No, indeed.
Somebody seems to have

right, the Penn management
had exactly six bales of hay

DUSENBURY FOUND
 ON RAILROAD TRACK WITH SEVERED ARM
Man Who Knocked Wife Un- conscious With Blow of Fist Meets With
 Retribution

Joe Dusenbury, alleged to have att tackled his wife, Ruby, at their resi- dcnce on Fifth avenue last night, and to have knocked her unconscious with his fists, was found lying in the Louisville and Nashville rail- road yards near the passenger sta- tion of that road at midnight last night with the entire muscle portion of his right arm cut off. Railroad officials said the accident was caused by O kicked" box car. Dusenbusy was sent to St. vincents hospital, where he was reported to be in a serious condition.
 The railroad employees immediately called Ridout's ambulance and noti- fled police headquarters. The theory of the accident was that Dusenbury, who had been drinking, went to sleep in the yards, and allowed his arm to rest on the track. A switched box car was rolled down the track and passed over his arm. severing the major portion of the muscle.
 Call Officers Jones and Smith, who answered the call, stated that Dusen- bury continuously called for Ruby while at the hospital. which led them to believe that he was the husband of the injured woman. This fact was verified by an Identification card found in his pocketbook.

 The DeSoto, which is listed in the marine registery as a tanker or S,ooo tons, was reported to have been abandoned in latitude 22.45, longi- tude 922s, and the Bella, listed as a freighter of 7S1 tons, in latitude 2e.40 and longitude 74.4.

It is reasonable to presume, therefore, that Lasker regarded as ridiculous effort to deny the thirsty liquor at sea, especially when his law yer had said that liquor might be served legally, and especially since his patronage depended on such sery- ice. It was easy for Lasker to assume that without patronage his marine would prove failure; that with de- stroyed marine the navy would lose it's prestige and it's power; and that without a navy the government would eventually fail. So Uncle Sam was made bartender in that the govern ment might be preserved.

 The text was taken from Galatians vi:10; "As we have therefore oppor- tunity. let us do good to all men, especially unto those who are of the household of faith" taken in con junction with another text, "Whatso- ever d man soweth that shall he also reap
 In opening his sermon, pr. Stuart related how on his arrival at Lake Junaluska, N. C., recently, his oldest daughter had called his attention to the book, The Americanization of Edward Bok," and how he and other members of his family were so in spired by reading it that the ex- pressed the wish that he might sell 1t" to every member of his audience.
 After telling the story of the tree- less, shrubless and grassless sand bar, former haven of pirates, which Edward Bok's grandfather converted into a haven of rest and of beauty by his initiative in planting trees and making it the home of thousands upon thousands of birds, Dr. Stuart told his hearers of the admonition given to the 13 children of the elder Box by their mother, after the father had died, to live up to his motto. T will make this world bit prettier, a bit happier and bit better because I have lived in it."
 That's my sermon this morning" said Dr. Stuart If I could sell this to you like a merchant sells his wares you would also say these same words, as Edward Bok's mother im- pressed them on her children. How much we can do by just planting. Did you ever plant anything2 A tree, a good thought, a good motive? The three biggest words are: Life and love and opportunity Without life there would be nothing. and without love life itself is barren. Opportuni- ties are alway swith you.
 "An average of 100 people of the First Methodist church are always sick. There are always sorrows and joys for you tQ share. There is al ways poverty and wealth. Some one has said. There is nothing more pa7 thetic than just being rich' The richer you are the more isolated you become.
 "There are many opportunities for you to make this world better ana happier. while there is so much mis- fortune in the world. while there are storms and fires and disaster or every kind. Where do you get your opportunities? Find your opportuni- ties. Read the story of Edward Box and learn one of the great secrets of true success"
