Ca-Vel Beats Durham For First Half Honors Ca-Vel met Durham on Its home ground Saturday and won from them by taking advantage of the breaks of the game. They came through with two big scoring in nings getting three runs in each of the third and the seventh. The final score was 8-7 with Ca-Vel lead ing. The entire game was featured by errors from both, sides. Lefty Parker allowed Ca-Vel nine bingles, three of them by Briggs. Durham got ten safeties off E. Wilburn with Beverly Perrell taking top honors, with a home run and two singles. This game was the deciding one for the first half banner of the Central League. On Thursday of last week Ca-Vel met Hillsboro on the Dur ham field to play oil the game for second place. Durham was leading with seven wins and three losses; Hillsboro and Ca-Vel trailing with six wins and three losses apiece. Ca Vel won the game in Durham b.v 7-5, thereby throwing the lead in a two-way tie between Durham and Ca-Vel. The playoff occurring Sat urday with Ca-Vel winning puts them in undisputed possession of first place. This was also the first game of the second half, thus giv-1 ing them a good start on the rodd to winning the season's banner. Jalong lost to Hillsboro ..Saturday by 10-4. Hillsboro was outhit by 10-9 but managed theirs so that they collected 10 runs while allowing Jalong only four. Mann and H. Riley for Hillsboro, and Sultt, May-j nard and Wilburn for Jalong led the hitting for the day. Hillsboro play ed very erratic ball in the field, mak ing nine errors, five of them by Mann, regular outfielder, playing shortstop. BOX SCORES Durham ab. r. h. a. Goodwin, 2b 5 1 1 2 P.

Orders for new machines taken - 1 -r GREEN'S Watchmakers and Jewelers TODAY and fcahkmrmr STOCKBRIOOEl \ SCIENTISTS?at work The popular Idea of a scientist is an old man with an absenUmhid ed expression hunting through a microscope for something tha t wouldn't be any use if he found it. I wish I could take every one of my readers through any of the great industrial laboratories with which 1 am familiar, and in which ! I have often watched scientists at work. One of them employs more than a thousand young men. each of whom has a university Doctor's degree, In chemistry, engineering or philosophy, and has had to prove his ability to do original research work before he could get his Job. They are very far from being the doddering dodoes which the public imagfhes men .of science to be. They are as keen, human and interesting a group of men as I have ever en countered anywhere. Their prime purpose is to find ways to make the telephone work faster, better and cheaper But hi byproducts of their discoveries such inventions as talk ing pictures, chain broadcasting, television and many other things have come out of that laboratory. PROGRESS?a look back I have little patience with the common complaint that inventions and machinery have brought the world to ruin. Exactly the opposite lis true. Who would be content to go back, even to the days of my own: boyhood? : I can remember when there were, no telephones, no electric lights no electric power, no airplanes, no motion pictures, no phonographs, no typewriters, no Nortland cement, no bathtubs or plumbing to speak of, no gas engines, no automobiles, of course, and not even any bicycles. Wireless telegraphy and its offspring, radio broadcasting, were undreamed of; the dirigible aircraft was a ro mantic novelist's fantasy. I could fill this column with products of the application of science by invention t?' serve hu manity. I think -the world is better off. | HEALTH?life saver I saw a notice posted In a New1 Yorb subway car the other day in which the Health Commissioner pointed out that only 37 babies died' in the big city of diphtheria last year, whereas several thousand died of it annually only a few years ago. Anti-toxin has put an end to this massacre of the Innocents. Ohe by one, in my own time, I have seen the scourages of mankind vanish under the advance of medi cal science. Smallpox, bubonic, yel low fever, malaria, typhus, typhoid, tuberculosis, scarlet fever, all the long list of diseases that took high toll of human lives when I was a bey, have been banished or are rap Idly being conquered by the forward march of civilization and the steady advance In medical knowledge arid public hygiene measures. CANCER?needs' research One of my friends lost his wife| a few months ago. She had a can cer. The other day he told me that he had been Inspired by that tragedy to investigate the whole subject of! cancer, and .was surprised to find, that nothing that could properly be called scientific research by modern J methods had been undertaken, into either Ahe cause or the possible cure of this most dreadful of all diseases, | My friend is a man of scientific training, familiar with the methods of the great research laboratories. "I am sure," he said, "that with three or four million dollars avail- ( able, with which to hire competent! chemists, biologists and pathologists, any of the big industrial laborato ries could find the cause of cancer and a cure for it, in a few years." It is easier to get money with which to do research that is expect ed to result in more money, than 1t is when nothing more important than human lives is involved. BLOOD?four types The transfusion of blood from one person to another has become such an established method of treatment in various conditions that every im portant hospital has a list of "blood donors." There are men or women who are willing to part with a pint or more of blood for a fee of $25 or Medical men learned through this work of blood transfusion that there are four distinct types of human blood, and that it is necessary to be sure that the donor's blood Is of the same type as that of the pa tient. These four types are known | as "O", "A", "B", and "AB." The tests for these blood types are so positive that recent examina tions of the muscle tissue of Egypt ian mummies,-who have been dead for several thousand years, prove that these Inhabitants of the Nile country in the time of the Pharaohs were all of a single blood type, the "B" standard. Men of science are beginning to think it likely that there are four original races of human beings, whose blood types persist in their descendants. Nobody, or only comparatively few of the earth's in habitants, is of unmixed racial strain. But, the blood type will tell which strain is dominant in any given In dividual. o Sunday School By Rev. Charles E. Dunn ASA RELIES ON GOD Lesson for July 8th: 2 Chronicles . Oolden Text: Hebrews 13:8 Asawas the third king of Judah after the disastrous disruption that had split in two the mighty com monwealth of Solomon. He was p resourceful military leader for- 1ft won a smashing victory oyer a great aqny that advanced upon"hlnTTr?m Egypt, He also played the treach erous game pf diplomacy. His rival Baasha. king of Israel, launched a heavy offensive against Judah, for tifying Ratnah. only six miles north of Jerusalem. Asa. In despair, sent the Temple treasures of gold and sil ver to Benhadad. the Syr^n king, ts a bribe to secure his Intervention. But Asa's primary claim to our consideration Is his religious zeal President's Son Drives Ford V-8 Like many another man who tovea the open air, Jamea Roosevelt, Boston' business man and son of the President, favors motor cars of the sport type. Mr. Roosevelt is pictured above with his Ford V-8 de luxe phaeton. The top is down and the car is ready for a run through the New England countryside, now beautiful In the first warm days of spring. Mr. Roosevelt not only drives his Ford V-8 de luxe phaeton, but also owns a Ford V-& cabriolet, which can be'cTosed In when the ^weather is inclement. He mMe a sincere effort to abolish, heathen abominations ,and especial ly the prostitutes found in associa tion with every Canaanite temple. He even did not hesitate to-Repose his queen-mother, guilty of idolatry, from her influential position in the court "And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the Lord his God." Such reliance upon God is not characteristic of our own time. The typical modern cherishes the incred ible doctrine that man .not God, Is! the mainspring of the world. He has fallen Into the habit of supposing that there is nothing beyond him self. This philosophy is called hu manism. At its best it idealizes the powers of man, and calls for their full cultivation. At its worst it de fies man, making him the equal of, God. There are many indications, how ever,-that humanism is on the wane. It is proving to be, as Dr.'Fosdick predicted, "a tentative make shift."; The ignoring of God on the part of the humanisms, and their consequent refusal to come to grips with the i great central mysteries of life and death, is an arrogant pose. Thought ful people are aware of the shallow-! ness of such teaching. And so, like Short Sermons By J. B. Currin I "SHOW US THE FATHER" [ Jesus had been telling the dis ciples not to be troubled by his going away, assuring them that there \vas plenty of room In his Father's house, and that when he had pre 'pared it he would return and take them there to live with him. j In the midst of the conversation Philip spoke up and said, "Show us the Father and it suffloeth us." How many have experienced the same de sire! If only we could see some special manifestation of God or look into his face! But would some manifestation or vision help us as we sometimes feel tha that would? Would doubts and fears be displaced by faith and as surance? 1 The experience of John the Bap tist should throw some light on this question. When he baptised Jesus he saw the Holy Spirit descend in the form of a dove and rest oa him. He also heard a voice, from heaven saying, "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased." Moreover the descent of the Spirit had been 'given him beforehand as a sign by which he was to know the Christ. Nevertheless, later when he had been imprisoned by Herod doubt seems to have beclouded his life, and we find him sending two of his disciples to Jesus with this ques tion, "Art thou he that should come or look we for another?" This is not what We would have expected from one who had seen the Holy Spirit and heard the Father's voloe. The Lord did not send him a di rect Yes or No as he might have done. He told them, "go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: The bllnd'receive their sight, the lame walk, and the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have~lhe gospel preached to them." It seems that he"w&s im plying that John should recognize God in such work as that. So when Phillip asked that he show them the Father he replied "He that hath seen me hath seen the Father." His life and work con stituted a manifestation of God. In a lesser degree he is to be seen today in the lives of his people. If we would see him let us not spend time longing for miraculous mani festations but look for love, good will, and good works in the lives of his people. o The shiny appearance of a suit of ] men's clothing can be removed by I rubbing the material with a piece of fine black emery paper. Emery pa per can be bought at any hardware store for a few cents. Asa of old, they are turning once again to God. Very Much Improved After Taking Cardui "I have suffered a great deal from cramping," writes Mrs. W. A. Sewell, Sr., of Waco, Texas. "I would chill apd have to go to bed for about three days at a time. I would have a dull, tired, sleepy feeling. A friend told me to try Cardui, thinking it would help me ? and it did. I am very much im proved and do not spend the time in bed. I certainly can recommend Cardui to other sufferers." Thousands of women testify Cardui benefited them. If it does not benefit TOD, consult a physician. FORMER CLUB MEMBER WINS NATIONAL PRIZE North Carolina 4-H club leaders are proud of Miss Mildred Ives, former Pasquotank county club girl , who was recently awarded a fellow ship from the Payne Foundation which provides $1,000 for nine month's study in Washington under the Department of Agriculture. Only two fellowships are award ed each year, one to a boy and one to a girl. Miss Ives was picked as the outstanding former 4-H club girl in_40 states. 1 She joined the Central club in Pasquotank county and took an1 ac tive part in projects for more than 10 years. During her later years she earned money to clothe herself end also saved $600 toward payment of her college expenses. . All this was accomplished while she was looking after the home dur ing a long period when her; mother was ill. She also kept up with her school work and made good grades. While a club member she was vice president of the State Federation of 4-H clubs in 1928 and at the same time leader of the Central club. She served as; president of the Pasquo talk county council of 4-H clubs, secretary of the girls' council of home demonstration clubs and also as president of girls' home demon stration club work. She was group captain for the state course for club leaders. In 1930 she repre sented North Carolina at the Inte; national Leaders Training School Massachusetts. She won many prizes and honors with her club porjects, and was awarded four trips to the state short courses, one with a scholarship. Last Summer she was emergency home demonstration agent in Ber tie county and will hold a similar position this summer in Hyde. She has been home economics teacher at the Colerain High School in Bertie county two years. e m After washing white corduroy in warm soapy water until clean, let it soak in soapy water for half an hour. Then rinse it in clean water, changing the water at least three time and rinsing again in blueing water, cold. After that, don't wring or squeeze the corduroy, but hang it, dripping, to dry in the open air. Do not iron it.
