SOCIETY APPROVES THE WORK AND THE EXPENDITURES On motion of Dr. Whitaker, of Enfield, seconded by Dr. Smith, of Scotland Neck, the society unanimously passed the following resolution. Be it resolved that the County Medical Society en dorses the work of the County Health Department for 1920, and recommends that the work b continued indefinitely as per the budget of 1921. Resolve further that in view of the misunder standing that has arisen we here by state that the salary of the public health officer for 1920 from all sources was $2,650 and will be $3,000 for 1921. In view of the fact that the cost of public health work in the county is ap proximately 10c per head it is O not considered too much. H. B. Furgerson, President.

Raleigh. -Delegates to the Second annual Convention of the American Cottoo Association held In Raleigh January 13th went on record as unan imously supporting a co-operative marketing association and the newly organised Cotton hxport Company. L. S. Tomllnson, who has been at the head of the State Association during the past year, tu re-elected Presl dent j Over a thousaad delegates were in , attendance at the meeting which was addressed by Richard 1. Manning, former Governor of South Carolina, Aaron Saplro, Attorney for the Cali fornia Fruit Exchange, and Hollina Randolph, Attorney for the Federal Reserve Board, sixth district. Governor Manning dwelt at lengtfc on the advantages that the Export Corporation wou'd offer Southern tarmers anu souinern people gen- Export and Import Corporation was organized about two months ago, Gov. ernor Manning wrs chosen Its Pre Ident. Joseph Walker of Columbia, S. C, formerly of the cotton firm of Hollowell & Walker, Is General Man ager for the corporation. The Corporation plans to stabilize the do mestic cotton marl-et by shipping the South's surplus sta.Me to Europe. One shipment has already been made and others will follow very shortly. Of considerable interest to the con vention was an address by Mr. Sapiro, who has had extensive experience In marketing problems. He sketched the work accomplished In California and urged the Stte of Vorth Cnnlia to be one of tha leaders In the co-operative movement. Mr. HolUns Ran dolph explained the difference between the American Products Export and Import Corporation and the baikers export corporation, formed under the Edfre Act. The Ed Re Corporation Is limited primarily to discounting and cannot deal In commodities, whereas the organization headed by Governor Manning Is actually buying and selling eot'on and the other chief products of the South. A State-wide campaign In the lBt est of the Export Corporation has been launched, and meetings will be held In practically every cotton growing county In North Carolina. Mr. L. 8. Tomlinson, President of the State As sociation, has already arranged a num ber of meetings which he will address. Wednesday, he will speak In ATb marle; Thursday, January 20th. in Troy; Friday, January 21st, In Shelby; and Saturday, January 22nd, In Ruth erf ordton. Mr. O. C. Maner of the Export Corporation will also speak at the Shelby and Ruthertordton meet ings and Mr. H. L C. Stevens, also a representative of tho Export Com pany, wUl address the Albemarle and Troy gatherings. Realizing that the European coun tries are not absorbing anywhere near the amount of cofin they used to In pre-war days, cottcn men of the South have for months past been looking around for a way to remedy conditions. Indications are that the American Products Export A Import Corporation will solve the Question. To enable Europe to secure the cot ton It needs, proper credit facilities must be afforded and the Exnort com pany with Us $i......uu0 capitalization will be able to extend" such credits. Stock of the American Products Ex port ft Import Corporation Is being offered at $10 per share and subscrip tions are being received In cash or In eotton or Liberty Bonds at the market price. The company's North Carolina office Is located In the State Agricul tural Building at Raleigh. Endorsements of the Cotton Export Corporation have been received from many sources. Governor W. P. G. Harding of tho federal Reserve Board and Governor M B. Wellborn of the Federal Re-serve Bank of At lanta have come out In support of the program. Former Secretary of the Treasury, W. O. McAdoo, has en dorsed the movement 6!itliU3ls.3t!ca!!y. Among the North Carolina organiza tions that are actively supporting the campaign are: American Cotton As sociation, Ralelph Clearing Hotse, North Carolina A. A E. College, El tension Department; North Carolina Assoclstlon of Life Underwriters; North Carolina Press Association; Interstite Tobacco Growers' Associa tion; North Carolina Association of Hosiery Manufacturers; Charlotte Chamber of Commerce; Rocky Mount Chamber of Commerce, and many banks and prominent Individuals. The American Co.ton Association at Its meeting In Raleltrh faced squarely the fact that the total cotton exports of the South had fallen off 73 since the pre-war period. In the past the Southern States have looked to for eign capital to finance their exports Appreciating that thi. is no longer poMlble. the cotton men of this State and of tha South generally are banding togetr.i to assure the Joht aucceaa of the CJc-onerative 'Maetlng Idea uU the Cotton Export Corporation XPORT W ILL YOU HELP j No organization in this corn imunity deserves the co-operation and support of the people more than the work of improving the I conditions of our Cemetery.

FRECKLES i One of the most important ! offerings of the current season Rapids, is the first presentation here of Neil Twoney's delightful dramatization of Gene Stratton Porter's charming story "Freck les," which is announced for Tuesday night, January 25. 1 The fact that there have ben inore readers of this story than any other book published in a' dtcade a fair estimate is in the millions - makes the dramatiza tion of the utmost importance to the dramatic world. "Freckles" as a song play is stronger than "Freckles" as a story. The characters live, love and have adventure, - one can see and hear, there is nothing left to the imagination. The Broadway Amusement Co., un- ' der whose management the pre sent tour is conducted, has made the production of "Freckles" ex- ' ceedingly elaborate, and has as sembled a company of unusual excellence for the presentation of this charming song play. The music for the play and the songs rendered by Freckles and other charact rs are by the Vien nese Composer, Anatol Friedland, . and are a novelty from a musical point of view. The Woodland Fantasy played during the play is a masterpiece. This is not a moving picture. Parent-Teachers Meeting Jan. 27th Dr. E. C.
