Still Undecided.


Physicians, it seems, are still yunde-
cided as to whether or not pellagra is
infectious. There are those who hold
that it is while some contend that it
is not. A special sent out from Dy-
ersburg, Tenn, says:
"The pellagra symposium held here
last night was well attended by ply
sicians and citizens of this city, and
close attention was given tc those
who spoke upon the subject of pella-
gra. DR.. Albright. secretary of the
state board of health, was the first
speaker, his subject being the history
of pellagra in Tennessee. He stated
there were 1,130 reported cases in the
state.
"Other speakers were DR.. Somer-
vile and Leroy of Memphis and DR.
Krause, chairman of the state pei
lagra commission. A negro woman
who has been a victim of the disease,
and treated successfully by a local
PHYSICAL, was shown the public by
DR.. Krause to illustrate a part of his
remarks on the subject. DIR. Albright
is decidedly of the opinion that pei
lagra is an infectious disease and the
state beard of health has recommend
ed isolation in every case. On the
other hand, Dr.>Krause does not hold
to this theory, and Sc stated in an in
terview with a representative of the
Commercial Appeal"
If there is any doubt Whatever as
to the matter precaution should be
taken. 1t seems that a great many
believe that the disease is infectious
an dit seems to us that steps ought to
be taken tc guard against a spread

Fine Feed Growing with the Rains

Up to several weeks ago it looked
as if the farmers in this section would
find it difficult to provide sufficient
roughness for their stock and cattle.
during the winter but on the farms of
those who. went ahead and sewed
peas and corn for ro~ughness, you will
find that the majority of them will
make almost if not quite as much
forage this year as in years past, al
though they will gather little or nc
peas and corn. Mr.. Fred Gray Dea-
ton has peavines that are waist high,
and his field is not an exception. A
"Trip out through the country reveals
to the eye some very pretty crops Of
the ~peavine, corn, cane and crahrgrass
varieties. All this extra growth is
brought about since the copious
showers that have fallen within the
past few weeks.-Mooresville Enter

Final and definite action was taken by the
board OF directors OF the Commercial club
Friday noon before that body elected the
new executive committee. The vote was
unanimous, which is on the surface a sur
prise In view OF the contest which has
ragged between advocates OF the Union Pa

but several things happened between
Thursday at 6 p. IN. and the meeting Fri

The special quarters committee OF the
club met with the Woodmen Thursday
night at the Omaha club and again Friday
morning and at adjournment just before
noon had definite and generally satisfac-
tory proposition to submit to the directors
or to the new executive committee.
The directors heard this proposition and
voted for II as one man. Some men pres

Union Pacific building, but they realized
that a fight was absolutely useless.

DIFFICULT IS GAME
Of SITTING STILL
Story of the Birds Nest In
the Tree One That Aids
Parents.
By MARGARET LOUISE WALLACE.
If<N ED, why don't you sit still?'
Il lust can't, mother dear

IfrR Ed why don't you sit Stlll?'
Il just can't, mother dear.
Something makes me wrig-
gle around like that"
, Suppose mother wriggled around
like that"
Il think it would be funny" giggled
Ned.
1T wouldn't be funny at all. 1t would
be horrid. I'd fall right off her lap
said Bess Indignantly from her resting
place in mothers arms.
OF course, 1t is hard for the babies 70
sit still, but it is a necessary lesson,
| and will save mother and other people,
too, much trouble when it is learned.
There is pretty song and game which
helps to teach the children to quiet
their restlessness.
Give them the balls and tell them a
little story about the bird who built a
| nest high up in the tree, on a stout,
strong limb, so that the wind could not
dislodge it. Tell how the mother and
father bird brought straws and sticks
and horsehair from the barn, and wove
them into the nest, and then how the
mother bird laid her egg in the nest,
and took great care Of it.
Lesson of the Egg.
Call the ball the egg, and show the
babies how to cradle it tenderly in two
tiny soft hands, and rock it gently,
very gently, to and fro as If a very
soft wind were blowing the tree top
Then tell how the little egg rests in the
nest, and the mother bird has flown
away into the forest, and the egg must
be carefully Graded until she returns,
when she will sing a sweet song in re-
turn for the kindness.
The song, which may be found in
several of the books of kindergarten
songs, begins:
See my little BRIDES nest,
And an egg in 1t doth rest,
But the little bird has flown;
To the green wood he has gone.
Egg in nest so snug doth lie,
Birdie will come by-and-by."
1t has a tra-la-la chorus, and may
be easily learned.
Why They Sit Still.
By the time the story has been told,
the egg admired and talked about, and
the song sung. If you have done the
whole thing as interestingly as you
should, the children will have sat as
still as mice for ten minutes or more.
First, because they were interested in
what you were telling them; second,
because they were holding the egg
CbalD so tenderly, caring for 1t while
they watched for the birdie to come
back, and, thirdly, while they were
singing the song.
Another game which will train them
to keep their restless hands and feet
still is the cat and mouse game. Some
Of the children are the mice, who must
keep perfectly still. or the cat, who is
another child, will see them and pounce.
Let the little mice sit in a row, hands
folded and feet straight on the floor,
all the bright eyes watching the cat,
who is either mother or one of the chill
dren. If a child moves the cat touches
him, and he is caught" and out of the
game.

- HE fall ushered in a season Of
frenzied dressmaking from which
modistes and designers are
just extricating themselves with
difficulty. Few knew how to cut the
skirts and coats that were fashionable
in October. The narrow skirt was mis-
managed in many instances, with The
result that it was neither comfortable
nor graceful; the peasant sleeve was
made stiff and hideous until its proper
adjustment was accomplished, while the
extension of the skirt in a straight line
over the waist, so that it ended in ar
artistic line under the bust, took dea
of time to successfully learn.
It is because the many intrfcacies OF
the fall styles were long in being con-
quered that both makers and wearerS
of suits and gowns are happy to learn
that no radical changes are promised
for the spring.
The essential features of the winter
fashions will hold through the spring
and possibly through the summer.
The narrow skirt will prevail; the high
waist line continue feature, and novel
and effective trimmings will be applied
on the spring coats and skirts.
Black and White CoIors
Black and white has proved a success
full follower of the vivid colors. and will
continue to form the background COM
bination for the crude colors that artists
in the profession have learned to put
against it with amazingly striking re-
suits.
The pastel shades formerly used are
supplanted by more vivid tones. Vivid
red, Chinese and cobalt blue, orange yell
low, papal purple, and grass green were
among the colOrs chosen for the spring
models in black and white.
This sounds rather startling, but 1t is
made possible by the present method of
yelling colors.
The gorgeous trimmings of Egyptian
and Oriental color are put on the inter-
lining of the up-to-date costume under
a yelling that artistfcally softens the
effect
Under the black chiffon slip of one
black and white gown is shown a mo-
sale Of gold lace. coIored crystal, scarlet
velvet, and Chinese blue satin on the
upper bodice which is enough color TO
relieve the funereal effect of any black
and white combination.
Satin a Feature.
In suits satin of a heavy texture will
be the new spring feature. Moire of
fine texture with the softness of satin
will also be in vogue. These suits had
their origin in Paris shortly before
Christmas to meet the demand of the
smart women who went to Egypt and
Nice America speedily adopted the idea
for the women who would take the edge
from winter by spending portion of it
in the South.
The fashion proved most effective, and
cannot be considered an extravagant one
since these suits of satin and more can
be worn through the spring and summer.
The models show the short slim coats,
single breasted, turn over collars, vel
vet band at the hem, on the sleeves, and
again at the foot of the narrow skirts.
A gusset of velvet is let in the two
side seams of some Of the skirts, run
ming from the hem half wav up to the
hip. On others the gusset Is shown
only on the left side, severely untrim-
med to give the impression of a panel
under a slashed directoire skirt.
Others Of the very smart suits, par
ticularly in moire, show the wide square
sailor collar that is so very effective.
