A Christmas Present That Means
Something

There is one especially good thing
about a Christmas present OF The
Youths Companion. 1t shows that the
giver thought enough of you to give you
something worth while.
1t is easy to choose something costing
a great deal more which is absolutely
useless but to choose a present costing
only $1.75 that will provide a long
years entertainment, and the uplifting
companionship of the wise and great, is
another matter. There is one present,
however, which does iust-The Youths
Companion.
Ii you want to know whether it is ap-
propriate or welcome, just visit the home
Of some Companion subscriber on Com
panion day.
Do not choose any Christmas present
until you have examined The Com
panion. We will send you free sample
copies and the beautiful Prospectus for
1911, telling something OF how The Com
panion has recently been enlarged and
improved.
The one to whom you give the SUBJ
scription will receive free all the num-
bers of 1910 issued after the money is re-
ceived; also The Companions Art Calen-
colors and gold. These will be sent to
reach the subscriber Christmas morning,
If desired.
You, too, as giver of the subscription,
will receive a copy of the Calendar.

LET US GIVE THANKS.
President Taft Issues Formal Annual
PROCLAMATION Designating Thurs
day, November 24th, as a Day of
Thanksgiving and Prayer.

Washington, Nov. G.-The vigor-
Gus growth and progress of the coun-

general conditions of international
peace are things for which thanks

"This year of 1910 is drawing to a

harvests, which are the index OF
progress, show vigorous national
growth and the health and prosper
GUS well-living Of our communities
throughout this land and in our
possessions beyond the seas. These
blessings have not descended upon
us in restricted measures, but over
flow and abound. They are the
blessings and bounty Of God.
eve continue to be at peace with
the rest of the world. In allessential
matters our relations with other
peoples are harmonious, with an ever
growing reality of friendIiness and
depth OF recognition of mutual de-
pendence. 1t is especially to be noted
that during the past year great pro-
gress has been achieved in the cause
of arbitration and the peaceful settle
ment of international disputes.
"NOw, therefore, |, William Howard

Southern Heroines.
Wilmington Star.

w lImlnStOn SIdr.
Some time since, a movement was
set on foot by the United Confederate
Veterans Association to erect a
to the Women OF the Con-
federacy. The country never more
heartily welcomed proposition and
when the undertaking assumes a
more definite shape it will meet with
the most reverential enthusiasm. No
movement was ever more deserved
than a suitable memorial to the
heroines OF the Civil Wharf.-The South
ern women who sent their fathers,
husbands and sons to the war and
remained at their homes to heroically
face the trials and vicissitudes i'm
posed upon them by war. What ter
rible sacrifices Southern women made
during the four years struggle which
called for the best manhood of the
Southland! 1t was the women who
had to sacrifice their loved ones on
the altar Of their country but they
had brave hearts and amidst dread
alarms, anxiety, anguish and suffer
ing they bravely bore the conse-
quences of the titantic struggle.
No country on the face OF the earth
ever had a womanhood so glorious
Their patriotism, loyalty and devo-
tion was sublime. They faced dan
gers with stout hearts. They went
through trials and hardships with
out murmur. They risked desola-
tion and famine. They were minister
ing angels to the sick and the wound
ed, and the badge of mourning they
wore for fathers. husbands and sons
who fell on the bloody fields of battle
was the crowning glory OF their forti-
tude and devotion. 1t is fitting,
therefore, that the grandest monu-
ment beneath Southern skies be rear
ed to the heroines of the strife.

Pride Must Swell the Heart.
Wilmington Dispatch.

Naturally Southern folks take an
interest in everything OF note an
American does and have their hearts
throb with pride, but, of course, it's
only just natural to feel a little bit
more the rufh ofwarm blood through
their veins and to have their pulses
quicken when a Southern man wins
distinction. Family love and family
pride are great factors in stirring the
heart. SO pride is compelled to bub-
BILE over the success of Woodrow Will
son in New Jersey. 1t was a greater
victory than under ordinary political
circumstances, because Woodrow
Wilson entered the field to battle
against great odds and with his can
didacy looked upon as joke. But
this remarkable man demonstrated
his ability, his fitness for the govern
orship, OF New Jersey, and the people
realized. Other folks than those of
New Jersey realized, too, and having
bearing on this we copy, with feeling
Of pride. the following from the New
York World, On the eve of the cleo
ton:
"Of all the candidates for any office
in any State the man who has done
most to raise the political, moral and
intellectual level of the campaign is
Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey.
Like Lincoln. Mr.. Wilson has put
the thoughts of a statesman into
simple, hOmely, nervous speech,
touched with humor, convincing in
earnestness. At a time when un-
bridled speech is sadly common he
has been constant in courtesy. He
has not shuffied. He has otevaded
any issue.
"Not often in recent years has any
American State had an opportunity
to elect as Governor a man of such
capacity and fitness. For New Jersey
not to secure Woodrow Wilson's SER
vices would not be a New Jersey mis-
fortune merely; it would be National
misfortune"

Comp Ion of Next Senate.
Baltimore Evening Sun,

Baltimore Evening Sun.
1t now appears that the next
United States Senate will have a Re-
publican majority of 10 votes. Six
of those 10, and probably more,
will be insurgents committed to the
doctrine Of piecemeal revision OF the
tariff. Their votes, added to the
solid Democratic vote, can carry any
measure that comes before the Sen
ate. In these circumstances it is
quite probable that we shall shortly
learn Just what insurgency is. We
shall find out whether it is thing OF
principle or OF policy. We shall find
out wheeler the men who have made
brave professions, are ready to live up
to those professions. And, inasmuch
as the solid Democratic vote will be
required to pass any tariff legislation
that may be proposed, we may also
learn a thing or two about some OF
the members of that party. A pro-
lection Democrat is not pleasing
sight. Altogether the revelations of
the opening session of the new Con-
gress ought it be interesting.

waste Paper ana the Like Afouuo
Loosely.
1t appears that Henderson is not
alone in wrestling with the waste
paper problem. The New Bern Jour
nal recentlv published the following
editorial which will be timely reading
here. 1t is a good thing and the
GOLD LEAF passes it along with the
admonition that all "to whom it NAV
concern" read, heed and act accord
ingly:
A windy day like yesterday reveals
to every eye. the neglect OF those
who fail to be ORDERLY themselves,
and so intrude their disorder upon
their neighbors and the-public gener-
ally.
Yesterdays disorder was the guam
titles OF paper that blew up and
down and around all the streets that
provoked the dust and every light
substance to join the mad flights OF
the paper, and add to the personal
annoyance OF every one upon the
street. 1t was an unpleasant sight.
this flying paper and rubbish, that
"got on the nerves" OF every
Woman's Club woman, and made
every person favoring municipal
cleanliness shudder in dismay.
And who is TO blame? No one
especially, but every one, generally,
for without the individual careless
ness and negligence OF storekeepers
and householders, there would be no
paper lying about. waiting for a
windy day to send 1t flying into the
streets and along the sidewalks. 1t
is not the right thing to do to throw
paper in large or small quantities
over the fence into the next door lot,
to throw it loosely into any alley
way, or to place it in an uncovered
receptacle upon the street. A windy
day PLAYS havoc with paper placed
in any of the above ways, and reveals
streets strewn with paper, that shows
only too clearly how careless the
community is, for without the first
indifference, the improper disposal OF
the paper, there would be no expos
ure, that the first windy.sday brings
forth.
Municipal cleanliness is not gained
through the official clean up and the
refuse cart. There can be no clean
city without first the individual who
keeps his own premises clean, for
; street and sidewalk rubbish comes
from the individual who attempts to
make his neighbor bear the burden ol
his own disorder. When each citizen
serves faithfully to create no paper
waste, not even an envelope or wrap.
per to be thrown on the streets after
leaving the post Office, then the
streets will clean be OF paper, and
quite likely OF all rubbish.

In Machine of Own Make Whining
ton Men Fly.

Wilmington, Nov. 14.-Several sue
cessful flights were made along the
beach at Shell Island, near Wrights-
vile, beach, this afternoon in an aero
plane constructed by F. II. Gou-
verneur and H. M. Chase, we'll known
business men Of this city. Mr. Chase
was the aviator and although it was
his first attempt he had reason to be
highly gratitied with his success. The
test was made along the beach at
low tide.
Messrs. Gouverneur and Chase have
been at work on the machine for the
past six months, but today marked
the first attempt to fly since it's COM
pletion. 1t is driven by 40-horse-
power engine, and is said to be con-
structed OF a series of planes. This
is said to have been the first real
fight in the state since the tests
made by the Wright. brothers at
Kitty Hawk in 1907.
