It is generally understood that with in creased prices cf labor poor people have beea fana really better than when prices were low aad work hard to get. But now aad then there is presented a picture which touches even the hardened man cf the world. Touches him because he under stands, even if he does not admit. Mother love is said to be one cf the stroofctt loves La all the world, and it is manifested in all females. To defend her young Gordon Cuming hat said that the tigrest is the fiercest wUd beast known, and wt all have teen the mother hen fly into the face cf death to defend the wee chick which wat dependent co her. The mother bird will dart Lata the fict cf c 'lender who comet to rob tf nest. arvan angry sow knows rvo fear if one attempts to interfere with her htter cf little pink-nosed pigs. And in the human race all history is full cf the moth er's devotion, the mother's love. The pic ture cf the heart-brckca mother following her wayward sea to the gillews, kneeling with hun in the felon's cell starving for hia. dying for him. ia fimiliar to all who have traveled far the path cf life. . lai recent cumber cf the DinviKe Reg ister we read thia startling item startling beccuse it hardly seems possible that a mother would consent, because cf poverty, to part with her firth and blood. The Reg ister says: t Who wiats sevea-yeir-old boy or a four-yeir-dd girl? Mrs. Rose Shruggs. a widow living at Coa Floyd street, has such a boy and such a girt whom the is willing to have some enc legally adopt who can better provide for their cemfert than she has been able to do. The mother is not an uanaturil one. but is rather moved by conaidera lions cf the welfare cf her children primarily and caly incidentally of her own. She hat found it a hard struggle under ex isting cost cf living to provide shelter aad suite nance for her two little ones, and has cow reached a point where she considers that it would be best fcr them if the could L-.ture the comfort, welfire and educational opportunities to which children art eatitled. Chief cf Polict Bell is responsible fcr the statement that this Is the atti tude cf Mrs. Scruggs with respect to the two children. Any person desiring to adept either cf the children legally and open the door cf eppert unity to these young lives aad rescue them from fsmry may communicate with the mother directly cr through the police department, f Hard lines, these, tq know that poverty bids a racther part with her rery own. Per haps she has net been properly advised; perhaps she is harboring a d cm on that does not exist. TURKEY GOBBLES. Turkey gobbles ca its peace terms, and the peace propositions art so numerous that it verifies the old story cf crying Peace, aad there la co peace. It will cot be uatil Kaiser Bill is absolutely put out of bualaesi that we can lock for peace. No doubt Germany wants peace cow at almost auy price, but when it happens Kaiser Bill it cot going to have any say in the matter. That la the only kind cf peace-that will mean peace, aad America understands this. o They say if it hada't been for the war we would have had a new city hall pretty soon. But it is for the wir, aad that just now is furnishing an excuse fcr most all things. Fcr Las ta ace.

' , "With a suddenness which brought a stunning shock to the people of the com munity the final summons came to Rev. Charles Wesley Byrd. D. D- the beloved pastor cf the Central Methodist, church cf Ashevilie, Thursday, Jinuary 3. "Death always bnngt pain. Not that there it always an uncertainty concerning the future, but because there is ever a dread cf earthly separation- Broken ties, formed throughout years cf intimate association, leave in their wake bleeding hearts. Ashe vilie had no thought cf the coming cf a call home to Charles Wesley Byrd. The even ing before be had been at his post of duty. Thursday afternoon he was to fulfill anoth er engagement. He wit busy about hit Matter's business and the summons came. . "Strong men trembled when the tele phone told cf the stroke which suddenly brought a shadow to the fimily of the Methodist pastor, and before even the first news had reached many homes the final moment came for the passing over the river cf the soul cf a min big in heart, strong in faith and great In love. "Close association with Charles Wesley Byrd evidenced the genuine concentration of the man. His mind bad been widened and deepened; his soul had jjrown sweet "and tender; his character had developed and ripened. Men with whom this preacher bad come In touch went on their way glad and stronger. There wat no littleness in his disposition, no narrowness in his expression and no shallowness in his faith. True to the principles cf his denomination, honored by his fellows in the church, and recognired as a leader in Southern Methoeism, Charles Wesley Byrd wis always tbegentle, happy, courteous and helpful man of God. His devotion to the announced doctrines of his, church did not separate Dr. Byrd from his fellows of the ministry who did not agree with him. His tolerance of the opinions of others, his sympathetic disposition toward . those whose eyes had not seen the light from the same angle, and his willingness to co-operate with every movement calculated to better lives and encourage humanity drew men to Charles Wesley Byrd. The nation how the man loved it. To him. and bis frequent expression demon strated It, the country called for the highett and best in every man. His soul was afire with desire for democracy ultimate mas tery of the entire world. He believed in America and Americans, and on several oc casions be made it very dear that, if it were possible, his very life would gladly be given for the support of the national principle. The community is poorer. The going away of the friend, the counselor and the comforter of men; the man. known for his sane and stablished manhood, reaves a void ' In Asheville's life. His wife and son have the sympathy and love of the entire com- . munity..,Tbe church' suffers, but with the 'know ledge that other churches cf different faiths but of the same aims suffer. with it, "It is not 'goodbye Charles Wesley Byrd ; it is not good-bye. Your life lives on In Ashevilie. Men will remember and love. Your soul, immortal, lives or yonder. Ashevilie men and women look forward to a meeting again with you In that life and land toward which you ever directed them, both by word and by example. Good night, friend of man! It has been a joy to h?ve traveled a bit of road beside you. FOR THE SENATE., It Is announced that Miss Rankin, the . Con great woman, will go back to Montana and run for the Senate, and the men folk up there win all be for her. One of thete days there will be a struggle to see whether the women or the men have the' majority in Congress, and when the women do get the, majority, which will be sure to happen some time cr other, the chances are that some leg islation never dreamed cf in this age will be put over. Woman has been thinking for hundreds cf years what she "would do if she were a man. and if she finally gets what has always been termed the mans job in the law-making business she will do a chore worth while. And that day is cot far distant. New York state is going to send down some rep resentatives pretty soon. There arc too many bright women there for all of them to . vote for men. It ism New World a trans- formation is on. , THRIFT STAMPS. ' The campaign for the sale of Thrift stamps is on all over the country, and while the campaign hatfn't yet reached a point of universal interest, it Is said that thousands and tens cf thousands of them are being . sold. The dtixea who saves a few dunes and with them buys a Thrift stamp is he p Ing his country and at the same time belp ' ing himself. Clubs are being organised where men agree -to buy one Thrift stamp a day. some one in two cUvs, and in this way it is thought that-universal interest will finally be aroused. Unde Sam needs many millions, aye. bil lions of dollars, and every time one cent is contributed it means that much, and if every titiien will buy a few Thrift stamps the grand total will be some very large fig ures. In a country where there are a hun dred million people, if each one starts in to , help out it doesn't take long to get together ' a bUIion dollars. Just now we spend mil lion t an hour to carry on thewar. So let every man think about his Thrift stamp. Also every boy and girt All of us can come in on this co man is too poor to do bis bit. CAMP GREENE TO BE "BIGGER. The news is that Camp Greene, at Char lotte, is to be increased seven thousand people. That will make a dry within itself. - aad Charlotte feels that it Is an ill wind . that blows" good to nobody. These camps Nbring money into towns, and while many people think they have a demoralizing in fluence, why shouldn't they, if money is the root cf all evil? HITTING THEM HARD. The ruling is that all theatrical companies -carrying excess baggage and extra; cars: must quit the road; that car service is the , one thing necessary now, and if it happens, whit will the'people do? True, they have the"movies; the filmfccme by express and could," perhaps, come by parcels post, and the crowd can look on the mute pictures and draw its own conclusions. But in the theatrical world there are hundreds of thou sands cf people who know no other line of business: What will they do? Thousands of old men and old women who entertain the people will be left alone and must take : . up knitting. The - circus will perhaps be tabooed. The papers are crying out against race horses; the pulpit is saying there is no need of the midway at fairs; and so.it seems that with our wheatlets days and . meatless days we are to have circusless years and theatrelesseeks. and all the time what will the railways haul after the congestion is over? , It appears that the government had prior ity on many things, thousands of things, and the regular channels of transportation became congested, literally choked, and all terminalt and depots were filled with, goods lone In transit, and the immediate effort is to clear the tracks. If all competing passen ger trains 'are to be taken off; if the tracks are to be cleared regardless of route and regardless of which company does the busi nets, just so it is done, certainly it will not take long to dear things up, and then per- haps traveling shows will be welcomed to make the wheels move. It is said that out of New York hundreds of trains go daily, all starting for the west . or the south, and many of them run empty -. cars. The idea is to concentrate and let as. few trains as possible carry the passengers. ' That is to say, if three hundred men were starting south and three" or four.' "different lines were there with the elegant Pullman coaches, all but one train would be cut out, and the passengers would tumble into that t one train, and the extra locomotives would be called into play to help pull freight If thia were done, certainly it wouldn't take long to dear up traffic nowbelated, ..and with a hundred per cent, increase in freight facilities looks like the tracks could be kept dear. However, if the circus doesn't come, and if the bam stormers are put out of business, , , no one of us can help it. Wcall have faith in General Director McAdoo to do things just as they should be done. o- ' A GOOD RULING. Many soldiers who have enlisted left be hind them unpaid bills. Creditors accord ingly have been sending the bills to the sol diers at camps and in many instances ask ing officers to ussist them la getting their just dues. The war department has very properly ruled that it isn't running a collec- - tion agency and that those who have per sonal bills against soldiers must manage, their own affairv; that the government will not allow its officers to assist in collections. Many a' man who owed a till and found himself in camp perhaps couldn't pay it, and perhaps on his email salary he will not try to pay it until r iter the war. 0 NO LUMBER BEING CUT. It is said that because of the scarcity of hands no lumber is being cut in North -Carolina this year. Up to the cold snap none had been sawed, and during the last thirty days it would have been impossible to saw it, and the sawmills here and there have been idle, which suggests that lumber will be lumber next year. The same is true as to the wood situation. There is an abun dance of wood ready to cut, but the farmers in Guilford county insist that it is impossible , to secure help enough to run the farm, and a dozen in this office within the last- few days tell us that wood is a vay scarce arti cle. One farmer in this morning says that ". in his little neighborhood of twelve farmers . ten young men have gone to war, others . " have gone to munition plants, and the farms are left without any help at all, and. the question is: How will they get in wheat crops and tobacco crops next spring? It is really' a more serious situation than the city ' folk realise, and something must be done tc get bdp to put seed in the ground, or there will be a small crop for the next year, and that means something no one wants to think about. A WORTHY ALLY. The desire to "get rich quick" is by no meansconfined to the United States, or, for ' that matter, to the .Orient, and neither is the effort to cater to that desire. That both are , active in Tokyo is made evident by a circu-. lax issued from the Wall street of that city recently, and reading: To the wide-awake public: One who want to make money why not try stock business at such a rare extraordinary chance? Even a fool his pocket is swelling up every day. "Why? Be cause he is daring it blindly., Awaiting your orders, more or less, yours faith . fully, Okino Yonesabeioro, stock ex change broker. Bargain money ad vance. . All of which proves that the little yellow man is an apt scholar and worthy to be the ally .of his big brother in the' struggle for American ideals of high finance and inde pendence. " ' THeTrALEIGH MESS.. . Collector Bailey writes the Raleigh Times and accuses it of trying to insult him and abuse him and make him appear as a local boss, and the Times replies in big type and rather puts it over Bailey. Too bad when a' politician refuses "to take and give, and give and take. However,' in these zero days a little. hot stuph comes in 1 nighty bandy and helps conserve fuel as welL - While Greensboro has had a few cases of fuel shortage, it is to our 'credit tlsat great cities likei New York have fared ' mfinitely" worse. Wherefore, New York should at 4 nee start a municipal woodvard. NO GREAT HURRY.; -; V The County Commissioners promised the Committee interested that, they would again hear the citizens on the proposition to establish a county welfare league: and em ploy a whole-time superintendent at their .January meeting. The Committee having, this important matter in hand has Conclud; ed that the first of the year is a bad time to go before the Commissioners, they have so many things to look after at such a,' time; therefore it has been decided to postpone the matter until perhaps the first of March. In the meantime the Committee is gath ering facts and figures going to show that what Judge Harding has said was a fact in this county; that the Commissioners could not make abetter investment, if nothing. but dollars were considered. Also different Or ganizations which wanted to assist in pre senting the matter have not yet had time, because of weather conditions, to get in; their reports, and many prominent citizens of the" county will not be able to attend the meeting because of excessive cold weather, which has put. them far. behind with their : farm work.. , At the meeting in March the citizens will again go before the Commissteers and ask for action. They only want a part of the fund necessary, citizens pledging them . selves to raise something like twelve hun dred dollars. , In the meantime the hope is that the Com- ' missioners will find time to thoroughly in vestigate the need for a counlty welfare league and be in position to make the small appropriation asked for by so many of our ' , citizens. Every day the police court is fur nishing evidence that a whole-time county superintendent would find ample work to do; that, he, could save to Society many weak and erring ones who are hastening to destruction. The local columns of the paper today furnish such evidence, and almost every day cases are reported that should ex-, cite interest along the lines suggested. -. V- WONDERS NEVER CEASE. , ' When Judge Hylan was being abused in his campaign for mayor of New York it was - freely claimed that if he were elected New York would be notoriously wide open. But it happens that Hylan has appointed as Po lice Commissioner a man he never knew personally, but a strong man named Bugher, and in a local story we read this : . Mr. Bugher made it plain that "pull," political or otherwise, would have no place in the department so long as he was at its head, and issued a warning . against any attempt to brinsr such influ- ence to bear. He also expressed him self decidedly that there would be no . "wide open town." Mr. Bugher said that he had been informed by Mr. Un termyer, speaking for Charles F. Mur-' ,phy, that Tammany Hall desired no . part in the running of the police depart ment and that it was the desire of the responsible leaders of Tammany that i , the organization be free in every respect y - r . 1 a "". - r .1 rr 1 . irom idc aaimnisxi auon oiue anairs 01 . .

GUILFORD'S MEDICAL MEN. Members of the Guilford. County Medical Association did the right thing and the square thing in choosing a woman for their president this year. In these days of service and sacrifice, when women arfc being called upon to bear their full Ishare.of the world's burdens, it is but fair that they should share in the honors so hardly won. The Guilford doctors, than whom none are in position to better understand woman's contribution to their profession, have meas ured up to their opportunities as broad-, minded, thinking men; Twentieth Century men, who realize the age in which they live. V KEEPS ALL GUESSING. Russia just now keeps the whole world gueSsing. The latest news from that scram bled mess is to the -effect that Kerensky is yet the strong man of the empire and that in the fulness of time and the right time he is again to be the recognized leader. It is believed perhaps the wish is father to the belief that . Russia is going to turn down the German overtures for peace and that Germany will be forced to Jceep her sol diers where they can look after the three million uniformed Russians-who may do something. In this event It is said that Germany will 'send back froui the western front the soldiers she sent there; and if this happens the Italians, French, British and Americans will perhaps do a chore which will decide the issue.. Therefore Russia is the one country on which the eyes of the whole world rest, and if she does something quickly it may hasten the end of the war. L " - MIGHT MANAGE TO GET ALONG. The Christian, Science Monitor rises to re- xmark that "no . reasonable person in the United States objects to conservation of the national game of baseball, but the magnates of the sport might as well understand that the nation can exist, until . further notice, with one league and fewer games. The na tion, for that matter, could pull through until the return of peace without any pro- 'fessional leagues or professional games' , o .. . With a fifty million dollar money crop or illicit corn likker in the state; .why should . a farmer buy Iibertyionds? No reason in the world, and Collector Bailey certainly knows the number of illicit stills, 'which he conservatively places at $hree thousand five . " ." : - ' .. . .
