Jan. 27.—A nfw sky ; lino is rising above the old athletic field at Duke University, strongly indicating that the first unit of a §20,000,000 building program is well | under way. j Here, a year or more ago, irish men and class teams of old Trinity ; College played aud practiced football, baneball and soccer. Today the foundations of ten mag nificent bui.dings have been com pleted and steel workers are rearing the red beams skyward. In another year new unit of buildings, erected at a cost of more than $4,000,000. will be occupied as the most complete and beautiful group in the South. Hundreds of workingmen, equip ped with modern buildiug machinery, are at work on the new university plant. Giant 1 cranes are being used to handle the huge bars of steel and heavy slabs of stone. Dozens of freight cars move on the spur track leading to the building site each day. No time is being lest in preparing the new buildings for the hundreds qf, students who are expected to nock to Duke next year; and at the same time every effort is being made to make the structure completely equipped, beautiful and serviceable as any that may be found elsewhere. A mile or more southeast, in the center of a 5,000-aere tract, and on a magnificently wooded ridge are scores of small posts, marked with numerals that only surveyors and architects understand. These show the locutions of 40 sandsomc stone buildings that are to become the principal group of buildings in Dukes incomparable plant/ Pines, great oaks and other trees add to tin natural beauty of the new campus and make it a plnee of quietude. It is not definitely known when actual building operations wil begin on the new and bigger unit of univer sity structures, but it is thought not improbable that Activities will get under way during the spring. Five years will he required to complete the new plant. This larger group will eventually become the men's university while the present campus with its new buildings will be turned over to the university’s women's college. David H.

The vote brought to an end ope of jthe bitterest fights the senate hnu had aince the memorable struggle over the league of nations. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wife of the war President, sat in the crowded galleries with rapt attention an the senate cast the vote giving its "ad vice and consent" to American mem bership in the court set up under the covenant of the league which her husband brought back from Paris, and which the senate rejected March 10, 1020. Operating under the drastic clo ture rule limiting debate, the senate worked far past its usual hour of nd jcurnmtnt in order to reach the final vote. There was five hours of debate and then a rapid fire of roll calls on which every reservation pressed by opponents of the court was rejected by overwhelming ma jorities. The final roll call came suddenly after Senator Johnson, republican. California, had made a dramatic last minute appeal for rejection of the resolution of adhesion. Party lines disappeared in the votipg, 40 repub licans and 3(1 democrats casting their ” : 1 i -—l - NEW TIME AND DIAL MACHINE Contrivance, Invented by Tar Heel, Is Wonderful Canculator. Newton.

New York, Jan. 27.—While the market has* presented a somewhat tired appearance aud might drag low er for a time, the buying is of better character than the selling and in spite of rumors of an easier basis in some sections nothing is heard of any cot ton heading here for delivery. Advices from various foreign countries indi cate an active consumption and even iu Lancashire private reports suggest that the worst has been seen and al though English consumption irtay not reach the earlier estimates, it prom ises to compare favorably with recent years. Domestic consumption is on a veryt satisfactory scale aud it dees not look that any really desirable cotton wil? go begging this year or that any such sensational break in the basis will be seen as would make it profitable to ship cotton for delivery on contract. Weekly statistics for a time may com pare rather poorly and spot demand prove somewhat’slack until the time j comes to fill outstanding engagements! for the balance of the season which are believed to be fairly heavy for the months from February on. Selling is not aggressive but in vol ume sufficient to satisfy existing de mand and take the edge off any ad vance that start so that purchasers should act conservatively and be pre pared to protect their interests if fur ther recessions occur. Close observers believe that an unparalleled situation exists in the May and July positions with sensational possibilities. 'y y POST AND FLAGG. [ MOUNTAIN SECTION NOT LAGGING Us EDUCATION | Boone. Exclusive of Teachers. Has a College Graduate Far 70 In habitants. Boonr. Jan. 27.—Dr. 3. D. Ran | kin. of the State Normal, has beep . investigating the proportion of col lege graduates for Boone compared with the average in the United States. He finds the average for the United Stater, to he one college graduate for every 89 inhabitants in 1925, the average in the town of Boone to be one for every 70 in habitants, uot including any one connected with the Normal, the high school, nor the demonstration school. To include the students and faculty in the population of the town the proportion would be one college graduate for every 39 inhabitans. Os course the county would not average the same as the town, as it would not anywhere, but at the same time then* is a considerable number of eqllege graduates in the various sections of the county, possibly aver aging fairly well with any of the counties. And these graduates are from four-year standard colleges. The proportion of college grad uates for Boone, not including the Normal and other schools, may be a surprise to many who have a wrong idea of the mountain section in gen eral, and this may be especially a GOING SOUTH? v “ - Fisher’s THE NEWEST OF THE NEW COMING IN AND GOING OUT t For Those Who Follow The Robins Southward We have assembled the most ador able collection of Smart Coats, Dress es and Headwear. ’Twould be impossible to describe their varied loveliness—one must set It’s Never Better Else- them in order to appreciate. where—lt’s Always Best „ ETCUCDIC Here rlOrilllv J surprise to those writers and their friends who have been writing and reading exaggerated reports of the mountain people. The real fact about the matter is that the mountain people are about like those ofe other rural sections of our own state and other crates, ex cept that they are of a purer Anglo- Saxon type, and striving against odds in a more difficult situation, but at the same time amid the grandeur of the wonderful scenery around them, they are more strongly developed in body and mind, and many of them in soul, so that a large number of them when they come in competition with those from other sections, easily stand first.
