THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1925. CHURCH MEMBERS. We are happily getting away from the idea that because a man attended church regularly and abstained from drinking, smoking, swearing and from things that were generally recognized as wrong he was a Christian and an asset to the community. To-day, ministers are preaching a more positive type of religion. They are not so greatly interested in warn- ing their congregation not to do cer- tain things which aie evil as they do in urging Christians to do good. Christianity is becoming construc- tive. It is not what a man\ doesn't do So much as what he can and will do for the uplift and upbuilding of his community which stamps him as a positive type of Christian. THE COUNTRY DOCTOR. The following is from the pen of \The Rounder\ in the St. Lawrence Plaindealer, Canton: The country doctor is passing. Those who are still with us are reap- ing the benefits of better roads, of quicker and easier transportation. They have seen long hours of pos- sible anxiety in a battle for life and death shifted to other shoulders by the increasing _ number of hospitals. They have seen the progress 01 medicine. They have eagerly seized all that was desirable, the best, and have applied it\ in practice. Some of them, by years of frugality, have ac- cumulated a small sufficiency for old age. Their lives have been filled with the richness of unselfishness. But not only are the days of the country physician passing, but pass- ing are the days of any country phy- sician and what is the country doing, or going to do about it; The city calls the young man. Who is there to take the place of our country doctors? Count the physicians in Canton and then number their years. How much longer can even the young- est be relied upon to be with us ? Who will step into the practice of the old- est? The city medical schools is to- day turning out\ specialists and there is no place for them in the country nor do they care for a place. Where it once took three years to fit oneself to practice in the home, it now take.\ eight years to get a diploma entitling a young man or woman to practice, and the training has been elementary so far as home practice is concerned as compared with the \whooping cough\ doctor, the family doctor. To-day there are large and com- pact rural communities literally with- out a doctor. What is the answer? mmam TEACH FIRE PREVENTION IN SCHOOLS. —o— The Insurance Age Journal of Marblehead, Mass., says: \Certain national tendencies which seem to bo inherent -within the hearts of young and irresponsible people in this coun- try make them too fond of fires to seek their prevention seriously. They love to see the engines and other ap- paratus dashing madly through the streets; to- thrill at the sound of the sirens and gongs; and to fall in with th'e ever-increasing group hurrying in the indicated direction asking 'where's the fire?' \Once at the conflagration, with the possible exception of dwelling houses, hope against hope is expressed that the fire will not be extinguished too soon, that it shall continue to amuse. Everyone wants to see a big fire. If it's a business or commercial build- ing, they think, 'the owner's carry- ing insurance, so where's the loss? 1 ' Physical culture is a part of school and college work in order to benefit individuals physically and prolong life. When one considers that last year some 15,000 persons were killed in fires, not to mention those injured, and that over $500,000,000 worth of property went up in smoke, it would seem that one of the greatest servicer that our public schools and colleger could render to the coming genera- tion would be regular and systematic instruction in fire prevention work. Every single person in the land if of necessity forced to use fire in some form or other. Then why should they go uninstructed as to proper methods* in safeguarding its use? DEFEATS GEO. DONALDSON FOR SUPERVISOR BY 83 VOTES. Election day, Tuesday, was ideal in every respect, and the electors»of the four districts in the town of Cape Vin- cent took advantage of it and went to the polls to register their choice of candidates for the var-ious town offices. The candidates for the office of : supervisor; George Donaldson, Demo- crat, of St. Lawrence, and John R. .(ilborn, Republican, of this village, .vaged a very aggressive campaign and did everything possible to get out the vote. The Eagle regrets .very much to be obliged to state that Mr. Donaldson was defeated, as we are confident that he would have made a good supervisor for the town.. The Republicans also elected their candi* late for superintendent of highways,' Kphiram L. Barker, he defeating . \icholas Reft*, Democrat.

LOSE Ell MARINERS EXPECT PORTS TO BE ICE LOCKED BY DECEM- BER, Navigation on the waters of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence will be closed early this year according to tbe opinion of veteran lake mariners. It is likely that ports will be ice- locked by December, if the early cold and snow of October are followed by like weather in December. Late fall ducks have been decoying since the forepart of the month. The early ap- pearance of these birds leads hunters and sailors to predict an early whiter. The lack of hard coal is another condition that is apt to tie up the. vessels early this year, Large quan- tities of coal are generally being ship- ped to Canada at this time of year, but this traffic is now reduced to a' minimum. Some soft coal is being carried and may tide navigation over the usual period. The lights are darkened and the •buoys and markers are taken up each year around December 15 in the wa- ters c-f the lake and river. The clos- ing date is governer \to some extent by the weather, although it largely depends on the cancellation of in- •.urance on ship cargoes. Each fall is a period of sudden •jales and every season at least one nishap occurs at this end of the 1-alce, iften with loss of life. Last year the iteam freighter McTier grounded' on otony Point and later was in trouble with a lig-hter in Black River bay, •ifter being' blown from anchorage at oackots. Harbor. At least one' wreck has occurred •luring this season each year in the \icinity of the Jefferson county shore ir near the Main Ducks, one of the most dangerous parts on the lake for 'u-te navigation.

Comins, Comins, Comins, Early Settlers' Hard Time With Toothache An Interesting and Instructive his- tory could be written on the care of the teeth. We have plenty of tomes which deal with battles, treaties, kings and presidents,\ But ths history of dentistry la not so well known. There is no denying -thai the record of Lewis and Clark makes entertaining reading, but vre should llko to know some day how Daniel Boon*, or, to come closer home, how pioneers In the Chemung valley wrestled with wicked molars.

When parents lose patience with school teachers, because their disci- plinary measures seem too severe, they frequently make the very grave mistake of not examining their own responsibility in the matter. When they admit that their own children are beyond their control, is it scarcely fair to blame teachers for using measures that to them seem needless ? In signing a contract, teachers do not take the obligation of parent- hood. They only agree to teach the children sent to them to the best of their ability. They do not control their conduct outside of the school room, neither do they have any re- sponsibility for traits possessed by children, which interfere with the orderly conduct of the school. These are matters that parents— especially when their children reach high school age—should give serious consideration. If they have made a failure in discipline at home, what can they honestly expect from the schools? Dressing the Part There's a story that has to do with a stage manager who was rehearsing a mob scene for a new play. After he had directed the men who had been selected for the scene he told them to report at the theater that evening, adding: \This scene we've rehearsed takes place in Russia, and I want all you guys In far overcoats.\ \But I haven't got a fur overcoat,\ protested one of the poor actors. \That's none of my business,\ re- plied the stage manager. \If you're not dressed for Russia I won't let you ga on.\ The extra arrived at -the , theater that night—but without a fur coat. \Didn't I tell you I wouldn't let you go on unless you were dressed for Russia?\ said the manager. \But I've got on two suits of under- wear,\ protested the poor actor. Arrows Used by Aztecs The Smithsonian Institution says that the South American curare (and other native names) poison for arrows concocted from stryshnos nux-vomloa did not extend to Mexico, There ia little reliable Information on what poi- son, If any, was used by the Aztecs and other Mexicans on arrows. One reference says that nrrows were dipped in the acrid juice of leaf of an agave, but the species is not given. The Aztecs were adepts In the proper- ties of plants, and aside from the wound, could have made on arrow very disagreeable.

Let him have a chance at your child I So says Dr. Martha M. Eliot, direc- tor of child hygiene of the children's burean, United States Department of Labor, urging \more sunlight for babies.\ Doctor Eliot Is directing a demon- stration of the control of rickets In New Haven, Conn., In which- the chil- dren's bureau and the pediatric de- partment of the Yale school of medi- cine are eo-operatlng. This demon- stration has prnvad again the power of the sun In preventing ami curing rickets. \In the campaign for better babies and healthier children,\ says Doctor Bllot \more stress must be laid upon sunlight. The baby or little child who has been kept out of doors and tanned by the sun Is strikingly healthy and vigorous In contrast to the pale flabby baby or child who has been kept in- doors. \When the sun's rays are analyzed by the physicist, it Is found that some of them produce visible light which can bo divided by a prism Into the well-known spectrum of colors, red. orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. It Is also found that beyond each end of this visible spectrum there are in- visible rays; at the red end, the Infra- red rays which produce heat, at the violet end, the ultra-violet rays and 3t-rays. It Is these ultra-violet rays which have so powerful an effect on living matter, destroying bacteria, healing tuberculosis and rickets. When sunlight shines through window- glass, the visible light and the heat rays pass through, but the ultra-violet rays do not penetrate beyond the glass.\ Why Waters of Ocean Vary in Their Color Near tbe shore, the sea often changes Its color to green. A stretch of white sand below shallow water will cause It to appear wnter-gray, or light green, while a deep yellow- colored sand, joined with the blue of the water, produces n darker green. IS the Bay of Loango the water ap- pears to be deep red, which Is on ac- count of the red bottom. Another cause of water colors is the large numbers of minute organisms always present. In some of the salt lakes of Tibet, and In the south of France, a certain red organism gives to the water a vivid crimson hue. When a rope Is thrown over the side of a boat, It Is sometimes found that the water Is phosphorescent. The drops of water hang to the rope like a blazing necklace of pearls! At one \arm of the sea\ In Great Britain', practically any color of the rainbow can be seen, from a .glowing erimson to a glittering gold. This is due chiefly to sunlight effects. If anyone doubts this they should go to the Bristol channel, where Turner, the great painter, produced some of the most wonderful seascapes the world kaj seen.—Tit-Bits. Wky Anger Perils He*Itk Both anger and grief have a mental basis, and indulgence in both produce marked Ill-effects OH the body, says a writer In the London Times. Sir Jamos Paget and Doctor Murchlson, for example, considered that protracted grief and anxiety were the cause of cancer in certain organs of the body. Further Investigations Into this sub- ject tend to prove the truth of their assumptions. Anger, which, like grief, is a mental quality, is-known to proTOke lndlge*-\ tlon, headaches and neuralgia. Seek- ing relief in tears, therefore, when the feeling of anger Is sought to be over- come, would be tantamount to Jump- ing from the frying pan Into the Are. Both anger and grief, therefore, ought to be shunted by all right-thinking people, and this modern applied psy- chology teaches one how to do i t Why the Fingers Wrinkle Over our bodies Is an outer covering which acts as a sprt of skln-flttlng pro- tection to the true skin underneath.

The outer covering, then. Isn't at such times \skin-fitting.\ bm rather tends to hang like a glove slightly overlurge for the band. In other words. It wrinkles till such time as the true skin underneath has caught up with It and. as !( were, filled the glove out. Aunt Ada's Axioms: Many hands make light work and many lights help hand work.

COS! miiS INSURANCE FIGHT GIVEN AWARD OP $106,000 FOR LOSS OP CHEESE PLANT AT CAPE VINCENT. —o— The Watertown Daily Times of last Thursday had the following, which wijl be of interest to Eagle readers: Justice Irving R. Devendorf, of Herkimer, to-day handed down his decision in the litigation instituted by E. W. Coon, millionaire cheese dealer of Cape Vincent and Phila- delphia, Pa., against the National Fire Insurance company, of Hartford, and nine other fire insurance com- panies. The decision is- strongly in favor of Mr. Coon and allows 'him $86,033.64 for the loss sustained by him when his big cheese storage plant at Cape Vincent was destroyed by fire April 23, 1921. With interest dating back over three years the award will exceed $106,000. This award is $28,363.45 more than the board of appraisers allowed him, their award having been $57,670.45, which he brought action to have set aside and a new and equitable award established in its place. The decision is a great victory for Attorneys Delos M. Cosgrove, of the firm of Cobb, Cosgrove & Kimball, Attorney Harold L. Hooker and At- torney Wilbur A. Porter, who repre- sented Mr. Coon. It is remarkable for its brevity and conciseness, in view of the enormous mass of evi- dence presented and the length of time in which it took to try the case. While the case tried out was that against the National Fire Insurance company, of Hartford, which carried two standard five-year policies, one for $25*000 and the other for $10,000 on the Coon plant, the decision also determines the nine other . similiar actions brought by Mr. Coon against as many other fire insurance com- panies. This case, which was started as wore the other nine, in February, 1923, was a most unusual one in many respects. Scattered through the many months of trial were so many deaths of persons intimately connected with it as to almost found a superstition that it was hoodooed. First came the death of Fred B, Millard, one of the appraisers, when the trial was barely started. Later during the midst of the case, Warren tt. Evaul, the most important witness tor the plaintiff, disappeared and his body was found in the river at Van Duzee street bridge the next day. Then as the evidence was just com- pleted Judge Edgar C. Emerson, the official referee died, making it neces- sary to submit the case to someone else. Mr. Coon's wife died a short time after that and since then two or three of the insurance representa- tives have died. Involved in the trial were six vol- umes of typed stenographic minutes containing an aggregate of 2,436 pages. There were lOO exhibits, many of which consisted of page upon page of statistics. The brief of the plaintiff's side, prepared by At- torney Hooker, a most exhaustive document, contained 200 pages and that of Attorney Sullivan for the de- fendant contained 165 pages. There were 356 line items in the award. The case contained 103 disputed items 92 of which were made by Mr. Mil- lard, representative of the insurance company and supported by H. I. Starkwater, umpire, who failed to support but eleven of those of A. T. Foster, the appraiser for Mr. Coon. Mr. Coon had carried $150,000 in- surance on his storehouse, but some time prior to the fire-had reduced the amount to $125,000, which was spread among the ten insurance companies sued by him, the National taking $35,- 000 of it, The policies contained the provision that in the event of loss by fire, tbe insured and the carrier could not agree upon the amount of loss sus tained, a board of disinterested ap- praisers should be selected, the in- sured to chose and the insurance companies to select another, the two to appoint the third. Mr. Coon, after examining the ruins carefully after the fire, filed a claim of slightly over $115,000 against the insurance companies, who refused to agree upon it. On May 12, 1921, a short time after the fire, Mr. Coon went to Syracuse to the headquarters of the General Adjust- ment Bureau, which represented the insurance companies and Messrs Fitz- patrick and Cothers of the bureau suggested arbitration. They chose Mr. Millard, whom they represented as a contractor and builder, who was disinterested. Mr. Coon selected A. T. Foster, of the contracting and constructing firm of Hodge & Foster of this city. Trie two agreed upon H. I. Starkwater, a construction man, of Carthage, for the umpire, his name having been suggested by Mr. Millard. When the appraisal got under way it developed that Millard bent every effort to make the award as low as possible and in favor of the insurance companies. Mr. Foster fought to keep the awards at a reasonable figure, but was overruled by the um- pire. When the award of $57,670.19 was made, Mr, Foster put in a minority award. During the appraisal it was learn- ed by Mr. Coon that Millard instead of being a disinterested party, was a professional appraiser for fire in- surance companies and had made that his business for several years. His contention in regard to Mil- lard is sustained by Justice Deven- dorf in his opinion, which states that luring a period of ten years prior to the fire in 1921 Millard had made 556 appraisals for insurance com- panies, for which he had received $23,027.20 and that his fee in the Coon case alone -was $2,608.43. Justice Devendorf finds that while Millard had at one time been a contractor Pure tailored Japan Leghorn Brand-Best on the Market 50c Pound-Try it. SOc Poland.

BREAD-FresSi Every Day Groceries Cigars Tobacco Candy Magazines MBJfcaariMBMgBHBBMS'SS^^ and builder, he had not followed that occupation for many years prior to the ten year period preceding 1921. \Undoubtedly he rendered satis- factory returns for-his compensation. Otherwise he would not have been continually designated by the insur- ance companies,\ Justice Devendorf hplds. He charges that he was not a dis- interested party as the insurance policies demanded and that he never should have been appointed. Those companies he says, were \deceptive- ly silent\ about his relations with them and he adds that Millard was undoubtedly a professional appraiser for the insurance companies. Stark- water, he finds was not so important a factor in making the award, except as he seconded Millard on most points. Because of this situation Justice Devendorf holds that the appointment of Millard and the award should be set aside and a new award made. That, he did, making an award of $86,033.64. In view of the fact that the National carried $35,000 of the $125,000 insurance, he determines that it should pay 35-125ths of the $35,000, which would be $9,800. On top of that,there will be $5,983 insur- ance and the costs, which will make the total judgement more than $15,- 000. It is likely that an appeal will be taken by the insurance companies to the appellate division, fourth depart- ment, through their attorneys, Ains- worth, Sullivan, Wheat & Archibald and Nelson R. Pirnie, of Albany. Dutchess Coanf APPLES To my Friends and Patrons: I wish to announce that I will be at Cape Vincent on THURSDAY, FRI- DAY and SATURDAY of this week; will also be open evenings from 7 to 9 for the. benefit of those unable to come during the day. I want you all to have a, chance to get your winter's supply of those apples. Nice, spray- ed, hand-picked fruit is scarce, and will be very high in price as soon as the wind-falls and cheap apples are gone. I have as good as money can buy, and packed much better than you can get on the market, as I packed them to suit my trade. I have some apples as low as $4.00 per barrel, that are good bargains for family use. They have all been sprayed several times, are hand-picked, and packed in barrels to avoid bruising, so you are getting the best possible for your money. These apples are grown on slaty soil that gives them a flavor impossible to bet in other sections. Come in and try them and see for yourself. Our seasons are from three to four weeks longer, which gives the fruit plenty of time to mature. I x:an give you a variety of apples that will keep you supplied nearly all the year. I have 12 different varieties. Why not have apples next spring as well as now? Boiled apples and grid- dle cakes beat potatoes and are healthier and cheaper. I have not got as many apples as last year, but they are the best I ever had. Come in and test them, even if you do not buy. You are welcome. You may have a liberal amount of home-grown apples on hand, but un- less they have been sprayed, I am afraid you will be short of apples be- fore spring; at least that has been my experience. Why not get an extra barrel to keep after they are all gone? Come in and let us talk it over. I will be at Three Mile Bay next Monday and Tuesday, I am anxious to have you supplied before I go and will appreciate it if you will come in as soon as you can. Will deliver ; any where in town, one or more barrels.' I have a large num- ber of customers in the town of Cape Vincent, which is evidence of confi- dence. I assure you I appreciate it. It has been a pleasure to me to meet you all each year and hear you say that you were satisfied. GEO. G. BATES World Illuminated by Spread of the Bible A man from Corea arrived recently In London with his two sons. He could not speak a word of English, but he showed an addres* Insrde a little Bible and was guided to the Bible house, In Queen Victoria street. Then he poured out a heap of money on a table and pointed to his two sons. When an in- terpreter was found, writes a London correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor, the man related how he knew of nothing else In England but the place which had sent fiis Bible to blm In Corea, and be had come there with his sons because he wanted them to be educated as Christians. In the windows of the Bible bouse are Bibles which show the link with little peoples and great peoples all over the world.
