PROPHECY CAME TRUE.
BS& w ® came acroes an old copy of
Charlotte Observer of Dec. 22,
IMS, a few daye ago. Ita news col
li umns contained a dispatch telling
r About G. Marconi's success in send
ing » wireless meesago across the
from Cape Breton, Canad», to
Cornwall, England, and a message
to King Edward VII from the Gov
ernor General of Canada.
Commenting on Marconi's suc
oees, the Charlotte Obeerver, then
edited by Mr. Joeeph P. Caldwell,
one of the moet distinguished edi
torial writers this State has pro
dnoed, said:
"We can see no ground for iu
, Credulity in Marooni'aannouncement
that he baa really sent messages
across the ocean without the aid ol
(wire«. The idea of telegraphing
without wipea ia hard to grasp, but
it ia not more wonderful in thie sge
than was the invention of the first
" crude eyetem of telegraphy to the
people of that period. Tbe age ol
wireleee telegraphy ia at hand. What
we are expecting next is for man to
fly. and read and eend out wireleee
massages as he goee."
What Mr. Caldwell was "expect
ing" has literally come true, and
pity it is he did not live to see it.
Evan had he lived to thie good day
ha would not have beon an old man.
Frequently among hie editorial
aquibe would be found an expression
lika this: They will fly through the
air lika birda. Mr. Caldwell be
lieved that the ingenuity of man in
the aocompliahmeut of scientific
wonders was in iu infancy, lie was
wiaer than his generation knew.

SUMMER ACTIVITY
AT UNIVERSITY N. C.

„ Public Welfare, Social Workers,
Regular Credit College Work, Etc
Cor. of The (Meaner. .
Chapel Ilill, N. 0, March 16.~
Plana for the summer activities of
the University of North Carolina
as announced recently by Presi
dent Chase include, beside the
regular summer school for teach
ers and for college students, the
second meeting of the Stale and
county council, the North Caro
lina Road Inatitute under the
general oversight of Bute High
way Commissioner Frank Page, a
special Institute for secretaries of
chambers of commerce aod other
commercial and trade organiza
tions, and. the bepinniug of in
struction iu the newly foimed
school of public welfare.
The summer school proper,
Director N. W. Walker said, will
begin Tuesday, June 22, and will
continue C weeks, closing Thurs
day, August 6. Important in
creases in courses, both those
counting for n collegetdegree and
those for teachers, have been
made.
Beginning at the same time but
continuing for six weeks later will
be the special courses prepared
by the University anl the Reil
Cross for lied Cross secretaries,
charity organization secretaries,
Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. sec
retaries, and social workers of
every kind. Included in the sum
mer school also will be a special
course for North Carolina county
superintendents of public welfare,
to be conducted by the same com
bination of University and Red
Cross officials.
Shortly after the close of the
summer school the fecond session
of the State and county council
will stait, probably around Au
gust 10, runiiiug three days. At
the same timo will begin a week's
course for commercial secretaries
now being arranged by the State
association of secretaries of cham
bers of commerce and the Uni
versity school of commerce. Tying
up with both of these will bo Com
missioner Page's annual road in
stitute, which is expected to run
a week also.
Eighteen departments will offer
courses in the summer school
which will be counted as credit
toward a degree. Opportunity is
thus provided, Director Walker
pointed out, for students to cut
down materially in the old-time
system of four years for an A. U.
degree. Graduates of standard
colleges are able to obtain a
master's degree in four summers.
A marked drift toward this work
in recent years has been noted by
University ofllnials. Fast year
362 students took college courses
in the summer school and this
year the number is expected to
run higher.
For teachert) the department of
education offers eight courses, in
cluding one showing modern
methods of teaching all thestaud
ard high school subject. Courses
are also offered in the normal
school department in accordance
with the plans of the State de
partment of education's plans for
North Carolina teachers. A iftodel
demount rat ion school will hu
shown.
Special opportunities in music
will lio offered this summer
through Prof. Paul J. Weaver of
the University department of
music. The Carolina Choi-its and
community singing in all its forms
will be organized, as well as in
strumental music. The original
plays of the Carolina I'laymakers,
uuder the direction of I'rof.
Frederick 11. Koch, will bo pre
sented also.

It is a true saying that your

itself in a healthy, coin

And just as positively does poor,
thin blood direetly influence the

languidness; tiredness; woru-out

unhappiness—all are positive
signs that the body is not re

• SUFFDUM TWO YUM
Judging from her letter, the mis
ery and wretchedness endured by
Mrs. Charlie Taylor, R. F. D. No. 1,
Box 144, Dillon, S. C., must have
been terrible. No one, after read
ing her letter, can continue to
doubt the great healing power
of PE-RU-NA for troubles due
to catarrh or catarrhal conditions
in any part of the body. Her
letter is an inspiration to every
sick and suffering man or wofnan
anywhere. Here it Is: "I suffered
two years with catarrh of the head,
stomach and bowels. Tried two of
the best doctors, who gave me up.
I then took PE-RU-NA and can
truthfully say lam welL When 1
began to use PE-RU-NA, I weighed
one hundred pounds. My weight
now Is one hundred and fifty. I
cannot praise PE-RU-NA too
highly, for it was a Godsend to me.
I got relief from the first half
bottle and twelve bottles cured me.
I advise all sufferers to take
PE-RU-NA"
As an emergency remedy in the
home, there is nothing quite the
equal of this reliable, time-tried
medicine, PE-RU-NA Thousands
place their sole dependence on it
for coughs, colds, stomach and
bowel trouble, constipation, rheu
matism, pains in the back, side and
loins ana to prevent the grip and
Spanish Flu. To keep tfie blood
pure and maintain bodily strength
and robustness, take PE-RU-NA.
You can buy PE-RU-NA any
where in either tablet or liquid
form. -

It is impossible to estimate the
extent to which human ills and disease
owe their origin to disordered' and
impure blood. Think of the various

their origin in diseased blood con
ditions. And no one questions that
Rheumatism starts in blood.
So it is important to watch the
blood and to begin treatment at the
first signs of disorder. By taking
such troubles in time and through
persistent attention, harmful results
and much suffering can be avoided.
Nearly everyone is familiar with
the so-called blood disorders as evi
denced by pimples, rash, itching, etc.
It is not important whether these
symptoms indicate eczema, saltrheum
scrofula, etc., bat it Is vitally Impera
tive that the blood be riven treatment
to make it healthy. Here should not
he an instant's delay in doing this.

Is this innovation a bid for the

How much grace will the allies

note for the ex-kaiser?
And the disfiguring effects pro
duced by these blood impurities are
embarrassing to the sufferer. A
remedy should be used which not only
drives the impurities out of the blood
but which will at the same time re
move every trace of pimple, rash and
"breaking out"
A positive and qfllck treatment for
these blood disorders is supplied by
Acid Iron Mineral—a new form of
liquid iron. Its first function is to
strengthen and purify the blood by
putting iron into it. Thus impurities
are driven out and the blood is ett

from blemish, perfect health through
out the body is established.
