ID CROSS HEALS IBIINDS OF WAR 26,000 Disabled Ex-Service Men & In Hospitals After Four Years of Peaoe. FIELD OF SERVICI Every Veteran Needing Help Gets Individual Attention of Sym: pathetic Worker^*^ | When on November 11 the world halts to observe the fourth snnlver *ry of Armistice Day, and the Ameri can Red Cross Inaugurates tts Annual .Roll Call for the enrollment of the 1023 membership, the people of the t United States may well pause to think ef the unparalleled contribution to the eause of peace made by our Army and Navy In the World War. The glory of It Is a common tradition; but the wounds of war remain. They are not headed la a day, In a year, nor In four years. And on Armistice Day there Will be under treatment In Government hoapltals over 25,000 e>-service men, broken physically by wounds, expo eure, nervous strain and exhaustion incident to their service in the war. The Government. without stint Is ua dertuklng to furnish tihfcae disabled men with the compensation and med ical care to which they are entitled, yet their especial, care Is a duty of the Red Cross. Why? Because the Gov ernment cannot handle the cases of fX-servlce men Individually; It must handle these pien In bulk under a Standardized policy. The Government has neither the authority, the funds or the equipment for working out the problem of the Individual man. There Is where the American Ked Cross finds Its greatest field for service, aid ing through Its very active Chajnerg Ip reaching the disabled man with Im mediate practical help, assisting hip family while his claim Is emerging from the psocfKis of (tdjustment, furnishing article* of comfort, fupda to tide over (he difficult periods, the friendly touch" Of personal encouragement, helpful recreation mid worry-dispelling amuse* meut. It Is the'warm hand of sym pathy- and understanding which the American lied Cross extends to the majority of these disabled ex service men, soma of them friendless In the whirl of life,- thousands of them with wives and children dependent upon them, and hundrejs of them, frequent ly helpless lu the face of grim ne cessity. 1,679 Chapters Aiding Veterans In this work, upon whose accom plishment the American Red Cross la urging n record-breaking enrollment In the Roll Call which opens on Armis tice Day and. closes with Thanksgiv ing Pay, 2,079 Chapters In all parts of the country are engaged.

THE ENTBRPRISE WHY I DESIRE TO ATTEND A CHURCH COLLEGE j Since this is my senior year in High School, I realize it is now time 1 for me to decide wether to make good in life or not, so 1 have m:»de up my mind to go to college. The most interesting subject for me since I have decided, is whether I shall attend a church school or a stat& school. I think I have about come to the conclusion that it is best for me to attend h church school. In the first place the pupil re- J eeives more individual attention. !sor instance, while at a recitation,' if thero( is a large class, a pupil will probably not get one question a week, because there are so many to get around to, and at the end of the month the pupil will not be preparid to takd the examinations.' They have 'ho studied as they would Lis* • if they had had a question every day. This is the case in a state col lege, while in a church college it is quite' the other way, because there •? * i are not so many pupils. Therefore, they stand a better showing. i In the next place, you will re ceive more religious developments, which means moid to the world than any other thing. **lt is a fact that education an education which simply crnnu the head with information and i never touches the spring of life and conduct, may easily do more harm than good." Herbert Spencer said:' •'To educate tlui reason without edu- ' •ating the desire is like placing the icpcating rifle in the hands (if a sav age." ell was right, If a man ha* ticioua motives and we give him in ..dditio i a trained mind, we thereby enable him (he more effectively to * ttrry his vicious motives into exe cution to the detriment of the world. In a church college thetre ure more religious organization* in which the t-upils have a chance to lead. It is Irue that there' are some of these or ganization* in the state schools, but there are so many pupils, thai thtry all do not have a chance. At a church school pupils are required to lake a course in Bible study, which is the greatest study in the world, while at a stae school they do not re quiru it in all degrees. They also require the pupils to go to church and Sunday School every Sunday, In a church college the pupils are taken cere of better. That is, they! are chaperoned better and are not allowed to do as they like, and that goes a long way, for "Tfye world places more value ppqn the moral character than mere mental laimen. Thci woflcj needs jt mure. It pays to be a leader of men, *nd iot a trailer of (he crowd." "The chuich college goes on the theory that w« scul of education is thti edufcatlioßßf tfie, sotil." ~ "4, >fvVra People calim that the stati an* '' leges 'htvc better teachers. Th ey L may have in spme instances as fur as education Is but it Is not so, as far as religion is concern ed. But anys/ay, church schools now have professt re of the highest type. Some of thi State Colleges have teachers thatN-rhr not belong to a church and soma even believe there is no God. Who wants their boy or girl to go to a teacher who believes there is no Cod? Nqbody could, it seems to me, who has read the prin ciples of success aright. "No institutions in the world, do better work from a purely education al standpoint, and none are more loyal to the fundamental principles of our religious faith. In their walls the future leadership of the South Is being largely developed. You should by all means be among those who ore receiving the benefits of their service," a Thus we see that church schools, though small, have many advantages and should be patronized by us.— (By Helms Johnson, Oak City High School.)

Here's the old world going around oil - its axis, with human beings all trying, ((or thinking they are), to put ahead the game! of progress and enough production to give everybody n good living with a place for most of them to do their share, so that co operation will produce the greatest happiness for all. Your share is your job. And you're the only ond who has your job Logically—certainly, in fact—if you don't do it, some one else must; or it must go undone and the game held up. It'a just as if you were on the baseball team but didn't' show up, and th-> team had to play with eight What would you think of that? Or of you? Then here's another though; if you don't your job as well as it can be done, or ae well as you ran ilo it, or don't cooperate with tJit other fellow, everybody connected I'onnccted with prouction suffeirs, — for after all, joach one of us is de pendent upon [the man below or a hove. * It's just like being out in the Held >lll u baseball nine uiut inutYing a lly with the score titld in the niiith, two •ut and three men on bases. It doesn't seem that way to you lieeituse you can't eee the results that follow as you can In a baseball jjuni'c. Then, herd's still another point of v ew: your Jub is the best job you've .K >t. You may get another and a better one. The future holds what you can make It hold. But, right (.now yjur job is held by no other peiison in the world, and it's the bd!t job you ve got. That ought to (five you pause. Well, what are you going to do a bout it? Think It over! And do it, —Strathmorean, SUPERINTENDENTS OF PUBLIC WELFARE AND SCHOOL AT TKNDANCE In enforcement of the compulsory attendance law in North Carolina, (J me cooperation between the agents of the Boards of Public Welfare and Kducation is necessary.
