Why are Building and Loan 'Associations being
organized and flourishing in ali towns, large and
small? Because men of good business judgment have
recognized the many merits of such organizations.
■
Why hsis the Brevard Building and Loan Associa
tion paid • to its stockholders $41,566.43 in czmcelled
mortgages, withdrawals and profits for the past two
years? Because this represents the Association’s de
gree of usefulness to its shareholders.
Why has the Association paid out in profits
$5,809.43 within the past two years? Because it is
in a healthy condition and managed on an economical,
business-like, profit-sharing basis with the assurance
of go6d dividends.
Why did each member of the Board of Directors
of the Association last week subscribe for five addi
tional shares of stock? Because they considered it a
good business investment.
Why has the present series been one of the best
in the history of the Association? Because more peo
ple are recognizing that Building and Loan is a good
investment, encourages siystematic savings and is one
of your best financial friends when you decide to build
a home.

The Day of Lilia
It is Decided That Full Names Must
Be Returned Cy the
College.
Raleigh.—"The last word” v/as spok
en by Governor Blckett, as to the much
and furiously discussed name abbre
viation for the North Carolina State
College of Agriculture and Engineer
ing. erstwhile known as “A. and M.*'
Officers of the State Fanners’ Union,
f^ditor Poe, of The Progressive Farm
er; President Riddick, of the College,
and members of ths Aluiusi Associa
tion, composed the conference with
the Governor,
The Governor’s statement declares
that “after a full conference it was
the ^nanimous sense of the meeting
that whenever the college Is referred
to in the literature sent out from the
college, or in the pcess of the state, it
should be called the State College of
Agriculture and Engineering or the
ivgricultural and Engineering College.
It was the further sense of the meet
ing that these full names should be
used and not the intials. It is to be
hoped that all good citizens and
friends of the college will take due
and timely notice of the agreement
above referred to and govern them
selves accordingly.”
The Governor and Council of State
purchased a lot on which to erect a
fireproof warehouse for state records
and property provided for by the re
cent legislature. The purchase was
at the auction sale of the Woodall
property on Morgan street, a half
square from the Capitol. A lot 116 by
105 was purchased for $14,500. The
entire property brought $29,000.

Trinity Students to Drill.
Durham.—Military training for Trir^
ity College is an assured fact. The
students in an enthusiastic mass meet
ing, following a stirring speech by
Dr. W,. T. LaPrade, of the department
of European history, have signed a
petition requesting that they be sup
plied with officers and equipment of
the Federal Army. All athletic con
tests for the raminder of the term will
probably be cancelled and the entire
attention of the student body devoted
to preparing itself for the National
emergency.
Plans Company of Home Guards.
Greensboro.—C. M. Vanstory, of this
city, has begun discussion of organ
izing a company of Home Guards, to
include men 45 years of age and older.
Several have offered to become mem-
berj;, including many Confederate vet
erans. The first man on Mr. Van
story’s list is J. H. Rankin, who is
said to be nearly 100 years old, and a
veteran of the Civil War. On account
of the act of Congress preventing the
organization of any armed group o^
men in time of peace except Govern
ment military forces, actual work on
the organization can not be done until
there is some declaration of war. As
soon as war is declared, the ban will
be lifted and Mr. V'anstory expects
then to enroll as many as 200 men.

ON FIRST EASTER DAY
Gas From Chestnut*
Morganton.—What may prpve, anti
in fact promises to prove, one of the
great discoveries, has recently been
found at the Burke Tannery here, in
which it has been proven conclusively
that the pulps from the chestnut wood
after the tannic acid has been extract
ed will produce gas in such quantities
that it is to be used commercially for
both power and lighting.
This pulp has been considered
worthless and it has been a problem
how to get rid of it. In the future,
however, it is likely to be converted
into gas.

Beautiful Scriptural Reading of the
Savior's Rise From the Tcmb and
Greeting to Mary
Magdalene.
John 20:1-16.
The first day of the cometh
Mary Magdalene early, when it
was yet dark, unto the sepul
cher, and seeth the stone taken away
i from the sepulcher.
Then she runneth, and cometh to Si
mon Peter and to the other disciple,
whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them.
They have taken away the Lord out of
the sepulcher, and we knov,- not where
they have laid him.
I'eter therefore went forth, and that
other disciple, and came unto the sep
ulcher.
So they ran both together: and the
other disciple did outrun Peter, and
came first to the sepulcher.
And he stooping down, and looking
in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet
went he not in.
Then cometh Simon Peter following
him, and went into the sepulcher, and
seeth the linen clothes lie.
And the napkin that was aDont ms
head, not lying with the linen clothes,
but wrapped in a place by itself.
Then came in that other disciple
which c;ame first to the sepulcher, and
he saw', and believed.
For as yet they knew not the Scrip
ture, that he must rise again from the
dead.
Then the tiisclples went away again
unto tlieir ow^ home.
But Mary stood wuthin at the sepul
cher weeping: and as she wept, she
stooped down aQd looked into the sep
ulcher.
And seeth two angels sitting, the one
at the head, the \ other at the feet,
%here the body of Jesus had lain.
And they say unt|) her. Woman, why
weepest thou? She s^ith unto them. Be
cause they have taken away my Lord,
and I know not where they have laid
him.
And when she had thus said, she
turned herself back,\ and saw Jesus
standing, and knew not that it was
Jesus. '
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why
weepest thou? whom \seekest thou?
She. supposing him to be the gardener,
saith unto him, Sir, if tliou have borne
him hence, t^ll me where^ thou hast laid
him. and I will take him ^w'ay.
Jesjus saith unto her, ^ Mary. She
turned herself, and sait^ unto him,
Kabboni, which is to say, I Master.
