Mr. Herring is improving and it is hoped that he may soon be back at his work here, where he is greatly missed. From Safety Hints for Pedes trians—Never stop in the street to talk or look around. If some one calls you while crossing, remember your safety is more important than anything he may say. . DR. B. W. SPILMAN {Hi 1 ' !■ mT' /iifiirV Ir il * x tlfl Mask*, 1 • Jflßß * k A NEW DAY —— Verily we are living in an age different from all others. Every age has been different; in that respect we are like all other ages. But the people in America see new things in this new day. Whether for better or worse I am not at tempting to answer. But they are certainly different. ** * * During more than eight years the national government has been pil ing up debts into the billions, in creasing each year without a sem blance of any hope of paying them. I guess our legislators are adopt ing the philosophy voiced in the expression, “Let George do it.” Those who come after us may wor ry over debts or let those who bought the bonds worry. I read a book recently AMERICA GO BUST. I was reasonably sure it was some Republican going after President Roosevelt. But when I set in to read I discovered that it was written about the close of Hoover’s administration and was by a Democratic Congressman. What he was saying about Republican expenditures was a plenty and then some. All that Hoover’s adminis tration spent looks like thirty cents to what the Democrats have spent. It may be a wise policy. I am not discussing that. We are seeing a new day. ** * * We have plunged headfirst into Socialism. Nobody need be alarmed at that. What we are concerned about is that we shall place men in public office who have charac ter and integrity. The form of gov ernment should be changed to meet changing conditions but be sure the change is for the better, and that men of character are elected to make the laws and to execute them. It is the men who make the laws and the men who are given the task to enforce them which is of primary importance. ** * * We are in the era of government experiments. Had it not been for men who are willing to venture the world would still be in the ox cart age. We get some jolts with all of the experimenting which is going on but if it jolts in the right di rection, let it jolt. Our Uncle Sam has decided to provide a vast area with electric power and a bill is be fore Congress to extend this all over the United States. Since a fraction less than one percent of the people who use electricity have any say in who produces it we will watch with much interest to see Presenting Dr. Spilman THE RECORD makes no extravagant claims as to popularity or prestige. We have gone along, knowingly and contentedly “small town” in thought and word, trying to do our best for the section we represent —• one of the best in the state. We have from time to time offered comment and suggestion on matters which seemed relevant, and have accepted such meas ure of commendation or condemnation as was the result as all in the day’s work, and have striven to be neither unduly elated nor too much c3st down. Hut at this time we come with special pride, presenting to our readers as guest editor a man nationally even internation ally known as a preacher, lecturer, and author, Dr. Bernard Washington Spilman of Kinston. To us the fact that he is a personal friend means more than these. He has sent us the first of what we hope may be a long series of observations along lines somewhat different from strictly religious and denomina tional writings; and we gladly give space to what he says. Dr. Spilman’s style is so simple and clear that even a child can enjoy it; his knowledge so wide that the learned may profit by reading his articles. W'e congratulate ourselves and you. Large Crowd At Vocal Union The Vocal Union at Hopkins Chapel on last Sunday afternoon was attended by a large crowd both of singers and listeners. Taking part were the Wake Quartet; Kemp Quartet; Bunn Brothers Quartet; Corbett Family; the Perry Sisters, who sang duets; and choirs from Wake Cross Roads, Union Hope, and Hopkins Chapel. CLUB NEWS The Harris Woman’s Club met March 23 with Mrs. M. S. Clifton hostess. The president, Mrs. B. M. Stal lings, presided over the business session. The subject for this pro gram was Floor Finishes. Mrs. W. R. Young read an article on the Care of Rugs. Mrs. M. S. Clifton gave an interesting talk on Foods. Mrs. J. C. Floyd discussed the im portance of parent education. Special features were a talk by Miss Louise Weaver on floors and their proper care after they have been finished. Present were: Mesdames M. S. Clifton, F. W. Justice, O. V. Leigh, W. M. Alford, Perry, J. C. Floyd, J. T. Mann, W. R. Young, B. T. Bunn, B. M. Stallings, Misses Ollie Floyd, Ruby Cone and Louise Weaver. Refreshments were served by the hostess. who can do the better job, the cor porations which now have this in control or Uncle Sam who repre sents a majority of the people. The reason I say majority is because Uncle Sam is the government, and Uncle Sam may be Democratic at one time and Republican or some thing else at another time. One thing on which I am sure all Christians will agree that if Uncle Sam .takes over ail electric produc tion he should deal justly with the people who have invested their money in stocks and bonds of the companies now in the business. If the government takes over the manufacture of electricity and its sale, of course it will put out of business every public utility now in that business. Will it pay the companies for their investments? Not being a statesman, nor even a (Continued on back page) NUMBER 39 Singing Class Pleases Hearers The program presented by the Oxford Orphanage Singing Class at Wakelon last Friday night was considered by some to be the very best of all such entertainments given here. Fourteen children di rected by Mrs. Sadie T. Hutchinson delighted the audience with every number. Few children have the benefit of such careful, thorough training as was evidenced by the perform ance given here by the singing class; and few programs are made up of selections so carefully chos en. It would be hard to make a choice as to actors or numbers on the program; but “Humpty- Dumpty and Me,’’ by little Wini fred Mason was most spectacular ly beautiful. Troy Tucke'r in “Fisherman’s Luck’’ was almost distressingly natural in word and action, and Winifred Moore ‘‘On My Way to Hollywood,’’ gave the third of the features that appeared to please the audience most. How ever, “Oh, Doctor,” was scarcely behind these if not in the front rank. And when all was done so well, it is difficult to say what was best. The children and their director, with L. W. Alderman, manager, were entertained in Zebulon homes. It is to be regretted that there was not a larger audience present. Watch Your Step The work of changing the high way at the eastern side of Zebu lon has made necessary the detour ing of traffic. The temporary route leaves the highway at its intersection with Arrendall St. and turns one block further on, passing two sides of the J. M. Chevrolet place. This obstruction of the view, the narrowness of the side street, and the amount of traffic, make a danger that calls for care. Especially is this true when a large bus is traveling through town and must swing around the comer, or when some one feels an impetuous urge to hurry, be the risk what it may. Watch your step—and the cars that may be approaching. Patronize Our Advertisers.
