Value OF Snakes
Most people have a decided sh-:RS.
ing from snakes, which is not to be
wondered at in tropical countries,
where their bite is venomous and often
fatal. But the grass snake ought not
to be COMPOUNDED with the rattlers,
cobras or pythons. 1t Is as harmless
to humanity as frog and good deal
more useful. No greater enemy to
bugs is In existence. And slugs are
among the most hurtful of garden and
field pests. They keep down the num-
bers also of such other pests as mice.
shrews and other small rodents. But
as slug destroyers they deserve to be
cherished rather than massacred at
sight, which is their usual fate

HARDING TO THE FARMERS.

Senator Hardlng's speech to the
farmers of the country, delivered at
the Minnesota State Fair, is commend
able not only for the subject matter
and the constructive craftsmanship
which It contains, but for the calm and
dignified tone which prevails through
out the entire address. Nothing could
more thoroughly impress intelligent
people with the difference in the sena-
tor and his opponent and their qualifi-
cations for the presidency than Senator
Harding's comprehensive discussion Of
the agricultural problems Of the ma
ton and the solution which must be
applied TO them and the political ha-
rangue delivered at the same place by
Governor Cox.-Sioux City Qa.) Jour
nal.

So declares "Grandpa" Albert vogel,
1903 years young, of Jeanette, Pa, who

"PARTY FACES pIsAsTER"-eoRE

Senator Thomas Gore, Democrat, of
Oklahoma, who was defeated for re-
nomination through the influence of
the White House because of his oppo-
sitien to the League Of Nations, plain
ly indicates that he proposes to con-
tinue his fght upon the league. The
blind senator says:
"The paramount issue is to avert
disaster; nobody favors the league
that understands 1t.
"The women Of Maine have read It.
1t is no wonder about the women. It
is no marvel about the mothers. They
are not willing to mortgage the pound
of flesh nearest their hearts.
"They are not willing to sign this
bloody bond which is a first lien upsp
the life Of every boy beneath the stars
and stripes.
HE was blind indeed who had not
already seen the black shadow of the
Maine elections visioned upon the heri-
zon."

JAMES MCLAUGHLIN
FLEES FROM Hl02A'ilEF;
East Liberty Street Boy Is
STRANGELY Missing.

Where is James Mclaughlin?
That is what his mother. Mrs. Mary
Mclaughlin, of 2f9 East Liberty
street, would like to KNOW. In com
pany with a friend the boy disap-
peared from home on Thursday of
last week, and since then no trace
of him has been found, and all eff
forts to locate him have proved un-
availing.
The boy, it was stated today. had
frequently talked about leaving
home, saying he was tired of Mar
tinsburg and was going to seek his
fortune elsewhere. He talked of go
ing to Baltomore. and if that city
did not suit him he would travel
until he found suitable place.
Yesterday evening Mrs. McLaugh-
lin took the matter up with the Bal
timore authorities, but so far has not
received any word that would lead
to his whereabouts. The mother be-
lieyes the boy is in Baltimore. but
is keeping under cover, and will not
report unil he has received employ
ment, or after he has become tired
lof travelling will return home.

BROWNELL OPENS
 ASALES CONTEST
"Pep" and Speed Put Into Sell
 ing Forces By a Novel Means

Adding speed and pep to the sales or- ganization is the principal idea in the minds of Blaine Brownell and Ted Rrownell of the Brownell Auto com pany these days. Brownell handles the Dodge Brothers motor cars and while the automobile business all over the country has siumped considerably. the Brownelis believe that a firms busi ness depends entirely upon the efforts ut behind it.
 The BrowneIl Auto company Is con- vinced of the fact that they business still is there--that 1t is just a queS- ton of company going out and work ing all the harder to get it. There fore. the Brownen Auto company has added eight sales1nen to their sales or- ganization and have started contest which means great deal in addei commissions and bonuses for the man who wins it.
 Tn the lobby of the Brownell Auto company, Twenty first street and Ave- rue D, at the present time is a huge poster which pictures the rough noun tain path that leads to success. At the very peak of the mountain is a bag of gold, which represents the prize that tho winning salesman will get On the left hand side of the poster is chart with lanes representing each salesman Each mans record is painted in from day to day in units. One unit repre- sents a touring car or roadster, closed car calls for two units and used car gets the salesman a half unit.
 The salesman who is leading the pack at the end of the week is entitled 10, wear the Honor Saiesman's Badge. which is solid gold pin. He wears 1t for one week or until he is overtaken by another salesman. During the time that he wears this badge the Honor Salesman" gets an added bonus for every unit that he adds to his recorf.
 There are many attractive features of this contest for the salesmen. There is a purse, the literal bag of gold, W nich goes to the salesman selling the most units during the contest. The competition, while it has Just started. is getting rather keen and promises some interesting sidelights before 1t comes to an end on December 24. By ending the contest at that time the winning salesman gets very neat Christmas package in the first prize.
