COMMISSIONERS TO
CONSIDER BUDGETS
Monthly Meeting of County
Board To Be Concerned
With Finances
NO HINT ABOUT RATE
Budget To Be Adopted Probably by
First of August; Valuations
Being Tabulated Result
of Lstings

Budgets and finances in general
w ill be among the chief matters of
business to be considered by the
Vance Board of County Commission
ers when they meet tomorrow in thei,
regular monthly meeting for July.
The meeting was to have been held
today but was deferred on account
of the Independence Day holiday.
All departments have submitted es-
Inmates of their operating costs for
the coming year, and tentative bud
get has been prepared Tor the board
by Miss Dorothea Woodlief, county
accountant.
The board will also probably have
data as to the aggregate valuation of
property as the result of the quadren-
NAL revaluation made in the spring
and the regular annual tax listings
at the time. The tax rate for 1898
will be based on that total, although
there has been no definite hint as
yet as to the probable tax levy for the
new fiscal year.
Liquor store profits will figure in
the calculations Of the commissioners,
but another consideration that is new
and compulsory is levy of taxes
made necessary to supply funds for
the county's part of the social security
cost, it's share being one-fourth, to
match a like amount by the State and
one-half of the total to be furnished
from Federal funds.
While the budget cannot be adopt
ed at tomorrow's meeting, it is ex-
pected to be agreed upon finally to-
ward the end of July or at least early
in August.

independence Day was observed
quietly and without any violent incl
dent due to the holiday in Henderson
today.
There were no automobile accidents
of a serious nature. The only violent
affair of the weekend was the death
of a Negro after his two children had
been choked and were found in Sc
rious condition, but that was not trace
able to the Fourth of July holiday.
Most business in the community SUI
spended for the entire holiday. All
banks took full day off. There was
no rural or city delivery at the post
office, railroad offices were closed.
and virtually all retail establishments
were closed except that drug stores
remained open for part of the day.

Raleigh, July 5-Insects have play
ed havoc with many North Carolina
crops this season because conditions
have been favorable for their develop
ment, according to j. o. Rodwell, ex-
tension entomologist'r at State College.
Probably the heaviest damages has
been done to the tobacco crop in seve-
raj northeastern counties by the flea
beetle. Some authorities have eSti-
mated that the crop will be cut at
least so per cent as result of the
insect attacks.
Studies have revealed that the
chinch bug has appeared in large
numbers this year. Rowell explained

that because of the mild winter, q
large percentage of the pests were
able able to survive and attack small
grain fields. In many cases large por-
lions of the fields were wiped out en-
tirely.
Some of the bugs which were late in
leaving their winter quarters migrated
10 corn instead of small grains, and
the first generation of nymphs was
produced on corn almost as readily as
on small grains.
A corn field located several miles
from the nearest small grain field in
the extreme eastern part of Beaufort
county showed heavy infestation Of
first generation nymphs, eggs, and
overwintered chinch bugs. The same
condition was noticed in other parts
Of the Beaufort and Pitt counties. For
this reason it seems hopeless to try
to protect corn from chinch bug in
jury, Rowell declared.
In several localities in Pitt county in
1886 and this year, the first and Sec
ond paintings of corn were killed by
the hibernated bugs, and old corn
which began to fruit was attacked by
the first generation of bugs in July.

REAL "MALEFACTORS"
Indeed, there are anti-flood experts
who speak in more bitter terms of big
interests which, they assert, for sell
fish reasons oppose measures of gen.
uine flood prevention.
These anti-flood folk insist on a sys-
tenn of upland dams.
Some want little dams across
rivulets; some want huge reservoirs
In either case they promise the de-
velopment of deal of hydro-electric
power. 1t almost necessarily will be
public. Power folk do not like that
idea.
Little dams, in a way, are more
threatening to them than big ones.
SMALL DAMS POTENT
Power generated, say, by IVA oozes
out along the wires.
1t is formidable at the Norris dam,
but has no such potency at distance,
north, south, east or west.
A small local dam, however. can
provide for everything within it's ter
ritory.
And these small local plants can
mock up and cover their whole collec-
tive territories.

to her fine, deep eyes.
He thought philosophically: They
all want something and why
shouldn't they? He would give tc
them if he could and if he liked
them.
He liked Janet Paynter He'd
liked her the first time he keA met
her three weeks before. Liked ii
that she hadn't ever before identi-
fed herself as Joel Paynter's wife
So many Of them had gushed over
him in an effort to interest him in
their sons or husbands. No, Janet
wasn't like that. And she had been
genuinely pleased when he tele-
phoned and asked her to a lesson
and bit Of lunch. Pleased, he
knew, because it was obvious in
her delight in their game.
When their salad came, he asked
her what sort of things she liked
to read. Janet thought, this is the
moment for me to tell him about
1.-THE Dance Was Long,. She
wanted to talk about it sincerely
and she could have done so adroit-
ly since it was not a generally
known idea that Chester was going
to make the picture.
! But she found she couldn't do it.
Somehow it wasn't quite honest
and, even while she realized that,
a small regret was haggling at the
back Of her mind as she thought
of how she had managed the bust
ness Of meeting Chester Cor just
this one reason.
But she couldn't do it when she
realized that the man sitting across
the table from her was enjoying
himself, content in the belief that
it was his company that gave her
pleasure. She realized that he
liked her.
She found herself telling him
about the books she had read be-
fore she came to California, the
books she had discovered in the
public library. Biographies and
books on strange arts and crafts
old novels, revealing PHILOSOPHERS
"How did you find time to read
those things?" he asked interest
edly.
And there was Janet telling him
how empty her life had been dur
ing those months. No, not empty
for as she told him about her lone
ly hours, her eyes told him of her
love for Joel. Janet didn't know
how revealing she was. Naturally
from talking of the books that she
and Joel had read together, Janet
began to talk Of Joel. To tell Ches-
ter what he had done in the the
alter, Of his ambitions.

boy up and see what he's got that's
good enough for that girl.
Chester and Janet became
friends.
He dropped into the little Eng
fish horse one afternoon quite UNI
expectedly. He marched around
the room looking at the prints, he
thumbed through = the music on
Janet's piano. He picked up q
book on her reading table. It was
a copy of 1.-THE Dance Was Long.
1t was a marked copy; bits of pink
paper stuck out untidily from it's
pages, pages where the character,
Jan, was the center of the situa-
ton.
He held the book in his hand and
gave Janet a questioning glance.
His meaning was plain. There was
no reason why Janet should have
felt her face flush. She hadn't ex-
pected him to stop by her house
with racquet he had had restrunx
for her. She hadn't marked the
book for him to see. Nevertheless,
she flushed because now the news
was all over the picture colony that
the cast was being selected for
'"The Dance Was Long,. -
She flushed but nevertheless she
did not answer the question until
he asked her. And then she an.
swered honestly.
She said, "Joel and I have been
reading it. We knew that it was
being cast and we knew that Joel
could play Jan if he had a chance
to do it."
Vernon Chester sighed: So this
was what she wanted.
Janet read his thoughts and with
a great deal of dignity she said,
"Mr. Chester, know what you are
thinking. Partly you are right;
would like to have interested you
in Joel but, if you will please re-
member. I have never said any
thing about it and didn't intend
to. I had no way Of knowing that
you were coming here and the book
is not prop. Joel Joel doesn't

Chester said nothing for a few
minutes. Then:
maybe he doesn't, but he's a
lucky man to have you, Mrs. Payn-
ter"
He left in a few minutes and
went directly to the studio.
He called projection room and

American Boy Introduces
A New Football Game

In the early fall issues of THE
AMERICAN BOY there1l be present
ell the story of new game-six-
man football-fast as professional
football. wide open as basketball,
thrilling as hockey!
The game came to life through the
need of small schools for some sub
stitute for 11-man football, which
was too expensive. Stephen Epler,
a Nebraska graduate student in ath-
letics, developed the game of six
man football to meet this need. In
six-man football anybody can score,
the possibility of injury from mass
plays is minimized. and the game is
open enough for spectators to fol-
low every exciting development.
The new game is a hit. New
schools are taking 1t up every day.
In coming issues THE AMERICAN
BOY tells the world about this prac-
tical new game. In addition, II pre-
sents The American. Boy Official

from the magazine at 20 cents copy.
