M'ltfER LOAN FUND. The alumnae of the North Caroli na State Normal and Industrial Col lege have undertaken the raising of 150,000 to be used as a loan fuud, to nrnvthtr atnitanta in mpinnrv nf Dr. Mclver, founder and first president of the college. The plan adopted for securing this money is to have the alumnae of each county raise such amounts as thon hintr (hox7 pan t.hn nmnnnt IIU.UA WWW, " raised by any one county to be" used only by girls from that county. . - X WO traveling secretaries were em ployed by the Alumnoe Association, to visit the various counties, organ ize local associations and aid the mem bers of these associations in making plans for rais ng their part of the fund.' ..." Miss Etta Spier, as field secretary, visited Anson county and called for a meeting of former students of the college and all other persona inter ested. On account of poor atten dance at this meeting no attempt at organization was made. Today An son county is one of the ten vi-ritetf counties whose alumnae have taken no steps toward doing their part of this great work. At the last annual meeting the association released the field secretaries, thus leaving the re. ' mainder of the work entirely to th alumnae. We, the alumnae of An son countv jnust wake ud to our du tj; and show our loyalty to our alme mater, our own home county and our beloved old North State. ruuowiug ia uie secouu auuuai ie uui fa ui uui uctu Dt-vicmi v. uiauc commencement May 23rd, 1910. "It has seemed wise that the second an nual report 01 your t ieia secretary snooia not only contain a brief summary of this year's work, but also include what has ' thus far beeiuaccotn pi ished for the Mclver Loan Fund. So in the following report 1 have in a brief manner told of the hopes, ambitions, disappointments, and results o' the work of (he Alumnae Association. During the summer and fall of 190? Misses Dull and Spier, acting as Fiek Secretaries of 1 he State Normal and n dustrial College Alumnae Association, visited fifteen counties in the state. 7 Misf Dull visited eight and Miss Spier seven Local Alumnae Associations were organ ized and the pian of raising the'clver Loan Fund explained- In 1908 and '01 twenty-three counties were visited Ii 1909 and '10 the Field Secretary visited thirty counties, and appointments will five other counties were ucsucc sstully attempted. Thus we now have in th state fifty-eight local alumnae associa tions and sixty-eight counties have been visited. This means we have band d to gether, and in close touch with each oth er, 1 nndreds of young women in all parts of the state who are keenly interested aud earnestly working tor,, the great philan thropic movement that the Mclver Loan Fund represents. v To prove that this is true these county alumnae associations have pledged 2)0 to be raised and used as the Mclver Loan Fund. Of course the future will show how earnest and sincere are the alumnae in redeeming these pledges. Wr have often been discouraged and disap pointed, but others who have worked along these same lines i a raising the Alumnae Loan and 'Scholarship Fund en tourage and support us from the results so far accomplished.

' Mooresville Dispatch, 3uth. , At 15 or 20 minutes to 12 o'clock last night Mrs. Paisley, wife of Rev. S. A. Paisley, was arcused lrom her slumbers by some one walkiag across the front porch of their homeJn the south end of town. Mr. Pdi-tley was sleeping soundly, but was finally awakened and told of the noise on the porch. He went to the beH door and called to know who was there but there being no answer be open ed the door to peer out, when behcl l he espied a wee bundle of fl?sb and blood laid at his front door. It is a pretty, blue-eyed, black-haired baby girl, and was dressed in a long lawn dress. Beside it lay a small bundle with another dress in it, and pinned to the child was "the following note and names: "Virginia Catherine, born July 26, 1910. " "For Mr. and Mrs. Paisley: "People tell me that you two taro good aud kind. If s take my bby and raise it as your own, and may God's blessings rest on you and yours through time and eternity. . As good blood as there is in North Carolina run3 through baby's veins. " A Moeher " . Mr. and Mrs. Paisley have not yet decided what they will do with their charge, but it goes without saying that they will be kind to it Mr. Paisley recently came here frcm Virginia, having accepted th? pas torate of the Second Presbyterian church. They have no children. The incident has caused consider able talk on the streets today. About 11 oMjck last night a negro called at the Commercial hot 1 and engaged a room for a "lady," stating that he would be back in a few minutes whence was assured that he could get quarters. In less than an hour the woman appeared at the hotel and was showed to a room by Mr. Flow ers, the proprietor. She remained closeted until this morning at 9 o'clock, .when she left town on the Winston train. She was very hand some, was about 22 years of age, was dressed in a becoming suit of blue and wore a big brown hat. Before leaving she gave to one of the hotel porters a note addressed to Mr. Pais ley, which stated that she had given the baby some whiskey and that she hoped that it had no evil effects. The w in registered as Mrs. Smith of Roanoke. It is pretty certain that the woman who left the baby with the minister is the some that stopped at the hotel for the night. It was very wet and disagreeable. ",No ef fort was made to apprehend the woman who deserted the pretty littl- taby and just what disposition will- be made of the youngster is yet to be determined.

The organist at the elderly minister's church was an ambitious young lady who wished to make a good impres sion on the young visiting pastor. Now the sexton who blew the or gan for the young lady was in the habit of stopping when be thought the voluntary had been long enough. To avoid such an awkward ending on this occasion, she wrote him a little note and handed it to him. Supposing it an 4 announcement for the pulpit, the sexton, in spite of .the' young lady's frantic gestures, handed it to the young pastor. - This is what he read.

' ' Saving at in 1asting at An Old Saying, This penny wise and pound foolish policy is still practiced by some farmers when they go to buy a farm implement. They ask the price. Quality is not con sidered; nothing but price. If one mower is cneaper by $5.00; yea, even by $1,00, perhaps 50c, he will buy it. Possibly he uses it one season. Next year he wants a new blade, some guards, an M448 or a Gill. If the party is in business that he bought it from he probably goes to him for repairs and says: "I want so and so." "Well, I will have to telegraph to Kalamazoo for them; 75c for telegram, please; express 90c." "My land! man, that eats a fellow up. How soon can I get them?" "Three or four days," says the dealer "What? Why, my grass needs cutting now." If that farmer had purchased a ..
