GIANT POPLAR YIELDS
1000 FEET OF LUMBER

WHITESBURG. KY, June "a
The Staying of a yellow poplar tree
of giant size removed a famous land
mark in the hills Of the Cumberland
mountains. A large lumber con-
Germ here not long ago cut this
forest monarch and about 1000 was
realized from the manufactured
product.
The tree was sawed into nearly
1000 feet of first-class lumber, with
several hundred feet of second class
stuff thrown in. Not for half a
century had such a tree been mar
keted from Eastern Kentucky.

"WOMEN ALWAYS

Speaker Points Out Need of
Better ForewOmen and
Training.

TOPEKA. Kans. June 23.-The

announcement to workers and con-
fusion TO forewoman.
Not long ago I visited a factory
where the payroll showed a full
weeks wage for less than % per-
cent OF the girls. Asked the reason.
the foreman said, oh. the girls are
always changing jobs. they are never
satisfied; and with that much the
subject was dismissed. There must
be an answer.
Labor turnover, absentism and
hardness are some of the reasons for
the greatest loss in industry. In the
first place the forewoman is often
not instructed IN her own job and
therefore does not understand the
great necessity for studying all Jobs
carefully for making proper selec-
ton of workers for the jobs"

Those who carefully read history
and observe the passing of world
events are driven to the conclusion
that frequently our earth passes
through zones of mysterious infiuen-
ces that very decidedly agitate, in
feet, inspire and impel both it's ele-
ments and it's inhabitants to abnor-
NAL manifestations of unrest and
upheaval. Throughout the ages
astrologers have observed the inti-
mate relationship of such depar-
lures to the CONGREGATIONS of the
planetary bodies.
Commencing with and continu-
ing ever since the fall of 1918
Uranus and Saturn have been tran
sitting in close opposition to each
other, having already passed the ex-
act opposition three times, each oc-
casion being attended with and fol-
lowed by a world wide epidemic Of
human brain-storms manifesting in
various phases of excitement, tu-
multi, rebellion. protest. strikes, race
riots and other symptoms of elemen-
tai hysteria and turbulence.
Coincidentally there has also been
a very pronounced renewal of seis-
mic and magnetic activity and dis
asters upon the high seas.
From February to July of this
year Saturn and Uranus will be In
unusually close and exceptionally
long continued opposition to each
other, due to the fact that they
both happen to reach their respec-
tive turning points, at which they
appear to stop and reverse their d.

sequence of which they will both re-

viewed from our earth-for a very
long time; with the earth continu-
ously upon the exact line over which
their Numerically contrasted influ-
ences will be meeting in a head-on
collision.
Coincident with this and continu-

be in quite as close and unusually

each other, while Mars, near to his
perigree or nearest point of ap-
proach to the earth, will also reach
his stationary position at a point
in exact square aspect to Jupiter
and Neptune.
And through most of March and
April the astral tremolo, Mercury,
will be zigzagging back and forth
over the equator in the most effec-

earth's magnetic equilibrium.
