GOOD BUYING CROWD AT DUROG HOG SALE; EARLY PRICES HIGH A comfortably warnied and well lighted sales pavilion, for the Rose Hill Farm Duroc Jersey hog sale Wednesday afternoon, a real buying crowd already half sold by advertising, and satisfied by a liberal and attractive plate lunch, - served free of charge, and the inclusion in the sale of a number of sows bred to Uneeda Sensation, the famous Illinois boar, all combined to bring the probable sale average within sight of the $100 mark before the sale was half finished. Sales started with a lively swing when the first sow led into the rins fetched an initial bid of $50, was rapidly run up to the $100 mark and bid off to R. G. Leed3 at $110. Mr. Leeds was a strong bidder at the beginning of the sale taking the first three, the second and third at prices of $100 each. Two of the sows were of Woodford Sensation breeding, and bred for spring farrow to Stilt's Top Colonel, the other a Stilt's sow bred to Hill Top Colonel. Prices Take Slump Prices took a slump after the first few sales, several sows going at prices around $50, two being bought by Riley Laymon of Dublin for $46 apiece. "There was a rapid and sensational recovery, however, when the first of the sows bred to Uneeda Orion Sensation was driven into the ring. One of the firm of Telling Brothers, of Danville, III., bankers and Duroc breeders and owner of the great boar, explained that the sow was one of their own breeding exchanged for one of Joe Hill's which had died on their farm. Before he had finished talking, low voiced bidding among the crowd, which had started at an initial figure cf $100 before bids had been asked, had run up to $150 for the opening of the bids and wiihin a few seconds afterward, went on to $250 and with little urging to a final purchase price of $300 which was paid by R. G. Leeds. Mr. Leeds also bought he next sow, of Stilt's breeding and bred to the Illinois boar also, paying the same price of $300 for her after bidding had started at $100. Another bred to the same boar also started at $100. -Bidding is Lively While a total of 52 hogs was listed in the sale, bidding was lively and : the sale was cleaned up in good time. It was noted that buyers and breeders ."'were present from a distance, both Indiana and Ohio being well represented, of course, while a scattering was present from more distant states or represented by bids in the hands of field men. Such bidders as Hildebolt. Bob Stewart, Wilcoxen, Roy Carson, Caldwells of Milton, Joe Markey and D. R. Funk represented the local breeds, and a large number of farm- - ers who are getting into the game in. a small way'also were present to pick up the scattering attractions at the , cheaper prices. Luncheon was served to 80 people before the sale by John Zwissler. The sale was cried by Perry Bragg, with . sale ring assistance by Button, Wed- , die and Gooding. . Scholastic Excellence ; Of Earlham Athletes Arouses East's Interest WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 7 The announcement recently made by Earlham college officials that athletic students at that institution have better grades' in their studies than the averpce student who does; not participate in col leg? .sports has. been the subject of considerable discussion in eastern colleges and universities and in the press. A correspondent for the New York Evening Post writes: "One by one cherished notions go into the discard. A few years ago investigation showed that members of college fraternities averaged about as well in their "scholastic standing as nonmeinbers. Now comes Earlham college, Indiana, with evidence that tar athletes carry more college work, and carry it better, than do nonathlets. The average number of credit hours for nonathletes and athletes who have not won the right to wear the college letter at Earlham last year was 27,649. For letter men it was 29,946. . Of credit points per hour the nonletter men attained 1.581 the letter men. 1,649. After this we shall not be surprised to learn that members of college debating teams always have difficulty in passing intelligence tests." Short News of City Entertain Bibie Class The Star Bible class of the Second Presbyterian church was entertained at the home of Mrs. Will Massey on North Twenty-first street Tuesday evening. Mrs. C.

CARD ENDS BLOCK'S TRIP IN 13 YEARS Mail deliveries are as uncertain as the sender, is the theory upon which local postoffice officials account for the birthday card delivered Wednesday at the home of Mrs. O. E. Thomas after a delay of almost 13 years. But even that theory i3 subject to discount in this case, for it seems that Richmond's great growth has caused the card in question to travel from April 22, 1910 to Feb. 7, 1923 while trying to go only one city block. The . card was addressed to Mrs. Louisa A. Bailey, mother of Mrs. Thomas, who has been dead for four years. Certainly tne mail man knew where the card belonged for prior to Mrs. Mailey's death she had lived in the same ihouse on Ridge street for 45 years. Mrs. Thaddeus Personett, neighbor of Mrs. Bailey, is the author of the card. A Stitch in Time Saves Nine How true this old adage is. A rip or tear promptly mended requires only a few stitches.

They are varied and intricate in design, striking and beautiful in color, and exquisite in workmanship. The Slendang, or scarf, of a noble woman of r royal descent which was worn in a province of the west coast of Sumatra is shown. It is a very rare piece of the late 17 th century. These garments were worn only on festive occasions ? Pandang-Pandjang, the province, supplied the rich with gold and silver threads interwoven fabrics, a visible evidence of the wealth of the population in by-gone days. The cujtom of weaving and wearing these costly attires vanished through poverty and European influence. The industry sunk into oblivion and only inferior textiles are now woven there. Three wedding shawls are in the collection, two very rare specimens, one having silver designs which are especially unique. , Another woman's slendang shows the remarkable gold-thread-laces . used for hemming costly woven goods.

In a bucking contest between a 260 ton electric gearless passenger locomotive and a 278 ton mallet freight locomotive, the electric locomotive proved superior. This test was staged at Kent.
