POLITICAL DECEPTION
(From The Durham Herald)
(V stationery of the Simmons
i lon art ers in Raleigh, there is
VnV out a letter to women of the
~ which is about as rank a
of deception as has been
; n any state campaign, and
' e d only by the stuff that
j sewered out in the 1928 presi
,j election campaign. The let
-1 v. aich has been received in Dur
bVii. begins with this paragraph:
am writing to try* to enlist
, Mr influence as an active Chris
worker and one who stands for
better things of your commu
r>v. in behalf of Senator Sim
* JJ
\ palpable attempt to drag the j
church into the campaign. It is a|
r, tve of as low insinuation as could
[ >e devised, yet it is sponsored by j
the Simmons’ headquarters! It tries I
j i h ave the influence that Simmons
a saint and Bailey a devil in
church matters. That is the only
logical interpretation that the para
.r,..ph will permit. We wonder now
, „t how the records stack up in
regard to the church activities of
Simmons and Bailey? It would be j
interesting to see which has done
nloS t for his church. Regardless of
what one may think of Bailey as
a senator, he certainly will measure
up equally as well as Simmons in
niV.ter of church service, and no
doubt, his record for activity in
church matters far exceeds that of
the Senator. Bailey is an active
member in the First Baptist church
in Raleigh, and has a sister who
heads a state organization of Bap
tM women. Bailey for years was
editor of the Baptist publication in
this State. His voice has been lifted
more in the cause of religion than
Simmons has been lifted in the
cause of politics, long before Sim
mons was a convert to the political
expediency of prohibition.
But, the letter becomes more hu
morous as it goes on: “I sincerely
believe that it is the special business
of the women of the State to stand
by a man who has stood by them
down through the years in the great
battle against the liquor traffic.”
The writer of that letter would con
vey some interesting information if
she would tell where Simmons was
and what he was doing when Bailey
was head of the anti-saloon league
and going up and down the State
preaching day and night for the
cause of prohibition? Bailey was a
pioneer in the prohibition move
ment in the State, and because of
that work, made himself unpopular
for many years, only being taken
over by Simmons" organization when
it was found to be good politics
to espouse prohibition. And where
was Simmons when the women were
seeking the right of the ballot?
The concluding paragraph hopes
“that the women of" your county
can hold a meeting and bind them
selves together” for the Simmons
cause! Wants to hogtie the women
to the Simmons’ band wagon. If
we know anything about the inde
pendence of womanhood, they will
resent this effort to tie them hand
and foot to the Simmons" cause
through any such chains as set out
in the letter which contains the
above quotations.

Ey Charles Hanson Towne
If this bright Ely
Can live once more, j
And its white promice
Ee as before,
V/hy can not the great stone
Ee moved from His door?
If the green grass
Ascend and shake
Year after year,
And blossoms break
Again and again
For April’s sake,
Why can not He,
From the dark and mold,
Show us again
His manifold \
And gleaming glory,
A stream of gold?
Faint heart, be sure
These things must be.
See the new bud
On the old tree! ...
If flowers can wake,
Ch. why not He?

Might of Christianity
in the Resurrection
The Eiister Gospel, which we cele
brute by our greatest religious festi
val, with its truth of Immortality and
Resurrection, is the heart, center and
life of Christianity. ’ Paul prays that
“I may know Christ and the power of
His resurrection.”
This - great fact' has ever been the
propelling power of Christianity.
Christ was comparatively unknown
and was “despised and rejected of
men,” when He died upon the cross.
But when He arose, triumphant over
the powers of darkness, death and
hell, declaring, “All power is given to
me in heaven and on eafth,” and say
ing, “Lo, I am with you always!” then
His weak and terrified little band of
disciples felt themselves imbued with
irresistible power.
And in the strength of the Resurrec
tion, and of the leadership of the risen
Christ, they carried the great message
hither and thither, hot to Judea alone,
hut to the farthest ends of the earth.
Their hearts aflame with their mighty
Gospel, no persecutions could chill
their ardor; neither the jaws of lions,
nor the nails of the cross, nor burn
ing faggots of the stake, could silence
their testimony.
Easter Ceremonies in
Rome Have New Dignity
As though symbolical of the obltter
. atlon of old differences* between
church and state, flowers *ent by the
■governor of Rome adorn the classic
cross in the center of the Coliseum
where so many Christian mart#** flut
tered death prior to the advent of
Emperor Constantine.
Good Friday observances in all the
400 churches of Rome thus take on a
new impressiveness.
The most picturesque is the proces
sion of penitence across Rome to the
of .Santa Groce an 'Geru
srilemme where relics of the Savior’s
passion are exhibited. Many members
■of the Roman nobility participate in
the procession.
All the marchers carry ■smdll can
dles of yellow wax and chant in
chorus the canticle, “Long Live the
•Cross.*” before entering the church to
give homage to tire relics ‘Of the true
,-cross preserved there.

Indians Venerate the Stem
Among the North American In
dians the tobacco pipe has a pecu
liar symbolic significance in con
nection with the superstitious rites
and usages of the race, says Encyclo
paedia Britannica. The peace pipe or
medicine pipe is an object of pro
found veneration. Though the most
ancient pipes had no stem, it is the
stem only of the medicine pipe
which the Indians venerate. The
howl of a medicine pipe has no im
portance, one or another bowl being
used indifferently.

Two Friends
C'THEL’S two friends, Caroline awl
June cause tier a lot of perplexity.
She’s known them both for years and
in tier heart of hearts, June stands
first with frier. Yet other people criti
cize June constantly, while they unite
in loving admiration to the fair ‘Caro
line.
“Why on earth do you run around
with June so much?” demands Nancy.
“She’s the most un trust worthy, de
ceitful creature 4 ever knew. Her
whims and her moods get on tny
nerves. She’s the most tan popula r kid
in school and yet yon stick to her like
grim death.”
Ethel sighs. She doesn’t know her
self why she sticks to June. Certain
ly that young lady is difficult enough—
a creature of eternal changing moods
and ideas—a maiden of violent likes
and dislikes.
And why does she seek June’s so
ciety in preference to Caroline’s.
Caroline, sunny-haired, unimaginative,
quiet, precise, stands for quiet security.
She has no moods. She Is always the
same. Hors is a quiet self-satisfied
calm which brings peace to the lives
of her more turbulent friends.
Yet Ethel’s natural shrinking from
her is a perfect case of intuition with- f
out reason. For qf her two friends,
June is the one to be counted on the
final analysis—and Caroline the one to
be avoided.
It is so very often the case that the I
girl characterized as moody, irritable
and flighty has the true stuff in her — j
while the calm phlegmatic bundle of i
self-satisfaction who wins praise ( and j
admiration —is not to be counted on in !
an emergency.
June you see is passing through a >
difficult phase.
Her opinions are of no value, but !
her friendship is. Her very attitude j
shows that she is not seeking popu- '
iarity—that her idea of a perfect ex
istence does not necessitate her be
ing the center of an admiring group
of friends.
Now she makes enemies oftener
than friends. Yet the friends she
makes should trust her, for she is to
be depended on.
While Caroline, calm, competent,
sunnily smiling is on the way to make
every moment— striving to attract new
friends—doing her best always to he
the one girl everybody loves. Now j
you know, no girl in the world cau
achieve that. She must either take
a stand on one side or the other.

“By scientific classification and

avoid the waste of cultivating un- ,
profitable crops on marginal land, (
and convert soil unfit for one crop
into profitable use for a wholly
different crop.”— Dr. H. G. Knight,

“Farmers will grow good cotton
if they can sell it for more than poor
cotton. Selling at flat prices is the
commercial millstone. How farm
ers are to get more for producing
the better cotton is the crucial
question of cotton improvement.
The individual cannot change the
system, but communities of pro
ducers acting together .can obtain
better treatment.” —O. F. Cook,

There Used to Be a Law
Tobacco growing was started in «
England in the 16th century, but
the New England colonies raised
such a howl that in 1660 the grow
ing of tobacco in England was pro
hibited by law. It was not until 1782,
however, that England’s tobacco
crops were finally suppressed by
armed force and heavy penalties—
and by that time the Revolution
had separated the American col
onies from England and everybody
had forgotten the original reason
for stopping tobacco cultivation-
The legal restrictions, which ex
tended to Scotland and Ireland,
were not removed until 1910.
