 Jackson on the ground. He notified MT. Fleming who was inside paying of one of the shifts. MT. Fleming sent Ernest Dessulniers to aid Noonan and continued with his work.
 Noonan and DeSsulniers carried Jackson into the shop where he re- covered quickly and was able to do his work later.
 Not Certain of Number
 MT. Jackson Is not certain whether one or two men were in on the job. The man who held him up had his face covered with handkerchief but MT. Jackson suspects he had an accomplice as Jackson was struck from behind at the time the man was holding Q gun in his ribs.
 Chief of Police John A. AdaInson and PatrolmAn Wilfred Evon inves- tigated and ofiicer Evon remained at the shop until the last shift was paid of.
 The attempted holdup was the first here in some time and police are determined to capture the per- son or persons involved.

Raleigh, Sept. 9.-The Chapel Hill
meeting at which the Institute of Gov
eminent announced plans for extend
ing it's sphere of activity into the
realm of State government is still the
subject of conversation among State
officials who are unanimous in call
ing it important" and "inspirational."
1.-THE people of the State are for
ever calling for efficient government
ay honest officials, and | think that
the Institute of Government is doing
as much as any other single factor
in getting them just that" said DR..
Carl V. Reynolds, State health officer
in 4 typical comment.
"Any function at which the COVER
nor speaks, at which Supreme Court
Justice (Judge w. A. DcVin) presides,
and at which there are present five
of the seven Supreme Court justices
and more high State officials than
attend a political convention deserve
being called important. The Chapel
Hill session was inSpiriational," con-
tinued Dr. Reynolds.
Albert Coats, director of the In
stiute of Government, explained the
plan by which his organization ex-
poets to make a thorough study of
State government and to prepare
guide books to the duties of each de-
Dartment.
Governor Clyde Hoey stressed the
"Three Fs' Intelligence, Industry
and Integrity demanded of public Of
ficials and declared his confidence
that North Cardinals governmental
functionaries are well endowed with
all these qualities.
Department heads in turn rose and
expressed their desire to cooperate
with the Institute in it's activities.

announced the incident closed. U. S.
secretary of State Lansing, aggrieved
by the willingness of Argentina to tenn
porize with Germany, thereupon made
public message intercepted while be-
ing sent in the Swedish diplomatic
code through the Swedish Legation in
Buenos Aires, to the German Legation
in Stockholm, by Count Luxburg, Ger
man minister. 1t was a request that
certain Argentina steamers should
be spared altogether by submarines or
epurlos versenkt-sunk without a
trace.
Immediately there were anti-Ger-
man riots in Buenos Aires. Within a
week, Count Luxburg was handed his
passports, and both houses of the
Congress voted to break off diplomatic
relations. But an anti-war movement
organized by Strong French, Spanish
and Italian elements in the pOpula-
ton produced a general strike on the
railways and other obstructive meas
ures, which caused President Irigoyen
to force the policy of neutrality to be
maintained.
Nevertheless, spurlos versenkt be-
came another war cry in the countries
fighting Germany.

Development of new uses for agri-
cultural commodities offers some
hope for future improvement in farm
conditions. 1t is one of the most i'm
portant things that the Federal Gov
eminent is doing for the farmer. To
the South it will mean new demands
for farm products, new industries and
new fields of employment. AS the
Government has helped agriculture
through better weather reporting,
insect and pest control and the hand
ling of SURPRISES, it is now strengthen
ing its experiments in finding new
uses for surplus products.
While the value of this large-scale
research cannot be overestimated and
carries benefits that accrue to bust
ness and industry as well as the far
mer, it is a type of Federal activity
that gets too little public attention.
1t is not headline news. Only when
some new and revolutionary discovery
is made do our people generally learn
of the effort made.
President Roosevelt has shown a
high degree of interest in the develop
ment of new uses of southern agricul-
tural products In connection with
pending legislation to establish a re-
gional research laboratory for this pur-
pose, the President suggested that the
states cooperate to the extent of pro-
viding buildings and grounds, saying:
II consider the aims and purposes Of
the project highly meritorious and
would be willing to favor the Federal
Government doing it's part to further
them"
More recently, the Government has
set aside 100000 to be used for ex-
perimentirg with a view &c expanding
the use of cotton and cotton products.
A wide variety and novel fields are
undoubtedly available for the use of
cotton, ranging from wlndbreaks to
control soil, lowing to its use in the
building of highways, which has won
widespread attention.
There is some reason for the belief
that when new farm legislation is
lrafted it will contain provision fol
the establishment Of regional research
laboratories to find new uses for farm
products. Where those laboratories
will be located is yet to be decided,
but whether in North Carolina or els
where the benefits to farmers will be
equal.
There are many possibilities for the
extension of present uses of agricui
.ural products in industry. Already
research is underway that indicate
bat large quantities of sweet potatoes
may be used to manufacture starche
lsed in the textile industry and now
imported. New oils new chemicals
IAN be produced on the farm. Som
chemists say that there is even som
possibility of synthesizing ruoper
rom the forest product turpentine.
Neky indu-t tai products haveins
,pecial properties are expected iron
ne processing of vegetable oils, sncn
IS linseed, soybean and tung oils. IN

ANSWERS

l. Chief Justice Tobias Knight in
1913 was implicated With The famous
pirate, Blackboard, and resigned in
the face of charges. The pirates had
captured ship loaded with sugar and
other commodities. The cargo was
found in Knights barn, covered with
fodder. The chief justice denied the
charges, but a letter was foound on
Blackbeard's body when he was killed
that substantiated the charges.
2. The Legislature of 1897 passed
an act allowing twenty counties to
vote on the proposition = Rowan,
Davie, Surry Yadkin, Chatham, For
syth, Johnston, Davidson, Cleveland,
Castor. Caswell, Rockingham, Lin
coin, Alamance, Wayne, Randolph,
Cabarrus, Richmond, Union and An
son. Two years later Catawba, Alexan-
der, Burke and Guilford were added.

8. Richard H. Smith had sold the
State 1914 bushels of corn at SIS per
bushel, Confederate money. The State
agent had recipted for it and designat
ed it as purchased for the poor in
the Western part of the State" The
gill had not been paid and the COM
missioners of claims in 1868 refused
to recommend it's payment, evidently
'pon the belief that it was a purchase
or war and not "for the poor" and
was barred on Constitutional grounds.
4. The sprice was established at
twenty-five pounds of tobacco for
each gallon of rum. This was repealed
the next year.
5. The Third Provincial Congress
which met at Hillsboro, August 90
1875 authorized an issue of $125,O0O
in bills of credit. The dollar was &C
cepted as the basis, instead of the
English pound. A poll tax of Is cents
on the poll was levied and the death
penalty for counterfeiting was pro-
,ided

dustrial plants are always on the alert
for new chemicals and means of pro-
ducing them. There Is also hope that
the Congress will give H. re and more
attention to projecting the American
market, where oils and chemicals
now being imported can be produced
in this country. Some progress mas
been made and more laboratory WORK
on the part of the vernment VIII
undoubtedly impress additional mem
bers of Congress with the new oppor-
tunities for benefits to the farmer.
There is growing appreciation IN
Congress for the important work be-
ing done by the men and women in
the Federal service who are quietly
going about their work of aiding the
farmer. The work of extension agents.
the men who are out fighting pests
and insects, the crop reporters and
others, has never been fully appre-
ciated. Newer agencies with their
army of press agents have been more
in the limelight.
The great majority of Federal en-
ployees, and state employees as we'll,
who are now engaged in hundreds of
ways in helping the farmer, are men
and women who are making their ac-
tivities their life work. They are i'm
mune to politics. They daily go about
their laboratory and field work quiet
ly and with a degree of interest dis
played by perhaps no other class of
Federal workers.
The present effort to help the far
mer by developing new uses for agri-
cultural products will also give loyal
Federal employees new tools with
which to do a job in which they are
vitality interested.

Two hundred years ago today, Luigi
Gouis) Calvin was born at Bologna,
Italy, and it is a day to be commemo-
rated for in his fifties, Calvin MADE
one of the greatest of scientific dis
cOveries.
It was an accidental discovery. In
skinning frog-legs for a broth for his
sick wife, the anatomy professor, held
the legs with a metal clamp while
cutting the skin with scalpel.
The clamp and scalpel happened to
touch, and Calvin observed something
that most would have taken no note
of--the frog leg twitched. The obser-
want eye must have knowledge back
of it,
Calvin forgot his wife's broth in
his absorption with this phenomenon.
His Investigations of it showed that
the leg with it's attached nerve, form
ed a delicate Indicator of the presence
of electricity. When he was done,
Calvin had discovered animal electri-
city, laid the foundation of electrophy-
siology, and anticipated the invention
of the electric cell (by Volta).

Or anywhere near the hottest, but the
