LESSON SUNDAYSCHOOL (Continued From (Page Nine) more complicated by dependence up on commercialized amusement for pleasure, upon going somewhere for thrills, upon needed luxu .ies which made him "soft". At the same time, .this trend is being increasingly aided by business which profits by our abandonment of the'simple life, especially the power ful .amusement, tobacco and liquor businesses. The simple truth is that these interests and those who share in , their vast profits have succeeded all too well in luring Mr. and Mrs. America away from the simple life. Contrary to all beliefs, the simple life is not drab and colorless, it is not unsocial and , miserly living. It is rather living -life according to the true nature of life' as one has come to know it. This means eating food which one knows to be best for his ' body and drinking and eating no thing which he knows to' be valueless or hurtful. It means the' cultivation of the ability to enjoy God's world the flowers, trees, birds, sky, people and homes. It means the committal of life to a worthy purpose, living wholesomely, helpfully and lovingly, using one's influence for the better ment of those with whom one comes in contact. into one of the fine opportunities Available to young men.

FOn THE UNITED STATES GENATE Editorial from the Wilmington (N. C.) Sunday Star-Neic$ "LET THE PEOPLE CHOOSE" The best of all Indicator! of what may ,ba expected of a man seeking a great responsi bility is his past record In a comparable position. As the candidates go before the people of North Carolina in the current political cam paign, the thought expressed most often about this or that one is In the form of a question What has he done to prove that he Is ca pable of the new .role he seeks in public service? And of all before those voters today, none has a better answer than J. Melville Brough ton, North Carolina's war-time governor Who Is now a candidate for nomination to the United States Senate in the May 29 Demo cratic primary.' That answer is in the form of a record of progressive public service unsurpassed In North Carolina in recent , years. Now is an appropriate time to review it briefly. As we do, twelve outstanding achievements high light his administration as the state's Chief Executive from January 7, 1941 to January 4, 1945, one of the most critical periods in the state's modern life. These accomplishments, In which every citizen benefited, are: Enactment of teacher and state em ployes retirement law; Legislation add ing 12th grade to the .publio school system; Nine month school law; State aid to public libraries; Reorganisation of ' state hospitals and' correctional institu tions under consolidated boards; .re moval of sales tax from all food for home consumption; enlarged appropri ations for agricultural experiment and research; notable expansion of the schools of dairying and agriculture and the textile and engineering schools at N. C. State College; establishment of the first State vocational school In the his tory of the state, being the textile school in Gaston County; inaugurated broad program of mineral research and devel opment of mineral resources; organisa tion of Civilian Defense program daring the war, and launching of movement for broad medical ear and hospital pro gram and appointment of commission to recommend appropriate legislation, which recommendations were later en acted Into law. For an administration to have done so much for Its state ' In a four-year tperiod -means that, its leader was not only keenly awark of the varied and numerous needs of the people, but had the outstanding ability to do something about fulfilling them. It Is most difficult to recall a North Carolinian better Informed than Mr. Broughton on the state's people, their problems and, most important, -their future destiny in one of the great com- " monwealths of the republic His return to the role of private citizen has not diminished his forceful interest in his state. The past years have seen him using his fine talents and valuable time in behalf of expansion of industry, development of state ports, betterment of agriculture and .numer ous other concerted programs to improve all North Carolina. His campaign, conducted with all the dig nity befitting the office he seeks, Is based on one theme Let the people choose. ' r The people of the state will deter mine whether or not my experience and service as Governor, legislator and in other public capacities qualify me to serve as their representative in the Sen ate of the United States," Mr. Broughton said In his original announcement. "My . campaign will be addressed to the peo ple. Gubernatorial appointment, under the statute, has filled the temporary va cancy caused by death; but only, the people by their votes can decide who ' wHl represent then In the Senate for the full term. "If I am nominated and elected, as I confidently expect to be,' I will owe no' allegiance exeept to the people. To their service and to the' .national welfare I , will dedicate all the energy and ability thai I possess." 'i :0 - ' On the basis of bis outstanding four-year record in the state's highest office, his con tinuous, intense interest In the state's whole welfare and his ability and determination to serve with distinction . In the world's greatest parliamentary body, we believe 'the people of North Carolina i will choose J. Melville Broughton as their next XJ. & Senator.
