
 The greatest thing to be accom- plished in the United States in 1920, declared E. Power Conway, is to de- termine what is the real sense of the American people, to learn where the mind of the American people has been travelling in the past three or four years.
 The opening of the San Diego & Arizona railroad was one of the great est things accomplished in the south west in 1919, according to c. A. Stauffer.
 Service, unity and cooperation are to be the greatest accomplishments of the southwest in 1920, stated Dr. J. c. Norton.

was on the turntable. In order to push the one engine with the other a block of wood. about two feet long was placed between the locomotives. On the front of the pushing locomotive was Ma honey.
 The accident occurred. according to the witness, when the block of wood slipped down out of position while the engine was pushing, Mahoney being caught between the front of one en- zine and the rear of the other before the engineer of the pushing locomotive could stop.
 Malone, in response to questions from F. c. Struckmeyer, who conducted the examination for the plaintiff, said that he had seen similar methods of pushing engines employed before, but that when a block was used it was wired in place, in the other instances.
 The main efforts of the defense. led by George Purdy Bullard. were directed toward attempts to show that the rail road was not responsible for the acci- dent which cost Mahoney his life while the aim of the plaintiffs attorneys is to show that the railroad was respon- sible. The case will be continued to- day.

HOLDING UP AUTO
 LICENSES UNTIL TAXES ARE ALL PAID

Wailing and gnashing of teeth is oc- curing daily at the Capitol while Sec retary of State Nit Simms continues memorable in his policy of withholding automobile licenses until the appli- cants can produce county assessor s receipts for payment of all taxes that may be due
 The system, Simms says, is smoking out the auto Iax dodgers who could not be located. before, and is making everybody pay up on an equitable basis that produces some terrible roars.
 During the year 1918. the secretary of state says, he issued 5000 more auto licenses than the county asses sors could find to tax Most of the licenses are believed to have been for machines owned by persons who had no real. estate and Nwho conseuuentIv were overlooked by the assessors
 It is estimated that the owner of for state and county taxes, besides paying his poll and road tax and also his personal property tax before he is m line for license costing s. more or less. In addition, the records are thrown open to all city assessors who can swoop down upon the hapless au- toists probably for s1O more
 The 1918 list of auto licenses nua- bereh 23,s0O, and the 1919 list totaled 29.00O The 1920 list, now in the mak- ing. Is expected to exceed 3O.000
 According to unofficial reports. the cities, counties and state are due to collect, directly and indirectly approx Imately S500,000 in taxes this ya IT. oyer and above the amount expected as the result of Secretary Simms' method of smoking out the dodgers.
