SUNKEN PILLARS
I went to a function where a bril
liant young man received a dis
tinguished honor. Fine speeches
about him were mad,e and the may
or presented a gold medal.
Back near the door sat a demure
old couple who seemed ill at ease.
Their .faces were lined; their h^nds
showed the marks of hard labor.
They alow of all the guests did
not wear evening clothes.
But when the young man came
down from the platform he strode
quickly across the room and,
reaching the old couple, put his
arms around them.
The audienoe cheered.
I thought of Thomas Carlyle who,
when fame came to him, looked
back from the fashionable society
of London to the rugged farm
where he had grown up, and the
humble parents whose self-sacrifice
had made ^his tSareer possible. Said
he:
"I feel to my father, So great i
though neglected, so generous al-i
ways towards me, a strange tender
ness peculiar to the case, infinitely ,
soft and near my heart. Was he
not a sacrifice to me?"
And he added: "X can see his life
in some measure as the sunken
pillar on which mine was to be
built. Had I stood in his place, |
could he not have stood in ming
and more?"
I thought of the father of Robert
Bums and the "pains he took to
get proper schooling for his boys,
and when that was no longer pos
sible. the sense and resolution with I
which he set himself to supply the
deficiency by his own influence, rtr
many years he was their chief com- .
panion; he spoke to them seriously]
an all subjects as if they were
grown men: at night, when work
was over, he taught them arithme
tic; he borrowed books for them on
history, science, and theology . . .
He would go to his daughter as
she stayed afield herding cattle, to
teach her the names of the grasses
and wild flowers, or to sit by her
side when it thundered."
I thought of the father of John
Stuart Mill, neglecting his own in
terests in order to work patiently
at the education of his boy; of
Thomas Lincoln, struggling to keep
his poverty-stricken family togeth
er ? of all the uncounted hosts of
hidden fathers ... "sunken pillars"
. . who sufTefMl.^oblivlon cheer
fully In order that their sons might
rise.
It would be fairer if every life
could be measured by a double
standard ? first, by its own achieve
ment; second, by the careers of its
children. On this basis many ob
scure lives become glorious.
And many a medal, placed in the
strong, achieving hands of brilliant
youth, should be passed back to
the gnarled hands of the little old
couple sitting shyly by the door.
Meeting Of Review
.Club Held Thursday
A splendid meeting of the Review
Club was held Thursday afternoon,
with Mrs. A. J. McKelw&y. The
guests were met at the door by the
hostess and invited into the living
room where a profusion of bright ,
spring flowers were attractively ar- ,
ranged.
The subject for the afternoon was
"Tragedy," and Mrs. H. K. Sanders
read one of the most interesting
papers of the year, Shakespeare's
play, "Hamlet." This paper show
ed careful study and was thorough
ly enjoyed. Mrs. Lillian Foreman
led the discussion, comparing Ham
let with Ibsen's Ohost. The pro
gram was also featured by several
lovely musical numbers played by
Mrs. K. L. Street and sung by Mrs.
H. W. Newell and Mrs. A. J. Mc
Kelway.
The dining-room, to which the
guests were then invited, was beau
tifully decorated. A two-course
luncheon was served by Mrs. Mc
Kelway, assisted" by Mrs. J. H.
Hughes and Mrs. B. B. Newell. In
vited guests in addition to club
members included: MisSs Woodslde,
Mrs. Bourne, Mrs. West, and Mrs.
Stewart.

"Everything To Screen With"
Roxboro North Carolina
New Guernsey Blood
Brought To The State
Distribution of 39 pure bred
Guernsey heifers at the recent 4-H
lalf club sale held at' Quail Roost
Parm In Durham County brought
new blood lines to North Carolina
ind added good foundation stock
io a growing dairy industry.
This is the opinion of John A.
\rey, dairy extension specialist at
3tate College, who says the sale
ras one of the most successful yet
ield in the State. The 25 heifers
were selected in Wisconsin by T.
R. Farnham of the dairy extension
itaff. Hie animals were shipped
io Quail Roost Farm where they
vere sold at public autclon. Oeorge
Watts dill, owner of the farm, paid
ill expenses of the sale and pto- I
rated the profits to the successful
bidders. More than 1500 persons ;
attended the sale and bidding was J
iplrited. The calves averaged $184
sach with the high animal telling
'or *300.
In addition to this club sale, the
forth Carolina Guernsey Bleeders
Association held a ctnsignment sale
kf 15 selected mature cows and two
lulls,, with the average price
amounting to <354.
"Dairymen of North Carolina are
Indebted to Mr. Hill for his unself
ish action In bringing the 38
heifers to this State," says Mr. Arey.
"Not only did be guarantee all ex
penses In connection with buying
the calves and holding the sale but
be also turned back to the success
ful bidders their proportionate
share of the profits made. In this
manner, he made it possible for
prospective Guertisey breeders to .
get some good foundation stock of
the best blood in America at a
comparative low cost."
Mr. Aaey says that Mr. Hill has
offeted a sterling silver trophy cop
to the club boy or girl making
, the best record with their Guernsey
calf club work. The winning club
member will have his name en
graved on the cup each year.
