Wilmington has ;one and done it?has a regular rural white way leading into the city. In the November issue of Public Service appeared a story of the agitaion in progress for a rural whit? way I onnecting Greensboro and High Point. That agitation has by no neans died down; in fact, there are some very pretentious plans under onsideratiou. It is coming some day, iust as sure as a gun's iron?as Tenlyson or Charlie t'haplin or somebody emarked. \ Rut Wilmington has stepped out md ahead with two miles and a half :>f genuine, honest-to-goodness eleoLrically-lighted highway. There is a stretch of North Carolina State Highway No. 20, a causeway it is, which spans the distance between the Cape Fear and the Brunswick rivers. It is along aout there Lhat the highway enters the city of Wilmington, that city which has alronrlv a/1 *? wAmnn mnvnr anH affll Vina Louis Moore to its credit. The system installed along the road in question cohsists of General Electric highway lighting units provided with 200-candle power lamps which are spaced 500 feet apart and suspended 30 feet above the road bed.

There she began her life work of lulling in organization of community life around the rural school. Later as a member of the state department of education she was for seven years county school organizer and supervisor of schools for adult be ginners. At the same time she was president of the North Carolina Education Association. Becoming interested in the cooperative movement, s}ie has worked side by side with its leaders in her state and has watched North Carolina's progress from being the thirty-fifth of the states in agricultural power, to its present fourth or fifth place, due to its advance in education, better roads and more progressive methods of farming. Miss Kelly, in her present position as educational agent for the Tobacco-growers Cooperative association, is still carrying on her task of (making life fuller and richer for those i about her. ^ . The reflectors are so designed that ! virtually the entire illumination is rei directed in two beams parallel with, and lighting only the surface of the roadway. In addition to providing an illuminated way for the traveler, the even distribution of the highway lights tend to reduce the comparative brilliance and glare of automobile headlights. Let not the scoffers at progress dwell over-much on the fact that this new rural white way is only two and a half miles long. Mayhap some of those very scoffers will yet traverse ten times, yes, a hundred times that distance of comfortably lighted roadway in this good old North State. It usually takes small beginning to produce the really big things in this world. It's a beginning. Wilmington is proud of her achievement, and well she maybe. Of course the Tide Water Power Company is somewhat mixed up in this enterprising development?not much that is much around Wilmington, in fact, in which the Tide Water is not interested. . , * { * $ + > < ++ ! { + * : > : ?; : I w. f . little !

THURSDAY, APRIL 8, 1928 Jo_ Registered When Lost Goose Returned The flock bore eastward high over the Columbia?save for a single bird that must have passed above the gun ner ere lie fired. This goose drove to the west above and along the river, and at every wing stroke the distance between bird and flock widened. They faded from sight. The call of the lost goose, the voice of the flock, merged gradually Into silence, shading away until one heard only the ceaseless whisper of the current. Presently, far to the west, the call came faintly forth again and grew in volume. The lost goose was described as a frantic hurrying speck, tacking hither and thither. His cry was rapidly repeated, which is not the habit of Canadas, and beyond all misunderstanding it was not enly plaintive but perturbed. At a quarter mile in the air he drove past, seeking far to eastward, only to retrace his course, constantly calling, and to retrace It time and again. He heard them a full minute before we did. for on the Instant his crv was Joyous and confident and his flight to the east took a determined and resolute di reel Ion. And then, distant as a dream, faint and far, we caught the bugles of the returning flock. Were they, too, searching? Rut surely there was elation In their quickened clamor when the lost one literally hurled himself among them, and took his rightful place. They rose to the flight lane. The V Kjpk shape, and southward they drifted, southward. Wild geese! Filial Devotion That Dared Tyrant's Rage Margaret More was the daughter of Sir Thomas More, lord chancellor of Henry VTlI, the bigamous monarch. At the time of the Reformation and the king's divorce fft?d ' subsequent marriage with Anna Boleyn, Henry demanded that More, an ardent Catholic. should give his assent to the marriage, which Sir Thomas refused on principle and law. He was committed to the Tower and beheaded gnd Ms head stuck upon a pike and exhibited on London bridge. Margaret, bis beloved daughter, undaunted by fear or danger, had a trusty servant row her at nightfall to the bridge. She kept the boat steady in the current while the servant climbed to the pier, loosened the precious head of her father and droppgfl It Into the lap of his devoted daughter. She huried the head In the garden of the house in Chelsea, and with no realization of the heroism of her act. she became the mainstay of the afflicted family.? Advertiser Magazine. Men of Great Strength It Is difficult to compare strong men. Each has his pwn special tests, at which he Is superior to the rest. A recent newspaper article stated that unquestionably the strongest man of modern times was Louis Cyr of Canada, who was considerably stronger thun Sandow. Breltbart, who died in October, 192S, is aald bo have come nearer emulating 8andow than any of the letter's many Imitators. Certain strong men excelled Sandow In specific | feats. For Instance, Arthur Saxon was the best lifter of weights ever produced. Steinbach, Inch, Ashton, Travis, Kolaudow and Lurich each had some unusual performance to bis credit Forces That Control The tone of society Is the result not o much of the deliberate attempt ofthe members of It to Influence each other, as of the unconscious action and reaction of their characters.
