Eyes Of All Nations

America and Germany
are the greatest eyeglass
a n d spectacle-wearing
nations of the world.
Five Americans wear
to one of any 9TH
er nation. Deplorable,
were it not a fact that
blindness in America has
decreased over 200 per
cent since the advent of
glasses, while in every
other country Of the
globe there is an actual
increase.
Here we have at once a
powerful argument in ia
vor of glasses and glass
wearing. But your eyes
need competent, careful,
p~ainstaking attention if
they need any.

PRAYER

So strong is my desire; so great my
need;
So vast the interests pending, as I
plead;
So little do I know the hidden deep
And outmost reach of my necessities.
So subtle and so limitless. So steep
The ascent to springs unfailing; and
That hold the spirit earthward are
so strong,
So all-unsearchable the sympathies
That crowd and iostle in unnum-
bered throng.
What shall ask for, as I bend the
knee?
Thy word of grace has promised full
supply.
What shall say for every clamoring
want,
Or deeply felt, or less than under,
stood?
How shall ! ask the Infinite to grant
That which / crave, yet know NOT
whether good
Or ill it may be? how the Gun refuse
That seems SO bitter, but may prove
The balm of healing? Nay, dare not
o Life! O OfLove! o Light! Infnity.
I pray, plead, give, give thyself to
me,
And what thou wilt beside. Thou sum
of bliss
In whom all fullness dwells, all power,
all peace,
To endless blessing thou the open
door;
Give me thyself, I ask, nor wish for
more.

4 HINT ON DIVING

Good height is essential in making
the jack-knives, that the movements
in folding and opening may be delibc-
rate and unhurried. AS the name in
dicates one follows in performing them
the action of a pocket-knife being
opened and closed. The diver rises in
the air, bends from the waist until his
hands and feet touch, then, after hold
ing the position for an instant, snaps
his legs up and enters in the position
prescribed for the plain front dive,
but at slightly more vertical angle.
Care should be taken not to bring
up the knees in bending the body, for
the tendency to do so is strong and the
fault is a general one.--AIarch Out

Admiral Fletchef'S Opinion.

Admiral Fletcher is considered the
authority in this country as to the
status of the American Navy COM
pared with the navies of the first
class powers of the world. He, ad-
miral Fletcher, stated before the
Naval Committee last year in an
swerlng the question: admiral,
if we were at war with Germany
could our navy successfully resist
the Navy Of Germany" He re-
piled: "Why certainly" Mind you,
this comparison was based on the
status of the nayies before the Eu.
ropean War. Captain Winterhaul.
er naval expert called by Secretary
Daniels shared the views of Admira
Fletcher. Now, when you ask {
shouter of preparedness" what he
bases his authority on that the Uui
ted States is not second in the ma
vies of the world, he says: "Oh
everybody knows that we are be
hind Germany in naval strength
The question is, who is. every
body?" The ignorant clamorer!
never specify. They are too bus,
taking things for granted.

Ignorance!

We can not believe that the senti-
ment Of the bustling burg of
Roanoke Rapids finds it's expression
the hollowheaded editor of the
Roanoke Rapids Herald. If this
country was as ignorant as this self
assumed expresser of sentiment, it
would need that $500, 100000 spent
in grammer schools. We venture
the assertion that out Of the total
circulation Of this Ignat's paper
that ninety-nine per cent are more
competent to adjudge a community VS.
sentiment than he. Any thinking
man in this county after reading
this squirt's editorial last week on
Preparedness" or rather, h is
sneering at his own representatives,
will be Inundated to know that the
state asylum is not doing its duty,
and that Halifax, of all the counties
Of the State, should be allotted the
harboring on this half-witted crank.
Old fools are to be pitied; young
fools should be given a chauce, but
for preserve fools, there is little
hope.

Long Distance Interviewers

And it fell the duty of Yankee
to come down into the
Second Congressional District and
find the sentiment of the folks
back home" Why spend this extra
money to come all the way to North
Carolina for their news stories about
sentiment on preparedness" Any
newspaper which has manifested
that recklessness of handling facts
and Juggling of truths that the New
York Herald had need not be on the
spot for the backbone of their fic-
ton. Their editors need never leave
their swagger dens on sky-scraper
row for interviews so long as verac.
ity is such a stranger to them. They
can hatch up all the interviews
they need to deceive the people
right there on the spot.
