bath towels, 2,500,000 hand towels,
1,750,000 handkerchiefs, 125,000

all chapters to share In providing
the articles on a plan to be known
as the "linen shower." Each

America's Might.
Raleigh Times.
America's vast shipbuilding pro
gram has opened the eyes of the
world to her tremendous possibili
ties, tecently declared Peter O.
Knight, vice-president and gen
eral counsel of the American In
ternational Shipbuilding Corpo
ration, which operates the big
plant at Ilog Island.
"It is the best possible evidence
that we intend to stick," he said.
The Japanese visitors counted the
fifty ways, one by one, and ex
claimed: 'Why, we have only ten
more ways in our whole country
th in you have iu this one yard.'
And Lord Reading of England,
declared that it typified the limit
iessness of America.
"Others ask how we can do such
things, and they learn that at the
beginning of the war the wealth
if the United States was $250,-
000,000,000, compared with $85,-
U00,000,000 as the wealth of Great
Britain; $80,000,000,000 for Ger
many, and $55,000,000,000 for
France.'
"We have half the total bank
ing resources of the world. Since
the wiir began we have bought
back $4,000,000,000 of securities,
loaned $7,000,000,000 to Allies
and extended credit to Allies and
business concerns to the amount
of $7,000,000,000 more. We have
carried on the enlarged business
of the country aud a war costing
us $50,000,000 a day.
"And America's wealth lias in
creased since August, 1914. It
has one-fourth of the commerce
of the globe and has accumulated
a third of the gold supply* of the
world. So great is the nation's
wealth that even this war cannot
deplete it. Informed Germans or
citizens of other nations cannot
think Germany can win with
America against her."
Be Your Own Seed min.
Mrs. W. D. Toy.
In pidneer days seeds of grain,
vegetables, fruit, flowers brought
from the old country were worth
their weight in gold. Flowers and
homely vegetables familiar in
gardens across the sea, and there
fore dear, bloomed here side by
side with plants from the woods
and fields of the new world. Year
after year from each crop were
saved the best seed against the
time of another planting.
But with growing abundance
the saving of seeds came to be lestr
and less a concern of homely
thrift. The custom of-saving
one's own seed was no longer gen
eral. The seed merchant bocame
a most useful member of the com
mercial world. In our own day it
has been easier to buy seed than
to save them. Therefore we have
bought.
The farmers have saved seed,
wheat, corn and other grains,
while the thrifty farmer's wife has
saved the seed of her favorite
vegetables, but the townsman has
forgotten the art of selecting and
keeping his own seed aud the store
has been too easy of access.
This year the supply of seed is
short, alarmingly short, and the
prices abnormally high. The gov
ernment calls upon the individual
gardener to return to the ways of
his thrifty forefathers, to utake a
study of seed selection and in so
doing to inanifect the saufe pa
triotic pride he has shown in bis
garden.
One of tho most striking de
velopment* of the day is the war
garden movement. Together with
the thrift stamps habit, it prom
ises to convert the speud-thrift
American into the sturdy self
respecting citizen that his great
grandfather was.
The gardener who takes pains
to save a quarter for a thrift
stamp because his country asks
him to do it, will by and by be
saving his garden seed because
his government says it will help
feed the country.
Silage can be easily kept over
the summer by spreading a sack
of oats over the top of the silage
and wetting them good. They
will seal it up very quickly and
tightly."
Robinson's Circus Coming.
The John Robinaon Circus, the
oldest institution of its kind in the
world, is coming to Burlington,
Tuesday, Oct. 15th. For 93 years
this famous circus has been en tour,
and for the past decade it has con
lined itself almost entirely to the
American continent its field.
The Robinson circusv. was the
pioneer, and from an humble a tart
it has grown to be one of the biggest
in the world. It is really known
among circus folk an the college of
circua engineering and promotion,
because it wa» with thi» circus that
many of the implements and bita of
equipment that make the moving of
a circns possible were invented.
The circus itdblf has kept abreast
of the times and today it has a per
formance that is a composite of
everything circusy with newly add
ed features—seen for the first time
beneath canvaa. Some idea of the
magnitude of the circua can be gain
ed when it is known that it takes
three trains to transport it and
tents to house it. The performance
moves with the rapidity of a moving
picture and is one of grandeur in
every sense of the word. The horses
with the circus are the pick of the
western markets, and in themselves
constitute a horsfe fair.
Circus day tickets will be on. aals
at tho City Drug Store corner
Main and Front St. at the same
prices charged on the show grounds.
Foch's Way.
Rome Dispatch.
Tho following tt jry is going the
rounds of the newspapers in Italy:
s The Italians—influenced by
devil-made minors —were still re
treating before their German-
Austrian kamerads.
The British and French troops
poured into Italy commanded by
Foch.
At once the Italians began to
make some sort of a stand.
An Italian boy soldier, loaded
dowu with a heavy bag of sup
plies, was climbing a steep path.
No horse or automobile could
make it; everything must go on
men's backs.
The young Italian was very
tired. The load was too much for
him, but he kept on plugging
ahead.
lie heard a footstep. A brisk
old man, dressed in' the horizon
blue of Frauce, came up beside
him.
"Pretty heavy load for you,
son," said the old Frenchman,
speaking Italian.
"Oul, m'sleu," agreed the son of
Italy, speaking French to be
courteous.
"Let me give you a hand," Bald
the old i French soldier, and he
seized the heavy bag and threw it
over his shoulder, and the
sous of tho Latin nations kept
cliinbiug. After a time the man
in horizon blue said, "Let us rest
a minute," and they sat down be
side the path.
Soon some Italian general staff
officers appeared—one of them be
ing on the king's personal staff.
Of course the two soldiers by the
roadside came to their feet to sa
lute the high officers.
But the Italian oflicers stopped.
The one who belonged to the
kiug's personal stalT ejaculated
one word:
"Foch."
That's who it was—Foch. "Le
Patron," which is French for the
"big boss."/
He had been caught acting like
a common human being. But It
didn't feaze him. He didn't for
get that he Is Le Patron. He sa
luted the Italian high officers
stiffly, threw the bag on his shoul
ders again, and with the Italian
soldier beside him protesting vol
ubly, those two started up the
path.
Pretty safe sort of a man,
Foch, oh ?
Pretty good sort to have charge
of our boys who go "over there."

I believe in a permanent agri
culture, a soil that shall grow
richer rather than poorer from
year to year.
I believe in hundred-bushel corn
and in fifty-bushel wheat, and I
shall not be satisfied with any
thing less.
I believe that the only good
weed is a dead weed, and that a
clean farm is as important as a
clean conscience.
I believe in the farm boy and in
the farm girl, the farmer's beat
crop* and the future's beat hope.
I believe in the farm woman,
and will do all in my power to
make her life easier and happier.
I believe in a country school
that prepares for country life,
and a country church that teaches
Its people to love deeply and live
honorably.
I believe in community spirit,
a pride in home and neighbors,
apd I will do my part to make
n)y own community the best in
the State.
I believe In the farmer, I be
lieve in farm life, I believe in the
inspiration of the open country.
I ain proud to be a farmer, and
I will try earnestly to be worthy
of the name.

The New-Time Woman. -
Laura Drake Gill.
I believe that every woman
needs a skilled occupation de
veloped to the degree of possible
self-support.
She needs it commercially for
an insurance Against reverses.
She needs it socially for a com
prehending sympathy with the
world's workers.
She needs it intellectually for
constructive habits of mind which
make knowledge usable.
She needs it esthetlcally for an
understanding of harmony rela
tionships as de'erinining factors
in conduct of work.
I believe that every young wo
man'should practice this skilled
occupation up to the time of her
marriage 'for gainful ends with
deliberate intent to acquire there
from the widest possible profes
sional and financial experience.
I believe that every woman
shonld expect marriage to inter
rupt for some years the pursuit
of any regular gainful occupation;
that she should prearrange with
her Jiusband some equitable di
vision of the family income snch
as will insure a genuine partner
ship, rather than a position of de
pendence (on either side); and
that she Bhould focus her chief
thought during the early youth of
her children upou the Bcieuce and
art of wise family life.
I believe that every woman
should hope to retftrn, in the
second leisure of middle age, to
some of her early skilled occupa
tions—either as an unsalaried
worker iu some one of its socini
phases, or, If income be an object,
as a salaried worker in a phase of
it requiring inatuiity and social
experience.
I believe that this general policy
of economic service for American
women would yield generous by
products of intelligence, respon
sibility and contentment.
