Everyother thing is from tim e io tim e put in he curriculum , but nobody ha? lone auvthi ng for the art of mud .»ie m aking. W hat a field this would open up! Suppose some expert in mud pie -snaking who is out of job should begin an agitation in behalf of mud pies H e would soon con vince some progressive school board :hat the art of m aking mud pies should be taught in the school and lie should be the teacher. T b t thing spreads to other schools and the idea finds logem ent in the minds of other progressive educat ors. T he subject becomes one of vast im portance and teachers must oe trained. T he higher institutions of the state, responding to the dire need, would add mud pie courses. T here would be a professor and two deans “and at first three stud ents. B ut.this would soon grow. Am bitious young people would flock in. More professors could be added and a dean for each profes sor. T his would he a good start. A propaganda school show ing the wondefful use of m ud pies would be started. A staff of press agents created to sell the idea.. T he State would soon have a bureau of mud pies. T he agitation would reach national-proportions and the feder al governm ent could be forced to establish a mud pie bureau to super vise the the state bureau of mud pies. A nyw here that the mud pie idea got a hold there would be mud pie hends, assistant beads, secreta ries, and first, second and third as sistant secetaries. We are convinced that the mud pie idea is a field for development. But some one may ask, w hat is the use of mud pies, and why should the art be taught? We don’t know that.

(From Clayton News) A t the m orning service Suudav, Poystor W olverton flayed his fiocl roasted them , based th en aud user all m anner-of fiery applications t( irive home his.direU accusation' hat H orne Memorial Methodis1 Church, of Clayton, Johnson comi ty, is a dead church. The sermoi came as the fifth in a series of sev £ii which the pastor is preachim on "C hurch Loyally” and so back up his statem ent as the dead chuvci he cited num erous oi phases 0: church life wherein the member ship shows evident sigus of death slid decay. First of these, according to the pastor, was the failure of many tr attend services after they bad sign ed the.loyal pledge cards, in whici' they promised to attend churcl once each Sunday for seven Sun days. T he finances of the church, in t deplorable condition, was anothei charge; a recent exam ination of the- treasurer’s books by the pastoi showed that many members had not contributed a penny during the year. T he young people's work had reached a standstill, he finds no ac tivities am ong the young people, the Epw orth League, one of the greatest training agencies in the church, has passed into oblivion. But his most convincing argu m ent to prove the charge was the m anner in which the members have reacted to the scathing sermons he has pieached at num erous times. He,charged that they took theii puuisbm ent ljin g down, not show ing enough life even to fight-back. H e compared them to the drunken so t,'^who1 when charged w ith his sinfulness, just adm its his guilt, and slinks away to end up in the first saloon to contiuue in his ac customed ways. Mr. W olverton claimed that when the conference sent him to Claylon, he was congratulated on his ap pointm ent aud told that the Clay ton church was one of the livest and best in the conference'. ' A fter a.year as its pastor, he had found it just the reverse, ■ A fter such a lam basting by their pastor, the mem bership of Horne Memoriai should either ship him or get busy aud show, him that he was wrong, that they yet have life enough to come back even from death itself, for after all, as the preacher said, death is a process and not au event, and there may re main enough of the vital spark to set things on fire again, and the church may yet shine as if did in the years past. “ Thou hast a name to live” ; aud reminded of this, H orne Memorial may live a gain.

Reminder of a Bygone Day. The. story comes from N orth western N orth Carolina that corn- sliuckings are soon to be the ordei' pt the day. But the announcement carries little m eaning in these ad vanced times. W hat once woulc have been hailed happilv by thoiis ands, now is received with but mile concern. In the gay nideties and even i. the earlv part ot the tw entieth cer. turv a connshucking in the north western counties was au occasion 0 great m om ent—especially if it wa: a big cornsliucking. Some farm ers raised severa hundred bushels of corn and iuvit ed the neighborhood to the shuck ing. T he people shucked corn throughout the afteruoon and cele brated pretty well throughout thi night. Old friendships were strent: tliened; new friendships were made. And, even a lot of old feuds were fought out or settled around these trem endous piles of corn T he best cooking the world could afford was in evidence at these cornshucking's. Amazing, appetites greeted the cooking. Indigestion was unknow n, as healthy men aud women assimilated the heavy meals they consumed by honest toil through long hours. Of course, there are some excep tions, but the general rule is that cornshuckings are a thing of the past.

He would have had to engineer the Gandhist movement in India and the Bolshevik revolution in Russia. He would have had to stir up China to a constant state of rebellion and blood shed.

The forest fires whlcli have raged Iq Idaho and other*- western sections this year have presented a serious dis aster—one of a number, in addition to the enormous drought relief problems, which have been met by the American •Red Cross relief forces. . Suffering," faith and courage are contained in a story coming from the Priest River section in Idaho, told by a volunteer Red Cross worker as fol lows: . "Picture a happy little homestead near, the banks of Priest river In northern Idaho. While father, with a little son tagging at his-heels, is out tending crops and adding to the clear Jng, mother is at home making prepa rations for another arrival. Then comes the fire demon, sweeping all in Its path. While father fights to pro tect his little home, the stork an nounces Its-arrival. "M other and baby are bundled in a quilt and loaded on a truck for the race through the flaming forest. Father drives the truck and the little boy sits at his mother’s side, brushing away the sparks which fall like rain upon the improvised litter.” To the Red Cross worker, the mother expressed her.anxiety to return to the hills to' rehabilitate the little home stead. AU they possessed was lost in the forest fires. The Red Cross aided all of the families and is working to help them rebuild their homes. Altogether seven ty*nine disaster.= called for Red Cross help and money during the year just closed. Aside from the drought, which required ser vices of volunteer workers numbering more than 60.000. and.a drought relie! fund of more than $15,000,000 of which $5,000,000 came from the national Re< Cross treasury, help was given in 2: fires, 13 tornadoes, eight storms and eight floods, six forest fires, four earthquakes and four mine explosions three typhoons and three epidemics two cloudbursts, and one each burri cane, mine cave-in and railroad acci dent. Aside from a 'major catastrophe sv.eh as the drought, when the whole public was asked to contribute funds for relief. Red Cross relief in these disasters was met from the organiza tion’s funds and from special local con tributions. Part of each membership, subscribed to Red Cross Chapters at the roll call period from Armistice Day to Thanksgiving Day, goes toward this important work. s *^ ■ •• a w R e 4 > u i r m i m s f M * £__________ ‘SUBMIT 0$ A id fo r W a r V e te ra n s More than 430,000 ex-service men and their families were aided through 3,008 Red Cross Chapters and the na tional organization during the year ending June 30, 1931.

This activity, carried on by a great number of devoted women volunteerr In Red Cross Chapters, had its inrep tion in preparing books for war blinded. Chief Justice Hughes In Tribute to Red Cross . Oue of the finest tributes ever paid the American Red Cross and its membership was that by Chief Jus tice Charlee Evans Hughes, of the United States Supreme Court, 011 the occasion of the fiftieth birthday anniversary of the organization on Afay 21 of this year. Mr. Hughes said: “The American Red Cross repre sents the united voluntary-effort of the American people in the minis try of mercy. It’is the finest and most effective expression of the American heart. It kuows no par tisanship. In the perfection of its cooperation, there is no blerni6h of distinctions by reason of race or creed or political philosophy. '"However we may differ in all things else, in the activities of the Red .Cross we are a united people. Afone of our boasted industrial enter prises surpasses it in efficiency. . . , ft.moves W itbvt^ precision and tiie discipline of an armyv^to achieve the noblest of human aims. "The American Red Cross is. not only first In war but.fir&t in peace. The American people rely upon its : ministrations In every great catas trophe. It has given its aid in over* one^thousand disasters. When, a s ; we hope, war.^ylikbe-no more, still the Red Cross. In 'he countless ac tivlties of-relief-and rehabilitation, will continue to function as the or ganized compassion of our country.” Seed Cotton Is Worth 4 C e n t s a P o u n d .

The New Y ork Tim es is Pollv amiaiug, iu a dignified way, when it spreads out statistices from the tiles to the effect that in 7928 thert were in this country some 3 000, 000 to 4.000.000 unemployed, and “ today we look back to the years from 1924 to the end of 1929 as an era of freak prosperity which wt had better dismiss from our minds as e .^r coming again.” O urcon- iem porary finds iti the compara tive statistics of unem ploym ent, in the U nited States, in G reatB ritain1 in G erm any, now and three vear> ago, suggestion that “ the patient’s trouble is not arterio-sclerosis but indigestion.” The Tim es is taking issue with those'w ho hold it proved by new conditions, that notw ith standing business has made a fine recovery, this time is is doom, doom, utter and final. The Tim es' figures as to this country do not prove anything with finality; a country m ight, conceiv ably, get along swim mingly with two millions unemployed, and be undone utterly with twice as many. Yet one does not have to Pollyauna to pause upon the question w hether unem ploym ent and stagnation ot trade are identical and co-extensive, so that w hat is predicted of the one m ust be predicted of the other. The proof is plenary th at there is cash iu the old sock. Millions have been taken our of the banks, and certainly not throw n to the winds. It the checking accounts have shrunk, the savings deposits have piled up, to the point where the banks declare they cannot afford to pay the tim e-honored rates of in terest. T here are possibilities of tre mendously more trade than exists, unemployed, Money is restless, mercurial. It will pop into hiding like a rat into a hole at the - least scare, but let things quiet down a bit and it quickly forgets its fright and comes slipping out again.— Greensboro News. Chair Cheated Again. It seems almost impossible for the eourts to have their sentences car ried out and to get by the Gover nor’s office in Raleigh. Bernice Matthews and J. W. Ballard con victed in Rowan court of the wilful and prem editated m urder of Frank Stewart, filling station operator on September 7 and sentenced to die in the chair Friday, October 23. ap pealed to a tender hearted Governor and he reprieved this pair of m urder ers until November 24. by that tim e in all probablity they will become ‘insane” or the eminent ali- nt from Raleigh will declare they have the “ mentality of a 10-year old child” and the four m urder of Frank Stew art will go unaverged. Two other negro m urders, Ernest Herring, .who killed Postm aster Newton, of K err, Sampson county, who was scheduled to die Thursday and Dudley Moore, slayer of Mrs. Jacob Berrier, in Davidson county who was to pay for his crime on Friday both are still alive thanks to an appeal made to the Supreme court by their counsel. N either men had any money and it would be in teresting to know who is putting up the cash to pay these lawyers to take these cases on appeal to the Supreme Court —Union Republican.

AU In The Game. /In the Daily News’ account ol Guilford county's latest prohibitior enforcement drive, there is thi; paragraph which holds special in terest- Nam es of those arrested were not made public. Mr. Osteen explain ed that m any of the prisons were arrested on suspicion. H eexplajn erf that a list of those arrested would uot be announced until the drive is completed aud formal charges pre fit red against all of those arrested T nat may be the usual procedure iu such round ups of dry law viola tors, perhaps is, but even w ide spread and recognized usage fails tr remove certain disconcerting ns pects which appear on the surface The reports sm acks strongly of general instructions to go out and g et'em regardless, that it doesn’t m atter if a tew inuoceut citizens are caught in the dragnet; just run the whole caboodle to jail and we’ll find out later how m any of the crowd can prove that they are uot guilty and against whom forma) charges are to be preferred. The names of those arrested, a term which thus must be used in a tech nical sense, are uot to be announced; but a night or longer iD jail doesn’t m atter until the w hat can be se parated from the tares. As fore stated, that may lie the approved prohibition enforcem ent method, but some way it doesn’t seem to set exactly right even w ith friends of dry laws who are interested iu re lative rights and values. Sufficient instances of needless shootings have served to convince the public that prohibition agents enjoy far from a perfect percentage in their selective suspect average. — Greensboro News. Zeb No 10-Bushel Diner Zeb Green has a trading turn of mind and a few days ago he w ent into the Cole’s cafe and tried to trade cotton or seed for dinner. And Old K iug Cole, whose dinners are 40 cents, after figuring a bit on his cork leg, advised Zebulan that he would give him dinner for 10 bushels of cotton seed or S pounds of cotton’ lint, and would furnish with the dinner all the frills that go with a gentlem an's meal. /Zeb Green, who has preached conservatism all the days of his life, could uot make up his mind to eat 10 bushels of cottoij seed at one time. H e said he had better feed it to his cow. It would pro duce in all probably 200 gallons of milk, w ith a dash of lespedeza thrown in. So he hooked up his galluses and resoluted anew.—T. B. Lanev.

And taxes were lowered at least tw enty five per cent: this old busi ness would not look the same to morrow. W hy don’t these fellows that have about all the money in the country turn some of their cash loose, and in this way boost wages and the price of farm products? If the right persons would only start the ball rolling there would not be very m uch more of this so-called period of depression. — W ilkes Journal. . A neighboring editor friend of ours told us recently of a calling down he received recently. He wrote up a neighborhood reunion and gave the list of those present. There were 319.

Following a quiet little dinner in Mew York a few nights since i' A'as announced that a committee had been appointed to raise a fund >f $ 1 ,500,000 tor the Deniocratii Mational Committee, and that the lrive for this neat little sum was to ie really but a curtain raiser to :i later large drive at which $4,500.- DOO was to be raised. T he firs nillion and a half, we are told, i? '0 be divided in half— $750,000 is tr ;o to release the m ortgage whici Mr. Raskob holds on the party, ind the other $750 000 is to go to neet the expenses of the Publicity Bureau and other party machinery ip to the tim e of the national con vention. Then it is expected thai the four and a half millions will really start. O ur Democratic friends talk a lot about depiessiou but it is ibvions from these figures that the\ Io not believe in it. Tim es can not be so awfully hard, they must argue, or they would not ask that six million dollars be raised to :arry on a caiugaign for the party that has elected only two men to the presidency in seventy-five years. As a Foreigner Sees It. The editor of a London newspaper aas been spending six months in the United States visiting all sections of the country and in a parting state m ent he declares he sees on the sur face of life “ few signs in any A merican city of the service distress which I was assured by nearly, every one would create in the coming winter one of the gravest social pro blems in American history.” The standard of living is still very much higher in America than f.nywhere eise in the world, this widely travel ed observer declares, and America >f all classes “ live with an air ol >pulence th at cannot be matched in any European country.” And then he adds: “ They are more finely clothed They eat better and more varied food. They live in more material comfort. The working classes have a wider marg n of personal plea sures. They enjoy luxuries which no other proletariat could possibly afford. ‘Hundreds of thousands of work ing men travel to the factories and mills every morning in th tir own motor cars. The motor i3 to an A- merican working man what a bicy cle or a 2 penny tram car ride is to an English artisan. “-Until he has crossed the Atlantic Ocean theaverageA m erican citizen cannot clearly perceive the chasm that separates his own conception of social com fort from jthat of the aver age European.” Ware Women and Autos!

The purpose of the Federal Farrr Loans was good. It was to prnvich 'arm ers with money at a low rate of interest and allow paym ents on Fr easy amortization plan. It was ex pected that it would prove helpful most, of all and principally to vounp farm ers who were seeking to owt their own homes and farm s But these loans have largely failed cf their purpose, in that they have largely failed of their purpose, ir that they have caused farm -rs to p c into debt who really had no m-ed foi borrowing money and who real’s had no need for borrowing mone> and who sought buy fine clothes and automobles and other thinns the> aad better have done without. They were encouraged to do this bv the land banks, for the land banks were in this business for the money they could make out of it, and the more business the money. Accordingly, it was easy for a farm er to g„-t 8 loan approved for forty per cent of the value of his farm as it was when lands were high. The effect on the farm er was that he turned to high living. So long as cotton and to bacco were selling for good prices he was able to pay his semi-annual amortization assessment, although even then he often had to appeal to his Iocai bank for help. Now that he can raise cotton and tobacco only at a loss', he has had to default on his payments, and in many cases the land banks are having to sell the lands. This is a situation never con tem plated by the land banks. The loans on the farm s were considered the safest in the world as thev were for only forty per cent of their value as fixed by the bank’s assessors, and. there was no throught of a day when the farm s would not bring in oper m arket the am ount of the loans-'. But times change Today it is al.; >ut impossible to sell land in North 'arolina. and the banks are beinp forced to take in the farm s which hey are selling by foreclosure. Land H the last thing' in the world banks want, and they wili doubtless r.ffer their holdings for sale at almost any price And doubtless the thought of paying taxes on all this land dis turb them —Biblical Recorder. Things Done In “Good Old Days/ If you can recall some of these things which occurred during what is often referred to as the “ good old days,” then you are entitled to he classed as an “ old-tim er:” Can you remember when folks stayed at home and popped corn and ate apples? When you rode on the one horss delivery rig? When bar bers told funny stories. When dad used the razor strop and said it hurt him most? When children walked to school? When the whole family sit on the front porch on Sunday afternoon afternoons? When mother cut your hair around a bowl? When you looked forward all winter to the old swimmin’ hole and the no piece bathing suit? When you rode a bike on the old wooden sidewalk? When the children got in at night before their parents went to bed? When an evening out was as big an event as an evening at home now? When bread was a nickel, when pies were ten cents and you could trade an egg egg a t the grocery for a penny stick of candy?—Ex A lot of people who rather brag on the moral conduct are free to peddle idle aud vicious gossip a- bout others. As a m atter of tact a truly out and ont wicked ■ person causes less harm iu the world than a m oralist wdo is also a gossip. W hen you see a man honking his ham im patiently iu a traflic jam and.otherw ise show ing hi.s un governable impetieuce, it is a safe guess that at home he has to ask if he can get off for the evening to " attend lodge ' H as your wife a keen apprecia tion of hum or we asked a man on the street yesterday, “ yes,” he re plied, “ the more I hum or her the better she.likes it.” Cctton Farmers. A tenant farm er, a colored man T-is this account of Iis farm ing for he year. Hh cultivated twelve to ourt.een acres of cotton He has licked teven 500-pound bales, and ias sold it for $175 From this he nd his landlord deducted the cost of the ferti izer which they had bought n time, both the guano used ac planting and the soda used as a top lresser. The cost of this was $85 , saving them net $90, half of which, ?45. belonged to the tenant. But -vhiie he was picking he had g it some food for his family for which he had Co pay now, and his net return for ■lis sum m er’s work was $10 There ire about two .T io re bales in the bales in the field, but the tentant’s chil- Iren are in school and he is not much mcouraged to pick it. The tenant ives in a rented house in town, for which he he had agreed to pay $1 50 i week; while he was farm ing he had i j ib at which he got work about two days in the week, at which be nade hardly enough to buy his food. Accordingly, with the consent of his his landlord he let his rent go unpaid tor nearly six months, promising to pay in the fall, when he sold his cotton. But ee was unable to keep nis premise, and the landlord m ust either turn him out or let him con tinue in the house without pay. This tenant, however, has two acres of sweet potatoes and has had a good garden, from which he has got much. Now take his landlord. He has furnished and received $45 with the promise of $30 more if his tenant picks the rem inder of the cotton. It can be seen that the taxes on the land on which this cotton field is a oart is a considerable sum. and when that is added to the cost of feeding nule and the wear of tools, the Iand- ■ord has little or nothing left. There are many farm ers in N orth Carolina, more this year than usual, •vho have made enough foodstuffs to live at home. When cotton was Bell ing for five cents a pound some thir ty or more years ago this class of farm ers were independent; taxes were low and they owed no money land banks. Today it is different: taxes are high and many, owe semi annual assessments at land banks. Before they can say they are inde* pendent, today they must provide tba money for these things In these m atters the conditions of the tenant farm er is better than that of his landlord, and the condition of the small farm er usually better than that of I he one who has manv tenants AU of them have our sympathy, and we hope that all will make a strong, brave effort to come through. In the meantime our farm ers m ust be thinking for themselves how they will remedy conditions.—Biblical Re corder. There Are Others.

Avoid injury by faciug traffic. “The year of tbe great drought," as these past twelve or more months will be known to future generations, wrought great damage to millions. Not alone did the crops, which were burned in the fields in twenty-three states, in the summer of 1930, deprive several million persons of food, but the drought disaster continued in the summer of 1931 in the northwestern states, and also brought other minor catastrophes in its wake, such as for est fires, and the grasshopper plague. •' More than a year has elapsed since the American Red Cross launched, in August, 1930. its first moves for relief of the drought-stricken farmers, and in that time more than 2,750.000 per sons were given food, clothing, med ical aid, shelter or other type of as sistance. At no period during this year Tyeii?. there fewer than 70,000 persons aided and at the peak of the-Y ef^^vork on March I, last, more th'ap\ ^pkllOOO persons were be ing helped A \V |, Today/' still\% s ;a result of the drought the iiyto Cross is giving ex tended i\elief U isgrts of North Dakota, W ashington am telontana. where re sources «f itunoV^s Ofj families were wiped -out Jiltitji i\yit summer, when a second a im .tto ts||ev ere spell of dry weather w i^ttiS i^g ed in that region. This drohfA j=||iief presented the greatest tas1r|lpiiifkas ever been un dertaken by t^ y fip Cross as a peace time activity.

In addition fo the broad program of drought relief still being carried on, John Barton Payne, chairman of the American JRed Cross, has given the following suggestion to Chapter chairmen, in regard to unemployment relief: "W here there is suffering and want from any cause and the funda mental local needs are not being met, Chapters may participate in the com munity plans, for meeting the need." Some type of general family relief. Whether for the drought victims, the unemployed or the war veteran and his family, were carried on by more than 3,000 Red Cross Chapters last year, Judge Payne said. "The drought relief work of 1930- 31," he added, "the relief now being extended following last summer’s drought, principally In Montana and North Dakota; the assistance which Is being given ro ex-service men and their families: and the part which several hundred Chapters are taking locally in their communities’ ralief measures are activities of the Red Cross, national and local, which have met and are meeting some of the seri ous needs of the present situation."

Camp-Meeting at Har mony. J. H enry Tharpe, in Statesville Re cord. T his place was form erly known as H arm ony H ill, and the people used to go and tent and was known asjHarm ony Hill Campground. The second Sunday in October has been the date for som ething like a hun dred years and the people would gather for fifty miles to worship and they used to gather for that purpose in the long, long ago but for the past 25 years the people hnve gathered there to see their friends, shake hands w ith each oth er and have a general good time. But, to me me. H arm ony has lost of its charm . I see so few of the people there I used to see long ago, I lived there from 1S90 to 1900. I have lived here since, thirty years, but have missed but few tim es go ing back to the annual campm'eet- ing but I went to see m y friends. I will just own up W hen I first com menced going I had to go in thirty m inutes I was there last Sunday and the oldest man there was W . E. Currant and I asked him some questions a- bout the place and be told me some things that I did not know. He said he was 86 years old and he was three years old when they built the first arbor, one that was torn down two years ago, which -would m ake the arbor 81 yeers old. T hey had had m eetings up the road about a mile for som ething like 20 years before that, s& that would m ake the m eeting place over 100 years old.' A bout 1845 A lfredC urrant1 fath er of W . E . C urrent, and Asbury H ayes deeded about 30 acres to some trustees for a Uuion Camp ground so long as it was used for all denom inations to w orship there. T heie was a row of. tents all 'around the arbor, built of logs or of framed lum ber, ab iu t 75 yards from the arbor and these would be full of people tented there and the m eet ing would last from Saturday night, through W ednesday night. They had services at sunrise, prayer meeting, at nine o'clock, preach ing at at 11 o'clock, preaching,- at II at o’clock, preaching at 2 o’clock and “ early candlelight” preaching again; five services in one day and the atbor would be full at all the sarvices except the early m orning services. T b er signal for services was horn or trum pet blown by W il liam Green, and lie blew it as long as he lived, 50 years or more. H e would m ount the “ stand” and begin blowing and would turn clear a- round before he stopped and this would be repeated three tim es T he horn had such a volume that it was heatd for miles around. W hen he died John T . T harpe took it up and blew it as long as the arbor stood. T here were three posts planted at each corner of the arbor, about tw enty feet away, and -on top of these posts were laid big flat rocks and on them was piled “ light wood.” We used used to call it pine and that was kept burniug during the service to light the grounds ‘rouud-about. It would take about a load for each stand and there was a lot it in the coun try at th at time. \ T he arbor would seat about 1500 people and it w ould be full and as m any more on the outside, especial Iy on Sundays. T hey put staw on the floor, dirt floor, and at the front they would have plenty of if and that space w ith the front benches was set apart for the "m ourners’ bench” and I have seen from 25 to 50 down on their knees at one time and I have seen from, 10 to 23 shouting at one time. T he people never got to hear preaching as often as we do now and when they got together and got warmed up they certainly enjoyed them selver. Fifty years ago the hum ble scribe, found peace and I know many others that did. Back 50 and 60 years ago. go ing to H arm ony H ill to the camp m eeting was going some where. We used to go and tent and there wa; the grandest occasion of 111 v life and I have never been anywhere since that gives me such a thrill as going to the Camp M eeting, when I was a boy Some of the preachers that would be in attendance, and there was a preachet’s tent too, as I can think of them now were; Benuie W eisuer, Smoot Rockenwell, M arcus L. Wood J. F. England, E. L. Stanl ey, Safoid, J. C. Rowe, Reynolds, W ellborn, Barker Coley, and hosts of others and I tell you some oi them could preach too. I m ight mention a few of thc the families tnat was there 50 years ago; G aiihers1T urners, Stim psons, Holmes, Colverts, A lbeas1 B aggar Iys Tharpes, Lazenbys1 Hayes. Daltons, Greens, Powers, H eaths, G attons. Barnards, Campbells and many others that I can’t recall now ■ J never saw over a dozen people there that were there 50 years ago. Co-Operation At Ail Times. It is interesting to note that of all the plaus that have been suggested to aid the farm er, only one has been given anyihing like unani mous approval by experts — the farm co operative. Co-operation, both in producing and m arketing, m ust be dom inant factor in anypro- grarn designed to restore prosperity to agriculture. It is souud in eco ubniic principle—a fact that has been proven by Am erican m anu facturing industries, as well as by long-established farm co operatives — and it produces definite results. It cannot be too often pointed out that the individual farm er, when he goes to sell his products, is at an inescapable disadvantage. H e m ust take w hat is offered, or fail to sell. But when he bands to gether with ten or fifty or a hund red thousand other farm ers, the shoe is on the other foot, H e has become “ big business” himself, and he can bargain and make fair terms. It. is said that one barrier in the, way of successful co-opertive, in the past, has been the virtual re fusal of many farm ers to co-operate when times are com parately good. T hen, when bad tim es come along, they are w ithout the organization and m achinery for taking decisive action. If the present severe agri cultural depression has taught farm ers that thev m ust co-operate all the lime and under all circum stances il they are to prosper, it will have done a great deal for the American farm ing industry.—Charlotte Ob server. World’s Tallest Man. The w orld's tallest man. a resident of Persia, has arrived a t Teheran to get his passport to England He is only 18 years old and is reported to be 12 feet high. He is going to England to receive treatm ent to stop from growing any taller. His arm s are so long th at he is unable to put food into his mouth in the ordinary way. He is obliged to to feed himself by putting h’S arm once around his head and arriving at his mouth in this curious fashion. His face is like that of an old man. His eyes are very small. As he is unable to walk by himself, two men have to escort bim-at all times, hold: ing him up by the arm pits. This exhausts h is' attendants for they have to stretch their own arms ! far above their heads in order to reach the the giant’s arm pits. T here ..are two kinds of men: Those you can trust, and those who agree w ith everything you say. Laney Is Easy It is T. B. Laney. the philosoph er who writes for the Monroe Jour nal, rem arking: “ T alking about paving debts, very rew people living that would not pay if they had the money. They want to pay and get the burded be hind, but can’t. It is awful to have the will to pay and-be handi capped so that you can’t. M ust believe that Philosopher Laney’s experience in credits must be limited, or that his constituents must be different from the run of :he mine, which m ay be doubted. It is more probable that Mr. Laney is charitable judging m ankind gen erally by his own disposition. Since lie wouldn’t allow a debt to staud if he had the cash he figures that most folks are the same way. It would be impossible to fix the pro portion, but M r. Lanev’s state ment th at very few would refuse .0 pay if they had the money is challenged as contrary to tlie’aver- age hum an experience, exceptions but proving the rule. Some people pay because they want to pay. O thers pay as a m at ter of habit, custon, not because of desire; and others because they feel they will be compelled. !But the num ber that don’t and won’t pay is astonishingly large. T he num ber who deliberately defraud when they feel they can’t be reached is not a few. By far the greatest num ber of deadbouts is comprised in the class who make debts and then they refuse to make an honest effort to pay. They go on spend ing their nionoy ou themselves and pretend they can’t meet their ob ligations. They can’t understand their method ot procedure because they are unw illing to deny them- selves, to m ake any sacrifice, to pay the creditor who came to their help in their hour of need. This class of deadbeats is the largest we have and the meanest. T hey wouldn’t pay if they had the mone'y except for the purpose of deception, to get a larger extension of credit with toe purpose to defraud, A lot of folks who have gone dead broke because of deadbeats will list Mr. Laney among the in nocently ignorant in. his knowledge of the hum an disposition about debt- paying. T he honor who moves to debt-paying as a sacrifice if need be, is couspicious because it is rare. —Statesville Daily. Who Gets Arrested: The Concord Tribune says that a short item in the paper stating that police nabbed a negro gam bling game at the fair ground, there being $1.10 at stake, sfroused much furor among the readers of the paper. The comment came about over the thought that the police had made this arrest over a dollar gam e when there were num erous gambling games running wide open on the fair grounds, only a few feet away. Every year after' the fairs there is comment on this practice of perm it ting skin games to operating skin games to operate to the hourt of the visitors. Some times the practice is universal and quite extensive, much real money being taken by those who practice the art. It has always been thus and perhaps ever will be, but it does seem as if this could and would be eliminated from all fairs. W hat any one w ants to fool wiih these games we have ever been able to see There has never been a time when the player has a chance to win, and aside from winning what what could there be in; the play. . Fairs everywhere will lose nothing and gain much by way of friendly in terest if they will drive these skin games out and keep them out.— Salisbury Post. .- ■ In a liquor raid iu Kansas re ports state that five hundred em pty beer bottles were found in the kitch en.

One thing never to be forgotten (although it frequent is) is that there ii an immense am ount of business be ing transacted every day in this country and there- always will con tinue to be. Here are 125 million people, the most energetic and en- t uprising people in the world, who have been used to living well. They have educated themselves to want a lot of things and ro get what they want. Is it conceivable that a coun try filled with such people can re main very long in the dumps? No body in America is starving or going naked. This means that every day in every community food is being bought and clothes and shoes. Pro bably not less than 90 per cent, of the people are enjoying their uiual income, and that means that some thing like 100 million people are sup plying themselves with beating ap pliances. coal, feeds, hardware, no tions. furniture, jewelry, insurance and thousands of common use or adornm ent, spending enormous sums of money daily for all these commo dities. There are something like 6 million automobiles in daily use throughout the country and they are patronizing filling stations and gar ages and restaurants and hotels. Let us by no means overlook the 10 per cent, or less (probably a great deal less) of their more fortunate neighbors ir> order to get com fort ably through the winter. B ut let us concentrate on the 90 per cent < f people who are going about their usual employments and enjoyments in the usual wav see if such concen tration does not bring us to a more cheerful fram e of mind.

Tariff Attracts Industries Political opponents of Hoover Ad ministration, eagerly searching for mme cause of complaint to be laid at its doors, have pointed to the fact that certain American industries have established branches in Euro pean countries as what they call "proof” that the “ Hawlev Smoot tariff law is “ driving American in- dustustry abroad ” From the out cry that is made one m ight be led to believe that American capital was never invested outside of America before the passage of the new tariff law, and that the investm ent of for eign capital in America was . also an unheard of thing. Of course the truth is that interna tional investments have been a com monplace for hundreds of years. Ever since enterprising men began to accumulate capital enough they have sought envestment for that capital around the world. A striking illus tration of the extent to which Europe hail invested in America was given at the beginning of the W orld War when the countries engaged in the conflict began to round up their outside investments England found that her supjects had invested no less than 2 billion dollars in some thing like 2 thousand different issues of American factories and real estate r-iiloads and the like. When our Allien Property Custodian took over Germany properity in the United States it w as’ found to total about 525 million dollars This was actual ly exceeded by the L ittle N ether lands which had investments here am ounting to more than 750 million dollars, while France had nearD as much. And the suprising thing is that foreign investm ents and depo sits in the United States are tod? V even larger than before the w ar A t the end of last year we owed foreign ers abriut 7S billion dollars so that aeain the greatest debtor nation' in history on private account, and in spite of our huge European credits. In w hat American industry are for eign investors putting their surplus funds? Well, there istheir rayon in dustry for one thing, the new textile giant. Of the twenty-three corpora tions m anufacturing rayon in this country twenty are branch plants of European interests. Iocidentally most of them are south of the M-ison* Dixon Line and pay cut wages of ap proximately 40 million dollars a year —and they are all here because of our tariff. Then thereare the filling Stations taken over by the hundreds bv a foreign-owned nil corgoraiioi; there are many foreign-owned m otor and tire, factories here; a great va riety of our im portant chimical lab oratories are foreign-owned, to say nothing of huge investments in A- merican stocks and bonds the trading in wh'ch stocks and bonns, the trad ing in which on the New York esv changedast year by foreigners is es tim ated at' $4 200.000.000. American capital is seeking foreign investments, therefore, is not "flying away from our tariff.” it is merely following an age long custom. Right now the chances are most of these investments can be accounted for, not by the American tariff but by the tariffs of other countries. N o ti, for example, more than 100 inquiries lately addressed by American indus trialists to the American Chamber of Commerce in London looking to the establishment of American industries in the British Isles in case G reat Britain should adopt the tariff idea. These-industrialists are looking for ward to the possibility of putting their products on the British m arket behind the British tariff wall, just 83 the rayon people, for example.' brought their industry here in order that (hey m ight reach the American m arket behind the American tariff wall. And it is all right International investm ents are a svmbol of inter national confidence, and a prom oter of international good will. By his investm ent the foreign capitalist has in effect placed a bet on the peace and prosperity of the country where the money is invested and therefore m ust have a personal interest in the continuation of that peace and prosr . j perity.

THE D From present indications Davie will not harvest half as large a w heat crop next year as was bar vested this year T he price will no doubt be higher but- many tanners may have to buy their bread. The drought has prevented many farm ers from sowing a full crop, and if rain doesn’t soon come the wheat already sown will not come up Some of our folks are consider ably frightened over the possibility of having to quit growing seven cent cotton and shouldering a gun and going to war. It is hard .to grow cotton for seven cents a pound 'lint mos£ folks had rather. grow it for even less than to be forced to take up arm s and fight another world war. T he last war rni-ed the price of cotton to 45 cents, but nobody wants such high prices All R epublicatisaie not had fei lows.

State Republicans Talli Of Convention. North Carolina Republicans art- ginning to give serious considera tion to the matter of the party’s national conventional which will fct held in June ot next year at a point to be determined by the nation&l committee December 1 5. By reason of the fact that the Re publican presidental electors st- cured s majority in North Carolira in 1 9 2S there will be seven dele gates-at-large from the state to I’m Republican national convention in 1932 instead of four as in 1 9 2 8 a Kansas City, Mo. Because of thi increased Republican vote cast iu the first, third and sixth (the tjew seventh) congressional districts the party will have three more dele gates from congressional district* than in 1 9 2 8. Creation of the new sixth district will provide for twi additional Republican delegates. Iti other words, North Carolina will have 2 8 delegates at the next Re publican national convention by comparison with 2 0 at the last one. In 1928 the four delegates-at- large were Brownlow Jackson, then state chairman; National Commis- teeman Charles A. Jonas1 William G. Bramham and David H. Blair. It is the custom of the party to the party to elect its stale chair man and its national committee man delegates-at-large to the na tional assumed that State Chair man James S. Duncan and_Nation al Committeeman-Jonas will be a mong the seven delegates at large to next year's national convention. Home Robbed of $3,100 Every few days we read about some family having money' Stolen from their homes, indicating that they are atraid of the banks. This is not only true now, but the re cords will sho'.v' that thousands have mave made the same uiistakp in the past. The latest robbery report comes from Rowan county' and it reads as follows: Henry Starnes, well known farm er of the lower edge of Providence township, this county, whose place borders on the Yadkin River, is minus $3, ioo, the result of some one breaking in the residence Sun day morning some time between 10 and 12 o’clock, while Mr. Starnes and family were attending services at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church, OU theBtingle ferry road leading to High Rock lake, about two miles, road route from St. Mat thew’s Church. The money was kept in a bureau drawer iu one of the bedrooms of the Starnes’ home and was in bills of various denominations. When the faculty returned from church it was discovered that some one had gained entrance by breaking open a widow. The house hadjbeenpai- tially ransacked but so far as learn ed the $3 ,1 0 0 is all that was taken. Officers have no clue to the robbery. —Twin City Sentinel. The Drivers Job. When the city of New Haven, Conn.. succeeeded in passing four consecutive months this year with out a single fatal automobile acci dent, the rest .of the country began "to wonder devoutly how it had been accomplished. The answer, it de velops, lies chiefly in the fact that New Haven set to work to educate its-automobils drivers . And that, after all. lies at the bot tom of the whole movement for safety in traffic. It all comes down to the driver.x Regulations, stop- streets, traffic lights, police super vision—all of these things will fall until each individual driver learns to realize the responsibility that rests on his shoulders. Traffic could al- ways^fiove safely if the drivers willed it.—Salisbury Post. No Time To Let Farm Agents Go. The discontinuance of Comity- Farm and Home Demonstration A- g.nits at this time because of coun ty financial difficulties is like with- ( drawing soldiers from the line in time of battle, says FarnTand Ranch a leading Western Agricultural Journal. The paper commends county commissioners and courts for their efforts to reduce the cost of gnveri - Uient but feels that tliev should try j every other available means of cut ting expenses before the decide to try getting along -without their fat 111 and home agents. Thfese men and women have ren dered valuable service in the past Now that we are facing a change In the farm program there is great er need for leadership: With a de crease iu the acreage of cotton and other so called cash crops there will be an increase iu feedstuffs and foods. Feedstuffs can only be mark eted profitably through livestock. Foodstuffs must also be marketed or prepared for home consumption anjl so both county and home de monstration agents, especially train ed for this work, and having at their command the advice auu help of specialists of the State' College of Agriculture will be in a positic n to render a service of a value far in excess of their cost to the taxpay ers.—Ex. " Moving Along Fast. The world today is made up of a mass of people whose chifef aim in life apparently is centered on speed. Everything today is done with an i lea in mind of doing it as quickly as possible. Our everyday life starts in the morning at a high speed, and wecontinue that pace until a late hour. Many people, especially those who have grown older, assert that we are living the pace that kills. In order, however, to keep pace with modern day progress it is necessary to a cer tain degree, that we must speed on,’ or. else drop to the side of the road. Few persons you meet on the streets nowadays, are leisurely going about their work They seem to have something definitely ahead a- head of them, as they go briskly down the street. Few persons driv ing an automobile today would be satisfied to slow down to the pace of “Old Dobbin ” This haste extedds into business, as clerks and customers most usually make rapid bargains and business deals of all. kinds are consumased much more repidly today than f.iney were a few years ago. 1 Our demand for speed is found in all branches of service today. A few. years ago a letter required days to go across our country. Todayonly a matter of hours is needed. Mes sages across the country. Today only a matter of hours is needed. Messagesacross thecountry and be tween continents also have been speeded up, along with travel to meet those those new demands. Even in death, our speed craze s :ems to prevail, as we watch a pass ing funeral cortege blazing the right- of-way in fast driven c »rs toward the final restingplace for some loved one. So after all, in this busy world to day nothing seems to stand in way for rapid progress. It has reached a point, where you must hurry a- Iong with the rest, or else drop t > the side of the road and watch- ti e rest of the world go by.—Ex.

I rememher how mv study of Georgraphy in the gratnmer grade; tar.ght me the location, phvsica! features and mineral deposits 0 01 her lands thus preparing me fo; History. Much that I know concerning lands across the seas I learned through History. It starts with the uncivilized countries bringing them through the stages of feuda listu, crusades and renaissance .up up to the modern civilizations. This study s^ows how nations profited by the mistakes of others in similar circumstances ahd how- political changes aud wars that ap parently affected only a very few races did in reality affect all. - I also became aquainted with the great statesmen, poets, orators and politicians 0 ; the world through the work of historians. A great a mount of the knowledge I have on the civic life of countries came from my ready of the past; for in stance—ths rule of the oligarchs, monarchs and aristocrats, through a progressive era, to the present day democracries. In the study of Science I learned several of the worlds greatest chem ists, ,psychologists, philosophers, astronomers and geologists. From this reading I also found" what mineral deposits and natural .re sources foreigu lauds .have. Language teach the great mini ber of dialects used an\opg aliens Nearlv every book a person reads informs him or her of a far awav place Especially books of travel give information about customs and manners of dress and living. O.ie usually remembers things that are related in story forms much longer than he does “just dry i'scts ” Although Mark Twaius Innocence Abroad” is a humorous book, it impressed upon my mind the fine arts and wonderful arclii tec;ture ot southern Europe aud the love of music in Germauy.' Newspapers and some of the leadiug weekly magazines serve as distributors of foreign news. Books are written on or about only a jew important things that happeu on the different continents, there fore, without newspapers and his torical magazines W2 would know' nothing of the happenings in other lands until years after they occur. Practically everything I know coil-, cerning curreut events in faraway uations I learned through reading daily or weekly magaziues and papers. JANE CROW.

Prohi Law Never To Be Repealed. Asheville. Nov 9—A roru her o' :lie Eighteenth Amendment today said the prohibition law would nev -r be repealed and that it is “one ol the best obeyed laws on our statnle books.” Judge E. Yates Webb, of Shelby, vho aided in drafting the amend ment while a member of Congre.-; from the ninth congressional id is’ trict of North Carolina, said tin 'pposi* ion forces would “never K iiile to muster sufficient strength t( bring about repeal of the constitu tional amendment.” In his charge to the grand jury at the opening of the fall criuunal term of Uuited States district court here, Judge Webb said of the pro hibition law: “Some want it repealed. They talk ahout it. They argue about it. They kuow it will never be lone. With all this agitation—all propaganda for repeal—it is not sufficient to muster the necessarj votes in Congress to submit it to the states for another vote. "Forty five of the 4 8 states rati fied the amendment and it would take 3 6 stales to bring abcut its re peal. We know that is impossible.” Judge Webb, who served in Con gress from 1 9 0 3 io 1 9 1 9 when, he was appointed a United Slates dis- trick judge by President Wilson, prefaced his charge with the re mark that “our wet friends Iell us prohibition has brought a lot of cases to federal court.” “ That is tiue.” lie said, “but hose wets don't iemember as far Iiack as we do.

Critics •f the two party svstein, he savs, lave had no difficulty in showing its lollowness. because no^vital principle Iivides Republicans from Demo crats, These critics make the fatal mistake of thinking politically. The real reason why we have Republi- •ans and D-mocrats to keep our economics Wa must have Republi cans and Democrats to keep our eco nomy si'stem going. We’must have t Democratic threat every four /ears in order that prosperity shall return to save the Republicans.

It would not. Theexistence of the Democratic oarty i • a guarantee that no business depression can possibly last more han three and a half years. Busi ness simp.'y must improve in order that the Democrats may lose the presidential election-. Oa this pofnt in expert scout dispatched by iStiis Jepartmentto look into the tgcy- clope'dia brings back the following report: _ Thepression of 1837 passed off just in time to enable a Whig to beat a D imocrat in 1840. The depression of 1857 passed off in time to elect Abraham Lincoln in 1860 The depression of 1873 had not passed elf sufficiently in 1876 to en- ••ible a Republican to beat a Demo crat. So they threw Tilden out anj -, how. The depression of-1893 lifted j Jst in .time to elect McKinley in 1896. The depression of 1921 passed off, as we have just said, when the Cana dian wheat crop was destroyed .Ly rust and heat just in ti.ne for 1924. By-Products submits that as the reason for bur two party system, with the developed argument that “if we had only Republicans, we might have a dozen years of un broken hard times. As it is, the country can always take comfort in the ihought that it can’t last more than four years. Somewhere the sun is shining and Democratic candi date fs waiting to be stood on bis head ” Wherefore, economically, we must shout a welcome to return of pros perity, but politically, in view of the inopportune time it has a habit of coming back.

A part ot that ev I that has be come most glaring, most brazen., is the habit of placeholders to connect with the payroll of all the members of the family for which they can find a place.

BANKERS DEVELOP NEW FINANCE AID President of American Bankers Association Describes Flan and Services of National Credit Corporation NEtV YORK.—The National Credit Corporation, a billion dollar coopera tive institution, is tlio method worked out by bankers to put into practical effect the central point in President Hoover's plan for renewing the com- mercia’ and industrial activity of the nation as proposed in his statement to the nation of October 7, Harry J. Haas, president of the American Eank- ers Association stated in a recent inter view. The corporation is strictly coopera tive in character, ho said, to unite the entire banking system and increase the 'effectiveness of the financial ser vices of banks to their communities in the rural districts as well as the cities. The plan will marshall the banking re sources of the country, he explained, by creating a national institution whose funds will be loaned when nec essary to banks which have assets in their portfolios that are thoroughly sound but arc net eligible for loans at federal reserve banks. To Benefit Everybody "There is no citizen in the United States but will benefit in very practical ways from the results of the operation of this forward-looking plan of cooper ation, which may "be regarded as one of the most constructive step3 that have been taken toward revival of sound business activity,” Mr. Haas -declared, adding: "The National Credit Corporation represents an instrumentality that should, have far-reaching effect in re storing the confidence of the public. The plan not only has been formulated Dy the country’s leading banking au thorities, but also will bo carried out locally as well as nationally by bank ing representatives who have given their time and thought to this under taking as a rearpublic service. "The American Bankers Association convention was in session at the time the plan was proposed and unanimous ly endorsed it in principle. I have ex amined the detailed formulation of the working plans as developed by the incessant labor? .of some of the Na tion’s leading bankers who have under taken to put it into practical operation In single-minded devotion to the na tional welfare, and I am able to say without reservation that the National Credit Corporation as set up by them constitutes a practical, sound and effi cient means-for carrying out President Hoover's proposal.” Come in today, renew your subscrip tion and receive a 1932 Bium’s Almanac.
