Finds Husbands Will
Years After His Death

Bloomburg, Pa.-The will of
Charles Lockard, of Berwick, who
died seven years ago, was probat-
ed recently, having been found
lately by his widow in an old note
book. She had taken out letters
of administration following his
death, but, under the will, instead
of only a widows interest, she
receives the entire estate.
The will, written the day before
her husband was fatally stricken,
was unsigned, but was admitted
to probate when two neighbors at
tested to the handwriting as being
that of Lockard.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

NOEL SHANNON went out into
IN the grounds and walked about
in the early sunshine.
There was no pity in his heart for
the man lying stricken in that small
hospital. 1t was only the working Of
fate. After ell the hand Of justice
though It may be delayed, falls as a
general rule at the right moment.
He rather hoped that both Mrs
Northwood and Pauline would sleep
late, but he did not think this was
possible, and: as a matter Of fact: as
ne was walking further into the
depths OF the garden, he heard his
name called, and turning round, he
found himself face to face with
Mrs. Creswold.
As she looked at him, her quick in.
telligence read that he had something
to tell her.
You have some news?" she said.
He nodded his head. and he gave
her the gist Of the message which
had been telephoned through.
Stricken with paralysis? said
Pauline Creswold. She s~huddered.
What a dreadful fate! Why. If
had been asked to describe Julian
Emerson, | should have said he was
a giant OF physical strength and
health"

Ed Howe, the sage of Potato Hill,
can hardly be accused of being a
strict rellgionist, and yet in his home

discovered chat doing right is one OF

If any boy or girl is wnocking about
seeking some secret of success, none
better can be offered than strict in
tegrity.
To be just and upright in all
things may occasionally get you into
difficulty, but as a rule and in the
long run it pays.
A man who keeps his hands clean
and his heart right is always prepared
for any attack, and os it has been
roughly expressed, "He can look any

1t may be bromide, nevertheless, it
is true that system wins success. The
difference between the hurriers and
the people who really accomplish big
things and hold to youth and beauty
is in the system established in the lat
ter's lives. Every big woman who
has reached success has done it by
conserving her energy for the impor-
tant things, wasting nothing oa fruit
less rushing about. Not that she eX-
cIudes play. No indeed, she provides
for that as a necessar ypart of her
upkeep.
Begin your day the night before by
getting full quota of sleep. Get ur

time for the observance ON health ant
beauty rules; eating slowly, for one
thing, relaxing the muscles OF the
ewes and the body occasionally during
the course of days work, brushing
the hair night and morning-all OF
which are very necessary in keeping
alive the spirit of youth.

Which Type of Woman are You?

Their are many varieties of woman,
to be sure. But there are two out
standing types with which are are con-
cerned today. The one who is calm,
poised and efficiently conducting the
duties to which she has been assigned,
and the other harried, rushing futile
ly about, accomplishing little more
than wrinkles with her poor system
of management.
Invariably the woman who has no
sort of a system for her work is the
woman who finds her days so taken
up with work that she has no time
for anything else-not minute to
read or to play. She is the woman
too, who is cross and irritable and so
worn out by the time night comes
that she is too tired to do anything
but 90 to bed. Naturally her looks
must suffer.
Tell the average woman that you
have heard of new cearm that will
erase from her face all the lines OF
worry, and you'll never know a MN
utes rest until you have told her
where it might be obtained. But tell
a tired. nagging woman that she can
prevent tiny lines from creeping into
her face by. adopting system for her

GRAPEFRUIT TO ENGLAND

Florida's first consignment Of
canned grape fruit for England has
been shipped from Jacksonville, ac-
cording to advices received by the
freight traffic department of the At
lanta, Birmingham and Coast railroad
in Atlanta.
The shipment consisted of 1900
cases of canned grapefruit. A Jack
sonville firm of commission brokers
acted as agents for New York firm
house, importers of Oriental food
products, which has five grapefruit
Gamers in various parts of southern
Florida.
The English shipment, advices state
is an expension into international
trade channels of a commodity thai
has already become popular through
out the United States and Canada and
which has been received with acclaim
in California where Florida grape
fruit is said to be superior to the
native California product.
The Jacksonville commission brok-
ers are quoted here as saying that
large new markets have been opened
by the successful canning Of grape
fruit and that Florida packers expect
before long to have their product in
every principal market in the world

In q brochure recently got out at
Antioch College, Ohio, reference is
made to the custom of the old-time
Shakers, who general observed the
laws of Christian brotherhood, of
sending their most unscrupulous
members out into the world to do
their trading. Hence originated the
saying that the Shakers always sent
the devil to market.
The implication is that while Chris
tian living and principles were suita-
BILE for ordinary affairs and in family
life, they were not suitable for the
outside world There you had to
fight the devil with fire and deal un-
scrupolously with unscrupulous peo-
pie.
A very common idea is that those
people get along best in this world
who do not strictly adhere to the NOR
al law. You have to be crooked
enough to get along and yet not
crooked enough to fall afoul of the
law.
Those who are old and experienced
in this worlds dealing know the falla-
cy of this reasoning.
The fact is that it pays to be honest

NEWS OF ATLANTA, STATE AND SOUTHEAST

Atlanta, Ga.-A prosperity that can
stand the test of bumper crop of a
country's greatest farm product and
the demoralizing prices that such a
crop caused, must be substantial
type of prosperity, agricultural lead
ers pointed out here today. Such is
the prosperity that prevails generally
through the South, it was asserted.
Here and there may me heard dis
cordant notes, the agricultural lead
ers claim. In some sections time have
been hard and still are hard, they said,
Some men have not been able to share
the general prosperity that their
neighbors have shared, and some sec
tions would like to see times better
than they are, it was shown. Taken
as whole, however, Georgia farm
leaders declare that the South doubt
less is in better shape financially and
in a business way than any other part
of the nation.
"The South is prosperous and will
continue to be prosperous" says the
Albany Herald. "Its natural advar-
ages are great-so great that their
influence cannot be set aside. The
sections resources can be drawn up
on indefinitely, provided, of course,
they are intelligently conserved"
Should Utilize Resources
Commenting on the Georgia pa
per's utterances, Harry NJ. Ayres, edi-
tor of the Admission, Ala, Star, de-
clares that the South will continue
to prosper and continue to grew in
industry and commerce "only as its
resources are utilized by it's own peo-
pie as well as by the people Of the
world"
The Alabama editor says further
that the South's prosperity will con-
tinue and will increase more rapidly
and more substantially if its agricul-
tural development is varied and, as
he asserts, dependence is no longer
put upon one crop"
at will be more substantial pros
perity if industries are encouraged
to utilize the raw materials and nat
ural resources and it will oe great
er South if our people all have faith
in it and enthusiastically work for
it," said the editor.

WORKS SAME FARM FOR
FIFTY WEARS

After working the same farm and
living in the same house for fifty
years, j. W. Hudgins, DeKalb coun-
ty farmer, says that farming is less
laborious and more profitable than
than he has ever seen it before in his
lifetime
"When l was a young man, my ia
ther, my brother and myself, all work
ing together, did not make as much as
I make now by my own efforts" said
Mr.. Hudgins in reminiscent mood
when he came to Decatur, a suburb
of Atlanta, from his farm near Mid
way church. "Then we used scooter
plows and spent about three times as
long blowing a spot as I do now.
There are better tools today of course
than we could get when was boy"
Low-priced cotton, or the failure of
a cotton crop, has no fears for the
aged tiller f the soil, as he indicat-
ed.
"When 1 worked with my father
we made some fifteen bales of cotton
each year." Mr.. Hudgins said. "Last
year made only one bale, but I rails
ed other crops and was better off at
the close of the year than when we
made so much cotton. In fact my
cotton crop now is but small part
of my income"
Mr.. Hudgins declared that if the
farmers of Georgia and the South
raised all the things they need to eat
and to feed their live stock they
would not need much money.
"The farmer who sticks to business
and takes advantage of the many
modern labor-saving devices should
make better living and make it with
more ease than ever before in the his
tory of farming" he said.
