The ' orptfan homes of our State, whree fatherless : 'V- t - ' . j. and motherless little children are enfolded by devoted and trained servitors and foster mo thers, are the modern sheltcr- ng arms of the" Master whose blessing they received in the long ago. But the blessings to these precious little ones come from charitablyinclined peo ple who contribute to their nur- ture, to their right living their future happiness. To thus be permitted to become an imita tation of Him who doeth all things well, in His Ifovingest mortal guise, is. such a special prviilege, it were sacrilege to think of, even a scharity, when in assuming our Saviour's overt act of blessing others, we are thrice blessed Ourselves.

CAR OF POULTRY k FROM MADISON A noultrv car will be at Uia de'not af Marshall on Saturday, November 13 to receive aU kinds of nonltrV from the fanners and poultrymeit of Madison county. Market nrices will be paid, and it is expected that large quantity of noultrr will be sold. Last year-a ear was here and did a (rood busSnelss. the avenure price being consistent' with the I think some of the folks who go by Highland School must have an idea that we folks out here are run ning some kind of a commissary out at our school, lately we have been re lieved of a brand new axe, water bucket and dipper property of the tax payers of Madison County and a pen cil sharpener machine, property of the teacher. Now folks did you for get something? If you think we are running a store did you not forget to pay for the articles, those things cost money the whosesale - people do not give such things away. We replen ish our stock. You would be greatly disappointed if you come next tme and do not find anything to relive us of I am sure. - What a fuss people are making these days about royalty visiting in America. Queen Marie of Roumania who has been called the most beauti ful queen in the world is visiting us and my I my I what a fuss we are mak ing about it alt What's it all about anyhow! Why should we bow and scrape to royalty. Does that bespeak well for a Democracy? Think it over folks. . Once more election is over, and I reckon the country is settled once more. I am writing this before elec tion day is here but by the time this appears in print it will be all over but the shouting. This election means much to the teachers of Madison Co, and North Carolina, is that which we have been dreaming yes and praying about wul it come true or shall we again be disappointed? I was talking in Marshall the other day to a man and I told aim that I was greatly in terested in the forthcoming election because of the eight-month issue and this nan-looked at me said yes, reckon you all are, it will sure' mean two months' more salary, won't it? I wonder how many people in Madi son uounty-think that teachers are such mercenary creatures as all that? I Wonder if you readers think that is the sole reason that the teachers have for advocating the eight month school Won't yon believe , us when we say that we are thinking of your children as the ones who will hold in their hands the reins of government of this great nation, we are a great nation. We realise if North Carolina is to keep-abreast of the times we must have an educated citixenry to control its actions, other states are iroine a- head in educational ways and if we don't do 1 something we are going to be left af tha bottom, a position un worthy ef the Old North State. Head ers we sanst go ahead, we must think of our citkens of tomorrow being the children who are lookinr up to us now and demanding a chance to. e qoh) themselves to give the children 1 nther wtatw the competition which will be necessary to . keep abreast with the times. LET'S GIVE OUR CHILDREN EIGHT MONTH'S SCHOOL IN EVERT DISTRICT IN NORTH CAROLINA.- - Washington, Nov. 12. With thM- prospect of spending . the winter months in the tropics, Paul Leonard Rector, of Marshall, N. C, is- nowi encamped ..with the .2nd Battalion, 6th Regiment, U. & Marines, at truantanamo Bay, Cuba, v He'. left the United States recently; when, his battalion was ordered abroad, . and ne win probably remain m Cuba un til next April. Paul is 19 years old and; .was $orn in Marshall. He lived at "wiej'h'ome of his father, Charley Rector, Rural Route 4, Marshall, prior to joinong the Marine Corps last May, find in recent weeks has been stationed at Quantico, Va., near here. The battalion has an "ideal en campment on the shores of the bay. The camp has its own electricat-and ice plants, and fishing, boatingTand swimming ane enjoyed every-'month of the year. Every six months a detachment leaves Quantico'-'foj. '-Cuba, for a period Of military' training and recreation. ;3u Some of the daily . papers have been publishing certain statements of Professor Irving Fisher, professor of economics in Yale University with refer ence to the prohibition situa tion. These statements are based on .assured facts, and summarize the 'results of the most thorough investigation ln- jHfftf all phases of this perplexing problem. -s ' A study of these facts and results reveals an interesting condition of affairs. Dr. Fish er believes that the present. status of things, with wide spread violation of the law en couraged by prominent politi cians and newspapers, is intol erable, and must and will be corrected. On the other hand, prohibition is already bring ing enormous benefits, includ ing more than six billion dol lars a year "in cold cash val ues." Real personal liberty, far from being destroyed or even menanced, is greatly en hanced by prohibition; while both personal and social life is being steadily heightened and enriched. " Out of the startling array of proved facts and figures that exhibit of tendencies is that ev- ery Christian man. and woman ' should study . the record of each candidate for public of-'- flee in the coming election, should discover the exact atti tude of each candidate toward this" vital question, and should ; vote only for such, candidates as definitely represent the cause of honor, sobriety and ... . strict enforcement of the law of the land. Indifference jwhich leads to careless voting'or re ' maining away from the polls, allows the friends of the, liquor traffic and nullifiers. of :aw to ; have their own way, ' Thus Christian people sometimes ' are passive partners in the an- - . ti-prohibition m o v e in e n t.

Wall Street Journal,- - terly false are the wild asser tions of the rum-ruled press. Disorderly houses, ministering to social vice, have decreased in New Yory City to an almost unbelieveable extent, ninety seven per cent of these places have been eliminated since al cdholic stimulants were re stricted. Alcoholic insanity has been reduced by more than one-half. Juvenile delinquency has been cut in half. Deaths from acute and chronic alco holism have decreased eighty four per cent since 1920, Beverage alcohol has been re duced by more- than nine- tenths. A vast improvement in health and physical stamina, and in productive efficiency has characterized the early years of prohibition expert. ence. These will steadily in crease as enforcement agencies become more effective. , It is clear to all thoughtfu people that hhtf winfes and beers cannot be legalized with out another Constitutional a mendment. Dr. Fisher's sur vey convinces him that it is utterly impossible to secure .the passage of such an amend ment. All that.the wets can possibly accomplish is laxity of enforcement or nulnfic&tfcrtr; n other words,. enormously io increase the very disrespect for law which they now pretend to deplore.' The only satisfac tory course' lies, in- f uller4 and J stricter enforcement ; and this can be accomplished by publi- pcity, .and by careful and cease less education of the popular mind and conscience. ' . GOOD TOBACCO CROP IN THIS SECTION Col. Ree of Washington Co. ' Tobacco Warehouse Says Prices Will Be Good Johnson City, Tenn., Nov. o10. To - my mind we have the best crop of to- ; bacco in this section that we have , ever had, said Col. Evan Rees, of the " .Washington County. Tobaoc6 Ware- , house, who has been -making a trip -Over the growing section Of East Tennessee and Western North Caro- ,'"' liha, and if the' farmers will be dill- gent in classing and grading their to bacco they will get a good price for it. I was aorry to see some of the farm ers who have house burnt- Or barn ' '- burnt tobacco stripping it off and put-' , tmg it in with their clear tobacco. I , have tried to show these growers that , this will positively spell low prices -for them as the buyers will; not pay ' a good price- for mixed tobacco, and it is the rule of the buyer to buy to bacco at a lower price where it is mix ed. This is especially true if the farmer mixes his bright and red to- . bacco together. The market will open about Die. 2nd. with the buyers anxious to pur chase a good clean and well handled crop, and pay a good price -for it. - Growers must bear in mind that it they have damaged tobacco it must be separated ndgraded to itself, tie ing their bundles at neatlv as nm. , ' sible. ' AGENT STRESSING COWS AND HENS TO AID FARM PEOPLE - ""'v 'wMaasaaaaaaaaaa, -V f County Agent, " Earle Brint nail has a new, motto which he is constantly preaching to the farmers of Madison County. Here it is: "Five cracking good cows and 100 cracking . good ' hens." He wants this amount of poultry land dairy stock on every farm in the county and , the farmers are becoming con vinced that, hts policy is right and; profitable for successful farming. Since Mr. Brintnall . came to Madison County as 7 County Agentrf)ver a year ago, he has 4one much for the far mers "of the county. He seems to he'tiretess'-ln his efforts for better farming and home-life conditions for all the farmers fia-the- connly and good results arebeing obtained. ' Madisoff County is indeed lucky to have such a man as MrV Brintnall for her county ageiit. y : CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our appreci ation and thanks to thS'rood pen- '0 of this and other' communities f r their kindness and assistance dun - the illness and death of our wife t mother. - MR.
