ALEX MORRISON says:
What you think you do and
what you actually do are two
different things. II every golfer
would realize this and admit II,
he'd be on the way to better
scores.
For example,, most players let
their hands change position on
the club during the swing. They
don't think they do. but action
pictures would prove II. The
hands invariably work apart
near the end Of the backswinR.
It's q common fault with those
who raise the right elbow. Moth
ing can be more harmful 70 your

You can check up on your
hands simply by holding q coin

AAA CONTRACT
Prof. C.. A. McCue Gets Word
of Some Modification to
Aid Farmers
HOGS FOR HOME USE

Notifications of the corn-hog
production adjustment contract,
permitting small producers with no
hog production base or with a low
er than average production from
one litter during the base period to
produce an adequate number of
hogs for home use, have been an
nounced by the Agricultural Ad-
justment Administration, accord
ing to c. A McCue, Director of
Agricultural Extension. Producers
who agree under the 1885 corn-hog
contract to hold their corn acreage
within the contract limits but who
do not have hog production base
will be permitted to produce one
1885 litter of pigs for home con-
sumption. No hog payment, how
ever, will be made to the producer
taking advantage of this ruling. 1t
has also been ruled that 1885 con-
tract signers, who nave an average
production recvord Of six hogs or
less for both market and slaughter
during the 1928 period and who
are receiving no hog payment un-
der their contracts, may be permit
ted to slaughter for home con-
sumption all pigs produced in 1885
in excess of the producers market
hog base, provided that only one
litter is farroWed on the farming
unit under contract The number
of pigs that may be produced for
market under the contract is not
changed by this ruling. The 1885
contract does not require a produc-
er with market hog production
average of Is hogs or less for the
base period to make any adjust
ment in 1885 farrowings, but until
the new ruling was made, many
small producers could not keep
more 1885 pigs than the average
number produced during the base
period. For example, producer
who had a market hog base of only
two hogs and a home slaughter
base of three hogs could produce a
total of no more than five hogs in
1885. Under the new ruling, this
grower may not produce more than
two hogs for market, but he may
use for home consumption all the
remaining pigs farrowed in one lit
ter in 1885.

VIKINGS FIRST
IN ARCTIC ZONE
New Evidence Found Chang
eS Accepted Idea of the
Mortimer
ALTERED GEOGRAPHY

Washington. - Swedish archeolo.
gists are changing usually accept.
ed ideas of the Vikings. Evidence
dug from the sandy shores of the
Baltic sea proves they were peace
full merchants, pushing their trade
from London to the Bosporus. Gone
Is the traditional Viking of English
history-a savage warrior who spent
all his time dashing across the seas
In an open boat, raiding peaceful
communities.
The trouble, archaeology now in
dicates, Is that reliance has been
placed on biased sources of in
formation. British, Irish, and
Frankish chroniclers could hardly
be expected to appreciate the finer
qualities of the ''blond beasts" who
conquered them.
For an accurate picture of the
Viking age one must go to the
sagas, that great mass of legend,
history, poetry, and law collected
from oral tradition and written
down in the Twelfth century" says
the National Geographic society.
"Archeologists exploring the lost
civilizations of Greenland, Scandi-
navia, Russia, and the Baltic are
succeeding in verifying much of
this valuable source of material.
Altered World Geography.
Geography made the Vikings a
sea-faring people, and they in turn
altered the geography Of their
world. Early settlements in Scandi-
navia were built along the coast
where deep, winding fjords made
overland travel next to impossible.
The sea was a natural highway
and ships were built to ride the
storms of northern latitudes. These
boats were small, less than so feet
long. with high carved prov and
stern, a square-rigged sail Of bright
ly cOlored wool, and 90 to 80 sets
Of oars. King Canute's long ship
boasted 100 oarsmen, but this was
royal exception.
'In these slender craft, steering
by sun, moon, stars and wind, the
Mortimer dared unknown seas and
incredible distances. Boats were
as speedy as they were seaworthy,
making the trip from Norway to
Iceland in four days, and from Den
mark to England in three.
"The Vikings were a hardy, ad-
venturous race, and their fatalistic
religion made them fearless. Life
was dangerous game wherein one
strove to win as much fame and
honor as possible In the short time
allotted by the Norns (the Fates).
Games, contests, and feats of
strength were tremendously popu-
lar. Many are the tales told of Olaf
Tryggvason, the king Of Norway
who challenged Kjarten of Iceland
to swimmir~ match. Olaf had
