Raltigh, Dec. 8. —Preparations are be ing made in the School of Agriculture at State College now for the practical short courses to be given during the month of Jesuitry. The courses wfll begin on Janunjy 12th and last through the I7th.!: Oi.t course wl.-eh, its is said, ins been unusually successful is planned for prae- : tieal. poultry die),. Cast year I here was ■ un increase of if*) per_cent. in attend- . utiec , for this course over the previous year, according to Dr. B. F. Kaupp, of the poultry department, and inquiries and letters indicate that, the number at tending will be doubled again this year. The poultry course will be featured by lectures and demonstrations beginning promptly at 11 o’clock on the morning of January 12th, under the plans already announced. The entire afternoon of the first day will be taken by a representa tive of the United States department of agriculture who will teach poultrymen how to recognize the various parts of the interior of an egg, to tell its qual ity, how to grade and handle eggs and how to handle them for maket. ! Another feature of the course will have to do with the selection of good pro ducing hens and the value of trapnests. Dr. Kaupp states that members of his department will give instructions in cap onizing birds, how to stick and bleed, how to recognize and treat diseases and how to build suitable farm poultry houses. . One of tbt important features of the whole course, it is said, will be the lec tures on standardizing the flocks" and marketing cf eggs and poultry products by community effort. Dr. Kaupp as serts that this is onp flf the biggest questions now before the poultry of the state and the solving of this question will prove hew far North Carolina is to j advance as a successful poultry farming section. Dr. Kaupp urges all those who intend to take tht course to register with him at once in order that Reservations may be made for all desiring to attend. Ltagu ’s Session on Armaments. Rome. Dec. K—At the thirty-second session of the Council of the League of Nations, which opened in Rofne today with n distinguished attendance of statenien. secretaries and other official representatives of the nations making up the League, the chief matters scheduled to receive attention are: 1. A general plan for a reduction of armaments in eohformity with Article 8. This will cover a consideration of the “principles and methods” of reduction, based on an inquiry into such prob'ems ao peace effectives, naval and aerial forces, populations, delimitation of frontiers, and so forth. 2. The special situation in certain states with regard to a red nelson of armaments. Under this head will be examined problems dealing with a tem porary reservation in favor of these countries exposed to particular dangers, rtlso a recommendation for regional agreements on reduction or limitation of armaments. 3. A recommendation for the institu tion of demilitarized zones. • 4. Control of and inquiry into arma ment conditions ’in the contracting states. To Show Invention Models.

LAY LEADERSHIP WIDENSIRVICE | Plans Ase Taking Farm for Ex- ' pansion of Program for Young ) Men and Youth. Organisation of tlia sew National 1 Connell of the Young Men’s Christian ( Associations of the United States, to !, take place at Buffalo, N. Y, Decern- ;] her 8-6, will close the half-century * service of the International Commit- !< tee as the national agency of the Asso- 1 elation movement in North America. ! As many of the nearly 200 business • and professional men composing this internationally known group will con- , tinne as lay officers either on the new Council or on state, local or < other committees, their experience 1 and energies will etll| he powerfully felt in the service of this largest of ] the yrorld’s lay movements. Indeed,- ! one of the expected results of the Y M C A’s new plan is increased re- i sponsibllity of laymen. This is the , more welcomed because the Interna tional Committee has presented a ;■ most impressive example ot Christian 1 lay leadership; ' ' Its members have been representative geographically and .denominationally and have come fron\ ' many lines of activity. ’ . ’ The lists of International Commit- ' tee membership bear the names of | governors, captains of industry, labor . leaders, clergymen, educators, repre- , sentatives of the colored race, law- , yers, financiers, physicians, econo- i mists, publicists. Under the form of i organization of the Y M C A’s of 1 North America, the Orinmittee has 1 i i jljsL K; JAMES M. SPEERS a been the servant of the whole. Its task has been not merely to help lead but to carry forward various'techni cal, pioneering, and missionary serv ices. The Committee Is pointed to, there fore, as exemplifying Christian unity as well as action. It typifies the lay leadership of every phase of the Asso ciation movement The identity of this leadership with other active Christian lay forces reveals the rela tionship es the movement to the Church ia personnel and in purpose. Bor such reasons the passing of the International Committee as a stand ing bedy is being widely noted. Its service is spoken es as a permanent legacy. The International Committee came into existence as the natural resalt of the rapid growth ot the ,Y M C A movement in America. Its continued growth, especially daring and since the World War, Is one of the reason* why the Committee wfll be Succeeded by a National Council with an ad in terim body, known as the General Board, acting for the Associations of the United States, Just ns the Cana dian Council is a national body. The Committee’s chairmen have been Cephas Bratnerd, Elbert M. Monroe, Laden C. Warner, Alfred BS. Marling and James M. Speers, the latter be ing the present incumbent. The gen eral secretaries have been Dr, John R. Mott and Dr. Richard a Morse. Howard B. Grass, D. Q., widely known editor, Bays of the Committee: “Much es its work kas been incon spicuous but none the less Influential. It has, for example, been a generating ground for other movements —the Y W C A; the Student Volunteer Move ment which hoe provided more than 11,000 Christian missionaries; the In terracial Cemmtadoa; the World Stu dent Christian Federation. ;“Through thin Committee America became the chief source for the ex tension of the Y M C A movement to other lands. Thirty countries have experienced this American leadership for the development es Christian man. hood. America's service in the war was the Inspiration ter much of the remarkable Y M C A growth in Eu rope and the Near East “An adequate revjpw of the Inter national Committee would lead Into a description ot Y M C A service for colored men sad hoys, students, men of the Army and Navy, men ot the merchant marine, men and boys 0 f the railroads mid In industry; it would call tor a ieoerlption ot the methods whereby its work with boys has been expanded; It would deal with religious work, educational fa cilities and physical education, “Through the organization of the new National Connell the movement In America is girding Itself for even larger responsibilities. It intends to Increase tbe quality and quantity of Christian service to men and beys ot America and the world.’* THE LAKES-TO FLORIDA ROI TE j Is Routed Through Virginia and Mt.' Airy—Concord’s Chances Enhanced. I Salisbury Post. Jit. Airy is to be. on the line of the Lakes-to-Florida highway* according to a telegram received by Secretary I a S. Moody, of the Salisbury Chamber of Com merce from Mr. J. M. Sparger, of Mt. Airy, a member of the board of directors !of the Lnkes-to-Florida highway associa tion. This will be good news to those who have been engaged in the campaign to pull this highway through Salisbury, because it is another step toward bring ing it this way. The message from Ma. Sparger states ithat at a meeting of the four members ■of the highway directorate for Virginia, iheld at Wytheville, the route chosen -through that state is out of Bluefield over Walker Mountain in Bland county, thence down through Wytheville and on to Hillsville and then to the Virginia*. North Carolina line only a few miles] from Mt. Airy, thus insuring it being, brought on into the latter place. This eliminates, so far as the Virginia direc-l ! tors are concerned, Independence and Galax in that state, and the proposed Sparta route in North Carolina. It will be recalled that at the first, meeting in' Bluefield the Saliobury-Lex-j lington-Concord delegation secured a hear-! Ing before the directors on a resolution' suggested by Mr. P. A. Wallenborn, of this city, to the effect that the directors' of each state be left to designate the route through their respective states —West Virginia and North Carolina. This was adopted and was a victory for •those favoring the route down through Mt. Airy, Winston-Salem, Lexington, Salisbury and Concord on to Charlotte. | QBie Independence-Sparta route having | been eliminated by the motion of the] Virginia directors, there is yet a fight to | be won. The people of Elkin and States- 1 ville will endeavor to have the highway routed from Mt. Airy to Elkin and then' •down through Statesville and Mooresville] to Charlotte. There is only a difference! of about ten miles in that route and the j one down through Salisbury and with the road coming this way it would touch considerably more populated territory and much larger towns and cities, and more of them, as only Elgin, Statesville and ■ Mooresville would be on the western route, whereas on the eastern route there would be Winston-Salem, Lexing ton, Spencer, Ealisbury, Kannapolis and Concord. At a meeting held some days ago at ■Wytheville, Va., three new directors from i each state were chosen and a charter which had been granted by the secre tary of state of North Carolina was adopted. It was contended by some at that meeting, among these being Walter i Murphy, of Salisbury, and Borter Graves, 1 of Mt. Airy, that that meeting was not ; legal as it was being held in another < state other than that in which the char- i ter was granted and also in another city ( than the one designated as the home of fice of the association. Now it develops, i it has just been learned here, that act- • ing on the opinion of several big cor- ; poration attorneys. President Johnson, of i the association, whose home is at Wythe ville, has declared everything done at ,j the recent meeting at that place huH and , void ..and illegal and this leaves the as- 1 sociation just where it Was at first, and ■ with this done and the action; of the Virginia directors in designating the j route through that state down, through , Hillsville and Carroll county to the North , Carolina line the chances of Salisbury , and the other points on the proposed ( eastern route are very much enhanced and those who have been working to ■ that end feel much encouraged. Other developments are expected with- j in the next week or two that will have an important bearing on the matter. ' In the meantime Mt. Aitw is sticking right to Salisbury and the other points | pulling together for the eastern, route of j J the Lakes-to-Florida highway 'through j this state. Red Magic.
