japanese Taught TO Repress Emotioa.
Until late years the repression Oh
any appearance Of strong emotion was
carefully drilled into the mind and life
OF every Japanese child Of the better
.lass. There is much more freedom now
than formerly, but the influence Of past
training is seen everywhere-in art,
in literature, on the stage and in. the
customs of daily life. Artists paint
the autumn moon, which every Japan
csc adores, but he wraps the brilliant
disk within veil of cloud.

Needed To Quiet The Great Un-
rest and Restore Things To
Normal.

Washington. Aug. 11.-Not in a
long time has President Wilson de-
livered message to Congress which
has brought forth such dem0nstra-
tons approval as the message he
delivered Friday.
His declaration that there could
be no settled conditions here or else
where until the treaty Of peace is
out of the way, and the work of
liquidating the great war has become
the chief concern of our own govern
ment and of all the other govern
ments of the world, called forth
great demonstration of his followers.
HIS handling of the labor situation
pleased both Republicans and Demo
Gratis alike. both sides joining heart
Iy in the applause
The big surprise of the message
was the presidents S assertion that
failure to ratify the peace treaty,
was largely responsible for the un-
satisfactory conditions in living.
His seizing upon the existent un-
rest as new argument in favor of
Fastening action an the treaty pleas
ed the Democratic senators and
representatives imme6sely. 81 .
The clevernesss of the president
compelled their admiration and they
made it manifest AS they applaud
ed their countenances were wreath
ed in smiles.
Some Of the presidents remedies
for the existent conditions of living
were: ...
The passage of the peace treaty.
The sale of surplus stocks of food
and clothing in the hands of the
government.
The drawing out of storage and
putting On the market such stocks
as are in private hands.
The passage of a statute provid-
ing penalty for profiteering.
The passage of a law regulating
cold storage as it is regulated by the
laws of New Jersey, which limits
the time during which goods may
be kept in storage, provided the
method of disposing of them is kept
beyond the permanent period and
regulating that the goods SO releas-
ed from storage shall in all cases
bear the date of their receipt. =
Passage of the law providing all
goods released from the storage for
interstate shipment should have
plainly marked upon each package
the selling or market price at which
they went into storage.

Let Us Understand One
Another aud Differences
Will Rapidly Melt Away

High Point today is witnessing
an unusual and really an unnec-
essary condition. Several hund-
red men are walking the streets
because they feel that they have
a right to organize themselves.
On the other hand their former
employers (the manufacturers
or at least a majority of them, are
on record as being opposed to
employing union labor.
This states the situation exact
ly without attempting to favor
either side.
Now as to the result-Hieh
Point is the loser and a bad loser
too. The wheels of industry
would not be clo9ged another day
if more of the brotherly love spirit
was displayed and less of indiffer-
ence. Surely there is a way.
We are after all one big family
brothers in sense-and each de-
pendent upon one another and
whatever we have accomplished
in this life has been due to this
indisputabIe dependency.
So why stay apart gentlemen
let's apply the golden rule and
if this is done the wheels of pro-
gress will hum merrily on tomOr-
row and every inhabitant will be
happy and contented and feel
like excIaiming-"h how pleasant it
is to dwell among brethren"

SPEEDER.

Burlington Officer Knows No Favor
ites-AIl Speeders Look Like 10
Him and He Sticks To His Guns.
Governor Bickett's recent trip
West was $685. more expensive than
it might have been. but, with alt
that, the governor has the satlstac-
ton of knowing that there is one
policeman of the law in North Caro-
lima who plays no favorites under
the speed laws.
Yes, the governor was pulled he
was hauled down in his, machine,
with his guests, in the town of Bur
lineton. for exceeding the speed

lob. The governor car slowed to
a stop and the policeman did his
duty.
WHO? THE GOVERNOR!
You wouldn't hold up the COVER
nor of North CaroliRa, would you?"
someone in the governors car in
quired.
What the policeman said wasn't
clear. He made it plain, though;
that the Governor of North Carolina
is not entitled to special privileges
under the speed laws.
Bill" wasn't quite sure that he
was speeding. He wanted to argue,
but the governor was already con-
WINGED. He waved off Bill" con-
graduated the policeman on sticking
to his job, and admitted the speed.
Il PLEAD GUILTY"
"You tell the mayor that / plead
guilty." said he Tell him to send
