SCHOLARS
 HAIL FROM ALL STATES Of UNION
Over $50 Ex-Service Men Are In Leading Colleges
 of the Country

In the official report of their edu- cational movement for ex-service men, the Knights of Columbus show that out of a total of 5000 applica tions for the 100 scholarships they offered last August to veterans of the war, 967 applicants qualified for prelimin- ary examination. Applications were received from every state in the Union. Over 100 came from men in France, and one from an American soldier in Germany. The Knights in creased the number of scholarships from 100 to a number sufficient to accommodate the men who passed the entrance examination set by the in stitutton they desired to enter. Of the 967 over 800 qualified; 2S4 are now in school and others will be placed. It is expected that the final roster of K. of c. ex-service scholars will contain between $50 and 450 names.
 Not one of the men selected by the Knights had other prospects of re- ceiving higher technical or academic education. The Knights provide them with tuition, board and lodging and books. In cases where the men live off campus they are allowed $50 per month for living expenses, a sum in excess of that given by most large endowments.
 The bulk of the applicants selected technical courses in engineering, min ing, agriculture, etc.
 While the Knights asked no ques- Hons concerning religious affiliations of applicants, all denominations are represented among the scholars, Catholics being less than 50 per cent. of the total.
 It is estimated that the cost of gfv- ing these men a full course will be over S1,000,000. These scholarships, with the K. of C. demobilized mems technical schools now operated by scores of K-C subordinat councils will bring the expenditure for the Knights educational branch of recon struction work into multiple millions. The Knights have no strings on the students excepting that they must keep abreast with studies. Many football and other athletic stars are numbered among them.

Chinese Not Wanted
 In Lower California

Mexico City. Nov. 24-Immigra- tion of Chinese to Lower California continues to be a matter of diplo- matic concern here. The latest de- velopment, according to Fl Demo- crata, was the refusal of Governor Cantu of that state to allow group of prospective Chinese colonists to enter. The Chinese legation here was appealed to and representations were made at the Department of Foreign Relations which gave assurances that everything was being done by the government to adjust the difficulty. The government has announced on several occasions that discrimination aga ainst the Chinese will not be coun- tenance&

If You Can Do These
 Tricks You Are Sober

London, Oct. 30-Here is one Lon don police surgeons tests to determine the oft-disputed question as to wheth- CT a person is drunk:
 Walk a straight line, heel and toe, without swaying.
 Pick up a piece of paper from the floor while standing on one foot.
 Say the words "tonsilitis,' 'tarti1- lery,' British Constitution and ''pussyfoot" without a recurrence of the 'sh' sound as in ''slush.''
 .'The prisoner did these things, but not satisfactorily" explained the sur geon after recounting his ''tests'' be- fore a court trying a man on a charge of drunkenness.
 "I doubt whether I could pass that examination, any time, the case is dismissed,'' commented the judge.

REIDSVILLE MARKET J
OPENS SEPTEMBER 16

The Reidsville tobacco market Will
open on Tuesday, Sept. Is, instead of
Sept. /, as was planned, says the Re-
view.
S. C. Penn, president of the Reds
Vile Tobacco Board of Trade, receiv-
ed a telegram Wednesday from L.
M. Darlington, president Of the To-
bacco Association of the United
State, requesting that all markets in
the old bright tobacco belt defer their
opening sales until Sept Is. The tel
egram stated that owing to the clos
ing of the South Carolina and Georgia
tobacco markets for ten days on ac-
count of the recent railroad embargo
on tobacco shipments, such firms as
Liggett G. Meyers, j. P. Taylor To-
bacco Company, and many other
large concerns would be unable to
place buyers on the old belt markets
or handle the tobacco in their steam
drying plants before Sept. 18th.
A meeting Of the Reidsville Tobacco
Board of Trade was held in the G. &
A. hall Wednesday afternoon and 1T
was unanimously agreed to comply
with President Carrington's request.
Tuesday Sept 16, was set as the date
for the opening of the market. The
Review says
While the date set is almost a
month later than last years opening,
it will entail no special hardship on
the farmers. 1t will enable them to
devote more time and care to cutting
and curing the crop than would be
the case were they to begin market
ing at an earlier date.

has been unable to organize sufficient
ly the civil government and admins

TOBACCO FARM TO
BE A LARGE AFFAIR

Establishment of a modern tobacco
farm in Williams township, Chatham
county, by three well known tobacco
men is announced. says the Durham
Herald The three men, George L.
Davis, f. H. Williams and F. H. Mad
dox, have purchased nearly 1000
acres of fine tobacco land upon which
high grade tobacco will be raised.
The deal it is said, is one of the larg-
est that has taken place in some years
near Durham.
Williams township, where the farm
is located, is part of the land many
citizens endeavored to have annexed
to Durham county by the last legs-
lature. 1t is unusually fertile and
has for some time been recognized as
splendid for tobacco raising. The
land was purchased from the Chat
ham Lumber company.

JULY RECORD TAI
CASES OF TYPHOID

Gratifying results in the fight being
waged against typhoid fever in North

are shown in the number of cases re-
ported for the past month. For that
period there were TAI cases reported

cases and deaths from this cause al
ways showing highest for this month.
but this year for the first Is days Of
the months only 291 cases were report
ed for the state as a whole, by far the
best record since reliable statistics
have been available.
The efforts to reduce typhoid, rec
ognized as the most easily controlled
of the preventable diseases, have been
twofold The campaign conducted in
a large number of counties during
this and the past few years to get
the people rendered immune thru
vaccination has been one phase of the
work The other has been the cam
paign for sanitation, for the proper
disposal of human eXcrement and
thereby the removal Of the source of
the disease. The two together are
making themselves felt in the lessen
ing number Of cases. and the conse-
quent fewer deaths.

there be payment of the premium
for the month of grace during which
they were covered after the lapse,
and the premium for one month for
the amount of the insurance they de-
sire reinstated. He joins the Bureau
of War Risk Insurance in urging
that this most liberal offer be taken
advantage of by every insurer who
has allowed any part of his insur-
ance to lapse. This applies to sold
iers and sailors alike.
1t is notable that the only condi-
ton for reinstatement aside from the
payments as indicated is that the as
sured give his own personal state
ment, to the best of his knowledge
and belief, that his health is as good
as when he permitted the insurance
to lapse.
Commissioner Young directs spec
ial attention to the fact that this War
Risk insurance, now given a stable
peace basis for the soldiers and sail
ors and their families, is perfectly
safe and the cheapest life insurance
obtainable. He would have every
North Carolina soldier and sailor and
the relatives of these men who risked
all in service to their country during
the great war, to get busy and make
sure that every cent of this insurance
is made available through strict COM
pliance with the most liberal terms
them in the reinstatement conditions.
