Paintings Add +, Beauty.
The garden received much atten-

one of the most famous landscape
gardeners of the day.

/ erty of the Presbyterian Home. which

Xmas Flight To
 Hot Springs To
 Be Made Dee. 20

The Nome Airways does not intend to see the child ren at Pilgrim Hot Springs go wanting for Christmas
 presents, because of lack of transportation fro 0 m Nome to the Springs. They have volunteered their ser vices and will make a trip via plane to the Springs on or about the 20th of Decem Der with any presents to be taken there for the mission.
 The plane can carry one thousand pounds just as easy as one hundred lbs., so lets try to have a full load of presents for the children.
 There are sixty children there, ranging from 2 years to 18 years, and until you have visited the Mission and had an opportunity to witness what they are try ing to do for children, it is hard for you or 1 to realize or appreciate the wonder ful work going on right in Nome's back yard.
 Without a doubt this mis- sion compares with any in the world from the stand pint of having to overcome hardships. Their winter temperatures reach 50 be- low zero. Their only fuel is what wood they can scrap up during the few summer months, for their years supply of food.
 The Mission has so little money to carry on it's pur- poses that the good people of Nome, if they cannot furnish old clothing and discarded shoes, mukluks, etc, a check would be ap- preciated by the Mission in carrying on the work of mercy being done there.

Castles bigness physically is enough

He has been sailing in and out Of the

he was in his teens.
The swim through shark-infested
waters was less of an ordeal than an
experience at French frigate shoals,
when he was in boat, Captain Cas-
tie said. On the way home the LAM
kai stopped for second search at the
shoals.
She anchored about 16 miles off
shore, this being necessary because
of the foul waters surrounding the
land, and Castle with Don hampton,
seaman, and Balo Costeles, boatswain,
went ashore in skiff powered by an
cupboard motor. They searched the
shoal, found nothing and started back
to the ship.
When they had gone about mile
heavy squall blew up and water
dashed over the motor and drowned
it. They began to row and for five
hours bucked an adverse current. Ex-

LEWES OBTAINS RELIC
OF THE CIVIL WAR

While overwhelmingly in sympathy
with the Southern cause during the
Civil War, Lewes has an interesting
relic of those grim days in the shape
of six-pound cannon which was used
by Northern sympathizers to celebrate
each victory of the Union troops. The
ardent Unionist, seized the gun and
a celebration was when Abraham Lin
coin was reelected in 1864 for his Sec
'ond term as President. The cannon,
however, was not fired on that &C.
casion.
When word of his reelection was
received, Southern sympathizers went
to the home of David Coverdale, an
ardent Unionist, seized the and and
buried it on the farm of William
Russell where it remained undiscov-
cred until after the World War when
a farmers plow unearthed it and it
was taken to Lewes. It now stands
between two Revolutionary War can

CLERKS OF THE CIRCUIT
COURTS FORM ASSOCIATION

Formation of an Eastern Shore AS
ISOLATION of Clerks of the Circuit
Courts was discussed at meeting held
last week at Cambridge. Four coun-
Dorchester, Wicomico, Somerset
and Worcester-were represented at
this gathering, ]. Willard Tawes, Clerk
of the Court for Somerset county and
Benjamin L. Barnes, Deputy Clerk,
were present from Somerset.
The object of the proposed asso-
citation, according to Mr.. Tawes, is
to formulate a scale of uniform
charges for the various services rem
dered by the clerks. At present there
is no unifrom system, and one never
knows what the charge for a particu-
lar service will be in a particular
county.
To the layman it would seem that
this is a laudable move, and one that
should simplify matters for the law
yers of the Shore.
Another meeting will be held soon
to attempt the perfection of the or
ganization.

CAMBRIDGE MAN INVENTS
TYPESETTING MACHINE

Mr.. Frank A. Vinton, former resi-
dent of Cambridge, but for years re-
siding in Baltimore, has invented a
typesetting machine upon which the
United States Government granted
him a patent early last month.
In the present typesetting machines,
when it is desired to set type to a
particularly narrow width, such as
a half or quarter of a newspaper
column, the printers must set the full
width line, with blank spaces allowed
for the part not to eventually be print
ed.
This line, or slug, is then sawed
off to the required size. Mr.. Vinton's
invention can set lines any width mar
rover than column, and deliver a
slug of any desired length either flush
to the right, to the left or conferred,
without the necessity of using blank
spaces.
An outstanding feature of Mr.. Vim
toms invention is that the most diff
cult matter for the printer-tabular
matter-where the most skilled are
engaged, anyone familiar with type
writer can accomplish as much as an
expert on the machines now in use.
Mr.. Vinton has been associated with
the Linotype for many years.

THE FLIGHT OF TIME

A night is but a fleeing hour
When young feet gaily trip
Across a crowded dancing floor,
The pleasant hours quickly slip
When good friends meet with mirth
and jest,
And joyous laughter bubbles;
The hours fly on rapid wings
When we are free from troubles.
A night can seem a week in length
When cheeks are fever flushed;
When dimly CLOVIS the bedside lamp;
The whole house dark and hushed.
When pain racked limbs turn rest
lessly
Nor find the ease they seek,
And dawn seems very far away
A night can be a week.

NO TRACE OF THE
uL-FATED STAR
OF AUSTRALIA

They saw albatrosseS dance like
human beings, swan through schools
of sharks and rode winds that blew
so hard you could play high G on the
anchor chain-but found no trace of
the Inflated Star of Australia that
came down on the sea near Honolulu
with Flight Lieutenant Charles T. P.
Ulm and two companions December A.
This was the report brought back
by Captain Northrup Castle, husky
young sailing master who took out
the two-masted Schooner Lanikai and
for 80 days searched the chain Of 80
islands stretching northwest from
Honolulu-and told a voltage of 5000
miles.
Not a trace did he and his crew
find of Ulm, George Littlejohn, Leon
SHILLING of their plane, which, out
of gasoline and lost, lighted early in
the morning of December while
their radio sent frantic calls for help.
The Lanikai was chartered by Mrs.
Ulm.
1t was the sort of voyage that ap-
pealed to every one of the Lanikai's
adventurous young seamen. The ship,
once German, fled into Honolulu har-
Dor to escape a Japanese cruiser in
the World War and was seized. She
has passed through various hands and
now, owned by Castle, does various
odd yoyages-his v'business yacht" he
calls her..
Off Nihoa and Necker Islands the
Laniki had to anchor beyond the reefs
and Captain Castle swan ashore, it
being impossible to land a boat. AS
he leaped into the water and swan
away the crew counted 80 sharks
circling the schooner. Castle carried
a long steel knife and wore diving
goggles which enabled him to see I'M
der water.
81 wouldn't say sharks will never
attack man, but I believe man at
home in the water can outbluff them,"
he said.

of the trip the ship was delayed IA
days by weather of hurricane proper

foot, then on the other.

TWO BROTHERS LITIGATE
OVER PECK OF CORN

Two brothers, Lee Robinson, Of
Woodland, and James H. Robinson,
of Bethel, forgot for the time being
Tuesday, in the Court of General Ses-
sions that any relationship existed be-
tween them and staged legal battle
over a peck of corn, which, according
to the testimony, was valued at exact
ly II 1-2 cents.
Lee charged that early Christmas
morning James drove to his farm,
took a bag and went to his corn crib
and was in the act of filling it up
when he and his sons, Lester and
Leroy, went out of the house and
caught him in the act. 1t was claim
ed that they gave chase and that Jas.
in his flight dragged the small guam
tity of corn behind him. James eluded
them and managed to make his way
back to the machine which was parked
down the road.
While it was alleged in the indict-
ment that he stole 80 bushels, proof
was only offered that he stole peck.
Lee contended at the time corn was
selling for 70 cents per bushel.
James attempted to prove an alibi
but was unable to do so and the jury
returned a verdict against him. He
was sentenced to serve three months
in the county Jail.
Freeman Pettyjohn, negro, of Ell
lendale, was convicted by jury in
the Court of General Sessions last
week on a charge of assault and bat
terry on John w. Harmon, negro, of
Glendale, on the afternoon Of jan
uary 6. and was sentenced to serve
18th months in the county prison.
Pettyjohn claimed that Harmon in an
intoxicated condition and much more
muscular than he, knocked him down
and kicked him several times, and in
order to protect himself he used the
knife, slashing Harmon across the
face.
