SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 1922. We hope to enlist the aid of a few more fanners in the growing of tomatoes for the cannery. We would be find to have ten or twenty additional acres planted. It is not too late. We have the seed and we are ready to make additional contracts. We sign up to take your entire product at a given price. That should satisfy you that we are willing to assume our part of the responsibility in the program. Besides, we hope to have tomatoes coming in for a period of four months. The late crop as well as the early crop will be acceptable. We do not see the necessity of this country waiting longer to give recognition to the present Mexican government. It seems that the present administration of government in Mexico is succeeding in bringing order out of chaos, and that real stability has come to the people of Mexico. I' would help forward the gains already attained by the Mexican government tor this government to extend recognition. Other leading- nations have given, or soon will give, the Mexican's rt cognition. The next door neighbor should be among the first, not the last, *o extend recognition. The perfectly good order that pre \nils at the campaign meetings being held in the city primary campaign is worthy of commendation. The respect and attention given the candidates aro i 11 that could be desired. There are two probable reasons, we believe, for the very marked improvement, the C* absence of liquor and the presence of the women. The large gatherings are entirely sober and the large number of women attending is noticeable. There is not as much cheering, not as much noisy talking and there has, so far, been no hecklirtg of candidates. We believe the people are thinking and will come nearer to voting in ac( onlance with their own convictions of duty than they have ever before done. And why should not the people take seriously their right to the franchise? Why should there not be brought to bear a deliberate weighing of the men who offer to serve in the public affairs of the community? We have come to a better day, we believe, in the management of the affairs of the public. ' ' . I . Ilf I if you have anything to hide from 1 public gaze. * ?

Millions Placed at Interest In New York and London Lima, Peru, April 18.?Millions of dollars in Peruvian gold, lying idle in government depositories here as a currency reserve, will be placed at interest in New York and London under legislation adopted by the Peruvian Congress to establish a federal reserve bank and revise the country's financial system. The reserve bank act, patterned after similar legislation in the United States, provides for an elastic currency which can not be tampered with. Notes of the bank w 1 be payable in gold in Peru, and in gold drafts in New York and London. The institution's reservoir of credit will be avail iklit t.t un\r P?i?ihmom ko n Ir /i un emergency, thus permitting private financial institutions to extend greater commercial accommodations from their gold resources. Dr. W. W. Cumberland, American financial representative of the Peruvij.n government, will be a permanent member of the new bank's board of directors. Price of Beer Increasing London, April 17.?The ever-increasing price of beer is worrying England. Tlie foaming mug that once graced even the most humble table is fast getting beyond the reach of the poori'r families, and a reduction in taxation is the onl ything that will bring it back again, according to the chairman of a big London brewery. By its excessive tax on cigars and sparkling wines, the government effectively killed the trade in these ommodities, he said, and beer will he next ti irn In 1014 the hrewevn paid duty on 36,000,000 barrels of beer, while in 1020, the amount has shrunk to 25,000,000 ban els. The estimate for 1921, the brewer said, is slightly less than 21,000,000. William Wrigley Jr., And Prosperity That business is improving in the East and that this condition is spreading to the Middle West by degrees, is the opinion of William Wrigley, Jr., president of the William Wrigley, Jr. Co., Chicago. The good old American dollar is coming back into its own. People fivm one end of the nation to the other are getting around to the idea that the only basis for real prosperity is an honest day's work for a fair day's wage.

"The year 1921 was regarded as a pretty bad period for lots of concerns in the East and Middle West," said Mr. Wrigley.

American Minister Makes Hit With Danes Copenhagen, April 17.?John Dyne-ley Prince, America's new Minister to Denmark, has made a hit with the Danish people by his versatility. Soon after his arrival here the Copenhagen newspaper men swooped down on him for an interview, having previously brushed ap on their Enir lish, but Dr. Prince took them off their feet by speaking fluent Danish Before the interview was over they learned that the new minister, formerly a professor at Columbia University, had some 20 languages at his tongue's end. j Soon afterward Dr. Prince delivered a lecture on Oriental music, and here again h:s versatility found even wider scope. lie illustrated these Ancient musical technicalities by playing various oriental instruments vith ease.

VICKS V A FO RUM Over I7 Million Jan Utod Yearly Little Girl Saves Lives of Comrades Nine-YearlOld Whitlock Girl Save? Two Little Companions From Drowning. Annie Lou Whitlock, nine years of age, deserves a Carnegie hero medal for saving the lives of Margaret Tedder, two years old and Mnry Tedder, eight years of age when the two little girls fell irto a pool of water, last week on Whisnant farm where Mr. and Mrs. I). A. Tedder live just on the western outskirts of Shelby. The three little ones had gone down to the branch and were playing on the bank where they were getting clay out of which to make marbles. Margaret Tedder the youngest in. the trio was evidently reaching down the four-foot embankment when she lost her balance and plunged into the water. She was too young to make any effort to save herself. Seeing the seriousness of the situation her heroic nine-yearcld sister jumped in to rescue her but she, too, was powerless in the swift water. Annie Lou Whitlock became frantic. No other person was within 200 yards of where they were playing. She ran back and forth on the bank looking for a place to get down but found none. She saw a lai'ge iron pipe and it occurred to her to use the pipe to toe them out, but the pipe was too heavy for her tender strength to lift. She screamed at the top of her voice for help but her voice was too weak and childish to reach the ears of Mrs. Tedder who was in the kitchen some distance away from the scene of the near tragedy. As a last resort she leaped down the four foot embankment, lifted the two-year-old baby to the bank and assisted her older companion in getting out. The children were frightened almost to death, but neither was injured to any great extent. The Tedders and the neighbors are singing the praises of the little heroine, a sweet child who relates a hair-raising story of the incident.?Shelby News. The above story was taken from the Shelby (N. C.) News and is interesting to many Union people as the little heroine formerly lived in this citv. Regarding Moral Ideas Columbus, Ohio, April 18.?To determine whether modern moral ideas sueh as those of democracy and science are Chiistian it is necessary "to distinguish between the inner spirit ot the churches," said Prof. E. S. Ames of the University of Chicago in an address here today before the Congress of Disciples of Christ ( Christian Church). "Christianity is recognizing the moral oblgation of cooperation and experiments in this direction. The church founds schools and when the Kentucky legislature recently considered prohibiting the teaching of evolution many clergymen and other Christians rigorously opposed the measure." Speaking of the moral courage required by science, Prof. Ames said, "it required real bravery to follow the lead of the facts which showed that the earth is round and not flat, just as it demands conviction and fearlessness now to express the opinion that the present economic order is not just, that college football i< an overdeveloped and over commercialized sport, that cities are healthier than the conn try, that whales do not swallow Jonahs, and that the* doctrine of the Trinity is a non-essential ( f the Christian re lib';: n." Prof. Ames asked if the world was growing better or worse, continuing that "this question is t"> be approached in terms of modern .- jience, democracy and the hunger of this age. "Science requires moral courage, pat unco, d'.si.itciosUalness and rever once. Science has given men the courag to overcome rvny fears?the fea.* < f s.tpcrstuion, of tyrannous authority, of certain diseases, and of the doubts which lead to new experiments. The quacks and pretenders and the incompetents are exposed to intelligence tests. The world is still in the process of creation. "Democracy, too, has had its heroes and martyrs. The industrial revolution is still going on and it is achieving the liberation of man from many forms of drudgery. Ultmatcly it will free the masses from economic want if guided by the essential principle of love and good will. The basis of true democracy is respect for every human being and the extension to him ?u.. ..c t/i mi- n^iiin ui a 11121 il "The third characteristic of the ago is its self-c6nsciousness. This involves restlessness, criticism and more or less cynicism. Novels like 'Main Street' and 'If Winter Comes' show the confused groping after improvement." Are these morale ideals Christian? Jesus taught love for one's neighbor and that is a democratic idea. It is txthending the suffrage and changing the life of the laborer. The golden rillo iu i? f/inn/lot!/.? ' e * ... u luuiIUKblUH Millie (II gO(>(1 government. "It is not so obvious that the moral ideal of scientific thinking is equally Christian. But Christianity keeps repeatng the saying, 'Ye shall know the truth and the truth will make you free.' The acceptance of science requires the reversal of some ideas which have been very common in religion, for example, the depravity and original sinfulness of man. "The age has been restless under conflicting scientific and social theories but there are signs now of more constructive tendency. Wells' 'Outline of History' is a good symptom. Philosophers like John Dewey are beginning to feel that the age is moving, by means of the scientific and democratic spirit, toward the development of a new poetry, a new art and a new expression of religion." - ' '1 specia;. advertisements s W\NTED?>Vou'to know that I have purchased the Jack formerly owned by S.
