exhibitions ever staged of the grow
ing intelligence of Big Business in its
relations to the man in the street.
Gone was the pompous, autocratic at
mosphere so usually associated with
industrial tycoons. "Boss" Referring
rubbed elbows in the crowd. Lectur-
ers spoke lightly but informatively as
they told how things once considered
luxuries are now regarded as common
place necessities. The crowds were
given an insight into greater luxuries
in store"
According to an advertisement Cen
eral Motors runs in the papers after
the big silver trucks have packed up
their shows and disappeared over the
far horizon "the first purpose of the
Parade of Progress is to interest, to
enlighten, to entertain. Through that
purpose we hope to make clear the
processes through which industry per-
forms it's share of the worlds work.
But parades must sooner or later
reach their end. Progress is some
thing that can never halt.
"That is why we hope that some
where we set a boy to dreaming-and
set him on a road of usefulness and
service to himself, his country and his
fellow men,"
Can't you see among the exhibition
visitors youngsters who found their
imaginations stirred, who caught the
glimmerings of a vision, who started
in pursuit Of that vision by turning
to their home chemistry sets, their
construction toys, their tool kits and
workbenches?

Many a work which is carried

fact that this is OF benefit to your

Il Hidden Menace
To Shipping

The incredible destruction of
shipping. principally Allied and
rutral. which has taken place in
the early months of the war, has
military observers all over the
world scratching their heads. No
ore, apparently, thought sinkings
would reach such total Today
the mine and the UBoat, rather
than the airplane and the tank
and the cannon, are the most ef-
fective instruments of warfare
OF the two, the mine has proven
by far the most effective-U-Boat
sinkings are now far in the minori-
ty. The German surprise techni-
que OF releasing mines from sub
marines, and smaller, parachute
equipped mines from airplanies,
HIS proven extraordinarily success
ful. 1t is obviously in violation of
International law. But it takes a
strong idealist today to believe
uat a blockaded nation fighting
fer existence is going to pay more
than lip service to that code.
The rumor that the Germans
have perfected some magnetic de-
wee which attracts mines to ships
passing by some distance away. is
discounted 100 per cent by Ameri-
can scientists, for various techni-
cal reasons. Far more likely is
the assumption that the seas have
been literally sttewn with free
mines, which makes q knowledge
of planned mine field next to use
les to ships.
la addition, it is believed British
mines have broken during storms
from their fields and are also
floating about freely, a hidden
menace to all shipping.
How TO clear the seas when war
Is over seems to be a potential
problem that no one has yet been
allie to answer.

so dense as to call for thinning in
order to assure satisfactory growth
of timber, the Forest Products
Laboratory point out. The plant
ing and growing of trees especially
for the Christmas-tree market is
also pradticed. In northern New
England a large part of the trees
are from those that have sprung
up in pastures. 1t is estimated that
10 million Christmas trees are sold
annually in the United States. At
All average price of 10 cents each
to the producer, their contribution
to rural income may be reckoned
at one million dollars.
A vast and undetermined volume
OF decorative foliage and boughs
also moves to the Christmas mar
ket. Sprigs of evergreens from
nearly all parts of the country,
magnolia and mistletoe from the
South, holly and mountain-laurel,
from the East, Christmasberry,
Oregon hollygrape, and salal from
the West Coastal go to make
UP veritable flood of greenery at
holiday time. All these products
CT the forest not only add their
decoration and cheerfulness to the
holiday season but add consider
ably to the financial condition Of
the thousands of people who spend
their time in the woods collecting
them.

the ls39 year, with truck sales up
577 per cent over last year and
used car sales up 1879 per cent.
The 1858 figure for November
10 is 2,916 sales greater than the

STUDY SHOWS PUPILS
+. NEED BUDGET ADVICE

Durham, Sept. ia study of the
expenditures of school children,
made by H. Carleton Hess, of Sones-
town, Pa, student in the Duke
university graduate school of arts
and sciences, indicates there is little
that is free connected with the So
called "free" public school.
Gathering material for masters
thesis, Hess studied the expenditures
of pupils from the seventh to twelfth
grades in northeastern Pennsyl-
vania school, Cooperating with the
investigator, the pupils recorded their
expenditures-everything from extra
pencils to graduating clothes-and
turned them over to him.
. Hess found that girls spend more
than boys, and pupils in the twelfth
grade spend more than those in any
of the other five grades studied. A
surprising discovery was that pupils
expenditures had no relationship to
the incomes of their parents.

County Agents in
State Standing By
To Aid In Crisis

I College Station, Raleigh, Sept. Is.
County farm agents of the State
College Extension Service in affect
ed counties have been ordered TO
stand by to render every possible as
sistance in the present tobacco crisis,
John w. Goodman, assistant direc-
tor, said today.
"Just what part the extension
agent will play in the situation, we
do not as yet know, Goodman said.
"but because of the gravity of the
problem, we do know the agent will
be of great assistance to farm people
at this time"
Planning meetings at which State
College Extension specialists and
administrative officers were to map
out county plans for the coming
year with the agents have been cam
celled. Only after the present situa-
ton clears up or the outcome be-
cofes apparent will the planning
meetings be resumed.

This action was taken to keep
prices from nose-diving to new low
