Davenport Welcomes Club Women.

Davenport, Ia, May 1s.-The streets
of Davenport were crowded today with
visiting clubwomen from all parts of
Iowa, and the arrival of each train
added scores to the number already
in the city. This great gathering of
women, of whom more than 400 are
expected as accredited delegates, with
possibly as many more friends, is here
for the biennial convention of the
Iowa Federation of Women's Clubs,
the formal opening of which takes
place tomorrow morning. Various ar
rangement committees net today, to-
gether with conferences of the officers
and members of committees 10 COM
plete reports to be presented to the
convention. The plans made by the
local clubs for the entertainment OF
the visitors are of the most elaborate
character. The large attendance, the
perfect character of the arrangements
and a program that calls for addresses
by many speakers of wide note COM
bine to give promise of the most nota-
BILE convention of olubwomen ever
held in Iowa.
Goldsboro semi-weekly argus., 1909-05-22
OF COURSE 1T is.

That the vast majority of the sur
vivors of the Civil war, which ended
nearly half century ago regard it as
a closed incident is evident. There is
widespread condemnation of the faint
effort being made to use the placing of
the features of Jefferson Davis on the
silver service for the battleship Mis-
sissippi to rouse sectional feeling. The
truth is, that the war is over. The
Philadelphia Bulletin says:
''The cordial greeting given to the
former members of an Ohio cavalry
regiment who have gone to Alabama
to return a battle flag which their old
organization captured in the Civil war
is as creditable to those who extended
it as this voluntary goodwill offering
is to the Union veterans themselves.
Just at present the incident is pecu-
liarly timely, in view of the senti-
ment which has been aroused in some
quarters in both the North and the
South over the dedication of msnu-
ment to Captain Wirz. 1t is well to
have the fact emphasized that the men
who did til actual fighting in the con-
flict that ended forty-four years age
have learned, for the most part, tC
look upon each other with respect
and esteem

AND STILL WE LIVE.

Having become so accustomed to
medicated, adulterated and generally
desiccated foods we are not likely to
give any sudden start of alarm or to
take on the attitude Of the startled
fawn when we read that many of the
millers who prepare -four are in the
habit of using peroxide of hydrogen to
bleach it. Since the American nation
managed to live for a good many years
in fairly robust health, we must inev-
itably reach the conclusion that the
bleached flour has caused no violent
metabolic upheaval. 1t may even be
that blondined -four is as harmless as
blondined hair; and so far as the man
up tree can perceive, blondined hair
is positively innocuous, for usually
everyone knows it is blondined, and
consequently no one is misled in his
judgment or made unduly susceptible
10 it's glittering charm.
The decided blonde who has "decid-
ed it to herself is universally recog-
nizable, and wherefore and why, pray.
should not any member of the fair
sex change the tint that Nature has
bestowed upon her as often as she
may elect, seeing that no deception la
practiced? OF course, should the
doubling Thomas feel that he must
have absolute certainty, it is only nec-
essary that he dip his finger in chros
flic acid and apply the damp digit TO
the glittering rin&, ets-or the suspect
ed f1our-whereupon the spot will i'm
l',cdiately turn To a bright cerulean
fue that will rival the heavens on a
brilliant day. But then, of a verify.
no perfect genttcIran would do this to
d blonde, though the suspecting house.
keeper might try 1t on the new f1ou:
For years the poets have sung of the
oft innocence that lies in golden hair,
snd while this has been universally
:, ,cepted as o poetic truism, it re-
i aimed for the ;okesmiths to conto.t
this innocent thought, and it is not at
all unlikely that some Wiley will arise
and, with horrible mouthings, snatch
the peroxided mantle from the mas
querading flour.

BIG HUCKLEBERRY CROP.


The Strawberry Crop Was Short and
the Total Receipts Were DisappOint-
fng.
Ex-RepreseRtatives H. D. Williams
and d. L. Carlton and Mr.. L. A. Beas-
ley, of Duplin county, are reported
as saying that the strawberry crop
was about 4G per cent. short. and
while the prices were pretty fair, the
total receipts are disappointing. But
they add the good news that the huck-
leberry crop this year will be the
largest on record, and will probably
bring one hundred thousand dollars
into Duplin, Sampson and Pender
counties. These berries, known as
sampson Blues" are very large and
very delicious, command good prices,
and they cost nothing except for the
gathering and Grating. They are vol
unteers and in good year the yield
is large. This year the yield will be
the largest known with one excep-
ton.
