AN OsT-DIsPATCH. RIUHa
very appropriate and was readily
accepted BY all Of the school pu-
pills. Though it has not been
written but a few days, there are
very few pupils in school who do
not know it. This song will &C
company all of the athletic teams
to victory. 1t is to the music Of.
a band march. The words are
as follows.
LIST Verse
Here's to dear old Ellerbe, faithful and
bold;
Here's to our banner of maroon and
gold;
Here's to boys and girls who're faithful
to thee,
Singing the victory song oil old Ellerbe.
End Verse
Showing our colors so brave and true,
To all the world just what we can do,
Fighting and winning all the game
through,
Showing the motto of ourown school.
SCHOOL MUSEUM
The people of the town and
surround community have either
given or lent to the school al
most all of the oldrelics that they
had for the use of the school pu-
pills, who have quite a good mus.
cum now. Mr.. Mitchell is lend
ing a beautiful case to the school
containing five tomahaWkS, some
Indian pottery and beads, two
valuable breast ornaments and
fifty arrowheads. Mr.. E. N, Ing
ram has sent over some very in
teresting things, such as a pistol
that he used in the Civil war, a
rifle that his grandfather used in
the Revolutionary war. This
rifle is six feet and five inches
long. He also sent a card contain
ing one hundred and fifty arrow
heads, arranged very beautifully
on it. Besides these things there
are two copy books that were
written with a goose quill in 1887
and some Confederate and
foreign money. Arrangements
are being made to get a case for
these things. There will be-a
separate department for. rural
minerals.
This week Mr.. Sharpe and his
force have wrapped the furnace
pipes with asbestos. This will
effect a great saving of fuel and
at the same time assure greater
comfort and health to all the pu-
pills. Whereas it. formerly took
two hours and a half to get up
steam, only half an hour is now
required.

and more than twice that of municipal New
York.
In passing il should be noted that not
only Is there q distinction between Greater
London and plain London" but that the
City OF London" is something yet again"
The City Of London covers only e75 acres
and has 4 resident population of fewer than
5000. The day population. however, ex-
ceeds 300, 900.
New York Of today is an agglomerat.on Of
towns. All have been amalgamated with the
original New York, comprised in what now
Is the borough Of Manhattan, or the County
OF New York. The New York which in
ciudes the boroughs of Manhattan, Brook
lyn, Bronx, Queens and Richmond ID q
municipal unit with an area Of 326 square
miles and population Of $500 ,O4s.
Strictly speaking the municipality of New
York has more people than the municipality
OF London. For legally, a. q municipal unit,
London refers only to the area within
the boundaries Of the County Of London.
Thus the municipal London, which corr~-

10 under the five million mark.
Suppose New York were to add to its
present area the aggregate 273 miles of
Hudson, Essex and Union Counties in New
Jersey. 1t still would be a hundred square
miles smaller than Greater London" bur
would pass the seven million mark in pop.
ulation. Were it then to add portions Of
Westchester County north Of the Bronx
and of Nassau County ION Long Isiand) it
would pass London's population well within
a like area
Municipal New York is larger than mu.
nicipal London. A mythical Greater New
York extending as far into its environs as
does Greater London would be larger than
Greater London" Aside from municipaI
definition New York and the territory about
1t constitutes greater population center
than London,
More than 1000. 900 persons live within
fifty miles Of the New York City Hall and
one ninth of the entire population of the
United States reside within a hundred mile
radius of that city.

The Largest City in the World

VtHE bisEest city IN the world has moved
L from the Orient to the Occident, and,
estimating New York on the same basis q
ths population Of Greater London was COM
Duted during the recent census, the metrop-
els Of the Western Hemisphere is the largest
eity In the world. Greater London includes
an the suburbs within q radius Of fifteen
miles Of Charing Gross and has q popula.
ton Of 7,476,16S persons. On this basis
New YORK would include Jersey City, Ho-
bsken, Bayonne, Yonkers and New Rochelle.
Again the municipality Of New York, with
Q population Of $50, ,04s, census Of 1920,
