He scored liquor dealers, gamblers, pistol-toters and those who violate the automobile iaws of the country's comrn ting crimes against society. He called attention o the lav.* r,"\' uirirjg that all pistols be listed for taxation and said that the oesi remedy lor pistol toting is the "Co'ir.iy roads. The same remedy was prescribed for those violating the liquor laws. He was glad, he said, to know that the Legislature has applied the terms of the Federal prohibition laws to the state, making it unlawful to have intoxicating liquor in any quantity. In regard to carrying pistols. he addressed h:* remark.- largely tc the colored people, saying that the good colored citizens should ostracize the pistol toter. It'i^ especially the duty of the colored minis^ 'tfesS;'he ??.'d, to law enforcement to their people. In conclusion Judge Stack declared that law enforcement must prevail, because, he said, statistics show that A TREE OF GLITTERING PROS. < PECTS j Charlotte Observer The sprouts that were set out in the legislative pots at Raleigh are reaching the blossoming stage, and he unfolding ornamentation on the ranches of the Tree of Knowledge s the most inspiring of all.

Y. P. U. NOTES Coming Sunday evening at six o lock at the Boone Baptist Church larch 11th a Bible Study lesson?the Ihort Books of the New Testament, Timothy. In this lesson we study .bout some of the hardships Paul rent through with. Just now let's see iow Paul got along when he visited erusalem. While Paul was at Caesara we find that he had a visit from prophet named Agabus. This propLet had been taught by the Holy Ipirit the things that would happen o Paul at Jerusalem. So he took 'aul's girdle and bound his own hand ,nd feet and said, "Thus saith the July Ghost so shall the Jews at Jetxsalem bind the man who owneth his girdle and shall give him up to he Gentiles." When the friends of *aui heard this they all begged him lot to go to Jerusalem; they loved lim very much and could not bear hat he should suffer and they w&ntd him to stay with them. But what Igahus prophesied did not frighten *aul ai all. He turned to his friends iho were weeping ai! around him and aid "what mean ye to weep and to ueak my heart? 1 am ready not ony to be bound but also to die at Jeusalem, for the name of the Lord esus." So when his friends saw how letermined he was they did not try o persuade any more 'out only said The will of the Lord he done." So Paul tame to Jerusalem. The trethren there received him with Teat joy: but very soon the unbeieving Jews began to persecute him i Agabus had prophesied. They acused him of speaking against the ?\v not understanding what it was hat he preached, and then they laid iO!d of him in the temple and drew iim out and tried to kill him. All erusutem was in an uproar; but at ist tn? Roman Captain Lysias came ut with some soldiers, and Ih'-n they1 ecame quieter and left olT beating 'au!. So Lysias took him and bound im with two chains and then he askd the people who Paul was, and hat he had done. Some cried out no thing and some another, and the hief captain could not understand hat they meant: but he demanded 'aul to-be took to the castle. As he as carried along by the soldiers the lultitade followed crying, "away nth him;** Just as many had cried rhen Christ himself had been taken o be put to death, Paul was now hard and despised and persecuted for is master's sake. Hear Paul tell these wicked people f his past history?the wonderful f his cruelties to the Christians at rat, and his conversion to the faith f Christ afterwards, when going to >amascus; and of the command that iod gave him to go ar.d preach to lie Gentiles. The people heard Paul latiently till he came to this, and hen they grew very angry indeed, because as Jews they felt jealous of he Gentiles, and could nut bear that Iod should show them any love or avor. So they cried out, "away with .V mwiwammi m t mnvwjej Open Lc ok stock in the Luilding and Lirod stock in three series and [y son is also carrying stock to his credit I wish to say iimn is inc ucm money i cvur ^ f m the B & L but I have sev- ?
