The "buy a bale" movement is sweeping the country. Clubs are be ing organized in many places. No doubt those who are able to invest in a bale or two will be amply repaid when the market conditions open up again. The Turkish Ambassador h now explaining that he didn't mean wha he said in that interview which re fleeted upon the United States an Enirland. The average Araericun knows that very little confidence to be placed in the "terrible Turk." n The war new. is favorable to the Allies now. and all because a handful of brave English troops, lead by a gallant commander, stood thci round for two davg nirainst irreat odds. It just goes to show that num bers don't always count. It is qual ity in preference to quantity to a cer tain degree at least. o A headline in the Richmond News Leader, reads, "The Trial of John Barleycorn. "Old John" is having a long'Siicie of it in the Old Dominion I and thi evidence Is, as it is every where else, overwhelmingly against him. A verdict of guilty in the first degree is expected about September 92, and it is thought the penalty will be permanent banishment. o v Pope Benedictus is preparing to ex ert his influence for the restoration of peace. The peace sentiment seems to be taking hold in the neutral coun tries, who have grown tired of the wfu carnage, and may it continue to grow until Humcient pressure can be brought to bear on the belligerents to cause them to stop the wholesale violation of the commandment "Thou Shalt not kill." cials of, the Farmers' Union will make alt atvngementl o$i "e our con temporaries have) suggested that e hay had about enough plans submit ted," and that the essentia thing tto do rs to work out a plan in harmony with the one already approved by the administration, which is expected to furnish the money for financing the tide-over plans. This is good logic. There may be better plans than the one ndopted, but why fool with them, when one has already traveled the red tape route, and had a seal of ap proval put upon it. Action is needed The Greensboro Record is getting "worked up" because Uncle Sam putting in some new and larger boxes for the accommodation of his postal patrons in that burg. The Record thinks if anybody in its town gets enough mail to rill the box that dray will have to be employed to haul it off. Jt, would be out. ef the ordi nary for such an occurrence to hap pen in Greensboro, we should think. - ... o " Are you truly thankful for the blessings ;todny? Have you man; fested your appreciation to the "Giv er of all good and perfect gifts"? If not read some of the human interest Stories of the tragedies enacted in-the lives of the unfortunates in Europe, where fathers and brothers are being snatched from their homes and slaughtered ruthlessly before the very eyes of their loved ones. o The particular hero, to whom is ac credited the reverses to the German lorces. which enabled the Allies to take the offensive, is General Smith Dorrien of the British army. It is said he saved the Allies' left, which was in such a precarious position for days. With a very small force, esti mated to have been outnumbered by the opposition five to one, the Gen eral fought for two days, and in spite of the fact that his troops were practically surrounded, held his pcf i tion and enabled the Allies left to secure new positions. The praises of General Smith-Dorricn art being sung by all British people. i : . o- . President Alexander of the Far mers Union has called mass-meetings of cotton growers to be held at the county seats in every cotton coun ty of the State. Governor Craig joins in the call.

Next Tuesday Lenoir county will have a celebration in honor of the readiness of the Kennedy Home, which will become a branch of the Baptist Orphanage at Thomasville. The home was made possible by the gift cf Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Kennedy, prominent and well-to-do residents of Falling Creek, this county, and will be known as the "Kennedy Memorial Home." An elaborate program has been ar ranged, Hon. J. Y.

Winston-Salem Journal: "The most progressive cities of the world have never hesitated to Vote bonds when it was seen to be necessary to borrow money in order to provide public im provements. The first cities of the land long have recognized that the pay-as-you-go plan will not work, if necessary improvements are to be made and at the same time the tax rate is to be kept within a limit that is not burdensome to citizens. The greatest business institutions of the world have been able to extend their operations and greatly ' to increase their business because of their abil ity to borrow money.

"There are enough church mem ber voters in Richmond to give a ma jority against the nefarious partner ship of Virginia with the liquor traf fic. There are enough, but will they vote with their churches? The Chris tian voters of Richmond are in the ascendency. Not a church member in Richmond, we venture to assert, would vote to sustain his pastor in preaching for the retention of the saloon in Richmond. If it is bad enough for your pastor to preach against, Mr. Richmond Voter, is it good enough for you to vote for? "September 22 is the testing time of Richmond." ' Dear iir. Editor: In these days when the Christian world is no doubt praying for peace, may I not pass on to your readers a very suggestive prayer which is being usee, jy a very large number of ministers and lay people throughout the world? The prayer is from the pen of Bishop Greene of New York, ii n as fol lows: Prayer for Peace. "0 God, who has made of one blcod all' nations of men to dwell on the ace of the earth, and who in Thy Holy Word hast taught us that One is our Father, even God, and that all we are brethren, we pray Thee in this dark hour of international strife that Thou wilt open the eyes of the peo ple and those who in Thy name are entrusted with the authority of gov ernance, to see and understand that right and true relation to Thee, and through Thee to one another. "Teach them by Thy spirit that ha tred and violence are not strength, . , .L, .t. x -- i I out veanness; mat. me irue saie- guarding of a nation is not to be 1 found in weapons of war, but in those eternal nrincinles which make for righteousness and truth and brother hood and peace. "Give to those who shall suffer in the war which is raging now the con solation of Thy grace. Heal the sick comfort the wounded, minister to the dying, bind up the broken heart. "Bring, we pray Thee, to a speedy end this international strife, and has ten the time when peace shall flour ish out of the earth and all shall dwell together in unity and love, and war shall be no more. We ask it in the name of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen." JOHN H. GRIFFITH. DIZZY? BILIOUS? CONSTIPATED?
