distribution in the temperate regions
Of Europe and Asia. Where they have
legal protection there are great num-
bers of them. Fossil remains Of the
red deer reveal that at one time these
animals we're very abundant and that
they were very much larger and their
antlers measured as much as 40 inches
in length.
Like most Of the deer tribe, wher-
ever found, this animal Is gregarious.
The fathers and sons seek seclusion

family. accept at courting time. They
are not far away from the family,
usually on q higher plateau.
On the continent, the red deer has
been hunted so steadily that the ami
NAL has sought the seclusion and pro-
lection of the forest. Here through
the day they remain out of sight and
when the shadows fall come out for
refreshment and exercise. Where the
creatures have enjoyed the sense of
safety from dogs and guns, they Craze
happily in the open glades and even
where cultivated grounds are acces-
sible. z 4
During the later part of September,
the bucks equipped with handsome
antlers, begin their courtship. The
forest rings with their roars. The
stays have terrible battles and some
times one or both of them lose their
lives. The question Of who Is to be
lord and master of the harem is one
that Is decided by strength alone. As
the two contenders fight It out, the
wives look unconcernedly on. The
vanquished hart, runs about his hinds
as If unable to leave them. The victor
goes after him again and finally the
poor fellow sinks away.
The old stays shed their antlers In
February or March. The younger ones
keep theirs a little longer. Low bushes
and saplings are used to pull the ant
lers of. It has often been asked where
are all the shed antlers? Squirrels
and shrews and mice are especially
fond Of them Is the answer.
On an adult stag the antlers viii
have at least three points. They form
a cup In the middle of the crown and
where there are IL points, the stag
is spoken Of in Scotland as a royal
hart.
Centuries ago, the antlers had many
more points. Wonderful specimens

The Old Gardener Says:

This is the month for planting
peonies. If the roots are found
to be somewhat dried up and
shriveled when they arrive, they
can be made plump again by
placing them In boxes of earth
for a few days, the earth being
kept moist. The same result is
obtained by using moss, and with
less labor. Many gardeners make
the mistake Of planting peonies
too deep, with the result that
they fail to bloom. Two inches
is about the right depth. If the
ground has been newly prepared,
the bulbs may sink in the course
of the Winter and be 3 inches
under the surface when Spring
comes. This is sometimes the
cause Of failure, and Is to be
guarded against. Bone meal IS a
good fertilizer to use when plant
ing peonies. Manure, unless
thoroughly rotted, is to be
avoided.

DIR. TRUETT COT HIS START
AS CAROLINA FARM BOY
Newly Elected President Of Baptist World Congress Is
Rated as Most Noted Evangelist OF
Present Generation

DR.. Truett feels profoundly
/ grateful to those country preach
ers, Sunday school superintend-
ents, and teachers with whom he
associated in his early life.
"The modest workers in the rural
churches in America in each sue
ceeding generation" he says, "are
the very lifeblood of worthy and
enduring civilization. In the pres
ence of such men l feel that l
should stand with my head uncov-
cred and my feet unsandalled."
Early in life DR.. Truett had the
desire to be a lawyer, but when
he became a Christian at the age
of 10, his convictions were funda-
mentally changed. Steadily deep
ening upon him for years was the
constraint that he must give his
life in Christian ministry.
DR.. Truett planned to attend
college in North Carolina, but had
to change his plans on account of
the removal of his parents to
Texas, where he received his col
lege education.
Shortly after his graduation
from Baylor, he was given the
pastorate at the First Baptist
church, Dallas, Texas, where he
has served for 81 years. Even
though he has received many at
tractive offers to go to other
places, including the presidency
of Baylor university, he has chos-
en- to remain with his people in
Dallas.
DR.. Truett was married in Wa
co, Texas, in 1894, to Miss Joseph
inc Jenkins. daughter of Judge
and Mrs. w. M. jenkins, who was
also a student at Baylor univer-
sity. DR.. and Mrs. Truett have
three daughters, all of whom are
married and have families. They

! RIDGECREST; Aug. %. (UP)
From a Christian youth on a West
ern North Carolina farm to a
| world UNCONVENTIONAL leader.
That's the climb of the Rev. DR..
George w. Truett, newly elected
president of the Baptist world
congress.
Three times the president of the
Southern Baptist convention, the
highest honor a southern Baptist
can receive at the hands of his
brethren, DR.. Truett is probably
the most noted Baptist minister
and evangelist in this generation.
For more than a quarter of a
century he has delivered sermons
during annual preaching week at
"the summer school of Christian
culture and inspiration" at Ridge
crest, southern Baptist summer
assembly grounds, and has attract
ed thousands of persons to hear
him.
He was born in Clay county,
about two miles west of Hayes
vile, on May 6, 1857. His father
was Charles M. Truett and his mo-
Their, Mrs. Mary R. Truett. He at
tended school at Hayesville acad-
envy, and at the age of Is became
a teacher in a country school.
When he was 10, he started the
Hiawassee high school, just across
the line in Georgia, and was prin-
cipal there for two and a half
years. When % years of age, he
left North Carolina and went to
Texas with his parents.
REARED ON FARM
He was reared on a farm in
Western North Carolina. AS
youth he was eager to read every
book upon which he could put his
hands. He borrowed books from
neighbors all around his fathers
farm, and said that his indebted
ness to the neighbors for their
sympathy in his desire for infor-
nation and education can never
be adequately expressed.

American soldiers, sailors, and
marines, preaching a number of
times daily. He considers that one
of the most meaningful experience

On numerous occasions DR..
Truett has represented the south

He preached the convention

ance at Stockholm in 1923. In
1928, DR.. Truett served on the ex-

HEARD AT BERLIN
DR.. Truett was the invited guest
speaker of the Pan-American Bap-
fist congress at Rio that summer,
preaching daily for a week. He
participated in the Baptist world
alliance in Berlin, Germany,

DR.. Truett's church has been

He has been pastor there for 81
years and interprets his position

UNSTABLE DEMAND
FOR STEEL CITED
Weir Points to Uncertainties as
Cause of Abnormal Changes
in Activity.

Instability of consumer demand. and
therefore Of operation, was an out
standing condition in the steel In
dustry in 1884, according to E. T.
Weir, National Steel Corp.
Operations fluctuated from a
weekly high Of So per cent in June
to low OF It's per cent in Sep
tember, and there were abnormal
variations in seasonal levels of pro-
duction.
"A number Of circumstances COM
bined to produce this condition
which, of course, was a reflection in
the steel industry of the doubt and
uncertainty that prevailed in business
generally.
Despite these adverse influences,
however, the industry will end the
year with higher aggregate produc-
tion than in 1888. If operations con-
tinue at the present rate, it is esti-
mated that total production will be
approximately 25000,O00 tons, which
will compare with 22,600,000 tons in
1888 and will be about 54 per cent
of the average production during the
years 19241929, inclusive, which was
considered prosperous period.
1884 has witnessed a substantial
improvement in earnings positions.
Although the industry as a whole is
still lin the red," several companies
earned money and most companies
will end 1884 with smaller deficits
than was the case in several years
Immediately preceding"

FEDERAL POLICIES
EXPECTED TO STAY
United Business Service Head Be
lieves Spending and Laws
Will Dominate 1885.

The controlling influence in 1885,
as in 1884, will be governmental
policies and expenditures. says G.
Irving Gibbons, editor in chief,
United Business Service
mo material alteration in the un-
derlying economic and political poll
cies of the Federal Government is an
ticipated in the coming year. The
administration is not likely to give
up Socialistic experimentation nor,
on the other hand, are its endeavors
to extend business recovery likely to
be along exclusively orthodox lines.
In spite of the Presidents re-
straining desires, social legislation
burdensome to business, and further
outpouring of Government funds even
in excess of the present rate, seem
probable.
Large disbursements of Govern
ment funds. however, together with
a more active replenishment of OBJ
solete and worn-out capital equip
ment, will maintain and even expand
public purchasing power. There
fore, trade and industry should ex-
perience moderately higher level Of
activity during the coming year than
in 1884"
