Y ARGUS 35 ITALY IS CERTAIN TO ENTER WAR Italians Will Cast Their Lot With the Allies THE SITUATION GROWS TENSE Action May Be Delayed Until Thurs day ; Again the Storm Hay Break Sooner All Preparations Are Hade. London, May 16. The King of Italy has refused to ' accept the resignation of Signor Saiandra and the premier and whole war cabinet retain office. This, it is confidently believed here, foreshadows the almost immediate en trance of Italy into the circle of belli gerents on the side of the allies. Action, however, may be delayed until the meeting of the fchamber of deputies on Thursday when the pre mier will announce his policy and will receive the support of a majority of the deputies. I ; r Should the expected action of Italy materialize, the allies will jse in a bet ter position than ever to launch their big oiiensive movement against Aus tria and Germany, -which ii being pre ceded on the western front; by a series of attacks, furnishing a foretaste of what is to come. - ' .' ': . : . s'-'y. Scarcely had the German attacks oti the British lines, aroundj Ypres ex hausted themselves and jthe French offensive north of Arras shown signs of coming to an end than J the British became the aggressors north of La Bassee, and the French and Belgian troops began their attempt to throw the Germans back from the Yser ca nal. "; '-' These attacks, according to the French" ofBcial account, which how ever, does not agree with that from Berlin, were' successful and agaiiTcom pelled the Germans to counter-attack the most costly of all operations in siege warfare. Fighting at both points continues today and in Arlois where the French added a further slight gain to those made -during the week and which, combined, constitute the big gest movement of either army in the west since the battle of the Marne. Fighting also is in progress in the Woevre, particularly west: of the for est of LePretre, which the French also won during the past week i There does not appear to be much change in the general situation in Galicia although the Austro-German armies have been able to make an ad ditional slight advance by the with drawal of thi Russian rear ' guards, which have been holding off the vic torious troops until their own armies could get into new positions behind the San river. This territory promises to be the scene of another big battle for the Russians, strongly reinforced, will make a desperate effort to stem the tide which has been- running so strongly against them. In the Russian border ; provinces along the east Prussian frontier iso lated engagements are occurring in which both sides claim jto have the advantage. , ! j ; BASEBALL SATURDAY.

DISPLACE ONE TEACHER SCHOOL State AgCIlt For Schools - - . - . ;' Presents SClieme T OF Enlargement WILL ENLARGE DISTRICT FIRST Increased Fund From Additional School Area Will Make Possible Larger Grounds Better School, More Teachers and High School Training. To establish a three teacher rural elementary school in the place of every iiiefpc:ent,: one teacher type cf school in th various progressive rural com-rcuftitles- in North Carolina is the aim cf llr. L. C. Brcgden, State Agent for Elepentary Schools. The scheme which Mr. Brogden ha? j advanced and has been preaching is embodied in his report to Dr. J. Y. Joyher . a3 Superintendent of Public Instruction. "it has been our purpose," declares Mr. lirogden in this report, "to study v It i the individual teachers in the re? reseutative counties selected, the needs and conditions of the typical individual' schools including the most efficient, the average, and the moat inefficient. Upon our visitation to these schools, and after we have had a,nL to make a careful study of their s and conditions, the physical con-. tihijons of the school room, its heating.

In his reply to Dr. Joyner he outlines the scheme which is already working successfully in Granville, Johnson, Sampson, North ampton, Alamance and McDowell coun ties as well as several others. The first step necessary is to enlarge the territory of the one teacher school district. The average size of the one teacher school district is now approx imately three miles square. It is urg ed that this be enlarged a3 much as possible without putting the children to the inconvenience and hardship of a too great distance. Two and one half miles, it is set out, should, not be con sidered an unreasonable walking dis tance when the roads are fairly good. Thus, the limit of four--by five miles for the school district, or better yet, five by five miles, or twenty-five square miles for the district, is reached logi cally, r", '.: j-'.' I School and District. -A school site of six or eight acres with room for athletics and demon stration farm work, a " three room school building, and three competent teachers," a home for the male prin-r cipal with provisions for the teachers boarding there, all these will be se cured through 7 the increased funds growing from the increased size of the school district. .: Two Years High SchooL The principal and two assistants will give the boys and girls of the school at least two years of high school instruction so that when they complete the course In the three teach er school they will be able to complete the full course of the State High school in two years. 'i Training for the Farm. Since by far the largest number of the children now growing up" in this community will become farmers and farmers' wives, and since all the edu cation that at least ninety pr cent of them will ever receive for life for work will be gotten in their local school3, then it becomes necessary that this ninety "per cent shall have that train ing and that education best suitedj to their life and work in this community," says Mr. Brogden and therefore urges the organizations of Boys' Farm Life Clubs for the boys and Tomato Grow ing Club3 for the girls to provide train in g test suited for the life" and work of the young people In their commun ity.' - i More Tban Toll and Drudgery. . But Mr. Brogden continues : "Coun try life-la more than toil and drudg ery; mpre than corn growing and" bread making; it is more than a stren uous struggle for food and raiment. TO i MUST BE 110 EVASION Germany's answer to the 'United States will be awaited -anxiously, but whether or not the Berlin government makes friendly reply ! and agrees to acquiesce in all the terms of President Wilson's clearly and vigorously phras ed note cabled through the state de partment to Ambassador Gerard and delivered Ty him to the German for eign office, thi3 document will become history. . I-.'" The President has written a number cf diplomatic notes distinguished by poise and a dee sense of Justice a?i well as rare literary skill, but this latest protest, called forth by the loss; of more than 100 American lives in the sinking of the Lusitania, Is the most masterful of all. It is couched , in the usual terms of diplomatic courtesy-, but in -the discussion of-Tital.de-tail3 it i3 clear and earnest and the touches'' of fine; irony in it could not ba excelled.;' .-"'. J -, ;'. The note makes it plain that there must be no evasion on the part of the German government. . AHVEIlIiSlil) LETTERS Genialnia? In th Pastsffice at Golds boro, May 17, 1915. MEN'S LIST.

" - 1 ' - . ":' :"' ; . The county farm demonstrator is not left out in the scheme. It is urged that if the principal does not own his own home in the neighborhood', than the members of the club and the prin cipal will elect the farm demonstrator their leader to continue through the summer months the work begun before the close of the school.' And on the same principle, the tomato club vwork er will have the same j-elation. to the girls' fclub work that the demonstrator has to the work of the boys. - School is Social Center. And. in it all, the auditorium of the schools, is to become the social center of the neighborhood. That is the gath ering place for all the' community, an l the meeting place - for all the forces engaged in community uplift. Hera, with spelling matches, debating con tests, musical entertainments, lectures, illustrated addresses, the value to the auditorium will be worked out. With this,, the school will become a vitalized community center in which all the forces of the community work ing for its highest well being will be unified, stimulated, and . made more effective. v CONSTANT CALL OF THE SOUTH IIER EES0USCES OF MIXES, QUAE RIES, FORESTS AKD FARMS ARE INEXHAUSTIBLE. 258,700,000 acres of land in the South ' lin, Hilda Foust, Leslie Langston, Vir are covered with forests capable of'ginia Johnson, Annie Hornaday.

I I SOUTH CAN GROW CORN IN PLENTY tti. -v -n si lve ears Ot lioys' Corn Club Work Demonstates This to World 58 TO 60 BUSH ELS PER ACRE Five years of Boys' Corn Club work in North. Carolina has ..demonstrated', to the world the'' wonderful corn 'growing possibilities of the South according -to ' Mr. T. E. Browne, director of the work in the State, who reviews the history of the activity of the 'boys . in North Carolina: in. corn growing and sees in this 'work the future and the near fu ture in which, the South will be pro ducing all the corn, it needs. ' "One of the first and most promi nent results , obtained, a!o::g with the. work in ether Southern Staies,. was the demonstrating to the world the wonderful corn growing possibilities :' of Southern soils, says Mr, Browne. Until" the members of the corn clubs began to grow the enoromous yields of 200 bushels and mere of corn to the acre, and to grow it cheaply, other parts of the country had not thought of the South as a corn sett ion." So i; remained for the boys between the ages of ten and eighteen years to prove that the real corn belt of the nation lies in the South and it is only a ques tion; -of; a few years now,- since we have become aroused to our possibili- . ties before the South will be grov. iug all the corn it needs. Opportunitj to Tfacli. "The corn clues nave iurrathed an opportunity-' for . .isp-chuif . rLe oojs a few. of the siaii,ie :iaudaJieatal prin ciples of good farm practice, and by their open-mindedness ani.willingaesi' to try the methods advocated, they have been averaging from fifty-eight to sixty-five bushels of corn per acre, at a cost of from thirty-five to forty five cents per bushel. The average yield for the State has been about eighteen bushels per acre during the same time. "The Clubs also furnish an easy and practical means of connecting the ru ral schools with the lives of the pu pils, and of clinching the lessons on agriculture as taught in the school room, by having the children put these principles into practice upon thejr contest plats. Whenever the boy or girl is hown the practical, economic value of their school work, they at once become more interested. Pig and Poultry Clubs. "As an adjunct to the Corn Club work, and for the purpose of teaching them simple lessons in animal indus try, the Pig and Poultry Clubs hava been recently added to the Club move ment. By means of these clubs the boys and girls are taught the valueof feeding their corn on the farm in or der to get a double value, and are taught the important place of live stock farming in all successful agri culture. - Develops Self Reliance. "We find that these clubs develop in the child self-reliance and initiative, a disposition to take what he has and make the most of it. Hundreds of boys who have gone into these clubs and learned the value of intelligence applied to agriculture, have become in terested In the farm; have determined to attend the Agricultureal and Me chanical College, and learn more of the science of the soil; and having caught the vision'are preparing them selves for a large usefulness, either as teacher of their fellows in some ag ricultural High School, or as a pro gressive, up-to-date farmer in their home communities. - ; "These boys, having gotten into the spirit of the club work, realizing the larger purposes of the club as symbo lized by the national emblem the four H pin which stands for the develop ment of the '.whole "man; enter life with , an entirely changed viewpoint. Wheth er in the school room, In the commer cial field, or upon their own farms, they enter upon their duties with a desire to be of service to their fellow man. ; ' - . - "Finally, through the agricultural clubs, we hope-to build up a whole some social life in the country. There is no phase of rural life more neglect- 4 ed today than the social phase. Too many farmers forget that. they were ever young, and that there is difference between exercise and recreation. It is true the farm boy gets all the phys ical exercise he can stand, .but how N much real recreation? Through , the club picnics and various club gather ings we hope to add emphasis to the social side of countrj life."
