ANNOUNCES
CHANCE FOR NEGROES
Governor of North Carolina Says
Some from Illinois Will Be
Welcomed.

Raleigh, N. c. Aug. Gov. T. w
Beckett today, answering query OF
Chicago newspaper, said that North
Carolina can absorb $4,000 negroes
who want to return from Illinois to
the South unless they have become
tainted or intoxicated with dreams OF
social equality or political dominion
The governor was asked by the Chi
cago paper in a telegram received
here Friday how many negroes this
State could absorb, the negroes hav-
ing appealed to the Chicago paper
during the recent rioting in that city.
The message to the governor said that
those desiring to return were negroes
who went to Chicago to engage in
war work and were of the industrious
class.
Returning from a mountain trip to-
day, the governor wired the Chicago
paper that this State could absorb
$4,000 negroes "who may desire to
come to this State for honorable en-
ployment at remunerative wages He
declared, however, that social equality
and political power in the South is
forever impossible.

Dear Herald:-It seems as il the
thinkers of the present chaotic world
are diligently scratching their wise
old heads in the effort to get the
white matter therein in such working
order that will enable them to solve
some of the grave problems that the
so called civilized world is now fac
ing. In the old days when the pop
ulation was American at heart and
sang with heart felt zeal, sweet
land of liberty of thee we sing" Now
we have the star spangled banner, we
have Bolshevisfm, labor organizations
that are continuously striking. mono
poles that hold the purse strings OF
the world. Then women sutfragists
willing to have Dina go with them to
the polls and cast her vote also. And
again the Woman's Christian Union
wants congress to enact law pro-
hibiting the planting Of tobacco,
thereby taking great comforter from
the aged that so loves his pipe. AS
to the cigarette fiend this law would
be of great benefit. Then we have
Senator Borah and his tribe doing
their utmost to stir up trouble at

impoverished crank who spent a

MIR. MOSQUITO HARMLESS
The Female of the Species More
Deadly Than the Male.

Mr.. Mosquito does not bite; his
bill is so blunt that he could not be
a blood-sucker if he wished 1t is
Mrs. Mosquito who does all the dead
ly work of fever propagation. She
is the most active around dawn and
after sunset She avoids strong
light and prefers dark colors. She
is essentially a domestic creature,
staying around houses by prefer
ence.
In the autumn the males die and
the females seek winter quarters.
They hibernate in dark corners of
cellar and garret, and on the first
warm day of spring are out laying
their egSs. Save when extended by
the arrival of this alternating peri
cd, the life of the female is one "
two months, the male, on the other
hand, lives but few days. The food
of the mosquito is the juice and nee
tar of plants and, of course, blood
though not necessarily that of man
animals, reptiles and even caterpil--
lars are bitten with the same free
dom.
The female mosquito lays from
fifty to one hundred eggs at a time,
on any quiet bit of water. In about
three days they hatch, and though at
first the larva is very small, it grows
rapidly and attains full development
in few days. We have then the fa-
miliar wrigglers of the old time rain
barrel and the uncovered cistern.
During the larval stage, which
lasts from seven to fourteen days,
the malarial variety can be distin-
guished from all others by the curl
ously inclined by virtue of the fact
that it lies with its body parallel to
the surface of the water, while the
other species hang their heads down
