S. 175-N.C. at Foot In Southern States. The University News Letter gives the following very interest ng information about Liberty Bond buying in North Carolina, tnd shows how Tar Ileels must mend their lick for the Fourth Loan now on: The home-guard patriots of North Carolina men and women ilike, are now busy marketing 'orty million dollars of fotirth iberty loon bODds. - It looks like a big undertaking tnd it is. It amounts to almost exactly S6O per family, counting joth races. Many households will be unable x> buy a fifty dollar bond; which neans that the thrifty well-to-do will need to buy beyond thiß iverage—just as far beyond it as lelf-denying patriotism will per nlt. North Carolina did well with ,he third liberty loan. Ourquota was 18 millions and 24 millions were subscrib- d. It was a third jver the mark, which was the iverage for the country-at-large. fu the amount subscribed we kept up with the procession pretty well. Hut—of the 2,431,000 in the State in 1918, only 81,582 people bought bonds. Which is to say, 9nly 34 people In every 1,000 were bond buyers, while 00ft had no part in this loan. The averagd of buyers in the Uuited States was 175 per 1,000 of population. In this particular we were at the bottom of the list. Every other Southern State stood ahead of us. Not even South Otolina afforded us any satisfaction. Her buyers numbered 53 per 1,000 of popula tion. They out numbered our bond buyers by more than 50 per cent! A prepared table shows 29.89 of each 100 in New Hanover county and 10.61 of each 100 in Mecklen burg county bought. These coun ties lead the list. The number runs down to almost none before the State is covered. In 17 coon ties less than one in a hundred bought bonds. An analysis of the returns shows the lead to have IK en taken in the cities and the big oity coun ties, and the absolute necessity of aur getting to the country coun ties and the country people in the big city counties. Only 23 counties were above the State average of 34 per 1,000, while 77 counties were below it. The townspeople have assumed heavy burdens in the purchase of liberty bonds and war stamps. The country people have the m'ouey and the fervent patriotism. They will take three-fourths of this forty million dollar loan, if only we get to them in this cam paign . / " Atlantic Const Inventor*.

H»ve You Your Winter's Wood Supply i Chapel Hill, Oct. sth. —The United States Fuel Ad ml niet ra tion says of 'the coal. situation: "Fewer miners are obtainable than last year, but those left at the mines are working as never before. Everything that can be done to increase production and facilitate distribution is being done. Everyone, to keep the country safe and prosperous, must begin saving as never before." Have you, as an individual, or has your towfi', done everything possible .to substitute wood for coal for domestic use? If not, do not delay another day. . ( Most cities and towns of North Carolina, warned by the shortage of last winter, have been urging their people to buy wood in place of coal and to buy it early. This has had a good effeet, bnt in many cases it has not been sufficfent, and many towns have already come to the conclusion that some more radical action on their part will be necessary if suffering is to be avoided. Experience has shown that "wood-cutting bees" and other volunteer organizations of wood-cntters are a great help in stirring up public interest and actlvlty-in the subject, bnt as a means of securing fuel, they are not sufficient. It is uow generally conceded that towns and indi viduals will have to depeud, to a large extent, on the farmers and others who have been used to cut ting wood for this service, al though the hauling, cutting up and distribution can be done by citizen committees or municipali ties. The important conditions are: First, that a sufficient price must be paid for the wood to induce its being out in the woods and, second, that it must be handled and distributed as cheaply as pos sible inerder to make it no more expensive than coal. Last winter at least thirty towns in this State formed some organi sation for the distribution of fuel. While a few went into it very thoroughly and successfully, other* distributed wood ODIJ to the really needy. Some of the larger towns such as AsheviUe, Durham, and Greensboro, ran large wood yards, placing their management in the hands of one of the town commissioners. They purchased wood anywhere they could get it and took necessary WHY WOMEN SUFFER Hu; (inkia Ho»i Ar» l*«rnlii(t the (HUM. Women often suffer not know ing the cause.

Foster-Milburn CO., Mfgrs., Buffalo, .W Y. steps to have it cut and hauled to their yard and there cut up and distributed. Bryson City, Char lotte, Winston-Salem, and Rocky Mount also had municipal wood yards of this kind. In most cases the wood waa sold at cost—the object being merely to relieve the very pressing necessity and not to make a profit for the town out of the transaction. towns officially co-operat ed with the Chamber of Com merce, the Associated Charities, or with a Citizeus Committee ap pointed for the purpose of reliev ing distress or meeting the de mand. The town of Roxboro kept a carload of wood on hand for an emergency, while the town of Chapel Hill used ita street force to cut, haul and deliver wood dur ing the worst weather to those who had none. Payment at the regular rate was required from those who could pay, while the needy had their wood free. At Chapel Hill the University furn ished the timber without charge, only dead trees being cut, and the woods being thereby greatly improved. The town of Thomasville ap pointed one man to make all pur chases and measure all wood com ing into town. In this way a price was established and maintained— the farmer was sure of his money, while the buyer was protected against short measurement and inferior wood. It Is presumed that a less price was paid for poor wood than for good wood. This is a point which is often lost sight of. In handling the wood situa tion it must be remembered that sound dry oak and hickory are of twice the heating value of pine, poplar, or partly rotten hard woods. • In view of the uncertainty of the fuel supply for next winter it would seem advisable for every town which has not yet an assured winter's supply on hand, to ap point a committee to have charge of the situation, giving them power to take what action seems necessary. In some cases it may be sufficient to urge all citizens to take the necessary individual ac tion, while other towns may de cide to put up potters in the near by oountry, regulate prices so that cutting will be stimulated, or even purchase wood themselves and maintain a regular wood yard. The important thing is that ac j tlon be taken at once. It Is no use waiting until the roads and weather are bad as every spare hour should be utilized for the ' production of oordwood. Let the ; farmers know that the towns are anxious to have the wood and will I pay a fair price for it and half the battle will be won.

Chapel Hill, Oct. 14.—Captain Charles C. Helper, a veteran of the Spanish-American war, had just been detailed to the Uni versity of North Carolina by the War Department to relieve Lieut.- Col. G. W. S. Stevens as com mandant in charge. Colonel Stevens has been assigned to an other post. Captain Helmer is originally from Des MoinOs, lowa. The military faculty has had one continuous busy session since the opening of the University last month. Both day and night they have been working on the sched ules and arranging the other do tails of military routine. Although the student soldiers have experi enced much red tape under the new order, the smoothness with which the necessary readjust ments have been made has won their warm commendation. The men are now quartered in barracks according to their com panies. Later they will be roomed according to squads. With fine weather aa an ally, military drill is beginning to develop real sol diers. Five companies have been organized, four S. A. T. C. . The S. A. T. C. men drill twice each day, in the morning And after noon, while non-S. A. T. C. men, including those taking the train ing but not inducted, drill in the afternoon only. All other stu dents are required to secure exer cise in the gymnasium. The Marine Section of the S. A. T. C. which was recently estab lished at the University, with a quota not to exeeed 100 haa been attracting much interest among the students, with the result that many are asking to be transferred to this branch of service. A com-! missioned officer, Fliat Lieut. R. F. Boyd, and J. S. Stump, Ser geant Major, have been detailed to the University to take charge of this section. They have their headquarters in the University Inn. The purpose of the Marine Section here is to train men for offioers. Those registering for this section will probably be kept in the University for three months where they will be given a course anited to their needs. They will be senfceither to the officers' school at Quantioo, Va, to the Massa chusetts Institute of Technology at Boston for training in Marine Aviation, or to the depot brigade at Paria Island, 8. C„ where they will take a course preparatory to the officers' school. The military faculty at the Uni versity now contains a total of 14 members. At least 48 University men re ceived commissions at the Platts burg Camp, New York, last month. It is quite probable that the total number surpassed this since no official list haa been received from Plattsborg officials. Kaiserism is on the run.
