Tape as to the construction the Gov ernor places on the section of the charter of the Elkin & Allegheny Railroad, making the approval of the Governor a prerequisite to the assign ment of convicts to this road. Mr. Page contended that the act intended that the Governor should approve on ly when stock taken in exchange for convict labor was worth its face val ue rn money. The reply is lengthy.

M"i"!--55"K2 THE OLD TIME There is no time like the old time, When you and I were young, When the buds of April blossomed, And the birds of springtime sung. The garden's brightest glories By summer suns are nursed, But, oh, the sweet violets, The flowers that opened first ! There is no place like the old place, Where you and I were born, Where we lifted first our eyelids, On the splendor of the morn, From the milk-white breast that warned us, From the clinging arms that bore, Where the dear eyes glistened o'er us That will look for us no more ! i ' .; ., There is no friend like the oldjfriend, That has shared our morning days, No greeting like his welcome,, No homage like his praise; Fame is the scentless sunflower, With gaudy crown of gold; But friendship is the breathing rose, With sweets in every fold. Oliver Wendell Holmes. ' I' t ) 1 l l . . .. . i l , ,, , NORTH CAROLINA YOUTHFUL Increases Her Population Over Forty Thousand during l'ill North Carolina will have . little room for Lelgiuns if the present rule of increase of births over deaths keeps up. In 1914 there were 71,!KS1 births registered in North Carolina, while the total number of deaths reg istered during the year was only Hl, 481, which shows an increase to the population of over 40,000. These re ports are the findings of the Vita! Statistics Department of the State 45oard of Health and are as near cor rect as the Vital Statistics Law can make them. The counties leading in births are: Wake, 2186; Guilford, 2158; 'Meck lenburg, 20:56; Johnston, 1659; For syth, 16:J3, and Gaston 1428. The counties leading in the number of deaths are: Wake, 1291; Mecklen burg, 1226; Guilford, 1126; and For syth 1019. The counties leading in marriages are: Wake, 807; Guilford, 802; Mecklenburg, 797; Forsyth, 772; and Buncombe 653. As it appears, Wake county leads not only in the number of births and marriages, but also in the number of death, though her death rate is 20.4, which is the fourth highest in the State. New Hanover county has the highest, 28.3 per thousand, while Forsyth has the next of 21.5 and Pasquotank 20.7. While at first thought these death rates may appear rather high, closer examination of the returns indicate that these rates are due largely to two causes: first, the higher death rate among the negroes, and, second, to excellent registration in these counties. Another significant fact revealed by the figures compiled by the Vital Statistics Department is that the white death rate is 11.5 per 1000 pop ulation while the colored detth rate is 16.6 per 1000. On the other hand the white birth rate is 36.2 per 1000 and the colored rate is only 25.0 per 1000. HELPS FOR HOME-MAKERS remote sections.

The Cheaper Cnti of Meat The cheaper cuts front th neck, lower shoulders, lower round, flank, and chuck ribs have nutritive value, but lack in texture and sometimes in flavor. The value of meat as a food de pends, chiefly, on two classes of nu trients: (1) proteins, or those foods which build tissue and replace waste; and (2) fat, one of the great heat pro ducing foods. Hoth the proteins and fats produce energy, but the proteins are too expensive to feed for energy hence the necessity for a mixed diet.

Archie was an averaee Amerieas boy. He went to school, enjoyed the tops, kites, marbles, balls and othei things that other boys like. In vaca tion days he worked when lie couhi find "a job-' to help his wiowee' mother. When he was in the second year ei' the high school he became ill. Several physicians having failed to find out just what was the matter witk hint, an interested friend took hiaa to see a celebrated physician. This physiciae made the startling discovery that Archie had leprosy, the sioet leath omel the most hopeless ef ail Uw eases." The laws of the state ia watch he lived were very rigid regaxdiac lepro sy, and so, without a good-aye to his devoted mother and te kia Mends, Archie was rushed .off to a piaee call ed "Leprosarium", srovUed ef to state for such cases. Here fee wil have to live the rest of his life, shut out from family and friends aad tb big throbbing world ia whick he is se much interested. It was doubtless vorjr lonely indeed for Archie, especially yj first, and he watched the big ships go by and longed to have somebody te talk to. A f ew months after Archie was sc-nt to this desol.ite place a friend from "The Mission to Lepers" went to him. After they had t:tlkei a while the li'.tle fellow ?aio: "Th hardest of all is not to be able to 1 m.-iv havt leu'lv' he t a-d I.,- eiial t I U t ) t innr moi,i e fattifji h 1 i 1. irttvi'S iiOH d u-!l them : hoin". 1 fvness .aiit tiieni to lepers', nut 1 botil nil W"u:M ' - e c t 'ipc-cvorcd that iit-'iry confine- r went lu eve it r: 1 is ( t i"' theiijt I r.inal of state-Vide dot: lax 1hr-:"::h : :...usf with 'Mi counties objecting.
