THE RECORD PUBLISHING CO., Zebulon, North Carolina THE ZEBULON RECORD FRIDAY. OCTOBER 2, 1925 i M i.%, ■JA J. ;KM jl lV : THE BIG BATTLE Baseball Fans Wait !| ingthe Outcome of II r i i ri e n ond bones Now that the outcome of the Na ;i u:l an ! American League pennant races has become a mathematical eer t linty, Pittsburg and Washington are i free to concentrate their efforts upon preparation for the annual baseball |cl • io, which starts at Pittsburg, Wednesday, October 7. ('llnching of the pennants almost 1 siimrtaneously and a fortnight be i fore the close of the major league I season:' s a sharp contrast to the I closeness of both races last year S which left the outcome in doubt un-. j til the final few days of the c; m paigns. The contending rivals this ( season have ample time in which to ! give over-worked veterans a needed rest, patch up injuries and map out their battle strategy. There nm.y be a l.ttlc less “mas ter-minding” th; n usual in this year’s series, with John McGraw of the Giants missing from the picture for j the first time in five years, but Mc- Graw’s processes may be given a I counter-part by Fred Clarke, veteran 1 adv ser to the Pittsburg forces. Clarke, who was winning pennants with the old Pirates when McGraw ! first took control of the Giants, is credited with having done much of the deep-thinking for the new Na tional League champions. C'arke and Bill McKcchn e, man- I ager of the Pirates, will have a nim | ble-minded opponent in Stanley (Bucky) Harris, who has established himself as a strategist of the first I rank in spite of his youth and com [ parative experience. Harris was just learning to swing I a bat on the sand lots of his home town, Pittston, Pennsylvania, when Clarke was leading the Pirates to I their last pennant in 1909. j Harris holds high respect for the ability of the Buccaneers, but is | nevertheless confident that the ex- I perience and steadiness of his outfit will carry the Senators to their sec ! ond straight world’s championship. • Harris figures that if his club I beats the Pirates it wPI he one with hight-handed pitching, a view which also is shared by McGraw. Walter Johnson and Stanley Cove leskie are the pitching aces upon | whom Harris will place his main re | lianee, with not a few hopes also | j resting on Alex Ferguson, veteran acquired from Boston, and Fred Mar berry, rescuer-in-chief of the Wash ' ington staff. The consistency of the world's j champions figures not a little, too, i in Harris’ calculations. “My club has always been at its ! | best in the pinch, when the stakes j were highest,” he says. “I know I 1 can count upon my men when it j ] comes to a showdown.” This abil.ty of the Senr-tors, born | of veteran experience, will have bat ting punch and speed to combat in opposing the Pirates. The clash ol these qualities promises to be of out standing interest and importance in the battle for baseball premier honors. “FILIAL AFFECTION” In going through cemeteries we | very often see beautiful monuments | erected at father’s or mother's graves. 1 We judge by this that the children ! of the deceased must have thought I a great deal of their mother or fath j er, as the case may be. To put so much money into a memorial for them. If we want to show respect to father and mother we might spend a 1 ttle less money after they are dead and a little more attention while j they are alive. Young people sometimes get the idea that some other place is better than home. But I want to tell you ! there is no place this side of the gates j of pearl sweeter or more living than ; home. Do you write home to your j j parents often ? They clothe and educate you and ! you are spending nights in gambling i j and dr.nking as some are doing. If a telegram was sent them that you were down with some dreadful di sease they would come to you. They [ would be willing to take the disease into their half-bent bodies and die ! for you. If you scorn and scoff at fat!: r and mother you will have a| | hard road to travel. Some of you are guilty of murder,' for if you go home late night after night, you ar e increasing the gray hairs and killing father and mother, inch by inch, which is tire worst sort of murder. There are some homes, perhaps loth of them, where a mother or father is looking up to their oldest ; hoy to comfort them in their lone'i ness and great affliction, and this * . j". ijuiss" i. !'•’ I . • ,e.

You I bm.dd never neglect your mother, her hoi t stay here on earth because | •mi he will have to leave this earth. | ■u c. a never repay the debt you j vo i'ath ■ and mother. I don’t be-, lieve we realize what a father and mother means to u. until they ar«‘! ailed from us. Christ gave an example of how j , e should appreciate and care for | atlier and mother, while on the cross. He said “Behold my mother.” | tie knew he was going to de and cave his mother, but he made ar rangements for some one to take i •are of her. There are parents in j he poorhouse today that if their hildren had done their duty would ave had a happy home today to; pend their last days in together, 'onie day it will not be necessary to rry about writing to them for hey will be beyond the reach of ■our ' loving message. You will think of It all when the hands that toiled for you are folded and when ■ heir eyes that watched over you ire closed forever, when their bodies ; bent with toil for you. Then you' will realze what they meant to you 1 is never before. Always speak a word of cheer to the “old, for we don’t know how long we are to live,” and some day we, too, will be old then some of you would not like to be treated as you have treated your mother and father.—Mrs. Sterling Mitchel, R. 3, Zebulon, N. C. DELIGHTING THE SOIL Seneca, a Roman philosopher con- ' eled his followers; “If thou hast two loaves of bread, sell one and buy hyacinths, for bread nourisheth the body, but hyacinths delight the soul.” It does not alwrys take all of the other loaf to funrinsh “delight for the soul,” and that person who has j an inborn appreciation of the beau- j tiful does not need to be advised to i spend some part of his substance in I beautifying h’s surrounding, There | are those people in the world to whom I it is just as necessary that there be fresh flowers on the table, at least! with some degree of regularity, flow-j ers and shrubs in the yard, pictures I on the wall, etc., as that there be j supplies in the pantry. That one I who does not appreciate those things j which “delight the soul” should try > to cultivate such an appreciation.— j Exchange.

ANNOI N< EML N'T We Wi h so Ar'iounce to The Pub lic. That on November Is), 1?*25, We Will Cons didale Our Practice, And Our Terms Thereafter Will Be S'- <!; (.’a h or Satisfactory Terms. We fel by di ing a consolidated piactice v. e will be i blc to serve the j übiic belter la several ways. Fir t, by our present plans we ex pect or.e to be available at all times to handle any emergency. Secondly, we feel that we have been here long tnaugh, should you have a: y preference you can css that aside, because at all times hot of us wi'l have your health and wei fare at heart. Thirdly, in doing a consolidate** pr; ctice we hope to build up a good office practice by equipping our of fices better and better from time to time and trying to keep one man in the office all the while. The business world does business in a bu iness-like manner and we are forced from past experience to put our work on business liases, by so doing we will be able to meet our expenses and obligations by demand ing cash or suit; hie terms. Having served the public in our niofession for a number of years and having been paid poorly for our ser vices, due to the fact that we have not limited credit to any one, we are forced to adhere to cash or satisfac tory arrangements. It is necessary that we receive pay for our services in order for us to meet our financial obligations and avoid embarrassment, for we cannot pay our creditors with our work on our hooks unpaid. It seems to be the belief of most of the people of this community, that a doctor has plenty of money and therefore will not make any sacra f ee to pay the doctor who has been called at all hours of the night, rain ar shine, and who responded prompt ly in time of trouble. If this com munity will stop and meditate, they will see that we have been forced to the above terms, due to the fact that vve are the first thought of in sick ness and last thought of in health, and only paid after all other wants find pleasures are gratified. We have no intention of placing a hardship on any one for health is the most essential thing in this life and we do know that provision can he made for medical attention just as you provide for your living sup plies and in so doing it will be just as easy to pay the doctor as it is to pay any one else. We do sincerely hope, by this con solidation, that we will be of greate service to our community. BARBEE & FLOWERS. Zebu'on, N. C. Sept. 25,-6t.
