PAGE TO URGE STATE POLICE Highway Chief to Go Before Next Legislatuijo IVIore Rigid Bnforcement of the Laws Needed to Cut Down Accidents, He Says f}<<ï J Raleigh, Jan. 28.—Total now ■««ujshr.uction in North Carolina during the year 1935 was estimat- ed today by the department of conservation and development at 4(126,000,000. The estimate was made oil a basis of reports receiv ed; from 247 cities and towns in North Carolina. : Figures relative to the amount and character of the construction in this state during the year com piled by, the department, were made public here tonight. While the department has been unable to sefcure anything like complete sta tistics to cover all building and coBts and materials in all parts of the' state, it made request of 425 cities, towns, and other sources of Information, from which it re ceived a total of 247 reports, in cluding reports from the five citi- ¡ ' cs of Charlotte, Raleigh, WJ^iStonr The department believes that ^ Y tho reporta from these 247 cities Í /; ¿ and towns give a fair conception ' of tho amount of building activity and tho lines along which it was directed. The answers also give basis of comparison with the year 1924. From the 247 reports of con- : struction received by the' depart ment, there is shown' a total of $59,666,096 spent on construction, including residences, business jijjhldingBf and factoi’ies. To this total, says the depart- mertt, must bo added state expen- ditures during the year for insti tutions and other strictly state purposes of $4,910,224, so that the total cost of the construction re ported upon for the year was $64,- CGO,020. ; / But to this total must likewise : be added the several millions of ■ dollars spent; on public school buildings, through the agency of . thel state loan fund, as supple mented by the counties. These -ilgures, owing to lack of reports , from a few counties, have not yet been compiled by the department «f^publio.instruction. It is understood, it was stated !>•»-/ tonight at the department, when ' the flgures given are partial ia :• character, that they do not em- *,, , brace construction in tho rural distncts, or in numerous towns —«.from which no reports were re- . ceived m answers to the inquiries sent out by the department. Nor do they include construction costs . in oonnection with the highways program, such as bridges, or co.'its , • . of dams, reservoirs, power plants, and resorj; developments outside «f cities and towns. Tho partial character of the fig ures, said Major Wade H. Phillips, . director of the department, indi cate a total of new construction lor the year of certainly ?125,. PPO.OOO, nnd perhaps a groat deal more. in asking for the reports, Major Phillips attempted to secure a classification to show the charact- 01 of construction, as well na its , cost. Although the classifications •wore not embodied in a number of the reports, enough was ascertain ed, ho believes, to give'ground for some “interesting deducations as to the trend of building in the atate.” For instance, of a total of 7,527 ■residences reported constructed at a, cost of ?22,005,217, tiiere were classified. 0,311 as built of wood, . 689 of bricl[;_ and only 72 of stone. Of 1,400 business buildings re ported, 714 Were built of brick, 54,') of W’ood, 32 of stone, and 79 , of steel and concrete, The total costs of business buildings report ed upon was $21,233,472. Of 128 factories reported, 68 were of brick, 40 of wood, and 11 ol concrete. Reported construc- iion costs of factories within citi es and towns were $6,269,936.

Speaking before the Kiwanis club, Chairman Page declared the state laws iiro all right, but that they need enforcement. The constabulary he will recom- mend before the legislature would bo modeled after the system now used in Connecticut. “Last year,” said Mr. Page, "wo slaughtered an average of one person every day on the state highways.

Major Phillips, in commenting on tho figures, called especial at tention 'to the large number of residencea, and to the overwhelm ing choice of timber for thei.1’ con. struction. “Our people," said he, "need to be educated in permanent con struction in the building of their homes as well as of business and factory structures. This is'de. sirable for several important rea. sons: economy; lessening of fire risk, and consequent saving in in. surance rates; and the utilization of native clay products in the shape of brick and fire-proofing materials, and pf North 'Carolina atones. “Especially have the native stones been neglected. Of these, there is a widespread abundance, and a gread industry in new quarries waits largly upon better practice in the building of homes and other classes of construction.” One of the major problems of the state, said Major Phillips, is to protect tho forest from fires, and to encourage new growth of timber. “Our forests are being cut three times as fast as they are beipg regrown and, as a consequence, lumber .prices will inevitably ad vance beyond present high levels. The uses of wood are so many that it is uneconomic to build of wood whene^r another material can be safely substituted.

Tho purpose of tho transfer was to provide a site for a church, but, as the necessary amount for the structure would not be raised, tho enterprise failed. In the course of time Smith decided to sell the land and .undertook to give a deed for it. Just here Jim Smith “started more legal complications than I over before run into,” Marshall W, Boll, Murphy lawyer, told the Raleigh Nows and Observer, Tho purchaser of the land from Smith wont to Boll’s office in distress, because ho didn’t know how he could get o clear title to it, “since Jim Smith was a tenant in common with God, it would require the sign atures of both to make a valid deed.

(Mrs. W, N. Mutt in Progres sive Farmer.) Some wit has said that the path of civilization is strewn with tin cans. ' And it is true, isn’t itV If you were in the deepest jungles of Africa and came upon a tomato can, full or empty, you would know that some one who had been in touch with civilization had pa.s- sed that way. Thun suppose you or I went into n home—would it take,many minutes for either of us to decide whether the family had been in touch with thinigs progressive and had profited thereby? And would we not have more respect for both the husband and wife because of the modern machinery? Why has civilization carried tin cans into the jungles? To save strength 'for more worth while things than toting great weights of open, bulky food. Why then should a woman have every labor saver possible? Because it saves her strength for better things. We talk about the good old days of our grandmothers. Just talk of some of the survivors of that time and they will tell you that women were of two classe-s—those Avho harf plenty of servants to do the manual labor and those who worked to exhaustion, had no time to conserve strength and were old and full of rheumatism by -10. And did these latter women make good mothers? "N(f, they did not. Of course 1 speak-general ly, not of individuals. Environ ment or rather isolation, prevent ed moral contamination in the diseases. It cultivated habits of tenacity nnd industry but it did not promote a love of the soil. It meant hard and unremitting toil. Soon, as a result, began the city ward movement. Only when farm machinery came to the country was the stream to town stayecli And what is true of the farmer is more true of thei farm wife. Give her those home conveniences that almost every city homo has such as running water, a bath room, lights, a heating sy.stem and laundry conveniences and she will not be the one to say, “I want my girls to bo city teachers and mar ry city men.” She will say, "The farm home for farm girls with all its comforts, beauties and op portunities.’’ Give her even a husband who is doing his best to give her these strength and time savers and hope avIII keep her happy nnd strong. The man who puts running water in the barn yard and postpones the installa tion of it in the hpuse for a later date deserves a weary, discourag ed wife who has no time or heart for pleasantries. Ho uses it there twice a day, she two hund red. If running water can go to but ono place it should go in the house because results there are greater. What Leisure Means.—What freedom from the constant drive of hard work against exhaustion means to one woman I will let Mrs. Jacks tell you herself. “Oh Mrs. Hutt,’’ she says, “you know what a good husband I have; on ly, dear, he has never made things easy for me when he might have, did not see that when I was cross I was tired, when I had a head ache it was from exhaustion, and when I had a cold it was from preventable exposure,, when the children were sick it was usually from some lack of care. “Well, dear, you should come to visit me now. All is changed. Even the atmosphere of our home is different. “Our oldest boy and our oldest girl came back from college at the same time. Perhaps you did not kno.w it but my father sent them to study agriculture and home economics because Jim thought higher education useless. When they graduated my father gave each $500 to, use as he or she wished and they put it to- gethed and spent last , summer making over the house for me.

E. C. Blnir, extension agronomidl at Stato College, states that the beans will do better if planted in rows. Grown this way, the beans make more seed and more hay per aero thau when drilled or broad casted. At the Mountain Branch Sta tion near Swannanoa, tho hay from soybeans planted broadcast contained 50 percent or more of weeds, while there were no weeds in the hay where tho beans were cultivated in rows. Planting in rows also requires only half as much seed. “Land to be planted in soybeans should be well broken nnd worked jnto a good seed bed,’’ says Mr. Blair. “This careful preparation will pay better for soybeans than for most other crops, Iluu' the rows three feet apart and place the ^fertilizer in the rows, Tho best fertilizer for western North Carolina conditions in 300 to 400 pounds per aero of a 12-0-4 or the same amount of a 12-2-4 on poor ^olls. Mix the fertllizer in the soil to avoid burning tho seed. Forty pounds of Mammoth Yellow, 15 pounds of Virginia or 10 pounds of Laredo beans w'ill plant an acre in rows three feet apart. Plant the beans with a corn plant er, using a plate that drops a seed every six inches. For the small seeded varieties, uso a plate with small holes. Plant the beajis level and cover lightly. They will not come up if covered deeply, nor will they come through a hard crust.’’ Mr. Blair states that cultivation should begin when the plants are from five to six inches high. Throe cultivations are usually en ough but more should be_ given if necessary to Oontrol grass and weeds. By following these sug. gestions, Mr. Blair believes that the western grower can have suc cess with the soybean crop. DISCUSSES SHm.BY MILL MAKING THREAD. Lexington Dispatch. That is an interesting story that comcs from Shelby to the cffect that a cotton niill thero has changed its product from “the usual type of yarn to domestic cotton thread, a product that is necessary in every house hold In the land. It develops that all tho present supply of domestic thread i.s made in Connecticutt and is sold through New York agencies. This monopoly has not been chal- lenge<l and tho price has been slip ped up until ten cents is paid by the user for o spool of 200 yards. The Shelby mill finds it can niako a pro fit by putting up a spool of 400 yards to sell for ten cents. This Is an example of the gradual diversification' of tho products of Southern factories, especially those of North Carolina. In Lexington we have seen something of the trans- forination. Furniture factories hero where a few years ago only the. brazenly cheap sort of furniture was made are now making products that stack up well along with' tho best of ■their class that Grand Rapids or any other placo can afford. Cotton mills that plmost created a sensation when they began making cloth that could bo used in underwear now quietly go about their way making tho cloth for dress shirts, fancy goods for women’s dresses and even dra peries of exquisite loveliness for milady’s bnudoir. And they are be ing furnished ready for use almost within sou.nd ' of the whistle of tho mill where they are made. ; -econd day it is swollen, is red all around tho cut, and is very painful. Presently “matter”—pus appears in the wound. Instead of healing, the wound gets bigger and Avhen, after a long time, it finally does get well it leaves a big scar. The difference is that 'in the one case the cut fortunately got stuck to gether and sealed by nature ■ before any of these infecting germs got ih. In the other case the wound became infected. In the hospitals- where operations are done, everybody is exceedingly careful that the place on the body where they expect to operate is very carefully washed with soap and water and then with a solution that will kill all genns. All the gauze to be used for dressing and all the instru ments have been boiled or baked un til all germs aro killed. Then tho doctor puts on a gown that has been boiled or baked and rubber gloves that have been boiled. Nothing what ever is allowed to come In contact with the operation that ¡has not been surely sterilized. Sepsis means infection. Asepsis means without infection, nnd if this operation is done with asepsis, then the wound, regardless of its size, will heal up q.uickly without much pain, without any redness or swelling, and will leave butjlttle scar. This principle of asepsis is just as important in preventing infection o£ wounds of children at school as it is in preventing infections In the bos- pltal. 'ro bo sure, an infected finger would not be so serious a matter as an infection in tho abdomen after an operation for a bad appendix, but asepsis, is just as'Important- in. pre venting infection ono place as an other. Every cut or broken place in the skin should be cleansed with some aseptic and then kept clean. Now that gasoline is available anywhere and at any time, it is-well to know that gasoline is a splendid antiseptic as well as cleansing agent. In case of accidents where hands, arms, feet or legs have been crushed or cut and it is impossible to get a doctor for some time, it is well to wash tho in jury with gasoline then cover it vci’y loosely with a haridkorchief or cloth dipped in gasoline and wrung dry. This cleanses to some degree the wound, nnd by covering with a hand kerchief sterilized with tho gasoline prevents additional infection. Gaso- line quickly evaporates., and must quickly evaporate or it will cause a blister and do damage. For small cuts. Tincture of Iodine is a good antiseptic. A few drqps of .Lysol in a pan of water makes a good antiseptic solu tion for cleansing wounds and for washing the hands of tho person who docs the dressing. , When available this had probably better be used than gasoline. Cleanliness and asepsis is the im- portan't tiling always to remember, and It matters little how attained. It is much bettor to call a doctor for trivial things and bo on the safe side, than to fail to call him and later have serious results.—Health Bulletin. ---------------«------------------- EGGS BY WEIGHT. for necessary a new principle of legislation which Wilson was responsible. ^ It should not bo forgotten that the widely heralded clôture rule which proved so efi’ectivo in squelching a filibuster against the World Court in the Senate was originated and forced through the Senate by President Wil son in 1017, At tlie time he was con-' demned in many quarters as the rank est autocrat and dictator, and some even went so far as to suggest im peachment proceedings against him for so flagrantly usurping the legis lative functions of the Government, . The rule. which President Wilson wanted and finally succeeded in secur ing requh-es a two-thirds vote of the Senators voting to apply cloture, Vice- President Dawes would amend the rule by requiring only a majority vote to stop debate. At present, however, it looks very much as if tho Wilson rule is working splendidly and in all probability the Senate will not amend it. , ,No doubt many Senators often have regretted that they yielded so far to President Wilson in 1017 as to permit two-thirds of those voting to apply the gag.” The irreconcilable Reed of Missouri, when confronted with his vote for tho cloture rule nine, years ago, denied that he hnd then been in favor of it. He had voted for tho present rule, he wrathfully explain ed, in order to prevent the adoption of “a more stringent one.” “I may' have voted for cloture as a com promise,” he added, “but I was never for cloture.” The lash Wilson swung in those days must have been tor- rorizing to make Jim Reed vote for something he hated, yet that is the record if Reed himself is to be be lieved. * » * » _________ Mocksville Cooleemee * » Phone 133 Phone 5720 • * Prompt and Efficient Service * '-I I»., f.jJ r'.f I'll .T.'* М/ ». . ..

The very idea of making a fuss about the size of eggs! But nearly everybody is doing it now. Big eggs nowdays, when sorted out, command the best price. The little ones have to be mighty good in flavor and freshness to hold their own. And tho very ancient custom of countipg eggs by the dozen is in danger of passing out in favor of ' weighing them. Why, not? The value of an egg other things being equal depends on its liquid contents; and since it is awkward to measure them by the pint like other liquids,' it is natural to weigh them. A pound of eggs would mean just about the same thing every time, whereas one dozen of eggs may have twice as much "egg” as another dozen.

'No time-honored patriotic aid will eve,r hold an «qual place In the hearts of men.

To the NEA writer it was odd that -the song was written before Civil War and noting the item W. D. Bab- Jngton, Shelby man, adds a bit of in formation, concerning the waiting. It was written by Dan Emmet, a '»nlnatrel show player, and written in New York; natives of the big town perhaps know it not. The show with ■which Emmet was travelling at tho lime ■was -wintoring' in tho metvopolii BIG THINGS EVEHY MORNING. Charlotte Observer. Western North Carolina wnkes up every morning to somethmg new in the big proportions. The builders of new things plan enlargements over night, ns it were, before cleflnitely ad justing tho plans to the architect’s hand. There is the case of Groves, the Asheville developer. He had planned nn enterprise in construction work on the Battery Park plaza which would hnve involved an expenditure of $1,000,000, but he kept adding something to the plans until a M- stdry building'was created at a" co.st of $1,500,000. According to The Asheville Times, Mr; Groves has fin ally determined to construct a large hotel in connection with the mammoth building, to be nn integrnl pnrt-there of in that the central tower which is to vise 12 stories above the main two- story building will contain 188 rooms. There will be in all 160 stores nnd of fices, in addition to the hotel facilities, for which there hnve already been filed 180 applications which, it is to be noted, exceeds the number avai’.- able by twenty-six. And that is just one out of hundreds of examples of tlie way western North Carolina is doing thincs, these days. and Emmot through the writing in his spare time soon received $500. That wns nil In money, but before ho passed on he never rcniliied just what ho had given tho world. The . writer of Dixie is last remembered in Dixie as an aged man with the A1 Fields minstrels. When he died it ■was his request that Dixie be played as he was lower ed to his last resting place. Perhaps nfter all the creator was repaid—^re paid through the lilting inspiration of tlxe immortal strains.

Thero are more №ап 10,000 posts scattered in I -every part of the United States and througiiout the world.- llow Is it Conducted? Activities of tho national organi-га- tion aro carried on through the na tional convention, national oillcors, .-national comniittce and commissions, I itnd the staff of. national headquar ters. (Department and post activities [ siro carried on through thoir olTicers -•and committees. Tho National convention ia the au- Tireme governing body of the whole -organization, Authority is vested between conventions in the National 'Executive Committee and the,/ Na tional Commander. Oilicers and di- ■visions of the national organization ■operate under thoir direction. Who Is Eligible to Membership? Eligibility is deflned by tho consti tution (Article IV, Section D .thus: ■"Any person sliali bo eligible for ;memberahip in The American Legion who was regularly enlisted, drafted, or inducted or commissioned and who yfas accepted for and assigned to ac tive duty in the Army, Navy or Ma rino Corpa of the United Stntes at ■some time during the period between April C, 1017, and November 11, 1918, both dates inclusive, or who, being a ■citizen of tho-'United States at the time of his entry therein, served on «ctivo duty in the naval, military or air forces of any of the governments associated with the United States during 'the Gr'iat -War; provided that .■no person shall be entitled to niem- bersltip (a) who, bding in the Army, Navy or Marino Corps of the United States during said period refused on conscientious, political or other grounds to subject himself to mili tary discipline or unqualified service, or (b) ■who, being in such service was separated tiherofrom under circum stances' amounting to dishonorable ■discharge and has not subsequently been oUlcially restored to an honor able status." ÏS it Run by the Overseas Men? There is no rank in the Legion and no distinction between home service and foreign service. The Legion is an organization of veterans run by vetprans. 'Each one Ivas a voice. Is it Run by a Clique? The Legion as a nation-wide organ ization is not run by a clique. Its af- iairs are, under the constitution, con ducted by the ontiro membership through duly constituted officers, com- mittoca and conventions. Wily Join a Veterans’ Society? Because there is a natural desire to îiorpettuate associations formed under the hardships of war. There is com radeship and strength in organiza- ■tion. Individually, we may weigh but littiej organized, our voice and intiu- ence will be as far-reaching as our organization. How About Military Obligation? The Legion’3 constitution (Article II, Section 1) says: “The Af.terican Legion.is a civilian ■org-anization; membership therein <lo*8 not effect nor increase liability ior military or police service. Rank ■does not exist in tl« Legion; no member sball be addreesed by hia willtary or naval title in any ооптеи- *ion or meeMajf of the liglon." - Js % Lnilon PolltlealT ■ Ajbaolutely nfft.: Sc^ione 2 and 8, Ar{iole n ,^ tbe eoninitvilon ' i,rS*otion;2.;,.;-T^^ diull not bo used 'for the dlssomina- tion of partisan principles nor for tho promotion of the candidacy of any person seeking public oiiice or prefer ment. No candidate for or incum bent of a renumerative elective public office in The American Legion or in any department or post thereof. "Section 3. Each member shall perform his full duty bS a citizen ac cording' to his o^wn conscience and understanding.” Is the Légion Non-Sectarian? Absolutely. No diatincition of sect or creed is recognized. What le the Legion’s Purpose? 'Service--»ervice to community. State and Nation! Members of the Legion gave service while they were members of the armed forces of the United States in the World War. The Legion was organized that they might continue, to give the aame ser vice in time of peace as they gave in war. What Are Legion Principles? Principles .of tho Legion are set forth in the preamble of the consti tution: "For God and Country, we asso ciate ourselves together for the fol lowing purpo|es! “To uphold and defend the consti tution of the United Stntes of Amer ica; to maintain law and order; to foater and perpetuate a ono hundred per cent Americanism; to presei’ve the memories and incidents of our as sociation in fcho Great War; to incul cate a sense of individual obligation to thc community, Stato and Nation; to combat the autocracy of both 'tho classes and tho masses; to make right the master of might; to pro mote peaco and good will on earth; to safeguard and transmit to poster ity tho principles of juatico, freedom ^nd democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our comradeahip by our de votion to mutual helpfulness.” What About tho Uisabled? The Legion's flrst concern is for the disabled voterana of tho World War. A National Rehabilitation Committee, ■with genornl ollicoa in Waahington and field mon at strate gic paints over the country, is main tained. The committeo is in close liaison with the United States Vet erans Bureau and is tho center of a nation-wido system for assisting vet orans in getting thoir claims adjust ed. It is assisted on technical ques tions of care and cure by nn advisory council of loading medical and surgi cal experts. 'Departments and posts take an ac tive part in rehabilitation work, par ticularly in seeking out and contact ing men needing holp, Splendid work is dono by the Legion Auxiliary, made up of tlie mothers, wives, 'daughtora and sisters of Legion naires, in assisting families of the disabled. Nearly half a million dol lars was spen't by the Aijxillary in 1925 for this work alone'.’ The Legion insists on the best in care and cure for the disabled which is possible to modern medical science. It assists in obtaining the necessary legislation to provide proper treat ment ior them and to insure justice to them. It suggests impi4)vement3 in the methods and procedure of tho Veterans Bureau. It seeks out the disabled, a thing which the govern- mon't becnuso of its limited staff can not do. It helps to build up their claims and pushes them until the most favorable action possible under the law has been taken. In 1925 the 'National ¡Rehabilitation Committee nloiie ge^t awards for disabled men .ttytaling $2,028,575.06. The Legion expçsed the waste, confusion and inefficiency existing under the old plan of three separate governmental agencies to handle vet eran problems. It led the movement ■wihich resulted in the creation of the United States, Voterans Bureau in 1921. By the passage of the Reed- Jahnson bill in 192<i, it secured the decentralization of the bureau, This bill gave authority to make ratings and awards out in tho field in direct contact with the disabled. 'Laws affecting compensation, hos-, pitaiizatipn and, rehabilitation of the disabled have been constantly liberal ized and humanized by Legion efforts. In 1925, benefits under the Reed- Jghneon bill, during the flrst year of iKa operation, alone .totaled ^16,493,• Эвв to 39,Ш disabled, a moDK them Hhell-ÿhfocked, tubensulQiBls, blind aiid ’totally de^if vatenma, ,.

What Is the Relation Between thc Veterans Bureau and the Legion? Tho United Stntes Veterans Bureau is a government organization hand ling matters of hospitalization, com pensation, rehabilitation nnd war risk insurance of World War veterans. It was created largely as a result of Legion eiforts, but is no part of tho Legion organization. Thc Legion co operates very closely with it in mat ters affecting the disabled. Wat Doea the Legion Do In Amerl- kanlsm? In its Americanism work the Le gion aims to encourage a better citi zenship and to foitw throughout the Nation better opportunities for edu cation as a preparation for citizen ship. Emphasis is placed by the Na tional Americanism Commission on the duties and responsibilities of cit> izenship. Citizens are urged in a non-partisan way to vo'te. Education in all its phases receives the attention of the commission. Mat ters wihich have come in for Its ; par ticular attention are civics, illiteracy, physical education, stricter enforce ment of compuiaory school attend ance laws, and tho education, assimi lation and naturalization of tho for- eign-bom now in the country, Re striction of immigration to check the flood of those entering tho United States is consistently advocated. Re volutionary radicalism and extreme pacifism aro opposed at all times. Guidance is given in projects for civic bottorment.' iHundreds of theso are carried on each year by Legion posts in their local communities all over the country. American Education Week was in augurated by the commission in 1921 nnd is carried on in co-operation with more than 150 orgnnizations each year. A national essay contest Is iield annually for school children. A national flag code was formulated By conforences held in 1923 and 1024 at tho call of tho Legion. Plans for or ganizing base bail leagues of boys from fourteen to sixteen .years of ago and for staging competitions culmin ating in a junior world's series were formulated in 1025. What Does tho Legion Do for War Orphans? Tho Legion carries on a three-fold program for homeless World War or phans, giving to this work a place on i'ts program second only to the dis abled. The program involves homo nid, temporary care in a Legion Ijillot and placomont in foator homos found on carofui investigation to be suit able, A nation-wide organization is be ing set up to carry on this work. A National Childrens’ Welfare Commit teo of nine Lcgionnaire-s and throe members each of the Auxiliary and Forty and Eight has general charge. A spécial Children’s Wolfaro Divis' ion at national headquarters waa created to direct this program State, county nnd community commit tee's arc being organized as rapidly as jwasible. Definite stops wors taken in 1925 under tho aupervi-sion of the national division to eft’ect these sub committees in 'thlrtyjono States, Evory State in the Union is being organized as fast as may be. Through this organization contact with tho .homeless orphan ia estnb,-, lished and maintained. Surveys are made to find veterans’ children who aro homeless. Reports as to the steps necessary in individual cases are made to National Heaclquartors. Every assistance Is given to enable a father or mother to maintain the homo' and keep tho family together, as tho Legion believes that 'the natur al ihomo is the be^t possible for the child. Efforts are being made in co operation with local child-earing agencies to provide home aid and care, if possible. In 1925 the Chil dren’s Welfare Division worked out the problems of nearly 150 children by using resources provided locally. More than 3,000 children ■were aided directly -or indirectly by the Legion Auxiliary alone. Legion departments ■and posta have handled tiundreds of cases, themselves during 1925. Where no arrangement can be mado for homo care, the child is sent for temporary care during the im mediate «mergehcy to a children’s billets are run on the "cottage plan" with a ‘home mother’i in charge of each. iPJfty-two' children are now being cared for at Otter Lake, Michi gan.. (Eler№ more are at the billet ét Clarksboro, New Jeraey. A third billet haa just been opened at Legion- ?ll|ei ' near Independence, Kanaaa.

Eighty children have successfully passed tnrough the bil leting , stage and been returned to thoir families. Fos'ter parents are sought for chil dren whom conditions make it impos sible to re-^^stablish in., their own homes. A careful investigation is made, by the organization which is being created, to determine the quail- ifications of persons desiring to adopt children, 'fhe^"guiding principle is: Would I entrust a child of my own to a fomily whose home I am .inves tigating 7, A trial period, usually of islx months, Is Insisted upon to nmke sure Uiat the adoptive family and the child are suited to each other before adop tion tak es place. A child is kept constantly under careful supervision by the Legion organization both dur ing the trial period and after adop tion until the child reaches an age where it is able to look <nit for Itr sielf. What Doan the Legion De to H«lp Veterana Find Joba? Many departments, coimfty and dis trict organizations and posts main tain service officers or divisiona which, among other things, help vet erans to. file claims, get hospitaliza tion or medical care and find jobs. Most posts help veterans 'to get em ployment, whether they have a per manent organization for this pur pose or not. In the financial depression of 1921- 1922, a nation-wide drive was organ ized through tho National American ism ' Commission. Permanent em ployment was found for 500,000 vet erans and temporary jobs for 200,000 more. 'Hotels and lunchrooma were opened by the Legion In many cities. A total of $1000,000, it is estimated, was spent for relief of jobless vet erans. What Does the Legion Do In Legisla tion? Tho Legion supports ns its legisla tive program for 1920 legislation for the Universal Draft, a bill for retire ment of disabled emergency army of ficers upon the snmo terms ns other officers, for amendments to the Ad justed Compensation Act, and legis lation for disabled vetornns to cor rect inequalities which havo develop ed In tho laws aflfcetlng them. 'Every piece of legislation onacted for the benéfit of the disabled of tho World War, hns boon sponsored or supported by tlio Logion. Laws for hospitalization, compensation, rehabi- litiltion and hospital construction wore obtained from Congress. Those include tho bill for the creation of •the Vcitoran.? Bureau, the Reod-John- son bill, tho Sweet and Langley bills, anti others. Adjusted compensation was obtained ns a means of doing justice in part 'to those who 'SufTored e^ononric^ hanclicnps ns a rpsult of their war st-rvice. The Legion was largely instrumental in securing the' passage of the Army Reorganization Law of 1920 and, has supported logiS' latiot^for the adoQuatov development of tho natijJnal defense in all its branches. What Will the Legion Do For Mo? Tiie Logion’a program is in tho in terest of nil veterans. You will be represented by its National Rehabili tation apd Legiaiative Comniitteca at Washington..,,.'Vou ..wil' . bo ..kept in- formqd of your rights and privileges und'or all federal legislation of bene- fi't to voberaBs.

Under the national child wqlfare program, your orphaned chil dren may bo cared for, if nece.ssary, in the event of your death. What Are the Dues? There is a national per capita tax of one dollar a year. .Department dues are usually ono dollar a year, billot operated by tho Legion. 'I’he Post duos vary, depending on the amount of work done by the post. What Do My National Dues Accom plish? Of .’the national per capita tax of ono dollar a year, seventy-five eenta pays for a subscription to The Amer ican Legion Weekly. The remaining t'wenty-five centts goes to th'e general program. This includes American ism,' legislation, admlnistrartion of child welfare, general administration charge^ of National Headquartera, and'PIDAC ^ es. The Emblem Division and the Film Servi« are .self-sustaining and con tribute to , the fund for the 'general porogram.

Ia the Legion Militaristic? . The Legion is neither militaristic, nor paciliatic. It advoca'tes a mili- tairy preparedness , udequato to' tli'e world situaltion as it is.: It works for peace among the nations. K has co- operaited constantly with FIDAC ('lihe Interallied Veterans’ Federation) in its work for peace. At Its national convention in 1926 it adopted the fol lowing program for,peace; MaiiVtenance of adequaKie.froMs for ti" conv'enlent to your : new residence. Transfers are. provide i ed for and aro cons'tantly bei.ngr sued.

How About the -Trip to France? The American Legion ia .planning, to ’ hold its national - convention .int. Paris, France, in 1927, the tenth a»>- niversary of tihe landing of the A. . E.

What - la the Relation Between the Legion and Organized Lalxw? The . American Legion and the American Federation of 1лЬог have co-operated heartily in Amerkaniam work, in the forma'tion of a national flag code, in the. restridtion of im migration and in niany other activi ties. 'Representatives of the Federa tion havo attended and addressed na tional cçnventions of the Legion, and the Legion repros'en'tativea have apoken before Federation conventions for a number of years* The Legion, aa an organization, •haa notiiing to do with controversios betwo'en Labor and. Capital. Its only concern is such controversies is that law and order be maintained. There is nothing to prevent the individual member of the. L'cgion, as an individ ual, from taking either side in such a controversy, but the Legion, as an organization, does not. do ao. What la the American Legion En dowment Fund? ‘ Tho American Legion Endo^wmont Fund is' a fund which will soon reach $5,000,000, contributed by members of the Logion and tho Auxiliary and by tho general public jointly in a campaign conducted in every S£ate in the Union in 1926-’20.' Income ii'om tho fund, which is held intact as to principal, is devoted exclusively to the Legion’s rohabilitation and child welfare work. The American Logion .Endowment Fiind Corpora tion holds the fund in trust and turns o^ver the income-from it to the Le gion to be us'ed only for the two pur poses named. • Do I Gut Any Financial Return From My,, Membership? , Thé value of membership in The American Legion'can nb^ be measur- «d in dollars and cents. Yet,’through the work of the' Legion,' many vet erans have received veturns in such amoun'ts that the interest alone will more than pay their dues for life. As an illustration, the Legion spon sored tKe War Risk Insurance Act and the Keed-Johnaon bill, ; under which thousands of veterans are drawing from-$8 to $100 a month. In a number of States it has .secured the enaotmcnt of a law gran'ting. a state bonus nnd these have run as high as $500 person. It secured the enactment of thé Adjusted Compen sation Act of 1924, under which vet erans receive on an'average paid-up insurance of approximately $1,300. Each year the Legion obtains spécial (usually half fare) railroad ra'tes for its members to attend national and .state conventions. By becoming a member and planning your trips dc- cordingly, you may be able to save considerable sums of money. What Voice Will I Have in Legion National .'Policies?

We believe it has been intimated before in the columns ol this paper, but wo can’t say it too many times, nu town in-this country has a better place to develop into a real beauty spot than Mocksville. Tho big open space where tho old court house stood could be laid off and grassed. On it co-áld be created a monument to lihe Con federato veterans of Davie County, a mounment to the veterans of the World War, and any others that the people might, from time to time see fit to erect. Wo could call it “Monument Square,” and make it the pride of every citizen of the entire county. And it would attract outsiders passing through out county, and would be of groat value to tho town as an advertiser. Let our folks com mence to consider the idea of doing this.

And, while mitiee asked press correspondents j,o jy j,ot responsible for all that tho University of North Carolina I heard. j)„g jjone these past years, yet all who have been keeping an eye This brought a protest fi;om a ; work of our University the past five years, must adm>t that numbei’ of correspondents who I },Q j,j,g made good. The great work now going on at Chapel Hill contended they could not forget started by the late President Graham, that brilliant young unless ushered from the commit-■ having laid the foundation deep and wide during his short tee room and notified they had brilliant administration. Dr. Chase has followed up the work started by Dr. Ci'aham, and has even added to the big program. The results are that the University of North Carolina is now recognized as ono of the really groat American Universities. And with: the promising future of our own state University, we rather doubt wheth er or not Dr. Chase can be induced to change for the far west. The Greensboro Daily News just about speaks the sentiments of most interested and informed North Carolinians when it says: “There is nothing surprising in the fact that the University of Oregon wants Dr, Chase as president. It is impossible for a man to write such a rocord us Dr. Chase, has written at Chapel Hill in the past fivo years without attracting attention, especially in his own field, all over the country. The educational world knows what ed that the correspondents were ; jj„g jjeen going on at the University of North Carolina, knows some- not particularly interested in this, of th,, gpii-it of that institution, has long recognized its rolid part of the information, the hear-j gcholarly basià and liberal attitude, and has'kept in touch with its ings proceeded without further recent development.' The remarkable tributes which have been paid, to it in tho north and west as well as in the south and not loosely thrown about by men devoting their lives to education. They know what they are talking about when they give to any institution; and they know that Dr. Chase has been its leader during a peculiarly important period of its life. If there has been nothing else tO' call their attention, to him, the constant fight which Dr. Chase has waged for tho, right to think has made him conspipuous in every university in America. Actually there is a great deal else to bring him to their attention, and they know that, too. “It is unnecessary for the Daily News to say that it hopes. Dr. Chase will see the ripeness of the North Carolina field. He came to it at a time when the richness was not so obvious as-it is now but thero is excellent reason to think that even then arid in spite of the fact of his limited acquaintance with it he saw far into the future that is now the present and into the future that is still ahead. The state has had no more loyal Tar Heel than this transplanted citizen baa become, and the state has had no man in it? public life to whom is assigned a more, difficult task. The record of what he has been and what he has done is clear, and the state and the country know it. “But Dr. Chase must surely know that the demand for his leader ship is more insistent than at any other time, that the need for his sanity, freedom of spirit and courage is more acute in 1926 and the years ahead than it was when he took oifice and that the overwhelm ing voice of his adopted state càlls on him.to remain her citizen and her university president. His place is here, and the state ought to see to it that he understands that important truth.” COTTON CLOTHE _____ : SHÖW: lNCUEASr!¡, 'OVER PREVIOUS 'YEAH- AVashingtbrt,: Feb. 6; ànce of the; army and reserve organ1zati(^i''l sent ; strength for tho;............ year was provided in the a n n u a i^ jlfp S war department appкopr^ationJ^^iЦ•Й^]i(l®■!^'5.;reported to the house. , Carrying a total of $339,681i“'-' poo, 'the : measure would >authç»flzè;.^&^® an'increase in oipçndituree $6,965,000. over funds-^nowv'.n'vaill, i''.;.

I 1 feei ho explanation will come from the National Board of offlc- ers, and therefore one must come from the State Bourd. ; Just a bit of history. All will ’•'.recall that for years previous to ',:il92i,V.;at( ey meeting of pur State' Coun fight was made - to inaugurate a movement towards ■ biiilding by the State Council an orphanage in the Stute that would ' care sölely for tho children of members of the Order in North . Carolina. We all see that it was '^wlsei that such an undertaking ;was abandoned. However, it was seed sown, that sprouted' some ■good.. So at the meeting of the ^ State Council in Wilmington in 1 1922, a Resolution'was adopted ./ to the elT^ct thot if the National '■]>,Council would; locate "a Branch :,V^Oi^hahage (a thing, to all appar- ¿¡V'ently^ the memb- yvershlp^ i^ North Carolina would l';0;pass the necessary legislation to |;-';;Colle^ per quar- jj.; tor from each member for five : ■ years, which would be contribut- > ed to said orphanage; rather I ; . believe the resolution adopted nt , Wllniington wos such that -tho machinery for tho collection of ^ said amount from ouch member - ■ would automatically go into effect kithin ninty days after tho Na tional Council through its Board ; located such orphanage in this ■ State. Tile State Council fur ther pledged that it would secure a suitable site, either by paying ____ ___ ... ________ for same or securing tho site from our State Councilor h^aThad^’c^^^^ Board to execute notes for tho balance of our pledge in such de nomination's and for such time as thè said notes could be met with t he I lecti 0 ïr wë^naïl ë~ f or su c h purpose. That is what each and every member of our Board under stood what they would be, and now understand that they are, empowered to do. Anyone read ing the resolution above referred to will so construe it. Every one who recalls the passing of said resolution will recall that some one stated on the floor at the time, that the resolution meant what I have stated was the agreement on 'the presentation of the resolution between all that discussed it. Fiollowing the meeting of the State Council the State Board ex ecuted notes in denominations of 110,000.00 each, due and payable at intervals covering’ three years, payable at such Intervals as we could meet them from collections made for the purpose which such notes were given. These notes were sent to the National Secre tary by the State Councilor, the receipt of which the an\d secre tary „acknowledged with thanks. Later the State Councilor got a letter from the National Counci lor in which he stated that the notes were not executed in ac cordance with the agreement, and in addition thereto were not nego tiable. In neither instance was the National Councilor correct for they were executed as agreed to by our State Councilor; and again the notes wero in due form for any note; dates, having a pay er, a payee, from an amount cor- tain and payable on. a date cer tain is negotiable. I suppose the National Councilor meant the not es were not "bankable.” in November, 1925, our State Board met with the National Board at a District Meeting in Reidsvllle, N. C., relative to the execution of the notes. The dis cussion as to the notes was led by National Councilor ‘Walters for the National Board. He still contended that wo, the State Board, had not carried out our agreement according to the ref' solution herein referred to. He suggested we should, and ought to execute notes due in threo, four and six months in the,,sum aggregating $150,000.00. Our Bourd told him that we had no such authority, that we could not and would not execute any such notss. He suggested that in view of that, work would be suspended on the Branch orphanage; and it was suspended. Some time in December, after take care of tho note, when due that party wo would be unable to meet, would be tho i)oorest and loosest business, I can imagine. If a State Board of olHeers were to do such a thing (even though in bohaif of the greatest work in God's Kintidom hero bolow) then the State Council ought to meet and kick the members of that Board out of oflice on account of lack of judgement and broach of trust. I will never be a party to our Board pledging the forty or ADVEIITISIIIG FIIIM PKODIICIS-A DISCUSSION OF METiiODS TO USE iifty thousand dollars in tho gen eral fund, (a small amount per capita) for some other purpose other than that for which it stands, until'told to do so by the State Council. The National Councilor can blame no one but himself or his Board, for tho work stopping at Lexington, on account of which stopping great damage will be done the unfinished building. He nor they cannot say he or they were taken by surprise. The plans under which the bulldlngs-are be ing constructed were adopted and much building under same done before the National Council met in Chattanooga last June. The whole plan was being worked be fore our State Council met, in August. And if they did not have the money in sight, they should have. Arrangements should have been made at Chattanooga for taking care of the situation. I believe in having and work ing with and under constituted authority: and tho State Board is trying to do that. Still I think it '¡s. due the membership that they should know the full facts. We hope some brethren will see tho light and act reasonably, and that the matter would bo adjust ed peaceably, as it has peaceably boon handled so far. I bolicve it will. Fraternally yours, R. M.

During the moetjng of the State Council in Winston-Salem in 1925, a resolution (found on page 86 official proceedings) was adopted us a paper w.viting under seal assuring our Board that our State Council would not be called upon to pay part of notes, except by curtail ing the note at tho end of each quarter by turning over that amount collected for tho branch aythorizing our State Bourd in orphanage. This tho National ■tho name of the State Council and in consideration of our pledge, to execute notes payable to the Na tional Council; said notes to bo of such denominations and for such time as the State Board may de termine, aggregating ?150,000,000. This resolution was adopted, as it states, for the purpose .of mak ing more money immediately avai lable in order to carry through in the shortest possible time the work that had been started on tho Branch Orphanage “that quicker and greater relief be given our orphan children.” It was ’ first suggested in Winston-Salem by ^he .National Board following a conference had with our National Eepresentativos at the meeting of the National Council in Chatta nooga in June, 1925. For more than a day before this resolution was •'passed, or even proposed to the State Council ot Wlnaton- Salem it was discusaed generally among delegates and certainly wnong all State officers. It waa generally understpod and posltlve- .1y BO that |he resolution proposed ;v: I ‘ 11. «,c ' J Councilor refused to do, saying his word should be sufllcient. Our word in making our pledge" of $250,000.00 should have been suf- flci^ent for the National Board to have borrowed money on; but we have offered to do better, and all Wo havo been authorized to do. In fact we havo oiTered more than I believe tho said resolution em powers our Board to do, certain ly more than the State Council thought wo would be called upon to do. But in making our last proposition, which has been re fused, we believe that so long as ivo wiould be safe-guarded that the State Council would approve and validate our act.

He has entered in upon hia duties actively, after a period of illness, nnd already a number of councils have been visited by him in East ern North Carolina. Recently a number of the Coun cils have been consolidated for the good of tho Order in the sec tions concerned. State Councilor Lincke has granted a dispensation for the consolidation of Zebulon Council No. 522 with Wendell Council No. 200 and reports re ceived from Wendell indicate that the members aro loyal Juniors and are interested in seeing the work continue.

It has been proven repeat- ^laggjfled advertisement, ediy that by increasing the num ber of sales, the co.?t of selling is decreosed. i'armers know that by Increasing the acre yield of cotton by fertilizers or other means, the cost of growing a pound of cotton can be reduced. What many of them have not learned is that advertising has the same effect on the cost of selling a product that increased acre yields have on the cost of growing a product. Good adver tising will bring the farmer divi dends just as it has brought divi dends to the mon in the industrial world. It will enable him in rea son to sot his own price on the goods ho produces—a thing that he has longed to do ever since farmers began to produce beyond their own needs. There is no mystery in adver- ,tising. Investigation and practi- V'ai. results hnvo proved it to bo a safe investment where the buy er is familiar with the fundamen tal principles. An advertisement should do' four things: (1) at tract attention; (2) arouse in terest; (8) create desire; (4) ef fect a sale. Advertising in Newspape|rs and Farm Papei's Whore a farmer has a small n- mount of stock or seed for sale, he can very often use his county weekly, and sometimes his daily paper, to good advantage. A lit tle time spent in finding out the country circulation of the paper, its policy, opinions, etc., will generally repay tho prospective', advertiser many times over. To sell a considerable volume of high class products, farm pap ers must be used. Farm papers are read less hurriedly than news papers, and usually stay in the home longer; hence, the life of an advertisement in farm papers is longer than that of the news paper advertisement. Fuvtheii'- more, tho fact thnt farm papers publish articles about good seed and well bred stock convinces the reader that he should have these products, and helps to create a demand for the products adver- tised in tho paper. Farm papers are also in position to help you write your advertisement. Farm paper advertisements must be mailed at least 10 days to two weeks before they aro to bo published. This makes it ne cessary that daily papers be used when a farmer suddenly decides to advertise and must reach the buyer quickly in order that his products may bo in season. Before advertising in a farm paper, one should analyze its circulation—see where its read- located. Perhaps, Making Display Ads Effective. Display advertisements must accomplish three things:. First, they must get the reader’s atten tion. Then he must be convinc ed that the product will satisfy him; and Anally he must be made to act. Attention is usually at tracted by the size, position and make-up (of the advertisement. Gtood illustrations attract atten tion. The size of the advertise ment should depend upon the a- mount of live stock, seeds or plants there is to sell, and the money available for advertising. It should bo borne in mind that the results produced will not al- wavs be increased in proportion ance, read Romans 8:1-30. to the increase in the size of tho', For Paul’s secret of happiness, advertisement. Where the money available for advertising is limit- When in sorrow, read John 14. When men fail you, read Ps alm 27. When you have sinned', read Psalm 51., When you worry, read iNtatthew 0:9-24, Before Church service, read Ps alm 84. When you are in danger, read Psalm 91. When you have the blues, read Psalm-34;----------------------------------- When God seems far away, read Psalm 139. When you are discouraged, read Isaiah 40. If you want to be fruitful; read John 15. When doubta come upon you, read John 7 tl7. When you are lonely or fearful, read Psalm 23, When you forget your bleaaings, read Paaim 103. For Jesua’ idea of a Christian, read Matthaw 5. For James’ idea of religion, read James 1:19-27. When your faith needs stirring, read Hebrews 11. When you want courage for your task, read Joshua 1. When the world seems bigger than God, read Psalm 90. When you want rest and peace, road Matthew 11:25-80. When you want Christian assur- od, the direct results will usually bo bettor if sovernl amullor ad vertisements aro used rather than onb'or two large ones. The ad vertisement should bo made easy to read by using short paragraphs and lines of about tho same leng th. Headings toll a brief story, nnd if short and interesting, help to get the reader’s attention. Condensed type and . frequent underscoring give tho advertise ment a disorderly appearance, while wholo parapraphs set in capital letters, bold-face type, or italics make.it tiresome, to read. As in classified advertising, tho outstanding characteristics of the product should be stressed. A single idea should bo presented, as many appeals tend to confuse or weakOn the reader’s Impression. Quality is usually a good point to stress. It is better to suggest what the advertiser wants tho reader to do, than to tell him what not to do. “Use n pure bred” sire is bettor than "Don’t use a scrub,” Specific words should bo used, words that really tell how the product is best. Words like "best,” "never before”, etc., are so broad and general they don’t mean much. The final aim of tho advertise ment is to make the reader send in the order. The easier the ac tion is that you ask him to per form, the more readily will he perform it. Thus it is easier for iiim to send a post card or fill out and send a clipping than to write and mail a letter. FORD MADE GOOD PRODUC TION IN 1925 'read Col. 8:12-17. When you leave home'for labor or travel, read Psalm 121. When you grow bitter and criti cal, read 1 Corinthians 13. When your prayers grow nar row or selfish, read Psalm 07.

Sentinel. Raleigh, Feb. 10,—It' is time now for fruit-growers to prepare for the first sprny of the season, the delayed dormant sprny. This is one treatment that should be given every orchard every year. It, primarily, is a control' for scale insects but aphids or plant lice aret also controlled when the spray .is made nt the right time, "Tïïi“ delnyed dôï'mnnt spray was formerly made any time dur ing the winter,” says C. H, Bran non, extension entomologies at Stnte College, "Growers now nre advised to apply it just before the buds swell in the spring. It is more effective if used in thia way. Apple trees may be spray ed a littlei Inter to control the plant, lice, which will be at the time when green can be seen in the blossom buds. With peach trees, however, the delayed dor mant spray should be given be fore the buds swell to control leaf curl as well as insect pests.” Mr. Brannon states thnt oil sprnys are coming into use now and arei effective in controlling scnle and pleasant to apply. Thèse oil sprays can be prepared by the grower at home but if ho has on ly a few trees it will be best to uao the prepared sprays. In no case should worthless sprays oj’ spray materials be bought. There are many excellent products on the market, states Mr. Brannon, and growers should obtain au thoritative information before buying their materials for the season. Where there is leaf curl in the orchard, growers should use eith er the lime-sulphur or lime*-sul- ])hur mixed with oil for tho de- Inyed dormant spray, advises Mr. Brannon. Oils have no disease controlling value. Concentrated lime-sulphur will give.good re sults as the daloyed dormant spra,y nnd ia both nn insecticide nnd a fungicide. ■■ To secure late advice about spraying directions and schedul es, tho fruit growér should have a copy of the "Apple Spray Cal endar” and "Control Methods of Peach in.sects,’' both extension circulars issued by State College and free to growers of the State aa long ns the ^.present supply lusts.

According to those growers pre sent, an interesting program of lectures, demonstrations and prac tices dealing with every phase of orchard management was con ducted. The interest with which the various talks and demonstra tions were received was indicated by the extended discussions by the growers after each item of the program. Some of the main pointa stress ed were the proper rnisling of young fruit trees for highest pro duction, best and latest methods of sprnying, how to puck apples In boxes for high class trade and how to cultivate nnd manage the soil for quality production of fruit.

It is known that some ouiside inter- usts are ut least looking, into the the gold mining proposition in Davie.

Time was not many years ago'when such weather al most made it impossible to travel from New York to Chicago. Now the big express trains arc hardly over hindered, while tho airplan es even make bettor time. And ilying as a practical art is yet in its infancy. One has a lot more respect for Luther Burbank, whatever his stand may be, or may have been, «s to whether there is a hell, than for that San Francisco preacher who Invited hUn to desecrate ids pulpit last Sunday morning with his atheistic utti,rances. Bur- '^bank, though tho world’s greatest -plant wizard, knows just about as much about theology as a flee knows about the planet Mars. We can, therefore, take his statements against the established religious . belief, as next to harmless, but a Christian minlsto^- who is exi- pected to defend the Christianity, ought to know better than to turn over his pulpit to a man who only a little more than a weeit before has made public confession to be- inp an infldel. ---------------♦--------------- Speaking of tho Florida Boom, . the Gastonia Gazette, quoting B. ■ . C. Forbes, carries a fine line of discussion in the following edi torial: ‘“ Weather is a thin diet unless - mixed with something more sub stantial,' ‘‘This is tho interesting—and sound—comment, of B. C. Forbes, well known (Inancial writer, in a discussion of Florida and Cali fornia. “Mr. Forbes’ idea is that in dustry together with agriculture, present the basis for sound pros- lierity, and that climate is a se condary, though of course im portant, feature. ‘Califorina,’ he says, ‘has been energetically de veloping her agricultural resourc es, her oil resources and latter, her industrial possibilities, thanks to an abundance of cheap hydro electric power,’ Mr, Forbes says that’Florida does hot possess the same industrial potentialities, but convinced that North Carolina people who have been spending huge sums for Florida real es tate could make just as much money at home on the same in vestment. While our mountain real estate is becoming more valu able every day, one doesn’t have to go there .necessarily to make money in dirt. Real estate values in Concord are mounting every day. It is the same in every oth er section of the State. “Florida has climate, backed by rich soil which is not developed. North Carolina has climate, in dustry, fine soil in a .high state of cultivation and natural resour ces of great value. “We cannot understand why a Tar Heel has to go to Florida to get rich in real estate.” When the boom starts here we will have more than climate to back it up. This section has real .talking points. We have good roads, schools, colleges, i water power—developed and undeviiilop- ed; great manufacturing industri es, excellent labor conditions and a climate that, take it the year ojround, will beat Florida or any other »sction of the country. servatism of ago? God has made it so. He had to, if He would save tho race from dry rot and death. Youth is no more radical than it lias ever been. We got in the habit of this sort of talk in the hectic days of the war when men hardly knew what they were saying and most of it was utterl.v without foundation in fact. For instance, it was said that we would need a new religion and a new church and a different social order for the boys when they came back from the war. But the big majority of them are in all essentials like they'were be fore they went away. The only notable change in them was that each and all are sick and tired of war. But the prophecies of what they would be like upon their return have all gone up in smoke. Let’s stop, we repeat, talking “backwash,” youthful ra dicalism, a new social order and such like “sounding brass,” .and deal with the present world as it is and not as some imogino it is. —N. C.

Lexington folks in particular, nnd Juniors throughout North Carolina and in other states, gene rally, will undoubtedly be delight ed with the news that work is to be resumed immediately on the construction of the initial unit of the branch National Junior Order Orphans Home at South Le/xing- ton. Our folks hero have been pati ently awaiting the working out of mutually agreeable plans for the continuation of this work. They have generally felt all along that the impasse that existed since last November could not continue, 'foo much was at stake for mere details to stand in the way of early consummatioii. But in re cent weeks there has been a noticeable bit of chafing at the bit, ns it were, for Lexington ia and has been anxious that this great home be comple.ted and put to work as ijuickly as possible. The Juniors throughout North Carolina likewise have been a lit tle impatient: not that they did not trust their State and National officers to see the thing through, but because this home is a dream of years and now that it was und er way it was but natural that they should be eager to see it brought to fulfillment. , And to the Junior Oorder in the nation at large there must come ,a sense of fine satisfnctioa thnt Councilor Walters has found a way to continue active opera tions here on an impressive scale. The.se have seen the great plnnt at Tiffin nnd know something of the ineatimnble worth of its work, nnd they naturally want to' see the effort carried forward by another great arm of this out standing benevolence. Since the North Cnrollna Coun cil nnd the Nntional Council hnve such a closely .ioined common in terest in this home, it i.s incum bent upon both to work in the. closest hnrmony possible. We feel sure thnt these gentlemen hava before them at all times the true object of this undertaking, the orphan child, and that they will at no time permit nny other con sideration to, come- between them nnd a clear vision of tho ultimate goal. Councilor Walters is also to be congratulated upon securing al ready pledges of cooperation in future building from Pennsylva nia' nnd South Carolina Juniors.

Not thjit pneumonia is always preceded b.r either of these for often it is not— often it comes like a bolt from a clear' sky. Pneumonia is associated in our thoughts with colds nnd in fluenza because it is a respiratory in fection nnd the discussion of it fol lows the discussion of them because it is the most often fatal. It is-safe—t(r say, however,. ~thnt pneumonia is always preceded by something which debilitated. Often this was a cold or influenza but it may hnvo been unusual fatigue or exposure.; If there is added to this factor of debility nn Irritation of the lungs, as colds or influenza will do, then pneumonia is much more likely to occur. Pneumonia has sometime» follo^\\’«d an ether anaesthetic for some sui-igical operation. The cause of pneumonia is a spe cific germ — the pneumonococcus— which grows, when planted, and multi plies in sor.ie'part of the lung struc ture. Like other infections this bac teria when growing eliminates a sub stance which is peculiarly toxic to the human being. Catarrhal pneumonin, or broncho- pneumonin ns it is often called, is more common in ehildt-en and tho aged. In children it often follow» measles or whooping cough. Croupous pneumonia is often 'call ed lobnr pneumonin, fibrinous pneu monin, acute,pneumonia or pneumoni tis. Lobar pneumonin occurs most ly between tho ages of twenty nnd fifty and stntistius show thut thoru are four times as many cases, in wo men as hien. In three-fourths of th(‘ eases -of lobar pneuinonia the lower lobe of the right lung is affected and in one-half of tho cases this lobe is alone the sent of the disease. Unlike most other infectious dis eases one attack of pneumonia does not protect against subsequent at tack. No immunity is produced and the lung once diseased is more likely to again become infected. Also the lung thut has been crippled by pneu monia is much more susceptible to tubercular infection. Pneumonia is often ushered in with a chill, rapid rise of temperature, and with pains in tho chest. When this happens you can"t get a doctor toó quick, nnd don’t wait until ho comes to go to bed. Negligence at thia time may cost a life, beans were cultivated in rows. Plant ing in rows also requires only half as much seed, “Land to be planted in soybeans should be well broken and worked into a good seed bed,’ ’says Mr, Blair. “This careful preparation will pay better for soybeans .than for most other crops. Run the rows three feet apart and place the fertilizer in the rows. The best fertilizer for west ern North Carolina conditions is 300 to 400 pounds per acre of a 12-0-4 or the same amount of a 12-2-4 on poor soils. Mix tho fertilizer in the soil to avoid burning the seed. Forty pounds of Mammoth "Sfellow, ' 16 pounds of 'Virginia or 10 pounds of Laredo beans Will plant an acre in rows three feet apart. Plant .the beans with a corn planter, using a plate that drops a seed every six inches. For the small seeded varie ties, use a plate with small holes. Plant the beans level and cover light ly, They will not come up if covered deeply, nor will they come through a hard crust,” Mr, Blair states that cultivation should begin when the plants aro from five to six inches high. Three cultivations are usually enough but more should bo given if necessary to control grass and weeds. By follow ing these suggestions, Mr, Blair be lieves that the western grower can have success with the soybean crop.

February ,11, 192B I E FACTS I I m p o r t a n t facts ' iwery motorist Hhould know in order to save money on automobile tires Jhei't* ia hardb*-any-artichr-rn- I general use today that gets more iibuse or that is more responsive to proper treatment than the au tomobile tire. Every year literal ly miliion.<) of miles of tire service jire lost through failure on the part of car owners to take proper care of their tires. Once the caus. «a and effects of various tire I ¿«buses are understood, the care of tires is so simple that there really is no cxcuse for not geittir.g out I «f them the mileage the manufac* turers have built into them. This information applies to all makes of tires. It is based pn the cxperieneei of the tire industry— not on that of any one company jtlone. It is published with tho Him of helping you get the best possible service from your tires regardless of the particular .make you may be using. Under the terms of the Manu facturers’ Standard Warranty, tires injured through neglect or misuse are not subject to claims -for allowance for undelivered servicc. To give maximum service •a tire must contain tho proper nir pressiiro at all times, since it is the air cushion within the tire which supports the weight of the car. When properly Inflated tho tire stands full and round. When under-inflated the sidewalls bend or flex shnri)ly with ench turn of the wheel. The bending 4ind flexing produces thnt which softens the rubber between tho layers of fabric or cords. Finally the layers separate and begin to chafe and rub against each other. Sooner or liiter tho layer next to the tube breaks. This break l)inchos or chafes tho tube and results In a slow leak or a ragged Ijlowout. Clincher casings, when under-inflated, may also develop another condition commonly known as "rimcutting.” When the tire does not contain enough nir to keep it properly rounded, tho side-walls chafe against tho edge of the rim. Other tire troubl es in addition to those mentioned may be caused directly or in- (liredtly l)y under-inflation. For example, a carcass break, or “stone bruise” can more onsi- ly,hnppen in an under-inflated tiro. A sharp joult may drive the tiro in against the rim, producing a break or tear in the fabric or cords. In a properly inflated tire ihe air cushion would probably absorb the shock without damage. Insuflicient inflation may also cause separation of tho tread rub-- ber from the carcass or body of Ihe casing. Occasionally a “soft” tire will slip on the rim when the power is applied or the brakes are set. A ruined tube is the re sult, For all of these tire troubl- •es the remedy is proper inflation. Proper inflation means maintain ing tho correct pressure at all times. You may .inflate your tires to the proper pressure and then forget them until the pres sure is entirely too low. That spells “trouble.” Learn the cor rect inflation figure for»your tires and then - see that the pressure does not fall below the danger point.. To be sure the pressure in your tires is above the safety line irot a reliable air gauge and use it regularly—about once a week. 'I’here is a limit to the load that n tire can carry with safety. If it is required to carry u load- greater than that it will flatten ■out in much the same way as when under-inflated and will soon sepa rate under the edge of the tread or break down in the sidewall. An oversize tire (i. e., a tire of the next larger marked size) should always be used to take care of overloading, because its larger size and greater air capaci ty enable it to carry heavier loads than the regular size. Oversize tires fit the same rim as the re gular size tires but are larger, with a greater air capacity, and consequently their use results in increased ridiiig comfort and low er operating cost. The specially designed fabrics used in building casipgs l^ave , ex ceptional atrengtl», yet thW,. c a n bn ruptured or broken under se vere strains or shocks. This is true of both cord and fabric cas ings. ThoM injuries occur from atrikine rocks in the roadway (deep holes in the pavement, also from driving agaihiit curb», etc.) Suclt carcass breaks , nuy occuft ■without immediiitrtyLaffecting the s^ryiceaWKty Of the eating. The tough, and elMtic traad ru)>ber will frequently show no outwnyil evidence of injury. Possibly on ly a few strands of fabric have been broken but subse^quent st ra i n s-a nd-the-eont i mred^flextny of the tire as it runs enlarge the injury until it either chafes or pinches the tube causing a low leak or a blowout. Such breaks sho(ild be, immediately repaired by a competent vulcanizer. A temporary roadside repair can be made by means of a boot or a blowout patch but the prolonged use of either will allow the break to grow in size until it is beyond permanent repair. The rubber tread of a casing will give uniformly satisfactory service under normal conditions. The causes most often responsible for too rapid tread wear are the various forms of wheel irregulari ties, such as misaligment, im proper camber, wobbles and un evenly adjusted brakes. These conditions can be brought about by such things as bent axles, bent steering knuckles, a loose bear ing, a broken spring, a bent spin dle, or__ anything which prevents the wheels from tracking prop^er- ly. Excessive brake application, spinning of the wheel.s, or a rim unevenly placed on a wheel will also cause undue tread wear. A tiro which does not run true drags with a side motion as it re volves. This has nbout the same effect as rubbing the tread with a rasp filo—the rubber is worn away very rapidly. When there ia any evidence of premntui'e tread wear it |s well to have your car thoroughly inspected for nny irregularities such as those list ed above, In fact, it is good policy to have such an inspection made occasionally to guard a- guinst these troubles. Anti-skid devices are common causcd of in jury to the trend of casings. Such devices may be necessary under certain road conditions but to con tain the longest wear from a cas ing they should be used unly when actually needed. Chains should always be appli ed loosely. Tight chains will cause extra pressure and com pression of the casing at the point of contact with tho ground, causing the cross links to cut and gouge into tho rubber cover and tho fabric underneath. Caro should be taken also to see that the rounded sides of the links lie against the rubber so that tho roughly clinched ends of tho cross links will come next to the road surface. Often a sharp stone, pieces of glass, iron tin or tlie sharp edges of a swilch-point will cut the toughest kind of tread. If neg lected, the flexing action of the tire will enlarge the cut. The foreign' matter will deteriorate, chafe and weaken the carcass and prefaturo failure will result. Watch for these little tread thnt cuts in your casings. See to it that necessary repairs are made promptly. Either do it yourself with a little plastic patching rub ber, or hnve it done by a vulcan izer. Otherwise, hundreds of tire miles may be lost. Plastic patch ing rubber is sold by all dealers. The side of a casing is provided with sufficient rubber to with stand ordinary wear, but it is not nearly so thick ns the tread rub ber and is more easily injured, liunninf and spinning a tire in ruts, scraping it ngninst curbs, driving over rough frozen ronds, and occasionally an accident, will tear and gouge off the siiiowall rubber and expose the carcass of the casing. AVhen once exposed, the fabric may be badly damaged in a short time by water, sand, dirt, or foreign substances of nny kind.Such side-wall injuries can easily be repaired if taken prom ptly to an experienced vulcanizer. The average automobile owner pays very little attention to the steel rims on which his tires are mounted, yet this neglect often cause the loss of many miles of the tire service, oare shpuld bo used to see that ^the-rims are true so trat the tires* fit perfectly. A bent rim or any vnration in the rim contour will not alloiy the: tire to fit properly, at that point anâ 'sobiièr or later will caiise tire trouble. Running on a flat tire or a ri;pi from which the tire haa beeri? removed, ,or striking some object in the ^ d w a^ will producé this damage. ^hen it ii evident that a d№^^ aged^rim ip injuring it is well to buy a new rim, Vecauie It is prac- tically impoflsible' to repair the le ,sAt)ilAct9ri|y and the THE MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE nniNG BACK MY PROFITS TO ME At the recent meeting of the National Council of Cooperatives' nt Washington, D.

To avoid this trouble tho 1 Mr. Parker has come to the con- rlm should be thoroughly cleaned nnd then given a coat of rim paint, which can be obtained from your tire dealer. The tube is a vitally important factor in good tire service. If it fails to hold air properly, it is impossible to maintain tho correct pressure which is so essential to the life* of the tire. Consequent ly, the tube requires at least as much attention as the casing. The tube should be carefully inserted so that it will not be injured by the tirei tool or pinched between the head of the casing and the rim. A tube pinched in this way will generally blow out immediate ly although sometimes the blow out will not occur until the tire has run several miles. This oc- curance can be largely obviated by first inflating the tube so that it is rounded out before applying it to the casing.' After the tire is on the rim and before it is ful ly inflated, it should be bounced several times so as to allow the tube to assume the proper posi tion. Before applying a tube, the inside of the casing should bo in spected and all dirt or other fore ign substnnce which might even tually cut into the tube should be removed. It is also well to tighten the valve inside as well as the nut at the base of the valve stem. In straight-side tires, tho flap must be carefully placed so that jt will afford the proper protec tion to the tube. A wrinkled flap- will generally cut the tube, caus ing n slow lenk. After the flap is placed in the tire, a little more nir should be added in tho tube so thnt it will expand and hold the flap in position. This will help to avoid wrinkling and makes it easier to apply the tire to the rim. When the tire is on thé wheel, screw the lock nut down tightly on the valve stem to hold it firmly in position and to prevent dirt and moisture from working down inside tho casing. Then ap ply tho valve cap. This should also be screwed down tightly so that it will hold the air. in the tube eveh- if the valve should le«k. A dust cap should then be applied as a pi;otection against dirt and grit. In case of a puncture or blowout, change tirea at once. Running on a flat tire fpr any dis tance will damage the tube and the casing, often beyond repair. Spare tubes should be ehtir'ely de> flated and< folded in a bag, Hhia will protéct them agalntlt chaflng inithei :tôor,T(i«r andr a^ grcÿsèa pind t’oili whic> ar« very elusion that “there is a real basis! for' Florida’s reputation, and ono ' worthy of study.” He advances this conclusion, not as “propa ganda,” but merely as an honest opinion. “The only way to understand it nil is to go, see, study cnrefully nnd make comparisons. Ono must look beneath the surface of .any widely advertised situation to learn true conditions. There is nn old saying that where there | is smoke, fire wil 1 usually be found. “Florida really has much'to of fer, but she has dangerous as well as good opportunities. It is a good state to offer inspiration and belief in the possibilities of real estate dbvelopments. Fhiisight- ed men may, to good advantage, go there and get ideas, carry them back to their home towns, and im prove their natural surroundings advantageously. , “Her biggest word-factor and the most unanswerable argument advanced is that of ‘climate.’ Of course, the best climate is that to be found in the southern half of the state and particularly near er the southern end. As may be expected, even the, climate is,ex aggerated. North of Palm Bcnch it takes considej-nble ‘nerve to en joy’ Inke and surf bathing in tho winter, but the climate and (lorn is absolutely delightful. “Most critics immediately ad vance the idea that there is no real basis for Florida’s phenomi- nal rise In real estate values, that she has no basic industries nor agricultural development, outside a limited citrus industry; that she is too far south anci isolated from the rest of the United States to develop other than the agricul tural industry, and this industry offers its best opportunity where the cheapest land can be bought. Thus outside of a limited truck ing and citrous development, Flo rida has little to oflfer, in an ac tual agricultural develppment, as compared'with North' Osri^lina', in the peninsular part of the state, ^ “As a matter of fact, going in to' the Btate trom either Valdost4' or Jacksonville, one' пйку drive for' miles, thru county after county, and see very little more than ab. andpned farms and cut over land. The abandonment is largely due to the rise in real eatate у%\Ш, causing mi>st farmers to take more intareat in land -aelling than in; crop growing!. ' **ThM ft U that outfidf: of the fruit industry, Florida at present offers very little in com parison with North Carolina. That she has great possibilities, there is no douBtri>utT;Hef^rs littrcnpro- bability of agriculture developing ,extensively in the peninsular area within the next feW years. "Until the advancing boom hits the northern counties heavier, ag riculture will still remain a large factor there. Hamilton, Madison and Sumanwee counties are rapid ly growing important as tobacco counties. Melons, peanuts, pota toes and other similar crops may be grown to great advaptage from Lake City westward^ with prices of farm land reasonable in this area< "Of course the climate ia tern? perate, with occasional freeaes. Along the southeastern coast area; where resorts are most promin- ent, the agricultural industry is of minor importance and is rapid ly making way for resort purpos es, As a banaiia -bonanza, there is no hope, Cocoanuts would probably do well on the south ern end, from St, Lucie county southward, “It is difficult to compare agri culture in the two states, as both hnve their peculiar advantages, North Carolina has as great diver- sification as does the real agricul-. tural sections of Florida, She is nearer to markets and has her agriculture very much better de veloped. With the exception of a few North Carolina coastal counties, agriculture is moro or leas uniformly spread over the stnte. "There is not the discontent Hud roni estate speculative inter- ftrence that exists in Florida. We havo a much better immed’ato local -marketing opportunity es pecially in the summer time'. Our climate is not sufllciently se/ere to really offer a drawback. We can grow many field and gorden crops thruout the winter. With tho improved roads, the winter weather does not interfere with travel on the highways, so that farm people can get to and from t'-<wn with comparative ease, "Florida offers a wonderful di versification from north to south, but North Carolina offers nn c ¡ual vitrlation from oast to wesi to take care of many of tho attractive features in the sub-tropics. With out a doubt, our mountains are becoming a strong summer com petitor with Florida’s winter at tractions, “It was noticed that perhaps fewer North Carolina automobiles were in Florida than most, any other state. It was thought by many that the main reason for- <his was due to the content , liiat people in North Carolina have as a resistant to the reputed Florida lure. “Certainly those really familiar with the situation feel that the Page Seven- • stated that until these '/D M,’ ‘in ances were arranged the I?U,fâl‘i(l.\'<'V ,’A Intermediate Credit Bank has riijfsJ-''Oi 'i i way of telling how much the of the North Carolina Agiriciil* turnl Credit Corporation is worth.

The amount of such • delinquent is deducted from our capital and in that way each de linquent holds up an amount of now loans for ton times the a- mount of his loan. Mr, Fagan stated that more than 9-10 of the loans ^ade* i<t 1925 were paid or covered by equity in one of the cooperative associations. He stated that there were on an average $2,000 of dft- linquents in each bank and group, and that they should be easily ar^ ranged. He stated that he .conr sidered most of them good, but that they cannot be considered as such by the Intermediate Cre dit Bank until they are paid down to where tho equity in ono of, the Associations will cover the balr ance. Mr. Bell stated to the meeting that the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank would start discount ing the рарс'Г for the Credit Cor poration as soon as enough of tiiese’oid balances havo been art ranged so that they would know that the Credit Corporation ia absolutely solvent and how much their unimpaired capital stock, la. He was frank to say that, thia could be done in a few days^ If the representatives would p ut.: forth the proper effort to have these papers arranged. Mr. Fagiui then stated that thei line of dieV count allowed by the Intermediate Credit Bank could bo extended to the groups and banks that have cleared their old balances, Ilè stated that ho expected to have the 11|Пе of discount of near 000,000 on the present sapital, but that ns soon as they were.giveri a line of $1,000,000 this amount would go to the banks and group» that had no delinquents. He went further by eaying that the bank or group that -had many, deliur quents would not be allowed to discount any paper until thé moit of their old balances were clearv ed up. After almost every one had got ten a clear understanding of the old balances, the discussion of the new forms was then taken up". Almost every one commented on now far superior to those avail-! able in Florida." BANK MEETINGS AND CREDIT GROUPS (By Harry Fagan, in N, C.

One of t}ie objections to Government money has been met in the preparation of these ' papers, that is thnt the so-called “red tape” has been eliminated. The Credit Corporation expects to start receiving applications-by February 10th.

He stated that it might be possible that during their extreme rush periods that they would need as much as ten days on some of the papers, but that they expected always to get it' out in no more than that length of time.if' A A meeting of representatives from nil the banks and Credit Groups who have handled loans through the North Carolina Agri cultural Credit Corpoi’ation was called to be held in Raleigh on Januai-y 28, 1920, Between fifty and sixty banks and Credit Groups were represented. The meeting was presided over by Harry Fagan, president of the Credit Corporation. Mr. Fagan stated that there were several banks and Credit Groups handl ing money through the North Carolina Agricultural Credit Cor poration who havo borrowers who have not paid their loans and who have not pooled enough cotton or tobacco so that their equity will eventually pay their balances.

Sam ia a former Davie county boÿi «¡nd wo ¿are, glad- to h^ar For Young Boys and Mothers Wc nre all familiar with that story in Arabian Nights of the wonderful lamp, nnd the equally ■wonderful ring of Alladin. But the wonderful thinga.which Alladin did as possessor of thnt wonder ful lamp nnd thnt mnrveloua ring arc the creation of imnginntion recorded in n atory book. Theae nre entertnining nnd always ap peal to the imagination of the reader, although one reads with the knowledge that they nre creations of fnncy. But Editor Josephus; Dnniels relntes nn experience which he had last week in Jncksonvillo which is not only equally stnrtling, but tho story is nbout a real boy, n North Cnrolinn boy, nnd what that boy has actually accomplished. The story is one which is so likely to fire the imagination of young boys and encourage mothers who are working and sacrillcing for thei]r boys, that we are going to give this space for reproducing it, I believing that we could use it today for no bettor purpose. Here’s ' the story as told through the (editorial columns of the News & Ob server of a few days ago: "I had just gotten off the train, coming into the metropolis of Florida, when there stepped from the private car on the Seaboard track coming in from South Florida an alert and business-like young | man, who was met at the depot by his charming wife and happy young son. The boy was so overjoyed to greet the father, return ing home for the day, that he had eyes for nothing else. It was n picture good to look upon, this evidently prosperous young mnn and his IHtle family. I stopped to cast aglance at them as, uncons cious of all about them, they made way for their limousine standing in front of Jacksonville’s fine depot. “The sight of such happiness among perfect strangers always cheers a traveler far from home, and I started for my hotel feeling better for what I had observed. This is a happy old world, in spite of all the troubles and the lowering of standards in some circles. Aa I was about to enter a taxi, the young man I had observed, rath er casually, recognized me, stopped and said: " ‘How do you do, Mr. Daniels!’ "For the first time I then looked directly at the young man and the wife and bright-faced lad. It was Eugene C. Bagwell, a Raleigh man, who had stepped off his private car, for he is now superintendent ; of this division of the Seaboard Air Line Railway. His good-looking wife is from Raleigh, too—Miss Vera. Phillips before her marriage. "This is the gentleman,’' said Eugene, introducing me to his young son, ‘who gave me the first job I ever had as a boy. I was n carrier boy for Mr. Daniels’ paper. The News & Observer.’ "I do not -know what the boy thought, seeing his father wns superintendent of a great railway division and traveled in a private car, while the older man to whom he was introduced was trudging along on foot to a taxi. It looked more like young Bagwell could be giving mei a* job. " ‘ Let us take you to your hotel,’ said Mrs. Bagwell, after I had told them of my destination. "When their limousine had turned the corner and I had reached my room my mind traveled back something like a quarter of a cen tury, maybe a little more, when Eugene Bagwell was a carrier boy on The News and Observer, It proved that those who say the day has passed of opportunity for young men of real stuff are wrong. I have seen nothing in many months that gratified mé so much as to observe, the steady and deserved pràmotion that has come to Eugene Bagwell. It all came from demonstrated merit and efficiency. But I was not surprised. Never was a morning too cold or dreary when he was a boy for him to show up at- 'the' Old Reliable’ at 5 o’clock and'take the papers on his rou^. He was on time all the time and it was a rare thing if any complaint came from a subscrib er on hi» route. He was there with the goods as a boy. And that is why be is meetinit the emergency in the most'difficult period of railroading in thç histQ^ ^of Florida. The ^ r^^^ .has been bo great that embargoes V had tci' put - on ÎrélghtL and '.the ; congestion has tMed >p the utn^st ever]r. Wilr^^^^ A long step forward in the civic life of Mockaville nnd Davie county was tnken Saturday night when the Young Business Меп’й Club of Mocksville met in the dir rectors’ room of Southern Bank & Trust Company nnd voted unti- nimously to become actively af filiated with International Asso-. ciation of Lions Cliibs. The oc casion, marked by a serious and determined spii4t on the part of those present to contribute their highest service to the growth and development of the civic interests of Mocksville, was yet, not with out its frivolous side. Quite a number of visiting Lions from Winston-Salem, headed by Judge G, H. Hastings, District Gover nor of Lions International, came over and added much life and fun to the program with their Inter- spersions of stunts, songs and jokes. Short talks by Judge Hastings, Tracey Odom, Linville Martin and Tom Cash set out in gdnornl the principles of Lionism, ex- plnining the puriiose for which Lions Internntional wns formed nnd tho mnnner in which tho snme nro carried out.

The entire order was filled, at the River Rouge plant of the company within n period of approximately seven weeks. During the time that the Russian consignment was being produced, tractors for domestic absorption were also being manu factured, as usual. At approximately the same time as last ship laden with Fordsons clears port in thei United States, tho first of the tractors which were built on the latest order will have reached the Russian interior. Tho complete consignment will be delivered in time for the opening of spring tillage. Together with the tractors which had previous ly been ordered by the Soviet gov ernment this new order will in crease the number of Fordsons in use in Russia to approximately 20,000 units, all supplied within tho past three years. Practically the entire shipment was routed through New York t9 ports of Noyorossisl^and Odes.sa on the Black sea'for distribution.

Thursday, February 18, 1926 ______________________________ ^ Pâgè ThMë' 'THE MOCKSVILLE ENTERPRISE LUTHER BURBANK, INFIDEL According to associated press re ports, Mr. Burbank, wizard in hor ticulture, is, by his own confes sion, an “infidel in the true sense of the word.” He says, "1 do not believe what has been served me to believe; I am c doubter, a (luestioner, a skeptic. When it can be proved to me that thei'e is immortality, that there is resur rection beyond the gates of death, then will I believe., Until then, no.” Ho seem.s to be an unbeliev er of the unbelievers, and will not be convinced until scienóé, on which he appears to rely, leads him to the light. He thinks thiit there is some great power in the universe but he does not know what it is, or what to call it more than “power.” "It may be a con scious mind, nnd it may not.” He does not understiuid it, and cnn’ti for it is incomprehensible. Yet he seems to imply that this power, whntever it is, is back of the uni verse, and responsible for it. All religions, he thinks, must fail. None is perfect nor inspired; nnd the prophets of religion, not be ing wise mén, must be kept ^vith- in the bounds of common sense by science. He does not believe in any hereaftw, either for the good or the bad. A God that would send any body to hell is re pugnant to him; and science dis proves the possibility of Kfe aft er death. And besides, there would not be sufficient room in the universe for the perpetual preservation of human souls, and nil other living beings that have been here for their short span.” How childish such tnlkl Josusi, hei says, wns an infidel of his age because "he rebelled against the prevailing religion and govern ment.” He says that he loves Jesus and his works, and thinks that Jesus has been “outrageous ly belied.” One cannot but wonder if Bur bank hns ever tried to find out tho truth nbout the things thnt ho snya he does.not believe? There is a certain great .teacher that stands far in'advance of all tho world’s wisdom—and Mr, Bur bank pays thnt ho loves this teach er—who said, "If any man'will do his \yill, he shall know of the doctrine,” Has Mr, Burbank ov er tried this test? Ho is n'scien tist, nnd insists on proof for whnt he believes. All right, ; Christ says that ho may have.-it in the realm of religion as well ns in the realm of scioncei, "If any man will-do his will, he ■ shall- knowi”; Mr. Burbank has never, had in the scientific' world, n, better’ op- portounlty. to teat his knowledge by proof than he has horo. But he has not niado this test, or ho would not talk like he does. It is further surprising that one with Mr. Burbank’s remarkable mind woiild rest his unbelief in matters spiritual upon such sandy foundations. He does not believe, in the resurection, he says, be cause "science disproves reincar nation iind life after death.” It is true that science does know a great deal about life, and can do- a great deal with life; but science has not yet been able to pi'oduce life, nor even tell what lif& is. It knows a great deal about the ex pressions of life, and can do a great many things with these ex pressions in their various forms —Mr, Burbank has proved that in many instances—but when it com- . os to telling what life is in its essence science is completely baf fled; it does not know; If science can not tell what life is, how, then, can science knovv what life con tinues to do when it censes to be active here? This snmo great teacher said, “Except' a grain of corn fall into the.ground and dies, itVabideth alone.” If that grnin of corn, by dying, cnn pro duce its' perfect likeness i.u the full matured: corn, “why should . it be thought a thirig incredible” •, that the God-^Mr; Burbank would say “power”—who made’ the oorrii and fixed tíie laws of its repro'lluc,- tion, should bring back to life and to reincarnation ■ those whom he .crented in his ow'iv iinag;e and for his’ glory-• Mr. Burbank'will, not deny that the grain of corn must die in order to live again, and un til he cnn explain that he ought not doubt the resurrection,, ■ Another argument that hé mak es for his unbelief sepms nltogeth- er without support in fnct and in . reason. He refer.ito Christ as a ■wonderful psychorogist,. nnd pre sumably thinks that he wns a great .nnd^good mnn.. But Christ, he snys, “wns nn infidel of his dny because :h'e hebelled agninst the prevailing religion nnd . goverii-; ment.” The idea I There is hnrd- ly a Sunday school hoy or girJ to be found any where who does not know that Christ wns ,brought up in the Jewish church, by. . pious ,Je\^8h-'parents;:thf(t; he, became a membeivof the chiirch \vhen he was tvtrelve ye^rs ofi age; and that throughout his earthly life he was a strict observer of tho essentials ill the .lewiBh religion. It is true that he found it necessary to cor rect some of the erroneous teach ings of some of the religionists of his dny; and this he did un- hesitntingly and unsparingly. But ho is not nn “infidel” becnuse of thnt, nor untrue to his religion. And, as for the government of his day, his attitude nnd practice ■is summed up in his rebuffing answer, made to the Jews who sought to entrap him in hi'S talk: “Render unto Caesar the things thnt nro Caesar’s, and unto God ■the things that are God’s.” Further, he says, "I am in love with Christ as a man, and with his works.” "This ia a hard sny- ing; who can hear it?” If Jesus were only n man, (is Mr. Burbank claims, he was the biggest fraud and deceiver that the world has known, nnd not lovenble at nil. The iden of hell is repugnant to Mr. Burbnnk, and yet it is thought the teochings of Jesus that we know most about it. Still he says that he loves Jesus. How can this be Mr. Burbank says also that he is in love with the works of Jesus. What did Jesus say about his works? “If I do not the works of niy Father, be lieve me not. But if I do, though ye believe not me, BELIEVE THE WORK; that ye may know and be lieve that the Father is in mev and I in him. And again he says, "The work that I do in my Fath er’s name, THEY BEAR WIT- NESS OF MB.” The works of Jesus, he says, are his "Witness es” to his claims. And his claims nre that he is the Son of God, the God-Mnn, nnd that his mission in the world is to snve the world, nnd bring it back redeemed to God. How Mr. Burbnnk can love Jesus and his works, and still be nn infidel is difficult to under- stnnd. If .icsus is lovnble, then he must be every thing thnt he claimed to be. By the very na ture of tho case, this must be so; and if Mr, Burbnnk will cnrry his stntomont to its logical conclu sion, he must mnke this ndmis- sion. . In his sphere, Jlr. Burbank is h .very remnrknblo mnn, but when ho gets into tho sphere of tho spiritual, nnd talics his doubts about the.eternnl verities of God, he gets his feet on sandy founda tions, as doo.s every other ono who. tries to find justiflcntion for his infidelity to God nnd to his truth., , If all such men would try na hnrd to know the truth as they seem to' try- to justify their posi tion .in not believing, they would find the truth, nnd the truth would make them free.—S.

Ask for CoucríS April will soon be here, a month seething with memories and ro mance, for j'ou remember it was April 22, 1910, that one of the foremost Americans of all time fell on sleep. Mark Twain will, soon be dead these sixteen years and we are nil interested in April, ,for breathes there nn American with. inteJlect so dead thnt the ■nnme of Samuel' Lnnghorne Cle mens doth not stir deep down in him love and n feeling of rom ance? Mark Twnin’s life was replete with romance from the time he first made his debut in the little town of Florida, Missouri, No vember 30, 1835, until he died. He wns reared in a small coun try town in Missouri and was brought up in the usual,country style; barefooted, ragged; poor, and with a bountiful supply of freckles on his face. At the age of thirteen circumstances neces sitated his securing a job and making his own livelihood, there fore he stopped school and went into the printng isubfn , into the printing business. By printing business is meant he ap prenticed himself to a printer who owned a printing business and therefore became a "printers devil,” At the end of three years of this trade he considered himself a master printer, therefore, he said good-bye to his home town nnd hired himself forth to see the world. The world was New York City and after a few days he was exploring it nnd secured a job in a newspaper shop where he remained for upwards of a year. Later he> returned home to his mother nnd to lord it over the other town boys whom he hnd known. But nfter a time he be- cnme tired of this sort of life, so he looked nbout for nnother job. He found it on the Mississippi River, lenrning the pilot profes sion, something which hnd from the time of his babyhood lured him like a mngnet. Here on i;ho river he acquired poise and pomp, ho found thnt his slightest wish wns received as n commnn'd, thnt tho servants nnd subordinates ecrnped'nnd bowed to him; and thnt he wns nlwnys sired. Ac cording to Mnrk Twnin himaelf-j his cup was running over nnd he, had found his place in life, for nothiiig better could suit him thaii this, He wns treated as a Lord nndheloved.it.. However, the Civil Wnr came nlong by nnd by nnd thus did a-, wny with hi.*) profession and so he had to seek another job. He found one this time in nccompany- ing his brother across the conti nent, but in order to enjoy this honor he had to buy the stage coach tickets. He remained in the West for seven yenrs nnd while there did n little of.everything. First he wns private secretary to his brother but received no pay for his luxu- ■I'ious position so he went into the mining business. He failed to find hardly enough gold to pay his grocery bills so discontinued this trnde. Then he worked about from one thing to another until finally he got a job on a small newspaper. His duties of the paper were thnt of reporter and according to Mark himself he pr.pved such a prolific liar, that the paper soon promoted him to managing editor. From then on his success ns a writer wns mnrk- ed. He went to San Franciscp ‘and became star reporter for the largest paper in that town. After : having made himself famous with his pen he launched out into new fieUls. He Ayeht, on. the lecture platform ahd never failed to fetch down the, house with a bnng. The next thing >ve know- of Mark .Twain he is writ-, ing books which tho entire world clamored to read,: ; '; Then all ’ the large ■ educational institutions of the' United States begun conforrihg the- greatest honorary degrees thnt tliey hncl to' offer iipon him. Ho '^тоs hailed as the greatest humorist of all time,' arid iis such was expected to mnke the people laugh in all he said nnd 'wrote, ;So he^ had to somewhat neglect his talents ns a philosopher nnd'sage arid stoop to that of making the populnce I’oar in mirth. Nevertheless, America, has had ho .greater thinker nnd profound reasoner, thaii he, for he was equally as abstruse) in philosophy as in hu mor, in fact more so. , ' When he was well along in his sixties he had the misfortune to go broke, loosing practically nil the property he had aeq;uired ing many Igng years of hard labor. Then his wife died,'but Mark ’Twain, v(merable 'miih that he yvRBi bqckled ihimsiej^r doW^ to hard worn and before he died had paid every cent he owed. Then when Mark. Twain was nearing his seventieth birthday -he received a cable commanding him to come to Oxford, England,- and receive the degree of Doctor of Ijiterature. He sailed on the Minneapolis in com'pany with, his biographer. Prof. Archibnld Hen derson nnd President Patton, of the Princeton Theological Semi nary. During the four weelts he spent in England on this occas ion he was the guest'of his ma jesty, the King of England,, and all the elite in the British Empire. At last when the great event was at hand for which he had crossed the Atlantic, the encenia, the ceremony of conferring tho degrees, occurred at the Sheldon- ian Theatre, June 26, 1907, It was one of the greatest af fairs ever held in England. A- mong those who received dqgrees that morning besides Samuel Langhorne Clemens were: Prince Arthur, of Connaught: Prime Minister Campbell-Bannerman; Whitelaw Reid; Rudyard Kipling; Sidney Lee; Sidney Colvin; Lord Archbishop of Armagh ; Primate of Ireland; Sir Norman Lockyer; Auguste Rodin, the sculptor; Saint-Saëns, and Gen. William Booth, of the Salvation- Army, something more than thirty of the world’s distinguished men. A great soul arose as the und ergraduates and the rest of the bssemblage viewed the procession slowly fliing into the theatre, und er the leadership of Lord'Curzon, in all the glory of his robes' of office. But a hush fell over the audience, for Mark Twain, the one time bare-foot boy of Missouri, but now wrinkled and hoary, clad in his robe of scarlet and gray, hnd been summoned forwnrd to receive the highest academic hon ors which the world has to give. A veritable cyclone broke forth, the undergrncluntes went wild then. It seemed ns though it would be impossible to confer tho degree nt nil but finnlly, Chnncel- lor Curzon’ncidressed him in La tin, “Most nmible nnd chnrming sir, you shnke the sides of the whol'e world with your merri ment,” nnd tho great degree wns conferred. And thus we hnve tho charm ing and romatic story of how the ragged little country boy, father- ,less, and without money rose to the e.\nltod pedestal attained but by few, apparently ns it were, be coming n king nmong men. Tr.uly n story of romance!' -------------------- FEEDING PIGS PAŸS ASHE COUNTY FARMER ,. Jefl^erson, Feb. -17.—Fred M. Colvard of Ashe county haa found that the growing and feeding of pigs will.pay ns well in the moun- tnihs ns in the constnl plnin or piedmont section of North Cnro- linn. Mr. Colvnrd henrd,^ through County Agent E. C, Turner, of some of the profits being mnde in hog feeding by other fnrmers in the Stnte who hnd followed the methods ndvocnted by the office of swine’ extension nt State Col lege. He asked Mr. Turner the question, "If those fellows down there can make these profits, why can’t we do it in Ashe county?” The result was thnt he bought some brood sows nnd on Inst No vember first, started 80 pigs on feed. The market price for these pigs on November first, when they were eight weeks old, ■^yns about $6 ench or the nnimals were worth then in round numbers nbout ?500.00, Thè pigs were fed corn and fish meal in, the amounts recom mended and were _ weighed on February third, At thnt time they weighed 9,522 pounds \yhich, at ri vnlue of 13 1-2 cents per pound, the market price for hogs on the •Richmond market on Janiinry 29, would mean' a tptrtl’ return ’of $1,- 285.47.;. ^ '■ ' ■ The pjgs ,'weVe valiied at $500 \yhen tiiey were put on ;feed. The feed coiisumed from :: November first to February 2, nmouhted to a 'cost of $898.08, which gave n total cost Of $898.70; 'Tilia nmount deducted from ..$l,28i5,47„ ;\vhich wns' the value as pork on Febru ary 3, left-a iiet profit on the ven ture of $387.47., However, Mr.,;Colvnrd expects to continue feeding this lot until April first, when he will sell the- pigs as finished animals. When the pigs wOro placed on feed, there were three litters of 23 ani mals that were not quite old en ough to wean and these averaged only 54 pounds on February 2. 'Phis brought down Mr. Colvni’d’s average, but he has placed this lot in another feed lot and looks for some interesting results on April first.

"The light, sandy soils, and isome of the clay soils, have 'been shown by demonstrations t.o be deficient in magnesium," says E. Y. Floyd, extension tobacco spe- bialiSt. "This deficiency of mag nesium seriously , affects tho qua lity of the leaf and decreases tho yield per acre so that the result ing loss to the grower is niany times the cost of the magnesium."

Wherever there is combustion there must be a residue of ashes and gas. If combustion takes place in the body this residue of waste . material must be taken up ply the amount needed by the to bacco. This has also been borne out by a large number of repoat- ed experiments at the Tobacco Branch Station near Oxford. The best method of applying the magnesium limestone is to broadcast it at the rate, of 500 to 1000 pounds per acre on the soil after the flrst plowing.

Out of this number, tho law of averages Hvlll leave thirty-two percent of these boys as tiiose who will re main oh tho farms to furnish the tei'tizenship of ruraf North Caro lina and to become its leaders. "Therefore, it ia important thnt these young men should have some form of training that will fit them for becoming bettor farm ers arid will make their life work more profitable and secure," says Mr. Harrill. "We believe that such training is given by agricul tural club work as it is conducted hy the specialists and county agents of the Agricultural Eyten- sion Service.” ' Diirlng 1920, a special ofTort nvill be made by all extension workers to reacli as many young men as possible and to give them the opportunity to take advantage of tl^s training offered by club Work. To make possible the suc cess of this effort, extension work- fers should have the support of every person in North Carolina \vho is interested in the upbuild ing of the rural communities of the State. Mr. Harrill states that every farmer who fias a boy or feirl who should be receiving the advantages of club work, ought to glvè his cooperation and sup port to club work. Where there is a tenant boy or girl on the farm these should also be encouraged to join the agricultural clubs. “We are going to make an ef fort this year to have the largest enrollment of farm boys and girls inclub work that wc have ever ¡.had in the history of the State," ' feaya Mv.

One of the most important con- siderations for success is getting the proper kind of trees to set out. It has been so difficult in the past to secure good trees and ! growers have so often paid ex orbitant prices and received worthless trees, that the society hast arranged for, supplies of the very best stock at lowest possi ble prices consistent with quali ty. W. N. Roper, secr^ary of ton Transcript, has pemitted to appear in its columns infrequent admissions of the correctness of Virginia's version of the first per manent English^ settlement nt Jamestown. Oth'er New England newspapers have made similar ad missions, but they have been half hearted and unconvincing to their readers., But the campaign of education goes on, and somehow, sometime, New England vvill be icoriipolled to learn the truth. It was. serious enough in all conscience to have New England Further, .'iccordin.!?

Mr. Stono asserted that the Farmers union was instrumental in having tho six-month minimum term adopted, and stands ready to iissist in expansion of educational facilities, but only when, as he Avroto, the teachers prove that they are turning out a better citi zenship from the schools, trained in more the practical tilings of life, if not with as much “polish.” SOFT PORK HARDENED BY PROPER FEEDING 1^- a.'c;!;T.'.: New York Times aid ing and abetting'tho historical prevision that centers around Plymouth Rock.

Ann Arbor Times. At this late date,- rumors are being circulated regarding tho identy of America’s unknown soldier. Somebody seems to be îmaking an unofBcial effort to learn the name of the hero buri- ted with honor in Arlington, The rumors ought to be hushed, it is better that the identity re main forever a mystery, filled with, sentiment and reverence. It is better for every father or moth er to feel that his or her lost son may be resting among the other immortals of a nation. Some Individual was paid that high honor which he earned. But the honor was earned likewise by every other soldier who died de fending the Stars and Stripes. In effect, air of those heroes lié in that Arlington grave, because the human form that was lowered in to the hallowed ground was a symbol of American patriotism and sacrifice. The identity of the individual does not matter. It was intend ed to be a mystery. Human na ture is averse to mysteries, but hero is one that Americnns should defend, becnuse it is a mystery of national love.

It is marvelously adapted to the func tions which it has to, perform. Contact With the floor is made at the heel and the ball of the foot. The bones between thèse two points form an arch, and a line dropped down through the ccnter of gravity of the body intersects this arch in the mtddle. Also In the ball of the foot bétween the little toe and the big toe, the bon es form nnother arch,—the tran sverse arch. When walking and while the weight ia on-the bail of the foot this weight is borne on the ccnter of the transverse arch. These small bones making iip these two arches are connected Hvith one another by ligaments, and articulations nre provided with mascular attachments. •'It is a fent of engineering skill to build a solid bridge span that will hold the weight put upon it but in the foot there are two bridges—and they are flexible— which must hold, up and provide motion for as great a weight in proportion to the size of the bridg es as any solid bridge made by engineers. ' • Tho ends of theSe arches are prevented from ■ separating by strong bands—the plantar liga ments, but sometimes these bands become stretched and let the ends separate and the arch flattens down. This is flat-foot. Some times it is the main arch that flattens, sometimes it is the for ward transverse arch and some- tiines both of them give way. Some people have naturally high arches and some have naturally very low arches. It is very com mon for tho colored race to have practicnlly no arcïi nt nil. They nte naturally “ilatfootod."

Dr. G, W. ■Foster, head of the Department ■of Agricultural Economics at ■State College, has spént some time ■in Washington this past month ¡studying the crop outlook for the lentire country aild he ha#, sum- Imarizèd for the Agricultural Ex- Itension SérVicé the OutlOok for Ithis State. I In thè main, his summary shows lihat growers of early Irish pota- Itoes should receive good prices if Ithe crop ■ can be placed on the I market about June first. After I thnt date th'e.; crop will compete I with shipments froih other Stntes land the price 'will drop. Before that time, the early - shipments from some of .the other southern stntes wil compete. ; For cotton,’ the-outlook is for lower prices thnn Inst yenr. For two sensons, production hns e.x- ! cceded consumption, there hns been a less foreign demand, fin ancial conditions in the South are favorable for expansion in grow ing the crop this season and pro duction will likely be as large this year as last. • Weevil damage is uncertain, however, and likely to be heavy. With tobacco, the general tiend appears to be for lower prices this year, blit the outlook for cigar ette tobacco is encouraging, de pending on the further growth of the cigarette Industry. A re latively large acreage to tobacco as compared to cotton will be ad visable this year by those farm ers who can produce good cigar ette tobacco. This would , not. af'- fect tobacco but would help the cotton situation. The sweet potato acreage should not be'increased because the good prices of the last two yenrs were due to low yields rath er than to an increase in demand. With poultry and eggs. It np- penrs that prices will be better durinsrthe Intter half of the yenr..| For this reason, the flock should ' be culled during the first part of the year, and the be.st producers kept. Stocks of poultry and egpa nro lower than usual nnd this will stimulnto prices Inter. The outlook for swine growing is good, nnd indicntions nre now that hogs will sell for good prices this year. The supply of hogs nnd ment.stocks are low. The outlook for the dairy in dustry is good. Tliei'e nre fewer cows nnd heifers on the farms, feedatuffs are relatively cheap and there is an up^yard trend in the use of dairy products. With peanuts, the outlook is un certain because there nre large stocks in China waiting shipment to this country. If conditions in thnt country clear up, sKipments will be equal to those of 1925 and the price will be beaten down. The acreage, therefore, should be maintained, especially for the Spanish and Runner varieties. If the farmer has no satisfactory substitute crop, peanuts of these two types may be increased slight- ly..

The mule, the most despised of beasts Has a persistent way Of letting folks know he’s around By his insistent bray. The busy little bee they buzz, Bulls bellow and cows moo. The watchdogs bark, the ganders quack. And doves and pigeons coo. The peacock spreads his tail and squawks. Pigs squeal, and robins sing. And even serpents know enough To hiss before they sting.

B. Sno\v' during the closing hours of the last term of Superior Cbiirt, the lawyers of the county met last Saturday after noon in the oflke of W. M. Sea ford, Clerk, and resolved to form a county bar association. The meeting lasted but a few minutes, adjourning quickly to ?e- corivene Thursday morning, at which time it is proposed to adopt a definite set of regulations pre scribing rules for the management and conduct of the as.40clati0n. Terhporary organization included E. L. paither, Dean, Robert S. McNeili, Secretary, and A. T. Grant, Jr., Jacob SteWart and Robert S. McNeill, committee to draft suitable rules and régula tions. Among other objects It will be the purpose of the Association, well in advance of the terms, to arrange a calendar for the trial of civil cases, in order that the Court, counsel, litigants and wit nesses may be informed ahead of time just when rf particular case will be called. This action on the part of the lawyers of thé county to "get to-“ gether” has a 'deeper significance than casual obseryations might Indicate. In addition to the bene- flcial effects it will have on the fortunes of-the folks In general, it reflects a further happy situ- tlon, in that It suggests a disposi tion on the part of our public leaders to co-operate with One anothèr, to the end that the ad ministration of law in Davie county may be sy.'itematized and regulated as in other counties throughout the State. It will be interesting to note the Increasing flow of benefit» that' will result from this latest move on the part of o^r lawyers. UNION CHAPEL NEWS .'

But in 1830 when the Constitution was .adopted the name by which it is now kiiown was selected. The church called itself “Methodist” because it did not wish to separate itself from that community. Some have thought the w;ord , “Protestant” was added to voice thè jprotest against the' evils in Church gov ernment then existing in Metho dism. But this is an error. Dr. I'rancis WaterSj theologian and .scholar of/the first rank among tho reformers of those days, pro posed the liame'^in order that our second and larger alliance with the Protestant world might be set forth. The Methodist Protestant chur- cli, instituted in 1828, and or.nca- nizcd under its present title in 1830, traces its origin through the Methodist Episcopal church, back to that Evangelical Reforma tion begun in England by John and CJharios Wesley, of Oxford University 'and Presbyters of the church of Englond. ■ Rise of Methodism The rise of Methodism is des cribed by Mr. John Wesley as fol lows: “In 1729,, two young men reading the Bible, saw they could not bo saved without holiness, followed after it, and incited oth ers so to do. In 1737, they saw holiness comes by faith. They aaw likewise that men are justifi ed before they, are sanctified ; but still holiness was their point. God then thrust theni , out, utterly sigainst their will, to rise a holy people. In the latter end of the year 1739, eight'or ten persons came to me in London, who appeared to be deeply convinced of si.n,,and «arnestly, groaning for redemp tion. They dèsirèd (as did two or tiiree moré thè iiext day) that I would spend’, s.ò'm'c time, with them in prayer; and advise them how to fieé ,fròlli the „wrath to come, which they saw continually lianging over their heads.

And’ we judge, it best that they should stand, fast in that liberty where with God has so strangely set them free.” The letter containing this per mission was sent over by Doctor Thomas Coke, he and Francis As- biiry being designated Joint Sup- rintendents over the work in merlca. siuished methbers oif ; the Cdrifcr- ence, and others, from : different pai^s ¿ f !théÿ coiintry, to : cons whetheif it were;àdvlsable to tlhue efforts for. reforin.'

These were called Union Sbcleties, and their whole object was, 86 to unite the Re formers as. to present to tho next General Conference a petition which would bhviate the objec tion made against the appeals to the Conferenme of 1824 ;' that they were so various and conflicting in their aims, it was impossible to discover what they wanted, who wanted them. * In Noveinber, 1827, a General Convention was held in Baltimore, composed of one hundred delegat es 'representing Reformers in sev-; en States, by whom a Memorial was prepared to be presented to the ensuing General Conference, prayingfor the admission of lay men into the legislative councils of the church. - . The General Conference, aftir deliberating three whole weeks in committee upon the Memorial, hot only.de^ied the necessity or jus-, Accordingly, on Dr. Coke’s ar- -ticé of thé chahgè nroposéd, but; 'rival,'a 'conference of the travel ing preachers was called to meet in Baltimore, Ma^land, in De cember, 1784. About'sixty were present, who' proceeded to, orga nize an independent church under the title, of “The Methodist Epis- copal'church,” and' to elect Tho- ihfls Cbke and Francis Asbury Bishops. . The church thus organized was peculiar in several respects, but its most remarkable feature was that the unlimited exercise of the legislative, evecutive and judical powers of the church were vest ed by these traveling preachers in them!}elve.s and their succes sors, to tho entire exclusion of all tho members of tho church, no provision being made for any lay- mon to vote as such and directly upon any question in any church meeting. This fact explains tho origin of .the Methodist Protestant chur ch, and fixes its date as well. For, although some forty years inter vened before the Methodist Pro testant church emerged into his torical, fact, yet, Methodists be gan to protest against the kind of government established in 1748 almost before the Conference ad journed, and the protest gathered volume and intensity with every succeeding Conference. In ten years it resulted in a secession on the question of. giving preach ers an appeal from the stationing authority. In twenty years.’ it, produced a delegated General Conference with restrictioiis upon the legislative power and in thirty six years it grew into ah overwhel ming, although inclïective, ma jority of the General Conference in favor pf electing presiding eld ers by the annual conferences. ;Tho particular protest made by those who finally organized the Methodist Protestant church, was aimed at the feature of the gov ernment which was regarded as the real cause of all the diasatis- factioli among Methodists, viz., the exclusion of laymen from the councils of the church, and with holding from them the right of sùiïràge. : 'After years of desultory dis cussion of this point, Willi«ni S. Stockton, a layman, of Philadei-. phia. Pa., began in 1821 the publi cation of a periodical called the ‘‘Wesleyan Repository”, which was intended to provide a medium for the more formal examination emended the. claim for. the ' ex-' cliisive right of minlsters4o legis late for the church beyond what- had ever been attempted before: “The great Head of the church himself has imposed on us the duty of preaching the Gospel ; of i» admiiiiisterlng its ordinances, and of maintaining its moral dis cipline among those over, whom the Holy Ghost in these respects has made us overseers. Of these also, namely, of Gospel doctrines, ordinances, and moral discipline, wo do believe that the divinely in stituted, ministry are tho divine ly authorized oxpo'Undors; and that the duty of maintaining them in their purity, and of not per mitting our ministrations in these respects to be authorit.-itively controlled by others, does rest up on us with the force of a moral Obligation.” Tiio resources of pcaceabie re form would thus seem to have been exhausted : but it is probable , that the protestaiits would have i prominent; and: ■dëÿ,oteâ;iilâÿnieh;^^^^^ men who lived l'blameiéss and* pilous lives and against Whom no charge of hersey or;iminorttl con duct could be brought, weire ex^: communicated ..because they read and recommended to their friends a reiigious newspaper^ in witose columns it was argUed that lay- tnen ought to be admitted into th* councils of the church. , The immediate ' effect of ¡these; expulsions was to convince Re formers that there was no hope of obtaining any change in thé government, and they began to withdraw in considerable numb ers in various parts of the coun try, both as a mark of their sym pathy with their persecuted bre thren, and as their final protest against a power that struck but would not hear. A_s for the expelled, and their friendsi nothing remained but to form a new church. They'were Methodists, and the only Metho dist church in existence had,cast them out. They had no controv ersy with Methodism, for its doc trines and spirit and experience were their joy and their crown. But becauso they did not believe it was necessary for the lovely and free spirit of Méthodlem to be cast in the mold of absolutism, and becatise they could not con sent to the suppression.of free speech in behalf of free suffrage, they Sorrowfully took up the task of organizing a new church, which should hold fast to all the distinc tive, features of Methodism and at the same time ally it to all the great heritage which .Protestan tism had bequeathed to the world; which, two Ideas they sought to express in its name. Reformers througrhout the coun try were invited to send delegates to a convention to meet In Balti more, November 12th, 1828. 'This convention effected a provisional organization under the title of “The Associated Methodist chur ches,” adopted Articles of Asso ciation covering the main features of a church to serve until a Con stitution could be matured, and called another convention to meet in 1830. ■ Meanwhile local churches were gathered, and annual conferences organized; and wlien the General Cohferenee met in St. John's church, Baltimore, Maryland, No vember 2nd, 1830, fourteen An nual Conforoncos were represent ed by one hundred and fourteen delegates.

Set free from the past, albeit by the stern mandate of an angry authority, they were now disentangled from the American as well as the English hierarchy, arid at liberty to recur to the ad vice of' Mr. Wesley, which the Conference of 1784 had strange ly ignored, and “simply to follow the Scriptures and the primitive ehurch” in laying tho foundations of the new eccleslasticism.

He claims that the committc(i is hand-picked, but doesn’t say out loud who did the picking, and characterizes the vvhicii affair as ‘the last pitiable performance of an unrepresenta tive and incompetent party ma chine.’ > ' "Nov, that part which refers.to it as 'the last perfòrihàrice’ is in teresting.

TIME TO PREPARE FOR SPRING WORK 'Raleigh; Feb. 24.— Heavy «pring work will soon begin on -the farms of North Carolina, ^erefore any preparations made now will, lighten the burden later so. It’s a very good idea to see that the plows are ih shape, that iho points aro sharp and all bolts are tightened, states D. S. Weav- ■ er, agricultural engineer at State College. Mr. Weayer states that 'Where the disk plbw is to be us- , -«d, the disk bearings need to be cleaned out, the grit washed out and new cup grease put in. "Then, too, if we are to make ■ aome needed additions to the fai-m buildings, it is a good idea to i?et plans for these buildings as early as possible,” says Mr. Weav- er. “This is a better plan than , to wait until we are ready to be gin construction. By having a . cet of plans, costly mistakes can '' l>e avoided and last minute chang- . « i made unnecessary. Sometimes ;'l»tter prices for materials can be secured by buying slowly in ad vance and not on the moment, pressed for time.” Another important maUer is to , clean up about the farm home. Mr. Weaver states that at the end of winter there is an accumula- “tion of trash in and about the average farm yard. At odd tim es, this may bo cleared away and plans made for beautifying the .yard. . This results in making the <arm home a more pleasant place in which to live and gives the owner .a pride in owning a neat : appearing place. 'coriipeterits’ of the party. Very naturally, both of those expres- sloHs would apply, in Mr. Butler’s opinion, to Mr. Butler. “But, the fact that Butler re fers to it as the ‘last’ performance shows very clearly that he is pre paring to assail the present party organization. The meaning of it is that the convention will in all probability be a lively affair.” Verily the democracy of North Carolina need not fear defeat as long a.s Marion Butler keeps poking at the state G. 0. P. MODERN CHICK MUST BE HATCHED EARLY TO RING CASH REGISTER The early' bird gets the worm, and the fi^ e r who hatches his chicks early is iayirig the founda tion for profitable egg production next winter, according to the Lar- rowe Institute of Animal Econo mics. November now< brings highest prices for eggs instead of January as in foi-mer years, and progressive farmers are find ing that it pays to advance hatch ing formerly done in May and June to P’ebruary and March. While winter is normally the season of dormant reproduction in poultry, the farmer who applies the few basic principles of poul try culture will And that he is able to get satisfactory produc tion from his flock during 1:he cold months, the Institute states. The use of good blood is thé first pre requisite; early hatching is im portant; third, there must be con stant growth from the time the pullet pops out of the egg until she lays one, and plentiful feed ing of egg-making food during the laying. Especially important is the matter of proper feeding, for without the right kind and quan tities of feed the other factors will be of little avail. The advantages of‘early hatch ing are enumerated by the Insti tute as follows: Early hatched chicks are less susceptible to the common poultry diseases, make a good normal growth during spring and summer and come into laying condition when eggs are in ex cellent demand at a satisfactory price. Under average brooding and rearing conditions, chicks with an early start make a much better growth and attain a larger size and development than do late hatched chicks. Another advan tage of early hatching chicks is that the surplus cockerels can be Chapel Hill, Feb. 23.—‘‘North Carolina is probably headed into farm tenantry more rapidly than any other state in the union. Such ia the conclusion one must draw from a close study of the 1926 farm census data which have re cently been released,” according to an article in the current numb er of the University’News Letter. ‘‘In 1920 there were 117,459 'farms operated by tenants in North Carolina. In 1925 there were 131,867, or a five year in crease in all farms was 18,729, which means that the increases in the number of farms operated by tenants was larger than the net gain in all farms. Only two stat es in the Union experienced larg er increases in farms during the last five years, and probably no state had anywhere like as large an increase in farms operated by tenants. ‘‘In 1920 the farms operated by tenants were 43.5 per cent of all farms in the state. The farm ten ant ratio in 1925 was 46.5 per cent* a ratio increase of three per cant in just five-years. This is a sig nificant gain considering the en ormous number of farms in the state. . ‘‘Dare county, an exceptionairy unimportant county in agriculture with only 7.6 per cent of her farms operated by tenants, has the lowest farm tenant rate in the state. Edgecombe county has ra pidly been heading into tenancy during the recent years and now ha^! the highest farm tenant rate in the state. Of all farms in the country 88.3 per cent are operat ed by tenants.” How does this one account for the fact that Niorth Carolina leads all states in increased numbers of farms operated by tenants dur ing the last five years? The fol lowing three reasons are perhaps the man explanations, the writer points out. ‘‘First, the depression. During the prosperous war period imme diately preceding 1920 thousands of farmers mainly former teiianlB, made first payments on high-pric ed cotton-tobacco land. When the slump came these would-be farm owners found it unwise or impossible to hold the land. The land reverted to the original own ers, and the would-be purchasers reverted to their former tenant status. “A second reason is that both cotton and tobacco are ideal ten ant crops, and Noith Carolina is DAIRV'.COWe IN LINA SHOW LAROB tó tm A S É I^ MiHer/of WlnsìoniSaleni^ Mr.! The Charlotte Observer.. It is not simply an occasion for North Carolina to take oflF its hat to Senator Simmons. The Unit ed States could afford to uncover before him, because he is the man who won'tho fight for reduction in National taxes. There are none who can deny that fact and we believe the country is in mood to give willing acknowledgement. The Observer would not give praise to the North Carolina Sen ator solely because he is a pro duct of this State nnd a Demo crat. Slate pride is strong, but it is Simmons’ rise to dominating influence In the National law body that is the point of emphasis. He was chairman of the Finance Committee during the Administra tion of Mr. Wilson and in that capacity developed an under standing of tax aifairs that es tablished him in the confidence of his associates on both aides of the Senate. He has. remained a doniin.tting influence in tho Sen ate committee and that has been demonstrated in the fact that he played a stronger hand in formu lation of the revenue reduction bill this term, than he played in shaping the same measure at tho last session of Congress. It was Senator Simmons’ determination to relieve the tax-payers of the country of the fullest burden of estate taxes. He did not get tho whole loaf, but he got tho tradi tional half, with very good pros pect that the other half will come along later. Included in the Simmons. list of gainings is the saving of the Duke benievolences from what would have amounted to gove'rn-, mental confiscation. It is a long list in public benefits that Sim mons accomplished by reason of his determined stand and his pre-. sentation of situations in indis puted array. It has been not on ly a big day for Simmons in the Senate, but a big day for the tax payers of the Nation. The news))apers of North Caro lina and of other States'have op portunity to discuss Mr. Simmons in the light of one who has achi eved distinction by reason of ser vices of National importance. He had the -niisistanco of able asso ciates, but there was a strong combination of circumstances to overcome, and it i« another dis tinct credit that Simmons and his supporters were able to strike a compromise that embodied the major benefits they had claimed, nnd ,thnt will in all probability prove of acceptance by the Pre sident and his advisers. And t^iis is*as much as saying that the outcome of the Simmons fight for reduced taxes was accomplish ment of a character the Adminis tration w'as not able to bring about with its own political re sources. The Nation will have a revised tax which was shaped and forced by the minority party in a Republican Congress. The con crete result is a reduction in the people’s tax burden of $881,000,- 000 during the first year of the operation of the revised bill, and subsequent tax reduction of $343,- 000,000, with-prospect of ultimate relief from excessive income tax es and no inheritance tax at all. Senator Simmons, active lead er in the tax reduction schedule, has paved the way to progressive return to normal in tax levies, 68 Bertie the concessions secured from the '' opposition being of a nature to facilitate this eventuality. One fine prospect growing from Siin- mons’ fight for lower taxes is the advancing of this country but of a condition of taxation on a war basis. The retroactive cut 'in taxes is a long step in that direc tion. Best of all is the developed fact that the reduction forced from the House can be given the people without danger of impair- FROM 1920 TO IM S In the following tablé coun ties are ranked accdrdlrig'ito per cent increase or decrease in dairy cows from 1920 to 1^26.
