Four cornstalks, each 19 feet talL
were sent to the Chamber of Com

Cal., rancher. Morden said the four
tall stalks were specimens seized at

silage and 1,285 kernels were count

Grand Estate

BORDEXTOWN, N. J. (UP)
Point Breeze, the country estate that
was home to Joseph Bonaparte. Comte
de Survilljrs and former king of
Naples anc&f Spain, during 20 years
of his exile, has been sold under the
auctioneer's hammer.
Little remains on the delapidated
estate to identify it as the American
home f Napoleon's brother. A beau
tiful artificial lake once dotted with
swans 'and pleasure craft is a dry,
weed-filled depression, remnants of
the lake house crumbling at one edge.
The lake house was built by Joseph
for his daughter, the Princess Zen
aide, and nearby is the entrance to a
subterranean passage which he built
to protect her from bad weather on

Destroyed by Fire in 1820
Joseph's first home was destroyed
by fire in 1S20. but there remains no
trace today of the manor house he
built to replace it. The only house at
Point Breeze now is a mansion built
SO years ago and remodeled in 1912
by Harris Hammond, son of the late
mining engineer, John Hays Ham

estate for $10,000 shortly after his
flight to Philadelphia with his secre-
tary and nine servants following his
brother's crushing defeat at Water
loo. Used as Summer Home
Hammond had the grounds land
scaped extensively when he bought
the remaining 212 acres of the estate

pools and used it as a summer home

PARIS (UP) Protestant shrines
in France and a history of protest
antism in the country are included in
a new booklet issued in English under
the auspices of M. Roland Marcel,
high commissioner for tourist travel

Protestants.
A reproduction of the statute of
Gaspard de Colig-ny, the Iluirenot ad
miral of France who met his death on
St. Bartholomew's day, is the cover
design. Historical notes trace Protes
tantism in France through its estab
lishment, the period of the religious
wars, the Edict of Nantes in force,
the "wilderness" period when thous
ansds of Ilugenots fled to the wilder
ness rather than forswear their faith,
and the period of increasing1 liberty,
to the present.
Shrines include Etaples on the
Channel coast where Lefevre, the in
itiator of the French Reformation,
was born; Nerac, where he died in
1 the chateau of the Queen of Navarre;
Strasbourg, where the first French
Reformed Church was built in 1538;
Nantes where Henri IV granted the
Hugenots freedom of wort-hip in 1598,

interest to Protestants.

M-I-I-I-M"M-H"i !"Z"!-I-
Plattsmouth has fceen unusually
fortunate this year in the attendance
at school as it has been much better
.ban in previous years. This has no
doubt been due somewhat to the un
usually good health conditions in the
surrounding community and the
weather being favorable for school
attendance.
A perfect attendance record at
school is most desirable and parents
are urged to have their children at
tend school regularly. The experience
of the teachers has proven that stu
dents who are regular in attendance
do much better work than those who
are irregular. It is of vital import
ance to the welfare of the child to be
ia f.chool every day.
The following pupils have been
neither absent nor tardy during the

Medical Director for Colfax School
for Tuberculosis Says Death
Rate Still Sar Too High.
OAKLAND, ttil. (UP) The death
rate in tuberculosis has been reduced
. .,t fho annual
tuberculosis patients, said here.
Dr. Peers spoke before the Pacific
coast section of the American Student
Health Association in convention at
Mills College.
This mortality rate is greater
than it should be, with our present
knowledge of methods of control,"
he said. "We should feel this figure
a disgrace rather than cause for
elation."
Dr. Peers said the reduction of 75
' per cent was very gratifying to med-
jcai men.
Slow to Learn. Facts
Three things must be known to
control any disease, Dr. Peers said.
They are: the cause, manner in
which it is spread, and who has the
disease.
"For a number of decades follow
ing the discovery of the tubercle
l'acillus there was no scientific method
to determine exactly who had the
disease," he said.
"It i3 not the advanced case which
is the dangerous source of infection,"
he continued. "Such a person is re
cognized and placed under control."
Dr. Peers pointed out that persons
responsible for the spread of the dis-
who is not directly infected.
X-Ray Detects All Types
"Now," he said, "the X-Ray can
' discover all types and stages of tuber-
culosis, enabling physicians and pub
lic health officers in determining
spreaders of the disease."
Because of failure of medical men
to recognize the three classes of car
riers of the disease before invention
of the X-Ray, he said, control of the
disease was delayed so long.
Dr. Teers praised efforts of the
various tuberculosis associations in
educating the public regarding the
disease and providing hospital beds
for those with open tuberculosis.
The reduction in mortality was due
directly and indirectly to efforts of
these organizations, he said.
T. C. U. TO PLAY MARQUETTE
AND TEMPLE IN 1938
FORT WORTH, Tex. (UP) The
Horned Frogs of Texas Christian Uni
versity will play a 10-game schedule
next year that includes two iner
sectional foes, Marquette and Temple.
The Christians will tangle with
the Golden Avajanche in Milwaukee,
Oct. 22. They are scheduled to tackle
Pop Warner's team Oct. 1. It will be
the first meeting of the Frogs with
the Temple Owls, and the second
with Marquatte, T. C. U. having
beaten the Golden Avalanche in the
1937 New Year's Cotton Bowl game
in Dallas.
' The game with Temple should
prove interesting, as T. C. U. employs
the Warner system of single and
double, wing backs. The Frogs will
play Temple iu Philadelphia.
In addition to the two intersec
tional scraps, T. C. U. will play the
regular six conference games.
