WILL ADOPT PIECE PLAN

DIR. l.. j Smith, superintendent OF
turned from Raleigh where he was
one of the representatives Of the
counties which are operating under
the cooperative health work plan in
ested instead of sixteen as published
a day or so ago.
DR.. Smith says that the piece work
plan has been adopted, and that un-
cure from the state an additional
$250O.O0 if they earn the money.
BY putting the employees of the va
rious county health departments on
the piece work basis, he believes the
work will be stimulated, and the de-
partment will be able to ascertain
just what is accomplished and at
what cost.
Records will be kept from reports
of individual employees turned into
the county health departments, and
these in turn will be reported to the
state department and in this way a
correct idea will be had of the amount
of work accomplished and the va
rious lines of work covered.
The state heretofore has been Civ
ing to the various counties adopting
the plan 100000. This amount
will be increased if the cost justifies.
The present cost of the work in this
county is as follows:
From the state 100000 100000
from the county and $2980.00 from
the city, total of $89SO.OO per
year.

WORK OF MRS. NC BRIDE

With the departure OF Rev. and
Mrs. J. L. Mcbride for Old Fort,
where Mr.. Mcbride has been called
to serve the Presbyterian church in
that place Wilson loses a lady who
has been of signal value to this
county. da1
AS County demonstration agent for
the past six years she has demon
strated a marked ability in organi-
Zation, training and development of
the women and girls of the county
in those things that go to make the
home more beautiful, more comfort
able and life in the rural districts
worth living. Hand in hand with
the farm demonstration agents she
has looked after and directed and
developed the minds and hearts and
hands of the women folks, while the
farm demonstratOr was at work with
the farmers in order to make more
stuff per acre and increase the po-
ductivity of the soil, upon the idea
that with increased production and
greater intelligence the seeds Of sus-
picion and of disbelief, born of ig-
norance and poverty. would disap-
pear. They have builded in very
short space of time better than they
thought, for today the farmers Of
Wilson county and their wives live
we'll at home, have all the comforts
of life and Wilson county is the gar
den spot Of the world with its happy
and contented people. What a
change from several years ago?
But we started out particularly to
speak of the work of Mrs. Mcbride,
which cannot be written in terms Of
dollars and cents for it's worth can
not be measured that way, it is too
valuable. 1t cannot be measured in
terms of any value because when the
condition of people are bettered
economically, socially and intellect
ually, the ground work is laid for
their moral and spiritual develop
ment.
The report Of Mrs. Mcbride is in
today's paper She has handled
from the very beginning the Home
demonstration work of the county.
When she began six years ago there
we're no canning clubs or sewing
clubs In the county. She taught the
children to raise gardens and can
vegetables. She taught them how
to sew, how to think and think CO.
herently and systematically, for while
she was training their hands she
was also training their minds AS

AMERICAN LEGION NOTES

association in Tennessee to attend their annual reunion at Chattanooga, 20 men of Nashville post of the American Legion devoted a day each to raising a fund to defray their eX- penses.
 Five thousand wireless stations forming a network from coast to coast are receiving nightly bulletins of information concerning the folth~ coming national convention of the American Legion. A sending set with range of 1,5O0 miles flashes the news from Kansas City at 7:30 and 8:30 o'clock each night and members of the Western Radio Company, most of them Legion men of army wireless experience, pick up the stories for their local news papers.
 From eight to ten cents a day for meals and bed is the rate in hotel just opened in Des Moines, Ia., by Sheriff w. E. Robb, who does 1t for jobless ex-service men in addition to his other duties. Only cards supplied by the American Legion and trades and labor assembly of the city will admit guests.

They were to don gas masks and fumigate immigrant ships, the work to last month. Declaring they had faced death once the men gave up and started looking for another job.

MEANT "DIVISI0N WITH KING" Royalties" In Old Days slanlfled Something Altogether Different
 From Meaning Today.

Recipients of royalties from books, patents, mines or any other thing may claim kin with kings, etymologically speaking, at least, for royalty rep resented originally the kings portion of the profits of venture.
 The word entered England from France, and was sometimes called a "seignorage." The king of England at the time was the actual possessor of all land In the domain, as he is only nominally today. All mines that were worked, all lands that were tiled, directly or indirectly paid trib- ute to him. He possessed a similar power, though less clearly understood, over printing and inventions.
 The payment of a royalty to an author, inventor or other persons to- day Is recognition of the ownership of the recipient to the basic right in the thing worked or produced. The pub fisher, manufacturer or operator may have, and usually does have, the heavi- est investment, but the man who gets the royalty Is the man who holds pos session in fee simple, subject to what contracts he may make with those associated with him in the develop ment or distribution of his property.

CHAPTER XIII.

John Stuart Webster's agile brain
was the repository of many conflict
ing emotions as he bathed. shaved.
and changed from his soiled khaki
field clothes to a suit of ducks before
presenting himself before Dolores.
Had Billy's courage forsaken him
at the last minute. with the result
that he had gone back to the United
States without having settled the
question of Dolores future? Had he
proposed and been rejected. or had
he proposed, been accepted. and had
his plans for an immediate marriage
vetoed by Dolores?
In either event, why had Billy
JAILED to leave note for him at the
Hotel Mateo, or mailed him a letter
to the Globo de Orc at San Miguel de
Padua, advising him of the change In
the plan of action outlined for him by
Webster?
In the simplicity of his single-heart-
Cd devotion Webster was puzzled to
understand how any woman in her
right mind could fail to fall in love
with Billy Geary. A man he was, from
heels to hair. and man with pros
poets far above the average. To Web

married Billy might well count her
self fortunate.

pleasure. well. Caliph!" she said.
Just that. It made Webster sensible
of a feeling of having returned to her
after an absence of several years.
"Tm SO glad to see you, Miss Ruey,"
he replied. and added boldly, "par-
tfcular1y since l didn't expect to-"
She knew what her reply would lead
to; nevertheless, with that dissimula-
ton which can only be practiced in
perfection by a clever and beautiful
woman, she answered with equal bold
ness: "Indeed! Pray whyT'
