Sykes, pro fessor of history and political science in Wake Forest College. He an nounced as his subject, "Reservoirs of War. or Cisterns of Strife," and with but a brief introductory plung ed into a discussion of the causes of the European war. Despite its ignorance of the espe cial purposes of the occasion. Dr. Sykes' address was heard with the- closest attention. He declared that cien have failed to sense the loca tion of the causes of strife. There are reservoirs of coal, water and knowledge, he said, and as truly there are cisterns which, tapped, yield an outpouring of war. Wars have al ways existed and the greatest is in progress now, and the hope of a last ing peace is in the razing of the landed aristocracy of the world and the advancement of democracy. London is owned by nine families; or at least, the land on which it is built is entailed to that many estates. THE COUNTY GOMSSIOMS ) BUSINESS CLAIMING THEIR AT TENTION AT MONTHLY MEETING THIS WEEK. "I am persuaded, however, that much more prominent in the minds of all was the idea of expressing our appreciation and gratitude for the unselfish labors and devoted service of the men and women who surren dered their lives to the higher edu cation of the young women of the state. It is perfectly natural for our thoughts to center around the man who labored so thoughtfullly, so thoroughly, so earnestly and with such unbounded energy that you young women might enjoy the op portunities and privileges which you accept today so naturally that it hardly appears to you that conditions might be entirely different, if he had not lived and labored for you. We shall not, however, forget others, both living and dead, who in their several spheres did their part during those early days heroically for the upbuilding and development of this college. Possibly no institution any where has a finer. or nobler heritage than your college possesses. For this reason I find it impossible to put away from me on this anniversary oc casion the feeling that we have met to consecrate and dedicate our lives to making more and more effective as the years go by the great work the beginnings of which were wrought by others. It is my sincere hope that it is in this spirit and with this purpose that we enter upon the exercises today. "The session upon which we have just entered, it sterns to me, has for us large promises. The enrollment about one hundred more than at any similar period of any other ses sion. Counting the children in the training school, there are engaged in educational work here each day nhnnt 1.200 neonle. This feature The meeting of the county commis sioners Monday and Tuesday was given over largely to the transaction of routine business, such as passing upon bills, receiving reports from the different departmetns of the county government, etc. The matter of widening the Spring Garden road from the city limits to the Masonic and Eastern Star home, whichhas been before the board for several months, came UP again and the petition was granted. The road wav nroner is to have a uniform width of 50 feet, with a six-foot side walk on either side, making the en tire width 62 feet. The coard conceled the $200,000 of bonds voted by Morehead and Gil mer townships three years ago to aid in building the Greensboro, Northern and Atlantic railroad, the promoters of the proposed road hav ing failed to carry out their part of the contract. The bonds were to have been delivered to the railroad company tomorrow in the event the company had built the road and was running a regular schedule of trains into Greensboro. A survey was as far as the company ever got in the direction of building a railroad. Mr. C. H. Anderson, the county demonstration agent, was instructed to prepare an exhibit of Guilford county farm products for the state fair at Raleigh. The chairman of the board was authorized to have ANOTHER HOSPITAL IS : PLANNED FOR GREENSBORO. UATTERS OF INTEREST TO THE HEADERS OF OTB ; PATRIOT FAR AND NEAR, For i some time the question of building another hospital in Greens boro has been discussed , and at meeting of physicians and other rep resentative citizens Tuesday night the movement took definite form. It was decided that another, hospital is needed in this city and that it should be built as early as possible. The meeting was held in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce and was presided over by Mr, E. P. Whar ton, with Mr. F. C. Boyles as secre tary. Amo5g those who JMned in the discussion were: Rev. Dr. C. W. Byrd, Rev. Dr. Melton Clark, Rev. R. Murphy Williams, Dr. J. A. Williams, Dr. C. W. Mbseley, Dr. H. H. Dodson, Dr. J. W. Long, Dr. J. L. Mann, Mr. R. R. King and Mr. A. Li. Brooks. There were suggestions that the new institution should be a union Prot estant hospital, to be built and sup ported by the Protestant denomina tions of the city, as St. Leo's is con ducted by the Catholic Sisters of Mercy. It was made plain, however, that the movement for a new hospital is not to be considered in any sense as a protest against St. Leo's hospital, the work of Which was highly praised by those taking part in the discus sion. Mr. R. R. King, one of the trustees of the estate of the late Moses Cone, whose will provides for the erection at some future date of a million dollar hospital in Greensboro, gave assurance that the plans of the Cone estate would not be affected in any manner by the erection of such a a heavy plank hospital as is now proposed.

' . Banks, trust companies and finan cial houses of New York, fearful of a sudden break in values, have ap plied pressure on stock exchange houses to diminish if not entirely end the riot of speculation. Many stock exchange houses responded to that pressure by notifying their clients that they would have to double the amount of their margins in these specialties. When the demand, for more mar gin was made many buyers were un able to comply with it and a wave of selling orders swept over the ex change, carrying stocks down from 4 to 15 points. Official cognizance of the situation was taken by the stock exchange at a special meeting of the governing committee. It was the unanimous belief of the committee that some thing should be done at once to curb speculation. The demand for more margin seemed to be sufficient, for the first step, so the committee decided simply to sound a warning by calling the attention of all stock exchange members to certain resolu tions already In force and, which are aimed at undue speculation.
