"I've played a lot of checkers in ir.y

afternoon as he sat watching two men
moving the wooden disks across til ?
red and black board.
"I uster be counted the best Uiey

making a lot of mistakes in that 'are
game that 1 ceckon I'd taep urty nigh

A well dressed stranger who was
watching the game with considerable
ioterst glance* patronizingly at the
speaker.
"I use to be somewnat of a checker

heard a lot about you old timers.
I'd like to play you a few games.
Uncle, Just for the sake of getting a
few pointers, and IH guarantee you
1 wont get angry If you beat me.
The Sage looked at his watch with
a nervous expression. ,
"I gotta go bome no* an' carry In

toward the door.

sociation l'rge* I'pon Evehy Wo
man, and Child iu the State of
North Carolina the Importance of
Contributing one Day's Income, to
the Orphanage Work ?f the State As
a Thanksgiving Offering.
Thousands of children are safely
sheltered in our Orphan Homes, but
four times as many are as vet un
cared for- and left to shift for them- 1
selves in a world of temptation and
peril without a father's counsel )r a
mother's care ? without a home, a
penny or a friend! It is primarily
in. behalf of these homeless ones tliat
this movement is launched. We must
enlarge our orphanage and admit
more of the little ones on the out
side. who are clamoring to come in.
Kach institute in the State is
crowded to its utmost capacity, with
a steam of children standing at the
gates and crying for admisison. If
a tithe of the citizens of North Caro
lina will give the price of one day's
labor to the orphanage work, it will
mean the salvation of a thousand
North Carolina children now on their
way to the dogs and the devil. Io
Uiis work not worthy of the best effort
cf every good citizen?

The Good Example of Doctor.
This interesting story appeared in
the Winston-Salem Journal. Novem
ber 7: "The movement, started in
January, when a central committer,
composed of people of all denomi
nations, met in Raleigh and decided
to ask every man in the State to set
apart the earnings of one day and
give it to the orphanage in the State
in which he was most interested,
already gaining ground. One man, a
physician, decided not to wait until
Thanksgiving to make his donation,
as had been sugested. but used a
novel way in selecting a day in Oc
tober and has already sent in a nice
li*Me sum toward helping the father
less and motherless. His letter to
Mr. Walter Thompson, superinten
dent of the Childrens' Home here,
reads as follows: 'I named October
22 as the day to give what 1 made
to the . children. This was a chance
day, as I put the dates of October in
a hat and this date was drawn outT
I did $23 worth of work that day,
and collected $10 of It, for which I
am sending you check. The balance,
$13, was charged, but I think I shall
be able to collect It- and when I do I
shall forward it to you. The same
day 1 performed an operation on a
boy in one of the charitable institu
tions near by, and treated several
children for our local associated
charities. The amount could have
proven smaller, also larger, and f
.hope next year it will prove a better
one.'* ?

Pay your debts, be a live dog with a chance to run about barking and enjoying life'
but to be always in debt is to be like a lion in a cage, and to be sold?ut or sued is to die in
the cage- We have a large amount of money that we carried over from last year due us,
and a large amount we put out thisyear that we are compelled to collect to pay our debts.
We have waited until November 1st, but now we must have it There are a lot of men i*
this county who have been educated not to pay their honest debts, now, if we have to
bring a suit we are not going to give you coupons, but we are going to give you, if
you don't pay us something else? the younglady who is doing the writing on this, does
not like to write, but unless you pay us, you are going to smell it- Unless the people of
Franklin County pay their debts better, wholesale dealers will think that civilization has
disappeared in Louisburg and the dark ages have returned. We have someTikers in this
county who manage to make ends meet with a good outside show, but when you call for
yoilr money, he shows you his yellowness. Cotton is high and cotton seed is higher and
tobacco is high, sell it and pay us what you owe us. Even the devil despises a quitter.
, Some of you have lived full, fed and fat a long time but your day of grace will soon be
here? November 1st. We will pull off our annual mortgage sale sometime the latter part
of November or the first of December. Get your money ready, we expect this sale to be
the Grandady of all mortgage sales ever held in Franklin County. Watch for large posters
