Mr. Norman Angell, the distin
guished publicist and authority
on international ( problems, re
cently delivered a-powerful ad
dress before- lha University au
dienee on "American Policy at
the Settlement." He made clear
the necessity of the present war
.with - Germany, and what it
should accomplish.
"This war must be fought out
and Germany must be beaten,
but this "vilLnoc suffice,'" Mr.
Angsll said. If war js to -re.
avoided in the future, he declar
ed, we must begin now to pre
pare for peace. This does, rot
mean that an early peace is de
sirable, but there must be a
' different kind of peace from
those made in the past,
-v. Mr. Angell recommended a
parliament of the, nations to
arrange the final peace terras,
the nature of which should be
determined. He suggested a
peace parliament of two .'houses
one to consist of the diplomats
of: the-nations. awl the ether to
be made -up of- the representa
tives cf all the factions -of e;teh,
country, as shown in their in
dividual parliaments. In this
. congress . nations' ' delegations
..would .cease fo ..le as a unit,
but. skrdbr.grcvp?? from enh of
the nations would w.ovk together
and thereby , effect more endur
ing peace. . : :
-Mr. Angell also .iKsvpted that
many of our old political d
trinev such as. the independent j
sovereignty of the individual
state, must be much modified,
and the problem of permanent
rtpaoo rrm.'st ha Jirmvnuplioil i. a
new- way; War has become in
ternationalized, said the speak
er, and no longer can nation's
wage war individually. There
must be something more than
mere police-power. 'There must
be. a law back- of this power to
be enforced. . States in .a so
ciety of - nation? cannot be inde
dependent of one another. Mr.
Angell stated-that Germany
should pay the damage done to
Belgium, more for its moral ef
fect than for the material side.
The ChapelHill community
will join with the people of the
country side in celebrating Rai'y
ay here on November o in
'he past twr yew exhiMs of
farm" and hous i imJmois
will be displayed in Memorial
Hall and a""full program of re
creation, instruction and enter
tainment will be provided for the
day., Prof. AI. 0. S. Noble nas
general direction of the exervis-
a :i J .. :n u
served on the University campns
for all who come..
Many prizes have been offered
Sot attractive exhibits of farm
products, garden , and orchard
products, flowers, needlework,
canned goods, cooking, antiques
and school work. . Moving pic
tures, athletic events, etc., will
help to fill a busy day. The
whole list of exhibits will afford
a chance to determine what the
community is doing in many
fields of auxiliary war service.
According to present plans,
the University, of North Caro
lina is to engage in farming on
. a large scale next year. The
Mason farm, the property of the
t University, of 750 acres, and

Not all who ought, or could, have bought;
But America passed the figures sought.
Both high and low, the fast and slow,

Until at last the goal was passed
The German loan was far outclassed.
Now this good week we all should seek
To save fill foods from waste or leak.

Acrust of bread away, By Jing!

And thus our armies yoti will bless.

USE THE PARCEL POST
The Parcel Post is certainly a
godsend to dairy farmers and
poultry raisers. -Weld, in his
"Marketing of Farm Products,"
cites the fact that during inves
tigations made by the United
States Department of Agricul
ture "there were shipped 9,131
eggs in lots of from, one to ten
dozen each over Various distan
ces, and out of this number-only
327, or about 3.6 per cent were
broken, and about one-third of
these were broken so slightly
that they could still be used."
Many more farmers should use
the. parcel post for regularly
sending both fresh eggs and
fresh butter to town customers.
It is easy to get suitable con
tainers, and nine times out of
ten Mrs. Farmer , will welcome
such an opportunity to add to
her income. The Progressive

HAPPENINGS OF HAYWOOD,

We hope that all the student.
who had examinations for t'ais

him in an English class for a

TRAINS NEVER SO BADLY
i CROWDED HERETOFORE
Snenrnr Oof 25 Npvpv in i
the history of railroading have i
the trains been auite so badly
crowded as at present. Old
road men declare that traffic is
now heavier that ever known
before. Nos. 37 and 36, two of
the heaviest trains on the main
line, usually run in two sections
and sometimes with two loco
motives to the train. On Tues
day the second section of No. 37
carried 15 express cars exclu
sive of other heavily loaded cars.
The statement of President Har
rison some months ago that
every man, every engine, every
car and every facility of the
road will be pressed into service"
is now being realized.

RICHEST MAN IN ENGLAND
London, Oct. 25. The richest
man in England today is one
whose name is little known to
the general public and who be-:
fore the war was scarcely known
at all outside of business circles.
He is Sir John Ellerman, the
controller of numerous shipping
lines, whose fortune has been
estimated at close to $175,000,
000. He spends much of h:s
time advising the Government
on the vital matter of shipments.
Sir John, who 's but little more
than 50 years of age, has had a
remarkable career. Starting
life in a small way as an account
ant, hp now ftavs more income .
!t.x than any other man in the
' United Kingdom. His income is
p'tinated $15,000,000 a ye-r
