The January figures will be tvyice as high.. So will every month of 1915. . “A wai^paralyzed world is looking to us to sell; it all the food and maiiufacturei'S we can spare. "Made ?n U. S. A.” is the hope dt other nations for 1915. We can girdle the world with our pro ducts. V That much is settled beyond doubt. , “It means work and wages for thousands i»\y idle—and work ICR& wages m^n a big buying power at home. “Everywhere throughout the country we are picking up t^ threads of prosperity. Mill owiiers are'calling tifeii ilien back furnaces are lighting up anew, factories beginning to turn wt increased product, - “Men of confidence of gift and of tarsightedness have forgot ten 1914, with its troubles. It is in the past. 'Iliey are looking to 1915. It is new. It is full of hope—:of opportunity. “We begin it with a basic conditions as sound aa a gold dollai’s; with out own 100,000,000 people ready to engage SiPiritedly in the peaceful conquest of the world’s trade, determined to win it' for all time. “We have only to be equally determined about creating a home trade in order to make that what it should be. “Everybody agrees that prosperity is on the way to the United States. Opinion!? differ only as to the time of its arrival. “Why -wait? Why not fix today as the time: and }Dlan, and work, and struggle for it NOW? “Prosperity doe,« not come by %vaiting for it. The tomorrow that you wait for never comes. Today is the time that counts; today is the gong that strikes twelve. “‘Straight ahead,’ is the starting signal for the new year. The road i."! not cleared of obstacle.s. No worthwhile road ever is. It is your work to clear it—to look bej’ond the obstacles and vision the sure reivai'd of effort. “Mr. Big Business M;-n. Mr, Financier, give up tho.se doubts that have loaded you down through 1914! “If you don’t the Little Biisine.'s IVIan will get ahead of you before 191-5 is out. “He is today the advance agent of prosperity, pushing ahead everywhere, taking a risk now and then, never looking for a dead certainty, but moving steadily on toward bigger things i'!I the time. “He does not talk hard times; he talks good times. “His is the voice that the country wants to hear, that th'i whole world is listening to and heeding.” Ur. iwd Un.

If Road Law is Changed, do you favor Contract System ? If not the Contract System, what is Your Idea? Are there people in your tovmship who do not work, nor J. O. Foy i. again editor of the “>Ic- bane I.eader," a local weekly. Last fall he sold the paper to otRer parties here, feeluig that his baalth forbade his being con.nned as closely as oiTive work required. Since that time, se veral have taken theii' stand at tiie eilitornial wheel only to yield it ty other hands aflej- the voyage through o!ic or inoie issues. During :he ab sence of the old pilot, a variety of talent has been called upon to diiw. hi.^ adishivcwig kogkiS d ,of fiokbow the movements of the local news craft: pedaj^agical, legal, business, political, etc.; none of which stood the strain, of whatever kind it w^as, many weeks. Your correspondent; has not been given an authoritative statement of the re-isons for relinquishing hohl of the steering wheel of the "Leader," but severai suggestions Iiave been jr.ade. it has been hinted that perhaps the steering gear was out of order; hat possibly enough oil was not furn ished the machinery—whatever thit may mt'an—or, may be, t-nQUgh fuel was not put into the engine—^what ever that indicates: that a teacher can handle a school, and a lawyer can look after his practice, and an insurance man can work insurance, and a reiil estati; man manage houses and land.*-., and a politican can direct Dlunicipal affairs, each with more ease and to greater advantage that either can run the editorial page of a weekly paper. These street comments maV: Iw mere prod'jcts of the imaginatfon. The fact remains that several wrote, and then stopped WThing; that M!r. Foy is again editor, though he is a weak man ■physically still. The general hope is, that he may grow stronger till health and strength have been fully restoteiU Tli^. ,.r,TTiTm,nitw hirrs AO^tn to do his part in boosting Mebane, “the biggtst little town on earth.” O We have felt that there are other crops that would pay the sonthern farmer better than cotton at its best price. Still that is a matter for th& farmer to decide for himself. 0 Our idea has been that prohKtition was intended to prohibit, as £ar as possible, and it wonid seem that any law loolcinf; to tWs end would be wel comed by all real prohibitiomsts. 0 Of courie the Legislature could do a great deal of work in forty days, and yoj we havs known st to sfemain in session the full sixty days and leave mighty little to its credit.
