WHY DO MEN SHAKE
HANDS AS GREETING
When a man offffers his right hand j
to an acquaintance he ia unconscious- j
ly imitating the cavalier of the mid- ;
die nge% who held out an unarmed j
hand as token that his sword was ;
sheathed and that he was friend and :
not enemy; and when he removes his j
glove to shake a lady's hand he is j
again the kr.ight of old, who would :
never offer a lady a gauntleted hand. J
A knight, whn: he eniaed a castle j
hall, always dofTed his helmet, the.
most vital part of his armor, as evi- j
dence to his host that he came in
peace, just as the man of today would |
nev?y dream of entering a Hrawing .
room with his hat on ; and just as ,
the medieval baron would raise his
hand to his helmet, as an indication
that he was ready to unhelm out of |
politeness, his descendent of today I
touches or raises his hat.
At our meals we are similarly link- !
ed with the long-gone past the knife
we use is the successor of the dagger
or hunting knife with which our an
cestors of long centuries ago cut up ;
I their food ; our finger bowls had their j
origin in the days when fingers were j
used to convey food to the mouth ; wo j
owe the fork to the enormous ruffs '
which at last made it difficult to j
reach the mouth with the fingers and
made a substitute necessary ; and the '
paper frills which adorn cutlets, i
hams, and so on, were originally used .
to obviate soiling the fingers by hand- j
ling the joints or portions.

IN MEMORY OF MRS. R. L.
HOGSED
By MRS. T. P. GALLOWAY
I have waited hoping that a mora
gifted peri Jhan mine would pay a
i tribute to the beautiful life and
| Christian character of this dear
I friend of mine. But so far I have
: only seen a short account of her
j death and burial.
j Words cannot express the bitter
tense cf pain and loss that I feel pcr
tonally at her passing. But her death
was not only a I033 to her family and
friends. But to her church and the
community at large, for she was
friend alike to the high and the low
and Had the same cheerful smile
and word of greeting for the humb
lest man or woman with whom she
came in contact that she had for
those in the higher .stations of lif
The poor and needy were never turn
ed away from her door empty hand
ed, but. were *ed and clothed and sent
on their way with new courage. She
was a great Christian worker, and (
, seemed always happiest when she
was engaged ir tb ework of the
church. She was president of the W.
M. U. from its organization and
| taught for years, a class of young
ladies in the Sunday school. Always j
i present when it was at all possible
for her to be.
We still seem to feel her presence
in the church she loved so well. Her
home and her church shall know her
j no more. But we shall treasure al
ways the happy hours spent with
her and the privilege of having
known her and the "wonder of having
.loved her, will cast its radiance down
through the yeare for the fine qual
ities and the lofty ideals which she
had. The love and devotion that she
gave to the cause of Christ are things
that will not die but live on and on.
And may we build on the foundation
that she has helped to lay, a finer
and richer Christian fellowship. We
know that death is the golden key
that unlocks the gates of eternity j
and "that in our Fathers House as% ?
many many Mansions" and we be- j
licve she is there with Him.
The period of life is brief;
i 1 the red of the red rose leaf
Tis the flight of the bird on high, j
Ti* the gold of the sunset sky,
Yet one may so fill that space
With such infinite graco
That the rose will be red all the time,i
And the gold through the ages shine,
And the bird fly swift and straight
To thi portals of God's own gate.
Raleigh, Oct. 5. ? Preparations are j
being made this year for the largest J
crowds in history at the North Caro

10-15. A group of boosters recently
traveled 600 miles through Eastern
North Carolina and contacted more
than 25,000 people, giving each an
invitation to the exposition, which

MODERATE WINTER
PROMISED COUNTRY
(SooiesviJle Enterprise)
The chief of the agricultural sec
tion of the United States Weathef
Bureau ia out with' a statement that
ought to cause a lot of joy for thos;
who dread the winter months. Re
says that as a result o i the upward
swing of the thermometer since
1926, and other observations, the
country is in all probability to have
a mild winter.
He also says that records show the
weather moves in currents of a few
cold years. In the past, a change from
one cycle to another has come grad
ually and while not forecasting posi
tively a mild winter, he says indica
tions point that way ar.d that there
is no evidence yet that a change to
abnormal temperatures has begun
The present upward trend in temp
erature really began after the hard
winter of 1918, he asserts. Since then
abnormal weather has been dominant,
with the trend particularly noticeable
since the winter of 1926.
Every month this year except
March has brought fcmperatarea
ranging above the SC-ysar menu av
erage. Only New England, southern
California and a small area o;i the
north Pacific coast hare h&d sub- ?
normal weather during the part sum
mer. This, says the weathr-r chief, is
taken by weather experts as another
reason for believing that a mild win
ter is ahead of us. All of which i?
certain to be received as cheering
news by those who, along about this
time of year, begin to look toward
winter's arrival with more or lefs
dread.
WINTER FARMS AS I) GARDENS

Most every week we have called to
the attention of our readers the nec

And there are many farmers in this
garden all during the winter. There
should be more winter farming in
this county. Many of the grain crops
will grow in this county ana have
as much value as the summer crops.
And most of these winter crops will
grow without cultivation. We need
more oats, wheat, rye and barley.

When the Leaves
Begin to Fall.
Then the Fires begin to rage, and ere one knows it, all
that one "has worked for and saved up in a lifetime is
reduced to ashes, and Despair, bitter, dark despair
comes to that one.
"Fully Protected by Insurance"
Is the only SAFE way, and, we may add, the only SEN
SIBLE way to meet a situation. Falling leaves in the
Autumn provide the tinder for the sparks that go up
through chimneys unused for months, hence the greater
liability of fire risk during these first weeks and months
of the changing seasons.
