■ IV. The Reality and Fixedness
Life Beyond the Grave (vv. 24-31).
: 1. The Cry for Mercy (v. 24). Dives,
which is the Latin name for "rich
man,” was now willing to claim rela-
.tlonshlp to Abraham. Ho was keenly
'conscious, and the appetites which
.controlled him while on earth were
still with him. Instead of a means
of gratification they were now an In
strument of torture. Part of the tor-
m'ient of hell will be the, cravings of
appetite and lust, with no means of
their gratlUcatlon.
, 2. Abraham’s Reply (v. 28). Thl*
reiJly cast tho matter back upon the
man’s memory. Ho said, “Son, re
member.” Tho lashings of a- guilty
conscience will be most real In hell.
. 8., Their Fixedness (v. 20). Human
destinies are fixed by the choices dur
ing the life. When one passes out of
this life ho enters Into an unchange
able state and condition.
4. God’s Word and the All-Sufflclent
Light (vv. 27-81). Dives now request
ed that Lazarus go on an errand of
mercy to his brethren. Ho regarded
the testimony of a spirit of more
value than the Word of Ood. Jiany
today aro more willing to trust tho
rapplngs of a ghost than tho sure
Word of God. Abraham declared that
God’s Word 18 sufllclent—that those
who reject Moses and the prophets
would not repent though visited by
one who had risen from the dead
The greatest miracles will not atrcct
•the hearts of men who reject the Bible.

winter name for her.
“I’d keep It as a summer name too
for her, as In the summer It would
make me feci so nice and cool to talk
to Snow-Drop and call her by name.
“Of course, dear Santa, If this Isn’t
con-ven-lent, don’t bother, but I do
so hope It will be.
“I have her bed all made for her.
Do you remember, Santa Claus, the
Ilttio white bed you gove me thrbe
years ago?. .My big brother painted It
over for me this fall In case you did
give me Snow-Drop.
“We thought It would be so nice,
Santa, for Siiow-Drop to have n white
bed. Don’t you think so, Santa?
“But don’t bother, Santa, If It Isn’t
all right. You are so good and kind,
Santa, and you have so much to do nnd
It would be Impossible for you to do
everything.

Our grocer’s are almost as good as
yours, but not quite, .Santa. Yours aro
a little better than any oth’er,s.
“Good-night, Santa Clau.s, aad a
merry Xmas!"
Eileen came away from the chimney.
“Tiic night before the night before
■Xnms Is so exciting," slie said again.
"More exciting than any other. I’m sure,
though tomorrow night Is Xmns Eve
i»id that is as exciting as It cun be.
But oh, tonight Is most awfully excit
ing. And I do hope Santa Claus
brings me a rag dolly I can name

“The new building erected at
Cooleemee, Davie county, is pre
sented in the report as a type or
model for interested citizens to
study, -It is very clear that the
chief purpose of a school building
is to provide class-room space for
pupils, and all other parts of a
building are necessarily related
to the classroom.
“Therefore, if one building is
so constructed that only 50 per
cent of the floor space can be us

another dèvoted 75 per cent to
classroom purposes, the cost of
the building per class'term will
be 50 per cent more in the former
than in the latter.
“It is very clear that from 25
to 50 per cent of the cost of ;
building may be saved to the tax
payers when the people under
stand that the floor area may be
so arranged as to provide a larger
per cent of it for classroom uses
rather than to have it cut up into
unnecessary hall'.vays, stairways
and rooms ti'.at cannot be used

No Reason For A Lot of Our Winter
—Our Superstitious Ancestorss—-
Other Thoughts Of The Week
Some one passed Salisbury with
a handful of $20 federal reserve
notes and distributed them among
business men, which was com
mendable, except that the notes
iave proven to be counterfeit.
Seven of the bogus notes have
3een exhibited to Sheriff Krider
by Salisbury and Spencer victims,
who got them from strangers
during Wednesday and Wednes
day night.
In each instance the stranger
would make a small purchase, us
ually from a drug store or filling
station, and tender the $20 bill,
receiving $19 in perfectly good
change. . The latest report was
about lOo’clock Wednesday night
when-Mx.—Yfli’bnrougli,—keeper
of the Yadkin river toll bridge,
got one of the notes from three
men who were going north in an
automobile.
The counterfeit is a federal re
serve note bearing I lie impi'intof
the federal reserve bank of New
York, with the letter and figure
2-B scattered about on the face
of the note, the serial number is
B117371C. The picture of Grover
Cleveland and the printing on
the bill has a blurred appearance,
tlie entire bill booking as though
t had been treated in oil, A dia
sected bill shows that it is com
posed of two sheets of paper past
ed together, and between them
is a layer of lint which shows
through and given the appear
ance of loose threads, such as are
woven into the genuine bills. The
bogus is a fraction shorter than
the genuine bill.
These counterfeits are similar
to one described in a warning
bulletin sent out by the postofflce
department under date of Janu
ary 6. This bulletin also descri
bes a $10 bogus note that is in
circulation.
There is no earthly reason why the gener.'tl health in this
climate should not be as good, or even better, during winter thuii
any other season of the year, yet, we hear of much sickness and
many deaths from respiratory troubles. This is unquestionably
the result of wrong living. We think too much of our personal
comfort, or we go wrong because of fear of that old time honored
story of catching one’s “death of cold.” If we would live out
doors enough to “toughen ourselves,” as the saying goes, we would
then find very little weather in this latitude sufficiently cold to
be really uncomfortable. A fine illustration of this is found in the
rural mail-carrier who goes his round every day, and rarely ever
has the least trouble with colds. A warm room is far more dan-
geous than the open, even tho we may think we have it perfect
ly ventilated. No one ever catches cold by being in the open. Our

It is understood that probablyIt is amusing to study tho various superstitions that have
come down to us as a heritage from the remote ages. In fact, when .
some taint along this line. It is little wonder our grand father.^
were pretty well stocked up with this commodity. Their environ-
ment was such as to foster it, and going back a generation fur
ther, when our iincestry lived in isolation, with all the talei of
Salem witchcraft, along with all the blood-curdling stories of
“hoo-doo” and ghosts that had come with the negroes from th«.-
jungles being used as a household entertainment on the long win
ter evening, we can well see how easily the simple minded child
of the woods grew up with these strange and unreasonable ideas
stamped as truth on his brain. The writer remembers well
few old" ladies of the rural sections who really considered it a
most dreadful form of sacriledge to even dare express any doubt
as to the truth of the most degraded form of superstition. The
fellow who dared do this was a sort of cold blooded unbeliever, or
infidel, untrue to his ancestry, overly wise in his own conceit, and
subjecting himself to the vengence of all the terrible spirits, the
why and the what for of which, they’dared not even question.
But whether or not they are all gone, we can’t say. However,
while we remember them with some amusement, we might also
find some amusement in sounding ourselves and making a test
as to just how deep the taint flows in our own nature.

The example of Greene County, Ohio, referred to in a recent
editorial in the Gastonia Gazette should serve as a source of in
spiration as well as information to the farmers and business men
of this county.
Referring to the dairy busine.ss in this Ohio county, the Gaz
ette says:
Six cream marketing points in this county are handling a
monthly total of 26,000 pounds of butterfat, worth, under pres
ent conditions, $13,000, and are saving the patrons about four
cents per pound, or $1,000 per month.
These six stations are handling approximately forty per cent
of the butterfat sold in the county and have also increased the
price of all butterfat in Greene county about three cents per pound
making a total net saving to patrons and outsiders of-appro-xi-
mately $2,500 per month or $30,000 per year. This reads like a
fairy tale but is an actual statement of what Co-operative cream
marketing.has done for Greene county farmers.

High Point, Jan. 26, —Orders
have been placed here during the’
Southern Furniture - exposition
for approximately $5,000,000
worth of furniture, according to
an estimate made today by a pro
minent furniture manufacturer
who has made a close study of
conditions at the show since it
got under way a week ago last
Monday.
Several manufacturers are re
ported to have sold as many as
200 car loads of furniture duringr
the exposition. Another exhibí-
tor is said to have received orders
for 150 carloads of hiis products,
while numerous orders for 50, 75

fore that time.
More than 130,000 bales of cot
ton have been classed by expert
graders, and it is believed that
the association will get at least
ten thousand bales more before
the season closes. With the ex
ception of the Mississippi long
staple association, this will be the
largest number of bales handled
by any South Stite association
this season.
Checks totaling.$2,756,ООО have
been sent to members for the
second advance of $25 per bale

states the first distribution has

the important subjects to receive
attention.
it is said. \
Of course, it would be impossi
ble to obtain any official figures
concerning the amount of money
involved in the sales made during
the exposition, the manufacturers
being rather reluctant to give
out figures for publication, biit it
is a known fact that they have
transacted more business at the
present show than has been trans
acted at any previous exposition
since completion of the mamoth
lO-story building here.
More than 700 buyers have at
tended the . exposition since it
opened and practically all of them
have made purchases before leav
ing the city. Some of the largest
furniture retail establishments in
the United States have sent buy
ers here to purchase furnitui’e,
and they have bought it in large
quantities.
Fifty-one buyers arrived here
today to attend the exposition,
and that is something unusual,
the attendance during the, last
few days of previous expositions
having been small. Tomorrow,
the last day of the show, also is

furniture will be purchased . be

Just why we should see any
thing of the runt in a man who
• stands for a clean, sober, life, is
one of the unfathomable freaks
of human nature. True he don’t
boast of his deeds, nor his brav
ery. He never finds delight in
troubling others or in terrorizing
the weak and helpless. He may
indurc much and ignore what the
rough-neck means as an insult.

yet, funtjal-bravek'y, give us the
church goer always in preference
to the rowdy.
Strange the fellow who thinks
church going silly and unmanly,
is always ready to trust the
church man wherever a real man
is nesded, and that in preference
to the worst roughneck he knows.
It is a queer idea, anyway,among
our boys, and, too, often among
men of mature age, but it is a
fact. Youth ¡3 inclined to be a
bit -hasty and rash at best, and,
of course, cannot well understand
moderation. Many a boasted free
thinker, who is after all no think
er at all, can not see the man
who is a church goer as any other
than a weakling. But when put
to the test, we all prefer the re
gular church man.
For years we have stood practi
cally still as to our general pro
gress and development. The old
free labor system in road work
has only been abandoned recent
ly. it was more than half a cen-
tury...ol(U-yet it. had not been-TO-
proved on in any way. But our
pillow of fire has moved and in
this, as well as ail other linei, we
have gone forward. We are yet
in the wilderness, but the way to
our land of promise is sure. It
may be in a round-about manner,
along many line?, but success in
the way of full development is
not far ahead. We are just now
waking up along educational
lines, and the next decade will
see a system v.wked out that has
not yet been thought of. Our
agricultural work is reaching out
for greater things and our other
undeveloped resources are being
considered and tried out. Our
pillow 01 fire is moving ahead by
night and our pillow of cloud bs'
day, and we are eagerly follow
ing.
The common plodder may bo
able to plod very well in almost
any line, but the mnn who has
ever accomplished anything real
ly worth while has had his pillow
of cloud by day and his pillow of
fire by night, nor has he mistak
en the meaning when they mov
ed. He has known when the
time came for moving ahead,
-jnoL why, and for what, he has
been waiting, nor ha? he hesitat
ed or turned aside. Perhaps the
world has watched his seeming
failure with amusement Per
haps he has been labeled “Dream
er” and made a joke of by the
man who is as dull as a rusty
plow share, and has no more vi
sion than a ground-mole. But
these things^ while they may
have worried him, have not even
turned his face from the pillow
of fire that he knew would move
sooner or later. We may find
countless illustrations of this.in
history, or we may satisfy our
selves by merely taking note of
the living proof around us. Young
man, keep your eyes on your pil
low of cloud by day and your
pillow of fire by night. Stand
ready when they move, for as
surely as you live they will lead
to wonderful things.

The community was deeply
saddened by the sudden death,
caused by heart failure, of Mrs.
Augusta V. Bessent, widow of
the late Thomas M. Bessent,
which occured about 10 o'clock
on Thursday night, January 18,
1923, at the old home at Jeru
salem, Davie County. Mrs. Bes
sent had been in declining health
for the past four years but had
been as well as usual until about
two week previous to her death,
although she had not been con-
fined to her bed but was up and
interested in her home duties and
visiting in the neighborhood. On
Sunday before her death she had
spent the day with her daughter,
Mrs. George Y. Thomason, near
Salisbury, returning late Sunday
evening. She slept well Sunday
night but had a slight attack
Monday morning from which she
never fully recovered, although
continuing in the home interest
and the coming and going of
friends and relatives who called.
Thursday was an unusually inter
esting day to her in her home
life. The evening being spent
with her family by her friends
with the usual good spirit, joy
and life which was always hers.
Retiring followed almost immed
lately an attack which was thou
ght at first slight, but which re
sulted in death about thirty min
utes later. Before her marriage
April 5, 1892, she was Miss Aug-
gusta V. Douthit, daughter of
George and Nancy Douthit, born
at Clemmonsville, April 13, 1853.
i\lr. G. F. Feezor, of Winston-
Salem, was a week-end visitor,
vivid by three children, Mrs.
George Y. Thomason, R. 1, Salis
bury; Paul Bessent, Salisbury,
and Russell Bessent, who lives at
the old home, and the following
by Mr. Bessent’s first marriage:
T. Byson Bessent and Sirs, Henry
V/alkins of Clemmons, Nannie P.
Bessent, Oxford, Ed Bessent
Salisbury, and Mrs. S. B. Red-
wine of Charlotte. The funeral
was held from the home on Sat
urday, Jan 20. at 3 o’clock, con
ducted by Rev. G. s. Cash well of
Statesville, and Rev. H. T. Penry
pastor of Jerusalem church. The
unusual large attendance, the
entire -community and-relatives
and friends from a distance, and
the floral offerings were living
testimony of what this beautiful
life meant to those who knew
her. In early life she joined the
Methodist Church and always
lived a consistant Christian life.
In the passing of this life this
home and community feel deeply
the sueparable loss.

we hope the .paper cairbe kept
up to its high standard or made
even better if possible,.
,............/•family has its favorite method—onion
poultices, turpentine stupes, mustard
plasters and poultices of various kinds are all good.
How to Produce This Effcct,
.. Our experiments have shown that
an ordinary mustard" plaster is very
effective. Use one part of mustard
to - two" parts of flour or flaxseed
meal for adults, and one to three parts
for children under eight years. An
oven simpler method, particularly for
adults, is to. apply towels, wrung out
in very hot water—as hot as the pa
tient con stand. Whatever method
is used, the application should be ap
plied over tbe throat and chest imtil
the skin is thoroughly reddened. . In
very deep colds, the sides and es-
pecihlljr the back from the middle of
the shoulder blades to a point just
above the waist, should also be treat
ed. For adults, a hot mustard foot
bath—pno table-spoon of. mustard to
a gallon of water—given at this stage
of the treatment, will aid in drawing
tho blood from the con'geste<l parts.
Then MnBsnge With Vicks.
cnri-ying the medicn.tio,n. directly thru
the air passages-to the lungs. ' At
tho same time Vicks ia absorbed thru
and stimulates the skin. ;
Repeat tlie Entire Treatment.
When the vapors begin to lose
their strength, fresh Vicks should be
applied over the parts. This to keep
up the continuous supply of vaiiors.
When the redness of the akin begins
to die out, all the Vicks. remaining
should be wiped off and the entire
treatment repeated,-?;That is, the hnt
wet towels or mustard plasters
should be used until the skin is again
thoroughly reddened, then massage
with Vicica, spread on thickly , anil
cover with hot flannels, just as .‘previously done.
Can Add M ustard To Vicks,
This redness of the skin should
last for two or three hiui’Sj ’but
varies with different patients. Some
skins are much nioro sensitive than
others. This redness can be prolong
ed by mixing a littlo ordinery powder- ■
ed mustard with Vicks—about one
part of mustard to four parts of
Vicks, but this can bo varied accord
ing to 'tJhe iiatient’s |skin. ; Ju st'
enough mustard should be used to
keep up the counter-irritant effect
for two to four hours, so that' the
wet towels or mustard plasters will
not have to be used so frequently as
to prevent the patient from resting.

After the skin is thoroughly red
dened, it should bo dried lightly and
immediately and. the patient should be
given a brisk massage with Vicks
all over the parts. Continue this for
flve minutes. This ' iificreases the
counter-irritant effect. Then apply
Vicks thickly over all the parts; that
is, sp-ead it on like you would a
poultice—about one-sixteenth of an
inch thick or more-^and cover with
two Uiicknesses of hot flannel cloths.
Vicks-Acts Like-a Vapor-Lamp, '
_________ ««IV MAVMvmiijj caaiU i*
In these cases drop a tablespoonful
of Vicks into a kettle ttfi.boiling water
and allow tho patient to inhald‘ the
warm steam and vapors combined for
about 10 minutes. Do this several
times a day if needed; Keep, the
water boiling and put in additional
Vicks whenever the vapors decrease
put a . sheet over the patient and the
tea kettle, making a kind of a tent,
so as to confine the vapors. An
ordinary steam vaporizer is even more
convenient than a tea kettle.
Scanty Applications Useless.
This is a vigorous treatment, but \
to check congestion requires vigorous
measures. Vicks must be used freely
to bo effective. The cost of this
treatment is. insignificant compared
with the results which are frequently obtained.
Does Not Take the'Place of the
Physician,
The advantage of applying Vicks,
thickly over the body is this; Vicks
is so made that the body heat
gradually releases the ingredients in
the form of vapors. ; The more' Vicks
applied, the sti-onger will be thè va
pors and tho longer these vapors will
last.-’ The night clothing should air
ways bo loose, around the neck and the
bed clothes arranged in the' form ol
a, funnel. These vapors being light
er than air rise up from the chest
and, if tho bed clothing is properly
arranged, pass by the, nose and mouth
and are thus inhaled with each breath,,
In all cases a physician should be
called. ' These deep colds are- too
serious and have .too mony compli-
cation^ to rely entirely on any home
medication, Vicks, however, does
not interfere with any treatment that-
the doctor,;may prescribe, In.addi- .,
ition the formula of Vicks is given
on every circular so there is, no; rea
son why any doctor should object, to -
its use, except, the fact th at a ;few.
physicians do not care to’ use &ny- ' thing which is advertised'directly to

thnt I^e .should pnHs through the coun-
try of the Snraarítñns, for He was tho
Savior of nil men. On this occasion
UÒ came In touch with a colony of
ten lepers, ñád Tils healing of them ex
hibits the condition of human nature
and the workings of His divine grace.
I. -Their Awful Affliction (v.'12).' '
, l'hey; were lepers;.-. lieprosy Is a con
tagious disease which rots off the
nicmbèrs of the body and eventuates
Iti death. It may be unnoticed in tho
blood of the person for, years.' It is
of such a foul nhtuie that^thé one
thus nffllcted'Is ca'st but from society.
Tills, segregation. , was in accordance
with,the Mosalcinw^ (Lev. 10:40)'. It
was 'a"'kind - of ^ Naaman quarantine
ineasuro. Leprosy has iilways been
regarded as a tjlie of sin, even nt
tlmèa visited upon ^ peoplè for some
sin. ;• .Examples, the leprosy: of Geliazl
(II Kings 6) ! Miriam (Num. 12) ¡'Uz-
zlah (П Kings 16:6). Sin has cònio into
tlie^world: and' flows from generoition
.tp generation through, the . racial
^tream,' so that' all nro sinners (Rom.
6 :12). 'Xhough sln may be hidden, It
eyentnally breaks out and destroys the
body.' Evidences of this àro seen on
every hand. There Is no need of Bible
proof of Its reality. ?■ '
II. Their Cry for Mercy (v. 13).
Tliey were' Ш great 'rièed. ' No. hu-
шапг help - was available.. They had
som’óhow heard, how^ Jesus had healed
BomV lepers. Where "there is real heal
ing,It Is bound to be noised ubout; This
aroused faith.In them. "Faith cometh
by. hearing,, and hearing by the Word
of;Qod" (liotn, 10:17). As He come
their way.tliey called/or, mercy. It le
the rtìvliege of all'sinners to call
upon jesus Christ forimercy. > Salva
tion from the most awful sins will
surely cóme to all who cry unto Him
in sincerity.’.
ill. Bidden to Go to the Prieeti
l(v.l4). ,• ,
Before the lepers were healed they
were to show ' tliemselves to the
priests, according to the- Mosalc law
(Lev. 14:1-82). .As they went In faith
they'were'heaied. ' While God goes be^
fore In the work of salvation, yét He
demands of. the sinner faith. Faith is
the cause of His action. Activity on
thë sinner’s part is necessary so thnt
God’s grace can flow Into him. Faith

when saved sinners go oft with the
blessing of sulvntlon. as though they
had stolen It. Many take rili they can
get from Clirlst and give nothing in re

are ours throiigh Christ, yet ho'w few
llmnU Him for them. The proportion
o f' those who are ungrateful for the
blessings which Christ brought is per

shows how often we are shaiiicd by
the devotion of those less favored

What Harding’s Policy Gf Isolation
Means According 5to the Testimony i
Of A Leading Republican
INViSTlOATION ORDERED.
The 'resolution to investigate
the condition of the state’s finan
ces, introduced in the senate by
Harris, of Wake, arid Delaney- of
Meckleti burg, immediately folio w-
ing Governor Morrison’s demand
The policy of American isolaMpn which has been pursued by
the Hardjng ridniiriistratidn is daily proving to be more and more
of a complete failure and'as tinié passes not only are leading Demo
crats, crying out warnings against ihis selfish policy but some of
the ,lead|ng Republicans of the country are now openly denouncing
the Harding policy as dangerous to the peace and prosperity of the
world. ' '
A most illuminating statement on this question -was recently
made by Governor Lowden; of Illinois, who cariie very near being
President of the United States instead of Harding. The New York
World in a recent issue in addition to quoting Governor Lowden
has'tVie following to say: ■ - • *
“As Governor of Illinois, Frank 0. Lowden made a record that
put,him in the front rank of Republican Presidential possibilities in;
1920. , He; had once, .more shown a clear-headed business man’s
capàbity for public service by studying Europe’s desperate problen^^
on the spot; His conclusions,, asjstated to the Council on>; Foreign.
Relations, áre worthy of Natio^ examination by all who would
re establish abiding peace in à crazy world. • ,
,Mr. Lowden regrets that Président Harding ordered .home, the
Americari troops from Coblenz^ since their continued presence there
was desired ardently by-Gerfnarisjias by the Entente., Their with
drawal,: he thinks, like;éverÿ step; token to dissociate us from “ en
tangling alliances’’ abroad, isimpli^'heightens despair in Eurpp.e
without freeing us froni ties of comnion iotsrest that have always
existed, that now and that will co^inue to exist, binding us in in
terestas in sympathy with Old-World humanity; - v
' Upon thát’póirit a fornier Governor of Illinois can speak for the
Middle 'West. 'The ‘‘price of isólatibn,”-he‘says,-would,be .‘‘the
reversión of 30"per cent of bur wKéat fields and 20 per cent of/ our
corn fields back to. thé native'prairie land,’’ and’50 per cent of; our
cottbh acires back to forest.' We must revolutionize industry . and
coriimerce‘'if we would regain that isolation that we long ago lost.
Are you willing to pay the price?’.’ : ‘ .
Gov. Lowiieri shares the prevailing American doubts whether
Prance win get anything worth! \vhile by the occupation of the
:Rjijhr,^but:.he^thipks,^ as do mânj^lôàdingi RepublicanBr^thatmuclv

Státés-' had taken a more direct interest in the question of repara
tions and other fateful decisions, Arid he asks.aquestion that goes
to thé heart of the matter.- '‘Weren’t we jnterested in whetheç-
thvi Gerriián’Répühlic^shoüld'endure or the military party come
back? To ask that question is ib’answer it.
There was á time when, under Republican President, our Gov-
ernment had the 'vision to see its responsibilities abroad and the
courage to act;úp^pn what it saw. John Hay’s name is Hóked \vith
the pblicy. and principle of the open door in China; Theodore’RooseT
velt’s with the Algeciras Conference, where war between ¡France
arid Gerriiàny, Mr. Lowden reminds us, was possibly . áverted with
our aid. ’Probleriis more vast and-more vital press Upon us now

Mocksviile, N. C. Feb. 8, 1923.
, If commissioner Maxwell can
hot establish the tmthfulness of
his statement that there is a fin
ancial deficit of five million dol
lars in our state treasury, then
he has done his state a grave in
justice by making the charge.
; We wovild suggest to the newly
organized chamber of commerce
that .it might make a finé start
by getting in behind a movement
■ for electric lights. This is sorely
needed ,ahd should have the at
tention of the citizens and board
of aldermen at once. Lets have
' electric street lights.
This town'Ms large enough to
support a moving picture show.
The trouble Is that a suitable
building would be hard to get
now. Why not some of our pro
perty owners build a regular
moving picture theatre building.
Such a building would certainly
never stand vacant for lack of a
: renter. When once more a mov
ing picture shall be opened up
here we shall never again see
that time when Mocksviile will

something. Whai do you say.
' A man said to us thé other day,
."There is money enough in this
town, and invested by Mocksviile
men in other towns, with which
to build a large cotton mill. If we
only had it invested in such an
enterprise it v.’ould bo helping to
build up Mocksviile.” This is a
thought that should be pondered
over by our local men of means.
Why not invest our money in
home industries, and thereby not
only realize a good return upon
our capital, but in addition there
to, realize a'still greater finan
cial advantage by increasing real
estate values in Mocksviile.
Our community was greatly
shocked at the sudden death^of
Mrs. Rqbena Etchison Hunter,
which oecured Tuesday morning
Jan. 30, about 10:30 o’clock. She
was as well and cheerful as usual
until late Monday evening, when
she was stricken with paralysis
and was unconcious until the
end. She was born Dec. 4,1860,
age 62 years 1 month and 26 day.».
When a young woman she was
married t9 Mr. S. C. Hunter,
who proceeded her to the Glory
World a little more than two
years ago. To this union were
born ten children, eight of whom
survive her, six sons and two
daughters, as follow: Messrs.
Hanks, Baker, Cad, Raid, Wes
ley and Homer Hunter, Мез
dames Flora Latham and Kate
Wright. In early girlhood she
was converted and joined the
church and has lived a cons;crat-
ed Christian life. This good wo
man was full of good work, and
was loved and respected by al
who knew her. She was always
ready and willing to lend a help
ing hand in time of need ..
trouble. Although, she has gone
out of bur sight and cannot come
back to us, but we can go to her,
it was God’s will th^t she should
be taken, not otirs, and we know
not at what time we shall be cal
ed, too, so let us live to niieet in
the world beyond, when peace
and joy shall dwell, forever,
where no sorrows will ever be
and we shall liever part sgain.
Her body was gently laid to rest
in Eaton’s cemetery, Thursday
Feb. 1st, at 11 o’clock in the pre
sence of a large un(^ sympathetic
audience. The funeral service
was conducted by Rev. V. M,
Swaim, of Winston-Salem. To
the relatives and friends ‘we ex
tend sympathy and may the.com
forter soothe the sorrowing
hearts of those who weep. Ben
est it'is well.
Sure, the ground hog saw his
shadow and it looks now as if we
might have forty days of bad
weather.
SPEAKING OF CANDIES
We take pleasure in telling our customers
of our candy business. We have, at all
times a fresh assortment of box candies.
And we are getting more and more busi
ness in our loose candies, because our cus
tomers have learned it is always fresh and
of the best quality.

We regard the organization of
the Mocksviile chamber of com
merce last week as the most im
portant thing which has happen
ed at Mocksviile in a long time.
The organization starts out strong
with 78 charter members, and we
hear that several others have al
ready indicated their intentions
to join at once. This means that
Mocksviile has started on the
' forward march. If our new
. chamber of commerce functions
/ isis it should, we may cxpect some
definite action towards the pro
moting of a new cotton mill at
an early date. The people of
Mocksviile want a new cotton
mill, they know what a large pay
roll would mean to our town’s
growth, and the money is |iere,
beyond doubt. Working
company in the past has be^p no
one’s special business, .but' now
that we have a chamber of com
merce we may expect to see it
the business of that organization
to promote a new mill. We may
also expect 'to see something
started soon to get a street pav
ing campaign under way.

Rev. Kennerly certainly preach
ed an excellent sermon on Sun
day night, Feb, 4, his lesson was
taken from the lesson given in
Jeremiah 18-1 to 7. He made his
sermon so plain and simple that
even the children could under
stand,—how that we are as the
clay in the hands of the potter,
and that it is largely with each
one of us, whether we are finish
ed a vessel to honor or dishonor
by God the great Maker. All
who missed hearing the sermon,
failed to get some mighty good
advice and teaching. We are
very much pleased with Bro.
Kennerly, and the manner in
which he delivers his sermons,
and hope he can continue with us
as lcng as possible.
Why could not the plan of Miss
Richards, teacher in Mocksviile
high school, be followed by more

have some way to remind pupils

We do not know Miss Richards

serves much credit, and should
certainly be highly appreciated
by those children to whom she is
making a special effort to teach
the proper use ot English,

Public Welfare Week
For Davie County
February 11th to 18th is the
time, but it is between now and
then we want you to think • with
us about our first great command
viz: . Witness for me in Jeru- ■
salem,' That home we are talking
about Davie County. Out of
what will the citizenship of Davie
County be constituted fifty,years
hence, Certainly out of her child
ren now. What is your relation
ship to the childrsn of tuday? Is
it not true that you and I and
every nature man and woman is
a trellis on which the youth must
clinch into a develoyed mind.
These and other things we want
you to thing about and on Feb,
11th to the 18th we want you to
contribute to a fund to be known
as the Davie County Charity
Fund, There is quite a number
of children in Davie county suf
fering from physical handicaps
that is materially retarding their
progress in school. That with a
little meaical attention now would
relieve them and send them out
in life with an equal chance. Un
less we help they can't have.
Will we do it? Am I my brother’s
keeper?

him tliere wns to be no more food next
summer.’
“Not becnuse Mr. Woodchuck would
not bo Interested In food, but because
Mr. Woodchuck wouldn’t renlly bo
listening to mo. He would bo so sleepy
thnt ho wouldn't know what I wns sny-
liiR—tlmt Is If somo one dug up tho
ground about his hole nnd brought
him out
"Ho would sleep right on, nnd the
most ono could possibly get out of blm
would be n gruiit
'Then thero Is Mr. Chipmunk who
Is a sleeper, too. Mr. Bear and the
n«nr children and mothers nil sleep In-
tho winter. Many, many of tho anl-
mnls do. Of course Mr. Frog does nnd
so docs Mr. Tond nnd so do the Snnke
fnmllles.
“But thero are others who como out.
Mr. Shrew comes nbove tho ground
often for n menl. The Shrew some
times has n nice little mpuse dinner.
“Mr. Fox Is out nil tlie time nnd
Jlr. Rabbit doesn’t care nbout sleep
ing.
"1 played n good Joke on Mr. Fox
the other day. Ho thought ho wns
going to get the better of me, but I got
tho better of him with my protection—
not a plensnnt kind of protection, you
may say, but a very good one, never
theless.
“Of course I Co not sleep all win
ter but during tho very cold months
I go tp take a rest. I do not put my
self In tho class, though, with the win
ter sleepers, for many and many n
time one cnn see me out over thfc
snow.
“Two can see mo If two nro looking
nnil the same would bo true of three
or four nnd so on.
“I did say, to be sure, that a night’s
sleep wns all right, or a daytime rest,
but I think every ono should have a
little holiday during tlie.yenr.
“Most creatures would rather have
It In the summer. Thnt Is, girls nnd
boys would rnther have it then. Tbdy
rest from studying at stfch a time.
“Anlmnls enjoy a winter rest, but I
_don’tjvnnt_n_wholfijvintec-ior-slccp-
Ing or a whole suminer for resting.
“I like to take a rest during the
very coldest month or two.
.."Then I am willing enough to tnke
a sleep, nnd a rest. Tho very, very,
very cold weather ia too much. . So
quite often i take a two months’ rest
nnd sleep.
"Then I do not feel the very severe
cold of the hardest pnrt of the winter.
“Mr. Weasel doesn’t mind tho win
ter. He Is a terrible follow. He cnii
frighten crenturea nnd ho can kill
Uiem, too. He Is fenred by the ani
mals, and no wonder 1
“He changes his costumes, too. 'He
wears gray at times and hé also has a
red summer coat of which ho is very
proud.
“But dear me, denr me' now thnt I

be very cold, too.
“I fool It is high time I had my

[ATE IS AHEAD
IN fARM TEACHING
lere Is only one State Hold-
¡in g Higher Rank, Says
R o y H. Thomas
n the South, North Carolina is
ahead in agricultural educa-
in and in Union only one State
idiana holds a higher rank, , ac-
irding to Roy H. Thomas, State
pervisor of agricultural educa-
n, in an article he has prepared
r a national publication.
The work of North Carolina
ricaltural high schools in help-
g the persons not in school has
taracted national attention,” it
started. "Every state in the
nion does this type of work but
ily one, Indiana, had a larger
roliment. In the south. North
roliria stands way ahead, hav
_ more than twice as many per
ms enrolled as any other state.”
The article tells how over two
lousand farmers stopped their
irk long enough last winter to
Itend short courses at their res
istive agricultural schools for
!e purpose of learning better
_lthods of’farming. After the
^irses were completed, the of-
„Jial continues, the planters re-
jp ’ned home and put into practice
;fi^e mothods they had learned.
,ch farm er kept an accurate
jcord of his crppi animalsitiand
ler to determine whether he
lad&or lost money.
The Salerhburg high school, of
mpaon county, arid the Sea-
ard high school, of Northanp-
>n county, are cited as examples
how Euch institutions are help-
g thfe farmers adjust their farm
g to boll weevil conditions.
‘‘The farnaers of the Salem-
urg community, through the sur-
irviaion of the teaching i)f agri-
ilture, bought a new variety of
itton, purchsaed fertilizers co-
eratively and ‘home-mixed’
lem at a net saving of $6.000.

ividually ; .selected theirseed cot-
n in the field last fall, and they
low have 3000 bushels of selecte
jure improved cotton seed to be
led in the comniunity this. year
is stated. • • .
“They fòiind put that every
ur spent in selecting their seed
as worth five dollars. As a re-
It of theónformation gained by
ttending the boll weev il course
I t the school, and putting it into
practice, tfte farhiers'made about
118 more per acre on their cotton.
The Seaboard farmers used an
ther method of attack on the
11 weevil. -They went into the
looperative marketing of hogs.
“Now, this group of farmers
larket aboiit, four carloads of
|ioga each year. As a result of
e course at the school they'are
nabied to - turn an unforfitab'.e
ndustry into à profitable one.
“Before the course was given,
hese farmers co^uld' sell only a
'ew' hogs usally;as dre^^^^^^ pork,
he market was very limited,
ow, they sell on foot in carload,
lots and receive more than they
t for drc'.sed pork locally. ..
“One farmer on c'omm(?hting

ther school in the state said;
^‘what I havd learned will enable

•ear.” :
CARING FOR THE SOIL
IS BIG FARM PROBLEM
C. B. Williams, Dean of North
Carolina State College, Im
presses Importance Of
The Soil.
The greatest problem of most
North Carolina farmers, as well
as planters throughout the South,
in combatting the boll weevil is
that of building up the producti
vity of the soil by economic means
according to C. B. Williams,dean
of North Carolina State Collpge,
last week.
“One can hardly conceive of a
big agricult jral nation like ours, ”
he said, ‘ ‘prospering in a perman
ent way upon its own resources
if its soils are not being kept up
to at least moderately productive
condition.
"It is hardly thought that his
tory will show that a single large
nation of the past has fallen
where its people were moral and
industrious, its rulers kept close
to God, and where its people have
handled their soils properly and
maintained them in a productive
state.
• “In a letter received some time
ago from a Mississippi man,own-
er of what is said to be the larg
est cotton plantation in the world,
he stated, after his wide experi
ence. “It is hardl;/necessary to
add that rich land is the big^fac-
tor in making cotibn with or
without boll weevil, and it is ne
cessary with the weevil."-
“It is only by high yields that
the most economic production o f
cotton or any other crop can be
secured. Goodly prices and pro
fits, will then usually follow, if
the total production as a nation
is kept down to or below the
normal demand for consumption,
and the crops are put on the
market in an orderly any proper
way.”
Mr. Williams stated that fair
and large yields of cotton could
be obtained through the “adjust
ment of methods of growth so
that the-number of boll weevils
surviving the winter is small and
that the land improvement and
preparation, planting, varieties
used, fertilization and cultivation
shall be such as to make the crop
fruit early.

The Good Old Days
Once there was a time when
brotherly love was known, when
a spirit of fairness was in evid-;
ence, when a willingness to live
and let live prevailed.
But, that was yesterday, and
yesterday is forever of the past.
We dream of the days that
were, but make no effort to res
tore them to the time that is.
We pity the anients because of
the many things that they did
not possess, and the Lord judges
us because of the many things
lhat we reject. v
It is life, as we make it, and
for which we must pay.—Caroli
na Banner.
Are We Doing Things Different— Let^s
Get In The March And Win, Rather
Than Drag And Fail.
As we look deeper into the matter we become more arid more
aware of the imperfection of our language and manner of writing
it. Correct opinion gets it that a'hundred letters on a printed
page contains an average of twelve useless or silent letters, and
that these useless letters cost the reading public $37,500,000 every
year. But for air this cost in dollars, the worst is in waste of
time, and the confusion. This is an age of speed.- We are far too
busy to be wasting time in this way. Infact, printing and reading
print are far too slow to be in keeping with our other modernized
methods of doing things. To keep, pace with other methods of
doing things, we should have our writing boiled down to a fraction
of what it really is. Why go along burdened with a twelve per
cent of surplus when the load is far too burdensome at best? We
can replace old ideas with new and better ones in every other
line, so why cling to the old method in this line? Our language
and manner of writing it, have, of course, changed. However, this
change has been slow with thé ages and should continue to change
whichj it will do; but what we want is a little speed along this
line to be in'keeping with other progress, otherwise printing may
in time become too burdensome and irksome to fiU. the place it
should. In fact, reading is already being replac'Si with moving
picture films and cartoons as a means of educating. Perhaps
the slow burdensome method of our grandfathers might as easily
be replaced here as in other lines.
Speaking of progress in language and writing, of course,
this is not as practical as some other things we might discuss,
for just at this, time Davie County needs to consider progress
along other lines. For instance, there are yet those who follow
the old method of farming.: There are a great number who yet
use old antiquated, farm machinery. This is entirely a waste and
should be gotten away from by oui* farmers. Taken as a whole,
there are very few sections of N,orth Carolina where the farm
ing lands are better fitted for the.’twe of modern farm machinery
than oiir county. A large per ceri^bf our farms are reasonably
level. Why not decide to quit the ,bidimethod of cultivating the

cultivate it better than half a dozen can by the use of "the old
methods of plow and hoe.

Think Right, Or Don’t
Think.
Some people spend a lot of
time in bemoaning their faith aud
bedamning their luck
The same amount of time and
energy, if spent iti some useful
pursuitor in: endeavoring to lo
cate a profitable - occupation,
would preclude even the pjssibil-
ityof even thinking of luck or
fate.
"^T.iiihk of the right side of llfe-
№ don’t think. - Carolina Banner.
A man said to us the other day, “We are doing things in
x-apid fire order. With good roads, rural free delivery mail serv
ice, automobiles, telephones and consolidated schools, we are mov
ing things along with a hustle.” This gentleman went on to say
that he frequently disagreed with some of the modem- methods
“but”, said he, “a fellow may as well get on the band wagon and
remember that conditions have changed during the past ton
years.” This gentleman referred to a man who used to run a
prosperous livery and feed business. He said that this man told
him a few d a y s a g o that his business was rotten. „ "I told h^^^
said this gentleman, “that he was in the wrong pew;, that modern
progress had moved away from him, that he was trying to stand
still.” “Get out of the rut,” I told him, get on the band wagon and
move with the sweep of modern progress.
Really it is remarkable what wonderful changes have taken
place during the past decade. Practically everything has changed
and there are very few things that we can dp in the old way. The
w ise man will gird up his loins and keep pace with the times.
As a result he will prosper. The non-progressive will attempt to
go-along in the old-fashioned way, and will either make a failure
out-right, or fail to get anywhere at best. Lets get in tlw swing
voluntarily and not wait until ^ye shall be forced in by the tre
mendous sweep of modern progress.

Holding her close to him, he
gazed into the unfathomable
depths of her hazel-like eyes.
Acute anxiety was expressed in
every line of her fair face, Ever
and anon, a sign seemed to rend
her beinf .with its intensity, and
she gazed into his face as if she
would read his very soul.
For many minutes they thus
sat, neither speaking, each gazing
into the other’s eyes.
“Yes” said the oculist, at last
“one eye is seriously aifected,

-^Science and Invention,
If a man goos to a friend to bor
row $1000 and the frietid answers
“I have not the money on. hand,
but I will get it at the bank and
lend it to you, and charge you
just what interest the bank char
ges me,” the borrower would ap
preciate the favor. The bank,
being liberal to a good customer,
lends the $100,0 at 41-4 per cent,
and the same is loaned to the or
iginal applicant. It has cost the,
man who got it from the bank:
$42.60 a year to pay the interest,
but the friend ifails to pay any in
terest until he is pressed for it.;
Then he complains that the rate
is too high; he bags to be allow
ed to settle the interest at only 3
per cent. He pays his friend $30
and the good natured, accommo
dating friend loses the difference
John Bull is the man in need.
He wanted $4,000,000,000 and
came to Samuel to borrow it
Samuel wanted to accommodate
John, but he did not have so much
loose cash, so he went to his
“banker,” the American public.
The “banker” let Samuel have
the $4,000,000,000, but charged
him 4 i-4 interest—Liberty bonds.
When John was asked to pay the
interest, if not the principal, he
begged—he coaxed, he whined
that he never ought to be charg
ed such high interest. So Samuel
agreed to accept 3 per cent and
pocket the loss himself. Why,
nobody knows, but it makes John
so ashamed of himself that he
goes out on the “street” and
calls Samuel a pawnbroker, a hay
seed, a money shark.
The interest difference which
Samuel loses on the accommoda
tion of his friend is $60,000,000 a
year. In ten years, it amounts
to a tidy sum—over half a billion
dollars.
The determination reached ■ by
Senator Simmons-annoiinced at
Washington Inst Wednesday ,by
Senator Overman, ;to withdraw
his name from consideration for
Democratic leader of -the Senate
was learned of with deep regret
by his friends in the Senate and
outside the Senate. And this re
gret was heightened by, the fact
that Senator Simmons reached
his determination because of, the.
state of his healthy for, he has
been ill with an attack of ‘‘flu”
for some time, his physicians tall
ing him that he must be careful
of his health for months, and
that taking on, new iburdena
would be most inadvisable. And
that his desire for a . continuance
of party harmony also adds to hia
determination to withdraw is in
accprd with,his political career.

Senator Simmons’ withdrawal :
means that Senator Joseph-T.
Robinson, of Arkansas^'will be
elected by the Democrats' of- the
next Congress as thé successor of
Senator Underwood, who -h&s
given notice that he: would resign .
the position. As far as the coii- •
test between Senatbr Simmons

pledged to vote for him and 14

hinged upon the Votes of the ten

Senator Simmons, to win, needed
but four of the ten, while Senator
Robinson needed eight.

Everything Points to the Greatest Spring Demand for
Ford Products in Company^s History
l,202,5n Ford Cars and Trucks were delivered to retail purchasers
in the United States alone during 1922-
Actual deliveries for last month greatly exceeded any previous Dec
ember in the history of the Ford Motor Company—
It was the ninth consecutive month in which more than 100,000
Ford Cars and Trucks were retailed—keeping the Ford Plants
working at capacity to meet dealers’ requirements—
In many, parts of the country dealers are already finding it necces-
sary to specify later delivery dates on certain types because there
are no reserve stocks to draw from—
Commercial users, business houses and farmers, anticipating their
future requirements,are placing orders and taking delivery of Ford
Cars,Trucks and Fordson Tractors to insure against delay—
Everything points to the biggest shortage of Ford Products this
Spring that has ever existed—
The only way you can be sure of obtaining delivery of a Ford Car,
Truck or Fordson Tractor is to list your order immediately—
We have given you these facts as they actually exist so that if you
are planning to purchase a Ford Car, Truck or Tractor for use
this Spring or Summer, you can list your order now and take ad-
Vantiage of our dealer’s first opportunity to make delivery.

I, Jesua Passing Through Jericho
(V, 1),
Jericho Is noted us the stronghold
of tho CiiDnoultes, which was inlrucu-
lously delivered Into the Imnds of
Israel In response to their faith (Josh.
0), and nlso for Uio iulth of Halmb,
which saved her' from destruction
with tho city (Heb, 11:30, 31),
II, Zacchaeus Seeking Jesus (vv. 2-4),
1. His Object (v. 3), He sought to
see who Jesus wns. Though perhaps
prompted by curiosity he eagerly
sought Jesus. Ho doubtless Imd heard
of Jesus' kind treatment of publlcuns,
so was prompted to seew liat kind of
a man He was,
2. His DlfllcuUles (w , 2, 3). (1)
His Infamous business (v. 2), Ho was
a tax collector of tho Itoman govern
ment, The very fact that a Jew held
such an ofllco under the hated Horanns
would make him extremely unpopular.
Then slncQ he was rich it was evident
that ho hnd practiced extortion In col
lecting thè taxes. (2) Hla shortness
of stature (v. 8). Ho was too small to
crowd his way tlirougli to jes’us, and
being hated by the people they thrust
him aside, no doubt with taunts nnd
Jeers. (3) His persistence (v, 4), Ho
tan before tho multitude and.cUmbed
up Info a tree. What he lacked In
statiire he was determined should be
made up by the height ot the tree. Ob
stacles placed before him he brushed'
aside and those he could not brush
aside he climbed over, because he had
set his heart upon the goal. Though
Zacchaoua’ legs were too short to en-',
able him to see Jesus they were long,
enough to run past tho crowd and en-'
able him to climb tho tree. It wna
somewhat undlgnlHed for thla rich
man to jcllnib the tree, but hjs soul
was BO (icslrous“ to see ' Josus Tlliit he
cast Ills pride to tho wlude. .
Ill, Jesus Finding Zacehaeue (vv,6, 0),
While Zacchaeus was trying to see
Jesus, Jostis was looklnu tor him. This
Is always the case. M'hen Jesua saw
him ho comnmncled him to come down
from, the tree and declared his Inten
tion to go lioino with him. Zacchaeus
got more than ho oxptíctcd, Jesus did
not utter a word which would liiinilll. ,
ate ZHCclmeus. Jesus knew his heart's ¿N U IN C
desire nnd dealt accordingly with j j | l | |
All souls who earnestly seek •T esusJJ|||^|^ shall be found of Him. How
ful His grace, that r«gardl«ss of one’s ” ” '* " "
past life, that .Tcsus will rccelve hlmOBACCO
as a friend and enter Into fellowship;_________
with him. Zacchneus quickly respond-.
ed. He came down and with joy ro-WS celvod Jesus. 1
IV. Zacchaeus* Conversion (w,jjjg
Ills conversion wna sudden nnd and
thorough. He was converted befoio ] Jiitn fo r the ho hnd reached tlio ground. It does
not take.,Tesus long to save n soul. a, , . ,
1, AVhnt tho Crowd Said (v, 7).^*®“ " ’S ap-
They said Just what they say todiiyunday ITlorn-
when sinners como to Christ. TJicy q£ gg m uch
called to mind the man’s former sins. i
They nlso reproached Christ, saying weacn-
thnt ho hnd come to bo n guest of this IffiRiall crOWd
notorious extortioner, tho tn’s colloe- ^ n n erly will
tor. His supreme mission was to save •_!,(. ei-u
sinners (v. 10). Jesus came not (o | “ •8“ ''»
condemn us, but to save us; not lo lw eath er will
shame and destroy us, but to siiveft larg e crOwd from sin and reconcile us to Ood ou-*
Father. 1 . ' « •
2. What Zacchneus Said (v. 8). H ls|ing w ho IS
conversion was thorough. It took hold^ns spent the
upon hla heart. Ills new life was b(f-_ qoiam
gun with resolution and restlhitioiF'**“ “*®“ *’
He dedicated the halt of his goods t<li o£ K annapo-
tho poor. His conversion got hold OK.gnd with his his pocketbook. HI* dcte;:mlnatIon tnUyii
make restitution wherein ho ‘hadr *
wrongly cxacted taxes shows thefa* Cas£s Of|
genuineness of his conversion. While pur Communi- j
God forgets tho past of a sinner when L ;.,,,
he comes to Christ, the sinner who Is
converted will seek to make right all
wrongs, be they nnklnd words or un
righteous deeds.
3. Whut Jesus Said (vv. 0,10). "To- , . . . -

Oh last Saturday Feb 10th tha
body of iwr. James M Perry was
brought here for burial from his
home near Winston-Salem. He
was in his 76th year. A great
many people of our community
will remember him as he was
bom ^nd lived hère until he was
a middle aged man, he has somej
relatives living in this commnn-
Ity, and many friends here and I the great needs of CO opsrating.elsewhere.
• The weather seems to-be very
changeable, surely'all were glad
■ to have the bright sunshine ' last
Sunday, but the cold days may
mean . moré for us than we real-
- ize now. Had it continued so
warm ab it was in December, no
doubt the peach trees would have
been almost in bIborn, and that
would' possibly have meant no'
peaches, as it is, we hope to be
blést with another good fruit
year.
The Epworth League gave a-
„póther good program Sunday
night. Testimonies from severa
..' were given, such meétings are a
great blessing to thè ones who
can speak a few words for their
Master, and \ye hope some one
who didn’t feel that the could
testify may be strengthened and
be able to do so when another op
portunity comes.
The Ladies Aid Society met
with Mra. C. C. Williams on last
Thursday evening.
We hear and read of so much
building being planned for the
coming spring and summer in
nearby towns. Can't some one
get a visión, of what Farmington
■'needs? And act. ' A village can
be no larger, nor better than the
people make it. Hasn't ours
room for much improvement In
both? “United we stand, divid

A. letter on the importance of the
association was read by Miss
Harp and Lonnie Driver. Mr.
Swain then took the floor and
made a most powerful appeal for
the association.
Then, next, oh my, wh"t a ta
ble was spread, well, for one to
appreciate it, you would have had
to be there. T.ilk about good
things to eai like chiirken, ham,
pork. ribs, pickles, pies and a
dozen other things with 26 flne
cikes, now talk about eating, it
[sure toik place.
In the afternoon very appro
priate son.srs and recitations
were given by young ladies and
young men, after which several
talks were made by Messrs Cain,
Htndricks, Holleman and others
Then Mr. Swain took the floor a-
gain and went into the details of
the association pointing out the
rules which should be observi.d
to obtain the best results from
the association. . Mr. Swain is a
maaterrpiece and has his whole
heirt in the movement. The
great iiiterest these men are tak
ing assures them of success.
The farmers are waking up to
the facts and they see in the neir
future the tidal wave which will
bring^ to them the things which
rightfully belongs to them. The
honest men of all occupations
want justice to regain supreme
to all. So stick together like men
and you will win, Mr. Farmer.

SHEEP IS URGED
Good'^pportunUy For Sheep
Raising ein Farms of
This Country
“Sheep*are not à get-rich-quick
proposition by any meatis, bût
the farmers who.'keep a moderate
sjze flock of themyeàr after year,;
treat them Tight, and keep im
proving the quality by selected
ranis, find them ' a gond cash
crop,” says Dennis A. Merriman
,òf the America:n.Steel and Wixe
Company, according to the Na
tional Crop Improvement Service.
"Some sections specialize ip ;fur-
nishing lamb and; mutton,' and
others on wool, but the general
farmer usually finds a type pro-
diicin’g a good medium wool, and
acceptable lanib and miittun, a
more practical and pi ofltable pro -
position.' ' ‘ _ '
“The- aheep can utilize the
rougher portions of the'farna to
good advantage, : thò, of course,’
they need other feed to^makë the
best gains. The lamb: crop brings
in ready cash, and the culling of
the older sheep each year will add
to the income, while each y ear
the flock’ improves in quality and
profit. . f
“Sheep do.tipt re(yiire expen
sive buildings,^ but should be
kept from reaming oyer cultivat
ed fields. They,grin'd their own
feed, and when their simple but
definite heads are satisfied, they
pay their way vvith a good mar-
gin^for their keeper. .

of the reasons why this claini is

the following:
L . Because, 'when you were
born, it was the home paper that
introduced you to the world,
2. ‘;When you grew up arid
graduated the home paper ggve
you another writeup,'
3. When later on you found
your life companion and were
happily married the home paper
gave you and yours a nice notice,
4. When sickness and misfor
tune invaded your home, the sad
news was carried to your friends
and^neighbors by the home paper.

. Yes I hear the sneer of the
dealer, who boasts that he never
ca*ers to the trade of any but the
“exclusiye class'*, that.he is not
at all cPhcerried iiii - the price of
onions and wheat-but he is.
Perhaps just when he. thinks he
has established a prosperous
trade with the ultra rich, there
is a bumper crop; Somfe people do
not .understand why a bumper
crop is.so named. ' Thfey think it
means a wave of plenty and
prosperity when for both farmer
and merchant it may mean that
both will ‘ ‘gp bump. ”
The Department of Agriculture
has prepared a chart—one of
loss plats of carvco and angles
which wiggle in most amazing
demonstrations of indisputable
statistics, and prove that the dia
mond merehant can’t [sell coro
nets -of Kohindors at a million
dollay^ pach if the farmer is: get
ting less than cost for raising
hay. The farmer, looks over^v.his
field of goldeo grain, and in classic
phrase exclaims, “These, are niy
jewels,” and when he finds trade
slack in his “jewelry store’V he
may know that it is reflected .by
slack business on Fifth Avenue,
One-third of the clothing, the
pianos, rugsi automobiles and rha
chinery is bought by farmers,^
They may nbt be.buying - jewelry
directly from New York “exclur
sives,” but if they shorten their
purchases on Main street- the
Main street dealers .goes put of
business and he ceases to send
orders to the jobbers, and the
jobbers cease to send orders to
manufacturers;;the factoris close,
the idle wage^earners economize
and go hungry and their patroh-
ase of clothing and groceries is
shortened. Bankruptcy of the
“exclnsive” follows the progress
of the boll weevil and the potato
bug, or the slump in the market
demand for the bumper crops.
: All this ia familiar theory to
niost; observers, biit now the De

Tlitre are many reasons whjje members of the B, Y, P.

girls and boys would not have t'
walk two or three miles throug
rain, snow and mud to school ; iri'
stead, nice comfortable trucks
would come right by ourdoorsjor
near us and take us to school on
tinie. Then the attendance would
be incréased. Going to school
would be aspleasure then instéàd
of a burden.
There" are also a better staff of
teachers in a consolidated school,
Hence they can. give more time
to their pupils. This would make
it possible for the farmers to give
their ichildren a high school edu
cation and still have them at
home every night.; In the past,
farmers have had to bpard their
children at ah emense cost and
pay tution in order to educate
them; Why not - stop eùch by
consolidating?
Poor country schools are a woe
ful extravagance. but little ins
piration is gained ill our còmmon
country sehcols, for the Studies
arp neither interesting nor prac
tical. So. many of our teachers
in the rural schools are just nothr
ing but little young sporters and
have no true aim in-teaching the
children. ' Let’s get together and
all pull for better schoóls. '
