things; and follow 1 after righteous

meekness. Fight the good fight of
faith, lay hold on eternal life.

GOOD TIME TO ORGANIZE
A COMMERCE BODY
Speaking of prosperity, and every
body is speaking of it right now,
you know; it is years since there was
so much Optimism in business.
As a matter of fact, it is years
since we folks here in our own little
community have been so prosperous
as we are this fall. We are putting
up new buildings, making improve
ments here and there, starting new
businesses, adding side lines to our
regular lines, expanding in many di
rections. The prices of farm pro-
some lIHMIOJI-r V
And speaking of the matter, as
every one is, for it always comes up
in any little v" group ,of, folks who
gather to- discuss the general con
ditions in Hertford,, they .say. we
ought to have a greater share in the
general prosperity; They will also
tell you what must be done in oroer
to bring about the desired condition.
All agree that in order for Hert
ford to grow that there must be
more smokestacks here, industrial
plants, larger payrolls to liven up
business. Everybody agrees on that
They say we've just got to have
something doing in the way of manu
factoring if we really wish to share
as community hrthe propeflty that
should be ours.
- Arid they will tell : you another
thing, too, if you listen. Strangely
enough.they all agree ort that,, also.
They say that, though we have the
natural advantages at hand, that
there is no one to put the thing
across, to sell Hertford to the in
terests with money to build factor
ies, no one to induce the location of
any kind of a manufactoring plant.
They will tell you that in order to
handle this situation there should be
some leader to head an organization
which has for its objective the build
ing up of the community, who would
take steps to induce men with money
to invest to consider the Town of
Hertford as a location for industrial
plants.to call attention to the desir
ability of the location and so on.
And after they all agree on that
point nothing more is said. They
stop right there. Nobody does any
thing, as Mark Twain is credited
with "saying about those who com
plained of the weather.
This seems strange when one con
siders that these men who indulge in
this sort of talk and reach these con
clusions are men who have made a
duce are better than they have been
for a long time, and every one has success of their own affairs by going

Both boys and girls hardwood
teams are ready for action and have
sent out letters trying to schedule a
few games,.- So far, the only games
that the teams have been able to ar-
i range will not take place until Jan
uary,
... Both teams are hoping for a game
before Thanksgiving and a plenty
full schedule for the rest of the bas
ketball season.
. The girls have been playing the
girls local team on Friday and they
have been having some good games.
The boys have "been playing a few
games with the local boys and this
scrimmage has helped a great deal
' I predicted Duke to take .Carolina
by a small score. I was right about
Duke taking the game but I sure did
miss the score business.
The Duke Blue Devils plastered
the boys from the Hill 27 to 7 in a
battle played before thirty-five thou
sand spectators. Ace Parker, Capt
of the Duke Eleven, and who will hit
the All American list this year, re
turned a Carolina kick-off for 108
yards for a Duke score. Some new
and beautiful blocking by the Devils.
A hundred and five yards is a long
run in anybody's game.
But tragedy also marked that
beautiful run made by Parker. A
spectator, a rormer Carolina man,
dropped dead with a heart attack as
the "Ace" sprinted the length of the
field for Duke.
I was plenty wrong on the Army
and Notre Dame score. .1 predicted
Army to take the Irish, but Notre
Dame came back in beautiful style
and swamped the boys of the Army.
This week I think I will try a few
more predictions. I pick Fordham
to take Georgia. I may be wrong,
but I pick Notre Dame to Continue
their climb after last Saturday over
Army and to defeat Northwestern.
My opinion is that Georgia Tech will
defeat Florida. A few others are:
Stanford over California.
Oregon over Oregon State.
Indiana over Purdue.
North Carolina over South Caroli
na. Southern Methodist over Baylor.
Ohio State over Michigan.
Darthmouth over Princeton.
Texas Christian over Rice.
Colgate over Syracuse.
Harvard over Yale.
Wonder how many of these I hit
and; how many I miss.
