Did you notice the advertisement in
the Charlotte News of last week? . . .
it seems to have attracted considera
ble attention in that city ... it read . .
"Wanted A Master High School
graduate with good references will
sell himself into slavery for his keep.
I've got to eat." The News stated
that it was the first time since a cer
tain war that slaves had been advert
tised for sale in Charlotte. The boy's
name was withheld, but the letters
offering to take him on , . . poured in
by the scores ... the paper did not
attempt to answer them all . . the fine
spirit of a boy who was so determined
to get honest work ... in this day of
easy relief . . . seemed to have caught
the imagination of the public . . . the
boy is not anyone's slave . . . but has
landed a good paying job . . thanks
to his ingenuity of advertising. . .
I the poem was contributed to this col
I umn bv the author . . . Mahpl C.nffev.
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Coffey,
. . . who graduated last year from
Carson-Xewman College . , . and won
many honors in English in which she
majored. . . .
Last Sunday at the promotion
day program of the Methodist
Sunday school Mary Ruby Nich
ols received a handsome gold
award for attending Sunday
school for ten years with
out missing a day . .... and
Caroline Curtis also award
ed a gold star for a perfect rec
ord for nine years . . . and I would
like to add a verbal award to the
homes from which each girl came
. . . it's mighty easy for the
heads of the household to sleep
late on Sunday morning . . . and
feel that just missing one Sunday
isn't so serious ... it takes ener
gy and interest in the home for
children to make such records. . .
The following poem should make us
all pause and wonder if we possess
the spirit of contentment in our inner
souls . . . that cannot be disturbed by
outside forces . . . a rich enviable
quality of reserve strength that helps
tide us over the rough places in life . .
"TIME MATTERS NOT
Time matters not
When one is content
Always content,
Hope does not wait outside,
It lingers in the inner self,
It is always so.
Even now, it is hidden here
In the receptacle of life,
In the bosom of my life,
Blooming.
Ne'er will it fade.
For once I have it in my grasp
I cannot let it go.
It is the very heart of me
It is the greater part of me
Fond hope God it must not go!"

Bird Is Ruining
The Grape Crop
(Continued From Page One)
tion :
"I had a fine lot of grapes, but the
birds have destroyed most of them
before we could gather them. The
birds destroyed at least $75.00 worth
for me and messed them up so badly
they were not worth gathering. It
is a small bird evidently of the warb
ler family, dull yellowish gray above
a lighter yellowish gray below, with
breast streaked with both colors. It
has a beak like a needle. It does not
eat grapes, but simply pricks holes
in them and lets them ferment for
the bees to get drunk on the next day.
"I have seen many berries with two
holes punched into them about 1-16
inch apart as though the bird had
not even closed its beak in pricking
them. Could it suck the juice of the
grape without closing its beak in
pricking them ? I have turned things
over to them this year. There are
thousands of them evidently mi
grating, but they will not bunch so
one can shoot them, and they will not
scare off any more bees. They are
too small to shoot singly. They do
not seem to eat any grain or meal
and only destroy grapes and eat a
few moths. I will try to get a few
and send with this letter."
A.Mr. Frank Burns, of Berwyn, Pa.,
writing in the Auk Magazine several
years ago, described in detail the
great damage done to the grape crop
in his region of Pennsylvania by the
Cape Mae Warbler. Speaking of the
damage he says: "So far ts I am able
to learn all unbagged grapes were
ruined. The loss must have been
tons, worth several hundred dollars."
Miss Boggs states that she observed
abundant migration appearing on the
following dates: April 29, 1923, April
24, 1929, April 27, 1932, May R, 11M,
April 29, 1935, April 22, 19HG.
Mrs. Harry Hall, who has observed
the bird on her place states that she
has never seen them bother the
grapes, and comes to their defense
with the fact that they destroy harm
ful insects on rose bushes.

At the dedication of a new school

"decide you don't like politicians,
