London linen-draper who yearned for years for green fields and quiet streams, he retired at 50 to live on the country and. exultant in his re sultant satisfaction, was moved to write his reflections. He penned a book about fishing that made him an immortal: The Compleat Angler, or Contemplative Man’s Recreation, one of the most popular books of all time. First edition of this classic was pub lished when he was 60. Aug. 9. 1718—A human being free from personal vanity revealed herself- In a letter of this date, the second Duchesse d’Orleans. Charlotte Eliza beth of Bavaria, said: i«I must certainly be monstrously ugly. I never had a good feature. My eyes are small, my nose short and thick] my lips broad and thin. These are not materials to form a beauti ful face Then I have flaggy, lank cheeks, and long features, which suit ill with my low stature. My waist and legs are equally clumsy. Undoubt edly I must appear to be an odius little wretch; and had I not a toler ably good character, no creature could endure me. I am sure that a person must be conquror to judge by my eyes that I have a grain of wit. Such ingenuous disclaimers from the Duchesse were frequent, and brought her attention in all the gos sipy courts of Europe. They caused admirers to come from far and near to pay court to her! Aug. 9. 1642 —The country acquir ed its first "Old Grads.’’ Harvard College, first institution of higher learning in the 13 colonies, had its first commencement, and a class of nine received degrees from President Henry Dunster. who was subsequent ly forced to resign because he neglect ed the baptism of one of his children.

The Germans had deliv ered a violent attack near Hooge, sap ped up close to the line, and launch ed a torrent of liquid fire pumped from machines and ignited in its pas sage. The combination of artillery bombardment. liquid fire, trench mortars, and bombs naturally was irresistible .and a British battalion Iwas wiped out!. Germans (carried the first line, and British fell back. 'Thereupon the Germans began to shell the region and turned the Zou ave Food into a death trap. Before the games could be consoli dated. British G. H. Q. launched a counter attack on this date. Over a horrible no-man’s land, strewn with barbed wire-entanglements and the bodies of unburied dead, British in fantry swept forward. The range of their own artillery gradually length ened. the men poured into the Ger man trenches, and with bayonet and bomb cleared them. Throughout the day the strenaele continued. By night fall, the British had restored the Hooge part of the front, and more than 2.000 of their men had joined the dead. For days thereafter the recently quiescent western front rumlhled with activity. WRITING WRONGS You’re in error if you believe— That snakes charm birds. They don’t, J. P. Ewing.

When did the State attempt to drain Mattamuskeet Lake? 4. When was the Lancaster method of teaching schools introduced into North Carolina? 5. How much reward did England offer for signers of the Declaration of Independence? 6. When was Fayette County form ed and how long did it exist? ANSWERS 1. In 1695 Soum Carolina recom mended to the Crown “That North Carolina be annexed and put under the care and inspection of His Ma jesties Governor of Virginia.” 2. The battle of Moore’s Creek bridge was fought February 27. 1776, between the Tories who had gather ed at Fayetteville and the provincial militia. At first the prisoners were taken to Halifax. Paroles were grant ed to some to return to their homes; others were paroled to certain coun ties and some were required to leave the colony. About the end of April those remaining were sent to Read ing, Pa., and Staunton, Va., to be held until an exchange agreement could he worked out with the British. 3. In 1836 by a special act an ap propriation of SB,OOO wajs provided and shortly afterwards work was begun. By 1842 eight thousand acres had been reclaimed. 4. The method was developed by Peter Lancaster, of Great Britain. It was claimed by this method that one teacher could teach anywhere from fifty to one thqusand pupils. The me. thod was introduced at Fayetteville, December 14, 1814. In June of the next year Raleigh announced that a teacher had been sent to Georgetown to learn the method. New Bern adopt ed the plan in 1823. In 1822 Peter Ulrick. who had learned the method in Philadelphia, was conducting a training school for teachers at Sprat tsville, six miles from Charlotte. 5. The signers and their families were proscribed as traitors by the British government and rewards of 500 pounds were offered for their ap prehension. 6. Fayette county was formed by the legislature that convened at Hills boro, April 19, 1784. The act divided Cumberland into two Counties. and Fayette. The neftt legislature, which convened at New Bern in Oc tober, discontinued the name of Fay ette and readopted the name of Cum berland. During the few months Fay ette was a county, members were sent to one general assembly, John Arm. strong to the senate and William Rand and Alexander McAllister were elected to the house. McAllister died, however, before taking his seat. AMELIA ASKS UNREGULATED FLYING bm#£^!s9HhhHb!
