The Lord Is Good Serve the Lord
with gladness: eouie before his presence

lhercy is everlasting: and his truth en-
Mk to rtl! K-ration*. —XNulut MO:
Dear Folks:
To Europe seems to be the cry of those
who have the meaus. They long to vis
it foreign shores with all their magic
scenes. There seems to be a certain
lure in all that’s overseas, a thing that's
common over here, when over there, will
please.
So off the eager tourists go with han
dkerchief boodbys. and soon they have
the sea below and up above, the skies.
They’re sick most all the way across
and yet they bravely smile, because they
know they're up to date and keeping up
with style. They visit London first of
course, and then they see I’aree, they
think they’re talking French because
they learn to say ou oui. The Ger
many is next in line and keeps them V
the go. until perchance they find their
funds are getting rather low.
Then home again they come at last;
to say they've been abroad, to tell about
their meeting with a Duke or Court or
J-iOrd. They wink their eyes and nod
their heads when speaking qf Paree.
when all they did when there was loaf
and drink Parisian tea.
Perhaps some day I’ll go there too,
who knows what time will bring? It:
may be that fn foreign lands someday
I'll take my fling. But home looks
mighty good to me, it satisfies my thirst,
and ere I go to pay _ Paree, I’ll see my
country first.
Cordially yours—T. V. R.
WILL THEY TELL ABOUT THIS?
Among the promiscuous items of Con
gressional expenses in Washington, a dis
patch says, two of the largest are for
telegrams, 40,000, and telephone tolls,
about 2,500 a month. "There has been
a considerable increase recently in the
cost of the telephones," says William T.
Page, clerk of the House, “because many
members dislike walking from one side
of the room to the other and have had
extra telephones installed."
Has walking become a lost art with
tlie Congressmen or are they too busy
now to walk to a telephone? It seems
ridiculous that this amount of money
should be spent when there is a call on
all sides for economy. President Cool
declared the Country could mpt\
give the postal employees a raise because
economy had to be practiced. He had
better start with Congress.' If he would
make the Congressmen cut out these tel
ephone and telegraph bills there would
be enough money to pay the postal peo
ple before long.
This money may have been spent for*
a good purpose but somehow we have a
feeling that it will not be mentioned
when the Congressmen are making their
campaign speeches during the summer.

THE AIR LINER SON TO COME.
Count Erich von Zeppelin, nephew of

" The fact thft the Shenandoah has been
,* able to make some long cruises and was
r able on one memorable occasion to fight
. a terrific wind storm for many hours,
hps changed the minds of many persons
r about the kind of machine to be used in
air travel. There was a time, and not so
1 long ago, when the “gas bag” was re- 1
1 garded by the puWic generally as very
1 dangerous, but this feeling seems to be
. changing. The airplane is regarded by
many as the safest method of air travel,
but at the same time the limitations of
the plane are admitted. Dirigibles al
, ready have made a number of trips that
’ would have been practically impossible
for the airplanes and their greater carry
■ ing capacity is another point in their
favor.
! WILL TICKET BE McADOOSMITH?
ij q:
■i .Already ' there are rumors that ■ the
Democratic ticket for the next election
1 will be composed of William G. McAdoo
and A1 .Smith. Neither can be nominated
unless there is an agreement, some party
leaders say, and the agreement will mean
that both will be nominated.
And all of the time there is growing
strength for John W. Davis and in some
quarters strength for Carter Glass. Many
persons argue that Davis is one of the
ablest men in the public life of America
today but they are not certain that he
will arouse the people.
It is pointed out at the same time that
McAdoo and Smith would constitute one
of the greatest “vote getting" tickets
the country has ever known. Both are
extremely popular in certain groups and
among certain classes and their strength'
lies in almost wholly different places.
But would Governor Smith accept the
■ Vice Presidential nomination? That’s an
other question that has to be decided
And in the meantime the country is
waiting with feverish anxiety for action
by the convention.

’great CITY NO JUZZLE
TO WJLAJAM SAUNDERS
Elisabeth City Boy Scout, IS. Shakes
i Hands With At and Everything.
New York, June 22.—The World Sat
urday morning contained the following
story relative to the visit to New York
of William Saunders. 12 years old, of
Elizabeth City, N. C.:
Let those»among you, whether resi
dents or visitors, who consider it diffi
cult to find their way about in New
York City, paste in their campaign hats,*
j this cEronicle of William Keith Saund
ers, tinrteen-years-old native of Elizabeth
City, N. C„ here on his first visit to any
big town and. “doing" the metropolis
alone and unaided save by an occasional
cop.
Keith, as his family and friends call
him, has been here since Suuday. When
he returns to Elizabeth City next week
he will be equipped to act as guide to
the next Carolina contingent that comes
;n-visiting us. ' ’
Without fear, escort or lost motinh
lie has traveled from the Battery to the
Bronx, from Coney Island to the Hud
son River and from the Woolworth tower
to the Hudson tubes. His itinerary in
cluded the Aquarium, the museums, zoos
Hippordoine, Grant’s Tomb and the Sta
tue of Liberty.
His political leanings toward William
G. MlcAdoo were considerably shaken
yesterday by a warm handclasp and wel
come from Gov. Smith and Franklin D.
Roosevelt, where ns at Mr. McAdoo’s
headquarters in the Vanderbilt Hotel he
received a souvenir bandana, but learned
with regreat that Mr. McAdoo was at
luncheon. .
Although the average boy of Keith’s
age," «alone in New York, for the first
time, would not venture for afield, Keith
unhesitatingly hits the long trail in any
direction. He is a boy seout and at
tributes his ability to find his way about
and take care of himself largely to his
scout training.
Undeterred by darkness, he has been
on the go nightly until long past Elezi
beth City bedtime. Wednesday night
he journey to the Velodrome, found a
Scoutmaster who helped him get by the
doorman And saw Romero-Rojas out
point Joe Stoessel.
Thursday night he bought a ticket
for “Kid Boots” at the Earl Carroll
theater and after the performance went
to the stage door, sent in his card and
was ushered into the dressing room of
Mary Eaton, star, who is related to
Keith's father. William O. Saunders,
publisher of the Elizabeth City Inde
pendent.
Mr. Saunders is being treated at the
Post Graduate hospital. Keith is stay
ing at the Hotel Irving. No. 26 Gram
erey Park. The father, who sees Keith
once a day, is sure his boy can take care
of himself and has told him only to be
ware of strangers and, if lost, to hop into
a taxicab and drive back to the hotel.
Yesterday Keith took a reporter for
The World on a little daylight jaunt.
Keith was boss of the trip, the reporter
merely following directions. They walk
ed from the Hotel Irving to the Sixth
Avenue “L.” At Hector Street station
the boy announced "We get off here.’’
Without asking a question lie walked
east to Broadway, north to Wall Street,
east through IVall Street to the East
River. There he asked a longshoreman
ito point out Fulton Market. Fishing
is a great industry arouud Elizabeth
City.
From Fulton Market, where Keith
met William H. Cornell, its secretary,
he led the reporter to the Seeond Avenue
“L.” Leaving that at South Ferry,
Keith said to a bystander: “Where is
the boat for the Statue of Liberty?”
HU comment when he reached the base
of the statue was that it was not so
tall as the Woolworth. Then came the
campaign headquarters calls —at Keith's
suggestiond and under his leadership.
“The only thing that worrits me is
traffic." said the boy, just after negotiat
ing Fifth Avenue at 33rd street. “At
home there is only one traffic cop and
he works on Main Street only during
rush hours every Saturday when ]>eo|ile
come into town. The traffic here keeps
me jumping. This is a nice town to
visit, but I wouldn't care to live here.”
I Asked if he feared being held up or.
kidnapped, Keith laughed and said he

BIBLE TO RE TAUGHT IN
STATESVILLE SCHOOLS
Superintendent Thinks Education ia
Neglected Without Such Course of
Shijty.
Statesville, June 22.—Bible will be
taught in the Statesville high school
next year .according to Superintendent,
R. M. Gray, who yesterday made an
nouncement of completion of his faculty
and course of study for the city school!.
The course in Bible is to be elective and'
somewhat general, rather than intensive,,
embracing two years’ work. The first
year is to be devoted to Old Testament:
study, giving a historical background,
and the second year, to the Gospel, Acts
and a part of the Epistles. The Amer
ican Revised Bible will be, .used, . . In*
the elementary grades, it is the plan to
use Bible «tori<y< is supplementary work;
in place of certain other reading matter.
The instruction, of course, will be non
sectarian. Mr. IV. M. Boyce, of Due
West. S. C., who was a member of the
high school faculty here last year, will
be in charge of the Bible department
during the coming year.
Superintendent Gray Jfeeks that the
introduction of Bible study in the pub
lic schools will solve, in a large mea
sure, the growing lack of knowledge of.
the Scriptures existing among the com-:
ing generation, whose educational ad
vantages are limited by the course re-,
ceived in the public schools. In the'
educational scheme of the child. Air. 1
Gray is of the opinion that the Book of:
all books—which the late President Wil
son and other great educators kept by
their bedside when all other literature:
was discarded—should not be neglected.
