Randolph Soul with you the Saviour pleads, Longs your heart to win. He would fill your many needs. Won't you turn from sin. Ycu have wasted precious years, Lived for pleasure wrong. Sin has filled your eyes with tears, Robbed your heart of song. Life's brief days will soon be thru To turn no more, Come, while Jesus waits for you, At the open door. Let Him give sweet joy for Woe, Take all stain away. Let Him make you "white as snow". Torn from sin today. CHORUS Won't you turn from sin (ri^ht now) Life's fair crown to win ? Jesus pleads.

Wholesale and Retail MONKEY-FACE OWL IS CAPTURED HERE ? Ranging far afield from his us ual haunts, a Monkey- fac^ owl, commonly called a burn owl, but listed in the blue book on birds as the "AIuco praticnola," was captur ed Tuesday near Selica, by Arthur Orr, and brought to Brevard. For several hours the owl was on display in the window of the Pisgah Indus trial Bank, where numbers of peo ple gathered to gaze upon him. The owl was caught in a trap that had been set to catch something that had been stealing chickens. It is a beautiful fowl, with var ious shades of tawney, very finely mottled, dotted and streaked tips. Its underparts are light tawney with some spotting. It has a long face, and almost naked legs. The owl ranges in sections of the United states and Mexico, known in No<"th Carolina from Davidson county to the coast, end seldom seep in the mountain section. SOME THINGS THE FEDERATION OF CLUBS MEAN TO WOMEN The National Federation of Busi ness and Professional Women's Clubs of the United States, under whose auspices National Business Women's week is being celebrated March 10 to 16, numbers 56,000 members, located in 47 states and the Haw aiian Islands. It has approximately 1,100 clubs and 47 State Federations and expends an annual budget of $120,000. At its recent National convention in Mackinac IslanJ, Mich., the sum of $25,000 was raised from the floor in approximately 40 miiF utes as the nucleus of a building fund to establish permanent head quarters in Washington, the national capital. A business reciprocity program whereby business women, members of the Federation, pledge themselves systematically to promote other busi ness women was launched at the same convention. The Federation operates The In dependent Woman, only magazine in the world published exclusively in jthe interests of business and profes sional women. This appears monthly and carries stimulating articles from leading writers dealing with various phases of business women's prob lems. Recently the Federation has com pleted a survey which has disclosed strikingly interesting facts about business and professional women: the vocations in which there is the greatest opportunity for success; the large number of women who are handicapped by the care of depen dents ; the range of salaries possible to women of grade school education, of college and secondary school edu cation, etc., and even the age at which the earning capacity of women begins to decline. The organization is non-partisan and non-sectarian. It is made up al most entirely of self-supporting wo men and numbers on its roster Mrs. Hoover, wife of the president of the United States; Mrs. Calvin Coofitfge, wife of the ex-president of the Unit ed States; seven of the eight women who are now members of the Con gress of the United States; Judge Florence Allen, only woman Supreme Court justice in the world; and Nel i lie Taylor Ross (first woman govern jor in the United States).
