C., un der Act of March 3rd, 1878. APPLE TIME We don't know who invented apple pie, but whoever it was ought to have a monument. If there wasn't any thing else to do with, apples but make pies of them it would still be worth while to keep up the orchards. But when you come to think "of it, there isnt any other fruit that grows that has so many uses, which can be served in such a variety of ways, all of them good. Apple sauce is good eating just as it comes from the kettle, or with rich, thick cream poured over it, or as a side dish with a nice, tender slice of roast pork. Baked apples are best; we think, when every bit of the core has been carefully taken out and the hole filled up with brown sugar and cinnamon before they are put into the oven. There are some folks who take the skin off the ap ple before baking it, but to our no tion that takes away a lot of the flavor. Then there is apple butter, which reaches its complete perfection when spread on hot biscuits at break fast, to say nothing of apple dump lings, fried apples, they're fine with sausage, the good old fashioned dish that used to be called apple slump, and a dozen other wonderful varieties of food, all obtained from the apple, not forgetting the "aepelkuchen" of our German friends. And cider. There's nothing in the prohibition law that says that cider mustn't get "hard." An old Yankee trick used to be to set a keg of hard cider out where it would freeze, then bore a hole through the ice to tap the concentrated apple flavored alco hol in the middlej. We never tried that, nor have w>e made any exten sive experiments in distilling cider ? into applejack; though some of our | convivial friends speak highly of its B potency. We are content to take our | cider as it comes from the jug, | though we know old folk who prefer I milled cider, which is achieved by E heating poker red hot and plunging I it into the individual mug or tank- E ard. We don't hear so much these days I of dried apples. Canning has taken | the place of drying, largely. Yet E dried apples had their points. We I never could quite agree with the poet E who penned the immortal lines that I ran: ? E "I hate, abhor, detest, despise Abominate dried apple pies. Tread on my toes and tell me lies, E But don't give me dried apple pies." B Even dried apple- pies are better |j than no apple pies at all, ju3t as any E kind of apple pie is better than most E any other kind of pie. THE OUTLOOK We notice that the President's Emergency Committee on Employ I ment is telling people over the radio I to keep all the you' g people in school fl I this coming winter instead of letting H I them go to work and take jobs which H I might otherwise go to men and worn- l! I en who have family responsibilities. 1 We think that is sound advice, unless fl the head of the family is out of a job fl and the boy or girl can get one where fl the old man cant. Governor Huey Long of Louisiana, I has got his law passed making it il- fl I legal to grow cotton in that state next fl fl year if three-quarters of the other fl I cotton states will do the same. That I I ought to help, if somebody will show fl I how the cotton growers who depend fl upon that crop for their sole cash in- 9 come are going to get along during fl the cotton vacation. He Farm Board, which has more fl wheat on hand than it knows what j] I to do with, is asking the Shipping ? I Board, which has more ships oa ij I hand than it can nee, to lend some fl I of ihoee ships to take wheat to Chi- I na, where the people are starving bat fl will be able to pay for the wheat in fl time, if tha wheat gets to them in | time to save their lives. That soundsJfl like good sense to us, especially if jl | the wheat it packed in cotton sacks,|| which will help the cotton growers || Governor Ecosevelt, of N^w York,II has got his legislature to agree tolfl one rood war to helu ^^nother ie ffl gowu jfl l-v . > -v .

Trust in God still lives, And the bell at morn Floats with a thought of God O'er the rising corn. God comes down in the rain, And the crop grows tall? This is the country faith And best of all! JOINT HOSTESSES One of the most delightful affairs of the season was the bridge lunch eon on Tuesday of this week, when Mrs. George Hclston and Mrs. Lath Morriss were joint hostesses at the home of the latter to their card club and additional guests, making nine tables in play. The color scheme of yellow and green was used in cut flowers and appointments. A barbecue luncheon was served at 1 o'clock, after which bridge, was played. The club member's award, two lovely vases, was won by Mrs. C. T. Dixon, and the guest prize, an at tractive flower holder, was presented to Mrs. Madeline Rountree. Out of town guests included: Mrs. Eugene Clayton, Roxboro; Mrs. Stan ley R. Lee, South Boston, Va.; Mrs. Frank Capps, Raleigh, and Mrs. G. A. Roebuck, Robersonville. LOST, STRAYED OR STOLEN? White and brown spotted pointer dog, answers to name of "Sport"; right front leg has been broken. Five dollar reward for return to R. L. Smith. This is the time of the year that hay-fever victims wonder why the world has to have hay.
