What silences we keep year after year W ben those who are must near to use and dear; We live beside each other day by day, ; And Bpeak of myraid things, but seldom say The full sweet word that lie just in our reach, Beneath the commonplace of common speech. Then out of sight and out of reach they go These close, familiar friends, who loved us so! And sitting in the shadow they have left, Alone with homliness-and sore bereft, We think, with vain regret some fond word That once we might have said,, and they have heard For weak ai d poor the love that we expressed Now seems, beside the vast sweet unconfessed; And slight the deeds we did to those undone And small the service spent to treasurer won, And undeserved the praise for word and deed That could have overflowed the simple need. This is the cruel cross of life, to be Full visited, only when the minstry Of death has been fulfilled, and in the place - Of some'dear presence is but empty -space, What recollected services can then Give consolation for the "might have been." ...... The Housekeeper. OUR INDUSTRIAL FUTURE We Must Build Upon Natural Founda turns Must Rely Upon, Ourselves - ? to Develop Our State. In response- to an invitation of the Board of Aldermen and the Trustees of the Graded School of Burlington, President Geo T. i Winston addressed the citizens of Burlington last night on the ''In dustrial Future of North Caroli na." He discussed the industri at development of , the State ... un derth ree propositions: . 1. We must build 'upon natur al foundations and grow along lines already established, multi plying,' enlarging and extending existing industries. 2. We must, rely upon or selves to develop our own State without - expecting much help from outsiders, either in' capital or labor, - 3. -The youth "of the State must be properly educated for its in dustrial developments. Taking up these propositions seriatim, he snowed that agricul ture is naturally our greatest in d us try; that intensive agriculture must take the place of extensive; that the one crop , system mut yield to diversification; that tools, machiaerjand intelligent labor must supplant mere -m usele and d rudgery; that ou r bright boy s must be educated to stay on the farm and not to run-.away from it; that labor must be made hoa orable, by - making it skillful and profitable; that, nature study, ag riculture and manual training should be taognt in . our public schools, especially! in the ru ral cbools; and that industrial ed uca ttoo, if incorporated -in our pub lie schools, will wdrka re vol u tion in a single generation. ' L He showed that outside capital has never come iu to North Caroli oa except to share the profits of industries already well establish ed; that outside labor has come in only at exorbitant wages to do work which lack if skill prevents jour own youth from doing; that we have given far more to out siders than we are likely to ever recei7e from them; that our watchword should be, "North Carolina's resources belong to Nortb Carolinians, and the youth of North Carolina should be edu cated to develop and possess them. "-'News and Observer. Laughed out f it . Never be laughed out of any thing worth holding on to Some peuple are laugtted out of their principles They are ashamed to stand up for the, right in the face of a smile. Others believe in themselves only so far as some one else behevps in them. They van be laughed out of their ambi lions. Trey give up the idea of amounting to anything if aa ac qcaintance seems to think it ab surd. No - man . ever yet made his mark who did not have to face ridicule. What do you suppose the men who split rails along wit' Lincoln ' thought abou t his ambitions? - What ' shouts of mocking laughter would have greeted young Garfield if as he trod the towpath he had whisper ed to his companions the yearn ings that filled bis boyish heart? Everyone has to meet the test of derision. Those " who 'can be laughed out of their belief and i heir purposes are counted amougj th world s failures every time o Young People's Weekly. Support The Governor. The State of North Carolina has had all sorts of men in the gubernatorial chair, tie re have been great men aud there have been small men, but the citizens of t he S tate a re p roud to clai m that many of them have been em inent in a high degree. ' Some of them have been mere politicians; that is it has been self and not tne welfare of the people that was theircontrolling motive. But of all the long . lino of men who bave rilled the posUioo no one of them has thought less of self than the present Governor, and no one has set the cause of educa tion so high s he has done aad is doing. ' " --If we recall the political speech es of Governor Aycock during tue last campaign, we will re member that in each and every ose of them Lis chief pledge was that the boys and girls of the State should have the opportuni y to secure an education. He promised tbisoverandover again and now he is doing allin his pow er to fulfill his '..word. 'He. is not of those who keep the word of promise to the ear but break it to the hope. ; No doubt-it would be an easier task for.tbe Governor to spend his time mending his own politi cal fences than in urging for ward the cause of education. Per haps it would not be for his heart is in this' work and out of the full ness of the heart the tongue speaks The statistics on educa tion, of the illiteracy of the State have been wide spread, and when the next figures are prepared we must see to it that we have climb ed up several rounds on the lad der of knowledge, ' We believe that the citizens of the State w'ill stand by the Gover nor in this, matter and that they will not weary in well doing. The big rally in Greensboro of recent date shows tbat there has been no let down as yet in the determi nation. But like it was in Athens when it became too tiresome to be en dured that a man should always be called The Just so it may be with some of us, that we will com plain that the Governor is riding his hobby to death, that be is al ways harping on one string. When the one string gives out the pure strain of general enlight eumen t and the hobby has been ridden to the goal of education then the Governor will find him self a new issue.

'','- Yet it is the opinion of the most coiuprehensivu students of the question that the best inter ests of the South will be found in the development'of its agricultur al resources. . There are. then several objects- to be attained, cnier among. which are a compe tent, personal and 'intelligent management by owners, them selves, a general sub division of large landed, estates and the in coming of experienced farmers from other sections to take up these sub-divisions. In other word s, smal I farm s should take tfie place of large ones, and pro prietors the. places of tenants!

Value of Factories. No bttter illustration of the value of manufacturing enterpris es to a community can be had than bf comparisons between the value of raw materials a&d the same in a manufactured form There are over f0.000 bales of cotton sold annually on the Golds boro market, which ateight cents a pound means the distribution of $800,000 among our people. According to an estimate mad by Mr. D A Tompkins, of Char lotte, if this raw co' ton were man ufactured into sheeting it would be worth $2,400,000; if converted into ticking it would represent a value of $3,200,000; if made into madras it would sell" for over $5 000,000 The difference between the va! ue of raw materials . and the finished products represents tht amount of .money paid for labor, taxes and dividends. The money paid for laoor, tax "S and dividends is, in a great measure, distributed among the, merchants, and the latter class should, as a matter of self irter est if not of public spirit, ehcour age every enterprise having for its object the ct nversion of raw materials into manufactured prod' cts.

Iu the section of which Greensboro i the centre, the shipment of pool try to Baltimore, Washington and other large ci ies has assumed mammoth proportions. There 1b no reason why it should not be carried on largely in the Western and Eastern sections of the State as well as in the Central part. As illustrating how it will pay, this incident is tak n from the Grt ens boro Patriot: "A farmer while in a generous mood gave his daughter two chick ens aad bade her ' 'run away aud be a good girl.' He promised if she would look after them he" would feed the increase four years. The girl, as it were, planted these two chick ens and the result, according to the father's statements, are somewhat astonishing. He says she has-$64 iu the bank and some 200 chickens which he has to feed. According to the farmer's calculation, his daugh ter will own the farm at the. end of four years and will be charging him rent for living on it."
