The Sophia barn-yard golf course has lost something of its interest since J. Pluvius has been so much in evidence. The two work together admirably- to mar the surface of the earth. WTien the golf leave result is neither beautiful nor sani tary. There is no objection to the game but if those taking part would use a little more care in refilling the holes caused by the horse shoes, our village would be more attractive to the passer-by and more pleasing to the local dwellers.

History of .Soft Drinks There is an interesting story about how the lirst soft drinks happened to be made. Back in the days of the American Revolution a man named Townsend Speakman was running a little drug store in Philadelphia. He supplied medicine for Washington's army, and was pretty well known. One day a doctor asked him to till a pre scription of carbonated water. Speak man succeeded in compounding the concoction. The doctor's patient liked the new water. Soon one patient after The most exasperating individual in the business world is the person who, when asked for information, gazes at you with a lost look and saVs dumbly. "I dont know." You do not mind a bit if the fellow, whom you expect may be able to answer your querry, happens to be ignorant, provided he can tell yon where to find out or if he shows some interest in helping you to find the answer. For a fact, one sure way to get ahead in any business is to establish a reputation for being able to answer questions. When a man's fellow workers get into the habit of asking him for information when they are ' stumped, ne is surely on tne road to a better job. In almost every organization there is at least one such fellow. You can ask him a question that is a mile out of his line- probably he can't answer it, but the very fact that he is unable to answer whets his curiosity, and he becomes as interested as iou are in getting the facts. He ,lfes an idea where and how to find opt, and he gets busy in the search. , On the other hand, the person who blackly says, "I don't know," and shows no inclination to find out, goes lown several points in your estima- I'm proud to be Republican, you can not get my goat, I do not have te. think at all, I only have to vote. "The King is dead, long live the z King!" as said in ancient days, Say what you please of Harding but give Coolidge only praise. I'm proud to be Republican, our party's views no doubt Are sometimes so confusing I don't know what they're about, But for the Grand Old Party I am working day and night, I don't know what we stand for, but I know we re always right. Jim Barrett For Davis Jim Barrett, who edits a labor pa per in Charlotte, has let it be known that he is pulling for Davie and Bryan. He says, "I want every laboring- man in North Carolina to know that a vote for LaFollette is a rote for Coolidge and Dawes". Mr. Bar rett says if there is a worse pair on, earth for labor than Coolidge and Dawes he has not had opportunity to exchange cards with them. another passed the word around and, tion, and after a couple of such ex- before long, Speakman had lots of calls for the new medicine water.
