Nine-Foot Man Growing.

Although Mohammed Ghazi.
young mason of Alexandria. Egypt,
is said to be the tallest man in the
world, he is still growing. He Is
feet tall. Three years ago he meas
ured less than feet when he fell
from a building and injured his head.
Since then doctors have been unable
to stop his growth. The mans heart
is so weak that he must lie down con-
stantly, and doctors fear to operate.

Shoot Two Moose
On Canadian Trip

Returning Thursday. Frank
Gerstmann and C.. o. Gilfillan
brought back two moose from a
successful hunting trip in the
wilds of Ontario, Canada. Both
animals weighed between 1900
and 1900 pounds. Mr.. Gerstmann
was the first to bag his, hitting
it three times out of seven shots
TO bring it down November 1. Mr..
Gilfillan got his moose three days
later.
Moose hunting, says Mr.. Gerst-
mann, is not at all like deer hunt
ing where drives bring in the ami
mails. "You just walk into the
woods and pray you'll see one,
Mr.. Gerstmann states.
The last 65 miles of the trip to
Heron river where they hunted
was travelled by dog sled and
canoe.

Turkeys Go For Train
Ride; Heck With Market

Blue Earth-It was a sad day
for Ray Schied, Delavan turkey
raiser, but it was a great day for
the birds as they merrily rode out
Of Delavan perched on the roof of
box cars and the caboose of a 10
cal freight. Schied was prepar-
ing 1900 turkeys or the market.
He lives short distance from
the railroad track, and somehow
word must have reached the
"bookkeeper" for low and behold,
when the train pulled out, there
on top of the caboose were perch
ed 60 of Schied's, finest turkeys.
Ahead of the caboose on the top
of numerous box cars were scores
of the Thanksgiving fowl. If all
the train crew don't have turkeys
or the twenty-eighth it will be
their own fault.

Winter Is Coming;
Tramp Steals indies!

Lakefeld- With the
sharp wintry blasts of the last
few days it is no joke to have
your indies taken from the cloth
es line. R. j. Rouse, Lakefleld,
was in this predicament recently,
but within few hours the stolen
property was recovered. A negro
transient, happening by just after
Mrs. Rouse had hung her hus-
bands's indies out to dry, recog-
nized the need of the woolies in
the near future and appropriated
them from the line. On report
of the theft, Marshall Palmer re-
membered that he had seen
negro with bundle under his arm
board freight going west. Tele-
phone wires were busy, notifying
police west to be on the lookout.
Within a short time the marshal
at Fulda phoned that he nabbed
the negro with the underwear, q
pair of grey socks and a blanket.

Child Drowned In
4 Inches OF Water

Mora-Barbara Ann, three-year
old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Oscar Hallstrom of the Moose
Lake community, was drowned re-
Gently when she fell into a 20
gallon jar containing about four
inches of water. She had been
playing in the yard at the home
OF her grandmother. Losing trace

to get some water for making
mud pies, and she toppled in head
first.

STATE ADMINISTRATIONS +
PLAINS RELIEF WORK

State Relief Administrator Harry
Greenstein, of Baltimore, addressed
the editors of Cecil county news
papers, members of the Board of
Welfare for this county, and others
engaged in relief work in Cecil
county at a meeting held at the Office
Of the Board of County Commission
ers, Wednesday afternoon. Mr..
Greenstein pointed out that Public
Works program was adopted pri-
marty to put people to work and
take them OFF relief and not move
ment to nut local people to work.
Jobs would go, he said, to those on
relief rolls no matter where they
come from. This is especially true
on Federal jobs, such as the enlarge
ment of the Chesapeake and Della
ware Canal he said.

One Half Of Membership Fee
Remains In County

November 1st marks the date for

bership dollar fifty cents remain In

them, for transportation of children
to and from clinics in Baltimore and
for transportation of tuberculosis
patients to a sanatorium in cases
where they are unable to pay for it
themselves.
