Your patrons should be advised of facts and vital import ance of earthquake insurance for all classes of property. Ralph B. Ives, President Disastrous Flood The Dayton (Ohio) flood of 1013 was, in the ni tin, caused by a record breaking rainfall, which was due to the meeting of three opposing air i currents, one from the west, another a cold stream from the northeast, the third a warm current from the south. The flood was accentuated by the eon ; ditions of the rivers flowing through tiie city and also by the bursting of reservoirs in central and western Ohio. i Four hundred and fifteen lives were lost, and the property losses amounted to $180,000,000. Caring for Books Books kept in glass-fronted book | cases are subject to attacks from book j worms, m alts, etc., in greater degree i than if oif€bpen shelves. To preserve | your books from these posts sprinkle ! the shelves occasionally, say once ev ery six months, with half an ounce of \ camphor, half an ounce of powdered | bitter apple (well mixed together). I Do not keep books in a very warm room. Gas light affects them very much.

Ninety per cent make the messes and 10 per cent are served out with mops. I was reading a novel called “KeddjT the other day. I’m told it’s the best picture of modern Oxford that has ever been done.

Aluminum Rivals Steel Aluminum was merely a laboratory curiosity a generation ago, but today it is a real rival to copper and steel and the center of one of the largest individual industries. Besides being used in hundreds of household articles it is finely ground for making paints, is necessary in airplane and dirigible construction and is used as cables for high tension transmission. The out put of the industry in 20 years has grown from nclning to hundreds of millions a yea"-. Christianity in China ; It cannot be definitely stated who j was the first Christian missionary to China, since a tablet found in 781 A. D. Indicated that Nestorinn missionaries operated in China as early as 505 A. D. There are, however, no definite rec ords. Tiie first definite record is that j of Friar John of Monte Corvino, a i Franciscan friar who went alone to j Chinn in 1295 shortly after the return of the Polo family to Europe, and he remained in China for many years, when his effort was reinforced by the pope of Rome and he was consecrated archbishop of Cambalin (Peking). Lighting for Pictures Every picture has a right to the best light that can be foufld for it. It is often true that a wall space on which there is not the right light for one picture is quite the proper place for a picture with different colors or details. While vivid flower pieces and gar den scenes, sunlit landscapes and bright interiors do much to enliven | a somber corner of a room. There is no picture which may not be seen to better advantage if well lighted. (This I does not mean glaringly lighted.) The Maid*a idea of Jt One theory of compensation is that a person should lie paid for his work ac cording to its difficulty and not accord ing to the skill with which lie per forms It. A woman was a convinced adherent to that theory. A lady was about to engage a maid, “It seems to me,” she said, “that yon ask very high wages, seeing that you’ve I had no experience.” “Oli, no, mum,” answered the girl earnestly; “you see, it's much balder Work when you dou t know how.” A man who leads a double life gets through twice as quick. The best way to get down to work is early. “CO-OPERATION” IS NEEDED FOR SUCCESS Don’t Re a Knocker, Eat Boost Your • Own Town t 4 To The Editor of The Record: This is a big sounding wer<*, fcut when understood it is very simple in meaning yet often difficulty in putting into practice. It means “working to gether,” a thing that every communi ty ought, to do. One thing Zebulon needs more is just this spirit when it comes to matters of community inter est. Many small towns lose or fail o get thing", that would boost and build of the lack of appreciation of corking together. If our people had pulled together, "•ould not the oil mill, that should he a profitable business, have been rebuilt? If we would even now get together, work together, could we not get the hosiery mill in operation again ? This spirit and interest and effort is what brings enterprises to a town and keeps those already in oper ation going with a healthy vigor. The VVakelon spirit has largely made our high school and this spirit among teachers and patrons will meke it a bigger and better school. Do we want a tobacco market —one that will help our community, then let everybody, whether he grows to bacco or not, work for it. Are there ••oads we want, or streets to be im proved or any other matter of public interest and concern to be done ? Then let everybody get together and work together to the end that these things may be realized. Families have been broken up, towns put on the back list, all because there was so much selfishness, lack of public pride, indif ference and indolence. Flowers planted, shade trees set, sidewalks smoothed, and many other , things could be done if our peoplel', would wake up generally and do thesij things. It does not take taxes to <. things like these, but if every man would “begin over against his own house” our tow n would be accom plished. Now that we have a means of communication in The Record, Jet us use it to stir up sentiment and in-- terest in those things that will adver tise our town as a good place to come and see and live. The knock that gives a town the black eye usually gives the prospective comer a blind eye. Let us train our children to boost our town, and let each parent set a good, strong healthy example of how this should be done. Let’s have a Zebulon spirit, one that will find everybody talking, boosting and work ing for Zebulon. Let each citizen lose sight of his own personal preference and get behind—no, INTO every good movement—social, religious, commer cial, intellectual—that will help our town and community. All this means that we must, to grow and build, have unity of purpose and effort, we must work together, there must be co-oper- i ation among our people from the poor est to the richest, from the smallest to the greatest. All of us can do this,; then let each get on the job—the most important thing just now ahead of us. Don’t fall out, if you can’t lead in the parade. Don’t be a knocker. The man and women that are lifting the world up ward and onward are those who en courage more than criticise. Don’t follow in the footsteps of the/ loafer, said Bob Burdette. It is better* to saw wood at two bits a cord, thari to whittle at a whittling match and! abuse the government. - All of which means to say that” there is a place, a work something to \ boost and build our community which every one may do. Here’s the hand, head and heart of your citizen to this end. Reach across.! friend, and let’s give a long pull, a? strong pull, for the best BEST' TOWN of all, our HOME TOWN. , 1 A. S.
