Another splendid proposition the

paying the tax into the city street

much employment that he certainly

The Republicans of Ardmore are
committed TO these things as well a'

ism.

To the Editor: We were standing
under the electric lights in a beauti-
ful suburb of Boston. He was we'll
known gentleman connected with a
leading Latitution of the vicinity,
and had travelled in North Carolina.
/ was speaking of the evidences of
wealth and luxury on every hand and
of the sharp contrast presented by
my own State, where We We're only
beginning to be comfortable.
Yes" said he. but North Carolina
has the advantage OF Massachusetts
after ALL In the first place North
Carolina is the most sanely progress
sive of the Southern States, and Will
soon have all she, needs in provision
for material well-being. But far
above that are the blessings of the
higher life of the spirit and these
your State preserves. Our life in
Massachusetts is overfowed by the
land is fat with physical comfort. The
purse is full, but the heart grows
empty. North Carolina has the no
bier riches of sentiment and feeling,
the riches of the ideal world, which
give to life its grace and dignity
And l thought there was something
in what my friend said. North Car
olina has no surer guarantee of no
BILE leadership in the great future in
to which we are entering than the
strength and purity of her idealism.

A BREATH OF LIBERTY.
That is What a Touch of North Caro-
lima Means.

You have asked me to write a brief
article that has a touch of North Car
olina about it, So wide a commission
does not form an easy task, though
the best part of my life having been
spent among this people, | feel close
ly drawn to them, and realize some
thing of their spirit. A touch of North
Carolina means breath of liberty,
a sturdy independence and intolerance
of oppression, refusal to be driven. a
willingness to be led by those whom
they trust even up the deadly heights
of Gettysburg; a touch of heroic pa
tience and of strong endurance when
toll and poverty and fortunes rever-
sails are to be met, a gleam of old
world chivalry in gentle courtesy to-
all things holy, rugged simplicity,
a hatred of shamS. an indomitable
hopefulness.
All these things, fifty blended, have
in them the making of a great people.
The Christmas season, with its re-
minder of Gods priceless gift to the
world, should keep us from all fool
ish boasting, for these qualities of
heart and mind are His gift also, and
their brightest use is in His service.
May the New Year bring to each one
of us hearts brave and true and will
ling for the days work.
