BY HANNAH MITCHELL It would be easy enough to make a melodramatic start and give her some such extravagant title as "The Angel of the Hills" or "The Mother of the Mines" or "The Florence Nightingale of Blair Mountain." But if you did and Molly Dingess Drake found it out she might laugh and she might make some sharp remark, but most certainly she would not be pleased. How she escaped the "war correspondents" who were rushed to the front to cover West Virginia's recent mine war is more than I can say, for the story is still told of how Molly, like "Sheridan twenty miles away," when the armed miners were marching on Logan, made all haste not toward safety, as she might very wisely have done, but back to where the bullets were flying. Her narrowest escape from the feature pages of newspapers was several years ago—two, in fact—when, a woman of some two score years, she was graduated from high school with her sixteen-year-old daughter. That graduation and the attendant high school diploma were in no sense honorary affairs given out of respect for Molly Dingess Drake. They had been earned by this very determined, ambitious woman of the hills after four years of enrolled along with her daughter and for which she had attended classes faithfully with classmates half her age. On pay day Mrs. Drake is a welfare worker for one of the coal companies operating in the Logan field. Having finished her high school course, she did not go on to college with her daughter. And, as she puts it, one of the coal producers "knew she wouldn't sit at home and knit and crochet." So he offered her the job of visiting nurse among the employees of his company. In this job Molle mothers a large family. It is composed of men and women much older than she and of the children of these older children. True to the mother-type anywhere, she makes their individual troubles, their health, their happiness, a very personal matter. There was the young Spaniard who lay in the hospital after a severe accident. No friends or relatives rallied to his bedside, and the doctors and nurses could not understand him when he moaned out a word or two in his native tongue. Molle Drake scoured the hills for an interpreter and found one. She also dug up a cousin of the unfortunate boy. Moreover she made the lives of nurses and doctors miserable until the lad was out of danger sometimes calling at the hospital. was getting on. eighn born lad one It was not that Drake, ready to work with other brave county when army marching upon the interested me may have guessed alright War is too recent lean women are n WHILE PLAYING HOCKEY WITH A RUBBER BALL SOME OF THE STAR PLAYERS DISCOVERED THAT THEY COULD MAKE CAROMS OFF THE STRANGER WITHOUT ONCE HITTING HIS WATCH POCKET—HE FOUND IT MOST ANNOYING.

The Motor Transit Company has announced that in the future the motor stage "limited" recently introduced for through service via the inland route to San Francisco, would be known as the "Coyote." The "Coyote" schedule provides for an actual running time of only sixteen hours and thirty-five minutes, an additional hour being consumed in stops for meals. The stages leave the Union Stage Depot at Los Angeles every morning at 6:30 o'clock and arrive in San Francisco five minutes after midnight. BUICK PRICES DROP GOODRUM ANNOUNCES Buick prices have dropped again. This is the announcement made this morning by William Goodrum, Buick distributor for northern Orange County. The new prices will be effective January 1 and will apply on all models. Goodrum says that if there is any car that has been giving more for the money than the Buick he has not heard of it and hails this latest price drop as the beginning of an epoch in exceptional value giving. He says that the Buick at the new price should provide the opportunity of selecting any model, four or six, that will mean one of the best investments possible in motor cars.

A German chemist has made an exhaustive study of this question and concludes that no one person can be considered to be the inventor of the friction match. MRS. MOLLIE DINGESS DRAKE was getting on. Was not this foreign born had one of her children? It was not the Mollie Dingess Drake, ready to face danger along with other brave women of Logan county when armed miners were marching upon their homes; that interested me most, as you may have guessed already. The World War is too recent proof that American women are not afraid to risk their lives for a cause. It is Mollie when peace broods over her native hills that make her a woman among women. Mrs. Drake is a mountain woman herself. She knows the desires, the needs and the hopes of the women and children who live in her hills; in a double sense she is working among her own people. No serious-minded killjoy is Mrs. Drake, but a large motherly woman. It is a common statement among traveling salesmen that they live in a Pullman; Mollie Drake might say she lives in a day coach. Her headquarters are in Logan, and much of her time is spent riding to and from the little mining towns along the branch lines out of Logan. Her trips are taken to visit the homes of miners, and no place is too remote for her to visit. Her energy in tramping about and the speed with which she walks over the hills is enough to make a younger woman gasp for breath and all but beg for quarter. That from one who knows. We started out of Logan one morning on the 10 o'clock train. Before the train started we were part of the social gathering which greets the all-too-few passenger trains that come into Logan. Mollie Dingess knew everybody. Arrived at the mining center, our first visit was to the schoolhouse, a substantial two-story building. In front of which were all the latest playground devices for amusing the modern child. The teachers were young and efficient in their schoolroom manners. In Logan county the schools have the advantage of extra good teachers because after the school board has voted what it can afford for salaries the coal com- It was Drake's "You have education left the old Mrs. Drake road."

Tuesday, December 27, 1921 Family Asphyxiated As Father Decorates Tree DETROIT, Dec. 27.—An entire family was asphyxiated by fumes from a gas heater, police discovered yesterday when they forced entrance into the home at-the-request of neighbors. The dead are Gaetano Maim onde, 48, his wife, Josephine, 38, and their children, Philip, 14, Lucy, 10, and John, 3. The body of Maimonde lay beneath a partly decorated Christmas tree. The others were in beds, apparently having been asphyxiated while they slept. SUDS AND DUDS OF THE SANITARY LAUNDRY FULLERTON PHONE OR WRITE US! We'll surprise you with our speed... And our work...

"She is in college now," continued Mrs. Drake. "When her grades aren't as high as I think they ought to be she sends them to her father, but a man can't keep such things secret, and I always find out. She knows I haven't much patience with students who don't keep up their grades. "My daughter is going to be a physician. She didn't make up her mind until after she entered college. I was rather anxious to know what she would choose. After she started studying biology she was so interested that she decided to go on and study medicine." It occurred to me that Molle Drake was a feminist. I wondered if she had ever been a suffrage worker. "No," she answered. "I've always been a Democrat, though. My husband says I am what is called 'mean Democrat.'" She paused and then laughed. "I made one rule when I was married." It was then I learned of Mrs. Drake's unusual high school career. "You know I have a high school education," she remarked as we left the school and strode (at least Mrs. Drake strode) along the dirt road. "As a girl I went to school till I was thirteen. In the teens I took up nursing and later was married. But I always wanted more education. Sometimes it is the persons who are denied education appreciate it most. Well, when my daughter was ready for high school I decided that I would get my high school education too—not by following her studies at home (I knew that wouldn't do), but by enrolling in high school with her. "Some of my friends thought it was an absurd idea. They said I could enroll in colleges for special courses or take correspondence courses. But the idea of my going to school right along with my daughter and the other young people seemed queer to them. I suppose it was unusual. But what I wanted was a regular education. So I enrolled and went through the four years of high school and was graduated in the same class with my daughter." "And how did your daughter feel about it?" "Oh, she had her young friends As we climbed into the train I was tired, but Mrs. Drake seemed as energetic as when the day began. "I like the work," she said, "but I want to study more. Last summer I took a course in New York, and I'd like to go back there for a season at the Henry Street Settlement. I want to study languages, too. There are so many things I want to do." Some day I have not a doubt she will do these things she wants to do. In the meantime I think of her
