THE UNIVERSITY SUMMER SCHOOL DIRECTOR WALKER 18 RECEIVING MANY LETTERS FROM PROS- PECTIVE ATTENDANTS. DISPATCHES FROM RALEI6H Doings and Happenings That Mark the Progress of North Csrollna Peo ple, Gathered Around the State Capital. With less than three weeks before the opening of the next session of the University of North Carolina Summer School, great interest and enthusiasm in the work are being manifested. Prospects for this year's opening are exceedingly bright, judging from the number of queries and letters coming to Director N. W. Walker dally con cerning courses of instruction and other matters. Reservations have al ready been made for practically all of the available dormitory space This the thirty-first session of the Summer School, will open June 11 And will con tinue through six weeks, closing July 25 The Summer School catalogue has recently come from the press, and con tains full details of the courses offer ed. members of the faculty, and infor mation concerning special lectures recreational features and the like. More than ever before, the Summer School this year will try to address it self to the task of preparing men and women for special service in this time of war. Certain vocational courses have been introduced, and even the public will focus attention on the prob lems and tasks of. American democ racy. The curriculum will be unusual ly full and interesting In addition to the many courses offered last year, there will be certain new ones, with increased emphasis on war-time topics and problejns. Courses having a more or less direct bearing on the war are those In home vegetable gardening, household chemistry, contemporary United States history, national ideals in British and American literature, military French. stenographers' courses, cooking and sewing, and so cial problems. At the special request of the Food Administration at Wash ington, two special courses In home economics, as outlined by the admin istration, have been Included In the curriculum. The department of edu cation, which Is already recognized as one of the strongest in the South, will add several new courses with the spe cial view of making the teachers of the state more efficient. Dr. Walker, who Is state Inspector of high schools, thinks that all summer schools should be better attended this year than ever before, since many new teachers will be needed next fall to All the vacancies caused by the draft Making State Hospital Bafe. The importance of flre protection for the state Institutions, including colleges and hospitals Is given a new Impetus in North Carolina by reason of the disaster In Columbia, S. C., by ■which the burning of a frame cottage at the Hospital for the Insane of South Carolina took a heavy toll of the lives of the Inmates. Insurance Commis sioner James R. Young has charge of the work of making North Carolina in stitutions safe under the special act and appropriation of the last legisla ture. His efforts are now directed to ward means of retarding the spread of flres in order to give time for those In charge to get the inmates out. The Columbia disaster was in an isolated frame cottage only one story, while many of the North Carolina buildings, anything but fireproof, are two and even three stories. The in stallation of flre walls and flre resist ing shutters are special features of the changes being made for the safety of the inmates so that where flres get such a start that buildings are burned, the spread will be as slow as possible Often in this state, a building with sixty or more inmates at night can have only a couple of attendants on duty. In case of flres, the plan Is for the flre walls and shutters between compartments or sections of the build ing to hold back the flames while the attendants and those rushing to their assistance may have time to get the Inmates to safety and control them in their places of refuge. It seems to have been inability to keep the Insane patients out of the burning cottage that contributed most to the fatalities In Columbia but with less rapidly spreading flames and the clearing of ■ectlons of the buildings and then clos ing the flre shutters as the inmates «re gotten out much of this phase of the danger would also be averted. Go On With Work. "Go on with your remdial work but don't allow any of your construc tive efTorts to lag" was the Injunction of Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles, presi tffent of the General Federation of Women's Club before the North Caro lina Federation in the second night session of its annual cpnvention in italelßh. as she read for the first time publicly the cablegram lust received ky her from Gen. Pershing in France bearing the thanka of the American commander for the expression of loy altv aant to kim bv her Physician* Fined for Violating Law. ' Two physicians of Rockingham -ounty were last week convicted of violating the state quarantine laws, ia that they had not reported cases of contagious diseases treated by them. The matter was investigated by Dr. A. McR. Crouch, state entomologist of the state board of health, these convic tions being the first fruits of an ener getic campaign Just begun by the state board of health to see that the state quarantine laws are rigidly en forced throughout the state. Dr. H. H. Meßride, of Retdsville. at tended a case of diphtheria and one of cerebrospinal meningitis which he failed to report to the coihity quaran tine officer. His only reason was care lessness, pleading guilty to the charges and paying a fine of $1 and the costs. In Graham Dr. Crouch found that Dr. J. W. Taylor had treated two young women suffering from whooping cough. The girls were wo»Ving In a local mill, but became to sick for work and went to their home In the coun try. There they spread the disease among the younger children in their own family as well as among the chil dren of a neighbor. Dr. Taylor was called ot treat one of the younger children, and still failed to make any report of the disease. RaJeigh. Typhoid Death Same as Sulclds. If the average for the past four years Is maintained this year there will be in North Carolina during the month of June more than five hun- dred cases of typhoid fever, and one in each seven of the persons having Uie disease will die. That this record of past years shall not be maintained ie the determination of the state board of health, which Is bendlnx every effort to reduce the typhoid death rate for 1918 materially from the rate of last year. There has been a grati fying reduction for each of the past four years, and the stats board of health has set 500 as the maximum for this year. Working toward this end active anti typhoid campaign# are being waged In a number of counties Typhoid vac cine Is being furnished free by the State Laboratory of Hygiene, and in a number of places la being adminis tered without charge. A number of counties have taken advanced steps In sanitary legislation that will greatly aid in preventing the spread of ths fever germs. A death from typhoid is a useless death, and the realization of this fact is causing wide-spread in terest in the methods of prevention The greatest handicap to the fl*ht agalnat typhoid is the common fly which breeds in filth and carries germs of the disease far and wide. The records show that the disease risea and falls In direct ratio to the fly sea son, reaching; the maximum in August when flies are most plentiful, and fall ing to the minimum in March when the flies have been frozen out through the cold winter months. Files One of Worst Enemies- There Is a dlract relation between the presence of flies and the number of deaths from typhoid fever and a number of other diseases. In the case of Infant diarrhea the number is ai most double among those who arc >x po.?ed to flies as commred with those who are protected. In other words, a baby whose parents do not screen the house and do all possible to keep out flies has just twice as much danger of having "sumer complaint" which each year wipes out so many little lives Primarily the cause of flies is fllth. They cannot exist in thoroughly clean surroundings. A house buzzing with flies is a house that has accumulation of fllth somewhere near it. If the premises of the house itself are clean, then those of a nearby neighbor are pot. Screening, and the use of fly paper and swatters against the few that get through carelessly opened doors, has been proved to be the most effective weapon against flies. Screening is in expensive. Where wire screens can not be purchased a small amount of morquito netting will serve to cover all windows and doors, and a sufficient quantity for the average house can be bough* for a very small sum. If prop erly put In the mosquito net screen ing will last usually two seasons. Three Graduates at Blind School, After hearing words of commenda tlon for their splendid and remarkable record and admonition to continue their progress by always possessing the three golden keys of success — character, culture and energy—three graduates of the State School for the Blind received diplomas as symbols of the mastery of the complete course of instruction offered students of the school. These graduates, who were presented diplomas by Col. Joseph E. Pogue, chairman of the board of direc tors. are Miss Ava Lee Strickland, of Clinton; Miss Mabel Fisher Miller, of Morganton; and Miss Gertrude Ellse Leaser, of Winston-Salem. Avery County's First Factory.

D„ Teacher of English Bible In the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright. 1911. Weatera Ntwipaper Union.) LESSON FOR JUNE 9 JESUS FACEB BETRAYAL AND DENIAL. LESSON TEXT-Mark 14:10-71. GOLDEN TEXT—Watch and pray that ye enter not Into temptation.—Mark 14:38. DEVOTIONAL READINO—John 18:1-17. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL FOR TEACHERS—Matthew 26:20-29; Luka 22:17- 20, John 13:1-35. PRIMARY TOPIC —Jeiua and hla dlacl ples-Mark 14:12-26. JUNIOR TOPlC—Jesua betrayed and de nled. I. Judas' Bargain With the Chief Priests (vv. 10. 11). This blnck crime was committed Immediately following the beautiful net of devotion by Mary. The mo tive actuating Judas was avarice. This awful • depth of Infamy was not reached at n bound. Because he (lid not master this besetting slti at the beginning, he was conquered by It. 11. The Last Passover (vv. 111-25). 1. The preparation (vv. 12-10). In reply to the disciples' Inquiry ns to where they should prepnre the I'nssover for him, Jesus told them to go Into the city where they would meet a man bearing a pitcher of wa ter, whom they should follow. In tin.' house to which they were thus led would he found a guest chamber —a large upper room —where they could make ready the Passover. This Is an example of Christ's superhuman knowledge, lie not only knew that the disciples would meet this man, tint he knew that Judas had bar gained for his betrayal. 2. The betrayal announced (vv. 17* 21). The betrayal wns to be by one of the disciples who was eating with Jesus. This betrayal had been pre dicted, though such prediction did not Interfere with the free act of Judua In the betrayal. It was because of this act of treachery being freely committed by Judas that Jesus pro nounced upon him the awful doom — "Good were It for that man if he had never been born." 8. The bread and the cup Instituted (vv. 22-25). 111. The Disciples' Cowardice Fore told (vv. 20-31). In spite of their cuwurdly tululng from the Saviour, he assures them that after his resurrection lie would go before them Into Galilee. I'eter protested against such act of disloy alty by the disciples, and assured the Lord that though all the rest should forsake hlrii, yet he would not. The Lord showed lilin how little he knew even of bis own best resolve, telling 111 in that on that very night he would deny lilm thrice. All the disciples said the same thing. IV. The Aflony In Gethsemane (vv, 83-11!). The clear vision of the coming anguish of the Cross, accentuated by the uttor failure of the disciples to understand or believe, brought upon lilm mi Indescribable anguish of noil, so lie took l'eter, Jit met), arid John iind went apart to pray. The cup of nfCony wits not mere death, hut the sacrificial death for sin, under the weight of the world's guilt. 1. The first prayer (vv. 3. r )-.'!8). Notwithstanding the darkness of the hour, he pruyed In faith accom panied with a willingness to obey. When he came and found the three sleeping Instead of praying, he com manded them to watch nnd pray so as to he fortified against temptation. V. The Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus (vv. 43-52). 1. The sign to (lie mob (vv. 4.3-47). With the basest of hypocrisy Judas pointed out Jesus to the mob by a kiss, the sign -of love. 2. Jesus forsaken by nil (vv. 48-52). At the sight of the Master's be trayal and arrest, one of his disci ples attempted to defend hint by re sorting to the sword; but seeing that Jesus made no attempt at resistance, they all fled. Their courage failed them In the hour of trial. How little man knows of bis weaknesses until the crucial hour. VI. Jesus Before the Sanhedrin (vv 63-o:i). 1. Contradictory testimony of falsa witnesses (vv. 53-59). High Priest's Questions: (yv. (30 65). (1) "What Is It that these witness against thee?" To this Jesus was silent, showing that no evidence had yet been given wortlky of answer. (2) "Art thou the Christ?" To this he definitely replied: "I am" and quotes a Scripture passage which they recognize as referring to the Messinh. This claim they answer with buffeting and the most shame ful treatment. VII. Peter Denies Lord (vv. (56-72). Though Peter loves Jesus, yet 111 the hour of supreme trial he falls. Grievous as his sin Is, it is not like that of Judas, ills failure was due to ]. Boasting self-defense (vv. 29-34). 2. Lack of watchfulness (v. 37). 3. Neglect of prayer (v. 38). 4. Service in the energy of the flesh (v. 47). 5. Following Jesus afar oft (v. 54). 0. Seek comfort among the Lord's '•neinles (v. 07; comiiart Luke 22:55). 7. Open denial (vv. 68-72). -tils backsliding really began when lie shrunk from tho Cross. MAGIC!
