DELEGATES VOTE TO WORK
FOR UPLIFT OF NEGRO RACE

Chicago, July showed by the
speeches of men prominent in church
and business life of the south, three
hundred southern men and women
delegates to the Worlds Christian En-
deavor convention in session here to-
day, voted to work for the uplife of
inc negro race.
Out of this idea is to grow the south
ern extension committee of the Chris
tan Endeavor, which the Rev. Ira
Landrith, of Nashville, Tenn, calls the
beginning of the Observation-Disclosures!
Union of the Colored People.
I'VE are going to take the Christian
Endeavor into the negro churches"
said DR.. Landrith, Organize new So
cieties and help millions of blacks to
enlightenment. God has placed at
our door the greatest opportunity for
christian work that eVer came to any
missionaries anywhere"
Until the men rise up and say: Il
will not KILL" nations will war with
one another, according to Daniel A.
Polling, citizenship superintendent of
the United Society of the Christian
Endeavor. He declared that neither
arbitration treaties nor neutrality
agreements will bring everlasting and
universal peace.
'"The message of the Christian En-
deavor is patriotic" said Mr.. Polling.
''The patriotism of Christian Endeavor
practical and addresses itself to the
foes of the state.
'These foes are intemperance and
war. Against them, the young peo-
pies movement hurls the flower of
the world, the youth of the kingdom.
Christian Endeavor can and will en-
roll millions of young people from all
sects, colors and nationalities in the
a union which was the vision of
President Clark. These millions will
proclaim the fulfllment of the Sixth
commandment; these will declare: I
will not KILL"

THE coUNTY's HIRED HAND.

The new county agriculturist is en-
titled to the cooperation of the public
and also to a degree of tolerance and
patience on the part of the people
among whom he is to work. 1t is we'll
to remember that these men are n an
environment which is new to them.
They must get acquainted with their
field and their folks before they can
do much work that counts. Give them
a chance to get their bearings before
asking them to tackle problems which
the community itself has failed to
solve after years Of thinking. The
county agriculturist doesn't know It
all-he usually knows enough to re
alize this, which is in his favor. Nor
can he do all the work to be done him
self. If the community is not ready
to work with him better not get him
let him go to some county where he
will have the cooperation Of the peo-
ple.. There is no need to be in a
hurry about criticisms either. They
will keep in perfect condition II care
fully stored away for a while. Give
the county's hired a a chance to
find himself, help him to find his real
work, and he will make good emphsti-
cally in nearly all cases.-Nationa!

Upton FINED FOR ASSAULTING
SOLICITOR SCHENCK; THE CASE,

Last week the Democrat carried an
item of news about F. 3. Upton as
saulting Solicitor Michael Schenck,
hence the following from the Green's
boro News in this connection will be
of interest:
OF. E.. Upton, who runs a marble
works at the corner of North Elm and
CASTOR streets, was arraigned before
Justice of the Peace w. C. England
yesterday on two charges, n of
secret assault with intent to kill on
Michael Schenck. of Hendersonville,
and the other of simple assault on
Mrs. Schenck. In the first he was
found guilty of simple assault and
fined $25 and the costs. In the latter
probable cause was found and he was
held to the next term of Guilford SUI
perior court for the trial Of criminal
cases, under a bond Of $50.
ssThe trouble for which Upton was
in the tolls yesterday occurred at the
Guilford battle-ground last Saturday.
Mr.. Schenck, the first witness called
in the hearing, testified that he was
here to attend the celebration and was
walking between his wife and little
boy when he heard his name called
and turned his head to one side just
in time to get a blow from Tfpton's
fist. He said that he was struck the
second time before he was able to see
Upton, having no chance whatever to
defend himself against the assault.
Mrs. Schenck had been pushed aside
by Tipton's arm. he said, and it was
upon this charge that the defendant
was held to Superior court for an as
sault upon a woman.
"Mr. Schenck said that Upton hold
a grudge against him for prosecutions
of several years ago. He said that
while mayor of Hendersonville he had
bound Upton over to court on a
charge of assault, and that later he
had prosecuted him in court for the
solicitor. Later Mr.. Schenck was
candidate for solicitor and Upton
fought him In the campaign, he said!
Ill feeling had existed between them
for several years. and he had heard OF
threats against him made by Upton.
He admitted that he feared the man
because of his powerful build and
reputation.
When Upton, a powerful man ply
took the stand, he swore that
be feared MI. Schenck, a man of very
