A BIT 'O HEAVEN
God took ray of Sunshine
A little star or two.
He took a pink and fleecy cloud
Picked out from Heaven's blue.
He put them all together

And, dropped them down from

THE "ISM" PREACHERS
"There are persons who constantty
clamor. They complain of oppression,
speculation and pernicious incry
out loudly against all banks and
corporations and all msana by which
small capitalists become united to
order to produce Important and bens
tidal results. They carry on mad
hostility against all established Inaftitutiona.
(They would choke the
fountain of Industry and dry all
streams. Ia a country where proper

tar tgnrtan doctrines. In s country
ahere wares of labor are high beyond
parallel, they would teach the
laborer he ta but an oppressed flare.
What can each men want? What do
they mean,? They want nothing but
1r enjoy the fruits of another man's
labor.'
This statement was made about
one hundred years afco in the United
Mates Senate by one of the greatest
American statesmen ? Daniel Webster.
The fact that the American system
has given the highest standard
of living on earth Is disregarded.
The fact that the American. workmen
have luxuries enjoyer only by
the well-to-do or official class abroad
is covered up. Fortunately, the Atnerlcan
people, secure in the knowledge
of their heritage, don't saass
to be fooled very easily by theaO
detractors sad their assorted
"isms."

It has boon much ploaaure working
*ithi the people of Kings Mountain
and I will atwoya cherlth the memories
of the daya spent here.
The Editor took the count over
the week-end with a slight case o?
flu. He was back on the Job today no
worse for the rest Note to Mother
Lynch In Qoldsbdro: Haywood Is O.
K., no need to worry. Really don't
think he was sick, just vacationing.
Wonder wpiat Charlie Thorn a aeon
will drink out of the Lions Club cup?
Invite ma up Charlie.
If you ever want to do someone a
real mean trick sometime and cant
t'link of the meanest thing In the
word ? see a wrestling match, out
of the hundreds of mean things thay
do you can select the best.,
I wonder If they talk like that In
v.rglnlaf Possibly, I haven't been to
every town In the State, I wouldn't
knew.

The recent kidnapping of Chart I
McCarthy smelled to high hoavon of
the cheap publicity roqueated by his
owner ? wall after all who owns
Charlie, there ie the answer. Cantor,
Winchel and on and. The plays that
Cantor has *made at the eacrodness
of the home to draw his shook, they
call it in the language of his roes
kibitxlng.
To the throe people In town wh >
read this oolumn: When you read
this I'll be many miles away What
was that you saidT ? that's alright.
I had to. write it, the boss wouldn't.
Any way (t did bring back memories
of earlier days when I did oolumn.

hey Just didn't make the grade.
Mart In Luther Harmon, who was la
town and who wrote a swell basket
ell stcry wbVh didn't get In, had a
good suggestion. But ws won't tin
you about It here. Evpn Haywood
was disgusted after he f* M. He
had a rifht to be.

It was hearbhreeklng to,- aee the
local Lions have to lose that game
Monday night. But the boy* played
a sweel.ggme. Probably oft a ' Obtle
on the defense but bad' they toads
half of thhoee shots that bounced
around the basket, the game would
have come out tar different. Chester
Crowell (the Great) played one of
the beat games we've eeen him bl*7
But he dMnft hatve Joe to con tend
with, so that's probably only ngfk
ral. Joe talked him down la that
game on the previous Monday night
and shot lots of pctnta over the Lib
tie hoid. But even Joe hasn't palled
one to tie the shot that Little made
In that game. It was sort of a stoop*tiuat

slightly behind them, the machine

behind drhwa curtains, aimed
directly at the rows of British
Tommies who sat op posits across
the court.
The M| ceremonial drum began
to boom, and Carruthere and the

But Ghul reassured them with a
patronising smile. "Rest at ease,
gentlemen ? that was only the

The dinner proceeded, and a.

of the ceremonial drum. After
