The New York Sun recently car ried a North Carolina edition of its paper, setting forth intelligently some of the things the State has done, with a comprehensive outline of what is being done and what will be done in the future. Editorially the paper said in the same edition: The renaissance of Dixie is no where so marked ns it is in North Carolina, whose story is told today in The Sun. For ten years the Nation lias been watching this State clear with one great bound the moraßS of fifty years of poverty and depression to reach the level plain of a new cen tury of promise and achievement. There are those who say that good schools have worked the transition. Others point to a thousand miles of good roads and still others talk an terms of hydro-electric power. But perhaps they are nearer correct who go behind figures and statistics and point to courageous men who lifted themselves up by their own bootstraps and pulled their State with them— men who worked out their own des tinies and in doing so led their people out of the depths by teaching them the value of hard work and by inspir ing them to success. Duke aDd Reynolds, with a few mules and n few pounds of tobacco, laid the foundation of a great indus try. Others of their stamp set up the small mills in the cotton fields and Jfr today New England must look to her laurels as the textile leader of the country. Governors like Aycock and Morrison dotted the State with school houses and lined it with modern high ways. Another of the Dukes harness ed the streams from the mountains to move the wheels of the tobacco and cotton factories. Yes, North Carolina has reason to be proud of her accomplishments, and even more so because she has played the hand alone and achieved her goal by the vision and toil of her own sons. AMERICA LEADER IN HIGHER EDUCATION. America leads the other natiohs of the world in giving her young people higher education. Coing to a univer sity is not nearly so popular in any other nation as it is in the United States. Pr. Ernest Barker, principal of King’s College, London, recently gave to a teacher’s conference figures show ing the number of university students in the leading nations of the world and these figures show that in no oth er country do as many young people attend universities as in America. In England and Wales the ratio of students to the total population is one to 1,200. In Scotland there is one student to every 400 population, while in the'United States the ratio is one to 300. Germany has one university stu dent to every 600 persons, and Dr. Barker said this high average Is due to the concentration in the universl ’ ties on legal training and training for the service of the state. Englnnd and Wales have 30,000 students now and Dr. Barker docs not expect that number to increase more than 10,000 in (he next two decades. In his opinion, big universities are apt to run to seed in “organization” and the heads of departments may be come sot consumed in management that they have little time for educa tion. He said the true way for stu dents to learn is to have personal touch with teachers, which may eas ily be lost in great institutions. FACTS .ABOUT BRITISH STRIKE. The lnbor upheaval in Grpat Brit ain involves 2.525,000 workers in most of the principal industries of the country. Against these the Govern ment can at need muster the 500.000 men in the army, navy, air force and militia and the 75,000 volunteers in ‘Admiral Jellicoe's Organization for the Maintenance of Supplies. The trades affected by the strike— the General Council of the Trades t'nion Congress has designated which are to quit work—aud the number in each are: Miners. 1.120.000. Railwaymen 410,000, Railway clerks 60.000, Build ers 200.000. Transport workers 330,- 000. Seamen 00.000. Printers 120,000, Ironworkers 100,000, Electricinns 25 - 000. The difficulty is the result of n long drawn out disput in the coal in dustry. Tlte owners contended the' industry could not afford present wages unless hours of work were lengthened. The Government lias been paying a subsidy to make up the existing scale, but this was discontin ued May 1. The owners refused to pay more and the strike was called Saturday. All organized labor, be lieving this was the first move in gen eral wage reductions, suports the min ers with a general strike. The Government takes the attitude that the men's position is a challenge to British freedom. It is prepnred to use troops to keep order and volun tary aid to transport the necessaries of life. Work of Rebuilding Dam at Try on is Now Under Way. Tryon, Miay s.—Workmen today took possession of the quarters pro vided for them below the Lake La nier dam and tomorrow- the work of preparing the foundation tor the spill-way of the reconstructed dam will be begun.

Statesville, May s—The informa tion goes out from Raleigh that Ire dell county will send its attorney to Newton May 10 to join the State Highway Commission in its fight against the town of Newton in its contention for the location of the section of No. 10 between Statesville and Newton. Iredell is doing noth ing of the sort, says the Statesville Daily. It is not entering into any fight whatever. It will be represented at the hearing of the restraining order and will ask that Iredell not be included in the order; that the Commission go ahead and construct the part of the highway that is in Iredell county, from Statesville to the Catawba river, as surveyed and adopted by the commission. It is said that the bail is less lively this year, but this fact 9eoms to have made no difference in the ter rific hatting of te New York Yan kees.

I Washington, May s.—With most of its principal provisions re-written, the $165,000,000 public buildings bill was passed today by the Senate and sent to conference. • As the measure now stands Secre , tary Mellon retains only a semblance of the broad powers conferred upon him by itic house measure in ex pending both thp $100,000,000 gen eral fund for new construction out side of the District of Columbia ami the $15,000,000 for Completing build ings authorized unnder the last build i ings bill, passed before the World I War. | Under nn amendment approved to day after conferences between Re publican and Democratic leaders the $15,000,000 fund would be made avail able during the next two fiscal years in an equal sum for each year in stead of over a period of years with annual expenditures to be 'determined by the treasury. Before entering into contracts for buildings to be constructed out of the $100,000,000 general fund the treasury would be required to submit to Congress for pproval specific recommendations in each case nnd would have to ’base these recommen dations upon population, area nnd postal receipts. Another provision of the measure is •hat every state which had postal re ceipts in excess of SIO,OOO. last year is to get at least one new postoffice. Livingston's Cotton Letter. New York. May 5.—A1l things considered, the cotton market has made a very steady showing again today. Evidently the trade is more inclined to await developments .in conneetioin with both the crop and the British labor troubles than to discount any particular view of the outcome in either direction. Perhaps the weekly report of the weather' bureau this morning placed a little more stress on unfnvorau-? features than expected- This may have been a factor. Another may have been the outlook for a renewal of showery conditions following yesterday's showers in the southwest but the prospect is also for the warmer weather which is needed all over the south. On tlie whole there seems hardly enough of nn unfavorable character in the weather news to make much buying power but offerings were light and after selling about 7 to 8 points net lower early, prices rallied with new crop positions relatively steady. There was no change of im portance in the British labor news ‘but while everyone realizes how seriously a eontin nation of the strike might in time react on general busi ness the world over there is also a realization that any day may bring a settlement of the troubles. Reports of rain at San Antonio and other parts of South Texas which probably Contributed to the late steadiness. No exports v-sp, reported from any port today but a day or two without ex ports at thus season ofthe year is by no means unusual and so far have beard of no delay or cancellation of cotton shipments to the other side.

SYNOPSIS iforie Downey, innocently fn polved in scandal by Clifford Dud ley, an actor , climbs to stardom because of the notoriety. John, a former sweetheart, writes that he believes in her, wants to marry her. Marie, tasting success, puts him off. For three years she lives, with her chum Sally, a gay life. .She invites Clifford to her birthday party and revenges herself by "‘running him ragged" in front of the guests. John, an unannounced visitor, is mistaken for a beggar by the butler CHAPTER Xl—(Continued) And now, here he was, and no Jackass in livery was going to keep him from a sight of her. Nor could Bhe say she was not at home. He Saw the lighted windows and heard (he murmurs and shrieks of ex hilarated voices with a panting heart. Somewhere in that com bined noise was her voice. The butler, who had run down a flight of steps, half-opened the service door, grabbed John by the hrm and pulled him through into a small hall from which the kitchen gave. “Go into the kitchen, you, If you want something to eat.” “Say—l don’t—" began John pulling back his arm viciously. The outside bell rang again, and the butler, muttering, hurried back up the stairs. “You’ll get no money, here,” he called back firmly to John. Non-repeatable words were all that John could think of in answer. It was no good calling them at the butler’s back, so he stood silently, sick with himself for having got Into such a muddle, and half re solved to go back through the When John finally confronted Marie— service door. But why, when he had come such away? And now, at least, he was inside her house. He Btood and waited for about live minutes, but it seemed in terminable. The door between up italrs and down was half open, and he could hear sounds of laughter and mirth. He climbed the small Bight of steps cautiously and in jerted himself through the half »pen door. It opened into the outer lobby and a small waiting room, now hung with men’s coats and hats. Opening from the lobby on the other side was a series of closed doors through which John heard the party at Its frantic height Right in front of him rose the gleaming rails of the staircase. As John stood, undecided, he saw the handle of the living room door turn, as It someone were about to open It Obeying the im pulse of the fugitive, he fled up the shallow stairs and before the living room door had opened, he had gained the top. The landing, partly hidden from Ihe front door, had low-cushioned window seata on either side of french windows, now open to the spring air. Part of the landing pad been curtained off to form a Hf alcove. The curtains were wn about It now. Above the ding, after another small flight ft stairs, were ranged closed doors. John took his surroundings in at a glance, for footsteps were com mg up the stairs. Perceiving the dimness of a balcony through the french windows of the landing, he stepped through Instinctively. tt was a wide balcony, almost kke another long, low room, with gn awnlnged top, and the sky Creeping in at the sides, over the failing of plants whioh fenced It m. It had been built curiously and ipedaHy for a writer who wanted an outdoor workroom, but John lid not know this. Another French Window led into the curtained al re. This tiny private space lay semi-darkness. John could just See two chairs, set as for a tete a tats by the window. He hovered gthe second window beesuse i comparatively dark. The y, too, had only the light the hall and the dim light an the landing. This part of Maria’s honaa gave Jafca a testing as paaaa Thaos Anthracite and Bituminous Coal, The Pathfinder. Question: Since the recent coal strike there has been considerable dis cussion here concerning the names of the two kinds of coal eommonly uhcc! as fuel in the home. Will you please tell us the correct way to use these words when speaking of coal? Answer : Anthracite is _ sufficient and all that should be used when speaking of that kind of coal. The word comes directly from the Greek “anthrax” which means coal. An 'thracite means “hard coal.” To say was something rural about It, the rather wispy plot of grass below, a tree rustling its budding branches on a level with his face. He did not guess how much money this ruralness and simplic ity cost In New York, so he was not awed as he had been by the sight of the house from the out side, the silk and lace at its win dows, the butler, the cars waiting outside, and the silken collars of men’s evening coats in the waiting room. “Oh. but—Clifford—" He jumped almost audibly and crouched against the darker win dow of the alcove. Marie and Clifford had stepped through the other window from the landing, cutting off retreat They were walking to the rail ot the balcony. He strained for a glimpse of Marie’s face, but he could only see the green sheen o( her dress and hear her voice, soft but the words clear-cut. carrying, as he did not remember them. An actress’ enunciation. Clifford’s voice was Just as trenchant. An actor’s voice. "i didn’t think you would see me again. I have longed to eee you—ever since. But I was afraid —I was afraid you might hate me.’’ "Perhaps 1 should.” responded Marie’s voice with a distinct catch In It. “Oh. why. why did you do that to me?” “My dear!” Clifford was really working himself into a frenzy ol sincerity. “Oh. my dear! If you knew howi they kept at me, forced me. threatened me. I would not blame you If you hated me.” “Perhaps I should bate you—" said Marie slowly. “But—” Clifford caught her hands and bent over her. “But—” x "But—l—don't —>' finished Marie with a little sob. John crouched lower Into ths dark window. He put his hands to his ears with some vague desire not to hear the fatal words, but he could not help hearing. “But you don’t,” cried Clifford triumphantly. “You don’t!” “Ah. my dear, you hold my heart in your two little hands—” He drew her closer. Marie heard a slow murmur up the stairs. If ll had not been so dim. and If Cllf ford had not been; so occupied, Clifford might have noticed the glint in her eyes at that. But ho was oblivious. “Oh, my dearest —’’ he continued. Marie could not help it for the life of her. She murmured grave ly, "And my heart will be—" “Yours,” went on Clifford, seiz ing his cue and looking up in hl» best manner; “yours till the stars and the moon—” They concluded together In a soft chorus: “Are no more!” The ghost of a “sh-sh” was audi ble to Marie’s ears, on the lookout for it. But Clifford did not bear He clasped Marie in his arms with thanksgiving, and, finding her there, was surprised by the onrush of passion that was not schooled or rehearsed. As she met his kisses, John turned and rushed through the other window into the alcove. He stumbled into a chair aud, with hjs head into his hands, gave himself over to misery. Marie shook herself free sud denly, giving the surprised Dudl*y a resounding slap on the cheek. “Walt a minute, you sap. Youte crushing my dress.” This was the signal. Sally, lead ing a group which had been hiding on the landing and up the stalfa outside the windows, burst in hilari ously. And as Clifford whitened, the merrymakers fell upon him, shouting mock congratulations, shrieking mock advice. “Cliff, don’t you ever change that line?” “Nevah change the line or the girl, do you, Cliff? Good ol’ Cliff. Faithful ol’ dog!" The word “dog” brought immedi ate associations to a blonde, far gone In liquor, who began to yell, "Here, Towser, here, Towserl” till someone stifled her outcries. The laughter rose to pandemon ium. Clifford was pulled this way and that, while people gasped with mirth at his flustered face. Sally’s piercing voice kept up a flow ot wise cracks In her best manner. She threw herself against Clif ford. “Here sh-shtands the lousiest ac tor,” she enunciated with difficulty, but In a voice that rose cuttingly above the noise, “that Marie Downee ever had the good fortnna to meet” “’Ray! Speecn!” “Ya-a-ay, Speech!" “Three-ee cheeahs tor the lousi est actor Marie Downee evah ” In spite ot herself, Marie sick ened at the sight ot Clifford's face, through the group, now lost to all reserve, to everything but the sport of kidding. His face flushed and paled by turns, as It It were being slapped at intervals. She avoided hands that were clapping her on the back, that were gliding approv ingly about her shoulders and look ed about for an escape. I (To Bo Continued) “anthracite coal” is tautological. But bituminous requires the word coal after it as it i« only an adjective where anthracite is a non.
