Judges doffed their robes. Cops shed their coats. Beach es -were jammed with heat sufferers and practically any costume was okayed. Shorts, which usually are reserved for the tennis courts, made their appearance on city streets. Ice cream and beer ran ncek and neck for sales records. Hydrants were opened in the slum districts of heat stricken cities as urchins yelped their glee at the chilling spray that poured forth. At Philadelphia, four $50,000 elec tric transformers exploded in the heat, leaving the southwestern sec tion of the city without power for several hours. Thermometers placed in the sun at Philadelphia touched 120 degrees and then burst. A vac uum-sealed thermometer placed in the blazing sun at New York reached 145 degrees. There were many reports of bridge plates expanding several inches in the heat. In several instances, bridge tenders were unable to lower draw bridges after they had been raised, until city firemen were called to hose down the bridges and cool the spar, so that it could be returned to serv ice. Almost every city in the heat zone reported the usual incident of eggs being fried on thep avement. Work ers on WPA projects in many cities were dismissed when the heat be came unbearable. The heat prostra tion and drowning death toll soared higher by the hour. Tsousands were treated for colapse brought on by the heat and hundreds were rescued from drowning by lifeguards at the crowd ed beaches. Heavy storms in Massachusetts, centering on Worcester, did consider able damage. Hail fell in parts of New Jersey and ripped corn and oth er standing crops to shreds. At Two Rivers, Wisconsin, a crew of WPA workers uncovered a long snowdrift, buried under tons of earth. The foreman on the job packai the snow into a truck and took it into town, where a snow-ball fight was staged under temperatures close to 100 de grees. At Yonkers, New York, a crew of WPA men accidentally turn ed steam heat on in a high school building. Members of a summer school class fled to the street, where it was comparatively coo lat only 99 degrees. Towns with unusual name* fur nished their annual news tid-bits. The hamlet of Hell, Michigan, which froze over last winter ,is living up to its name today. Frost, Minnestoa, was anything but frosty. Devil’s Lake, North Dakota, curiously enough was one of the coolest places in the heat belt, by virtue of a heavy shower. A night and day of intense heat in lower New England were followed by three consecutive electrical storms that left a million dollars in damage behind them today. Rain and hail which was swept over the countryside by a 60-mile an hour gale, played havoc with power lines, roofs and fruit orchards in New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Worcester, Mass., was hit hard. Damage ran about SIOO,OOO, More than 50 communities were with out electricity for hours. Three per sons died in the storm: many more were injured.

ZIPPERER, Notary Public, C. C., Ga. Commission Expires Jan. 31 1940 ADVENTURES OF JOE AND SUE By— JOHN W. WESTON PREPARATIONS FOR THE TRIP JOE had just completed a garage Jar his horseless charabanc. To over haul the second hand car waa the next important job, lubricate the creaking Joints, tighten nuts and quench its thirst. A voice came from an upper win dow: “What yer doin’ down there so long, JOE?” “I’m an a picnic, my tummy’s holdin’ up the car, and my legs is a fillin’ station for mosquitoes.” There was a tense moment of si lenoe. Then “JOE! JOE—JOE—!” “But must I put yer fishin’ tackle in the hat box?” “I’ll say, sink them duds in, and drop the pipe an* ’bacco with them shirts, don’t bother me no more, I’m all tangled up down here, this ole bus is crippled muchly, worse than a rheumatic mule.” . A short spell of comfort— “l’ll put some sandwiches an’ cocas in yfr panama. How’s that fer eats, grumpy?” “Let me ’lone won’t yer? go tell it to MoGlnty.” The Lias? which JOS had traded in, rather needed a well earned vacation end much requisite repairs. He was on his back beneath the rusty machine, his faee dappled with drippings, hie hands black with grit, in a sulky mood he now slowly wrig gled out sidewise, jacked up the car then strode upetaim to inspect SUE’S packing. "Now get this, I’ve got my troubles with that circus wagon, an ’I ain’t jes sayin’ it. How’s you makin’ out?” “Alrite! I put in yer spellin’ book an* my dictionary you gave me for Christmas.” A little suggestion now came from JOE “Say Skipper, load in with that car go some corn liquor and apple jack, they’re good cronies when yer run down an’ blue. “Okay be me an’sponsin’we take some needles from the medicine chest? Hair tonic, castor oil an’ tal cum—if we’re goin’ to meet the four hundred they’ll sure help along: we jes got to shake a leg an’ be in for sum good time.” “Sez you? well I’ll hafter go down an’ fill up that oil can.” “Ain’t you gettin’ mighty tired, JOE?” JOE hunched forward for a mo ment, his elbows on his knees. “Yu’re teliin’ me? a little more don’t make no dlf’rence.” ‘TU fix yer a cup o’ tea.” “If that don’t listen like a doctor, I ain’t go no time fer argument.” “Touchy ain’t yer?” SUE swapped no naore gabble but kept on with the preparations. JOE went to the car and started the engine. There was a succession of screeches and clanking*, it back fired, thundered, then stopped, only a hissing sound remaining. Again from the top window, out bobbed SUE’S head to summon her man. The ex-kelser is said to be very proud of his beard. And no wonder, It’s his only achievement since he bought a one-way ticket from Berlin in 1918. PAGE SEVEN “JOE! JOE— JOE—!” no reply came. Looking down she notioed someth ing stretched out beneath the cax e it happened to be JOE. Then came a yell that started the weather—cooking spinning like a dervish dancing, and she rushed down to mack an examination of the fam ily mainspring. “JOE, is yer hurt much?” ‘Tm jes practisin’ to give JIM JEFFRIES a real knock out.’* Up he arose, there was more tink ering, a few new bolts aided the crip pled machine. The next afternoon JOE packed tools away in a battered box, and the happy pair set on) in high glee on their anticipated journey. ” Driving through the. staggley vfl lage, the flivver plugged along, jolt ing over the grade crossing agpdnst the warning of a locomotive’s whistle. Tiny lights twinkled on the out skirts of a town, the over-drived car made a sudden stop as its radiator ex pelled vapor. A oountry hostelry stood by the side of the road, and here they roosted for the night. (To be Continued) I ALL / Op4LV *6K& /_hV eet>S '^jk jrapE w **m TASTE wSfP* nu
