The morning service in the Baptist
church Sunday morning was
by the building catching on
the furnace room. The pastor had
but fairly started his sermon, when
smoke was seen arising just to the
right of the pulpit chair. Members
of the choir went down the back
into basement to

door facing near tho furnace flue.
This was reported to the pastor who
explained It to the congregation and
dismissed them to go out quietly,
It took but a few minutes to put
out the fire and while an alarm was
turned in it was out when the de-

consequence resulted, owing to the
lire being discovered so promptly.

What would think of doing health
work on commission Well, that is
really what North Carolina Is doing.
In 1911 about worth or
man lives were saved by health work.
For this stale paid In
other words, it was lone on a seven
per cent commission.
In 1912 the health machinery got
a little better and as a rs-
no less than worth of
human lives were saved on this same
appropriation of In other

a little less than a per cent com-

About the time some of these facts
became known certain legislators who
didn't have anything but sense began
to wake up to the fact that health
work pays and In order to make it pay
a little better and In order to find out
exactly what it did pay. they managed
to secure an appropriation

for the enforcement of a vital
