Learn To Keep Your Wants Simple Probably the best advice yet offered as a solution to the wide-spread spirit of unrest throughout our country is advanced in the following paragraph "Learn to keep your wants simple. Refuse to be owned and anchored by things and the opinions of others." .. , ve We have dressed after the patterns of Paris, for getting all about comfort and at a tremendous cost. We have duplicated the neighbors' purchases just to keep in style with the Smiths and Joneses when there was no real need for such action. And after we get it all, we are not satisfied. Our standard of living rests too much on what others think and do, and nut on what is right and just A wrong act is not justified because another commits that wrong, but we reconcile ourselves be cause others do the same wrongs.

Before long, it will be obvious that the New Jersey police are impertinent for rvea arresting a young couple over such a trifle. Murder used to be a serious crime, matricide one of the most horrible of crimes. But we're supposed to be modern nowadays?even if we are just a bit "impulsive." England's Educational System When you strike down a nation's educational sys tem, you blast its hopes and destroy its possibilities for future development. Of all the war stricken na tions of the world, England is suffering most. They impose heavier taxes than other nations. Their ed ucational system has fallen more than that of any of the enlightened nations. The grades have been low ered in the public system until only the grammar school is free to all. This was considered necessary that the country might care for its war debt. Yet, the action reaches the very vitals of the civilization of the British Empire, placing that country in the class of defensive nations rather than a leading na tion. Reflection By Makcaket S. Owens (Superintendent Chid Welfare in Martin County) It happened a few days ago?the rain was pouring down. The roads in the county presented a rough picture of red, slippery hills and ditched, muddy low lands. The tobacco and corn bowed their heads un der the strength of the downpour?the doors of the houses were closed, not a soul could be seen. There wasn't much beauty to behold as I rode along the lonely countryside?it was one of those rainy days when one likes to sit by an open fire and read. But there was beauty sitting right beside me?a child. A tanned child nine years of age, with unattractive features but with a soul. She was trying very hard to catch something of beauty out of the past and though young in years she had the mentality of an older person. Her thoughts were of the "home that used to be". Of a mother who deserted her and of a father who gave the last ounce of devotion. As she teflected and put those reflections into words she said. 1 know my father cannot take care of me, but 1 wish he would take me?1 love him". Then folowed illustrations of the deeds of a loyal and de voted father who, because of adverse circumstances, can care for her no longer. 1 have thought many an hour of the influence of that lather on his child and of the moulding of a very beautiful character through that influence. 1 am con vinced that whatever happens to her young life that she will always cling to and hold dear those ideas instilled into her young heart by her father. Well may every parent learn a lesson from this humble, tragic story; yet, one which shines like a heamn be cause that child reflects real goodness in her every expression Arming for War Roxboro Courier The nations of the world are arming feverishly, os tensibly for defense, but this means war sometime-in the near future. A similar activity preceded the out break of the World War in 1914. We may not know, but looks to us that the re-arm ament of the world has been forced by the activities of three countries, namely, Germany, Italy, and Ja pan. The first two are controlled by dictators with a thirst for national glory and adventure. The last named nation is ruled by a military clique and is en gaged in gobbling up as much of China as it can and as fast as it can. We do not believe that either Britain, Russia, France or the United States wants a war, yet they would be foolish not to arm and prepare to defend themselves against possible attack. Disarmament is fine and desirable, but a nation would be foolish to practice li alone.?M. S. HEAD WELFARE WORK IN COUNTY EXPLAINS SET-UP By MART TAYLIOR Saprnntendent.

These payments represent the dif ference in price received by the farmer and the price on 10 spot markets on the day he sold. How ever, if the farmer received as much as 12 cents or more, he is not eli gible to participate in the price ad justment payments It is believed that all farmers in this county eli gible to participate in the payments liave Tiled their sales certificates and applied for the price differential. Producers who had cotton under the 10-cent loan are not eligible to receive price adjustment payments on such cotton and it is not neces sary for them to file cotton sales certificates, Mr. Slade said, explain ing that the price on July 31 was above 12 cents a pound. Mr. Slade pointed out that many farmers in this county who had re ceived cotton price adjustment pay ments have not returned certain papers, known as Form N. C. A. P. 3. To participate in any future! pay ments of any kind, the fanner must return this form properly executed. In other words, a fariper who has not executed and returned the form mentioned cannot participate in any soil program payments. to serve the people in an unbiased, sympathetic and judicial manner. Those in charge of the work here cannot even hope to make this pro gram a success without the coop eration of the people in the coun ty.
