THE FLAG
Here comes “the flag.
Hail it!
Who dares to drag
Or trail it?
Give it hurrahs—
Three for the stars,
Three for the bars.
Uncover your head to it
And the soldiers who tread to it
Shout at the sight of it—
The justice and right of it,
The unsullied white of it,
The blue ami the red of it,
And tyranny’s dread of it!
Here comes the flag!
Cheer it!
Valley and crag
Shall hear it,
Fathers shall bless it,
Children caress it,
All shall maintain it,
No one shall stain it.
Cheers for the sailors that fought
on the wave for it!
Cheers for the soldiers that al
ways were brave for it!
Tears for marines who went down
in the grave for it!
Prayers for all men and the lives
that they gave for it!
Here comes the flag!

Jail Population
Again Increases
Officers Active Saturday
Night In Rounding I p Of
fenders of the Law; Stil
ls Captured
At the close of the June term
of Superior court, a truck load
of “campers” were taken from the
Johnston county jail to the county
convict camps and to the State
prison, and the jail population
was somewhat depleted. County
officers, however, added live to the
jail inha'bitanits Saturday night I
though some of them are now out
on bond.
Deputies Claude Carroll, Wad
Duipree, L. 1). Parker, and K. A.
Johnson, early Sunday morning
all)out two o’clock captured a forty
gallon capacity copper still in
Pleasant Grove township, arrested
two men and have a warrent for
u third who made his escape. The
still was running full blast. Bill
Wiggs, Jr., and Jack Beasley are
the two men caught. Bill Wiggs,
Sin, was recognized by the officers
hut he made his escape. The lat
ter was given a five year sus
pended sentence in the state prison
by Judge Midyette in the recent
term of Superior court, which will
become effective if the officers
succeed in apprehending him and
convicting him in this case. Seven
gallons of whiskey and two bar
rels of beer were destroyed at
the still.
Saturday night about 10:30
o’clock Deputies J. O. Hinton aru
W. H. Coley arrested Kd Byrd
and John Gaston Crocker, charg
ing them with drunkenness, reck
less driving and transporting. The
arrest was made in the colion mi’!
village. A brand new DeSoto road
ster was confiscated by the oifi
eers. About a pint of whiskey and
a quart blackberry wine wer«
found in the car. Last Tuesday
the Judge of the Recorder’s com:

Senator Simmons
Raps Tariff Bill
Party Headquarters (Jives
Out Statement; Part y
Wounds Seem To He
Healing
The United Press correspondent
it Washington, D. C., says that
an example of the effectiveness of
focusing attention on a cummor
issue as a means of submerging
party difference was given ia
Washington Sunday when Demo
cratic headquarters issued a state
ment by Senator Simmons. Sena
tor Simmons rapped the tariff
measure which passed the House
icfore Congress • took a recess,
dating that it is "the most signal
victory ever won by the seekers
.ifter privilege and government
Hefore the recent election, while
Simmons did not openly bolt, ho
lid nothing for the Democrats •
luring the campaign, and his !
state was carried by Hoover. There
has been conjecture as to the |
stand that Mr. Simmons wou’d
take in regard to the anti-Smi;’»
forces of Virginia which are still
fighting domination of the party
oy Rasko'b. The Greensboro Daily
News news bureau at Washington ■
“Now Senator Simmons is i on mi j
in the company of that group of !
Democratic* senators who have j
been furnishing the publicity bu
reau of the national committee ;
A'ith their views on the faults arul
failings of the pending tariff b.’\
as produced by the ways an i ,
means committee of the house.
While these statements were be- ;
ing ground out by the national j
committee publicity people, work i
ing under the direction of Charles
Mkihaelson, until recently of the
New York World bureau, there
was some speculation whether j
the committee would solicit an |
expression of the views of Sena
tor Simmons, and whether, if the
committee did so, the North
Carolina senator would respond,
and to this extent participate in
the work of tlhe national commit
tee. That the senator did re
spond agreeably, may be taker,
as another indication of the ef
forts being made to make tile
party in the state healthy and
whole again.
“So while the statement of Sen
ator Simmons respecting the tar
iff dhallenges interest, as was al
ways the case in the past, the
background for such statement is
of no less interest.
That the seekes after special
privilege have won a victory and
that the ‘Democrats in the sen
ate will fight to the bitter end
those revolutionary provisions
in the 'bill which would take away
from Congress the power to de
termine what taxes should be im
posed upon the people through
customs duties’ are broadsides
leveled at the vitals of the Haw
ley bill, by Senator Simmons. He
declares that ‘as little as the far
mer will get out of the farm re
lief measure, he will get still
less from the tariff bill, unless
the senate rewrites the bill which
passed the house.’ ”,

This nation, with its annual in

MILLIONS of dollars, treats the
value of education generously.
Hut the value of education de
pends not on money, but on the
brains on which the education
money is spent. A crop depends
not entirely on the seed, but
more on the soil.
Nearly nine hundred years ago,
when Abelard, taught logic • nd
theology to young men in the
University of Paris, they gather
ed in \\ intertime in a stone-lined
room, not heated, taking notes
by candlelight.
And many, too poor to pay for
candles, climbed the church stee
ple on bright moonlight nights, to
continue their studies there by
moonlight.
A few such students might be i
worth more to the world than a ;
thousand million dollars of endow
ment. Edison gave to the world
more money than wealth has eve"

In rural England, a huge lion.
Knocked out of his cage in an au
Lomdbile collision, jumped into a
cow pasture. A cow with a young
calf dashed at him, and gored
him, attacking him again and
again, until he killed her. Other*,
later, killed him.
The cow, not the lion, is the
interesting animal, in that story,
for she represents mother lov*,
with its boundless courage. How
many men would have attack*1!
the lion with no better weapon
than a cow’s horns.
Consider also the marvelous in
heritance of memory. The cow’s
ancestors, proibaibly, had not seen
a dangerous wild beast, in more
than 1,000 years. But, at sight,
the cow knew that the lion meant
danger to her calf, and rushed
to the attack. Man is not the
only .animal “fearfully and won
derfully made.”

Kiwanis Delegate
Finds Prohibition
Kev. C hester Alexander Says
Milwaukee Is No Longer
Famous; His Experience
j Kev. Chester Alexander recent
I ly attended the Kiwanis Interna
. tional Convention which met in
[Milwaukee, WLs. The editor was
i “one of the thousand" who had
some curiosity as to prohibition
in that city, and asked Mr. Alex
under to tell us his impressi-om
received during: the convention. H s
answer interested us to such ar
extent that we are passing his
comment on to our readers. Mi.
Alexander said:
“I presume that all those who
read the advertisements fifteen
years ago know what “Made Mil
waukee Famous," and 1 am sure
that those who did more than
read the advertisements know
what it was that put this city on
the map. For tho benefit of the
unenlgihtened I will say that it
was Schlitz beer, and if my
memory serves me right, I be
lieve that the advertisements re id
—‘Schlitz, The Beer that Mad'
Milwaukee Famous.’
“I have just returned from Mil
waukee and I beg to state that
Milwaukee is no longer famous
About one hundred have asked nr*
about the beer situation out
Milwaukee and 1 presume a thous
and more intend to ask me when
they see me, because both thos.i
who like beer want to know and
those who don’t like it want t<<
know, and I impute no lower mo
tive to those who have asked nu
than the altogether legitimate mo
tive of curiosity; so for the bene
fit of the thousand who intehd to
ask me about the alcoholic hu
midity of Milwaukee, I am glati
to report that Milwaukee is no
longer famous.
“On the way out to the beer
city of America, a man on the
observation car said to several of
us: ‘I wish I were going to Mil
waukee with you; man alive that
town is wide open. They have
chased the prohibition officers out
of the state and the breweries art
running full blast.’ The man who
spoke waxed eloquent. His eyes
glowed. His face beamed. He was
as one describing the virtues of
his beloved to a party of friends;
he gave us the information with
great joy—'like one who reveal*
to a party of thirsty pilgrims
in the desert the way to an oasis.
Those who liked beer smiled from
ear to ear, and those who didn’t
wondered how the anticipation of
a few drinks of Schlitz could
bring such looks of satisfaction to
the faces of our friends. But all
of us looked forward with pleas
ant anticipation of our arrival in
Milwaukee, to see if the gentleman
had told us the truth or something
else.
“After arriving in Milwaukee, I
was satisfied that the gentleman
on the train had told ‘something
else.’ Or. buying a daily paper, we
were confronted with a picture of
the prohibition officers with
sledge hammers in their hands
breaking up the equipment of a
small brewery which had been
putting too much alcohol in the’'
‘near beer.’ My roommate decided I
that he would like a drink of beer
and so he began to make inquiries
I of those who ought to know, as to
I where and how he might obtain
| the real article. His thirst was
aroused by a combination cork
screw and bottle-opener which was
very conspicuous in the hotel room
which we occupied. He proceeded
to explain his desire for a drink
of beer by the following soliloquy
which he engaged in for my bene
fit :
“ ‘I wouldn’t take a drink of
that nasty liquor which they se1!
around North Carolina, for any
thing, but a good glass of beer
is down-right refreshing and if
I can get it without too much
trouble, I think I’ll take a drink
or two.’
“1 was silent in several langu
ages. A little later on we met a
gentleman from another Nor:ti
Carolina city and he said to to
us: ‘Have you fellows got your
beer cards yet?’
“We answered in the negative
and he to*ld us of his card. It was

NEW WORLD RETAIL RECORD
CLINCHED BY DISTRIBUTOR
Wihat is claimed to be a new
world's record for retail delivery
>f automobiles has been set by
the Aaron DeRoy Motor Car
Company, Detroit’s Hudson-Essex
distributors, which organization
sold a Hudson or an Essex car
every five minutes in the month
of May. This surpasses the best
I previous record, also made by De
Hoy, in January, when a car was
jelivered every seven minutes.
Actual figures show 2,782 cars
delivered in Wayne County Mich
igan, during the past month, an
increase of 1,261 ears over Ma/|
of last year, which was the best
previous record for the period.
April deliveries were 2,149 cars.
The retail records established
by l)e,Roy have attracted consid
erable attention throughout the
automotive world, and four dele
gations of foreign automobile
dealers, representing makes cftli
er than Hudson-Essex, have vis
ited the DeRoy salesrooms during j
the past month. Aaron DeRov, J
president of the company, ex
plained his methods to the foreign j

Union Services "
Get Good Star t
j Large Crowd Hears Rev.
j Chester Alexander, Pastor
j of Presbyterian Church, at
Methodist Church Sunday
Evening
The large attendance at tha
i union church service held at the
| Methodist church Sunday evening;
! is taken as an encouraging sign
that the plan for union services
each Sunday evening through Ju.y
and August may prove a very
profitable innovation. Four min
isters of the town were present
and took a part in the service.
Rev. J. D. Bundy read the Scrip
ture lesson; Rev. S. L. Morgan
ami Rev. D. H. Tuittle led in
prayer; and Rev. Chester Alexan
der preached. ^
“Our daily conduct either helps
or hinders the cause of Chris#,”
declared Rev. Mr. Alexander, in
his sermon, and he proceeded to
sihow that one’s impression of re
ligion, the Christian religion ct
that of Mohammedanism is gain
ed by the actions of the followers
of Christ or of Mohammed. He
gave a personal experience with
a Mohammedan when in the Fat
East, to illustrate his point.
The text used as a basis f*.r
his sermon was a phrase taker*
from 2 Thes. 1:17—“When He
shall come to be glorified in nis
saints.” Some church
members, said Mr. Alexander,
scandalize the name of Christ and
our religion; some ignore it:
some simply respect it; while
others glorify it. He indicat'd
that Christ is glorified by the
kindly deeds done in His name.
The union service will be held
next Sunday evening at the Pres
byterian church, and the sermon
will be preached by Rev. S. L,
Morgan.
