PARIS MEN FIGURE IN FATAL
AUTO COLLISION

A collision on the Lexington pike,
near Paris, Friday night between an
aueto operated by Paris men, and a
motorcycle with side car attach
ment, driven by two Lexington men,
resulted in the death of one and Sc
rious injuries to the other, of the
Lexington men. Victor Adams,
ythirty-five. garage proprietor, was
killed, and VIM. Jennings, thirty
three, Lexington barber, was seri-
ously injured. The Paris men
were John Clay and Robert Burnett.
Burnett, who was driving the ma
chine at the time the accident oc-
CURED, stated that it was unavoid-
able. He declared he was travelling
at a moderate rate of speed toward
Lexington as were Adams and Jen-
nings in the motorcycle and side car.
The automobile approached the
motorcycle to pass and Adams pull
ed to one side of the road. The
front part of the automobile, accord
ing to Burnett, cleared the motor
cycle and he was preparing to pull
into the center of the road again
when he felt a pull on his rear hub
cap. He Immediately pulled farther
to one side of the road and in doing
so lost control of the machine throw
ing it into the ditch and fence.
The motorcycle and side car turn
ed completely over and Adams and
Jennings were found lying on the
road. Both were unconscious.
Adams body was crushed in several
places.
Immediately after the accident
Clay and Burnett came to Licking
ton and reported the accident to
police headquarters. They were re-
leased on their own recognizance
after formal charge of manslaugh-
ter had been placed against them.
Ihey were formally arraigned Sat-
urday morning before County Judge
Doak and recognized to appear for
trial on Monday, April II, at ten
O'Clock.
Authorities who investigated the
accident said it appeared that the
right rear hub of the automobile
caught the rear wheel of the motor
cycle, turning the latter machine
over two or three times.
County Detective Frank Hall went
TO the scene early Saturday morn
ing and estimated that the automo-
bile left the road and ran into a
wire fence, more than 200 feet from
where the machines touched.
Mr.. Clay is son of Harry B CLAW
OF duncan avenue, and Mr.. Burnett
is son of Mr.. and Mrs. E. F. Bur.
nett, of Nineteenth street. They
keenly regret the accident and the
resultant consequences, but state i,
could not have been prevented O,
toreseen. They are still SUFFERING
from the nervous shock and strair
occasioned by the accident.

BEAUTIFUL SOCIAL FUNCTION
FOR CHARMING BRIDE-ELECT

CLARK entertained last InuTSOdy'
April 9Th, in compliment to their
cousin. Miss Margaret Ferguson,
whose marriage to. Mr.. Harvey Rog-
ers is to take place the last Of the
month.
AS the guests were ushered into
the room they could hardly belieye
their eyes. The rather gloomy
apartment known as the Masonic
Hall, had been metamorphosed.
Dainty white muslin curtains, a
mass of spring flowers, and twenty
four tables covered with exquisite
damask, glittering silver and glass,
and all the charming little con-
ceits that go to add the finishing
touches to a luncheon of this kind,
made it seem the work of fairy fing-
ers. On each table was a tall slen-
der blue basket tied with maline
the same shade holding a handful
of yellow jonquils. The place cards
were tiny little brides gowned COM
plete with bouquet and veil and the
space for the name made sort of
rest for the body to stand on.
The brides own table occupied
the center of the room. The cover
was of lace and the color scheme
carried out in every detail. A large
silver vase held the center piece of
Emperor jonquils> and the china had
the same lovely decoration. Six of
the brides young friends sat with
her.
AS soon as the guests were in
their places the luncheon was serv-
ed, and such a one as can only be
had in this beloved old Kentucky of
ours. We forget there had ever been
Herbert Hoover and that every wo-
man present had once signed a
conservation card" Ham, fruit
salad, cheese loaf, peas and cham
pignons, beaten biscuit, hot rolls,
creme de voaille, Nesselroade pud-
ding, individual cakes and coffee.
The ladies in line with Mrs. Judy
and Mrs. Clark were the guest of
honor and prospective bride, Miss
Margaret Ferguson, and her mother,
Mrs. John Stuart Roberts, the moth
er of the groom, Mrs. Louis Rogers,
Miss Anderson, of Georgetown, and
Mrs. Lowry Barton, of Cincinnati.
The fortunate ones, who held the
best scores at bridge, were, first
prize, Mrs. Garlic Wilmoth, silver
bon-bon dish. Mrs. Henry Clay
Herndon, from Georgetown, who was
Miss Hannah Ferguson, won second
prize, a silver bon2bon dish; third
prize, a long, slender perfume bot
tie, was won by Mrs. John Yerkes
and Mrs. Durand Whipple carried
off fourth prize, beautiful silver
pencil.
The honor guest, Miss Ferguson
was presented with an exquisite sill
yer vanity box.
The guests numbered nearly &
hundred, many of them being out
Of-town friends. Among them were
Mrs. Lowry Barton, Cincinnati

The value of dairy herd has been
proven to many thousands of farmers
since the prices of grains have been
down. Cheap feed means cheap milk
production. and milk means a weekly
or monthly check from the creamery
or milk distributing companies in the
cities.
There are two essentials TO profit

INDIANS USE OF FEATHERS
Have an Intense Religious Significance
for All Tribes, Being Considered
Tantamount to Prayer.


Feathers have an intense religious
significance for Indians. and are val
ued for this far more than for their
value as ornaments. To a Hopi a
feather Is tantamount to prayer,
and the use of one or two feathers in
his prayers is considered sufficient to
ensure a favorable reply.
When an Indian desires something
urgently he will tie a feather to a
stick and conceal it in a shrine which
he himself has constructed. This Is
considered extremely efficacious.
Small, fluffy feathers dangling from
the ceilings of huts by strings are
common sights. They represent pray
ers for trifles. Indians are always
careful to keep a stock of prayers or
feathers on hand, SO that they will
not be caught empty handed when an
occasion or prayer arises.

each row. This method takes the
strong light out of the cows eyes, and
permits the sunshine to strike the gut

healthful, as II kills germs. Over both
the feed and litter alleys are carrier
tracks, which save labor when the feed
is being carried TO the hangers and
the litter Is being removed The tracks
over the litter alleys run TO the
manure pile, shown at the rear and
one side of the barn.
Fresh air inlets are located at the
center OF the stable ceilings, and are
openings that may be seen just above
the foundation wall in the picture.
Inside. at the center OF the building. is
the foul air shaft that is connected
with the suction ventilator on the roof.
Thus is the foul air sucked out of
the stable and replaced by fresh air,
which comes in so that there is no
draft on the animals. The hangers
at the stall heads are continuous and
are built of concrete. They should
have slight pitch to drain at one
end, so that they may be hosed out
when cleaning is required. The stall
partitions are of steel, and are set into
the concrete when the floor is laid.

for the one than for the other.
At the last census-1920-less than
per cent of the dairy cows in the
United States were pure-breds. The
average milk production per COW was
under 1000 pounds. II is mighty

The commission form of city gov
eminent varies widely in the different
states. The characteristic feature Is
the combining Of all legislative and
executive powers in a single body, usu-
ally consisting of from three to seven
members. These members are elected
at large. The mayor, as a rule, is one
of the commission, but has no more
power than his associates, though be-
ing the official head of the city. The
administrative work of the commission
is divided into departments, each
headed by one commissioner. AS a
safeguard the commission form Of gov
eminent almost invariably includes ini.
tiative. referendum and recall.
