However, the regular polling places will be open ffor 30 days, beginning October 5 when &U voters whose names are not on the books, but who are eligible, may be re gistered. .... fhis course was decided upon by tbe County Board of Elections .when it was found that the law requires "that a 20-day notice of the registration be given and that the books be open for four successive Saturdays .before the election and still another Saturday for the purpose of hearing challenges. There would not be enough time for this as the regulation notice could not be given from the time the-"Board of elections met Tuesday of this week. ' Some time ago the State Board of Elections sent out notices stating that anew registration would not be ad visable. It has also been recommend ed by the New Hanover County Demo cratic Executive Committee that a new registration be done away with this year.

Fisher received a long dis tance telephone message this morning, telling him of the sudden death of his mother, Mrs. H. C. Fisher, of Fayette ville. Mr. Fisher .left on the morning train for Fayetteville. The message did not state at what time Mrs, Fisher passed away nor did M say;, that she had been ill for any period. Mr. Fish er was of the opinion that his mother was in her usual health, having receiv ed no information to the contrary until today's message telling of her death, came. Mrs. Fisher suffered a stroke of par alysis some time ago and her health had never been really good since. The presumption among friends here is that the deceased was stricken a sec ond time and that death followed. WANT ADDITIONAL TEACHER Patrons of Winter Park School Will Shortly Ask for Relief. A fourth teacher is almost Impera tive at the Winter Park School, ac cordingjo thrfends and patrons of that institution who recently met and unanimously, voted' th; favor of an ad ditional instructor. ,The; increased en rollment and the fact that the students are widely distributed throughout the seVeraVrtdes is assigned , as the rea son why an additional teacher is need ed, 'the meeting, which was an en thusidsticydnfel 'r ... - . . The' Board of Education will be ask ed to investigate and provide an ad ditional teacher ?at an early date. There are now 122 4 pupils attending the Winter Park 'school and it is strongly'' argued- that at least four teachers are necessary. The recent meeting was presided over by George , C.

One gentleman, who is in close touch with . the water front, stated yesterday . that the bridge, if built, would have to have a much higher elevation and a much wider draw than the first plans called for. He ex plained the fact that the draw is sim ply laid on the abutments and argued that there was too much danger of a steamer jarring it off, adding that it was up'to the owner of the vessel to make good-the loss in such case. This same gentleman explained that the actions of a vessel when in shallow water are very uncertain and declared that this multiplied the dan ger. When there isn't much water to , draw a heavily-laden vessel is prone to draw heavily, while in deep water.,, the same vessel : will rid higher up, he added. The contrari ness of such is a vessel makes it ex tremely hard to prevent it from rub bing against the abutments and shak ing the draw down. .,. And yet those in, favor of a bridge will not give up hope, but will con tinue, their advocacy of a bridge, even if it has to be erected further down or higher up the river. Plans for a new bridge are to be drawn up with in the next few days and these will be admitted to the engineers. Until it is positively known .that no bridge will be erected those advocating 3uch will continue their efforts 'to insure one. Liquid Tar Sbdmpoo For Ladies .

GRIDIRON SEASON WILL OPEN THIS AFTERNOON '. . , - - ' New York. Sept, s 23: Thefootball season of 1916 opened in the east to day' with the usual lack of games be tween the stronger elevens. Interest centers in the Harvard-Colby contest at Cambridge, which Is expected to give some indication as to the quality of the Crimson men. Last year the Maine college managed to score one touchdown on Harvard. Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom ach, lame back, can, instead, both look and feel as fresh as a daisy .always by washing the poisons and toxins - from the body with jmosphated hot water each morning. . : We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate' in it to flush from the stomach, liver, kid neys and ten yards oi bowels the previ ous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxinS; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying; the entire alimentary tract before puting more food into the stomach. ' : The action . of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste rand ; acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast and it is said to be but a little .while until the roses . begin . to . appear in .the cheeks. A Q uarter.r pound iot limestone phos phate will cost very little at the drug store, but. .is, sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with : biliousness cpn. stfpation, stomach trouble or rheuma tism a real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation.
