Hudson, of Syra cuse, N. Y., the founder of the move ment, wired his acceptance to an invi tation to be present.

The list-takers did a great amount of work last week. Rev. Rush Padgett, pastor of the Highland and Brookford Baptist churches, left today for New Orleans to attend the Southern Baptist con vention. His churches made up a purse of $45 to pay his expenses to the convention. In spite of the unusual cold, there are some pretty gardens in Hickory. One of these is Mrs. Al ice Harbin's. (Saturday she un covered potatoes as large as one's thumb, and all of her vegetables, corn excepted, is going ahead. Mrs. Harbin has a novel way of fur nishing support to her pole beans, and this is by planting sunflowers allowing them to grow a few weks and then planting Vthe beans next to them and allowing them to run up the stalks of the sunuowers. NATURE'S CALL Talk about the call of the mountains, Or the call to the sea, A picnic out in the woods Is call enough for me. Just to leave old care at home, And be once again a child, To romp and play, and be happy and free . I tell you it is worth while. "We are all children of a larger growth." Yet in our blindness we cannot see The happiness in store Natur9 has for you and me.

Magill, who has been in Hickory for the past four years as storekeeper frithe Caroflinft and North-Western Railway, left today for Columbia, S. C, where he has a position with the Southern railway Mrs. Magill and Jlfttle daughter, Gwendolyn, will remain in Hickory for awhile. Mr. Magill has been with the C. and N.-W here for four years and he and Mrs. Magill have won many friends who regret to see them leave. motest points in the world. The number 1,000 is the goal which the various organizations of North Carolina are aiming at in delegates to be present at the convention in Ashe ville in May and it is thought that the presence of the founder of the or der will have great weight in deter mining this number. The local or ganizations are very active in plan ning for this occasion and yesterday several important corimittee meet ings were held with Mrs. N. Buckner, who is chairman of the convention committee and also occupies the office j oi chairman or tne state executive committee of the Philatheas and is district secretary. The first commit tee, which met with Mrs. Buckner at her home in Astor. place, was addressed by Colonel H. Cohen, who stated that he would personally con duct the tour up Mount Mitchell which is planned for the last day of the convention meeting and is one of the greatest featfcires of entertainment of the occasion. Colonel Cohen stat ed that tha train carrying the dele gates up the mountain wo.ild be dec orated in the class co.ors of navy blue, light blue and white, with patriotic - emblems and United States flags. He said that the event would be known as "Baraca-Philathea Day on Mount Mitchell" and suggested several features of entertainment which he had planned for the enter tainment of the delegates. Colonel Cohen said that he was actively en gaged in sending out Asheville liter ature to all points in the state from where delegates may be ex pected and it is thought that this will be a material aid in increasing the attendance. At the second commit tee meeting held with Mrs. Buckner Mrs. F. S. Seely, chairman of the entertainment committee, outlined the program for the reception to be held at the Battery Park Hotel, Thursday evening, May 17. It was decided that the reception which is open to the general public, would be featured with speeches of wel come and response, special music, greetings from the state officers and other similar numbers on the pro gram. The palm room of the ho tel will be decorated m the cl3ss colors and refreshments will be serv ed by ladies of the organization dressed in the various costumes of the countries in which the Baraca Philathea union has branches, these countries including Van Dieman's Land, Japan, China.

C. i FRANCIS DOWN IN CUMBERLAND University News Letter. The papers report that the farmers of Cumberland have increased their cotton acreage 25 per cent and their fertilizer bills 50 per cent. (WThich is all right, provided they have also planned to produce treble the amount of food and feed supplies the county produced in 1910. At that time, the county needed to import nearly two and a third mil lion dollars worth of staple food stuffs. If Cumberland is not more nearly self-feeding this year than it was when the last census was taken, the county faces bankruptcy no matter what the price of cotton may be. Twenty cent cotton buys mighty lit tle salt pork at 25 cents a pound, or corn at 1.75 a bushel or flour at $16 a barrel. At the present price of food stuffs, Cumberland needs to raise 5 million dollars worth of bread and meat more than she produced in 1910. The bankers in Fayetteville need to apply the screws to the farm situa tion in Cumberland, as the State Bankers Association has been doing in Texas the last three years, or may be so. This year Cumberland is likeh to establish beyond debate the folly of buying farm supplies with coiiuon money, or the wisdom ot producing cotton on a home-raised bread-and- meat basis. "Wte are watching Cumberland this year with peculiar interest. SEPARATE PEACE WOULD BE ETERNAL StHAME Petrogrady via Londkm, May 13. Addressing a congress of dele gates of the field army, Minshiviki Tseretelli, member of the council of workmen's and JstoldiersA idjelegates, declared that the German and Aus trian proletariat had not yet emerg ed from the state of chauvinistic in toxication into which they had been plunged by Dr. von Bethmann- Hollweg, the imperial German chan cellor and the imperialist bour geoisie. ""As long as the German proletar iat marches with Emperor William," said the spbaker, "our position ia clear. Should we now stretch a fra ternal hand toward the people of central Europe to conclude a separate peace, it would be an eternal sham which would lead inevitably to the downfall and annihilation of Rus sia. "We will not seek to break our engagement with our allies. On the contrary, we will do our utmost that the allegiance arranged by the bour geoisie shall be more solidly- cement ed by the fraternal union of the al- ied democracies." i V Ill 111: -SB mm the world: It is probable that there is no Kinfrlo instrument or device that has offered more delightful amuse ment and instruction to the gen eral public than the phonograph.

Strong, in ignorance to her visit, succeeds in reviving the ad- venturess. She asks him to tele phone to her physician. Zulph ans wers the call. Then he appeara at the studio carrying a small satchel and wearing a disguise. Telling Strong he is the womn's family physician, he asks him to re tire from the room with Wee See, and, j 11 alone with Sara Eoring, a search for 13 the treasure is begun. Zulph finds the securities, puts them in his saLchel, summons Strong to the room, tells him the patient is able to leave and then he departs. The arch conspira tor has told Sara Loring to meet him in a downtown tearoom. After she has left the studio Strong dis covers that the securities are gone. Meantime Rodman Sears has escap ed from the headquarters of The Se cret Seven by drugging Hadji Mahal, the East Indian Servant. Strong gets Sears on the wire and tells him of the theft. 'Sears obtains infor mation that Zulph is wearing a dis guise, and, with Detective Cochran, trails him to the tearoom. Stars, too, is wearing a disguise, and Zul ph, who has not heard of his escape, does not suspect him. Strong, after reporting the theft, receives a letter containing four $1,- 000 bills and a note, reading "From one who knows and hopes the enclos ed may be a little help." He is mys tified and goes to visit Beverly. He hows her the money and asks her if she is the generous and mysterious friend who sent him the cash. ,She ; n once shows jealousy and pride, ca Middy Twill 15e Middy Twill, extra heavy 20c Pa jama Checks 12 l-2c Extra Quality Nansook 36 in.
