THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 21, 1915 Of course, it is nobody's else business what Mr. and Mrs. Sayre have decided to name their son, but neverthe less the cognomen "Wood row Wilson" would have been a much more distinguished one than "Francis." The little fellow's daddy evidently couldn't down his pnternul pride. The "yellow Jacket" cases over in Duplin have been decided. The defendant lost in one to the extent of $48 and won in the other. The estimated damage from the fire started by the water boy to drive out the "stingers," made by the plaintiffs was $1,500, but after hearing the evidence the jury said $48. Quite a difference of opinion. The friends of Judge Oliver H. Allen congratulate him on his escape from injury in the serious wreck of the Seaboard Air Line's fast train, on which the Judge wan a passenger. Train wreckers are thought to have been est of the larger part of the congregation is a question, which few if any have solved to their entire satisfaction. The faithful few can be depended upon to support the mid-week prayer meeting, as they do all the other ser vices of the church, but the great majority of those who attend, do so spasmodically and cannot be depended upon for any degree of regularity. Even the church officers are careless about supporting this very important ser vice and it is not an infrequent occurrence to go to a mid week service and find not a single officer, aside from the minister of the church present Uninteresting meetings may be responsible in some few cases, but thut cannot be assigned as a general reason for sparsely attended prayer meetings. Those, who are regular attendants, will testify that the mid-week service is the sweetest of the whole church program. The spiritual atmosphere of these services and the usual general participation in the dis cussion and exercises are very potent factors in the church life. Some church leaders aver that the prayer- meeting is the thermometer of the church. Certainly those who are most regular in their attendance and sup port of the mid-week service can be depended upon to do their Bhare of the work, whatever it may le, in the gen eral activities of the church. flow's This? THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE PLAN IS THE BEST SOLUTION. The Free Press believes that its suggestion, mude yes terday, that a committee of representative citizens be asked by the Mayor to act as an advisory committee to the one nlreudy appointed by the City Council to consider tho matter of a change in the system of city government is a logical one, and one that would meet the exigencies of the situation. The matter of city government is one that vitally concerns every man, woman and child here. The interests of all are one, or, they ought to be. There is, always has been, and alwnys will be, an honest differ ence of opinion among people as to tho best methods and t is not to be supposed that any system could be devised whereby all would lie satisfied. The best interests of the community in general snoum control ami me caim ueno eration and counsel of the city's leading and successful business nnd Drofessional men would result in good. As responsible lor me derailment, and ir sucn De tne case hf ag p0Bgi)lc there HnouItl l)C ft complete diminution of no effort should be spared to bring the guilty culprits to ! poitlcl, or any parti8an lines. The matter is not so much the bar of Justice. It is not often that such dastardly a p.,,,,, one but a cn8e of the 8yittem.

The German air raid on England was of little conse quence so far as the casualties of war are counted, but the moral effect upon the populace of King George's do , main will iii all probability be demoralizing. England has been quite apprehensive of the proposed raid, which has been threatened for sometime and particularly so since the naval bombardment of coast towns n few weeks ago. The military authorltiea have shown seme resentment at the activity of home guards and have refused to allow uniforms worn by this impromptu brance of the do fense. The populace has had occasion to lose some of its confidence in the ability of the authorities to ward off attacks, and for that reason more or less precautionary measure have been taken by the civilians. This has nat urally created aome feeling. A little more aggresaivo ness on the part of England'a navy will restore the peo ple'i confidence. a LIMITING THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY TO FORTY DAYS. The action of the Senate in defeating tho resolution to reduce the session to forty days is, The Free Press be lieves, wise. The work of the lawmakers has not ad vanced sufficiently at the present tlmo to put them In position to determine whether or no the work can be completed in a shorter time than that allotted. There is plenty of time to consider the curtailment of the session later when it has been shown that tho full sixty days are not required to do the work. A motion to adjourn is al ways in order, and when the calendars are clouted, then the legislators can show their patrioti.im by adjourning and saving the State their per diem, but let them proceed now with the regular order of things. The revision of the taxation system, the public health, provision for t atate-wlde primary, the needs of various Stato institu tiona, etc., aro of more importance just now than the day of adjournment. The people of the Stato want action, but they are not so anxious for so much grandstand piny Lot the members of the General Assembly see to it that every day counts for something in the way of construct ive legislation. Let there not be that usual procrastina tion in getting down to "brass tacks," and let the session be closed on the very earliest day possible. operation now in effect is capable of giving the best re turns. The Free Press believes that the suggestion is wise, and it hopes tho Mayor and Council will see their wuy clear ui wren mo uuvii-e uiiu nMinmini; ..i ,.,.. teo in tho adjustment of this very vital matter.

The auggestion made in a letter from a church member, printed in the "Vox Populi" column of The Free Press Wednesday, relating to the importance of the mid-week prayer service of the churches is. The Free Press believes, very timely. The prayer meeting attendance and interest problem Is not peculiarly a local one. It confronts every congregation in America.

I .el's get in the game. WHAT OTHERS SAY WORTHY OF SUPPORT Raleigh Times: "Every good citizen should desire to aid the Juvenile Protective Association formed in this city for the purpose of going to the aid of wayward chil dren in an effort to prevent them from becoming crim inala. It is the duty of society to protect juveniles, and any effort in this direction Is worthy of hearty support. The efforts of society should bo directed towards helping that percentage of the populace which needs it, and if one out of ten children is reclnimed, the association will have done something worth While. The proportion will be greater than that. The Times welcomes the new associa tion, and trusts thnt it will never relax in its endeavors to help those who need helping." NOT FAIR TO WOOTEN 'harlotte Observer: "The Maxton Scottish Chief, which can neither forget nor forgive the lickin' of 11)12, is dis posed to pillory Speaker Woolen for having voted against inviting the Colonel to make nn address to the Legisla ture. Under the supposition that Wooten wns 'a strong supporter of Senator Simmons in his campnign, The Chief is of opinion that Wooten 'showed the kind of a Democrat he is by having his vote recorded against in viting Secretary Bryan.' In the contest for the speaker ship, the minority Democrats represented Mr. Wooten as typical of the 'progressive,' and hailed his election with delight. The Observer, in a quiet way, expressed its sat- sfaction with the result. Its information about Mr. Woot en politically it knew him to bo a finely equipped par iannntarian was to the effect that while he was ; Kitchin man, he was neutral in the 1912 campaign, and it was told, though its informant spoke only from belief, thut he voted for Clark. If these facts are correct, it is manifest that The Scottish Chief ias lo.st its bearings. mid is a little too previous in banishing Wooten from the heep pnsture to the goat cliffs."
