A trip around the world, start
ing with only $40 capital, is
something few of us would want
to undertake. But that is just
what Alva A. Cloyd of Salisbury,
now a student in the University
of Missouri has accomplished.
Back in 1902 Mr.. Cloyd, a son
of A. A. Cloyd of Salisbury, be-
came so troubled by his eyes
that he was forced to give up his
studies. len silver dollars was
all he had, but he started around
the world on that. He was gone
nearly nine years, travelled
800 miles, made 20 sea voyag-
es, spent 8 months in ocean
travel, visited seventeen foreign
countries, and brought home a
wife.
Mr.. Cloyd returned to the
University in September 1911.
His trip cost him about $4,000,
every bit of which he had earned
: on the way. Starting out from
Salisbury he visited several Of
the western states, and then
went to San Francisco. There
; he got a job for his passage on a
: ship and the end of his first sea
voyage was at Melbourne,
Australia.
2 Teaching in New Zealand is an
] experience Mr.. Cloyd has had.
. He also visited New Guinea and
a several of the equatorial islands,
5 where he had some experiences
a with wild men. Some of these
Y have been written in an article,
"Off the Beaten Track in New
Zealand" published in the Wide
: World Magazine in London.
5 1t was in Melbourne, Australia
7 where Mr.. Cloyd worked as a
/ clerk, that he met Mrs. Cloyti.
d She accompanied him on the
il larger portion of his travels.
s After leaving the English
y colonies, Mr.. Cloyd went to the
PHILIPPINES, where he taught in
't the government schools. Leav-
e ing the Philippines he started on
e a pleasure trip to New York by
T way of China, Japan, India,
4 Ceylon, Italy, Switzerland,
Germany, Belgium, France,
g Spain and England.
) Mr.. Cloyd will receive his A.
i B. degree in the College of Arts
,; and Science of the University of
y Missouri next June and will
q finish the work for his degree in
( education during the summer
3, session. He is studying for the
u ministry. He expects to visit
his father in Salisbury this
/ summer.

IF TURKEY JOINS GERMANY.

If the Turkish empire should
decide to east its lot in with
Germany and Austria, it woulo
be a sure enough world war, fol
1t is regarded as likely that
Greece, ltary and all the Balkan
states would declare war against
Germany and Austria and Japan
might be allowed to send troops
into Europe to help the allies.
At first sight it looks as If
Germany and Austria had a bet
ter chance to win without Tur-
keys aid than with it for
Greece, Italy and the Balkan
states now neutral would more
ttan balance Turkeys strength.
But the entrance Of Turkey into
the war mi ght mean more than
the addition of the Turks them
selves, who are no mean fighters
Turkey might easily set all north
ern Africa and western ASA
ahame with war against the
French, English and Russians.
This would endanger England
and France in Africa and Eng
land and Russia in Asia. A large
part of England's subjects in In
dia are MOhammedans and India
Is always on the verge of revolt,
Germany wants colonial posses
sions, and northern Africa and
India may look good to her.
1t is said that Italy is mObiliz-
no a great army and perhaps
the reason is that Italy wants to
keep Turkey out of the war.
That may be the reason Italy has
thus far kept out. 1t will be
fortunate for Europe if the dan
GER of a war with all MOham-
'@nism is averted. 1t is bad
enough and dangerous enough in
the end for Japan and Russia to
be allied on the side of possible
victor in the struggle without
having the dreadful alternative
of the Turk being allied with the
other possible victOr.-Enter-
prise.

CONCERTED ACTION NEG
ESSARY.

"A strong appeal for concerted
action on the part Of the leading
citizens of DOnaldsonvi,le is made
by the Donaldsonville Chief,
which other cities might well add
hereto. The Chief says:
Individual effort is a good
thing, properly applied, but if
every man in this town decided
to work in his own particular
way for the upbuilding of the
community, We wouldn't prog
ress verv far or very fast. GA
long pull, strong pull and a pull
all together' has often pulled a
town out Of a rut and saved it
from stafnation starting it on the
high road of progress and pros
perity. Buy every fellow for
himself, with no cohesive com
munity effort, will soon put the
best town in the country in the
m1ck and mire and effecutally
block the wheels of progress.
One old box is mighty poor de-
dence for moving heavy
load, but put yoke Of them to-
gether and note the teamwork.
When in unison they bend their
recks to the bow, something has
OF come. --
SO it is in the development Of
community. Let the progress
s;ve, loyal citizens work in uni
son for a common cause and
something generally happens,
that something being the build
ing UP of the community, max
ing it a better and more attract

Are you yoked up with the
boosters of this community, do
ing effective teamwork, or are
you pulling in a contrary direc-
ton all alone9

casualties were the fractures the
poor arms and legs, red and swOl-
len, throbbed intOleraoly and
were heavy as lead.
There were yawnlng assures
that laid open the enlIre flank,
! TIE knotted viscera were drawn
alto great hard Jumps beneath
the tight-drawn skin, while as
. the egect of certain wounds the
Iatient frothed at the mouth and
? writhed like an epileptic.
Here and there were eases
where the lungs had been pene-
trated, the puncture now so MIN
ute as to permit no escape OF
blood; again wide, deep orihce
through which the red tide Of life
escaped in torrents; and the IN
iernal hemorrhages, those that
were hid from sight, were the
nest terrible in their effects,
ostrating teir victim like a
hash, making him black in the
face and delirious.
And finally she head more
:lan any other portion of the
Il, anne, gave evidence of hard
treatment; broken jaw, the
mouth pulp Of teeth and bleed
ing tongue, an eye torn from its
socket and exposed upon the
cheek, cloven skull that showed
the palpitating brain beneath.
Those in whose case the bullet
Lad touched the brain or spinal
arrow were already as dead
men, sunk in the lethargy OF
coma, while the fractures and
other less serious cases tossed
r,stlessly on their pallets and
ttseechingly called for water to
GEench their thirst.
Leaving the large room and
passing out into the courtyard,
pe shed where the operations
were going on presented another
scene Of horror.
In the rush and hurry that had
continued unabated since morn
ino it was impossible to operate
on every case that was brought
in, so their attention had been
atined to those urgent cases
that imperatively demanded it.
Whenever Bouroche's rapid
Judgment told him that amputa-
ton was necessary, he proceeded
once to perform it. In the
same way he lost not a moment $
time IN probing the wound and
extracting the projectile when
ever it had lodged in some local
ity where it might do further
..lschief, as in the muscles OF the
neck, the region Of the arm pit,
high joint, the ligaments OF
the knee and elbow.
Severed arteries, too, had to be
tied without delay. Other
wounds were merely dressed by
one of the hospital stewards TN
der his direction and left to await
developments. He had already
with his own hand performed
four amputations, the only rest
that he allowed himself being to
attend to some minor cases in
intervals between them, and
was beginning to feel fatigue.
There were but two tables, his
own and another, presided over
by one Of his assistants; a sheet
had been hung between them, to
isolate the patients from each
other.
Although the sponge was kept
constantly at work, the tables
were always red, and the buckets
that were emptied over a bed of
daisies a few steps away, the
clear water in which. single
tumbler of blood sufficed to red
cen, seemed to be buckets of I'M
mixed blood, torrents Of blood.
