Kov, ll.'With the election behind them North Carolina leaders In civic affairs are turning the trend of their talk ; to the probable problenis that will confront the general assem bly that is to f meet In January. They conoede that the ratificaUbn of the federal amendment to the consti tution for national prohibition will be a mere formality with little or no op position, and take the view that the really big question will be an adjust ment of the taxing system that will pr2Z 1ie inreased revenue for the state. The assembly will be confronted by a situation that will necessitate consid erably increased revenue to relieve in debtedness of institutions and press ing necessity fbr additional revenue to meet the new conditions.

GERMAN "CIVILIZATION" OF THE LOWEST SORT Nortb American i -dian of . Frontier Days W Highly Civilized in Comparison. "With the American Army in France, Oct. 15. (Correspondence). Compar ed, to: the German soldier of today w'o before the. war was supposed to be civilized, the American Indian of fron tier .days is declared by an American medical officer to have been highly civilized. ' The Indian never pretended to be anything but a savage," said the medi cal officer, "while the Germans have been pretending to be peace loving and human for the past century." Deliberate killing by German troops of Red Cross workers engaged in their work of mercy on the battlefields has aroused the-wrath of American army officers. It is. asserted that all during the Marne battle, the German aviators swept low over field dressing stations, pouring machine gun bullets into the medical units as they tended the wounded and dropping bonds on hos pitals, although the Red Cross in signia was -in plain view. The Hun snipers .picked off Red Cross streach- er bearers as quickly v as. combatant soldiers . "They acted just like cornered rats," declared an American Infantry officer, "except, that .most of them did not have the courage to fight to the death. When, they were surrounded and had no chance,' they would come out of their machine gun nests with tears in their eyes and cries of kamerad. The German soldier in a pleading at titude is the most loathesome and de spicable imaginable."

Reeods in Amount aad Value. (Special Star Correspondence.) -Greenville, Nov. 11. The Greenville market has sold something like 13, 500,000 pounds of tobacco to date, for the season. The market opened last week with block sales. Prices were higher than when it closed in October, and continued to get, higher, every day. Wednesday only two houses gnished sales, while the third lacked much. With this block and that bought in Thursday was a full' all-day sale of hard work to finish. Friday was also an all-day sale. Between 1,250,000 and 1,500,000 were sold these three days at high prices, too. The sales for August and September were' 9,859,596 pounds at an average of $34.88, making the amount paid for this tobacco, $3,436,329.97. The sales for October, the market closed the 10th, were only 2,305,645 pounds, at an average of $35.33, mak ing the amount paid for this tobacco, $874,590.27. Thus the sales to November 1 were 12,165,241 pounds. $4,250,920.24. an av erage of just a little fraction of $35. For the months last season the market sold 16,197,992 pounds for $29.81 aver age. Greenville expects to sell more , to bacco this season than it did last when its sales amounted to near 22, 000,000 pounds. RALEIGH WOOD PRICES.

When "Oh Baby" js unfolded for the first time in this city at the Acad emy, Monday and Tuesday, Nov. 18 and 19 - local amusement lovers will see a tipical American revue at its best. It eptiomizes the spirit t.of the , twentieth century in amusement, as. "Pinafore" did that of a third of .a century ago or minstrelsy before ; that.. In - fact the revue type of entertainment as shown in "Oh , Baby" . is more , intrinsicly American, thain any stage ' offering since Christopher Columbus made his first "stand on this continent. - Like so many of our . institutions the makers' of "Oh" Baby"' have taken the -best of foreign ideas and stirred them up . in a happy emulsion that reeks with hundred per cent enter tainment. Every country of Europe, save of course the outlaws of "the central- empires, , has contributed toward making - "Oh. Baby," truly a melting pot of . novel ideas. There is no plot to retard the action pf "Oh Baby." A rapidly changing series of delightful melodies, scores of bewilderingly beautiful girls bedeck ed in the most gorgeous costumes im aginable, stage pictures of surpassing grandeur, excruciating comedy epi sodes, startling dance novelties, inno vations galore, make "Oh Baby" a ve j litable kaleidescope to the beholder.

Swift & Company, in fifty years of well ordered growth, has become one of the great national' services because it has learned to do something for the" American people which they needed to have done for them, in fhe way in .which they preferred to have it done. 1 3 It has met each successive demand, in the changing conditions of national life, by getting good meat to increasing millions effectively, efficiently, economically, and expeditiously. The Swift & Company packing plants, refrigerator cars, car routes, branch houses, organisation, and person nel of today are the practical solutions, born of practical experience, to the food problems of a half a century. Because of all of these elements working in cor relation and unison, Swift & Company is able to supply more and better meat to more people than would have been possible otherwise, at a net profit per pound of meat so low (a fraction of a cent) that the consumer price is practically unaffected. v Strip away any portion of this vast, smcoth-rraiimg human machine, and you make a large part of the meat supply uncertain, lose the benefit of half a century of fruitful experience, and scatter, the intelligent energies of men who have devoted a life work toward meeting the needs of a nation in one vital field.

All her savings had also gone there to pay his expenses. More money was always needed. Quinn had seen to that, for he had opened1 all of Joe's letters and inserted the demands for money. Now she had to raise money for an operation, and there was only one man from whom she knew that she could get it. That man. was Quinn. He was the ma,ster frame-up guy of the theatre set.
