I real ized ft was the last year In that old "EulTaing- which was called a high school only because~wg~Tiafl-cfats?ej In it and not because of Its simulnrity to a real building. The next fall I expecting to enter college where UPa' would be a paradise free from adver sity, and where I would have friends on every hand ready to do anything suggested for a good time, or waiting to help me tn any way possible. On the night of the nineteenth; to crown this w eek, of glory, I was to receive my diploma. After the graduation exercises and all the excitement was over, we bade each other good-bye. I went to my room, and in the qufet that followed I spent the saddest hour of my life. Then came the thought that the group which had labored and borne the hard ulilps uf scheeMife-together far eleven again be together as a body. Ruffin Stamps '22. 1 ? 1?1 ? The Last Day of School It has always been a source of be wilderment to me as to why teachers insist on pupils writing themes about the first day of school when the last dav Is so much more full of interest ing material. Surely our anticipa tions are greater at the prospect of a vacation of fun and frolic than at the prospect of a winter of hard study. "" ~thr-this_day_ of all days everything seems changedT EvCTy ? where ? the_ holiday spirit seems to prevail ? from the PreBhman, humbled at last by his first real encounter with final exams, t <y the Senior, bedragglea and entirely forgetful of the dignity of his position, hurrying to and fro with masses of flowers and crepe paper. Even Un cle Richard resplendent In his white vest, the wearing of which is the high est honor which he confers on the school, seems to radiate Joy and good ?will. "The office." that mysterious sanctum, loses Its austerity and "no trespassing" air before the general wave of excitement. On i.hat eacred desk In the corner diplomas are care lessly strown. 3u yeu so. far, we think, as wo c:'teh sight- of some teacher hurrying by with the us ual stack of examination papers un der her arm. We feast our greedy eyes on th^se coveted object until the dcor is Impolitely slammed In our faces, or we are can-led off by some determined classmate to heroically risk our life on some ric^etry step ladder In behalf of stage decorations. Annie W. Boddle '22. 11? 11? 1 "United We Stand, Divided We Fall" This proverb: United we Stand, Divided We Pall, Is one of t>\e great est of lessons. This must be first practiced in the home among the chil dren If they may ever expect to be successful. There is nothing like honesty, which playa an Important part In putting this proverb in use. This 1b plainly seon In tile late war. Germany rone as a man when the "Bound of the trumpet o" danger was heard. They were united. Once there was a man who was the father of seven strong boys all of whom stayed at home with him. They were commendable in their attitude toward their father and did his bid ding without a word of cvrgument. The only fault existing among them was their lo.ck of unity. They were forever fussing with one another. Nothing seemed to satisfy them. Thoir father's counsel seemed to come to naught. One day as the father was working In the field, he saw them together quarreling over a piece of, work. While watching them lie thought of a plan. He went home and cut forty-nlue stout seasoned hickory sticks eoch about two feet long. ? When the boys returned from the field, he told them to meet lilm In the back yard after dinner. When all were gathered at the appointed place, tho father Cftme in their midst and ad dressed them saying, "Sons I have a lesson I wish to teach you by an Il lustration." He then gave each of tbom seven of his sticks tied in a bundle* This being done, he said: Each of you take your bundle of sticks as they are and break all of them at once. They took them and strained their supple muscles against them, bu^ without results. Seeing that they had given up, the father said, "Now boyB untie your bundle of stlcTts and break them one at a time." TUIc they did with ease. "Well my sons that Is tho lesson: You see you could not break the sticks when they were together, but by takhng one at a time you des troyed them with ease. Now you all put that lesson Into practice. If yon all will stand togethor Instocd of earh one fusB and plot against the other, you will be successful; otherwise your liven Will be aa worthies* as a single stick was against your power."

C., May 4. 1922. , Editor News and Observer: Receiv ing rorkry the aecompanylng letter, I 'think it worthy of being given public ity. I am therefore sending it to you for publication with my endorsement of Mr. Beckwtth's candidacy for so licitor. I do so, because his ability as a lawyer is well known ; as an ad vocate he is the equal of any lawyer at the Raleigh bar, and as a citizen he is of the highest character. In my opinion he would make a great solici tor. I know that he would endeavor to administer the criminal laws fairly and impartially to all. J. H. FINLATOR. Captain J. H. Flnlator, ftatttfh, -Nor th. -Carolina . My dear Captain: I am a candidate for the nomination for Solicitor of this Judicial District, composed of the counties of Franklin and Wake. , I have gained some skill, by long practice, on and off the stump, in cam paigning for votes for others who have sought ofTice through the Demo cratic party. But it comes a bit awk ward to me to be asking for votes for myself ? it's a new business. Ab it is now become the custom to ask for what one wants in the way of ofTice, and, if one wants anything real bad, to go after the thing wanted, I am con forming to custom, good or bad, it matters not as it is here to say, and I am taking the liberty of asking for your support and for your vote in the June primary for the nomination, on the Democratic ticket, for Solicitor of this district. And I do not base any claims for. support for the nomination .on any I arty-service I may have given in ex e< utive committee rooms, as Secretary of the State Democratic Executive Committee for six years, as secretary of the State Association of Democratic Clubs in 1894. '96 *98, and on the stump and wherever called in many cam paigns, County, State and National, in the days when politics was a serious business and the campaigning no child's play; for whatever service I may have been able to give, as Secre tary, on the stum as speaker or else where, was gladly given and freely in the discharge of my duty as a Demo crat and as a citizen. Hut if there be virtue in Governor Vance's famous saying, "The horse that pulls the plow should eat the fodder," then. I might well plead such party service, in my ;><king Democratic support of my can didacy for public ofTice. I am seeking the nomination be cause I want the office, and because I mart am n well qualified to fairly and impartially administer its duties as any one of the other aspirants for the place. But you and other Demo crats to pass Judgement here. But I am frank enough to say that. if. af ter you have canvassed the claims of other candidates for the place, you shall find one better than 1 to dis charge the high duties of the office, by reason of his greater legal attainments superior skill as an advocate, higher < hristlan character as a citizen ot more valuable party service, then I do not, could not and would not ask for or expect your vote or support. Olre it to the most worthy. The best is none too good when life or death, freedom or bonds, of a fellow citizen, is the issue in every trial. But. if yon do not And one more worthy, then, I do ask for your vote In the primary and for your support generally. Sincerely. ;?-19-2t B. C. BECK WITH.
