Great Britain Bars Feathers.

No more feathers can enter Great
Britain now that the plumage pro-
hibition bill is in force. Women who
have feathers in their hats are the
envy of their friends and osprey feath-
ers, bird of paradise plumes, and all
kinds of fans will shortly be worth
their weight in five-pound notes. Af-
rican ostriches and elder ducks are the
only exceptions to the law, as the
plumage of both species can be OBJ
tained without cruelty while they are
moulting. The new law does not ap-
ply to passengers coming into the ,coun-
try with feathers as part of their per-
sonal apparel. Birds Of paradise re-
Gently have been killed at the rate Of
$4,000 year in full breeding plumage,
and as many as 100000 albatrosses
were killed in one raid in the Pacific.
Florida has been swept clean Of
egrets, whole colonies Of these birds
having been butchered at the breeding
season to obtain the. feathers some
times known as "ospreys."

Right You Are, john
Foolish Etiquette
As you are about to be struck by
an automobile, reach out quickly and,
seizing one of the rubber tires, tear
it from the rim. This will at least
give you an air cushion resting place.
Apologize humbly to the chauffeur,
gentle action that will possibly
save you from arrest. A wise form
of address is to praise the make and
speed of his machine.
Depart as gracefully as possible.
The most fashionable way is in an

Union Invited To Joiu

Mecklenburg and Cabarrus Baptist
Associations have united, under the
leadership of Rev. E. c. Snyder, in
forming singing associations and they
extend an invitation to every choir in
Union county to meet with them at
Sardis on the fifth Sunday in April
and become members of the associa-

The idea is to stimulate singing in

rlans are thoroughly under way, if
the organization should become un-
wieldy, the several counties will be
separately organized and the good
work continued.

Found the Ground Hog

Yesterday being grounding day a
great many people were wondering
if one were to be seen anywhere. Over
at Efrd's store, where time was
hanging heavily on the hands of the
clerks before the days trade opened
up, some one said that there was a
grounding down at Gulledge & Sni-
der's store. Everybody wanted to
see him, and down bunch of the
young men and young ladies went to
take a peep. When they got there
the boys at the store showed them
pan of sausage meat. Everybody
agreed that it was ground hog. But
no one would agree as to whom the
joke was on. The boys slipped off
to the newspaper office and said it
was on the girls. Pretty soon the
girls called up and said it was on
the boys. Others said it was on both.

When Hens Law Most

Mr.. John r. Helms of Wingate
who sold last year sl50.63 worth Of
eggs from 4S Buff Leghorn hens
furnishes the amount he realized each
month as follows: January, 5000;
February, Sl4.SS; March, $3.50;
April, S12.75; May Sl4.S0; June
S12.40; July, S940; August, $500;
September, 1925; October, $3.50; No
vember, $3.50 and December, $l3.45
From the above figures it would seem
that hens lay more during the month
of August than any other month in
the year and that thev almost go
