April 10—After a stormy journey through the House and Sen ate, the bill which would permit the State Board of Health to regulate the practice of midwifery and to license midwives was finally approved by the lower house.

It was a counterthrust dealt at the F'rench in the dying stages of the great offensive launched by Joffre between Itheims and the Argonne. There 500.000 men had been battling for weeks on a narrow tront. The French attack, after having canfied German trenches along a low crest to the north Qf SouainC. had been halted; bdt to check the French, the Germans had denuded the rest of their entire front in France of re serves. There'were all too few of these, now that Spring had come and both Eastern »and £ Western fronts were seething ferinientfc of desperate men. The German supreme headquarters was carrying on a gigantic juggling act. tossing forces from east and to west and west to east. .. Napoleon never had to fight on more ttyan ope front, and it was; usu ally on* he chose himself. But here was Germany, having only feeble help from Austria-Hungary, with 5,000.000 Russians In the East, and 2,500,000 French. British and Belgians in the west, to be fought simultaneously on two fronts 1.000 miles apart. This necessity of shutting her forces back and forth, made it almost im possible for Germany to conceal pre parations for major operations from Allied agents. Information of enor mous importance came to Allied head quarters from spies in Belgium whose sole work was to watch trains bo by. The composition of the trains told significant stories. “Isolated movements of troops trains were relatively unimportant, but when, a movement continued for two ot three weeks without a break and at an increased number of con stituted units per day, then it was a cirar sirm that a concentration for an offensive was on Itayway. : i . ..., - tr aim ahdl i eying drafts had equal signifh mci > • -*' ■* train? were always siopprd before an approaching offensive; they ceased, allied officer? knew someth was brewing. Drafts were a valuable indication as to the losses suffered by the Germans; the approximate ages of the men were always carefully not ed. as it enabled Allies to estimate the reserve man power left in Germany. TODAY’S YESTERDAYS April 10, 1778 —William Hazlitt was born into a minister’s family in Maid stone, England, dittoed to become an essayist of enduring charm and a “Fool of Love. ” When he war- 43 he went to live in the house, in London, of a tailor named Walker. There he wrote ideas for his essays on the walls of his room and sought to win the landlord’s round faced, pale-complected daughter Sa rah. She made him miserable and she made him famous, for the essays he wrote concerning his-futile enslave ment by her charm and coquetry be came classics. On his knee, when there were no household chores to do, she would sit for hours and hours, while Hazlitt poured out his heart. She was bored, but she retained enough of what he said to mimic him in the kitchen for the amusement of her sister Betsy, who often peeked and listened at the keyhole of Hazlitt's room. When he proposed to her in lines taken from Troilus and Cressida, she giggled! she is remembered today only be cause azlitt made a fool of himself over her.

Applications for rural rehabilitation will originate through the ERA So cial Service Division. Upon recom mendation the application will be re i erred to the rehabilitation division f<>r acceptance and classification. I'hose applications which cannot be accepted will be returned to the oS cia! Service Divisy>n. T£jon acceptance, a first step will be an attempt to make adjustment of any debts pending against the client, especiaUf- any public debts. These adjustments will be carried out in cooperation with the Debt Adjust ment Commission. Preference will be given to rehabili tation on land already rented or lcas |ed by the family. Where land is not available, land wilj he acquired by rental, lease, and option where pos sible. and purchase where advantag eous. cash rentals being paid , only where the AAA has established rights. All types of goods will necessarily have to be advanced to some clients and subsistence goods to others. The client must demonstrate his ability to pay back subsistence goods before title to capital goods is given him. Many clie.’ts will require only capital goods. Adequate housing will receive em phasis in the rehabilitation effort. The housing program will fall into three division. First, houses will be repaired or rebuilt on land owned by the clients. Second, houses will be repaired or built on land that can be leased with an option to buy. Third, houses will be repaired and built in and around work centers, and rural industrial communities, these houses to be owned and controlled by th*» corporation.

Besides the regular supervision of rural re habilitation supervfsors, farm and home managers, neighborhood groups will be given special schooling thro ugh meetings conducted by county agricultural agents, home demonstra tion agents, as well, as by teachers of vocational agriculture and home eco nomics. Participation in a general agricul tural program promoted by the State Agricultural College for the promo tion of special crops in the five dif ferent agricultural regions of the State, is also part of the rural re habilitation plan. It is believed that it will be possible for rural rehabili tation clients to become definitely a part of this general program. Through the forestry service and the Land Policy Commission program for sub-marginal lands, the Rural Re habilitation Prograjn is promised a definite field for work; projects which ate themselves self-liquidating as far as the corporation’s, funds are con cerned. • What Do You know About North Carolina?
