CARRIES MONEY IN BARROW
Employee Of Treasury Department
Has Carried Millions Of Dollars
During His Long Service.

In the redemption division Of the
United States treasury there is a
wheelbarrow which, though appar-
emily only an ordinary wheelbarrow
of the ordinary barnyard type, is in
reality probably the most remarkable
wheelbarrow In the world.
This harrow came to the depart
ment in the administration Ct An
drew Jackson and during the 81 years
which have elapsed since then has
transported many billions of dollars
worth of paper currency.
For the greater part of that 81 years
it has been chauffered by James d.
Rowe, eighty-year-old veteran en-
'ployee of the department, who during
So of his "a years of service there has
worked in the redemption division.
That mutilated or badly soiled piece
Of paper money which you exchange
at the bank for crisp new bill doubt
less is some day due for a joyride on
Mr.. Rowes famous barrow. Such cur
rency. recalled from circulation, Is as
sembled by national banks and sub
treasures throughout the country and
shipped to the redemption division Of
the treasury at Washington where 1t
Is stored In vaults in the basement Of
the building.
After being counted the usage
scared banknote is perforated with
two holes at each end to insure cancel
10 ha ic n tNUn a
halves going to different offices of the
department. At each count is made
as means of checking with the orig
inal figures of the treasury.
The bureau of engraving and print
ing utiliZes the discarded certificates
by reducing the halved bills to pulp,
which is sold to paper manufacturers
and used for making high grade writ
ing papers. Thus, in these days of
speedy evolution in domestic relations,
1t is not impossible that the $50 bill
with which you paid the installment
on that diamond ring in 1910 may re-
turn to you in 1921 in the form Of
nicely typewriter decree of divorce.
Mr.. Rowe will be eighty years old
October II, 1920 and has served under
q score of secretaries of the treasury.
In addition to his skill in manipulating
the remarkable wheelbarrOw, Mr..
Rowe in his younger days was re-
nowned as the champion rapld-fire sill
yer dollar counter of the treasury. On
one notable occasion, according to de-
partment traditions, he counted and
piled within a period Of "a hours 80
tons of silver dollars, consisting of g.
600 bags, each weighing 60 pounds.

Too Much THANK You"

We honestly believe that in the
matter of doing things for a mere
thank you" the weekly newspapers
of tEis country hold the records.
We say it with no desire to dis
criminate for we believe DeLand
people are no different from those
to be found elsewhere, but we feel
tLat on reflection they will agree it
is true, that for the. number of
favors rendered no other Institution
is as poorly paid as the Newspaper.
The church has bazaar, the school
has a concert, club brings a paid
speaker or musician to town and
does so to make money, and yet in
almost every instance the newspaper
is called on to announce the date,
be ost attraction, get out the crowd
ard then be satisfied with a free
ticket. And often, very often, the
promoters overlook even the free
ticket.
1t is hard for some people to I'M
derstand that about all a newspaper
has to sell is its space, or at least that
part of its space not devoted to ac-
tual news happenings. If it gives
away its space where is it going to
get money for more white paper,
more ink, more type-for type wears
out-and for rent and heat and
Eight and the scores of other things
that it is forced to pay out good
money for? They wouldn't go to
the merchant aid say We're going
to hold bazaar to make some
money; give us some of your goods
to sell that night" Yet they say to
the editor: We're going to hold
bazaar, give us your advertising
space so We can get crowd that will
spend its money" And yet there's
no difference.
The newspapers are here to boost
every worthy institution-and this
one expects to keep on doing it.
But we'd get down on our knees and
thank the good Lord right now if we
could make everyone see that it takes
money to run newspaper just the
same as it does anything else.-Vo-
lusia County Record.

The Form of Ballot

The GAINESVILLE Sun in speaking of
the form of ballot said: "All old time
Floridians will remember why we
adopted the present general election
law in Florida. At one time there
was a necessity for it. That time has
gone and God grant it may never re-
turn"
1t would almost appear as if the
purpose of the election law was to de-
stroy, or at least hamper, party gov
eminent. At any rate if Florida
wanted to do away with parties no
change in the present form of the
ballot would be necessary. The
Banner hopes that the coming legis-
lature will change the form to one in
which party tickets will be arranged
in parallel columns, with the party
designation at the top of each, so
that one mark will vote a straight
ticket. The ballot should be made
as easy as possible for the elector to
vote. Nothing is to be gained by
making it difficult as any one who
will stand by an election board and
hear hundred ballots called out to
the tellers will know Dade City
Banner.

VIKING SHIP TOMB OF QUEEN
Vessel of Great Historic Interest on
Exhibition in Museum at Chris
tiana, Norway.

The discovery Of a new Norwegian
Viking ship south Of Aalesund, Nor
way, disclosing many things concern
ing ancient civilization and northern
antiquities, recalls to a reader of the
New York Times the finding of the
"Oseberg ship" discovered at Ose-
berg, near Tonsberg. Norway, in 1903.
This ship is the finest and best-pre-
served Of the Viking ships, and is on
display at the University of Chris
tiana. 1t is more than 100 feet long
and 1914 feet wide. It-dates from the
early part of the ninth century. The
prov and stern are beautifully carved,
and the vessel contains vastness of
priceless furniture and other antilui-
ties, loom with tapestry of small
pictures, sledges with luxurious orna-
ments, implements of various kinds
and a carriage which is a work of art.
But most interesting of all, the
Oseberg ship has served the strange
purpose of a sarcOphagus for Vik-
ing queen, who lived. and died 200
years before William the Norman con-
quered England. Skeletons of two
women were found in the ship, and
scientific investigation points TO the
probability that the remains belong
to queen and her maid entombed
there.

Growers Win Fight.

A meeting largely attended by lead
ing fruit growers and representatives
of railroads handbag Florida fruits,
was held in Orlapdo yesterday WED
nesday) the chief object of the meet
ing being to arrive at a decision about
the bulge pack" The railroad rep
resentatives urged that the bulge
pack" be abandoned, alleging that it
resulted in much damage; but upon
being cross-examined, admitted that
most of the damage arose flom rough
handling by their employees. This
fact being proven, the transportation
men withdrew their opposition to the
bulge pack" thus awarding victory
to the growers and shippers.
