Berlin, Sept. 29.?German repulse French attack, llave captured 50,000 French. Victory is certain. Aw, what's the use. Some headlines seen in Eastern Carolina newspapers. Wonder if some of our clever scribes can tell the papers that are represented: ?'Everybody now favors Sanitation Law." "Police arrest six for riding on freights." '?Cat swallows fish and ewims ten miles." "Fair is going to bo a big success." RIDICULE OF CATHOLICISM. "Had the Pope full power over all the European nations, his pratings for peace might prove of 9ome avail, but then wo question if war is not preferable to abject Roman Catholicism." The above sentence conclude dan editorial in Monday's issue of the Greenville Reflector, which dwelt with the effect the Pope's word would have in ending the European war. In that sentence, tho Reflector makes light of a religious sect, and ridicules its highest dignitary. It use? the term "abject" in referr ing to Caiholiui.sw, the synonims of which are "degraded," "servil." "groveling," "despicable," and "sunk to a low level." It refers to the efforts of the Pope towards securing peace as "pratings." The sentiment voiced in that sentence rightfully deserves the adjective and its tifnotiim* which it uses in critici.*ing a religious faith. It is almost unbelievable that a modern newspaper?supposedly liberal in its views?should make such an assertion as does the Rc flector. What right has it to hold millions of pious aud truly re ligious people up to ridicule and scorn? Their faith is just as good as others. They have as much right to their belief as other churches have to theirs. What is more, there is more true piety, more ardent belief in the doctrines of religion in tho Catholic church today, than there are in all tho other churches combined. In attendance, in devotion and in support, the people who believe in Catholicism set an example which Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists and all the other sects might well follow. With reference to the Pope and the war in Europe, it is doubtful whether his word will have much effect in bringing about peace, but he is. nevertheless, trying to do so, which is more than can l?o said of the high officials of the other churches. The writer does not happen to bo a Roman Catholic, but if he were. he certainly would be as proud of his church as the most devout Baptist or Presbyterian is of his. He would have a right to be. The Catholics have done untold good in this and other countries. They are an active sect and they deserve commendation and respect instead of the ridicule and contempt with which the Reflector treats them. "Yes, we took the children to the animals."?Xcws and Observer. Good!

He stated that every store ifl the city was alive and hustling to beat itn com petitor an<l rhat they were bringing every resource into play in order to l?e able to do so.

T rt I addition to this, the progressive, merchant* are sending circulars through the mail and advertising in the local paper in order to in duce new customers to patronize their establishments. Ft isn't the man who keeps the largest stock who is going to do the most business in Washington this season. It ix the won who let* the people know what he has to sell them. Tie must advertise in every possible way he can think of. That is th* only plan he can follow, if he hopes to succeed. We are glad to say that the leading stores of the city are realizing this and that they are fast forming the habit of carrying regular space in the local paper. There is no question but that they are deriving lienefits through their advertising campaigns. Some merchants, however, are either too old-fashioned or too slow ?o realize what advertising means. They consider it money thrown swav. In spite of the fact that they must sec that the other stores are doing a larger business than they are, they refuse to modernize themselves.

If when you receive The Star this morning you faced a screaming headline on the front page announcing the fact that a two-billioa dollar fire had occurred in North- Carolina last night, attended by the loss of a dozen or a score of Kveaf ^ou would be startled. Then, when you read the story of the fire, if1 you were told that the confla gration and the loss of two billion dollars' worth of property, with the terrible loss of life, was due to carelessness or negligence, your wrath would be aroused and you-weald-bo ready to declare that some body ought to be sent to the.StateVprieen for life or to the electric chair. - However, when the highest authority in the State on fire losses. Commissioner of Insurance James B? Young, tells us thst "approx imately $3,000,000,000 worth of property is destroyed by fire in this State annually, and that fully two'thirda of this loss is preventable,' wo pay little attention to it and it makes little impression on our minds, and but little more impression is made when Commissioner Young declares that "even this loss, enormous as it is, dwindles i d importance when we consider the loss of life caused directly by fire." Yet, what is the difference between the destruction of two or three bil lion dollars' worth of property and a doaen or a score of lives in one night and suffering the same loss in ono yearf These thoughts are occasioned by the proclamation of Governor Craig sotting apart Saturday, October 9, as "Fire Prevention Day" in North Carolina and urging "all the people to a proper observant of this day in obedience to the law of North Carolina," as enacted by the General Assembly of 1015. The Governor urges the public schools of the State and tho municipal officers to give proper and. formal recognition of "Fire Prevention Day" and its meaning, and requests the citizens generally to give special attention on that day to tho condition of their premises, tA the end that the waste and loss of property and life by fire may be reduced in this J3tate. A duty dictated by economy and humanity, the Governor declares, is the prevention of the needless destruction of the fruit? of our labor and of human life.?Wilmington Star. NEW LIFE. Governor Craig, who of late has been spending considerable time looking over the farms up around Raleigh and talking with th< farmers, says that the South has been inoculated with new life and that wo are going to make back this year what we lost last veer. Tl looks as though Governor Craig is right With eotton selling for eleven cents per pound and indications that it will go higbor and with the crop of tobaooo unusally largo and selling for good prices, there is no reason why we should not make back the money lost last year. As for new life, well it might be supposed that such prosper ous conditions would put now life into anyone.?New Born Sun. Fictitious Conversations "Are you the editor!" "Yep."
