the salaries of teachers of trade, home economics and industrial sub jects there is hereby appropriated for the use of the states, certain sums of money, which are to be divided among states in the same manner and proportion as the money appropriated in the previous sec tions for agricultural education"
 So, also, under this section, the territory of Alaska would receive not less than S5.O0O for the pur- poses stated until 1923 and after that year the amount would be doubled. Of this appropriation, not more than 20 per cent could be used exclusively for the home econ- omics course.
 Preparing Teachers.
 In section four of this act, it IS provided: That for the purpose of cooperating with the states in pre- pairing teachers, that they may be able to give instruction in the sub- jects mentioned in the first three sections," certain sums are appro- priated, to be divided among the states as in sections two and three.
 Thus, under this section also, Alaska would receive $5,00O an- nually until 1923, and not less than $10,000 year thereafter.
 Other Features.
 The rest of the act is devoted to prescribing the manner in which the money must be spent in the states, and under whose direction. In Alaska the money would be spent under the direction of the Terri torial Board of Education, which would be required to submit it's plans to the Federal Board for ap- proval.
 While the money for the general i education of young men and women in the territory in agriculture, trade, nome economics and industrial sub- Iects could be used in all parts of Alaska, the appropriation for the of teachers would very likely, have to go to one institution. If the Board of Education saw fit, he money might be used in support ng chairs in the Territorial Agri- ultural College and School of Mines 'r in any other institution upon which the board might decide.
 Big Help to Alaska.
 That the adoption of the resolu- ion will mean a great deal to Alaska, where every dollar obtain ble is needed badly to educate the yer increasing number of children, 5 plainly evident, and the funds de- ived from this source will meet a eed, the delegate points out, that 7ould not, in all likelihood, be met

RICE THROWING AT WEDDINGS

Don't throw rice-save food and help win the war" This notice has appeared in one of New York's leading hotels where weddings are frequent.
 The wedding feast has long been drowned upon by food conserva- tionists. The amount of sugar re- quired for frosting has made the conventional wedding cake unpat- riotic.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY


 tongues or tweddling thumbs. We are at war in earnest, witnes: lengthening casualty lists. From now on, every one of us must be prepared to bear greater responsi bilities than ever before.
 It is impossible to conduct our lives as we did previous to the war We must overhaul our whole system of living and preface everything We do with the question, "1s this help ing to win the war;"
 Not until we have the firm know ledge that everything, not alone in our business affairs, but also in the home, is helping, not hindering our victory, can we hope to crush Germany, which for years has gov erned both the public and private lives of her people with but one ob- ject in view; that of some day be- ing strong enough to put every nation under foot that could dispute her supremacy.
 Let the woman who hestitates to put her cooking on a wheatless basis remember that it is her duty to go without any wheat from now until the next harvest.
 "But," some housewife may say, 'the official ration of wheat is a pound and half per person per week. Why should I go without wheat when this ration is allowed by the Food Administration?
 This is legitimate question, but one easily answered. After care ful survey of the nation'e wheat supply the Food Administration has estimated that we can meet the tre- mendous demands made on us if everyone in the country cuts his wheat ration to pound and half per week.
 But there will be some who can not possibly do this, much as they would like to do it Those people are the ones who keep the wheels of the nations industry moving. 1 Many of these are working extra hours to keep the nation apace of { the enormously increasing demands of war. They have little time to cook at home and must therefore buy most of their food, a large part of which is bread.
 To be sure, they will buy only 1 Victory bread, but this at best must contain over fifty per cent wheat in order to make it durable enough , for distribution through bakeries. Hence, these people must in most cases exceed the weekly ration of one and one-half pounds of wheat.
 It remains for those housewives who do have time at home to do their cooking and go without wheat altogether in order to make the average wheat consumption one and one-half pounds per capita.
 Delay and unwillingness to should CT a responsibility that is rightfully yours means that these days of horror and carnage will be pro- longed. <, If you believe that "F ood Will ; Win the War;, you have no alter native.

SORRY TEAM WORK.
News and Observer.

News and Observer.
In their reply to President Wilson's
appeal to voters, the Republican Sena
torial and Congressional committees
said:
"There are some domestic questions
on which we should undoubtedly diff
fer from the course pursued by the
administration. We should not, for
example, fix the price Of the farmers s
wheat and leave the planters cotton
untouched"
If this means anything, it means
that should the Republicans succeed
in electing a majority of the House
and Senate they will proceed at once
to pass bill fixing the price of cot
ton.
But the amusing thing is that in
the face of the foregoing declaration
by the national G. o. P. machine, the
Republican leaders in North Carolina
are telling our farmers that President
Wilson is determined to fix the price
Of cotton, that he is merely waiting
until after the election to do it, anl
that the only way to keep him from il
is to tie his hands by sending Repub
leans to Congress especially Mr.
| MOrehead.
Really, if the Republican leader;
expect to bamboozle the people o.
North Carolina, they will have to ge-
together. Butler and Moreheae
thought they were making great head
way with our manufacturers by tell
ing them the President was commit
ted to the policy Of free trade. The1
MIR. Wilson came along with. hi
straightforward letter to Senator
Simmons and nailed that report as
falsehood. Now the report that wa.
designed to catch the farmer vote ha,
been branded as a fabrication out O.
the whole cloth by the Republican Oh
Guard itself.
This is mighty sorry team work
We. should have expected a better
i performance from men who hav,
been in training as long as Marion
and Motley.

Some of the people in the communi-

People have not gathered their peas
and some still have corn in the fields
Very few have dug their potatoes
Labor has been scarce and people have
worked unusually hard to make this
crop. Then do you think they are
going to let your hogs go there and
eat up their stuff while they are busy
trying to save their hay and gather
their cotton? Even if the crop were
all gathered you have no right to turr
out your hogs. They will ruin thu
bitches and you are not willing to have
them cleaned out. Sometimes hos
will get out but there are some people
who this time of the year will turl
their hogs out at night and get up b!
light and call them out of their neigh
boris fields You just as well go ou
at night and get these things as t.
send your hogs for them.
About the only way to stop som
people from doing this is to shut u
the hogs, after you have asked ther
to do it, and make them pay yo
