Spiders Wonderful Web

The first thing that a spider does
In weaving his web is to lay the
foundation line. He attaches a line
at the point of departure and
crawls along spinning it as he goes
and holding up the newly spun
thread by the claws of one Of his
hind feet until it reaches a consld
cradle length. He then draws in
the slack and makes it fast. The
spider then goes over the line sew
eral times to strengthen the foun-
dation, after which he spins the
other lines of the web. In the
case of lines of webs appearing
great distances apart the spider
emits thread, which is cut by the.
air current from its spinnerets un-
til it becomes entangled in the sur
rounding branches. This power Of
emitting silk some little distance.
and allowing the wind to draw it
out is frequently exercised in the.
early life Of many spiders.

vive dropping spirits in Europe

version of feeling, which was i'm

er significance lies in the fact,
however, that the President, by
neat stroke of diplomacy, has
virtually put it up to Europe so

This is exactly as it should be
and the result should have very
salutary effect on sentiment in
the United States as we'll as in
Europe. For years Uncle Sam
has been belabored and criticized
by our internationalists at home
and the politicians abroad because
he has not done something" Just
what he was to do, according to
the views of these critics, ranged
all the way from cancelling the
war debts to abolishing the tariff
and throwing open the markets of
America to cheap labor of Europe.

President Hoover has now given
the nations of Europe a splendid
opportunity to prove that they
want to help themselves and to
pull out of their difficulties. If
they cooperate and show the prop
er spirit of giving and taking they
can pull out. But if they miss the
opportunity which Uncle Sam has
given them and decide to sink fur
ther into the mire they will never
get similar chance. The Amer
lean people will become convinced
that they are not sincere, that they
put politics above cooperation,
and their international friends on
this side of the Atlantic will be
silenced forever.

mothers, even their mothers. often
had to abandon their plans for
making their favorite cake for the
church sale because they did not
have any sour milk on hand and
there was no time to sour it.
Today the modern housewife
makes a better cake by souring
the milk in a jiffy-she adds a
tablespoon of vinegar to a cupful
or evaporated milk. Which all
brings us to the discussion of this
indispensable form of milk for
baking. 1t gives an excellent flavor
and produces fine texture in YOUR

There can be little doubt that
We are on the threshold of sweep
ing changes in the European stu
alton. Whether they will be chan
ges for the better or worse depends
now on the nations of Europe and
the degree of cooperation they
can maintain among themselves.
Uncle Sam has made the first
move in seeking the twelve mon-
tbs postponement of debt and rep
afatlons payments. He cannot
help Europe further unless Europe
decides first to tighten its belt, to
retrench all along the line, and to
seek cooperation among the var
lous nations of the continent.
The Carbon County news., 1931-07-09

The criticism of Uncle Sam has
been all the more violent since
the worldwide depression, for
which of course he was not respon-
sible. The Young Plan served to
steady international conditions for
a time, but the coming of the de-
preston and the fall in prices has
so changed international values
that the world was faced with a
collapse of German credit growing
out of the reparations payments.

At this time, when people were
beginning to fear gravely for the
immediate future of Central Eu-
rope, and for the devastating eff
fects a collapse there would have
on the rest of the world, President
Hoover made the move for a years
postponement of debt payment,
which completely changed the pic
ture, from a psychological stand
point at least. And the President
has put it up to Europe to follow
suit He has made the first
move and can do no more unless
the nations of Europe enter whole
heartedly into the scheme of res
toring confidence and prosperity.

State Department Denies Restating

BY the Associated Press.
The American Government has been
in frequent communication with its
diplomatic representatives in Europe re-
garding the relief of Germany from
some of her war reparations payments
AS indicated by the communique
signed by Premier Laval and President
Hoover on the French StateSman's re-
cent visit, the United States believes
Germany should take advantage of her
opportunity under the Young plan to
apply for a committee of experts to
investigate her capacity to pay, with a
view to revision.

TRIPLE CONVICTION
INSTRUCTION ASKED
Lives of Three Found Guilty
of Killing Dry Agent
Hang on Ruling.

The District Court of Appeals asked
the United States Supreme Court today
for instructions as to whether the con-
viction Of John Borum, John Logan
and Milton Guy, convicted of murder
ing Lamar w. York, prohibition
agent, on April IL. 1880, can stand.
They were indicted on four counts,
the first three charging each separately
with firing the pistol which caused
York's death, and the fourth charging
one of them, without naming him, with
firing the pistol.
Justice Adkins at the trial in the Dis
trict Supreme Court instructed the jury
that if it found eny one Of the three
defendants individually had fired the
shot, it should bring in verdict Ct
guilty under the separate court charging
that defendant with murder, but should
it be unable to identify who fired the
shot, but concluded that one of them
had done so, it should bring in verdict
of guilty under the fourth count, charg-
ing collectively of murder and report
not guilty on the first three counts.
The jury reported guilty on the
fourth count and not guilty on the
to be electrocuted on the fifteenth of
January last.
with this statement of the facts, the
District Court OF Appeals asked the
highest court to instruct it whether the
judgement of the District Supreme
Court, based on the conviction Of the
defendants on the fourth count OF the
Indictment, could be sustained in view
of the acquittal of each of them on
the charge OF murder as contained in
the first three counts.
Surprised Men With Rum.
York was killed after he had fol-
lowed two colored men with load of
LIQUOR into an alley at First and P
streets. He surprised them in the act
of unloading their liquor and the men
ran. For about 20 minutes he sounded
the horn of the car to attract the at
tention of police. A large crowd
gathered in the alley, and one of the
men who brought the liquor in slipped
back and shot the prohibition agent
before the latter could draw his gun in
York lived at 1874 c street north
