NEW ARMY BILL is

was no need of an increased army.

AT FOALiNG TIME

During a colts birth no one should
pull promiscuously on the feet or the
head, unless they are presented o.
gother. Normal presentations are,
the head and front feet. or the two
hind feet first. Any deviation from
this is abnormal and usually causes
trouble.
Where presentation OF the colt Is
not normal conditions should be rec
titled Or competent veterinarian
put on the case at once; otherwise
delay or incompetent help may cause
the death of the fetus, or the mother
or both.
Any operation of this kind should
be handled with the greatest antisep-
tic precautions so as not to carry In
lection into the genital organs.
Plenty OF clean warm water and a
mild antiseptic should be used in
caring for the mare and the foal at
this time.
Beware of allowing every one to try
to rectify an abnormal presentation.

Governor and Flood Sufferers.
Winston-Salem Journal.


That was a fine message which
the Governor carried to the peo.
pie OF food-swept Wilkes, a mes
sage such as they needed, OF
brotherhood and encouragement
and hope. When a people have
gone down into the depths, have
faced despair, grim and black,
the knowledge that the State is
with them and will nelp them is
the knowledge that will save.
The people OF Wilkes have had
their immediate material necessi-
ties supplied and now they are
beginning to to take stock, and
a sad task it is. In one night al
most all their public highways
were destroyed, their bridges
wrecked, much of their splendid
farm lands ruined and many OF
their homes were swept away.
The State awoke one morning to
see in the papers a story of de-
vastation that was unbelievable
and subsequent Investigations
proved what the newspapers had
was not half. And now it is over
and the people of those districts
are grimly facing the future.
They know the State sent them
food and clothing, but perhaps
they had not thought until the
Governor came that the great
heart of the State was yearning
over them, that the aid was as
from one brother to another. 1t
was an incidental thing. The
great work is yet to come a n d

them.

or told them. "Stick to Wilkes"
these were his words. The great
heart of the west is a determined
one, and that message which the
Governor carried will help them
stick.
The fight is for Wilkes and all
the counties which now have the
task of rebuilding. 1t is q task
that calls for the greatest hero.
ism, the long, steady, hard grind
of years of untiring efforts. But
they wlllwin. Already they have
taken stock and are considering

ton of their road system. Such
a spirit admits of no defeat.
And the heart o q great State
is with them in the fight and with
the pride as OF one brother for
another, will rejoice over their
accomplishments.

Judge Hughes vs.. President Wilson.

dress accepting the nomination
OF the Republican party for Pres
dent was agreat disappointment
to the country at larg, as it was
devoted largely to a criticism OF
President Wilson's policy to.
wards Germany and Mexico. 1t
would be inferred from his speech
that if he had been President he
would not only have egone to war
with Germany, but would have
interviewed and gone to war with
Mexico. He doesn't say that he
would have gone to war, but
that is the only side OF the ques-
tion he can take and criticise the
democratic administration. Pres
ident Wilson is opposed to war,
and has used his wise diplomacy
in dealing with Germany, and
has made the Kaiser come to the
terms OF the United States and
stop his murderous submarine
warfare, and has kept the peace
between one hundred million peo-
pile in America and the German
government.
Mexico has been a source OF
trouble for years and years. They
were numbering Presidents and
fighting during the Taft admin
istratiCn. So this Mexican troub.
le was inherited from a republi-
can administration. President
Taft refused to intervene and 90
to war, because he was q peace
loving citizen. The trouble in
Mexico has not been settled, but
we have been kept out OF war.
The National Guard has been
modelled on the Mexican Dor.
der, and old Carranza appears
to be coming to his senses, and
the prospects look good for a
peaceful settlement of our Mexi-
can trouble. The only thing that
President Wilson has not done
that he should have done was to
and go to war with
Mexico, which would have meant
the death OF hundreds and thou.

President Wilson has kept this

to defeat President Wilson, the

Julius c. Chapps|I.

The subject OF this sketch was
born in Wilkes county, NJ C. July
10, 1914, died April %, 1916 in
the y year Of his age. He NOV.
ed to Watauga county and set.
tied on Banner Elk in 1872.
He with his wife who has gone
on before went into the organi.
zatlon of Beech Mt. (now Mt.
Calvary church) in 1876 where
he lived a consistent consecrated
Christian life till the day OF his
death. He was not only the lea
ding deacon OF the. church, who
by his wise leadership brought
inspiration to the membership
in the support of the church IN
all of it's work; he was the NOV
ing spirit in the community in
which he lived in every good
cause. He was indeed the leader
OF a noble people who felt honor
ed and safe in his hands. 1t was
natural when difficult questions
would arise in the church orcom.
munity for every one to turn to
him. Notwithstanding his linn
tied education, he was a man OF
natural ability and possessed OF
good business capacity.
As to books there was but one
with him, the Bible; his every day
companion. The Bible and Bib.
lical Recorder held the place OF
honor in his heart and life.
While he respected others for
their honest convictions he had
no compromise for any doctrine
that could not be sustained by
the Bible. There was possibly
no more liberal man to his abil.
ity than Brother Chappell.
No pastor ever turned away
from that church for other fields
of labor without feeling that he
had left behind q friend and sup
porter in the person of our dear
brother. He was indeed the
preachers friend.
To know brother Chappell was
to loye and honor him for the
exercise OF his honest convictions
in what he believed to be right.
To write the history OF the CON-
munity in which he lived would
be to point out the life work OF
J. C. Chappell.
1t was in 1896 that the writer
became associated with brother
as pastor of his church
and which continued for q nun.
Der OF years, during which time
| learned OF his frmness and
faithfulness to the truth and the
steadfastness of his friendship.
He knew no way to betray a.
friend or turn away from him in
the day of adversity.
But his life work is done. lie
has gone home. He has laid
down his weapons of war. He is
in the presence OF the King. He
is resting. lie is happy blessed
forever more. 1t is all overnow,
it is finished. Home at last. That
blessed "Welcome thou good and
faithful servant" will be his when
he stands in the presence of the
King and enters upon the full.
ness OF that eternal joy.
He now sleeps beside his wife
near the church that he so much
loved until Jesus comes again.
Well may it be said of him,
Blessed are the dead which die
in the Lord from henceforth, yea
saith the Spirit that they may
rest from their labours, and their
works do follow them"

- The members of the Jane JET
ferson Club OF Denver, the pio.
neer organization OF women vo-
ters of the United States, ought
to feel fattered with the atten-
tion President Wilson has be-
slowed upon them. He not only
wrote them one OF his lengthiest
State documents, but he caused
it to be delivered to them in per-
son, having delegated Assistant
Attorney General Thompson, in
Colorado in the interests of the
Presidents campaign, for that
purpose, In the course OF his
letter President Wilson elabora-
ted his ideas on suffrage. He
told the Jane Jefferson club.wo-
men that one OF the strongest
forces behind the equal suffrage
sentiment of the country is the
now demonstrated fact that in
the suffrage states women inter-
est themselves in public questions
study them thoroughly, form
their opinions and divide as men
do concerning them. 1t must in
frankness be admitted that there
are two sides to almost every
important public question, and
even the best informed persons
are bound to differ in Judgment,
1t is not only natural, but right
and patriotic that the success of
opposing convictions should be
sought through political align
ment and the measuring OF their
strength at the polls through
political agencies. Men do this
naturally. and so do women
though it has required their prac.
tical demonstration OF it to con.
vince those who doubted this.
In proportion as the political de-
velopment OF women continues
along this line the cause OF equal
suffrage will be promoted. Those
who believe in equal suffrage are
divided into those who believe
that each state should determine
for itself when and in what direc-
tion the suffrage and those who
believe that it should be immedi-
ately extended by the action of
the National Government by
means of an amendment to the
Federal Constitution. But
"Both the great political par
ties OF the Nation have in their
recent platforms favored the ex-
tension of the suffrage to women
through State action, and l do
not see how their candidates can
consistently disregard these Of
fetal declarations. shall en-
deavor to make the declaration
OF my own party in this matter
effectual by every influence that
l can properly and legitimately
exercise
There is no playing politics in
tnat attitude of the President.
The women who admire candor
and fairness will be inclined to
line up on his side. He further
tells them that woman's part in
the progress of the race "is quite
as important as mans. The old
notion, too, that suffrage and
service goes hand in hand is a
sound one and women may we'll
appeal to 1t, though it has long
been invoked against Them" A
gainst these sentiments of a
statesman, Hughes would tickle
the vanity OF the women and put
their amendment safely in cold
storage. Charlotte Observer.
