 The world is no more surprised at the successful undertakings of wom- en. From what was once construed as their only purpose in life--that of "a clinsing vine'-they have grown to be a strong bean stalk. soaring above the petty wants and worries of diversity into an industrial world using their energies and talents to- ward the material demands of the times.
 No longer she sits with tear dimmed eyes and wonders what can I do? But every day we hear of some new enterprise. the industry of women.
 This industry is not always call from home. The needle always seemed drudge-one reason we may presume is because there seemed poor pay for tedious hours.
 After We have heard the story of Mrs. Laura Mays of Marietta, Ga, who has succeeded so splenddly in destroying the pathos of the song of the shirt and put tha financial rythm to the stitch until night" we begin to realize the asset we have in our own fingers with application happily applied.
 Mrs Mays Is the daughter of the late Rev Sam Jones, whose work still lives in the christian world. He made money in his work and gave it away more freely than he made it and the members Of hls family have Inherited much of his originality and are applying it to practical duties.

SOVIET RUSS|A|S VERY FRIENDLY
 WITH NEAR EAST
Lenlne Exchanges Presents With the Rulers of Turkey and Persia, as Did the
 Ancient Rulers
By Associated Press

Riga, Latvia, July iS-Recent ar rivals from Moscow declare that the world little realizes how closely Soviet Russia is pus1ihg its friend ship with the Near East
 In Moscow now the Turkish lega- tion occupies one of the most sump- tuous Of the old palaces and the per- sonnel. garbed in faultless European clothes present strange contras st to the poorly garbed Muscovites. The Afghans and other Near Eastern delegations who also occupy luxurious quarters give elaborate banquets and otherwise carry on with all the pomp of the old Eastern courts.
 Members of Lenlne's government are frequently guests at these affairs and entertain the legation person. nels equally lavishly in return.
 Besides this. Lenlne has 50 acco- modated himself 10 the psychology of the East that he now exchanges presents with the rulers of Turkey Persia. etc. as did the rulers of an cient days.
 A Moscow dispatch today reads like a paragraph from what might have been an ancient tablet of hier- oglyphics describing the visit of a Fabylonian envoy to King Cyrus of Persia. It says; The representative of the Soviet government has made his first official visit to the Shah of Persia. presenting to the Shab on a golden salver an album with photo graphs of Soviet leaders of the whole of Russia as personal present to the Shah from Lenine."
 A man who recently arrived from Moscow said Few persons realize what a close connection now exists between Russia and it's old enemy, Turkey. and for that matter all of the Near East Lenine Is accomplishing here what the old Russian govern ment could not do by playing up to Eastern Apsychology.
 The sS-called Bolshevlsm in these Eastern countries is nothing at all like the Bolshevism of Moscow but in each case the Russian agitators have distinct brand of propa ganda de- signed to dovetail with ancient cus- toms of the country in question. For instance, in regions where the trade in bazaars Is a century old custom no agitation against free trade has been made"

BULLDOGS AND NEGRO IN

 The woman is said to have alarme l the neighborhood with her screams, as she scratched and bit at the of ficers, being aided In her resistance by a couple of vicious bulldogs, one of them grabbing hold of the calf of a deputy's leg. When the woman was finally subdued without being hurt, the raiders were rewarded with one quart of whisky and she was carried to the office of Justice Ray mond Clay, where a fine of $250 and 30-day sentence in jail was im- posed, the charge being having the whisky in possession.

START IN SOUTH SEA ISLAND

AHtl IN SOO S1kA 1ShhND From Wild Men of the New He brides. by Martin Johnson. in Asia Magazine.
 It is customary to waste a lot of pity on the trader and the planter in remote places, lonely outpost of civ ilzation. but, from my observation. they do not need pity. The man who stays in the islands is fitted for the life there; If he isn't, he doesn't stay and, if he does stay he can retire. after fifteen or twenty years, with a tidy fortune.
 Of course tho road to fortune Is a long and hard one. The average plan- ter starts out with little capital. say five hundred dollars. He purchase es plot of land. The price he pays depends upon the locality in which he buys. In regions where the natives are still fairly unsophisticated, he may get his land for almost nothing. Even where the natives are most as- ute. he can buy square mile for what what he would pay an acre back home. His next step is to get his land cleared. To that end, he buys a, whale boat and goes out to recruit natives to act as laborers. He needs five or six blacks. They will build his house ana Cledr ms lan0 ana pldNt ms coconuts. Since it takes seven years for the coconuts to mature, sweet po- tatoes and cotton must be planted be- tween the rows of trees. The sweet potatoes. with 8 little rice, will fur nish all the food required by the blacks, The cotton, If the planter is diligent and lucky will pay current expenses until the coconuts begin bearing.
 Though his small capital of five hundred dollars may be eaten up early in the game. the settler need not despair. The big trading compan- ies that do business in the island will see him through if he shows any sign of being made of the right stuff. They will give him credit for food and supplies and they will pro- vide. him with knives, calico and to- bacco. which he can barter with the blacks for sandal-wood and copra that will help balanse his account with the companies. And after the first trying seven years. his troubles are about over, if he san get labor enough to keep his plantation going.

BARACA CLASS ENJOY
 A BIG DAYS OUTING

Talladega, July 16.-(Special.)- )-A party of 100 men, members of the Baraca classes of the First Baptist First Presbyterian, First Methods; and Trinity Sunday schools, motore1 to Griffith's fish traps on Coosa river on Thursday afternoon and enjoyed a delightful fish fry.
 The occasion was a get-toge meeting of all the classes, following out an idea suggested by R. H. Me Cain some time ago of having the different classes visit each other on Sundays at the lesson hour. There was a genuine feeling of fellowship prevailing, and many of those present stated that it was one of the best gatherings of the kind they had ever attended.
 Brief addresses were made by Judge ]. w. Vandiver. J. S. Clancy, J. H. Ivey, Rev. MT. Vann and J. A. Baxley. It is expected that this work of cooperation among the classes will be continued until a federation of all the mems classes in the city is formed.

 Whether or not you are telling the | truth can now be determined by 1n- strumental means. This is one of | the latest developments of modern
 science. MT. William Moulton Mars ton of Boston, has perfected one de- | vice, and has tested it out on num- Der of individuals, and pr. William IT. Bates of New York, has discov- cred different test.
 MT. Marston is lawyer, and the primary object. of his invention is to detect, purely By Instrumental means.
 and effectively. whether a persons is telling the truth when answering questions under cross-examination. The msthod, devised by MT. Mars | ton is, the "systolic blood pressure test" which is claimed to yield cor
 rect results in practically 100 per cent of the cases tried. A sphyg- momanometer> Gan instrument for registering the blood pressure) is at tached to the upper arm Of the sub 7 ject and the questions are asked. as before. If the subject tells the truth, no increase in the blood pressure is noted. If. on the contrary, the sub~ JeCI IS ltliiDS ldiScliOO~ss hhS PASSN pressure increases, and this is shown on the proper recording instrument.
 pr. Bates is an eve specialist of more than 30 years standing. He has been enabled to tell whether a person is telling the truth by examining the interior of the eye at the moment the question is being answered.
 Dr. Bates has discovered that whenever the subject strains the eyes Casually in an effort to see) the eyeball is squeezed out of shape: that Is, 1t becomes elongated in either a front-and- back direction, or in an up-and- down direction. Any interior tension will cause this strain-such as an emotional disturbance-and not only an effort to see.
 Now, if a beam of light be thrown into the eye and moved from side to side, it will be seen (by means of the .'retinoscope." an instrumen ent with which to examine the interior of the eye) that shadow moves across the retina of the eye if 1t Is in any way strained. If the eye Is short-t sighted, the shadow will move in a direction opposite to the movement of the light-beam. If the eye is long sighted 1t will move in the same direction. If the eyesight Is not strained at the time. no shadow at all will be noticed.
 When the subject is being asked questions. therefore, beam of light is thrown into the eye. and tAe shadow traced. If the subject is not telling the truth. a slight internal strain will be produced, and a shadow will at once be seen.
