GERMAN GOVERNOR OF
POLAND PUTS IN FORCE
GREGORIAN CALENDAR
February 8th Set Apart as
'Swannanoa Valley Good
Roads Day."
Warsaw, Jan. 25. General von
Besoler; governor of Poland, has is
sued a decree according to which
thrft portion of Russia now occupied
by the Germans shall henceforth
i;hunge from the Julian to the Grego
rian calendar, and therefore conform
to the standards of a majority of the
countries of the world.
Heretofore llussla and Poland have
gone by the calendar' Introduced by
Julius Caesar in the year 47 B. C.
which varies by thirteen days from
the Gregorian calendar compiled in
the sixteenth century, and adopted
by most countries in the eighteenth
century.
The introduction of the Gregorian
j calendar Into the government of
I Warsaw, means a cessation of count
l lees misunderstandings. Heretofore it
has been necessary' to "double date'
every proclamation and order. Thus
a document referring to December 11
had also to hear the date November
28 for the benefit of Poles reckoning
according to the Julian calendar. - tn
future air dates will be according to
Gregorian reckoning.
At a meeting last night lh which
goon roads enthusiasm was much in
evidence, citizens of Black Mountain
set aside February S as "Swannanoa
Valley Good Roads Pay" for the pro
motion of a highway from Ridgecrest
to Asheville. A special train will be
run on this occasion from Ridgecrest
to this city where the boosters from
the upper Swannanoa valley will con
fer with local enthusiasts on the prop
osition of better road communication
between the two localities.
C. A. Dickey of the Dickey-Campbell
Lumber company presided at the
gathering in Bonita theater. C. C.
Boone stated the object of the meet
ing, deciding that It is time the citi
zens are waking up to the meaning of
Governor Craig's promise that the
convicts at Hickory Nut Gap will be
taken to the Old Fort-Rldsrecrest road
as soon as possible.
On request Chalrmnii CDlckey ap
pointed committees and named their
field of operation as follows: It. L.
Ferguson, yv, 1.. Dougherty and R. K.
Currier, Black Mountain; C. C. Boone,
George F. Adams and Dr. B. F. Lnn
dreth, Swannanoa township; Dr. Clyde
E. Cotton, T. A. Brown, R. U. Wood
ward and Mayor G. V. Stepp. of Black
Mountain. Asheville; Dr. R. J. Archer
and C. C. Lord, Montreat. ;
It is thought that at least 2Df good
roadn advocates will visit Asheville
on February 8.
A movement is on foot to have all
the Black Mountain stores close on
February for the good roads rally so
that a large crowd may cone on the
special train to Asheville.
H. n. Craven and S. C. Moore of
Ridgecrest are committeemen to
arouse interest in tho movement for
improved roads in their community.

Marabla: the "Kangaroos"., from
Wagga; the "Wartahs" named after
an Australian flower from Nowra
and "The Men from Snowy River'
have left the town of Delegate. The
nickname of the latter party Is tak
n from the poem of "The Men from
Snowy River" by A. B. Paterson, a
popular poet who Is now a major with
the Australian forces In Egypt.
The military authorities are giving
these voluntary "armies" as much
encouraement as possible. Staff ser
geant majors have been provided for
each contingent. The several marches
now In progress cover from 100 to
400 miles, and along the way the vol
unteers are the center of many pa
triotic ovations.

News From the Home
of the Coffee Bean
Mr. Frank 0. Carpenter, noted correspondent, writing from Santos, Brazil, said
to the chief coffee port of the world in an, article in the Los Angeles Times of
Oct, .TOtb, 1915, says:
"The people here believe in coffee. They talk nothing else
and as they talk they drink. They drink so much of this
beverage that they grow sallow, and the muBcles of their
faces twitch continuously. When one of them sits in a
chair, resting his toes on the floor, his knees bob up and
down with nervousness, and the whole system seems af
flicted with St. Vitus' Dance."

CAPE GOOD HOPE ROUTE

Berlin, Jan. 25. in many ways at

porter, fully clothed and with muddy
boots, badly under ths Influence of
liquor, lying on the guest's bed.
Ths hotel proprietor summarily lis
missed the porter. - The discharged
employe, however, sued under the luw
whlch sperllles that notice must he
given except In certain well-defined
cases. The court upheld the porter's
claim and awarded him back pay of
U7 marks, on the following grounds:
The porter's surrender to the in
fluence of lkiuor probably was due In
pert to his sarller wounds. His act
In lying down on ths guest's bed was
caused by his Intoxication. Therefore
It was, attributable and excusable,
