(Special to The Free Press.)
Chapel Hill, Feb. 10. The num
ber of miles of public roads in North
Carolina, the percentage of the total
mileage improved in each county, and
the number of counties having no im
proved highways these vital facts
are included in a tabulated form as
compiled by the North Carolina Club.
The statistics are assembled by W.
Hardesty- of the Carteret-Pamlico
County Club. The University News
Letter carries the analysis in com
plete form. The compilation covers
the iuiormation available upon the
sulject of roads to January 1, 1914.
The number of miles of public roads
in North Carolina total 48,991. Thir
teen per cent numbering 6,667 miles
are improved. There are 7,903 miles
of unimproved highways in tha State.
These counties fall under that classi
fication: Alexander, Ashe, Chatham,
Hay, Dare, Gates, Greene, Hertford,
Hyde, Jackson, Macon, Onslow, Pam
lico, Pasquotank, Pender, Tyrrell,
Warren, Watauga, Yadkin and Per
quimans. Some of these counties,
however, pulled up a notch by improv
ing their roads last year. The good
roads table, as tabulated by the Car
olina Club, makes the county the unit
and the counties in the lead are rank
ed on the basis of percentage of im
proved roads in relation to number of
miles of highway in the county. Scot
land county tops off the list with 266
miles improved 88 . per cent of its
mileage. Columbus county stands at
the bottom of the list of counties hav- j
ing any improved roads, with two
miles equal to two per cent Twenty
two counties joined the good roads
procession in 1913., The end of the
year saw only rive per cent of their
mileage bettered. Eighteen counties
had more than five and less than ten
per cent improved; seventeen coun
ties improved between ten and twen
ty per cent of its mileage. Seven
counties caught the good roads fever
with such intensity as to halve the
unimproved number of miles.
; "My gracious, dey sho' has been a
change and a upgo in these years in
the University," said "horny-handed
Henry," the colored bell-ringer of the
State University, as he looked out
over the campus and counted on his
fingers the number of buildings that
have been constructed Jn ten years.
Henry, old-time darky, has been as
sociated with the university as a jan
itor and bell-ringer for twenty years.
His favorite pastime is to keep hour
ly tab on his Ingersoll watch, which
he throw first in one pocket and then
in another. Ask him how much off
he ia." he invariably replies: "Well,
"bout a half second off.?

came to was Woodington No, 1. This
is a two-teacher school and is central
ly located in a good farming section.
There are three churches there. There
are more boys and girls of school age
in that district than in any section of
the county except Moss Hill. I met
...
there two committeemen and a num.
ber of the patrons. .1 was there by
invitation for an address on better
schools. Before I spoke the teach
era had a short program, consisting
of some songs by the school and two
papers by Master Roland Miller and
Miss Metis Stroud. The lad's was
in diary form, showing up the school
from opening to date. The pupils of
this school, enter heartily into any
work suggested by the teachers for
improving the school The improve-
which will go towards getting all the
things needed for making the school
up-to-date. Among the . improve
ments suggested were maps, globes,
a new uorary, aesKs ana a longer
term. In addition to these improve
ments, she said she wanted the house
improved,'' the grounds' fenced, laid
off in squares and flowers set ont She
suggested so many things that I took
her paper as my subject to talk upon.
I urged the patrons to vote a special
tax and just do what Miss Stroud
Suggested. When I presented the
matter all agreed, and I am to get
up a petition calling for an election.
And I expect the election to be order
ed next Monday. This community
has the boys and the girls, and a small
tax to be added to the sums given
by the county and State will enable
the patrons to have the best-equipped
school from Richlands to Kinston. "'

SIMPLE. BUT SURE
Hyomel the Great Catarrh Remedy
"Just Breath It" and Be Cured
Do not try to cure catarrh, head
colds, or nuraes by taking drugs.
These common but, dangerous la
ments that of terk cause the loss of
hearing cannot cured that way.
The commori-sens?t way r is to
breathe Hyomel, which gets the med
ication right where' it' is needed ' to
heal the raw andinflamed lining of
the air passages. . .'
Hyomei is a mixture of antiseptic
oils you breathe it no bother; no
disagreeable medicine; simply use
the inhaler a few times daily and this
healthgiving medication will quickly
soothe and heal the the irritated tis
sues, stop distressing choking and un
clean discharges-J-you breathe freely
dull headaches cease, and every ca
tarrhal symptom soon vanishes.
There is nothing more simple and
safe to use, or that gives such rapid
and lasting benefit, as Hyomei and
J. E. Hood & Co. sell it on the "No-cure-no-pay"
plan. ' '
Relief at last
for YOUR pain
: It doesn't matter whether you suf
fer from a bad cold, or cough, neu
ralgia or pneumonia, there is a way
of applying Nixon's' Menthol Balm
so that it gives, relief to your pain
AT ONCE.. Don't , confuse THIS
remedy with ordinary Menthol. For
Nixon's Menthol Balm is a physician's
prescription compounded of several
penetrative, antiseptic ' and healing
medicines it's not a 'patent medi
cine." You would ba surprised if we
published the name of the noted high
priced specialist whose prescription
this remedy is prepared after. The
Nixon Laboratory paid a high price
to get the right to sell it for bo lit
tle at 25 cents a bottle. .- It is splen
did also for Sore Throat, Headache,
Earache, Pleurisy, Bronchitis, Rheu
matism, - Swellings,. Stiffness, , and
Soreness. Used externally only
