The Canning Plant
The canning industry, like everything elec in the
Valley, is growing at a rapid rate—and as the industry
grows the opportunity for profit increases
Vafsy canned products arc becoming known for
their high quality m new markets each year and the
demand for Valiev canned vegetables and grapefruit
is expanding rapidly. Ark operators of plants now in
existence.
More than 300 cars of canned goods left the Valiev
last fccasn* This was an increase of approximately
10 per cent over the previous season. The coming
season will see a still greater increase- in the -output,
it is believed.
New and lower freight rater to the centers where
Valley canned goods are consumed should prove an
impetus to the industry.
Brownsville now has an opportunity to secure a
plant and to secure a manager w'ho comes highly rec
ommended C. V Oswalt has the advantage of hav
ing handled Valley products for several years. Man
ufacturers of canning and processing machinery and
manufacturers of cans sav he knows his business
Brownsville has had other opportunities to secure
packing plants and has failed to grasp the oppor
tunity. There should be a different result in the
present effort.
In addition to assuring profit to the investors a
canning plant will increase the general prosperity rd
the city There will be an additional pay roll: the.
farmer- will be able to dispose of products which now
•re going to waste and thereby will increase his in
come from each crop.
The men who art organizing the $30,800 to build
the plant have the confidence of the citizenship. It
should be a comparatively easy task to secure the
necessary subscriptions.
Tomatoes, green beans turnip greens and epinach
are the principal vegetables canned at present. Two
crops can be grown each year of all tbeee products.
Kraut will be canned in increasing quantities and
cabbage also is liarvested twice each year.
There is a big and growing demand for Valiev
grapefruit. The canned product is meeting with in
creasing favor Many carloads of fruit V being wasted
yearly. Canned, this would add mater ally to the
Valiev agricultural income
Borne day water transportation will be available
from the Valiev. Then the day of success for can
neries really will arrive And theme who ahead? are
In business and who have establsheri an outlet win be
the first to profit.
Now is the time to build a canning plant tn

CHAPTER 5S i
' But how can you. Atm**’’” Chat - *
■ ty asked “I have no reference! Mr.;
Van Nuys wouldn't Rive me one.1
: now!"
Til give you a reference!” smiled '
Agnes. "Mr Ellerby is & very in
fluential man What he says, roe . i
And what I say goes with him, if
you know what I mean!"
• Good heavens! Are you going'
to marr- the presldem of the Midas
bank?” gasped Chatty.
Agnes blushed. "Yes’” she ad-1
mitted “I'm a verv lucky girl, in 1
more ways than one.”
"I thought—I thought of apply- *
ins for work under only part of my 1
name—Charlotte Cor day. Tire
Chatterton is so notorious now.” j
She blushed
‘No!*’ decided Agnes "You must
be honest. Chatty. A false name, i
even if it Is your own. is deceptive
Then your employer will find it out !
—and blooie! You leave it to me!" j
Agnes nodded her well-poised
head confidently.
* • •
The wizardv of love worked Its
miracle Mr. Ellerby, it appeared
had only to wave his magician's |
wand and Jobs apoeared b- magic i
A P. B X operator was needed at
Tnlson anti Partridge's, another'
bond house Following instructions
Chatty applied to Mr Tolson in
person
Mr Tnlsor was little and fat and
round, and looked like a stout
cherub But he had keen eyes and
j a firm mouth. Chattv liked him.
at sight.
“Oh. yes Miss Chatterton Know
all about you Ellerby savs you
had a Job with Van Nuys. mads a
mess of vnurself. got into trouble
straightened up anti wanted to try j
again That all true?”
“Yes sir'' answered Chatty. "Tt*a !
all true. 1—I—it was in the news
papers. Must I teli—you ail about
it?”
"Certainly not! Tf it's bygone, let j
it stay bygone' Ellerby says you
are vouched for to him. and he
vouches for you to me. You going
to live up to the vouching?”
“Oh Mr Tolson I am-I will! Tf
you only knew how sorry and j
■ shamed I am—and how hard I’l
try!''
•Don’t want to know! Not your
father confessor! Twenty a week
| to start and five more a week m.
six months if yon make good ai
the job! Satisfied I"
* Just watch the way T11 work—
and oh. thank you. thank you'”
Twenty a week to start! Five
more a meek in six months And
not only no reference to give, but,
they knew about her—and took her
anyway!
The text came back to her— “to
I cleanse from all unrighteousness ”
She had confessed, and the 1m- !
j mediate result was not only a light- j
er heart, but a Job- miracle of mlr- !
acles. a good job!
The coals of fire burned on j
Chatty's head. The Job came from
Agnes, whom she had so wronged.
Chatty's head bowed down in hu
mility. Purely she could go little
lower In her own mind
But there were yet things to do
The first Paturdav mftemoon she
had off. she marcher! to Mr. Van
Nuy's office As once before, she j
knocked on his door, went in and
sat down.
I have something to tell you,
Mr. Van Nuvs,” she began I did I
| you a cruel wrong ! did not mean i
j it as such at the time. I was just |
; a heedless, heartless girl, jealous of
i a man, and hating your secretary—
; Agnes. It was I who made all that1
! trouble for you—I told Mr*. Van
Nuys. by sending her the pages from j
Agnes’ diary.”
Mr. Van Nuys stared; his face
grew dark with anger.
"Let me finish, pleaw." went on
Chatty, bravely, but quailing at
what she saw in his face, “There
are no names you can call me as
hard as those I have called myself.
No reproach you i a fling in my
face will burn as thaw I have given
'iiyaalit I know now. what a com
mon. low. evil, dirty thing I did!
And I know—and this is somethin,;
you don’t know. Mr. Van Nuys. be
cause you never made a mtstak**,
ami felt remorse, and knew that you
couldn’t make it right—I know that
I cannot undo the harm I did All
I can do is to confess There —
that’s all.’’
Mr Van Nuys didn’t say anything
for a moment. But perhaps the
word., sunk in him. Few men can
look hack at a lifetime and agree
with the statement that they nev
er made a mistake or felt remorse’
Perhaps Mr. Van Nuys thought of
some of his earlv mistakes.
When he spoke, it was of some
thing quite different.
"Where are you employed?" -he
asked.
Chatty told him "Anri they
know all about me!" she said,
quietly. "I am not there on false
pretenses; only I am being given
another chance I got it through
Agnes—the girl I wronger! I have
told her. too."
Mr Van Nuys looked puzrled
‘Well. I don’t know what els# there
Is to say," he began. ‘Why did you
come here to tell me this?”
• Just trying to get s'quare with
mvself. sir!" she answered "I
musn’t make any protestations to
you of how different I am. or hot.
well I’ve learned my lesson You
wouldn't believe me. and I wouldn’t
blame you. But I can’t go ahead
and try to live right and be decent
—with a secret of wrong doing in
my mind So I have told you. Ant!
- with your permission, sir—1 am
going from here to Mrs. Van Nuys'
—and tell her the truth, too!”
Mr Van Nuys started Then he
smiled a little. ‘ That may be a very
wise thing to do'” he answered.
"But—tell me. Why did you come
to me first?"
‘Because, sir. I thought it. was
your right to say whether I should
bring this old sore up with Mrs.
Van Nuys. After all, all I can do
is set mvself straight in mv own
mind—humble myself. But if that
does more harm than good, then T
have no right to do it. So I mme
to you first."
‘Well, upon my word! And you
are the girl who never had a
thought except some one elne's bus
iness, talk, scandal drink, wild par
ties’ Something has changed vou
mightily!"
"Yes, sir," Agreed Chatty “I
haw had my lesson."
Mr Van Nuys rose. T think T
better not advise you either to or
not to go to Mrs. Van Nuys " he
stated. ' It is wholly your business
—and her business l neither for
bid nor encourage I wish you good
luck. Good afternoon.
So that was that. Curiously, not
as hard as sh<* had expected Not
nearly so hard as telling Agnes.
Was she getting innured to mak
ing confessions, or was it bemuse
she had found out that good mnv*
of confessions, not pain and evil?
Chatty didn't know She did
know that she hadn’t the strength
to go to Mrs Van Nuys that after
noon; she would go some othsr j
day. He had neither encouraged1
nor forbidden. Probably that i
meant he hoped she would go. Weil, i
she would try to sell Mrs. Van Nuyi
the idea that her husband was en
tirely sinned against, not at all sin
ning. Of course there was the visit
to the Lotlypop with the girl in
red and gold slippers—“Hts daugh
ter!” he had said. Chatty smiled.
But It was not for her to Judge.1
What she had to do was to get rid
of the tenable load on her heart.
Besides. Billie would be back on
Sunday—tomorrow' She wanted to
face Billie with a clean slate—a
new start—a job and no wrong do
ing unsighted. Yes. she would go
to Mrs, Van Buys, very soon—
With her first week’s pay on her
Chatty went into a store.
**I want a pair of soft, easy sup
pers,” she said. ‘"They must be one!
si* larger than my feet. They are
for my mother.
“I want two ties—not more than
two dollars each, please. They must
be very ’collegiate indeed' They
are for my brother! He’s Just six
teen —”
In a third store. “I want the pret
tiest steak set one can buy with!
ten dollars'” she demanded. TVs
for a wedding present—and I’ll take
It with me!”
A week’s pay- and almost a!!
gone! Bui in place of the money
was happiness; the Jov of doing
something for those who loved her.
Chatty went home with a lighter
heart, than she had carried for
weeks and weeks.
Even the aching pain that was
for David did not trouble quite so
much. Somehow, when she thought
, of him now. h!s fare always wore
a little half rmile—as it had tn her
j dream of him tn a pulpit.
"Never for me in life, of course!”
Chatty sighed. ‘But—well, it’s
good to know that if he knew, he
might not hate me quite so much—
oh. Dave. Dare, if you only knew
how I love you—leva you—*'
Chatty shook her head to keep
the tears back The street, ts no
* place to cry for the lover m*ho is
fonever lost!

This is written on a railroad train
between Newark and Washington.
We made a late start from the farm
and for the last ten minutes it was
“nip and tuck" whether wc could
arrive in time to catch the train.
It seemed very necessary to make
this particular connection because
of duties in Washington. I confess
to having had a feeling of tenseness i
and undue anxiety over the matter
Usually a very calm person In the
face of emergency, I found my heart
beats increased eight or ten above
normal.
Is it a good thing to have periods
of emotional stress?
While we cannot avoid many such
experiences in life, most of them are
not worth while. In fact they are
unwise and, under certain condi
tions, unsafe as well.
On the. way down this morning
I read of the death of a man 1 used
to know. He was at a ball game
Saturday, got excited, sat hi the aun
and perhaps had indigestion. The
combination was too much for a
weak heart. He died the next day
Emotion appears to have a moie
powerful effect upon the system
than does rather violent exercise.
What it does to us is not quite clear.
Among other thing, it stimulates
certain of the “ductless glands to
throw into blood stream substances
which excite the heart to more
rapid action.
This may cause the muscle* of the
heart vessels to contract Jlipid
heart and constricted vessels result
in increased blood pressure.
This is a matter of no particular
consequence, provided the blood
vessel walls are firm and elastic.
But if these walls are hardened on
weak from degenerative conditions,
"here may be a break Then, certain
ly there is sure to be more or less
trouble.
Emotion, anger particularly, is
credited ultm creating In the body
certain substances, sometimes called
“toxins.” which are poisonous in
their action- Even though this the
ory may be somewhat visionary,
any one of us can testify to the ill
effects of anger. Have you not felt
sick for hours after an outburst of
anger?
It does not pay to give way to
violent emotion. I wouldn't give
much for a man or woman who is
absolutely without, emotion. Such
person are too cold to suit me. But
after middle life violent expression
oi any emotion is physically dan
gerous.
Nature has provided that as we
grow rider we become more re
strained. We are more temperate
In our emotional expressions. That
is a wise provision.
Oood manners and good health
demand that we indulge in no un
seemly outbursts. Even though we
ray nothing, even though we do not
swear at the chauffeur, It does not
pay to get mart.
