early in life and scalded himself serious
ly. The fact that when load of loose
apples is hauled over rough road, the
big apples all come to the top, has been
used to illustrate the method by which
people find their proper places in the
world by competition. 1t is useless for
even the rich mans son to try to hold a
position too big for him. But his place,
even in his fathers business, will ulti-
mately be TILED by some poor mans son
who has grown big enough for the posi-
ton.
Men and nations reap the reward of the
educational influences they allow them
selves to imbibe. If Americans take up
the war spirit of Europe, they will ulti-
mately have to fight to blow off their
pent-up energy. While a few movable,
long range guns might be a suitable ac-
compartment to the police force of our
cities, the surest way to keep men or
children out of mischief is to interest
them in something useful. If people
could be made to see duelng among ma
tons in the same light that they see the
same act between individuals, decided
step forward would be gained.
The war spirit is the greatest peril of
modern civilization. AS the Reforma-
ton broke the power of the Catholic
Pope and distributed his powers among
the people, so in many an American
hamlet is today to be found follower OF
Bernhard teaching the glory and bene-
fcence of war, and if this spirit is not
halted, America will ultimately find her
self where Germany is today. Who
wishes to pay such price for such hon.
ors?
Political freedom is equally important
with correct habits of thought. If the
churches would hold their natural posi-
ton in society they must guide their
thoughts as fully in harmony with ma
ture as the scientist, and leaving the
dead past and the unknown future act
intelligently in the living present.
One of the big jobs on the hands Of
the church today is to combine with the
American nation to teach the world that
nations should observe the same moral
standard in regard to murder and theft
that is considered binding upon individ-
uas.
Some may doubt the propriety of peace
talk at time of so much military activ-
ity. There is no doubt that capital in
vested in industrial development should
be protected, but its profits should also
be limited as much as exorbitant rates
of interest are prohibited. There is
tendency to divide profits among the
workmen engaged, instead of limiting
prices charged, thus making every bust
ness parasite subsisting upon society.
War among intelligent people is doubt-
full means of securing results. Could not
the money spent on the Civil War have
been expended in way to secure the
results without the expenditure of blood?

Lysistrata was the largest American
owned steam yacht and the largest YES
sci used for pleasure with the exception
of the royal yachts. She was built from
designs by the late George L. Watson by
Denny & Bros. at Dumbarton, Scotland,
in 1900. Her general dimensions are 3O1
feet over all, length, 285 feet water line,
80 feet II inches beam, ID feet depth and
10 feet draft. She had twin screws
which were driven by two sets of triple
expansion engines.
The Russian Red Cross have for some
time been purchasing large yachts. 1t
recently secured the Josephine owned by
the Widener estate and tried 10 buy
Howard Gould's Niagara and A. c. Bur-
RACES Aztec. Both of these yachts
were reported sold, but the deal fell
through.

"What has become of the old-time
Ohio Republican who used to show up
every four years as nominee for the
Presidency?" asks George Bailey of the
Houston Post. He is out on the stump
working for Charles Evans Hughes,
Gawge!
In his West Point address President
Wilson SAID: "Never since | was a
youngster have been afraid of a noisy
man. l have always feared quiet one. ="
This may explain why he cautioned the
Democratic party not to deal in personal
tiles in the coming campaign. Hughes
is silent man with an awful punch.
81 recently returned from Illinois,
said Representa- tive Thomas S. Williams,
a Republican Member from that State.
II stayed over about week or ten days
after the Chicago convention and came
in contact with large number Of people
in my district and throughout our State.
l never saw the Republicans more pleased
or more enthusiastic. Everybody is de-
lighted with the ticket. The Progress
sives in Illinois have come back and they
are lust as enthusiastic as we are. This
means that we shall win at the polls in
November. Illinois will go overwhel-
mingly for the Republican ticket. Hughes
and Fairbanks are winners throughout
the country"
eff the Republicans put some vigorous
work into North Carolina, we can carry
the State in November and make gain
in the Congressional districts of at least
two, said resident of that State to
group of Congressman at the Capitol.
81 feel quite confident that Claude
Kitchen can be beaten and that we can
carry the district in which Representa-
tive Page (Democrat) lives. He has de-
clined to be candidate. North Carolina
has become great manufacturing State,
The State has been carried by the Dem
ocrats on the race issue, but the people
are not going to be moved by sectionalism
much longer. They are waking up to the
fact that the Republican party is the
onlv one that stands for the principles
that keep tAe industries of North Caro-.
lima running and its labor employed.

Knight. Gle had to pay registration
