However, he was not able to return and Judge McElroy order ed a mistrial. Right much of the evidence had been heard and the illness of Mr. Carter was quite a disappointment to the immense crowd . attending court, as much interest was evident in the case. Of course the people sympathized deeply with Mr. Carter, as his illness was quite unexpected and was said to be of the nature of acute indigestion. A special term of court has been set for' September 24 and the list of jurors for this term atears elsewhere in this paper. Thirteen prisoners were taken from the county jail herd Monday to the Henderson county, roads where they are to serve sentences imposed at the August criminal term of court which adjourned Saturday here.

Dear .Sir: On 'Thursday, August 23, we an nounced a new line of Frigidaire e- lectric refrigerators. We 'want you to know that the ad vertising in your newspaper announc ing the new line has produced ex ceedingly satisfactory results. It has been the policy of Frigidaire Corporation to usa newspaper adver tUing' wi the backbone oi its public-' itesimpWl from year to year in volume of bus iness, the,' general public acceptance gain One hour was taken Thursday morninir of court week, from nine to 10 o'clock, for a speech by Dr. W. S. of electric refrigeration and the out Rankin, formerly head of the StaU 8tarf8ing leadership of Frigidaire in Board of Health, now head of the i ,. . . " , ... , . ii Duke Foundation fund for North Car- this field can be credited in no small olina. Dr. Rankin discussed the need (measure to the use of adequate news of a hospital in Madison County and.'Bper advertising space. icrificei Judge McElroy ably backed up what he said by appealing to his hearers to support a bond issue for this purpose rather than let our people go on suf fering and dying as in the past. i Dr. Rankin, introduced to the au dience by Mr. Guy V. Roberts, made a fine impression upon his audience. He explained why Mr. Duke gave his money, from a cold business stan 1- point and not from sentimental im pulses, to establish hospitals in rurall communities instead of giving it ton schools, churches, or other charitable organizations. Sickness and suffering is a common enemy of all, regardless of everything. Everybody great , or small, rich or poor, must suffer some time. The average is 40 sick abed alt the tin in every 1000 population, besides those who are sick in various ways but able to be up. He said that ten per cent of the forty are hospital cases, but many die because they are' not able to go to the hospital. He told of how the best physicians leave the country and go to the cities where they have hospital equipment to work with and how impossible it Is for one physician to equip a hospi tal. He showed how hopitals are sel dom self supporting. He said. that the Duke fund is available if the Count will pat up half the cost of the build? ing and that a hospital to take care of the. needs of this county will cosM equipped, in the neighborhood of $70,000, one half of which will .be forthcoming from the Duke fund.. This fund also provides $1.00 a day for every charity case in the hospi tal. The need of it can hardly be ex plained in the space we can give It now, but the law of the matter ia' tnat to call an election, a petition shonld be circulated and as many .as 200 freeholders must sign to call an. election. Such a petition has already Frigidaire is a quality product and the splendid results we have received from the announcement of our new line are a testimonial to the quality of the circulation of your paper. j .: : Yours very truly, FRIGIDAIRE CORPORATION E. D. DOTY, Advertising Manager. FROM HOT SPRINGS Mr. ad Mrs. Bill Buckles of Flori da were guests of his sister, Mr. and Mrs..O.'W. Grubbs. V Several friends from Raleigh were guests cf Mrs. Izlar last Wednesday. Mrs!, Conner of Bluff, who is at the Mission hospital, is getting along Very nicely. Miss Lena of Knoxvil!e, Tennw spent several days with her cousin, Mrs. Gorden Conley. Mrs. Ellerson spent Tuesday in Newjvprt, Tenn. Mrs. Rice and Miss Louise Rober- a'o"n';6 Abbeville spent the week-end with-tiiss Mary Roberson. .Mi&Pewey Plemmons spent sever al days with home folks at Rosman. and church on time, and he has found a good many Scriptural ex amples that justify his exhortations. In his calendar of January 29, he gives these excellent citaitons: Abraham rose early to stand be fore the Lord (Gen. 19:27.) Jacob rose early to worship the Lord (Gen. 28:18.) Moses rose early to give God's message to Pharaoh (Ex. 8:20.) Moses rose early to build an alter to God (Ex. 24:4). Moses rose early to meet God at Sinai (Ex. 34:4.) Joshua rose early to capture Jeri cho (Josh. 3:1.) Joshua rose early to lead Israel over Jordan (Josh. 3:1.) Joshua rose early to take Ai (Josh. 8:10.) Gideon rose early to examine the fleece (Judg. 6:38.) Hannah and Elkanah rose early to worship God (1 Sam. 1:19.) Samuel rose early to meet &aui (1 Sam. 15:12.) . David rose early to do as his father Uid him (1 Sam. 17:20.) Israel rose early ana founa tneir job rose eariy to oner for his children (Job 1:5.) The Son of God rose early to go to a solitary place to pray (Mark 1:36.) Jesus rose early to go to the temple to teach (John 8:2.) The people rose early to go to hear him (Luke 21:37.) The women rose early to go to the sepulchre (Mark 16:2.) As an old writer puts it: The morning is the gate of the day and should be well guarded with prayer. The morning is one end of the thread on which the day's actions are strung, and should be well knot ted with devotion. If we felt more the majesty of life, we should be more careful of its mornings. He who rushes from his bed to his business and waiteth not to worship in prayer is as foolish as though he had: not put on his clothes, or wash ed his face, and as unwise as though he dashes into battle without arms or armor. Be it ours to bathe in the softly flowing river of communion with God before the heat of the wilder ness .and the . burden of the way be gin to oppress. How better can we do this than by rising early, being on time at God's house for the study of his word in the Sunday School and for worship in his house?
