Manual labor hurts no one, and
any man who ever expects 20 hold

sible angle the conditions which the
laborer has to contend with.
Working with the men in the
shops and under the same condi-
tions as they do is the best. though
not the only way, to really learn
this.
Few men have ever amounted to
anything in this country who have
not done their share Of manual
labor" and it has never done harm
to any Of them.
Lots Of men fall into, or are
given, snap jobs" and may acquire
great wealth, but they certainly

I worked for eight months last

plant at Flint, Mich... and enjoyed
every bit of It. Sometimes the
work was hard; sometimes 1t was
not, but the men were q great
lunch to work with, and never
regretted the fact that took the
Job there.

HEALTH FIGURES
lnr InitcG prcssl

Washington, Aug. S.--Women with
their low-necked dresses and short
skirts live longer than men with their
heavy overcoats and underwear, the
Bureau of Census reported today.
The average life of the men in the
country is 5523 years as compared
with 57.4l for women. Despite the
walls OF reformers against the fast
and strenuous modern life, the aver
age longevity of men in 1920 was 3.75
years greater than in 1910, while, the
increase for women was even greater.
The governments figures prove
there is something to the old warning
that life in the big cities viii get You
sooner or later. The average lease
on life" in the principal cities is 81 G5
years for men and SAT- for women, as
compared with national average Of
3.6S years higher for men mad 2.64
years more for women.
As to health, there's nothing the
matter with Kansas" as people there
live longer than in any state, the av-
erage being 1913 for men and 60.S9
fer women. Wisconsin is second with
5S.77 years for males and G0.70 for
females.
OF the nations city dwcllers, Wash
ingtonians live the longest, the aver
age life in the capital city being 1888
for men and 1888 for women. Pitts
burgh is at the bottom of the list Of
cities, with an average life of 47.16
for males and 80 10 for females.
If you succeed in getting by all the
Catching periods of youth and live
to be 80, you've got good chance to
last another 34,93 years, if you're 4
man, and 36.12 years more if you're

Rules For Pedestrians

Pedestrians along country roads
and those who walk in the streets at
night in preference to using the side
walks can contribute materially to-
ward the reduction of automobile ac-
cidents by walking on the left side
Of the road, facing oncoming traffic,
according to Dia fl. Lewis, Acting
Executive Chairman of the American
Automobile Association.
Courtesy on the part of the au
tomobile driver demands the use of
dimmed lights at night" said Mr..
Lewis, 'and this factor, while it con-
tributes to the safety of passing mo-
torlsts, makes it exceedingly difficult
for the automobile driver to see a
pedestrian walking along the edge of
the road in the same direction the
car is travelling. This difficulty is in
creased if the pedestrian happens to
be wearing dark clothing. The result
is that the driver IS practically on top
Of the pedestrian before the latter
becomes visible"
Walking on the left hand side Of
the road Is just as good for the ped
estrian and enables him To see the
approaching automobile in time to
step aside if the motorist does not
see him in time TO swerve."
The pedestrian should remember
that the rules of the road require the
autoist to keep to the right and should
contribute to the factor Of safety by
keeping TO that side of the road which
best enables M to escape the on
coming car and especially the occa-
sional speed fiend or fliyyerboob' who
cares nothing for consequences and
speeds regardless Of the rights Of
others, for 1t has been truly said that
whether you were IN the right or not
does not matter after you are in the
hands Of the undertaken"

Original Indians Were
Game COnServatiOnistS

Richmond. Va. Aug. 7.-Holding
that the original Indian was a game
conservationist OF the first water,
who killed either for sustenance or to
protect his person from the wild life
around him, NJ. D. Hart, secretary Of
the State Department Of Game and
Inland Fisheries, delivered really
notable address before the recent an
nual convocation of the Pamunkey and
Chickahominy Indian Tribes, held
near Bradby's Wharf, in the county
of New Kent. Chief Cook, of the Pa
munkeys, and CHIEF Adkins, of the
Chickahominies, together with about
300 Braves from the two tribes, were
present. The Indians were addressed
in short impromptu talks by Col;
W. Mcdonald Lee, State Game and
Fish Commissioner, and by Parke p.
Deans. secretary to the Governor. The
address by Mr. Hart, however, which
was prepared, is said to have been
greatly enjoyed by the Red Men.
The original Indian said Mr..
Hart, twas a game conservationist OF
the first water. He needed no game
laws to keep him from wantonly
Strengthening the wild life around him.
He never drew his bow to kill any wild
creature in sport When he killed, it
was for some wise purpose, either for
sustenence or in defense of his person.
He went on his annual buffalo hunts
to procure his winters supply of meat
and clothing. He stopped killing when
his needs were supplied. His knowl-
edge of woodcraft was marvellous. He
could follow the track of wild animal
through the dry leaves Of the forest

that, since our State Game Depart

credit to himself and his two banks
He was one of the founders Of
the Phoenx Bank of Nansemond, or

was made president. The institu-

the depressed times, the Phoenix

In this builoing which above the

has worked for the past four years
having to give service, not to one
person, but to dozens-and the fact
that his resignation as caretaker OF
the American Bank and Trust
Company has been submitted tc

genuine regret throughout the
building.

at once a lesson and an incentive
to his race,

a perfect record for the past three
weeks according to reports received
by the Post Office Department. All
three divisions had 100 per cent per-
Torrance. This means that every
plane flew as scheduled and that
every flight was completed. There
were no crack ups" which in the Ian
guage of the air means that no plane
was damaged by bad landing and
forced to undergo repairs.
The reports were received from j..

Wheat threshing has been pro-

sections the yields are not coming
up TO expectations, although the
crop is much better than last year.
The condition of the tobacco is
excellent. There have been a few
reports Of wild fire" and many tea
considerable loss from this cause if
the wet weather continues. The
crop is much earlier than usual and
at this time appears to be the best
crop the State has had for several
years.
The early white potato crop in
Accomac county turned out better
than expected. Only few hundred
cars remain to be shipped, and rs
only 1865 cars were shipped up to
July %, compared with 27,3O3 cars
to the same date last year, the to-
tai production will rot equal the
crop produced last year. The late
crop is being planted now. Sweet
potatoes have been made excellent
growth.
Hay crops have been good and ow-
ing to the favorable season, cow
/ peas, soybeams, and millet are
! quite promising. Pastures are eX-
cellent in all parts of the State.
The peanut crop has been seri-
ously\ajured by wet weather. Fields
are very grassy and the plants have
made poor growth. The cotton crop
has also suffered from the excessive
rains, which have interfered with
cultivation and retarded fruiting.
All fruits have made excellent
growth. apples especially, are de-
veloping rapidly. Peaches are being
shipped from the commercial or
chards, and the crop is reported n
be Of fine quality.

A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE

Once, in a city by a river stood
a hill, To the people of the city 1t
was Just a hill--and always would
be. But the city was blessed; il
had dreamer. And the dreamer
had a dream. In that vision, he
saw the hill not merely a hill but
as the longing and motherly
breast of a shrine where white
marble pillars gleamed in sunlight
and grew magical under the moon,
rejecting the glory OF the great
and simple man whose life and
deeds hallow the atmosphere where
the shrine will stand. With these
visions came the will-to-do. So
slowly and painfully but surely
the dreamer builded through de.
LAYS and disappointnlentS, through
indifference and lack OF faith,
bithely climbing the mountains OF
pessimism, and repulSing the on
slaughtS of the tribe ''it-can't-be-
done;" soaring with sure faith
through the clouds OF dumb doubt
and foolish fear to the sun OF sue
