The Chatham Record. 22. A. LONDON, Editor. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4. 1915. I , yjly"'!! THE EUROPEAN WAR. The war in Europe has now been waged for a whole year and tho pnd is not vet in sisrht. A year ago last week Germany be gan moving her armies, and just one year ago today Great BriUin declared war and entered on this the most bloody and destructive war- that has ever disgraced the human race. When the war be gan many persars confidently p edicted that it would end in a few wet k 5 cratnust in a few months, and very few thought it would h st a year. Not only have all those predictions been unful filled, but r.o man can nowpte dict with any certainty when tho end will be. So destructive has bien this war both in human li ves and in property that it seems almost impossible for it to con tinue many months lonorer, and yet it may. continue anether year or even longer. Tlrs war has been conducted on so stupendous a scale that all former wars sink into insignifi cance. Many more men have al ready been killed in the first year of this war than during the thir ty years war that raged in Eu rope several centuries ago, or even in the many vears of the wars waged by Napoleon Bona parte, which ended in his disas trous defeat at Waterloo just one hundred years ago on the 18th of last June. The human mind can not conceive the immense de struction of property, the terri ble sufferings of millions of un offending non-combatants, and the unprecedented losses of hu man lives already caused by this war in only one year. Belgium, Poland andparts of France have been laid waste and devastated. Millions of old men, women and children have been driven from their homes to starve or subsist on the charity of the world. Beautiful and populous cities have been destroyed; the country has been devastated, human be ing have been slaughtered like beasts and birds, and still the bloody work goes on with undi minished cruelty and suffering. Our people here in the United States cannot realize' the extent of this destruction and suffering. Only those in the South who suf fered from Sherman's atrocities can realize what is now being suffered in the, parts of Europe traversed by hostile armies. And for what? Why is all this unprecedented butchery and hu man suffering? Why are so many million men acting like wild beasts devouring each other? Who is to be benefited? And how? How many ot the millions who are suffering so much will gain anything? As sure as there is a just God the man or men who brought on this horrible war will be held to a strict account in the next world even if they es cape their merited punishment in this world. Such vast armies have never before been dreamed of. Even Xerxes mighty host with which he attempted to invade Greece was not to be compared to the immense armies now confront ing each other in Europe. Thus far more than twenty million men have been enrolled in these armies. The population of North Carolina is a little over two mil lion men, women and children, and yet ten times that number of armed soldiers are trying to kill each other in Europe. Al ready over two million men have teen killed or disabled in the in numerable battles that have been thus far fought, and more than that number have been captured and are held as prisoners. It staggers the mind to consider such immense figures and the terrible sufferings endured. These dead ancl disabled soldiers were the bone and sinew of their re spective countries, nearly all be ing young men in the vigor and strength of young manhood. Is it not horrible to think of? How fortunate and favored are the people of the United States that our country is not engaged in this wild orgy of death and, destruction. Thus far we have escaped the horrors of this war in Europe, and we hope, that we may continue to be safe" un der Divine guidance and the wis dom of our sane and safe Chief Magistrate. Haiti had another of its many revolutions and massacres last week. . The President of that un happy island had 160 political prisoners executed one day and this so infuriated the inhabitants that they seized him the next day and cut him to pieces and dragged his dismembered limbs about the streets, like so many xi Id beasts. Order was restored only by the landing of United States marines and sailors, who disarmed the mob and also the Haitien soldiers. This is another illustration of the fact, long known, that the inhabitants of that so-called re public are incapab.e of self-government, and ought to be gov erned by some foreign govern-, ment, but we do not wish the United States to undertake that task. The many dangerous grade crossings on the railroad between Cary and Raleigh ought to be abolished, and we are pleased to note that the Raleigh News and Observer and Times are earnest ly urging this to be done. The distance is only about six miles from the first crossing ne r Cary to the last crossing near Raleigh, and yet the public highway cross es the two railroads (Southern and Seaboard) which have par allel tracks some half dozen times. It is said that eleven persons have been killed and one badly hurt at those crossings within the past five years, and there have been innumerable narrow escapes. This is one of the most trav elled highways leading into Ral eigh, and it is the one travelled by persons going from this coun ty, and for this reason the peo ple of Chatham are especially in terested in having these danger ous crossings abolished. Hun dreds of loads of country produce are hauled every year from this county to Raleigh on that high way, and many droves of cattle are driven thereon from this county, and every trip is attend ed with much danger at these crossings. The electrocution last Friday of Charles Becker was the clos ing scene of one of the most not able criminal cases ever known in this country. Three years ago (in July, 1912,) a noted gambler, named Rosenthal, was shot and killed as he came out of a hotel in the city of New York. Imme diately four men jumped into an automobile and dashed away, not before however the number of the car was seen. After a dili gent search the men were found and after a sensational trial were executed. During their trial it developed that they were hired to commit the -murder by a prom inent lieutenant of the police, named Charles Becker. The mo tive for his crime was proved to be that he and Rosental had been partners in gambling and that he had received large sums of mon ey for giving Rosenthal police protection, but they had a quar rel and Rosenthal had informed on Becker, and, thus in order to save himself from prosecution. the latter hired men to kill him. Blecker had used every means the law allows to escape punish ment and had resorted to everv expedient possible to avert his fate, but, at last, after three years, justice has triumphed and this noted criminal properly pun ished. The Colored Canning Club. From the Charlotte Observer. In Anson county the colored people have been encouraged to take up the canning club work. In that, Anson has struck a good lead.- The colored people in every county in North Carolina should be inspired in the same direction. This particular line of endeavor is -suited to their environment and they have peculiar opportun ities for converting waste into profit. Professor Faison, who is enlisting the interest of the An son county colored folks in this work cites the case of one color ed man who had no garden at all when he enrolled as a club mem ber. His daughter set to work however, and this year he is cul tivating an excellent garden with both summer and winter vege tables. The canning club offers great possibilities for the colored rural population and it is a won der this fact should have been so generally overlooked. Open Air Schools. - From the N. C. Health Bulletin. "Have yo i noticed how many sleeping porches are being con structed in the city of Raleigh?" astced an observing visitor in the city recently. "It's the same way all over the country and I'm glad to see it.' ' he said. "It is wonderful to note how the atti tude has changed in the last year or two regarding sleeping porch es, fresh air sleeping, and I might add open air schools. Why, no longer thvn two years ago, the sight of a sleeping porch in connection with any home was regarded as an open sign of tu berculosis in that home but to day it means a different thing. It means that the family's ideas of health and efficiency are not the old kind. They believe that the best conservation of health is the prevention of disease, and it's my opinion that dollar for dollar, the sleeping porch is the best health investment that a home can have. If it s second to any it is the bath room, but even then it has the advantage of be ing built and maintaind much cheaper than a bath room. "It's a fact," said he, "that in a few years a house will be cou sidered more complete wi'hout a bath room than without its fresh air arrangements. . And the same reformation that is rapidly tak ing place in the homes as to fresh air apartments will soon be seen in all the schools. All anaemic and abnormal children will soon he taught in open air schools, but I don't see why in this country and with this climate, every school might not be made an open air school.' Recommends Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. "I never hesitate to recommend Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," writes Sol Wil liams, merchant, Jesse, Tenn. "I sell more of it than of any other prepara tions of like character. I have used it myself and found it gave me more relief than anything else I have ever tried for the same purpose." Ob tainable everywhere, adv The Chatham Rabbit. From the Charlotte Observer. Editor Ike London of The Siler City Grit has made up his mind that the Chatham county rabbit shall be exploited at the state fair, to the end that the public may come into a better apprecia tion of Chatham's proud asset. Drawing from some of the facts on shipments from Siler City alone, he shows that in five years nearly 115,000 rabbits were ship ped to outside markets, the best year having been 1912, when the shipments amounted to 26.060. The Grit states as an indication of the value of the rabbit crop to the farmer boys of Chatham that the rabbits net them 10 cents each. The Grit declares that Chatham is not ashamed of her rabbit crop, it being merely side issue and a source of ready money. The Grit, itself, uses the rabbit where newspapers in other parts of the country would use the rooster, and one of the flour mills of Chatham has a brand of patent flour called 'The Rabbit," the sacks bearing the picture of a Molly cotton tail. Notwithstanding the July rabbit hunt lei by a judge of the supe rior court, The Grit gives out the assurance that the rabbit crop this fall "should exceed the num ber shipped last winter.' The Clerk Guaranteed It. "A customer came into my store the other day and said to one of my clerks, 'have you anythiDj? that will cure diarrhoea?' and my clerk went and got him a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and said to him. 'if this rinps nnt euro you, I will not charge you a cent fer n. eo ne iook it nome ana came back in a day or two and said he was cured," writes J A.

Despondency Due to Indigestion. 1 ''About three months aeo when I was suffering from indigestion which caused neaaacne ana aizzy spells and made me feel tired and despondent, I began taking Chamberlain's Tablets." writes Mrs. Geo. Hon, Macedon, N.Y. "This medicine proved to be the very thing I needed, as one day's treatment relieved me grently. I used two bottles of Chamberlain's Tablets and they rid me of this trouble.
