The landscape was covered deep in
snow, but we picked out q fairly large

HIS WIFE's SECRETARY
Viseount Astor Plays Second Fiddle to
Mrs. Astor. ".

Waldorf Astor may be a, viscount, a
member Of the house of lords and a
lot Of other grand things in England,
but in America he is just a pleasant
youthful chap who is the husband OF
Lady Astor, says New York dis
patch.
During the excitement Of Lady AS
tors arrival hershusband gamely un-
dertook the pinch hitting function,
acting as her social secretary and
doubling in brass when it was neces-
sary to rescue his wife from the sharp
questioning Of fifty eager reporters
But he was regarded in about the
same light as a groom at a wedding.
All day long inquisitive visitors
rang the bell at the home Of Mrs
Charles Dana Gibson, with whom
Lady Astor Is staying. She saw no
one, but II the visitor seemed i'm
portant enough. Lord Astor was sent
out.
mo, I'm sorry, but it will be i'm
possible for Lady Astor to see you"
he would say. Then realizing that
he was being taken for the butler,
he would add:
"You see, I'm her husband, that's
why 1 can speak with authority"
Lord Astor takes obvious pride In
his wife's career and acts as her poll
tical adviser. He managed her cam
paign for the house Of commons
He isn't alarmed over the entry OF
women into politics. and having seen
probably one Of the best of them in
action, isn't afraid that men will be
crowded out.
AFTER all the number Of women
who can go in for that sort Of thing
is extremely limited. We have only
two in commons-and I'm the hus-
band Of one Of them"

QUEER ISLAND FOUND
Pacific Island Contains Great pepos'
its Of Guano.

It's or Guano.
A description Of what Is believed tc
be one of the most peculiar islands IN
the world and one Of the lonlies'
spots in the Pacific, Walpole Island
which has been submerged by the
ocean at least six times from all in
dications, was given at Sydney, Aus
tralia, recently by A. o.. Mackay, +. K
G.. S. representative Of the Austral
Guano company on the island.
Walpole is about $50 miles east by
south of Noumea and contains great
deposits of guano. With Surprise Is-
land and the Chesterfield group 1t Is
leased by the Austral concern. 1t Is
limestone table, 2SO feet from the
ocean accessible ut only one spot at
break in the cliffs where steps have
been cut.
Mackay said that there were re-
markably clear indications on the
cliffs Of successive water levels and
that pumice, coral and other shells
on this .curiously raised platform
showed that at least six times 1t must
have been at or under sea level. Many
traces of ancient human habitation
were found in the form Of walls, OBJ
viously built by man, columns Of coral
eight and nine feet high, large tombs
and clam shell bladed instruments
several specimens Of which Mackay
has presented to the Australian
museum. Fresh water supplies were
discovered in two caves. Mackay ex-
pressed the opinion that formerly
there was a much greater land sur
face than at present. ..,.
II found undoubted signs Of pre-
historic habitation." he said. Il. also
found in places, where the guano ce-
ments on to the coral, the reDains Of
the horned turtle which am informed
have been found nowhere else except
in South America and Lord Howe Is
land" =
Mackay said that probably the for
mer inhabitants had escaped in boats
when the ocean rose and submerged
the island or that they had been
drowned in the rising tide. The present
population Of the isle consists Of six
white men, 80 Japanese and about 1uc
Loyalty islanders. The singing Of
these islanders serves to make life
less monotonous than it would be
otherwise. Mackay said, poultry and
goats are raised for food while vege-
tables and fruits grow luxuriently
tomatoes growing as large as IL
pounds in weight. Cricket and fishing
are the main diversions Of the resi-
dents. On Sundays the Loyalty is
landers hold two church services
which the whole population attends

Former Assistant States At

Law Causes Many Girls to

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-(By u. Pr
Prohibition was blamed today for
modern boys and girls going wrong
by Miss Bess Sullivan who resigned
as an assistant states attorney after
spending two years handling cases
Of delinquent children.
THE prohibition law has caused
more girls 10 go wrong than any
one imagines," she sa d. II am not
against prob bltlOn. but ! am for
change in the method OF enforce
ment.
Boys are not real fellows unless
they carry hip liquor, and girls, who
used TO be satisfied with ice cream
sodas, sit IN cabarets drinking syn
thetic gin half the ght. They never
thought OF liquor before prohibition.
THE trouble starts when they

More girls are ruined in taxi cabs
than in any other place"
Public discussion Of sex problems
was condemned as a bad influence
for youth by Miss Sullivan.
Sex is the most sacred thing we
know" she said. 1T should be taught
TO every hoy and girl in the sanctity
OF the homes. Public discuss ons
arouse the curiosity of boys and

in sex, instead OF normal pursuits.

MUCH ILLITERACY IN
U.s., LEGION CHARGE
Ex-Service Men Would Reduce
immigration to America
for Five Years.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Nov "a
Germany is now first on the list In
the relative literacy OF nations and
the United States eleventh, accord
ing TO a statement made public to-
day by Garland W. Powell, national
director OF the American Legi.n's
AmeTicanizauon commission.
Countries which have fewer IT,
Lterates than America. accord ing TO
Powell, are in relative order: Ger
many, Denmark, Switzerland. Hol-
land, Finland Norway, Sweden
Scotland. England and Wales and
France.
The estimate OF the 1920 census.
showing that more than five million
persons, or six percent OF the Ameri-
can population, is illiterate. is too
low Powell states. because a con-
fession OF illiteraey 10 census
taker was necessary 10 eRroie the
person in the list OF those who can
neither read nor write. This made
il easy for the illiterate 10 conceal
his ignorance, since there was no
test OF literaey. A person who
could read and write only a few
words was not classed as an IL
literate, Powell also pointed out.
In twelve states the total gain in
illiteracy was 1884 during the
period between 1910 and 1920.
These states. according 10 the Le-
gion, are for the most part those
which have received the greatest
influx Of immigrants during the past
decade.
-The American Legion is ap-
palled at the discovery of Americas
low standing among the great
powers of the world in point Of lit
eracy." the Legion Amerieanization
director stated. The correction Of
this depilorable stat Of affairs Will
be one Of the foremost activities Of
the AmeFieanization commission"
Among the first steps which the
Legion will take are the holding Of
an American Education Week, De-
eember 10 Q, inclusive, and the
undertaking of a night for total ex-
clusiop Of immigrants for a period
of five years. The Legion's hope
is to eliminate illiteracy by 1927 ac-
cording TO Mr.. Powell.

HEALTH OF CLIO SCHOOLS

The Messenger is glad to be able
to present to its readers this week a
summary of the work, and conclus-
ions of Miss Lucille Gamble, county
nurse, with regard to the public
schools of Clio. Miss Gamble finds
that there are enrolled in the schools
All pupils, of whom she has exam
ined 800 for physical fitness. Two
hundred forty-seven pupils were
found to have defective teeth, 81
defective vision, SO had diseased ton.
sils, and 53 were ten per cent or
more underweight. Two hundred
ninety-nine notices of the different
defects were sent to parents of uup-
lis. Corrections made since last in
spection, 72. Number using the
tooth brush daily, 243, or 62.3 per
cent. Sixty per cent. of High School
pupils use the tooth brush daily, an
improvement of 18 per cent. over
last years report. Miss Gamble OBJ
serves that not enough corrective
work has been done in the Clio
schools and says that Dawson, with
an enrolment $50 smaller, has ac-
complished more in the way of cor
rections. She also notes that Clio
schools need a pair of scales, so as
to create interest among the pupils
in the important matter of weight
and diet. She says that many of the
country schools have installed scales
and that the schools of Clio ought not
to be behindhand in this important
matter. She recommends strongly
the Health Crusade work now being
done in the schools and says the chill
dren should be up to standard ply
sieally as we'll as mentally. We want
to say for Miss Gamble that we be-
lieve she is hard and conscientious
worker, as well as a scientific one,
and that both parents and scholars
can reap a great deal of benefit by
cooperating with her in every prac-
teal and possible way.

CREAMERY OPENS APRIL IL

The local plant of the Detroit
Creamery Company is a great asset
of this community and locality. 1t is
our largest manufacturing concern
and together with its patrons consti-
tutes an industry that covers a wide
stretch Of territory and affects the
prosperity of a very large number of
people. Through the effects of the
late business depression this factory,
like many others in different lines of
business was compelled to close down.
Now it is going to open again and its
permanence as an institution will
perhaps depend upon the patronage
that is accorded it-upon the amount
of milk that can be secured. We
sincerely trust that our farmer
friends will take proper stock of the
situation and afford the creamery
every possible consideration, realiz-
ing the Importance Of it in the years
that are to come. The company is
now actively considering the manu-
facture of canned milk here which
would probably do away with any
future shut down of the plant
