ERSKINE BOARD
SEEKS NEW HEAD
Executive Committee Will
Meet Monday to Hear
Nominations.
Dr. R. G. Miller, a member of the
executive committee of the board of
trustees of Erskine College, Due "West.
S. C, will go to Chester, S. C,
Monday to attend a. meeting of the
executive committee. The principal
matter of interest at the meeting will
be the nomination of candidates for
the presidency of Erskine College to
succeed Dr. J. S. MOffatt, who has
been president of the college for the
last ten years and who declined re
cently the position of president emer
before theTewsirPermen7in itus, duties as field agent of the
order that they may bo better informed
as to what is going on m tneir own
State, thus being better able to inform
their readers and spread the greatness
of the State over the whole land. The
first word in the way of conference with
a view of bringing about some concrete
plan will be the conference between one
railroad official and one newspaper rep
resentative, and out of that is expect
ed that something worth while will be
developed.
v In speaking of this scheme President
Hurley said: "The people of North Caro
lina do not properly appreciate the State
and it's wonderful possibilities and de
velopments. In order to do so we must
see North Carolina. My plan is to bring
about a tour of the State by newspaper
men. in order that they may see more
of the state, the things of interest, the
places of consequence and hear the
story of the States progress. Our pro
gram at the Morehead meeting of the
North Carolina Press Association is
going to be a " North Carolina" pro
gram, and I am inviting Governor Mor
rison. Josephus Daniels, Leonard Tufts,
Louis Graves and other North Carolin
ians to take part in this program
Many of our own "best minds" will also
seek to point us to a better apprecia
tion of our State, and indicate a way
bv which the newspapers may become
a mirror reflecting the wonderful
State of North Carolina, not only to
our own people to the whole nation. We
must know and appreciate our State
more, then we can and will hold her up
in all her greatness to the admiration
of the whole world. I asked Mr. ura
ham to talk this tour over with me
jso that I could have at the outset the
opinion of a practical railroad man on
the scheme. I am asking for the co
operation of the rail roads of the State,
and I am sure that every one of them
will go the limit in arranging their plan
for the development of this idea.

Too Much of a Good Thing
"It is six years since I had my
first stomach trouble. It rapidly grew
worse. My food would not digest and
I was reduced to skin and bones. My
doctor put me on a starvation diet,
and when my pains grew worse I
concluded it was too much of a good
thing. On the advice' of my druggist
I tried Mayr's Wonderful Remedy, and
am now entirely well." It is a simple,
harmless preparation that removes the
catarrhal mucus from the intestinal
tract and allays the inflammation which
causes practically all stomach, liver
and intestinal ailments, including ap
pendicitis. One dose will convince or

Denver, Colo.. June 21. Abolition of
gambling in grain futures on the Chi
cago board of trade," establishment of
co-operative producers' and consumers'
organizations and government regula
tion of corporations and monopolies,
were urged today by the American
Federation of Labor convention as a
means to combat the high cost of living.
The work of the federal trade com
mission was commended and Congress
was urged to provide funds for in
vestigation of all industries and publi
cation of statistics showing the cost
of production and marketing of all sta
ple commodities.
"If the people are in full possession
of all the facts of costs of distribution
and the profits made on the necessaries
of life, public opinion would have a
powerful effect in reducing prices, and
there would be no necessity of prose
cution under the Sherman anti-trust
law," the declaration said.
In urging the abolition of "gambling
in futures" and "unnecessary recon
signments and brokerage operations,"
the resolution said there "are too many
overturns between the producers and
consumers, which ultimately increase
the cost of living."
The convention went onl record
against legislation fixing the wages of
the workers, declaring that "if Ameri
can standards are to be governed by
laws enacted by a Congress made up
of men not alive t 'maintaining those
standards the workers of the country,
will cuffer irreparable injury by legis
lation governing their wages," '

YEARS AGO, USED
"Welcome Knights of the Mortar
and Pestle," reads the predominating
line in a painted show-window in Ca
ton'3 Drug store in honor of the pres
ence in the city of the druggists of
North and South Carolina.
1 The line attracted the attention of
Secretary F. W. Hancock, of the North
Carolina Board of Pharmacy, who or
iginated the phrase 10 years ago. Tsot
since then has it been brought into
use as a synomym for a druggist.
Mr. Hancock recalled the phrase
Tuesday as an exclamation of his own
made during a circus parade in Raleigh
10 years ago. A score of students in
a school of pharmacy were watching
a cii-cus parade when, impressed by
the concentration of the students'
minds upon the parade rather than stu
dies, he made the exclamation which
furnished a good joke for the visiting
pharmacists Tuesday.
