As the people of any nation have j^ood fortune and grow in numbers and prosperity, there is a tendency always for the devil and his works to X the upperhand. So long as the nation is poor and striving1 for success in commerce, agriculture or in the matter of the trades or even arts, the people -are mgrossed with all their hearts in the attainment of success, and they therefore leave meanness alone . Just a* soon as they have reached a measure of success and can afford to idle away their time while they enjoy all thai they want of the so-called good things of this world, the devil and his plans enter into their heads. An idle brain is the devil's workshop. 'This old saying is as true today as it ever was. Just as true now as it was m days long gone by when the truth of r. f T n VY't*. i < 1 ? 1 " ,w,tv,u jkocu ufjuu tut* mmas ot some vrum who used it and it came to stay with us as a truth, briefly expressed. So long as yoil can keep the young men and young women of any place interested in winning success for themselves along the lines which have been followed by their forbears, there is little, if any, danger that they will go astray from the straight paths of honor and <dvct?ncy. ~ Rut as the'devil's destructive forces to juill down the structure of good J ofeiirafftert&at has been built up, we arc thankful that there are good forces ativrayc at work too, even in the commurif&es of the most successful men ains) women. If it were not for these there is no telling how soon, even at this time, that this country might be plunged into an era of high and fast living., the equal of which has never foeeft known in human history. No matter how the tendency may be fr ^pHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII f MOV rwnwii \ V V WAV I?MMI tOMMr iHirM wmmrnrn lUMMT . ^///iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilii along: certain lines in the way of pleas ures on the primrose paths so easy t< follow, we have with us the preachers the Sunday School teachers, the bibl< classes and the numerous organiza tions and societies always working tc avoid the very results that the devi would like to bring about. As we grou^ in numbers, even ir small towns,\?<WTwell as in the large i aggregationsiof nm>*$nkind, it is more and more necessary that we should encourage these influences that tend tc keep things up to a high standard of morality and right living. Those whe are older and have the exeperiencc must undertake to restrain those whe are younger. Let the younger set entirely free with all of the things they would like to do. and another generation might bring down the penalty suffered by the fated cities of ancient times. We know what they got and we may rest assured that the same thing awaits us unless we follow the strict rules of good conduct and a higli standard of irood morals everywhere, o Any kind of a chance is better than no chance at all. Farmers who cannot make big prices for cotton and tobacco, must make what they can, >* ? >! -Q M IKI'HIA jf The streets ftr^ now sprinkled ill Conway every morning* before breakfast. It is a great relief. Paved streets would make it seventy-five per cent better. o Once we stop regular work it is hard to get back at it. It does not pay to stop but always keep up the pressure in one way or another. Work has never killed anybody and never will. Worry may, but work never. o There are doubtless few towns in this whole country having a railroad track down the center of the principal street. Conway enjoys the distinction of being a railroad town in the sense that its Main Street has to take care of the tracks. o Those who look upon their work as a means of accomplishment of the ends intended by the creator, a means of advancement so that men mav carry out the purpose of His creation, never pet disgusted with their calling or profession, but always find pleasure in doing their work better and better. o A vacation is often too costly, both as to money that has been saved from past labor and as to the time that is lost about it and no labor done. Wishing to take the vacation we often see that the man or woman often wants to quit work long before the time to get ready for it. Then when the vacation is over they want to neglect the farm or the store for still another week or more getting "unready."

The - people of Conway in that day and > time would have gladly moved their 1 houses away in older to iot a railroad pass through, liven so, things are i different now, and the Atlantic Coast Line should be the first to realize it. ?

So long as a man has the in centive to improve and better what he > does as time goes along, there is an abiding interest in the labor of his hands that will keep him going in the , face of any obstacles. o DEATH OF MRS.
