Editor ntorvd at th Podomca aaeond elaat m attar THE WIN8TON ELK8 AND THEIR AUDITORIUM. Tha Elks of Winston-Salem have fat down their cash in way that does -erodit to themselves and the hustling -ltj which Is their home. Together with some of the business men of the ity, the club has provided an up-to-date auditorium for public attractions coming to Winston. The enterprise will undoubtedly jyroTe successful to the club from financial point of view, although the members probably initiated the move juaot from a sense of civic pride. Now what the Winston Elks have done the Kinston Elks can do. Our ocal elub la composed of some of our auost progressive citizens. The young men undoubtedly have the best inter sts of Kinston at heart. They want to make it a good place in which to live, an attractive stop over for the traveller, and an inviting point of location for the home seeker. This end can be attained in no surer way than by providing Kinston with mn auditorium suitable for high class productions such as her citizens de mand. We all know that the town needs jnst aucb an enterprise, and needs it badly. A town la Judged, to a large extent, by the appearance of its churches and other places of public jrmort. The auditorium, academy of awislo, or whatever you may call it omea within this class of public re sorts; and as, su.ch demands special .recognition at the bands of the town. Then again, a makeshift of an opera house will attract only inferior attrac tions to our midst. While an up-to-date house will draw larger crowds, and attract a better class of entertain asMmU than can otherwise be had. If the young men of our town take Jhold of this movement to equip a suit able auditorium energetically and with determination there is no reason "why the movement should fail. Where there Is a will there is always way.-, TheKlksand the other progressive lodge of Kinston could do their town no greater service than in the erection ur equipment of an auditorium. ':. .T . .p .

THE WAR PORTFOLIO L L -I .. , CHANGES INVOLVED BY RETIREMENT OP EUHU ROOT. Some time ago Edwards & Brough ton, of Raleigh, celebrated their 32d maciversary as a business firm. The vent la a remarkable one in that it ahows what devotion to business prin ciples and strict integrity in its deal inga with the public will do for a firm. Speaking of the event the Raleigh Times says: Thli la a generation. A partnership ! Una duration, deserves more tnan m passing notice, for it signifies a geniality, a oneness of purpose, a for hearanoe with each other's shortcom ings, which rarely occur. No busi ness, not based upon right principles oald exhibit such a record. Partners ia business like the average house bald, may have their differences, but these breeches are always soon healed because the contenders desire to do to right thing. Wherever this firm is known, in or out of our own State, it is noted for honest work, fair anc wpright dealings. Then too that which has brought to it the sympathy, the good will and the co-operation of the employes is that the proprietors have sever forgotten tnat they, too, were vaoe wage camera, and in all respects And under all olroumstauoes they have cheerfully accorded to their employes ana ngnts to wnicn tney were entitled Again Lieut. Perry is to seek the north pole. He is confident that be will ultimately be able to discover the coveted spot. He has secured a leave of absence of three years from She United States navy for this pur foa to which he has already devoted 13 of the best years of his life. Speaking of Perry's hunt for the ! the Charlotte Observer says: We have long been of the opinion hat when the north pole la reached by aun that man will be an American, ,mmI aa this ia as era of great aocom- glahments, It would not be surprising Parry should be successful. His perseverance is certainly worthy of uii great attainment, in xact, ne weeau aa dauntless aa Sir Thomas Up ton. . Perhaps, If Upton and Perry would combine in a dash for the most wortberly point they would reach it, If determination count for anything tia aa Artie expedition they would cer tainly be qualified for success. Amer ica could afford to share the honors f a discovery with Great Britain and Sir Thomas Upton would hardly miss the money expended. The Pleaamr of Eatinr ' " .

U'ii & Co. ; E CHIEF CHARACTERISTIC OF THE AMERICAN WO MAN IS HER VERSATILITY. THIS IS POSTERED BY AMBITION. HER ACTIVE MIND SEEMS TO OPEN, ALL PATHS TO HER. Beauty and charm in woman and good fellowship in man will take them into fastidious, refined circles in Britain where dull duchesses and rich bores seek en trance in vain. Compared with England's, AMERICAN "SOCIETY IS RESTRICTED, X ARROW AND ARTIFICIAL, and it takes a long time to break down the barriers. Americans are often credited with loving titles. In a sense the criticism is true, but only inasmuch as, striving always to have the best of everything, including society, THEY MAKE THE MIS' TAKE OF THINKING THAT THE ARISTOCRACY of the country must represent the MOST CULTURED AND REFINED of its inhabitants. Unfortunately this is not always so, but it is obviously unfair to reproach the American woman for seeking what in every other country in the world BOTH SEXES STRUGGLE FOR social or material advancement. Certainly in the way of book learning SHE IS BETTER READ, and, having generally traveled before she makes her appear ance in the world, by the time she is eighteen she is able to assert her views on most things and her independence in all. 8KE SELDOM LOSES HER HEART NEVER HER HEAD, THE COLD NESS WITH WHICH SHE IS REPROACHED BEING PERHAPS ONE OF THE 80URCES OP HER POWER. It has often been attributed to American women that they are queens in their own country, caressed and honored from infancy, and that, wielding an immense capricious power in being treated as god desses behind the altar, rather than as comrades in the lines of battle, their confidence in themselves is naturally unbounded. THE CONSENSUS OF OPINION IS THAT THE AMERICAN GIRL IS PERHAPS THE BEST DRESSED WOMAN IN THE WORLD. averar Taft aa Secretary at War Will Oeeaar Poallloa Oar Bfll by Hla Father Tha Saw Oartraar of taa Pfclllaplaea.

Woman's Industrial Emancipation By CARROLL D. WRIGHT, United Statea Leber Commissioner T 18 ONLY LATELY THAT WOMAN IS ON AN rotlAI. ITY WITH MAN. IF HER INDUSTRIAL EQUALITY 18 SECURED ALL ELSE WILL FOLLOW. WOMAN'S' IN DUSTRIAL EMANCIPATION MEANS MORE TO ME THAN HER POLITICAL EMANCIPATION. Complete industrial emancipation means the HIGH EST TYPE OF WOMAN as a result, the word "industrial" com prehending in this sense all remunerative employment EACH STEP in the industrial movement haa RAISED HER in the "scale of civilization rather than degraded her. There ia no fixed rule by which nature haa intended that one sex should excel the other any more than there is any fixed point beyond wuicn eimer cannot develop, nature nas no inten tions and evolution has no limits. " , TRUE SCIENCE TEACHES THAT THE ELEVATION j OP WOMAN IS THE ONLY SURE ROAD TO THE EVOLU-I TION OF MAN. As woman has the power given her to support herself she will be less inclined to seek MARRIAGE RELATIONS . SIMPLY FOR , the purpose of securing "what may seem to be HUME : AND PROTECTION. ' . l t One of the greatest boons which will result from the" industrial emancipation of woman will be the frank admission on the part of the true and chivalric man that she is the SOLE RIGHTFUL OWNER OF, HER OWN -BEING in every respect? that whatever com panionship may exist between her and man shall be aa thoroughly" Honorable to her as to him.

So in her political ambition she must be content to stand or fall by the same rule, IFt SHE BUNGLES, POLITICAL EMAN CIPATION WILL NOT COME ; if her experiments prove sise-t-psffulshe WILL SECURE POLITICAL FREEDOM, no tester n-Vr.t ihe arguments against it maybe. to become solicitor general of the Unit ed Statea in the Harrison adrulnlstra tion.
