"Women of the Bible" was the (subject of the very interesting pa- ; per written by Mrs. Helen Blossom and read by Mrs. Noah Frye. The record of the Women of ‘lie i Bible from the time of Eve shows [that they were not unlike our woI men of today, that some were extremely good, some benevolent, some patriotic and some had executive ability. Some theological writ ers of the last century took pains to build up a “sanctified halo" around the women characters mentioned in the Bible, but the fact of their names being mentioned is no reason to believe they were any better than the women of the present time. The lives of some of the most important characters were given in sub-topics by several members. Short reports of the District Federation Convention held at Bluffton were given by Mrs. J. C. Sutton, Mrs John Tyndall, and Mrs. Charles D. Teepie. The next meeting will be held with Mrs. John Tyndall and MrsC. E. Peterson will have the paper. MRS. M. E. HOWER READS INTERESTING PAPER The regular monthly meeting of the Historical Club was held at the home of Mrs. Harl Hollingsworth on High street, Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. M. E. Hower had the paper for the study hour, and her subject was, “From Old to New in Manufacturing.” For a background Mrs. Hower painted a word picture of the pioneer forefathers. supplying their wants by their own handicraft. These handicrafts she traced from that beginning to the present day manufacturers. Heat —a chimney and a fireplace, stoves, furnaces, and now immense ' heating plants of steam and hot i water. Light was traced from

Textiles: every step from the raising of cotton, wool, and flax, to the finished garment was done in the home. Now all of this is taken care of in factories. Many other commodities were traced from their humble home beginning. The club members al*so added to the list many things that in their memories used to be made in the home but are now manufactured commercially on a large scale. Several remembered soap made of lye from wood ashes, and bits of grease saved for that i mrpose. Scouring powder, which had its humble beginning from brick dust. The first automobiles and the first automobile rides were recollected by several members. During the business session Mrs. Homer Lower gave a report of 'he District Convention of the Federation of (Tubs which was held in B’uffton, Tuesday. Mrs. Delton Passwater and Mrs. Sam Butler were welcomed as new members into the organization. At the close of the meeting a social hour was enjoyed, and the hostess, assisted IJy Mrs. Roy i Runyon served delectable refreshments. Tlie next meeting will be held with Mrs. Homer Lower, next Wednesday afternoon, and Mrs. J. M. Miller will have the paper. ODOR IDENTIFIES OWNER OF MONEY I Paris, March (UP) —A judgment worthy of Solomon was made when a Parisian police commissaire determined the ownership of a lO'.> franc note by its smell. Sitting on the terrace of a case, Tequented by Americans, in Montparnasses, Mlle. Louise Conseil. 22 discovered she was missing a 100 franc note. She dashed after a man who had just picked up something n front of her table. She caught up with him and accused him of taking the money, hut he denied the charge. A heated argument followed. Then a policeman came along and took them both to a nearby commissariat where they were questioned. The man was searched and a 100 franc note was found but he claimed it was his. The commissaire smelled the note and Then sniffed at the girl’s handbag. They both were fragrant with the same powder so he ordered the man arrested and handed the money over to the girl. Great Britain's Railroad Tracks 51,000 Miles Long London, Mar. — <U.R) — There are 51,000 miles of single railroad track in Great Britain which cost over $30,000,000 per annum to maintain, apart from renewals. Between 1,200 and 1,300 miles of track are renewed annually. Nearly 210,000 tons of rails, $4,500,000 sleepers and 2,000 000 tons of ballast are required in this work. Most of the relaying work is done at night and over the week-end to avoid interference. Track-laying machines which lift out complete sections of about 45 to 60 feet of track and place new sections in their place are used. Last year a total of 1.705,000,000 passengers journeys were made over the 51,000 miles of track.
