Do I know definitely what the school is doing Do I know what studies my child is pursuing in school ? Do I know what studies my child is excelling in and what studies ^my child learns with difficulty? Have I made the acquaintance of my child’s teacher ? Do I simply sign my child’s re- ' port card, or do I read it carefully before signing it? Do I read the annual school re ports faithfully ? Have I ever talked over school matters with the teacher? Have I visited the P. T. A. enough to form an intelligent opin ion of its value? hearts. It is bracing- to hope, cour age and faith.

With your help they’ll hoe it. Your address on farm problems at Des Moines and your program for solv ing those problems is everlastingly right anl sound.

He- must have better prices and an ea.s- ing of tax and. mortgage- burdens-.

Snake Driver Wins In Boxing Bout Snake Driver, Selma welterwisight, ■«'on a decisive victory over Lee Smith of Rosewood in a three round bout in Gofdsboro Friday night. Driver had Smith outclassed through out the fight, ptmishing-- him severe ly with left hooks and right crosses to the body. Smith was much too tall for Driver, Snake being unable to reach the jaw. The shortness of the' fight was - all that saved Smith from a knockout. He seemed very groggy in the last round and could hardly have gone two more i*ounds. Three other Selma boys fought in the prelims. Robert Cox, Selma, won a decision over Len Sparks of Golds boro. Cox showed fine spirit through out the entire three rounds and Sparks was decisive. H.

Miss Annie Spivey received a mes sage yesterday announcing the sud den death of her mother which oc- I curred at her home in Rich Square, j Mis.s Spivey, who is a member of I the local school faculty, left at I once for 'her home. Miss Spivey’s many friends here deeply sympa thize with her in the loss of her mother. Son (who has caught his father kissing the maid); “Whatcha doin’. Pop, kissin’ the maid?’’ Pop (thinking quickly): “Bring me my glasses, .son: I though it was your mother.” Bobby: “Daddy a bf-y at school told me I looked ju.st like you.” Dad (proudly): “And V'hat did you say?” Bobby: “Nothin’. He was bigger’n me.” your name put on Bibles, hymn b(mks, belts, hat^, ELECTRICAL LY m gold or silver. Guaranteed o stay. Come in and let us show you. Small charge. Johnstonian—Sun Office, Selma, N.

Now Tillie tells us feat “a ehiropr.ictor is a guy I who .gels paid for what an ordinary guy gets slapped for ”—fl.xthange. New York Times, it w,ill he said that it was a new Hoover who disclosed himself yes terday in Lowa. It was at least a Hoover standing up with a new , vigor of language in his own de- . fense, aari making an appeal to his Uountryiaen which was touched -with an emotion not hitherto supposed jto be characteristic of him. What- i ever the effect, of his speech upon , the Presidential campaign, he may ! rest in the iwlief that in it he has I put forth the best that is in him. j President Hoover’s Des Moines i speech comes close to being the most statesmanlike utterance of his career; it certainly is the tiiost dra matic. In one passage of reasoning lighted by emotion it has enabled liirn to take the ofensive in the campaign. * * * How danger was faced and averted Mr. Hoover de scribes in detail. There was a ring of pardonable pride in his words when he spoke of “the battalions and regiments and armies” moblized by the administration in defense of the American dollar.—The Sun,New York. In the enormous scope of subjects discussed and in the mastery of com plex problems of finance, taxation, teriffs and economics. President Hoover s address is a revelation to the public. Governor Roosevelt has not touched upon many of these subjects. He seem,s to be ignorant 0 them, or, if not ignorant, he pre- ers to be silent. The country can not fail to draw a comparison be tween the man who has fought the nation’s fight, and the man .who dis parages his woik \while offering no program.—'Washington Post.
