attended ~ some 200 or more parents
and teachers.
Mr. Erwin declared the church and
the schools must unite to save Amer
icas free institutions if they are not
to be engulfed in the "isms" and
dogmas now sweeping the world. He
called on the group to ''see to it that
the boys and girls of the State get
their rights in the training of youth.

AWAIT DEVELOPMENTS
Backing Out by Virginia Raises New
Problem and Governor Calls
Further Conference at
Raleigh
AWAIT DEVELOPMENTS

Plans for launching the voluntary
tobacco crop control sign-up for 1896
were held UP in this county today
pending further instructions from
Governor J. C.. B. Ehringhaus and the
central State committee following the
action of Virginia in declining to go
in with the voluntary program.
Contracts to be used in the sign-up
as agreed upon at conferences last
week in Raleigh have been received
at the office of J. w. Sandrs, county
agent, and workers were ready to
take the field in the campaign. But
this program was deferred pending
developments at Raleigh, where Gov
ernor Ehringhaus had called the COM
mittee together to meet with him to-
day to consider the situation arising
from the turn of events in Virginia.
Mr.. Sanders spent Monday and Tues
day in Raleigh at a meeting at State
College, where the new government
soil conservation program was dis
cussed in every detail. He said today
there was a possibility this Federal
program might have to be resorted to
as a crop control measure for 1886
and that if it were a sign-up cam
paign would be necessary just the
same 1t would be voluntary, but grow
ers would be paid gy Federal funds
money crops and thus bringing about
a program of control and restriction
on the 1886 paintings.

N. f. CONGREGATION
PLANS A PARSONAGE
Committee Gets Ready To
Proceed With New Home
For the Pastor

Plans for building a new parsonage
for their pastor were approved by the
congregation of the First Methodist
church last Sunday morning and &
committee was appointed to arrange
for the solicitation of funds and for
the pushing of the building work. I.
B. Rose, Jr chairman of the churchs
board Of stewards, was made chair
mar of the building program.
Inc congregation was said to nave
been agreed on the program in gen
oral, and plans presented to the
church conference meeting, which fol-
lowed the Sunday morning service
contemplated the liquidation of GER
tain current obligations and the build
ing of the parsonage with a dect re-
naming of only $4,000, which it was
proposed be handled through build
ing and loan facilities.
The church late in 1884 raised some
$50 900 to lift a huge debt On the
church building itself, one of the
finest cdifices Of any Methodist con-
gregation in the State in a smaller
city, but had left minor obligations
involving the parsonage and other
causes. The present program is to
handle these matters in a definite
way, and at the same time provide a
modern residence for the pastor of
the church.

has been to train boys and girls for
college, but only small percent OF
them ever get there, and this was the
basis of his plea for the teaching OF
vocational subjects in the schools. Of
course, it costs money, but money
spent in that way is better applied
than in dealing with crime. He ap-
pealed passionately for the training OF
men and women to safeguard Amer
lea and American institutions against
the "isms" of Russia, Italy and Ger
many. The problem of the church and
the schools is to step into this breach
to save the American civilization. He
declared it is patriotism now to save
the cause of the country's social in

Aces. If the declarer wins the first
trick at no trumps with his Ace,
you may be reasonably certain
that he also holds the K in re-
serve. Whereas winning the first
trick with the K raises the ques-
ton of whether he dare not win
with a poorly guarded K. A no
trump lead of @ may be either
from Ohio, or from A-Q-J. It
cannot be from K-Q-J. If declarer

both defenders know that declar-
er also holds the K. The. leader
cannot hold it, and his partner
should everyday the @ with the
K, in nearly all cases.
The j may be led against no
trump from three holdings: ALTO,
K-J-10 Or J-10-9. If the leaders
partner has an honor he should
play it, unless required to later on
capture a high card in dummy,
thar the leader cannot take, If the
honor is used to cover. If declarer
wins with the Ace, he informs both
defenders that he still holds both
K and Q, but if he wins with the
Q, leaders partner cannot tell
what declarer still holds. If sec
ond lead from the left is won by
declarer's K or Ace, the leaders
partner cannot then tell whether
declarer has or has not the missing
high honor,

Dor until the age Of 18 comes in
the same category with the new
understanding of their problems
which has been inculcated into
school work.
In the realm of physical disease,
as we pointed out last week, one
great advantage is the recognition
that tuberculosis is liable to begin
at these periods, and by proper eX-
animation Of large groups of young
people in school, those who have
a tendency in this direction are
segregated and treated SO that the
tendency is not allowed to develop.
We can look forward to the time
when the great battle Of tubercu-
losis will occur in this early ado
lescent period rather than where
it has been fought at the ages
from 20 to 35.
In childhood and adolescence,
also, every precaution should be
taken to avoid rheumatism. Ex-
cept in the North Atlantic and Ca
madam border states this disease is
not very frequent in the United
States. It is a disease Of winter,
and proper protection against cold
and wet will do much to prevent
an attack. The danger is, OF
course, not so much the rheuma-
tism itself, as the subsequent eff
fects on the heart which may, be
carried from adolescence into mid
die age. For that reason, when an
attack does occur, a long period
of convalescence of six weeks to
two months should be observed in
order that minimum. amount Of
damage is left on the heart struc-
ture.
