C. Walton was received with profound sorrow by his many friends in this State and Virginia. Dr. Walton was 59 years old, and his life was full of service to human ity. Few men have had the fortune to obtain the confidence and good will of all their associates to the. ex tent that Dr. Walton possessed. His professional brethren several times honored him with responsible posi tions in their organizations; but be will be longest remembered for the friendly spirit that made his life a benediction to scores of the needy not always the financially needy, but those in need of a word of sympathy and encouragement. He was a suc cessful physician and enjoyed a large and varied practice. When a young man he began prac ticing at Prospect Hill, In Caswell county, and in 1893 removed to Reidsville, where he was associated professionally first with Dr. Len O, Broughton and later with Dr. J. A. Williams, remaining here for eleven years. He resided In Danville for two yearB and was associated with Drr. J. 3. Irvln. Later he was re-1- dent physician at the Mecklenburg Mineral Springs, Chase City, Va., and for the last six years has had a sanitarium in Richmond, Va, About two years ago Dr. Walton suffered a stroko of paralysis and since that time has resided at his wife's home In Ridgefleld, N. J. Dr. Walton was a prominent mem ber of the North Carolina Medical Society and for several years was a member of the North Carolina State Board of Medical Examiners. He was also a member of the Danville Acad emy of Medicine, and the Virginia State and Richmond City Medical Societies. He Is survived by his wife and two children, a boy and a girl. Mr. J. C. Faucette of this county and Mr. Wal ton Brown of Danville are nephews, and Mrs. II. A. Faucette of this county and Mrs. W. B. Woody of Rockdale, Texas, are sisters of the deceased. Dr. Walton was born In Caswell county. After his graduation from Jefferson Medical College, In Phila delphia, he practiced for 25 or 30 years IrVthis State, We cannot understand why the Winston Journal keeps talking about Chatham or any other man for Con gress. We know that Mr. Chatham isn't going to run against Major Stedman. He is going to run again maybe twice more. He is vigorous anil he Is making good. Of cotirrse Winston has a right to talk; the Journal cannot be blamed for wanting a man who will give It the postofllce, but this thing of insisting that Major Stedman should be turn ed down Is making some people weary, a tjonieueraie Boiaier; an able lawyer;" a first class Congress man, the question arises why Hhould any one offer to run against him. Certainly a lot of nerve. The Con gressman gets more experience each year he is there, becomes more valu able, and for the Journal to keep talking about somebody to defeat the Major is in bad taste. A stock holder of the Journal wanted to be postmaster and didn't get it. Therein Is the sour milk in the gourd. And the people are wise to this. Mr. Mar tin knows Major Stedman is making good and why he wants to keep In sisting that somebody should run against the Major is funny. Major j Stedman will be elected if any Dem ocrat Is elected. This district is not safe by any means, aand we make bold to say that Major Stedman will secure more Republican votes than any Democrat in the district be cause he is universally popular and because he is deserving. Fairbroth- er's Everything. BILLY SUNDAY'S SERMON THOUSANDS OF WOMEN Dr. Walton 's remains In Ridgefleld Saturday. were burled ADVISES FARMERS TO CUT OUT SOME OF IT One lone man faced 3fi,000 women and talked to them with brutal frankness that brooded no misunder standing. He stood before 36,000 women and spoke to them thoughts that were clothed in no veneer or gloss of language. He hurled at 36,000 women views that were as rabid as they were out spoken, as burning as they were bit ter. ; He interested 36,000 women, shock ed some, hurt others, and grieved many.'., But he said that he had told them all the truth, as far as he was given the light to tell. Billy Sunday was the lone man. Three audiences filled the tabernacle. It was the first time that the dynamic evangelist had addressed congrega tions comprised entirely of the oppo site sex. Billy didn't feel the slight est embarrassment on that account, although his auditors may have felt some. The apostle of the unvarnish ed speech fired away with the same zeal, the same ardor, the same di rectness as he does when talking to an audience comprised entirely of men. ' The energetic clergyman didn't take any undue advantage of his au diences, nor did he suffer them to be taken unawares. Before starting each sermon be told any woman "who did not care to hear plain talk from a man" to leave. Not a single person left. And hear plain talk from a man they surely did. The vast Bea of faces that spread before him were just like so many thousand white dots. The women were nervous and stirred un easily in their seats. As the sermon progressed the wo men became easier in feeling and manner. Upon Its finish thirty hit the trail. The second service was a duplicate of the initial meeting. One hundred and thirty-six struck the sawdust trail at this meeting. MEW SPRING CLOTHES HERE ? Our selection of young men's suits were never more strikingly beautiful.

Drop in and take a look whether you wish to buy or not. We enjoy showing Nice Clothes and making walking advertisments. S. S. HARRIS WHEN LOVE IS DONE. (By Duval Porter.) "Tho' Night has a thousand eyes, The Day but one. Yet light of a whole world dies When Day is done." Though Hate has a thousand eyes, And Love but one, Yet light of a whole life dies When Love is done. Cascade, Va., March 15, 1915. A New Banner. Engineer Hunter has started some thing by carrying a banner on his en gine of "Safety First," It shows that Mr. Hunter has the subject on his mind; that he is watchful and care ful, which in itself is half the battle. And yet we recall an old engineer on the Southern who never had an acci dent for 30 years, then he killed a man by running over him at a station. This so unnerved the old fellow that he never got over it and finally he quit his job and died soon thereaf ter. Greensboro Record, Can't Stop Him. "Can't keep me from getting li quor," said an old man today. "I made it out of molasses during the war and can do it again. I raised the cane, made the molasses, then the 11 quor. The greatest objection I had to it was that it made me drunk be fore I could have much fun. It also made me fearfully sick the next day. but on the theory of the hair of the dog being good for the bite, I tried it again." Greensboro Record. "RUNAWAY JUNE" WILL GIVE " TRIPS TO THE EXPOSITION If tobacco warehouse : people throughout the country, and supply merchants and others who are In terested, want to do a genuine kind- ess to the great army of tobacco farmers, they will advise them gainst the planting of too much to bacco another year; or, as to that, any year. This journal has always advised against this dangerous pol icy. We have contended if ways that the only sensible thing for to bacco farmers to do Is to produce their own home supplies aa far as possible and then to plant as much tobacco as they can care for in the proper way, and In a way that will be profitable. We personally come into contact with thousands of tobacco planters annually, and whenever we find one who pursues the policy of making his own supplies, and then what tobacco he can well care for, we find a man in a good fix. On the other hand, when a tobacco farmer grews tobacco to the exclusion o other crops he Is generally hard up. If tobacco planters would do am we suggest there would be no necessity for low prices and there would be a great deal less common and unsalable stuff. Southern Tobacco Journal. es.
