Local Bills Held Back The senate passed and sent to the house, where it was immediately adopted, a joint resolution providing a committee of three members of the house and two from the senate to no •. tify the governor that the assembly was organized and ready to h"ar him ■ ; in joint session at 12 o’clock. Nothing could be learned today as to what local bills might be laid be fore the assembly for action. There were some who said that they had had some local matters to put before ’ the session but that they had decided to wait until the regular session of the new legislature in January. A disposition on the part of many to endeavor to make the session as short ' as possible was reported by Speaker 1 Dawson, but there were others, 1 Among them state officials, who said!1 that they would not be surprised if i :the session lasted 25 days. |< . : f r mgni nates Most of the governor’s address was 1 , -devoted to the ship and water report 1 nn dthe recommendations of the com- • Mission.

Everything to match, Is the basic i<lea of -modem dress. In its trend, follows an endless chdtn of novel effects. The latest Is for one's wrap, capelct or full length straightline coat to be styled of ex actly the same material as one's frock. But we digress from the subject under consideration, for It is of the matching blouse and scarf we would tell, such as this picture presents To wear a blouse without a scarf to match is to all tint transgress the rul-'S of this season's fashion game. 'Tis a l>it of gav colored silk which estab lishes an af'inlty between neckpjcee and blouse in the accompanying pic ture. The most popular Id nf-c of the season, according to fa-hi n's rep.at is the one of'all white with colorful trimmings. The p.-re .p-.i” rayed is of heavy white satin with tlimiuu tailor-like up the front. All rolors of the kaleidoscope are present in the silk which is used for cuffs, hip band and scarf. The length of silk used for the scarf is hemstitched, or rather plcoiod, all around. The fringe is formed of hand-knotted skeins of silk which repeat the various colors of the gay print. Of all combinations, none Is more in favor than black and white. The I white crepe tie chine blouse with white jabot, of the crepe piped with black and white printed silk, .perhaps but tons covered with the black and white, a turnover collar of the black and white print and a monogram trim on the pocket, attains to tbo ideal in j fasldeniloin. Of course there is a ; black and white scarf to match, and it repeats'the monogram on the blouse (A. IVill. Wnalnru Anwoeayor. Union.) .11*1.1 A HoTTOMl.EV pHvt wator and part truck transpor tion or longer part water and shorte part rail transportation to an ex ten that will save the people of N'ortl Carolina a larger sum annually that the $12 000,000 which it costs to ad minister our state government exclu sive of our highway development an< other permanent improvements.

He then said that the com nission had not thought it wise to •stablish port facilities without tak ng steps to insure their being used ind had recommended that the com n is-don to be appointed be empower 'd to issue $1,500,000 worth of bonds 'or establishment of ship lines. “I urge you gentlemen of the gen ial assembly,” the governor said, “to ■nact in full and complete form the tecessary legislation to put into ef 'ect the recommendation of this great ommission which looked into and ad vised us about this matter but I also 'ecommend that you provide that this egislation shall not take effect until ifter the same has been approved by i majority of the qualified voters of *To»*th Carolina at the general election n November.” “I believe that if it is submitted to he people it will .carry every county n North Carolina,” he added, “I am lot one of those who think the people :ansot understand this question.

In northern Sumatra Is trained In the famous “Dance of the Knife," since ■ the movements are the same as those I In actnal knife due’s In the one we fnw t-vo men—one j small, with a pugnacious little mus 1 , tachp, the other tall and lean and I graceful ns a greyhound—took their places at opposite ends of the dancing mat. Each drew a knife with a scorn ful gesture and threw it into the cen ter of the circle. The music took a defiant, crowing note. It sounded as if two cocks were challenging ench j other, writes Edward A. Salisbury in ; Asia Magazine. Musicians and dancers seemed to imitate some familiar ani mal of field or forest. In a wonder fully timed series of steps and ges tures the men rushed forward, back and forward again;* then, with fierce j gesticulations, they smutched up their i knives and fell to. f j The steel glittered In the sunlight : as the lighters circled about each j other, nostrils distended and eyes gleaming, until, with a sudden motion ' as swift as the spur thrust of n bnn i *um cock striking for the kill, the little j man, grasping tire knife Rrm of the ; tall one and wrenching It sidewise and : down, forced him to his knees. Then, ; just as the aggressor swung up his weapon for the death blow, the man 1 at his feet broke loose and flung away | in a desperate whirl. They closed i again and this time each managed to grip the knife wrist of his opponent They stood, breast heaving against breast, knives forced high in the air, as their bodies swayed back and forth. Then both knives fell to the ground and each man fought for the other's throat. Now the big man suddenly caught his game little enemy by the neck and wRlst, hurled him to the ground, and, grasping a knife, ap peared to plunge the weapon Into his breast. Then he proudly placed one foot on the seemingly lifeless body and swung his blade high in the air in a triumphant gesture. AVe applauded, for at no time dur ing the dance, which was as scientific as a fast-fought boxing match or saber duel, did the performers for a single movement lose time with the music, j - Uante a Maaaive Brain J Dante was not a Nordic, as some anthropologists have asserted. But a member of the Mediterranean race. So declared Prof. *Fabio Fassetto of the University of Bologna, in a paper presented to the American Association of Anatomists at their taeetlng in Buf falo, N. Y. The evidence Is from a recent examination of the bones of {he great poet. . The most important feature of the skeleton Is the large capacity of the cranium or brain case. This is 1,700 cubic centimeters, or much more than the average even among men of high Intellect. Dante's height was aboot 8 feet 8 Inches. The shape of the bones of the head definitely Identifies Dante, according to Professor Fassetto, with the Mediterranean race, contrary to the opinions of those who believed the poet’s name and family to have been of Oerman origin. Compared with the else of his head,. Dante had a small facet the bone* show; and his features were not sym metrical. there being a marked devi ation of the nose toward the light Spinal beam showed evi«H*c-« of ar tbriUa. or latte mmatioe of the Jointa. ;/\ i IMPROVED UNIFOHI INTERNATIONAL SundaySchool T LessonT (By REV.

Lesson for August 17 JESUS CLEANSES THE TEMPLE LESSON TEXT—John GOLDEN TEXT—"My house shall bo ealled the house of prayer."—Matt. Ilill. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Loves His Father's House. JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus and the Tem ple Traders. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—Rlsht Conduot In God's House. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Reverence and Care for God’s House. I. Jesus Attending the Passover | (T. 18). He went up to Jerusalem very often to attend the various feasts. Begln nlng at the age of twelve this custom was habitual with Him to the end of ! His ministry. He was under the law | and therefore He obeyed It (Deut. j 16:10), but primarily He went up be ! cause It was His Father’s house. It ! Is Important that all people from their | youth up should make the attendance j upon the house of God a habit of their ! lives. II. The Temple Defiled (v. 14). j For the various sacrifices In the I temple many oxen, sheep and doves i were needed. Many persons came from j distant parts of the land: therefore, It I was Impracticable to bring their sae j rlflees with them, so they brought | money and bought the animals needed, i This privilege the Lord had granted to | them (Deut. 14:34-28). This exchange was necessary, bnt when evil men I used It as an opportunity for gain It { became an offense before God. If j Christ were to come to many of onr ! so-called houses of God today He 1 would find them polluted In Just as ag 1 gravattng a way. Hls purging the | temple conrts shows the need of j purity and order in all matters con ' nected with divine worship. III. Jesus Cleansing the Temple ! (vv. 15-17). • 1. Driving Out the Merchants and Animals (v. 15). Being the Lord of the temple, the very Messiah who should come to Hls temple, He had the right to cleanse It, to drive out those who polluted It. It Is not said that He used the scourge of cords but, at an.v rate, it was the symbol of au thority. ms * nniiniiiiu vv. ji>j. jiukc not ray Father's house nn house of merchandise.” Merchandise Is legiti mate In Its place. Any use of the Lord’s house other than to worship and honor Him Is to make It a place of merchandise, to pollute It. There Is great danger of a worldly spirit In truding Into the domain of religion. Men who unite with the church for temporal Interests, men who come to the house of worship with worldly matters uppermost In tholr thought, ministers who servo_as, professionals* men who bring their Ill-gotten gains to help further the work of the Lord. In fact all who do not behave properly In the Lord's house, are defiling It and therefore all such must meet His judg 8. His Zeal (v. 17). He was so completely dominated by the passion to do the will of Qod that He unre servedly gave Himself to His work. This was according to the prophecy. "The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.” We should take His act as nn example to us In the divine service hnd manifest commendable zeal. This reform did not prove permanent. A few years Inter He cleansed It again. This shows how quickly the human heart Is under the control of sin. The only permanent reformation Is that which Is wrought In regeneration. The new birth Is necessary. IV. The Jews Demanding a Sign (vv. 1R-22). They demanded of Jesus that He show His authority for such behavior. | He told them that the only sign that: would he given was His death and j resurrection. Destroying the temple and raising It tip In three days refers i to His crucifixion and resurrection. The resurrection Is an unalterable proof of His divine sonshtp (Rom. l:-4). Jesus came forth from the grave of His own power. The Jews did not want a sign. They were only finding excuses for their wickedness. Men tods "who sre demanding proof of Christ’s divinity do not really wish the proof bnt are only trying to And excuses for their sins. Jesus had the ability to Justify His ways before Qod and man. After the resurrection ths disciples remembered the words of Jesus on this occasion. This show* that no sowing of the truth shall eventually fall. This ought to be a great comfort for Sunday school teach ers and Christian workers. .
