ARLINGTON MAN
OUT FOR STATE
HIGHWAY POST
Charles T. Jesse Is Strongly
Supported by County
Officials.

CLARENDON, Va, April Is
Charles T. Jesse. an attorney and
former member OF the House Of
Delegates from Arlington, is being
mentioned for a place on the State
Highway Commission. 1t is under
stood he has the support of prac.
tically every present county official
and many prominent citizens of
Arlington.
At the last meeting OF the county
board of supervisors a resolution
was adopted supporting Jesee and
was forwarded to Governor e. Lee
Trinkle. The resolution cited the
fact that Jesse had been a prime
mover in good roads movements
and that his past experience as a
legislator and qualifications as a
lawyer fitted him for a place on
the highways body.
While in the assembly Jesse drew
up the bill governing Arlington
county's sanitation. Considerable
criticism of the measure was made
after it's passage and this year
Jesse was the dominating figure in
the move for a new sanitary bill.
He drew up a measure which was
discussed by county citizens asso-
Citations, and, after amending II as
suggested by the various community
organizations, went to Richmond
and aided materially in getting the
act passed,

shortest time SO as to get possession
of the disc-wheel coaster wagon at
the earliest possible moment.
Supply Large; Time Short.
THE supply of these special Of
fer toy pistols is large but the time
limit for their distribution is short,
so my advice to boys and girls is to
start to work Immediately so as to
get this added award as well as the
classy coaster.
Because OF the unexpectedly great
demand for these coasters so early
in the game, the circulation manager
has arranged with a second factory
to supply a large numbek OF them
at once, and the two factories with
which he Is dealing will be kept
working at top speed to keep up

Two years more abstention will

SEVEN EXCELLENT PROVERBS.

In addition to being masterful politi-
clan, first class lawyer and good TEL
low, Attorney General Dsugherty has
proved himself to be philosopher. This
is evidenced in his issuance recently of
several wholesome proverbs, seven of
which follow:
eff man does the right thing, he will
have the help and approval of those who
know him, and if he does not do the right
thing, he doesn't deserve it."
1.-The world never turns against man
until after he has turned against the
world, and it is never 100 late to wake
up"
"A man owes society. his country and
the world more than it owes him and
more than he can ever pay"
''If one has self-respect he will not go
far wrong"
IF one respects others he will do them
no injury, either in person or property.
''In this country one man has the same
freedom and the same rights as another.
every man owes the same degree OF
loyalty to his country and the same obli-
CATION to society"
Attorney General Daugnerty concluded
with the admonition: "Let US hold up our
heads and be of good cheer Let US love
God and be grateful. Let us obey the
laws of our country AMI let US OBEY the
Ten Commandments"

1.-THE PiESIOSAURIAN

The vision of an animal down in South
America with neck nobody knows how
long, and a tail longer than its neck spik
ed into a war club has attr icted the at
tention of scientists everywhere, and
they want to catch him for pet; or if
they can't get him, they want to sample
the brand of liquor that will make such
vision possible. There is a remote
chance that such an animal may be run
ming or swimming around down in the
lakes and morasses at the fag end of the
Andean vertebrs, because the fauna pres-
ent and last of South America is differ
ent from North America. This is sup
posed to be due to the fact, which geo.
logists say is authenticated, that North
and South America were disconnected at
one time so that the fauna, flora and
even the people of the southern half of
the western hemisphere are different
from the northern half and more like
that of Australia, with which they think
it may have been connected in some far
off day, and which they further think
was one of the last bits Of earth created !;
or if that is not a fact, that for some
misdemeanor it was shut off from the
rest of the " orld so it could be pointed
out as a horrid example of what we might
gression at some time In our history.
The extinct fauna of Souih America is
rare and interesting so if there should be
any leftover specimens alive they must
be interesting and aged-say ten million
years or So If the creature could be
made to talk what a lot of gossip she
could tell-that is if the thing was she.
She could tell all about the racket in the
Garden of Eden, and whether Adam real
ly had another girl named Lillith and how
Eve cut her out. Elmer r. Riggs, curator
of the Field Museum, Chicago, is to head
an expedition to South America to hunt
for this plesiosaurian, and If they come
across a megatherium, a glyptodon or a
ground sloth, they will not pass them BY
The latter animal is interesting because
when the southern and northern parts OF
America came together some of the sloths
Travelled north 1t is a matter of record
that the first groun sloth found In North
America was described by Thomas JET

MR. HOOVER'S NEW JOB

TO Mr.. Herbert Hoover has been dele
gated the task of controlling the ether.
In his new Job it will be his duty to see
that the air above the United States is
not cluttered up with all kinds of rad o
messages. To have predicted the possible
need for such control ten years ago would
have been considered the heighth of sill
ness and folly by almost everyone. Today
such control is an absolute necessity.
or several years scientists in their
laboratories and small boys in their
shops" have been tinkering with AL
kinds and sorts of wire coils, electric
spark gaps, condensers, and detectors.
AS result the scientists have devised
ways of sending messages through the
air with very little expense, and the
small boys have done their best to keep
the air lull of such messages.
A wireless telephone Is a possibility.
but it will never be used outside of the
experimental laboratories the learned
college professors said only few years
ago. Today ships talk to one another
from opposite sides of the globe, grand
opera stars sing to thousands each night,
and sermons are heard by congregations
on Sunday morning without either preach
er or church members getting out of bed
On rainy nights the wireless phone
enables many persons to hear excellent
musical concerts while sitting around
their own firesides. President Harding
recently delivered ar address in Wash
ington. and his words were heard smul-
taneously in New York, Chicago, and
San Francisco.
With the air continually filled by every
imaginable kind of noise, it is not sur
prising that some such person as Mr.
Hoover should be called IN to say who is
privileged to talk and who is not. AS
interest in radio grows, the rules govern
ing it's use will of necessity have to be
made more strict. This will cause no
great inconvenience to the majority of
persons, however, for ''listening in" is
much more fascinating than transmitting

E What the clam canning industry means
to the coast of Maine may be judged from
the instance furnished by the Thomaston
factory of Black & Cav, Gamers, Inc,
which began packing that product Mon
dav. Around 200 bushels of the popular
bivalves are being canned daily. and in
the process of this work 10 men and 40
women are employed in the factory alone.
DIGGING the clans is a task for so men,
and the factory runs two boats. 1t is
easy to see how this places much money
in circulation at time when other work
is generally slack. Incidentally the Black
