OCR FURNITURE RANKING. According to the Thirty-fourth Re port of tile North Carolina Depart ment of Labor and Printing, submit ted December 1. 1024. the number of furniture factories in the State at that time was 99. the capital stock thereof prescribed $12.734,000; the value of yearly output, $41,619,000: amount annually paid wage earners, $7,799.- 000: units of horse-power employed, 14,941. and total number of persons engaged in plant operations. 11,181. As to the rank of North Carolina iu the Cnited States, the task is not Very difficulty. In 191!). New York rated first in value of products. Michi gan second, Illinois third. Indiana fourth, Pennsylvania fifth. Wiscon sin sixth. Ohio seventh. North Cnro llna eighth. With resjiect to the av erage number of wage earners, pri mary liorsepawer. amount of wages and the cost of materials, the various States occupy the same position with one or two minor exceptions as ip case of value of products. A proof of the growth of the furni ture industry in North Carolina and the South is found in the reports of the Interstate Commerce Commission on carload shipments of furniture. Mr. Ryan presents some interesting figures in this connection. In 1921 the total number of solid carloads cf furnturc shipped in the United States were 53.210: in 1922. 75.726; in 1923, 98.462 and in 1924, !)4.221. The to tal number of carloads of furniture shipper] from the South in these years were, in 1921, 84)68. in 1922, 15.387. in 1923, 23095; aud in 1924. 24.878. In other words, in 1921 the South shipped 16.9 per cent, of the total; in 1022. 20.3 per cent, of the total: in 1923. 13.5 per cent., and in 1924 26.3 per cent. From 1921 to 1924 the Nation its a whole showed an increase in the number of carload of shipments of about 70 )>er cent., while the South shower an increase of more than 175 per cent. Als the carloads shipped ; from the South in 1924 were 7.7 per I cent, greater than in 192.3, whereas the Country ns'a whole exhilrted a decrease of 4.3 per cent, v Withjn the State of North Caro \ linn, the furniture industry occupies l: a major position. In 1923 cotton |{ manufacturing came first with prod •; llcts valued at $326,572,000, tobaoert f, timber products third witli $52,950,- 000, and furniture fourth.

Kfeflß&fcing under directions from the BS§rtto)i J»g»lth; author ities, nurses of! ftflie’leitjy; and caunty are endeavoring now to csfablisfi nutrVliun classes in various pithfie schools of Concord. The KgSpstw in one school now show the Hp# such work in CoficoHl. Health authorities agree ->n this one plfc»li6-*-tbat parents should guard ill*'. '»• > j eloafcly the habits of any child found i 10 per cent, under weight. It is said that a number of children 10 per , cent under weight have been found in ’ the local schools and in some instances children are as much as 20 per cent, under weight. \ > * This is an important matter, one i that is almost certain to affect the health of the child in later the child does not want to eat proper food he or she must be made to do so if they are 10 per cent, under weight. “Potential tubercular” is the way one expert describes these underweight children. Parents should co-operate with the nurse and the school authorities in this matter. Take this one case, as example. Two years ago in an Ashe ville school there was a boy that could not be controlled. He was ir ritable, indifferent, mean (and hateful. Teachers dreaded to see him enter their room. Finally he was caught stealing from desks in the school. Then an investigation was started. A physical examination developed the fact that lie was badly underweight aud a personal inquiry developed the* fact that he was hungry. He was put on a systemaic diet at school, was told to eat healthful food at home and was closely watched. At yie end of the year he led his class in behavior, physical fitness and class work. It was found that every penny he had stolen went for food. The health of the children is a vital question. We should safeguard them now, teach them the importance of careful diet and compel them, if nec essary. to eat those foods that build them into strong girls and boys. Former Colonel Mitchell can talk all he wants to now. While the pub lic feels that many of the things be said were true, it would have been better for him and better for army discipline if be lmd resigned before making his charges. He will be heard with attention ami interest as a civil ian and should be able to accomplish much that is worth while. That some thing should be done with our air force is an accepted fact. Colonel Mitchell can make as great a record as a civilian as a soldier if he can direct the government into the right air channel. THE BOWMAN TRIAL* IS SET FOR WEDNESDAY Venire of 100 Men Called to Select Jury'; Imposing Array of Counsel of Hand. Newton. Feb. I.—ln Superior Court today, immediately upon the conclu sion of Judge James L. Webb's charge to the grand jury. Solicitor R. L. Huffman announced that the State would be ready either tomorrow" or Wednesday for the trial of the capital felony against Major Wade V. Bow man, and requested that the special ventire be drawn from the box in stead of being summoned by the sheriff from the bystanders. Charles W. Bagbj, or counsel for the defendant, announced that the defendant would be ready for trial and suggested that inasmuch as there is a very large docket of minor mat ters. it would possibly be better to begin the trial on Wednesday instead of tomorrow. The solicitor concurred in this view, so did Judge Webb, so that the case will be called for trial on Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock. After some discussion it was finally agreed that a venire of 100 men would be suffi cient from which to select the jury for the trial of the case. Judge Webb ruled favorably upon Solicitor Huffman’s motion and or dered the ventire drawn from the box, which was done, and Sheriff Host arid his deputies are now engaged upon the task of summoning 100 men from every section of Catawba county. prisoner was brought into court during the progress of Judge Webb’s charge to the grand jury and paid close attention to the judge’s charge* and seemingly paid no attention to the court house packed full of people. The little girl upon whom the al leged assault was made was not in ; court today and will not be here until her presence is required in order to testify. It is understood that the little girl is sticking to her original story of the completed crime and that the solicitor has witnesses who will corroborate her story as to the state ments made by her almost immediate ly after the alleged assault. It will be recalled that the de fendant. Mr. Bowman, was a major in the United States army, but ten dered Ids resignation to Adjutant General J. R. Van Metts, shortly af ter the alleged assault. Bowman is a married man and ap pears to be about 35 years of age and of striking personality. His V-ife was not iu court today, but his aged father has been 'jere all day and is apparently much interested in the defense of his son. aud together with his son has employed some of the ablest legal talent in North Carolina.

North Carolina Adjutant General Is . Given Command of 60th Brigade. Raleigh News and Observer, Adjutant General J. Van B. Metts was yesterday commissioned by Gov ernor A. W. McLean as Brigadier 1 General in command of the 60th In -1 fantry Brigade, which consists of the 120th Infantry of the North Carolina National Guard. The appointment was made by and with the consent of Governor Austin Peay, of Tennes see. The troops making up the command of Brigadier General Metts come from North Carolina and Tennessee. The 59th Infantry Brigade, which consists of troops from Georgia and South Carolina, has. its headquarters in Atlanta, (ja. Both brigades com prise the 30th division. General Metts has enjoyed almost steady promotion ever since he en tered the National Guard in January, 1894. He enlisted with the Wilming ton Light Infantry when he was only 17 years of age and he has devoted practically his entire life to the serv ice of his State and country. ► He went to the Mexican border in 1915, when Poneha Villa, the r.ebel leader, went on a rampage and caused the American "punitive expedition" to be sent there to curb his warlike ten dencies. At that time General Metts was a colonel in command of the old Second North Carolina Regiment. , In 1917. he was placed in com mand of the 119th Infantry, a part of the 36th division, and went with the Outfit to France. Fos his services, he was awarded the distinguished service medal. He also received a citation from General John J. Persh ing. Following the armistice, General Metts remained in the service and was sent on various missions, one of which included a trip to the Canal Zone. He was mustered out of the service in May, 1920. In June, 1920, General Metts was appointed Adjutant General of North Carolina by tfie late Governor Thomas IV. Bickett. He succeeded Adjutant General Beverly S. Royster, of Ox ford. who resigned. General Metts has been instrument al in the re-organization of the North Carolina National Guard, which was virtually disbanded after the return of the men from France. Ilis efforts have apparently met with consider able success, according to various guard officials who have stated that the guard is on the verge of attaining the prominence it enjoyed prior to the trips to the Mexican binder and France.

CHAPTER IV—Continued Michael felt the futile rage of a cageff Hon. “May I ask what those particular reasons gpe?” “You may certainly ask even if l think it none of your business!” Dolores purred. “At least I will say that the reasons are known only to Paul and myself. Now, Monsieur, I regret that I am forced to tear myself away from your de lightful company, but as I remind ed you before, I have an engage ment —with Paul.” “Just a moment more! To put, the matter hi a brutal fashion, I think that I understand you per fectly, Mademoiselle.

"What a miraculous transfo>-ma lion," Dolores taunted, her beauti tul face aflame with passion. "But let me recite a few facts for you, tlichael! We met at a dinner party t year ago. I interested you. You showered me with attentions and devotions that 1 thought you alone Colette's clothes were wringing wet. were capable of offering. I never loubted your sincerity. And then and then” her voice trailed town to self-virtuous whispers—“l grew to love you. I gave you the host In my life. It was true love, too.

Noy, because I have reach ed a vulnerable spot in your selfish life, you ask me—arid doubtless expect me—to cease attacking you In that spot. By doing so, I would win thanks from you and that would be all. Would thanks give me back that year of my ljte? Wriuld thanks efface memories? No, Michael!" Poloreß walked close to him, her voice ringing with challenge. “My chance to repay the score has come!
