DON. E. SCOTT,

Lieut. D. G.Sullivan Dead.
The news of the death of Lieu f .
Sullivan was a shock to everyone
who knew him. He was taken sick
Saturday, and died about noon Mon
day in a hospital in Raleigh. Lieut.
Sullivan at the time of his death waa
in service with the Supply Co. of the
3rd N. C. Reg. He was born in
Oibaonville. When a boy his fami
ly moved to Burlington, and in his
'teens he enlisted in the U. S. Army,
serving two enlistments in Cuba
and the Philippine Islands. While
in the Philippines he was in nine
engagements. When he camo out
of service he enlisted in the
Infirmary of the 3rd Regiment.
He moved to Graham, living here
about two years; then to Reidsville,
where he was a police officer and by
faithful service he was appointed
chief of police and held the job until
the call came.
Four years ago he was promoted to
Serg.-Maj. of the 3rd Reg. When
the call came June 19, 1916, he was
the first man to report to his coman
der and at once reported for duty
He was promoted to Lieut, of the
Supply Co., going to El I'aso, Tex.
When the Reg. returned his compa
ny was not mustered out and when
he died he was still in service.
Sullivan, as I called him, being
one of his tent mates while in
service, always had a cheering word
for everyone. He always tried to
make the boys feel good and happy.
He will be missed by both officers
and men. His remains arrived at
Burlington Monday evening.
The funeral was conducted by
Rev. T. 8. Brown and his remains
buried in tho Pine Hill Cemetery,

BirtW*- Celebration.
Mr. J. D. Cooper celebrated his
67th birthday on Saturday,"May
10th. A large number of relatives
leathered in honor of the occasion.
The following interesting paper
WHS read on ihe occasion by Miss
Myrtle Cooper of Graham:
As we meet here today to cele
brate the 67th birthday of our re
spected kinsman, it is fitting that
I, the youngest of his nieces or
nephews, give you a brief history
ol the ancestry of the Cooper
family.
J. D. Cooper's great grand
father OD liis mother's aide WHS
Coonrod Ringstaff. He served in
the Revolutionary War and was
at Yorktown, Va.,- when Lord
Cornwallis surrendered to General
Washington. He'was a man of
splendhl physical powers and
many interesting stories are told
of his powers as a boxer and prize
tighter. He was seven feet tall.
He died May 19th, 1850, at the
age of one hundred ami ten years.
James Ringstaff, Coonrod's son,
served actively in the war of 1812.
lie had three Bons who fought
bravely in the war between the
North and South. He himßelf
lived to be 91 years old.
Mark Cooper, J. D. Cooper's
grandfather, came from the State
of Virginia. Tradition says that
he was a descendant of the famous
Princess Pocahontas and John
Rolfe. He was educated in Vir
ginia and came to North Carolina
as a school teacher and was count
ed one of the best scholars in the
State at that time. He balanced
a great sum of figures at Hillsboro
that many experts had failed to
balance. He wrote with a goose
quill pen and was master of six
teen different lauguages. He also
served in the great Revolutionary
War.
Richard Cooper, son of Mark
Cooper, was too old for the Civil
War but sent one son, William 11.
Cooper, to die for the South. This
brother of J. D. Cooper was mort
ally wounded at the battle of
Gettysburg and was taken prisoner
by the Federal troops. Captain
Braith said of him that he was one
of the bravest men that died for
the Confederacy. „
The late A. Q. Cooper was in
the 'Confederate reserve corps at
the age of seventeen.
And so, my friends, you can see
th't the record of the Cooper
family has been a record of sol
diers. Since Mark Cooper's emi
gration from Virginia the family
has applied itself to farming in
the Southern part of Alkmance
county.
Now in the greatest war that
the world has ever known, J. D.
Cooper's youngest nephew, Tbos.
Duncan Cooper of Graham, has
enlisted as a volunteer for the
French aid corps. Today nations
grapple with nations in the most
gigautic struggle the world has
ever witnessed. Men hurl them
selves at each others throats and
annihilate thousands at one blow
from their deadly weapons Think,
my friends, of the vastuess of ii!
Why, in this war we have known
the Germans to capture and put
out of commission in one day
more soldiers than the South wax
able to raise during the Btrtice
four years of the Civil War. So
let us not think that we have done
our parti.. Let us not think that
our brave ancestors have done our
flghting for us. But let ub remem
ber that our country needs us
now, and even though we cannot
engage in actual service we can
do "our bit" at home. Just now
our Governor calls for the farmer
to volunteer his services. Just
now our motto is, "that every
upturned furrow shall roach into
the French trenches and every
blade ot wheat shall be a spear,,"
And let us resolve that whether
we go or stay we will render to
our country such service that our
patriotic ancestors shall not bo
ashamed of.

Cor. ot The Gleaner.
Mr. Wm. Spoon died at his home
near Oakdaie on the of th'
22nd, and wan buried at Mt. Ziom
on the 24th. He had been in declin
ing health and hiH death wait not
unexpected.
Dr. H. B. Fost-r and If. B, Jr.,
spent Saturday night with his la
ther'* family.
The cool nights are a lit.le dis
couraging to the farmer though he
still keeps plowing and planting
expecting summer laf-r ; .he can:
afford to sit and whine when the
weather Is cold nor when it is hot
as some people do. There is a crass
who whine at everything, and th-rn
isnt anything in the world more
disagreeable than a whin ing per
son. It Is just a habit the.v have
fallen Into, and a bad. habit, too.
The thing to do is to brace up—
go to work, b? something, stand
for something, fill your place in
world. Do your duty and be a
model citizen. Make sonv thing of
yourself; reach up to the stature
of a strong ennobling manhood.

North Carolina Grows in Tuberculosis
Agencies.
North Carolina's growth in
agencies and institutions for flght
ing tuberculosis has increased
from only four sanatoria in 1005
to 15 sanator'a, including the
State Sanatorium with a capacity
for 150 patients, in 1916, also 15
active auli-luberculosis associa
tions and two dispensaries or
clinics for the tr atment of this
disease.
A map recently published by
the National Tuberculosis Asso
ciation shows that thero are in
this country today 3,500 different
anti-tuberculosis agencies, 550 of
which are special sanatoria or
hospitals, 450 are dispensaries or
clinics, and 300 more are open air
schools for the treatment of tuber
culosis in childreu. There are
also 1,400 anti-tuberculosis asso
ciations and commit tees.
Ten or eleven years ago there
.were only 150 institutions and
organizations together doing tu
berculosis work in the country.
One hundred of these were sana
toria or hospitals, most of which
wore poorly equipped. At that
time there were less than 80 anti
tuberculosis societies and less than
20 tuberculosis clinics. Thero was
not one open air school. Then
only five States had undertaken
to control this disease while now
every State in the Union is arous
ed to this necessity and is making
progress iu the fight. As a result
of these efforts, the ileathrate
from has been re
duced from 200.7 per 100,000
population in 1904 to 140.8 per
100,000 population iu 11114.
According to the map, New
York has 108 open air schools,
