The distinguished woman who made the literary address at the closing of the State Normal college at Greensboro may not have got off much poetry and classical references to literature, but she certainly told the young ladies some sensible and Mse(ful things. The most striking one was the statement that wasteful ness is not only sinful but vulgar and; common. Those ot the present gen eration who- imbibed the sentiment of the preceding generation which was necessarily clothed in an atmosphere of frasruahtv. have never auite. erot 1L ' J 1.1 1 J I 1.1 i. ' waste was sinful. But somehow the idea of sin held not much check for the present generation. Expense and display and waste and extravagance might go on if it were merely sinful. Sinfulness might go hang along with other more rigorous doctrines of the past. But if waste is vulgar and common, that is something else. Of course it is vulgar and common and has always been, but nobedy has been saying so. If the necessities of war should teach us that they will not be in vain. . And the ladv SDeaker told some thing else, close akin to the other. ! That is that she had noticed that the expenditures for dress were always on a rising scale, a bull market, so to speak. Now, if a man had said this, we men folks might have been afraid to repeat it. But it was not) a mere man. It was a woman, and one speaking with apparent authority before a body of women. So to speak, it is ex cathedra. Did the lady mean to say that the women might take a spoonfull less of sugar and a dollar's worth more of hose? Did she mean to say that or but what's the use? The point is that if this war is going to put all the men to work, as we devotedly hope it will since we have a war, what should it do for the wo men in the matter of useless and ex travagant expenditure? "Plant the Whole Face of the Earth in Corn" Mrs. Lindsay Patterson in Progres sive Farmer. Really it seems as if the least as well as biggest and finest thing we "Little Gardeners" can do this year is to plant the whole face of the earth in corn and depend on that almost entirely for our bread so the wheat may all go to the starving ones across the, sea. Personally, I prefer corn bread anyhow, and everything that corn can be turned into is good. I even rejoice in the popcorn balls with the children, so it's no hard ship. Then, too, eating corn bread will kill a whole flock of birds with one stone.' It will enable us tn "live at home" and reduce -the -.high, cost or living which we bring on our selves by paying some farmer West or North, who has no more sense than we havef to raise food for us that we could easily raise for ourselves. We could save the freight, and the rail roads could turn their, attention to coal and other necessities that must be hauled. We could keep our money at nome except, plenty tor the for eign missionaries. (Patience knows we don't ever want to be so economi cal that we let the servants of God suffer.) I fairly lie awake at night thinking of places to plant corn or Clay peas.

Notwithstanding the turbulence of the times, the prospects for the Sea side Assembly at Wrightsville Beach are brighter than ever before. One reason for the hopeful outlook is that Dr. John Jeter Hurt, the pastor of the First Baptist church of Wilming ton is on the spot, and Dr. Hurt is a man who has never been able to spell the word fail. And the program com mittee has done excellent work in providing a list of speakers that, would make an assembly a success at' Pembroke or Parmele. The Assembly! opens June 28th and -will wind up on' the 4th of July with a stirring ad.! dress appropriate to the occasion by the most engaging public speaker in North Carolina Governor Bickett.! On t.ViA Hat wft nhearva cnrVi ttavHAa' as A. T. Robertson, D. D.f of Louis ville, one of the foremost Greek schol ars in the world. Rev. Wesley Brun er of Raleigh will deliver several lec tures on evangelism, and it would be hard to surpass this selection any where in the South, as Dr. Bruner was for years the head of the Home Board's evangelistic force. The pas tor's conference will be in charge of Dr. Vines of Charlotte, Dr. Hale of Lexington, Dr. Greaves of Lumber ton and Rev. W. C. Barrett of Gas tonia, and Rev. C. D. Graves of Wake Forest. Conducting the Woman's conference such women as Mrs. W. N. Jones of Raleigh, Mrs. H. T. Pope of Lumberton, Mrs. H. C. Moore of Raleigh, Miss Ruth Caldwell of Lum berton and Miss Bertha Carroll of Raleigh will appear. Special" lectures will be delivered by Rev. R. F. Y. Pierce, D. D., of New York City, Rev. H. M. Wharton, D. D., of Batimore, Rev. John Roach Straton, D. D. of Norfolk and Rev. B. D. Gray, D. D. of Atlanta. The music will be in charge of L.E.Wolslagel of Asheville. Such a feast of reason and flow of soul has rarely been offered to our neiple. Mr. E. L. Middleton our Sunday school secretary, is glowing with enthusiasm over the fine pros pects and if this bill of fare will not draw a crowd to Wrightsville they . cannot be drawn. The hotels will not over charge. Arrangements have al ready been made, and the prices of entertainment will ibe reasonable ranging from $1.50 to $3.00 a day. We sincerely hope to see a great out pouring of our peoplevto this fine beach the finest" on our southern coast. Sunday School Reading Rooms at .Wagram Charity and Children. Pastor W: E. Goode of the Spring Hill church, in Scotland county, has established reading rooms in two of the Sunday school rooms - of his church at Wagram, to be opened ev ery night in the week under the aus pices of the church. Papers and mag. azines will be contributed. Saturday ard Sunday nights the rooms are closed, but every other night these reading rooms will be opened to all of the people in the town without re gard to denomination, where they can spend the evening in quiet read ing. Mr. Goode, who resides near the church, will supervise the mat ter himself. It is a great idea and; we pass it on for the benefit of oth er pastors.
