V The people of Kimton at large, aa well ai his congre gation, are pleaaed that Rev. H. A. Humble was returned to the ' pastorate of the Queen Street Methodist church. Mr. Humble has just concluded his . first year's work here, and it haa been a suc cessful one.- During the time the church has frown and th. report made to the Conference was considered a most flattering one. Mr. Humble haa been outspokenly oppos ed to vice and questionable amusements. The Free Press extsnda to Mr. Humble its best wishes for another goo year. In his work. ' ".".' ' There will be many opportunities afforded every man, woman and child in Kinston, who haa "plenty and to pare,' to lo some charity tomorrow to carry a ray of sunshine Into some darkened corner. Perhaps some lit tle) kindly deed, a cheering word, a bunch of flowers or a plate of "dainties" will serve to brighten some soul, other wiee dark and desolate. Let ua not forget the less fortu nate brother when we give thanks and let us manifest our gratitude, remembering that deeda speak louder than THE CONVICT MATTER SHOULD BE SETTLED. The case of Guard Mintchew, in which he was fined in Magistrate Peebles' Court for whipping an unruly convict, present a situation that should be settled in the State. ( Several like casea have come up, and in some of them, us was developed in Mr. MinUrhew's behalf, that the guard was developed in Mr. Mintchew's behalf, the guar unruly convicts. The Supreme Court has panned upon the matter, and its opinion was that the whipping of con victs was not in accordance with the constitutional rights of the victims, at the same time Home of the numbers of the court thought it permissable under certain condition At any rate it is a mooted subject, and it nhould be net tied, and a definite policy pursued throughout the State with referenre to corporal puninhment for the recalci trant prisoner. The Free Press believes in the rule of kindness. It advocates the provision of the best environ ment that is possible under the circumstances, the Rep aration of the first offenders from the hardened criminal and the earnest endeavor to uplift the unfortunate break ers of the law, rather than foster a system whereby once in durance vile, always a felon. The guard's action was within the bounds of authority given by his superiors, but not necessarily within legal limits, and it was well enough for the case to be appealed, if once for all the question can be settled. 1 f PINK HILL IS PROSPEROUS r j The Free Press if glad that most of the stores of Kin- aoa art going to eloae their doors Thursday and allow fjie. employes an uninterrupted rest and observance of the d4y.It la fiot practical for newspapers to close up shop, but' It ia the desire and purpose of the management of jit Free Press to afford the faithful workers as much of thVdky as possible, and an effort ia being made to go to press about 1 o'clock, which schedule will be maintained, baVrh unforeseen obstacles. ft l':rh'. vM" - a ( The death 'of Mr. John Laws, father of Mn. L. P. Tapp ofthia city, ends one of the most unique public ofHce holding records In the annala of American government Mr. Laws had reached the ripe old age of ninety-four, and for alxty-four yeara had held the office of Regiater of Deeds of Orange County. Mr. Laws waa the only man that haa ever held the office in his county, having been elected when the place waa created, and each succeeding tern baa been the choice of hla fellow-men. The people of, Orange, it would appear, do not believe in rotation in office when the incumbent ia capable and faithful. It is a bad idea to "swap horses" when the one in the harness U pulling aU right ' WIIEBl The Free Press today publishes a "Pink Hill Edition, in which is set forth the many advantages of this thriv ing town in the southern part of Lenoir. Recently Chamber of Commerce has been organized and the very unique distinction of having every citizen of the town enrolled and an enthusiastic and energetic "booster" fo his home town is enjoyed by the infant civic body. Pink Hill is situated in a fertile agricultural section where th farmers have already begun to diversify their crops and raise some meat and food stuff and where the possibili ties for greater development along these lines are most evident A few weeks ago a party of Kinston Boosters went over the country contiguous to Pink Hill on thei i way to Deulaville, and every man Svas impressed with opportunities given for intensified farming methods. Pres ident J. H. Young of the Norfolk Southern, who was with the party, remarked a number of times that in all his travels he had not looked upon more fertile fields or a country that he considered more capable of great agri cultural development He told the people of the section that they had just begun to tickle the earth, and that they had no idea what could be accomplished until they applied modern methods to utilize the resources. The Pink Hill spirit is the development one. The population of the thriving little town is now but a few beyond two hundred, but those two hundred are actively at work to bring more peoplo and they are offering very strong inducements for desirable newcomers. Free factory sites and the co-operation of the Civia Chamber are promised, and it is proposed to lend every assistance to those who would settle in the growing community. Last week a special representative ef The Free Press went over to Pink Hill and called upon the Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. C. S. Willard, to make an appointment to meet with the executive committee with reference to the Pink Hill section of The Free Press, and when he appeared at the place of meeting a few hours later he found the whole membership of the body pres ent and enthusiastic for the plan of "getting their town in the lime light." Such is the spirit that will make Pink Hill grow and which has already entitled it to its slogan, "Pink Hill is Wide Awake." :j MAR KHS TODAY'S .:. QUOTATIONS ?

In an effort to guard against a tendency towards monopoly of the poultry-packing in dustry and to prevent its falling into the hands of a few big interests, as haa happened to the beef packing in dustry, the Department of Agricul ture has just issued a warning to chicken raisers to give encourage ment and support to local poultry packing industries in all parts of the country. "There is danger, poultry specia lists of the department feel, that the poultry industry will become as high ly centralised as the beef industry in a few distant packing centers," the department warns. In this event, just as the farmer with a few beef cattle to dispose of has to seek a market several hundred miles away or deal through local commission men or agents who will buy live cattle, chicken raisers, unless local poultry dressing and refrigerating establish ments are maintained, will have to dispose of their product for live ship ment to Chicago and other centers. From the point of view of the con sumer, the Department says, the ten dency to ship live poultry long dis tances by rail is decidedly wasteful. Poultry shipped 400 or 500 miles, even under the best conditions of transit loses an average of 30 per cent in weight the Department's specialists compute. Chickens that have travel ed long distances by rail reach the killing centers in much worse con dition than those which are sent a few miles. Besides, the additional cost of feeding is an important item. SUFFERED TWENTY-ONE YEARS FINALLY FOUND RELIEF. Having suffered for twenty-one years with a pain in my side, I finally have found rolief in Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. Injections of morphine were my only relief for short periods of time. 1 became so sick that I hnd to undergo a surgical operation in New Orleans, which benefited me for two years. When the same pain came buck one day I was so sick that I gave up hopes of living. A friend advised me to try your Swamp Root and I at once commenced using it.
