Is the world any better because I am here ? Have I added a mite to its sunshine or cheer? The angels are keeping ml record, I know, In the book of remembrance. Oh, what does it show? Does it tell of a stranger I helped by the way? Does it tell of a burden I lightened one day? - Or does it read that away from duty I turned, And the cry of the helpless and suf -1 sering I spurned? ; Is the world any happier since I am here ? Has my heart touched another with smile or with tear? Have I pointed a soul to the kingdom, j above ? j And taught it to trust in the Author j of love? . Have I shared with a brother, a sis ter or friend, The blessings which God doth contin ually send? Or self ishly hid them away in my , heart, Like some miser refusing with treas ures to part? Is this world any happier since I am here ? Has my light made the pathway any i more clear? * I Has it glimmered afar to some soul sore distressed i And guided it safe to the Haven of rest ? , Or have I foolishly hid away j ’Neath the folly of fashion and world j ly display ? These questions are solemn. What will I see When the record of Heaven is opened , to me? —Selected. mm $ am BRICK PLANT CHANGES HANDS. ! Carolina Banner. < The Goldston Brick Company, of near Cumnock, is now under the man agement of L. M. Barry, of Smith field, a manufacturer of wide exneri ence, and his assistant William Lay- j ton. also of Smithfield. The plant is situated two miles above Cumnock, on the Norfolk South, ern railway, in close proximity to the coal mines, and is thus enabled to ob tain fuel at low rates. The plant was organized six vears ago at Cumnock by E. M. Goldston j and R. L. Goldston and was operated j successfully. Later it was incorporat- j ed with t ,-, e Goldston Brothers. W. W. Brewer, W. H. Hill, W. H. Kennedv - a’"d others as stockholders. The plant was opened at the present location where there are two hundred acres of material, enough to last a life time. R. L. Tavlor then purchased the " stock and he and W. H. Hill oper- | ated the plant last year. They were i verv successful, and the prospects are 1 that the new organization will eclipse , all previous records. Messrs Barry and Layton are pro- ! ceeding with the erection of new kilms and installation of new machinery, with a view to increasing the output. Fayetteville is to have eight feet of j water in the river there.
