I j J 1HE VETERANS* PRAYER (Nov. 11) Today they will vision it ah1 afresh That -welter of vermin and mud. The tangle of bones and jumble of flesh. And Hate's dark river of blood. Today they will still be wondering why, Just what that hell was for. And each true veteran-heart will cry. ' God, iet us have no more war!" They see great chiefs of poisonous breath. And greedy and ruthless hand Assemble their youth once more for death? The shambles of "No Man's Land;"' And shaking their heads with heartworn sighs At the thing their souls abhor, i The veterans cry, "Oh, men, be Wise! ' God. let lis have no more war!" Grov heads and shell-torn arms now raise With sightless and staring - yes. To pray as only the ictim pravs j Who was onco Hates sacrifice: i "God, smother the hell-red faggot of ! Mars. The ominous thunder oi Ther, Give life, sweet life, 'neatti the western stars. But let us have no mot-c war.'' i By EMMA MORETZ COFFEY Rufus, X. C. A SPLENDID ACHIEVEMENT Assistant County Agent Har-: rv Hamilton, and the group oi boys who. under his skillful leadership, were able to produce Hereford steers of sucli excellent quality that they practically took the show at the Asheville exhibition the other day. are to be roundly felicitated upon their remarkable achievements. Watauga county has long felt the need of an improvement in tire blood lines of its herds, and the enterprise of the county agent's office in stimulating in terest among the youths of this county in the livestock business is already bearing fruit. Another year will likely see othei boys feeding Herefords intc prize show cattle, and see othei parents becoming more ant more concerned, to the end thai there is likelihood of Wataugr county becoming a sort of gathering point for those who wan! beef cattle of the most improved sort. It is a great job that i! being done, and Harry Hamil ton and his boys deserve the co operation and encouragement o all. S25 A PLATE Information coming from t.h< Democratic National Commit tee is to the effect that tb Jackson Day dinners in Janu ary will be held, as usual, in al forty-eight states, and t h P?li+V?-ftlT ft/1 /->. nnt jojuiiui uic c.vpcticu IV cdt all1 make meriry?at no less tha $25 per plate. Genial Jim Farley points on that those who do not desire t pay $25, may pay $50 or $100in other words, as Queen Eiiz; beth once suggested, when tol the poor had no money fc bread: "If they can't buy brea why don't they eat cake?'" Thus the management of tl party of Jefferson and Jacksc has. taken on the exclusivene; of a bridge club, and only tl socially and fiscally elect rnr gather around the banqui board to drink a toast to Jacl son, the plain, outspoken, soutl Democrat, whose mudc WATAUGA ;! boots arc said to have been an _ . injury to the polished floor's of | !' the White House, way back in ! the days before a man's great- . P r.ess was measured by bis rnone- { I tary achievements. | The rank and file of the ! Democratic party throughout ' j the country, the great masses 11 i i who keep sweeping President | | Roosevelt into power and who g ; j would likely do it again today. fj . 1 can't enjoy the Jackson Day 11 ' dinners this % ear. If thev are g i I so fortunate as to have twenty- E i five dollars, it must go for coal fj or for baby shoes or for pro- 1| vender. These Jackson Day din- B ' ners have been looked forward i I j to by we. the masses, since 'I | their inception, but in January ^ the millions will be compelled S to stay at home while the job- r j holders ana the privileged feast \ themselves in commemoration, h of a rugged Democrat, who, if! he were called back, probably pj wouldn't have the high-flown T mannerisms so essentia! at a ^ ' banquet of such exclusiveness. | j ? - r? 4-1 $ ] L.OCAL CHURCH ii SERVICES | I' ? fi FIRST BAPTIST '# Sunday, November I t, 1.937 is The pasor greatly appreciates the? kind treatment by his friends or. the ? third anniversary of his pastorate in : R ; Boone.
