MUSIC LOVERS
 GIVE OVATION
 TO MUSICIANS
Matilda Hoist and Iris Gray Perform at Concert
 with Rare Skill

Juneau music lovers were afford cd a rare opportunity last evening to hear a concert given by two of Juneau's most talented young wo- men, Miss Matilda Hoist and Miss Iris Gray.
 Never has the smooth rounded mezzosoprano voice of Miss Hoist been heard to better advantage than in last nights concert when she sang Handel, Gluck, Schumann and Brahms numbers. Rounding out her program, Miss Hoist sang sev- eral negro spirituals showing rare degree of understanding of this type of music.
 As an encore Miss Hoist, clad in a Thlinket ceremonial robe, sang Carol Beery Davis lovely "Kuse- hani," (SweethearD a composition based on two old Thlinket melodies.
 Accompanying Miss Hoist and in two groups of solos Miss Gray displayed a degree of technical ease and feeling for her selections that marked her as one of the most enthusiastically received pianists ever heard in Juneau.
 The Juneau audience enthus- iastically took the two young musi- clans to it's heart last night at the concert held in the auditorium of the Northern Light Presbyterian Church. The ovation was in part welcome to two returning travel CTS, but it was more than that. Primarily it was an ovation to a pair of accomplished artists.
 Miss Hoist, the daughter of MT and Mrs. Martin Hoist, is a grad uate of the Juneau High School. She has attend the University of Washington, and is now studying music at Oregon State College.
 Miss Gray is the daughter of MT and Mrs. J. L. Gray and also a grad uate of the local high school.

The boxes con- tained $50, distributed in boxes containing dollars, halves, quarters and dimes. The men were for the time being knocked almost breath less but recovered and duly &C., knowledged the gift.

2 TRADITIONAL LETTER BOXES
 ARE INSTALLED
Juneau Is Becoming More Metropolitan in U. s.
 Mail Service

Juneau is becoming more metro politan, in many respects, day by day and especially in the matter of mail service.
 First, post office substations were established.
 Then a green letter box was in- stalled at the corner of Seward and Front, at the Juneau Drug Com pany
 Today, Postmaster Albert Vile announced the placing of two more letter boxes, one in front of the Butler-Mauro Drug Company's store and the other on the corner at the front of the Leader Department Store, Ferry Way and South Frank lin Street.
 Mail collections, according to Postmaster Albert Vile, are made twice daily, at o'clock in the af- ternoon and II o'clock in the even ing, also one hour before the de- parture of any mail steamer, west, north or southbound
 Postmaster Vile also announces that notwithstanding erroneous re- ports, the mail at the Juneau Post Office is never closed until one hour before steamer is scheduled to sail. One hour gives the mail clerks opportunity to stamp, tie-up and deliver the mail to the mail truck
 Many persons rush in during the last Is minutes and register a kick, if the mail is not taken-but the truck has left, the mail has been signed for by the mail clerk on the steamer and it is just too bad they are late when they have known per haps for days just when a steamer is sailing. The best way then is to take the late letter and mail it in the bag at the gangplank of the steamer.

Carolina watchman. [volume] (Salisbury, N.C.) 1871-1937, 1936-11-13

Paul was eager to make a good i'm
preston. Rome was the queen
city, and so the church there SEEM
ed to the apostle of unusual strate-
gic significance.
What does Romans teach? Its
central theme is that salvation is
the fruit of faith which all souls,
Jews and Gentle alike, can expert
ence and cultivate. This declara-
ton, which Paul presents with
great elaboration, is surely one of
the most inspiring of the New
Testament teachings. Its influence
in Christian history has been mo-
mentous. 1t was close to the heart
of Augustine, the greatest of the
early Christian thinkers, and it was
fundamental to Luther who used
it as the fulcrum for the historic
movement of revolt.

SEES STRONGER DEMAND
FOR FARM COMMODITIES

American farmers will find an
increased demand for their pro-
ducts in 1887, according to a fore
cast sen Dean l. o. Schaub, of
State College, by the federal bu-
reau of agricultural economics.
Most of the increase will be in
domestic consumption, but some
improvement in foreign demand is
also expected, the dean pointed out.
The forecast stated that changes
in domestic demand for farm pro-
ducts are determined largely by
changes in the income of consum-
ers and in industrial activity.
Industrial activity in 1857 is ex-
pected to be around 10 per cent
higher than in 1886, and the ma
tional income will probably rise in
the same proportion. A slight rise
in the commodity price level is
also anticipated.
Improved industrial conditions
in some of the important foreign
countries have been noted, but the
improvement has not been fully
reflected in the exports of Ameri-
can farm products because barriers
to international trade erected dur
ing the past decade tend to limit
American exports as we'll as i'm
ports.
Then too, it was pointed out,
the supplies of some farm products
usually exported were smaller than
usual this year.
Many farmers and agricultural
authorities also doubt the advis-
ability of exporting American
farm commodities when they must
be, sold at extremely low prices 60
meet foreign competition. Such
exports are not considered worth
while unless they bring the grow
ers a profit above the cost of pro-
duction.
Although the demand for farm
products is expected to be heavier
in 1857, it was pointed out that if
farmers increase their production
materially, and if the weather is
highly favorable, this increase may
check any rise in prices due to this
:; greater demand.
In this event, prices during the
!, later part of 1887 would probably
not go above the present levels.
However, if prices remain about
the same, and the quantity of sales
increases, the total farm cash in
come would 60 I'D.

With the organization of publ

schools, the newspapers are able to
keep a better weather eye on the
activities of the elevens, but as yet

With the increased interest
among football followers of this
state, better material; far-reach-
ing promotional programs, more
and better coaching, and better
playing facilities, the North State
Conference is destined to come
into her own within the next few
wears.
In competing with the Big Five

rely on the night games which
would attract a larger lumber of

well as catch the crowds from the
larger schools on the rebound.

North State Teams
Gain Recognition
in National Circles
By Paul Caldwell

North State Conference football
is growing more prominent year by
year, and football in the Little Six
some five years from now will
probably offer an even faster brand
of play.
Waking the North Carolina sports
editors to the fact that North State
schools play a more improved game
than the junior colleges to which
the majority of scribes place the
conference schools has been no easy
task, but they are rapidly respond
ing to the yards of sport copy that
reach their desks daily.
By playing the more prominent
teams throughout the Carolinas and
southeast, as has been the custom
of the Little Six teams during the
past four years, members of the
sportswriting fraternity are begin
ming to see that even the North
Staters are capable of furnishing
real honest-to-goodness competition
for the larger schools.
Material in these North State
schools is beginning to compare
more %favorably with that Of the
Big Five schools, and the coaches
are being watched as they send
their elevens out to do battle with
Davidson's Wildcats, States Wolf
pack Oh George Washington's Col
onials. When a Little Six eleven
holds a larger team to a small score,
the second-guessers say well, what
do you know about that?" and the
sports journalists scratch their
heads and wonder if the favored
eleven was playing under wraps.
With the organization of the
North State Conference there were
eight schools who were as evenly
matched as time went on both

Secondly, this epistle is of a gen

problems and specific difficulties.
Neither is it so personal in tone.

Golden Text: John 1913.
When Paul wrote his noble mes
sage to the Romans, the most am
bir!ous of all his writings, he was
at the great turning point in his
career. Through the eastern pro-
vinces of the empire he had travelled
for several years, and now he felt
he could turn his attention to the
mighty capital of the west.
The result is a letter that stands
alone among the passionate, reveal
ing epistles of Paul. In the first
place he felt obligated to explain
in detail the nature of his gospel.
His Roman readers had never heard

MOORE SCHOOLS
Enrolment Increased Over
Figures Given Out Last
Week to Nine Hundred
ITEMS SCHOOL INTEREST

The additional enrolment of pu-
pills during the week has brought
the total up to approximately 900
enrolled. A significant trend in
our pupil enrolment has been that
the Secondary School enrolment
is steadily increasing, while the
Elementary School enrolment is
apparently dropping off. In the
last decade the enrolment in the
Elementary School, when compar-
ed with the Secondary School, has
been reduced by third In other
words, again as many pupils were
enrolled in the Elementary as
there were in the High School.
Today, the enrolment is practical
ly the same for each department.
AS far as our local school is con-
cerned, there are approximately
400 in the Secondary School and
400 in the Elementary School,
The Kindergarten this year opened
with a very interesting group of 27
pupils. These children have been
divided into a morning section of
13 and an afternoon section of IA
pupils.-The regular monthly meet
ing of the Board of Education was
held at the John Bassett Moore
School on Wednesday, September
16, at noon. 1t is required by law
that the Board reorganize and hold
a regular meeting after July 1, at
the principal school building in the
district. At the meeting, the Su-
perintendent made a report as to
the enrolment, the progress of the
school work, the assignment of
teachers to their respective duties,
and such other routine business as
might be of interest to members of
the local Board of Education.-Our
local schools will again cooperate
with the two local banks and the
Educational Thrift Service, in try
ing to encourage our pupils in the
habit of thrift. Tuesday morning
of each week has been designated
as banking day. Teachers have
been instructed to encourage their
pupils to participate in this worthy
undertaking.

Smyrna Rotary is sponsoring a
wonderful entertainment tonight
at the John Bassett Moore High
School Auditorium when the West

to be an evening well worth while.
At the meeting of Smyrna Rotary
last Thursday evening Mr.. Clifford
Stelle of Civilian Conservation
Corps of Barkers Landing, Della
ware, was guest speaker. Mr..
Stelle described the atrocities of
fever, being developed after bitten
by mosquitoes. Blasting with dy-
namite caused the disappearance
of mosquitoes in the Panama Canal
Zone. The present method used in
the mosquito work throughout the
United States is ditching. This
work is done by the thousands of
young men enlisted from the un-
employed ranks to carry on this
wok in the interest of health to the
inhabitants. Special attention is
given to the marshes where wild
fowl habitates and muskrats make
their homes. Elimination of breed
ing places around the home were
described. Mr.. Stelle concluded by
stating that inspections should be
made about the homes and towns
of our state to help eliminate the
multiplication of mosquitoes. Mr..
William Smith OF the CCC Camp
entertained the club with several
songs accompanying himself on the
guitar.
