A determined effort on the part of
merchants and citizens of the city is
being made in an effort t have a
home loan bank locate in Salisbury.
There will be twelve regional banks
established by a board and representa-
t;ves of Salisbury and other cities of
the state met in Greensboro Tuesday
to make an effort that a bank be To-
Gated in North Carolina. If the con-
ference is successful, the various cities
will launch independent campaigns in
an effort to have the bank locate in
their own area.
President Hoover signed the home
loan bank bill Tuesday and thereby
made the bill a law. By the president
signing, millions will be made avail
able for home owners and building
and loan associations, savings banks,
cooperative banks, homestead ascot
atoms and insurance companies.

Variety Of Cats Hobby
of Woman In Illinois

Leroy, IlL-Cats and kittens of all
colors and a variety Of breeds, all of
whom are, strangely enough, guarded
by a dog, are the hobby of Miss Clara
Crumbaugh, Of this city. She started
her collection of felines five years ago,
when a stray cat that wandered into
her yard was adopted as a family pet.
The cats have a special building in
which to live and the guard is a
giant police dog. Some of the cats are
registered and have won two prizes,
others are nondescript.
When feeding time comes, Miss
Crumbaugh makes an effort to see
that each cat is fed. If some are alb
sent at the time, powder is sprinkled
on the backs of those that are fed SO
that the unfed may be separated later
for their share of feed.

TARIFF SOUGHT TO
HELP SITUATION
IN THE SOUTH
Duty Free Product Has
Made Inroads In Textile
Industry. Statement
Says.

If jute and lutte products had not
made such inroads upon cotton's>le-
gitimate and rightful markets, it is
reasonable to say that the cotton tex
tile industry would have already led
oher industries out Of the depression,
according to a statement issued at the
office of the American Cotton Man
ufacturers' association.
The association is working for an
adequate tariff on ute and jute pro-
ducts with the belief that this is nee
essary for the south's economic safe
ty. 1t is pointed out in the statement
that, with the cos Of local, state and
national governments constantly
mounting, until between one-fourth
and one-third of the national income
is required for taxes, the farmer can
not raise cotton and hope to sell it at
a fair price when it has to compete
with a practically dutyfree product.
1t is declared that the government
should not so handicap the southern
farmer in his struggle for economic
independAace and that the south's &C.
onomic welfare is at stake in the de-
mand for this tariff.
The statement continues by calling
attention to the fact that a tariff on
Jute and jute products would raise a
certain moun of revenue for the
federal government and that the rev.
thus received would tend to re-
duce the need for increased federal
taxation.
To place an adequate tariff on jute
and jute products in order to make it
competitive with cotton would place
no undue hardship upon those people
who at the present are using lutte
than cotton, since the cotton
manufacturers have SO developed the

ecutive secretary of Catawba college,
the fall term will begin on September

Harrisburg, Pa. On October IS, 1881,
DR.. Omwake was requested to assume
the presidency of Catawba College.
He brings to this duty years rich in
experience, a knowledge of affairs that
is vital to the progress and growth of
Catawba College. The Institution has
most modern buildings, adequately
equipped and a rural air conducive to
good morals and studious habits.
Catawba College is under the sup
ervision of Reformed Church in the
United States, and its many friends
are optimistic that DR.. Omwake is
the right gentleman for this respon-
slble position. He impresses the writer
as having tact and charm of
united with firmness of character that
are most desirable.
If one wants people to follow the
highway of the right, it is necessary to
let the sunlight of intelligence fall
upon that highway. We believe that
n the years to come, DR.. Omwake
will have demonstrated that Catawba
and the State of North Caro-
ina were fortunate in having him as
ume the Presidency of Catawba COL
eye.

 T was informed I was the sec- ond white woman to traverse the Telegraph Line trail. I slept in home cabins whenever possible Virtually all of them are tenanted by field mice They cuddle in the beds. The little creatures worried ne the first night I spent in a home cabin, but afterwards paid no attention to them
 Consideration and Courtesy
 T was treated with considera- tion and courtesy by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and De- minion Telegraph linemen. The police and the linemen kept track of my progress, so as to be aware that was making my appointed goals in safety. After I had left Home Cabin No. 9 and did ncs reach Echo Lake two linemen started to look for me. After sep arately searching for me cn each side of the trail for days, they took to the river, one going up and the other down, and thus came across me.
 The linemen use dogs for pack animals in summer. The men very kindly put the extra clothes I carried and my food on the dogs, which favor greatly appreciated you may be sure

They evincedl some curios- ity in me, as I did in them. Later the same day, I was close to a bull moose, which gave me a cur sory glance and continued on his way.

The third climbed several feet up a tree, and chung to it by hugging it with his paws, He was cute and quite close to me. I stopped to look at him. Forthwith the mother bear - a black bear-came toward us from out of the brush. The cub slid down from the tree, joined the mother and they both went away.
 At another time, saw an adult black bear a short distance off the road. The animal paid no atten- ton to me.
 In the widest part of the route, namely, from Hazelton to Telegraph Greek I saw no wild life at all.

after having lost my way, I mo- ticed fresh bear tracks one morn ing. Somehow they didn't fright en me. Although the time was August, my chief concern was keeping warm nights and adhering to my self-imposed food rations. Getting lost was my worst exper- sence. I got off the trail between Lineman's Cabin No. g and Echo Lake on the Dominion Telegraph Line. When I realized could net recover the trail, I made my way through dense underbrush and small timber to a river, which proved to be the Bell-Hving I wadsd to my waist to a bar. I de- termined to establish it as my headquarters from which to make expeditioalary efforts to find the trail or to remain until was discovered by telegraph linemen, who, l was convinced, would search for me.
 Resources Were Meagre
 My resources consisted of six matches, a box and half of raiS- ins, pound of da5es-emergen rations that I always carried with me-and the clothes wore The matches provided me fires until the night of my fifth day on the bar. My last match was used to light afire that planned to keep burning. The wind blew it out. I had no fire that night. I felt the cold. My food carefully .ra- tioned so that had some left when was found the morning cd the sixth day Every day after I reached the bar. had waded to my waist to the bank of the river and made unavailing reach for the trail.
