An jkiea of the magnitude of its work cin be asoertaioed by some of the facts set fordi in a recent reisort issued by tiae gen era} secretary of the Ass^ation. Its membership at paresent numbers 326, three foarths of the number being active inaem* bers. Two meetings are held €;aeh week, at each meeting topics of individual and campus life are discussed. 20 membep of the Association engage in Sunday School «rork in seven ef the Suaday schools sourrounding Chapei Hill as teachers and help ers. For^the pastr two years the y. M. C. A. has rais^ each year $500 for the support of a missionary in China. The American iVIedical Associa tion has given a $200 p ward to Dr. W. B. MacNider, professor of pharmacology and college physician o! the University, For scientific reserch for the 1912. the award is a. recognition of pr. MacNider's extensive scien- titic reserch in the medical world in recent years. Prof. J. S. Holmes, State Forister, read apaper before the 201st n eeting of the Elisha Mitchell Scientific Society this week, on the ’’Forestry for the Eastern North Carolina Lumber men. ’ ’ In regarding forestry as a financial investment for both lumbermen and landowners of eastern North Carolina, Prof. Holmes gave three precautions t' a', should be headed: The prevention of forest fires, protec tion of young growth, and apo- vision for a regrowth. Prof. W, W. Peele, headmaster of Trinity Park School of Durham adressed the Y. M, C. A at the University this v/eek on the .subject of ’’Safe Principles.” The speaker said there were three lequisites for gjxtdness: strong conscience, strong "will and a strong intellect. ,;Tbe North Carolina Booklet, ” issued from Raleigh quarterly by the North Carolina Society, Daughters of Revolution, carries in this issue two creditable articles on North Carolina.” ’The forests of Dr. MUes’ Anl!-Paln Pills relieve pain Evening Times been ci«b- lished from minisfesrs upion the vice question there were ain un usual number of them which saw only one thing to the wb^l© problem of public prostitution ^et the€allen women to'join the chnr^. To. those *men and women who know the ireal world as mAii in his greed has transform^ it, this criticism betrays an ignor ance of life that is at once tragic and 'pathatic. What the who a?re traveling the ’^easiest way” need ifirst is »ot a church, but a home; not reiegion, but enough to eat and* wear without havei«g:lo pay for it with, their virtue, Oiae cannot convert many fallen women to Christianity and biald («p th^ir faith in Him who doeth all things well when these women know by experence that it is impossible in this Christian world to make enough in honeiJt -employment to buy food, mssaent and shelter. One can®ot)get very far u ing women of the under won to join church when these women area^fare that in many cases the were forced into the they are leading and have been kept there by tfee operation of an industrial economic atid political system wJhich churches defend and whidh are maintained by men who are pillars of the most prominent congregatijns This is not a iloose statement. It is sustained by the testimony fcr every social worker. It is sustai'^ed by the report of such organizatians as the Chicago Vice Commission, itself composed of men who rank high in church affairs, but who, nevertheless, after an investigation had thej courage to pen a terrific indict ment of chuicheF, religious organizations and Chritian in-1 dividuals who have permitted! (fend even defended) the comm-{ ercilizatiin of virture in this! country upon the plea they are j not their sister’s keeper Much less, how ftre many ©i them going to live and support a dependent riiother, or a crippl^ brother or sister, or a little child? What would a women making these wag^ do with a church membership? Where would sh^ be welcome, in the clothes she would be obliged to wesar? The question is one for the churches to answer. The need is not for Christain charity, but Christian justice. The way to f et i^ople into the Kindgom of God is first to provide some way whereby they may maintain a decent standing in the brother ho(^ of man. It istiue that ‘‘man cannot livelbybread alone” bjtitis dobly true that men aid women cannot live withouth bread at all. inmiiwiw R. F. D. No. 4. Rev. Mr. Knight of Elon Col lege filled Rev.

A large number of witnesses were examined today, all but one of whom had testified at prev ious trials ' growing out of the Hillsville tragedy, and their evi dence was a repetition of what they related when on the stand before. , Eli A. Packet was a member of the Carroll county jury that convicted Floyd Allen, which conviction precipitated the Hillsville shooting. He was placed on the witness stand today for the first time and partially eorropated the evidence given by deputy Sheriff Fowler to the effect that Sidney Allen shot twice at Judge Massie after the latter fallen out of his chair mortally wounded. He could not pjsitivly indentify the man he saw doing the shooting as the prisoner. In cross examining today the defence sought to bring out the position of Sheriff Webb with reference to other court officers when the firing began. The defence contends that ^e sheriff was shot by one of the others.
