EVER JUST AHEAD

It's the Cinderella complex which has put its
fangs into the aspiration of all of u.s. Maybe, the
movies helped to do it.
They are good at making bad situations turn
out well-a sound and helpful philosophy if not so
overplayed with fris and fo-derols that the moral
is missed
At any rate, from whatever source it comes,
this is the modern complex. We going to get
a break some day. We are in mess now, to be
sure, but some intangible something will happen
The forlorn and lonely girl of humble environs
who must clerk for living is expectant of the
hour when some dashing Romeo will gallop up and
land her in the lap of luxury.
The poor devil who can't earn or borrow dime
that he needs sorely goes to sleep in the serene
hope that tidings will come tomorrow that an I'M
known relative has died and left him barrel OF
money.
Always there is something for all who are shy
on realizing the ideal condition just around the
bend of the days.
Life for the sheer living of it, reconciliation to
a poor estate and making the most of it, accepting
the inevitable and getting down to brass tacks-
none of this for modern Amerca!-The Charlotte
Observer.

our institutions of higher learn
ing. These educators are in daily
contact with the young people.
They are giving. their lives to edu-
cate them and promote their wei
fare and happiness. If prohlbl-
ton is running the young people
these educators would long ago
have risen and cried out against
it, and. one hundred per cent
strong they would be aligned TO-
dav against the 18th Amendment
and would be found fighting with
the vets. e
Well, what is the position OF
North Carolina educators TO-DAY !;
The vast majority of public school
teachers are still prohibitionists,
they are opposed to repeal, and
thew are going to vote dry on No
vember 9TH. That is true in Hen
derson county and III the other %
counties in the State.
What of the educators in our
institutions of higher learning! /
have vet to hear of a college presl-
dent in North Carolina who is wet
If there is one I would be greatly
pleased to get his name.

University is a pronounced dry.

lis dry. President Kitchin of Wake
Forest is dry. President Brewer
| of Meredith is dry. President
Presley of Peace Institute is dry
President w. L. Lingle of David
son is dry. President Moore OF
Mars Hill is dry. President Few
of Duke is dry. If any other col
lege president in the State is not
dry we have never heard the fact
mentioned.
DR.. Poteat, former president of
Wake Forest, is dry and is Sta.e
Chairman of the United Dry
Forces of North Carolina.
Now, | am confident that if pro-
hibition is running the young peo'
pie of North Carolina these emit
, nent educators would be aware OF
the fact, and they would oppose
it with all the power at their com"
mand. They would be out fight
ing for repeal and advocating the
repeal of North Cardinals prohl-
bition law.
So, we must conclude that the
yawping about prohibition ruin
ing the young people and increas-
ing drinking in that class Of citi-
aens is just so much irresponsible
bunk in so far as it refers to the
young people in our colleges.
! AS far as the young people are
concerned who do not 60 to col
lege, any intelligent citizen who
keeps his eyes open can answer to
his own satisfaction. We do not

The illicit liquor traffic has re-

difference in conditions is that
before prohibition we had the il

The conditions existing in this

WASHINGTON. - Farmers are
w in revolt against the law of
averages. Averages tell the farm
err that after seven months OF
Roosevelt he is % per cent better
off when you figure the prices he
gets against the prices he pays.
According to present prices,
wheat farmers will get 100000
900 more this year for 100000
600 fewer bushels of wheat-plus
s120,O00,000 or more for reduc-
ton of the next crop,
BIZ: try 10 feed averages to a
South Dakota farmer, for in
stance, and he'll probably chase
you with a pitchfork.
Out there the crop failure was
almost complete. The fact that
South Dakota raised but 100000
bushels of wheat against last years
100000 is swell for wheat prices,
but hell on South Dakota.
The oat crop was down from
75,OOO,O0O to 100000 and barley
from 100000 to 100000.
The mythical average farmer"

modities. North Dakota and Ne
braska also have been having a
bad time.

~ ton explains why some farm
ers will strike and others won't.
. A farmer with plenty Of wheat who
can get IS 10 60 cents bushel for
it now as against 81 cents last

even mildly intoxicated in their
homes and we do not see them
staggering on the streets. The
writer has been into almost every
section of Henderson county dur
ing the present campaign, has
seen and observed hundreds of
our young people. We have not
seen one drunk among them. or
one who was drinking, or one
who exhibited any evidence of be-
ing a drinker.
Some of the young are drink
ing. Young people have been
drinking through the ages and
probably will continue to the end
of time; but the conviction of
this writer, based on observation
and investigation, is that fewer
young people are drinking IN
North Carolina today than in pre-
prohibition days and the destruc-
| tive effects of the illicit liquor
traffic among this class of cltl-
zens is only a fraction of the ruin-
Gus consequences to the young
which accompanied the legaliZedi
traffic before North Carolina had

BIBLE THOUGHT
"CALL UNTO NE
1T IS GOOD BUSINESS" POLICY

, A North Carolina wet orator has said
that the Ginger of scorn" will be pointed
at this State if it fails to vote for repeal of
the 18th Amendment. That is the opposite
of the opinion of a gentleman from New
York, a visitor to Hendersonville, who says
that the best national advertising North
Carolina can get will be obtained by vot-
ing against repeal and by maintaining and
enforcing the State prohibition law. Lay
ing aside the questions involved in the
matter as an economic or social CT moral
issue and looking at j! as a business mat
ter, this New Yorker believes that North
Carolina will profit immensely by continu-
ing on the course it has pursued for 20
years in dealing with the liquor problem.
The New Workers. views are, briefly, as
stated to this newspaper, that there are
thousands Of people throughout the United
States whose preference for a State III
which to live is for a dry against wet
State. These citizens are men and women
of the highest character and in many cases
of independent financial resources. When
the legalized liquor traffic comes back, in
some of the States with little effort to con-
troll it, conditions will be so bad that these
people will be delighted to remove from
their present places of residence to great
and progressive State that is opposed to
the liquor traffic.
AS publicity to secure new citizens OF
Ir,y off
one of the strongest arguments that can be
presented, according to the views of this
New Yorker.
While the idea will be ridiculed by the
vets, it has a logical basis. If we invite
people to come to North Carolina to live
because we have good schools, a splendid
highway system, great industrial and agri-
cultural possibilities, why not invite them
30 come on account of social and civic con-
ditions without which all. the material and
educational development of the State is
worthless?
Some thousands of years ago a gentle
man named Lot transferred his residence
from the country districts to Sodom. His
later experiences are familiar to ALL With
the example of Lot and many others in
succeeding generations before them, there
are still people who prefer to live in So
dom and take the chances; but there are
millions who propose to live under the
most favorable economic, social and moral
conditions that can be found. For the past
% years North Carolina has been an in
creasingly desirable place in which to live
If North Carolina manifests the moral
character and stamina in its citizenship
that will be a guarantee for the future OF
the State, many people in other States Wi.
be drawn here and will cast their fortunes
with this State
If North Carolina breaks down, morally
and economically, in dealing with the
liquor problem and other problems, a few
Lots (the number will be small on accoun
Of the competition of other Sodoms) ma,
be attracted to the State, but the Abraham
will not be numbered in our citizenship o
the future.

administration to defend, and with
the responsibility of putting through
platform measures, have been under
a serious handicap, when it came to
the matter of handing out political
barbed shafts and keen and cutting
criticism. A great many Republican
partisans have complained that dur
ing the past few years the Republi-
can leaders have not been aggressive
in attack. But now that the situa-
ton has changed completely and the
Republicans have little to do except
to go out with their freshly sharp
ened harpoons the situation is going
to be reversed, and the Democrats
will occupy the uncomfortable seats.
This is the way it always turns out
in the arena of American politics.
Political students who do not think
the Republicans can or will take ad-
vantage of the opportunity to be Of
fered them in the coming months
have evidently forgotten the closing
months of the Wilson administration
and the tremendous Republican fight
made against the League of Nations,
the treaty of Versailles and govern
ment control of railroads and other
great utilities. The Republicans
could do this because they were in
the minority. They are again in the
minority.
