Three weeks to Chautauqua. And down! the primary cut em We guess the Germans thought it was the Grand Fleet all right. How cruel the choice between Roosevelt or Wilson must be for the Republicans. If you haven't bought that season ticket to the baseball games -- why loosen up! When all is said and done it seems to us that the primary is liked or distrusted in the meas ure that one has confidence or distrust in government of the people by the people. The torpedo, if torpedo it was, which sank the Hampshire and compassed the death of Lord Kitchener, dealt England per haps a greater blow than the taking of Verdun. Too early in the game to make any prophecies in this baseball business, but our advice to the wary is to watch those Roanoke Rapids Lions when they begin ramping around. What we want to know is how that Daughtridge manager ever figured out a 24,000 majority from a 28, 000 minority. Suchan one could figure John D. broke and have Henry Ford walking to the office. . You are cordially invited to prance out to the ball grounds this afternoon and see the open- ing game of the league in which thr, Rr,annk Ranids i.lavers r- "- will proceed to lift the UiAa nff the Emporia aggregation. N. B. Decided to crow now, while the crowing was good. p,h-oH tKa nniv HirWrwo: in the way the two precincts viewed the candidates for State offices, was the licking Rose mary administered to J. R. Young, the vote being 59 to 30 in favor of McClenaghan against a vote of 107 to 12 in favor of Young at Roanoke Rapids. The vote at Rosemary was the re sults! the enthusiastic efforts of a few workers around the polls, who-opposed Young on account of his action in forcing fraternal rder8 writing insurance to com ply with the laws of North Caro lina. Those reports of North Caro lina, correspondents at the Chicago Convention in regard to the negroes swarming in the hotel lobbies, hugging and be ing hugged by the Republican bsoses, is excellent Democratic campaign literature. In the words of Parker Ander son,, correspondent for the Greensboro Daily News: "At the headquarters in Congress and Auditorium hotels here the sixty or more negro delegates from the south hang around so thick that one imagines he is not in a respectable hotel but some place where does not belong." Htnce - the Solid South. Mr. Bickett It 1 has been said that Mr. Bickett was nominated for gov ernor the moment he sat down after finishing his historic Char lotte speech. That was calcula ting a long while in advance, for it was realized that all things being equal, Mr. Craig was to have another try at the nomina tion of his party. Lot things might, and in the very nature of the case would happen; but if Mr. Bickett would be good and patient, there wasn't any reason why, some of these days he mightn't expect to set up his lares and penates in the mansion at Raleigh. The speech placing Ashley Home before the convention and demanding the gubernatorial nomination for this sturdy old Confederate was Mr.Bickett's in troduction to his State, that had not hitherto suspected his exist ence, t'e.awoke that morning a local lawyer and went to bed a State figure with a reputation for eloquence. It was mostly along of nature having been generous in the particulars of vocal equipment. His speaking voice has been de clared not unlike that of Bryan, although of course Bickett talks the North Carolina language, ' whereas Bryan speaks westernese and rolls his r's in a way that is terrifying to a per-, son not brought up to such treat ment of the harsh consonant. Mellow, musical, flowing, Bick ett's tones are in themselves a delight, irrespective of any act ual words or ideas he may em-; ploy. However, he possesses a , fine discrimination in the choice of words; and the impression; stamped upon the picked men of ! the State's Democracy, as- sembled there, was that they had! found a big man. They acted at i once on this hunch by picking him up for the office of Attorney- j General, asking him if he! wouldn't please try and make ' out with that for a while, which : ' he did. Hundreds of commence-; ment and similar addresses have' tended to confirm and spread . . . ,-, , ,, . . this impression. Our folks just , naturally take to a good talker. Greensboro Daily News. Roanoke Rapids and Rose mary Ministerial Union Influence of The Transforming Prayer The following is selected from a very stimulating little book call ed The Meaning of Prayer, by Harry Emerson Fosdkk. And Jehovah spake to Muses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. Exodus 33:11. And the scripture was tulimed which said, And Abraham be- I "evea 8,1(3 11 vvaa 'Koneu htm for righteousnes; and : ILJ iL. .:..J . lie was caiieu uie uitMiu ui God. James 2:23. The most transforming in fluences in life are personal ! -ffMrtrtHuhit-i Krarw Ana 'hn iiiuuuiJMip u 1 1 1 ; vuv " iiw meets us influences us, but friendship opens the heart to the ideas, ideals, and spiritual quali- j ty of another life, until we are j susceptible to everything that; the friend is and sensitive to everything that he thinks, j Desdemona describes the natur al effect of close friendship: "My heart's subdued even to the very quality of my Lord". Consider then what persist ent fellowship with God will mean in changing life's quality and tone. Henry Drummon d said, . "Ten minutes spent in Christ's i society every day, aye, two1 minutes, if it be face to face and heart to heart, will make the j whole life different" In how' many people is the fine quality which all feel and none can de scribe, th1? w.ilt of this inntr fellowship! Some things cannot be bought or earned or achieved; they must be caught, they are transmitted by contact as fra grance is. Perhaps the greatest consequence of prayer is just this atmosphere which the life carries away with it, as Moses came with shining face from the com munion of his heart with God True prayer is habitually putting oneself under God's influence. "We rejoice that in all time men have found a refuge in Thee, and that prayer is the voice of love, the voice of pleading, and the voice of Thanksgiving. Our souls overflow toward Thee like a cup when full; nor can we for- Coats far the A light coat for the demi-season is a necessity and It must be of a char acter to suit almost any occasion. Whenever a chill In the air demands H, morning, afternoon or evening, it Is to grace Its wearer by Its conservative but undeniably good style. It Is one of the difficult things that designers face each spring, and they wrestle with Its problems with varying suc cess. The spring coat depends upon Its style to make it a ready seller or a failure. In the eyes of the manufac turer. It must be In line with the mode as to shape, quiet as to color, and an advantage to the figure of the wearer. Hence there are many models. An elegant deml-season coat of gab ardine shown in the picture, Is lined with striped taffeta. It is handed with silk In self color, about the bottom and at the cuffs.

There Is a I pointed vol'p .it the hock that suppests bear; nor shall wo search to see if our prayers have been register ed, or whether of tilings nsketi 'we have received much, or more or anvthinir. That we have had permission to feel ourselves in f Thy presence, to take upon our- selves something of the light of Thy countenance, to have aeon-! sciousness that Thy thoughts are, upon us, to experience the in-! Bpiration of the Holy Spirit in , any measure this is an answer to prayer transcending nil things ' that we can think of. We are ga,j that we can glorify Tie that we can rViuice Thee, that does make a difference to T ,,( what we do, and thatTlimi do-t enfold us in a consi i-jusness of '1 by sympathy with us, of how much Thou art to us, and of what we are to Thee." Henry Ward! Beecher. FIRE DEPARTMENTS EVERV TOWN SHOULD PROVIDE NECESSARY PROTECTION FOR LIFE AND PROPERTY. We frequently see ('omnientu in tbe press upon the fact that Area bring out the fact that the cities and towns are often provided with luttdoiiueie !irj departmeuts. This le & proper mjui ment and a matter that Rhonlrt he J brought very forcibly to the attention! ef those whuni the people have charged i With providing proper proteulou ualnat Area Th sr-' -lurf-ri to which our property la subjected crIIb forcibly for an adequate water hupp' and well equl)pei' fire department, and there Is uo excuse U our present con dltlons, for any holdup In making these and other necessary provisions for protection of life aud property. There Is, however, a matter Uiat th press would do well to bring forcibly to lbs attention of the municipal of ficers, and that is that the starting of Bra in nearly every rase shows a lack of proper precautloa. If our cities and towns were alive to the great advantages to be gained by using ven ordinary precautions against firea, such as proper buildings, clean premlaes and regular Inspections, then so many fires would not be started and tiere would not be so many occasions for the uae of fire departments, and & great reduction would be made In the immense loss both of lives and prop arty. HEME Early Season t;; ' ft I j a little cape. The upper part of the body terminates In a long point at eaih sl.ie in the front. But these de tails In shaping are inconspicuous. Ex cept for a few buttons and the silk banding the coat is untrimmed. The model is in a very dnik blue. Besides these trim semlfltting mod els there are others with fuller lines and cut somewhat longer. Oi3 of the handsomest models made of coYert a:u1 other cloths Is cut to hang Btralght but very full. The waist line la de fined by rows of shirring at each aide and by a bell rctoss the back and front It has deep cuffs and a wide eol'ar that may be turned up aboit the neck. An extreme of the flaring mode has attracted much attention, although It la mnde of dark blue gabardine. It has a high cape collar and panels down the front pf blue-and-white checked material It flares from the shoulders down, but a belt whlrh emerges from slushes at each side of the front pre tends to hohl Its fullness somewhere near the waist of the wearer, at the front Good Looks are Easy with Magnolia Balm.
