NEWS AND OBSERVER. RALEIGH. N. THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 13, 1927. 8 STUDENTS FAIR ENDS AT STATE, Exhibits To Be Kept In Place Today For 'Dad's Day' Visitors at College Although the curtain was formally rung down last night on the seveuth annual agricultural students' fair at N.
C. State College, student exhibits and other features of the event will remain in place today in order that "Dad's Day" visitors at the collage ma7 have an opportunity to "take in" the fair. The rains of yesterday considerably cut down attendance on the aasond day of the fair and all but put the attractions out of business. The two mid-way tents stood up well under the dewnpour, however, and the troupa, of performers appearing on way refused to have their spirits dampened by the efforts of Jupiter Plurius. As result, the entertainment features of the fair held their own last night.
Students' exhibits, consisting -of produce grown at home by the students, yesterday morning underwent scrutiny of the judges' committee, composed of F. E. Miller, of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture; W. F. Pate, of the Southern Fertilizer Association, and H.
H. B. Mask, of the Chilean Nitrate Society. The exhibits were of a high order and the judges found it difficult in most instances to grade the winners. The fair was formally opened Tuesday morning with a parade through the business section of the city which attracted much attention.
feature of the parade was the group of floats entered by students of the various phases of agriculture. First prize went to the Vocational Education' float, while Agronomy and Biology floats won second and third prizes. The annual fair is incorporated and is operated entirely by a student the present year are: organization, officers of which F. S. Sloan, Franklin, president; C.

"We are being fought by the billions of the bootlegging industryBenedict Arnold and the Judas Iseariots who call themselves Americans; who forsake all principle, party or religion for but one thing, the satisfaction of their own cravings for liquor or for gold. "Prohibition i sa success, but the smartest thing the wets have ever done is to take the American people come to the conclusion that success and perfection are the same thing. And there lies the bulk of the discouragement good people feel about prohibition. Success and perfection are not the same thing at all. Nothing ie perfect.
The Magna Charta was not perfection; the Revolutionary War was not perfection; the Civil War not perfection, but they were all successful. Success is doing what you set out to do. "We of the W. C. T.
U. set out in the first place, to put the liquor business out government and the government out of the liquor business, and the liquor business out of business. We have succeeded first steps and will succeed in the remainder if it takes us centurios to do it. "The chief vice of the American people is impatience. They have expected us to tear down and destroy in one year or two years a billion dollar business which has its very foundation in the foundation and forming of this nation.
That, of course, is an absurd demand. A mushroom grows, up overnight but oak grows slowly but none the less surely and sturdily through the years. This W. C. T.
U. is not 8 mushroom growth. "Every great and worthwhile battle has been won by a righteous, minority who were willing to suffer martyrdom. The big job created by God for this generation is to free the world from the curse of drink and it must and will be done, if need be by this minority of women." President's Address. Mrs.
John Duckett, honorary president of the local W. C. T. welcomed the delegates to the conven- HOSTESS TO STATE CONVENTION W. C.

T. who welcomed convention to city. tion, and Mrs. R. Lee Wright, of responded at the opening Salisburs, convention yesterday morning.
Mrs. W. B. Lindsay, of Charlotte, president, declared in her presidential address that prohibition has become. a great factor in the increased prosperity of the nation in that it has diverted funds formerly spent for liquor to necessities and luxuries for the home.
Not only material, but social and religious progress followed in the wake of prohibition, she asserted. It is not necessary to license the liquor traffic to run schools, hospitals and public institutions, she declared, pointing to the rapid strides along this line which America has made since prohibition. Brief reports from the local unions were heard showing a year of progress, and convention committees were appointed before the body adjourned for lunch. Yesterday afternoon's session was taken up. with the reports of officers including: Mrs.
Ellen J. Y. Preyer, of Greensboro, treasurer; Miss Velma McCullough, of Greensboro, auditor; Miss Flora B. Harding, of Asheville, corresponding secretary. Nicholson, of Charlotte, reported on the activity of the "North Carolina White Ribbon," the official publication of the Union, and Mrs.
Elizabeth Corzine, of Charlotte, toook the chair for the reports on the organization of the Young Peo- ple's branch. Defends Legislative Measure. Mrs. Charles G. Doak, of Raleigh, chairman of the departments of Christian Citizenship and Legislation, presented her report.
She reviewed the national legislation the W. C. T. U. women a are interested in, and defended the Woman's Joint Congressional Committee, of which the National W.
C. T. U. is a member, against the charge of the liquor interests of the country that the committee is "Bolshevistic. Communistic, Radical and Socialistic," and declared that not only organizations making up the committee, but the leaders of these organizations have been known for many years as sane and safe leaders, genuinely interested in legislation effecting for good women, children and the home, She stated that now woman ballot with which to back up the committee, the liquor interests are realizing its strength and are seeking to destroy the committee by claiming that it does not, represent the true sentiment of th women of the country with reference to prohibition.
She asked the women to be certain to ask two questions of those who attack this committee: "Are you, or the group you speak for, paid to attack this committee?" If so, "by whom?" Mrs. Palmer Jerman, president of the Legislative Council of North Carolina Women, was introduced to the Convention and brief speech on the work of the council, emphasizing its value as an organ through which women can be heard and felt.

This poisonous matter may have been in the intestines a long time, causing gas, headache, sleeplessness and many other symptons. A treatment of just a weeks with Adlerika often brings great permanent improvements in cases of so-called stomach, trouble.
What Doctors Say Dr. H. Louis Shoub, New York, states: "Adlerika, in addition to its intestinal cleansing action, tends to check the growth of intestinal bacteria." Dr. A. J.
Lancaster, a physician of over a quarter century's experience, says: "In the treatment of gastro-intestinal disorders. lerika has no equal." J. E. writes: "After using Adlerika, I feel better than for 20 years. Awful impurities were eliminated from my system." Dr.
Carl Wescheke, graduate of Heidelberg University, Germany, first perfected Adlerika. It is compound of the best saline intesinal cleanser known to science with glycerine, buckthorn, cascara and other gas -expelling and detergent elements. Many physicians recognize Adlerika as the one dependable remedy for gas, intestinal stasis chronic constipation. Unlike most medicines it acts on BOTH upper and lower bowel. Even if your bowels move every day, Adlerika may bring out poisonous, gas-forming matter which you would never belive was in your system.
No matter what you have tried for the bowels and tomach, Adlerika will surprise you. Sold by over 39,000 druggists. In Raleigh by Eckerd's and other druggists..
