They are so proud of their handiwork that they are going to ar- range their houses, when completed, in a regular city row, and will have gardens surrounding these palatial estates. The grounds are swarming every hour that they are open with little girls waiting to get to work on their doll houses and furniture or already busily employed in such work. This Fis the only playground where furni- ture-making is carried on that has achieved the great triumph of mak- ing a gas stove and a phonograph. “Che furniture is made In sets for rooms and then the houses are built srding to the number of rooms al- ready furnished and ready. for hous- ing. Undoubtedly this is a rather novel home building, but it seems most satisfactory. Bedroom furniture is the most pop- | from this playground ~and dining {room furniture comes second. Prob- {ably the reason parlor and kitchen furniture are not so popular is that the pieces used for these rooms are rather difficult to make. The other morning when a small zroup of visitors went out to this playground with the director the ine in which they arrived was| ulfed in eddies of excited small waitng for the playground i s to be opened, So that they could get to work, and crowds of children | Sirrounded the wates themselves.

FTER blowing away the tons of chaff from the great sheaves of advice which have been piled upon the modern girl, one finds a real kernel of wisdom in the suzgestion, “Girls, be careful and dom't cultivate ingrowing souls.” Introspection has always been con- sidered more of a_feminine than a masculine failing. Men have been too busy, usually, with their money af- fairs to allow their souls very long periods of self-examination, with the exception, of course, of the free-verse poet who' writes of purple cows and red moons. Certainly every excuse has been of- fered the girl of today to make her think of herself and try all fifty- seven varieties of self-analysis, and then some. However, the fact that the modern girl is genuinely inter- ested in developing a business or pro- fessional career for herself will prob- ably counterbalance much of this know-yourself advice and'a few girls will really have the time to indulge in the rather doubtful luxury of cul- tivating too close an acquaintance with their soul: To Read @he Fuening Staf— £ E note.

BRISTOL, Tenn., August 12— Franklin Smith, superintendent of the mountain Sunday school at Rose- dale, in the heart of the Tennessee mountain region, and former presi- dent of the Sullivan County Sunday School Association, may be a moon= shiner. Probably he is. because he was arrested with a companion far back in the Holston mountains, oper- ating a big still, and frankly admitted it, when the revenue agents ap- peared. Smith very likely will get a jail sentence when he 18 brought to trial, having been caught red-handed. But, whatever happens, his standing in the community will be unimpaired. And there is the secret of the moun- tain men’s philosophy. When he re- turns to take charge of his Sunday school his friends will welcome him with open arms. In the view of the mountain people he committed no crime, he simply made a little liquor' for his own use. That is the secrét here. The native mountaineers do not always con- done making {llicit whisky to sell. Those who do it are considered well down in the social scale. But when Smith was arrested he told his cap- tors that he was making it so that he might have a supply on hand “for Head Faces Jail Term on Liquor -Charge the ‘boys, when they drap round in evenin' This declaration gave him a clean bill of health at home. Suspected of Sell The revenue officers insiet, however, that Smith and his partner, Jim Booher, have been letting part, at least, of their product go to profes- sional runners. This the pair vigor- ously deny. - “’Tain’t right and we ought not.1o stand for it,” declared “Uncle” Charlie Mercer, a close friend of Smith’s, yes- terday. “Thar wuz Frank up thar mindin’ his ewn business and long comes these revenuers and shove him in jail. For what? Nothin’ at all. We folks had nuthin’ to say about this here prohibition, but it wuz shoved off on us.

Most mountain folk do. But that never hurts so long as they don’t get drunk. And what whisky 18 made ir the Holston mountain scction is not sold. The people grow their corn and they feel they have a right to use it any way they please withgut being interfered with. They let the farmers up in New England and other places make all the cider they want® from their own apples. Why can't they let the mountain people use their own crops as they want 107" Tracks of oxen led the officers to the still in the Big Creek section.
