that NJ. Bustanoby will have to put

MOVING GRAVEYARD
FOR BIG RESERVOIR.

The moving of a graveyard is ne
cessitated by the building of the big
dam at Badin as the body of water
created by the dam will cover 10000
acres of land. This old graveyard
would be covered by deep water so
those interested in the burying ground
have decided to move the sacred dust
of their dead to other places.
Among those buried in this old
graveyard are five members of the
West Harris family, ancestors of the
Burners and Stewards Of Rowan
county. The process of exhuming
these bodies begun and they are be-
ing brought to Salisbury to be interref:
in the old English cemetery. The
oldest of these graves is taht of West
Harris who was born in IT'S and
died in 1875.

REDUCING THE GLARE FROM
AUTOMOBILE HEADLIGHTS

There is a rule of courtesy among
the better class of autOmobiliStS which
teaches, do as you would be done by"
and it applies with special emphasis
to the use Of glaring headlights at
night. Encouraged by this spirit and
by the passing of city ordinances
against the use of glaring headlights
in city limits, than a score of
anti-glare appliances have been put
on the supply market within the last
few months. They sell for almost any
amount. from a few cents up to six or
eight dollars. Notwithstanding the
fact that many of these appliances are
open to objection, however, thousands
of them have been sold, and if the
buyer but knew it he might have used
the adjustment On the lamps to bring
about a most satisfactory and efficient
solution of the difficulty without the
expense. @iA'
Three operations are necessary in
order to obtain the greatest amount
of effective illumination and keep most
of the glare out of the eyes of passing
automobilists. The are:
% Tilt the headlights slightly
downward so that when the car is
standing on the level the center of the
beam strikes the roadway anywhere
from rs to 100 feet ahead. 1t has been
suggested that car manufacturers can
be of great help in the campaign for
ducing glare by making this adjust
ment when the car is assembled.
(2) Frost or lacquer the lamp
bulbs FROM the tip back to within
about ~five-eights of an inch Of the
base.
90 Carefully adjust the lamp to
make the beam of light as narrow as
possible.
Carrying out these suggestions will
result in a light CT the greatest inten-
sity concentrated OF the roadway at
the point where the driver needs the
most light. As the beam Of light is
projected. downward the intense rays
will not be high enough to annoy or
blind the eyes Of passing pedestrians
OF chauffeurs. No device vet invented
San prevent the beam Of liglt from
rising when the al comes ove the
brow of a hill. Under such>conditions
each driver should realize the annoy
ance his lamp may cause and dim
them.

FAIRFAX HARRISON ON
THE ADAMSON LAW.

Announcing that the Southern Rail-
way system lines are asking the courts
to interpret the Adamson law pending
an attempt to enforce it's provisions
Mr.. Fairfax Harrison said:
""There is such an irrecOncilable DIFF
ference between the Interpretation OF
the law upon which the lawyers agree
and what the men want that it is ap-
parent that a judicial Interpretation
and Qualification Of the law is neces-
sary in the interest of all concerned.
Quite frankly we are now unable to
apply the law because we do not know
what it means. We know what the
men want, but the lawyers say the
law does not give them that, but gives
them something else which every rail
road manager knows they do not
want. The men are naturally disap
pointed that the question is not set
tied, and so are the managers, but we
must-all have patience and good tenn
per and try to avoid passion while VIC

agreement: T~ "a
First.The American troops now in
chihuahua, commanded by General
John J. Pershing, shall be withdrawn
within forty days from the signing of
the protocol by the respective govern

i the conditions in that part of Mexico

Second. The Mexican army shall

Third. 1t shall be left to the COM

such arrangements for cooperation in
operations against bandits whenever
it is possible.
"The right of the American govern
ment to send troops across the border
in pursuit of bandits was not ~incorpor-
ated in the protocol. but was made the
subjects of a supplemental memoran-
DUN. The Mexicans had commended
earnestly against signing any agree

agreement of the Americans finally to
content themselves with stating the
attitude of the United States in a sep

1t was conceded in Washington the
later part of last week by Republican
leaders that the Democrats will have
control in the next house by a narrow
margin. and that they will be able to
organize with the assistance of the
Progressives and Prohibition and So
ctalists members. This was made
known by Parker A. Anderson, staff
correspondent Of the Greensboro

AS already stated in this c%orrespon-
dence. many of the Republicans from
the western states which went for
Wilson this fall will refuse to support
Jim Mann of Illinois, for speaker or
any other Republican who will not
agree to change the rules from the old
Cannon regime When the speaker of
the house had more power, some poo
pie say. than the President of the
United States.
"The Republicans it is said, know
they cannot coerce these western
statesmen into voting for Mann, and
rather than make a fight and lose, or
to win and adopt Democratic rules,
they had rather wait at least another
four years before they attempt 10
take over control of the lower branch
of Congress"
Among the congratulatory te1e-
grams received by President Wilson
upon his reelection was n from F.

MARRIAGE MIXUP LANDS HEIRS
IN COURT.

A case is being prepared for trial at
the coming March term of court at
Fairmont that possesses unusual features,
and involves the payment of a $1,000
policy carried during his life time by
August Larson. Helen Larson is the
surviving wife of August Larson and Ida
Larson is the surviving wife of Andrew
Larson.
August and Andrew were brothers and
when August joined the Woodmen in
May, 1898, he named his brother, An
drew, the beneficiary. Both died and
as the policy named Andrew Larson as
the beneficiary his heirs at law are en-
titled to the money.
The widow of August Larson, how
ever, holds the policy in her possession
and refuses to surrender it to Andrew
Larson's heirs, except on the payment
OF large sum of money. The action is
being brought to compel the surrender
of the certificate, or to prove the facts
necessary to safeguard the Woodmen in
paying the claim to the rightful bene-
ficiaries.
