THE GLEANER GRAHAM. N. 0., .TUNE 28, 1934. ISBCBD KTEBY TB0B8DAT. I. D. KERNODLE, Editor. $1.00 A YEAR, IN ADVANCE. Kotered at Ui? ^ostofflo* at Graham. .N C.. as aeoo la-claaa mattar. i r ' Bankers' reports indicate gains in production, meaning manufactures. The President is cleaning up the left-overs from Congress before starting on his cruise to the Hawaiian Islands. The public debt of the United States aggregates close to 27 billions, the largest ever. The deficit for June 30tli will be nearly four billions, or more than three billions less than was forecast in the budget. Most of serious labor rows have been temporarily smoothed out. No one can guarantee the prolongation of the seeming l>eaceful attitude. There are disturbing elements whose principal accupation seems to be to undo things. Mrs. Sara Delano Roosevelt, mother of President Roosevelt, is in England, and on Tuesday evening sipped tea with Queen Mary in Her Majesty's private apartments at Buckingham Palace. King George was present, but the ladies were the principals in the conversation carried on. Former Gov. Morrison in his speech in the Democratic Con vention in Raleigh last Thurs day scored a come-back. It was a big contrast to his recep tion in a previous convention. Sales tax and prohibition were avoided in the platform and speeches, leaving candidates in their campaigns to their own devices so far as ihese are con cerned. x ? In a suicide pact, in China, nine Chinese girls, 13 to 19 _ r i ? i it i ) earn ui age, neu memseives together and jumped into the river. All were drowned. Un requited love is given as the cause for the act. There is, the world-over, in the human breast that something which urges, drives, the possessor to do daring, or lofty, or ignoble and or tragic things. The Collector's office of In ternal Revenue, long domiciled in Raleigh, has been ordered removed to the new govern ment building in Greensboro. The order came out the first of this week. Several months ago there was a wrangle over a mention of such removal. That quieted down and perhaps the opponents thought the inci dent closed, but it seems that it is_going through this time, and July 12th is the day for the transfer. Way back, 40 years ago, more or less, the Collector's office had homes in both Greens boro and Winston-Salem. That the office has not always been in the capitol city is no balm to the wound made by the new order. In Greensboro the office will be nearer the bulk of | business transacted through it and the new quarters in the new postoffice building will per haps afford all room required for many years to come. But Raleigh will lose some of its citizens and inconvenience ?others. "Cleveland, Ohio, handles more iron ore than any other plaoe in the world. ^ PPE5JTHE BUTTON G. H.

An identical aim: A snake in the grass and a nigger in ilie woodpile. Lookout lor either. The nose of the leading woman in C'ircustowu has grown blunt, prying into other peoples' busi ness. The major part of life had been composed of complaining and ex plaining. The third element in troduced is disdaining- aullioiily. A woman remarked: "1 have a bunch of nerves in my chest the size of a dollar." Upon si cond thought she said, "A half dollar." During the depression she had forgot the size of a dollar. Mother: Louise, cap the straw berries. Louise: Mother, I see the ber ries, but I can't liud the caps. First girl: "It must be great to be popular." Second girl: "Way, so?" First girl: "Why, you have a fellow an}' hour of the night." A Day In Dogtown All the dogs in Dogtown Called for an election To vote on the question, "Better dog Protection.'' When the cats heard the news, They began to meow Whispering among themselves, "We're up against it, now 1" So the dogs took a vote, And said, what do you think? In Dogtown, that same day. The cats stirred up a stink. The bow wows and the tabbies fought As politicians do. All the cats blamed the dogs, But the dogs barked : "It'B you!" Luxurious Life of an Aucient Queen.

C BRITISH PLAN TO STUDY ANTARCTIC i Expedition Will Spend Three Year* in South. laondon.?A British expedition to discover whether the Antarctic is one' or two continents will set out this fall. ( it will remain in the frozen South for nearly three years, studying, prin l clpally, the thousand-mile coastline be-. tween Luitpold Land and Charcot! ! Land. This land practically is unknown, j I Sir Hubert Wilkins flew over it in, 1029, but he saw only a small part of : it. The icy waste between Luitpold j 1 Land and Charcot Land is one of the( largest unknown coastal areas in the, Antarctic. An adequate survey of it J will materially assist in establishing! whether Antarctica is a whole contl-j nent or two. The expedition will consist of 14 men, I of whom the following already have | been chosen: J. R. Rymlll, leader and ; surveyor and air pilot; \V. E. Hamp I ton, second in command, chief air pilot and engineer; Q. Riley, meteorologist; ; B. B. Roberts, surveyor and ornitholo gist; W. L. S. Fleming, chaplain and geologist; J. I. Moore, engineer and I surveyor, and A. Stephenson, chief I surveyor and meteorologist Rymill, Hampton, Riley, and Ste | phenson were members of the British ! Arctic Air Route expedition. The oth | ers all have had exploration experi j enee. The expedition ulso will make a I trip down the west side of Graham Land, from Wilhelmlna bay to Crane ? channel and back to Wilhelmina bay, j approximately 700 miles. This coast | lias only been seen by Sir Hubert I Wiikins from the air and never sur I veyed. I The expedition Is expected to sail I for the Antarctic in Its own small ship I in September. Meanwhile the explor | ntion ship, Discovery II, will take a plane to Deception island, whence it will be ilown to the mainland. The ship probably will reach Wilhelmina bay next December. Demand for Horses Is Found to Be Growing Ames, Iowa.?Despite the tremen dous increase In sales of automotive | units, which might he supposed to ln : dlcate a decrease in the demand for real horse power, it was predicted here tHis week that prices for "chunks," I the middle size horse employed on the farm, would be mucli higher during the next year or two. The demand now is far ahead of the supply, it was said by Wayne Dins- ! more, secretary of the Horse Associa tion of America, and by II. A. Aberg, j state college authority. In 1932 there were but 32 purebred | stallions on the average in each Iowa county, against 100 In 1914. Iowa is Indicative of conditions in other corn belt states. The decrease in total number of horses has turned more than a million acres of land from pastures, on which the horses fed, to idle acres. Now, the farmers are buying more horses des pite the fact that the demand for tractors is on the upgrade. Chestnut Trees Coming Back, Say Foresters Providence, K. I.?Chestnut trees sre ! staging a comeback despite the fear I of forest pathologists that they even ! tually might become extinct. "We have found that sprouts from 1 dead chestnut stumps are growing from two to five inches in diameter," ! said Dr. Walter IL Snell, chairman of ! the department of botany at Brown | University. "They are growing 20 to I 25 feet high in some cases. "Until 1025, no forest pathologist be | lieved that the chestnut had a chance of coming back," be said. "Its extinc tion was believed certain in spite of ] the fact that the chestnut is rcmark j able for Its ability to send oio prouts from the stumps of dead tree;." Rat* Mutt Play, Even if Cat* Aren't Away New York.?Two sizable cats tried j to Interrupt the gambols of nine larger river rats In a closed grocery store ! at Edgewater. For the fight that fol j lowed some 50 persons had ringside seats outside the store window. When the clouds stopped rising from ripped flour sacks and the fur stopped flying, two cats lay dead on i the floor with their paws in the air. | Tha victorious rats resumed their in terrupted foraging. Saloon Wood for Church Hamburg, Ark.?The walls that housed the old Senate Club saloon, landmark of Hamburg, soon will house the Presbyterian church of Mist, eight miles from here. The saloon is being raz?d and the material hauled to Mist to construct the church. - Museum Add* Rare 165-Year-Old Bloom Chicago.?A rare orchid of his toric Interest, collected In Tahiti ICS years ago by the English ex plorer, Capt James Cook, while on the first of his three famous voy age*. has been added Wo the herba rium of the Held Museum of Nat ural History here. The specimen, dried and mounted according to herbarium practice, Is preserved In as good condition as If It bad been j collected during the last year. Termite* Are Builder*; Queen Big Egg Producer The African termite builds a conical hill 10 feet high with a circumference of anything up to 30 feet, but these are dwarfed by *ome Australian species, which build mounds 24 feet high. Kach of these mounds, writes a correspond ent in Tit-Bits Magazine, Is construct ed by the worker termites and built of minute particles of matter. The majority are oblong in shape, with the small ends Invariably pointing north and south. The material consists of earth and wood, but before being used It Is eaten by the workers. This gives them nourishment and a uniform build ing substance. Somewhere In a well-guarded place In the heart of the termites' home we find the royal compartment of tho queen. She Is a remarkable creature, for after mating with the king her body swells to an enormous size, and for the remainder of her life she Is an egg machine, attaining a length of 3 Inches and laying 60,000 eggs a day. With such a prolific mother the col ony Increases to such an extent that there may be millions of workers and soldiers, yet all their operations are carried out In darkness, and hundreds of human beings have lived all their lives within a few yards of a colony without seeing a single termite. If a queen should die, the colony is thrown Into confusion, but the workers take some of the eggs and treat them In some mysterious manner to produce queens. So far as we can tell all eggs laid by the queen are similar, but the workers can produce qurens, kings, soldiers or workers. Difference Between the Scotch, English Collies Modern doe breeders reenenise three main types of collies, of which oaly two are really collies, says the Montreal Herald. The Old English sheep dog, which has no real tail, is a big, rough-coated mastiff type of dog which has not been used to herd sheep for at least a century. The true collie is a medium-sized wolfhound type of dog which in north ern England and Scotland has been bred and trained to a high point of Intelligence in the herding of cattle and sheep, particularly the latter. On this continent what is known as the Scotch collie has been developed more as a show dog and household pet, has become larger, with a longer face and head, more than id a heavier coat, than their old North British forebears. This type of dog has considerable sagacity but is Just as difficult to train as a cattle or sheep dog as the average mongrel. But here and there a few of the North British collies or their progeny can be found, and these, though smaller and possibly not so good looking, are to be preferred to the so-called Scotch collie. Giant Jungle Flower There are freaks in the plant king dom such as giants, dwarfs, etc., Just the same as in other forms of life. One of the curious freaks among plants is the rafflesla, giant flower found in the Sumatran Jungles. It has neither stem nor loaves but boasts a great blossom that measures a good three feet across, usually, with five petals each a foot long and about an inch thick. A normal flower weighs nearly fifteen pounds. Its rim is light yellow and the petals are a brick red nrhttiirH *?? nniwou PJ?UIB ?? 1111*1 lilt? JMSlllS are pale yellow surrounded by blue. Sterns or leaves are unnecessary be cause the flower is a parasite which grows from those of other plants and derives its nourishment from thera. It lives but a short time after flow ering.?Pathfinder Magazine. Macaulay Loved Books Lord Macaulay, the famous historian and poet, often wrote long letters to his nephew and nieces, and to one called Margaret he wrote: "I am al ways glad to make my little girl hap py, and nothing pleases me so much as to see that she likes books. For when she Is as old as I am, she will find that they are better than all the tarts, and cakes, and toys, and plays and sights In the world. If anybody would make me the greatest king that ever lived, with palaces, and gardens, and fine dinners, and wine, and coaches and beautiful clothes, and hundreds of servants, on condition that I would not read books, I would not be a king. I would rather be a poor man In a garret with plenty of books than a king who did not love reading." U. S. Slang in Oxford Lexicon However rude or crude are Ameri can terms they are so expressive and Impudently near the truth that It is very hard to resist them a place In any honest lexicon. Such terms are "graft," "once-over," "foolproof" and I "step on the gas." This was the ex plnnation given by the president of Magdalen college, Oxford, England, for i their inclusion In the supplementary | volume of the Oxford Dictionary. Among other phrases which have been introduced Into the English language in the last 50 years and given a place In the dictionary are "all of a do da" and "give It the once over." J Female Larger Than Male Fish There is considerable difference In | size between the male and female of: the deep sea fish species known to scientists as Idiacanthus fasciola. Al- j though the females of the species may \ range In length from 2\? to 10^k Inches, the males grow to be only from I to 1*4 Inches long. ' Summons by Publication J NORTH CAROLINA, ALAMANCB COONTY.
