They were convicted of complicity in the killing of Ralp Wilcox, of Galion, 0.. during a holdup of his filling station June 27 last year. The youths appeared resigned as they went to the chair. McCartney, the only on who showed any emotion over his impending death, was plainly worried as he -. alked from i his cell to the execution chamber. I o — GRANT LOWE IS FOUND IN DITCH (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) cd death was due to concussion of; the brain caused by a blow on the head. The theory was advanced that Lcwe had been s ruck and then thrown into the ditch from I an auto. No arrests have been although several persons were questioned. Mrs. Fteada Creaman, at whose bouse Lowe lived, said members of her household put the roomer to bed Thursday night while he was intoxicated, but later he arose and crept away unnoticed. She told authorities Lowr threatened to go to Newcastle and kill Bill Ross." and to "kill the man that marries Carrie McConnell." Miss McConnell said Lowe had attempted to break into her room two weeks ago while armed with a revolver. Lowe came to Muncie from Newcastle last December.

A survey of the lives of some of .our “Princes of Industry" produces :som? very interesting facts on the I subject. I Thomas E.vison, inventive "Wiz;ard" cf Orange, N. J., states that lup to a few years ago he found ‘that four hours sleep gave him sufI ficient rest and renewed vitality to start another day’s work. Recently, how ver, he has been having six hours. Not that he feels in . med of more sleep, but because Mrs. Edison, who, he says, knows ; best, has persuaded him. Henry Ford, the man who made America aiitomobiie-mind'd, epn- • fesses to six hours sleep, but adds, ’ | that, as it takes him three hours :;to get to sleep, he actually spends ■nine hours in bed. ’I Sir William O pen, one of our | groat'st contemporary artists, is frank in admitting that he could . not possibly get along with less : than twelve hours sleep. . I Sir Henry Deterding, British oil • magnates, says that he is perfectly satisfied if he can sleep uniliir ruptedly for seven or eight hours I—not less than seven. Another

He insisted that six hours of < the twenty-feur was ample for any- | • one. His remarks to his troops oni> the subjtct have often been quot-jj, i ed bv advocates of the “less sleep { i idea.” 1 ] He said that six hours’ sleep was < 1 more than enough for a man. A t woman, he thought, needed seven; 1 ' and for a fool ha prescribed eight t 1 One wonders hew he spent all bis > time on St. Helena. Now, these were all great men 1 ' -.(some still are) in their own par-; r ticuhjr field; but as the variation. I of their sleeping hours ranged from’ four to twelve hours, then obvious-' ’ ly the recipe for greatn ss does.’ ■ not lie in the amount of sleep we 5 have. I H ’ Recently American University ] ’i specialists experimented on a num- ( ber of students and came to the j conclusion that if sleep can be re- - dttced from eight to six hours jt , will be beneficial to the sleeper. ; The trouble is that an enthusiast j B on reading that report—if he b? a , 3 six-hour sleeper—will endeavor to cqt. his time down to four hours, r thereby running foul cf another I s curious law pertaining to sle p. ill Nerve specialists will tell you that s j should a person, whose minimum; i amount of sleep is six hours, de I l .cide to get along with four hours,' y I then his adverse balance of tweh -{bsurs per day is carried forward si with cumulative effect until he ber | comes so much in arrears that he

oruers m no uncertain terms, that he catch up on his sleep due him or have a nervous breakdown. I A talk on sleep would not be ( complete without mention of the 1 claim put forward by Mr. Pauli' Hern, ex-Austrian army veteran,! who claims that he has not slept { since being wounded in the head ■ during the Great War. A lot has! been written in substantiation andi contradiction of his claim and be-!' tween the pros and cons it is impossible to get at the truth of the matter. o DECATUR BOY MAKING GOOD AS EDITOR ,CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ‘The original student thinker who stands out from the crowd doos not Io bis thinking in the classroom, he knows that he would be howled down therefor. His bursts of brilliancy are largely extracurricular, a mere student activity, where he may shine unhampered.

JANUARY BREAKS WEATHER RECORD ' r ■ i 1 " ■ — I £ (CONTINJaD ONS) i t eastern. At Chicago, a shift of the'* winds about noon prevented the j { mercury from reaching an all time i high record for January. As it was, it climbed to 49, within a degree of tile high mark of 50 set in 1913. Some other high marks for the day were: Cincinnati, 58; Indian- 1 apolis, 56; Des Moines. 54; St.j* Louis. 66; Oklahoma City, 72; Lit- ’ tie Rock. 74; Bismarck. 54; Denver, 56; Pheonix, 78; Los Angeles, ' 74; Minneapolis, 46; and Wichita. 68.

Precipitation there in 1930 was 12.13 less than in an ord- ( inary year, and the first month of' 1931 has added 1.78 inches more 1 ' to this shortage. Farm experts meeting there this week declared < thd situation was alarming and ] that unless rain or snow fell soon i all crops would be seriously harm- ■ ed. t In Wisconsin, which ordinarily ' covered with a heavy blanket of < snow throughout January snakes ! were seen crawling about in the < grass near Baraboo and at Eau i' Claire a mole was seen surtuiUi ' himself on a lawn. In Chicago, the unusual weather! was blamed in part tor an increase of 28 per cent over January, 1930. in the number of deaths from pneumonia. Authorities had various theories about the unusual month. Pref. Griffith Taylor who has charge of climatology research at the University of Chicago, blamed it to sun spots. ■ o Oriental Fish Live on Land Durham, N. C.
