Dr. Vann Addresses Baptist Association Pledges Taken to Pay Tuition of 2.'i Ministerial Students at Moiling Springs This Year. At the Thursday morning meeting of the Kings Mountain Baptist asso ciation here the 22 ministerial stu dents at Boiling Springs high school were present and after nn inspiring address by Dr. K. T. Vann, pledges were taken from the congregation to pa ythe school tuition of these in dents who will later go into the serv ice of their master. Individual . churches and classes, pledged ovri $500 toward this end. The morning Session was featured by the report on woman's work made by Mrs. Fred Washburn, the report, on education by Rev. C. J. Black and the report o Boiling Springs high school, the in stitution fathered by the associationv in this part of the state, Dr. Vann, upheld the denomination al schools of N'orth Carolina, declar ing that in his 25 years experience-tie had never found a teacher in a Chris tian school who did not believe ip God and the Bible. He also contrasted the influence of Christian schools on C." life of students and while he did no' refer'to evolution which is under such brond discussion, he declared that the Bible will stand, that God has always been on his throne despite the n w theories that are trotted out to dis turb the minds of some. "There is an unseen power behind thp, morn! ns well as the civil law and to you arai to me this power or force that co. trols nature is God himself. We can not break a law. We can disobey the law but the law itself stands. We are the ones that break," declared Dr, Vann. His rinsing appeal was for church unity, patience and tolerance within the denomination. Naming 'Em. (Stanley News-Herald.) Mrs. Frank .Tories, of Bin Crick, Tennessee., says she has never henr.i a name which she cares to give h. r four-year-old girl who is still namelesr for that reason. That reminds us <d the old colored woman in Stanley conn ty who failed to satisfy her mind as to the best sounding name for her "chocolate drops.” Finally she at tended a term of court in Albemarle nnd hearing the lawyers talking about "Larceny,” she returned home and told her husband that she had m last found a pretty name. “We’ll cull her Larceny,” she said, and so they did. May be "Evolution" would make a suitable name for the Tennessee baby. If you must strike a man from be hind, slap him on the back,-—Ex change.

Many mothers will tell you that they not Only can but do They will cite till kinds of examples, tolling you how this one saw an accident anti the blood 1 formed u wing-shaped pool. When tin child was horn the next day, it hqd a liifth mark a red stain just like blood and its shape was that of a but-: terfly. “It W; s due to the sight which the mother had witnessed.” Well It was not! Iiirth marks are little tumors made up of blood vessels and they are pro duced by a defective development ot the circulatory system. The excite ment the mother may have felt had nothing to do with the matter. .Some mothers say that they are quite sure that because they spent hours at tie piano before the baby was horn, the child was a musican. Others read poetry In the hope that they will make their offspring poets. Many go to the art galleries to study the painting; in the hope that they will have children famed as artists. Why 'is it that some mothers who do a'l these things have commonplace children who have no car for music, no love for poetry and are bored by art'.’ And why is it that the son of a woman who by some unfortunate turn . in affairs, has to scrub floors for n living and l as to keep up the work until shortly before the baby arrives, does not have a inop-compU x hut may j he singularly gifted as a sculptor? Let me tell you something. The mo ment the two gcrminative cells united a new life began and its characteris tics were all there at that moment. They may l>c characteristics domin antly the mother's or they may be those of tlie father; certainly they will be a mixture of qualities wnich came down from all the ancestors of both parents. A child may be more like; his great-great-great grandmoth er than like either. No matter, lie will have inherent talents at the mo ment of concepion and if he is n <t a member of a family with latent or previously active talent, all the hours spent at the piano will not make him a musician. What a terrible race of monsters we should have in the world if mater nal emotions, aroused by the sights and accidents of the day, or if her ac tivities could “mark” the unborn, help less infant! That it is impossible f<w a mother to “mark” a child, we should j he thankful. I Stop a Bit and Grin i When your castles all are falling. And your hopes are plowing dim; When trouble’s on you calling, And you can't pet rid of him; When the world looks dark and low ering. And the sun is out of eight; When your soul with dread is cower ing And you want to quite ihe fight—■ Pucker up your lips and whistle, Stop a bit and grin; Start right in and smash old trouble, Swat him on the chin; Bo a game sport in the battle, Stick it out and win; But, no matter how you struggle, Don't forget the grin. For fortune loves the fighter, Loves the man with gric to smile, When his fate hangs in the balance And his manhood is on trial. So, whatever is the trouble, Stop a bit and grin, Pucker up your lips and whistle, Then —wade—in. Boy s World.

TIME—10 O’CLOCK THURSDAY, OCT. 1ST, 1925. PLACE—IN FRONT GRAND STAND AT FAIR GROUND. J. H. FAULK, Owner COLUMBIA, S. C. Clearing the Decks. (From Hickory Record.) Now the “silver tongue of the South' enters the field of battle and the state is given further assurance that justice will be done in the matter of the Cole-Ormond murder case. Mr. Hoe'y is a brilliant lawyer, a stirring orator, and a master on cross exam ination; but the lawmen might con ceive of the possibility of clumsying the fight with too many legal stars. With one good lawyer appearing for the state and another good lawyer ap pearing for Cole the chances are that justice would be handed out just as impartially and just as promptly. But Mr. Hoey’s entrance in the case gives indication of a sensational fight, added to the sensationalism that had already piled up. De doubt if any case in recent years has had such an appeal to the spectator as this very Cole-Ormond case. It is tu wealth and prominents of the pcopv concerned, and the mystery surrounj. ing the act. The Monroe case which still rc. mains unsolved would almost rival it if the principles had been of prom inent connection.
