NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY,'DECEMBER 4 1929.NUMBER 2 i Disaster relief given following the vest Indies hurricane which- struck Porto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Florida, as well as other islands in the Caribbean Sea, presented one of the largest tasks yet undertaken by the American Red Cross. In Florida, wiere 1,810 lives were lost, the Red Cross aided 41,236.persons. In Porto 1 0 aad the Virgin Islands, where the oss of Iife Wa's not-so great, but where no devastation was almost complete, too Red Cross aided 731,712 persons. Destruction of the coffee plants was too gravest loss, and tbe Red Cross mod in rehabilitating this industry employing' 67,000. j®jtivegJ;o clear Mffee-land, so tfiat Eeplanting go forward immediately,. thus and wages for thou- the -------= r^ r . . a t H I oald EO forw;land poster 9H Wding work Delving Into Vifginia Voting. The majority by which the.Dern- ocratsic ticket in Virgiuia won over the coalition ticket — Republicans plus Canuonites or anti-Smith—'was about 70,00 0, which, as. noted in these columns, is not far froni the normal Democratic majority in re- ceut years, 1928 of course excepted. But when it comes to figures; there is no end to the delving that may be done. There was no anticipa tion here that the Virginia result would go by without various .inter pretations: ■ ■: North Carolina politicians, whose business it is, presumably, to keep up with these affairs, ought to keep up with these affairs, ought to be interested in an analysis of the situation supplied the New York Times by Mr. J. N. Aiken, writing from Richmond, Mr. Aiken nptes these facts: While the size of the Pollard ma jority surprised even the most san guine Democratic workers, it ik nevertheless true that in proportion to the size of its vote the Republi can party scored larger gains’ than did the successful Democrats. ' The total vote, with 43 precincts still Ao report* stood at 265,0 65. With the missing precincts accounted for it may easily reached 270 000. This figure" is^some 64,000 above the vote in the gubernatorial election of. J 92'?, which ranked until ^this VerJr asJhe most bitterly contested state election in recent Virginiahis-K ■ '■ :■ :V/-£ •:tory, : ^ _..... ^ -A_; ;; ©'f' thish4,odb increase, 3 *5006' is accounted for on the 'Republican side, while 33,000 is credited to the Democrats. In gross gains, the two parties ' are, therefore, almost even.. But measured in percentages, the Republican party gained almost twice as did the Democrats. The coalition vote this year represented an increase of 45 per cent over the 69.000 votes cast for the two Re publican candidates in 1921, while the Democratic vote .represented a ghin of only 25 per cent. While the coalition made a much poorer showing than had been ex pected, it becomes evident, assum ing that those who voted the coali tion ticket this year will adhere permanently to the Republican par ty, that Republican strength in Virginia has been appreciably in creased. Whether the assumption on'which this conclusion is bassd is well taken remains to be disclos ed, It is, however, to be noted that Republican leaders expect such consummation and that anti- Smith leaders are much of the same opinion. Wnat this increase in voting sug gests is that such a situation as was presented to Virginia in the 1929 campaign will evoke more interest and cause more voting than any thing Virginia knows except the addition of a national interest as in the 1928 campaign. Last week’s vote was the heaviest Virginia has ever reported except that of l&St r. fttoiaiw actually only about 34,000 short of the uuparalled vote of last year. Theincreuseover a normal gu- bernational election is due, of course to the fact that this year’s cam paign .was tied on to—or an attempt was made to tie it on to last year’s issues and to the further fact that it is contained of itself certain issues of the same type as those which last year stirred the electo rate. It would appear, therefore, that Virginia has a large group ot citizens who will always vote with the Republicans when those issues arise. As to whether they will vote WithrIhePRepublicans in future con .tests when such issues are not pre sent, only a prophet can tell, Pro bably a large number ot that group ,car, will. , Certainly it has been true i)i North Carolina that the departue of a wing from-the party body has meant, in many individual cases, permanent departure and allegence with the other party—witness.- the history of Populism; Ifthis is ttie, it would follow that the 1929 campaign has brought many accessions to Republican ranks or has further cemented, those who joined Republican ranks last year. And that would mean that in the long run the 1929 campaign, despite the defeat it brought, will give new strength to Virginia Re publicans; Did the party leader ship work that out in advtnce? Was there subtlety enough in that leader ship to form the Cabnouite con nection this time not to win-in 1929 but to add to party member ship for future campaigns? If the answer is yes,’ political leadership to form the Caunonite connection this time not to win in 1929 but to add to party leadership for future campaigns? If the answer is yes, political leadership must be given credit for the greater strategic abili ty than politicians usually ’receive; or deserve.—Greensboro News. I .

WThere is the Mocksville motorist who hasn’t at some time or another wondered what actually becomes of automobiles after they reach the point where human ingenuity can’t coax them to run an inch'faither.

It will be equipped to se parate the metal in old machines worth saving from the waste' ma terial; to reclaim the hair in cush ions and bale it for further use; to smooth out "such metal sheets as can be salvaged and to melt up such as cannot. In a word, it will be a modern flivver reduction plant, and will solve New York City’s problem of wlwt to do witli wortii* less junk that once rolled over the streets as autos. But that still leaves us wondering what will be come of the. millions of others .an nually falling into that class in other parts of the country. Mail Christmas packages early.

It h„ipo«ii’le to picture the amaze- KOt and consternation that amoth- , t(ie colonies when It was definite- WWD tliat the army had been de- an(j broken. There had been I concern In the public mind as to J8 outcome of the campaign. ijiie Iirsi uncertain news was re- II ed by Colonel James Innes, com- Lder !ii Fort Cumberland. This L on July eleventh, two days after battle. He immediately started ILsses to tlie neighboring provinces I aDnoiinte his grave fear that the jrav Iiati met with reverses. While L e messengers were carrying the LtOuBdiUL' news the wagoners, who Md first Hed the bloody field, were Lnniiis to reach the outlying settle- tat*. Governor Morris was at Car- lie iviien a half-starved, half-mad IVoner !lodged his exhausted mount Ito the settlement and began crying L that Uraddock had been defeated. Lt the entire army had been anni lliatcd, and that he, the wagoner, was I e only survivor. fJIliI provinces were stunned. On sixteenth another messenger frousiit further details. General Brad- IociVas dead and Had been buried I Great Meadows on the fourteenth, L the army and Dunbar’s wagons fad passed over his grave to hide it (Lid Hie savages. On the day this |an brought his dismal budget, Gov ernor Monis sent out a call for the |sseinbl.v to raeet him in Philadelphia In the "twenty-third, so as to permit buuliar to take the offensive and pre lent the triumphant enemy from over- IilinDin;: our frontiers and from bring- i tlie ax to die eastern settlements. Dunbar promptly announced bis de termination to be done with forest Bslitina; and he marched his twelve Iundred soldiers to Philadelphia and left three Imndred wounded men at Sill’s creek. His army went Into bunp on Society hill, and In vain did Sboreiw .Uorris urge him to send a few men to patrol the Susquehanna. Enough refugees came in ta swell the Srmy to fifteen hundred, and without Baising his hand to protect the border Bunbar the Tardy sailed with this Jiorce for New York in October. Stupefaction was replaced by dis may as this, the only fighting force In the south, war withdrawn. In very truth tvere the colonies aroused to the realization that they must protect themselves by doing their own fight ing, and do longer depend opoD over seas armies. Once Dunbar's Inten tions to withdraw from the province Iiecaine known, Governor Dinwiddle ntged Pennsylvania and Maryland to unite wiih Virginia In building a Srcmg fort at the Great crossing or on Great Meadows. This wise plan for protecting the border came to cothing because of the colonies’ in ability to overcome factional jealous ies and to agree as to the division of the expense* labor and the like. So we drifted into three years of rapine and slaughter. I reached Carlisle the day after Governor JIorris started for Philadel phia My wounds, aggravated Dy ex posure, forced me to travel slowly; tffld my efforts to find some trace of the Dinwold girl permitted many sur vivors to pass me. Mine was old news when I did arrive. In Carlisle I fell In with three rangers who were cut «2 from the ford when the final rout filled the narrow road. They were forced to advance north, or close to Ooquesne, to escape the savages They Md concealed themselves in the woods near the Allegheny, and from what- they had observed I learned how five hundred of Pontiac’s Ottawas had Quarreled with the French over the division of the booty, and bad thrown back the ax and bad killed .and scalped two Frenchmen very dose to the spot where my informants were hiding, I recovered from my wounds and became active in preparing a defense aSainst the red swarms we knew Wuld soon be npon us. As rapidly as Possible a string of forts was built Jrorn the Delaware and Susquehanna to the Potomac. There were Fort Bedford at Uea’s Town, Port Ligonia on the site of the old Uidian town of J-oyai Hanna in Westmoreland conn- J' Fort Loudon at the foot of Blue “untain, F®rt l.owther at Carlisle d'atuhers’ fort a few miles west of that town. Aad there were other forts, as well Bumerous small blockhouses, erect- . urlnE the next three years.

In October a mixed force of French and Indians was burning and scalping within forty miles of the ferry. Settlers were frantically flee ing to the east, or doggedly fortlng themselves on learning that escape was cut oft. I went out with forty- five men from the ferry and helped bury fourteen mangled bodies. Great cove was destroyed. By December, the Indians were on tbe Lehigh behind the Blae moun tains, where they killed a hundred people and burned many cabins. Beth lehem prepared to resist an attack. Ac about the same time another band penetrated to the Schuylkill In Berks county and did devil’s work. For fifty miles around • Easton the country was devastated. So widespread were the activities of the savages that hun dreds of people fled Into the Jerseys, some carrying their household goods and driving their cattle; others vain ly offering half of all they possessed In an effort to save something. It was a characteristic of this un equal fighting that- the Indians took but few prisoners. Thirty-six houses and the church at Gnadenhutten were burned, although Lieutenant Brown and a company of rangers forted themselves In the cburch and held it until it was fired. The Juniata was visited early in January and many people were murdered within two or three miles of Fort Patterson. Even the back districts of Chester and Philadelphia counties were en dangered, and four hundred German farmers from the latter county marched into Philadelphia city and demanded that the assembly grant them some protection. These settlers should have remembered how men of their race defeated Joseph Seely, Berks county candidate for sheriff, in the October election, because he favored military training. Throughout the winter, the savages continued very active, wliicl) was un usual, as during the snow months tbe frontier always bad experienced a re lief from attacks and bad slept sound ly. The woods from the Juniata to Shamokin were filled with ferocious red men, who killed and burned. In the latter part of the'month a hun dred Indians at Kittanning, includ ing -not a few who had been loyal to Engfctnd until the defeat oh the Mon- ongataela, left to raid the Coococlie- ague settlements and forts Shirley and Uttleton. I was one of those who rod^ ahead to spread the alarm, and I experienced enough thrills to last me several lifetimes. And so the bloody story might go on through volumes. Settlements in flames and the rough roads crowded with terrified families. Scarcely a night could one scan the horizons and not see the red flares that told of some cabin or hamlet being wiped out Not until Gen. John Forbes’ ex pedition in the summer of 1758, when he marched to Duquesne with fifty- eight hundred men and a thousand wagons, did we begin to have a rest from the butcheries. But General Forbes would have nothing to do with the ill-fated Braddock road and. wise ly followed the central path through Carlisle, Shippensburg, and over Laurel mountain. The long rifles were proving their worth and were soon to take Canada from the French. During all this strife and these mis erable scenes, I endeavored to do my share in exacting a penalty from the red men. For two weeks I worked with Captain Jack, the Black Uunter of tbe Juniata. But when that river was harried be became such a mad man and would take- such . foolhardy risks that I left his band. Yet we made some rare killings In tbe short time we were together. Tbe danger was never so great, however, as to cause me to forget, the Dinwold girl. In my dreams and In my waking hours I could see her tugging at young Morgan’s band and striving to come back and face the trouble out In my company. At nlgbt I would awake with her voice in my ears, calling me "mister.” Once I dreamed we were with the baggage train and she was saying “Kiss me.” I required many a bloody foray against Shawnee and traitorous Dela ware to wash that last dream thin. So ■; there was never a day, when I was meeting with some one new, that I did not make diligent tnquiry for her. Bot so many families had been ex terminated, so nmDy pedigrees en.ded, that only by chance could I hope for news from the iritch-glrl. An elfish boyish creature In 'reality, but my separation from her translated her Into some symbol of the border, some thing fearfully desirable. It became, a mania'with me to'find her, and yet- my place was on tie frontier. On relief sallies, on retreats and on scouting trips, I asked of all I met if they knew of one called Daniel Morgan. Some professed to have met him, but none knew about a young woman dressed as a man. At the end of my service with General Forbes I was as ignorant as to whether she be alive or dead as I had been when I recovered my wits at the edge of the clearing along the Allegheny, where the dead bung from the twelve torture-stakes. And I missed the Onondaga. God only knows how I missed him and his brave tieari when oa some lonely faring, I missed Crornit In a lesser degree, and often wished his terrible hands could help me decide some uneven argument. Aye, I missed them. But it was Round Paw of the Wolf clan whose absence ate into my soul., Ued or white, never was there a- stronger comrade than he. The lone ly Monongahela sings his requiem, but in my heart he shall ever bave a high place. Many a good comrade have I had In my day, but none so dear to my memory as the Wolf man. Gone to meet his particular god as has many another, and all because one man did not understand. Worn by incessant hardships and seriously troubled by the old arrow wound in my arm, I returned to Car lisle, uncertain as to what I should do next. The settlers were preparing to follow General Forbes’ army and make a new beginning along some pleasant stream, gut I, the Iasji ot„ thef House of, the Open Band, lia’d* no desire to build a cabin and take'root in one spot. The strange unrest, which had been only satisfied by tbe turmoil of border warfare, reduced me to a sad state of nerves. How could I ever be content on one creek or in one valley, with the, memories of the MonongaheIa haunting me? With the vision of that small wistful face staring back at me, I rode a skeleton of a horse into Carlisle. Perhaps it was a weakness of spirit that impelled me to surrender to the sudden longing to visit my old borne and once more look through the gate of my father’s garden. I scarcely re member my mother, but perhaps this longing was the divine calling of the maternal in me. Like my horse, I was scarcely more' than a skeleton. I borrowed a suitable horse of fl' stranger and did not marvel at bis trust I d me. At times I assured my self it was but a whim, that I would soon be doubling on my tracks and seeking service In the north; and yet I rode on. The memories stirred up by the jour ney were painful. Unlike that other visit, the Onondaga was no longer my companion; and yet at times I fancied he walked at my stirrup, his chest showing the fresh white paint of the round paw of the woit Id my more rational moments I felt old and out of place. It was when I brooded over the witcb-girl’s disap pearance that I felt a great, empti ness of heart which made all the plans of youth but little account. I had no wish to look on Josephine again and tell her poor Busby’s fare well message; and 'yet something drew me to the town. (TO BH CO NTIN UED .)

Peculiarity -in Home o f Thomas JefiFersoA Monticello, historic home of Thom as Jefferson, has many oddities whicli excite the popular interest, says an article in Tathfinder Magazine. For example, it is a home without beds. The master slept (and died) on a cot of his own contrivance located In an opening between his study and what should have been his bedroom. He was able to Jump out of it into either room. The cot was so arranged that it was raised to the celling during the daytime to leave a passageway be tween the two rooms. There are unfounded tales that Jefferson was afraid of his life and took this means to. insure safety. One basis for this, probably, is tbe secret room directly above his bed which has porthole-like openings in the walls, formerly covered by pictures, through which supposed bodyguards- could fire down on intruders' if need be. f - *?.ri • > Immense Poultry Farm A million pounds of chicken feed is( used every year on a poultry farm; near Los Angeles, one of the largest^ in the world.

Becnuse of their pleasunt tartness, cooked apples are an acceptable ac companiment to any of tlie usual cuts of pork—nmsts, chops or sausage. Tbe apples iieed not always be made into sauce, however. Sometimes serve them baked, or fried, or glazed. Or have an apple dessert. Other slightly acid fruit flavors may take the place of ap ples for a change—fried pineapple, for instance, or cranberry sauce in the winter months, or tart jellies like cur rant or bench plum. Success in preparing pork cuts, says the bureau of home economies of the United States Department of Agricul ture, depends on regulating the heat so as to cook the meat well done to the center of the piece and at the same lime to keep the outside from becoming hard and dry. Moderote cooking temperature is best after the surface has been seared to develop rich flavor. It is neither necessary nor desirable to add water to pork roasts during cooking, llanis, shoul ders and loins have sufficient fat on the outside to haste the lean meat, and so do not dry out when roasted fat side up at moderate temperature in open pus without added water, For a pork loin roast have the butcher crack the hones so that it can Ce carved in slices between the ribs.

When the mercury in the meat thermometer registers 185 degrees Fahrenheit, the meat is well done to the center.

Westoru Newspaper Union.) ♦>Proper H eight for K itchen E quipm ent | Is your permanent kitchen equip ment substantial, easy to keep in or der, carefully grouped and set at such height that you do not have to stoop or strain your muscles as you work? Pink, stove, and worktable should be near together so as to save steps. Scattered equipment means walking many unnecessary miles during the course of a year, the' United States Department of Agriculture has esti mated. If the kitchen table is on casters it can be easily moved where needed, thus saving steps. The various kitchen tasks can be done most comfortably at different heights. Sinks especially are often set too low: 30 inches from the bot tom of the sink to the .floor is consid ered good average height Experi ment until you find the best height for your table, ironing - board, and washtubs. The table can be raised on blocks hollowed out to fit the legs, and with a little ingenuity you can adjust the ironing board and tubs. so that all had a chance to dance. Minna danced-a lovely dance with the Yioliij who .hummed softly and sweetly" as he -danced. The First Pieces were dancing around with some of the Scales. Minna particularly liked the look of one C Major Scale who was like his relatives and yet appeared finer and of greater dignity and simplicity than the others.. He was dancing with a charming little First Piece. The First Piece, Minna noticed, was writ ten in the C Major key. Perhaps that was why they had so much in common, or were in such harmony as Miss Drumble, her teach er. would say. There were other First Pieces, to be sure, but Minna watched this cou ple more than any of the others. Even as she danced with her different part ners, she watched them. They were dancing together all the time. The tunes to which'they danced were many. How gay it all was! Minna was glad that' she had on her good blue dress. Her every-day dress had become so shabby that she had dressed up in her better one for her music lesson. When she had started on her walk she had thought of going borne to change into the old one, but then she had decided she hadn’t much time, and that she wouldn’t really hurt it. How thankful she was now that she had not gone home to put on her old one. The ball was wonderful. Such love ly music, so bright and so jolly, such delightful, graceful, interesting danc-' ing. ((E), 1929, Western Kewspaper Union.) H O T C O C O A G O O D COLD DAY DRINK In cold weather It Is good for the younger children tc have a hot drink before starting for school in the morn ing. Cocoa made with milk is both a food and a beverage, and most chil dren enjoy it for breakfast ' The United States Department of Agricul ture recommends cocoa as a suitable addition to the hot, school lunch. When it is not possible.-for the chil dren to obtain it at school, the mother may serve it when the chi'dren get home in the afternoon, or as part of the evening meal. Few adult^ will refuse an appetizing cup of eocqa for lunch or supper, when dropping S In to call.i-or when returning late at/night from a cold trip. \ - Make cocoa with whole or skiiii milk if possible. Allow two level teaspoon fuls of cocoa and about two Jevel tea spoonfuls of sugar to each Half pint of milk. While bringing the milk to the scalding point mix the cocoa nnd sugar to a paste with a little cold milk, or water. Add to the hot milk, bring to the boiling point, and boil for about a minute. To prevent scum from rising, beat briskly with an egg beater. Some persons like the addi tion of a few drops of vanilla. Whipped cream or a marshmallow may be floated on top of eacn cup. r W inter By JULIA BOTTOMLEY The thing that intrigues about the, furred cloth jacket suits, which are the smart note for nearly winter, is that they dare to be so strikingly original. -» In the yesteryears, a suit was mere ly a suit lacking for the most part that “variety” which "is the spice of life.” How different the modern suit! It lias become' a creature of imagina tion. in the evolving of which genius is apparently taking its fling. It is just such fascinating types as the “one in this picture which is caus ing the fashionable world to pay hom age to the fur-trimmed suit as a “thing of beauty” as. well as costume of exceeding chic. This striking model is made of brown verona cloth, its collar of brown caracul interpreting an entirely new and decidedly flattering silhouette. The bordering on the coat repeats the graceful circular movement of the col lar, There is the buckle fastening. It n is the latest-much more satisfactory and smarter than the button-and-loop idea. The close-fitting brown felt tur ban with its one-side flare, crowns this costume with a-definite style touch. The vogue for thin flat furs Is prov ing an inspiration to designers to de sign, for the reasons that supple peltry,, such as beayer, seal, lapin, broadtail, Persian lainb, astrakhan, galyak, caracul and such, yield to ma nipulation as gracefully as any fabric. The smartest of the smart on the daytime costume list is the suit of tweed for sports, and broadcloth or velvet for dressier wear, which is col lared and cuffed with some one of the furs , just mentioned. Competing with the flat fur trims,, to no small degree are the showy long-haired varieties, chief among which are badger fox, wolf and lynx. Not all suits are black, not all suits are brown, although many of them are, but there is also a most delectable col or program mapped out for the furred cloth smt, which includes-deep wines. rich greens and very new Dalilia and eggplant shades. A fascinating type of suit or en semble, if you so please to call it, which has made its debut this sea son, exploits color and novelty In its every detail. We refer to the suits of loose-woven tweed which have an interwoven border which introduces-a multiplicity of typical gay autumn, and winter shad®. The bordering is neatly finished with a selvedge which is featured in a trimming way. Of the same tweed the designer fashions • I * * * * ■ * * , a draped toque which displays the selvedge to advantage. In some instances a pock- etbook and a boutonniere of the self- tweed adds the final touch of cblc and ciiarm. < 1929, Western Newspaper Union.)

Boston, Mass.—One man, ,believed responsible tor the murders of fifty men and women who crosset! the movements of a gigantic vice ring which operated in several eastern states, is nnder surveillance by de partment of justice men and his ar rest is imminent. “The head of the ring, charged by police with ordering the assassination of Sam Reinstein in a hotel here Sep- tember 13 and the killings of half a hundred other persons during several years, lives in Easton. Pa. Record of ,Butchery. His record of butchery, with men and women shot down in cold blood just as was Iteinstein, is appalling and neither federal nor local authorities acquainted with criminals and their activities can picture the cold, calcu lating murders which the bead of the vice ring ordered. This information was given out by Assistant Federal Attorney Thompson, who made a final gesture to clean out the white slave traffic in New England by obtaining six warrants for ring leaders and sending men-into the south end to arrest those wanted. So care less had the ring become in their wholesale murdering that enough le gal- loopholes have been left open for the commonwealth to send the man responsible to the chair for the murder of Sam iteinstein. Iteinstein, according to authorities was the last of fifty victims who dou ble crossed the “master mind.” as he is termed by police, and subsequently paid the penalty as did the others. Like iteinstein. the others were killed by hired assassins. In his case police name JeIT and Moe Neuman. New York gangsters. Officials Corrupted. The leader who ordered the killings at one time operated twenty places in Pennsylvania, and controlled a cir- Shot Down in Cold Blood. euit which ran into New York, Phila delphia. Bethlehem. Easton and Allen town. _ The difficulty in bringing this man to court on a murder charge, officials pointed out, is in the manner in which public officials throughout certain sec tions have Iieen corrupted. .While po lice have had evidence linking him with the murders before, it has been difficult to obtain action which would take him into custody. The murder of Gertrude Ruby out side of York. Pa., November 11, 1927. occupied the attention of Assistant District Attorney -Doyle for a time. The district attorney of York coun ty asked his aid in solving the murder. Harry Malaga, one of several persons Jield in Jail now in connection with the workings of the-ring, has re fused to talk of the case. Under federal charges with, Harry Malaga is Elizabeth Martin of Easton. Pa., now on her way to this city. She is under guard of department of jus tice agents, for it has been learned attempts have been made to reach her before she is questioned by fedeial and Iocttl authorities.

GULDEN TE X T—Thou ebatt love thy neighbor as Ihvselr PRIMARY TOPIC— Being' a Good Neighbor. JUNIOR TOPIC— Being a GoodNeighbor. INTERM EDIATE AND SENIUK TOP- IC— H °lv Io Be a Good Neighbor.TOUNG PEO PLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Modern Good Sam aritan: W ho Ia He? It Is difficult to discover a thread of unity running through the texts se lected by the lesson coinm iitee. T he teacher should choose betw een Clieint making a study of Hie one best suited to the needs of the class. If the use of all the texts he desired, tlie teach er will be under the necessity of se lecting the verses from each unit best suited to the needs of the class. P erhaps the nearest approach to unity of treatm ent of the texis in the light of th e . lesson .subject would be the follow ing: 1. W ho Is My N eighbor? (L ube 10:29. 30). . T he parable of the Good S am aritan m akes clear w ho is a neighbor and also w hat it m eans to be a neighbor. T his destitute and w ounded m an left on the highw ay by the robbers, need ed a neighbor. My neighbor there fore, is the one who needs my help— W helher he lives next dooi or on Ihe other side of the w orld.' II. W hat Being a Neighbor M eans (L uke 10:31 37). O ur prim ary concern is not— who ts my neighbor? but w hose oeighbor am I? Being a neighbor is: L To be on the lookout for those In need of help (v. 33). 2. To have com passion on the needy (v. 33). H um an need called forth C hrist’s com passion. AU who have H is spirit will be likew ise moved. 3. To give to those in need (v. 34). T his means, not only to give money but also to m inister to the poor. 4. To bind up w ounds (v. 34). 5. To set the helpless ones on our beasts w hile w e w alk (v. 34). 6. To bring to the inn and take care of the unfortunate (v. 84); 7. G enuine love I s ' not spasm odic, b u t'co m p letes its service. 8. -To give money (v;- 35). It costs much to be a neighbor. Love is the most expensive thing In the w orld. It cost Gnd Ilis only Son; It Cbst C hrist His life. III. T he T est of Pure Religion (Jam es 1 :2G, 27). 1. T he tongue is bridled (v. 2C). T his m eans th at those w ho have experienced Christ will speak w ith discretion. 2. Sym pathizing w ith and helping those in need (v. 27). T h e widow and orphan a re the sym bols of helplessness and need. T hose w ho have tru e pity will visit such and render necessary aid. 3. K eep unspotted from the world (v. 27). T h e one w ho has truly experienced th e life from God will separate him self from the world. IV. Judgm ent of th e N ations (M att. 25:31-4(5). It is difficult to -se e w hat bearing this text has upon neighborly respon sibility as It is a picture of the judg m ent w hich Is to tak e place a t the end of tills age. L T h e Judge (v. 31). H e is the Son of Man who died to redeem the hum an race. H e will then be clothed w ith m ajesty and pow er, occupying H is throne as Judge. 2. T he tim e tv. 31). It will take place w hen the Lord com es In H is glory, accom panied w ith a retinue of glorious angels. 'I t will take place after He has gathered the elect rem nant of Israel. 3. T he place (v. 31). F rom Zechariah 14:1-5 w e learn that it will be. in or near Jerusalem . Since, according to Luke 1:31-33, C hrist is to sit upon the throne of H is fath er David, w e conclude th at the place and the throne w ill be real. 4. T he people judged (vv. 32-45). They will he the living nations upon the earth after the translation of the church (I Thess.' 4:10, 17). They will be people unto whom the gospel of the kingdom shall be preached (M a tt 24:14). T hose who preach ’his gospel will be Jew s (Rev. 7 and U nm ans 11). They will be the breth ren of the Lord in the Hesh. 5. T he issue of the judgm ent (v. 46).(1) T h e sheep. Israel, shall enter upon their inheritance of the prepared kingdom . (2) The goats, rejecters of Christ, go into everlasting tire prepared for the devil and his angels. SOME TIMELY f CHRISTMAS GIFTS (SMt W h a t t o G iv e H im A G low ing Service T here is no greater o r , m ore glow ing service in th e w oild than that ol recovering from the hum an refuse pile those who have been throw n there by a w orld's bitter condem ns iion, and giving to them lliat new hope th at will “ turn them from darkness t< light r f d from the nower- of S atan jD to God. * B eneatb the H um blest G arb Gentleness and a kind bean are oft en found beneath the humblest garb. If he is a man of discriminating taste here is something worthwhile to give him for Christmas—a brass magazine and newspaper holder, de signed by that master American gen ius whose modernistic conceptions are creating such a sensation in art gift sections. The Diana motif In the picture is one of the masterpieces which is attracting the attention of connoisseurs. Other unique and char acteristic conceptions include lamps, the sea gull motif best known, also such intriguing articles in brass or bronze such as doorstops, smoking sets, candlesticks and so on. N o n b r e a k a b l e T o y s All dressed up In its best “bib and tucker” this amusing little duck is on its way to say “Merry Christmas” to some fortunate youngster. Non- breakable toys are the call of the modernistic juvenile world. If fancy happens not to turn to ducks, then there are stuffed giraffes, elephants and other cunningly devised creatures to intrigue the heart of the child. M u lti - D r a p e N e c k la c e s If anyone should ask you “what’s the latest in necklaces,” tell them multi-drape effects. Collections • of jewelry for holiday giving abound in dainty types which feature a trio of festoons as you see in the picture composed each of as many as eight or more strands of tiny satiny seed beads, in white or in lovely pastel tints or in vivid hues. The necklace to the left is one of the new twisted rope types which is so voguish just now. Quilted Bath Mats 1 Snre to intrigue the- woman who appreciates dainty bathroom furnish ings are colorful ready-to-applique quilted bath-mats with cushion tops. They are made of machine-quilted padding in white or pale greens, lav enders, pinks, or blues. The applique florals of colorful percale are basted on. ready to sew, which gives them the “made-it-myself” touch. Charm ing to give for Christmas! This Mother HadFrobUm A g « rule, nrilk is [bout the best food for children, bnt there are times when they are much better off wfthout it. it should always be .left off when children show by feverish, fretful or cross spells, by bad breath, coated tongue, sallow skin, indiges tion, biliousness, etc., that their stom ach and bowels are out of order. In cases like this, California Fig Syrup never fails to work wonders, by the quick and gentle way it removes all the souring waste which is caus ing the trouble, regulates the stom ach and bowels and gives these or gans tone and strength so they con tinue to act normally of their own ac cord. Children love its rich, fruity flavor and it’s purely vegetable and harmless, even for babies. Millions of mothers have proved its merit and reliability in over 50 years of steadily increasing use. A Western mother, Mrs, May Snavely, Montrose, California, says: “My little girl, Ed na’s, tendency to constipation was a problem to me until I began giving her California Fig Syrup. It helped her right away and soon her stomach and bowels were acting perfectly. Since then Tve never had to have any advice about her bowels.. I have al so used California Fig Syrup with my little boy, with equal success.” To be sure of getting the genuine, which physicians endorse, always ask for California FIg Syrup by the full name. The Bad Bachelor The brilliant and eloquent Itabbi Wise, of New York, said on his re turn from Europe: “Promotors are promoting a tunnel from Gibraltar to Africa and a tunnel under the channel from England to France, but the authorities show an enmity towards these tunnels that is foolish and harmful. “The authorities, opposing a good thing, remind me of the bachelor whose girl friend said wistfully: “!Statistics prove that marriage is a preventive of suicide.’ “ ‘Better still,’ growled the bach elor, ‘they prove that suicide is a. pre ventive of marriage.’” Welcomed Cooling Shower Memories of the tortoise-bare race, renowned In table, were revived ac Northampton, Mass., in tlie forest fire area. Out of the blazing woods, hus tled a rabbit and a turtle, almost side by side. The spray from a fire hose was swished in their direction and the two creatures appeared to welcome the cooling touch on their superheated bodies. The rabbit skipped around In circles under the shower, while the turtle stretched out its neck 'eagerly into the cascading water. Later the rabbit allowed itself to be picked up and fondled by one of the firemen. Probably Blockheads First Boy (boasting)—My pa’s got a wooden leg.

Wednesday morning about one o’clock our people were aroused by the alarm bell to witness the total destruction by fire of that old land mark, the Davie Hotel, owned and run by Mrs. James Kelly. The loss falls heavily upon the family as the building was not insured, be sides which both they and their guests lost nearly all their personal effects. Some, indeed, had narrow escapes, getting out with but one shoe on. Mrs. Kelly was severely burned while trying to save some keepsakers. JIr. Buckwalter1 of Pennsylva nia, is at W. A.

Already some of the Democratic machine are attempting to pick a flaw in the so-called Australian Bal Lt Law that was enacted by the last Legislature and some of them have even gone so far as to say that errors have been found in the acts so serious that it may invalidate the Whole Measure and elections will have to he held under the old law. The new Action law had hard enough sled ding getting adopted, with a packed Mmmittee in each branch of the leg islature opposing it but the women °f the State demanded that a decent e sction law should be passed and a Lw was finally enacted. Whether jti3any improvement over the old law remains to be seen but let the Al Smith Tammanyized Democratic •Machine begin monkeying with the Lv in an effort to put the State “ack under the corrupt, one-sided that we have been’voting under ^ Something will be raised in North Carolina bordering on an in* IurreeIion. The people of North . afuIina have been mulched out oi eir ballots I -<ng enough by a crowd a thieving election officials.—Union iLpublican. Could you refer ^fo1 a man who has three pair of shoes as being well heeled? " - Probus Vir. Daily this newspaper has been awaiting word as to the acceptance or rejection by Herbert F. Seawell of appointment as a member of the board of tax appeals. Of course, its none of our busi ness; but we had been hoping to see Mr. Seawell given something more suited to his natural bent and proven capacity than a money job at Washington. With the somewhat sneering ref erences made by some of the press to the payment of the party’s debt to the Carthage lawyer and gentle man we have no symphaty what soever. He does deservr well of his party; but he deserves better«,of his state and of his neighbors than for anybody to votce a suspicion that the appointment results from his importunity. He has a clear right to aspire to a part m the administration of his country’s affairs. He has been a good and industrious citizen, pub hclv and privately strong and clean. Ot the order of Probi Viri he has been a Republican till it hurt. If he accepts the position tender ed, to our way of thinking it will be because he wishes to show - that he bears no grudge against the par ty of his choice for its failure to seat him on the federal bench and not because he feels the need of a pension in bis ripe middle age And whether he goes to Wash ington or stays at home, Herbert Seawell is assured of something that many .tnijo apparentlyjn-ore successful BaVe never received ’in' such ,unstinted measure: the sincere respect and abiding affection of those with whom he has been as sociated in the intimate details of routine liviug.—Greensboro News Boys Of Otker Days A boy didn’t cost much in days gone by._ A^pair of corduroys, a cotton waist and a 10 cent pair of suspenders made a wardrobe that came to less than a dollar. It be ate a great deal he didn’t run up a doctor bill. A stone bruise or a bad case ot sunburn, the oue to make him limp as only a boy can and the other to make him avoid sudden slaps on the shoulder but to be exhibited, proudly to the appre ciative elect, these were his uncost ly ailments, He was competent from seven years forwaid, and when a father leaned across tftere-checKered table cloth at supper time the evening be fore circus day and, puttingaquar ter in his son’s hand, gave a quiet admonition againstgetting into trouble tomorrow, he knew that while he probably would not see his son again for 36 hours, the honor of the family would be maintained Hoovers Timely Utter ance. President Hoover’s Armistice Day address has been extremely well re ceived in this country, where his suggestion that food ships be ac corded inmunity in times of War seems to be in keeping with the modern trend to make war less brutal. What will hapjpen happen to the idea when the nations of the world begin to weigh their own selfish in terests is another matter, but it evi dences again that this country has no intention of trying to use its navy in inhuman warfare The stern declaration for naval equality, coupled with the willing* ness to reduce to any extend that others accept, again evidences the ‘pacific spirit of our government, which, in this, represents its people’s innermost desires. Accoring to the poet man wants I'iffle’hefebelow, but it is a fact that be generally wants that little to be O4Ote than bis neighbor possesses. 1#"’ ✓ - Concerning the News-! paper Business. The editor of The Record, like; other newspaper men, knows thatj running a newspaper is more or less,; the business of the public. When; it comes to what shall be printed,.-' what views shall.be expressed and what shall be plaved up. it .is very muchly the public’s business, but when it comes to paying the freight and keeping the journal operating it is much less the public interest. The only sources of revenue that; the publishers of this newsper have! comes from selling its Advertising space and subscriptions to The Re cord. It is extremely rare that anybody ask us for a free subscrip tion, but is is an everyday occur- ance when somebody comes in with a request for a free advertising, which they naively call a “notice." The advertising price of this, newspaper is fixed at what we be Iieve is a fair rate. It is necessary in order that the paper may meet its demands. Of course, we as-- sume that a certain average amount, of space will be sold for this pur pose in each issue; and reserve the rest of the paper for news matter,, which we print, for our advertisers as well as our readers, because a newspaper pulls for advertisers when its reading matter pulls the reader. Now, we don’t intend to convey the idea that our local advertisers when its reading matter pulls the reader..^ •> ‘: "Now, we don’t intend to- convey the idea that our local advertisers are free space grafters. In almost every instance where a local man has asked so much without exactl/ what was involved. Ou the other hand, there are numerous adver- tisers outside of this town who as sail us regularly With insistent de mands for free publicity. In justice, to everybody We treat all alike, and leave out the publicity stuff that has no news value. Another Christmas There is going to be another Christmas! It has not been proclaimed by any State official. No council of what ever sort, political, social or eccle siastical has decreed that on Decem ber 25, less than a month away, everybody shall celebrate Christ mas. Yetthereisnoonethinkon which more people are agreed than that there is going to be another Christmas. Christmas is the one thing about which all people are unanimous. Nobody has any thought of ignor ing Christmas. Even the most un fortunate of people will think more and more of Christmas until it comes, ev?u if th e rf' thoughts be tinged deeply with sonow and re gret that they can make no more of the day than their sad situations allow. Getting ready for Christmas means a lot of work. The mothei of a house full of children knows the labor that is involved in getting everything ready. But who ever heaid a- mother complain? No mother ever did complain at ti e work she has to do baking cakes, fixing tfie tree and buying the presents. Dad sometimes griimbles about the money it lakes, but he is seldom serious about it. He knows that the Christmas expense is one of the best investments Le can make, Christmas is coming.. Por ti e next four weeks this will be the chief though!? of all the people. Christmas proves its worth though its power to unite., all people in a common purpose. May the spirit of Christmas finally unite all people on every important interest of social life!—Twin-City Sentinel'. Pou Opposes Auto Tag Tax. 1 Thelicensetag tax on automo biles and trucks imposed in thia State should be reduced to one dollors per vehicle, R. W. Pou, county farm agent, says Mr. Pou said that the State should realize sufficient revenues froin a five cent per gallon gas tax without impos ing an extra tax running from a minimum of $12.50 to $100 on vehicles. . . Many farmers of Forsyth are hard hit by this license tax, Mr. Pau stated, adding that numbers trucks owned by farmers are only used ten or twelve times per year, :yet these farmers must pay heavy license tax or leave their machines ’under the shed. Some farmers.1 .. * have actually quit purchasing the tags and use their trucks like wag ons around the farms, but keep (them off the highways, he stated. ;3ome practically new machines !have been allowed to "rust out,” the owners rufusing to pay the ob- 'fectionable tax, the county agent pointed out. It does not cost the State any thing like $12 50 to furnish tin tags and keep a record of each automo bile, Mr. Pou stated. And the big road building program in the State is oyer. AU tags should cost ’ the ‘same regardless ot horsepower of the different machine the more gas per mile it -requires, according to Mr.! Pou. But the tax law actual ly beats down harder upon the ,al- teady'--overburdened farmer and' should by all means be remedied, he stated. “Somebody ought to start a great movement to overcome and conquer this automobile tax evil,” Mr. Pou asserted yesterday. “It’s not lair, and it’s not right. At the same, time, it keeps many poor farmers as well as other poorer •folks from using automobiles and trucks. And everytime a car or truck is driven a mile the State is drawing revenue. Why double tax. people who are already taxed to death?” —Winston Journal. The Latest' Wrinkle Since the season of good radio re ception has again rolled around most anything new about radio is interest ing reading, Within the past few weeks one of the best-known makes of automobiles has been exhibited with a complete radio set attached. Together now are two of the world’s greatest blessings. Today we can get bur ball scores, market quota tions. stock reports, weather, forcasts or jazz program as we skim along the highway AU that is needed is to operate a switch on the instru ment board—and the radio set is in operation. It tends to show what a fast age we are living in. as well as to make us wonder more than we have ever wondered if there really is anything impossible outside of finding some way to Jiispense with death and taxes.

She would feel as mucb out of place in - Alexandria as the fair Josephine would feel on the lonely shore of the Monongahela. I clucked to my horse and I rode down the King’s road, and the dust scuffed up by my tired mount’s feet lazily drifted oh to the meadow grass and settled and spoiled its sheen; just as it bad when I watched the gren adiers march up the same road on Braddock’s fatal business. Tbe town had changed none. There were the same slim and fat chimneys, the same quaint roofs of different patterns, and The double row of Liom bardy poplars before the Carlisle house. There were the. windows of the blue-and-white room. ^here Brad- dock bad drunk bis wine and rightJy bad berated the colonies for their lack of zeal.

But 00 gay uni forms decorated the approach to the Royal George and Gadsby’s; no guards owed the natives hy their Dreaise maneuvers In the market-place. I dismounted to be less conspicu ous, and witb my long rifle under my arm led my patient animal to the House of the Open Band. And bere I received a sharp surprise. The garden beyond the gate was trim and orderly. The fountain was cleaned out, and the yellow-topped, mustard was destroyed. The roof of the grape arbor had been repaired;- and the grounds reflected the tidy content my father had so dearly loved. The place was Inhabited. I turned away, feeling greatly de pressed. Now I knew I bad come on a fool’s errand. The witch-girl—a bit of thistledown before the wind- bad drifted on. I had no heart, to see the front of the bouse, and would have returned to the market-place to _bait my mount and ride away had not a woman emerged from the door to stare at-me for a second. I was for hurrying on, but she called me by name and came running after me as fast as tier mnnces and "petticoats “I knew you! lknewyou,Webster Brondl Your tall figure would be- tray you anywhere I” she cried, ex tending both bands. •‘Josephine I” I mumbled. “Mistress Hewitt,' wife of Carter Hewitt,” she corrected, and relin quished my hands to drop me a cour tesy. “You must come in and tell me where you have been and what you WMU Service have been doing. Mr. Hewitt will be back any time now. He rode to Annapolis.” So . poor Busby’s message would never be delivered. Relieved of that sad errand, there was no call for me to tarry. I mumbled something about being In a desperate burry, but she seemed to be possessed even to the point of unwomanliness. For she fairly danced before me, her blue eyes sparkling witb mischief: and she insisted: "You must come. In, mister. You just must.” , “Why do you speak like that?’ I whispered. “Why do ■ you call me ’mister’?” ' And I grasped her bands and gripped them til! her -grimace re minded me I was not handling a red savage. . “No; TH tell -yon nothing out here In the road,” she cried. “A vestry* man will be rebuking us. Besides, it’s not comely that you should hold my bands. Come I” I released her, and followed her under the grinning mask and-through tbe cool doorway. In the hall I baited and cautionsiy seated myself In a spindle-legged chair, and demanded: "Now tell me.” “Oh, Webster, It would be so ro mantic If you weren't so stupidly mat ter-of-fact. Why shouldn’t I call you ‘mister’?’ “Josephine, the devil’s in you. Have you anything to say or not?” I rose as ,if to leave. With a slgb- at having her game cut short she primly began: “I have a young ward, a refugee from the Braddock rout. She came here iD a most scandalous condition —dressect as a man! She gave your name and said yon would come to find her. She gave me your name, but she always speaks of_you as ‘mister.’ How is that for mighty re spect?” “And now? Where is she?” ! mut tered. "Why, now she should be in the garden, gathering posies for the table. You see Sir. Hewitt bought this place three days after Braddock and poor Busby marched away. He was a con firmed bachelor. He IivedJbere alone 'until'bur marriage a" year' ago this summer. Mistress Elsie from the be ginning would come here to walk In the garden because ft bad been yonr home. It promised a rare scandal. Mr. Hewitt appealed to me In great alarm. I had to marry the poor man! or else banish the wild thing. Now It’s perfectly proper for her to walk In the garden as much as she wilL I’ve lost my interest in you, Webster. You know the way down the hail?” An idiotic question. The door, open ing Into the garden, was the one i had passed through thousands of times in the old days. “You’ve been good to her, Joseph ine. You must have been mighty' good to her, or she would never have stayed.” “Rubbish I i couldn't have driven her away. She was always looking for ‘mister’ to come. She would.have made a camp In the "ardeo and lived like an Indian.” Then with mucb sad ness she added: “I hate that word— Indian. You understand, Webster— I’m sorry.” “His. last words, Joe," I blundered, giving her Busby’s message after aIL “Go find her,” she brokenly whispered. And las I made down the hall I saw her hand traveling up the balustrade, clinging to it tightly to aid'her weary feet. But sorrow was not for me this day. I’ was selfishly alive witb the joy' of anticipation. I burst through _____________ the doorway as if pursued by PontiacJ- I:}! **• 1D- KaTl specht’s orchestra. A ______^ ___,__• ,0.30 p. m. u. s.

You’ve come backi” she sobbed. And the armful of A flowers was dropped and a miracle was worked; for I found the lovely thing In my arms, her voice whimper ing over and over: “Oh, 'mister! You’ve come back!” - ITHE BND.l W riters Turned From Drugs to Authorship It may seem a far cry from the drug store to literary fame, but througboul the ages there has been a puzzling re lationship between the two. Many a youth who has started life In a phar macy has found, strangely enough, that bis. real career lies in authorship, says a writer in the American Drug gist Magazine. Aristotle was one,of the earliest of these. The Greek philosopher, son of a physician, fol lowed his father’s footsteps as a youth In those days when doctor and drug gist were one. Dante, Immortal poet, was a member of the guild of apothe caries in his native- Florence. John Keats served as a . pharmacist S' ap prentice and later graduated Trmp Anothecaries* hall. - HeDnk IbseD S the Inspiration for Ms ,“Ghosts” and "An Enemy of the pe°P!e whil? serving for,six years In aJittle Nor. weglan drug store.

Friedman to death after torturing him by jabbing, a stiletto into his face, head, and body. Twenr ty-fou” wounds were inflicted upon him. - -The robbers left the safe intact, with no further effort to get the $300 it contained, apparently frightened away as they were making. prepara tions' to blow it The body of the murdered-watch man was found an hour later: when Irving Coyle, a laundry sorter, came, to work and could not gain access to the plant He kicked at the outside door to hail the'watchman, and then called Policeman QuInn of the East Twenty-second street station. Long Trail of Blood. The two forced their way-through the garage door, searched the build ing, and finally came tUpon the body, where it had been dumped from a laundry basket on the. loading plat form. Spots of blood formed a 200-foot trail back to the watchman’s chair, placed in front of the safe, showing that the robbers seated the watchman, who was slight and no match for his assailants, as they tried' to get from him the combination of the safe. - He had been slashed In the palm of each band, under the chin, about the back, and top of his head and face. When these wounds did not obtain Torturing Him. the desired information the robbers in flicted the mortal wound in his back, police believe. • Other stains in the engine room, In front of the key fas tened to the portable time clock on the chair in which the watchman sat, on the handles of the safe door, IriTIfe dynamo room, and in the rear alley revealed to police every step in the murder and disposal of the body. Find Bloodstained Tools. In a vacant lot back of the laundry defectives found a bloodstained paper bag, containing a brace and bit, glass cutter, wire cutter, stiletto sheath, and a pair of low shoes. The tools, all new, were wrapped in two cotton shirts. Aside from possible finger prints on tbe tools! the only other clew ^o the robbers was the print of a bare right foot on the loading plat form. This discovery led detectives to be lieve that one of the robbers had re moved bis shoes to creep upon the watchman and overpower him. Police also believe the shoes and tools were thrown away by the fleeing thugs when frightened from the scene, per haps, by the groans of the dying watclnnan.

Wblle some o'f these instructions were given to Israel,-showing what God required of them, we should re-j member that He requires no less at' onr band. 1. Treatment of Hired Servants (Deut'24:14, 15). Political and industrial power have, been used through the centuries In the oppression of the poor and weak. L Oppression forbidden (v. 14).' The man who hires out is usually poor and needy. The employer should not take advantage of bis poverty. 2. Foreigners to have , the same treatment as fellow countrymen. 3. Wages to be promptly paid (v. 15). The laborer was to be paid at the end of the day. The credit system in industry ts greatly to be deplored. It places the purchaser at a disadvant age, and causes a bad psychological reaction upon tits personality. II. Fidelity to Contracts (Matt 20:1- 16). In this parable It is clearly made known that there was agreement be tween employer and employee as to wages and time. Though those em ployed at a later hour received the same wage, there was no occasion for complaint by those first employed, for they received their wage according to agreement. Fidelity to agreement, is essential in Industry. III. Unfaithful Tenancy (Mark 12:- 1-fl). In this parable a valuable vineyard was rented out to husbandmen. They not only refused to turn over the just returns to its owner, but shamefully treated his servants who were sent to collect rental. Those entrusted witb possessions and power are under solemn obligation’to make-proper re turns therefor. - . IV. Contentinent With Wages (Luke 3:141. One of the chief difficulties In the industrial world today is discontent with wages. Oftentimes workers fail to take account of the conditions of business even to the extent of going on strike and make demands as to wages which the proprietor cannot meet. Contentment with wages does not mean that one shonld Dot be llinhitioiis Io prepare himself for a more efficient service and higher wages. V. Reciprocal Duties of Servants and Masters (Eph. 6:5-9). L Servants are to be obedient to their roasters (w . 5-8).- • This! obedience should be (I) “.with fear and trembling”; that Is,.the serv ant should have a proper regard for. his master and an earnest desire to please him. (2) Witb - singleness of heart Servants should perform their tasks as though doing them for Christ’s sake. (3) Not with eye serv«- lce. Acceptable service should be'hon est, not merely to please the eye of the one who looks: on. - but as- unto Christ (4) With good will. This ex presses the spirit of service. it should not primarily be for approval or pay. Christian servants will perform their duties with the same fidelity as they would unto Christ: (5) Rewarded by the Lord (v. '8). The Lord' takes ac count' of our' service ; in the : common rounds of life and will one day re ward us accordingly. 2. Masters to be considerate (v. 9). Just 09 servants are to give whole* M M i l l it IWr« ters, so masters are to took out for the best interests of their servants. (I) Masters shonld desist from tbreatenings. (2) They should be Im partial in dealings with their .serv ants. • VI. Responsibility'of the Rich (I.Tlm. 8:17-19). Riches are possible to Christians, ' but most perilous. -God charges such: I. Nor to -be high-minded; that is, . to have a sense of superiority. ■ 2; Not to trust In the uncertainty of riches. S- Itiches to'be properly : used. . (I) Tb do good. Not . for selfish gratification, but for the welfare of others. (2) To. be- minister to good works. (3) The rich are under obliga tion to minister to tba poor and the needy. Intolerable Pride I think half the troubles for which men go slouching in prayer io'God are caused by their intolerable pride. Many of our cares are but a morbid way of looking at our privilege. We let . our blessings- get moldy and then call them curses.—Beecher. * Preparedneu He- is to be pitied, indeed, who has seen better days ahead of him, yet has made no preparation for living thein better.

By ELMO SCOTT WATSON Wj I HEN recent press .dispatches I carried'the news that a New I Yorb woman, Mrs. Tillie Hart, who for four months had withstood the siege of a wrecking crew seeking to tear down her home to make way for a $25,000,000 apart- 7 mem house, had at last capitulated and allowed the house to he demolished, there was one good reason why the story was more than merely a local New York news item. For. the disputed Imilding has right fully Iieen called “the birthplace of Sania Clans” because in it more than a hundred years ago Dr. Clement C. JIoore wrote a'.famous CIirIstmas poem in which for the Itrst time the Amerknn Santa Claus was described, Iiis mode of traveling was pictured and the lavishness of his giving was made known. That poem was “The JfigIU Kefore Christmas," wliicli every American has recited or heard recited at some time or another. And for tiiat reason the news that “the birthplace of Santa Claus” was to be wiped out of existence had nation-wide interest. Quite aside from his fame as the author of “The Night Before Christ mas." Doctor Mnore was ii notable man. Ris.father. Bishop Benjamin Jlooi-e. flie second Protestant Kpiscopnl hislmp of New York and the third president .of Columbia university, as sisted at Hie Inauguration of Washing ton and administered the last rites to the' living. Alexander Hamilton after the fatal duel with Aaron Burr. Clenieiii c. Moore was graduated from Coltiniliia university in 171*8 and was a profestioi iif Hebrew and Greek in the Ceneral Theological seminary from 1K21 to t.sno. He was a prolific writer, one of Iiis literary productions bearing the imposing title of "Observations Upon Certain Passages In Mr. Jeffer son’s Notes on the State of Virginia Which Appear to Have a Tendency to Subvert Religion and Establish a False Philosophy.” However, his most important work, the one at least upon which he believed his fame as n scholar would be secure, was “A Com- pendius Lexicon of the Hebrew Lan guage.” its little realfzed that future generations of Americans would re member him better as the author of what he was accustomed to call “a silly poem,” the authorship of which he refused to acknowledge for a long time. Yet such was the case, for a short time before Christmas In 1S22, Doctor Moore wrote for his children a Christ mas poem and they were delighted with the roltoeking tale, ns other chil dren, not only in this country but in many other lands, have been ever since.' A daughter of Rev. Dr. David Butler, rector of Sl Paul’s church at Troy, N. I., who was a Aiece of Doctor Moore, was a Christmas guest in the Afoore home and made a copy of the poem In her album. The next year she sent a copy of it. to the Troy Sentinel and it appeared In that pa per, prefaced by a note from the ed itor siiying he did not know who had sent It. By the next year.it had ap peared In many other newspapers and magazines and within a few years it had found its way into the school- books." By this time Inquiries were beginning to be made as to its author ship' and eventually Doctor Moore, none too well pleased that his “silly poem” was so well-known whereas his scholarly "Compendius J-exicon’’ at tracted little attention, except from other scholars, admitted its authorship and gave the autographed - original manuscript of the poem to the New York Historical society. In its original form the poem dif fers slightly from tbe present version. oFA —K5K&T "JffdH FSgFO XZ C B R T StT fiiS"-ZtSTjtf * Mderftabi&tsl particularly Sn the names of the rein deer. “Viscen” of the original has be come "Vixen'’ and "Donder” has been changed to “Dunder.” The title which Doctor Moore gave to his verses was “A Visit From St. Nicholas,” but the modern version, taken from the first line. Is “The Night Before Christmas. Its popularity, however, has heen un changed throughout the 107 years, it has been translated into many foreign tongues and it lias deliglifed the chil dren of many nations. Doctor JIoore died In 1S63 at his summer home in Newport, R. I. His body was taken to New York, which was then in the throes of the draft riots, and was placed temporarily in a vault at St. Luke’s church in Hud son street. Later it was removed to the churchyard of the Chapel of the Intercession (Trinity parish) and there it rests today in a plot of ground which holds also the bodies of Iiis wife and their three children. In fact, this plot lias been more of a Christmas shrine than has the house near Chelsea Square, where the poenj was written and a very pretty phrist- was ceremony in memory of Doctor Moore takes place there every year. Rev. Dr. Milo H. Gates, vicar o,f..the chapel at Broadway and One Hunilred and Fifty-fifth street, has long been an admirer of the'poem and lts scholnrly author. In 1911 he held the first serv ice In Doctor Moore’s memory. About 200 children gathered with him at the grave at the foot of the hill overshad owed by the higli'wall which is topped by Riverside drive. Since then the number has grown to more than 2,000. The ceremony begins at four o’clock on Christmas eve with the feast of lights in the church. Then the chil dren- gather in the cloister while a fanfare of trumpets from the bell tow er heralds the procession to the ceme tery. Led by the trumpeters they move along One Hundred and Fifty- fifth street, carrying banners, Iiglitcfd candles, torches and lanterns, past the huge Christmas tree in the corner' of the churchyard. AU Broadway traffic is halted as they cross, the swell of their music rising above the noise of the street and falling away again as they pass. From the steps of the cemetery and the road that winds around from side to side down the hill, the voices may still be heard on the busy street sing ing “Little Town of Bethlehem.” “Silent Night, Holy Night,” “We Three Kings of Grient Are.” “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen," and* many other favorite Christmas hymns and carols Except for the Iigiits in the chil dren’s hands. It is quite dark by the time they reach the stone niark®J "Clement Clarke Moore, born in New York July 15, 1779; died in Newport. It. I., July 10, 1868.” ATfinaI carol is sung as a wreath is laid against the. stone and, before disbanding, the pro cession moves on to a"-grave nearby to honor the memory of Alfred Tenny son • Dickens,, eldest son of Charles) Dickens, author of'another Christmas classic, “A Christmas Carol.” Another ceremony honoring Doctor Moore is heid annually a't St. Peter’s Episcopal church on Twentieth street. A tablet is erected to Iiis memory there because he was the first warden of that church and also gave the land upon which it stands, as-well as the land upon which was built the Gen eral Theological seminary with which It has a close connection. the^uch o f. igsS P jjh Ni§£ it to those "wo iater' goo. o see in ip-rthe Fi on earthb stome K/two thousand * Te to timev I-,fend upon the Saniily circle). . ‘.I chair may Taave its occupant a vanished hand” may be fe pilgp THE REALVision of Cbi Ilfethe family circle the symt Jtonkind—and to catch in tLw,. — glimpse of the Larger BrotheffiSod.

This Christmas “stuff” was all "Hie bunk,” anyway—; time and' moiiey wasted, just to help the merchants sell their goods. Half of the things no one wanted either to give or receive. It didn’t mean a thing any more—if it ever did—he rather doubted if it ever did. So his mind was quite free on that subject as he stopped for his morn ing paper the day before Christmas. “Ain’t Christmas grand?” the news boy asked, his face wreathed with smiles. “Do you think so?” the man asked as he paid for his paper. ■ , “Sural” was the enthusiastic'reply. “Ain’t we goin’ ta have a tree at the church' tonight?” pointing across the street^ “with candy and nuts, and ev erything. And tomorrow a dinner? I’ll say it’s grand!” Then—“Oh, wait a minute, mister,” ‘ he called after the retreating man who quickly turned. “Look!” display- Dlaying a red glass sin for the man’s inspection. “Ain’t this a peach!” proudly. “It’s for my Mom.

Hours later on the train on his way home he was too happy’to think ol how tired he was. “It was just a case of another Mr. Scrooge,? he chuckled to himself. • (©. 1929, Western Newspaper Union.)

Portland, Ore.—At times the sea plays cruel tricks on her most knowl edgeable followers.

I can’t fight the hoodoo forever.” - / Cause of Disaster Mystery.. What Iie found out from the per sons who had seen Captain Itolierison head his craft over the bar served only to mystify him. After working the ship up from Harshfie'd, leaving there on a Wednes day, Captain llobertson came inlo view off the bar the next Sunday aft ernoon. Thousands of times he had run fishing boats in over the high swells. The-coast guard, as usual, watched him edge the vessel throufili the worst part of the passage. Suddenly he halted. The ItustIer made a half turn, as if Captain Rob ertson suddenly decided to heat back to sea. There was a lurch, a pitch.-: then the rusiiing waters tossed her into the surf in a twinkling. Over she went, six times in a row. nnd pound ed against the rocks each time. Captain Kobertson, vaguely visible in the wheelhouse, made'no move. He was not seen again until his body was drifted ashore. He was breath ing, but could not be kept alive. The fact that the Rustler was in the' best of condition and that her mo tors and gear had all been overhauled this summer put the blame on some-' thing other than the ship. And the fact that Captain Robertson had taken boats in and out of the harbor for a quarter of a century, and that he hr (I been on the sea most of his sixty- eight years, seemed to take the blame off him, and these things mystify Mc Cormick./ Mails Faithless Wife Wedding Ring Finger .

There was a chorus of admiration and congratulation when he came back. „ Everybody was guessing how he did it, and the majority opined that he had spent the summer at some ex pensive Iiealjh farm. But lie told me the real story. He went to a little farm, which a New York friend Ilad just bought In Pennsylvania. The gambler had been a farm boy in his youth. He looked over the rough, uncultivated place and said: “Bill, I’ll fix it up for you, for my board and- room.” The friend agreed, nnd the gambler went to work. He got up every morn-. ing at six and worked till sundown. He spaded up a huge tract for a gar den and planted everything imagi nable. from t'adishes to canteloupes, He dtis post holes and put up fences ant’ repaired huilrlinjrs. The gambler stayed nine weeks and never faltered in his-hard work, He grinned when he Iold me about it. “The !rouble is that when most peo ple so to the country Io build up.” he said, “they Jusi sit around and do nollrns. They might just as well stick in town. All they, need is good Imrd work, fiolf—hah! A spade beats a golf club any day for putting a man in real trim."*' * » .

That was what she wanted him to have. She had called him “Jacte” And ever since “Jack” bad been her confident, her pa), her fiance. . Here on Business. . . . Tolo Ben I'd Look You Up.” The long evenings passed more easily when she looked into the large brown eyes and dreamed of the time she and “Jack” might have a home of their own. But, tonight, another empty Christ mas eve, imaginative; .Marion with twinkling eyes,, became matter-of-fact Miss Morris of the office. “It’s ridic ulous!” she scolded. "Completely in love with a picture t I must be losing my mind!” Vindicatiyely she thrust “Jack” into a drawer and sat down to . make herself read and forget. Suddenly the door bell rang. Marion opened the door cautiously. Then she gasped. When David Bruce entered he won dered why the attractive sister of his pal stared at him as if she could not believe her eyes and sank weakly into a chair. “. . . Hereonbusiness Told Ben I’d -look you up,” he ex plained a little nervously. "Shouldn't have broken In on your Christmas—a perfect stranger—I—ah—was a- little lonesome, I guess . . .” Marion manged to' say softly, “I’m glad you came.” And David, looking at her felt that, somehow, she was. ' There’d been lots to talk about. David leaving -.late, anticipated; with actual eagerness the dinner with her tomorrow. And .Marion’s heart sang as she got up early on -Christmas to “get things dona” David came early, too. and Mariyn, pinning a towel around him, Jet Mtn help, it seenjed natural. Ske and he had been-friends in' her iK&feinsition so long! The aft ernoon passed swiftly. .In the evening they weiil to a theater. When they relumed, “A look al the tree, before you go?” invited Marion. David stepped in-rfor a look at Marion. He flushed nnd glanced down. “1—1 told Hen—if his sister was iis—attractive as the picture he showed me. T d -want to bring her back with me and—” He looked up seriously, "!'lease don’t think me cheeky. I've; got to return so soon and—well, she's better^ than the pic ture.

Homeless Men Glad to Find Stray Ducks’ Eggs Any morning before the rush traffic has begun, yon may. see the homeless ones who sleep on the' London em bankment walking slowly along, peer ing over the parapet at the steps and landings. They are looking for ducks’ eggs. I was walking past the-- air force war memorial. (writes a correspond ent) when I saw two ducks perched on one of the steps just above high- water mark. Between them lay a beautiful new-laid egg. I climbed over the low railing anil retrieved the egg. As I was clamber- ing back a seedy-looking embankment habitue accosted me. “You’ve pinched my breakfast, guv’nor,” he complained. I gave him the egg; and he explained that he had found a half dozen eggs on the same steps during a fortnight. —New York World. . Sailors in Small Boat Menaced by Albatross Haunted by. an albatross, a bird of ill omen, and in danger of having their boats smashed by a huge whale, were among the experiences of the crew of. the Siltonhall,.a British steamer that caught fire recently hundreds of miles from land in the South Indian ocean. Soon after the cargo of coal cauglit fire the decks became red hot and the hatches' were in flames. The crew took to two small boats and for 44 hours were adrift in a gale. It was during this time that the albatross constantly swooped down menacingly. This story bears a remarkable simi larity to the incident in Coleridge’s poem, “The Ancient Mariner,” in which the albatross, an ominous bird, haunts a stricken ship. Pulpit Jokes 53ie late Dr. .Tohn Roach Stratton, unbending at Greenwood lake, told a reporter a number of pulpit jokes. “Then there was Ti very nervous preacher,” Doctor Stratton said, “who gave out as his text one Sabbath, lHeaviness may endure for a joy, but night cometh in the morning.’ “Another preacher had to preach before a convention of medicos. He was a joker, that man, and no mis- take. His text was, *A certain wom an had suffered many things of many physicians, and had 'Spent all that she had, and was nothing better,, but rather grew worse.’ “A terrible Scotch preacher offi- ated at a notorious miser’s funeral. ThiS isn’t a joke, though. The Scotch man took for the text of his funeral sermon, ‘And the beggar died.’ ” M o t h e r s '. . .

Premature Burials Fought Fear of being buried alive has grown to such an extent in Europe that the •Society for the Prevention of Prema ture Death has been organized. It is arousing public interest in Britain in the building of a large mortuary, where bodies may be kept until there can be no doubt that death has taken place. It will be conducted along the lines of that in Munich, tlermany, where, attached to each body is a cord con nected with a system of bells, which ring at the slightest movement of the- body. Attendants are on duty day and night, and if a bell rings, they dash for a doctor. The new society has 11' tests of death. Suspicious Suspicions Husband—Who called this afternoon?

F o b * We all catch colds and they can make us miserable; but yours needn’t last long if you will do this: Take two or three tablets of Bayer Aspirin just as soon as possible after a cold starts. Stay in the house if you can—keep warm. Repeat with anotheriablet or two of Bayer Aspirin every three or four hours, if those symptQps ‘01 cold persist; Take a good laxative .when you retire, and keep bowels open. If throat- is sore, dissolve three tablets in a quarter-glassful of water ^ and gargle. This soothes inflammation and reduces infection. There-is nothing like Bayer Aspirin for a coldi or sore throat. And it relieves aches and pains almost instantly. The genuine tablets, marked Bayer, :• are absolutely harmless to the heart. .... : I I A Y B :B I A S P i n i n i Y . v-rri .; -S11 .V mm Sr5./. ,‘.v - ....5 RECORD,„N . C. .

Disaster relief work, service to dis abled veterans and their families, pub lic health work and its many other activities caused expenditures of $11,- 064,000 by the American Red Cross for the year ended June 30, 1929, ac cording to the annual report of the organization. This work by the Red CrosB Is sup ported by the annual Roll Call , for members, which is held from Armis tice Day to Thanksgiving Day, No vember 11 to 28. Directing attention to the heavy ex penditures by tbe Ked Cross during the past year, and to the fact that the organization was called upon (or assistance in 120 disasters in the United States and its insular posses sions, Judge John Barton Payne, tbe chairman, said: "The Red Cross is a volunteer so ciety, supported by its membership, and belongs to all of the citizens. While it is a semi-governmental agency In that tbe President of the United States is its president, and one- third of its governing board are rep resentatives of Government depart ments, yet it receives no financial sup port from the Government. "Funds for our work for war vet erans and their families, for carrying on disaster relief, for our varied health activities, the life saving and first aid work and our many other ac tivities, all are derived from tbe mem bership fee. The public is asked only once each year—at the Annual Roll Call—to join in this support of the Red Cross.” Tbe Red Cross expended an aver age of $936,000 per year In the past seven years, in disaster relief work, 'from its own treasury, statements show. The work for world war vet erans also has caused heavy expendi tures. LABOR HEAD URGES SUPPORT OF RED CROSS “Invariably it is the masses of the people which suffer most when disas ters occur,” stated William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, recently. "Because they suffer most and be: cause of their helplessness, the minis trations of the Red Cross organization take on added significance and impor tance. No doubt many lives among these particular groups are saved through the prompt service which this organization gives. “Because tbe American Federation of Labor appreciates this fact, we have supplemented the appeal of the Ameri can Red Cross at each Roll Call period for memberships from the great mass of working men and women and their families. “The continued service o the Amer ican Federation of Labor in this most humane and unselfish work will be most cheerfully rendered.” Mr. Green is a member of the Board of Incorporators of the American Red Cross. NURSES ENROLLED W ITH RED CROSS FOR SERVICE Enrolled with the Nursing Service of the American Red Cross at Wash ington are 49,000 nurses^ qualified under the society’s regulations, who may be summoned to service in time of disaster or other emergency From the Red Cross enrollment were assigned 20,000 nurses In the World War. These Red Cross nurses are the standing reserve of the Army and Navy Nurse Corps of the United States, and are also called upon-foi service in other governmental health services. L CHURCHMEN ASK SUPPORT OF RED CROSS ROLL CALL Leading churchmen of the na tion have joined in asking public support of the annual Roil Call 'of the American Red Cross. Two dis tinguished-leaders who have sent messages to their congregations all over the country sire quoted, as follows: “I plead for an extension of our Red Cross .membership until we can call a roll of every adult Amer ican," stated the Most Reverend Michael J. Curley, Archbishop of Baltimore. "I would like to see the children listed In the organiza tion by their parents. I plead for it because of the spiritual reaction I M la In oir HllDons ol» tributlng members.” VAs president of the Federal Cohncil of the Churches of Christ in America, I bespeak for the Roll Call of the American Red Cross the fullest cooperation of- all the churches in the constituency of the Council,” writes Francis J. Mc Connell, president of tbe Federal GounciL “I cannot imagine that there is any minister who will not be grateful for the opportunity to call the attention of his people to the work of the. Red Cross and to urge them to' enroll In its member ship." I S h o u ld B e D o n e W ith C a r e A n d T im e . A ls o w h e r e y o u c a n o b ta in th e g r e a te s t v a lu e s .

An unusually large number of dis asters in the United States and its in sular possessions have required assist ance from the American Red Cross during the year just closed. Tbe or ganization sent emergency relief workers to the scenes of 120 torna does, floods, fires and other types of catastrophes and expended $8,020,000 in relief and rehabilitation of the vic tims. Calls for aid came from eleven other nations in which earthquakes, floods and other problems caused dis tress^ to large populations, and the Red Cross sent $76,300 to help in re lieving the suffering. The catastrophe causing tbe great est loss of life and most widespread devastation was the West Indies hur ricane of September, 1928, in which more than 2,000 lives were lost in Florida, -Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands. A relief fund of $5,883,725.62 was contributed by the public, follow ing a proclamation by the President of the United States, to which the Red Cross added $50,000 from its own treasury, and the society was ena bled to give relief to more than 700,- 000 persons. In the early Spring, river floods Id the southeastern states cost a heavy joss to many persons, 76,000 inhab itants being affected In four states. The Red Gross assisted 4,383 families, approximately 28,000 persons, with food, clothing, temporary housing, feed for stock and seed for replant ing; In all, thirty-eight states vere vis ited by calamities during the year, affecting 364 counties. Twenty-eight counties were devastated twice Dy storms, fires, and Hoods. Red Cross expended $434,000 from its treasury- in giving relief In these disasters;- and at one time had as many as, 120 disaster relief workers, nurses and other representatives In the-field.. > " Funds tor this relief work are ob tained in the annual, roll call for mem bers, which " occurs from Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day, November U to 28. Only once a year—during this period of Roll Call—does the Red Cross ask public support to carry on its mahy activities.

To the Editor of The Observer: I have just recently returned from New York, where I complet ed a course of instruction in Eco nomics and Political Science, at one of the colleges there, and it is my desire to enlighten the people furth er as to the recent election in New York Citv, through the medium of your Open Forum. The negro has been given a pro minent place in the columns of the newspapers recently, and it is my desire to give the facts as to what party be really is a part of. My answer is that he is a member of both parties, Democratic and Re publican. On the night of November 4, I, in company with several members of my class, had an opportunity of Mayor Walker, the nominee for mayor on the ,Democratic ticket, address the negroes of Harlem under the United Colored Demo cratic Clubs, at St. Luke’s Hall1- 125 West 130 Street, New York City, and what he had to say would shock the Democrats of the South. On the stand with him was Fer dinand Q. Morton, negro Civil Ser vice Commissioner, an appointee of Gov. Al Smith; William H. Aus tin, negro Democratic candidate for the New York Assembly, and sever al other negroes. St. Luke’s Hall was overflowing with'negroes. Here is the official statement giv en out by Tammany, with the con sent and approval of the Democra tic IeadbfS;1' and; ■published'' in" the NewYork newspapers: ‘‘Mayor1 Walker’s visit to the negro district was hot only for the purpose of holding the negro voters in line for nimself, but was in response to the negro Democratic clubs of Harlem to help their negro Democratic can didates for local and State offices, rather than the city ticket.” Harlem is a negro district in the heart ot New York City, and the result was' that it not only (went overwhelmingly foy Mayor Walker and other Democratic candidates, but it sent William H. Austin, ne gro democratic, to the New York State Assembly, and elected sever al negro Democrats .to loca.1 posi tions. Mayor Walker appealed to them to elect negroes who were straightout Democrats, and he cer tainly received his wishes. The negroes of New York City have been voting the Democratic ticket for years past, and this^ in sures Tammany’s re election at every election. There are over 210,000 negroes in Harlem, and it Major La Guardia had ,received these negro votes, he would have been elected mayor on tne Republi-, can ticket. I should add further that I have seen the white secretary to the ne gro Civil Service Commissioner, Ferdinard Q. Morton, and it is cer tainly true that she is his secietary. A trip" to New York will set one’s mind at rest as to the truth of it. I am not surprised that Smith lost the election. Go up there and see Iiow Tamniany treats the negro and you will be convinced that North Carolina will cast- its elector al vote against Smith" should he be the nominee of the Democrats a- gain. and he most certainly will be. Bothparties use . the negro for political purposes, but Tammany goes the limit with them. Mv object in writing this letter is to give your readers the faets-as one from this community has seen them. (Miss) Doris Lee AJexander, Charlotte, N. C. The above appeared in Sunday’s issue-of the Charlotte Observerand we are printing it so that the little wo-by four newspaper editors and- correspoudents who haye been hav ing so much to say about the ban sandwich and cup of coffee tbai Mrs. Hoover sometime ago handed out to the wife of Oscar DePriest. the-Illinois negro Congressman car have something else to entertain, tlfeir minds, if they have any.

What Is a Horpet More or Less. “Aunt’ Jennie Anhurst so the papers say, brought an unusual eu tertainment to people^of Kinston a few days ago. Having been a crip ple for the past three years and uu-, able to walk without- crutches, she was more than respectful to the inmates of a huge hornets’ nest near her bedroom window through all the past summer. However-, with the chill days of the past wees she surmised that the hot-headed" members of the wasp family had all turned in for the winter, so she podded their nest down with a stick. The result was a classic, Hanip ered with the crutches, the aged woman could not run. So she (,brew, the crutches 'away aiid ran without ,them, although she" had ,not walked a step without heT wooden support in the past three years, so the papers say. Her speed was declared entirely satis factory; the results of her dash were fairly effective—only about a dozen of the sting ougs made their conn ection. Now, so the papers say, she is walking without her crutches. A nice point of psychology is re leased, here. It is olcT— one of the oldest in the history of sociological matters. People can do many things they don’t realize they are able to do. Only a spark, satne- times, is necessary to cause a revo lutionary action. Just a tiny in centive and a little confidence, add ed to latent powers neyer exercised; turn the trick. Therefore, whether it be hornets or a kick in the slats, may the motivating fore-come often and al ways in the right place.—Winston Journal. TheStock Market De bacle. The aftermath of the stock mark et debacle is bringing a series of stories, telling about bank closings, suicides, fortunes wiped out and other evidences that it rarely pays to try to make money too fast, es pecially when you are fooling with forces that you do not understand. The fact that the buying of stocks for a long time past, has been on a speculative basis, with the purchas ing public expecting to turn lose on another buyer soon at a big pro fit, rather than upon an investment basis, where the purchaser buys with an eye on the dividend, rates of the companies. J The stock market losses are bad, because in too many many instances they are to be borne by innocent investors,1 who bad no business in the game. However, fundamental ly there is nothing "to justify the eUormous depreciation of stock values. If, like the speculation that went before, nas already been carried too far. The trouble with always having an open- mind-is that the wind is liable to fill it with rubbish.. - A TimeIyHint. < In, this day . of fake stocks of every description it probably lias not occurred to a lot of people a round Mocksville that we have a oretty safe bureau of information iu the banks of the community. It is part of a banker’s business to keep posted on such things. As a rule;-,he knows what is safe and Wbaf isn’t what is dependable, and what" is doubtful. A n d itisto his credit that he tries to protect his neighborhood trom such invest ments as are apt to prove valueless He asks no compensation tor his advice; neither does be feel offend ed if you fail to take it. But more than one man has been spared the loss of good hard money by steer ing cleat of stocks his banker friend was-doubtful about. Even though a good many have lost money in re cent weeks on the investment mark et, buying stock will continue. So if you are “in the market” for something that will net you a pro fit on your money, take a moment oefore investing to talk it over with a banker friend. You may be mighty glad a little later on that you did so. United States Senate NoW Has Candymaker. Quite a number of professions and industries are represented among- the personnel of the Senate—not all are lawyers, really—but as far as the records have been searched only one candv maker has appeared. H fes lhe new Senator from Tepn - essee, AVilliam E Brock. Senator Brock, who adds to the length of millionaires’ row in the upper body, savs the Pathfinder, has had a very colorful career. Like a number of prominent Sena tors he was born ou a farm—his farm being in Davie county, N. C. At 12 be had to quit school and make a regular hand on the farm becouse of the illness and subse quent death of his father. He was 23 when be went to Winston-Salem and got a job as store clerk at $30 a, month. Three years later his in telligent industry attracted the Reynolds family of tobacco fame and he was made a salesman. Hp made a good one and was soon in charge ol a sales force ih Georgia of fifty men. But after twelve years of that be got tired of the road and of tobacco, too Reynolds told him he was a fool to quit —that if he would stick, to it he would become a millionaire. But Brock knew when he had enough. He was living in Chatta- jiooga then, and he and. his wife planned-a long trip West for rest and recreation. Everything was ready when someone called his at tention to a candy business for sale. It appealed to him, so he told his wife the trip was off—and the candv business was on. He made a go of it—accepting his second chance to become a millionaire.—Philadelphia Inquirer. Marketing One Part Of Farm Problem. Those who think that the Federal Fhrm Board can in itself bring pros perity to the farm must keep in mind that marketing is only one part of the present farm ; rohlem. ‘Tor many farmers, marketing is only an insignificant part of th’eir problem,” says K. H Rogers, assist ant agricultural economist at Siate College. ‘‘Economical production will continue to be the watchword if of Successful farmers and a goal for those -who are trying to better their present business and home cordi- ltions. Becauseeaclf farm presents 1 a specific problem, there can be no 18 t formula which will guarantee a I larger net return. However, the I generalization can be made that high !yields and acre and low operating cSarges combine in making for low er production costs ” Mr. Rogers says that high yields an acre, insofar as, the human ele ment is concerned, are obtainable b\ proper seed-bed preparation, fertili-' zation, seed selection, timeliness in harvesting, adequate cultivation, treament against insect and disease pests, systematic crop rotations, and rec gnized practices of good mana gement. With livestock, high yields are secured mainly by using good breeding stock feeding' well balanceo rations and sanitarv practices.. To keeo operating expenses low, too, the farm must be organized ti use available labor throughout the year. This usually means that more than one crop will serve , as an im. portant source of income. The use of adequate machinery, well drained and properly terraced fields of good size, are examples of other* items suggested by Mr. Rogers, as influ encing operating costs. High quality and the kind of pro duet most in demand on the market are also important factor that good, farm management can influence', he declares. ’ Too Slow What Mocksville man ever ex pected to see the time when a pair of high heeled shoes and cotton stockings would be classed as an tiques.

(Greensboro News-Argus) The wheel of justice- are notable for the slowness with which they grind. So it" will probably be many months before the ;State Supreme Court hears appeals on the various labor cases, of which the conviction of Alfred Hoffman add three others for rioting at Marion was the latest appealed In the Marion case occurred what we had called attention to 111 a previous labor verdict, an appar ent compromise virdict by a jury which would not find guilty oh more serious charge and ^whose members were willing to compro mise to give some sort of gnilty ver dict. Such a practice is unfortunately beyond the power of the Supreme Court to correct. But the hearing on. the labor case appeals as quick as possible would, we.believe, quickly correct certain mistaken ideas in the heads ot some of the labor organizers. And such correction would prevent occurrence of scenes to the ones for which convictions have been obtain ed. “ Peaceful picketing” is a phrase much in the moutha of the labor leaders. Chief Justice Taft once said that there is no such thing, that the words are contradictory be-tcause picketing is not by its nature peaceful. The quicker the appeals on the Gastonia and ■ Marion cases are heard, the quicker we believe labor leaders:will learn that. they, cannot incite riots in North ".Caro- Jina and^attempt to wear the sbeep’s . clothing of “ PeaeefnL pickets'.” - - SomeYjf our western statesmen are so anxious for a tariff to protect the farmers that they are willing to kill the protective tariff altogether if anybody but the farmer is men tioned in it. It is said that Mr. Ford is con templating the buildiDg of an auto mobile factory in Montenegro, and that ought to be a good place to find out wheatbe or not they will, pull a hill on high.

Edmonton, A lta.—Forest rangers, searching the Tonquin valley o f the Canadian Bocktes, found the marked body o f a man lying in the snow near an isolated cabin. The cause of his death is undeter mined. He may, they th in k, have fa ll en victim to the huge prowler, who is s till king o f the mountains, the wan dering grizzly, fo r the map whom they found dead had started a feud w ith one o f the grizzly trib e and, only a short tim e ago, had returned to his lone cabin w ith the avowed intention o f k illin g one-particular marauder be fore he le ft the valley. The dead man was P. H. Goodair, ex-officer o f a crack English regiment, member o f a well-known B ritish fam ily and, more recently, a warden in Jasper N ational park. A t the end o f the war he' Had come to the mountains seeking to regain his shattered health and took a position as game warden to occupy his tim e. Late last summer he was visitin g In Edmonton. He told the story o f his feud w ith a grizzly. The bear had broken into his cabin, destroying grub and supplies, but also breaking up a number o f w ar souvenirs which could not be replaced. Goodair was on the, w arpath. G rizzlies do not wander much, usually haunting some fa vo rite locality, and Goodair was confident th a t he would meet his enemy again. In addition,-this pa rticu la r bear had a peculiar m alform ation o f one fro n t foot--so th a t the warden would have no d ifficu lty in id e n tifying hjs tracks. W hat has happened since no one knows or ever w ill. Bangers found the body marked as if from a grizzly’s attacks. B ut recent snow fall had erased a ll tracks or footprints. Good a ir may have met his enemy, fired and missed or he may have wounded the anim al only slig h tly and enraged it.

The Greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven (M att 18:1-61. Jesua answered concretely the dis ciples’ question as to who is greatest In the kingdom o f heaven, by plac ing a child In th e ir m idst and declar in g : L The condition o f entrance Into the kingdom (v. 3). In order to enter the kingdom one must become childlike. He thus showed to these am bitious disciples th a t a change o f heart was necessary in order to even enter the kingdom, le t alone having an honorable posi tion therein. B irtb from above is es sential, even to see the kingdom (John 3:3, 5). 2. Those who possess child like hu m ility are the greatest (v. 4). The child is dependent, low ly and modest Such characteristics are only possible to those who have been regenerated. II. Little Children Brought to Jesus-— (Mk. 10:13-16). 1. The mothers' desire th a t Jesus m ight touch th e ir children (v. 13). Doubtless they bad witnessed the healing power o f H is touch and cov eted It fo r th e ir children. AU Chris tian parents want th e ir children to come into contact w ith Jesus C h rist 2. The disciples’ rebuke (v. 13). They thought the children were too insignificant to be allowed to interfere w ith Jesus' work, therefore they re buked the mothers fo r bringing them to Him . 3. Jesus’ reply (v.14). He declared that the kingdom be longs to the children, therefore the ^children have a rig h t in the presence o f the king. 4. Jesus blesses the lit tle children (v. 1C). He took them up In Uis arms and blessed them. C hristianity is peculiar ly favorable toward children. Only where C hrist is known Is the child duly recognized. - III. The Child Jesus (Luke 2:1-20). L H is b irth (vv. 1-7). I t took place at Bethlehem accord ing to prediction (M lcab 5 :2 ). The Lord moved upon the emperor to en force the decree o f taxation ju st in tim e to bring Mary to Bethlehem. H is surroundings were o f the most humble sort. The eternal God con descended to , be thus incorporated w ith hum anity, to be born in a man ger, becoming the poorest o f the poor th a t none m ight be hindered in coming unto him. 2. Jesus’ b irth announced (w . 8-14). ( I) By whom. An angel o f the Lord was the first to give the gospel (2). To whom. H is b irth was an nounced to the shepherds who were -keeping watch over th e ir flocks by night. (3 ); The nature o f the message. It was good (idings o f great joy. It was good tidings because the darkness of heathendom which had so long cov ered the earth was beginning to' van- tsh ; the casting out o f Satan, the prince o f the w orld, was about to take place. Liberty was soon to be pro claimed to those who were In bond age. The way o f salvation was to be open to a ll. So glorious was this mes sage that a m ultitude o f the heavenly host accompanied it w ith th e ir song o f praise. 3. The shepherds Investigating (w . 15, 16). -They did not stop to argue o r’ raise questions, though these things were no doubt passing strange to them. They went im mediately to Bethlehem where they made investigation and found everything ju s t as represented. They had. the privilege Of first- gazing upon the w orld’s Savior, tbe Lord o f glory. 4. The shepherds witnessing- (vv. 17-20). They found things as announced.. When they beheld the Lord o f glory they could not rem ain silent, therefore they went back praising God and mak ing known w bat th e ir eyes had beheld. Those who really bear the gospel can-, not be silent—they must te ll it out to others. : Earth a Rebuke to Atheism God never wrought m iracles to con vince atheism, because H is ordinary works convince IL it is true, th a t a" little philosophy inelinetb man’s mind to atheism ; but depth'.in philosophy brtngetb men’s minds about to re ligion.—Francis Bacon.

An Important Highway The State Highway Commission last week completed another road that promises to be of material bene fit to Winston-Salem as well as other citiesand towns in this sec tion, the highway in question being the- 20 mile stretch between Mocks ville; and Sulisbitfy.' A new bridge has been put in over the Little Yad kin river on this highway and as a result Salisbury and Winston Sal em are given another connection PeVhaps the best feature of the new highway, however, is that traf fic on No. 10, North Carolina’s Main Street, so-called, will be re lieved to some extent and betterV time can be made. The road from Mocksville to Salisbury is one of the oldest roads in the State. For years Davie coun= ty depended almost entirely on the old dirt road between the capitals of the two counties as its chief means of transportation. That was before the building of railways some 35 years ago. Mocksville and Salisbury, both being old towns, had a considerable inter town trade. Produce from Davie moved over the old road to Salisbury, and Salis bury in , turn supplied a large part of Davie with merchandise. Both the old towns were quite aristocra tic, old and well-known families which had had a large part in the early history of the State resided in those two towns and a strong bond of friendship developed. When Winston-Salem built the first iail- way into Davie; this city began to draw heavily_ upon Davie in both, men and resburces, and njiny of the men who had a big part in de veloping Winston.-Salem came to Winston-Salem from that section. But there has been a strong tie between Salisbury and Davie, and1 this tie is to be strengthened how that a hard-surfaced highway con nects the two principal towns. The new highway will prove of mticb benefit to a fine section of country and all parties concerned feel that the State Commission had done well in making this old historic dirt road one of the best hard-surfaced high ways in the State system.—Win ston Journal. RED CROSS VOLUNTEERS PR IN T BOOKS FOR BLIND One of the most appealing services that te carried-forw ard by women vot- unteers under the Am erican Red Cross is th a t .of transcribing popular and scientific books into B ra ille fo r read ing by the blind. This w ork was started at Evergreen hospital, where blind veterans o£ the W orld W ar were sent a fte r the A rm istice. The Ked Cross now has 1,155 volun; teer B ra ille transcribers^ and last year they produced 442 title s in 1,843 vol umes, or 175,000 pages' of B raille. The m ajority o f the boats go ” to the Library of Congress and public li braries throughout the . country, al though some of the books' go to schools fo r the Blind and, In a ,few instances, text booKu are transcribed for- some individual scholar in order to help him complete his course in some Btudy.- ' The w ork is supported from the Red Cross R oll Call fo r members which occurs each year from Arm istice Day to Thanksgiving Day: Ob, What A Surprise!

Withour a glance at it the .hurried to the vil- lage;drug store* and to her-astonish- ment was advised to hays,- this parT ticulaJ prescription fiilled at the la dies’ outfitting stores.

This is truefor- more than one reason. In the first place the farmers a'rt dependent in a large degree on people of the industrial states for a market, because it is ini these, states that we have our big cities, and our largest population. Near-, Iy ninety per cent of our farm pro ducts areconsumed in th e .Umtea States and of these the people of: our cities and towns in the indust-,: rial section take a major share; Wherefore when American indus-, tries are going full blast and our! workmen are employed at good: wages the demand for tne products' of our farms is at the highest. When industries are com celled to shut down or Io reduce wages or curtail activities because of cheap foteign co'mpetion, the men- em ployed in these industries cannot buy so much of the farmer’s pro duce. This fact is so obvious that even a free trader ought to be able to see it. It is also a fact that some of our industries are now suffering from the unfair . European conjpetion' which comes about through cheap- ep^.al^es-andviQw.er, Jking--JCoudU ‘tioris abroad. There has been "a noticeable let up in some of these industries ana if-this goes far en ough it is bound to be felt more and more by the farmer. The argu ment that the protectionists are seeking to raise the cost of living of the farmer by increasing duties is fallacious for various reasons. In the first place, all commodities used exclusively on the farm are now on the free list. Again it has never been proved and connot be proved that lower tariffs means permanent ly lower prices. Most of the ad vantage when the tariff is lowered usually goes into the pockets of the importers who are noc in business because they love the farmers and other small consumers but who get all they can out of any lowering of the tariff. But at auy. rate with lower tariffs the farmer would lose far more in the curtailment of the American market .,than he could possibly gain by any reduction in the cost of living which would come down to him by a reduction iu the tariff on manufactured articles. But this is only part of tne story. In holding up the tariff because the manufacting industries might get some benefit from it,, the low tariff advocates are at tie same time holding up protective rates which are badly needed by the ,farmer himself. We are now importing many farm products from the Ori ent, from Latin-America and Aus tralia. Increased duties on farm products would remedy this situa tion and add millions more in mon ey in the pockets of the American farmers. But this additional farm protection which is so badly needed cannot be afforded the farmets un til the,whole tariff question is set tled. ■ Therefore those “friends of Ule farmer1'’ who are holding up the tariff and’ telling him they are do :ing it.prevent his .‘,.'cost of-living’ from going upT are not really, his friends. after- all. Apd h e . will dioubtless !realize: thiis . when he thoroughly grasps the situation.— Ex. Prayer For Editors. lTwin City Sentinel . . A member'of The Sentinel staff thinks, that an invocation, delivered fry Rev. T. D. Bateman,.of Colurii bus, Miss;; at the annual conven tion in this department The full text of the,prayer is therefore here with appended: “ Eternal God, our Heavenly Father, we ask thy blessi'ngs upon these newspaper people who are wont, to - communicate with the ends of the earth. They are peo the. who can smeiil i a revolution in !China people who have a license to ;%nter'the gates of princess and po Jentates1 but who will have a migh fy hard time getting inside the gates of Paradise. "Have mercy on these people who are tempted by every devil, from the printer's devil, , fnyn the devils of the newspaper headlines, and these same who are, so busy listening to the sounds of the; wires -and the songs of women that oft times the voice of God finds no listener among them arid no place in their hearts. i “ Have mercy, O Lord, upon peo pie who are chased by the Colonial Dames, W.

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judsea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem Saying, where is he that is boin King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. When Herod the king had.heard' these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him And when he bad gathered all the chief priests' and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born. And they said to him. In Bethle hem of Judaea; for this is written by the prophet. And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Jude, art not the least among the princes of Juda; for out of thee shall come a governor, tnat shall rule the people of Isreal. Then Herod, when he had privi ly called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem and said. Go and search diligent ly for the young child, and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may conic and wor- snip him also. When they saw the star, they ret joiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were coine into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and worshipped him; and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold and frankiucense, and myrrh. And being warned of God in a dream they should not return- to Herod1 they departed into their own country another way.

A s w ift glance showed Stnucker th a t his employer was looking at the photographs o f the j splendid estate be was about to buy. Mr. Smucker passed to the outer j office w ith slow step.

Women liked him . .Perhaps this singular creature had a daughter who bad trusted too w ell. “ Something about his past?” M r. Smucker suggested. “ Something about my p a st” flamed the caller. Mr. Smucker turned, on his heel and re-entered the private office. “ I t isn’t the dogs,” said be. “ W hat she wants is a private conversation about the past I may be wrong, M r.

I t was a tall, gaunt old worn an who faced him. He judged th a t some day, now long distant she bad been beautiful. He could see th a t she was rich ly dressed, and that the jew els she wore were costly. There was a look o f tragedy In her sm oldering dark eyes. ‘Tm afraid you were kept w aiting,” Hunhy began pleasantly.. “ I have been kept w aiting fo r th ir ty years.” she said. “ At least you cannot blame me fo r that.” He observed th a t her- eyes were fixed on the-photographs o f the house he had made arrangem ents to buy. “ I don’t th in k you sent in your card.” My name is Selenos,” she said. “ Selma?” Hanby asked. “ Selenos, Selenos,” she repeated. “Ir you were a C alifornian, It would T k e M y is t e r y o f a H a n n te d L M a n s io n . ~ tB y r — W y n d h a m M a r t y n W .

Apparently the strange woman was placing under a comprehensive curse Hanby and a ll th a t was his. Smucker gathered that his employer was one o f a band o f hardened men whose entire energies were expended In keeping Miss Sele nos from the Gray house. “ You go there a t your p e ril!” she shouted. “ I accept the risk,” said Hanby, quite unruffled. “ M y vengeance w ill follow you,” she added. “ D e lig h tfu l!” Hanby told her. “ I shall escape the monotony th a t my friends- prophesy.” ' Smucker, who was always nervous In the presence o f unusual violence, alm ost admired Hanby fo r his calm . “ This way, madam,” said Smucker. He led her to the elevator.

Mrs. Smucker would certainly enjoy this. So would his old father, and the men he talked to on the fe rry. As a * rule they talked about taxing the rich. Taxing the rich Was a passion w ith Smucker, and lie pursued his hobby viciously. B ut Smucker did not catch, his usual boat. I t was late when he re turned to his home. By that tim e the strange visito r and her pets had been driven from his mind by other things. Outside the office a big man, red-faced and jocund, slapped him on the back. “ Say,” the stranger said, “ ain’t you M r. Hanby’s confidential clerk?” Smucker looked about him. No member o f the office staff was visible. “ Yes,” he said w ith confidence. “ I am, but you have the advantage of me.” I “ I want you to fix it so I can get a word in private w ith the boss. I want to see him rig ht away.” ■ “ He goes home a t h a lf past fqur. I stay t ill six.” “ I guess you have to, being his con fidential man.” The stranger was evi dently pondering over something o f importance. “ Do you happen to know if he’s considering purchasing a big estate up in Dutchess county?” “ He completed the purchase this afternoon,” said Smucker. The news brought dismay to the red face o f the stranger. Alm ost It seemed as if he suffered. “ My G— d I” he cried. “ And him w ith a fa m ily !” “ W hy shouldn’t he buy it? ” Smuck e r asked. “ He’s got the money, as I happen to know.” “ I can’t te ll you here,” the other replied; “ but I ’d !ike you to give him a message from me before it ’s too late. Had your dinner?” “ Not y e t” ” “ How about a bite to eat now?” Smucker considered the m atter w ith the deliberation th a t a confiden tia l clerk m ight be expected to show. He was a heavy eater when another man footed the b ill, but be was also prudent. He did not feel drawn to th is big, coarse stranger. Further more, he wished to be sure that this was a genuine in vita tio n. I t would be o f no advantage to pay fo r a meal w hile in fa ir Weeiiawken a pot roast simmered fo r him. Perhaps the stranger sensed the economic struggle. “ This is on me,” he explained. “ Why?” Smucker demanded. “ Because I guess you have your boss’ 'in tere sts at heart, and I want you to te ll him something. I'm p u ll ing out fo r Chicago tonight, o r I’fl te ll him m yself. I t ’s a warning.” “ Some reference to a disgraceful past?” Smucker demanded eagerly. “ Some reference to a b—I o f a fu ture.

L i m i t t o T r a i n S p e e d U n d e r B e s t C o n d it io n s When railw ay beds have been made as nearly perfect as possible; when the lines have been straightened and as fa r as practicable leveled; and when the best types o f locomotives and cars have been devised, how fast w ill steam be able to carry, us? An answer to th is question, based on a scientific exam ination o f the conditions involved, is furnished by an authority on facts relating to, ra il roads. Cue hundred m iles an hour is about the lim it o f speed suggested. Another very im portant question growing out o f the firs t is ; W ithin w hat distance can a tra in running 100 m iles an hour, or but little less than 150 feet a second, be stopped? The reply' is th a t under the most favor able conditions a distance o f nearly h a lf' a m ile would be required. A tra in running a m ile a m inute can be stopped, it. is estimated, w ith in a dis tance o f, 900 fe e t By adding only tw o-thirds to the speed, therefore, the distance required fo r bringing the tra in to a standstill would be in creased almost three times. I t is evident that, when 'w e are ■w hirled across the country a t the rate o f 100 miles an hour “ a clear track” w ill become a fa r more im portant ne cessity even than It is today.

(2) It was a representative assem bly tv. 2). it was made up o f men, women and children. God’s Word should be taught to a ll classes, men, women anti children. (3) An appreciative assembly (v. 3). So eager were they to know God’s Word that they did not get tired, a l though the lesson lasted five or six hours. T heir ears were attentive from morning u n til midday. 2. The a ttitu de o f the people toward God’s Word (vv. 4-6). (1) They reverenced it (w . 4, 5). When. Ezra opened the law a ll the people stood up out o f respect fo r God’s Word. (2) They joined heartily In the prayer (v. 6). As Ezra led them In prayer, they united In saying. Amen, Amen, bowing th e ir faces to the ground. 3. God’s Word being interpreted (vv., 7, 8). ( I) Ezra stood up where the people could see him (v. 5). ■ (2) He read d istin ctly (v. 8). The manner In which many read the Scrip tures greatly discredits them. (3) He caused the people to under stand the reading (v. 8). The supreme business o f the m inister is to make the. Word o f God plain to a ll, old. and young. 4. Effect o f the application o f God’s W ord , upon the life o f the people (w . 9-12). (1) Conviction o f sin (v. 9). The divine method o f convicting men o f sin is the application o f God’s W ord in the energy o f the Holy Ghost (2) Weeping turned Into Joy (vv. 10-12).

Five years ago tonight, H arlan Moore had celebrated New Year’s eve in th is same c ity w ith some school: friends. A b itte r quarrel w ith his father had fo l lowed his a rriva l home, across the rive r, out in the country, early the next m orning. La t er th a t day angry, h u rt and; somewhat ashamed be had le ft home unno ticed, fu lly deter mined never to re turn. The years since had been bard, and now almost penni less, w ithout work and discouraged, a desperate plan, a way out o f w orry and w ant fo r a while, had suggested its e lf. I t was dangerous—but then no one cared what happened to bim— and the value o f those jewels would keep him fo r a long tim e. He stepped out and fe lt tbe now so ftly fa llin g snow, which fille d th e , unusually warm a ir, on bis face. B ut an officer approaching drove him back. H is heart beating hard and yet cold, he wondered if he .had the courage to see the plan through. H is hand tightened on tbe object in his pocket- as new guests arrived. He would wait, u n til m idnight though. Ju st before the usual din proclaim ed the New Year’s b irth , the orchestra in ' the cabaret swung in to the strains of. “ Goin’ Home.” Scenes long forgotten! flooded Harlan Moore's memory. Again he saw the old home, and again, tbe pained look in his father’s eyes— pained to th in k th a t his son could: come home In such condition. As memories crowded fa st on each other he wiped a m ist from his eyes. He jerked him self up quickly—he couldn’t be a baby—besides he hadn’t done anything wicked— hadn’t — something whispered, but -he bad planned to. As the dread o f facing the years ahead gripped him, the tem ptation came to see his. plan through and take the conse quences. Added to the; other memories the Io aging expressed In his mother’s la st le tte r served to sharpen bis wish fo r home, and be fore he realized it he was rushing down the street. In one pocket was enough money fo r the fe rry trip and across the riv e r he could w aik home. The object In his other pocket - he would throw in to the riv e r and have th a t o ff his mind. “ This is a real -New Year,” he hap p ily exclaimed. Just then he bumped info some one—“ W here do you th in k you are going!” the person growled, and be looked in to the eyes o f a police officer, but there was no fear In his voice o r eyes, ju s t peace and jo y as he answered, “ Why goin’ home!” and laughed w ith sheer delight a t the advice—“ W eil go then.”((Si 1929.

The Railroad to Be Given Away B v JE A N NEW TO N SOMETIME ago, if the news dis patches are to be taken seriously, officials o f a western railroad offered to give a well-equipped slig h tly used and “ unprofitable” hundred and fifty - eight-m ile branch railroad to anyone who would operate i t They were swamped w ith applica tions. Housewives, stenographers, car penters, preachers, actresses, boys, business men and hoboes wanted tbe ra ilrra d which they could get fo r nothing. . An inventor wanted the railroad to test out his mechanical discoveries— a m inister from Pennsylvania, a wom an from Council Bluffs, Iowa, who wanted to give her relatives jobs on the trains, a Chicago mother who de sired it fo r her seven-year-old son who was ju s t out to be a railroad president! And a stenographer who gave as her qualifications th a t she was “young and not bad looking I” Everybody, it seemed, in a ll walks o f life , w ith a ll sorts o f backgrounds, a ll sorts o f hopes, desires and a b ili ties, w ith varied reasons fo r wanting it, everybody wanted the railroad, and anybody would take it fo r nothing. W hat none o f these people thought of, apparently, was what they would do w ith it when they got it, how they would-m ake good w ith the g ift, how make it p ay! A ll they thought o f was getting something, taking. W hat they lost sight o f was the fa ct th a t every thing th a t we acquire brings w ith it problems, duties,, responsibilities. And so many people as they go through life are always w illin g to take, to acquire, w ithout a thought fo r the accompanying responsibility th a t they are "taking on.” T hat, it seems to me, is the cause fo r much o f the d isil lusionment th a t people suffer. They accept eagerly possessions, position, ties, and when they are brought face to face w ith the price, the obligations to which they have u n w ittin g ly com m itted themselves, they are aston ished a t the “ strings” tied to th e ir bargain. Per my part, I make no application fo r the railroad th a t is to be given away free. (© by tbs Bell Syndicate. Inc.)

A t any aviation camp they w ill teU you that if one man has an accident it Is like ly to be followed by a bunch o f accidents. I t seems to effect tbe nerves o f the whole camp. The men expect trouble and sure enough it is forthcom ing. Trouble never disap points one who is looking fo r it. No doubt tbe Iosd1 o f confidence and the general attitude o f expectancy helps to bring about the disastrous re s u lt AU this is based on the funda m ental psychological law that an idea, a strong fear or expectancy m aterial ly effects the muscles and nerves despite every conscious effort you m ight make to the contrary. Trouble comes in bunches because we sometimes m agnify the little things in to troubles to get the th rill o f self p ity . The negro sp iritu a list song ex presses it in the phrase “ Nobody !knows de troubles I ’ve seen.” There is a tendency to m agnify our ill luck In order to excuse fa ilu re and incom petency and to get the compensation o f self p ity. Troubles come in bunches because a fte r a severe jo lt one is less able to carry on as norm al. He fa lls below par m entally, physically and emotion a lly. No one knows th is any better than a professional boxer. A fte r stop ping a hard punch w ith his chin he gets wabbly and trouble piles up fast not through any m ysterious bunching o f trouble, but because he is Weakened by the hard blow and is less able to carry on. The chief reason why trouble seems to come in bunches is th a t the firs t blow weakens the man so th a t he fa lls an easy prey to whatever may come his way. ((c) by UcClure Newspaper Syndicate.) .

I was fascinated by the medley o f noises th a t were strange to me, the sucking sound as the bow slapped into a fu rro w o f the waves, and the creaking o f the blocks and braces. “ One o f my new friends taught me to te ll tim e by the ship’s bell. W hile we were listening, it struck eight times. This meant it was four o’clock. H alf- past was one bell, and he told me that when fo u r bells came I could have my supper.- B ut long before th a t tim e I was down in the galley, watching the cook prepare the food. I ate w ith the sailors, and relished th e ir fare o f corned beef and hard tack. They made much o f me, joking and pretend ing to consider me one o f them. Though I was shy among so many strangers, I enjoyed th e ir rough kind ly ta lk and could have listened to it forever. “ B u t soon a fte r supper I realized th a t I was very tired. One o f the men offered me his bunk. He could sleep ju s t as w ell on the floor, he said. And in spite o f the narrowness and hardness o f my bed and the lurching o f the boat, I soon fe ll fa st asleep. “ When I awoke the next m orning we were in quiet water. I could hear the captain on deck shouting orders to his men. I ran out in to the cool m orning lig h t and found th a t we were about to come to dock, although most o f our canvas was s till spread.. On the p ie r a sm all crowd o f people was gathered to meet us. Just as it seemed th a t we were about, to crash in to the pier, the boat made a sharp tu rn and we came up broadside. The hawsers were flung, and caught by the men on shore, who made them fa st to the piles. We were in Boston. “ I was eager to land, but it seemed I must w a it u n til the business o f un loading was done. A ll hands must w ork to get the perishable fish to mar ket as quickly as possible. The bar rels were rolled over the dock side and hoisted up by derricks to the w harf, where they were loaded onto carts. “ When E ric was cleaned up and ready to go on shore I clim bed the ladder to the dock. There -a great many people were , ta lkin g and shout in g to each other. Draymen were backing th e ir carts up to take on bar rels o f fish. The owners o f the ship were bargaining w ith tradesmen. Fish ermens’ fam ilies were down to meet th e ir relatives. I was bewildered, and clung closely to E ric as he led me along the cluttered w h a rf in to the stone-paved street. “ I f was s till early in the m orning. The street lay in shadow between the gray warehouses. M any carts rattle d over the cobblestones w ith th e ir loads o f shining fish, green bananas, and golden figs from Ita ly . “ I was so bewildered by the many new things a t w hich to look th a t my eyes were everywhere. I scarcely no ticed when E ric suggested th a t he leave me. to find my way alone. Keep rig h t on as you are going now,’ he said. “The next w h a rf is Commercial W harf, and there you w ill find your store.’ “ I was perfectly w illin g to go by m yself, though sorry to say good-by to E ric. We shook hands and parted. “ I walked along on the inside dock. A fleet o f white-sailed ships came In one a fte r another, coasting between the crooked wharves to come to an chor nearby. Forgetting fo r the mo ment my im portant errand, I stood watching them, and was so absorbed th a t it was not u n til I fe lt a sharp tug a t my elbow th a t I came ou t o f my dreams, and turned to find a ragged boy standing beside me.

Lati- hours and w ild festivities are no part o f the present life o f one who had reached adnlt life when the bells clanged and whistles tooted, and horns blew, as 1900 was ushered in.

OF 'COTOSB1 it had been un- Wise fo r Tim B rafly to boy a car w hile the house was s till so. far. from being paid fo r. Just becaiise fo r ten years Tim had held a good job w ith a. good firm ' was no reason for counting on tlie job and the firm lasting f 6r another fen years, o r fo r five years or even one year more. As a m aitter o f fact, it lasted ju s t six months, a fte r .Tlm contracted to buy the car. B tit th a t iS getting ahead o f the story:' Tim wanted the c a r'fo r Madge, fo r w ith three little children to care fo r Madge, was pretty w ell tied, dawn. . A car would mean th a t she could pack the children in aiid drive to town to call on her old friends. And on Sun day they could a ll drive out into the real country and have picnics. That was how Tim had reasoned when he took his $500 share o f A unt Louise’s legacy and plunged the whole amount fo r the down payment on a shiny hew sedan. - • As fo r Madge, she took her $500 share and had an o il painting o f tie three jo lly blue-teyed Brady.youngsters, painted—Madge, had always wanted a really good p o rtra it o f the children. And now a il three o f the children were a year older than when Aunt Louise’s legacy had arrived. Tim was w ithout a job th a t paid enough to keep things going, fo r the old firm had failed, and try as best he. could the orders fo r the new firm did not build up commission checks large enough to meet a ll the necessary expenses o f the household. Thefinance company had taken back the not-quite-so-shiny, not-quite-so-new sedan. Madge stopped taking cream. She and Tim drank m ilk In th e ir cof fee. Madge gave up having a woman come in to help her w ith the cleaning, and she stopped sending the washing out, but did everything save the spreads and sheets herself. The money talks between Tim and Madge turned in to arguments, the ar guments in to recrim inations, the re crim inations in to quarrels. “ I f only you had ktept your promise to let, me manage the budget,” ex claimed Madge reproachfully the night o f the day the man came and cut o ff the e le ctricity because o f the long overdue b ill. “ You know I got the car fo r the sake o f you and the children,” defend ed Tim . “ I t would have been more to the point to make sure o f, a house ro o f over our heads,” snapped Madge in return, fo r Madge had been lying awake nights w orrying about the pay ments due on the little house, and her disposition was showing the results o f sleeplessness. “ I didn’t notice you spending any o f your share o f the legacy on a roof,” retorted Tim . “ I always wanted a real p o rtra it o f the children, they’re such darlings,” murmured Madge, gazing fondly a t the tru ly lovely picture, which occupied the place o f honor above the low man te l o f the liv in g room fireplace. “ W ell, you’ve got it,” growled TIm who wanted to read his newspaper, but who couldn’t by the lig h t o f the one candle. “ That’s more than yon can say of what you spent your share on,” an swered Madge, acidly, fo r Madge was worn out from overwork as w ell as sleeplessness. "Oh, the devil, Madge, don’t le t’s go on« ragging th is way about money— it ’s ju s t money, money, money—fight, fight, fig h t” protested Tim . “ Who wants to go on like this?” stormed Madge in return. “I ’m sure I don’t It ’s getting to be too much o f a strain tryin g to put up a" b lu ff o f being happy before the children. I f people can’t keep peace fo r the sake o f the children they ought not to try to go on livin g together fo r th e ir sakes.” “ W ant a divorce?” growled Tim . “No, thanks,” replied Madge, icily, “ though it ’s kind in you to suggest one so prom ptly. A separation w ill do quite nicely.” “A ll rig h t, i f you feel th a t, way about it,” answered Tim , who wanted ju s t a t th a t moment to take Madge in his arms and te ll her ’how sorry he was that sha looked so tired and miserable and how much he loved her, but who was ju st too stubbornly proud to acknowledge he had been in the wrong about buying a car w ith out asking her advice, “ I ’ll take up an offer I had, made me today and go down to South America fo r three years. This job is in Peru and pays a decent salary, so I ’ll be out o f your way and s till able to help support you and the kids.” “ Don’t bother about me,” replied Madge, s tiffly , “ I’ll go rig h t back to my old job—and you know dress de signers get a lo t more money today than they did seven years ago.” Silently Tim sat and-thought o f how fa r. from Berwyn, m., Lim a, Peru, is. S ilently Madge sat and thought o f how fa r from Lim a, Peru,' is Berwyn, 111. ' “ You don’t th in k we ought to try to keep on together fo r a w hile Iongr er-r-for the. childrens’ sake?” ven tured Tim , hopefully. ' 1T ve seen so much fighting recent ly I'm getting to understand how pacifists feel—lPeace at any price’ fo r me from now on” replied Madge, who sim ply ached to go across to Tim and put her arms around him and te ll him how sorry she w as' that she hadn't been satisfied to ju st have some love I bits siie such Iy photographs o f the children taken instead o f spending a ll o f the $500 on an o il p o rtra it, and to te ll him how she knew he was tryin g his lovely best to earn a liv in g fo r the fbm ily, and that she was sorry he looked so tired, and th a t she loved him in to ' in spite of everything, and that was sorry they had drifted into 'a b itte r quarrel. “ A ll rig h t, have it your own way,” assented Tim , w ith an a ir o f resigna tion he was far from feeling. > And ju s t then a young w hirlw ind swept in to the liv in g room, pedaling violently on an outgrown velocipede. “ Oh, Daddy,” exclaimed six-year-old Louise, “ these handlebars are so low they tie my back in hard knots. Moth er said you'd lif t them fo r me again. W ill you?” . “ Sure thing,” answered Tim , w ith forced cheerfulness. “ Just bring me my wrench like a good g irl.” Five minutes later, struggling stub bornly to . adjust the handlebars w ith out asking Madge to help him, Tim was s till m editating on the number o f m iles separating Pern from Berwyn. Nearby Madge, stubbornly refusing to help w ith -the velocipide u n til asked, was reflecting , on the same disturbing m ileaga' vShrewdly Louise gazed a t her moth er and asked: “ W hy don’t you 'hold the handlebars s till fo r Daddy, tha way you usually do?’ “ I—I was sewing,” iam ely answered Madge.i . . A moment later, In the course o f ad ju stin g the worn little handlebars, Tim ’s strong brown hand closed over Madge’s housework roughened, house w ork reddened fingers. Instantly Madge looked up. into Tim ’s eyes and Smiled,, a tired , happy little sm ile. And Tim , leaning close, whispered, “ WeUVmake out some way, sweetheart” “ Not in Peru, Tim . O h l N ot in Peru,” whispered Madge. “ I never could manage a ll three o f them alone.” “ Forget i t ” whispered Tim . “ Secrets?” asked Louise, inqusitive- ly. “ It ’s not a good tim e fo r secrets” . “ There are no secrets,” announced Tim . “ Here’s your bike, good as new. Now Sltip along, Motherand Daddy w ant to ta lk a lo t o f things over.” Side by side, on the shabby liv in g room conch,' Tim and Madge sat, and Tim was saying: “ I th in k perhaps I can get th a t job in town I spoke o f last week; the man they expected to get changed his m ind and w ent to D e tro it The salary isn’t big, but it -would be steady, and I guess we could budget it out to cover the house.pay ments and food, too—th a t is, if* yon s till w ant me around,” he added w ith a good-natured smile. “ Oh, Tim , darling. You know I ’d rather have you around—even i f we fight now and then.” And this tim e Madge smiled good naturedly as she added: " I never did th in k much ot anyway.” Are You Familiar With Original State Names I f the United States were to adopt the recent European, practice o f re viving old-place names, such as Oslo, fo r Christmas, Nidaros fo r Trondh- jem, H elsinki fo r Helsingfors, Wars zawa fo r Warsaw and Praha fo r Prague, the roster o f the forty-eight states would vary in many cases. Nineteen states have different orig in a l Indihn names they could go back to : Alibam u, Arizonac, Quonoktacut, E-dah-hoe, m in i, Ayuhba (Iow a), Kan- za, Kentake, Massawadscbnasch (Massachusetts), Mishigamaw (M ich igan), M issisipi, M issiuri, Ohionhiio, Tanasee, Texia, Ute, Mishkonsing, Mcheuwomink (-Wyoming) and Arkan- sea. Restoration o f old names would re quire Delaware to revert to De Ia W arr, the name selected In honor o f Lord de la W arr. New York was named fo r the duke o f York, b u t If origins were to be pushed back as fa r as possible the Em pire state must revive the old English form , becom ing the Eurewic. Revival o f a historic name, such as ■that o f Lwow fo r Lemberg In Poland, would restore V ert Mont In honor o f the French, Roode Eylandt in re spect to a Dutch explorer, and Ore- jones as a compliment to Spanish con- quistadores. Illin o is serves as an example o f states whose -present names are p it fa lls to the unwary. Persons not fa m ilia r w ith the French adaptation o f the original Indian tribe name pro nounce the last syllable “ noise." George Washington, it is said, called Illin o is country Black Island because he thought the French speUed it He Noir.

Many peasants’ .surnames have crystalized out o f mocking nick names conferred by neighbors. There are on record “ Paunch,” "Leprosy,” "S curf” and many others s till less complim entary. Jews are often in a worse plight than peasants.

"Tonweight,” “Abdominal Dicer” and “ B erlin Blue” are among those re corded.

The recent cold w eather during Novem ber and this first few days of December is not w ithout precedent in the vicinity of W inston-Salem, but has been equaled at least once in the memory* of all ^rowu-ups, according to W . A. W ilkinson, of W inston-Salem. M t. W ilkinson, in talking to a Journal reporter yesterday, stated that it was twelve years ago this m orning that people awoke to find the world white w ith snow. T hat snowfall reached a depth of seven inches and lay on the ground for two m onths, cold w eather prevail ing practically all of the tim e, of course. T he date when this period started, M r. W ilkinson said, was December, 5, 1917. T his extrem e; siege of cold and snow, as mkny peaple will remem- b er.’starved small game such as rabbits and partridges until there was a grave shortage. Some peo pie were known tp take sm all grain out into ithe edges of the forest where the partridges were accus tomed to haunt and leave it there, saving a few coveys of birds which served in succeeding years to re plenish the supply.— W inston Jour nal. Mr. Wilkinson got his date wrong and his snow wasn’t deep enough. It was on the evening of Dec. 11, 1917 that snow began fall ing. On the morning of the 12th when, the people got out of bed they were greeted by a snow that measured around. 11 inches 011 the level, with (drifts a foot and a half deep. The ground was not clear of snow from that date until Feb 3, 1918. On Feb. 2nd, groundhog day, the sun did not shine at all. A warm rain fell all day, which melted the snow and no more bad weather was experienced that win ter. The Record man remembers this occasion very well, for early on t ie morning of Dec. 12th, 34 young men from Davie were sent to a training camp and had much tiou- ble'getting to the depot to catch a 5:30 a. m. train for Charlotte. Lety1s Teach Them to Spell. One of a groqj) of business m ^ | in conversation the other m orning, ventured the opinion that if the famous old ’‘Blue Back Speller” were still a text book in winston* Salem schools, pupils would be re ceiving better preparation in spell ing. H is companions, immediately and heartily agreed with him and several of them proceeded to cite exam ples of ill-preparedness on the part of school graduates. One man deplored the apparent lack of attention given spelling by local schools. H e said that be had occasion frequently to atnpfoy Te- • cent graduates and that practically everyone showed an alarm ing de ficiency in spelling. T hey seemed to know all about sports, oratory, contests of various kinds, etc , but w b arth ey didn’t know about the sim plest form of spelling would fill a book m uch larger than the “ Blue Back ” A nother member of the group a- greed w ith what had been said and cited a recent employee, who receiv ed his high school diplom a only a short tim e ago, but. couldn't even spell “ U nited States’’ correctly. O ther words, were .the s&me—the boy just hadn't been given proiper spelling instructions and evidently had been led to feel that such a a subject was of m inor importance. M aybethe incorrect spelling of one or two word’s isn’t such a seri ous offense. None of us is able to spell all that can be • found in : the . dictionary, but there is no excuse for such exam ples as have been found in the daily business life. A lessening of tim e and attention given the unnecessary ‘'aits’’ and a little more thought and instruction in spelling would give the schools and their products a better name.. —Twin-City Sentinel. !- Buy Christnaas seals, and heip“the ones in Dayie who need help.'
