rrhere are two words that con-
" tain great lessons for Christian peo-
! pie. They are time and place.
' ■ These two words contain le.ssons. not
only for Christian, but for all
■,.peo]!Se. A mere- suggestion will
^futnish food for thought to all Who
- >read and think. No person would
think of playing- 'terihis at a buj'ial.
The time and tflace, both say, “not
here and now.” Dress at the /beach
'• and at honae suggests a difference on
■ account of the time and place. The
beach is one place and the hofne is
■ another. Bathing beauties at the
.beach get their pictures and names
in the papers, and their friends are
' proud of them; if they dressed and
' ^ehaved in the same way in the
home, the public would frown upon
them.
' Weiek days and Sundays are differ
ent, and God has fixed man’s rights
on those days—^work six days for
self; rest one day for God and oth
ers. No nation can survive that ig
nores tlie Sabbath. “Remember the
' Sabbath Day to keep it holy.” Even
in the home and kitchen and the par
lor are different places, and no
mother would think of preparing
dinner for company in the parlor,
- nor think of entertaining special
company in the kitchen. The place^
is important in human conduct. It
is even so in religious life and be
havior. Social functions do not be
long to the Church. Many things
are proper in society that are out
of place in the Church. Boys hay?
too much sen=e to play marbles ^ in
the Church. Girls would not think
of playing ga-mes in the Church.
The question naturally arises in the
mind, why is this so well undei-
stood? It is a house, a placSj dedi
cated to the worship of God, and
that shuts out all worldly exercises
- and worldly pleasures. The very
' grounds of a Church should b.e con-
.sidered sacred places. Place has
much to do with action both social
and moral.
People do many things on the
’ beach they would not dare to do on
. the street at home. Different rooms
in a house determine the kind of
behavior to be observed in the house.
The li-ving-room suggests one thing,
parlor another, the kitchen yet an
other, and the bed-room still anoth-
. er. People who do not respect place ;
in their conduct have not true sense .
of good manners, good conduct, and ^
good character. Not only children, |
but even grown people, behave diff- ,
erent'when there is company in the
~ house ;and the character of the com- ]
pany' enters into the behaviour of
all the family. If the governor or
a bishop, or an educated lady, or
I an aged person is the guest, it
changes the manner and conduct of
all the household. The place is a
large factor in the way of men. In
the Senate chamber in Washington
there is, instinctively, a sense of dig-
nity that creeps over all who enter
that greata chamber; and the time
has much to do with the feeling of
the visitor. If the Senate is in ses
sion, there is respect' that is .absent
if the Senate is in adjournment.
Baseball or fishing are all right
■ ' on one of the six days, but wrong
.on Sunday. A dance may be all
-right at a party, but it certainly is
not at a prayer-meeting. More at
tention should be given to time and
place in the social and business
world.—W. W. Staley, in the Chris
tian Sun.
J.' A. Smith, field representative
of tfie North Carolina Cotton Grow
ers’ Association,' .states that the as
sociation is advancing almost the
market price of cotton on all staple
pooled with the association this
year. Much interest is being shown
in the cotton associ-ation and many
are asking for information concern
ing it. Mr. Smith says that it i.s
impossible for him to see all the
farmers and he suggests that all
interested in pooling their cotton
see the following receiving agents
who will be ^ad to give them any
information in regard to the cotton
association;
W. R. Woodall, Smithfi.eld ware
house; J. M. Lawhorn', Benson ware
house; R. A. Keen, Four Oaks; .Mrs.
Lela T. Massey, Clayton; W. G. Wil
son, Wilson’s Mills; Luby Mitchell,
Priioeton; Floyd C. Price, Pine Lev
el; J. 0. Avera, Selma; and J. H.
Barnes, Kenly.
NO SUBSTITUTE FOR
LOCAL REPUTATION
We used to hear about the ap
proaching disappearance of ^ the in-
dependent retailer. The time wa^
close at hand, so we were told, when
he must become a hired man work
ing for the chain stores. But these
orophets failed to realize that the
independent retailer may have some
thing for which no organization,
however large and well managed,
-can evr substitute, and that is the
personal confidence of his customers
ba.sed upon long acquaintance.
•Farsighted manufacturers seeking
nation-wide distribution have begun
to realize that the local reputation is
a precious asset. Instead of trying
to replace the local merchant, some
of them are studying how to help
him.
“NEVER .READ '
the NEWSPAPERS’
Doctor Finley, former Commission
er of Education of the State of New
York, says that if a child does not
read, once he has learned to read,
he is likely to become as much of
an illiterate as if he had never
learned. /
The person who admits that he
“never reads the papers” invariably
discloses his ignorance A-hen he talks
I about public questions, or events;
:and while he may not be what is
j strictly kno-wn as an illiterate he
' defeats the very purpose of the pub
lic school system, the publication of
newspapers, and all other processes
of education. This may explain why
there are so many such people at
the movies. If most of these movies
were not also “illiterate” maybe the
standard of human intelligence would
be higher.
There’s alvtays some favored one with a charm that s all her own.
And everywhere in the modern scene you’ll see happy smokers break
ing out fresh, fragrant packs of Camels ... a natural choice too!
For the mildness of Camels is a charm that’s all its own ... a natural
mildness that’s a quality of choicest tobaccos. Don’t confuse this fresh,
fragrant mildness with the flatness or insipidness of “over-treated”
tobacco. There’s a delightful natural fragrance to Camels, too, a
“bouquet’’ as distinctive as the fragrance of oriental flowers.
Here’s to the delightful things of life! Have a Camel!
IF KING CORN FAILS
In many ways corn is more im
portant as crop in this country than |
wheat. Converted into pork and
beef, it is the greatest of all mort
gage lifters. It is the backbone of
agriculture in every part of the
country that can grow it, and when
it fails for any reason more farm
ers by far are sufF.erers than if the
wheat crop should be a failure. Pos-
,?ibly that is why Selma residents
have long been accustomed to hear-
I ing the statement that “Corn is
king!” .
