BAD FOR PRONUNCIATION.
Silent Reading and Neglect Of Con-
vsrsation Arc Harmful.

Silent Reading and Neglect Of Con-
vsrsation Arc Harmful.
Perhaps the most potent OF infiu-
ences toward diverse pronunciation,
especially difference in accent, Is the
fact that we seldom or never hear in
conversation a vast number Of words
which nevertheless constitute an inn
portant and indispensable part of our
vocabulary.
"By silent reading and neglect OF
conversation language ITSELF" declares
Richard Grant White, ''is coming into
disuse." The result of this practice
is not only that we are always men,
tally registering pronunciations pecul-
lar to ourselves, which we have no
means of ascertaining to be uncommon
or ridiculous, but also that the natural
tendencies of our language, unrestra1n-
ed by the conservative force which oc-
casional use in conversation might ex-
ert. rapidly foster new pronunciations
and produce diversity OF prOnuncla-
ton even among the most careful
speakers.
All these influences obviously sup
plement each other in resisting any
trend toward uniform pronunciation
and facilitate the progress OF the tend
encies Of speech peculiar to our Eng
lish tongue.-Robert J. Menner in At
lantic Monthly.

Nash County Creates Health Degart-
Ment.

A joint meeting of the County
Board of Commissioners, Board of
Health and Board Of Education was
recently held in Nashville to discuss
the advisability Of employing COM
petent physician to devote his en-
tire time to the prevention Of sick
ness. 1t was overwhelmingly de-
cided by the boards that this be
done, so provision was made for the
employment of such an officer.
At the next meeting of the Nash
County Board of Health, it is ex-
pected that competent man will be
decided upon from among q num-
Der of applicants from both within
and without the county.
With Rowan, which at recent
meeting decided to take this pro-
gressive step and is now upon the
lookout for a competent man, and
Nash, there are now twelve coun-
ties in the State having whole time
health officers. The other ten are
Columbus, Sampson, j ohnston. Robe
son, New Hanover, Durham. Gull
ford, Forsyth, Rockingham. and
Buncombe.

FOOD SUPERSTITiONS.
Dyak Warriors Won't Eat Deer For
Foar of Becoming Timid.

Dyak Warriors Won't Eat Deer For
Foar Of Becoming Timid.
In rural Germany one still meets
with superstition that he who eats
during Il thunderstorm will be struck
by lightning. AbstaiEing from food
during an eclipse is common among
savages; also belief that in eating the
flesh Of any animal one absorbs that
animals characteristics. Thus an In
dian tribe highly prizes tigers flesh as
food for men, but forbids women to
eat it lest it make them too aggressive.
In the KOngO women are forbidden
to eat birds of prey on the same princi-
pie, but are encouraged to cat frogs,
which the men on 10 account ever
touch In the Caroline islands black
birds are a favorite dish with women,
but men must not eat them, because
Ii one did and afterwald climbed CO.
Goa tree he would surely fall to the
ground and be killed.
Among the Dyaks warriors must not
eat venison because 1t would make
them as timid as the deer. Fowls and
eggs are forbidden to women of q Ban
tn tribe because on eating either a
woman would certainly fly into the
brush and never again be seen Again,
the flesh of many animals Is forbidden
because the animals themselves-for
example. swine--are disagreeable to
the eve or have untidy habitS.-Ex-

Loses In Cotton Marketing.
We may summarize our conclu-
sions by saying:

We may summarize our conclu-
sions by saying:
(D. No cotton should be allowed
to lie out in the weather. You will
be sacrificing $40 in grade to every
81 you imagine you will gain in
weight.
(2). The present system of indi-
vidual selling of cotton must go
Everybody for himself and the
devil take the hindmost." There
are too many of the hindmost. y
who catch the gentleman aforemen-
toned; and there are too many un-
necessary middlemen to support
Cotton farmers must organize to
sell comparatively on special days
and in large quantities.
(3). They should have their cot
ton graded by an expert and impair
tial grader.
(4). They should see to it that
they get the benefit of higher prices
for grades above middling as we'll as
the losses for grades below middling.
(5). Especially in long-staple cot
ton is careful grading of the high
est Importance.
(6). Farmers should get reports
of what all available market towns
are paying and find out whether II
any of them prices are being helo
down by buyers trust" acting
without competition. In such cases
they should appeal to the business
men and commercial bodies of the
town for help. They will real
ize that such methods will cause
farmers to boycott the town ano
hurt trade.
(0. Farmers and tenants should
be encouraged to have their bill'
fall due in two or three payment
instead of having to settle every
thing around November first.
(8). These and other plans shoule
be discussed in your Farmers Unlo1
or other farmers organizations; ant
i, the farmers are not organized II
your community. this will bea goot
subject to organize them on. Farm
ers fighting singlehanded can neve

S.:5:a he iag'';S!!iga Person.

'Shun the inquisitive person, for
ne IS ever a lealy vessel" is a say
ing Of Horace. The exquisitive per
son probably wants to know your
private affairs or something which
you wish kept secret, only for the
purpose Of relating it to someone
else and posing as a person Of i'm
portance because OF knowing some
thing not generally known,
tnquisitive persons seldom have
scruples about divulgjng secrets
they are able to get hold of. The
Spanish have a saying: Tell your
friend lie and if he keep it a Sc
cret, tell him the truth" 1t is bet
ter to keep your own secrets or dis
close them only to long known and
tried friends On whom you are sure
you may rely.
Sidney has said, "What is mine,
even TO my life, is hers | love, but
the secret Of my friend is not mine. ="
When anyone confdes his secrets to
you keep them sacredly. Reserve,
although it may be carried to ex-
cess, is a good quality to cultivate.
One seldom prospers in business who
allows everyone to know all about
| hi; affairs
Trouble is often made By telling
what you know or think you know
about a neighbor's affairs. 1t is
wiser to keep firm control Of your
sreech. The fact that someone
wants earnestly to know should set
you thinking.

Hands II Back 10 Oliver.

Washington, Nov. 20.-The long
drawn out fight over the Reidsville
misunderstanding was ended, so far as
Senator Simmons is concerned, when
Mr.. Simmons announced that he had
decided to refuse to allow John L.
Oliver to be named for the job. Sem
ator Simmons said he had read all
the editorials in the Reidsville H :
view, which is edited by Oliver, and
had concluded that he could not al
low a man to be confirmed by the
Senate who had published articles
rejecting upon his democracy, if not
his integrity. such as those written
by Mr.. Oliver.

A Fleet Street Story.

Henry Arthur Broome, in "The Log
of Rolling Stone" says that in 1871
he was engaged in wood engraving for
Punch when one day, at the end OF the
week. short Of money, he stood gazing
longingly at the cherries on coster-
monger's barrow which stood abreast
of the offices OF the London Telegraph.
His gaze arrested the attention OF a
gentleman whom he had often seen
there before, though not at midday.
Then kindly deed was done. The
gentleman, averting his gaze from me
a moment, purchased two paper bags
of this fruit. Then, placing one or
them in the pocket of his capacious
dust coat. he turned to me with the
sweetest smile imaginable and without
a word offered the other one to me,
which l gratefully accepted. He then
passed on and went upstairs to the Of
fees of the newspaper. That was my
first Introduction to the prince OF jour-
nalists, George Augustus Sala.

Forest Notes.

There is fourishing forest school
in the Philippines, and % men were
graduated with the class Of 1918.
The so-called Scotch pine is the
principal tree in the Prussian for
ests. It's wood is much like that of
the United States.
In general it may be stated that
the most dangerous forest fire Pc
riods in the west are in middle and
late summer; in the east they are in
the spring and fall.
Because of the Importance of for
estry at the annual congress in
Washington November IS to 20. an
extra day is added to the sessions,
Monday the 17th.
1t has been suggested that guaya-
can, a very hard wood of Central
America, may furnish shuttle blocks
to supplement dogwood and persim-
mon, now most used, and in danger
of becoming exhausted.
Under forest regulations in Co.
lonlbia, rubber gatherers are re-
ouired to give the trees rest period
in tapping them for gum. The size,
number, and location Of the incislons
are regulated by law. In the Uni
ted Seates similar regulations are in
force IN the tapping Of pines for
turpentine on the Florida national
forest

TIE HOUSE By TRE SIDE OF The ROAD.

There are hermit souls that live
withdrawn
In the peace of their self-content;
There are souls like stars, that shine
apart
In fellowless armament.
There are pioneer souls that blaze
their paths
Where the highway never ran,
But let me live by the side of the
road.
And be friend to man!
Let me live in a house by the side of
the road
Where the race of men go by,
The men that are good, and the men
that are bad
AS good and as bad as l.
Why should 1 sit in scorner's seat.
Or hurl cynic's ban?
Let me live in a house by the side of
the road.
And be friend to man!
/ see my house by the side of the
road,
By the side of the highway of life,
The men that press on with the
ardor of hope
And the men that are faint with
strife,
But l turn not away from their
smiles nor their tears
Both parts of an infinite plan.
Let me live in the house by the side
of the road,
And be friend to man!
l know there are brook-gladdened
meadows ahead,
And mountains of wearisome
height,
And the road passes on through the
long afternoon,
anu OIL CNSACo away w Vic MP
But still I rejoice when the travellers
rejoice,
~ And weep with the strangers that
Nor live in my house by the side of
the road
Like man that dwells alone.
Let me live in house by the side of
the road,
Where the race of men go by;
They are good, they are bad, they
are weak, they are strong.
Wise, foolish, and so am l.
Then why should sit in scorner's
seat,
Or hurl a cynic's ban?
Let me live in a house by the side
of the road,
And be friend to man!

MEMS WANTS.

Man wants but little here below"
That was an ancient song;
We do not hear it now, you know.
The sentiment is wrong,
Man wants just now all he can get,
In way of sordid tin;
The way that some go after it
Seems like very sin.
Man wants fancy touring car.
He wants private yacht;
He wants to get lot Of junk
His reiphbors haven't got.
He wants lot Of suits Of clothes
Ard rare gems for his wife;
He wants chateau by the sea.
To make complete his life.
He wants lot of stocks and bonds,
And Standard Oil preferred;
He also wants lot Of things
Of which he never heard.
He doesn't really want them,
In true sense of the term;
But thinks ne does and that's the
same,
And he'll work and squirm
To garner everything in sight
And keep it stored away.
He saves a lot of useless junk
To meet the rainy day;
And when he dies and passes on
He leaves it all behind.
Because he cannot take along
A thing Of any kind.
'Twould suit lot of men first rate
If they were but endowed
With brains sufficient to invent
A pocket for the shrowd.
