This do and thou shalt live.—Luke 10:25, 27. 28. FIND JOBS AT HOME. We see from The Charlotte Obser ver that while ‘‘during the year ended June 30, the United States Civil Ser vice Commiss’ou held examinations for 970 different occupations" and ‘‘while the Tar Heels constitute two and-a-half per cent of the country's population, they developed less than one-half per cent, of civil service ap plicants.” William C. Denting, presi dent of the commission, thinks this fact is a rather remarkable one and j he goes into detail to show that resi- 1 dents of North Carolina do not rush for federal jobs. He says that during | tin' year, 6.353 applicants in the en tire country were examined for sten ographer and typist positions in Washington. Just 49 residents of the ! State of North Carolina were exainiu- j ed for this class of work. Considera bly les- than one per cent of the ap plications came from North Carolina, whereas North Carolina has nearly two and one-half per cent, of the pop ulation of the United States proper, as shown by the census of 1920. Another class of positions for which cligibles have been in demand is that of assistant examiners in the Patent Office at Washington. During the I year ended June 30. 1924, 656 pet | sons were examined in the entire country for these positions. Only one of these was a North Carolina resi dent. Mr. Denting would not be surpris ed that North Carolina people ore not after civil service jobs if he were I more familiar with conditions ~n North j Carolina. Our young people can find stenographic work at home and as a rule they have shorter hours and get more money. In addition they cun stay at home aud enjoy life in the best State in the Union. Our industrial plants need hundreds of ycung men ami young women us bookkeepers, stenographers and for other office work. In addition there is demand for the same class of work ers in our business houses, iu our hospitals, imour schools, and iu other enterprises. As a rule the young people of the Tar Heel State can find plenty of got id employment without leaving the Btate.

He said: BjO "Just how much the immense iu- Kcreuse in cigarette consumption owes ■K; a ' to women nobody knows. Ordinary observation, however, convinces one that cigarette smoking by women is be coming more prevalent with every passing year. The slender, delicate ly formed lady's cigarettes, are no longer affected by the girls of today. The vast majority of the yvomen smok ers are going in for the common gar den variety of cigarettes—the popu j lar brands that retail at 20 for 15 , cents, aud are sold ip the familiar cup ! package. In the early days the few women of good character who smoked did so as they would lead a dog or wear a comb—because it seemed to be 1 the smart thing to do. The present day woman smoker simply likes to bacco. She smokes just as a man does, and her preferences run in the same direction. Observers in the | trade believe that every 20th Ameri- ( can woman above the age of 20 now , smokes either occasionally or regu- ) larly.” ] No one can deny that Mr. Werner is right. His statements cannot be . successfully contradicted. Women go ' into the drug stores and get the fav orite brands just as the men do. The , special brands, most of the time mild- , er than the* regular kind, are uo 1 longer needed in great quantities. t Eighteen years ago. we are told, i the production of cigars and cigar ettes ran neck and neek about 7.000.- 900. Now about the same number of t igars are being made while the pro duct n of cigurettes has increased to 55.000.000.000. That certainly can be taken as an indication of but one , tiling—that more people are smoking and tha{ many of tlicnf are wonion. ; And these women are not smoking , just for the fun of following a style. , They are smoking because they Alike • the taste of the tobacci) just as a man r likes it. They are cigarette smokers iu the strictest sense of that word 1 and as the habit spreads among them we shall see still a greater increase in the number of cigarettes manufac tured. 1 ( LI LARES WOMEN WORSHIP FASHION 1 Dr. Johnson Beg : ns Ser'es of Services at First Prcsbyt Van ChuTh. Ra e'gh News and Observer. '■'l9e most tragic thing in the \v rid is the terrible degeneracy that has come among our women in these lat ‘ ♦er days because of the blind worship I of Fashion,” Rev. Albert Sidney ' Johnson, pastor of the Frst Presby terian Church of Charlotte, declared 1 Sunday morning in his sermon at 1 ‘lie First Presbyterian Church "I * speak as the son or r. •Confederate general, but tSiere is the shameless ness ab ut this worship of fashions which are set by the demi-mondes of ' Paris, that will bring us to the very ‘ brink of that chasm which has led other great nations and empires to destruction " Preaching to a congregation that overflowed the ifiurch auditorium and filled the auditorium of the Sunday school. Dr. Johnson - pencil a week o' revive - services whieh he will ho d at ' t’ e First Presbyterian Church this week. His text Sunday morning was taken from the fifth chapter of the First Epistle of St. John and used as f his text, "Little Children Keep Your self From Idols.” Dr Johnson emphasized the divine inspiration back of the Bible and stated that it was the rule of faith in practice. Everything that is said ,in ti e Bible, he stated, is said with * I p arity and force. “The Bible is not a debate, nor a philosophy, nor a code of ethics, but is a source of ab-, so’ute knowledge,” said the preacher He did net believe in many of the new schools of thought arising in | the 'and some of which said tha a man need but be sincere in hi, brief whatever it might be to b saved. Dr. Jo’ ns n stated that some t s p evidences of ido atry was in tlr b ind wor-Ilin of socia' prestige, fash ion coveteousness and lle.slf. He de c ared that Christ was needed to have' the reins of government, to he domi nant in business and to reign supreme in the home. Only a Custom. Statesville Daily. It is the Elizabeth City Independ nt remarking: i "We c'iug to a let of our old time ■ Rube town habits. One is that of -oping off streets every time some one gets sick, interfering with all | traffic and inconveniencing pretty | much everybody when no particular good is accomplished thereby. A few wagon loads of saw mill shavings .spread on the street ill front of the ’ sick home deaden the noise of traf fic and the sick would fare just as well.” Trying to exclude street traffic on account of a ease of i’lness is only a habit, and the benefits to the sick are ' largely imaginary. It is like a lot of other customs, begun in years agone, it is kept up simply because it is cus tom, even when it is unnecessary. In. these days < f congested street traffic it is and believed to be I unnecessary as well In almost every , t nvn the hospita’s are on the main streets aud full of sick people, and they ask no protection from the street noises. Roping of streets was the custom in Statesville up to a few years ago wkeu it was wisely abandoned. Now if some prrtection is deemed a I ■ sign, preiatred for the puriiose, is , placed iu the street with the notice , that there is serious illness in the ’ block, and those who pass are expect ed to govern themselves accordingly. It is dmibrful if the sign makes any > impression on those who puss: and it is also doubtful if the sick know the • difference. The new regulation has I been accepted, to the great conven ience of the traffic. r VVhmt .Shakespeare Said.

SYNOPSIS By midnight Connemara Moore anas to announce her engagement to atm, of two tuitors or be disinherited by Aunt Celimena. Instead she is none speed ing through Greenwich, miles from home, at the side of young David La cy of New Yorh, whom she didn’t hnow but whom she hailed as he wa. passing auntie’s. And now a tragic cop has halted them and threatened to arrest them for speeding. And Connie garbed as a nun, is pleading for mer cy. At Aunt Celimena’s home, mHts bach in Connecticut, excitement runs high. CHAPTER lll—Continued In the reflected glow the face of the policeman altered,its expression 1 slowly. It ran from anger, through i surprise to bewilderment. Still Lacy could not see her face, yet from the effect upon the policeman he understood that it Was no ordi nary face. An ordinary face couldn’t ' possibly have had suefi an effect. | “It’s not a mask I’m wearing.” Again she was interrupted, this time I by a sneeze so violent and so realistic that Lacy was tempted to slap her regardless of her dignified robes, I well in the middle of th? back. “It’s lot a mask I'm wearing,” and again 1 sneeze. “It's a thing—a sort of .hing to keep out the dust. I suffer so from hay fever.” The cop yielded, but he was cyni cal. “Well, it sounds fishy to me. but I guess it's all right. But look ( out for Hogan at the PortchcsteT line. He won’t let you off so easy.” I Lacy started the motor, and when he turned again, the face of his -ompanion was once more hidden hy the mask. She was sneezing, delicately this time, with just the proper effect. The car moved off Mist Celimena was (taring at the J big grandfather clock. leaving behind it in the shadow the .1 policeman whose face made so good t and yet so tantalizing a mirror. “Where is this sick aunt?” 1 growled Lacy. There was a faint laugh. “Why, , she's the, one I'm running away from.” “We can’t go on like this,” he continued in the same gruff voice, “being stopped at every cross road. One of these cops will arrest me for abduction.” At that moment they passed the tower of Pickwick Inn, and Lacy, noticing the clock, I said, “It’s ten minutes to eleven. We can just make the last ferry. We'll turn off here and go over to Long Island. I’ve a house not far r (rom Glen Cove. You can change Into some other clothes.” Before his companion was able to protest, the big car swung around, the corner, turned into the main Street, and swept with a catlike, in sinuating purr beneath the railway iridge* In the little harbor the tide was low, and the muggy, miasmic smell of the bare mud hung over every thing. Somehow it was an smell, hinting of stranded ships, of of wild adventure . • . th# smell of salt marshes at Ibw tide, of ’otting ships. Through the gather ing mists the tall masts of the fish ing boats stood against the, dull gray blue of the sky like black’pen tils. The car drove down, down, down (long the cobblestone streets, until it length it turned into the ferry way. At the end stood the whiting boat, its gateway yawning black as ■ the mouth of a sea monster. When st last Lacy turned to regard his ' Companion, he found that she had pthered about her the blanket that ay in the back of the car.

She stiff wore the mask. Lacy regarded her and thought 1 to himself, “No, there has never heen. anything like this. And to happen in Connecticut of all places!” To the grizzled gatekeeper Lacy 1 muttered, “How long before you start ?” , “Five minutes,” the fellow replied. Somehow Lacy felt nearer sud- 4 denly to this strange woman beside him. Perhaps it was the sense of their being bound together by the same peril, the same adventure. From the depths of the ferry house he heard the grizzled gate keeper spit suddenly and exclaim, “It’s a great night for bootleggers. I reckon this fog’ll thicken up stead ily till morning.” And then the same voice lifted to shout to the pilot high up on the ferry deck, "Don’t be running any of ’em down tonight, Sam. Can’t afford to waste good liquor on fishes.” Sister Connemara laughed softly. "If you knew from what you had saved me ” It is impossible to know'svhat sort ' of picture Lacy had of the world from which she had escaped. It , must have been a strange one, and certainly it was different from the picture in the mind of his compan ion. She saw a ballroom filled with | 1 xcitcd people, two lovers hunting 1 desperately among the syringas and : perennial borders, and through it all I Aunt Celimena moving about, angry 1 and composed, in a black ball gown trimmed in 1880 jet. 5\ “I say,” said her companion pres- j ently in a puzzled voice, “haven’t we met somewhere—before you en tered a nunnery r” CHAPTER IV i In the two following that brief, altogether unsatisfactory talk with her niece, Miss Celimena was guilty of forgetting several times the rigid code of hospitality in which she had been trained and starifig opeftly and anxiously at the painted face of the big grandfather clock in the hall. If she could have done it without bemg seen, it not at all certain she would not also have gone so far as to push the hands forward, to les sen the sheer nervous torture of those dragging minutes uqtil mid night. This latest escapade ,)f Conne mara's was not only utter foolish ness, but it made the girl and Miss Celimena herself seem undignified. l , It was unthinkable that a Moore of Moorelands should resort to such cheap buffoonery for the announc ing of her engagement which ought, properly,- to be a serious, not to say ceremonious Occasion. Thus, over and over, back and forth in the same track, like frightened and feebly indignant mice, ran the thoughts oi Miss Celimena. And even oftener than she studied the clock, this much-harassed lady studied the faces of the two other people most concerned in Conne mara’s outrageous behavior. It was easy to see that Salton stall Adams had little liking for the sudden blaze of limelight in which he found himself. Salt, like Miss Celimena, had been 'brought up to see dignity weigh much more heav ily in the scales than romance. Or perhaps his definition of what con stituted romance differed from spoiled young Connemara’s. "At any any and everyone could see, he looked very stiff and disapprov ing indeed as he danced, correctly and dutifully, with one after an other of Connemara’s guests, gal lantly trying to live up to what was expected of him, but—as only the discerning noticed—with a faintly wistful bewilderment underlying the disapproval, as if his rather slow brain had not Entirely caught vp with the meaning of what was hap pening to him. Bingham Carrington, on the con trary, was carrying the awkward situation off with a high hand. In wardly he resented it, if possible, even more bitterly than his rival, for Bing was an emotional young ster and very genuinely in lo.ye. But he held his handsome blond head well back, with his chin lifted a half inch or so more than usual, and had a drawled come-back for every in nuendo of the over-curious.
