Be Loyal or Get Out

It may be to some employer or
it may be to some cause, but ' the
first prerequisite to decent manhood
is loyalty. The man who is cross

fellow who is constantly halting
and pulling backward ought to be
given a hoe or a sack and pat into
a cotton patch. Elbert Hubbard,
in one of his little preachments,
says that if the concern where you
are employed is all wrong, and the
Old Man a curmudgeon, "it may
be well for you to go to the Old
Man and confidently, quietly aud
kindly tell him that he is a cur
mudgeon.
sil think if I worked for a man 1
would work for him," says Mr.
Hubbard. '"I would not work for
him a part of the time and the rest
of thetimework against him 1 would
give an undivided service or none.
If put to a pinch an ounce of loyalty
is worth a nound ol cleverness. If

Concord, N. C, 14. Chief of
Police Boger receired a telephone
message from the conductor of a
a southbound freight train yester
day telling him to have several
officers at the station to take charge
of a negro murderer, who is want

Sides, Braswell and Earnhardt
went to the station and when the

The Unknown Poor
Lot Angeles Times.
The Bishop of London's first
message to the millionaires of New
York was that they must help ,he
poor. In the sense in which the
bishop meant the message it was to
a certain extent unnecessary, for
the reason that New York mil
lionaires do help the poor. They
are even lavish in their charities.
Thev have endowed hospitals for
the poor, have built homes of re
fuge for them, they give lilterally
to settlement work, and in many
other ways endeavor with money
to pat a better aspect on the life
of the slums.
This is all very well and all very
good, but there is another class of
the poor who are entirely over
looked by tins system, lhe poor
who expect charity, who look for
it and accept it as a matter of
course, appear to le eared for with
ample sufficiency. They are not
allowed to go either naked or hun
gry. But there is another class who
do not stretch out their palms for
the alms that are given, however
freely and with whatever good will.
Where are they, and who aretheyl
And what is being done to help
them?
Alas, there are all too many of
the unknown poor. They are
everywhere and they outnumber,
ten to one, the, poor who publicly
proclaim themselves. Every city
in America has hnnderds of thrm,
Los Angeles leing no exception.
They are all sexes and all ages, and
they can be found only where the
