STOKES IS NEARER TO GREENSBORO With Little Effort and In A Very Short Time People Of Guilford May Be Transported Into the Stokes Hills. Greensboro Daily News. The completion by Forsyth county of a road between Belews •Creek station and a point near Hairston's siding completes also a chain of highway projects that put Greensboro within about an hour of the hill country of Stokes. The two counties of Guilford and Forsyth and the state have all contributed sections of road. Within a few days the more di rect route via the Greene highway will have been finished; it will no doubt be open today, although unfinished. It was open last Sun day. The alternative route out of Greensboro is via the asphalcic road to Guilford College thence with the fine Guilford soil road to Oak Ridge. The essential part of the whole achievement is the state highway, built by the two counties, across the Belews creek gorge, completed soma months ago. It will be a pleasant thins: t> bear in mind,when the long hot spells come that in so short a time and with so little effort one may be transported into the midst of these small mountains, which neyertheless give altitudes equal to those of Waynesville and Ashevile.

Community Life Is What We Make It A community is ideal just in the degree that its citizens as individuals are self-respecting, considerate, loyal, and sympa thetic; and its business interests intelligent, cooperative and en ergetic. There is nothing mys terious about the progressive and forward-looking community for these terms are convertible with human nature at its best. When business rivalries beget harsh, unjust and malicious antagon isms. not only is community pro gress arrested, but social stand ards are made to suffer and per sonal attributes lose their virtue. To enter fully into the spirit of these verities, it is only necessary to recollect that the community is but the individual amplified. A community is what its aver-| age citizen makes it, for leader-1 ship can do nothing more than) leaven the lump, and the stand ard is low or high just in the j degree that the lump is receptive | and capable of rising.—Wilming- j ton Star.

NO SUCCESS WITHOUT SAVING Young Men Of Today Seem To Have Their Minds Set On "Flivvers" and Mean Liquor and Good Time. University News Letter. Recently in a little town in the Lower Central South, surrounded by excellent farm lands, only half-farmed, I asked a local busi ness man why they were not to a greater extent realizing on their agricultural possibilities. "I believe the trouble is with our young white men." he said. "They seem to have lost the sense of thrift and the ability to save money. They nearly all seem to prefer a job of some sort about town, and whatever they make, | nine out of ten spend as they go. j Instead of saving and buying i land and helping to make our idle ! acres productive, their thoughts ; run mainly to flivvers, bad whis ! key, and what they think is a I big time. In consequence, our I farming is left mainly to Negro ! tenants, without competent di rection, with the results showing |in an extremely unattractive] I countryside." I believe this man laid his j J finger upon one of our most; 19erious economic sins. — lack ofj thrift. When old James J. Hill 1 | said, in effect, that the index to; 1 material success is the ability to save money, he spoke a great! 1 truth. There is, as a rule, simply , no material success without the j ability to work and save. Instead. ! however, too many who can | afford only to walk insist on flivvers,and those who can afford only flivvers, ride in six-cylinder cars. We need more six-cylinder earning and saving capacities, rather than our present predom inance of flivver incomes and muiti cylinder appetites. -B. L. Moss, in The Progressive Farmer.
