To reject the opportunity to establish a water-borne commerce will be to establish that this new spirit is limit* d. and has not yet become pervasive. This test has been applied to the people themselves, and it Is to show to what extent they are still blind to the ir own interests. It is true that in important respects the things that have be done on which the latter-day reputation of the stare rests have rot been of a character to establish the vi<ior of the people, but rather to establish a powerful minority capable of perceiving. and striking out; in directions where there is no resistence except the resistance cf popular inertia, and where that resistance is at the minimum. In such manner have a relatively small minority comitted the state to the building of schools i.r.d roads, and on those two things the reputation of the North Carolina of today mainly rests. Any selected group of North Carolinians un trammeled by special prejudices and the influence of the great railroad companies, to whom might be committed the responsibility of accepting or rejecting the opportunity that is now presented to the staff for artinn hw It* vntort would accept it Any group of good business men. after a careful consideration of thd principal contentions would accept it. They would accept it on these grounds: | The reasonable expectation of1 profit is so large as to be out of all proportion to the coat. The3e assets ox tie concern that wouid make the, investment ithe state of North Car- ( alia*) are so ample that it would j be no whit embarassed if the em-j vestment should turn out to be a total loss, and it is imposible thatj ft could be a total loss. If North Carolina is to take and hold its proper f place among the states, OWn it must j develop all the resources, as other J atatea have developed and are developing similar resources.

I Lb?What do the scriptures prin j ripally teach? I A.?The seriptuics piincipally I -each what man is to believe concern I :ng God and what duty Gc.J require J of man. t tnc t-im aim ?*?m 01 an v-iuo.utii j -.vork is the bringing in of the King ! dom of God. Because of the concern i of the soul for the coming of this I day we can pray "Thy Kingdon j come. Thy Will be done." These , two petitions are inseparable for the ! Kingdom of Gcd cannot come with ; ut His will being done in the heart, j One of the greatest sei vices that I the Christian can render Is prayer. | Prayer is the most beautiful blossom ' of the soul and issues into the finest fruitage of life. It is regarded as a I simple exercise of the soul and yei | it is a tine art that demands the best leaching and endeavor. We feel the need of being able to truly pray. There a:e gra+e dangers in the prayer life. One of these is mentioned in Matthew 6:5. This is the danger of praying simply as a performance. No one has ever been lifted by the prayers of a man who ottered them simply n part o fa service. A great daily newspaper once published a statement to the effect that Rsv. - - - - the chfkoicee SCOUT. Ml? | uttered the greatest, pray-, r j ever offered to a Boston audierc?. , This may havt been a rrus'-afb| ofc ?. j reporter tut it makes enr 'feci .:ltv. t would be proper to say. "Thr show > on." The reward of an eloquent j : .rayer offered f r the elcquer.c i s a little bit of praise and a con-! Musntss ot havii.gr foon-u a few ; simple minded folk for u little while.' i Then is nothing heavenly in the re- j | ward. The cure for such a habit is to e" found in one's own seciet place [ rayer. A man may utter a >: llted rujtr before a crowd but the starch; .r.es cut whin thhe soul meets .s i _?od i-.idr.c. 1*1 ivate j iaytr of!-.n er. , oueU ir. will cause the soui to be! lia.ncfui of the presence of God 1.11 II abiic i rayer.

J This is one of the great needs 01 life and is supplied only to th- e who forgive. ; Proceeding .-till along the cu-.-t of | the mountain we pray "L? ad us not (into temptation, but deliver us from : ovi!."

The Stop 1 signals for health are such warnings as backache, shooting pains, recurring headaches, chilliness, dizzi1 ness, drowsiness, irritability, moroseness, rheumatic twinges, swollen joints, gout. These signals warn you that there is a "traffic jam" in the kidneys, and the -Go" signal can't be utilized until the j clogging poisons (uric acid, mostly) are flushed out Drinking a glass of hot water each j morning is effective and before each I meal take an An-uric tablet (anti-uric! acid).
