MOTHER'S DAY. : I r - Toatorow will be observed throughout America aa Mother 'a day." Concerning the day and the observance thereof the following beautiful aentiment ia from the Bulletin , of the Main Street Methodist church for. tomorrow: , ' 'Today is Mother 'a day. This u an annual event; established a few yeara ago, which has grown in popularity i to such an extent that it is observed with increasing interest throughout the ooun try. On this dav every person whose mother is living ia supposed to wear red rose: if the mother is dead, a white rose. It is appropriate that one Sunday In the year should be devoted to pay in tribute to mother. It is the sweet est dearest word in the English langu age. No matter where one goes, no mat ter how farSone strays from the paths of rectitude and righteousness, the name of mother always inspires thoughts of reverence and goodness in the basest heart. Many a boy and man sometimes a daughter neglects mother while aho Uvea but reveres her memory when she ia gone. Many a boy or man would give all he has if he could recall mother from the grave and have her live again that he might show her a changed life and prove to her that he loved her, some thing he signally failed to do while she was living. 'Mother, Home and Heav en ' are 'three words so often linked to gether worda that cause us to meditate upon au inax is nig a ana noiy ana worm while in life. If mother is living to day, Vjon't you think it would be a fine thine to whisper a word or love to ner and let her know or rather try to what her life has meant to yout" :.f V- THE Y. M. C. A.

After food, raiment, and shelter, every true American parent desires for his ehild the advantage of an education that will equip him for life's struggles and opportunities. For decades, our democra cy haayttruggled for equal educational opportunities for all the children of all the people. The qualiy of education as f other commodities may be fairly well judged by its cost The pereapita cost per child for education in North Caro Una for the three years covered by the last two reports of the state superinten dent are in rural and crty schools as fol lows: Rural City 1915- 16 $4.00 $ 9.42 1916- 17 4.21 9.52 ' J 917-18 4.48 10.63 ;Are the rural districts Maying too little or the city districts layin too muchf It may help you to answer when you know the average per capita cost pej. ehild in the United Statenas a whole in 1914 was 39.06. Are parent of mod erate means who are. vitally interested in the education of children likely to move to the city or remain in the coun try? What kind of citizens are such parents f When they1 move out of a community on aeocunt of cheap schoola and hence poor schools, what kind of people, will take their placet . As long as rural schoola are paying for the edu cation of their children only one-seventh of the average pad in the United States, the educational opportunities of the coun try boys and girls are pot equal to tose" of the country. As long as the cities af North Carolina pay only one-fourth of the average per capita cost of educa tion ia the United 8tates, the most valu able resource of North Carolina ia not being conserved. county that would have gone to Judgi Council had Lineolntea not pressed its candidate.

What 'does Lincoln eounty wont to do' in 'these circumstances j" From this distance, the above from The Hickory Daily Record 'would ap pear to have all the earmarks of frame-up against some candidate.

A Des Moines dispatch says that house- hunters of ingenuity have devised sever al interesting and successful methods of discovering houses and partments for rent. One recently auccessful advertisement appeared under a large heading of one word:. "Help." It stated that "a sweet, year-old baby needs a home," and added, "of course her parents must go. with her." Another househunted who saw this advertisement told the baby's father about a eottage he had just in spected which was too small for himself. The father arrived there first and rented the place. Most of the tk'bme are directed to ward getting to the vacant place ahead of anyone else. Moving van driver are stopped frequently to discover where their loads of furniture came from. Even divorce notices and death notices have been successfully followed up by a few househunters. LINCOLN AND CATAWBA. ui course uaiawoa county has no legal claim . on .the support of Lin coln county for its candidate for con gress and Liaeolnton can put out aa many candidates for congress as it desires, but were is bo Harm ia calling attention to. the fact that Catawba county peo ple, especially the lawyers, are vitally in terested in seeing that Associate Justice Hoke is returned to the supreme court bench. The Record has endeavored to help along this line, but it would do that in any event, for this paper does not know of aa abler judge than Lin- eolatoa 1 man,. Major Graham also drew good support ia Hickory four years With so many candidates in the field for congress, they, can, only kill each other. off. - Mr.i Quiekel ia a splendid man, .the Record, ia aware, but he came ia late be- ,eaa get votes ia Liacola THE EDITOR., St. Augustine, (Fla.-) Record. , Considered by far and large, the newspaper editor is at once a benefactor and a bloomin' nuisance. A benefactor in that he freely (though perhaps reluc tantly and against bis private concep tions of what constitutes charitable ,aa sistance) inserts notices of. benefit, bazaars, private dancing ' lessons, colt shows, movie features, stock sales and separate maintenance absolutely free of charge, gratuitously, without remunera tion. A nuisance because eternally and everlastingly he intrudes the point of his professional proboscis in other people's private affairs and makes 1hem matters of pulilir, importance. One of the fundamental prerequisites of the editor 'a job is 'that he be exhaust' ively familiar with every avenue aad rural by-path of human learning. This posi tion he must maintain despite his family connections and grammatical wayward ness. Yet if the poor dub fails, through the physical impossibility of discover ing the well-concealed secret, to electrify the earth with the thrilling information that Adam Mincehouser shelled corn last Saturday, he is heralded near and afar as au ignorant boob who ought to be clean ing streets or practising law. Nine of every twelve who visit an edi tor's sanctum admit some timidly, others defiantly that at some misguided moment of their irresponsible careers they "published a paper." And they al ways hasten to explain that of course they weren't at it very long, you know They want it clear that their offense was comparatively small like pleading to manslaughter rather than murder. An editor's divine duty is the writing of editorials. An editor without edi torinls is like a toad without warts. It may be that editorials wou 't grow in some editors. In some they thrive like tape worms, but they're measured bv-the column rule. An editor isn 't always as ruthless and rab;d as one might judge from the shape of his bead. Don t for a minute think he goes his limit in purging the com munity of crime and its eitizens of sin. way, say, if be 'd publish just a sugges tion of some of the -stuff he has on you your safest retreat would be "some where ia Mexico. " But he doesn't, and he won't. When you get to warping it to him so hard that he decides to show you up, his wife locks him in the secrecy of her chamber and once more pleads with him to spike his spleen and pocket his pen, reminding him that your wife ia suffering enough as it ia. And so once more be refrains. , . EFFORTS MADE TO CHANGE EPISCOPAL RESIDENCE. DES MOINES, IOWA; May 8. In a number of the areas of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the United States efforts are being made to change the location of the episcopal residence. which ia the home of the resident bishop and the head of the area, it became knows at the general conference today. This matter is "being considered by the committee on episcopacy in executive ses sion and it is not known a yet whether changes will be recommended by the committee.
