There is little to report from
the war. "The fighting contin
ues without decisive results"
about tells the whole story.
?
How much North Carolina
and Georgia cotton will the
State buy at 10 cents when the
?35,000,000 are ready for use.
The cotton seed market continues
to decline, which shows
again the folly of marketing any
commodity in too short a time.
The farmers have been selling
their seed, to pay expenses while
they hold cotton, and this is the
result. There is no good reason
why seed should drop so low,
however, for cotton seed have
come to be distinctively a food
product. Other food products
are high.
There seems to be a spirit of
cooperation among trustees,
teachers and patrons in the
school here this year that has not
been noticed before. The teachers
are insisting upon good deportment
and hard work and the
trustees and patrons are backing
them up in it. Flogging has
been necessary in several instances,
and it has been promptl>
and vigorously administered. In
most cases the parents side with
the teachers, and the result is a
big improvement in the general
deportment of the student body.
These lessons the children are
now learning will prove the
most beneficial of any they may
and it is highly essential that the
lessons of obedience and subjec
tion to authority be learned
thoroughly while their beings

the parents want their children
to be decent, law-abiding citizens
they should continue to stand
with the teachers, that the dis
cipline of the school may be a
correcting influence in the community.
The Fighting Goes On
London, Oct. 26.?10 pr'm.?
The battle for the Straits of
Dover, one of the most sangui
nary of the war, is continuing
with unabated fury, but thus far
without eitherside gaining decided
advantage.
The Germans, who at terrible
cost in life, last Saturday, crossed
the Yser Canal between Nieu

report of German General Head

Lille, Labasse and Arras. The
opposing armies are delivering
fierce attacks, gaining or losing
a few miles or less of ground
with sacrifices in life that are
appalling. The whole country-,
side is fairly reeking with the
blood of thousands of killed or
wounded.
/ In thn lAtun

which the country is dotted and
most of which have been laid in
ruins by the artillery, most desperate
fighting has occurred
when the cavalry and infantry;
came into contact. Hoth sides'
speak of heavy losses thev have
imposed on their adversaries, but
say nothing of their own dead or
wounded, whose places are
being filled with reinforcements.

in 1913 valued at $3,739,6%,
an increase of $370,773 over 1912,
according to a statement prepar- w
ed by the United States Geotogical
Survey in cooperation with
the State Survey. North Caroilina
is the leading producer of ^
mica in the United States. The
white muscovite mica produced
in North Carolina is highly prized
for its transpare*""v and is Q
generally recognized as the
standard mica of the country, -j
equal to "any other in the mar- g)
ket It is especially adapted for ^
the manufacture of gas lamp ^
chimneys and lamp shades and
for glazing heating stoves. Only Q
clear mica of good grade and
perfect cleavage is hspH in
? ? g
glazing trade. Smaller sizes are a
used in the manufacture of elec- q
trical apparatus, and scrap mica ^
is ground and sold for use in the ^
manufacture of lubricants, wall Q
paper, etc. The mica produced
in North Carolina in 1913 was a
valued at $267,913, against $256,549
in 1912. Q
Other mineral products of the
State are monazite, clay pro- e
ducts, granite, limestone, marble, S
sandstone, gold copper, lead, silver
zinc,/iron, talc, barytes, feld- ^
spar, abrasive garnet, gems, lime, i
millstones, mineral waters, sand ^

gures that we said represented
le amount spent in one year for
hiskey, wine and beer. This
ould pay our National debt

easury. Would educate 860,)0
men and women, or pay all
xpenses at college for four
ears.
Another item taken from one
f our associational reports
takes us blush with shame,
"hat is that South Carolina
tands so near the bottom, only
vo states lower in number of
hildren attending school. And
>west of all in average number
