FOR YOU FISHERMEN is this little piece of
advice about obtaining bait. Haven't tried it but
they say it works fine. Merely soak small area
with water say about four feet in diameter
After about ten minutes pour gallon of solution
made with water and about six tablespoonsful of
your wifes bleaching compound. The worms will
literally cover the ground and you can pick them
up without any danger of their getting away Next
time you go fishing take bottle of bleach along
and get your worms on the spot. If it works. don't
say we didn't tell you!

be arranged, for a price. Quack
doctors blossom like weeds on the
West Coast"
How about the mortician's af-
fidavit ?"
Another dollar, another deal
Any preserving curbstoner would
do business with Hunter"
With cremation part of the
deal?'
"Uh-huh. Cremation certainly;
no loose ends that way. Just
ashes; no cadaVer to exhume, if
ever an unforeseen hitch de-

And the motive for all that 2"
Generally in character with
Hunters ruling obsession." Jigger
gestured at the imposing dwelling.

Red said, "It's theory, but it
sounds as pFony as a frame-up to

ger frowned. Il could swear I've
run afoul of that volcanic temper
somewhere before"
You've seen him everywhere,
hackie. He's the boss who canned
you on Christmas Eve; the guy
who steps on your white-and-tan

He's every guy you want to slug

She was behind a row of bushes,

VIII Lady Godiua Ride AGAIN.

ride tomorrow I've never had so
much fun"
She went to bed with bad case
of sunburn, and the next day the
peasants got the biggest tax re-
bate in history. Ever since then
peasants figure it will happen
again And what about the hero
inc? Whenever she asked for a
new dress, old m n Coventry
would say:
Sorry. Milady, but our cof-
fers are as bare as bare as you
know what"
The house of representatives
has passed a new $7,2000,000,000
tax bill. the biggest ever. Frank
Trips idea is that 49 modern
Godivas might help save the day
one to ride through Washing
ton, D. c., and each of the 48
state capitals.
It would probably be easy
enough to find the gal volunteers,
but where would you find the 40
snowwhite horses And people
nowadays expect more. They
wouldn't even turn out for t h
parade unless Lady Godiva played
a guitar, or carried a rifle and
shot down eggs thrown into the
air and flying streamers saying.
Bring down the high cost of
living"
Nope, congressman dcn't scare
as easy as the old Lord of Coven-
try They know what the average
husband would say If his wife
trotted bare down the stairs bound
for horseback ride to lower
taxes.
We'll, for heavens sake" he'd
say. Go back upstairs and put
on your hat. / don't want you to
go out looking like q bum"
Then he'd go back to reading
his newspaper.

sister, She fumbled in the bosom
of her dress. ! heard you ask for
a picture of Susan" She held a
card out to Jigger. Il had this por-
trait in my trunk. Matthew once
saw it, but didn't know it was a
picture of Susan"
Jigger took the card and ex-
amined it. He turned it in his
hand, then over again. 1t was a
postcard reproduction of an oil
painting, signed "Arents," and
captioned Nude of the Inner
Eye" The painting was a patent
representation of the non-defini-
tive school of Surrealism.
Jigger pursed his lips. "This-is
a portrait 2"
Aunt Penny Uttered. Susan
posed for it, she said"
Your niece was an. artists
model?"
Aunt Penny nodded.
Where ?"
In New York City"
"When?"
1T was the first Christmas after
she ran off" Aunt Penny widened
her eyes, remembering. Matthew
thought / was going to see a heart
specialist" She Uttered. But l
met Susan instead" "
Wouldn't he have allowed you
to visit your niece ?"
"Oh, no. Matthew hated Susan" !"
Jigger said eagerly. Nov why
do you say that"
Matthew hates everybody" !"
She said it like a child reciting
a line in a ghost story.
Jigger persisted, But exactly
why did he hate Susan?"
Aunt Penny thought about it.
Because she was wicked" :"
Wicked, how"
Her face screwed up thought
fully. Immoral wicked"
Just what did Susan do?"
Now Aunt Penny looked scan
daliZed. She used to meet Tom
Connor in the old Saugatuck Mill.
That's why Matthew made Susan
marry Willie. And that's why she
ran off and can't come home!"
Jigger stared at Aunt Penny

versation. tt csc revelations

orders must be cashed at specific
post offices has been eliminated.
Under the old system, it will be
recalled, a money order had to be
cashed in the office to which it
was issued. If it was cashed at a
post office in another city an adj
ditional fee was charged.
The new system makes avail
able to the Post OfIice Depart
ment the most advanced electronic
business machines. One machine,
the IBM Type S0S Proof Machine,
has been especially developed for
the new money order purposes
and 1t combines all the advantages
of the modern proof machine in
widespread use by banks an d
large department stores through
out the country. Another of h e
principal machines to be used with
the new system is the Electric
Statistical Machine, workhorse of
the 1850 Census tabulation.
The Postmaster General de-
scribed the Inauguration of tn c
new money order system as h e
largest single accounting change
ever made in postal history and
said, that the development comes
after exhaustive study by t h e
Post Office Department, the Gen.
cral Accounting Office, the Trea-
sury Department and the Federal
Reserve Board.
The Department urges users to
remember that the new money
orders must not be folded, stapled,
spindled or multilated in any way
since they are to be issued on
punch cards and processed by ma
chinery.
Last year more than 300, 200, 900
money orders. totaling upward to
five billion dollars were issued and
paid by the Post office Depart
ment
The new money order system
will be under the management
and supervision of Assistant Post
master General Osborne A. Pear
son, who directs the Departments
Bureau of Finance.
All new money orders will clear
Federal Reserve Banks in the
same manner as Treasury checks
or other cash items. The Federal
Reserve banks will then turn over
the paid money orders to h e
proper regional Post Offices.
The new money order system is
in keeping with the program to
modernize and improve the OPP
Grafton of the postal service, as
well as to effect economy and
the better to serve the general
public.

MACHINE SORTS LEMONS

Davis, Calif.-tPl-Science had
developed a machine that sorts
lemons by color to determine
which fruit goes to market earl
lest. Designed at the College of
Agriculture of the University of
California, the machine sorts 15,-
900 lemons an hour and m y
someday replace slower-working
humans who now do the job by
hand.
Since lemons ripen unevenly :
one tree may have ripe, silver,
light green and dark green fruit
they must be sorted so ripper
ones can be sent to market first.
The machine has a metering de-
vice that feeds lemons single fie
past bank of light-sensitive cells.
The cells measure the amount of
light reflected from the skin. Diff
ferent colors operate various gates
which rout the fruit into bins.

"Haw, Haw, Haw!"
Well, he knew that the Lady
Godiva was one of the poorest
riders in the whole countryside.
She regularly fell off her mount
at least twice during every fox
hunt. And all her husband meant
by saying what he did was that
he wouldn't dare try to ride a
lerse without a saddle.
But like any wife in any age,
Lady Godiva took what her hus-
band said literally. She thought
he meant she wouldn't dare ride
with her own back bare through
the streets. No lady could resist
challenge like that
So she put out an order for
the poems to stay indoors. Then
she saddled up white horse, took
off her robes and rode through

Soil Saved In
Contour Farming

American farm landscapes are
being transformed from straight
rowed cornfields and checker
boards of other grains to grace
full curves, strips and steps"
The transformation is not for
scenic effect, but for contour
farming, strip-cropping an d ter
racing to conserve valuable top
soil and water for present a nd
future production of food and
fiber on farms throughout the ma
ton.
Assisting in this vital work are
thousands of 4-H Club members
who receive training in the Ma
tional All Soil and Water Con-
servation program, directed by the
Cooperative Extension Service in
this and "A other states. 1t is es-
timated that since the programs
inception on 1914, the Alters
have helped apply conservation
practices on more than 1,400,0O0
acres of farm lands to stop ero-

Rewards for outstanding records
of achievement in this program in

winners; wrist watches for state
finalists over IA years of age,
