forget wrongs, and remember benefits
to love the truth, to be sincere, to
utter honest words, to love liberty, to
wage relentless war against slavery in
all forms, to love wife and child and
friend, to make Il happy home, to love
the beautiful in art, in nature, to cult
vate the mind, to be familiar with
the mighty thought that genius has
expressed in noble deeds of all the
world, to cultivate courage and cheer
fulness, to make others happy, to fill
the life with the splendor of gener-
Gus acts, the warmth of generous
words, to discard error, to destroy
prejudice, to receive the new truths
with gladness, to cultivate hope, to see
the calm beyond the storm, the dawn
beyond the night, to do the best that
can be done and then to be resigned
this is the religion of reason, the
creed of science. This satisfies the

STAY IN THE COUNTRY.

Along about this season, rs legu-
larly as the season comes around.
there are requests for houses by peo
pie who live in the country, and want
to move to town. In almost every
instance these people have no means
of making a living except by days
work" which means, as a rule, that
the wife and mother will attempt TO
make her living by taking in wash
ing, while the husband spends most of
his time pressing brick" or loafing
around the stove in some store. These
folks have an idea that work is al
ways to be had in town for the ask
ing, just as hundreds of young men
and women think who leave their
homes for the cities. Surely, they
think, that where so many live to-
gether, there must be a great deal of
work needed all the time, and they
are correct IN so thinking, but they
forget, or do not know, that there arc
not enough jobs for all-not half
enough to go around, and that the
cities and the small towns as well,
have large numbers of idle people
who are needy When sickness or
misfortune overtakes these poor peo-
pie who have no money, work or cred
it, they, Of necessity, become public
charges upon the charity of the peo-
pie. And SO, we think it well, to advise
this class of people not to move TO
town unless they have good pros
poets for living. Living is higher in
town than in the country. Coal, house
rent, water rents and town taxes,
must be provided and paid for. In
the country these are all cheap if not
absolutely free. Nobody wants wall
built around this town to shut people
out who wish to make their homes
here, but a note of warning is here
sounded, we have sounded many
times before. If yau have house
over the heads of your wife and chill
dren in the country, think a long time
before deciding to move to town, and
then decide to stay where you are

THE W. C. T. U. ENDORSEMENTS

The article in the last issue of this
paper, under the caption, elias the w.
c. T. U. Gone Into Politics?" has
created some excitement down about
Graham where the disturbing resolu-
ton of endorsement of Hon. j. Pow
ell Royal, originated. The article
appearing in the last issue of this pa
per was communication, though. as
1t appeared, was reasonably and natu-
rally attributed to this Office. 1t "pot
by" the editor, who knew nothing of it
until 1T appeared in type and in print.
Immediately upon the appearance of
the Graham endorsement" which
was sent us as paid advertisement.
there was protest upon the part of
the ladies of the w. C. Il. u. here. that
the action of the Graham meeting was
not intended in any sense as an en-
dorsement of Mr. Royals candidacy.
but only an expression of confidence
and particularly of appreciation of
the stand he took in Richmond on the
enabling act, and no thought or sus-
picion, said these ladies, was ever en-
tertained that the resolution would be
published and used as political doc
ument.
Coming at the time it did, and under
the circumstances the conclusion that
1t was intended as an endorsement of
MIR. Royals candidacy, was quite nat
ural. Mr.. Royal certainly took that
view of the matter, else he would not
have felt at liberty to use it in his
campaign.
The ladies at Graham and in Tazc-
well disclaim in toto that they "meant
anything political" whatever, and this
disclaimer must be accepted.
However, while we are at it, as we
see it, the Anti-Saloon league. the w.
&. Y. u. and the Equal Suffrage
League are powerful political organ
izations and the candidates for public
office who go up against these infu-
ences hereafter, certainly in a ma
Jorlty of the States, will find out so
to their undoing. What's the use
saying, 1--WE are not in politics."
when, IN every campaign thoy line
up on one side and urge everybody
else to do the same? In this these or
CARNATIONS are exactly right, and we
fail to see why they should be so sly
OF any move which has political
aspect.

tried and hastily shot by the German
authorities under Sauberzweig, Bis
sing and Lacken. When American
newspapers such as the San Francisco
Chronicle, and the State of Columbia,
S. c., speak of Miss Cavell as "spy"
they are untterly mistaken, and to
parallel the Cavell murder one must
go back to Alice Lisle, beheaded by
order of James III on September 9,
1886, for harboring two refugees from
Monmouth's defeated army Mrs.
Surratt was hanged in Washington
because she had given shelter TO and
had known of the conspiracy which
resulted in killing Lincoln, yet Rhodes
and other historians unite in deploring
her eXecution.) The French in the last
year have executed two or more wo-
men, confessed spies and paid for
their spying, but Edith Cavell had no
part in any murderous conspiracy.
German newspapers may heap con-
tempt on English scant" and revile
Brand Whitlock, but they will be ex-
planning Edith CavelPs death just as
long as they have to uphold the pres
ent system of German Governments.

tine, has said: "'rhe murderer has

r. p. Hutton, one of the state sup
erintendcnts for Anti-Saloon league
says that the fight for national pro-
hibition must he made in the west.
"Itll take six states" he says, "to rat
ify the dry amendment" and adds:
Comet third of the Senator's are located
west of Emporia, Kansas. Six million
of people is the population. These
people will control half of the sena-
tors that we need TO submit the amend
ment. Forty-four senator's, or prac-
tically half of the senate, are west of
the Mississippi river, and 100000
people will control them. The States
west of the Mississippi and those east
of the Mississippi and south of the
Ohio and Potomac rivers have Ga SEN
ators, exactly two-thirds of the SEN
ate or the required number. If these
states furnish dry senators, hc
amendment can be SUBMITTED within
the next five years" The anti-prohi-
bitionists are bitter in denouncing this
attitude of the Anti-Soloon league as
unfair and un-American. "What is
the Justice" they ask, Sin allowing
Nevada with 10000 population an
equal vote on the amendment with
New York, which has 5000 ,0G0 popu-
lation?" "And where" they add.
docs temperance come in when you
allow 10000 people to force down the
troats of 100000 an unpopular law
such rs national prohibition law is
certain to beg" The "wets" also point
out that even if it is true that $1,000
600 people now live in dry territory, as
the Anti-Saloon league claims, large
proportion of these are "wet as the
vote showed, and that dry territory
is name only. In substantiation of
this, they quote one of the leading
prohibition advocates of Georgia, T.
/ b. Fielder, who said recently: "Not-
outstanding the fact that Georgia
has Il prohibition law that is suppos-
ed to prohibit the sale of beer and
whiskey, the sale of these beverages
in this state is worth at conserva-
tive estimate not les than five million
dollars annually to the whiskey and
beer interests. These facts, the
vets declare, are bound to make the
proposed amendment unpopular and
will prevent its submission. The
"drys," however, are as certain that
the coming congress vii submit the
amendment and warn their follow
ers that if it is not done within the
next five years it will never be sub
mitted.

Girls Who Giggle.

DR.. Rachel Yarros, Of Hull House.
warns young men to beware of girls
who giggle, and DR.. Yarros has stud
led the question some. We are not adj
vlsed as to why DIR. Yarros has seen
Int to shout the warning. The fact is.
this is not the age of the giggling
girls. e
The girls if today know that gig
ling denotes insincerity and the young
man of today has too many serious
things on his mind to waste time on
the things that are not sincere. The
girl of the present is rather deliber-
ate herself as compared with the girl
of back yonder. The girls in the best
society never giggles, and the girl who
is facing the problem of looking out
for herself has no time for the indul-
gence.
The designing woman or girl NAV
be heartless-she may be expert in
playing the game of deception to
accomplish her ends, but she doesn't
giggle. The girl who giggles wears
her nature on her sleeve. DIR. Yarros
is wasting his time in ringing alarm
bells for either sex. If there ever was
time in the hisotry of men and wo-
men when they were serious it is at
the present.-Times Dispatch.

EDITH CAVELL AND THE GREAT
WEEKLY PAPERS.

1t is Il significant fact that nearly
all the great dailies and such weaklies
as The Independent, Golfers, Satur-
day Evening Post and others of high
standing, have expressed unqualified
denunciation of the brutal murder of
Edith Cavell. A strong editorial from
Golfers is published i'll another col
umn OF this paper. We regret that
the weekly Mcdowell Recorder can
not be included in the list of the great
weeklies. Our contemporary calls all
this rot" and goes into rapturous
praise Of the foreign peoples in that
section, many of whom are readers
and supporters of the Recorder, and
some of them, no doubt, belong to the
hyphenated class, and inimical to the
Wilson administration, as is also the
Recorder.

THOSE WHO ARE ALWAYS IN
OUR HEARTS"

There is never any real parting be-
tween those who love-no forgetting
of people who are always in our
hearts," So says the bcwitching little
heroin of Mrs. L. Nelson Strother's
French romance, "Eve Dorrc," and
her words are true. There are, indeed,
some names that are ever cchoing in
our thoughts. We repeat them over
and over, like prayers; memories they
embody are continually with us, like
the strings of sacred heads the good
Catholics carry ever about them. Such
names are like doves-ever homing,
ever mourning absence with swcetly
plaintive note. We break, by separa-
ton, our daily intercourse with these
dear ones, but absence makes no diff
erence i'll our sense of intimate COM
partnership, affects no change in our
love; the only difference felt is lack
CT happiness, for the heart can never
be quite content out of sight of their
dear faces, out of sound of their low
laughter.
Sometimes their names spring often
to our lips, some times they are never
spoken. Friends speak lightly of them
In our presence and wonder carelessiy
how they fare, but our hearls keep
whispering their last words over ana
over, as bees murmur in the heart OF
the rose. Their faces are fadeless TO
us, and their sudden coming, If they
return can never Startle, because we
are always expecting them, always
awaiting them with eager outstetcn-
ed hands; always lighting candle of
loving remembrance to welcome them
and setting in the high window of our
lives that It's radiance may shine afar
an assurance of our fidelity.
Consciously or unconsciously, these
loved ones influence all the activities
OF our days. Many things we do be-
cause dairy association links happily
with our lives, but side by side with
these visible influences is the silent
leading OF those absent ones for whose
sympathy we await, whose approval
we strive to win, by who's standards
we measure ourselves, and, as we at
tam or fall below them, we feel we
have won or lost.
Absence is the great effacer of all
lesser emotions. The average faces
we seldom see fade softly out of the
memories as daguerreotypes disappear
owly but surely with the lapse of
Lars. Voices long unheard are us
ually forgotten as chime of bells is
forgotten, when we pass beyond the
reach of their silvery echoes. Even
nate grows cold with absence. and we
forgive because we have forgotten
the wrong.
But intense love is a more vital
thing within our souls. Like the sacred
rehc beneath the altar that is carried
wherever the sacred rites of the church
are celebrated, SO, in the moving tenn
pie OF our hearts, We carry the sacred
emotions that most deeply affect our
lives. The breath of life that is with
IN us keeps these sacred relics of love
forever glowing with fond memoir
les and associations within the affairs
OF our hearts.-Ex.

BOOKER II. WASHINGTON.

The death of this distinguished and
useful colored man, it is TO exagger-
alton TO say, is Il public and national
loss, whose place it will be impossi-
BILE to fill as he filled it. Gifted far
beyond and above the best of his
race, humble, conscientious, indus
trious and ambitious, he had almost
unlimited influence with his own peo-
pie, and the ear and respect and con-
iidence of the white people. His death
in almost the prime of life, leaves a
vacancy and Il gap which may not be
filled. He needs no eulogy, neither
monument of granite or marble. He
erected in Tuskegec Institute one
more lasting than either, and thous-
ands Of regenerated negroes will sing
his praises throughout the ages to
come.
