reeeiitly gone to these islanilf in the

Commission anil w ho has taken up his
firai work in Portaif Spain, TriimiuI,
shy, in writiirg friunds in North Car
olina: "You v'ill be iter.ted lo

pecially British Guiana, are health re-,
sorts for babies and are so "used by the;
ptroplc a rom Eng'laud. It has cur. ainly
been true in our case, too, for the baby
has gv-n very much.'
This interesting aact thai there are
no flit-sin British West Indies starts
up a nunber of questions and curious
answers. Why is It they have no fiifs ?
Is it that they have Jost the seed ? Or
is it that they have tome active para
site or animal that feeds on flits, like
the South American Ant-eater, for in
stance? Certainly, it is not that they
have no filth. They have heat and
moisture, and if rumor has it true,
they have all the filth that is neces
sary. With these three conditions we
have more flies than we can manage,
and that they have more favorable
conditions without any flies is what
we do not understand.
We are not surprised to know, how
ever, to know, since there are no flies
there, that it is a health resort for ba
bies. England is fortunate in having
such a place, but babies will do well
at almost any place where there are
no flies, provided they are properly
fed and are kept clean.
Were Dr. Washburn to do nothing
more for international health . than
find out the cause for their freedom
from flies by which our fly problem
could be solved, he would have render
ed a blessing to mankind and his name
would deserve a place along with
Jenner's and Pasteur's.

School progress in Montgomery
county is being studied by Mr. B. B,
Holder at the State University. The
figures he has worked out dealing with
the growth in high school work from
1007-08 to 1SU1-12 are encouraging,
For the first year the average length
of Qe high. school year for the coun
tv was 0.1 weeks longer than was the
average for the state as a whole;
1011-12 it was 2.1 weeks longer. This
is due to the fact that thfi state in
crea?e had been large and alsj that
during the period a new high school
hail bcon es tablished in the county
with only a 32 weeks term.
Th-a enrollment in the high school
durirg the period has increased more
than twice as fast in Montgomery as
in thi- state. Of course some increase
is to be expected, but the amount in
this county is unusual.
Financially, tha relative amount of
support derived from local taxation
for thvHO schools has increased about
four times as last as the amount re
ceived from state funds. Montgomery
county is (long exactly right in sup
porting its own schools with its ow
hcal funds. University News Letter.

Adele Hugo, youngest daughter of
Victor Hugo, the famous author of
Les Miserables and other books, died
recently at her residence in a suburb
of Paris, aged 85 years.
The tragic life story of Adele Hugo
many years ago aroused the sympa
thy of the entire world. As a girl
she was kidnapped at Guernesey by
an English officer. All Europe was
searched by her parents, but they ob
tained no trace of her whereabouts.
Several months later a girl was
found wandering alone in the streets
of New York, apparently demented,
declari:-.g,"I am the daughter of Victor
Hugo." This was the only statement
she ever mada. She was sent back to
France to her parents, but her lips
remained sealed until the end and the
tragic story of her life never was re
vealed. She failed to eritire'v recover
her reason and after the death of her
father she lived a solitary existence
in her villa, seldom speaking. When
she did consent to speak it never was.

LESSONS
TAUGHT BY COR!
CLUBS
Some idea as to the valuable les
sons being taught by the corn clnh
work is seen in the case of Roby
Church in Wilkes county who won the;
fifth prize in the eighth district with-
a yield of 9J.2 bushels. This bov en
tered the club against his father's,
wishes and on this account was given
some of the poorest land on the farm
on which to grow his corn. The acre
used had been allowed to lay out sev
eral years on account of the puddled
and sour condition of the soil. Today,,
this boy is supplying his neighbors,
with seed corn and his father is an
enthusiastic advocate of modern com,
growing.
