The western sentinel. [volume] (Winston-Salem, N.C.) 1887-1926, 1897-07-08

The New York Financier says "the
prosperity SO long waited for is a
fact" Where, when and to whom?
If in New York and is headed this
way, please wire us so that we may
summon the populace, with brass
band and booming cannon accom-
paniment, to give it such royal re-
ception as will in some measure con-
vey the hearty welcome which has
been in waiting for SO long a time.
Yes, send the telegram "collect." We
are willing to pay for such news as
that. Send it quickly. Don't stand
upon ceremony or expense.

The people should study the local
taxation act for public education and
it's probable effects. Let each voter
find out how much additional he
would pay, and how much the school
term will be heightened by the
amount that will be paid by his dis
trict and the amount that will be
given by the State, and then let him
calmly and without prejudice ask
himself if he can. with justice to his
own and other children in his district,
decline to pay the SMALL amount
which would produce such beneficial
results.

How To Advertise.

Everybody must see large
advertisement, and everybody
may see a small one.
Liberality in advertising, as
we'll as every other part OF the
business, reduces the chance.
The doing Of a thing as it
should be done may not result
in profit, but if the right way
Of doing something doesn't pay,
the wrong way of doing it can
not pay, and if the poorer way
pays something, the better way
must pay better, Economic if
you must, but remember that
you had better economic on
your advertising last, for the peo~
pie may not know you are econo-
MIXING when you cut here and
there inside Of your business,
but the world knows you are
not doing we'll when you cut
in the size of your advertising
space.

WHERE is YOUR BOY :?

When, after lamplight, we
meet boys of eight and ten upon
the streets we wonder what their
mothers are thinking FOR doing;
what engrosses their mind that
they are taking no thought of
the company their boy may be
in?
Evidently there is not a
thorough questioning relative
to their associates o. t:leir pas
times.
Groups of men are seen skulk>
ing from one shadowy street to
another as if on mischief bent.
Loud laughs, and often vile
language greet the..ear of the pas
serby. And one can but wonder
does ever woman's voice call
you "my SON. OF "mothers boy2'
Involuntarily we blame and
despise the boy who, under cover
of darkness that he counted a
screen against recognition, for
get the flash OF lamplight from
over the way, that betrayed him
as he gave utterance to a
thought so low that we turn
from him in disgust.
But is that neglected street
waif so much to blame after all ?
Is it not the mother of the child
that fully deserves the censure
and contempt one feels /?
Why were not her boys at
home snugly tucked i'll bed, or
seated in their own cosy chair at
her side, listening to some sweet
home story, either read or told
to them ?
Simply because home has not
been made the dearest place in
the world to them, and mother
has not tried to be their friend
and confident.
A mother should be her boys
"dearest FRIEND" and the only
one that shall share his inner
most thoughts. A trust confined
to her is safe. She will never
betray her boy. But without
perfect love ssand confidence in
her, he will drift away and seek
companionship elsewhere.
And then it is hard to bring
them back again, and in many
instances has proven impossible.
