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.

“Statues” is a good game to
test nerves and to seé how long
active children can keep one pose.
The players choose the positions
they want to take and then .be
come as still as statues. One play

make the others laugh. The one

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,

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

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.;

One of the' worst signs of the

men in connection with robberies,

The fact that suit has been
brought by the government
again&t more than'fifty oil com
panies in the United States,
charging them with violation of
the Anti-Trust Law, shows that
these big concerns have suspect-
i ed that the government would
"wink atV their unlawful con
duct. It is a great reflection on
the Coolidge administration and
doubtless the government would
not hàve,taken notice but forthe
fact that the democratic party
got in behind the crboks in the
late oil investigation and; since
that; time conditions' have been
next to intolerable for those in
this.; country who believe that
they were entitled to special pri
vileges at the expense of the
.average citizen of the United
Stetès, The bésî^hing to do to
clean up these crooks is to elect
a democratic administration that
will 'do like the'Wilson admini
stration that will dojlike the Wil

and their henchmen out of Wash
ington.
. "I caiit admit the accusation,”
S£^ aehatof Walsh in his keynote
aduïess to the Democratic Na-
tiohal. Convention last week,
“that'the American people are
indiffereivt to the corroding in
fluence of .^ corruption in office,
high or low, but we shall see.
They are on trial".
There is absolutely nrfquestion
but that, as Senator Walsh said,
the American people are on trial.
If the corruption ahd crookedness
in office which has been uncover
ed and exposed since the repubii
cjin administration took charge
in Washington, in March 1921, is
not , enough to shock American
sense of decency, to the extent
that the republicans will be oust
ed this fall, then it wili begin to
look like we are imfit to govern
ourselves. The democratic party
is .roasting the Coolidge admini-
s' rtaion foi" its unscrupulous me
thods, and that is not all. The
LaFollottè wing of thé republi
can party is no less charitable
toward the old line republicans.
In fact some of the gravest
charges brought against the "old
guard” have been brought by the
progressive wing of the republi
can. party itself. This would
certainly indicate that it is time
to have a house-cleaning in
Washington, and we believe the
Ainerican people are going to see
to it - that this is done at the
November election.
Sheriff Walker Adds An

. About the strongest stand that
we have yet seen taken by a
newspaper in this state in behalf
of Frank D. .Grist for Commis
sioner of Labor and Printing is
that of the Rockingham Post Dis-
patch. That paper says:
“Prank_D. Grist, led the other

Well, some folks may say that
Davie county has no sheriff, but
we stoutly confirm that “We Do
Haye A Sheriff”, and a real
sheriff too. But nevertheless we
are willing to leave this to the
good, fair-minded people of the
county that read the county pap
er, to say whether or not we have
a sheriff; not a man who just
dmws the salary, and one who
sits in the sheriff's office, but we
mean to say that we have a she
riff that GOES OUT AND GETS
'EM. We try to keep in close
touch with the doings of our
sheriff so that we may tell our
readers the whole truth about
this important office, ahd we will
not say that he has done every
thing that he could have done,
but we ask our readers to watch
the reports from this office, and
then judge for yourself as to his
fitness and ability to fill this of
fice. And to be fair about the
matter, we will say that all the
kicks that have come around
about the sheriff are coming from
people who do not read the paper
that gives the proceedings of the
sheriff's office, and also from
those who just have the “hear
say” and are always glad to hear
something that will lead the
pu blic to criticise our present of
ficers. We want to tell you again,
that the officers of any county
are just what the people want
them to be; they must have your
support before they can be the
right kind o£ officers. Are the
officers of Davie countiy getting
the proper support of the citizen
ship of this county? We will
leave this matter fdr your consid
eration also. We are making this
statement in ' order that the
good people of Davie may not be
mislead by the false reports that
the enemies ot Sheriff Walker
are circulating over the county.
These reports are onesided re
ports and are not true, and you
will find it so if you will just in
vestigate a little. Last Friday
the Post-Dispatch for one is glad
to give him its support.
His opponent, M. L. Shipman,
is a good man, but the office
should not necessarily be hia by
perpetuity.
Are you going to do your part, or
are you willing to believe these
false reports without investigat
ing them.

County Sunday School Con
ventiori, July 19th and 20th
•It is announced by oflicers of
Davie County Sunday School As
sociation that the annual County
Sunday School Convention will
be held on Saturday and Sunday,
July 19 and 20, in the Methodist
Church, Advance.
Taking a prominent part on the

Well known Sunday School work
ers: Miss Daisy Magee, Raleigh,
Children’s Division Superintend-
entNorth CarolinaSunday School
Association and Mr. D. W. Sims,
Raleigh, General Superintendent
North Carolina Sunday School
Association.
In addition to these outside
speakers a number of the most
prominent pastors and Sunday
School Superintendents in the
county will take part in the var
ious sessions of the convention.
In charge of the arrangements
for the convention are T. I.
Caudell and Brice P. Garrett,
President and Secretary of the
County Sunday School Associa
tion. These officers are request
ing the co-operation of all pastors
and superintendents and other
Sunday School leaders in the ef-
Tort to fiiake the convention a
success.
Following a plan started at the
county convention last year, the
officers have announced that
again this year ä pennant will be
presente^ to the Sunday School
having present in the convention
the largest number of representa-
';ives sixteen years of age, and
over, according- to the number
miles traveled. The number
of representatives from each
Sunday School will be multiplied
by the number of miles from that
church to the Convention church,
and the Sunday. School having
the largest total will receive the
pennant. It is expected that
there will be much friendly com
petition for the pennant among
the Sunday Schools of the coun
ty. The Sunday School with
which the convention is held,
and others within one mile, will
compete forthe penriant.
Father Charged With
Trying To Burn Baby
Thomasville, June 27, — City
Recorder Elliot had to face a
new problem today, or an unu
sual situation, when Charlie
Mitchell, of the Amazon mill
section of town was before the
court 00 the charge of an attempt
to burn his own child, a itwo
'months’-old baby.; the wife and
mother prosecuting.
According to the testimony,
Mitchell was out of humor with
his wife, Mrs. Lottie Mitchell,
when he placed some baby cloth
ing on the floor in the room, laid
the child on the improvised pal
let, saturated the clothing with
kerosene oil, struck a match as if
in the act of setting fire to the
ittle heap, when the wife blew
out the flames. He pushed his
wife to one side and quickly
struck another match, but she
succeeded in in extinguishing it
before it was applied, according
to the evidence, several other
like attempts were thwarted by
the same means.
Mitchell admitted the charge
as to making the the pallet, plac
ing the child thereon, and strick-
ing the matches, but stated that
tie had no notion of firing any
thing with the matches, his
ntehtion only being at the time
to “get even" with his wife, who
he claimed, had aggravated him
to the point of desperation, “Not
just once, but many times.” Mrs,
Mitchell told of other cruelties by
the father to the child at other
times, citing one particular in
stance when he caught up the
‘‘ttle one and pitched it over into
another bed, which act she re
garded as exceedingly dangerous
at least to the tender limbs of
one so young.
The judge was informed that
the man charged with the crime
“may not be mentally bright, ”
that date, L. .h), L<mautt, ■ I ^j^gton.galem, N. C. Tax Collector. f
however, testihionyinhis defence
showed that he was at work reg
ularly in the mill, and that he
was supporting his \yife and bis
mother, who lived in a home near
by. It appears that Mitchell, at
thè continuation of thè episode
in the home which led up to is
suing a warrant for her husband
by Mrs, Mitchell, picked uj) the
child and delivered it to his
mother, or the child’s grandmoth
er,^ whereupon the wife and
mother, went over to the home
of her aunt. The mother did
not remain separated from her
child many hours.
The judge sent Mitchell to the
county roads for a period of five
months, after weighing every
thing in connection with the ease.
No publicity, local or otherwise
had been given the case untii the
appearance^ of the parties in
court todayl and as the attendance
at court was rather slim, the
news of the near tragedy-is only
gradually breaking around town
at a late hour this evenig.
Policeman Younts took Mit
chell in the city’s car to Lexing
ton this afternoon, where Shereff
Talbert assigned him to the pro
per guards.
Chief Kearns was called by
Mrs. Mitchell at a late hour
Thursday evening and went to
the scene, stating to the court
that Mrs. Mitchell said Mitchell
had used one of his own coats in
making the pallet, but he had
burned that afterwards, suppos
edly to conceal his deed as much
as possible.
Mitchell stated- to the chief
that he was partly reared in
Thomasville, but that he had
lived at other places. The child is
a boy and their only child.

Moeksville Won: À Fast*
(Game.From Fork Church
The Moeksville Babies won a
fast game of baU from the Fork
Church team, Saturday afternoon
at Sunset Park, the score being
6 to I.
“Twisty” Casey, on the mound
for the locals pitched á good
brand of ball allowing only four
scattered hits, one in the 1st, 3rd,
6th and 9th. As this was hiu
first game of the'season, we think
he deserves much praise.
In fact all of the Babies played
air-tight ball except in the fourth
frame when Ward missed an easy
fly, (31ick and Lanier also made
one error each in the same inning
which let in the only run the
visitors got. The Babies are all
young, and play good ball, and
should have the support of every
citizen in the.town.
Deadmon on the mound for the
visitors pitched a very good
game, allowing 8 hits and walk
ed 2. His team-mates played
good ball, except in two innings,
when they madi several errors
behind him. Fork- has a good
team and had won thirteen games
without a loss. That is good for
a country team.

FRIDAY, JULY 4th, the Babies

hard fought game as both teams
are very anxious to win. Come
out and help the boys win. You
don’t have to go out of town to
see a good ball game—just come
out to Sunset Park. If you are
married bring your wife, if not
bring your sweetheart or a girl

FREE. In other words, ladies
will be admitted free if accom

We doubt whether or nat tl|ère is another town the size of

Our graded school building for the lower grades will measure up
to many towns much larger than this and our high school build
ing is sufficient for, several years to come. It is a structure,^hat,
will attract the attention-of visitors and will impress, diit'side
people with the fact that Mocksville people know the importance
of putting first things first. Of course, all thèse, things cost mon

of its youths, will eventually push forward in every other way,
not only educationally, but industrially, and economically.

New York, July 7.—The dele
gates from the Southern states
appear to be more exercised over
the treatment accorded them by
the galleries than over the in
creasing expenses. Gov. Camer
on Morrison, of North Carolina,
13 particularly concerned over the
matter. .
“The South will not soon for
get New York people for insulting
them in-the Democratic conven
tion,’’he was 'quoted by the New
York Woi-ld as saying. ‘‘South
ern people have bought millions
of dollars’ worth of goods from
New York annually for years.
They never expected to have their
wemon jeered at because they
were from the South. Our del
egation is on one of the back tier
seats and the language hurled at
us from the galleries could not
have come from any other than
a tough element. The New York
delegates had no part in this.”

'■With a hard surface highway leading through Mocksville-all

Mocksville and Lexington, with a bridge over the Yadkin River,
this town is going to be on ^e map; It is going to open uij a hew
field of trade for Mocksville businessVmen, if ,they go after it.
On the other hand, by placing Davie; county p,eople in easy .reach
of other merchants, it is going to mèan’the death of Mocksville
business', if our business men do not rise to the situation. These
fine highways and bridges make it possible for Mocksville busi

they will mean the paralization of this lown, almost entirely. It
is simply up to Mocksville to say how this shall be..
If LaFollette decides to head a ithii'd patry, and at the time \ve
write this it appears very certain that he will, then the democrats
are almost sure to win. LaFollette will,largely get (his.strength
from the republican ranks. There is positively no hope of him
being elected, however, but he will pull enough of the voters away
from Coolidge that he will cause the/defeat of the regular repub
lican candidate, and we shalLsee arepetition of 1912.
The republican majority was so overwthelmingly large in 1920
that the bosses evidently thought all’opposition was buried so deep
that it would riot show itself again in a quarter of a century. The
big interests believed that they were in the saddle for next
15 or twenty years. However, they misjudged the tèmpér of tihe
American peo^e, and their conduct was so greedy that the public
conscience was gorged-within the first four years. The result is
that the republican party has, defeated, itself, and the hand-writ
ing is now on the wall for tIKat organization in 19,24. Coolidge
will never be re-eléctèd. : ; - ' ; ’

$1^,275.00 is now being admin
istered for the siifterers in- over
eighteen Southern commities by
Red Cross workers. Homes 'are
being rebuilt, crops replanted,
and pictures of ruin and desola
tion tarnsfomed again into scenes
of normal life and properity.
To local relief efforts the Red
Cross contributed funds and
trained vvorker.s, giving commun
ities the benifit of its experience
in over 400 other disasters}.
“AU that relief can do is at
most little,” said Joseph Logan.
Southern Red Crosj manager.
“Following these disasters the
Red/Cross fries to help these
peopje to help themselves, and
the courageous spirit in which
tiiey have turned to the .task of
rebuilding flieir liomes and re-
■plariting their ruined crops is a
credit to the South.”

New York, July 3,-“Tell the

today by members of' the Nort£| -
Carolina delegation, who cajaCi
instructed for McAdoo, one mehii*
ber of Which so far strayed firdin
the family group as to caat' his
votes for Smith on Tuesday. -
The other members of the de
legation were incensed,-it Is un
derstood, over the one desertion,-
but when the culprit relented
and promised to be good the
rumpus subsided here.
Telegraph wires are busy be
tween New York and North Caro

flashed back home that Smith
had received one of North Caro
lina’s precious votes. Mrs. PaU
mer Jerman, a delegate and
president of the North Carolina

serted today that this telegram
was only one of SOO'or so receiv

folks over the fact that four
members of the delegation have
broken away from the unit rule,
although '- the delegation came
with instructions that it should
remain firm for McAdoo until he
has been eliminated.
“No, we won’t say who was
the man who cast theSmith vote, ’ ’
said Mrs. Jerman, but we do con
firm the receipt of the telegram
about changing it or his resi
dence. In fact, we have received
at least 500 about,the waiy fout.oi

wempst hand it to him tháfhe is

His unquestioned honesty.coupled
with his superior intellect make
him one of-the .greatest powers
in American political life today.
Nopiesident of the United States
hais ever ¡ been more powerful
than; Bryan is as a private citizen^
His influence upon .the political
life of America has been more
far-reaching than any man who
ever lived, Lincoln, Roosevelt
and.Wilson,net excepted.
Its wonderful what strange
things happen sometimes. Last
week during one of thè ‘storchy
. sessions of the Democratic Na
tional Convention, Chrm. WalaK
was rapiping vigorously for order
when hia gavel flew off the handle
and struck, a New York’ delegate
in the head causing concussion of
the brain. It must,have been ex
citing times in the democratic
convention hall about that time.
Quite different-from what it was
when Paul was preaching on one
occasion: and a man went to sleep
and fell out of a window, killing
himself. Both were- strange
coincidence.“». But while a' dele
gate got his head cracked with a
flying gavel at the New York
convention, we venture the as
sertion, that there was no such
thing as one going to sleep and
falling out of a window.
The: Crusader, a publication
edited by Mr, E. H. Morris of
Mocksville, made its appearance
this week. It is a four coliimn,
four page publication and. is de
voted to the ' "interest of good
government,” The editor throws
down.theigauntlet to the “ini
qaitous whiskey traffic,” in his
opening editorial, and in his sec
ond editorial makes,the following
very, snappy statement regarding
local, politics:
"When the organization of any
political party hecomos rotten,
currupt or completely dominated
and controlled by a set of men
who are useing it as a means of
promoting and satisfying their
own ends and selfish desires, its
time for the good members of the
party to take charge, reorganize
and give the old machine a gen-
•teel cleaning. It looKs like a hcpe
•jess case and is without doubt an
unpleasant job but good govern
ment and the general welfare
demand it, Thers is work for
the good womanhood of the par
ty in Davie-and I assure them
that they will have the help and
co-operation of the good men of
the party.
The Crusader is full of snap
and pep from: cover to cover,
and while all may not agree with
Mr. Morris in his views, yet the
first issue is intensely interesting
.to iay the least.
DAVIE CIRCUIT
(By Rev. Jim Green.)
The meeting at Oak Grove is
postponed till September because
farmers are so busy in crops.
Thursday July 17th, we plan
to begin at Salem. .
c There will be preaching at
Concord next Sunday at 11 a. m.
and át Liberty at 3 p.' m.
. At a meeting of the committee
on arrangments. foi the Old Folks
Singing to be held at Center, vie
had a very .iViendly but frank
discussion of ¿hé matter. How
ever we very sincerely disagreed
as to the day. They prefer Sun
day and the writer believing it is
,\Virong in tiie sight of God to úse
His Sabbaths for such gather
ings, which could easily be’held
oh Saturday and knowing such
are very hurtful toall theclitirch-
es and Sunday Schools in the
surrounding vicinities by drawing
the people away from their places
the writer therefore, kindly yet
openly and sincerely differs from
them in his convictions and choice
of days and hereby wishes to an
nounce his . disapproval of s-uch
occasions on Sundays anywhere
in^ the county Or elsewhei-e, iind
toisay that since they'have chosen
to have their occasion on Sunday,
I I cannot approve or attend,
apjjeal to the conscience of each
individual, to make the matter a
matter of conscience in the fear
of ;God' and act accordinglyi We
will soon all be at the “Bar of
God” in judgment, it will then
not be sentiment, and what we
merely like or what ; the crowd
clamors for but our “conscience
will then excuse or condemn us’^’,
John 5-16i Read it. “Sin unto
death”. What' is it if not a sin
against light and conscience and
against the “Holy Ghost.”
Bet .eafh one who can consci
ertciously in the fear of,God at
tend and so use God’s day and
thereby approve of such Sunday
occasions and those who do not
approve of - such stay and help
create public sentiment in the
better direction.
This scribe believes heartily in
having such occassions often
where the people can meet and
know each other and I love to
attend them and have part in
them and encourage them but
not on Sundays,
Big gatherings on the proper
days are great to have and let
be known by all that I favor
them.

SHOOT THE JOB W O RK IN I
More Religion And Less
Politics.
(By Latta B. Ratledge) ,
Yes, here we are again right
in the very midst of the "Reviv
al Meeting” season. Many of
our'"Preachers of the Word”are
warking almost day and night
trying to get: their congregations
to see the need of the Wisdom
from on High. They are working
"and pulling and prizing and
gouging” at some of their mem
bers trying to lead them back
into the paths of Heavenly. Wis
dom. They deserve many, many
nice words for all of this and I
am delighted to know about the
good they are doing and wish
to urge them to "continue in the
faith.”
But stop here a minute some
of you good old sisters and broth
ers. what would you do if your
preachers were to announce the
following subject for his text im
mediatly aftei you get through
shouting? "The need of the
world is more religion and less
politics” Why, I’ll bet half of the
congregation would faint. Why
would they faint, did you say?
just simply because people don’t
use thei religion when it comes
to politics. Take this, for in
stance:' “Sister Jane is a very
religious pld HOuf, especially while
the revival is running, and she
always trys to attend Sunday
School and she nevér does iniss a
church conference, thoiigh, some
times-she is unable to attend the
regular preaching,” Well, then
you know sometimes we have a
man running for some office who
gets drunk and runs his car into
a ’phone post and rams into the
bank. Sometimes he is seen
pretty full of the stuff that so
many “Pig haulers” are looking
for. Right here you are; Is our
good old sister Jane going to
walk up to the polls and vote for
such a persan? Sure^ly she will
not. She shouts and "covorts,
ar6ùnd”while the revival is going
ona'n'd'declaresthe is all right
square on the road to Heaven.
She says she is*a great believer
in Prohibition, but if she votes
for a; "Wet” she' shows her re
ligion. Some people seems to
think that this ^“dirty political
tricking” is alright and does not
require an answer when the last
day comeslBut you just wait and
see if hell is not full of “ political
rascals'” Yes, its a strange
thing to me why it is that some
men will be as good as God and
getting better on Sunday mprn-
injg and then go to thé election on
Tuesday morning and vote for
the worst old "liquor, soaked”
rascal the county affords. Is
such real religious works? You
had better lay aside some of these
oldtparty "stand-bys” and
ju3t a'little bit of that little
of religion you "sorter think”'j
you;have; There is too much of,
this voting the Rep jblician ticket,
just because your dad did, andi
the Democratic ticket just be-;
cause you dont like "Oil.” i
When we have just as bad right
in our own "party door.”
We need to rise up to where
we can see things above politics.
Take, for instance, our County
Welfare Officer. Why don’t we
have one today? Ask the County
Board of ■ Education and " the
Board County Commissions and
see what they say. We are
without the splendid work of a
Welfare Oflicer. How well do
we. rrmember the splendid work
of Mr. W, M, Seaford while he
was Welfajr Welfare Officer. We
surely do need an Officer in this
county. Some'cei'tain commun
ities need one badly. The Wel
fare work is a great work and
should be kept on' higher ground
than "political trickery.” Use
some good religious ideas when
making such, appointments and
see if it doesn’t "do us good and
help us too.” This officer tends
to up build the moral condition
of our county and is so badly
needed. .

forced, by the boiling of the "po-

D EV ELO P FLESH
Mighty near all fish and meat
and vegetable dishes to have
white, sauce or roux. Polks
make it different ways, but I’ve
found a few good rules that never
fail me. My standard recipt is
2 tablespoons of butter. 2 table
spoons of self rising flour and a
cup of sweet milk. I stir , the
butter in a sauce pan until melted
then add the flour and blend it
thoroughly with the butter. The
liquid is added last and then the
mixture is,stirred constantly until
it is thick enough. I’ve found
that if the milk is hot it will blend
quicker with the hot tutter and
flour and the sauce will be done
sooner. If you want brown sauce
the butter should be stirred until
it is well browned, the flour add
ed and browned, too, before add
ing the milk. A little more flour
has to be used for brown sauce
than for white. My foundation
recipt can be used for gravies,
using a meat stock for the liquid.
Tomato sauce is made the same
way, using tomatoes as the liquid
litical pot?” No! No! You see
how far we have come, don’t
you? We have come a long ways,
but oh the miles yet to travel are
long and many. Think back just
a few years and see if you rem
ember the Deputy Sheriff who
worked 28 days for Davie County
and recieved the sum of $3.50. so
he told me. During thia time
he destroyed liquor and block
stills in various parts of our
county. Oh, people how we
need more religion in ou/’ affair
less politics..
Listen here! Just so long as
our officers stand back and per
mit, or allow if you like, drunk
men to travel over our highways
and fight on the "public square”
in Mocksville. that is^ just how
long we are going to see such.
Warn them with 80 days in the
"brick house” or pull them pret
ty heavy and the they will take a
warning. Oh, just I’emember
the big "field trials" they had
near a certain town last fall.
Did anybody get drunk? Did
anybody fight? . Did anybody get
arrested? Yes, ten thousand
yggi times I say we need more religion
u!(.'and less politics. Try it and see how is works.

"I have used Black-Draught when needed for the past 25 years,’’ Bays Mrs. Emma Grimes, of Forbes, Mo. “I' began taking it for a bad case of constipauon. I would get constipatea and feel just mls- ernble—sluggish, tired, a bad taste in my mouth, . . . and soon my head would begin hurting and I would have a severe lick headache. I don't know just who started me to taking
Thedford’s
BLACK-DRAUGHT
but it did the work. It just seemed to cleanse the liver. Very soon I felt like new. When I found Black-Draught во easy to take and easy- acting, I began to use it In time and would not have sick headaches."

McAdoo Resumes Lead On ■'94th
Ballot And Continues Gaining
Smith Regains Power Of Veto And Deadlock
Tightens Grip After Showing Sign Of Break
Madison Square Garden, New
York, Jully 8.-A11 offer by Gov
ernor Smith (0 step aside, if Will
iam G. McAJo . would do the
same, was answered by a Mc
Adoo drive on the floor of the
democratic convention tonight
which added more than a hund
red votes to his column and again
lifted him into first place.
In turn the Smith managers
then rolled up the count of the
candidate past the one third veto
power and the ' deadlock, which
had' shown some signs oi break
ing up early in the day, again
tightened its grip on the conven
tion. ,
John D. Davis'again had re
gained third i>lace wjth, a, total
«eater than he had ever reached
Before. Earier in the day third
place had been held by Senator
RâÎàton,;.of Indiana, but a 'drive
for him was cut short by his un
conditionalwithdrawal from the
race. In an fffort to find a rplu-
tion to the convehfion tangle,
Senator ^Walsh, of Montana, thé
: chairman, brought together late
thi?iafterri6ori'^l)ut ‘they werè
uriàbiè to/. settle upon^ a dark
horse candidate ,who could com
mand a nominating vote. • :
On the ninety-sixth ballot the
leaders stöojd as follows: McAdoo
. 421Î; Smith 359.5; Davis 171.5.
This was an increase for Mc
Adoo, of three and a half, a loss
' of eight for Smith and an increase
of two' and a quarter for Davis.
With both McAdoo anä Smith
managers driving hard to bring
the' strength of their respective
candidates to a maximum, ' the
situation tonight apparently had
reverted to.the old/ hard and fast
deadlock'which has.held the conr
vention liowerléss for more than
a week. The favorite son tide
was • riinning strong in many of
the state delegations, but it had
been turned aside, at least tem
porarily, by the furious resump
tion: of hostilities between the
leaders.
The _94th balloty the first taken
at tonight's session, resulted in
substantial ■ gains for McAdoo,
which again put him into the
leadj largely due to the reton of
states that had been voting for
Ralston. -
The leaders stood as follows on
this ballot:
McAdoo 395; Smith 364.5; Davis
81.75. ■ :
It was a gain of 81 for McAdoo,
a gain of nine for Smith and a
gain of 13 3-4 for Davis.
On this 'ballot Robinson and
Glass got 37 each. It was a gain
of 19 for Robinson and 10 for
Glass.
The leaders stood this way on
the 95th ballot:
McAdoo, 417.5; Smith 367.5;
Davis 139.25; Glass 34; Robin
son 31.
This was ah increase of 2 1 1-2
for McAdoo, of three for Smith,
of 57 1-2 for Davis and losses' of
six for Robinson and three for
Glass.

Well, folks, we jest gotter hand
it it to that Walker boy, for he
is not like the most of us when
are when July de fourth comes
round.
On last Friday night just after
spending a Glourious Fourth of
July in the quiet little city of
Mocksville, Sheriff Walker and
deputies journeyed down to the
South river section to see what
was going on down there, and
upon their arrival they soon dis
covered that some of the folks
folks v.'ere celebrating in the
wrong way. Soon- afterwards
they returned to Mocksville with
a small quantity of "moonshine”
but as the amount was small, and
in order to make^their trip worth
while, they brought Lee Jarvis
and Odell Horn back with them.
Jarvis did hot like our city and
deposited $500 bond for his ap
pearance in court to answer a
charge of ‘‘bootlegging, while
Horn is being held in jail under
the same charges.
Now, who will come out in pub
lie and say "we have no sheriff.”

But you, Mr. Merchant, must go-after it if you are to
get your share. The people of this community must
live, and to live they have to buy what you have to |
sell. If you were the only man in the world selling your |
line you might get by without advertising it, but you |
are not. This being true, it is equally true that people |
will go to the. merchant who tells them about his mer
chandise, his prices and service, rather than to the mer
chant who has so little pride in his business that he seems
afraid to advertise what he has for sale. -
We can help you to advertise your merchandise in an
effective, business-bringing manner. Let us show you
how.

/11. .Jesu i Tarrylnfl Behind at Jeru
salem (vv, -11-43);-
: Ab thofngb oi twelve years the Jew-
l.sh. child took His place ns a wor
shiper Ih the témple. He wns then considered "n child of the law.” Being conscious or ;h1s ; nils'slon, when His niother- and Joseph were returning
from nttendance at tUe Passover, Jesus
tnrrled :behlhd 'In the temple nud In
quired‘IntoVtlie mennlng of the ordi
nances of God's house. He had an
nlert, eager mind which Inquired after
trjith, especially the truth concerning
;rts Father's house. Hia heart yearned
fjir Hls'iFatlier.
". III. Jesu t Found In the Tem ple (vt.
‘44-4T)i
A\^en H is mother and Joseph hnd
gone some distance on their return
Journey they perceived that Jesus was
not with them and sought tor Him
among thelr kinsfolk and acquaint
ances, Not finding Him there, they re
turned to Jerusalem , where they found
Him In the temple.
1. H e W as Sitting (v. 40). This
shows that He was no passing visitor
or sightseer.' H e wns perfectly at
home In H is Father’s house,
2, He AVas H earing Ute Teachers of
God's Word (V. 46). This shows that
He wag eager to learn God's will.
8, He Asked Questions (v. 46). His
growing mind was tpquiilUve. It more
than received what was taught. It
inquired after truth,
4. He Answered QnesUons (v. 47)..
His answers showed great wisdom,
such as to astonish those who heard
nim , yet we should not surmise that
He was consciously displaying Hi» w is
dom. It was not an exhibition of His
divine wisdom, but the expression of
the workings of a perfect human mind
suffused by the Holy Spirit,'
IV. Mary’« Complaining (vv. 48-SO).
.She remonstrated with Him for His
itelmvlor. To this He replied In dlg-
nined, yet tender m anner. He made
no apology, showing that H e was more
than the son of M ary. God was His
Fatiier. Though M ary did not under
stand these things, ns a wise mother
■:he kept them Iti her heart,
V. Jesus’ Obedience (v. 61).
Tiiough He wns fully conscious of
His divine being and mission he lived
a life full of fllial, obedience, thu.s
teaching us that obetlience to parents
Is plensing to God and a duty which
will be discharged faithfully by those
who liave the Spirit of Christ.
VI. Jesus' Development (v. 52).
1. Mental. H e Increased In wisdom.
Although the divine nature was united
with the human, the human was left
free to develop as a normal human
inlnd.
2. Physical. He Increased In stature. This shows that His body developed acoording to the laws of a normal hu-
nuui. ' ■
3. Spiritual. H e Increased In favor
with God and man. A s His mind In
creased, and H is apprehension of God
became more full, the Divine Being
could more fully express Himself
through Him and, as tbe perfect life
wns lived, mgn c<mld recognize in Him
superior qualities and therefore their
heurts would open to Him.

Staamer M ar M edjterraneo loaded with cotton shipped by North Carolina
Cotton Grov/era Cooper;itK'ea Asr.oclation to BnemBh, Germ any,
Sailed fi-om W ilmington June 26.-
SHIP 13000 BALES OF NORTH CAROUNA
COTTON TO GERMANY AND RUSSIA
North Carolina Cotton Growers Co-operative Association
Loads Boat At Wilmington With Over. 6,500,000 Pounds-
More Thun $2,000,000 To be Distributed To Ootton,
• Farmers. .
Approximately G,50Q,000 pounds of
eotton grown on tlie farms of mem
bers of the North Carolina Cotton
Growers Cooperative Association packed in something over'll,ООО bales
is enroute from the ports of Wilming
ton and Norfolk to the cotton mills'of
Germnny and Russia, л Tliis cotton was' sold for more than $2,000,000
and this money comes to North СаЛ-
Hna end ■ will be scuttored o.ver the
cotton section in addition to. the
money which has already bee.n ad
vanced on the cotton'by the' Associa
tion. ;The Russian mills will use‘ 1500
bales of this cotton and tlie balance
goes to the cotton mills of Germany.
The cotton for Germany goes to the
port of Bremen while the cottpn for
Russia goes, around the British Isles close to the shores of Norway and
Sweden and will bo unloaded at the
port of Murmansk on the AA'hitc Sea.
In shipping the cotton to'Kiii'ppenn
ports the Association was glad' t!o use
the port of AVilmingtbn as far as ship
ping facilities could be had and 7500
bales was compressed a.t Wilmington and loaded on- the steamer “Màr Mediterráneo.” The rcoiiaindbr of the Ger
man shipment,'oyer 4000 bales, went
through the p^ort of Norfolk, os did
also the shipment of 1500 bales, for
Russia.' This is thé'largest export shipment made by the North-Carolina
Cotton Growers' Coopérative Associa
tion and suggests the possibilities of
the future.
'North Carolina consumes more cotton tlian it produces. With this fact
in piind the management of the Cot
ton Growers Cooperative, Association
endeavors to persuade the farmers of
this StKte to raise'such grades of cotton as can be used in the North. Caro
lina mills, and the' Association strives
to sell as far ai possible North Caro- lina-cotton to North Carolina mills.
In view of the depression in.the cot
ton t»ade and the ctirtailment of mill
production in this State tho Associa
tion had to seek out other markets in
jrder that it might sell its cotton according to the orderly'marketing plan.,
fhe-salcs department succeeded in interesting foreign buyers and has sold
during the present season nearly 25,-
000 bales to go to European , •mills. The success of the sales department' in reaching export buyers is due very
largely to, the Association’s system' of,
urrading and classing the cotton.
Government standards are. followed by the Association graders and class-
;ts who are trained experienced men.
Cotton delivered by the members is-
«:raded and classed immediately after
delivery and the sales department has
prompt information of the number of bales of each grade and staple and is ready to make offerings to buyers.
The cotton cooperative associations of the South working through ''the ATOeriean Cottpn Growers Exchange
.maintains a general^snles'oflfice in At
lanta with an experienced sales mana-
vèr. In addition there-are sales offices in Bremen, Havre, Milan, Barcelona, Rotterdam, and Liverpool and
•me Avill be opened very shortly in Japan.
In order that the niembers of the .\ssociation may get a glimpse of; the
handling of a sale of cotton going to
■jxport points, the method is illiis-
trated with the recent sale to Bremen.
In this injtance Lawrence MacRae,
sales manager of the North Carolina
Cotton Growers Cooperative Association, adviapd the sales ofi'ice in Atlanta
that he was ready to sell o cerlaip
quantity of cotton of certain grades
and staples. Sales Manager Howard
of the Atlanta office immediately cabled sales manager Henry Robertson
at Bremen telling hhn that the North
Carolina Association offered ao much
cotton of a. certain grade und staple.
Mr. Robertson,-.who by the way is recognized as op* of the best cotton men in the whole country, got in touch
with thq..buyers of Bremen and thatsection of Germany and as a result a
r.nie WHB concluded and the news caimo
■jack to tlie Atlanta office- by cable,
uml m turn was confirmed by sales
munuger Ma.cRao at Raleigh. This
clo.ied the sale of the cotton but there
wns Btill much imore. work to be done;
Tire next step was tiie arrangement
for oecari freight and TrafficMunuger J. M. I ortqr got busy and secured car-
p space on the steam.shlp ‘‘Mur Modi-:
terruneo to sail from tlie port of Wil
mington in June.. 7500 bales went to- Bremen on this »teahier and ilr. Por-
f iW M °№er steam-to carry the runiiiin-
der of the shipment to Bremen and to
carry the shipment to Russia. With
the completion of the ocean freight ar
rangements other divisions in the of-’
fice,at Raleigh had their work laid out for them. ■ The Shipping Department
niust get the cotton ready and .it was
up to Warehouse Director Traywick,
to see that proper lists were made of
Loading cotton on steam er Mar Medit
erraneo at V/llmlngton, General
M anager U. B. Blalock acting a i
stevedore.■S' —■ I • ' 'I' " * . .
cotton in various warehouses that the
shipping, department might have the
cotton put aboard trains to be carried
to the porta of-Wilmington and Norfolk, .^ter this cotton : was loaded
and the 'l]ills. of lading issued' by the ■
railroads, Traffic Manager Porter kept
in. touch from day 'to day with ' the shipments in order that the_ cotton
might reach-thei ports in'thne-tb be
compressed to its highest possible den
sity and to be :loadéd,.on :the steamer.
The compressing ;of -'the* cotton is necessary in order that it occupy the
least possible space ,on. the. steam
ship. In shipping by' railroad rates
are based ^ippn weight and in'shipping
b^^ater freight’ rates áre based pri-'
muyily upon space, occupied.* In the
instance, of the. shipment'from Wil-| mihgton; cotton was sent: from the warehouses at Charlotte, Fayetteville,
Dunn, Goldsboro'and Raleigh. Cotton
from thè warehóuses. at Greensb.oro,
Chailotte and Raleigh -went to Norfolk to be loaded at that point.
That the members of the Associa
tion may. tave just a littìe idea of the largeness'-of a shipment of 13,000 bales'
of cotton, remember ttat it takes ap
proximately 430 freight cars to haul
13,000 bales. ^ This means that ordi
narily it -would take ten solid freight trains, to move this :uolton, allowing
forty, cars'to the train. The railroad
companies did . their part fairly well.
Thè Seaboard Air Line in order to ex
pedite the shipment from Charlotte
ran Special trains-to carry the coop-
eraHye Association cotton. For a lit-^
tie while the -managemènt in' Raleigh' was uneasy; It 'seemed as though
some'of the cotton nvould be too late
in getting to t,he port, but with the-
exceptiori of one instance it was all
there in^good time—k>ne shipment had only half a- day margin—pretty close for steamship loading, but it w«nt aboard. - /.
The work of loading a steamship is

-those who have-kept in touch
with the situation have, known
that there was a tremendous un
dercurrent favoring his nomina
tion which was destined ti* sweep
everything before it when .the
first opportunity presentfcd itself.
Following the nomination of
Mr.' »Davis for the’ presidency,
the -convention attempted to
nominate Senator Thomas • J.
Walsh, of Montana, for .Vice-
President, but a letter was read
from him announcing that he
wou|d not accept. An effort was
then made togiye the nomination
. -to. -former-Secretary V ofvAgricul-
ture, _E. T. Meredith, :but he
likewise announced his refusal
to accept the . nomination; At 2
o’clock i Thursday, morning the
nomination for the Vice-Presiden
cy was igivon to Governor Chas.
W. Bryan, of Nebraska, brother
of the great commoner, William
Jennings Bryan. The democrats
will therefore; present Davis and
Bryan as candidates for the pre
sidency and vice presidency at .
the November election. Thus ^
ends one of the mo»t stomy
turbulant political conventions
ever, held in the history ot the
United States. '
Mr. Davis, the nominee, gave

'His running mate,' Governor
■Bryan, is not as generally known
to; thé country as whole, but
there can be no question about
lis character arid his abilities,”
Senator Simmons continued. As
mayor of the city of Lincoln, as
governor of the great state of
Nebraska, he has thoroughly de
monstrated his capacity, his en
ergy and splendid executive abir
lity. 'Among the great governors
of the west; he has achieved an
enviable reputation as a far-see-

and it is doubtful whether any
man could have been selected for

than Governor Bryan.

Siiatered at tTie post office at
Mocksviile, N. C., as secondrclass
matter under the aot of March
8, 1879. •
Mocksville, N. C. July 17 1924
Senator Tlio nas J. Walsh, of
Montana, acted wisely when he
refused to accept the nomination
for the vice presidency. Becom-
. ing a ' candidate for that office
would have postObly"necessitated
bis resignation as Senator and
the position which he occupies in
the United States Senate ia a far
more prominent one than that
which he could haye tioped to
have exercised as. Vice Presideh t
of theVUnited States.
Official returns from the-yari-
. ous counties of the state disclose
the. fact that Frank D. Grist, of
Lenoir, led M. L. Shipman in the
’ ’secoiid primary in the race for
Commissioner of Labor and Print<
.jin>, aproximately two to one.
‘ And yet there , were those who
' raved over the fact that Grist de
manded a second primary a!b he
was entitled to under the law of
the state.
; The expressions of sympathy
'. to President and Mrs. (Toplidge
on the part of hundreds of dém-
. / ocràtic. newspapers throiighout
the country proves conclusively
that while the democrats do. not
; agrée with the chief executive in
all of his political ideas, yet that
they are all interested in his wel-
_ fare as our chief executive, The
' ‘^democratic press has almost uni
versally expressed the same note
of sympathy for the president
upon the loss of his son,, as have
the newspapers of the republican
faiith. There is a wide difference
between the political ideas of the
: democrats and republicans, but
. when the crust is broken and we . get on the real inside, we find
that both both democrats and ré'
publicans are men after all, and
that there is very little difference
in them.
DAVIE COUNTY’S HONOR ROLL
GOLD STAR LADIES
(By the Picnic Basket Committee.) '
Wó thought it would be of interest to the people of Davie
to know the "Gold Star Ladies” who heard the' "Ofphan’s Cry”
iast year and contributed dinner to the picnic and by this contri
bution made it the banner picnic of thé entire 45 years, enabling
us to send over $2,000.00 cash to the orphans.
This list is taken from the books in the order in. which the
baskets were received.- Doubtless, in the rush, we bmmitted some
name. If so it was not intended and we regret it.
We think we will publish the list each year from now on and
will do our best to keep our record correct. Won’t you help the
orphans again this year and get your neighbor to bring a basket
also.' ,
The success of the picnic depends entirely on you. We have
a nice souvenir badge this year which you get when you present
your basket which we want you to wear aiid show the people

.■ • - THE BASKET COMMITTEE.
“What do you think about the
democratic nominees for presi
dent and. vice-president” ? is a
question that one is hearing on
every hand these days. Well, the
Enterprise thanks that the nemi-
ne^ for president is a great big
man. He is one of the ablest
lawyers at the American bar,
and although he has never had
an opportunity in public life, with
the exception of a short term of
Ambassador from the United
■States to Great Brittain, and a
short term in congaess lo display
what ability he may have as a
statesman, yet he may measure
up to the average in ability, even
if he does not prove to be ahead
of the average. Somehosv we
like the battle cry .that he sent
' out immediately upon his nomi
nation. It rings true, in our. op
inion, “There ican be no com
promise with reaction”, he says.
“Liberal principles must and
>111 prevail. This is the mandate
of ths hour and I shall'obey it.”
Mr. Davis mijiht have talked all
day without saying any more
than is embraced in that short
statement. If he follows out that
policy, with vigor, during his
term of office aa president, if
elected, he will measure tip in
every way to the crying needs of

. One of tlie greatest speeches that ever fell from the lips^of
an American, ii'n our humble judgment was that of Former^®‘cre-
tary of Waf» Newtpri.D. Baker, at the national democratic'liori-^
vention iairt weeif. MrTBaker was advocating the adoption of the
League of î^ations’ plank and in reporting for the minority closed
with these sublime words; . \
“I said to you when^;ï started out that no subject on earth was
of so hiuch importance as this to me. ' Why is it ? I am a middle-
aged ni^an and I shall never live to be called upon for any pwfitable
service in any other war, even though'it were to come tomorrow.
I am past the military age. But I haVe memories'-TOn fields in
Europe I closed the eyes of soldiers in . American uniforms who
were dying and who whisperèd to me message to bring to. their
mothers. Italked to them about death in battle and oh, they were
so superb and splendid ; never a complaint, never a regret; willing
tp go if only two ühiilgs might be. One, that mother, might know
that they died bravely, and the other, that somebody would pick
up their sacrifice and build on this earth a permanent templç of
peace in which the triumphant intellect and spirit of man would
forever dwell in harmony taking away from .thé children of other
generations the curse and menace of that bloody fate.
“If I couW have kept those boys in this country I would have
done it. The acceptance of a strange and perverse fate called upon
me who loved the life of the youth, called upon me to come to
your houses and ask you to give me your sons tihat I iwight. send
them into those deadly places; And I watched them and shivered
and shrank with fearful fear and I welcomed the living back, oh,
with such uhutterable relief and joy, and I swore an obligation to
the dead that in season and out, by day and by night j in church,
in political meeting, in the market-place, I intended tolift up my
voice always and ever until their sacrifice were really perfected.
“I have one other.debt—^I beg your patience while I pay:it.
I served Woodrow Wilson for five years., He is standing a^ the
throne of a God whose approval he won and has received. As he
looks down from there I say to him, “I did my best. I am doing it
now. Yo,u are still the captain of my soul. I feel your spirit here
palpably about me.” He is standing here through my weak voice,
l)is presence—not that crippled, shrunken, broken figure that
last saw, but the great majestic leader is standing here, using me
to say to you, “Save mankind, dO America's duty’.”

“I was weak nnd nervous nnd run-down,” -writes Mrs. Edith Sellers, of 466 N. 21st St., East St. Louis, 111. "I couldn’t sleep nights, I was so restless. I felt tired and not In condition to do my--work. I would have such pains In my stomach that I -was afraid I would get down in bed. . . My mother came to see ma and suggested that I use
The Woman’s Tonic
I felt betljpr after my first bottle. I had p. better appetite. It seemed to strengthen and build me up. I am so?'Iad to recommend Cardui or ivhat it did for me. I haven’t needed any medicine since I took Cardui, and I am feeling fine."Nervousness, restlessness, sleeplessness—t h e s e symptoms 80 often ore the result of a weak, run-down condition, and may develop more seriously if not treated in time.If you are nervous and run-do\vn, or suffering from some' womanly weakness, take Cardul.Sold everywhere.E-105_ l

As time removes us further and further away from the anti-
bellum days, and as the old-time Southern slaves become fewer,
the loyalty, love, iind devotion which existed bstween тару South
ern masters and Iheir old slaves become moi^6 and more inter-
c.sting. Some day a Southern poet will rise up to immortalize the
old Southern slave dargey. We say a Southern poet, because none
but a Southerner could appreciate this in the,fullest. This was
mpressed upon u,s most'fbrcSfully by reading an article recentl.v
written by W. L, Hicklin of Spartanburg, telling of the devotion
and'loyalty- dfiairold Southern negro. .The story is such a beau
tiful one, and so full of sentiment that will appeal to the Southern
heart; that we are copying t^4 same in fnll for the pleasure of our
readers. The story is as follows:
Loyal to his “old marster” in death as iii,life; bpnest, gentle
manly and respectful—a tottering monument to the ante-bellum
negro—in George Foster, 77-year-old former slave of Laurens
County, who in recent year.s has become a familiar figure about
the Salvation Army Citadel in Spartanburg. “Uncle George,”
its , he was best known, was a blacksmith-in Hendersonville, N. C.,
for many years, and more receiitTy lived in Greenville.
The old darkey is one of the chief mourners in the departure
of Captain J..M. Satterfield, ccimmanding the Salvation Army post,
who was recently, transferrediwith rank of Adjutant to Charlotte,
N. C. Uncle. George loved'||в officer with the same royalty as
that with which he.sclings,|o the memory of his “old marster.”
Captain Satterfield \yas greatly -attached to the aged negro, and
gave him such'work to'do as he’was able in order that he might
feel he wai5 paying for his mealli and then added §2 a week so he
would not4va'nt for necessitiesr Uncle.George was one of those
who stood aside arid wept as'frlerids bid the officer Godspeed.
Now, out of work, too old and feeble to seek regular^employ-
ment', the aged negro has drifted out upon his own resources. On
his seventy-seventh birthday he appeared at a Church Street home
and asked for work. .Tliere was no work. He. turned to go, but
almost collapsed beforeifi^^reached the bottom step. “Missus, I’m
hungry,” he said^'He waa-taken to the kitchen and a hearty meal

The reccnt substantial rise in
the price of cotton, whc-at and
other farm produce has caused
quite a bit of optiniism among
the farmers of the entire coun-,
try; Not only has it cheered the
farmers themselves but wise
business men who know that
good business is so largely 'de
pendant upon the welfare oi the
farmers arelikewise feeling more
hopeful at the prospect of.better
business in the future,
Authorities tell us to keep a-
way from a chimney and away
from an opeh door or* window
during a severe electric storm.
The wisdom of this advice was
established'last week when dur
ing the course of a thunder storm
twelve persona were assembled
in a room; A negro girl working
f(ir the family was sitting nearest
the chimney, A bolt of listening
struck the chimney and killed
the negro girl instantly. She was
the only one in the room to .suffer
from the shock except one [lady
who was sitting close to her who
was slightly shocked.
The report of a twenty per
•cent shortage in hogs, in a.great
many states, may mean a short-
'aRe of meat. However, since the
report is to the effect that there
is a considerable increase in the
corn crop, it may mean that four
hogs ^yíll be coaxed to yield the
pork,: lard and bacon of five, as
heretofore managed. Otherwise,
somebody, is g^ing to be forced to
make out on four fifths of the
supply they are in the habit of
consuming, even if speculation
keeps hands off and allows supply
‘ and demand to regulate to price.
Better look after the pigs, broth
er farmer, and stock up with an
ample home supply.

There soums to be a general
impression throughout the state
that che shipping project foster
ed by Governor Morrison will be
put across by the snecial session
of the Legislature which meets
early in August,. Favorable an-
ticipalion of this has even caused

true in the case of South Port
located at the mouth of the Cape
Fear River. It is believed that
if the project goes through and
becomes a law South Port will be
one of the North (Carolina seaport

Statesville Minister
Serious Trouble
In
Want Special Law To Pro
tect Trees And Flowers
The special legislature which
convenes Auj'ust 7 will probably
be asked to pass a law making it
a misdemeanor to pluck shrubs
and [lowers along the highways
of North Carolina, according to
officials of Weiitern North Caro
lina Inc., who said that interest
is growing throughout the west
ern section of tho State, paricul-
arly, to have this done.
Depredations of this character
have been more pronounced in
the western part of the state
than in any other because of the
large tourist travel in tho moun
tains, it ' is declared. Unless
something is done by the State,
making it a crime to destroy
flowers and shrubbpry along .the
highways, followed by a cam
paign of education, it is pointed
out that soon all the mountain
flowers will be gone along the
paths of travel.

Schafer, local jeweler, had pa
pers insued this morning against
Rev. 0. W. Alderholdt, former
paster of St. Johns Luthern con-
gression here, starting action for
damage in the sum of $30,000 for
the alienation of his wife’s af
fections, the plaintiff alleging
unlawful relations between the
defendant and Mrs. Schafer.
Mrs. Schafer was organist of the
church of which the defendant
was pastor until his unexpected
résignation a few weeks ago.
Sheriff M. P. Alexander served
the warrant this morning about
10 o’clock on the minister, while
he was engaged in convei'sation
with Mrs. Schafer in her home on
Bell Street, In the preliminary
hearing before J. A. Hartness,
clerk of superior court of Iredell
county, the appearanc bond of
Mr. Aderholdt was placed at
$22,500.
Immedietly after his arrest
this morning Mr. Aderholdt noti
fied hia brother in Hickory and
at 2;30 this afternoon the bond
was made good by the signature
!of D. W. Aderholdt, S. C. Ader-
holt, M. L. Aderholdt and M„
R. Rudisell, prominent Catawba
County citizens.
“I emphatically deny the whole
thing,” said Mr. Aderholdt to,a

this afternoon.

It’s the kind it pays to buy, too, for even if the first cost is a
littla more than the cheaper grades, the extra labott-required
in using cheaper lumber more than makes up,the difference.
The complete job is also much more satisfactory when good
quality Lumber is used.

The meeting at Union Chapel
is progressing nicely. Prof. Wil

and is winning his way into the
hearts of the people. The pastor
is doing the preaching. We are
having large congregations and
the Power of "Old Times” has
been felt in the hearts of many
which has brought shouts from
the saints. There have been 16
professions and many are inter
ested in their souls that haven’t
made the surrender yet. If- you
would like to attend an “Old
Time Revival” come over and
help us, and enjoy the blessings
with us.
The meeting at Elbaville begins
next Sunday at 11 a. m. Service
at 3 p. m. and at night. The 3rd
quarterly conference will be held
Monday August the 4th at Elba-

Several of the young folks have
been attending the meeting at
Chapel.
Much
of the
conviction is that the whole insti
tution js of the world, by the
world and for Ifhe world, there it
begins, flourishes and there it
ends. The people of "this world”
own, opérate, and attend them—
let them do so. The world must
have its attractions und worldly
people need" not be censured-for
loving .ita own. Let them have
them. But Christians ,have no
desire for such things. They
have been changed in heart from'
the “love of the world”. “If
any man love world the love of
the father' is not in him” I. Jn.
2-15. “The friendship of the
world is enmity against God”.
Jas. 4-4. Sinners and backsliders
attend movies—Vitál Christians,
not only do not attend them but
'flon’t.even wanttodoso. Praise
,God,; we ^ve not been in one in
’ Í4 years and have positively no
-'desire to ever see one. And
trust I have not a member on
Davie Circuit so backslidden as
to ever attend. God _ pity any
pastor of (chyrch that is so un-
fortunate as to' be loaded with
such “world soaked” members.
The movie business in the U.
S. costs *500,000,000. What fruit
has it to show for its works? The
church shows it fruit, but the
deceptive, soul surfeiting, spirit-
grieving movie has no fruit it is
willlhg to show. It dont want to
show the 60,000 girls who start
to ruin through it annually, the
church members it stop from
living God and attending His
Worship, If the movie has ever
converted any drunkards, re-,
dwmed any harlots, fed- any
widows and orphans, built any
hpspitels for the poor, or any
thing of the kind let them show
ÜS where. “Show your fruits”.
No they have none to show—
Why? Because God is not in it to
do these miracles of Grace. But
I can tell you what the movie can
and does do: It starts our young
people to run about at night,
breaks up the family circles, kills
their love for Spiritual things,
makes them frivulous, shallow
thoughted, world-loving, God
forgetting, prayerlesB, powerhss
and unfruitful in the kingdom of
heaven.
Some say, the “movie has come
to stay”-maybe it has. The
devil has come to stay, but that
dont make him good. The dance
has come to stay but people con
tinue to go to Hell through it.
So of the movie.
Behold, what focds some think
the. peoplie are, to imagine that,
we • would believe them when
they say, “money is not the con
trolling” object for which they
are operating them. Bleas God
folks have too much sense for
that “dope”.

lime afore he went back in the big house and told the Miss. He came back out lookin’ like a ghos’. “George, can you find his
grave?” he says, and I says, ‘Yassir.’ _ ,“Us brought him home and buried him again. It almos iiilied the Mistis. Marse George was kinda killed out too. Nuther one of ’em lasted very long after that. Mistis went first and twarn’t
long ’til Marse George followed her.“I she did love Marse Billy and Marse George, They was always good to me. I uster go back to Laurens county whp I was able to see if their graves was kep’ right. I’d pull out the grass and put some flowers there. It seems like a long time since the
last of those graves was made.” , . . , .The old darkey wept unreservedly during his narration, tragedy had lost none bf poignancy for him in the three
years which have elapsed. .Uncle George may often be seen seated at the foot of the Confederate monument. It is symbolic to him of friends who have
gone and of days long passed.” I always goes there when I gets lonesome for the old marster. It makes me sad and sometimes I cry. But when I’m there, it don’t seem like-they’re so far away.
A few years ago. Confederate veterans here presented Uncle George with a ticket to Nashville, Tenn., where he attended the
Confederate Reunion. 'His eyes grow bright as he recounts the reception tendered him by the aged men in gray. They are com
rades, to his mind. 'In 1898 Uncle George enlisted in a North Carolina negro regiment to fight in the Spanish-American war, but he was not
called for active service. “Roosevelt’s niggers didn’t leave enougho f ’e m for us to fight,” he explains. 'Uncle George lives with a paralytic brother. His afflicted
brother receives a pittance from children in the North. But Uncle George is left to shift for himself. His wife is dead and he
has no children. He received no pension from the State owing
to the fact that he'was never actively in service.He has pinned his hopes upon the promise of Captain Satterfield and as soon as he becomes settled he will send for him. “There may be other men in the world just as good as Cap n Satterfield,
but I ain’t never found one since the Lord taken my marster,

Music and the Ten Millionth
B Ford are" making merry along the
Lincoln Highway.
If it were possible toreprodtce
all the selections that have greet
ed the car so far on its eventful
trip from New York to b'an
Franclijco, the world would be
given a pliDnographic record
which would make tho moicrn
jazz orchestra green witU euvy,
according to accounts of the tour.I There would be recorded a great
medley of airs, produced_^by a
big variety of instruments and
pnnctuared by frequent bursts
of song, continuiil honking of au
to horns and blasts of factory
whistles.
Never before has there been
so much music along the greet
national roadway which connects
the East and West Coasts tvs has
characterized the journey of the
Ten Millionth Ford.
There have been parades and
receptions with large band?,
small bands, men’s bands, ladies
baiids and boys’ bands partici
pated in greeting the car at var
ious places, Scotch bag pipers
were a feature along part of the
I’oute. Bnglers announced the
coming of the car in some towns
and in one little city a group of
pretty girls riding on float her
alded its advent with horns. Even
callippes have at difserent points
added their familier notes to the
welcomed
Numbers rendored have inclu
ded everything from the inspir
ing tones of patriotic airs and the
over appealing swing of the
march to tne latest popular jazz
fancies and a reversion to the
more intimate tuns of ‘ 'The Lii;-
tle Old Rambled Righ along.”
Now traversing the great
stretches of the western part of
the country through Nebraska,
Wyoming and Utah and main
taining its schedule with char
acteristic Ford petformance, the
car which is telling the interest
ing story of the production of
ten million transportation units
by the Ford Moter Company, is
moving steadily on toward,the
Pacific coast with enthusiastic
picturesque welcpmes at every
point along the route.

her hair bobbed tor the ceremony
Mrs, Mary Sanders, 74, and A.
J. Fuller. 96, both inmate of the
Confederate soldiers’ home here,
were publicly married in the
presence of several hundred per
sons today. The groom was the
eight husband of Mrs, Sanders.
Altho well past the half century
mark, the bridge set a tew pace
when she eagerly had her hair
bobbed for her eighth matrimon

have distinguished' her as the
oldest bobbed hair enthusiast-in
the United States.
Rev. Abner Jones, a Mettiodist
minister, and also Confederate

Jap Signs: “No American
Goods For Sale Here”,
Several Tokia, Japan, stores
are displaying signs which read:
“No American goods sold here.”
A number of vernacular news
papers assert that the movement
to boscott American products,
started as a protest against pas:-,
sage of the new Amerrcaa Im’nii-
gration law, including a clause
prohibiting entrp of Japanese, is
gaining ground among the niidd'e
and lower classes, despite the ef
forts of the government to check

Port Development Advocates
Abandon Referendum Plan
(By Brock Barkley)
Port development advocates
have abondont?d thii proposal, for
a referendum and v,'iil light in
the special session for final action
regardless of the recommendation
of Governor .Morrison.
The fight wijl ba to accept or
reject the re.uort of tha ship and
water transportation commission
and there will be no resort to the
réfei'eddum even as a compro
mise, according to stutoments by
champions of, port development.
Governor Morrison very likely
will carry out his announced de
termination to ask for the refer
endum rather than for final ac
tion, but there, will be only a
small minority in the general ns-
semblyWho wiii stand to I’olluw
out his su.îcgustion, Dèvelopment
in the campiign for -against port
development h'is left only two
advocates of the referendtrin, Ed
itor Josnpui.s Daiiials wlio w:ititsi
the people to vote obviously be
cause he believes they vote neg
atively, and Governor iViorrinon,
who believes the electorate is
favorable.
Party leaders fear the refer
endum becaus“ of the possibiiities
that it will Hdverseiy all'ecL the
demoeratie campaign. Pure de-
veiopinent chatnpioii'i oppose il;
becauso th.;y think Uie legisl i-
ture is read',' to I'av-.Tabiy, or
they hope that if this one tun s
their measure tlo'.vn u-idliKcii jenr,
one may be more ¡jonero!!:;,
whereas failure in ilie cLi"ri
will kill it for ¡ill !ime 1.1 c.iaii.
And opponents of ;he in;-aHui'c
are dubious of the rei'eremluin
because tliey could not as eliV',-

(Salisbury Post)
“It is a wise . man who knows
when to stop work, ” says Kev.
James Anderson of Syracuse
, It; is a wiser man who stops up
on knowing when. The conntry
is full of men who are fagged out
by the daily grind, who know it.
and ÿet, with one excuse or a-
nother, don’t stop.
They can’t all’ord it, thej
hink,,and yet a good rast ia a;,
money-making enterprise, it the
long run.
Or. .the old sl.op or fiiict;
wouldn’t get along, if they laid
off; and so. the rising young lieu
tenants in the business get m
chance to show the manà'Jteriai
stuff that’s in them, and bec iuse
they havn’t been tested or given
a chance at experience, the busi
ness does break* do'.vn whe >
death or diseas compels ‘-’the oi:i
man’s” vacations.
The business that is depend
ent solely upon.No. 1, day afte •
day, is in a shaky condi'iion, in
those times, and the l.-est w^y
to teach No. 2 ho'.v to swim is tü
take him by the hind leg am!
throw him into seven
feet of water; that is,
and give him a chance
what is in his.
A good vacation ia niedicinc
and profitable business enter
prise. and every fellow whoso
nose is on the grindstona of hard
work is entitled to it.
This sounds just like a docioi’
coming in and saying “ You’re
aick,” and letting it.go at that,
with no attqinpt at re!i«f. oo
we’ll add a prescription:
, Take“ à fish rod, or a gun, or
a pu ¡ -stick, or the old “Lixzie,”
and /’ 0 ’way o/f somewhere wtiere
teleijrams,' -letters and other
worl 'My alïairs, save,' perhitps,
mostiuito'es,- can’t get at^you.
The grindstone will go ’round
and ’round as uisual • and tome
bright young lieutenunt wilj- l.'e
sh,arpen^ing [vis vyits on it, for the
good of the bijsiness.

What Could It Tell?

•■‘We m'lst go on with our sys

in an address before a meeting

Governor Morris'^n s:joke on

to.see North C irolina incresa her

the governor said. “ Th3 ':nldi-
tional 35 millions will give Nortii
Carolina tho iinest; system of
roads under the scars, and we are
going to tiave them. There is no
argument ' al'ou' that. 1 have
traveled oyer ihe state, ami every
where thi> pt'opie are a u '.ite in
favor of more gi.od roads.
“It rnay not be good politics to
bring tiifs :na:tei' before the spe
cial iaasembly, but I am not mak
ing any promises as to that. I
would like to see the entire pro
gram put over while the present
administration is in jjower, but
it may be wiser to le . the incom-

¡they will have to do tho work.
¡Bur, regardless of whether it

without any difficulty, you good
roads enthusiiists need have no

Altho he did not commit him
self der'initely. Governor Morri-
ison ihtimat^vi in his speich llv;'

Just a plain old black pen that’s
been chewed on the end, and it
live.s on a post oiflce table. It’s
dipped if. the ink as the writin’
folks think. Oh what it could
tell if ’twere able.
A maiden approaches and scrib
bles a bit. She smiles as a letter
is written. The,pen knows her
secrets; there’s no doubt of it.
It i» nows that with love she is
smitten.
A boy in his teen's, with no
dDugh in his jean:«, the long line
of writers will ji.in. The pen
knows the lad is ju it writin’ to
dad to suggest that he send hi»«'!
some coin.
A mother walks in, mid tho
post office din; just a little old
lady in black. She writes lo a
child who perhaps, has run wild
and she pleads that the youngster
come back.
Tlie t; usty old pen serves its
duty right well. It works for
whomever may call. It knows
lots of aecrets-but never will tell.
They’re merely pen-secrets—
that’s all!

“which indee I is the least pf all

the . greatest among herbs,; and
becometh a tree so that the birds
of the air c(5nie and lodge in the

Mr. A. G. Burleson, this,must

stalk of ,cotton the birds íiave
built a nest and the nest ndw'has
four eggs in it. He says that
this is no “fish story,” but that
the bird's nest, and the eggs, áre
