PAIGE BREAKS
 ALL RECORDS

A Paige "6-66," driven by Ralph Mulford. broke all worlds records for stripped stock car chassis from to 1 00 miles in officially sanctioned runs on the speedway at Unfontown. Pa, May 20, 1921. Included among the new records set up by the Paige was the one-hour mark, Mulford being of ficially accorded 89 miles, against the Sa established at the Sheepshead Bay speedway July 2S, 1917.
 Following an official worlds stock chassis record made January 21, 1921, when a Paige "6-66" Daytona model covered a measured mile in 35. 01 sec ond, a rate of 102.S miles an hour, the | iontown performances of non stop runs cap the climax to long series of events that establish the Paige "6--66" in an unassailable posi- tion of supremacy for power, speed and stamina. Paige may now legiti- mately claim a truly sensational clean sweep" of the record board. Lawrence Pennington, president Detroit Motor company, is enthusias- tic over the records held by this pop ular car and reports brisk business as result of the fecent price de- cline

 Such Is the conclusion extracted, like an infinitesmal particle of ra- dium, from tons of raw material gathered throughout the world by the ways and means committee of the House of Representatives, and just made public In its search for infor- nation as to wages paid throughout the world, the committee combed the records of almost every civilized country.

OVERLAND OWNERS
 DRIVE IN CONTEST
 AT INDIANAPOLIS
Sixty-six Cars Compete In Novel Test to Determine Economy of
 Famous Automobile

Indianapolis, Ind. June 11.--Claims of high economy in fuel consumption by Overland owners led to novel
 owners contest just closed here
 Sixty-six owners of Overland cars entered the test and their records
 showed a grand average of 26.6 miles to the gallon of gasoline. The win
 ner, James Wilson, of 1424 south Jer- sey street, Indianapolis, secured a mileage of s7.2 miles.
 Under the terms of the contest the owners brought their cars at hours
 which best suited their convenience to central service station where
 all gasoline was drained from their
 cars and a special container affixed
 to a stanchion of the windshield, An observer then got in the car Witn
 the owner and the car was driven | over a route which took the car into all manner of traffic conditions. All
 carburetor adjustments and any tun- ling of the cars. for the test were done by the owners.
 | The first 12 awards in the contest were won by owners who drove more
 than 30 miles to the gallon.

of time, after great war. They al- ways won't back to the war time level and then began to climb again.
 The committee also found confirm alton that no workman in the world gets tho pay of the American. Just as the American tops the workers of all other lands in efficiency and per day production. so does he excel them all in the size of his pay envelope.
 Back Seven Hundred Years
 In its search the committee went back nearly TOO years through the records of Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, and Buckingham Palace. It's first records start with the year 1252 and cover wages paid in the building trades in England Carpenters, inasons, bricklayers and plumbers received then a daily wage of six cents-and boarded themselves and their families on It. Laborers unskilled, were paid penny and three farthings-three and one-half cents,
 Then the climb began. In 1850, when Edward the Black Prince was winning his victories In France, the carpenters back home had advanced their wages to eight cents a day. A century later, when Henry V. fought the battle of Agincourt, t,-the carpen- ter at home was getting 12 cents. He received no increase for a century When Mary, Queen of Scots, was be- headed, the carpenter who built the stand where the execution took place received shilling day-a hundred per cent wage increase in 50 years Seventy years later, when called on to erect a beheading stand for Charles L the carpenter found his wage two shillings>a day.
 The British Carpenter
 In 1920 the average wage of the British carpenter was 23s 4d, or about s5.6o, the highest ever reached. It has receded bit since then, but in the light of history. 1t Is going back again.
 Copious records of the average American wage paid prior to and aft CT the Civil war are in existence. Ihe committee has gone back S0syears in our industrial life and finds that the average wage paid in 1S0 was 33 per cent of that paid in 1913. When the Civil war was started the average was 40 per cent of the 1913 standard In four years, the average wage in- creased almost 50 per cent. standing in 1865 at 5S per cent of the 1913 standard.
 Three years later--a situation al- most exactly parallel with that exist ing two years after the close of the World war-wages had increased more than so per cent over the 1881

PRICE REDUCED ON CHANDLER AND
 CLEVELAND CARS
E. R. Parker Motor Company, Loyal Distributors, Re- ceive Announcement of
 Price Decline

A substantial decline has been TO- corded In the price of the various models of the Chandler automobiles. decline which according to the Parker Motor company, carries this car back to the prices at which they sold in 1918.
 The Cleveland Six, also handled by the Parker Motor company, has been likewise reduced in price and is now selling at $1,295. at the factory at Cleveland.
 T. E. McCarty manager of the Parker Motor company, is exceeding ly gratified at these reductions and predicts a speedy and highly satisfac- tory increase in sales as a result. standard. They continued to rise till 1873 when the increase was nearly 80 per cent Then came the lean years of 1S7S-1Sso and wages dropped back to the level of 1866. It took labor 10 years to regain its lost ground, so that wages did not again equal the 1873 record until 1890. From then on, they climbed though a period of de- pression in 1894 and 1895 check ed their progress.
 New High Levels
 Thus Congress, studying ehe infor- nation just placed before 1t by the ways and means committee, finds that after every war fought by English speaking people wages went to a new high level and then fell back, only to reach and then surpass the previous high level. In 1917. when we entered the war. wages stood at 12S per cent of the 1913 standards. In 1920. at the peak, they had advanced about 80 per cent over the iyl7 figures.
 They are now on the ebb. But Just as surely as the ebbing tide changes In time, and comes back again In flood, so surely do the figures show that we are due--some time--for an other period of high wages, exceed ing labor's banner year of 1920,

 The savage gets little out of life, because he puts no love into it. He worships not God, but demons. An African tribe ties girl at low tide to stake from which shark takes her at high tide. That is to propitiate the spirits of malg- nity
 The serene old men and women are those who have given love to those about them. Sons may have gone wrong and daughters may not have been grateful, but men and women who love do not measure what they give by what they re- ceiye Always giving their cup IS always full, because it is the love that gives that satisfies.
 Love is the law of life It is the handmaiden of fimmortality-itis is love that perpetuates the species It is love that makes the wren sit two weeks on her eggs and an intelligent love that causes her to push her young from the nest when the time has come.
 That snappy emotion without substance back of it that is sometimes called love is not love. Love is made of oak It's coat may be of velvet, but it's ribs are of steel. It is intelligent Love does not deceive itself, because it is not vain.
 Love is big. It rises above the pettiness and meanness about it as snow-capped mountain peak towers above dank swamp at it's foot. Love does what is right whether it is appreciat- ed or is not. It does the work of the eternal, knowing that it's deeds cannot be undone.
 Love is the divine spark in the human. Wlth- out it the created fabric would fall tomorrow Without it humans would stop living, because living would not be worth while, Let him who does not believe this try the opposite. Let him nourish his hates if he would make his diet one of gall and vinegar.

Thursday will be one day when the
merchants OF Maysville will sidetrack
their own business interests in the
cause OF the farmer. In response to
the request of the County Tobacco Or
sanization and proclamation OF the
Mayor, business houses will be closed
and merchants and their employees
will take to the country in their auto

thoroughly by the local merchants
Only few will not heed the request,
he great majority will go to the coun-
try 10 help convert the few tobacco
growers in Mason county who have
net yet taken advantage Of this great
forward movement among growers.
The contract under which the grow
ors will sign up their tobacco will be
carefully explained to all growers
they visit. As Mason county has al
ready signed more than rs per cent
# the county's crop, there should be
little difficulty experienced in listing
the balance Of the crop and making
Mason county one hundred per cent
strong for the farmers organization.
