Fiaaio Recital by Pupils Of Miss Irene Weaver On Thursday evening, at the High School auditorium, in spite of un favorable weather conditions, a large crowd testified their interest in good nmsic and in the young performers. and especially in the success of Miss Weaver's class. They were fully re paid by an interesting program and a creditable performance by Miss Weaver's intermediate and advanced pupils. The program was well chosen from classic composers. Some of the pupils showed artistic ability ot a high' order, and all showed great ad vance in technical training and a high evel of musical appreciation, the concert deserves high praise as an exhibit of 'faithful work and sound artistry and and acceptable contribu tion to the culture of the community. Miss Weaver's purJils were ably as sisted by Mrs. A. J. Smith, whose numorous- readings were much ap preciated, and by Miss Margaret Rogers in two delightful vocal num bers.

Developing a Southern Rival for the Potato Because most of the potatoes used in the South are necessarily shipped in from the North, the United States Department of Agriculture' some years ago undertook to find a substi tute tor this vegetable that could be grown in the Southern States and supply this need to a certain extent. The dasheen (a variety of the Poly nesian taro), a fall root crop known for centuries in the Orient and for two or -three hundred years in the Western Hemisphere, where it had been brought from China, was im ported from Porto Rico in 1905 and tested for culture iiv this country Dasheens are very similar in many respects to potatoes and used in th same way and through experimental work they have-been adapted for cul hire on comparatively low lands on the Coastal' Plain from South Caro lina to eastern Texas. Dasheens are now grown in many small gardens m the South for local consumption and also to supply a small but growing market in some of the larger iities of the North, where there are many foreign people v.lio have always known th-; food value of the dasheen. Continr.us '.effort 'by growers and others in the South to make the excellence of this' vegetable known to winter tourists, and caTe in marketing only the best dasheens are calculated to bring a largely in creased demand. A regular market demand, already has beu built up to take care of about 10 carloads of this new vegetable yearly. X-Ray Sermons Don't Poison Your Neighbor. An old friend of mine used to com pare persons who "carelessly spread diseases to mad dogs which bite every person that comes within their reach. Perhaps few people have any inten tion of .i.rc i ding sickness, but per sons who are developing a contagious disease are likely to feel restless and may not be content to stay away from otherg until they are too sick to travel. Many a person has served a term in jail for causing someone's death by "criminal negligence." Does not the man-who carelessly spreads disease germs deserve some such treatment ? 1 It is no longer doubted that germs develop poisons in our systems and so cause many of the ailments , from which we suffer; and it is a fact that most of these evil bacteria come to us directly from the bodies-of sick perso.ns.: The-,person who is suffer ing, from the" disease is responsible, more than anyone else, for the germs which he puts into other people's. systems, A man. who has flu. T. B., or even a" cold ought to know better than to talk loudly or laugh in any one's face. And a man who would sneeze a million disease-makers into one's face must have something wrong witlv his conscience as well as with his bodv If you feed a neighbor strychnine or arsenic no one will.be hurt but the one who cats it; but if you 'give him a start of disease germs he. and perliap ;, many of his. friends will suf fer. Several years ago. a man went to the city of Chicago and. started an epidemic of smallpox which .caused three thousand.' deaths. If this man cnew what he was (loins, his heart was blacker than that of an anarch , ist. We need - to apply the Spirit of Christ to our present day problems. in connection with this question of keeping your microbes from hurting others, think of-the text: "Love worketh no ill to his neighbor ; there fore love is the fulfilling of the law," X-RAY.

Homes are being rebuilt, crops replanted, and pictures of ruin and desolation transformed again in to scenes of normal life and prosperity. .To local relief efforts the Red Cross contributed funds and trained work ers, giving communities the benefit of its experience in over 400 other dis asters. , "All that relief can 'do is at most little" -said Joseph Logan, Southern Red Cross manager. "Following these disasters, the Red Cross tries to help these people to help themselves, and the courageous spirit in which they have turned to -the task of .rebuildinc j their ri'om'es and replanting their ruined crops is a credit to the South.
