and soul; others have opposed the
efforts put forth to protect the
weak from the strong.
"a large proportion OF the
press is giving daily publicity TO
propaganda, unreliable and un-
proven data, and only scant notice
to favorable news OF resolutions
from many Of the industrial lead
ers and the Christian and educa-
tional organizations. Some papers
continually glorify the drinking
of alcoholic beverages, forgetting
that even the use Of light wines
and beer has generally been the
cause of the drink habit, main
tanning that no means for con-
trolling the distribution and use
of alcohol. has thus far been de-
vised. nor do they offer anything
better or more effective. These
journals circulate in countless
homes and do untold damage to
the minds of boys and girls IN
their formative years.
"The General Assembly places
itself on record as favoring edu-
cational programs, a revival OF
civic interest, and civic righteous
ness; the observance and enforce
ment of laws, and earnest support
to governmental officers, implor-
inc the Most High always to help
us, as citizens of this great cOun-
Try. to be examples Of righteous
ness and to cherish more fully
our birthright to a country whose
God is the Lord
In 1888 the foregoing state
ment was reaffirmed and this
paragraph was added:
eve believe the times call for
a fresh educational crusade
against the evils of the drink
curse, and call upon our churches,
Sunday schools, and young peo-
pies societies, to be tireless II
their efforts to combat the use Of
alcoholic liquors as a beverage"
There is no uncertainty in the
attitude of DR.. Lingle, one of the
leading college presidents in the
South. about he present contest
of the country with the liquor
evil. He is earnestly supporting
prohibition and the 18th Amend
ment.

/ dreamed of its evils"
Dr.. Lingle then introduces the
record by quoting from the ac,
ton Of the Assembly of 1886, as
follows:
| GAS the traffic in and use OF
Intoxicating liquors as beverage
are the prolific causes of so much
crime, poverty and suffering IN
our land, and as it costs people
so much money in criminal prose
cutions and the support of the
victims of drink, and as it is one
} of the greatest enemies of the
. church of Christ in destroying the
sanctity Of the Christian Sabbath
in its right observance wherever
its blighting influence is felt, and
as we are warned against its eff
fleets in I Corinthians 6:10; there
fore, in view of these terrible eff
fects, this General Assembly bears
its testimony against this evil, and
recommends to all our people the
use of all legitimate means for its
Punishment from the land"
Similar action was frequently
taken by the Assembly through
the years, and in 1882 this deliv-
erance was made:
"The General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church. U. s., while
conforming to its time-honored
belief in the complete separation
of Church and State, feels that
an expression of its views on
great moral questions is both OPP
perfume and imperative. The
widespread disregard for law, the
purchase of liquor from bootleg
gers. and the serving of it to
guests by many otherwise good
people, is leading to sad and dis
tressing results. Where a break
down has occurred, it has been
largely confined to parents and
the older generations, rather than
to the splendid and courageous
youth of today. Drunkenness has
always been and is now a very
grave problem in every country
Thousands who might have been
useful, upright citizens have sold
their characters and their very
souls for days of debauchery and
crime. Many have ruined heir
lives because they have insisted
on using what they called personal
liberty-the right to destroy body

government from the legalized liquor
traffic
If that is true the country will be cont
PEELED to drink three or four times as much
LIQUOR as was consumed before prohibition
and the drink bill will be ten billion i'll
stead of one-fourth of that amount. OF
course Mr.. Farley is exaggerating. He IS
trying to knock the people dumb with big
figures; but, if the legalized liquor bust
ness is restored and attains former proper
tons, the country will again resort to the
policy of wasting billions in order to col
lect millions in revenue.
Jake Newell makes the estimate that Ii
North Carolina consumes its proportion OF
the alcoholic beverages necessary to raise
nearly billion in revenue in the country
this State will spend more than 100000,
900 annually for intoxicating liquors. Can
North Carolina afford to spend that sum ct
money for drink? This is business mat
ter. 1t is of the gravest Importance to
every manufacturer, farmer, merchant or
other business man. The more liquor sold
in North Carolina the less business will be
done by every citizen engaged in legitl-
mate industry or trade. No business man
can afford, as a matter of good business
policy, to encourage in any way the restor-
alton of the legalized liquor traffic.
The answer of the vets is, of course,
that as much money is going for bootleg
LIQUOR now as will be spent for the legal
lied product. If that should prove true
throughout the country, Mr.. Farley's liquor
system will produce only fraction OF the
revenue he so fondly anticipates.
AS a matter of fact the bootleg liquoc
business in this State is only a fraction il
what the legalized traffic used to be. There
is not an intelligent and informed wet IN
North Carolina who believes that the boot
leg traffic runs to hundred million dol
lars, or to tenth of that sum.
Before prohibition the country had the
localized and illicit liquor traffic. Under
prohibition it has the illicit traffic but has
wiped out the legalized traffic. After re-
neal the country will again have the legal
lied traffic and the illicit traffic. with
both kinds of liquor traffic the consump-
ton will be encouraged and increased
many fold in comparison with the condl-
tons existing under prohibition.
To vote to restore the legalized traffic
is to vote to take from citizens engaged IN
legitimate business large part OF their
volume of business and turn it over to the
brewers and distillers and dealers in liquor

Following the directions given by
the national council, the various

Warming to All Outsiders
Camping at the Neighbour
ing Farms Around Camp
Nitgedniget

Many people who hire bungalows
from the farmers around Camp Nit
gedaiget, have made it habit to
come In on the grounds Of Camp
Nitgedaiget and cause discomfort TO
the campers, by using ont the warm
water of the showers, by capturing
all the convenient places ut the
swimming pool, and generally make
use of all the comforts and conye-
niences TO which only campers are
entitled.
This problem of outside guests was
taken up by the management from
every angle, considering that some OF
them are workers who cannot afford
to stay in camp, but also considering
the hardships 1t brings on the reg
ular campers to whom the manage
ment is responsible, 1t Was decided TO
stop all outsiders from using any
equipment Of the camp.
We are therefore announcing this
decision early In the season, so that
there will not be any excuse Of not
knowing Of the change Of policy.
The management at Camp Nitge-
daiget warns all outside guests from
the ncighboring farms, that the
strictest measures will be applied in
order to carry through this decision.

She is charged with "felonious as

stration for relief which was at
tackled by police.
The postponements were made to
avoid the mass pressure in court,
hoping that the workers would lose
interest in the case, and to give the
police more time to build up a better
frame-up than they have now.
