C. t ; ?mmmammmmmmammrnmmmm-mmm Exposition of the i Two Carolinas Charlotte; N. C.f Sept. 24.?With the two C&rolinas still sending their i thousands daily to see the vast array < of products home manufacturers have 1 on disply, the Made-in-Carolinas ex- j position ended tonight its second i week. Thursday night will bring it j to a close, and it is now apparent that the attendance will exceed all expec- i tutions. j Including these manufacturers who ] bought display space at the last op- < portunity or arranged to show their < products with others, the exhibitors i number about 250 and more than 3,- ] 000 products are showing, not includ- i ing the several hundred products in ; the display arranged by Dr. Joseph j Hyde Pratt, director of the North j Carolina Geological and Economic ; Survey. Some manufacturers enter- ; ed the exposition in response to the promptings of public spirit, but all ' have seen it develop into a commercial event of recognized tremendous importance. Many thousands of dollars worth of orders, generally from new accounts, have made the exhibits wellpaying investments. Sentiment of the exhibitors evidently is strongly in favor of making the | exposition an annua] two-state event I The exposition officials have been accorded much encouragement since the I announcement of their destination to I do that, increase the company's authorized capital to half a million dollars and erect a magnificent exposition building here. In this connection, President John L. Dabbs declared "we anticipate no difficulty whatever now in carrving out the elaborate plans we have developed for the future of the Made-in-Carolinas Exposition." Attendance is expected to continue at the rate of the past weeks through the closing night, which will be of particularly great interest to Charlotte people. Monday will be Catawba county day and also community sinr day, with Prof. J. Paul Weaver, director of the school of music of the University of North Carolina, leading the singing. Several North Carolina bands will play during the final four days, competing for the $500 in four prizes offered by the exposition. Eats 72 Times Its Own Bulk in 24 Hours | An article entitled "Sixteen-Cylin der Eyes," appearing in the October i number of The American Boy, tellmost entertainingly some of things that the microscope has revealed about those energetic bits of life called microbes. Bacteria, says the article, are the most important of the microbes. These are the tiniest of all vegetables, so light that billions of them do not weight a grain and so minute that 10,000 of the biggest ones would not extend an inch. These are every where. A pin*, of milk contains millions of them, our mouths and nosesare filled with them. Each inhabitant of London it has been calculated, inhales 14,000 of them every hour and they surround us as a dense fog. Each of them divides Into two every half-hour and thus one individual would become millions in a day, if many were not destroyed. The cholera bacillus duplicates in even less time and would become, in 24 hours, millions if most of them were not devoured by other organisms. I These microscopic freatures are vo racious beyond imagination, each of I them assimilating 72 times its own bulk in 24 hours. This is what makes them so valuable in industry, for where they digest they cause chemical changes and these changes are valuable in the jute and flax industries, and in the businesses of tanning they give aroma to tobacco, turn beer into wine, flavor cheese and butter. And evervone knows what the bacteria of yeast will do in making bread or wine. Although most microbes have been called vegetables, they have neither leaves nor roots nor specialized organs. They ocur either as round bodies, rod-shaped bodies or are spiral shaped. Their vitality is marvelous Some have been frozen in ice for 103 days and have come forth as lively as when they went in; others have endured a temperature of 480 degrees F., and have survived after a bath of liquid air. Nor would a pressure of 7,500 pounds injure them. Attention, Confederate Veterans! All the members of Camp John R Giles, U. C. V.

MITCHELL BROS. 1 South Pinckney Street | (Old Meng Stand.) \ i ' . . r * ' **'- i 1 jr* 1 Romantic Ltpre of L South Seas Honolulu, T. H., Sept. 24.?The romantle lure of the south seas has be- jF come so potent throughout the world 1 that the Honolulu chamber of com- . tnerce is faced with an increasingly 13 onerous and embarrassing problem, its officials announced here recently. For inhabitants of the crdss, cold 1 commercial world of the Temperate al Zone desire?and make their desires 1 known in a pile of mail that is increasing constantly with each steamer?to leave their unromantic at- c mosphere and come to Hawaii, the land of music and flowers, where tra- K dition has the golden moon always p full and where a person's life, accordtng to popular belief, consists of loll- S ing on the shaded beach at Waikiki, 01 fanned by the cooling trade winds and a reaching up occasionally to pluck enough fruit from, the overloaded c boughs to afford sustenance. The writers of the last steamer's '' mail ranged from stenographers, educators, chiropodists, ex-jockeys, to schoolboys and countless others. All a emphasized the great sacrifice they would make in coming to the islands. c The only condition they impose about ? the positions they hoped to obtain a was that they be "soft," according 1 to Mrs. E. K. Stone, acting secretary I1 of the chamber. "That's all they want," she added. c "The number of letters containing the same request is increasing with each J iteamer and some drastic measures j' will have to be taken soon to cope with j the situation. It can't go on, or the 1 chamber building will be inundated." s One graduate of four leading uni- v versities, with a long string of de- * grees capped with a "Ph. D.", desired r to come to some local corporation as * an "efficiency educator." 1 Another letter asked whether hemstitching was popular in the islands. 1 If so, the woman desired to transport I * her sewing to Honolulu. A young * man in the backwoods of Maine of- a fered to travel 5,000 milep Hawaii '* to instruct the residents in gher ed- 1 u cation. A girl in Califirnia referred to the s spell that the Hawaiian moon has cast over her and wondered whether she t couldn't help out some business man (' by doing "just a little typing." "Some of the letters show that the * writers have at least a little knowledge about the islands," Mrs. Stone said. "Others are just as farfetched as that written recently by a man in j a small Virginia town. He wanted to know whether there were any nice, warm tropical islands for sale in this vicinity. I answered thj\j; he could j find, without any trouble, a real estate firm that would sell him part of this very island but doubted whether he could even obtain a lease on all of it." j Another, incident illustrating the lure of the tropics concerned a letter that some friends of an army enlisted man stationed here wrote to a t newspaper in Portsmouth, England, signing the private's name without his knowledge. "This is more or less a lonely life for a fellow in Honolulu as white wo- men are scarce," the joking letter 1 read. More than one thousand women in England have written thus far. offering to marry the man, he said recently. The women range in age from 14 to 40, but all have felt the urge of the south seas. The letters are so numerous that postal authorities in San Francisco tie them in bundles of 50 each. The man said: "The truth of the matter ia that I don't want a wife as I can't support one." Meanwhile the letters continue to pour in to this man at the rate of at least 500 every steamer. g Future Dark for Eastern Hemsphere Budapest^ Sept. 5.?The future of the world is decidedly dark for the Eastern Hemisphere, says Professor Henry Marczali, the famous Hungarian historial and philosopher. He told the correspondent that the balance of the financial, economic and labor superiority had shifted to America for years to come. "A few years and Russia wiil be as powerful as it was before the war," ^ he asserted. "The fate of Russia will decide the fate of Europe and perhaps that of the whole world as well. The Germans, hated by the French ^ and mistrusted by the other big powers, will find their natural ally in Russia. And if the difference between America and Japan becomes aggravated, a formidable alliance of Japan, Russia and Germany will soon ^ make the wotld realize that lasting . peace was never farther off the horizon of humanity than in our days. "The greatest power in the world * today is still Great Britain. But in the history of^the world old nations fall and new nations rise to power. England is now attempting to solve the problem which the Roman Empire could not solve?the holding to- ^ gether of half the world under one flag. "If the solution is efficient and In- ~ dia pacified, Ireland reconciled, Eng- * land's hegemony is secure for the next century; if not the hegemony passes to the younger branch of the Anglo-Saxons: the United States."
