It is our keenest, most enduring pleasure to search out and present sentiments and Ideas for the encour agement of various classes of readers : of The Gaxette-News. It has been our blessed privilege to comfort many thousands of people, but for one class we have hitherto been able to offer no word of cheer especially applicable to them. This has saddened us. The class to whom we refer are the bow legged, numerously represented in this community. At last our dili gence has been rewarded. The fol lowing s discovered In the Budget, an Insurance paper of Baltimore: Bow legs are trustworthy. They embody the architectural principle of . the arch, which is stronger than two straight pillars. The tortoise, who finished first In that memorable mare. thon with the hare, the bulldog, who whatever odds will finish first or die. both belong among the bow legs. The important thing, however. Is & bow legged mind A mind that- .always moves In straight lines is splendid for peed In level places, but life Is not h cinder path. Human progress Is duo to men of bow-legged mentality, the nooseveit type, men like Uncoln, or Voltaire, for though these names be long to characters essentially unllko. the character of their growth shows the kinship of their minds. Each at various times In his life was labeled a failure, for each came to understand that In human development the shortest distance between two points is seldom a straight line, so they took a bowlegged gait, learning to sacrifice immediate speed In order to gain the advantage of a side view. At any particular Instant they seemed to be going off at a tangent, yet. never stop ping, always growing, they steadily sigxagged ahead. Cultivate bow legs. The Hickory Democrat prints the following letter of appreciation from W. A. Self, the brilliant Hickory lawyer: Gentlemen: To the champion of. Bow Legs (August Budget), whoever he or she may be, I bow and lift my nat. I have used a pair ail my life; have never attempted to exchange, being convinced that there Is no sub stitute "Just as good;" yet. I have not had the courage to proclaim their superlative architectural and artlstlo merits to this perverse and woefully non-aesthetic generation. Hence this obeisance. As to the concluding command I assume that we are not to lose sight of the scriptural admonition, "Let your moderation be known unto all men." which, being Interpreted, mean eth, "Have regard for the rule of rea son." To which the editor replied: "Dear Mr. Self: In the matter of bow legs I yield first place to you, for while I have but one bow leg, the other being Indefinitely wavy, you are bow legs its Self, and of Hickory at that Hence I feel that the propa ganda begun by publishing the war cry, "Cultivate Bow Legs." Is really your, work, and to you I surrender the honor of organising the first chapter of the Brotherhood of Human Cali pers." A GOOD EXAMPLE. People have a great dread of courts and lawyers, which probably explains why a man will submit to any amount of badgering from aa attorney. He thinks probably at ,th time that if he ever gets that lawyer alone In a quiet place, out of the protection of the court, ha will fix his countenance bo his best friend would 1 not know Mm. When he cools off, however, he thinks better or It; dreads to be hauled into court again. Besides, the Judge t m rmltted h lawyer to torment him, t it inu.it be all right from the court's J "!nt of view. ( There Is at !ont one Judge In North . ' i ,i who hns Klven notlre that In i (.nut a viij,,. 1 a cltlsen and ; i n'" 'i v h I ... i rnii-t re-' ' ' I : V ' ' !! V IN no can't aouai a witness in my court," said Judge Peebles. In continent thereon the' Goldsboro Argus says: There has always been too -much of this done by lawyers, and we have always contended that It was wrong. Nine times out of ten a witness is dragged Into court against his will and Is sometimes, forced- to testify against his' best friend, and then has to be subjected to all kinds of abuse and ridicule, and answer all kinds of embarrassing questions, and has no redress whatever, This practice has become so general that witnesses nat urally feel a dread and hesitate to ap. penr as a witness wnen there is any way out of it. Judge Peebles has set a precedent that should be followed by every judge on the Superior court bench in North Carolina. When this is done. It will not be such a difficult matter to get witnesses to testify In a case. We have heard witnesses made to feel very bad and were made a laughing stock for the whole court room by lawyers asking them rldlcu ious questions and ortentlmes are proven to be meaner than the prison er at the bar. And we contend that it is neither wise or proper. MODEL CARMEN. The Ideals of conduct for con ductors and motormen, and held by the men and their employ. ers, are indicated by essays writ ten by the carmen of St. Louis in contest for S500 in prises, award ed by the president of the rail way company. Motorman Jacob Reuhl won the first piiie. He de scribed the "Model Motorman" thus: "Should be neat and clean and never drink. Answers questions politely and briefly and never be drawn Into con versation. Ptop the car conveniently at cross ings for passengers to alight Be cheerful and obliging aboul opening front door lor passengers. Watch for children and others dart ing across streets from behind Ve hicles. Sound gong and run slowly In pass ing schoolhouses or children on the street" Emll Glarwan won the first con ductor's prize, describing the "Model Conductor" as follows: 'Should make rides so pleasant pas sengers will want to ride with him again. Call out Important streets and transfer points. Notify passengers when reaching streets where they have asked to be let off. Register fares as soon as collected to avoid disputes. Keep bill in sight while making change to avoid disputes as to Its de nomination. Give passengers bills when re quested, instead of loading them down with small change. Assist aged or Infirm persons, chil dren and women with babies in get ting on and off cars." Judged by these standards there are a number of model carmen In Ashe vllle. The St Louis company might have included a prise for the beat essay on "The Model Passenger."'' . t Twenty-eight years ago yeeterV day R. R, Clark, now editor and owner of the Btatesvllle Land- the bottom rung of the ladder. About 11 years later he became editor, fol lowing one of the ablest fend most brilliant of North Carolina journalists the State has ever produced Joseph P. Caldwell. Mr. Clark has worthily worn this mantle, has constantly de veloped and broadened. He Is one of North Carolina's great men. It seems as if the board of alder, men ought to comply with the petl. tlon of a majority of the Charlotte street property owners a decided majority who ask that the street be paved with bitullthio Instead of brick; especially as the contract for the brick paving has not been signed. The brick costs more, and Is objectionably noisy. Many of the property owners say they would rather the street were left as It Is than paved with brick. Hickory people are already reaping th rewards of enterprise. Says the Democrat: "There were three pur chases by outside parties of real estate in Hickory last week traceable direct ly to this city's $200,000 guarantee fund to new Industries. People want to own property la a town that Is building for th future ilk ours. By the way. there are few better Invest ment bargains In North Carolina now thaa Hickory real estate." 8peaking generally, It la hen vaca tion time. Th dignified barnyard dame has about quit laying. She will give her attention for a few days te her wardrobe, getting rid of her old habiliments and decking ouf In new.

"That $1,000,000 Increase In taxable values la a mlghtly good showing for Buncombe, even If the automobiles did almost escape the assessor's searching eye," thinks the Charlotte Observe. Maybe the automoblllst't license tax salves his conscience. Jow Is the time to begin laying thr foundation for a successful ball seas' on next year. That was another great game yes-1 terday, although It came out wrong. Representative of Dudley Family Pro tests. Editor "of The Gasette-News. AS one of the representatives of Gov. Dudley's family. I take It as s personal insult tne item which you published in Saturday afternoon's pa per of Aug. 26th, page second, under heading, "Young bridegroom arrested on felony charges." You should no tify your correspondent to be correct in his reports where it reflects on oth ers. You could give stranger's name alone without any mention of a spot ess nam Gov. E. B. Dudley m' grandfather) causing humility of family connections by this publication or the actions of a stranger to the most of the family. Since your publi cation nowever, it nas been proven that the charges were entirely false and the gentleman has been honora bly discharged. I think It due the family for you should be more careful In bringing to correct the error, and In future you others In connection with party con cerned before the public MRS. MARY DUDLEY ROBERTS.

They observed the 20th. Mr. J. H. Lange gathered in a liberal offering from them. If any have been missed they will find the same collection "basket" at the Glen Rock hotel on the clerk's desk. All the ministers of all the churche. hoth white and colored, will next Sun day announce the offering and tell their congregations about the needs f the hospital and some of the good it has done. Sunday school superintendents and teachers will do the same. Everybody who knows of the offering and the hospital will do the same to every body else. Posters and printed circulars have been mailed to every minister In the county, also to one or two leading members in every church In the county. Contribution banks have already been placed In the school at Black Mountain, North Fork, Swannanoa west Ashevllle, Blltmore, Barnards- ille. Democrat Ivy Hill, Grace, Wea vervllle College, Weavervllle, Falrview and other schools. AU that have been canvassed will take the offering on September S. i j iw wuuvj nw own more xnor- -.-..

During August there were 4 opera tlons at the hospital. The only case lost waa a little boy who was In a hopeless -condition when taken thtre. Yesterday there were 68 patients In the building, six more than at any time ever before. Seventy-two were received In Aug ust and 117 were treated. New beds have had to he placed In the charity wards. Pay patients have been turned away every day In August for lack of room.
