But these chil dren weren't born that way. These undesirable traits developed grad ually because some parent made bad mistakes in child training. Not because he intended to but because he didn't understand child psychol ogy, didn't know how to teach good habits, how to guide his child to successful living. The eyes of many parents have been opened to a new understand ing of children, they have been helped to work out better, easier, happier ways of training their chil dren by reading "The Parent's Magazine." Each month it brings them very practical, helpful articles on every phase of child care from crib to college. It deals with such subjects as obedience, adolescence, temper, habits, and character train ing. Doctors, teachers, psycholo gists, experts in many fields of child training, as well as mothers and fathers write its lntereseting helpful articles. Mistakes in child training are costly. They may affect the entire future of your ? boy or girl. That is why you can't afford to be without "The Parent's Hip H. J. Stockard Victim of Secret, Assault. Early last Monday night Hardy J. Stockard, Democratic candidate for sheriff, while standing and talk ing with Ross Henderson in the store of Oraham Drug Co., had a soft drink bottle thrown at him by one "Son" Andrews. The bottle grazed the left side of his head and ear, slightly stunned him. Seeing that he had failed to fell Stockard, Andrews was In the act of striking with his fist when Stockard grap pled him. A. K. Hardle, near by, caught Andrews around the body and held him. A warrant was sworn out and An drews was committed to jail upon failing to give bond. Stockard was not aware of the presence of his assailant when the missile was hurled at his head, nor had he spoken to him. That the In jury inflicted was not more serious is no fault of Andrews. Mr. Stockard had been up in the I law offices of Long & Ross and when he came down he observed a number of persons standing on the sidewalk near the entrance. He did not stop, but walked on across to j the drug store. Andrews Is report ed to have been in the crowd and to have been heard to say that he would "fix Stockard so that he would never be sheriff." Evidently Andrews fallowed to make good his threat. The warrant was sworn out be fore Mayor John M. Crawford, who bound him over to court in a bond of $500, which, as stated above, has not been posted. The amount of the bond is very small for'so grave an offence. And the jail in which Andrews is being held is in charge of an un cle, Ben Andrews, who is the jailor. It seems, too, the proper thing for the county commissioners to do is to have Andrews removed to the jail of another county for safe keeping, and thereby relieve the uncle of embarrassment. By so doing, if Andrews failed to appear for his trial neither the Al amance jailor nor the commission ers could be blamed for anything. There is a rumor that Andrews had been drinking and that he had been egged on to do what he did. bee egged to do what he did. PLANT MORE WHEAT, SUGGESTS SHEFFIELD North Carolina imports eight million bushels of wheat annually in the form of grain and bread over the amount produced in the state though the grain may be grown profitably and successfully over the whole state. "We have been gratified to ob serve a greater interest in wheat growing this fall as shown by the reports of our county agents," says Charles A. Sheffield, assistant ex tension director, at State college. ."Some of the agents report that farmers in their counties are plant ing wheat for the first time this fall. Among the counties reporting these new wheat growers are Cum berland, Caswell and Durham. Oth er agents say the experienced grow ers are making.preparations for a better wheat crop this season." Mr. Sheffield attributes the an nual shortage in the wheat crop of this state as being due to a gen eral belief that it is not a profitable crop. He admits that vheat pro duced on the average farm is a los ing proposition but those men who make as much as 20 bushels an acre are doing so at a profit. North Carolia farmers purchase annually about four million more bushels of wheat than they produce and another four million bushels is bought in the form of bread by the city and town population of the state. This is a condition that should be remedied, says Mr. Shef field, because the great piedmont country is a natural wheat grow ing section while there are large areas in eastern Carolina where the crop may be profitably grown. Some folks overlook the value of wheat growing in a farm rotation. It permits the planting of thou sands of more acres of clovers and other legumes for soil improvement with only little extra cost for seed ing. Wheat acts as a nurse crop for legumes and so fits in the rotation that it is little trouble to produce legume hay and soil improving crops for he balanced system of farming now being advocated, he says. Five carloads of beef cattle have been shipped to Hyde county by Al leghaney county growers to be win tered on the swamp reeds of that eastern county. zine."

Its splendid work has done much to bring a friendly feeling in all parts of the world for the people of our country because they sustain the American Red Cross. This wonderful organization is entitled to the liberal support of our peo ple." The Honorable Andrew W. Mel lon, Secretary of the Treasury, says: "No one can predict when or where disaster may occur or acute emergency arise. The American Red Cross represents our commu nity insurance against such misfor tunes. The organization stands ready at all timea to render 6peedy relief to any stricken area in our own country or to assist in the re lief of disaster in foreign countries. The Red Crose Is the agency which carries on when emergency has dis rupted customary modes and means of life in a community." Six Foreign Countries Receive Red Cross Aid Relief was given by the American Red Cross during the year In six for eign nations in disasters ranging from a tidal wave in Newfoundland, an earthquake In Persia, floods in France to help for refugees from RubsIs and prevention of a smallpox epidemic In Costa Rica. The 15,000 Red Cross contribution to Newfoundland, following the tidal wave, which took twenty-six lives and destroyed many homes and Ashing boats, was the first from an outside country to reach the distressed people The sum of (5,000 was given to thi fund for the relief of the Mennonlti refugees of German descent, who had determined to leave Russia for new lands.
