Short Sermons By J. B. Currin THE DECISION OI MOSES Moses faced what would be to many people'a very trying situation. We are familiar with the brief ac count of his early years. When the daughter Pharaoh found him among the flags she engaged his own mother though she perhaps knew it not?to care for him. Then, in later years, came the ray when his mother brought him to Pharaoh s daughter and he became her son. Egypt?in which country: he lived ?was an old and Important nation,, its civilization being one of the best j of the times. And we read, "Moses ( was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in words and in deeds." The same question presented it self to him that confronts others. That question is, "What am I to do with my training and abilities, or how am I to use my powers " Like many others he had to take the side of one interest or another. Shall he align himself with the peo ple of his parents and of his God, or with the family of the king? No doubt his mother had instilled Into him "a love for his own people. But; he had also, as stated above, been, trained in all the learning of the; Egyptians as the adopted son of ( Pharaoh's daughter. Shall he noW| remain in the palace of the king or j return to his own race, the Jews? j His loyalty to his own race, no doubti tinged the one; while his j pride and love far worldly display j and power, perhaps, dictated the other. We doubt many of his com-1 panions. had they known his prob lem would have considered it noth-, ing less than folly to think of leav ing the luxuries of the palace. But here I think the early training by his mother counted for much. He turned his back on the splen dor of the palace and went _ out to take the part of the people of God. The author of Hebrews says: "By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Paharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God. than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season, es teeming the reproaches of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt, for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward did you ever STOP TO THINK By Edson R.

LONG ROBERSON MAN'S DISCOVERY AIDS WEED GROWERS Refined white napthalene is one cf the most effective agen'3 known for the control of small worms in tobacco plant beds, according to tests made by Dr. B. B. Pulton, re search entomologist for the North Carolina experiment station. He said that thousands of tobacco growers in the eastern part of the State used napthalene last year with excellent results. Papthalene flakes may be used at the rate of'lH pounds to 100 square I yards of bed, with three applications during a period of 10 days. Heavier applications may be required when strong winds are blowing, since they are apt to blow the fumes away as' fast as they form. Fulton said that if no results are seen during several days of strong winds, growers should not be dis couraged, for the napthalene will take effect as soon as the winds subside. The small worms, midge larvae, apparently do not feed directly on the plants, but badly damage young ] plants by uprooting them in the' bed. Although they have not madel their appearance in large numbers! yet this season, Fulton said, a close ; check should be kept on the beds so ' that napthalene can be applied as soon as worms are found. Only refined white napthalene i should be used, as it is inexpensive and the crude brown napthalene, has not yet been tested to deter- j mine whether it injures the plants. This method of treatment was; firstt brought to public attention by O. O. Dukes. Robeson county scent, i who reported the good results ob- . tamed by Irs Kinlaw on bis plant beds last season. - - MAY CONTROL CUTWORMS WITH POISONED BAIT The use of a poisoned bran mix ture to kill cutworms and prevent their damaging early vegetable crops is being especially recommended at this time by C. H. Brannon, exten sion entomologist at N. C. State College. Barly in the spring, when the worms first get busy, the young plants are partciularly susceptible' to damage. Growers should watch their plants closely and ftpply the poisoned bait at the first sign of cut worms, he said. In experiments, best results have been obtained from a -mixture of one pound of Paris Green to 50 pounds of bran. Sodium fluoride will also give good results, but lead arsenate and calicum arsenate should be avoided. The poisoned bait should never be left where children or livestock can get at it, Brannon warned. About four pounds of bran-paris green bait should be applied to each 100 square yards of tobacco plant bed to control cutworms. The cloth should be removed and the bait soj spread that no lumps will come in; direct contact with the tender young, plants. For most other crops, the bait| STlOuld be broadcasted at the rate of! 15 to 20 pounds to the acre. The" bait should be applied a few days j before the plants come up, or on the; lay they come up. at the latest Applications are most effective in the evening so that the bait will 9c fresh when the worms get to work. New applications should be made after heavy rains. The bran and poison should be t well tnlx*d while dry. then moUtened with just enough water to dampen but not wet It. The mixed bait' should not form large lumps or be sticky and mushy. ? o READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS tThe colonial "New England Prim was in use for more than a cen ury as a text-book.

But, a still greater accomplishment, in our opinion, is the way that these cars have all been produced!
