N. o..as second eluss matter GRAHAM, N. C., April 20 1915 SCANT NOTICE. * . The greatest event in Alamance in a whole year waa the County Com mencement last Saturday. Every citizen who attended felt a pardon able pride in it and would have been glad to read an account of what he but partially saw. A competent cor respondent sent the morning papers in Charlotte, Greensboro and Raleigh the account. Sunday's Charlotte paper contained the greater part of the write-up, the Greensboro paper but two short paragraphs, and noth ing appeared in the Raleigh paper till Tuesday and then only a short paragraph. All these papers have lots of subscribers and friends in Alamance and they feel they were given little consideration; that an event along a line—education —more helpful to a newspaper than any other Bhould be prominently feat ured. VHLUE OF A. D. & 0. PRE FERRED. Five townships in Alamance coun ty arc being asked to vote ♦125,- 000 and four townilhips in (Trance and Durham counties $250,000 lr bonds for const.notion o! Ala mance, Durham mcl Orange Ha' - way and Electric Co. These bona* it is proposed to exchange lor Pre ferred Stock in the railway of Ike amount. A most natural question to be asked is "what will the preferred stock be .worth and will it yield any interest or revenue?" based ?upon the length of the road, cost of construction, equipment, up keep and operation, and the prob able earnings as shown by experi ence where similar environments obtain, the road will show net earn ings of $52,814 per annum. This after the fixed charges and cur rent expenses have been deducteu. These figures have been verifi ed by Mr. John H. Cravath, editor of the American Railway Journal, who is an authority on such. It will be seen that not only all charges are provided for, which in interest on the investment, but af ter taking care of these there is a net septus of $52,884, sufficient to take care of contingencies. These estimates being true, no commu nity will take any chance of being burdened with a debts without having something wherewith to meet and discharge it. Dr. Edward K.

People Came b> Hundreds I'runi livery Corner of the County, Many Flower lug Floats, Miles ol Children, An Inspiring Might. SIXTY-FIVE GRADUATES. f A Handsome Inhibition. t.lorlous Weather, liter; Feature a Huecess —A Great and fiood Day. The heavens .shone above with bright ski?s and the earth mad'-- a mild melody of music with an un folding of the Spring tide as the good people from all over the county gathered into Graham last Saturday for holding their 4th An nual' County Commencement. Plans had been made early In the school year for soecial lines of endeavor; some definite things Were to be donet and the people came togeth er to consummate a work in which all engaged with interest and pride. Early in the morning the people began to come. First to appear waa the automobile with its speed and load. Then the fleetest horses with buggies and carriages. Soon all kihds of conveyances were coming together and continued to come Till the town was filled with folks. . The -program was taken up and carried out almost exactly as sched uled. First on the program was the parade. It formed at -the. Graded School building and moved down Main street to and around the court house and back to the Baptist church. It was large and very beautiful. The Parade jvas headed by the Oneidn band In uniform, which was followed by Uncle Sam and Aunt Columbia on the towns splen did find Igally caparisoned white match horses. Then came a long line of elegantly planned and beautifully finished floats. Each one unique and pretty, carrying o'Jt some special design and color scheme A proccsnon of twenty ( r mcto ol these large floats, drawn by i ietty horses and filled •vi'h sweet ihiidren presented a scene of beauty as they lined up on the new asphalt streets that were viewed and admired by solid walls of people who stood on the side as the long procession moved by And then the scene did not cease. Hundreds and hun dreds of children followed the floats In the line of march. They wore their colors, carrlsd • their banners, and marched with the,dig nified bearing of th"? trained BOl dier. A beautiful sight, a most magnificent demonstration wns the parade. LITKRABY ADDRESS! The large grove at the Baptist church formed a shady retreat and an outdoor auditoiiim for the crowd while it listened to the lit erary address. Just before the ad dress all Joined In singing "All Hail the Power of Jesus Name," and Rev. Jaa. W. Rose of the Baptist church made the Invocation. The address was made by Prof E. C. Brooks of Trinity College. Prof. Brooks began by saying that he did not know that he was expect ed to speak to ill the people of Alamance county, that if he pitched his voice somewhat high he only expected tu be heard In Burlington and Mebane. In his dis course he dealt with binding the soul of man to God bv bringing the child in contact with those things that would cause the best Impulses to be developed in the child. He showed how that might be language or lettera, the manipu lation of metal or other materi tl, or mother nature herself. It waa a masterful addi ess, and worthy of deep consideration by all who are concerned In developing the beat manhood and womanhood. 85 GRADUATES.

There were display ed compositions, h.stories, drawings of all kinds, pic'ures, cooking, sew ing, baskets, picture irames, etc Each specimen of the work seemed to deserve special mention. But the list la too long for that. Several School Houses were well sketched, so much so that they could be easi ly recognized.

The choice of the French in the matter of explosives has baen the powerful compound melinite, and i experiments made with shells filled with this have shown that they can be fired through no less than 10 inches of armor plate Without ex ploding. That is an essentitl factor. The shell's leave the gun with an initial velocity of upwards of 2,000 feet per second. The first thing, to be considered is that the explosive shall be of such a nature that the shaell is not likely to burst before leaving the gun, and once that is overcome the next object is to pre vent the shell from exploding be vent the shell from exploding be fore' it reaches the object against which ft is directed. The British Government has been very favorably inclined towaifas cordite, and also lydite, which lat ter derives its name from the place of its manufacture, Lvdd, in Wales, and shells charged with this com position have been successfully fir- , ed through five inches of armor. The high explosive favored by the Austrians is called ecrasite. The secret of its composition is only known to two men, who are natives of that country. It 13 an explosive of particularly destruct ive power against forts and earth works. A guncotton composition is used by Germany and they also have other secret high explosives.

Greensboro News, April 25th. - The Southern Railway Company has now completed and put into service its double track system De itween ißeidsville and Danville. Work on this improvement begaa last fall and has beep going on steadily since then, despite the bus iness depression that nas existed. This is explained by the fact that the Southern negotiated and secur ed a loan for these improvements before the outbreak of the war, and since the money had to be used for this purpose, and as interest was being paid on it it was decided that there could be nothing gained by delaying the work. Aside from this consideration this work has given employment to a large num ber of men. Work is now being done on the additional track between Greens boro and Reidsville, contractors be ing at work on practically every 'foot of the line. If nothing hap pens, it is thought that this work will be complmed within the next 30 days,' and the double track sys tem will then be In effect for prac tically the en*ire distance between Washington and Charlotte. Other sections of the line will be given attention within the near future. In fact Work is being done along certain- other strtetches of single track now, and It is the hope that before very much longer, the sys tem of double track will be ready the entire distance between Wash- I ington and Charlotte. Another of the improvements in connection with this double track work is the new bridge at Danville. : It is built high above the level of ' the old bridge and the track is de toured for a distance ol eight miles in order to use It. It is a magnifi cent piece of engineering. HEALTH NOTES. N. C. State Board of Health. „ One dollar spent on the preven tion of disease will bring bigger d°i\idends to any town than ten dollars spent on relief cure. , o If a town would be attractive to visitors and a healthful place fqr home people, no food should be exposed to flies In its grocery Htores. food shops and market; its hotelq. cafes, and restaurants, should not be swarming with flies and its streets and vacant lots should neve rbe seen littered with trash and unsightly objects. —o—■ That Vve have had our annual clean-up week doas not. indicate that our town will remain clean for a year and that there's no more cleaning up to be done. Keeping clean cannot be accom plished through one event of a year or a season It becomes more than "fc weekly necessity. It demand snothing more than daily practice. Make it a habit ana keep clean for cleanliness is health. —o— We can have the Health Exhibit of the State Board of Health come to our town by simply 'paying the transportation charges. This is the same exhibit 'that recently created naltion-wide interest at the Health Conference at Florida, and will be a splendid means of teaching our people many a health lesson first hand. The main facts pertaining to health and disease disease prevention set forth in this exhibit admit of no argument. They are convincing and hard to forget when you have once seen them. o If we tolerate unclean stables o| en-back privies and garbage piles in our tgown this summer,, we may expect no other result than to lose a numbe rof our ba bies from diarrhoea! diseases or summer complaint, and a number of our boys and girls, men and wo men as , well from typhoid-fever. The reasoning is this: Stables' and dump piles are the main breeding breeding places for flies; priviei are the main feeding places foi flies; privies are the main sources of typhoid and diarrhoeal diseases, and flies are the main carriers of these diseases to men. women and children. Calomel Dynamites A Sluggish Liver Crashes into sour bile, mak ing you sick and you lose a day's work. Calomel salivates! It's mercury Calomel acta like dvnamite on a sluggish liver. When calomel comes in contact with sour bile it crashes into it causing griping and . nausea. If you feel bilious, headachy, con stipated and all knocked out, Jus! go to your druggist and get a 64k bottle of Dod son's Liver Tone which la a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel Take a spoonful and if it doMBt , start your liver and straighten vot up better and quicker than naatj , calomel, and without making you sick, you Inst go and get youi money back. If you take calomel today youi . be sick and nauseated tomorrow besodes it may salivate yon, whili if you take Dodaon's Liver Tow you will wake up feeling great, ful of ambition and ready for work oi play.

Espe cially is thi* true aay* Mr. Bat man or the fool hill region, because wilil onions grow very abundantly there and it la practically impoaaible for the cowa not to eat them. The flavor from the oniona gradually diaappeara after the cowa have been taken from the pasture four or five hours. When the cows are fed about two pounds of molasses with the regular feed, the flavor U alao reduced but not entirely con trolled. With a view to eliminating the flavor entirely, Mr. Baton i* con ducting a aeries of experiments at the Pender County Teat Farm. These experimenta constats of va rious methods of handling the milk and feeding the cows. Anyone in terested in the result of these tests should write to the office of Dairy Experimentation for the results.
