C., JUNE 5,1913 WHY NEWSPAPER MEN MAKE ABLE PUBLIC OFFICIALS. Frequent comments are heart regarding the unusually larg number of newspaper men wh« have come into public office dur ing the last year or two. Fron Josephus Daniels, secretary o the navy, on down through th greater and lesser legislative bod ies and executive offices we fin newspaper owners, publisher editors and reporters surprising!* numerous as representatives CJ the public. In the United State* Senate and the house of repres entatives there are many journa ists. In the executive depart ments at Washington are foUnd many men who won note with pen and pencil, such as James-A. Edgerton, chief purchasing agent of the postoffice department, who spends millions of Uncle Sam's dollars every year,. Edgerton has smashed the time honored theory that a poet and writer could not be intrusted success fully with weighty, intricate bus iness affairs. Several governors are knights of the quill, and one of them re cently demonstrated that news paper training is an admirable preparation for public service. Gov. James M. Cox, of Ohio, who when death dealing floods swept mercilessly over Ohio, Indians, etc , rose to the occasion in mat terful manner and led the won of saving life and property am in restoring order. There seems no doubt that th> increasing number of newsprfpei men in politics and the succes; with which they work for th« people are due to the fact thai their training brings them iii constant contact with the muiti tude and teaches them to know the people's wants. Their.brairu are naturally adapted to*, men and grasp varying conditions, and thus theyare enabled to lean the intricacies of legislati re prac tice more quickly than the avei age man. SAND CLAY ROADS. We made our first trip over th sand clay road from Hickory fc Brookford last week, and we wen very much struck with the. ini provement over the old road. The people beyond Brookfor* are greatly enthused over th prospects of extending this roa« to the county line. This is a mucl traveled highway, and no road ii the county needs improving mort than this one. The survey ha* been made and from what we Car learn the new road will be run just as the survey was made. It will be of interest to those • who have worked so enthusiasti cally for this road to know that every Man along the line will, join in to help get this work over be» fore the heavy hauling begins in the Fall. Our people are proud of the good roads that ate being built in Catawba County, and well thej may be for good roads are one q! the most valuable assets to the upbuilding of a county as well at of a state. People of other coun ties are beginning to take notic* of the good roads being built ii our county. We hope the gooc work will continue till every roa in Catawba County will be equal ly as good as the ones betweei , Hickory and Brookford, and be tween Hickory and Newton. Tne Police force and the Sher iff of the City of Hickory will al ways make any arrest that they are called on to make, but it its impossible to do this without a de sciption of the party wanted. For the information of the Officers of our City we will ask that you &1 ways give a description o"the man you want arrested. I would ask the Editors to give notice to this effect in their papers. Shake off Your Rheumatism. Now is the time to get rid of your rheumatism, Try a twenty-five cent bottle of Chamberlain's Liniment and see how quickly your rheumatism pains disappear. Sold by Moser & Lutz and Grimes Drug Co. adv. Hickory Boy does, well at Pingham School. We areglaji to note that Mr. Hobson Sigmon, of Hickory, who has been attending the Bingham School, located near Mebane, in in Orange county, N. C., for the past year, has done well. He obtained a grade of good, in de portment and studies during the session, and was awarded a cer tificate in Freshman History and Freshman Penmanship. .We un derstand that Mr. Sigmon made a very marked improvement all of the year in a number of ways, and that he has been invited to return again to the Institution ] for another session. This is a privilege not accorded to all by this famous old Institution. It is certainlv gratifying to see our •joys do well at school, especially it Bingham. Wednesday Night and Saturday Night. Wednesday night is observed as the night for the weekly meeting of pray er and praise by all the churches in Hickory. It is well that it is so. And jerhaps in no town are tue meetings >n Wednesday night, better attended thau in Hickory. Let us hold this light sacred for the prayer-meeting. There was a time not many years ago when no other meetings were held on tills night, but gradually I have notic ed that the tendency is to forget the prayer-meeting, and other meetings ire arranged for this night and for the hour of the prayer service. When the moving picture shows were first intro duced tftey did not open on Wednesday night, untill after the hopr for prayer meeting. It is not -so now. Many church people pass the prayer service and go to the picture show. These things ought not to be. Let directors of corporations hold their meetings some other than Wednesday night* L,et our clubs give their reoeptiohs ou some other night. Let our young peo ple select some other night for the church wedding. The churches con tribute more to the prosperity, peace uid happiness of our town than an other institutions. Let us devote one night in the week and one hour of that nit;tit by gathering in our accustomed traces of wot ship in prayer and praise. It will pay the town materially, social ly. intellectually and religiously so to do. Again, the manner in which Satur iay night is observed has a marked ef >ct upon the manner in which the uord's Day will be observed. If Sat urday night is a time of dissipation un til midnight, it will be hard for the ersou so engaged to be in the Spirit u the Lurd'a Day. Let us who must rule, dou»o early Saturday nignt, if ■ tot Saturday afternoon. Let us who re shaded at the barber shops-do so s early as possible. Let our moving - re shows ciose at a seasonal))* hour. me maintenance of our moral air - iigious life and ihe piop»-r obseiv mess of Jiod's commandments tfleai uore than, anything else to our be oved ci y and let us as church people •vatch these things with the greatest care.

I recommend it to anyone for pains of any kind." SLOANS LINIMENT is wood for sprains, straihsf, bruises, cramp or soreness of the muscles, and all affections of the throat and chest.

The high prices 6f horses and feed, the rush of spring work and the need of deep plowing has forced T. B. Lenoir to order an oil traction engine to do his plow ing, discing and other farm work. He owns a large farm in Yadkin Valley and plans to do sbme real farming since hitherto he has been unable to secure teams when he nee Jed them. This engine is 15 horse power and is the same make as those nea r here. Plans are being pushed to give a demonstration in road work and plowing at Lenoir next week. Much interest is shown in this forerunner of progress and effi ciency. Rev. Mr. Garvin, Missionary to Chile, Visits His Old Home. Rev. J. F. Garvin, who has been a missionary for the North ern Presbyterian church in Chile for the past 29 years years, came in Saturday to visit his cousin in Newton J. A.
