Endowed with in abundance of the milk of human kindness, he had earned the respect of all who had ever come in contact with him by his solicitousness foi those less fortunate than himself and by his understanding of the human prohlems confided in him by those who sought his help and advice. Bora 42 years ago in Germany, he came to the United States when he was nine It was to his own unaided e'iforls that he won his prominent position in the film industry He was a quiet, unassuming soul, so unobtrusive in fact that It was not until his marriage to the glamorous Jean Harlow, plati num-hairen star, that many people first heard of him. It is an excellent testimonial to Bern's character and qualities that, in a city where jeal ousv is the predominant human emotion, he was begrudged his stsccesr by none Today his tragic end is the one topic on the movie lota.

Judge N. A. Smelaid held. In an order signed In Wake county superior court Friday, The matter, started in. Forsyth] eoiinty, was ordered moved to Wake j by Judge A M Stack, on request, of!

The Democratic campaign in! I North Carolina will jo waged on! the old. tried and successful plan In j i operation for many years, that of | many platform speeches of leaders and hand-shaking before and after, and not, as suggested by sending the candidates on a whirlwind mo itorcade march touching briefly ■ every county slnd principal town and city in the State with platform talks and greetings. The suggestion is purported to have come from friends of Robert R. Reynolds, colorful candidate for II he U. S Senate, and is somewhat jin line with his very successful pri mary campaign in an eld Ford However John Bright Hill, his sec ond primary campaign manager and now secretary to the State Democratic Executive Committee dentes that he has trad any part in the suggestion. It doubtless came from some modern and youthful members of the party who wanted to see something spectacular and enlivening. But State Chairman J. Wallace Winborne is going about it in the orthodox manner that has been suc cessful in about ail of the cam paigns since the reconstruction era. He is getting out good Democratic material and arranging schedules of speeches all over the State for ail of the candidates and many other prominent Democrats. Campaign Opens. The opening big guns of the cam paign may well be said to1 have been sounded between Greensboro and High Point Saturday afternoon, at a meeting arranged by the Young Democratic Club of Guiiford coun ty, when all of the leaders of the party were present and several of them made brief speeches. Govrnor O. Max Gardner spoke on Franklin D. Roosevelt, Demo cratic nominee for President. He described the early legislative days and the courage and honor display ed. of the attack of infantile par alysis. which he fought and won, of his days as assistant Secretary of the Navy, of his work as Governor, of his fearless handling of the Jim my Walker case, and o' the fight he is making, against selfishness and privilege. "His only weapons are his clean record and the Democratic platform,” said Governor Gardner. Senator J. W. Bailey, Governor nominate J. C. B. Ehringhaus, Sen-I ate-nominate Robert R. Reynolds.; Chairman J. W. Winborne and oth- j er Democratic leaders spoke, at. one j of the most enfhuslascic gatherings j of Democrats in many moons.

I) United States Senator from New York, TULAREMIA” is not a eon roon disease, but I am wr, injr about it because sever,. *f my readers have written roe rr nesting information aboot the ail _men!. It used to be believed ths' tularemia afflict ed aoiinalt alone. It men a red most mrt monly the wile rabbit a n < squirrel. Now it is known to af diet man as eaj> iky as animals Tularemia n caused by » germ called th» _ oaeuias mu Dr. Copeland name ” The di* *ase is transmitted, either by han Uing diseased animals, or by th* bite of inserts which have fed or diseased animals. Botchers am laboratory workers who skin 01 handle animals are those most ir danirer of been mine infected. The germ enters the body through a tiny scratch or cot on the hand, and at the point of in fection a pustule or pimple soon ap pears. The part becomes red and swollen. The glands about the el bow and in the armpit are swollen and tender. Other symptoms are headache, fever, chills, genera body pains, nausea and vomiting. Effects of Talaremi* These attacks vary in severity The fever may be persistent, lasting for several weeks. Convalescence may be slow, and several months may elapse before the afflicted per son regains his normal health. Most, of the cases reported have been traced to the handling of in feeted rabbits, and precaution! shonld be taken against infectior from that source. During the rab bit season it is advisable that but chers wear gloves, and rabbit! shonld be carefully examined foi any possible signs of contamination The animal suffering from tula remia appears ill and does not scurry away when the hunter ap proaches. On examination after killing, the infected rabbit show! many whitish spots on the surface of the liver and other organs. When this appearance is found the ani mal should be discarded. Thorough Cooking Essential Fortunately, thorough cooking kills the germ of tularemia. Cases of tularemic poisoning from in fected animals occur only when the meat has been improperly cooked. If you handle rabbits, wear gloves and make sure that you have no cuts or abrasions on your hands or arms. Examine the liver and other internal organs, and if you find the small white spots I have described, the animal is probably infected and should not be used. Infected animal meat should be de stroyed by burning. Early attention to the destruction of diseased animals will do much to prevent spread of the disease Governmental agencies are at work all the time to wipe out this menace.
