CARD OF THANKS Words cannot express the measure of our appreciation of the kindness and constant attention of neighbors I and friends during the recent illness j and death of our darling husband ' and father. We would mention espec ially the Florence Mill force, those who gave such beautiful flowers, the Spindale quartette, pall bearers, flower bearers, and all others who showed such deep interest and sym pathy. Mrs. E. W. JORDAN and daugh ters, EVELYN and KATHERINE. Recleaning and treating tobacco seed before planting this winter will help produce stronger plants for setting next spring. "Nothing but pure bred dairy sires in Gaston County" is the sign that will soon be displayed by farmers of that county. WHY NOT THINK How many men. think you, are there who would wager their last dollar and even mortage their fu ture, on the result of a prize fight, a horse race, presidential election or a baseball game? Gamblers there are in every clime and in every age, but even among the of these sportive gentry there are few in number who allow the heat of excitement to oversway itheir judgment when it comes to putting down the last sou. Fortunes nave been won and lost by the turn of a card or by the length of an equine nose, but cases are rare indeed of men who tossed their entire present and future into the lap of Chance. For men are by nature conserva tive. The sporting instinct which comes down through the ages from the times when life itself was a daily gamble with fate, may be lying domant or may be very much awake in the individual. But with a few ex ceptions, it is controlled by the thought that if we would live tomor row, we must not risk all today. These are true words and yet there are certain reservations to be made concerning them. They refer only to men who think, or to those who hire others to do their thinking for them—for there are both kinds of men. A broad indictment this. And yet there are facts to bear out the state ments. To think means to exercise the faculties of judgment, conception or inference. Do all men do this? Many do, of course, else we would not be enjoying our present state of high civilization. But that there are many more who do not—except in slight degree—is fairly evident. If all men used their thinking power to its fullest extent, think you that we would h&ve only five per cent listed as successful, the remaining ninety five per cent graded from fairly able to complete failures? If thinking were more universally indulged in many of our present day evils would be eliminated or at least minimized as to be neglible. —Ex.
