federation of societies whose
members number 100000.
Henry Noble MacCracken,
president of Vassar, in his a.
dress Of welcome said:
"The democracy Of the currf|
culum is the unique achievement
of the American college. We
recognize no royal road to learn,
ing. It remains for us to break
with one more barrier Of the
academic tradition-the barrier
that separates those reared in
the atmosphere Of college from
! those in the great industrial
! heart of America.
"By means Of just such organ
;zations the National League Of

FRENCH PEOPLE READ
AMERICAN LITERATURE

Paris, June 19.-The American
library in Paris, with 10000
American volumes on it's shelves
and its tables covered with
American magazines and news
papers, draws 33 percent Of it's
reading room attendance from
French people, It is rapidly be-
coming the chief connecting link
between the literary interests of
France and the United States
and during the two years Of it's
existence it has greatly stimu1a-
ted French interest in things
American.
At the beginning Of 1922 the
library funds amounted to 674,-
900 francs, and it is intended to
spend much Of this in enlarging
existing facilities. A branch in
the Latin quarter is planned,
and others are contemplated.
The library is used by French
Ministers and many Of the best
known French literary, scientific
and professional men. It re-
ceives dozens Of requests a week
fer information about America.
Recently a French architect ask.
,, ed for all available information
about skyscrapers, and several
. literary men came for help in
, writing biographies Of Henry
Ford and Secretary Hughes.

Suffer
Losses From
ogCholera?

: ln two sections around Scot
land Neck hog cholera is raging.
1t has completely wiped out one
herd of thirty-four head and is
in another adjoining herd. This
second herd was inspected this
morning an dali the hogs were
found infected. 1t is only a
matter Of a few days until they
will be dead. Why not make ar
rangements to have your herd
lnoculated Immediately? The
hog cholera serum is a preventi-
tive and not a cure and if your
hogs are attended to before they
become sick, you need not have
any worry about cholera.
DR.. +. D. Owen of the U. S.
Department Of Agriculture is in
Scotland Neck for a few days to
assist with the hug chnlara work
and now is the time to have this
work done.
Hog cholera incubation is not
an experiment but it is an abso-
iute preventative and it is the
height Of folly to allow your
hogs tot go without this treat
ment. This treatment is given
without cost to the grower for
he services Of the agricultural
agent and any veterinarian that
the government might send down
here and the only cost that will
accrue will be the cost Of the
serum and virus that is used in
the herd. This cost will be from
about forty cents for sucking
pigs to about a dollar and forty
cents for the largest hogs in tn,
county.
Make your arrangements to
have this work done thru the ag
7icultural agent at Scotland
Neck.

SCOTLAND TO- DEVELOP
ITS WATER POW Err

London, June 19.-Scotland is
waking up to the fact that it's
lakes and waterfalls may be made
to serve other purposes than
providing scenic attraction for
tourists. As proof Of this the
''Grampaian Electricity Bill'
has been given a second reading
in the House Of Commons.
The company is empowered to
collect and use the waters OF
Is 1ochs and SO small lakes, riv-
ers and streams, over an area OF
AIT square miles.
The waters proposed to be
utilize dare estimated to be capa-
bic Of generating $4,000 horse
power to supply electricity IN
the counties Of Perth, Kinross and
Forfar and districts in four 9th
er counties. The capital is plac-
ed at 100000.
That any Of the beautiful lakes
anG falls Of caledonia, stern
and Wild should be used to get
the wheels Of industry spinning
many in Scotland regard almost
as sacriligious desecration. And
that opinion is shared by not q
few Americans who are accus
toned to visit Scotland annually
But the promoters declare
that the. preservation Of the nat
ural beauties Of Scotland is ex
pressly provided for by thu
terms of the bill. And they ado
that when the hum Of the elect
rically-driven wheels Of industr!
ere heard in the land, and divl
dends begin to come in, the or.
of "desecration" will be sllen
ced.

I Under the new plan all Of
Sweden's public schools, from

At present only the elementary

School Commission purposes to
open the "realskola' and the

Hnys: An important change will
-sAe the ei11n1ndFstya Of several SUD
Jects as compulsory and the con-
centration Of individual students
on a smaller group Of subjects,
logically related to the occupa-
ton or profession which most in
terests them. Students will be
permitted to start specializing
much earlier than at present.
i It is now proposed that virtual
ly the whole educational wor!
Of the country, with the excep
ion of & few private schools be

as "lyceum' which in sever
years will take q p1LAl directly

MANY FORCER|ES Of
EGYPTIAN ANTIQUES

London, June 2O.-''The manu-
facture Of antiquities is carried
forward on such an extensive
scale in Egypt, particularly at
Cairo that it now has a place in
reports on the industries of the
country,' says Professor Find
ers Petrie, the famous Egyptian
archaeologist in an interview in
the Daily Chronicle.
The forgeries Of Egyptian an
tiquities are often so well execut-
ed, he states, that even the most
experienced collectors are de-
ceived by them. Large sums Of
money have been paid. for alti-
cles that were considered gen
uine treasures but have now been
pronounced spurious orof doubt
full origin. So strong is the sus-
licion concerning the authenti-
city Of scarabs and various
brenze and gold ornaments and
other articles alleged to have
been found in Egypt that many
collectors are afraid to risk buy
ing them, and in an excess OF
caution often turn down anti
duties that are undoubtedly gen
uine. Thus the forgeries have
largely ruined the market FOR
Egyptian historical treasures.

MAP OF EUROPE
CONSTANT PUZZLE

Belgrade, Jugoslavia, June 10.
The map Of Europe was so
badly cut up by the peacemakers
at Paris that it is still constant
puzzle to many people, especial
ly Americans. The geography Of
the new Baltic republics and the
countries in the alkans and Near
East seems to be particularly OBJ
scure. European postal authori
ties find that Americans often
confuse Serbia with Siberia, Ru-
mania with Armenia, Jugoslavia
with Czecho-Slovakia, Bucharest
with Budapest, Bulgaria with
Bavaria; and so on.
"People in the United States
show that most lamentable lack
Of knowledge Of this part of the
world" a prominent American
diplomat in the Balkans said re-
Gently to the correspondent. Not
two persons in 10 can locate the
Balkan >countries accurately.
And ! am sorry to say our own
government officials often show
distressing ignorance. Not long
ago the American consular chief

seal from the State Department

STUDENTS OF THE PEK|NC
UNIVERSITY START ANTI
CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT

Annoy, China, June 1.-THE
religious world Of the Far East
is stirred by an anti-Christian
movement which started early IN
May among the students Of Pek-
mo University, and is now rapid
iy spreading among the students
Of private and government
schools throughout the country.
These young people term Chris
tianity a superstition and harm.
nj to the people, taking away
reverence for ancestors and free
dom Of thought and action.
The new movement has begun
an energetic propaganda, which
IN turn has brought Christian
leaders to the front, many Of
whom look upon the movement
with grave misgiyings, not know
mg what will be the outcome.
Others think it is simply the re
suit ri 2 desire to 4AssgaHf4%s
something. and that the best
means Of defeating it is to ignore
it
Conditions provoking the or
-anization Of such movement
are said by Christian leaders to
be the rapid progress Of Chris
tlanitv IN China. taken together
with much talk and advertising
Of the recent Worlds Christian
Student Conference and other
conferences Of like nature held
IN this country. The students
are declared to be unconscious
tools IN the hands Of leaders who
are seeking favorable conditions
fer the breaking up Of organic.
ed society and the working Of
Communistic ideas.
The leaders Of this anti-C Chris
tan movement are DR.. Tsai Yam
pc l,Chancellor Of the Pekine
National University; Wang
Chaoming Secretary to DR.. Sur
lat-sen, and Chen Tu-siu, who
is Socialist. Sub-organization<
will no doubt spring up. A Free
Love Society has a already beer
