OF
All
Things!
BY E. r. B.

The column opens this week
with the observation that "Black-
berry Winter" came as predicted
here. We also remark that Ebert
Reed, the True and Accepted
Weather Prophet, hit the nail on
the head with his forecast of two
frosts in May.
Then there was John, the
Greek, dwelling somewhere in
the hills about Clinchco, who adj
vertised strayed calf in the fol
lowing terms, Lost: one calf. He
has three white feet and the 9TH
er one same like. If anybody find,
will give everybody five dollars"
Joe Lee Baker, the village cop,
says somewhat grimly that he
knows Marve has one tooth, at
least, for the mark of it is on his
hand. And in this way we begin
to record the fact that the Boss
of the South Ward has again TAX
en- up his residence in the Walled
Off Hotel. He will probably lay
some deep plans while abiding in
the luxury of that domicile.
Marve's big day will be on Nov
ember 6. On that occasion he will
hoard his vote until the late after
noon, uttering dark hints as to his
purposes all the while. AS goes
Marve, so goes the South Ward.
The politicians might as well re-
cognize that and adjust them
selves accordingly.
Springtime, with its paint-up
and fix-up urges, has put new
life into our younges seventy-five
year old citizen, Charlie De
Loach. His step is lighter, and the
look on his face tells you that he
is on some job. If it's house re-
pair, he is picking up pieces of
lumber from this place and that.
He has apparently had them spot
ted for weeks. Now, he pounces
ON them and bears them away, as
he can use them. At night he
comes into town to tell of the
great works he is, doing and is
going to do.
Charlie has done we'll to keep
willing mind and a merry heart
so long. Don't forget that he is a
candidate for justice of peace
It's bourbon and branch water,
ham and eggs, rock and rye
again. Jerry Waddell came in
from the army Sunday night, and
on Monday he and Billy were
thumbing their way out of Clint
wood, bound for parts unknown,
even to themselves.
Corbett Hamilton has dug up an
other one about his friend John
Albert Stone. 1t appears that once
during his career Albert was
guest or the commonwealth OF
Virginia down state for a few
months Returning to his native
hills, he was shocked at the free
and easy ways of the mountain
GERS. Walking down by the home
of John Artrip, he beheld h
Choctaw chief sitting, as usual, on
his porch, serenely viewing the
world, Albert came to q halt and
rallied at John as follows "There
you are, letting the dust settle on
You just as YOU used to do, tell
YOU it's time YOU'RE getting out

Answers Question
On Sociul Security

The Billings social security
office receives numerous inquir-
les these days on the new Soc
ial security law, it was stated
by Glenn A. Gardner, manager.
The most seem to come from
the self-employed small business
men and are about like this:
Il help pay social security for
my workers, but I have none
for myself. How about that?"
In answering this question
MI. Gardner says, Under the
new law, you will be under
social security beginning with
January 1851 even though you
work for yourself. You cannot
have social security protection,
however, if you are a farmer,
or if you are a professional
worker, such as a doctor, law
yer, dentist, accountant, etc.
Self-employment earnings I'M
der $400 do not count at all. If
you are working for yourself,
otherwise, you will report your
1851 social security at the same
time you report your income tax
before March Is, 1852.
Because a man working for
himself is both employer and
employee, those self-employed
will, in effect, get a discount
on social security since they
will pay only one and one-half
times the employee rate. This
for the time being is 2A% of
total earnings. Employees at
present pay 1a% of annual
earnings up to $4,000 and their
employers match this amount
making a total of go.
Many people who have been
considered to be "self-employed"
will now come under social Sc
curity as employees of the COM
pany they represent. For eX-
ample, full-time life insurance

No wonder a bloodhound looks so mOurnful

ItsAn Fun

A BLOODHOUND does not track man vindic-
lively, says Dr. Whitney. Just the opposite
= it's because he likes people so much. His
idea of great fun is to track human being,
any human being at all.
One winter morning DR.. Whitney was hunt
ing raccoons in the hills near his Orange,
Conn, home with one of his favorite dogs.
But the 'coon's trail crossed that of man
who had been hunting in the vicinity the day
before, and the bloodhound delightedly aban-
doned the 'coon's scent for that of the hunter.
1t led more than IS miles right into New
Haven, where the dog was hit by trolley
car and suffered broken leg.
DR.. Whitney had the leg set and the dog
recuperated without trouble. but it was the
last time he was taken raccoon hunting. In
stead DR.. Whitney shipped him off to the
late Captain Volney G. Mullikin, of Lexing-
ton, KY, ranked as the greatest bloodhound
detective who ever lived.
The Mullikin bloodhounds are still active

A BLOODHOUND is a very sad animal. He
IA spends his whole life rescuing lost hunt
ers, strayed children and missing vacationists,
and generally comporting himself as prime
example of mans best friend. But what hap
pens1 Whenever his name is mentioned,
everybody thinks of ''Uncle Toms Cabin"
mo dog has better right to look mourn
full than bloodhound" says DR.. Leon F.
Whitney, veterinarian, scientist and sports
man, the country's foremost authority. DR..
Whitney has located scores of fugitives and
criminals as well as lost persons with his
own bloodhounds He has also trained blood
hounds for enforcement agencies all over
the country, including the state police of
Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York. Massa-
chusetts, Kentucky and Oklahoma.
Victim Of Libel
ONE of the gentlest dogs in the world, the
bloodhound has long been the victim of a
historical libel, he explains Back before the
Civil War, plantation owners used blood
hound packs" to pursue runaway slaves.
And countless lurid theatrical posters de-
picted them chasing Eliza across the ice.
Actually, all evidence points to the fact
that slave-tracking dogs were not purebred
bloodhounds but vicious mongrels As a
result of the adverse propaganda resulting.
bloodhounds were shot on sight by Union
soldiers invading the South They were all
but exterminated.

Photographs by Allan Could

In 1888 the purebred bloodhound began a
new lease on life in this country when num-
Der were brought over from England. His
undeserved bad reputation persisted however
partly because of general misapprehen-
sion about the name. 1t doesn't mean the
dog lusts for blood. but that in ancient times
in England he was known as a noble, or
"blooded" hound.

Chief Named For New ELM Division

Lewis E. Hoffman. a veteran government career man has been appointed chief of 8 newly creat. ed Bureau of Land Management Division of Minerals, Secretary of the Interior Oscar L. Chapman announced today. Establishment of a new Division of Minerals within the Bureau of Land Man agement and the promotion of Lewis Hoffman as its chief is the means the Department is taking to facilitate the development and leasing of minerals on the pub- lie domain, Chapman said.
 Establishment of the new di- vision has been accomplished by abolishing the Division of Adju- dication and transferring all acti- vities relating to minerals to the Division of Minerals, ELM Dir ector Marion Clawson stated. A reorganization of the Division of Land Planning now to be called the Division of Land, has also been undertaken. This division will process cases formerly han dled in the Division of Adjudi- cation except those relating to minerals.
 The Division of Lands will re- main under the supervision of Russell s. Kifer, Chief of the Di- vision of Land Planning. With a greater burden on the office of the Chief Counsel, former chief of the Division of Adjudication Clarence R. Bradshaw will be re- assigned to that office as an assis- tant Chief Counsel, which posi- tion he formerly held. Both Xii fer and Bradshaw have visited Alaska's ELM offices.
 MT. Hoffman is an authority on oil and gas leasing and other mineral resource administration. On March Is, 1914, by transfer from the U. s. Patent Office, he entered service as clerk in the General Land Office, predeces- sor agency of the Bureau of Land Management. From 1920 to 1883 he engaged in private law prac- tice. He returned to CLIO in Nov ember 1883 to become senior clerk in the homestead division of that agency, and was designat- ed Examiner in July 1884, in the Reclamation and. Land Grant Divi sion. He became Division Revie- wer and Law Examiner of the Minerals Division in 1885 and was designated Assistant Chief in November 1888, Acting Chief in May 1943, and Chief in July 1943. With the consolidation of CLIO and the Grazing Service into the Bureau of Land Management in 1946 Mir. Hoffman became chief of the branch of Minerals within the Division of Adjudication.
