PELLAGRA SCARE
Federal Government Sending Out A.
farming Reports Of Pellagra Epidemic
Over South. Greatly Exaggerated.
A Dozen Cases in Richmond County.

The Public Health Service De-
partment of the Government sent
out a report Monday to the effect
that pellagra is increasing with
alarming speed over the South,
due to the low price of cotton and
the resultant fact that tenants
and others are forced to live on
the cheapest diet such as salt
pork, corn meal and molasses.
These foods are valuable when
balanced. by other foods, but eat
en- by themselves they lack GER
tain elements that are absolutely
essential to the maintenance of
health. And these other foods
are simply beyond the purchase
of the tenants and others.
Undoubtedly there is much
truth in the report, but that it is
terribly exaggerated goes with
out question. Any one reading
the glaring reports would think
that our Southern people were
starving and dying by the thou
sands from pellagra. This is not
true.
Inquiry by the Post DISPATCH
among Rockingham physicians
shows that the colored doctor has
six pellagra patients, and among
the white doctors one has three,
one has just one, three have none,
and one has two. There is one
white patient at the County
Home.

A RECORD OF WORK
Last Monday Marked the FifGeth An
niversafy Of WIN. Entwistle's Coming
to Rockingham. Not an Obituary
But a Rough Sketch Of a Working
Man in the Flesh.

Fifty years ago last Monday, Mr..
William Entwistle came to Rocking
ham. The story of his life is almost
like romance-the story of man
who worked and saved, and who
was AND is always, on his Job. 1t
is no obituary, for Mr.. Entwistle is
hale and hearty, and attends to his
duties as President of the Entwistle
cotton mill, and general superinten-
dent of the two Pee Dee mills. But
the Post-Dispatch feels minded to go
into detail of this mans business
life because OF the incentive it might
hold to others.
In 1869 Mr.. Entwistle came from
England (he was born at Accrington
Lancashire), and after several
months spent up North came to
South Carolina to Graniteville; he
went from there to Langley, about
4 miles distant, where he worked
/. for two years.
The old Great Falls mill was burn
ed during the war, but in 1869 Wal
ter F. Leak reorganized the mill and
sstarted it in operation again in 1870,
he being its first president. Shortly
after starting, superintendent to be
JOHN Morgan found that he needed
really competent weaving over
seer; so NE went to Graniteville in
search of one. The superintendent
there informed him that there was a
young EnglishrAan over at Langley
and that if he could get him he
would be getting the right man. Mr..
Morgan went to Langley, saw the
young Englishman and made, the
deal. Mr.. Entwistle accordingly
came to Rockingham, reaching the
town July 25th, 1871, and at once
went to work as 9verseer of weav-
ing. The president of the Great
Falls mill then was Colonel John
w. Leak. The young man remained
with the mill for Z 1-2 years in
charge of the weaving, EMIL at
that time having 100 looms and 5000
spindles.
In 1874 MI. Robert L. Steele or
ganized a cottor mill company, and
Rockingham post-dispatch. [volume] (Rockingham, N.C.) 1917-1965, 1921-07-28

active work was begun in 1874 on
Pee Dee mill No. /. 1t was opened
for work in 1876 with 10Aooms and
1000 spindles--the same size of the
Great Falls mill with exception of
one-third less spindles. Mr.. En-
twistle became superintendent of
this new mill~in December 1878,
started work from the first turn of
the wheels and has remained ever
since and from the small beginning
this No. mill has grown until to-
day it has $50 looms and 1900 spin
dlas.' He has literally nursed it
from an infant TO a lusty, full grown
product. Mr.. Robert L. Steele was
its first president, he resigning in
November 1882 and being succeeded
by his brother, Colonel Walter L.
Steele, who became president in No
vember of that year. Colonel Steele
died in October 1891, and was sue
ceeded by w. C. (Doc) Leak, who
in turn was succeeded as president
about three years ago by George P.
Entwistle, son of the subject of this
sketch. In 1899 new mill was
started by the company, known as
Pee Dee No. 2, and this mill started
up on January 1st, 1900 mighty
easy date to remember. This No. 2
mill is about half mile below the
mill No. /. And right now the No. 2
is enlarging to the extent of having
an addition to the cloth room built,
size 72xl0O, of two stories, and the
entire village is being turned up
side down with the work of Install
ing complete sewerage system for
the homes.
In 1910 the EntwistTe Manufactur-
ing Company, was formed and a
mill built south of the Seahoard
Railway about two miles from Rock
ingham. The mill was opened for
work in May, 1911, with Mr.. En-
twistle as president. 1t has 800
looms and 26,400 spindles. The mill
takes its name from it's first-and
only, so far-president.
Mr.. Entwistle has always been a
dilligent worker, master of detail
and a man who preserved with that
bulldog determination that is SC
characteristic of our English cousins
From a small beginning he has
worked his way until he has amass-
ed a comfortable share of this
worlds goods-and yet with it all
he is just William Entwistle, a, kind
ly young elderly man.

VACCINATION SCHEDULE
Free Vaccination Campaign
For Richmond County A.
) gainst Typhoid Fever. Sche-
dule of Dates. No Charge
Whatever. M

About this time of the year
typhoid fever begins to make itself
noticeable. Here and there all over
the county cases appear. The sum
mer months, June, July and August
are the bad months for typhoid, Sep
tember is little better. Flies furnish
a mighty easy method of transmit.
ting the disease from family to
family.
The people of Richmond county
are going to have an opportunity
now of getting protection against
typhoid. The Board of County
Commissioners has made arrange
ments with the State Board ot
Health for free dispensaries to be
conducted in convenient places
throughout the county, the schedule
of which is given below.
That typhoid fever can be prevent
ed has been amply proved right here
in North Carolina. In 1914 there
were 839 deaths in the State from
this cause. Last year there were
only 1923. Improved sanitstion anC
vaccination are the reasons.
Typhoid fever IS the most easily
prevented of all the preventable dis
eases. Anti-typhoid vaccination
gives protection for at least three
years, and may be taken without in

EMPLOYEES SUE MILL
Weayers at Steele's Mills Quit Work
When Required to Work 60 Hours
Per Week. No Dispute Over Wages.
Weave Room Running Full Time
and Full Force Now.

A case of considerable local in.
terest was tried before Squire
Mullis in the courthouse Satur.
day afternoon, six weavers of
Steele's Mills suing the mil, for
their back-pay which the mill
had held back when they quit
work. until they should have
vacated the mill houses.
From what the Posi-, DISPATCH
can gather, the mill several
weeks ago put the weave room
on a 60-hour per week basis un-
til some certain orders could be
filled. The employees made nc
objection to working 60 hours (of
course the pay was on the basis
of 60 hours work. but when the
specified time was up they asked
to be put back on 55.hour basis.
Due to the conditions, the
spinning and card rooms for a
while were obliged to work but
so hours inasmuch as the weave
room at SIS hours could not han.
die the work. And so rather
than keep these two rooms at SO
hours, the mill decided to put the
smaller weave room at 60 and
the other two rooms at SIS; the
majority of the weavers didn't
like this new arrangement and
so on Wednesday of last week
they presented a petition to the
management asking that the
room be put back to SIS hours

The appropriations made by the
Legislature for the hiunnium foot up
about r46,000.000 or $23,00O.00O a
year. The defeat of the Hirst road
bill materially reduces the estimated
income for the same period, so that,
if all the appropriations made are
called for, the state will have spent
between two million and three mil
lion dollars more than its income
This result can be obviated only by a
failure to construct buildings author
lied for the university, normal schools
