Avezatino, a city of 10,- 000 was wiped out and 8,000 of its population met death The district most severely stricken lies noitlieast and southeast of Home. In the numerous villages in that district' none escaped death and injury to persons and property loss. The shock waß folt practically all over Italy.

Recently an organized attack by alleged Democrats has been made on President Wilson In an endeav or to deafeat his renomination for President in 1916. Anyone who hag watched closely the,-»olitical trend in the last two years wdll have no difficulty in guessing at the source from which the attack originates. In 1904 Wm. R. Hearst, the owner of the famous New York "Journal'- as the little newsboys call it, en deavored to obtain the Democratic nomination by spending unlimited sums of money. Wm. R. Hearst found out that he could not obtain the Democratic nomination by "opening the bung" of his barrel, and furtheremore that the Demo cratic nomination never has been and never will be for sale. So, Mr. Hearst after having found that he could not obtain his Democratic nomination with money, he then set out in 1908 and "bought and paid for" a little political party of his own, which he called the "Inde pendent League," but he could not get much satisfaction out of that, as it never succeeded in polling one percent of the votes of the country. So, after having failed to get the nomination in 1904, and having fail ed to create a party of his own, for selfish purposes, determined to try the "Mark llanna Game", and that iB nominate, elect and then own your President, the same as Mark did William Mckinley; So the Hearst papers are now busy at work endeavoring to sidetrack Mr. Wilson and nominate Champ Clark, who clime very near securing the nomination in 1912 after Mr. Hearst had spent, it is alleged over two million dollars in helping to elect delegate* for him to the Demo cratic convention of 1912. The only ground they are basing their cam paign on is the claim which they making that Mr Wilson does not wish the nomination in 1916. Mr. Wilson has not spoken on this question and it is well known that he has never been governed to the slightest extent in his official ac tion by a desire for renomination. In this respect Mr. Wilson stand's out conspiculously in a class by himself, as he is the only one in the last fifty years elected to the Presidency who did not immediate ly proceed to work for renomina tion, President Wilson's sole ob ject and efforts have been to serve the people of the United States and If they demand his renomina tion in 1916, which they will un doubtedly do, of their own free will and accord, he will undoubt edly accept the same as a duty to his country. IMMIGRATION BILL. Just at the end of President Taft's administration a Bill was passed restricting the immigration to this- country, which he vetoed. A similar bill passed the House of Representatives about a year ago, by a vote of 353 against 136. Tola is a two to one vote and will paas a bill over the Preaident'a head if he should be so foolish as to vet the same. The bill passed the Sen ate by a still greater majority of JO against a bare T opposing votea. It la claimed that President Wilson is opposed to the "Illiteracy test" which would exclude all for eigners who can neither read nor write in their own language, nor the English language. This of course, would exclude qdite a num ber of honest, worthy and deairaule immigrants. But, however, the time has arrived when immigration to thia country rauat cease entirely, because they are apreading crimes throughout the United States at an an alarming rate." For instance, /you can go to a certain gang in New. York City and pay them tS&.OO an din SO daya they will murder any person you may want put out .of your way.. The "BVening" edi tion of the "New York Herald" is I authority for the statement, that j since business haa been dull, yO'l now have anyone murdered for even >5.00. This is the immediate reault of the ' unlimited imraigra gration from foreign countriea whp settle In the large tfitlea such a) New -York, Boston, Philadelphia* Chicago and others, and they will not wi»rk on the farms, and eo they are a burden and a tax on the thrift and Industry of the United States. If President Wilson should veto the bill which will be presented to him for hii algnature In a few days every American cit- Isen should write to the two Sena tors from his State and hla Rep resentative In Congreaa and de mand that this bill be passed over the veto of the President.

HICKORY CHIPS. Thus far it looks like a per fectly good year. Think of Salem, Mass., unseating its mayor who had served five times, by way of the recall. Now is the time to keep on your armored resolutions. "I obey and respect the orders of President Guitterrex," Villa says says in a telegram sent from Mex ico City, to the Washington agent.

Thousands of people all over NORTH CAROLINA PHYSICIANS WANT BETIER CHILD LABOR LAW. 1 (indorse 14-Year Age Limit snd 8-Hour Day. ' - That the premature employment - of children is injurious to the child • and to society, and should be for bidden to childfen under 14 is the 1 opinion of over SOO physicians of - North Carolina. A questionaire sent out by Mr. W. H. Swift, secre tary of the Nortl Carolina Child Labor Committee, brought back hundreds of replies, indicating- the wide-spread interest which people all over the State are taking in the question of child labor reform. "345 physician* were asked to give their opinion on the vital question of whether children under ! 14 should be' employed in mills, factories stores. Or any other simi lar rlace" said Mr Swift, r and 388 of these physicians were interested enough to veplv. Fully two-thirds of them advocate a 14-year age liirnt and an even larger propor tion believe that the employment of children under 14 should be lim ited to B hours a day and pro hibited entirely in dangerous occu pations. They also recommend that power should be given the Com imissloner of Labor and Printing to enforce the child labor law, because a child labor law without enforce ment is a 'farce and a swindle.' l " 1 he replies received by Mr.Swift reveal an frterestin;; fact—that th - abolition of child labor depends solely-on intelligent public opin ion. •'iVhen a physician argues tha , in regard to children under II yrs. of ajie, do not think it would be injui ious for them to work 10 or 11 hours a day in mills, factories, etc,, as .it would be •employment for them, nnd possibly learn them to reiiize their duty to their God, first, and I hen to their worldly du ty, I know that he has no concep tion of what 11 hours a day in a cotton mil! means to in or 12-year old child," said Mi.

SIPHONS' DRUQ STORK. j ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + ♦ ;+ SCHOOL NEWS; + illinium nimnim ■ On New Year's Day in the Syl van High School auditorium, the , formal presentation of the State i championship cup in base ball took 1 place. The cup was presented by the Superintendent and accept ed by Mr. Blake E. Isley, who was principal of the school last year when the cup was won. This cup is a prize of signifi cance as it gives the Sylvan team the very first place in the State in baseball last year. The team that won the victory, several former students, and a large crowd from the community were present to re joice over the victory. The Ossipee Country Life Club held its regular semi-monthly meeting Saturday, January 9, 1916. A splendid crowd was present and program rendered proved helpful to everyone. The Ossipee band fa vored the Club with several excel lent selections. Dramatization by the small pupils, songs, quartettes, and an address by W. A. Jones made the occasion entertSining and beneficial. The enthusiastic in terest that prevailed during the en tire evening was very encouraging to the leaders of the Club. The Superintendent published week before last in the county pa pers an article entitled "The School Grounds." He has in this week s papers another article, "The School Room and its Equipment." The SuperinteAdent will write and pub lish several other articles durngi Spring term. The printers are now printing on nice card board and in good form for posting in the several schools of the county the "Country Boy's Creed." There will be enough cop ies made to give one to every school in the county, and it will be ready for distribution in a few days. The Creed runs as follows: "I believe that the country which God made is more beautiful than the city which man made: That life out of doors and in touch with the earth is the natural life of mati.i I beleive that work is work, where ever we find it; but that work with nature is more inspiring than work with the most intricate machinery. I believe that the dig-; nity of labor depends not on what you do but how you do it; that opportunity comes as often to the boy on thai farm as it does to a boy in the city; that life is larger and freer and happier on the farm than in town; that my success depends not on. my location, but . upon myself—not upon my dreams but upon what' I actually do—not upon luck but upon pluck. I be lieve upon working when you work i>r»l in playing when you play, and in giving and demanding a square deal in every act of life." I The School Room and its Equipment I The school room should be large enough to contain a certain num ber of rows of desks ,wlth sufficient . aisles on each side of every row and without wasted space. If double desks are used a space of six feet wide should be provided for each row. In other words, a room should be 34 feet wide to con tain four rows of desks, IS feet to contain three rows of double desks. If single desks are used, four feet should be provided for each row, in order to have ample room. On this basis the room H feet wide should seat six rows. In seating a given room with.single desks you cannot seat nearly as many pupils as seen by the number of rows of desks. However, the single desks are preferable for proficient ser vice, but not from the standpoint of economy of space or economy of cost A given style of desk that costs $3.00 for a double, the sin gle costs but $3.40, and seats only one-half as many. The school room should be ao contracted and the desks so placed that the light comes from one side (preferably the left) or both. Cross lights are in jurious to the eyes ana should not be in a school room. In no event, should the deeka be arranged so the student looks directly toward a window; but on the other hand the desks fiaould be arranged so the students' eyes rests upon some wall or shaded surface. This leads us to consider the walls of the room and the interior painting. The appearance of the inside of the school room should claim our special attention. How deadening and dangerous Is the dark and dirty school room. How inspiring and refining Is the well painted, well-kept school room, decorated with suitable pictures. Let the necessary cleaning always precede decoration. There should be in each room some prevailing color scheme. If this is not easily carried out in full, it ahould be kept In the main by, avoiding any thing with a color that Is entire ly out of harmony. If the room la properly lighted (the window space equaling one-flftn or one-sixth of ♦k« fin» «p«>i « Ugh* gray or aa light green are two of the best colors. A soft white is good where and only where much light ia da aired. , , Select pictures to suit the grade and the kind of work that Is done. Select pictures to suit the life of the grade or grades ot pupils, and pictures that lead into the hfe you want the students to Uve. Pictures teach. A story la told that a mountain boy went to sea. very much against his mother's will. She lamented and lamented his going. She not only 4 regretted his go ing, but was puzzled to know why he wanted to go. She solilo quised: "Why did Bay mountain boy want to go to sea?" Aad she gazed upon the wall of hSr room as she sorrowed and only to see a picture of a ship with sails set and tossing upon a surging sea. The explanation was found. Pic tures teach. Be careful in their se lection. No picture should go up because it is a picture oaly. ft ' ■ ''-.(siA.

Too many pictures can be put into a -room v . Too many pic tures can "be put into an art gal lery. Certainly too many can be put into a school room. Select some, not too many, arrange them from the student's point of view, and not the teacher's. Nothing is better (or school room walls than well chosen mottoes and epigrams. They impress great truths upon the minds of the stu dents that are never forgotten. They often become principles that reign in the nt|nd and rule the life for ?;ood. No normal person can come ace to face with a fundamental truth so concisely and 'so clearly stated that it lingers in the mind without being benefitted. Let the walls qf every school room be feed ers of thruth, as well as the books, b ybearing in bold type beautiful and aptly chosen truths. All modern school rooms must be amply provided with blackboards to do effective work. The teach er must have room to demonstrate her work to the pupil, and the pu pil must have TOO malso to put his work where all may see and learn. The blackboards should be at the front of the room or as nearly to to the front as can be. Hyloplate, Which is a pulp material about 3-8 of an inch in thickness, with a smooth surface is one of the best and one of the most used boirds. It is said at about SI.OO per square yard. Slated cloth, which is not so good, can be bought for about one-half the cost of tne Hyloplate. If yori hae a smooth wall you can paint a board black with black board paint that will give you fair service at a minimum cost. One dollar's worth of blackboard paint that can be secured in almost any town will paint board enough for the average school room. Rostrums are often not used in school rooms. But by the use of a rostrum a teacher can see more and save energy—a commodity very much in demand. A portable rostrum is usually the most prac tical. This type can be suited to different needs. For example, The rostrums in a building, if portable, may be collected and formed into one large rostrum for special occa sions. Every school room should have itß windows provided with shades. This is especially true of windows exposed to the southern light. Northern light is preferable for a school room, as it is free from the bright &lare of the sun. But to regulate the light of the room properly, all windows should be' shyed. If the room is improperly llgnted by hving cross lights, the teacher can offset the bad effect by keeping the shades down on one side of the room—especially those —near the front. Window shades are very imortant and cost very little. The stove should be selected with regard to the size of the room. It is often customary to put the stove in the center of the room. To lo cate the stove in the center of the room does not economize space. It economizes space to locate the stove between the desks jtnd the teacher's place, or at the rear of the room. It is economy of money to buy a cast iron stove instead of a sheet iron heater. The heat er will cost half as much and will not, as a rule, last one-fourth as long. Every stove pipe should be msde as long as possible to increase the radiation in the room and 'to de crease the danger of destroy ing the; house by fire. No stove should have it* * pipe leading to a flue directly over it —and especially where the ceiling is low. Increase your pipe, put in a damper and thus increase your heat and decrease your danger. A stove box was the old means used to protect the floor from the fire in the stove. And how often it was the recipient of all the trash, hulls, papers, biscuit* bones—and a sight to behold it was, and alto gether dirty. It was the cuspidor of the school; and it was a genu ine germ generator generally at work. If a atove box It to be used it ahould be kept clean. I would recommend sheet iron in stead of the box. A waate box, or better, a waste basket, should be a part of the equipment of. every school room. Let it be passed twice or three times a day to collect the stu dents' waste paper and in this way keep the paper from being scat tared on the floor. To help keep dpwn dust and to avoid the spread of disease, oil the I floor of the school room. Bach pu pil brings a certain amount of dirt to be dried into duet. To this ia added the chalk dust. AU to be stirred by a multitude of mov ing feet. Desks become dirty, books and hands soiled, and disease germa mo flying on their daily mis sion. Offset these effects ana ren der sweeping easy by oiling the floor. Four gallons of oil that will cost only one dollar will oil a large room and will te worth many dollars In preventing dust, protect ing property and preserving life. J. B.
