Fried Chicken,
Biscuits, Honey

Southern fried chicken, hot bis
cults and honey oh boy!
Since Kate Morris and Ida Ad-
dington leased the Pine Knot Cafe
three weeks ago they have served
more than 200 fryers and 5000
golden-brown biscuits to custom
ers, who came to the cafe for this
featured specially.
Food at the Pine Knot is not
confined to American dishes, but
includes "appetite-whetters" from
here and yon that have become
popular with the American public.
If you are not a fried chicken en-
thusiast, you will no doubt, find
your favorite among the latter.
Mrs. Morris and Mrs. Addington
are expert cooks, as their daily
increasing business at the Pine
Knot Cafe, across from the high
school, proves.

a matter of course. We seem to
be pretty much in the attitude of
a man who has signed a contract
for something and decided after
ward that he doesn't want it. But
the contract is binding, and so he
assumes a must" attitude and
starts making the payments-all
the time wishing he hadn't bought
the thing in the first place.
FIRE HAZARD
The public should be impressed
with the necessity of uing excep-
tional care in trying to prevent
fires this summer. In both Cali
fornia and Arizona the hazard is
the greatest we have had in years.
The winter and spring rains
brought bumper crop of grass
and weeds that have died out with
the coming of heat and dry wealth
er. A fire can be started any
where and can do much damage in
short order. Be careful with your
matches.
MAYBE THE REASON
Two scientists over in North
Carolina have made a startling"
discovery. 1t is that colored folk
can see better at night than the
whites. This possibly explains the
Colored mans success In the old
days around the chicken coops.
BIGGER THAN THEY THOUGHT
Report comes that the Bismark
was $4,000 tons heavier than it
was listed. A British Naval Of
ficer who saw it go down said it
was a $4,000 ton ship and there
fore the largest in the world. Any
way, it makes the vengeance
sweeter to believe you sank a big
ger one Of theirs than they did of
yours.

Notes and questions about the

II was interested in one of your
Saturday articles, in which you took
up . readers question about the end
Of the earth.
Doesn't that question all depend
On how long the suns heat will hold
out? An astronomer has declared
that q thousand million tons of coal
would be needed to produce the
heat which the sun throws into
space every second. Since this great
loss has been going on every second
for countless millions of years,
should not the sun have been burned
out long ago. bringing an end to
life on earth? Isn't all this q mys-
tery to which there is no answer"
There still is some mystery about
the sun and its life. but the careful
work Of astronomers has given US
certain facts.
One point is the nature of the
