Tract Lying and being in the county of Macon and State of North Carolina, being part of section No. 5 - and 10 in Dis't. No. 12, on. the east bank of Tennessee River: Beginning at a maple on the east bank of Tenn essee River, a corner 'of section No. 6, runs thence down the river with its meanders 74 poles to water oak thence east 50 poles to pine; thence north 59 1-2 east 20 poles to a Spanish oak ; thence south 76 east 54 ' poles to a white Sak; thence north 30 1-2 east 68 poles to a white oak; -thence south 85 east 62 poles to a little ; hickory ; thence-north 67 east 49 poles to a post oak at an Indian Grave; thence south 18 1-3 poles to white oak on the north side of a branch; thence down , the branch with its meandors to a stake in the east line f Section No. 5, thence south with 'with. said line 30jolest6 a black North Carolina Shows Big Gaja in Industries Hardly less remarkable than her fight ajja.iist uKeracy has been ;)unh Carolina's Ietlopment industrially From a standing start of about thir tieth in the Union, she has jumped in twenty years most of it in the last ten from a strictly agricultural Stae to among the first eight in industrial wealth; to second in the production of tobacco and first: in its manufact ure; to- second in the production and first in the manufacture of cotton goods, and to the leadership in a num ber of ; the less important branches of manufactures. Her 6,300 mills manufacture prod ucts in quantities of $1,000,000 and smaller value. Steady wages in the 'cities have brought her isolated and benighted mountaineers down from their hill retreats, and three of her' cities as the results of industrial de velopment have tripled their popula tion; another had quadrupled it, and the North Carolina port, Wilmington, has increased its business in ten years from $13,000,000 to $27,000,000. It is of course,' foolhardly to at tribute the developments of North Carolina or any other State to one man, but an eminent North Carolinian who has watched the State grow for thirty years, told the ' writer that James B. Duke had contributed per haps more to the State's industrial growth than any ether one person. What Duke Accomplished. Mr. Duke's effort took two direc tions: he gathered the threads of a disorganized tobacco business and Created the world's greatest streams within her borders, creating, the sec ond largest hydro-electric develop ment in the South, and made it pos sible for manufactures to have cheap power. , By doing one he showed fanurs th.y could make money out of, somen tiling besides cotton. As a result the State is highly diversified -and has come to apply a high order of inteli- tho eyes of. North Carolina End is now he r leading citizen. Leads in Debt Free Homes During the last twenty years North Carolina's -.property values have in creased eight times over; the "value of her manufactured products has in creased thirty-five times. She leads the Union, in the percentage of debt free homes, more than four-fifths of her citizens . who own homes have them without encumbrance. - Perhaps her growth has been more marked in the manufacture of cotton than in any other' phase. Twenty years ago she was among Southern Mates that shipped most of their fib er to Northern maunfacturing centers such as t all River, She paid tne, freight to Massachusetts the freight back the manufacturing cost and all the profits of those who handled it. Massachusetts said then that the cheap white help of the South could not manufacture cotton; that it could not leatn. North Carolina brought the white girl and the white boy and their parents down from the moun tains into the cities and put them in the mills. New England laborers were con tinually in trouble with the mill own ers. North Carolina laborers were lfiaking more mj:iey in a mon'h thur. they had seen in any previous year and vere content. Not only that, but they became highly skilled. North Carolina has 300 cotton mills, with slightly more than 6,000,000 spindles. Massachusetts has double that number of spindles, but 'in the last Several months of.1924 North Caro lina has produced more manufactured cotton gods than Massachusetts. The mills ot Massachusetts have been closed down from time to time ; Caro Una's have been running full tilt. North Carolina's furniture factor ies turn out $35,000,000 annually, as Sgainst . $1,500,000 worth : . fourteen years ago : ber cotton mills turn out $400,000,000 worth of products each year; the' State pays one-third of the tabocco tax of the United States and her factories consume one-third of the amount grown in America. The State's tank resources have in creased from $150,000,000 in 1914 to more than $500,000,000 in 1924, the precentage of train for the oeriod being twice the increase for the whole county as a whole. The per capita wealth of the State increased in the same period 10 per cent more than any, other state. A Parisian Headache Such headache as Paris had on the morning following Christmas eve was considered a phenomenon worthy of a cablegram to America. What a revelry to attend the birthday of the Prince of Peace. More than $1,000, 000 spent for champagne alone, every restaurant and carbaret jammed to the doors with table reservations re tailing for a .minimum of $50 per. It is told that unaccustomed tourists grasped at the spectacle of hatless millionaires m evening clothes rush ing from restaurant to cabaret and from cabaret to restaurant. Jewelers obligingly kept open until the wee small hours to enable the spenders to buy Christmas presents for pretty women the men with money had only just met. Now were these' rois terers and wastrels ours or th old world's? If the latter, there is no oc casion, for Frenchmen to make any more wry faces over American hints for payment of a long ovenluc war debt. . Who's forgetting Flanders, field now ?
