CHEESE nusINess LOOMING.

The war seems to have had much effect on the
American cheese industry the munitions industry
In the month Of May We exported more cheese than the
whole product the country amounted to six years ago
and the volume OF foreign sales is rolling up right along
The increased demand for our cheese abroad partic.
uary in beiligerent countries is naturally having
powerful effect N encouraging the growth Of cheese fac
tories in the United States And the movement is not
confined to the older dairy districts 1t branching out
into new sections with the significant development
starting in the South
On June the first cheese factory south of the Mason
and Dixon line opened in Sugar Grove ~ c. It is
owned by 81 farmers and run on cooperative basis
So far is said to very successful in spite
Of the fact that until established there had never
been market for milk and cream in Waauga County
and consequently every phase Of business is brand
new This cheese is reported to be of such high quail
ty that it commands price of 3 cents pound higher
than the product Of most older factories in northern
states.
Two other factories have cince been started i'm North
Carolina The movement is being encouraged particu-
larly by c. r. Doane the cheese expert Of the federal
department of agriculture who hopes to see 100 factories
established in the hill countries of North Carolina and
similar strings Of factories other southern states where
conditions favorable evident already that there
is money in it, and it an admirable incentive TO the
experimentation which the South now recognizes
the need

communities have right to keep the public thorough

desirable aim is accomplished perhaps the lesson viii so
sink into the minds of advertisers and real estate
owners that both classes offenders will be less nclin
ed to mar the beauty of natural scenery in either cv or
country.
1t is dawning on the American people that landscapes
have their rights and that attractive scenes free from
all sordid reminders very much worth while for
the pleasure their beauty gives also that if profit is TO
be considered it pays better financially for any com.

A NEEDED LESSON.

There is thing that the European war should help
us Americans to learn It should bring us to a better
understanding juser appreciation fairer estimate of
the peoples Of the European countries
IN the supreme test Of the ordeal blood and horror
through which Europe is passing there is one thing
established to which all of us regardless of our sym
pathes' can subscribe All nations involved have
stood the test Of manhood courage endurance Apart
from all other issues involved in this titanic struggle
we must stand with barred bowed heads before the
herosm displayed alike by Teuton. Briton. Gaul Russ.
Latin and Serb
For years selfconstitued authorities have been clam
orng that the white race was degenerating. decadent
lacking in yirility in fibre Here in America we have
been to accept that verdict as applicable to the
older peoples Of Europe while have hattered our
selves that we were superior race untouched by this
mythical deeadence which had tainted or permeaed the
older nations Can We longer hold any such views?
In great French play the dying hero thus addresses
Death What that you say That is useless to fight
It is much nobler to fight when you know you cannot
win"
Is there man or woman with red blood whose eyes
did not gsten, whose heart did not beat faster whose
pulses did not throb when he or she read of the fight
the Belgans made the fight they knew they could not
win? Is there one Of us who does thrill at the recta
ton Of the marvellous eats the Germans at the death

sTANpARpIZING DANCES

The National Society of Professors of Dancing has de-
cided to standardze the dances taught this season The
professors have walked up to something the public has
known for long time-hat they have been OVERRIDING
the new dance" business and killing the goose that laid
the golden eggs.
For year or two while the terpschorean mania was
at its height it seemed that some new dancing eyou.
ton was being turned every two weeks The --latest
step was the thing and in frenzed effort to be upo
date the faddist hocked the dancing masters in such
hrongs that The instructors were soon rolling in wealth
Inspired by their sudden prosperity they played on the
popular craze and invented dance after dance ceyerly
advertising their and foong the public to TOP Of
its bent.
But the public always to its senses sooner or
later The dancers couldn't 30 on forever paying their
good money to learn the dance" only to have to
turn in and higher price for learning stl later
one the next month. Besides the enormous production
Of new and varied steps to make dancing parties
scenes Of confusion and annoyance instead Of simple
pleasure 1t found after while that all the public
really cared for in communities were the waltz and
two or three Other dances. Of which the onesep and
fox trot were probably the most popular
With the restriction of the steps to about half dozen
thoroughly standardized the public will be saved from
complete revolt and dancing will once more be a simple
sane and wholesome recreation.

FORD VS.. CARNEGIE

Henry Ford the automobile man, has added 50 OOo 600
to his original fund of S1OOOOOO making war chest
for purposes equal to that established by Andrew
Carnegie
The inevitable comparison brings out contrast in
the present attitudes of the two men With the same
sincere desire to peace world their methods
are different Mr. Carnegie has labored and spent
only in behalf Of general international campaign Of
education. He has made serious efforts to mould
the military diplomatic policy of our government At
present he is said favor defensive preparedness Mr.
Fords activity intended bring special pressure
to bear on the American people at the present time to
dissuade them from sanctonins policy of more effective
armament
Nobody, of course questions Mr. Fords motives
Many however, may question the wisdom of his plan.
Just now the majority our people seem agreed that
the army and navy must be strengthened and broad
and definite program Of national adopted 1t is
felt that safety lies in this direction and that our people
and government can be trusted to use adequate war
establishments purely for defensive purposes instead of
letting military preparation betray us into war
Mr. Fords campaign is likely to prove unpopular if it
is directed to the purpose preventing any steps toward
Preparedness in the next congress- If he merely con
fines his efforts however fighting the frenzed jngoes
who want an army and navy Of vast proportions and
enormous cost he viii perform useful service by help
