Thwiiu... boro committee, having been cut off me outsme world for so long and not having been in position to get their organization in working or- uc, uoi m position at that time to Give Immediate aid to their coun tymen. Then It . was that th Win.. ton-Sttlem committee sent it nm.l mlttee back Into the coves with ra-j tlona and clothes, to render first aid ! to those in need. There was no red. tape connected with this distribution some may have received it .,k were not in actual need, but th members of the committee did thair best , and felt taht theyi were doing Just what the hundreds of donors -to the fund wished namely, feeding the nuuBry na ciommg the naked. This expedition was merely an ef fort to relieve the distressed people temporarily. The Wilkes committee. In the meantime, had become thor. oughly organiied, had received pro visions and money, and was in posi tion to look after their needy in far better manner, no doubt, than any outsiders. Committees represent ing every township in the county are now at work rendering assistance. A car load of clothing was sent from Greensboro, and the good women of the county, with Mrs. W. F. Troe- don in charge, are looking after this distribution. Mrs. Trogdon has on erously turned the basement of her beautiful home Into a clothing depot. She Is thoroughly awake to the big task before her, but she is sure to perform this task to the veryi best advantage, because she Is thor oughly interested in relieving the unfortunate people. . The Wilkes committee, having its forces thoroughly organized, has taken over the task ot administering to her citizens, the Winston-Salem committee having turned over to them all the supplies it had at North Wil kesboro, those supplies consisting of flour, meat, coffee and blankets. During the past few days the com mittee in charge has been thoroughly and 'conscientiously considering the means of relief for the stricken peo ple further down the river. All the cases reported demanding Immediate aid have been relieved by a cash donation, ranging In amount accord ing to the condition and size of the families. But the work of the committee is not at an end yet. There are still big problems to be passed upon look ing to the best means of helping those who must have. belp tor months to come. These problems are to be worked out Just as soon as the com mttte Is able to reach them. The flood-swept valley of the Yad kin today looks more inviting than it did for the first few days after the waters subsided. Then all vegeta tion was gone or covered with mud and sand. The recent rains have washed off some of this mud and sand, and vegetation has come out, presenting a much more inviting ap pearance. But the crops are gone for this' year. Some feed stuff may be nrndiired here and there, but the millions of bushels of corn that were to be are goneiL never to return. Great sand banlft cover over once rich bottom lands. Not a bridge is left standing between North Wilkes boro and tne raaKin-rorsyio onugo. One little ferry plies to and forth between Jonesville and Elkln. while here and there along the river a lit tle row boat attached to a cable arrina nagseneers from the Surry to Yadkin side. All the roads that were in reach of the waters are gone in manv places there is absolutely no sign left of them.- Lumber and driftwood are piled In heaps at most every turn of the river, and here and there one sees a dm car uvoiium lying in the bed of the Yadkin. The country! has suffered and it will be years before the pretty little valley will look itseir again. hart in the days of the log school' house quite often the subject for debate on a Friday aueruwu would be "Resolved, That fire is more destructive than water." And, too, ...iin h affirmative won. But let anyone take a trip up the Yadkin valley today and iook ua ruins caused by the rush of the black and muddy waters on the nignt of July 15th and it will require a mighty strong argument to have him render a decision adverse to the de structive force ot water. MR. jOHTTHOMA3 McBRlOE DIES AFTER YEAR'S ILLNESS. Mr. John ThJmTT McBride died Thursday night at 7.50 o clock A bis home 29 A street, after an Illness of one year. Death resulted from a com plication of din-ases. He had been confined to his bed for three weeks Md bad been critically ill for the pas three dava. Death, therefore, was not unexpected. The deceased was M yCHeVsWsurvlved by his wife and six children, four daughter, art two : bous.

Va.. on Thursday. Dr. Pratt states that the meeting was most enthusiastic end It wai shown that the people of Carroll county are awake to the importance of re-organising their road system. Dr. Pratt was one ot the speakers and Wineton-Salem . representatives at tending the meeting state that it was a great effort and resulted in clinch ing the 8,000 or more people present for road Improvement. Dr. Pratt states that an election is to be called Immediately, and that there la no doubt that Carroll coun ty will carry a bond issue for $200, 000. The measure will provide that $100,000 of the issue will be used in the completion of a highway from north to south, across the county, connecting with the main highway on either aide, and 160,000 will be spent in each direction east and weet to the county line. Mr. Pratt was very much surprised to find that this Issue can be maintained without one cent increaee in the taxes paid by the people of the county. They are already paying a road tax ot 60 oents on the $100 valuation, and under the old system of road work this has been dumped into the mud holes on unimproved loads 'every year. The promoters of the bond issue have out lined a plan of reorganisation of the road department of the county, and thereby .. provides for - the setting aside annually an amount as a sink ing fund out of the present road in come sufficient to provide' the prin cipal and Interest on the bonds to maturity. Dr. Pratt will go to Washington on Monday to attend a conference ot highway engineers of the states af fected by the recent floods.' The conference is held to discuss the disbursement of the appropria tion made by congress through the war department for the flood dia tricts. The appropriation in to be used in the reconstruction of roads thruout the district, and persons ren dered destitute" by the flood are to be given preference In employment. Dr. Pratt has been Investigating conditions through western North Carolina and in the flood counties has already started a movement to restore highways to their former con dltlon. He states that the strongest efforts are now centered about Ashe vUle, and within a tew weeks the roads leading to AshevUIe will all be reopened and In good shape. He says several months will be re quired to establish rural road com munication In the counties of the mountains, but nearly all the coun ties are cooperating in every way possible. At the conference at Wash ington Monday tne terms ot partici pation in the national aid fund will be determined. The mountain coun ties are counting on receiving aub stantlal aid through that fund in re storing the highways to their former condition. SCOTT-VAUGHN MARRIAGE. At the home of Mr. N. M.

Al Fairbrother, -who conducts a woman s department . in every thing." recently gave her readers the following reminiscences: .C Reminiscent. The meeting of the North Carolina Press Association In : Durham re cently recalls a similar occasion at Hendersonville twenty-nine years ago. when the writer, having been elected poet laureate for that year, was on the program for an original poem to be read, at one of the public sessions. After much mental travail our Muse gave to a waiting world the follow ing lines: - THE OLD NORTH STATE. Fair State of my adoption, that dost deign' . . To smile upon my humble Muse, this feeble lyre, 1 Attun'd to gladness and ambitious ; strain, -:'-v t ' To sing thy matchless charms would fain aspire. Thrice favored land, of memories and of song, : To tyranny a stranger, and the op pressor's wrong, ; Well may thy children and thy pa triots hoar Turn, with Just pride, thy glowing pages o'er.; Formed in those troublous times when . Freedom's fires. Already kindled on -a foreign strand. Were lit on virgin bills by patriot aires And fed by martyred brave of every ' land. Thy valiant sons, like hero knights of old, .. Were trained in schools ot hardship and of strife; And from auch fathers sprang a race " as bold. . : 1 Who held their country's honor dearer than their life. Thy noble daughters, since those ear ly daya When savage red men roamed thy for ests wild, Have by their virtuous deeds won last ing praise ' And stirred a nation with their coun sels mild. .- ; . , s Oh!

To tempt ambitious youth thy path to " try - And fan with seal the wasting fires of ' age, Thy institutions and luxurious homes.

Thy vast resources and . thy scenes sublime Have claimed their place on Fame's Immortal scroll, For while the world withstands all- conquering Time, And Nature lives, thy charms can ne'er grow old. Thy healing waters and reviving air Plant roses in the sufferer's pallid cheek And thousands cumbered with disease i. and care ''.. Within thy border, health's pure foun tains seek, Thy genial climate and thy fer tile soil Earth's richest snd most, varied treas ures yield. And open to the potent hand to toil The door to wealth and wonders unre vealed. Those noble waters and ' majestic - streams That like a-network thread our East ern shore. Their hidden mines of gold he only dreams , Who gathers fortunes from their boundless store, . And that bold river from Its mountain : bed.

VThat was the first time we had ever stood before a large and critical au dience and attempted to read one of our own productions. Just how we got through it we never could tell. There were no women's clubs In those days and the schools did not pay the same attention to preparing girls for such emergencies as in this progres sive period of higher education and college training. If we never knew before we realized then what was meant by "stage fright'' and never cared to repeat the experience. How ever, as we read the verses after a long residence In Tarheella and a moro Intimate knowledge of our subject, we have no cause to blush for the senti ments therein expressed. While thor oughly alive to the fact that North Carolina Is a long way yet- from the ideal state which men and women with a vision see in the distant fu ture, as a prophecy we endorse what we wrote when, through the eyes of youth, the road seemed shorter and the thing to be desired less difficult of attainment. Women In Journalism, During those early days of amateur newspaper work we enjoyed the un ique distinction ot being the only wo man in North Carolina editing and publishing a secular paper; the only woman who was a member Of the North Carolina Press Association, al though many of the wives and sisters ot editors accompanied the quill dri vers on occasion of these annual con ventions. About this time Miss Ad dle Williams, ot Charlotte, now as Mrs. J. P. Caldwell a veteran news paper woman of marked ability hold ing the' responsible position of city editor of the Charlotte Evening News, entered the field as city editor of the Charlotte Observer. At long inter vals other women ventured to pene trate the mysteries of the "art pre servative", and today in North Caro lina, as elsewhere, a woman in the newspaper office, in any capacity, is taken as a matter of course and ex cites neither comment no, criticism. . And not only in the field of Jour nallsm, but in every other profession and Industry have women made tre mendous forward strides in the years since 1885. When we first came to this State a saleswoman In a store outside of the millinery department was a real curiosity; a young woman in a buslnees office was unthinkable, and activities of women outside the home were limited to the missionary societies of the churches to which they belonged. : ?

Hill, who retired from the presidency of the A. ft M, College to devote his time for the next several years to the preparation of a history of North Carolina's part in the Civil War. the work to be done under the auspices of the North Carolina Divis ion United Confederate Veterans and the North Carolina Historical Commis sion, has ust returned from a 1.176 mile automobile trip, during which he visited eleven Civil War battlefields for the special purpose of making per sonal investigation that will enable hlin to more clearly present the posi tions that the North Carolina troops occupied during the several battles and the parts they played in the fight ing. The battlefields visited Included Seven Pines, New Market, Straughs hurg, Winchester, South Mountain, Sharpsburg, Gettysburg, Cedar Creek, Kornstown and Boonsboro. Dr. Hill traveled with O. L. Clark, of Clarkton, and his son, 8. W. Hill, and reports most satisfactory results attained. He is now regularly at work on the history, having his ofllco in the Historical Commission section of the new state administration building.

MERCHANTS -NATnAL i-J.-i'L 'fl a? TV-: v WUsStOALEtlfit BROKERAGE FEES NOT CHARGED TO COMPANY "How Is the Jefferson getting along since your big agency meeting?' was asked Treasurer Charles W. Oold, of the Jefferson Standard Lite Insurance Company. - "Flue," he replied. "The agents are getting right down to work, and from the fine production of business, you could hardly toll that there had been a week of play. Collections are also good, and this necessitates our making mortgage loans right along, so as to lend the thousands ot dollars which our policy-holders are paying us." "Where do you lend most ot yout money?" Mr. Gold was asked. 'Why, wherever we do business, We operate in 11 states, and in each one of these states we follow the pol icy ot lending on real estate the mon ey which we collect from our policy holders In those states." Mr, Oold was then asked If there was any charge other than the legal rate ot interest "No, sir," he replied, "Every man to whom the Jefferson Standard lands money ia especially warned that he la not expected to pay any brokerage fees, or any other expenses except for abstracting the title and Inspecting the property. Just the other day we found that, in an adjoining state, an attor ney was about to charge a brokerage on a loan from us, which he had led tho prospective borrower to believe had been secured through his lnuu ence. Our regular procedure showed the prospective borrower that he were not cognizant of this brokerage ar rangement; and It is ngedless to state that the brokerage was not paid. We only want the legal rate of Interest. We make mortgage loans only to our policy-holders. They are not only en titled to b6rrow our money, but we feel that in getting it they should pay nothing but the cost ot service." Mr. Gold was very enthusiastic about the prospects for the remainder ot the year. There seems to be no question In his mind Tint that 1910 will be the biggest year from every stand- : point that the Jefferson has ever bad. ' The company has recently Increased i its annual dividend to policy holders by nearly 331-3 per cent.; thus the policy-bolde'r Is reaping a direct gain from the splendid prosperity which is now existing in the South Creensboro News.
