Tho idea Is, we supposo, to try a Democrat in that job. Mrs. Sterne and the Salvation nrmy will scatter more real Christ mas around this community than anybody else. Are you helping them? The special session has not been without its educational accomplish ments. Crowds of the fellows hnve learned enough to let Superintendent ' Brooks severely alone hereafter. Well, if the remarks of Carson and Craig are helping Collins and Griffith to win In the dail eireann, here's hoping that they may talk continu ously until the thing is put through. Lloyd George, it is now necessary to admit, can control the action of the United States with respect to ?ln economic conference. There is never any telling where tho little Welsh man will bob up next with four aces in his fist. It takes all kinds of people to make a world, but it docs seem that the Alabama man who erected a monu ment to John Wilkes Booth in his front yard might have been left out without nny material damage to the universe. France is pushing tho work of re construction, according to Maurice Casenave; and France will get a great deal more out of. that than she could by devoting her attention to political wrangles,, hard us it may be to make her people believe it. The Japanese and the Chinese agree to discuss Shantung in' the English tongue. The latter is well suited to the nuances of diplomatic interchange, and If tho worst should come to the worst, is plentifully pro vided with cuss words. Woodrow Wilson has written a let ter to an official of the Rainbow di vision veterans' organisation express- iug the pride he feels in being a com rade of the men of the A. fc. I . Come to think about it, it hasn't been de nied that he was commander-in-chief during the war. Haven't his assail' ants at Washington overlooked some thing! .. THE EXPLOSION AT WAKE FOREST. . When there is an outbreak of haz ing it a college in which the hazing of ull freshmen, without discrimina tion, is not regarded as a matter of course, then it is safe to assume that there is fault on both sides. Theo retically, nothing can justify an as sault on freshman by sophomores. The freshman always has the letter of the law on his sidd But actually a large proportion of young cubs, when they first go from high school to college, are absolutely unfit to be allowed to live In an orderly commu nity. They find means of making themselves so obnoxious that flesh and blood, especially when it is the hot blood of youth, cannot resist the temptation to lay violent hands upon them. Of course, sophomores who cannot restrain themselves from vio lence are not desirable members of a college community, and it is gener ally wise to eliminate them. Hut are freshmen whoso offensive manners constitute a perpetual menace to peace and order any more desirable? These reflections are aroused by the explosion at Wake Forest. It is not the custom to haze all freshmen, indiscriminately, at Wake Forest; but some weeks ago an attempt was made upon one man. It turned out that the fellow was a pistol-toter and he shot one of the sophomores, wound ing him slightly. Tho authorities of Wake county took up the matter, and the freshman and two of the sopho mores were tried, the upper class men being given small fines for ah as sault, and tho freshman being taxed $50 for carrying a concealed weapon. Then the college authorities stepped in und expelled the sophomores for hazing, which is exactly what they should have done. But unfortunate ly they quit with that. They did not expel the freshman for carrying a gun. Yet -the courts had decided that .the freshman's offense was by far the more serious; and certainly one would think that he had proved himself highly undesirable ns a mem ber of the college community. More trouble has followed, of course. The ireshman has not only been thoroughly hazed, but he was hazed in the middle of the campus, in broad duylight. Eight students par ticipated in the affair, so, where Wuke Forest had three undesirables to be gin with, her failure to eject the last one of them leaves her now with nine on her hands. It is a regret table situation, to be sure; but it had its origin In partiality on tho part of tho college authorities. If the sophomores are to bo repressed ruth lessly every time they step over the bounds of the law, the freshmen must be repressed with equal ruthleasness. There can be no choice among spoiled fish. IF THE MARK GOES TO SMASH. Announcement of the German gov ernment that it will be unable to meet fully the reparations payments duo January 16, and that a morato rium is requested, is issued simul taneously with a report that Dr. Rathemtu has returned from London without concrete proposals: or prom ises for either a loan or a morato rium. The collapse of Genriuu finance, if it occurs, will run a course that may be foreseen. Iu the time of Robes pierre France issued 45 millions francs in astigiuxts, which, oil their becoming practically worthless were replaced by a " provincial currency called mandatt, that short ly had even less purchasing power. In 1778 a yard of broadcloth cost $400 in Continental currency. A new issue of paper, at 2 Vi cents on the dollar, was never redeemed. France in the revolution and this country at the close of its successful war of revolution weut through ex periences similar, in essentials, to that which Germany must encounter, if the 'inflation has indeed gone so i fur that there is no end except in utter sniush. Many readers of the Daily News have had personal experi ence in the giuduul depreciation and final loss of vulue of a national cur rency, that of the Confederacy. In such a process fortunes, in tho equivalents of money, are wiped out. ru effort by tiat to sustain the power of an intrinsically worthless cur rency has ever succeeded. Business is reduced to a minimum ; foreign money is employed more und more in such business us is done. Finally the currency that no longer-can buy food, clothing or anything of value simply ceases to circulate and there is no longer pretense that it is a cir culating medium. France outlawed its worthless cur rency, and the beginning of prosper ous business was immediate. The people of the United States bade the Continental currency a final farewell, and their foreign trade doubled in five years. Another case in nolnt. that lies within the personal experi ence of many people of the present: the dollar did not die in the nineties, but it grew very weak. After tho re peal of the Sherman silver purchase act, business became hotter than it had been in two decades. Moody's Investment Service, a financial au thority, holds that the "so-called financial collapse" of Germany would be a benefit to the whole world, after a temporary period of disturbance. Tho idea that the mark is mori bund is not accepted and will not be accepted, as long as there is a sign of life. The monetary doctors of Europe will sit up with it and minister to it, employing every ex pedient known to their skill. If all is proved of no avail, Germany, and all Europe, will breathe a sigh in which relief will be mingled with resignation. A DECISION TO ARBITRATE. The University of North Caro lina and the University of Virginia will -arbitrate their differences over the eligibility of the football player, Johnson. It is an excellent .thing, to be sure, that arbitration, and not war, is to be the method of settling the affair; and we, for one, have no doubt that Carolina will win the de cision. She has a perfect technical case, and it is hardly likely that the arbitrators will feel disposed to go behind the returns. Nevertheless, we are glad that the new ruling that goes into effect the first of January will render forever impossible the reourrenco of such a case. While wo think that Carolina was within the law, and while wo be lieve that, considering the late date' at which the protest was filed, the faculty had no choice but to back up the contract with tho students which the printed eligibility rules furnished, we take no particular pleasure in that sort of action. It is humiliating that such charges should have even a shadow of foundation when they are brought against the University of North Carolina. Virginia adopted exceedingly questionable tactics, and laid herself open to tho charge of trying to win the game without play ing for it; but when it comes to a matter ' of clean sportsmanship, "you're another" is, after all, an un satisfactory rejoinder. As a matter of fact, when one stops to consider it, the whole matter is rather absurd. Here are two great state universities wrought to a frenzy of excitement, making all sorts of charges of bad faith, and using up the time of their learned faculties, over a contest that involves nothing but a matter of physical superiority. One might think that upon the strength of a man s arms, or the fleetness of his feet, depends his greatness in the republic of letters, in the estima tion of the Universities of North Car olina und Virginia. The entire foot ball teams of both universities are not worth the impairment of the in stitutions' dignity that has attended this controversy. IS THE GOVERNOR THE OB STRUCTION? The state it advised by the reports from Raleigh that whereas the mem bers of the general assembly were last week strongly disposed to call a constitutions! convention, this week they are hesitant; and tne administra tion is opposed to it. Does this mean, in plain English, that members are reversing them selves to get in line with Governor Morrison? That would be a high testimonial, indeed, to the power, argumentative or other, or the influence, of Mr. Mor rison. But is it tho sort of testi monial tho Governor wishes shall be come one of the relies of his admin istration? His term must shine in history, in the light of the educational and high way programs associated with it. It will be called the great constructive era. It wodld he wholly in line with these stupendous achievements in practical liberalism, in substantial progressiveness, if the first necessary steps might be taken now, so that the great event, the convention It elf, may bo held during Mr. Morri son's term, if the people see fit to ratify tho call. Surely the Coventor himself is not interposing to prevent there being added to the record of his service so high and solemn an achievement, . In all mutters of a fundamental character, tho Governor is a forth right, uncompromising conservative; and ho leads the state through coun sel of men warranted safely con servative. It is in such an atmos phere that the revision of the con stitution would be mado, if initiated now; a consideration which must add to the force of the question: If eventually, why not now ? GEORGIA WOULD ENTER THE PROCESSION. First steps for the formation of a good roads association, which would work for a constitutional amendment whereby bonds to the amount of $75,000,000 could be issued for im proving and building highways, are taken by Georgians from a scoro of counties, assembled at Mucon. From tho first work formative of a good roads association wjth the definite object of building a state system oi nign roads, to the act ual authorization of the financing, was a long way in North Carolina, and in Georgia in the most favorable circumstances it will be a long time before the citizens in the Macon meeting will begin to use the, roads they have started out to build. Yet tho meeting has liberated forces that will gather strength and yet more strength until the dream of these pioneers in progress shall have become a reality. The chronological comparison Georgia preparing to begin on the immense task of modernizing its rural of beginning to modernize its rural traffic, with all that involves, a revo lution in conditions; North Carolina with the actual construction already well begun merely emphasizes North Carolina's admitted position as the south') leader in constructive progress. The states of the south will all, within five years, more or less, be en gaged in the construction of first and second class highways, a monumental task of development that will cost around two billion dollars and will be well advanced toward completion at the end of a decade. And this work will have paid for itself by the time completed. , The gravamen of the charges of American . physicians against IJr. Lorcnz, the 'Austrian surgeon, has seemed to be that, while here .ostensi bly on a mission of gratitude and of fering his services for the benefit of mankind, he lias in fact been reg ularly charging exorbitant fees, even for diagnosis. Public opinion ha been rather inclined to shame1 the doctors, without, perhaps, under standing their position. The attitude of public and press is strongly sup ported by declaration of Dr. Mayo that Dr. Loronz should bo helnan and encouraged by every doctor. That does not seem to leave much to be said. Anybody who had labored unrlar the delusion . that Bloody Breathitt naa lost tier ancient cunning must havo been undeceived within th w day or so. Trigger fingers still curl thcro with their old-time speed. THK MUCH or A NEW SHIRT.

Editor of The Daily News: This Is to assure you of my personal Interest and Indorsement of the move on foot now to Issue bonds for build iiiR and maintaining a hospital for the treatment of patients who have tu berculosis. When the state sanatorium waa built, we felt we had the treatment problem solved, but with the advanced knowledge of tuberculosis, Its treat ment, Its frequency, tile proper han dling of same, etc, haa shown that It la too big a problem for the state to handle through Ha local Institution, and that the moat economical way of coping with the situation is in build ing a system of county units under supervision of the atate. The question haa been asked whether or not It would be more economical to build a cottage at the slate sanatorium for Guilford county. This can be answered in tha nega tive; for Guilford county can run an institution us cheaply aa any county. Then there would be tho question of saving traveling expenses of paticnta and their families and frlcnda. Tha Guilford county institution will get more and earlier cases than we would be able to send out of the coun ty, because, as a rule, the average' per son who la the head of a household will not leave the county for treat ment until ha is pretty well knocked out. If ha could remain In tha county for treatment, he would feel that he could still manage tho affairs of his Dome, VT. F. COLE, M. Greensboro, Dec. 14, '81.

CHRISTMAS JOYFUL TO SOME, NOT TO OTHERS The Joyful Are Kaslly Able to Make marts Itejolre, Alao Actual Cases of Want. Two children deserted by a woman, their mother aha was, two children alona at home most ot the time, with tna tamer doing what he can to rear them. Ha cannot keep them In achool. Their clothing is scanty; at tlmea-the olothea ara so ragged that thev are sowed on the children. No tnothjer love, no caressing hand; no one to make ar rangements for Christmas for them. That l one of tha cases which the board of welfare, through Mrs. Blanche varr mernc, will try to ace over Christmas, plannlnr to give the two children one bright day of the year, To do o they will have, to have the help of Greensboro and Guilford peo ple, of some mother who la planning now to make Christmas day Joyful for her children; some father whose wife la Ulthful to him and his children; some person who haa time to atop and write a check. Mrs. Bterne la count, Ing on such people to remember these two helpless children, peopla who know how to express thanks for their own good fortune- There ara other case that the board must not disappoint; tired men and women, shouldering heavy burdens tlred-haarted children, aghast at a world yet ao yoQng to them. Here la such case: A mother with six small children, deserted by the husband and father-' the aame sad atory of another woman being lurnished all the tine clothes. while, the meek, hardworking mother strurgles to feed and clothe herself an her Hula children. Hha Is living wt'h relatives, but 'he house Is too small; she teela that aha la not want ed. It would take very little to make this mother and her children forget their troubles for a while. A little clothing, a little food, a little fruit, Just what would require a email amount of money, but aome nne whose husband who has not deserted her, who haa the protection of a good man, whose children can think ot their fath er with pride, la needed to furnish it. Mra. Sterne la counting on Its com Ing In. A mother dead, a girl small, grown up without a mother s care and pro- tectlon. Still just girl, but she ha, been deceived and ruined by a man. No relations to heln this sad. dis couraged outcast, but one of tha state'a institutions gladly took her in, even though she was friendless The girl needs warm clothing for lierself and her Innocent child. Throw tho first stone or do something for her. Mra. Kterne is expecting some man whose own daughter la sweet and pure; or some ipother whose girl is her pride; whom she haa guarded carefully all her life, or some man whose, own sister Is respected of all men and all women, to give thanks, in a wuy that this fallen girl can appreciate, that all is still well with their own girls. A wife and her four children left to exist, if they can, while the husband Is on the county roads. When such a case as this occurs, relatives and friends do what they can at first, but the case gets to be an old one to them they have their own to look after. The hearts of other people mirat bt translated into action, see that Christ mas evo Is not so fearfully shadowed for thla woman and her children. They are human beings, too, Just, like the people who have no relatives on the county roads. A husband dead a good man this time who provided as beat he could and reared his family honestly. None of the children old enough to work. The mother needs help help in these cases means food and clothing until her children can help her. This fam ily is refined, ambitious, but it needs aid. Greensboro and' Guilford county people can give It, If they will. These are actual cases brought to the attention of Mrs. Sterne. It is a good thing to know Mra. Sterne. She Is working With the people of Oreens boro and Guilford. Just a little, help, Just aa much aa can ba given, will en able her to do tha work that calls Im peratively. Cheeks, cash, clothing, coal, wood, groceries, fruits, toys she can uso all that In her task of seeing tnat the poor are not forgotten Christ-1 mas. Her office le on the third floor of the Guilford courthouse, Greensboro. Mall addressed to her there will be sure to reach her. If anything anybody has to give la too bulky to mall she will send after It. She said yesterday that some people are aending in checks and otherwise giving. The time until Christmas eve la not long. Who waa It who aald that he who gives quickly gives twice? It would be a shame to let this Christmas go by without having a part in tnia. STATE MEETING WILL BE HELD HERE IN FEBRUARY M. C. A.
