MAJOR PRATT Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt of Chapel Hill, state geologist, will be major in command of the North Carolina engineers who go with the first ex pedition to France. Dr. Pratt is known all over the state as a good roads advocate and his work for highways will always be his chief crown. Judge Francis T. Winston, discussing Dr. Pratt one day with the Record man, said he would be glad to pay him as much as the state pays him. The judge would put the en gineer and geologist in charge of his Bertie county plantation and was confident of getting results. The en gineers who will follow .Major Pratt will like him.

FRIDAY AUG. 17, 1917 VARDAMAN IS WORSE When such men as Vardaman are permitted to exercise themselves in the senate without restraint, uttei ing words that would make trouble for persons in the ordinary walks of life, one does not feel' like criticis ing them for their foolish words and activities. The senate should take nc tion. It should' not permit Varda man and fellows of his kidney to vent their spleen at a time when tht nation should be united in carrying out the will of the majority of the American people. The difference between Vardaman and his imitators is that he is sup posed to know better; the others arc- mislead by such as he. His offense Iherefore is all the greater. Free from prosecution himself, knowing how far he can go, he sets an example that may lead many a poor devil into diffi culties. HANDLE THE SPEEDERS Persons who live on sandclay roads whether in Hickory or in the coun try, have no patience whatever with automobilists who dust through the, community at a lively rate of speed, with cut outs thrown wide open, and every device attuned for causing dis comfort. Tho reckless driver is not only a menace to himself, but is a positive nuisance and danger to persons living along highways. It is not comfor table for one's house to be filled with dust. Breathing it is bad and in jurious. Automobile owners should have a proper regard for the feelings and comforts of others. (If they haven't this regard, then the officers of the law should intervene and make them pay for their fun. The public is expecting Lens to fall at any time. Canadian troops have been fighting in the city anu the place h almost surrounded. Its capture would turn the Germans out of a section that has furnished them fuel to operate their trains and make their position all the more difficult to maintain on the rest of the line. The operations north of Lens are de signed to turn the flank of the Ger man army and any considerable suc cess for the allies would cause a retreat of a great part of the Ger man forces in this section, besides making useful the airplane and sub marine bases on the coast. We have always felt that the Ca tawba County News was a sort of hyena, but the News corrects us. It dees us good to hear the News say u is all right, and we trust it is sincere. Farmers who held their wheat for $5 a bushel instead ol selling it for $2.75, may be forced to turn loose foi $2 which is a big price under nor mal conditions.

NOTICE OF SALE OF BONDS The Catawba Cooperative Cream cry, long since past the experimental atapre, enters its eighth year of use fulness -with prospects of expanding its already large trade in butter, eggs and other products. The stock holders have voted to increase the capital stock from $12,000 to $24, 000 and President Robinson and his associates will have more means with which to conduct the business. Since the present creamery was put into operation, the state has seen a numbeT of similar enterprises er ected and they are doing much foi their communities. North Carolina consumed from 3 000,000 to 5,000,000 bushels of wheat more than is produced and the major, ity, including many farmers in th east and south, will be benefited by lower prices. However, we had rather c tne grain continue around $2 be cause that would result in the more acres of it. t0?!!

My service in the optical line will equal the best and excel the rest. I also offer a free service to all who wear gfasses. They are welcome to come in my offict and have them cleaned and adjust ed gratis whether they boughe them from me or not. This free service has gained for me many new customers.
