FORTUNE FOR SIGN PAINTERS
Engineers Have Searched Long for
Man Believed to Possess Most
Valuable Secret.

The living worth Of good work IL al
ways recognized, even in small things.
Sign painters do not usually achieve
wealth or fame, yet, 1t is declared.
fortune awaits the nan who painted
a sign at Harper's Ferry, on the Bal
timore & Ohio railroad, shortly after
the completion Of the line at that
point.
For years the engineers have been
trying to ascertain who mixed the
paint and applied 1t to the sign. which
was placed in position at the Harper's
Ferry station many years ago. The
summers heat and winters storms
have In no way dlmmed the luster Of
the paint used to make the words
"Harper's Ferry" They stand out as
boldly as the day they were formed by
the artists brush.
The wood around the letters has
been worn about one-sixteenth Of an
inch by sand beaten against 1t by
fierce winds, but the letters have with
stood the elements.
II Is asserted that no paint manu-
featured nowadays is equal In dura-
bility to that which was applied to
the old sign. and If the person who
mixed It is still living and will take
advantage of the secret he possesses
as to Its composition it is said he can,
by engaging in the paint-manufactur-
ing business, soon accumulate wealth.

munity In which the number Of work.
ingmen who carry union cards and an
honorable discharge from the army
was not so numerous as In Kern
county. 1t would surprise him to know
that at least half of the men who went
into the service from Kern county are
or have been members of a labor union.
The resolution follows.
"Whereas, The American Legion Is
an organization composed Of men and
women who gave their services to the
government of the United States or
one of the allied powers during the
great war; and
"Whereas, The American Legion Is
organized for the purpose of promoting
the interests of those who gave their
services to the country in that great
crisis and
"Whereas, The interests Of the great
majority of the members of the Amer
lean Legion are known to be identical
with the aims and aspirations Of or
ganized labor; therefore be 1t
"Resolved. BY the Kern County La
Dor Council, In regular session assem-
bled, this 23rd day OF December. 1918,
that we indorse the American Legion
and recommend that all members of
local unions affiliated with this body
eligible for membership in the Ameri'
can Legion take their rightful places
as members Of that organization"

Wilson got on the train at Gram

As the train started he left his seat
and made his way toward the water
cooler, but never reached there.
Peg Leg Stops Train.
A sudden jerk, IA bang and Charley
brought his wooden leg down on the
old floor of the older coach a bit hard
and the business end" of the stump
kept right on its way. cutting through
the ancient air hose, into the mechan-
ism of the airbrake coupling and, de,
spite the most strenuous efforts of Its
owner, stuck where 1t landed ',t,' ,t!,
The train stopped quicker than this
is told. h,."f:. ;.u,...
Conductor Farrell, carpenter emert1
tus of the branch road, secured his
tools and personal wrecking crew and
all hands set to work to remove the
potato masher" of Charley's, from Its
p~erilous position.
The old peg" is made Of hickory
and Charley is proud Of 1t, conse-,
quently he did not take kindly to d.
rector-ln General Farrelrs proposition,
that they could save time by saving
1t on"
Charley's yell at this proposition
brought Sheriff German, who was 'dOz-
Ing In a seat, and he backed the Gram.
plan man to the limit. "' . '+'
The peg must not be mutflated,
Hickory Is too scarce and too high

owner the satisfaction Of knowing
that he has an exceptionally attractive
home.
This house is nearly square, having
a frontage of SO feet 8 inches, and a
depth Of 81 feet, The hip roof, the d.
vided windows. the porch set into the
corner, and the pergOla at the end
over the drive to the garage all are
good features. The bungalow Is OF
frame construction set on a concrete
foundation below grade and a brick
foundation of about two and one-haif
feet above grade.
How the rooms are arranged m
their dimensions are shown by the floor
plan that accompanies the perspec-
tive. The entrance off the porch leads
into the living room, which extends
across the front of the house. This
room is II feet wide and 20 feet 9
inches long. An open fireplace at the
end of the room and the three extra
long windows VIII make this a CHEEKY
sitting room.
A. second entrance from the porch
leads to the dining room, which is con-
nected with the living ROOF by a
double cased opening. The dining
room also is, of good size-12 by 10
feet-and has three large windows.
Back of the dining o Is the kitch:
EN-, II feet 9. inches, by IL feet. and
off the kitchen are a pantry and a
breakfast nook. The latter is a con-
yenience that all housewives like, as
1t saves many steps and much early
morning work. The breakfast nook,
as here designed, is unusually good,
as 1t has windows OIL two sides, and
Is a cheerful place for the least at
tractive meal of the day.
A second door from the dining o
leads to a short hall, out of which
opens the bathroom and the two bed
rooms. The bathroom is so located
that 1t Is convenient to all the rooms
Of the bungalow. One of the bed
rooms Is a corner room, IL feet 9
