Livingstone Johnson, at pres ent corresponding secretary of the State mission board of the Baptist denomination, has been called as pas tor of the First Baptist church at Rocky Mount. The vital statistics report of the city of Greensboro for the month of August shows that the birth rate for the negroes is larger than for the whites. This is unusual since the ra tio of population in Greensboro is 3 o 2 in favor of the whites. Since the accidental death of Mrs. E. P. Wharton at Greensboro the peo ple of Asheboro street have decided to stop the reckless driving of auto mobiles. They propose to report to police headquarters all automobile drivers who are seen to be driving in a reckless manner or facter than the traffic ordaniances of the city allow. Yadkin county has the distiction of having seven ex-sehriffs living at this time with the prospect of an eight at the expiration of the term of Sher iff C. W. Poindexter.

The Allan Line steamer, Hesperian, with 350 passengers, bound from Liv erpool for Montreal, was attacked without warning by a German subma rine off the Irish coast at dusk Satur-. day evening. Although the torpedo reached its ma'k the vessel remained afloat and every soul aboard was sav ed. The liner carried a 4.7 inch mount ed rifle. Two members of the crew were Americans. Most of the passen gera and the rest of the crew were English and Canadians. Battle between 80 United States cavalrymen, aided by Texas rangers, and armed citizens, was waged prac tically all day Saturday across the Rio Grande, near Hidalgo, Texas. There are at leant ten known Mexicans dead, and probably as many more have been killed. One American trooper was injured. All American troops at Fort Brown and adjacent points have been ordered under arms. An organized invasion of the Texas border is feared. Harnett's new farm life school will open at Lillington on the 15th of this month. The school building and the dormitory is nearing completion. The laboratories will be equipped for ex periments in agricultural science, do mestic science, physics and chemistry, The dormitory is so constructed as to accommodate both boys and girls, the girls occupying one part of the build ing and the boys the other. Plant will cost about $32,000. Prof. Frank Hare, the superintendent, will be as sisted by a full corps of teachers. We understand that at 10 cents per can the Girls' Canning Clubs of Lee county have reported more than $1,000 worth of fruit and vegetables put up this season. It is thought that when the season is over and all reports are in that the grand total will show more than $2,000 worth of canned goods. Black River township, Harnett coun ty, recently voted a bond issue of $25, 000 for good roads. This makes five tewnships in that county that have is sued bonds for improved highways. We understand that the question of road bonds is now being agitated in Buckhorn and one or two other town ships. It looks a3 if Harnett will solve the road problem by townships. Some good roads have been built in that county at $500 per mile. Alamance county has adopted a nov el plan of health work proposed by the State Board of Helth. They pro pose to have a health inspection of all their schools and School children and a health day for the entire school dis- trict. This contract has been made with the State Board of Health and is to begin November first. Briefly, the plan is to have a competent inspector make a thorough physical examina tion, especially of the eyes, ears, teeth and throats of all the children, where there is a possibility of a physical defect and endeavor to have it rem edied. There will also be an inspec tion of the school grounds and house, the lighting, the ventilation, the wa ter, the sewage disposal, etc., follow ed by a health program of speakings in the afternoon and an illustrated health lecture with lantern slides for the public in the evening. HEALTH HELPS FOR TEACHERS How The State Board of Health can Co-operate With the Teachers of The State. Teachers from all over the State are continuously writing the State Board of Health asking how, and to what extent, can the Board help them in their work. To answer this ques tion briefly is the object of this ar ticle. 1. Every teacher in the State should receive the Monthly Health Bulletin. If those who do not already receive it will send in their names and dresses they will be placed on the mailing list, free of charge. Some county superintendents of schools send a complete list of the names of their teachers to the State Board of Health every year for this purpose. 2. This Board will furnish to teach ers or superintendents free, upon re quest, copies of all special bulletins or leaflets on various health subjects either singly for their personal use or in quantities for distribution in their schools. The Board has now a number of four-page leaflets, writ ten in a popular style, on the follow ing subjects. Tuberculosis, Typhoid Fever, Flies, Privies, Care and Feed ing of Babies and Cancer. Other sim ilar leaflets will appear from time to time. Such material is suitable for supplementary reading. 3. A 16-page illustrated bulletin on mosquitoes and malaria, especially prepared for school use will be found of considerable value in the eastern and piedmont sections of our State. 4. The Board will furnish also large illustrated placards in two colors, 14 inches by 22 inches, on Tuberculosis, Typhoid, and Flies. These are suita ble for posting in public places. 5. For schools, churches, clubs, mov ing picture theaters, he-.vlth officers, physicians, and others desiring illus trated health lectures, sets of stereo optican lantern slides and lecturers may be borrowed from this Board These slides have been carefully chos en and arranged in sets of from 50 to 70 slides each, together with a writ ten lecture which may be used as a guide, or outline, in part or in its en tirety. Such sets of slides and corre sponding lecture3 have been prepared on the following subjects: Tubercu losis, Typhoid Fever, Flies, Effect of Alcohol on the Body, Patent Medi cines, Health and Sanitation, Preven tion of Blindness, and Eyes, Ears, Nose and Throat. Others will prob ably be added from time to time, 6 For those who desire to use some of the above sets of slides and Tex tures, but who do not have a stere optican lantern available, this Board will loan a small acetylene gas lant ern, which may be used in connection with a gas tank from an automobile. These lanterns, packed for shipment by parcel post, weigh about 20 pounds. An initial charge of 50 cents, plus 25 cents a week for the second and sub sequent weeks is made to pay in part for the postage, packing and wear and tear on these lanterns. Directions for setting up and operating these lanterns accompany them. The oper ation of the lantern ia very simple, and no one should have any difficulty in setting it up or operating it, even though he has never operated such a lantern before or even though no di rections were furnished. f"t. 7. The Board has also a number of parcel post exhibits on Typhoid Fever which will be loaned to teachers free of charge. These exhibits consist of 24 charts hinged together, in sets of three. Whenever available these ex hibits will be loaned to individual teachers for a period of not over three days but, preference will always be given county and city superintendents of schools who will arrange to have these exhibits sent from one school to another in regular order, so that the greatest possible number of scholars may be served with a minimum loss of time and money. In this manner the only expense to each school will be from 16 to 26 cents for postage. 8. A limited number of sets of printed and illustrated cloth charts on the subject of the house fly will be loaned to any teacher, superintendent, physician, health officers or other persons who will agree to show them or give at le;st one lecture from them. These charts are 63 inches wide by 70 inches high, and come in sets of 14, mounted on a bar which in turn is supported on an iron tripod. Ac companying the chart is a pointer and a printed lecture. The whole comes securely packed in a canvas case and weighs about 34 pound. These charts have met with considerable favor wherever they have been used ns they require no lantern uml ca.i be use welt or better in day time than nt night. In some pbces they i.ro used nt open-air meo.ins. f.

Evans tells the people of the South what cause that lazy, heavy feeling which they lall "bil iousness, "torpid liver" or "touch of malaria," and for it offers one or more safe remedies. He says: "The Southern people eat too much of starches and sugars. For instance, at breakfast they will have biscuits, waffles, and spoon bread. They eat two or three starchy foods at each meal. If they will eat less food, especially less slraches and sweets, if they will eat more fruit ar.d more of the coarser articles of diet, and if they will exercise more, they will get bilious less often. "When they get bilious and a pur gative is needed, a dose of salts or a glass of purgative water is about all that is needed. Calomel is not a direct liver stimulant. Indirectly, it stimu lates the liver by stimulating the in testines. "In nine cases cut of ten, bilious ness is relieved better, all things con sidered, by a medicine which acts solely or practically so in the large intestine. If that part of the intes tine is rid of its poison, the liver can take care of what has already been absorbed. "As to taking quinine for those constipated effects called biliousness, for those vague ill feelings commonly referred to as a touch of malarie, quinine is of no service. Such symptoms disappear after a course of quinine and calomel, you say. Surely. They would disappear after a course of calomel alone, or after a dose of castor oil, or after a cold morning bath, some exercise and a light diet, or they would dis appear stpontaneously without any medicine, maybe."
