At the Western North Carolina Con ference at Asheville last week, Senator Lee S. Overman delivered a most elo quent address on tho causes of the war, in which he stated in clear, unanswera- , ble charges the indictments against the German government. “Were I preaching a sermon tonight,” declared Senator Overman, “I should choose for my text the words, Loyalty, Service, Sacrifice! These are the message of the hour. The Stars and Stiipes have been unfurled only in righteous cause NOT ALL THE INCREASE .

The record of measles in camp showed a very defi nite relation between outbreaks of this disease and 'northers.’ Whereas the tents were closed and the stoves were set going at a top rate, the air became both hot and dry. It was dry enough to irritate the nasal mucous membrane. The ‘colds’ season was the menin gitis season, and persons with colds were most apt to contract this dis ease. Therefore the advice: ‘If you would avoid meningitis avoid cclds.’ To this end bodily comfort, waim, dry clothing, good dry shoes and socks, regular bowel movements, avoidance of overeating and of the use of alco hol, avoidance of foul air and over heated places generally, are all con ducive to safety as regards that dis ease.” ' CLEANLINESS According to the old proverb, is next to Godliness.

And yet there are lots of people who nev er avail themselves of the advantags of a bank. This bank was founded in April, 1907. Its officers and directors are men of re sponsibility and known integfrity.

November 26.—The many economies being practiced by North Carolina farmers to s ve all food possible is of no avail if he is to allow the rats and mice to make way with more food ad feedstuffs than he can save by careful economy. It is estimaU-d that the loss ,due to de struction by rats on the average North Carolina farm will pay tile tax es on that farm with some to spare. According to a bulletin received from the Unit^ States Department of Ag riculture, the destiaiction of food and property in the United States amounts to something over the combined earn ings of an army of 200,000 men. Think of what that means. Rats from old age this year, were centanarians.
