WEDNESDAY. DECEMBEP Polling Together For Roads. • a farmer writing to a Western Keutueky paper about road con-, (jitions makes a sensible plea for community effort toward highway iniprorement, In his county, he gaySt 1 instead of fixing a bad place in' me road, we e'raply drive a romv! it wherever that is possible. The right plan, he thinks, would be lor ihe people to get together and iuuke the necessary repairs. “If the people of a community,” be adds, liWill all turn out to make a culvert iu a bad place and make the proper drainage of the ap j„caches, or to remove a large boulder, or take out a stump which has been the bane of the farmer with a load of his farm pro _ Cluet. that community has the right jiud of road improvement idea.” Unfortunately, there are too few communities where a sufficiency of public spirit exists to get the peo pie together in that kind of enter prise. Ihe average rural resident will ven- cheerfully give of his time to help a neighbor raise a barn, or roll the logs off his new- ground Held, or to assist in p.ow- iug bis corn, if the neighbor hap pens to be ill and has a crop in the weeds, but it is a hard matter to get him interested in rolad build- in?. It would be a great incen tive to better roads if rural com munities could be induced to de vote a little spare time to the high ways, but it requires a good deal of missionary work to get the pro per degree of enthusiasm aroused, and “the harvest is great and the laborers are few.” There have been instances in Kentucky where excellent results bare been effected in road build ing through community effort. As a rule, however, communities are singularly patient and listless in such matters, and what is “every body's business” proves to be “ no body’s business.” - Thegood roads campaign will have to be taken to the cross roads and to the country school houses before there is any general movement for co-operative rehabilitation. 4. 1912.NUMBER 22 Snipe Hunting. At 1.1:10 o’clock there arrived at Court Bquare a youth. He wao muddy. Ke was wet. He was wor ried. He wore a rubber coat his lace was the picture of despair The friendliest man he could see was the fat policeman on the local police force. He was not surprised much to see a man wet and muddy that night. “Say. officer.” called the young fellow, and the fat policeman loan ed bis ear to the youth. The question was not in a whis per exactly, but the voice was low. “Did you ever go snipe hunting!” it-asked. The officer declared he never had hut ’lowed he’ed heard tell of such hunting somewhere. “'Veil, do you know,!’ and the voire was a little more confidential “that I believe them fellers--have played a trick on me!” His se riousness was contagious, and so ihe lace ot tne policeman was at si'll as a bag in a bonnet—until he grew icss serious.- “'Ye all ” coutiniied tbe appli cant for information and sympathy oinl advice, “went out here in the country just exactly five miles, and Ihoy gave me a big tow sack, and Put me :n a ditch to wait till they Wnie back. Thatwaslong- about dark—about 7 ' o’clock—and I jHVeiPfc seen them yet. And I Mnyed right there, too, where they i me till a little whilb ago.” .

Lots of parents named thpir children after Grover Cleveland, and were sorry ever after! ■ There is no reason why Mocksville should not have a street fair next fall. Such - fair would bring a big crowd of people to our town, and would give the farmers a chance to exhibit their .ine"%tock, poultry,, grains, fruits, canned goods, etc. We hope that the merchants, the farmers ana the professional men. will begin pulling right now for this fair. We would especially request the members of the Farmers’ Union to lend their assistance to this, fair, and help talk it up. We would be glad to; hear from anyone who has anysuggestions to make. The col umns of The Record are open to all. ARE THERE STILL OTHERS. Sincethe late unpleasantness, as the last election is termed by some, The Record has lost four of its sub scribers. Quite a number of Repub licans throughout the county made threats that they would stop the paper if we didn’t quit fighting the Bull Moose party, and stand solid by the Republican county ticket. We fought Teddy up to the day of the election, and we refused to swallow a couple of the men on our county ticket, and did all: we could in an honorable way to defeat one of the men. Our actual expense in this campaign to defeat this gentleman was $2.38; cost of tickets and post age. Wondor if theboys would let us print the amount that was spent by them? No, we believe not. We have, been told that one of the ‘'high and mighty” said he would run us and our paper out of the county. . But we are here yet, de spite the fact that the boycotting has already begun. Acleasttwo of the county officers are having all their printing done in other clues or by Democratic papers. The reas on may be that their great love for the Democratic party induces them to such worthy action. Butlet the boycotting go on. We have nothing to take back and no apologies to make. The Record, during the past thirteen years, has done more for the Republican party in Davie than any office-hunter or bunch of them, for that matter. The editor has al ways been a Republican from prin . ciple.and notforpie, and has grit enough to scratch any man whom he believes to be unfit for an office. If there are others of our subscrib ers who wish to stop the paper be cause we stood by Taft and scratch ed the county ticket, they are invi ted to come forward, pay what they oweandstop. Wewillforgdvethem for they know not what they do. To every name we take off our Hst we propose to put two new ones on. At the present time our circulation is larger than ever before, and we are adding new names almost daily. Riders Destroy . Tobacco Worth $20.00.

What is a' home without a mother; a heaven without a redeem ed soul. I will say that ninety-nine persons out of one hundred have a home of some sort in this world, Andasthatblessed old hymn says, "Be it ever so humble, there’s no place like home.” I tell you if God was ever in the composing of a hymn He surely was in this. Just think of it, A man said to be blind and with out a home in this world, to compose a hymn that will be sung through endless ages. You know thatin this world there are all sorts of homes; you will find them from the log cab in to the palace; and you will find in these homes all sorts of people, from the vilest sinner to the purest Chris tian of today. You will find in them the most humble to the proudest and vain of mankind. Oh how sad when we see in these palace homes the vainglory of man. When we re member that he must soon become earth and worms, just the same as his poor neighbor that has lived In a hovel. While youwillfindin these homes the good and the bad, the rich and the poor, the learned and the unlearned, you will only find one kind of flesh and blood. If I was called upon to go out into the world to find in these homes the purest and best Christians I would never think of going into these palace homes, but I would go into the more hum ble homes to find them. While I will not say that a man cannot be a ‘ Cnristian that lives in these palace homes. Just think of it that the Rinn of Kings and Lord of Lords without a home; without a place to Jay his head. If it had been the di vine will of the Father He would have been born in a mansion instead of a manger, such a mansion as no eye has ever seen or ever entered into the heart of man to conceive But He made himself of no reputa tion, but took upon himself the form of a servant. There is only one sort of folks in the grave; the folks that have lived in log cabins are equal with the folks that have lived in palaces. And there will be only one sort of folks in that home in heaven—the pure and good that are redeemed and perfected and made glorious in the likenessof Him ivhosaid ‘Tam the truth, the life and the way.” The bible tells us of a home in heaven and a home in hell, In that home in heaven a place. of love, joy and rest. In that home in hell, a place of anguish, grief and misery. I know we do not know what is beyond this life,, but we have the promise of a life beyond the grave. We see through a glass darkly, and we cannot understand why things are so and so. It was not intended for us to know of these things. If we had foreknowledge of these things, our lives would be mis erable here in this world. Why, be cause we would often be doing some thing that would'- gi ve us trouble. Nearly every day we would be see ing some loved one for the last time, bidding farewell with some one for the last time; eating the last supper with some one for the last time. And all these things wonld give us trouble, I believe that we should enjoy this world and not abuse it. Noddidnot intend for us to‘go through this world cast down and in grief and sorrow all the days of our lives, but to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who JJreeP- He says, ‘Ret not your heart be troubled, believe In God, believe a'so in me.” I know that nearly a I eWthly scenes are tinged with sad- JleSs1 and that all skies have clouds, but Christ offers us a home in heav- en. But the final end of all below nre the robe, the shroud, The final ln beaven will beaiobe of righteous ness on our bodies, that crown of gk>ry on our heads, that palm of viCtory in our hands F.

To The Editor:—The cause or the causes of the high prices of the t lings (hat constitute what we live on seem to be hard to find. One of the causes, so the wise men tsll us, is the increased production of gold, the basis of the medium Cf exchange for the nations who do the business of the world. Gold 18 cheap, ergo, other things are high; but Cr n’t otbev things be produced proportionately as plen tifnUy as gold, so as o keep the balance even—produce a lotof gold then produce a lot of other things, too, to match it? When the wise men put the nation’s exchange on a gold basis they thought that things had been settled; but not so it seems, and the wise men who are laying on. the tariu all the ills of which we suffer will hud that tariff reform will not affect the high cost ot living. It will go on until societ y realizes—becomes con scious—of the patent, outstanding fact that as lone as tbc things on which people live and progress are produced and distributed for pri- vate profit that there can be no fair exchange of commodities. As long as everything by which society lives and moves is weighed down with all sorts of profits living will be high. Take fire insurance. We pay about six hundred millions of dol lars yearly to protect ourselves a- gainst three hundred million dol Iar yearly fire losses. It would be better were we to levy a tax and pay the loss than to pay the one hundred per cent more than the loss to be prpteqtgd &gainsfc it.. So, too, we could better afford to hand somely pension the beneficiaries of profit system. It is highly probable that the profit iE BChool books in North Carolina will reach half a million dollars annually. Why not let the people, collectively, make their own books and sell them at cost to themselves? Why not? Because we are dominated by the profits takers. The business man—the ,profit taker—we think rodispen Bible, and bow down and worship him. The biggest profit-taker is usually the most influential citi zen, The fellow who takes more than he gets back is the fellow that makes the successful business man possible,'and is the same IeP low that is hard hit by. the high cost of living, and is usually the fellow who has nothing to . ex change for his salary and wages bat his brain and l>rawn. His brain and brawn must produce more for the profit takers than his wages and salary will exchange for. So the coot of living is al ways h*gh to him. J. P. TAYLOR. Winston Salem, N. C. Paying Freak Ekcdon Bets. Correspondents ail over the coun try report that the crop of freak election bettors is mere flourishing this year than ever before. Cor roborative evidence is . furnished with each report. For instance: A Chicago broker who bet his wife that Taft would win has dis charged his beautiful blonde steno grapher and hired onfe who has red hai r, freckles and wears spectacles. Washington is full of penttnent freak bettors. One fried an egg on the steps of the national capitol. Another tried to carry an egg on a fork up the steps of the Wash ington monument. He.: dropped it half way up and a guard made h:m clean the steps, A third Washington bettor, who believed in Taft, donned knee breeches and rode a boy’s veloci pede to the White H oufe entrance, shouting through a megaphone: ‘•I’m glad Wilson won!’.’ Now, By JiBg*. Woihen as a whole are generally regarded as staunch supporters of prohibition ani^ea e m jg ^ ttM whiskey traffic in any form. It- is a notable fact, however, that the prohibition amendment in Colora do was defeated recently, largely because of the stand taken by the women against it. The following dispatch is from the Denver Re publican: “ While hundreds of men in the city and throughout the state worked against the am endment-, it was mainly due to the efforts of the women that it was de feated. No better workers than the women were at the command of the Anti-Prohibition League: All day pretty and handsomely gowned members of the fair sex stood at the polls coaxing and ea joling voters to cast their ballot for a “ wet” state and'local option, and t ieir efforts in countless cases met with success. In addition th6 wo men themselves made it a point to voteagainst prohibition.—Winston Sentinel. Mr. McCoy, His Farm Work and His Mole. The Huntersville correspondent of the Charlotte Observer is re sponsible for the following: Mr. L. C. McCoy at the age of 83 years is one of the spryest farm ers of this section. He has just finished plowing in 10 bushels of oats and gathering his corn. He did the plowing with a bull-tongue plow and his faithful old mule that has never been traded. ‘ Of this mule the old gentleman is very fond and has taught him many things that a mule is not sup posed to know:.-When Pete is told to die, he immediately stretches himself out flat on the ground-and looks dead enough to satisfy the sexton. His master then sits on him. It has often been ‘ predicted that Pete would come to life to soon some time for his master, but this so far has not happened. “In the town Mr. McCoy has se veral vacant lots and entertains himself with their cultivation. His -farm methods, are not- altogether book learned; but he makes his little crops pay and after all he sometimes gets ahead of some of his more up to-date neighbors who farm.” The Place Hooters. ; And now the merry riff raff are upon the Democratic green engag ed in Morris dances and circling in expectation the May pole, which will come conveniently after the fourth of March to cause an air of festivity to invest them in their sportive performances. Falstaff never gathered together a more inotley crew than those who under insigna of pure citizenship are dan citig to the measures of their own fond hopes. From aspirants for cabinet places to the would-be fill ers ot the places of the lowly, the hpsts of volunteers are in a mad state of egoism, feeling that each and every one has a certified prom ifo of a place in the adminBtration of the good and great and gracious man whose Ianguorons limbs are folded in a pose of contemplative satisfaction. Woodrow Wilson is the lander. He alone thus far has assurance of the job with the exception of the man who will fan the flies from the rostrum of the Senate chamber and those pellucid statesmen who, by virtue of the votes of their fellows, have been cousigned to the cham ber of American horrors—the low er house. Who cares now for Car negie pension, who cares even to revive recollection of impecuniosity in the breadth and the benevolence of the biggest job an American citizen can achieve? And the we-did»it crowd of he reditary job seekers, following a party success, are indulging the roseate hopes that circle about them in the light of good fortune t#the man whose adage has' ever been spare the rod and spoil the child. Illinois will pass away and the gentle horde of place hunters will stili be on the job; only pass ively, seeking ever seeking, until the last syllable of recorded time.

If the next North Carolina legis lature was composed of more farm ers and fewer jack-leg lawyers, the masses-would fare a lot better. Our friend Woodrow has about decided at what church he will wor ship, which means that there are a lot of disappointed preachers in the City of Washington. The price of cotton and tobacco remains high, also the price of eggs, meat and other farm products. Fat times for the producer, tough times for the consumer. Up to this good hour not one of our friends have dumped a pumpkin at our office. Is the supply short, or is the election of Woodrow Wil son responsible for this sad state of affairs?

NORTH CAROLINA; WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 18. 1912.NUMBER 24 Knde Tobey’s Lecture on Raising Chickens. HomeandFarm. j[y Wn'e hits been talking so J1Iich about chickens of late, that I bare been "reading up”, on the subject until I have aechtnulated some information about, and a great deal of admiration fo r,th e ben. Every time I see a hen now !feel like taking off my hat to her Somehorr or other my wife has a ,ray of putting things like this be fore me that not only excites my curiosity, but gives me a thirst for J1Oie information. We buy our chickens from an old farmer who tells her that his wife raises from 1000 to 1.300 fowls a year and sells them for $300 or more, besides the eggs they disposed of. Of course things like that always appeal to a man who has to help his wiie make a living for the lamily. She talked the cow business to me un til I bought a cow, and now I sup pose the cow business has become a pennaacnt feature Iu the family. And now we have abcut decided to devote a portion of our little live acre farm to the chicken busi ness. and if I’ll buy the chickens to start it and enough feed to run it a year, pay for the coops and other things necessary to run a chicken raucb, I’m sure, she will make some money out of it, and I’ll get chickens and eggs to eat occasionally. Shortlyafter we were married my wife and I went into the poul try business. It has been so long ago that one ought to forget things like that, but we don’t. W e nev er forget our past failures and our ofAersreethearts. I said we went into the chicken busInessf' thatT means both of us. The first thing we did was to figure it all out on paper, like Col. Sellers did his eye water proposition which he was going to introduce in China. There were 4,000,000 people in ChiDa: each one had two eyes, and each eye would need a bottle of the celebrated eye-water. Therefore there would be millions of profits ia it. I think that we figured that each heu would raise two broods of chickens, of fifteen in each brood. That would make thirty. The ba1- ancewas only a question of the number of hens we would start in business with. We built a coop 10x12 in size. That was the size of mother’s chicken coop. But mother only had twenty or twenty- five hens. Somehow we failed to take that into consideration. One thing we had was plenty of range; there was no fence around the coop at all. and plenty of woids and brush nearl y, I thought then that it was an ideal place and my wife thought so too. She was’ more flexible to my opinions then than she is now. I think now that there ^as too much disparity between the size of the coop and the extent of the range. We made the nicest kinds of nests in the coop, but somehow those hens preferred to seek the most outlandish, secret Places to make their own nests. A tow, however, had the good sense to appreciate what had been pre; Pared for them and laid in ube cooP and roosted there. We bought &eveuty-five hens to start with. If ^as all we were able to buy. think I would have bought 7,000 h I had had the money. They ■oust have all been the same breed, aIthough we bought them from a ^aIf dozen different persons, and they were of all sorts of colors and sizes. At any rate, they all want ed to lay at the same time. Then t^ey sill wanted to set at the same hme, and three or four would get °n the same nest. They bad no Wem about them. We tried set- 'ng them in a small box just big enough for one hen. They would eave the nest. We put them back anaPut a cover over the box, first riug some holes in it so the hen conId get plenty of air. Then theyj would Btand up. They didn’t seem to know that they couldn’t hatch the eggs by. standing on theni. They were the contrariest lot of hens I ever saw. " - One day an old hen came strut" ting out of a hazel pitch with four teen Iittfo chicks following her. “Isn’t that our hen?” asked my wife. “It is,” she replied before I had time to answer. She knew every one of those seventy five hens by sight. The next d?:y two ir she vred up Vrita two oruodsof chickens flu lowing. We were delighted. From that day they kept coming until the place was covered with chick ens. My wife and I concluded that after all the natural way was the best, ana that the hens knew more about the chicken bus' .;e.sS than we did. Of course, we fo„ >em, and it took lots of feed. It wasn’t long untii we discover ed that some of the little chicks were missing.- The fourteen that the first old hen brought off drop ped to eieven; tnea cc nine; then io seven; six, and finally she went scratching around with one lonely little chick following her. It was pretty much the way with all the rest. One day they would become “droopy,” and the next day they would die. Sometimes they died the same day. We greased them with all kinds of dope our neigh bors could think of, and rubbed them with coal oil, and I suppose we cured as many as we killed, which is better than most doctors do, but the herd disappeared rapid ly until by the middle of August there w,ere but few left. The snakes preyed upon them by night and the Bawks bsffiSfepT One nteht. my wifewasawak^^ Vffioud squall; she woke me up and we armed ourselves for battle; she with a lan tern and I with a “big stick.” When we got out to where the noise came from, we discovered that a big black-snake had swallow ed four chicks and killed three more. When I got through with him, it is not necessary to say that “he never Bmiled agaiD.” We know more about the chick en business now than we did then, and we are going to try it again. The other day my wife usked me what breed of chickens we would better begin with. I told her that if we were not going to use an in cubator I thought Irish Setters Would be best; anyhow to do the setting. She said she never heard of Irish Setters and s^e didn’t be lieve there was any b-eixl by that “Oh, yes,”T replied fiI have heard of Irish Setters quite olten. Sho ijs:3teii that Cnr e was no such breed, and we agreed to leave it to my son, who used to have a little chicken ranch of his own. “Yes,” He said, e is a breed called Irish Setters, : they are dogs.” Of course, I had to give it up; but how in the world I got the idea in my nead that there was a breed of chickens caiied Irish Set ters I don’t kno-v. unless it was through reading the following.story about Irish Be: -: An American spending his holi days in Ireland fell into conversa tion with a native who was feeding his hens. “I guess, Pat, you haven’t as good hens here as in the States.” “Perhaps not,” said Pat. “I’ll tell you,” said the Yankee, “about a hen my mother had. She went out one day and ate a feed ot corn and returned and laid twelve eggs. She went out the next ,day and ate a feed of corn and laid twetve more eggs. She went out the third and returned and laid twelve more eggs. She went out the fourth day and hatched seven ty-two chicks out of thirty two iggs. Now that is the kind of hens we have in the States.” “Well,” said Pat, “I’ll fell you about a hen my mother had. She ate a feed of sawdust, thinking it was oatmeal. She went to her nest and laid a plank twelve feet long. She ate more sawdust the next day and again laid a plank twelve feet long.. Again, on the. third day, she ate more sawdust and laid an other twelve-toot plank. She sat on the three planks and hatched three kitchen chaiis, a sofa, one table and a ' mahogany chest of drawers. Now,” said pat, with a twinkle in his eye, “that is the kind of hens we have in Ireland.” If they have hens over in Ire land that set and hatch out -such broods as that on such a cheap diet, some of them ought to be im ported over to America and called Irish Setters; that’s all I’ve got to say about it. What Do You Think of It. SQuthportNews. .Does the prohibition law prevent the sale and consumption of liquor? The consumption of whiskey in the Uuired Slates increased 450,000 gallons, beer increased 320,000 bar rels, and cigarettes 1,000,000 from July I to October I, 1912. So says the report of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. There were more cigars and cigarettes sold than ever before in history. What dp you think of it?” J Two Years for a Boy Who Stole $55,000.

Negrp Hanged After Seven Trials in the Courts. Bdrrell Oates, a negro convicted of murder, was hanged Friday at Waxahatchie, Texas, after one" of the most notable legal incidents in Texae jurisprudence. Oates, with out money or influential friends, secured seven trials and was the cause of two changes in Texas sta- tutes dtiring his long and remark-, r.ble legal fight against the charge of murder. Oates’ fight for life was made all the more remarkable by the fact thatievery one of the seven juries IouUd him guilty ol murder and six of them condemned him to deat|i. The other jury, being un able]to agree on the penalty,- caus ed a mistrial, although declaring the inegro guilty. Technicalities andht times more serious legal er rors Were used repeatedly to secure new-trials for Oate?, The sixth triabwas declared void because the jury;in Writing his verdict inad vertently omitted the words, ‘in fiist degree’ in finding Oates guilty. ... ?

How about the Davie County Street Fair next fall. Better teg n to talk P uptight now. More factories, good roads, a buil ding and loan association, and more people is what we need just at this time. - Only one week left in which to do your Christmas shopping and renew your subscription. Don’t put off either as they are both important. It seems that Josephus Daniels is going to get a piece of pie. He cer tainly deserves it. for no one in the state did more lying than The News and Observer during' the last cam paign. ______________ The Hornet, a Democratic paper published at Fork Church, says that apples have dropped 10 cents on the bushel since Wilson has been elected President. Better not tell the apple growers about that. MAKE OUR CHRISTMAS A HAPPT ONE. Wewant about 500 of our sub scribers who are owing us to come forward or send us their renewal be fore Christmas so that we can enjoy the happy season along with our other brethren. It takes cash to run a paper and we feel sure our friends will help us make those we owe hap py by paying us so that we may pay others. The Record still retails at 50 cents a year, and is the best paper ki the county regardless of price. We want every man in the county who does not now take the paper to send jus their subscription before Christmas. Wewant at least 300 new subscribers to begin the year with, and 600 old ones to renew. Will you help us? We feel sure :that you will feel better if you will give us a call and hand us a life preserver. Thereareafewpeople in this city who do not take our paper, but the number grows smaller weekly. Don’t let the New Year roll around ■ and find your name off our books. The Record has helped others, it will help you. The editor takes this method of serving notice on the public that af ter Jan. 1st, he will be unable to ac cept any wedding invitations. It gives us much pain to make this sad announcement, but owing to the fact that there are but two or three dress suits in town, neither of which fits our lank figure, we feel con strained to be frank with our friends and thus save both themselves and us untold pain and mortification Our after dinner, supper and break fast clothes have utterly collapsed, and not having the wherewithall to purchase new garments, we will hereafter remain at home after the shades of evening decends upon our quiet village. An honest confession |s said to be good for the soul, and we feel better already. In conclus ion will say that there is always space in our paper to publish notices of such happy events, when they are mailed us with postage paid on them. If anything happens that we can see Oiir tWay clear to purchase or bor row clothes fitting the occasion, we will issue a special edition of The Record and inform our readers of the fact.

The Ealeigh News and Observer reports that the Superintendent of the penitentiary sold 838 bales of cotton a few days ago that was pro duced on the Btate. farms. The article further states that the majority of the board consider ed it wise to sell at this time. Isn’t it strange that a Democrat- ic board should have considered it wise to sell cotton before President elect Wilson and a Democratic Con gress takes control of the reins of government1? If they are expect iug better times under Wilson, wonder why they didn’t hold the cotton for a better price? It would appear that they haven’t any faith in the Democratic claims.—Cauca &ian.

And four years later not withstanding that flamboyant fiasco, as able a man as Samuel J. Tilden was found to lead the party and he came within one election vote of the prize. And was ever a party in more demoralyzed plight than the De. mocracy in the spring of 1S96., just prior to the nomination of Mr. Bryan? Mr. Cleveland had made an unprecedented mess of things, and the party seemed adrift and sinking. But Mr. Bryan, an inex perienced skipper, took command, and steered the craft to port. These who remained true through all that dark time held firmly to the old name and to the traditions, Fhey remembered their patron saints, and still called Ioa Jefferson and Jackson, Have the Bepublicans no great names or traditions?

In his remarks to the preachers applying for , admission into the Conference akFayetteville, Bishop Denny emphasized the importance of the life separated from the world upon the partVof ministry, of pu rity, of language, freedom from debt, temperence in eating and the avoidance of ,idleness and of em ployment that is not benefibial. Speaking of debt, Bishop Denny said that a preacher had far better sell everything he owns aud pay his debts than leave debts in any community he has served. He said he had sold his bookcase and sofa on one of his appointments in ord^r to avoid leaving a debt. “The most sensative nerve in the body politic,” he said, “passes through the pocketbook.” The bishop said further that when he was a very young man he resolved he wonld never allow any man to make; his ear a sewer-pipe for filthy language and that he had held to his resolve. He said he wished suctra revival of purity of speech would come that every word men uttered would be suitable to be spoken in the presence of an angel. Speaking of abstiance, BishopDenny said he did not know much about diatetics aud had nev er seen any man who did;, but that he was certain that what a man does not eat never will hurt him and there is much more danger irom over eating than undereating. —Ex. ■ 41'8 TR A D E ST.

Ad Time is Ripe to Bridge Yadkin. That the time is ripe for linking For syth and Davie together with a steel bridge across the Yadkin River, is the opinion of Mr. C. A.-Hartman, one of the newly-elected Board of County Commis sioners of Davie, who is spending a while in Winston-Salem. And Mr. Hartman is in faver of building the bridge acrsss the river just below Hall’s Ferry, on what isdec'ared to be the best road leading directly from Winston Salem to Mocksvilie, taking in the fine farming section around Farmington, Mr. Hartman’s home. Not only does Mr. - Hartman favor the bridge, but he made his campaign for el ection as commissioner with the under standing among the citizens of Davie that he would do all in' his power to have the bridge built during the adminstration of the present board. He is confident that the commissioners of Davie will do their part in the construction, and is anxisus for the Forsyth board to take up the mat ter and decide just what Forsyth is willing to do about the proposition. That the bridge would serve an immense number of farmers who wish to come to Winston-Salem to bring their tobacco and produce is best illustrated by the fact that on last Monday fifty loadedwagonsbound for Winston-Salem crossed the river at Hall’s Ferry, thirty crossed Tuesday and twerify 'five Wednesday. There is no bet ter farming section in all this part of the State than is the Farmington section of Davie county, and most of the farmers of that Iocaiity are partial to Winston-Salem as their trading place, and would frequent this city by the score if a bridge were now spanning the Yadkin and if a good road were built to the river. Mr. Hartman favors tlie construction of a modern Sand- clay road through Davie and in Forsyth. Just such a project has been put through by Rowan county— Winston Journal..
