Deducations of Mr. Hubbard were
made public today in a brochure.eh-,
titled "The Doheny Scientific Expe
dition.” Photographs taken from the
engraved figures on the canyon walls
leed ’Mr. Hubbard to tho conclusion
■ *>that some prehistoric man made a
pictograph of a ,dinosaur on the walls
of this canyon. This completely up
sets all our theories regarding tho
untiqaity of man.” .

is quite true that nature makes many

in this whole matter to warrant
more complete examination by a
party prepared ■ to spend the neces

An ancient fortress uncovered in
that part of tho Grand canyon known
a^ "The Thomt)" is pictured in the
booklet. The fortress is described as
an "isolated island of stone” on the
very brink of the Grand canyon.
On the side toward the gully a low
wall of cyclopeon blocks of stone has
been constructed;, the report says.
“How these immense blocks of stone
were hoisted up there is a mystery.

Of N. Ç. Resources I Keeping Costs Up
Gov. McLean Not Able To
Furnish It As The State
Has No **Blue Book”
Receives Many Letters
Raleigh, May l . - “I am con
stantly receiving letters as to the
state’s resources,'’ aaid Governor
McLean today. “Here, for in
stance, is one from an important
concern, in New England. I re
gret that I cannot furnish the
information I should like to in
this case. At presént, we have
no ‘‘Blue Book” in North Caro
lina which contains up to date
data about North Carolina.
"Many of 'the state depart-
wents get together information
along various lines that is valua'
ble, but this, under the present
sytem, is not co>prdinated. It ia
scattered, and it is, therefore,
difficult to summarize it."
In this connection, the gover
nor stated that he hoped just this
need would be supplied by the
state department of conservation
and development.
“As I stated .in my inaugural
address and in my first message
lo the general assembly,” tho
governor continutul, “I have in
mind a department of conserva
tion and development which,
when thoroui?hly orgnnized, will
get together auch data as will
answer quáations similiar to those
asked in this letter I have jusv
referred to. ,.
“It is not propnS?d to do'awa.y
with what-the.'state departments
are undertaking, but to use the
material they gather at some
central place. In other words, to
state it plainly, I want the de
partment of conservation and
development to bo a sort of clear
ing house, or central agency for
information about the state. I
am firmly of the. opinion that
this will help the state wonder
fully. As a matter of fact, a lot
¡of North Carolinians don’t know
as much about the resources of
their state as tKey should, Then
too, there is a lot we can 'tell the
world’ about North Carolina—
not boosting or boasting, but just
plain, honest, meaningful facts.”
Governor McLean indicated
that he is not ready yet to ah
nounce his full plans as to the
organization of the départméiit
of conservation and development
but that he was giving the mat-
• t»r4houghtfa! consideration, His
plana will probably be announced
sometime betweea now and July
1, when the depjirtmeht, hereto
fore known as the state geologi
cal and economic »urvey, will
start out on « reorganized basis,
as the state dépártínent of con
servation and development. It
will not be a new departmient,
but a reorganized department. ',
Thirty BillionDollar Annual
Loss Passed On to the Con
sumer, Department Says
Experts Make Charge
(By Robert S. Thornburgh)
Wadesboro. May 1—America’s
lossess from business failures in
the la?t five years amounted to
over ,?2,500,ООО,ООО, according to
Ray M, Hudson, head of the sim
plified practice division of the De
partment of Commerce,
‘The losses involved in these
failures have to benbsorbed some
where,” Hudson declared, “The
ultimate consumer is generally
the victim.”
Business failures were describ
ed as one of the large individual
items in the estirnated $30,000,-
000,000 annual waste in commerce
and industry tjiat helps keep liv
ing costs in the United States
higher than any other nation.
While living conditions in
America are vastly better than
in the rest of the world. Depart
ment of Commercial officials point
out the vast improvement which
could be brouirht about should on
ly a small p\ir cent of the waste
motion he eliminated.
Annual production is about $60-
000,000,000 annually. Half of the
production value is waste, and a
part ('f this wastiii preventable,
according to Secretary Hwvdr'a
assistants.
“Sohie of tho reasons for the
gre^it biisineis failure loss mM.v
be found in wastes which arise
from booms and slump.?, inter
mittent and seasonal production,
strictures in transportation,
wastes caused by excessive vari
ation of products, lack of efficient
processes, wastes by fiie and
wastes of human life,” Hudson
declared.
Americans, according to Hud
son, like to consider that “we
have one-half of the world’s sup
ply of gold, two-fifth of the
world's railroad mileage, 83 per
cent of the world’s automobiles,
and 63 percent of thet^phones.
“It is a matter of pleasure for
us to consider that our savings
banks deposits; are double, those
of all Europe-yet with but a lit
tie more than a third the number
of depositors: that more than 11,-
000,000 families own their own
homes and that we are blessed
in many other ways.
“But our annual record of fail
ures casts a ahadoW oyer ih|e,”
Hé advocated a.general ilmpH-
fldition in the size«, type» and
•hapes of virtually »11 commodi
ties of commerce, eatimatiag that
in this way alone more than $10,-
000,000,000 could be saved annu
ally by business.

Every Native Son Of Thia County Who Has
Migrated To Other Counttes And States To
Return Homo And Invest Their Money
Here?- Other Thoughts Of The Wéék.
That North Carolina “Home Coming Week” which was plan
ned in Raleigh the other day, is one of the best movements yet
started'in this state. The staggering number of North Carolin
ians who have gone o\.'i into other states to make good and assist
in building up, should cause the folks “back to begin to
think of some way, certainly to stop the migraüqti, if not recover
back some of those who have already gone out.
Speaking of , home coming week for the state, how about ua
designating one for a ¡home coming in this county, either separ
ately from the state Home Coming Week, or in conjunction there
with. Possibly it would be best to join in with the state-wide
movement, and in that-way get the extra pull of other workers in
the various countics. Anyhow, lets try to get back some of the
good people, who, in the past, |have migrated from this county to
help build up other counties and other istates. But above all, let
us start a movement to keep pur home county people at home iii
ihe future. That's the best wiiy to build up this county and make
it a leader among the 100 N<ortli>garolina Counties.
Have you ever stopped toi think what It would mean if some
day the news should reach this tovvn that on a certain day every
living person who had gone out from this county would arrive on
the train and step off at ihe local depot with the determhiation'to
make this county their future home and irtvest their money here?
It wôuld mean the biggest boom our section ever got. It would
mean that automatically the price of real estate would almost
double in value, new business organizations would be springing
tip, and instead of the cry of “dull business,’" wo .should see the
signs of fine busirtssj ant,] prosperity on every hand. How about
this county takinf! a'rei^l big part in the sî!''-v;. “Home Coming
Week?” 7
Over in Davidson theVe ia a lot of talk about the prospective
bridge across the Yadkin River, connecting 't'hat county with
Davie, but here in liioçksville we hear very li'ttie said.’ Is this
because^'th^..,ip|ks oi..'*hi^'cp:ùnty are not interested? We hardly
think BO. ” We have just’ névè'É'fully 'opened our eyes to what-such
a project would mean to this entire county. The people of Davie
should get busy and help Davidson put the proposition across.
According to the latest reports, the crop prospects in North
Carolina are excellent. That moist sections of this state will en
joy good crops this year, seems to be the general belief. Last
year a ’ops in most sections were unusually poor, and it is the ex
perience of North-Carolina farmers that they may hardly expect
two poor crop years together. Let us hope that we shall reap a
great crop this season. For our farmers need it and the need of
the farmer is always felt in every phase of North Carolina life.
“Unofficial figures compiled at Washington indicate that the
population of the United States will be 113 millions by July," says
the Salisbury Evening Post. That paper then goes on to say that
“That's an increase of something like eight million in five yearà.
Two million are immigrants; nearly six million native born,
“We are growing fast, but there’s room for even faster grow-
th. There are enough resources here and enough land to take care
of many times 113 millions."
You can’t always tell .where a fellow stands on political ques
tions, but there are those who fear for German democracy since
Former Field Marshal Von Hindenburg is elected president; And
there are certainly good reasons to believe that the election of
the former war lord is juat a step towards putting the Hohenzol-
lerns back into power. ; First; Von Kiriden'burg TîTss a îcyaî sup
porter of the former dynasty. He has never been fully converted
into the ways at democracy. He is wlwt one woiild term a typical
German Royalist, if such a, thing exists, in the German Republic
at thi& time.And the former German Emperor seems to view Hindeburg’s
victory as a victory for the Hohenzollerns, for he so expressed him
self after the election of the new president, according to a news
dispatch from Holland. ^■But, perhaps Hindenburg may develop into ^ strong repub
lican and throw his powerful infliieniee away from the establish
ment of the Empire »gain, iseeing what his country waa led iilto
by an emperor in 1914. There is no telling, biit certainly there
ia good causé fbr thi friends ofij^rman democracy to feajp.for the
cause of the wrte of the pebplei .

Methodist Plan
Structure Will be a Chùrch,
Apartment House And
Business Building.
Is To Cost $4,000,000.
New York, May 1,—John D.
Rockefeliow, Jr., a Baptist today
agreed to invest $260,000 in the
Broadway Temple, a sky-scraper
project of the Methodist Episco
pal church, provided the remain-
er of the bbnds to be sold to coni-
plete the project be disposed of
by June I. •
The structure, ai combination
sky-scraper church, apartment
house and business building, is
to cost $4,000,000.
Leaders in the project said the
financier’s promise of investment
assured success, as only $400,000
worth of bonds remained to be
sold. ^
Announcement of Mr. Rockfel«
let's investment was made at a
banker’s club luncheon to whose
chairman he made known his pro
posal in a letter in which he said
that the Broadv/ay Temple “gives
promise of being a rea! contribu
tion to the solution of the prob-
iem--of the ’city church.’
“Not only will tho structure
dominate the surrounding build-
.rig,4, as religion should dominate
all human'achievementa,” Rocke-
fellow wrote, “but this typo of
structure, becauiie convertible en
tirely into business uses if neces
sary, renders far safer, in the
days of constaritly changing city|
lif6, the large
ed. Another, feature is that the
building is to be financed largely
on bond and niortgage, with an
assured return in interest, instead
of through direct gifts. ”•
Broadway Temple is designed tO
be 23 stories high, stai mounted
by a tower on which will be a re
volving cross, to be illuminating
at night. It will be erected to
Broadway and 173rd street, on
the highest elevation in Manhat
tan and its lighted cross will be
visible throughout the greater
city.

the note and mortgage are given
as an ordinary borrowing trans
action and tho proceeds of such

repair or purchase a home, that
no exemption is allowable.
¡ "(b) The exemption is limited
to a loan which doeb not exceed
$8i000 and which runs for not
less th^n one nor more than 33
years.
"(c) The holder of the note
and mortgage must live .in the
county where thé {and lies and
must list and pay taxes on it in
that pajrticular county. The prin
cipal difficulty arises in applying
this provision. It is apparent
that the èxemption is allowable
where 4n individual uses and oc-

"The I effort vcill probably be
made to obtain the exemption on
account of mortgages given to
buildinfi^and loan associations. It
is my opinion that the exemption
may be claimed by the home ow
ner if thé moitgage is listed by
the local 'building and loan as
sociation and taxes paid on the
note and mortgage at the local
rates. I advise, however, that
tbe listing and payment of taxes
on such notes by a local associa
tion would not operate to lessen
the taxes that such association
must pay under section 62, re
venue act, and section 38, ma
chinery act. These associations
are giv(^n very favorable consi
deration by these provisions ot
our statjutes and in view of the
method |there adopted for their
taxation, I am of the opinion
that thej listing of specific notes
and moirtgages held by such as-
sociatiocjs under this constitution-
al amendment could not operate
to lesisen the taxes such associa
tions pajr under those provisions
retary by Manley .0. Hudson,
professor of international law at
Harvard, and Mr. Kellogg told
the delegation the proposals
would receive careful considera-
tión.
Outstanding in tne proposals
were American adherence to the
world court: registration of Am
erican treaties with the secretar
iat of the league of nations, per
manent A merican membership on
certain league committees, ratifi
cation of draft treaties vital to
the United States and participa
tion in efforts to outlaw war.
Protection against secret trea
ties was one of the points made
by Professor Hudson in urging
communication of such docu
ments to the League.
Professor Hudson explained to
the secretary that the association
was organized for "the purpose
of an independent, non-partisan
cultivation of such a ptiblic opin
ion as will induce the present ad
ministration, or if not this, the
next one to enter the Lsague of
nations on such terms as to such
administration may seem wise,
provided only that they be con
sistent with our constitution and
consonant with the dignity and,
honor, the moral responsibility
and power of the republic.”

that another $200,000,000, total
reduction could be made, effect
ive on taxes paid in 1926.
Present indications are that
the treasury will avoid making
any definite proposal to the next
Congress, when it is expected
the tax question again will be a
live one. While Mr. Mellon has
made no direct statement on the
subject, most of his advisors fav
or keeping the treasury out of
the fight; they are urging that
the treasury inform Congress of
the state of the finances and point
out what is possible, thus leaving
the whole question of rates for
the congressional leaders to de
cide.
The first iniiication that anoth
er cut in income taxei'was possi
ble when the March instillment
exceeded tha treisury’s estimate
made last summer, by about $8,
000,000. Further evidence that
total revenue receips will be
larger than originally calculated
is given also in receipts from im
port tarifTs which just now are
about $5,000,000 above the
amount collected up to the .same
date in 1924.
Miscellaneous recaipts, a gen
eral source of revenue from
which it had been expected about
$127,000,000 would be cut off
through the reduction by the last
law, have not droppad to that
extent, and indications are that
the decline will only slightly ex
ceed $105, 000.000.
IWith larger receipts expected
from the several sources than
had previously been predicted, it
was apparent to trisasury 6flicials
that the surplus will be far
greater during this and the next
fiscal year than it had^ been ap
parent when the last budget fig
ures were drawn up. It is ob
vious, however, that definite cal
culation is out of, the question
until the .Tune, or possibly the
September, quarterly installment

New York, May 1,—The sov-,
ereign state in American govern
ment is in danger of passing as a
result of the attitude of the fed
eral government toward state’s
rights. Governor Albert C. Rit
chie, of Maryland, democrat,
said tonight, addressing the^con-
yention banquet of the Delta Phi
fraternity here.
Referring to a suit brought by
federal authorities in Indiana to
enjoin thé state drainage commis
sion from crossing the Lincoln
highway with a canal, he said the
government had “started an at
tack on-the rights ofiiBcaterirÇa
field where untiÍ|now nojone hN
ever thought of questionihg state
supremac3f and responsibility. If
this attack Is suc<:essful the idea
of a sovereign state will . have
passediforever.’’iiStates, he sal3
"will become mere geographical
divisions.”
The federal government, in the
Indiana suit, claims that the dig-
jgihg'bf the canal wilMiiiterfere
with interstate commer<i|e/refer-
ring to the interstate commerce
clause of the constitution, he
said.
If this claim is upheld, he as
serted, the government that can
assert its right to interfere in
state police and traffic matters
when it claims dtates.by not ful
filling these functions, interfere
with interstate commerce.
"The seriousness of this move
of the federal government in
raising the question can hot be
mistaken,’’ he declared, ‘■Corn
ing from the attorney general of
the United .States himself, it can
only mean a deliberate design on
the part of the government to
take over complete charge of tho
last responsibilities which were
I still supposed to remain in the
states. ”

Farmers need to learn le.sson
of genuipe cooperation, and have
faith in their fellows and in
their organization. Dr. W. M.
Jardine, United States Commii.-
sioner uf Agriculture, rec'ogniz
ing the need, says, "What we all
need to do is to talk less tommy-
rot and throw fewer monkey
wrenches into other people’s
machinery. We want to stop
trying to litie up one group a-
gainst other groups. We want
to work together; Americans
should be cooperating, not quar
reling with each other over thfc
interests of this group or that.
Cooperation among farmers,
properly carried out;, will accom
plish precisely what fanning;
most needs. It will iron out the
peaks and valleys in the at;ricul-
tural mat ket. It will go far to
ward securing a constant market
at a constant price, giving ti
agriculture definite permanence
iti a business way.
"If applied io the right way,
cooperating can make of Ameri
can farming a big, voluntarily
unified, pernmnently and depend
ably prufitable bui^iness, in a way
that no paternalistic legislation
could possibly do. The Govern
ment cun aid in developing co
operation, in providing a volun
tary clearing hou^e foi coopera
tive orgunizations. It can, in
other words, simply help the far
mer to help himself.
‘Even if we we got no mater
ial benefit out of cooperating
with each other, I should favor
it anyway. If it had no other
advantage, ac least it is more
Chi'idtitin,’’—N C. Coiton.Grow

------The -difTei'enca between -the
knocker and the thinker is illiis
tratcd by the Oklahoma Stock-
man-Farmer in two recent letters
fr9m farmers.
Said the knocker; "If you want
to raise fruit in California ic will
take you two years to get cash
for it if you deliver to tho dried
" fruit associations. Could you wait
a year or two for yoUr friiit mon
ey?”
But said the thinker: "This
man is merely knocking the ef
forts of California farmers to
market their crops cooperatively,
He should also have told us what
the fruit growers- got for their
fruit before they organizad, and
he should have pointed out the
fact tha.t the first advance which
they get now is more than the
total sale price used to be."

Mocksville was cne out of four
schools in this section of Ihè^stàte
to be selected for a visit Satur
d4y by Professors Harris and
Singleton of the Agricultural
partment of Chapel Hill High
School who were out on a short
tour for the purpose of gaming
new ideas in the line of agricul
turai school work. Mr. Tatum
spent Saturday morning showing
them over the department here
and visiting boys who are taking
agriculture. '
These gentlemen were iuil oi
questions and notonly Mr. Tatum
had a busy morning answering
them but the boys visited came
n for their full^share also. For
example Brady Angeli was corn
ered off in one corner of his pro-
ect melon patch and subjected
to a list of questions about as
follows: “How big was your pro
ject field of corn? How much did
it make per acre? How much did
it cost you? What did you do with
it? How much did it bring? How
much profit was made? How
much money did you give to your
Dad? What did you do with what
you made? How much are you
planning to make this year?’
And thus the questioning went
on. It was remarkable how Brady
stood there and answered one
right aftot* another because he
had not only kept an accurate
record on that project field of
four acres of corn but he remem-
Dered pretty accurately how that
rècord went. It was only occasion
ally that he had to stop and think
and say it was “about” such an
amount.
Over at Mr, Cartner’s place
while lopking over the, projects
bning carried on by Hubert and
Glenn they started an argument
with Mr. Tatum as to how young
chickens should be cared for
which may have it seem to Glenn
that there is some doubt still as
to the best methods, but the ar
gument did not become very heat
ed so a compromise was soon
reached. If the local participants
lost any ground in this,argument
they gained it back when they
stumped the visitors bn a ques
tion as to why apple trees did
not thrive in ihe nearby orchard.
The visitor« seemed to be pret
ty well impressed with the work
as it is carried on under the con
ditions we have, which is quite
gratifying considering the fact
that they came directly from Chi
na Grove and Harmony Farrh
Life Schools which have been es
tablished for a nunjb\?r of years.
Will Demonstrate Dusting
Cotton With Airplane.
Scotland Neck, M ay 4—Ar
rangements have been completed
with a commercial airplane com
pany to give a cotton dusting
demonstration to control the boll
weevil on the farm of J. A. Kit
chen of this county on Friday
May 15, according to information
released by County Agent C. E.
Littlejohn of Halifax County.
Mr. Littlejohn states that the
demonstration will be held on a
field of young cotton on Mr. Kit
chen's farm about two and one
half thiles from Scotland Neck oh
the Hobgood road. The company
will have two airplanes and will
actually lay a dust cloud of cal
cium arsenate from tho air. The
cotton will be too young and the
boll weevils too few for the dust
ing to be actually eft’ective in con
trol but the idea is to prove that
Corn Fed Hogs May

Raleigh. May 4-In spite of the
very favorable season for cotton
that has so far prevailed over
North Caroliha, it must be kept
n mind that a large percentage
of the crop was planted with seed
of low vitality and unless the
season continues unusually fav
orable, there will be a high death
rate of the young seedlings.
For this reason Dr. R, Y.' Win-
tbrs, plant breeding agronomist
at State College, urges that grow
ers give their cotton frequent
and careful cultivation. This, he
states, will help tp warm up the
soil and permit the air to enter.
“Poor stands in cotton are most
often due to unfavorable weather
in spring and lack of timely culti
vation between the period of
planting and chopping, ” says Dr.
Winters, “The crop is now start
ed under favorable weather con
ditions but with seed of low vi
tality. If cool, damp weather or
even the usual weather prevails
over thp^pti^n section, and .the,
young pjialrits are not jprojpeily
cultivated, there is certain to be
a high death of young plants.
Frequent use of the weeder, har
row pr cultivator will relieve this
condition.”
Dr. Winters advises farmers
to use these implenients between
the time of planting and chopping
because breaking the crust will
cause the soil to warm up and al
low air to enter. Such conditions
are favorable for young cotton
and if not given, the grower may
look fora heavy loss from disease
and natural weakness of the seed
lings.

a self feeder plentifully supplied
with shelled .corn,fish meal and a
mineral'mixture. See tnat water
and shade are provided. Plant
enough land to provide 52} bush^
els of earlj^ maturing corn for
these pigs,' Turn them on this
corn, which in eastern Carolina
should be ready between July 15
and August 1. Move the self
feeder over too but take out the
corn leaving only the fish meal
and mi nerals. Now sell the pigs
around September 15 when they
will have a weight of about 200
pounds each,”
If handled in thia way, Mr.
Shay btat'js thut these pigs will
return apioflt of $134,62, or fig
uring it cost 75 cents риг bushel
to produce corn, a profit of $1,39
will be made on each bushel of
coi'n fed. This, he states,is better
than attempting to sell torn al
80 cents or one dollar per bushel
when it cost 75 cents to grow it.
“If 25 per cent of the proopect-
ive corn crup of North Carolina
were handled in this way this
year,” says Mr. Shay, “the pro
fits to the farmets of the State
would be increased ten million
dollars.'*

market of about $10,000.
The lettuce crop looks to
shorter than was expected due t«
the prevalence of the tip burn

better grades and packs which
means that much of the diseased

Raleigh, May 4.— The relative
ly high prices paid for lambs
during the last few years havo
had a tendency to reduce the
highest serviceability of many
farm flocks. Normally, a few
ewe lambs must be reserved each
year to keep the flock in a high
degree of profitable performance.
If all ewe lambs are sent to the
block the average flock gets
“agey” and production drops
off, \
“The need and wish for ready
money in early summer when the
lambs are ready to sell causes
some sheep growers to cut too
deeply into the personnel of their
flocks,” says G. P. Williams,
Sheep Extension Specialist for
the State Collegd of Agriculture,
“When this is done the stock ewes
average ages that are toq high
for best results either for lamb
production or for heaviest fleeces
This is Unfortunate when it be
comes general, for each farmer
is depending on the other to do
better than he.is and in thé end
large, numbers of. fariners .are ;
sb^^.iifi^ltting their ewe flocks
to #ade but.
“Our present-day living stan
dards require money, money,
money—to keep up the automo
bile and all its associates which
demand ready cash. The far
mers pf our best sheep counties
should think twice and then sev
eral times more before they per
mit the need of ready,money to.
undermine the prosperity of their
sheep flocks by sacrificing all the
young ewes just because the man
at the scales is ready t o pay an
attractive price to get them for
the slaughter houses and for big
city meat trade,”

Merchant Confesses
An unusual statement Was re
cently published in the News-
Gazette, Champaign, III., signed
byE L. Murduock, head of a
former leading ladiea’ store,
which had closed its doors to
avoid being thrown into bank
ruptcy.
In this statement the merchant
set forth the principal reasons
for the store’s failure to main
tain the prestige and prosperity
it had enjoyed in times past, Ha
said:
■‘Perhapsthe greatest contri
buting cause is the fact that four
years ago our firm, because we
thought the rate was too high,
discontinued all advertising in
the News-Gazette. We tried other
forms of advertising to supplant
the News-Gazette, but found
none that was effective, Ourbuai
ness continued on the down grade
Secmingly-our- friends- had for<
gotten about us. The fault wa?
ours.”
In every city and town there
are stores ^hich l^ave from time
to time made the serious mistake
to which Mr. Murdock confesaes
a such a manly, fashion.
People look tb their newspaper
for their store news. No amount
of handbills, circulars, signboards
or otherdevices can take the place
of the newspaper that goes Into
the home and is read by every
member of the family,-Gastonia

OTHER THOUGHTS OP THE WEEK
to
iReadera of this piper will recall that there was-some effort
get a sales tax through the last North Carolina legislature.
The meàsure failed, of course, as it should have dçne., Novv we
read from South Carolina newspapers whère they have a isales
tax, that many people of that state are coming across the North
Carolina line to purchase goods that they can get cheaper here
because of the South Carolina Sales tax. That state has had
a sales tax for the past two years. See -^at we missed 7 .
During the year 1924, nineteen thousand Were killed in thie
United States in automobile wrecks. During the sanie period»
four hundred and fifty thousand people were injured in automo
bile accidents. That goes ahead ;of thé-¿um^ killed and wound
ed among the American troops for ány, one year during the
World War. And yet there aré those who th talk
ing of a way to reduce the number of ,'accidents on our high
ways, is out of place. Some folks itìay think us old timey, but
so long as there are so many wrecks, as there are and so long as
carelesis and reckless driving results in so many casualties and
injuries, just so long all good people who want to see our high
ways made safe for sane drivers sliould speak out against care
lessness and recklessneiss. V
As another commencement season approaches, we are re
minded of the fine tribute which Hon. Frank Page, chairman
of the.jState Highway Commission, paid the Country mother last
year during the course of òne|of his commencement addresses.
Looking over hia vast audience^, Mr. Page made this remarltable
statement,'which every boy and girl ought to commit to memory:
“The finest sight you see át these commencements is not
your "decorations or. the men come in frock coats and all that sort
of thing. It is the mother and father wlio have scrimped and
saved four years back ai> home so they could,keep their boy hero
four years.
“You are not going to see any happier wonian than the plain
country mother—a mother who has maybe aold butter and eggs
and chickens to keep her boy in college—when she goes uo to
him after the thing is over and he has that piece of paper^tied
with a, red ribbon in his hand. The best thing any commence
ment speaker could do would’,be to pray- that.that bóy is worthy
of that plain little woman sitting a few seats back of him.”
And yet too often instead of the graduates being proud of
their heroic mothers who have done so much that they might
finish their course in school, they are small enough to be asham
ed of them because they are plain. But such, a boy will never
become great in the world.

"Old Man Page,” of the Kings Mountain Herald must have
recently suffered from either overfeeding (something which rare
ly troubles any newspaper publisher)' or spring fever. In his
“Fool Coiumn,”-he cries out;
"I think if I would go off and stay and about a dozen others
would either go off and stay or die that the good old town of
Kings Mountain would come into her ovm. ,I was off two days
last week and enough happened to set us up in the scale of public
opinion by several hundred paces. The others didn't exactly
die but some of them were pretty sorely repudiated and I had
about as soon be dead, so to lijpeak, beloved.”
But there is ^ iiote of hope and cheer in his statement, after
all, for it seems that a school election .'which he had champinoned
carried by a great big majority and he had the pleasure .of seeing
those who had opposed the movement go dovm in defeat, re
pudiated bytho voters of Kings Moujitain,„Xisten .to..what_ he
further says:
"I hadn't much more than arrived at Greenslboro last Tues

majority. Nobody expected it to be unanimous. We are not un

Morrison Appointed Chair*
< man Of Coin Distribution
1:h.,^ The appointment of Cameron
.Morrison, former Governor,' as
Chairman lor North Carolina in
the nationwide distribution of
Confederate Memorial Half Dolr
larr, minted by the United States
government in “honor of the
valor of the Southern soldier,”
wan atlnounced todiay by Haryey
J. Hill, Director General, of the
coin distribution.
Under the direption of Mr.
Morrison a staio'Wide organiza
tion reaching into every county
will be created, having as its ob
ject the placing of one o; more
of the Memorial coins in every
family. '
Owing to the fact there are
only 2,500,000 coins of a special
Confederate issue available, it
has been necessary, Director
General Hill announced, to make
Good Coming From Jt
k ' '
(By Henry Ford in Dearborn Indepeii'
dent)
The fact that a law is violated
does not mean that that law is
bad. Burgulars consider that laws
against, housebreaking should
never have been framed, gunmen
are of the opinion that the law
which makes it an offense for
them to take the lives of their
fellow men is all wrong, and thugs
in general are quite certain that
their liberties are unnecessarily
curtailed by legislation of any
kind. Yet no one would assert
that the burgular, the gunman,
and the thug are right.
Yet we find that there are peo
ple who sav that the Eighteenth
Amendment is all a mistake be
cause it conflicts with one of their
abnormal tendencies. One might
as well argué that the New Testa
ment is all wrong because the
ethics of Christianity are unpala
table to a large proportion to the
human race, or that because there
was a judas among the twelve
apostles the other eleven were to
be everlasting discredited. What
is right can never be made wrong
owing to the right having been
ignored or disregarded. Such
wild philo.sophy would be laughed
out of any school of ethics.
, Why is it that some people do
not obey certain laws? Simply be
cause those laws are not in har
mony with their own peculiar
likes and dislikes; because ihose
laws are a barrier to thoir vices,
or shall we say weaknesses; be
cause those laws are antagonistic
to their pet inclinations.
Nero or Diocletian thought
that Christianity was bad, but
their opposition and persecution
neither discredited Christianity
nor. killed it. Those emperors,
great as they were in their own
estimation, were centuries behind
the times. But before Christiani
ty was ever heard of there were
edicts against the excessive use
of intoxicants.
There never wa« an invention
or discovery put at the disposal
of mankind but caused a great
deal of worry among some of the
people, 'When Harvey discovered
the circulation* of the blood, his
fellow phyicians considered him
a lunatic; when the first steam
engines were set running on rails
there were otherwise enlightened
people who foretold that a blight
would fall upon nature and that
the country would be ruined;
when the first illuminating gas
was used, it was denounced as a
official allotments to each state | menace to public health and peo
based on population. The demand pie used to touch the lamp-posts
for the coins reaching national
headquarters already indicate a
large over subscription of the
issue. Distribution, therefore, is
to be mad^ on the basis of coin
certificates redeemable on July
3rd., at commercial banks thru-
out the South for the actual coins.
Prior to tha^.date coin certificates
are bein? sold through commer
ciàl banks through volunteer
sales organizations organized in
various communities.
With the appointment bf Mr.
Morrison in North Carnlina pop
ular organization in all states
e&st of the Mississippi River has
now been effected, Mr, Hill de
clared.
The organization erected in
each state have a quasiofficial
status, since state chairman in
each instance have been appoint
ed by the governors, who have
j ' j) a irreat personal interest
C,£j. in making the coift distribution

l^üí'ffjyjij^^hat has taken place in the
South since the war.

with their finger tips to find out
if they were growing red hot.
When the first steam boats
#ere floated the skippers ot all
the “winds jammers” that sailed
the seas declared that if those
floating loconaotives were permit
ted, the sailing ship would have
to go .out of business to the utter
ruilittion of the commerce of the
world and the sending of thou
sands of worthy marines to the
poorhouse. When labor-saving
machinery of any kind was adopt
ed it was the signal for all kinds
of human moles to declare that
it was labor-running machinei'y,
and that starving millons would
follow. Those who did not worry
at the advent of the telegraph or
the telephone, laughed at them,
or said they devices of the devil,
and that the postal department
would crumble because there
would be no more letters to de
liver.
Thus every measure that has
been for the benefit of mankind
has had to pass through a stormy
period, and this is just what is
now happening to the Eighteenth
Amendment.
Modem civilization wants in
creased speed because increased;
speed means increased efnc'enc.i',
but a hi«h standard of efHcieticy
cannot be attained or maintained
withoutdear thinking and quick
action. .Prohiijition is one of the
means by which cl.-br thinking
is accomplishp.d.
Who are they that, are princi
pally interested in the continu
ance of the traffic in liquor? Are
they altruists who think that the
liberty of the subject is being re
stricted jjeeause he is being pro
tected against himself; are they
those who grow rich ut the ex
pense of the peoples' health and [
morals,'or are the bootleggers’
best customers.
Apart from those who wish to
make easy fortunes by its illegu)
sale, the principal opponents of
the Volstead act are those who
consider that the consumption of
liquor is essential to their happi
ness. Looked at from this angle
it ii the buyer and not the seller
who is most interested. It is the
consumer and not the producer.
When pedestrian traffic was
much greater than it now is, some
unfortunate would now and then
have to be saved from under the
hoofs of horses or from stumb
ling into a lake or river. Bat in'
these days of rapid iransporta
tion it is the driver, not the ped
estrian, on whom safety mo^t de
pends. This is the age of quick
action, and to have quick action
we must have clear thinking.
There can be no clear thinking it'
the brain of a man is befogged
by booze. He becomes a madman
on wheels and a madman on
wheels is a deadly menace co
public safety.
But it is not only on the ground
butin the air that clear-headness
is required theSe days. The age
ofT;he airplane ia approaching,
and the thought that these ma
chines should over be in charge
of pilots who are not consistency
alert in mind and body is appal-
ing.
There are some people who pre
tend to have a natikering after'
‘the good old days” when every
thing moved much more slowly
than now, but are we to move
backward fifty years or so, to
seek these conditions? Surely the
proportion that would wish to
exchange present conditions of
living and transportation with
those prevailing half a century
a .30 1h negligible.
. Retrogression is not in accord
ancewiih the spirit of the Ameri
can nation. No nation can move
backward or even mark time and
retain its place among the coun
tries bf the world. It is notretro-
gression that is desired, but pro
gress. and this progress can never
be maintained if it is hampered
and nullified by what the great
majority of American people be
lieve to be a pest and a plague.
We believe that if the opposi-,
tion to prohibition were analy zed
it would be found that it was
maiu.ly alien. We believe that
every true American is for it
heart and soul. We believe that
if p.rohibition were to be put be
fore the nation tomorrow there
would again be an overwhelm
ing flood of public opinion in its
favor. Although the friends of
prohibition may not be so aggres
sive as its enemies, they are
fiiriher in their convictions.
It is not in the wide open
spaces that the defiance of the
prohibition li^ws are the most
prevalent, but in the crowded
urban centers where alien in
fluence and alien eagerness for
money-getting is at work,
, After its five years of trial, pro
hibition is not a failure. It is the
people who have neglected to cor
respond with it who are the fail
ures. If it tooK Christianity hun
dreds of years to obtain a footing
why should anyone consider five
years sufficient for a tryout of
the greatest reform since the in
troduction of Christianity itself?
The good that has already come
from it infinitely outweighs the
evil, and the evils that are, do
not arise from prohibition but
the failure to practice it

It may be drab to balance led
gers, arrange stock, dust count-
ters, trim windows orlook after
files, but there is the other side
of trade which, though little
known, is as romantic and pic
turesque as a Marco Polo' could
wishbr.
It’s more exciting than ablood-
and-thunder. novel, this business
of scouting for rare rugs, says C.^
A, Bigelow, a Chicago business
man in the United States after
eighteen months in theout-of-the
way places in the Orient. During
this period, as the representative
of Marshall, Field & Company,
wholesale interested in, rug re
search, ho covered 40,000 miles
by camel, donkey and automobile.
In India, where nomads turn
from the driving of their flocks
and weaving of rugs to banditry
at night, this trade pioneer was
in constant perils of shots from
the snipers’ guns. Even the sol
diers, he says, were not safe from
the bandits. The soldiers have
their giins handcuffed to them
but when taking a respite from
their vigil, the bandits creep up
on them arid steal the guns by
deftly removing the handcuffs.
In crossing the Sind desert, Bige
low was in constant danger, not
only of the bandits' bullets but
the stings of scorpions and tar
antellas aa well. For weeks at a
time, during his travels among
the Hindus, he went without wa
ter, quenching his thirst only by
the juice of fruits. Only a few
days before his coming, he was
told in one place, a convoy had
been attacked by bandits and an
Englishman slain.
It was in Persia that Bigelow
had to comply with the peculiar
customs of the people to keep in
their good graces. At Chourveh
ho was invited to take luncheon
with Amir Afghan, a relative of
the Shah and ruler of forty vil
lages. Seated on the floor, with
leg« crossed in true Persian fash
ion, he ate a fifty course luncheon
with his fingers. Persians never
use knives, forks or spoons, he
was told, because they believe
that it is just as important to
“feel” the food as to taste.
On another occasion the Sar-
dar Sephah, premier of Persia,
took tea with Bigelow in his tent
outside of Sultanband. To comply
with the customs of the people,
Bigelow slaughtered a dozen
lambs upon the arrival of the dis
tinguished guest and scattered
the blood over the ground. Before
entering tho tent Sardar Sepah
touched the tip of his boot in the
blood to indicate that he brought
with him peace and happiness.
The slain lambs were given to
the poor.
DAVIE ACADEMY NEWS
The Agricultural boys
week are studying legumes,
a result, they are convinced that
many farmers in Davie • County
should be doing the same thing.
They believe that if our farmers
fully appreciated the capacity of
this group of plants for soil build-
Davie would become a land of
more flourishing crops.
We usually think of legumes as
crops grown for the benefit of the
soil or of other money crops, but
the time has come when wé must
begin to think of them in terms
of our reliable and indispensable
farm crops. The time has come
when we can’t afford to shake
our head when a neighbor tells us
that is money in raising a crop
like soy beans. Ho has likely
fodnd out that there is. It may
be that instead of make thirty
bushels of corn to the acre he is
making twenty bushels of so.vs
that sell from three to four dol
lars per bushel instead of one dol
1 ir and a half. But the farsight
ed farmer sees farther than that.
He knows that the stalks to be
turiied under will help to enrich
his soil. He knows that the ni
trogen stored up in the soil will
help to make the next year’s
crop a successful one. He knows
that this crop is more easily
raised than a crop of corn and
will endure just as much wet
weather and more dtouth than
will a corn crop.
Naturally, the boys studying
soy beans are becoming moré en
thusiastic over this crop. It is
without doubt a fine summer le
gume and has promise of becom-
ng one of the leading crops of
this section. We believe that it
will mean a better day for farm-1
ng when eoybean harvesters are
as common on our farms as grain
binders.
mow it, anji pat it.in'a barn with
1 a tight floor. Feed this to cattle
I during the summer: it is not first
tjjjg class hay, butmuch better rough*
, age than straw or corn stover.
When feeding this roughage,
beat it well with the pitcbfork,
so as to shatter off the seed,
then rake up the seed and sow
them in the hull.
'By this method,” says E C.
Blair, Extension Agronomist,
“one farmer saved enough seed
from two acres to sow thirty
acres on his own farm, and had
a large quantity to sell. The
largest yields of seed are obtain-
dium fertility. On rich soils the
the tendency is to produce more
stem and leaf growth, with fevv-
er seed*”
In sowing Crim.son Clover in
the hull, Mr. Blair recommends
the use of thirty pounds of seed
per acre, sown'about three weeks
before the time of sowing deaned
seed. The unhulled seed . are
harder to sow evenly, he states
and it takes them longer to come
up than cleaned seed. On the
other hand the young clover is
less apt to be injured by drought
since it takes considerable mois
ture to penetrate the hull and
ed on land that is not above me- cause thè seed to germinate.

Raleigh, May 4.—One of the

legumes this may be overcome by

with Crimson clover. Simply

Don’t Talk Too Much.
The Winston-Salem Journal be
lieves that the old idea that work
makes women less attractive is
all wrong. That paper is of the
opinion that “work for women in
' office and business and even mills
and factories in counties where
:'*modern methods are employed is
„‘ Btimulatihg rather that depress-
|’lng, tendi|ig to rende the girls

Young Theodore Roosevelt, son

section of the world, possibly the
most hazardous trip one jcould
take on thia ‘.‘mundane sphere”.
Turkeston has been referred to
by some one as, “the top of the
world.”
Roosevelt says he is going , to
the “top of the world” in quest
of the ovis poli, the original an
cestor of the sheep, who make?
his home among the barred rocks
on the very top of the world. But
some believe that what thé yQurig
Roosevelt is a^er is not the rare

Talk is essential to our well be
ing, our developments, our com-
pani'onbhips, etc., but I often
wonder if about half of the mis
chief in the world isn’t caused
by too much talking; about one
lalf the difficulties and troubles
we get into are the.direct results
of too much exercise of the ton
gue, when we could hav.e got
along just. as well without it
'here is much wisdom in that
ancient maxim: “Keep your
mouth shut and your eyes open. ’
f,we would employ this as our
counsel and rely upon it, it would
be of much help.
I do not know anybody in any
situation or profession in life to
whom this advice is notappliable.
It is sometinies said that lawyers
live by talking; that talking is
their trade, and so on, but the
fact is that lawyers are apt to
talk too much ad anybody, and
to suffer by it. To spin out lotig
arguments they neceasarily fall
in'to the habit of dealing more in
fancy than in facts, saying things
about parties and witnesses that
do much harm atid no good; con
sequently their reputations for
candor will diminish thereby. To
hear 9otne lawyeirs at the bar
you would suppose that if they
were held up by the feet the
words would run out of their
mouths by sheer force of gravity
for weeks at a time without dis-
tiirbing their brains.
A preacher may talKtoo much.
One of the best sermons known
in, the world was the" sermon on
the Mount. You could read it, as

tho its style and powers are un

brevity.
Our politicans talk too much,
It is really refreshing, and as
rare as' refreshing, to hear a sen

The senaa’.ional reduction, in

Just tRte other day I chanced
to overhear a conversation be
tween two men, excellent men,

using his own mental capacities
in studying the subject,. and
forming his own thoughts, and
his views. It is deplorable but a
certainty, that just such useless
prattle a* this is retarding tbe
progress of our country along
■cientific lines.
It may be singulis, biit what
I like is the quiet, contemplai.ive
thoughtful old man, who sits in
his arm chair, his chin resting be
tween his thumb and finger,
reading. He likes old faiahioned
ways, old bookj and friends.
That old man makes noise in the
world because he is a thinker,
not a talker. You give him your
opinion about men and things
and he hears it; tell him facta
and he exiamines and satisfies
(limself about jthem. Ask his
opinion, and if you got it, it will
corne as alow as cautiously as if
be bSlieved it to be worth some
thing, and it usually is. What a
town Mocksville would be if many
of us vvere quiet old men who
thought a great deal and talked
little,' instead of vica versa.

“Husbands love
Love is “heart'

your wives."
felt” but not “heart bound”. It
goes out to othera« Love pro«
jentiment. A husbands love for
hii wife is not etrtrhalljr measured
by the “sv^eet'heart” letters of
pre-wedding days, nor by funeral
. tears and tombstones, but by
daily sympathy and help by com
panionship. by making home tho
tha central place. of ,'ove and
desire and delight. A husband
with his pockeb full of “browns
mule” and his goozle full of
liquor hanging around. corners,
drinking “pop,” while his wife
labora at home, in need of grocer
ies and shoes etc., shows no love
towawl her. The extent of “hus
band” love shoüld be seen in the
text ‘As Christ loved the church’
and ‘Gave Himself for it'. So
we husbands should \give our-
selvea for them. Our gifts sug
gest our love. To love ones wife
is, tell them so,-then show them
so by deeds of ' evidence, prove
that love. Cause her to know
that you love her, and you hâve
set her soul aglow. In her soul
flowers will blossom; orchestras
vibrate, chimes will ring, and
sweetness return. Many of us
have often seglected
If so it is our time to love them
as the text indicates.
A man cannot love an other
fellowa wife with all: his heart
and “give himself ” for hia own
wife. “Christ gave Himself for
the Church,” bo should husbands
love our wives.
The lack of real love between
husband and wives may be the
result of:
1. Undeveloped, uncultivated
affection, perhaps marriage came
with too short courtship. Better
to prolongue your courtship be
fore wedding day, for most peo
ple get too busy ' to tak'e time to
court much afterward.
2. Sometimes love exists, but
.¡y nas been interrupted in some
\ ; WFi until it just waits for the
f -t^'^ifiifinions smile.
To know that we have for them
a deep love helps their confidence
but they expect more than that
They relish more a daily practi
cal expressive love which sei’ves
caresses and remembers.
Men, we all have room for im
provement. Let us go on to im
provement.

Association.
THIS SUMMUR^ WHAT?
How about .thia tiunimer pro^
gram of the P. T. A? That is
the time each local should be
most active. What is your local
branch, or your council, doing to
get ready for the coming months
of activity on the part of the
boys and girls of the community?
How about the work life of the
children? Does the daily pro
gram for each child include
some hours of good, hard work
and definitely exacting duties?
It is very unfortunate that there
are so many servants in tha
homes. Thia cheats the children
out of their inalienable birth
right-hard work. So in yoiir
homes P. T. A. member; are the
children going to have their
chance?
Hov/ about the play life of tho
children? Will'(here , be play-
ground supervision and plenty of
wholaome recreation and games?
Must the favorite amusement for
the girls be hanging about the
stores and streets? Must the
girls be left to “flap”, flirt with
any chance stranger, go auto
riding unchaproned, attend cheap
dances and places of amusnent
and run about nights unprotect
ed? Must the boys be left to
their own devices, learn injurious
habits, meet unw'holeaome assoc
iates and sow seeds of dissipation.
Will Mother take some time to be
young with daughter, and will
Father chum with son? Will the
family time off be spent together?
How about the community pro-
gramfor soul growth?Is the daily
vac;ation Bible school to be en
couraged? Can you induce the
churches to còme together and
hâve one worth-while school? Is
every good influence in the com
munity or that can be secured to
be capitalized for the benefit of
the children?
P.-T. A. did you know your
busy time is just coming? Did
you realize that even greater than
the winter opportunity .for ser
vice is the one coming this sum
mer? The challenge comes to us
to carry on duihig the summer
months. 'This Summer-What?

The Klan, A Nation
Builder
(lasued by the Knights of The Ku
Kiux Klan)
The assembling of the free,
constructive, forwar-looking ele
ments of our naitional life into
one body built concretely and ac
tively upon the principles that
have made our nation great, is
the most heartening event of the
century. Such is the Ku Klux
Klan, the rededication of our
citizenship to the great mòtto:
“Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,”
the reconstruction of citilénship
upon broad lines of intelligence,
democracy and progress. The
Klan is operative Masonry, Odd
Fellov/ship and K. P-ism., opera
tive education, Protestantism and
Americanism. It is the one open
forum where all free men meet
without sacrifice of truth or con
science and join hands in a hiappy
united effort to build a greater
America. So fundamental,
structural and vital is the program
we propose to carry out, that our
coming at such a time as this
must be looked upon as a special
providence. Our foundaiion is
truth, our program ia construc
tive and pre-eminently American
We are fighting the battle of
every man, woman and child in
the land regardless of race, color
or creed.
Of course there are lines of
cleavage for which’ we are not
responsible. An organization to
be efliicient' must be homogeneous
Certain groups are inherently
incompatible and this misfortune
is theirs, not ours. We are not
responsible for the Roman Cath
olic monoply of religion, the Jew
ish monoply of money and pride
of blood, nor for the Negro’e na
ture and blood. We did not create
these distinctions. They are not
arbitrary, but age-old and fun
damental, There are those who
charge us with building an organ
ization upon race prejudice. Thia
ia error one hundred per cent.
We are building it without race
or religious prejudice. Religious
and racial incompatibility are
eliminated. The Klan is essen-
tilly a unit racially and religious
ly, as it should be.
The fact that certain groups
are not admitted is not evidence
that we are against them, as
much as it is evidence that they
are against us. If one of the
members of these groups really
endorsed o u r principles, h e
might seek an entrance hoping
to be the happy exception. It
would be folly to invite into our
membership, those who deny our
right to exist or those who would
exploit or degrade us. Of course
Negro, Jewish or Roman Catholic
organizations are entirely_ free
from racial and religious preju
dice! The difference between
ua and the Roman Catholic ia
that between autocracy and de
mocracy. It is also the difference
between the human and the Di
vine. ' Protestant claim a Divine
head. Our friends of the other
faith are satisfied with a human
head. Aa to ourselves arid thè
Jews the difference ia thé Gospel
of Christ which they reject. From
the negro we are;, divided by
thousands of years of civilizatiotf
aud , world-wide differences in
race and blood. We are no more
separated from these groups than
they are f/om us. We are work
ing with those who can best work
together and best agree.
As nation builders, we are first
of all Americans. An American
is one who lives in Ainerica, and
lives for America, one who loves
America and will die for America,
fcir the fiake.of America, one
whose oath of allegiance ia to
America above any other govern
ment, civil, political or ecclesias
tical in the whole world, one,
whose liberty, loyalty and love
are inseparable from the destiny
and glory of America^ As Jeru
salem to Jews, 39 is America to
Americans. We paraphrase; “If
I forget thee 0 America, Jet tnv
right hand forget her skill. Ы
my tongue cleave to the roof oi
my mouth, if I remember thee
not, if I prefer not Americ«
above my chief joy. ” An Amer.
ican continues to build upon or.
igninal American principlea-.'
love of liberty above life. Great,
er than liberty and without which
liberty is not safe, ie the LOVE
•of liberty. The risking of
upon the wild waves of the aea
and in the presence of wild ani.
mais and wild men, together with
a willingness to place three
thousand miles of ocean between
them and the homeland and their
refusal to return thither all bear
witness to the supreme love oi
liberty. America was born of a
love for liberty. Forget it not
nor depart from it if you would
be an American.
And this liberty was first of all
religious liberty. Personal liber-'
ty is prized and the most inten
sely personal thing within us is
religion. The right to approach
God for one’s self is to the sin-
cere soul the dearest privilege
Upon earth, even as religion is
the deepest and most c(mtrollinf
fact of our nature. Freedom of
personal choice, freedom of inj.
tiative-this our fathers came
seeking. But after making this
bold sacrifice which surely was
price enough to pay, those in an-
thority at home followed, seeking
anew the allegiance, both politi,
cal and religious, of the settlers.
In fact, the kings of Europe
claimed to own America; Colum
bus on his second voyage with
seventeen ships .and several
thousand men had the special
permission of the Pope to take
possession of the entire country
lor the Spanish .Crown. After
ward the Pope divided the entire
Western World between the
Spanish and Portugese, the for
mer all west of a line three hun
dred and seventy leagues west of
the Cape Verde Islands, the lat
ter all east of that line.
You know the rest in the books
you have heard how the British
regulars fired and fled and how
the colonists after enduring the
I privation of the New World had
to resist unto blood the encroach-
ments of the Old World.
A Iqve for political or instituti
onal liberty brought on the long
bloody war of the revolution. If
the present liberal policy of Great
Britian had prevailed at that
time war might have been avoid
ed. But this could not be fore
seen, An American does not
want to import either his politics
or his religion. He feels confi*
dent tha-t in America there can
be found both the brains and th&

['nation. Lfct the text books vvhil'e

Since religious liberty is our
primal passion’ let . the Bible be:

nju.it the press be more and more
Emancipated fr(»m the grip of an
Interested propaganda that would
^eek to mould public opinion in
gaya advantageoua t^ 'self-stylud
nd self-appointed leaders.
In the founding of our govern
nent there was an opportunity to
¡correct a practical prevalent in
ItheOld World, namely, the union
of church and atate, which had
Ibeen in vogue since the eady
Christian centuries. A pagan
■emperor though somewhat of a
convert brought about the union
of the church with the empire in
order to hold together the state
which was crumbling in his
handa. Thus the church and
state were united and the Roman
Catholic church is the result of
that union and is still within a
union of state and church. About
one Iiundred and fifty years later
when the western nations be
came separate and distinct pow
ers, the empire automatically dis
appeared and the church left
standing -^abfiorbed the frame
work of the empire. The Bishop
of Rome assumed the title of
Pontifex Maximus which ‘title
carried the traditions of Rome
from early days, being borne by
Julius Caesar, >ind this bishop
now Pontifex Maximus assumed
tho imaginary reigns of govern
ment and thus began the policy
of the ovorlordship of the popes
which continued for about one
thousand years, culminating and
dosing with Charlea V in 1530.
During this.period the claim of
tho church of Rome to its right
to function as a super state had
ample opportunity to make good
its claini.' But instead, there was
a thousand years of failure.
To say the spiritual should be
over the temporal is to speak the
truth, but this being ijitef-preted
means the the Divine should be
over the human for “God is a
spirit.” A spiritual man will seek
tho leadership of God. He will
not ask God to abdicate in bis
favor or usurp His place. Men
are still men whatever their
name or fame, they are still
human. No man or combination
of men can make them any more
than men or endow them with
Di vine authority. The presump
tion of any organization to occu
py a place of Divine authority to
rule the rest of mankind ' will be
resented as long as the world
stands./. No not that long, for
the universal democracy will ar
rive before tha'i time, and all
such groups will have disappear
ed. Let all men kneel together
before God. If men cannot by
searchipK find God, they cannot
by organization create God. The
man who eays: “Kneel to me,”
immediately alienates the brain,
culture and conscience of man
kind.
Properly speaking, the church
and state cannot be united. They
belong to different realms. The
church is built upon love, the
state upon force, The final ap
peal of the church is sacrifice,
that of the state is war. The
church seeks to get men into
Heaven, the state, into jail. The
church says: “Come unto me and
I will give you rest.” The state
says; “Hang by the neck ,until
dead.” In the case of church
and state, in union there is weak
ness, in separation there is
strength. Elect the Christian
111 a n governor or senator, or
president. The Chriatip,. the
spiritual man, seeks the leader
ship of God, not men. Denomin ■
ntiona are human. The church
of God is Divine and the head is
Christ “from whom the whole
body fitly framed and knit to

who claims to rule the conscience
of mankind is making a futile

onevhoM purpose and mission
Raleigh, ' May 12—Powdery
mildewand blotch, two very com
mon diseases of the rose, now be
ginning to appear, may be con
trolled eff actively by dusting with
sulphur-arsenate made by mixing
19 parts of finely ground sulphur
to one part of dry powdered ar
senate of lead.
This dust material amounts al
most to a specific for the two
rose diseases. The material shouit
be thoroughly mixed before ap'
plying and dusted on tho plants
with a dust gun. If a dust gun
is not availat)ie one may use tiiie
home-made device of a cloth sacK
on a pole,
Dr. P. A. Wolf, plant disease
investigator for the North Caro
lina Experiment Station, recom
mends that the dust be put on
when the plants are damp with
dew or rain. Several applications
at intervals .of a few days may
be necessary to bring tho disease
under control but best success
always follows where the dusting
is started with the first appear
ance of the disease.
Dr. Wolf states th>it the Ramb
ler group of roses is subject to
mildew but it is not destructive
to bush roses; on the other hand,
blotch is confined almost entirely
to bush roses and nearly all ramb
lers are free from its attack. The
mildew is characterized by a
frosty or powdery coating on the
leaves, young stems and flower
buds. The affected leaves become
curled and twisted and drop off
prematurely. The affected buds
either fail to open or the flowers
are imperfect. Blotch shows it
self by the presence of large black
j patches on the leaves. As the
j blotches develop, the leaves be*
come light green, then yellow and
finally drop off. ,Thia will so weak
en the vigor of the plant that
few.flowers will be formed.
‘Dusting ia better than spray
ing,” says Dr. Wolf, “because
the liquid sprays discolor the foli
age and flowers with the dried
coating.”

From Tho Winstbn-Salom Joumai.
Rov. Dr. Charles Francis Potter of
New Yorit has given up his pulpit to
woric at Antioch College. In mark
ing announcement of the change, Dr.
Potter says that "praaching is now
largely fatiia."
ITtat is interesting, but not at ali
snrprising, aoming from Dr. Potter,
No doubt ha fonnd tha'. t'aa aott of
preaching ha did waa "largely fatila."
It aliMya hat bam «ad idw«j« will
bit.
Dr. Potter doaa aol M iavk ia taa
virgin birth af dtviaitjr H Jaiua, la
his pulpit he undertook t« hold ap Ja-
sus aa a man, aot a< a risen Lord.
Men who meed Jesna naed more than
a mere man. They ara aot inteiasted
in anything less than a Saviotir. Any
preaching that presents Jesus as less
than the divine Son of God , who is
able to Sara men from their sins ia
l&rgely futile," always has been and
alway.i will be.

. A . WORD ABOUT PRAYEK
Mockaville, N.
• ' M ay 16, 1926,
Editor o f‘E nterprise: .
M ay I say. a woi'd about the
prayer that stopped the rdin at
Burlington a ^ ew weeks ago. I
do not deny Mr. Editor, that it
rained. I do not deny that the
Rev;' Mr. Ham asked God to hold
up tlie rain so that the congrega
tion coujd go home. I do not
deny that the rain ceased to fall
a few minutes after this remar
kable prayer was made. I do say,
however, that it is illogical to
suppose that the rain ceased to
fall'^ c au se the prayer was made
I have never known a rain that
did not stop. I have known many
a rainíftlí to cease suddenly and
unexpectedly.
I believe in prayer. I think
believe in prayer in a ’better way
than Mr.: Ham does. believe
that our prayers ought to be re
asonable and unselfish. To oft
en we are selfish in our prayers
as in other things. Recently we
liave been pleased with an abun
dant rain, which was badly need
ed. Xhe, wheat crop was suffer
ing r intensely. . Some . tobacco
plants w er? becoming overgrown.
Let us suppose that on Monday
night,. M ay 11th, some evangelist
asked God to stop that rain so
that the congregation could go
home. Would it be Chi'istlan: to
be'so, unreasonable and so self
ish? ' ■ . ■

Epworth Leagm District
Meeting
. The Winston-Salem District
■League Union held its regular
' monthly meeting, Tuesday o»?n-
ing at the Mockivillo Methodist
Church., There wore aoout one
hundred members of the various
fchapters in this district, every
league Chapter in Winiton-Salem
being represented. A number
; waa also present from the Cpolee-
mee and Clemmons Leagues.
Mocksville won the attendance
banner for the meeting and the
efficiency banner was won by
Grace Jiethodist Church Chapter
of Winston-Salem. A letter was
distributed to each league urging
a membership drive. The leagues
are co-operating in this mov* for
more metnbers and a great many
.: young people of the various chur
ches are expected to join the lea
gues.
A committee was appointed,
with Mr. Ed Raper as Chairman,
. to make plans for two picnicn to
be enjoyed by the members of
'the Union. On« of these pioniaa,
'it is planned, will be held before
the Conference at Salisbury and
the other sometime afterwards.
;>The time, place and other ar
rangements wili be announced
later. ' :
One of the important moves of
' the Union that evening was the
elimination of the host Chapter
from eligibility to compete for the
. attendance banner. The host

Music a Scièntific Study
Music is recognized as tJie uni
versal science, therefore, wu have
chosen tho above caption for this
article when Ave refer to music
as n scientific study we mean to
refer to the system atic 'knowledge
acquired by the careful study of
music.
The daiy is beginning to dawn
that the educatoi's of the won’.J
are seeing the need of the deve
lopment of the ihusical talent
along with thè other reqiiiaitea
of an education. The loading col
leges are establishing “The Choir
of M usic,” so that our boys and
girls can study music along with
their othev studies' at College.
Some High Schboi!s are seeing '.he
need of the (loyejopment .of the
"musical talent and, are providing
for to meet this need. W e,have
'said all this;; to : show you that
music is taking its place with tho
other studies of .systimatjc know
ledge. ' Music is the science and
art bf,.tones, hence our next arti
cle w ili be on "Toneality.”

add more cows and start a flock

There are m any evidences that
the farni census work and re
sults have benefitted farm ers
both directly and indirectly. This
information has enabled both the
farm ers and those interested in
their w elfare to more definctly '
worti: for w iss» and safer produ,c-'

ness in the farm program has
lieen the lack oi aomprehensive
information regarding corn acre
ages. These are needed that
farm ers, county agents and oth
ers may anticipate over and und

ventures w h icl have heretofore
been the basis of many of thoir

one has better expressed than
Governor McLean the principles
that underlie a sound rural policy.
North Carolia is steadily increas
ing the State school fund, and so
distributing it to the poor eoun-
tias that it is steadily moving to
ward the achievement of an ideal.
The Constitution now requirea m
yearly minimum of sia months for
its schools; but the State averaee
(which five yeara ago was l«ls
thea five months) has beea aetu-
ally brought up to seven, whila
in the best counties it is eight
menthe and In many places aine
months.
Governor McLean hae no re
grets for the energy and c6urage
with which money has been bor
rowed and spent by the State and
its ^ubdvisions. But be thinks it
well now to call a halt and enter
upon a period of careful adjust
ment and economy. Ho states
convincingly tho argum ents' for
unifying the State board and ser
vices, and for tran'aforming tho
anomalous mechanism of State,
County and local effective and

In Detroit,' Garfield Bean applied
for a license ;to mary Josephine
Fein, Being short in finances, he
asked for the license on time, the
customary dollar to be paid on the
following day. The request waa
granted by an obliging clerk.
When asked why he did not
postpone his m arriage until he at
least had. money enough to pay
for the license. Bean is reported
to have repUed that he was w il

Novv; I met a good many folks,
old and young, who thlnk it is' nn
evidence ..of intellectual freedom
and superiority to question the
jBible and tho existence of God
and the, divinity of Jesus Christ.
I despute the right, of no man nor
no woman to either opinion, but
why be a fpol.and believe that we
have not pre-eminence or prom
inence over the beast?
- It don’t make any difference
whether you believe, it or not—
you big goose I—it‘ is true any way.
Don’t be an idiot and sit out there
«nd say, “I don’t believe it.” -You
w ill go to hell whether you be-,
lieve it or not. ,
The greate.9t good can bo had
from anything by using it, for tho
purpose for which it wns intended.
A loaf of bread and a brick may
look a great deal alike, but when
you, attém pt to make them change
places you w ill get ih trouble.
One is for my house and,the'other
to build up my! body.
; The young people go to: schbpl,
go to .college, go to the university,'
to learii pf;-phllbsophy,;air pf, n
all of science, all of literatm ’e and
yet they know- nothing I'bf; the'
Bible, And all jtho; l’est! will;>npt

the Bible, Ávhilé iï you know what
is in 'the -onb Book arid'Obey that
it w ill save yoii if ‘yoii .dori'tikriow
beans about any; of the otiiers,!'
And yet I ' suppose there aro
some people looking in my ! face
■thtttiravTnri^
in -ten yearS; ; Then, don’t blame
.God if you: wake up in heU ! when
ybii hayo been such* a fool and

at all I,
Men hav(T been b'urned r^t the
stake; they have been thrown to
tho wild beasts in the Coliseum;
they have been suffered to. rot in
prison, for no crime other than
believQ what the Bible taught and
living, what it taught and having
had a copy of it in their' posses
sion.
Always hire the best there is in
the world. That is what we want,
and there is only one Book that
can tell you t^e truth about eter
nity. Down yonder in the records
of that book if it says tliat your
title is good, go to bed and go to
sleep, and you don’t need to listen
to the. sneers of anybody else.
That is final and when the Bible
tells you, you are on the road to-
heaven, then don’t worry about it;
,. You have got l:o begin at the be
ginning of anything, whethei’ it-
is a trade, knoweldge, or religion;-
and see how you w ill come out.
The Bible is written, it says, that
men, might believe. You can put
that to the test, but God is no
something to try—we know what

Sinco our last weeks’ article I
have béen informed that Mocks

in the public, school next season.
Our school board is to be 'com
manded for their'thoughtfulness
of the children and young people

w ill he requlvod to. secure the

Toneality
The most important thing about
music is, "How it sounds,” in fact
it is not music unless it has that
harmonic sound or tone. There
are various kinds of tones,, vis:
a whinning style of speaking,
sound of a bell, étc., but wo wish
to' refer to tonPvas a m usical pitch'
that pitch of tone that sticks the'
driimtoi; the é{U’ in such.'a way
that it sets . the auditory nerve
in action which transm its it to the
brain -Nvherp; a pleasing -sensation
i'spi’odu'ced. Since: wo have leaijn-,

MockS\'ille, N. C., May 28, 192Í5
That was a sad story whicii
told pf the inbtant death of a
young man named Lomiix, arid the
serious of his future bride, which
took place (it Landis: last луеек.
The young couple had been to a
Landis physician to undergo the
required physical examination for
m arriage license. ■lieaying the ptV
fice of the' physician, the .couple
, drove , down’ street. As they ap
proiièhéd'.the railroad crossing a
freight train was passing. When
the last car: had cleared the cros
sing,-the youing man ' started to
drive' across and an oncoming
passenger train dashed out 'his
life and seriously, if not fatally,
injured his sweetheart. Yes,. It
was a sad story, but might have
been prevented by proper precau
tion on the part of the young car
driver.
I The Asheboro Oourlcr quotes
-Pr. .William J. Mayo, the great
8<3rgeon. of world wide fame as
having made the statement that
‘fsince the .'Civil W ar medical
'science has added 12 years to the
' t verage length ' of human life,”
and ,thi? 1Й no doubt tri'ie. Tho
Asheboro paper then goes on with
this interesting comment;
‘‘Medical scie)ice is,i-emoving

ing to Dr. Mayo. It is now poB'.
siible for doctors tb;ascbrtain just
how much shock the human sya-
tem, w ill withstand and ho>v much

m any years ago, . for instance, 26
per cent of( thbse, who were ope
rated onfor c'aiicer of the stomach
'died from tlie operation', now only
5 per cent die.”
У erily. the. words of the inspired
w riter are proving true; ■ "Happy
is the man. that flndeth, ^isdom ,
and the man that gettetH ‘under

W ill our Congressftian, Hon. W.

position in his race for renomlna-

t) be the report. But who is to
be his ppponent, and who is start-
, i ig the talk No one seems , to
know. Possibly the trouble com
es from the fact that 'some of

feat him because he voted for it.
That’s doubtful. Thia paper was

federal'penitentiary was the next
stop for Gaston B. Means, investi
gator extraordinary and a central
figure in the senate Daugherty, in
vestigation, when he left Wash
ington tonight in custody of a
United States deputy marshal to
begin a two-year sentence.
Means, after an unsuccessful,
attempt to have set aside his con
viction in New 'York of conspi
racy in connection with illegal
whiskey withdrawals, surrender
ed to the D istrict of Columbia
supreme court Tuesday and ask
ed to. be permitted to begin his
sentence immediately. In granting
his request, the department of
justice decided not to press at
this time another Indictment pend
ing against Means .here, charging
forgery.' ' ■ V
The prospect of a two-year re
fuge fro^ the excitement of the
numerous court actions in which
Means, was involved peemed not
to be a particularly bitter ono to
him when he stepped aboard the
train tonight with the deputy
marshal and one other prosiner.
His custodian was áaid.to have
received instructions not to sleep
until Means form ally was «ur»

It may not be apparent to rural
districtts, where interest on mon
ey usually is- aijout' 6 -or 7 per
cent, but the .United 'States now
has the low’est .money rates, in
the world. In this country the
rediscount rate at which'member
banks may borrow money from
tho Federal Reserve Banks.of Now
,Yprk, Boston, Philadelphia, Cleve
land and San Francis'c6 ia 3 1-2
cent. In the seven other ^•esorve
bank districts the rediscount rate
is 4 per cent. Comparing these
rates with sim ilar, interest charg
es of central banks in foreign
countries it is shown that Switz
erland and the Netherlands have
a 4. per cent rate; England and
Spain, 5 per cent; Sweden and
Belgium, 6 1-2 per cent; Italy,
Roumania, and Jugoslavit, 6 per
cent; Norway, 6 1-2 per cent;
France and Denmark, 7 per cent;
Japan, 8.03 per cent; Poland and
Bulgaria, 10 per cent; Hungary,
11 per cent/ and A ustria, 13 per
cent, J
There arc many reasons why
money has a low er’ rate in the
United States than elsewhere.
There is a larger supply of gold
here and, more important condi
tions are moi-e stable and invest
ments safer here than in any

he found values by looking for

TRIBUTHO AMERICAN
WAR DEAD IN FRANCE
Coal Glen, May 30.—The offi
cial death list of the explosion in
the Carolina Coal company’s mine
hero Wednesday late today was
placed at 63 and the mine was de-
cliired fi’ee from bodies by Bion
И. Butler, vice president of the
company, after the mine had been
subjected tb a careful search'and'
exploration into all workings by
expcrta pf the UnUed States ЬиГ'.
№11 of mine«,
The body of Joe Hudson,'recov
ery of which has held up tho offi
cial declaration i’or about 18
hours, was found this'afterftoon to
have ()eeh removed about 2 o’clock
this morning and recorded a!j un-
icUmtificd." This body was about
760 feet from where ho hod been
,nt workiiii the bottom of the mine.
In every instance tho . bodies
и'сге found some distance away
from theii' workings, showing that
they had made dashes for safety
before being caught by tho (\eaclly
afterdamp or ciirbon-monoxide;
Hudson’s body was so badly mu-
lllated that the .hurried examina
tion at- the tompórary» morgue 'lit
Uic mine failed to reveal his iden
tity, and, owing td. the advanced
Hlage of ,;(lecompositioh. It was
rushed to n Sanford undertaker. ;
At the latter place today, dozeiia
of niinei'i) viewed this body and all
were unanimous in t)ie statement
thnt it was that of liudaon.
This accounts fdr ovdry peraon
who has been m issin g, or was
thought to have been in tho mine.
Until the final sweep of the mine
was made late today, though spec
ulation ran rife as to the number
of bodies, supposed to be in the
mine. Some said two, others as
high as five.
Tho bureau of mines cur loft the
mine to be attached to a north
bound Seaboard train at 10:30 to
night; One dr two of tho experts
will remain over for two or three
days to get the mining crews fair
ly started on thoir work df re
habilitating tiie mine. '
Whether tho company w ill I'P-
sume operations has not, been de
finitely learned. Some express
the opinion that the company has
boon hard hit by the, disaster and
believe that it w ill not be able to
weather the storm. ,
This ;of course is the purest
Hpeculation.Vas only; time, can tell
whether 'it w ill - be reoperied. or
.not.^

bound Se'aboard. train for; Alaba
ma, one of them being draped in
American óolors, dehot;ing, that he
was a former service man.
Rescue operations were tempor
arily halted today and, all .crews
failed from the mines sd that; the
pumps ;could be started- a.iid,; the
w ater. which had accumulatbd : at
the bottom of the'slope could bd
removed. Many believed th.at the
body of Hudson lay in' this water
but identification by his friends
removed this doubt.
Shortly after noon the mine ex
perts began their careful and
painstaking- exploration which re-;
suited, in the assertion at about 4
o’clock that no more bodies re
mained in the ill-fated mine.

'Walk Among Us Every Day Only Awaiting
Thp Call To Come. Needless Illiteracy
Among Our Young People
The age of heroes has not yet passed away. All around ua there
walk every day heroes as brave and aa daring as ever saw in light
of day. We néver know, whom they are, however, until the occasion
for the sane and manly dispiay of that heroism presents itself. B,nt
practically every great catastrophe develops'a hero. And most usual
ly he is the fellow whom no one had expected as being a hero. As a-
rule he is not the so called “dare devil” that we soe so much of in
our everyday life. He is generally some quite, cautious, sane per
son, whose reaUmetal has never been tested and whom none would
suspect as being brave enough to act the hero’s part when human
life may be at state. He is not the fellow who needlessly risks in
jury without cause and without reason. That kind of fellow is usual
ly the “boy” who losea his nerve in the presence of calam ity. But
he is the sane, normal, cautions cool hearted fellow who w ill not
needlessly tako a chance. But when necessity presents itself, when
by tailing a cliuiice there is hope of saving-humrôv-lifcrlhe depth of
his soul are stirred, his mind is clear, he Icnows just what to do and
he has the nerve to follow his nol)ler impulse, hence the hero comes

pyev, Upvvhrd Butler was the mind superlntpndbnt, and he knew that
more than fifty of his faithful Ond;brave fellow workers woi'd down
there and ho knew that they were either killed or in groat danger
of being pmothored to death by tlio foul i:ases i'e|oased from tho
bowels of the earth. With cloiir heads and brave libarts and steady
nerves, therefore, Butler and his companion, Mr. Richardson imme
diately faced what they mu.st hove known meant jjrave danger, to
say thd loast. Down into dark shaft they, sped, and when more than
1000 feet they found six'o f tho men still alive, but so stunned that
they weVo holplesB. ■ 'Phey asaiatod them to what they thought to
bo ,a place of safety. Then starting back to the surface for further
help, they had gone only o short distance when another explosion
occurred. . At 0 atill greater hftKzard, Butler rushed back into what
sbemed certain death, with the hopo of again rescuing his men. He
waft.pyercome by, the gas, and, but for the daring of hia companion,
Riciiardson, hb would have lost his own life. The six men wore not
saved, but Howard Butlor and Joe Richardson are known to bo horos.
'Pheir deed of daring merits, and doubtless w ill, be rewarded by a
Carnegia Medal, for who could display a greater spirit of true hcjrlsm
than did Howard Butler and Joe Richardson on this occasion?
No, the day of hero’s is not past. Thank God, we have them
scattered all over this great state, only awaiting for the call which
w ill bring the mto the limelight. But it takes a great catastrophe to
call out the nobolest and the bravest in men and women.
“There is no excuse nowadays, os there might have been decades
ago, for any boy or girl to reach the yeors of young manhood or
young womanhood withoiit knowing at least how to read and write,”
says Miss Beatrice Cobb in her paper, the Morganton Ncws-Herald.
“And yot,” sho goes on, “it is surprising that a little inquiry will
bring one face, to face with the fact that there are numbers of il
literate, young people.” Continuing on the some subject, the well'
known and able womari editor aays: ;
The notion was shocked by the setatistics on illiteracy that -vyero
revealed when our young men word, examined for m ilitary servido
and one of the good things coming out of the w ar was the apparent
determination that such conditions bo remedied. In North Carolina
we hove gojie ao far aa to hovo lawa compelling school attendance
betweeri .certain ages. ;j!!ven at that,' howoyoiv it is not an uneom-
