F^i^fosmi News ) Redtd Is Gi^en THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1933 A Memorial That Will Stand • The Boston Post takes note of the re cent announcement of the Cone family fol lowing the close of the North Carolina Bank and Trust company. The editorial terms the Cone family's decision as a “me morial better than any statue or endow ment.” The editorial follows: One of the best memorials ever devised is that given in the name of Caesar Cone, who died some years ago after a career in man ufacturing In Greensboro. X. C. Starling in a small way. Cone prospered, and eventually. With the aid of a brothe’, founded the Tex tile bank for the savings of his employes. Aft er his death the bank wa.s absorbed by the North Carolina Bank and Trust company. Before the bank holiday, the X'orth Carolina Bank and Trust company closed. Recently, on the doors of the bank's Tex tile branch, appeared a notice: “As a tribute to his memory, the family of Caesar Cone have decided to see that all depo.sitors in the Textile bank, and its successor, the Textile fcranch, shall receive full payment of the bal ances to which they are entitled.” The pledge will cost the family about S.'IOU.OOO, hut it will save untold misery among the deposi tors. That is a memorial better than any Statue or endowment. ‘ 1 X. and'1918. The poppy is a symbol of remembrance for the World War dead. Poppies glowing on every coat on Poppy Day 'will show that we still remember and honor the su preme sacrifice our war dead made for America. A country which remembers deeds such as their’s cannot be indifferent to present calls for patriotic service. As long as the memory of our heroes is kept bright, America can i be confident that heroic service will come from its citizens in every hour of need. The women of the American Legion Auxiliary, who will bring us the poppies on Poppy Day, are carrying out a vei7 valuable work for the country. With their memorial flowers they are helping keep alive a memory more precious than vast material riches—the memory of men who were willing to die that America might live in freedom and happiness. With the poppy contributions, they are helping car ry on for the disabled veterans and fath erless families. With the poppy they are calling to us alt to carry on for America in ,the spirit of those heroic men the flower commemorates. Every American who is a true American should show his response by wearing a poppy on Poppy Day. Good Work Juniors of North Carolina have every reason to be proud of Vance Hall which will be presented to the national council next Tuesday. It is truly their auditorium for each member contributed a small sum at intervals over a period of three years. The work of the Juniors in this state has been exceptionally fine. They have carried on and perhaps have weathered the depression as well, if not better, than any other fraternal organizations. The fact that they have built Vance Hall during the hard times Ls itself a monument to their willingness to sacri fice and the auditorium is a real contribu tion to orphan children of the state and country. The Turn of The Tide Prices have begun to ri.se. That i.s the best news the country has had in three years. The rise has .stalled where it ought to start, with the ba.sic preducts of agri culture. Wheat, cotton, corn, hogs, tobac co, rice, dairy products, have all stalled upward. Some are rising faster than oth ers, but all are showing an upward ten dency. We do not think That this i.s merely an other "fal.se alarm.” We believe that fac tors have been brought into play which wall put prices up .still higher, until we reach somewhere near the level of 1926. That i.s what those in charge of the na tion's destinies are aiming at we are told. That would mean that the average of commodity prices would be more than double present prices, in some instance.s, half to two-thirds higher in others. Starting with the products of agricul ture, the rise in prices is bound to extend to industrial products. For when the farm er begins to get a profit from his oper- ation-s he can begin to pay up his back taxes and mortgage interest, to buy the commodities he and his family require. Money thus put into circulation enables other.s, in> turn, to buy at prices which mean a profit to the seller. That means that manufacturer.s can start up their fac tories again. The people have not stopped wanting to buy things. The only reason they have stopped buying is lack of money to buy with. There is not and never has been “overproduction” in the sense that more commodities were produced than people wanted. Our whole social system is built upon multiplying wants and as money circulates again people will gratify those wants. Wear Their Flower To America, now going forward in a great drive against the economic enemies which have invaded the country, comes a message from the men who fifteen years ago were giving their lives in defense of the country against an armed enemy.

On only one occasion did he deliver a long^ discourse, and that was probably interrupted often by questions and debates. He did not come to establish a theo logy but to lead a life. Living more healthfully than any of his contemporaries he spread health wherever he went. Thinking more daringly, more divinely, he expressed himself in thoughts of sur passing beauty, as naturally as a plant bursts into bloom. His sermons, if they may be called sermons, were chiefly explanatory of his service. He healed a lame man, gave sight to a blind man, fed the hungry, cheered the poor; and by these works he was advertised much more than by his words. The church, which covets advertising and re ceives little, is much more faithful in such good work than the man on the street suspects. Most of our colleges were founded under its inspiration; most of our hospitals grew out of, and are support ed by its membership! the ideals that animate all civic enterprises are its ideals; and its members furnish to such movements the most dependable support. More than this, the day by day life of any genuine pa.stor is a con.stant .succession of healings and helpings, as any one who has been privileged to gn.w up in a minister’s family very well knows The d.ior-bell rings at breakfa.st time; it rings at dinner-time; it rings at night—and every ring means that some one has come to cast his burden upon the parsonage. A man comes blinded by his gr- ed or hatred or fear—he opens his heart to the pastor, and goes away having received his .sight. -A parent whose child is dead in selfi.shness, conies leading the child by the hand. And some times the preacher is able to touch the withered veins of conscience, and life becomes normal and wholesome again. A man out of w'ork, who.se fam ily is hungry, knocks timidly at the parsonage door. .And somehow, from the par.son's few loaves and fishes, the other family is fed. The.se arc Jesus’ works, done in Jesus’ name. If he were to live again, in the.se modern days, he would find a way to make them know—to be ad- v Tti.sed by hi.s .service, not merely by hi.s sermons. One thing i.s certain: He would not neglect the market-place.

Says Her Husband Lost 16 Pounds i In 4 Weeks “I have never found a medi cine thi f ‘peps' you up like Kru- Bchen Salts and better still, leaves you ‘pepped up.’ I take it two or three times a week—not (Reidtville Review) In the.se days of chaotic financial conditions, those who take out of circulation the means of bolstering and re.storing credit and employment, are, in effect, public enemies. There is one kind of hoarding that prolongs 'de pression, that cannot be fought by governmental action. Millions of people in this country have good incomes—incomes which are as large or larger than ever, when the increasing buying power of the dollar is considered- They have cash on hand, and they can afford to spend it for necessities for them selves. But fear, inertia, uncertainty prevent them from investing it where it can do good—where it can do good—where, in brief, a dollar can accomplish ne cessary work. There will be fear, inertia and uncertainty in this country until something is done to provide em ployment, ,to create demand for products of farms and industries, to step-up the general purchasing power, to start slacker dollars rolling. One of the best ways to make dollars useful is to spend them for property improvement—to paint the house, put in a new furnace, install some needed electric wiring or appliance, replace sagging foun dations or tottering chimneys, beautify the grounds, repair or replace the roof or the steps, and so on. When sruch things are done, dollars start rolling in an unending circle—^they go into a hundred p-:.y envelopes, touch a hundred different businesses and industries. You can make needed repairs and build now cheaper than ever. You can secure improvements at rock-bottom prices you may never see again. And while you are benefiting yourself in this man ner you are likewise doing your bit to demonstrate that regular jobs for others arc better and cheap er than charity, and that without jobs there soon Won't be anything left for charity. weeks.” Mrs, E.
