Hie order sates that the license shall be issued as of January 1, 1939, for the construc tion. operation and maintenance of the project for a peroid of SO years from the effective date. The authorization follows a hearing held on proposal before the full commission yesterday. • BEGIN WORK BEFORE JUNE The order directs that the city of High Point shall commence construction of the project on or before June 1, 1939, and shall thereafter, in good faith and with due diligence prosecute such con struction, and shall complete the project on or before June 1, 1942.

Presbyterian Notes The religion of Jesus Christ taught in our churches is the most vital factor for our concern today. Values of life are changing so rapidly all around us it seems at times that this is all that is left that is worthy of our sacrifice. We in America stand at the gate of opportunity if we are true to the trust which has been bestowed upon us. If we fail in keeping this mes sage which has brought liberty, and freedom, we are failing in that which is vital Jo our Nation. Individual interest, by partici pating in the programs of the churches, is thei only way in which this, which is of so much value to us, can be kept. In Europe today we see God and the church being crowded out of the life of Nationals. In stead of the church they have armaments, war, fear, and hate of neighbor and brother. These poor fubstitutes have brought misery and suffering untold. ' Our churches to America offer to us hope. Why not try going to your church next Sunday. Some of our Sunday School teachers were kept at home Bun 'day because of illness. The at tendance was larger than we hive had for four Sundays. Everyone enjoyed the new shrubbery they found planted at the church Sunday. This was started by friends who are neigh bors of the church. | The Young People met in a pioneer meeting Sunday night 'with Wilton Money as leader. The Stewardship meeting of the church was held last Sunday night at 7:30 p.m. with a large number present from the Yadkin ville church. Everyone enjoyed and profited by the messages that were given by Mr. Wells and MJT. Taylor, officers of the First Church, Winston-Salem. We give everyone a cordial in ' vltation to attend our Sunday morning church school and church services. Good Cry Help* Mrs. Duff: "I always feel lots better after a good cry." Mrs. Jawson: "So do I. It sort of gets things out of your sys tem." Mrs. Duff: "No, it doesn't get anything out of my system, but It does get things out of my hus band." The first American Y. M. C. A. was established in Boston, Mass., on Dec. 30, 1851. Trombone Trick The circus was visiting a town in the hills. The folk recognised all the instruments of the band except the slide trombone.
