The luce IVc h t'i-atilied to announce today that it is authorized to state that the operation of the mill will In- resumed some time this week. Ofliciul word to this effect came from Noi folk late Monday night, fol lowing a conference of the respective oflicials. Whether the resumption i to he permanent or in only temporary it not stated, and inquiry at the local oflices of the two companies today threw no light on the mutter. Kin.-t.in is alert and anxious to encourage the com ing of many more new industries here, and the rumored withdrawal of any of its already established plants is occasion for ai tii n. The Chamber of Commerce com mittee might well look into the matter to make sure that the resu-ri'ption . to lie permanent, ami to lend its ef ! forts in iia.'iiee it so, if it has not already been so deter I mined by the authorities.

TAFTS FRIENDS I Hickory Record: 'President Wil ' son could appoint former President j Taft to the Supreme Court bench I without making a mistake. The Au j gusta Chronicle is outspoken in its ' endorsement of the ex-Prenident, and that paper ought to know him well, ! as Mr. Taft used to make Augusta 'hid winter headquarter s." MEDICAL INSPECTION OF SCHOOLS. Washington News: "Medical in spection of schools is a new project in North Carolina. It has been tak en up by a few of the counties as an experiment and has proven such a success that funds have been appro priated for the continuance of the work. Too much importance cannot be laid upon the benefits that thLs work can produce. It is a vital mat- j ter to every community to see that ) its sfhool children are in gd health. I Under the plan of work which Ala mance and Northampton counties have adopted, inspection of the Kchoobi is made at regular periods and advice given wherever needed. In this way each child u kept in good health and the danger from any epi demic of disease is practically eliminated. i munity. Different. and Better.

'I he circulation man reminds the editorial department that it would be good if some of the delinquent subscrib ers would remember that this is "Pay Up Week" in Kin ton, and come across with a dollar or two on thei- ar rears. The editor hastens to pass the word along. Please pay." The Washington News endorses the plan of the State Board of Health for medical inspection of the schools. In that it doe well. The News emphasizes the great Importance of safeguarding the health of the public and Cdppcially the children. A doctrine the public servants -officials -would do well to subscribe to. Ill L Necto-Cola Hits the Spot. Call For It. Right thinking; people of the country will be gratified to note that the Supreme Court of New York has de clined to allow the courts of that State to become vehi cles through which the reprobate sons of the rich may ensnare pretty chorus girls in the matrimonial game and lay them kside in the divorce courts when they have grown tired of Iheir associations. Reports from Gallipoli announce that the British have been driven from the Turkish territory, and that the rather remarkable retreat was accomplished without cas ualties. Evidently the rear-guard was keeping pace with the front ranks in the. run, and whether the "get away" should be recorded as a "masterful retreat" or not, is a question of eome uncertainty. "FAVORITE SONS" TOR SUPREME COURT. Judge Henry I). Clayton, former ret resentalive from Alabama, is prominently mentioned as one of thmo con sidered for the vacancy on the U. S. Supreme ltench . Judge Clayton was appointed by President Wilson to the federal bench in Alabama. When he retired front the House, he wan nt the head of the Judiciary Committee, and had served as chairman of the Democratic national conventions. Ho is popular with the legislators, and will no doubt be one of the more prominent "favorite sons." .Alabama has another judge on t'.ie federal bench, whose name has been mentioned. He is Judge William I. Gruhh, affectionately known to his former associates of the bar as "Billy." He was appointed by President Taft, and although his first judicial experience, has made a most enviable record, and is recognized as one of the ablest jurists in the country. The endorsement of Judge William R. Allen, North Carolina's choice for the place made vacant, by the death of Justice I-amnr, goes merrily on. It may be truly said of Judge Allen that, "he is jiot n prophet without honor in his own country." GENERAL SCOTT'S CONSCRIPTION PLAN. The advocacy of General Scott, ("thief of Staff of the United States Army, of conscripting boys of this country 'between the ages of 18 and 21 for military ser vice, is .such a departure from the traditions of this gov ernment as to warrant more than passing consideration. General Scott draws his conclusions from the trouble England has been having in securing enough fighting men for her armies. He compares the English situation with what he thinks this government would confront in time of war. The Free" Press believes that the men of this country might well be taught the rudiments of military service. Not only would nuch instruction be valuable to the coun- try in time of need, but it would be splendid discipline and training for the youth of the land. To make that i training compulsory, however, is not in keeping with the ! principles of democracy, and The Free Press does not be I lieve that the War Department officials will meet with ' much encouragement from the American people for any i conscription plans in time of peace. The Free Press does not believe that it would be necessary for the Uni- ed States to conscript its fighting forces in time of nee I, 1 the experience of England notwithstanding. There is a patriotism in America borno of that spirit of freedom end independence, which is thj very basic n'.one of the Nation's existence. When war is declared by America, it must be done by the people themselves that is, their designated representatives, and not by a "divine right" of heredity; and when the need come., there is little doubt that the men of thi'; roi.r.ir will respond vcltin- ;yrily and without invoking 'he principles of monar chies, which have been ivsp-.n iible t a largo ilegre f.ir mniigration to this country, whi'h now reaches in time of peace n million or more annually. The anti kissing crusade, first, perhaps, made famous when the Hero of the Merrim.iv and the so-called kiss ing bug were at large throughout the country some years ago, is about to take on new life. Several of our con temporaries are .sounding the warning "Don't kisM the babies," and one is even agitating a town ordinance to make it a misdemeanor. In fact, it ought to le a fel.my to kins a poor little helpless infant smack in the mouth! The mother should lie excepted, however, for she can be counted on to protect her offspring.
