OF Canning.

Development OF Canning.
Reports to Mrs. Jane s. MeKimmon,
head OF the Home Demonstration work
in the state, and the State Food Con-
servation Commission indicate that in
many sections of the state there has
been spontaneous development OF
community canning. The movement
is especially we'll organized at VIII
mington, in Castor county, at Ashe-
Vile and Raleigh.
The instance at Wilmington proba-
bly, shows best the possibilities Of this
movement. In that city canning clubs
have been organized among church 90
c1eties and high school girls for tina
purpose of saving the surplus OF per-
ishable vegetables and FRUITS from the
gardens of the city and truck farms
of New Hanover county Members OF
the boy scouts and other boys of work
ing age have been modified to assist
in the garden work and the harvesting
of the vegetables on the farms, which,
in many instances, are purchased In
the field and harvested by the boys
and taken by them to the various can
ming clubs in the city. These canning
clubs are taking contracts from house
wives of the city to fill their empty
jars with vegetables and fruits. They
are also using thousands of cans which
will be sold on the general market
later
The movement as carried out in
Wilmington serves several purposes;
thousands of dollars worth of vege-
tables and fruits which would other
wise be lost to the consumer is being
saved; the women of the churches and
the high school girls are rendering an
invaluable patriotic service and Incl
IDENTIFY are earning money for religious
and charitable causes; and thousands
of fruit jars which would have remain
ed on pantry shelves are being util-
lied in the saving of food stuffs the
volume of which will have some effect
in easdng UP the general food sjtla-
ton.
In some places community canning
outfits have been established for the
benefit of housewives who desire to
can their surplus vegetables but have
not the facilities at home for SO do
ing. Both plans serve a very useful
purpose, and the movement will no
doubt spread rapidly until the house
wives of practically every city and
town in the state will be able either
to put up their own surplus fruits and
reasonable cost by some canning club.

Orders to Arrest sIackers.

Governor T. w. Beckett ordered
sheriffs of the various counties Of the
state to arrest every person whose
duty it was to register under the selec-
tive draft plan and who failed to do it.
Men thus arrested will be released up
on their own recognizance, If they
promptly register.
Governors Order.
The War Department orders the ar.
rest Of every man whose duty it was
to register and failed to do it. Please
make a searching investigation in
every precinct in your county, and il
single man failed to register accord
ing to law, report the same to the
nearest United States Attorney or
Marshal, and the delinquent will be ar
rested at once. North Carolina regis
tered more men than the government
estimated it would, according to our
population. This fine fact makes it all
the more important to require all de-
linquents to be registered. When
ninety-nine men voluntarily do their
duty, it is the essence of justice to
the ninety-nine to compel the hun
dredth man to do his. The quota from
North Carolina will be based on the
original estimate of the government,
and not on our actual registration.
Therefore every additional man regis.
tered reduces the proportion OF the
whole that will be first selected for
service.

Interested in FORMING Market.


Considerable interest is being mani
tested throughout the state in the
movement started by the North Caro-
lima Food Conservation Commission,
looking toward the establishment Of
adequate and fair markets for staple
food and feed products, according to
reports reaching the office Of the COM
mission.
Many of the leading business men of
the state, in addition to the farmers
themselves, are beginning to realize
that fair markets are a necessary ba.
sis for any prosperity that is built
upon the production Of crops other
than cotton and tobacco. In number
of cities the chambers of commerce
Or boards of trade have already begun
working upon this problems of mar
kets, while in other places business
men are interesting themselves 1ndi-
vidually
mo line Of business offers better OPP
portunjties for good profits today, in
my opinion, than does the handling of
corn, small grain and other farm pro-
Ducts" declared John Paul Lucas.
executive secretary of the North Caro-
lima Food Conservation Commission.
"Our business men must realize, how
ever, that fair prices are the first es-
sential Of such markets as are need
ed, and that any market which bids
for permanent success must offer fair
prices. Suitable warehouses and
equipment for handling and storing
products are other essentials"

WARNING TO ALIENS. Enemies Must Live Up to the Terms of Their Special Permits.

It has been estimated that there are probably 100 alien enemies in this city to whom permits have been issued by the United States district marshal giving them the privilege to move about in certain restricted dis tricts. In order to save some of the more thoughtless ones from being prosecuted for violation of the terms of their permits 1t is well to have each alien note carefully just what privileges have been granted him and to abide by them. On Saturday night a man in Hartford was arrested on Main street. His permit showed that he had the privilege of going only from his place of residence and the factory where he is employed. It is understood that department of justice men are here taking note of the man. ner in which alien enemies are cu.l- ducting them selves.
 If such an alien moves his place of residence or changes his occupatioa T he should at once notify Marshal Middleborooks if he would keep out of trouble.

 Don't Worry, Woodcock's Advice.
 Rt Rev. Charles E. Woodcock, Episcopal bishop of Kentucky, who Is on his way here to visit his sister, Mrs. Marshall P. Ryder of Maple street, gave a most interesting sermon last evening in the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York. The address attra cted considerable atten- ton in New York and was given con- siderable space in the metropolitan newspapers this morning.
 Bishop Woodcock gave as his opinion that it is no more sinful to drink yourself into the gutter than to worry yourself into the grave. People are getting life badly mixed up." he declared. They are short ening their lives by ten years by senseless worrying Worry weakens the heart and hardens the arteries People are carried away by the mis- taken idea that one cannot live with out worrying.
 Worry is an evil. It destroys sinful as drinking or gamb bling It is a guilty, sinful. cowardly thing It is always a personal weakness" Bishop Woodcock plans to spend several days here before returning to

Men between the ages of 21 and 31 An Berlin must appear before the To- ca, exemption board Saturday of this week at Plainville town hall for ex- animation for the first draft army.
 This is the gist of a statement made this morning by Benjamin l. Miller of Avon, member of the local exemp- tion board.
 However, this does not necessitate that all men will have to appear; 1000 men from the entire district will be examined on three different days. The quota is 400 men. Men will have to appear in the order in which they were drawn. If the re- ouired allotment of physically fit men cannot be obtained from the first 1000 another group will be called and so on until the quota is filled.
 No claims for exemption will be accepted at this time and only a physical examination will be given.
 Each man will have seven days from the time he received notice to appear for examinations to file his claim for exemption and proof for exemption must be filed five days aft CT he has filed his claim.
 As the result of accident which happened several weeks ago in which his hand was badly crushed, Joseph Kingo was operated on this morning at the New Britain General hospital and the hand amputated. According to Dr. Dunn, who performed the operation. Kngo is doing well and is suffering no ill effects from the sur gical treatment.
 Kingos hand was crushed some time ago at the Berlin Construction company when 8 five-ton I-bean from a passing train fell on it. H. was taken to the New Britain hos pital where it was at first thought that amputation was unnecessary and that the hand could be saved. The injury grew worse instead of better and amputation was at last neces. sary. Kingo is one Of the oldest anc best known residents of Italian ex traction in the town and has a wife ant children.

Uncle Harry Tells Of Famous Railroad Tunnels

chuckled with mirth and enjoyment
as he helped Jimmy and Joe lay the
track for the electric railway Father
had given them for Christmas. At
last it was completed Jimmy was
attaching the last wire to the little
transformer with which they used the
electric light current, when Uncle
Harry cried, "Wait a minute" and
disappeared into the library. In a
moment he reappeared in the doorway
with his arms full OF books
This train must run through a
tunnel" said he, and sure enough in
five minutes the train did run through
a tunnel made of encyclopedias and
dictionaries and other big books.
For half an hour the fun lasted.
Then said Uncle Harry:

Use Cocoanut Oil
for Washing Hair

II you want TO keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash IL with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsiiied
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and on
tirely greaseless) r. much better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for shampoo
ing, as this can't possibly injure the
hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance OF
rich, creamy lather. and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle OF dust dirt. dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quick
ly and evenly, and It leaves il fine
and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. II is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months.

DELMAR AND TAXES

citizens on the Delaware side OF town

IN order that the Council NAV raise
more taxes to defray the expenses of
the town. Now we were not at ali
surprised to learn Of this disapprovaI
There never was many improvements
made in Delmar but what some
one wanted to knock It; and at
the same time they will persecute
the town officials because the streets
are In such a miserable condition.
Now there is one thing certain, If we
are 10 have better streets and a better
town, we may expect to help them.
the town officials are not going to mt
up the money for that purpose. As
the charter stands today. or as we
understand it. they are not allowed
to raise only a certain amount of
taxes, no matter how many peonle
may move in town or what improve
ments are made. In other words. If
they have 200 taxpayers now. and
there should move into their midst
200 more, they would be compelled to
reduce the tax rate so per cent. They
have not the right to raise any more
