MONKEYS USED IN
FIGHT AGAINST FLU.

New York. Jan. 3O.-Five hundred
monkeys have been used in the last
three years in experiments by which
the vaccine now in use against pneu-
monia has been developed. This has
been part of a nationwide campaign
of research work on the subject of in
fluenza and pneumonia, which has
proved among other things, accord
ing to DR.. William H. Park of the
Health Department, that the invis-
causes ''flu'' can pass through a stone
wall.
For three years the Health Depart
ment has kept under observation g.
900 vacinated persons and 5000 un-
vaccinated and twelve among the un-
vaccinated. There have been two
cases of pneumonia among the vac
cinated and twelve among the un-
vaccinated. The two groups included
employees of the telephone company,
of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company, policemen and a number
of volunteers.
The monkeys have been brought in
as needed from South America and
Africa, and the experimenting has
been carried out in Washington by
the Public Health Service and in
New York at Bellevue Hospital. The
Federal work has been in charge of
ments here have been directed by DR..
William II. Park.

WANT A MATTRESS?

The people of Wilson have never
had a better opportunity Of getting
an all-felt handmade mattress than
now,-and for so little money. The
state class for adult blind men at our
county home building is now spe-
'by-product' of the class will be quite
number of mattresses which will
be sold. The prices Of the mattress
will be the actual cost of the felt and
five cents which is for thread, twine,
sewing, etc. If you prefer you can
purchase the kind of ticking you like,
the special pattern that suits your
fancy and have them made for spe-
cial sized beds, kiddie koops, cots,
porch swings or any other place
where mattresses or pads are used
You can have them stuffed specially
hard or not as you like.
Before many days we will place
one of these mattresses in the win
dow of a leading store so that you
can see for yourself. We are not ask
ing you to buy for we are not in the
business commercially but we are
simply giving the people of the COM
munity an opportunity to supply
themselves with this necessity.
This class will also renovate any
old mattress that needs repairing
and make it good for many more
years. The charge would be nominal.
The mattress would have to be de-
livered at the county home as we
have no means of delivery.
Within short time chair-seating
and basketry will be started and the
public will likewise be given an OPP
portunity to avail themselves of
these products.
Any one interested in a mattress
will communicate with Mr.. R. B.
Fink, County Home, Wilson, N. c.,
or Mr.. Samuel E. Leonard, Supt. Pub
lie Welfare, Wilson.

CAPITOL CITIZENS
WANT A VOICE In
CITY GOVERNMENT

CONTINUED from page, one)
citv at least a Qualified voice in their
own affairs.
The building problem is ever so
much more serious than it was.
Dozens of buildings were erected
during the war. The government it
self has scores of temporary struc-
lures where thousands of employees
work daily 1t was the common boast
of builders how fast they could put
ND some of these box buildings. And
this city has grown since the war.
The responsibilities of city officials
have multiplied, yet Congress only
last week pared the district appro-
priations vitality and left the muni-
cipa1 government on a shoestrlng
basis for the coming year. If street
has to be extended, Congress must
pass law to that effect. If police
mans pay must be increased, the
Congress must approve it. If traffic
is to be regulated, Congress must
approve the regulations or grant the
authority for the making of them. A
busy congress is supposed to manage
the District of Columbia's detailed
affairs and run the federal affairs of
the nation besides. The District of
Columbia has long suffered and has
long complained. The Knickerbocker
disaster may teach a lesson. The saw
ing of other lives is involved in eff
cient municipal government. God
moves in strange ways his wonders to
perform.

A COMPLICATED AFFAIR

Greensboro, Jan. 30.-A triangu-
lar $4,000 damage suit, brought in
Federal court here by J. H. Smith a
railroad brakeman, of Danville, Va,
furnishes lawyers with one of the
queerest legal tangles to be tried
here in a long time The Carolina
Cotton and Woolen Mills, the DAN
vile and Western Railway and the
Western Union Company are the
Defendants.
Smith charges that a defective
metal smokestack of the Nantucket
Mills at Spray fell across some wire
of the Western Union; that the wires
were thrown across the track of the
Danville and Western and that he
was injured when they caught him
while standing on a train of the Dan.
Vile and Western. Z
The cotton mill is charged with
negligence by allowing the smoke
stack to become defective; the tele-
graph company is accused of care
lessness in not Strengthening out it's
wires and the railroad company is
with negligence because it
failed to notify it's employees that the
wires were across the track.

ARE SIGN
OF INEFFTCIENCY.

Chicago, Jan. 3O.-Systematic ac-
cident prevention pays, in dollars
saved and suffering avoided, say Off
cials of the Chicago Great Western
Railroad in making public figures to
show reductions in deaths and in
juries on that road for 1921.
Accidental deaths were cut from
33 in 1920 to 20 in 1921, according
to statement issued by the COM
pany and the number of injuries re-
duced from 61O to 294 in this per-
iod.
Ten of the deaths in the last year
resulted from automobile-c crossing
accidents, five of those killed were
five were employees, while no passen-
gers were killed, the statement adds.
The western division won the ban
ner offered by the company for few
est train and train service casualties
per 100000 engine hours.
The company boosted safety work
among the employees by means of
daily wire bulletins in each division
the number of days since
there had been a reportab1e accident
on the division. This bulletin was
copied and posted at all telegraph
stations. 1t was put out to train crews
whenever these cleared a train from
a station and was mailed to points in
the service not reached by telegraph.
Factors which went to promote
safety work, according to the state
ment, are:
1. Whole hearted support of safety
work by the management
2. Conversion of superintendent to
the idea that accidents show inefh-
cheney and that their prevention is
just as much part of the days work
as the prevention of train delays
that safety work is the first principle
of efficiency, not side issue.
8. Conversion of employees to the
belief that accident prevention work
really decreases accidents the
employe is the chief gamer through
such work and that care1essness is
criminal folly from which only ply
sical suffering and financial loss are
to be expected.
4. Promotion of a spirit of COM
petition among employees by the Civ
ing of prizes among divisions.
5. Improved methods of maintain
ing interest in accident prevention

''This seems to be generation of
sget-mores" said Mr.. Shaw. "The
question that seems uppermost in
young peoples minds nowadays is,
how can I get more money, how can
l find a short cut to wealth? If more
than the legitimate fee for service
or profit from an undertaking is to be
obtained, they are all for it. What we
need to teach the younger generation
is how to put more into life, not how
to get more out of it.
"Yet the idea of thrift seems fur
thest from their minds. The whole
sentiment among young people is not
to accumulate savings, and thrift is
considered stinginess. There is only
one infallible rule for success, and
that is-can a man live within his
income? A man who spends all of his
income for living expenses is never
going to succeed"
The evils of a paternalistic central
Government was another tendency of
the present day seen by Mr.. Shaw.
'The function of government is
not to give ,old-age pensions he
went on. 1--WE are rapidly drifting in
the direction Of having our Federal
Government care for everybody, in
spirit of mistaken charity, instead of
leaving a free rein to individual in
itiative and the opportunity of every
man to carve out his own destiny. Do
you want to hold by your inalienable
right and do your own work, whether
it is running a railroad or boring for
oil, or do you want your Government
to say, Here, you may lose money
let us bore your we'll for you? If we
pursue our present course in which
we are headed, our young men in
few years will be expecting the
Government to come around every
morning with a milk bottle and give
each of them four swallows. That's
not what we made America for"
Growing boys are not being taught
the meaning of days work and the
value of dollar as they were in the
old days, Mr. Shaw thought It was
not the country's illiterates who were
sleeping in the parks with newspa-
pers for a mattress, but those whose
parents kept them from working that
they might get a education.
But I'm not against education,
mind you,' said the speaker. 81

Raising Low Grade Cotton.

A new cleaning process, by which II
is claimed low grade cotton can be
raised three to five and even SIX
grades, was demonstrated Wednes-
adv by the inventor, Phillip c. Wads-
worth at the plant of the Cacap Cot
ton Corporation, at the Bush Ter
minal. 10th street and First Avenue.
BROOKLYN. The chief new factor in the
process is the method of drying the
fiber thoroughly before attempting to
remove trash and dust particles. Mr..
Wadsvorth explained that his pro-
cess in no way dana ged the fiber, but
in fact, enhanced it's spinning quail
ties bv the elimination of immature
and short fbres. The inventor said
that the value of bale of No. 7 Pima
cotton could be raised about 500 by
his method, allowing for a II per
cent. waste in treating it. The pro
cessed fher in this instance. he de-
clared graded No. or No. 2. THe
rlsnt at present has a capacity OF HFe
bales an hour, and additions are con-
templated.
