SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 18, 1916
But for the obliteration of Oyster Bay we could hope
that the. Colonel would find the atmosphere of the South
Sea glands so congenial as to tike up his ipprmanont

A contemporary reminds us that the war has been for
gotten in the excitement of the presidential election. Un
fortunately, however, the period of forgetfulness is of
short duration and we must begin again to play up the
advance ot the forces under 3enerlil llalg on the West
and the probable obliteration of Roumania on the East
together with the side lights.
The press agent of the Dcutschland seems to have
been asleep on the job this time for the famous undersea
merchantman was about to make its get-away to its home
port before a dozen or more speculative announcements
had been made In the press of the country and its pur
pose would have probably been accomplished had it not
been for the untimely dnterfereence of its own tug.

REDUCING ACREAGE RESPONSIBLE.
Cotton has passed the twenty cent mark on the Kinston
market, a realization that 'the fondest Imagination did
not anticipate six months ago. The Free Press, like all
loyal Southerners, rejoices that the great staple of this
section Is coming Into its own and that the farmers, v.ho
have for so long failed to Obtain prices commensurate
with their labors, are getting such encouraging returns
now.
There Is one phae of the matter, however, which we
have frequently called attention to and which we deem ad
visable to continue to keep fresh .in the minds of our far
mer readers. The price obtaining for cotton now is large
ly the result of a short crop . Had the farmers Ignored
the lessons of 1914 and failed to cut down the cotton
acreage in 1916 twenty cents would have never bjen
realized In spite of the fact that high prices are vcr.y
much In style just now. The farmers of the South must
not overlook the lessons of the past. The Free Pres
hopes that they will not become obscessed with the i lea
again that they must turn their entire attention to the
planting of cotton. A fair division should be given to
food crops and the wise farmer will not lose his head be
cause of the splendid prices prevailing this year. He will
continue next season to practice diversification, whi-h
has proved such a blessing this year. Continued reduced
cotton acreago will mean continued good prices for the
staple and bumper crops will continue to spell law prices.
THE "OPEN DOOR."
A dark cloud luderd It is which has no silver lining.
There is one encouraging note, one 'bright spot In the re
ports coming from the scenes of the terrible carnage on
the. European battle field. The missionary societies in
form us that never before ' In the history of the world
has the "open door" for the teaching of God's word to
the masses of Europe been in evidence as it is today. Not
only are the soldiers in the trenches, awaiting the com
mands of their officers to charge the deadly guns of their
opposing farces, eager and ready to hear the message, but
the great capitals of Europe which have long been no
toriously reprobate and Godless are turning their atten
tlon to higher and better things. Preachers, j. who before
the outbreak of the terrible war occupied choice pulpits
and served prosperous congregations, are now sharing
the hardships of the army life, grasping tho opportunities
to tell the story of salvation to men, many of whom never
paused before to consider that ther? was a God, who is a
jealous God and who requires of them a service.
Missionary experts predict that the outcome of the war,
regardless of which shall win, will mean th:3 opening of
tho door of opportunity for Protestant Christianity as it
has never been dreamed of before. Unquestionably there
are signs which support such eoncluslons.-

Popular Boston Lady Says Tonolint

It is always interesting to lliten

Added interest is created In a state

Such a person is Annie Stewart,

anyone to call on her to verify tho
following ifgned testimonial.

There's little comfort' in r .ct low priced

The $635 Overland is dhTerent. It is not
ony the speediest of low priced car.s
But you can use the full speed cf its power

It has long 42 -inch, easy riding, shock ab
sorbing cantilever rear springs. In addition
the 75 B Overland is a longer car 104
inch wheelbase. And it has 4-inch tires.
Its smoothness and ease of riding at any
speed would do justice to a much larger
and heavier car.

the best kind of proof.
