BE A FRIEND TO MAN ,
Let me live in my house by, the
side of the road,
Where the race of men go by;
They are good, they are bad, they
are weak, they are strong,
" Wise, foolish so am;L
Then why should I sit in the scorn-
er'sseat, . . .
Or hurl the cynic's ban?
Let me live in my house by the
side of the road,
And be a friend of man.
'Sam Walter Foss
A bill has been introduced in the
Legislature to compel all children
between the ages of 7 and 12 years
V5
to attend school. ,
I There is ,no such thing as com
fpulsory education.' But, a compul-
I sory school attendance law would
be of great . advantage.
Dr.Joyner's plan of a uniform
syste m of examination for teachers
is an exceuentone. it woula ex-
clude the incompetent teacher and
a teacher's certificate obtained
' under this system would hold good
in any County in the State.
The Asheville citizen says that
there is a cold snap coming to Ashe
ville. From this we infer, that it
will not strike anywhere else in
Western Carolina and therefore,
would advise that if the people in
Asheville wish to avoid the cold
that they come over to Sylva.
STAY RIGHT HERE.
It always grieves us to hear of a
North Carolina boy turning his eyes
toward some other State to make
his fortune. The same wisdom and
energy applied Iiere will bring as
good or better results than else
where. It may be for the time
being a fellow may mal e a little
more money in some other ' State,
but in the long runf nine ; times out
of ten, larger financial success will
come to him who builds his busi-
ness in North Carolina. We are
always sorry for ,the man whose
local attachments lie lightly ujwn
him. One who, as the saying goes,
is at home wherever he hangs up
: Ihis hat," The love of home and
vfriends is a sign of character. The
V Rver is never a strong man. But
v ; there are some things in this world
' - that are better , than money. We
: . - all owe an obligation to our native
- State. .She gave us birth. cAll our
V:;;:-:; lives we have enjoyed the blessings
;c s of her institutions. We have breath
ed her spiritAVe have make friends
of her people. Did it ever occur to
you that this is real, capital? As
for the writer, he feels that it would
jtake a dazzling offer indeed to draw
him from his ; native State. -His
friends are nearly all in North Car
olini and he thinks :too much of
them to run away ;an leave them.
Somehow what our boys are doing
abroad does not. interest us verv
much.- Of -course we love themltioi; Iti is useless to hniri
'1 - ?o
ltaleot'to: develop aveand'-;aniaa
community. We need all our boys
to help solve the eat. nioral;,ques
tions that are pressing upon us light
now, ami no ouier uoys uauvuu u..sy

HE WEBB-KENYON BILL.
of Meredith Col-
- - - w ; - .
a search and seizure law , in; the
following letter to the News . and
Observer
To the Editor: The session of
the Anti-Saloon League in Wash
ington December 16-19 left little!
doubt in the minds of the delegates
of the passage of the Webb-Kenyon
C pooougc ui txic trcuu-ncayuu ,
by both houses of Congress
bill
rr. . . ..... . .
inis is tne most senous danger tnat i
nas ever tnreatenea tne liquor in
V . . mm
terests in America, and is.so regard
ed by the liquor dealers themselves.
The effect of the J)U1 would be to
withdraw the protection of the
United States government from
.those offenders who, under the shel
ter of the inter-state commerce act,
have sought to nullify the laws of
the several dry states by flooding
the states with alcoholic liquors.
Under the proposed act all such
liquors shipped into any state would
become subject to the laws and
police powers of that state. It
would not "prohibit all shipment of
liquor as its enemies claim, and
in fact, would prohibit no shipment
of any kind. But it would enable
a state to exercise the functions of
self-government, and prevent the
citizens of other states from doing
what it prohibits it own citizens
form doing. It would enable a state
to protect herself from those law
less citizens of other states vho
have so far defied her laws and
mocked at her authority.
But the mere passage by Con
gress of aiiy bill, however impor
tant, would not save us from the
inter-state liquor traffic. Undoubt
edly the same class of people who
have defied our state laws thus far
would attempt to evade them sti! -
and it is this evil that we must pre;
vent Something must he donp to
enable the state to enforce the laws
it already has, and to this end, I
hope all the friends of sobriety and
good government will frame and
put through the next legislature a
search and seizure act which would
eiable the proper officials to locate
all liquors unlawfully held and
bring the offenders to justice.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.
Senator Stubbs, of Martin, intro
duced a J)ill to submit to the voters
of the State, at the general election
in 1914, the proposition of "conven
tion" or "no convention," to revise
or amend the State constitution
and providing machinery lor elect
ing delegates and holding- the con
vention. 4 .
What is the necessity'of nutting
the State to this added expense?
If this constitution should be amend.
ec?f why not the General . Assembly
make the5; necessary- amendments
and submit them to the people for
ratification or calla constitution
convention and let the people elect
the members of that convention?
The amendments:' must haye the
approval of the people", before thev
