Ljever held here closed Tuesday night.
fmWe can never exprss our appreciation
Klto our pastor, Rev A. A. Pippin of
I £ Wakefield, ar.d Itev. Fredrick N. Day,
Winston-Salem, for the splendid
they rendered us during our
days revival. Services were good
Atl.e entire meeting. Th re v ere ms ny
■conversions made. Same were young,
lv.hile others were mothers, fathers
land grandfathers, who stepped out and
1 1 gave their hearts to God .
Ij There were forty-one baptized last
[ Sunday morning. Several were re ]
j stored back to church and several
| came by letter. With this vision of a
N great service let us all pause for a
■ moment arid think —then conclude
EjS that more good work can be accom- i
H plished. We have others who haven’t j
m y e t come. We have several organiza
[■tions in our church namely : R. Y. P. j
■ u.; Y. W. A.; G. A. and Sunbeam !
' I Clubs. Some for the old and some |
[ I for the young. We have as fine, and
3 pure specimen of woman and man
-3 hood in some of our girls and boys as
R any community ever witnessed. So
2 now we should put forth a greater
1 effort to assist in clearing the com
2[munity of the menace by training our
selves to obey the laws of God. 1 hen
H when we reach our ripe old age we .
HI may draw near our chairs and par-1

'JI HER BITS TAKEN
BY INSURANCE MEN;
Most people consider insurance a
g"‘id thing because of the protection
it gives in case of death loss of health
cr property. Wise business men in
sure th'kr property against losses by
fire, Pghtning, wind -forms, floods,:
hail, etc. It is customary even for
musicians to insure their v< ices, arms,
hands or fingers against accidents
tiiat might rob them of their livehood.
Pad. rewski a few years ago insured
each of his fingers for SIO,OOO. In
ur. nee on the bow hand of Jan Ku
lulik cost him 51,500 a year.
Motion picture produces often take
out big policies on their stars players
especially on dangerous roles. A film
a few years ago carried $700,000 in
: uranec. Baseball managers also in
j sure the lives and limbs, of their stars, j
Beside regular insurance there is
j i great deal of freak insurance writ
j ten mainly by Lloyds of England, j
| They stand ready to insure even al
most every conceivable contingency.
They stand ready to insure even elec
tion bets. It has been said that they
will insure a house on fire betting
that the firemen wil lbe on the job
before it is destroyed. Frank in
surance is no more of a guess or a
gamble than standard insurance is. j
| The odds are figured with uncanny
j exactness and strange risks taken
pays well in the aggregate. If he
wishes a farmer may insure his crop
.-gainst damage by frost, hail, wind
rain or drought. At the time of the
police strike in Boston a few years
ago Lloyds wrote more than $8,000,-
001) of riot insurance in a single day. !

ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA I
during the list fiscal year had caus
ed the loss of $1,108,540, of which
about one-half has been recovered.
A recent $135,000 robbery near Chi
cago was the immediate cause for the
new order.
It will be recalled that at the time
of the prevalence of mail robberies in
' 1021 United States Marines were de
tailed to duty in gurrding the mails
for several months. Should the post
al clerks be unable to cope with the ]
situation, it is intimated that the
Marines will be called into action
again.
Long penitentiary sentences have
been meted out to *ls convicted mail
robbers in the past two years, but
the criminal element appears to be
undeterred by this fact. The only
protection which may be afforded the
mails appears to be through making
every mail ctir a fort, manned by
brave men with orders to shoot to
kill. That is just what the Post Os
! fiee Department means to do.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE
YOU JUST TRY IT
A hen is not supposed to have
Much common sense or tact.
Yet every time six* lays an egg
She cackles forth the fact.
A rooster hasn’t got a lot
Os intellect to show,
i But none the less most roosters have
Enough good sense to crow.
The mule, the most despised of beast
Has a persistent way
Os letting folks know he's around
By his insistent bray.
V
The busy little bees they buzz,
Bulls bellow and cows moo,
The watchdogs bark, the ganders
quack,
And doves ind pigeons coo,
The percock spreads his tail and
squawks,
Pigs squeal, and robins sing,
i And even serpents know enough,
To hiss before they sting.
But man, the greatest masterpiece
That nature could devise,
Will oft on stop and hesitate
Before he’ll advertise.
The codfish lays a million eggs,
While the helpful hen lays one;
But the codfish does not cackle
To inform us what she’s done.
And so we scorn thecodfish coy,
While the helpful lan we prize;
Which indicates to thoughtful minds
IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE.
Timely Tips
Sprinkle salt over the matting on
grass rugs before sweeping.
Equal portions of water and am
monia will remove varnish from
furniture.
Bacon sandwiches tire delicious
in the packed lunch yet so often
unthought of.
The colored oilcloth doilies are
practical for summer breakfast apd
luncheons.
Pure soap and cheesecloth are
best for removing finger marks
from doorknobs.
Black coffee containing a tea
spoonful of lemon juice will often
cure a blinding headache.
Detroit is taking a bootlegger cen
sus. Wonder what she’ll do if she
finds there are too many.
