cins» matter.
iue must important phase oi eu u
cauou being advanced in our biuic to
uay u X* or Hi Carolina liural Lile. ivi
many years there hi> been a wide
bread! between the view point oi tin
city and the rural citizen, ill laci
in some cases or instances, it hixt
readied the point tnat the care oi one
lor the other has g; really diminished.
Tne tilings wo study and the things
we think will make ail men oi ail sta
tions see tilings in tne light oi th.
truth, il tiiose studies arc on the high
plain oi unseiiishness and one common
nation and country ior all of us.
The rural districts is the base oi
wealth ior the world. It is the cold
waters far beyond the Grand Banks
that makes the rich New .Lugland
fisheries. It is the cans l'ields and
swamp rushes oi the Orient that make
the big trade on hundreds oi valuable
articles that are manuiactured and
used in our great centers.
Our great sugar industries have
been builded on the product most
lurgcly raised by what we call interi
or rural people. And regardless oi
what we may think oi these thing*
it seems to have been especially de
signed that w eshould hav to be de
pendent upon those that we are in
clined to call the weak.
The Department of Kural Life at
our own State College under the di
rection of Dr. Carl C. Taylor is under
taking the task of developing rural
hvifig and training until liie Jii that
sphere wil prod-.ee as many smiles ..s
the liic among the wealthy and leis
ure classes. Y\ hen tlui great task is
accomplished and every citizen oi
North Carolina is made to feel that
lie is a part of the great build- j
ing oi North Carolina's piogness,
moral and soend development then
will .North Carolina oe the greatest
and grandest old State in the world.
A study oi rural life wil make most
01 us think more oi the other fellow
an less f ourselves when we see the
spirit oi toilers as they endure all
kinds ol' hardships and privations.
When we see their souls laid bare \v
find there love, sympathy ai d kind
ness and are usually more ready to
(sacrifice their possessions and them
selves for a neighbor's needs than the
more wealthy and high up.
Instead of the great greed for mon
ey. there should be a greater demand
"by* the people for culture atid for the
care of the weaker class. The creation
of wealth and the making of money
has be.'ri badly overworked in the last

HOME ,
(By Edgar A. Guest) m
Home ain't a place that gold can buy
• r get up Li a minute;
Afore it's home there's got t' l>e a
heap of 'living in it;
Within the walb there's ;;ot t' be
some babies bom, and then
Itight there ye've got t' bring 'am up
'women good, and men;
And gradjerly, as time goes on, yc
find ye wouldn't part
With anything they ever used —
they've grown into yer heart;
The old high chairs, the playthings,
too, the little shoes they wore
Ye hoard; an* if ye could ye'd keep
tine thumb marks on the door.
Ye've got t' weep t' make it home,
ye've got t' sit and sight,
And watch beside a loved one's bed,
and know that Death is night;
An' in the stillness o' the night t' see
Death's angel com,
An.'s close the eyes o' her that smiled,
an leave her sweet voice dumb.
Fer these are scenes that grip the
heart and when yer tears are died,
Ye find the home is dearer than it
* was, an' sanctified;
An' tugging at ye always are the pea
sant memories
()' her that was an' t« no more—ye
can't escape froti tie,
Ye've got t' sing en' dance fer years,
ye've cot t' romp and play,
An' leam,,t' love the things yc hav?
by using em each day;
Even the roses 'round the porch must
blossom year by year
Afore they 'come apart o' ye sug
gestin' someone dear
Who used t' love 'em long an'
trained 'em jest' t' run,,
The way they do, so's they would get
the early morning sun;
Ye've got t' love each brick an' stone
•from cellar up to dome:
It takes, a heap o' living in a house
t T make it home. —————

Help jfou Choose Tires'
500 rnilw at 94.48 mile* an hour— a relentless &rind
over a rough-finished, sun-baked concrete and brick
pavement at record-breaking speed—that Is the gruelling
test Oldfleld Cord Tires underwent successfully at Indian
apolis Speedway May 30th. They were on the winner's
car for the third successive year and on eight of the ten
finishing in the money, upholding the confidence success
ful race drivers have in the trustworthiness dUd ability of
these tires to meet the greatest demands of speed, endur
ance and safety. Their records in every other important
race have been equally as good.
Consider this achievement "along with another test of Oldfield
quality made at Wichita, Kahsai, this past winter and early .
Al * ! spring. , y t
j 34,526 mile* on rutted, icy Kansas roads, running day
and night on a Studebaker stock car without a single tire
change. This test was made by a group of Wichita auto
motive dealers in a tire, oil and gbsofine economy run.
Mayor Kemp of Wlchfta was official observer and made
affidavit to the mileage and service given by Oldfleld tire*.
You may never subject Vour tires to the gruelling experience
of Indianapolis nor the steady grind of bad winter roads, but it
Is good to know you can get such safety and mileage economy
by buying Oldfield tires. ASK year nearest dealer. _ v
