Only a few on "The Boyhood of Christ," a. subject i itj pernaps never Deiore nanuwu m j -ion county, because of the fact that the Bible gives very little of the boy hood life of Christ. Dr. Belk preached what might be termed an imaginary sermon, draw ing his conclusions of the kind of life Christ lived during his boyhood days from the character of his life after reaching his maturity. He declared that the only thing necessary to ar rive et a correct conclusion as to the kind of life the Great Teacher lived during his boyhood days is to minify his life in' after years that a perfect boy always makes a perfect man. Upon this proposition, Dr. Belk, founded a wonderful sermon to par ents, urging careful and prayerful training of the youth of the land. Ha touched strongly upon heredity and made the statement that a strong man or woman must have a strong par entage, that moral stamina is hand ed down from father to son and from mother, to daughter. He pictured Mary, mother of Jesus, as a beautiful christian character who was brought up in the Temple of God and dedicat ed in early life. He believes that Je sus mother taught him and that her only text books were the bcripture3 and Nature.' two of the most wonder ful studies we have today. He thinks . Christ's early training served to fit him for the arduous duties of nfter life, and he laid down the proposition that the church, the Sunday school and the christian home of today should be such as to make .adult con versation unnecessary. :v Dr, Belk believes that the possibili ties of the properly-trained child arts unlimited, and clinched his idea with the unique statement that a child ' should be the tadpole of an archangel.

No man in the county aDDreciates the work of Tom Broom as county agent more than I do. I live almost on adjoining farms and long before ne was maae our county agent 1 knew his sterling worth to his community. I have known Tom Broom since he was a child--knew him as a boy knew him as a youna: man strug gling for an education knew him as a school teacher have known him as a church worker and a leader in his community since he joined the church when a small hoy, and it affords me much pleasure to testify to his good character and high standing -in his own community. His life has always been pure and clean and his good name without a spot or a blemish. He is always found on the moral side of all questions and ati all times stands ready and willing to lend a helping hand to those in distress. He has done more to develoo the agricultural interests of Union coun ty than any man who has ever lived in the county. He has taught the people to grow tuty bushels of corn to, me acre wnere ten Dusneis was formerly .considered a good yield. Bv nis teachings many farmers are now growing one bale of cotton to the acre where four hundred pounds for merly grew. Think of the thousands of dollars he has saved the farmers of the county in various kind of seed and fertilizer. His experience 'and knowledge of the farmers of Union county better qualifies him for this work than any other man in or out of the county. He knows the people knows where they live knows their financial standing knows their needs and is well worth twice the price of anv other man for the position of county agent, and I trust that such pressure will be brought on Mr. Broom to have him return to his old job as coun ty agent tor Union county.

Cooper had been presi dent of the institution, while T. E. . Cooper was vice president of the Mer chants National bank, of Raleigh. Failure of the Wilmington bank last winter precipitated the failure of a number of small banks throughout eastern North Carolina, they having been connected with the larger in stitution.

Williams, though the ar-, raignment had taken place in hi3 office late in the afternoon, refused to verify or deny the reports which had reached newspaper men. Today, he gave no reason for the. apparent suppression of facts concerning the arrest and subsequent release of the . four men. - To be fully secured should Lieu tenant Governor W. B.
