The relief that fanners in this part of the world want is relief from bur densome taxes. Ir Jackson county will show some of the spirit of "Old. Hickory," for whom it was named, it will get its main highway paved. Otherwise the result is in doubt. The I'nited Press tells us that ev ery family in the United States had #1.00 more ;o spend on Christmas trinkets this year than last. Did get your dollar? Some people still look u{K?n the last election as a transition from the church militant to the church trium phant. Our great and dry donate voted down a bill to make prohibition of-, fective by appropriating 274,000,000 tor it's enforcement; but in the same hour voted 60,000,000 refund for the steM trust upon its income taxes. From the way our next governor i- going al tout trying to improve farm conditions in the state, Mr. Gardner must also be a fanner. It pays, young man, to set a goal and strive toward ir. Max Gardner say himself that he has been a can didate for governor of North Caro lina all his life.

It' there are not fewer than 74 peo ple killed in traffic upon the streets and highways of N'orih Carolina <lur iug November 1929, we shall have made little progress as a humanitar ian state. K very child in Xorth Carolina is entitled to equal educational advan tages. No county should bear a Heav ier liurdeu than another to give them this, their right as North Carolinians. This is the problem that confronts the general assembly of 1020. HELD SHORT MEETING BUT WORKED HARD lialcigh, N. ('., l)ec. 2<i--Though the extension conference held at State College December 13 to 15, was the shortest on record for this grohp, much was accomplished. The newer agents had a week of training as they were required to come several days before the agents older in the service had arrived. How ever, promptly on the arrival of the entire force, the conference was or ganized and put to work on the prob lems now before the agricultural ex tension group. Committees were ap pointed to work on the more detailed matter; while the agents not so oc cupied heard the general lectures and class room instruction. lie|vor.s of work done last year were discussed and new ideas secur ed by a comparison of results. It was| decided that more attention would be given to 4-H club work and that, this work would be correlated with j similar activities with adult fanners and farm women. It was further dc-| cidcd that more work would be done with community and county groups rather than with individuals. Prcsi- ^ dent K. C. Brooks stressed this point j in his timely address before the( joint body of men and women. The, agents also discussed farm taxation, faint cerdits, farm organization, mar keting and similar matters having to do with the economic condition of farmers in the State. C. A. Rose, county agent of Hert ford county won the silver trophy, cup offered hy the News and Obser ver for the best informational ser-' vice conducted in a county during the past year. 0. H. Phillips of Stan ley county won second place. The agents honored Miss Maude E. Wal lace and .fames M. Gray, two extent sion workers leaving the service on January first. A memorial service to Allen G. Oliver and Miss Myrtle Swindell was also held. ?t. J. Love of Newton in Catawba eOnrity mode a profit of $20 per acre with his corn crop by lop dressing; .it with chilean nitrate of soda accord^ ing to a report by .T W. Hendricks, county agent. The Time Wilder, ^ V f > Some professor, I noticed the other day in the public prints, referred to man as the time binder. ' j r > I take it that what he meant is this ? ^ though, of course, being a professoi^he probably meantsomethmg else, something you and I cannot understand. It is never quite safe to sa; i J comprehend just what a professor means ; he rather resent . , but, as I was saying, what he meant, or might, could, would or should have meant, is this : i ? ' Stones, sticks and all lifeless things 'are fixed, helpless and cannot move of themselves. They are the bound; So are the plants and all vegetable forms of life. Animals are space binders; that is, they can move from placc to place, and by their power of motion can bind together f things remote. - i Man is also a space binder, because of his power of locomo tion; but he is more. He can remember things in the past, ' and he can look forward to events in the future. . , ... Hence he is a time binder. Man differs from the lower animals because he preserves his past experiences. He lives not only now, but all about his now flutter flocks of yesterday; from his now mountain he can see I long tomorrow vistas. lie is eternally planning. In proportion as he binds the fu I ture to him he becomes more of :i i:nn in every way. Many a silly word would be restrain. .1, nnd many a rash ! action would be prevented by a consideration ol t!'c future. Every deed is to be judged not only by its presv:>L n !vis ! ability, but by how it bears on our whole career. V '?> ' I 1 ' ? International Sunday School I^esson for December 30 1 JL REVIEW: PAUL THE WORLD CHRISTIAN ' ^ Golden Text ? Philipj>ian< 1:21 , , ' 9 *? Rev. Samuel D. Price, D.D. With this lesson a study of six months in the life of Pawl is concluded. I It will be helpful to look hack over the entire lite as well as of the events l covcred during the present quarter. Begin with Acts 19 for the quarter's . lessons and with Acts 7 for ^he entire life. For this quarter liegia at Ephesu9 toward the close of the second I missionary journey. There was a return to Uiat city after ,the trip to Antioch. Meanwhile Aquila and Priseilla had been active there. Two long and hard years were passed in Ephesus. He preached in the synagogue and later used the schoolroom of Tyrannus for his teaching. The climax came when even the great theatre was not large enough to hold the crowd that, in opposition, madly shouled for two hours "Great is Diana of the Ephesians." Then it was time for Paul to leave town again. He used the I land route in visiting the various cities inhere he worked during the second I missionary journey and went as far as Corinth. Four letters were written : I and II Corinthians, Romans and Galatians. *t When it was discovered that there w^ ji pfext to waylay him and get ifye large offerings for the poor Jews in Jerusalem the itinerary back to. Jeru salem was changcd from ship to land. A stop is made at Miletus acid the elders were called there from nearly Ephesus. Careful instruction was t given about the future care of the work in that city and vicinity Then in the midst of an intense prayer service fareweHs were said and the journey continued to Jerusalem where trouble surely awaited the Evangelist. At first effort was made to satisfy certain critics by making a conces sion ? sacrifice and payment of vows, but only trouble resulted. The arrest was made and there was no release for. more than four years. A declara tion of Roman citizenship alone -saved hjm from a severe flowing and the quick action of a lad made it possihlp to, avoid a death plot. There was safety at Cacsarea but it took two years to get through the hearings he-fare the accusers who came from Jerusalem, and before Felix, Festiis and Agrippa. The journey to Rome, where the ease was adjourned, was filled with dangers and climaxed in the shipwreck at Malta. ? i. ' *? . f ? Two years made another long period but much was accomp/ished as Paul was free to have audiences at pleasure in his own hired house, 1>ut always with a chain binding him to a Roman soldier'- Four more great letters were written meanwhile:. Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians and Philemon. There was a release which gayc opportunity for other itiner aries and a second arrest which v.-a^.closcd'V'ith decap^gpon. Throughout Paul was the victor as he wrought for Jesus Christ? *1 - ? THE REMEMBERED GIFT ?t i "Remember it? I should say I do'-'. The hip man's face beamed with hap py recollection. Someone had, in more or less of business way, spoken of The Youth's Companion. And just the mention of its name -so fax* as business was con cenied-broke up that meeting. But what fuu those busy men had swap ping recollections of the day.s when the arrival of The Youth's Compan ion was the hitjh spot of the whole week.

"ttrnj Uatrate" By Cecile Charming, gracious, aristocratic ?ETHEL BARRYMORE (in "The Kingdom of God") shows us the velvet mode in one of its most fluttering conceptions ? an ensem ble in dark green velvet with trim ming of white fox. A hand of the fur is applied in one-sided effect to the lower edge of the half-length jacket, and one skin is laid softly across the shoul ders. Beneath the coat the lines of the gown mold to the figure, gath ering low in the front to provide fullness for the skirt, which has a silghtly uneven hemline to conform with the dtw& lines of the coat. Fm Ujc, jtyU, lithe figure there is much inspiration to be gained from costume, which, in spite of its suggestion of richness, remains ex tremely simple, For the New School Frock To the girl in her teens no gift is more acceptable than the gift of ,an. exM? frock to carry back to school after holidays. Whether it be a now printed silk, a plain silk in one of the very latest shafties, a tweed ensemble or a "medium weight" jacket suit makes little, dif ference ? jjist so it's something new. These costumes are all i-qually smart and serviceable for the school girl's wardrobe. ______ ? ? ? ? , _ , New Sweater Styles The sweater, too, makes a most Acceptable gift for all who are fond' i>f sptffts.
