CALL OF THE SEA.

Oh, long for a sight of the sea once
more,
Where the white-winged sailboats
ride,
And the lap of the waves on the sand
white shore
The kiss of the deathless tide
And 1 yearn for glimpse of the twi-
light scene,
When the restless waves are still,
And the moonlight falls like silver
sheen,
On the slope of cleaning hill.
When the thoughts that come mid the
rush of things,
Seem little, inane and low,
AS the soul mounts up on dreamer's
wings,
Where only a soul can go;
And Care, like a ship on the ocean
there,
In the calm of night so b1est,
Has anchored safe from the rock, De-
spair,
In the Harbor of Peace and Rest.
And while I gaze at the gentle swell,
That mirrors the stars above,
hear Voice say, "All is well"
And the voice is that of Love;
And so long for sight of the sea,
A glimpse of ships white wings,
And the thoughts and dreams that al
borne to me,
On the song that the ocean sings.

GOLDsBOR0 VS.. RALEIGH
Editor Argus:

Editor Argus:
With the defeat of the Wilmin gton
Highs by the Raleigh Highs in Ra-
leigh Saturday, the Eastern claim to
the cham pionship title now apparently
rests between Goldsboro and Raleigh.
The local Highs off to great start at
the first of the season triumphed over
the Raleigh Highs here by a to 0
count. Affairs rested well for some
time with Goldsboro defeating Kins-
ton and New Bern and Raleigh, gain
ing decisions over Warrenton and
High Point. Then after the locals had
won over the New Bern Highs in that
city by a 12 to score, the locals as
well as Raleigh were surprised when
it was learned that Wilmington ran a
total III points to New Bern's points
the latter a gift, thus bringing into
Light that strong team which on meet
ing the Raleigh boys Saturday met an
unexT ected defeat and although los
said that they were superior in every
respect to the winning Raleigh team.
Their undeserved defeat came as re-
suit of penalties which the capital
advancing Wilmington team. In the
opinion of the majority of judges pres
ent Saturday at Raleigh the stronger
team was unfairly treated, penalties,
capital city sympathy, etc., finally
proved enough for q Raleigh victory.
Out of local High School sympathy for
the Wilmington boys comes feeling
from the local Highs that they will at
least have another chance at the proud
Capital city team before the Chapel
Hill authorities can allow Raleigh to
enter against Charlotte, the Western
winner, at the Hill.
It must be remembered that the To-
Gals are the only team that has scored
a victory over Raleigh this year, no
other team having even penetrated
their goal. So it remains now for
Goldsboro to meet Raleigh for a final
| decision before the Eastern winner
goes to Chapel Hill to meet Char
| Iotte.
| After careful survey of the results
Of State High School battles Colds
boro, outside of Charlotte, is the only
undefeated team which survives the
present football season Just where
our boys must meet Raleigh in the
final game is yet undecided but indi-
cations seem to point to the Capital
City, which if that is the decision ot
/ the University authorities will be
quite unpopular to the Goldsboro boys
as a meeting between the two claim
ants on the Hill would only be in JUS
tice to our Highs and it is generally
conceded that if the latter place is the
verdict it is probable that the locals
will share in "College' publicity with
the Raleigh boys.
Never before has Goldsboro been sc
much in the limelight and local en-.
thusiasts should follow the locals OF
to either place to cheer the boys to the
State championship.

COUNTY GEOGRAPHY

Chapel Hill, N. c., Nov. 16.-Exten-
sion Series Bulletin No. II on "The
Teaching of County Geography" is now
ready for distribution. This bulletin
was gotten up for the University Bu-
reau of Extension by Professor M. G..
S. Noble, Dean of the School of Edu-
cation. AS Professor Noble says in
the introduction, "the purpose fthis
Bulletin is to give methods and sug-
gestions to those teachers who wish
to teach their pupils the geography CT
their county" In this study Orange
county is used as a model. First an
outline of topics is presented. and then
follows a brief presentation of the
geography of Orange county based on
this outline. Professor Noble is OF
the opinion that careful reading of
the outline and of the presentation OF
Orange county geography will suggest
to teachers in other counties how they
may follow the same outline in teach
ing the geography and history of their
own county.
The general outline for this study
falls under FIVE heads: Physical-Po-
Iitical; Historical-Political; Indus
tries; Towns; History and Education.
Each of these heads is then taken up
in detail.
Realizing that bare outline OF
county geography and history would
be insufficient, Professor Noble follows
this up with a resume OF Orange
county geography and history. For
instance, among the times taken up
under the Historica1-Politica1 head
ing, he shows-for whom the county
was named and by whom settled, pop
ulation, occupation, crops, wealth Of
county, road system, manufactures,
towns and schools.
The last five pages of the bulletin
are given over to "suggestfve ques-
ttons for the teaching Of county geo
graphy and history, taking Orange
Noble points out, the purpose of these
questions, and of the outline in gen
eTal, is to aid the pupil in building up
his own county geography and history
by writing at least one sentence un-
der each topic of the outline.
One of the most striking features
of the syllabus is the collection of il
lustrations. Seventeen cuts were used
in the compilation of this little forty
page bulletin. One of the pictures
shows the Orange county court house
at Hillsboro, and the clock in the tow
er which was presented to the town
by King George III in 1869 and has
been reliable timepiece ever since
The most striking illustration is a
| double page map of Orange county
drawn by Professor Noble. 1t is prob
| ably the only map of it's kind in exis-
ence. The heavy border lines of the
map show the boundaries of Orange
county as defined in 1852 and 1853;
| the dotted lines in the center of the
map show Orange county of today, af-
ter ten counties have been formed ir
whole or in part from the county az
first formed. The bulletin contains
numerous other cuts and topics of in
terest, too numerous, in fact, for {
more detailed account of them here
A copy of the bulletin will be sent Il
every school in North Carolina. Othe1
copies can be obtained by writing tx

Bureau of Extension.

PUGET SOUND LINE
TO FRANCE PROPOSED
Seattle Business Men Want Ships For
Trade With South
America.

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA direct
steamship line between Puget Sound
and France is proposed by a French
consular representative on the Pa
cific coast He is holding frequent
conferences with business men whom
he has interested in the project
through the branch office of the bu-
reau OF foreign and domestic COM
MERGE. department Of commerce, in
Seattle. In making his canvass Of the
territory he has been afforded special
facilities by the bureau and his con-
clusion is that with proper shipping
facilities, there would be an excellent
market in France for the lumber and
tim Der products OF the Pacific north
west.
Reports received by the bureau
from Seattle indicate that there are
interest and enthusiasm throughout
that district in favor of great ship
ping boom. Men who are acting for
have been in consultation with the
bureaus branch Office. several going
from Portland to Seattle for the pur-
pose. and business men have been
holding meetings with the object OF
advancing the interests OF the port.
Extensive port improvements have
already been made. and there is exist
ing from I0al ulSlIlCI 10 the
Orient. The city has been making an
insistent demand. however, for more
ships, and the west coast of South
America and Central America re-
ceived special attention. Portland
companies have informed the bureau
that line covering that route could
be maintained by handling lumber
chiefly. and also carry Pacific coast
products generally. A personal visit
has been made by Mr.. John Barrett,
director of the Pan-Am erican union,
to encourage these efforts.
Seattle's interest in shipping during
the present fall has already resulted
in two publications. Terminal Facili-
ties Of the North Pacific Ports" and
Pacific Exporters" while a periodical
devoted TO the same general subject
is about to be issued.
Numerous letters have been received
from business men by the bureau of
foreign and domestic commerce, COM
mending the efforts made through its
branch office to develop the foreign
commerce Of this Pacific coast region.
