' Couple and Three Children Arrive
In Charlotte With Nothing.
Charlotte. Jan. 10.—Flat broke
' scantily clothed. Jerry Morrison,
his wife and three children, from
near Knoxville. Tenn., landed in
Charlotte Thursday afternoon. They
immediately'began a search for work'
I and found it in a mill. The man got
a job working in the day time, his
wife with the night force.
I Bat, that was. just one of the
trouble that beset the family, nc-
| cording to the story which was told
jto Salvatiou Army officers Friday
1 j night, when this organization made
| arrangements to keep them until
"they can get straight."
j "Everything we had was burned.”
I Mr. Morrison explained. "We knew
! how to work n a mill and we came
here hoping that we’ could get work.
Me and my wife got a job in the
mill.”
"Y'es, everything was burned."
corroborated Mrs. Morrison- “We
ain't got a stick of nor
j nothing to speak of.”
House. No Furniture.
“The mill folks has given ns a
three-room house to live in, but we
aint got no furniture to go in it,”
added Mr. Morrison.
I "Y'ou see, if we could got enough
| furniture to make out with, by me

j working in the daytime. Maggie
(twelve years old) could take care of
the house and look after Ollie (age!
five years) and Lizzie (ago four
years),” Mrs. Morrison added.

Coach Fetzer Sells His Camp.
Chapel Hill. Jan. 11.—'W. McK
Fetzer. University athletic coach, ’has
sold his summer camp of about) 500
hundred acres, near Brevard in west
ern North Carolina, for $125,000. He
bought it four years ago. Including
the buildings and other improvements,
the place cost him $40,000.
Mr. Fetzer opened his summer camp
for boys twelve yenrh ago. For eight
years, hbwever, he had the ground on
ly upon leases. Then lie found that
he either had to buy or move off, so
he bought.
He . was not anxious to give the
camp tip, ami when he was approach
ed by a would-be purchaser last Sep
tember he named a figure that lie felt
sure would not be accepted. How
ever, the man bought ail option, and
three months later took title to the
land.
After the deal had been consum
mated a banker friend of Mr. Fetzer’s
said to him :
"Why, you just gave that place
away.”
"Well, never mind,” he replied.
"I’m satisfied—l'm willing for some
body else to make a profit on it‘•lf
he can.”
Mr. Fetzer will not establish an
other camp. He has bought a farm
about a mile uway' from his former
camp and. when ’he is not engaged in
athletic coaching, will pursue his fav
orite occupation of farming.
Use Ultra-Violet Ray to Get More and
Better Eggs.
Madison. Wis., Jan. B.—(A 3 )—The
ultra-violet ray, already employed
profitably by n.edieal men to heal hu
man ills, is being used at the Univer
sity of Wisconsin to produce “more
and better" eggs nnd chickens.
Nearly three times ns many eggs
can be produced by action of the ray,
the departments of agricultural chem
istry and poultry have found.
Heavier shells in irradiated pens
also increased marketability of eggs
and greater hatehability resulted. The
ultra-violet light was found to cure
fowls suffering from rickets.
On January i, 1925, four groups of
' pedigreed leghorns were put on simi
lar rations in identically arranged
pens, without nntural light. The
pens were artificially lighted during
1 daylight hours.
Two groups were subjected to ultra
violet radiation. When the eggs were
collected two to three times as many
eggs were found in the irradiated pens
as in the ordinarily lighted houses.
: Egg production began to increase
markedly within eight days after ul«
I tra violet light was applied.

IS TALK OF CHANGING
DURHAM TO DUKE
But Nothin* Done Yet Along Tint
Line—Mail Reached City Ad
dressed to “Duke.”
Durham, Jan. 11.—According to
stories which have been going the
rounds here since n much talked
about, dinner was held at the Wash
ington Duke hotel last Thursday
night, the fact that the name of Dur
ham was not then and there changed
to Duke was due to an attack of
nervousness or cold feet on the part
of those who had believed that this
could be done. It is said that the
suggestion was so be made aud that
a vote was to have been taken then
and there and. if it went through,
the public in general would have
been osked to give its sanction. Os
course, the changing of the name of
the city from Durham to Duke would
have brought about all sorts of com
plications but right now there are
many people here who are willing to
do anything to pay tribute to the
memory- of the city's most illustrious
citizen. Glowing tribute was paid to
the late benefactor at the dinner but
that was as far ns‘the matter went.
Scores present were expecting a
suggestion to be put forth at any *
minute thnt the name of the city be
changed, blit the affair came to a
close without this being done. The
name of the little town of Duke, in
Harnett county, was recently
changed to Erwin and there is not a
place oft hat name in the state at
the present time, though much of
the mail .matter now reaching the
city is addressed to Duke University,

The Enoch vi lie Cream Route.
Salisbury, Jan. 12.—GW—Patrons
of the Enoelivilie cream route in Row
an county have received $52,891 for
their surplus cream during the past
eleven years, reports County Agent
W. G. Yeager.
Tile average number of patrons
during this period has been 25. and
they have received a yearly income
of about S2OO per family from the
shipments. This income, says Mr.
Yeager, has been secured at a mini
mum of expense and labor above the
the regular farm program, and has
maintained a balance on these farniß
that was not possible to secure from
any other source, he believes.
