Bible Thoughts memorized, will prove a E
priceless heritage in after years. |
VAU’K OK A GOOD:—A good name
is rather to be chosen than great riches,
and loving favour rather than silver and
gold.—Proverbs 22:1.
MCST HAVE BEEN GI’KSS WORK.
j The list of,“authorities" called in by
Secretary Wallace to figure out l>o\v{
many acres of cotton the farmers, 'lap
tbnded to plant this year, has been made
public, and after learning something of
them, especially of their home and work,
it seems reasonable to say their was
guesswork. There are eighteen names
on the list and it includes four New
York bankers, some professors at Har
vard, Yale and Cornell, and others scat
tered from Philadelphia in the East to
lies Moines in the West, most of whom
probably never saw a cotton field. Among
the eighteen there is not a man from the
South and only one is a cotton man.
The whole thing repiipds yis „.of a
statement we saw in a newspaper re
cently. that newspaper defilading “the
proceeding was about as sensible as it
would be to get eighteen men from Mex
ica to estimate the amount of snow that
Will fall in Saskatchewan next year.”
The whole thing has been unusual and
has caused much dissatisfaction in the
Hotrtfi. .lust why Secretary Wallairfe
should give ont such a report as his de
partment issued is hard to understand.
And it is even harder to understand why
he did not get experts for the work if
he were determined to get data and
make it public. There are men in the
South who could have told him just what
he wanted to know, but in all probabil
ity they would not have wanted to serve
had they known the nature of the re
port to be made following their investi
gation.
The crop estimates of the Agriculture
Department in most instances are inac
curate, but this forecast as to what the •
farmers of the South “intend” to do is
the limit in this direction. For whose
benefit was the report issued? It could
wot help the farmer any, and there are
people who feel that it has cost Jhim mil
lions of dollars, for with cotton experts
calculating the cotton yield on the re
port of these northerners the price of
cotton has been affected by flip report.
If it lias not helped the farmer, then who
has been the beneficiary?
If the government js to continue this
policy of fortune-telling it is to be hop
ed that men “on the ground.” men who
can see for themselves, will be called in
to give testimony and advice.
ANYTHING FOR HARMONY.
President Harding within the past few
months has had much to say about his
international court plau. Iu practically
every public utterance since he first
sponsored the plan, he has pointed out
the necessity of American supiwirt for
his proposal. And now comes Senator
Watson, of Indiana, one of the most in
fluential of the Republican leaders, with
the announcement that reservations will
be attached to Mr. Harding's first pro
positi. The reservations are to be tack
ed on to save the Republican party.
'Harmony. That is the keynote of the
Republican party at present. By put
ting the reservations on the court part
the President will be getting his plans
through, the Senate will be getting its
modifications, the- Republican party will
, be getting harmony, and the public will
be getting nothing. The reservations
will take away til effect of the court
plans, but what does that matter in
comparison with party harmony?
oft is a proepeet because it
tnedns putty the New York
/Times says. “For the purpose of se-•
curing' that supreme object, the Presi
dent is expected to ussent to the reserva
tions of the Senate -after they have done
their worst. The World Court is a I
.great project, a dawning fulfillment of
t&o desire of all nations, but it must siak
■lnto insignificance compared with the
T- 1 1
i unity of the Republican party. To as-’
, sure and perpetuate that, a thousand
f reservations would be too few for Sena-;
r tors patriotically to sacrifice for the sake:
of their beloved country.” /

• Crash of Mteklenbur? Mills and People’s
Band at Salisbury Wipes Out Savings.
Salisbury. June 10.—Salisbury pass
ed a quiet Sunday with no new de-'
velopments in the situation' regarding;
the closed bpnks or the status of the
Mecklenburg Mill/ company. At First.
Methodist church the pastor. Rev. John
F. Kirk, preached to a large congrega
tion the same kind of a sermon he.
preaced at Statesville immediately fol
lowing the great flood of 1916 when
such havoc was wrought in that section
of the country, and the sermon was :fs
appropriate here today as the one -he
used after the flood for* members of
First church were hit harder and more
often by the failure ofthe mills and the
closing of the People’s bank than any
other group of people in the county.
Several lost practically all they had in
the world in the mill crash and scores
have all their savings as well as their
cheeking accounts tied up in the closed
People’s bank. Individual losses to mem
bers of this church range from a few
dollars to tens of thousands. At the
meeting of the Smoot Raraca class, one
of the largest organized classes in this
section, the teacher. A. L. Smoot, who
has taught the class -|ince its organiza
tion. attempted to afFer his resignation
because of embarrassment that might
arise on account of his connection with
the closed bank as cashier, but he was in
terrupted by protests and words of af
fection and a general vote of confidence
and handshaking followed that was en
gaged in by every one present.
ANDERSON MAKES A
QUICK REN TO RALEIGH
Remarkable Record on Cross Country
Run Made Between Gastonia and
Raleigh.
Carlotte Observer.
Last week Dr. George W. Relk. of
Gastonia, had* a patient that had to be
carried to Raleigh fbr Immediate
treatment. Knowing that Mri T* ; I>.
Reinhardt of Gastonia operated sev
eral Anderson touring cars in public
service he called on him to make the
trip.
Tlie case being urgent. Mr. Uebi
ardt was told to pay no attention to
over zealous cops or others meddlesome
busy-bodies en route. With four pas
sengers in the car.' Mr. Reinha nit made
the trip to Raleigh in four hours flat.
The speedometer showed a total of
209 miles including detours made which
made the average running time 50
miles per hour for four hours without a
stop, so far as we know, is a record
from Gastonia to Raleigh.
A farmer who turned politician was
making a campaign for office. His t>p-»
pouent visited the former’s old neigh
borhood and asked one of the neighbors
if he knew tse candidate.
“O yes,’* said the neighbor/
“Is lie a liar?”
“Wall. now. I couldn’t say he is a
Har, but* when he wants his pigs to
come to their feed he has to get some
body else to do the callin’.”

Early Applications of Nitrate Pay Best.
B. L. Moss, in The Progressive Farmer.
IVith the rapid increase in the use
►f nitrate of soda there is coming a
much better knowledge of the principles
underlying its successful use. The old
idea, that nitrate of soda is leached out
>f the soil and gone a few weeks after
its application, is being dispelled. But
even so, I believe it is quite safe to say
thiH much nitrate will again be applied
too late this year for best results.
With cotton under weevil conditions.
and this means practically all cotton in
the South now. Y doubt the wisdom or
idvisnbility of side-dressings, except in |
rare cases where there may be a deep I

of acid phbsplpOe and 200 to 3001
pounds of nitrtate per acre, we arc ap
plying it all just before planting, cx
i cept on some small experimental areas,
where side-dressing will be tried.
We had first thought of bolding back
about 100 pounds per acre of nitrate to
be used as a side-dressing: but the
extra labor required for applying it.
with tbe constant danger of getting it
around the cotton too late, because of
bad weather or pres* of other work, led
us to decide in favor of putting it all
at pi anti ug time.
With corn, while the nitrate snould
V around the crop, rather than under
it. it is probably true that most side
applications are made too late for best
results. The best evidence nqw avail
able indicates that, on an average, ni
trate will pay best on corn when ap
plied at the time the plants are about
two feet high. It is a serious mistake *o
wait until laying-by time or until the
corn is bunching to tassel.

Mothers of Famous Men
The Mother of George Murray. '
In the history of Scotland the names
of Hamilton and .Murray have played
great parts. Many fine old romances
gling around those names—and especial
ly around the name of Hamilton. In
the last of the seventh Century Cath
erine Hamilton became the wife of a
Duke of Atholl, who was noted for his
loyalty to the crown. Catherine Hamil
ton was a proud, slendor Scotch girl
when she the Duke. She was
not what one would have called a ra
diant court beauty, but she had - a vi
vacity and a- strength of character that
made her a real leader, even in a day
when women were given little poler.
Her father was no less a person than
the Duke of Hamilton.
In addition to her pride of family
Catherine Hamilton had inherited some
thing else that she thoroughly intended
to pass on to her son George—and that
was the very characteristic that marked
her husband, the Duke of Atholl, —love
of the king and loyalty to him. “Live
for the King." she told her liftle boy
day after day. “Live for the king!
Tight for the King; Die for the King!
That is what the Hamiltons have -always
done. That is what you. must always
ilo.” Then on other times she would
say "Bonnie George, laddie George^—sit
ye down, and hear a tale.” Then she
would tell him stories of kings and
princes, and princesses and of loyal
knights who fought for them. Thus
I Catherine, of the Hamiltons —proud
lady—trained her son George to fight
for the king. He grew up and became
that Lord George Murray who gave ev
erything for "Bonnie Urim-e Charlie.”
If ho could have been opeyetl he
would have won the battle of Culloden
in 1749. and have put "Bonuie Prince
Charlie" on the throne. Lord George
Murray fulfilled all his mother's wishes,
and bettune tlie devoted defender of
royalty.
Next: The mother of Viscount Falk
