From his own story the people of
Rockingham ought to be able to deter

As to the contradictions contained in his
story they may have been due to excite
Iment, but they certainly look suspicious.
Evans has not the brassy bravery that
characterized Brodie, the Kiltrel
Irapist who was brought here several
months ago. He evidently fears the
consequences.

THE A., II. AND o. AS AN OBJECT
LESSON.
North Carolina Christian Advocate.)

North Carolina Christian Advocate.)
There is in North Carolina certain
railroad less than a hundred miles in
length, and wearing the name Of the At
lantic Ocean and two proud States
far removed from each other. There
were great expectations when the road
was built. It's Importance as a great
trunk line should be commensurate with
Its name. Yet cutting only few coun-
ties, it is one of the smaller feeders of
really great line. But in spite of it's
failure to reach its ideal, it regularly
and effectively plays its little part. 1t
is a fine object lesson. Many persons
have entered the great field of active life
expecting to play a geat part therein.
Their expectations have been disappoint-
ed. Only a limited field and an insig-
lnifcant part are theirs. Some NOPE and
grumble, fold their arms and fall. How
much better it would be for them to
bravely and cheerfully carry out their
little mission. This in itself would be
true greatness.
