There was 10 light In the Earth until

established ornament. Doubtless
the light had to do in a natural way
with this. The ornament was COM
pleted with the Second Day.
In the Third Day, or Epoch. earth
quakes took plnce. mountains were
thrown up, and the waters gathered
into seas. draining Of a land surface.
Forthwith vegetation sprang up. The
account does not say that God made
grasses. trees. ETC.. but that under d.
vine command the earth brought forth
these various kinds. Nothing in the
Genesis account interferes with an ev.
dictionary theory as respects vegeta'

Good Weather for Farmers.
State Dispatch.


This unusually cold weather with
the temperature raging as low as Ze-
TO is unusually fine for the farmer,
not at the present time, but favors the
raising of good crops next summer.
1t is an old saying that much cold
and snow especially is a favorable
forecast for a good wheat yield. This
is backed up by the fact that cold
freezes destroy the insects and their
eggs, and that the SHOWS as they
melt send down nitrogen to the green
forage crops. Winter might be class
ed as the great chemical laboratory
of nature which is working in full
force when the thermometer is down
to zero. This winter, as Is generally
conceded, is one OF the coolest for
years, indicates very favorable the
harvesting of fine crops next autumn.

Statesville Landmark
The successful effort TO prevent
Mr.. Coon concluding his address vas
leal, We are informed. by County Su-
periatendents. Those superintendents
met afterward and endorsed State
superintendent Joyner. That part was
all right, for Mr.. Joyner Is a spien-
did man and has wrought well for
the schools. An attempt in n meet
ing of city school superintendent to
endorse the States educational policy
met with so much opposition that II
was dropped. Here the politics Of the
situation is made clear. Many OF the
County Superintendent owe their
job TO politics rather than merit.
Realizing that, they felt called on TO
resent any criticism Of the States ed
ucational policy. What is or is not
best for the States welfare educa-
tionally is beside the question with
some of them-not all OF them, we
are sure. But the party is response
BILE for the school system and the sys-
tenn must not be criticised. II the
States educational policy isn't strong
enough to stand criticism, then 1t is
in bad shape; and we must believe
that Superintendent Joyner is big
enough and broad enough to welcome
criticism. The city superintendent,
not so much controlled by politics,
had the nerve to decline to endorse
the States educational system be-
cause they claim the privilege to do
their own thinking.
