Information is that York. in com ! pally with two of his brofilers, wat | caught by Deputy Sheriff Pugh, of j Ramscur. at a still where they were engaged in making whiskey. It is ! stated that Y'ork drew a gun one the sheriff wifj iutenK to kill and suc | needed in making his escape, j Sheriff Cranford, of Asheboro, and Deputy Sheriff J’tigh arrived at the county jail Wednesday and returned with the prisoner. When Y'ork saw the Randolph county officers he realized the game he had played in the role of a luna tic was at an end. and he put up a stiff resistance, kicking, fighting and j biting the officers. His two broth 1 ers are still at largo and fhonght to ibe in this section. A Mistake. He came home one evening and found his wife sewing a tiny gar ment. "My dear! My dear!" he cried. “Don’t be silly," she replied. "This is my new dinner gown."

The money IS being spent for a modern sewer system which will cover ■ all sections of the city and which has been completed in the larger portion 1 of tbe city already. When the bonds were sold at. a* premium of $1,500 city officials start ed at once on the system confident I that no technicalities would interfere! with the completion of the sale. For! several months street forces had been) engaged in the sewer work but the sale of the bonds allowed tbe city to) put oiv this work on a larger scale. AH Os the mill communities will be served with a sewer line and ail houses will have to connect with the ine. More than 100 houses of the Locke Mill already have been equipped j with toilets, thus allowing au equal | number of surface closets to be closed ’ up. It is probable that several months will be required to complete all of the work contemplated. TON LITTER CONTEST FOR CAB ARBI’S FAIR Three Utters. Being Weighed Today. —Will Be New Feature of Fair.

[ Listing Taxes in Business-Like Man ner. j People are not no lax about listing | their taxes this year, a county official j stated this morning. “I have never I seen so much interest in the matter,” I this official said, "aud it looks now as though every one will get their l axes listed without inlying a penul- I ty.” j Under a recent ruling of county ! officials persons who fail to list their axes at the required time will be made to pay double raxes. This rul f ing, it is said, is responsible for the unusual interest shown in the mat ter. Heretofore gome of the county of ficials have been put to much trouble, and expense by person* wße neglected to make their returns at the proper time and the new ruling was made for the benefit of these officials.

We ore to see Him in every touch of His hand; through the tender light of grateful ness, and to answer the ordering of His wisdom with gn unfailing tribute of joy. His words ore: “Rejoice ev- I ermorc." “In everything give j And here, my young friends is the deep • philosophy of religion. It is contrary |to the wisdom of the world. R. remains the unquestioned fact, the : mere closely we walk with Christ tbtt fewer failures in fidelity to Him—r j the higher we attain in the overeotp , ing life, and the more constant will be ! our joy, and the more continuous the incense of our thanksgiviMg prayers. The question to which I called your attention in the outset, “What shall I ido Lord?" suggests that there is , something for us to do in these com ; ing years. The following statement ! may seem extravagant, but I nm per suaded that tlie skyline of our duty in these next few years will reveal! undulations and obligations not es sentially different from those revealed to Paul along the line of his own life's vision. To wliat was he called? To what are we summoned? Measuring his path of duty he said, “For me to live is Christ.” This is greater than preaching. Greater than organizing churches, greater than writing letters. The mightiest thing we "do iu life is to live Chrst. This is the need of the world and of the Kingdom today. It is the need, which I believe, is be ginning to be manifested by an anx ious restless multitude. They are seeking for something, prompted by ' l longings never yet satisfied. They | are not demanding njw humanitarian crusades. They are already bow lder- 1 ed by the multiplicity of local and worldwide movements. They are not asking for more sermons on the new- 1 day and the new age. They know its greatness. They are not in general deeply coueerned about denomina- ! t onal name and banner. The ehurch is not first in their quest. If I un- 1 dorstand aright the deep euuing of ' the demand from what we often eall the thoughtless, indifferent world, it ' is nothing less in the sight of God titan ; the cry of eternity-bound souls for • leaders w-ho know God, for teachers J who live Christ. The man or woman whose first aim is to be a reflector of Jesits Christ is coming very close to ! the Heavenly skyline for the urgent daily duties ‘of future years The Master himseif settles the pro fo’.indost problems of the Christian life when He sketches the outline in ( this one sentence "Ye are my wit- j nesses." In the court room of this l world we cannot be a failure if we j have a faithful testimony for Christ. , After the heart throb is still we live ' on aud on in the beauty of an after- | glow where God aud man seeru to dwell ( together. , This was an inspiration to Paul as , he moved on from continent to con- Cuent. No Board of Missions was be hind him. No great ehurch orgnniza- ( tion supported him, but at last this . flaming torch for a world illumined | the shores of Europe aud finally shone , in the gloom of an Italian prison. The line of guidance is still seen in the i heavens. Christ says, “I am the light of the world. "The field is the world," "Ye are the. light of the world." The touch of my hand has opened the path for m.v messengers to the end of the earth. I have placed the treasures of creation in the lap of Christian lands. I am drawing the nations into a Christian brotherhood. I have no outline campaign different from the one I issues! on the mountainside of Galilee. If in person or influence you will start on this highway of the king with the treasure of my gospel. I give the pledge of My promise, that I will go with you personally, all the days. How many heart blessings we might have.' and how many precious soul exi>eri ences we would enjoy, did we only follow the path along whieh Jesus promises to go. The blessedness of Tlis companionship is conditioned up on our giving the herald-news to the world. Had Paul when he received his world eomnrssion, “For hence to the Gentiles," timidly declined the post and settled down to mueh-needed home work in Tarsus, do you think that his heurt life would have been »o wonderfully enriched? Had a conoeited vision caused him to forget the Heavenly vision, do you question that, as in the mobs of Jerusalem, the storm of the Mediterranean, and the riot of Corinth, he wonld hHVe found by his side a loving Heavenly Savior comforting his troubled spirit? Among the many calls that caine to this great Apostle was one to the good Samaritan rescue work. We have before us the greatest of human preachers. He opened to a dying world the treasure of the Kingdom of Heaveu. How profoundly he unfolds the riches of Calvary; the glories of the resur tection and the precious indwelling of (he Holy Presence? And what is this strange line the great herald is. following. He is gathering the mites in Asia and Europe. Out of depths of the poverty of his mission stations, he is collecting a little Mission mon ey for the famishing brothers and sis teew in Jerusalem. He believes that we are to love a brother whom, as in the case of God. we have not seen. He is trying through the love of redeemed lives to focus tbe love of heaven Upon a strviug boy or girl in the land of his fathers. As we ride throughout oar country today we find that our cities are grand, tbe vilia|e« ate hap are witbaut number. The n»il!« *ud factories la city aud bauik* w* along their abounding waterways, are better ha*y done it unto one of the least of lhagt iny brethren; ye have done It * nqto toe." May all Christendom coma #*o a clearer realtaatiofi of tfe thoughts of Christ as they speak to vjk a these words. The ami raiment sent to live the thirty mfl- Eaa of Cb : na and the Nenr East are given to Him. ... This Jesus who took the little ones li U| H arms and blessed them, has a benediction for those who have helped to.keep alive the three and a half mmofi of helpless, innocent, starving of Central Europe. None can (dock them out of My Father’s hand, offimred Armenia, that pilgrim of fkijh, as she has moved down the path jtkfr'uf history, and has tailed among nwtt and robbers of the nations. The ■and Samaritan "who does not forget buffering has a personal word from’ Sffiffit which makes the future glow. SI as not unrighteous to forget jMr Vork and labor of love which yUSchave showed toward His name in tbtt ye have ministered to the saints WM do minister.” My young friends ; I-do not‘consider it too early in your livte to call to your attention that yoir service which you will be expect- j ed to render wiH be worldwide. As you go further into the activi- i tie* of life you will discover more and 1 more that there is a need for the Power of a comrade's touch all along tlie way. Paul’s ex)>erience might be thus stated. I have personally ( touched a l.fe here and there. I won j Timothy away at Lystrn. where there wfis no church. I gained Lydia and was not a stranger in her home. I i drew the jailer to Christ with ! n the i walls of a prison. I have summed up I my work of three years in this word:, “I-Ceased not to warn everyone night; aud day with tears and have taught j you from house to house.” It was not j otherwise with Jesus himself. He talks with a sinful woman by the ! well; with a rich young ruler; with a blind man; with u leper: with Zac cheus. The greatest evangelistic meet ing ever seen was held on the banks of the Jordan when a few men talked together about one Jesus. The hour in which we live culls for evangelistic! conversation, or conversational evau- ( gelism, more emphatically than it de mands the great concourse of evan gelistic gatherings. A certain truth, lies in the oft-quoted sentence, “Wei are horn one by one; we die one by: one; we are lost one by one; we nfe t saved one by oneA’ God's plan of reaching men is through men. As young people, let me impress u|>on . your minds that the frentest field for real service aud profit is in touching the lives of others. And finally my friends, as God's servant, I cannot allow this opportun, tty to pass without calling your at tention to the great lack and need of prnyer-life among the youth of tt>- ;day. There seems to be the idfn •dwelling iu the miud of the youth of the land that the prayer life is to be lived only by -the older ones. Begin your lives anew today by lifting your faces toward God. And do it bravely. The' first breath of Paul's awakening was a prayer. YVligu he was blind he dip nothing but pray. The first thiug be did in the new world of the west wus to go to a pjrkyer meeting. Wien his feet were in the stocks he prayed. Whtn his teuderest farewell words were s|>okeii. he kneeled upou the shore and prayer. When he was in prison awaiting the lictor's sword, his greatest recorded prayers were uttered. The prayer life is the ouly life that follows God's skyline. Is this a reality? Is it only a vision? My young friends in your joyous hours today I want first to say that it is the wish of everyone in this pres ence that it may ever bo ns it is now. And second, I say that there will come many sorrows, and trials in your lives, but I want to tell you that there is one promise that will be like an open window to your soul. And at this Window may sit in peace through the years. It will be to, you as beau tiful as the rainbow of the covenant, and may it be as real to.you as the rainbow Ls beautiful. Here it is. "In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God. which passeth ail un derstanding. shall guard your hearts aud your thoughts in Christ Jesus." You are now at another turnstile of time. The year of your school course thus far is tinged with the hops and brightness of new cudeav ors. Just here let the vision of our faith be steady. The value of a hu man life is found in its relations to Jesus Ihrist. In the things wherein He appears to us,' in tbe past, in the future, are found tlie deep lessons of life tad the precious treasures of the soul. Locusts as Food. Speaking of Jtffin the Baptist the Bible says that his meat was locusts and Wid honey. Many early Biblical commentators thought the locusts re ferred,, lo were a kind of fruit, but the fact is that even at the present time- the insects Cstled locusts ire widely used for foot! in the Orient, ftiere is no resson why eueli may not have comimsrd the food of John the Baptist.
