a fire extinguisher. The building
was total loss, estimated by
firemen at from $4,000 to $15,-

$4,000 and the contents for $4,000.
A couple of small truck loads of
chickens which were inside the
building were also lost in the
flames. Stored in the warehouse
were six or eight drums of oil
and about a dozen large truck
tires which fed the flames. Two
trucks of Senger Transportation

water to the scene. Robert FAIRIES,

night appears to really be a big
night from the fans point of
view. Going into the second half
at Dover, the Eagles were trailing
by a five-point margin-25 to 20.
They outscored their hosts in the
third period to gain the lead, and
then it was nip and tuck until the
last gun went off. 1t looks like
tomorrow night will be the same
type of game-plenty of excite
ment, but all locally concerned
seem to think that Smyrna will
have the edge over the visiting
Senators. From this reporters
point of view there are two fire
balls that Smyrna will really have
to look out for. Hefty John Pi-
sapia did not hurt the Eagles un-
der the boards too much, but if
he can get into the clear and fire
a one-handed push shot-look out,
it will be two points for Dover.
Speedy Bob Gillian is another
Dover threat for Smyrna. He is

Juggling the stones for the roads,
while the men were riding the
steam rollers" she said. The wo-
men have equal rights in Israel,
Miss Piper said, and "are not al
lowed to forget their equality and
cannot pull their superiority" A
trip of 1900 miles to Turkey, with
a stop at Jerusalem, and coffee
with the Jordanian guard at the
border" was worth all the little
trials and tribulations, and "all
agreed that Istanbul is out of this
world" Turkey offered a variety
of scenery, most of it beautiful,
with green valleys and snow-cap-
ped mountains. A boat trip to the
Island of Cyprus was part of one
tour, and the Cyprists were found
friendly. While there the tourists
visited the Baths of Aphrodite,
where they drank from the wat
ers which are supposed to make
one fall in love. The place names
are stimulating to ones imagina-
ton, as she tells of going to the
top of Mt. Olympus, spending a
night at Platres, a visit to KY
renia, where they stayed at the
fine Catselli's Dome Hotel, with
heavenly meals, plus afternoon
tea, for about four dollars a day."
From the hotel one had the sea
on one side, and "it is even ten
times bluer than on the Israel
side" and mountains on the other,
with three old castles thrown in
for atmosphere" AT the Harbour
Club, stated by British, they
heard a piano player who sings
and sounds exactly like Hoagy
Carmichael with British accent" !"
The ubiquitous "Pause That Re-
freshes" signs were seen every
where on Cyprus, and you can i'm
agine how good they look to those
who haven't seen them for nine
months" she said.
Fabulous Bazaars at Damascus
She describes the fabulous baz-
aars at Damascus, visited in 1858,
where she saw the Street Called
Straight, the Mosques, and st.
Paul's Gate. On a weekend in
Jordan they saw the old city of
Jerusalem, and 'it was like step
ing into another world" she said,
describing the city as a dirty,
smelly place, but very fascinating
with streets lined with little
shops. On a trip from Jerusalem
to Amman, the capitol of Jordan,
she saw poverty, with people fol-
lowing, begging for money, most
of them women with babies. Back
through Jericho she saw Arab
women carrying large jugs of wa

staff members were permitted to
take tours to nearby and distant
places in the Middle East and she
mas written and told of many COL
orful adventures on these trips.
Her letters abound in Biblical
place names, and on an early tour
she saw Mt. Tabor, the Valley of
Armageddon, Maggido, where 20
layers of ruins uncovered 20 civ
ilizations. At a monastery atop
Mt Tabor she was shown by a
monk the spot where the Trans
fglration of Christ occurred. The
Sea of Galilee still disclosed the
big nets of fishermen and the spot
where the miracle of the loaves
and fishes took place. On one trip
they could see four countries, Is
rael, Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon.
An interesting footnote is the fact
that at the present time another
Smyrna resident, Cummins E.
Speakman, Jr., is member of the
staff at the American University
at Beirut, Lebanon, which country
Miss Piper also visited. She tells
of the unusual food, her impress
sions of the people and the CLAM

tied, and said that Ben-Gurion
once termed Israel "a pressure
cooker, not melting pot" She
described Damascus as "big, busy,
horn-blowing, a typical smelly
Arab CITY," In Aleppo she inspect
ed a huge citadel and tried her
hand at bargaining in the Bazaar.
A trip to Ankara took them
through a veritable dust bowl and
was an ordeal, but the exotic
scenes in the cities compensated.
On the way to Istanbul a sidefrip
was made to Antioch and Tarsus.

Stands Firm

Haxie, Ark. 1899 (ANP) - The
Hoxie school board which has
been steadfast in its refusal to re-
turn to segregated schools, has
challenged opponents of it's policy
to go TO court.
The board issued a statement
through the law firm of Penix and
Penix and said court action would
be the only legal method by which
ii could be made to rescind the
order which it is ready and will
ing" to defend.
Hoxie schools were integrated
when the summer term opened
July II, but closed two weeks
early when a group of whites led
by Herbert Brewer called for a
boycott of the schools and the
resignation of school board mem
bers.

ment on the boards statement,
unanimously adopted. until he
had time to study it." The state
ment said:
"A Little Rock attorney and
others speaking for an organiza-
ton called White America, have
threatened us many times in the
past few weeks with court action
challenging the legality of inte-
grafton in the Hoxie School Dis
trict. They now have said in a
public appearance at Little Rock
they will see to it that not a sim

Hoxie School as long as il remains

From a legal opinion of private
counsel and a public opinion of the
attorney general of Arkansas, we
know that our action with regard
to Indignation are in accordance
with the spirit of the supreme law
of this nation Further, our attor-
neys have told us that, had we not
taken this action, it would have
been forced upon us by the courts.
However. since the Little Rock
attorney and others of White
America persist in challenging
the legality of our order for inte-
grafton, we now call upon them to
pursue their claims in the only
legal method available.
I'VE hereby advise the Little
Rock attorney and his White
America clients that we are ready
and willing to meet them or any
qualified litigants in any proper
local, state. or federal court they
may choose to challenge school in
tegration in Hoxie.
We invited the Little Rock at
torney and his clients to declare
that they too have only peaceful
intentions by publicly aclnow-
lodging that, If they wish to chal-
lenge Indignation in Hoxie, they
will do so in a legal manner in a
proper court of law.
Further, they should also de-
clare that they viii accept and a.
bide wholeheartedly as loyal and
patriotic American citizens, by
any final decisions the courts may
render in their lawsuit challeng-

COUNTING THE FRONTIER

Minnesota counted noses twice
in as many years more than a
century ago. The first census was
taken in 1S49 to justify the crea-
ton of the Minnesota territoy.
That count, listed as of June IL,
iSie, showed 1850 people in the
territory which then extended
from the Mississippi to the Mis-
souri,. Men outnumbered the wo-
men about two to one, That was
the general condition on the from
tier.
This first census was made by
settlements. st, Paul was the larg.
est with $40 people. Second in
size was the settlement listed as
Pembina. 1t had 6ST people most
OF whom came in by way OF the
Great Lakes. This number was
surprisingly large, Third in size
was saltwater which had made a
good start before the settlements
on the Mississippi had gotten well
underway The settlement at ST.
Anthony and in nearby Little Can
ada added ST. 70 the population.
There were other settlements with
fewer numbers of people. Crow
Wing counted ia men, women
and children. Mendoza had 100.
Black Dog village claimed is
souls The soldiers. women and
children in forts numbered SIT.
In 1850 Minnesota had its first
official census as an organized
government This was taken by
the territorial counties rather than
BY scattered settlements. That
census showed q total civilian pop
ulation og 61e3. This, Of course.
did not include the Indian popula-
ton, which was, no debut, some

coming whites, In 1880 the mill
