The rest of the meal was rather

this man seemed, he had, as al

ELECTRIC EYE IS
COUNTING AUTOS
Ingenious Traffic Device of
Highway Commission Is
Now In Use
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
IN the Sir Walter Hotel.


Raleigh, Jan. 27.--In eight widely
separated points, electric eyes, tech
nically known as 'automatic traffic
recorders" are working full "a hour
shifts daily counting motor vehicles
as they pass on the highway.
Yet so cunningly are the machines
contrived that the traffic doesn't
know it is being counted Not that t
would make great difference to the
highway department, which is re-
ticent only about the exact location
of the eyes. If these spots were gen
orally known, SO many irlqulsltlve ana
curious folks would gather round thai
the roads would be made dangerous
and the real purpose of the devices
would be defeated by creation of an
artificial rather than normal flow OF
traffic.
Incidentally the purpose of the de-
vices, according to ]. S. Burch, en-
gineer of statistics and planning, is
not to get a traffic count at an in
dividual point, but rather to reveal
complete time patterns OF tra1rlc
movement ON typical roads,
Knowing these time patterns" ne

to expand short sample counts which
are made at thousands of POINTS"
The electric cye' or automatic
traffic recorder, if you please, is a

The general principle upon which
it works is that every vehicle passing

GROWERS URGED TO
MAKE CROP CHEAP

College Station, Raleigh, Jan. 81
If the farm situation remains as it is
the present time, growers should at
tempt to produce their crops as cheap
ly as possible during 1888, declared
w. H. Rankin, fertility agronomist of
the State College Experiment Station.
"Judicious use of fertilizers, proper
handling of soils, and the use of good
seed are factors which every grower
should bear in mind when planning
his crops program" Rankin said.

There are angels wings, and"-
his voice dropped-"there are
devils WINGS" Then he nibbled at
a piece of bread which he had
been crumbling.
We were silent at once. My
acquaintance with all Of this re-
markable man that had been made
public, led me to look for some
thing in his words which would
turn out to have some bearing on
our problem.
But there is fight without

BILE than fight with wings. The
Zeppelins had no wings to lift
them. A bullet has no wings. A
skillfully thrown knife, flashing
through the air like a drunken
comet, is wingless, too"
This was too pointed for Alec
Norris, who began to talk hastily
of motor cars. And because these
had little place in Mgr. Smiths
life, his work being done on foot
and in places where motor cars
were not welcome, he became
silent again.
Presently the talk was inter-
rupted. Young Strickland made
a sudden exclamation, and turned
to Stall, the butler. "Lookw he
said.
A spider had fallen from the
ceiling, or from the flowers, and
was beginning to crawl across the
table. The butler stepped forward,
picked it up, and bore it to the
window in his fingers. The little

watching him absently. Suddenly
he jumped up.
"Oh no" he cried. "Now

startled.
He ran across to the window,
threw it open, picked up the spi-

asked Norris. Didn't Stall kill
it?"
Mgr. Smith paused before an

Henderson daily dispatch., 1938-01-27
CHAPTER IL

M. PICON turned to me after
Sergeant Beef said he knew who
was guilty. What is your Eng
lish expression? He is out for
blood, eh?"
It was the Sergeant's turn to
smile. That's just about it," he
said.
Picon took some time to ex-
anime the contents of that room.
And as he did so I thought that
his examination was made not
because he expected to find evil
dence there, but because the man
was by nature thorough, and
would not attach himself to a
theory until he had made sure
that there was nothing to contra
dict it.
"And now, Mr.. Townsend, will
you oblige me a moment? Will
you go down to the lounge, turn
on the radio, and return here 2"
I began to obey rather unwill-
ingly, wondering what Thurston
and the rest of them would think
of the sound of music in this
house. I made a hasty explana-
ton to Williams, Norris and
Strickland, who were in the
lounge, and did as Picon had
asked.
THANK you," he said when I re-
turned. "And now the light grows
stronger"
Thinking that I understood
what he meant, I said, you need
have no doubt about our hearing
Mrs. Thurston scream, Monsieur
Picon."
"You heard that?" he asked
slowly.
"Of course I did,"
Then he said an extraordinary
thing. do not be too sure,
m'sieur. The human ear is a
curious organ. Sometimes it
hears what is not there to hear.
And sometimes it fails to hear
what is"
After that, which I interpreted
as piece of deliberate mystifca-
ton, he too hurried down to the
village, probably in search of
lunch.
The gong sounded for lunch,
and when 7 reached the dining
room I was not at all surprised
to find that we had been Joined
by a small human pudding, who
was introduced as Monsignor
Smith. When he had deposited a
number of parcels and hung a
green parasol on the back of his
chair, he beamed round on us, and
refused the soup.
There seemed to be a general,
and most understandable, desire
to avoid the topic which occupied
most Of our private thoughts.
But perhaps it was some subcon-
scious reversion to his far-fetched
ideas of yesterday evening which
caused Sam Williams to speak of
flying, and the progress Of fight,
gliding, and the making Of midget
airplanes.
