An elderly lady of very prim
and severe aspect was seated
next to a young couple who were
discussing the merits of their
motor cars.
What color is your body?'
asked the young man of the girl
at his side. meaning of course
the body of her motor,
"0h. mine is pink. What is
yours?"
Mine is brown with wide yell
low stripes.
This was too much for the old
lady. Rising from the table she
exclaimed:

asking each other the color of
their bodies at a dinner party it

Cheap Home Gamers.

Expensive equipment is un-
necessary fos canning, Agricul-
tural specialists say. A wash
boiler, lard can. or any container
with a tightly fitting cover large
enongh to hold a number of pack
ed jars. and a few other simple
utensils generally found in the
ordinary kitchen, will do the
work. When such equipment is
used. a false bottom must be
placed in the boiler or other con-
tainer to prevent the jars from
coming in contact with the metal
A rack made of strips of wood is
probably best for the purpose.
The processing or boiling of the
jars in the container may be
done on the kitchen stove or on
a furnace built out of doors.
Several types of Gamers, by
which the work can be done
more easily than with home
made outfit, are on the market.
The hot-water bath Gamer is
the least expensive commercial
type. There are two kinds, one.
which may be placed on tn e
kitchen stove, and another which
has a frebox and pipe attached
for use out of doors. Each has a
oterilizing vat, lifting trays,
tongs for handling hot jars, false
bottoms, and tools necessary ir
sealing tin cans. Tin cans OF
glass jars may be used with any
outfit.
There are also steam pressure
outfits for home use. They de.
velop a higher temperature than
the water-bath Gamers mention.
ed. Steam-pressure outfits are
made to carry from 6 to &c
pounds of steam pressure and
are regulated easily.

Granville Marine Atterds U.
nique School al Sea.

When the Marines embarked
on the U. S. S. Henderson al
Philadelphia to be in readiness
for any contingency that may
develop out of the turbulent sit.
uatlon in Mexico following the
overthrow of Carranza, Frank
N. Spurlock, formerly of Gran
vile, this county, was one of the
first up the gang plank. The
Granville boy was enrolled for a
course in automobile mechanics
at the Marine Corps Institute at
Quantico, Va. but volunteered
for the emergency.
More than $50 students were
granted the same privilege by
General John A. Lejeune, the
post commander. They packed
up their text books in their ex-
peditionary packs, shouldered
their rifles and followed the
colors of the 18th Regiment.
Instructors were detached from
the Institute and classes were
reorganized at sea.
Out of the wide range of
eighty-fve courses selected for
the Marine Corps Institute by
the International Correspondence
a total of thirty subjects
were taught aboard the vessel.
Up to date reports from Pensa-
csla, Fla, where the regiment is
now concentrated, show that not
a Marine has played hockey from
this unique school. Enrollments
are being increased, and the ex-
animation papers, as fast as re-
ceived at Quantico, are marked,
corrected and returned to Pen
sacola.

Avoid Such Calamities as This

A woman 1--WE wont mention
her name) who was too economi
cal to subscribe for her home
paper sent her little son to bor'
row the copy taken by her neigh.
Dor. In his haste the boy ran
over tour dollar stand of bees
and in ten minutes looked like a
warty summer squash. His cries
reached his father, who ran to
his assistance, and failing to
notice a barbed wire fence, ran
into it, breaking it down. cutting
a handful of flesh from his ana
tony and running a five dollar
pair of pants. The old cow took
advantage of the gap in the
fence and got into the cornfeld
and Killed herself eating corn.
Hearing the racket the mother
ran, upset a four gallon churn of
rich milk into a basket of kittens
drowning the whole litter. In
her hurry she dropped and broke
past all hope of mending, twen-
ty-fve dollar set of false teeth.
The baby left alone, crawled
through the spilled cream and in
to the parlor, running a twenty
dollar carpet. During the excite
ment the Oldest daughter ran
away with the hired man, the
dog broke up eleven setting hens
and the calves got out and chew
ed the tails off of four fine shirts.
And all to save $1.0O.
Moral: Subscribe for the SEN
tinel at once and protect your
self from such calamities.

Survey Shows Church Decline

Startling examples of tha de,
cline of churches in the ruraI
districts of Tennessee have been
brought out by the survey made
by DR.. T. F. Dixon. church re-
lations specialist. The survey in
I3 counties has been completed
and reports from these counties
show that ne-third of the
churches are losing ground, one
third doing nothing and one
third are gaining. Inactive men,
bership in the various rural
churches runs from as low as 6
per cent to as high as 70 per
cent. Eight communities in
these counties having a popula-
ton of A. 445, have no churches
of any kind. In most Of the
counties ohe-fourth to one-half
of the territory of the county is
outside of the activities of any
church Reports from four other
counties have been completed
but not tabulated. however, DR..
Dixon states that conditions in
these counties are about the
same as in those mentioned a.
bove. These are all East Ten

that about the same situation ex-
lists thruout the state and it in
