Do The Birds Cease From Labor On
The Lords Day?
elizabeth City Economist. }

elizabeth City Economist.)
A story, the truthfulness of which
is Vouched for by a number of re-
putable witnesses. coming from Cur
rituck will make q good text for one
who wishes to preach on S/lday OBJ
servance.
Mr. A. j. Davis relates this story
as follows Last Thursday his sister
Mrs. Edward Forbes, who lives near
harrisburg. in Currituck county, no.
ticed a little Wrenn in her dining room
evidently in search of some place to
nest. Finally she selected a place on
a shelf near the table and commenced
induStriously to work on the nest. The
work she continued all day Friday
and on Saturday two other little
wrenns came in to assist Miss Jennie
in her work and the three Of them
labored hard all day to complete the
work. 1t was not completed Saturday
and when the evening shades fell the
work stopped. The nest was watched
all day Sunday and whether it was a
coincidence or not is not known. but
not a single one of the birds appear
ed and not q straw was laid in the
nest during Sunday. Nothing was
thought of it at the time and it was
supposed that the birds had become
frightened and deciGcd to build
elsewhere. On Monday morning,
however, bright and early, the three
birds appeared and commenced their
work on the nest and never stopped
until it was completed.
Mr.. Davis says the truthfulness of
this can be substantiated by several
persons who were present. He says he
does not pretend to say that the birds
knew it was Sunday and stopped on
that day, but gives the actual facts
and allows the public to draw their
own conclusions.

NO FREE RIDES
To WORLD s FAIR

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Feb. 2O.-The roads
which will control the joint validating
ticket offices in st. Louis during the
worlds fair this summer are the Pennsyl-
vania, Big -Four, st. Louis & San Fran
cisco, Missouri Pacific, Louisville & Nash
vile and Chicago & Alton. 1t is proposed
to establish five or six such Offices and
have central telephone bureau, which
will be connected with the validating head
quarters of the st. Louis lines The of
fieers of the various lines entering st.
Louis are inclined to shut down COM
pletely on "deadhead" travel during the
exposition period. 1t is pointed out by
the railroads that they will have all the
passenger traffic they can handle during
the fair, and that it is not reasonable to
ask for free transportation when the rates
VIII be as low as are anticipated The
question will be definitely settled by a
special committee which is to meet here
next week.

FACTS ABOUT JAPAN

The japanese empire has existed since
1853, when the present emperor overthrow
the Shotgun, or military commander, and
the Daimios, or feudal lords, and laid the
foundation of new Japan.
The empire consists of five principal
islands-Honshiu, Kiushiu, Shikoku, Yezo
and Formosa,-with hundreds of smaller
ones. Japans foreign trade today is
three times greater than it was ten years
ago. The United States is her best Gus
toner, and Great Britain takes second
place. Silk and copper are the chief ex-
ports; she imports ships, iron and cot
ton.
Prior to the war with China the Japan,
csc army consisted of Six divisions with
peace strength of 10000 and war foot
ing of 26S,000 men. Since the war the
expansion program has been going on, I'M
til the war strength is now 100000 All
Japs between II and 40 are liable to call.
The army is composed of the Imperial
guard, the twelve divisions, the Formosa
garrison and the gendarmerie. In rough
figures, the regular army consists of 100000
men, the reserve $4,000, the territorial
army 100000.
Japans army pride is the infantry,
which during the march to Picking showed
up better than any of the allied powers.
Her weak point is her cavalry, the horses
being small and unfit for service Most
of her artillery horses have been imported
from this country, and are big, powerful
animals.
Japan's coast is divided into five mari
time districts Each has it's headnuarters
with docks, arsenals and barracks; the
headquarters are Yokosuko, Kure, Sasebo,
Maizuru and Muroran. All are equipped
for repairing ships quickly. Japan now
builds her own smaller ships and protected
cruisers, and armor shops are being con-
structed so that she will soon be able to
construct her own battleships and ar
mored cruisers.
