Instead of Senator, elect New­ berry being placed in the position of defendant in the Michigan elect- ion investigation, it begins to look as if Mr. Ford himself would oecu py that role W ithout waiting for. the inquiry by the Senate commit tee to start, Mr. Newberry has formulated specific charges against the conduct of the campaign in be half of Ford, which is described as “ the most elaborate, pretentious and expensive in the history of the State.” The cost of printing one pamphlet alone is placed at $75, 000, and the postage in mailing it to the voters of the State, at from $10,000 to $15,000. It is charged that in some precincts Ford work­ ers insisted on voting men who were not registered or whose citi zenship was in doubt. Postmast ers and mail carriers, it is alleged, were impressed iuto the work foi the election of Ford, and every agency in the State for the sale ol Ford automobiles was nsed as a headquarters tor its chief. Foro workers 'swarmed about almost ev ery voting booth, particularly in the city of Detroit, with literature, cardsiand banners. “ It can be demonstrated,” declares Mr. New­ berry, “ that the major portion ol the political activity and expendi ture of money on the election was done on behalf of Mr. Ford.” It is evident that the Newberry counter attack caught Mr. Ford in a tender spot. No sooner was it made public than the men who pnll the strings that galvanize Ed- sel’s father into action gave foith a statement in his defense. “ N>- money or other thing ot value," say they “ was expended by Mr. Ford either in primary or election’, and no moneys were expended in his behalf in the primary. The expenditures made in the election were made by the non-partizan Ford for Senator committee and by the Democratic State ceutral com. mittee, both of which committees have reported in utmost detail, un der the oaths of their respective treasurers, their expenditures, which were all lawful disburse­ ments.'’ It took a lot of nerve to deliber­ ately assert that no moneys were expended in behalf of Mr. Ford at the primary, and the Ford adher ents.will have an opportunity to prove that statement in the not distant future. By the way. how about that $50,000,000 contract for Eagle boats presented to friend Ford by the President out of his personal emergency fnnd of $100,000,000? That little item should not be ov­ erlooked in computing the cost of the Ford campaign. It provided immediate work for thousands ot men atibigb wages without a cent of expense to Ford, and undoubt edly brought him a large number of votes. Has Had Stomach Trouble For Seven Years. Theodore Sanford of Fenmore, Mich., has had stomach trouble for seven years and could not eat vegetables or fruit with­ out pain in the stomach and restless nights. By taking Chamberlain’s Tablets he is now able to eat vegetaqles or fruit without causing pain or sleeplessness. It troubled with indigestion or constipation give these tablets a trial. They are cer­ tain to prove beneficial. Rnshiug To The Grave. Everything hurries in New York including-t’ne undertakers. If the mourners will consent to the vehi­ cle at a trot on the way to the tam etery, the charge is about half of that for a walking funeral.— Emporian Gazette. A Timely Suggestion. The next time you have a cough orcold t r y Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, it is pleasant to take and you are -ure to be pleased with the relief which it affords. !This remedy has a wide reputation for its cures of coughs and colds. ' Yes, Save The Boys. One of the chief arguments for prohibition has been that it saves the bovs. By the same token to­ bacco ought to have the attention of the law makers. There are ten thousand boys in the United States smoking cigar­ ettes where there is one who drinks whiskey.—The Beauford News. The above is true. This is a strange government, anyway. During the war. it is said the ship builders must have their liquor so they would work satisfied. Why would not that apply to farmers and others! Then the soldier noys must have their cigarettes. Then go around crying “ save- the boys!" The Knights of Golnmbns brag on what they gave the soldiers in July, August and September. More than half of the whole sum expended went for cigarettes alone and more than $150,000 more went for tobacco, pipes and playing carde. Here are some of the items: Total amount expended, $2,322 - 559 88; cigarettes, 400,000,000, $1,312,500.00; chewing tobacco, $5S,080 00; cigars, 825,000, $42- 300.00; pipes, 2,000.000. $34,027. 60; playing cards, 64.368 decks, •35.011 56; smoking tobacco, $17, 128 57; total expended for forego iug items, $1,468,047.73; total ex pended for other purposes, $853.- 512.15. If the $30,000,000 and more which they received out of the joint drive later in the fall was ex pended in the same manner, about $17,000,000 was spent for cigaret- res and about $19,000,000 for. cig­ arettes, tobacco, pipes and playing cards. W hat do the Christian mothers ot America think of the gang that fed their boyB overseas 400,000,000 oigareites in three months! That was about half a dozen a day to each soldier. The $17,000,000 which they probably spent for cigarettes out ot the joiDt drive would buy at the same rate more than five billions of cigarettes, which would be 2.500 to each sol­ dier. Physicians declare that ci garettes destroy both the strength and character of boys and young men.—Hickory Mercury. Why Colds Are Dangerous. You are often told to “beware of a cold,” but why? We will tell you: Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers the vitali­ ty and paves the way for the more ser­ ious diseases. People who contract pneumonia first take cold. The longer a cold hangs on,, the greater the danger, es- necially from the germ diseases, as a cold prepares the system for the reception and development of the germs of consumption diptheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. The quicker you get rid of your cold, the less the danger of contracting one of these diseases. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a great reputation as a cure for colds and can be depended on. It is pleasant to take. Look Out For Higher Taxes. The legislature is at its old tricks again, spending the people’s mgn. ey with reckless prodigality They are going to assess your prop­ erty higher this year and probably raise the tax too. The job they have on their hands is to speud all this money. Iu order to do this they are increasing salaries. It is proposed to increase the salaries of judges fully 25 per cent. The Democrats are great on piling . up taxes, and they are postmasters when it. comes to spending it.—Mt. Airy Leader. Colds Cause Grip and Influenza LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE Tablets remove the cause.

Promptly at 10 o’clock Tuesdaj Attorney Generel John B. BowmaD with a force ot deputy sheriffs re paired to the Sumner Gounty jail and there, in the presence of some thirty or forty souls, destroyed and poured out in the gutter seven an to loads of whiskey. The liquor destroyed, which had been eaptur ed from time to time from blockade runners, was valued at $20,000. GoDStaBle JameB Patterson of Gal­ latin was the chief officiant in de­ struction of the iiquor and though he suffered greatly iu the flesh, stuck to his task wilh Spartao bravery until the IaBt bottle had been broken. Among the on lookers at the sad scene were Capt. C. S. Douglass. Judge R. E. Saunders, Judge ’ W L. Cook, W T. Walker, Mayor H A. Holder, Justice L. G. Guild, Dr. L. T. Lewis and some more equally prominent. Others with less hardihood, remained up town and stood sorrowlully around on the public square. Destroying so much liquor was a big task and lasted until far into the afternoon. It was a field day for General Bowman. He had more fun yes terday than he has had since as a hoy he went to Baruam’s circus ov er at Waverly some 45 or 50 years ago, nursing a stumped toe, eating Humphrey County peanuts aud drinking red lemonade. As a cli­ max to the day’s event he added insult to injury by searching the overcoat pockets of each of the dis­ tinguished on-lookeiB at the jail I as they departed througn the gate. Ha showed no respect for dignity aud old age, so Captain Douglass and*Judge Cook‘had tosubn?it' rto' search along with all the rest.

MooresvIlIe Happenings Always Interest Our Readers. After reading of so many people in our town who have been cured .by Doan’s Kidney Pills, the question natnrally arises: "Is this medicine equally success­ ful in our neighboring towns?” The gen­ erous statement of this MooresviIle resi­ dent leaves no room for doubt on this point. R. W. McKay, retired farmer. N. Main St., Mooresville, N. C., says: “I had back­ ache and was nearly down with lumbago. Sharp pains often caught me across my kidneys when I bent over and I could hardly straighten. Doan's Kidney Pills relieved the pains in niy back and I could get around without any trouble. I keep Doan's on hand and take a few doses whenever my kidneys or back bother me." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. McKey had.

The remarkable experience of Y. M. Hall, a wealthy farmer living just out of Adrian, Georgia, is an­ other striking evidence of the extra­ ordinary merits of Tanlac. In speak • ing of his two years of suffering and subsequent relief, Mr. Hall said: ‘‘I am proud to say that I have gained fourteen pounds in two weeks taking this Tanlac. “ My trouble had been growing worse instead of better ali the time,” he continued. ‘‘It was almost im­ possible for me to lay on mv leftside on account of the terrible rheumatic pains. I began to lose weight and had fallen off until I only weighed one hundred and thirty-eight pounds away below my average weight and could not find‘any thing to relive my pain or build me up. “After I had suffered for more than two years without getting any better someone recommended Tanlac to me find ! started taking it. As I have said before. I gained fourteen pounds in weight and I haven’t felt a sign of the old rheumatic trouble since. Ihavetakenonlyfourbottles of Tanlac so far, but from the way I have improved already. I am glad to recommend it to everybody.” “Tanlac is sold in Mocksville, by Crawford’s Drug Co., in Cooleemee by the Cooleemee Drug Go., and by all good druggists ” ADVERT! -EMENT W ith «.*: the iosii'B Iianku- ’.t fay, all ip.i -ioine “Homeward bound— it’s a Wonderful Sound/’ Homeward Bound!

S.” What Editor Rutledge,Thinks. Secretary of War Baker says the thing for everybody to do is to go to work. We know a lot of fellows be ing held in cantonments who would welcome a job if they could find any way of getting a release from the army. Speaking against anarchists, Vice- President Marshall declares that America “is not an international boarding house. We felt that was true when Theodore Roosevelt said the same thing in the same words months ago. Secretaries Baker and Daniels say they see no danger in bolshevism in America. These same two far sight­ ed gentlemen did not see any dan­ ger of war in this country until Woodrow was safely landed in the president’s chair again. If the Administration can keep control of the railroads until after the coming Presidential election it probably won’t care what becomes of them after that. With some 2,- 000,000 employees scattered thruout the country they will be a valuable annex to the Democratic campaign. the most they could do was to burn some old wood, while hundreds of other cords of wood rotted in the woods. “TV.

There was a box supper at the school building Friday night the 21st, something over $30.00 was made. It must be that our basket-ball team are not in good practice, as Mocksville and Clemmons have lioth won in games played with them the past week, boys that's tou bad. Mr. Frank Walker has purchased a Buick car, hope some of our other people who h-ive no other ways of travel but walking, may be fortunate enough to own one some day. Rev. BaKard was a visitor in our town Friday. Several letters from Farmington boys, in France have been received recently, we are glad to see that the 30th Division comes in March, hope the boys may have a safe voyage and reach home well. News has reached the parents of the runaway boys,—Hugh Bruck and Clarence James, they are at Thomasvilie working in a chair factory, we wish them success. SpearHarding has returned to camp alter two week's visit with home folks Miss Norma Furches entertained a number of friends and school mates at a birthday party Friday night, the 28th of Fob, and the hard rain swelled the wa­ ters of the creek so that they all had-to spend the night, so there was a sleepy crowd of girls and boys next day. They had a delightful time playing games and dancing until morning when they could cross the stream and go to their homes. What is Farmingtdn going to do to cele­ brate the arrival of the noble heroes from France? We certainly should honor them enough, to make their home-coining es­ pecially pleasant for them some way. SO LONG. “TV. S. S.” 30th To Return This Month. Washington, ,Marcn '2—While it has been announced that the 30th division is preparing to sail for home and is scheduled to leave France during March, the war department announces the various organizations in the division which hive been as­ signed to'eariy convoy. Assignment to early convoy ordinarily means that departure will be taken within a week or 10 days at most. It is planned to send the entire di­ vision home at one time. “TV. S. S.” Letter From Germany. Lohndorf, Germany, Feb. 3, 1919, Dear Father and Mother:- thought I would'write you a few lines tonight before I go to the box­ ing match which we have at the Y. M. C. A. I am well and enjoying life as well as anyone conld expect to be so far from home, where I can not see anyone but dutch or rather Germans and soldiers. I am staying in a house with an old German man, they are very good to us, they see that they have to be is the reason. Well, Papa I got a pass the other day and went to Coblenz, a town on the Rhine river which is one of Ger­ many's largest towns, I also went to a town over the mountains which is a verv nice town but the name have forgotten, well it has been very cold here for the past few days with some snow. The climate here is very mucn like it is in N. C . or a little colder. The winter season is very wet, it rains or snows every other day, which makes it verv disagree­ able. When it is not raining it is cloudy and damp, we do not get to see the sun very often. The people live very different to what they do there. The farmers here all live, in towns and their houses and barns are all built to­ gether, you go in one door you will find the family; in the next door you will find the horses or cows and the next you will find the hogs or goats.

It is becoming more and more of a real necessity to you—both in your business and home life. For that very reason you need good tires, now, more than ever. The out-and-out dependability that created so tremendous a demand,for United States Tires in times of war is just as desirable today. It reduces tire troubles to the vanishing point— multiplying the usefulness of your car and putting the cost of operation on a real thrift basis. United States ‘Nobby’, ‘Chain’, *Usco’,and ‘Plain’ are the most popular fabric tires built. They have all the strength and stamina our years of experience have taught us to put into tires. There is also the United States ‘Royal Cord’, the finest built for passenger car use. Our nearest Sales and Service Depot dealer has exactly the treads you need for your car and the roads you travel.

MANY BILLS DODMEO TO FAIL No Matter of Sufficient Importance to Require the Calling .of an Extra Session Expected to Arise. Washington.—The sixty-fifth con­ gress entered upon its last full work­ ing day, facing an unprecedented mass of legislation, but with the contested "Victory loan” bill out of the way. The senate remained in session all night to pass the loan bill, the key­ stone measure of the calendar, while the house held a business session, disposing of the conference report on the hospital bill. Passage of the loan bill without a record vote and in the identical form in which it came from the house defi­ nitely marked the course of future leg­ islation and gave assurance that President Wilson would not find it necessary to change his plan of defer­ ring a call of the new congress until after his return from France, prob­ ably in June. Most Republicans favored an ear­ lier extra session, but after Republi­ can senators at a conference last night failed to reach any decision as to the advisability of obstructing the loan bill no filibuster was undertaken. Although many important hills, in­ cluding the $720,000,000 navy appro­ priation measure with its authoriza­ tion of- a new three-year building pro­ gram and the 1,215.000.000 army bill, apparently ar.e doomed to certain fail­ ure. administration leaders believe that none is of sufficient importance to require an earlier cell of con­ gress, and that the president will ad­ here to his original plan, announced after he arrived from Paris. Passage by the senate of the “Vic­ tory loan” bill, authorizing sale by the treasury of $7,000,000,000 of new short term notes and $1,000,000,000 for advances by the war finance corpora- tion in extending American foreign commerce, came after a bitter con­ troversy, a threatened Republican fil­ ibuster. COAL AND OIL LAND LEASING BILL IS TALKED TO DEATH Washington.—The oil and coal land leasing bill virtually was killed when obstruction led by Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, Republican, prevented a vote on the conference report which had been adopted by the house. Mana­ gers and opponents.of the bill agreed that there now is practically' no chance of securing action on the bill before Congress adjourns. Senator LaFollette spoke for three hours and a half nad only yielded the floor to r.ovov1 "W - — bill being laid before the senate with the understanding that if the oil bill was again brought up. he would not be barred from speaking- again. The Wisconsin senator devoted most of his address to an attack on the senate rules giving conference re­ ports priority over other matters and on the practice of Mnging in such re­ ports on important bill late in the ses­ sion. Washington.—Forty per cent of the total known oil supply in the United States, exclusive of oil shale depos­ its three states, has been exhaust­ ed, according to estimates transmit­ ted by Secretary Lane to the senate commerce committee in compliance with a resolution presented by Sena­ tor Ransdell, of Lonisiana. Up to last January I, Mr. Lane said a total of 4.590S,000,000 barrels had been produced, while the known avail­ able oil resources, not counting the shale deposits, in the ground and in field storage were- estimated at 6,- 740.400.000 barrels: Distillation of shale deposits in Colorado. Utah and Wyoming, however, would produce 70,000.000.000 barrels of oil, the sec­ retary said. LAST OF COASTWISE SHIPS RESTORED TO THEIR OWNERS Washington.—Ships of the Mer­ chants and Miners Transportation Company, engaged in Atlantic coast­ wise traffic were turned back to pri­ vate management by the railroad ad­ ministration, Officials of the company accepted the relinquishment which heretofore they have protested. This action restores the last of the coastwise steamship lines not owned by railroads to private management. 40,000,000 RUSSIANS ENGAGE IN EFFORT TO SAVE COUNTRY Paris.—“Forty million Russians in organized governments are now co­ operating in' a movement for a re­ united Russia. These Russians are working .and fighting, dying by hun­ dreds and even by thousands daily, in an effort to save Russia from com­ plete destruction; and all this is being done without a thought of political ambition,” said Sergius Sazonoff, min- itser of foreign affairs in the Denikine government. • U SEffiSS |1LL BECa BE lf| FfST1 HF :!S: IBTM F-JF1'Stl I Lu . - i n :L* i 11 1 , i L U i — '■ i l i - I w iI Li i w.i ,Wi .u I CONGRESS ;..AY TAKH SOME AC j PEC.'LS CF FA?.:0 A .!.'AITING TION IN SUMMER SESSION IF j WITH ANMTTV RTCULTS OF ONE S3 CALLED. ! PRESIDENT'S Si-'F.ECH. IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE The Railway Administration Decision Not to RelinquishJTontroI at This Time_is Not Reversal of Policyrr Washington.—Uncertainty over the status of railroads in the immediate future was largely removed by Direc­ tor General Hines’ announcement, after conferring with President Wil­ son, that the government would not turn the roads back to private man­ agement until Congres had more op­ portunity to consider a permanent program-of legislation. This was generally interpreted as meaning that the railroads would be under government management for at least another year, and probably long­ er. If a special session of Congress is called early In the summer, railroad legislation migljt be taken up. With the temporary status deter- mined, the railroad administration will go ahead vigorously with the pro­ gram for making improvements and extensions, both for the sake of the rail properties and to stimulate the demand for materials and labor dur­ ing the readjustment period. Another effect will be the increased use of waterways in accordance with Direc­ tor Generar Hines’ expressed policy. It was said at the railroad adminis­ tration that the decision not to relin­ quish the railroads at this time is not a reversal of policy. The railroad ad­ ministration has long advocated early relinquishment, it was explained, but not until Congress had had time to act on the proposed five-year exteusion of government control or to consider other legislation. OOG MEAT SELLING AT TWO DOLLARS PER POUND Washington.—Additional light on the situation in the portions of Rus­ sia under bolshevik control is given by a summary of reports secured re­ cently from a number of refugees who passed through Helsingfors on their way from Moscow to Stockholm. . “The party at Helsingfors,” said the summary, “was • composed of French, British. Belgian and Italian citizens, most of them Red Cross workers. The reports all agree as to the excessive cost of all necessaries and the scarcity of food. Dog meat is quoted at four rubles (two dollars) a pound, horse meat at 15 rubles a pound, pork at 60 rubles and bread at 15 rubles. SAYS FRANCE DOES NOT WANT GERMAN TERRITORY Paris.—The peace conference plans to reach agreements on the more im­ portant questions between March 8 and March 15, Captain Andre Tardieu, one of the French delegates, told foreign newspaper correspondents. He said the conference had four vital problems to solve—the Franco-Ger­ man frontier, the Adriatic situation, the Russian frontier and the question of the freedom-of the seas. AU these questions probably will be completed in a fortnight. ' Captaiii Tardieu declared France does not desire to annex the left bank of the Rhine, , but only wants guar­ antees which will prevent Germany from using it as a base for-attacking France. EUROPEAN UNIVERSITIES GET AMERICAN SOLDIERS Coblenz--The American officers and men who are going to British and PTench universities as soldiers on de­ tached service have been selected and will proceed immediately to the dif­ ferent universities assigned them. The nnmber of applications for the British universities was large, and naturally there ,were some who were disap­ pointed. BLIZZARDS ARE REPORTED IN SEVEN WESTERN STATES Chicago.—Blizzards, were reported in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Okla­ homa, aKnsas, Nebraska and southern South Dakota. Thev weather bureau predicted zero weather for Chicago. In Minnesota a stock train stalled in the snow was struck by a passen­ ger train, two persons killed and a number Inujred. Near Wansa, Neb. a passenger train with 25 persons aboard was stalled in the snow. ANOTHER EFFORT ON FOOT TO SUBMIT-SUFFRAGE AMENDMENT Washington.—Chairman Jones, o! the senate woman suffrage committee, announced that before Congress_ad- pourns another effort would be mads to secure adoption of a resolutior authorizing submission of an equa. -suffrage amendment-to the federa. constitution. In making the an nouncement Senaltor Jones introduced a modified resolution giving states ini­ tial authority to enforce the proposet amendment PLAGE TBUST IN IDEALISM Boston Speech Regarded as Searching Appeal to Hearts' of the Plain People of America. Paris.—President Wilson's Boston speech was awaited here- with curios­ ity and some auxiety. It was expect­ ed to show how he intended to ad­ dress himself to the task which is regarded here as a task of supreme importance for the result of the peace conference and for the political fu­ ture of the United States. That task i3 to secure the support of American public opinion for the work already done in Paris and obtain a valid man­ date for the work that remains to be done. As viewed from Paris, the question at issue seems to be whether the pea- pie and the legislative bodies of the United States will hold fast to the policy inaugurated by American in­ tervention in the^war and sanction an organization for peace in the world on a solid basis or whether they will prefer to revert to the policy of trans, Atlantic provincialism and call it splendid isolation. The best judges of the situation are the most optimistic. They believe that the strongest force in the Unit­ ed States i3 the unselfish idealism of the great ma3s of American citizens. They think that President Wilson has only to make plain to the'Ameri­ can people their postion as co-spon­ sors for the peace and welfare of civ­ ilized humanity for them to give him the support he needs in perfecting the Tranrements tentatively made for the establishment of a league of na­ tions and the formulation of a just peace settlement. His Boston speech is regarded as a very searching ap­ peal to the hearts of the plain people in America. FREDERICK H. GlLLETT IS NOMINATED FOR SPEAKER TVashington.—Representative Fred­ erick H. Gillett of Massachusetts, was nominated on the. first ballot by the Republican caucus as the party can­ didate for speaker in the next house of representatives. . ' Representative James R. Mann, of Illinois, ran second with Representa­ tive Philip Campbell, of Kansas, who entered the race a few days, ago, after Representative Simeon D. Fess. of Ohio, had withdrawn, far behind. SOUTH CAROLINA PORTS LOSE STEAMSHIP LINE Baltimore. Md.—Mason L: W. W'l- llams, president of the Baltimore and Carolin Steamship Company, announc­ ed that upon the return of the steam­ er Matilda Weems from her present crip from this port to Georgetown and Charleston. S. C.. the !ine will with­ draw from business. Mr. Williams said the decision was forced upon the company as it was on the Merchants and Miners Com- naiiv. by the ruline of the railroad ad­ ministration prohibiting transferral of freight between the steamers and the railroads now administered by the gov­ ernment. Mr. Williams added that the amount of port-to-port freight would not he enough to enble his line to meet ex­ penses. WALLACE NOMINATION IS CONFIRMED BY SENATE Washington.—Nomination of Hugh C. Wallace, of Tacdmo. Wash., to be ambassador to France was' confirmed hv the senate, sitting in executive ses­ sion. At the same time nominations of a number of postmasters and offi­ cers of the army to higher grades were confirmed. EUROPEAN EMBARGOES ON ,COTTON CAN’T BE LIFTED Wshngton—President Wilson told senators and representatives from cctton-growing states it would be im­ possible tff lift European embargoes or/ cotton until after the formal dec­ laration of peace? The president told the cotton repre­ sentatives and senators that, under the-terms of the armisice, Germany’s status quo must be maintained.'which was a further discouraging indication for the' cotton situation. A. MITCHELL PALMER IS TO BE ATTORNEY GENERAL ' ’Washington—President Wilson nom­ inated A. Mitchell Palmer for the cab­ inet position of attorney general. Mr. Palmer probably will take offic« March 4 the date tentatively fixed by .Attorney General Gregory for hi3 re tirement when he resigned several months ago to return to private prac tice of law. The resignation of Mr. Palmer at alien property custodian has not beer announced. - LEAGUE SALVATION OEPEIG UPOIiUI UNLESS WE BECOME A PARTY, CHAOS AND TURMOIL WILL RESULT IN EUROPE. DIB NO! CHANGE OPINIONS Decision of Executive Council Will Not Be Binding Unless Approved By All Signatory Nations. Washington. — President Wilson told members of the congressional foreign relations committees that un­ less the United States entered league of nations, the league would fail and chaos and turmoil beyond description would result In Europe. Views of re­ publican members opposing the league constitution as reported to the peace conference apparently were not changed by the conference. Hitchcock, of the senate commit­ tee,'said the PresiSent held that de­ cisions of the leagues executive coun­ cil on disarmament would not be bind­ ing until specifically approved by each signatory nation, and that conse­ quently the American Gpngres would have the opportunity to pass on the apportionment of armament for every nation concerned. The President said that section had been misconstrued. Concerning the clause giving the right to the league to consider acts threatening world peace, President Wilson said that the clause was in­ definite and would be made more clear by writing in a safeguard which would require that every recommen­ dation by the council should be unani­ mous. It also was said that the President informed the senators and represen­ tatives that the disarmament provi­ sion would not interfere with the military training of men, but that it was evident that a trained body of men would not be a danger to world peace if their armament supplies were kept in check. ■Mr. Wilson said the provision for enforcing the determination of the council in case it was disobeyed by any nation would apply in only one case, and that where the party against whom a decision was render­ ed had property, including territory, in its possession which it would not surrender. EACH CHARGES OTHER WITH RESPONSIBILITY FOR DELAY Washington. — Although marked progress in disposing of legislation was made by Congress after an­ nouncement that 'President Wilson would not call an extra session until after his return from Europe, admin­ istration leaders still were extremely doubtful that all the necessary ap­ propriation bills could be enacted be­ fore adjournment. There was considerable tension over the legislative situation, at the capitol after it became known that the President -was insistent that all necessary legislation be disposed of at this session. On the senate floor, and in private conversations, Demo­ crats and Republicans charged each other with responsibility for delay In action on important measures. EXAGGERATED REPORTS AS TO LOSSES IN 30TH DIVISION Washington.—In a letter written to Senator. Overman. Gen. Sam L. Fai­ son, brother of Dr. I. W. Faison, of Charlotte, who commanded the Thir­ tieth (“Old Hickory”) division in the hard fighting in France, said: "Hurled against the most impreg­ nable defenses of the western front it (meaning the Thirtieth division) broke through them with dauntless courage and fortitude, and with losses that are amazingly small, despite the most stubborn and scientific resist­ ance, and also in flat contradiction to exaggerated reports sent home by uninformed men. I am soon coming home in ' command of the division, and less than 10 ffer cent of our men occupy honored graves in the blood- soaked soil of unhappy France. MORRISON OPPOSES REPEAL OF DAYLIGHT SAVING LAW Washington.—Prediction of labor leaders that a national daylight-saving law, making all working hours day­ light hours would reduce the number of industrial accidents, was borne out In the pas year, said Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor, in a statement urging that the law be not repealed. Provision for repeal of the act has been at­ tached by the senate agriculture committee as a rider. CONSTITUTION OF LEAGUE . IS WISE, SOUND AND JUST -•Washington. — Senator Owens of Oklahoma, Democrat, speaking in the senate, declared that while not per­ fect, the .proposed constitution of the league of nations is “wise, sound and just” in its fundamental principles. The speaker, who has just returned from France, urged the senate to con­ sider the league plan constructively, rather than "existing vague suspi­ cions and arousing the hostility of our people.” Feel Lam e and AcbyT Colds and grip leave thousands with weak kidneys and aching backs.

HUTMTION MDST HARMim '•hipping, Cracking and Breaking That Take Place in Shelters and Planters Reduce Productive­ ness of Plants. Prepared by tlie United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) Conclusive evidence lias been ob­ tained from several lines of work con­ ducted by the United States depart­ ment of Agriculture to prove that the productive power of a corn plant is influenced by the treajtraeiit received liy the kernel from which the plant gtew from the time it ripened imiil it was planted. It has been common knowledge that injury to seed coi u would reduce Its germlnability. These investigations have extended beyond germinuliility and determined the ef­ fects of seed treatment upon produc­ tivity independent of germiimbility. Obtain Good Stand. A good stand may be obtained bv the thick planting of poor seed, but with an optimum stand of plants from injured seed such plants are less pro­ ductive than the game number from uninjured seed. These results follow when the seed is injured by normal weather • conditions as well as when injured by subjection to moisture, freezing and thawing. Mechanical mutilations of kernels similar to the chipping, cracking, anil breaking that to some extent take place in shellers anil planters reduce the productiveness of tlie plants that grow from such kernels. Reduce Power of Seed. ■The point of value that has been es­ tablished is that, independent of he­ redity and independent of germlnabil- ity, any injury to dormant seed corn reduces the power of such seed to produce a good crop. Seed corn of 100 per cent germination, laboriously se­ cured from injured seed by individual ear-gerniination tests, is less produe- MAKE PREPARATIONS FOR FARM WOODLAND War Has Brought Matter Direct­ ly to Attention of Farmer.

Now is the time to uinke the plans for the future, laying out with tlie assistance nf the county agent a program of woodland improve­ ment which shall have for its object the growing on the land available of the greatest possible amount of the most valuable or most rapid-growing trees. Then, as time ami labor be­ come available, the plans can be car­ ried out. The poorer species of trees should be gradually eliminated and openings in the woodland filled in just as the farmer replants the failed place in his cornfield. A few days spent now ill carefully considering these subjects will bring ample returns in the future.

FEED BOXES AND HAY RACKS Faulty Construction Cause of Animals Not Getting Feed Intended for Them, (Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment ot Agriculture.) In many Instances animals do not get the feed actually intended for them, due to improper and faulty construc­ tion of boxes aud hay racks. MaDy feed boxes arc so shallow and small that much feed is wasted as the ani-. mals eat from them. In order to pre­ vent this waste tlie feed boxes should be repaired. They should be at least 18 inches wide and 24 inches long and '12 to 14 inches deep. It is often ad­ visable to feed the concentrates with silage to prevent waste. Hay racks should be constructed to prevent animals from tossing or pull­ ing hay under their feet. All hay racks should have a tight bottom to prevent the loss of leaves and finer particles of. hay. The leaves of hay, especially of the legumes, contain most of the protein and are, therefore, that part of the roughage which the ani­ mals need. A few hours work in re­ pairing boxes and hay racks, and at a very small, cost, will' result In saving sufficient feed to maintain the animals in a satisfactory condition. Every Acre Planted Should Be Put Into Condition to Yield Weil— Prices Are High. (Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) The food and feed program for this year is much the same as In 1918, Tlien It was pointed out that on ac­ count of the scarcity und high price of labor, the high prices of everything that went into the making of a crop, and the necessity for a full harvest, the farmer’s efforts should be concen­ trated on his most productive lund. That policy brought tlie biggest re­ turns under war conditions. The same plan should be pursued this year. Prlees for everything that go into mak­ ing the crop are still on a war basis, consequently every acre planted should be put into condition to yield well. Ii is no time to endeavor to improve the poorest fields. That shouid be deferred until the prices of labor and fertilizer again become normal. It -will then be most practicable if done as a supple­ ment to farming better land. This year every stroke of work should be made to count on the best land of each farm, so fliat good yields may offset the high expense of putting in the crops this spring.

More than 59,000 farmers co­ operated with the agricultural county agents last year in the OS northern and western states in treating seed oats for smut. Thoir efforts resulted iu more than 1,000.009 additional acres of oats being sown with treated seed.

SAGE AND SULPHUR DARKENS GRAY HAIR IVs Grandmother's Recipe to Restore Color, Gloss and At­ tractiveness. Almost everyone knows that Sage 'iVa and Sulphur, properly compound­ ed. brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked ■ir gray. Tears ago the only way to wt this mixture .was to make tt at lionie. which is mnssy and trouble­ some. Nowadays, by asking at any ilriig store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sul- pliur Compound,” you will get a large hottle of this famous old recipe, Im­ proved by the addition of other In­ gredients, at a small cost. Don’t stay gray! Try It! No one '-•an possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as It does It so naturally and evenly.

T H E D A V lE REC O R D , M O C K SV ILLE, N. C 0 LlH BILL IS PSSSEB Br SEiIE HOUSE HOLDS BRIEF SESSION DISPOSING OF CONFERENCE REPORT ON HOSPITALS. MANY BILLS DOOMED TO FiIL No Matter of Sufficient Importance to Require the Calling of an Extra Session Expected to Arise. Washington.—The sixty-fifth con­ gress entered upon its last full work­ ing day, facing an unprecedented mass of legislation,-but with the contested “Victory loan” bill out of the way. The senate remained in session all night to pass the loan bill, the key­ stone measure of the calendar, while the house held a business session, disposing of the conference report on the hospital bill. Passage of the loan bill without a record vote and in the identical form in which it came from the house defi­ nitely marked the course of future leg­ islation and gave assurance that President Wilson would not find it necessary to change his plan of defer­ ring a call of the new congress untli after his return from Prance, prob­ ably in June. Most Republicans favored an ear­ lier extra- session, but after Republi­ can seuators at a conference last niglit failed to reach any decision as to the advisability of obstructing the loan bill no filibuster was undertaken. Although many important bills, in­ cluding the $720,000,000 navy appro­ priation measure with its authoriza­ tion of a new tliree-year building pro­ gram and the 1.215.000,000 army bill, apparently are doomed to certain fail­ ure. administration leaders believe that none is of sufficient importance to require an earlier call o£ con­ gress. and that the 'president will ad­ here to his original plan-, announced after lie arrived from Paris. Passage by the senate of the “Vic­ tory loan” bill, authorizing sale by the treasury of $7,000,000,000 of new short term notes and $1,000,000,000 for advances by the war finance corpora­ tion in extending American foreign commerce, came after a bitter con­ troversy, a threatened Republican fil­ ibuster. COAL AND OIL LAND LEASING BILL IS TALKED TO DEATH Washington.—Tlie oil and coal land leasing bill virtually was killed when obstruction led by Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, Republican, prevented a vote on Ilie conference report which had been adopted -by the house. Mana­ gers and opponents of the bill agreed that there now is practically no chance of securing action on the bill before Congress adjourns. Senator LaPolIette spoke for three hours and a half nad only yielded t.he flrtor *tr» V1Mi"■ -• 11- “vi/--.-~ bill being laid before the senate with the understanding that if the oil bill was again brought up. he would not be barred from speaking again. The Wisconsin senator devoted most of his address to an attack on the senate rules giving conference re­ ports priority over other Inattei1S and on the practice, nf !’ringing in such re­ ports on imDortant bill late in the ses­ sion. Washington.—Forty per cent of the total known oil supply in the United States, exclusive of oil shale depos­ its three states, has been exhaust­ ed, according to estimates transmit­ ted by Secretary Lane to the senate commerce committee in compliance with a resolution presented by Sena­ tor .Ransdell, of Louisiana. Up to last January I, Mr. Lane said a total - of 4,5908.000,000 barrels had been produced, while the known avail: able oil resources, not counting the shale deposits, in the ground and In field storage were estimated at 6.- 740.400.000 barrels. Distillation of shale deposits in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming, however, would produce 70.000,000.000 barrels of oil, the sec­ retary said. LAST OF COASTWISE SHIPS RESTORED TO THEIR OWNERS Washington.^—Ships of the Mer­ chants and Miners Transportation Company, engaged In Atlantic coast­ wise traffic were turned back to pri­ vate management by the railroad ad­ ministration. Officials of the company accepted the relinquishment which heretofore they have protested. This action restores the last of the coastwise steamship lines not owned by railroads to private, management. 40,000,000 RUSSIANS ENGAGE IN EFFORT TO SAVE COUNTRY Paris.—“Forty million Russians in organized governments are now co­ operating in a movement for a re­ united Russia. These Russians are working and fighting, dying by hun­ dreds and even by thousands daily, in an effort to save Russia from com­ plete destruction; and all this is being done without a thought of political ambition,” said Sergius Sazonoff, min- ltser of foreign affairs In the Denlkine government. RAILROAD REMAINSMLL DECISION CONGRESS MAY TAKE SOM E -AC TION IN SUMMER SESSION IF ONE IS CALLED. IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MASE The Railway Administration Decision Not to Relinquish Control at This Time is Not Reversal of Policy. Washington.—Uncertainty over the Etatus of railroads in the immediate future was largely removed by Direc­ tor General Hines’ announcement, after conferring with President Wil­ son, that the government would not turn the roads back to private man­ agement until Congres had more op­ portunity to consider a permanent program of legislation. This was generally interpreted as meaning that the railroads would be under government management for at least another year; and probably long­ er. If a special session of Congress is called early in the summer, railroad legislation might be taken up. With the temporary status deter­ mined, the railroad administration will go ahead vigorously with the pro­ gram for making improvements and extensions, both for the sake of the rail properties and to stimulate the demand for materials and labor dur­ ing the readjustment period. Another effect will be the... increased use of waterways in accordance with Direc­ tor General Hines' expressed policy. It was. said at the railroad adminis­ tration that the decision not to relin­ quish the railroads at this time is not a reversal of policy. The railroad ad­ ministration has long advocated early relinquishment, it was explained, but not until Congress had had time to act on the proposed five-year extension of government control or to consider other legislation. DOG MEAT SELLING AT TWO DOLLARS PER POUND Washington.—Additional light on the situation in the portions of Rus­ sia under bolshevik control is given by a summary of reports secured. re­ cently frriin a number of refugees who passed through Helsingfors on their way from Moscow to Stockholm. “The party at Helsingfors.” said the summary, “was composed of French, British, Belgian and Italian citizens., most of them Red Cross workers. The reports all agree as to the excessive cost of all necessaries and the scarcity of food. Dig neat is quoted at four rubles (two dollars) a pound, horse meat at 15 rubles a pound, pork at GO rubles and bread at 15 rubles. SAYS FRANCE DOES NOT WANT GERMAN TERRITORY Paris.—The peace conference plans to reach agreements on the more im­ portant questions between March S and March 15, Captain Andre Tardieu. one of the French delegates, told foreign newspaper correspondents. He said the conference had four vital problems to • solve—the Franco-Ger­ man frontier, the Adriatic situation, the Russian frontier and the question of the freedom of the seas. All these questions probably will be completed In a fortnight. Captain Tardieu declared France does not desire to annex the left bank of the Rhine, but only wants guar­ antees which will prevent Germany from using it as a base for attacking France. EUROPEAN UNIVERSITIES GET AMERICAN SOLDIERS Coblenz.—The American officers and men who are going to British and French universities as soldiers on de­ tached service have been selected and will proceed immediately to the dif­ ferent universities assigned them. The number of applications for the British universities was large, and naturally there were some who were disap­ pointed. .

PLACE TRUST IN IDEALISM Boston Speech Regarded as Searching Appeal to Hearts of the Plain People of America. Paris.—President Wilson’s Boston speech was awaited here with curios­ ity and some anxiety. It was expect­ ed to show how he Intended to ad­ dress himself to the task which is /egarded here as a task of supreme importance for the result of the-peace conference and for the political Ctt- tuVe of the United States. That task is to secure the support of. American public opinion for the work already done in Paris and obtain a valid man­ date for the work that remains to be done. As viewed from Paris, the question at issue seems to be whether the pea- Ple and the legislative bodies of the United States will hold fast to the policy inaugurated by American in­ tervention In the war and sanction an organization for peace in the world on a solid basis or whether they will prefer to revert to the policy of trans- Atbntic provincialism and call it "plendid isolation. The best judges of the situation are ihe most optimistic.' They believe that the strongest force in the Unit­ ed States is the unselfish idealism of fiie great mass-of American citizens, they think that President Wilson : o only to make plain to the Ameri- .;an people their postion as co-spon- ^ors for the peace and welfare of civ­ ilized humanity for them to give him the support he needs in perfecting the •-•rranRempnts tentatively made for the establishment of a league of na- Lions and the formulation of a just ^eace settlement.

SOUTH CAROLINA PORTS LOSE STEAMSHIP LINE LEAGUE SALtAllOl GEPEUl Ul UNLESS WE BECOME A PARTY, CHAOS AND TURMOIL WILL RESULT IN EUROPE. DID NOT CHANGE OPINIONS Decision of Executive Council Will Not Be Binding Unless Approved iSy AU Signatory Nations. Washington. — President Wilson told members o£ the ‘congressional foreign relations committees that un­ less the United States entered league of nations, the league would fail and chaos and turmoil beyond description would result in Europe. Views of re­ publican members opposing the league constitution as reported to the peace conference apparently were not changed by the conference. Hitchcock, of the senate commit­ tee, said the President held that de­ cisions of the leagues executive coun­ cil on disarmament would not be bind­ ing until specifically approved by each signatory nation, and that conse­ quently the American Congres would have the opportunity to pass on the apportionment of armament for every nation conecrned. The President said that section had been misconstrued. Concerning the clause giving the right to the league to consider acts threatening world peace, President Wilson said that the clause was in­ definite and would be made more clear by writing in a safeguard which would require that every recommen* dation by the council should be unani­ mous. - It also was said that the President fnformed the senators and represen­ tatives that the disarmament provi­ sion would not interfere with the military training of men, but that it was evident that a trained body of men would not be a danger to'world peace if their armament supplies were kept in check. Mr. Wilson said the provision for enforcing the determination of the council in case it was disobeyed by any nation would apply in only one case, and that where the party against whom a decision was render­ ed had property, including territory, in its possession which it would not surrender.

EUROPEAN EMBARGOES ON COTTON CAN’T SE LIFTED Wahngton'.—President Wilson told senators' and representatives from cdtton-growing states it would be im­ possible to lift European embargoes or. cotton until after the formal dec­ laration -of peace. •The president told the cotton repre­ sentatives and senators that, under the term3 of the armisice. Germany’s i<Utus quo must be maintained, which WJis a further discouraging indication for the cotton situation. A. MITCHELL PALMER IS TO BE ATTORNEY GENERAL Washington. — Although marked progress in disposing of legislation was made by Congress after an­ nouncement that President Wilson would not call an extra session until after his return from Europe, admin­ istration leaders r.till were extremely doubtful that all the necessary ap­ propriation bills could be enacted be­ fore adjournment. There was considerable tension over the legislative situation at the capitol after it became known thnt. the President was insistent that all necessary legislation be disposed of at this session. On the senate floor, and in private conversations, Demo­ crats and Republicans charged ' each other with responsibility for delay in action on important measures. EXAGGERATED REPORTS AS TO LOSSES IN 30TH DIVISION Washington.—In a letter written to Senator Overman, Gen. Sam L. Fai­ son, brother ot Dr. I. W.

Cracking and Breaking That Take Place in Shelters and Planters Reduce Productive­ ness of Plants. Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) Conclusive evideuce has been ob­ tained from several lines of work con­ ducted by the United .States depart­ ment of Agriculture to prove that the productive power of a corn plant Is influenced by the treatment received l»y the kernel from which,the plant grew from the time it ripened until it was planted. It has been common knowledge that Injury to seed corn would reduce its germiuability. These investigations have extended beyond gerniinability and determined the ef­ fects of seed treatment upon produc­ tivity independent of germinability. Obtain Good Stand. - A good stand may be obtained by- the thick planting of poor seed,'but with an optimum stand of plants from injured seed such plants are less pro­ ductive than the same number from uninjured seed. These results follow when the seed is injured by normal weather conditions as well as when Injured by subjection to moisture, freezing and thawing. Meciianical mutilations of kernels similar to the chipping, cracking, and breaking that to some extent take jilace In shellers and planters reduce the productiveness of the plants that grow from such kernels: Reduce Power of Seed. The point of value that has been es­ tablished is that, independent of he­ redity and independent of genniuabil- ity, any injury to dormant seed coru reduces the power of such seed to produce a good crop. Seed coru of TOO per cent germination, laboriously se­ cured from Injured seed by individual ear-germination tests, is less produc- MAKE PREPARATIONS FOR FARM WOODLAND War Has Brought Matter Direct­ ly to Attention of Farmer.

On many farms there are small am is unprofitable for farm purposes, wiiich should be reforested as soon us the price of nursery stock and labor becomes normal. Now is the time to make the plans for the future, laying out with the assistance of the county agent a program of woodlaud improve­ ment which sliall have for its object the growing on the land available of the greatest possible amount of the most valuable or most rapid-growing trees. Then, as time and labor be­ come available, the plans can be car­ ried Ottt The poorer species of trees should - be gradually eliminated and openings ia the woodland filled in just as the farmer replants the failed place in his cornfield.

FEED BOXES AND HAY RACKS Faulty Construction Cause of Animals Not Setting Feed Intended for Them. (Prepared' by the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) In many instances animals do not get the feed actually intended, for them, due to impropet and faulty construc­ tion of boxes and hay racks. Many feed boxes tire so shallow and small that much feed Is wasted as the ani­ mals eat from them. In order to pre­ vent this waste the feed boxes should be repaired. They should be at least 18 inches wide and 24 inches long and 12 to 14 inches deep." It is often ad­ visable to feed the concentrates with silage to prevent waste. Hay racks should be constructed to prevent animals from tossing or pull­ ing hay under their feet. All hay racks should have a tight bottom to prevent the loss of leaves and finer particles of hay. The leaves of hay. especially of the legumes, contain most of the protein and are, therefore, that part of the roughage which the ani- mals. need. A few hours work in re'; pairing boxes and hay racks, and at a very small cost, will result in saving sufficient feed to maintain the animals in a satisfactory condition. Every Acre Planted Should Be Put Into Condition to Yield Welt— Prices Are High. (Prepared Uy the United; States Depart­ ment of Agriculture.) The food and feed program for this year Is much the same as In 1918, Tlien it was pointed out thnt on ac­ count of the scarcity and high price of labor, the high prices of everything that went into the making of a crop, and the necessity for a. full harvest, the farmer’s efforts should be concen­ trated on his. most productive land. That policy brought the biggest re­ turns under war conditions. The same plan should be pursued this year. Prices for everything that go iuto-mak- ing the crop are stiil on a war basis, consequently every acre planted should be put into condition to yield well. It is no time to endeavor to improve the poorest tields. That should be deferred until the prices of labor and fertilizer again become normal. It will then be most practicable if done us a supple­ ment to farming better laud. This year every stroke of work should be made to count on the best land of each farm, so that good yield's may offset the high expense of putting in the crops this spring. SEED TREATMENT AIDS OATS AT SERVICE OF ALL FARMERS United States Department of Agricul­ ture Gives Assistance Costing Nothing. (Prepared by the United States Depart­ment of Agriculture.) - The United States department of agriculture is at the service of every farmer. Not every farmer, however, takes advantage of that service. The department's advice costs the farmer nothin;; but: the assistance giveu may save hi n a great deal- Doth iu tuuc sad iu t, ay. As Result of Efforts of Farmers and County Agents Million More Acres Seeded. (Prepared by the United States Depart­ ment cf Agriculture.) More . than 50,000 farmers co­ operated w ith the agricultural county agents last year in the 33 northern and western states in treating seed oats for smut. Their efforts resulted in more than 1,000,000 additional acres of oats being sown with treated seed. Based on reports made the previous year the results of this work increased the yield an average of about four bushels au acre, and this increase was brought about in most cases at a cost of less than ten cents un acre. FARMING WITHOUT RECORDS Great Deal Like Playing Game With­ out Determining dinner—Keep Track of Things. Tou wouldn’t play a game of any kind without determining w’io was tho winner- when if was finished, would you?

That the fertilizer movement has been slow this year and that conges­ tion of traffic is probable unless ' -."mers put in their orders at once, is the burden of a statement issued yesterday by Regional Railroad Di­ rector Winchellv-which is a3 follows: ‘ Please let me say a word to our farmer patrons. “The normal yearly movement of fertilizers in this region runs from tnree million to five million tons. This means, in round figures, 160.000 carloads to be handled. “Ordinarily most of this very large item of traffic is thrown on the rail­ roads in the months of January, Feb ruary and March. Great activity on their part is necessary to handle the same well. "By February 10 at least 40 per cent of the whole fertilizer tonnage has usually been shipped, but this year less than 15 per cent has moved so far; that is to say. the movement up to date is about 50,000 cars short of what it should have been. “It is easv for you to see wbat I fear. “A flood of business at the last moment cannot bq moved to the sa­ tisfaction of our patrons and com­ plaints, will surely j follow. We are aoxiop to avoid’complaints, but it is obvious that we cannot move all of this'tonnage at one time. In or­ der to do the job right it is neces­ sary that it be well distributed thru- out the whole three months. “During the past four or live weeks car conditions and weatheT have been favorable, but the ferti­ lisers have not moved freely and im mediate activiry is now necessary to avoid a situation which will be ser­ ious alike to the farmers and the railroads.” I W.

Miss Mabel Warner of Salina, Kan., and Chicago left Paris a few days ago for Rome, where she will be in charge of a Hostess House for American girls employed there by the American Red Cross, the Embassy and the new Tu­ berculosis Commission. Miss Warner lias been director of the Y. W, C. A. Hostess House at Brest, France. Miss Warner will open a tea room and club rooms where the American women can gather for social times. Rome is harboring a refuge population of about 40,000 and accommodations are difficult to find. The work in Rome was started as a direct result of the appeal of Miss Charlotte Niven, one of the National Y. W'. C. A. secretaries in Italy, who is spending a few months In France as advisor in the French work. Miss Niven’s dreams of Y. W. C. A. work in Italy include the maintenance of a residence for non-Italian women, who, she feels, will come to Italy in great numbers after the war to study music and art. “I believe at this time such a project Is particularly important because wo­ men from other countries should be encouraged to come to Italy to replace the great numbers of German women who flooded Italy in the past, many of them paid agents of their govern­ ment,” Miss NIven said In discussing her plans. Miss Niven has asked the American y. w. C. A. to aid the Italian Associa­ tion In establishing a center, perhaps at Genoa, with two American, secre­ taries, with physical and recreational training, to act as a training school for Italian women. In connection with it her plan would include a Hostess House for girls passing through the city or employed there. Such a center would become eventunlly the center for all. Y. W. C. A. work in Italy, both Italian and foreign. In her formal appeal for help for the UnIone Christiana Delle GiovanI (the Italian name for Young Women’s Christian Association) Miss Niven has emphasized two facts, the poverty of the Italian Assoclationontheonehand and the need and opportunity on the other for an American program In Italyat the present time. Miss Niven's favorite way of illus­ trating the friendliness of the Italian woman to America is by telling the story of the Italian mother who said she had taken down the picture of the Madonna which had hung for many years over her bed and was putting in its place one of President Wilson. “In our work in the Unione we have lacked trained leadership as well as the material resources to give such training. We- have had no means to buy modem equipment. ‘ Consequently we have not the visible results of American and British work. • “Feeble as our work may be, it is not useless. Many girls in all parts of Italy have told us how much the Unlone meant In their lives. Italian girls are touchingly grateful for the smallest efforts. They respond eager­ ly to friendliness. “There is no other agency doing In Italy what the Association Is trying to do.” *. Miss NIven has spent the past seven years In work with the Italian wo­ men, starting as director of a hostel, or boarding home, for Italian women stu­ dents at Florence. She is an Ameri­ can from New York, where she was one time head of the Chrlstadora Set­ tlement Honse. Memfiisagg H m sa e y S i o g s s Tho TkskSo Heals The Throat Cures The Cough Price 35c.

The statement is made that upon his return from Europe President Wilson may tour the country to inform the people as to the issues before the peace conference. The people of this country would not mind getting this information while it is fresh. Moreover it is perfectly clear that it Presiden: Wilson wants to,inform the people on this subject it will not be neces­ sary for him to go traveling about the country by special train >o do it? The people do not get their information as to what President Wilson thinks by hearing his speeches, but by reading thorn. He can say whatever he has to say on the W hite House steps, or in the privacy of his owu library, and it will go into print iu every news­ paper in the country and be read and discussed by a hundred mill­ ion people. The only possible purpose of a swing around the country by special train is to point to the crowds always attracted by the visit of a chief executive as evidence of the tremendous favor with which what he says has been received, whereas these ■ proper courtesies possess no significance at all in determining the degree of favor with which an official’s theories are received by the people. The people are getting a bit weary of the spectacular in connection with national and international affairs. They ask for the applica­ tion of a little more horse sense and a little less of the sound and fury which signifies nothing.—Na­ tional Republiean. Ifourp eoplew ould all get to­ gether and every one patronize and encourage, every home institution, our community would blossom like the rose and flourish like the fer­ tile fields of growing grain. Stand to your home institutions and your own community. When you fail to do this, and go to another com­ munity to bestow your patronage, when your home is entitled to it, you leave a bad impression upon those yon do patronize. They know you are nut doing the right thing, and wonder what is the matter with you.—Bill Montgom­ ery. Tfae Best Laxative. ‘My sedentary habits have necessitated the use of an occasional laxative. I have tried many but nothing better than Cham­ berlain’s Tablets,” writes George. F, Dan­ iels, Hardwick. Vt. Mr. Daniels is propri­ etor of the Hardwick inn, one of the mod­ el hotels of New England. Clark’s Concern. W hen Champ Clark demanded the immediate return of every American soldier in Europe he probably was more concerned about the Commander in Chipf than about the rank and file.—N. Y . Post. Has Had Stomach Trouble For Seven Years. Theodore Sanfcrd of Fenmore, Mich., has had stomach trouble for seven years and could not eat vegetables or fruit with­ out pain in the stomach and restless nights. By taking Chamberlain's Tablets he is now able to eat vegetaqles or fruit without causing pain or sleeplessness. Ii troubled with indigestion or constipation give these tablets a trial. They are cer­ tain to prove beneficial. Those two Cains, convicted of murder at Dobson and sentenced to be electrocuted, did not get away with it like the First Cain. Says the Catawba Coimty News: ‘One can be disloyal to a country, to a cause, by a convenient exton siou of the meaning of the word, to an employer. But can anybody -be disloyal to a postmaster gen­ eral!” Not the present one, neighbor.— Hickory Mercury. A Timely Suggestion. The next time you have a cough or cold t r y Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. It is pleasant to take and you are sure to be pleased with the relief which it affords. This remedy has a wide reputation .for its cutes of coughs and colds. _ A Raggedy Issue. The Republicans at Greensboro Feb. 15, sent out to the world the general statement that Democratic election frauds are rampant In North Carolina; that the Demo cratic registrars ot election are cor rupt and boldly vote dead men and soldiers under age, and refuse Republicans the privilege of voting The public, unfamiliar with the eleetioh machinery in this State, way be inclined to believe those storieB of fraud. It- might not oc­ cur to them to wonder how these flagrant frauds'could be perpetra­ ted right- under the eyes of Repub­ lican poll holders, who are provi ded for especially in the direction of establishing fairness to their party at the ballot box, and it might uot occur to them that at Republicau precincts the Republi­ cans in tact done the same, things they charge the Democrats with having done. The Republicans will have to go before the intelli­ gence of North Carolina wit i a better issue than the threadbare cry of fraud before they may ex. pect any head wav in this state. — Charlotte Observer. Has the Observer ever seen a Democratic election official indict­ ed in North Carolina! If so, has it ever seen one convicted? When a man swears that he has been de frnuded of his vote it is the duty of officials to indict and persecute and if the defendant has not been, then the plaintiff is subject to re address. A t the State Convention Saturday, Chairman Linney had a valise full of such affidavits. No State or Federal officer, has offered to investigate or persecute. From District Attorney Hammer’s coun­ ty, Mr. Linney read several and it will be remembered by a card printed by said District Attorney just before the election he promised to indict every case of fraudulent election methods brought to his at­ tention. Tue above vaporings ot the Observer are to be expected15 L’he Republicans of North Carolina Saiurday resoluted to have honest elections and they will. Even Gov. Bickctt and Secretary of ^ the Navy Daniels say the Democratic Primary Law should be amended or repealed,. The law is so defect­ ive that even Democrats do not stand for it. Then what can Re­ publicans expect from such a law in the hands of the dominant par ty? Is not the Observer for honest elections?—TJnion Republican. Why Colds Are Dangerous. You are often told to “beware of a cold," but why? We will tell you: Every cold weakens the hunts, lowers the vitali­ ty and paves the way for the more ser­ ious diseases. People who contract pneumonia first take cold. The longer a cold hangs on, the greater the danger, es­ pecially from the germ diseases, as a cold prepares the system for the reception and development of the germs of consumption diptheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. The quicker you get rid of your cold, the less the danger of contracting one of these diseases. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a great reputation as a cure for colds and can be depended on. It is pleasant to take. Jast So. If all the railroads have run down in the matter of equipment like the Southern, five years more under government control will put them on the junk pile.—Charity ann Children.

LaFollette, Teun., Feb. 10—One of the most remarkable letters of resignation ever seen here is that of A . M. Riggs, postmaster of La- Follette, which has been forwarded to John C. Koous, third assistant postmaster general. The letter, which is self-explan- at.iry, reads as follows: ■‘Your kind favor of the 4th -iast. is received, informing me that uow the war is over and less de­ manded of its loyal citizens, the government can manage to wag a long without my services as post­ master at LaFollette. Tenn., there fore, I resign. “ It pains me to do this, and I shall ever look back with regret to this rude separation from this ideal position requiring twelv.e hours a day service with the muni­ ficent compensation (after footing expenses) of two dollars a day. I have neglected my personal affairs to serve the government, doing any and everything required, selling Liberty Bonds and War Stamps galore, earrying water and sweep­ ing the floor Hs Uncle Sam has stu­ diously avoided making any allow­ ances for incidental expenses. Selling war stamps and immediate­ ly cashing the same has been one of-m y pet diversions. When I realize I am no longer compelled to do all these things and a host of others equally edifying such as ex plaining to the department why the mail carrier took the “flu,” and the postmaster on a certain occasion (as reported Dy an inspec­ tor) sent an employe to the office .(or his mail instead of going_him- self, and why Rockepelter and C impany’s mail box was not closed the hour said company failed to pay box rent when due, why the flies were allowed to spec certain lobby notices required to lie kept posted there—when, I say I con­ template all these things. I again resign. “ I am made to cogitate on the futility of so conducting the office that the patrons do not complain, of properly keeping the records and pa uctillio asly accounting for every dollar of Unele Sam’s cash— made to understand that I ‘in the midst of the fighting’ must be on the spot eight hours a day and ev­ ery day, regardless. I would gent­ ly inform you, my dear General Koons, that what you need as post­ master here is a man who can sup­ port a family of eight on two dol­ lars a day. I frankly confess that I do not know bow to do it. Do you? Realizing all this it is with a satisfying sense of resignation that I resign some more. “ And now. in my grand finale of resignation, I avail myself ofithe opportunity of congratulating the United States of America on having so efficient an assistant postmaster general as is your honored self. I am convinced that nothing escapes your vigilant eyes. I am made to shudder when I contemplate what- may happeD to this great country of ours wheu the fateful day ar­ rives when you, even you, will be summarily and unceremoniously kicked from office (the public wel­ fare demanding it) as you now withou t feeli ng or j ustice deprive me of mine. “ Crepe is on the postoffice door and the town is in mourning.

We have certainly been having fun for the last lew,days. Thursday we autoed to the coun­ try club and golfed until dark, clieu trollied back to town and •lanced until morcing. The country concin not to be out- lone in the least began telling some of their eiipple life. “ We have had pretty good times here too. One day we buggied out to Uncle Ned’s and went out to the back lot where we baseballed all that after­ noon.-. And in tbe evening we meaked up to the attic and poker­ ed until morning. A Bturdy old farmer, who was listening and wa. not to be stump­ ed in the least, took up the conver­ sation at this point, and said, “I was having some fun about this time myself. I muled to the corn­ field and gee-hawed until sundown. Chen I suppered until dark, and farm-papered until 8 o’clock, after which I bedsteaded until tne clock tived after which I break I as led un­ til it was time to go muling again. —Judge.

Thought He Would Have to Stop Working—Tanlac Makes Him Well Again. “To my mind Tanlac is the great­ est mc-dicine in the world,” said 0 . H. MahalJcy. chief engineer of the Life and Casualty building, Nash­ ville, Tenn. “For two years,” he continued. “I suffered awfully with the worst kind of stomach trouble and went down until I lost forty-eight pounds, My back ached terribly and I suffer­ ed so much misery from indigestion that I thought I had an ulcerated stomach and was actually afraid to eat anything but a littleoatmeal and sweet milk. I got weaker every day till finally, as nothing I took did me any good. I thought I would just have to throw up my job. “My wife read in the papers where a man had suffered like I was had been helped by taking Tanlac, and she begged me to try it. After I had taken Tanlac a few days I began to get hungry and started in eating like I was starved, and nothing hurt me a.bit. Soon those awful pains in my stomach and back were gone, I sleep fine at night now and get up in the morning full of life and ener­ gy and ready for my work.” “Tanlac is sold in Mocksville, by Crawford’s Drug Co., in Cooleemee by the Cnoleemee Drug Go., and by all good druggists.” ADVERTLSEMENT Grove’s Tasteless chill Tooic restores vitality and energy by purifying and en­ riching the blood.

IHE DAVlE RECORD. C. FRANK STROUD - - Editor. TELEPHONE I. Entered at the Postoffice inMocks- zille, N. C., as Second-class Mail ■natter. March 3. 1903. ________ SUBSCRIPTION RATES: ONE YEAR. IN ADVANCE - $ I 00 SIX MONTHS, IN ADVANCE - $ 75 THREE MONTHS, IN ADVANCE $ 5ft WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12. 1919. It’s a pity that Sidney Albert Bur­ leson didn’t RO with President Wil­ son to France. “W. S. S.” We would like to print a text of the bills that our Senator and Repre­ sentative had passed during the late u n p I e a s a ntness. Will some one please send them in. «W. S. S.” Some of the cotton buyers and dealers are saying that lint cotton will be selling for 15 cents a pound next fall. Weare afraid there is more truth than poetryZ in their statement. “W. S. S.” President Wilson left New York last Wednesday for Paris, and says that he is going to remain over there until things are settled. We will try to get along somehow until he gets back. “W. S. S.” Maybe the groundhog didn’t live up to his former representation this year, but most farmers think that what he did for them was a plenty. The middle of March, and no plow, ing done yet. “ff. S. S.” "Wilson and Taft marched arm in arm,” is what we read in the papers last week. Well, the Book says that the lion and lamb shall lie down to gether. Will some one teil us which is which? “W. S. S.* The governmentset the price of wheat, and the people pay the freight. Thegovernment wouldn’t set the price of cotton and the peo­ ple pay the freight and express. Take your choice. «W. S. S.” W hynotrunBurleson for presi­ dent in 1920? If he should be elect­ ed it would take him four years to find it out without the mail and tele­ graph service were greatly improved before that date. “W .S.S.” Some of the papers are raising a howl because Mrs. Woodrow Wilson purchased her spring and summer clothes in Paris, Seems to us that it is nobody’s business where Mrs. Wilson buys her spring bonnets. “W. S. S.” The new court house leaks all right as ■' Father” says, but the dear taxpayers do not have to foot the bills. The fellows who built the court house have to make good. Another case of howling when the books wasn’t audited. “W. S. S.” Congress has adjourned and no provision made in regard to financing the railroads for another year. Maybe the owners of the said rail­ roads would be willing co take them back and thus save the taxpayers of this country a few hundred million. “TV. S. S.* Some of our citizens seem to be afraid to at Mocksville will grow a little When a new enterprise offers to locate among us there is always a bunch of knockers who do all they can to keep it out. There is but one hope for our town—some funerals ora law to banish some of the knockers to Russia. “W. S. S.” ABRASS BAND ADMINISTRA­ TION. The War Department gravely an­ nounces that contracts have been cancelled calling for 867 trombones, 900 flutes and 2,122 saxaphones, to­ gether with a great variety of other musical instruments. Apparently the bands of the American Expedi­ tionary Force were to be fully equip­ ped even though the artillery, air­ plane and tank corps lacked the es- sentiajs/'for effective service. ■ “W. S. S.r FEDERAL PLUM DUFF. Now of course, every sensible ci­ tizen realizes that when our country has gone through a struggle to the extent that it has gone in the great1 war, taxes must necessarily be large, j In fa ctitis easily understood howj they will remain so for some years to come. BUT—just because a peo-j pie have become accustomed to high prices and to the necessity of high taxes, it is no reason why the Ad­ ministration should continue to ap­ propriate blindly and continue un­ necessary war pay rolls. We have it that the army is being demobilized rapidly and it is not a pleasant thought to behold the political hang­ ers on enjoying their swivel chair jobs after the slightest excuse for their existence has passed. This huge army of war-workers in Wash­ ington has been reduced so slightly that it is not perceptible. They are still in the city by the thousands and from the looks of many of .hem they are far from overworked. In fact one girl said: “I haven't done a lick of work for a week.” Nice isn’t it? Let ’em go ahead and enjoy all the pudding they con ,get while the getting is good. The day of reck oning always comes. But in the meantime, the people pay. “TV. S. S.” Armenian Relief Report. Below I give a report of the can­ vass for Armenian and Syrian relief. All reports are not in and this is not a complete report: Galahaln To wnship—Allotment $50 The committee in lower Caiahaln, Mesdames Berry Foster and W. L Harp.r and Miss Tempie Smoot, have done splendid service. They have raised $26.50, which is more than their quota, and thev are still at work. The committee in upper Caiahaln, Mrs. Henry Anderson, H. S. Walker, Luke Tutterow and Mar­ shall Ratledge have reported $16. The upper folks will not let the Townshipfall behind. Farmington Township—Allotment $120. This township never fails. W. A. Taylor, chairman, and his com­ mittee are at work. Fulton Township—Allotment $80; Mr. Peter Hairston, chairman, and his workers just went to work and raised the amouut called for. $44 of this was secured last Sunday at the Fork Baptist church. Rev. Barrs is a tine leader in all such work. Jerusalem Township.—Allotment $200. The canvass has been delayed but this township never fails and usually leads. Cooleemee. with the help of Liberty, Concord, Jerusalem and Turrentine churches, can do anything they undertake. Moclraville Township.—Allotment $200 This township has raised $500 and the committees are BtHl at work. Shady Grove Township—Allotment $1 0 0 . No report, Clarksville Township.—Allotment $50. Committees not appointed. Re­ port later. E. 0. COLE. Co. Chairman. “W. S. S.” Bonus of $60 Goes To AU Iu Ser­ vice. In accordance with the Revenue act sigued by Prealflent Wijson on February 24, all men discharged since that time and those who have been discharged from the service of the government in war work are receiviug a bonus of $60. This ruling appiies to officers as well aa enlisted men and to every person in the military or naval service since April 6 1917. the date of our entrance ioto the war. Those soldiers, sailors and nnr ses who have already been dis­ charged from the service will re­ ceive their bonus as well as those to be discharged later. It is ne. cessary to write to the “Zone F i­ nance Officer,” Lemon Building, Washington, D. C., and submit to that officer a certified copy of the order under which the applicant was discharged or the discharge papers. If the latter are submit­ ted they will be returned in due time to the applicant. The best plan to follow in sending the dis charge paperB is to register the letter in which they are sent in order to insure prompt and sure delivery. This order, as interpretated, re­ fers to commissioned and enlisted men of the navy and army and al so to nurses and to other persons who have served in any branch of the military service under the di­ rection of the government. A p­ plications should be made as soon as possible in order to insure a prompt receipt ot the bonus. “TV. 8. S.” Demobilized Instauter. According to reports, Secretary McAdoo stepped out of a $12,000 government job into a $1 0 0 ,0 0 0 pri­ vate job .The President demobilized him when he requested. There are some hundreds of thousands of men in the army still drawing $30 per month who have been trying to get ] into their private jobs, but without | success. Thev should have become relatives of the President or of the cabinet before entering the army, so that it would be easier to get out when the war was over.—Hickory Mercury, Minority Representation. The bill of Representative Bry­ ant of Durham, to elect all county school boards by the Legislature, may or may'not get through, but one feature of it should become law. no matter by what method the school boards are selected, and that is minority party representa­ tion on these boards. Partisan politics should not be considered in the selection of school officials. Character, intelligence aud the oth­ er characteristics that lit one for the place should be the qualifies- tion fur school committeemen, county school boards and other public school officials. But in this part of the country it is so custo inary for the majority party— whether Republicans or Democrats —to seize all offices and honors, that the custom will not be chang ed soon unless changed by legisla­ tive action. To insure the non- partisan administration of the schools, the law should require mi­ nority party representation. A “ to the method of electing school boards, The Lapdmark has “ no ruthers.” There is much fal­ lacy in the idea that election by the people will insute more satis­ factory men thau appointment by the Legislature. The most forci­ ble objection to the latter method is that under it the school officials iu each couniy would be named by a few men; that the “ machine.” or “ the ring,” or “ the leaders,” whatever the county controllers in each county (there are “ county controllers” in every county) may­ be called, will name the men; that often are unfit and objectionable men—men who couldn’t be elected Dy the people—are named as the result of a personal or political “ pull.” Al so.. But usually the “county controllers.” if Ibe “ ma chine” is in good operating condi­ tion, can and do name the men who are elected by the people, so what’s the difference?—The Land­ mark. “W. S. S.” Eight Brothers Killed. Of twelve brothers who entered the service, eight have been kill'd in action, one has lost an arm aud a leg, another had both arms am­ putated..still another lost au arm. and the last has been reported wounded, degree undetermined. This j.s the war record of the fam­ ily of Atsse Margaret Gilson, of Hartford, whose jwrgnts, Mr. and Mrs. O. M.. Gilson, make Lheir hows in San. ADtonio, Texas.—Ex. Birthday Dinner. OnFeb. 28, Mr. G. M. Wiison passed his 72nd mile post. This was a glad day to Mr. Wilson as well as to his neighbors and friends, about 130 of whom gathered at his home to spend the day with him. At noon, all gathered around a longtablebounteously spread with good things to eat. When dinner was finished Mr. Wilson in a few im­ pressive words expressed to the crowd his appreciation and bid ev­ ery body have a good. time, which thev had, and all went away at even­ ing, wishing for Mr. Wilson many returns of that happy day. ONE PRESENT. “W. S. S.” May Get Cannon. P. W. Hairston, chairman of the local board, is doing ail he can to se cure a German cannon for Mocks­ ville, and has been assured that if any cannon are brought from Europe our claim will be considered. Here’s hoping that a cannon will come our way. “W. S. S.” , Talk Is Cheap. Ifevery Democrat who talks a- gainst this administration would as­ sert his intention to vote against it, there would be few Democratic can­ didates for Congress in 1920.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. Judg’ng from reports from druggist* who an constantly in direct touch with the public, there i9 one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examimag physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the as­ tonishing statement that one reason why to many applicants for insurance are re­ jected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica­tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease: It is on sale at all drug stores in bottleB of two sizes, medium and large.

I T U B O U H W !QUESTION Lloyd George's Plan Involves Aband­ onment of Military Conscription In All Conquered Territory. Paris—Stephen Pichon, the French foreign minister, in his talk with the correspondents, discussed the bearing of the food situation iu Germany on the speedy conclusion of peace. He said that the urgent need of supplying Germany was recognized at Paris. In signing the armistice last Janu­ ary, Germany agreed to hand over Her commercial fleet, to be used in re- victualling Europe generally, and Ger­ many particularly. Yet, continued the minister, at a recent meeting at Spa tlie German delegates declared that the arrangement was unsatisfactory :tnd that they would “absolutely refuse to part with their ships.” The allies were willing. Mr. Pichon went on. not only to sunnly fn-yi ;>nt to accord credit to Germany, but Ger­ many must first declare her willing­ ness to live up to the conditions of the January armistice. As soon as the terms of the Ger­ man peace have been concluded, Mr. Pichon said, the council would take up the Austrian peace which would involve the future boundaries between Italy and former Austro-Hungarian territory. The subject has already Iieen discussed recently. The council has adopted Premier IJoyd George's plans for regulaitng the future military strength of Germany, according to the minister who confirm­ ed the fact that this involves the abandonment of conscription in favor of a small professional army. TERRIBLE PICTURE IS DRAWN OF CONDITIONS IN RUSSIA Washington.—David R. Francis, who went to Russia as American am­ bassador in 1316 before the over­ throw of the monarchy and who re­ mained there until after the bolshe- vists had seized the government, in testifying before the senate commit- fee investigating lawless propaganda, warned that should the bolshevists be permitted to remain in power all Rus­ sia would he exploited by the Ger­ mans. Within 10 years under such •■onditions. he said. Germany would *ie the victor of the war in that the nation would be stronger in every way Ihan it was in 1914. He painted a vivid picture of the terror that reigns and told of one in­ stance where the gutters from a court- vard in Petrograd actually ran with >'lood from the victims of the bol- ilievists. Many were killed without <iven charges being made against them and on several occasions, the ambassador aserted, wholesale kill­ ings were indulged in. He said more -Iian five hundred innocent hostages were killed at one time, and his ob­ servation of conditions and affairs in F.ussia led him to believe the bolshe- vists in their every-day practices com­ mitted excesses far beyond even the wildest dreams of anarchists. AMERICAN SHIPS NOW CARRY PRODUCTS TO END OF EARTH Washington.—For the. first time -■'nee the days of tlie famous “Clipper” ships, American merchant craft now are plying the seven seas, carrying nroducts of the United States to the farthest corners of the earth and ''ringing home both essentials and luxuries. The shinning board announced that the American merchant marine fleet, built up under the spur of war’s ne­ cessity, now represented nearly one- fifth of the entire sea-going tonnage of the world and comprised 46 per cent of all ships clearing'from United States ports, as compared with 9.7 •per cent before the great war. NO RADICAL CHANGES IN CONSTITUTION OF LEAGUE On Board U. S. S. George Washing­ ton.—The impression gathered by those who have come into contact with Presdent Wilson is that the op­ position which has developed to the league of nations covenant has not caused him to decide that any radical changes are necessary. I t is recog­ nized changes in phraseology and mi­ nor particulars are possible, but Pres­ ident Wilson is not looking for any fundamental alteration. RAILWAY SHOP EMPLOYES ASKING FOR HIGHER WAGES Washington. — Several hundred thousand ralroad shop emplioyes have asked the ralroad administration to increase their wages about 25 per cent. The board of railroad wages and working conditions has agreed tentatively to hear their case. The shop trade employes who were given one wage advance last year in addition to the general increaes in pay, now aslc that the basic rate per hour be changed from 68 to 85 cents. SERIOUS BREAK III SATISFACTION EXPRESSED BY HUN PAPERS IN COMMENTS ON THE SITUATION. Il BLOFF FOD BEnEIi TERMS Conditions in Central and Southern Germany in Respect to Food Are Not Bad If Correctly Reported. Weimar.—The negotiations concern­ ing shipping and food at Spa were ruptured with the support of the rep­ resentatives of the German shipping interests, including Director Heineken of the North German Lloyd, who de­ clared that if the Germans met the allied demands It would mean the ruin of German mercantile and sea trade interests. In commenting on the news, the Deutscheland expresses satisfaction with the attitude of the German rep­ resentatives and says that the Ger­ man people will endorse and support their attitude. Geneva.—While Germany has brok­ en off official relations with the allies at Spa over the question- of food sup­ plies, travelers arriving in Switzer­ land recently from across the Rhine report food conditions in central and southern Germany are not critical and do not demand immediate relief. The travelers say the statements of the German government are only a bluff in order to get better terms from the allie3. Travelers from Austria and Hun­ gary declare the populations there are really starving and need immediate help. These reports are confirmed by British and’ American commisions in these countries. NEUTRALITY OF BELGIUM WILL BE ELIMINATED Paris.—The report of the commis­ sion on Belgian affairs, charged with investigating the differences between Belgium and Holland,, was submitted to the Council of the five great powers It advises the three treaties of 1839, establishing the status o f. Belgium and Holland, be revised by the coun­ cil. as they are now “useless and dis­ advantageous to Belgium.” The proposed revision of the treat­ ies will restore . Belgium’s complete sovereignty and eliminate her neutral­ ity, which afforded no protection and is now distasteful. LAUDATION OF IRELAND BBY REPRESENTATIVE STEDMAN. Washington.—The Irish question has been bobbing up here now and then for several year£. The house finally adopted this resolution, which was advocated eloquently by Repres­ entative Stedman: “Resolved, That it is' the earnest hope of tjie Congre® of the United States of America that the neace con­ ference, now sitting in Paris, in pass­ ing upon the rights of various peoples, will favorably consider the claims of Treland to self determination." “For many years,” said Mr. Sted- man. “I have been interested in the future of the people of Ireland. I have been attracted to them by their love of liberty, by their attach­ ment to their homes, by their appeals for justice to this republic, whose friends they have ever been and whose theory of government, whose traditions, and whose declarations forbid' the exercise of sovereignty over a weaker nation against its will by armed force. London.—Notice has been given in the house of ■ commons of the inten­ tion of Ronald McNeill to ask the secretary of state for foreign affairs whether he has any official informa­ tion of the report of the resolution having been adopted by the American house of representatives on the sub­ ject of Ireland, and if so. will he make a formal protest against the interference of a foreign legislature in the domestic affairs of tlie United Kingdom. AUTHORS OF GREAT WAR ARE TO BE SEVERELY PUNISHED Paris.—While it is impossible to give any forecast of the terms of the report of the commission on responsi- btliyt for the war, which report is about completed, it may be said that those who have been urging that drastic action should be taken against the principal authors of Germany’s war crimes will not be disappointed in the conclusions of the commission. The report will inctide a general historical survey' of events. WILSDN AGAINST SINKING OF SURRENDERED SHIPS Washington.—President Wilson has written Representative Fuller, of Mas sachusetts, that lie opposed the sink­ ing of the surrendered German wir ships, but that his judgment was rot .final because he had not yet had the opportunity to discuss the mattej with authoritative -"aval men. The President’s letter said the pro posal to destroy the warships seemed, “like the counsel of those who cto noi know what else to <lo.” !EISA SIERII NECESSITY RENEWAL OF SPARTACISM HAS BEEN HERALDED BY A VIOL­ ENT OUTBREAK OF PRESS. E LEFT TO PIIBLET WFH Preliminary Terms of Peace Should Be Submitted to Germany By Last Week of March at 'Least. . Paris.—The news from Germany continues to become increasingly dis­ quieting and will, it is hoped, have the effect of speeding up the peace conference.. Of. course it has to be remembered that at each moment of crisis between the allies and Ger­ many, since the signature of the first armistice, the Germans have broken out in more or less spontaneous popu­ lar semi-bolshevist agitation. The renewal of Spartacism. on this occasion, has been heralded by a vio­ lent campaign of the press against the terms which the allies now have pre­ pared for inclusion in the preliminary peace treaty. How far the fresh dis­ turbance is prompted by the require­ ments of the German peace policy cannot, of course, be judged with any- degree of accuracy from Paris. But one thing is certain, that unless rapid steps are taken to supply Germany with food, on a larger scale than is at present be ini, done, there will be the risk that negotiators here may find there is non* left in Germany with whom to sign a binding peace. Apart froix. certain reservations of some importance, made by the Amer­ ican admiral 43 regards naval terms, there is coirplete agreement on the general terms of military, naval and aerial nature to be imposed on Ger­ many. Such being the case, in the opinion of Murshal Foch at any rate, the preliminary terms of peace ought to be communicated to Germany be­ fore the end of the month so that the Germany delegates may be atile to come to Versailles, if Versailles is the spot chosen for the meeting, on March 20 and so that the actual signa­ ture of peacu might be fixed for tlie beginning of April.

BANKERS TO ESTABLISH POOL TO FINANCE THE RAILROADS Washington. — Director General Hinies determined to call a conference of leading hankers and railway cor­ poration representatives in Washing­ ton to discuss possible solutions of the problem created by a failure of Congress to appropriate funds for tlie railroad administration. The persons to be invited have not yet been select­ ed. While regarding it as probable no definite decision would be reached at she conference, officials believed the meeting might result in further nego­ tiations with groups of bankers. Reports reached Washington that several bankers siftce adjournment of Congress had discussed the advisab- lIlty of establishing a bankers' dooI Co lend as much as $100,000,000 to rail­ road intei'ests. JUST CATS ARE SELLING IN RUSSIA AT THREE DOLLARS London.—Starvation prevails thru- out bolshevik Russia and is killing off the®population by thousands.

LEPERS S 006BT PROMOTION Immediate and Thorough Investiga­ tion is Made Because of Refer­ ences to Mens and Cambrai. Toronto.—AU Canadia has been stirred by charges made in the house of commons by Sir Sam Hughes, for­ mer minister of militia, that officers commanding the dominion's forces in France had needlessly sacrificed the lives of their men in order to advance themselves. Sir Sam opened his attack with the announcement he had protested sev­ eral times to Premier Borden “against the waste- of the Canadian boys’ lives in unnecessary stunts on the bat­ tlefields.” He then read a letter he had sent to Sir Robert protesting against* what he termed needless slaughter at Cambrai and stating he had drawn attention of the prime min­ ister on previous occasions to the “massacres at Lens, Passachendaele, etc., where the only apparent object was to glorify the general in com­ mand and make it impossible, through butchery, to have a fifth and sixth di­ vision and two army corps.” He declared any general-who would undertake the attack at Cambrai by suburban or street fighting should be court-martialed. The same was true, he said, of the officer who had order­ ed the storming of Mons four hours before the signing of the armistice. Some of the newspapers hint Sir Sam’s attack was inspired by chagrin at the faliure of his son. General Gar net Hughes, to get to France as the commander of a fifth brigade of Ca­ nadians. but all are unanimous in their assertion that the charges call for an immediate and thorough inves­ tigation. BITTER CONTROVERSY RAGED IN GOVERNORS' CONFERENCE Washington. — B.tter controversy raged in the conference of governors and mayors before the report of the committee on resolutions, making a great variety of recommendations on public questions, finally was adopted. Even after the viva voce vote dele­ gates from the west, led by Mayor Rolph, of San Francisco, attempted to force a record vote to show that they dissented from the majority, but were overruled by Secretary of Labor Wil­ son, who presided. Expressly disclaiming approval of fixing of costs, the resolutions sanc­ tioned government approval of price schedules as a step toward establish­ ing a new basis of values. Reduc­ tion of freight rates on all building material, especially road material, was suggested. It was declared reduction of wages should come, only as a re­ sult of reduced living costs. NEW CHINA WANTED, FREE OF ALIEN INTERFERENCE Paris.—There is going to be one of the liveliest sessions of the council of ten -when the Japanese claims to Tzingtao and the Pacific islands come up for formal consideratin. The del­ egation from Peking is ready to fight to the last against permitting.Japan to get away with -what the Chinese openly denounce as "aggressive im­ perialism.” Basing their attiVde on the Wil­ sonian idea of the league of nations, the Chinese del“gves make no score of their hope that out of the peace conference will come a new China, free of all alien into’-forance. Nor do they hesitate to aff-'rm that unless the far eastern nne«tion is solved ac- rording to the fundamental principle of the right of every ,nation to dispose of itself, then the hopes of preventing or minimizing the chance of future wars by the league of nations are il­ lusory. CHAMBlrR1-AIN SAVS C*?OWr>ER MADE FALSE STATEMENTS Washington.—Another chapter in the controversy between congress and rile war department over the gentry! nnestion of mil tan- instice was add­ ed by Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the military committee in the last ■senate, who issued a statement declar­ ing "erroneous and false” statements were contained in reply o f' Major General Crowder, judge advocate gen­ eral. to the senator’s address in the senate last December. PORK AND PORK PRODUCTS TAKEN OFr EXPORT LIST Washington.—Removal of pork and pork products from the export • con­ servation list was announced by the war -trade board, effective at once. At the same time the board rescinded the regulation by which all applica­ tions for licenses to export these commodities to European d-jstlnation were required to bear a certificate, from the food administration showing the administration had approved tlie sale price.

Need­ ham, liring near here, states: “When . . . began working on me I . . . sufCered a great deal. I had so much soreness and pain in the lower part of my body I could hardly get up when I was down. I would have severe pains, all across my back, and my sides hurt me nil the time. I would have headaches constantly, es­ pecially the back of my head and neck. I was almost discouraged with my condition when I thought of Car- dui, and decided to see what it would do. I saw an improvement at once after the first bottle. I kept it up and the result was wonderful. I took alto­ gether four bottles. I grew stronger, better appetite, less pain until I was well. I think Cardui is a God-send to suffering women, and I certainly can praise it, and do so.” For more than 40 years Cardui has been in general use and in that time thousands have written to tell us how it helped them back to health and strength.

But there was a greater one, although it seemed not so at the time of it. A' traveler on the road to BalIybeen bad dropped bis pocketbook containing a large amount of money— $2,700 was the sum, if I remember rightly. He was a man who, being justly suspicious of the banks, had witlidraivn his money. Posters an­ nounced tbe loss and the offer of a large reward. The village was pro­ foundly stirred by them. Searching parties went up the road stirring its dust and groping in its grass and bri­ ers for the great prize which was sup­ posed to be lying there. It was said, however, that the quest had been un­ successful. So the lost po.cketbook became a treasured mystery of the village and of all the hills and val­ leys toward Bailybeen—a topic of old wives and gabbling husbands at the fireside for unnumbered years. By and by the fall term of school ended. Uncle Peabody came down to get me the day before Christmas. I IiRd enjoyed my work and my life at the Haekets’, on the whole, but I was glad to be going home again. My uncle was in high spirits and there were many packages In the sleigh. “A merry Christmas to ye both an’ may the Lord love ye!” said Mr. Hacket as he bade us goodby. “Every day our thoughts will be going up the hills to your house.” The bells rang merrily as we hur­ ried through the swamp in the hard snow paths. “We’re goin’ to move,” said my uncle presently. “We’ve agreed to get out by the middle o’ May.” “How does that happen?” I asked. “I settled with Grimshaw and agreed to go. If it hadn’t ’a’ been for Wright and Baldwin we wouldn’t ’a’ got a cent. They threatened to bid against him at the sale. So he settled. We’re goin’ to have a new home. We’ve bought a hundred an’ fifty acres from Abe Leonard. Goin’ to build a new house in the spring. It will be nearer the village.” He playfully nudged my ribs with his elbow. “We’ve had a little good luck, Bart,” ho went on. “I’ll tell ye what it is if you won’t say anything about it.” I promised. “I dunno as it would matter much,” be continued, “but I don’t want to do any braggin’. It ain’t anybody’s busi­ ness, anyway. An old uncle over in Vermont died three weeks ago and left us thirty-eight hundred dollars. It was old Uncle Ezra Baynes o’ Hinesburg. Died without a chick or child. Your aunt and me slipped down to Potsdam an’ took the stage an’ went over an got the money. It was more money than I ever see before In my life. We put it In the bank in Potsdam to keep it out o’ Grimshaw’s bands. I wouldn’t trust that man as fur as you could throw a bull by the tail.” It was a cold, clear night, and when we reached home the new stove was snapping with the heat in its firebox and the pudding puffing In the pot and old Shep dreaming In the chimney corner. Aunt Deel gave me a hug at the door, Shep barked and leaped to my shoulders. “Why. Bart! You’re growin’ like a weed—ain’t ye?—ayes ye be.” my aunt said as she stood and looked at ir.e. “Set right down here an’ warm ye—ayes!—Pve done all the chores— ayes!” How warm and comfortable was the dear old room with those beloved faces In it. I wonder if paradise itself can seem more pleasant to me. I have had the best food this world can provide, in my time, but never anything that I ate with a keener relish than the pudding and milk and bread and but­ ter- and cheese and pumpkin pie which Aunt Deel gave us that night Supper over, I wiped the dishes for my aunt while Uncle Peabody went out to feed and water the horses. Then we sat down in the genial warmth while I told the story of my life in “the busy town,” as they called it What pride and attention they gave me then! My fine clothes and the story of how I had come by them taxed my inge­ nuity somewhat although not improp­ erly. I had to be careful not to let them know that I had been ashamed of the homemade suit They somehow felt the truth about it and a little silence followed the story. Then Aunt Deel drew her chair near me and touched my hair very gently and looked into my face without speaking. “Ayes! I know,” she said presently, In a kind of caressing tone, with a touch of sadness in it “They ain’t used to coarse homespun stuff down there In the -village. They made fun o’ ye—didn’t they, Bart?” "I don’t care about that,” I assured them. “ The mind’s the measure of the man,’ ” I quoted, remembering the Iinrc lie Senator had repeated to me. "That’s sound!” Uncle Peabody ex­ claimed with enthusiasm. Aunt Deel took my hand In hers and surveyed it thoughtfully for a moment without speaking. “You ain’t goin’ to have to suffer that way no more,” she said In a low tone. We’re goin’ to be more comf’ta- ble—ayes. Yer uncle thought we better go West, but I couldn’t bear to go off so fur an’ leave mother an’ father an’ sister Susan an’ all the folks we loved layin’ here in the ground alone—-I want to lay down with ’em by an’ by an’ wait for the sound o’ the trum­ pet—ayes!—mebbe it’ll be for thou­ sands o’ years—ayes!” To our astonishment the clock struck twelve. “Hurrah! It’s merry Christmas!” said Uncle Peabody as he jumped to his feet and began to sing of the little Lord Jesus. We joined him while he stood beat­ ing time with his right hand after the fashion of a singing master. “Off with yer boots, friend!” he ex­ claimed when the stanza was finished, “We don’t have to set up and watch like the shepherds.” We drew our boots on the chair round with hands clasped over the knee—how familiar is the process, and yet I haven’t seen it in more than half a century! I lighted a candle and scampered upstairs in my stocking feet, Uncle Peabody following close and slapping my thigh as if my pace were not fast enough for him. In the midst of our skylarking the candle tumbled to the floor and I had to go back to the stove and relight it How good it seemed to be back in the old room under the shingles! The heat of the stovepipe had warmed its hospitality. “It’s been kind o’ lonesome here,” said Uncle Peabody as he opened the window. “I always let the wind come In to keep me company—it gits so warm.” “Ye can’t look at yer stockin’ ylt, said Aunt Deel when I came down­ stairs about eight o’clock, having slept through chore time. I remember it was the delicious aroma of frying ham and buckwheat cokes which awoke me; and who wouldn’t rise and shake off the cloak of slumber on a bright, cold winter morning with such provo­ cation? “This ain’t no common Chris’njas— I tell ye,” Aunt Deel went on. “Santa Claus won’t git here short 0’ noon I wouldn’t wonder—ayes I” About eleven o’clock Uncle Hiram and Aunt Eliza and their five children arrived with loud and merry greetings. Then came other aunts and uncles and cousins. With what noisy good cheer the men entered the house after they bad put up their horses! I remember bow they laid their hard, heavy hands on my head and shook it a little as tbey spoke of my “stretchin’ up” or gave me a playful slap on the shoulder —an ancient token of good will—the first form of the accolade, I fancy. What joyful good humor there was in those simple men and women—enough to temper the woes of a city if it could have' been applied to their relief. They stood thick around the stove warming themselves and taking off its griddles and opening its doors and surveying it inside and out with much curiosity. "Now for the Christmas tree,” said Uncle Peabody as he led the way into our best room, where a fire was burn­ ing in the old Franklin grate. “Come on. boys an’ girls.” What a wonderful sight was the Christmas tree—the first we had had in our house—a fine spreading balsam loaded with presents! Uncle Hiram jumped into the air and clapped his feet together and shouted: “Hold me, somebody, or I’ll grab the hull tree an’ run away with it.” Uncle Jabez held one foot in both hands before him and joyfully hopped around the tree. These relatives had brought their family gifts, some days before, to be hung on its branches. The thing that caught my eye was a big silver watch hanging by a long golden chain to one of the boughs. Uncle Peabody took it down and lield it aloft by the chain, so that none should miss the sight, say­ ing: “From Santa Claus for Bart!” A murmur of admiration ran through the company which gathered around me as I held the treasure in my trem­ bling hands. “This is for Bart, too,” Uncle Pea­ body shouted as he took down a bolt of soft blue cloth and laid it In my arms. “Now there’s somethin’ that’s jest about as slick as a kitten’s ear. Feel of it. It’s tor a suit o’ clothes. Come all the way from Burlington. Now get-ap there. You’ve got your load.” I moved out of the way in a hurri­ cane of merriment. It was his one great day of pride and vanity. He did not try to conceal them. The other presents floated for a mo­ ment in this irresistible tide ot laugh­ ing good will aud found their owners. I have never forgotten how Uncie Ja- bez chased Aunt Minerva around the house with a wooden snake cunningly carved and colored. I observed there were many things on the tree which had not been taken down when we younger ftaes gathered up our . wealth and repaired to Aunt Deel’s room to feast our eyes upon it and compare our good fortune. The women and the big girls rolled up their sleeves and went to work with Aunt Deel preparing the dinner. The great turkey and the chicken pie were made ready and put in the oven and the potatoes and the onions and the winter squash were soon boiling in their pots on the stovetop. Mean­ while the- children were playing In my aunt’s bedroom and Uncle Hiram and Uncle Jabez were pulling sticks in a corner while the other men sat tipped against the wall watching and making playful comments—all save my Uncle Peabody, who was trying to touch his head to the floor and then straighten up with the aid of the broomstick. In the midst of it Aunt Deel opened the front door and old Kate, the Silent Woman, entered. To my surprise, she wore a decent-looking dress of gray homespun cloth and a white cloud looped over her head and ears and tied around her neck and a good pair of boots. “Merry Chris’mas!” we all shouted. She smiled and nodded iter head and sat down In the chair which Uncle Pea­ body had placed for her at the stove side. Aunt Deel took the cloud off her head while Kate drew her mittens —newly knitted of the best yarn. Then my aunt brought some stockings and a shawl from the tree and laid them on the lap of old Kate. What a silence fell upon us as we saw tears coursing down the cheeks of this lonely old -woman of the countryside—tears of joy, doubtless, for God knows how long it bad been since the poor, abandoned soul had seen a merry Christmas and shared its kindness. I did not fail to observe how clean her face and bands looked! She was greatly changed. She took my band as I went to her side and tenderly caressed it. A gen­ tler smile came to her face, than ever I had seen upon it. The old stern look returned for a moment as she held one finger aloft in a gesture which only I and my Aunt Deel understood. We knew it signalized a peril and a mys­ tery. That I should have to meet it, scmewhere up the hidden pathway, I bad no doubt whatever. “Dinner’s ready!” exclaimed the cheerful voice of Aunt Deel. Then what a stirring of chairs and feet as we sat down at the table. Old “From Santa Claus for Bart!" Kate sat by the side of my aunt and we were all surprised at her good man­ ners. We jested and laughed and drank cider and reviewed the year’s history and ate as only they may eat who have big bones and muscles and the vitality of oxen. I never taste the flavor of sage and currant jelly or hear a hearty laugh without thinking of those holi­ day dinners in the old log bouse on Battleroad. That Christmas brought me nothing better than those words, the memory of which is one of the tallest towers in that long avenue of my past down which I have been looking these many days. About all you can do for a boy, worth while,'is to give him something good to remember. The day had turned dark. The tem­ perature had risen and the air was dank and chilly. The men began to hitch up their horses. So, one by one, the sleighloads left us with cheery good-bys and a grind­ ing of runners and a-jingling of bells. When the last had gone Uncle Pea­ body and I went Into the house. Aunt Deel sat by the stove, old Kate by the window looking out at the falling dusk. How still the house seemed! “There’s one thing I forgot,”-1 said as, I proudly took out of my wallet the six one-dollar bills which I had earned by working Saturdays and handed three of them to my aunt and three to my uncle, saying: “That is my Christmas present to you. I earned it myself/’ I remember so well, their astonish­ ment and the trembling of their hands and the look of their faces. “It’s grand—ayes!” Aunt Deel said in a low tone. She rose in a moment and beckoned to me and my unde. We followed her through the open door to the other room.- ‘Til tell ye what Pd do,” she whis­ pered. “I’d give ’em to ol’ Kate— ayes! SheVgoin’ to stay with us till tomorrow.” : “Good idee!” said Uncie Peabodi So I took the money out_ of theii hands and went in and gave it to the Silent Woman. “That’s your present from 1 said. How can I forget how she held my arm against her with that loving, fa miliar, rocking motion "of a woman who is soothing a baby at her breast and kissed my coat sleeve? She re­ leased my arm and, turning to the v, At- dow, leaned her head upon i‘« sill and shook with sobs. The dusk han ened. As I returned to my seat by the stove I could dimly see her form against the Ught of the window. We sat in silenfce for a ,little while. Then Uncle Peabody rose and got a candle and lighted it at the hearth. I held the lantern while Uncle Pea­ body fed the sheep and the two cows and milked—a slight chore these win- tei days. “You and I are to go off to bed purty early,” he said as we were going back to the house. “Yer Aunt Deel wants to see Kate alone and git her to talk if she can. “I dunno but she’ll swing back into this world ag’in,” said Uncle Peabody when we had gone up to our Uttle room. “I guess all she needs is to be treated Uke a human bein’. Yer Aunt Deel an’ I couldn’t git over thlnkin’ o’ what she'done for you that night in the ol’ bam. Scr I took some o’ yer aupt’s good clothes to her an’ a pair o’ 'boots an’ asked her to come to Chris’mas. She lives in a little room over the blacksmith shop down to But­ terfield’s miU. I told her I’d come after her with the cutter but she shook her head. I knew she’d rather walk.” He was yawning as he spoke and soon we were both asleep under the shingles. CHAPTER XII. The Thing and Other Things. I returned to Mr. Hacket’s houst late in the afternoon of New Year’s day. The schoolmaster was lying on i big lounge in a corner of their front room with the children about him. The dusk was falling. “Welcome, my laddie buck!” he ex­ claimed as I entered., “We’re telling stories o’ the old year an’ you’re just In time for the last o’ them. Sit down, lad, and God give.ye patience! It’U soon be over.” After supper he got out his boxing gloves and gave me a lesson in the art of self-defense, in which, I was soon tc- learn, he was highly accomplished, for we had a few rounds together every day after that. He keenly en­ joyed this form of. exercise and I soon began to. My capacity for taking pun­ ishment without flinching grew apace and before long I got the knack of countering and that pleased him more even than my work in school, I havo sometimes thought. “God bless ye, boy!” he exclaimed one day after I had landed heavily on his cheek, “ye’ve a nice way o’ sneakin’ In with yer right. .I’ve a notion ye may find 'it useful some day.” I wondered a little why he should say that, and while I was wondering he felled me with a stinging blow on my nose. “Ah, my lad—there’s the best thing I have seen ye do—get up an’ come back with no mad in ye,” he said as he gave me his hand. One day the schoolmaster called the older boys to the front seats In his room and I among them. “Now, boys, I’m going to ask ye what ye want to do in tbe world,” he said. “Don’t be afraid to tell me what ye- may never have told before and I’ll dc- what I can to help je.” For some months I had been-study­ ing a book just published, entitled, “Stenographic Sound-Hand,” and had learned its alphabet and practiced the use of it. That evening I took down the remarks of Mr. Hacket in sound- hand. The academy chapel was crowded with the older boys and girls, and the tcwnfolk. The master never clipped his words In school as he was wont to do when talking familiarly with the, -children. “Since the leaves fell our little vil­ lage has occupied the center of the stage before an audience of millions In the great theater of congress. Our leading citizen—the chief actor—has been crowned with immortal fame. We who watched the play were thrilled by the query: Will Uncle Sam yield to temptation or cling to honor? He has chosen the latter course and we may still hear the applause in distant gal­ leries beyond the sea. He has' decided that the public revenues must be paid in honest money. “My friend and classmate, George Bancroft, the historian, has written this letter to me out of a full heart. (TO B E CONTINUED.) Poor Widow Gives Mite. They were only four sacks, washed and pieced together by patient fingers and then fashioned into undergar­ ments. Around the neck of each was a crocheted edge made from the string with which the sacks had bee* sewed. A poorly dressed woman brought them l.ito the department of refuge clothing of the Red Cross as her “widow’s mite.” “It isn’t much,” she said, as she un­ did the bundle, “but it is ail I had, and I hope it will be of use to some Bel­ gian woman who may have less than I have.” Dunner und Blitzen.

D. It is almost impossible to give a list of the endless diseases that follow indigestion. Perhaps a whole column in this newspa­ per would be required to print them all. You eat to keep alive—to, supply blood and flesh and hone and muscle and brain, it is easy to see that if your food is not di­ gested and taken up by the delicate or­ gans and distributed where it is needed, a disease of some iort is sure to come. Dys­ pepsia is a common symptom, and so are liver complaint, loss of flesh, nervousness, bad memory, dizziness, sleeplessness, no appetite. Many times, when neglected, in­ digestion results in coughs, throat diseases, catarrh, bronchitis and even-more danger­ ous things. And all these disorders arise because the food is not properly digested in the stomach. It is plain even to a child that relief and cure are to be had only by setting up a healthy condition in the stomach. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., many years ago combined a number of vegetable growths into a temperance remedy for indigestion, and called it Golden Medical Discovery. It is probably the most efficacious discovery ever made in medicine, for the list of people all over the world who have had their countless ills overcome by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medierd Discovery makes an amazing total of thou­sands. I know of no advice better than this: Begin a home treatment today with this good vegetable medicine. It will show you better than I can tell you what it wiii do. When taking Golden Medical Dis­ covery, you can rest assured of one very important thing—it contains neither alco­ hol nor opiates: There is nothing in it but standard roots and herbs that possess curative properties of a high order. A safe medicine is the only kind you can afford to take.

You can turn gray, faded hair beau­ tifully dark and lustrous almost over night if you’ll get a bottle of “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound” at any drug store. JUUions of bottles of this old famous Sage Tea Recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients, are sold annually, says a well-known druggist here, because it darkens the hair so naturally and evenly that no one can tell it has been applied. Those whose hair is turning gray or becoming" faded have a surprise await­ ing them, because after one or two applications the gray hair vanishes and your locks, become luxuriantly dark .and beautiful. This is the age of youth. Gray- haired, unattractive folks aren’t wanted around, so get busy with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound to-night and you’ll be delighted with your dark, handsome hair and your youthful appearance within a few days.—Adv.

Feb. 28.—The senate passed the Brown hill for calling a constitutional convention, the vote being unanimous, and then after discussion passed on both second and third readings, by roll call vote, the Doughton bill from the house for an Income amendment to the constitution. The house had a long discussion of the McCoin-JIull road bill and the Stacy substitute fi'om the senate of­ fered by Representative Poole as a substitute for the house bill and then took recess to 7:30 to take a soon start for threshing out the differences among members ah to this road legis­ lation. ■ Senator Gray offered in the senate and Representative Doughton in the house the Gray-Doughton bill that has the unanimous indorsement of the joint finance committee for making a full-value assessment of all real estate in North Carolina this year and calling a special session of the legis­ lature in May or June next for fixing a lower tax rate that will correspond with the increased assessments. Senate. March I.—The Senate worked in serious fashion for four hours and sent through a mass of legislation, most of it of little public importance. The bill guaranteeing to teachers a minimum salary to teachers and pro­ viding a county budget system, which was passed by the House by a unani­ mous vote, went through the Senate with but one negative vote. Senator Haymore saw danger to local self government in haying salaries fixed in Raleigh and opposed the adoption of the measure. rfouce. Ten Republicans and eight Demo­ crats voted in favor of the bill to pre­ vent railroads from employing illiter­ ate trainmen, which came to the floor on a minority report signed by Mr. Williams and advocated by himself and Poole, of Montgomery. This bill, defeated by a vote of 52 to 18, evoked the rankest floor discussion the House has witnessed, with J. Frank Ray bit­ terly attacking the bill and assailing the motive behind the insistence that took the bill away from a 20 to I un­ favorable report and placed it before the House for discussion. During his assault on the bill he thundered at Poole: “Sit down, I don’t want to hear from yon!” When Mr. Williams asked him if he wasn’t himself a railroad attorney, he dubbed the minority leader “a chicken headed whipper snapper.” Senate and House. March 3.—Governor Bickett went before a joint session of the senate and house to plead for the enactment, of the Mull-McCoin state highway bill in preference to any other road meas­ ure pending. He declared against any road bond issue by the state at this time, ln«>*tinR that the people should be heard before such a step is taken. The senate passed a committee substitute for the Wright resolution, introduced the second day of the ses­ sion. for an investigation of fire in­ surance rates in North Carolina. The senate passed the Humphrey- Stevens bill to restrict the sale of revolvers, knucks and daggers and the like, by requiring would-be pur­ chasers to have a permit from the clerk of the county court. The house was in committee of the whole in the afternoon until 7 o’clock, threshing out the differences among members as to the state-wide road legislation pending, the net outcome being that the Stacey substitute for the Scales-Stevens bill from the sen. Hot Indictment of Apex. “A section where blockade whiskey distilled night and day; where it is retailed and wholesaled, to be distrib­ uted in Raleigh and Durham principal­ ly; where drunken crowds revel in autos week days and Sundays; where scenes bordering on rioting have stir­ red the law-abiding people into pas­ sionate appeals for relief through the courts.” Thus Apex, a town in the western part of Wake county, less than 20 miles of the Capital of North Carolina, was pictured in Superion Court at the trial of Joe Baldwin. Extends Time for Making Return*. On account of unavoidable delays In forms and regulations and great anxiety among taxpayers, the Bureau of Internal Revenue has decided that collectors will accept as sufficient rea­ son for extending for 45 days time for filing complete income tax and excess profits returns of individuals and- cor­ porations the statement that the tax­ payer is unable by March 15 to execute and file complete return, provided in every case the taxpayer pays on or before March 15 at least 25 per cent ,f estimated amount of tax due. - ate was rejected and the Redwine bill was adopted. This is based strictly on the county basis, in that it provides that all auto­ mobile license taxes shall go back to the counties from which it comes except 10 per cent as cost of collec­ tion. Then the county meets the fed- eral-aid terms with the co-operation of the state highway commission on a fifty-fifty basis. House. March 4.—The PharrjMatthews of Bertie, statewide road bill for avail­ ing the state of the full federal aid in highway construction, was adopted by the house as a substitute for the Redwine bill that had been adopted, in committee of the whole, and then a duplicate of the Pbarr-Matthews bill that had been introduced, was given second reading to give the measure that much further start in its passage, being a roll call measure that must have three separate readings in each house. Senate and House. March 5.—The house took up the Bryant school board bill as a special order today and passed it by a large majority. Under the bill about 25 counties will have three Democratic and two Republican members and the other two Democrats and one Repub­ lican to be appointed by the legisla­ ture, the right to elect being taken from the six counties that have for some time held the privilege of elec­ tions. In passing the senate bill for state system of cotton storage warehouses on final reading today, the house vot­ ed down an amendment offered by Poole, of Montgomery, for limiting the 25 cents a bale tax to the cotton stor­ ed, instead of applying it to all cot­ ton baled. The amendment was voted down after an appeal against the amendment by Grant, of New Han­ over, the purpose of the measure be­ ing to maintain cotton prices by grad­ ual marketing, so all cotton should share the tax. Senator Lovell offered in the sen­ ate the Confederate pension bill, car­ rying $650,000 instead of the $500,000 heretofore provided for the old sol­ diers. The bill was given immediate passage and sent by special messen­ ger to the house. It develops that about $750,000 will be available for pensions annually under the iLev ap­ propriations bill. Representative Grant, of New Han­ over, closed the argument in the house on the issue of suffrage for women in municipal elections. It was the Everett bill that was up as a spe­ cial order and Grant’s was a really forceful and eloquent presentation of man’s self-constituted lordship of all things, including woman, and declara­ tion of what he conceived to be. her equal right to a voice in governmental affairs, particularly the modest share of vote in municipal elections as pro­ vided In the bill. However, the majority was dead against the measure and the roll call vote showed 49 for and 54 against. Senate and House. .March 6.—A heroic effort is being made to reach some definite settle­ ment of the differences as to state­ wide road legislation for federal aid. and Senator Stevens submitted a res­ olution providing that the legislature remain in session 10 days over time if necessary to secure adequate road leg­ islation. Be urged immediate adop­ tion, but the measure went over with the expectation that there would bo definite developments then that -would indicate the time necessary for per­ fecting an acceptable road bill. The house passed without a dissent­ ing vote the bill for a complete re­ valuation of all real properties in the state at actual money value, this work to be acconml'sbed during (be next year under the direction of the state tax commissior- and to take the r-i-ca of the regular quadrennial revaluation that was scheduled for the coming summer. The senate passed a bill to prohibit telephone companies front converting intra-state messages into interstate messages; also a bill to prevent school teachers from infecting pupils with tuberculosis. The senate decided not to ,further consider the Connor bill for election of a woman suffrage amendment to the constitution, since the house voted down the Everett bill to give women the right to vote in municipal elec­ tions. Next the house took up the Neal child labor bill and. after a brief dis­ cussion, It received the unanimous To Borrow Only $1,000,000. By making available the remaining amounts of the three million dollar is­ sues of two years ago, it is believed that the State can get along for the next two years for permanent improve­ ments by borrowing only a million dollars. It is thought best to borrow this on short-time notes, so that if a surplus arises some of the money can be paid back without issuing bonds. This was the report of the sub-com­ mittee of the joint appropriations com­ mittee and it was approved by the en­ tire committee. Bellamy Has No Plans. When Marshal Bellamy assumes of­ fice, one of the first things to receive his attention will be the appointment of a chief deputy. Department of Jus­ tice officials, in approving Mr. Bel­ lamy’s nomination, requested in*: W. T. Woodley, now acting Unfted States marshal and former chief deputy to the late W. T. Dortch, be retained as chief deputy under the new marshal. Mr. Woodley, however, has other plans. Mr. Bellamy made known no plans in regard to the selection of his office personnel. * W ho B enefits By H ig h P rices? You feel that retail meat prices are too high.

My head ached and I was so dizzy I almost fell and spots float­ ed before my eyes. The different medi­ cines I took gave me no relief and finally I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills.

The object of tliis course, now being tried out In New York City, is to place domestic service on the same dignified basis as clerical work, trained nursing or other professions open to women. The home assistant will work eight hours a day for a salary of $15 a week. She will not live In the home of her employer or take her meals there. She will have an hour for luncheon, when she can go to a restaurant or eat a lunch which she has brought with her just as she would were she employed In a factory. The employer will not address the home worker by her first name. She wUl be Miss Smith or Mrs. Brown, as the case may be. Applicants for the course are care­ fully selected, and registrants are ap­ pearing in large numbers. With the same independence as to recreation hours, places of eating and living as the factory girl, honse-work has a greater appeal, as being a less monoto­ nous and more interesting work to the average woman. .The course is a thorough one in plain cooking, waiting on' table and door, chamber work, plain sewing, care of children, making of menus and the washing and Ironing of light things. Heavy work is to be done by outside workers. On graduation the student receives a certificate which proves her qualification as a dependable home worker capable of attending to all ordi­ nary duties in a home. The Young Women’s Christian Asso­ ciation has been interested in the prob­ lem of domestic service both from the standpoint of the employee and from that of the employer for some years. The first commission on Household Employment made its report at the fifth national convention of the Young Women’s Christian Association held In Los Angeles, Cal., in May, 1915. The difficulties of attracting capable women to this field of work were laid to the long hours, lack of independence In arranging recreation hours,'lade of opportunities for growth and progress and lack of social standing. Girls have acquired a distaste for the conditions which govern household work since the freedom they have ex­ perienced in WrOrking in munition fac­ tories. By standardizing domestic serv­ ice it Is believed by the Young Wo­ men’s Christian Association that a higher type of worker may be at­ tracted to the necessary work In homes. WOMEN LEARNING MASSAGE. Germantown Y. VV. C. A. Trains Wom­ en for Reconstruction Work Among Soldiers. Educational courses to prepare wom­ en as aides In the rehabilitation of wounded soldiers have been opened at the Germantown, Pa., Young Women's Christian Association.

How old musfcone be before he, or she can run an automobile! And whose duty is it to know, and to enforce the law! A Citizen. The speed law has no lim it any more. One can run 90 miles an hour, if he will swear it was only 10. As to the age, that depends on whose boy or girl it is. and the kind of car it is. And for two or three years, it has been Mr. Hobody’s duty to en force the law, but he, poor fellow, died about the time the war broke in.—Ex. Has Had Stomach Trouble For Seven Years.

Then what party was it just before we entered the war, that made a campaign on the issue ot “ kept ns out of war!” .: W hat party was it whose leader declared that with the causes oI the war we had nothing to do! . W hat party was it whose leader declared that America was too proud to fight! W bat party was it that refused to prepare before we entered the war, dallied with preparedness al­ ter we entered the war and excused the delay by saying that the war was 3,000 miles away! W hat party was it whose special Iy chosen publicity agent declareu that he thanked God we entered the war uuprepared! W hat party was it that furnish ed the smaller proportion ot votes for war measures, leaving the Be- publicaus iu the house the task of leading the fight for essential war legislation! If the times thinks, after review­ ing the record, that the Republican party before we entered the war “ eaten up with pacifism,” what was the condition of the Democrat­ ic party to which the times has so consistently gii en its support! “ Falling asunder morally,” in­ deed! W hat party was it that broke every important promise it made in the campaign of 1913 be fore it entered the campaign oi 1916, and then diverted attention from its dishonesty I y- presenting the false and known to-be fa'se is­ sue of “ kept us out of war!” W bat party was it that imposed taxes inequitably distributed! W hat parly was it that sqiian dered the public funds in reward ing “ deserving Democrats” by ap­ pointment to positions for which they had no. qualification! W hat party was it that destroyd the merit system in the civil ser. vice! W hat party was it whose spine was so weak that it yielded with shameful pliancy when the four brotherhoods threatened to- ruin the nation with a railroad strike! W hat party was it that changed its mind at the ever changing mood of the most vacillating and uncer­ tain leader that ever occupied the W hite Hoqse! .Will the New York Times re­ view the records of the two lead-, ing parties of the United States and point out the particulars in which the BepuhIicau party has ever shown itHelf to be “ fallng as­ under morally” or “ eaten up with pacifism” or “ lacking a spine!” — Minneapolis Tribune.

They have done wonderful things FuiugB more hnman-iike than are manifested in the lives of many people. They generally are grate­ ful and true creatures. A t all times and under all conditions aud treatment, they will suffer and ev eu die by ahd for their raa9ter8. And generally speaking, they love children. They have served their masters and the public'as messengers aud even dray boys. In the cold reg ions they have served them as horses, pulling them in snow and on ice while traveling and laying with aud keeping them warm while sleeping. They have beeD used as guards in the night and in hunting all kinds of game. Not only that, but have been used as spies and detectives iu locating and catching traitors and crimi­ nals. They have actually been the saviors ot lost children. There are all kinds of dog's— guard dogs, rabbit dogs, ’possum dogs, squirrel dogs, fox dogs, sheep dogs, egg dogs, poodle dogs, etc. Like people, there are all kindB or«SKdogs—good ones and bad ones, ow' ing to the breed, and early train iug. But in the bible. very littlegood is found about dogs. In one place, the Bible says a dog is aD abomi­ nation unto the Lord. In one place it speaks of them as shepherd dogs. Infcw ophicesittells about dogs licking up human blood. In one pla.:t it t>!In about them lick mg human sores. In two places it cells al.out. them eating their own vomit The gray hound is mention­ ed once. 'In the other eight places in the Bible where mentioned, the name dog. is used as an epithet oi contc-ipt. Ii ii eo used today — Hickory Times Mercury.

Realizing, as all urban garden­ ers do, the impossibility of getting the garden patch plowed at the right time and in the right way, and the excessive cost of the work a citizen of Gieensboro asks that the municipality furnish a mule for garden plowing. Much can be said in behalf of the municipal mule for the gardeners, and one who wants his garden plowed can easily find that such a fixture Is a necessary part of the municipal machinery. But the mistake of the Greensboro man is in not call­ ing on Uncle Sam. He should wire Senators Simmons and Over man and follow this up by send- iug a delegation to Washington to urge the government to send mules ahd men to plow our gardens Uncle 3am is always calling on us to plant gardens.

Bepreseotative John Jacob Bog ers, a Republican, of Massacbu setts, performed a valuable public ervice recently by calling atten tiou to the fact that a deserving Democrat has been drawing down t salary for the past two years as minister from the Uuited States Co one of the pan American -Re publics but has spent the entire two years enjoying life at his home >n North Carolina. Democrats in Congress disputed the statement tnd one of them was so sure of !re­ position that he said that if the facts were as stated, the officials responsible for the payment of the ‘alary should be impeached Later.

Among the bills that are of interest to the citizens of Davie county are the following: A bill to allow the county commis sioners to issue $100,000 in bonds to build roads in the county, and also allowing a special tax to be collect, ud to maintain said roads, A bill to raise the salaries of the Sheriff, Register of Deeds and Clerk of the Court. The Register’s salary is raised to $1,500, the Clerk’s to $1,200 and the Sheriff is to receive $2,000, together with all fees for serving papers and is allowed $600 for a deputy.

S.” TafL Springfield Republican. Mr. Taft’s circle of friends is rap­ idly widening. No one can accuse J)im of selfish motives in his stand in favor of the league of nations, while everybody admires his willingness ,to uphold even a Democratic president as against the tendencies of the lead­ ership of his own party in the Sen­ ate. The country owes a debt of gratitude to Mr. Taft for his splen­ did conduct in the present crisis, for it is due largely to him that party lines have not thus far been sharply drawn on the issue of the league of nations. Mr. Mann, who was still the Republican leader in the house on Tuesday, made a notable address sustaining the democratic president in this matter, but Mr. Mann’s in­ fluence is not comparable, with Mr. Taft’s. Fur the sake of nonpartisan­ ship, it ii to be hoped that those democratic senators who have been fighting the league will keep right on. With the Democratic senators, Thomas and Reed, joining th e. Re­ publican senators, Poindexter and Borah in speaking campaign. Repub. Iicans over the country will be con­ stantly reminded that they are not called upon to oppose the league simply because a democratic admin­ istration is behind it. "W. S. S.” As Editor Johnson Sees It. The man who sows plant beds these bright days and dreams of 30-cent tobacco is not necessarily a wise man. They say the prevailing price last Saturday night was around $3 50 a pint and that the supplv was almost unlimited and the quality not so bad. So long as it takes the courts two weeks to try a lyncher and then fif­ teen minutes to let him out on bond after he is convicted and sentenced we may expect to have lynch law. Strange times these. They have gone and made a law at Raleigh and the man who goes and sells his girl calf in the future will take chances with a conviction in the courts. “W. S. S.” Take 25 Years to Pay Debt. It will cost the American people about $1,200,000,000 a year for the next > 5 years to pay off the war debt according to estimate^ of the treas­ ury, based on incomplete knowledge of precisely what the final war debt will be. This calculation is made on the assumption that the net war debt, with deductions for loan to the allies, will be in the neighborhood of $18,000,000,000 Interest on this amount at the rate of 44 per cent would be $765,000,000 a year, to -be raised by taxes, and then repaid to bond holders. In addition, about $417,000,000 would have to be pro­ vided every year as a sinking fund to redeem all bonds in 25 years.—Ex “W. S. S.” A Costly Promise. It will cost American bread eaters ten dollars each next year to keep promise. Uncle Sam said the farmers should get two dollars and twenty-six cents a bushel for wheat raised in 1919, and they will get it. Of course Europe will refuse to bay our several hundred million sur­ plus bushels at that high figure Re­ sult:— A French housekeeper buys bread for less money than a U. S. house­ keeper, who can throw a stone into tbe wheat field from which London imported its loaf.—Gerard, in Phila delphia Press. “W. S. S.” Let Us See. It is argued that those who oppose the, league are offering the world another great war. They are, eh! If the other nations want war, we don’t have to enter it too, do we? Why of course not. In the last campaign, the mean na­ tions over seas were in war. Didn’t have any more sense and pride than to be fighting, we were told. We were also told that if we voted for Hughes, would get this nation into it too. The same fellows said, vote for Wilson, for he had and would continue to keep us out of that fool mess. Did he? If not, why not? If he couldn’t keep this one peaceable na­ tion out of a war three thousand miles away, how in thunder can he keep forty or fifty nations out of I war? He and his league and no one else can, that’s all and he knows' it. The Bible says wars will be to the end of time, and .we have sense enough to oelieve what it says, the! world, the fllesh and the devil to the contrary, notwithstanding.—Hick­ ory Mercury. “W. 8.

SYMPATHY WITH NEW ILES Revaluation Machinery Act, Complete Abandonment of a Standard That Was Hoary With Age. n. *1'—" An insPiring -record"* is the suggestive caption that Governor Bickett gives a special summarv of important legislation that he prepar­ ed for the newspapers of the State, as reviewing the work of the 1019 legislature, just adjourned. He says that “its record will declare its glory” was the way he expressed his faith in this assembly in his message at the opening of the session and he is deeply grateful that its work had jus­ tified his “confession of faith.” The governor reviews the legisla­ tion of the session in a most gratified vein, beginning with the petition far a league of nations, ratification of the national prohibition amendment to the constitution ;and in taxation, ed­ ucation, ■ health and all -the other ave­ nues of legislative contact with the people, stressing especially the school, good roads, and health legisla­ tion. The Governor’s summary fol­ lows : The closing sentence of my biennial message to the general assembly of 1919 is: "My prayer to God' is. and my faith is that when the. general as­ sembly of 1919 shall pass into his­ tory its record will declare its glory.” I am deeply grateful that the work of the general assembly justifies the above confession of faith. It is not a perfect record. A careful reading of The Journal will disclose errors at. commission, but: viewed in its entire­ ty. it is an inspiring record. In the very beginning the general Tssembly evidenced its sympathy witfi “the new tides running in the hearts of men.” The general assembly of North Carolina enjoys the noble dis­ tinction of being the very first in the Union to petition the American peace commissioners in Paris to incorporate in the treaty of peace a league of nations that will deliver the world forever from the burdens and horrors of war. The general assembly promptly' rat­ ified the federal prohibition amend­ ment, and thus aided in cutting out of our social and political life the most fruitful source of poverty, dis­ ease and* crime.

(2) The income tax amendment to the constitution will enable the State to derive a reasonable avenue from sources well able to pay it, and will wipe out the discrimination now practiced against the man who earns a small income in favor of the man who collects a large one, and will make it possible for a succeeding gen­ eral assembly to write a model tax law under which it will be unneces­ sary for the State ttf levy an ad valorem tax on real or personal prop­ erty, but can leave all of this to the counties and towns. (3) The revaluation machinery act marks the high tide in sane and pro­ gressive tax legislation in North Car­ olina. It is a complete abandonment of a standard, hoary with age and iniquity, and the establishment of a new standard of tnth and justice. I am well within the hounds of conser­ vative statement in saying that the fixed purpose of the general assembly to make all men come clean to the tax books iVill add more to the moral and material welfare of our people than all the tax laws that have been writ­ ten in North Carolina since Virginia Dare first saw the light on Roanoke island. Education. It was a monumental achievement to get the people of North Carolina to insert in the organic law of the State a mandate that every child shall have a chance to go to school six months in the year. But it was a more difficult task to frame a wise and just law to carry out this con­ stitutional mandate. TJiis task has been accomplished so well that when the measure was fully explained many who “came to scoff remained-to pray.” In the beginning- there seemed to be a hopeless division of opinion, but when the light was turned on these differences disappeared and practical- Iv all men of all parties now confess that the law as wrtue.i us the verj best that can be devised under tLe conditions that obtain. Last year the average teacher re­ ceived a salary of $45 a month, and was employed four months in Uie year. Under a minimum wage law enactcd by this general assembly the average teacher will receive approx­ imately $65 a month for a minimum term of six months. ■ The law requiring every child under fourteen years of age to go to school during the entire term of the public school in the district in which the child resides, and providing for the rigid enforcement of this law through a system ' of juvenile courts, gives North Carolina a compulsory school law that ranks jvith that of any State in the Union. Health. The general assembly made tremen­ dous strides in health ieg'slation. The steps taken for the protection of the health of this and future genera­ tions in themselves abundantly justify the existence of the present session of the geneVaI assembly. In my opinion the most important and the most advanced step taken in the domain of- health laws is the statute that gives authority to the medical staffs of our penal and char­ itable institutions to perform opera­ tions on inmates of these institutions that will make it impossible for in­ curable lunatics and imbeciles to “multiply and replenish the earth.” The law ,carefully safeguards the pa­ tients and these operations can be performed only when in the judgment ofthe medical staff they will redound to the benefit of the patients. The act that calls for the regular examination of every child who at­ tends a public school in order to as­ certain the existence of either physi- cal or mentaL defects and the appro­ priation of $50,000 per annum to coix rect these defects in indigent children breaks new ground in this field or legislation. This law is bottomed on the sound principle that Christitiu civilization cannot allow a child to stagger through life under the handi­ cap of a curable physical or mental defect simply because the parents, of that child may be stricken with pov­ erty. A series of acts was passed for the purpose of co-operating with th« federal government in the suppression of vice and the prevention of dis­ eases incident to vice. These meas­ ures are as follows: The education of the public by suit­ able means regarding fhe catisc and prevention of unhygienic sex life and venereal diseases. The furnishing of free salvarsan, the specific for syphilis, for the treat­ ment of all syphilitics of the State, and making provision throughout the State for free treatment of persons diseased with gonorrhoea, and syph­ ilis, in order that these diseases may not be transmitted to others. Social Welfare. For the first time in the history of the State we now have the machinery for a unified State and county system of social welfare work. The state board of charities and public welfare, which has oversight over the state’s charitable and penal institutions, has been given the right to appoint three persons in each 6-^unty to act os a local welfare board and to advise with the local authorities on all mat­ ters pertaining to local conditions. In addition to this the leeislature made it the duty of the board of edu­ cation and the county commissioners in each county to elect, not later than July 15 next, a county superintendent of public welfare, who shall be an of­ ficer trained th all matters pertain­ ing to constructive social work.- This officer will be the chief school attend­ ance officer and the chief probation officer of the county, charged espec­ ially with the duty of looking after delinquent and neglected children. His position is made to fit in with the compulsary attendance law and the new juvenile court law. Good Roads. The general assembly did good work in public road legislation: The road act passed by the general assembly for the purpose of meeting the I-Cquirements for obtaining aid from the federal government is not a perfect piece of legislation. It does not represent the views of any one member of the general assembly, but In the hands of a wise and fair com­ mission it can. he made the instru­ ment of great good In the State. The work of the appropriation committee reflects great credit upon the intelli­ gence and patriotism of that commit- tee*The Warehouse Act. This act is- designed to benefit the cotton growers of the State. Tt was passed upon the earnest insistence of those most deeply interested m the welfare of cotton growers. I hone that much good will result from the act hut I frankly confess that m my opinion the only way the cotton grow­ er can win'in his perpetualI w-r w.th WqIl street is to fleht h.s battles be­ nd breastworks of bread and bacon. A warehouse may enable him to a single fight, but it can never make him win a war. Tale of Hun Gas Attacks.

An liulimiii high school teacher was horrified the other duy when she heard that her sister’s cook had culled her ignorant. Slie w£nt to Iier sister's home anil cornered the cook. Not a bit flustered, the old woman re­ plied : “I did say that. hut. honey, don’t let it worry you. No woman is educated Uiitil she's lived with a husband for six months.” The temper of the teacher was not. improved by this assertion. “Then you think huslmnds are an education?” she asked. “No, honey, it isn't that,” she re- plii'il. “It’s this way: Have you ever heuril how we learn from having ob­ stacles around us? Well, thut’s the way it is about husbands.” GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA TO DARKEN HAIR She mixed Sulphur with it to Re­ store Color, Gloss, Youth­ fulness. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with ulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. .Tust a few applications will prove a revela­ tion if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul­ phur recipe at home, though, is trou­ blesome. An easier way is to get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur "oinpound at any drug store all ready _'or use. This is the old-time recipe .mproved by the addition of other in­ gredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is nor sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive­ ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because'it does It so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and. ifter another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.—Adv. Future of the Submarine. In spite of the fact that the British nave some steam-driven 2,700-ton sub­ marines, capable of a surface speetf of from 23 to 25 knots, the submarine as a weapon of war is too slow and too blind when it is submerged to be con­ sidered a serious weapon of naval war­ fare. Wiien It can see, electrically, to a distance of 10 to 15 miles while it is submerged so deep as to lie invisible to the airscout, aud when it can steam 20 knots submerged, it will dominate the situation. — Scientific American.

We were all worried by the re-'olutiou of Henry Olay until it began to crumble under the irresistible attack Cf Mr. Wright. On the 16th he sub­ mitted a report upon it which for lucid ".nd accurate statements presented in the most unpretending manner won universal admiration and will be re- .Tembered alike for its intrinsic excel­ lence and for having achieved one of the most memorable victories ever gained in the United States senate. After a.long debate Clay himself, com­ pelled by the irresistible force of argu­ ment in the report of Mr. Wright, was obliged to retire from bis position, his resolution having been rejected by a vote of 44 to I.’” With what pride and joy I heard of Iliis great thing that .my friend had ac­ complished I Going out with the crowd that eve­ ning, I met Sally and Mr. and Mrs. DunkeIherg. The latter did not speak to me and when I asked Sally if I could walk home with her she an­ swered curtly, “No, thank you.” I have got a bit ahead of my history. Soon after thg opening of, the new year—ten days or so later it may have been—I had begun to feel myself en­ compassed by a new and subtle force. It was a thing as intangible as heat but as real as fire and more terrible. It seemed to me. I felt it first in the at­ titude of my play fellows. They de­ nied me the confidence and Intimacy which I had enjoyed before. They whispered together in my presence. In all this I had not failed to observe that Henry Wills had taken a leading part. The invisible, inaudible, mysterious thing wrought a great change in me. It followed me through the day and lay down with me at night. I wondered n bat I had done. I carefully surveyed my clothes. They looked all right to me. My character was certainly no worse than it bad been. How it preyed upon my peace and rest and happiness —that mysterious hidden thing! One day Uncle Peabody came down It: see me and I walkejl through the village with him. We met Mr. Dunkel- lierg, who merely nodded and hurried along. Mr. Bridges, the merchant, did not greet him warmly and chat with pocketbook: Some money was left to him by a relative in Vermont. That’s hew it happened that he bought a farm instead of going to the poorhouse when Grimshaw put the screws to him.” “I .knew that your uncle didn’t do it,” she went on. “Father and mother couldn’t tell you. So I had to.” “Why couldn’t your father and moth­ er tell me?” “They didn’t dare. Mr. Grimshaw made them promise that they would not speak to you or to any of your family. I heard them say that you and your uncle did right. Father told mother that he never knew a man so honest as your Uncle Peabody.” Just then we came upon the Silent Woman sitting among the dandelions Iiy the roadside. She held a cup in Iier hand with some honey on its bot­ tom and covered with a piece of glass. “She is hunting bees,” I said as we stopped beside her. She rose and patted my shoulder with a smile and threw a kiss to Sally. Suddenly her face grew stern. She pointed toward the village and then at Sally. “She means that there is some dan­ ger ahead of you,” I said. The Silent Woman picked a long Idade of grass and tipped its end in the honey at the bottom of the cup. She came close to Sally with the blade of grass between her thumb and finger. “She is fixing a charm,” I said. She smiled and nodded as she put a drop of honey on Sally’s upper lip. She held up her hands while her lips moved as if she were blessing us. “I suppose it will not save me if I brush it off.” said Sally. We went on and in a moment a bee lighted on the honey. Nervously she si ruck at it and then cried out with pain. “The bee has stung you,” I said. She covered her face with her hand­ kerchief and made no answer. “Wait a minute—I’ll get some clay,” I said as I ran to the river bank. I found some clay and moistened it with the water and returned. “There, look at me!” she groaned. “The bee hit my nose." She uncovered her face, now de­ formed almost beyond recognition, her nose having swollen to one of great size and redness. “You look like Rodney Barnes,” I him as he had been wont to do. I saw f said with a laugh as I applied the clay that Tlie Thing—as I had come to j to her afflicted nose, think of it—was following him also, How it darkened his face I Even now the deep.I can feel the aching of bloodless wounds of that day. I could, bear It better alone. We were trying to hide our pain from each other when we said good-by. How quickly my uncle turned away and walked toward the sheds! He came rarely to the vil­ lage of Canton after that. May had returned—a warm bright May. I had entered my seventeenth year and the work of the term was finished. Having nothing to do one afternoon. I walked out on tlie road toward Og- dciisburg for a look at the woods and fields. Soon I thought that I heard the sound of galloping hoofs behind me. I looked back and I saw Sally round­ ing the turn by the river and coming toward me at full speed, the mane of her pony flying back to her face. She pulled up beside me just as I had imagined she would do. “Bart, I hate somebody terribly,” said she. “Whom?” “A man who is coming to our house on the stage today. Granny Barnes is tiying to get up a match between us. Father says he is rich and hopes ho will want to marry me. . I got mad about it.. He is four years older than I am. Isn’t that awful? I am going to be just as mean and hateful to him us I can.” “I guess they’re only fooling you,” I said. “No, they mean it. I have heard them ■ talking it over. “He cannot marry you.” “Why?” It seemed to me that the time had come for me to speak out, and with burning cheeks I said: “Because I think that God has mar­ ried you-to me already. Do you re­ member when we kissed each .other by the wheat field one day last sum­ mer?” “Yes.” We had faced about and were walk­ ing back toward Canton, I close by the pony’s side. “May I kiss you again?” - She stopped the pony and leaned toward me and our lips met in a kiss the thought of which makes me lay down my pen and bow my head a mo­ ment while I think with reverence of that pure, sweet spring of memory in whose waters I love to wash my spirit. “I guess God has married us again,” I declared. “I knew that yon were walking on this road and I had to see you,” said she. “People have been saying such terrible things.” “What?” “They say your uncle found the pocketbook that was lost and kept the money. They say he was the first man that went up the rotfd after it was lost.” “It’s a He—my uncle never saw the j “And I feel like the old boy. I think my nose is trying to jump off and run i. way.” • AVe were nearing the village. She wiped the mud frOm her prodigious nose and I wet her handkerchief in a pool of water and helped her to wash it. Soon we saw two men approaching us In the ' road. In a moment I ob­ served that one was Mr. Horace Dun- UeIberg; the other a stranger and a re­ markably handsome young man he v.as, about twenty-two years of age Ce ,x-1 <&• I I We Came Upon the Silent Woman Sit- ting Among the Dandelions by the Roadside. . '< and dressed in the height of fashion. I remember so well his tall, athletic figure, his gray eyes, his small dark mustache and his admirable manners. Both were appalled at the look of Sally. “AVhy, girl, what has happened to you ?” her father asked. Then I saw what a playful soul was Sally’s. The girl was a born actress. “Been riding in the country,” said she. “Is this Mr. Latour?” “This is Mr. Latour, Sally,” said her father. They shook hands. “I am glad to see you,” said the stranger. “They say I am worth seeing,” said Sally. “This Is my friend, Mr. Baynes. When you are tirefl of seeing me, look at him.” I shook the hand he offered me. “Of course, we can’t all be good looking,” Sally remarked with a sigh, as if her' misfortune were permanent. Mr. Horace. Dunkelberg and I laughed heartily—for I had told him in a whisper what had happened to Sally —while Mr. Latour looked a little em­ barrassed. “My face is not beautiful, but they say that I have a good heart,” Sally assured the stranger. They started on. I excused myself and took a trail through the woods to another road. Just there, with Sally waving her hand to me as I stood for a moment in the edge 'of the woods, the curtain falls on this highly roman­ tic period of my life. Uncle Peabody came for me that eve­ ning. It was about the middle of the next week that I received this letter from Sally: “Dear Bart: Mr. Latour gave up and drove to Potsdam in the evening. Said he had to meet Mr. Parish. I think that he had seen enough of me. I began to hope he would • stay—he was so good looking, but mother is very glad that he went, and so am I, for our minister told us that he is one of the wickedest young men in the state. He is very rich and very bad. they say. I wonder if old Kate knew about him. Her charm worked well anyway—didn’t it? My nose was all right in the morning. Sorry Jhat I can’t meet you Saturday. Mother and I are packing up to go away for the summer. Don’t forget me. I shall be thinking every day of those loveiy things you said to me. I don’t know what they will try to do with me, and I don’t care. I really think as you do, Bart, that God has married us to each other. “Yours forever, “SALLY DUNKELBERG”. How often I read those words—so like all the careless words of the young! CHAPTER XIII. The Bolt Falls. Three times, that winter I had seen Benjamin Grimshaw followed by the Silent Woman clothed in rags and pointing with her finger. The trial of Amos came on. He had had “blood on his feet,” as they used to say, all the- way from Lickitysplit to Lewis county in his flight, having attacked and slightly wounded two men with a bowie knife who had tried to detain him at Rainy Lake. He had also shot at an officer in the vicinity of Lowville, where Ills", arrest was ef­ fected. He had been identified by all these men, and so his character as a desperate man had been established. This in connection with the scar on his face and the tracks, which the boots of Amos fitted, and the broken gun stock convinced the jury of his guilt. I remember well the look of the venerable Judge Cady- as he pro­ nounced the sentence of death upon Amos Grimshaw. A ray of sunlight slanting through a window in the late afternoon fell upon Iiis gracious coun­ tenance, shining also, with the softer light of his spirit. Slowly, solemnly, kindly, he spoke the words of doom. It was his way of saying them that first made me feel the dignity and majesty of the law. The bind and fa­ therly tone of his voice put me in mind of that supremest court which is above all question and which was swiftly to enter judgment in this mat­ ter and in others related to it. Slowly the crowd moved out of the courtroom. Benjamin Grimshaw rose and caimlv whispered to his lawyer. He had not spoken to his son or seemed to notice him since the trial had begun, nor did he now. Many had shed tears that day, but not he. Mr. Grimshaw never showed but one emo­ tion—that of anger. He was angry now. His face was hard and stern. He muttered as he walked out of ■ the courtroom, his cane briskly beating the floor. The Silent Woman—as ragged as ever—was waiting on the steps. Out went her bony finger as he came down. He turned and struck at her with his cane and shouted in a shrill voice that rang out like a trumpet in his frenzy: “Go ’way from me. Take her away, somebody. I can’t stan’ it. She's killin’ me. Take her away. Take her away. Take her away.” His face turned purple and then white. He reeled and fell headlong, like a tree severed from its roots, and lay still on the hard, stone pavement. It seemed as if snow were falling on his face—it grew so white.. The Silent AYoman stood as still as he, pointing at him with her finger, her look un­ changed. People came running toward us. I lifted the head of Mr. Grimshaw and laid it on my knee. It felt like the head of the stranger in Rattleroad. Old Kate bent over and looked at the eyelids of the man which fluttered faintly and were still. “Dead!” she muttered. Then, as if her work .were-finished, would. He tried not to see her, but I tell ye that bony old finger of hers burnt a hole In' him. He couldn’t stand it. I knew he’d blow up some day un­ der the strain. She got hiu At last” “Who got him?” another as*'ad. * ‘fftovin’ Kate. She killed hi a point­ ing her finger at him—so.” “She’s got an evil eye. Everybody’s afraid o’ the crazy ol’ trollope.’- “Nonsense! She isn’t half as ci'isr.V as the most of us,” said the lawyet “In my opinion she had a good reason for pointing her finger at that man. She came from the same town he did over In Vermont. Ye don’t know what happened there.” The doctor arrived. The crowd made way for him. He knelt beside "i I ''//i “Go 'Way From Me. Take Her Away." Uie still figure-and made the tests. He rose and shook his head, saying: “It’s all over. Let one o’ these boys gc- down and bring the undertaker.” Benjamin Grimshaw, the richest man In the township, was dead, and I have yet to hear of any mourners. Three days later I saw his body low­ ered into its grave. The little, bruken- spirited wife stood there with the same sad smile on her face that I had noted when I first saw her in the hills. Rovin’ Kate was there in the clothes she had worn Christmas day. She was greatly changed. Her hair was neatly combed. The wild look had left her eyes. She was like one whose back is relieved of a heavy burden. • Her lips moved as she scattered little red squares of paper into the grave. I sup­ pose they lhought it a crazy whim of hers—they who' saw her do it. I thought that I understood the curious bit of symbolism and so did the school­ master, who stood beside me. Doubt­ less the pieces of paper numbered her curses., “The scarlet sins of his youth are lying down with him in the dust,” Racket whispered as we walked away together. (END OF BOOK TWO.) BOOK THREE Which Is the Story of the Chosen Ways. . CHAPTER XIV. Uncle Peabody’s Way and Mine. It is a bad thing to be under a heavy obligation to one’s self of which, thank God, I am now acquitted. I have known men who were their own worst creditors. Everything they earned went swiftly to satisfy the demands of vanity or pride or .appetite. I have seen them literally put out of house and home; thrown neck and crop into the street, as it were, by one or the other of these honrtless creditors— each a grasping usurer. with unjust claims. I remember th,it Rodney Barnes called for my chert nnd me that fine morning in early J line when I was to go back to th« hills, my year’s work in school being ended. I elected to walk, and the schoolmaster went With me five miles or more across the flats to the slope of the high country. 1Soon the senator will be coming.” he remarked. “I have a long lettw from him and he asks about you and your aunt and uncle. I think that h»’s fond o’ you, boy.” “I wish you woull let me know whei he comes,” I said. “I am sure he will Jet- you know, she turned and made her way through; and, by the way, I have heard from the crowd and walked slowly down j another friend o’ yours, my lad. Ye're the street. Men stood aside to let her pass, as if they felt the power of her spirit and feared the touch of her gar­ ments. Two or three men had run to the house of the nearest doctor. The crowd thickened. /As I. sat looking down at the dead face in my lap, a lawyer who had come out of the courtroom pressed near me and bent over and looked at the set eyes of Benjamin Grimshaw and said: “She floored him at last. Iknewahe a lucky one to have so many fri“nds— sure ye are. Here, I’U show ye th»- letter. There’s no reason why J shouldn’t. Ye will know its writer probably. I do not” (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Raleigh.—The following is a brief resume of tlie principal events which marked the closing hours of the Gen­ eral Assembly of North Carolina: House and Senate. March. 7.—The senate, in commit­ tee of the whole, tonight receivwl the conference committee report on state­ wide road bill to assure federal aid, adopted the committee bill and then in regular session passed it on second reading. , Under the amended bill, the State highways will be constructed through all counties, as between county seats and principal towns, of 2.500 popula­ tion and over. Any county can pro­ vide one-fourth of tlie cost for such roads and speed up the road construc­ tion and the State Highway Commis­ sion has authority to contract with counties for roads in that county or give roads out to contractors or build on its own account. The senate tonight passed the Neal child labor bill as it came from the house. This action came after the NeaI bill had been presented with mi­ nority favorable report from commit­ tee and after, an amendment1 to sub­ stitute the commissioner of labor and printing for commissioner of public welfare the vote was 27 to 20. In the late afternoon session of the house there came a message from Governor B’ckett urging that the Brummitt bill for the seriiization ox "morally insane" persons or heedless­ ly and incurably imbeciles be passed. The message was read and then the bill was put on its readings and pass­ ed Ijy a vote of 67 to 25. Mr. Dougbton told the house that s. conference committee road bill had been agreed upon that “is agreeable to those who believe in a state sys­ tem; those who believe in a county system: those who believe in state Vmds and tltoe v-tio do not believe in state bonds.” Senate. March S.—The senate got to work- on house bills at the afternoon ses­ sion. It took time to concur in the house amendments to the Stacy juve­ nile court bill and then took up the local calendar. On motion of Senator Thompson the roll was called to ascertain how many senators would remain until Tuesday in order to finish up the business of the General Assembly. Thirty-six sen- aturs voted to remain nnf.il Tuesday. The house bill pi-ohibiting the sale House and Senate. March 10.—The bill cf Senator Brown, of Columbus, for a constitu­ tional convention went to. its death in the house this afternoon by (Tlmost a unanimous vote after it bad passed the senate by a large majority some weeks ago. Its death was largely due to consideration of the success of the income tax amendment to the present constitution that has to be submitted to the people for ratification at the next election, and a desire to not ham­ per this issue with any question as to further revision of the constiution. This, the last busy legislative day of the session, saw the ratification of the State highway federal aid hill that gave both branches of the legisla­ ture so much tre.ubie in reaching a compromise. Adjustment of diversi­ fied views that would provide a really workable law, under which the coun­ ties. the StatO and federal aid could co-operate for the building and main­ tenance of both main artery highways through the State, linking county seats and principal towns, and the les­ ser roads that radiate into localities and lead to these thoroughfares. Representative Crisp, in personal privilege,-gave Representative Saun­ ders. of Pasquotank, a tongue lashing for criticisms of Crisp in his paper the Independent, in which he referred to “The habit of the representative from Dare,, Crisp, of taking a bit of fluid that ehee'rs the heart of an inebriate! Crisp told the stody of Samuel Coleridge and Charles Lamb and the latter's deelartion. “Yes I air- drunk but I will get over it. buj, you are a damned fool and won't get'over it.” Saunders joined in the uproarious laughter. But Crisp was not done. He denounced Saunders as having had to be1 called down on the floor of the house for using unfit language and having run the only newspapers in the state that had to be suppressed. The house divided its closing hours between a fisli-fight on the part of eastern members and the bi-ennial love feast. Speaker Brummitt and the house workers were all remember­ ed. The senate wouldn’t concur in the conference report on the. education bill so the house sent the committee into a further conference. The second conference report urged the house to concur in the senate amendments. Failure to adopt would leave the appointment of members for 94 boards up to the governor or the state superintendent of public in­ struction. -Time counted and the house, voting 54 to 18. adopted the report of Geo. F. McAllister of Concord prevailed over that of W. J. A-Veddington of the same place. House and Senate.

E. ElIis Dead. Mrs. H. E. EIIis known to many as aunt Hannah, died Monday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. M. Owen near Smith Grove. For several years she had suffered with paralysis, and near the end war helpless. While her death had been ex pected for some time yet it cast a gloom over all who knew her. She was born in the year 1832 and early in life united with the Methodist Episcopal church, liv­ ing a beautiful Christian life. While yet very young she became the bride of Mr. William Eilis. They lived happily togeth­ er fora number of years until 1862 when his country called him to join in the Civil war. He was one of the many who gave his life for his Country, leaving a widow with four small children. At times, no doubt, she felt the burden heavy, but was ‘ always cheerful and happy, ever ready to do something for some one else, and before her affliction she was never too tjred or busy, nor the weather too cold for her to leave her home to go to the bedside of some one sick, suffering or dying. We who have seen her at the bedside of our dying loved ones; seen her gentle touch and heard her gentle voice' we who ourselves have felt her tender touch in honrs of sickness call her an an­ gel of mercy. Before her marriage she was Miss Hannah Smith, sister of the late Jonathan Smith. She lcavesthree chil­ dren, Mrs. Philip Jones of this place, Mr.- Frank Ellis, R. 4 and Mrs. W. M. Owen of Smith Grove to mourn her loss, besides a number of grandchildren; great grand children and other relatives and a large number of friends. Our loss is * Heaven’s eternal gain. A FRIEND. “1Y.

Rather an interesting case baa been developed in Winston-Salem. Being so near by, it is well wortb publishing here. The statement is sincere—the proof con­ vincing: J. W. Fletcher, prop, furniture store, 703 Trade St., Wipston-Saiem, N. C., says: 'My back ached and when I lifted any­ thing heavy, sharp pains caught me in my kidneys. Abtimes my kidneys acted irregularly, causing me much misery. I Snally got Doan’s Kidney Pilis and after taking a few doses I was relieved of the pain in my back. I used in all about three boxes and since then, I haven’t had any kidney trouble and have felt better in every way. Price 60c, at ail dealers.

Sixteen men made the attempt, but only Puryear, Lieutenant Harold Willis of Boston, and Naval Lieuten­ ant Isaacs of Portsmouth, Va., got away. Word has Just been received at Y. M. C. A. headquarters here con­ cerning their almost hopeless esca­ pade. The men brought back remarkable accounts of Y. M. C. A. work even at Villingen. "The ’Y* sent us books of all kinds and Sven sporting goods,” said Lieut. Puryear. “We played basketball and volley bail incessantly—our space was too small for baseball and football. I tell you, those games were life savers to us, and they kept us\in fair physi­ cal condition.” It is reported that Puryear and his comrades slipped out of the camp through a tunnel under the wire. All but the three named were headed off before they reached Jthe river Rhine, but the intrepid trio s&am the river— a terrible feat in itself—and made their way Vito Holland. MONEY SENT E BEFOREJIG BAHLE Doughboys “Cleaned Pockets’’ for Home Folks, When Return From Fight Was Uncertain. Y. M. C. A. Has Delivered Millions of Dollars For Amex. Paris, Feb. ...—The steady unsel­ fishness of the American soldier, shown by the way he “cleaned his pockets’ of money before going into adtion, to be sent home if he didn’t come back, is told by W. J. Baker oi Portcliester, N. Y., who served eleven months as a Y. M. C. A. worker with the 26th Division. His particular charge was the third battalion of the 103rd infantry. He joined that unit on the St. Mihiel front, went witl them to Chateau Thierry, and latei was in the famous St. Mihiel clean-ui and the drive before Verdun. “It was just before that action be gan,” said Baker, “that I saw the finest example of the characteristic .unselfish ness of the boys. They ‘cleaned theii pockets’ for the folks at home. They knew they were going up against the real thing, and they wanted all their money to go home in case they novel came back. In all, I was entrusted with 8,000,000 francs — upwards oi ?1,500,000 — before that attack. We handled such funds through the regu. Iar Y. M. C.- A. service established foi sending money from soldiers to rela­ tives in America.” Baker lived .with his battalion, and saw lively times' as the “Yanket Division,” as it was called, was kepi on the fighting front almost continu busly. ________________ A bill by Senator Gore, of Okla­ homa, Democrat, died with the adjournment of Congress to demo- bolize all soldiers within 30 days.

A Missouri editor who was brim ­ ful of hard cider got a weddingac- Couut and a sale mixed up, and served to his readers this dope: William Smith, the only son ol M r. and Mrs. Josiah Williams, was disposed of at auction to Lucy Anderson on my farm, one mile east of here in ,the presence of 70 guests, including- to wit: Two mules, 12 head of cattle. The Rev. Jackson tied the nuptial knot, the beast weighing 1,250 pounds on the hoof. The beautiiul home of the bride was tastefully decor ated with a jersey calf, a spade, one feed grinder, one set of double harness, almost new, and just be­ fore the ceremony was pronounced, Mendelsohn’s wedding inarch was played by one milch cow, five years old, one jersey cow, carrying a bunch of dowers and looking charming in a gown made of a light spring wagon, two boxes of apples, two racks of hay and one grind­ stone, messaliue trimmed with about ISO bushels of spuds. The groom is a well known and popu­ lar young man and has id was stood well among society circles, of 12 Berkshire hogs, while the bride is an accomplished and talented school teacher of a splendid drove of Poland Chinas—pedigree if de- sued. Among the beautiful pres eutB were two 6ets of knives and forks, one spring harrow, one wheelbarrow, one go cart and oth er articles too numerous to men. tion.' The bridal couple left yes. terday on an extended trip, term of 12 months lime, extended to responsible parties, otherwise spot cish. Luncheon will be served at the table. A fter this Mr. and Mrs. Smith will go to. housekeep­ ing in a cozy home at the corner of Main and Rector, R. L. Branby, auctioneer. Has Had Stomach Trouble For Seven Years. . Theodore Sanford of Fenmore, Mich., has had stomach trouble for seven years and could not eat vegetables or fruit with­ out pain in the stomach and restless nights. By taking Chamberlain's Tablets he is now able to eat vegetaqles or fruit without causing pain or sleeplessness. Il troubled with indigestion or constipation give these tablets a trial. They are cer­ tain to prove beneficial. Keep Them Apart. The Baptists are great lovers of religious liberty. They block ev ery effort looking in the direction of union of church and state. They put to sleep a bill allowing the Bible to be read in the public schools. .Then, again, the other day some well meaning person in the legislature proposed that the State should give the orphanages 845,000 out ol the school funds of the State. The Baptists members, with the help of Hon. J A. Brown of Ohadbourn. a true blue Presby terian, quickly put the bill to sleep. Few of our Xorth Carolina Orphanages really need financial help from.the state, and if they did the churches owning them would be slow to let the State get “ a finger in the pie.”—Ex.

Interested Parties Zealous In Interfering With the Newspaper Reporter’s Stories—Mention of Dress Worn Approved. Statesville Landmark. A newspaper man stamped sul­ lenly into a friend’s office and slumped down in a chair. The friend left off his work over some legal papers and turning about asked the newspaper man just wny bis world wa9 so black when the sun was shining outside. And this is the story that the man told. “ I’m a newspaper man by pro­ fession, Justasit is your busi­ ness to ga before the bar and plead your case, just so it’s my business to go out in this world of woe aud find out the things folks are doing. Of course it’s a dog’s life and makes a nervous wreck, a dyspep­ tic, a cynic and a sarcastic nui out of a man. But all the same it’s my game and I’m tryi hg to play it. “ This morning I went outside feeling fine as a sunny day, and I met an old pal of mine. He said, ‘Jiin Brown just now got his li­ cense to marry ’ In less than no time I was talking to ,Tim and Jim was saying, ‘As a personal friend and for the sake of all ihat we’ve ever meant to each other, don’t, please don’t put this thing in print tot—say a week or two.’ By the sweat of my brow I unearthed the story oi a big business deal that had taken place. It was something of vital interest to every business man in this town, something tre­ mendous. I knew the details ot the transaction, but the consent of one man was necessary before the affair, entirely legitimate and fit for the public eye, should appear in print. This morning I went to the one man and showed my hand. And this man rose up in righteous wrath and expressed the fervent hope that I was not figuring on putting all that business in the pa per. Of course it was true, he said, but he preferred that it not go in the paper even if it was true. And there his Bide of it ended. My story that I’d worked for and gotten together by the use of all my wits, was snatched from me in one blow.” “ A big old fellow, who lives ov­ er town, lost his temper this morn­ ing and beat up his wile. The woman had to go> to the hospital to get herself mended—quite a neat little story to it all. I was sitting at my typewriter pounding away on my story of the affair, and per­ chance whistling a little air over my good luck on getting the story right off the reel, when into the office swiDgs the big fellow and fairly snatched my typewriter from my hands. He says he hears as how I ’m putting something in the paper about'his trouble with his wife. I told him I had thought something about it and was even then getting together a little copy on the matter. The copy was rudely torn from my typewriter and with hot words consigned to the waste basket. Then the man asked me aB a friend of bis to please keep this thing out of the paper as he was a man with con­ siderable family, and would I not take pity on his dear wife and eight little children if not on him “ A quiet little man accepted a quiet little position with a business firm in towu. And when I ap­ proached this quiet soul aud nicek- The Strong Withstand the Winter Cold w tter Than the Weak You must hayff-Health, Strength and En­ durance to fight Colds, Grip and Influenza.

Iy asked if it were true that he was adding up figures for So anil So’s company, he hopped off his high itool and walked excitedly about his desk and said he’d thank me to keep his affairs out of the paper iustat this time. I walked up the <treet iu a gloomy frame of mind, but up the street a bit I forgot my own worries. A big touring car ■swept around tho corner, met a iIttle Ford, hit the machine a re­ sounding blow that broke the tiny fellow’s engine and knocked his driver senseless. The driver of tde big car (even in the excitement of the moment and while the doc- -ors were seeking tne breath of life in the Ford driver’s body) observed me as I stood conspicuously on the curb. He left the wreck and fled to my side and besought me with kind words and sharp to keep the matter quiet aud not let it get into print for how could he stand the humiliation. If I remember right­ ly he had a fair young wife, whose repntation was at stake. “ A little farther up the street I observed two dogs in a fierce fight. I stopped long enough to assure them that they need not worry. I ’d do my best to keep the matter quiet aud not let it get into print. Do you wonder a newspaper roan gats Si bit cynical After awhile. “ But no—nobody but a newspa­ per man can understand. You yourself, should you suddenly be possessed of a temper, snatch out your gun and shoot me dead, you’d be beating it in no time around to our office and hunting out the city edjtor and begging of him to keep this thiug quiet; for Heaven’s sake don’t go printing this bloody busi- ue-is. “And here' I am after a stren­ uous day’s work, and I declare to you, all the copy I ’ve tinned in goes in under protest except the illuminating information that Mrs. W hat’s Her Haue wore pink tulle over a beautiful blue satin at the reception last night.” The Best Laxative. "My sedentary habits have necessitated the use of an occasional laxative. I have tried many but nothing better than Cham­ berlain’s Tablets,” writes George F, Dan­ iels, Hardwick, Vt. Mr. Daniels is propri­ etor of the Hardwick inn, one of the mod­ el hotels of New England. One of the most thoughtful men in Horth Carolina, who has had considerable experience in the work of-education and in dealing with children, recently made the lollowing very impressive deliver ance: “ There are enough chil­ dren going to the bad in Horth Carolina, for the lack of room in the orphanages, to give the state, in the next generation, a criminal population that will cost ten times as much to imprison or kill as it would have cost, to train them into use/ul citizenship. This i9 put ting the proposition on the lowest possible plane. It looks bad enough from the standpoint of money, what must it look like from the standpoint of Heaven— or Hell?’’- E x .

We do not like to print such a statem ent but ic is true and the sooner we all realize this fact the better off we will be. For the past year our town has been going down hill. The population today is not as large as it was five years ago. The loss of the furniture factory by fire caused a number of good citizens to leave the town because they could not get employment. It seems that we stand n good chance of losing an­ other one of our factories this year, which will throw more men out of work. There are more empty houses n Mocksviile today than in the past fifteen years. Our citizens are taking life easy, watching, the town die by degrees, I^o effort is bsmg made by the business men to secure any new enterprises. There is no chamoer of commerce, merchants’ association or any other organization here to boost the town. Some of the business man are more afraid nf printer’s ink than they are of the devil. Their business is never men tioned in the advertising columns of the local papers. They want the people to come here to locate and do their trading, but they won’t spend one cent to help get new citizens and new business enterprises. Some of them are afraid their taxes might be raised if the town should grow a little. God pity the poor devils, for they need it. Our merchants and professional men are losing money every time a family leaves the town. The Record could possibly be print­ ed every week were there not a fac­ tory or business house in the town, for most of our patronage, especially subscriptions, joo printing, etc., comes from outside the town, but the merchants depend a great deal on the payroll of the factories. Without them our business men could hardly get along, especially auring the summer months when the farmers do not trade much. The Record wants Mocksville to grow. It wants the business men to get to­ gether and start something. The man who says that no new factories could be secured if the proper efforts were made, is a liar and the truth is not in him. What are we going to do? Is the old town going to die for iack of a physician? Other towns are getting new mills and factories every week in the year. Ourclimate is good, our rents and fuel is cheao, labor is cheaper than any other town we know of. and the cost of living is much lower than in any other town we know of. We have the healthiest town in the State. During the in­ fluenza epidemic, with more than eight hundred cases, we did not have a death. Can any other town show such a record? We think not. The Lord has betn good to the people of Mocksvilie. and has abundantly bless - ed them, but they have not done their part. We have some good peo­ ple—no better to be found in North Carolina. We also have some citi­ zens that, like RipVan Winkle, have been asleep for twenty years. It is time for them to wake up. If some­ thing is not done soon our town is going to wake up after it is too late to do anything. Our business men —the men who have money and in­ fluence—should have a get-to-gether meeting and take 3ome action. The Record has been boosting the town for many years, and means to do all in its power to keep the boosting go* ing, but we Slid it a hard proposi tion with no one to help us. If the fell;I ws who stand around and knock the town from sunup till dark would do a little boosting or move away the towa would be in better shape We n£e(?';'more boSstfers and less tnuckers.

Atlanta, March 21,- The work of the women of the country is still greatly needed in order that the Red Cross may maintain its program of helpfulness to the liberated coun­ tries of the world. During the war the knitted ar­ ticles produced by the women of America were largely instrumental in providing adequate clothing for the men at arms. These articles are still needed for the women and chil­ dren of the liberated countries in Europe. Northern France, Belgium, Serbia, Italy, Rumania, Greece, Montenegro. Palestine, Albania and other countri< s are to be furnished with the garments that are needed most acutely. In many of these places the textile milis have been destro;- •. d and hence materials for clothing are absolutely unpurchas- able.

VIEWS ARE WiOiLK DIVERGENT Lloyd George Fears Denationization of So Many Germans Would Cause Another War. Paris.—When the council of great powers met it was in an atmosphere of considerable apprehension over Pol­ and. which is the chief subject -w -t-'- cussion. This is not on account of Poland itself but-because of differences which have arisen affecting the funda­ mental question of nationaHty, to which President Wilson has given his strong approval and also his thir­ teenth “point” which called for an in­ dependent Polish state with access to '.he sea. This last cause has introduced an issue on fhich there is a wide diverg- enceof views. A committee under the chairmanship of Jules Cambon. with Sir William Tyrell as the British mem­ ber and Dr. Robert . LorHd as the American, has reported the plan giv­ ing Poland this access to the sea by means of a “corridor” 60 miles wide running across east Prussia. But the effect of this concession is to place about 1.500,000 Germans within the new Poland and to detach the eastern­ most part of Prussia from Germany. Premier Lloyd George has taken the view that this denationalization of a large body of Germans would cause such discontent as would be likely to bring on another war anil it is under­ stood that President Wilson also is not entirely satisfied with the pro­ posal. OFFICES OF PORTAL SYSTEM ARE REMOVED BY BURLESON Washington.—Differences between the miinaivement of the postal T1-Io- STaph & Cable Co., and Postmaster General Burleson culminated in an or- Jer by the postmaster general sum- narily relieving the chief office-n. di­ rectors and owners of the Postal com­ pany from all duties in connection with government operation of their system. An announcement bv the postoffice department says that the order re­ moving Messrs. Mackav. Cook and Deegan from the operation Cf the Postal company’s lines under govern­ ment control was “made necessary by the fact that since the postoffice department refused to grant the com­ pensation asked for by them, these officials have refused or failed to fol­ low out the instructions of the depart­ ment in the management of the prop­ erties and failed to put into operation promptly the wage schedule and the eight hour day; and in various ways endeavored to embarrass and discredit the government, operation of the wires. NUMBER OF RETURNED TROOPS EXCEED ONE-HALF MILLION Washington.—The total number of members of the American expedition­ ary forces returned to the United States has passed the half million mark.

IELLOIS PEfiIL n Us ATTENTION OF JAPANESE IS CALLED TO OUR ATTITUDE OM ALIEN LAND HOLDING. ONE MILLION HGOES SGOSHT No Land Sales to Foreigners Which Might Be Used for Military or Naval Purposes Favored. Washington.—A3 a result of tele­ grams from Senator Phelan, of Cali­ fornia, giving information of a pro­ posal by Japanese interests to acquire a large tract of land in Lower Cali­ fornia owned by Americans, the state department has called the attention of the ovfning corporation, the Cali- fornia-Mexico Land Company, of Los Angeles, to the attitude of the United States government toward such sales of property which might be used for military or naval purposes. It was said at the state department the land in question was reported to comprise nearly a million acres. The use to which the prospective purchas­ ers propose to put it is not known here. Documents indicating the attitude of. the government to which the de­ partment called the Los iAngeles ocm- pany’s attention included the Lodge resolution in the 62nd Congress and a message by President Taft. The Lodge resolution declares the sales of property by Americans to any nation which might use the site as a base to threaten the United States could not be seen without grave concern by the government of the United States. The message of President Taft transmitted a report by Secretary Knox in response to a senate resolution, and conveyed cor­ respondence between the off’ce of the secretary of state and a Kew1 YrVk lawyer who represented a Janbnene syndicate which sought to purchase land on Magdalena bay.

HOT STfiIOTLT GGiTiTiERGIfiL ISSUE HESIS DN 14 POINTS Impossible to Float a $5,000,900,000 Loan as a Purely Business Propo­ sition; Patriotism Must Help. Minneapolis.— Appealing confident­ ly to the patriotism of the American people to make a success of the com­ ing Victory Liberty loan, Secretary of the Treasury Glass in two speeches in the twin cities declared the loan could not be floated on a strictly com­ mercial basis. The people have ample resources, he declared, from the $11,000,000,008 trade balance of the three last years, nigh war wages and the thrift engen­ dered by the war and its savings cam­ paigns. “We are not going to approach the last Liberty loan in a strictly com­ mercial spirit," said Mr. Glass at the close of the two-day better business convention of the Northwest. “A little thought will teach the wisest among the Bnanciei1S of the country it is impossible to float, pure­ ly for investment purposes, a loan of five or six billion dollars. We have got to appeal to the patriotism of the American people and it will not be done in vain."

New Orleans reports au equality of supply and demand and stated all la­ bor disputes had been settled. Wilmington. X. C.. and Columbia. S. C.. reported slight shortage.

London.—There are many indica­ tions of a concerted effort by German propaganda to suggest that Germany should refuse to sign the preliminary peace terms. This appeared more than a fortnight ago when that ac­ complished propagandist. Professor Hoetsch, of Berlin, published an ar­ ticle in The Vienna Neue Frele Presse suggesting that, unless the 14 points of Wilson inspired the treaty, Ger­ many hould adopt the attitude of the Russians at Brest-Litovsk and refuse to sign. It became more evident immediate­ ly after a rupture in negotiations at Spa. The Hamburger Nachrichteu, for ex­ ample, wrote that it had now become clear the allies were masking a fero­ cious policy of revenge under a pre­ tended league of nations. It attrib­ uted this chiefly to France, as French statesmen recognized that France had received a mortal blow and that in 10 or 20 years Germany, however reduced in territory now, would be twice as strong as France, who wishes, there­ fore to take from her all her coal, iron and potash and prevent her hav­ ing either necessary food or neces­ sary raw materials.. There was still a faint hope that the Anglo-Saxons would see reason, declared The Nacli- richten, but if not Germany would bow to force for the present and prepare for the future. The Deutsche Tabe SHeitung said the government must insist upon ab­ solute guarantees that German shins would be returned as they face the well-known duplicity of the English and no reliance could be placed on the statement of Admiral Hope that these were required simply for feed­ ing Europe. The Hamburger Fremdenhiatt de­ clared it had little hope in America. “DRYS” ARE PUT ON GUARD BY STRONG “WET” OFFENSIVE Washington.—The “drys” had bet­ ter be on guard for the “wets” are up and doing and they have a big bunk account to start with. A number of the metropolitan dailies are support­ ing the movement to undo the con­ stitutional amendment. Rhode Island may take the amend­ ment to the supreme court and ask for an opinion on its constitutionality. The quickest way to get a decision in the highest court is through a suit brought by a. state. The attorney gen­ eral of Rhode Island, if authorized by the state legislature to test the amend­ ment, can go like a bee to the su­ preme- court.

What do you think of the soul iu him? Wliat kind of work is best for it? If you will let me maybe I can help the plans of God a little. Thai is my business and yours. Thanking you for reading this, I am, as ever, “God’s humble servant, “KATE PULLBJtTON," “Why, this is the writing of the Si­ lent Woman," I said before I had read the letter Imif through. 'lIiovin1 Kate?” “Koving Kate; I never knew her oth­ er name, but I sasv her handwriting long ago.” “But. look—this is a neatly written, well-worded letter an’ the sheet is as whire and clean as the new snow. Un- uiuny woman I They say she carries Uie power o’ God in her right hand. So do all the wronged.” “I wonder why Kate i8 asking about me.” I said. “Npver mind the reason. She is your Triend and let. us thank God for it. Think how she came to yer help in the old barn an’ say a thousand prayers, my iiid.” Hiiving come to the first flight of The uplands, he left me with many a kind word—how much they mean to a boy who is- choosing his way with a growing sense of loneliness! I reached the -./arm welcome of our little home just in time for dinner. They were expecting me and it was a regular company dinner—chicken pie and strawberry shortcake. How well I remember that hour with the doors open and tlie sun shining brightly on the blossoming fields and the joy of man and bird and beast in tlie return of summer and tlie talk about the late visit of Almu Jones and Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln! While we were eating I told them about the letter of old Kate. “Fullerton!” Aunt DeeI exclaimed. “Are ye sure that was the name, Bart?" "Yes.” “Goodness gracious sakes alive!” She iind Uncle Peabody gave eacli other looks of surprised inquiry. “Do you i know anybody by that name?” I asked. “We used to,” said Annt Deel as she resumed her eating. “Can’t be she's one o’ the Sam Fullertons, can it?” Oh, prob'ly not,” said IJncle Pea­ body. “Back East they’s more Fuller­ tons than ye could shake a stick at.” A week later we had our raising. Uncle Peabody did not want a public raising, but Aunt Deel had had her way. We had hewed and mortised and bored the timbers for our new home. The neighbors came with pikes and helped to raise and stay and cover them. A great amount of human kind­ ness went into the beams and rafters of that home and of others like It. I knew that The Tiling was still alive in the neighborhood, but even tlisit could not paralyze the helpful hands of those people. Indeed, what was said of my Uncle Peabody was nothing more or less than a kind of conversa­ tional firewood. I cannot think that any one really believed it. We had a cheerful day. A barrel of hard cider had been set up in the door- yard, and I remember that some drank it too freely. The he-o-liee of the men as they lifted on the pikes and the sound of the hammer and beetle rang in the air from morning until night. Mrs. Rodney Barnes anr\ Mrs. Dorothy came to help Aunt Deel with tlie cook­ ing and a great dinner was served 011 an improvised table In the dooryard, where the stove was set up. The shingles and sheathes and clapbuird were on before tlie day ended. Uncle Peabody and I put in the floors and stairway and partitions. Moi1C than once in the days we were working together I tried to tell him what SnJly had told we, but my cour­ age failed. The dny fame, shortly, when I had to. speak out, and I took the straight way of my dnty as the needle of the compass pointed. It was the end of a summer day and we had watched the dusk fill the valley and come creeping up the slant, sinking the bowlders and thorn tops in Its flood, one by one. As we sat looking out of the open door that evening I told them what Sally had told me of the evil report which had traveled through the two towns. “Damn, little sonled, narrer con­ tracted—” Uncle Peabody, speaking in a low, sad tone, but with deep' feeling, cut off this highly promising opinion before it was half expressed, and rose and went to the water pail and drank. “As long as we’ra honest we don't care what they say,” he remarked as he returned to his chair. i “H ■they won’t believe ns, we ought r° sh»w ’em the papers—ayes,’’ said Aont Deel “Thunder an’ Jehu! I wouldn't go ’round the town tryin’ to prove that ain’t a thief,” said Uncle Peabody. “It wouldn't make no differ’uce. They’ve got to have somethin’ to play with. If they want to use my name for bean bag let ’em as long as they do it when I ain’t lookin’. I wouldn’t won der if they got sore hands by an’ by. I never heard him speak of it again. Indeed, although I knew the topic was otten in our thoughts it -was never mentioned in our home but once after that, to my knowledge. We sat for a long time thinking as the night came on. That week a letter came to me from the senator, ,".nnminoim; the day Mrs. Wright’s arrival in Canton and asking me to meet and assist her in getting the house to rights.' I did so. She was a pleasant-l'aced, amiable woman and a most, enterprising house cleaner. I remember that my first task was mending the wheelbarrow. “I don’t know what Silas would do if he were to get linnie and find his wheelbarrow broken," said she. “It is almost an inseparable companion of his.” The schoolmaster and his family were fishing and camping upon the river, and so I lived at the senator’s house with Mrs. Vvriglit and her moth­ er until he arrived. What a wonderful house it was, in my view! I was awed Ivy its size anil splendor, its soft car­ pets and shiny brass and mahogany. Yet it was very Si nil)] e. I lioed the garden and cleaned its paths anil mowed the dooryard and did some painting in the house. The senator returned to Canton that evening on the AVateriown stage. He greeted me with a fatherly warmth. Again I felt that strong appeal to my eye in his broadcloth and fine linen and beaver hat and in the splendid dignity and courtesy of his manners. ‘Tve had good reports of yon, Bart and I’m very glad to see you,” he said. “I believe your own marks have been excellent in the last year,” I ven­ tured. “Poorer than I could wish. The teacher has been very kind to me,” he laughed. “What have you been study­ ing?" “Latin (I always mentfoned the Latin first), algebra, arithmetic, gram- iiio r, geography and history.” He asked about my aunt and uncle i'nd I told him of all that had befallen ns, save the one thing of which I had spoken only with him and Sally. “I shall go up to see them soon,” he Siiid. The people of the little village had learned that he preferred to be let alone when he had just returned over the long, wearisome way from the scene of his labors. So we had the evening to ourselves. Mrs. Wright, being. Weai1J after the diiy’s work, went to 4ed early and, at his request, I sat with the senator by I M I iand make up a statement of all tlie time you have given me?” I made out the statement very neat­ ly and carefully and put it in Ids hands. “That is well dona,” said he. “I shall wish you to stay until the day after to­ morrow, if you will. So you will please add another day.” I amended the statement and he paid me the handsome sum of seven dollars. I remember that after I went.to my room that night I stitched up the open­ ing in my jacket pocket, which con­ tained iny wealth, with the needle and thread which Aunt Deel had put in my bundle, ai>< t- *it with the jacket un­ der my mattress. CHAPTER XV. I Remember My First Task Was Mend­ ing the Wheelbarrow. the fire for an hour or so. I have al­ ways thought it a lucky circumstance, for he asked me to tell of my plans and gave me advice and encourage­ ment which have had a marked effect upon my career. I remember telling him that I wished to be a lawyer and my reasons for it He told me that a lawyer was either a pest or a servant of justice and that his chief aim should be the promotion of peace and good will in his commun­ ity. He promised to try and arrange for my accommodation in his office In the autumn and meanwhile to lend me some books to read .while I was at borne.. . “Before we go to bed let ns have a settlement.” said the senatoi*. I Use My Own Compass at a Fork In the Road. Swiftly now I move across the bor­ der into manhood—a serious, eager, restless manhood. It was the fashion of the yoniig those days. Mr. Wright came up for a day’s fish­ ing in July. My uncle and I took him up the river. While we ate or.r luncheon he de­ scribed .Tnckson and spoke of the fa­ mous cheese which he had kept on a table In the vestibule of the White House for his callers. He described his fellow senators—Webster, Clay, liives, Calhoua and Benton. I remem­ ber that Webster was, in Ills view, the least of them, although at his best tlie greatest orator. We had a delightful day, and when I drove back to the vil- h.ge with him that niglit he told me that I could .co into the office of Wriglit & Baldwin after harvesting. It will do for a start,” he said. "A little later I shall try to find a better place for you.” My life went on with little in it worth recording until the letter came. speak of it as “the letter,” because of its effect upon my career. It was from Sally, and It said: Deiir Bart: It’s all over for a long time, perhaps forever—that will de­ pend on you. I shall be true to yoc, if you really love me, even if I have to wait many, many years. Mother and father saw and read your letter. They say we are too young to be thinking :ibout love and that we have got to stop it. How can I stop it? I guess I would have to stop living. But we shall have to depend upon our mem­ ories now. I hope that yours is as good as mine. Father says no more letters without his permission, and he stamped his foot so hard that I think he must have made a dent in the floor. Talk about slavery—what do you think of that? Mother says that we must wait—that it would make father a great deal of trouble if it were known that I allowed you to write. I guess the soul of old Grimshaw is still fol­ lowing you. Well, we must stretch out that lovely day as far as we can: On the third of June, 1S44, we shall both be twenty-one—-and I suppose that we can do as we please then. The day is a long way off. but I will agree to meet you that day at eleven in the morning under the old pine on the river where I met you that day and you told me that you loved me. H either or both should die our souls will know where to find each other. K yon will solemnly promise, write these words and only these to my mother— Amour omnia vincit, but do not sign our name. “SALLY." What a serious matter it seemed to me then! I remember that it gave Time a rather slow foot. I wrote the words very neatly and plainly on a sheet of paper and mailed it to Mrs. Dnnkelberg. I wondered if Sally would stnnd firm, and longed to know the secrets of the future. More than ever was resolved to be the principal wit­ ness in some great matteV, as my friend in Asliery lane had put it. I was eight months with Wright & Baldwin when I was offered a clerk­ ship In the office of Judge Westbrook, at Cobleskill, in Schoharie county, at two hundred a year and my board. I ‘ new not then just liosv Jlie offer had come, but knew that ;tlie senator must iive recommended :ine. I iino.'.v now that he wanted ,a ,reliable witness of the rent troubles -which were gro^ng acute in Schoharie, Delaware an<{ Co­ lumbia counties. It was a tijjiil to sro so far from home, as Auat JJewl put it, bat both my aunt and u.rjqic -agreed that it was “for the best" Hoiv if wrung my heart, when Mr. Purvis and I got into the stage at Can­ ton, to see my aunt and uncle standing by tlw front wheel looking up at me. IJow nld and lonely and forlorn they looked! Aunt Deel had her purse in her hand. I remember how she took a dollar out of it—I suppose it was the only dollar she hittl—iind looked at it a moment pud then handed it up to me. “You better take 31-.” she said. “I’m fraid you won’t liave enough.” IIow her hand ;:n;3 lips trembled! I have always kept that dollar. I couldn’t see them as we drove away. The judge received me kindly and gave Purvis a job In his garden. I was able to take his dictation in hiund- hand and spent most of my time In taking down contracts and correspond­ ence and drafting them into proper form, which I had the knack of doing rather neatly. I was impressed by the immensity of certain towns In the neighborhood, and ,there -were some temptations in,my way.- Miiny people, and especially the- 'prorSinent men, in­ dulged in ardent spirits. We had near -us there a little, section of the old world which was trying, in a half-hearted fashion, to maintain It- cbarrer offerer, to anv member tf tb*> company who should, within four years, bring fifty adults to Ili^ New Netherlands and establish them along the Hudson, a liberal grant of land, to be colled a manor, of which the owner or patroon should be full proprietor and chief magistrate. The settlers were to be exempt from taxation for ten years, but under bond to stay in one place and develop it. In the be­ ginning the patroon built houses and barns and furnished cattle, seed and tools. The tenants for themselves and their heirs agreed to pay him a fixed rent forever in stock and produce and, further, to grind at the owner’s mill and neither to hunt nor fish. Judge Westbrook, in whose office I worked, was counsel and collector for the patroons, notably for the manors of Livingston and Van Benssalner— two little kingdoms in tiic heart of the great republic. Mr. Louis Latour of Jefferson coun­ ty whom I had met in the company of Mr. Dunkelberg, came during my last year there to strud,,' law in the office of the judge, a privilege for which he-was Indebted to the influence of Senator Wright, I understood. He was a gay- Lothario, always noasting of his love affairs, nnd I had little to do with him. One day in May near the end of my two years In Cobleskill Judge West­ brook gave me two writs to serve on settlers in the neighborhood of Bald­ win Heights for ionpayment of rent. He told me what I knew, that there NOW IMISES BOO CHICKENS After Being Relieved of Or. ganic Trouble by Lydia P * Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.

If so I was not to press the matter, but bring them back and he would give them to the sheriff. “I do not insist on your taking this task upon you,” he added. “I want a limn of tact to go and talk with these people and get their point of view. If yon don’t care to undertake it I’ll send another man.” “I think I would enjoy the task,” I said in ignorance of that hornet's nest back In tlie bills. “Take Pnrvis with you,” he said. “He can take care of the horses, and as those baek-couatry folk are a little lawless it will be just as well to have a witness with yoi. They tell me that Purvis is a man Cf nerve and vigor.” I had drafted my letters for the day and was about to close my desk and start on my journey when Louis La- tour came in and announced that he had brought the writs from the judge 3nd was going with me. “I wouldn’t miss it for a thousand dollars," he remained. “By Jove! I think we’ll have ii bully time.” ,“I don’t object to your going but you must rememfc :r that I am in com­ mand,” I said, a little taken back, for I had no good opiniaa either of his prudence or his company, “The judge told me that I could go but that I should be under your or­ ders,” he answered. 'Tm not going to fee a fool. I’m trying to establish a reputation for aood sense myself.” Wg got our dinners and set out soon after one o’clock. I had read the deeds of the men we were to visit. They were brothers and lived on ad­ joining farms ivith leases which cov­ ered three hundred and fifty Oeras Clf land. Their great-grandfather had agreed to pay a yearly rent forever if sixty-two bushels of good, sweet, met: chantiible, winter vSieat., eight yearling cattle and four sheep in good flesh and sixteen fat hens, all to be delivered In the city of Albany on the first day of January of each year. So, feeling thsit I was engaged in a just cause, I bravu- Iy determined to serve Oie writs i!f possible. I rode In silence, thinking of Sally and of those beautiful days now reced­ ing into the past and of my aunt and uncie. I had written a letter to them every week and one or the other had answered it.

DNOEB THE AHGH OF H Y Record of Regim ent Provee It W orthy of AU Honors Am erica and North Carolina Can Bestow. Newport News, Ta. (Special.)—Hav­ ing won in four short but terrible months of warfare undying fame through its operations with each of the three American armies in Prance, materially assisting in blasting out the break of the Kremheild line, the 113th field artillery is resting in an American camp, joyous in the thought that a few days hence they will be again among those they left behind when they sailed from New York last May 2G. After a troubled night's rest 011 tiie Santa Teresa which Iironght the regi­ ment here from Prance, the boys came ashore. Battery after battery pissed up the gangway, each man receiving a cake of chocolate, a doughnut and a Inge package of cigarettes, hut they never looked up and tiie redness ol Lhcir faces hardly all could have been at­ tributed to the chill of the morning. Tramp, tramp, in a thunder of sound they traversed the pier and into the street, with Old Glory and the regimental colors Guttering in tiie brisk breeze. Tramping with the hearing of victorious heroes, they of the. khaki line marched under the arch of victory, nearly completed by the North Carolina citizens of this town and their neighbors. It was fit­ ting that a unit of the Thirtieth divi­ sion should be the first, to pass under this massive and artistic work of ma­ sonry and the record of this crack unit justifies the assertion that it is worthy of ail and more of the honors that America and North Carolina can bestow. Pressure Foi LIu Ick Action. Swamped by letters- and telegrams asking him to appoint anywhere frotr 10 to 25 members of the North Caro­ lina highway commission. Governor Bickett who had meant to take his time in selecting four men to direct the $22,800,000 road projerct written last week into law.' may be driven to make his appointment earlier in self- defense. The name most persistently offered is that of Henry Branson Varnei',. good roads bug for 10 years and pub­ lisher of the only turnpike magazine south of New York or east of Chicago. Mr. Varner is chairman of Governor Bickett's prison, too. but he is first, last and all the time a road enthusi­ ast. He has more indorsements than any man in the state. The positions are more sought than any public station filled by Governor Bickett sim-e he began the governing business. The west, the center, and the east have their peculiar geograph­ ical appeal. Then there is a member- at-large. The members receive for their actual work a per diem of $10 and expenses. The chairman of the commission wopdl draw a wage of $5.- 500 and expenses. 0--e Bureau to Be Retained.

Completion of the hard-surfaced road front New Bern to Greensboro, "provided the matter is pushed enough.” by the end of the coming summer, was prophesied yesterday by- Mr. W. S. Fallis, engineer of the North Carolina Highway Commission. TVork in Alamance county is al­ ready under way. Mr. Fallis announc­ ed. and plans are completed for the road in Durham, Orange, and Wak-1 counties. Bids are called for a part. Mr. Fallis stated that he had re­ ceived informal applications from all the counties but one in the New Bern- Greensboro route to take advantage of the Federal aid this season. The one excepted county, Lenoir, is push­ ing a $2,000,000 bond issue, so is sure to be in with the rest. In the four counties mentioned 17 miles of pavement are to be built in Orange, 10 to 12 in Durham, the same in Wake and 25 in Johnston. Ala­ mance has 13.4 miles to do. “The road can be built this summer if the matter is pushed,” said Mr. Fal­ lis. This is a Federal aid road, which means that the county will pay one- fourth of the cost, the State one- fourth and the Federal government the remaining half. Am endments to C onstttut’on. No legislative act whs cons'rf"rcd more thoroughly by the General As­ sembly than Governor Dough!in’s pro­ posed amendment to the State consti­ tution. It was gone over in detail at hearings before both the house and senate finance committees and was discussed at length on both floors of the legislature. It now goes to the people for consideration with the pre­ diction from wise public leaders that it will be adopted. Two amendments are embodied in the bill, one being to change the con­ stitution as to taxing incomes and the other lowering the nerlod of residence to one year in the Ptate as a requisite for voting. No Need to Forw ard P ap ers. Washington (Special) .—Regulations governing the payment of $60 bonus to honorably discharged soldiers were amended by the War Department to­ day to permit the acceptance by dis­ bursing officials of a “true copy” of discharge certificates. Heretofore the original certificates were required, but it was found many soldiers re­ fused to part with the papers, prefer­ ring to lose the bonus rather than risk the loss of official evidence of their honorable release from the army. All copies submitted under the amendment authorized must be certi­ fied by the army recruiting officer nearest the soldier’s residence. • W om en's Clubs to Help. Presidents of woman’s clubs in ev­ ery quarter of the State are receiving from Mrs. Clarencs A. Johnson, pres­ ident of the Federated Clubs of the State, an urgent letter asking that all these clubs be actively interested in Clean-Up Week. March 24-29. as desig­ nated by Insurance Commissioner and Fire Marshal James R. Young. Mrs. Johnson suggests that, if necessary, the Woman’s Club In a community take the initiative in this clean-up movement that means so much for safety, health and tidy appearance.

The W areliouse Bill just enacted is one of the most constructive pieces of legislation passed at the present session. The bill as passed is essen­ tially the same as that introduced early in the session by Senator W. B. Cooper, except that it taxss a!I cotton ginned for the next two years twenty- five cents per bale to provide a guar­ antee and revolving building fund. Under the term s of the Act the Board of Agriculture can loan 50% of the needed money for constructing ware­ houses where there are no facilities. Among the benefits expected from the bill are the following: 1st. It will immediately improve storage facilities for North Carolina cotton and thereby insure more gradu­ ated m arketing of the staple^-a re­ form for which, the present crisis shows the imperative need. This will benefit every man who grows cotton no m atter whether he stores a pound or not. As providing the facilities for othrs who do store, will cause the m arket to be steadied and advanced for every man who sells without stor­ ing. • 2nd. The receipts of every ware­ house will be good at any bank any­ where and enable us to borrow wherever money is cheapest. The bill makes provision for the su­ perintendent to borrow for others in New York or elsewhere. 3rd. It Is believed that it will greatly reduce the cost of storage through a- reduction In Insurance charges and rates. The insurance rate on cotton stored in State W are­ houses in South Carolina is only about one-third the present rate in this 4th. All cotton stored in the ware­ houses is to be graded and stapled by State or Federal experts and the- su­ perintendent is authorized to act as broker for those having cotton stored when so requested. It .is expected that a record of the grade and staple of every bale stored will be kept a t a central office and that mills and large exporters will endeavor to locate cot­ ton that they desire and make pur­ chases through the superintendent. Taken all. together there appears to be great possibilities for the benefit of cotton growers in the bill aud the Cotton Association a t Raleigh hopes to see • them made available at an early date.

You are often told to “beware of cold.” but why? We will tell you: Every cold weakens the lungs, lowers the vital! ty and paves the way for the more ser­ ious diseases. People feho contract pneumonia first take cold'. The longer a cold hangs on, the greater the danger, es- oecialiy from the germ diseases, as a cold prepares the system for the reception and developm ents the germs of consumption diptheria, scarlet fever and whooping cough. The quicker you get rid of your cold, the less the danger of contracting one of these diseases. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has a great reputation .as a cure for colds and can be depended on. It is pleasant to take. Local News Item: Mr. and Mrs \Voodrow Wilson spent a few days i:: Washington recently, returning <o Paris last week. They report a nice trip to our country. WHY SUFFER SO?

Reynolds Tobacco Company, Winston-Salem, N. C. t h e Tia o y s m o k e WILL THE SOUTH REDOCE ACREAGE? (By Theo. H. Price, Editor, Commerce and Finance, a Prominent Financial Magazine. "Ia the South bluffing again or will it really reduce its acreage as threat­ ened this time?” is in effect the ques­ tion that not a few cotton manufac­ turers have been asking us during the past week. It is realized, of course, that if the next crop is not over nine million bales and the European demand in 1920 revives to anything like pre-war proportions that cotton would rise to a price that would compel the clos­ ing of many mills, but In contemplat­ ing such a possibility one can never forget the difficulties that have al­ ways been encountered in getting co­ operation among the six or seven mil­ lion people who grow cotton in the South. Mr. J. N. Carpenter, of Natchez, Miss., who is widely known and re­ spected In the cotton trade, writes us under date of February 23 as follows: “Up to a week ago I thought the re­ duction talk was like it .was in 1895- 1899 and 1905, but I now think that it is sincere, for everyone I meet really intends to follow the pledge that has been given—I will make every tenant on my plantation follow it to the let­ ter, as it is to my financial interest that they should do so. ‘My aim is to pick all my cotton before the average frost date, Octo ber 28. Do not pooh-pooh the acreage reduction but put your ear to the The Cadanian I . W. C. A. has re­ ceived permission to place a Y. W. C.

Por ourselves we should say that the success of the reduction movement will probably be In direct proportion to the skepticism with which it is regarded. If it comes to be generally believed that the next crop will not exceed &lne million bales then prices will go up and many will ijlant a . larger acre­ age than they had earlier intended to cultivate. 7 if, on the other hand, no one be­ lieves that the acreage will be re­ duced then many fearing lower prices will by self-interest be induced to re­ strict their production. It seems to be a case iu which an advance now would make for lower prices next year while the' present continuance of lagging m arkets until after it is too late to plant cotton might really bring about a cotton famine twshra months from now.
