OLD PIPES GIVEN
SMITHSONIAN

Old-time smokers tackled the
job the hard way. Pipes unearthed
from the colony Capt. John Smith
established at Jamestown, Va, in
1907 have been given to the Smith
sonian Institution by Martin L.
Ehmann, of New York. and they
have passages so small that the
English colonists must have earned
all the enjoyment they derived
from the weed.
Some of the pipes are of Indian
make and others apparently were
made by colonists pushing wire
through wet clay. The Indian pipes
were made of clay nodded over
reeds. They were shaped like cigar
holders, and could hold only a
small amount of tobacco.
Bullets, keys, a broken sword
and other relics accompany the
pipes. They were dated by the
keys, which were of a type not
made after 1850.

COURTROOM, DECATUR, Ala,
Dec. 4 GN.SO.-Climaxing an
hour of constant pickering, Judge
w. w. Callahan today ordered
the jury in the Scottsboro case
from the courtroom while he ad'
ministered a stiff rebuke to Sam
uel S. Leibowitz, of New York
chief defense counsel. He said:
"Mr. LiebOwitz, your conduct
Is highly improper and un-
gentlemanly.
II am doing all in my power
to see that this trial is con-
Quoted according to the laws Of
the State of Alabama and that
under them the defendant gets
q fair trial.
BE A GENTLEMAN
"But at times it has seemed
to me that counsel has purpose
fully tried to nag me into max

third trial.
Patterson, the first to be re,
tried, last week again heard a
death verdict returned on him
the third since March Is, 1881
when an armed posse, summoned
by a group of white youths, halted
the train at Paint Rock, Ala.
The white boys were thrown from
the train in a fight with the
negroes which the defense claims
had no connection with the al.

With both State and defense
impatient to bring the Norris trial
to a swift conclusion, it appeared
probable the case would be placed
in the hands of the jury, predom-
inantly townsmen, by tonight.

Is This Too Good
for Your Cough I?

Creomulsion may be a better help
than you need. 1t combines seven
major helps in one-the best helps
known to science. It is made for
coughs or colds that hang on, for
quick relief, for safety.
Mild coughs often yield to lesser
helps. No one can tell. No one
knows which factor will do most
for any certain cough. So careful
people. more and more. are using
Creomulsion for any cough that
starts.
The cost is a little more than a
single help. But your druggist guar
antees it. so it costs nothing If it
fails to bring you quick relief.
Coughs are danger signals. For
safety's sake. deal with them in the
best way known.

Mother Hates to Tell Children.
Santa Visits Only Rich
Youngsters Hear Story
of Christmas From
Brother


home two little girls, twins, are
listening for the first time to
the Christmas tale told by a
four-year-old brother.
Brother" has implicit con-
fidence in the holiday saint. But
the parents of the three, listen
ing with sickened hearts to the
youngster, know that unless some
rescue there will be no Christ
mas in their little home.
The mother says:
"They (the twins are the
dearest little things on earth.
And Brother is their idol.
They think that anything he
tells them is gospel. And we,
their daddy and 1, haven't as
yet had the heart to tell him
the truth"
Remembers Last Year
Some day Brother" will have
to learn that poor little boys
and girls can't expect too much
from life. But it is too much to
expect him to grasp it at four
years.
He remembers last Christmas
when daddy" had a job: a poor
one, but still a job. There were
toys, simple. inexpensive ones,
but four years old isn't critical.
Since Santa Claus came last
Christmas he sees no reason why
his visit isn't to be repeated this
year.
A few dollars would make this
little family happy, and save
three small children from the
bitter knowledge that Santa only
comes to the homes of rich little
boys and girls.
3 Had Barren Christmas
At the home of MRS. J. F. H."
there are three little boys and by
Christmas day there will be a
fourth baby. Last year the three
had the sad experience of awak-
ening on Christmas morning to
empty stockings and a bare
table.
Begs their distraught mother:
"PIease, please help them this
year."
The father of the little family
is out of work. The mother, in
her condition, cannot find a job.
Baby clothes are needed and
clothes for all three of the young
sters. A basket of simple food
and a few toys would complete
their Christmas and restore to
them their sadly shaken belief in
the holiday spirit.
They are II, 8 and 7 years old.
The new baby is due in about 10
days.
Has Seven Children
Mrs. j. E. NJ:
"I have seven children and
my husband makes very little
money. We are living in three
rooms and just barely get along.
There is no money to buy
Christmas for my little ones.
don't ask much, but I would like
the children to have q tiny
share, at least, in the holiday.
Cali their little friends are
talking about what Santa Claus
is going to bring them, and
they, my own babies, keep ask
ing me what he is going to
leave at our house. I haven't
the heart to tell them the
truth"
Mrs. M. A.:
"My husband is not working.
We were put out of our house
for back rent last week and we
have three little children.
There are two girls, ages 8 and
IA, and a boy aged 6. They
are expecting Santa Claus, put
we won't be able to do a thing
for them. Please help us for
| the chiIdron'S sake"
