training
The warning was specifically issued
at the office of Commissioner Dan
Boney when the representative of
this bureau called attention to the
fact that Associated Adiusters of
Milwaukee, Wisconsin," have been
sending out literature in this section.
This particular concern, it was stat
ed, was some time ago cited in fed
eral fraud order for alleged misuse
of the United States mails. The de-
partment did not know what the out
come of the order was, or whether
action on it is still pending.
Under North Carolina regulations
however, every insurance adjuster
must have a licanse-and this license
is granted only upon application of
the adjuster and only when the APP
plication is sought for him by the
company by which he is to be en-
ployed. The Insurance Department
has special form for this applica-
ton, which is signed on one side by
the would be adjuster and on the 9TH
er by the company for which he is to
work
It follows that there cannot be any
independent or free-lance adjusters
in the State. ~
According to the literature sent out
by the Milwaukee concern, it con
ducts an association which trains it's
members to become adjusters in

H. p. Brewster, Texas, gave the
order Edmund Ruffin, 75-yearold
Virginian, fired a mortar in Fort
Johnson, in Charleston harbor. The
ball that hurtled through the black
night set off II years ago today, a
far bloodier conflict than the cur
rent Spanish civil war, and with as
many foreign nationalities involved.
The provisional government at
Montgomery, Alabama, had been cla-
moring for a blow. In Montgomery,
Pryor lately Congressman from Vir-
ginia, told South Carolinians the old
Dominion lowered between the Union
and the Confederacy. "And 1 tell you,
gentlemen, what will put her in the
Southern Confederacy in less than
an hour-strike a blow!" Gilchrist,
member of the Alabama legislature,
cried to the same group: unless you
sprinkle blood in the faces of the
people of Alabama, they will be back
in the old Union in less than 10 days"
South Carolinians, with their plans
and hopes in the balance, telegraph
ed Brig. Gen. Pierre Beauregard, re-
Gently superintendent of West Point,
to strike a blow.
Next day, he had, without loss of
life. No blood was sprinkled in the
faces of the people of Alabama that
day, but enough happened to start
them spilling their own blood. News
papers screamed the story of the at

Amber Is Petrified Gum

Amber is light translucent SUBJ
stance, pale yellow or brownish in
color. 1t is the petrifed gum of
trees of the pine family. 1t is usu-
ally found washed up on the shores
of certain seas, such as the Baltic,
Adriatic, and China. In most cases.
it appears in rounded Jumps up to
ten pounds in weight. The use of
amber for ornaments is very old,
being traced back to the Stone age.
Amber beads, etc., have been found
in prehistoric remains in Switzer-
land, Egypt and Assyria. The Greek
name for amber was "Elektron, -
from which we got our word "Elec-
tricity,' as amber becomes electri-
fed when rubbed. Insects, such
as flies, are often found in Jumps
of amber; they got entangled in the
gum and became fossilized with it.

Names of Things We Eat

The names of the things we eat
have curious derivations. The hum
BILE vegetable, parsley, for instance,
travelled from Greek to Latin, from
Latin to Saxon, and from thence to
its present form. 1t actually has
the same origin as the name Peter
"a rock), for it grew among the
rocks of ancient Rome. Potato is
from the Spanish patata, which, in
turn, says Pearson's London Week
ly Magazine, came from the Hay
tan batata, sweet-tasting type of
yam. The word sweet goes back
to the Sanscrit svad-to taste; and
sugar has also come to us from the
same ancient language, via Per-
sian, Arabic, Spanish and French.
The Sanscrit for sugar was car
kara, which first meant grains Of
sand"

People for Hire

The two hiring fairs at Aberyst-
wyth are p eceded in the mountain
villages by a festival known as the
Parting of the Ways, says London
Tit-Bits Magazine. This terminates
the yearly contracts between farm
ers and their hired hands, and young
men and boys dress as girls and
girls as men. Faces are blackened
and there is much merrymaking
and feasting. Later, at the hiring
fairs which are held beneath the
Aberystwyth town clock, new con-
tracts are entered into. Wages are
not always based on current coin Of
the realm, but on factors such as
porklings, swedes, and potatoes-an
old custom which has survived for
centuries.
