another red hot fight and achieved
j, another glorious victory for Cou ity,
: State and Nation, we want Ala

Com. of Alamance County.
It has been a long time since, if
ever before, this country faced
such problem* of international im
port as those It facet today. What
will be the outcome of it is a prob
lem yet unsolved. But whatever
may happen, It behoove* the pop
ple of this country to stand to
gether and touch elbow* In sup
port of all reasonable things that ,
■the President and Congress may do ,
to maintain the honor and rights of
the United State* as a nation. The
people of this country do not want
o go war with any other nation,
and Uncle Sam is carrying no chip
SB his shoulder, but we have rights
that other countries must respect
•nd It is the business of the Presi
dent and Congress to msintaln
them. . 1

The lest white teachers' meet
ing for the scholastic year waa held
In Graham on laat Saturday. The
roada were bad but a large crowd
of teachers were present. In ad
dition to the regular program
many points of interest pertain
ing to-the County Commencement
were discussed. The regular ex
amination for the seventh grade
graduates will be March 30th and
and 31st. Exceptions for earlier
and later dates will be made where
they are absolutely necessary.
Every school wanting the teat
questions are asked to write for
them. Also those teachers want
ing the spelling tests for all grade*
looking lo the spelling prizes
should write for ihein. Make this
test not later than April 15th that
the records may be in hand for
the County Commencement.
Hon. T. M. Robertson of Wash
ington, D. C., an Alamance man,
and an uncle of Supt. Robertson,
will deliver the County Commence
-1 in en t address. Mr. Robertson was
formerly a teacher and he con
tinues to study educational ques
tions. Ilis theme for the com
| uiencemout will be, "The Mission

Through the generosity of Mr.
Robert L. llolt, some of the pa
trons and teachers, the Glenco
school has been extended a month.
Glenco is oue of our progressive

to a supplementary library given
to this school Thanksgiving by
Senator Dixon.
On Thursday evening of last
week the Domestic Science class
of the new Stony Creek school
entertained at dinner State Super
visor of Schools, Mr. L. C. Brog
den of Raleigh, Supt. of County
Schools, Mr. J. H. Robertson,
County Supervisor, Miss Cora
JefTcoat, the local school board
aud the faculty of the school.
This is one of the schools in which
Domestic Science has been intro
duced I his year, and are neces
sarily young in the work, never
theless the bounteous table which
was so attractively spread would
not give evidence of this, for a
three course meal scientifically
prepared was well served by the
inejnbera of the class. It is to be
remembered that two girls from
this school won first place in the
sewing demonstration given at the
Teachers' Assembly at. Raleigh,
Thanksgiving. After the sump
tuous dinner, Mr. Brogden ad
dressed the recently organized
Country Life Club on "What the
School can do for the Community
and What the Coniuiuuity can do
the School." Ill* address was full
of instrnctiou and inspiration.
The good people of Stony Creek
are very inueh interested and are
doing and planning many things
for the improvement of their
school and oommunity.
Notwithstanding the low bend
ing skies, the silent falling of the
downy snow, interspersed with
the rain drops, and the cold biting
winds of the north, the Domestic
Science class of Friendship served
their annual dinner to the county
educational officials, the State
Rural School Supervisor, Mr L.
C. Brogden, the County Home
Demonstrator, Miss Myrtle Esell,
the local school board and their
wives, on laat Friday evening.
Although the weather was bleak
and cold the affair was a brilliant
one. The dining room, which had
been equipped by the Country
Life Club this year, was a thing
of beauty. The color scheme—
yellow and green—was beautifully
and tastefully carried out in dec
orations and everything through
out. One of the unique thiugs of
(he occasion waa the way the
guests were conducted to the din
ing room. Each member of the
class conducted a guest to his or
her place at the table, where tha
place waa marked by an attractive
place card. The menu read as
follows: -
Cream Tomato Soup, Cheese Straws,
Chicken Salad, Beaten Biscuit,
Corn Oysters, Potato Chips, Pickle*,
Krult Si-lad. Vanilla Walters,
Coffee, Mint*.
After the elegant serving the
guests felt that in spite of the
weather, "It was good to have
been hero." All —the scheme; the
meuu, the dlnnett the serving
gave evidence of the excellent
training the girls have received in
Domestic Scieuce and bespoke the
efficiency of the teacher.
I Mr. Brogden made a short but

WHY THE DRUGS ARE HIGH.
-- -r + v
The Case of Quinine an liliutriHoa
A Suggestion.
Baltimore San.
Everybodywho baa .bad occa
sion to nae medicine in tbe laat
year baa been pained and surpris
ed by the increased prices of drugs
of all sorts, and baa accepted with
mora or lees jtelnctauce the con
venient explanation that it waa
due to tbe war. With regard to
aome things this is unquestion
ably true. Whether tC is true as
to all we do not know, but from a
bulletin recently iaaued by Mr.
Edward Albes, of the Pan-Ameri
can Union, there can be no doubt
that the inoreaae in the price of
quinine can be fairly attributed
to this cause. The cinchona tree
is a native of South America, bat
the forest product in that region
WAS long ago superseded in the
markets of the world by that from
the plantations established by
Great Britain in India, Ceylon
and Jamaica, and by Holland in
Sava. The war has created a
greatly increased demand for quin
ine, and Great Britain is care
fully husbanding her supply for
the use of her armies or those of
her allies, while the Dutch supply
is largely used by the Central
Powers
But there are still cinchona
trees in South America, we im
agine, and would it not pay to aid
in the development of an industry
in that region similar to that of
the British and the Dutch in tfie
East? Might not the chinchona
iee grow in Florida? We ask
this in humble ignorance. Tea
culture in South Caroliua never
became a practical industry, and
perhaps the same fate might at
tend an experiment with this val
uable tree, if, indeed, the experi
ment has not already been made.
At all events, it will certainly
grow where it was first discover
ed, and one lesson of the war
would seem to be to promote its
culture in its native clime. If we
should ever be at loggerheads
with Great Britain, the quinine
question would be embarrassing.
Potatoes May Drive Out Horses.
Saturday Globe,
Will the patient old horse be
driven out of existence by the potato?
The qnestion seems absured, yet
there is much to show that it is not
at all inappropriate, in view of the
world's progress towards better
conditions of life. The civilization
of to-dsy, as never before, demands
the best. N umerons inventions have
made possible vast improvementa
and, stimulated by the insistent
demand, science has added revolu
tionary discoveries. Thus elevated,-
the plane of living has become far
superior to that of a few generations
ago. Among other things to yield
to this upward advance, the horse
may be compelled to back off the
stage of life. )
To America belongs the proud
honor of contributing to the world
its greatest crop in point of yield—
the white potato. From the land of
the Incaa in Peru it made its bow to
civilization and has girdled the earth,
winning the esteem of all ita people
No other plant in the vegetable
kingdom has ever, in so short s
time, gone so far or met with such
universal favor. Half a billion bush-,
els are grown in North America to
day, while Europe produces approx
imately 1G times as much. The po
tato has become a prime factor in
the of the human raoe. Moreover,
it offers s solution of one of the im
portant problems faced by the farm
mers in their great work of keeping
the world's market basket filled.
There are today more than 100,-
000,000 horses in the world, most of
them being on the farms. To pro
vids these animals with bay and
grain and pasturage requires several
hundred million seres of the world's
best lsnd, which could be put to
better use if the horse were elimi
nated.
How can the potato drive out
horses ?
Tbe potato furniahes an admirable
material out of which to make alco
h>l for motive power. Under mod
ern methods of distillation, a few
seres of potatoes can be made to yield
snough alcohol to drive the tractors
of an ordinary farm. One of ths
principal reaaona why farmers have
contiuued to use horses is that com
paratively little caah outlay waa re
quired for their keep. Now it de
velops that a very much smaller
acreage, with correpondingly less in
vestment of lsbor, is required to
provide the necessary alcohol for a
tractor-operated farm. Acre for sere,
potatoes can be made to do mora than
the hone. Get the point ?
Many advanced fanners in various
parte of the world have discarded
the horse for potato-alcohol-d riven
tractors. Ths results havs been re
marksbls in every instance. The
development of human history shows
ms ny amazing advancements.
Among tbe greatest of these, future
generations may point to ths great
stride taken when the humble potato
drove out the horse,

A£TO TAKING EXERCISE.
Why You Should Not and Why You
Should-
Some one hss given the following
reasons why one shouldn't tske ex
ercise.
1. You might hsve some fun.
2. You might make some new
| friends.
8. You might so improve your
sppesrsnce thst your friends would
not know you.
4. You might become so full of
1 snap and vigor that you, could not
restrain yourself from overwork.
5. You might become so strong
i that you coujd do odd Jobs about
the house such as cutting wood or
bringing up the coal.
0. You mirht create such an ap
petite thst tne folks st home might
complain that you eat to much.
T. You might never get sick and
therefore be unable to take a day
off now and then. .
8. You might take too may baths
as a result.
9. You might be able to run for
a car without being winded.
10. You might become so grace
ful in your movements and so light
on your feet that your friend*
would not recognize you coming
down the street.
Dr. Woods Hutchinson in his re
marks on exercise says this: In
deed the most dangerous feature
of fads in physical culture is that
by their narrowness and injudi
ciouaness they prevent you from
getting enough of it. We doctors
feel toward physical culture and
outdoor exercise pretty much as the
great preacher, Spurgeon, did
about giving. Re was urging a
group of ministers to get their con
gregations to give. "But, said
one of them, "isn't it possible for
a church to give so much' that it
will leave nothing for itself and
go to pieces?'- "Well," said the
freat divine, "that might happen,
ut if you ever hear of such a
church dying because it gave
too much, just send for me and
111 come and preach its funeral
free of charge and my text will be,
'Blessed are the Dead That Die
in the Lord."- Business men go to
pieces not because they take too
much exercise but too little. You
can exist without exercise but you
cannot live.
Largest Electric Locomotive.
The largest electric locomotive in
the world is one of 60 ordered by
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railroad for use on its eletrified
mountain divisions for hauling both
freight and passengers. The engine
is 112 feet, 8 inches long; weighs
284 tons and has a potential voltage
of 3,000. Each engine will have
3.000 horse power developed by
eight direct current motors. The
motors are conneceed with the eight j
axles.
These engines are constructed to
carry 2,500-ton loads over one per
cent, grades at an average speed of
16 miles an hour. Geared for vary
ing speeds, the engines will haul an
800 ton passenger train 60 miles an
hour. These are the first electric
locomotives to be constructed with
direct motors.

Paper Bags as Breastworks.
Owing to the limited supply of
cotton in Germany the saml bags
used in constructing breastworks
are now being made of a specially
prepared paper. Experience has
proved that these new paper bags
are much superior to cotton bags
for durability and cost less.
After cotton bags havo been in use
jfor some time they wean out from
exposure and must be replaced.
The paper bags which are n >w being
used have been scientifically prepar
ed, are waterproof and may be used
over and over again, being practically
indestructible. Millions of these
bags are being used in place of the
cotton ones, which means quite a
saving both in cotton and cost.
