That a Ford automobile. while
supposed to be able to do most any
stunt. was never intended for use
as a plow was demonstrated on the
state road Saturday afternoon by
Frederick A. CHM. who was accom-
panied by Morgan j. King. two
well-known farmers OF Appoquini-
mink Hundred. near Townsend.
The aforesaid agricultural gentle
men had been in Wilmington, and
enroute for home began discussing
the merits OF the irrespective cars.
Kings car was home. but his friend
CHM did not hesitate to back up his
statements relative to the almost
human intelligence OF his car as a
Hill climber, and pointing "Lizzie's"
nose az the bank beside tke road
threw the gear into high.
Lizzie" endeavored to mount the
bank, and finding herself unequal to
the task buried her nose in the hill
side, lay on her side, kicked up her
heels in manner seldom seen ex-
cept in the movies. and remained
there until she cooled on and was
hauled home.
Neither OF the gentlemen hold the
car responsible for the mishap,
which may have been caused by de
fective steering apparatus. weather
conditions, or-something else.

woman, some kind Of dissatisfaction
would have ensued, different, OF

Now suppose that this woman is
freed by divorce to marry the di-

passionate romance. their love will
sink to the dead level OF which she
now complains

her children of a good father and in
exchange will have given them a

folly would be her enforced associa-

any outsiders easily could foretell

period Of scholastic advancement Of
from 1860 TO 1890;

Physiology. and Hygiene.
Expression subjects, the more re-

subject that the passage Of a law
forbidding any minister not con-

jltneys Of the town under the Public
Service Commission would stop the
present marriage mill.
DR., Anderson expressed his opinion
OF the "nondesoript ministers. who
are without churches" in no uncer-
tain terms. He spoke OF the jitney
drivers charging 50 and 81 for driv-

for twenty minutes and then secur-
ing marriage licenses for them and
