Plan to Build Fine New Hotel in
Greensboro

The latest plan for building new
hotel in Greensboro, concerning
which there has been good deal of
talk for the past few years. involves
the organization of a company TO
erect a modern structure on the
site of the Guilford hotel. Messers.
B. II. Merrimon, owner of the Gull
ford hotel property. and A. II. Gal
loway and w. G. Tennille, Iessees of
the hotel, have tentatively agreed
to furnish $4,000 toward erecting
a building to cost $255, 900, the plan
being to have citizens of Greensboro
subscribe to $4,000 in stock in the
company and to issue 100000 in
bonds secured by first mortgage
on the property. Mr.. Merrlmon
values the real estate at 100000,
which would make the total worth
of the property S455. 600.
Of the $225,OOO needed for the
building, Mr.. Merrimon is to furnish
$4,000. Messers. Galloway and
Teunille $4,000 and stockholders
$4,000. 1t is understood that the
additional 100000 needed can be
borrowed on easy terms.
Mr.. MerrimOn proposes to lease
his real estate to the hotel company
for period of SO years for yearly
rental of $14,40O, which is little
more than 7 per cent on the estimat-
ed value of the ground.
If the plans mature, it is said the
GuiIford hotel building will be torn
down during the summer and the
new hotel erected as quickly as pos
Sible.

LEAVING HOME.

We never cared to wander,
but we did one time vamOose.
It was years ago, when we were

farewell to pals, from home ties
we broke loose; we were headed
for the city and job. Our garb
was not the latest, we were sad
ly out of date, in our cotton
hand-me-dOWns we were

tacky lid we had within our pate
all the goods that we would
need to put us right. We took
the G. M. Flyer and obeyed the
city call, and we soon were. glim-
ming incandescent lights; but
found for pumpkin ways and
togs the city would not fall, and
in short we're jolted from our
dizzy heights. Our kick of shin
ing shekels made it's getaway
with ease; disappointed, hun
CRY, broke, we longed for home.

when we, upon our knees, took
the pass and said we never

Why Glass Doesn't Stop liaht.

Why doesn't the closed window shut
out light just as much as it shuts out
sound? Both light and sound travel
through the air and their waves come
in contact with the glass. The light.
after it has gone through the window.
seems just as strong or stronger. while
the sound seems ever so much weaker
Why is it? many of us have wondered.
The reason is that light is not a
wave of air. while sound is. Light Is
a wave in the ether which Is in the
glass as well as in the air. so that light
in passing through glass still has its
natural path of ether.
But when sound waves strike the
window glass they must put the glass
into vibration, and the glass in turn
must make the air inside vibrate All
this lessons the strength of the sound
waves and they reach our ears capable
of producing a less startling effec,
than the light waves which reach our
eyes.

HE CLOSED THE DOOR.

John was an iceman. For years he
had driven his wagon along the city
boulevards and through the hack al
leys. He was a strong. husky fellow.
popular with the boss and with his GUS
toners. He was accommodating, and
his ringing Good morning" was al
ways welcome. He was ambitious, but
didn't know it, was satisfied because
over his horizon little had arisen save
a horse and an ice cart.
Among his customers was multi
millionaire, the president of a bank
and the owner of the largest factory
in the city. The basement door was
located under his library. Every morn
ing this man of business sat before
the open window, or before the glow
ing CRATE. and read his morning paper.
Old as he was, busy as he always had
been. his eye had not lost its power of
penetration or his ear its acuteness.
He saw and he heard more than most
men.
The grocery boys. the market men.
and others delivered their goods below
his window, and every one, save the
iceman. slammed the door when he
went out; but John always closed it
softly.
One day, as John was leaving, the
millionaire poked his head out of the
window and exclaimed: Say. you
man, why don't you slam the doors
like the other fellows?"
John was confused for a moment.
then he pulled himself together and
replied:
What's the use of being nuisance
when you don't have to be?"
Got moment to spare?" asked the
millionaire.
Sure" replied John.

with hat in hand, stood at the library

The iceman held the cigar in his
fingers, not daring to light it.

Utilizing All the Ground.

This country is so new and so given
to thinking of farms as huge areas
for cultivation that the idea of utiliz-
ing every bit of land as Europeans
do, makes little headway here. Inten-
sive cultivation Is practiced. but on
the outskirts of eastern cities. where
some farmers are making good liv-
ings by intensive cultivation of small
tracts of land there are other tracts
Just as good lying idle which at least
could be made to yield vegetable sup
plies for several families and at the
same time pay a small rental IL cul-
tlvated by a few workmen in their
spare time. School children's gardens
on vacant lots in various sections of
this city show the possibilities of such
ventures The old American idea that
every family with access to a bit of
land should have it's own garden was
an excellent one. II would be good to
have 1t revived.-New York Tribune.

Basque Language.

The Basque language is like no 9TH

world, though it has many features in
common with the languages of the
North American Indians. OF it Baron
Alexander Won Humboldt once wrote:
The words are spelled Napoleon and
pronounced Nebuchadnezzar. The
Basques, so far as history treats OF
them, have always been a quiet. pas

America they are known as good herd

HEALTH AND SALARY,

Good health is not always a gift Of
nature. Like other commodities. 1t
may be acquired or earned.
Seventy-five per cent of our ailments
are self-made or self-induced.
Nature intended to start us in health
and to keep US well. and most of US
can have the health we want if we
will. unless we are prenatally handi-
capped.
Nature does her part. is forever CIV
ing US health. and attempting to dispel
disorder. But nature alone can no
more guarantee good health than can
glassware insure itself against break
age.
Business has not time or inclination
for sympathy. 1t is its province to
make money. and 1t cannot, under pres
ent conditions, tolerate either indif-
ference. inefficiency. incapacity, or Ill
health. 1t demands the best there is
In us II we would succeed.
II one cannot meet business require
ments in the main, it will have nothing
to do with him, and will relegate him
to the scrap heap. IT is just as much
your duty to keep in good health. IL
you can. as 1t Is to be on time at the
office in the morning and to work faith
fully during the business day.
Your employer has a right to de-
mand health Of you. as well as faith
fulness- While he may sympathize
with you IL you are suffering from
some ailment for which you may or
may not be responsible. he cannot de-
pend upon you, or promote you, or
give you full opportunity unless your
physical condition is up to normal or
strong enough to permit you to do your
duty with a fair degree of efficiency.
Statistics show that poor health is
second only to dissipation and extrava-
gance as the cause of commercial dis
aster.
The physically weak man who takes
care of himself is often better able to
work than ia one of robust health who
Is dissipated. extravagant. Indifferent
and careless.
You cannot maze a normal success
of business unless you are normal both
physically and mentally; your brain
cannot do its full work unless 1t is
supported by a healthy body. and your
body cannot be in good condition un-
less 1t is given as good care as that
bestowed upon the heartless engine or
the nerveless loom.
Late hours, overeating, lack of exer-
else. and every form of mild or other
dissipation predisposes one to physical
downfall, resulting in mental inca
pacity and in the inability to accom-
plish.
To abuse your body is robbing your
self and your employer as much as
you would be doing if you deliberately
emptied his cash drawer.
Your body has been given you as a
sacred heritage. h has been placed in
your care and you will be held re-
sponsible for 1t.
Health stands for comfort, pleasure,
peace of mind, and prosperity.
II you are strong, keep yourself
strong; IL you are weak. take all the
more care Of yourself. Look upon
your body as not a mere physical as
set, but as an investment, to be hus-
banded and to be protected more than
you would the family jewels or the
savings of your lifetime, You can lose
money and regain 1t. II you lose your
health. you may not be able to find 1t.
