Many of our friends are responding
to our appeal to renew their subscription.
As we are going to press a '
letter comes from Mr. H. L. Gault, an
old Union County boy, now located
in Dennison, Texas, enclosing a dollar
for a year's renewal.
Wo nnnrppinfp tho fV?ocr?
friends and the kind letters that so
frequently accompany the remittance.
We most heartily endorse the work
of the State Board of Health in the
the fight being waged against hookworm.
It is to be hoped that the public
will cooperate with the officers,
now that the efforts to eradicate this
disease in Union and Union county
are being put forth. It will be education
along lines that our people
sadly need information. There is
an enormous loss in sickness and
death that would be avoided if our
people were but a bit more informed.
Sanitation needs to he taught more
systematically, more thoroughly than
ever before. We will gladly give ,
publicity to any matters the commit- !
tee wishes to bring to the attention
of the public. (
O .
WILL HE FAIL US?
"This is not a day of triumph; it is 1
a day of dedication. Here muster,
not the forces of party, hut the forces
of humanity. Men's hearts wait upon I
us; men's lives hang in the balance; t
men's hopes call upon us to say what i
we will do. Who shall live up to the
great trust? Who dares fail to try? i
I summon all honest men, all pa- 1
triotic, all forward-looking men, to
my side. God helping me, I will not <
fail them, if they will hut counsel and
sustain me!" '
The above words constitute the 1
closing paragraph in the inaugural '
address of president Woodrow Wil- j
son. They reveal a heart that heats
with high hopes, is inspired with the
noble spirit of service and is big
enough to feel its limitations. Presi- s
dent Wilson goes into office with flat- ?
tering prospects, yet confronted by (
momentous issues. There was never t
a time in our history when there was s
greater need for wisdom. The spirit s
of unrest, of change, is in the air. Our
nation is coming into mature manhood.
The next few years will determine
what manner of nation we must 1
continue to be for a long time to <
come. We are at the parting of the *
ways. The present hour will largely (
determine whether we are to advance j
in human liberty, giving wider and
yet wider opportunities for the great
human mass or that many of the c
dreams of the founders of the nation
c
are never to be realized. We have c
rails for a broad-minded|, fearless,
lopeful and wise leader. It is imperative
that we emphasize moral manis
hood as never before. Our increas- ,p
ing wealth, our advancement in all
material lines makes this most neces- J<
sary. Prosperity is a dangerous ir
blessinir. Individuals and nations ^
have perished upon its rocks.
We confidently believe that in jr
Woodrow Wilson the nation has found d
itself and will be safely, honestly and
fearlessly led to yet higher attainments.
One cannot but feel the sincerity,
the honesty and the high reso- cl
lution of the man. He will be praised *
by friends and harshly criticised by ^'
enemies. But unless we have misjudged
him, he will not be turned M
aside from the straight path by t<
either.
May God guide us as a nation!
May he give to our President wisdom
strength and victory. y

Jonesville Dramatic Club. tl
n
The Jonesville Dramatic club pre- c
sented "Esmeralda" at the school tl
auditorium February 28th. The club ti
was under the management of Miss IV
Grace Farr, a graduate of Winthrop h
College and the Curry School of Ex- c
pression, Boston. Miss Farr took
the part of "Mr. Rogers", a North C
Carolina farmer, and showed talent n
and training. Her brogue and quaint b
speeches brought peals of laughter. ^
Miss Jennie Hartley as "Mrs. Rogers" n
was a veritable shrew and henpecked
her husband and browbeat her daugh- a
ter till the "worm turns." "Esmeral- e
da" their daughter, played by Miss C
Margaret Williams, was an example ?
of timid girlhood transformed into I
brave womanhood by love. Miss !
Frances Smith as "Dave Hardy" the 1
true lover, displayed nobility of c
character and unselfish devotion to
the woman he loved. u
Nora and Kate Desmond, played 0
by Misses Hanah Barton and Lois r
Alman, respectively, are two winsome I
artists in Paris who through their v
ingenuity and that of Mr. Estabrook, o
another artist, and their brother,
Jack, finally bring Dave and Esmer- J
alda together. v
While they are interested in the ?
Rogers' affairs, Nora and Esterbrook I
?impersonated by Miss Maude Gar- s
ner, became interested in each other
and have several interesting scenes. P
Miss Kathleen McWhirter, as Jack *
Desmond, the older brother, who had P
brought up Nora and Kate "by hand"
showed splendid acting. The Mar- e
quis de Montessin, a French adven- '
turer, trying to marrj Miss Rogers r
for her money, was ably portrayed
by Miss Elizabeth Littlejohn..
"The course of true love never runs
smiith", "All's well that ends well" ^
the truth of both these saying is finally
proved by this litle play. 0
The whole performance was a de- *
cided success. The proceeds amounted ?
lo over fifty dollars, which sum will c
be expended for equipment for the li- P
brary and class rooms of the Jones- s
ville High school. A

Preacher Pounded. ^
)ear Mr. Editor:
Last Saturday afternoon, Feb. 22,
ur good people of this famous Pea r
tidge section, principally members
f Mt. Joy and Phillipi Baptist
hurches, gave their pastor such a ?
ounding as makes his heart glad, his
pirit rejoice and his pantry over- j
ow. Country hams, fresh kid, flour, v
lorse feed, meal, hominy, pick- j
ugar, fruit, lard, chickens, cordwood,
as, fresh shoulder, butter, soda, soap, <
tarch, money and just about every- j
hing you can think of was brought
n by these substantial farmers and g
icrchants and of course it goes j.
without saying, that their good wives
1 JT ' ?
rhi fair uaugnters had a hand in
; all, and came with armsfull ^
f gifts and hearts full of pood will, t
7e spent several hours in jolly good v
sllowship before separating, and you ?
lay know how full our hearts were ?
nd how grateful we feel for this a
lanifestation of their love and ap- I
reciation. If they have religion in ^
roportion to the way they pounded ^
iieir pastor, there are better times d
head for this country. Our hearts a
re warm with gratitude and we
lean to endeavor to give better serice.
r
On a conservative estimate, seven/-five
dollars would barely cover the
alue of the pounding.
May they receive ten fold in all *
le good things of God. *

Washington, March 1.?By a vote f
f 244 to 95, the house today re- t
assed over President Taft's veto the

ntoxicating liquors into "dry"
tates. The senate passed it over the g
