The Baptist Church of Oeala, Fla., has expelled every member whose name has been found on a petition in favor of granting a liquor license. Andrew Harper, who died recently in Mississippi, was the author ot a fa mous piece of American humor knowu as the Hard Shell Baptist Sermon, the text of which derlared,' An' he played on a harp of a thousand strings , spcr ets of jus' men made perfect." The camels turned loose upon the Arizona desert some years ago have so multiplied tnat they now roam the Gila Valley in herds of 100 or moie. The hunters of the Territory hnvc great sport in etiasing thorn. A camel hum is a loug way ahead of the old-fashioned deer drtre. WE MUST HAVE SCHOOLS. There is nothig that adds more to i •community than good schools. W feel the need of them. Here in olt Stokes, where we breathe the purest aii and feast the eye on tho grandest sccu cry ; where granl forests of the fines timber abound, with magnificent water power on every band ; where such i great variety of valuable minerals ex ist, we are forced to believe that Natun has deno as much, if not more, foi Stokes than any county in the good 01( North State, with the single exoeptiot of giving us a man. Yes, we need mci with clear, clean grit in their crops, am good, sound, home sense in their heads Nature has uot been stint in giving u raw material, of which to make inen.- Our boys, and girls too, possess as muel good, sound, natural sense, integrity and virtue as any tho sun shines upon but they lack polishing. We need gooi sehools and good instructors to impresi upon our young people that "when there's a will there's a way." We wan competition in knowledge, in push, and it doing right because it is right. The old people aro to blauio for thi lethargy and indolence of their children aid for inculcating into their younj minds that all it is nocessary for then to know is how to make and "ob*w" to bacco, tell a slick lie and drink whisky And just here : without a change it twenty years from to-day, we will be i nation of drunkards; and some of ui may livo to s«o the littlo curly-headed boy we now dandle upon our knee, 03- oupying the convict's cell or filling a drunkard's grave. The first step to ward preventing those result* is home inatrwotion. And then we must have weU-diaoiplined schools. Then an some men in Stokoi who think that the money spent in giving a ehild an educatioa is thrown away.— Such men are fools for the want ol sense. They want their children to be just as they bavo been, and nearly the whole coouty is to-day "hewers of wood and drawers of watur" for the rest ol the world. Let ns wake np! Wc have acted the fool long enough. We ba*e triad the "ponny wise* and pound foolish" policy long enough. To say that a great county likii Stokes, witl more than sixteen thousand inhabitants cannot furnish schools to educate hoi sons and daughtors, and thus uonipe them to leave her borders to get an ed ucation, is a shame and a disgrace t the pioaymiish, little-soulcd grown u[ people of the oounty.
