LOST SEAPLANE RECOVERS COURSE IN FOREST CITY Citizens of Forest City were much interested in the actions of what must have been a lost seaplane hov ering over the city Monday morn ing. The big two-motored plane first flew over the city at a high altitude, and the pilot evidently discovered the big sign on the Hewitt building, for he circled and came lower and when he evidently got his course from the large arrow pointing north and discovered that he was flying over Forest City, he circled higher and made a bee line due North. The plane was the N. C. 4 and presented a pretty picture flying in the air. It is thought here that the pilot had gotten lost, as the morn ing was unusually foggy, and the actions of the pilot seemed to verify this surmise. The great large sign on the Hewitt building was placed there by the Kiwanis Club a few weeks ago, ex pressly for the purpose of inform ing airplane pilots of the name of the city and to give them proper di rection from this point. The letters are very large and easily discern ible and a large arrow points north. PRESENT DAY YOUTH. Fundamentally young people of today are little different than the young people of thirty or forty years ago. But they are living in a different environment, in a time charged with different ideas and a different outlook upon life. All this has its effect. Some of these differences in char acter and outlook are to be com mended. They evidence signs 'of prog ress. Today young people are less gullible than the youth of times past. They are inclined to question assertions and arrive at conclusions of their own. But some notions that influence their conduct and may color their future lives are not to be seriously advocated. Any man who has occa sion to hire help is conscious of this different attitude that may spell dif ficulty for the future. Work, today, is looked down up on. The young man or young woman is too desirous of a "soft job." Too many want to start well up on the ladder, never realizing that most conspicuous careers have started at the bottom round. Men who have any achievement of note to their credit can look back upon their early lives and see that the experience they gained at the very bottom of the business in which they are engaged has proved most valuable. Until one knows the small est detail of his business he cannot direct its affairs with maxi mum efficiency—he must always be dependent upon the judgment of somebody else. Until one has discip lined himself to hard work by years of struggling to attain the top, he cannot apply himself with full vigor and energy to the harrassing details that beset every step of his business life. • This sounds like an old story to the boys and girls of Forest Cit.y to whom it is directed, we realize. But it is fundamentally and everlasting ly true. Unless you are willing to accept it today, future experience will drive it home with painful force. QUICK ACTION ON MIDNIGHT CHICKEN THIEF A colored man made a raid on Dr. C. S. McCall's chickens one night recently, getting six fine ones. Next morning he" started for Bos tic to dispose of the chickens. 'Of ficers captured him before he reach ed that town, placed him in jail and before night the negro was given a sentence of four months on the roads. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Shuford and Miss Mayme Martin were in Char lotte Saturday.
