HEARING ELIX110N CONTEST Xixl Monday :"t b' T Guthrie, for the hearing ami UikiuK of eviekiv.e in the Randolph t-Uvtion contest ca.;e. The Republicans contesting for three uf the oflkes will introduce their evidence first and after they have closed tlie Democratic respond ents will have their inning. In a large county like Randolph, the largest of the thirteen counties comprising this Congressional district, there are always some illegal voters at each election, and there were some at the last election and will be again. It is difficult to avoid it. Some few of these voters no doubt voted know . ingly in violation of law while others may have voted without knowledge of the fact that they were illegal voters. It is to be hoped that in the course of the investigation that some way will be found to uncover the use of money by those who are said to have attempted to debauch the voters in certain parts of the county. There should be a vigorous investigation of these conditions and if the evidence secured is sufficient to convict, the of fenders should be prosecuted together with the ruffians who broke up an otherwise orderly conducted election in Richland precinct, and those who attempted to stir up disorder in Back Creek and New Market. LAST WORD OF THE "GRAND OLD MAN" Ex-Governor Jarvis, who died re cently at a ripe old age was justly termed the "Grand Old Man" of North Carolina. His will has just been made public and aside from tender refer ences to his lifetime companion, the HOW LONG WILL WAR LAST? N'o oik' knows. This is a question that has been the subject of much speculation, and the various causes that tend to jiroiong or shorten this teriilic coe.te?t have Ken considered from every point of view. An edito rial in the special v.T.r issue of the Scientific American raises a new and very practical question by discussing; the endurance of the machinery used in war, lather than that of the men engaged. The article says in part: This is very largely a machine made war, and it would be a curious and not altogether illogical denounce ment of the great struggle if its end should be hastened through the fa tigue of the machine rather than the exhaustion of the man, This war is being fought with the gun and the motorcar;" and so stren uous and uninterrupted has been the struggle that these have been put to a test of endurance the like of which has never been witnessed in the his tory of artillery or the briefer but very strenuous history of the gasoline car. The life of the gun, so far as its absolute destruction by bursting is concerned, is practically unlimited; but not so its accuracy-life. Every time a gun is fired some of the in terior surface of its bore and delicate rifling is wiped away, and a certain degree of its accuracy is lost. The big guns which form the main batter ies of our warships and are emplaced in our coast fortifications can lire from 150 to 250 rounds (dependent upon the pressure and heat in the powder chamber) before they begin to lese their accuracy. The motor car is a highly develop ed machine, which calls for careful upkeep to maintain it in full efficien cy. In ordinary commercial service the motor car and the automobile receive, as a rule, considerable care and watchful maintenance. In the present war, however, the treatment of these vehicles, must, in the nature of things, be absolutely brutal, and HEALTH NOTES the depreciation must be very rapid.

Ravs: wife of his bosom, he speaks as from I. t- nprpss ' ' "'eS of typho the tomb, a last word to the people of , North Carolina in advocacy of a cause . which was dear to his heart the edu- The anti-typhoid campaign is on in earnest in Northampton county. There ara two dispensaries, one for while people ami one for the colored. The lirst day the dispensaries opened, M0 men, women and children applied i for the treatment. In Wake county 5!2 people applied for the first dose. At Raleigh near: , ."id people ; uplied before the dispensa ry doors ceulil be opened, and some twenty more were turned away after . the dispensary was closed lor the day.; The first two persons who applied for the treatment were doctors, and dur ing the day 16 doctors applied. Henderson county reported a total of 278 treatments given the first day, while Cumberland and Buncombe are yet to be heard from. The U. S. Fublic Health Service estimates that between ten and fifteen thousand consumptives go West every year in search of health, and that from 30 to 50 per cent, of these are hopeless cases and die within six months after arrival. A large per centage die in almshouses or are the. recipients of charity, and the greater number could have been made com fortable in their last days if they had stayed at home. Tuberculosis can be cured in any part of the United States, and it is far better for a con sumptive of moderate means to go to a sanitorium near at home, than to go West and live perhaps in a slight ly more favorable climate without proper food and medical care. Dr. W. S. Rankin, Secretary of the State Board of Health, in comment ing on the result of the first two days of the anti-typhoid campaign in the State, said: "I consider it one of the best single pieces of health work ever undertaken in the State. As much as it means to the State this year in reducing typhoid, it will mean infinitely more in years to come. Aft er this," he continued. "It will not be hard to get counties to fight typhoid j or any other disease that so vitally concerns them."

ENGLISH IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS Row, Peterson & Co., have offered two gold pins as prizes to be awarded to the two public school pupils in Union county, who show the highest proficiency in English grammar and composition, the prizes to be given tit the close of the ensuing school year. R. N. Nisbet, county superintendent of schools in Union, in commenting on this says: "It is generally conceded that Eng lish as a cultural study is unexcelled. It has at once disciplinary and cul tural values which mike it a most ef fective instrument in the development f youth. It introduces the pupil to large capacity for storing nitrogen. It takes up moisture and plant food from the soil during the late sum mer to the extent of checking the growth of the tree. This causes the wood to ripen, which enables the tree to pass safely through the winter. A crop of crimson clover and a crop of corn may be grown in the time requir ed to grow a single crop of red clover. Following are some of the advanta ges of crimson clover, as summarized by Frank Tagart, in the Charlotte Observer: 1st. The feeding value is better! than the best cow peas or red clover hay. 2nd. It makes an excellent pasture, allowing the more permanent grasses to get well started before stock is turned on. 8rd. ' Crimson clover more than any utes, two or three times in twenty four hours.

J., out of every thou sand born during the same period. Much credit for this low rate of in fant mortality in the latter city is given the Montclair Day Nursery, which prescribes the following decade of baby health rules: 1. Give a baby pure milk and watch its feeding very closely. 2. Keep everything connected with a baby absolutely clean. Cleanliness in the house acounts for - a baby's health. Untidy babies are usually sick babies. 3. Never let a baby' get chilled. Keep its hands and feet warm. 4. Regulate a baby's day by the clock. Everything about its wants should be attended to at schedule time. 5. Diminish a baby's food the minute signs of illness appear. Most babies are overfed anyway. 6. Weigh, a baby every week until it is a year old. Its weight Is as in dex to its health. 7. Every mother should get daily outdoor exercise. It means better health for her babies. 8. Every baby should be "mother ed" more and mauled less. Babies thrive on cuddling but they can get along on a lot less kissing. 0. Don't amuse or play with your baby to much. Its . regular daily rou tine is all the stimulation its little brain needs at first. 10. Don't let too many different people take care of the baby. Even members of the same family make a baby nervous if they fuss around him too much. Children Ory FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA
