To-day if yc will hear lvis voice harden not your
hearts!
-. Every Pastor is acquaints with those who for
ever see the faults of others, vbut cannot see their
own. If the sermon is pointed., it always veleis to
someone else :
A good layman said to me last week: "Your ser-
A won started me to thinking Sunctiy. As you 'develop
ed the ?oint I began to say, 'That tits Brother Jones
perfectly." He paused tor a .moment and then said.
"But it happens that my name is Jones too!"
On Sund;f, August 5, 18(i0, Henry Wudsworth
. Longfellow wrote in his danry, "John Ware, of
Cambridge, preached a good sermon."- Abnd then
Longfellow added what many people canndjt honest-''.

If ye will hear his voice harden' not your

The Community Comes To Bat Again
With the appointment of Bruce Jayhes as
general fnanager,' the Mountaineer' Little
League has hit a homer in assurance tor the
community that all the potential value of or
ganized .baseball. for boys will be fully real
ized. ' v-1''""' . . "'' ' '
Those values cannot be over-estimated. In
the excitement of the .past few weeks which
brought a trade Jubilee, a Tobacco harvest
Festival, and a football season that is only
now aproaching its cHmax, the average citi
zen, however sportsminded, -rnay : not have
comprehended the significance of . Little
League baseball. . ' '':'.."
Everyone is interested in the youth of the
nation. They well know that the future is de
pendent Upon our producing a strong, intelli
gent generation of good moral fiber. We de
pend upon our school and oUr dhurchs to
to do most of the training. We, however,' of
ten neglect to allow our. children," properly
guided, to do much of the work themselves.
The potential is in every child, and, if aid and
encouragement is given, the child can do a
better job than anyone else.
Little League baseball is designed to give
the child that chanceThrough organized ex
ercise he' grows strong .physically Through
supervised : competition . he : learns . to think
rapidly, and react quickly. Through,'-the op
portunity provided he finds a healthy outlet
for his energies that. otherwise f might send
him wandering the streets and winding up
behind bars as a juvenile delinquent. " "
The value to the child is immediate and ob
vious; the value to the community is not al
ways so quickly apparent but the dividends
widen and continue as the years go by v
Healthy, in the broad meaning of the word,
boys produce healthy men, and healthy men,
m time, will achieve a healthy community.
The boys become men, and the men each be
come a man.
The cost is small. When measured against
the profits the costs are not worthy of con
sideration. Hazelwood and Waynesville have
been paid a great honor in being admitted to
the Little League, and have been given a
great opportunity. .
We must lay the. foundation now if our
children are to build later.

Remember in the story of ''Mrs.

said there was always something
to be thankful for; and she was
thankful that her two teeth (one
upper and one lower) were oppo
site each other so they could meet.
Of course that was a bit far-fetched
but we wonder hpw many of us
have given thanks for the seem
ingly small things we take so far
granted! We are a race that expects
so much yet fails to realize we
have so much. How about being
thankful for that ray of sunshine
that pushes up our shade in the
morning? And that smile that
warms us as we meet a friend on
the street; and a cheery good morn
ing as we start the day's work? A
sunset of such glowing colors we
stand speechless at its beauty; and

Gambling Tax 1 .
When Congress set up its budget earlier in
the vear. ah item of $40"? .000.000.00 in Inmmp
was listed. This was to be the receipts from a !
tax on professional gamblers, based on 10 per
cent of their gross'take. .;'':'.-r: VrS: ..
The law went into effect last Thursday, but
gamblers in various parts of the country were
showing some reluctance in stepping up and
buying a $50 privilege license stamp. This
would put them on the government records,
which would force . them to make' reports
regularly to Uncle Sam on their gambling
operation. If caught falsifying their reports,
they could be sent to prison promptly.1 At the
same timej, they were contending that 10'per
cent of -their gross would put triem out of
business..':'. ; " 'VX".;: ''"'-'v
We do not know' how legal: gambling is in
some states, but we are certain that pur gov
ernment is proceeding in the wrong direction
by encouraging gambling to the ; extent of
recognizing it as a taxable business. Such a
heavy tax bill, of course, will reduce gambling
to any great extent, and : it will be evaded
wherever possible. 7 ,

MIRROR OF YOUR MIND By
Coniultinf Pfyeholoriit
- Hctual attempts lit suicide showed
a "resigned sort al depression"
tvith- comparatively ftw active
symptoms. It would .even seem
that an act meant as sell-destructive
has a "therapeutic" effect on
"the seriousness of the disturb
ance of the personality," possibly
because such extreme self-punishment
eases the sense of jullt
on which the depression Is based.
May growing old mako mn flirtatious?
Answer: It Is apt to do so
often harmlessly, but sometimes
with the force of a "compulsion"
that may wreck their homes and
learO , their wives heartbroken
, 'unlsas they can understand what
Hot behind their 7 husbands'
chanced behavior. This is the fact
that the average male uncon
sciously needs more assurance of
his masculine attractiveness than
domestic life is apt to provide, and
the more frustrated he has been
in ttys respect perhaps because
of his wife's "taking him for
granted," or perhaps because of
his own inhibitions the more
urgently he may be driven to seek :
it regardless of consequences
"before it is too late." ' .

'There arfe no finer men nnvwhuro
than the Carmichael's. They are of

ters is that Billie Carmlchncl has

North Carolina within the past
decade than Frank Graham or any.

tion.:' -
Carmiehael might consider re
signing his position with the Uni
versity If Jim Tatum should come
there as coach. He knows that a lot
of people would come up with the
old "family affair" cry. His loss
would be much worse for the UnU
versity than having several poor
football teams to account for'.

Are tome people incapable of
loving?
Answer: Yes, particularly those
who never have outgrown what
we might eall the "power stage"
of emotional development You
may see this stage In the small bo
whose approach to a newcomer
in the neighborhood Is, "I can
-lick you." It is sometimes called
"pre-personal" because it does
not recognize another as a person
. but as an obstacle to one's own
self-will, parents who feel this
way toward their children, like
husbands and wives who are pri
marily concerned with which
shall be "boss" are incapable of,
really loving because love Is a
relationship In which another
person Is enjoyed, not dominated.
