Southern Factory Labor,

The continued growth OF manus
factures in the South reveals the
fact that the material for the pro-
ducticn Of skilled white labor is
abundant in the native population.
Nowhere in the United States is
the labor more contented or more
competent than that now employed
in the production Of coarse cotton
goods in the piedmont region. The
success of each effort to make timer
goods than had before been made
in the South attest the fact tnat
the Southern laborer is quick to
acquire both the knowledge and
skill to make progress in tie art
of cotton manufacturing.
It is reasonable that it should be
so In the early part of this Gems
tury this section led in manuface
lures in the United States. In
1910 the manufactured products OF
Virginia, the -Carolinas and Geor-
gia exceeded in quality and in
value those of all the New Eng
land States taken together. Those
people who are now learning to
spin and to weave are the decen-
dante of the mechanics OF those
days and there is naturally an ins
hsrrited capacity to acquire skill as
mechanics.
ii This was once the gold produc
ing region Of the United States. i
was also an important iron produc:
Ing region, and the day was wher
iron was made at no great distance
from Charlotte that found marke
in Boston.
We are acquiring again some
thing of the thrift of the genera
tion Of our grand.fathers, and WI
have about eaehed the point Wheri
we can again find in Boston a mar
ket for products made in this sec
ton by the skill of native labo
and with native raw materials.
All this is very encouraging. l
stands to reason that the labor o
this section will continue to i'm
prove advance, which means tha
Investment made here and here
aboouts will continue in the fptur'
as in the past to make good re
tHrnp, indeed in the matter Of cot
ten spinning and weaving bette
returns than any other sec
tioa can show. We have cheal
raw materials in several lines o
manufactures and an excellent eli
mate, but the facility with which
our native population become
ssilled meehanicg is one Of qul
tAest important resources,-CHdr
t0tte Okseruer.

was accepted to escape the greater

Stop wrangling over the relative

QUIET WAYS ARE BEST.

pittsburgh Commercial-Gazette)
What's the use of worrying,
Of hurrying,
And scurrying,
Everybody hurlying,
And breaking ur their rest?
When everyone is teaching us,
Preaching and beseeching us,
To settle down and enc the fuss,
For quiet ways are best,
The rain that nickles down in shower
A bles ing brings to thirsty flowers;
Sweet fragrance from each trimming
cup
The gentle zephyrs gather up.
There's ruin IN the tempests pa'b;
There's ruin in the voice of wrath;
And they alone are blest
Who early learn to dominate
Themselves, their violence aba.e,
And prove by their serene estate
That quiet ways aresbest.
Nothing's gained by worrying
By hurrying
And scurrying,
With frettiug and with furrylng
The temper's often lost;
And IN pursuit of some small prize
We rush ahead are not wise,
And find the unwonted exercise
A fearful price has cost.
,Tis better far tc join the throng
That do their duty right along,
Reluctant they to raise fuss
Or make themselves ridiculous,
Calm and serene in heart and nerve
Their strength is always in reserve,
And nobly stands each test!
And every day and all about.
By scenes within and scenes without
We can discern with ne'er doubt
That quiet ways are best

estipg session Wednesday night. Mr..
A. M. McPheeters, of Raleigh, spoke
on the subj ect: ''How to teach" His
address was one of absorbing inters
est, as IN his own peculiar and striks
ing manner, he told his experience of
many years of Sunday School teach
ing, esp ecially of his experience for
the last II years IN; the Sunday
School of the Penitentiary. We
wish thNt all the people of our
town could have heard that
talk; it had all the beauty of truth,
all the tenderness and pathos of
love, and all the inspiration of hope.
We feel confident that all who
heard the speech will carry pleas
