Coiinly, '.vhi.'el wasdrivingt'lun”
one Sund ly al t'frnoon, I saw' a

place in Davie Conntv, that a

hours. For several rdghcs, but
listen, some Federal Officers
came along one night and I sup
pose did same searching and I
guess they took thelightas it has
not been seen since. Now what
did the light ni-a:)? It was not a
thing but a sign of bootlegging
soni'jwhero near. If a bootlegger
is caught and put in jail, he some
times has high as twenty visitors
during one d.iy. Does he have all
of these visitors while at home'?

Now any first or second class
fool would know that every man
that says he ii boking for pigs,
is not'looking for pigs but is look

Automobi'e drivers, .actually,
it has beclme unsafe to drive a
team on our main highways. The spseders f!y by a taam and often
frighten it and never make any
halt whatever. Many of them
drive at a speed ranging any
where from 35 to GO miles per
hour. Is such driving safe? Liqu
or and gas naver have worked to
gether and never will.
Why honestly pe jph, the time
has come when there has to be a
■‘Ball Game” to tin off” every
thing. If we have a “Childrens
Day".at some church, the thing
has to be “tipped off” with a
“Ball Game” in the afternoon.
Nearly all picnics must be wound
up with a” Ball Game” wonder
how long' it will bi till they will
have a ball game after a funeral.
That is the next and last thing
to bo so-tipped off,” -Sometimes
I wonder why our ’’City boys
“don’t organizsa CO.to.i hoeing
team” and go over to some big
farm in Iredell County and have
a match game in the cotton field.
No sir, y;ai cou!d.e,n’t get them
todo'such a thing. L its of times
boys are phying ball away off
somewhere, when in their home
.County they could get employ
ment bn the farm that would give
them that much talked of
“physical - developement” that
soine of onr school officials are
continually talking about, are
our tax p iyers going to s'.and
for so much of Ball game busi
ness in cur .schools. It -has in
past years, cost lots of money
and will in years to coiiio ,cost
more.
Please take these facts and

Sharp Note To Berlin
Fayetteville, May ,30.—A re
petition qf last year’s big Fourth
of July celebration, when 15,000
persons visited Fort Bragg, is
being looked for by Fort Bragg
and Fayetteville officials who are
co-operating in plans for the mpst
elaborate observance of Indeptind-
ence Day ever held in this suction.
All the events of the day will be
put on at the military post in
stead of , the Cape Fear fair
grounds in this city, as originally
planned owing to the superior
facilities offered by Fort Bragg
and the fact that the army cele
bration of the fourth is always
primarily for the enlisted man of
the regular army. The 900 metn-
bers of tha citizens’ military
training cjmp who will be at
Fort Bragg at that time will also
be guests for the day.
Members of the committee
from the town and camp are
stressing the point, however, that
this is to be a joint celebration,
in which-they want the citizens
to participate fully. But they do
not wish to restrict it to Fort
Bragg .and Fayetteville. The
whole state is invited—cordially.
And there will be accomodation
for all. “We have 120,000 acres
here,” said Lieut. Frederick E.
Coy tie, recreation officer today,
“and we would like to have about
10 people on every acre.” Last
year they came from Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina
and Georgia, and those who come
this year will not only see the
greatest artillery training post in
the world, but will witness a first
class recreational jirogram. Fort
Bragg and Fayetteville are invit
ing the public to set aside this
day to visit this great govern
ment institution.
The morning will be devoted to
a track and field meet in which
crack athletes will be the parti
cipants. In the afternoon there
will be a baseball game between
the two best teams at the post,
which represents an annuaj clash
of two regimental nines that has
grown to be a classic with all the
enthusiasm and intense loyalty
of the biggest college games; a
polo game between the champion
four of Fort Bragg and a picked
team of civilian playei’s who will
represent the state; and free mo
tion pictures and a boxing show
in the evening. Additional fea
tures ot a military nature may

London, May 30.—The allies
intend to keep a firm hand on
military control on Germany by
maintaining the commis.«ion of
control in full operation until the
disarmament demands made in
the treaty of Versailles are fully
executed, according to a long
note from the council of ambas
sadors, sent to Berlin from Paris
today.
The ambassador’s communica
tion was in reply to the German
note of March 31 in which the
Berlin government maintained
that it was time for the League
of Nations to take over the sup
ervision. The ambassador’s note
reaffirms the contention that it is
the legal right of the allies to
decide for themselves when the
time has arrived for transferring
the duty of control of the German
armaments to the league after
the time limit clauses have been
executed.
“It would be hardly possible to
contend that this condition is ful
filled today,” the note adtls.

Old Belfry Bell Of
University Is Found
Chapel Hill, May 29,-The Uni
versity of North Carolina is to
regain another much sought re-
iic. It is the old bell that used to
hang in the belfray that was
)urned to the ground in 1856. To
Jr. Collier Cobb goes the credit
of having recovered it.
When the bell in the old South
Building cracked the other day
and was silent for the first time
in 98 years there aipse consider
able debate as to whether it was
the bell that used to be in' the
belfry or one bought foiling the
destruction of that edifice.
Dr.Kemt Battle’s history said
a new bell was bought that was
so much like the old one that the
difference couldn’t be detected
Some of the older residents of
Chapel Hill, on the other hand,
were of the impression gained
from hearsay knowledge, that
there had been but one bell—
that the one impaired by the bel-
trey fire was sent back to the
foundry and recast.
Now Professor Cobb, himself
one of the oldest residents, has
gone on a trip of exploration
and confirmed Dr.Battle’s. story.
Yesterday he'went to Durham
and did a little investigating in
the foundries. He remembered
that Jerry Mason,an old negro
servant, had once told him that
when the old South Building was
renov.itedin 1S95 the hell im
paired by the belfry fire was
given Oregon Tenney,of Chapel
Hill, who Slid ic in 1905 to a.
Durham foundry.And in the Durham Fgundry
and Machine Works Dr.Cobb un
earthed the relic yesterday. John
Kerr, proprietor of the foundry,
said it would gladly be returned
to the U niversity as a gift.
This bell was bought and install
ed soon after the University
opened in 1795.
This recalls the story in con
nection with the return of the
tablet that was stolen from the
of the Old Eastconerstone
porta the extension agent in that building and found many years
county. l a t e r ih a foundry in Tennessee.
In beginning an arguement for
schfiol consolidation about which
there appears to be different
ideas and ways of thiniung, lido
so with tolerance and considera
tion for those who may not see
the matter as I do. , i
Of all men, I would he the last
to attempt to pull or over-per
suade any one to vote in an elec
tion contrary to their honest con
victions. However, I desire to
express myself on education in
general anti tho pre.^ent proposi
tion in particuliu’inthesame way
that I would allow any who may
disagree ftom me to express
themselves.
From the earliest times there
has existed between educa^^ion
and ignorance a fight in which
the educated arc always the
stronger and the ignorant the
weaker. The diiference between
education and ignorance is the
difl'erence between freedom and
bondage, between happiness and
and sorrow, between light and
darkness.
Only readers of history are able
to see the contrast tnat has exist
ed througiiout the ages between
ignorance and education. Jn the
olden days the ignorant wore en
tirely of one clas-iand the educat
ed of another. Even now, if
anybody must fast it is the ignor
ant; if any feasts it is the edu
cated. To-day, the ignorant aro
more apt to wear rags, while the
educated are more apt to win
robes.
There i.s nothing more awful
than actual ignorance. Ignorance
is mankind's greatest blight and
the cause of most of our troubles.
Goethe, one of the deepest think
ers of all time, said; “Nothing is
more terrible than active ignor
ance.” Plato said; “It is better
to be unborn than untaught.”
Shakespeare capped the stack
when he said; , “ignorance is the
curse of God, knowledge the wing
wherewith we fly to Heaven.”
An ignorant man in our day,
in the language of a humorist, is
“one who must drive a spike
with a tooth-pick, eat soup from
a pin-point, hunt bears with a
bean-shooter and shovel dirt with
a spoon.” An ignorant man is
forsed to worship falsehood, be
cause he knows nothing else;
he’s bound to live in the dark,
because his eyes are not made
for the light; he’s compelled to
pull the worid’s load, because
he’s mentally unable to evade it.
So, we see, friends, there is
but one side of'an arguement on
education and that side is in favor
of it. The only ground for pos
sible dispute in relation to edu
cation is the apparent unfairness
in our present method of raising
school funds, in which those who
feel disinterested are taxed t >
help educate the children of
others. The only necessary
answer to this arguement is that
man, as yet, is a very imperfect
being, and in raising public funds
we aré probably doing the best
we can.. The Bible says it rains
on the just and uiijusfalike, and
the tax-gatherer, it seems, is al
lowed to rein likewise. At any
rate, this wee objection is a very
small fly in the-ointment when
we take into consiileration the
great benefits of tha proposition.
In'connection with this part of
the arguement, if you will excuse
me for a reference to myself, I
am one of those who, it might be
said, is disinterested, yet. I am
interested, indirectley if not di-
recly, and I want to say this lo
the men who have children and
aro thinking of voting against
the presentpropoÿition - if bache
lor like myself is willing to paya
little tax to give your children
better school faccilities, it does
appear to fair and reasononble
thinking people that you should
favor the idea yourself, whether
yoiirtax will be little or much.
We have another grade of citi
zens—those who are for better
schools—in the other fellow’s
township—the cost of which is to
come out of thé other fellow’s
pocket, but that’s not me. If I
am for better schools anyvvhere.
I’m for better .schools right at
home—in Fulton Township, Davie
county, and I’d rather pay taxes
to educate niy home, people than
to pay taxes for the education of
the people of any other part of
the world, and if we dp not carry
the present election in Fulton
township, we shall continue to
contribute to the éducation of
practical strangers to the exclu
sion of our own acquaintances,
friends and relatives.

Memorial ceremonies would be a
"meaningless sham” if the-i Am-

declared in a prepared address
here today at exercises attending
the dedication of a monument
erected in memory of those who
died at Camp Merritt (Juring the, war.
After recalling whaf he de
clared were etfiaxples of “the re

said: ,
“All honor to these patriotic

people for the serious lack of
foresight that during the first
year of the war resulted in such
an utter absence of plan or, sys

“Shall we, then, grasp the im
portance of some provision? Shall
we profit by the lessons of dll our
wars, lessons rnost vividly pre-,
sented during the world war,
still fresh in our minds? Or shall
we continue to indulge in false
hope and vain delusion and allow
ourselves to drift back into the
old attitu.le of inertia?
"If we are not to take counsel

Gov. Morrison 'Tells Ken
tucky Audience About N.
C. Highway System. .
Louisville,Kentucky, May 29. ^
When the “pay-as-you-go.” sys
tem resulted in few roads,' roads
roads of faulty construction,
patched roads and unsuitafcle
bridges in North Carolina, that
state voted $65,000.00(j in rbad
bonds, Governor Morrison said
here last night ¿hd “we build
whatl believe is .the finest system
of highway.s in the republic. ”
Govenor Morrison spoke at a
banquet of the' Kentucky good
roads associan; which concluded
a convention at which an organ
ization was formed to work in the
interest of a proposed $75,000000
state bond issue to be submitted
to Kentucky voters for approval
in November.
. North Carolina’s road system
was built, the governor said, by
revenue derived from moter ve-
hickles, interest being paid and
sinking fund created without
the placing of "one dollar of tax
on property.” '
After outlining benefil;s which
he said had accured to the citzen-
ry of North Carolina, from good
roads, the speaker described the
imprc'ement of the educational
system and the state’s charitable
at^d penal inst;i:utiona through an

“Poor Houses.” Danger in Dynamite. Goolidge
Has Fallen Down As A Leader of His Party.
Entered at the post office at

The most itnportani thing in a
business way, which is now be
fore Davie County is the inatter
of the bridging of the Yadkin
River connecting up Davie and
and Davidson. Lexington people
are fighting hard for this project,
and every person in this county
should do the same thing.
The Sali-sbury Evening Post makes tlie following i-el'eronce to
Jlr. .T. F. Hawkin.«, of thi;; place:“Mr. J. F. llawkin.s, who soils Lu<llow Typograj)h inachiiios,
waa in Sa'lisbury yesterday, seeing a now unit of his muehanical equipment in the ofiice of the Evening Post start olf. “Jim" recently had tlu! good sense and discriniinaling judgment to marry a North Carolina girl and lives in Mocksville. He is so thoroughly sold on Mocksville and Davie county that lie was ready to light when a member of the Evening Post stall' made a good natured
crack at the Davie capital. It might have been e.Kpected, of course, for'these fellows who have the good fortune to get estab-
ishcd in Piedmont Carolina are always tiuick with their trigger linger. They will rei^lly light for the best state and best section quicker than an old nativc-borner.”Such boo.sters as'this are what puts a town on the map. If every citizen of Mocksville will boost our little city at all limes,
we shall soon make the outside world take notice that we are alive. The average person hardly realizes the true worth to a town of a person who ah^ays makes it a point to speak well of his home town. Let us develop more boosters like “Jim”
Hawkins.
June 7th, the date of the state
democratic primary is near at
hand. We trust that every de
mocratic voter, or every voter
who expects to support the de-
mocrkic ticket in November, will
go to their voting places on the
date of the primary, and vote for
the men whom 'they would be
glad to see elect°d in November.
The primary is a gi-eat institu
tion, but it is a complete fai^u^e
unless the great bulk of the vot
ers exercise the rights offered
thereby. L^-t us select men who
are capable and honest. Now is
the time to think ¿bout this.
And LaFollette says he wants
to see the Republican Party clean
itself up. Otherwise he pratical
ly threatens to head a third
' party. LaFollette is a I’epubli-
can; and a big man. He believes
iri common honesty and integrety
in official life. He thinks more
of his country than he does of
his party. He is like most of the
good honest Davie County re
publicans—would rather have
good government than a republi-
cal administration., He, liKe the
Davie County republicans two
years ago, is willing to fuse with
the democrats, if it takes that,
to get what the most of the j)eo
^le of the country need.
Speaking of ways and means
whereby the, public highways
may be made safe from reckless
and drunken auto drivers, the
Statesville Landmark makes this
statement which we "Sanction'and
pass along for the benefit of our
readers:
“Phblic sentiment should aid
the. courts in making' the high
ways safe by punishing reckless
drivers,” remarks the Raleigh
News and Observer. It is the
other way ’round. The courts
should respond to,'or respect, the
public sentiment that demands
that the highways be made safe,
by imposing on reckless drivers
punishment that will be felt.
There is no trouble about the
sentiment. All and sundry agree
that something should be d^ne
about it, and the courts are in
the position to do something. As
a usual thing reckless and drunk
en driver.s who are a menace on
the highways arp treated as minor
oll’endera; are made to feel iliat
their offending is not a serious
matter. ''
The Enterprise would like to
add that nothing shorr, of jail
sentences will do the .voi'k of de
terring the.se crazy driver.-^ Let
our judges, therefore, co nnience
to give every oll'eiider a term hi
jail, and make it .so ciittaiii that
men will not lake the risk.

A very few years ago, most counties had a “poor-house,” and an inborn sense of dread, even among its most unfortunate
inhabitants, of that same “poor-house.” In fact, we may still find many aged men and women who are tolerably well supplied
with means for keeping them through to the end, yet who have been, and are still, living in that awful shadow, and making their daily cry when the least thing goes wrong, “I shall surely die in the ‘poor-house’,” while a great many who have lived such lives of sacrifice as any prince mig^ht well be proud of, have met at st that inevitable fate, and might well have said in their dread, “The thing I have most feared has come upon me.” But the poor house is only as - a bad dream. It is only sf memory, for in its place stands a comfortable home and that dignified with the fact
of being the property of the county. We pay tax to support it, just as we do our schooils. No man is ashamed to send his child tp. a school suppoi'ted by the county. We put on,our cattle tubercular test, our typhoid vaccination, and our county demonstration work; and none feel the slightest humiliation at the thought of taking advantage of these helps. Then why this awful humiliation lurking in the shadow of the walls of the “poor-house?” .Per
sonally we love the old fashioned, but we are glad this is one old fashioned bugaboo that is being forgotten, and that the infirm and unfortunate of our county can at last have a comfortable home and at the same time retain their self respect. On reflection,, what would have happened to Jesus Christ if he had lived here to dwindld out with old age? Does any one suppose he would have'accumulated sufficient worldly goods to have carried him thi’ough, and if He had, would He have been likely to with-hold it from those who were needy?

Over in Stanly County last week two farmers were badly injured w'hen a stick of dynamite with which they were attempting
to blast out a stump, went off. The men thought the fuse had gone out and had returned to the loaded stump. As they were stooping over it making ready to relight the fuse, it exploded
This reminds us to say that while dynamite is a mighty useful thing, when safely and properly handled, yet it is equally as dangei-ous, if carelessly handled. Farmers, let “safety first” be
the rule when you are using dynamite. '

Charlotte, June 2,—From ii (-
ters reaching the Caiolina Ex-
hosition office tbe munufacturcrs
of the Carolinas ar.; no'; ;etling
political issues or anything eliel
interfere with their plans to co [
operate with the people of the
two states who are willing to
promote prosperity at home by
keeping the wheels in Carolinas
mills and factories turning. Five
years age more than $200.00'),000
of Carolinas money was going to
the north, east west in the pur
chase of goods similar to and no
better than those manufactured
right at home, and today, accord
ing to reports reaching the Ex
position management from all
parts of the two states, there has
been a whaling cut made in this
figure. Local manufacturers
write that whereas two years ago
they had difficulty in getting a
hearing from (Carolina dealers
and consumers, the situation is so
changed that their, representa
tives are welcomed. Much of
this is due to the co-operation of
the newspapers in the states and
to the leadership of Gove'nors
Morrison and McLeod, who have 3
stood shoulder to shoulder with
other representatives Carolinias
and the holding of the two-states
exposition at Charlotte every fall,
where more than 3,000 distinct
articles of Carolina manufacture
have been inspected by more than
125,000 people at each event, has
had a striking efiiect in clinching
the argument that we make in
the Carolinas good articles as can
be made anywhere. Every mil
lion dollars saved to our' people
by buying at home, the public is
now realizing, means making a-
vailable through the banks a
million dollars for local develope-
ment, and when the movement
haa attained such momentum as
to reach into the hundred of mil
lions, the simplest minded man
can realize what it means to every
citizen of the two states.
Prospects this year are for the
greatest exjiositioii of manufac
tured products ever brought to
gether here in Charlotte, Prac
tically half the space in the build
ing has already heen contracted
for by live manufacturers who
are determined to get their gcods
before the consumers of the two
states, and it is expected the i.-n-
tire floor area will have been
taken.

Vote For Peterson.
Peterson is running strong for
commissioner of Labor and Print
ing. From New Born to Char
lotte two thirds of the represent
ative men seen have pledged their
support to him. For instance, in
Charlotte more than half the
members of the bar have pledged
themselves personally to him,
while practically every other
Charlotte ciiiiien see;i did the
same. Vote for Peterson and
save him the expense of a second
primary, which a man who has
given 21 years of his life to
reaching when the remuneration
was 30 small can ill afford. He
is generally conceded , to be the
strongest man in the race. Help

Worth Fighting For.
(From Tho Salisbury I’osl.)
i\lr. J, JT. Hawkins, who sells
Ludlow Typograph machine, was
in Salisbury yesterday, seeing a
new unitlof his mechanical equip
ment in the office of the Evening
Post start off. “Jim” recently
had the good sence and discrim
ination judgment to marry a
North Carolina girl and lives in
Mocksville. He is so thoroughly
sold on Mocksville and Davie
that he was ready to fight when
a member of the Evening Post
'staff made a good natured crack
at the Davie capital. It might
have been expected, of course, for
these.fellows who have the good
fortune to get established in Pied
mont Carolina are always quick
with their trigger finger, they
will realy fight for the best state
and best section quicker than an
old nativeborner.
consolidation in other .sections do I . .wh'itover We i Jersey Church at our an-
day
more', .'\fter a glorious I'ood ser
vice ill the morning in which we
:;ried to commemorate the death
and suffering of our Lord, we
vvero dismissed sooti to gather
again around along festive board
groaning under its load of good
things to satisfy the physical
man.
And then at two o’clock a
packed house listened to Brother
Caudell bring them one of his
best Sunday School addresses
which was enjoyed by all. He
left Jersey with many invitations
to conic again.
The pastor was called away in
the afternoon to another service
but came back by for him and we
came on' to Southmont. After
supper we went again over to
Holloways’ Church and again
brother Caudell brought us a good
message, and he left that church
with many invitations to return.
I am sure that we feel strong
er in our Sunday School work
because he came, and know in a
larger way the joy of serving.
Blessing on him as he goes on in
the Sunday School work.

“Feather Fluff” takes lots of|
good wind (from your own lungs
I mean.) The children can sit a-
round a table and ¡¡orm sides. A
little fluffy feather (don’t pull it
out of the old rooster’s tail) is
placed in the middle. Each aide
tries hard to blow the feather
into the other’s camp and to keep
it out of their own. This results
in much funny puffing and blow
ing.
PEATHisRL, FIGS AND FUN
After your feather game you’ll
be quite hungry. Wouldn’t it be
a treat if mother could have a
steamed fig pudding made like
this?
I-4 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 egg2 cups self-rising flour
II-2 cups chopped figs.
Cream shortening; add sugar
alowly and beaten eggs; add milk
mix well; add flour. A half teas-
poonfrl of vaniila is next and
then the fruit. Pour in greased
mold and steam for two hours.
Serve with foamy sauce.

TRUTH. HONESTY OF PURP03F, AND UNTIRING FIDELITY TO O U R COUNTY AND OUR FLAG IS OUR AIIVI A N D PURPOSE.
We Believe That It Is Time To Take
Counsel of our Fears and Call A Halt
(From tho Junior Order Journal)
We recently saw a report that j be on thoir guard.
there -were 15,000,000 Catholics
in the United States. If this is
true and if the statements ac
credited to them arc true, and
(hey once attempt to put them
into practice, then the free insti
tutions of this counti-y are in
grave danger. We want t'. re
peat here that the Junior Order
stands for religious freodom as
guaranteed by the constitution of
our land, but not for religious
fanaticism. We have never op
posed any man or woman worship
ing Goti according to tho dictates
of their own conscience, but
when the nien claiming to consti
tute a religious body stray away
from the worship of God to an
earthly idol, to-wit, the Pope, and
are bound to ‘obey his bidding,
then may we well take counsel
of our fears. It was said of old
"Render unto Caesar the things
that are Caesar’s, and unto God
the things that are God’s. ”
We are indebted to the Maiden
News for the following quota
tions:
“Education outside of the Cat
holic Church is a damnable here
sy.”- ‘Syllabus of the,Pope, is
sued in 1864.’—Prom Present
TAjth Messenger.
"The common schools of this
country are sinks of moral pollu
tion and nui-aeries of hell.” —
Chicago Tablet.
“It will be a glorious day in
this co'untry when, under the
laws, the school system will be
shivered to pieces.” - Catholic
Telegraph.
‘‘The time is not far away
when the Roman Catholic Church
of the Republic of the United
States, at the order of the Pope,
will refuse to pay its school tax,
and will send bullets to the btea.°t
of g()vernment agents rather than pay it. It will come as tjuiek as
the click of a trigger, and will be
obeyed, of course. It will be re
membered papists are sworn to
give allegiance to the govern
ment, as coming from God him
self.”—Pather (]opal.
"I frankly confess thut the
Catholics stand before the coun-
tfy as the enemies of the public
schools. They are afraid that
fhe child that left home in tho
morning would come back with
something in his heart as black
as hell.” - Priest Phelan, St.
(bouise.
If the above reflects the senti-
¡ment of the -Catholic organiza-
P». and they are 15,000,000
''ong in the United States, is it
ny wonder, then, that in an un-
№ded hour they have been
’ ® to, by statute, prevent the
reading of the Bible in the public

oiider that we have only been

it is time for all true blooded Am
ericans to call a halt lo such pro
paganda ifi ihis country, and to
prevent any siuch from coming
into tliis country.
The Junior Order standa iVv
one Non-Sectarian Free Public
Sch.ool System, and will not per
mit interference therbwith, if it
can prevent iv.. It stands for the
free institutions, of this countr.v,
and puts nothing between it and
the country, that is, no earthly
power.
Prom the reading of the r.bovt,.
quotations the public may \ve!l
see why the Junior Order is fight
ing restricted immigration. It
inay'well see why we are preach
ing and toachivig the doctrine we ai-e.
If there ever was rebellious
and seditious utterances against
the government, the above are
that. Wc, as true Americans,
are lulled into sletp by nhe ides
i:hat we have the greatest and
most powerful government on
earth; that it is folly to think
that anything could happen in
this peaceful and enlightened
land, wheh, according to Father
Copal, above quoted, 15,000,000
in this country have sworn allegi ■
ance to the Pope and are bound
to obey him, even against the
Government and its free .nstitu-
tion.i. The Junior Order is a non
partisan organization, and ever
will be so lone as it exists, it' tlv.;
above facts are true, should there
be placcd at the-head of this Gov
ernment as its President, Rom;m
Catholic? If he is sworn to do
the bidding of the Pope, aa the
head of this Gvvernment wluu
will be the results should tho
Pope issue his order to refu.sc to
pay the public school tax, and lo
shoot the government agents vviio
come to collect them. If they
believe that the ri)ad to Heaven
is by the Pope route, is it hai;d to
see what the results will be."
We are not writing this article
to incite the feelings of any-Junior
against a Catholic, but to place
the true facts as we glean them
from the a b o v e quotations before
every Junior in North Carolina,
and the public who may read
tUis.
We believe that we are in grave
danger of losing the freedom
given us as a priceless heritage,
purchased by the blood of our
ancestors. We believe that it is
time to take counsel o'; our fear.^
and call a halt.
The time has been, when we
North Carolinians could feel safe/
but with the rapid transfer oi
states rights to the central gov
ernment at. Washington, we are
rapidly being deprived ot that
safety that w« once haa by the
enactment of our own laws; we,
therefore, must look, think and
act in a broader way, and a larg
er sphera than we have been.
The clarion call is to e\evy
red-blooded American citizen who
believes in the Free Public Sctiool,
who is against interference there
with and who believes m the
vijvhfc to wovaUip God according
to the dictates of his own con
science, arid who believes that,
every citizen owes par.imount al
legiance to our Government, and
not the Pope, to join with us and
help figlit tl'ese battles. ^

They have organized a society in Japan to foster hatred of America, say.s a new.s dispatch. That is .iust the trouble with I he world today, and that has been the trouble in time past. Too much hatred has been fostered. If we would take moré time to
foster the spirit of love and helpfulness toward our fellow men, and less in fostering hatred, the world would soon soar above
war. Japan is sowing to the wind, and, if she is not careful, she will “reap the whirlwind.”

“Eight million mechanical men,” is the way Mi-. W. S. Lee, of the Southern Power Company, puts it when speculating on what the development of water power in this state means. , Indeed we are living in a great age. The forces of nature are doing what human and animal power did a fow years ago, and we have not yet started in our march of progress.
The two wealtliy Chicago youths who kidnapped and killed young Franks two weeks ago, are an example of what wealth, as well as poverty, may do for a manf

children. The more we isdom wc see in tho prayer either poverty nor riches.”
Just think of it/ More than a sco^’e of nations have been attracted to North Carolina to learn of our fine road syste^n. Who would have thought of such a thing even'five years ago? And yet there are those \\<ho seem all the time trying to kick our state administration.
We do not know of anything for w’hich we could use this •space this week better than for reproducing a bulletin issued by the Extension Department of State College on the question of
fall pastures. As this is right much of a gràzing section, many of our readers mu.st be interested in' this question of pastures. The article is as follows;
“Farmers who intend to sow a permanent pasture next fall should be getting ready for it now. The grasses and clovers
usually sown in pasture mixCures require a soil well supplied with organic matter and lime, as well as plant food.“A good way to prepare for this pasture and to provide the organic matter is to grow soybeans on the land this summer,” says E. C. Blair, extension agronomist for the State College of Agriculture. “Under favoi’able conditions soybeans will make a big growth, and incidentally gather from the air about ten , dollars worth of nitrogen for each ton'of diy weight." The soy- j
beans should be turned under this fall at least two weeks before | sowing the grass. If the growth is too rank to turn under well, |
the crop may be partly hogged off. A double discing will help to put it in condition to turn well. Do not cut the beans for hay. After breaking, harrow the land h’equently until time to sow the
grass. The best date, for sowing the pasture in this State is from September 1st to 15th in the piedmont section and from i September 15th to October 1st in the coastal plain regióni '
“Many North Carolina soils are too acid for a good pasture without liming. The amount usually needed is one to two tons of ground limestone per acre. If half of this be applied in the spring it. will benefit the soybeans, as well as the pasture. The other half, or the total amount where no lime was used in the spring, Ts to be put on and hilrrowed in after turning the soybeans. ■ !“The soybeans should be well fertilized with acid phosphate; : and potash. For the pasture mixture, use a liberal amount of | high grade complete fertilizer.”
God Still On His Throne
Wake Forest, June 5. - ''While
all ia not right with the wi-irlo,
God is still on his throne and if
man will put his hand in ll-.? ani
hnva faith a v/ay will be fo.iiii,’’
was the message which Dr. Will
iam S. Abernethy. of Washington
brought in the biiccalaureate .sei’-
mon which opened the 90th . an
nual Wake Fore.^t commencement
night.
Dr. Abernethy dwelt at length
on the obsticles in the way of a
propor life service,“ but oh, its
regards are glorious,” he told the
'graduating class of 97.
' The Baptist church was fided
for the sermon, and the congre
gation lived the experience with
Dr. Abernethy. The Washington
devine combined dtep thought
with V/it and illustration in clever
proportion.
The teacher took two texts,
,‘It ia too much for you to go up
to Jerusalem,” the false words
of Jeroboam, the man who made
Israel sin, and“Now is thé time
when you must go up to Jeru
salem,” the admonition 6f Christ
to his deciples, the true direction.
“You cannot s|pp a man with a
‘must’ in his life,” said the speak
er, and cited Columbus and Liv
ingstone to prove the statement.
"If Tcoqld, write: one law upon
the bookof the nation it would
bti no parent or parents shall
leave to any one of iheir sons an
estate in excess of $1,000''. To be
born of wealthy parents is one of
the greatest handicaps, ” the con
gregation was laid, reference be

Ralei,gh, June 11.—The dis
appointment of having a nice
crop of grapes go bad from rot
may be avoided by spending a
little time in spraying this season.
Black rot, anthracnose, and other

by timely and thorough spraying.
■‘The most effective spray to

diseases in Hordeaux mixture,”
says G. W. Fant, extension spec
ialist in the department of plant
diseasese of the St-itp College of
Agriculture. “This material can
be prapared in large or small
quantities in the proportion, of

Shake four popnds of stona lime
in a seperate container slowly •
with water and when the slacking
has ceased, dilute with water to
make twenty five gallons and
strain. Pour the two soltutions
together simultaneously into tne

oughly. One pound of arsenate
ot lead powder is added to each
fifty gallons pf spray for the
control of insects. The spray is
then ready to apply.”
In order to prctect the grapes
as they develope, Mr. Fant states
that the spray should be applied
about every two weeks. Care
should be taken to follnw di
rections in preparing spray in
order to prevent injui'y to. the
foliage.

will use all of our space possible
for carrying state' and national

is to carry ail of the local news
first. Davie County has a number
of good towns. There ought to be
at least one half to a column of

of these towns in the Enterprise
every week. In addition, there
are tine community centers and

It is the ambition of the Enter

quarters htre torught, based on
complete and partial returns from
92 of the 100 counties. Of these
92 counties Bailey has carried 17.
A majority running abóve ^60,
ООО for McLean is conservatively
estiihated in the light of returns
recieved. That is the greatest
Majority by far a candidates for

primary. Mr. Bailey’s total vote
will not run much above McLean’s

defeated the fast Mocksville ag
gregation Olì the latter’s diamond
eleven-tp six last Saturday. The
game was somewhat one-sided
owing to the fact that,the first
Mocksville moundsman was wild.
Farmington took advantage of
this wildness by stealipg many
bases. ‘Farmington also hit thé
ball hard at opportune' times
getting about a dozen blows.
Mocksville though blanked for
several innings kept up the fight
ing spirit, and made a consider
able gain before the game ended.

A CONGLOMERATION
■ OF THOUGHTS
(By Latta B, Ratledge)
Did you ever stop for a minute
and think? Weil, if you did, I am
.sure you. found enough to think
about. You' know I have been
thinking and I have thought out
a great Idea, I have discovered
that the moon, governs the en
forcement of oiir prohobition law
To prove this, please permit me
to say that the moon rules the
the enforcement of the prohibi
tion law and this full moon a
ways seems to fall on election
year. Don’t consider this idea a
foolish one, please. If you have
not had such an idea to tome into
your head, just begin now and
watch and see what you can see.
Some of our officers are either
using a little bit of politics in
their work, or they are asleep on
the job. It is a known fact that
the officers are failing to get
some: of the guilty ones. Occa
sionally they get one and pen
him, but listen heré, what is the
use for them to catch the little
fellows and let the big Bootleg
ger go on unmolested?' There are
some Old: soakers in this county
that have never had justice hand
ed out to them from the hand of
a Federal Court Judge. Why
this? Is it possible that our. offi
cers do not want to catch these
men, or do they not know of
these life long bootleggers? It Js
one or the other. But I forgot,
the moon rules such things, but
I wonder what makes such a no
ticeable change bn election year.
Does the bootlegger ever, get
any help from you? Didn’t you
say no? Well m')w hold on. Friend
what about the time you attend
ed that church conference and
somebody asked the question,
“How are You for Law and Or
der in your community” ? Didn’t
they ask you that very question,
and didn’t you answer, GOOD?
Yes you did. But listen, haven’t
you helped to push* and pull auto
mobiles out of mud holes and
know at’the same time that they
were loaded with liquor? Now is
such Law and Order? Why my
friends, one of our main Bootleg
gers has been known to boast of
the fact that niembers of certain
churches had always proven to
be "loyal aiders”. Don’t get sick
I am not talking about someching
in Africa now, but it is right here
in our township. People have
for years known that sometl.ing
crooked was going on, but they
stood back and done nothing., If
the members of our different
churches would, go, to these old
liquor soaks and ask them to quit
their doirigs T am sure there
would be a great change. Instead
of asking them to quit, many
church members cast a wishful
eye to “ yonders íiquor soaked
man”. If .the church niembers
would, take the proper stand, this
liquor industry .would,soon crum
ble, No Christian will for one.
minute stand by • a bootlegger
neither at home nor in the court
room. Sometimes I wonder why
people will sign petitions to get
bootleggers out, of jail.. 'But I
really 'doi^’t : believe ,we.have a
man in pa.vié;Cpunty ,that would
do such a thing ,(?. ?).. Don’t fool
yourself. -Some people will do
most anything, but try to be
mighty nice about it. When you
put your óld fist tb a'petition to
free a bootlegger, you are doing
a me an, din^ trick. Oh, it’s the
truth, you'knpw it is, too. -Why
is it that people slap, the law iri
thp face by doing such things?
Don’ t fret people for no Christian
is Roing to go on a bootlegger’s
bond, however, ,some church
members may. Me you know
what he is and what he stands
for if he^ dots. - .
I very .often'/ wonder, what
would be 'fhe’/ resuit : if every
preac'iec in Davie.County, would
preach one, serinpn per; n'lonth on
the "cpmmon’’ eyeryday sins, we
have right here iinder our noses.
Our preachers, I think, spend too
much time preaching money,
more money, the need of money
and it is money, money nearly
every time. Is this not ,true?
Yes, it is. What our preachers
need to do, I think, is to begin
and preach Jesus Christ to their
congregations and leave off some
of the money part. Jesus Christ
is the only power that can save
the people ,of this or any other
day. Let’s hear our preacher^»,
preach on His power more than
some of them do.
“Well, well, some people just
ke^ “cussing out” our officers
because they fail to do their
duty, when, very often they do
not know about the violation of
the law”, says some people. Lots
of times the officers know but
don’t care. They don’t go overy
time they are notified, = if they
did,' we would have less “pig
haulers” in this old world., 'But
oh what a pity, a “Pig Wagon”
turns over, occasionally.
And now in conclusion, please
permit me to say a word about
our Main Highways,' Our main
highways are full of intoxicated
drivera. Well you say, “how do
you k*iow they are intoxicated'’
In answer to this I say to you,
watch them drive, see their
speed and notice how many of
them get out of the road.* These
“speeders” are men and women.
There is not any use for you to
fuss about “chaps” being allow
ed to drive automobiles, and
when at the same time there are
hundreds of men and women
driving automobiles whb are not
as capable as a ten year old
'chap,” and you never open
your month about them. Did you
know our highways are not “fit
places” for nice women to be.
Every few minutes you can see
an automobile pass and full of
boys and girls all “a hugin.”
Such is a disgrace to the human
family. Is it possible that people
cannot go along the road unless
they are in such a sill,v, green,
wretched, miserable and belittl
ing position? Some mothers need
to think, “Oh where is my girl
npw and whatis sheldoing.’’ We
need more mothers who are cap
able of ruling their girls.
People, rise -up and take
stand against this evil and stand
for the right and put down that
which tends to,destroy our land.
Remember: "As ye sow, so sha
ye reap.”

tX-GOVERNOR lOGKE
CRÄI6 DIED MONDAY
Asheville, J-jne 9.--With, his
family and close friends gathered
at the bedside, Cocke Craig, gov-
of North Carolina from 1913' to
1917, died at 2;43 o’clock Ihis afternoon.
The end came peacefully. He
sank into unconsciousness at neon
the former Gov lay as, asleep,and
drifted so gently into that slum
ber from which there is no awak
ening that those at the bt-dside
were unaware until the attending
physician announced the end.
So passed one of the disting-
ui.shed leaders of the state, -
In failing health ..for several
mon”ths, some jWeeks ago bis con
dition became sei’ious, and it was
only after a herpic struggle that
he succurnbed, a brave fighter to
the end.
Craig, the student and ir.an,
never tired of reading of the
stand at Thermopylae, according
to his friends. It was such a
stand that the former governor
made in hia last days, fighting
with all his powers, 'ever cheer
ful and hopeful, against the re
peated onslaughts of the grim reaper. ' ^

Lenoir Citizen Startled To
Learn Women Are Voting
Kinston, June 8.—A report
came up from a lower Lenoir
county locality today of. a man
who had not heard of the Susan
Anthonji amendment until he
went to vote yesterday. He had
seen no end of automobileo, did
not doubt the existence' of flying
machines, was not so. remotely
situated that he had not ridden
on railroad trains, and knew of
the abolition of legalized bar
room,s but the enfranchisement
of women was a development of
whichihe was completely ignorant
he declared, A political varation
was responsible for his failure to
be imformed, he said. He had
riot been near the polls in several
years.
The fact that there was one
woman at the polling place exei-
cising the sex’s new prerogative
betrayed the doom of the negli
gent freeman. He hesitated to
vole. .He was ui^ged to go ahead
and attend to the 'business of
citizenship. At first he would
“bed~dif.he would.” Finally
he relented and said he might as
well, “I hear they’re playing
foot-ball up at town,” he stated.

ment work on homo grounds, es
pecial planting, seems to be un
dertaken iiy mo3t people when
the sprinK season comes on. This
isths wrong time of year if one
wishes to get far along with such
work. Tho timo to begin is then
far past.
"In order to accomplish any-
theng enduringly. satisfying with
the home grounds it is first nec
essary to have a plan to follow”, says Prof;.J.P. Piilsbury of the
State College Horticultural De
partment. “This plan should be
begun in the spring and contin
ued during the summer and fall.
As the seasons ad vance, study
the roads and walks and the ser
vice they render ; find out where
improvement in this service can
be secured by slight alterations,
if any; study the trees shrubs and
vines. to see if alterations and
additions are needed for shade,
for ' flower beauty,; or for, back
ground, or for ' ^creeh planting,
and determine where these chan
ges aire needfed.- All these obser
vations should be set down on a
map of the grounds made at the
very beginning; and by‘ fall the
plan should be pretty thpuroughly
digested and fixed upon.
. “With sue a plan in hand, the
■ workof iniprovement planting
' will follow in' natural and most
effective course during December
' and January. The alterations will
be'accompltsh.without thè effect
of having the grounds all torn
up in late spring, WitH this
methods the groiinds will have a
finisKed appearance in Spring
,when growth starts, and there
will be realized much greater sat-
isficating oyer the result than if
undertaken as ,a last thought.
‘‘If a'landscape architect is to
■ 'employed'^ càll hinì in during the
spring, summer dr .fall, and "do
not wait until winter arid the
best time for planting.” ,

Memphis. Tenn., June 4.—One
of the hapiest of all reunion
gueats in the city now is an old
negro from south Missippi, “Col

pion chicken thief of the Confed
erate army.
The “Colonel” arrived resplen
dent in his tattered grey uniform
under numerous badges, pins and
pennants. The latter were sewed
to his jacket and battered cap
and revealed to all who looked
thereupon that the “Colonel”
was from Mississippi.
• “Colonel” Divinity has not fail
ed to attend a renuion in many
iiears. His chief delight i.s to
gather about him a gro^jp of
listeners and hid individual escap

But, great as is his love for
Civil war stories,’ the “Colonal”
never failes to include in his nar
rative a reference to his “Miss
issippi white folks,” as he calls
them, meaning Colonel Kobert«

They ariswei:, “New York”
Opposites say, ; “What’s your ■ trade?”- Answer: “Lemonade.”
Then, “Give us some!” Where

they are to be carpenters they
all pretend to saw and hammer,
or if painters they splash imagin
ary brushes. The ones on the
other side must guess what they

guess correctly they chase the

12 Are Dead; Four Seriously
Injurcidi; Worst Storm Ever ,
ExperienGed; No Warning
Johnson City, Tenn., June 14,—
Twelve known dead, four seri
ously injured, more than-a dozen
houses, barns and mills demolish
ed, 20 miles pf the Appalachian
division of the Southern .railway
made impassable, ‘ .with parts
washed away, and thousands of
acres of farm land ruined, con
stitute the toll of the m6st dis
astrous cloudbur.sfc ever recalled
in this section. It appeared to
have its center near Hunter,
Siam and Carden’s bluff, and on
Little Stony creek and Blue
Springs creek, where a: house in
which were two families w^nt to
pieces, taking nine lives. . . ..
The dead are:
Mrs. Cecil Lewis and five"child'-
ren, aged .14, 10, 4, 2 and four
months; B. W. Smith, his wife
wife and seven-year-old son,
Williard, all of whom were in ihe
Lewis luiuse; , a six-year-old
(laughter of N. G. Ellis; an uni
dentified saw mill hand,'and A.
B. Irick, of Fish Springs, \Tfcnni
Four dwellings, a storehouse
and a mill, with considerable
livestock, were washed away in
the vicinity of Siam; four .‘»mall
houses at Fish Springs went with
the ti^e. .
The storn) came without vyarn-
ing last night and early today,
and its fury was graphically told
by Cecil Lewis and his’ sons,
Walter ànà Charles, seven and 11
years . of age, who, ware brought
to- a •hospital =^in-Johnson-,City;
suffering from bruises and cuts,
the younger boy having his clieek
cut open through into his mouth,
in which condition .he remained
in a tree top three hours, waiting
for the waters to recede.
Levais stated that he was
thrown from his house; when a
wall of-water he estimated to be
12 feet high,' and ; filled with
rock, earth and trees, s.truck the
extent of the storm was not re
ceived- until parties who walked
a distance of about 20 miles,
reached Elizabethton.
The railroad tracks of the
Southern- Railway Appalachian
division were washed out in seven
places between Hunter arid Car
den’s Bluff., About four miles
beyond that point • the tracks
were deeply covered,.with earth,
boulders and treas; an embank
ment between Fish Springs and
Butler was washed out for a dis
tancé of 200' feet and several
bestles w.ere made unsafe.
Residents pf Fish.Springs,flee
ing fronf.the storm, abandoned
their houses as the water arose,
arid first took refuge in box cars.
^A number gathered in a church,
remaining there the remainder of
the night.
, The, highways were strewn
with boulders, legs, trees and’
earth. N ' •,
,Waters of the Watauga are
said to have risen eight feet in a
single hour, forcing campers to
higher ground.
Power lines of the Watauga
Power company, ^.whose plant is
operated at a 55-foot dame across
the , 'Watauga near Siam, were
put out of commission. Water
which had' been flowing over
the ,jdam at a depth of three
inches, suddenly rose until a tor-
rçnt five feet deep was sweeping
over the top, threatening the
dyriamos- and generators at the,
foot of the dam, and protected
by a concrete wall.
The storm was viewed from a
•distance W many in nearby
towns, who reported that black
clouds gathered about 9 o’clock
in the evening, swinging first
south than southeast and turning
north and finally northeast. Two
sets of clouds appeared to meet

reached the bank, and made his
way to a neighbor’s house, Ed

house, it was struck by the tor

completely around. . ■ '

“Faith withouit works is like a

■‘faith without works,',’ also, but
coming to tifink about it serious

FULTON NEWS
. In this day and time many preachers are wondering what
they can do to increase the size of their congregations, and in
terest people in attending church services. Rev. John T. Bailey,
pastor of the First Methodist Church of Georgetown, Del., seems
to have solved the problem. The Delaware ministei’. fell upon the
idea of haying young and pretty girls to act as ushers and passers
of the collection plate. The stunt proved a brilliant success and
Rev. Mr. Bailey says that the attendance at his church has been
virtually doubled since thèse beautiful girls went into service.
But after all, could one conscientiously sfiy that this is a legiti
mate and laudible method ? 'For after all, is it anything short
of vamping men into going to church and contributing their money
into the collection plate h^ded them by attractive young girls?
Of course, we are not passing upon it one way or the other, for we
do not feel that we are authority on such questins; nevertheless,
is it right to give the devil everything worth while as has possibly
bèen too often the case in the past? , '
The calamity howlers . might
, get some comfort from knowing
that more than, 6,000 years ago
there were those who were pie
■ dieting dire calamities to humani
ty and До the world. Here’s
what the Rutherfordton Sun
quotes'as taken from a Chajdeah
, tablet more than 6, ООО years bid
, “ O.ur earth is becoming degen
erate in these latter, days.“ There
are signs that the world is rapid
ly approaching its end. Children
no longer obey their parents
Everybody wants tp write a book.
The end of the^^orld is manifest
ly drawing near. ”
Surely some of the croakers
. who nave lost faith in humanity
should have their opinion of the
world’s future improved by this
suggestion. > ;
London scientists believe that
withinv twelve/months trans-At
lantic commercial wireless teley
• phonic service will be a practical
proposition. -1^ clear
wireless'telephonic messages have
recently been received in Europe
from America; , and it is bélieved
that, with slight improvements,
astounding results may yèt be
prbcursd. There is no telling
whaf the next generation will ac
complish, if it can only keep out
of: hands ot the Jevil in the
meautiihe. It is wonderful how
the hidden mysteries of nature
a^e being revealed and these re-
yelatioris, if one will notice care
fully, are beiiig made, largely to
those who plabe themselyes in
the proper attitude towards the
Créator and his mysterious laws.
History, certainly does repeat
itselt. Forty or fifty years ago
women used the' old-fashioned
side saddle when riding horseback
Later they did away with this
modest device and took their ride
straight like men. In England
they say the women are now
taking to the side saddle again.
Isn't humanity a strange thing
anyway? What is proper today
is improper tomorrow and what
is proper tomorrow is improper
again the next day. Twenty-five
years ago the women were sqeez-
ing themselves to death with,
corsets. Physiologists and wel
fare'workers flung fits over the
fad and declared tiiat the women
were killing themselves by tight
lacing. Then the women flung
away the corset and theuplifters
flung still more fits and said they
were -dll going to the devil. A
few years ago they were wearing
short skirts and they were named
flappers and declared to be im
modest. Then they took on long
skirts and these were said to,be
unsanitary. What will be the
next fad and what will be the
criticism is interesting to specu
late upon.
In many sections- of the country bill-boards seem to be doom
ed. Public sentiment is becoming aroused against marring the
Ijeauty of our Jandscapes along public'highways by unsightly
bill-boards. At Kansas,City the other day a crowd of 500 people,
angered by failure of the city to act on numerous protests against
the erection of bill-boards along the' city’s drives, tore down a
large number of bill-boards and burned them.' So determined was
the crowd to destroy the bill-boards along the driveways that it
required the combined force of the police and fire departments to
disperse the crowd.
Just another indication that the days of the bill-board are
ended. ' ^
As an iniSication of the complete mofàl depravity of young
Leopold of Chicago, one of the youths who kidnapped and murder
ed the Franks boy, two weeks .or more ago, a young lady with
whom thè young fellow was associated says that he laughed about
the incident and seemed to regard it as a joke. Possibly he has
changed his mind by this time. -
Speaking, of fish stories that was a real brie which recently came from Vancouver to the effect that people were catching great quantities of trout in their hats, from th? Fraser River. The :trout feed upon the Oolichans, the report said, and when they are full they come to the surface of the water and float there for awhile, making iflt possible for fishermen to catch them in their hats. Some fine fishing, if this tale be true. ' .
Over in Lqs Angeles the pther day Judge Ira F. Thompson
granted a decree of divorcement to Zelma R. Tower, age 16, from
her 19-year-old hubby, Theodore Michael, with the expres's under
standing that her parents take her home and give her a good
spanking. ' The parents in order to produce the writ agreed to do
the spanking and the young married girl agreed to accept the
spanking in order to get freed once more from the bonds pf matri
mony. This sounds laugha.ble in a way and yet it is a serious
thing. Spanking at the, age pf 16 may be alright. Spanking at
that age inay be better than no spanking at all but somehow we
have a'haunch that if the proper amount of spanking were done
before one reaches' the age of 16 it \ypuld;not then be necessary.
It is our humble opinion that spanking is going out of fashion
too early in our civilization. We need more old-fashioned parents
who administer the proper amount pf spanking to their children
in .their young days at the time when it makes a real impression.

I’ll recommend fbr this old-tinie
favorite: Creani aha'f cup butter
and 1 cup dark brown sugar, add
3 efsis. beat vigorously, then add
a half cup of m'lasse.s. Use 11-2
teaspoons of ginger, 2 teaspoons
ofi cinnamon. 1-2 te-ispooh of
cloyes, 1-2 teaspjun of allspice,
1-4 teaspoon of nutmeg and .add
these, with 2 tablespoons of cocoa
to 3 cups of self-rising flour and
mix alternately with milk to firtt
mixture. Bake this 45 to, 60 mi»-
ute.s. It’s delicious and wholesome
and everyone" will like it., Ginger
cake makes such a hic^ smake for
in-between meals or after school
lunches. *
RECIPE FOR JELLY .CAKE

DAVIE CIRCUI'f
(By Rev. Jim Green.)
We are this week with Brother
Swafford in his meeting in Mocks
ville. Services daily for next two
weeks at 9:30 a. m. and 8 p. m.
Saturday there is to be a great
mass meeting on the square for
every body. Good music ahd
preaching, text ‘.‘Straining at a
gnat and swollowing a camel”.
Sunday 3 p. m. great mass
meeting of men and boys from
all about over the bounty and
special music. Sermon, subject
‘'They’re Looking At Me.”
Saturday night, “Young Peo
ples Special.” We hope to hav^
a great host of young people
present, occupying the center of
the church.^
Sunday liight, the subject ex
pected to be “TieingThe Colts” .
This message deals with the sub
ject of the “Home Life of Today”
-“What have they seen in thine
house?” Reader pray for this
meeting every day and come.
This scribe believes it proper
that he should set one matter
clear in the minds o.f /the people
of Davie, that no injustice may
come by lack of understanding.
The people have formerly been
having a big county singipg at
Center Arbor'about first Sunday
in September annually. This
scribe is conscienciously awake
to the fact that such should not
be held on Sunday, because they
hurt Sunday Schools for miles
away, by drawing folks from
them and foster the spirit of
■‘runaboutness” and desecrate
the Sabbath, by the picnicing
spirit which pervades then, peo
ple go just to be having a big
time, sporting, feasting, roamin^g
I and forgeting God.
I have seen them in their hiivoc
j for years. I am opposed to such
things from principle—I have no
1 favor to gain, no personal to
I grind, by preaching against these j things, indeed it would be easier,
land give me more friends and
Iperhaps more money if I would
jkeep still and agrefe to them, for
realize I may be making
enemies, and may lose on my
Salary by this course, but thank
jod I had rather be right than
hch, have God’s favor than peo
ples praise. I know I’m right in
ontending for Sabbath keeping.
Ilow I don’t oppose these sing-
pgs. But I.believe they should
on Saturdays instead of Sun-
lys. I would love to attend
em myself and^enjoy the fel-
vship with the^people if they
ve them on Saturdays. We
ed such social gatherings—but
nday is not the day for them,
iiow lets get two things clear,
am not forbidding the use of
taberncle to hold it under,
pn on Sunday if the people
St on it. This property is not
ne, and -1 shall not be so rash
to forbid its use -yet I do pray
t the people may respect the
bbath enough to not have it
¡re or anywhere on Sundays—
t have it Saturdays. I allow
it some who want it on Sun-
are good clever people but
0 have not asked God whether
is right. I am willing for the
st praying people of the circuit
come from Iheir knees and
ide it as Gcid shows them.
It I am not free to let a pray-
ss people set plans for de
li ting Godsda.y. '
he Second Understanding is:
r this change of days from
day back to Saturday is not
1« by the c6mmittee appoint-
I'or this occasion. They are
from all blame. Don’t blame
body but your uncle “Jim”.
ni to bear all the blame and
he criticism—Glory to God I
raady to bear it before God
am ready to meet every per-
in Davie County at Judgment
niy attitude.in the matter.
'Oiinlly respect . every one
those who see it differently
crave the sympathy of all
people.' I believe everyone
will make this a'matter of
iver will see it right and not
ll any bitterness in the mat-
J^JSITEKPKISE. MOCKSVU .l.Fi, js.^C. ■
ter,' and at the great Judgment
we will be glad. So hoping to
meet you in a great Singing and
Home Coming occasiijn there
(Center Arbor) Saturday, Sept.
6, 1924, and trust we may have
the greatest day ever.

My dear Richardson:
I was sorry not to be able to
reach Mocksville in time to speak
tonight. I left Raleigh at 2
o’clock, lefli Durham at 3:30, ar
riving, here at 5:4ii, just a little
too late for the Winston bus. I
got a special car, and left here
about 6:30. Rain interfered with
the trip to Winston, and I arrived
there at 7:45. I paid $5.00 to get
from here to Winston. I was told
at the Zinzendorf hotel that some
one had called for me—two youfig
mens If they had waited, we
could have made the trip all
right. When I henrd from you
it was 3:30, and I knew it would
be too late to get to' Mocksville
in time to speak. Furthermore,
the bus man charged $8.00 to
make the trip. I was sorry to
disappoint you. I have made over
twenty commencement speeches
this Spring, and Mocksville is the
only engagement I have missed.
Again expressing my regret,
I am, <
' (’ordially yours,
J. Henuy Highsmith.

In part this depreciation of the

The Springfield (Mass.) Union,'

made a record sulBcienl; to justify
any Senator or Representative in

says the Union.Western Republican newspap

The State-Wide Primary Is Not A Failure; It Is ¡(||(j
A Fixture And Is Here To Stay—Women And
The Primary. It Protects Their Votes.
N0. 35
To one not familiar with the insidious effort being made by a
very few, it would appear that there is an immense amoiint of dis
satisfaction over the state-wide primary system, *and that many,
many of the leading democrats are demanding the repeal of the
primary law. It is true, of course, that there are a few honest
and fair-minded democrats in the state who really think that
conditions would be better under the old convention system, but
these are very few. Many look, at the very small vote cast in the
June primary as an indication that the primary is a failure. This
paper has never changed its attitude in regard to the priinary.
We believe that it could be improved on just a bit, oficourse, biit
even as it stands it is a step as far in advance of the bid conyen-.
tion system as the reaper is o^er 'the old-fashioned scythe and
cradle. It can be nothing more' than the embodiment of democracy.
It gives every good democrat an equal opportunity to express him
self as to his choice ci^ndidate, unhampered and unmolested by
any political trickster or schemer. It is true every one may not
exercise that right but that is not the fault of the primary system.
The light vote which was cast at the last primary, rather thim
being an indication that the state-wide primary system is a failure,
is an indication that oiir people have not yet opened tlleir eyes to
the serious duty which they, as voters, owe to the commonwealth;
There is very little wrong with the'state-wide primary, and, rather
than to repeal the law, it should be added to and perfected, and
regardless of the little kicks;thatia few may raise from time to
time, we are going to predict that the state-wide primary is a
fixture and as a part of ouii state government, is here to stay.
The average democratic voter of North Carolina would not for one
minute be willing to delegate his lught to exercise the ballot in
the nomination of candidates for. his party, to a selected few who
might attend the convention. Even'‘those who did not avail them
selves of the privilege of voting' in |he, state-wi’de primary, would
hot be willing to have the right tak>n away ,from them.
The state-wide primary, is a pai'l of our new civilization. The
old convention rule is a relic of days gone by and will never be
revived again in North Carolina. If every one who is raising a kick acainst thp .«fnto-wifio --’ ’

His ability to fill the oltice of
Commissioner of Labor and Print-
ng is undisputed. Fighting for
hij country in Flanders Field he
roceived a wound which disfigur
ed his face more or less for life.
This wound is of such a nature
as to weaken his personality to a
great extent but should we look
at it in this light or should we
regard ths disfigured features as
badge of honor. When the
boys went across in 1917 and 18

turned there would be nothing
too good for us to give them

features proved that he did

or not they are willing to honor

optimistic enough to predict suc

therfe was a determination to do

pulling together, can accomplish.
In most contests when one^side
wins the opposite side loses, but
in this contest the entire town

better things the opponents win
when they lose, and when the
opposition wins everybody loses.

grass; it takes efforts to climb
up, and, who will deny that we
are going that direction ?' "H igh
’axes” are here' to stay, and
there’s no real kick 'coming so
long as we get our money’s worth.
Rather than stand off and grum
ble at occasional mistakes, we a?
citizens of the county and state
should form a “committee of the
whole” and guard against pro
bable ' waste of public funds.
Much is being said about misap
plication of public money, and
nobody is doing anything to
remedy it. Before we complain
too much let's look into the matrj
ter. It’s our country and our
money that’s being spent, and no
one can be pronounced meddle
some for looking into our fipan
cial welfare.
Fifteen years ago our county
and state taxes were very low-
only nominal—and we had few if
any improvements. Who would
have thought then that our coun
try could stand all this present
expense— ‘ 'high taxes, ” automo
biles, fine dressing, luxur.ies and
high living in general? . We are
not only standing it, but we are
getting a lesson in the fact that
over and above all these expen
ses most every one is worth more
in dollars and cents now than he
was in 1910. So, what’s the use
Let’s not complain; let’s not
hold back. Rather, let’s push
and pull.
Man will learn some day .that
when he helps his neighbor he
helps himself, when he educates
his neighbor’s children he elevates
his own family, when he eradi
cates disease in the vicinity his
own home will be immune.
Any one who will take the time
to study the matter will discover
that huinanity is going up, up,
up—not up as the ancient Baby
lonians started, with bricks and
mortar, but up mentally and
morally. In Biblical phraseology,
there is being built not a Tower
pf knowledge, a mental Jacob’s
ladder upon which humanity is
ascending, and will continue to
ascend through future ages to
heights unknown.

SHOOT -THE JOB WORK IN!
Pall Crop Irish Potoloes
Every year the leading farm
papers and advisers plead with
the farmers.to live at Honie,
or raise crops to feed the .family
and the animals on the farm.
The raising of the late or fall
crop of Irish potatoes deserves
the attention of every 'farmer,
with very littid troiib'e the table
of every family ci\n be supplied
I with this Ki('g of vegetables
1 next winter. In ou;- tests we
have found the Lookout Mountain
to bo the s.'ifest potato to plant.
It will live through a hot dry
summer and if it ever rains
(sometimes it looks aa if never
will) it will take on new growth
and put on p )la oi;a. It will live
until frost, a very important
point as the tubeis make their
best growth ill the cf’ol weather
just before a killing frost. The
Lookout Mountain is very miich
like the Irish Cobblar in qualities.
In the northern part of the
South; Oxford, N. C.. we begin
planting the last w^ek in June.
All of July is planting lime. The
soil should be deep and loose,
thoroughly pulverized, and have
a good supply of moisture. Luy
oif rows-thirty six inches apart,
making them six to eight inches
deep. Distribute fertilizer, six
or eight hundred pounda to the
acre, and thoroughly mix it with
the soil. 8-3-3 ii 0. K., ■ and is
usually obtainable. Drop pieces
of potato twelve to fifteen-inches
apart and cover'immediately. Do
not let 'the row stand open a
minute longer than is necessary
as the sun dries out the moisture
and heats the soil. We use a
planter that does all of this at
one trip down the rowj.
After planting drag tho field.
Drag again after every rain and
be sure to kill all of the weeds
and grass in the top soil before
the potatoes come up to avoid
trouble later. Dragging with a
weeder or section drag may be
continued until the vines are six
or eight inches high. Continue
cultivation with a side harrow or
cultivator until the vines cover
the ground.
Allow the potoes to remain in
the ground two weeks after kill
ing frost, to allow skin to tough
en. They may then be Jug and
placed in a dark cellar or banked
in hills with enough dirt over
them to keep from freezings.
We have used this method on
a fairly large,acerage of Lookout
Mountain potatoes and find it
very satisfactory. Why not re
solve now to have potatoes the
year round? We must eat to live
and potatoes are very good to eat.

The Democrats of North Car
olina, have spoken through their
Primaries and by their expres
sion have chosen another than
myself as their candidate for
Lieutenant-Governor. I bow in
submission to my party’s choice
and gladly offer my best services
in carrying the banner of Dem
ocracy to success in the Novem
ber election.
To the thousands of friends
througout the State who so loyally
supported me, I beg to express___ .
my lasting gratitude and deepest' 1924-25 .schools,
appreciation. I am particularly
grateful for the splended vote I
recieved in the land of my nativi
ty, the mountains of North Car
olina.
There is always some degree
f of satisfaction to be found in
\eyery defeat. I rest well in the
■thought! a thought most com-
forting, that my home county,
within I have resided all my life,
' gave me a tremendous majority
to which I point with pride and
: gratitude. Although my friends
have suffered a disappointment,
'as for myself, I feel that my
labors in seeking this high honor,
have been well repaid for to know
that my daily' aasGciates believe
in me, ia indeed sufficient Com
pensation arid glorification to
warrent my resting in comfort.
Prior to the Primary, I pro
posed to my opponents that we
eliminate the expense and annoy
ance of a second primary, by
agreeing that the high man take
the nomination. This proposal
of;mine, wa3 accepted by Mr,
libng and I am standing by the
agreement. Knowing of the fine
qualities of Mr. Long, our Dem
ocratic nominee for Lieutenant-
Goyernor, I predict for him a
successful and useful term; and,
in conclusion, I beg to state that
I shall do my utmost to assist in
bringing about the greatest Dem
ocratic majority yet registered in
North Carolina.
Cordially yours,

Better Tomatoes Secured by
Pruning and Stalking Vines
Raleigh, June 24—To facilitate
spraying and working among to
matoes, the plants should be
pruned and staked. The rows
are generally five feet apart and
the plants spaiced two feet apart
in the row, thus giving sufficient
room to prune and spray easily.
•‘Before the plant falls over’ ’
says horticultural workers of the
State College extention service,
“a stake six or seven feet high
should be driven into the ground
beside it. The suckers should be
removed from the axils bf the
leaves andjmain stem. Then the
plant is tied loosely with a rag
string to tliis stake. Since the
suckers will come again, they
should be removed each week.
“Pruning and staking the plant
will cause it to grow in heiglit
and prolong the bearing period.
Some plants will reach a height
of eight or ten feet if cared for
properly. The top will be grow
ing and blooming when ripe
fruit is being gathered from the
the lower clusters, Since prun:
ing delays ripening, for a few
day, it is well to pinch the tops
off of a few plants after the
third or fourth cluster has form
ed, and thus force them into early
maturity. In North Carolina
this information applies to home
and market garden.

Three luethoda of review are sug-
iesteil:
I, Modern Application of
standing Teachings of the
Lessons.
l*'or adult classes quiilllled memhers
may be usUed a week ahead to present
ihe teachlnijs ot the «iiiarter along the ¡'iillowlug lines:
1, Patrlotlsiii, It should he [jointed
iiiit how the nallnn sulTered and was
iiltei'ly ruined because of the lack of
■ijitrlotlsiii.
2, The need ot real education. He-
i-ausi! the people were not tauijlit
iibout God they went into Idolatry. The real need of the nations of Ihe
ivorld today Is to be taught about God.
3, Evils which allllct society, such as luxurious Indulgence, tampering with
I lie occult, necronuincy, etc.
II, Biographical.This method Is ahvaj's InterostlnK
and can he adapted to all grades. The
most outstanding men In the history
of Israel and Judnh appeared In this
ipiarter's lessons, namely, Itehohoam,
.leroboani, .‘Vhab, Elijah, Kllslia, .Vnios,
Kosea, Athallah, Uezeklah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Nchemlah, etc. These can be
assigned to dlfCcrent nienibors of the
class the previous week to present the outstanding lessons associated with each character.
III. The Summary Method.
This means pointing out the central
teaching of each lesson. The following suggestions to that end are offered;
Lesion 1. The kingdom so gloriously administered In David’s time reached Ita climax under Solomon, but because
111! heart was turned from God through
the Influence of his heathen wives God determined that the kingdom would be
tent from him. Rehoboam’s wicked
stupidity in refusing the counsel of ei-
porlenced men caused the work ot two ganeratlons to be undone in a moment.Lmon 2. raijaVs struggle with Baal
provM that tlie Lord Is the true God and that because He does respond whw called upon In sincerity He alone
Is ««titled to be worshiped.
Leuon 3. The proof that Elisha was
cheaen by God to succeed Elijah was
that his anointing of the Spirit was
discernible by the sons of tlie prophets
and that he did similar and even greater works than Elijah.Lesson 4. Those who give themselves
up to the practice ot sin will ulti
mately come to rnln. The wages of
sin Is death.
Lesson 5. Israel went Into exile be
cause ot her sins, according to God’s
announcement through Amos. God’s word cannot fall.Leuon 6. In spite of AthallaVs
wicked purpose to destroy tho seed
royal, Joash of Messiah's line was pre
served and elevated to Uie throne. No
purpose of God can eventually fall.
Lesson 7. Hczeiclah, when threatened
hy the Assyrians, resorted to God’s hause and sought the prophet of God.
God’s house Is the sure resort of HU
people when In distress nnd his minis
ters ore best qualified to give help.Lesson 8. Because Jeremiah faith
fully declared God's word, God deliv
ered him from his enemies.
Leeaon 9. Judah, like Israel, went Into captivity because ot. her sins. God
never forgets the faltliful ones nor
fails to punish the wicked.
Lesson 10. Though Israel's leaders
failed, and their failure Involved the
nation In ruin, the Good Shepherd will
eventually come and deliver them and
pialt them to Uielr proper place among the nations.
Lesson 11. When tho period of the
i.-aptlvlty was fulfilled God caused a remnant to return. God never forgets.
He can even move the heart of a hea
then king to fulfill His purpose.
Lesson 12, Through the reading of
God’s Word the people were revived nnd they put away their sins. The
only woy to brhig a revival In right
eous living Is to bring the people to'| know Qod.
Rejectins: the Truth
Has God predestinated some to be
lost? Certainly not. There Is no such
thought In Scripture. The reason why
some perish Is their own deliberate!
rejection of the truth. “Because they
received not the love of the truth, tlmt
they might be saved.”
Will Not Accept
God will not accept the oily words
of new thought for tho sacrifice and
atonement ot Ciirlst.—Tho Living Word,
The Controversy
A cohtroversy with one who preachci tha werd of God, Is with Qod—nol tlii nreachor.-The Living Word.

Bobonka, a native of Austria,
was miss.ed from ward E at the

of the reservation for six days
failed to locate him. Wlien it
was learned this morning that
he had taken a pislal with him
the se.5rch was renewed into tl.e

A little over a year ago a car in which a woman* was riding
was shot into hy prohibition agents near Shelby because it failed
lo stop when signalsd. At that time quite a bit of new.spaper di.s-
ciis.sion went the round, but most'of the papers .-«eenied rather
charitably inclined toward what v.;e regard as reckless and un
lawful conduct on the part of the prohibition enforcement authori
ties. Now comes along another tale which is still worse, if any
thing. A party oj^touri.sts from Atlanta were pasidng the high
way toward Asheville and as they .were nearing tlte North Cai-
olina line they stopped and were drinking water from their can-i.
teens. Prohibition agent, Reubin Gosnell, appeared upon the scene
f.nd under pretense that he suspected the car was transporting
whiskey fired into the party with tlie result that two of the'tourists are i na hospital undergoing treatment for bullet wounds. re- ceived in’ the encounter. , ^ •We think that the time lias come when Federal authoritie.s
should set their’foot down on such reckless violations of the law by prohibition enforcement agents. This paper is in favor'of enforcing tlie prohibition law, but it is not in iavor of enforcement officers going to the point in their effort to enforce it wher^they themselves are more guilty than the meanest bootleggar in the
country. We cheerfully confess that a chronic bootlegger can do a lot of devilment to society, but he is nothing in the way of-a menace Lo .society when compared with some ol' the prohibition
agents who, iirmed with a little authority, take the liberty of hold- ' ing up law-abiding citizens as they travel over our highways,
many times in the night-time. Speaking of this unlawful assault made on the Atlanta tourvsts by Aijent Gosnell, the Asheville Citizen speaks our sentiments in tl]e following very strong ahd
forceful language:“There is a spot on the Asheyille-Greenville highway, be
yond the North Carolina line, at which a wide detour should be constructed. Otherwise travelers should mount machine-guns on iheir automobiIe.s for the protection of life and property when
they pass that point. . . :“It is a zone of South Carolina territory where law-abiding
tourists are not safe in their persons and elfocts from the unlawful assault.s nf Federal and State officers, assaults made with force of arms, without, warning.and without .any pretense of duo process of law. 'riiere oflicers sworn to uphold constitutional liberties, no less than enforce the Volstead Act, adopt the methods'of higliwaymen. There men, women and.children-are liable to be
.shot down, day or night, and especially if they have the temerity
to travel at night. ' ,“Federal Prohibition Agent Reuben Gosnell explains that he
met with resistance when he undertook to .search a car, Monday night and that the officers fired in ;.self-defen.se. The party of
Atlanta tourists slate that they were drinking water from their army canteens when they were set upon by men showing signs
of having imbibed of the forbidden lluid which'it is thiiir duties to keep others from drinking. One of the travelers ordered Gos- iiell to throw up hia hands; C.osnell yelled for help, and, according
Lo tiie Atlantans, their assailants opened fire upon them. Two of the Atlanta business men are in a Greenville hospital.“It is a secondary criticism to say that the prohibition agents of this particular locality in,South Carolina are bringing the cause thoy stand for into disrepute. They are making a mockery of every tradition of personal liberty in'a country founded in part
upon the basic right of citizens to go and come as. they please, as long as they come and go law4'ully and on law'ful errands.“What does Mr. Gosnell e.xpect when ihe prances into the midst of a party of peaceable citizens drinking a plain mi.xture of hydro-.. .1 — v.i..-. ‘Unrl onmn linnn fi

For the first Fix months of .its
eifecjivoi.ess, the “Stop, Look
and Ljs'en’,’ lavy enacted, by the
General Assembly , df .1923 . pro
duced results to ihe extent of, a
reduction of automobile accHen's
at vrade crossings of three of'the
principal railroads operating in
North Carolina, accordi ig to fig
ures announced by R. 0. Self,
chief clerk of the-Corijoralinn
Commission.
It has been asked many times:
“Dçes the'StopM’aw really do
any good;dces it save any lives?’
It does do some good and s'lves
;a very appreciable number of
lives and loss of pr.ipert'-, accord
ing to the figures announed by
M. Self whiiih constitute the first
substantial check on the effect
iveness of the measure. •
V During the six-months prior to
July 1, 1923, when the ‘ ‘stop’'
law went into effect, there were
160 automobile accidents at grade
crossings in North Carolina of the
Southern, Seabo¡ird and Atlantic
Coast Line' railroads, accorbing
to Mr. Self’s figures, which are
ba°ed on reports the'' railroads
.are required to make to the Cor
poration Commission.
Compared with this,there were
only 109 grade crossing accidents,
or to be exact,' antomobile acci
dents at grade crossings of the
same three railroads during the
six months following Jul.v 1, 1923
The number of deaths for the
first iieriod was IG, \yhile for the
latter period, the number was
only 10: and the nomber-of per-1
sons injured in the first period ;
was 52 and in the second period '
45. . . , ,1
The reduc'jicns in the number
of deaths and injured, according ^
to Mr., Self’s tabulations, are-37
1-2 and 14 per cent, respectively.
These figures are of a especial
nterest at this time with a spe
cial . session of the legislature
fast'approaching, aud X regular
session not far off. Thëve has
been.from time to time'consider-,
able discussion of whether' the
’Stop” law is effective, whether
ia is a nuisance, and whether it
should be repealed. There has
been no concerted movement to
wards securing .repeal of the law
but there has. been strong bb-
jection to it in many sections of
the state, and there is ¿ possibil
ity that at some lime efforts
might be directed towards tear
ing, down the big white and red
sign boards with the'worde“ Stop’
“N. C. Law”, that are posted a
long almost every road in North
Carolina.
. But, it is thought, with such
figures as those'' announced by
Mr. Self to support argument in
■favor of the “Stop” law, any
movement towards its abolish
ment would be short-lived.;
