M second «Uh matter. iS^sr^ra^i^^ss:' President Wilson is now in the Middle West talking "preparedness" with the people—telling the people abont their government and country and some things he wants to have done. The people are hearing him and are not turning a deaf ear to his proposals, lie is not talkiog for war—he is for pease, but urging preparation for any eventuality. In Milwaukee Monday he spoke to 9,000 people and pledged them he would keep this country out of war if possible. Ho said: "We should see that our house is set in order. When all the world is on fire the sparks fly everywhere." Here is what the New York Bun, as deeply dyed Republican paper as the most blatant partisan could de sire, says: "Beside the great issue Mr. Wilson has raised and for which he is courageously battling now, his fortunes and the fortunee of his party are of but microscopic dimensions. Mr. Wilson typifies the vast cizenship before which he Isys the esse of this county. He is an advocate of honorable peace; he is not one of those who 'see red when all the world seems to run with blood,' and therefore his words will have a greater weight with reasonable men. And who, be lieving that Americans ore worthy of thsir heritage, can believe that his solemn and. sober warning and plea will fall on deaf ears ?" These are patriotic sentiments. The work tbst Mr. Wilson is doing is patriotic. As indicating how strictly neu tral Mr. Wilson has been through it all, The New York Tribune is found complaining that the Qerman Am bassador administers the State De partment, and on the other hand The Fatherland, another New York paper of strong Qerman flavor, Avows that the same State Depart ment is administered by the British Ambassador.* These things being true, there is no reason why any patriotic Ameri can ahould not stand by Mr. Wil son. That was a tragic close of the life of Capt. *T. P. Sale, State • Prison Warden,-at Raleigh last Friday. He had applied the electric current that ended the - life of two men sentenced to die. Twenty minutes later he himself was dead. It is believed the r shook waa too much „ for his nervous system whioh lately had ahown signs of weakening. Senator Tillman Defends Secretary Daniels. Secretary Daniels was praised as "one of the greatest secretaries (he nary has ever had," and form er Secretary Meyer waa assailed by Chairman Tillman, of the Senate naval oommlttee, in a speech on "the truth about the navy." Senator Tillman took Mr. Meyer to taak for his recent decla ration before the National Se curity League that the funda mental defect of the navy depart ment is that it has no brain and bo oompetent military organisa tion." r "Mr. Meyer forgets," said Sena tor Tillman, "if be ever knew that when be left the navy it was near ly 6,000 men short, that 46 per cent, of the men discharged In good standing were leaving the navy, while 85 per cent, are now k* re-enlisting; and that during his inonmbency there were 10,860 de sertions. Vet he has thqjDheek to hold hia successor responsible for conditions which are due wholly to his own shortcomings. As against 10,360 desertions while Mr. Meyer was secretary, so far— about two and a half years—there - have been only 4,375 since his sucoessor entered office. "The head of the navy himself L ia not a pampered and petted * darling'of inherited wealth, but a r red-blooded, upstanding, forward | looking American, who is a grad uate in the hard school of experi |- ence and. a practical man with wholesome ideas." Senator Tillman praised other offleers of the navy who he said 5 were "not known at all in the drawing rooms in Washington or ' 8.0.

The farmers of North Carolina on January 1, 1016, were nearly nine million dollar* richer in horses, mules, milk cows and twine than in 1910 when the cen sus was taken. They had 16,000 more horses, 25,000 more mules, 11,000 more Milk oows, and 374,- 000 more swine. Our rates of increase duririg this Ave year period were 9.6 per cent In horses or nearly two and a half times the rate of the country at large; moles 14 per cent or nearly 3 times the general rate; aud swine a 30 per cent increase against a 3.6 per cent increase in the United States. Our increase in milk cows is not up to the mark; 8.6 per cent against 5.6 in the country at large. Also we had 4,000 fewer cattle of other sorts, and 45,000 fewer sheep. But all told, here Is a most won derful increase in livestock in five years I It keeps pace with our in crease in crop production as noted in the University News Letter, January 12th. •, Barring only sheep, milk oows, and other cattle the increases show well against the Increases during the census period. We are improving the breed of our dairy and beef animals, but the Fed eral Livestock Report of January 18 indicates that we are falling to gain in numbers as fast as we ought to do. New York Calls Him New York World. Dr. Charles Lee Ha per, head of the department of economics in the University of North Carolina, and rural investigator tor the United Slates Department TT Agri oulture, has accepted an Invita tion to confer in framing a new taxation system for New York. Dr. Kapdfr Is ranked as one of the taxation experts of ihe coun try. He is author of a book on taxation and a book .on railway transportation, lje has stifled the system of taxation abroad and extensively In the United States. Mr. W. W. Watt of Charlotte, mentioned aaa probable candidate for corporation eomniiasiouer, has let it be known that he will not be a candidate. The person who discovered that! truth is ■tranger than fiction -lived before the day of the modern Human Efficiency to Reduce Death Rate That we must look to improv log personal hygiene, that is, out every-day habits of living, as i means of further reducing thi death rate is now the opinion o! many forward locking health ex perts. Especially is this consider ed necessary in targe cities and towns where pore water, clean food and sanitary conditions ol streets, alleys And lots are nr longer such pertinent public health factors to be warred aKainst Where these are yielding or hav« already yielded their returns in lower death rates and better liv ing conditions, the individual ii regarded as the next source to b« looked to for better health and a lower mortality. Dr. W. A. Evans, of Chicago, believes that the next forward step in publid health work that will count most in reducing the death rate will be to increase hu man efficiency. He believes that strong bodies and strong minde brought about by improving per sonal habits and customs through better knowledge of health and hygiene and throngh an increased appreciation of good health and long life, must from now be the aim of city sanitarians and public health workers in general. He advocates to this end the use of daily and weekly newspapers and the public schools as means of educating all the people in mat ters of personal hygiene and those measures making for increased efficiency both in mind and body. In other words, he believes that the greatest work and task of public health workers today is to teach people how to live healthful and efficient lives. Southern Railway Will Build Steel Car Repair Shop* at Knoxville. So rapid bas been the increase in the use of steel cars on the lines of the Southern Railway that it his been found necessary to pro vide a special shop for repairs to equipment of this class to be lo cated at the Coster shops near Knoxville. The new facility will conftist of an all steel main shed 73 ft. by 480 ft. with three tracks extend ing through same, and a work shop 81 ft. by 100 ft., both equip ped with overhead. power cranes and full complement of machinery and tools for repairing steel cars. During the past ten years the Southern Railway has purchased 23,000 all steel and steel under frame cars and the new shop will provide better facilities for keep ing them in repair than could be had in the old shops which were originally built for nandling only wooden cars. The contract for the construc tion of the steel frame for the main shed has been let to the Virginia Bridge and Iron Co., and the material,will be fabricated at the Memphis plant. Construction will begin before April Ist and will be completed within six weeks from that date. Otfier additions to be made to the facilities at Coster shop will include a scrap dock with reclaim ing shop for handling and re claiming future accumulations ot scrap resulting from repairs to cars and an additional wash and locter room for of em ployees. Tho erection of these buildings will necessitate a Revis ion of the track layout at the north end of the yard. With the exception of the steel frame for the steel car repair shed all construction will be done by Company forces. Haa IJm4 Chamberlain', Cough Heme*) lor SO Years.

In the United States the invest ment capital for the public schools for 1912-'l3 amounted to over 12,- 000,000,000. Of this total $293,- 093,879, was found in permanent school funds; the Vftliie of unsold school lands was estimated at $206,132,679; public property used for school purposes was valued at •1,347,066,909. Read these figures aloud and note the sound of tbe amounts. Sorely public sohool work is a big business. Details. There is a wide variation in the amount of this investment capital in the various States. Minnesota leads them all with over $240,- 000,000 credited to this item. Five States, Minnesota, New York, Illi nois, Pennsylvania, Washington report over 1100,000,000 for this item. A little State like Rhode Island reports over $9,000,000 and even Arizona with the smallest amount reports over $2,500,000 worth of investment capital in her school business. North Caro lina ranks 39th in this respect with a reported $9,099,823 as her share of the $2,000,000,000 na tional investment capital in putt he schools. Cossparisoas. Only two of the eight States with a per capita- country wealth of $2,000 or ovefr report a total investment capital of $60,000,000 or more—lllinois and California While the per capita country j wealth in New Jersey is only $531, ] she nevertheless has an invest- i ment capital in tbe school busi neaa of nearly $60,000,000.

Republican Leader Defends President Against Democratic Criticism. Republican Leader Mann came to the defense of President Wilson in the House of Congress Friday when • Representative Dies of Texas, lead er of the anti-preparedness Demo crats attacked the President's New York speech on National Prepfu-ed- ■ ness. Mr. Mann rebuked Mr. Dies for making any remarks about the Pre*-, ident's views before the latter had* completed his speaking tour and declared that his only defense for changing his position, on prepared ness was that he believed he was right. "With the possibility of danger which prevails," Mr. Mann declared "we will meet the situation, we will rise to our responsibilities and put this nation in a position where it can protect itself against any for eign foe." Tempestuous applaus broke from all sides of the chamber. "Great nations are arrayed against one another in Europe today ana there are no prospects of peace, continued the Republican leader. "When this war N broke out I took occasion to say that it was odr du ty to remember that we wre stand ing for the American people and under all circumstances to remain strictly neutral. * "I do not k:»,Wi whether I have ' changed my mind since a year ago, but I would not be ashamed to. But I do know that the situa tion has been changed. Events have so modified the facts that one may think as he did before but realize the truth. The trouble withmapy lingerers in the past has been that they do not realize an event until it has become ancient history." „"I do »ot believe in a great , great standing army nor the per manent necessity of a great navy, but I do believe that a great country like ours that refuses to consider a situation today be cause of its beliefs in the past, hasn't the real right to remain at . peace and will not be able to do so. "We have a great duty to per form. We must determine what we shall do, for we are in a position where a decision must be made. We must determine if we shall do nothing on the chance that Provi dence will protect us, or there is no danger, or that there is danger, and if ed we must prepare to pro tect ourselves. "The President ought to know more about this situation than any member of the House. And now, that he Is going about thfc country statehiscase.it would be) more be coming to members of his own par ty to awaife his statement, at least, before attacking him, - Glass Deceives Birds. It has been frequently noticed that no wild bird can understand that the properties of glass, and great numbers ranging in size from a pheasant to a tit-mouse, are killed by flying against the win dows of country houses. If a room possesses a large mir ror, reflecting the view seen thru an open Window: birds are particu larly liable to be deceived and es pecially if frightened into think ng that they can; fly thru it. Hawks will sometimes chase their intended victim* into strange places. Some years ago a member of this species pursued a small bird thru the open window of a railway carriage in motion. In its blind blind determination to secure the panting fugitive it entangled its claws in the meshes of the ha track, and was ignominiously) slain by an astonished passenger witlf an Ugfr brella. - ■ \ Co asti patios.

Brandies of Boston Was nominated by President Wilson Fri day for a place on the Supreme Court bench made vacant by the death of Associate Justice Lamar. The Senate received the nomina tion with, unconcealed surprise—in which all official .Washington Join ed, because Mr. Brandeis had not been mentioned among the long list of eligibles which President Wil son considered, or among an equal ly long list of aspirants who had presented endorsements. Mr. Brandeis is' 60 years old. He was born and educated in Louis ville, Ky., and later at Harvard University, an J in 1878 began prac ticing law in Boston. Following the Pinchot-Ballinger controversy he was counsel for the shippers who opposed the general increase in freight rates before, the Inter- State Commerce Commission, and during the sama period he was at the forefront of those who werq demanding an of the financial affairs of the "New Haven railroad. Among his participations in other public affairs were his appearance /s counsel for those who fought for-the validity of workingmen s hours of labor law in Oregon, Illi noise and Ohio. He was in 1910 chairman of the board of arbitra tion which settled the New York garment maker's strike. He has written largely and is regard ed as art authority on public fran chises, life insurance, wage-earners insurance, scientific management of labor problems and the trust ques tion. At the begihning of President Wilson's administration. Mr. Bran deis was expected to get a place on the cabinet. Many of the ad ministration leaders expected him ed him to be appointed Attorney General. SANITARY PREPAREDNESS. \ • Dr. Rupert Blue Advocates Healthy Citizenship. * • t>r. Rupert Blue, a former North Carolinian, now Surgeon General of the V. 8. Public Health Service, at Washington, D. C„ believes in- upre paredness', not exclusively in that preparedness that calls for larger armament and for a larger arma ment and for a larger body of trained fighting men both on iana and sea, but in a strong Jtealthy citizenship. He deems it of far greater importance to maintain a nation of strong physically fit citi izens to follow ihe pursuits of peace than a trained citizenship to ans wer th« call to arms. He says that an able-bodied vigorous society, clothed in tbe armor of hygienic knowledge and fortified by ade quate sanitary defenses, is equally able to withstand the shock of arms and the continued strains of tbe occupations of peace. Dr. Blue's program for .sanjtary preparedness calls first for the ne cessity of teaching the individual the value of a sound body. He must be made) to believe that the body of a, man is a personal and • national asset. Probably upon the plastic mind of the school child is the best mean* of impressing the simple truths of health and person-* al hygiene. Then sanitary living must be made' a habit among the people, and individual improvement must be constantly impressed upon the public mind. Last, Dr. Blue advises a faithful support on the part of all Individuals to theßtate and County Boards of Health and all features of public health work. She Will Recover So .her doctor said.
