Lifo in Belhaven must be awfully exciting and diverting. Howl the residents of that fair city can stand such strenuous work, as is mentioned below in a clipping from the Belhaven Journal, is more than we can understand. "We apprehend no contradiction when we state that Belhaven possesses a* many domino fiends and checker experts as are to be found within the hounds of North Carolina. The old as well as the young are devotees. A fellow has to be mighty busy just now to refuse to join the panic and when he does he usually spends the entire afternoon around the board." The Journal doesn't say, but we bet they also play croquet and tiddle-de-winks to I teat the hand in Belhaven. A timely suggestion chines from the Greensltotvi Daily News in the form of: "Quick. Lansing, another note!*' WORK OF TIIF CIVIC CI.T " B. The Civic Club lias some excellent suggestions to bring before the Board of Aldermen at tonight's meeting and it is hoped that the city officials will give the various projects careful and serioys con sideration. The flub deserves to be eneon raged in the work it i> doing. Tr ha.* Hen mp?i*ht d a number of useful works f>>r Washington and judging from its present, activity and the interest that is displayed by its members, it will not be idle in the future. OX THE OTHER LEG. President Wilson's plana for defend, if carried out. will un ^doubtedly result in tho United Stares. having the largest navy and army in tho world. Judging from the comment of the press from various parts of the country, many citizens arc in favor of Mr. Wil son's plan. They believe that tho President has the right view. Yet how different were rhe opinions expressed over tho building of Eng land's large navy and Germany's huge standing army! Tn connection with this, the Greensboro Xews gives a mo*t ap propriate illustration of the true state of affairs: "So the President has come out flat for the greatest navy In the world. That's logical. The war depart !rr,n* elrendv c. out for an army including every ;i1 \ \ i-\, ? 'v ?iip country, either on tb? active lisr io ? ' v.' : T we arc fo have an annv bigger than ~ ' v '?erjvtlv ought to match it with a navv 3> - r'ipji gJnnd's a a the President now advises. 40 n Crjrmany s'tempts to have the biggest army in the w-rld wore set down to militarism. Tn England attempts to have the biggest navy in the world were set dr.wn to navalism. But in America attempts to have both will of course be set. down to pure pacificism, because the world is so friend! v toward us. "Huh !" EDGECOMBE IX THE LEAD. The University Xews I.etter, in a cu?4fct issue, makes mention of the following progressive work doneTn Kngeconibe county : <4The other day Kdgecornbc county appropriate*! $1500 for a whole-time priuntv health -officer, $000 for a farm demonstrator, and $500 for homo demon stration work ; $^700 invested in a single day in pro gress and prosperity in a single county! "Edgecombe set* a pare for her sister counties in Xorth Carolina." He an fort county's appropriation for home demonstration work and a farm demonstrator are probably sufficient at the present time. What the county neodo, however, and what, would undoubtedly prove a paying investment, would be a whole-time health officer. The present, health officer is unable to devote his entire time to this work because the pay given him is not sufficient to warrant it. There is unlimited work that un official of this kind can do, work that will take up his entire time, week in and week rnrt.. Edgecombe has real ized the necessity of appropriating sufficient money to provide a man for this purpose. Tho money spent will never be regretted. All of the other counties in the State, especially those along the coast, could follow Edgecombe's example to advantage.

A red light twinkled |q oue bay window, and tones th the shade could be teen the rows or books lii a library. Near the curb opposite au extraordinarily silent limousine bad just drawn up, Vlth a little swish of its rubber tires as It came to rest, and presently a man and s woman in Joyous evening raiment came out of the house and got Into It. The woman wore a perfectly gor geous opera cloak, and comb's flashed In her beautifully arranged hair. The town's linen was very white and his silk hat very *" :iy. The chauffeur bad switched ou tile light lnfflde the car, and the occupants showed a moment brilliantly In tb? Jewel box of Its In terior before the light went out and the car moved off again, west and south, to the haunts of pleasure, as Ambrose Teale would have said. ? throb and a sob came Into Mary's voice as she saw It all, and she an swered again: "You might hate me. And I'm tak ing you away from all that, which was yours by right" "Come In a o.oment," said Rodney gently and kindly. They climbed the stairs together, and a West Indian "butler" let them In. Rodney drew Mary Into a hideous Uttle reception room on the ground floor, took both the girl's hands In his and J looked earnestly Into her lovely eyes. "You're the llnest girl In the world, Mary," be snld, "and nothing could ever turn me against you." , In the 111 lighted. Ill ventilated Uttir parlor, illuminated for thenj with love's thousand eyes, the truth came out Mary told the wbole story from the beginning, not without some humor snd not without nome satisfaction at certain portions of it. It must be con fessed; told of old Mr. Martin's fret ting about Eller.v Clark, of the bet with Ellery'n father, of her share In the deception aud of her reward In money. ? "What do I care If 'you really love me," protested Rodney. "Mary, now yon must marry me." That wa* a Thursday, and by Fri day night they were married, ao that they could have two days of honey moon, anyway, before Monday. Rod ney snld. It was all very quietly ar ranged in th?? little church. So mnrh for those who talk about telepathy. Late Saturday forenoon, when they sneaked down to tbe-offlce, Just to be sure that everything was all right, certainly no one guessed what momentous change had come Into their lives: no one divined the ecstasy that thrilled unseen l>enentb their everyday demeanor. Of course o!d Mr. Martin's obduracy had bcec a blow, but Rodney wai game throughout and gloriously happy. He felt every Inch a man now and dared to eopo with every difficulty. "Shall we tell the old gentleman?" he asked Mary, meaning of course the fact of their being married. "No, Indeed, not yet," said Mary, blushing ever so little. "Just let ros wait for the psychological moment" CHAPTER XIX. A W?ddinfl Present.

It seemed thai Just after they got to the office that morning n letter from Dockery's had come in. ? "Ordering 10,000 cake* of 13 Boap," Interrupted Rodney. "Now what do you think of that?" said Mary. "I'lnch me?I'm dreaming." Peale told her. "They si?y our advertising's wonder ful," went on Kodncy, "and has creat ed such a demand they want to handle the sonp In town." Rodney went on: "You see, when I show father this letter from Dockery he's got to admit we've won out? and supply ds with ?oap."
