SOMETHING ALL TAR HEELS
SHOULD FEEL. GOOD OVER
(Greensboro paily Record)
While some of our folks within the
State are complaining of everything
and everybody and are fearful that
North Carolina is running; to ruin,
there comes this bit of praise from
the Manufacturers' Record: ;
"One of the' reasons, eastern bank
ers were so tremendo'sly impressed
with North Carolina is that during
the greater part of the last twenty
five years North Carolina governors
have concentrated their full energies
upon the material educational ad
vancement of the state, Governo'r
Morrison is following a long succes
sion of governors who, in the main,
with a broad vision of what :ould be
achieved, untiringly in every way pos-
sioie, at home and abroad, told the
story of North Carolina's resources
and attractions. Many other southern
states have been unfortunately cursed
with governors who were more inter
ested in rotten politics and in their
own political, advancement than m
the material welfare of their states.
"The gubernatorial office of North
Carolina has in the broadest and best
j sense been an office for the promotion
ox we eaucauon ana Dusiness inter
ests of North Carolina.
TU -(r: :

used merely for the purpose of pro
moting the political activity of picay
uhish politicians and their states are
today suffering as a result,
"With all of its superb advantages,
North Carolina is -fully 'matched in
natural resources in climate,- in soil.
.jin minerals and in timbers, by many
other states in the South, but North
Carolina leads some of these states by
a thousand miles, because it has pub
lic men consecrated to the welfare
of the state rather than to dirty poli
ics and to- their own advancement.
I y "When every state in the south will
put into the gubernatorial office such
men as some of North Carolina's gov
ernors nave been, and as uovernor
Morrison is, they will be Rwakened to
their limitless possibilities." '
With bo much uncertainty running
loose right at this time as to what
North Carolina has and hasn't, what
the Manufacturers' Record says ought
to make everybody feel better.

NEW ORDER IS BIG
GAIN FOR WORKERS
Pittsburg, Aug. 22. (By the As-!
sociated Press.) Inauguration of j
the eight hour day in the steel mills, '
not yet a week old, has resulted in I
nUn .wViInU I
workmen agree is going toybe a big
help for all concerned. Not only will
the men work shorter hours instead
of the 12-hour day which the new
system displaced, but the coveted
"day off" has a place in the plan.
Three turns have been established,
numbered one, two and three. They
occupy the three eight' hour periods
into which the day is., now divided
and rotate their position on each
week. That is number one turn
this week becomes number two next
week, .number two becomes number
three, number three becomes num
ber one, and so on.: To avoid the sev
en day work week and give the day
off as much as possible in a continu
ous industry, the number one turn
works only six days each week as
against seven for the : other two
turns. In . this manner every man
gets a day off every three weeks,
hen his crew is the number one
turn. ' : - . .-. -
A time honored practive is to
change turns every week end, a
system which managers and work
men alike declare has its drawbacks.
To avoid this, the new schedule gives
the number one, or six day turn, a
32 hour rest at the -change of the
turn, instead of 24 hours as original
ly intended. This is accomplished by
putting the other two turns back to
work alter rest periods oi only eight
hours. It works automotically to
bring forward each week tha day
for changing the turn. That is, if the
turn changes on Saturday this week
it will chnage on Friday next week.
In this manner every man on every
turn gets a 32 hour rest period once
in three weeks and each time on I a
different day.

MR. JONES WRITES ABOUT
PRIMITIVE BAPTIST TROUBLES
( Stanly News-Herald. ) V
On yesterday's mail ' I received a
copy, marked sample, of your inter
csting 'and real nevtspaper,. In per
nsal of same I found your editorial
mention - ot a rrimmve Baptist, iso
cllfd, meeting to convene at Liberty
rim, on iriday betore the filth Sun
day " in SeDtember of this vear. '
read and re-read every word therein
and was still at a loss to know who
was sponsor, for same, but later
lound the large display advertisement
on another page. And since readme
and considering same. 1 want to state
tc you, that th s meeting has been
called by people who are not rec-
ognizeo as oraeny or ortnoaox
rnmitive Baptists and " they only
constitute a very small majority of
what was originally known as the
Bear Creek Primitive Baptist Asso
elation. The Bear Creek Association
is still in full and complete order on
same principles as when organized
and those people fathering the above
mentioned movement in said adver
tisement are now, as they have been
for some time, in disorder and such
a thought as a reconciliation between
them and the orderly Baptist of this
association has not been hinted by
them to rnysell or the Moderator or
any other member of this Association
as far as my knowledge extends. The
common or usual -way for excluded
to return to fellowship in our churches
is for them to appear at the churches
where excommunicated - anil satisfy
the church in order and be restored
to fellowship by the same party or
church that put them out, that " is
come in where they went out. They
have not sought restoration of fellow'
ship and their conduct by way of
injunctions and other nelanous acta
would indicate anything elafe .than
reconciliation. I am speaking directly
for myself but am sure I voice the
sentiment of the true. Primitive Bap
tists of the Bear Creek Association
when I warn the people everywhere
against any anuiation whatever wm
these tieople on any such terms as
they have . proposed without our
knowledge, or approval. I kindiy re-
quest you to give same publ.c t
this as has been accorded -tfco'o 1
prompted this reorient. We an
hands' of. W:H thank you in advaiic;
lor vour courtesy.
.Yours for truth and Gospel order
When the late President Harding
acquired with his .business associates
a controlling interest in the Marion
Star, in 1884, John . Frank Bull
coached the youthful publisher in
the difficult art of newspaper make
up and assisted in establishing the
venturesome enterprise on a sound
footing.
In the early days of the Harding
Publishing Company, Mr. Bull became
his employer's first assistant, remain
in? so for more than a decade. ;
"Mr. Bull had been a resident ot
Marion some four years at the time
that George T. Harding, Sr., moved
there from Mew Caledonia, U. fam
ilies of both were soon acquainted
and ouickly became most intimate
It was most natural when the
vouncer Hardinir. having tried suc
cessively law and insurance for brief
periods, turned" to newspaper work
. , . n 1 1 1 .
tnat me inena aireaay experiejiceu
in the "game", should be the other's
loyal associate and adviser. ,
"It was no easy task mat, warren
undertook when he bought the Star,"
Mr. Bull explained. "Everything had
to be done by hand. He had only an
old press and the only motive power
was our muscles.
"I remember in 1SS3 we bought a
small kerosene engine. The editor
was so proud of the new equipment
that he 'confessed to us all that he
wouldn't speak to anyone on the
street for almost a week.
"He was one of us always, in the
office, on the street and in the quiet
enjoyment of leisure time," added Mr,
Bull. .
"Often we were rushed in getting
out the paper on time, and on these
occasions W. G. would oome right in
and help with the setting up, or do
his part in printing the copies. I've
seen him many times with arms spat
tered with ink up to his shoulders."
A Very Fair Printer
"As a printer Warren was a very
fair workman. He could set up an
ad or operate the job press with the
best of them, though what he lacked,
of course, was experience. After he
had taken the press down -completely
once he worked out printing ideas of
his own that were admirably clear
and well organized. '
"It was far from a success finan
cially in the beginning.. Oftentimes,
on Saturday nights, the' chief would
explain regretfully that collections
had been bad or that circulation
had fallen off. ' On these occasions
the older employees would forego
their pay until business picked up
again.
The Joy of Journalism ?
"I believe his love for the Star was
so great at times Warren used to for
get wholly the business side of the
organization, giving himself over al
most , entirely simply to the joy of
journalism. " .; . ! ' .
"Shortly after I took over the man
agement of the jobbing department
he married. Mrs. Harding later came
into the office and reorganized wholly
the business end of it. Where in the
past the carrier-boys had been en
gaged on a weekly pay basis, a sys
tem of regular collections was insti
tuted.
"After a f.me, practically the en
tire administration of finances came
under the direction of Mrs. Harding.
Warren wrote editorials, as before,
and handled the advertising, while
managing actively the' work in the
shop itself. How well the new ar
rangement worked, the new Star
plant, with its dozen linotype ma
chines and fine press, plainly show."
