And the First Will Be Last.
The untimely death of Jack Lon
don has given sincere grief to hun
dreds of thousands throughout the
United States who never knew him
personally but did know him thru
his books. It is curious that the
last npvel he wrote should be in
the same field as the first one that
really brought him fame, "The
all of the Wild," a dog story, was
really the first of London's books
to place him where he belongs—in
the thin ranks of American writ
ers whose wont a will live beyond
this century.
In the January Cosmopolitan
Magazine, now on the news stands,
is the first installment of Jack Lon
don's last and greatest dog story.
It is called "Jerry.'- "Jerry r is a
brave and loyal hero dog who Is
story brother of "Buck' of "The
Call," of "White Fang," of
"Batard 'adn "Brown, Wolf, and of
"Spot" and "Possum ', the immor
tal sextette. He is portrayed body
and soul, as only Jack London, of
all the world's writers, could char
acterize a dog.

HEALTH BOARD TO DO LIFE
EXTENSION WORK.
State Board of Health WilL Inaugu
rate in Alamance County Unit of
Life Extension Work —Dr.
Ellington in Charge.
To prolong life and make it more
useful is tne subject of the Life
Extension Unit, a new feature of
health work that is soon to be in
augurated in Alamance county by
the State Board of Health. Dr. A.
J. Ellington of Wake Forest College
and Columbia University, has been
put in charge' of the work, which
will begin in February or not later
than March Ist. Dr. Ellington has
done service for 18 months in the
New York City Hospital. He has
also studied with the New York
Health Department and the Life
Extension institute preparatory to
this work in North Carolina.
The plan of this unit of health
work, popularly known as periodic
medical examinations, uses the
coufity as a basis. At the county s
expense, every white person In the
county between the ages of 30 ana
65 years will be given a physical
examination to detect any defects
or impairments leading to any se
rious degenerative disease. No
treatment or operative procedure
will be undertaken and suitable ad
vice concerning personal hygiene
and proper living habits will be
given. Wherever subjects are
Found that demand treatment, they
will be referred to a physician,
dentist or occulist of their own
choosing.
The examination, which will be
made in a well-equipped office
with modern laboratory facilities,
will be, first, to detect minor phys
ical defects which decrease one s
capacity for work or pleasure; sec
ond, to detect the earliest of dis
ease tendencies and physical im
pairments which may later lead to
serious and fatal diseases; tnird,
by teaching practical personal hy
giene. To this end, an examination
of the urine, sputum and blood as
as indicated of the patient will be
made.
The degenerative diseases that
are to be guarded against, and
whose mortality rates in this coun
try are every day climbing, are
cancer, tuberculosis, kidney niseas
es, including Hright's, organic heart
diseases, diabetes, apoplexy and kr
terio sclerosis or hardening of the
arteries. Conditions leading to
these diseases will be detected and
the remedy made known.

Mr. Bryan Changed as to Government
Ownership.
Federal regulations of'railroad*
should be in addition, un 4n a
substitute for State regulation. W.
J. Bryan told the Newlands Joint
committee on inter-state commerce,
in Washington. He vigorously op
posed the proposal of the railroads
lor a greater centralization of reg
ulating authority in the hands of
the Federal government on the
ground that this would impose sucn
a burden on the authorities at
Washington that they could not
deal with the problem adequately,
because it would tempt railroad* to
exert influence on Congress, and
because "the people at home can
best attend to the things at home. 1
He said that Congress could exer
cise its fullest powers over the rail
roads without interfering with the
powers of the States, and that
nothing would hasten government
ownership of railroads more than
the success of the centralization
plans. t
Mr. Bryan explained that he had
changed his mind on the subject
of government ownership since he
advocated such a step ten years
ago and that he now loe* not de
sire government ownership if it can
be avoided. "I have believed for
a number of years,'' he said, "that
government ownership was inevit
able, but only oecause the rail
roads would not consent to effect
ive regulation, and that the people
would be comjielled for their own
protection to take charge of the
railroads. Personally f cannot
say that 1 desire government own
ership. I am too much of an indi
vidualist. I desire It only when
competition and proper regulation
become impossible. Private monop
oly is indefensible, *-
