The Sin of Omission

1t isn't the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone
Which gives you bit of a hear,
ache,
At the setting of the sun.
The tender word forgotten,
The letter you did not write,
The flower you might have sent,
dear,
Are yorEt haunting ghosts to-
night.
The stone you might have lifted
Out Of brothers way,
The bit of heartsome counsel
You were hurried too much to
say.
The loving touch of the hand, dear
The gentle and winsome tone
That you had no time or thought
for,
With troubles enough of your
own.
These little acts of kindness,
So easily out of mind,
These chances to be angels
Which even mortals find
And it's not the thing you do, dear
It's the thing you leave undone
Which gives you the bitter heart
ache
At the setting of the sun.

Lack OF Money Obstacle
To Carrying On Baseball
Students to Decide on
Baseball or .lntra :
Mural Sports Program
in Which Entire Stu
dent Body May Parti-
cipate; Meeting Set
for Wednesday

Henderson high school students
will have a meeting Wednesday
morning at which time l.. l.. Miller
director of athletics, will offer the
student body two plans, one calling
for baseball this spring and the other
calling for an ambitious intra-mural
program.
Baseball has been a controversial
matter with the local school during
the past two years. 1t is one OF the
oldest continuous sports at the school
the institution having placed team
in the field for many years.
Miller has stated that it would re-
Quire about $3.50 to put a team in the
field this year, and has stated that
the money is not available for the
aggregation, due to the Budget Plan,
which has been operated at the
school this year. The plan cut down
revenue from students attending ath
letic contests.
Miller offered five things that
must be done to have baseball this
season:
1-Wait for erection of back
stop by w. P. A. at the athletic
field.
2-Condition the diamond on the
athletic field; that is, cut the grass,
smooth it off; line it off, etc.
Sit would take about three
weeks before game could be play
ed.
4-Contemplate short season;
spring vacation, senior trip; end of
school in early May; Commence
ment.
5-Raise money for balls and bats
and other equipment.
The athletic directors other plan
calls for an intra-mural program for
all the members of the student body.
He proposes a basketball league
composed of teams from the four
classes, both boys and girls-giving
eight teams; basketball league
composed of students from every
home room. There are fifteen home
rooms, giving 80 teams of boys and
girls. This would give total of Sc
teams in intramural basketball
In addition to this program, Rob-
ert B. Harrison, who coached the
girls through a successful basketball
SEASON., Has dSreeu 10 instruct Soc
Ger team on the athletic field. Soc
Ger has never been taught at the
local school, making it necessary for
much fundamental coaching to be
put in before games could be ar
ranged with other schools in the
State.
Both programs cannot be carried
out One or the other will have to
be adopted, and Coach Miller will
discuss the program with the STU
dents, permitting them to decide Just
which one they desire to carry
through the spring. Miller has stat
ed it is immaterial with him which
program the students adopt.

New Fertilizer
For Plant Beds

A great number of plant beds of
tobacco farmers have suffered con-
siderably from the recent wet wealth
er. Farmers report their young to-
bacco plants are turning yellow
from too much water and the leach
ing away of fertilizer. At the outset
OF this bad weather condition, Smith
Douglass Company, Inc, recognized
that there would soon be a need
for top-dresser of quick-acting or
ganics and minerals to replace lost
plant foods. Production on the new
product called PLANT PEP has been
speeded up and in light of this emer-
gency condition which exists, this
new fertilizer is available through
almost every SD Agent in the to-
bacco sections. The Company re-
ports wide acceptance of this pro-
duct and is using every means at its
disposal to keep deliveries up to the
demand.

that North Carolina spends 1777
cents per day to pay each child's
proportionate part of each teachers
salary.
The cost per capita for instruc-
tional salaries does not vary greatly
throughout the State. The lowest
figure is shown for Cherokee county,
where the 1858 elementary school
students were taught at per capita
instructional cost of $24.90. There
is no high school in the Cherokee
school district, fact which prob
ably accounts for the lower per
capita salary costs.
At the other end of the scale is
Dare county, where per capita cost
figured to be $34.O1. Original fig
ures in Mr.. Griffin's office showed
Wayne with a per capita cost of
$3824, but a re-check showed err
rors which reduced this to $30.14
per capita there.
In the white schools of the State
the average daily attendance per
teacher was 29 for the high schools,
33 for elementary schools, and 80
for the combined schools.

.B|NG MILLER GETS
BASEBALL CONTRACT
High School Athletic Head
Likely to Forego Sport
For Summer School

l.. L. "Bing" Miller, director OF
athletics at Henderson high school
and baseball player of note, has
recently signed a contract to play
professional baseball in the Tar Heel
League in the piedmont section OF
North Carolina, but, due to a pro-

Miller believes he will be unable tC

to the South Atlantic League, Miller
has received his release from the

to go to her heaving shoulder.
There now," he comforted.
"We'll bring him around"
He lay still as death through
that endless ride. Thanks to the
foremans untiring efforts he was
breathing, but that seemed to be
about all. His face was deathly pale
except where it was streaked with
blood from the ugly bruised cut on
the side of his head. Fearfully, she
tried to wipe the blood away, hop
ing for some sign of recognition.
What if he should-leave her like
that, without ever knowing her
again!
He still was unconscious when
they bundled him into the hospital
elevator and wheeled him into the
shining white room that smelled of
disinfectants. They closed the
doors on her then, and she was left
to wait for what seemed endless
hours. Only the hurrying feet of
the busy nurses punctuated the
long silence. The two workmen who
had accompanied her to the hospi-
tai persuaded her, with uncouth
gentleness, to sit down in an easy
chair in the little coop of a sit
ting room provided for relatives.
After that they left her alone, sit
ting together on the other side of
the room, sending pitying glances
her way and twirling their caps
uneasily.
"It will be hours before he comes
to-" the doctor told her when the
operating room door opened finally,
and they had wheeled the long,
stilled form down the corridor
again. "Td go home if I were you,
and eat. You can do nothing here,
and you must keep up your
strength"
But she shook her head.
IT must be here when he wakes, 5"
she said. She was remembering
daddy back there in the prison hos
pital. She had left him, and he died
The hours dragged by on leaden
feet while she waited. Once a pity
ing nurse brought her sandwich
and a cup Of steaming coffee from
the hospital kitchen. She choked
it down without tasting it, and
watched from the window as night
fell and the moon rose slowly in
the east, casting it's mellow light
weirdly over; the scene.
"It may be all night" the nurse
told her. "And when he does re-
cover consciousness he may not
know you."
Not know her! That would be
worse, even, than this frenzied
waiting. He must know her, her
mind kept repeating as she walked
restlessly about the little waiting
room. He must know her! She had
to see that crooked little smile
spread over his lips again at sight
of her. HAD to hear him call he1

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE

FOR A MOMENT after Jim had
fallen headlong from the top span
of the bridge down into the swirl
ing black waters below, Iona stood
stunned. Then, with scream, she
started running down to the river
bank, toward the place where he
had disappeared. A dozen men had
sprung into the water. She could
zee them milling about, searching.
Other men were shouting. The
place was a hustle of frantic ac-
tivity and nobody seemed to see her
or pay her the slightest attention.
Minutes dragged by while she
stood there, shivering, minutes
that seemed eternal. Then finally
there was a new note in the shout
ing, and one Of the diving men
came above the water, a dark,
limp figure in his arms. He was un-
conscious, Iona saw, his head loll-
ing as they pulled him ashore.
Roughly they pushed her aside
when she tried to get to him, and
perspiring foreman began the tir-
ing task of applying artificial res
piratiOn.
"But I'm his wife" she managed
to sob out, and the rough hands
on her arm grew more gentle and
they allowed her to stand close by
and watch.
''Is he bad?" she asked, between
white lips, and the pitying looks
sent her way answered her better
than words.
"Why doesn't somebody get 6

out there with that grunting mar

cash, and he looked strange anC
wild.
The burly foreman was still
working over him methodically
when the changing ambulance ar
rived and spilled a white-clothel
attendant and a grave-faced doc
tor onto the scene. Followed an
other long interval when it seemed
to Iona that she must scream with
the suspense. Then, finally, a new
tension gripped the crowded men
