The College Boys and Girls Here For The Holiday Season. The holiday brings to Lincoln ton and surrounding county noth ing that she values more, or should value more, than it's quota of boys and girls who are away from home attending col lege in various parts of this and other states. They have been missed from the life of the com munity, how much no one realizes until they began to come back. They come with the freshness of youth, of enthusiasm, of ambi tion and of purposes. Their hopefulness is refreshing to the busy business man, the man who has gone ajong in the rut of selfishness too often, not remem bering his neighbor, not thinking of aught but material things. And of course this does not differ from other communities in this respect. But we are glad to have them, to see them in all of their bright ness and freedom of care and re sponsibility. A few years will bring them to realize that many things that they look upon as easy of achievement are hard er to posess that they dreamed. But their untiring zeal is helpful, and we sincerely trust that the coming of the year may not suc ceed in wearing away their high purpose, but may every eood purpose they possess grow larg er, better and stronger all the while. We need our boys and girls. We need them to awaken us to higher things. And they need us. Not for what we have so much, and for what we may do for them. Dollars and cents cannot measure their, value, but we need to invest more of a material nature for the welfare of the youth of this town. The schools we have constructed, but that is in the nature of life in surance. We dare not let them grow up in ignorance, and furthermore that is but a duty known to all. Let us begin to understand that the boys and girls of today are the men and women of to morrow. Let us place a true valuation upon one greatest as- , set. But we started out to welcome our college boys and girls home and this we must do now, and in welcoming them with great pleasure, we also include those who could not go and did not go, for to themwe owe just as great a debt.

Mt Gilead, Dec. 21. -Burglars Seventy-Two Victims Total of Dead as the Result of i False Cry of Fire Hurled Children From Building. Calumet, Mich. Dec. 25. entered the postoffice here some While striking miners with their time Saturday night and stole $700 worth of stamps and $300 in cash. The burglary was dis covered early this morning when the office was opened, and was supposed to have been committed some time before midnight and 4 o'clock in the morning. So far there is absolutely no clue as to who the marauders were, but it is believen they are the same who have been enter ing other North Carolina offices the past few weeks. The job was neatly done and the only evidence discovered were not of a nature to lead to an identity of the parties. At frequent intervals yeggman have been visiting North Carolina towns in the past few months, first at Kernersville, then Char lotte, Gastonia and Terrell, and ! later at points in the eastern part of the state. It is believed they belong to a crowd of experts who have made a practice of the bus iness for a long time throughout the country. FEW FACTS ABOUT WHITE WYANDOTTES.

It is always a pleasure to write about the White Wyandottes; they are always ready to back up any statement made about them, they are the one breed that has made steady progress without unnatural booms. When I start ed breeding them five years ago they were one of the largest classes in all our large shows. Today they are the largest class in nearly every important show in America. Why are they so popular Why have they more than held their own against the breeds that have been boosted? The first reason for their popular ity, is their great laying qualities. No breed in existence will lay more eggs in a year, or more in winter, than the White Wyandottes. The second reason is their grand table qualities. - A well bred Wyandotte is always plump and ready for market af ter it is eight weeks old. They are the best breed for broilers and grow as quick as any breed in the standard. I have seen cockerels weighing seven pounds at five months old. The third reason is their beauty. This is probably the reason for a great many starting to breed them, What is more beautiful than wives and little ones were ar ranging for a Christmas tree in a hall at Calumet, Mich., tonight, the door was opened by a person who gave a false alarm of fire. In their effort to get out of the ' hall 72 people lost their lives. HOW THEY PERISHED. Members of the Calumet fire department relate many instances of heroic attempts to rescue the panic stricken people in the hall. Patrick Ryan arrived on the scene a few minutes after the crush occurred at the foot of the stairway. He estimated there were about 100 piled in a heap when he reached the building. The pile of crushed and smoth ering humanity reached to about half the height of the stairway. They were wedged in so tight that it was impossible to extri cate any from the foot of the stairway. A boy of about 6 caught hold of Mr. Ryan's hand and begged to be rescued. The firemen succeeded in pulling the boy partly from the crush, but were unable to extricate the lit tle fellow's legs. The human mass kept pressing down and the boy's life was soon snuffed out. A girl of 8 or 9 grasped the hands of Angelo Curto, a fire man, kissed them and implored him to save her. He made a heroic effort to pull her out but the cruih was so great he was . compelled to give up the attempt and she perished. Mrs. A. Niemela, one of the victims, was suffocated while standing up. John Burrill, a fireman, who witnessed her death, took a six months old in fant from her arms and carried it to safety. Leonard Wilson, a rifleman pushed his way into the stair way and took out a crying boy of 6, uninjured. Near him his mother and sister lay dead. An 11 year old boy rescued his brother of 9 by carrying him down a ladder. HURLED CHILDREN FROM BUILDING. 343 State vs Newton, W A Nixon,' lard, bond J B Bumgamer 1st a flock of snow white birds of the true Wyandotte shape. The close fitting rose comb also adds greatly to their beauty; then again, the yellow legs and bright red combs and faces make a fine contrast to the white plumage and help to show it off to best advantage. Fourth reason, as an all around foul they have no equal, i When all things are taken into consideration as a utility fowl, theyank with the very best of them, and there is no breed or variety that can come nearer to the standard requirements; in this I except none. The begin ner can make no mistake when he selects a good strain of White Wyandottes for they are a breed that will make a poultryman out of anyone. They will certainly do their share towards filling the egg baskst if only given half a chance. In the two egg laying contests just closed, White Wy andottes come out with flying colors, and in the English con tests they have made wonderful records in a recent contest re ported by the London Times, A child hurled from the build ing was caught ... by a . spectator. Chief Trudell, of the fire depart ment caught another child thrown out of a window by a frantic father. John Saari kill ed his boy of 5 by falling on him " and he too perished. The authorities have so far ' been unable to trace the man who is said to have gone up the stairs of the Italian' hall and raised the cry of fire. Death of Miss Baker. : Following an illness of several weeks Miss Minnie Leor Baker died at 2 o'clock Tuesday after noon at the home of her mother, Mrs. Margaret Baker, on Ozark street aged 30 years. There mains were taken Wednesday , morning to Pisgah Methodist church, near Lincolnton, where the funeral and burial took place. The deceased is survived by her mother, two sisters, Mrs. Charles Long, of this city, and Mrs. Lee, of Lenoir, and two brothers, Messrs. Frank and Clarence Ba ker. She had been for a num ber of years a faithful and active member of Ozark Methodist church, and was a young woman of exemplary Christian character. The bereaved family have the sympathy of a large number of friends in their sorrow. Gas tonia Gazette.
