Clean Up Week The proclamation of Mayor Rousseau setting aside next 'W'eelc as “Clean Up Week,” 'we are confident, meets the hearty approval of everyone interested in civic improvement. “Cleanliness is next to Godliness” is an eternal truth and the efforts of every citizen next week will mean much toward making our city more attractive to our own eyes and to the eyes of the tourists and visitors w'ho will come here this sum mer. An attractive appearance is a big as set to any town or city. Unsightly objects lying around the home and business house detract from the beauty of a town. A little effort on the part of every citizen will remove the of fensive objects. Let us all work together next week, have a real cleaning up and make ours the cleanest and most attractive town in this section of the state.

But the end will be better than the l>e- glnnlng.” But the young Mother, was happy, and would not beUeve that anything conld be better . than these years. So she played with,her chil dren, and gathered flowers for them along the way, and bathed with them In the clear streamf; _ , and the sun shone on them, and life was good, your place In life, been an edur and the young Mother cried, “Nothing will ever cator of youth, have overcome of to ! year ty s Rev Saturday; shch questions as these: ■ “What lan who“ has jjeSd^ our wt “ Wkes . tlese ~ ;t-!yeanr they ■!yea mosb :aa aver f -RVlnl sffitl “In 'spite of the hardships h* hai epaitred, U. the fabi of.d^lfr f^hd^. ^adC Vobte; 'Ifiadwraate strange King. ^ , Ss haM'wIS and.^fl‘rt«^rltibe,day,:Iollpwlng.Jesus^^ lunas. oara winwsrs uuu* -^ . - . the future with-steady hahde, Inj domitable courage and a that saw beyond ^ils day.

What a Joy it Is for you to come to this hour realizing that you have played your part found A Great Work The enthusiasm and interest of mem bers of the various evangelistic clubs of North Carolina was never more in evi dence than at the state convention which was held in Mooresville a few days ago. That men—business men—who have their work to do and a living to make should take time to attend a meeting of this kind is e\idence that their hearts are in the Master’s cause. We have only to observe the great work which the Wilkes Evangelistic Club has done and is doing to get a picture of what laymen can mean to the church—all churches—in an organization such as that. Members of the local club have always been found ready to give their own time and to travel at their own expense when they are called upon. They have no de- j nominational aggrandizment in mind, but only true service to the church. These clubs are rendering a fine serv ice to the church and to the cause of Christ. Every church, we feel sure, ap preciates the splendid spirit of helpfulnc.ss of these men. be lovelier than this. Then night came, and storm, and the path was dark, and th^ children shook with fear and cold, and the Mother drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and t. 3 children said, “Oh Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come,*' and the Mother said. This is better than the brightness of day. for I have taught my children courage.” .■Vnd the morning came, and there was a hill ahead; and the children climbed and grew weary, and the Mother was weary, but at all times she said to the children, “A little patience, and we are there.” So. the children climbed, and when they reached the top, they said, “’We could not have done it without you. Mother.” And the Mother, when she lay down that night, looked up at the stars, and said: “This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. Yesterday I gave them courage. Today I have given them strength.” And the next -day came strange clouds which darkened the earth—clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped and stumbled, and the. Mother said: “Look up. Lift your eyes to the Light.” And the children looked and saw above the clouds an Everlasting Glory, and it guided them and brought them beyond the darkness. And that night the Mother said, “This is the best day of all, for I have shown my children God.” And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the Mother grew old, and' she was little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage. And when the way vvas hard, they helped their Moth er; and when the way was rough, they lifted her, for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill, and beyond the bill they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And the Mother said; "I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know that the end is hotter than the lieginning. for my children can walk alone, and their children after them.” And the children said, “You will always walk with us, .Mother, even when you have gone through the gates." And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her. And they said: “We can not see her, but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. Slie is a I.iviiig I’re.sence.” “All About It” The Watauga Democrat in its issue of May 3, 189-1, carried an editorial, which it reproduced last week, under the caption.

W^e learned that during the last .six years the firm has had to replace 218,160 bottles. Think of it! More than two hundred and eighteen thousand bottles destroyed in six years. One .’fourth of that number would be a liberal estimate of what would be consid ered “necessary” breakage. What hap pened to the three-fourths which had to be replaced because of careless and indif ferent handling of other folks’ property? Some of them are in cellars, sbme in the closet, some thrown away on the road sides and many of them were hurled with the greatest of nonchalance against some . rock or telephone pole. Yet not a one of those bottles belonged to the persons who handled them so care lessly. They had to be replaced at a loss of more than six thousand dollars. "We cite these figures not to call atten- ' tion to,the loss in bottles, but merely as f' an Ulu^ation of our proneness to treat • lightly what is not our own. Isn’t it a sor- of.ourselres?
