THE WORLD WAR DAY-BY-DAY
Nov. 30, 1914 Exactly two years
before, Turkey and the Balkan allies
opposing her - Servia, Bulgaria,
Greece and Montenegro—had reached
a preliminary peace agreement. The
agreement was short lived and hosti
lities were resumed until Turkey was
too exhausted to talk about anything
except cutting off slices of Turkey
for her erstwhile dependencies.

THE WORLD WAR
20 YEARS AGO TODAY

Serbian battlefields.
.(I—Jedar; ll—Valievo.)
20 Yeart Ago Today: The Serbian
army suffered a severe reverse and
the loss of the capital, Belgrade.
But it was to quickly recover and
whip the Austrians as completely
at Valievo as it had at Jedar in
August.
Sot “Today it the Day n
The allies when they sat down to
talk Turkey got into a row over divi
sion of the spoils and less than a year
before the World War began, Bulgaria
was at war with Serbia, Greece and
Roumania. The conclusion forced
upon Bulgaria by Britain, France and
Russia was to be dearly paid for by
Bulgaria’s attitude in the World War.
In the Balkan wars Servia was in
vincible: Serbs won back Old Serbia
at Kumanovo; Macedonia at Monas
tir, and captured the Turkish com
mander at Adrianople. In the battle
of Bregalnitza, they had completely
shattered the legend of Bulgarian
invincibility. Again, in the opening
month of the World War, when the
situation of the Allies in the west was
desperate, the Serbians at Jedar had
routed four Austrian army corps and
precipitated the chain of disasters
along the Austrian-Hungai ian lines
which made the original war plan of
the Central Powers untenable.
'But now Serbia was in gravr> pc-il.
The Hindenburg drive had released
several army corps of Austrians in
Galicia and Poland, and these came
South to complete the work of de
stroying the troops of King Peter, who
had for months held the line along
their frontiers. Before the over
whelming force the Serbs had to re
treat. All the cornel of Setbia be
tween the Save and the Diina was
lost. Presently Belgrade fell, the only
conquest of Austria's army in the
entire struggle.
HISTORY UP-TO-DATE
Nov. 30, 1667 —Jonathan Swift was
born in Dublin, four months after
HENDERSON, '(N. C.) DAILY DISPATCH, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1934
the death of his father.
He was destined to publish at 59
the most famous satire ever written,
Gulliver’s Travels. Yet it is consid
ered by many to be less brilliant than
the pastor’s Tale of a Tub written 22
years earlier, an assault on hypocri
sies in religion. “Good God! what
genius I had when I wrote that book”.
Wfis his own exclamation years aft
erward.
Esther Johnson, the Stella of his
famous Journal to Stella was eight
years old when he fell in love with
her. He was 22). They were married
after 27 years of close friendship, and
Swift immediately began “carrying
on” with another woman!
Nov. 30, 1782 —’Great Britain lost
her largest colony.
On the 6th anniversary of General
Lord Howe’s proclamation offering
amnesty to American rebels who laid
down their arms, provisional articles
of peace were signed in Paris by John
Adams, John Jay, Benpamin Franklin
and Henry Laurens, representing the
United States, and Richard Oswald,
representing His Britannic Majesty
George 111. In signing without the
knowledge of the French government
the United States violated its treaty
of alliance.
Nov. 30, 1879 —-Jefferson Davis died
at 51.
A Jefferson Davis was on both
sides of the War of the States!
Like the Jefferson Davis who was
president of the Confederacy, the Jeff
Davis who died on this date was a
graduate of West Point. He was at
Fort Sumter when the war began.
But he chose to fight on the Union
side and rose from Captain to major
general in four years.
YOU'RE WRONG IF YOU
BELIEVE—
Thanksgiving Day always has been
observed in November. It hasn’t.
Earliest Thanksgiving in Massachu
setts Bay Colony was July 20! Once
it was Dec. 11. Also it has been
observed in April and May.
Also you’re wrong if you believe—
“ That Niagara Falls is the greatest
of the world’s cataracts.”—Maude M.
Draper, Lexington, Ky.
It is neither the highest nor the
widest of cataracts!

WOLFPACK EEIS IN
ANOTHEMKOUT
Postponement of Game
Came as Disappointment
To N. C. State Eleven
College Station, Raleigh, Nov. 30
Prevented by rain from meeting Duke
yesterday, the Wolves of State Col
lege expect to get back In practice
togs this afternoon for an unexpect
ed practice as their Thanksgiving
Day game with the Duke Blue Devils
will run off tomorrow.
The kick-off will be at 2 o’clock in
Duke Stadium.
Athletic officials of the two schools
believe a large crowd will turn our
tomorrow whereas on Thursday, be
cause of adverse weather, only a
handful would have been present.
Postponement of the game, how
ever, came as a great disappomtment
to the Wolves who have been trained
to play in mud and rain. Frequently
this fall Coach Hunk Anderson has
had the Wolves stage a regulation
scrimmage in a down pour of rain
just in case of an actual game hav
ing to be played under such condi
tions.
Looking back ovei past games with
Duke the Wolves might well t>e
thankful that the game was postpon
ed. Duke and State met in a mud
battle in 1930 on Riddick Field at
State, and led by Bill Murray, the
Blue-Devils splashed their way to an
18-0 victory.
PANTHERS MAY
FOR NEGRO TITLE
Meet Tarboro for Eastern
Half in Durham Satur
day Minus Regulars
(Reported to the Dispatch.)
Henderson Institute Panthers will
play Tarboro high school at Durham
State College Saturday for the Ne
gro eastern district championship
honors.
The winner of this contest will meet
the western champions a* A. and T.
College, Greensboro, Saturday, Dec.
8 for the State crown. The western
winner has not been decided as yet
as a tie also exists in the west be
tween Greensboro and Gastonia,
which will also be played off this
week.
The local boys have five confer
ence wins and no losses. Tarboro has
six conference wins and no losses. It
is difficult to compare the relative
strength of the two teams as neither
has met a team that the other has
played. The Tarboro outfit is reput
ed as being fast and powerful, hav
ing defeated most of their opponents
by large margins. Coach Gaither s
lads have played a fine brand of ball,
but due to scholastic difficulties, the
local’s reserve strength is weak. The
w lil,therefore, enter the game with
Tarboro favored to win. The locals
have the habit of coming through in
the pinches against tremendous odds.
Bad weather has held up practice
for two days but a light signal drill
was planned for today in the fym.
A large following is expected to go
to Durham Saturday.

Citing Instances of Twins
Who Have Identical Ills
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.
A READER ASKS me whether
there is any evidence to substantiate
the belief that identical twins are
liable to live about the same length
of time, and
““ ~ “—— not accidental. It
Dr. Clendening i s unfair to the
argument to use
the Instance of a twin who is, for
instance, killed in an automobile ac
cident. An attack of pneumonia is
quite as much an accident as an
automobile injury. Even so, twins
are remarkably subject even to the
same infectious diseases.
The father of twins says, “Their
general health is closely alike.
Whenever one of them has an illness
tiie other invariably has the same
within a day or two. Such has been
the case with whooping cough,
chickenpox and measles, also with
Dispatch Advertising Pays
slight bilious attacks, which they
have successively.”
This, of course, is not particularly
remarkable when twins are young,
because they are liable to run
around together and become exposed
to the same diseases. But think of
the case recounted by the French
clinician Trousseau: “I attended
twin brothers so extraordinarily alike
that it was impossible for me to tell
which was which. One of them I
saw at Paris suffering from rheuma
tic ophthalmia. He said to me, ‘At
this instant my brother must be
having ophthalmia like mine.’ He
showed me, a few days afterwards,
a letter just received by him from
his brother who was in Vienna. He
wrote, ‘I have my ophthalmia; you
must be having yours’.”
In Dr. Otto Mohr’s interesting book
on “Heredity and Disease”, lately
published, there is a picture of twins,
both of whom have hernia, one on
the right and one on the left side.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Six pamphlet*

tained by sending 10 cents in coin, for
each, and a self-addressed envelope
stamped with a three-cent stamp,
to Dr. Logan Clendening, in care of

ducing and Gaining,” “Infant Feed
ing,” “Instructions for the Treatment

Relieve Headache
And Quiet Nerves
In Three Minutes
When you have one of those vio
lent, nerve-racking headaches, from
inorganic causes, you can get sooth
ing relief in three minutes with “B.
C.,” a reliable pleasant-to-take re
medy. “B. C.” is prepared by a re
gistered pharmacist, compounded on
a different principle from most re
lief-giving agencies in that it con»
tains several ingredients so blended
and proportioned as to accomplish in
a few minutes what we believe no
one diug formula can do in so short
a time. "B. C.” should also be used
for the relief of muscular aches and
pains, common colds and neuralgia;
for reducing fever and quieting a dis
tressed nervous system without
opiates, narcotics or such habit form
ing drugs. Get “B. C.,” in 10c and
25c packages, wherever drugs are sold.
