 "Why, sure, I'll sell it." said the lad. ITO help the ants will make me glad. If they will pay just what paid, I think it will be swell"
 And then the little elf broke in, and with 8 very friendly grin, said, T will pay the youngster, and he'll get a profit, too"
 This filled the wee lad with de- light, and soon he ran right out of sight. The ants swarmed round the elf and loudly cried, "Hwray for you!"
 The sugar was placed on the ground and all the strange ants gathered round. "Get axes. Chop it open," one exclaimed in keen de- light.
 Right here," said Dotty, i've will stay, and watch the wee ants chop away" And soon another shouted, What an interesting sight" Copyright, 1885, NEA Service, IncJ

The lad the strange ants had in tow exclaimed, Please make them let me go. I haven't done thing to them. Why should they capture me?'
 "Now, wait" said Scouty. we will find what it's about, if you don't mind. Just don't be fright ened, youngster, cause you're safe as you can be-"
 An ant then said, Well, we'll confess that we got him into this mess. We found him walking down the road, some sugar in his arm.
 "The sugars what we want, and so we rushed right up and told him so. He wouldn't give it to us. Hon. estly, we meant no harm"
 "Why should he hand 1t all to you? 'Twould be a silly thing to do," exclaimed one of the Tinies. "Just what do you want it for?"
 ITO eat, while winter months are here. A great big ant hill is right near. That's where we'd put it" said an ant. we need @ great big store."

MORAL EFFECT Of
MEETING TO HELP!
Mr.. Perry Returns From To-
bacco Conference In
Washington Wednesday

While he said it was hardly pos
sible to point a finger at a definite
and concrete achievement growing
out of the visit of North Carolina Of
ficials and tobacco growers to Wash
ingtQn Wednesday for the AAA to-
bacco conference, B. H. Perry, of Hen
dersony a member Of the committee,
said on his return today that He
thought the fact that there was a bet
ter acquaintance and a better under
standing between all groups interest
ed would produce moral effect that
probably would result in some i'm
provement in prices this season.
Mr.. Perry heard the discussion
about the manner in which the now
famous "parity'' price level is reach
ed, but said there were some discre-
pancies that seemed to exist in the
procedure and which should be re-
ctified. He said it appeared to him
that administration officials were
cordial, but he quite frankly said he
gathered the opinion that the AAA
took the position there was very lft-
tie it could do this season, since
prices were now at the parity level.
Tobacco manufacturers represen-
tatives took the view, Mr.. Perry said,
that whatever adjustment was to be
made was largely a matter for the
growers and the AAA, since prices
being paid were at parity now, or a
little better.
Mr.. Perry felt, however, that prices
would rise shortly, and naturally So
but that the advance would be large
y due to the marketing of better
quafity tobacco, rather than in an ac-
tual increase in prices, grade for

Charlotte, Sept. 27.-Jail sentences
for minor traffic violations may be-
come compulsory if highway manners
are not improved, and Federal regula-
ton may be imposed unless state et-
forts are successful, is the bellef eX-
pressed by Coleman w. Roberts. pres
ideAf of the Carolina Motor Club, in
commenting on North Carolina's
Statewide drivers license law as
safety measure.
North Carolinians will begin soon
to feel the results of the first real
intelligent effort to reduce accidents
upon our highways" Mr.. Roberts
said. 'The new State drivers license
law, which becomes effective Novem-
Der /, backed up by highway patrol
force consisting of 121 men, is GER
tain to make it felt. The careless and
reckless drivers might as we'll begin
to correct their highway manners or
submit to arrest because it is quite
certain with this number of highway
patrolmen devoting 100 per cent of
their time to enforcement of motor
vehicle laws they will apprehend
SreAt number Of those who have been
running loose upon the highways.
This effort, supplemented by the work
Of the various county and municipal
traffic forces, should go long way
towards reducing the tremendous toll
of life which our highways have been
taking.
Cooperation Essential.
"The drivers license law and all
the police forces, however, cannot
completely solve the problem of high
way accidents. There must be instill-
ed in the minds of all those who use
the highways a willingness to coop
crate through the practice of common
courtesy and decency before we can
expect the results so much desired.
1T will be u mistake for automobile
operators to feel that even though
they may be apprehended as a result

Half
OF WCrOWers
Are Signed
Tobacco Farmers In
Vance Expected To
Be Lined Up Prob,
ably by Saturday

over half the tobacco growers j.
Vance county have already signed tb'
four-year AAA tobacco control CON-
tracts for 1868, inclusive, and il i
thought that practically all of than,
will have signed by the end of this
week, j. w. Sanders, county farno
agent and director of AAA crop con,
troll work in this county, said TODAY
Committeeman were put to work in
the field last Tuesday calling on
growers. That was the first time tbo
field forces have been started int
the sign-up campaign this fall. Here
tofore growers have merely been NJ
fered the contracts as they came to
the AAA offices to obtain their al
lotment certificates for 1885, ALLOWING
them to sell their crop.
Mr.. Sanders said that the commit
teemen would be able to see all of
the prospective signers by the end of
this week. 1t was stated by a farmer
at the office today that nearly everv
grower in one tpwnship-Williams
boro-had already signed.
Nearly all tobacco farmers are
readily signing the agreement, but
few are holding back because of ad-
justments in their acreage allotments
which are not satisfactory to them.
In the past two years, Vance coun-
ty growers have signed almost 100
percent on the AAA agreements, and
it is believed that the percentage will
be as high under the new contract as
before While the new agreements
are operative for a period of four
years, provision is made that any
grower So desiring may withdraw at
the end of any one of the years after
complying with the provisions of his
contract.

GA mere comparison of the figures"
said Prof. Payne, docs not tell the
whole story of the increase in the
teacher-pupil load of the school,
Many pupils dropped out early in the
past year, and soon there were about
$50 pupils as the actual number in
school, At the present time we ac-
tually have in school every day 434
pupils. Thus we have about so or per-
haps IS more pupils than were in
school here last year. When one
realizes that these 434 pupils must be
taught by twelve teachers in just
total of ten teaching rooms, it be-
comes evident that the pupils are ter
ribly crowded and that the teachers
have a very high pupil-load per
teacher"
