GLEN ALPINE SCHOOL
OPENS SEPTEMBER 3D.
On Sept. 3rd the Glen Alpine High
School will open. This is a State
high school, and any student of Burke
county, who is able to enter the high
school department, will be admitted
without tuition. It is the purpose of
this school to prepare students both
for college and for life.
Parents who expect to send children
to this school are urged to start them
at the beginning of the fall term,
even though it should require sacri
fice to do so. It requires at least
eight months to complete the work of
a grade, and students who enter late
should not expect to be promoted at
the end of the school year. If par
ents should carefully examine the
monthly reports of their children, at
the end of the year, they would not
be surprised to hear whether or not
their children were promoted.
This year some high school books
have advanced a little in price, but
parents should see that each child be
furnished with a full set of books.
Books for grades below the high
school department may be secured at
Morganton, but the principal should
ba consulted for high school books.
A hearty co-operation by parents
with teachers will add much to the
efficiency of the school.
For further information, see or
write the principal.

GOVERNMENT SENDS
AN URGENT CALL.
If sorghum syrup and cane syrup
is sealed to prevent fermentation, it
will prove a good winter sweetener.
Well made cane syrup can be used to
take the place of sugar even in coffee.
Fruits can be preserved in grape
juice or apple juice in place of a sugar
syrup. Extract the juice from very
ripe fruit and boil down to one-half
the volume to form a thin grape or
apple syrup.

The War Industries Board
has given positive orders
that all newspapers go on
strict cash - in - advance
basis. The penalty for
their not doing so will be
that no provision will be
made for their supply of
white paper, ink and fuel.
We are compelled to obey
if we are to get supplies
with which to coninue to
do business.
On and after October 1st
NO paper will be sent
from this office on which
the subscription has not
been paid in advance.
Thereafter papers will be
discontinued, promptly
upon . expiration of sub
scription. Look at the label on your
paper and see that it is moved
up before we are compelled to
go through the list and cut off
all delinquents.
This is fair warning. There is
no choice given us but to obey
the order. We can make no
discrimination in favor of any
one. If you are behind and
want to continue to receive the
paper, attend to this matter AT
ONCE. Don't put it off and
possibly let it slip your mind.
We should like to continue
everyone of our present subscr
ibers but expect to obey to the
letter the War Board's order.
Respectfully,
