Ford s,PIan For Mussel Shoals
 Announced
BY EDWARD THIERRY

IN CAMP, VIA OAKLAND. Md, Aug. S.-What is Henry Ford going to do with She nitrate plant at Mus ' Gle Shoals, Ala, which he has offered to purchase from the government for $5,OOO,O0O cash and a yearly rental of sl,6SO,OO0 on a 100-year lease?
 His plans are so stupendous he will not now reveal them. But in an ex- elusive interview he authorized these statements:
 mammoth electrical industry will be established on the banks of the Tennessee river.
 Nitrate production will only use one-third of the cheap water power.
 One big industry will be the melt ing of steel railroad cars into an al- loved metal-MAKING THREE CARS OUT OF ONE,
 Ford, who is vacationing in camp with Thomas A. Edison and H. $. Firestone, chuckled over his own amazing statement that he would make three cars grow" where only one grew" before.
 ''I cannot discuss plans in detail while the proposition is still before Congress" Ford said.
 Lighter, Better Cars
 Yes, we plan to make nitrate for fertilizer. But nitrate is only a part of it. One big reason we made the proposition to the government and reason that might interest the rail- roads-is that we want to manufac- ture railroad cars that will be lighter and better.
 Light rolling stock is one of the big needs of American railroads. And We will make new and better cars out of JUNK
 We expect to use one-third of the 90O000 horsepower at Muscle Shoals cheap horsepower-for electric fur naces to melt up steel cars. Out of every enc car that is ready for the scrap heap we will make three new cars.
 Stretching Metal
 Stretch them-thats the idea When the steel is melted down We will introduce alloys and stretch d 60,000-pound car into three times its equivalent in light, durable metal.
 There is water power at Muscle Shoals that will make our electric furnaces possible Water power is the big thing It is being criminally wasted everywhere.
 Thomas Edison and l took ride down the Potomac river the other day. On the canal we saw canal boats hauling coal.
 we agreed that if the river were harnessed properly there would be no need of the coal being carried up and down. Houses could be heated and lighted and factories operated on cheap water power.
 Shouldn't Burn Coal
 "Why, coal ought not to be burned at all!
 "The common sense thing to do is to take the coal out of the mines and take out all the by-products-light. oils, coke, tar, benzol, gas, etc.
 We do that in Detroit. We use 5000 tons of coal day, and we have enough of valuable by-products left over after using everything we need in our plants to sell coke to the city of Detroit and put gas into the city gas mains"

WASHINGTON, Aug, 3.-A child's plaything has become the center of a three-cornered international con test. It probably will play big part in the November conference on. dis armament and Far Eastern affairs here.
 The plaything is Chinese petroleum Up to few years ago children were the principal consumers of the Chin csc oil supply. They blew it through straws and made bubbles as our chil- dren do with soap.
 Japan, Great Britain and the Unit ed States see the possibilities in Chi nse oil as fuel for merchant ships.

born of disappointment. | You never knew my mother - my final memory of her is like that of a diamond, cold, beautiful, with a sug- gested brilliancy even in death, but austere.
 Pve been true to her belief until this morning - when I awakened and i looked at the intimate bits of silk and 1 lace which were to have been part of my rousseau. I knew then couldn't do it. Somehow I must have found the soul my mother lost I'm answering the urge of that when l tell you that because l do not love you I cannot marry you. I'm giving you your freedom, Tom, and it will be ! precious to you since you know what black future you have escaped
 I'm not the woman for you. You were meant for pig things. I would ruin you. l would be making a ma terial trade. Some woman worthy of you will find her lifes happiness fin l developing your possibilities = while { l play about awhile as the moth which just escapes the flams. HELGA.
 My bridges are burned I have turned from the world of pretense and ldleness to the world of reality.
 A new page in the book of destiny mas been turned. At the top of it is written my name.
 And now l am alone with the fu- ture before me. Shall I wield it as VIII! UT tomorrow, as I launch on a yet uncompassed career, will I be- come the pawn of my own folly? (Copyright 1921 by Newspaper Enter

"Let me try
YOUR tobacco"

Only an unlucky man asks you that.
He is either out of tobacco or he isn't
satisfied with the tobacco he has
picked for himself.
Tosmoke pipe tobacco that doesn't
suit.you to a T is to feel a little irri-
tated every time you light up.
Where you should be taking your
comfort, you feel sore over something
missing.
No one is so patient as a pipe
smoker. He will smoke one kind Of
tobacco that doesn't quite satisfy him
until the COWS come home, or until
some trouble crowds him so that he
notices how little comfort he is actual
ly getting from his little old pipe.
But he hasn't been happy-dimly
he has realized it all the time.
And when he asks someone else for
pipeful and finally comes upon the
smoking tobacco that is just his-oh
me, oh my, but he's happy man!
He now gets out of his smoking
what others get--the solid comfort
that takes the sting out of the alarm
clock mornings and helps his nerves to
relax at the end OF hard day.

card to us. II you want to add the
name of your tobacco dealer, we'll
make sure that he has Edgeworth in
stock in case you like it.
OFF to you at once we'll ship post
paid samples Of both kinds OF Edge
worth-Plug Slice and Ready Rubbed.
When it comes, give the little old
pipe a Spring housekeeping and fill it
to the brim with Edgeworth. Settle
back in your chair and put your feet
UP somewhere-the higher you get
your feet the more comfortable you
feel for short time. Then light up
and make up your mind for yourself
just what you think of Edgeworth.
Edgeworth Plug Slice is formed into
a cake or plug, then cut into thin, OBJ
long slices. You peel off one thin, fra
grant slice, rub it between your hands
to just the fineness you personally like
best, and there you have an average
pipeful.
Edgeworth Ready Rubbed is just
the same tobacco already rubbed up
for you. It's ready to pour straight
from the little blue can into your pipe.
Both kinds pack so well that they
light easily. That's why they burn so
freely and evenly to the very bottom
of the little old pipe.

suit the needs and means of all pur-

LESSON WAS SPOILED
One Small Pupil at Least Misunder-
stood Just What Teacher HAD
Intended to impress.

The fifth-grade teacher was fond OF
the young principal and it was often
rumored that he was engaged to her.
They managed to keep 1t a secret from
the children, yet most of them were
suspicious. One way she showed her
affection was by the way she cooper
ated with him in all his pet schemes.
So when he started a movement
against smoking she promptly began to
help him out.
First she demanded that all her boys
who smoked bring to her all the to-
bacco they had In their pockets. They
did it and it was goodly supply. TAX
ing the box which held it, she said to
one of the boys. you take this down
to Mr.. t"
A little boy In the rear of the room
piped out: Teacher, my sister, Bess,
she's goin' to give her beau tobacco
for his birthday, too"
