The boll weevil has a habit of doing two things at the same time— rkstroying cotton and raising the price of the staple. The person who is always look in* for the bad in everythin* very often overlooks the food. Yet we have some of that type with US As the Pindog cor respondent would put it, the time is fast ap *proachin* when picking will be tht order of the day. Add that tc your pleasant thoughts. Up in Cleveland county a fly has been discovered which is Hid to feed on bolt weevils. If it be true that the fly has cultivated a taste for- boll weevil meat we see no rea son why any member of that spe cie* should go hungry, especially during the summer months. So far as wc hare learned the first bale of 1923 cotton sold in the State was marketed in Dunn, which tasks as one of the very best cot ton markets in the South. The fact that cotton is coming to mark et shonld-have a telling effect up on basinet generally, and it will. o ■ .'With the favorable seasons this year tor growing cotton under boll weevil conditions, it is not likely that a bigger crop will ever again bugrodneed i nthis section than the -190 crop wiH prove to be. It would be wcB to keep this in mind when ptanthn* for next year's Tha New Era Charles P. -StemmeU, electrical wiyard. says there is no reason why afl a*_'-'---L _l< m the not distant future should nor be performed m four hours of ser vice per day by the rank aiul file of rtir world's producing popula tion: r(c predicts that most of the world s work will be done electrical It am adds that the new era will t ’ake it possible for every laborer to t:Jca a vacation of five months in evry twelve. Surely most of us » ould Rice to five in the “new era” of t.it:cb the wizard is dreaming. No one class baa done more to ward* the upbuilding of American civilization than the country preach er. We befieve the country church has a greater power for dotng good tbaar the town or city church. In the average rural district the church s the community meeting place, and there arc not ao many attractions to draw folk* away from the church terriers It is the censer of community interest and the rural population gives more Heed to the gospel appeals of the church pastor. Writing on this subject Clarence Foe, editor of The Progressive Farmer asps: Holding this conception of agri cultural program as we do, it is nafnral that w* give high piece to the country preacher of the South. In our whole rural civilization there is no more important man than he. A«d much as he has beau able |o do w the past, be ought to be able to do much more in the fmum. Thera is an old story that when •mfir all you can." “AmnoT res ponded a thrifty aad alow church trader. “Ami ( my. ra al you era," Wesley warn on, and again the ahl man roared “Airvm r he —=SB*BSBmSE-*»m. . too often had to make bricks with* oat straw. This should now he the awe no longer. As we have in creased teacher*’ salaries, so should we increase preachers' salaries. As we have built larger, better, and more beautiful school buildings, so should we build larger, aad mote beautiful church building*. A Hasrilsts Deed If it is possible to do a trick so mean that it would displease the devil himself that of kidnaping a child crust be one of that class In New York city last Saturday a dtnooths-old baby was kidnapped and all adorn to locate the infant have been futile. The child eras taken from a baby carriage left in front of the father’s store. Daily since that time the prostrate par ents have left the carriage in the same place with the hope that the child might be returned. To be sure die period, or persons, doing the kidnaping were not parents. Could they have realized the plan, grief and anxiety which their cow ardly act brought to the parents of the babe, surely they couldn’t have had the heart to commit the deed. - __ Order Negro Merchant To Change Business Wilmington. August 21—Charlie Hagan, negro merchant of Fair Bluff, Columbus county, was taken from His store Saturday night by a masked mob and ordered to change his place of business, according 'o news reaching here today.
