"Beware' of such men their disease is fata. A lie continually repeated comes no nearer the truth 4than- when it was first told. Telling false, things over and over will not change their color only to make them lacker. So stop the old false things that come from your life and begin a new false step or statement or utterance. Some Dark r TOnffs There are things blacker than night some of them have been at work in this lty for some time past. Some of the men that have been promoting these dark things think that they can brow beat individuals and a com munity into silence and passiveness. These same men think that a few threats that they can keep back many things that might come out against them. This paper does not care to ever speak about individuals except in the best terms, it had much rather not be forced to do it but a community cannot be allowed to suf fer for the sake of a small ring that seeks to ruin. In the center of that ring is the red fire of a mad man, and he is usiHg every tool of the devil that he can secure to strike at men newspapers the thing would self at once. The journalism of New York city has been dragged to ths lowest depth of degradation. The grossest railleries and fair discussion have gone on unchecked. One can not help sympathizing with the decent newspapers. . y ft is iatedV tim lor de&a ! peo ple everywhere to refuse to look at such rotteness. The voice of the best minds to day is against such corrup tion and it must go or it will ruin. People are apt- to fall or rise to" th level of the matter which they read, if'" the matter is corrupt, the charac ter win soon be corrupt, if the mat ter is high and pure the character will tend to go upward. Be careful never to let foul printed matter enter your home to poison the minds of people. And if you care for your community and nation do all that you can to put such things down. Why don't some of the infidel cri- f with whom he ls mad- To try to un ,c f th THhio mfli aermIne "e character of men or of tics of the Bible make a better one? It is a bad thing to take the crust from a child unless they can give him a better piece of bread. It Is worse for the Infidel to thrust at the Bible and the Church unless he would give something better in their places. The lies of hate grow out of date and make men sick. Change is the thing that keeps up consciousness and even the mud turtle at times wants a breath of pure air. Then rise to the surface of a manly life and think on and tell the things that are true. It will make all life sweet er and better if you only do this. a man is blacker than night in its devilishness, but o try to disrupt churches to satisfy a personal Bpleen can be no other work than that of a demon. You may put it down as true hereafter that unless this hellishness is stopped that there will be some real light turned on this dark ring. The Tar Heel building may bum but other papers will run and the truth shall be told. Would you make your town better then lift up your brother, never pull him down. If you are mad whistle, don't curse. If some one has done you wrong hope that he wont do so a"ain. When wrong yourself be man enough to quit it Love your etown, jour people and right but more than all these love God and things will go better. Moral Leaders In any town whether they be preach ere or teachers or business men the moral leaders should rise up and put down the disrupting factors in its midst. The moral leader who ever be may be or what ever is his calling in lite that is not striking at the greatest evils in a communit is sure a poor if not a careless leader. If it is the Near Beer Joints it is the moral leaders duty to strike them. If it is the dissipation of manhood because df bawdy institutions they should hit that evil with all their In Honor of Mrs. J. B. Griggs. The Tuesday evening Club enter tained on Saturday evening at the home of Mrs. Dan Morgan in Main street, complimentary to Mrs. J B. Griggs on" the eve of her departure for her new home in Iowa. Mrs.Griggs is a charter member of the club and by her charming personality has en deared herself to each member. The home was beautifully decorated for the occasion and the evening was a delightful one though a thread of sad ness ran through the whole. Miss Sophy Martin the senior member pre sented te Mrs. Griggs in the name of the club a lovely set of gold pray er book markers, the presentation was a gem, a few beautiful words touch ing expressed, Mrs. Griggs emotion prevented a very audiable reply. f- ter the game of bridge beautifully ap pointed refreshments were served. Mrs. Griggs aeparture is deeply re gretted by a wide circle of friends. She will be greatly missed in church work as well as in the social life.

Foul Journalism Truth from some centers of mali cious falsehoods would indeed be as unnatural as the flashing of light ning from a clear sky. It is natural for a pole cat in madness and fright to throw off his foul smell to make men sick and just so is it the na ture of some jnen to throw off foul things from their corrupt lives. But it does seem that they might try to rise a little above the low level of t - i sucn animais and try -to clean up themselves and live above such stink ing pasiBions. Citizens, stop, look, listen for there is danger rh the corruption that is being poured out on this community. Is; it Knobbs Creek water that is poi Boning this town? Or is it the breeze from the Pasquotank that would sink your men and your town in ruin? ffe is not personal enemity more than anything else that is damaging this City? Property has lost value, 'men have lost work and conditions are not good for general prosperity. The cause is not hard to find and neither will it he hard to remedy when the men come together and stand firm against personal spleen working it self ut in Stech a wav as tn ininvn Foul, corrupt and debased journa lism is one of the great curses Of this age. More sections than those of the large cities are infected by this evil, it is coming to be a real social malady. It ever flows from dis torted imaginations, foul minds and rotten hearts that seek to create sen sations by attacking men of reputa tion and character. Such journalismis without character and therofore. can have no regard for truth and it "must therefore by virture of. its very na ture live on lies, scandal, slander and debasing sensations of its own creation. In a late expression from Mayor Gaynor of New York is found the thought of men every where who are thinking of the well being of the nation and her communities in re gard to foul journalism. When he says: "Such journalism is, of course absolute defiance of the criminal law and it did enter my mind to publicly call on the grand juries and the disr trict attorney to protect me from it, hut I was weak and feared people would say I was thin skinned.
