BRUNSWICK ON IT'S
GOOD BEHAVIOR

Brunswick has been on ifs very best
behavior for the past several days, the
police department having enjoyed
somewhat of Il vacation" so far as The
necessity for arrests IL concerned The
epidemic Of hurglariss which kept the
department busy Tor many months
seems to have been brought TO an
end, temporarily st least. Since the
attempted burglary of the Lynn Gould
Hardware Co.. several weeks ago. and
the subsequent arrest of several OF the
participants, no burglariea have been
rtDCrted. And the absence OF the usual
number of 'drunks" from the streets
seems to indicate that the supply of
Illicit shine is not quite 50 plentiful
as was the case few months ago.

VOTE IN GLYNN WAG ABOUT AS
WAS GENERALLY ANTICIPATED


The Democratic presidential elect
ors in this county all received APO
votes and The constitutional amend
nents got total OF ga. making them
safe, AS far as Glynn is concerned.
For United States senator Thomas
Fl. Watson receiyed 800 votes while T.
w. Hardwick, 'totaled 404. All the
candidats for state house offices ran
$50, some few receiving one or two
more than this number and others
less. s
Congressman Lanfford polled AL,
Senator Akin 433 anu representative
Mann 42S. The, county officers got
an average of 480, except three or
four whose names were not placed
on the Republican tickets and these
received 454..
One surprising feature about the
election in Glynn is the few Republic
can votes polled. The total did not
reach near what it was expected and
from the tickets iii was seen that the
colored vote was only 70 and the white
C. o. p. less than 30.

an allowance of SIS a month for his
support.
Mrs. Ethel L. Davis, who sued
Vernon w. Davis and charged him

SILK WORM PET
HOBBY BOOSTED
Spinning Insect of Orient
Offers New Fad, Says
Expert Here.

Found.-for the Blase, a new pet
the silk worm.
So says T. A. Keleher, expert seri-
culturist of the Department of
Agriculture.
The silk worm is one of the most
interesting speciments of animal
life, he says. Although the Depart
ment of Agriculture has declared
that it cannot be raised profitably
in the United States it's place as a
pet offers a future.
The worm whose existence dates
from prehistoric China, prefers null
berry leaves as a diet. When driven
to It, lettuce is not disdained.
1t is hatched from an egg no
larger than turnip seed. The first
period of its life is one of continual
eating. During this period it
changes its skin three or four times,
just like a snake.
Then begins the operation of
spinning. The worm takes three
days to surround itself with a silken
home or cocoon. Spinning would
be dizzy process to most human
beings at the rate of sixty-five rev.
olutions of ones head a minute.
But the silk worm is immune from
vertigo.
The life of a moth lasts about
twelve days, during which time il
lays about 400 eggs.

Has Novel Idea
ToDefeat H. G. L.
In Handkerchiefs

J. L. Martin, secretary to Engi-
neer COmmissioper Charles W. Kutz,
has discovered a novel way to de-
feat the high cost of handkerchiefs.
Martin usually receives plans for
improvements in the engineer sys-
tenn. when the ideas are rejected
by Col. KutZ- The plans are drawn
on tracing cloth. and after being
found useless. apparently are des-
tined for the waste basket.
But the resourceful Martin takes
the cloth home, and by boiling re-
moves the glossy surface. leaving
a square of fine linen. Hemming
an edge is all that is required to
complete the metamorphosis of the
tracing cloth into a handkerchief
Of good quality.
