Agricultural
/ News Notes
All Club News

From farm homes in every county
in Ohio this year 24,595 boys and
girls have enrolled in the ~4-H clubs
fosteled by the agricultural college
extension service at the Ohio State
University. This years total is g.
745 more than last years, and so Is
greater than any year in the history
of these clubs in Ohio. In Morgan
county this years enrolment is 195
club members. Wood county leads
the state with an enrolment of 704 ,
Butler county is second with 678,
and Washington county is third with
599 boys and girls. Every club
member must complete an appointed
task by the end of the summer, such
as raising piss, calves, sheep or
chickens successfully and economi-
cally, or mastering, to some extent,
the art of sewing or of cooking. In
all. ? projects are available. Eleven
distinct communities of Morgan
county support two sheep clubs, six
food clubs and nine clothing clubs.
The enrolment is growing surely
and conseryatively. 1t is too bad
that not more of the communities
arc availing themselves of the All
club work for the boys and the
girls. True, it means effort on the
part of the boys and girls and their
community, but it is being done and
the work is growing stronger. 1t is
too late to start work for this year.
but now is the time to start the
foundation for next year.

ly important that every motor We
hicle owner familiarize himself inn
mediately with what he has to do.
Under the provisions of this law,
the entire system of license distribu-
tion will be changed and unless mo-
torists equip themselves win doou-
mvnts and information required un-
der the new law, thousands of them
will lie deprived OF their tags and
consequently their right to drive
their cars.
In order that car owners may be
acquainted with all Of these require
ments. the o, S. A. A. has completed
an analysis of the law and issues the
following list of instructions:
/. Bring copy of the bill Of
sale containing the file number and
stamp OF the clerk of the courts,
with whom the original must be filed
Immediately after car is purchas-
ed.
9 If the car was purchased be-
fore the preceding tax listing day,
affidavit must be made showing that
the car was listed for personal prop
erty tax.
In order to answer the questions
contained on license application, it
is necessary to have the following
information.
i. The name, business address,
residence address and taxing dis
trict of the owner. By taxing dis
trict it meant the village or city in
which the owner resides.
2. The make of car for which
the license is being obtained, the
horsepower of the motor, the motor
or engine number, number of cylin-
ders. serial or factory number, year
built, motive power, type and cylln-
der bore. This information has been
required under the present system.
New information to be furnished
includes:
/. The name of the state in
which the car was registered last
year.
9 The old license number.
8 Whether the car was purchas-
ed as a new or used one.
4. The date of purchase.
5. Whether or not a bill Of sale
was filed with the clerk of courts,
and the file number of such bill of
sale or sworn statement.
o.
such bill of sale or sworn statement
was filed.
Z. Whether or not the vehicle
was owned on the preceding tax list
ing day
s. If so, has the vehicle been
listed for taxation as personal prop
erty by the present owner.
The application must be signed
and sworn to in the presence of
notary public.

James E. Watson. United States
senator and politician from Indiana.
declares it is impossible to eliminate
politics from prohibition enforce
mert. Gen. Lincoln G. Andrews,
head Of the federal enforcement ma
chinery says politics will be elimi-
mated Watson does the talking
Andrews says nothing, but plans.
If Senator Watson proves what he
says, that politics cannot be rooted
out Of the enforcement process, it
will be because politicians make it's
elimination impossible. 1t is posi-
BILE to read into Watson's statement
something more than a prophecy.
The senator might with propriety be
asked whethes he will use his own
great influence to keep politics and
enforcement apart.
The pubic will believe it some
thing more than a coincidence that
Mr. Watson's opinion on this point
agrees exactly with that of G. Bas-
com Slemp, former private secretary
to President Coolidge. Slemp, too,
thinks politics and enforcement will
continue their present partnership.
Slemp has been known as the chief
distributor of federal patronage
south Of the old Mason and Dixon
line. As a patronage expert Watson
himself has had long experience and
no little success.
Politicians are naturally opposed
/ to Andrews plan for establishing
/ prohibition enforcement on merit
basis. 1t curtails their home i'm
/ portance. Without patronage to dis
/ tribute Mr. Watson would be of less
consequence in Indiana, though his
usefulness as a member of congress
would be increased. Without pat
ronage C.. Bascom Slemp would be
merely former member of the
! house and former secretary to the
! president.
So the politicians line up for bat
tie against Gen. Andrews proposal
to take.the bunk out of enforcement.
The Watsons and the Slemps and all
the rest of them unite in chorus "It
can't be done" Well, perhaps 1t
cannot; but if the program fails 1t
will be due not to Andrews Or the
real friends of prohibition but to the
! WatsOns and the Slemps.
The task Of Andrews is not unlike
! that of Gen. Smedley ID. Butler, dl-
rector of public safety in Phlladel-
Lhia. Aside from Buffers penchant
for Dawes-like fighting epigrams the
two men appear not unlike. An
drews is a West Point man of long
experience in the army. Butler is a
maane corps graduate. Both are
disciplinarians, accustomed to fixing
] their eyes on a goal and trampling
y dowa all difficulties to reach it.
Crime and politics were old-time
partners in Philadelphia when
Mayor Kendrick, himself product
of machine politics, asked Butler to
clean up the big city. Things began
to happen Crooked politics walled
like lost soul There was serious
question whether politics or Butler

uty license commissioners not to IS
sue a license tag, duplicate certlfl-
cate or duplicate license tag unless
all of the requirements OF the la"
are complied with.
Owners OF passenger cars are also
required to pay the full fee for their
tags during the remainder OF the
wear. No quarterly reduction will
be allowed except to truck owners.
who pay a weight tax in addition to
the horsepower fee.
The new system will undoubtedly
slow up distribution and cause much
delay unless applicants come pre-
pared to answer all of these ques
tions.
The new process of distribution
also will constitute drain on the
treasures of automobile clubs that
issue tags. 1t is expected, however
to reduce automobile thefts in view
of the fact that original bills of sale,
with the county clerks stamp and
file number on them, must be pro
duced before license is issued.
Motorists are urged by the 0. S.
A. A. to obtain certificate from
the county clerk which he will issue
for 25 cents, stating that the bill of
sale for their car has been filed. This
will eliminate the carrying of bills
of sale and will serve as proof OF
ownership of car in case that own
ership is questioned on the high
ways.
The directors of most automobile
cluLs have decided to continue the
issuing of tags during the present
season, despite the time aud trouble
brought on by the new regulations.
This action was taken because there
is no other machinery in many coun-
ties that is adequate to distribute
the TAGS efficiently. The clubs must
continue this service in many cases
if motorists are to receive Their TAGS
within reasonable period of time.
TIE new law provides service
fee OF fifteen cents to be collected by
the commissioner or deputy OF mo-
tor vehicles This is III view OF the
extra expense for notary fees ana
other services that the new pro
cedure has necessitated. However,
have been made by
some Of the clubs whereby club
members Will receive their licenses
without cGarge, as has heretofore
been the practice. Motorists who
are not members of the club will re-
cefye the same service but i'll some

Morgan couny Democrat Mcconne thursday July

While the law was drafted princi
pally to curb automobile thefts. the
Legislators apparently overlooked
he fact that this law win make it
far more difficult to obtain tags thaa
t has been in the past.
The new law desisnates that all
license fees be turned over to the
county auditor instead of the secre-
tary of state. as has been the former
practice. The county auditor will
distribute the county's share among
he various taxing districts and will
send the remainder TO the state.

CHAPTER TX. (Continued)

Alter while her hand rose to his
face and stroked it softly, then she
drew herself away from him and
with wan smile upon her lips, said ::
The wind has made iool OF me-
mo, no!' he cried forcefully.
You asked me what l think of
YOU Well. now you know"
Still smiling, she shook her head
slowly. then she told him, Come! l

But | want to talk to you. l
have SO much to say"
What is there TO talk about to-
night? Hark!" They could feel,
rather than hear. the first warnings
of the coming downpour, SO hand
IN hand they walked up the gravelly
beach and into the fringe of the for
est where glowcd the dull illumina-
ton from lamplit canvas walls.
When they paused before the Coun-
tess tent Pierce once more embodied
her in his arms and sheltered her
from the boisterous breath of the
night. His emotions were in SINH
lar tumult, but as yet he could not
voice them, he could merely stam-
mer:
You have never told me your
name"
"Hilda."
"May I-call you that7"
She nodded. "Yes-whcn we are
alone. Hilda Halberg, that was my
name
"Hildal Hilda-Phillips." Pierce
tried the sound curiously. The
Countess drew back abruptly with a
shiver; then. in answer to his quick
concern, said:
IL think I'm cold"
He undertook to clasp her closer,
but she held him off, murmuring:
Let it be Hilda Halberg for to-
night. Let's not think Of Let's
not think at all Hilda-bride OF
the storm. There's tempest in my
blood. and who can think with a
tempest ragingE
She raised her face and kissed
him upon the lips, then, disengaging
herself once more from his hungry
arms, she stepped inside her shelter.
The last he saw of her was her lu-
miuous smile framed against the
black background; then she let the
tent-Ay fall.
AS Phillips turned away big rain
drops began to drum upon the near
by tent roofs, the spruce-tops over
head bent low, limbs threshed as
the gusty night win beat upon them.
But he heard none OF it, felt none
Df it, for in his ears rang the music
of the spheres and on his face lin
gered the warmth of womans lips,
the first love kiss that he had ever
known.
Tom Linton reused himself from
a chilly doze to find that the rain
had come at last 1t was roaring
night; his tent was bellied in by the
force of the wind, and the raindrops
beat upon it with the force OF buck
shot. Through the entrance slit,
through the open stovepipe hole, the
gale poured, bringing dampness
with it and rendering the interior as
draughty as a corn-crib. Rolling
himself more tightly i'll his blankets,
Linton addressed the darkness
through chattering teeth.

"Darned old fool! This'll teach

He strained his cars for sounds OF
Jerry. but could hear nothing above
the Stating of wet canvas, the tat
too Of drops, and the roar of wind
in the tree-tops. After the first vjo-
lence of the squall had passed he
fancied he could hear his former
partner stirring, SO he arose and
peered out into the night. At first
he could see nothing, but in time he
,dimly made out Jerry struggling
with his tarpaulin. Evidently the
fly had blown down, or up, and its
owner was restretching it. Linton
Rrinned. That would drench Ahc
Old dodo to the skin and he'd soon
be around, begging shelter.
"But l won't let him in, not it he
drowns," Tom Inuttered, harshly.
He recalled one of Jerry's gibes at
the saw-pit. particularly unteeling,
nay, downright venomous insult
which had rankled steadily. ever
since. His former friend had seen
fit to ridicule honest perspiration
and to pretend to mistake 1t. tor
raindrops. That remark had been
utterly uncalled for and it had be-
trayed wanton malice, Iaalevo-
lent desire to wound; we'll, here was
a chance to even the score. when
Jerry came dripping to the tent
door, Tom decided he would poke
his head out into the deluge and
then cry in evident astonishment: j:
"Why, Jerry, you've been working.
haven't you? You're all sweaty!'
/, Mr.. Linton, eiggled out loud. That
would be refinement of sarcasm;
that would be a get-baek Of the fin.
