"Our American Way*' "A Parable /. "Democracy is like a great tree, capable of producing rich, lucious fruit But like all fruit trees, it needs care. It must be wanned by the sun of faith in human nature and watered by the refreshing rains of understanding. For what too many of its branches become useless and the tree fails to produce good fruit it will be cut down and thrown into the fire. "This tree may also be 'destroyed by the worms of doubt gnawing at its roots, or by the dry rot of in difference which weakens its trunk. Or the pests of alien ideas may begin to feed upon its leaves and bring a blight upon its fruit ? To guard against those dangers from within constant vigilance on the part of those who would enjoy the fruits of liberty." The North Carolina Clubwomen have resolved to do their bit in safe guarding thin tree of - democracy by tracing out its various roots and by studying the soils which nourish them. Mrs. John D. Robinson, state president is f?1ri'r'gr the initiative in thia pioneering movement which is gaining nation-wide notice. In connection with the visits to in dustrial plants now being made by clubwomen all over the state, they are making a serious study of a book published by the Woman's Division of the National Association of Man ufacturers called Primer For Ameri cans. Members of the three Farmville dubs with the Federation, the Woman's Club, the Junior Wo man's Club, and the Literary Club, are planning to set aside Thursday, March 13, to study the book. ? The three groups are to meet at the home of Mrs. J. M. Hobgeod at 10:30 a. m., each bringing a covered or some contribution for the joint luncheon. It is expected that the study will be concluded by 2:30 or 3:00 p. m. The splendid chore of teachers secured for the presentation of the four sections of the book, Mrs. Hobgood, Miss Mamie Davis, Mrs. Jesse Mo ye, and Miss Elizabeth Davis are a guarantee of a concise, lively program. There is no use to worry about the powers of the President to begin a war. Every president of the United States has had ample power to begin warfare. .
