TTiese persons are to show good behavior annunally at ’the March term In thus writing the final paragraph |to an episode rarely dpulicated in the nnals of the State JudgeLong was Eton College, March 8.—The State championship in college basket-ball seems to be an absorbing topic in ath letic circles just now, especially in View of Elqn’s and'Wake Forest’s op posing claims for it. So far Elon has not set forth her claim to the honor and distinction in any extend^ way, preferring for the season to be over and the dust to clear away. Nok since there are many demands from various sources for a definite state ment, it is herewith succinctly given to the public. There are three ways to compute the championship: with all colleges colleges only: with the colleges which have played two games with each oth er with reference to the ciiampionship, but not more than two games. By all three of these methods, the show ing of Elon is superb. Taking the method of computing all college games in all States. Wake Forest play ed fifteen games and won eight, mak ing a percentage of .562; Eton id«yod fifteen games and won nine, nuikiiig a percentage of 600. Within the State with N. C. Colleges, Wake Forest played eleven and won seven making a percentage of 636. Elon tied this record, playing the same number nnd winning the same number, her per centage being 636; For the State championship, which includes two games with each of the following col leges, Trinity, Guilford, Wake Forest, A. & M. and Carolina, each team won six out of ten games, making a per- nindful of the fact that Gorman Pitts ! ventage of 600. ® probably precipitated-the ^st.; Further the Wake Forest corres- ht on the fateful afternoon of Jan, | po„dent said that Woke Forest had paid the penalty of death; thatjgj,g^„ superiority over every team .

At the same time, however, there was not the lightest pretense of affection between the war ring families of the village of Glen Alpinp. TBETEEI8 Read This Article and Take Better Care of The Teeth You' Hare That Are “Yours.” By Dr. I I, Holt The foundation for irregular teeth is laid before the child reaches his teens. At this ag^e in a child’s life the paren-s are responsible for his or her future welfare. To those who know the importance of the proper ;are of the first set of teeth; it seems almost impossible that people who ihink they are refined ai^d are really well posted in other matters are of ten ignorant of the fact tliat neglectcd baby teeth are followed by perma nent ones that will soon dceay and often be lapped or out of line so as to cause a disfigurement to the per son when grown up.. Why? It is seldom that a dentist has the pleasure to see a child eight years of age who has never had one or probably all of their jaw teeth so badly decayed that some of ther.i have caused the little fellow a great deal of suffering. Now, what is the cause of all this trouble and what is the result? In the first place we will say that the cause can ue traced ot- rectly to the parents who are either indifferent, ignorant or too poor to visit a dentist and have the cavities filled in their child’s teeth as they are formed. Another thing which is real ly criminal neglect in this day of enlightenment along, sanitay lives is that many parents \rill not furnish tooth brushes for their children and demand that they use them after each meal to thoroughly cleanse the teeth of all adhering particles of food. Now there is no excuse on the par ents’ part for not doing this much f'>r ErrfERS XailTEST Prof. J. B. Robetta«n Has Entered the News and Observer Auto mobile Contestv Many Friends Supt. J. B.

Our community was shocked last Saturday morning upon hearing of the death of Mrs. David H. Lashley, who had been ill but a short time. The deceased was in the thirtieth year-of her age. She leaves a hus band and seven small children, the youngest an infant, who have the sympathy of all in their great be reavement. The funeral was held at Pleasant Ilill Sunday, conducted by Rev.

TROOPS two More Regiments .Ordered to the Border to Protect the Texas Frontier. I Opponents Active Washington, March 11.—With de bate on repeal of the extmptioncla'.ise of the Panama Canal act about to beg-in in the House, interest in the outcome of the President’s request of Congress was intensified today, op ponents of the repeal displaying un usual activity. To administration leaders who have made a thoroug'i canvass of the situation, it appearei practically certain tonight that op position to the repeal would be I'ruit- le.ss. Announcement yesterday that ti e Senate Committee on Inter-Oceani: Canals had determined to await ac tion by the House before taking up the repeal controversy for consider ation created some comment in the Senate. Formal conferences' were held among Democrats, their conclusions being that there is no reason for un usual haste on thep art of the Senate and that action by the House may be awaited iinless the Sims repeal l>tll should encounter unusual delay. If the House proloung, should discuss ion of the measure unreasonably, a-i- ministration leaders in the Senate may make an effort to take initiative ac tion. President Wilson conferred on the toUs issue today with Senators Jantcs, Long March Union Ridge School will Clo.se Hat-!“5 f s.*eor^ta.

A remarl able thing about this des perate licht is the fact ihat not Jne of the combatants was under me in- fiuence of. liquor. Even Dr. HennO’5?:>e, battle-torn a;'d almost dead, refused to swallow whiskey vvlu^h was offered him, contenting himself with wetting his lips. For 15 minutes after Judge Long resumed his hearing this morning Dr. Hennessee was again on the stand. He admitted havi-g had a number of controversies about small bill.'?, bai denied bei”.^ quarrelsome. He was decided in his manner and spirited in bis replies. Mr. M. N. Hennessee told hia story calmly. He is about 54 yesiirs old, is ruddy hued, thick-set, quiet-manncr- ad with a tendency toward stolidity. He wears a eray mustache. -He clasp- j. ed his fingers together and teld his story withimt a geatare. Once he rose asd indicated where his coat'was alashsd in tlie melee. He said did not hear the language attribtit^ to his brother, and was dose te hear snyt^ff that was-sa!^'''TiijB was his first appearance as « A .a. II ~ laik in sight of victory and were defeated by five points. These solid fajts would indicate that the superiority lies with Elon in reference to any claim of Wake Forest for the chau pionship. Elon admits that Wake Forest had a fine bunch of players, clever, active, clean, but she contends that the record shows that she is en titled to the championship. Three of the colleges int he State have voted it to Elon, admitting that her quint is superior to any in the State, and agreeing with the Elon sympathizers that Wake Forest iias the next strongest team. These col leges are Trinity, Guilford and ibe A. ic M., Carolina has not been c«*»n- sulted on them atter, but sincc Eion il^eated her on her own floor, it is likely that siic too would vote mat v.r.iy. Jt must also be reinembeied that Elop played her two games wiih Carolina wlii’.e that team had its main strength ot full varsity men a-id before Taiidy and Edwards were ruled off by the University Faculty. Wake Forest played with Carolina iif ter her quint was n'aterially weaken ed, and certainly the third game with Carolina ought not to figure In the State championship, unless a third game was granted each of the claim ants. , Basket-baii enthusiasm is running high because of the fine record the Elon quint has made this year and the supporters of the game are wHl- ing to pit the big five here against a similar institution with stire confi dence of victory.

What's the use any how? That tooth will have to be taken out when he is ten or eleven years old any way. The Result: If you neglect brushing the teeth it will be just a question of time, and a short time too, until the teeth will have several cavities in them. If you neglect having the cav ities filled when they are very small the child will not permit of them be ing filled at all and the result will toothach from exposed nerves and abscessed roots.

The troops—^the Ninth and Seven- teeth Refiments—were ordered to the bordier at the request of Senator Shep pard and Representative Garner. The latter told the President there was a yood deal of cash in border banks and Americans wanted to be protect ion. Mr. Garner also said much cat tle. had disappeared recently, and reS" idents believed Mexicans were respon- sible. The request for additionai troops was made Monday; was dis- cussed at the Cabinet meeting and decided on late today by the Presi dent, who communicated his approval to the Secretary of War. Genera] Diaz and his friends here said they were not yet prepared to announce their definite purposeis, but would do so tomorrow. One of the party was Pedro del Villar, who be fore the Senate Foreign Relations Committee last week» was reported to have asked support for a counter revolutionary movement. The Mex icans denied today that they sought support or sa*iction for any levolu- tionary movement, saying their idea was a campaign of Information about Mexico and to acquaint Washington with the personality of General Diaz, so his part in subsequent events in ^^exico might be judged from a study close range. It was learned they are seeking the elimination of General Huerta and are not allied in any way with the Constitutionalists. Members of the party «iid Senator Root confeired with General Diaz in Washington last week and that Diaz came to Wash ington at the invitation of Senator Kail. Today’s orders for the dispatch of two more regiments to Texas \vill re sult in the assembly in that state of nearly 18,000 troops* more by 3,000 than the entire force of the regular army that Gener.il Shafter led into Cuba.
