den Dollars. His talk was extremely
entertaining and met with the hearty
approval Of his audience. With its
entertainment Mr.. COLLISION gave
much instruction along the lines of
dairying and beef raising for profit.
His illustrated contrast of the financi-
al progress made in dairying and beef
raising counties with the grain farm
ing counties was revelation to many
of his listeners. Through the courtesy
of Mr.. Collision and his paper, the
Gazette will, in the near future, pub
lish summary of his talk with one
or two of the charts with which he
illustrated it.
G.. w. Gold spoke briefly on the
method of procedure with the local

Mr.. Sheldon stated very definitely that
the campaign must be unprecedented

Farm Bureau is to cooperate and

5 to 4. The first half was entirely
Redwoods, Morgan being able to get
only few shots at the basket. The
ball was in Redwood's territory most
of the time but the home girls were
not able to make the baskets. Red
wood centers did very good work in
this half, breaking up every pass that
the Morgan guard made.
The last half of the game was the
real battle. Both teams were out for
a real victory and the half was a
pretty scrap. Morgan had most OF
the control of the ball but Redwood
guards kept them from shooting the
basket. Both teams were fighting
hard when the final whistle blew but
Redwood was on the short end of the
score. Captain Grace Melges and
Maurine Martin played especially
good ball and the team work of the
quint was excellent.
The girls next game will be with
Lamberton January 18th.

ing onto the back of the car and
skating. The Ford was slipping
around all over the lake and after
unsuccessful attempts to tip over, they
ran over thin ice. Comedy reigned
supreme. Billy went thru the wind
shield and lit on the hood, AL was
knocked out of wind on the steering
wheel and the fellows in the back
seat made a final leap, but missed
the solid ice Chuck followed the
Ford to the bottom but scrambled
out. Only about three inches of the
car could be seen above the broken
ice. Wet and cold, Al came to town
and got truck and five lengths of
chain. He waded out, breaking ice
with an ak as he went, and Castle
ducked under the bus and hooked on
the chain. With the truck and TWEEN
ty-five men pulling on the chains. the
Ford was finally pulled ashore.-Mor-

No Antique Rugs in Smyrna.

The antique rugs of Smyrna have en-
tirely disappeared. 1t Is said to be Inn
possible to find a rug in that country
that is more than twenty years old. or
course this fact is concealed from pros
pective buyers by various tricks which
make the rug look like one of ancient
origin, but the deception becomes APP
parent after short time. The rug
business of that country has been all
"shot up by the war and the prospects
are that good specimens Of Smyrna
rugs will soon be rare and valuable.
While one hears Oriental rugs referred
to generally as Turkish, the fact is
that the rugs of Turkey are the
coarsest and most Indifferent from
every standpoint. 1t was the Armen-
ians who did the best work In rug
weaving and next to these are the
Greeks.

Without the camel the hot deserts of

furnishes flesh and milk for food, and
his hair or wool furnishes material for

with water. On the chiefs table Is
cooked camel flesh. The herders wear
robes and turbans of brown camels-

tie Real Trouble.

Shays' rebellion in Massachusetts In
17S6-S7 arose from spirit of unrest
and lawlessness then generally on the
increase in the country, but more par
ticularly for special reasons for dis
satisfaction in Massachusetts. The
time was one of financial depression.
Five hundred or 600 malcontents
banded under command of Daniel

Sessions attempted to sit at worces-

an armed force, and no court could be
held.

much confusion, continuing their fight,
with many desertions, from town to
town. In the pursuit $50 were taken
and the rest dispersed. The rebels
continued to gather in small bands for
many months, but no large force again
appeared.
Clemency was shown to Shays and
his followers, but he had escaped to
Vermont and lived there as a fugitive
from justice even many months after
he had been pardoned. Shays later

William the Conqueror brought from

Second course: Venison, cranes,

and hens.
Third course: Spiced and seasoned
meat, with wine, red and white.
Fourth course: Pheasants, wood
cocks, partridges, larks, plovers.
Fifth course: Sweetbreads, white

often served. Among other foods a

and comb richly gilded. Carried into

custom to break the crust, vowing at
the same time to rescue some captive
lady from some mythical monster or
die though his vow, like the pie crust,
was made to be broken"
The pastries and loaves of bread
were not forgotten. Wine, ale and
beer were served. Three hours or
more were given over to the feast,
while testers, tumblers, jugglers and
