I The Argus commends Senator Sim mons for this frank and pertinent ut terance, and we believe the Goldsboro Chamber of Commerce could not do better than get in touch with Senator Simmons, who in his exalted political position and high sphere of influence is most fortuitously situated to be of inestimable service in the develop ment of the industrial population and possibilities of this section, of which Goldsboro is essentially the gate city As the Wilmington Star recently and so truthfully said, "going west for agricultural opportunities is a thing of the past in North Carolina," and commenting on that statement' furthei the editor of the Star in its issue of today says: "We based that editorial on the fact that the United States De partment of Agriculture awarded the premiership to North Carolina for the acreage production of cotton, tobacco peanuts and several other (staple crops, and certainly the actual re sults and the possibilities of farming in North Carolina ought to be enough to keep our own people at home and attract thousands of homeseekers from abroad." Following the Star's declaration that going West for agricultural op portunities is a thing of the past iD North Carolina, the Norfolk Virginia Pilot adds: I "And so it is in Virginia; and so it ought to be in every Southern State The hegira from the South to the West was born of conditions which no longer exist, which, in fact, are in rapid process of reversa1. In the for mer time the acreage of this section was devoted in such proportions tc the growth of cotton and tobacco that the planters became td a great exteni dependent on the West for their sup plies of corn and bacon. It was on the South that the Western farmer grew rich despite the disadvantages of cli mate under which he labored, and Southern money paid out in millions for hog and hominy has been the foundation on which the wealth of the West was builded. This situation has sof rachanged that the South 1 is pro ducing food cereals, provender and hn?a in Quantities approximating a' sufficiency for home consumption, with the prospect of an early surplus for exportation." I In doing that very thing lies some of the greatest opportunities of agri pujture in the South. In five years North Carolina has cut her purchases pf food and teed products frpm more tb.an $64,000,000 tp $39,640,885 last iyear. That mejins something Jike $25,000,000 kept in North Carolina in five years, or a saving pf $5,000,000 a year. There are great possibilities in keeping on doing that till the State becomes absolutely independent and turns the tables by selling what it used to buy. North Carolina's acre age production of cotton last year was one-third greater than the entire Southern average, and sines it has been demonstrated that modern meth ods prove the agricultural premiership of the South, the Virginian-Pilot states It strongly and logically in this asser tion: c ; i "There is no part of this broad con tinent where so great returns await intelligent Industry on the part of jtillers of the ground. There is no where that such a variety of crops can be sowed with certainty of an abundant yield. There is nowhere else that so much open weather pre- yails and where farm workj may go pn uninterrupted for so many months WHEN A MAN INCREASES bin parnine DroDerty. he increases bis fire insunance, and it is just as essen tial that he increase hi elife insur anca when he increases his earning rapacity, National Life Insurance Co. of Vt (Mutual)- I ' H.

IRWIN-GRANTHAM LOVELY HOME WEDDING OF WIDE INTEREST IN THIS CITY In the presence of the parents of the groom, who had come on front Rome Oa., for the happy event, and that of the immediate family of the fair young bride, and a small circle of especial friends, Miss Annabel Grantham, tt lovely, popular and accomplished daughter of Mr. John M. Grantham and Mr. Ralph Irwin, a rising young business man of Atlanta, were happily wedded last night at 8 o'clock, the ceremony being very quiet by reason of the recent bereavenfent in Mr Grantham's home. The ceremony took place in the South parlor of the beautiful home of the bride, where a lovely bridal arch and alcove had been constructed, built of pines and palms and ferns ant adorned with a profusion of white and pink carnations and lighted candles Here the mutual vows were softly plighted before the -officiating j minis ter, Rev. Geo. T. Watkins, pastor of the First Baptist church, the bride gowned in a becoming traveling suit of brown, with -hat to match, and soon after the ceremony the happy pair with several of the bride's young friends were driven by her brother Mr. Raymond Grantham, in his large touring car to Selma, where they took the train over the Southern for Sa vannah, where they will spend their honey moon, and then go to the home of the groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Irwin, in Rome, Ga., for awhile before taking up their abode perma nently in Atlanta. I The ceremony last evening was pre ceded by a family dinner, of the old Southern style in all its appointments of festivity and easy hospitality, and in the drawing room adjoining; some lovely presents were displayed. The happy young couple have; all in life to make them happy, and cer tainly do their hosts of friends wisbl them length of days and all that is bright and good. . j The popular young bride will b greatly missed in Goldsboro, and her friends are already beginning to look forward to a visit from her home.

The one-time reasons for an exodus have ceased to be, and the reasons for an inflow from other and less fruitful and kindly regions to the South are becoming more I widely known and more convincing every year. The movement snouia now oe from the West to the South, and it was one of the leading men of that once agricultural Mecca whoj lately proclaimed: 'The future belongs to the South if the men of the! South will only have it so. Southern farm land under your rare climate, can yield more for the feeding and cloth ing of the world than any like acreage on earth, and these fertile fields now give only a small part of the wealth they are meant to give and -can be made to give'.

Every member of the Chamber is earnestly requested to lend his ; support to the movement now actively commenced for the bet ; terment of the City of Goldsboro, not only by his own presence, but by persuading others to come who are interested in the development ; of the city. To all such a most sincere invitation is extended and ' they will be cordially welcomed. It is most important that the members of the Chamber of Com i merce become acquainted with thir new Secretary, Mr. "Robert L. ! Marcley, who arrived on Saturday morning from Washington, D. C, ; and it is to be hoped that he will secure strong support, not only i from the directors of the organization, but from every member and j from every non-member who has Gqldsboro's interest really at heart. Mr. Marcley is entitled to moral and practical support from the ; rank and file of the citizens of Goldsboro. He has abandoned re munerative work in the City of Washington, where his resignation I from the National Press Club was accepted with marked regret, to j come here to work in a cause which appeals to him strongly and which is certainly worthy of his efforts in every respect It is be i cause of his confidence in the City of Goldsboro and in the people of , Goldsboro that he has taken up this work. He is here not the representative of any particular interest or interests, but engaged in work for the benefit of the entire citizenship of Goldsboro. He represents in the higher sense, not merely the business element of j Goldsboro, but the public at large and he has the interests of the ; public at heart. Let this Thursday night meeting be the largest and the most 1 spirited ever held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms. Keep firm- ly in mind that non-members of the organization will receive a most cordial welcome. There will be plenty of cigars and much good j cheer!

True to the memory of the Lost Cause and its immortal military Chief tain Gen'l Robert E. Lee, Thos. Ruffin Chapter Daughters of the Confederacy and old survivors of the men who fol lowed Lee, held memorial services in his honor yesterday afternoon at 3:30 'clock in the Womans Club room and it was one of the most impressive on record. Mrs. Robert Parrott presided at the piano, and Capt. T. W. Slocumb was master of ceremonies. The prayer was pronounced in elo quent words and fervent patriotic spirit by Rev. N. H. D. Wilson, pastor of St Paul M. E. church, and the ad dress was by Rev. J. Hallowell Dick inson, rector of St Stephen's Episco pal church, who without manuscript and in words of eloquent eulogy and in thrilling oratory pictured anew the peerless personality of Lee, and point ed with uplifting and inspiring enthu siasm the lessons of this great man's life as an example for the emulation of the youth of this day and of all time. Mr. Dickinson, always a most charming talker, was never heard to better advantage, and seldom, if at all, has a more beautiful review of the life and personality of Lee been given to the public. Mrs. W. D. Creech, in her always pleasing manner, read "A Toast tc Lee," and Col. Jos. E. Robinson re cited ''The Sword of Lee." The attendance, while not as large as Goldsboro should give to this hal lowed anniversary, was creditable and everyone thoroughly appreciated the exercises and enjoyed the occas ion. As the assemblage filed from the hall into the street, they were photo graphed by Mr. H. R. Mason, for his moving picture reels of Goldsboro. OAK RIDGE INSTITUTE IS DESTROYED BY FIRE.

Radium was described today to the House commit tee on mines as the only cure the med ical world has discovered for cancer the disease which experts before the committee labelled a rebel against all the laws that govern human tissue. Four men who have devoted years of study to cancer appeared at the re quest of the committee to which have been referred resolutions empowering the President to withdraw from entry public lands known to contain radium bearing ores. They were Dr. Howard A. Kelly, of Baltimore; Dr. Robert Abbe, of New York; Director Gaillord of New York State Institution for the Study of Malignant Diseases, and Dr C. F. Burnham, of Johns Hopkins Uni versity. All the doctors agreed that the crying need of their work was more- radium of which there is less than two grams in reduced form now in the United States. Discussing the case of Representa tive Bremner, of New Jersey, who is undergoing radium treatment in Balti more, Dr. Kelly declared he felt cer tain a cure could be effected if more radium were available, as it was he said the patient showed encouraging symptoms. Dr. Kelly added that he and his as sociates were working .to discover s process for the reduction of radium from the ores of Colorado. But one concern now furnished radium to the medical profession, he said, and its formula for reduction is held secret The committee will meet again Wed nesday. Representative Taylor, of Colorado announced -that the men who held much of the radium lands in Colorado would ask to be heard. ment the flames found easy prey in the main building, which was a wood en structure. The fire was discovered about four o'clock Saturday morning by some students rooming in the institute building, and the alarm was rapidly spread. The boys were almost in stantly in their clothes and at the scene of the fire. By the active and heroic work on the part of the student body, the postoffice' building, which is also on the campus, and all the dor mitories were saved. Therefore, all the students together with their per sonal property escaped injury. The loss entailed was approximate ly $30,000.00. The property, however was-well insured. . The Methodist church, which war also on the campus, likewise succum bed to the flames. The student body LAKE-HATCH BEAUTIFUL CHURCH WEDDING IN PRESENCE OF LARGE ASSEM BLAGE L,. Wiaky- The wedding of Miss Lucy Williams Hatch, the lovely and so universally esteemed daughter of Mr. and Mrs Jas. R. Hatch, of this city, and Mr Fred K. Lake, one of the best known young business men of his home town Florence, S. C, last night in St. Pau M. E. church in this city, was an event in which the whole county, where the fair young bride is so well known and popular, was interested and conse quently the church was thronged with city folks and country people from near and far to witness the happy and brilliant crowning of her young wo manhood at the bridal altar. Palms and pines and ferns, with a large centre of lovely white flowers formed a most impressive and beauti ful setting for the bridal party. The ceremony was spoken by the pastor Rev. N. H. D. Wilson and the ring service was a part of the bridal vows, adding to the solemnity of the always impressive ceremonial. The grand pipe organ was dexter ously presided over by Miss Lydia Winslow and the processional was tc the strains of the well known bridal march, and held the admiring interest of the great congregation that taxed the capacity of the spacious edifice. The usua order of approach was observed by the bridal party: the ush ers coming first. These were Messrs. L. L. Hatch, a brother of the bride and L. H. Miller, C. W. Muldrow and T. Robert Timmons, all of Florence: C. Next came the dames of honor and. their husbands, all recent brides and grooms, as follows: Mr. and Mrs. Les lie McLaurin, Mr. and Mrs. Abbott E Lake, of Florence, S. C, Mrs. Mc Laurin being a sister and Mr. Lake a brother of the groom; Mr. and Mrs. Jas. J. Hatch, of Mt. Olive, the latter brother of the bride. The dames wore brocaded charmeuse and carried shower bouquets of enchantress car nations. These were followed by the little ribbon girls, Elizabeth Lake, sister of the groom, and Annie Elliott Lee, of this city, both dressed in lingerie. Then came the Maid of Honor, Miss Ethel Hatch, younger sister of the bride, gowned in pink charmeuse, and carrying a large bouquet of Killarney roses showered with sweet peas. She was followed by two little flow er girls, Margaret Borden Lee and Mary Reese Royall, dressed in white lingerie, with pink rosettes, and carry ing baskets of roses and carnations mingled with ferns. Then came the bride with her fath er, a veritaDie dream or loveliness in her bridal robes of duchess satin, trimmed in pearls and lace, with flow ing bridal veil, and carrying a shower bouquet of lilies of the valley. As she neared the chancel, where stood the waiting minister, the groom was led from the side door by his best man, Mr. J. P. Moon, of Florence, and re ceived his bride from her father, the two then turning to face the minister and speak their mutual vows, piaf made them man. and wife. Immediately after the ceremony the bridal party first repaired to the home of the bride's parents and thence the bride and groom were driven to the union station where they took the north bound train for an extended trip to Washington and New York, after which they will be at home to their friends in Florence, S. C. An elegant bouffet luncheon was served at the home of the bride's par ents yesterday afternoon, at which seventy-five guests, here for the happy event, were present, and here, too was seen a bewildering galaxy of beautiful bridal presents from friende and the neighbors fought manfully to save the church building, but were finally forced to give up, and to see the church consumed with the other buildings. At the ringing of the bell this morn ing the student body assembled on the campus, and, in the presence of the smoking ruins, was addressed by the faculty. The plans for the continua tion of the school had been revolving in the minds of the faculty long before the buildings were entirely consumed and at this assembly were laid before the boys, to which they responded with cheers. The members of the faculty expresed their gratification at the fine spirit of loyalty on the part of the students. Temporary resita tion rooms have been provided for in the different buildings on the campus and school wjll continue, possibly without missing a single day or class Professors J. A. and M. . H. Holt have served their State in many ways both in the Legislature and out, and the student body, as well as the people of the State, extend to them their deepest sympathy.

NEWS THAT IS NEWS Judging from press reports the ma jority of the citizens of Goldsboro have acquired the habit of promenad ing around with a "gun" in their pock ets. Every time that Isome offender against the law is apprehended and attempts to get away, some one yanks a "gun" and begins throwing lead in the direction of the fleeing culprit. Sometimes the bullets strike their mark and sometimes they do not. However, this "gun toting" habit is a bad one and should be discouraged. N -w Bern Journal, Jan. IS. Will our good friend 6of the New Bern Journal who thus lends his wide ly circulated columns to the promul gation Of this startling as well as dam aging slander upon the people of The Best Town in the State, publish the "press reports" from which he deducts the above conclusion.
