Ure associates In the International Student Movement -when he said: "The Mott Meetings re-doubled the force, the activities, oad energies of all department? of the T. It C. A." Other than his sane and straight forward appeals to grip hi* immedi ate hearers, John R. Mottt hae the capacity to caM ?tudente to social and religions rerrice. He left his Impress on University students. Re sponaire to the meetings, 400 atj^ dente affixed their signature to this pledge: "It Is my purpose, pay what It ooet, to he a sincere follow er of Jesus Christ/' Many students were seised with a passion for ser ?. and 'boys hare sip pealed to the Y. M. C. A. for Jobs in community work, leaders of Bible groups, and work In other fields of service in the Tillage and vicinity. President Ed ward K. Graham's addrsae, "A New Start," was an added impetus to the movement tor social and religious expansion. His address has been supplemented by talka in Chapel by the vari oris student leaders in the departmental work of the Y. M. C.

Hilary fashion has given rl?e to-two sflwU which are often to be ter ved In the newest importa tions, and in original American mod ela. ft nf|r "ba mentioned that al though the American costumf de signer may ?0 have rcnchea the ?tag* of excelleace "which the Paris ian holds theVT?iat designer ha< Tfcere 1? little choice between a fine domestic and, a flse Imported hat in the excellence of taste displayed. | ^ One of the military hats Is*he tri I come, although the majority qX its adptatlons are entirely peaceful in' their Buggeatlons. They ere low, uneven and often trimmed out of i ail resemblance to thqlr Inspiration as. for instance, one pretty tricorno which came here on the Jast steames from Parle. It was waved up to a greater height on one aide than on the other and was covered complete ly with violet?. Lest one' miss the three corners through the softness of outline, these were marked by a rosebud set at each of the points. Very mixed are some of the mili tary fashions Just now. Woman seizes upon a regimental style be cause it is picturesque and becom ing and it troubles her not at* all that German. Rusaian, English, and American military emblem? aro Jumbled In hopeless Vonfnslon In he* spring attire. From the French of ficer's court is borrowed the choker collar, the black bTaid that trims it suggeata West Point, Dangling tassels on the coat are truly Prus sian In suggestion and becauKe the i Cossack style of millinery is partic ularly fetching on femininity it ha? been adopted as the popular style of head-gear and Is carried out in' Belgian blue. Hessian green or Frenchified black and white, with a j fine disregard for consistency. Even tho boot is military and Milady ac tually wears brass Cottons on her foot-fear?shining tfbratfs buttons with the American ?Mr* thereon, to add a touch of mertcan patriot Ism to her foreign military decora tions. At a period whsn nearly every wo an of nearly every*^.?flaas wears shoe? as perfect aji she can afford to have them. It Is soarcely necessary to (no!ude .footwear anions accesso Whenever potible the tops of the boots match the material, or at the color of tha tailored salt. And H those tops do not laoe at th" front, the lace at the ianer tide of the foot, t91 large iaotng have come to again after fifteen years of Via??.

J# F. Bruton, Esq.. Wltarn, N. C. Dear Sir: Her owl tli plsu? Had enclosed cir cular which explains itself. Thl? Is put oot after careful considera tion end I believe thoroughly shows the. t the farmer's Intereat Is more, involved than '-Vg. ^ The oommonltj # is produced 1? In vol ?) C'c ,wnt ont with the urgent u. that it will be read by those who can reach the former an* amplify upon what la tried to be shown, which is, in brlof: 1. That almost any land In our section can produce bright tobacco, and hae done so to an extent of ov or-preduotlon. S. That the Increase, to an a mount beyond consumption, has come about in the cotton-raisin t section. 8. That on aocount of two lerp crops, the surplus now on hand is , all that* can be cared for, and any further over-production will bring, about eerlous consequences, especial) ly to the farmers. That as the Cli Belt can only raise tobacco, and aa the ootton sec tion is where the production haa so largely lnoreased this section should for lte Interest, curtail planting, as compared with the lost two years, to a very considerable degree. 5. That the over-production this I year decreased the value of the crop} about one-third. 6. That a moderate crop, which can be properly cared for, for 1915 will bring much more money than a large crop which will mean over production of an article of w&lchi there is now all the surplus that can) be properly cared for. 7. That the high price of all food stuffs, whleh la likely to continue for some time, should give farmers every incentive to make home sup plies first, rather than spending all their energies and taking long chances in the over-production of tobaoco.

Ha Is b^liiilsi to glva an Moouot of himself On January ti+L ha cot on tU Job, Be fore tU? month vw over firings tt gan to d?an op a little and a ?at of modern ordlnanoee on the matter of slaughter boMM, ebbetolrs and the handling of meat*, w?i writ ten on tho statute books. Nonr On varlows minister? of the dty kin* up the matter of bealtL anKation, and It ie expected tow quite a number of them will, by mean? of sermons, lectures and Informal talks, preeeet thte mat ter to their people. The matter of regulating tlaught er booses and abattoir* deals mi nutely with the aanitary condition of the premlees and wltb the sere ing of the slaughter houses and oth er plaoee where meat Is bandied, stored or offered for sale. Strict notice alto is taken In regard to gen eral cleanliness around the premi? and personal cleanliness of thoee who handle the meat, while not little attention 1? given to the health In cm of the animal that Is slaughter ed. Persons suffering from tiber culosis or persons who hare recently suffered from typhoid ferer In any ot?lte forma or from any other com municable disease, are not allowed to handle meat. To show the approral with wMeb steps of progress met in Henderson It 1? only neoswary to call attention to the fact that before thie rigid eet of ordinances governing slaughter Rouses, abattoirs and the slaughter ing of anlmaH, wsa passed, a meet ing of all the butchers In the dty iras held In the ofltoe of Dr. D C. AShber. health officer for the dty and county, and the entire situation was gone over with the butchers, the latter exprsselsg entire satis faction with reference to the set of ordinances as a whole. - Por some time there has been no juertlon about Henderson being one erf the coming. Tire, wide-awake towns in the State. With the open ing up of an active, progressive health department making war on Insan Kation and preventable di* saises, Henderson elso bids fair to establish^ a reputation as a health ful dty. "We venture this prediction that <!t will pay a number of towns In thle State to keep thdr eye on the health work In Henderson and Vance county. IN MIMORUM. On fibmit Hth tli?
