We have been accustomed to think
of Japan as a tiny crowded is
land whose dense population was
forced to overflow to broader lands.
II seems, however that this picture is
not entirely true.
In describing Little known
NoI thern Japan" in the Century,
| Harry A. Franck, noted author and
slnbe- trctter says:
My impression that Japan is a
little country in extent somewhat
evaporated during visit to the

kaido. the large island Just north Of

tween whitened rival ramparts which

coasts
There are signs that the govern
nent is doing it's best to turn Hok-
kaiue into a cleared and settled land.
Perhaps of all the obstacles the peo-
pie set against its laborious effort to
edualize more nearly the density OF
population of this north island with
the rest of the empire, their dread
of battling with the rigorous climate
stands first. The man of Japan is
not on the whole adaptable. He

as hanger-on, as shopkeeper or

the rude labor of reducing the primi-

Mems Auxiliary Methodist
Church Holds Regular Meeting

Inc Mems Auxiliary of the Me-
thodist church held it's regular
monthly meeting and supper in the
church vestry last evening, The
supper consisted of oyster stew
pickles, doughnuts and coffee AT
ter the supper the regular business
ious committee reports were heard
1t was voted to make the Decem-
Ter meeting a Father and Son
meeting and committee of three
was appointed to carry out the
plans.
The principal speaker of the eve
ming was w. w. Quinton, agent fol
the Lockwood company in Water
vile. The first part of his talk was
prompted by the agitation over the
4S hour question. He quoted the
words of Il prominent northern cot
ton manufacturer that local and
state legislation is making it hard
for the New England mills. Com
northern mills, but they do not want
the northern employees in the south
They fear the labor propaganda
which y northern workers would
bring south with them as it is said
that the American Federation oil
Labor is at the present time trying
to organize the opera tives in the
south. Furthermore, Mr.. Quinton
gave the words of a man high in
southern mill circles, who said that
while wage rates We're lower in the
south. the southern labor was equal
to that in the north.
Mr.. Quinton then read letter
received by the, Lockwood company

Commerce of Cedartown. Ga.

pany every inducement to move its
mill to that town. The letter praises
the southern community and de-
Scribcs its many conveniences. Mr.
Quinton said. "The Lockwood COM
pany will do business in Maine un-
til conditions are made such that
they cannot continue
Speaking of the cotton shortage, he
stated that there were $4,000 00C
acres of cotton planted this year
This yields 147 pounds to the acre
The visible supply this year is g.
36S.991 bales of cotton while that
two years ago was 6.3SS,710 bales
With this shortage there is not cot
= ton enough to go around
In the latter part of his talk the
speaker told the story of the manu-.
facture of cotton cloth. Beginning
with the bale of cotton he traced
the process of its manufacture, steI
by step. from the time when 1t is
brought to the mill until the cotton
comes cut as the finished product.

American Popcorn In Spain

Old Spanish customs and tastes
are succumbing to the assaults of
Yankee statesmen. Ford cars have
endorsed the caballero and are
rafting through Seville and over the
highest peaks of the Pyrenees.
The Castillian now sits down to a
breakfast of American corn flakes,
and soon people at the street corners
of Spanish cities and the crowded
throngs at the bull fights win be
treated to popcorn. That is, If the
plans of a prominent business man
in Vigo succeed.
He has just received an American
popcorn vending machine, without
doubt the first one to be seen in
Spain.
The machine arrived without any
popcorn. which is unknown in Spain
and the merchant now wants to buy
small trial order of corn with
which to start business.
FOSSILS of the tiger have been
found with the mammoth within the
limits Of the Arctic circle.
