day, the elder Remington was in
terrupted by his % year old son,
Eli, Jr., who %pointedly asked for
money with which to buy a rifle.
His request fatty refused by his
father, the young man decided to
attempt to make his own rifle from
scrap metal. After several unsuc-
cessful experiments, the young in
ventor finally had a model rifle
which suited his fancy and which
he turned over to a Utica, N. Y,
gunsmith for necessary rifing op-
erations.
When. Eliphalet Remington, ST.,
saw the finished rifle he was so
impressed with his sons ingenuity
and the rifles remarkable per-
Torrance that he decided to make
rifles, and subsequently developed
a machine to do the necessary RI
fling operations. The year 1865
found E. Remington Sons turn
ing out guns of great accuracy
and the success of the new firm
was definitely assured, and from
1865 to the present day the name
of Remington has been a by-word
with marksmen throughout the
world.

Ponder Smoke
By
EDMUND M'LAURIN

Some months ago I invited read
ers of this column to submit any
puzzling technical questions per-
tanning to the shooting game that
might come to mind, stating at the
time that in the event any ques-
lions were offered which I or any
of my local contemporaries, could
not answer with certainty that l
would promptly refer any such in
quiries to nationally recognized ex-
perts of the National Rifle Associ-
alton anda the War Departments
Division Of Civilian Workmanship,
with whom I am in frequent con-
tact by mail.
Many questions have been SUBJ
mitted, most of them of a nature
which almost anyone of practical
shooting fraternity, could probably
answer. Those few questions which
gave me any trouble I Immediate
ly referred to my associates. But
it remained for a high school lad
of 16 to submit a question that
stumped all of the locals, the queS-
ton being: Can you tell me when
the Remington Arms Company was
founded and how"
Now, I had a hazy idea Of the
story behind the great Remington
Company of today, but, aside from
the date of it's establishment, I
had very little authentic knowledge
to draw on, and in writing a news
paper column one must be able to
verify any statements m a d e in
print. To be on the safe side, I
referred the question to MIR. Frank
Kahrs, Manager of the Reming-
ton company's Bridgeport Comm
plant, who was preparing to come
down South to attend the recent
smallbore rifle matches of the Kan
napolis-G astonia clubs. My refer
red inquiry, therefore, was given
what might be described as prompt
and personal attention.
Anyway, according to MIR.
Kahrs, the Remington company of
today had it's beginning back in
1916, when a blacksmith n a m e d
Eliphalet Remington operated a
shop in lion, New York, where one
of Remington's great plants is now
located.

Local Insurance
Men Make Record

Last week Joe Neal, popular To-

of leading all of the agents of the
Occidental Life Insurance Com
pany in the United States in pro-

"This week we take great
pleasure in announcing our lead
err, Joe F. Neal, general agent for
the company in West Jefferson"
The Eye Opener, company publ
cation, stated.
"Joe is a man who believes in
using the local paper for helpful
advertising. A letter from a salts
fled policyholder printed in the
newspaper is a great help to Joe"
Oscar Houck, we'll known West
jefferson school teacher who sells
insurance for the Occidental dur
ing the summer time, has also
made a good record. He was lis
ted in 18th place last week.

DIR. Caldwell Delivers Fine
Address To ROtarians.
Gambill On Tonight.

DR.. r. T. Caldwell, of Cheyenne,
Wyoming, retired Presbyterian
minister who is spending the
summer at the Bromine-Arsenic
springs, delivered an inspiring re-
ligious' message at the weekly
session of the Jeffersons Rotary
Club last Thursday night.
He declared that it might be
necessary to fight a dictator with
arms, but that ultimately the
greaest things of life are not mill
tary or material, but rather they
are spiritual.
Another outstanding feature on
the program was special pro-
gram of music by Miss Mary Nc
Killip, of Hollidaysburg, Pa, who
is visiting Mr.. and Mrs. Gwyn
Gambill. She was accompanied at
the piano by Mrs. Gambill.
Tonight Gwyn Gambill will
give a vocational talk.

Historic Conference

Historians of the future will probably
agree that the most significant conference
ever held between group of nations was
the one that has been in session in Havana,
Cuba, for the past several days.
Plans were formulated and approved at
this conference by delegates from twenty
one nations of the Western Hemisphere,
that will make it virtually impossible Tor
Hitler and Mussolini to gain control of the
new world.
Under resolution called the "Act OF
Havana, these twenty-one American ma
tons solemnly pledge-to stand together
against any military or economic invasion
on the part of any foreign power or powers.
Besides going to each others rescue in
event of war, each nation is pledged to
trade with the Others Another provision
of supreme importance was the new decl-
sion that the United States or any other
American nation would be given free
hand in taking over European possessions
if such were necessary to prevent threat
to the peace of the new world.
This act is expected to bar Germany and
Italy from ever obtaining control of or
phaned American colonies Of France, the
Netherlands and Great Britain.
The remarkable success of this con-
ference is due, to large measure to Sec
rotary of State Cordell Hull He has GER
tain1v carved a name for himself on the
pages of history.

This column is not an informa-

many subjects, but upon hearing
so many comments on .God Bless
America" we cannot fail to add
ours.
This now popular patriotic song
was written by Irving Berlin in
1917. But the author laid it aside
until 1888 when it was popular
lied by radios Kate Smith. Re-
Gently chosen by Republican No
minee Wendell L. Willkie as his
campaign song and by the Demo-
cratic National Convention in
Chicago as it's theme song, God
Bless America not only ranks
third among sheet-music best sell
lers, but has become a sort of
second national anthem. To date
the composition has netted more
than $4,000 in royalties, which
Berlin has put into a trust fund
for the Boy and Girl Scouts.
A Big Fight!
Nothing of this nature has
drawn such large and apprecia-
tive audience in a long time as
the prize fights staged by the
American Legion.
There is already talk about an
other one and it has been sug-
gested that an added attraction
be a combat between the big
butter and egg man, Stokes Van
noy, and the towns big Mayor,
H. c. Tucker. Judge might have
the weight, but we believe Mr..
Vannoy could lick him as far as
speed in the ring goes. At any
rate such an attraction would GER
tainly prove to be entertaining
to the onlookers.
Heat and Heat
Mr.. John Rhodes, of the Rhodes
Furniture company has returned
from the furniture exposition in
High Point. Mr.. Rhodes pointed
out that it was the hottest meet
ing he had ever attended. Il
thought I.would not live through
the night, but cooling showers
helped things OUT, he said.
Mr.. Rhodes said the exposition
was one of the most successful he
had ever attended from the stand
point of attendance as well as the
new furniture shown. Il couldn't
help buying it, neither can you
when you see it," he declared.
