lot Of money In the contracting business,
received a letter last Thursday calling on
him to give ST. 900 to the writer or suffer

the taking OF human life was as nothing.
Mr.. Pollara was entoined to proceed to
Rockaway Beach on the night of January
7, taking the"9 20'' train from Flatbush
avenue. He was to be sure to have
$5, 900 in cash In his hand. At the
Rockaway Beach station he would be
met by ''some one you know and then
follow his direction on a paper that he

Mr.. Pollara thought it all over and
decided to call in the cops. The letter
looked a bit fishy to him. He admitted
there were certain things about the
epistle that made him decide to take the
chance the letter forbode. He was to
come alone and "try no funny business
The signature at the close of the letter
consisted OF the outline of a hand
blocked in with blue ink, and sketches
of skulls and crossbones, various sorts
of daggers and knives, a diagram that
might be either sweet potato or a

Leather Should Decline

Some tell us, please. why the
price of leather has not declined
commensurately with the price of
hides? The story is told of farmer
who brought a calf's hide to town
and induced the local butcher to
pay him so cents for it. Needing a
hamestring a merchant In the same
town charged him go cents for it.
Shoes are now but little lower than
they were during the war, when
supply. as we were informed, was
much less than demand. What is
true of shose is the situation with
respect to many manufactured ar
ticles. The price we must pay is
outrageous compared to the market
value of the raw material from
which they are made. Like the
poor, the profiteer is with US al
ways.-Magnolia Gazette.

We are all of us little prone to
speak at times in disparaging terms
of our home minister's effort, when
we hear a sermon that does not
bristle with ideas and shine with
eloquence. Unjuetly we compare
him with some lecturer or noted di-
vine we may have heard once. We
give great praise to the lecturer or
preacher whom we hear once in a
year and who, perhaps, spent years
in preparing the lecture he delivers.
We do not stop to consider that
some preachers speak to the con-
gregation fifty or a hundred times
in the same year. 1t is no small
task to prepare one good sermon.
If you don't believe it, try it. If
you do, we are confident you will
see your minister in new light,

ton of his work.-Exchange.

Good Citizens and
Officers Must Wake Up

The Weekly, as we'll as every
good citizens, heartily endorses the
following which appeared in the
Grenada Sentinel of last week:
The apprehension of violators
of the liquor laws. and the finding
of so many stills throughout the
state. demands that the citizens
wake up to what the evil portends
and that the officers. courts and
iuries should use every agency of
the law to put stop to thing
that tends to undermine society and
that leads to robbery, mnrder and
every other crime. Experience has
shown that man can not tcy with
the sale of whisky and preserve his
moral integrity-in the days of
long ago some few did it, but con-
ditions are very different today.
In the first place it is up to the
officers and the courts. There can
not be any halfway ground of law
enforcement. That day is past
The conscience of the best citizen
ship of America demands law-en-
forcement. 1t hurts any commu-
nifty to wink at violations. The
fact is no state can prosper which
permits fiagrant law-breaking. 1t
is the duty of each and every citi-
zen to give notice that from and
after this date, that the man who
is toying with whisky. can not ex-
pect any sympathy or comfort from
him. If the officers throughout the
state will do their duty and CO.
operate as they should with the
Federal officials, the days of the
whisky maker are numbered"

/ hink of the Boil Weevil

The planters and farmers of the
South should not forget next spring
that the short acreage and heavy
boil weevil infestation is RESPONSE
ble for the advance in the price OF
cotton this fall. If the price is
maintained next year there is just
one way to maintain it-by pro-
ducing only enough to meet an ac-
tive demand. If the acreage to
corn and other food and feed pro-
ducts is made sufficient to insure
the needs of the farms plantations,
and possibly some for sale, then
the acreage to cotton will not be
large enough to produce any great
surplus of cotton, with a good de-
mand and good prices certain
