The following from (he pen of
James Dempsey Bullock, of Wil
son, comes pretty near hilling the
n;iil right square on the head :
"We have noiiced lhai several
preachers laiely have asked,
"Whai of die young mun Absa-
Unuf rckrnng id me sins and
crimes ci ninai loday, ilie re-
spnnsibiliij lor ihcm and laying
stress on the. cluim dial our boys
ore not looked after properly,
They could also nsk, "What of
Ilie young girl, Kachel?" She
ccriuinly is not lending her fath
er's tlock hen she is out ai 1 1
and 12 o'clock ai night with Abso
lom away from iie busy haunts of
men in an auto.
Whai (Ids country needs today
is a few old fashioned mothers that
know more aboul patching than
politics, cooking than card parties,
darning than divorces, meeting
houses i tui n motion picture shows.
Yes, we need the old-fashioned
mother and father who believe in
looking after the bringing up of
their children instead of leaving it
to some organization like the Y.M.
C A., Boy Scouts, welfare officer,,
etc. Some think if they pay into
these organizations ihey have done
their duiy. These organizations
are a power for good for children
whose parents are unfilled 10 raise
them, bui nothing can lake the
place of i he counsel and guidance
of Christian parents.
If the world is ever going to be
better, it must commence with the
individual home. The world will
never be saved by drives. If the
Bible were written as things are
today one of ihe commands would
be, "Parents, obey your children,
seek first society and all things else
will be added."
Parents are willing today to sac
rifice the souls of their children to
get them into what is known as
society."

UNREQUITED AFFECTION,
What means that sad old word good-by
That wells up from the heart?
Thai often brings the bitter tear
When loved ones have to pari.
Did not we know ihai absence brings
A pang of sorrow deep,
We might perchance not lake on so
Nor yet one (ear drop weep.
But Where's love's charm has brightest been
Where love sweet faith has kept,
'Tis hard to surrender all
And try, and all forget.
Had no loved word ere passed the lip
lindearing terms unknown,
The bitter siroke that harshly fell
Might not have been my own.
Bui why should one hold vain regret?
When withering hope lies dead,
A faded flower can ne'er rebloom
When on its leaves we iread.
Jusi so, the heart is withered, crushed
Where no responsive thrill,
Shows forth from any act in life
From lost affection's will.
Be it so, sweetheart once dear
I yield! I will not chide,
I failed to win a jewel fair
Now sorrow must abide.
Bui when the soothing hand of time
Shall o'er me comfort fling,
A brighter day may come my way
And all dark clouds take wing.
