Raleigh.-"How will the meat l

This inquiry has been received by
the Food Administration from scores
Of patriotic country people In North
Carolina who have not been able to
figure out Just how pork which they
save can be made to do war service
or prevent death from starvation IN
the allied or neutral countries OF Eu'

The people who have been making
this inquiry can use poultry rabbits
and other substitutes for meat ana
are in better position to swell the
supply of pork available for export
than any other class Of people in the
state. because the substitutes for pork
and beef on the market cost more In
most instances than these products 90

Announcement for Clerk.

l hereby announce myself a
candidate for the Office of Clerk
of the Superior Court for Rich
mond County subject to the
action of the democratic primary
to be held June LIST 1918.
| wish to say to the democratic
voters of Richmond County that
situated as l am, Twill be glad to
serve again as Clerk of the Sup
erior Court.
l enter the race without pledge
or promise to any faction. No
promise to any one to do their
bidding for selfish purposes.
Therefore, / want every voter
satisfied that | have always and
am still striving to follow the true
principles of Democracy. Invite
them to examine my work in the
various departments of theClerk's
office, to inquire of my demeanor
to the public and to the public
interests of our county and of my
attitude in all things tending to
their moral uplift.
approve of the $4,000 salary
as being adequate for one mans
time competent to do this work,
and if nominated and elected, will
do as | have always tried to do,
give the best service possible.
take it that former methods
that have been practiced by some
of our candidates to arouse en-
thusiasm will be no more. Our
Country is at war. 1t is fighting
for its life, for the protection of
the home, the little children and
every other sacred interest that
gives value to life. At such a
time as this it seems to me, a
pursuance of such practice would
be offensive. Patience with il
would be no longer a virtue.
| AS it is necessary to save food
by the ounce and daylight by the
hour, candidate should be patriot
1 ic enough to let the voter rest ir
peace until primary day then hi
could select for himself a choice
j | take it that all democratic
voters are intelligent and any in
formation that might need b.
had can be obtained at the poll
This it seems to me, to be con
sistent with the time and | shall
endeavor to pursue my work witt
vigor, hoping that the voter ma,
; find in my favor and nominate
me as democratic candidate TO
Clerk of the superior Court.

 The applause frcm the big audience was almost deafening at various intervals when some paftfcularIy vivid picture was shoWn, and for five minutes at time you could hardly hear your own ears, so intense was the enthusiasm.
 Many interesting pictures are shown of Secretary Bakers visit to France-from his reception by General Pershing, whose every appearance on the screen calls forth loud applause, to the secretary's appearance on the friendly border of No Mans Land.
 There are pictures of the first group of German prisoners captured by the "Eam- rnies," including 21 men and two officers the two officers, by the way, refusing to face the camera, only now and then turn ing their heads, looking furiously mad and scowling, like wild men; the prison CTS showed plainly that they had suf- fered the very maximum of physical and moral deteriorating influences, and were a sad lot to behold.
 prewar picture of the Kaiser review ing his troops was shown, which, it is needless to say provoked thorough dis gust, while a short time later when a picture of President Wilson was flashed, showing him at his desk. hard at work, the audience went wild with enthusiasm
 One of the most picturesque of all the groups shown was that portraying the American troops the first day in the front-line trenches, and the thrills these pictures excite could hardly be trans scrbed to paper-so tremendous was the feeling.
 "Pershing's Crusaders is a magnifi- cent production; it is accurate, because it is a government official picture; it is interesting because it deals with facts; it is educational because it tells you the why's and the "wherefores' of every thing connected with our American army, and it's pleasing to the eye because it is beautifully photographed.
