ROTAR|ANS GET FIRST GL|MPSES
 OF BATTLEF|ELDS
After Crossing Atlantic Safe ly, Practically Entire Party Gets SeaSick on
 Channel /
By ROTARY ANN

ostend, Belgium, June 2s.-(Spe- ciaLJ-After coming entirely across the Atlantic without being sea sick the English channel came near prov ing the Water1oo or the entire Bir- mingham party.
 Leaving London by rail at s:30 a. m., passing through ancient old Cam terbury and the orchard district of England, we reached Dover at II o'clock. The trip across the channel to Ostend is just four hours. It was . cool, clear day, with just enough breeze to roughen the water. As we pulled out from the Chalk cliffs, passing the wreck of sunken Brit ish vessel, we realized that we were on the edge Of the war zone.
 Our little channel steamer rode the waves like a tiny shell, and when about 1 o'clock the signal for lunch was given, we answered the call with some hesitation. In the dining sa- loon the motion of the vessel seemed more perceptible than elsewhere. No one would look you in the eye. Every one wore sickly, pale expression, but also a forced smile. Our first victim was Mrs. Glenn, who after the soup course reluctantly but with some determination announced that she believed she would go on deck-

HOW Al RUNNER FEELS

Charles W. Paddock, in Lesle's. After the sensation of the start has been experienced. and the sound of the gun has sent you hurling for ward and into your stride, the first thought is one either of satisfac- tion or disappointment over the start This feeling Is more often de- termined by the position of your op- ponents, particularly in champion ship race. And these positions are easily learned without the aid of your eyes, for your brain, sharpened and strained to the finest edge by the excitement of the contest, regis ters the place of each competitor, and at the same time leaves your mind clear for concentration ana thought
 The training you have done in practice is remembered, the drilling you have received on increasing your stride, on breathing. on the regula- tion of each muscle as you swing along, is concentrated upon in that short space. But the only power of self-exertion which you possess is ! physical one, for your mental at..- tuQc iidS dlTtdug DtcH iiAto DtLOi the race and by the start you made.
 This mental attitude is very often determined by your size. If you are small and have the advantage of a swift start, your attitude will in- variably be one of exaltation at the beginning of a race, and a dread fear of being caught toward the end Sut if you are afraid of your start. yop will undoubtedly depend upon your size and strength to catch your fleet-footed opponent. and you will fight.
 That fighting instinct, which IS part of Kirksey's running, plays So prominent a part as sometimes to r,nlterially hurt his speed. For he tries so hard that towards the finish his straining muscles are prone to tie up, which shortens his stride and spois his form. Sholtz suffers from an idea which was drilled into him in his early running days and V hich also causes him to strain and struggle with himself toward the finish. without any real cause. oioitz was made to believe that fast start made poor finish. When Sholtz hears the end of the race. he un- consciously allows that idea to mas ter him and he fades"
 To the little runner. the start and the first part mean the most. for 1t is here that he endeayors to build up enough lead to insure victory. but to the big runner, the last few yards and the finish are the things he lives for in the race. The per- feet finish for the large sprinter makes up for any faults he may have in the start, while the perfect finish for the good starter rounds out a splendid achievement.

 Will you come back with me to the White Lodge. Mary? We can have cup of tea there. I have the car waiting downstairs. Bellairs' aun, said at the conclusion of her visit
 Mary looked dubiously at Dick, all though he was eonyalescent, she didn't like to leave him.
 Yes. go dear. It Will do you good" smiled Dick. He thought that his young wife had been shut up far too much of late.
 T won't be long said Mary, kissing him.
 Arrived at the White Lodge. Car rington Bellairs-Iooking very sulky and morose-came in to join the ladies.
 This was the first time that he'd seen mary since the dramatic an nouncement of her marriage He had been too hurt and angry for any further communications or meetings with the girl.
 Glad that your husband is picking up his strength again." he growled He was trying to be generous, though it wasn't easy. Nasty business, the whole affair." The country police are no earthly good-or they'd have caught that dirty Cingalee and made short work of him."
 A pause.
 "To think that he was actually in my house, toor' Bellairs went on And now my ward goes and elopes- elopes-with Nandaveer, whom I'd be willing to bet was also involved in the affair." A shady rascal. Van daveer--'
 Warrington. please. pleasew re- monstrated his aunt, wondering how on earth her nephew had found out the disturbing news of Eyes elope. ment.
 T wash my hands of her" went on the indignant man. Ewes an un- grateful little minx."
 She cares for MT. Vandaveer Yor don't want her to be unhappy surely?'
 Unhappy? No, of course not! Bui it's coming to her, all the same! or course, she'll be unhappy-with thai rascal I won't settle one penny on her-for that's all he's after"
 Bellairs' aunt made some excuse to leave the room. Bellairs and Mary were now tete a tete.
 Speaking of Eve" said the former grimly, drawing from his pocket. book a paper. Your husband just over month ago went surety for her on a note Well, here it is. She hasn't paid up. And he-as guarantee will have to pay up now-to me There. Look at it! There's your Dicks signature"'
 Mary-her business instincts all awake-examined the document. Then her heart sank.
 For Dick, in vouching for Eyes honesty--a negative affair had really signed the document and was due to pay Darlington Bellairs, who was the silent partner in this instance in firm of Jewish Money lenders sum that amounted to 5000.

NORTH ALABAMA
 FULL IF WEEVILS
Farmers Playing Safe By Planting Ccfn Between Cot
 ton Rows, Choosing Later

Auburn. July Special. )-The reports from the north Alabara county farm demonstration agents reaching Auburn show that boil weevils are very numerous in that section of the state, but they indi- cate that the farmers themselves are very busy in preparing to stand the shock caused in case the weather con- ditions during the next few weeks are such as to make 1t possible for the weevils to greatly injure cotton.
 John F. Yarbrough made an inter- esting report of Lawrence county farmer who has planted crop of corn between the rows of cotton, with view to blowing up either the corn or the cotton as soon as it is cotton will do. In case the cotton should indicate good crop, it will be necessary for him to blow up the corn, but he will lose only the seed corn. because he cultivates the cot ton in planting the corn.
 
 comes the report that boil weevils are in all parts of Lauderdale county, even as far north as the Tennessee line, and along with this report is a statement that the farmers have been advised to plant a second crop of Irish potatoes by the county farm bureau, and that they are following the advice.
 J. D. Wood of Franklin county. W. l.. McArthur of Jackson, and l.. W. Johnson of Cullman county, arc other agents who report that the farmers are planting a second crop of Irish potatoes, using the Lookout mountain variety.
 According to F. NJ. White. the Clay county farmers have just bought CO., operatively one ton of seed potatoes for late planting, and all these things added together indicate that the farmers will not become too pessim- istic about the boil weevils.

 Syndicate CII-What Dick Touched For

Dick remembered all the clrcum- stances of the encounter. One day four weeks after the attaclS-he spoke of it 10 Mary, descrlb- ing the steanhy movements of the .Cingalee.
 Although he'd spent the whole day tracking us, he didn't get the diamond, after all"
 Sweet heart, 1 have it; it's quite safe" she whispered back. her lips on Dicks.
 'Did the police find where the precious Cingalee is hiding? They might almost arrest Julian Wanda veer also for complicity in the af- fair Because, of course, he's at the bottom of the business" So spoke Dick.
 The CingaIee has completely dis appeared And l believe that Van daveer has cleared out of the White Lodge for good and all. Mir. Bel lairs found out that he was making clandestine love to Eve--'
 Dick gave a weak smile.
 Pm not surprised to hear that piece of news" he said. Eve al ways did like Vandaveer. The fel- low seemed to dominate her some way
 MT. Bellairs won't give his con sent to any sort of an engagement between them" said Mary.
 Late that afternoon they had vis- tor. It proved to be the aunt of Burlington Bellairs-in an extraor- dinarily gracious mood In her heart of hearts she was pleased at Nary s marriage. For now the girl was defi- nitely removed from Darlington Bel airs and could not possibly become his wife and therefore could not oust herself from her comfortable position as the mistress of the White Lodge.
 Eve. too. had confessed to her under a mood of unusual emotion that she had never really cared for Dick Clardn. So Mary hadn't really 'cut Eve out"
 It was to speak of Eve that this good madam had today resolved to make a call upon the young couple at the Barley Now.
 q don't know how to break the news to Carrington-but Eve has run away" She seated herself beside Dicks bed, and beamed upon him and his pretty wife. The dear. naughty child"
 Has Eve got married?' Mary in- quired. all interest. "Or has she once more decided upon a eareer?"
 Now, don't tell anyone" said Bel lairs aunt, thoroughly enjoying her position as raconteur. She lowered her voice Eve has eloped with that fascinating MT. Vandaveer-and don't blame her-for Darlington never would give his eonsent--and Eve was eating out her heart se- cretly."
 Mary, with difficulty, repressed a smile. She could not picture Eve in the throes of an unhappy love. But aloud she merely said that she hoped Mir. Vandaveer would make Eve a fine husband. contrary to MT. Bel lairs' opinion. and wondered once mere inwardly what share Nandaveer
