it all, but its colunir cked with such interest concerning Raleigh
and the paper's history it V? hard to lay it aside for anything else. One of
j the most interesting papers in the entire edition was the story by Editor
Daniels of his own career in journalism. It was indeed thrilling to read
of the many sacrifices which he has made and the many privations he has
endured because of his loyalty to the great work to which he felt a call
f i om his childhood. But in this his lot has been the Cuinmon lot with most
men who follow journalism purely for the love of the work. The occasion
of the elaborate edition of the News and Observer was the "house warm-
I ing" in its own new quarters. A beautiful and modern building has just
! been completed for the paper, and the occasion of welcoming its friends
j to its new place for the first time wa3 quite a pleasant one. The equip
j ment of the paper is not excelled by any paper in the South in a town the
size of Raleigh, and Editor Daniels is to be congratulated on his achieve
: ment in preparing himself and his paper to render even better service to
the State than ever before. His has
ands of friends rejoice in it and wish for him greater achievements than
have ever.crowned his efforts in the past. A good and honest and ably
edited newspaper makes history for the people amongst whom it is pub-
lished, and the hundreds of strong endorsements by its friends speak
volumes in declaring that the News and Observer is doing its full share in
the great work that lifts up individuals, battles for the State's best and

great deal is said in prohibition territory about the violation of the
law, and whiskey advocates often claim that there is as much whiskey sold
under prohibition as under the system of open

1 bars. We have never believed this, and we
: never shall until more convincing argument is produced. But there can
: bo no doubt that in many prohibition districts the prohibitionists are too
! careless about seeing that the law is observed. Too many prohibitionists
seem tohink that to secure a prohibition law is all that is needed. This
is a mistake. There should be constant
who desire to suppress the sale of liquor, lest s6me one violate the law and
hus give whiskey advocates and those
! chance to join in with the oft-repeated assertion that "prohibition does
! not prohibit." The Rich Square Times tells in the folloAving how the
i temperance people of Northampton are guarding the temperance interests,
I and other counties and communities could well take the lesson. It says:
"With the closing of the Dispensary at Jackson the temperance people of
! the town have awakened to a new activity, and they are ready to meet the
foe in the 'blind tiger' guise. In the organization of the Anti-Saloon
League here, Atty. B. S. Gay was chosen its president, Mr. J. T. Flythe,
vice-president, and Atty. S. J. Calvert secretary and treasurer. These
three officers, together with Supt. P. J. Long and Atty. G. E. Midyette,
constitute the executive corrimittc. A vigilance committee was appointed,

any attempt to bring in whiskey will be detected, and any one caught in
the act will be prosecuted trf the full extent of the law." If other
communities and counties in which the sale of whiskey is prohibited by
law would organize as the Northampton people have done and would see
to it that such organization means something, there would not be such
sneering at prohibition as one often hears. Prohibition will prohibit if the
principles by which p-ople a,k for it are carried out in maintaining it.

Hobbies and Happiness.
(American Farmer.)
If you wfnfe t.p bp huppy, jjet a
nobby. It makes little ditterence
what it is, poultry fancying, fine
cattle of any breed, horses of any
style, a particular kind of flower, or
even pat-raisinpr. .so onjy that you
love your occupation and find pleas
ure in its pursuit. The one-idea
man, the specialist, is he who obtains
from life the most enjoyment.
Audubon followinar. th wild turkey
in Kentucky, sleeping in the woods
so as to observe the habits of the
"birds, watching their nest-building
from day to day, was a happier man
than Rockefeller with his millions.
John Purfdujfhs. in h!a eabin on the
Hudson, listening to the woodpeck
er's tap and the squirrel's bark, finds
an enjoyment more exquisite than
falls to the lot of any king. Bur
bank, with his floral experimenta
tions, his giidle'ss efforts td pi'dddce
or train new fruits and vegetables,
is always busy in a pleasurable occu
pation, and that is the nearest ap
proach to happiness that is to be
found on eprth?
The happiest farmers are those
who devote themselves to special
ties. Perhaps it is a herd of Here
fords, perhaps a particular breed of
sheep, or goats, or ponies, or mules.
If his heart is set on his work, if he
takes delight in production and
watches the development of his anl-
mals as the result selection afld
breeding, he will find a joy not to be
measured in money. It is the same
with the gardener in search of a new
or improved vegetable. The old
alchemists, who spent their lives in
a vain search for the "philosopher's
stone," though what we call cranks,
were not unhappy men. They at
least had a hobby, and this they
rode at all seasonsi blissfully un
conscious of the worries of the world.
The great inventions and discoveries
have all come from hobby-riders.
Only they have the concentration of
mind, the intense self -conviction, the
enthusiasm that produces big results.
And they get intense enjoyment
from their work, the enjoyment of
pursuit, the enjoyment of anticipa
tion as well as the enjoyment that
comes from self-centered occupa
tion. Women, especially unmarried
women, snouid toy au means nave a
hobby. If it is a love of flowers.how
delightful the results. Better of
course if the hobby leads to profit
as well as pleasure, but profit or no
profit, have a hobby. Miss Helen
Gould's hobby is the establishment
of institutions for orphans, and
while this gives her unalloyed pleas
ure, it confers happiness upon thous
ands of others and these of the most
helpless class. The old maid who
cultivates cats forgets the disap
pointments of youth, the proposals
she missed, and forgets to dwell on
her sorrows and disappointments be
cause too busy looking after her
tabbies and tommies. Hobby-riding
is especially valuable on the farm
because there it is apt to do good
not only to the hobbyist, but to the
country at large. We are inclined
to believe that no great su ccesss will
come of poultry raising or any branch
of the live stock industry unless the
one in charge makes a veritable
hobby of it. One must be enamored
of his pursuit, must find genuine
pleasure in his occupation or he will
not succeed and certainly will obtain
from it no happiness.
Noah's Remarkable Wife.
(Human Life.)
A clergyman happend to tell his
son one Saturday afternoon what
lesson he would read in church the
next morning. The boy got hold of
his father's Bible, found the lesson
place and glued together the con
necting pages.
In consequence the clergyman read
his flock the following day that
"when Noah was 120 years bid he
took unto himself a wife, who was"
here he turned the page "150
cubits long, 40 cubits wide, built of
gopher wood, and covered with pitch
in and out."
After reading the passage, the
clergyman read it again to verify it.
Then, pushing back his spectacles,
he looked gravely at his congrega
tion and said:
"My friends, this is the first time
I ever read that in the Bible, but I
I accept it as evidence of the assertion
that wc are fearfully and wonder
fully made."

A Nine-Day-Old Baby Talks.
(Roanoke, Va., Special to Charlotte Observer.)
The Fox postoffice neighborhood
of Grayson county, this State, is in
a state of excitement and perplexity
as a result of the prodigious per
formances of a 9-day-old child, the
baby of Mf: and Mrs. Leftwich
Brewer, well known ileo'ple' of that
section. W. E. Daniel, a travelling
man of Chilhowie, Va., who has just
returned from the place, brings news
of the consternation caused by the
baby talking perfectly, and Dr. G.B.
Halsey, a reputable physician of
Brible Creek, near Fox postoffice
has corroborated the story. Dr. Hal
sey furnished the following data,
which is unimpeachable;
Mrs. Belle Brewer, wife of Left
wich Brewer, a thrifty farmer living
near the North Carolina line, and
whose postoffice address is Fox, Va.,
two weeks ago gave birth to a norm
ally developed boy baby. The little
fellow thrived like any healthy nw
comer and Its mother progressed to
the road of recovery Without any
backset.
When the child was nine days old
Thomas Brewer, a brother of Left
wich Brewer, together with his wife
and other relatives and neighbors,
went to visit th home in which the
stork had so recently paid a call.
While Mrs. Thomas Brewer was hold
ing the baby in her arms calling it
endearing names and congratulating
its proud parents on the splendid
specimen, the little one suddenly be
gan talking. It called the names of
its parents and grandparents and of
other relatives present, following
each nams with the Word "heaven,"
the articulation being perfect.
This monstrous behavior on the
part of the nine-day babe so excited
and scared the party that a number
of persons fled from the house in dis
may, believing something terrible
was about to take place.
Every word spoken by the child
was repeated three times and this
only served to intensify the spell cast
over those who heard the voice.
News of the marvelous actions of the
latest arrival in the Brewer home
spread like wildfire and threw the
section into a state of perturbation.
The child died yesterday and the
excitement has somewhat subsided,
but the people are yet in a maze of
wonderment,, having never before
seen or heard of anything like what
has happenedv in their midst, and
many are said to be living in fear and
trembling lest the child's death will
be followed by some terrible catas
trophe. '
Good Location For a Doctor.
The young physicians were ex
changing news for the first time
since their graduation from the
medical school.
"I was surprised when I heard
you'd settled at Beech Hill, "said one
to the other, laughing. "I've always
heard it spoken of as such a healthy
suburb. I wondered if you'd find
any patients there."
"My dear man." said his classmate.
earnestly, "It is a healthy suburb.but
it is also the stronghold of football;
every family has an automobile, and
there never was such a place before
for giving children's parties. I'm do
ing splendidly, thank you-. "-Youth's

For the Joy of the Doing.
(Voun.i People's WeeklV.'
The sight of an alert, vigorous
young man or woman standing on
ff?3 brink, as it were, o! life's big
experiences, always brings to my
mind the words, "RejtiCe1-h as a
strong man to run a race." There iti
something magnificent in the fresh
fhtfsiasms, the tense moral muscles
the const ?jtfress of power to wresl e
and overcome. j
But swift upon the first thought j
comes another.
How many will lun .
the race, and how j
jfnr the joy of
many flWffAv for the plaudit?, the
fame, and mateTfcl pain success may
bring?
I knew a young draughtsman who.
when he was engaged on a drawing,
forgo everything in the pleasure of
his work. To' Mm It was an unfailing
source of amazomeni h&W wme (f
his associates in the large construfi'
tion company where he was employ
ed pould let a plan pass from their
hands in a SrHUoVy, slovenly condi
tion. It seemed to hini tht, by so
doing, they missed all that midp
the thing worth while.
Evn the most commonplace work
gain. interest vfhen performed in
this way, and it is the one Sure key
which will unlock the door to steady
advancement. Employers are con
stantly on the lookout for young
people who work for the joy of the
doinj. They know its worth, and
that nothinpr can hold such a man or
woman back. Ndte as you go into
a dry goods store, the girl Who waits
on ypu as though she had some in
terest in firiflinf what you needed.
It will not be many ytj3r before she
is at the head of her department. In
a millinery shop in one of our big
cities recently I was surprised to
hear a yoUng woman say politely,
but firmly, to an elderly lady who
was gazing anxiously at her reflection
in , . mh1 .u. u :
iil tile fclaas: "Madam, that hat is
entirely unsuitable for you. If you
will allow me, I will find 0mthing
far more becoming." I immediate--ly
made a mental note of that gill
to be stored up for future use. She
was too much in earnest in her vo
cation to allow her customer to
make such a blunder aa the purchase
of that particular piece of headgear
ceftalnly would have been.
There is an iuiT!e?vs satisfaction
in feeling, "My best has gun into
the work." At the close of the day
to be able to look back, and say: "I
strove because there was joy in the
striving," is to start one step higher
when next the sun rises. Employ-
ment wnicn is gouen mrougn some-,

hours until labor ceases,
is a veri
must be
table treadmill. .There
some joy in the doing if life for tire ,
masses Is to be anything but a grind
ing routine.
We all recall, in "Nicholas Nickle
by," old Tom Linkinwater's pride in
the account books of the Cheeryble
Brothers, which he had kept SO im
maculately for so many years, and
his joy when he found that the work
of young Nicholas came up to his
standard, and that he was capable of
becoming hi3 successor.
Unless we find some satisfaction
and recompense in performing the
task of today, we shall assuredly not
find it m tomorrow's larger
tunity, and the more congenial em-
ployment which the future may
bring will not yield the gratification
we expected from it. The germ of
joy in the doing must be planted
, ? ,
now, whatever the work, if we are
ever to know that tnrui, tnat joy
which obliterates for the time being
every disappointment and defeat life
can hold, which comes from the sue-
cessful accomplishment of some diff.-:
cult undertaking.

"Then what can you do?" asked

Less Than One Minute In Jail.
A few days ago, in New York City,
Max Kotbutein served what ia prol
ably the shortest prison scntf n?e on
record. In fact, according to The
Times, he actually served no time at
all, tho he completed his sentence.
He was arrested charged with pod
ling umbrellas without a license, and
was brought before the court im
mediately. We read:
Max's record was possible because
of the law which makes four o'clock:
the end of a legal day in jail. Max
Wa arrested at '.I JA o'clock, ami in
the Essex Market Court Magistrate
Barlow ruled $1, or a day in jail.
1 Max looked at the clock. It was then.
just 3:58 o'clock. If he could yt
