Less By 122 Bales Than in 1916.
A card from the census bureau,
Department of Commerce, Washing
ton, to Mr. P. A. Holt, who furnishes
ginners* reports for Alamance, states
that 200 bales of cotton, counting
round as half bales, were ginned in
this county from the 1917 crop prior
to Nov. 14th as against 322 ginned
from the 1916 crop up to the
same date. If the report indicates
the production, the crop is more than
one-third short of last year's c#op,
which would account in some meas
ure for the high price at which the
staple is selling and would also in
dicate that the high-water mark is
not yet reached.

Ex-Sheriff J. A. Hamilton was ap

The Grand Jury finished their work
Wednesday afternoon and were dis
charged.
The Judge in his charge to the
(3rand Jury called attention to the
increase in the size of criminal
dockets, incident to t he unrest
growing out of the world-war cri
sis as he believed. He observed
that there is an additional duty in
cumbent upon all good citizens
that society may be protected.
The court has made good prog
ress with the docket and na case
has been continued where it could
be avoided.
To defendants who have been
found guilty of the violations of
law charged against them have re
ceived sentences in Tims and im
prisonments as the court believed
commensurate with the offenses.
At the opening of the court it
was hoped to get through by Wed
nesday afternoon, but, on account
of the addition of other cases ana
the passing over so few, the court
will last at least till Friday after
noon.

Problems That Confront Democracy
in the World War
Will be Foaght at Ualveralty.
Cor. of the Gleaner.
Chapel Hill, N. C., Nov. 27.
"Program of Extension Service
for a Time of War" is the title of
a new bulletin which for the first
time gives in detail the plans for
the new extension centers and
lists specific lectures and lecturers
for the coming year. The Uni
versity of North Carolina has
recognized the need of adapting
its extension work to the needs of
the time. "The doty of the Uni
versity to investigate and to teach
can never be abrogated, least of
ail in a democracy in time of war.
This duty is to be discharged
through the ordinary channels
within the University itself; it is
also to be discharged through the
extension of its influence through
out the territory which it serves.
The machinery for this extension
is already in oxistenre. In the
present crisis it is to be brought
to bear upon the new and difficult
problems that confront our de
mocracy."
To this end several changes
have been made in ihe extra
mural service of the University.
The most important of these is
the establishment of extension
centers in certain communities.
At these centers, organized under
the direction of University met),
courses will be given by members
of the regular University teach
ing staff, with provisions for study
groups. The courses will be con
fined to the general topic "Ameri
ca and the World War". Their
purpose is to study history, liter
ature, political science and science
from this standpoint; to study the
issues of the war, and methods by
which our democracy may be
rendered more effective in war
and in peacl, the international re
lations of the United States, and
the progress of democracy in other
nations. Meinbt-rs of the center
will register for such courses as
they wish to take, whether for
credit towards a degree, for guid
ance in readiug in connection with
lectures, or for correspondence
study. The aims of this work are
threefold: to supply a proper
back-ground in history and liter
ature for the understanding of the
present, to supply guidance for
the interpretation of the sudden
and enormous complexity of life
as it now confronts us, and to
seek to gain from this knowledge
"veracity of thought and ac
tion".
"Student Activities," to use a
familiar campus term, will be as
much a part of the life of the
center as of the men living at
Chapel Hill. One form of this ac
tivity, for example, will be par
ticipation in the work of the
LaKayette Association which has
heretofore been briefly outlined.
The University recognizes the
difficulty in establishing centers
lor study in a territory having no
great metropolitan population,
but it believes these difficulties
can be overcome.

Eton Takes the Pint. i
Three debates have been sched
uled with the North Carolina State
College of Agriculture and Engi
neering. The first came in Raleigh
on November JSrd. The others are
to come off next fail and the fall !
after.
In thla debate Elon was repre
sented by Messrs. R J. Morton, '
Jacksonville, N. C.; H. 8. Hard- '
castle, Dover, Del.; and H. T. !
Floyd, Roanokq. Ala.; with L. D. ,
Martin, Suffolk Va, alternate. The
query was, "Resolved, that military 1
training for men should be given i
in all American Colleges and Uni- ,
versifies." Elon had the negative
and won over honorable and wor
thy opponents. The decision, two
to one was rendered by Hon. Jos.
G. Brown, Dr. Z. M .Caviness, ana
Ron. J. M. Broughton, Jr., all of
Raleigh.
The A. and E. orators were Mess.
M. G. James, 7>. A. McCall and 1.
S. Coats. They were arrayed in
thr regulation uniform and looked
a fine argument for their cause.
The Elon men wore the conven
tional fulll dress, and as we have
said, achieved a hard fought vic
tory. Thfey were manly losers.

Depopulating the School.
One of the very best ways of
• improving the quality of the teach
ing in our schools is to attract into
, the profession the best talent in
school and college. And now
since teachers, like all other peo
ple, ought to be paid enough to
enable them to provide for their
support in old age, the best talent
will never be attracted into the
school work so long as the present
low salaries are paid. Your son
or daughter will not teach for a
smaller monthly salary five or six
months in the year than he could
make per month during the whole
year. . , ' . .»
Tbe Blank town High School
The school committee of Blank
town advertised for a teacher who
could teach all of the High School
studies mentioning especially
Latin, English, Arithmetic, and
German. Salary $57.50 per month
for eight months.
In the same paper there was an
advertisement calling for 1000 la
borers at 12.75 per day of ten
hours, and for carpenters at $5.50
per day of ten hours. These men
were wanted to build warehouses
for the government. The teacher
is needed to build character for

A, contribution to the Journal of
the American Medical £MO elation,
citing the popular opinion of o
few yeara ago in respect to soiled
paper money, says it is to-day re
garded by many as extremely dan
gerous to handle, and many people
still insist on clean Mils when they
are getting change*. Bank tellers
rarely exhibit such aversion, nor do
they give history of exceptional in
cidence of infectious diseases. Cur
rency has been blamed for the
3> read of disease and death, esp"s
ally when it has been difficult to
find the true etlologic agency, ft
la recalled that not long ago a
case of myxedema was regarded as
the outcome of counting money.
Because of such apparently exag
gerated contentions, an actual in
vestigation of the bacteria prea?nt
on aoiled money wns made by Pfol.
Hildltich, who arrived at the con
clualon that money constitutes an
unimportant factor in the trans
mission of disease. It is pointed
out that a more frequent redemp
tion of aoiled and worn bills is nec
eaaary, yet the facts and evidences
at hand do not Justify the needless
alarming of the nublic by rash
statements concerning currency
Death Rate in Army Camps.
Although 96 deaths occurred at
National Guard and National
army camps during the week end
ing November 16, health condi
tions at a majority of the camps
were more satisfactory than tne
week previous, field sanitation re
ports to the surgeon general show.
Pneumonia, epidemic in some
Southern camps and most preva
lent where there are many cases
of measles, claimed 01 vict'ma
during the week.
The highest sick rates come
from camps at which Southern
troops are training. The rato in
the National Guard is 42.0 a thous
and, compared with 28,5 for the
National army men. The highest
rate was at Camp Travis, Fort
Sam Houston, Texas, where meas
les is increasing. The rate is 87 0
a thousand. Camp Meade at An
napolis Junction, Md„ showed the
cleanest slate, with a rate of 0,1.
