OLDEST "GIRL," 1" no, HAS HER
 HAIR ROBBED

Newark, N. J., Dec. 7-The oldest inmate in the Daughters of Israel H1me for the Aged, 110 years old is about to have her hair bobbed, Hike the other girls,' as she expressed it. The management of the home with held her name, fearing lest it's publi- cation might offend wealthy rela- tiveS.
 'I am only 11o," she said, "and expect to break the record of my grandmother, who lived to be 125."
 She is known among the other in mates as "the telephone" because of her facility in gossip. and is also called the 'head of the Democratic party" because of her persistent dis cussion of politics. She ascribed her longevity to diet largely, eating of meat and very little bread.
 Another inmate of the home is Mrs. Rivlza Zippe, 1O5 years old. She prinps constantly, and is said to be very Jealous of the attentions paid by the old men in the institution to the other girls" She says that the secret of her old age and beauty is fresh air, and she. sits out in all weather. Her favorite diversion is playing with dolls.
 A benefit entertainment Is to be given for these two old ladies in which all of the 40 or 50 inmates of the home are preparing to particf- pate.

MORE THAN NINETEEN MILLION HEROES
 IN COUNTRY

Chicago, Dec. 7-Data compiled by the Horse Association of America in- dfcates that there are more than 19,- 00O,000 horses and mules in the Unit ed States, seventeen millions of which are on farms and more than 2,000,-- 900 in crtics according to the annual tary of the Association made here before the annual meeting of the as- sociatfon recently.
 In speaking of the value of horses and mules as compared with automo- bile trucks, MT. Dinsmore said:
 ''As a result of studies, other sur veys made, and definite statements with cost figures furnished to us by of horses, we are now in a position to say positively that on hau1s with in a horses working radius, i.e., the distance a team can travel in day, horses furnish more economical ser vice than motorized equipment.
 ''On local delivery work, from store to store or house to house, the evl- dence is overwhelmingly for horse drawn equipment. Ice companies, coal companies, groceries, bakeries, milk companies and all others whose bus1- livery work, agree emphatfcally with the great packing companies whose verdict is, On all hau1s under 20 miles per day, the horse is most eco- nomica1.
 In speaking of horses in the cities, MT. DinSmOre said:
 "Our investigations in cities dur ing the past year show that conlpeti- ton will force all cities to develop abundant terminals and team tracks, and this factor will inevitably lead to increased horse use. Boston. with many wharves and team tracks, has very few hauls that are not under two miles for the round trip, and Boston moves her enormous ship ments of wool, leather. fish. vegeta- bles, fruits, etc, at, a very low cost. Seventy-five per cent. of her mer- chandise, is horse-drawn and she en- joys the distinction of having the best lot of horses, on the average, of any city In America
 In showing how the development of the horse helps every section of the country, the report said:
 ''The Georgia farmer who buys team of mules pays over money which finds it's way into the pocket of a Ne braska farmer, who, in turn buys clothes made from the cotton raised by the Georgia farmer. Both profit. Nebraska cannot produce cotton, and 1t is more profitable for Georgia to raise cotton than to rear mules.
 Faulty road building in Pennsyl- vania has reduced the prices of horses in Colorado, for hard sur faced roadways, without side roads for farm teams, have forced farmers ad- jacent to such highways to keep their teams off the public roads because of danger of injury

JASPER CITIZENS
WANT Nj MORE
DEATH FARMS

| MONTICELLO, Ga, April IA
Never again shall this county know
a repetition of the death farm" hor-
rors, say it's citizens. The law and
order league, which was organized at
county wide mass meeting here Sat-
urday, is adding many members to
it's roll, and it is believed that with
the league in full operation obedience
to law will be the rule throughout
the bounds of the county.
The special session of the Jasper
county grand jury adjourned at 4
o'clock Wednesday afternoon, having
disposed of all business scheduled to
come before it. Tuesday and We'd
nesday several homicides which have
occurred in the county within the
past two years were thoroughly in
vestigated, but no bills of indict-
ments were found.
Monday, John S. Williams and
Clyde Manning were indicted for the
murder of eight negroes on the farm
of the former, while Williams three
sons, Huland, Leroy and Marvin
Williams, were indicted for the muir
der of three other farm hands. The
whereabouts of the boys is unknown,
although it is rumored that they
were seen last Saturday hiding out
in a swamp On one of their fathers
farms.

Man Seen in

Who is either a lunatic or an escaped
convict has been reported to have
been seen several times in the
sWamps in the southern section of
the county. The first to report him
were some negro boys who were
hunting and their dogs got on his
trail and bayed him. The boys came
running UP to see what it was and
found what they described as the
most awful looking man they ever
saw. They were so frightened at his
appearance that they turned and fled.
They said that he was so dirty.
ragged and greasy that they did not
know whether he was a white man
or negro.
A few days later white bow was
working in his fathers field and saw
a strange looking being approaching.
Upon seeing the boy. he turned and
ran toward a graveyard nearby. The
boy was also frightened so badly
hat re took to his heels and never
stopped until he found his father
His father investigated and saw the
tracks of the man going to the grave
yard and traced him into the swamp.
None who have seen him was able
to give a good description of him.
All reports agree that it was impos-
sible to tell whether he was white
man or negro and in each case he
would attempt to keep his face hid
