OLD SMITHY IS RUN X iL ; " BY EIGHTH IN LINE GIRL SWIMS FOUR MILES TO CALL AID Stands Where Ancestor Built It 250 Years Ago. Exhausted After Hard Fight With Heavy Seas. New York. A nineteen-year-ol- d girl swam four miles through heavy seas to summon aid for her sweetheart and two friends who had been thrown into the ocean when their motor launch capsized. Coast guardsmen and life savers rescued her companions off Rock away beach shortly before dawn. , The girl, Marjorie Murray of Woodmere, N. Y., was near exhaustion when she reached the beach and reported the accident to Albert Allspach, who had been Ashing in the surf. Miss Murray and her fiance, Arnold McCloat, twenty-on- e years old, had accompanied Helen McNiff, nineteen, and John Jancoski, twenty-two, on a .moonlight cruise in Jancoskies launch, the Mary Ann. They had failed to receive coast guard warnings that the sea was too rough for small boats. The boat developed motor trouble. Miss Murray said, and finally the engine stopped.

When John Pratt, with his wife and children and his household goods, moved to this village in 1678 and set himself up as a blacksmith, he scarcely would have imagined that 250 years later there would still be a blacksmith shop in operation on the same spot and that the proprietor would be his lineal descendant. ' Hundreds of persons stop every summer to ask about what is said to be the oldest business in the country that has always been in the hands of one family and to talk to James Lord Pratt, the present owner and eighth generation from the founder. Jim Pratt is not sure how many buildings the family has used in conducting the smithy business for two and a half centuries. The present shop, he knows, was built by his grandfather eighty years ago to take care of an iron business expanding with the building of clipper ships on the Connecticut river : London, England. Amy Johnson, heroine of the first eo!o flight by a woman from England to Australia, lias decided to give up flying. Knowing that Empire air liners and the royal air force are better able to make record dashes to South Africa and Australia, and seeing tlue Russians flying over the pole, she believes there is nowhere in the world to fly to and set up new 'records except with the backing of government finances. "Fly?" she said. It is the last thing I would dream of doing now. If I saw any prospects of doing anything by flying again 1 would go ahead. No, I am just going around now wondering what on earth I am to do with life. "But I am not going to fly, I dont know what Im going to do. In the old days it was my business to be photographed and interviewed with Jim, my husband. For me all that terrific publicity is now ended. Has Earned Thousands. Miss Johnson has been a good business woman. In ten years of spectacular flying, with half a dozen great flights to her credit, she has made many thousands of dollars. She has lived in fashionable hotels and saved enough to buy a fine house in London and expensive cars. Ever since that memorable day in 1926 9,900-mil- Rock-swa- y.

The lands usually consisted of large tracts and the title was deemed to vest in the inhabitants, in the commoners, in the original proprietors, and, usually, in theory, in the king of England, under whom they held title. The time came," explains the journal, "when it was deemed advisable to divide the lands among individuals, and many were the disputes in proprietor meetings or in town meetings between proprietors, inhabitants and commoners in respect to the divis:on. Sometimes the proprietors claimed ownership far themselves to the exclusion of the other inhabitants of the community and held proprietor meetings, as distinguished from town meetings, and made the division among themselves. Sometimes the distinction between proprietor meetings and town meetings had been lost, and oftentimes the right to share in the division, in so, far as inhabitants who were not proprietors were concerned, rested upon which had a or otherwise. majority! physical Sometimes the division was made by number, each getting an equal share; sometimes it depended upon the amount of taxes which a person paid, the larger taxpayer receiving the larger quantity of land. Sometimes the division was made by the meeting, but frequently by a committee selected to make a survey and to lay out the land. In any event, the lands allotted were usually large farms, with a share of pasture land, wood lot, land for cultivation, a house lot, and often an undivided share in the commons. , - Honolulu, Hawaii.

The giant tuna was hooked off the shores of this island, not far from Honolulu near the spot where, last summer, Harvey broke his first world mark by hauling in a marlin swordfish. This 1936 record still stands. The Honolulu fishermans present haul smashes a record which has stood since 1899, when Col. C. P. yelMorehouse landed a low fin tuna off Catalina Island. Harvey battled the big prize for three hours before bringing him to gaff. The catch was made with an split bamboo rod and reguline. lation On the same day that he established the new mark, Harvey and three other members of his fishing party landed four other giant tuna' the five fish totaling 827 pounds. At the same time that Harvey was playing his big one, another fisherman on the same boat was battling Two of the others a each weighed 120 pounds, and the fifth fish the smallest was 105 2nd FOCI'S Imae must King s 265-pou- FUSION Srd There should be a single mental Impression.

Edison Averaged About 18 Hours a Day at Work Edison always had a hundred things he was burning to try. If he was away from his work, he made a long list of things to be done, next day. Putting salt on the tail of an idea, was his happiness and when some experiment turned out successfully, he would dance about, to his assistants amazement. On one of his birthdays, a visitor expressed the wish that Edison would live many more years. Taking the usual little pencil stub from his vest pocket he made a careful calculation and then said, How would it be to live about 145 years? Ive just figured that Im working double shift, so compared with the average single shift man, if I live to be eighty Id really be one hundred forty-fiv- e years old. Edisons energy was vital and tremendous. He worked about 18 hours a day. And he was a night owl by choice. But when he was fagged he could hit the hay" and sleep like a baby. Short raps after exhaustion brought him back to a task completely refreshed. He once said: Most men do their work in a series of efforts that require a lot more time than continuous application when 1 have a p until I problem, there is no get somewhere on it.

P. H. Brombash, manager of the safekeeping department of the First National Bank & Trust company, finally succeeded in collecting the four cents the bank and Francis A. Chamberlain, executive committee chairman, have owed him for all these years. It came about like this: In 1897, Chamberlain, then cashier of the Security National bank which later merged with the First National, hired Brombash as a messenger boy. His salary was to have been $100 the first year. His pay was given him monthly and amounted to $8.33. Those payments amounted to only $99.96. And for some reason, the bank never made up the odd four cents. For 40 years Brombash continued his services to the bank, being promoted finally to head of the safekeeping department. On completion of his fortieth year with the bank, he mentioned the four cents to Chamberlain. A meeting of the banks executive committee was called. And it was voted to settle the long standing account. The four cents was paid. Brombash agreed to waive the interest, which would have amounted to about six cents.

No one dared hope that this inexperienced aviatrix, with not more than 90 hours in the air to her credit, could perform such a feat. A newspaper scoffed when Amy offered to write a story of her trip (if she completed it). Later that same newspaper had to pay Amy, always the business woman, $50,000 to go on a flying tour for it. The next year July, 1931 Amy o set off for a flight with her tutor, C. S. Humphreys. They made this run in the record time of lOVfc days. Broke Three Records.
