BURNSyILLE WANTS Low RATES.
IN EFFECT ON MAIN RAILROAD.

Raleigh, N. c., Sept. 16.-The cor

tire day to, hearing the petition OF p.
F Watson, of Burnesvtle. and others
for the Black Mountain railroad, OPP
Grating twenty-four miles from Black
Mountain junction to Burnesville and
Pensacola, to be declared a part of the
Carolina, Clinchfeld and Ohio system,
and enforce the lower main line
freight rates instead of the higher
short line rates now applied. The
petitioners, with Manning and Kitchin
as counsel, presented evidence that
the road was really owned and oDer-
ated by the C. C.. and o. =.
On the other hand, j. Bis Ray. pres
ident OF the road, testified that it is an
independent line, and pays the larger
corporation for every service render
ed, although a number of persons are
officers for both roads. He insisted
that the lumber business is ninety
per cent. of the roads freight service,
and that this has fallen on sixty per
cent. since the European war started.
He estimates that in ten years the
timber business, will have been wound
ma and. the road will be dependent on
other industries developed, that rates
now applied are by special contract
mostly that were fixed by contract
before the road was built that the
cost 100000, is especially costly TO

The following may be of interest to

The first meeting of the Henderson

people of the State in the different
counties realize what the University
is, and its value to the State. This
purpose was endorsed as one of the
purposes of the club. However the
primary purpose of the Henderson,
County club is to cooperate with, and
help each other in such a way that we
may get the greatest amount of good
out of our life here at the University.
Since the organization of the Hen
derson County club the membership
has steadily increased, having three
members the first year, six the second
and twelve this year. The members
are as follows:
Pharmacy Department: Wilson w.
Allen, senior; w. P. Whitmire, senior;

AMERICAN TOURIST TRADE WILL
BE BENEFITED s1OO,OOO.OOO
Medical Experts Believe America viii
Profit Greatly by European War
From Tourist Standpoint

New York, Sept. 16.-More than
10O.O00.OOO annually expended by
American health-seekers, who. dur
ing recent years. have felt themselves
dependent upon the European spas,
is expected in future to be diverted to
American resorts. where as eficacious
treatment can be obtained. Accord
ing to the medical scientists America
has springs whose waters are just as
eficacious in the treatment of certain
complaints as are the famous sap at
Carlsbad, Baden-Baden, Nauheim and
other European resorts which have
been very popular with wealthy Amer
leans.
In addition, it is pointed out by the
scientists and medical men that, in
view of the situation in Europe, II
is likely that the near future will sea
artificial radium bath established in
all the principal American cities and
that these will supplant the European
spas. Institutions already have beea
established in some American cities
where the European spas treatment
may be taken by the use of prepares
radium drinking solutions, .radiuD
baths, radium earth packs, etc.
A careful estimate of the annual
expenditures by American patients
who journey to the European spas
is placed we'll above the $780,
0G0, 900 mark. This sum, which has
gone to foreign-owned companies and
European hotels, will, it is pointed
out, be kept in the United States and
add another imposing figure to the list
OF tremendous OUTLAWS of money that.
will be diverted from Europe in the
next few years as a result of the war

USED BY THE SCANDINAVIANS
Easily Traced to the Days Of
the Old Vikings.

When we say a ship is bound for a
certain port or homeward bound, we
are using, not the past particle, as
we might think, of the English verb to
bind, but of a Scandinavian word
meaning to prepare, to get ready-a
word which in the form of "boun" still
lives on in northern dialects.
"Billow" is probably Scandinavian
word which survived in one Of the
northern or eastern dialects, which
still preserve so many Danish words.
1t made it's way into southern English
in literary standing by its use by
Spenser and Shakespeare.
Wake" for the track of a ship is
another Scandinavian word preserved
in dialect. It's original meaning, as
Professor Skeat tells US, was that of
an opening in the ice, especially the
passage cut for ship in frozen lake
or sea, and then, from being applied
to the smooth watery track left by the
ship after it's passage through the ice,
it came to be used when there was no
ice at all. This useful word is one of
the nautical terms which the French
have borrowed from the English, al
though it is not easy to recognize 1t at
first in its French form of ouaiche, and
ii is still used on the Norfolk breads
with its original meaning of an open
place in the ice.-English Review.

Motherhood Most Highly Developed

The contention that the hen Is the

in a farmyard were two puppies for
whom the mother had no affection, SO
an old hen took pity on them, and
when she went to roost they followed
her. Squatting In corner of cart

youngsters crawled under for the
