SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 22, 1916. The Prohibition National Convention did well to pasj up ex-Covcmor William Sulser of New York and nomi nate former Governor Hanlyv of Indiana. The temper nee party wDl gain nothing bjr setting up the discard? of other parties. There is room- for those who have fall en, and they .should I given' a helping hand, but there are too many able men, who have not deviated from thf paths of rectitude, who can be; selected as leaders. Lei the penitents serve in the ranks! A strong team has been nominated by the Prohlbltior national convention in former Governor Hanly of Indi ana for President, and Dr. Ira Landrith, former-President of Belmont College at NashviBe and now editor aflelt' for tho Christian Endeavor World, for Vice-President These are men of the highes type of Christian citizen ship nd thoir (candidacy wil no doubt receive recognJ tlon in the great body of independent voters, who cas' their ballots for the man as well as the issue. WILL NEED ASSISTANCE. , Reports coming from the flood-stricken section in thf -,t western part of the state indicate that there will prob- ) visibly be necessity for some outside help for at least eomr .of the communities. Asheville and the larger centers, I" is said, will be able to take care of their own destitute . but in the ; smaller " communities, i where everything ,was destroyed, assistance will have to, be given. , Relici funds are being started in thV State, Raleigh being one of the places to UkV'thtATiit,; I'm ayis will be glad to tccoive and transmit to the proper committee, when it shall be appointed, any contributions from cltl- ans of thls( favored locality.' Many calls com to ren dor assistance to people, who are sufferers from such calamities as visited the western part of the state the first of this week, and it is an opportunity as well as a duty to those, who are prosperous, to participate in the alleviation of the suffering of the unfortunate. No call .should have more consideration than that which comes from close range. I I I ' ..'.Ml ... ' '.' RESPECT FOR LAW AND ORDER. Night riding outrages, although they do not, as a rule, result in murder, are closely akin to lynching. They are all of the same family, and aggressive steps should be taken by the officials to put a stop to the outrages, which aro being perpetrated in Duplin and Pender and bring those guilty to justice. More difficult, of course, will be the conviction of any of those guilty of participating n those outrages because of the number involved. There : should nevertheless bo an effort made to give protection to those, whose property is being destroyed and whose lives are In jeopardy, because they have disagreed on ; soma matter of self-government with others of iheir v community. Might doesn't make right , and those who ars endeavoring by force and the wanton destruction ot ' property to compej their neighbors to come to their way of viewing a matter, which pertains to the whole people - of the community, are about as far from reaching u correct solution of the question) as it is possible for them M' is. " " 1 '' ' " ".- " ' ' U'bW'Tn!gKi rider 'confesses; by jMs very adUon by the fact that he prowl about under cover of dark ness, and doesn't come out in the open that hi meth ods are wrong. The Free Press hopes that the good name of Duplin, Pender and Eastern Carolina can be cleared by the mani festation ot respect for law and order. RESPONSIBILITY OF SELECTING TEACHERS. From time to time The Free Press has taken occasion to discuss the importance and responsibility of the selec tion of teachers for the public schools, and to emphasise the need for greater consideration of the qualifications rather than the "how much will he or sho cost us" plan. Touching this vital question, the University News Let ter cf this week's iaue has quite a. pointed article undei the caption, "Hiring Teachers." The News Letter pro pounds the following questions in introducing its article: "When you start out looking for a new teacher, Mr. Su perintendent or Mr. Committeeman, what do you havt in mind as qualifications? Are you looking enly foi someone who will agree to keep school at forty, forty Ive, or fifty dollars a month? Are you looking for some one who can come to you at a low price because Iheir parenU live near and she can board at home? Arc yov 'ooking for a teacher who is primarily a member of som ehuioU r Wivv- Vrf rtic!8.r!&'', party?" Thi News Letter wonders because some com munifcies put up with the teaching material that is foist sd upon them. Under certain accepted standards of teaching many a so-called teacher would be indictable for mcl-practice, very aptly says the News Letter. , Unquestionably in the past teachers have been selected because of- some family connection or other like influ jnce, that were not qualified to teach and when those, pon whom the responsibility for selecting the teachers lid a' gTievous wrong to their communities by placing ;he responsible duties of teaching upon incompetent and inqualified people. Happily we believe there is a tenden y, gradual though it may be, to better this condition. At 'east, our observation Is that the progressive5 communi ies aro adopting the policy of fitting the ealary to the teacher rather than the teacher to the salary. No tax. payer will object to his school committeemen selecting rompetent and thoroughly qualified teachers and paying mch teachers commensurately with the service required. jvhen he. the taxpayer, takes into consideration that the 'eacher has to do, with a very important formative period f his child's life. Every parent should desire to see the best qualified teachers of the highest character employed ind should uphold the hands of their committeemen In oursuing such a policy.

Elizabeth City Advance: "Modern science to the belief hat the mosquito, rather than the Germanic barbarians, was responsible for the fall of Rome. Malaria, the dis ease transmitted by this insect pest, has been a more deadly fop to civilisation than all the untaught tribe of savages that hav overrun decadent nations. "Are you permitting mosquitoes to breed about your houas and grounds? June and July have been rainy months and during such seasons enough mosquitoes are hntched in an old tomato can to make your wholo family miserable every night - ' ,;' "Sometimes drain pipes become clogged and then tin roofs and gutters make an ideal place for the mosquito to increase and multiply by the thousands. , 4s "Just bocause you don't need kerosene now to ligh't your fires in the morning, don't let the can go empty all summer. Cover water that you cannot get rid of with a film of oil and that will be the end of posterity for Mr. Mosquito in that particular spot A rag saturated in kerosene and rubbed over your screen windows every nlyht will keep tha little fellows that breed in your neighbor's yard from coming through.
