The demnn.l for .. h faiiill ties w i part.ally nut in the opening Riverside Park , n the .-ah"..I protu r.y ai'C.t Valley River on Friday aftern. :i. Through the kindne-.- of the - hoc! ' ;?r.this piece of property has been turm ti ov< to the to\vn for a park and camping ground A few improvement-- are being made by tht town ur.tier the direct in fa committee o the school Inward and town council. Other will be made a- public conwr.icv deman. them. The use that s made of this wil j determine the course to pursue >n the future The main thing is. however; that Murph; realizes her ever-increasing needs and. in i measure at least, u keeping" pace with thosi needs. THE Fain Grocery Company, through th> kindness of .ts president, Mr. W. M Fain, in giving 100 watermelons for the op cning of the Riverside Park on Friday agaii demonstrates a fine community spirit. I we all, or even a iarge number of us, couli have such a public spirit we could soon buili a city here of no mean proportions. Th losing of self in the community, the sacrt ficing of the lesser for the greater is wha co-operation and community spirit are mad of and one of the most important huildinj materials in the structure *of a community a city, is co-operation. Supporting ' The Orphans FRIDAY! night following the services !r tent, th'o concert class from the Odd Fellows Home will give a concert to the large Paudierco gathered there fori the religiou? services. There are fourteen instruments In the orchestra and Murphy music-loving panara assured a delightful evening. Xo adwh*i?n will be charged to hear these rhiTdrea hut a free-will offering will be taken. The Odd fellows Lodge is doing much toward the support of this orphanage at Goldsboro, but they must have some outside help. Like Ac Oxford Orphanage, they have found the nnnmen concert tours most productive of evenue. This is the most practical wa> the children can earn anything toward their keep. The public hears as good program vhtn they hear these children as they could hear anywhere for a dollar a - at.

Faith, Hon . Love, Work The new British Premier and his recently reconstructed cabinet seem stadilv to he gaining the confidence and favor of the public. Although rather new to leadership, and one whose opportuaity was unthought of less than a year ago. Mr. Baldwin has seized the reins to continue in office for some time to come. Mr. Balwin has shown himself a statesman of deejrer thought than the average poltical leader of the present day. Some three months ago he made a public address, in which he used the foiling words: "The English language is the richjest in the world in monosyllables, and words of one syllable contain salvation for this country and the world. They are 'Faith, hope, love andjwork.' No government without faith{in the people "j hope in the seture, love of its fellowI men, and without the will to work and i wort and work will ever brigthis counI try or Europe and the world through ' i into better times and days." I This statemen might be used as a ! "platform" by every govcrmcnt in the ! world, and civilized peoples be for it. If Mr. Iiahvin adheres to these sentiments and principles there is no doubt of the ultimate success of his political and economiclead lcrshsp so auspiciously begun. And its effeett upon chaotic Europe will be salutary.?Journal of Commerce. ROLMVA i ??? \T~ ; ;?t Human Interest Stories By Brownie* Frix l THE PROHIBITION OF PANICS. NATURE alternates.

Not only does the Federal Reserve System prevent panics, but it furnishes an almost inexhaustible supply of sound money, based on approved securities and puarantced by individual banks, for the carryinp on of repular business.
