BENNETT

It's as difficult to stay at the top
as it is to get there. The REAL
hard work doesn't begin until man
establishes a high record that he is
expected to live up to.
Arnold Bennett, the writer, in a
year has turned out 5000 words
including 224 short stories, a,
novel, two serials and book Of
plays. This is only thousand
words a day, to be true, but it's
high-class matter. Writing real
stuff is more exhausting than hard
physical labor-in the long run.
And it's as much a business as
selling sausages or hardware.

MAGICIAN

Carl Hertz, vaudeville headlinor
in England, left an estate of two
million dollars. In As years of per
forming, his salary had totaled that
much and $3.50, 600 in addition. AT
the peak Of his career he was paid
$4,000 a week.
Carl was an American. Our pre-
ducers couldn't "see' him, so he
had to go abroad for his opppr-
tunity. Geography has lot to do
with success. No wonder, Ameri.
cans move so much from town to

Madison Square Garden. Ney York, June 3o.-Mssouris thirty six votes were recorded to McAdoo under the unit rule in the Democratic National Convention today after a fight in which Joseph J. shannon of Kansas City led a contest to relieve the dele gation from its instructions under the unit rule.
 Missouri, which had been challeng- ed, then came up for the poll at the convention.
 The poll of the Missouri delegation resulted in some votes of present" from delegates who had some reasons for not wanting to get on record at that time.
 The announcement of the polls showed twenty five for McAdoo. three voting. Chairman I'a,sh gave air. shannon five minutes to stete why the vote should not 20 to McAdoo, Under the unit rule. The Missouri delegation hurled boos at Mir. Shannon as he concluded. Frank H. Farris of Rolla, Mo, spoke for the McAdoo side of the argument, The question, Paris told the conven- ton, was one wholly for the state of Missouri and had no place in ma tional convention.
 We are committed to vote as s unit under our instructions passed without a dissenting vote in our state convention" said Farris. He read the resolution of the state convention providing for 1t.
 Chairman Walsh indicated he did not consider that the challenge could he sustained. Finally he ruled that the vote be recorded as a unit for Me Adoo.
 We choose this method of protest ing against the unit rule" he said, because it is not an expression of the people of our state. Mr, McAdoo and Mr. Reed were both defeated in our state. In this case he verdict is the pryerted expression Of the people who sent money into the state of Missouri for William c. McAdoo. They say they have gentemens agreement. A gentlemen's agreement never sells a state to democratic convention.

PORTER ON EXPRESS
 IN OHIO TORNADO
New Britain Man Has Thrilling Experience Aboard Train

Aboard a Pullman car in the midst of tornado was the experience which Maxwell Porter of this city went through last Saturday. Mir. Porter was returning from trip to Grand Rapids and Chicago, where he had purchased furniture for B. C. Porter X Sons. The Interstate Express, on which he was a. passenger, was speeding along be- tween Sandusky and Elyria, Ohio, late In the afternoon when the big storm of the weekend struck if.
 Blackness of night immediately des- cended upon the train, while the terri flc downpour flooded the tracks and forced the train to proceed very slow iy. Windows and doors proved no pro- lection against the beating rain, which forced it's way into the car in such a flood that the porters were kept busy sweeping it out. Brilliant white light ming illuminated the surroundings oc- casionally but at the other times Mr. Porter says it was too dark to see what was happening. During the flashes he could see on one side huge waves rushing across Lake Erie, while on the other side trees were helng bent double and torn up and destruc ton was general One Of the locomo- tives was put out Of commission and had to be replaced in Cleveland.
 Mir. Porter says that his train was barely ahead of the full force of the storm and passed through the stricken towns just before they were demoish ed, Beyond Cleveland the express pas sed out into the sunlight again, so that to the left Mir. Porter saw clear sky and to the right black clouds and sharp lightning.
 The passengers seemed to take the storm casually, Mir. Porter reports, but the train crew realized the seriousness of the storm. while he himself has no desire 10 repeat his experience.
