' 1 1 ' f Friday, May 8th, 1925 PERSISTENCY - If consistency is a jewel, persisten cy is its twin brother. Outside of the ; fundamentals of honestry and ability, there is nothing that spells success like persistency. The man who hangs on, while others drop off, is the one who reaches his destination and goal. How many times have we known this to happen, even in the smaller things of life! How often is the sto ry of success written around the fel low who keeps hitting the pace, day after day and year after year. There is no field of endeavor in which per sistency in thrift, economy and small savings. Men have persisted in the fields of politics, and have finally ' reached high positions of state. Youths'have sacrificed at the altar of persistency in seeking education and have seen their ambitions realized". Others have persisted and broken the fetters that bound them to wrongful habits and have been thus permitted to enter into newness of life and fresh | fields of usefulness. Persistency, Persistency, thou too, are a .jewel. LIVING MEMORIALS Each recurring memorial day, to commemorate the fortitude and hero ism of the men and women who made history for the south and for the en tire civilized world, shouid be an ob ject lesson to the younger generation It should be a stimulant for life as well as a memory of death. The boys and girls, the young men and young women of the south, these valiant sol diers in the strife for better and fin er citizenship, who-knew not the pri vations, the suffering either of the body or of the spirit of those who have gone and of those few who re main, can, by their strength of char acter and nobility of action, assuage the sorrow and become living memo rials to the everlasting glory of the southland. Truly, the dead cannot hear our eu logy. It is to the living that we must address our appeal. The memory of. the "soldiers who foil in battle and of the mothers who fell in sorrow-and want, now finds its finest expression in the youth of our land, in the south's great and growing institutions, her schools and universities, her great highways and arteries of travel, her splendid citizenship, her commerce and general advancement. In a spirit of reverence these in strutions and the people who have made them possible now strew the .-flowers upon the tombs of the depart ,ed whom we now honor, and from .whose sacrifices the inspiration for ? noble achievements has arisen. MAKING A GOOD TOWN BETTER The area from which the commun ity receives its principal support and which it serves is often referred to ns the trading area; and the distance which is expected to be reached by lo cal business is called the trading ra dius. In the light of modern usage,, "community" is the given area, eith er urban of rural, that determines the communal relationships, or in which local projects"?commercial, political, or otherwise?are governed. The community is the unity of co-operir . tive achievement. Why is it so important for each rity or town tt endeavor to lengthen its trading radius and broaden its area of commerce? Because in that way communities grow; aud, unlike v many Other forms of competition, the healthy growth of one dity or town does not necessarily injure, and should not be detrimental to the develop ment of the sister communities. This the correct view. It is the right attitude?the American way of budd ing-America. It is an important prob lem and has far reaching effects on the business and the building of towns There are many factors that deter - V . - . - - . * - : - ? I p.

Thus it be hooves each institution to serve well that it may be repaid in terms of . patronage and added strength. "De liver the goods," and let the world know you can. ? ? HE DOES NOT SURRENDER ' -r? ?? S. Hines Scarboro .has lost all ex cept the inborn tenadty to keep on. That is worth more than the farms and the money that siick tongued stock salesmen talked him out of in his old age. That is the basis and bottom of character and that is what the salesmen lacked. He is immeas urably a bigger man than any of their tribe, for if they were built of the same stuff they would repay four fold rather than see him without home or friends. They told plausible stories of mon ey to be made. The world was up side down because of the war, and on top of this illness had overtaken the old man. He was not himself. He listened to their fairy tales of wealth and then came collapse of the dreams they had brought into being. It was in disaster that the character he had built up through long years of work and perseverance asserted itself. The doctors told him he must die. He refuses to die. |fl It isnt a pleasant thing to contem plate old age with no means of liveli hood. It is drab and dreary in the extreme, but it is- a thousand times worse to face old age without having laid the.foundation .of character that asserts itself in times of disaster and refuses to say die. It is not S. Hines Scarboro that is most to be pitted, but the slick tongued scalawags who talked him out of his savings. It may be that his misfortune will be the means of accomplishing that which the law could not do. It may be that .wild-cat companies will be stamped out of this state. There is plenty of law to do it with if there are men with toe courage to do it? N. & O. May 6. *1 L'. ?- v I - 1 ? ju& Received Shipment of White Hats in both *? ?? ?> .. . 1 ? ?.,'jr^ ..
