It spoke of death And pain and agony But the sacrifice and matchless love Offered there that day Have made the way of the shameful cross A glorious, shining way. Because He loved; because He gave; That cross of anguished pain Became a cross of wondrous Light, Of high, triumphant gain. Today, a cross with a double bar Beckons to you and me To join our hands in bringing gifts To help make mankind free From the scourge we call the Great White Plague By holding a Torch o(f Light And helping those who battle death To fight a winning fight. All honor to the radiant Cross! Let’s keep its symbol true— How far it throws its beams of light Depends on me—on yom , j —Contributed by Edna J. Paden, Kansas State Sanatorium. Buy Christmas Seals The little Christmas seals being sold by the Woman’s Clubs of the Wilkesboros have a deeper meaning than the Chrisl'mas cheer they represent. They mean that by big volume sales a substatial amount is raised annually for the purpose of financing measures for prevention of tuberculosis. There are many ways of preventing the disease which annually takes so many lives but which has a diminishing toll, a heartening fact brought about by the com bined eiffort of the great forces working for the good of humanity. There are literally hundreds of ways of preventing the disease and to carry on an effective fight the problem must be tackl ed from many angles. Not the least of these is isolation of cases as they are dis covered. Isolation generally means putt ing the patient in a sanitorium for treat ment or in some place especially prepar ed and maintained for that purpose. It is unfortunate that funds must be had to help pay their way in sanitoriums and in other places for treatment. Tuberculosis can also be prevented by providing sufficient food, clothing and shelter, especially for children. Under nourished children not properly clad and liable to exposure provide a fertile field for the disease. “The poor are with us always” and it is among the underprivileged class that funds derived from sale of tubercular seals are used. It is our civic duty to encourage the purchase of Christmas seals in order that efforts for prevention of tuberculosis may continue to be carried out successfully. The Meat Supply From reports which have come into this new.spaper, it appears that Wilkes county farmers have produced an abundant pork supnlv this year. “There are more hogs than there have ever been.” one man who has a regular job of butchering porkers in a nearby community said. It is just another indication that Wilkes people are striving to follow the live-at- home practices of farming and are trying to produce as nearly as possible their food supplies- , , , j. All the hogs are not produced by farm ers. however. The persons who are regu- Uriy employed here and live in the rural areas are making a pi^ctice of producing tiieir own pork and bacon. Many of them ULV that they do not realize any great re- JSJs^f-om their investment but find that lending a little for feed evepr month Stot thev get their manner that the expenditures are gradual Sid are not so fattening to the pocket- ^ipe of them say that buying feed and teSducing * hogs is a losing proposition SSSSalhr that when the hog is have the meat supply laid S2?^^?i»%ksynto bother about. iSiSp^’bewM* yroducinj me*t b, d«rh»d by th. ] who produces sufficient feed to grt^ the hogs and does not^have^to put out'e^ for feed.

This is significant in that during the past several months the company’s adver tising has been mainly through the use of radio and outdoor advertising. Now the company, which has been one of the world’s largest advertisers and perhaps knows more about that end of the business than many others, is returning to the newspapers, from the largest dailies to the small weeklies, to carry its sales talks to Mr. John Q. Public. > Things are happenii^ daily to show that the newspaper is still the best adver tising medium and that the message of the advertising firm is put belfore more peo ple and at less cost through newspapers than by any other method.

Borrowed Comment TWO OF A KIND (Kinston Daily Free Press) Thomas E. Dewey, militant prosecuting attorney of New York city, who came in to the limelight because of his successful offensive against entrenched underworld characters, has started a formal campaign for the Republican nomination. The Democrats have a man who has equal claim for recognition in the person of Attorney-General Frank Murphy, Whose crusade against graft and political corruption, resulting in the partial clean up of the Huey Long gang in Louisiana and the breaking of the Kansas City poli tical machine, notorious for its definance of the rights and will of the people brought national attention. As a matter of fact a campaign between the two Irishmen would be most interest ing. KEEPING FAITH (Statesville Daily) Colonel Edgar H. Bain, generalissimo of the “clean-up or close-up” campaign of the brewers and North Carolina distribu tors committee reminds that “Beer is a ten million dollar industry in North Carol'na and it best can be protected by keeping it free from objectionable practices.” One would hardly meet any argument about the rightness of applying that rule to any ether industry or activity, but indis criminate beer-gurgling has brought this admittedly harmless beverage into such disrepute that Colonel Bain surprised when he first announced the purpose of his organization to insist that beer dealers be law-abiding or re'fuse to sell them beer. The average citizen is still rubbing his eyes in unbelief, but slowly is becoming convinced when he sees beer dealers los ing their licenses after engaging in ques tionable practices. And that has happen ed here in Iredell. In the three months just ended, Colonel Bain has succeeded in securing revocation of twenty-six licenses in Buncombe, New Hanover, Mecklenburg, Wayne, Gaston, Iredell, Catawba, Brunswick and Hay wood counties. He warned a number of other dealers to clean up their affairs— or else. “When a dealer violates the liquor law, says Colonel Bain, “we petition for revoca tion of his beer license. We want to make certain that this person cannot move to another place and sell beer. We do not want a law violator selling beer.” If and when Northl Carolina decides to try state-wide prohibition again, there will not be the same uncompromising attitude toward the sale of beer, after this unusual, healthy interest. Which probably is what the beer people were thinking about when they employed Colonel Bain to take after beer dealers who are a bit bareless with their morals.
