Our Chief Aim
To aid in every way the prosecution Of
the war to complete Victory.
Take Them In

The housing situation has once more reach.
ed an acute stage.
An impression that Camp Davis had been
largely evacuated of personnel apparently has
spread abroad with the result that soldiers
and their wives, coming to Wilmington from
other camp locations, have arrived in large
numbers feeling certain they could secure
homes without difficulty. AS consequence
the USO-Travelers Aid is finding it difficult
to NEE the housing demands of these men
in the armed services and their families.
The most serious aspect of the situation is
the large number of small children who have
been brought here by their parents and whose
most pressing responsibility for this agency
to secure accommodations for them.
Wilmington cannot afford to have mothers
and babies sitting up all night in bus stations
and motel lobbies yet that is exactly what will
happen if relief is not provided over the week
end
1t must not be forgotten TOO that Camp
Lejeune is in an area with extremely limited
housing facilities. The overflow of marines
and their families comes to Wilmington and
adds to the congestion.
That Wilmington is not too well prepared
TO meet these needs, probably relates to the
fact that many people, who have formerly
taken guests into their homes, have been un-
der the misrepresentation that the demand had
decreased There has not been a lack of the
hospitality and the sense OF responsibility that
has always characterized Wilningtons atti-
tude toward the armed forces; rather, has
been lack of the knowledge of the situation.
Many of the men in surrounding camps are
just back from overseas; many will be leav-
ing shortly. 1t is impossible not to sympa-
thize with their desire to be with their fam
lilies. families in Wilmington that do not
have husbands, sons, daughters and other near
relatives in the armed forces are few, in
deed. Their most profound hope must be that
their own loved ones are being cared for in
other parts Of the country. Experience in the
USO-Travelers Aid shows that the people of
Wilmington have never yet failed We trust
that in this time of most serious need they
will help again.

Standardization

Here is an extract from business report
ing bureau: Wide popularity of vitamin prep
rations and sulfa drugs boosted self-medica-
ton drug sales to a record high of $500, 900, 900
in 1913. The Index, quarterly publication Of
New York Trust Company, reports a sales
volume increase of more than So per cen.
since the war began. The survey showed that
one out of every three drug store customers
bought vitamin preparations, accountingfor
vitamin sales of about $500, 100000 per year"
Probably this immense consumption of
vitamins in concentrated form accounts in
some measure for the general Improvement
in public health. But there is an ominous
note in the fact that sulfa drugs are so widely
used in Standardization. The us of sulfa drugs
without a physicians recommendation is
dangerous.

'B0LLES' FIRM
CHANGES NAME

J. Chadbourn Bolles, former
Wilmington resident, who is presi-
dent of Rufus D. Wilson, Incor-
porated, manufacturers of wo.
mems full fashioned hosiery since
1896, announced yesterday that
effective July 81, the firm name of
the company will be changed to
Chadbourn Hosiery Mills, Incor-
po-ated. Bolles stated that the
change was decided upon at re-
cent meeting of the board of di-
rectors and will be approved at
a special meeting of the stock
holders July 10.
Rufus D. Wilson, incorporated,
was founded in 1896 and was head
ed by the late Rufus D. Wilson from
the date its incorporation until
his death in 1898, at which time
Boles became president and gen.
eral manager. In 1899 Bolles pur-
chased the controlling stock in
terest of the company from the
Wilson estate.
The Rufus D. Wilson company
has expanded constantly since it's
inception. In 1912 the company
purchased the Ing'e Full Fash
toned Hosiery Mills, Inc. manu-
facturers of women's full fash
toned hosiery. in Gibsonville, and
in October, 1913, the company ac-

ditioned building in Siler City in
which it is planned to install new
knitting equipment as soon as such
equipment is available.
Including its present subsidiar-
les, the productive capacity Of
the corporation has bore than

They weren't heroic figures as
they moved forward one at a SINE
few seconds apart. You think of
attackers as being savage a n d
bold. These men were hesitant and
cautious. They were really h e
hunters, but they looked like the
hunted. There was confused ex-
citement and grim anxiety in
their faces.
They seemed terribly pathetic to
me. They weren't warriors. They
we're American boys who by mere
chance of fate had wound up with
guns in their hands sneaking UP
a death laden street in a strange
end shattered city in a faraway
country in driving rain. They
were afraid, but it was beyond
their power to quit. They had no
choice
They were good boys. I talked
with them all afternoon as we
sneaked slowly forward along the
mysterious and rubbled street, and
7 know they were good boys.
And even though they aren't
warriors born to the kill, they win
their battles. That's the point.
