As, a side line he sold, in a shop, .iowolry, false teeth, and picture frames. He was a member of the Sons of Liberty and an accomp­ lished horseman. Nearly all of tho silverware nany other articles of tableware, made by Revere, like that of most of the New fingland silversmiths, had a lightness that the pieces of plate made in New York undpr Dutch tradition lacked.

Spoons, ftVe read that this art was prac- ’ ' • - • ■ - }iced in the Colonies at an early l)eriod, in fact only twenty-five years after the landing of the S'Mayflower.” Of course, these )f the silversmith art. Even to Lhis day his handiwork is an in­ spiration of beauty and simplicity :o designers. The work he has eft behind, pieces bearing his nark, compare very well with the ,vovk of the best craftsman of his I'iiy in England.

Now York City, a silver ea set copied from the Piuil Ro- ,'ere set which is now in the Me- |to this museum should make it a j)oint to see the silverware of this B'amous eraftsman, there preserv- pd for future generations. It may seem unusual, that the knive.s, and forks made from melt­ ed silver were as light as feath­ ers. The writer pos.sesses a poon made ii'om melted silver which her great-grandfather had larly craftsmen must have had | made to order in Philadelphia, nany trades at hand in order to arn a living for not all the poo- )le could afford silverware. ' In itles, however, like Boston, Phil- idelphia, and New York there .vas much activity in the making )f silver tableware. Doubtless ho first examples of silverware )roducod in the new country were iomo of those cjuaint thin spoons, he easiest kind to make. Ibston was far ahead of New ork in the making of silverware n the seventeenth century. The >ulch in Now York wore rather if an agricultural or commercial urn of miiul. When the English ook over the New Amsterdam "olony in 1664, they knew they lyere acquiring a trading post for urs and a seaport for the Dutch rading companies. Trade was lainly by barter and silver in tho orm of money, the very essential or the .silversmith’s trade, was ibsent. Some work was done, lowever, of a heavy, substantial Tpe patterned after pieces in tolland, and even after the Eng- ish began to settle in the city, be style in silverware remained Dutch until along in the eigh- etnth century. In the Brooklyn, New York, ^Uuseum may bo seen a silver ankard, the work of a Dutch raftsman by the name of Jacob and it weighs but four ounces. The lack of silver workers in Maryland, Virginia, and the Caro­ linas is accounted for by the fact that the Cavalier settlers, with a greater symjiathy for the Moth­ er country and her customs, im­ ported most of their ware. When one examines a piece of Colonial silver, ono is struck by the architectural quality of its moldings. One famous artist has j)ointed out how true to the clas­ sic forms of molding used, in ar­ chitecture aro many of these de­ tails. Take one of these old pieces and examine it carefully. The gleam of the silver general­ ly obscures thesfi small forms that one finds as rims on the top of a piece or as part of the base; but close inspection discloses that the makers of this early ware were not only craftsmen of good taste, but also men who knew consider­ able about the traditional form of architecture of the classic Roman or Renaissance periods. The straight sides of 'a tankard, for instance, spring out of the molding at the base, or the pure­ ly Greeian quality of the curve to a bowl show that the work is not the product of a mere apprentice. As these silversniitha had not visited old museums in the coun­ tries of Europe, we realize they SOOmERN eANK ü TRUST' CO. DISCONTIIIUES О Р Ш ! At a meeting of the directors of the Southern Bank and Trust Company held last night it wa.s decided by a unanimous votes 'of the directors present to discontinue the operations of the bank in view of unfavor­ able conditions that have been encountered for several monihs past. We understand that the corporation vdll voluntarily dissolve af­ ter paying its depositors and creditors ONE HUNDRED CENTS ON THE DOLLAR. With the passing of the Southern Bank and Trust Company, Mocksville and Davie County lose one of their most valuable institutions. Commencing business about five years ago under the management of A. A. Holleman the bank functioned well as an, asset to the farmers and business men of Mocksville and Davie County. The action taken last night by the board of directors must be construed as a wise step, the purpose being to discontinue operations before the bank should become faced with insolvency. As we understand it arrangements have been made that meet with the approval of the cor)>oration com­ mittee for complete dissolution of the bank and the liquidation of its affairs without a penny loss to a single depositor.

A large number of people from all parts of Davie were there at­ tending the Spring opening of the J. N. Ledford Company. If you failed to read their page ad in last week’s issue of this paper, come in and gel, a copy and rend it now. Mr. Smith says that they now have the most complete stock ever shown before. MR. FARMALL TALKS TO DiAVIE FARMERS John D. Rockefeller thinks tho modern , newspaper is doing a "fine and glorious work in a con­ structive way.” In a recent interview, Mr. Roekefl'ller said, "I can see a great improvement in the news­ paper profession in the last few years that is very encouraging. “It used to be that newspapers took a great delight in being an­ tagonistic, but it seems that they have changed their policies and are doing fine and glorious work in a constructive way. Of course there are still some that harp and nag and find fault and criticize, but I think that most of them are getting ovor that.” D O D G E l’N afEA SES NEW SPAPER SPACE THE COMMISSION BARN Dodge Brothers’ investment in newspaper advertising in 1928 will represent a 30 per cent in­ crease over last year, which was the largest, in the history of the company, according to G’eorge Harrison Phelps, Inc., advertis­ ing agents of Detroit. Newsjiaper ’advertising of Dodge Brothers in January shows as 85 per cent Increase over the advertising for the same month last year. Charlotte Observer. Mockaville, the fast-developing Capital of Davie county, makes boast of an institution worth while. It is a Commission Barn with Live Stock Yard attached, the only thing of the kind “in North Carolina.” The Mocksville Enterprise gives credit to W. R. Clement. The barn is "well- lighted,” electrically, and is mod- ernly equipped, and carries on business during the night as well as by day. At this Commission Barn live stock sales are conduct­ ed on the last Tuesday of each month and draw stock buyers “from all over the United States.” A jjavillion is provided so that sales can be made any day,' rain or shine. The undertaking on part of Mr. Clement is to make Mocksville the “live stock center” of the State, and that is a worthy ambition. LINDY TURNS UP IN GO'l’HAM Curtis Field, N.

Cooperative Order Be Made For Davie Seed Farmers Free Marbles To School Boys NOW IS TflE TIME TO PRUNE AND SPUAY FRUIT TREES • This is the last week of the season for pruning and spraying fruit trees. The San Jose scale is one of the most serious insects 01 tile peach. This scale is quite small, little if any larger than the point of a lead pencil. This scale ia grayish in color,, circular in outline, somewhat convex, and with a nipple like prominene in the center. When 'a tree is heavf- ly infested with the insects it presents a ashy gray appearance. To control this insect it is rieces- aary to spray during the dormant season. This should consist of the following home made Concen­ trated lime sulphur spray: Flours of sulphur 14 lb Stone lime 12 lb and water 50 gallons. The sul­ phur is made into a thin paste with water. The lime Is then adr . ded and more water added gradu- spending your money for same. We have thousands of m arbles, that we are going to give to th© school boys, and girls, too, if they want them, within the next fevr. days. Now these are very pretty- marbles and every boy in Davi» county will be proud to own a. half hundred or more which w» are going to give you. Now w t N.’ant all tho boys who would like to have at least fifty of these pretty marbles to call .at our ofllce any afternoon this week and let us explain our proposition to you. You can got fifty or more for just a few minutes of your time, possibly not over five minu­ tes of very pleasant work for you' to do. But it is not hard work either, 'and you will not have to ispend any of Uncle Sam’s good hard money. Oh, gee, won’t that be an easy way for you to get your supply of marbles without ally as the Ifmc slakes. As soon as the lime finishes slaking the mixture is cooked in some con­ venient boiler for about an hour. It is best to ad water enough to keep the mixture up to about 12 gallons. This mixture is made up to about 50 gallons with water, strained into the spray tank, and applied to the trees warm. This same spray will help control the ioaf cury which'was serious in this season last season. I shall be glad to help anyone with their spraying or pruning. Lets get this done before it is too late. Other articles will appear In this paper later on when it is time, to put on ^ spray. W. P. YOUNG, Agr. teacher. NEW NAME FOR ACID PHOS- i*HATE IS SUPERPHOSPHATE Superphosphate is the new name' which is generally being a- doptod by tho fertilizer trade for acid pliosplrate. Jn snme sections of the country, the term “acid phosphate” has been found ob- .iectionabl'e because of the false inference that it carries some­ thing which when applied to the .soil makes its acid.

One famous artist haa pointed out how true to the clas- .sic forms of molding used, in ar­ chitecture are many of these de­ tails. Take one of these old liiecos and examine it carefully. The gleam of the silver general­ ly obscures theae small forms that iiu(v.f)nd8 as rims on the top of a ..icc-i part of the base; but close Ii!s|jc>;i>.^,.disclosos that tho makers of thi'i ‘'■i’rly ware were not only craftsmen of good taste, but also men who knew consider­ able about the traditional form of architecture of the classic Roman or Renaissance periods. The straight sides of a tankard, for inatiince, spring out of the molding at tho base, or the pure­ ly Grecian quality of the curve to a bowl show that tho work is not the product of a mere apprentice. As these silversmiths had not visited old museums in the coun­ tries of Europe, wo reali/.e they SOOIHER» OAIIK i IROSrCO. O I S C O K O P EM Tl At a meeting of the directors of the Southern Bank and Trust Company held last night it was decided by a unanimous vote of the directors present to discontinue the operations of the bank in view of unfavor­ able conditions that have been encountered for several months past. We understand that the corporation will voluntarily dissolve af­ ter paying its depositors and creditors ONE HUNDRED CENTS ON THE DOLLAR. With the passing of the Southern Bank and Trust Company, Mocksville and Davie County lose one of their most valuable institutions. Commencing business about five years ago under the management of A. A. Holleman the bank functioned well as an asset to the farmers and business men of Mocksville and Davie County. The action taken last night by the *board of directors must be construed as a wise step, the purpose being to discontinue operations before the bank should become faced with insolvency. As we understand it arrangements have been made that meet with the approval of the corporation com­ mittee for complete dissolution of the bank and the liquidation of its affairs without a penny loss to a single depositor.

THE COMMISSION BARN Charlotte Observer. , Mocksville, the fast-developing Capital of Davie county, makes boast of an institution worth while. It is a Commission Barn with Live Stock Yard attached, the only thing of tho kind ‘‘in North Carolina.” The Mocksville Enterprise gives credit to W. R. Clement. The barn is "well- lighted,” electrically, and is mod- ernly equipped, and carries on business di\ring the night as well as by day. At thia Commission Barn live stock sales are conduct­ ed on the last Tuesday of each month and draw stock buyers "from all over the United States.” A pavillion is provided so that sales can be made any day,'rain or shine, The undertaking on part of Mr. Clement is to make Mocksville the “live stock center” of the State, and that is a worthy ambition.

Cooperative Order Be Made For Davie Seed Farmers Ml order to save the iarmers money on their seed for spring planting I will take orders for seed until the time for placing the order which will probably be in about ten days. We have prices on Mammoth yellow ,aoy beRns which will be delivered at appro­ ximately $1.80 per bushel. Lare- dos will bo considerably more due to the demand 'and the scarcity of seed. But I am sure that we can get them at a considerable sav­ ing by ordering in a quantity. Also, if the farmers desire we shall place an order for clover and alfalfa seed with some re­ liable company, and thereby take advantage of buying, in wholesale quantities. Let ine have your order aa aoon aa possible. , W, P, YOU iiG, Aisv. teacher. Free Marbles To School Boys NOW IS THE 'I'lME TO PRUNE AND SPRAY FRUIT TREES This is the laat week of the season for pruning and spraying fruit trees. The San Joae scale is one of the most serious insects 01 tiie peach. This scale is quite small, little if- any larger than the point of a load pencil. This scale is grayish in color, circular in outline, somewhat convex, and with a nipple like prominene in tho center. When 'a tree is heavf- ly infested with the insects it presents It ashy gray appearance. To control this insect it is neces­ sary to spray during the dormant season. Tliis should consist of the following home made concen­ trated lime sulphur spray: Flours of sulphur 14 lb Stone limo 12 lb and water 50 gallons. The sul­ phur is made into a thin paste We have thousands of marbles: that we arc going to give to tho school boys, and girls, too, if they want them, within the next few days. Now these are very pretty marbles and every boy in Davie county will bo proud to own a- half hundred or more which wci are going to give you. Now we N.’ant all the boys who would like to have at least fifty of these pretty marbles to call af; our ofHco any afternoon this week nnd let us explain our proposition to you. You can get fifty or more for just a few minutes of your lime, possibly not over five minu­ tes of very pleasant work for you' to do. But it is not hard work either, 'and you will not have to 'sptind any of Uncle Sam's good hard money. Oh, gee, won’t thati be an easy way for you to get your supply of marbles withoutwith water. The lime la then adr ded and more water added gradu- spending your money for same. ally as the Ifmc slakes. As soon as the lime finishes slaking the mixture is cooked in some con­ venient boiler for about an hour. It ia best to ad water enough to keep the mixture up to about 12 gallons. This mixture ia made up to about 50 gallons with water, strained into the spray tank, and applied to the trees warm. This same spray will help control the loaf cury which'was serious in this season last season. I shall be glad to help anyone with their spraying or pruning, Lots get this done before it is too late. Other articles will appear in this paper later on when it is time to put on a spray, W, P, YOUNG, Agr, teacher.

S, INC. Th e SENIOR SIX AND AM ERICA’S EASTEST FOUR ALSO O N DISPLAY A few nights ,ngo I went to bed nlong about tho hour of 12 o’clock in a cold room; to tell tho truth tho room wna icy cold, and I could fool tho frosty nir oozing up thni tho floor where tho planks joined together. Outside the world was dnrknoss; not 'a single star wns visible; tho wind howled nnd ronr- od in n most forlorn nnd lono- sonlo mnnnor, and tho whole world aucmed awnllowtd v\p and consumed in opuijue gloom. I shivered and shook with the cold, and wished that I wn.s in some distnnt tropical land, sitting be­ neath the shade of a royal pnlm with the languor of eternal sum­ mer in my veins. However, I was soon lost in sleep, nnd Morpheus wns kind. Pleasant dreams flitted thru my brain. 1 dreamed that it was summer, and could smell the frn- grnneo of tho rose, see the morn­ ing glories, honey-cloyed in dew, hear tho mocking bird singing with full-thronted ease in n leafy tree nnd thrilled and palpitated with the .ioy and glory of it nil. It seemed ns though the entire world wns summer nnd every liv­ ing creature wns making a joyful sound. By and by I found myself in an automobile nnd speeding toward the Blue Ridge. After a tim? I roflched tho mountains, towering high and lifting their noble heads in maje.atic and solemn grandeur above tho vnlloys. I set forth on foot nnd climbed tho tnllest peak. After two hours of hard climbing I stood ntop n lofty crag nnd gazed downward on the other side, And there, stretched vow on row of rhodod­ endron in full blossom of pink nnd wh,ite'; groat clumps of honey­ suckle dotted the mountain side like yellow gold’. And as I gazed upon this scone the fragrnnco of the flowers rose up nnd struck me full in the face, and I was mndo gind and contented, A cool spring of mountain wat­ er bubbled up near by, made cool by ages in the earth. I drank and felt revived and strengthened. So absolutely rested nnd sntisfied wna I with the inexplicable beau­ ty and sweetness of this moun­ tain, I decided that I should re- mnin there forever and ever. I lay down on a huge flat rock that was made cool by a great chest­ nut tree that towered high aloft. Aa I lay and rested, fanned and swept by cool, soft and' gfentlo ze­ phyrs laden with the brenth of flowers 'and the di'ogg of summer fllled my veins with lazy languor,, and I feasted my eyes upon the I Ayild ,and rugged beau<;y whiqh was truly a scone of primal and primeval glory, I could only think of how much 1 hnd lost by not being there sooner. This thought however, soon passed away, and' only the beautiful rhododendron and honeysuckle stood out nnd prodominated. I wna aa near hoavon a.s I want­ ed to be and therefore, hud made up my mind’ to stay there until tho mountain fell. But jviat abovit this timo, I wns awakened by someone calling m e ;, the scone .started slopping and | fading from me, and cling and clutch aa I would, to tho huge boulder with all my atrongth, yet nil my frantic oH'orls wero of no avail. I foil o(T the rock. Loud­ er and louder camo the voice. They were calling me to break- faat. I looked 'at my watch and it wna nenrly seven o’clock— and' press dny. I hurried . up , and drossod, snatched a bite to ent nnd a cup of coffee, and was off to the of­ fice. RED CLOVER VALUABLE; SHOULD GROW MORE DAVIE CHARGE E. M.

Raleigh, Fob. 29.—^'I’ho succoaa of ninny Tarheel fnrniors In grow­ ing rod clovRi’ Inat 'year, ahould bo nn incentive for further plant­ ing of the crop this spring. "Growing red clover has not beon succe.isful in pnat yeni’s by some farmors," aaya E. C. Blair, oxtonsion agronomist at S tnto' College, "but ^y,o are rdpidl'y learning more about the crop. Most of our farmers know that they must nppjy either lime or a moderate quantity of stable ma­ nure. for this vnrioty. Mildew hns given oonaidornblo trouble in the State but this can be con­ trolled by dusting with sulphur. Some growers have had their clover to die for no apparent rea­ son but this can also be control­ led by getting better seed from known sources.’’ Mr. Blair puts emphnsia oh’tho Importance of knowing'where the seed comes from. Ho states that most county farm agents now knew where to buy seed of the right sort and no farmer should plant his red clover before ask­ ing about this important' dotnil. An unfavorably dry season sometimes ruins a atnnd of young , clover but if the land is limod: properly, good sood used and' drilled on the small grain with n littlo fertilizer, chances for suC'j^ cess with tho crop aro much inl- provcd. The cost of sowing nn ucro'of the red clover is no more than for most other cropa when the labor ia considered. The cash . outlay per nci'o, including the lime, need not bo ovor ton dol­ lars an acrc and the labor ia a^ moat nothing. In Mr. BUvir’a opinion, a good crop of rod clover is one of tho most valuable additiona to any farm. It la.sta for two yenr.s while most other crops last only one . year. It furnishes nn abundnnt supply of hny of tho best quality,, keeps the land from washing and is equally as valuable for soil, improvement. ; t ' I don’t want to be a caveman } Nor lead a caveman’s Hie, But I’d rather be a cavomnn Than be— a caveman’s wife. nillH 1Н 111И1В Get HORN-JOHNSTONE CO.

Rural Song and Comment (I3y Arch Huneycutt) NO SQUEAKS OK RATTLES ‘ IN VICTORY SIX BODIES A' day spent in the Sandhill floctron of North Carolina. A day driving over' that vast territory embracing Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Aberdeen and environs. ■ Such a day would be a source of pleasure and a veritable reyela- tion to thousands of good North Carolinians who have never once dreamed of Avhat is doing down there. For .as surely as we live, in the Southern Pines 'and Pine-, iiurst community are being de­ veloped big things. This is known -when one learns that over a million dollars have been .spent in winter resort building since the closing season for winter tourists last May. You were at Pinehurat three years ago? ^ W&ll that does not mean that'you are keeping up ivith wh'at is now going on in the Sandhills today, any more than to. atteinpt to tell what is being ilone' in other rapidly growing centers of this state where you have not .visited and looked over during the past throe or. four years. Indeed, everywhere one travels in North Carolina these days one sees evidences of pros­ perity'and growth. This is more' evident in some sections) than others. The Judge, who is a i wealthy ;’ittsburgh jurist, started his 7ieenhouse (only orchids are grown) several years ago as a iiobby. It i)rovcd so fa.scinating to him and Mrs. Way that they built on to it and today it is the argGst greenhouse South of the Potomac. We say-largest, well, it may not be the largest, but; is the most expensive, for tied up in the building.s and equipment, including plants, is a total cost of more ■<Aan $100,000. And the .Judge told us that it is a paying proposition, /coo, 'and intimated that shortly the place is to be made much larger. Just a few .inya before our visit the Judge purchased ;around $7,000 worth of orchid plants. And to show that he is not worrying about getting orders for all his orchids, there are standing orders for his entire output. . , And, speaking of the Sandhills,' how many North Carolinians knew that Southern Pines is the home of some of the nation’s best known writers? James Boyd, author I of "Drums,” lives there, aa does also Hugh Kohler, noted magazine writer. Struther Burt, another famous writer, spends his winters in the Sandhills, iir , u ».• i 1. ■ What this Sandhill resort de- cMnce to lo:k\:;\ Ih^ San^'hin I T Another place which greatly in­ terested us waa the Archers Com­ pany’s place. We don’t know for a certainty, but we believe this is the only organization in the state devoting its entire attention to the manufacture of archery goods. It is the largest exclusive manu­ facturer of archery tackle in the world. The manager, whom we had met at the Kiwanis lunche­ on, very kindly showed us ovor the entire plant, where we saw the various woods from which the bows and arrows are made, and saw the goqds in the making. We were interested to learn that many of the arrows are made fr(jm North Carolina pine. Other woods are secured in Cuba, Nor­ way, Oregon and South America. Any one driving down that way will certainly enjoy a trip thr­ ough this interesting plant, which ia located in an attractive native atone .building on the Midpines Road just below Pinehurst.

"It is the only thing!” she urg­ ed Larry, as soon‘as the other was out of hearing. "Can’t you see it? Wo cannot stay here. Don’t you see it?” she implored. "I w.ant to get out before he gets bade,” replied Larry bluntly.: "You’re right; I’ll go.” "I'm going with you,” she said steadily. “W hat! You cannot do that!” "You are going to need me; I know,” .she insisted, “it is part of my wisdom, as you call it.” The hunted, hurt look in his face softened. “Come,” ho cried, alnjost exul- , tantly. “There must bo people ; who marry people up here!

We will ' send some one out from a gar­ age.” But Simmins, at the thought of being left 'alone with a marooned, and exasperated Pirate Chief, lost all his pose and poise and be­ came thoroughly human. “Oh, Miss Burton!” he cried. "Don’t leave me here all alone!” “ Afraid of the woods, Sim­ mins?” asked Larry mischievous­ ly. “Yes, sir,” rejoined Simmins, “I am afraid of the woods; and I am afraid of Mr. Grimstead.” Lärry glanced-at Burton, who nodded. “All right; come along,” he agreed. “One moment, sir,” begged Sim­ mins. , ' He produced a pad and pencil and wrote thereon. “I don’t want to pry; but if that note is to Grimstead— ” sug­ gested Davenport. “It is only my resignation, sir”, replied Simmins. “You are right,” said Daven­ port. “W hat would you consider the proper procedure for a young lady eloping. Should she also leave some sort of written com­ munication?” “I took the liberty of explain­ ing in my note that I was leav- i ing to enter lyour service, sir, .and j that of Miss Burton; and that it ■ is intended to send a garage man j immediately,’’.answered Simmins. 1 ' “You relievo my mind, Sim- j mins,” murmured Larry, and has-! toned to join Burton and the stage j driver.

Feb. 29.— Of un­ usual interest to the millions of Chevrolet owners in the United States was the announcement made here today by the Chevro­ let Motor Company that nearly 4,000 men— heads of dealers’ ser­ vice departments— are being call­ ed in to attend specially conduct­ ed service schools. These schools, designed to place the service facilities of the company on a higher plane than ever before, are being held dur; ing 'February and March for the service personnel of the Chevro­ let dealer establishments through- òi^t tlje country. The'Service managers are being summoned to the 45 zone head­ quarters, where the schools are being <:ondtìc)tcid. Here, under resident instructoi’s, they are given a course in every phase of shop management. Among the principal subjects covered are shop arrangement: equipment and special tools;, ap­ pearance and maintenance; shop, personnel; training of service personnel; operating costs; spe­ cializing tho work of mechanics; comrlensntion of mechanics, and' the keeping of detailed, and exact shop records. Upon completion of the course,i the sepice managers are com­ petent: to go back to their own establishments prepared to con­ duct their end of the denier’s business upon the high standards evolved' by factory ofHcials from' the most appi'oved methods known. This means that Chevrolet- owners everywhere may expect uniformly eflicient service and courteous attention from the ser­ vice departments of the wide spread Chevrolet dealer orgahizn- ■ tion. life of the post. Mr. Holman states that if this treatment is' followed in 'build­ ing new fences, the life of the posts will be so greatly increased that the owner will not be put to the expense of constantly re­ newing. USES FARM MACHINERY TO INCREASE PROFITS TREAT FENCE POSTS TO PREVENT DECAY Raleigh, Feb. 29.— All timber decays. Some kinds decay quick­ ly and others more slowly, de­ pending on the kind of lumber and its use. Fence posts’ begin to decay first just a few inches below the surface of the ground and to prolong the life of the post, it may be treated with creo- j Bote. I '‘The average fence post may | be treated with creosote under or­ dinary farm conditions by using the open tank process,” says A. T. Holman, agricultural engineer at State College. “We know that wood or wood-products subject to alternate wetting and drying will decay more readily than those Itept wet or dry as the case may be. Longleaf or yellow pine, cy­ press, mulberry and black locust are among the most satisfactory woods commonly used for posts. Sap woods aro unsatisfactory un­ less treated with creosote and in fact, all posts should be treated. AVe advise tho open lank process.” In this process, two open tanks ' are used, one for hot treatment and the other for cold treatment, ; states Mr. Holman. Get the po.sts j ready— cut, trimmed and peeled, j Use a 100-gallon steel oil drum with the head removed for the , first tank and another drum or , trough for Ihe second. Coal tar ■ creosote or a similar preservative | is placed in tlie first tank''and i heated to 175 to 200 degrees. The posts are then placed in this and I allowed to stand on end for one-1 half to one hour when they are removed and immediately placed - in thu second tank, Thia second ; tank is also filled with the same preservative maintained at 100 de­ grees or certainly not less than fifty. This is called the cold tank. The posts should remain here for 30 minutes. Usually the base <ir ground end is treated ill tank number one and the whole po.it in tank number two, state.“! Mr, Holman. The creosote oil should penetrate at least ii-4 of an inch to elTectively prolong the ■ Raleigh, Feb. 29.— 'Phe use of modern farm machinery will add to the profits of' tho avqrage farm and give increased returns from the labor employed. This is the opinion of \V. T. Moss of Youngsvllle in Franklin county who has increased the size of his farm, added to its profits and has found a solution of his labor problem by using such farm machinery as is adapted to the kind of farming he practices. Mr. Moss is a young man, only 34 years of age at this time, but is already being heralded through­ out North Carolina as one of its leading farmers. He is a natural farmer because he first began to grow things when he was only eleven yeais old and his father g ^o ^him two acres of cotton. ,^VMn he grew older, he came to State College and took a special ond-yoar course in agriculture. Following this course, ho re­ turned to his little farm and his father turned over 30 acres of land adjoining Youngsvllle that had been farmed by a tenant. Mr. Moss took charge of this In the winter of 1913 and today he has a farm of 225 acres. Some 25 acres is in woodland and the re­ mainder is in cultivation, pasture, orchards or lots. Cotton, corn, soybeans, alfalfa, rye, oats and other small crops are grown. Each acre Is made to produce be­ cause some of it cost about .$200 to 'buy and some is now valued On the tax books at $100 an acre. Mr. Moss uses the best of farm machinery, having two and three row riding implements included in his supply and farming all of this land with only five laborers. These laborers also have crops of their own but work in the owner’s crops when he needs them. Ten heavy draft horses are used on the farm and all the horse power needed on the farm is grown at homo. Last year, the gross pro­ fits from this small place amount­ ed to 'about ?8,000 and were due in a large measure to good meth­ ods of cultivation, use of good seed, fertile soil built by a crop rotation, and intelligent business methods. * A.

Kalei):h, Fob. 29,— The annual Fivimers’ Day held at the Brick school in Halifax county on Wiishingtoii’s Birthday is ono of the largest farm meetings to be held ill North Carolina each year. This year, there were about 2,- 000 men and women at this meet­ ing at the most conservative es­ timate and the entire day was de­ voted to a study of farm problems affecting the colored race in east­ ern Carolina. Tho institute is held annually under the direction of the authorities of Bricks Jun­ ior College cooperating with the State College extension division. The meeting for 1928 began prom­ ptly at 10:30 o’clock in the morn­ ing and closed at about 5:30 in the afternoon. The morning ses­ sion was a general meeting for both men and women, and the afternoon was given over to sepa­ rate conferences for the two groups. Delightful singing by trained pupils, preliminary addlreses of welcome and other routine mat­ ters characterized the opening minutes after which the confer­ ence went to work to hear plans for farming for the coming year, Tho need for these plans was out­ lined by a successful bolored farmer, Carey Pittman, L. E. Hall, colored district agent for tho State College extension divi­ sion outlined the plans prompted hy his organization and these were further discussed- by two local colored agents working in that territory. A special address on the part of the farm woman was given by the colored home demonstration agent of Wayne county, Emma McDougald. In the afternoon, special talks to the men present were made by Prof. C. R. Hudson and F. H. Jeter of tho State College staff, A number of local colored lead­ ers were then called upon.for ob­ servations and suggestions. Xhe entire moBti»gvwas char­ acterized 'by earnestii)&s3,"a de­ sire for detailed information and by keen, orderly dis.gjjssions. Cre­ dit for the meeting is due Prof, T. S. Inborden, pi'incipal emeri­ tus of tho .school and one of the outstanding leaders of his race in North Chrolina. GET GOOD SEED IN i’LANTING CLOVER UNUSUAL SfilCIOKS OCCUR IN GOTHAM ONLY GOOD TOBACCO W ILL PAY PROFIT Raleigh, Fob. 29,— Despite the increase in cigarette smoking and the widespread demand for flue- cured tobacco, the outlook for the crop this year is none too good, especially in view of tho great in­ crease in acreage that will bo sot this spring. 'rhis means, that only the to­ bacco of high quality will pay a profit this season. The govern­ mental and state outlooks for the crop have been widely distributed ovor North Carolina and Indica­ tions are that farmers will over- plant throughout the entire to­ bacco growing section. Careful attention must be given to preparing the soil for the plants. The land should be pro­ perly fertilized aecording lo re­ commendations made recently by the agronomy department at State College. Where the trouble known as "sanddrown” occurs, magne­ sium limestone should be applied to the soil. On heavy, fertile soils the ag­ ronomists recommond an 8 3 5 fertilizer except where there are red clay subsoils and then the potash may be reduced from 5 to 3 percent. On light, rather poor soils, the agronomist recommends an 8 4 0 fertilizer. In either case from 800 to 1200 pounds of the I'ertllizor should be applied in the drill .at or just before planting. Tho [source of ¡plant food is also important. One-half of the nitrogen needs to come from high grade organic material like cot­ tonseed meal or fish scrap 'and the other half from nitrate of soda or other inorganic sources.’ Not too much muriate of potash should be used as this v/ill sup­ ply some chlorine that might in­ jure the burning quality of the leaf. Enough sulphate of pot-, ash or potashmagnesta-should be used to offset the effect of tho chlorine in the muriate. Better yields and better quali­ ty' of weed haa been secured at the Tobacco Branch Station and on many individual farms where the dolomitic or magnesium lime­ stone has been spread over tho land or applied in the drill be­ fore setting the plants or appl.''- ing the fertilizer. At least 1,000 pounds per acre should be used when tho limestone is applied broadcast. Dumb Dora says, "Hell hath no fury like a woman’s corns.” lialeigh, Feb, 29, — There is much worthless' red clover scot! on the market. Some of it will germinate' poorly; some is filled with seeds ot objectionable weeds and some is subject to the anthr- acnose disease, ‘‘We must consider germination, purity and source of seed in buy­ ing our supply of red clover seed thia spring,” says E, C. Blair, ex­ tension agronomist at State Co'• lege. “Good germination awl high purity .are important for a 1 kinds of seeds and especially ' • red clover. Those seed w hijh germinate ipoorly «re costly no matter whftt prip,0'fs paid because few-of- them wiil produce plants that grow". The same rule holds for purity, with the added danger that we might infest our fields with noxious weeds.” In buying red clover seed, it is important to know where they grew. There is a certain fung'us disease, known as lanthracnose, which has played havoc with red clover nearly all i over eastern United States. This disease has been the cause of widespread fail­ ure with the clover. To avoid '■.his trouble, it is necessary to lecure seed grown in certain >5arts of the United States. These '•egions produce seed which have the power of resisting the disease. In Mr. Blair’s opinion, it is not safe to depend on foreign seeds. These can now be identified by a green staining. Neither is it safe to plant .any other seed that may be ofifered. Know the ori­ gin of the seeds, he advises.' As to help in this, most of the '■.ounty farm 'agents of State 'Col­ lege know where good red clover seed mn.y be obtained. They have been advised as to the best qual­ ity of product, grown in the right parts of the country. Mr. Blair states that any of these agent.«) will be glad to assist clover grow­ ers in getting the best seed for planting this season.

BRO’PHERS RIVALS IN CON­ TEST FOR CIRCUIT JUDGE COWS W OULD PAY IF BETTER FED Raleigh, Fob. 29.—^One third of the 300,000 milk cows In North Carolina pay a profit, one-third are merely boarders and one-third are robbers. “The reason for this is that most of the cows 'are so poorly fed;” says Robert H, RufTner, head of tho animal husbandry de­ partment a't (State College. “If all of these 300,000 cows were fed 'a well-propared balanced ra­ tion, the one-third now paying a profit would increase their pro­ duction from 2Q to 30 per cont; those which arc boarders would pay a fair profit and the robbers might cease their nefaribus prac­ tice.” Mr. Ruffner estimates that a better feeding practice луоиШ add ?16 a year per cow to the receipts of the ov/ners which would mean an increased income of $4,600,000 in annual income to dairymen of this State, One of the greatest aids to bet­ ter production is preparing the cow for future milk production is preparing the cow for future milk production while she is dry. This is the foundation of great­ est yield at lowest cost. The cow should be in good flesh ¡be­ fore calving and then will' not need heavy grain feeding to sus­ tain heavy milk flow afterwards. Six to eight pounds a day of a feed prepared by mixing 125 lbs of corn and cob meal, 100 pounds of ground oats, 100 pounds of луЬеа1 bran and 50 pounds of linseed oil meal will permit the dry cow to gain in weight and accumulate flesh during the rest period before calving. The cow should rest at least six weeks and two months is better. While dry, tho cow must also have a good fted of hay. That from legumes is best. Alfalfa, .soybean, cowpoa or clover hay will furnish the mineral needed to build up the frame work of the calf, provide some for stor­ age in the body of the mother cow and will tiiereby lay the foundation for maximum milk yield later. If there is no green pasture available, and the owner has neither silage nor boet pulp, feed the cow at least 30 pounds of mangels, turnips, carrots or cab­ bage each day. If these are not available, give a bran mash made by soaking two pounds of wheat bran in a gallon of water for 24 hours.---------- * G. G. W ALKER MOTOR CO. * * Mocksville, N.

These are, food and feed crops, money crops and soil improvement erops. “It is always moro economical to produce the food and feed- stufl’.s needed on the farm,” says Prof, C, R, Hudson, a voteran in larm demonstration work at'State College. “The. outlook for cotton and tobacco is none too g.ood this year, especially if the acreage is increased. Wo should fortify ourselves against low prices. It is .al.so just as important to have a'fertile soil on which to farm. Some part of the land should be S^t aside for the_ growing of both summer 'and winter legumes. Where legumes are not planted as a winter crop, some rye should be used. This sunimer, all land not in other crops should be planted to cowpeas or soybeans.” These two summer legumes w ill furnish both forage and soil fer- 'tility, states Mr, Hudson. Mr, Hudson’s third suggestion is to plan to produce money crops. These, however, should bo ar­ ranged for aftor enough land has been set aside for tho other two purposes. Cotton, ,tobacco and other staple crops should be. planted on land fertile enough to produce them profitably. The money erops should ba forced to give high yields per acre of qual­ ity produce. Better cotton seed' should be planted this season, cautions Mr. Hudson, and tho to­ bacco needs to be well fertilized. In fact, states Mr. Hudson, more attention needs to be paid to fertilizer this year. The ma­ terial is higher in price and it is doubly important that the mi.x- tures ‘bought be suited to the crops 'and soils where used. The advice of the North Carolina Ex­ periment Station should be sought in this, he says. 66 YEARS A M ILL W ORKER, SPINSTER HAiS ENCOUN­ TERED ROMANCE ONCE 'I’opeka, Kas,, — 'Pwo brothers whoso’ birthdays come only once in four years will hold their quad­ rennial eelebratrph February 29.

C.— Sixty-two long years in cotton mills and yet spry, proud and cheerful at 88— this is the record of Miss Epsio Scott, one of the first women over to bo employed in a 'textile mill in tho South. She lives contentedly horo in a little room that is bedroom, kit­ chen and parlor. She doesn’t think her life has been wasted 'ind doean’t know if ahu would have been happier if sho had married. She is even inclined to think not. Yet she says Santa Claus failed her. , “Pleasures? I have had none,” she answered to a question. “I didn’t have time in my life for any pleasures. I never even knew about Santa Olaus. I hung my stockings up once or twico just for fun but— shucks, it didn’t do no good BO, I stopped.” In 1854, when the spinster was a l,lttle girl of 10, her father died, leaving her to help support young­ er brothers and sisters. From that year until 1915, Mins Epsio Scott was a cotton mill woi'ker. When the Northern soldiers burned the Saluda Cotton Mills, she went to Georgia, but in later years gradually retraced her way to the milla in South Carolina, working hero and there, losing jobs as the 'industry ebbed in prosperity. She worked in one mill so long “three times the floor wore out under whore I stood and they had to put a new floor on.” Only one little bit of romancé ever .shattered tho toiling mono­ tony of Mias Epaio Scott’s life. She had a beau— once! “Yes, I had a beau once,” the little old lady takes pains to con­ fide to questioning neighbors. “Laws— I forgot who he was now but I do remember he asked' to carry me home from meeting one Sunday, It scairt me so I jaroke and run all the way home— and I never laid eyes on him no more. That’s the only beau I ever had.” Not a penny cTíd she save while working. There appeared to be so many nieces and nephews and cousins needing help. So when a few years ago she became too feble to do anything but sit in her little room, •there wa» some talk of sending her to the 'alms house. Bût no ala>s house for proud Miss Epsie. Compromise resulted in her be­ ing given enough money to live alone. I took my girl to the senior prom ’Cause she couldn’t go alone. And it’s dam lucky that I did. For ’twas hC'i’ who brought me home.

So it is that at present the most Intimate friends whic'n Otto Wood notorious kijller, jail breaker and bandit, has. are the'little English sparrows that come every day through the barred windows of “Death Row” and perch on. the bars of Otto’sdoor, where they twitter and chirp, and whero they are always rewarded« by crumbs he has saved from the food allot­ ted him. ■ ; These dimuhitive birds without a so^g seem to hold some strange ' fascination for Otto. Perhap.s it is because they represent about his only connection with the out­ side world, and because they are virtually the 'only ones that can enter tho gloomy cell houso in “Death Row” and return again to the sunshine outside.

' "At one time, tobacco mosaic \yas regarded as of little conse­ quence,” says S. G. Lehman, plant disease investigator at State Col­ lege. "Bút from observations and tests that we have made in recent years, I am cnnvincod that this disease causes a heavier money loss than all tiho other di­ seases^ put together. The lo.sses arc iiisidiona; the plants are not killed outright but the leaf is flsually reduced, iii size mnd tho quality of tho cured leaf is low­ ered. , Many fcrov/ers recognize the trouble In their fields but are, not concornod. They say the plants Will grow out of it-but this is a mistake." In one test made by Dr. Leh­ man, a given weiirht of tnbhcco fr()m a plot iiioculated with the di.seiise. :¡it .setting tima was found tg be worth 43 percant less than the same wejght taken from a healthy plot. Not only had the quality of the leaf boon reduc'd by this, 43 pbi cont hut the-yield oil the diseased plot was also re­ duced- to such an extent that on an acre- b.¡i.sis,' the'diseased to­ bacco was actually worth 01 per cent less nioney than the crop .from tho healthy plot. Dr. Lehman states that about 75 percent of the tobacco fiolds o.r il'o State are iiiftctcd with iiio.saie and it Is causing appro- ci!’blñ lf),s.so.j on about half of^ this acreage. The reduction in money value of the tobacco crop for-the stale as a wliole is iiiobabiy not Ic.SK i:a ii !.,vo |je, Tiiis meun.s iliat the growers ia.st yoar, lost not less than two 'million riol- Jnr.'i fi'oiii f,}ii« one trouble.

When they graduate from high school they are ready to hold a position. 'In junior college they are permitted to work at re­ munerative emiiloyment during, during the afternoon. They can continue- their education on thr­ ough college, and then thoir earn­ ing iiower will be suflicient to pay their expenses and enable them actually to save money.” This plan ia already actually carried out at Antioch, a small college town in Ohio, where the busines.s , men cooperate with "the college and the student works piu't of the time and studies part of tho time. T'hus wiiile at Prince­ ton the average yearly outlay for a son ia estimated at $1,500 while at Antioch the- average freshman needs only ?400 besicles his earn­ ings. The Vocational aims of students include agriculture, architecture, art, business, engineering, medi­ cine-, economics, law, etc, The average weekly wage -\vhile pursuing those courses is $22 in the freshman year and $35 in tho senior year. They complete the Antioch course in five years. 'J’hus the student has already learned the most important thing of all in an education, th'at. is, how to take care of himself.

G., March 8, 1928 “<}KANDa»A” SAYS— 5 “Due to the fact that everyone else is saying so much around 'here, I ain’t going ter talk this week.” W ill Rogers says Hoover is the only man he knows of since pro- bitioii came in who is for the drys and, yet is not against the wots. He says Hoover i.q making a bet­ ter politician than folks thought., Both the wots and i)he drys are studying him, W ill says, to And |out-whether he is really wet or 'dry. We note from the Uplift that the North Carolina Branch of the Kings Daughters has decided to enlarge tho beautiful little stone' ch'ttper at the Jackson Training school. That' order donated'tho attractive litt'io chapel to ^t'hat in­ stitution for boys, and now that it is inadequate to accommodate tho student body, more liberality i s ,manifested by enlarging it. Congratulations to Jackson Train­ ing'school and to North Caroiifia in that it has such a fino oi'der as the Kings Daughters. Strange'things do happen.theso days. A Minneapolis wife haa sued 'her hubby for $1,724.00, which ;amount she says he justly owes her for servicos as housd- : keeper during the past four years.. Not so uiiroasonable in her demand, is she? We know a lot of “hard boiled birds” whoso wives should sue for that much for just, one year’s servicos and then they would not be demand­ ing ; their just duas. And, then, tooii^^ve know some wives who as hoiisekeepérs, would not bo. worth ¡¡>250 'in eighty yoars. It all de­ pends, you know. A nèrvy little female bootleg­ ger was attacked on tho highway over which s'he v. na transporting a load of whiskey from Maryland to High Point.

So convinced are they that all will soon be ov­ er with this “mundane sphere” that they stopped their ciiildren from school, quit work, and de­ voted t'heir entire time to religi­ ous meetings. One would hardly think such a thing possible in this fine section, and yet if we are to believe the newspaper rejiorts such folks do reside right here near us. E.xperience is a dear r.chool, but it is. a good one, «lu! it will take just that school to enlighten these people.who are calmly waiting the end of the world. )Dire necessity will pos­ sibly make some of them think their end is not far off before they again come to their senses. ------------------------------«------------------------------- , Henry, Kerr, aged Shelby, hotel stewar(l, proved the kind of stuff of which he was made during the fire which tlestroyed the Shelby hotel recently. Awaking to find the hotel on fire, ho thought only of his sleeping guests, nnd going, from floor to floor, and from door to door, he aroused them all, but found that while 'he had saved others, he had failed to save him­ self. His way was cut oif so he could not escape in any other way thnn by jumping from tho third flopr of the burning structure. Ho lost his life, but, how many others did 'ho save by so doing? A hero? No greatei; ever forfei- t(jd his life in tho performance of duty. Duty. He stayed by it to the end. Love for his follows? "Greater love hath no man than this, thnt a man lay down his life for his friends." And what more could one say of Henry Kerr? OUR MOTOR MOLOCH The Metropolitan Lifo Insur­ ance Company estimates that motor vehicles last year killed more than 26,000 persons in tho United States and injured at least 1,000,000 more. Since 1920, fata­ lities have increased 67 per cent. The situation is growing steadily .Worse. .And the worst feature of all is , that chiTdren between the 'ages of five nnd ten years furnish the major portion of tho victims. Hero is (i problem for oach com­ munity to wrestle with, nnd one Worthy of the strongest effort. Many, perhaps most, of the deaths were caused by carelessness, lack of proper precautions. • Too many drivers and too many pedestrians are trying to boat the other fel­ low. Industry 'has cut down material­ ly the number of preventable ac-i cjdenta through safety campaigns o'f one kind or another and thr­ ough ajiplying common sense to remove- certain dangiirs. Now tho motor vehicle i.s demanding a greatoV toll of victims tlvan the machinery of factories and nulls.' Something must be done to curb the ai)pctito of the motor Moloch, ■ «11ч1 now . is the time to start.

A Wushington news dispatch of last week stiitud that General .lohii J. Pi’rshing is heading a (.•auipaign put: nn by his chiii'ch to r.'iise a liig I'lind for a iinspital.

I have nev­ er givcni anyone an oppovtunity to lose faith in' mo by 'el'ing what I have been told ii'i cl'iili- dence. Should 1 tell whnt know somebody would probably get in trouble. 'rhcreforo, I foel that it ia my public duty to discuss another im­ portant subject instead. A sub­ ject by the way that warrants al­ most as much publicity as tho po­ litical situation. The subject is that of choosing a suitable and congenial vacation ground, or place. Vacation time will soon be upon us, and every­ one indulges now. 'I'he burning question is: Not Avheh 1 shall take my vacation, but whore will I take my vacation? The average person is limited to something like a week in which he must ]iut enough fun to last him or her un­ til the next season rolls around. So you can readily see that it is indeed an important question. All the magazines and newspa­ pers aro full of places to go va­ cationing. This is not enough. Numbers of these advertised places do not suit certain people. . To give a concrete example, I got picked up one time myself. It was directly after the World War. I had a week in which to take my vacation and forty dol­ lars beside my ticket hither and thither. Limited spondulicks, but you must remember that I was just aiiorting my first pair of long trousers then. S o 'fa r as that goeSj howevor, I know plenty of places one may have a ripping and vainglorious time now for that amount. Well, I listened to n fellow whom I had reasons to believe wag my friend, but, as it turned out, he had it in for me; and so advised me in order to get in his dirty work niftily. The supposed friend advised me to go to a certain noted sum­ mer resort. I acted speedily up­ on tho said atlvice, and was soon installed at the said advised sum­ mer resort. To begin with, there was not anything there to amuse one ex­ cept scores of old.,women. I took my meals at- a tablo wltih seven elderly women— nnd old enough to be my grandmother., I had on­ ly scarcely finished my first meal at that place 'bofore my dignity and pomp9Us demeanor suffered a I considerable shock, Each of the , eldei'ly women incuired of me in a very polite manner what my first name was. I told them. From then on during the bal­ ance of the time I was there, the elderly women rattled my name continuously during oach meal from the time the blessing' was said until tho dessert was ilnisli- e;l. The c()i',versation w ould go sometiilng like this: “A young man of your charac­ ter, Charles, should consider the ministry very seriously and in tears before making up your mind upon any other career, don’t you think, Mrs. Snofhookum?” “By all means, Mrs. Doolon- hookn; he is just the typo to make a fine minister. You re- inombcr my son Who died, don’t you? Char|c.s ia just liko him, don’t you think? My son was planning to enter tho ministry at tho time he was cut off by death in th& flower of his sweet young manhood. I don’t believe that I .shall ever get over it, but of ■ n I Kuppose it was, all for the best,” i ■! ' ’i uurtainly it was, Mrs. Snoof- hookum, you know there aro so many inystcrious things that wo poor mortals can not understand. I am sure, however, that things work out for the best. Yes, I do think Charle,s should be a minis­ ter, Have you ever thought of it seriously, Charles?” I “Why no. Ma’am, can’t say that, 1 have. Not that I recall,” I re­ plied as best I could, j “Well I do know!” gasped wil seven o f the ladies in one voice. Mrs. Meddlesomestool then took me in charge. Said she: “Why, Charles, rea'Ily 1 am sur­ prised. You say you have never seriously considered the minis­ try! Well, you let a middle-aged. ■ lady give you some motherly ad-j vice. Get down on your knees and plead ^I'or gijidaiioe every night, until you have been shown the light. It’s ynur duty.” “But I don’t think that I am cut out for a minister; all my friends say so.” “Now you,” cooed Mrs, Bleddle- somestool,” you have beon listen­ ing to false friends. They were not your friends at all. And be­ sides “cut out” is a very inele­ gant way of expressing yourself. You should also strive to use bet­ ter English, don’t you think? Re­ member we are all interested in you. What we .s^ay, we say only in the spirit of deep humility and by the prompting of the spirit of kindness, hoping that we may be the means of guiding your young lifo where it will count fcir tho , most,” j "Alright,” I said,” I’ll be a minister. I suppose it is my call­ ing, one of'm y ancestors was. It got still worse after that, I was always introduced by all these good I'adies, as: “tho young man who is going to be a minis- I ter.” ! Needless to say. I' regro*od to be compelled to tell this sti'otch- er, but I was in close quarters and had to get relief. So I Con­ sented to be a minister just for the time being. After my return home, it was not long until various school teachers who had to deal with mo, were predicting quite fre- (juently that I would be hanged before I was twenty-one. There you :are. Both sides were mistaken, I 'have escaped both of those fatos. The point is, my vacation was absolutely ruined that year. As , a result, from that date to the present I have always elected to go on onmping trips when vaca­ tion time rolled around. From personal experionce, I therefore admonish ,vou, gentle reader, to take no one’s advice about vacationing, but, instead, go to the place whore your spirit moves.

Well, listened to a follow whom I had reasons to believe was my friend, but, as it turned out, he had it in fOr me; and so advised me in order to get in his dirty work niftily. The supposed friend advised me to go to a certain noted sum­ mer resort. I acted speedily up­ on the said advice, and was soon installed at the said advised sum- To begin with, thero was not anything there io amuse one e.x- cept scores of old, women. I took my meals at. a table wiDh seven elderly women— and old enough to be my grandmother. .1 had on­ ly scarcely finished my first meal ing, one of'm y ancestors was.” It got still worse after that. I was always introduced by all tJhese good kdies, as: "the yoiing man who is going to be a minis­ ter.” Needless to say. I' regro*ed to be compelled to tell this stretch­ er, but I was in close quarters and had to get relief. So I con­ sented to be a minister just for the time being. After my return homo, it was not long until various school teachers who had to deal with mo, were predicting quite fre­ quently that I would be hanged before I was twenty-one. There you 'are. Both sides wero mistaken, I 'have escaped both of those fatos. The point is, my vacation was absolutely ruined that year.

For an instant the hand remained thus. Then it receded, ‘ grasped the lowed edge of tho opening as if supporting a body, let go and disappeared. The girl sat back, seriously dis- .turbod. Her first thought had been that a seaman wns overside on some dangerous duty, that he was swept away. She would have given the lalarm. But she had re­ strained .herself on a positive per­ ception that the hand ■ waa not ' torn from its grasp. It had de­ liberately let go. And there had been no cry. The girl laughed uncertainly in a growing‘appreciation of this last circumstance. The apparition had been silent as a ghost. Was it really a hand at all, or only a dream? It seemed very real, but she’d had only an instant. . . . Again Palmyra laughed; this time in musical mirth.

The normality of everything on deck had quieted her alarm. She was glad now that some instinct had kept her from exptoining. Of all on board she , alone knew. Palmyra began to giggle in the most juvenile fashion. “Never be­ fore," thought she, “except in the theatre or between the covers of a book, have I come within hail­ ing diatanco of adventure. But now, with the yacht scarcely out of sight of land, fa.acinating mya- hidden presence, neither Thura- toVi nor the others realized that her, to them, idle chatter held any purpose of return. They moved to go. And once more there came from out the dark that atoalthy wraith’ of aouud— intimidating, ■ ainiater. Midnight.

Raleigh.. Mareh 7.— The wool market will be better this spring than in the past two years is the cheering news that comes to sheep growers from some of the dealera. In a recent letter received nt State College from G. P. Williams, former sheep extenaion apecinliat in thia State, he says that the outlook for better prices this apring is very good. Wool from- piedmont North Carolina should bo worth 40 cents a pound or bet­ ter. while the mountain wool will likely bring bids of 46 cents or thereabouts. “The best information that wc I can give to farmers about handl- i ing thoir wool at ahearing time : this year, is to keep it free from I chafi" and dirt and (|uit .using the small feed bags for a’tuiling.it in," says Earl Hostetler, in charge ' of work wit); aheep at State Col­ lege. “We have found that wool , shrinks and dries out badly in' ' these small bags. In many cases, I it loses its natural aoftnesa. In ! jiiedmont and eaatern North Caro- I Una, the, best way to , store the i wool is to tie it up in large cot-i ton ahóets and cover it with oth­ ers. This will protect the staple from e.xoesaiye drying which leav- ea it harsh nnd unattractive.” ■ Mr. Hostetler atates that in a number of countiea, the sheen growers are pooling their wool with the farm domonstrntion agent who in turn gets bids from the various buyers. By selling in 'arge lota at a teatral point, bet­ ter pricea are secured. especi"llv when good care has been taken in ahearing. in keeping the wool clean and in keeping if carefully after ahearing. In view of the .better outlook for nvicos this anrinir. it will be- advisable to handle the wool with extra care this year, atatea Mr. Hostetler.

ХЯГ!^ ДЯ15$1ШВВШ7/й71Ш''.‘ Cotton and corn farmers have got their pow­ er problems solved by a true row-crop general- purpose tractor. Throughout the South they are flocking to own Farmalls and Farmall equip­ ment. In the past three years the Farmall has been sending mules and horses to market by the scores of thousands. The Farmall leaves nothing for animal power to do. It replaces eight mules on the average and handles every power job on the rovii-crop farm—plowing, tilling, planting, cultivating, haying, harvesting, belt work, etc. Because of its exclusive design, short turn, and high clear­ ance, and special 4-row planters, cultivators, and other fast-capacity equipment, the Farmall is revolutionizing cotton aud corn growing. Cultivating on a big scale by tractor. It takes the Farmall .to do it. The 4-row outfit cleans up the field at the rate of 35 acres a day in early goings over, and 50 acres a. day later cultivating. One rrian with his all-purpose Farmall outfit can handle up to 200 acres of in­ tensively farmed land \yithout a horse or mule on the place, That’s why Far- mall is producing cotton for 9 cents a pound on many farms. Farmall and the sweep rake handles hay on a big, fast sc-ale. .Often does away with the wagon and hay loader entirely. Besides planting jind cultivaling, the Far- mail can’t be beat at plowing and belt work. ^стстпшвазятча Let Us Demonstrate Farmall Operation To Уош* Complete Satisfaction, Put iu your cotton with a Farmall and a 2 or 4-row, planter and'you will plant 25 to 60 acres in an 8-hour day and it will be a cinch. Farmall equipment includes 2 and 4-row plan­ ters, 2 and 4-row cultivators, a 7-fobt mower, and you can add a 7-foot trailer, making a 14-foot cut, sweep rakes, middle busters, 4-row lister cultivators, beet tools, potato machines, etc. It plows two perfect fuirows. It does as perfect a job when it comes to belt work.Wç will help you equip to fit your needs. Use this most efficient combination of power and machines--and the Farmall will cut your productio i costs to rock- bottom, dqing a faster, better, more profitable job. FARMALL IN THE H.AY! One of the biggest advantages of Farmall farming is the fine'work it does in haying. It cuts a 14-foot swath. You can cut up to 50 acres | in a regular day this way.

K. Hudson, state agent in farm demonstra­ tion work nt State College. "We phould not plant cotton on land that will not make at least 1,000 pounds of seed cotton when pro­ perly fertilized. Poor land should be planted to legumes to be turn­ ed under until the land is fertile. On most farms the profits from i good land are consumed in paying 1 the losses from poor land.” Use only the good cotton land for cotton, sbntea'Mr. Hudson, in giving his seven .^points. The moist, ric'h bottoms, the extremejy etiff ctay and late soils should'be planted to other crops. Cultivate the crop before it is planted by giving good prepara­ tion to the seed bed. _ Fertilize liberally; from 600 to 800 pounds of fertilizer an acre will pay, a-profit under cotton..A good mixture for the coastal plain will innalyze 8-Б-3 and for the piedmont, 10-4-3. A top-dressing of nitrate, or other quick-acting ammonintes .should be applied at thé time of the first cultivation. ' Use good seed. The two lead­ ing varieties of cotton for North Carolina -are the Mexican Big Bòli and the Cleveland Big Boll. Plant early 80 that the crop may set its fruit as quickly as possi­ ble. This 'is a good boll weevil control measure. Leave the plants closer togeth­ er on the row. In rows three feet apart, the plants should be left eight to ten inches apart with two plants -to the hill. « Begin cultivation boforo the «otton is up snd cultivate fre­ quently throug^hout the se^nson. >10U S E M IC E œ N T R o T lT iu nv CONSTANT t r a p pin g Good results avc obtair.cj by the •imall, wor.;lun-b:i.so .snap traps and their low coat allows the use of a dozen or more of those at ono time. Use plenty of them, advises Mr. Stewart. Rebait and reset the traps each eve^ning and place them in such a manner that they will bo in the natural run­ ways of the mice. ' Fresh bait is essential, however and preferably should bQ tied to the trigger. Cake and fresh bread are always dependable baits but these should be varied with oth­ ers, such as cheese, fried bacon, sardines or nut meats. Additi­ onal attractions suc'h as sprinkl­ ing rolled oats or other cereals over the trap may be used. When the mice are numerous and it is advisable to control them on a large scale, poisons may be used. A simple method is to mix one-eighth ounce of strychnine with an equal quantity of baking soda and stir thoroughly into one quart of rolled oats or corn meal. A permanent''poison supply may be obtained ati д11: times by leav- inir this mixture exposed in out- of-way places; However, Mr. Stew­ art cautions that thia mixture s'hould be kept out of the reach -of children, domestic animals or irresponsible persons.

Itp. “GIVE ME A GARDEN” THE BEST GROCERIES at .the RIGHT PRICE ;Raleigh, |ilar,ch V.-'-House mice are, Hurious |)u»ts on most farms of’ North Carolina but may; bo - rather easily controlled by. con­ stan t,,trapping. "Mice should be destroyed nt every opportunity,” says Odom » Stewart, biologist at the' North Oai;olin'a S^ate College. “Their habit of living in homes and in, buildings where food and pro­ ducts are stored usually mean that their destructive tendencie.i sire intensiiiod. They often rid­ dle stored clothing, gnaw book bindings, cut holes in sacks of feed or seeds, pollute human food and attack growing plants.” The pe.sts :;irc 6isily tr.lppod or poisoned but in the home and on sm:ill farms or-'in business es- tablish»nents, they ,niay best be kept under control by trapping. So says one of the great teach­ ers and writers of America when asked why he has found life worth livi'ng. “Give me a garden,” sounds just as sweet to my ears as anything that can be mention­ ed in the way of recreation. I like to take a 'hike into the fields and woods; I like to trek through undiscovered ivilds and get a whiff of the oaone that conies from the fig tree and pine; I like to cut a path up the mountain side and just experience the thrill of a little danger. We all love to do the unusual, the new, the daring. But he who loves a garden finds a creative joy that has no bounds. We -are of the earth and will forever have a feeling akin lo it. “Not earth-bound” but "earth- nourished” ,we must be. My friend, plant a garden. For­ get your worries and find the healing power of mother earth and sky and sun.

Business was then good, plenty of money to spend, it seemed, and there was nothing else to do, it aopeared, but ride in a new car. Now new cars are all right, if you can afford them, or if you can pay your grocery bills, doc­ tor bills, garage bills, and all such bills that may occur, and then pay your, monthly payments on tho new car, too, you would be sitting pretty.

The market smashed all previ­ ous records in poundage by sell­ ing approximately four million pounds more than the record crop of 1920.

Of course» you didn’t. But there is sifch 0 law ' and it is full of teeth, the viola­ tion of which-is subject to a max­ imum punishment of $500 fine and; six months’ imprisonment. Some: person v/ith r. penchant for dig­ ging up unpleeoant things has brought this .statute to; light. It is in the United States Cri- , minai Code', Section 178, and roads as' follows: "No person shall make. Issue, circulate or pay out any hoto, check, memorandum, token or other obligation for a less sum than $1, , intended to circulate , as money or to be received ox* ,! used in Jieu of lawful money o f, the United States; and every per­ son so offending shall be fined not more than $600, or im|prÌ8onbd; not more than six months, or, both.’: , ,' ' Your first impression may bo that thia is ,one of thoae antiquat­ ed laws handed down from past centuries, but reading of the statue shows that it was duly passed by Congress and approved ,_ by the President on March 4, 1909. Tho 'date would sulffges't one of those jokof statutes which sometimes slip through on the> last day of Congresii. ■ In the 1927 statute book, an^ notation appears: "The ofTenao donouncedi” roads this annotation,- wl\oae authority in no less than the.

You needn’t atiirt worrying ovor what you are, going to do about it. The chances livi'o that if every person who has violated this, statute were brought 'into court, convicted and sentenced the maximum.

The fund originated in 1902 and it mounts each year. Interest now is accumulating rapidly, for there is no legal way to. dispose of the money. Prior to 1921, the interest was turned over to tho general fund, but that was held illegal. What will be done evo;-:'’Mlly with tho fortune is an official puzzle.

JEST STAR'rS ACTION Saigon, French Indio-China.— A government telegra]::(h opera­ tor at a lonely station in the Laos district, for a joke telegraphed to the next operator that an enor­ mous meteor had fallen near his station. Three hours l.atei- he re­ ceived a message “Communicated meteorite’s fall to governor, scien­ tific mission (leavinii^ at onco, guard meteorite closely.” The joke telegraphed back excitedly. “Aak scientific mission not to come, meteorite flew off again.” In 192G, North Carolina farm­ ers. planted 8<1,000 acres in sweet potatoes/ averaging 90 bushels to the acre. Although, only a small percentage grown were aold, yet, with,the price of $1.00 per buahel,' shows that sweet potatoes’ may be grown with profit. , At a recent meeting held at the Upper Coastal Plain 'I’est Farm, Rocky Mt., N. C,, it was brough out during the discussion that in order to grow sweet potatoes of uniform size and quality with a suflicient yield to be profitable, fertilizers should be used to bring this about. When planted on I soils v/ithout fertilization or with unbalanced fertilizers, the growth was uneven, the yield was poor nnd the number of potatoes to the hill of market size .were much smaller than where a fair amount of fertilizer was used in .propor- tipna suitable to make a large ■ yield in suflicient time so that the ; potatoes would mature and could [be harvested before killing fijosts occured. During the meeting, it wuij also brought out that the Ex­ periment Station authorities were recommending a fertilizer appli- ! cation for the sweet potato crop of from 600 to 800 pounds per acre of .a fertilizer analyzing 8 per cent phosphoric acid, 3 to 4 per cent ammonia and 6 to 8, por cent iiotaalr. I,t was' also rocom- moiuled that the nitrogen come from two or three sources, say one-half of tho nitrogen from cot­ ton seed meal ' or other' organic sources, while, the other half ahould bo supplied from sulphate o f ammonia dr nitrate of soda, •both of which are of great benefit in starting the plants growing quiickly, thelreby ;insunlrig early maturity. It is probably true that many farmers last year did not use-any fertilizer for their potatoes and where gro^vn for their use it mado little différence if the potatoes wore of uneven size and the yields were small, but where yields ahd market qualities count, it will surely pay to make a small investment in commercial fertiliz­ ers for growing sweet potatoes on a commercial scale. — W. P. YOUNG. Expdrt of 3,801 units of Dodge Brotiieis, cars and Graham Bros, trucks and commercial cars dur­ ing Febriiary set a rccurd for all time for that month for the com­ pany, according to oflicial figures just compiled by the company. The total of 3,801 units sold compares to '3,013 for . February 1927, and 3,472 for February 1926. The factory export output fe^’ February this year represents a gain of more than 26 per cent over February a year ago. Dodge Brothers, Inc,, views the increaaed sales volume as a r.e- flectipn of improved business con­ ditions and increased buying power in the foreign field. Deal­ ers of Europe and the British Isles placed large orders during the month for trucks and the Victory Six models. In anticipotion of a record breaking business this spring, production of cars and trucks in all plants of,Dodge Brothers has been adjusted to keep pace with domestic and foreign orders.

Raleigh, March 14.— 'I'ho first spray of tho .»eason and tho one to apply to both peach and aiiple treo.s early in tho spring is the delayed dormant apray uaed to combat scale insects aa well as aphids and plant lice. “In apraying peaches,” saya C. H. Bninnon ,extenaion entomolo­ gist nt State College, "the spray should be applied before tho buda swell. This will help to control leaf curl fts well ns the scale in- secta. The apray ia alao effective for apploa when applied juat aa green can bo seen in the tips of the buds.” Mr. Brannon states that oil .sprays have come into wide use in the delayed dormant sprays be­ cause the oil ia very effective in controlling acale and is alao more jileasant to apply. These oil spraya may be prepared by the Krowers at homo but unleaa they have a considerable number of trees, it ia best to buy some of the roady-prepared sprays now on the market. It is important, however, to get good spray material. The Krower should get authoritative information before buying his spray material for the season. In case tho peach trees are troubled with leaf curl, tho grow- '-'''s should use either lime sul­ phur alone or add the' Bordeaux mixture to an oil spray and ap­ ply before tho buds swell. Oils have no value in controlling plant di.seasoa, they ars efl'octive only with insects. i'lr. Brannon advises against «li.xing lime sulphur with oils un­ less the label on the oil container states that this can be done. As a usual thing the concentrated lime-sulphur solution will give i-'ood results las a idelayod dor­ mant spnvy but if there is much scale, the oils should be used. Those fruit growers who wish detailed information about this *^pi'ay should write to either C. IL Brannon, extehaion entomolo­ gist, or to G. W. Fant, plant di­ sease specialist, nt State College, iiither of these workers will be Slad to send ipublicationa dealing ■"'ith the metter. Tho farmer who increaaoa his acreage to cotton and tobacco and floes not provide some food for nis family and aome feed for his livestock will be out of luck this f«ll, says Tom Tarheel. В J. &p.

In addition to- tho many meetings hold, careful or- ganlzed work waa done with boys- and girla and men. and women: along the llnea in which they wanted information and help.

BRYAN M EM ORIAL FUND Charlotte, March 12. — North Carolina admirers of the late W il­ liam Jennings Bryan have con-1 days iributed approximately $45,000 toward the construction and en- xlowment of the Bryan Memorial University at Dayton, Tennessee, iibout $5,000 of this total coming from Charlotte.' In the Hst of twent.v-nine ■ .states from which contributions to the university . 3iave come so far, North Carolina stands fifth, from the standpoint of aggregate amounts •' given. Tennessee, Geprgia, Florida and New York, in the order named, / occupy the first four places on the list. ^ In the interest of the univer­ sity, B. Gerard Hartzog, repre­ sentative of the Bryan Memorial University Association, haa been working among ‘ known North Carolina friends of tho lato Com­ moner and expresses himself asi '^eing highly pleased with the re­ sponse ao far. Mr. Hartzog says 3ie finds many friends and ad- mirera of Mr. Bryan ■wiho con­ tribute readily to the memorial Sherwood Anderson, Ihe.l'amous novelist, has bought a country weeiily in Marion, Va., and has settled down to a life of quiet. It is e.xactly what he has been looking for, he declares, for many years. In a small town like Marion, where he knows everybody and everybody knows him, he finds life to his liking. At noon time, for instance, everybody goes home to dinner— they still call it dinner there— and in the afternoons as he goes home, people greet him with a friendly nod and saluta tion. He recently made an appeal for the town band, and as the Balti' more Sun records, got results: “What is a town without a good band?” he inquires in a front page editorial entitled “Join the Glory List.” ‘"iThis camiVaign," Andei'son writes, "is not undertaken for any altruistic purpose. It’s just be­ cause we like to hear the band piny; we like to see them parade, When a big 'day comes we like to .see them put on their, uniforms and come blowing their heads off up Main street. ‘'Flags flying, everyone feeling fine. Life is drab enough on oi’- We have never found any way to be a canary bird ourselves. W hat we want is to see the band boys have a little money in their treasury. We want band concerts on summer nights. “Oh, hearts of gold, who will put up $5 a year over a period of five years to get and keep our band iri bang-up financial condi­ tion?" Otto H.

During the most Important period of growth ot southern agrloulture, ospe- clally In thn central and lower south, relatively few livestock wero kept and mainly the livestock on forms was limited to the necessnry work stock and a cow tor producing tho family's milk and butter requlromonts. Ot course, 0 tow poultry^ wero kept, though tho production ot poultry and oggs rorerly exceeded the tomlly’s need and nover anything like fully supplied {hq demand in tho local towns and cltl'os. Livestock, therefore, as on Import­ ant feature or phoso ot form produc­ tion wos, until comporotlvoly recent­ ly, pjractlcttlly unknown In tho best duvulopod farming soctlona of tho con­ trai and lowor South. TUla aoctlon, theroforo, has bOBD and Is yot in need of education along tho linea ot tho value of Ilvoatock raising In connoc- tloii with crop-making. Particularly Ih' this truo wltii rosp‘oot to tlio' ad- vontoeos from tho standpoint ot en­ riching form landa, marketing grain und torogo most oconomicolly, reduc­ ing production coats through bottor la­ bor distribution and reducing living coats 'tor the people on tho farm. If livestock production Is givon a prom­ inent place In tile farming progrom. Tho underlying principles In llvo- 3tock production and tho value of ilvo- iitock In any farming program aro be­ ing studied and have been glvon con- jldoratlon In recent yoars oa evidenced l)y the extent to which livestock farm- ng Is already carried on upon south­ ern farms. One fllmplo thing which aouthorn (armors do not seem to approdato with reapect to the forming bualnesa Is that profltablo aad satisfying sno- oas cannot be realized from poor, worn out, eroded lands. Only rich anda can bo aucceasfully and proflt- ibly formed. Lands, It la true, may 10 enriched wllhout livestock and es- .leclolly Is that truo In tho South,'but ho difficulty In this connection la liiit loo tow farmers will go about tho nnttor ot so handling their lands as to nvlch thorn and maintain them In. o ¡¡.'•■llily productive state without such '■.’Kent noccaslly as exists when the '.rming policy Includes livestock and ^ll'íl callB for food, which means a ro- i.:lon o( [lolds and diversification of .'ip production.

Wo believe that a very groat proportion ot tho mon engaged'In farming In tho South al this time have roallned tho advan­ tages of mixed farming and of a sys­ tem of farming that Includoa livestock production. We believe that even though cotton prices uro high com­ pared with last year and granting that the morkot may go higher, those farm­ ers already carrying on dairying', Jior raising, sheep raising, beef cattle pro­ duction, etc., will maintain tholi' Ilvo- Btock raisins enterprises and evon expand them and that the ottect of the rising prlco of cotton In 1027 will prove an exception and th(it no longer will men bo. able to say that because of tho high cotton market you may expect to sea formers loao Interest In livestock.

The best previous Chev­ rolet month was May, 1927, with an outlet of 115,Ci23 units. Pro­ duction 'bhis February shows m 3G ,per cent gain over the 85,817 cars and, trucks built last February, and is more than four times the 28,081 units built in February, 1925. Domestic retail deliveries for this period are estimated at 80,- 000 units aa against 58,233 in February, 1927. ' Since introduction of the Big­ ger and Better Chevrolet on Jan­ uary 1, previous records have been consistently shattered before the buying enthusiasm displayed throughout the world. A large number of cars now being built are going into the export marltet to meet the demand for the new Chevrolet evident in every country on the globe. The fourteen domestic Chevro­ let plants are operating 'on full time to keep production on an even keel with orders piling up. Day and night shipments are go­ ing out from the, seven assembly plnnts in tho United States to keep dealers everywhere stocked with an ample number to assure prompt delivery. March promises to out-do even tho high figures sot during Feb­ ruary. . _ . As February volume set new , records, ao Jnnuary production j and sales exceeded by a wide ^ ■ margin lany similar performance 11 for the month in the history of g the. company.

The chiovement of building near­ ly a quarter million new cars in 80 short a space of time has never been duplicated in the history of the Indusitry. As la result of the reception the new car is receiving, which made possible the new records so far established in 1928, unbounded enthusiasm existed throughout the Chevrolet orgnnizntion.

W itliin the ’ boundaries there are no les.s- than i 18 ptaks and many miles of divide * that are 0,000 or more feet above i sea level, ofiicial geological sur-1' veys show. I The unrivalled quality of these , mountains in height as compared with others in eastern North Amo-1 I'ica may bn roaliznd by tho fact i that from the farthest northern stretcvh of tlie Aiiplachlans in eastern Canada to the southwest­ ern boundary of Virginia— three fourths the length of the range —^thore is only ono peak.

All the peaks are timbercovered. The verdure of the new park will be one of its greatest glories. Forests of alt Europe are said to have but 85 species of native trees; f)he Smoky fore.sts, accord­ ing to North Carolina botanists, have 127 species of native trees and 174 varieties of shrubs. Many of tho trees are six feet or more in diameter and tower 150 or more feet. They are older than'the paternal government that M’ill protect them in tho future. Mouni;ain jttreams tumblting down the sides of the high peaks make beautiful falls. Rainbow fall, half way up the Lee Conte mountain trail, drops 81 feet and is of unsurpassing beauty.

It finally solves the riddle of corn crop power It is designed to plant arid cultivate the corn on a generous scale, 2 or 4 rows at a time, cleanly and evenly done, at a rate of up to 50 acres in an 8-rhour day It is the first tractor to make it possible to do away with horses on the row-crop farm. Special equipment developed to work with this tractor adds to the speed and the perfections of crop handling with the farmall. Two and 4-row planters and cultivators, mowers, sweep rakes, middle busters, 4-row lister cultivators, beet tools, and potato machines—all are made to use with the Farmall.

Fii'st of all, we can plainly see У iiis letters that he has very i'ttle respect for our ministers in lie city, who arc supposed to be Im shepherds of the church, and he members the sheep. Sh'oph- I'ds iire supiiosed to load their oclcs ill the paths of righteous- e.s.4, for His Name’s sake. Minis« era are supposed to load in all hat is good «nd condemn all that s bad. But to their shame, they an sometimes be bought by such dictator as L’losregoni, (I truly lopo it hasn’t happened in tho natter of boxing and wrestling in ,ur High School gym.) Second, he has little respect or character building. There is othing in boxing or wrestling hat will build a real Christian havacter, (or a moral character). , character built on any J’tunrda- ¡6n other ,tl)an a Christian -one is kenod unto the house which 'vvas iiilt on the sand.

But if I had boon ii'luiiato enough to have gone to lollege, and unfortunate enough liavc had my honrt nnd brain loiaoned with such rot as some ho havo gono havo been, then I lavii more to bo thankful for than know liow to thank. When ,I Be our young men and women irned out of what we call Chris- an Colleges and come home or 3 elsewhere «nd poison the minds our little children, and older nth, for that matter, лvith such uff as wrestling and boxing be- iig good for th •n, it makes mo lioud that I am not able to send my children to any of these so- -;;allod Christian colleges. I am sure that tho Lord must feel vory I much a.^hnmed of tho way His ’ name and Book are u.sed to give a few privileged people an educa- , tion, who, in turn, lead the little ones (of whom He said, “Suffer little children to come unto me, I for such is tho Kingdom of Hoav- '■en.”) into every worldly lust that can be imagined under the name of “Christian EcTucation.” The greatest trouble I have over found in tho rearing of my children and in trying to train them in tho way they should go, I is that this stuff you call sports can tear down in one hour what . it takes a mother the best part of her life to build up. Then the remainder of her years must be ' heart-broken ones. I hope you understand thnt there is more I than ono way for these school I sports to break a mother’s heart. It is surprising how many lunch dimes are lost in our schools every week on these sports. Even the little follows bet their marbles on some game. Many of our child­ ren form thoir first ideas of gamb­ ling ,at the sportiiig rinks of our public schools. Then the pai'ents are scorned for it, when in real­ ity. the school systems are furn­ ishing all kinds of apparatuses to f'oi'm things with, from a bird made to soap to a character like W illiam Edward Hickman. Wo aro turning thom out every day. Well, L’loarogeni, you have my opinion on our school sports and also on our educational system. Now we'll go back to facts and figures. Aa you already know, I believe in majority ruling. You say we have seventy-nine ministers in our city (I nm glad to know that. I never had time to count them.) Those ministers represent all de­ nominations in the city, and should represent every church member. Then if they represent all church members, which if I am not badly mistaken goes some­ where about 40,000 (those figures are guess work. I have forgotten what the nctual religious census is.) Anyway, I am sure it was more than a thousand and one, which would be eight hundred American Legion members, two hundred Lion Club members and L’losregoni. You say with the American Le­ gion and the Lions Club ahd your­ self the majority has won for box­ ing and wrestiing in the High School, I would like you to know i another point. that we can not servo God and the devil, too. Wo must lose one or tho other. Wo can’t oven bo half and half. ' Its all or nothing. 'Phere is only one thing that I hold against ministers. They never openly oppose boxing and wrestling in our schools. If those ministers are true followers of Josus and Hia teachings, they can not favor. Of cour.“e-, if they are preaching because it meana 'a good living, -an automobile every two or throe yeara ,and a good education for their children at someone else-’s exponae, that is that there aro a few women in the: city as woll as men, and eyery child that ia trained in the city schools has a mother. This'isn’t the first mistake the American Legion haa made. Be­ cause a few of tho members meet at lunch every week does not spell that the majority of our war vet- A conference such as is being held never should have boon held behind closed doors. It looks very’ suspicious, my dear minist­ ers. If it was the above men­ tioned luxury that kept you from voicing your opinion openly, then hell will bo so full of preachers that the boxers and wrestlers -and erana want boxing and wrestling, all tho other worldly lust seekers Our real war veterans saw enough , can’t get near enough to the flre brutality in the war without pay-; to get warm, ing an admission to see it. M ost. L’losregoni, I am not reading a of them h-ad enough excitement Ladies Birthday Almanac or a free.

If it is the inspired word have been sntisfying to the moth- of God and His only begotten son, ors of' our school children. ’ Jeaus Christ, I don’t see how I Then hero comes L’losregoni can be wrong. If it is not tho with the good newa that tho Lions Word of God and tho teaching of Club favors the above spovt in Jesus Christ then I am the- goat tho school of our city; I don’t and anything that our children know how many Lions there aro I aro taught is all -right— no mat­ in the city.

C., March 22. 1928 States pnoducea twelve tons of cereals although the average cereal production for each farm worker in the rest of the world is only one and two-flfths tons. Each American farm worker on the average, is feeding nine peo­ ple besides himself in this coun­ try and one more person in some foreign land. Some countries produce more crops per acre than we do. but none produces so much for each farm worker. GRANDPA SAYS— "It won’t be long now— The Re­ publican Convention is called for the 24th. an'd I am just waiting to see wh,at will happen.” ■ Some of our readers will doubt­ less recall our recent editorial, entitled: “Had Your Teeth Pull­ ed?” In that editorial we made the statement that in our opinion there were entirely too many teeth teing extracted, too many tonsils being taken out. and too many ap­ pendixes removed, and we admon­ ished i:he use of common sense, castor oil and Epsom Salts. Of course, we did not pose as a medical expert, nor as an autho^ ity on mediftal science, and we so stated in 'substance. But • what we -advised was based on a com­ mon a&nso viewpoint. Yet, we apparently made a pretty fair ahot,, although Dr, Jnmes M, liorthlngton. Editor of Southern Medicine and Surgery published in Charlotte, did call us on the castor oil question, yet he dopa agree with "the flrslUwine tenths"' •of the editorial. And ,sinco wo would do anything else than mis­ lead anyone in matters of health, Although we did not ■recommond ;,;oaatoi'; oil ."pr’i EpspmiJ •■Siiilta '.for; cases of acute appeiidicitia, wo are going to take tho liberty of reproducing Dr. Northington’a letter, in full, that those who read our editorial «may get hia vlew- •point, and we would certainly say that ho ia an authority cn such mattera. Here’s what he wrote, ’ '¿fter hia introductory paragraph in which ho atated that he agreed “'with the flrst nine tenths” of the editori'al on ‘‘Had Your Teeth Pulled?” ;“ No one urges more vigorously than I that we set oursolves flrm- ly agalnat fadiam, and use our common sense. I nm in entire aj;reement with you that too many ; teeth, appendixes and tonsil.s are Ijoing removed. This part parti­ cularly applies to so-called chro-1 ■nic appendicitis. A great number ■of good doctors believe that there ^ Is no such thing PS chronic, ap­ pendicitis. ! "I feel it my duty, though, to point out'tn.you the fact that' acute apperi'cliciti.' is a very real * ■and dangerous thing, that it is | -fairly common, that it is frequent- i ly impossible to say in the be­ ginning of a belly pain that it is i not appendicitis, nnd that tho giving of Epsom salts and castor ■oil enormously increase the pro- Isability of a fatal outcome. j ‘‘I am confident that you will he eager to amen:! your editorial in this regal’d. Thus amemletl I feel sure that your edjtorial will . do much to increase the happi­ ness of your people and .save both i money and lives.” | Now while we may ’ not have i “been entirely correct in every- ‘ thing, yet we think for a mere ' corn-bread, country newspaper i editor to make a shot so broad and hit. in the estimation of such ! lofty authority, nine tenths the truth, is not bad. FIGURES W ITH A PUNCH Not a Dirty Pig Ono of the long-standing be­ liefs is that the hog is a dirty creature by instinct as well as by training; In fact, the expression, "dirty as a pig” has come to be accepted as the only proper way to describe the uncleanly. But it appears from results ■gained by farmers who have giv­ en their pigs a chance to be clean that the animal is more to be pitied than blamed. These farm­ ers report that they have found the pig to be as cleanly as any other farm animal. The trouble is he is seldom given a chance to prove it. Given clean pasture land to feed on, a chance to get regular baths, and clean bedding, the pig will be clean, they'iny. Further­ more, he will be healthier and will grow faster. A Drqam Fulfilled A dream that everyone who has over left his home town has hnd .it some time or other, if he would but admit it, came true the other* day for Thomas Merritt out in Blanchard, la. Mr. Merritt returned, after an absence of forty-five years, to'his old homo town rich and openhnnd- ed. Ho hunted up his boyhood playmates and told them to get ready for a real reunion with Mr. Merritt footing the bills. And it was a real reunion. They killed the fatted calf and a couple of cowa. , Here are some of the things thnt happened, nccording to the newa reports:. He i invited all members of the Klwania .Club to be his gueata at hia summer re- sórt, .‘Ntii b ouyou,’- on Lake Su per- ior, and promised to pay all ex-' pionsoa Including,railroad fare; he iiriported special talent for n spe­ cial radio program at KMA, Shen­ andoah, and sent each of the 800 persons who told him how much thoy enjoyed the program pound boxes of chocolntes; he bought diit ¿11 the articles belng[ sold at a ladies bazaar in a town nearby, gave thè womeit a check for near­ ly double the amount they expect­ ed to realize, and told them to wrap up the articles and ship them to his homo in Duluth, Minn. Mr. Merritt decided Blanchard hadn’t just grown fast enough and told the residents he intended to boost the town just as soon as he returned from a business trip. But the story hasn’t a happy ending. On the trip. Mr. Merritt was tiU<en with pneumonia and died in n few days. A son says he intends to carry out most of the promises made by his father. And Mr. Merritt, at any rate, saw one of his dreams come true. THOUSANDS SEND SLOGANS DESCRIBING PERFORMANCE OF NEW VICTORY SIX The New Ford Coach—The world has waited to see i VANDERBILT BACK HOME W ITH RARE SPECIMENS ' Statistics ordinarily aro dry reading.'but not always.

Each farm worker in the United Thousards of rides in the Vic­ tory Six are already resulting in thousands of slogans in the $20.- 000 contest of Dotige Brothers. Inc., this month to find the slogan that best describes the perform­ ance of the car. The contest closes at midnight. Mareh 31. From every state in the union and many foreign countries, let­ ters are pouring into the Dodge Brothers iDetroit plant. Many are from Victory Six owners, but the great majority are from own­ ers of other cars who have re­ ceived a demonstration in a Vic­ tory Six from a dealer or sales­ man. Any one is eligible to ent­ er the contest except employees of Dodge Brothers, thoir dealers, service men and their families. The only requirements are that slogans must be submitted after a demonstration in a Victory Six, must be ten words or less in length, and must be mailed not 1 liter than March 31. A total of 708 prizes will be awai'ded. with a first prize of $1,000. Various features in the per­ formance of the Victory Six are forming the basis for the slogan.s. Some describe the power, others the engine ilexibility while others are impressed with the low cen­ ter of gravity -and unique body construction that make for ease of '-iding and control. Dealers are I'eporting unusual iniererit .'in tlio'ir territory ove.? the contest. Entire families are submitting slogans, and many are submitting more than one, ap­ parently not being satisfied with a single impression. Miami, Fla., March 16.— W il­ liam K. Vanderbilt II, millionaire yatchman nnd dillentnnte scien­ tist, docked here Friday after a two month cruise in Equntorinl Pacific- waters with a good-sized menagerie of rare animal speci­ mens aboard his yacht Arn. lAc- compnnying him were Mrs. Van­ derbilt and Commander ' H. H. Lane, U. S. N. Chnrles Islnnd, still showing trncea of the settlements of.pir­ ates who formerly mnde head­ quarters there for operntions in the,Pacific, was visitod. Colcanoa In that group which were active during Vanderbilt’s Inat cruiae in thoae waters now are dead;; he said. • V The most .valiinble of hia vnried lot of prizes were two pnira of nn nlmoat extinct species of fllght- nesa cormornnts, vicious birda be­ lieved never before to hnvo been captured alive, nnd alx grent mountain-going gnlnpngos tortoia- es. One of the Intter hnd been cnptured before, Mr. Vnnderbilt snid, but did not live to rench tho United States. • Three tiny, nbsurediy strutting penguins, land and sen iguanas, nnd vnrl-colored birds and fisli made up tho rest of the collec­ tion. The voyage was ,by no means Vanderbilt’s first venture into the specimen collector’s field. He la credited with diacovery of a num­ ber of new species of fish in the course of cruises devoted to deep sea trawling. The Arn carries equipment for fishing in mile-deep water. " Vanderbilt said he found a few Norwegians and Ecqundorinns living on tho former Pirate Islnnd and making a precarious liveli­ hood trying to herd the wild des­ cendant.^ of the cattle and other domestic animals taken there by tho Buccaneers. Fish were so tame they could be taken with the hand, he saicl. “It seemed n shnme to tnke them,” he declared, ‘‘and we killed no more thnn necessary to take new ■I'pecimens.” No time was lost in getting most of the specimens off the Ara after she docked at Vanderbilt’s private cruising base. The yatchs- man said they made so much noise that sleep on board with them was next to impossible. Ex'perlenced tobacco growers are of the opinion that only good yields of high quality weed will, pay this year in view of the pro­ posed expansion in planting.----------«--------- , Fruit, growers of Alexander county will organize a county as­ sociation to promote the growing and marketing of high grnde ap­ ples, penches nnd other fruits. Probnbly the next great boon for the common people will be the invention of an electric can opener. JUST RECEIVED OUR SECOND car of Purina Poultry and Dniry feed.-rC. C.

Weaver, agricultural engineer at State College. “Even the aimp- lost, consisting of only a pitcher pump ntia sink in the kitchen with a drain for carrying away the waate,. will cut down the hard work nnd long hours in this work shop,” Mr. Weaver states that a good pitcher pump nfiay bo secured for three dollnra,. n force pump ¡at nine dollars nild a sink at ton and with pipe and flttinga as rdaaon- able in price as they are, there is little reason for the farm homo not to have at least one of the inexpensive systems. The pitch­ er pump can not be used effective­ ly if the water .level of the well la over 22 feet below the level of the kitchen sink. Another form of lift pump may be. used how­ ever, and it costa but littlo more than the pitcher pump. A alight nddition to thia ayatem in the form of a barrel or tank placed on the ceiling joists and with a connection to the sink will relieve the houso-wife of most of the pumping. A day’s supply mny be stored in n few minutes time and can be instantly nvnilnble by the simple opening of n fnucet. To improve the system still furth­ er, the water front in the kitchen stove can bo connected to a hot water tank and then both hot and cold water will be available. Mr. Weaver atates that every woman on the farms of North' Carolina is entitled to thig simple relief from the drudgery of car­ rying water and emptying waste. With the systems available at so little cost, husbands, sons and fathers should arrange it so that this can be done. c b n i'e iT nevvs Mr. and Mrs. Turner Tutterow spent the week end in Greensboro with relatives.

I was some "early dark, and my husband was Wayward wind of idle fancies, three weeks getting ready for the already there. I flopped down on lead Us on once more party.

I{, was hia ambition for me to be the best- <Iressed woman in town. This of course suited my' taste also. It as though my heart would break.

"Why. bless your little old sweet heart of sugar, not You got the best looking pair of legs of any woman in town. Now tell me what you are crying for, anyway.” So I just blurted out and told my husband everything. He kiss­ ed me nnd said not to pay any at­ tention to what old Mrs. Bootum said, that she didn’t count, nny- to feel the soft sensation that the fine silks, etc., produced upon my lovely skin. . To continue with the party, however, I had our negro chauf­ feur, Sambo, to drive me over to the homo of the lady who was en­ tertaining. I will not call her лате, as ypu know already, but everything was very gorgeous and lovely. You know how you are welcomed at the door by some es­ pecial frlenil of the hostess. Well, ЯВ it so happened, one of my bit-, terest enemies waa doing the wel­ coming, and I was tickled at that, because she had a fine opportün- ' Jty to observe my new outfit. I saw her glancing sidewise at my pink colored silk hose, which, by the way cost six dollars and aev- ^entjr-flve cents. And I heard her ebate on a previous occasion that she never paid over three ‘dollars for hose. I could fairly, see the envy tinging her cheeks, but of course she didn’t say anything.. After passing through the re­ ceiving line, I was escorted into the dining room, v/here cake and cream were served. I noticed sev- , eral ladies in the dining room as they glahccd _at my new clothes. Most all of the other ladies were wearing 'dresses that I hnd seen them with before. To tell the en­ tire truth, I supposé I was the chief feature of the party. After listening to a number of ■ .flelections by tho quartette, I pro­ ceeded to the last room, thé room where they tell you goodbye, you Itnow. And it was hero that I re­ ceived, the greatest insult of my : life. Eeally, I have never heard such brass before in all my life. Old Mrs. Bootum was in the mus­ ic room and tho door happened to be slightly ajar, and I heard her eay to another lady : “If I was as boлvlegged as Mrs. Probably the next great boon A (which was myself), I certaijj- for the- common ^people will be ly would wear my dresses a little the invention of an electric can shorter.” Really, I heai4i every opener.

L. Cle­ venger, dairy manufacturing spe­ cialist at State' College. “This Was an increase of 23 per cent over 192G. At an average price of 44 cents a pound paid for the butterfat u.sed, the creameries paid $816,800 to the 10,400 farm­ ers supplying this fat. The four cheese factoiries in -western North Carolina also paid .'¡>17,700 to 110 farmers for milk used in manu­ facturing 88,500 pounds of Ame­ rican cheese. Production of this product was increased 13 percent over the previous year.” The 32 commercial ice cream plants paid $150,000 for milk and $428,350 for the butterfat used in the manufacture of 2,600,000 gallons of ice cream last year, states Mr. Clovonger; "The 12 pa.sturoizing plants paid $1,600,- 000 tor the five million gallons of ing market for whole milk.

As tho yacht was to put John Thurston aboard a Philippine transport at Guam, only a little southing, said the hostess, would take them in among tho Gilberts, the Marshalls, the Carolines, that Milky Way of ■atolls along the Line of which Ponape Burke had talked so al- luringy. What Mrs. Crawford did not explain was that the real duty, as she saw it,' lay in depriving Thurston’s long legs of a chance, in this less- cramped setting of Honolulu, to snap back to per­ spective. By rejecting both her lovers— Van shortly after John— Palmyra had gained n reprieve from that question as to whether she were in lovo with one man or - just dandy good pal^s,with two. The peaks of Oahu sank back into the moana, tho deep, doop ocean, whence they had risen. 'One day, two days, four, six up­ on a temperamental sea; a whole week of heavy skies and rain and storm seemed to have carried the girl no further. A second week'came and went; a week of summer sea and lusty trades and fiying yacht. But still no answer. The third week came and neared its end. Intermittent now the breeze, for they touched the equ­ atorial zone of light and variable airs. A wholei day through, per­ haps, the Rainbow would scarcely move. Slpwly, unconsciously. Palmyra had been reaponding to the condi­ tions created by the wily, Mrs. Crawford. As the breeze, with each 'knot of westing, had been sinking more dangerously into the doldrums, the breath of her on feeling had stirred, risen fresh, fair, constant, until it reached the deep sweep of a maiden’s first acknowledge love. Gladly she waa confessing it now, thi.s belated recognition of love for the man of her parents’ choice. Van Buren Rutger. 1 And-she.must have treated John Thurston abominably. W ith each moment that she gave herself more convincedly up to love, her pity for Thuraton grew. But луЬеп, on tho twenty-sec­ ond evening out from Hopolulu— tomorrow they were to sight their first atoll— thu hour came for tho formal announcement of her be­ trothal, the g-irl was ‘radiaintly happy. True, at the moment when Mrs. Crawford spoke, it was upon the face of John Thurston that Pal­ myra’s eyes rested, and ahe could but wince at tho flash of pain there revealed. But no girl in love can, on her betrothal night, long be unhappy over the face of a rejected auitor. So it was, that night, as Pal­ myra lay asleep in hor stateroom, her body gently movirtg with the lift and fall of the yacht in the mid-Pacific calm, there was a tender smile upon her lips. And the tender smile was still lingering, in an alluring warmth and aweotness anH beauty, when the iRainbow, caught all unaware by a audden squall, came down with a crash upon the teeth of a reef— that ahould not have been there. On a craft such as the Rainbow interest naturally centers about the navigation. W hat better then for Mrs. Craw ford in her amiable intrigue than to set up Van Buren Rutger as a gentleman navigator? How moro pleasantly important than handsome, graceful, jaunty in his white uniform he poised with sex­ tant to take the sun or bent over the charts with Constance and tho Wampolds and Palmyra? In so feahring Van. as a yacht- man— ho was no more than a fair­ ly competent amateur— the hos­ tess had meant that Pedersen In tho back ground should unosten­ tatiously check up on his work at every point. But. . . . The aailing master was n man vain, solf-imporbant jealous of his prorogatlvea, touchy as to hia dig­ nity. Not underatanding Mrs. Craw­ ford’s motive, he chose to regard the arrangement as an imputation upon hia seamanship, hia fitne.*«»— which, he himself doubted— longer to command. Van soon discovered then that this sick 'nnd sulky old man waa only making an outward show; In reality having nothing what­ ever to do with the navigation, leaving tho fate of tho yacht ab­ solutely in Van’s own lianda. A certain inability to take a stand in anything unpleasant, difiicult, to make up his mind and act in an, emergency, kejit Van at firat from telling the hostess. Later he continued with an ob­ ject. He know she did not truly rely on him in thia showy fraud of navigation; he suspected Pal­ myra waa not deceived. Knowing his own weakness, ho had tho (continued on page 8 ) * S. A. HARDING, M.

C. 14-Year Old Love Tragdey Of An Old Time Singing School (By Charles McSwain) Peter Parley stood trembling, ready to bound olT with great cel­ erity oi: foot to the nearby wood in event his mother prevailed up­ on his father to thrash him. Pe­ ter had Avorked that ruse upon several previous occasions. His father would be awfully angry at the time and for a few minutes jifterwai’ds, but he would forget all about it after the lapse of an liour or so. “Alright, John,” warned Mrs. Piirler to her husband, “spare the road and spoil the child, but yoiPlT reap what you sow; that Peter will be hanged on the giillows be­ fore he is twenty-one years old, and you will be the cause of it, too. “He is going to get drowned be­ fore the summer is half gone if he keeps on as he has started out. This makes the fifth time he has sneaked off and gone swimming in that Yellow Lake, and it’s over hi.s head from one bank to the other.” ¡'■’ather Johii Parley looked very menacingly at hia fourteen-year- old son and said; "Peter, the next time you slip off and go swimming in that Yel­ low Lake, I’m going to wear you out; I ’ve a good min'd to do it now, and I will if you ever do it ■again.” 1 Peter Avalked slowly away, rue­ fully rolling hia straw hat, look­ ing thoughtful. Through a haze he saw an ominous scaffold arise and a rope Avith a noose dangling therefrom, as conjured up by his alert mind. He felt llie crying,! but by strong power of will ho deferred tho matter. Peter Parley wna far from be­ ing a bad boy, but he waa f-ull of life, healthy, and over-alze for hia age. Ho woul'd rather go swim.- ming than to cat jam and that was therefore a great obsession with him. He had just usttun to think wryly of the girls but as yet had never had anything to do with them. He intended to how­ ever, during the next week when tho,\Binging school commenced at White Chapel. There would be more girls at the singing school than boys, anyway, and,if the op­ portunities offered, he had fully made up his mind to take advan­ tage of it. Next week rolled around and the singing school started. Peter Parley was there. He sat on a front seat and boro down upon the singing. Moat of tho singing waa that of the notes which wont "Go re me fa so la ce do.” Peter had been singing for on­ ly a few minutes when Madge White whoso Ancestors had built the church, came in and sat down by hia side. Peter 'didn’t dare look at her but he could feel her presence. Sho waa tho belle of the community and eighteen yeara old. He had not expected to get a girl .aa old as Madge, but that was all the better. She was no baby and would know how to treat a four-i teen year old fellow. She could talk. Came the noon recess and be-, fore Peter could get out of the church Ma'dge was at his aide and speaking to him, "You don’t have any lunch with you, do you Peter?” she queried. "No, faltered Peter, undecided whether to take to his heels or hold Ihia ground.__Somehow hia nerve had viiniahed, ,and he was all a-tremble. But he held his ground and did not move an inch, “You must come right with mo and eat with us,” said Madge. “Brother and I have just lots in the buggy.” Peter nodded,a quick inclina­ tion of acceptance with his head, and trudged along at her side. Madge led him straight to the bug­ gy where it was parked in the grove of great oaks. Right thr­ ough the crowd they went, and before everybody. Poter aaw sev­ eral peoplo glancing in thoir di­ rection, which made him proud of his ability to attract the women. When tho dinner was ilnishe'd Madge suggested that they walk to tho spring 'and get a drink of water. Peter readily conaented, and walked along at the side of the fair one aa a Napoleon going forth to conquer worlds. When they were out of sight of the peo­ ple at the church Madge reached ■down and took Peter by the hand. What .n thrill 1 It was truly the thrill of a life time. Hand in hand they walked to the spring. Peter dipped up wat­ er in Madge’s tin cup and they drank to their heart’s content. Then they aat down upon a largo flat rock near the spring, Madge still holding Peter’a tawny hand. She opened the conversation. An'd what talk! She didn’t waste any time coming to the point. Sho , spoke of love as though it wore a tangible thing to be had by any­ one for the asking. ‘‘Have you over loved anyone, Peter?” asked Madge, looking in his eyes with one of tho sweetest smiles that over dimpled the face of an angel. "Not ex-ackly,” said Peter, “but I am now.” • "You are? How lovely. I was In love my.self one time, but I’m 1 never going to be anymore.” But , sceihg the hurt look in Peter’s ; face she added; “Unless it is with ; somebody ol.se. I might love some body like— like you, Peter, but I couid never love a man again.” I’eter grew quite bold. He roach ! ed an arm about IMadge’s should­ ers and said: “Who waa tho man you liked, Mndge?” “Ital'ph Webster.” "I never did like him much,” i declared Peter, “thinks he can sing so good. Aiicr when he 'don’t shave he looks like a bear, er some other sort o’ savage.” “0-o-o-oh, |iiow I hate him l” cooed tho fair one of angelic charms. "He ia the meanest man that ever lived. I’ll never stop hating him so long as I live. And I don’t care if you tell him so, Peter.” "Alright; I ’d just like to do it anyway, thinks he is so smart.” "Fine!” ejaculated the spurner of mans love. "You just tell him what 1 said— that I hated him worse than poison.” “I guess we’ll have to go now, said Madge, lowering her face to Fecer with a sort of yearning, dove-like look, “though I wish we could stay here forever.” Something in Peter, as old as the agea, welled up and predomi­ nated, and he reached both arms about hia lady-love and kissed her yearning lips. If you have never attended an okt-fashioned singing school, like the one Peter waa attending, I nave no way of describing it to you, gentle reader, the opportuni­ ties i t 'Offered for love making. They were always held In the bal­ my summer time, or in tho early spring, of tho year when a four­ teen year old boy’s fancy natural­ ly turns to things of love and to mighty deeds of valor. Peter never missed, a single day and tho singing school lasted for one whole week. And he never carried any lunch with him. Ev­ ery day at noon he ate with Madge and after the dinner was over, to the spring they went. And there on the big ilat rock they sat, Avith Peter stretching an arm that waa too short to reach the whole way, about Madge’s shoulders. At the ringing of the bell they kissed again as t^jey had on that first memorable day. At home, Mrs. Parley observed a change going pn in her son and mentioned the fact to Mr. Parley, who only laughed at the idea. "You know,” said Mrs. Parley to her husband on tho third day of Peter’s attendance at the sing­ ing school, “I believe Peter is courting somo girl. Only today, I caught' him with your razor go­ ing through the act of shaving himself.” "Come to think of it,” replied Mr. Parley, "I thought my razor was awfully dull today.” “Yes,” saici Mrs. Parley, "and look how biggety 'that boy has been acting larouivd here every since that ainging achool started. Refused to let his sister go with him to the spring last night, and you know how scared he has al­ ways been of the dark. Something has boon getting away very fast with my boltlo of vaseline, too.” “Ah, I don’t suppose he has got it all that bad, and only fourteen ' years old,” said Mr. Parley, and went off to feed his horses, and I thus tlie conversation was drop­ ped. i But Peter had it in an ovor- I sized measure. At nights ho lay ! awako ¡ind ])ictured himself as a gallant knight jousting for tho fair hand of his true lady, and 'Page 9 s==-S£V If you for pleasure —you have the right idea.

At tho end of the said singing school Peter came home feeling the reaponalbilitioa of a real man. And why not? Was he not en­ gaged to marry an oighteon-year- old boiiuty? Yos, he had asked Madge to marry him, and she had consented. He had also conveyed the mea- aagea of Madge to Ralph, and vice versa. Fcr Ralph always had a messuge to send ',o Madge, top. , Peter dolivei'od them going and I coming vvith a faithfulness that I was astounding. On Sunilay, following tho close of the singing aciiool on Saturday, Peter had taken his aister into hia cr/r.lidonco. She was several years I Peter’s senior.I “Sis,” said Peter that Sunday morning as they were on tlieir j way to Sunday achool, "I got a I secret to tell you, iT you will pro- i mise never to tell'a's long as you live.” “Alright,” replied his sister, “I ]iromiso. What is it?’,’ ' “How you like Madge W hite?” “Alright.” “Woll, me and her is going to I be married before long. We got engaged Saturday.” , Ji'oi' some reason Peter’s sister saw tho thing in a mighty funny way, For several minutea sho was convulsed with laughter. “You needn’t laugh so big,”' said Peter, “you won’t have me much longer,” "Madge White,” howled his sister,' "why she is eighteen years oid, a year older than myself, and I would never think of marrying any little” fourteen year old kid like you, Peter. Sho won’t either. She’s kidding you.” “No, she ain’t,” rasped Pet-ter, "I tell you we are going to got married.” "You got your license? You know- you h'avo to have a act of license, Peter, before you marry, and they cost about throe dollars. And Where is your three dollars? You don’t oven know whore to get the license.;’ "I’ll Und out; Bill Richmond he knows all about sich things, and I’ll ask him, I ain’t got tho three dollars, but I’ll get it afore long, and then me and Madge will be secretly married.” “Alright, go on in your crazy way, Poter, but you’ll see Madge White will never marry you. She is too old for you.” ■ "Girla won’t never believe any­ thing, no way, but you just wait.

He scanned tho headlines with an indifferent air, only warm ly interested, until hia eye fell up­ on ono which read: ‘Young Oouple Elope and aro Married in South Carolina.’ That apelled interest, ao Peter 1 ead on, and aa he read his face slowly changed to a sickly pallor and ills hand shook; fina.lly tho paper slipped to the ground, and Poter looked' like an old man, an'd f9lt that life waa not worth the jiying.

I "Tho yoUng eou))le have many friends in their community who will bo delighted to learn that they are going to live upon an adjoining farm of the groom’s father.” Poter finally gathered up hia paper and took it to the house. On his way he talked aloud to himself. Said he: "Come to think of it, I believe I 'do remember nov.' that old Man White objected to Ralph Webster coming to see his ugly 'gal and so ho had to stop going.

Burgwyn, former senator of Northampton county, and candidate for lieutenant-gov­ ernor, is in town; today, shaking hands with a host, of old friends and manifestly making a number of new ones. Mr. Burgwyn, it will b& recalled, was the gentle­ man who rendered Davie county such substantial aid during the last session of tho General As­ sembly when A. T. Grant endea­ vored to disrupt the educational system of the county by placing two radicals, on our county school board. We are delighted to welcome Senator Burgwyn to our ‘progres­ sive littlo county and to assure him that he is among friends who truly iappreciate his active efforts in their behalf. (By Mary J. Heitman) (continued from last week) Richmond Mumford Реаглоп, son of Richmond Pearson by his second wife, who was a Miss Mumford, w.as born at ‘‘Richmond H ill,” his paternal home, in 1805. 'Phe луаг of 1812 se4’iou8ly deplet­ ed his father’s fortune, so he was educated by his half-brother,' Joseph Pearson, then in Congress, who took him,to Washington whon a small boy, and put him in school, liater he was prepared for col­ lege by John Mushat, of States­ ville, and ent&red the State Uni­ versity, where he graduated ta 1823 with first honors. In his boyhood tho study of law seemed to have a great attraction for him, for,, it was then tiiat he formed the ambition to become Chief Justice of,the Supreme, Court, a dream, that later came.' true. After his graduation he studied law under Judge Hender­ son in Salisbury, and Was admit- | ted to tire bar in 1826.' He was ; highly successful from tho start, and I’epaid his brother ior his’ education. From 1829 to lbo2 lie represented Row,an in the Legisla­ ture. and in 1836 was. elected Judge of tho Superior Court; iiold- ihg.this position for twelve years. In the early days: (>f Davie coun­ ty’s erection. Judge Pearson open­ ed 'Lhis'/famous ^ M qcks'v i 11 q, whi с hi .drew ’ й t u d bhts ’ from: аИ over the'state, some 'of them becoming noted lawyers. The olfice occupied by the stud­ ents were located on Salisbury street near tho White House, the first painted houi& in Mocks’ville, which was built by Hugh Wilson, and is still standing. Judge Pear­ son’s residence was the ¡iresent home of Mr. J. B. Johnstone, and his ofilce, whiuh"'has slncc be'eii torn down, fronted on Gaither street. In 1846 Judge Pearsoi. moved his school to that part 01 Curry county which was formed into Yadkin county a few years later. Here he built a home which he called "Richmond H ill” after his boyhood home on the Yadkin River. For many years he con­ tinued to teach here, .=ome of his pupils being sons of his former students. It is probable that he taught over a thousand young mon, some of them becoming the i fioreir.cst lawyers of ilheir diay.' Among !-.i,3 pupils were J. M. Cle­ ment, i>. II. Ck'ment, E. L. Gaith­ er, and T. B. Bailey, of Mocks- ville. ' In appoarance the judge was ' small in statue with the counten- ' ance of a Roman senator; in in^ telloct he was a giant possessing , a remarkable knowledge of the j law and a fine memory. He not : only taught his pupils in the class ‘ room, but .instructed them while walking along the country roads, I while' fishing, or at the table, as ; some of the boys boarded in his home. He had simple tastes, and it wa,s one of his pleasures to work his garden. In 1848 he was elected ap As­ sociate' Justice of the Supreme Court by the Legislature, Judge Ruffin being Chief Justice at that time. After the death of Judge Nash in 1858 he was chosen Chief Justice by the court, and in 1868 he was elected chief justice by both political parties, under the ruling of the new constitution. He died in January 1878 while on his way to Raleigh to hold the Su­ preme court, and his body lay in state in the Capitol for several day?. As tho writer of his me­ moir said: "Ho was on the bench for more than forty years, and he died in the path of di'^y with his untarnished mantle on.” Turning aside from the profes­ sional life of Judge Pearson, it will be of interest to know some­ thing of his family ties. He was, married in 1831 to Miss Margaret Williams, daughter of Col. John Williams, of Tennessee,- and they li,ad ten children, three surviving' their father. His wife died in Surry county and he later married. Mrs. Mary Bynum. His son, Rich- niond Pearson, studied law under his father; and moved to Ashe­ ville where he died a number of: years ago. He was a member of Congress, and 'at onC' time waa minister to France. One daugh­ ter of Judge ■ Pearson inarried Hayne Davis, of Statesville, and another one became tho wife of James Hobson, son of Samuel Augustus Hobson and Mrs. Ann Morehead Hobson, of Davie coun­ ty. They moved to Alabama, and: Itheir son, LieuteHanl: Richmond P. Hobaon, disting,uished himself in the Spanish-American war aa' the "hero of the merrimac,” A younger brother of Judge- , Pearson, Giles N. Pearson, was a ' lawyer also, and lived, in Mbcks- ville at one time. He married Miss Elizabeth Ellis, (daughter of I Anderson’ Ellis, Sr., and Mrs. Ju- ■ dlth Bailey Ellis, and a sister of Gov.

TO SPAN ¡RIVEK Rockford, March 20.— For year» citizcns of Rockford and this part oi' tho county have been endea­ voring to get Surry and Yadkin, ■counties to build a bridge across the YiadkinvRiver at Rockford, but the oflicials of the, two counties never saw flt to make thei appro­ priations necessary. Some years- ago the Legislature passed an act;, which would require the two, counties to build a bridge but am attorney was employed to fight; the onse and the Supreme Court ruled tha.t the Legislature was, out’; of its authority to require the' counties to buikl the bridge and' the'matter was therefore dropped.. It now comes to light that J. Frank Bland of Winston-Salem, has interested himself in the pro­ position and last Monday his at- torne.vs secured la permit from the' Commissioners of' Yadkin and Surry allowing him to erect a toll bridge at Rockford. Papers have been recorded at Dobson showing Wint ho has pur­ chased land along the Yadkin necessarj^ for the construction of tho bridge, also having purchased the ferry which has been operated at Rockford. The bridge will bo built as soon as material can be purchased and is 'said to cost in the hfiighborhoocl of $30,'000.^ [ O N O ^ - THE FOLLOW ING HAVE SUB­ SCRIBED SINCE LAST ISSUE Sam F. Binkley, L.

As the exploratory boat round­ ed n 'spur of reef that covered the passage into the lagoon, opened out tho largest island from the Boa, Palmyra burst into nn ex­ clamation of delight.

Palmyra, through her glasses, saw thnt three men got into this boat. Two of them were un­ doubtedly native seamen. The third, who had been reconnoiter- ing from the crosatreos, appeared to be a white man. She watched them as they pull­ ed rapidly through the passage 'and ilcroas the lagoon. Then in astonishment, she lowered the binoculars to stare at Van Buren Rutger. He was now dancing over the coral clinkera like a muaical com­ edy buffoon . • "By the Great God Caah!” ho cried.

Almost from the moment Pon­ ape Burke came running up the sands Palmyra perceived a dif- feren'ce.’ Was it that the ridiculous, habi­ liments of the Rainbow had given way to the starched white of the tropical ship’s master?

He said: ’The Model T Ford car was à pioneer. It blazed the way for the motor industry and started the movement for good roads éverywhere. It broke down ths barriers of distance in rural sections, brought people in thesè sections closer together, and placed education within the reach of everyone. We are still proud of the Model T Ford. If we were not, we .would not have continued to make it so long.”’ For twenty years, the Model T Ford led the automobile industry and it still serves more people than any other auto­ mobile. Over one-third of all the àutomobilèis in use today are Model T Fords,— an indifcation of thé sturdy wortls of thè car arid itis value to people in all walks of life the \^brld over. ' ' ' ' The Ford Motor Company ’wHl continue to make re­ placement parts for these cars ’’until the last Model T is off the road.” That is a part of Ford service. That is what He.nry Ford meant when he said; believe that W^^ man buys one of our cars we should'keep it running for him ias long as wc can and àt thè lowest up>kecp cost.” , Because ioif this policy a considerable part of the Ford manufacturing plants is given over to the making of parts for the Model T Ford. These replacement parts are made of the dame material and in the same way as those from which your car was originally assembled. Make it a point, therefore, to see the nearest Ford dealer and have him look over your Model T Ford.

THE RADIÒ d ea l” EARLY HATCHED CHICKS NEED COD LIVER OIL Washington, March 27.— A now (leal for radio fans was voted last week by tho House, with Repre­ sentative W illiam C. Hammer of North Carolina supporting the move with his vote. The new deal calls for a division of equal broad­ casting privileges among live zon­ es in the United States and a further division of facilities a- mong the States in each zone, ac­ cording to population. At the present time certain po­ pulous States have far more than their proportionate share of air privileges. Under the amendment passed last week, 236 to 134, this would be changed and each State would be allocated its own fair share of broadcasting facilities. Should the Senate concur and tho President approve, the radio map of the United States would bo materially altered. Communi­ ties now without adequate broad­ casting stations could then have them. Detroit, Mich,, March 27,— How tho motorist cnn save on oil ex­ pense and repair bills through proper 'attention to the oil Alter on his car was stressed in a state­ ment released here today by 0. E, Hunt, chief engineer of the Chev­ rolet Motor Company , "The oil filter is ono of many features contributing to Chevro­ let’s long ilife and eqonomy of operation.” Ruieigh, March 27.— Three sep­ arate te.sts made lately at the North Carolina Experiment Sta­ tion prove the '.«lue of one per­ cent of cod liver oil in the mash feed supplied to early hatched chicks, “Chicks reared in nur la'bora- tories where wo could control nearly all conditions have proven, the value of cod liver oil in the mash feed," declares Dr, B, F, 'Kaupp, head of the poultry de­ partment at State College. "One lot of chicks fed a complete ra­ tion except for the vitamins, broke in health in the (\fth week. The chicks receiving one percent of the tested oil in the same kind of mash did not break in health and were strong and well-develop­ ed. In a: second test, the chicks which were not allowed to run out-of-doors nor receive direct sunlight gave us exactly the same results,' Those receiving the oil were strong and well and were sold us broilers. Those receiving only the straight mash and grain feed broke in health at the end of the fifth week.” Dr. Kaupp states that a third flock was carried on the basic ra­ tion without oil but were given all the tender rape that . they would eat. These broke in health in the seventh week indicating that they secured some vitnmina from the green feed but not en­ ough to keep them in good health. In another test, at the coastal plain station, one lot of chicks was allowed to run on a fresh, gi’een pasture three or four hours during the middle of the day with the result that they did not break in health but were not so large and strong as the chicks'in the cod liver oil flock. Dr. Kaupp states that those chicks which run out-of-^doors pick lip other' thing's which are required for good health and development but usu­ ally this is not suificient as the tests with the cod liver oil show. As a result of all the tests. Dr. Kaupp believes that tho expense of using one per cent of this oil Is well worth Avhile. It holds, up the health and gives stronger con­ stitutional vigor.

CHURCH HELL USED BY W HISKY MAKERS It has remained ior Randolph county moonshiners to introduce the ultimate refinement into the romantic business of making corn liquor, they have poured out the* last full measure of devotion and ingenuity to prevent the revenu- erg and sheriffs from pouring out the mash and the whisky. A group of raiders early this week descended on a Randolph hollow in which two stills were steaming but no operators were caught. As the agents started closing in on the stills, there came a, tuneful pealing from the bell of a little-country church. That was the signal for the fadeaway of the artists,!

And box the salt in small containers. with blueprints in their hands the ¡rovtonment start a have figured out to tear down the I i ’' ’ pillar of salt which has always 1 " .always been identified as Lot’s wife and grind it into common table salt. A protest was raised agninst this, nnd thaf gave tjie promoters an­ other idea. They would take nd- vnntage of the advertising which that particular pillar of salt has. Ave are predicting that this spring Avill see more flower seeds plant­ ed around Davie County homes than ever before during any one year. Our people afo learning that flowers and shrubbery are not worthless. That beauty en­ hances the value of property in addition to making 'surroundings more agreeable. We are all more or less fam il­ iar with .the old Story of Diog&- nos, tho Greek'philosopher, who ; .when seen walking; the streets in, broad bpen daytime with, a lantV ern in his haiid, nnd nsked what it meant, stated that ho wns look- •ing for,an honest man. A short time ago a-Springflold, Missouri ЗППП' decided, to find ono honost man in his city, but ho used a tlifTerent method. He pasted a dol­ lar bill on the outside of his show window, about five feet above the made of wood cut from the Moun­ tains of Lebanon, and sell it for a fabulous _ amount. According­ ly, say recent news dispatches, from Palestine, Lot’s wife is to be ground' up, boxed and sold to a curious world as souvenirs. But the suggestion may also produce bright' ideas in tho heads of American fakirs who may soon be selling common salt to suck- ors, in wooden box containers, labeled as a part of Lot’s wife. So be on the lookout and before you purchase, be sure that" it is’ the genuine “Lot’s W ife” you are buyiing before you part with your monoy. After all, the liact. that tho United States is tho richest nation on earth, although a young' nation' when compared with England, France and other European and ^ Asiatic nations, Is not a more sidewalk where it could be most ! piece of luck. It may seem to easily reached by paafiera by, and ,’ v ondor of the ages that America whore it would attract the atten- ' £.nce the few scattering sottle- tion of all.

Mich., March 27.— How the motorist can save on oil ex­ pense and repair bills through proper lattontion to the oil lllter on his car was stressed in a state­ ment released here today by 0. E. Hunt, chief ongineer of the Chev­ rolet Motor Company . His annotuicement followed ex­ periments conducted by rcSearch engineers of the AC Spark Plug i Company, makers of Chevrolet oil lilteis, showing that a full pint of abrasive matter accumulated in tho filter after every 10,000 miles of driving. This residue possessed such high abrasive qualities that it птпИ fraction of the saving in oil bills alone.

Phoi.e 1Б1 * Raleigh, March 27.— Sueceasful, jiractical farmers are being de­ veloped in the ranks of the Four- IT Club boys of North Carolina as shown by studies made recent­ ly of the records of many of these members. “We have recently had' one striking example of how club work develops a good, practical farmer,” says L. R. Harrill, club leader at State College. "Lou-'o Baker of Catawba county has beon a club member for seven yoara and during that time has devol<’ • ed a reputation as a breeder of Partridge iRock poultry. He made a net profit of nearly $1,200 with his poultry flock. Recently he ac­ cepted the position as superin­ tendent of the poultry department of the Reynolda Farms near Win­ ston-Salem, and reports received from his work indicate that he is giving excellent service.” Mr. Ilarrill states that this young man has won more cups than any other club member in Catawba county and the training which he received in looicing after his poulti'y, according to club standards, fitted him for excellent position which he was offered. Young Baker has worked with County Agent J. W. Hendricks in the poultry progrnm which is be­ ing developed on the farms of that county. Mr. Harrill states that there were some 20,000 boys nnd girls enrolled in the 242 organized Four-H clubs of 74 counties last year. Some remarkable records were made by many of these mem­ bers. The Alamance Calf Club with 153 young folks owning as many pure bread Jersey calves; the Buncombe calf club with 104 members owning their own calv­ es; the ton litter contests with swine and the crop work were out­ standing, he states. A study of the records shows that Raymond Watson of Craven county shipped tho first solid car of hogs ever fattened by a club member; Sam Raper of Davidson' won the state ton-litter contest with swine; Gu,thrie Jentry of Person county produced 116 bush­ els of corn nnd Ellenson McDoug- ald of Lee county produced two bales of lint cotton on one acre. * ROBERT S.

For, if need was Raleigh, March 27.— The secret of success in corn growing de­ pends on careful land preparation before planting. / “W ith the increase of livestock on all farms and the attention good farmers aro giving to diver­ sification of crops in the State at this time, an adequate supply of corn is essential,” says C. R. Hud­ son, of tho farm demonstration department at State College. “Corn is one of our most valuable crops and nothing ig of more im­ portance with it than thorough plowing, careful disking und ade­ quate harrowing before planting. Often, it is wise to disk the land before plowing so that it will not plow up in clods. In any event, it should be disked :and harrowed immediately after plowing and be­ fore the moisture dries out.” A good, mellow seed bed should be prepared at the expense of ear­ ly planting, if necessary, states Mr. Hudson. Good corn growers know tho importance of this. Tho North Carolina Experiment Station advises the use of from 400 to 1500 pounds of a high-grade fertilizer in la divided application if the crop is not to be top-dress­ ed with an application of nitrate of soda. If the soda is to be used, then all the other fertilizer might bo put in under the corn bofore planting. The soda should be ap­ plied when the corn is about knee high and before it bunches to tas­ sel. A good application is recom­ mended. Mr. Hudson advises early cul­ tivation with the use of the har­ row or weeder. This destroys the early growth of weeds and grass arid saves moisture. As the corn grows and tho roots develop, it is unwise to cultivate deeply be­ cause tho tender rootlets aro found near tho surface. Several varieties of corn are rocommended for the ■difTeront sections. Mr. Hudson states that Weokloy’s ' ';Imp|rlvcd, Southern Boauty, Latham’s Double and Jarvis Goldeif aro best for the piedmont section, while Latham’s Double, Indian Chief and Bigg’s Prolific, in tho order named, :nvo adn\tecl to the coastal plain.

FERTILIZE FRUIT TREES FOR BEST YIELDS Raleigh, March 21.-r-Fertilizing fruit trees in tho home orchard is not generally pfactiaed in North Carolina but better yields of quality fruit would be secured if this plan were followed. "It is tho plan on a number of farms to grow some crop’ beT tween the fruit trees in tho homo opchard and to fertill?e this crop to some extent but not fertilize ! the trees,’.’ says E.-B. Morrow, i extension horticulturist at State College. "If the trees aro expect, ed to carry a good crop of fruit this year and at tho same time produce fruiting wood for the coming year, they must be ferti­ lized. Of course there are some soils where this is not needed but they aro few.” Mr. Morrow states that this is one good practice that is neglect­ ed by many orchard owners. He states that for bearing peach trees on the average soil from one to two pounds of nitrate of soda or some other quick acting $(i,5(l() I Is' PRIZES TO ПЕ (,'iVEN PL'PILS AND T E A C K O S IN CONTESTS (continued from ¡laKi; 1) to r dollars.

When the facts were found' out, the girl had been read­ ing aheap, sensational stories and decided to “go out into the big world.” "Evil litenature is doing much to harm our young people. Parents should-be careful to see that their children read good literature as they are to see that they, keep good company. Evil literature causes miany a girl land boy to go astray.” It is inxleed' strange that so many parents still fail to take any precautions as to the kind of literature which may fall into thoir children’s hands. Some don’t !know wl'iiat bad 'literature mcan-s, otheru don’t care, or apparently they don’t. But some day those respon'sible for the training of children shall learn to be as careful in the selection of the reading matter for,those over whom they have' charge, as they do in seeing that they get plenty of pure nourishing food. No parent woukl allow his child to e'at tainted, unwhole.snme food. For ho know» that such would result in impaired health of body, but how many look after the child's reading matter with the same ciare. And yet reading is food for the mind and soul. Good reading inspirf's 'and develops mind and soul and results in the building of strong chaiacter. Bad literature poisons the mind and impairs character, weakens the will and results in a ruined life, a useless life, a miserable' ex,istence for the victim and a burdensome worry and di'sgrace to the parents. Surely parents will soon learn to take greater precautions in the selection of the literature their children read. Surely parents will soon learn that their children' will become like the literature they' read as sur6ly as water will seek its level.

HAMMER ON THE JOB Washington, April 3. — Repre­ sentative W illiam C. Hammer, of North Carolina, voted last week with a majority of his colleagues in the House against setting up another expensive federal estab­ lishment in the case of the Fed'- eral Power Commission. A' bill to grant the Commission a stafi! of engineers and clerks was voted down, 179 to 169. The Power Commission passes upon' la'pplications to. construct power plants on navigable streams. .Its only employee und­ er the present law is its Secretary and its work is done by employees lent to it by v.nripus Departments,, as required by law. 'fhe plea wai» made that the" Commission should have its own staff, but the House apparently feared setting anoth'er government bureau up in business and decided to continue the present arrangement. “The horae is coming back,” doclarea the Hendersonville Times- News, in'lan interesting editorial entitled, "The Horse Is Not To Gto.” Both sport and utility, will guarantee a future demand for the horse. Tho Hendersonville paper goes on: “Friends of the horse will be glad to loarn that ho is not to be exterminated by the automobile, Time wa's not so long ago when tho prediction freely was made tr-iint another generation would learn of tho horse only by visiting the museum. 'The truth is, the horse is coming back."There are two factors in his reinstatement— sport and utility. There survives in' tho human raco enough of the old knightly' strain to insure ii’re norpetuation of the delightful and ho^althful sport of horseback riding. For the^ moment this sport largely ,is confined to those of wealth and leisure, and healthful diversion ahv'nys spread?.

It ihas boen found that for many purposes the horse is safer and more economical than 'any mecha­ nical device.

The dem'and for snake bite serum is daily growing, until not enough can be secured. Twenty years ago, it is, said, there were not over a dozen bites from-rattlers in this country in an entire year, but now the yearly total (has mounted to around 3,000. _Does thia mean that snakes ‘are multiplying in' numbers, or is it not .possibly due to the Volstead law? Possibly Mr, Ditmars could liave found an ciTcctivo serum for isnake bites right here in Davie county in our well known brand of "white licker,” Anyhow the sn'ake bites arn on such an incroaao as to cause a la m among the old timers of this country under modern conditions and regulations.

The ancient kingdom is even now showing signs of becoming one of the world’s new storm centens. But Faud had better be good, for the hope that England will turn loose her grip on the country of the Pharoahs is a vain one. Next thing Old Faud knows somo other Mohammedan will be referred to in Egypt as, His ^Majesty, and the present hand made momarch will be taking ihis meal® on-some isolated island in the far southern Pacific. The Egyptians are po'kirig at a mightier people than ancient Israel, Britain has forgotten more about ruling,' even Mohammedans, than Old iFuad over knew or ever will know.
