..ed the class; speaking first of the im
portance of the atep which meant the
breaking ' entirely , away from the
world, if success was to crown their
work in the ministry. He urged each
to becomes yoke-fellow with Jesus
Christ, and said that if they would
'do thia, it would matter not how
many difficulties came Into their liver
, Jesus Christ would he'p them to over
come them' and that He would bear
V the greater part of every burden of
life. The roadnpon which. they were
entering he said "was-a marvelous
V road -and bad. its beginning at the
"cross oir Calvary. ' . ' : -
- He called attention aluo to the fact
. that the Methodist . church, unlike
aeme of the other denominations,
makes no contract with her preachers
and promisee them nothing in the we v
of support, but that if ber preacher.
are faithful, they never lack eupport
or for necessary things in life.
The bishop also urged the mem
bers of the claw to be energetic and
never to be-.trifflingly employed,- tell
' 1m? them fo be found in-their homes
at all times when their work did not
demand they should be elsewhere.
He spoke also of the importance
of the use of chaste language by the
ministry, and said that a preaclwr
with a filthy mouth, on? -who tells
filthy jokea, Is' an utter disgrace to
. tbo church. He said in ibis connec
tion that he wag glad ti Twteve thatj

ment waa made today from beadquar

from its New York office. . -
. So carefully baa the aale been or
ganised throughout the country that
with the exception of the States of
Florida, Oklahoma, Nevada' and Ida
ho, Red Cross Seals will be oa aale ia
almost every city, town, village and
uamlet of the United States and ev
en ia Hawaii, Porto Rico and the
Canal Zone. "- ' .
The seals will be sold from drag
stores, department stores and other
kinds of stores and shops, from post
,tMetf hotel lobbii M.

agentsHbandliiig the aale in this way
aggregates over 25,000, while tho ac
tual number of individuate engaged
m thia aale almost entirely volun

ciety leaders-in almost every large
eity of the country, notably Pitts
burg,' Brooklyn, Cleveland, Chicago,
Cincinnati, San Francisco- and else
where are taking a leading part ia
this campaign. ;
. The American Red .Croes has al
ready printed for the work over' 85,
000,000 seals and probably, the edi
tion wll number 100,000,000 before
the end of this campaign. Fully 10r
000,000 pieeea- of advertising litera
ture have already been sent out, and
several million more are being dis
tributed from local and stato agen
cies throughout the country. It is
planned to make the campaign this
year the largest that has ever been
held. If the anticipation, of the anti-tuberculosis
workers are realised,
no lets than $400,000 will bo obtain-
d from 4he aale of Red Cross Seals.
Practically all-of the. money remains
in state or city where tbo seals are
sold, only a very small percentage of
it going to pay for .the cost of the
printing; and distributing the seals
and for thaespaaiw of running .the
campaign. vvw:,;. -;'. i'ik'. ''

It takes money to build good roads
a lot of money sometimes end it
takes money to keep them in repari.
Tbe cost of making and keeping tbe
roada good scares a great many men
and agreat many commonitiea, that
would , really like to bare good roada,
so that they just give the matter
up and decide, to get. along the beet
tney can with tbe poor roads, they
nave. - - . - ::-;:-u.-.
Andas Uncle Remua would aay
'right there ia. where they drop their
molasses jug," for the bad road lev
ies a tax on them as high, or even
higher than would be levied for
good road. There is no escape from
paying it, either, because a man aim
ply must use the public highway if
he doe8 not, lie will pay still higher
i i -m i ; m - ,
iu in me loss- oi nusiuesa ana socuu
opportunities. -
The taxes levied lor roads seem
pretty steep at times, but they are
seldom as bad as the taxes levied by
roada. Then, the tax levied for roads
will result in constant improvement
if it is judiciously expended, while the
tax levied by the bad road lor it is
the bad roada which levy these taxes
results in nothing at all' It is "just
gone" at the year's end, and the old
steep, muddy, horse-tinng, time-eon-
suminir labor wasting road ia sun

tribution from the men who travel
over it. ' - - '
A man may kick all he choose over
paying taxes for i good road, but if
he, lives on a bad road, ne pays
tai to this road every time he drives
over it. - ;-."

To rora a State Debating Unionj
Psacmacy Classes Organized.
- Other News, ' . .
Chapel Hill, Nov. 25. The move
ment Uunclied by tbe literary socie
ties of the University of North Car
olina a few weeks ago to -form a
State-wule debating union of . the
high schools of North Carolina has
thua far met with admirable success.
Tbe plan which provides for the for
mat iou ol a net-work of schools for
Uimulatinz debating in tbe second
ary schools baa already been respond
ed to by 43 representative schools
of the State. The list include- the
high schools of Raleigh, Charlotte.
Salisbury, Statesville, Concord, Win
ston-Salem, Greensboro, Washington,
Hendersonvule, Oxford. Leuouvand
other foremost school in the State.
The committee promoting this de
bating union have been active in ar
ranging the query to be debated, the
prize that is to be awarded, and otb-'
er technicalities towards making
the union a thorough-going one. The
prize, nominally the "Ayeock Mem
orial Cup," will be contributed by
the local chapter of the Tua Kappa
Alpha debating fraternity, which
chapter is composed of intercollegi
ate Carolina debaters.
The North Carolina Drainage As
sociation will be iu session at Ral
eigh on the dates of November 26
27. The University will bo repre
sented by Prof. William Cain, profes-1
sor of mathematics. He is interest
ed in tbe furtherance of work of
thia nature, and his advices on the
subject will be altogether worthy of
consideration at this meeting of tbe
drainage association. He will ad
dress the Association on the subject
The Relation of the. University to
the Public Works of the-State."
The debating union- of tbe Univer
sity has recently consummated plans
for triangular debate, during tbe
month of April,, between the Univer
sities of North Carolina, . Virginia
and John Hopkins. A new schedule
of debates- by the University of
North Carolina recounts its notable
achievements in the field of debate.
In the sum total of thirty debates
witt noted universities of Pennsyl
vania to Louhiana, Carolina has lost
only nine. This is a record unsur
passed in Southern universities. '
In a race contest held by the track
deoartment of the University last
Wednesday, a member of the fresh-
men class won the medal a the awift-
petitors. Tbe winner made the mile
run' within 4:58' 3-3, of time.
