Says the Salisbury Post editorial ly : Johnson county folks have again come together for the purpose of '’thanking God for the year's crop of blessings. Once before the county caused a lot of talk because of the fact that her good people thought it well to come together and render thanks to God for the good things the year had brought them. Johnson county is a good one. It is a r ! cta agricultural county and rich in good, old fashioned honest folks, and with a bountiful crop and other blessings so clearly at hand, it is nothing strange that there should bo an honest con fession and an outpouring of thanks. When we stop to think of the won derfully big ami significant fact that the I'nited States is the richest na tion oil earth, seemfiugly the one in highest favor and with the most to be thankful for, we are astonished that we give so few evidences of our thankfulness. America ought to be on her knees much in expression of thanks that the nation has so much to be thankful for. Seemingly the most favored people of all times are not concerned in expressing appreciation. In this connection it is interesting to note that in most instances jm><>- plet are on their knees in supplication rather than in thanksgiving. Duriug the drought persons in various parts ■ of the country have held prayer ser vices in which ideas for rain were made. We wonder how many of these persons would have thought to have a thanksgiving service if there had been no drought. I « SOME EMPTY JAILS. jf.t Crime seems on the increase in this Y. f country all right, but it is a fact that in some parts of the country there is | t bo little crime that jails are empty and officers have little to do.

Nothing can keep a nation down whose people love to work and keenly appreciate the importance of saving. "M ith the people of France rich and the government a bit put to it to make ends meet, there is no occa sion for concern. But if your gov ernment were rich and your people poor there would he every reason for anxiety about the future financial stamina of France. "Your industries are showing an activity and doing a volume of busi ness never known in France, before tile war, and everywhere and in every way one sees in France an awakening, a revitalization, which coupled with enormously greater possession of r«.v materials and increased territory in evitably means a bigger and more vi tal France than ever existed before."

C., Aug. 26.—Fortfte second time in less than a week white robed figures, effectively masked in paraphernalia and silence, passed last night through the streets of Rock Hill, this time with a purpose evi dent. For in front of at least half a dozen houses, as the procession ! moved away, crosses of crimson hue , were burned, their significance in some cases at least unquestioned. ' Reputed leaders of the Ku Klux! Klan today remained silent. The procession of upward of twelve auto-1 j mobiles, filled with robed and masked men. was supposedly composed of j members of the Invisible Empire. I A police officer who witnessed the I i burning of crosses before the houses, cue on Ebenezer Avenue, one on. Union Avenue, one on .Lucas street, j i one on Hope street, and others in va rious parts of the city, 4 said that from seVeval had come unfavorable reports to police headquarters. The signifi cance of the burning crosses was a matter of conjecture. Tlie procession was first observed as it moved into the city from the York county fair grounds, on the northwestern extremity of the city, where evidently members had gath ered. It passed through the most respectable residential section of the city. After planting the burning emblems of mysterious but of appar ently sinister import before the houses, the procession moved slowly through practically every cotton mill village I in the city, and. wended its way back to the fair grounds. There it sup posedly disbanded. The robed figures during the latter part of last week created a sensation as they passed through all sections of the city, and into many rural com munities. The sensation last night was increased in some districts, fiow ever, as the second procession within a few days passed. It was rumored that the activities last week were a silent threat to those engaged in whis key traffic. The theory, however, was never authenticated or denied. ORGANIZE AN ARMY TO PICK THE COTTON Department cf Labor and Printing Plains to Pick All Cotton By No vember. Raleigh News and Observer. A mobile army of from lO.ftOO to 1.i.U00 cotton pickers will be organ ized by tlie State Dejiartment of Labor and Printing with avowed in tention of getting the cotton picked i« (ejrery field: in North (,'aroliua by the first of ‘November, it was an nounced yesterday by Frank D. Grist. State commissioner of labor and priuting. Bad crop conditions in the western part of the State have created a sur plus of labor there. Mr. Grist said, and the mobile army will be organ ized from men left idle on farms where crops have been burned up by drought. By utilizing the labor of the western part of the State, the fine cotton crop of the eastern see tiou will be uuirkly and efficient ly picked. Mr. Grist stated, a Mr. Grist and C. L. Ileddingficld. newly ap|»ointPd assistant director of the I nited States Employment Serv - ice, will go into the field iinmediate ly to organize the huge army of eot ,l ton pickers. 1 In picking the cotton a community system will be used whereby the army will move into one community, f completely pick the crop there atid i then move on to another community, r Tile plan has worked out in Har j nett county and Mr. Grist, who went i there reeently to confer with regard 1 to it, believes that it can be sac s cessfully used throughout the State. The mobile army is expected to not , only provide all necessary labor for t the picking of tlie phenomenal cot . ton crop of this year but it is be . lieved it can be done of a smaller , than usual cost. r The Department of Labor and 1 Printing under Mr. Grist organized a smaller mobile army of the har , vesting of the truck crop early this . summer with great success The poor ? crop conditions in the west are ex . peeted to make the securing of farm laborers easier than under usual eon , (lit ions Time For Thanksgiving. ■ Rocky Mount Telegram. t ilizens of Nashville have taken the initiative in culling for a gennerui county-wale service for Thanksgiving for the bounteous crops which the i section has enjoyed this season and ■ which it is now about to harvest.

When her inferior strength gave out she forestalled his robust pretensions to the spoils of victory ty taking refuge in shy confusion; ind—she selected and picked the fairest daisy within sight and stuck It into his buttonhole with a pos lessive little pat. They were in love, candidly and tompletely. Caroline for days had been sus pecting the extent of her attachment (or Bob. When he had come to her xt the gate this morning she felt lure of it; and now, swept from her feet by the indirect ardor of his wooing, she took the miracle of mu tual love for granted. By noon they had gained the sum mit of distant Starling Hill, the ane luxuriantly verdant spot in all that hard mountain land. The eac :ess of their exuberance had toned down to a sober appreciation of one mother's presence. Bob had for- i L... Bob reached for her hand. She (ave it to bim willingly. 1 gotten—that night before. It was hard to believe that the threat of trouble would not blow away. The • past seemed very remote and the living present exemplified in this vital, overflowing girl at his side, was so real and wonderful; God was to palpably in His heaven, that all seemed right with the world. They were constantly stealing shy glances of admiration, one at the Dther. Caroline felt a definite irre sistibility running away with her tool-headedncss when she looked at Bob in his strong and handsome youthfulness, and listened to his en thusiastic interpretation of his own moods. “There are girl days and hoy days,” he told her once. “Bold, blustery March days are boy days; fare, warm, soft June days are girl 3ays—and today is the rarest June day of all, because it is like you. ¥bu are its distilled essence!” Caroline, with a little gasp of de light at the perfection of it, chose a tool dell-like recess under a thick letting of high-limbed pines as an ideal spot in which to lunch. Bob fumblingly helped her to set out the picnic spread, marveling at the thoughtful choice behind the dainty delicacies she had brought, and lost | in visions of a sort he had never had : before—visions of a life together I with this slender girl in a white cot i tage. I After lunch they stretched In luxurious ease at the edge of the grove, where daring and steady old trees grew dangerously close to the brink of a precipice. In drowsy, elo quent silence they watched the vyhije powderpuff afgosies of the i summer sky dropping serenely to ward the far horizon. Presently Caroline teased. n . .. Ponds Drying Ep.

I “You’ve done everything you threatened yesterday you would do, except one thing, Bob——you’ve eat en pickles and you’ve watched the clouds sail by overhead—but ” Bob reached for her hand. She gave it to him willingly, gladly— and for another long while they were silent in the pulsing thrill of love’s firgt holding of hands. Bob leaned closer to her, on his elbow, and brushed hot lips caressingly across the back of her hand; it was like a spark that set up between them a flowing of magnetism that could no longer be denied. An in stant later, lips to lips, they were straining into one another’s arms. Still in the madness of that first kiss, Bob gradually became aware that an intangible inward pricking was alloying the pure strength of his joy; irveiuible hands were drag* ging at him from behind, unseen bars burned his lips, unvoiced words grated harshly in his ears. “I’ve searched for you all these J years—l love you more than ever—” j Frantic, Bob released Caroline ' and jumped to his feet, striding away to the cliff edge where he I stood tensely, with his chin pressed I down on his breast and his hands • opening and closing spasmodically. , : Caroline, who had given herself freely and passionately to the em- , : brace, sat up limply, quivering un- ' ' der the pounding of the stalled heat i in her veins. “Bob, what’s the matter—Bob, dear?” in a frightened, embarrassed 1 quaver. for perhaps half a minute Bob did not answer; did not, indeed, even look toward Caroline. ’ He nev. er forgot what he suffered in com ing to the decision that brought him back, straightforward and manly, to his knees on the ground beside Car oline, facing her and telling her, in a discouraged and hopeless voice: “Caroline, I must till you of my i past life—” Caroline smiled in relief. So that was all 4 Then she smiled and said in a quick display of faith and trust fulness that caused Bob’s eyes to lower in self-abased estimation of his own unworthiness: “I love you for yourself. Bob— not for your past, however silly that may have been—” . ‘‘But you don’t understand—you don’t know, Caroline! I must tell you—You cannot help but know, even from the short time that you have lived in Crater City, that I’m a person there tinder a cloud of 3e- crccy and mystery—” Caroline had all the woman in | love s lack of jealous curiosity; j which sprang from the keenly nega- I tive, matter-of-fact philosophy as ■* as the sex that it would be better o for her peace of mind if she learned nothing more about him than she aready knew; then, what she did s not know would not worry her. She i leaned close to him, smiling, and - patted a warning finger on his lips. ’ There now, there is no mystery 5 to me except the miraculous mys . tery of our youth and love. For the ■ re sL I'm not interested in any of 1 . C , r * ter Cit y’s P et mysteries. But it’s a wonder most of the cats there • aren't dead, if curiosity is as deadly to the tabbies as tradition would . have us believe!” This generosity of spirit instead I of having the intended effect of reas suring him, only served to make . him unhappy and miserable, stub i bornly determined to go through with his revelations. This was in his period of transition from his ele vated mood back to his oppressed level of the sleepless night, and if he had been able to have his way a middle ground might have been at ained by their newly confessed love. But Caroline, thinking that she was acting for the best in saving Bob whatever pains or heart-throbs might be involved in the explanation he wanted to make, refused stead fastly to hear it. Before the matter could be argued to a conclusion, a sudden and startling interruption came in the form of an ear-splitting automobile siren on the road that ran on the other side of the grove, about a hundred yards from the , thickly-shrubbed cliff edge where Caroline and Bob were seated. Because this was an unfrequented | road at best, traversed only occa sionally by mountaineers’ flivvers, I and because the noise was so obvi ously different from the usual auto- • mobile horn and so jflainly an alarm signal of some sort, it brought the lovers to their feet.
