Mad Cow Killed
And Owner, Jesse Neville, Is Taking
Treatment for Rabies

A cow on the farm of Jesse
Neville, who lives out to the
west of Chapel Hill, went mad
a few days ago and had to be
killed. Mr.. Neville, who had
been milking her, was put under
treatment for hydrophobia.
Mrs. Neville, who was milking
the cow regularly, had to turn
the job over to her husband
when the cow began to get un-
ruly. When the symptoms de-
veloped further DR.. S. A. Ma
than, the village health officer
and veterinarian, was called into
consultation. He pronounced
the trouble hydrophobia and or
dered the cow killed. Its head
was cut off and sent to the lab
oratories of the Health depart
ment in Raleigh.
The source of the infection
was traced to a dog that came
wandering through the country
some time ago. A hog of Vance
Thompson's that was bitten by
the dog had to be killed, and the
dog finally met his fate in the
yard of Lexie Whitfield.

Chapel Hill Chaf


the banishment of men from
their homes while bridge par
ties, teas, receptions, and so on,
are in progress. Sometimes, of
course, they are more afraid of
being present than they are sad
dened at being kept away. When
the clubwomen came from Pine
hurst last Thursday to attend a
garden party at Miss Nellie
Roberson's, Mayor Robertson
concluded that the town wasn't
big enough for him and them
too, and made off to Durham.
l observed him there about 5 P.
NJ, looking plaintively at a
clock.
Cam MacRae took a squirt of
energy and wrecked the old
store at the post-office corner.
Then he gathered together some
of the old boards and built of
them a fence around the pile
of brickbats and broken stones.
And now again the place is
quiescent. The store came to be
spoken of as an "ancient land
mark" | hope the fence-en-
closed debris will not stay there
long enough to gain the same
title.
One of the most disconcerting
of all experiences is to attempt
to show off and then have your
effort go wrong. I recall that
once, when I was in a laboratory
class, the professor was telling
us the difference between two
combinations of gases, one ex-
plosive, the other non-explosive.
"Now, when ] pour in this" he
said, nothing will happen.
But he had his tubes mixed, and
a moment later there was a ter
rifle noise and we thought the
roof was coming off the house.
Major Cain came into the shop
the other day and / started in
to show him the mechanical
folder. Watch this" I said
proudly, and slipped a big sheet
in, The boy who attends to the
machine had been overhauling
it and had unloosed some of the
screws and tapes. So the sheet,
instead of being neatly folded,
was torn into a thousand shreds.
The Major had his old-fashioned
courtesy on tap, though. He
pretended to give no attention to
the disaster, turned aside and
began talking of something else.
In Chapel Hill this is a great
season for tournaments, meets,
competitions, of one kind or an
other. We have been having
contests in debating, in play
acting, in all manner of sports.
And now has begun the annual
triangular contest between Yer
non Howell, myself, and the
birds, to see who gets the cher

Waterville Dept.
Does Well to
Check Roof Blaze

The prompt and valiant work of the
Waterville fire department in fighting
fire on the roof of the house at "a
Sherwin street about 2.30 o'clock yes
terday afternoon probably saved the
southern part of the city from a Sc
rious conflagration. -.
The house that did burn Is a large
dwelling occupied by the families of
Gideon Montminy and Thomas Ouel-
cite. Mr.. Montminy owns the house
and occupies the upper tenement. The
fire is said to have started on the roof
from a spark blown from the chimney.
strong east wind was blowing and
in it's path were four other houses,
grouped closely together. An alarm
was rung in from box "a, and although
the trucks made quick run to the
fire, by the time they arrived the roof
was wholly afire and the blaze had
eaten it's way into the attic.
To the many spectators it appeared
that other buildings in the vicinity
were sure to catch, and CONSERVATION
was expressed by those living to the
west of the burning house. Three
lines of hose were laid and after the
flames had been subdued on the outside
of the house the blaze was attacked
from within. Heavy clouds Of smoke

drag for me, and I was just mis-
cradle all the time.

Auburn who had praised Karnak, and
so he started me taking the medi-
cine, too. | have taken six bottles
now and all my friends have noticed
my wonderful improvement. | just
eat anything l please now without it
causing me a particle Of trouble, and
nights / sleep like a healthy child.
The indigestion has left me COM
pletely and l am looking and feeling
better than l have in years. The
circles under. my eyes have all gone,
and l have so much new strength
can just do my housework like sing
ing a song. One cannot talk with
me long without hearing about Kar-
max. It's simply the grandest medi-
cine ever made"

Business Ethics
Topic at Rotary
Meeting Monday

William H. Farley of Dayton, Ohio,
a representative of the National
Cash Register Co., was the speaker
at the meeting Of the Waterville
Rotary club at the Elmwood hotel
yesterday noon. Mr.. Farley took as
his subject. Business Ethics" and in
opening his talk he said that bust
ness conditions at the present time
were good, despite the opinion to
the contrary that is held by many.
Business will not stand STILL
said the speaker. 1T will go ahead
and go ahead profitably." Mr.. Farley
told his hearers that a false condi-
ton can easily be created and he
thought that the present talked of
business depression was made by
men who have said, Business is
bad" when all along they knew con-
ditions to be satisfactory.
The fundamental of business, ac-
cording to the speaker, is salesman
ship and the true salesman should
sell himself to his customer as well
as his merchandise. For success a
desire should be created in the mind
of the customer for the goods that
the salesman is handling.
In closing Mr.. Farley urged that
business men get away from conser-
vatism, saying that nothing had ever
been accomplished by the conserva-
tive element in the world. He also
emphasized the value Of open mind
edness in business man, arguing
that 1t is the greatest asset that he
can have. He said that the cock
sure man, who would not take ad-
vice, was oftentimeS the loser.

CONG, NELSON TALKS
TO LOCAL K|WANIANS
ON THE WORLD COURT

Hon. John E. Nelson of Augusta,
congressman from this district, was
the speaker at the meeting of the
Waterville Kiwanis club at the Elm
wood hotel last evening. Mr.. Nell
son took as his subject, THE World
Court" and he made an earnest plea
for the entry of the United States
into the agreement covering this
court. He sketched the position of
the United States from the time of
the Constitutional convention which
was convened at Philadelphia for the
formation of this government show
ing that the United States Supreme
court was in effect the first inter-
national court, being the court that
settled disputes between the states
which in European countries would
doubtless had led to war.
He sIletched briefly the various
STEPS which have been taken in the
formation of the court, the part that
America has played in this great
work, and told of the various efforts
that have been made in this coun-
try to get the Senate to make the
United States Signer of the plan.
He declared that when the United
States entered the World War the
youth of this country was told that
they would be fighting the last great
fight among nations. This ideal is
not nearer contamination today than
it was at the close of the war and
