The iaw'-os this subject is plain and clear, and if enforced to the letter would saye many from pre mature graves. It is this impunity with which men may carry revolvers that has bred and developed this wholesale slaughter of humanity, and it is time the legislature of ftorth Carolina makes the can ying of con cealed weapons a penitentiary of fense. Other states have done so and if we are to retain our place in the ecale of enlightened and intelli gent people let us put a higher value on human life, and make the posses sion of a manslayer's weapon a fel ony. Under present conditions eyen bill collectors, secure in the know, ledge of their hidden guns, can walk into the unprotected hbmes of honest working men and shoot at will. Not even the presence of aged mothers and wailing infants can avert the muzzles of the murderer's gun. Why is human life held so cheaply? Because, as we have stated, mushy and incompetent juries continue to turn man killers loose on helpless and shamed communities.

The house was prettily decorated with white, and green, the color scheme for the' evening. The table in the dining room, around which the wedding party were seated, was beautiful in its artistic decorations The table was completely covered with handsome Battenburg lace, and1 had for a centerpiece a tall handled green basket tied with a large bow of white tul'e. This basket held the wedding cake which was iced in white and green with the initials of the bride and groom. From the cen terpiece to the four corners of the table were ropes ' of asparagus fern twined with white tulle . which was tied into a large bow at each corner of the the table. , About the table were white and green bonbons and ereen shaded white tapers. The re- freshments were dainty and delicious E. D.

' Every patient received a bountiful supply of candies, fruits, nuts, etc., and throughout the long corridors holly and other decorations and large banners bearing such inscriptions as "A Happy Christmas" and "Christ mas Greetings," added to the happi ness of the patients. The preparation of the special Christmas dinner, which is given every year, is an enormus uhdertak ing. More than 150 turkeys and abont 200 chickens were prepared for the dinner, which will give some idea of the proportionate amount of other things it requires for the meal. In addition special entertainments and amusements were arranged for Christmas week and patients -'give and receive' presents and a general happiness fills the entire institution.
