Surelv not and yet we are so forgetful of the very blessings of life that, the organization that nursed your boy baek to health last year, or soothed the parting moments of a dear one, is well nigh forgotten al ready. This does not mean the people are wicked or coldhearted, but it does mean that they are wrapped up in other things and give no thought to the best there is in life. Pleasure has too strong a hold on the American life for really se rious consideration of the worth while affairs that are going on around us. Be this as it may our people those in Scotland Neck and vicin ity are not going to let it be known that they have turned a deaf ear to the Red X"ross drive for members-hip.

A Detroit mother, in a moment of insanity or otherwise, ad minis- little daughters with the intention of ending their existence. They were saved, however, by the prompt action and heroic ef forts of a physician and are now calling for the mother who is be hind iron bars. j Th lesson is one which should be taken into every home. There is entirely too much free dom in the manner in which peo ple are permitted to purchase drugs of a poisonous nature. In a majority of homes you can find these poisons standing on patry shelves, in bath rooms, or in other places. Invariably they are within the reach of children who know not that death lurks in those inno cent looking bottles. It is the acme of careless ness, and comes dangerouslv near to criminality. Death dealing drugs should not le purchased at will.
