A A to MC MONDAY MORNING. JULY 30, 1917. THE NEWS AND OBSERVER 5 POLICE GOING TO UP AGAIN Judge Harris Tells Hack-Driver East Raleigh Soon To Be A Desert DEPARTMENT SILENT Campaign Slated Against City's Women of the Underworld; To Begin About First of August; Police Also To Start Stringent Policy Against Walking Vagrants Although the police department has gone the well-known clam one better and refused indicate by word or even sign what the purpose of the department in in dealing with the women of East Raleigh, there is much to indieate that Chief Barbour and Prosecuting Attorney Briggs intend to rid Raleigh of prostitutes the immediate future, casual intimation of Police Court Justice Harris furnishes material for predicting that the elean up is slated to begin on or before Wednesday, August 1. Judge Harris's intimation happened this way One of the hackdrivers of the city was before court Saturday morning on a charge of going to sleep in his carriage and questions put to him affecting, he principally was the handling character drew the of answer that it was largely visitors to the East Raleigh seetion. said Judge Harris, "you can begin to look for another job for a after August 1 there will not be anybody out there you to visitors to see." There every evidenee in the attifor, tude of Chief Barbour when queried about the purpose of his department, to indicate that he has "something up his sleeve," in the language of the street and there is also much in his answers from which to draw the conelusion that the clean up is going to be far more literal than has been past attempts to drive the harlots out of town.

Questioned about the situation as it is now, Chief and his men have little to say. They will open up to the extent of saying that there are between fifteen and twenty-five women of the underworld living in the East Raleigh section. Patrolmen say but one visitor is allowed to enter a house at the time and that the slot pianos are barred. Pianos are, however, qualifed by the adjective slot. Last January the women Were all "run in" by Chief Koonce and upon tering pleas of guilty to charges of vagrancy, were permitted to return to their haunts upon paying the costs in the cases against them, amounting to $3.85 individually.

Since that time Blanche MeCade was tried for an 98- sault and upon the prosecuting attorney praying a suspended sentence, she went to jail a few days but was later released through a writ of habeas corpus. Her case was continued at the last term of Superior Court. Ada King, another resident of the same section of the city, WAS recently fined in police court for disorderly conduet and is at present under a $200 answer a charge of moral misconduet. When the King woman was arrested and put under right heavy bond it was thinght then that the campaign had started. of the women not the least tromblesome to the police department are the street walkers and it has been understood that much complaint has reached the department about this class of women.

This is not verified by the police but it is not an infrequent occurrence for a woman of this type to be hailed before court and sentenced to the roads or ordered to leave the city. Whiskey has been frequently mentioned in connection with the East I Raleigh situation, although none of the women have been indieted during the past six months. It is current rumor that some of the women here are dividing their residence between Goldsboro and Raleigh, although Goldsboro recently started a campaign to get rid of this class of residents. With the intimation thrown out by Judge Harris and the general attitude of the police department, it is highly probable that the first of the incoming month will see A method of dealing with the harlots, if not their removal. It is also practically certain that a rather severe policy will be adopted for handling the floating class of vagrants.

DR. VAN VALZAH WILL LEAVE FOR NEW JERSEY THIS WEEK Will Again Offer His Services to the Government. Dr. J. A.

Van Valzah, of this city, who, in April, when the United States declared a state of war existed with Germany, offered his services to the Surgeon General of the army, at Washington, and who was not accepted, as he was not a registered doctor in this State, will leave this week for New Jersey, where he is registered, and will again offer his services. In his letter to the Surgeon General, Dr. Van Valzah said he was 50 years old, but physically as hardy and able, capable and willing to endure the most rigorous requirements of modern warfare as any who will apply. The Doctor asks: "Why not take men of my age and reserve the flower of the land until the last?" He also refers to the fact that he has a nephew, Harold Van Valzah, the. President's yacht; another nephew, Valzah, now attending the military school in Washing ton, and a cousin, Douglass Van Valzah, just appointed to Annapolis.

He also stated that he is a Pennsylvanian and that his great-grandfather fought throughout the Revolutionary War, entering it at the age of 16.

TO AVOID LOSS OF PERISHABLE FRUIT AND VEGETABLES (Continued from Page One.) (president Ball Glass Manufacturing Company). H. W.

Phelps, New York, vice president of the American Can Company, and F. E. Gorrell, Washington, seeretary of the National Canners' Association, participated in an advisory pacity in the preliminary conferences of the National Volunteer Committee. The twenty four States which have grown large crops of perishable fruits and vegetables, which it is necessary to conserve in order to avoid appalling wastes of these foodstuffs, are: Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, ginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Washington. Two points made by President Wilson in his letter are particularly portant: "Every bushel of potatoes properly stored, every pound of vegetables properly put by for future jar of fruit preserved, add that much to our insurance of victory, add that much to hasten the end of this confliet.

To win we must have maximum efficieney in all directions. We can not win without complete and effective concentration of all our efforts." must aim to consume these things locally 50 far a8 possible thus relieve the pressure on transportation agencies, freeing them for the more efficient handling products required for military purposes. What we can not presently consume we must conserve." The particular vegetables that have been raised in home yard gardens in cities and rural communities, as well as by fermers, and which are threatening vast waste from their abundance are: Tomatoes, beets, potatoes, beans, cabbage, onions, sugar corn, peas, carrots. The fruits are: Penches, pears, apples and in some of the States blackberries. The resources of the government with the volunteer help of neighbors to each other, schools, clubs, Governors, and the press, will be put behind this intensive effort for three weeks, and longer in certain States where required.

In the simplest detail the housewife and "Mother and Daughter Clubs" everywhere will be told how they may render this most patriotic service in their homes. They are to be asked first to put by food for their own consumption and, second, to devise the best methods of marketing their surplus products locally. Owing to the shortage in the supply of tin containers, most of the ing and canning will have to be done in glass jars, of which 900,000 TOSS of the Mason jar type have been distributed through the manufacturers for the present season's needs. The total manufacturing capacity of this type of jar, which will be increased by the manufacturers as necessary, is approximately 6,000 gross per day, or 000 jars during the next hundred days.

TWO WOMEN SLIGHTLY HURT IN AIR RAID ON PARIS. (By The Associated Press.) Paris, July -The censor today permits the publication of scanty details of an air raid made on Paris Friday night, which The Associated Press was not allowed to send yesterday and which the French newspapers were not permitted to publish. According to this information bombs were dropped on three different suburban sections. In the first bombardment caused absolutely no damage; in the other two localities Ave or six bombs were dropped, causing the slight injury of two women. One of the women wag struck while in bed and was removed to a hospital; the other was injured by flying glass.

One bomb of several that fell in a field is believed to have contained asphyxiating gas, Another raid on Paris Saturday night was even more unsuccessful than that on Friday, for the German aviators were not able to reach Paris at all. Their coming was anticipated and French protecting airplanes were cireling above and around Paris from early evening. The residents, however, did not look for a renewal of the fruitless attack of the previous night end most of them had retired when the sirens gave the warning. Crowds rushed to the streets, roofs and windows instead of seeking shelter but they saw nothing. Less than an hour after the first warning reassuring bugles announced that the enemy aviators had been turned back.

He likes the work, and writing his mother gives the reassuring information that. although at the base where he is training there are a great many accidents It is remarkable how few injuries are sustained. are many wrecks of machines," he writes, "but scarcely any one ever gets an arm broken." Telling of his experiences in an interesting letter to his mother, he says: am now at school and flying every dav, It is fine sport, but not half so exciting as I expected.

expected to experience all kinds of sensations, such as the cold chills creeping up and down my back, but instead I did not feel excited at all after I had been in machine two minutes. It is like being on a smooth river in a canoe drifting with the stream with the wind blowing in your fnce. "At this school there are a great number of machines and also a great many men in training. We have very competent and careful instructors, men who have been at the front and have had years of experience. We are takin it slowly, but I expect to be qualified pilot in six weeks." The daily routine in the aviation camp in given as follows: "Four up we come and have coffee or chocolate and brend, getting on the flying field by 5: fly until 9:30: instruction on motors and machine from 9:80 to 10:30: 10:30, breakfast; 10:30 to 4:30 sleep, then dinner and fly until o'elock or dark." Young Marshburn sends a vivid aecount of his voyage across.

On the fifth day out we had target practice and the gunnery proved excellent. Three times we were called to quarters to repel 1.11 attack. On June 5 at 11:15 a.

thirty miles off the coast of France, we had our real danger. Richard Thompson, A boy from Raleigh, who has been in the navy seven years was on watch in the crow's nest. He noted a ripple off our starboard beam and a minute later torpendo passed in thirty, feet of our stern. The man at wheel had just enough time to swing the ship 80 it, would miss us. Our gunners were right on the job and forced the submarine to beat it.

Thirty minutes later the periscope was sighted off our port bow and another torpendo was fired, this just missing us. Our gunners replied, and we believe we made a hit an the shell hit and exploded just where the periscope was. It was due to the quick action of our watchmen and gunners that we were able to avoid being sunk." After reaching a port in France it was only a few days before the adventurous young Raleigh boy was in his aviation school learning to fly for the Allies. The greatest privation endured by Americans in France, according to Marshburn is the lack fo sweets, due to the practically prohibitive prices. sent clarion call for some sweets, "We cannot get anything sweet over here," he says in one of his letters, "without paying the very highest price for it.

W. J. CRAINE AT TABERNACLE Pastor of Kansas Church Preaches on "Cost of Discipleship Preaching on "The Cost of Discipleship," Rev. W. J.

Craine, of Hiawatha, Kansas, filled the pulpit for Dr. Weston Bruner at the Tabernacle last night. Dr. Bruner is away on his vacation, and supply preachers will conduct the serv-1 ice of the church next Mr. Craine is a graduate of Wake Forest College and frequently attended the Tabernacle Church during his college career.

Last night, he dragged himself from his sick bed to keep his appointment. A good sized congregation the temperature heard him. His text was taken from the words of Christ: "If any man would come ter me, let him deny himself, and take up his eross aud follow me." ship he declared are self-denial, cross. outstanding requirements for disciplebearing, and self -committal. "So long as a man is engaged in getting things of the world and puts the things of this life above the Kingdom of Christ, he is centered in self," the minister said, adding that while selfpreservation has been characterized as the first law of nature, self-denial is one of the highest laws of the Kingdom.

But -denial isn't all, he continued. A group of people out in Kansas have succeeded almost perfectly in nial. They have banned all fanciful things of dress and comforts and have approached the perfection the principle, but it has been with hands turned not to the work of the Kingdom but folded saint as in anticipation of the coming of Christ. "To become a follower of Jesus Christ one must not only practice self -sacrifice but must assume responsibilities come to the followers of Christ." He said speaking of cross- in its varied aspects, and emphasizing the fact that the discipleship doesn't depend on the number of crosses borne or the size of the cross but on the willingness to bear. And then the disciple of Christ must follow Christ, committing himself fully to His work.

"He that would come af. ter me, let him deny himself, take up his cross and follow me," the text had said. David Livingston did that, the minister pointed out, wher he left loved ones, friends, and happiness at home to carry the Gospel to the heathen of Blackest Africa. It is not always peaceable, Mr. Craine said.

Democracy must be conserved and freedom assured, and the great world war must continue until the world derstands that it is lost without Christ. KAISER EXULTS IN THE DEEDS OF HIS TROOPS Copenhagen, July William, according to a telegram from Berlin, has sent the following message to Field Marshal Von Hindenburg: "From the battlefields of Galicia, where my troops in an unresting advance have won fresh Inurels, I recall with a grateful heart the unforgettable deeds of my armies in the west in repulsing the enemy with tenacious perseverance. Above all, I think of the brave troops in Flanders, who for weeks have been the target of the most violent artillery fire, and who dauntlessly await the future." Enlists as Chaplain. Richmond, July -The Rev. T.

M. Bulla, Pastoria, of a Presbyterian church at has enlisted as chaplain the Fourth Virginia Infantry and expects to go into camp with the command at an early date. He is from Fayetteville, N. and was gradunted from Union Theological Seminary in this city several years ago. DR.

MOORE GIVES FAREWELL SERMON Preaches at the First Baptist Church Before Taking Up Work In Nashville Dr. Hight C. Moore, former editor. pf the Biblical Recorder who resigned to accept the managing editorship of the Sunday School Board of the Southern Baptist Convention, yesterday preached in the First Baptist Church. It was Dr.

Moore's. last. Sunday here before proceding to Nashyille, where he will take up his new duties. "What does the world think of the man with the talent?" Dr. Moore asked, quoting from Matthew 25:24 for his text: "He.

which had received one talent." the minister said, hold that the talent man, not troubled much with his responsibility, deserves the fate that be got while others say he was discriminated against. "Whether we pity, censure, or disregard him," Dr. Moore continued, "none of us envies his reward or his course of conduct. No one would envy his life of failure. Yet, he is a representation of people today.

Some who have only one talent think they have five, and some credit themselves with two, but the hard fact remains that they have only one." does the talent stand for! It used to be a standard of money. Now it stands for all of gifts and endowments of ability. In the parable of the pounds each person was given the same. This showed the same endowment, but not the show of fidelity exhibited by the parable of the talents. The talents we have are a trust from God.

"God put in the hands of each man enough to occupy his entire time and attention. He gave to every man accord. ing to his several ability. We times wonder why each of us is not given the same ability. We might as well ask why is not every tree an oak.

"These gifts are given to us for the sake of opportunity. Every mAn has chance. No one can claim that an opportunity never came to him, or that he is surrounded with a high wall exeluding chances from him. "Why was it that Christ singled out the man with the one talent as the one to be a failure? When the man of one talent fails it is not because he is foredoomed to failure. It is not because he has one talent, but because of the use of it.

"The secret of his failure was not theft or forgery, but hiding the talent be had. He spent more effort in hiding his talenta than he would have in using it. Some of us spend more energy in getting out of performing a duty than he would have in doing the work. His excuse was I knew that thou art a hard master. A great many of our failures are due to a wrong view of God.

He is not hard. "The end of failure is reproach. Thou wicked and slothful sevant. What more severe punishment can be measured out than the reproach of an injured master. Then after being reproached the servant was deprived of the talent.

Then for such a man there was nothing but outer darkness. "There was before these three men same opportunity and this was threefold, first the possibility of duplication, as the one of five talents did. There was also the possibility of approach, ench could pass the examination just as completely as the others regardless of the nature of the examination. There was also the possibility promotion. Warriors want promotion as a reward of their bravery.

Then with promotion was to win joy. "What shall be our lesson! It is this, each of us has at least one talent. The consecrated one is better than the unconsecrated five. Do your earnest duty and path will open for you as th perfect day. If you cannot accomplis all alone join your efforts to other and together you can accomplish much." Society Murray Family Reunion.
