Nancy. are you going to marry An
thony Hunt
Il can't answer that question. |
don't know what I'm going ito do"
But you1l go with us tomorrow"
Yes. I'd do anything for Trix."
Miss Henderson breathed a sigh of
relief and said nothing more. For the
present she would have to be content
with that.
In the afternoon Trix was strong
enough to get up and Nancy decided
that a run on the beach would do hen
good. For a time everything seemed
suspended with Nancy. her ability to
feel was stunned and she had no plans
for anything beyond seeing that Trix
was safely started on the road to
health and happiness. Bruce's sudden
change of feeling seemed not to mat
ter in the face OF other things that
had happened. 1t did not even strike
Nancy as surprising, although If she
had been able to think logically she
would have realized that it was, in
a way, a concession.
Nancy and Trix were Il only :
short time, as ii was really too cold
to keep the child in the air for very
long. But when they returned 10 the
house and Triy was ~ensconced in her
room with her dolls around her and n
faint color in her cheeks from the ex-
ercise in the cold, Nancy began TO
wonder how ehe was going to get her
letter posted. She did not dare leave
Trix with any one but Miss Hender-
son. VINO had gone TO the village. Der
tina was trustworthy. Nancy might
intrust the letter to her. but. on The
other hand. she wanted to post 1t
herself; she wanted the feeling Of
having ended things definitely be
tween herself and Anthony. and che
wanted the letter TO reach him beforr
he came TO the house again.

CAN YOU TELL?
by X. j. and A. W. BOOMER
No. 3-Why We FrOwn

For a clear answer to this question
We must go back 10 the days OF in
fancy. The earliest expression TO be
observed on the face of an infant Is a
frown-the %forerunner OF a cry-and
in infants the IN way Of expressing
any and all disagreeable sensations Is
by crying. When a baby cries the
muscles around the eyes are stro gig
contracted. The muscles contract su
that the extra blood which is forced
into the veins and arteries OF the head
at such times will not burst the veins
or arteries. Thus the habit of frown.
ing is acquired in infancy and in some
people carried through the years. A
person absorbed in deep thought will
frown when his mind meets an obstacle
in the train Of thought which requires
extra concentration.
Almost every one frownt when he
encounters q strange or dlsagreeable
taste. Stammere rs frown because OF
being conscious Of their affliction. The
habit of frowning can grow on one IL
not guarded against. Such people have
the appearance OF being disagreeable
and they generally are.
A frown is, in short, the beginning
of a cry over something displeasant, in
maturity generally stopping short OF
the actual crying. Another and dis
tinct cause OF frowning q u when
locking at objects at u distance. A
frown under these circumstanc Is
made to prevent the entrance 10
much light into the eyes. Hero ain
we have the result OF something dis
pleasing and the natural effort TO off.

He realized then his impetuous

Bruce had fallen in love with Nancy.

was it going to end?
Miss Henderson went directly from

When rioting is done in a city We have never
seen why the police should be required to battle
with clubs when those rioting use bars OF iron and
brick bats. 1t is true that police do not feel justi-
fled in using guns in which they would Stay many
hundreds OF men who are good citizens but who
are under a stress OF excitement at the time. Out
OF experience gained in war we should learn how
to use gas to quell mobs. A gas that will tenn
porarily put a man out Of business but will not de-
stroy him would be the ideal dose to hand out on
such occasions. The police OF a city should have
more protection than to be required to enter into
these general fights where eyes are punched out and
skulls broken by men who are maddened and ex-
cited.

What the Jury Thinks

That the rain OF last night and this
morning win set u lot Of idle plows
in molten.
That the farmer who took advantage
of dry weather and cleared his fields
of cotton stalks will have an easier
time blowing than the fellow who
failed to do 50.
That the people are beginning to
want a little inside information rela-
ticve to the proposed cleanup in Ard
more and Carter county. Is it ever
going TO happen, or is it already hap.
penlng?
That a high power car driven by
an eight-year old kid of either sex,
is a menace TO the community. Some
where in the archives OF the city may
be found a law Against this practice
but like several othIr city laws, that
were enacted apparently to kill time.
ii has never been enforced and per.
maps never will be, meantime the
menace remains.
That il is about time for the city
dads to tear down the old sfHck called
the city Jail, and build a modern hold
ov,r with a room for holding NUM-
cipal court on the second floor. The
present structure IS more or less of
a joke and a determined prisoner with
a nickle can opener would experience
little embarrassment In getting out
should he desire to do so.
That the tower and dome on the
county court house was an expensive
and useless appendage. but as 1t is
there. and apparently paid for, there
Is no good reason why a clock should
not be installed and make II look like
something II wa meant 10 represent.
The cid clock was a failure, but the
commissioners could secure one without
so many frills that would do the work
and add greatly TO the looks OF the
structure.

HUsTLINC GREER.

Building concrete road extend

creamery, and the organization of a
sweet potato storage house are few
things the live people of Greer are
beginning this week. Our neighbor
on the north is certainly on the Job,
and it's aggressive community spirit
is worthy of emulation by other
towns and cities. The commercial
body there has done and is doing a
most commendablc work, in which it
is sustained by the business men of
Greer.
The three movements to be start
ed this week are among the number
of activities of city building nature
which has attracted attention
throughout the state for the past
year or two. Greer activity is the
kind Of activity which builds com
munitics into towns and towns into
cities and we congratulate the peo
pie Of that little city upon their pro

FRED DOMINICK LOSES FIGHT
IN THE HOUSE.
The State.

The State.
Washington, May 4.-The house
this afternoon defeated Representa-
tive Dominick of South Carolina in
an effort to make it impossible for
the farmers Of the country, having
organized a cooperative marketing
association, to be checkmated by the
secretary of agriculture at his pleas
ure.
The second section of the bill
authorizing the farmers to organize
provides that at any time the sccre-
tary of agriculture is displeascd with
the price of agricultural products he
can call an investigation, and turn
the evidence thus adduccd over to the
district attorney and secure an in
junction.
Mr.. Dominick, holding that the see
ond section practically nullified the
purpose of the bill, moved at amend
by striking out this section. He was
outwittcd although 90 members stood
in his support.
Mr.. Dominick declared in hi;
speech that before the United States
district court could determine the
merits Of the issue, the lettuce and
cucumbcrs held by the injunction
from the market, would have dacom-
posed But his argument in face of
the Republican machine, had no ap-
prcciable weight. The farmers in
the gallery, however, supported him.
