Saturday, Sept. 25;, Zodiac sign: Lib
ra. Saturr now is an evening star. It
is at opposition to the Sun (180 deg.)
and there! ore at its greatest brilliancy
—slightly more brilliant than a stand
ard first-magnitude star. It may be
identified by its color, which is a
murky red.
ONCE UPON SEPT. 25TH
It has been this column’s recurrent
theme that American school historians
have ignorantly paid too much atten
tion to politicians and generals, and
too much attention to politicians and
generals, and too little to the men
who have had the most effect upon
American life.
What school history, for instance,
mentions the name of William Lie-
Baron Jenney, who was born Sept.
25, 1832, at Fairhaven Mass.?
Jenney was the engineer who,
among other things, invented the sky
scraper. In 1883 he invented for the
Home Insurance office building in
Chicago steel skeleton construction,
providing for each story—walls, par
titions and floors, to be carried inde
pendently on the columns. This and
the elevator, took the limitations off
buildings heights, and gave America
its first distinctive architecture. It
brought about larger cities, apartment
life and a whole chain of social and
economic consequences.

ON OTHER SEPT. 26THS.
1777—The U. S. was without a cap
ital. Congress fled as the British en
ered Philadelphia. Next day, Lan
caster, Pa., became the capital for a
few hours, then the government was
moved to York, making it one of
nine capitals in U. S. history.
1789*—A clergyman,, Rev. Samuel
Osgood, 77, of Andover, Mass., became
the first postmaster-general of the
United States under the Constitution.

What Do You
Know About
North Carolina?
By FRED H. MAY - j
1. How many wives of Confederate
veterans are on North Carolina’s pen
sion rolls?
2. How many years did Virginia
prohibit North Carolina tobacco from
being shipped from her ports?
3. Why was strong fight made in
1835 on changing the legislature from
annual to biennial sessions?
4. How many places were courts
held in North Carolina in 1786?
5. What North Carolina preacher
became superintendent of public in
struction tor California?
6. Wha* governor reported a log
house wa< to tie built in which to con
fine him?
ANSWERS
1. The estimates of the State budget
commission for this fiscal year are 2,-
521. The total number for last year
was 2,628.
2. Fifty-two years, from 1670 to 1731.
North Carolina did not have any ports
that would accommodate ships en
gaged in foreign trade. Through an
embargo on North Carolina tobacco,
Virginia hoped to capture the business
that might come to North Carolina.
The embargo was removed by the
Crown in 1731.
3. One claim was advanced that the
annual sessions were needed to keep
the National government in check
and to protect State rights. Another
was that North Carolina had no pub
lic schools and for this reason the an
nual sessions were needed as a clear
ing house for public information.
4. Seven—Halifax, New Bern, Wil
mington, Edenton, Hillsboro, Salis
bury and Morganton.
5. Oscar Penn Fitzgerald, born in
1829 in North Carolina, became Su
perintendent of Public Instruction for
the State of California in 1837 ana
served four years. In 1890 he was se
lected Bishop of the Methodist Epis
copal church, South. Died 1911.
6. Thomas Miller, deputy governor
under Thomas Eastchurch, in an af
fidavit, January 31, 1679, sent to Lon
don authorities, declared that a “par
liament” had been held in the colony
at which it was “decreed to build a
Loghouse 10 to 11 feet square to in
close ye deponent and to keep him
from pen, ink and paper and all ac
cesses of friendes.”
