CEDAR BOCK HIGH SCHOOL News Of ' Interest To Teachers, Pupils and The Public Generally By School Correspondent ???*???* After many days o? unfavorable weathei it is indeed delightful to see these sunny days, and to see the school rooms filled with bright eyed children who come to prepare them selves for the duties of tomorrow. Who knows what geniuses we may be harboring in our midst, or what fu ture citizens of fame we now call ?comrade . What tho future holds for UB we know not, but It Is our duty to train ourselves so that we may be able to take advantage of the oppor tunities that may be presented. MiBS Beulah Stalllngs spent last weefc-end with her mother in Bunn. Mrs. J. T. Inscoe has;been ill for the last few days. The Seniors are progressing nicely on their class play. The date of pre sentation will be announced at an early date. We regret that Clyde Leonard, one ot our high school pupils, has been absent this week on account of illness. We wish him a speedy recovery . Misses Mary Smith and Oma Bliss Lewis and Messrs. Richard Jennings and W. L. Harris motored to Wake Forest Saturday night to see the bas ketball game between Wake Forest and N. C. State. Wake Forest was ?victorious by a score or i* to 22. Do not forget the Sunday school and preaching services next Sunday morn ing. Student Editorial? -OPPORTUNITIES (By Bonnie Griffin, Sin Grade) What ara opportunities? And when do they present themselves? ' They come to us every day, and some of us never make any efforts to grasp them until it is too late. Thousands of opportunities come to girls and boys in school, yet they r.ever seem to think 4*at there is real ly any good ill doing little needs ol kindness that are needed so much in our schools of today. Just a^ smile sometimes can carry so much joy in to a heart that is sad and heavy and perhaps a kind word spoken in a dark hour Will win for us the everlasting lt.ve and friendship of a worthy friend. ... ... We should all be on the lookout for golden opportunities, ruv If we are careless and neglectful we will not realize what they meant to us until they have flown and when once an op portunity presents Itself and we fail to make use of it. it never comes again. So when we have a chatlCe to do a kind deed or speak a word of cheer let us not slack on tile Job for the small deeds done.ln everyday life are the deeds that shall rise to greet us in that new world to come. Lavoisier Chemical Society . the Sugar industry (By Boone SykesTC ' If we will tr%c6 It back we will find that sugar in former years was more of a luxury than a necessity, but Its uses aro increasing rapidly. Now let us first consider the plants that contain sugar. The most lm ?nortant are cane and beets, but tbero Is sugar found In carrots, parsnips, plums, sorghum, maple trees and even onions during their early growth. Cane being the most important of the group must be grown in a warm cli mate, as is found In'Cuba, India, Java and Brazil, where the temperature re mains from 76 to 80 degree, tht (year rou?d, and has a rainfall of 60 Inches, or an equivalent amount of water by Irrigation . The growth of tie cane depends more on the climate than the soil. From one planting In Cuba they are able to cut from eight to ten crops. This cane Is a^so grown in Natal, New Zealand, Cape Colony. Hawaii and, Louisiana, but on account of our freezing winter, there is but one good crop grown In Louisiana. Although the second and third crop is cut. The third Is used mostly for plants for another year. The reason why Louisiana grows more can? thijn any other State In the Union has been due to the overflowing of the Mississippi river and this Is a very narrow strip of land l]4ng abtSut one mile from the river, Just a few feet higher than the bank of the river. This cane does not require much work, it is cultiva ted with plows while no hoe work l? needed, and the beets are dlffefent en tirely. They need much hoe work. The cutting from the third crop Is placed In the bottom of a furrow and covered, then tho stalks sprout from every Joint, giving a complete stand for the nev< crop. After about ?'*ht months Of growth and cultivation the leaves are stripped off by hand and the stalks are cut and carried to the factory. Here the cane Is crushed to extract the Julco. This Juice con tains many Impurities along with the . sugar. ThMte Impurities are remov ed partly by precipitation and partly by filtering through bone Nack( this Is a substance that consist of carbon and calcium phosphate found In ani mal bones). Then the resulting solu tion it tfvaporated until th? sugar crya talis**. T9? evaporation t? conduct cd In closed vessels from which the alr^is partially exhausted. The boil ing point of the solution Is then low ered. As all of the syrup from the solution Is not removed, that which Settles to the bottom of the pan Is drawn off as ordinary molasses. The Hawaiian crops have averaged over 9,000 lbs of sugar per acre. And in 1911 Hawaii shipped to the United Slates 506,000 tons of sugar. Beets are more difficult to raise than cane, as It takes a climate Just a little too cold for corn. And the best locality for raising beets Is In the West where lrrljpition Is used anjl where they have cold nights, fertile and mellow soil, rich in lime and nei ther too clayey nor too sandy. The ?beets require much plowing and hand work. And due to this difficulty vln production, It is thought that sorghum will take the place' of beets In the near future. This plant Is a member of the corn family and resembles both corn and cane. It la grown in the [ central and southwestern United j States. The Juice is extracted and treated in the same way as that of cana. Maple sugar is quite different frpm ! any of the other sugar producing plants and Is manufactured by the evap cratlon of the sweet sap of <everaL varieties of maple. Which is grown ir. fhe eastern and northern United"; States. This sugar has a peculiar favor and is of very fine quality. ! These maple trees begin yielding at the age of 20 or'25 and continue until I they are 75 and even 100 years old. This is of course a s1ov.it process of manufacturing sugar than any of the other processes just mentioned. But the sugar industry Is increasing rapidly. - The United States produces yearly, nearly one hundred pounds .of sugar to every inhabitant, even, i f it does take about seven tons of cane to ivmke one ton of sugar. The other minor sugar plants are of no great im I ortance in the production of sugar. Use WILLIAM TELL Flour for yes?rs. and you will always find It uniform. 2-23-8t J. S. HOWELL. FIUAKMN IKS. A REALTY CO. LOANS A.\D INSURANCE 7-21tf SYMPTON OF PEACE ON EARTH In Japan the sixth-grade histories and readers used In the public schools havo just been rewritten and thor oughly revised. In keeping with the new spirit which prevails tn Japan the textbooks have been demilitarized and demobilized. The "reader" is a collection of short stories of great men . Of the 400 stories contained in the "reader" only a very few formerly were ot forigners . Nearly all the sketches were of Japa nese military heroes, who were praised for wading through blood to success. In tho new 'reader" more than fifty of the characters described are non-Japanose. Among them are Washington, Lincoln, Edison. Watt, Many non-military great persons are included, and the military heroes who remain are praiised for their peaceful qualities rather than for their ability to kill on a large scale. Japanese educational authorltes, who are decidedly anti-militaristic, believe that.these changes will tend to foster a spirit of International good will. [l?CKt>T HISTORY IN MADE IN 1?2 I More From Top Floor to First In One - Vf?r lit Mew York .show. From a little space with a new car on the top floor at the 1922 national automobile show at New York, Durant | Motors. Inc., advanced to a corete<L position on the main floor In the 1923 I show. -I In this rise lies one of the really big I romances In the automotive Industry. It Is the first time since the manu facture of automobiles began that a car has moved from the top floor to an honor position on the first floor In tbe short space of a year. Hitherto tor a new car to land In the first twenty was considered almost phe nomenal, but In view of the other achievements of the Durant organiza tion during the past year, this feat might be called only incidental. The growth of the Durant Motors, Inc., In the past year has been re markable. It was only a little over a year ago that Durant produced only cne model, the Durant four, which vil first shown to tbe >ublfc on August U, 1921. There was only one complete plant In existence, and that was locat ed at Long Island City, New York. Six Different Units Today the Durant organization com prises six different motor car units, all of which are on the market. Eight factories, of which all but one. are pro duclng cars. Of the Durant four and six, more than 52.000 have Imen sold In less than 14 months. More than 500,000 orders for Star cars have been taken, and a production of 500 Stars a day to meet this demand will begin January 1 . There are mere than 186, 000 stockholders in Durant interests. The separate Durant motor car units include the Durant four an-l six; the Locomobile; the Star car. the Flint six, and the Mason Road King. . Of the eight factories, four are new. The plants are located at Long island City,' Elizabeth, N. J., Flint, Mich., Lansing Mich., Leaslde, Canada, Muncle, Ind., and Oakland. Cal. The Flint plant is rapidly nearlng completion and tbe demand for Durant products Is so great In Canada that large additions are being mad? to the Leaslde plant . Records Are Shattered The past year's annals of the Du rant organization have startled the 1 automotive world with many achieve ments. The year 1921 was closed iwith the fitting celebration of shipping 1500 Durant fours across the continent, 'which was the largest single ship ment of any single commodity sent by rail from coast to coast. In Decem ber, 1921, only six mouths after active production liad started, Earle C. An thony operating five retail stores on jthe Pacfic, found It necessary to have shipment of 500 Durant fours to rage.t! his rush orders. I On December 31 a solid tralnload of 1 100 .freight cars one mile long, carry-] ing 500 Durant fours left Lons Island) I City for California. This was the I largest shipment over sent to a retail [dealer since the manufacture of motov, cars began. i During the early months of 1422. ? .plants at Oakland. Cal., Muncle, In.!.. I Lansing, Mich., and .Leaside, Cani'.t. ! were completed and completely equip ped, thereby assuring the Durant Mo tors, Inc., national distribution facili ties. ? Atlanta Constitution. Adv.
