It la the deaire of the pastor of the various churche and their co-workers to gather euch statistics as will enable them to intelligently determine to what extent the city is churched. What percentage of the people, young and old, are attending tome of the city churches and Sunday schools and what proportion is from under the influence of the churches. The work of the census takers can be made very much easier by the co-operative efforts of the people generally.

MARCH 6, 1918 The British Admiralty evidently doesn't expect such easy sailing to Constantinople, after all. The populace has been asked to exercise patience, and not expect the Turkish stronghold to fall very quickly. A big brewery out in the Northwest will be converted into a creamery when the State of Washington goes dry on January 1. W16. . Here's hoping that the converted plant will be a success in every way after December 81, 1915. Kinston has Just as much right to motor driven fire apparatus as has her sister cities of the East New Bora, Wilson, Lumberton, Washington, etc have installed these non-oat-eating, highly efficient substitutes! for the faithful sleek blacks and greys. The bomb throwers, caught in the act of trying to blow up a New , York church, have brought pretty serious charges against the detective making the arrests. They ay that ha was the moving spirit and even made the in fernal machines, Pretty clever rose, whether it has any foundation or not. Remember, Tuesday morning the Fair Committee will tart Its stock-selling hike promptly at 10:80 o'clock. See to H that no other engagements separata you from your office or accustomed place of business until the gentle men reach you. If they happen to be a few minutes late. dont give them out Just feel aura they art coming! ; COMPROMISE BETTER THAN REFERENDUM The compromise agreed upon by the House and Sen ate with reference to the antl-fflug bill is, The Free Press believes, greatly to be preferred to the referendum which the Senate Insisted upon tacking on to the Grier anti-jug law. In fact, that plan has already been suggested by this paper. The substitute, as it passed the Senate Fri day, limits the shipments of spirituous liquors to one quart and of malt liquors to five gallons within fifteen days. That is a great deal better) than the present al lowance cf a gallon a week. In fact, the Grier bill was drastic and while the Free Press would like most sincerely to see tho absolute stopping of liquor shipments into this State, it may be possible for the laws to work a hardship upon some, who have become addicted to the habit. There are elderly men who have been accustomed to taking their 'toddies," who perhaps would suffer by being deprived ab solutely. The chief aim of prohibition k to stop the de velopment of the liquor habit in the growing generations, and it has never been thought by the saner and more conservative temperance people to be possible to destroy the habit in those who have grown old in the custom. The gradual advance toward the goal of total abstinence is the safer plan. Public sentiment will lend its support to the stop-by-step plan more readily than it will to the drastic method of knocking King Alcohol out at one fell swoop. The compromise measure, if properly enforced, will be a great deal better than going too far and run ning the risk of a reversal of sentiment. And it is not beyond the range of possibility to create such a condition. The Free Press will be satisfied now if the substitute be comes law. a,"1''"'' WHAT OTHERS SAY Old Lady March is cutting her accustomed capers, Just to let the folks know that she has arrived, we apprehend.

There are, of course, a great ' many local bills and many that might as well not pass, but still there are Important measures, which if passed will have to be dona in the extra "no per diem" days. Do our contemporaries, who fought so vigorously for a forty- day session, still think that the curtailed session would have given sufficient time to enact the necessary legisla tion!. The enabling act, authorising the County Commission ers to call an election to pass upon a good roads bond issue of $250,000, has passed both branches of tha Gen- DIVORCE LIBERALITY Wsh.ng'on IV.gr ss; "At each session of the Legis lature there is an effort made to make our divorce law more liberal, to aay nothing of the moral side of the ques tlon, it is a direct thrust at the home. Destroy the homo and the very foundation of alt (that is worth anything to civilization is gone. In the future each county in con vention should pass resolutions instructing their represen tatives against such legislation and thereby place the stamp of disapproval upon such low standards." ABOUT MOTOR-DRIVEN APPARATUS New Brn Jourrsl: "New Bern's protection from fire is pretty good at the present time, and with the addition of another combination motor driven truck it will be even better, and property owners who are now carrying large policies can with safety cut these down and thus save considerable expense. There's no need of paying the Southeastern Tariff Association enormous sums each year to carry the firs risk when the city of New Bern is spend ing thousands, of dollars to carry this same risk.

"The truth of the matter is that men find it impossible not to sympathise with one cother of the contestants in the mighty war j it is so colossal, so world-embracing that human nature would be other than it is if American; were not deeply interested. Practically of the peopl of this country take sides, one way or the other, and if the majority prefer the allies, the minority are but exercis ing their rights in wishing well to tho Teutonic arms.

This does not in any way excuse Germans who may be guilty of breaches of neu Tality ia this country they should be punished to' tha full extent of the law but it does show that active par- tieanship is not all on one side."
