GREATER ". N. C. MEETING.
Annual Session OF Organization HELD
in AsheYilIe Tuesday.

in AsheviIle Tuesday.
(By T. r. Barrows, Sec. Greater Hen
dersonviIlef Club.)
At a meeting of the Greater Was
tern North Carolina association. be1d
in the associations rooms, Ashevil,o
on Tuesday, it was enthusiastically do
c1ded to hold a great rally meetino
sometime late in February and to in
Yite President Fairfax Harrison Of
the Southern Railway to be present
It is understood that President Harri-
son will accept the invitation.
The report of Col. Cohen, manaeor
OF the association, was read, adopte5
and favorab1y commented on. The re-
Fort was extremely interesting and its
brief outline Of the associations re.
cent activities proved, eonelusively tho
absolute need ofethe organization for
the Development of. Western North
Carolina.
Among the men present. men from
all over Western North Carolina, wera
5 II HardWick of the Southern Rail-
way. The last time Mr.. Hardwick All.
dressed the association was on October
%, when the late President Finley
was also present. Mr.. Hardwick. in a
carefully considered and very interest
ing speech, said:
Tfak1o-s 49, 49,
President Harrison instructed Me
to say that he is deeply interested in
this section and will do all within his
power to carry on the work looking
to the higher development of Western
North Carolina"
Mr.. Hardwick also pledged S., 900
from the Southern Railway for the
continuation Of the association work
during 1914 and earnestly advocated
voluntary continuation instead of
forced assessments from The various
counties composing the. association.
Attention was drawn. to the coop
Eeratfon extended Col. Cohen by the
Southern through the tremendous and
far flung organization and to the great
amount of money being spent by the
railroad in advertising this section.
In this connection it is interesting
70 look over the files in Col. Cohen's
office of the great New York papers
carrying Advertisements of this sec
ton. In last weeks New York Sun,
for instance. is a superb picture of
one of Hendersopyille,s lakes, duly
credited to HendefsonVille, too. There
were altogether something like two
pages of Western North Carolina adj
vertising, display and reading, in this
one paper alone. The names of the
Stferent hotels of Hendersonville, such
at the St.John,the Kentucky Home, the
Waverly, r well displayed in this
space.

cause there is nothing III a letter, a
mere symbol, to touch a childs cx:
perience and so to quicken his cur-
iosity. The letters are meaningless
to. him. they have no content, and car
|ry no idea,
The method is unnatural, genericai-
.ly, because the childs natural proc
esses are analytic; specifically, be-
cause no child ever learned to talk by
naming his letters first, and reading
aloud is simply talking from the print
ed page.
Finally it is a waste of time and
energy, of time because in the time
used in learning the alphabet and 70
drawl dullythe spelling senseless
syllables and disconnected words the
child could learn to read; of energy,
because whatever the child is forced
to do without interest d~issipates en-
ergy. And as a matter of fact, the
pupil does not learn to read, after all.
by the alphabet plan. For example,
when he has named the letters cat
in that order. he cannot, unaided,
pronounce the combination, for there
is nothing IN the names of the letters
that could possibly suggest what the
words vocal value is.
Another synthetic plan teaches the
sounds of the letters first, instead Of
their names, and drilIszthe learner on
the sounds and their symbols until
he can readily pronounce familiar
words. But. the same objections an
ply to this as to the a, b, c method,
and with nearly equal force. altho
more interesting. The fundamental
objection to these two methods is that
they are synthetic. Unless the teach
ing be very skillful, the child taught
by either plan Will be apt to do but
little more. during the first year., than
half call half spell the words in the
~primer-ana that is not emily reading.
but makes learning to read more diff
icult than it would otherwise be.
q shall discuss the analytic method
next week.

TURKEY SEEKING TROUBLE
Believed to Be About to Declare Wa'
on the Allies.

Washington, Sept. Great Britain
has asked the United States to take
care of her diplomatic interests in
Turkey in case of a declaration OF war
on the allies by the porte, which is
momentarily expected.
The British embassy has been IN
formed by a cable from London that
German officers had gone TO Con
stantinople to take charge OF the Tur-
kish army and that declaration ci
war from Turkey was expected.
A Rome cablegram received here
says:
"A telegram received from Berlin
announces the mobilization of the
Turkish army.
Following the advice of Field Mar
shall Baron Won Der Goltz, it is stated,
the Turkish government will form an
army of the first line composed OF
200 900 men, all Mohammedans.
"Seventy-two superior German OF
ficers forming the German military
mission at Constantinople have been
incorporated in the Turkish army and
will participate in the war.
"The presence Of German officers
In the army is interpreted to mean that
Turkey will fight on the side of Ger
maDy"

Insects and Flowers.

Experiments on snowy flowers like
the poppy tend to show that insects
are not always attracted to flowers by
the brightly colored petals. but rather
by the perception-d by means
of smell-that there is honey or pollen.
flower bud is inclosed in gauze net
so as to protect it from insects. and
when it expands the petals are care
fully removed without touching the re-
manning parts with the fingers GoI
bees avoid flower If the smell of hu
man fingers is left on it), and the petal
less flowers receive practically as
many insect visits as untouched flow.

Secretary McAdoo Reassures Commit
tee on Merchant Marine.

Washington, Sept. Assurances
that President Wilson will steer a
course during the European war that
will enable the United States TO main
tain its neutral attitude without criti-
cism from any one abroad were today
given 10 the committee on merchant
marine by Secretary McAdOo.
Mr.. McAdoo was commenting on
suggestions that had been made that
if the United States attempted to oper-
ate ships. as proposed in the pending
administration bill, it would be court
ing trouble with some of the Euro
pean belligerents. The secretary OF
the treasury told the house that there
need be no concern on this score.
There is no more puncitihous citi-
zen of this country regarding its neu-
trality than the president observed
Mr. McAdOo. i think you can safely
trust him and the proposed shipping
board not to take any steps in buying
ships that would be calculated to
violate the country's neutrality"

ARMIES NEED SHOES
War Causes Boom In Many Lines OF
Business.

Business.
New York, Sept. 2.-Reports from
American manufacturers show boom
in various lines OF industry as a result
of the European war Several thou
sand shoe workers in ST. Louis have
returned to their machines in the
factories which were closed two weeks
ago, following the declaration OF Wal
by Germany. Three new shoe factories
will be built at Salem, Mass.
Experts in the shoe trade say that
the armies in Europe will require H.
0O0,00 pairs of shoes a month. An
advance in the price of shoes is in
evitable, it is said. Factories manu-
featuring glazed kid for shoe uppers
are behind in their orders and are run
ming at full capacity.
Paper and pulp mills are working
on full time and wall paper mills re-
port big business. Despite the ad-
vance in the price of raw silk the silk
mills are placing heavy orders.
The outlook in the woolen industry
is very bright. Mills in parts OF New
England are working nights because
of big orders and new mill is ben9
built at Washington, X. l., to meet in
creased business.
Work has been resumed in the
carpet mills in Amsterdam, N. l.,
after a five weeks shutdown.

WORLD WATCHES
FOR SMOKE SIGN
Cardinals Voting Today on Sue
CeSSOT to Late Pope
MAFFI LEADER IN THE VOTING

sands In st. Peters Square Learn
Result of BaIotine-Merry Del Val
Receives Complimentary Vote In
Recognition of Services.
Rome, Sept. 2.-Though several bal
lots in the papal election have been
taken, no result has yet been an
nounced. Today, as yesterday, ST.
Peters square is crowded with thou
sands whose eyes are fixed on the
chimney of the Sistine chapel looking
for the signal that announces an elec,
tion. Dark smoke has issued from the
chimney after each ballot, but the
thin, light-colored smoke signal thai
indicates an election has not yet been
seen.
Although all the proceedings of the
sacred college are supposed to be hid
den from the world until the final re
suit is announced, 1t was reportel
after the second ballot that Cardinal
Maffi was leading in the voting.
Cardinal Merry del Val, papal secre
.tary OF state OF Pope Plus, is said to
have received number of votes IN
the first ballot, chiefly, it is said, II
recognition OF his services TO the late
pontiff.
The significance of the little smoke
wreaths which convey intelligence ot
the number OF ballots and their issue,
lies in the fact that after an unsuc-
cessful vote is taken the ballots are
mixed with wet straw, which emits a
dark smoke, and burned. When Il
pope is elected the ballots are mixed
with dry straw and the resulting thin
smoke is hailed by those in the street
as the sign that the election is over.
The serious political situation re.
sulting from the war has SO impressed
the foreign cardinals, that, it is said,
they have agreed to vote for an
Italian.
