Anlv two families in every hun

f L in the care of the Associa-
nr for Improving the Condition
f the Poor this summer, were
fLffht to poverty through in-
Lperance. The percentoge

is indeed, surprisingly small,
ft should disturb that prosper-
ic; complacency which sees in
no-erty only or mainly the pen-
i itv of wanton misdeed. The as-
crc^a^ion’s report for 1909 show-
tliat intemperance, impijson-
desertion, “shiftlessness
^n^'inefficieney,’' all told, ac
counted for not 13, per cent of
(hose brought to want.
The figures for that year show
ed that 65 per cent of the pover^.
ty was due to two causes—sick-
jiess and unemployment. This
summer the two causes account
for 68 per cent of the poverty
noted, and 43 per cent, or nearly
half, was due to sickness alone.

Just now the Charlotte Observ
er is engaged in an argumeiit
with the Rev. Dr. Jonathan dal-
loway, of the Associate Reform
ed Presbyterian church, about
the style of conyeyancie used by
the Prophet Elijah in his ascent
to heaven. The Observer hav
ing declared as matter of fact
that Elijah was transported in a
chariot of fire, r,)r. Gaiioway,
who is a member of the board
of directors of the Theological
Seminary of the Seceders, asked
for the piroof, asserting that ac
cording to the Scriptures, “Elija
went up by a whirlwind into
heaveii.” Per contra, as the
lawyers say, The Observer insists
that “it is a fact also that as Eli
jah and Elisha walked and talk
ed ‘there appeared a chariot of
fire and horses of fire, ’ and de
clares “Elijah disappeared, sit
ting in the chariot, and borne on
the wings of the wind is a per
fect picture to our mind.

Destroys Two Acres in:
Week.
Army worms have m arched in
to Wake county. Road Supervi
sor Wiggs yesterday told how
they destroyed tv/o aci es of cot
ton belonging to Mr. Hillery
Johnson in Barton’s Creek town
ship.
“Last Sunday,” sidd Mr.
Wiggs, “Mr. Johnson observed
these worms on two or thriee
i stalks of cotton. Now they have
eaten two acres and tha ground
is,covered with them. The field
puts one in mind of a large spi
der web.”
Asked describe the army
'Tfey iile iSbout^s^ i)ieh and a;
half ^hd about as big a,ro^
as a broom straw. They ar^
greeh with ia biack streak run
ning iG(p and down their baiics. ’^
Mr,. Wiggs; stated further th^t
ihese woi'nis moved about with
great .ejnery, goirisf from stalk to
stalk, remaining- at eaich long
enough to strip it of leaves ^nd
leave it in a desolate, barren con
dition.' '■ \
Mr. Wiggs says that from per
sonal observation, he- considers
that one way to break the inva
ding march pf these destructive
pests is to dig a ditch aruand the
field in which they are or-served.
After they have eaten up the
leaves at their command they
will rftove onward, but wiien
they come to the ditch they will
fall into it j^nd cannot get ouf:.
The, army worm is a problem
and it is hoped that some eft’ect-
ive way to eradicate them entire
ly will be devised.
