AN AMERICAN CREED In these days of laxity and disregard, we are reminded of the famous "Creed for the llusy Man," propounled by Elbert Hubbard, who went down to a watery grave with the Lusitania, as a sacrifice to the god of war. The Immortal Hubbard) unleashed precepts that would Insure Amer lean ideals and success and happiness, if made the rule rather than She- exception. Clip this creed), if need be, and keep - it near. By so doing ' you will ' promulgate its principles: The Busy Man's Creed I believe In tre stuff I am handing _ eut, In the firm I am working for, and in my ability to get results. I believe that honest stuff can be passed out to honest men by honest methods. 1 believe in working, not weeping, In boosting, not knocking; and in the pleasure of my Job. 1 believe that a man gets what he goes after, that one deed done today is worth two deeds tomorrow, and that no man is down and out until he has lost fakh in himself. I believe in today and the work I am doing; in tomorrow and the work 1 hope to do. and in the sure reward - which tbe future holds. 1 believe iu courtesy, in kindness. In generosity, iu good cheer, Id friendship, and in honest oompettii .tion. I believe there Is something doing, somewhere, for any man ready to do I ? 1 believe I'm ready?right now! ?Sunshine Magaziue. iWHAT IS COTTON tThe Cctton Trade Journal) Cotton is the overcoat of a seed a that- is planted and grown in the Southern. States to keep the producer broke and Hie buyer crazy. The fibre varies In color and weight audi the man who can guess the nearest thlie length of a fibre is called a cotton man by the public, a fool by the farmer, and n Door business man bv Ihis creditors. The price of cotton Is fixed in New York, and it' goes ua> when you have Sgold and lotvn when you have bought. A buyer working for a group of mills was .scut to New York to watch the cotton market and after a few days' deliberation, wired his firm: | ' 'Some think H will go up and some think it wlH go down. I do, too. What ever you do will be wrong. Aot at once." ; Cotton Is planted in the spring, mortgaged In the summer, left In the fields In the winter. There are other definitions, but none better than this. TO THOSE WHO HAVE GRADUATED The HERALD Is dWighted to note the large number of young people (from Kings Mountain who have received either high school or college diplomas during the commencement season which has just closed. To these wo wish, to offer our sincere congratulations. Few occasions stand out in the memory of boys and> girls as the thrill of graduation. Our best wishes go with each graduate as he or sho goes into a world of perplexing problems. The Herald hopes that as many ( of the 1938 High school graduates as possible wlD continue their studies t institutions of higher learning in order that they may be better prepared to go forth Into the world. Those who must seek their economical fortune Immediately we trust will not forget the lessons learned In high school but will apply the training they have received1. Lx>e&l churches are starting vacation Bible schools, and the attendance will doubtless be good. There Is perhaps no better or more effective way to give the boys and girls of the community a thorough oourse In 111 ble than in a vacation school.

They know that men who loved freedom more than life died, a century and a half ago, to make it the orlflamme of liberty.

They know that succeeding generations carried It westward, through forest and prairie, over desert and mountain, until Its protection spread across an entire continent They know that men died under Its folds to make other men free; that a generation still with us bore it over1 seas, to blazon there Its constant chali lenge to tyranny.
