COPELAND BROTHERS, : Georpe, N. C. FARM FOR SALE ; We offer for sale the "Dia mond Grove'' farm, situated near Margarettsville, ;and containing 495 acres more or less. This is "a valuable farm. It has on it much pine and oak timber for ; cord wood and has about a two horse farm cleared.' For further information ap ply to Beidgees & Gaeeiss, .. Margarettsville, N. C. Appointing Thursday Nov. 24. as a Day of Thanksgiving. President Boose velt issued his Thanksgiving proclamation Nov 1, setting aside Thursday, Nov ember 24, "to be observed as a day of festival and thanksgiving by all the people of the United States, at home and abroad." ; The proclamation was issued from the State Department and is as follows: By the president of the United States of America. A. Pboclamation. It has pleased Almighty God to bring the American people in safety and honor through anoth er year, and, in accordance with the long, unbroken custom band ed down" to us by our fore-fathers the time has come when a special i l day snail oe set apart in wmcn to thank Him who holds all na tions in the hollow of His band for the mercies thus vouchsafed to us. During: the century and a quar ter of our national life we as a people have been blessed beyond all others, and for this we owe humble and heart-felt thanks to the Author of all blessings. The year that has , ciosea nas oeen one of peace within our own bor ders as well as betweenus and all other nations. The harvests have been : abundant, and those who work with their hands or brain are prospering greatly. Reward has waited upon honest effort. We have been able to do our duty to ourselves and to others. Never has there been a time when religious and charita ble effort has been more evident. Much has been given to us, and much will be expected from us. We ' speak of what has been done by this nation in no spirit of boastfulness or vain glory, but with full and reverent realization that our strength is as nothing unless we are helped from above, Hitherto we have been given the heart ' and strength to do the tasks allotted to us as they sev erally arose. - We are thankful for all that has been done for us in the past and we pray : that in the future we may be strengthened in the unending struggle to do our duty fearlessly j4 and honestly, - with charity and good will, with re spect for ourselves and with love toward our fellow men. In this great republic the effort to combine national strength with personal freedom is being tried on a scale more gigantic than ever before in the world's history. Our success will mean much, not only for ourselves, but for the future of all mankind;and every man or woman in our land should feel the grave responsibil ity resting upon him or her, for in the last analysis this success must depend upon the high aver age of ottr individual citizenship; upon the way in which" each of us does his duty by himself and his neighbor. - Now therefore, I, Theodore Roosevelt, president of the Unit ed States, do hereby appoint and set apart Thursday, the -24th day of this November,' to be ob served as a day of festival and thanksgiving by all the people ol the United States, at home and abroad, and do recommend that on that day they cease from their ordinary occupations and gather in their several places of worship or in their homes, devoutly to give thanks unto Almighty God lor tne benefits and as agnation and to beseech Him that in the future His divine favor may be continued to us. In witness whereof I have here unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United State 3 to be af fixed, ' Done at the City of Washing ton this first day of November in the year of our Lord one thou sand nine hundred and four, and of the independence of the United States the one hundred and twen ty-ninth. Theodore Roosevelt. By the President: John Hay, Secretary of State. Some Contentions Raised In Sup port of a New Medical Theory. The advance which medical sci ence has made in finding the pre vention and cure of many of the most terrible diseases which af flict mankind is truly wonderful. Once the proverb was that no body could escape love or small pox. 'But today smallpox is not feared as an inevitable or neces- Manly dangerous affliction. It occurs only occasionally and when there is a direct violation of the sanitary measures which all people are aware they should adopt. ; Equally so also is yellow fever a disappearing disease. This deadly malady is due to filth, mosquitoes, and unwholesome surroundings, and its ravages cease where the causes are remov ed. The plagues which formerly swept over all Europe died out with the installation of water plants and sewer systems in the larger cities. Typhoid and tub erculosis are now looked upon as combatable and avoidable dis eases; and this year some doctors are rating pneumonia in the same class. This new theory comes from New York. The efforts which have been made to abate the rav ages of acute afflictions of the re- piratory organs have led to the appointment of a commission composed of expert medical au thorities. This body of special ists have rendered an opinion that pneumonia is contagious that its prevalence is due to the germs propagated and dissemi nated in . street cars and public places, and that the enactment and enforcement of wise sanitary aws would save unnecessary deaths. The average death rate per 100,000 of the population in 1900 from pneumonia for cities of the Middle States was 287; for cities in the Iake States, 164; for cities in the Southern States,231 or cities in the Western States, 146; for Kansas City, 155; and or certain other enumerated cit ies, lbo. The largest death rate was 358, in Memphis, and the next largest was in ;New York City, where it reached 329. These figures average well up with the record madeJby consumption. So the theory "advanced by the New York doctors is true,' and pneumonia ' is in a fact a conta gious disease, there is now good chance that the scourge will be stamped out. Kansas City Journal.) Why .Every .Farmer Should Grow Pecans. Standing today in the great commercial metropolis, receiving this, the greatest of all the World's Fairs; and speaking to this National Nut Growers or ganization, I feel that wheels of progress are turning eo fast that thev make the brain dizzy; but a ew years have passed since this great industry was born, True, the pecan tree has been growing lor centuries ana dis pensing its lucious fruit to hun- Erry markets, but was like the hickorynut, ouly one of nature s blessings. A few years ago the idea was conceived that it was subject to great improvement if cultivated. Like all new and useful ideas, it V. D. R0UI2TREE & CO,. COTTON iFACTOBS & COLICS!

But the making of a dollar is not the only mission of the farm er. He has a higher and nobler calling. It is his privilege and duty to make a home. To create a place of comfort, of attractive ness and of beauty for his family. No other man can build a com plete home. Money will not buy some things City surroundings forbid the ideal home. .

Why should he I purchase and plant Pecans? There are many reasons why. Every rod of good fence on your farm helps to cheapen the cost of your matured hogs, beev es, sheep and horses. The better and greater the quantity of efficient fence on the farm, acre. If you do not raise stock, the good fence protects your crops and insures largest possible returns.

How many fathers there are in this country who never think o making companions of their boys cannot be estimated, and yet the need is always great. The father who invites the confidence of his boy, who makes acompanion o! him and who makes him feel that he can always come to him in' evil report, as in good report, will rarely have any cause to com plain of his son. The great troub le is that men, as a rule, know too little of their boys; but this would not be the case if they made companions of them as far as possible. Boys, as a rule, are afraid of their fathers. No boy should be afraid of his father. There should be respect and admiration for the father born ofjlove and duty, but it is an awful thing for him to be in constant dread of the parent, and yet this is the case with many of them. The man-who makes a companion of his boy, who partakes of his youthful pleasures, who can always find time to change views with him, has an opportunity to correct his mistakes and give the boy the benefit of his experience, but where there is no companionship between them this cannot be done. The father who never has time to sit down and talk witn ms boy about their own affairs, however simple may be the sub ject, makes a mistake which, sooner or later, he will discover, and the discovery is generally too late for correction. Men sometimes miss their chance to shape and mold the character ol their boys Bimply because they have neglected their companion ship. Greenville Herald.
