| the upbuilding of character.
The day of the moving picture
show is with us and with us to
stay until better and equally as
cheap form of amusement comes
to take it's place. And the NOV.
ing picture show. as a rule is a
good thing and affords a vast deal
Of pleasure at a small cost.
But
When shows like "The James
Boys in Missouri" and numerous
others of similar and worse
character are thrown upon the
screen, right then and there is
when the public should protest
and should forbid young boys
from seeing them. Only harm can
come from such pictures no
good is in them whether on the
stage or in moving pictures. The
moving pictures are patronize1
more largely by young lads than
are the theatres, but such shows
are out Of place anywhere.
Some cities exercise censor

"James Boys" and the like to be
presented. This is a matter for

GUARDING THE MORALS OF

there is one being more than
another that should be carefully
guarded it is the young child
more especially the young boy
who has reached an age when it
is considered safe for him to go

The impressions that are made
on a child's mind frequently go

future character. The work. Of
God exhorts all, even grown peo-

of evil. If grown people should
shun it, how much more so should

1t looks to us as if the political
situation in this State remains
unchanged. If we could accept
the statements of number OF
partisan sheets who make the
changes so numerous and 50
startling we would have to con-
clude that the people Of this State
are regular jumping jacks-verit-
able political acrc5ats. If we
could believe all they print we
would be thrown in a perfect
stupor Of establishment. But we
prefer to believe that our people
are not made of such soft stuff.
and once they have reached con-
illusions they are not to be driv-
en- about from pillar to post in
search Of a political haven.
These sensational publications
accomplish no good Let us not
forget what Lincoln said about
the people, and when we remem-
Der this wise saying we will not

TIKI STATE WITHOUT A
VETO.

In al the union there is but
one State that does not give 10
its governor the power of veto,
and that State is North Carolina,
Dne Of The "original thirteen.
In that State there is no going
behind the enacted will of the
two bodies that make up the leg
islature. Whatever comes to the
governors desk stamped with the
approval of the two houses must
be accepted as law. The COVER
nor may suggest and advise, but
that is as far as he may 90. No
written word or withheld sigma
ture Of his may keep legislative
enactment from becoming a part
of the states statutes.
This leaves the North Carolina
executive shorn of his greatest
power; but it also relieves him Of
much responsibility. If bad laws
are the fruit of a legislative SEES
sion he runs no risk Of losing pop
ularity by multiplying them. He
does not have to lie awake o.
nights thinking up reasons for a
veto Of the one hand or justifi-
cation for it on the other. He
takes . lesson from the first chap
ter Of Genesis in shifting the
blame, and with his index finger
levelled at the legislature. he says
to the people: "They did it, I
am blameless.
North Carolina seems to have
gotten on all these years very
well without a governors vetoing
power. yet to the other states it
has seemed a wise protection to
what might be called wildcate leg
islation. A veto can always be
set aside by the right proportion
of Legislative votes, so if a law is
very wise and desirable it can be
passed over the veto. If, on the !
other hand. it Is erratic and has
been enacted in the heat Of pas
sion or excitement. the veto is the |

of jenkins ear. 1t came about in the
following way: In the year 1871 an
English merchant vessel was board
ed by a Spanish guardship,. and the
captain, one Robert Jenkins, was most
cruelty used, one Of his ears being torn
off in the scrimmage. Obtaining no
redress by appealing to his govern
ment, he appeared before parliament
in 1913, when the convention of the
Pardo was so excitedly discussed that
war followed. Jenkins story was yeri-

A tendency for overdressing was al
ways one of Dickens characteristics.
"a very spruce man." is the descrip-
ton given of The famous novelist by
one writer. HE brushed his coat
frequently, changed his collars sew
eral times in a day and combed his
hair 100 times in a day"
A photograph Of Dickens taken in

a broad velvet collar, a waistcoat made
Of some furry stuff and trousers Of a
huge check. Percy Fitzgerald says the
French painters remark. that Dickens
was more like one of the old Dutch
admirals we see in the picture galleries
than a mar of letters conveys an ad
mirably true idea to his friends.
