State. Raleigh, July 9.—Checks aggregat a total of $2,100,000 went out to the thirty-odd thousand members of the ! North Carolina Cotton Growers Co- j Operative Association the past week, according to General Manager U. B. ! Blalock. | This was a fourth distribution on ! the 135,000 bales of cotton received during the past season ancl brought up to 22c. per pound, basis middling, Mr. Blalock states. Approximately j $15,000,000 has now been paid out to the members. Practically all of the short staple cotton has been sold, though there is quite a quantity of it yet to be de- i livered during the months of July and August. Every effort is being put forth by the Association to make a final set tlement with its members before the new 7 crop comes in. It is very likely, however, that they will be unable to j make a final settlement on staple cot- ! ton at the same time that the final j distribution is made on the short j staple. The managers of the Ra- j leigh office' do not think it wise to force their stock of staple cotton on the present low market and do not believe they would be serving the best interests of the members who have staple cotton in the Association. It is very likely that a fifth advance will be made to the members before the final distribution checks are mail ed. On July 4th a South-wide campaign for new members was launched in the twelve cotton growing States compos r g the American Cotton Growers Ex change. “Every Member Get a Mem ber” is the slogan adopted for the membership campaign which started the past week and will continue thru out the summer. This drive will be conducted largely by the members of the association. The entire member ship is now beginning to realize that cotton sold on the outside of the as sociation is in direct competition with cooperative marketing. MUST WEAR CORSETS. Muskogee, 01:1 a., July B.—Girls em ployed at the Soldiers’ Hospital here must go back to corsets, quit Jobbing their hair, roll up their ho£e and adopt high neck dresses according to the ultimatum laid down by Miss Alice Robertson, former Congresswoman, now welfare chief at the institution. “There has been to much laughing and talking down the halls wHh the patients,” Miss Alice said. “Give the boys a run for their money; the girl a man admires, most is one whom he fight for. “The woman who flagrantly dis plays her charms soon will be a back number. They are only toys with which men play and then cast aside. “Look up your diamonds when you are on duty. A display of wealth by a SIOO month clerk will soon lead to comment by the public. I have been constantly in the association of men and have never once heard an insult ing remark in my presence. I never gave any one the occasion. “Go back to corsets, girls, tend to business, wear decent clothes and do not try to hark back to the days of Adam and Eve.” WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA “The Land of the Sky.” MICHIGAN WISCONSIN MINNESOTA COLORADO UTAH CALIFORNIA CANADA NEW ENGLAND AND SEASHORE RESORTS GREATLY REDUCED SUMMER FARES Now in Effect via SOUTHERN RAILWAY SYS TEM From Jacksonville SEND FOR FREE BOOKLET Convenient Schedules Attractive Service Inquire * W.

Charles Young, the only negro ever to rise to colonel’s rank in the United I States Army, was buHed at Arlington j Amphitheater, May 21. Colonel Young j was graduated from West Point in j 1889. He served in the Philippines, j in Indian campaigns and as military attache in Haiti and Liberia. A concrete tower 600 feet high is to be erected at Wembley, near Lon don, England, to give visitors a view of the surrounding country. A search light powerful enought to he seen from the coast of France will be in stalled in the tower. A cage will make the trip to the top of the tow er spirally. Above the lowlands of Guatemala there are rich table-lands rising as high as 6,000 feet, with a delightful climate. Here are grown several crops, such as sugar, coffee maize and rice, as well as various varieties of fruits. Above this 6,000-feet level are the cold lands where wheat, potatoes and other temperate climate plants thrive. A jail, a chapel and a morgue will be included in the Chicago Union Sta tion now under construction. The jail will be used for holding prisoners passing through Chicago and will eli i minate the necessity of prisoners be i ing handcuffed to officers while wait ing for trains. The chapel will be complete and will be equipped for fun eral services. Thousands of foreigners are wait ing on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande to be smuggled into the Unit ed States, according to immigration inspectors of Federal District No. 22. Organized bands of smugglers put the foreigners over the line for ten pesos ($5) a person. The inspector station ed at Laredo estimates that 300 for eigners at Nuevo Laredo are awaiting transportation, across the border. “Unless sensible men come to the rescue, we shall have a government of laws, with a statute governing our every action,” says Bruce A. Camp bell, president of the Illinois Bar As sociation. “Paternalism has become the order of the day. Good law is good sense, and good sence is to be de termined by the deliberate judgment of the generality of the people.” Fossil remains of a dinosaur found near Ehrlien, Mongolia, by American explorers, prove that the animal was carnivorous. Evidence of this is in dicated by the teeth and the structure of the skeleton. The creature stood on legs ten feet high and its body was about 90 feet long. It weighed al most 90,000 pounds and is regarded as intermediate between a lizard and a bird and of the same common stock as the present-day alligator.
