Slot Machines and Punchboards
The sheriff of Alamance County has been instructed j
to seize all slot machines in that county which may j
tie found after July Ist. v
That will be a tine thing for the |*ople up there,
but the slot machine |>eople will curse, because it will
keep them from gaining wealth bv an unfair method,
a way in which they take more than the> give.
The same enforcement should follow in Martin
County and should even go further. It should reach
the punchboard, the fortune whirl, and every other
device that does not give a uniform return for the
same investment. Any other method ft only a lot
tery. taking the money from many times
from children, who ho|»e for big returns, but who get
none These things have been tolerated until it is j
hard to get our minds above the gambling spirit,
Some Safe Bets 4
A Kansas editor has notice that when a man finds
fault with his local newspaper, the chances are ten to
one that he hasn't an advertisement i:• it; five to one
he never gave it job work: three to one he is delin
quent in his subscription; even money that he never
did anything to as«,ist the publisher to make it a good
paper, and forty to one that he is to get it

Cleafi Your Teeth
Clean your teeth is the advice given by the State
Board of Health. The Board has sutrh faith in this
advice that it treated and cleaned thejeeth of 33, 522
school children last year.
Proper care of tht teeth is said to prolong life by !
keeping away diseases of many kinds. J[t saves much
expense and produces much happier lives. The tooth j
ache patient is nevei happy; and bad teeth are cert
tain to produce diseases, many-of them deadly as well
as painful
If the 33,520 children treated get an extra year
each, it means a good contribution or gain from th j
cost of, treatmentv
Education
— — I
Governor William Berkley said more than 25
years ago that he hoped there would be no printir
press nor free schools in Virginia for a hundred yeai
His idea was thai educated masters could handle i
norant slaves easier than they could enlightened onj
We, today. find much of the same feeling, tij
some should hew wood, draw water, and ditch

need no education. There are some who feel that the
working claw should have sufficient education to sign
mortgages and read just a little, while a few have
the vision of a happier better people when all are
educated and able to do their own thinking and not lie
dependent on asy one for a guardian to think for them.
This can only come through universal education.
The next lsgislature of North Carolina is evident
centering its thoughts on this great question, and the
people showd back them in their undertaking to pro
cure an equitable and just tax on the wealth of the
State in jrder that the State's schools may tie better.
Because we can have no schools without cost.
Population Increase
Is > "W York right in estimating its population in
IQis l 21,000,000 people. Is the Columbia Uni
versitv expert right in his estimate that Detroit will
be lai er than New York, and what grounds have i
Cleve nd and Akron, Ohio, for predicting that the
100 ile space between them will soon be a solid
city, mnecling the two?
Tt question of where the folks are .to live in the
cumJg years is certainly important.
\\l have seen the country roll to the city for the j
pastpO years," drawn by the noisy hum and glare of |
the/ity lights. Now, all signs point to a change in I
thilk and within 50 years we exj>ect to see the poor
of me cities rushing to the country ftr bread and
brith, like rats from a sinking ship.
heretofore the city has been the country's customer
iitj the country has l>een the city's customer. Both
life overdone the thing and glutted the markets at
iJh ends. Machinery has doublet! the production
i.ihe city, and methods have doubled the production
oihe country.
I he only ho|#* is for the family to dig its existence
fin a small plot of ground, just as the people are
fied. to do in the densely populated countries of
liope. '• ;
the American ideal has been to make money. Ihe
nlessity of the future will call the people to a new
idil, that of making a living. The country will be
tj logical place.
Courses in Religion
{The University of North Carolina will include in
l' curriculum a course of instruction in the history
i ;1 literature of religion, the trustees having approved
resolution presented by the faculty suggesting this
dition to. the course of study. Students taking the
Hirse in religion will lie given credit for it on the
me basis as in other courses. A' committee to pro
de for the course has lieen named to report in the
11, and it is presumed that the course can be ren
ted available to students at the beginning of th?
rar.
For the last two ,years a school of religion has been
i.iintained at Chapel Hill with the Rev. M. I W ork
tai) in charge. Sfotjepls base taken courses in this
jchool, but were not given credit for, the work done
the University. The decision to give credit for
iuch courses is obviotisly an endorsement-of the work
he School of Religion has been doing.
The proposal is that the University have its own
>chool of religion and select its own instructors, who
would be res|x>i*sible tit the trustees and not to any
particular denomination. This would lift the history,
'literature, science and philosophy of religion out of the
rut of denominationalisni and elevate them to the
higher plane of cultural and informative subjects. Im
portant as religion is to the individual person, colleges
and universities have done little more than recognize
the fact of its existence.
Religion is usually touched upon incidentally in
college and university, not because higher educational
institutions do not appreciate the value of religion,
but rather because denominationali m and conflicting
views have well nigh rendered the teaching of religion" I *.
ini|M)ssible, A scientific and scholarly study of the
development of religion in general and of Christianity
in particular is of inestimable value to the student.
That such a study can be made by university students
seems to have been demonstrated by the school of re
ligion at the University of North Carolina.— Winston-
Salem Journal.

IN MEMORIAM
With loving remembrance _ of our
daughter add sister. Viola Nicholson-
Wynn, who got burned to death June
2 She was born February 12, 1911,
making her short stay on earth only
17 years, 3 months and some few days.
Slit leaves a father, mother, three sis
ters. five brothers, and a hroken-heart
e.d husband and a host of friends to
mourn her departure.
She budded on earth to bloom in
Heaven. Now all we can do is to bow
our heads in humble submission to
God's holy will and say thy will be
done not ours. Precious daughter,; sis
ter, and wife, how we'll miss you when
assembled as of yore, your loving voice
no more will greet us as we enter at
the door.
Fold her hands, now free from la
bor, across her breast: her work is
done; she'll rest through all the
ages with our Father and the Son.
Heavenly Father, guide those loved
ones that this girl has left behind.
Keep them ever with watchful, which
at all times is sublime We loved her.
yes we loved her, but Jesus loved her
more so he called her yonder to dwell
on Canaan's happy shore._
It was hard to stand beside her bed
side and see her suffer so; to know that
earthly help had failed and she must
shortly go. Prepare us. Lord, to meet
her. with loved mies gone before, that
we all,.may dwell together where par.-
ing comes no more.
Close the casket, tarewell, loved one:
sin V not lost just- gone before, where
wc hope some day to meet with the
Saviour at the throne. She is gone
I>ut in>t forgotten; never shall her mem
ory fade. SweeteM thoughts will ever
linger 'round the grave that's newly
made.
May the guod Lord blest, this poor
old father and mother with every need
ed blessing is my humble prayer.

THE HOUSEWIVES' BEST FRIEND
Friendship usually means going to unusual lengths to satisfy. And that is what the I'ender
Stores do. They offer the housewife clean stores, courteous, well trained managers, highest quality
foods and prices that must be considered economical even by the most thrifty. The fact that more
than 600,000 women shop at our stores each week is sufficient testimonial that we do offer a greater
amount of satisfaction and service than they could receive elsewhere.
