THIS WEEK'S BIBLE THOUGHT
BACK TO GOD: Seek ye the
Lord while he may be found, call ye
upon him while he is near; let the
wicked forsake his way, and the un
righteous man his thoughts; and let
him return unto the Lord, and he
will have mercy upon him; and to
our God, for he will abundantly par
don. Isaiah 55:6-7.
SILLIEST CONFLICT
One speaker at the small hut in
teres ting meeting- of old folks in
teres ted in old age pensions in the
btate Capitol yesterday loudly point
ed to the many things that have been
done for the young educational fa
cilities, recreation facilities and ether
things and demanded, "What has
been done for the old?"
Well, one thing that has been
done for the old is to give them edu
cation -when they are young. In a
gathering where some men were as
old as 93, education of the young
may have seemed to some like an
enterprise for the benefit of a Deo-
pie oi a ditierent world. But when
old age pensions are provided the
system will be set ud not so much
for the old, who are now with us but
. in the nature of things will soon de
part, as for the great majority who
Deing young are irresistibly growing
oiaer.
Nothing could De sillier in North
Carolina, or anywhere else than a
conflict between the old and the
young over the division of the funds
which government is able to collect
and dispense. Schools are not main
tained for sake of children but for
the sake of the educated adults
which the State needs. Recreational
facilities are not provided exclusive
ly for the young but also for the
stronger, healthier old age to which
those who use them will grow.
This country is already so shat
tered into little tight groups with
conflicting interest that It is all but
impossible to get any whole thinking
anywhere on almost anv nrohlem.
But such conflict would be reduced
to the ultimate extreme of the ridi
culous if the babies and the grandpas
should be set to fighting each other
under the government of State and
to make comfortable and
secure the old age of men and women
In America have the support of a
vast number of Americans of all
ages. Such pensions are needed in
our social order and not merely for
the sake of the old. But more than
old age pensions are needed nr nnv.
thing else, there is needed in Amer
ica, desperately needed, a thinking
in the terms of a whole nation and
a whole life and not merely in the
stagnant terms of the isolated per.
sonal interest of any one interested"
group o r age. News & Observer.

trick, and I wasnt asleep. I had seen
too many millions of buttercups qojt
to recognize the pretty yellow blos
som. There were two of them wide
open on the stem, with several hnrfa
ready to burst. Thev were bloominar
w o
in that space between the street and
sidewalk on the upper end of Church
Street, near the bridge.
How the hardy little plant, which
everyDoay iooks upon as a spring
flower, and which all summer long
blooms in such nrofnsiom -wherever ft
is allowed a chance, sprung up, and
how it withstood the recent cold and
snow, is something to wonder at.
Not only has it come before the
jonquil, which always pop up so
early in Perquimans, but it is even
ahead of the breath o' spring in
some sections of the town and other
early shrubs.
Nervy little buttercup!
