Tuberculosis Is Curable In Early Stage of Disease Sanatorium,—Early diagnosis and sanatorium treatment mean the cure of 89 cases out of every 100 of tu ; bereulosk, figures at the North Car olina Sanatorium for the past eleven years show, hound in the early stages and the proper treatment given, more people recover from tuberculosis than from any of the other major diseases. The first symptoms of the disease are obscure and hard for even a doc tor to rightly diagnose. Often the symptoms of tuberculosis are taken by both doctor and patient to be some other disease. A cough is thought by the majority of people to be always the first symptoms of tuberculosis. It is not. Frequently a cough does not appear until1 the disease lias passed the early stages. Tiredness, or fa tigue without good reason is one of the first and more conimon symptoms. A loss < f weight should put one on gunrd. Loss of appetite and indiges tion is often tuberculosis and not stomach trouble. A slight blood-spit ting, pains in the chest or pleurisy, and a subnormal temperature in the morning—rising a degree or a degree and a half during the day, afe prac ticnlly always symptoms of tubercu losis. A person with any of these symp toms should go at once to a doctor and have a thorough examination. The North Carolina Sanatorium employes two doctors, specialists In tuberculosis, to hold clinics for the diagnosis of tuberculosis throughout the state. A clinic is also held nt the North Carolina Sanatorium every morning except Sunday from 8 to 11. Greater Curtailment In Mills Of South Complete shutdown!; and addition al curtailments will la* ordered in the yarn spinning industry, unless mar ket conditions change immediately, it was forecast in the bulletin of the Southern Yarn Spinners’ Association, with headquarters in Chnrlotte, re leased fo ('publication Friday by C. Singleton (ireen, secretary, says The Charlotte News. As a means of finding some method of improving conditions, the yarn spinners, like the North Carolina cotton manufacturers, Imre started constructive efforts to procure com nlete and ami Cate reports to guide the mill men in their operations, it was indicated, The bulletin refers to the fact that the textile manufaeturers appreciate that under present condition accurate and vital statistics in regard to stock:), volume of orders, shipments and production is highly essential to the intelligent operation of manufac turing plants, and more especially so in the textile and yurn industries. One of the most vital topics discuss ed at the convention of the Cotton Manufacturers’ Association of North Carolina, held in Asheville July 3 and I, was a plan to establish a bureau for : collection ahd distribution of infor mation Concerning market conditions The plan met with great favor. The bulletin of the Yarn Spihners’ ' Association stated conditions ih the yarn market remain unchanged. ‘‘Prices ore at about the same level,” It Says, “with practically no demand. The (Government report of July 2 lias had but little effect upon the market, and it is generally conceded that the low level of yarn prices has been passed. “Demand is likely to remain <|uies refit until after inventory and- stock taking has been completed Award Degree To Suspended Student Some 2I> years or so afro J. N. (Ding) Darling was suspended by Beloit college for caricaturing the grave and reverend saigniors of the faculty. Last Monday J. N. (Ding) Darling was given the honorary degree of doctor of letters by Beloit college for cariccatur'ng the foibles of the world. Evidently it makes some difference whose ox is caricatured. But Beloit is right this time. The cartoonist deserves his honors. Me is a power In model1 a life, dealing with | it, diagnosing it, and dosing it with sharp medicine. Beneath the exag geratioh. the broadly, even crudely, i comic, there is, in the work of any cartoonist Worthy of the name, a pr< - , found analysis of human life. The true cartoonist is aa artist— even though he may not he a master draughtsman. fie must see to the i bottom, seize upon the essentials .and make that stand out. The fun into which he turns if is the sugarcoating on the corrective pill he daily admin isters to mankind. He is a seer, a preacher, teacher and prophet, and a keen physician. At his best he occupies much such a 1 place as the stage at its best. We are glad to see Beloit recogniz ■ the truth of the cartoonists place as it has been exemplified by one of its sons.—San Erahclsco Chronicle. It’s never the best policy to imitate a bad example. BIBLE NEEDS NO DEFENSE DECLARES C'LtDE R. H( EY (Continued from f1f«t page.) proclaimed. Men are always impress, ed by an honest presentation of the Message of God, and the ohe thing the world needs today above everything else is to get a vision of God. ‘There is not so much unbelief in the world ns we sometimes are lead to believe. Some men boast of their" unwillingness to accept or believe the Bible, and are found questioning i! there be a God, but when overtaken by an ygreat adversity and suddenly confronted with a present calamity, they instinctively cry oftt to God for help and turn to the Bible for eonso, ; Intion. ‘Walking along the death row ’ in the state penitentiary some time ago I found every occupant, White and colored, engaged earnestly In reading the Bible. The hour tar all doubtings and questionings had pass ed with them ami, facing a grim fu ture. they sought solace in the Book [ of Books. That has been the eltperi ! ence of the enlightened human face in j all ages. “The Bible classes are making a ; fine contribution to good citizenship.; The spread of the spirit of helpful'-' I ness, the broadening of human ay^n ! pathy and the rendering Of unselfish* service are the direct and Immediate fruits of the study and application of the Sunday school lessons. Men are al ways made better by contemplating lofty characters. High ideals tend to lift men Out of the mire of selfish ness. The study of the life of Christ must indelibly impress men with the divinity of His nature and the sub | limity of His character. Ail of this | culminates in making better men, I better homes, better communities and a better state.” MR. GIBBONS BURIED AT NEW HOPE FRIDAY Mr. W. T. Gibbons who died at his j home near Blacksburg.

Newspaper advertising has nil the other forms backed off the boards, including the bill boards. The largest firms 1ft the country are spending their millions in the newspapers because they have discov ered that these are the most effectual agencies for reaching the people with their stories. Here is the way some of the great est concerns spend money for adver tising in the papers and magazines: Victor Talking Machine company $1,900,000 in newspapers, $1,184,1110 in 31 leading magazines. Ford Motor company, $2,000,000 In newspapers and $051,250 in 31 leading magazines. Postum Cereal company, $875,000 in newspapers, $1,274,830 in magazines. Chevrolet 'Motor Car company, $1, 060/100 in newspapers, $552,005 in magazines. Dodge Brothers, $1,200,000 in news papers, $641,000 in magazines. Colgate and company $1,500,000 In newspapers, $186,200 in magazines. Calumet Baking Powder company, $1,400,000 in newspapers, j Wm. Wrigley, jr. and company, $1, 250,000 in newspapers. Standard Oil company of Califor nia, $500,000 in newspapers. Literary Digest, $500,000 in news papers. Union Pacific Railway system $570,000 in newspapers. The July issue of Advertising and Selling contained the above figures and list of concerns along with a cata logue of 60 of the largest firms in the United States which spent in 192* in newspapers $32,834,949 and in magazines $29,434,111. If it pays the greatest businesses hj the eotmtry to advertise in the newspapers, it will pay the smaller proportionately. I Dance of Death News and Observer. That a dance of death may be some thing more than a figure of the im agination was shown by the holocaust which accompanied the total eollapse last Saturday of the Pickwick club, Boston’s noted tenderloin dance hall, ♦dth the loss of 43 lives. Variety, a New York amusement magazine, de clares that the collapse of the build ing is attributed to the popularity of what is known as the Charleston dance. A fire had weakened the building, Which was the shell of an old hotel. In its account of the cause of the hor rible catastrophe, Variety says: “The off-beat rythm of the Char leston, especially when danced by an enthusiastic gathering stirred by liquor, is said to have caused the building to sway so violently that it simply fell apart. In support of the ' Charleston theory as the cause of the .catastrophe, building inspectors have been stationed in all the older dance halls to investigate if the new dance step is a menace. “The violent vibration of the Pick wick club just prior to its collapse was explained to be similar to the strain on wooden bridges when cross ed by alarge body of soldiers in step. Under army rules troops crossing such structures must break step. In that way vibration is diffused instead of being centralized.” From the earliest days of the Cath olic church, it was customary to illus trate in dramatic plays the power of death over the life of man with a dia logue between Death and representa tives of the various classes, church men and laymen, from the pope and emperor down. At first Death was re presented in an earnest and solemn manner, but soon his attitude took the character of a dance. Later paintings came to take the place of the plays in which Death was represented as a dancing figure. The most poputar ver ! sion of this subject was bv Dante and Petrnch, the “Triumph of Death.” The modern dance of death is of a different kind. Seems that harmony in the Demo cratic party is promoted only by keep, ing the leaders apart, not by bringing them together.—Wall Street Journal. Lord Oxford says that the Liberal party is one and undivided. We think he underestimates their number. We ourselves make it as much as two, or pven more.—Punch.
