Mr. Long leaves a wife and four children. What Profit in Such A Choice? Senator Lodge, in support of his sub stitute “war” resolution: “But we must not, to remove Huerta, put our selves behind Villa, who began litc as a hired assassin, and whose pathway has been marked with bloodshed, rapine, plunder and by unnamable crimes." Said the Associated Press, in telling of the meeting between George C. Ca- rothers, special agent of the State De partment, and Villa, at Juarez: “Why,’ he smiled, as he threw an arm about the broad shoulders of the government represents^ive * ♦ * ‘Honest,’ said the rebel general, between mouthfuls.*’ War must be accompanied by d»;eds of valor and Leroiam. Much must be i sacrificed upon the alter of country. It may have been a high, patriotic service that Mr. Bryan’s envoy to Villa per formed upon the occasion of this Juarez lunch. Our opinion has been, however, that the United States has lit tie to gain, and probably much to lose, by the continued attempt to make choice amon,^st spoilt fish. If the deposi tion or decapitation of Huerta ia to mean the exaltation of Villa, then what’s the use? What will it profit the people either of this country, or of Mexico, to pick and choose between the man-killers? Surely Mr. Carothers has misconce ived the nature of his mission, if he is under the impression that Washington wishes to make of Villa a guide, councillor ana friend. Besides, the matter of taste should find some place, even in war. Most American citizens would infinitely prefer, we think, to be shot at now and then by the snif ers of j Huerta, if the alternative must be found in beinj fondled and caressed by ihe colored VUla person. —Greensboro News. To Mexico City, President- Mr. Flower Show The Mebane Civic Association beg to announce tbeir intention oi having a Flower Show i.i the fall of this year, principally crysanthamums and dallias.

As stated in last .week’s Leader the town is divided into seven (7) sections with super vising committees over them. There will be seven (7) first prizes of 50c each, one to a sec tion, seven second prizes of 25c each, one to a section, and to the owners of the three best gardens or plots in each section Including the prize winners, the association will entertain at an ice cream supper to be arrang ed by some of the housekeepers. any Florist. The detailed plans for show are not completed as yet, but soon will be, and other articles will appear in the Leader at an early date. For any inform»tion see Mrs. W. A.

Big Engines; Long Trains (From The Littleton News Reporter.) One of the Seaboard’s 800 series of locomotives passed here a few days ago with 85 freight cars coupled to it. During the night we are informed one of its 900 series passed carrying an even 100 cars, the equal of five freight trains of 25 years ago. Behind the President The masses of the American people are standing squarely behind President Wilson in his determination to punish the Huerta s'overnment for the i^isult heaped upon the St. rs and Stripes and hence upon the Ame rican people. If it weie necessary a million mei. would rally to the call of the President to go to Mexico and defend the flag But we are not looking for anything half so serious as that More than likely no larger force will be needed lhan is already en route to Mexican waters. We imagine that lio very large force will be needed to effect quick seizure of Tampico and Vera Cruz,: na 'djacent territory and to establish h/. ci. 'ctive “We are dealing with facts,” said President Wilson in his admirable reply to Carranza. Such being the case, let us deal with all the facts, including those which the Administration is disposed to ignore. One of these facts is that we are actually at v/ar in Mexico. War is a condition, not a definition, and no juggling of words can change the record that has been written in blood and iron at Vera Cruz. The President reminds Carranza that we are dealing with Huerta in the territory he now controls. The City of Mexico is the capital and centre of that territory, ihe best way to deal with Huertci is to supplant his authority with the authority ot iMajor-Gen. Leonard Wood. The sooner Gen Wood is in the City of Mexico, where he can begin the administrative work of sub stituting government for anarchy throuj^hout a distracted country, the better it will be for most of the people of JMexico and lor all the people of the United States. VVe s’lall gain nothing by delay, but we may lose much by temporizing. The inevitable is one of the things that must iilwjys be accepted. Whether we are to have a long war or a short war rr .^y h'nge wholly on the quickness and decisiveness with which the Ad- minist i aiioii acts. It is apparent that Huerta has no iiitention of retiring without a fight. He is now lestii'f^ his case on the hope ui;it oil faciioi’s ean be united against the “"ortigii invader.” Carranza’s note proves that such hope is not altogether m-splaccd. The Administration aJmits it by restoring the embargo on arms. One thing is certain—the minds of the foliov/ers of Carranza, Vdlaand Zapata are as likely to be impressed by instanta neous action 0(1 our parB as by diplo matic l .esitation while our army marks time.

Within the past week one of the lar gest mail order houses of the country shipped to Raleigh three car loads of its spring and summer catalogues. These are being mailed out to points in all parts of the Raleigh parcel post zone that includes postoffices in this State and portions of Virginia and South Carolina. The mail order house sent a check for $2,800 to the Raleigh postoffice to pay the postage, 8 cents Ibeing required for each catalogue mailed. The freight shipment to Raleigh is to save postage, as it amounts to less than half what it would have been if the parcel post mailing had beer done m the home city of the mail order house.—Reids ville Review.

M,, Mebane, N. C. IN DEPIIIS OF EARTH Deepest Hole in the World Now 6,500 Feet, is Adding to General Scientific Knowledge. Scientists have asserted of late that the earth’s interior is not a molten mass, but rather is a solid substance with greater rigidity than steel. Practical experience with the deepest hole into the interior of the earth known to be in existence smiles and declares that a drill proves an entirely different conclusion On the one side, advancing the claim of theoretical science, are the detailed experiences of Prof. Albert A. Michelson, near the Yerkes Ob- servatorr at Lake Geneva, Wis. He declares that his test is proof con- clasive that the interior of the earth is rigid, and yet of gret.t elasticity. On the side of practical knowledge is to be Had the experience of the drillers of the famous deep well near Oakdale, this county, belonging to the People’s Gas Company, which has now reached a depth of nearly 6,500 feet. The men in charge of the drilling smile at Prof. Michelsoo’s claim. Not only do they say that their drilling operations prove the contrary, but each day brings some new evidence to prove the fallacy of science. Long since the immense drill, which is boring into the bowels of the earth, was attached to a steel cable, as a rope continually burned off. Even though specially constructed hard steel diills costing thousands of dol lars have been made, they will only hold their point for a few minutes, the heat being so intense that they soften rapidly. Different kinds of mineral formations brought up by the big drill also weaken Prof. Michelson’s claim. In short, the drillers of the deep well smile and say they can prove the interior of the earth is hot—vand mighty hot too. Health Notes For /Vlebane. Arc you sleeping with the windows open wide.

Why was Rome the cleaniest city in the world, because every man swpet before his own door. Now if every one in Mebane will sweep before his own door, we will have a clean town. n e Fly An Advance Agent of Summer Sicki e s. The Mebane Civic Association would like to have Mebane fly less town and it is their purpose to keep the subject before the public, especially for the next month as this is the time to begin to fight the fly. Always remember where there is no filth there are no flies. (By Woods Hutchinson, A. M., M. D.) “No longer can we dismiss the fly with a contemptuous “Shoo;” He is an influence to be reconed with. Black as he is painted, we must concede him certain virtues. From a worldly point of view, he is a hustler “from way back”; perpetually on the job, and always dehyers the goods He distributes samples of pestilence with a lavish hand, and the goods always match the samples whether you have ordered them or not, and are marked D. O. D.^Death on Delivery. We may admire the fly for his industry, pertinacity and business enterprise. We may even love him— lukewarnily —as one of God’s creatures, but we had better wipe him gently but firmly out of existence, just the same. Flies, like Artemus Ward’s Injuns, “is prizen wherever found.” He is tJie best traveling salesman known to humanity; carries a grip on each of his six legs and a trank on nis head. His line of samples is the most ''xtensive and longest known, and will last you, not merely from this year to next, but from time to eternity. A fly in the house is as dangerous as a rattlesnake, as filthy as a louse, and as disgraceful as a bedbug. The time will come when any modern, cleanly home will feel itself shamed and disgraced by the presence of a fly, and when every householder upon whose premises a brood of flies is detected will be heavily fined or sent to jaiL First Strawberries The Wilmington Dispatch of Satur day announces the formal opening ol the strawberry aeason in eastern North Carolina, and it yum yums as if all the first crop is not whirled right through Wilmington to the Northern markets, the first berriee being con sidered too rich for home blood. Un til the Northern markets are supplied, the home towns scarcely get enough for short cake purposes, to say noth ing of a supply calling for cream and sugar. All because we loye money more than we do the tickling of the berry palate, for the South is abundan tly able to meet the berry tariff if it wanted to. Commercialism is the ruling spirit in the strawberry district. —Charlotte Observer. The Orchard Industry. Mount Airy News.

It is objected by some of President Wilson’s critics, friendlp and others as well, that he committed an initial er ror in not recognizing Huerta as the de tacto ruler of Mexico from the out set, ir which case the right ot the President’s insistence on Huerta’s salute of the flag would be clearer, more logical and tenable. We do not know about this. It is a question that goes too deep into international morals and diplomatic casuistry for us to di- grees and follow after at this juncture On its face, it seems to us, one might as well say that, under the old person al code of honor, one could not seize and trottle a bully and ruffian who had affronted and assaulted him because, the code, the bully and ruftian was not his equal and could not be recogni zed and called out as such. —Columbia Record, ifVcingG Grove Items. (Too late for ast week.) It begins to feel a little like corn planting time. Messrs. E. N. and Ernest Cates of Mebane spent Sunday at the Grove The Rev. Mr. Dixon preached an excellent sermon Sunday und was heard by a large crowd. The bond issue for the building of the Greensboro Northern and Atlantic Railway was carried by five majority in Bingham Township. Now let her come. The many friends of Miss Inez Reynolds will be surprised to learn that she was married on June, 20, 1913 at Asheville to Prof. Privett now Supt. of Schools in Beaufort County. The marriage had been kept a secret from their relatives and friends, but was recently announced. After the announce ment they took a tour of the Northern Cities. Miss Reynolds, the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Reynolds is a graduate of the Orange Grove School, and had taken a course at King’s Business College; also a special course in art and music at Limestone College of S. C. and held before and since her marriage has held a responsible position with the State Board of Health. Mr. Privett is a graduate of Wake Forest College, and has taken a special course at Chicago University. They have the best wishes of a host of friends. The Orange Grove School commence ment will be held on Friday evening and night April, 24th, beginning at 2 o’clock P. M. In the evening Prof. M. C S. Noble of the State University will lecture, followed by exercises by the students. At night “Josiah’s Courtship” will be given The whole program is splendid and a large crowd is expected. Supper will be on the ground and everybody is cordially envited. Quite a number of the Orange Grove people attended the picnic at Occo- neechee Easter Monday and had a very nice time. Greeks Volunteers. The United States is, perhaps, the most cosmopolitan country in the world, but when war threatens the spirit that has made America a trae republic and filled her career with conquests bums within every breast and, regardless of nationality, every man in America rushes forward to fight under the stars and stripes. In Richmond something like one hundred Greeks have banded together and offered their services to the United States- All Greeks are fighters and in the ranks of these loyal volunteers are a number of old warriors who have seen service in defense of be loved G^'eece. They and their com panions will strike strong blows in behalf of their adopted country should the call to arms be sounded. The noble Grecian gladiator still lives. —Wilming ton Lispatch. Advertising Pays (From the Wall Street Journal.) Being solicited for renewal of an ad vertising contract which expired re cently, the office manager of a large brokerage house, in an endeavor to reduce expenses during dull times, hesitatad about renewing the contract until the solicitor asked him: “Have you lost your faith in adver tising? Don’t you know .that when a duck lays an egg she waddles off as if nothing had happened? When a hen lays one, there’s a dickens of a noise.
