( Limvoodand Willow Make Best Artificial Limbs By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D. I HAVE just been talking to a 'try remarkable man, and one of th» great master workmen In his field in the world. He Is engaged In the business of Dr. Clendenlng - making artificial . limb 8. Though j this might seem j » rather grisly. | business to most j people, the hu- j man contacts that he has made, and the happiness that he has been able to disseminate, has rendered it a lit* work of en thusiasm, pleas in'* and Interest to hmi, Like most peo ple who are in Queer businesses, he got into his Quite naturally.

He explains that their knowl edge of the trade in Europe was limited because they had compara tively few accidents before the war. In England, for instance, there were amputations e year compared Enited States. k (This, of course, liJ tludes all amputations, even finger deputations, but even so, the con* djist is appalling.)

The wedding music was fur nished by Miss. Dorothy Jones, the church organist, who played a num ber of selections prior to the cere mony. At the opening strain of Lohengrin's wedding march, sung by the vested choir, six special friends of the bride entered together and occupied seats reserved for them. They were Misses Closs Psace, Marie Parham, Ruth Bu chan. Betsy Cooper and Mrs. James O Neil, all of Henderson and Miss Frances Powell, of Richmond. Va. The ushers were Thomas Pittman Davis, brother of the toride, and Tames O’Neil, both of Henderson; Wil liam Harris, of Chapel Hill. Franklin Gray, of Blairstown, N. J.; Burke Mc- Connell, of Fayetteville; and Harry Myers, of Raleigh. The bride’s only attendant was her maid of honor. Miss Eleanor Bryan Badger, sister of the groom. She wore a summer gown of yellow organza with matching hat and slippers, and carried a large arm bouquet of mixed warden flowers. The bride entered with her father, Andrew J. Davis, who gave her in marriage. Her costume was a softly sweeping white crepe, with loose fit ting finger tip length coat of sapphire color summer velvet. Her hat, an off-the-face model, was of white crepe with crown of matching blue velvet. She carried an arm bouquet of white mapdragons and blue delphinium. The bridegroom had as his best man his brother, Alexander Stronach Badger. Following the ceremony at the church, Mr. and Mrs. Davis entertain ed the bridal party, the out-of-town guests and a few intimate friends a* an informal reception at their home on Charles street.

In an artificial leg for an amputa tion above the knee, straps are tied to suspenders, and the patient moves the knee and foot quite naturally with the ordinary movement of the body in walking. In most instances it is unnecessary to hunch the shoul ders up. although some patients never learn this. Patients vary in their ability to learn to use an arti ficial limb. Sometimes they can learn to walk on one without a cane within a few days; sometimes they never around and realize the true state of affairs. When the war broke put he was fully acquire the knack. Much of the limb qiaker’s success depends on the surgeon's knowledge of how to perform an amputation in relation to an artificial limb. Some times the surgeon tries to save too much of the leg, so that the stump interferes with t,he pulleys above the artificial knee.

Sales Tax Fight Pushed To Finish (Continued from Page one.) day. Dowell and John Paul Leonard are regarded as being the leaders of the anti-sales tax forces in the State. “More and more of the thinking people of the State, including a large number of the merchants, have con cluded thta the sales tax is not as bad as those who oppose it have been picturing it and we believe that most of the candidates nominated today will be unpledged and left free to decide as they see fit in the next General Assembly,” George P. Geoghegan, Jr., chairman of the legislative commit tee of the North Carolina Associa tion of Real Estate Boards, which has been openly advocating the re tention of the sales tax as a tempor ary meergency measure, said today. The Eastern Carolina Chamber of Commerce has also been actively de fending the sales tax. A statement issued by Geoghegan in behalf of the North Carolina Asso ciation of Real Estate Boards and evidently in reply to the telegram sent out this week by Dowell to some 22 newspapers in the State, asking their attitude toward increasing the sales tax or making it permanent, said that “there have been certain efforts to misrepresent the attitude of the North Carolina Association of Real Estate Boards on the sales tax” and replied to Dowell’s questionaire as fol lows: : 1*..! - ' j “Any insinuation on the part of any person, group or organization to the effect that the N.
