ARENDELL TELLS
KIWANIS MERITS
Membership Brbfi Daily Thrill
Sonl Contentment, He MJi
In AUnu
Each golden sunset brings members
of s Klwanis Club a thrill of sojti
contentment because of a lite made
happier that day,, declared Banks
Arendell of Raleigh, in addressing
the Loulsburg Klwanis Club at its
regular weekly meeting here Friday
night. Mr. Arendell, who is presi
dent of the Raleigh Kiwanls Club,
spoke on the subject of "Klwanis
Education," and his remarks were, in
part, as follows:
"Education, Klwanis or otherwise,
may be defined simply and in ordin
ary, everyday parlance as "knowing
what it is all about" Klwanis con
tacts in the form of luncheon meet
ings, street-corner gabfests, social
calls, barbecues, ladies' nights, con
ventions and the like, brings us all
close to one another iff common ties
ot brotherhood. Eating together,
traveling together, talking together,
playing together, and .thinking togeth
er, all tend to make us broader and
more tolerant of our fellowman. That
glad hand in time ot success and that
brotherly arm around one's shoulder
in time of sorrow impress upon us
Kiwanlans the wholesome value ot
cuch beautiful friendships and under
standings. Then, too, the fact that we
r.re representatives of different na
tionalities and sections and spates
and of all walks of life breeds unity
in our rank. But are these things
strong enough to teach us "what it is
nil about?" Decidedly not, Invaluable
though they are.
"As Kiwanlans and as men, our
souls hunger for a food that the or
dinary routine of the day in our of
fices and stores and farms and fac
tories is powerless to supply That
food comes when members of this
organization can count at the close
of each day a real service to those
arouind us who need our help and
influence. I mean such types of ser
vce as the students' loan fund, for
worthy college students, the assis
tance given by such organizations as.
the Loulsburg Kiwanls Club to the
stricken farmers of that ?s!?mmunity,
the summer camps for the under
privileged children, free medical
clinics, playgrounds, whole - time
nurses, orthopedic attention to crip
pled children, and on and on, world
without end. Kiwanlans who do these
things, yon may be sore, "know what
it is all about." And each golden
sutnset brings them a thrill of soul
contentment because of a life made
happier that day.
"Flfla objectives are the stuff of
which all worth while men are made,
whether they be Kiwanlans or what
not. The attainment of those ob
jectives is what fastens us to the
higher philosophy which knows no
doubt or boredom, which teaches us
in unmistakable terms the certain
ties of life and which reveals for us
in a surer and a purer light the eter
nal meaning of those Immortal words:
"Ah, but a man's reach exceeds bis
grasp;
Or what's Heaven for?"
Dr. C. C. Alexander, president ot
Lonisbury College and chairman of
the committee on Kiwanls education,
had charge of the program. Harry
Fagan, trustee ot the Raleigh Ki
wanls Club, was a visitor at the
meeting. '

Textiles At State College p
m\i
The growth of the rayon and knit- ft
ting industries, coupled with the diver h
slftcalion of the cotton manufacturing p
industry, has created a demand for t<
Intelligent young men who have been tl
thoroughly trained in the manufac
ture and finishing of textiles. Years
ago all the cotton manufactured in
the South want into coarse yarns to
be need for sheetings, hosiery, ging
hams, etc. Today Southern mills are
manufacturing fancy cotton and ray- T
on fabrics, fancy and full fashioned ?
hosiery which are the equal of any
produced In America.
Dr. Thomas Ne(jton of 8tate College
says that there is an increasing de
mand for the Textile School gradu
ates of that Institution to go into
thsse modern manufacturing plants
and earn lucrative positions of re
sponsibility. Since June, Dr. Nelson
has received many revests for
but M all the last graduating class
had accepted positions before com
mencement, he has' been unable to
rill these requests.

Trees Need Watering1
Kent, 0., July 30.?Trees need wat
ering rather than sprinkling during
the warm weather season, according
to Martin L. Davey. conservationist
and head of the Davey Institute of
Tree Surgery.
Trees, like human beings, will dte
far more quickly of thirst than hung
er. When they display signs of Im
pending death that are evident to the
layman it may be too late to save
tliora. The only safe rule, according
to Davey. Is to keep trees adequately
watered throughout the entire sum
mer, ?
Sprinkling for a brief period in the
evening in real hot weather does not
help trees at all, Davey explains. It
may even do harm to them by attract
ing the new roots too close to the sur
face of the ground.
Proper watering is made possible
by perforating the soil with a spad
ing fork to the full depth of the tines.
A series of these perforations should
be made in the circumference de
scribed by the spread of the branches.
At least once every two weeks in the
summer water should be run into
the perforations for several hours.
During a drought this should be done
at least once a week.
"At most homes or estates the lawn
is a.ways well sprinkled because the
results of 1 eglect are soon apparent,"
Davey said. "Less attention is paid
to trees because the consequences are
not quickly seen. Yet, a parched
lawn may be renewed within one
growing season, but a stately tree not
within a generation."
One use to which trees put water is
to manufacture food for their imme
diate needs and to store a surplus
whici. is used especially at the start
of the growing season the fallowing
spring.
The drought of last year weakened
the vitality of most trees so that their ,
l>attle against his season's arid weath
er is of special importance. In ad
dition to an ample supply of water
most treee should be fed this year
prlth a high grade of tree food. ?
Trees that are permitted to go into
he autumn season in a weakened
condition will shed their leaves pre
maturely and thus be furthes weak
sued. as they stop feeding whea the
eaves are gone
People who stop to let the train
