Mr. Bryan’s bitterest attack was on Governor Edwards.

In 1908 It was hisf Opposition to the administration and ideals of- President Theodore Roosevelt that caused Taft’s election. . And now he is facing 1920 with high hopes. He favored prohibit­ ion. Therefore every ardent pro* hibitiouist will be for him. He fav­ ored woman suffrage. Hence every woman will vote for him. He was' andls for peace, will be for him.

Mr. Editor:—I have recently dis­ covered that Davie county is in­ fested with a gang of land sharks who are going around in the ,coun­ try taking options on the farmers' land, or buying it where they are able to buy at a bargain price. In many instances they are paying the farmers not a cent for very valu­ able options on their farms and are making big money off the .poor, hard-working fanners. I am writ­ ing this article in order to warn the farmers and put them on their guard against these sharks in ^hu­ man form. When one of them comes around to ta k e an option 'on your land make him pay you well before you sign an option, deed, and if you are not' well up on the conditions of these option deeds, you had better get some one to d ra w the papers who does know, so your' rights will he protected. ' I have learned of both white and col­ ored people being caught; by these sharks. Every farmer in this coun­ ty who has land is entitled to what it is worth, for a great many of them have worked hard to buy a home, and now that the price has advanced very • much, many of these hard working fanners do not realize how high land has gone, and are induced to sign away their rights in some instances for little more than half what their land will bring. My advice to you is not sign anything unless you . are sure you know what you are signing. Make them pay you enough for these options to justify you getting some one to see that your rights are protected. You don’t, neces­ sarily have to employ a lawyer, for there , are good business men scat­ tered around over tile county whom you could consult before signing away youi; birthright for a mess of pottage to these land Sharks. There are, I am sorry to sayj .taeiu roving ' ' klryiwho will do almost anything for™a dollar, and you have got to watch-as well as pray to be delivered from all kinds of sharpers who are abroad in the land. Rest Efesured they are not after your property for what there is in it for you; they are af­ ter what they can ogle you or some one else out of, by hook or by crook. Give them a wide berth, for. some of them would rob the penny off the dead man’s eye, if they thought they could get away with it without beingcaught. From time to time I shall _try and give some information through the pa­ pers, which I hope will be of ser­ vice to my country friends. I am not just working for dollars alone. I want to be of some service to my fellowman as I pass along through life- -I desire to do some good whether it puts dollars in iny pock­ et or not. It’s a poor kind of- citi­ zen wEo lives for self 'alone, and who cares not who sinks, just so he swims. I would fllike to help make Davie county one of, if not the best county in the State, • and there is no reason why it: should not be, and it will be if we all pull together for- those things which make for the upbuilding and up­ lifting of a good citizenship.' stand ready to do my part of the pulling and th.e piiiishing for the top of the hill.

I n COPYR KJHT “SIT DOWN I” Synopsis—Senor Antonio de Ia Guerra, a fine old Spaniard living on his ancestral estate on the American side of the Mexican bor­ der, Is informed by his American lawyer, Dempton, that there is a technical error in his will. . He thereupon signs a new will, without reading Tt. aWhile this is going on his adorable granddaughter and heiress, Senorlta Teresa, is out on her rose-covered balcony listening W American love-making from Billy Stanway, owner of the Fainted Rock ranch. Teresa goes to join her grandfather and finds him gone, with the drawing room In disorder ..and blood on the floor. The Amer­ ican takes command of the situa­tion. Senor Hduardo Ramon Torre, a hated kinsman, arrives. Stanway and the De la Guerra ranch hands return from vain pursuit of the bandits. The new will disinherits Teresa and makes Torre sole heir. Captain Juarez, - nominally repre­ senting the bandits, appears and demandfi $20,000 ransom for De la Guerra. Torre, as heir, assumes control.

Perhaps you, prlma mia, are better Informed?” “Perhaps,” she answered him quiet­ ly, though the color still ran red In her cheeks. “And perhaps,” added Stanway sig­ nificantly, “Senor Torre would be glad to have knowledge of this banco; would be glad to have the money handed over to his emissary?” “Emissary?” Again- Torre’s black brows arched. • “The fabrications of the Americano’s suspicions are truly wonderful I He would suspect me of robbing myself?” He laughed insolently. Stanway looked questloningly at the girl., '.■ “Prlma mla,” began Torre.The girl whirled upon him, her eyes flashing. '. ' ■ “Senor Torre,” she cried passion­ately, “yon make It necessary for me to remind you that our relationship Is not of my choosing, and that we are not dose enough for you to call me cousin I If you find It necessary to address me at all I should like to be addressed' as Senorita de la Guerra. Please remember.”, Torre flushed angrily but managed his careless smile.“As you wish, Senorlta de -Ia Guer­ra,” he retorted. “May I suggest something?” “What is it?” shortly."Merely tills: This man who calls himself Captain Juarez may be a rank impostor, as well as a scoundrel. Be­fore even considering the. matter of a ransom would It not be well to ask him to prove to us that he knows at least, where our kinsman Is? If you rang for Pedro again and sent him with the message—” ' Teresa rang and sat ,In a musing silence until Pedro came. "Pedro,” she said then, “tell Captain. Juarez that we are considering his. proposition. Tell him further that we wish to be certain ; that he really comes from the senor.” . Pedro bowed, withdrew, and re-; turned almost immediately, his face strangely white, his hand shaking as he held out somethlng .to the girl. “It is the master’s ring,” lie said, deeply agitated.'" “The ring he wore always upon his left hand. Senorifa, senorlta,” his voice choking, his eyes glistening, “you will not let them kill him?”“No, Pedro.” She took the ring, hhr own eyes shining. “If harm comes to him, Pedro,” she went oh steadily, “we shall know what to do, shall we hot?” Pedifo made no spoken answer. But his eyes, suddenly hard, and cruel, went straight to Torre, resting full' of meaning upon him. Then, turning ab­ruptly, the servant left the room.' “It is papa grande’s ring, Senor Stanway.” She ljmored Torre entirely. “I am afraid that Captain Juarez speaks the truth.”Stanway stood with drawn brows, Jhtaring at .the ,.door. The whole, affair -Was so eloquent of-rascality on the ffi5|t of the debonair, black-mus- Vhched Torre It was s o inconceivable \tha&diis presence here now was hot a part' of dark design, so ridiculous' to suppose that Antonio de la Guerra-tod diet really purposed: disinheriting, the "girl who was dearer to him than daughters to most men—and yet what to . d o ? ; . vi ■■■' - i ■ ' ■ .Shddenly Stahway bent forward, whispering swiftly, guardedjy, to the girij'•And then, after Sfenway-had fin-, lshed and stood erect -again;, looking down ^npon her; as Torre .watched, his oyeB! harrowing suspiciously, her hand hfenched;' her chin «auated,_ de­ termination came into her mien and voice, “It Is a chance, senor,” she said. She rose and stood looking at him steadily, still ignoring Torre. “It Is a game of dice with our destinies.” “And you will' play it, senorlta?” eagerly from the American. She made a'little gesture as . though she were handing something to him."I place the dlcebox In your hands. May I, Senor Billy?” “Then,” cried Stanway, “we must waste no time I CallJPedro." . She rang. Torre, still watching sus­ piciously, made no comment. Pedro came In Ills swift, Silent fashion. “Send word to Gaucho to come to the house immediately,” Stanway told him. “Let him bring three men with him. Let them come armed, AmHsee that Captain Juarez does not leave the house. I shall—entertain Senor Torre.”A quick light of understanding leaped up In Pedro’s eyes. He turned with a brief,..grunted “Bueno,” and hurried on his errand. - JTorre had leaped to his feet, his face crimson. “What does this mean?” he cried sharply. “As heir to the De la Guerra estates I demand—” “Sit down!” Stanway’s voice was very cool, but It rang with an unmls- “8lt Downlw1 takable sternness. “We are going to begin .our game of dice presently. And you will do well, senor, In playing your imnd. to keep right on smoking and— Slt down!”His hand moved a very little as he spoke, coming to. rest upon his right hip. Torie sat down. - CHAPTER VI. . A Lawyer Plays Witness.~‘fVldal has returned,' senor.”Billy Stanway awoke with a start. The.late afternoon,sun; was streaming through the drawn, curtains of the guestroom to which he had been shown, and Pedro stood over his bed.“Vidal' has brought. Mr. Dempton back with him?" he asked, sitting up. “SI, . senor,” grinned Pedro. “I think that Mr. Dempton did not like to come;, but”—and he shrugged elo­ quently—“you know Vidal, senor.” “Torre and Juarez have had no word together? They- know nothing of our' having brought Dempton to the rancho?” Sv.:“No, senior.” v'' Stanway slipped out of bed, his great sinewy body: towering for a mo­ment over the lesser form of the breed.- “Von are a gentleman, Pedro,” he said warmly. “Vour master, when he comes back to "us, wili have you to thank as much as anyone. Now, will you ask your senorlta. to come to the library? And then will you see that Vidal brings the lawyer there?”Pedro went about his errand, and Stanway, dressing swiftly, went to the library, which he bad chosen because , It was at one end of the house, and "so a-place In which to converse with­out fear of-being overheard by Torre or !the captain.Vidal was/there before him, a big man .with a beautiful body, and a scarred, ugly ;face.: And with him, looking grotesquely small, pitifully in­efficient In the; presence , of his guard was Dempton. • ':-s - “Mr. Stanway, sir.” The lawyer was upon! his feet. In an instant, his face red wltii anger, his; speech seem­ing to'frotlr.up In. a stream of.barely artfcutoted, Words^irom: between his v^thlng lipA' “Are you. one of-thisdamnable" consplfecy,":sir?^ tt brig­ andage; it Is outlawry; it is sncm defiance'of-every statute-*-”“Good afternoon,.

The senorlta wlll. be here. In a mo­ment” The door opened and Teresa came In. She nodded brightly at Stanway, bestowed a look upon Vidal which plunged him into an ecstasy of delight, and with no word to Dempton went to. Stanway’s side. “Have I kept yon. waiting?”, she asked, '“No. T came in just a second be­ fore you.” He drew out a chair for her and turned-to Vidal. “Vidal,-we have a few words to' say to JAr. Demp­ton.. Will you wait in the patio? I shall call you when Lwe want you.” “Dempton,”' Stanway went on, IVhat passed between you and the Senor ds la Guerra last night?”“He sent for me to make a change In his will,” said Dempton glibly, “He gave no reasons for what he was do­ ing, although he must have noted my surprise.”“Did yon know that he has been engaged during several years on his memoirs?” ~ ' Dempton, a lawyer trained to ask just such questions as that, looked at Stanway quick.y, suspiciously. He hesitated a moment before answering “I have heard him speak of it.” - Stanway smiled at the girl, which she- returned, and Dempton, plainly puzzled, watched them closely. “The law is rather severe In the punishment It metes out to kidnapers, is it not, Mr. Dempton?”“Yes.”“There Is what you men- of the law term an accessory before the fact?” “Certainly,” snapped the lawyer. “But if you care to consult me in s legal capacity—”“I don’t,”-lightly. "We are sending, for Mr. Branson of Branson & How­ard to ad visw" us.”Dempton’s tongue ran back and 'forth between his dry Ups.“Now,” went on Stanley, withoul waiting for an answer, “how much money did Torre pay you for your part?”Again Dempton had leaped to his feet, his face flushed, his eyes ablaze. “You mean to insinuate—”"Sit. down!” Stanway caught him by the shoulders and drove him back Into his chair. “Did you know that after you had gone and before he was spirited aWay Senor de la_ Guerra added certain notes to his memoirs?” “What are you driving at?”, fumed Dempton.Stanway stepped to th%, door. “Vidal,” he called, “Mr. Dempton will remain here In the library. You will see that lie does not grow lone­some?: Bueno.” He came back to Dempton’s side and added quietly: ‘T am driving at this: the senor made certain observations upon the charac­ter of Americanos. He mentioned the fact ihat a certain man had just come and gone whom he did not trust; ho stated why that man had come; he mentioned a flaw that that man had prqjehded to find— Ah!”'as a look of sudden understanding and a quick fear with It leaped Into Dempton’s small, eyes. “Now you see? Shall we leave them, senorlta?”Terega stepped through the door, Stanway following and closing It after, them.“We’ll have him scared out'of bis life in no time,” he chuckled. “By to­ morrow morning he’ll be ready to tell everything he knows if we’ll just promise him twenty-four honrs to dig out In.”. “You are very wonderful, ■ Senor Billy!”.The look she flashed him was un­ mistakably full of gratitude;, and his leaping, hope sought to read somethingelse in it. _“Teresita!” he whispered.But she had slipped from him, laughing, and a lacy mantllla_was in his handsj and from the farjside of the room, as she whisked into the, hall­way, she wafted him a kiss from her pink finger tips. “Teresita!” he urged.'But the door had closed.“And,” he muttered, his eyes dark­ening, “after all, when I find her piip* grande for her he’s just going to run me off the rancho!

Trap Hill, N. C.—Mrs. Eadora Hol­ brook, recently made this statement: <T was very weakly for three or four years with womanly troubles. I was much worse at special times. Every month I would have to lie In bed for three or four days. My chief suffering was In my back. I could not tell how badly it ached, but it seemed as it it could not pos­ sibly ache worse. Whenever !.would get tired, or If I was much on my feet, it would ache. Cardul was all the medicine I took.. I saw, with the first bottle, that I was being benefited, but I kept right on for five bottles' regularly. By this time I was so I could do all my own work, which for some time I had not been able to do.That Is the only time I ever wok It regularly, but I always have It on hand to use when I do not feel well and it always helps me.” With a successful record of over 40 years to Its credit, Cardui has proven Its merit In the treatment of many of the simple ailments peculiar to women.Try it At your druggists.—Adv.

H. Clark, a prosperous farmer living at Conley,' Ga; “For three years,’’ he continued, ‘ ‘her health was so bad that she had ho appetite and she was all the time troubled with indigestion, complain­ ing of-awful pains in her stomach. After eating a meal her food would sout and she would swell up- with gas. till she would be miserable. She complained of backache and a pain in her side and she also suffered from terrible headaches. Medicines didn’t seem to:help her any, but I had been reading so much about Tanlac that I decided to get some for her to try. “Before her first bottle was more than-half,gone I could see that she was much better,and she kept right on improving and gaining in every way. She can eat anything she wants now and it all agrees with her. She never has. indigestion like she did" before, all those pains are gone.and I never hear her complain­ ing of a thing. Tanlac brought my wife out in a hurry: and rid her of her ailments, and it is the only medicine that did her any good.” Tanlacis sold by leading drug­ gists everywhere.

I ain in the “sunset’Vof life, and as I sit these long winter evenings, it is but natural that I should fhink of old friends, many of whom I will never see again, and of the changes that have taken place in the days I have lived and I am now numbered with the old meu. Many changes have taken place, and I wonder if we have really dm- proved when it is all rightly consid­ ered. Our good women" do not have to card and spin as of old. Yet I would be glad.to have, some of those good old times back again for a little while at least. It seems I could be young again for a time. But it is impossible. AsI grow older, I am less able to perform the duties of this fast age, and hence am looked upon as an old fogy, or an old broken down horse, only fitfor leather and hog feed. And how inhuman that is! As I think more and more of the days when I was young, it seems that even our minds have changed. What was right when I was young is wrong now, and what was wrong then, is right now. - Yet, it seems we are little if any better than we were 50 years ago, And to one of my age, it seems we are growing worse. Our officers or leaders of the churches do not measure up to some of those older men in their daily lives, relative to one another. With all our improve ments, church members show - less love and friendship, for each other. We then passed the hat" around. Now we use a nice plate or -basket. And we knew and heard nothing about a drive to get money for this or that, and no assessments to build churches or for pastors’ salaries. I often think we need a drive for Bi ble religion. ThenIthinkwewould have to add money to it, if we ac­ complished anything,but the money would be the by-product, and not the religion, the" by-product. We buy our way now. Churches were few; Preachers lived in the country. If hischurch paid him, he was thankful..If nOt, it was alright. • Many preachers never saw a college. Most people walked to church. Some, rode- in wagons. Chte who had a buggy was envied. Had preaching once a month. Neighbors visited each other. Now it is different. Butdo they accomplish any more good, even with prohibition?

MonroeMayor Backs the School Teachers. •- Monroe Journal. Mayor Sikes has requested teach­ ers of the Monroe schools to notify him when an irate parent, mother or father, comes into. their class rooms and creates a disturbance. “Whether they be high or low,” he says, ‘“a policeman will be dis­ patched to the school to eject them. ’ ’ This action was taken by the mayor when he learned of a scene between Miss Walton, one of the teachers, and the mother of one of her-students. The mother, enraged on account of a whipping adminis­ tered to her son by the teacher, marched into Miss Walton’s class­ room yesterday morning, and be­ fore the class, it is said, -threatened and abused her. “I am heartily tired of parents interfering with the conduct of our schools,” declared Mr. Sikes, “and I -am going to put a stop to their abusive manner if it takes the en­ tire police force to do it.” Miss Walton was congratulated by Mayor Sikes on the defiant at­ titude she assumed towards the mother in question. “As the mayor of the town,” he telephoned her, “I want to express my pleasure over tbe way in which‘you repelled the woman who created the distur­ bance, and if she appears in your class room again, I want you to notify me at once. ” Themother in question, it is said, threatened to whip "Miss. Walton, She informed her that she was - not’ afraid of her, arid that furthermore she would whip" her son at any time she thought he needed chastisement. Colored parents are also giving the school authorities some trouble. The principal of the Morris street graded school will be charged in the recorder’s court Saturday morn­ ing with whipping one of Jim Simtns hoys. This boy used vulgar lan­ guage in the presence of his teacher it is said, for which the colored principal administered to him .a sound thrashing. - Were Yon One? A.preacher at the close of one of his sermons said, ‘‘Let all in the house who are paying -their debts stand up. ” Every man woman and child with one exception, rose to their feet." “Now, every man not paying his debts stand up.” The exception, a careworn’ hungry looking individual, ciothed in his last.suminer’s suit slowly assumed a perpendicular position. “How is it, jny friend,& asked the minister, ‘ ‘you are the only man not able to meet his obligations?” I run a newspaper,” he ans­ wered meekly, “and the brethren here who stood up are my subscrib­ ers, and—” ;Letus pray,” exclaimed the minister. ^ i • We hope, having read ,the above that'a number of our subscribers are going to say, "Let us pay.

A Hard Winter* After a somewhat hilarious New Year’s day a man called up his son before it was light and told him to go and harness, the donkey; The young man obeyee,- but did not take a light with him. It so hap­ pened that the night before had been very frosty, and an old cow had'strayed into the stable and driven the donkey out. .Thinking the young man a long time absent the father went to ascertain the cause of the delay.' “Jack, what are you doing?” he called when he- found the stable in darkness.“ Why I can’t get the collar .over the .don­ key’s head, replied Jack. “His ears are frozen.” .

Out there in central and eastern Eu­ rope,^frontiers are fine-tooth combs, that (ftlay trains for hours at every crossing point. Some of the new fron­ tiers are “flying walls” of soldiers with fixed bayonets. Others are guarded fences. Travelers without exceptional cre­ dentials go through searching exam­ inations, often bodily “frlskings.” Soldiers armed' to the teeth -guard the trains and passengers during ex­ aminations aqd customs inspections, to see that nobody gets out or in with­ out the official papers. . Boads a t frontier points are also guarded by soldiers who preside over striped gates that go up and down Ilka the crossing gates of American rail­ ways. % Passcorts and vises in the new coun­ tries are made as difficult as possible. Business men are hel<#up weeks, as a rule. The official idea seems to be to keep everybody that’s in the country In, and to bn* everybody else oufc Greek to Father. Son—Father, I passed Cicero today.

A small boy of Columbus-Tvas out riding with his mother one day re- . cently, when he saw several pumpkins In a field. He wished to stop the ma­ chine and get one, but the m other ex­ plained that this would not do, that the pumpkins- on the vine, were the property of the man who owned the field, and that In due time he would gather them for winter use. The boy •was convinced, and said no* more un­ til he happened to see a pumpkin un­ attached to a vine, lying at the side of the road. “Well, mother,” he- said, “I guess we tan have that one.

He thereupon signs a new will, without reading it. In the meantime ■ his • adorable granddaughter and heir-. ess, Senorita Teresa, .is out on her.' rose-covered balcony, listening to American love-making from Billy Stanway, owner of the Painted Rock ranch. Teresa, going to join her grandfather,' finds him gone, with the drawing room In disorder and blood on the floor. The-Amer­ican takes command of the situa- -' tion. SenOr Eduardo Rainon Torre, a hated kinsman of the - -JDe la Guerras, arrives. Stanway and the De la Guerra ranch hands return from vain pursuit of the bandits. The new will disinherits Teresa and . makes Torre sole heir. . Captain 1 Juarez, nominally representing the bandits, appears and demands $20,- OOO ransom for De la Guerra. Torre, as heir, tries.to assume control and -demands that Teresa produce the - ransom.' Stanway detains Torre and Juarez and . his, men kidnap Dempton and .bring him to the-ranch: Stanway demands a c'on'fes- ■ “sion from the lawyer. CHAPTER VII. A Rat in a Trap? "Eduardo R am onTorre 1 lounging be­ fore one of the deep windows of the drawing room, smoked his cigarettes and hummed gay snatches of song, evidently quite happy, seemingly un­ aware- o f the presence of Gaucho Mo­ rales and a brother vaquero, who, oh the other hand, kept their eyes always upon the young Spaniard and. their hard, brown bands close to their hips. The door opened and Stanway came In. Torre did not turn, did not cease his gay music. The two vaqueros rose and- stood' looking at the American curiously. “Torre,” called Stanway bluntly. Torre turned, smiled, ended a last high note clearly, and only then bowed very deeply to the rancher. “A t your service, Senor Stanway,” he said lightly. “Gancho;” said Stanway, fo r-th e moment ignoring' Torre. “I shall be with the senor for a little. If you and your companion Will w ait .for me in the patio Tll call you W henT w ant you.” - “Si, senor,” responded the vaquero promptly. And from the door,' as by way of afterthought: “We have not searched him, senor. No doubt he is armed.” _ “No doubt,” dryly, from the rancher. “It.is all right, Gaucho.” The two cowboys w ent out. Then pleasantly, insolently, Torre admitted to StanWay that he had been respon­ sible for Senor de la Guerra's disap­ pearance, that he knew where he Was, and that the Captain was bis ‘'own agent ; ; “What,” asked the rancher curious­ ly, “do you gain" from such an admis­ sion?”- ' _ "7 . “Two things, senor. In-*|fae .first place I am meeting you upon V b asis upon which we may be 'qble to come to terms. It seems th a t you are really the one for me to 'deal with. In the second place”’ a n d 'th e smile in" his eyes was hard and cruel enough now, ‘I am taunting a man'whom I do not like. T hat is a pleasure.” . • , Stanway frowned,' not understand­ ing. . , .- “Bring us back the senor and you gain your/ ' freedom—your safety, if you don’t waste too much tim e getting out of the country,” he said. “You; ask- a great 1 deal.” Torre pulled thoughtfully at his little mus­ tache. “And you offer a very little. For I shall have my. freedom and safety—why, senor, a t -any Tim e I please I” “You refuse m y offer?” • '.‘Absolutely.” “Even,” went on Stanway coolly, “after your personal- danger is aug­ mented by Dempton’s - confession of complicity?” - For the first time the rancher saw a quick light of fear leap into Torre’s eyes. Then the lids dropped a-littU a very little, but enough to bide the eyes—and in an instant Torre’s man­ ner was again careless, indifferent. “A random -shot tha£ no?” H e lift­ ed his eyes once more, and they were frank and m irthful again.- “I am (sorry that it does not find a target” “W hat will yon say when you are confronted with Dempton’s written and signed confession?” ■•“That will never, be. I know that he has confessed to nothing.” Stanway leaned forward and tapped his. forefinger upon the table between them. “I shall, have Dempton’s con­ fession within twenty-four hours I” Torre shook his head, smiling his in­ scrutable smile. ■-■■■/■. “I have a counter-offer to make,” said Torre. “Teresita is to pay to Oaptain Juarez the money which-he demands—twenty thousand dollars. W ithin twenty-four hours from the time that the money is paid her grand­ father will walk into this drawing room unharmed.” ' ... “And if sh efefu sesy o u ro ffert” “Then) twenty-four hours after her- refusal, her. grandfather will be dead. Then I shall be the heir to the entire property. You will accuse me of hav­ ing murdered him, and I shall , deny.' It will go to the courts. In the end I shall be cleared, You see, senor, times are fortunately turbulent along the- border, and w hat has happened may so easily be laid a t the door of the poor devils of insurrectos. You can create'suspicion, you can make trouble. But then there is the will, properly drawn and witnessed, and— there is something else!” v “And that?” curiously, wondering how far Torre would go In showing his hand. .... “There will be other/w itnesses of whom you do not guess yet—witnesses carefully selected, who will not be shaken. In ' a point they make. And they will sw ear that Senor de la Guerra became very angry with his- granddaughter upon the very day of his disappearance;-that he quarreled .openly with h er; that he vowed he Would disinherit her, and that he sent immediately for his lawyer to make the new will. Do you care, senor, to know w hat'these witnesses will prove to be .the effuse of the quarrel?” “Well?” asked- Stanw ay.: - ., ■, “It Will be that Teresa, heedless of her grandfather's hatred of all Ameri­ canos, had fallen in love with; one of them ; th at she defied De la Guerra, and swore th at she would m arry— youF’ ,. .' “Why I” gasped .the rancher. “It’s perjury I” ' ; “Certainly.” The smile merely deepened upon Torre’s handsome face. “B ut let us think not of the legal m orality of it but of the effect, upon a jury. Who, when this point is made, will seem the one who would be desir­ ous of the disappearance of the old gentleman? “Who then will appear In the light of the abductor? I leave it to you,” busy over a new cigarette;. “i f . the point will not hold.” Stanway’s* mouth hardened. V He saw that if Torre had m ade one mistake—if Dempton were in. reality w hat he appeared, a weak, tool^yet the young Spaniard had planned patos-- takingl'y elsewhere. “You may m ark a certain seeming discrepancy,” w ent on the; Spaniard. “I suppose the De la Guerra estate is worth a million. And I am asking U () ,A * s a - ♦ _ ± C L - Had Given Him Her Hand and a Wan _ ■■Smile. only ,twenty thousand dollars to re­ nounce all claim, free the old gentle­ man; go away and-leave you, senor, to pay your court to the heiress!” ■ H e laughed softly a t’ Stanway’s quick, angry frown; and continued sw iftly: “It is because I have very urgent need-of ten thousand dollars; It would save me from an em barrassing posi­ tion, senor. : You -do not guess- how embarrassing. And I am very modest­ ly asking-m erely twice my actual needs. . - •■■■■ - ... . - “Truer there Is more to gain by slit­ ting- the. throat of "my esteemed kins­ man. and inheriting the whole.-- You see, I don’t mlnd'speaking frankly, tie-' tween'friends. “But,, on the other-hand, the danger of which.-yon .speak would be much greater—and I need the money now, not after the courts, can have had time to haggle over the will for a year or two. So., senor, you-have my offer. W hat do you say?” “I ;say,” cried Stanway hotly, “that you-arV a scoundrel, and T believe only so much of /what you say as I judge...wise.. If -Senor de Ia -Guerra dies, why then"you go to the hangman —provided-Gaucho/and his men'alloW yon to go that far: Y ou will save him to saveryour-’Own neck;- Do: yon abso­ lutely refuse to accept my proposi­ tion?” r - . “Absolutely. I shall m ake belter terms.” Stanway w ent to the door. “There Is going to be no more mak­ ing of terms,” he said briefly. “I shall talk to' you henceforward as T d talk to a rat In a trap!” - = Torre sprang up swiftly, his face flushing darkly w ith a; rush of angry blood. - -‘You shall see,” he cried harshly, “that even a rat in a trap may have sharp teeth. You fool, it is I w ho wffl offer terms—or dictate—a t m y pleas- u reI” ■ ' He turned aw ay with a short; ugly laugh. Stanway for the first tim e felt a little shock of positive dread.; fear that he w as risking too m uch; th at he had ho right to assum e this responsi­ bility. For there w as something. In Torre’s voice which told.him th at Uie m an was making no idle threat. CHARTER VIII. At Three O’clock. T he questions perplexing Stanway were These: “Is there a large force of men backing T orre and Juarez? Are they alone in the thing?” And there w as only one way to answer them. As the afternoon slipped by and dusk came down upon them, sweet and warm, through the groves of_orange and olive trees, Teresa sent word to the men’s quarters for all, excepting a half dozen of them, "to COm e to Jhe house. Those not coming In were to rem ain on guard over the corrals into which the saddle-horses had been herded, and to serve as sentinels along the bor­ der. The guard over Torre and Juarez was doubled; the two men w ere dis­ armed and assigned* to couches upon the opposite side of the drawing-room. Doors were fastened, windows locked, shutters draw n,-and the haci­ enda w as like an old fortress In time of siege. . . “I do not anticipate an attack,” Stan­ way smiled into Teresa’s grave face; “Surely the insurgents are not looking for complications w ith this country, B ut w e are taking no chances. I t wOtdd take a whole regiment of them to trou­ ble us here tonight.”.. ■ -'-1 - ‘ “ B ut are w e doing right?” she w his­ pered a little fearfully. “If w e gave them the money—It is so small a part of papa grande’s estate—he would be out of all danger. And as it is—” “I t is a bluff o f Torre’s, pure and simple,” he to ld . her. “If - anything should happen to Senor de la" Guerra, Torre and Juarez would not last fif­ teen m inutes w ith your little arm y of retainers, . senorilxti They talk big, both of them, but I am not afraid.”. ..But when she had given him her hand and a- wan smile by the way. of “Buenas noches,” he was not content until he himself had seen to the watch­ fulness of the men statio’ned-faere and there throughout the big house. And, by the way of-final precaution, he saw th at another m an slept th at night a t Pedro’s- side, in front of the seriorita’s door, and that both men were armed. H e had not again; gone to where Dempton fumed and worried in the li­ brary. It w as his thought to leave the law yer to chew, upon the cud of sus­ picion his own parting words had given him, to make the night long and un­ eventful for him, so’that his trembling little soul m ight have tim e'for thought! It w as late when Teresa heeded-his .urging and Went to her room. H e Irft her a t the foot of the stairs leading up to her cham bers; saw Pedro preparing to spend the night a t her doorway, and then w ent to his own room, decided to sleep until the stiller hours o f the night cam e; then- to ' superintend in- person the w atch which .was. bring kept throughout the house. •" On nls way to the wing of the build­ ing which had been given over to him, he passed through the drawing-room for the last time. Juarez seemed to be asleep upon his couch. H alf a dozen of Gaucho’s va;. queros, all armed, w ere scattered about the room, their quick eyes Show­ ing how alert w as the spirit within them. Torre, sitting a t a table -idly turning the leaves of an Illustrated book of poems, rose quickly when Stanway came into the room and stepped to his side.

Their secret is m ost rigidly preserved, and a t their death will be passed on to their next-of-kin, as it w as handed on to them by their parents.

D uring the per­ form ance of charming the snakes an ordinary Burmese band is used, while the charm ers squat on their haunches In front of the snake.

NORTH CAROLINA. WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. FEBRUARY 18, 1920. I NUMBER S3 Farmers Uoion Opposes It. ‘ 'The members of the North Car­ olina Farmers’ Union are too' per cent against the tax revaluation plan that is now going on in the state,” said R. H. W. Stone, of Guilford county, president of that organization, following a confer­ ence with the officials of the Farm­ ers’ Union . of seven counties at Charlotte, recently. ‘‘At the recent state convention the-union;went on record as being against the revaluation scheme, and gt evejy meeting of ,a county ; Union or a local union that we can hear from they have gone on - re­ cord unanimously against it.” The conference was one of four or five similar conferences being held over the state to more fully determine the sentiment of mem­ bers of the union with, the revalua­ tion scheme and to see what they ... are .thinking about along other " lines, Mr. Stone said. One con­ ference has been held at Rocky ‘ Mount, this attended by officers of county unions in .the eastern part of the state. Another at 'Winston- Salem and one at Raleigh later. - It is the plan to have the officers of a number of county, unions in a given locality" of the - state—and other members of the unions, too, if they care to attend—to meet President. Stone . and Secretary Faires and talk things over. : : Emphasizing the importance- of the farmer vote on the matter of . tax revaluation or any other, Mr. Stone said the farmer vote was a- bout 80 per cent: of the vote in the state. Asked if the • spokesmen of the union were in favor of amending the tax revaluation law or repeal­ ing it entirely, he said they were for repealing it entirely. "Governor Bickett confided to me the other day that as , a matter of fact, the state had enough mon­ ey in sight non;,'owing to the nat­ ural increase of; wealth, to take care of everything without tinker­ ing with the revaluation scheme,’! Mr. Stone said., . “The farmer’s objection. to the scheme is that ifcis unjust to: him: Whentheman ia the city—I in- clude ifimy classification all ex­ cept the. small home owner .in the city—finds.that/he is - being taxed he does the most natural thing in -;the world and/one that any of us would do in Displace-—just runs up the price of Iais goods or his servi­ ces and lets .the ultimate consumer pay the cost It, doesn't make a great deal of difference to biin If the ,cost .'of livingiis high, he has the means of meeting it by follow­ ing the ascending cost of things and getting his shape Of the money that is afloat., .

Discussing the discrimination of a good many country newspapers because war time prices and scar­ city of help forced them out of ex­ istence, the Ohio Farmer says it is a serious loss and makes this argu­ ment for these newspapers: “During the war and afterward the prices of -white paper, of. labor and all kinds of materials that go to make a publication have increas­ ed so rapidly that they have kept about two jumps ahead of the pub; lisher’s income. Many publications of localcirculation have been forced to discontinue,rat least temporarily. “This is unfortunate for the pub­ lishers, but it is more unfortunate for the community. Without a good local paper, what channel- is there for the news of the town and the surrounding country? What greater asset can a town have than a good, wideawake, -progressive, honest and fearless' newspaper to keep its peop’e informed as to the local goings on and to -help mold local public opinion?” Look at Yonr Tax Receipt The Piedmont Herald, Troy, -N. C. ,-reports several instances in that county where the poll tax was left off from tax receipts. They were Republicans,-of course. We hear of one in this county; It may have been errors,, we all make them, or it may not have been. If the poll tax is not filled out on you^tax re­ ceipt and'you are under 50 years of age, ypu will not be able to vote in the November election. So it will be Well for every Republican in this and every other county to see that his poll tax is marked up when he pays his tax. Our Demo­ cratic friends bave many ways that are curious when it comes to vot­ ing and this may. be one of their methods. In the last election many soldier boys lost their votes by fraud and deception and there has not been an indictment of a single one of; those who ’ virtually stole the votes of boys who left home and went across the sea to make the world safe for democracy, but not the Democracy of those who stole their Votes.—Union Repub­ lican. the Quinine That' Does.

SalisburyPost.; ■- Mr. J. M. Bruner, of Elmwood, was.showing us some old copies of the Carolina Watchman today, one dated December 16, 1853, and the other date, of; February 27, 1865. The first carried price lists on pre, war basis - and the latter of the closing days of the war, and there was quite a difference to be sure. The prices , in the issue of 1853 were quoted from the Salisbury market, also the markets of Char­ lotte, Cheraw and Fayetteville. These prices were about what they were some ten or twelve years ago, and the prices in the issue of later date, 1865 were high, sky high, som.e of which-would make present h. c. I. prices ashamed of them­ selves. Of course these latter pri­ ces were'Confederate money. The paper of the first date car­ ried the speech, the message which PresidentPiercesent to Congress, and this lengthy paper was given in full. It might be interesting to see some of the prices in this war time papejS5- For instance: An axe and a handle cost$i 2.50, bacon was $3 a pound, army shoes cost Ji5; quinine was selling at J65 a pound, brown sugar brought $3 a pound,: molasses #1.0 a gallon. Pre-war prices On whiskey was set down at 50 cents a gallon and the latter date was jio a gallon, either price not being in the same class of whiskey of today. The paper of the first date was printed on a nice white news, good and .clear type and. represented a lot of mechanical work. The issue of the last, date was confined to a very small piece of paper, which proved the scarcity of newsprint in the South at that time. Get to Work.

Itrcould not possibly have been a more unfortunate time for the ill­ ness of our President than just now when so many questions of momen­ tous importance are coming before our Government. -For a number of months now we have had to get along without the President on ac­ count of his being incapicated, and in today’s paper Isee that his phys­ icians advise that he be taken to a warm climate for recuperation, and California is suggested. Is there not-something in our Constitution to meet a crisis such as this? There should be a head to our Govern­ ment, and with the prospects of the President not being able to again fill the position, during the remain­ der of the time he has to serve, if he is unwilling to step down and have Congress appoint a successor, he should be asked to do so. We need a head to our Government very badly now, and; will need such a head for many months to come, and it seems tragic that we are to get along with a chief executive who has not the power to act.— Wm.

A new high school building seems to be his hobby. W e think it is a fine subject, so it is th at we; decided to present to our readers the ideas as expressed by the various editors and ask you to give each of them special thought. It is quite evident that we need a new high school building when we have to use the auditorium for a classroom and are disturbed by the children passing in and out of the building, we have 110 place tff put our library, for w hich m oney has been raised; we have no place suit­ able to give plays, as the, present stage and auditorium are entirely too small; then we have no place for our domestic scence room, which we will need as soon as the high school is placed on the accred­ ited high school list. A new high school building is a necessity. W e a re s u re th a t if all our readers will take a little time to consider the m atter, they will real­ ize and see the necessity also.

Yadkinville, Feb. 14.— Sheriff J. E . Zachery of Yadkin county, was shot through the heart and killed about Ir o’clock last night at a blockade distillery, eight miles from Y adkinville, the county seat. T hree men were at the plant and all of them were arrested early this m orning and brought to the For­ syth jail this afternoon for safe keeping, the Yadkin jail not being considered sufficiently secure. Rev. A. A . Caudle, a Baptist M inister of Yadkin county, accom­ panied the Sheriff to the moonshine plant and declares th at Robah Baity aged 23, is the party who did the shooting. T he other two men at the plant were'Spencer McNeill and Jam es Brown. According to the statem ent made to the coroner by the Baptist divine, Baity was stand­ ing close to Sheriff Zachery when the form er fired the fatal shot, the powder burn igniting the officer’s overcoat arid the blaze, was extin­ guished by Rev. M r. Caudle, who says th at he was standing only a few feet aw ay when the sheriff walked up to Baity and McNeill, notifying them to. consider them ­ selves under arrest. Baity imme­ diately drew his pistol and fired, the sheriff falling in his. tracks. T here was talk of mob violence in Yadkin this m orning and this is one reason th at induced the officers to-transfer the prisoners to Forsyth, T he dead sheriff, was 5 5; years old and is suruived by his wife and One son, John, a .student in , Bingham school, Asheville, T he deceased was serving the second term and was popular with the law abiding people of- his coun­ ty.

Mempbis Man Says Troubles Left Him' on Tajdng Tanlac— NowFeekYearsTonnger. “Tanlac soon got me over my troubles and I am actually feeling years younger than I am,” said C. M. Black, a prominent Livestock dealer living at 562. Cox street, Memphis, Tenn. - “AU my life; I had. been a stOut, healthy man,” he continued, “and never had any serious trouble till about two years "ago, r when my stomach went back on me. Buy­ ing and selling stock kept me out of doors much of the time, and ex­ posure to all kinds of weather be -gan to tell on me. I .began tp suf­ fer from spells of indigestion and my stomach would swell up and bloat with sour:gas. My trouble grew worse and I suffered iso ter­ ribly that I thought . I had gall stones and was told an operation was necessary. I felt.like /there was a knot in my stomach and the pain made me miserable and some* times I would be knocked out for two or three days at a time. “A few'bottles of Tanlac entire­ ly relieved my trouble and I didn’t have a pain left. I can eat any­ thing now I want without suffer­ ing afterwards and I am so much pleased with the results that I have recommended Tanlac^) many.peo­ ple I know during my trips in ‘ the country, fer I feel that it is a med­ icine to be relied oii.” " ■ Tanlac is sold by leading drug­ gists everywhere.

There is a man whom you and I- know and whom we both dislike very much. Wehavea burning inclina tion to say naughty things to him He is the man who stands in front of 0ar postoffiee box, leisurely, sortmjr his mail and reading a letter or two while we- stand" behind impatiently waiting to get to our box. You dash into the ppfltoffice lobby in a desperate harry. You have a pleasant feeling that there are one or maybe two interesting letters waiting for you, surely one that you have been waiting to get. Besides you are in a hurry to get to work. Then you stop abruptly and glare at the broad back of the slow gent who has a box next to yours and who is taking a deliberate inventory of his mornings mail. H etakesa letter from the box, examines both sides, remarks audibly-that he wonders who in time is writing him from Detroit, Michigan. Thenhe carefully tears open the letter and reads it, digest­ ing each sentence. You try to peek under his arm at ybur box, and you catch a tantalizing glimpse of a -fat letter for you. Bu t the man is plac­ idly taking two more letters from his box. Youthankfullyobservethat one is merely a circular. But the other seems long and interesting. The man reads this one ejaculating nowand then, smiling over some message. You watch his counten­ ance, half-fascinated. He. laughs aloud and slaps himself in glee. This letter is chock full of something funny, something delightful, some­ thing that ought to be shared with other folks. The man looksabout for somebody to share with him the amusing epistle. His eye lights on you and he is opening his mouth, “This fellow says that down—.” For some reason he stops. Maybe it is the intense expression on your face that stops him. At any rate he stops a moment and then he manners apo­ logetically, "Were you waiting to get to your box”? . ' And you say, “Oh, iio: but since there’s a letter in it I'll'just take it.” But the sarcasm is lost on. .him. - He has moved away a few feet and is once more chuckling over his letter. The Poor Old National Guard. There were, we believe, .about 30 divisions of the United States army actually on the firing line, in contact with the enemy during the war. To these divisions were granted 78 dis­ tinguished service medals, the high­ est honor that canibe given an Ame­ rican soldier, and one that can be won only in battle against an armed enemy. That is an average of. less than three medals to division. But the 30 th division, inclnding the national guard of North Carolina, comes back with no less than 12 of the 78 medals/ regardless of the fact that it did not get: into action until late in the !summer of 1918, when the War was ^ drawing to a close. - This, friends and fellow-citizens, is the much-ridiculed, mn'ck-d^spised national guard—Blovenly in appear-, a^ce1 lax in discipline, hopelessly ih- efficient in training, salwe were often and positively informfedf' Poor old Kuard!

What a royal plant -it is. The world waits attendance^ on its growth. The shower that falls whispering on its leaves is heard around the*earth. The sun that shines upon it is tempered by the prayers of all3 people. The frost that drifts it, and the dew that de­ scends from the stars are noted, and the trespass of a little worm on its gr;en.leaf is more to England than the advance of the Russian cohorts or her Asiatic outposts. It is gold from the instant it puts forth its tiny shoot. Its fiber is current in every bank; and when, loosing its fleeces to the sun, it floats a sunny banner that glorifies the fields of the humble farmer, that man is marshalled under a flag that will compel the allegiance of the world and wring a subsidy from every nation of the earth. It is the heri­ tage that God gave to this people forever as their own when He arched our skies, established our moun­ tains, girt us about with the ocean, loosed the breezes, tempered the sunshine and measured the rain, ours and our children’s forever—as princely a talent as ever came from His hand to mortal stewardship.— Henry W. Grady. ABRAHAM LINCOLN. “Forgive them, for they know not ■> what they do.” He said, an so went shriven to his fate,— Unknowing went, that generous heart and true.

Who shall be our next President? This is a question that has been in in the niind of nearly every voter and has been asked time and again. The ofiSce of the President is a serious one, and he is invested witli much power. Therefore great , care should be taken in' selecting a man of the right character. In fact, I believe that all our offiicials should be good .Qhristian men. Whenthe wicked rule the people mourn. It has been stated that one of our present congressmen confessed that he was 65 years old and had never prayed in his life. He may be a good politician, understand the law etc., but he sure lacks one of the vital qualifications much*needed for the office lie is holding. In this Christian country of ours we need good Christian men from the Presi dent down, to make laws for a Christian people. In the next place our President should be a rigid Protestant, one that is strongly in favor of keeping the church and state separate; and to oppose everything that has a ten­ dency to combine the two. To do this we must have a man full of the Protestant religion. In the third place, we should have a President that is strongly in favor of keeping the United States free from European ,entanglement. We have succeeded nicely, as we are,,for nearly 150 years by hold­ ing our full independence, and we can do so yet. The moment we tie ourselves to.other nationsby a lea­ gue or otherwise, we step down and out o.f our independence and become slaves of other powers. We always have been charitable, and can be so yet without binding ourselves to do so. The very, fact that some want us to bind ourselves to a league is evidence that they have lost con­ fidence in our integrity and Chris' tianity. It sure is a sad reflection on us. Somebody seems to want to make us do more than we want to <!b by our free will or Christianity. Djes it not say; they think we are losing our religion? Everybody knows ,the great trouble we are in just nq>w because our President wants us to tie ourselves to the lea­ gue. Have we degraded or lost our honesty since he has been President? -Iftlus league-is adopted the Ixouble will 'begin ihstead of being at an eSnd.ii'f’eople are willing to be led, but riot driven. . . -} '• . . ^Therefore ,the writer would insist that when a mlu for i President be selected that he isa Christian man, a strong Protestant, arid aman that will stand firmly against European entanglement. Ibelievethatwhen this nature of .the league is explain­ ed to this pfeppie ani the happiness of us .as an independant nation such a'.man could be" elected . by a large inajority. In short, we want a gen- iiineiprptesiant Christian ,man—a man that is a full blooded American jr^a pnan!who ; Jwants America for America' without our hands tied.— REV. R. ii.

The Enquirer man, since he had “them flus” a year ago, has been bringing himself back into physical being by taking exercise, not with dumb bells, Indian clubs, and sucli like,;but with an axe,.garden tools, pruning shears, , lawn mower and the like. At least lie thought he was getting himself physically fit that: way but before him as be writes is an article on physical ctll- ture'by a wise guy who says that exercise does one absolutely no good at-all unless one truly enjoys it. There now, there goes all that exer­ cise for naught, if that is so, but “how come the hardening of the inUscles, the gain in good solid Weight, the toughening of the hands the man-siz&l appetite on the part of the one who has been taking the aforementioned ‘ exercise, that’s what the enquirer man wants to know. That wise guy is a liar when he says one has to enjoy the exer­ cise for it to do him good. Go thou, swivel chair occupant, take thee an axe and use it and thou shalt prove that since the days of Annanias there has not been a greater liar than is the lazy wise guy who says that you have to enjoy hard work for it to do you good.—Monroe En­ quirer.

Isn’t it worth while, instead, to take every precaution now, against get­ ting it? Probably the best and first thing to do is to make sure you are ,in good physical condition. During an epidemic, almost wherever you go you are exposed to influenza. As long, as you are really well, the-red corpulses of your bloc® fight off and defeatdisease germs. But when you are tired and run down, when you feel all right except that you haven’t much energy or enthusiasm your blood is tired out too and you are an easy victim. Pepto-Mangan has become fam­ ous as a builder of rich, vigorous blood. It helps yoti up when you are run down. Ithelpsyou avoid illness. Or, it helps you recover, if you realized your poor physical condition too late. Physicians have been recommend ing Pepto-Mangan for years, in cases of anemia (bloodlessness).' It is reliable, effective,, and has a record of over twenty-five years success. Take no chances with a run down condition. Get Pepto* Mangan today. ■ It is good health insurance.

A convention of the Republicans of this Senatorial District, compris­ ing the counties'of Wilkes, Yadkin' aud Davie is hereby called to meet in the court house at Yadkinville, on Saturday, March 6th, 1920, at I o’clock p. m„ for the purpose of nominating a Senator Jor this dis­ trict and to t r a n s a c t such other bus­ iness as may come before the. con­ vention.

FRANK STROUD, Sec. “When is the concrete street from the court house to the depot going to be built?” That is a question that is put uptous frequantly. Not being a member of the town board neither a.prophet or the son of a prophet, we are not able to say . Bnt here’s hoping that it will be built be£o:'e the roses bloem and lose their fragrance. ‘‘Throw away your hammer and buy a horn,” is the advice given us by a “friend.” ff every citizen of this town will boost.it half as much as The Record does, and if: every tight-wad in the town will turn loose half the money every year in - the channels of trade that' The Re­ cord does, we would have a bigger and better town. v ■ A gentleman living in Nebraska sent us a check last week for. $1.50 fora year’s subscription’to The Recordaiid wrote us that ; if this amount was not sufficient for us to notify him and balance would be .sent. That man realizes that things have gone'up, and that a paper is worth more today thau it was when eggs were ten cents per dozen and wheat one dollar per bushel. Some of. our citizens can’t realize this fact. The price ;of paper, ink and ev erytliing that goes into the making of a newspaper keeps, .soaring, sky­ ward. The Record is still one dollar per year, the only eight page paper in this section at the price. All persons who want to receive The Record must ^)ay their subscription in advance, 'as we cannot afford to send it on time at the low'prte-w are now charging. If your sub­ scription-is not paid in advance, send or bring us your renewal at once so that you will not ..miss an issue. The February term of Davie Su perior Court which was to have commenced here Monday was in- definitely postponed, as we -under­ stand it on a recommendation frotn the^fnnty physician'thatthe influ­ enza/epidemic w«is; too' bad, .and that it-would be unwise to hold tjje -court".- ^So far as we can leant net 'a.case.-of influenza has feagn report- - eji by our county, physfcian to the State Board of Health at Raleigh. ' The schools and churches have been allowed to run wide open. Strange; If Paid, is it MARKED PAID? EditorRecord: ^ My duty as .an attorney often re^ quires me to examine the-records of mortages both real estate and chattel mortgages: and I have found that there are numbers of recorded mort gages now standfng on the books not marked paid, many of which have long ago been paid, yet no entry on the record has been made showing that these mortgages are no longer m force. This is a very great in­ justice and wrong to the parties who have paid their mortgage debts, to have the-records still standing against them. Many do. not realize the in­ jury to their credit and-financial standing these old paid but unmarked mortgages ^re doing. Enquiries are often made to ascertain ones finan­ cial standing, and when an attorney finds mortgages on the books which hswe been paid but not so marked, he has no right to assume that they are paid, and consequently he has to make a report which may hurt- an innocent man’s credit, for how can he know that the debt has been paid when the record stands against the debtor? If every one holding a mortgage would mark it paid as soon as it is paid, a correct report could be made so far as the' records are concerned, and no harm =would be done a man’s credit as to mortgage debts. So when you pay off a mort­ gage debt, do one of two things, have the mortagee either mark the rec- 1 ords paid, or require him to cancel : the note and mortgage by marking 1 thertLpaid, and the -first time, you ,come to Mocksville put the paid' : note and mortgage in your pocket I and go into the Register, of' Deeds !office and ask him to mark it paid on the record.

A little care in the transaction of your every day business' may save you and others much worry and expense, and it does not require much time to do things correctly instead of the slip shod way many attend to their busi­ ness. There is nothing truer than I the old saying “a stitch in time, saves nine” and sometimes a law suit to ■boot. Once and awhile when I think of something that I am of the opin­ ion will be of service to others and will not require too much of the space for more important things I will jot them down and hand them over to the editor hoping that I may do a little good in my spare time, and save some poor fellow a lot of worry and unnecessary expense and trouble—in other words do some good while I can. We should realize that we do not live for self alone, that life is too short to overlook the other fellow who is straggling up the same hill, with possibly a heavier ioad than we are carrying, and to give him a push at the opportune time' may mean more than' we realize to- the burden bearer. If we have not yet realized that there is nothing in the world bigger than a dollar, and nothing more sacred than the accu­ mulation of wealth, then life is not worth living, and we have. missed the best and only things worth living and striving for. To have an ideal and strive to make the world bette- for having lived in it. is no mean ac­ complishment to the humbliest in the land. ‘ E H . MORRIS. Mocksville, N. C., Feb. 17. 1920.

A MEMORIAL TO THE PDOPLf Procedure of the Proposed Arbitration ■ Boards Would Destroy Discipline and Lead to Chaos, W ashington. — Organized railroad w orkers and union labor In general, holding the redrafted railroad reorgan­ ization bill to be destructive of the employes’ constitutional privileges and liberties, called on Congress to defeat the m easure in Its entirety. Tsie memorial, addressed to the peo­ ple of the United States, as well as the two houses of Congress, declares that the bill in enunciating a principle for basing the -financial return of in­ vestors subverts the principles of American government. This provision, the memorial holds, would constitute "an abandonment of government for the common good, the establishment of government for private interest, special privilege and class benefits.” Provisions of the measure for arbi­ tration of disputes are attacked be­ cause of the m anner In which the spe­ cial arbitration boards would be con*. stituted and because of the way in which they would operate. The arbitration boards, including the perm anent federal board of nine members, m ight be so composed, the memorial declares, as to- eliminate labor from representation. Procedure of these boards as set.forth in the bill, the memorial states, wbuld “de­ stroy all discipline and lead to chaos."

AGAINST THE UIBUTiG PICT jEntire Responsibility for Present Situation Rests Upon the British, French andTtalian Premiers. W ashington.—President Wilson In his "memorandum” to the allies con­ cerning their proposed Adriatic set­ tlem ent informed them that the United States might have to consider withdrawing tbg treaty of Versailles from the. senate If the allies went ahead with their plans without the consent of the United States. This settlem ent was made officially here with the further statem ent that the American position was outlined not in the nature of a threat, but as a statem ent of a situation created "not by an act of the American govern­ ment, but by an act of the British, French and Italian premiere,” which would place the United States in the position, if it were a party to the treaty of Versailles, of subscribing through the pact to rights of sov­ ereignty and other agreem ents to Which it was opposed. The treaty of Versailles and the An- glo-French-American pact are consid­ ered inseparable as far as this ques­ tion is concerned and if President Wilson should determine to withdraw the treaty of Versailles, it would mean that the American-French pact would be withdrawn at the sam e-tim e, it was explained.

Y'-vi The Hague.—The latest allied note to Holland with regard to extradition of the former German emperor re­ verses -the original demand for his sur­ render and only asks his internment, with the suggestion that the'former monarch be sent, perhaps, to one of the Dutch islands in the East Indies, it became known. It is learned on excellent authority that the Dutch government has al­ ready determined to reply with an of­ fer actually to intern Wilhelm at Doom. Holland would accept the full responsibility of preventing him from endangering the peace of the world, establishing a guard over him and a strict censorship. Holland, it is pointed out in diplo­ matic circles, is anxious to meet any request of the allies which is compat­ ible with her own dignity and does not conflict with the nation’s laws and traditions of long standing. More than anything else, as far as can be learned, she desires to bring to a close the issues over the presence of the former emperor, which has been a thorn in her side since the Hohem- zollerns sought refuge here in 1918. . That the ex-ruler is undoubtedly willing to spend the rest of his life in Doom Is the belief in official circles, where it is also believed that the al- j lies will accept the proposal to Placei upon Holland’s shoulders the respon-! Si1Mlity for keeping him there. They point to Doom as being a particularly advantageous place to intern him. as the village is not near any large city and the house which the ex-emperor has bought is so placed as to be easily guarded. „ a ilgat, Ssre I Chest Wkh M G iser’s Jcy SaIva VPbea a cold gets doro Iztz ti* XbsoaX and chtSt, etusins ssreass boasse&ess* o r croapy sysiptcss, L bt& M totaJeequicksteps toprsTe* pnwitnoafa, o r other seiazs resets.

Eggs Should Be Gathered Carefully. smaller proportion of eggs than ever before are broken In tran sit This re­ sult was brought about by the co-opera­ tive efforts of the United States de­ partm ent of agriculture and the United States railroad administration. Em­ ployees of the railroad administration were detailed to the burean of chem­ istry, where they received instruction In proper methods of loading and stewing eggs in freight cars. W her­ ever cars were received a t terminals in a badly damaged condition, these employees of the railroad administra­ tion paid personal visits to the ship­ pers for the purpose of instructing them how properly to load cars to avoid damage In future shipments. The result, according to the report of the chief of the bureau of chemistry. Is a m aterial diminution in the break­ age of eggs during transportation. GOOD QUALITIES O F GUINEAS Have Large, Plump Breasts and Gamy- Flavor That Is Enjoyed by Many j Epicureans; Guineas have large, plump breasts and a gamy flavor that is much en­ joyed by some farm ers. They are good foragers and easy to raise, and their clacking will frighten hawks or sound an alarm if other intruders come to the poultry range. Their dis­ advantages are not serious, but they will fly into the garden and sometimes do a little damage and the old birds are often quarrelsome with the young poultry. They can be allowed to roost in the house w ith the old birds and they will lay their eggs in the same nests. Don’t figure why a black hen lays a white egg, but get the egg.• • • Root crops make excellent succulent food for hens where plenty of green ’grass or rye can not be had.* * * The Emden is probably the most beautiful of all domestic w ater fowl, It being a pure white, and, like the Toulouse, very large.* * • Keep the drinking vessels clean. Put a little lime into the bottom of them twice a week. Don’t forget to give the fowls a little salt, In scene form, every day.• • • .

Killed by Automobiles. „ Raleigh News and Observer. One hundred and /sixty people were killed in automobile accidents in North Carolina last year. More than two people died every week in the State as a result of accidents that might have been prevented.. In 1908 there were 105 deaths as IPre- sult of automobile accidents. • Forsyth county led the State in the number killed, with a total of twelve. Mecklenburgcounty takes second place with a count of ten, and Wake third, with seven deaths from automobile accidents. Bun­ combe county had . six deaths and G uilford five. The figures are taken from the records of the State de­ partment tic health. “Great opportunities come to those who make use of small ones.” “I’ve gained fourteen’pounds^ in six weeks taking Tanlqic and' now I’m a well man,” ,said Henry S. IIowaisS, a well-known farmer and stock raiser of King Hill, Idaho. ■ ‘ 'I had suffered from rheumatism and indigestion twelve years,” he continued, “and-could liardlj’ eat a thing because, everything went against me and I had no appetite: livery joint -in me was swollen with rheumatism and hurt so I could Hardly bear to be touched. I was in such a bad fix I couldn’t work and had to use a walkihg stick to get along. Tlie first bottle of Tan- Iac made a great change in my feel­ ings, my rheumatism soon left me and I threw my stick aside, for now I can walk as well -as anybody. “And eat!—why, I just can’t eat enough and feel like I could do as much work as I ever could. Tau- Iac is worth its weight in gold, and it has convinced me that there’s at least one medicine that will do what they say it will-and I want to do my part in letting everybody know' about it.” Tanlac is sold by leading drug­ gists everywhere.
