AUTOS SHIPPED

Last Friday a number of new, real

Gates the railways are loosening up
rs the dealers say, and the movement
of automobiles by train is really be
ing renewed.
Manufacturers recognize the fact
that they have been losing a great
deal of their business through the
impossibility of getting cut their cars
after they have been mode, and then
he strikes came on, and many We're
hampered again. Now, however, the
situation is clearing. The working
conditions are improving as we'll az
those of the railroads, and it is be
LEGGED that the season, which has been
greatly injured by the failure to get
cars out, will finish up with a hur-
rah. There are many orders in by
Richmond companies, and it is ex-
pected that ct any time there will be
a number of cars stop here and a
number of hearts made glad by the
tidings that their long awaited car is

Former Richmond Girl Sends
Message To Friends Back
Home Thru Register

Many friends "at home" here will
be greatly interested in the follow
ing letter from Mrs. J. w. Wither
spoon, who was Miss Josephine Bar
low:
Hollywood, Cal, June %, 1920.
To the Daily Register and All
Richmond: I have thought for some
time that l would write a letter to
each of my old friends back in Ken
lucky, but I can't find time to write
separate letters, so l am using this
means of reaching many at time.
I have not heard from your city
since we left in January and certain
ly would be glad to have a line from
any one who has time to write.
This is, indeed, wonderful coun-
try and you would have been con-
WINGED of the fact had you had the
experience we did last evening and
today.
Mother and 1 were in the kitchen
getting supper, Jack in the living
room reading and Mrs. Gabanay, who
is with us from your city, was in her
room writing the folks back home,
when I heard my back door shaking
and, thinking it some of the neigh
bors, l started to answer it
After having taken one step L real
lied that something was wrong, the
house was rocking like a boat, and
could hardly stand. Oh, yes, we had
| heard about them, and now we knew
about them. An earthquake is nc
funny thing, I can tell you, and il
| makes one realize how very insignif-
can't we mortals are when we are
moved about like a ship at sea, anc
to think we have power by which we
could stop it.
l had hardly time to realize what
had happened before we had gone to
the front yard, and there found the
neighbors all going from one to the
other telling of their experiences
some frightened, and other laughing
at them.
l calculated it was not the time OF
place to laugh, although 1 must say
| was not frightened, but it does
give one a sensation they won't for
get.

ing paper to see what damage was

done.
l will not take time to go into de-
tails as to the damage done, but l
am sending sheet of the Los Angeles
Times to Mr.. Alex King, and he will
place it in his jewelry store window,
and anyone who cares to see some of
the buildings as they looked in Ingle-
wood, a place only a little way from
Hollywood, where we live, can see
them by going to his place of busi-
ness.
Today while at lunch we were NOV
ed again, but sat still this time to see
how it really acted.
Well, guess it is like the people
say, '1t is a thing you have to get
used to-" but l am rather inclined to
think it takes some time to get to the
point where you can say as some of
the neighbors said yesterday, "Gee
like it." You know, honestly, l do
not believe he was telling the truth
But he is fine neighbor all right
and so are all the folks we have met
The climate is ideal and the salt
| water bathing grand. We have warm
not hot, mornings and cool afternons
and evenings, so one can sleep well.
Oh, l could tell you lot about the
| trips we have been on, but am afraid
the Daily Register will not find room
for it ALL as l notice it is always well
| filled, so any who write me will glad
ly be given an answer, giving the
story in detail. Our address is 800
Hudson avenue, Hollywood, Cal.
Hoping all the folks back home are
well and enjoying life as we are anC
| that we shall hear from some or many
of them, l shall leave you until {
later date, and beg not to be forgot

a disposition to work shorter hours
and do less work in a specified time
according to the report.
Investigations made on various
farm conditions disclose the fact
that farm labor by the month has in
creased so per cent over that of 1914.
This is by no means unreasonable
according to Mr.. Logan, it is on a par
with the increase in compensation of
men in industrial lines.
While farm wages are exceeding
ly high, he explains, lit must not
be forgotten that the farm hand suf-
fers from lack of work in off-season.
inquiry shows that men hired by the
month are employed about nine
months a year. harvest hands, 33
days. and men employed in other farm
labor. only 176 days. "Thus the
yearly income of farm hand by the
month with board, is 1888, and $3.50
without board; for the harvest hand,
s113.S5 with board and $14355 with
out board. Other farm work by the
day nets $37S.4O with board a year
and $4S4 without board"

FARMERS WILL REPRESS
l. w. VS., MAYES SAYS

while Missouri has been compara-
lively free from workings of the I. W.
w. and other bolshevist tendencies,
the farmers feel strongly that these
propensities should be repressed and
discouraged with an iron hand" says
Jewell Mayes, secretary Of the State
Board of Agriculture, who was in
Columbia recently, in charge of the
Farmers Week night programs.
Like John Smith of the early CO.
lonial days, Mr.. Mayes said, "the
farmers firmly believe that those who
would eat must work. Missouri farm
ers are thinking seriously of farm or
ganizations and stabilizing of prices.
with a possible reduction in acreage
and production, which they believe
would solve the problem.
''They resent the attitude of or
ganized labor and organized capital.
to exact the last penny for their eff
forts in producing necessary goods
They suggest the possibility of farm
ers striking for six hours a day with
a five day week, and the consequence
of lessened production"
Not a county in Missouri but has
an actual shortage of farm labor, is
the conclusion drawn from inter-
views with thousand farmers in
all sections of the state by Mr.. Mayes,
and z. A. Logan of the U. S. Bureau
of Crop Estimates. Due to this sit
uation farmers interviewed show

Account of the Funeral.
Following is a partial account of
the burial:
WASHINGTON ENTOMBED
George Town, Dec. 20.
On Wednesday last, the mortal part
of WASHINGTON the Great-the Fa-
ther Of his Country, the Friend of
man. was consigned to the tomb with
solemn honors and funeral pomp.
"A multitude of persons assembled
from many miles around at Mount
Vernon. the choice abode and last res
idence of the illustriOus chief. There
were the grOves-the spacious ave-
nues-the beautiful and sublime
fences, the noble mansion, but, alas,
the august inhabitant was now no
more. The great soul was gone. His
mortal part was there indeed; but ah!
how affecting! how awful the spec
tacle of such worth and greatness.
thus to mortal eyes fallen!-Yes!
fallen! fallen!
I'm the long and lofty Portico,
where oft the hero walked in all his
glory, now lay the shrouded corpse.
The countenance still composed and
serene, seemed to depress the dignity
of the spirit, which lately dwelt in
that lifeless form. There those who
paid the last sad honors to the bene-
factor of his country, took an impress
sive-a farewell view.
"On the ornament at the head of
the coffin was inscribed SURGE AID
the middle of the
coffin, GLORIA DEO-and on a silver
plate,
GENERAL
GEORGE WASHINGTON
Departed this life, on the 14th De-
cember 1899, Act. 6S."
