Result of Terracins

Farmers have had the value of
terracing, along with other i'm
proved farming methods, brought
home to them forcefully by the war
and its requirements.
Better yields result when sloping
lands are terraced to control ero-
sion and conserve moisture. partic-
ularly when supplemented by the
best cropping practices. The type
of soil, degree Of slope and amount
of water to be handled determines
the type Of terrace best suited.

Backing Domestic Court

Among legislative measures needed
for New Hanover county, an enabling
act for setting up a court of domestic
relations appears to be assured, follow
ing a conference of the city and the
county attorneys, w. B. Campbell and
Marsden Bellamy respectively, with Sem
ator Alton B. Lennon and Assemblyman
R. M. Kermon.
These legislators assured Mr.. Camp
bell and Mr.. Bellamy that. they
will introduce the bills necessary to
pave the way for the court, and MIR.
Kermon has let it be known that he is
prepared to go beyond the mere enabl-
ing act and introduce a bill to set up
the court machinery.
The decision of Senator Lennon and
Assemblyman Kermon is to be COM
mended. They may be expected to press
for the legislatures approval without
delay, when the session opens next
month. They have taken the proper
step and deserve public support.

Red Cross In New Home

Fulfilling a longfelt want, the Will
mington chapter Of the American Red
Cross is at last in it's own home, with
all branches assembled under the one
roof. The transfer of files and other
records from the Custom House and
other repositories is complete. The tele-
phones are installed.
While there is considerable work still
to be done to make new quarters COM
Portable and shipshape, all departments
are operating.
The home is at Ali South Front
street. The phone number is 2-2683.
AS emphasized when this property
was purchased, the chapter will function
with ven more efficiency than in the
past, because of the convenience both
the chapter staff and the persons served
will enjoy by being located at a single
address. The home service de-
partment, the home nursing classes, the
production room, the motor corps -
there is room for them all.
Every branch can operate in emer-
ncy or in the regular services the
Red Cross performs, at this centralized
headquarters.
Despite the hard work of moving, this
is a happy day for the chapter.

state tournament, and / thoroughly
enjoyed my visit in this quaint ola
city. At least IS states were rep
resented at the tournament. A trip
TO various tournaments around the
country would convince anyone
that bridge is played equally well
everywhere today.
For example, holders OF the "orlo
championship Masters team-ot-
four title, Mrs. Margaret Wagar,

Hodges, and Sol Morgan reached
the finals in the team-of-four event
at New Orleans, but were defeated
by 10 points by a New Orleans team
consisting of Julius Rosenblum.
DR.. Richard Greene, Walter Her

asked the New Orleans team for
a hand from the match, they in
sisted that the most interesting
hand was one made by Bill Christ

Christian (South) won the open

ten of diamonds, then cashed three
rounds of hearts, winning the last
one in dummy.
He led a small club and won
with the ace, cashed the king OF

clubs. Dummy had the ace-jack
of diamonds and the king-eight OF
clubs.
East had to let the spades go
and try to keep the queen-nine

At this point Christian went ove1
to dummy with the king OF

then the eight of clubs was led,
throwing East in and forcing him
to lead away from his queen-nine

If West had opened the ace of
spades and continued with the
queen, Christian would have had
no problem. He would have won
the second spade with the king,

with the king Of hearts, picked up
he adverse trumps and claimed

Give. That Others May Live

When the budget was set for the New
Hanover County Health and Tubercu-
losis Association, the amount-$lO,-
OOO-was the minimum on which the
association could hope to function with
success.
Success in the anti-tuberculosis war
is measured by the number of incipient
cases discovered and treated and the
number of more advanced cases that
can be arrested at home or, to a very
limited extent, removed to a state sana-
forum.
Unless this work can be carried out
to the fullest extent, the association
cannot count it's efforts fully success
full. Any failure to have the designated
$4,000 required for it's operation OBJ
viously means partial failure.
Because tuberculosis respects no
ones position in society but attacks
with complete impartiality where con-
ditions are favorable, failure for the
association could all too easily result
in a member of your own beloved fami-
ly falling victim to it and because it's
stealthy arrival goes undetected through
curtailment of the associations service
finally becomes bed-ridden and possibly
dies.
The missing $1,000 which has not
been contributed for the associations
work in the coming year could, in fact,
bring tragedy into your home.
In light of this fact, and it cannot
be disputed, can you afford to withhold
the small contribution that would lessen
the probability Of tuberculosis entering
your door?

of a group of reporters interview
ing General William Booth, of the
Salvation Army. in the home OF
his Boston host. l had a page story
to write, and so asked many ques-
tons. We found the general, who
as usual, wore his uniform with
blood and Fire inscribed across
his tunic, rather austere and eager
to shorten the interview.
Later, I learned that it was on
that very night that the split came
between the general and his son
Ballington, which resulted in
the formation of the Volunteers of
America. All unknown to his news
paper visitors, the general was 60
ing through the rending of the
strongest human ties, and a crisis
for his army. And we wondered why
he vas not more jovial!

An Eventful Year


With 1916 in next to it's last day, it
is interesting to note major changes IN
world affairs that transpired during
it's life.
It saw the drafting of peace treaties,
the ousting and recall of kings, indie
pendent governments set up.
Agreements were reached on peace
treaties for Italy, Hungary, Romania,
Bulgaria, and Finland. Austrian and
German discussions we're put off until
1947.
United Nations trusteeships were
approved for eight former League OF
Nations mandates: the Australian-held
territory in New Guinea, New Zealand's
in western Samoa, the four African
mandates of Togoland and Cameroons
which are divided between France and
Great Britain, the British-controlled
area of %Tanganyika, and Belgium's
Ruanda Urundi.
Draft treaty terms awarded Yugo-
slavia most Of the Istrian peninsula,
with the former Italian city of Trieste
to be made a Free Territory" under
United Nations authority.
Italy also loses to France small sec
lions along their Alpine frontier, and
to Greece, the Dodecanese Islands. The
Italians, however, are to keep the south
Tyrol area, claimed by Austria, while
final decision on their African colonies
has been postponed to next year.
Hungary gives Czechoslovakia a bit
of border land around Bradshaw, and
in the northeast loses to Romania the
long-contested region of Pennsylvania,
a gift from the Axis to Hungary in
1910.
Romania leaves with Bulgaria the
south Dobruja area along the lower
Danube, and confirms possession by the
Soviet Union of Bessarabia and Buco-
VIVA
To the Russians go Finland's far
north territory and port of Petsamo,
as we'll as a 50-year lease on Porkkala
Udd peninsula for a Soviet naval base
on the Gulf of Finland.
Europe saw the abdication of Victor
Emmanuel, followed by the establish
ment of an Italian republic. King
George II of Greece returned to his
throne. Bulgaria, Albania, and Hungary
voted to replace their former monarchies
by republics.
Under direction of General Mac
Arthur, the Supreme Commander for the
Allied Powers, the Japanese emperor
was shorn of power and the nations
constitution revised along western lines.
In a general election women voted for
the first time.
The lon%g-scheduled independence of
the Philippines was celebrated on july
o1y
Colonial rule over the Netherlands
Indies was changed by recognition, in
fact, of the Indonesian Republic of
Java, Madeira, and Sumatra, and the
signing of preliminary agreements look
ing toward creation of a United States
of %Indonesia, to be linked with the
Netherlands.
India was offered full independence
by Great Britain, although conflicting
Hindu and Moslem groups failed to
reach accord on a united government.
Burma later was offered freedom on
the same terms.
