Troy, Tex., May II.—On Friday
evening at V o'clock, at the home of
the bride's sister, Mrs. L. It. Jen-
kins, in Temple, Miss Sue Uighain

in marriage. The profusion of flow-
ers made tho cozy parlors most at-
tractive for the few relatives and
friends who were present, liev. J
N. Wooten of the First Christian
church of Temple performed the cer-
emony.
This marriage Is the union of two
of Hell county's oldest and best fam-
ilies. The bride is the daughter of

Ernest A. Smith, of Sheffield, Eng-
lish spelter expert, says America is
now leading the world as a zinc-pro-
ducer, supplanting Germany. The
total world's output of v.inc fifty years
ago was only 133,000 tons annually.
Owing to the cutting orr of Kuroponn
supplies and heavy demands on Amer-
ican plants output of the latter was
brought up to H25,000 tons a year, or
double the output or J!) 13.
Work Is being rushed on the Feder-
ated Malay States railways, which will
connect Signapore w ith Bangok, Slain.
The opening of tills new route will
shorten the distance from Tiangok to
European trade centers by five days.

The Man Behind If
When a man starts out to buy something with
which he is not thoroughly familiar, it pays to buy
from a man who does know and who will correctly
represent the goods.
Business cannot be built up and maintained on
any other system. The merchant who has continued
to grow and who has increased his patronage year
after year, has something more than the mere
goods on the shelves. HE HAS A PERSONAL
VALUE to the buyer. One buys his judgment and
his integrity as much as he buys the articles of mer-
chandise.
I claim to have built my business on 1NTEGRI1Y
—maybe it would be more impressive for customers
to make that statement, and 1 only hope that the
buyer of AUTO ACCESSORIES will INQUIRE of
others concerning my goods, my prices and my rep-
resentations.
Maybe one will get something good elsewhere—
He knows it is good if he conies to the proper place
to get it.

May 12.—Secretary |
Daniels, speaking tonight before tho
general conference of the Methodist ;
Episcopal church, South, urged nil j
branches of American Methodism to j
unite into one mighty army of mill- '
tant Methodists.
Reciting how tlio recent unity of,
command in the allied armies In j
France had mobilized tho forces of !
civilization Into one Invincible army, j
the secretary of the navy asked if j
this wise action did not afford a |
convincing reason why American j
Methodists should do likewise and j
gain strength and solidarity "in the |
onward movement of their mighty j
Christian army."
"In this supreme hour," continued!
the secretary, "when sectionalism has I
blossomed Into national unity and i
love of the republic has broadened |
to make possible freedom and de- j
mocraey of all nations, the supreme '
duty of Methodists, north and south, |
Is to make any and ail sacrifices
that may bo necessary to mobilize i
Methodists Into one mighty church. J
If others have forgotten there was a j
Mason and Dixon line, the Methodist |
churches cannot wisely longer march |
In separate columns."
Secretary Daniels denied that this !
war showed the t'hristian civilization
had failed.
"It alone Is the star of hope," he j
saiil. "A study of l'i ussiaulsm <1 is- |
closes that In that country the state j
has usurped the place oT Cod nnn j
that spiritualism had given place ;
to materialism. No people could j
Wrrrfmit? wage war for spoils who j
had nut repudiated the teaching* of
Jesus Christ.
"Tho war will not be won by might
alone, It Will, he won by faith, by j
prayer, by tho courage which Clod
Imparts to nil who in their hour of
need look to Him for guidanre and
strength.''

Cameron, Tex, May 11.—A tour
of a greater portion of Milam county
on Friday of this week by the Tile-
| gram correspondent reveals the fact
; that there will, without a doubt, be
i the largest crop of grain raised this
i year In this county that has ever
been seen. The fact that corn with
i which to make a crop last year
came at from to $2.50 per bushel
j caused the farmers and landlords as
• well to see to it in the beginning
j that such would not be the case this
j year, and they set out to raise corn
I and other grain. The fact is the
corn acreage is almost doubled this
year from last, and the game will
apply to oats, cano and other feed
i stuffs. The greater portion of the
corn is now shoulder high and has a
j dark green color. Some farmers de-
! claro that without another drop of
! rain Milam county will average 25 to
; SO bushels of corn per acre on her
corn acreage, and without another
good rain, such as has been falling
lately, the average should run to 85
and 40 bushels per acre. The oat
crop is made, full in head and high
In plant; a htimber of fields will
be ready 'to harvest within two
weeks. Gardens are better and
more plentiful than was ever known,
I and tho cotton crop is all up and
I farmers are busy from daylight until
j dark cleaning tho fields of the
j weeds and grass. Without a catas-
trophe of some description, the fli>il
of Milam county will produce more
this year than It has ever been
known to yield before.
May llavc Street Sprinkler.
Cameron, Texas, May 11.—A well
attended directors' meeting of the
Cameron Commercial club was held
last night in tho district court room.
Various matters fer tho betterment
of tho city of Cameron were brought
up and discussed, among which was
the matter of building cross side-
walks and that of street sprinkling.
For tho past few days the "water
wagon" has been dry and the dust
is getting unbearable in tho business
district. The matter of a motor
sprinkler was discussed, and if plans
can bo made a big machine will be
placed in service in the near future.

It lies in the bumper mileage, that harvest of 1,044,686
linear miles and 4,178,744 tire miles, piled up collectively in 1917
by the Goodrich Test Fleets. East, west, north, south, as the light
and heavy cars of the famous Six Fleets mauled Goodrich Tires over
city pavement and country road, and mileage multiplied mileage, the
tires multiplied that surety with sensational mileage everywhere.

road. Thu spiral-wrapped, cable-cord tire body took the pounding,
and came back with more mileage.

l.ondon, April 14 The yearly d;im-
rkc to Iihm! by rats, in Km;tund
alone, is estimated at $200,000,000.
according to « cautionary notice Just
Issued to farmers by a government
committee. The hitter urges n ruth-
less offensive against the rat. It says
In part:
"In your buildings, granaries and
barns, you have nn underground ene-
my who destroys our food suplics al-
most ;is much ns the submarine. The
nation cannot afford to keep rats at
a moment, when every sack or wheat
is urgently needed.
"In the rush of work on the farm,
rats have been neglected and have
multiplied. They breed faster than
any other vermin. The rat will breed
when ft.ur months old and have from
three to five litters In a year. The
Rveratie litter is. ten. but ns many as
twenty-three have been found. At
that rate of increase, you cannot go
on feeding them, Hut unless you arc
prepared to feed then), it is an nn- ,
neighborly act to keep them at nil.
for the moment you stint them of
food, they will swarm over your
neighbor's farm.
"At a moderate estimate, the Eng-
lish countryside is feeding one rat
per head of the total population of
these islands, 'and ten rats will eat,
apart from what they spoil, as much
grain as yon and your \vif<\ eonsunos
Save the English harvest of 191 S for
yourselves and don't waste it on rats.
"What are you to do? Keep your
grain protected and make the full-
est use of traps, snares, ferrets and ^
dogs. Barn owls are among your
best friends. Close rat holes with
concrete and glass. Organize rat |
hunts and encourage rat-catching on i
your farms by giving some small re- j
ward. Hunt your hedge-rows with ;
dogs and t*row, 0«t your neighbors (
