ADOPT THE AMENDMENTS
The Record is hopeful that the peo
ple of North Carolina when they go
to the polls on November 7 will cast
thoir ballots in favor of those con
stitutional amendments designed to
eliminate a great raft of special, lo
cal and private legislation.
There is not any reason why the
rest of the counties in North Carolina
should help Catawba's representa
tive pais an act, should he be dis
, o.od .0 do it, to prevent some little
.oy'i wh.te rabb.ts from crossing
.r into some 'other little feNow's
chicken lot. City council can attend
to matters like this. Also the couny
commissioners can be given authority
to say that sawdust shall not be dump
ed into South Fork, or that roosters
must not crow between 9 p. m. and
li.'H) a. m. These things are ridiculous,
f course, but they are no more so
, the great bunch of useless leg-
. .t on that is enacted in Raleigh to
encumber the statute books and to
Tu:H' the people back home.
Under a general act each communi
ty w'll be able to do within reason
able .im'ts that which it desires to do.
Members of the general assembly
will have time to devote their ener
gies to constructive legislation. The
ndividual communities and the state
will be better off.
Whatever e!se the voters of North
Carolina do at the polls, they should
" "Tter their ballots in favor of the
mna;ion of a lot of useless acts of
' ' - eneral assembiy, the mere print
er of which costs the state thous
ands of dollars.
STRAW VOTES
The New York Herald's straw votes
!nd;cate that the people are pretty
'"only divided in the north as between
Wilson and Hughes. In the Hip
the oher day we believe,
""'on pol'ed the greatest
r-ngth.
don't know what straw votes
-d'eate, for so many times people
joke about such things. It is as
sumed that the race will be close,
many Republicans admitting as much.
This is the first presidential year
since we thought Bryan was elected
"n 1896, and couldn't understand why
he wasn't being as how we were
m'ghty youngthat we have been
unab'e to hazard an opinion, that is,
an honest opinion, as to how the con
test will result. It is beyond us, and
it seems to be beyond those men who
make politics a close study.
It looks as if Mr. Wilson at least
will run ahead of his party.
STAR DUST AND COMMON CLAY
There is in every college man some
thing of the Prodigal, of Esau, and
of Raul of the man who sells out

h4 star dust for common clay; there is

IRELAND CULTIVATING
ADDITIONAL ACRES
(By Associated Press)
Dublin, Ireland, Sept. 29. The ef
forts of the Irish department of agri
culture to increase the food supply
have resulted in an addition to over
85,000 acres of land to the area under
cultivation. Instructions have been
sent about the country advising far
mers as to the best means of utilizing
their land, and the growing of catch
crops. . ,
Although Ireland has a flourishing
iinen trade in Belfast it does not, to
my great extend, grow its own flax,
md the department has been endeav
oring to remedy this. Early in Au
gust, 1914, the department issued a
,-nemorandum advising flax-growers
o save flax-seed for their sowing re
tirements the following spring. The
procuring of seed dur'ng the season
"7 1914-15 was attended w'th cons'd
rable difficulties. Upon representa
tions of the department of agricul
ture, facil ties were obtained, through
the intervention of the foreign office,
for the export of seed from Russia
and Holland to this country. Though
'hese supplies helped the flax-growers,
it was insufficient to meet iheir
full requirenrv-.N. A socfety of
flax-growers hi.i been formed, and
arrangements have been made for the
cultivation Of the crop on a more ex
tensive scale.
recruit'ng officers have asked that the
marine corps headquarters. These
minimum weight for recruits in the
south be reduced from 124 to 120
pounds stripped.
"T$ large raw-bonedf southern
er" is seldom seen, the recruiting of
ficers aver, and, while the men of the
south are as sound and fit as the men
of any other section, they are usually
small-boned and light in weight. The
officers point out in their recommenda
tion that some of the best "hikers"
and fighters in the marine corps are
the lean, wiry men from the southland.
A LOVELY CHARITY
The Sorosis in Wilmington is sup
porting an Infant Feeding Station,
where the babies of the poor can be
properly fedv Twenty-tfour babies
were cared for in this way during
July.
Hiere is Christian, charity of the
loveliest kind. This enterprise is of
a sort with the Crane Nursery of the
nun House settlement in unicago.

Rally day in the Sunday scuool and
Harvest home service will be held at

"A Call to Colors," an attractive
service for Rally Day, prepared by

versary oif tJhe; Reformation." The
roll will be called by classes, honors

ed; Miss Mazie Schmidt will recite

yielded her increase, and let the
Keople sing the joy of the "Harvest
ome." The church will be appro
priately decorated and the sermon and
muc's will be in harmony with the
occasion. The public is invited.
HIGH PRICE OF COAL
IS WORRYING ITALY
(By Associated Press.)
Rome, Italy, Sept. 29. The high
cost of living and particularly the
pr'ce of coal is becoming a subject
of grave concern in Italy as another
war winter approaches. Due to con
tinued excessive freight rates by sea
many staple food articles are dearer
in Italy than either France or Eng
land. Despite a special treaty with
England for cfoeaper freghL rates
to be obtained by the loaning of ships;
sugar is selling at 20 cents a pound
and can be bought oniy in small quan
t'ties, for household consumption
from day to day. Coffee is selling
at 50 to 70 cents a pound, according
to errade. Though Italy is a heavy
' producer of wines a table wine that
j once sold at G cents a quart now sens
I for 14 cents and is inferior to the old
6 cents grade. Beer is sold at 14
cents a quart, milk at 10 cents. Good
i but.er is 55 cents a pound.
Coal that before the war sold at
$10 per ton now sells at $50 and the
price may go higher as winter comes.
Last winter it was $30 to $40 per
ton. Italy hopes to import 750,000
tons from England and 250,000 tons
from the Un:ted States for industrial
uses this winter.
HEAD-OFF THAT ALL-WINTER
COUGH
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Most
Effectual.
"I have taken a great many bottles
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
every time it has cured me. I have
found it most effectual for a hacking
cough and for colds. After taking It
a cough always disappears," writes
J. R. Moore, Lost Valley, Ga. Ob
tainable evei-ywhere.
At the first sign of sore throat,
tight chest or stuffed-up head take
