The Selma Graded School bought a j
Liberty Bond last week. We are all ;
very proud to say that we are doing
something to help win the war. This
idea originated with the eleventh
grade. They are to take the lead in
getting money for this bond. Here are
a few rensons why we should buy a
Liberty Bond: First, the government
has got to have money to equip the
soldiers that are fighting. Second, if
the government can't get the neces
sary money to give the soldiers the
things that are necessary to keep them
;n fighting condition, they will have to
raise the money by taxes, which no one
can escape. If your money is given
for Liberty Bonds, you will get the j
money back and also 4 per cent inter- j
est, but if it is paid into taxes, the
money will never come back. Third,
('ermany has raised money by Liberty
Bonds and has found it a success.
If all the people respond to- this of
fer, it will be a success with us.
Fourth, it shows a patriotic spirit. We
cannot all te Red Cross nurses nor
can we go to the front, but we can
all do our bit by buying a Liberty
Bond. The burden of this war is heavy
and should be borne by all and not a
few. We can all help bear this bur
den by buying a Liberty Bond. The
Selma School is proud that she has
done her bit. ? L. R. S.
Friday morning, October 26, the
chapel exercises were very interesting.
After Mr. Moser had made a few re
marks to the school, the third and
fourth grades gave an interesting pro
gram. The program began with a
play "The Water Lily." This repre
sented how the first water lily grew.
A dialogue was next given by four
children, each one telling what he
would do if he were a sunbeam. A
song, "The Swing", sung by ten girls
in swinging time concluded the pro
gram. The school appreciated and en
joyed the program very much. This
was not only interesting, but it is a
great benefit to these children in years
to come who are being trained to ap
proach before the public with ease.

Miss Hand had charge of the chapel
exercises Friday morning. It was a pa
triotic program, and was good, indeed.
The program was as follows: Recita
tion by sixth grade, on Our Flag.
Recitation by Marie Godwin. A song
by sixth grade ? "My Own United
States." This program was splendid
and much enjoyed by all. It mode us
feel very good to see such honor done
to our flag. We closed the chapel ex
ercises with the singing of several pa
triotic songs. We hope to have Miss
Hand again very soon to take charge,
of the program. ? G. F.

A LOSS OF FEED.
How Lict and Worms Cut the l'ork }
Profits. ! i
Some time ago I visited a certain
f. ed lot and discovered a very evi- 1
a n loss of feed due to an ail too
c m .'."n cause. It was in lis v fall of
..e year and the owner had just com
menced the feeding of a fine bunch of
pigs on new corn. The little fellows
had the promise of big bone and the
broad lengthy conformation that make
for profitable feeders. In this respect
they were certainly fine and all of |
near the same size and weight to
start with but there seemed to be
something wrong somewhere. Their
hair was off color and stood out in lit
tle ragged tufts as though frequently j
disturbed by rubbing against a post.
Some of the pigs were slightly drawn
and seemed rather st iff on their legs.
"What's the matter with those
pigs?" I asked the owner, "you've got
a fine looking bunch of feeders hut
there's something wrong with them."
"Nothing wrong that I know of,"
responded the owner, "they've been
running loose on pasture all summer
and have't had any corn to speak of
and I suppose that must be the reason
they do not look as good as they
might."
During the short conversation I
had been looking more closely at a few
of the pigs. I had discovered some
thing, and drew the owner's attention
to it. I took hold of his arm in a
friendly sort of way and pointed to a
number of montrous hog lice crawl
ing over the backs of some of the near
shoats. "That's what's the matter
with your pigs," I remarked.
The young fellow had been feeding |
his pigs before it was light in the
morning and after it was dark at
night due to the great pressure of |
his other fall work. Really he hadn't
time to tak ' any particular notice. |
His hog oiler had gotten out of com
mission early in the summer and he
had just been too busy to fix it. Thus
the pigs and lice had almost grown
tip together.
Lice arc the sure enemy to profits
on the hog at all seasons of the year.
They crawl over the body and bite
him after night till he cannot sleep.
They scurry through his bristles by
day till he cannot forage his living.
The bite is poisonous and gradually
saps away the vitality of the most
thrifty looking shoat in the face of
heavy feeding. This poison acts upon
the nervous system of the hog just as
it would on a human being and he be
comes nervous and irritable. A good
hog oiler with a good supply of ojl
will kill the lice and mites and soothe
that itching irritation that destroys
all the foundation for profits.
Worms are another source of great
loss in the hog lots. There are sever
al commercial worm killers on the
market but there is a cheaper reme
dy if we will only use it. A little
turpentine mixed with a good bucket
slop once a week will clean out the
worms in great shape. Just a tea
spoonful or two will do the work ?
just enough so the hog will not go
back on drinking the liquid to the last
drop. Lice and worms are two very
unprofitable factors in the hog lot
and the two together we suspect have
caused more cholera scares than all
the other things put together. They
undermine the constitution and so
weaken it that the animal falls an easy
prey to whatever disease coihes along.
? Oliver Heck, in Indiana Farmer.
Sugar Shortage and High Prices.
Sampson Democrat.
If it was right to raise the price if
sugar to twelve or fifteen cents a
pound because there was a scarcity
it would have been right to raise it to
forty cents. We are told that there
was a good profit in sugar at eleven
cents last week. If so, it will be so
whenever there is any cugar ir> town,
for the wholesale prices have baen de
termined by the National Food Com- '
mission. And listen! If it had not
been for the prompt action of thi*
Commission in rushing part of the now
crop of Louisiana sugar to the refin
eries, we would do without sug \r sev
eral weeks.
Mr. Hoover gave warning some time
ago that sugar must be conserved >*r
there would be a shortage; the people
failed to observe his warning, the
shortage came on schedule, but
through Mr. Hoover's prompt accion i
he has saved the people, in some meas
ure, from the results of their own I
short-sightedness. Henceforth, there
should be a more willing consent to
his using the power conferred on him
by law, and those merchants who seek
to profiteer from the manipulation ef i
the market may find themselves re- .
fused an opportunity to buy at all, 1
and in communities where there is a i
manifestly extravagant use of the ar- i
tide, the amount that can be s<*nt int.-* ]
the community may be limited. On the *
whole, then, it would seem better f?*T '
us all to give the Nation p. squ-ire dca' 1
in the matter of food.
Look out for the aeroplane at the
Fair today and tomorrow.

is much as ninety per cen; on the
seven monthly tests there is no fin:*!

The motto spirit has caught t'.ie
school. Cards are being prepared
>n school mottoes. The following rre
tome of the mottoes:
"Our Flag," "Our State," "Our
Corn"," and "Our Mosquito."
Our Principal visits some teacher
in her room on test day. He was with
Miss Bridges this time. He reports
Lhat Miss Bridges is well prepared to
receive the second section of fifth
and sixth grade pupils who have
been assisting in housing the crop*;
:*nd will soon be in school. He re
ports that the quantity of work cov
ered is fully enough, but insists on
;? more intense effort at thorough
ness. All the adopted books were in
use, order was splendid, and appli
cation to the work was earnest.
A health survey is being taken.
This covers all health conditions.
Kach pupil is being questioned. When
the enrollment is complete, the re
sults in figures will be published.
Friends of the school were glad to
read in the November number of |
North Carolina Education of the en
dorsement of the work being attempt
ed by our Principal when he combin
ed the Reading Circle Work, tho
Community Club Work, and the Lit
erary Society Work in one workable
organization. Incidentally Professor
Pope has had a number of inquiries
from Principals and County Superin
tendents about the success of the ven
ture; '
Wo are learning more about tiie
use of our library since it has been ^
indexed anew. References, and we
have many, are not so hard to find.
We notice very few books that can
be. used in the Primary Grades. Very
little material is also found pertain
ing to Short Story work. There are
in all one hundred and seventy-five
books.
The society under the direction t?i
a committee is preparing to present
the play, Aunt Dina's Quilting Par
ty, some time about Thanksgiving
The rehearsals are going on regular
ly and are attended with much en
thusiasm.
Under the head of Community 1
Club Work we have to report that 1
at the invitation of the Franklin 1
Literary Society the Christian Sun
day School held a Halloween Party
at the school building, Friday night.
Weird v/cre the lights, haunty were
the talcs, and tasty were the edibles
enjoyed by the children.

ual hospitality wljich characteriz i
such gatherings in the rur:.l districts.
There were some changcs made un
the executive committee. The newly
elected committee is as follows: Rev.
John E. Lanier, chairman; J. T. Holt, ,
J. B. Creech, J. F. Pool and J. L. Hall.
Mr. J. M. Beaty who has been chair

since the organization at Selma four
teen years ago, declined a re-election.
The Association accepted his decision
with reluctance and elecfed him on
honorary member of the committee.
The next session of the Association
will be held at Bethesda church on
Wednesday after the fourth Sunday in
next October.
A resolution was introduced in the
Association changing the time of
meeting from Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday to Friday, Saturday and
Sunday. After a full and free discus
sion the matter was postponed for def

When Housework Drags
Keeping house is hard enough
when well. The woman who has a
had back, blue, nervous spells, and
dizzy headaches, has a hard lot, for
the family tasks never let up.
Probably it's the result of kidney
trouble and not the much-feared
"woman's weakness." Strengthen
the kidneys with Doan's Kidney
Pills. They are as harmless as they
are effective and may be used for
children with weak kidneys, too.

Why I Believe
in Nuxated Iron
A Strength-Builder for the Nation
By E. Sr.uer, M l).
P*i>l>ably no remedy has ever met with
Mich phenomenal success as has Nux
ated Iron. It Is conservatively estimat
ed that over three million people annual
ly are taking It in this country alone.
It has been highly endorsed and used by
former United States Senators and Mem
bers of Congress; Physicians who have
been connected with well-known hos
pttala have prescribed and recommended
It; M oiise ii; ue ur Nannlnl, a prominent
Catholic ClergymaV recommends it to
all members of tbc Catholic Church.
Former Health Commissioner \Vm. K.
Kerr, of Chicago, says it ought to bo
used in every hospital and prescribed by
every physician. Sarah Bernhardt ?
"the Divine Sarah." the world's most
noted actress ? has ordered a largo quan
tity s< lit to tho French soldiers to help
give them strength, power and endur
ance.
Dr. A. J. Newman, late Police Sur
feon of the City of Chicago, and former
Kutse Surgeon, Jefferson Park Hospital,
Chicago, says Nuxated Iron has proven
t -trough his own tests of It to excel any
preparation he has ever used for creat
ing red blood, building up the nerves,
strengthening the muscles and correct
ing digestive disorders.
Dr. N. H. Hornstlne, for ten years
Physician In the Department of Public
Health and Charities of Philadelphia,
says that tests made with Nuxated Iron
on a number of stubborn cases where
other tonics had failed absolutely con
vinced him pf Its remarkable and un
usual power.
If you are not strong or well, you owe
It to yourself to make tho following
test: See how long you can work or how
far you can walk without becoming
tired. Next take two tlve-graln tablets
of Nuxated Iron three times per dav
after meals for two weeks. Tnen test
your strength again and see how much
you have gained.
