A Prayer For New Year's Day Open to me the gates of righteousnear; I will go in to them, and I will praise the I-ord?118:1V. Oar Heavenly Father we pease et the opening of this New Year's day te place ourselves in harmony with tlgr great plans. We know that it is mrwtse and sinful to oppose or at-' tentpt to hinder Thy purposes. Hear oar humble appeal for Divine wisdom, for spiritual sensitiveness to Thy messages, for broader views of our duty, and for the peace of God which fms the soul when working in full harmony with Thee. Let each of these blessings be given to nil whom we love. Incline them to stop and pray ?do watch and act, under the imaotses which come from Heaven. Make known Thy love and law to all people in all lands, and hasten the era when all mankind shall accept - the teachings of Thy San, and of the Holy Prophets, and thus in sincere ' agreement live in peace with all, and in full obedience and devotion to Thy Holy Will. We ask these great blessings in the Name of our Lord J^sus, Thy Son, and our Redeemer. Amen. Dr. Kussel H." Conwell. <NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS Tomorrow we face another New Year, let us each make some New Year resolutions. We have great reaped for the man, or woman, who makes' it a habit to make new resolutions on this day, even if ihey "are mastly all broken before the day is gone, for the man who wants to be batter is at least showing the proper spirit. Among the many good resolutions we all. might make we would like to mention just one?that we will all have respect for our Laws, ana ttsyivc inHi we Wl|l not KHOW*ngly break one .of them during the coming year. We prate about, the boys and girls of today and wonder what is going to become of this old world, without once thinking about the examples we are setting them. We tell them to do thus and so, for instance on Sunday morning we tell J them to get ready, and go to Sunday! School and preaching, when we I .should take them by the hand and say, "Come on." Every night every j father or mother?that is if they are! really fathers and mothers, tell them to knee! and say their prayers I hot how many of the children have ever seen dad down on his knees offering up a prayer to the All Wise Heavenly Father. *The future generation is going to $?. he just what we make the hoys and girla today, and what we make of them depends largely upon the examples we set for them. So, withi these few words for the parents to think about we say good-by to the Old Year and pray .God to iruide and direct us during the New. The Greensboro Daily News has See* so much and so well congratulated of late on joining the ranks of the faomc-owners that any further expression would be trite. We note -that a profuse abundance of flowers basse been seat to the hmjae-warrpiag by well-wishers and friends. N'gw itowero. as a rule, indicate either a siding or a funeral; and since the *$9rs is a very, very long way from being dead, or even dormant, we take it that the occasion signifies the wedding of the News with, a Near Year ?f continued growth, useful service ang well merited success.

CLUB WOMEN LEARN JOYS OF CAMPING Forget Cooking, Home Cares and Everything Else For Three Day Outing v "I would not have believed; it if I had not seen it," was one newspaper man's comment when he saw fifty or mort* country mothers playing like girls at- a three-day encamp ment for hfQiPe demonstration club women jn Craven County.. "Why," said one cheerful little mother, "it's the firet real holiday I have had in the twenty years I have been married. TTiere was always the children, the cooking, or something to rise up and smite me if I thought of going off for a vacation. If the home agent had not persuaded me that I would be a "much more valuable person in my family if I got away and brushed wits with other women, I think I would * still be letting family cares fill my world and would have missed all the fun of our glorious threeday camp. I did not think it was in rnfc to romp and to play those foolish ^ganies, but I have certainly enjoyed them." Fifty farm women, bunking to gether in scantily famished rooms, talking and laughing like girls until lights were out, fifty unaccustomed women getting dressed in the early morning and going through settingup exercise, fifty hungry women eating with hearty appetites the! camp breakfast they did not have to prepare for thehiselvcsi and! fifi^yhappy women planning fun for the day was p. sight to warm the heart end fill the eyes. At the camp in Rockingham County the campers invited those fun] makers, the Rotarians and Klwania'nsl to cat Brunswick stew with them one evening, and when experiences and stories were told over the carh.pl I fire, it was not those farm women who took a hack seat in the telling. I j- It is the rule to have the mother' I leave the children at heme, if possible, when she enmes to camp, thatl she may have a real rest from reI sjocnsibility. but *in one case this cc.uld not be managed, and three j liUle tot*; came with mother. Every-, | body lent a helping hand, and there were tears in that piother's cheek?[ when she told the agent what the I three days of companionship with other women had meant to her. 1 Mrs. Pete Wilson, an effthusiastic camper of Rockingham County, said when the home demonstration council met to discuKH the camp, "I believe the camp should be made compulemry for every farm woman. fThen we could forget the hardships and drudgery and find our home _tasks ;ind our lives- more worth while when we got hack." If mothers are to be able to go to camp and to get the best out of a holiday it will be necessary to plan tcr a mothers' week when all the house duties, the care of the children. u vira iuu^>MunniMU{) wtui mvurr will be nndertaken by the daughters of the family. UIf every club yirl makes up her mind that ebe will rmbstitute at leas* three days for mother, or for some one else's mother If sfee has not one of her own, ind wifiL,d? it understandingly, we aro promo to. find the eon shining in many a dreary life in North Carolina, and a rejuvenation of many a prematurely aged woman who never before hrd the opportunity of expressing that lpve of fun that is locked up somewhere within her.?Jane 8.

God saw fit ' to take our dear brother and neigh-bor, Mr. Z .T. Gentry, from us. Why our dear brother had to suffer so long is not for us to know. His place in our church and community can not be filled. A more faithful superintendent, deacon and Sunday | School teacher can not be had; he was always there and ready to do everything for the upbuilding of the kingdom of God. We, as members of Mill Creek church, and neighbors scant to first express our gratitude for the beautiful life an Brother Gentry, and we wish to eiftfesa our deep sympathy to' the loved ones in this dark hour. His memory will linger withiiua for years to come. Whereas, Our church and community has lost one of the most helpful members and neighbors, and Whereas, We'would like to shew appreciation for his loyal work and inspiration his life has given us, be it resolved, 1st; That we bow in humble sub-' mfiasion to the will of God "Who doeth all things well." 2nd: .That in his noble spirit of service ne nas pavea trie wny we shall try to follow.' # 3rd: That we extend to the sorrowing loved ones our deepest sympathy and commend them to our Lord, whom he loved and trusted. 4th: That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Biblical Recorder, a copy to The Roxboro Courier and a copy be spread upon the minutes of the church, and a copy sent to the family. Oh! the friepds that now are waiting, In the cloiidless realms of day. Who are calling us to follow. Where their steps have led the way.
