Commissioner of Insurance James R
Young is sending out.
The batch of 10 Christmas pardons
announced by the govenor with an in
timation that there may be a few more
before Christmas day are as follows:
H. C. Williams, Mecklenburg coun
ty. served since 1914 on an eight
year sentence for manslaughter. A
typical case of too much liquor, the
governor says, the killing having been
in a drunken quarrel. Hh has a
wife and Ave children and has made
a good prison record.
J. Adam Hartsell, Stanly county,
serving since 191S on a 10 years' sen
tence for second degree murder. Mit
igating circumstances about the kill-!
Ing and poor health and good prison
record of the prisoner along with ad
vanced age are cited.
Tommle Carr, Wake county, serving
since 1910 oh a 10 years' sentence for
manslaughter; was only 15 years old
when sentenced, has made a fine pris
on record and was discovered by the
governor recently while hunting rab
bits on the state farm where he had
gone for a visit and Inspection. -
Henry Pope, Franklin county, serv
ing since 1909 on a 12 years' sentence
for manslaughter. Was 19 years old
when sentenced, and has made a model
prisoner, the killing being in an ordi
nary fight over a crap game.
* Charles Logan. Buncombe county,
served since 1914 on a five years' sen
tence to the roads for housebreaking
and larceny. Pardon urged by all
county officers and others on fine pris
on record.
Ben Haiel, Guilford county, served
since 1910 on a 30 years' sentence for
murder. He Is a 70-year4old negro
with a good prison record Pardon was
urged by a great many people famil
iar with the case.
Enoch and Frank Pope, Sampson
county, served since 1909 on 10 and
12 year sentences for manslaughter.
Pardoned at the urgent request of
many citizens familiar with the case.
Lonnle Mooring, Robeson conuty,
serving since 1911 on a 12 years' sen
tence for manslaughter. Court offi
cers and others urge the pardon and
that the killing was in a heated pas
sion under great provocation and with
mitigating circumstances.
Bob Alexander, Cabarrus county,
serving since 1913 on a si* years' sen
tence for manslaughter. Pardoned on
recommendation of court and county
officers, particularly for the fine prison
record of the prisoner.
John Thomas, Durham county,
serving since 1907 on a 15 years' sen
tence for assault with lnt«yit to com
mit crime. Excellent prison record
and chief of police and others urge
that there is doubt if the crime was
really committed as charged In the
trial and conviction.
The other pardon is for William
Lasslter, Northampton county, serv
ing since 1915 on a four years' sen
tence for robbery. A reasonable doubt
that the prisoner was really the one
who committed the crime through evi
dence that has developed since the
trial constrains the governor to grant
the pardon. *
Governor Bickett announced two
additional Christmas pardons. The
most notable Is that for Matthew Mc-
Bane, serving since 1911 on an 11-year
sentance to the roads In Wilson county
since 1911. His crime was carrying
concealed weapon, assault with deadly
weapon, and robbery. He wrote the
governor an appealing letter that the
governor declares had a "genuine
ring," and the sheriff of the county
wrote the governor that after reading
the letter and knowing the man he
would grant the pardon "as quickly as
he could write his name "
North Carolina Crop Report.
Raleigh. N. C. —The North Carolina
office of the Bureau of Crop Estimates
of the United States Department Of
| Agriculture has made public the fol
j lowing figures pertaining to the crop
for this state. The figures compiled
by this office, are based on those an
nounced by the federal office at Wash
ington for December 1 conditions
The Wheat Crop..
The forecast for North Carolina of
fall sown wheat is estimated by the
Washington office at 1,180.000 acres,
compared with 1,025.000 acres last
year. This is 15 per cent Increase.
The crop's condition is 91 per cent o'
a full (normal) crop, compared tftth
89 a year ago, and 91 the ten year
average.
The Rye Crop. *
The estimate for the state is 91.000
acres, compared with 86,000 acres last
year. The condition December 1 was
93 per cent of a normal (full) crop
growth, compared with 91 a year ago
and 92 the ten year average. Less
than one-fourth of all rye acreage is
harvested for grain, and the percent
age grown for grain is increased dui>
to high priced seed and food crops
Apples.
The proportion of this year's apple
crop shipped from the apple producing
counties is estimated at 29 per cent
of the total crop produced In the
counties west of line from Mecklen
burg to Stokek East of the Blue
Ridge Mountaius the i-rop was fairly
good, but westward It was quite short.
The prices received" caused a greater
percentage td be shipped than usual
Firewood.
The estimate of the average amount
of firewood burned per farm in tills
state in a year is 18 cords Tills in
eludes the quantity used by an average
farmer and one tenant family. The
value of this wood is averaged at $2 80
per cord, which is supposed to lie the
value to the farmer, allowing for
stumpage. cutting and hauling The
value varies according to locality,
from SI.OO to $5.00 per cord.
The Soy Bean Crop.
The state acreage of soy beans was
greatly increased since last year, es
pecially in the Piedmont counties. The
crop made only" 70 per cent of a full
growth and yield per acre The
Coahtal counties showed lowest condi
Hons ,
The Peanut Crop.
The Eastern Carolina peanut acre
age was less than last year, partly due
to the decreased plantings of Spanish
varieties It is estimated that 84 per
cent of the crop in the commercial pro
during counties, WHS threshed
The Pecan Crop.
There are few commercial orchards
of pecans in this state Most of the
trees planted are scattered in groups
of from 2 to 20 trees. Four-fifths of
all trees are seedlings. There Is less
than 30 per cent of a full crop of nuts.
The Cotton Crop.
The December 1 forecasted yield ol
seed cotton for the state was 650
pounds per acre, compared with 640
last year. That of lint cotton was 191
pounds per acre, and last year It was
215 pounds. The estimated produc
tlon for the state Is 570,000 bales, last
year It was 646,000 bales (U. S —ls 10,-
949.000 bales).
November Weather Conditions.
The November weather conditions
were the coldest and dryest since 1910.
Only one-third of the usual precipita
tion occurred and amounts were light
throughout the state. Th« tempera
ture average 3 degrees below normal
The sunshine was about normal
Safety for Old and Young.
A warning for the safety of old peo
ple and little children is contained In
a statement issued by Insurance Com
mlssloner James R. Young.
"I believe it is timely." the commls
sioner says, "to warn the citizens of
the State of the necessity for especial
care, during the severe cold weather,
in looking out for the safety of thoso
who are unable to properly take care
of themselves. During very cold
weather little children are generally
kept closely In the house. Where
there are open fires they are con
stantly in danger when every means
of protection Is not provided. Where
stoves and heaters are used, when the
extreme cold calls for very hot fires,
a child's dress against a stove red
hot may cost the child's life. A fire
screen costs only a few dimes and
may save untold suffering and sorrow.
The screen Is the safest plan but
where screen are not available strict
care should be taken to see that a
child is never left alone In a room
with an unprotected fire. Infants
sleeping in carriages or cribs have
been burned to death by a coal, pop
ping from a fire. A screen would pre
vent this.
"Old people frequently fall into an
open fire or against a hot stove witn
fatal results. Every winter numbers
of cases are recorded of deaths of old
people from this cause. A fire screen
will prayent a report like this coming
trom your home. A little forethought
and care Is all that is needed. 'Safety
| First is Man's Humanity to Man'."
The farmer with a good wood lot can
serve his country and his pocketbook
as well this winter by cutting and
selling wood as he can next summer
by growing foodstuffs.

Employers of labor may well give
consideration to Henry Page's sugges
tion that men be fired out from all

will be for the country and for the

How many people realize that the
I familiar mortgage of today has been
i handed down to us from generation to
I generation in practically unchanged
i form since the time of ancient Baby
lon?
j Yet this Is n fact. The mortgage Is
j one of those few things which has sur
[ vlved through the long centuries —
| meeting the needs of Bel Bullltsu and
Sha Nubu Shu. Babylonian agricul
turists, and John Jones, the modern
American farmer.
This interesting discovery was made
I when the Archaeological expedition of
1 the University of Pennsylvania dug up,
| In the ruins of the ancient city of Nip
j pur, Babylon, a mortgage dated 4110 B.
; C.. more than 2,3(M) years ago.
The following Is an accurate trans
j latlon of the Inscription on the brick
I made by a noted Assyrlologist of Chi
! cago:
"Thirty bushels of dates are clue to
j Bel Naclin Shun, son of Marashu, by
I Bel Bullltsu and Shu Nairn Shu, sons
|of Klrebtl, and their tenants. In the
H month of Tushri (month of harvest) of
the 34th year of Kihg Artnxerxes I,
thev shall pav the dates, thirty bushels,

! cultivated and uncultlvlited
| fief estate Is held as u pledge for the
! dates;- namely, thirty liushels, by Bel
j Nadln Shun. Another creditor shall
not have power over It."
The mortgage is the most ancient
form of Investment, the first known
; mortgage having been used by the
j Babylonians about 2,KK) years B. C.
It will lie noted that llie document,
! which is trust deed and note in one, Is
a llrst mortgage, as shown by the final
j sentence; "Another creditor shall not

'l 4 lie ancient world, too, had Its "cap
tains of Industry and "finance," and
the story of their struggles for success
Is every bit as inspiring as modern
"business romances." Then, as now,
difficulties of humble birth and caste
meant nothing to the determined, able
man.
There was a slave In ancient Greece
who rose to be the greutest banker of
his time. His name, Paslon, is con
stantly mentioned In documents and
other records. While the extent of
his business was then considered enor
mous, toduy we dismiss it us Inconse
quential. . Puslon is sulci to huve fiVld
j 513,405 on deposit from customers, to
have loaned st>o,93S and to have owned
land worth $24,375. ills income was
$2,U00 a year.
ills deposits and loans sppeur small
in comparison with modern figures, but
the rute of Interest customarily
charged does not—36 per cent.
Banking In Oreece originally con
sisted of changing money for foreign
ers. Later, the Greeks commenced
allowing Interest on deposits. Dem
osthenes Is said to have kept a bunk
ing account.
Greek bankers were ulso notaries
t.nd witnessed contracts between oth
ers, They were familiar with letters
of credit and invented a form of en
dorsement.. As an example of this, we
read that one Iceratus drew. In Ath
ens, a bill on his father In Pontus,
which was guaranteed by Paslon and
then purchased by Stratocles. In
Oreece the banks were located In the
temples and the latter were eften used
as national treasuries.
They had an instrument correspond
ing to our check. They started the
practice ,of "discounts"—that, Is de
ducting the Interest at the time of
making the loan. ,
The Greeks appear to have Intro
duced banking In Italy. The Roman
bankers soon became very important
and Roman comedies contain many al
lusions to them. These were not ai
rways of a complimentary nature, but
it is a fact that banking in Rome stood
high as a profession. All money trans
actions among Romans were carried
on through bankers and account books
of customers were kept.
In 352 B. C. the senate appointed
persons to lend u portion of. public
funds, on security, to the Plebians.
The Romans were even more prone
than the Greeks high Inter
est rates. They sometimes reached 50
per cent -
Later the rate was fixed by law and
In Cicero's time the legal amount was
12 per cent. In the law passed under
Emperor Justinian, 528 A. D., the rate
was Axed at 4 per cent for notables,
jk • -T". • '
' of the debt Is provided, Just as oat
I modern mortgages or mortgage bond#
state that plriniipnl and Interest art
"payable at the Tenth Trust C 0.," or
i some other bunk.
The amount of Interest Is not stated,
; but on nil document* of this sort a
legal rate of Interest was customary,
which ranged In times of pence from
12 to 20 per eeut and In times of war
; to utmost any amount.
The note matured In the month of
. harvest, exactly as American farmers,
getting loans from their banks, have
their notes mature In October ami No
vember.
Notice the words "son of Mnrnshu"
In the übove document. Murashu SOns
were a great firm of hankers In the
Babylonian city of Nippur. They made
loans of nil kinds and often were called
upon to help the King of Babylon with
money.
This mortgage, together with many
other records of the flrtu of Murashu
Sons, was discovered In ISM. The
' story of Its discovery Is one of great
| Interest. '
The Itubylonlans were the Ameri
cans of antiquity. They were a na»
Hon of business men. Their mort
gages, notes, deeds, wills and other
documents were drawn with great care
and nloug the same principles as the
similar Instruments we use today.
Lawyers did a flourishing business in
Babylon, as these people were fond of
going to law and made all transfers
lof property a matter of record. Not
only dlil .they Invent mortgages, but
leases also.
One interesting lease demised a field
and pond for the term of a year.
Tht lessee made n first payment of one
talent of silver and In arlillon, as
ground rent, agreed to furnish the
lessor wllh a mess of ti»b for Ills fam
ily table every day.
Another lease transferred a piece of
Improved property for sixty days, ilie
ground rent being paid In advance and
the Jenant being guaranteed against all
claims of whatever nature.
All these documents were Inscribed
on lirli.'ks made of clay by means of a
wedge shaped instrument, the various
combinations of wedges making up the
alphabet. These wedges have given
the name lo this particular style of
'writing, which Is called "cuneiform,"
from Hie I.atln 'word "cuneus," a
wedge.
I suppose If the Babylonians had
safety deposit vaults tliey would not
Imve considered It necessary to Insure
the preservation of their records thus.
I 0 per cent on commercial loans and 8
I per cent for loans not under the first
two classifications.
Perhaps the high rate of Interest
mentioned previously was justified
when It- Is considered that the law
gave every' advantage to debtors.
Losses to bankers were frequent and
| the high rate charged was more' as a
j measure of protection. I,'ompey, Bru
ins and C'ato all lent money at BO per
cent.
It is.often assumed that the rate of
interest depends upon the abundance
of gold or silver. This Is not the
; case, as In California and Australia
: the rate of Interest was extremely
high during the height of the gold ac
tivity. In Mohammedan countries in
terest U forbidden In the Koran. But
this has not succeeded In keeping dowu
.rates, as In these countries Lnterest Is
three or four times greater than In
Kurope. In some parts of the Orient
rates have gone as far lis 100 per
cent.
Several centuries before the Chris
tian era a bank of deposit existed In
Byzantium. In IKK) A. I), a bank of
deposit was established In China, al
though some form of banking existed
In that country many centuries be
fore. About 1200 A. I), a bank of
deposit was established In Damascus;
In 1845 one was founded In Geneva;
in 1401 Barcelona started Its first bank
ing depository; the bunk of Amster
dam was founded In l(l*S8; bank of St.
George in 1407 and the bank of Stock
holm In 1008.
One of the earliest banking firms of
which we have any account Is said to
be Eglbl & Co. It was in ancient
Babylon. Evidences of Its existence
were discovered In an earthenware Jar,
In the neighborhood of Illllah, a' few
miles from Babylon. These documents,
recorded on tablets, are now In the
British museum. ICglbl & Co. are be
lieved to have acted; as the national
bank of Babylon, and the founder prob
ably lived in the reign of Sennacherib,
about 700 B. C. Below Is a transla
tion of one of the tablets:
"Loan of Ave mana of silver of
Nabu-zer-lddln, chief, of the dagger
bearers (rab-nas-patrutu), to Belnasir.
The money to be repaid In Installments
of a shekel and a,, half, beginning In
Nlsan.
"15th day of Tebet, 84th year of
Nebuchadnezzar."
Records of this kind were deposited
In the government office.
The Broader Thrift.
Laying aside a few dollars each
week does not necessarily make one a
thrifty person. Thrift means so much
more than merely saving money—lt
means personal efficiency—lt means
plans —It means self--(-ontrol —It means
foresight—lt means prudence—lt
means sane and legitimate self;confi
dence —It means all that makes for
character. It is as much removed
frwin miserliness on the one hand as
It Is from extravagance on the other.
As we build the Ideals of thrift, we
build character.
