RECENT DEATHS.
DeuisOn,

The death of Oscar Alanson Denison,
at the home of his son, Avery E .Denison
at Bloomington Center, February 7,
brings sorrow to a large circle of rela-
tives and friends. He was born in Burke
Dec. 13, 1917, and was the 9th in a
family of eleven children, the two young
est only now living: Isaac A. Dennison
of Mechanic Falls, Maine, and Mrs. N.
P. Bowman of this place. His parents,
Isaac and Electra Newell Denison, were
among the first settlers OF the town Of
Burke coming from Connecticut in the
year 1899, settling on a farm in the west
part OF the town where Alanson lived for
over 80 years. He married Mary Evans
Sept. 26, 1887, who died June, 1889,
leaving one son, Avery Elisha, born
Sept. 1st, 1888. In Dec. 1840, he mar
ried Adeine Stoddard, who died in 1850,
leaving one son, Adelbert Stoddard, who
was born March 8, 1916, and now re-
sides in Boston. In 1851 he married
Lydia Putney, who died March 80,
1890, Sept. 1884, he united with the
Baptist church in Burke and had never
withdrawn his connection from that
church.
He was benevolent, kind hearted, cheer
full considerate of Others and we'll
calculated to make and retain friends,
and will be greatly missed by his large
circle of relatives and acquaintance.
He leaves two sons, three granddaugh-
tiers, four great-grandsons, and over 40
nephews and neces to mourn the loss of
a kind father, grandfather and uncle.
His funeral was attended at Browning
ton Ctr on Saturday, February 8, Rev. S.
c. Vail speaking from II Timothy 2,15.
Study to show thyself approved unto
Coda workman that needeth not to
be ashamed" In speaking be said, "Mr
Denison was workman that needed not
to be ashamed. He has toiled incessant-
ly and honorably in all the various and
responsible positions he was called to fill
He has now laid aside his work and is
resting, sweetly restingi in the Lord" His
body was placed in the tomb at Lyndon
Centre, to be buried in the spring by the
side of his wives-at which time memo
| rial service will be held at the COugrega
tional church.

Especial to News and Observer

NSpeclal to News ana ODSerVer.)
Kinston n. c., August 19.-Late Sat
urday afternoon after the arrival of the
eastbound passenger train. the board of
trustees of the Kinston Graded Schools
We're each individually served with
notice of an injunction issued by Judge
Winston, restraining them from pur-
chasing the webb" lot for the loca ton
thereon of the new school buildings.
The Web lot. the property of the heirs
of the late Jas. b. Webb, and upon
which is situated the residence of Mayor
Geo. b. Webb, is just across the street
from the West" lot, which the people,
by petition and in mass meeting. asked
the trustees to buy for this purpose.
1t is not known just what action the
board will take in the matter. The tax.
ings of this injunction is the first step
toward legal solution of this trouble
and it is quite probable that the whole
matter Will eventually be settled in the
courts. Personal feeling runs high and
it is unlikely that any other settlement
can be reached.

Facts for Parents to Consider.

The following facts will be of value
to all parents and guardians looking for
the best school in which to enter their
sons and wards!
PURPOSE-The purpse of the school is
to lead pupils to cultivate truthfulness.
self control, a right sense OF honor,
habits of systematic and close application
in the performance of every duty, and to
give them thorough preparation for
college.
LOCATION.-The school is located on
an eminence in the suburbs of the town
of Oxford, about forty five miles north Of
Raleigh, and one hundred and twenty
miles south of Richmond. 1t is on the
Southern Railway, between Richmond and
Raleigh, in the Piedmont section OF North
Carolina, and is about six hundred feet
above sea level. more beautiful and
suitable location could not be found.
CLIMATE.-The climate is delightful,
and healthfulness excellent. The school
is far from the land of perpetual sum-
mer, as the thermometer often registers
below freezing during the winter, and the
first killing frost occurs about the 10th
OF October. There are comparatively few
days, however, during the winter, when
OuluOcT exercises ana sports cannot be
engaged in with benefit to boys.
BUILDINGS.-The buildings are COM
modious and in excellent condition The
main school building was planned by the
principal with special view to the re-
quirements of school for boys. Recita-
ton rooms, society halls, reading rooms
and bedrooms are located in this build
ing. All rooms have outside windows, and
doors opening into the main central hall.
Nothing has been spared to make the
building comfortable and convenient. The

ing pressed to hard, but they confessed
that 1t had never occurred to them that
girls were suffering, or might suffer,
more than boys.
In Manhattan and the Bronx said
one member. 1.-THE curriculum is undoubt-
edly too much crowded. In seven years
the same results are attempted as in
Brooklyn in eight. A committee of the
Manhattan School Board Is now consider
Ing tightening the burden laid upon pupils.
1t will, I think. recommend that either
the course be extended one year or the
curriculum be substantially reduced"
Would it NOT be desirable and feasible
to have separate courses for boys and
girls?' was asked.
"No; decidedly not The curriculum, In
my opinion, must remain, as 1t is at
present, the same for both boys and girls.
To create different courses would intro
duce grave complications in the matter
of promotion for teachers. The teacher
who had instructed girls In a minimized
course would have no experience qualify
ing her to teach boys in more elaborate
course, and. consequently, she could not
be promoted and receive the larger salary
attached to boys classes No; the idea
of different courses is impra it
would work injustice to teachers ana
breed discomfort among them"
Another member said that the subject
was at present an academic" one; that
1t was one which the Board could scarce
ly investigate. 1t lacking qualifications
for so doing; but that, in view of the
emphatic warning note OF eminent spec
ialists. 1t was undoubtedly important and
deserving Of consideration. Thus far 1t
had never in any form been before the
school authorities. There was a general
agreement among the members that in
visits to the schools nothing suggestive
of the i'll consequences described by the
gynaecologists had been observed.

BURNS SET BANDAGES ATTIRE.
Curious Case of Spontaneous Com
bustion After Wounds Had Been
n~a~aoL
From the New York sun.

From the New York Sun.
Louisville. KY, June 4.-What is con-
sidered a remarkable case of spontaneous
combustion is brought to light by DR..
s. E. Woody, who for several years has
been dean of the Kentucky School of
Medicine and for twenty years a profess
sor of chemistry of that college. The re-
port of the case comes to DR.. Woody in
a letter from DR.. B. c. Wilson, reputa-
BILE physician of Soldier, KY, In part
the letter says:
"A child about 4 years old was burned
on the extremities and abdomen by its
dress catching on fire. The burns in
each locality, being of moderate severi-
ty and strictly superficial. were not suffi-
cient to have caused fatal result. The
burns were dressed in the following man
ner: First busted with subnitrate of
bismuth, then liuseed oil was freely pour
ed on and the parts wrapped in cotton
batting and a sheet pinned around It
snugly, and lastly quilt was wrapped
around this.
1.-THE child was put to bed and instruc-
lions were given not to remove the dress
ing. The child complained bitterly all
night long, the parents thinking that the
suffering was due to the original burn.
About daylight they saw smoke arising
from the bed, but being very ignorant
people thought It was the fire leaving the
burn and did not remove the dressing
until later, when the child was dying.
Upon removing the dressing they found
the inner aspect OF the sheet was scorch.
cd the cotton batting was burned all
most entirely up lover the abdomen) and
still smouidering.
1.-THE child was burned into the intes-
tines in three places and died In a few
moments. There was not the least evil
dence or the remotest possibility of the
second fire originating from the outside.
and there was absolutely nothing used
but the bismuth and linseed oil.
Dr. Woody gives the following exp.ana-
ton:
Under the circumstances II must have
been spontaneous combustion of the lin
seed oil. The bsmuth subnitrate and cot
ton, divided finely, distributed the oil and
exposed a large surface TO the action Of
the oxygen OF the air The warmth from
the body added to the heat and FASTENED
the oxidation. and the covering confined
the heat until the oxidation became an
actual combustion"
