DOMESTIC PEBBLES TO

THE European war has threateheu

nebbles. upon which, during recent
.vears cement manufacture and gold
ore milling have been dependent IN
large measure. The geological sur
.yav in bulletin 599, "Our Mineral Re
serves" recently suggested some
sources Of domestic flint and other
nebbles that are available as substi'
utes for foreign flints. Since the Is
sue of that bulletin other sources ana
other substitutes have attracted at
tention. Besides the flint grayels oil
the Gulf states and the beach grayels
of New England which are mentioned
in bulletin 599, there are also ayaila
bic suitable gravel deposits on parts
of the shores of Lake Superior ana the
Pacific coast and, particularly in the
western states, stream grayels con
tanning tough and resistant pebbles OF
granitic. rhyolitic, and basaltic rock
Furthermore, mill tests have demon
strated the efficiency of artificial peb
bles. made by rounding quarried
blocks Of rhyolite in a tumbler
Roughly cubical or angular talu'
blocks of basalt, taken as they are
found, also become well rounded dur
ing uses. 1t has also been suggested

Why He Was Proud.

A teacher in the Mckinley school
building in Muncie last spring offer
ed a prize to the pupil who would
kill the most flies. The little boys
and girls who we're under this teach
er's special charge at once became
the envy of all the other pupils whose
teachers were not in the prize-giving
business. One day Donald, who is
eight and under the tutelage of the
prize teacher, said in a discourag-
ed tone to a playmate, Charlie, who
is in another room: Il just know
I'll never win that prize. I cant find
any flies over at our house
Then you'd just better come over
t. our house." said Charlie boastfully
we've got millions of 'em."

CORVALLIS had about two thousand
men engaged in the fight. Among
the commanding officers were Major
Gen. Leslie, Brig. Gen. O'Hara, Lieut..
Col. James Webster, Lieut.. Col. Rob-
ert Stuart, Lieut.. Col. Norton and
Col. Tarleton. AS result Of the bat
tie 92 British were killed and Alb
were wounded. 1t is probable that
Greene lost about 500 besides a num-
Der of militia not known. The bat
tie of Guilford Court House was the
only pitched battle of any magnitude
fought between the American and
British forces in North Carolina.
The fatal wound to royal author
ity. from which it fingered. and lin
gering died on the 10Th day of Oc-
tober. 1851, was given at Guilford
Court House on this 18th day OF
March. 1881. One of the brigades
of North Carolina militia at Guilford
was under command of Brig. Gen.
John Butler. of Orange county. one
of the old Regulators. who had ad-
hered to his ideas of resistance to
tyranny from Alamance in May,
Ill. to that time. He had been
in arms from the beginning of the
war, and had recently been at Gates's
defeat and escaped capture. He is
represented as man Of great cour-
age and much force Of character. He
was very popular with his neighbors.
and retained their respect by his hon
est and straightforward dealings with
them. There was no time during the
Revolutionary war when the name OF
Gen. Butler was not conspicuous in
North Carolina as a patriot and SOL
dier. He never laid down his arms
until independence was declared and
won. The militia who served un-
der him at Guilford Court House
were from Orange, Granville and
Guilford counties.
