S. biological sur vey. Dr. Grange’s criticism marked the opening session of the Ameri can Game conference at the Hotel Pennsylvania. He said that, whet the biological survey receives re ports that surplus rabbits are en dangering; farmers’ crops the sur . vey sends out forces of men to pot son them "Poisoning is the most wastefu most uneconomic, and worst dis position’ that can be made of an} bird or animal,” he exclaimed. Th< meat of the poisoned animal can not be -used for food. He said th< rabbits Would provide food foi hungry families. Most: of the session was devotee to scientific discussions regardinf conservation of American gam< birds, particularly waterfowl. "If in three years we have erepi from 40th to first place by drop ping expenditures from $28,S00 000 to $17,000,000,” says Attor ney General Brummitt, "there would seem to be no exigent neec for an effort to improve scrool .fa cilities.” There isn’t, Dennis, un less along with tjiem there is some effort made to sustain schopl fa culties.

When as! how she obtained the appoint in “Good poker play, is Why the Sadden Change to Liquid Laxatives? Doctors have always recognized the value of the laxative whose dost can be measured, and whose action eats be thus regulated to suit individual need. The public, too, is fast returning to the use of liquid laxatives. People have learned that a properly pre pared liquid laxative brings a perfect movement without any discomfort at the time, or after. The dose of a liquid laxative car be varied to suit the needs of tht individual. The action can thus be regulated. It forms no habit; yon need not take a “double dose" a da> or two later. Nor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The wrong cathartic mag often it more harm than good. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is s prescription, and is perfectly safe Its laxative action is based on senna —a natural laxative. The bowels will not become dependent on this form of help.

UIZZINfcSS relieved by Black-Draught "I decided to. take Thedford’s Black-Draught, as I had been hav ing bilious spells,” writes Mr. Charles E. Stevens, of Columbus, Ind. “When I get bilious, I fed sleepy and tired and do not feel like doing my work. It is hard to tell how I feel, but I do not fed good. I get awfully dizzy. I know then that I had better take some thing. After I found how good Black-Draught is, that is what I have used. I guess it rids me of the bile, for .1 feel better—don’t feel like* I am dropping off to sleep «very time I sit down.

Clubs Celebrate 25th Anniversary The twenty-fifth anniversary of the founefing of 4-H Club work is being celebrated tins year in North Carolina. ' ] Club leaders are moulding their anniversary program to fit the na tional recovery program and make' the 2Sth year of club work be a demonstration of its value to farm boys and girls, said L. R. Hadrill, club leader at State College. The teaching of thrift and an ap nm-ration of the everyday things . of life, instruction and practice in , the growing of animals, the keep ing of accurate records on the work _ done, and a training in leadership and citizenship are among the prin cipal features of the club work. Great emphasis is laid on the value of maintaining one’s health and taking care of the body by : proper diets and other health habits. The recreational side of life is also recognized as an important factor in making rural boys and girls hap pier. The first 4-H club in North Carolina was organized in Hertford county in 1909 by Dean I. O. Schaub, who was at that time State leider of club work. The club, with about a dozen members, was known as the Boys’ Corn Club. In the first quarter century of its life, the movement has grown into the 4-H Clubs and expanded to all parts of the world, helping farm boys and girls everywhere to a more abundant living. There are 30,000 active members in North Carolina and close to 1,000,000 in the United States, said Mr. Harrill. Twenty-five years have brought many changes in club work, but al ways these changes have been to better help solve the problems con fronting agriculture and home making. From the original idea of growing corn, the club movement has reach ed out to take in practically every phase of rural life through the teaching of better farm and home practices by the demonstration method. BRIEF NEWS ITEMS A gross income of $313.45 was secured by Paul Lyerly, 4-H club boy of Granite Quarry, Rowan County, from 30 baby chicks pur chased last winter. When J. R. Wallace of Hickory, Catawba County opened his trench silo recently to begin feeding, he found the ensilage in perfect con dition. None needed to be dis carded, he said. Alert farmers are demanding that dolomitic limestone be used in their fertilizers this spring in lieu of inert sand and other filler, according to recent reports. Catawba County cotton growers will average about $11 an acre for the land which will be retired from cotton production in 1934. Burley growers in Haywood County are signing the tobacco reduction contract, reports the farm agent, and say it is something that should bo done even though the government had not aided them. The North Carolina Jersey Cat the Club will meet at Newton Ca tawba County, on Washington’s birthday, February 22. Cumberland County cotton growers will plant an increased acreage to wilt seed this season. In Beaufort County, 1,5 68 to bacco growers signed reduction contracts which cover 97 percent of the acreage planted to the crop i in the county. Perquimans County cotton grow ers rdeived over $6,000 last week as loans on their option cotton. The low temperature of recent -»wVs has killed oats and seriously injured the barley and wheat crop' of Burke County. Several cars of beef cattle fed by C. A. Brown of Cleveland in Row in County paid for their feed and have provided him with between 700 and 1000 tons of manure. The second cooperative order for 'espedeza seed was placed last week Sy Macon County farmers when 46 men ordered $.000 pounds. Traveling Around America Photo Grace Line HONORING THE BLACK CHRIST in£iOiL eiauumieiy uecunucu canopies Guatemalan Indians are oearing images of the Black Christ, their native aaint, to a plantation fiesta in celebration of the completion of the harvest This saint dates back to the Conquest, when the Spanish priests, unable to convince aboriginal tribes that a white god could be di vine. invented the Black Christ. At this particular fiesta two images >f the saint were honored. Accord ingly a formal introduction took place oefore the 'telebration The two mages, surrounded with artificial lowers and enclosed in a glass-fronted iox. were placed in canopies decorat 'd with bright colored tissue paper. These canopies mounted on hand >o!es and legs were carried from op josite directions by two groups of Indians to a pre-arranged meeting place. Upon meeting, the canopies were* tilted until their tops touched, ind the images vere thus introduced. ine ceieorauon oegan alter uetiit when a bell summoned Indians from neighboring plantations to join the procession. The fireworks bearers took the lead f' 'lowed by the marimba players, the two canopies and the celebrants carrying lighted candles. When this weird parade came to an end, the canopies were set down in front of the ranch house, giant candles were set in a Pickering semi-circle before them, and the Indians, one by one knelt before the images while skyrockets sent sprays of stars across the midnight sky. Then the marimbas struck up. the pulque jugs were opened, the dancers began their strange bouncings and bobbings, and the fiesta continued till daybreak. To witness such a celebration is the ambition of most travelers visiting Central America on weekly cruises between our two coasts, for these fiestas reveal superstitions and cus toms thousands of years old. JOHN JOSEPH GAINES. M-D-fT GOOD TREATMENT Very few people who escape nas al infections in winter. Such dis tressful conditions too. To feel "shivery” for a day—you just can’t get warm. You ache in the mus cles a little and sneeze at intervals I—slight burning in the nasal pass ages—Oh, you know what I mean —you are "taking cold.” You hate to hunt up the doctor when you are not exactly sick,—and yet Well, the time is ripe for action on your part. If you are going to try to fight it out yourself. If your bowels are not regular, take mild laxatives to start things. Milk of Magnesia, mineral oil, cas cara—anything that is not severe in effect; harsh medicines are not necessary. Stay in the house for a day or more; keep the surface of your body warm and comfortable; eat soft, well-cooked food, with plenty of fruit; drink twice as much water as you formerly did. Get this one bottle of medicine: Have ohe druggist put two drain of turpentine in a two-ounce bot tle, and fill the bottle with oil of Eucalyptus. Label it "for exter nal use.” Take this bottle to your bed room: wet a cloth with it and pin around your neck, so that the va por from it will enter your nostrils all night long. Breathe all of it you can. There is nothing better for the nasal germs than oil of eu calyptus—an old, respectable drug, made from the eucalyptus or "fev er-tree” of the south. This should break up any ordi nary cold. But if your trouble started in with a pronounced chill, see your doctor at once, and obey him faithfully. Don’t depend oi home remedies. Cold has long been known as "checked secretions.” Start those secretions—perspiration bowels and kidneys—and correct your cold. Why The Preacher Preached Too Long A new preacher recommended by the Pulpit Committee stood in his pulpit one Sunday morning .to preach. He spoke but a short time, about five minutes in all, and much to the chagrin of the Committee said little of value. The people of the congregation were greatly wrought up. The Pulpit Commit tee waited upon him. He apologiz ed, stating it was probably his need of teeth that caused him to be mis understood the Sunday morning before. So to overcome this committee sent off and purchased some false teeth. The teeth came and the pastor was happy. After a few adjustments, his versatility and preaching ability seemed to increase a hundred per cent. He talked twice as long as before. And at the prayer meeting he did not know when to stop. Again the congregation com plained and the Pulpit Committee waited upon him once more, and asked him why he talked so long and the preacher replied that he did not know, unless the new teeth made him that way. "Well,” replied the chairman of the com mittee, "For God’s sake change them.” So the preacher sent them back to the mail order house, and another set was sent him with apologies, asking that he pardon the error, women’s teeth had been sent him in the preceding order. Truth is said to be stranger than fiction, which may be be cause you don’t run across truth so often now. Astronomers claim the universe is lopsided. Considering how it seems to bump along lately, might be a good idea for somebody to get out and see if it hasn’t got a flat tire. It is claimed the people aren’t much interested in their govern ment, but anyway they read with keen interest the list of govern ment offices that are to be filled If you do something disgrace ful, everybody hears about it right off, but when you pull off some fine stunt to help your home tdwn, nobbody seems to know anything about it.
