PARIS COPS KISS HALTS

Paris.-A kiss that para].yzed
traffic in the heart of the down
town section of Paris was admlinis-
tered by a petite Parisienne to a
very stern looking "cop" dire ting
vehicles and pedestrians in the
square in front of the Opera.
The charming lady, in a pr city
frock and a perky hat, started. out
as if jay-walk, heading directly for
the minion of the law.
When she reached her DIES tina-
ton, she rose on tiptoe, smiled and
puckered her pink lips. Traffic
halted, the copper stopped and kiss
ed the lady on both cheeks, after
which she beamed broadly and pro-
ceeded diagonally to the op,o ositt
curb. The hero of the episode
blew a loud blast on his traffic
whistle, drew his face into s;terr
lines and yelled out, "Get a O 1ovt
on there; hurry up!"

her excellence with a racquet to the
excellent condition she maintains.
She isn't an unusually hard
trainer. Being moderate in all
things and regularly following a
common-sense program of living,
she never has to subject herself to
an arduous training grind"
In her eating, for instance, she
is by no means a faddist. She eats
pretty much what anyone who
wants to keep fit would choose.

True to her native California,
she begins her morning meal by
drinking an extra large glass of
orange juice. She then has two
soft-boiled eggs, several strips of
crisp bacon, buttered toast and
drinks a hot cereal beverage. Like
many famous athletes she takes
no chances with coffee and other
stimulating drinks.
For lunch she eats lamb chops
and vegetables in small quantities.
Dinner is heartier. soup, entree,
vegetables, salad, and dessert.
Sensible, isn't she?. Which re-
minds me-there's another charac-

State Has New Source
Wealth In Tale Deposits

Science is constantly adding to
the value of North Carolina's great
variety of minerals, particularly in
the cast of new process which are
creating demands for materials
hitherto not used, State Gealogist
H. J. Bryson asserted in summarize
ing latest developments in the min
eral field.
One of the most important deve-
lopments in recent years, he said, is
the use of tale in the manufacture
of battery boxes. since there are
approximately $4,000, 900 of those
containers manufactured annually
and since tale is said to be the only
suitable material obtainable at the
price, it is enthusiastic over the
prospects for wider markets.
"Talc produced from mines in
Cherokee county ranks among the
best in America" the state geolo-
gist declared. producers in that
section say it ranks with the .Fren-
Oh and Italian tales. This tale Is es-
pecially suitable for the cosmetic
trade. The pyrophyllite, a variety
Of tale, deposits of Moore county
are the only commercial deposits of
this mineral so far known i'm the
United States.
"Olivene deposits of eastern
United States reach their maximum
development in North Carolina.
This material is being used for GER
tain refractory purposes wich may
lead to a large production. This
year about IS carloads have been
shipped out of the state for expert
mental purposes. Reports from
those making the tests reveal that
it has certain properties that will
make it a valuable mineral i'm the
future. The deposits in this state
are probably the largest in eastern
United States.

rHE PUBLIC should be
prudent in seeking relief from
pain. Take nothing which does
not have the approval of the
medical profession.
BAYER ASPIRIN will never
do you any harm, and almost
always brings the desired relief.
But remember that the high
medical endorsement given
Bayer Aspirin does not apply to
all tablets for relief of pain.
THE DOCTOR is careful to
specify Baycr Aspirin for these
important reasons:
1t has no injurious ingredients.
No coarse particles to initiate
throat or stomach. Nothing to
upset the system. Not even any
d~isagreeable taste. The Bayer
process insures a pure. uniform
product.
INSIST on the tablet you
know to be safe. And the one
that has speed. Bayer tablets
dissolve so quickly, you get
immediate relief from your
headache, neuralgia, or other
pain.

Gov. Proclai1ns
Fire Prevention
Week Oct, 9-l2.

1t is my firm belief that fire
prevention should be accepted as
a major civic duty by every good
citizen of the state. During the
year 1881, two hundred and four
cen North Carolinians lost their
lives by fire. In addition, during
the same year fire destroyed proper
ty valued in excess of thirteen mil
lion dollars. This is the direct
loss; it is destruction of lives and
property.
THEREFORE, in compliance
with Section $3.50 of the Consoli-
dated Statutes of North Carolina,
| do hereby set aside the week of
October 9th as Fire prevention
Week, and do urge the people of
North Carolina to accept the re-.
sponsibility hat is theirs in this
connection. l call upon them to
cooperate with their Insurance De-
partment, their local fire depart
ment, and all of the agencies that
are working to save life and pro-
perty from the hazard of fire.
Done at our Capital City Of
Raleigh, this the third day of Oct
ober, in the year of our Lord one
thousand nine hundred and thirty
two, and in the one hundred and
ffty-seventh year of American In
dependence.

"Not a soul, so far as l know.

too seriously. I'll change my name,

Then you won't do anything?"
What can | do?"
Marry Josephine, John, and
we'll tell her afterward."
As Judge Marvin Kelly rode
down town he shook his head, his
head frosted with wisdom and fill
ed with doubt. What a mixture
life is!
John slept ftfully that night.
The next day he would insist on
seeing Josephine, he was eager for
her. Three days had passed since
her return. The papers were still
full of the disaster. Perhaps she
was foolish enough to want to
look her best when meeting him.
Women are queer. He slept
dreaming of his father, a poignant
clutching at his heart. He dream
ed Of the sinking ship, of Van

John stepped out of his shower.
Breakfast had been sent up. Then
the mail came. He would be at the
shaft at nine, the privilege of
easier times and of his step.

John Breen got home late that
night. The ride uptown in the
subway had been sticky, tiresome.
Bits of paper and dust and dirt
cluttered the trains. He felt tired
discouraged. The business of the
Bureau, being financed by the
mysterious Almon Strauss, a man
he had never seen, appeared futile,
worthless, impossible.
Then he was only half asleep.
A deep rumble tumble and heavy
crash of sound roared up the river.
What had happened? After a
while it was silent. Apparently
some colossal explosion. He wait

frightened with T. N. T., had
gone off and the lower sections of
the city were in disorder, glass lit
tering the streets. The crimson
aurora of the fiery detonation had,
for a few minutes, lit up the quak-
ing town. Blackness decended on
Wall Street and Broadway. Offices
were deserted. Only on Park Row
was there action; men scurrying
for news and the clang of patrol
wagons and ambuiances rushing
special officers and doctors to the
streets. But the larger part of the
PROSTATE city was asleep.

trembling with the shock of the

swamped by his own sincerity, a
victim Of the times; Of all time.

 Bob Waters and his all Water. ville aggregation missed . finc chance to close up on the leaders last week, but due to Q few bad breaks were only able to win one game. They started the second and third games on with . good lead but the poor breaks, coupled with good consistent bowling by Dick Hyland, and Bill Gumpper cost these two games. The Flanagan team came through in real cham piOnship form at the end of both games. a.
 Led by Al Demenske and Ed Daunais, Joe Harpin's team had one of their best nights of the sea- son. They collected plenty of marks to win two games, which is say ing a whole lot when you consider the opposition that was given them by the Lumbermen.
 Louis Werzinger showed up this week with a brand new pair of suspenders. The boys had pulled all the elastic out of the other pair and Louis had job keeping them up. He picked them out after his national color, green.
 The leaders still continue to get good breaks. Since the release of the last averages, F1anagan's team has bowled six games and only hit their average in two, but managed to win four of the games. ''
