Look at the Other Side.
Rev. P. K. Law in Lumbarton Robson

Rev. P. r. Law in Lumberton Robesonian.
Look at the other side. Do not
rush to conclusion upon seeing 3
part Of tho question. This is good
practical advice. Much of the strife
and arrangements, not to speak OF
worse evils that abound in the COM
munity, grow out of lack of OBJ
servance of this common sense rule.
Lawyers are and have been always
not only tho smartest folks in the
world, but also the safest judges of
matters referred to them when other
things were unequal. The reason of
it is that they are trained and accus-
toned from the necessities OF their
professions when in active practice
to study both and all sides of matters
in hand. A large class of people one
meets forfeit their claims upon US for
reliability very quickly by the con-
illusions they hold from a one-sided
knowledge OF the subject in question.
If you would be sure you are right
before you go ahead always look at
the other side.

tobacco market and has recently become
prominent in cotton manufacturing
The Henderson Cotton Mill was built

spindlrs. 1t has since been twice enlarged

SEND THE CHILDREN TO SCHOOL.
With Public Schools So Abundant
There is No Excuse for Children
Growing Up In Ignorance.

We take the following from the
Louisburg Times and cordially COM
mend the sentiments expressed to
the careful consideration of parents:
"All parents should see that their
children attend school regularly. In
this day of free schools, if a young
man or woman does not start out in
life with fair education it is either
the fault Of themselves or parents.
Parents who keep their children out
of school are doing them an injustice.
They get behind their classes-some
important piece Of work, perhaps,
was gone over and explained while
they were away. They do not under
stand it aud are handicapped. This
may cause them to fail in their final
examination and they become dis
couraged. The time has passed when
a man can make a success in life
without an education. The farmer
needs as good an education as the
store keeper. The educated work
man is the one who gets the first pro-
motion because he is worth more to
his employers. In every walk of life
the man or woman of education is the
one sought after"
On the same subject the Clarkton
Express says this:
at is the duty of all parents. who
possibly can, to send their children
to school. Sometimes parents give
as reason why their children are
out of school the fact that they do not
care to go. This is no excuse and is
q great mistake on the part of the
parent. Just because your children
do not want to 60 to school is no rea-
son why they should stay at home.
Send them whether they want to go
or not, and when they become men
and women they will rise up and call
you blessed, while if they are allowed
to grow up in ignorance they will look
back over their past lives with regret
at the time they wasted when they
might have been getting an educa-
ton"

book and Almanac.

With the compliments of the pub
Usher, Rev. I. N. Ivey, d. D., editor
of the Raleigh Christian Advocate, we
have received copy of the North
Carolina Methodist Handbook and
Almanac.
Every family needs an Almanac
containing practical information on
affairs Of the household and the State.
Every family needs also \ Handbook
Of information touching his religious
denomination. Both needs are sup
piled in the one publication, The
North Carolina Methodist Handbook
and Almanac. The contents are full
and varied, giving history, biography,
directories, tables, exhibits, rolls,
memoirs, etc., with half-tone cuts of
the prominent men and institutions
of North Carolina Methodism. The
roll of Sunday-school Superinten-
dents is lengthy and complete,
and is the first one prepared in the
State. In fact, this is the first North
Carolina Methodist Hand book and AL
manac ever published in the State. 1t
is pleasing in appearance, of 15e
pages, neatly printed and durably
bound in stiff electrotyped cover. 1t
is strange that publication of such
Information and artistic merit should
be sold as low as 25 cents a copy but
so it is, and that postpaid. Send for

add power hammer, fan and forge

James b. Burroughs had gone with

Oxford. After the paragraphs had
been set up it was observed that they
were long enough to be put under a
head OF their own. These were set
but Inadvertently each was put in the
place of the other. But it was not
such a bad break after all for no one
who knows him will deny that Mr..
Smerdon is "A Worthy Young Man."
