SOUTH WILL SOLVE
 BIG RACE PROBLEM
Methodist Preacher So Declares
 in North Carolina


 Lake Junalaska. N. C., Aug. 1O.- The next big forward step in the solu- tion of the race question will come from the south. the Rev. w. w. Alexander of Atlanta, secretary of the commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation, predicted here today at the Laymen's Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church south
 II say this with absolutely due re- gard for the friendship of the negro in other sections and with the fullest and unstinted gratitude for all they have done in philanthropy and education, in church and state," the Rev MT. Alex ander said. Nevertheless, the next big step in the inter-racial readjustment is to come from the south, and the req son for this is perfectly apparent
 The south can afford to do it, and what is a great deal better, there is d growing conviction here based upon a sense of justice and fair play for all men. Then too, the south has social prestige to do this. The social ques- ton figures largely in the race ques- ton. So the south can, when it will, take the leadership in international CO., operation.
 II believe the south will assume this leadership. with. the same sort of pride and determination as ita led the nation in the overthrow of the rum traffic.
 It has been the universal opinion of those who have come in close touch with the question that. negro leaders do not desire or seek social equality. They have asked for police protection, better housing, better sanitary and living con- ditions. better educational facilities, and chance to develop into useful Ameri- can citizens with every determination to maintain their own social life and the purity of the two racial stocks
 The reasonableness and intelligence of negro leaders greatly encouraged the white men who have come in contact with them. The fact that southern white men and women have manifested their interest in negro welfare has gone far to allay the unrest and pes stmism which was so rapidly spreading through great sections of the negro leadership in America

 TAKEN FROM BOND
$, 300, 900 Gallons Less During Past Six Months Than Same
 Period of Last Year.

Washington, Aug. 10.-Withdrawals of whiskey from bonded warehouses during the first six months of this year fell off by more than $500, 900 gallons compared with the same period last year, according to records made public today by the internal revenue bureau.

 Decreases in withdrawals during the first three months of this year were explained by the ban closing warehouses and distilleries, which was modified in April to permit with drawals by retail druggists and in May to allow wholesale druggists to withdraw whiskey.
 A decrease of $14,312,519 in the eales of stamps for non-beverage spirits was also shown during the Afst six months of this year. Stamp eales for the first half of the year aggregated $27,916,4sO as compared with s42,228.s99 during the first halt of 1920.

Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.
HOW to please the MenLa.

Clever women are never popular with
men unless they are clever enough to
conceal how clever they are. Men still
prefer feminine brains scrambled, and
the less woman knows, the better
they like her. The college graduate
VINO is entitled to write M A after
her name is seldom called Ma unless
she has sense enough to refrain from
making display of her erudition,
and discoursing upon highbrow sub
JectS to men whose reading is mostly
confined to the stock market reports,
and the Retail Growers Gazette.
Doubtless, in the process of time.

Will not desire to pose as oracles be-
fore women, and will not prefer to
have little fluffy ruffies roll her
eyes at them, and ask them fool ques-
tons, to sitting at the feet of lady
Solomon and gathering up the pearls
of wisdom that drop from her lips.
But that time has not arrived, nor will
it be here in the next thousand years.
Therefore, the girl who wishes to
be riot with men, does well to put
the soft pedal on her attachments, and
never, never under any circumstances,
correct mans grammar, or his his
tory, or set him right about his po-
litical statements. No man loves a
woman who knows more than he does.
The more feminine a woman is, the
both dress and conduct. You never
saw a man who didn't like chiffons
or ribbons. And you never saw a man
who didn't like gentleness, and sweet
ness in a woman.
The reason is perfectly obvious.
Each sex likes best In the other the
thing that it hasn't got. If a man
wants to look at nlannish attire, and
listen to somebody swear, and curse,
and tell off-colored stories, he sticks
to mems society. He doesn't hunt up

! girl makes as little hit with men as
the sissy man makes with women. So
the girl is wise who sticks to her fur
bellows and who cries when she gets
angry. instead of saying damn"
Men like sympathetic women. They
like the woman who has the eternal
mother in her, for men never grow up.
At heart they are always little boys
who want to lay their heads down in
some feminine lap and be petted, and
pitied and consoled.

he fails and gets discouraged. has got

unto Me, all we that labor and are
heavy laden, and will give you rest"
A friend of mine, once trained nurse,
is now employed by a group of ply
sicians as sort of spiritual assistant
she visits certain classes of patients
and reads the Bible to them and prays
with them and strives to impart the
healing touch of faith. Hers it is to
cry, Rest in the Lord" When medi-

Him who is our peace.
Good Times" and "Good Fellows"
One further great essential of rest
That is Christian fellowship. AS the
spirit of man sometimes needs soii-
tude, for a re-esta blishinent of sense
of proportions, so at other times, and
congenial minds. This idea of fellow
ship, which is emphasized By such
modern organizations as the Rotary
and kiwanis clubs, is central to the
Christian church. THE communion
of the saints is a fundamental doc
trine that holds good for two worlds.
The church has no fault to find
with the worlds good fellows"-ex-
cept that they are SO often neither
truly good nor true fellows" Their
fellowship often runs no deeper than
the bottom of the inebriating glass. 1t
is not the sort of quality that will en-
dure stress and storm.
When genuine, good fellows are
one of the best sources of good
times" The Scripture bids Christians
not to forsake the assembling of them
selves together; the art of friendship
is a Christian virtue. to be learned
from the Master Himself, who found
refreshment for His soul in the COM
pany of His disciples in the Bethany
home, at the wedding feast and in
constant contact with His kind. Every
where Christians sing:

Our mutual burdens hear,
And often for each other flows
