HI I art,« making them go to school I Mow Um Of Thought Seat Oat aa a Thread-Bare Subject. la a recast 1mm of tha Surrey lhare to a notably sensible article by Htoa Etta M. Hall, at Troy, N. Y, ■a tha conditioo of children in North Caroltoa mills. Seeing the place treaa which the writer hailed, we ex acted to Sad tha uni aid alory of pala children breathing linty air and compallad la teerier years to support! worthless sad b ratal fathers; and ofl task-master* who drove these Httiel children treat early morning until Sewey eve, and all that rot so famil-! iar to our ears that cornea from ttrangsis whs magnify tha bad sad suppress tha good they see in our1 ootton mttl renditions But to our ■uprise we found the snide to be aa lateUlgeat discussion of facts, and filled with a spirit sad understanding of the difficult situation that coo pts us. Instead of laws prohibit ing child labor and doing nothing more, Mias Hell pleads for lews that win compel the child to go to school. Hers is the conclusion of the excel lent article which gives so idea of the whole of its -l appreciate the dififculties of North Carolina's posi tion with two school systems to be I supported end the sentiments of so1 large a percentage of illiterate voters to hamper legislation. My heart is " North Carolina snd her citiieaa, both of advantage and disadvantage, and I feel that what she need* as | wall as other southsra States is not help to keep bar children from work 's* bat help to task* them go to school more." Now there is good ■ease for you. A great deni too much has been said about the slavery of childhood in cotton mill, and tha light labor they perform . la these mills sad entirely too little about pvlng Umm children the benefit of •d«»tion. It is not work, tho chil dren do in the milta that constitutes the menace lo society, hat the fact that they are growing up In Igno rance. Glee them education and the labor problem* will take care of thorn aaleee. And it la the duty of tha Stats aot simply to provide moans for those children for an education but to compel them to avail them selves of those moans. This Is th* heart sad cor* of the situation, «»«i this is exactly what we need in North Carolina. All honor to tha cotton ■HI man who have spent money to provide schools at their factorise; now tha State’s duty comas la which is not to taka tha children out of the tttary and Isa them grow up ‘■J'djs^ssjA botto pad them In tha pa^him la JoiL—Charity. and.

A great number of Mr. Mashbom'e rel atives and friends were present es timated at from one to two hundred, lo congratulate turn upon hit longev ity and to wish for him man?, more ysara at happiness. Mr. Msshbum waa bom in Onslow county, but about his 19th yeer he moved to tho county of which ho is ■ow an inhabitant whar* ha her lived •ince.

Tha reason for this la that mere physical labor carriee so meny ponada or does so much physical work In a certain per iod of time, whOe tha mental laborer accomplishes rowuhj according to bit alertness, judgement Mad ioreelffet. CoL Goethala, In planning aad sup erintending the work of tha Panama Canal, could probably devise earns scheme in an boor that would save the labor of a thousand man per day, and that single act would save a mil lion dollars In building the canaL What la tha value of such aa hour*! work? Thomas A. Edison has mads inventions that have saved the world billions of dollars. Day laborers have helped to put his ideas togeth or after they were tortaulated, but they would be nsslaaa without Edi son's ideas to work oa. What Is th* value of a day's time of such a man? The application can be brooghl nearer home. Suppose a farmer hai studied soils, fertilisers, the relative value of different crops aa monaj makers, and all the problems of sue ctesfal farming. How ranch more la his time worth them that of jba mar who goes at his work haphazard and takas his chances on hitting the right thing? Take Hr. J. A. Harps, d Pineview, for example. He berugtri earns land In Barbecue aad Johnson villa townships a few years ago This land has been lying there evei since creation, producing almoil nothing. He took it and put it ia to bacco, some three or four hundred •era* of K ' and cleared perhaps a hundred dollars per acre an It. Whal are the services of a man at that type worth par day! No doubt Mr. Harp» could taka any one of several hundred farms In this county and do as wall with it as ba haa dona with hit Pincvtew place. Tha dif ference ia not physical but mental. Ai a day laborer Mr. Harps would probably bo worth I oaa than any one of the several hardy, strapping ne groes on kii fares for ha wauld find difficulty in gutting his bach hands to work flexibly. A man's seonoenlc value depends on hi* ability to gat reaulta If ha raa formulate an Idas ar tarn oat • piece of work in an hour that wiD aara five hundred dollars, ha is worth a good deal; tf he can fisrmulata an idea or tare out a pisee of work In an hoar that wiD save a thousand doi hwyiffi is *saah-,*«uod dan»**J tt M ean do hi mall lng"fs fTTlJTlkt wffi preAsea ar aara a aaHHan dollar*, ha la ImraluebJa. Suppose ha cah dig •« ranch dirt ar » so much iron or blow so much glass or pro duce so much corn in three months hit value depends upon tha profit of saving that results from Us effort* A carpenter who builds a house it worth what tha reaulta of hit work plus tha other costa, wiH van for the owner of the hoses. If he can accomplish us much aa tha a rings carpenter can accomplish ia two days then ha it worth twice as much Bo tha milter, tha ploughman, the bri-k maeon, the plumber, the anybody else. Men in all these lines at work ere miniature Goa thole. They can schema and devtaa tine severe, and thui double their accoaspliahosanta. Iho fanner, for instance, who hap been using one borne plows can, by chang ing to larger plows and more horse power, do double the work he haa been doing.

This cult is insinuating itself into our country. One of the commercial journals recently published as an item of nsws tint thirty thousand, expemxtv* replicas of Buddha wort imported into the United Btaies in one year, and are in American homes. "It la so restful to look upon,” say many. Tat, the repose of death, the stagnation of all spirituality. Budd hism, Hinduism in the form at Theo sophy, Vsdantism, and Oriental oc cult! fm are anti-Christian forces that have bean Introduced from India. They form a serious fad. for certain members of society, who. Ilka the Athenians, spend "their time in noth ing else, hut either to tell, or to hear some new thing.”—Selected.
