The Hymns My Mother Used to Sing.

Way back in old New England in the days
of long ago
My memory often wanders as the seasons
come and go;
But the fondest recollections that my medita
tons brings
Are the echoes OF the old songs that mother
used to- sing.
We often sat together around the hearth at
night
And mother told US stories of a land that's
fair and bright;
Then '.Rock of Ages Cleft for Me- would
echo on the air,
And we would all join in and sing "There'll
Be No Parting There
There's lots of music in them as we sang
them long ago,
When m Jther'S voice was clear and sweet,
her accent soft and low;
And when hear those hymns today my spirit
scars on high,
'To Cansan's Fair and Happy Land Where
MY Possessions Lie.''
They seem to tell story of happy childhood
days
When roses strew our pathway in a dozen
different ways;
l like to hear them ringing, my memory often
stands
For ''Green,and's Icy Mountains and elm
dia's Coral Strand.''
There were not many singing books, the meet
ing-hOuSe was SMALL
The congregation was not large, it used to
hold US all.
We never had an instrument, no organ built
for show;
We only sang to ''Praise the Lord, From
Whom All Blessings Flow
That's why | love the good old hymns my
mother used to sing;
They bring back recolleCtionS that nothing
else can bring,
While Jesus, Lover Of MY SOUL" will al
ways make me sigh
Till 81 Can Read My Title Clear To Man
sions in the Sky"
And when we leave this vale of tears for
fairer lands on high
We hope to meet in heaven above where
pleasures never die;
We will have an angel chorus that will make
the heavens ring,
And use the Old-time music that my mother
used to sing

CHAUTAUQUA TENT BLOWN
DOWN

Just as the crowd were going to
the big Chautauoua tent Thursday
afternoon, and after the children
who were in the play by the Junior
ChautauQua had just arrived, the
tent was blown down. A storm COM
ing from the southwest rose very sud-
denly, the rain poured in torrents,
for about ten minutes peals of thun-
der were frequent, and all this was
accompanied by strong wind that
broke the main pole of the tent and
brought the great canvas fiat on the
ground. The frightened children got
out at the sides, which were down
before the tent fell. Mo one was
hurt, but the little folks were badly
frightened and drenched.
The exercises of the last day were
held in the auditorium.

HIS OLD FATHER SATISFIED.

Twenty years ago a discouraged
young doctor in one of our large
cities was visited once by his old
father. who came up from the rural
district to look after his boy.
We'll, son" he said, how are you
getting along?" ,
I'm not getting along at all, was
the disheartened answer. I'm not
doing a thing"
The old mans countenance fell,
but he spoke of courage and patience
and perseverance. Later in the day
he went with his son to the Free
Dispensary, where the young doctor
had an unsalaried position, and
where he spent an hour or more
every day.
The father sat by, a silent but in
tensely interested spectator, while
twenty-five poor unfortunates re-
ceived help. The doctor forgot his
visitor as he bent his skilled ener-
eies to his task; but hardly had the
door closed on the last patient, when
the old man burst forth:
Il thought you told me that you
were not doing anything! Why. if
I had helped twenty-five people in
a month as much as you have in
one morning, I would thank God
that my life counted for something.
There isn't any money In 1t,
though" explained the son some
what abashed.
Money the old man shouted,
still scornfully, Money! What is
money in comparison with being of
use to your fellow men? Never
mind about money; you 60 right
along at this work every day. Ill
90 back to the farm and gladly earn
money enough to support you as
long as l live-yes, and sleep sound
every night with the thought that I
have helped you to help your fellow
men. "-Ex.

PERSONALITIES.

Do all the good you can and make
no fuss about it.
Between saying and doing there
is a great distance.
Every person in the world is
natural born critic.
The absence of temptation is the
absence of virtue.
The smile that won't come off is
liable to become tiresome.
1t is so easy to tell the truth that
most people want to lie.
You cannot help your battling
averages by hitting highballs.
A cheerful liar is more entertain
ing than a gloomy truth-teller.
He who does what he can, may
soon be able to do what he would.
If a swelled head hurt as much
as a sore thumb, you would hear
many groans.
Every man thinks he suffers in
silence, but he bowls about it just
the same.
A man forgets his good luck next
day, but remembers his bad luck
until next week.
Do not expect others to help you
until you show desire to help your
self.
The fellow who passes a scandal
along is as bad as the one who start
ed it.
The three speediest things that
can't fly in the air are the kangaroo,
the ostrich and the dollar.
The man who has to hustle, has
little time to sympathize with the
fellow with the hookworm disease.
The trouble with some men who
reach the top is that they 60 right
on over and down the other side.
Abe Martin says: After some
fellers git UP in tn morning, the
hardest part of their days work is
done"
The early bird catches the worm.
But then, again, there is another
point of view. See what the worm
gets for being up early.

ACTION OF CHAIRMAN BOREN
ETC.

HIGH Point citizens went before
Chairman Borel of the county Com
missioners last week and asked that
the $4,000 due this end OF the
county for good roads be used on
the brownsville and Archdale roads
instead of the Archdale road alone
hut il seems that Mr.. Boren is IN
clined to spend it like he had first
planned regardless of what High
Point wants; furthermore 1t seems
that the $4,000 bird escaped from
the cage while the matter was beng
aired and the mooted question now
is what has become of the S2O,UOO
which appears to be only a myth.
Secondly that good road between
High Point and the Gate City so
elowinly described by widths and
lengths and general efficiency awhile
back by Chairman Boren seems to
have melted away also, although
il was to be built, work to begin In
the early summer months. Yet
soon the autumnal breezes will be-
gin to whistle up and down and
across the dreadful holes and the
backs of the automobiles, wagonists
and buggyists will continue to ache
from the bad jolts. caused by the
rnts and holes.
Why, oh why. should High Point
be treated like red headed step
child by Greensboro?
Surely we are entitled to some
consideration, yea verify.
IF others H the Board are OF the
same opinion as Mr.: Boren now IN
reeard to these matters why, then
they are not serving the county
fairly as their oath of office demands.
Of course our townsman Mr.. w.
C. Jones of the Board is with us but
he is only one among five:
Then the rumblings of discord is
heard in regard to Greensboro be-
cause High Point feels like she isn't
getting a square deal, while the Gate
City is Getting more than her share,
and the cry on to Winston is heard
on every hand. A good road is now
in use between High Point and the
Tobacco town and the people feel
kindly towards each other too, and
if something isn't done quick per
haps Greensboro will lose a whole
lots in many ways, all on account
of the action referred to above.
Said a well known citizen the
other day I'm not going to Green's
boro only when am compelled so
to do" And this shows the feeling
among at least some of the people
here.

OLD Selfish.

Old Man Selfish dropped into this
office the other day to ask us to ex-
tend his subscription bill for sixty
days. The following conversation
ensued:
Editor: What are you doing in
town today, Mr.. Selfish?
o. S: Come in to buy some stuff
for the old lady, but after got
some tobaccy and played a few
games of pool with the boys and
ordered box of mail-order cigars,
I didn't have no money left. VIM
min folks is always wantin' some
thing foolish anyway.
Ed: How was your crop?
O. S.: Finel Biggest I ever had.
The missus wanted me to buy some
newfangled doings for the kitchen
with some of the money-said they
would save her a good many steps,
but there's piece of land / guess
I'll buy instead.
Ed Thought you had all the land
you wanted?
~. D. well, uOA Z ACOu SAAAS POI
eel, specially, but l reckon the old
lady can get along well enough for
another year or two.
Ed: I suppose you're going to the
fair?
o. S.: You bet. Wouldn't miss it.
My wife's exhibiting some fruits and
needlework, and she wanted to 90
down and see the prizes awarded
but told her she'd better stay at
home with the kids this year.
Ed: Did you get that new water
works plant installed in your house
this year?
@. S.: No. That was another OF
my wife's ideas. Ireckon we don't
actually need it. The Mrs. is purity
strong, and she's plenty able to tote
water for a few more years.
Ed: Going home tonight?
o. S.: Nope. Going to stay around
and see the picture show. | want
to look at Jed Beams team too
think I'll buy it, and a new gun

SUFFRAGE OOWNED
i; A!s3W JERSEY
BY 10000
Every County In the State Against
Votes for Women
2 10 | IN WILSON'S PRECINCT
Leaders Announce They Will Begin
New Campaign for Fight in
Legislature.

Jersey City, N. j, Oct 19.-New
Jersey registered at the polls today
an emphatic no" to woman's appeal
for the ballot. Indications were short
ly after midnight that the white and
yellow banners of votes for women
had huttered down to defeat in each
of the states twenty-one counties and
that the majority against adoption OF
the constitutional amendment to en-
franchise women was between So
000 and 10000.
Undaunted by the overwhelming
tide against them, leaders of the suf-
frage cause announced tonight that
they would start tomorrow with new
suffrage plans, intent upon pledging
candidates for the legislature to per
NIT them to vote next spring for
presidential electors.
They have two weeks in which to
make their most effective campaign.
Candidates for the legislature have
been nominated by both big parties
and will come before the voters for
election November @
President Wilson's recent announc-
ment that he would vote for suffrage,
In the opinion of suffrage leaders
converted thousands to their cause.
His stand, however, and the vigor-
Gus campaign waged by the women
to the last minutes, failed to prevent
a heavy vote against the adoption OF
tho amendment.
In his own voting precinct. the sew
enth district of Princeton borough,
the vote was more than two to one
against the amendment.
Unofficial returns from nearly two
thirds of the districts in the state
were in the hands of the suffrage
workers, about midnight, They show
ed that in 1922 districts out of 1891
in the state the vote had been SS,275
for the amendment and 124,119
against it, majority of 35,S44
against suffrage.
Suffrage lost in every big city in
the state and in nearly every town.
Where it did win, the majority was
small.

MUNICIPAL COURT HEARING
William Daley Of North Bennington
Being Tried for Assault.

Shortly after 10 o'clock this fore
noon the jury was completed in the
case of state VS.. William Daley of
North Bennington and the hearing
was begun before Municipal Judge Il.
II. Holden. The case involves an al
legged assault committed by Daley
and two other young men upon Carl
Danforth, the night man at the North
Bennington car barn of the Hoosac
Valley division of the Berkshire
Street Railway system on the even
ing of August 80. One of the young
men implicated recently appeared be-
fore the court, pleaded guilty and
paid fine and 1t is understood that
the third had no active part in the af
fair and is being held as a material
witness.
Considerable interest attaches to
the case, particularly in North Ben
nington where all of the parties in
volyed reside and because of the fact
that most of the witnesses are from
that village. Nearly dozen wit
nesse5 for the state were sworn in
with the opening of the hearing this
morning. Superintendent George Il.
Green of the division and number
of the railway company's employees
are in attendance upon the hearing.
States Attorney Frank c. Archi-
bald Of Manchester is appearing for
the prosecution and Daley is repre-
sented by the firm of Sheldon & Mat
hers.
The jury is composed of l.. j. Ed
dington, b. a. Quinlan, Leslie a. Car
rier, Cornelius NJ. Lambert, Amyel
Baker. l.. f. Abbott Roy NJ. Paddock,
Fred f. Tiff, Broun9on Mattison,
Grant l.. Harbour, c. Fremont Barnes
and G.. Wayne Adams.
