Local football fans are hoping that
before the season closes the Maysville
High School football team will meet
a team Of about its own size. The local
team has the grit and pep" and the
boys know the game but they lack the
beef" Can't We find team about
the weight of the locals for big
Thanksgiving game? We can all SO
out on the holiday and lend the boys
our support.
Now that Hallow Fen is over, all
attention will be turned TO plans for
Thanksgiving. Turkey. cranberries
and plum pudding are the first reQuis-
ties to a real Thanksgiving dinner. In
the other days there were other
things included but then what's the
use Of even thinking about it. 1t looks
very much like them days are gone
forever"
Speaking OF pre-volstead times: II
looks like quite a little bit of interest
has been stirred up in Ohio on the
question and its outcome in Novem-

Wonder if all this will be stirred up
In Kentucky again next year at the
state election. 1t makes 4 nice nasty

The clairvoyant, who has been max

GOT IDEA FOR CASH REGISTER
Original Maker Of Machines Copied
Device From Automatic Indicator
Used on Ocean Vessels.

The invention of the cash register
was due to one of those happy ac-
cidents of which only the alert mind
takes advantage. A business man
of Dayton, Ohio, named Jacob Ritty,
had store in good location In that
city, and it attracted many custom
ers. yet somehow 1t was not profit
able. He worried so much about
his lack of success that a vacation
became necessary, and he decided to
take trip to Europe. While on the
voyage, Mr.. Ritty one day visited the
ships engine room. His attention was
caught by the automatic indicator
which recorded the revolutions of the
propeller shaft. The idea occurred
to him: Why not devise a machine
to record the sales in a store? Hence
the cash register.
At the time of this invention John
II. Patterson owned n retail shop in
small mining town near Dayton. He
tried two of the machines-then of a
rather crude type-and was so pleased
with the results that he realized the
opportunities they offered. He bought
out the company that was making
them, and became Its president.

BUSINESS AND SOCIAL ASSET
Pleasant Laugh, Which Can Usually
Be Cultivated, Well Worth Trouble
Of Acquiring It

You can cultivate pleasant, con-
tagious and spontaneous laugh just as
well as you can cultivate good speak
ing voice. But you must work for it.
No doubt you hold an opinion OF
every one else's laugh but your own !;
and unless you have frank and an
alytical friend or famously pleasant
laugh, you may never have stopped to
consider how your voice sounds in
laughter. And yet it's part of your per-
sonality and you ought to know and
care.
A young business man who laughed
spontaneously and heartily and con-
tagiously confessed that he had culti-
waited 1t.
1--WE learned to laugh" he declared
"Once upon time / didn't laugh
easily, but l found many situations re-
lieved by good laugh at the right
moment. / find it mighty helpful
business and social asset. And at the
same time the mere act Of laughing
has made me more optimistic. So it
works well all around"
"Give grin at yourself in the mir
ror and see what other folks see when
you smile or laugh. If it isn't an ideal
picture, consider what you can do to
Improve 1t.
First Of all, you can of course keep
the teeth absolutely clean. They
ought to be brushed night and morn
ing. Then they can be Strengthened
and filed and generally fixed up by
the dentist. Yes, there will be dentists
bills, but you will be investing in a
good-looking smile. You buy hats and
wells and face powder to improve your
appearance, so why not buy a good
looking smile. Vale, in De-
signer.

BELLE

PELLE is one of the many feminine
names which began existence as
a contraction and gained sturdy indie
pendence until it became recognized
appellative and is bestowed without
reference to its prefix.
Since Belle signifies "onth of Baal,"
1t Is easily dlscernible that 1t is an
offspring of Isabelle. In the days
when Elizabeth of Hainault married
Philippe Auguste and suffered her
name to be changed to Isabelle by the
French, 1t is hardly likely that Belle
was used, either as an endearment or
a diminutive. But Isabelle became
very popular in royal circles and the
betrOthed Of Hughes de Lusignan, who
later married King John brought Isa-
belle to England.
1t was there that Belle came into
existence and into consequent vogue.
OF all the contractions Of Isabelle
Of which Nib, Ibbot and ID arc a few
examples-Belle proved the most pop.

Lopez Real Discoverer.

Francisco Lopez, the discoverer Of
gold in California, died In poverty,
and the place of his burial is un-
known Marshall who accidentally
discovered gold in the mill race at
Suffers Ford six years afterward, was
given $4,000 year by the state and
monument of brass was erected to
his memory. Sutter, who had nothing
to do with the discovery, and did not
own the land upon which his mill
stood, also was given pension. Lopez
Immediately reported his discovery to
his employers. Sutter and Marshall
kept the discovery secret until they
had taken possession of large tracts
of land, for which they gave the In
dlans almost nothing. Both Suffer
and Marshall knew that their claims
as first discoverers of gold were false.
They were Adventures. and were at
San Fernando in 1916 during one Of
the Mexican revolutions, and had
heard Of the gold fields in the San

Something to
Think Ab0ut
TURNING CORNERS
By F. II. WALKER

THE very ease and speed with
which you rush ahead, so agree
able while the road is smooth and
clear, make 1t difficult sometimes to
slow down and turn the corners in
safety.
A straight course is easy to follow,
but a devious way is hard and calls
for all your strength and finer judg-
ment In spite of your vaunted skill.
A few trifling words, a slip Of the
foot, shifting of the eye or broken
troth and you are destitute of cour-
age, In a perlous position from which
II may take years to extricate your
self
Friendships are irrevocably lost at
the corners where you must turn to
determine your future; where you
find that you must curtail expenses
and live simpler life with less pleas
ure and more work.
Turning corners dampens the spirits
of high-strung men and women and
often narrows their views to SO great
an extent that they become mere cor
hCi iouhSClS, VI hO uSS " lllClllSClNCS
or to the community in which they
exist.
The sunlight vistas of life have
been darkened by the gathering
clouds of adversely in which they un-
expectedy plunged as they turned a
sharp corner in an unfamiliar terri
tory.

And like thousands of others, they

bled in pride.
In an atmosphere that stiles their
ambition and fills their souls with re-
morse, they are like frightened chill
dren lost in the dark, afraid of the
shadows and unable to move.
Yesterday they would have laughed
at the plight of friend who made
an unfortunate turn at the corner; to
day, laughter and they are not on
speaking terms.
Only the brave and true and mer-
ciful can hope to turn the corners on
life's highway in security.
And If you will look into the lives
of such persons you will find that
they were early taught at good
mothers knee to put aside greed and
selfishness, to call men brothers, to
help the poor, to be charitable to the
fallen, and to practice in their deal
ings with others the golden rule, that
the corners might be turned without
calamity, even in the purpling twi-
light.

To Secure Clouds on Negative.

Amateur photographers are delight
ed to find, sometimes, that they have
natural clouds upon their negatives,
and they imagine that these have oc-
Cured by lucky chance. Really the
result is proof that they have made
a correct exposure.
In order to secure clouds on the
negative, 1t is necessary to remember
an old rule-"Expose for the shadows,
and the high-lights will take care of
themselves" In other words, one must
look for the darkest part of the pic
ture, and give that part sufficient ex-
p0sure. Usually, clouds are. lost be-
cause the sky, being bright, is much
more exposed than other parts of the
picture. On development the image
becomes dense there before the dark
er parts are strong enough. Hence
the sky will not print.
