The music was In charge of Mr. C. E Byers, and he was ably as sisted by the pianist, Mrs. Ophelia Rollins, and the pastor did thj» preaching proving that a churen can use its own forces in revival services and get results Crawley Opposes County Farm Agent To Editor The Star: A- the essentiality of a county agent, is up for discussion, I wouid like to say a few brief words on the subject. As for me t have never been able to see the need of a county agent. I have always held the belief that every man knows hts own tricks or his job better than any one else. For instance the man who has split hundreds of cords of wood should understand the science of splitting cordwood better than the man who has never split s stick. Just so the man who farms the earth should know his stuff fully as well as the man who farms on paper, and the intelligent farmer has profited thereby. If you have any doubts in this matter, I can show you finer crops today on farms where the county agent has never set his foot nor an agricultural teacher ever gave a lesson than you will find on many farms where they have had both galore. I don'* think we need any more lessons in the way of producing. We are al ready (they say) making an over production. What we need to learn is how to get a fair price for our stuff after we have produced it. We need to be governed by facts and not fancies. If any one can show me where the county agent has made the county the amount of his salary I will say no more. S. C. CRAWLEY, Lattimore. — WANTED — Experienced Toppers and Knitters, Also Loopers.

Smith, of New York, will appear before the American public in a new role—as the highest paid magazine writer in the world His autobiography, to which he has been devoting most of his time since the last presidential cam paign. is completed, and will start its serial run in last week's issue of the Saturday Evening Post. The manuscript was paid for at the rate of $2 a word, the highest price, according to the publishers, ever given for one of its length. The story of the Democratic can didates eight installments. The one which appeared last week alone brought Smith about »18,60fl. vaiuaDle Document, It Is certain, however, that the autobiography, to which Smith has given the title “Up to Now,” will win a place among the most valu able historical documents of the last 20 years. Aside from its intrinsic value as the work of a presidential candidate and great political leader, it promises to rank high as a social study of New York during the most expansive and progressive period of the city’s existence. Showing once more his remark able development of memory, the "Happy Warrior” has portrayed his East Side boyhood and the roman tic glamour of the teeming, grow ing city of the ’70’s—with its mix ture of peoples, its waterfronts, its political parades, its old landmarks —with a sincerity of detail seldom encountered in previous writings. Boyhood Days. Smith's material grandparents were born in Ireland, but he never knew where his father's parents came from. His father was a boss tjnckman over six feet tall, who weighed more than 225 pounds. But despite his brawn, he fell into ill health and died when the boy was 13 years old. leaving almost noth ing for young A1 and his mother. The same day he was buried, his widow sought and obtained work in an umbrella factory to support her small son and daughter. PAJAMA EDITORS ARE SEVERELY CONDEMED Wilson.—Editorially, the Daiiy Times, local newspaper, commends the local police and condemns the stand taken by the mayor of Eliza beth City incidental to the recent "pajama parade" of Editor W, O. Saunders down the streets of Eliza beth City. The Times says: "Graves and Saunders simply want a lot of publicity, and they are Stettin? it. It, is a pity that the mayor did not have the grit and backbone of the chief of police and allow Saunders to go to bed in jail where he could use his pajamas in the proper place. "An editor who is supposed to be a leader among his people and keep them in the right line of thinking and conduct with a due appreciation of the proprieties, should be served as any one else when he outrages public decency. "There are formi and customs to [ br observed and when they are not. society is thrown to that extent ou‘ of joint. "This is merely a cheap sort, of notoriety and publicity, started by Graves and carried on by Saun ders. who has always desired to stay in the limelight, and has been will ing to take any position and publish anything in order to attain it. ft may make for greater circulation and increased business, but as for us wc do not think it reflects any credit on the newspaper profession and it does not reflect any credii on the mayor of Elizabeth City for not having the grit to prevent Saunders from stalking the streets in his night clothes " LETTING MONEY GET AWAY Bobbie’s birthday guest said he supposed the table is GROANING with good things to eat. “No” replied Bobby, “it’s Dad; he’s been figuring upu what it cost to feed you.” Now if you’ll figure up the cost of Sinclair gas and and Opaline oil in compari son to the mileage and mo tor protection you secure you’ll realize why these products are the most eco nomical in the long runu. It always pays to use the best. That’s why experienc ed motorists always de mand Sinclair gas and Opal ine oil. Cleveland Oil Co.
