Progressive Farmer.
Scaooli te Assiit
A very progressive step has been
taken by State Superintendent Joy
nerof North Carolina in conjunction
with State Health Officer Rankin.
Health bulletins with the most im
portant subject about which children
should be taught are to be sent to all
the public school teachers of the
State and every teacher will be re
quired to give two or three -10-min-ute
or 15-minute health talks a week.
Public Health Week will also be set
apart in which some one vitally im
portant subject such as the preven
tion of tuberculosis, for example
will be treated, and a series of daily
talks, one for each day in the week,
will be given.
The Newcomer.
It is" said that the best test of a
neighborhood's courtesy is its treat
ment of the new comer. It is not
always desirable to form the ac
quaintance "of newcomers, as. all
newcomers are not desirable ac
quaintances. But it will not take a
very great while, or very close obser
vation to decide upon this. In many
neighborhoods,, especially in large
towns and cities,, the newcomer is
treated like an intruder, and some
times it-is years before she is recog

Announcement of a national tuber
culosis Sunday to be' held on April
24th in 215,000 churches of the unit
ed Ststcs was made yesterday by the
National Association for the Study
and prevention of tuberculosis. '
Following camp ligns against con
sumption that have been carried on .
in the churches of hundreds of cities.4
and sermons on tuberculosis that
have been preached before thousands
of congregations during the past
year, a movement has been started to
establish a permanent tuberculosis
Sunday, oh which it is hoped that
every one of the 33,000,000 church
goers in the United State will here
the gospel of health It is planned
to enlist the active co-operation of an-
ti-tuberculosis organizations, labor
unions, fraternal organizations, and
other bodies together with - the
churches in the movement.' The aid
of leading churchmen in many of the
principal denominations has already
been offered. All of the large inter
denominational bodies, such as the
Young Men'a Christian Association,
the Young Women's Christian Asso
ciation, the King's Daughters and
Sons, and the various young people's
societies are also in sympathy with
the anti-tuberculosis campaign.
It is planned that on April 24th tu
berculosis sermons shall by preached
in all the churches of the country.
Literature will be distributed to
members of the congregations, ' and
in every way an 'effort will be made
to teach that tuberculosis is a
dangerous disease and that it can be
prevented and cured.' .
Clergymen who desire to obtain
additional information in regard to
tuberculosis will be able to secure
literature from State and local anti
tuberculosis associations and boards
of health, as well as from the . Nati

Tie Ufa That Does Net Pay.
Suffering from attempt at suicide
a young American woman lying on a
cot in a London hospital gave as her
reason for the rash act that "Life
doesn't pay," and yet but a very few
years ago she ran away from home
because she "wanted to life.
In the interval between the elope
ment and attempted suicide, she Had
had her wish gratified. She had
seen all that the underworld had to
give tier, and-for a time she reveled
in its pleasures. ; Wine, excitement
and fast companions- ministered to
her morbid tasted. And then came
the inevitable result the realization
that such a life "doesn't pay," that
"there is only one end to it"
Speaking out of the bitterness of
her experience she exclaimed, "I've
seen women murdered just ss much
as if their throats had been cut.
I've seen them suffer knowing that
there is no turning back and that
there is no one to lean upon :J;",i
That is a sad story of a once beau
tiful girl reared amidst the refine
ments of a ' southern home, . and
whose brief career has been a tragic
failure because of her craving for
exciteement and her distorted views
of life. In this story which differs
from many others only because of
the once social prominence of the
young woman- There is that which
should prove sufficient warning to
many a girl, whose impressibleness
is liable to lead her to form wrong
views of life and to become, the Vic
tim of a stronger will. Standard

Some women make a bid for noto
riety by wearing fussy clothes and
saying things that are more surpris
ing than sensible.

. There la a class of people who live
in our country who do not want any
thing better than to be renters, who
will make fun of you 'when you try
to show them a better . way. They
have been raised-up fn ignorance
and want to follow on in the way,'
Such people as these are not really
fit ta till the lftnd wlth or without
an overseer, , for they do not care
how they till the land or treat the
stock or the man thaC rents to them,
moving from one place to another
each year, or two or -three times a
year. It would be better for the
country not to have such renters.
' On the other hand, '', the man who
through misfortune has to be a rent
er deserves better treatment as a
rule. I think that . it would be far
better for each man to run his own
farm or hire it done and superintend
the work directly or through another
employed for the purpose. He would
get better results from his crops and
keep his land in better shape. I like
the idea that we are held responsible
for the way we use the land . which
we live on or farm.' It behooves us
to live such lives that others might
follow on in our. footsteps, doing
greater things than we can do. , It
will be a great day for the South
when the renting system is done with
forever. ' -' ;;- vjf V ; ; . ,

. "We believe the time are all
right, and that the young men who
are continually finding fault with
them, are the ones in the wrong.
The real trouble, according to this
authority, is that the average young
man won't work.
He has got the insane notion into
his head that success comes by luck;
that men are made by opportunities
which either come to them or are
thrust upon them, and he waits for
luck or a chance to come along and
find him. Or he dissipates his en
ergies in profitless channels. In
stead of using every moment of his
time, he wastes hours in sensual
pleasures for which a young fellow
with the right stuff in him has no
time. ' Instead of defying and dis
missing: temptation, he courts it,
winks at it, plays with it Instead
of placing dress and amusements in
their, proper relative positions, he
takes them out.of their places and
lets them hold a wrong value in his
life. . Instead of using his time in
learning from other men, he wastes
his breath in idle lamentations. In.
stead of taking a sane view of condi
tions, and seeing with a clear mind
that as trade widens and opportuni
ties increase, he takes the mistaken
view that the rich are getting richer
and the poor poorer. These are the
conditions of mind and life, which
are keeping thousands of young men
down, and will keep them,
The Yorkville, S. C, Enquirer
puts it this way, and perhaps this
statement of ' the case will reach
some that have hot been -reached by
our' former statements: "Right
now, live pork on foot is selling at
from 10 to 11 cents a pound, corn
is worth $1.10 to $1.15 a bushel, and
flour is worth $7 a barrel with a
good chance of going higher, Fif
teen-cent cotton will not buy these
commodities at these prices, and if is
the part of wisdom for every farmer
to arrange to raise these things be

his cotton rop. Progressive

Stock exchange gambling was vig
orously denounced in an address de
livered at Troy, N.Y., by Supreme
Court Justice Wesley O. Howard.
Justice. Howard said: "While the
great men of our day are enacting
and enforcing the most drastic stat
utes and ordinances against Sunday
baseball, boxing matches, moving
pictures and tipping waiters, great
cankerous evils are eating at the
foundation stones of this republic.
While the extremest penalties are
being provided for the suppression
of penny-ante and kindred crimes, a
gambling institution rivaling Monte
Carlo in magnitude and audacity,
and rivalling it in wild uproar of its
conduct, in the colossal magnitude
of its stakes and in its astonishing
freedom from official interruption
is said to fluri8h in the very heart of
the metropolis. And while business
establishments are being wrecked
and innocent stockholders brought
to penury the authorities are lulled
into repose by the childlike hope of
the committee that this giant ren
dezvous of gambling will reform it
self,-While subtle and chimerical
objections are being made to an in
come tax to the common house own
er and the farmer . bend their weary
backs without hope beneath the
galling load of local taxation. And
while the doctrine of states' rights
debated by Calhoun nearly a century
ago is being resurrected and inter
posed between the plutocrat and a
federal tax, no statesman is racking
his brain to discovers similar doc
trine,' ancient and fanciful, to cast
between the taxpayer and the tax-
gatherer - at home, although his
heart be wrung by the woes of the
common people." Commoner.

: Some things that can not be cured
must be endured, but smallpox is not
0M thetn' " Ifc Catt prevented
and . ultimately uprooted.' It is
shame to endanger a whole commu
nity, because some few men are too
prejudice to be vaccinated. No se
rious danger attends proper vaccina
tion. A great many come very near
losing their arms, to hear them tell
it but did you ever see one who re
ally lost his arm? ; We are in favor
of compulsory vaccination.' We will
never be rid of periodic outbraks of
smallpox so long as we fail to apply
the only remedy for it knows to
medical science. In some cases a
law compelling everybody to be vac
cinated would work some hardships,
but as in many other thing, the good
such slaw would bring, would far
overbalance the evil. ' The law . must
be general to be really affective. A
general law compelling everybody to
vaccinate, will settle the smallpox
trouble in short order, and nothing
less drastic ever will. It is all right
to respect individual liberty so long
as it does not interfere with the com
fort, happiness and safety of others;
out when it does it becomes a me
nace to' society at large and should
no longer be respected. -Charity

You ve got to advertise if you
want people to know you're . on
earth," the Gorilla said. "It's the
lion's roar that makes him the king
of beasts. The person who makes a
big noise gets to the front" The
rabbit pondered these words and was
convicted. Some time lates he rose
on his hind legs in a thicket and
screamed. A coyote, learning of the
rabbit's whereabouts by his noise,
hopped onto him and ate him.
Moral; If you haven't got the
goods don't make any noise at all.
