BENEFITS OF A COLLEGE EDU TION FAR REACHING in EFFECTS ' I (From an article by .P. Hobgood, I President of Oxford College, in tht> *f Orphan's Friend.)» f In this wonderful day of education al awakening in our state as thorugh out the world, when money is pom out like water by state, churches an individuals for educational purp bos let us take courage and note sonv changes that should be made Our long lists of elective studie; subject the student to a temptatioi that fe«r of them can resist, of chxos ing the easiest course that leads to a degree—the line of least resistance Our good old friends of our boy ho i' Caeaar and Cicero and gcod Vir 1 • Zenophon and Herodotus are depased from the high place they have o.ca pied for the centuries. A distinct loss to the world: In one of iw oClleges if 500 students u.l> 37 took Lutin last year and, in a great University of 1,500 students only a bout 20 took Greek. The effort great ly to be commended to relate educa tion to the needs of the people is go ing a little too far. It is time the pendulum is swinging back. We need for world leaders of thought trained minds gained through years of hard, diligent toil. Fortunately the colleges are now of fering a number of courses all head.iiK to the same degree—not particular subjects. These courses wisely arrang ed and insisted upon will prevent mauy a student from making a wreck of his educational opportunities. I wonder whether we stop long e no ugh to consider what a valuable pos session a college education is. Let me call attention to two or three ad vantages it gives. First and fore-, most, it puts us in possession of our language, which for nice distinction and its capacity to express high spii; itual truths, and for copiousness hat never-been surpassed if equalled. But how few of thoe whose vernacular it is nave the slightest acquaintance with It, speaking only four to five hundred words of the thousands of wards in, the dictionary. Through this language edticutior outs us in possession of our rich lit erature just as the radio phone, that wonder of wonders, catches the swoet founds floating through the ether in cs>ith, air and water, and 'nukes them sound audible to listening thous and*. So language enables u« to'con v4ae with the wise and good of past ages, to know their thoughts end e.- pcrie-ices as they grappled wit.i ih problems that confront us. This education fits for greater ser vice. This, after all, warrants me states and Christian bodies and pri vate individuals to lay down mill ms for U support—to erect great edu cational plants, to equip with costly apparatus ami to em poly the best tal ent for instruction. College men have ruled the wor dland in conjunction with woman will continue to rule it. How could it be otherwise that mind* trained either in college or out of college shall serve the world? Our Presdents from Harding back to Lin coln, our U. S. Supreme Court judges, our Superior Court judges, our Gov ernors, our U. S. Senators, our mem ben of the House of Representatives and our state officers, have, with but few exceptions, been college men. 1 How important it is, therefore, that those who are to guide the affairs o state and church should be educates under distinctively Christian influ eoces, by men and women of positlv Christian faith, holding to the goo ! old ways of the fathers. p i» world needs as never beftw ebe services of her best aorur and daughters—their strenous endeavor.' to rehabiliate our civilisation, to tave it from lapsing into barbarism. World conferences meet to consde the means of bring peaee, permanrn I peace and at once selfishness, befor. thef blood on the battlefield is dry wrecks all well laid plans There ii one hope and only one, the religion our Lord Jeeus Christ In the hearts o! rulers. , Our Christian homes, presided ore by Christian women, are to be eu stay and support in these troublou times and in those that may be ahead of us.

I Farmers Express Satisfaction With Advances Made By The Co-Op Association Thursday The Tobacco Growers Association opened its warehouses in Eastern Carolina Thursday. Mr. H. L. Meador, manager of the Co'op's house here had everything in readiness. Mr. Luther G. Leggett was the first farmer to drive in with i load of tobacco, tire same being raised in part on his own land and pari on the land of Mr. George S. Mjore in Popular Point township. A large crowd gathered to wUny the opening. The grader stood in middle of the floor and the tobacci. was brought to him, examined ami then had the grade marked or. it Then it was taken to the scales an weighed. From the scales it was taken and placedwith its kindred grades and the fanner was paid his advance mor ey. - * There weje 6,758 pounds received in the association with an advanced average of $7.05 per hundrod which is supposed to be about 33 1-2 per cent of the present selling price. There seems to have been general satisfaction so far as we could leant. "DO YOU WANT YOUR DAUCH TER TO MARRY A FARMER" Sixty-one out of sixty-four North Carolina farm women answer "yes' and they back up their answers \\itf, some perfectly good reasons. The;, do not think oi» themselves us poor, hard working drudges, lonely and isolated and with no social life to break the monotony of their erxist ence—on tire contrary they seem t.i be perfectly well satisfied ami contented with their lot as farmer*' wives They find joy, happiness i.n 1 .contentment on the farm and in the homes and have such hope in the fu ture that they want their daughters to become farmers'a wives. Some of the most important rea sflns for this are: good health c i tions, the ever-ready supply of good Wholesome food such as fresh vege table, butter, milk, chickens and eggs gee, 1 believe I'll move to the furin) the balanced physical and mental growth that cuuues from living close to uuture and seeing the beauties oi His handiwork, the clese business par nershlp between husband and wife arte, the friendly discussion of all business problems. Modern home conveniences such a* running water, electric light and pow- * era for washing; consolidated rural schools, papers anil magazines, home demonstration work, automobiles . good roads,, all these and more j hand in hand toward making life on the farm worth living. With a hope for the future and With 1 a vision of what rural life can n come rather than what it is today these farm women expressed a beiit, that the time would soon come when the country women would have all ai- 1 vantages now possible to the city wo- 1 men and in addition to these the many comforts and pleasures that come only to thoso living in the country as far mers' wives.

North Carolina, Friday, August 25th, 1922 Many farmers said the amount 4 > - vanced was as much on certain grade.-; as actual prices received on the auc tion floors. Every one agreed that the cooper ative system was the most wens method of handling tobacco that the/ had ever seen. " . Mr F. W.

CAMPAIGN TO END MAL NUTRITION OF CHILDREN As soon as the school open ihis fall ti'.e. North Carolina Tuberculoma Association will begin an intensive campaign in a few selected "oiiaties in io;peiation with the Slate i 5 i»rd i C L'eiath to bring the malncurisS.ed chiKirt-n up to pur. From a few surveys that have been vnducted by the Association, anil also by the United States Public Health Service in North Carolina, it has been found that fully thirty per cent of the school children are under weight for their age and height. The percentage of underweights being a little larger among the white child ret than among the colored. It has been demonstrated that the five chief causes of malnutrition nam ed in the order of thier importance are:- physical defects and disease, Jack of home control, over-fatigue, improper diet and faulty heatlh habits It will be readily seen from this list of causes that a campaign that does not enlist the cooperation cf parents and teachers will be only successfu in a minor degree. The Association is putting forth a strong appeal t those with children in order that th program may be carried out success fully. Arrangements will be made t give proper trei#ment to those whr are handicapped by physical defect and disease. By far the large ma.i ty of these defects are in connection with tonsils and adenoids and the State Board of Health is already diligently at work correcting these conditions. The children who are below pat from causes other than physical de fects will be enrolled in the Nutrition Crusade which will be conducted un der the direction of capable doctors and nurses. The children will be weighed regu larly once each week and their pro gress charted on prepared forms. Children who are not making satis factory improvement will be given special instruction in tlie presence of parents. An effort will he made to establish a rest period of twenty to thirty minu ets at midday for all undernourished children. The Association has aln> authorized the use of fiends derived from the sale of Tuberculosis Christ mas seals for the purchase of mill to be served during the rest period. Dr. K. P. B. Bonner, director of the Bureau of Maternity and Infant Hy giene will inaugurate the Nutrition Crusade in Harnett county as soon as the schools open. Dr. L, B. Mcßraycr, managing director of the Nort' Carolina Tuberculosis Association, will direct the work in Buncombe county. Work in other counties v be instituted as rapidly as possible. ,'ANDY RM ;C.

T. H. Donnelly, t. THE GREAT GAME OF 50-50 Too many of us forget tha this world is not specifically designed to serve the purposes of We, Us nnd Co. It is a 50-50 proposition in which all are entitled to dividends, so far as the basic, fundamental rights are con cerned. This has given rise to mis conceptions of the "All men are born free and equal" dogma. Existence and the right to enjoy it happily and decently is a heritage common to all human beings, the intelligentzia hav ing no preeminence in this particular over the hoodlumentizia. The man who scornfully waves away the rights of all who do not "belong," according to his pet standards, has no rational basis for his Podsnappery dismissal of those rights. However mean and common and onery a man may bo- his fundamental rights are unimpaired. There is a preponderance of evidence to the effect that he exists for the very purpose of eradicating whatever of evil there is in him—and of course to serve the general purpose of his Creator. To deny him this right is a crime of the darkest hue. However, this fact of fundamental right has led to extreme views, too. Because of it one does not have to compromise with the lowly condition of a man except to grant him his op portunity to change it. A bum should have the privilege of aiming at an> vantage point in life in an open field but he has no right to fftrce himself to dinner on any person who does not want him. The diamond in th rough business has been overworked —sadly so. Often when the bottiir, rail gets on top it wants to not on supplant the top one but }o Jjgat up as well. The truth is the most'of us wan to enjoy the privileges of democracy and inflict the penalties of autocracy But it won't work. Existence is 50-50 business. Whether it is a quas tion of rich man, poor man, begga man or thief, the foil killer will get all sooner or later who do not ac cept Nature's first Article of Faith But no matter how bad a lot tmay be that of any man, if he will accept ami do his best to abide by such article, when the final roll is called he will b( | found included on the list of winner —Orphan's Friend.

WHAT FASHIoft.DOES One of the leading merchants oi the town is-now selling shoes at.sl.2i> per pair thrft -cost him $9.50 per jiai> wholesale. They ale fine in nuiluS nmT material and will wear well. Stylo anil fashion is alt the trouble with them. They are the high heel brand that women'went frantfc over just a short while Now they have found out how foolish they were anil don't only refuse tq buy them at a reduction of six hundred and thirty-five pei cent, but seem to refuse to wear them at any price. Most styles are brought out by the manufacturers. They make certain patterns for one season and supply the country, after which they begin to make designes for the noxt season, rendering all goods on hand obsolete, and all clothing such as shoes hats and other wearing apparel are thrown aside. And the rfctail merchant has to get a full liYie and supply of new style goods ahd those articles cat rietl over are practically lost and tin public discards and lays aside their apparel of the previous seasonw fre quently worn but little and would be of .much uso .if the style had not left it. It wuld be the sensible thing from more than one standpoint if the country would refuse to buy the. manufacturers new styles and stick to a few sensible things for a few sea ons in succession. FLAPPERS ARK KILLING ROMANCE SHE DECLARES MEN REMAIN SINGLE London, Aug. 22.—(8y I- N. S.) — Modern women is driving man into celibacy. This startling and sen sational indictment agafnst thi wo men of the "flapper age" was . made by Francis Ilenry Gribble, critic ah.) novelist and one of the best known publicists in (ireut Britain. Modern woman, according to Mr Gribble, is robbed of her mystery, and therefore the deaire of man t ! mftrry her lessened. "There is no question that the mystery in which women used to l« wrapped with a romatic asset afii a provocative challenge which some times led men to' propose marriagi to—women wham.., thev. certainly would not have wi*hed to niaiT they had known them better." aaii Mr. Gribble. "Emancipation of women does not merely mean that chaperones have Ijeen discarded as obsolete. "That, perhaps, was all that meant at first but it has gradually come to mean, in many cases i freedom of manner and a idxity of morals so pronounced that the clerg; of all degrees and denomination have been moved to protest And that sort of thing, little as the wo men who laugh at these protest* ma\ auspect it, has a distinct bearing upon their prospects of marriage. "And for obvious reasons. Th' seriously domesticated man will no* have for his wife the type of - who has made too free with the con vention® in her 'desire to live.' She haa set tongues wagging by her i' discretionn—and no man 'likes hi wife to be the subject of such gos aippy recollections. "The other type of man, who • i frankly cyncial, considers that mar riage has little 'but responsibilitie to offer, and therefore remains single The practical result Is that jnnny men who might otherwise marry young to gratify their desire for what Gibbon called 'a domestic fe leale companion now postpone mar riage and are content to pursue romatic adventures with the at traetively unconventional girla of to dai" I If # ¥0« QUICK I • RESULT*-USB- A WANT I .
