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.

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

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.

been on a "business spree' for the past
five years. Prices, up to recently,
were out of all sense of proportion i>>r
the value received.
The greatest cure for hard times,
get to work and keep money and
goods circulating.
"The year 1921 was regarded as a
pretty bad period for lots of concerns
in the East and Middle West," said
Mr. Wrigley. "For us it was the
best year in t'.w "0 years I haze been
in the chewing gum manufacturing industry.
"We are spending $>11,000 a day
this year to pa-h Wr.giu's Cue,.big

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.

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

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."
