I TWO FOREST CITY BOYS
ON LENOIR-RHYNE TEAM {
j Hickory, Apr. 21.—Two boys from
'Forest City, N. C., have played im
portant parts in the unusual record
I that the Lenoir-Rhyne baseball club
I has made thus far. With "Chuffy"
' Hughes, a freshman catcher leading
) the hitting and Lloyd Little, a sopho
j more pushing him for second place
•Forest City has two boys to be proud
'of. Hughes broke into the lineup af-
I ter the veteran "Red" Winecoff was
! forced fijom the lineup and did won
derful work in the two games he
j played in. In catching his first col
j lege game he played errorless ball
and in his first trip to the plate he
i plastered a long blow against the
! left field pailings for a two bagger to
' send i nthe first run against Emory
• and Henry college. In his other game
i against Maryville college Hughes se-
{cured three hits in five times at bat,
I a triple with the bases loaded a
j double and a single. At present he is
j hitting the agate at the fast clip of
( 500. Little, an older player, is prob
j ably the most dependable man in the
mountain bear lineup. He started the
season at second base but is now play
ing leftfield. He bats in fourth posi
tion and is the most dependable
hitter on the club. In the Emory and
Henry game he hit two long home
runs. He is one of the best outfield
ers the local college has ever known
and he along with Hughes was seen
in action Easter Monday when the
bears took to the field against the
«
Guilford Quakers.
The Lenoir-Rhyne club has an un
usual record. Five games have been
| played and all won. A grand total
I of 58 runs have been scored for an
'average of almost 12 runs per game.
The club is made up of a bunch of :
sluggers. Lenoir-Rhyne boasts of
victories over Springfield college of

■SUCCESS AND FAILURE
| OF INDIVIDUALS
Shelby, K-5, Apr. 21.—1n ord«
to give politics and saving the State
ia slight rest, this communication
shall deal with success and failure
of individuals.
| Most people appraise the accom
plishments of mankind by the token
of the dollar mark. Old hags who
have marriagable daughters, are al
ways talking about morals and man
ners of a suitor, and claim to not
be influenced by a partiality to Mam
mon. But if the son of "Old Money
Bags" is *a contestant in the matri
monial Lists against a young man of
character and intelligence, it is al
ways decided so far as this greedy
old crone is concerned in favor of
money. The fellow who inherits
lucre is pampefred | and petted b>
fickle and vaccilating society until
he becomes spoiled has no desiie foi
education, and spruns his supeiioi»
bv arrogant conduct. But the alleg
!ea plebeian slowly and surely foiges
! his way up the hill of difficulty un
til he is a pronounced success. In the
: meantime, the pampered pet of wit
ness society squanders his partrimony
i and becomes a derelict upon the
j shores of time. Then the former
! flattering syncophants with their pro
jgeny; regard his plight with holy
scorn, and he realizes a hell on earth.
The touchstone or monetary suc
j cess is proclaimed from the house
' tops as industry and peise\eiance.
i This does not always work. Money
|is a good thing to have, at a
i comil!steci cy. Solomon inveighed a
! gainst great riches, and also the cQn
• dition that caused his poverty to
'make him a thief. But conditions
l have changed since the days of Sol
| onion. Now the rich do the stealing,
and subsidize law-making powers to
'make thieves respectable and their
! vocation honored. In a colloquy be
i tween a circus clown and ringxnastei,
the latter declared his brother dis
' graced the family by stealing and
[was sent to the penitentiary for
iten years. The clown confessed to a
| fellow feeling, and said he had a
'brother who had disgraced the fam
: ily by going to Congress, who was
! still stealing.
; We learn from Holy Writ that
I most remarkable character that ever
trod the buring sands of Galilee or
other segment of this globe, taught
his followers of fishermen and re
venue officers by parables. The rag
bag, and bobtail of the purlieus fol
lowed him in hope of a four-coi 11-
ered meal, but incidentally heard the
Divine Carpenter speak as never man
spake., and His wisdom still goes
thundering down the t»f
ages.
Experience and observation have
taught observant mankind that a
toy must choose the proper vocation
or you will see the misfit of a rouifd
boy in a square 'hole, or, a square
boy in a round hole. The man en
dowed with a gift of spellbinding or
atory is not. likely to win success as
a capitalist nor an artisan, and, by
the same token the mechanic or thp
machinest will not win fame and for
tune as a teacher, a minister of the
gospel or a lawyer. A man endowed
as the professor of a sawmill, is not
likely to captivate an audience witn
the thrilling notes of the violin.

I experience. A boy of effeminate
j features and dreamy expression was
left an orphan by the inscrutable
decrees of Providence. He was
grudgingly, provided a home by a
grasping, ignorant uncle, who wrest
led with the stubborn glebe in a prim
itive style, known as main strengtn
and awkwardness. The Uncle was a
rugged type of strength and endui -
ance, who. regarded improved meth
ods of farming as vanity and vexa
tion of spirit, and execrated "book
farming." "Little Willie" had no
taste nor desire for farming, and
was a source of annoyance to his
superstitious and ignorant relative
and patron. By the fortunes of war, j
a stranger, . bearing a violin case, j
called at the home of the backwoods,
Uncle. He called for a dinner, and
the Aunt provided a meal of corn,
dodger, swine bosom, buttermilk,
turnip greens, and coffee that would
float an iron wedge The visitor par-i
took of the repast and after a short
'rest and some entertaining conversa
tion, inquired the amount of- his bill.
"Oh," said the old Uncle, "jest play
us a few tunes on yer fiddle and'
'we'll call it squar." The visitor was
a nioderately skilled violinist, and
' evoked some dulect measures from his
instrument. Uncle and Aunt enjoyed
lit fairly well, but. "Little Willie" was
I enraptured. The traveller played
i three "numbers" adapted to capacity
| of his auditors, when the Uncle want
-1 ed to show him a fine hog. The trav
eller cared nothing about the hog,
■ but placed his violin in its case and
| went out to behold the menagerie,
i As they came back, they heard a vio
; lin giving evidence of superior skill
fis if in hands of a master. "Have you
a good violinist who lives near you,"
| inquired the musician." "Not as I
knows on," said Uncle Silas." Well,
i a master has that violin" said the
musician. As they entered the room
itheyjhad left, they saw "Little Wil
j lie" playing. He seemed startled and
confused, but the wandering minstrel
insisted upon an encore. He asked
: Uncle Silas if Willie could be spared
| from the duties of a farm. "Consarn
; him yes!" said Uncle Silas. *'He can't
Ichop he can't lay off a straight row;
| and never seems to study about what
, he is doing." "Well" said the visitor,
j "he is a divinely gifted musician, and
i I wish you would let him go with
j me." "Take him on," said Uncle Si-
I las, "but I never seed a fiddler that
i was wuth a durn." Little Willie tied
j up his wardrobe in a towel and went
! out upon his life work. He was train
j ed by his patron then sent to a con
j servatory in New York, after which
! he finished in Italy.

jly with Uncle Silas and Aunt Mar-
Igaret. Age, infirmities, a worn out
J soil, placed him in financial embar
rassment. The sterile farm carried a
, mortgage equal to its value, and for
j closure stared him in the face. One
j day a letter bearing two complimen

jthe violin in a town of 20,000 in
i habitants, five miles distant. They
• hitched the old mare to a decaying
ambulance, called a buckboard, drove
to the town, handed in their reserv
ed tickets, which they found sold
for five dollars each. The auditorium
j was crowded with 5,000 of the bon
l on. The musician appeared and was
i greeted through the performance by
jthe bon ton, who caused the audi
{torium to rock and reel with ap
iplause. When the performance clos
!ed, the musician approached the two
j humble, old people, extended his
i hands in salutation, and said:—
"Good evening Uncle Silas and Aunt
Margaret, don't you know me?"
"No," said Uncle Silas. "Well I am
Little Willie, and I am going to spend
the night with you." "Wess", said
Uncle Silas, "I calculate we can all
ride in the buggy, but. it will be a
tight squeeze." "Oh, I'll come in my
limousine," said the celebrity. He
+ and spent the night, and next
morning adroitly asked Uncle Silas
as to his financial condition. He
| learned that $2,000 would liquidate
Shis debts, and wrote a check for*that
j amount, which he tendered to the
grateful but tottering Uncle Sila*.
"I am afeard yer can't, afford that,"
was his feeble remonstrance. "Oh,
I made that much tonight, "was the
reassuring reply, and my press agent
has twenty appointments ahead, all
in which I am guaranteed $3,000 each
appointment."
Could Little Willie realized that
much farming under the old fashion
ed methods of Uncle Silas? No more
than the old Uncle could have fea
tured in a successful concert with
the entrancing notes of the violin.
