that thev are making themselves

the police board, the water commis

IN "THIS SOLEMN HOUR"
New York, Feb. 2. Charles Ev
ans Hughes, who was guest of hon
or at the annual dinner of the New
York Alumni of Brown University
here last night, declared every loyal
American would stand behind the ad
ministration "in this solemn hour"
without a partisan thought. His dec

feet singing "The Star Spangled
Banner."
!"Wa are all Americans tonight
standing behind our president on
whom this great responsibility rests,"
said Mr. Hughes. "It is not a time to
embarrass in any degree with private
utterances those charged with this re
sponsibility. They have the facts ;
they have the duty to perform. They
have the sincere, loyal co-operation
of every true American. The exi
gency of no nation can fix the limits
of American rights.
'"My friends, in this sober hour
we stand loyal sons of Brown, realiz
ing the privileges of our American
citizenship. It is an hour of test
that will show what America is made
of. We are desirous that whatever
is done shall be done coollv and de

Repairing a Specialty.
Hickory, N. C.
There is a reason why vehicles made by the Piedmont Com
pany have a reputation (and are guaranteed to do it) of run
ning lighter than any other makes.
The Company started as a repair shop (in 1877), and while re
pairing the different makes of wagons, the good and bad points
in their construction were carefully noted,- an4 discussed, with
the experienced teamsters. Consequently the combined knowledge
of the different designers, with that of experienced wagon users
was obtained, and this, along with many experiments laid the
Jfoundihon for our present wagons. Since that time a great
r : r.-r :.r ;r-vements have boen made, but LIGHT DRAUGHT

These reasons for aMvert'sincr tA

may say that it was largely the pro

have known the Advertising club read

seriously the place of advertising in

welfare,
Take my own case: Here is an ed
ucational engine, a library set up and
kept in motion by cash paid by all
citizens. It is run that it may help
them. It can help them only if they
use it. They can use it only if they
know of it, and only if they know of
it can it help each one at its own
spe'-ial point of need. !
This then, is obvious. That en
gint the library should make its
existence and all its special power
known to every citizen. It cannot'
content itself with mere existence.

probably will be placed on trial at
Coleman in May for the killing of
Hutler, who was shot to death at the
sarnie time. iMrsi. Spannell was
killed during an automobile ride with

TAKE CARE, LITTLE MAID
Do you know, little maid, when you
open your mouth,
That away to the east, to the west,
north and south,
On the wings of the wind, just like
foees or like birds,
Fly the tone of your voice and the
.sound of your words?
Do you know, little maid, that your
.mouth is the door,
All the words you will say, be they
fewer or more,
Are imprisoned within, Some, are
sweet, pleasant words,
Which will sing when they get out
like caroling birds.
There are others so cross that they
only displease,
When they get out, believe me, they
sting like the bees,
Closeljf wa,tch them, dear maid;
when cross words stir about;
Shut the door on them tightly, don't
let them fly out.
